Consideration and Possible Action Regarding the Termination of a Term Contract Employee for Good Cause, as Determined by the Board, Pursuant to Section 21.211 of the Texas Education Code and Board Policies DFBA(LEGAL) and DFBA(LOCAL) Presenter: Johnny Hill, Deputy Superintendent for Business and Employee Services]

ITEM 8.1 CONSIDERATION AND POSSIBLE ACTION REGARDING THE TERMINATION OF A TERM CONTRACT EMPLOYEE FOR GOOD CAUSE AS DETERMINED BY THE BOARD PURSUANT TO SECTION 21.211 OF THE TEXAS EDUCATION CODE AND BOARD POLICIES DFBA LEGAL AND DFBA LOCAL.

JOHNNY, I BELIEVE YOU'RE GOING TO HANDLE THIS.

YES, SIR. PRESIDENT STARLING, MEMBERS OF THE BOARD.

ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDS CONSIDERATION AND POSSIBLE ACTION THIS EVENING REGARDING THE TERMINATION OF ROBERT ROBINSON FOR GOOD CAUSE AS DETERMINED BY THE BOARD PURSUANT TO SECTION 21.211 OF THE TEXAS EDUCATION CODE AND BOARD POLICIES DFBA LEGAL AND DFBA LOCAL.

THANK YOU, JOHNNY.

IS THERE A MOTION? I MOVE THAT THE BOARD OF TRUSTEE APPROVES THE TERMINATION OF RR, A TERM CONTRACT EMPLOYEE PURSUANT TO SECTION 21211 OF THE TEXAS EDUCATION CODE AND BOARD POLICIES. DFBA LEGAL AND DFBA LOCAL.

SO LET ME PAUSE THERE ACTUALLY, AND ANGELA, IF YOU COULD, INSTEAD OF RR, WE ACTUALLY NEED TO SAY THE NAME.

[INAUDIBLE] YEAH.

YES, SIR. SO.

SO THE NAME IS ROBERT ROBINSON.

YEAH, ANGELA, IF YOU COULD RESTATE THE MOTION, PLEASE.

OKAY. LET ME RESTATE THAT.

I MOVE THAT THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES APPROVES THE TERMINATION OF ROBERT ROBINSON, A TERM CONTRACT EMPLOYEE, PURSUANT TO SECTION 21211 OF THE TEXAS EDUCATION CODE AND BOARD POLICIES DFBA LEGAL AND DFBA LOCAL.

I SECOND. THANK YOU.

I HAVE A MOTION BY ANGELA POWELL, SECONDED BY NANCY HUMPHREY THAT THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES APPROVES THE TERMINATION OF ROBERT ROBINSON, A TERM CONTRACT EMPLOYEE PURSUANT TO SECTION 21.211 OF THE TEXAS EDUCATION CODE AND BOARD POLICIES DFBA LEGAL AND DFBA LOCAL.

ALL IN FAVOR, PLEASE RAISE YOUR HAND.

THE MOTION PASSES UNANIMOUSLY, 6 TO 0.

[8.2. Consider All Matters Incident and Related to Declaring Expectation to Reimburse Expenditures with Proceeds of Future Debt, Including the Adoption of a Resolution Pertaining Thereto Presenter: Johnny Hill, Deputy Superintendent for Business and Employee Services]

DISCUSSION AND ACTION ITEM 8.2, WE WILL CONSIDER ALL MATTERS INCIDENT AND RELATED TO DECLARING EXPECTATION TO REIMBURSE EXPENDITURES WITH PROCEEDS OF FUTURE DEBT, INCLUDING THE ADOPTION OF A RESOLUTION PERTAINING THERETO.

JOHNNY, I'M SURE YOU'RE GOING TO EXPLAIN WHAT THAT CONFUSING TITLE MEANS.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MR. STOLLE, BOARD MEMBERS, I'LL TRY TO BE BRIEF ON THIS ONE, ALTHOUGH I COULD TALK A LONG TIME ON IT.

I WOULD SIMPLY SAY THAT OBVIOUSLY WE HAVE GONE INTO A NEW PLATFORM FOR OUR ERP AND OUR SIS SYSTEMS, WHICH IS SIMPLY OUR STUDENT SYSTEMS AND OUR HR AND FINANCE SYSTEMS SOFTWARES.

ONE OF THE THINGS WE'D LIKE TO DO IS IF HOPEFULLY IF THE BOND PASSES IN NOVEMBER, WE WOULD LIKE TO TAKE THOSE MONIES AND REIMBURSE THE COST OF THESE SYSTEMS. IT'S NOW ALLOWABLE COST.

FOR THE FIRST YEAR, YEAR ONE ALONE IS ABOUT $2.8 MILLION.

AND IF YOU'LL REMEMBER, THE ADVANTAGES OF DOING IT THIS WAY IS WE SAVE APPROXIMATELY 37% DUE TO THE NONPAYMENT OF RECAPTURE ON THOSE FUNDS, WHICH IS A GREAT DEAL.

SO THAT'S WHAT WE WOULD RECOMMEND THIS EVENING IS WE HAVE TWO NOW THAT WE'VE STARTED THE PROCESS OF GOING ACTUALLY OVER TO THE NEW PLATFORM, THE NEW SOFTWARE, BEFORE WE EXPENSE THOSE, WE HAVE TO HAVE A REIMBURSEMENT RESOLUTION TO ALLOW US THE ABILITY LATER ON TO REIMBURSE.

THANK YOU. SO LET ME ASK FOR A MOTION FIRST AND THEN WE CAN ASK ANY QUESTIONS WE MIGHT HAVE.

SO DO I HAVE A MOTION? I MOVE THAT THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES APPROVES THE RESOLUTION, DECLARE AN EXPECTATION TO REIMBURSE EXPENDITURES WITH PROCEEDS OF FUTURE DEBT.

I SECOND. THANK YOU.

I HAVE A MOTION BY JERI CHAMBERS, THE SECOND BY NANCY HUMPHREY AT THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES APPROVES A RESOLUTION DECLARING EXPECTATION TO REIMBURSE EXPENDITURES WITH THE PROCEEDS OF FUTURE DEBT. IS THERE ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION?

[00:10:06]

I WAS JUST GOING TO ASK OR CLARIFY THE LINE ITEM THAT THIS WOULD FALL UNDER IN TERMS OF WOULD THIS BE SOMETHING IN PROPOSITION A? B, THAT'S A GREAT QUESTION.

THIS WOULD BE SOMETHING THAT'S ACTUALLY IN PROPOSITION B, B, I'M SORRY, PROPOSITION C NOW.

SO IT'S ACTUALLY PART OF TECHNOLOGY, INSTRUCTIONAL TECHNOLOGY.

DOES THAT BE, THOUGH? IT'S ACTUALLY O IT'S ACTUALLY NOW THE C? YEAH, ACTUALLY, BECAUSE TAKE A MINUTE NOW AND EXPLAIN THAT, JOHN.

OKAY. SO THAT'S A GREAT QUESTION.

SO, SO OBVIOUSLY UNDER SECRETARY OF STATE, THEY, WANTED US TO GO BACK AND REMEMBER EVERYTHING.

SO PREVIOUSLY UP UNTIL NOW, WE HAD THE VATRE, THE VOTER APPROVED TEXT RATIFICATION ELECTION WAS GOING TO BE PROP A.

AND THEN THE BOND STARTED FROM PROP A ALL THE WAY THROUGH PROP D.

SECRETARY OF STATE CAME BACK AND SAID, NO, IT'S ALL GOT TO BE SEQUENTIAL ORDER.

SO NOW WE HAVE OUR VOTER APPROVED TEXT RATIFICATION ELECTION IS PROP A AND OUR BOND STARTS WITH PROP B AND GOES ON PROP B ALL THE WAY THROUGH PROP E.

SO IF YOU'LL REMEMBER, WE HAVE THE BIG GENERAL PROVISION WHICH WAS ANNOUNCED PROP B, THANK B FOR BOND.

AND THEN IT STARTS WITH PROP C, WHICH IS THE TECHNOLOGY, PERSONAL TECHNOLOGY, INSTRUCTIONAL TECHNOLOGY.

THAT'S WHERE THIS WOULD RESIDE.

DOES THAT MAKE SENSE TO EVERYBODY? SO WHEN THE THE WHEN I THE QUESTION I HAD WHEN JOHNNY AND I SAT DOWN TO TALK ABOUT THE AGENDA WAS, WAS I REALLY COULDN'T CONNECT THE DOTS AS TO WHY WE WERE PASSING A RESOLUTION TODAY TO PAY FOR MONEY OUT OF A BOND THAT'S NOT YET APPROVED.

AND THE REASON WE ARE DOING THE RESOLUTION IS SO THAT IF THE BOND IS APPROVED, WE HAVE THE ABILITY THEN TO CLAW BACK AND PAY FOR THESE EXPENDITURES OUT OF THOSE BOND DOLLARS.

SO IT'S A TIMING MECHANISM, BUT WE HAVE TO PASS THIS RESOLUTION IN ORDER TO LATER CLAW BACK IF THE BOND IS APPROVED.

SO THAT'S THE TIMING OF WHAT WE OTHERWISE WOULD HAVE PAID FOR THIS OR WE HAVE PAID FOR THIS AND WE'RE USING IT AND REGARDLESS, IT'S PAID FOR.

BUT THERE'S A OPPORTUNITY FOR SAVINGS TO THE DISTRICT WHICH IS THE PURPOSE OF THE RESOLUTION, CORRECT? CORRECT. OK, ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? ALL RIGHT. WE WE HAVE A MOTION BY JERRY CHAMBERS, THE SECOND BY NANCY HUMPHREY AT THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES APPROVES THE RESOLUTION DECLARING EXPECTATION TO REIMBURSE EXPENDITURES WITH PROCEEDS OF FUTURE DEBT.

WE'VE HAD OUR DISCUSSION.

WE WILL PROCEED TO VOTE.

ALL IN FAVOR. PLEASE RAISE YOUR HAND.

THAT MOTION PASSES UNANIMOUSLY 6 TO 0.

[8.3. Consideration and/or Action to Approve an Agreement for the Purchase of Attendance Credit (Option 3 Agreement) and to Delegate Contractual Authority to the Superintendent Presenter: Johnny Hill, Deputy Superintendent for Business and Employee Services]

DISCUSSION AND ACTION ITEM 8.3 CONSIDERATION AND OR ACTION TO APPROVE AN AGREEMENT FOR THE PURCHASE OF ATTENDANCE CREDIT OPTION THREE AGREEMENT AND TO DELEGATE CONTRACTUAL AUTHORITY TO THE SUPERINTENDENT.

THE JOHNNY HILL SHOW CONTINUES.

ALL RIGHT, LAST ONE FOR ME.

SO SIMPLY PUT, THIS IS HOW WE EQUALIZE OUR WEALTH, WHICH WE'RE REQUIRED BY LAW TO DO.

OPTION THREE IS THE MOST AFFORDABLE WAY FOR US TO DO THAT.

IT'S SIMPLY PUT, WE WRITE A CHECK BACK TO THE STATE IN ORDER TO EQUALIZE OUR WEALTH.

AND SO THIS YEAR, WE'RE ANTICIPATING HAVING TO PAY BACK THE STATE $247.9 MILLION.

IT'S $247.9 MILLION.

AND SO THE WAY WE DO THAT IS WE HAVE TO ACTUALLY ENTER INTO A CONTRACT WITH THE STATE IN ORDER TO DO THAT AND THAT WE'RE REQUIRED BY JANUARY 1ST TO DO THAT.

SO THIS IS THE PROCESS THAT WE DO EVERY YEAR IN ORDER TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN.

