          [C. Superintendent's Report]
          >> GOOD EVENING, TRUSTEES. 
          WE HAVE SOME CELEBRATIONS AND I'M SAD THAT JEANNETTE, THE JACKSON HOLE NEWS&GUIDE SCHOOL REPORTER, IS NOT PRESENT. 
          BUT I WANTED TO TAKE A MOMENT TO HIGHLIGHT JEANNETTE. 
          SHE HAS BEEN RECOGNIZED BY THE WYOMING PRESS ASSOCIATION AS FIRST PLACE IN EDUCATIONAL REPORTING. 
          WHEN JEANNETTE TOLD ME ABOUT HER BEING RECOGNIZED, SHE ALSO ADDED HOW GRATEFUL SHE IS TO CHARLOTTE REYNOLDS FOR PROVIDING SUCH INCREDIBLE ACCESS TO OUR PROGRAMMING AND SOME REALLY EXCITING THINGS THAT ARE HAPPENING IN OUR SCHOOLS. 
          YOU MIGHT HAVE NOTICED TODAY IN THE PAPER, THERE WAS AN ARTICLE ABOUT THE LOSE THE VUSE CAMPAIGN. 
          GOOD MORNING AMERICA CAME LAST WEEK AND DID A SPOTLIGHT ON THE LOSE THE VUSE CAMPAIGN THAT NURSE BETH FROM THE HIGH SCHOOL IS DOING WITH STUDENTS, AND THAT WILL AIR SOMETIME NEXT WEEK. 
          WE ARE REALLY GRATEFUL FOR JEANNETTE AND HER COVERAGE AND THE OPPORTUNITY TO HIGHLIGHT SO MANY OF THE WONDERFUL THINGS. 
          WE HAVE A NOTE AND A TOKEN OF APPRECIATION FOR JEANNETTE, BUT WE WANTED TO TAKE A MOMENT TO MAKE SURE YOU'RE AWARE OF JEANNETTE'S ACCOMPLISHMENT. 
          THANK YOU, JEANNETTE. I ASSUME SHE'S LISTENING. 
          THAT'S IT FOR THE CELEBRATIONS THIS EVENING. 
          THE NEXT ITEM FOR THE SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT IS THE DISTRICT LEADERS' REPORT. 
          IF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS, WE'D BE HAPPY TO ANSWER THEM. 
          >> TRUSTEE GINGERY? 
          >> GO AHEAD, BETSY. 
          >> TRUSTEE CARLIN? 
          >> I JUST HAD A QUESTION, AND I HAD A QUESTION OR WROTE IT DOWN AND THEN I THINK IT WAS ANSWERED LATER ON. 
          BUT JUST FOR CLARIFICATION, WHEN SOMEBODY IS IDENTIFIED AS A NEWCOMER, HOW LONG DO YOU REMAIN A NEWCOMER? WHAT IS THAT PROCESS? 
          >> THANK YOU. ONE MOMENT. 
          >> SANDRA, ARE YOU COMFORTABLE ANSWERING? 
          >> SURE. 
          >> [INAUDIBLE] I'M GOING TO ASK SANDRA SANDERSON, OUR EXPERT HERE, TO EXPLAIN THAT PROCESS. 
          >> HI. GOOD NIGHT. IT'S NICE TO SEE YOU ALL. 
          FOR THE STATE LAW, NEWCOMERS ARE ALL STUDENTS THAT ENROLLED IN THE COUNTRY IN A PERIOD OF THE FIRST YEAR. 
          WE JUST ARE DEVELOPING RIGHT NOW AND CREATING A DIFFERENT CRITERIA BECAUSE WE WANT SOME OF THOSE STUDENTS TO REACH A DIFFERENT LEVEL IN THEIR ACCESS SCORES AND THEIR READING SCORES. 
          WE ARE DISCUSSING THIS THIS YEAR AND WE MOVED THE LINE A LITTLE BIT HIGHER. 
          STUDENTS CAN BE CONSIDERED A NEWCOMER FOR TWO OR THREE YEARS, DEPENDING ON THEIR PROGRESS ON THEIR ASSESSMENT IN ENGLISH OR SPANISH READING. 
          >> THANK YOU. 
          >> DID I ANSWER YOUR QUESTION? 
          >> YEAH. 
          >> WHILE YOU ARE UP THERE, IF I MAY? 
          >> SURE. 
          >> THIS SEEMS TO BE A RECURRING QUESTION EVERY YEAR WHEN WE LOOK AT GRADUATION RATES. 
          IT'S MENTIONED THAT WE HAD 13 NEWCOMERS IN JANUARY, BUT WE'VE HAD FIVE PREVIOUSLY ENROLLED HAVE LEFT THEIR DISTRICT. 
          DID THEY UNENROLL OFFICIALLY OR ARE THEY COUNTED AS DROPS? YOU MAY NOT KNOW THAT ANSWER, IT'S A LITTLE MORE TECHNICAL. 
          >> NO. I THINK THAT THEY'VE JUST MOVED OUT. 
          THEY UNENROLLED WITH JUST A DIFFERENT PLACE. 
          >> ARE WE ABLE TO GET THE PROPER DOCUMENTATION? 
          >> YES. 
          >> GREAT, THANK YOU. 
          >> THANK YOU. 
          >> TRUSTEE GINGERY. 
          >> KELLY LOCKHART ALWAYS TELLS ME I'M A NEWCOMER BECAUSE WE CAME IN '82. 
          [LAUGHTER] I HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT THE SURVEY, 
          [00:05:04]
ABOUT, I CAN'T REMEMBER HOW YOU GUYS CALL IT, K12 OR ALBERT. 
          >> K12ITC. 
          >> I SAW THAT THE RESULTS CAME IN. 
          MY INTERPRETATION WAS PEOPLE WANTED TO MOVE ON TO SOMETHING DIFFERENT. 
          I WAS JUST CURIOUS WHAT'S THE NEXT STEP IN THAT PROCESS. 
          >> RIGHT NOW, AN RFP IS OUT FOR SERVICES. 
          WE'LL START RECEIVING RESPONSES FROM THAT AND THEN WE'LL BE ABLE TO MAKE A DECISION ABOUT WHAT WE DO NEXT. 
          I THINK THE SURVEY WAS HELPFUL SO WE COULD ALSO IDENTIFY WHAT ARE THE AREAS OF CONCERN AND HOW DO WE RESOLVE THEM. 
          SOME OF THE CHALLENGES, I THINK IT WOULD BE FANTASTIC IF WE COULD AFFORD TO HAVE OUR OWN SYSTEM. 
          BUT HIRING NETWORK ENGINEERS AND PURCHASING ALL THE EQUIPMENT, IT'S SUCH A COST-PROHIBITIVE FACTOR. 
          I THINK WE'LL JUST HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE, BUT WE'RE WAITING FOR THE RFP RESPONDENTS TO COME IN. 
          >> HOWARD, DO YOU HAVE ANY OTHER UPDATES YOU WANT TO ADD? 
          >> SURE. GET IT FROM HERE. [LAUGHTER] 
          >> NICE TRY. 
          >> [INAUDIBLE] [LAUGHTER] 
          >> YES. THANK YOU. HOWARD MCINTYRE, TETON COUNTY SCHOOL DISTRICT TECH MANAGER. 
          CURRENTLY, WE'RE APPLYING FOR GOVERNMENT MONEY UNDER A GRANT CALLED E-RATE, WHICH IS A FEDERAL PROGRAM NETWORKS FOR SCHOOLS AND LIBRARIES. 
          THAT'S THE PROCESS THAT SUPERINTENDENT CHAPMAN WAS TALKING ABOUT, THE RFP PROCESS. 
          THE DEADLINE FOR THAT END OF THIS MONTH, THE 28TH OF FEBRUARY. 
          WE WORK WITH CONSULTANTS TO GET THAT PAPERWORK AND ALL FILED IN. 
          ONCE THAT'S FILED IN, THERE'S A 28-DAY WINDOW WHEN THAT REQUEST FOR SERVICES IS PUT OUT THERE, AND THEN WE HAVE VENDORS RESPOND TO THAT. 
          OBVIOUSLY, K12ITC IS GOING TO BID FOR THAT. 
          THERE'S A COUPLE OTHER VENDORS THAT MAY BID FOR THAT ALSO. [OVERLAPPING] 
          >> MR. CHAIRMAN? 
          >> YEAH. 
          >> HOWARD, JUST BEHIND YOU IS YOUR REPORT. 
          FOR EXAMPLE, IT SAYS THERE, THE STAFF EXPRESSED SIGNIFICANT FRUSTRATION OVER CHROME BROWSER NOT WORKING PROPERLY. 
          THAT WENT ON FOR MONTHS WHERE NO ONE COULD GET CHROME TO WORK. 
          I GET THAT WE MIGHT GO WITH A NEW COMPANY, BUT WHAT ARE WE DOING TO FIX A LOT OF THOSE ISSUES THAT K12ITC SEEMS TO HAVE? IS IT SOMETHING WE NEED TO SIT DOWN WITH THEM AND SAY, HEY, YOU JUST NEED TO DO A BETTER JOB. 
          THEN I GUESS MY SECOND QUESTION IS IF WE GO WITH A DIFFERENT COMPANY, I REMEMBER, MY MEMORY MIGHT BE WRONG, THEY PUT A LOT OF THEIR OWN INFRASTRUCTURE IN. 
          DO THEY COME AND RIP ALL THAT OUT? HOW DOES THAT WORK? 
          >> THE FIRST FIRST QUESTION WAS: WHAT K12ITC IS DOING IS TWO PARTS? THERE'S A NETWORK COMPONENT WHICH WE'RE BENDING OUT THROUGH THE E RATE PROGRAM AND THEN THERE'S DEVICE MANAGEMENT AND END USER SUPPORT WHICH IS THE SECOND HALF OF THEIR OFFERING. 
          THE PART THAT SEEMS TO BE WORKING PRETTY WELL NOW IS THAT FIRST PART OF THE NETWORK INFRASTRUCTURE THAT IRONED OUT THE WRINKLES THERE. 
          BUT IF WE WERE TO RENEW OUR CONTRACT WITH THEM FOR ANOTHER FIVE YEARS, THEY WOULD IN FACT PULL ALL OF THAT EQUIPMENT OUT AND PUT NEW IN. 
          IF WE WERE TO GO WITH ANOTHER VENDOR, IT'D BE THE SAME PROCESS. 
          WE'RE LOOKING AT THAT EITHER WAY, WHETHER WE STAY WITH K12 OR NOT. 
          THEN THE OTHER PART, LIKE THE CHROME BROWSER AND THE DEVICE MANAGEMENT AND END USER SUPPORT, THAT IS A VERY DIFFICULT THING THAT THEY'RE TRYING TO DO. 
          TECH TAKES A LOT OF CLOSE COORDINATION IN ORDER TO GET IT RIGHT. 
          IT'S JUST A VERY CHALLENGING SITUATION SOMETIMES TO GET THINGS DIALED IN. 
          >> CHAIRMAN, I DON'T WANT TO GET INTO THE LEASE, BUT IS AN OPTION. 
          I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU. 
          I DON'T THINK WE HAVE THE MONEY OR THE ABILITY TO HIRE PEOPLE TO BE DOING THE NETWORK PART. 
          I LIKE THE PART THAT WE HAVE A COMPANY DOING THE NETWORK. 
          I'M JUST WONDERING IF YOUR FOLKS, IF WE GOT YOU A FEW MORE PEOPLE OR SOMETHING, COULD YOU ALL DO THE END USER MANAGEMENT OF THE ACTUAL PRODUCTS? 
          >> NO. 
          >> BECAUSE THAT SEEMS TO BE THE PROBLEM. 
          PEOPLE CALL. 
          [00:10:02]
THEY PUT IN YOUR HELP. 
          I'M JUST READING OFF YOUR OWN REPORT. 
          YOU THINK PUT IN THE HELP TICKET AND YOU NEVER HEAR IT BACK FROM THEM EVER AGAIN. 
          AND THAT'S PROBLEMATIC THAT SOMEONE CAN'T USE THEIR IPAD OR THE COMPUTER OR WHATEVER IT IS. 
          I'M JUST WONDERING IF WE STICK WITH ONE COMPANY TO DO THE NETWORKING AND THEN WE FIND A NEW SOLUTION FOR HOW TO FIX PRODUCTS IN END USER PROBLEMS. 
          >> IN SCHOOL DISTRICTS AROUND WYOMING, THEY DO THIS THING WHERE THEY WOULD SPLIT UP THOSE TWO COMPONENTS AND HAVE ON SITE FOR THE END USER SUPPORT, DEVICE MANAGEMENT, AND THEN NETWORK SUPPORT FROM A THIRD PARTY. 
          I'D AGREE THAT INFRASTRUCTURE, NETWORK, ALL OF THAT YOU REALLY DO NEED SOMEONE TO CALL. 
          NETWORK ENGINEERS ARE A LITTLE BIT FEW AND FAR BETWEEN, ESPECIALLY IN RURAL AREAS. 
          IT DOES MAKE SENSE TO FARM THAT OUT BECAUSE IT CAN BE DONE REMOTELY, IT CAN'T BE MANAGED, AND THERE'S VISIBILITY ON THOSE SYSTEMS. THE CHALLENGES, THE FACE TO FACE INTERACTIONS WHERE YOU'RE TRYING TO GET SOMETHING FIXED AND AND DOING THAT OVER EMAIL OR HELP DESK. 
          >> I APPRECIATE. THANK YOU. 
          >> YES. 
          >> MR. CHAIR? 
          >> YES. 
          >> I MAY ASK QUESTIONS. 
          >> SURE. HOWARD. 
          >> THANK YOU. IT'S TOUGH. 
          WHEN THEY WORK WE LOVE THEM. 
          WHEN THEY DON'T, WE HATE THEM. 
          THEN GOING TO WHAT TRUSTEE GINGER IS TALKING ABOUT. TWO QUESTIONS. 
          DO WE NEED TO WAIT OUR NEW CONTRACT TO HOLD K12ITC WITH A HIGHER LEVEL OF ACCOUNTABILITY. 
          THE PEOPLE WHO RELY ON THESE DEVICES. 
          YOU KNOW THEY'RE GOING TO WORK WHEN THEY'RE EXPECTING THEM TO. 
          OR AT LEAST WHEN THEY'RE SUBMITTING A TICKET TO RECEIVE A RESPONSE. 
          OR IS THERE SOMEBODY IN YOUR DEPARTMENT THAT SEES, HEY, YOU GUYS HAVE TICKETS THAT ARE OPEN MORE THAN TWO DAYS. 
          TO THEM YOU HAVE SOMEBODY IN YOUR DEPARTMENT, OR YOU COULD CALL AND SAY, HEY, K12, THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. 
          IT'S NOT WHAT'S IN THE TERMS OF THE AGREEMENT AND THIS NEEDS TO GET RESOLVED NOW. 
          >> THAT'S A GREAT QUESTION. 
          THERE ARE SOME THINGS IN TECH THAT ARE QUICK FIXES AND THAT CAN BE HANDLED BY K12ITC WITHOUT MUCH PROBLEM OVER THE PHONE. 
          THERE ARE SOME THINGS THAT ARE MORE COMPLICATED AND REQUIRE REALLY SOMEONE ON SITE, SOMEONE THAT'S FAMILIAR WITH THE ENVIRONMENT, FAMILIAR WITH THE TEACHER, UNDERSTANDS WHAT THEY'RE SAYING, WHAT THEY'RE GETTING AT, AND CAN HANDLE THAT SITUATION MORE EFFICIENTLY. 
          WHEN THE ONLY OPTION IS TO CALL AN 800 NUMBER, THAT BECOMES DIFFICULT AND THEN WHEN THOSE TICKETS GET DRAWN OUT, THEY SOMETIMES DO GET PUSHED BACK TO THE LOCAL TEXT. 
          WE DID LOSE A COUPLE TEXTS WHEN K12ITC CAME IN, LIKE THREE OF OUR TECHS HAVE LEFT SINCE WE HAD K12. 
          WE ARE DOWN TO A SMALLER STAFF. 
          WE ARE IN A DIFFICULT POSITIONS IN SOME WAYS BECAUSE WE HAVE A SMALL NUMBER OF PEOPLE AND K12ITC IS REALLY ON CONTRACT TO HANDLE THESE ISSUES, BUT A LOT OF THOSE DO COME BACK OUR WAY JUST BECAUSE IT'S EASIER FOR US TO DEAL WITH IT. 
          I DON'T KNOW IF THAT ANSWERS THE QUESTION, BUT AS FAR AS HOLDING THEIR FEET TO THE FIRE, REALLY THE MOST RESPONSIVE THAT THEY'VE BEEN OR THE MOST ADAPTABLE THAT THEY'VE BEEN WORKING WITH US IN THE CONTRACT IS RIGHT AROUND THE RENEWAL TIME OF THE CONTRACT. 
          WE HAVE LOTS OF SUGGESTIONS. 
          I HAVE A SPEECH THAT I GIVE, A COUPLE OF SPEECHES, BUT IT'S VERY DIFFICULT FOR THEM IN THEIR BUSINESS MODEL TO DO A CUSTOM SOLUTION, WHICH IS WHAT WE REQUIRE IN A LOT OF CASES. 
          FOR THEM, EFFICIENCY MEANS SAME THING FOR ALL SCHOOL DISTRICT AND THAT DOESN'T ALWAYS WORK FOR WHAT WE'VE GOT GOING ON HERE. 
          FOR EXAMPLE, WE HAVE A MAC DEPLOYMENT WITH IPADS AND MACS ALMOST EXCLUSIVELY, JUST 99% ON THOSE PLATFORMS. THAT'S NOT THE CASE EVERYWHERE ELSE IN OUR OTHER CUSTOMER BASE. 
          IT REQUIRES A LITTLE MORE EXPERTISE IN THAT DEPARTMENT, WHICH ISN'T ALWAYS EFFICIENT FOR THEM BECAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE A BUNCH OF CUSTOMERS THAT ARE RUNNING THAT SET UP. 
          [00:15:02]
THAT MAKES SENSE. I DON'T KNOW IF THAT ANSWERS YOUR QUESTION. 
          >> IT DOES. FOR ME, ACCOUNTABILITY IS IMPORTANT, ESPECIALLY WHEN SO MANY OF OUR STAFF RELY ON THESE DEVICES AND TO HEAR THAT THEY'RE REALLY RESPONSIVE WHEN IT COMES TIME FOR THE CONTRACT RENEWAL AND YES, DO WE WANT MAYBE FOR THE NETWORK SIDE OF THINGS, IT'S GREAT. 
          MAYBE THERE'S I DON'T KNOW IF THERE'S SOMEBODY ELSE THAT COULD BE MORE RESPONSIVE AND ENSURE THAT WE HAVE MORE UP TIME THAN DOWNTIME. 
          TO RELIEVE THE ISSUE OF HOW MUCH TIME STAFF HAS TO SPEND ON THE PHONE, IT'S JUST AS EASY AS SWITCH A DEVICE. 
          HERE'S YOUR NEW DEVICE, READY TO GO. 
          THIS OTHER ONE, WE'RE GOING TO GET THIS ONE TAKEN CARE OF ON THE BACK END. 
          BUT SOMEHOW MAYBE IN THE CONTRACT IS THEIR PAYMENT CAN BE ACCOUNTABLE WHEN THEIR TICKETS GO FOR TOO LONG THAT IT REDUCES THE NEXT MONTH OF WHAT THEY'RE GOING TO GET PAID. 
          SOUNDS LIKE THEY'VE OVER PROMISED AND UNDER DELIVERED ON SOME OF THIS STUFF WHICH IS UNFORTUNATE FOR A LARGE COMPANY LIKE THAT. 
          JUST MY OPINION. THANK YOU. I APPRECIATE IT. 
          IT IS NOT EASY. YOU'RE DEALING WITH A COMPUTER, NOT A PERSON. 
          >> SURE. WELL, YES. 
          [LAUGHTER] 
          >> [INAUDIBLE] 
          >> I JUST THOUGHT IT WAS IMPRESSIVE THAT OF THE 98 PEOPLE THAT RESPONDED, THEIR SOLUTION WAS FOR YOU TO HANDLE IT. 
          I LIKE THAT THEY TRUST YOU. 
          I THOUGHT THAT WAS A VERY BIG VOTE OF CONFIDENCE THAT THE STAFF APPRECIATE YOU AND YOUR STAFF AND THAT'S WHERE THEY WANTED TO GO. 
          I DON'T THINK THAT'S FEASIBLE BECAUSE I THINK YOU'VE EXPLAINED WELL THAT, HEY, NETWORK MANAGEMENT NEEDS TO BE A BIG COMPANY. 
          BUT I APPRECIATED THAT THE STAFF LIKE YOU AND YOUR STAFF, THAT'S WHERE THEY WANTED IT TO GO. 
          I'M JUST CURIOUS. I DON'T WANT TO PICK ON THE SPOT. 
          WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE US TO DO? WHAT DO YOU THINK [INAUDIBLE] FORWARD SHOULD BE. 
          WE JUST READ UP WITH THESE GUYS AND FIND A NEW COMPANY. 
          IT'S YOUR DEPARTMENT. 
          WHAT CAN WE DO TO HELP YOU? 
          >> I THINK ABOUT WHAT THE IDEAL SCHOOL DISTRICT SCENARIO LOOK LIKE. 
          I THINK I SAID THAT THAT NETWORK COMPONENT, ONCE YOU GET THOSE WRINKLES IRONED OUT, IT'S GOOD FOR QUITE A WHILE. 
          YOU CAN PROBABLY GO ON THAT EQUIPMENT BY 10 YEARS ON THAT EQUIPMENT AND GET GOOD UP TIME FROM YOUR NETWORK. 
          IN TERMS OF A END USER SUPPORT DEVICE MANAGEMENT, I THINK K12ITC IS NOT QUITE THERE YET IN TERMS OF SUPPORTING WHAT WE HAVE GOING ON HERE. 
          MAY BE FINE FOR A LOT OF SCHOOL DISTRICTS. 
          THAT SAID THERE ARE SOME PEOPLE THAT ARE BIG FANS OF K12ITC. 
          I THINK IF YOU LOOKED AT THE MAJORITY OF THE RESPONSES, THEY DID LEAN TOWARDS THE LOCAL TEXT. 
          ALL OF OUR LOCAL TEXTS THAT WE HAVE NOW, WITH ME BEING AN EXCEPTION, ARE NEW AND CAME IN WHILE UNDER K12ITC CONTRACT. 
          GOOD, HAPPY, CUSTOMER FRIENDLY, SERVICEABLE DISPOSITION. 
          IN MY OPINION, THAT'S NOT EASY TO FIND IN THE WORLD OF TECH PEOPLE. 
          I THINK WE ARE IN A OKAY. 
          POSITION TO WHICHEVER WAY WE END UP GOING, THAT WE COULD HANDLE WHATEVER THE BOARD DECIDES. 
          BUT YEAH, I THINK THE SCHOOL DISTRICT THAT WE HAVE NOW, THE SETUP THAT WE HAVE NOW, IS NOT THE SAME ONE THAT WE HAD WHEN WE BROUGHT 12 BACK IN 2019. 
          THANK YOU. 
          I SEE SAM. 
          ANOTHER QUESTION. 
          NO PROBLEM. 
          NO IDEA GOING DOWN THIS RABBIT HOLE. 
          [LAUGHTER] YOU MENTIONED THAT MOST SCHOOL DISTRICTS THEY WORK WITH DON'T USE THE APPLE MAC SYSTEM. 
          IS THAT PART OF THE ISSUE? IT IS, YEAH, IT IS. 
          BECAUSE WHEN WE FIRST SIGNED ON WITH THEM, THEY HAD A SMALLER NUMBER OF CUSTOMERS AND WE WERE IN THIS ONE OFF DISTRICT RUNNING MACS AND IPADS FOR OUR STUDENTS. 
          THAT WAS IN 2019. 
          2020 HAPPENED THEN EVERYBODY, ONE TO ONE. 
          NOW, A LOT OF SCHOOL DISTRICTS DO USE LIKE IPADS AND MACBOOKS, BUT A DON'T OF THEM USE, SAY, CHROME BOOKS FOR STUDENTS, WINDOWS COMPUTERS FOR STAFF, SOMETHING LIKE THAT. 
          IT JUST VARIES QUITE A BIT OUT THERE. 
          [00:20:03]
I THINK A LOT OF THEIR DEEPER EXPERTISE IS IN THOSE OTHER AREAS. 
          IF WE WANT SOMETHING FIXED, THERE'S MAYBE JUST ONE GUY THAT COULD FIX IT. 
          I GUESS MY QUESTION IS ANOTHER, LIKE SHOULD WE SWITCH TO THOSE OTHER. 
          THERE WAS SOMETHING TAG RIGHT [LAUGHTER] [OVERLAPPING] THERE SHAKING. 
          I THINK I'M PURSING MYSELF. 
          YEAH. I MEAN, OBVIOUSLY WE RUN BOTH PLATFORMS, BUT BUT YEAH. 
          AS FAR AS YOU KNOW, THE LARGER NUMBERS OF STUDENTS DEVICES JUST JUST VARIES. 
          MR. CHAIR. 
          YES. 
          HOWARD MR. MCINTYRE, I'M CURIOUS IF WITH APPLE SO THEY ARE ALL ABOUT SCHOOLS GOING BACK TO TRUSTEES COMMENT, I WONDER IF THEY WOULD RECOMMEND PREFERRED VENDORS TO SUPPORT SCHOOLS WHO WOULD SPECIALIZE IN THEIR PRODUCTS. 
          TO ASK THE WINDOWS PERSON TO SUPPORT A MUC PRODUCT AND VICE VERSA, IS LIKE ASKING ME TO DRIVE A SEMI TRUCK WHO DRIVES AN AUTOMATIC VEHICLE I DON'T HAVE ANY OF THAT TRAINING AND KNOWLEDGE. 
          IT'S QUITE DIFFERENT. 
          I'M WONDERING IF THERE'S THAT RESOURCE AS WE BEGIN THE PROCESS TO DISCOVER WHAT OUR OPTIONS ARE. 
          YEAH, THAT'S A GREAT QUESTION. 
          WE CAN LOOK INTO OPTIONS ALONG THOSE LINES. 
          THERE ARE LARGER COMPANIES THAT DO MORE GLOBAL TYPE IT CONTRACTING. 
          THAT MAY HAVE A DEEPER BENCH WHEN IT COMES TO MACS. 
          BUT TYPICALLY, TO BE HONEST, WE KIND OF HAVE ALL THAT. 
          AS FAR AS THE APPLE STUFF, IT'S NOT THAT DIFFICULT TO MANAGE. 
          IT'S JUST MORE OF A NICHE I THINK THAT'S WHY I WAS HIRED IN 2007 TO TAKE OVER THE APPLE WORK BECAUSE THE OTHER TEXT DIDN'T WANT TO DO IT. 
          THAT'S BASICALLY MY THING YOU KNOW, THE TEXT WE HAVE NOW ARE DO A PRETTY GOOD JOB AND HAVE BEEN PROBABLY HANDLE IT IF THAT HELPS, BUT WE COULD DEFINITELY LOOK INTO THAT. 
          THIS IS A FUN RABBIT. 
          YOU HAVE ANYTHING ELSE? THANKS. 
          YOU'RE WELCOME. 
          THANK YOU. 
          WHAT'S NEXT? [OVERLAPPING] [NOISE] THE CONVERSATION? ALL OF YOU? YEAH. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? I DO HAVE ONE. 
          OKAY. 
          SEE OVER THERE, PRINCIPAL, I WANT TO KNOW GET A LITTLE DEEPER INTO HOSPITALITY AND TOURISM CLASS AT SUMMIT HIGH SCHOOL. 
          THANK YOU FOR ASKING QUESTIONS GARLIC. 
          REALLY EXCITED MADERA IS OUR HOSPITALITY TEACHER AT BOTH SUMMIT AND HIGH SCHOOL WE ARE REALLY EXCITED THAT OUR FIRST EVENT THAT OUR CREW ARE GOING TO BE HOSTING IS OUR PARENT TEACHER CONFERENCE NIGHT. 
          WE HAVE A REALLY NICE DIVERSE GROUP OF STUDENTS AND THEY ALL WANT THEIR OWN FOOD THAT REPRESENTS THE COUNTRIES THAT THEY COME FROM OR THEIR PARENTS HAVE COME FROM. 
          AMY DOES A GREAT JOB OF EXPLORING WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE, WHAT THE FOODS ARE LIKE. 
          NOW I HAVE TO GO BUY SOME DECORATIONS AND SOME TABLECLOTHS. 
          ALL OF THESE OTHER THINGS WHICH I'M REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO DOING. 
          BESIDES THE EVENT PLANNING, WHAT OTHER THINGS ARE THESE STUDENTS LEARNING? THEY'RE LEARNING FIRST OF ALL, KIND OF WHAT IT MEANS TO PLAN AN EVENT THEN WHAT CUSTOMER SERVICES THEY'RE WORKING ON THEIR SHOPPING LIST AND HOW TO IDENTIFY VENDORS, AND THIS IS THEIR FIRST EVENT THEY'RE REALLY STILL IN THE PROCESS OF GOING TO NEGOTIATE AND DEVELOP A MENU AND PREDICT HOW MUCH FOOD FOR 60 PEOPLE. 
          THEN AFTER THAT, THIS COMING WEEK, CWC IS COMING IN FROM THE BRIDGE PROGRAM, WHICH HAS BEEN A PROGRAM WE'VE BEEN PARTICIPATING AT THE HIGH SCHOOL WITH WE'LL BE SPEAKING ABOUT OPPORTUNITIES THAT CWC CAN PROVIDE TO SUPPORT STUDENTS WHO WANT TO CONTINUE WITH THEIR CULINARY AND HOSPITALITY VENTURES HERE LOCALLY THEN THE NEXT EVENT IS TO BE DETERMINED. 
          BUT I DEFINITELY PREDICT THAT AT GRADUATION, WHICH I KNOW YOU GUYS ARE ALL INVITED TO AND LOVE TO CELEBRATE THAT. 
          WE WILL ALSO HAVE SOME GREAT TREATS FROM THEM AS WELL. 
          BUT WE'RE, THEY'RE ALSO GOING TO BE DOING SOME SITE VISITS TO DIFFERENT HOSPITALITY ORGANIZATIONS AS WELL AS CHAMBER OF COMMERCE. 
          [00:25:06]
HAVE YOU DEVELOPED? OR HOW CAN WE HELP YOU DEVELOP POTENTIAL INTERNSHIP OPPORTUNITIES FOR THESE KIDS TO GO OUT ON SITE AND REALLY LEARN? THAT IS A MILLION DOLLAR QUESTION AND THANK YOU FOR ASKING. 
          I THINK WE'RE REALLY EXCITED ABOUT LOOKING AT WORK BASED LEARNING AND IDENTIFYING THOSE INTERNSHIPS I'M HAPPY TO HAVE A MADERA IDENTIFY SOME KEY AREAS THAT SHE THINK OUR STUDENTS WOULD BE INTERESTED IN, AND I'M HAPPY TO SHARE THAT WITH YOU. 
          I THINK WE ALL HAVE VARIOUS DEGREES OF LIVING HERE, EXPOSURE TO THE HOSPITALITY INDUSTRY. 
          I THINK WE COULD ALL LEAN IN AND HELP. 
          THAT WOULD BE GREAT. YEAH, REALLY EXCITED. 
          IT'S A GREAT LAUNCH AND IT'S A LOT OF FUN AND THE KIDS ARE REALLY EXCITED. 
          GREAT. 
          THANK YOU. 
          YES. HOW DID THAT PARIS OR ONE CLASS? STATE YOUR SCHOOL. 
          ONE AT HIGH SCHOOL CLASS AND JUST EVERYONE'S GOING OVER THERE? NO, THERE'S ONE CLASS AT MY SCHOOL AND THREE CLASSES AT THE HIGH SCHOOL. 
          AMY GOES BACK AND FORTH. 
          YEAH. WE ALSO HAVE A SHARED ART TEACHER, WHICH DOES THE SAME THING. 
          WITH THAT, WE HAVE MULTIPLE OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE HOSPITALITY CLASS WE OFFERED, AND SOMETIMES OUR STUDENTS, BECAUSE OF THEIR SCHEDULES, WANTED TO TAKE A CLASS AT THE HIGH SCHOOL, AND SOMETIMES HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS. 
          HOW DID THAT WORK FOR YOU? BECAUSE I KNOW SHE CAME IN THAT YEAR. 
          HOW DID KIDS SIGN UP FOR THE CLASS? THEY DIDN'T KNOW. 
          THERE WAS A SURVEY SENT OUT TO ALL THE STUDENTS AT THE HIGH SCHOOL, AS WELL AS WE JUST WALKED DOWN THE HALLWAY EVERY STUDENT SHOULDER FOR THOSE STUDENTS WHO WERE INTERESTED IN A DIFFERENT CTE COURSE, THEY SIGNED UP AND WE ENROLL THEM AND IT WILL BE A SEMESTER. 
          I WAS A LITTLE WORRIED AT SCHOLAR, I WAS LIKE, I'M REALLY GOING TO GET THAT CLASS BECAUSE WHEN THEY SIGNED UP THEY DIDN'T KNOW THAT CLASS IS GOING TO BE AVAILABLE. 
          YEAH I THINK IT'S BEEN A REALLY GREAT SOMETIMES STUDENTS JUST ARE LIKE, WANT TO EXPLORE SOMETHING DIFFERENT, OR IT'S NOT A FIT, OR THINGS CHANGE. 
          NO IT'S GREAT WE GOT AMY TO DO THAT. 
          WE'RE VERY LUCKY. 
          IT'S GREAT. 
          THANK YOU. I WILL DEFINITELY BE SENT OUT TO YOU. 
          RIGHT. THANKS. 
          ANYTHING ELSE ON THE? DISTRICT LEADERS REPORT OR TRUST? [OVERLAPPING] I WANT TO GIVE A BIG SHOUT OUT. 
          EVERYBODY THAT WAS INVOLVED IN THE WINTER SPORTS. 
          FOR ALL THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS TO SEE, SOME STUDENTS HAD THEIR FIRST EXPERIENCE OF BEING ABLE TO EXPERIENCE WINTER SPORTS. 
          IT'S JUST SO HEARTWARMING THAT WE CAN OFFER THAT IT TAKES A LOT OF COORDINATION ON SO MANY DIFFERENT DEPARTMENTS. 
          ALSO THANK YOU TO THE RESORTS THAT OFFER SUCH A GENEROUS GIFT TO OUR STUDENTS AS WELL. 
          BIG, THANK YOU ON ALL PARTS. 
          THERE'S PAYMENTS GIFT. 
          THERE'S SOME MONEY TO BEING EXCHANGED. 
          I GET A FREE PASS. 
          ANYTHING ELSE? OR WE PAY FOR IT. 
          WE PAY SO MUCH. 
          DR. CHAPMAN. 
          >> IT'S ACTUALLY DR. CHRIS. 
          >> DR. CHRIS? 
          >> THE EDUCATIONAL MOMENT. 
          >> THANKS FOR HAVING ME TRUSTEES. 
          GOING TO SWITCH EARS A LITTLE BIT WITH YOU. 
          IF YOU CAN TAKE A MOMENT AND LOOK AT THE HANDOUT THAT I GAVE YOU. 
          IT'S TRUSTEES RIGHT THERE ON THE GAVEL. 
          I JUST WANT TO GIVE YOU ONE MINUTE TO READ THAT TO YOURSELF AND THEN I'LL GO THROUGH A LITTLE BIT OF AN EXPLANATION. 
          STUDENTS AS WELL. 
          I ASK YOU TO READ THROUGH THAT AND TONIGHT OBVIOUSLY TIME DOESN'T PERMIT TO SHARE. 
          BUT I WOULD LIKE YOU TO BE THINKING ABOUT THAT PROMPT AS I GO THROUGH SOME POINTS TO SHARE TONIGHT. 
          I HAVE OVERSHARED IN THIS DOCUMENT WHAT'S NEW, BUT I WANTED YOU TO HAVE IT AT YOUR FINGERTIPS IF YOU HAD CLARIFICATION ISSUES THAT CAME UP AFTER TONIGHT TO LOOK AT. 
          AS YOU MAY KNOW, WE HAVE A LOT HAPPENING IN OUR DISTRICT AROUND ASSESSMENT REVIEW, ESPECIALLY AT THE SECONDARY LEVEL AND HOW WE ASSESS STUDENTS. 
          ONE OF THE FOCUS AREAS OF MANY, BUT ONE IS REALLY TRYING TO DESIGN ASSESSMENTS TO ALLOW US TO BETTER UNDERSTAND WHAT STUDENTS KNOW. 
          [00:30:04]
IT'S THAT SIMPLE. HOW DO WE DO THAT? WE HAVE TO LOOK AT OTHER WAYS TO UNDERSTAND WHAT THEY KNOW THAT NOT ONLY INCLUDES THE STANDARDIZED TESTS THAT ARE PART OF OUR CULTURE IN SCHOOLS, BUT ALSO SOME OTHER ITEMS THAT WE FEEL LIKE GIVES STUDENTS A LOT MORE OWNERSHIP, VOICE, AND THE ABILITY TO ARTICULATE EXACTLY THEIR KNOWLEDGE BEYOND A TEST. 
          YOU'RE ALSO GOING TO HEAR FROM THE STUDENT SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS TONIGHT ON THEIR UPDATE BECAUSE SOME OF THE WORK THAT YOU HAVE HERE ON THIS DOCUMENT IS DIRECTLY CONNECTED TO SOME OF THE WORK AND FEEDBACK THEY'RE GETTING IN SCHOOLS ACROSS THE DISTRICT RIGHT NOW. 
          IN REGARDS TO THE DOCUMENT, AT THE VERY TOP IS CTE. 
          YOU'LL HEAR A LOT OF THE PHRASE STUDENT AGENCY. 
          A LOT OF PEOPLE HEAR THAT. 
          THEY'RE NOT REALLY CLEAR, LIKE, WHAT DO WE REALLY MEAN BY THAT AS EDUCATORS? TO PUT IT IN REAL SIMPLISTIC TERMS, WHAT THE GOAL OF THIS WORK IS HOW DO YOU INCREASE STUDENT OWNERSHIP, STUDENT RESPONSIBILITY OF THEIR LEARNING? NOT, IT'S JUST YOUR RESPONSIBILITY. FIGURE IT OUT. 
          BUT MORE OF A TWO-WAY METHOD IN CONVERSATION WITH TEACHERS AND STUDENTS. 
          THERE'S A LOT MORE AUTHENTIC OWNERSHIP OF THEIR LEARNING ACROSS GRADES. 
          THIS INCLUDES POCKETS IN ELEMENTARY AS WELL. 
          ON THE FAR RIGHT, YOU'LL SEE SOME EXAMPLES [INAUDIBLE]. 
          SOME OF THIS WORK WE'VE TALKED ABOUT IN THE PAST IN THE BOARD MEETINGS, ESPECIALLY THE WRITE WORK, THE VERY TOP. 