YOU SEE THERE WAS A WRITTEN CONTRACT, BUT A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO THEY'VE GONE WHERE IT'S ALL ELECTRONIC THROUGH THE FOUNDATION SCHOOL PROGRAM SYSTEM, THROUGH TO TEXAS EDUCATION AGENCY.

IT'S A LOT EASIER TO DO.

THE BOARD JUST DELEGATES THE AUTHORITY TO THE SUPERINTENDENT.

SHE GOES IN AND ACTUALLY FILLS OUT A FORM ONLINE AND WE'RE GOOD TO GO FOR ANOTHER YEAR.

SO THAT'S WHAT WE'RE ASKING THE BOARD TO DO THIS EVENING.

ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THAT? SO WE'LL HAVE A MOTION AND THEN CONVERSATION.

THIS LOOKS FUN. I'M GOING TO DO IT.

I MOVE FOR THE 2022- 2023 SCHOOL YEAR.

THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES DELEGATES CONTRACTUAL AUTHORITY TO OBLIGATE THE SCHOOL DISTRICT UNDER TEXAS EDUCATION CODE TEC 11.1511C4 TO THE SUPERINTENDENT SOLELY FOR THE PURPOSE OF OBLIGATING THE DISTRICT UNDER TEC 48.257 AND TEC CHAPTER 49 SUB CHAPTERS A AND D AND THE RULE ADOPTED BY THE COMMISSIONER OF EDUCATION IS AUTHORIZED UNDER TEC 49.006.

THIS INCLUDES APPROVAL OF THE AGREEMENT FOR THE PURCHASE OF ATTENDANCE CREDIT OR THE AGREEMENT FOR THE PURCHASE OF ATTENDANCE CREDIT NETTING.

CHAPTER 48 FUNDING.

I'M SORRY, THAT WAS IT. I DIDN'T KNOW WE [INAUDIBLE] OVER.

I'LL SECOND.

OK, I'M NOT GOING TO READ THE MOTION RIGHT NOW BECAUSE I WOULD LIKE TO OPEN IT UP FOR CONVERSATION FIRST, THEN I'LL READ THE MOTION AGAIN BUT RIGHT PRIOR TO VOTE, SO COMMENTS.

[00:15:06]

I HAVE MY MIC ON, AMAZING.

I THINK THAT THIS HAS TO DO WITH A WORD EVERYBODY KNOWS AS RECAPTURE, BUT THE LANGUAGE HAS BEEN CHANGED IN THE LAST LEGISLATIVE SESSION TO BE CALLED REVENUE IN EXCESS OF ENTITLEMENT.

AND SO I THINK IN 1993, WE STARTED THE RECAPTURE PROGRAM, WHICH IS NOW A DIFFERENT NAME TO TO PROVIDE EQUITY FOR THE DISTRICTS IN THE STATE.

AND I THINK NONE OF US ON THIS BOARD TABLE BELIEVE THAT THERE SHOULDN'T BE EQUITY IN FUNDING.

ACTUALLY, WHAT WE BELIEVE IS THERE SHOULD BE ADEQUACY IN FUNDING.

AND IT'S GOTTEN TO A POINT WHEN WHEN YOU SAY $247.9 MILLION, WHICH IS A QUARTER OF $1,000,000,000 AND IS PROBABLY MORE THAN MOST CITY BUDGETS IN TEXAS, EXCEPT FOR THE VERY LARGE CITIES.

WE OUR POSITION IS NOT EQUITABLE ANYMORE.

SO EQUITY HAS FLIPPED ON US AND WE HAVE LEGISLATIVE PRIORITIES FOR THIS UPCOMING 88TH SESSION.

AND I THINK BEYOND SOME OF THE OBVIOUS ONES, WHERE WE'RE GOING TO BE ASKING FOR SAFETY AND SECURITY FUNDING IN THE STATE, WE HAVE NUMEROUS AMOUNTS IN OUR PRIORITIES ABOUT RECAPTURE.

AND SO WE'RE ASKING THAT AT A MINIMUM, THEY PUT A CAP ON RECAPTURE SO THAT DISTRICTS ARE NOT FINDING THEMSELVES IN A BUDGET DEFICIT POSITION AS WE'RE FINDING OURSELVES WITH RECAPTURE.

AND THEN WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THE MONEY THAT GOES INTO THIS EXCESS REVENUE OR REVENUE IN EXCESS OF ENTITLEMENT ACTUALLY GOES INTO THE BASIC ALLOTMENT.

BECAUSE WHAT WE HAVE FOUND IN A PREVIOUS BIENNIUM, MOST RECENTLY, THAT 23% OF THE DOLLARS THAT ARE RECAPTURED FROM DISTRICTS LIKE OURS, 23% OF THOSE ARE NOT PUT INTO PUBLIC EDUCATION.

THERE'S THEY'RE PUT INTO A SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATIONS BILL AND SPENT SOMEWHERE ELSE.

AND WE HAVE NO TRANSPARENCY OF WHERE OUR DOLLARS ARE GOING.

AND WHEN WE WE PAY THESE OUT BASED ON THE ATTENDANCE CREDITS, WHICH WE ARE CONSIDERING APPROVING RIGHT NOW, WHICH IS THE WAY THAT PLANO ISD HAS ALWAYS REMITTED ITS RECAPTURE.

BUT WHAT ONE OF THE OTHER THINGS WE'RE ASKING FOR IS TRANSPARENCY, SO THAT OUR TAXPAYERS KNOW THIS AND HOW MUCH OF THEIR TAX BILL IS BEING RECAPTURED AND SENT BACK TO THE STATE.

AND ONE OF THE LAST THINGS THAT WE'VE ASKED FOR IS THAT OUR FUNDS COLLECTED IN RECAPTURE MUST BE USED TO FUND TRADITIONAL PUBLIC EDUCATION.

IT CAN'T GO SOMEWHERE ELSE.

IT NEEDS TO STAY IN PUBLIC ED SO THAT'S THAT'S MY HARP FROM THE HILL, BUT I KNOW WE'RE JUST CREATING A METHOD OF HOW WE REMIT THE FUNDS, BUT I JUST WANT OUR AUDIENCE AND OUR PUBLIC TO UNDERSTAND THE DILEMMA THAT PLANO ISD IS WITH REGARD TO A QUARTER OF $1,000,000,000 NEXT YEAR, PAYMENT OF RECAPTURE.

OTHER COMMENTS. I MEAN, I'D LIKE TO SEE WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF WE DIDN'T SEND THAT MONEY.

THEY TAKE OUR PROPERTY.

WELL, SO THAT ACTUALLY THAT'S PART OF MY COMMENTS IS I GET THIS I GET THE SAME TWO QUESTIONS EVERY YEAR.

ONE IS, WHY DON'T YOU JUST NOT APPROVE THIS? WELL, THE RESULT, HOUSTON TRIED THIS ALREADY, AND THE RESULT OF THAT IS THAT THE STATE COMES IN AND CHERRY PICKS WHAT PROPERTIES THEY WANT TO ASSESS TO TAKE THE MONEY FROM YOU.

SO WE DON'T HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY, WE DON'T HAVE THE OPTION OF SAYING, NO, WE'RE JUST NOT GOING TO PAY YOU.

THE STATE WILL COME IN AND THEY'LL GET THEIR POUND OF FLESH REGARDLESS.

HOW MANY YEARS HAS PLANO ISD BEEN PLAYING AND PAYING INTO RECAPTURE, SINCE DAY ONE? 1994. YEAH.

NOW, MY FIRST YEAR ON THE BOARD IN 2011 OR 12 I GUESS WAS THE FIRST TIME I HAD TO VOTE ON THIS.

OUR RECAPTURE PAYMENT WAS $24 MILLION, SO WE ARE TEN TIMES THAT AMOUNT NOW IN AN 11 YEAR TIME SPAN.

THE SECOND QUESTION I ALWAYS GET THIS TIME OF YEAR IS WHY ARE YOU APPROVING? WHY ARE YOU PAYING SO MUCH IN RECAPTURE WHEN YOU'RE RUNNING A BUDGET DEFICIT? THE REASON WE ARE RUNNING A BUDGET DEFICIT IS BECAUSE OF THE AMOUNT OF MONEY WE HAVE TO PAY AND RECAPTURE.

AND YOU CAN GO BACK AND WATCH JOHNNY'S PRESENTATIONS BECAUSE HE'S MORE ELOQUENTLY THAN I CAN EXPLAIN THIS.

BUT THE BOTTOM LINE IS OUR SPENDABLE DOLLARS ARE A STRAIGHT LINE ACROSS THE BOARD.

INFLATION, OF COURSE, IS GOING UP, RIGHT? SO OUR COST OF DOING BUSINESS IS GOING UP, BUT OUR SPENDABLE DOLLARS IS THE EXACT SAME IN ANY ADDITIONAL DOLLARS THAT THE TAX BASE RAISE GOES TO

[00:20:01]

RECAPTURE. AND SO.

WE CAN'T FIX THIS.

I GOT AN EMAIL TODAY ASKING ME TO FIX THIS.

THIS BOARD CANNOT FIX THIS PROBLEM.

THIS IS A STATE LEVEL ISSUE.

OUR STATE REPRESENTATIVES HAVE TO DO THEIR JOB AND REPRESENT THIS DISTRICT AND END THIS OR PUT A CAP ON IT OR GIVE US SOME SORT OF RELIEF, BECAUSE WHAT'S COMING DOWN THERE IS A MASSIVE CLIFF COMING UP FOR THIS SCHOOL DISTRICT.

WE HAVE DONE OUR BEST TO AVOID IT.

AND BUT IT IS ON THE HORIZON.

WELL, DAVID, ONE MORE THING IS AND JOHNNY, REMIND ME, WE'RE OVER $2 BILLION COLLECTIVELY AND ONLY IN THE LAST SIX YEARS WAS IT A BILLION.

SO THAT RAMP UP IS CRAZY.

IT IS. IT'S ACCELERATING BIG TIME.

SO WE'RE ALMOST RIGHT AT $2.5 BILLION SINCE WE STARTED.

SO TO ADD A FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION TO YOUR TWO.

ONE OF THE THINGS I'VE BEEN ASKED A LOT IS WHY DON'T YOU JUST LOWER YOUR M&O TAX RATE AND PAY LESS RECAPTURE? I MEAN, IT'S IT'S SIMPLE, RIGHT? AND IT'S IT'S NOT SIMPLE.

SO, MR. HILL, I WOULD LIKE YOU TO EXPLAIN THAT HOW IT'S NOT SO SIMPLE.

WELL, TO MAKE IT SIMPLE, OF COURSE, THE STATE ACTUALLY HAS BEEN LOWERING IT THROUGH HOUSE BILL THREE.

TO PUT IT SIMPLY, IF THE STATE COMES THROUGH THROUGH TAX COMPRESSION LAWS, THEY CAN LOWER IT WITHOUT IT PENALIZING US.

IF THE SCHOOL DISTRICT CHOOSES TO LOWER THEIR M&O TAX RATE, THEN THEY'RE PENALIZED AND YOU'D HAVE TO GO BACK AND LOOK AT HOW THE M&O TAX RATE IS MADE UP.

IT'S ACTUALLY MADE UP OF THREE DIFFERENT LEVELS.

AND SO BECAUSE WE HAVE ENRICHMENT PENNIES FOR US TO ACTUALLY CUT $0.01 OUT OF OUR IF THE DISTRICT CHOOSES ON THEIR OWN TO CUT THE M&O TAX RATE ABOUT EVERY ONE PENNY THEY CUT, WE GET PENALIZED ABOUT $3 MILLION.

AND SO OBVIOUSLY, THAT WOULD JUST MAKE THE DEFICIT EVEN LARGER.

SO BOTTOM LINE IS, IF THE STATE CUTS THE TAX RATE THROUGH TAX COMPRESSION, NO PENALTY.