          DEVELOPING ASSESSMENTS IN THE CTE DEPARTMENT THAT ARE AROUND PORTFOLIO DESIGN SO STUDENTS WOULD COMPLETE A PORTFOLIO TO DEMONSTRATE THEIR KNOWLEDGE AND LEARNING VERSUS A MORE STANDARDIZED APPROACH IN TERMS OF A STANDARDIZED TEST. 
          THAT WRITE WORK IS STILL UNDER THE CTE AS SOME OF THE PASSIVE JOB, WRITE IMPLEMENTATION AND LEARNING. 
          IT TAKES A LOT TO CHANGE YOUR ASSESSMENT PRACTICES TO REALLY TRY TO GET IT TO THE WHOLE CHILD. 
          YOU'RE GOING TO HEAR TOMORROW SOME SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS YOU'RE [INAUDIBLE] ON THEIR WORK BECAUSE IT'S A LITTLE BIT ON THIS. 
          ONE OF THE MORE PRACTICAL IMPLEMENTATION PIECES AROUND STUDENT AGENCY THIS YEAR IN OUR DISTRICT IS THE MIDDLE SCHOOL. 
          THE MIDDLE SCHOOL HAS IMPLEMENTED SOME PRACTICE THIS YEAR THAT NOT ONLY MEASURE STUDENTS CONTENT KNOWLEDGE AROUND STANDARDS AND FACTS AND KNOWLEDGE, BUT ALSO WE'RE REALLY LOOKING AT THE HABITS OF WORK OF A CHILD. 
          WHAT ARE THEY DOING? HOW ARE THEY ENGAGING? HOW CAN THEY TALK TO US ABOUT WHAT THEY KNOW? IT'S A MULTIPRONG APPROACH TO TRY TO UNDERSTAND THE KID MORE AS OPPOSED TO ONE METRIC. 
          IT'S HARD. 
          IT TAKES MORE TIME. 
          YOU MIGHT REMEMBER THE DAYS BACK IN THE DAY OF SCANTRONS AND PICK THE RIGHT ANSWER AND THAT'S YOUR GRADE AND THAT'S IT. 
          TRYING TO UNDERSTAND THAT THAT'S PART OF OUR WORLD. 
          BUT ALSO ADD TO THAT TO GIVE KIDS A MUCH MORE OF AN OPPORTUNITY TO DEMONSTRATE WHAT THEY KNOW IN ADDITION TO THE STANDARDIZED METHOD. 
          THE MIDDLE SCHOOL HAS REALLY ROLLED HER SLEEVES UP THIS YEAR AND ARE REALLY TRYING TO ASSESS KIDS MORE HOLISTICALLY AS OPPOSED TO JUST A PERCENTILE. 
          IF YOU GO DOWN HERE, WE HAVE ABOUT 35 TEACHERS OR SO THIS YEAR ENGAGED IN SOME TRAINING MOSTLY AT THE SECONDARY LEVEL AROUND EVIDENCE-BASED GRADING. 
          BASICALLY WHAT THAT IS IS LOOKING AT A BODY OF EVIDENCE TO SHOW WHAT A KID KNOWS VERSUS A ONE DIME. 
          THINK ABOUT IT THIS WAY IN SIMPLISTIC TERMS, IF A STUDENT TAKES A TEST THAT WE'VE ALL TAKEN IN OUR CAREERS DOESN'T DO WELL, WHAT OTHER OPPORTUNITIES CAN WE PROVIDE FOR THAT KID TO SHOW WHAT THEY KNOW THAT MAYBE IS A DIFFERENT FORMAT? MAYBE IT'S A RETAKE, MAYBE IT'S A RETAKE AND A SCRIMMAGE, SOMETHING TO ALLOW STUDENT CHANCES TO SHOW WHAT THEY KNOW BEYOND JUST THE ONE SCORE APPROACH. 
          WE KNOW IT'S A DIFFERENT CONVERSATION AND IT'S HAPPENING IN MANY POCKETS IN OUR DISTRICT AS WE SPEAK RIGHT NOW. 
          IT'S GOOD TEACHING AND IT'S GOOD ASSESSMENT TO TRY TO FIGURE OUT MORE ABOUT THE KID BEYOND JUST A SIMPLE QUIZ. 
          WHEN WE TALK ABOUT AGENCY, HERE'S WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE IN EDUCATORS PLANS. 
          WHEN WE TALK ABOUT EXAMPLES IN OUR DISTRICT, HERE ARE A FEW EXAMPLES IN OUR DISTRICT THAT ARE TRYING TO TAKE THIS ON AND GET OUR KIDS MORE ENGAGED IN WHAT THEY'RE DOING. 
          [00:35:02]
WE WANT THEM TO BE AT THE TABLE ON LEARNING VERSUS BE PASSIVE RECIPIENTS OF LEARNING. 
          THAT REQUIRES SOME PEDAGOGY CHANGE. 
          IT REQUIRES SOME ASSESSMENT MODIFICATION. 
          BUT THE WHOLE INTENT IS TO BE MUCH MORE STUDENT-CENTERED AND ALSO GIVE STUDENTS MORE VOICE IN THEIR ASSESSMENT. 
          YOU'LL HEAR SOME EXAMPLES FROM THESE THREE VERY QUICKLY. 
          THAT'S THE QUICK SUMMARY. 
          THERE'S A LOT IN THIS, BUT THE PURPOSE OF THE NIGHT IS JUST TO GIVE THE BOARD A VERY QUICK SUMMARY OF SOME OF THE WORK TAKING PLACE AROUND ASSESSMENT. 
          HAPPY TO ANSWER QUESTIONS [OVERLAPPING] LOVE THIS WORK BUT PLEASE ASK AWAY. 
          >> MR. CHAIR? 
          >> YES. 
          >> I'M DR. CHRIS. I HAVE A QUESTION WITH THE STUDENTS TAKING MORE PARTICIPATION IN THEIR LEARNING, HOW DOES THIS TRANSLATE TO THEIR ACCOUNTABILITY FOR THEIR LEARNING? AND THEN MY SECOND QUESTION WILL BE, WHAT'S THE FEEDBACK FROM THE TEACHERS TRANSITIONING TO THIS METHODOLOGY AS WELL? 
          >> SO I'LL ANSWER THE SECOND QUESTION FIRST. 
          A LOT OF OUR TEACHERS ARE VERY EAGER TO WANT TO KNOW WHAT OUR KIDS KNOW MORE. 
          WE KNOW THAT WE INVEST SO MUCH TIME IN TEACHING AND LEARNING. 
          AND I CAN TELL YOU THIS FROM THE TEACHING LENS, WHEN YOU JUST TEACH WITH YOUR FEET ON FIRE FOR TWO WEEKS BEFORE A TEST, AND YOU FEEL LIKE YOU'RE DOING YOUR BEST AND THE RESULTS DON'T COME BACK THE WAY YOU THOUGHT THEY WERE GOING TO COME BACK, YOU KNOW YOUR STUDENTS KNOW MORE. 
          SO, THAT PUSHES ON THIS. 
          WHAT ARE OTHER WAYS THAT I CAN GET THAT KNOWLEDGE OUT OF A STUDENT? THAT'S THE FIRST PART. 
          IT'S JUST GOOD ASSESSMENT PRACTICES. 
          NOW, IT DOES REQUIRE SOME CHANGE. 
          AND I WOULD SAY SLIGHT CHANGES, JUST TWEAKS TO SOME TEACHING STRATEGIES, TWEAKS TO ASSESSMENT THAT ALLOW A KID TO ENGAGE IN THAT MORE AND TELL YOU WHAT'S GOING ON IN THEIR LIFE TOO BEFORE A TEST POTENTIALLY. 
          TELL YOU THEIR FRAME OF MIND WHEN THEY TAKE A QUIZ, BE ABLE TO DEBRIEF WITH YOU AFTER A QUIZ, AND MAYBE THEY NEED AN ALTERNATIVE FORMAT TO SHOW WHAT THEY KNOW. 
          GOOD TEACHING PRACTICE. 
          ONE OF THE REALISTIC CONVERSATIONS FROM TEACHERS IS TIME. 
          HOW ARE YOU ABLE TO DO THIS WITH 100 STUDENTS, FOR EXAMPLE, OVER THE COURSE OF FIVE CLASSES? AND SO THOSE SYSTEMS, THAT'S WHAT THIS WORK HERE IS. 
          TRYING TO FIGURE OUT OF THESE SYSTEMS TO REALLY MAKE IT COME TO LIFE, AND THE REALITY OF TEACHING 120 KIDS A DAY. 
          SO THAT IS A CHALLENGE FROM A TEACHING LENS. 
          HOW DO YOU MOVE FROM A STANDARDIZED APPROACH TO A MUCH MORE PERSONALIZED APPROACH? I MEAN, I'M SURE WE'VE ALL BEEN IN CLASSES WHERE WE GOT A GRADE WE DIDN'T THINK WE DESERVED BECAUSE WE KNEW MORE. 
          LIKE HOW DO WE GET BEYOND THAT ONE MEASUREMENT AND KNOW OUR KIDS MORE? YOUR FIRST QUESTION, STEFAN, WAS, I'M NOT SURE. 
          >> THE ACCOUNTABILITY FOR THE STUDENTS. 
          IF THEY'RE BECOMING MORE INVOLVED IN THEIR LEARNING, HOW DOES THAT TRANSLATE TO THEIR ACCOUNTABILITY FOR THEIR LEARNING? 
          >> IN TERMS OF KNOWING? SO I WAS TALKING TO A PEER WHO WORKS IN MASSACHUSETTS. 
          THEY'RE A DISTRICT WHO FOCUSES ON VERY SKILL-BASED LEARNING VERSUS CONTENT-BASED LEARNING. 
          AND ONE OF THE THINGS THAT THEY HAVE SHOWN IS THAT ACCOUNTABILITY PIECE, WHEN YOU SAY MULTIPLE OPPORTUNITY TO SHOW WHAT YOU KNOW, THE FIRST REACTION TO SOME IS LIKE IT'S GOING TO BE EASIER, OR THERE'S NOT GOING TO BE THIS RIGOROUS COURSE WITH A BIG TEST AT THE END. 
          ALL THAT CAN STILL OCCUR IN A TRADITIONAL SENSE. 
          ALL YOU'RE DOING IS JUST PROVIDING OTHER OPPORTUNITIES TO MAKE SURE THAT STUDENT HAS THE OPPORTUNITY TO SHOW WHAT THEY KNOW. 
          ACCOUNTABILITY STAYS AND AP CURRICULUM CAN STILL BE INTACT. 
          THE CONTENT AND THE RIGOR OF THE STANDARDS ARE STILL THERE. 
          IT'S JUST HOW WE REACH THAT ENDPOINT COULD LOOK A LITTLE DIFFERENT FOR EACH CHILD. 
          IT IS DIFFICULT FROM A MANAGERIAL STANDPOINT BECAUSE YOU'RE LOOKING AT REALLY PERSONALIZING IT ALL YOU CAN VERSUS A FACTORY APPROACH WHERE WE ASSESS EVERYBODY THE SAME. 
          I'M ASKING US TO REALLY THINK ABOUT CONSIDERING A LITTLE BIT OF A BLEND OF BOTH. 
          IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE ONE WAY OR THE OTHER, BUT WHAT'S THE MIDDLE GROUND BETWEEN THE STANDARDIZED APPROACH AND MORE OF A PERSONALIZED APPROACH? THANK YOU. 
          >> ANY QUESTIONS. YES, TRUSTEE'S UP. 
          >> SO I WAS LEARNING ABOUT THIS RATING SYSTEM THAT'S CALLED, 
          [00:40:01]
AND YOU PROBABLY KNOW IT, IT'S ONE THAT'S CALLED SPECIFICATION-BASED GRADING. 
          AND I'M WONDERING IF THIS IS SIMILAR TO THAT. 
          IT WAS BASICALLY LIKE YOU DECIDE WHAT THE STUDENT, WHAT YOU WANT THEM TO KNOW. 
          AND THEN WHEN YOU TEST OR WRITE A PAPER OR WHATEVER, YOU'RE EITHER GIVING A YES, YOU GOT IT, OR NOT YET, KIND OF THE GROWTH MINDSET PIECE. 
          AND SO THEY GET TO REDO IT OVER AND OVER UNTIL THEY FINALLY GET IT. 
          AND THEN BASICALLY A STUDENT CAN ONLY GET AN A AS LONG AS THEY'RE WORKING HARD ENOUGH OR IF THEY'RE LIKE, I'M OKAY WITH B. IS THAT PART OF THIS? 
          >> THAT'S IT, THAT'S AN EXAMPLE OF [OVERLAPPING] ITERATIONS OF LEARNING, NOT JUST A ONE AND DONE. 
          REWRITES, MORE FEEDBACK. 
          WE WANT OUR KIDS TO GROW. 
          WE DON'T WANT OUR KIDS TO FEEL STUNTED OFF OF ONE MEASUREMENT METRICS BASICALLY. 
          WE'RE GOING TO GIVE THEM CHANCES. 
          THE CHALLENGE FOR OUR SYSTEM, THE WAY WE'RE SET UP, IS TIME TO DO THAT, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU HAVE SO MANY. 
          SO HOW DO YOU DIFFERENTIATE, MAKE IT PERSONAL? THAT'S OUR WORK AND WE SHOULD BE LOOKING AT THAT. 
          THAT'S THE RIGHT THING TO DO, BUT IT'S NOT A SIMPLE ANSWER. 
          IT GOES BACK TO STEFAN, ON YOUR QUESTION. 
          HOW DO YOU KEEP THOSE HIGH STANDARDS OF CONSISTENCY BUT ALSO PERSONALIZE IT BECAUSE EVERY CHILD IS DIFFERENT? BUT YOU DID DESCRIBE ONE EXAMPLE OF THAT. 
          THE HANDOUT THAT I GAVE YOU TO START, THOSE ARROWS, THOSE AREAS AROUND VOICE, OWNERSHIP, SELF REFLECTION, PROBLEM-SOLVING, BEING ABLE TO REVISE, AND THE LAST ONE, THE MOST IMPORTANT ONE IS EMPOWERING KIDS TO FOLLOW A PASSION THAT THEY LIKE, THOSE ARE CRITICAL. 
          AND I THINK ALL OF US HAVE FELT SOME OF THESE IN OUR LIVES WHEN WE WERE ENGAGED AT A HIGH-LEVEL IN LIFE ABOUT SOMETHING. 
          AND WE NEED TO DO THAT FOR OUR KIDS. 
          WE NEED TO FIGURE OUT A WAY TO MAKE IT PERSONAL FOR THEM. 
          >> ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? 
          >> GREAT. ALL RIGHT, I'M OPEN ANY TIME, SO PLEASE. 
          >> LOVE TO TALK ABOUT IT MORE. 
          NO AGENTS IN THE EYE. 
          HOWEVER, THAT'S IT. [LAUGHTER] 
          >> SHE HAS TO TRAIN. 
          >> THAT IS THE END OF THE SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT. 
          >> THAT'S A SUPER SMALL BOARD. 
          [D. Reports and Items for Discussion]
          >> THANK YOU. 
          >> THANK YOU. 
          >> SO THESE SLIDES, IF YOU JUST WANT TO SCROLL THROUGH THEM, ARE ALL OF OUR DIFFERENT TRIPS THAT WE'VE GONE ON OVER THE PAST MONTH OR SO TO A BUNCH OF DIFFERENT ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS. 
          SO WE STARTED WITH JS, WILSON, WE MOVE ON, THROUGHOUT ALL THE OTHER ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS. 
          WE VISITED THE MIDDLE SCHOOL, AND WE GOT A CHANCE TO TALK TO A LOT OF DIFFERENT STUDENTS AND HEAR THEIR THOUGHTS ABOUT THE DISTRICT, WHAT THEY LIKE, THEY DON'T LIKE. 
          AND I HAVE TO SAY, COMING AWAY FROM THAT, I WANT TO GIVE OUT A BIG THANK YOU TO THE ADMINISTRATORS, TEACHERS, EVERYONE, BECAUSE THAT WAS SOME OF THE MOST POSITIVE FEEDBACK I'VE EVER RECEIVED IN MY LIFE [LAUGHTER]. 
          THOSE WERE SOME OF THE HAPPIEST GROUPS OF STUDENTS BETWEEN THEIR LOVE FOR THE WINTER SPORTS AND AFTER SCHOOL ACTIVITIES AND THEIR SPECIALS AND EVERYTHING ELSE. 
          I MEAN, THERE WAS A LOT OF ENERGY AND THERE WAS A LOT OF PASSION. 
          AND TO BE HONEST. 
          LOOKING AT THIS FROM A STUDENT PERSPECTIVE, THE DISTRICT IS DOING AMAZING. 
          ALONG WITH THAT, WE RECEIVED SOME OTHER FEEDBACK, IMPROVE ON THINGS THEY MAY NOT LIKE AS MUCH. 
          AND IN THE UPCOMING MONTHS OR SO, WE'LL BE TAKING A LOOK AT SOME OF THAT FEEDBACK, FIGURING OUT HOW WE CAN USE THE POSITIVES AND NEGATIVES, EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN AND COMBINE THAT, ANALYZE IT, AND GET SOME GOOD FEEDBACK FROM THEM. 
          >> ABSOLUTELY. I THINK SO LITTLE INSIGHT TO KIND OF THE CONVERSATION WE HAVE. 
          AND WE ASKED ABOUT WHAT THEY THOUGHT THE PURPOSE OF SCHOOL WAS, THE LIMITATIONS THEY HAD AROUND IF THEY'RE REACHING THOSE GOALS THAT THEY SET, AND THEN THE CHANGES THEY WANT TO SEE. 
          I THINK WE HAD A CONVERSATION WITH DR. CHRIS AFTER MOST OF THESE MEETINGS AND TO CONTINUE THE THEME OF WHAT HE WAS SAYING. 
          THEIR MAIN COMPLAIN WAS KIND OF THAT SPECIALIZATION PERSONALIZATION. 
          THESE GUYS, AS GABE SAID, ARE SO EXCITED TO COME TO SCHOOL EVERY DAY. 
          WE JOKE ABOUT WHEN WE GO TO HIGH SCHOOL AND YOU COME BACK AND YOU'RE LIKE NO, THIS IS NOT WHAT WE WANT [LAUGHTER]. 
          >> I'M NOT THAT STOKED, BECAUSE I DON'T GET SNACKS. 
          I'M COMING BACK AND SEEING LIKE AS DR. CHRIS TALKS ABOUT THAT ONE TEST MEASUREMENT, THAT ONE SIZE FITS ALL EDUCATION PLAN. 
          A LOT OF THESE KIDS, I THINK THAT SPARK, 
          [00:45:02]
THEY LOSE FOR LACK OF BETTER VERBIAGE, AND HIGH SCHOOL WAS THAT LACK OF SPECIALIZATION. 
          DAVE ASKED A GREAT QUESTION AND MOST OF THEM ABOUT SPECIALS. 
          AND IF THEY COULD DESIGN A SPECIAL CLASS AROUND MUSIC OR ART, WHAT COULD IT BE. 
          YOU GOT ANSWERS FROM ROCK CLIMBING TO ASTRONOMY, TO SO MANY THINGS. 
          AND WHEN YOU'RE TELLING THEM AT HIGH SCHOOL, YOU CAN TAKE CLASS AND THEY'RE LIKE, OH MY GOD, I HAVE TO GO [LAUGHTER]. 
          I THINK DR. CHRIS MEETING WITH US WAS REALLY EXCITING TO SEE THAT THERE IS A LOT OF EMPHASIS, EVEN FROM PEOPLE FROM KINDERGARTEN TO FIFTH GRADE ON THAT SPECIALIZATION. 