IF THE SCHOOL DISTRICT CUTS THE M&O TAX RATE ON THEIR OWN ACCORD, THERE'S A PENALTY.

RIGHT. SO WE WOULD IF WE CUT OUR OWN TAX RATE, WE WOULD BE KEEPING FEWER DOLLARS IN OUR SCHOOLS.

IT'S ABOUT $3 MILLION PER PENNY.

YEAH. SO I KNOW THIS BOARD IN PREVIOUS BOARDS HAS OR HAVE SPENT A LOT OF TIME AND ENERGY TRYING TO EDUCATE THE PUBLIC AND WORK WITH OUR STATE LEGISLATORS TO FIX THIS PROBLEM AND NOT THROWING SHADE AT ALL OF THE HOURS AND HOURS AND HOURS OF WORK OF THAT.

BUT WE HAVEN'T SEEN MUCH MOVEMENT ON THIS.

AND I'M FAILING TO SEE WHAT WE REALLY HAVE TO LOSE IN TERMS OF THE FISCAL CLIFF THAT WE'RE COMING UP TO.

DO WE WANT TO GO OFF THE CLIFF OR DO WE WANT THEM TO PUSH US? AND I THINK UNTIL SOMETHING HAPPENS IN OUR COMMUNITY, WHETHER IT'S TEA COMING IN AND DECIDING WHAT PROPERTY THEY'RE GOING TO ANNEX AND WAKING THE COMMUNITY UP TO HOW BROKEN AND CORRUPT THE SYSTEM IS, I DON'T THINK ANYBODY'S LISTENING.

I DON'T THINK THEY'RE PUTTING ENOUGH PRESSURE ON THEIR STATE LEGISLATORS AND TAKING IT SERIOUS ENOUGH.

AND I THINK A DIFFERENT TACTIC NEEDS TO BE TAKEN BECAUSE WHAT WE'VE DONE SINCE 1994 HAS NOT RESULTED IN RELIEF FOR THIS DISTRICT.

WELL, YOU KNOW, YOU AND I HAPPEN TO RUN INTO A STATE LEGISLATOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO, AND WE STARTED TO HAVE A CONVERSATION IN THE EVENT WE WERE BEGAN.

SO WE ENDED OUR CONVERSATION.

BUT WHEN I MENTIONED THE AMOUNT, I THINK WE HAD JUST WRITTEN THE RECAPTURE CHECK THAT WEEK AND I SAID, YOU WON'T BELIEVE THE AMOUNT THAT WE'RE NOW PAYING IN RECAPTURE. AND THE LEGISLATOR TOLD ME WE FIXED THAT AND I SAID, WE NEED TO HAVE A CONVERSATION BECAUSE YOU DID NOT FIX IT. IT'S BACK.

AND A LOT OF IT HAS TO DO WITH THE HIGH GROWTH AND PROPERTY VALUES.

A LOT OF IT HAS TO DO WITH THE ARBITRARY 2.5% RATE OF GROWTH THAT THEY LET PROPERTIES GROW.

AND I'M GETTING INTO THE WEEDS, BUT THE POINT IS WE HAVE GOT TO LET EVERYBODY KNOW AND WE SHOUT THIS FROM THE ROOFTOPS EVERY MEETING.

BUT OUR TAXPAYERS NEED TO GET A LITTLE BIT VOCAL TO THEIR LEGISLATORS SO THEY WILL REPRESENT THE CONSTITUENCY WHOM WE ARE.

I THINK WE JUST NEED TO TELL AUSTIN, COME AND TAKE IT.

TO DAVID'S POINT, TO PRESIDENT'S STOLLE'S POINT A WHILE AGO, THEY WILL TAKE IT AND THEY'LL ACTUALLY DE-ANNEX.

BUT THE PROBLEM WITH THAT IS WHEN THEY DE-ANNEX, IT'S NOT THAT WE'RE GOING TO DE-ANNEX IT FOR THIS ONE YEAR.

IT'S PERMANENT. SO ONCE THEY TAKE IT AWAY, THEY DON'T GIVE IT BACK.

AND THE PROBLEM WITH THAT IS IT SHRINKS YOUR TAX BASE SO YOU DON'T HAVE THE ABILITY TO PAY YOUR INS, YOU DON'T HAVE AS MUCH CAPACITY TO PAY YOUR INS.

SO THEY'VE GOT YOU I MEAN, REALLY, THEY'VE GOT YOU ON THAT REGARD ANYWAY.

I THINK THAT WOULD MAKE A LOT OF PEOPLE WANT TO TALK TO THEIR STATE LEGISLATORS TO FIX THAT.

I AGREE. AND I WON'T PLAY CHICKEN WITH THEM IN THE ROAD BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO VIOLATE STATUTE, WHICH THIS IS ALL BOUND BY.

[00:25:05]

I DON'T ADVOCATE FOR BREAKING THE LAW, BUT I DO ADVOCATE FOR GETTING OUR COMMUNITY VERY INFORMED AND LET THEM HELP US OUT IN GETTING THE MESSAGE OUT TO OUR LEGISLATORS, BECAUSE IT'S NOVEMBER, IT'S ABOUT TO BE NOVEMBER AND WE'VE GOT ELECTIONS COMING UP.

YEAH, I WOULD.

CODY, I THINK TO YOUR POINT, SOMETHING BOLD HAS TO HAPPEN, BUT I DON'T NECESSARILY KNOW THAT I WANT TO ABDICATE THAT RIGHT TO MAKE THE BOLD CHOICE TO THE STATE AND LET THEM DO THAT.

BECAUSE THAT TO ME IS ALMOST TO THE POINT OF CUTTING OFF YOUR NOSE TO SPITE YOUR FACE IF WE LOSE ENOUGH INS DOLLARS ON TOP OF M&O DOLLARS.

HOWEVER THAT I WILL TELL YOU WHAT, WHAT IS GOING TO END UP HAPPENING AND WHAT WILL GET THE ATTENTION OF THIS COMMUNITY IS THERE WILL BE A SCHOOL THAT GETS CLOSED BECAUSE WE CAN'T AFFORD TO STAFF IT.

AND WHEN WE HAVE TO SHUT DOWN A NEIGHBORHOOD SCHOOL.

THAT NEIGHBORHOOD WILL NOTICE, AND THAT IS ULTIMATELY WHERE WE ARE HEADED IF NOTHING CHANGES.

AND, YOU KNOW, AGAIN, I DON'T NECESSARILY THINK THAT IT'S I DON'T WANT TO GIVE THE STATE THE RIGHT TO CHERRY PICK OUR OUR BEST PROPERTY AND TAKE IT OFF OUR TAX ROLLS.

BUT SOMETHING'S GOT TO GIVE FOR SURE.

SO IN OTHER COMMENTS, JUST THE QUESTION THAT WHAT IS IT THAT THE RECOMMENDATION, RECOMMENDATION FOR SOLUTION, I MEAN, WE'VE ASKED FOR OUR LEGISLATORS TO GO AND FIX IT.

IS A COMPRESSION OF A RECAPTURE RATE A OPTION? JUST SOMETHING THAT'S SIMPLE THAT PEOPLE CAN ARTICULATE BECAUSE IT IS SO COMPLICATED SCENARIO.

ACTUALLY, TWO THINGS ON THAT BECAUSE I DID CODY MENTIONED SOMETHING AS WELL.

WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT? ONE THING THAT DOES MAKE THIS YEAR A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT IS THAT HOUSTON AND DALLAS HAVE NOT BEEN PAYORS.

THEY'VE BEEN PAYEES, THEY ARE NOW PAYORS.

AND SO THE REASON WHY THE ANSWER TO YOUR QUESTION IS WHY NOTHING HAS CHANGED IS BECAUSE THERE'S MORE OF THEM THAN THERE ARE OF US, QUITE FRANKLY.

WE DON'T HAVE THE VOTES TO MAKE TO MAKE CHANGE.

THAT IS STARTING TO CHANGE WHEN YOU HAVE BIG CITIES LIKE HOUSTON AND DALLAS AND THEIR REPRESENTATIVE OFFICIALS WHO CAN BACK YOU UP.

YOU'RE GATHERING THERE'S SOME GATHERING STEAM TO MAKE CHANGE.

I HATE TO SAY, YOU KNOW, THAT I WOULD, I'M LEAVING THIS TO HOPE BECAUSE I'M OUT OF HOPE AFTER 11 YEARS OF DOING THIS, WITH REGARD TO RECAPTURE.

BUT THE MORE PAYORS THERE ARE, THE MORE THAT WILL CREATE THE NEED FOR CHANGE.

WASN'T THAT WHAT PRECIPITATED THE CHANGE? THREE YEARS AGO OR THREE SESSIONS AGO? [INAUDIBLE] AND IT DIDN'T LAST.

SO IT DID PRECIPITATE CHANGE, BUT IT'S NOT A CHANGE THAT'S GOING TO GIVE US ANY LONGEVITY.

AND I'LL JUST POINT OUT REAL QUICKLY, I MEAN, NANCY UNDERSTANDS RECAPTURE AS WELL AS ANYBODY, ANY CFO.

AND SO SHE'S ACTUALLY, I THINK, IS GOING TO BE PRESENTING SOME LEGISLATIVE RECOMMENDATIONS.

I KNOW THE COMMITTEE WILL BE HERE MAYBE NEXT MONTH.

SHE'S GOT SOME GOOD, REALLY GOOD IDEAS THAT, YOU KNOW, WE CAN TAKE TO THE CAPITOL.

THIS IS A SESSION WHERE THERE IS SURPLUS ON THE TABLE.

SO THIS IS AN, I LOOK AT IT AS AN OPPORTUNITY, TO YOUR POINT, CODY, THAT WE HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO ACTUALLY HELP MAKE CHANGE LEGISLATIVELY, WHICH DAVID'S EXACTLY RIGHT.

THAT'S WHERE IT'S GOING TO HAVE TO GO WITH RECAPTURE.

YOU'VE GOT PEOPLE LIKE NANCY THAT CAN CARRY THE TORCH THAT UNDERSTAND IT VERY WELL.

AND SHE'S GOT SOME GREAT THE COMMITTEE HAS SOME GREAT RECOMMENDATIONS TO BRING FORTH, I THINK, IN OCTOBER.

WELL, I THINK I JUST ENUMERATED A FEW OF THEM.

AND ONE OTHER ONE WE'RE ASKING IS TO REINSTATE THE DISCOUNT FOR EARLY PAYMENT OF RECAPTURE.

AND IN THE PAST, IT'S BEEN I DON'T WANT I DON'T EVEN WANT TO SAY THE PERCENTAGE BECAUSE I WANT A BIGGER NUMBER THAN THAT.

THAT'S WHY I DON'T WANT TO SAY IT.

BUT THERE IS A $22 BILLION SURPLUS IN THE STATES REVENUES THIS YEAR.

GLEN HAGER HAS CERTIFIED THAT, AND I KNOW THAT PERHAPS AS A ONE YEAR SURPLUS, BUT A LOT CAN BE DONE WITH THAT.

AND I THINK THERE ARE A LOT, A LOT OF HANDS OUT FOR THAT SURPLUS AS WELL.

SO WE NEED TO BE VERY VOCAL ABOUT OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS AND MAKE SURE THAT THE STATE FULLY FUNDS THE BASIC ALLOTMENT.

MAYBE THAT'S THE MESSAGE THAT WE NEED TO CARRY IS TO PAY FOR THE COST OF EDUCATION THAT IT THAT IT COSTS BECAUSE WE'RE IN THE LOW FORTIES OF OF STATES WHO FUND EDUCATION AND YET OVER 80%, 88% OF THE STUDENTS IN THE STATE OF TEXAS GRADUATE HIGH SCHOOL.

SO THAT'S A PRETTY GOOD ROI.

IF THEY WOULD RAISE THE BASIC ALLOTMENT, THEY WOULD PROBABLY GET MUCH BETTER OUTCOMES.

[00:30:03]

EVERY TIME RECAPTURE COMES UP, I ALWAYS THINK ABOUT ALBERT EINSTEIN'S DEFINITION OF INSANITY, WHICH IS DOING THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND EXPECTING A DIFFERENT RESULT.

AND I LIKE CODY, YOU KNOW AM NEWER AND THERE'S ABSOLUTELY NO DISRESPECT TO ANYBODY WHO'S COME BEFORE US.

WE STAND ON THE SHOULDERS OF GIANTS, THERE'S NO QUESTION, RIGHT.

BUT I FEEL LIKE WE'RE STUCK IN AN INSANITY CYCLE.

WE'RE DOING THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER AND WE HAVE FOR DECADES AND WE'RE NOT GETTING RESULTS.

AND SO WHILE I I UNDERSTAND THE THERE'S AN EXTREME RISK WITH THE DE-ANNEXING PROPERTY, AND I DON'T KNOW THAT I THINK THAT THAT'S THE RIGHT WAY TO GO.

BUT WE GOT TO GO BIG OR GO HOME LIKE IN THE NEXT 18 MONTHS OR WE'RE IN TROUBLE.

YEAH. I MEAN, TO JOHNNY'S POINT, THERE'S A HUGE SURPLUS THIS YEAR.

THERE ARE MORE PAYORS IF THERE IS GOING TO BE LEGISLATIVE CHANGE.

THIS IS IT'S RIPE IN THIS SECTION TO MAKE LEGISLATIVE CHANGE HAPPEN.

IF IT DOESN'T HAPPEN, GO BIG OR GO HOME MAYBE THE ONLY SOLUTION.

OK. WELL, I HELD BACK REREADING THE MOTION, SO I'LL DO THAT NOW.

I HAVE A MOTION BY JERI CHAMBERS, A SECOND BY LAUREN TYRA THAT FOR THE 2022-2023 SCHOOL YEAR, THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES DELEGATES CONTRACTUAL AUTHORITY TO OBLIGATE THE SCHOOL DISTRICT UNDER TEXAS EDUCATION CODE 11 1511C4 TO THE SUPERINTENDENT SOLELY FOR THE PURPOSE OF OBLIGATING THE DISTRICT UNDER TEC 48.257 AND TEC CHAPTER 49, CHAPTERS A AND D AND THE RULES ADOPTED BY THE COMMISSIONER OF EDUCATION AS AUTHORIZED UNDER TEC 49.06. THIS INCLUDES APPROVAL OF THE AGREEMENT FOR THE PURCHASE OF ATTENDANCE CREDITS, OR THE AGREEMENT FOR THE PURCHASE OF ATTENDANCE CREDIT NETTING CHAPTER 48 FUNDING.

IS THERE ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? HEARING NONE. WE WILL PROCEED TO VOTE.

ALL IN FAVOR. PLEASE RAISE YOUR HAND.

ALL OPPOSED.

THAT MOTION PASSES 5 TO 1.

THANK YOU. WE'LL MOVE TO DISCUSSION AND ACTION ITEM 8.4 APPROVAL OF THE 2022 2023 PLAN OF WORK, GOALS AND STRATEGIES.

[8.4. Approval of 2022 - 2023 Plan of Work Goals and Strategies Presenter: Lisa Wilson, Deputy Superintendent for Teaching, Learning and Life Readiness]

AND LISA, I BELIEVE YOU'RE UP.

THANK YOU PRESIDENT STOLLE, BOARD OF TRUSTEES.

I AM PLEASED TONIGHT TO PRESENT TO YOU THE 2022-23 PLAN OF WORK FOR STRATEGIC PILLARS ONE THROUGH FIVE.

AS A REMINDER, THE DISTRICT CONDUCTS ITS PLAN OF WORK, WHICH INCLUDES BOTH STRATEGIES TO SUPPORT THE STRATEGIC PILLARS AND ALSO TO SUPPORT THE DISTRICT IMPROVEMENT PLAN PROCESS, WHICH AS A RESULT ALSO INCLUDES OUR CAMPUS IMPROVEMENT PLANNING PROCESS.

IN THE PAST, YOU'VE RECEIVED THESE AS ONE SET OF STRATEGIES, BUT WE WANTED TO START GETTING THESE TO YOU AS SOON AS WE HAD THEM AVAILABLE.

AND WE HAVE COMPLETED OUR STRATEGIC PILLAR STRATEGIES FOR ONE THROUGH FIVE.

SO TONIGHT YOU'LL SEE THOSE.

AND LATER IN SEPTEMBER, WHEN WE COMPLETE OUR DISTRICT IMPROVEMENT PLANNING PROCESS, YOU WILL SEE ADDITIONAL STRATEGIES FOR GOALS SIX THROUGH 11.

SO JUST JUST TO GIVE YOU WHY WE ARE DOING THOSE IN TWO SETTINGS AND IF YOU'LL RECALL, PART OF THAT IS ALSO HOUSE BILL THREE GOALS WHICH ARE REQUIRED FROM THE STATE.

YOU WILL ALSO SEE THOSE SET IN PART TWO OF THE PLAN OF WORK.

SO TO WORK THROUGH PART ONE, WE HAVE THE STRATEGIC PILLAR, OF COURSE OF TEACHING AND LEARNING WHERE WE'RE LOOKING AT REALLY THE LEARNING EXPERIENCES IN OUR CLASSROOM.

YOU HAVE AT YOUR TABLE OR AT YOUR SEAT, YOU HAVE A FULL LIST OF THE STRATEGIES IN FRONT OF YOU, AND WE'VE INDICATED WHICH OF THOSE STRATEGIES ARE NEW AND THOSE STRATEGIES THAT ARE CONTINUING OVER TIME THAT WE HAVE STARTED MAYBE LAST YEAR AND ARE CONTINUING.

YOU'LL SEE THAT A LOT OF THE STRATEGIES IN THE TEACHING AND LEARNING PILLAR ARE NEW.

WE'RE LOOKING FORWARD TO A LOT OF WORK ON INSTRUCTIONAL MODELS IN OUR CLASSROOMS AND WORKING TOWARD A VISION OF INSTRUCTION ON EACH CAMPUS, REALLY DIGGING INTO MATHEMATICAL AND LITERACY PRACTICES AND OF COURSE CONTINUING THE READING ACADEMY.

SO THAT'S SOME OF THE WORK THAT WE'RE EXCITED TO DO.

I WILL TELL YOU, YOU WILL SEE MORE TEACHING AND LEARNING STRATEGIES CONNECTED TO THE DISTRICT IMPROVEMENT PLAN.

SO NOT TO SEEM LIKE A LIGHT STRATEGY, BUT YOU WILL SEE MORE LATER IN PILLAR ONE.

ALSO IN PILLAR ONE, YOU WILL SEE ITEMS. WE'VE UPDATED A LITTLE BIT OF OUR MTSS PROCESS AS THAT HAS BEEN EVOLVING OVER TIME AND YOU'LL SEE THAT WE ARE WORKING WITH PRINCIPALS SUPPORTING THE IMPLEMENTATION ON THEIR CAMPUSES.

ONE THING WE'RE EXCITED TO LOOK AT THIS YEAR IS THE DEVELOPMENT OF A COLLEGIATE ACADEMY FOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS TO EARN BOTH COLLEGE CREDIT AND HIGH SCHOOL CREDIT AT THE SAME TIME, IN A MORE EXTENSIVE FASHION THAN WE HAVE NOW.

[00:35:04]

WE ALSO ARE LOOKING AT A CTE LONG RANGE VISIONING PLAN IN HOPES THAT PENDING VOTER APPROVAL OF THE BOND THAT THERE COULD ALSO BE A CTE CENTER FOR SOME OF OUR STUDENTS TO DO SOME CAPSTONE WORK.

SO THOSE ARE THE TYPES OF THINGS WE'RE TAKING CARE OF IN PILLAR ONE.

IN PILLAR TWO, WE'RE LOOKING AT STUDENTS TO BECOME LIFE READY IS KIND OF THE FUN PART OF WORKING WITH STUDENTS, GETTING THEM READY TO GO INTO THEIR NEXT PHASE OF LIFE.

AND PART OF THIS WORK IS LOOKING AT OUR PORTRAIT OF A GRADUATE WORK.

WE'RE EXCITED LATER THIS MONTH TO SHARE WITH YOU SOME NEW STRATEGIES THAT WE'RE LOOKING TOWARD WITH THIS PARTICULAR WORK.

BUT REALLY, WE'RE DIGGING INTO LEARNER PROFILES.

AND WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE TO BE THAT THIRD GRADER OR THAT SIXTH GRADER ON THE PATH TO GRADUATION? WHAT KINDS OF SKILLS AND COMPETENCIES DO WE WANT TO MAKE SURE STUDENTS HAVE SO THAT THEY ARE LIFE READY AS THEY GRADUATE? AND OF COURSE, WE HAVE A LOT OF GREAT WORK THAT WE'RE DOING WITH HOLDSWORTH IN OUR LEARNER OR EXCUSE ME, IN OUR LEADERSHIP DEFINITION.

AND WE'LL INCLUDE THAT WORK, THAT GREAT WORK THAT WE'RE DOING WITH THESE PARTICULAR PILLARS.

WE ALSO WANT TO LOOK AT ENGAGEMENT.

WE KNOW HOW INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT STUDENT ENGAGEMENT IS, BOTH IN EXTRACURRICULAR AND ALSO IN ACADEMICS.

AND SO SOME OF THE THINGS THAT WE WILL BE WORKING ON IN PILLAR TWO WILL BE TO EXPAND SOME OFFERINGS AND FINE ARTS.

IF YOU'LL RECALL, ABOUT A MONTH AGO WE SHARED WITH YOU THAT WE DID A SIXTH GRADE NEW PROGRAM, KIND OF A PRE ATHLETICS VENTURE.

WE'LL BE TAKING A LOOK AT THAT SAME TYPE OF THING IN FINE ARTS THIS YEAR.

WE ALSO WILL BE LOOKING TO STREAMLINE THAT COURSE SELECTION PROCESS, MAKING SURE WE MAKE ALL ELECTIVES AVAILABLE FOR OUR STUDENTS SO THEY WILL HAVE CHOICE IN WHAT THEY'RE DOING IN THEIR ELECTIVES.

ANOTHER EXCITING OPPORTUNITY FOR US IS TAKING A REALLY CLOSE LOOK AT MIDDLE SCHOOL PROGRAMING AND PUTTING A GROUP TOGETHER TO REALLY OUTLINE A VISION FOR THOSE MIDDLE SCHOOLS. ARE THERE THINGS WE NEED TO ADD TO INCREASE OPPORTUNITIES FOR STUDENTS IN EXTRACURRICULARS AND ELECTIVES, PARTICULARLY IN THE AREAS OF MAYBE SOME IB PROGRAMING OR SOME CTE PROGRAMING? SO WE'RE REALLY EXCITED TO TAKE A LOOK AND DIG IN AND SEE WHAT WE CAN LEARN THERE.

ALSO, A PROJECT TO REBRAND SOME VERTICAL FEEDERS FOR THE HIGH SCHOOLS TO INCREASE A LITTLE BIT OF SCHOOL SPIRIT AND ENGAGEMENT AND REALLY LOOKING AT OUR ELEMENTARY FINE ARTS PROGRAMING.

SO LOTS OF GREAT THINGS TO KEEP STUDENTS INVOLVED AND ENGAGED AND EXCITED ABOUT COMING TO SCHOOL EACH DAY.