          >> YEAH, THE STUDENTS WERE INCREDIBLY ENGAGED AND REALLY EXCITED TO TALK TO US, WHICH WAS REALLY COOL. 
          AND IT WAS REALLY FUN TO GO BACK TO THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS AND MIDDLE SCHOOLS AS A SENIOR. 
          IT FELT LIKE A FULL CIRCLE MOMENT JUST SEEING WHERE WE STARTED AND REMINISCING ON THAT. 
          AND IT WAS REALLY INCREDIBLE. 
          IT WENT BETTER THAN I COULD'VE IMAGINED. 
          SO THANK YOU, DR. CHAPMAN FOR SETTING ALL OF THAT UP. 
          >> AND IN THE FUTURE, WE HOPE TO TRY TO MEET WITH MORE HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS, TRY TO MEET WITH PARENTS, AND THEN TRY TO GET OUR DATA ANALYSIS QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE GOING WITH TWO REVOLUTIONS IN THE RIDE PROGRAM. 
          AND THEN TRY TO COME UP WITH A PLAN AND TRY TO ACTUALLY START WORKING ON A FULL CONCRETE PORTRAIT GRADUATE, HOPEFULLY BEFORE SPRING BREAK. 
          >> DO YOU GUYS HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? 
          >> NO ANY QUESTIONS? MY BAD. 
          >> ALL RIGHT. 
          >> PETE? NO? 
          >> THANK YOU. 
          >> THANK YOU. 
          >> THANK YOU. TRUSTEE ZUNG, FISCAL MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE. 
          >> YOU DON'T WANT US? 
          >> NO. [LAUGHTER] 
          >> WELL, WE HAD A PRETTY FOCUSED INCOME THIS WEEK. 
          WE'RE TALKING ABOUT POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS FOR FOOD SERVICE FOR NEXT YEAR WITH INFLATIONARY RATES FOR FOOD, AS WELL AS SALARIES AND BENEFITS OF STAFF IN GENERAL. 
          IT'S BECOMING A DEFICIT AGAIN IN OUR FOOD SERVICE PROGRAM. 
          WE WERE ONCE IN A DEFICIT AND THEN WE CAME BACK, AND WE DIDN'T HAVE IT FOR A WHILE. 
          NOW WITH EVERYTHING INCREASING, WE'RE STARTING TO SEE A LARGER DEFICIT FORMING. 
          >> MR. CHAIR? 
          >> YES. 
          >> JUST TO REMIND US, THE MODEL DOES NOT PAY FOR FOOD. 
          WE ARE EXPECTED TO RUN IT AS AN ENTERPRISE FUND. 
          THAT'S RARE, WE SUBSIDIZE IT. 
          WE'RE TAKING MONEY OUT OF THE MONEY THE STATE GIVES US EVEN THOUGH THE STATE DIDN'T GIVE US MONEY FOR FOOD. 
          BUT WE HAVE TO TAKE THE MONEY OUT TO MAKE THE PROGRAM WORK. 
          >> YES. [OVERLAPPING] 
          >> WE DON'T GET MONEY FROM THE STATE FOR THE FOOD. 
          >> WE DON'T. WHEN WE PROCESS MEALS, WE DO FILE FOR REIMBURSEMENT OF PARTIAL PAYMENT OF THOSE MEALS, AND WE COLLECT SOME REVENUE THAT COMES FROM USDA, THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, THROUGH THE STATE DEPARTMENT. 
          >> BUT NOT IN THE MODEL. 
          >> WE'RE NOT FUNDED AT ALL IN THE MODEL. 
          WE'RE NOT FUNDED OR FRONT LOADED AT ALL. 
          >> OTHER REVENUE SOURCES, BUT NOT THE MODEL. 
          >> WE HAVE OTHER REVENUE SOURCES WHICH INCLUDES DONATIONS FROM THE FUND FOR PUBLIC EDUCATION, MEAL PRICES, AND THE FEDERAL REIMBURSEMENT, WHICH IS MUCH SMALLER NOW THAN IT WAS DURING THE COVID YEARS. 
          THAT'S REALLY WHAT KEPT US IN THE POSITIVE FOR THOSE COUPLE OF YEARS. 
          NOW WE'RE SEEING THE RESULT. 
          BASICALLY, WHAT WE'RE GOING TO START SEEING NATIONWIDE IS THAT THE DECREASE OF ALL OF THOSE COVID RELIEF FUNDS ARE GOING TO IMPACT WHAT'S HAPPENING IN OUR SCHOOLS. 
          THIS IS THE FIRST PLACE WE'RE WORKING AROUND, WHERE ELSE WE MIGHT SEE THEM IN OUR DISTRICT. 
          THE THREE MAIN OPTIONS THAT WE HAVE IS TO CONTINUE TO RUN OUR FOOD SERVICE DEPARTMENT AS IS AS A DEFICIT, AND MOVE MONEY FROM THE GENERAL FUND INTO THE FOOD SERVICE ENTERPRISE FUND, AND RELY ON THE DONATIONS FROM THE FUND FOR PUBLIC EDUCATION. 
          WE COULD GO OUT FOR BID AND CONTRACT OUR FOOD SERVICE, WHICH MAY OR MAY NOT BE A VIABLE OPTION. 
          WE ARE PREPARING AN RFP RIGHT NOW. WHAT'S THAT? 
          >> THE DOMINANCE. 
          >> [LAUGHTER] WELL, WE HAVE SOME STUDENTS THAT WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE PIZZA DAY. 
          [LAUGHTER] I THINK THE SUPERINTENDENT DID GET SOME FEEDBACK THAT TWO DAYS WAS TOO MUCH IN A WEEK. 
          [LAUGHTER] THAT ALL OF OUR STUDENTS WOULD APPRECIATE PIZZA EVERY DAY. 
          THERE ARE SOME FOOD SERVICE CONTRACTORS THAT THIS IS WHAT THEY DO. 
          THERE'S A LOT OF QUESTIONS AROUND THAT. 
          WILL THEY BE ABLE TO HIRE STAFF? THEY'LL FACE A LOT OF THE SAME CHALLENGES THAT WE'RE FACING. 
          [00:50:04]
THE THIRD OPTION THAT I'M JUST STARTING TO SCRATCH THE SURFACE ON, AND I'M SURVEYING SOME OF THE OTHER BUSINESS MANAGERS IN THE STATE, IS TO LEAVE THE NATIONAL SCHOOL LUNCH PROGRAM ALTOGETHER, WHICH DOES A COUPLE OF THINGS, AND THAT WE DIDN'T ACTUALLY TALK ABOUT THAT INCOME. 
          WE HAD A REALLY HEALTHY CONVERSATION IN [INAUDIBLE] SO MY MIND HAS BEEN SPINNING EVER SINCE THEN. 
          BUT THERE'S A COUPLE OF DISTRICTS THAT DON'T PARTICIPATE IN THE NATIONAL SCHOOL LUNCH PROGRAM, WHICH MEANS THEY'RE NOT GETTING THAT FEDERAL REIMBURSEMENT. 
          BUT THERE'S A COUPLE IN THIS STATE THAT ARE REALLY SUCCESSFUL AT MANAGING THEIR FOOD SERVICE WITHOUT A DEFICIT, WITHOUT THAT REIMBURSEMENT. 
          THEY'RE ABLE TO ELIMINATE SOME OF THE RESTRICTIONS THAT WE HAVE. 
          SOME OF THE GUIDELINES FOR PREPARING FOOD FROM THE USDA SOMETIMES PRESENTS AS EATING CARDBOARD. 
          IF WE ELIMINATE THOSE RESTRICTIONS AND FOCUS MORE ON A HEALTHY FOOD PROGRAM, WHICH I THINK WE COULD REALLY GET A LOT OF INTEREST FROM OUR LOCAL FOOD COLLABORATORS, WE MAY BE ABLE TO MANAGE A PROGRAM LIKE THAT A BIT DIFFERENTLY. 
          I THINK THERE'S SOME RESEARCH TO DO AROUND THAT AS WELL. 
          >> MR. CHAIRMAN? 
          >> YES. 
          >> I NOTICE THAT THE HIGH SCHOOL, THERE'S ALWAYS AN A LUNCH. 
          I ASSUME THAT'S THE A LUNCHES BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT USDA SAYS WE HAVE TO HAVE. 
          WE WOULD NOT HAVE TO HAVE THAT LUNCH PROVIDED ANYMORE BECAUSE THERE'S ALWAYS THE GOOD FOOD HERE [LAUGHTER] AND THERE'S A STANDARD PLATE YOU HAVE TO TAKE IF YOU'RE GETTING THE A LUNCH. 
          YOU'RE SAYING WE WOULD NO LONGER BE REQUIRED TO PREPARE THE A LUNCH? 
          >> I DON'T KNOW ALL OF THE DETAILS YET, BUT WE COULD DESIGN OUR LUNCHES. 
          FOR EXAMPLE, YOU COULD HAVE A SANDWICH BAR, A SALAD BAR, AND A MEAL PREPARED. 
          THE MEAL PREPARED WOULDN'T NECESSARILY HAVE TO FOLLOW ALL OF THE USDA RESTRICTIONS. 
          THAT DOESN'T NECESSARILY MEAN WE DON'T WANT TO SERVE HEALTHY FOOD. 
          IT JUST MEANS WE HAVE THE FREEDOM TO BE A LITTLE BIT MORE FLEXIBLE ABOUT HOW MUCH SALT IS IN THE FOOD THAT WE'RE PREPARING OR WHAT WE'RE DOING. 
          LIKE I SAID, THE INITIAL CHATTER FROM SOME OF THE OTHER BUSINESS MANAGERS IN THE STATE IS THAT THEY HAVE SOME PREPARED MENUS THAT THEY'VE SHARED AMONGST THEMSELVES, THE ONES THAT AREN'T PARTICIPATING IN THE NATIONAL SCHOOL LUNCH PROGRAM. 
          WE WANT TO FIRST TAKE A LOOK AT THAT, SEE IF THIS IS SOMETHING WE WOULD EVEN WANT TO DO. 
          I THINK THAT WE GET A LOT OF PARTICIPATION. 
          WE'RE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT EVERYTHING AND INVESTIGATE EVERY POSSIBLE SOLUTION TO END UP WITH WHAT'S THE BEST FOR OUR STUDENTS. 
          THEN HOPEFULLY, WE CAN WORK WITH THE FUND FOR PUBLIC EDUCATION TO REALLY DIVE IN AND MAKE THE BEST CHOICE. 
          ANOTHER OPTION IS TO HAVE CENTRALIZED KITCHENS WHERE WE'RE BUSTING MEALS OUT, AND THAT WOULD HELP US WITH OUR STAFFING. 
          >> [INAUDIBLE]. 
          >> YES. 
          >> HE'S HERE. 
          >> THANK YOU. 
          >> CHRISTINE, VERY INTERESTING WITH THE NEW INFORMATION THAT YOU PROVIDED. 
          WOULD THAT MEAN IF WE LEFT USDA FEDERAL PROGRAM, DO YOU THINK WE WOULD SAVE MONEY ON THE REPORTING SIDE OF THINGS, ALL THE PAPERWORK THAT'S REQUIRED? WOULD THAT BE ONE OF THE BENEFITS OF LEAVING SUCH A PROGRAM? 
          >> I THINK SO. 
          WE HAVE ADMINISTRATIVE LIFT THROUGH OUR DIRECTOR OF FOOD SERVICE. 
          WE HAVE TO HAVE THE NUTRITIONIST WHO'S PREPARING THOSE MENUS THAT HAVE TO CORRELATE TO THOSE STANDARDS. 
          THEN EACH KITCHEN MANAGER HAS QUITE A BIT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE PAPERWORK TO DO ON A DAILY BASIS AS WELL. 
          I DO THINK SOME OF THAT WILL BE ELIMINATED, NOT ALL OF IT. 
          WE STILL WANT TO MAKE SURE WE'RE DOING TEMPERATURE LOGS AND SOME OF THOSE THINGS THAT ARE PRETTY STANDARD IN ANY KITCHEN. 
          >> ENCOURAGE ME TO DO THAT. 
          >> INTERESTINGLY ENOUGH, THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT HAS NEVER ASKED FOR THOSE. 
          I DON'T THINK THEY MEASURE OUR EQUIPMENT, BUT THEY DON'T ACTUALLY. 
          >> THEY CAME AND INSPECTED, THEY DIDN'T WANT TO SEE IT. 
          >> WELL, THEY DO EVERY YEAR. WE GET THEM EVERY YEAR. 
          I THINK THERE'S A LOT OF DIFFERENT POSSIBILITIES. 
          WE'RE DEFINITELY PROBABLY GOING TO HAVE TO CHANGE SOME THINGS FOR NEXT YEAR. 
          RIGHT NOW, WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH STAFF, WE DEFINITELY MOVING FORWARD. 
          I THINK WE HAVE TWO RETIREMENTS. 
          WE'LL NOT HAVE ENOUGH STAFF TO STAFF FOOD SERVICE AS IT IS RIGHT NOW. 
          ANY OTHER QUESTIONS ON FOOD SERVICE? [OVERLAPPING] 
          >> NO, BUT ON THAT CONCEPT, YES. 
          >> SURE. 
          >> CHAIR? 
          >> YES. 
          >> HOW WAS THAT CONNECTED TO FREE AND REDUCED LUNCHES? 
          [00:55:04]
          >> THE WAY THAT FREE AND REDUCED LUNCHES WORK NOW IS WE GET A HIGHER REIMBURSEMENT RATE FROM THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT FOR THOSE MEALS. 
          THIS IS PURELY ASSUMPTION ON MY PART BASED ON WHAT I'VE SEEN. 
          I THINK THAT WE WOULDN'T GET THOSE REIMBURSEMENTS ANYMORE. 
          I DON'T KNOW IF WE WOULD STILL GO THROUGH THE PROCESS OF QUALIFYING PEOPLE OR NOT. 
          WE HAVE THE OTHER PROCESS THAT WE USE TO QUALIFY PEOPLE FOR THE TETON MEAL SUPPORT THROUGH THE FUND FOR PUBLIC EDUCATION. 
          WE COULD STILL ASK FOR THAT DOCUMENTATION TO QUALIFY PEOPLE THAT NEED AID, BUT WE WOULD DEFINITELY BE MISSING SOME REVENUE. 
          COULD WE OPERATE MORE EFFICIENTLY, NOT PARTICIPATING IN THAT PROGRAM, AND POSSIBLY GOING TO A CENTRALIZED KITCHEN? WOULD IT BE POSSIBLE FINANCIALLY? THAT'S REALLY WHAT WE'RE WORKING ON. 
          THAT'S WHAT DANNY AND I ARE TALKING ABOUT QUITE OFTEN RIGHT NOW. 
          >> WELL, AND THE REASON I ASKED BECAUSE THEN THOSE FREE AND REDUCED NUMBERS ARE CONNECTED TO OUR ABILITY TO OFFER TITLE I OR RECEIVE TITLE I FUNDS. 
          I WAS JUST CURIOUS HOW THIS ALL TRICKLES DOWN. 
          >> WE WOULD STILL HAVE TO COLLECT SOME DATA FOR THAT. 
          THE TITLE I NUMBERS IMPACT NOT THE AMOUNT OF TITLE I MONEY WE GET, THAT'S BASED ON THE CENSUS DATA, BUT THE DISTRIBUTION OF THE TITLE I MONEY. 
          WE HAVE TWO SCHOOLS THAT ARE TITLE I SCHOOLS RIGHT NOW. 
          NEXT YEAR, WE MOVE TO ONE SCHOOL THAT'S A TITLE I SCHOOL, SO I DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH THAT WOULD ACTUALLY IMPACT US BECAUSE THERE IS NO DISTRIBUTION OF THOSE FUNDS ANYMORE. 
          NOW, WE JUST HAVE ONE SCHOOL. 
          BUT IT IS A GOOD POINT AND SOMETHING TO LOOK AT. 
          >> ANYBODY ELSE ON THE LUNCHES? 
          >> THE OTHER REALLY POSITIVE NEWS THAT I RECEIVED TODAY, [INAUDIBLE] WHO DOES ALL OF OUR SUB TRAINING HAS GROWN OUR SUBSTITUTE POOL FROM 20 SUBS AT THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR TO 60. 
          WE HAVE HAD A LOT OF SUB TRAINING. 
          I HAD A CONVERSATION WITH HER TODAY JUST TO SAY, ARE YOU GETTING FEEDBACK OF WHY ARE PEOPLE NOW COMING TO SUB? A LOT OF FEEDBACK IS AROUND THE INCENTIVE THAT WE PUT IN PLACE TWO YEARS AGO WHERE THE REGULAR DAILY RATE FOR A SUBSTITUTE IS $160 A DAY. 
          BUT IF THEY WORK THREE OR MORE DAYS, THEY GET 250 FOR ALL THE DAYS WORKED IN THAT MONTH. 
          SHE SAID THAT THAT IS NOW SPREADING AND WE'RE GETTING A LOT MORE INTERESTED PEOPLE BECAUSE OF THE INCREASE IN PAY. 
          THAT'S A GREAT SNOW YEAR HAS HELPED, [LAUGHTER] COME IN AND WORK. 
          THEN THE OTHER CHANGE THAT WE'VE MADE IS WE USED TO JUST PAY FOR THEM TO GO THROUGH THE SUBSTITUTE TRAINING AND WE'D HAVE PEOPLE COME THROUGH AND DO THE TRAINING AND THEN NEVER WORK A DAY. 
          WE HAVE ACTUALLY SAID IN ORDER TO GET PAID FOR THE TRAINING, YOU HAVE TO PICK UP AT LEAST ONE DAY OF SUBSTITUTING. 
          THAT HAS MADE A HUGE DIFFERENCE BECAUSE IT GETS THEM ACTUALLY DOING THE JOB AND THEN THEY'RE COMING BACK AND DOING IT MORE. 
          WHERE SHE USED TO SEE PEOPLE DOING ONE OR TWO DAYS A MONTH, WE'RE NOW SEEING THEM DO TWO OR THREE DAYS A WEEK WHICH IS GREAT. 
          >> GOOD. 
          >> ALL RIGHT. 
          >> MRS. [INAUDIBLE]. 
          >> ANYTHING ELSE? [INAUDIBLE] ON OTHER REPORTS. SUPERINTENDENT CHAPMAN. 
          >> THANK YOU. THE FIRST REPORT THIS EVENING IS THE LEGISLATIVE UPDATE AND AS WE MET LAST WEEK WITH THE TETON COUNTY DELEGATE AND PROVIDED SOME INFORMATION AND HAD A REALLY GOOD EXCHANGE. 
          WE ARE APPRECIATIVE OF OUR DELEGATION SUPPORTING OUR EFFORTS AND UNDERSTANDING OUR ISSUES. 
          WE PROVIDED THEM WITH OUR LEGISLATIVE PRIORITIES THAT THE BOARD APPROVED A FEW MONTHS AGO. 
          AND WE'VE BEEN ENCOURAGED TO BE PRESENT DURING THE SESSION FEBRUARY 18 TO THE 21ST WHEN THE BUDGET IS DEBATED IN BOTH CHAMBERS SO WE WILL BE PRESENT FOR THAT. 
          >> YOU MENTIONED [INAUDIBLE] WAS ABLE TO GET THE BROCK ACHIEVEMENT CENTER ADDED TO THE APPROPRIATION. 
          >> SO WE'RE VERY APPRECIATIVE OF THE HARD WORK. 
          THAT'S BASICALLY WHAT WE KNOW RIGHT NOW. 
          THE SECOND ITEM THAT I'D LIKE TO DISCUSS WITH THE BOARD THIS EVENING AND TO GAUGE 
          [01:00:02]
YOUR INTEREST IN SENDING A FOLLOW UP LETTER TO THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS BY TOMORROW. 