PILLAR THREE, WE'RE LOOKING AT OUR WORKFORCE AND MAKING SURE WE GET THE HIGHEST QUALITY STAFF IN OUR CLASSROOMS AND IN OUR SCHOOLS FOR OUR STUDENTS.

A LOT OF STRATEGIES AND PILLAR THREE, ONE OF THOSE IS TO DIG DEEPER INTO A POTENTIAL TEACHER INCENTIVE ALLOTMENT PROGRAM THAT THE STATE HAS OFFERED.

SO WE'LL BE WORKING ON THE DETAILS OF THAT.

WE ALSO WANT TO MARKET WAYS YOU CAN BECOME A TEACHER IN PLANO ISD AND ALSO CONTINUING TO LOOK AT HOW WE SUPPORT AND RETAIN OUR STAFF ONCE WE GET THEM HIRED HERE IN PLANO.

ALSO IN PILLAR THREE, WE WANT TO LOOK FOR WAYS TO SUPPORT THOSE WHO ARE MAYBE SERVING IN A PARAPROFESSIONAL ROLE, WHO ARE WORKING ON THEIR DEGREES FOR TEACHING CERTIFICATES AND REALLY PROVIDING OPPORTUNITIES FOR THAT.

AND IN ADDITION TO THAT, WE WANT TO LOOK AT STAFF WELLNESS AND MAKING MAKING SURE ONCE WE GET STAFF HERE THAT WE'RE TAKING CARE OF THEM AND THEY ARE HEALTHY AND HAPPY AND PROUD TO BE A PART OF PLANO.

WE ALSO HAVE BEEN I MENTIONED THE HOLDSWORTH WORK A MOMENT AGO.

PART OF THAT WORK IS TO LOOK AT OUR LEADERSHIP PIPELINE AND HOW WE'RE DEVELOPING LEADERS, NOT ONLY TEACHER LEADERS, BUT POTENTIAL FUTURE CAMPUS LEADERS.

AND WE WANT TO MAKE SURE WE'RE PROVIDING THE RIGHT TYPES OF OPPORTUNITIES, HANDS ON LEADERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES FOR THOSE PARTICULAR INDIVIDUALS.

ALSO HIGHLY SUPPORTIVE OF THE NATIONAL BOARD CERTIFICATION PROCESS, ONE OF THE BEST PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES A PERSON CAN ACTUALLY EMBARK UPON. AND I'M EXCITED TO SAY THAT WE HAVE COHORTS WHO ARE STARTED HERE AND WE'LL CONTINUE TO WORK ON THAT PILLAR FOR WE'RE LOOKING AT OUR CULTURE OF COMMUNITY AND WE KNOW HOW IMPORTANT ALL OF US, THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY IS TO THE SUCCESS OF PLANO ISD.

SO WE WANT TO MAKE SURE WE ARE PROVIDING LOTS OF INFORMATION FOR OUR COMMUNITY, ENGAGING THEM IN THE CONVERSATION, THINGS LIKE LET'S TALK THAT LAUNCHED LAST YEAR AND CONTINUING TO USE IT AS A TOOL TO WORK WITH OUR FAMILIES AND COMMUNITY MEMBERS AND ALSO JUST REALLY LOOKING AT OUR PROCESSES OF COMMUNICATION. DO WE HAVE STYLE GUIDES AND WEBSITES AND SOCIAL MEDIA THAT IS REALLY DEVELOPING THE PLANO ISD BRAND? AND WHAT STORIES ARE WE TELLING TO MAKE SURE PEOPLE UNDERSTAND WHAT'S TRULY GOING ON IN THE CLASSROOMS IN PLANO?

[00:40:06]

AND I KNOW DR.

GOBER IS EXCITED ABOUT THE WELCOME CENTERS AND THE SUCCESS THAT WE'VE HAD WITH THOSE, AND SO THEY'LL CONTINUE TO WORK ON THE WEST PLANO WELCOME CENTER.

WE ALSO WANT TO LOOK AT HOW WE'RE WRAPPING OUR ARMS AROUND STUDENTS AND SUPPORTING THE NEEDS OF THE WHOLE CHILD.

AND THIS WORK, AGAIN, A LOT OF THIS WORK IS DONE THROUGH THE STUDENT AND FAMILY COMMUNITY SERVICES GROUP, BUT REALLY LOOKING AT THE POSITIVE BEHAVIOR INTERVENTIONS, RESTORATIVE PRACTICES AND REALLY SERVICES FOR STUDENTS IN NEED.

AND ARE WE MAKING SURE STUDENTS HAVE ACCESS TO ALL OF THE ITEMS THAT THEY NEED TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN OUR SCHOOLS? FINALLY LOOKING AT OUR SECTION 504 AND OUR IMPLEMENTATION OF THE SECTION 504 PLANS.

AND IN ADDITION, LOOKING AT SOME OF THOSE INNOVATIVE PROGRAMS THAT MAKE THAT WILL HELP US MEET THE NEEDS OF ALL LEARNERS.

SO LOOKING AT PROGRAMS AND SUMMER SCHOOL OR CTE PROGRAMS THAT REALLY, AGAIN, IGNITE STUDENTS AND MAKE THEM WANT TO BE INVOLVED IN SCHOOL.

FINALLY, PILLAR FIVE, WE CALL THIS ONE THE JOHNNY HILL PILLAR, LOOKING AT STRATEGIC RESOURCE MANAGEMENT, REALLY LOOKING AT HOW WE SPEND OUR MONEY.

SO WE WANT TO MAKE SURE WE ARE DEVELOPING GOOD PARTNERS IN THE COMMUNITY THAT HELP US WITH THOSE TYPES OF NEEDS.

WHEN PERHAPS TOO MUCH MONEY IS SENT AWAY, WE STILL HAVE THE ABILITY TO GET WHAT WE NEED FOR OUR STUDENTS.

THE OTHER EXCITING PIECE OF PILLAR FIVE THIS YEAR IS TO BEGIN TO LOOK AT A STRATEGIC ROADMAP.

AS YOU ALL KNOW, THE STRATEGIC PLAN IS ENDING AT THE END OF THIS YEAR.

SO WE WILL NEED A ROADMAP FOR THE NEXT FIVE YEARS OR MORE THAT TELLS US WHERE WE WANT TO GO.

SO WE'LL BE TAKING A LOOK AT EVERYTHING INVOLVED FROM THE FINANCES TO THE BUILDINGS TO THE LEARNING SPACES TO THE COURSE OFFERINGS, ALL OF THOSE PIECES THAT MAKE A COMPLETE SCHOOL DISTRICT.

SO WE LOOK WE ARE REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO THAT WORK AND THEN ALSO CONTINUING TO LOOK AT THE EQUITY OF THE TYPES OF OFFERINGS THAT WE HAVE FOR STUDENTS.

SO IS PARTICIPATION EQUITABLE AND ARE ALL OF OUR STUDENTS ABLE TO BE INVOLVED IN THE ACTIVITIES WE OFFER? ALSO, PART OF PILLAR FIVE IS TAKING A LOOK AT THE TOOLS, THE TECHNOLOGY TOOLS THAT WE USE TO PROVIDE THE MOST EFFICIENT AND EFFECTIVE SERVICES FOR OUR STUDENTS AND OUR STAFF AND OUR FAMILIES.

AND SO WE WILL BE TAKING A LOOK AT SOME THINGS FOR SOME COST EFFECTIVENESS.

I MIGHT ALSO ADD THAT WE'RE REALLY EXCITED.

WE WORKED WITH OUR LEADERSHIP COMMITTEE THIS YEAR.

FOR EVERY STRATEGY THERE WILL BE, THE DEPUTIES WILL RECEIVE A PLAN FROM WHATEVER TEAM HAS BEEN PINPOINTED WITH THE STRATEGY, AND THAT PLAN WILL INCLUDE ACTION STEPS WHEN THEY WILL GATHER COMMITTEES TO WORK, WHAT THEIR PROGRESS MONITORING WILL LOOK LIKE, KIND OF THEIR MILESTONES FOR SUCCESS.

SO WE'LL BE ABLE TO PROVIDE YOU UPDATES THROUGHOUT THE YEAR OF WHERE WE ARE BUILDING TOWARD EACH OF THESE STRATEGIES.

AND WITH THAT WE WOULD ASK THAT YOU WOULD APPROVE THOSE.

THANK YOU. ANYBODY HAVE BEFORE WE HAVE A MOTION AND A VOTE BECAUSE THIS IS AN ACTION ITEM.

ANYBODY HAVE ANY JUST GENERAL QUESTIONS FOR LISA? I DID SO IN PILLAR ONE.

ONE OF THESE WAS A LITTLE BIT CONFUSING TO ME.

SO PROVIDE PROFESSIONAL LEARNING TO EQUIP TEACHERS TO DESIGN RIGOROUS LEARNING EXPERIENCES FOR STUDENTS USING THE MATHEMATICAL AND SCIENCE PROCESS STANDARDS AND THE PISD INSTRUCTIONAL MODEL TO IMPROVE STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT AND GROWTH.

IT WAS UNCLEAR TO ME WHETHER THIS IS SPECIFICALLY TARGETED TOWARDS THE SUBJECTS OF MATH AND SCIENCE, OR WHETHER THESE ARE ANALYTICAL AND SCIENTIFIC DATA DRIVEN STANDARDS THAT APPLY ACROSS ALL EDUCATION VERTICALS, YOU KNOW, LANGUAGE ARTS.

MUSIC, WHATEVER.

SO THE TAKES ARE WRITTEN WITH PROCESSED STANDARDS, WHICH ARE THOSE KIND OF TARGET STANDARDS, WHICH IS REALLY LIKE THE SECOND THING YOU DESCRIBED THAT WOULD CROSS CONTENT AREAS AND ALLOW STUDENTS TO BE CRITICAL PROBLEM SOLVERS AND STRATEGIC THINKERS IN ALL CONTENT AREAS AND ELECTIVES.

GOT IT. THANK YOU.

THE OTHER ONE OF THESE THAT STOOD OUT FOR ME WAS THE EXPANDED COURSE OFFERINGS IN FINE ARTS IN THE SIXTH GRADE.

AND SO, YOU KNOW, OUR MUSIC PROGRAM HAS SORT OF LONG BEEN THE SIXTH GRADE MUSIC PROGRAM HAS SORT OF LONG BEEN SOMETHING THE DISTRICT IS KNOWN FOR.

RIGHT. AND THEN I WAS THINKING ABOUT THIS THIS WEEK AND THE THE FINE ARTS CENTER, HOW THAT TAKES A MUCH MORE EXPANSIVE VIEW OF WHAT FINE ARTS LOOKS LIKE TO THE DISTRICT.

RIGHT? THERE'S THEATER SPACES.

THERE'S LIKE A BALLET ROOM IN THERE.

THERE'S THE KILN ROOM FOR POTTERY, THERE'S TECHNICAL THEATER OPPORTUNITIES.

SO IN ADDITION TO MUSIC AND SO I AS I WAS REVIEWING THIS, I SORT OF FELT LIKE, WELL, I FEEL LIKE WHAT WE'VE DONE IS DISCORDANT WITH WHAT HAS BEEN LAID OUT AND THE IN THE FUTURE FINE ARTS CENTER AND WHAT OUR VISION FOR FINE ARTS IS FOR THE DISTRICT.

[00:45:06]

SO I WAS JUST HOPING YOU ALL COULD TALK THROUGH THAT A LITTLE BIT AND EXPAND ON WHAT YOU'RE THINKING THERE.

AND AND WHY? BECAUSE IT'S ONE THAT GAVE ME A LOT OF REFLECTION THIS WEEK.

AND I THINK THE VISION THERE, AND I'LL LET DR.

ANDERSON FILL IT IN MORE.

BUT I THINK THE VISION THERE IS TO TAKE A LOOK AND ASK THE QUESTIONS THAT YOU JUST ASKED.

AND I DON'T KNOW THAT WE'RE GOING INTO IT WITH ANSWERS.

I THINK WE'RE GOING INTO IT WITH AN OPEN MIND TO BEGIN GATHERING INPUT FROM STUDENTS AND STAFF AND PARENTS AND TRY TO TRY TO LOOK AT WHERE WE WANT TO GO WITH FINE ARTS.

AND I DON'T KNOW IF YOU WANT TO ADD ANYTHING TO THAT.

I AGREE, LISA. AND I ALSO THINK THAT STUDENTS AT THE MIDDLE LEVEL, THEY SPEND KINDERGARTEN THROUGH FIFTH GRADE TAKING ART, MUSIC AND P.E. AS THEIR SPECIALS.

THEN THEY GO TO SIXTH GRADE AND THEY'RE ONLY ALLOWED TO PICK A MUSIC.

AND SO IF YOU ARE SOMEONE WHO IS SPECIFICALLY GIFTED IN ART, FOR EXAMPLE, YOU HAVE TO GO INTO A MUSIC AND THEN GO TAKE ART WHEN YOU GET INTO SEVENTH GRADE.

SO I THINK WE NEED TO EXPLORE OPTIONS ABOUT STUDENTS AND WHERE THEIR PASSIONS AND GIFTS LIE.

AND AND MAYBE IT'S NOT JUST IN THE MUSIC AND CAN WE EXPAND THAT SO THAT WE'RE MEETING THE NEEDS FOR ALL OF OUR KIDS? CAN I ASK YOU A QUESTION? OKAY. SO LET ME THINK WHICH PILLAR WE'RE TALKING ABOUT, THE TALENT ACQUISITION PILLAR OR WHAT'S THE PO? I'M SORRY, PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVE.

PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVE, THERE YOU GO.

WE TALK ABOUT THE NEW PISD LEADERSHIP DEFINITION IN TALENT ACQUISITION AND THE TEACHING AND LEARNING.

CAN YOU EXPAND ON THAT? AND THEN ALSO IN THAT SAME PERFORMANCE, OBJECTIVE SIX, THEY TALK ABOUT THE NATIONAL BOARD COHORT TRAINING CERTIFICATION AND THAT I LOOKED IT UP, IT'S LIKE 2000 FOR TWO YEARS PER TEACHER, BUT IT SEEMS LIKE AN AWESOME PROGRAM FOR A REALLY STELLAR TEACHER TO GET INTO AND MAYBE THERE'S SOME COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS IN THERE.

BUT ANYWAY, IF YOU'LL TELL ME ABOUT THAT, JUST EXPAND ON THAT PISD LEADERSHIP DEFINITION.

SO DR. ANDERSON AND DR.

WILLIAMS HAD STARTED WORKING LAST YEAR WITH HOLDSWORTH ON DEFINING THE LEADERSHIP DEFINITION.

AND SO WE GET TO CONTINUE THAT WORK THIS YEAR.

AND REALLY IT'S BASED AROUND THE VISION OF PLANO ISD.

SO THOSE THREE THINGS COMMITTED TO EXCELLENCE, DEDICATED TO CARING, POWERED BY LEARNING, AND THEY'VE BROKEN THAT DOWN INTO REALLY COMPETENCIES AND DESCRIPTORS OF WHAT WE WANT TO SEE IN OUR LEADERS, OUR TEACHER LEADERS, OUR CAMPUS LEADERS, LEADERS ON THE STAFF OF ALL TYPES.

SO WHAT DO WE WANT OUR FOLKS TO BE EXHIBITING? AND WE HAD A GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO WORK WITH ALL STAFF AT THE DISTRICT LEVEL ON HOW DO WE HOW DO WE OPERATIONALIZE THAT VISION IF THAT'S REALLY WHO WE WANT TO BE? AND THOSE ARE THE KINDS OF THINGS WE WANT OUR STAFF TO BE DOING.

HOW DO WE MAKE SURE THOSE THINGS ARE HAPPENING? SO IT'S A IT'S A GREAT LEARNING OPPORTUNITY, BUT IT'S ALSO JUST A GREAT THING TO ASCRIBE TO THAT YOU WANT TO BE AND OUR LEADERSHIP DEFINITION WAS CREATED BY A TASK FORCE OF 40 TEACHERS, COUNSELORS, PEOPLE IN TRANSPORTATION FACILITIES. IT WAS A NICE CROSS-SECTION OF EMPLOYEES AROUND THE DISTRICT WHO CAME TOGETHER OVER THE SERIES OF FOUR OR FIVE SESSIONS AND CREATED THIS LEADERSHIP DEFINITION BASED OFF OF THE WORK THAT WE'VE BEEN DOING AT HOLDSWORTH.

AND WE ARE GOING TO BE BRINGING A PRESENTATION TO YOU GUYS, I THINK, NEXT MONTH ABOUT THAT SPECIFICALLY.

AND THAT NATIONAL COHORT THING.

. YEAH, SO NATIONAL BOARD CERTIFICATION, I DON'T WANT TO STEAL THE LIMELIGHT FROM IVAN, OUR DIRECTOR OF PROFESSIONAL LEARNING, WHO'S GOING TO BE TALKING ABOUT THAT IN A MOMENT, AS IF AS A NATIONAL BOARD CERTIFIED TEACHER IN MY PAST, I CAN TELL YOU THAT IT WAS HANDS DOWN, THE MOST AMAZING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT I EVER DID AS A TEACHER. IT ALLOWS YOU TO REALLY GET TO KNOW WHO YOUR STUDENTS ARE AND UNDERSTAND HOW YOU DESIGN LEARNING.

AND IT'S PROBABLY THE CLOSEST THING I WOULD SAY TO THE BAR FOR THOSE WHO ARE ATTORNEYS.

AND IT'S JUST AN OPPORTUNITY TO REALLY WORK HARD TO DEMONSTRATE YOUR CRAFT.

WELL, I WOULD LOVE TO SEE THAT WE COULD EXPAND THAT TO MORE OF OUR TEACHERS.

AND A QUESTION THAT JUST POPPED INTO MY HEAD, WOULD THAT BE SOMETHING THAT COULD BE USED ESSER FUNDS COULD BE USED FOR, OR IS THAT TOTALLY NOT STUDENT OUTCOME DRIVEN? THERE IS A LITTLE BIT OF OPPORTUNITY FROM THE STATE TO GET REIMBURSED FOR SOME OF THAT.

[00:50:03]

BUT THERE ARE ALSO OPPORTUNITIES.

THERE ARE DISTRICTS THAT LOOK INTO PARTNERSHIPS TO TRY TO SUPPORT THAT BECAUSE IT IS KIND OF A BIG CHUNK OF MONEY UP FRONT.

YEAH, BUT IT LOOKS REALLY I LOOKED AT THE CONTENT OF THE TRAINING, IT'S AMAZING, IT REALLY IS.

I WANT TO ADD QUESTIONS.

WHEN WHEN YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT THE WEST PLANO WRAPAROUND SERVICE, WHEN IS THAT OPENING GOING TO HAPPEN? I'M GOING TO TURN IT OVER TO DR.

GOBER. THAT'S NOT AN EASY ANSWER.

DO I TURN IT OVER TO DR.

GRAY? RIGHT NOW, I CAN TELL YOU WHERE IT IS IN THE PROCESS.

RIGHT NOW, WE'RE AWAITING PERMITTING FROM THE CITY OF DALLAS.

I DO PLAN TO GIVE THE BOARD A THOROUGH UPDATE ON OUR NEXT BOARD MEETING IN SEPTEMBER 20TH.

AND BUT IF YOU HAD TO PRESS ME ON IT, I WOULD SAY WE'RE LOOKING AT END OF CALENDAR YEAR 23.

OKAY. AND THEN OVER UNDER PILLAR ONE UNDER GOALS, AND THEN SECTION THREE WITH THE MULTIPLE PATHWAYS AVAILABLE FOR STUDENTS TO BE COLLEGE CAREER AND OUR MILITARY READY TO ALLOW EVERY STUDENT OPPORTUNITY TO EARN CMR STATUS WITH A MULTIPLE PATHWAYS, ARE WE GOING TO ADD ANYTHING NEW OR WE'RE GOING TO KEEP WHAT WE HAVE? WELL WE'LL, I DON'T THINK WE PLAN TO GET RID OF ANYTHING, BUT WE WANT TO FIND OTHER [INAUDIBLE].

SO AS YOU RECALL, THERE ARE A VARIETY OF WAYS A STUDENT CAN BE CCMR CAN REACH THE CCMR STATUS AT THE STATE LEVEL.

AND WE JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE WE'RE EXPLORING ALL OF THOSE AND MAKING SURE WE HAVE ALL KINDS OF OPPORTUNITIES FOR STUDENTS TO BE ABLE TO MEET THOSE.

SO IF YOU DON'T, LET'S SAY YOU'RE JUST NOT A GREAT TEST TAKER, SO YOU'RE NOT GOING TO MEET IT BY A CERTAIN SCORE ON THE ACT PER SAY.

BUT YOU MIGHT YOU MIGHT HAVE A REAL PASSION IN A CERTIFICATE AREA AND EARN AN INDUSTRY BASED CERTIFICATE AND BE PREPARED AND HAVE THAT TYPE OF THAT TYPE OF PRESTIGE.

IN TERMS OF CMR ALREADY, WE ALSO WANT TO LOOK, I THINK I MENTIONED THE COLLEGIATE ACADEMY.

THAT WOULD BE ANOTHER PATHWAY THAT STUDENTS COULD BEGIN TO GET COLLEGE READY.

SO I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE WE OPEN THE DOORS FOR EVERY TYPE OF STUDENT TO BE CCMR READY.

OKAY. WITH THE ECONOMY, ARE WE CONSIDERING LIKE IS IT SIMILAR TO THE AP CLASSES? [INAUDIBLE] A COLLEGIATE ACADEMY IS A COMBINED EFFORT WITH A UNIVERSITY OR A COLLEGE.

AND SO THE STUDENT WOULD EARN CERTAIN CREDITS FOR HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION, BUT ALSO WOULD EARN ENOUGH CREDITS TO MAYBE GET A TWO YEAR DEGREE.

SO THEY WOULD GRADUATE NOT ONLY WITH A HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA, BUT WITH A TWO YEAR DEGREE FROM A FROM A COLLEGE.

OKAY. THANK YOU. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS BEFORE I CALL FOR A MOTION? ALL RIGHT. THIS IS AN ACTION ITEM.

MAY I HAVE A MOTION? I MOVE THAT THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES APPROVES PART ONE OF THE 2022 TO 2023 PLAN OF WORKS, GOALS AND STRATEGIES, WHICH INCLUDES THE GOALS AND STRATEGIES FOR THE FIVE STRATEGIC PLAN PILLARS.

THANK YOU, IS THERE A SECOND? I'LL SECOND.

SECOND.

I HAVE A MOTION BY ANGELA POWELL.

SECOND BY LAUREN TYRA THAT THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES APPROVES PART ONE OF THE 2020 223 PLAN OF WORK, GOALS AND STRATEGIES, WHICH INCLUDES THE GOALS AND STRATEGIES FOR THE FIVE STRATEGIC PLAN PILLARS.

IS THERE FURTHER DISCUSSION? OK HEARING NONE. WE'LL PROCEED TO VOTE.

ALL IN FAVOR, PLEASE RAISE YOUR HAND.

THAT MOTION PASSES UNANIMOUSLY 6 TO 0.

[9.1. Communications Department Update Presenter: Lesley Range-Stanton, Chief Communications Officer]

OK WE WILL MOVE ON TO SECTION NINE OF THE AGENDA, THE REPORTS SECTION.