          THEY ARE TAKING COMMENT FOR A HEARING THAT WILL COMMENCE ON FEBRUARY 21 REGARDING DRAFT AMENDMENTS TO THE LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS. 
          WE HAD A CLARIFYING MEETING WHERE IT WAS BROUGHT FORWARD THAT IN THESE DRAFT AMENDMENTS THAT ARE BEING CONSIDERED FOR NORTHERN SOUTH PARK AREA 1, SPECIFICALLY THAT IT IS CALLED OUT THAT 0.01 EXACTION WOULD BE PER ACRE OR UNIT FOR BOTH RESTRICTED AND UNRESTRICTED DEVELOPMENT. 
          IN CONSIDERING NORTHERN SOUTH PARK AREA 1 THAT WOULD GENERATE SIX ACRES FOR FUTURE SCHOOL SITE. 
          THAT, COMBINED WITH THE 12 ACRES FOR A PART, WOULD CERTAINLY BE ADEQUATE FOR A FUTURE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL SITE. 
          IT WAS SUGGESTED THAT WE CLARIFY OUR POSITION, AND WHILE THE BOARD, IN THE PAST, HASN'T TAKEN A POSITION IN FAVOR OR IN OPPOSITION TO A SPECIFIC DEVELOPMENT, OUR INTEREST HAS BEEN MORE CENTERED AROUND ENSURING THAT WITH THESE LARGE SCALE DEVELOPMENTS IN THE FUTURE THAT A SET ASIDE IS DONE, AND IT'S SPECIFICALLY CALLED OUT. 
          THIS LETTER ATTEMPTS TO SAY WE'RE NOT SUPPORTING OR OPPOSING ANY PARTICULAR DEVELOPMENT. 
          WHAT WE'RE SAYING IS WE'D LIKE TO HAVE AN EXACTION IN LAND AND WE'D LIKE TO KNOW THAT THAT IS SET ASIDE. 
          SO THESE DRAFT AMENDMENTS THAT THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS WILL BE CONSIDERING BEGINNING FEBRUARY 21, BASICALLY SAYS, IF THIS IS INDEED TRUE, SIX ACRES WOULD BE ADEQUATE BECAUSE WE CAN PUT THAT NEXT TO A PARK AND REALLY MAKE GOOD USE OF THE PROPERTY FOR A FUTURE SITE. 
          THE OTHER SUGGESTION IN HERE IS THAT, TO BE SPECIFIC, WITH THOSE AMENDMENTS TO THE LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS, IT IS ABUNDANTLY CLEAR THAT THE EXACTIONS PER UNIT AND THE DRAFT AMENDMENTS ARE EXACTLY AS THEY'RE SAID SO THAT DOWN THE ROAD THERE ISN'T ANY AMBIGUITY OR QUESTION ABOUT THE IMPACT OF SCHOOLS. 
          I THINK IF THIS INFORMATION WAS BROUGHT FORWARD YEARS AGO, WE WOULDN'T HAVE HAD ANY CONCERNS WHATSOEVER. 
          I APPRECIATE THE FACT THAT THE COMMISSIONERS ARE LOOKING AT THIS, I JUST THINK IT NEEDS TO BE SPECIFICALLY CALLED OUT. 
          WE'RE HOPEFUL THAT THIS CLARIFIES WHERE WE STAND ON NORTHERN SOUTH PARK AREA 1. 
          THEN THERE'S ANOTHER SECTION IN THERE THAT REITERATES THAT OUR CONCERN RIGHT NOW IS THE FUNDING FOR THE ADDITION TO THE HIGH SCHOOL. 
          THAT IS A CRITICAL NEED. 
          THEN IT REFERENCES IN THE LETTER THAT WAS DRAFTED PREVIOUSLY, I HAD A TYPO IN THERE AND IT SAID THE ROOFTOP MULTIPLIER WAS 0.03, IT'S 0.3 PER ROOFTOP SO THIS CLEARS THAT UP AS WELL. 
          I BELIEVE THE READERS UNDERSTOOD THE INTENT AND I APPRECIATED THEM CALLING IT TO MY ATTENTION THAT THERE WAS AN ERROR. 
          SO IF THE BOARD WOULD LIKE ANY FUTURE EDITS, WHAT WE'D LIKE TO DO IS HAD YOU CONSIDER SENDING THIS AND GETTING A SIGNATURE TONIGHT FROM THE CHAIR SO THAT IT GOES INTO THEIR PACKET. 
          BECAUSE THE THE CUTOFF IS TOMORROW FOR THEIR HEARING INFORMATION. 
          SO THAT'S [OVERLAPPING]. 
          >> I HAVE A QUESTION. YOU MENTIONED THAT THERE'S 12 ACRES AND THAT MUST BE IN ANOTHER ONE OF THE AMENDMENTS. 
          BECAUSE I THINK WE BEFORE WE SAID WE NEEDED 10 ACRES TO INCLUDE THE PARK. 
          DO WE NEED TO SPECIFY THAT SOME OF THAT OTHER PARK BE CLOSE ADJACENT TO THE SCHOOL OR? 
          >> YES, WE COULD ADD. 
          THAT THE WAY THE FORMULA WORKS FOR AN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, IT'S A THREE ACRE PARCEL, SORRY FOUR ACRE PARCEL WITH AN ADDITIONAL ACRE PER 100 STUDENTS. 
          [01:05:01]
A SIX ACRE PARCEL IS CERTAINLY ADEQUATE FOR AN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. 
          MADE MORE ADEQUATE IF IT'S ADJACENT TO A PARK, BECAUSE THAT WAY WE COULD BUILD THE PLAYGROUND AND HAVE A FIELD AND THE SCHOOL DISTRICT WOULD MAINTAIN IT, BUT IT WOULD STILL BE COMMUNITY USE. 
          WE COULD CERTAINLY ADD THAT IN BECAUSE DEPENDING ON THE SIZE, LIKE FOR THOSE DEVELOPMENT OF NORTHERN SOUTH PARK AREA 1, A SIX ACRE PARCEL MAY BE ADEQUATE, BUT A 10 ACRE WOULD PROBABLY BE IDEAL. 
          WE COULD PROBABLY MAKE A SIX ACRE PARCEL WORK BUT I THINK CLARIFYING THAT PUTTING IT NEXT TO A PARK DOES MAKE A LOT OF SENSE IN TERMS OF COMMUNITY USE. 
          THEN YOU'RE NOT BEING REDUNDANT AND THE SCHOOL DISTRICT IS TAKING CARE OF IT SO IT DOES MAKE SENSE TO DO IT THAT WAY. 
          WE COULD PUT THAT BACK IN. 
          IT WAS REFERENCED EARLIER, SO WE COULD PUT THAT BACK IN SO IT'S CLEAR. 
          >> THE FORMULA THEY'RE USING BECAUSE YOU'RE GOING TO NEED. 
          SO FOR PARKS IT'S 0.02 ACRES PER UNIT, AND FOR SCHOOLS EXACTION IS 0.01 ACRES PER UNIT. 
          THAT'S HOW THEY'RE COMING UP WITH THAT. 
          SO THAT'S HOW THEY COMING UP WITH THOSE NUMBERS. 
          AND THAT WAS SHARED WITH DR. CHAPMAN. 
          THE DRAFT AMENDMENTS. YES. 
          >> CHAIR, DR. CHAPMAN, IF I UNDERSTAND THIS, WHAT THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS HAVE PROPOSED WITH THIS AMENDMENT, WHAT IS CHANGING IS INSTEAD OF THE EXACTIONS JUST BEING FOR FREE MARKET HOMES, THEY ARE NOW PROPOSING THAT IT BE ALL HOMES IN THE NORTHERN SOUTH PARK 1. 
          >> AREA 1. CORRECT. AND ALSO IT SPECIFIES UNIT WHICH IS IMPORTANT. 
          SO IF THERE'S A CONDO ON A PARCEL AND THERE'S TWO OR TWO TOWN HOMES OR WHATEVER, THAT IT WILL BE BOTH TOWN HOMES. 
          THAT EXACTION WOULD APPLY. 
          THIS IS CERTAINLY FAVORABLE, RESOLVES OUR ISSUES, AND I THINK THAT WOULD CLARIFY OUR POSITION. 
          AND I REALLY APPRECIATE THE ELECTED OFFICIALS AND THE DECISION MAKERS LOOKING AT THIS AND SAYING, YEAH, WE NEED TO BE CLEAR AND SPECIFIC ABOUT IT. 
          THAT HAS BEEN MISSING IN MY OPINION AND IT DOES RESOLVE OUR CONCERNS. 
          >> THANK YOU. 
          >> ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR DR. CHAPMAN? IS THERE ANY GENERAL COMMENTS ABOUT THIS LETTER? HOPEFULLY YOU'VE ALL READ THE DRAFT. 
          >> I DID. 
          >> YES. 
          >> [INAUDIBLE] TO SEE THE CHANGE. 
          >> WITHOUT ANY OBJECTION, I'LL JUST GO AHEAD AND SIGN UP. 
          THANK YOU. NEXT UP. 
          >> NEXT UP IS SARAH VAN, AND SHE'S GOING TO TALK ABOUT THE TETON COUNTY PARKS AND REC AGREEMENT THAT THE BOARD HAD REQUESTED. 
          >> EXCELLENT. COUNSELOR. 
          >> I THINK THE MOST [INAUDIBLE] THING ABOUT GOING THROUGH THE HISTORICAL AGREEMENTS IS THAT MR. [INAUDIBLE] AND I HAVE BEEN AROUND SINCE DAY 1, ALMOST [LAUGHTER]. SO OLD. WHAT MY INTENT IS TONIGHT, I DON'T KNOW HOW FAMILIAR YOU ALL ARE WITH THE FIELDS AND FACILITY HEAT AGREEMENT. 
          IT IS QUITE A HISTORICAL AGREEMENT. 
          IT IS VERY DETAILED. 
          I WON'T GO INTO DETAIL, BUT CERTAINLY DR. CHAPMAN OR MIKE CARSON, CAN ANSWER QUESTIONS BECAUSE IT'S AN AGREEMENT THAT'S BEEN LOOKED AT MULTIPLE [NOISE] TIMES BY THE PARTIES OVER THE YEARS. 
          THERE'S BEEN NUMEROUS AMENDMENTS IN DETAIL ADDED, AND I THINK IT WILL CONTINUE TO BE AN EVOLVING DOCUMENT. 
          I THOUGHT I'D START WITH PRESADRIA, BASICALLY AGAIN, AT A VERY HIGH LEVEL. 
          THE AGREEMENT IS A COMPREHENSIVE USE AGREEMENT 
          [01:10:04]
BETWEEN THE PARTIES BEING THE SCHOOL DISTRICT, TETON COUNTY, AND THE TOWN OF JACKSON. 
          THE COUNTY IN THE TOWN ARE INVOLVED BECAUSE THEY TOGETHER FORM THE JACKSON TETON COUNTY PUBLIC FACILITIES JOINT POWERS BOARD. 
          WHEN WE REVIEW THE PARKS AND REC, THERE IS A DEPARTMENT OF PARKS AND RECREATION GOVERNED BY THE JOINT POWERS BOARD. 
          THERE'S MULTIPLE LEVELS. 
          IT'S AN AGREEMENT THAT WE'VE NEGOTIATED WITH THE TOWN, THE COUNTY, LARGE INPUT FROM PARKS AND REC AND THE BOARD ITSELF, IF NECESSARY. 
          WHAT THE AGREEMENTS HISTORICALLY HAVE COVERED ARE LAND EXCHANGES. 
          THERE IS A HISTORY OF LAND EXCHANGES, BUT PRIMARILY THE COOPERATIVE USE BETWEEN PARKS AND REC AND THE SCHOOL DISTRICT REGARDING THE CONSTRUCTION, USE, MAINTENANCE, SCHEDULING OF THE FIELDS AND FACILITIES, WHICH ARE PART OF THE AGREEMENT, AND I'LL SHOW YOU IN JUST A BIT THERE ARE ONLY CERTAIN FIELDS AND FACILITIES OWNED BY TETON COUNTY SCHOOL DISTRICT THAT ARE PART OF THE AGREEMENT. 
          THERE ARE SPECIFIC FIELD AND FACILITIES THAT ARE EXCLUDED. 
          AS FAR AS THE PURPOSE IN THE INTENT, I THOUGHT I PULLED THE LANGUAGE DIRECTLY FROM SOME OF THE HISTORICAL AGREEMENTS, BUT THE ONGOING THEME THROUGHOUT THE AGREEMENTS HAS BEEN THAT IT REALLY IS IN THE BEST INTEREST OF THE TAXPAYERS NOT TO HAVE DUPLICATIVE SERVICES AND EXPENDITURES IN PROVIDING RECREATIONAL FIELDS AND FACILITIES. 
          DR. CHAPMAN JUST REFERENCED THAT IN SAYING, THERE'S A SCHOOL SITE, IT'S IDEAL TO HAVE A PARK RIGHT NEXT DOOR BECAUSE IT CAN BE USED BY COMMUNITY, IT CAN BE USED BY THE SCHOOL STUDENTS, AND THEN AGAIN, IT HAS MULTIPLE USES. 
          AGAIN, FROM THE DISTRICT'S PERSPECTIVE, OUR RECITAL STATES THE DISTRICT HAS ALLOWED COMMUNITY USE OF THE FIELDS AND FACILITIES FOR RECREATIONAL PURPOSES, AND AGAIN, IN EXCHANGE FOR A WHOLE HISTORY AND ONGOING CONSTRUCTION, MAINTENANCE, REPAIRS TO FIELDS AND FACILITIES, AND AGAIN FOR COMMUNITY USE IS THE OVERALL THEME. 
          [NOISE] THANK YOU. JUST FOR FUN, I THOUGHT I WOULD INCLUDE SOME OF THE HISTORICAL AGREEMENTS AND AS I REFERENCED, THERE ARE THE FIRST GOING BACK TO 1981, [INAUDIBLE] IT WAS LIKELY USING THE FIELDS. 
          [LAUGHTER] SERIOUSLY, I DO AGREE A LOT. 
          >> I THINK YOU WERE THE CHEERLEADER. 
          >> [LAUGHTER] DON'T LET ME DO THE OLD SCHOOL SONG. 
          IN 1981, THE OLD HIGH SCHOOL WAS WHERE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL NOW SITS, CULTURE ELEMENTARY. 
          >> JACKSON ELEMENTARY. 
          >> I'M SORRY. JACKSON ELEMENTARY, YES, I APOLOGIZE. 
          THE FIELDS ARE ROUGHLY IN THE SAME LOCATIONS. 
          SO THAT WAS WHEN THE COUNTY AND THE SCHOOL DISTRICT DECIDED WE REALLY SHOULD GET TOGETHER AND COME TO SOME AGREEMENT ABOUT USE AND MAINTENANCE BECAUSE COMMUNITIES ARE ALL USING THE FIELDS, AND SO THAT WAS THE FIRST AGREEMENT. 
          IN 1998, WAS THE ORIGINAL POOL USE AGREEMENT. 
          THIS IS WHAT REALLY WAS THE GENESIS OF WHAT THE CURRENT COMPREHENSIVE USE AGREEMENT IS TODAY. 
          BUT JUST FOR HISTORICAL REFERENCE, IN 1993, THE SCHOOL DISTRICT TRANSFERRED A PORTION OF THE PROPERTY ON WHICH NOW THE RECREATION CENTER SETS TO THE TOWN INITIALLY, BUT ULTIMATELY TO THE JOINT POWERS BOARD AND THE INTENT, THERE WAS REALLY A COLLABORATIVE EFFORT TO GET A RECREATION CENTER CONSTRUCTED. 
          AGAIN, THE INTEREST OF THE SCHOOL WAS SO THAT SCHOOL STUDENTS HAD ACCESS TO A POOL, AND AGAIN, ACCESS TO THE POOL FOR SWIM TEAM PURPOSES. 
          THAT GOES BACK AS FAR AS 1993. 
          AN ENTIRELY ANOTHER SEPARATE AGREEMENT WAS IN 1999 AGREEMENT REGARDING THE SKATEBOARD PARK. 
          DO YOU KNOW HOW THAT WAS CONSTRUCTED? I BELIEVE THAT FUNDS OR SOME FUNDING, BUT AGAIN, NOT FUNDING COMING FROM THE SCHOOL DISTRICT YET. 
          I THINK ALL THE PARTIES INVOLVED THOUGHT IDEALLY, THE LOCATION WHERE IT CURRENTLY IS IS A PERFECT LOCATION FOR A SKATE PARK. 
          SO THAT WAS A SEPARATE AGREEMENT AND THEN IT WASN'T UNTIL 2009 WHERE THE PARTY SAT DOWN AND DECIDED THERE'S ALL THESE HISTORICAL AGREEMENTS, LET'S GET THEM ALL IN ONE PLACE AND TRY REALLY WORK OUT HOW THIS IS ALL GOING TO WORK. 
          BECAUSE I THINK BEFORE THEN THERE WERE JUST TOO MANY AGREEMENTS, SOME WERE EXPIRING, SOME WERE NOT NEEDED ANY LONGER. 
          SO WE REALLY TRIED TO DRAFT AND IMPLEMENT 
          [01:15:02]
A COMPREHENSIVE AGREEMENT INVOLVING ALL THE FIELDS AND FACILITIES THAT ARE AT ISSUE. 
          AGAIN, THAT WAS AMENDED IN 2012, SO 2013 A WHOLE NEW AGREEMENT WAS PUT IN PLACE, AND THEN MOST RECENTLY IN 2022 IS WHAT THE CURRENT COMPREHENSIVE AGREEMENT THAT WE HAVE IN PLACE TODAY. 
          THANK YOU. THE INTENT OF THE 2022 AGREEMENT WAS, AGAIN, A WHOLE LOOK AT ALL THE AGREEMENTS IN PLACE, WHAT'S WORKING, WHAT'S NOT WORKING. 
          DR. CHAPMAN WAS REALLY INVOLVED DEEPLY AND SUCCESSFULLY IN CHANGING HOW THE ENTIRE AGREEMENT OPERATED. 
          OVER THE YEARS, I DON'T KNOW IF IT HAD MUCH SUCCESS IN SOME ISSUES, SCHEDULING HAS ALWAYS BEEN A BIG ISSUE. 
          MAINTENANCE, I THINK NOT AS BIG AN ISSUE, BUT SCHEDULING WAS ALWAYS A BIG ONE.THEN AGAIN, PRIORITY OF USE BECAUSE THAT'S VERY IMPORTANT TO THE DISTRICT FOR EXAMPLES. 
          THEN NUMBER 4, YOU'LL SEE WHICH WE CAN DISCUSS A LITTLE BIT IS SERVICE LEVELS WITH ALL PARTIES JOINTLY MAINTAINING AND USING. 
          THERE'S A STANDARD OF LEVELS THAT THE SCHOOL DISTRICT FELT VERY IMPORTANT. 
          THAT ITSELF IS A FOUR PAGE APPENDIX. 
          AGAIN, THIS IS A VERY DETAILED DOCUMENT, IT'S ABOUT 20 PAGES, I DID NOT PRINT IT OUT FOR YOU ALL, IT'S JUST TOO MUCH. 
          BUT THE PRIMARY ISSUES THAT IT ADDRESSES, THE COMPREHENSIVE AGREEMENT THAT'S IN PLACE IS THE TERM, AND YOU CAN SEE THAT IT IS CURRENTLY IN EFFECT AND THAT WAS THE INITIAL FOUR YEAR TERM WITH AUTOMATIC 2 YEAR RENEWALS. 
          AGAIN, IT IS AN ONGOING AGREEMENT UNLESS IT CAN BE TERMINATED BY EITHER PARTY, SO EITHER TOWN COUNTY SCHOOL DISTRICT WITHIN 60 DAYS OF THE END OF THE THEN CURRENT TERM. 
          A SIGNIFICANT ISSUE FOR THE SCHOOL DISTRICT IS A PRIORITY OF USE AND THAT'S VERY CLEARLY SPELLED OUT, PER FIELD, PER FACILITY, SO THAT THE DISTRICT CAN ENSURE THAT IT HAS ALWAYS PRIORITY USE WHEN IT'S NEEDED. 
          BECAUSE AGAIN, THESE ARE FIELDS AND FACILITIES OWNED BY THE DISTRICT. 
          AGAIN, NUMBER 4 WAS SERVICE LEVELS. 
          DR. CHAPMAN CAN ANSWER QUESTIONS ABOUT THAT BECAUSE IT IS SO DETAILED, BUT REALLY WANTING TO MAKE SURE THE FIELDS ARE MAINTAINED IN A LEVEL SATISFACTORY TO THE DISTRICT. 
          AGAIN, WITH AN IMPORTANT PART OF THIS AGREEMENT IS THAT YOU RATHER THAN HAVE THE PARTIES EXCHANGE USE FEES OR RENTAL FEES, IT REALLY IS A COLLABORATIVE EFFORT FOR MAINTENANCE AND OPERATIONS AND THINGS LIKE THAT WHERE USE IS ALLOWED WITHOUT CHARGE, BUT THE COUNTY, FOR EXAMPLE, IS REQUIRED TO MAINTAIN TO THE SERVICE LEVELS. 
          MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS ARE DISCUSSED AND THEN SCHEDULING. 
          SO THAT'S AN OVERALL VIEW. THANK YOU. 
          >> SARA, IN SCHEDULING WE TOOK OVER WITH THIS [INAUDIBLE] 
          >> EXACTLY. BECAUSE IT CHANGED IN 2022 IS THAT IN THE PRIOR AGREEMENTS, IT WAS THE COUNTY WHO WAS IN CHARGE OF SCHEDULING AND THAT SIMPLY WAS NOT WORKING. 
          THERE'S CONFUSION. 
          THE DISTRICT DECIDED TO DO A BETTER JOB OF OUTLINING WHEN ITS NEEDS COULD BE MET AND THEN THE REST IS LEFT UP TO COMMUNITY USE. 
          YOU CAN SEE HERE AGAIN, AS I MENTIONED, NOT ALL FIELDS AND FACILITIES ARE PART OF THE AGREEMENT. 
          THE ONES TO THE LEFT ARE AND THEN THE ONES TO THE RIGHT ARE THE FIELDS AND FACILITIES THAT ARE NOT PART OF THE AGREEMENT. 
          THOUGH AGAIN, IF THERE WAS COMMUNITY USE NEEDED OF THOSE ON THE RIGHT, THEY SIMPLY COULD ASK UNDER THE RENTAL AGREEMENTS TO USE THOSE FIELDS. 
          THE FACILITIES ARE THE DAVEY JACKSON ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, COLTER GYM, AND MIDDLE SCHOOL GYM. ANDRE. THANK YOU. I POINT OUT DAVEY JACKSON SIMPLY BECAUSE THIS WAS AN EXAMPLE OF AGAIN COLLABORATION WHERE IT WAS CONSTRUCTED WITH SPET MONEY JUST SO IT COULD BE USED FOR COMMUNITY USE AND NOT FUNDED BY THE SCHOOL FACILITIES. 
          [01:20:03]
I BELIEVE IT WAS BIGGER, MORE CAPACITY THINGS THAT WOULD ALLOW FOR COMMUNITY USE RATHER THAN JUST STRICTLY SCHOOL USE. 
          I BELIEVE THAT'S NOW WHERE MOST OF THE ADULT RECREATION LEAGUES ARE HELD IN THE KIDS AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAMS, THINGS LIKE THAT. 
          AGAIN, IT WAS IMPORTANT IN THE AGREEMENT IN REGARD TO THE GYM JUST TO SPECIFY THAT TCSD STILL HAS PRIORITY USE AND IT'S PRIMARILY DEFINED AS SCHOOL YEAR SCHOOL HOURS AND THEN PARKS AND REC HAS USE AFTER THOSE TIMES. 
          ANDRE. THANK YOU. THE AGREEMENT ITSELF IS BROKEN DOWN INTO THREE SECTIONS, FIELDS, FACILITIES, AND THE POOL. 
          THE GENERAL TOPICS ADDRESSED FOR FACILITIES IS AGAIN CLEARLY DEFINED OWNERSHIP BY THE SCHOOL DISTRICT AND WHEREAS MOST OF THE FIELDS ARE LOCATED EITHER ON THIS CAMPUS, THAT AGAIN, IS UNDER THE I GUESS LEASE OF THE SCHOOL DISTRICT, BUT IT'S UNDER THE SCHOOL DISTRICT CONTROL. 
          THE AGREEMENT STATES THAT TOWN AND COUNTY, THEY'RE ALLOWED USE OF THE FIELDS AND EQUIPMENT ON THE FIELDS. 
          THEN AGAIN, A SECTION THAT REALLY DEFINES WHO'S RESPONSIBLE FOR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS AND THAT DR. CHAPMAN I DON'T RECALL WHAT PROMPTED THAT, BUT IT REALLY WAS A CLEAR DELINEATION AS IF THERE'S A MAJOR IMPROVEMENT NEEDED TO A FIELD. 
          SOMETHING AND WE DEFINED IT AS SOMETHING THAT INCREASES FUNCTION, SERVICE, USEFUL LIFE. 
          THAT'S CONSIDERED A COST THAT THE DISTRICT WILL BEAR, WHEREAS THE TOWN AND COUNTY IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL OTHER OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE COSTS. 
          BUT AGAIN, TO THE DETAILED SERVICE LEVELS AND I BELIEVE THAT'S STILL HOW IT'S WORKING. 
          THERE'S A PROVISION IN THERE, UNFORTUNATELY NECESSARY THOUGH I HOPE IT'S NOT USED OFTEN WHERE IF THERE'S DAMAGE OR VANDALISM, IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE PARTY FOR WHATEVER USE WAS AT THE TIME OF USE. 
          AGAIN, IF IT WERE A COMMUNITY FUNCTION AND SOMETHING HAPPENED TO A FIELD THAT WOULD BE ON PARKS AND REC TO REPAIR AND REPLACE. 
          AGAIN, PRIORITY OF USE THE SCHOOL DISTRICT HAS THROUGH THE ACADEMIC YEAR. 
          ARE THEY OUT THERE THIS YEAR? I HAVEN'T SEEN SKI TRACKS, [INAUDIBLE], BECAUSE YOU USED TO [LAUGHTER] THEY'RE NOT? DO THEY DO? 
          >> I THINK IT'S NOT QUITE ENOUGH, THE WHITE STUFF. 
          >> YEAH. I GUESS THEY SHOULD PROBABLY HAVE ICE SPRING THERE. 
          BUT DURING THIS ACADEMIC YEAR, IT'S REALLY THE SCHOOL HAS USED THOUGH AT ITS DISCRETION, SCHOOL DISTRICT MAY ALLOW THE TRACKS TO REMAIN THERE IN THE ICE SPRING IF NECESSARY IF THEY DON'T INTERFERE WITH USE. 
          AGAIN, WITH SCHEDULING AS CHAIR SCARLETT MENTIONED, THIS REALLY WAS THE BIGGEST CHANGE TO THE 2022 AGREEMENT WHERE TETON COUNTY SCHOOL DISTRICT HAS NOW TAKEN OVER THE SCHEDULING OF ALL USES. 
          WHAT WE PROPOSED IT IS NOW IN PLACE IS THAT TETON COUNTY PARKS AND REC WILL COME BY FEBRUARY 1 OF EACH YEAR TO SUBMIT NEEDS FOR SPRING, SUMMER, AND BY JUNE 1 OF EACH YEAR TO SUBMIT ITS COMMUNITY NEEDS FOR THE FALL AND WINTER. 
          ANOTHER COMPONENT THAT WAS ADDED IN THE NEWEST AGREEMENT WAS REALLY THE AGE PRIORITIZATION, WHICH IS I THINK IT WAS TRUSTEE MEADE THIS IS REALLY IMPORTANT. 
          WE REALLY FOCUS ON THE FACT THAT THE FIELDS AND FACILITIES ARE THERE FOR THE CHILDREN, STUDENTS OF TETON COUNTY SCHOOL DISTRICT SO THAT CHILDREN HAVE PRIORITY USE AND THEN SECONDARY TO ADULT RECREATION PROGRAMS. I THINK THAT WAS IMPORTANT TO CLARIFY, THAT'S BEEN AN ISSUE THAT'S BEEN FOLLOWED FOR THE MOST PART. 
          THE THANK YOU. THE SAME LAYOUT FOR THE FACILITIES, AGAIN, ACKNOWLEDGING OWNERSHIP. 
          PARKS AND REC IS ALLOWED USE. 
          AGAIN, THE SCHOOL DISTRICT RESPONSIBLE FOR LARGE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS, BUT IN THIS FOR FACILITIES, THE PARKS AND REC IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR MAINTAINING. 
          [01:25:05]
AND I THINK THAT'S EXCEPT FOR MAKING SURE THEY'RE RETURNED IN THE SAME CONDITION AND REQUIRED TO BE REIMBURSED FOR JANITORIAL SERVICES. 
          IT'S THE SCHOOL DISTRICT WHO, FOR OBVIOUS REASONS, MAINTAINS THE MAINTENANCE OF THE GYMS. AND I DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH THE MIDDLE SCHOOL CAFETERIA IS EVER USED, BUT IT'S PRIMARILY THE GYMS. AGAIN, THE CLAUSE FOR DAMAGE AND VANDALISM AND AGAIN, A STATEMENT ABOUT PRIORITY OF USE EXCEPT FOR THE DAY JACKSON GYM. 
          AND THAT'S LIMITED JUST TO SCHOOL HOUR. 
          SCHEDULING IS THE SAME FOR GYM USE TETON COUNTY SUBMITS AND THE AGE IS A PRIORITY BASED ON YOUNGEST TO OLDEST. 
          IN THE FINAL SECTION OF THE AGREEMENT IS THE POOL USE AND MAINTENANCE. 
          AND THIS CAME FROM, AGAIN, THE ORIGINAL, I FORGOT WHAT YEAR IT WAS 2000 SOMETHING AGREEMENT FOR POOL USE. 
          AND THIS CLEARLY STATES THAT THE DISTRICT HAS NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR MAINTENANCE OF THE POOL. 
          THE USES ARE, THE LEARN TO SWIM PROGRAM. 
          I'M SORRY, MY MOUTH IS SO DRY. 
          LEARN TO SWIM AND SWIM TEAM. AGAIN, I THINK THE LEARNED SWIM PROGRAM WAS ONE OF THE ORIGINAL INTENTS OF THE POOL USE AGREEMENT. 
          WHICH ALLOWS, AND I DON'T KNOW THE DETAILS ON THIS, BUT I THINK THE INTENT WAS TO ALLOW ALL AT LEAST ELEMENTARY SCHOOL AGE CHILDREN AN OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN TO SWIM. 
          AGAIN, THE DISTRICT, FOR THOSE PROGRAMS, WE'RE REQUIRED TO PAY THE LIFEGUARDS AND INSTRUCTORS. 
          BUT I THINK THAT'S STILL GOING WELL, ISN'T IT? THAT'S BEEN A KEY COMPONENT TO THIS ENTIRE HISTORICAL AGREEMENT ON THE REC CENTER. 
          THIS IS ANOTHER AREA THAT HISTORICALLY HAS BEEN AN ISSUE, BUT I BELIEVE IS WORKING WELL NOW, IS THE TIMES THAT THE SWIM TEAM HAS PRIORITY. 
          OVER THE YEARS IT HAS BEEN WORKED OUT NOT TO INTERFERE WITH PUBLIC SWIM. 
          THE AMOUNTS OF PRACTICES NEEDED AS A TEAM GROWS AND THERE'S DIVING TEAMS AND WHATNOT ADDED TO THAT PROGRAM. 
          AGAIN, THAT'S SOMETHING THAT MAY BE NEED CONTINUAL AMENDMENT, BUT AGAIN, THE DISTRICT HAS BEEN GRANTED THE RIGHT TO USE AND PRIORITY USE BECAUSE OF THE HISTORICAL RELATIONSHIPS IN LAND EXCHANGES AMONG THE PARTIES. 
          SCHEDULING IS DIFFERENT FOR THE POOL. 
          THIS IS WHERE THE TOWN AND COUNTY CONTROLS THE SCHEDULING FOR POOL USE. 
          AGAIN, THE DISTRICT IS REQUIRED TO SUBMIT ITS REQUESTS BY FEBRUARY, JUNE 1 FOR SWIM TEAM NEEDS AND NOVEMBER 1 FOR THE LEARNED TO SWIM PROGRAM. 
          MORTON BRIEF. THANK YOU. THE LAST ONE I THINK A VERY IMPORTANT PART OF THE AGREEMENT IS THAT THE DISTRICT RETAINS THE RIGHT TO REMOVE ANY FIELD OR FACILITY FROM THE AGREEMENT AT ANY TIME BASED ON NEEDS OR OTHER CIRCUMSTANCES THAT MAY ARISE. 
          THEN AGAIN, MY FINAL COMMENT IS THAT OF ALL THE AGREEMENTS I THINK I'VE WORKED ON OVER THE YEARS, THIS ONE HAS CONTINUED TO BE AMENDED FOR VARIOUS REASONS AGAIN AND AGAIN. 
          I FULLY SUSPECTED THE COMMUNITY NEEDS TO CHANGE, THE DISTRICTS NEEDS CHANGED. 
          THERE MAY BE ADDITIONAL FACILITIES OR FIELDS EVEN ADDED TO THE AGREEMENT THAT WILL JUST CONTINUE TO LOOK AT THE CITY AGREEMENT AS AN EVOLVING DOCUMENT TO ADDRESS AMONG THE PARTIES. 
          BUT AGAIN, THE AGREEMENT ITSELF IS SO DETAILED, IT'S WORKING. 
          I THINK WE'VE GOT IT TO A PLACE WHERE IT REALLY IS WORKING WELL, BUT FULLY ANTICIPATE THAT UNFORESEEN CIRCUMSTANCES WILL ARISE. 
          >> THANK YOU. QUESTIONS FOR SARA? YES, READ. 
          >> JIM SCARLETT. CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN IN THE CASE OF AN ACCIDENT, FOR INSTANCE, DROWNING? 
          >> IT MAY NOT BE THE FAULT OF THE FACILITY, BUT IT HAPPENED. 
          [01:30:07]
          >> VERY GOOD QUESTION. THANK YOU. 
          JIM SCARLETT, CHRISTIE DORNAN. 
          AGAIN, ONE OF THE PROVISIONS, AND I SHOULD HAVE REFERENCED THIS AS WELL, BUT ONE OF THE PROVISIONS WHICH WE ACTUALLY DID NEGOTIATE AT LENGTH WAS THE REQUIREMENT OF ALL PARTIES TO BE FULLY INSURED AND THEN HAVE MUTUAL INDEMNIFICATION ONE ANOTHER SO THAT IF THERE WERE AN ACCIDENT TO OCCUR, OBVIOUSLY, IT WOULD BE DEPENDENT ON THE CIRCUMSTANCES. 
          BUT AGAIN, EACH PARTY'S INSURED AND THEN WOULD INDEMNIFY EACH OTHER IF IT WERE FOR THE NEGLIGENT ACTS OR OMISSIONS [OVERLAPPING] 
          >> ALL STUDENTS ARE INSURED? 
          >> THE FACILITIES ARE INSURED. 
          AGAIN, IN THE INSTANCE OF A POOL, THE LIFEGUARDS, THEY'RE COVERED UNDER THE INSURANCE OF TETON COUNTY OR THE JOINT FACILITIES BOARD. 
          I'M NOT SURE WHICH ONE, BUT AGAIN, THAT THERE'S AT LEAST RESOURCES THERE IN THE EVENT AN ACCIDENT DID HAPPEN. 
          >> [INAUDIBLE] 
          >> THANK YOU. I HAVE A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS I GUESS. 
          ONE IS YOUR ADDRESS AT THE END ABOUT AMENDMENTS. 
          WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THE PRO ACHIEVEMENT CENTER, WHICH IS WE'VE GOTTEN SPECT FUNDINGS. 
          I ASSUME THAT WOULD PROBABLY GET AMENDED INTO THIS DOCUMENT WHENEVER THAT TIME COMES? 
          >> RIGHT. I ASSUME THAT WOULD REQUIRE A WHOLE OTHER AS I MENTIONED, IT'S FIELDS FACILITIES POOL. 
          I WOULD SUSPECT THAT WOULD BE AN ENTIRELY SEPARATE SECTION OF THE AGREEMENT AND ADDRESS IT BASED ON, AGAIN, USE HOURS. 
          >> YEAH. OKAY. 
          >> THAT KIND OF THING. 
          >> THEN THE OTHER QUESTION I HAD WAS YOU MENTIONED THE MAINTENANCE WHICH IS IN THE WHATEVER IT'S CALLED BEING VERY LENGTHY, WHICH IT IS [OVERLAPPING] 
          >> ALL SERVICE LEVELS? 
          >> YEAH. I THINK ONE OF THE ISSUES THAT HAS COME UP, WE'VE BEEN NOTIFIED ABOUT IT SEVERAL TIMES ABOUT THE POOL AND THE MAINTENANCE AND STANDARD OF CARE. 
          BUT LIKE A CONDITION THAT THAT IS IN, IS THAT SOMETHING THAT WE SHOULD LOOK AT ADDING FROM THE FIELD SECTION? IT SAYS TO PROVIDE SAFE, ABLE SURFACES THE GOAL. 
          THEY TALK ABOUT TRASH, THEY TALK ABOUT WHEN IS IT STRIKE AND ALL THAT, BUT WE REALLY DON'T HAVE ANYTHING IN THERE ABOUT HOW THE COUNTY IS GOING TO MAINTAIN IT FOR OUR USE. 
          WE TALK ABOUT A WORD OR BE MAINTAINED FOR US AND FOR THE COMMUNITY, BUT ABOUT THE POOL, WHICH IS WHAT'S BEEN BROUGHT UP SEVERAL TIMES. 
          >> RIGHT. THAT'S A GREAT POINT. 
          AGAIN, THAT WAS PROBABLY NOT THOROUGHLY ADDRESSED IN THE APPENDIX, THE SERVICE LEVELS, AND CERTAINLY BECAUSE IT HAS BECOME AN ISSUE. 
          AGAIN, WITH THE DISTRICT HAVING NO RESPONSIBILITY OR INVOLVEMENT IN THE MAINTENANCE AND OPERATIONS OF THE POOL, WE CERTAINLY COULD LOOK INTO SEEING THE CLARIFICATIONS THAT COULD ASSIST THERE. 
          BUT THAT IS THE ONE FACILITY THAT IS NOT MAINTAINED BY THE SCHOOL DISTRICT. 
          > OKAY. 
          >> SIENA. 
          >> I HAVE TWO QUESTIONS. I HAVE 60 DAYS BEFORE THE EXPIRATION SO THAT WOULD BE ROUGHLY OCTOBER 30TH OF 2025. 
          [OVERLAPPING] 
          >> THIS TERM BEGAN JANUARY 1ST, YOU'RE RIGHT. 
          >> 2022. THE CURRENT EXPIRATION IS 2026. 