WE HAVE A COMMUNICATIONS UPDATE TO LEAD US OFF.

AND LESLIE RANGE STANTON IS GOING TO TAKE US THROUGH, LESLIE.

THANK YOU, PRESIDENT STOLLE, AND GOOD EVENING TO OUR BOARD OF TRUSTEES.

I WANT TO GIVE YOU A BRIEF UPDATE OF WHAT SOME OF OUR PRIORITIES ARE GOING TO BE IN THE COMMUNICATIONS DEPARTMENT THIS YEAR.

AS A REMINDER, OUR ONGOING PRIORITIES CONSIST OF THOSE THAT YOU SEE ON THE SCREEN AND WON'T READ THEM ALL OUT LOUD.

BUT SPECIFICALLY THIS YEAR, WE'RE GOING TO FOCUS ON THESE ITEMS HERE ON THE SCREEN.

WE HAVE A NEW SUPERINTENDENT, SO THERE ARE SOME PR AROUND JUST THAT EFFORT.

OUR BOND INVADER ELECTIONS ARE COMING UP IN NOVEMBER.

THE LEADERSHIP AND AMBASSADOR PROGRAM, SCHOOL PR LIAISONS AND E NEWS, CAMPUS CONNECTIONS, VIDEO COLLABORATION WITH CTE.

LET'S TALK THE NEXT STEPS FOR THAT PRODUCT VOLUNTEERS AND PARTNERS AND RELAUNCHING THE RSVP PROGRAM.

AND THEN AT THE END, WE JUST HAVE A LIST OF OUR BIG EVENTS COMING UP FOR THIS YEAR.

SO WITH OUR FOCUS PRIORITIES, OUR NEW SUPERINTENDENT ENGAGEMENT WE HAVE, WE COMPLETED OUR ROUND OF MEET AND GREETS IN THE SPRING.

[00:55:08]

WE'VE LAUNCHED A WEBSITE THAT'S AT PISD EDU SLASH SUPERINTENDENT AND WE'VE GOT INFORMATION THERE, INCLUDING SOME OF THE SUPERINTENDENTS APPEARANCES.

WE. WE ARE PLANNING ON SHARING WHERE WE HAVE STARTED SHARING MONTHLY VIDEO MESSAGES.

THAT'S CALLED TERESA'S TAKE, SHARING ONGOING ENGAGEMENT EFFORTS VIA OUR WEBSITE AND SOCIAL MEDIA, INCLUDING OUR MONDAY CABINET MEETINGS, MISSION MONDAYS.

OF COURSE, THE MISSION MONDAYS THIS WEEK HAPPENED TODAY ON TUESDAY.

SO BUT WE'RE STILL CALLING IT MISSION MONDAYS.

SCHEDULING, COMMUNITY ROUNDTABLES.

WE'VE BEEN WORKING ON THAT.

DR. WILLIAMS HAS BEEN HAVING LOTS OF ONE ON ONE MEETINGS WITH COMMUNITY MEMBERS ALREADY.

WE WERE LOOKING AT A COMBINATION OF SCHEDULING OUR COMMUNITY BASED INFORMATION NIGHTS.

HOWEVER, RIGHT NOW THOSE ARE GOING TO BE FOCUSED ON THE ELECTIONS AND SAFETY AND SECURITY.

SO INCLUDED IN IN WHAT WE JUST LISTED.

THE PHOTO THERE THAT YOU SEE IN THE MIDDLE IS LAST WEEK'S FILMING OF THE SEPTEMBER TERESA'S TAKE.

SO THAT'S GOING TO BE REALLY GREAT WITH SOME OF OUR STUDENTS.

OUR NEXT FOCUS PRIORITY, THE BOARD AND VADER ELECTIONS.

WE'RE HELPING WITH THE INFORMATION CAMPAIGN THAT'S RUNNING FROM AUGUST THROUGH ELECTION DAY IN NOVEMBER.

WE LAUNCHED A WEBSITE THE EVENING THE BOND WAS CALLED ON AUGUST 16TH.

ONGOING INFORMATION HAS BEEN SHARED WITH STAFF, MEDIA, FAMILIES AND VIA SOCIAL MEDIA.

THE HANDOUTS, PRESENTATIONS AND VIDEOS ARE BEING CURATED RIGHT NOW SO THAT WE CAN START ALL OF THOSE INFORMATIONAL MEETINGS.

SO THE BOARD HAS SOME OF THOSE ITEMS AND THEN THE THINGS THAT ARE TOO THAT ARE COMING SOON WILL BE FINALIZED THIS WEEK AS OUR FIRST COMMUNITY MEETING IS NEXT MONDAY NIGHT, SEPTEMBER 12TH, AT HAGGARD MIDDLE SCHOOL.

SO THAT'S THAT'S COMING UP REALLY FAST.

AGAIN OUR WEBSITE FOR THE BOND AND VADER ELECTIONS IS WWW.PISDEDU/ ELECTION2022.

THE LEADERSHIP AMBASSADOR PROGRAM CONTINUES TO BE A FOCUSED PRIORITY OF OUR DEPARTMENT.

IT'S LOTS OF INVOLVED AND ONGOING PLANNING, BUT OUR FIRST LEADERSHIP AMBASSADOR PROGRAM MEETS NEXT TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 13TH.

WE'VE GOT A GREAT CLASS OF 29 AND WE'RE EXCITED TO WELCOME THEM AND CONTINUE THEIR PROGRAMING THROUGH THE SPRING WITH AGAIN, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A GRADUATION IN APRIL THIS YEAR.

THE CAMPUS CONNECTIONS.

I WANT TO SAY THANKS TO OUR TRUSTEES WHO ARE PARTICIPATING IN THE RED SHIRTS.

THE RED SHIRTS ARE BACK.

WE HAVE RIGHT NOW 175 DISTRICT ADMINISTRATORS SERVING AS VOLUNTEERS TO 75 SCHOOLS OR DISTRICT SITES.

AND THIS IS A BIG PART OF OUR DEDICATED TO CARING, PART OF OUR VISION STATEMENT.

SO WE THANK YOU.

I THINK YOU ALL RECEIVED YOUR T-SHIRTS TODAY.

SO THANKS SO MUCH.

AND E NEWS, E NEWS HAS KIND OF BEEN ON A HIATUS SINCE COVID.

SO IN MARCH OF 2020, WE KIND OF SWITCHED TO A DAILY UPDATE FOR PARENTS THAT WE WERE GETTING THE INFORMATION OUT FAST AND FURIOUS, AND WE HAVE CONTINUED WITH THE UPDATES, BUT WE WANT TO BRING BACK OUR NEWSLETTER.

WE ARE LOOKING FOR A NEW TOOL.

OUR HOME GROWN HOMEGROWN E NEWS SYSTEM IS GOING ON IS BEING SUNSET IS NOT CURRENT TECHNOLOGY AND IT DOES NOT UPHOLD CURRENT STANDARDS FOR SAFETY AND SECURITY ONLINE.

SO WE ARE MOVING AWAY FROM THAT PRODUCT AND WE'RE LOOKING FOR A NEW TOOL TO RELAUNCH E NEWS AND OUR DISTRICT DIGEST TO TO STAFF. AND SO THAT'S JUST ANOTHER WAY TO GET OUR GOOD NEWS, TO KIND OF FULFILL THAT MISSION OF LET NO GOOD STORY GO UNTOLD IN OUR SCHOOL PR LIAISONS PROGRAM IS A BIG PART OF THAT.

SO WE'VE GOT.

LET'S SEE. 74 SCHOOL PR LIAISONS FOR THIS SCHOOL YEAR AND THEY HAVE BEEN ACTIVELY POSTING INFORMATION SINCE THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL.

THEY WERE PROVIDED WITH A SOCIAL MEDIA CALENDAR TO HELP THEM SHARE INFORMATION AT THEIR CAMPUS AND KNOW KIND OF WHAT THE DISTRICT IS GOING TO BE FOCUSING ON AS WELL.

AND I SHARED A LITTLE SNIPPET OF SOCIAL MEDIA EXPOSURE.

I USE THE FOURTH QUARTER OF 2021 22 COMPARED TO FOURTH QUARTER OF 2020, 2021.

AND YOU CAN SEE, EXCEPT FOR TOWARD THE END OF THE SCHOOL YEAR, THERE WERE WHERE THOSE KIND OF OVERLAP THAT THE INCREASE IN SOCIAL MEDIA EXPOSURE WAS DEFINITELY VISIBLE.

[01:00:03]

AND I THINK THAT'S A LOT DUE IN PART TO OUR SCHOOL PR LIAISONS.

OUR SOCIAL MEDIA STATS.

RIGHT NOW, WE'VE GOT 28,000 FACEBOOK FANS, 4.8 FOLLOWERS ON INSTAGRAM.

INSTAGRAM IS A NEWER FOR US, SO WE'VE BEEN SLOWLY BUILDING UP OUR FOLLOWERS ON INSTAGRAM AND 44,000 FOLLOWERS ON ON TWITTER.

AND ALL OF THOSE ARE UP FROM I THINK THAT'S A YEAR OVER YEAR COMPARISON.

ANOTHER PRIORITY FOR THIS YEAR.

IT KIND OF SPEAKS TO THE EXTENSION OF CTE THAT LISA TALKED ABOUT AND SHE TALKED ABOUT CAPSTONE PROJECTS. SO WE ARE EXTENDING OUR COLLABORATION WITH OUR AVI PROGRAM IN CTE.

WE'RE HOPING THAT ONCE STUDENTS ARE WORKING WITH US, THEY CAN WALK AWAY WITH A REAL SOME EXPERIENCE UNDER THEIR BELT.

AND WE WOULD HOPE TO BE A BIG PART OF THAT CAPSTONE EXPERIENCE FOR THOSE STUDENTS.

AND, YOU KNOW, WE ALSO GET BECAUSE OUR VIDEO TEAM, I THINK WE DO AMAZING VIDEOS IN PLANO ISD, BUT I THINK PEOPLE FORGET THAT OUR VIDEO TEAM IS TWO PEOPLE.

AND SO HAVING STUDENTS HELP WITH BUILDING UP AN ARCHIVE OF VIDEO CLIPS.

WE'RE WORKING ON LOTS OF.

TECHNOLOGY SOLUTIONS, BUT WORKING WITH THE STUDENTS.

SO A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO IN MY OFFICE, WE HAD ANOTHER MEETING WITH OUR FRIENDS FROM CTE.

LET'S TALK, LISA ALSO MENTIONED LET'S TALK THAT HAS THAT'S BEEN IMPLEMENTED AT THE DISTRICT LEVEL.

OUR NEXT STEP FOR LET'S TALK IS TO IMPLEMENT IT AT THE CAMPUS LEVEL.

THIS YEAR, WE ARE WE HAVE SIX SCHOOLS.

WE SAY SIX SCHOOLS.

WE MIGHT GET MORE, BUT WE HAVE AT LEAST SIX SCHOOLS ARE GOING TO BE PILOTING THE EXPANSION OF THAT PROGRAM.

SO WE'VE ALREADY STARTED BUILDING THEIR BACK END AND WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE.

SO STARTING IN JANUARY, THEY'RE GOING TO START USING IT IN EARNEST.

SO WE WILL HAVE AT LEAST SIX CAMPUSES AND WE HAD SOME PRINCIPALS WHO RAISED THEIR HAND RIGHT AWAY AND SAID, WE REALLY WANT TO TRY THIS, SO WE'RE LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE.

SO I THINK IT'S BEEN SUCCESSFUL AT THE DISTRICT LEVEL.

THE MAIN POINT IS TO HAVE A CENTRALIZED PLACE WHERE PEOPLE CAN REACH THEIR SUBJECT MATTER EXPERTS QUICKLY.

AND LET'S TALK HAS BEEN ABLE TO HELP US WITH THAT.