          IF WE WANTED TO NOTIFY OF CHANGES OR ANYTHING, WE HAVE TO DO IT OCTOBER 30TH? 
          >> YES. THAT'S A GREAT POINT. 
          THIS AGREEMENT DOES NOT ALIGN WITH THE FISCAL YEAR OF THE ENTITIES WHICH IS ONE OF THE FEW THAT DOESN'T. 
          I DON'T RECALL WHY WE DID IT JANUARY 1ST OTHER THAN THE TIMING THAT THE AMENDMENTS OR THE NEW AGREEMENT WAS COMPLETE. 
          BUT THAT WOULD BE THE APPROPRIATE TIMELINE. 
          [OVERLAPPING] BUT AGAIN, THIS IS 2026? 
          >> WE HAVE VERY LITTLE WE CAN DO BETWEEN NOW JANUARY OF 2026, WE'RE MARRIED TO THIS DOCUMENT UNTIL THEN? YES. OTHER THAN THE PARTY CERTAINLY CAN'T AGREE TO AMENDMENTS AND CLARIFICATIONS [OVERLAPPING] 
          >> IF BOTH PARTIES ARE RECEPTIVE. 
          >> YES, I BELIEVE SO, AND THAT'S FULLY THE INTENT, AND THAT'S HOW IT'S WORKED. 
          IN THE PAST, IT'S BEEN A GREAT RELATIONSHIP WHERE I BELIEVE PARKS AND REC AND THE SCHOOL DISTRICT HAVE JUST SAT DOWN IN A NEEDS BASIS, HAS SAID, THIS IS WORKING, THIS ISN'T WORKING, THOSE KINDS OF THINGS. 
          BECAUSE AGAIN, THE NEEDS, THE USE, THE COMMUNITY PROGRAMS CONTINUALLY CHANGE. 
          AND SO THAT'S HOW IT'S WORKED IN THE PAST AND I WOULD FULLY ANTICIPATE THAT'S HOW IT WOULD CONTINUE TO WORK. 
          [01:35:02]
          >> WHAT'S THE ENFORCEMENT CLAUSE OF THE AGREEMENTS? FOR EXAMPLE, THE FIELDS QUITE OFTEN ARE LEFT AFTER A WEEKEND, PRETTY LITTERED WITH GARBAGE, HAVEN'T BEEN MAINTAINED. 
          THE GRASS HASN'T BEEN MAINTAINED AT A STANDARD THAT I WOULD FIND ACCEPTABLE AT MY HOUSE, LET ALONE FOR KIDS TO PLAY SOCCER UP HERE. 
          WHAT ARE OUR REMEDIES TO FIX THAT AND TO ENFORCE THAT? 
          >> THAT'S A GREAT QUESTION. 
          AGAIN, I'M NOT SURE HOW THAT ALL WORKS AS FAR AS NOTICE TO THE OTHER PARTIES AND WHOSE RESPONSIBILITY TRASH AND THINGS ARE AFTER A COMMUNITY USE, LET'S SAY SOCCER TOURNAMENT OR SOMETHING. 
          I THINK THAT UNDER THOSE CIRCUMSTANCES, IT'S SIMPLY BE A MATTER OF NOTIFYING, I ASSUME, PARKS AND REC IT'S THEIR RESPONSIBILITY AND FIND THAT WE BELIEVE THEY'RE IN BREACH OF THE SERVICE LEVEL STANDARDS, AND THAT WE WOULD SIT DOWN AND THEN NEED TO BE SURE AND FIGURE OUT A CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN, OR AN AMENDMENT TO THE AGREEMENT IF NECESSARY. 
          BUT I THINK IT'S WORKED PRETTY WELL IN THE PAST WHERE THERE HAVE BEEN ISSUES THAT IT SIMPLY IS KIND OF A CLARIFICATION OF WHAT'S NOT BEING DONE IN REQUEST FOR KNOWING WHY AND THEN HAVE A PLAN TO CORRECT THAT. 
          >> RIGHT NOW, THE SUPREME COURT JUST RULED IN LARAMIE WATER. WELL, DID YOU SEE THAT? 
          >> I DID NOT. 
          >> THE JACOB GOLF COURSE AGREEMENTS IN LARAMIE, GOING BACK TO THE UNIVERSITY HAS TO BUY WATER FROM THE TOWN LARAMIE. 
          THE TRUSTEES BOUGHT A PIECE OF LAND ADJACENT TO THE GOLF COURSE FROM THE EAST FARM AND WE DON'T HAVE ANY SORT OF AGREEMENTS ABOUT THESE FIELDS, DO WE? THAT WE HAVE TO BUY OUR WATER FROM THAT WE COULD DROP A WELL? 
          >> NO. THE WATER AT ONE POINT WAS ADDRESSED IN ONE OF THE PRIOR AGREEMENTS, IS NOT ADDRESSED IN ITS CURRENT AGREEMENT. 
          >> I JUST KNOW LOOKING AT IT FROM THE PAST, ONE OF THE PARTS OPERATION ISSUES THAT THE DISTRICT HAS HAD IS WE'VE BEEN REIMBURSING FOR THE WATER USE THAT WATER THESE FIELDS AND IT GETS QUITE PRICEY. 
          >> RIGHT. DR. CHAPMAN, DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING TO ADD ABOUT THAT? 
          >> I'M MAKING MYSELF A NOTE. 
          [LAUGHTER] 
          >> CHAIRMAN. 
          >> YES. 
          >> WHO IS THE REC DISTRICT REIMBURSING FOR THE COST OF THE WATER? 
          >> I BELIEVE THE PARKS AND REC. 
          >> I THINK SO. I'D HAVE TO LOOK. 
          >> THE BUDGET LADY KNOWS. 
          SHE'S SITTING BACK THERE SHAKING HER HEAD. 
          >> YES, PARKS AND REC. [LAUGHTER]. 
          >> DO YOU HAVE AN IDEA OF WHAT THE NUMBER IS? 
          >> I DO YOU REMEMBER THE REASON, BUT I DON'T MENTION. 
          >> IT'S A PIECE OF BURNED TIRE. 
          SO THAT PIECE HAS ALSO WORKED OVER THE YEARS, BUT I CAN LOOK IT BACK FOR YOU. 
          IT'S A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF IT. 
          WE HAVE A CONTRACT WITH PARKS AND REC WHERE WE ACTUALLY REQUEST THE MONEY, AND THEN THEY INVOICE US FOR THAT AMOUNT. 
          >> WHAT'S THE TOTAL AMOUNT? 
          >> ANNUAL OR STANDARD DEVIATION? 
          >> NO, THAT WAS SENT TO US. 
          >> TWO-FORTY. 
          >> TWO-FORTY IS THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF THE AGREEMENT. 
          >> TO THE REC DISTRICT. 
          >> ARE WE PAYING THE FULL AMOUNT OR ARE WE PAYING A PORTION? 
          >> WELL, THAT'S FOR EVERYTHING. 
          THAT'S FOR THE MAINTENANCE. 
          THEY PROVIDE THE WATER ALL OF IT. 
          >> OKAY. 
          >> WE COULD GET A BREAKDOWN OF WHAT THAT FULL AGREEMENT IS, THE TOTAL AMOUNT, AND WE CAN SEND THAT TO THE BOARD. 
          >> I THINK NOW THAT YOU'RE TALKING TO THE REC DISTRICT BOARD, WE'LL HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO SHARE ALL OF THAT [LAUGHTER] EVENTUALLY. 
          YEAH. I GOT SOMETHING ELSE BUT IT WENT. 
          >> CHAIR SCARLETT, AGAIN, I THINK IF THERE ARE A NUMBER OF ISSUES OR CONCERNS THAT THE DISTRICT FEELS SHOULD BE ADDRESSED AND AGAIN, EITHER AN AMENDMENT TO THE CURRENT AGREEMENT OR A CLARIFICATION OF ONE OF THE SERVICE LEVELS OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, I THINK IN THE PAST IT'S REALLY WORKED WELL WHERE THE PARTIES JUST SIT DOWN, AND IT'S USUALLY DR. CHAPMAN AND THE PARKS AND REC DIRECTOR, AND JUST SAY, LOOK, THIS IS NOT GOING WELL. 
          WE NEED THIS DONE. 
          IT'S BEEN ABLE TO BE WORKED OUT AT THAT LEVEL. 
          AGAIN, THIS AGREEMENT IS NOW HOW OLD, 30 PLUS, 40? [LAUGHTER] THAT'S REALLY HOW I WANTED TO START THE PRESENTATION ON THE AGREEMENT IS THE HISTORY IS INCREDIBLE. 
          I THINK IT SHOWS, AGAIN, THAT THERE'S BEEN A GOOD COOPERATIVE EFFORT BETWEEN THE PARTIES 
          [01:40:05]
SO THAT EVERYONE IN THE COMMUNITY CAN USE THE FIELDS AND FACILITIES. 
          THE DISTRICT HAS BEEN INCREDIBLY GENEROUS IN LETTING THE COMMUNITY HAVE ADULT RECREATION PROGRAMS, AND THERE'S NOT NEEDS TO EXPEND TAXPAYER DOLLARS TO BUILD NEW FIELDS AND GYMS JUST THAT ARE FOR ADULT LEAGUES OR THINGS TO THAT LEVEL. 
          >> WE USED THAT MUSIC FESTIVAL OUT THERE. 
          >> WHERE? 
          >> GRAND TETON MUSIC FESTIVAL. 
          >> YOU'RE RIGHT. [OVERLAPPING] 
          >> JULY. 
          >> ON THE 4TH OF JULY,. 
          >> BEHIND THE MIDDLE SCHOOL, I THOUGHT. 
          >> YEAH. WHICH WAS TO BOOST THE LEVEL OF COMMUNITY. 
          >> I KNOW. IT'S REALLY A GREAT COLLABORATIVE EFFORT. 
          THERE HAVE BEEN ISSUES OVER THE YEARS, BUT WE CONTINUE TO WORK WITH PARKS AND REC, AND I THINK FOR THE MOST PART, THEY'RE EASILY RESOLVED BASED ON AND AGAIN, FIRST AND FOREMOST, NEEDS OF THE DISTRICT, BUT THEN IT'S AGREEMENT TO ALLOW COMMUNITY USE WHEN NEEDED. 
          >> GREAT. THANK YOU. 
          >> YEAH. 
          >> IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE? 
          >> I'M SORRY. 
          >> OKAY. THANK YOU. 
          >> THANK YOU. 7: 45. 
          I THINK WE'RE MOVING INTO ACTION MATTERS. 
          >> WE ACTUALLY HAVE ONE MORE UPDATE [OVERLAPPING] ON OUR FACILITIES. 
          YES. SO DEANNA AND IAN. 
          >> HI, IAN. 
          >> YOUR CHAIRMAN, TRUSTEES, GOOD EVENING. 
          SO RUNNING THROUGH THE UPDATES ON THE HOUSING PROJECT, WE GOT BACK THE 95% COST ESTIMATE. 
          IT'S STILL TRACKING ON TARGET, BUT IT'S APPROXIMATELY 14 AND 1/2 MILLION. 
          SO EVERYTHING'S STILL WITHIN THE ORIGINAL BUDGET. 
          WE'LL BE PROCEEDING WITH BUILDING PERMIT APPLICATION ON 13TH OF FEBRUARY. 
          WE'RE CURRENTLY WORKING ON DEVELOPING THE CONSTRUCTION RFP WHICH WILL GO OUT MARCH 12TH. 
          WITH THE PLANNED CONSTRUCTION AND MOBILIZATION JUNE 24TH, AGAIN, CONTINGENT UPON THE BUILDING PERMIT PROCESS. ANY QUESTIONS? 
          >> CONGRATULATIONS. ANY QUESTIONS? GREAT. THANK YOU. 
          >> SO ON THE JACKSON HOLE HIGH SCHOOL EDITION, AS FAR AS THE CHAMPIONSHIP GYM, THEY'VE GOT A PRETTY GOOD FLOOR PLAN. 
          THEY'VE MADE THE CHANGES THROUGH DISCUSSIONS AS I THINK THAT ONE IS THE TENTATIVE FOR THE HIGH SCHOOL REMODEL PORTION AND THEY'VE SORT OF [OVERLAPPING]. 
          >> YOU HAVE THE GYM UP THERE? 
          >> LET ME SEE IF I CAN. 
          >> NO. 
          >> THE OTHER ATTACHMENT, IF YOU WOULD. 
          YEAH. DO THE BRONC CENTER BUILDING. I THINK IT'S STILL ON THERE. 
          >> THAT'S THE GYM. 
          >> THAT'S THE GYM, AND IT'S BEEN WORKED ON AND MODIFIED WITH INPUT FROM THE TEAM REARRANGING THE LOCKER ROOMS. THE REST ROOM'S SIZE MEETS THE OCCUPANCY REQUIREMENT. 
          THAT'S THE TEMPLATE THAT THEY'RE EVALUATING NOW AND THEY'RE CURRENTLY WORKING ON SCHEDULING TO PROVIDE A SCHEDULE ON DESIGN SERVICES FOR THAT PORTION. 
          I BELIEVE ONE OF THE OTHER ONES WAS A 3D MARKER OF THE EXTERIOR. 
          SO THAT ONE'S PROGRESSING. ANY QUESTION? 
          >> JUST REMIND ME OF THE SCHEDULE FOR WHEN WE GET A COST ESTIMATE. 
          >> ONCE ALL OF THE PRELIMINARY HAS BEEN DONE, THAT'S WHAT THEY'RE CURRENTLY WORKING ON IS WITH ALL THE ENGINEERS AND THEIR ENTIRE TEAM TO DEVELOP A SCHEDULE ON WHEN WE CAN START TO EXPECT THE PER SE COMPLETE IN THE COST ESTIMATE. 
          >> SURE. 
          >> AS OF LAST WEEK, THAT WAS THEIR NEXT PRIORITY. 
          >> GREAT. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS ON THE CENTER, JEFF? 
          >> ON THE TRANSPORTATION CENTER, WE RECEIVED THREE PROPOSALS THAT ARE CURRENTLY BEING REVIEWED. 
          WE'LL INTERVIEW THE SHORT-LISTED FIRMS ON 27TH OF FEBRUARY WITH THE INTENT OF BRINGING THE PROPOSED DESIGN FIRM BEFORE THE BOARD IN MARCH FOR APPROVAL. 
          >> WE'RE ROLLING. 
          >> THE STABLE PROJECT, WE HELD THE PRE-PROPOSAL CONFERENCE YESTERDAY. 
          [01:45:04]
THERE WERE SEVEN FIRMS ATTEND, SO WE HAD A PRETTY GOOD LOCAL SUPPORT FOR THAT ONE. 
          WE'LL EXPECT THE PROPOSALS FOR THAT ONE ON 21ST OF FEBRUARY WITH THE INTENT OF BRINGING A PROPOSAL BEFORE THE BOARD IN MARCH FOR THAT ONE ALSO. 
          >> ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT? 
          >> THANK YOU. 
          >> THANK YOU. 
          >> NOW, WE'RE DONE. 
          >> NOW WE'RE DONE. DO YOU WANT TO TAKE FIVE MINUTES, STRETCH YOUR LEGS? SHOULD WE TAKE A FIVE-MINUTE RECESS OR SHOULD WE JUST POWER THROUGH? KEITH? 
          >> OKAY. 
          >> POWER THROUGH. 
          >> READY TO VOTE? 
          >> I BELIEVE IT'S ACTIONS. 
          [E. Action Items]
          >> YES. THE FIRST ITEM ON THE AGENDA FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION, TRUSTEES, IS THE 2024- 2025 SCHOOL YEAR. 
          THE CALENDAR START AND END DATE YOU'VE ALREADY APPROVED, BUT THIS APPROVES THE HOLIDAYS, THE TEACHER IN-SERVICE DAYS, AND THE SECONDARY FLEX FRIDAYS. 
          THAT'S VERY SIMILAR TO THE CURRENT YEAR CALENDAR WITH SMALL ADJUSTMENTS THAT ARE BASED ON THE FEDERAL HOLIDAYS. 
          WE'VE HAD A LOT OF INPUT FROM BUILDING ADMINISTRATORS AS WELL AS THE SUPERINTENDENT ADVISORY COUNCIL. 
          WE'VE TAKEN INPUT AND MADE ADJUSTMENTS. 
          I COULD BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY DETAILS, BUT OTHERWISE, IT'S OUR RECOMMENDATION THAT THIS CALENDAR BE CONSIDERED FOR APPROVAL. 
          >> ANY QUESTIONS FOR SUPERINTENDENT CHAPMAN? NO QUESTION. 
          IS THERE ANY PUBLIC COMMENT ON THIS 2024-2025 PROPOSED CALENDAR? ANY PUBLIC COMMENT? ANYBODY ONLINE? NOBODY ONLINE. 
          I WILL CLOSE PUBLIC COMMENT. 
          BACK TO THE BOARD. WE HAVE A MOTION. 
          >> MR. CHAIR, I MOVE TO APPROVE THE 2024-2025 SCHOOL YEAR CALENDAR AS PRESENTED TO ALL. 
          >> I'LL SECOND. 
          >> IT'S BEEN BY TRUSTEE ABRAMS AND SECONDED BY BETSY CARLIN TO APPROVE THE 24-25 SCHOOL CALENDAR AS PRESENTED. 
          ANY TRUSTEE DISCUSSION? MY ONLY COMMENT IS I KNOW THIS IS BAKED FROM THE CAKE. 
          I REALLY WANT THE COMMENTS THAT OUR STUDENT SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS MADE US AT THE LAST MEETING REGARDING THE START TIME AND THE AP SCHEDULES. 
          I HOPE THE BOARD WILL TAKE THAT INTO CONSIDERATION AS WE LOOK INTO THE '25-'26 SCHOOL YEAR. 
          I KNOW THAT AP TIME, POST AP TEST TO THE END OF SCHOOL IS NO MAN'S LAND FOR A LOT OF THESE [INAUDIBLE] STUDENTS, AND I THINK IT WOULD BE BEHOOVE US TO LISTEN TO THE STUDENTS AND CONSIDER POSSIBLE CHANGES FOR YEARS GOING FORWARD. 
          WITH THAT, ALL THOSE IN FAVOR OF THE MOTION TO APPROVE THE CALENDAR AS PRESENTED, WE SAY AYE. 
          >> AYE. 
          >> ANY OPPOSED? 
          >> OKAY. NEXT ITEM, CONSIDERATION OF POINT CONTRACT AMENDMENT AND PURCHASE ORDER. DIRECTOR ARCHER. 
          >> GOOD EVENING, MR. CHAIR, TRUSTEES. 
          I HAVE FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION TONIGHT A CHANGE ORDER FROM POINT ARCHITECTS FOR THE 24 UNIT HOUSING PROJECT. 
          AS YOU MAY RECALL, AS PART OF THE PERMITTING PROCESS, THE TOWN REQUIRED US TO BY THE DISTRICT COMPLETE A TRAFFIC STUDY. 
          POINT ARCHITECTS HAS BEEN COORDINATING THAT WITH THE HELP OF JORGENSEN ARCHITECTS. 
          THEY ARE PASSING THAT COST ONTO THE DISTRICT FOR LEGITIMATE REASONS. 
          WE DID NOT ANTICIPATE THAT WHEN WE WENT UNDER CONTRACT WITH THEM. 
          WE'RE REQUESTING APPROVAL OF THE CHANGE ORDER FOR $42,550. 
          AND MY LAST COMMENT, AND I'LL STAND FOR QUESTIONS, IS WE DO HAVE FUNDING TO COVER THE COST OF THIS WITH OUR PROJECT PLANNING BUDGET. 
          WE HAVE APPROXIMATELY $75,000 THAT WE HAVE EARMARKED FOR OWNERS OVERHEAD FOR ITEMS LIKE THIS, AND WITH THAT I STAND FOR QUESTIONS. 
          >> ANY QUESTIONS FOR DIRECTOR ARCHER? 
          >> MR. CHAIR? 
          [01:50:02]
          >> YES. 
          >> DIRECTOR ARCHER? DO YOU FORESEE FOR ANY OF THE OTHER PROJECTS THAT WE HAVE TEMPLATED, ESPECIALLY FOR THE OTHER TRANSPORTATION CENTER, STABLE, ARE THERE ANY OTHER TYPE OF TRAFFIC STUDIES THAT THE TOWN MIGHT ASK US TO DO THAT WE SHOULD BE LOOKING AT AS WELL? 
          >> MR. CHAIR AND TRUSTEE, YES. 
          I THINK THAT IS A VERY LIKELY SCENARIO, KNOWING THAT BOTH GREGORY LANE AND HIGH SCHOOL ROAD, WE'VE IDENTIFIED BOTH THE DISTRICT AND THE TOWN AS POTENTIALLY NEEDING SOME IMPROVEMENT OR SOME STUDY. 
          I KNOW THE TOWN HAS A PLAN FOR GREGORY LANE, BUT AT THIS POINT, I'M NOT AWARE OF A PLAN TO MITIGATE TRAFFIC ON HIGH SCHOOL ROAD. 
          YES, I THINK WE CAN PLAN ON THAT. 
          >> THANK YOU. 
          >> MR. CHAIR, I'LL JUST ADD A COMMENT. 
          THE COUNTY AND TOWN ARE WORKING ON A TRAFFIC STUDY FOR THE WHOLE AREA, AND THEY'RE LOOKING AT. 
          >> THANK YOU. 
          >> YEAH. 
          >> YOU'RE RIGHT. 
          >> AREAS THAT PEOPLE HAVE IDENTIFIED AS PROBLEMS AND THEN THE TRAFFIC [OVERLAPPING] START LOOKING AT MITIGATION FOR HIGH SCHOOL ROAD AND THE WHOLE WEST JENSEN. 
          >> OKAY. 
          >> THERE'S A TRANSPORTATION EXPO GOING ON THERE NOW [OVERLAPPING] [LAUGHTER] FIND OUT ALL ABOUT THESE PROJECTS. 
          >> THAT'S LOVELY. [LAUGHTER] IF THEY ARE PLANNING A TRAFFIC STUDY, WHY ARE WE PAYING $42,550 TRAFFIC STUDY. [LAUGHTER] 
          >> THE TRAFFIC, IT'S AN OVERALL PLANNING STUDY, THIS WOULD BE JUST FOR THAT, AND ACTUALLY THE QUESTION I HAD IS THAT IS IT JUST GOING TO INCLUDE THE HOUSING UNIT WE'RE PROPOSING NOW OR WILL THEY BE LOOKING AT THE OTHER TWO FUTURE SO THAT WE DON'T HAVE TO DO IT AGAIN WHEN THOSE OTHER TWO COME ON MORE HOPEFULLY IN THE FUTURE. 
          >> THANK YOU. EXCELLENT QUESTION, AND THANK YOU FOR BRINGING UP THAT COUNTY TOWN STUDY. 
          NOW FOR THIS PROJECT, THEY ARE JUST CONSIDERING THE 24 UNIT HOUSING PROJECT. 
          I'D SAY THE TEAM, WE SPOKE A LOT ABOUT THAT, WHETHER WE WANTED TO BRING AN ENTIRE MASTER PLAN FORWARD OR WHETHER IT WAS IN OUR BEST INTEREST TO PUT BEFORE THEM WHAT WE KNOW WE'RE GOING TO BUILD, AND THEN WAIT UNTIL THE FUTURE, AND THAT IS THE DIRECTION WE ENDED UP GOING. 
          BUT TO ADD MY PERSONAL VIEW, WE HAVE A GOOD WORKING RELATIONSHIP WITH THE TOWN OF JACKSON AND THE TOWN ENGINEER, AND WE HAD QUITE A FEW DISCUSSIONS ABOUT SOUTH PARK LOOP ROAD, AND WHAT'S POTENTIALLY GOING TO HAPPEN ALONG THAT ROAD IN THE FUTURE. 
          SO WE COMMONLY AGREED THAT I THINK REALLY WHEN AND IF WE BRING FUTURE DEVELOPMENT, WE'LL PLAN FOR THAT TO ACTUALLY HAPPEN, THINGS MIGHT BE A LOT DIFFERENT AND IT MIGHT NOT BE NEEDED LIKE IT IS RIGHT NOW. 
          IT'S A LOT OF WORDS ACTUALLY IF YOU BELIEVE. [LAUGHTER] 
          >> MR. CHAIR, DIRECTOR ARCHER, IF I HAVE MY DIRECTIONS CORRECT, WHERE WE ARE LOOKING AT BUILDING THIS HOUSING. 
          JUST KIND OF I GUESS EAST OF IT THERE'S A NEW APARTMENT BUILDING THERE. 
          WAS THERE A TRAFFIC STUDY DONE FOR THAT THAT MAYBE WE COULD USE TO HELP REDUCE THE COST OF $42,550? [LAUGHTER]. 
          >> MR. CHAIR AND TRUSTEE ABRAMS, I ASKED THAT EXACT QUESTION AND I WOULD SAY WE HAD A LOT OF LIVELY DISCUSSION ON WHY THIS TRAFFIC STUDY IS REQUIRED, AND YOU PUT IN THE BUS LIGHT IT TURNS OUT THAT FROM MY BEST UNDERSTANDING, THAT THE REASON FOR THE TRAFFIC STUDIES IS TO LOOK AT THE ENTIRE ROAD, AND THAT TYPE OF IMPACT IN THE TOWN IS LOOKING AT WHAT THOSE INTERSECTIONS MIGHT LOOK LIKE, BUT IT ALSO IMPACTS ON WHETHER YOU NEED A TURNING LANE AND THAT TYPE OF DESIGN FOR YOUR DEVELOPMENT. 
          THAT SEEMS TO BE FROM THEIR EXPLANATION WHY WE HAVE TO DO ONE FOR OUR BUILDING, BECAUSE THAT PIECE IS NOT INCLUDED. 
          IT'S REALLY LOOKING AT THAT DEVELOPMENT AND WHAT TURNING LANE YOU NEED, HOW MUCH DISTANCE FROM OTHER INTERSECTIONS AND THAT TYPE OF THING. 
          >> IT IS. 
          >> I TRIED. 
          >> THANK YOU FOR TRYING. I APPRECIATE ALL OF YOUR WORK IN COORDINATING WITH THE TRAFFIC [OVERLAPPING]. 
          >> THANK YOU. 
          >> THE OTHER QUESTIONS YOU'D LIKE TO ARGUE? OKAY, THANK YOU. 
          >> THANK YOU. 
          >> WE OPEN UP FOR PUBLIC COMMENTS. 
          ANY PUBLIC COMMENT ON BUILDING A TRAFFIC STUDY, OR PAYING FOR A TRAFFIC STUDY RIGHT OUT HERE ON SOUTH PARK LOOP ROAD.

          COMING BACK TO THE BOARD, DO WE HAVE A MOTION, PLEASE?

          DISCUSSION. NONE IN DISCUSSION. 
          >> I JUST WANT TO SAY, I UNDERSTAND WE HAVE TO DO THIS, BUT FOR THE AMOUNT THAT WE HAVE RESERVED AND WHERE CONSTRUCTION COSTS ARE, IT JUST CONCERNS ME WITH WHERE IT WILL TAKE US WITH THE BUDGET OF BUILDING THE UNITS. 
          I'M THOROUGHLY EXCITED THAT WE ARE EXECUTING BUILDING THOSE UNITS, DEFINITELY NEED THEM. 
          WE'LL BE VERY CONCERNED ABOUT WHERE THIS PLACES US WITH OUR ROOM CONTINGENCY. I JUST WANT TO SAY THAT. 
          >> ANY OTHER COMMENTS, TRUSTEE ZUNG? 
          >> I HAVE TO ECHO THAT, AND THE FACT THAT IT MIGHT SHOW HOPEFULLY IT DOESN'T, THAT WE NEED TURNING LANES, I CAN RELATE. 
          >> YES. 
          >> THAT'S MORE THAN $75,000. 
          >> JUST THE TRUSTEE DOOR. 
          >> I JUST THINK $42,000 IS A LOT OF MONEY FOR THIS, BUT I APPRECIATE THE QUESTIONS. 
          >> ANY OTHER COMMENTS OR DISCUSSION? WELL, WITH THAT WE'LL VOTE.

          >> I'D SAY PROBABLY NO [INAUDIBLE] I FORGOT WHAT'S GOING ON. 
          I'M JUST VERY AGREEABLE. 
          [LAUGHTER]. 
          >> THAT MOTION HAS FAILED. NEXT IS A CONSIDERATION OF PERSONAL SETTLEMENT REQUEST AS DISCUSSED IN EXECUTIVE SESSION. I'LL TAKE A MOTION.

          >> I'M OKAY? 
          >> YEAH, COME ON UP. 
          >> I FEEL OKAY, I'M ALL SETUP. 
          >> YEAH, COME UP, JAMES. 
          >> I THINK I KNOW WHAT THIS IS ABOUT. 
          >> YEAH, I'M ON THE COMPLETELY AGENDA ITEM, 
          [02:00:01]
SO I'M NOT SURE WHAT'S GOING ON THERE. 
          MY NAME IS JAMES MOSQUILLO. 
          THANKS FOR HAVING ME, CHAIR SCARLETT, TRUSTEES. 
          I WISH I COULD SHARE THE COUNSEL'S SPIRIT ON ALL THINGS ABOUT THIS AGREEMENT FIRST BECAUSE I BELIEVE THE GENESIS AGREEMENT OFFERED TO SCHOOL DISTRICT A POOL IN PERPETUITY. 
          FROM THE INCEPT OF GIVING THIS LAND, THE FOCUS OF THAT REC CENTER WAS THE POOL. 
          I GOT HERE IN '93, SO IT WAS ALREADY GOING, BUT THAT WAS THE POOL. 
          SO MY IMPLORATION TO YOU IS TO GET THIS THING OPENED UP SO YOU CAN PROTECT THAT PERPETUITY. 
          I THINK IT'S IN JEOPARDY, I REALLY DO. 
          AND AS A TAXPAYER, SOME OF OUR RESOURCES ARE SO OVERBURDENED. 
          I DON'T THINK IT'S A BENEFIT TO THE TAXPAYER. I'LL PICK ON THE POOL. 
          WE COULD USE TWO OR EVEN THREE POOLS WITH ANOTHER ELEMENTARY SCHOOL IN THE THINGS GOING ON. 
          AND IF YOU COMPARE OUR POOL TO OTHER 4A POOLS, WE'RE SECOND WORST IN THE STATE. 
          THE TRONE IS THE ONLY POOL THAT'S IN 4A THAT'S LESS FACILITY THAN OURS. 
          SO WE'RE AT THE BOTTOM OF IT, WE REALLY ARE. 
          AGAIN, NOT BEING ABLE TO GO BACK BEFORE THIS AGREEMENT, I'LL PICK ON THIS AGREEMENT A BIT BECAUSE TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE, THE SCHOOL DISTRICT MISSED THEIR SCHEDULE SUBMISSION DATE, WHICH REALLY LED TO THE POOL BEING CLOSED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SWIM SEASON. 
          BECAUSE THERE'S A PRIORITY OF USE, AND THERE'S A DEMAND FOR SCHEDULE SUBMISSION. 
          SO I DON'T KNOW IF THERE'S ANY SUMMER USE, BUT THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN IN FEBRUARY 1 FOR ANY SCHOOL DISTRICT NEEDS AT THE POOL THIS SUMMER. 
          SO THOSE ARE ALL LAID OUT. 
          AND THEN TWO THINGS THAT I THINK WERE MISSED OR MAYBE THAT I DIDN'T HEAR. 
          THE FEES YOU'RE PAYING TO USE THAT POOL, THE SWIM TEAM AND THE LETTERING SWIM PROGRAM ARE UNJUST. 
          THEY'RE NOT IN THE AGREEMENT. 
          TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE, YOU'RE PAYING PER SWIMMER. 
          IT'S EXPLICITLY LAID OUT IN THERE. 
          YOU ARE SPLITTING THEIR COST FOR LIFEGUARDS. 
          RIGHT NOW, IF YOU LOOK, AND I THINK YOU'LL FIND THAT THERE'S A LOT OF OTHER CHARGES YOU'RE PAYING THAT AREN'T NECESSARY. 
          ALSO, THERE IS A POSSIBILITY OF TERMINATING THAT AGREEMENT EARLIER FOR BREACH. 
          THERE'S A BREACH CLAUSE IN THERE AND HOW YOU TERMINATE IT. 
          AND I KNOW LAST TIME WE TALKED THAT THEY MIGHT NOT BE INTERESTED IN OPENING THIS AGREEMENT, BUT I REALLY THINK THE BIG GORILLA IN THIS ROOM, AND THAT GORILLA DOESN'T HAVE A SWIM CAP ON BECAUSE IT'S MECHANICAL, IS THERE IS LITERALLY 15 TO $20 MILLION IN IMPROVEMENTS NECESSARY FROM THE PARKS AND REC DIRECTOR BEFORE 2030. 
          THEY'RE NOT PLANNING FOR THAT. 
          THE SPET IS NOT READY FOR THIS. IT'S ALL BACKED. 
          AND SO AGAIN, WHEN I FEEL THAT I DON'T NEED TO COME HERE ANYMORE, I'M GOING TO GO THERE AND START PICKING ON THEM BECAUSE THAT'S A LOT OF MONEY IN A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME WITH NO PLAN. 
          BECAUSE I'M HEARING ABOUT THE GROWTH, I'M HEARING ABOUT HOUSING, I'M HEARING ABOUT HOW PROACTIVE YOU GUYS ARE, AND I'M SEEING ALL THE HURDLES AND POTHOLES YOU GUYS ARE CHALLENGED WITH. 
          IT'S NOT EASY, NOTHING'S EASY. 
          AND OVER THERE, IT'S GOING TO BE ALL ABOUT THE GLORY OF AN OPULENT ROCK GYM, AND IT'S NOT GOING TO BE FOR THE POOL. 
          AND AT THE END OF THE DAY, EVEN IF THAT POOL IS RUNNING, IT'S STILL ONLY ONE POOL FOR THIS WHOLE COMMUNITY. 
          SO I DON'T CARE IF IT PRIORITIZE KIDS OVER ADULTS BUT THEN SCHOOL KIDS HAVE THE PRIORITY, IT'S NOT ENOUGH FOR THIS VALLEY. 
          AND I DON'T WANT TO PUT THAT ALL ON YOU GUYS, BUT AGAIN, THAT'S THE ONLY ONE AND I THINK IT NEEDS TO BE PROTECTED. 
          AND SO THE BIGGEST NEED TO OPEN UP THAT AGREEMENT, BECAUSE MAYBE THE SOFTBALL, GIRLS VARSITY SOFTBALL IS GOING TO MAKE A DEMAND TO OPEN IT UP, IS GET A LEVEL OF SERVICE FOR THE POOL. 
          IF THAT'S THE ONLY PART OF THAT WHOLE AGREEMENT, DOESN'T HAVE A LEVEL OF SERVICE, IS PROBABLY THE ONE THAT NEEDS THE MOST DEFINED LEVEL OF SERVICE. 
          AGAIN, THANKS FOR HAVING ME. 
          SIX TO SEVEN, MAYBE I'LL SEE YOU NEXT MONTH BUT THANK YOU. 
          >> OTHER PUBLIC COMMENTS? ANYBODY HAVE ANY OTHER PUBLIC COMMENTS, ANYTHING ONLINE? OKAY, WE WILL CLOSE PUBLIC COMMENT. 
          COMMUNICATIONS FROM THE BOARD. 
          WE RECEIVE A VERY GREAT LETTER FROM A COUPLE OF YOUNG LADIES AT THE MIDDLE SCHOOL WITH A GREENHOUSE PLAN. 
          AND I KNOW DR. CHAPMAN FOLLOWED UP WITH THEM FOR THE HIGH SCHOOL OR THE MIDDLE SCHOOL OR BOTH. 
          >> THIS IS A MIDDLE SCHOOL PROPOSAL. 
          >> IT'S A MIDDLE SCHOOL PROPOSAL, BUT WAS IT FOR THE HIGH SCHOOL? 
          >> NOPE. THESE ARE TWO STUDENTS THAT PUT TOGETHER AND THEY HAD SOME ASSISTANCE IN THE COMMUNITY AND THROUGH THE FUND FOR PUBLIC EDUCATION. 
          PROBABLY ONE OF THE BEST BUSINESS PLANS I HAVE EVER SEEN. 
          IT WAS IMPRESSIVE. 
          THEY COVERED ALL BASIS, AND HOPEFULLY WE'LL BE ABLE TO SECURE SOME FUNDING AND REALIZE THIS GOAL FOR THE STUDENTS NEXT YEAR. 
          [02:05:06]
SO IT WAS OUTSTANDING, AND I THINK IT'S A PROJECT THAT THE SCHOOL BOARD WOULD BE EXCITED TO SUPPORT AS WELL. 
          >> MRS. MCGREGOR AND MISS MERRITT DESERVE A LOT OF CREDIT FOR THEIR HARD WORK ON THIS. 
          >> YES, ABSOLUTELY. 
          >> NICE JOB, MR. ULSHER. 
          AND THEN WE RECEIVED A STUDENT LETTER ABOUT THE ANNUAL STUDENT CURATED ART SHOW. 
          I'M NOT SURE IF ANYBODY HAS ATTENDED THAT. 
          >> IT'S OUTSTANDING. 
          I WOULD HIGHLY ENCOURAGE. 
          I THINK IT'S UP THROUGH THE, I WANT TO SAY FEBRUARY 18 MIGHT BE THE LAST DAY, BUT IT'S AT THE WILDLIFE MUSEUM. 
          AND IT'S REALLY INCREDIBLE PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN LAHAINA AND OUR SCHOOL DISTRICT. 
          AND THE STUDENTS IN LAHAINA WROTE POEMS ABOUT THE FIRE. 
          AND OUR STUDENTS INTERPRETED THOSE POEMS THROUGH ART. 
          AND IT'S INCREDIBLY MOVING AND IT'S AN EXCEPTIONAL EXHIBIT. 
          >> THAT'S CORRECT. 
          >> I CAN'T THINK OF THE WORD. 
          >> COMMUNICATIONS FROM THE BOARD. 
          ANYBODY FOR THE GOOD OF THE ORDER. 
          FUTURE AGENDA ITEMS, SCHEDULING AND TOPICS. 
          ANYTHING, ANY IDEAS FOR THE FUTURE? THANK FOR DR. CHRIS FOR HIS EDUCATIONAL MOMENT. 
          >> A TIMER [LAUGHTER]. 
          >> SHOULD WE RENAME IT THE EDUCATIONAL MOMENT IN THE HALF? [LAUGHTER]. 
          >> EXCELLENT. 
          >> OKAY, REVIEW OF MEETING. 
          >> GOOD LUCK. 
          >> EXCELLENT, IT'S AN HONOR TO SERVE WITH YOU. ADVANCED PLANNING. 
          [H. Advanced Planning]
          >> NO CHANGES FROM THE CALENDAR. 
          >> TRUSTEE DOERNER, WOULD YOU LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO BAN? 
          >> NO. 
          [LAUGHTER]. 
          >> WE'RE HAPPY TO STAY LONGER.