A FEW STATS THERE.

YOU CAN SEE THE DIALOG VOLUME TRENDS WE LAUNCHED IN OCTOBER OF 2021.

SO IT HASN'T BEEN QUITE A YEAR YET.

AND IN THAT TIME BETWEEN OCTOBER AND AUGUST, WE HAVE HAD 3800 ENGAGEMENTS.

OUR AVERAGE RESPONSE TIME AND LET'S TALK IS 1.1 DAYS.

OUR AVERAGE CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE SCORE IS 8.9.

AND IF YOU WERE TO LOOK AT THIS SCHOOL YEAR ALONE, THAT NUMBER WOULD BE 9.4.

SO IT'S THIS WAS FOUR OVER TIME.

SO FROM BEGINNING TO THE END OF AUGUST THERE.

AND THEN I THOUGHT THESE STATS HERE, YOU KNOW, WHO WHO ARE WE HEARING FROM? MOSTLY PARENTS AND GUARDIANS.

AND WE WOULD EXPECT THAT.

BUT I THINK IT'S INTERESTING THAT 15% OF OUR EMPLOYEES ARE USING LET'S TALK AND WE'VE HAD SOME SOME STUDENTS AS WELL AND COMMUNITY MEMBERS.

AND I KNOW THAT THIS DOES NOT ADD UP TO BE EXACTLY 100%, BUT IT'S BECAUSE SOME PEOPLE ARE BOTH PARENT AND EMPLOYEE.

SO SOME OF THAT OVERLAPS.

I ASKED K12 INSIGHT TO BE SURE THAT THAT'S WHAT I WAS SAYING THERE.

AND THEN CONTINUING WITH OUR FOCUS PRIORITIES IN THE ENGAGEMENT ARENA, WE ARE EXTENDING WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO GROW A VOLUNTEER BASE THROUGH VOLLEY. WE ARE WORKING ON CREATING A FORMAL PARTNERS IN EDUCATION PROGRAM OR PI PROGRAM, AND WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A LOT OF FUN WITH THAT PI WORD THERE. AND THEN WE ARE IMPLEMENTING THE PARTNERSHIP MODULE OF VOLLEY, AND THAT IS A SYSTEM WHERE SCHOOLS CAN POST NEEDS AND COMMUNITIES CAN POST WHAT THEY HAVE, AND SO HOPEFULLY THEY CAN MATCH UP THERE.

SO THE THE DONOR CAN SHOP FOR THINGS THAT PEOPLE NEED AND THE SCHOOLS CAN KIND OF SHOP FOR WHAT DONORS HAVE.

SO WE'RE HOPING THAT THAT'S GOING TO WORK REALLY WELL.

AND A BIG PART OF THAT IS VACANT POSITION THAT WE'VE HAD FOR A LONG TIME IN OUR DEPARTMENT WITH BRITTNI USSERY GOING DOWN TO THE EDUCATION FOUNDATION.

BUT WE HAVE HIRED SOMEONE NEW AND I KNEW THAT SHE WAS THE RIGHT PERSON.

YOU WILL GET TO MEET MILLICENT SOON.

SHE STARTS NEXT MONDAY, BUT WHEN I CALLED HER LAST WEEK, SHE SAID, WELL, YOU KNOW, I THINK YOU ALL HAVE A LEADERSHIP AND AMBASSADOR PROGRAM ON THE 13TH, RIGHT? I REALLY WANT TO BE THERE FOR THAT.

SO I WAS LIKE, I THINK THAT WAS THE RIGHT PERSON.

SO I'M EXCITED ABOUT HER.

[01:05:02]

AND FOR VOLUNTEER ENGAGEMENT, THIS NUMBER, IT LOOKS DIFFERENT NOW THAN IT DID.

AND I THINK I TOOK MY LAST SNAPSHOT THIS MORNING.

I JUST WENT AHEAD AND POSTED ANOTHER ONE IN THERE.

SO THE VOLUNTEER HOURS ARE GOING UP.

THE VOLUNTEER NUMBERS, THOSE ARE GOING UP, TOO.

BUT YOU CAN SEE IN 2020 WHEN WE LAUNCHED, WE LAUNCHED IN A VERY INTERESTING YEAR WHEN SCHOOLS WERE NOT OPEN TO THE PUBLIC, BUT WE STILL MANAGED SOMEHOW TO HAVE 761 HOURS OF VOLUNTEER TIME.

WE HAD SOME FOLKS DOING VIRTUAL VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES, WHICH WAS REALLY NEAT.

LAST YEAR WE HAD MORE THAN 13,000 VOLUNTEER HOURS.

AND SO FAR THIS YEAR WE'VE LOGGED 200, ABOUT 280, AND THAT NUMBER WAS A LITTLE BIT HIGHER WHEN I CHECKED A FEW MINUTES AGO.

SO WITH THE NEXT FOCUS IS RSVP, ONE OF OUR FAVORITE PROGRAMS. SO OUR RSVP MEMBERS HAVE BEEN CONTINUING TO GET THEIR DISCOUNTS AND OR FREE ADMISSION, BUT WHAT THEY HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO DO SINCE BEFORE COVID WAS COME TO OUR CAMPUSES TO LEARN.

SO WE ARE WORKING ON BRINGING BACK THOSE LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES AT THE CAMPUS AND WE WANT TO SEE OUR RSVP MEMBERS ON CAMPUS THIS YEAR AND THEY WANT TO BE ON CAMPUS.

THEY'VE BEEN REACHING OUT. SO THEY ARE EAGER TO BE BACK AT THE FLORAL DESIGN OR HAVING LUNCH AT THE PLANO EAST BISTRO WITH THE CULINARY ARTS KIDS GOING OVER TO THE OUTDOOR LEARNING CENTER.

WE GIVE THEM A LOT OF OPPORTUNITIES TO ENGAGE AND LEARN.

WE CAN'T WAIT TO GET THAT STARTED AGAIN.

WE'RE WORKING ON THAT. AND FINALLY, THIS IS OUR OVERVIEW OF OUR BIG EVENTS THIS YEAR, AND I HAVE AN ASTERISK BESIDE OUR TWO GRADUATION DATES.

I DON'T WANT TO ANNOUNCE THEM PUBLICLY.

WE ARE WAITING FOR CONTRACTS TO BE FINALIZED, BUT IN THE EARLIEST PARTS OF JUNE IS WHEN THOSE ARE SCHEDULED FOR ACADEMY AND THE SENIOR HIGH GRADUATIONS.

AND THAT IS.

THAT'S IT. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? THANKS, LESLIE. QUESTIONS? I HAVE A QUESTION, BUT I HAVE TO SAY THAT YOU'RE DOING AN AMAZING JOB WITH THE LEADERSHIP PROGRAM THAT WE STARTED LAST YEAR, AND THAT LESS TALK IS LOOKING A LOT.

VERY GOOD. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU. I HAD TWO QUESTIONS.

THE FIRST IS THE BOND INVADER WEBSITE IS YOU'RE HOSTING ALL OF THESE COMMUNITY MEETINGS.

ARE Y'ALL TRACKING LIKE A FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION AND GETTING LIKE GETTING HAVING A FAKE Q SECTION AND GETTING ANSWERS TO THAT UP THAT IF YOU'RE GETTING THE SAME QUESTIONS OVER AND OVER AND THAT RIGHT NOW THE QUESTIONS WE'RE GETTING ARE THROUGH.

LET'S TALK. AND I THINK THE COUPLE THAT I'VE BEEN ABLE TO ADDRESS, ONE WE ARE GOING TO ADDRESS BY LISTING CAMPUS BY CAMPUS, WE HAVE ALREADY BUILT A CAMPUS PAGE, A PAGE FOR EVERY CAMPUS IN PLANO ISD TO SAY, I'M GOING TO GO TO THIS CAMPUS WEBSITE AND SEE HOW THE BOND AFFECTS MY CAMPUS.

SO THAT'S ONE QUESTION.

PEOPLE WANT TO KNOW WHAT'S HAPPENING AT THEIR SCHOOL.

WE ALREADY HAVE FAQS ON THE WEBSITE UNDER BOND AND UNDER VADER, BUT WE WILL DEFINITELY ADD TO THEM LIKE WE'VE DONE IN YEARS PAST.

IF WE SEE FREQUENTLY ASK QUESTIONS, WE WILL ADD THEM TO OUR FAQ TO THE LAST TIME IN 2016 WE HAD ONE QUESTION IN PARTICULAR. SO FREQUENTLY WE MADE A WHOLE NEW VIDEO ABOUT IT.

SO IF WE NEED TO PUSH OUT NEW INFORMATION, SO WE'VE GOT AN EXPLAINER VIDEO COMING OUT ANY DAY NOW.

BUT THE EXPLAINER VIDEO IS KIND OF THE ANIMATED BIG PICTURE OVERVIEW.

SO THAT'S THE FIRST VIDEO.

AND THEN WE'LL HAVE ANOTHER MORE DETAILED OVERVIEW VIDEO FOR EACH ELECTION PROPOSITION THAT CAN BE CHUNKED OUT INTO SMALLER VIDEOS.

SO IF YOU ONLY WANT TO HEAR ABOUT THE VADER PROP A OR IF YOU ONLY WANT TO HEAR ABOUT THE BOND PROP B AND SO ON, THOSE CAN BE SEPARATED.

BUT AS AS WE MOVE ALONG, THE WEBSITE WILL EVOLVE.

IT'S CHANGING DAILY.

THEN I HAVE SOME, SOME OTHER CHANGES.

BUT THE BIG THING WITH THE WEBSITE THAT WE ARE TRYING TO GET OUT BEFORE THAT FIRST MEETING ON MONDAY IS MAKING SURE THAT CAMPUSES CAN GO TO A PAGE AND SEE HOW THE BOND AFFECTS THEIR CAMPUS.

OK SECOND QUESTION IS ABOUT SCALE, AND THIS APPLIES, I THINK, BOTH TO LIGHT TALK AND TO SOCIAL MEDIA AND, YOU KNOW, STARTUPS WHEN THEY'RE TRYING TO GO FROM, YOU KNOW, A FIVE PERSON TEAM DOING A LITTLE BIT OF REVENUE TO A 100 PERSON TEAM DOING A LOT MORE IN REVENUE.

THIS IS SOMETHING THAT'S A VERY SENSITIVE ISSUE.

YOU MAY START WITH ONE CUSTOMER SERVICE REP THAT'S SERVICING A HANDFUL OF ACCOUNTS, AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN YOU'VE GOT 25 CUSTOMER SERVICE REPS SERVICING MANY MORE ACCOUNTS.

AND IT'S IT'S GREAT BECAUSE YOU'RE MAKING MORE MONEY, BUT AT THE SAME TIME.

[01:10:04]

YOU ARE INTRODUCING MORE VARIABILITY INTO THE SYSTEM.

AND SO, YOU KNOW, THE SCALE QUESTION IS, IS THAT AS WE HAVE MORE PEOPLE POSTING ON THE SOCIAL MEDIA ACCOUNTS OR SCHOOLS OR AS WE HAVE CAMPUSES INTERACTING DIRECTLY THROUGH, LET'S TALK I WONDERING IF YOU WOULD JUST SORT OF TALK ABOUT WHAT SORT OF TRAINING AND QUALITY CONTROL FEATURES ARE IN PLACE LIKE ARE YOU GIVING THEM TOOLKITS OR ARE THEY, YOU KNOW, BEING TRAINED LIKE.

YOU KNOW HOW TO DE-ESCALATE IF A PARENT IS UPSET AND, YOU KNOW, VALIDATE THAT PARENT'S FEELINGS AND DE-ESCALATE AND THIS SORT OF THING.

HOW HOW IS THE QUALITY CONTROL HAPPENING ON THAT SCALE FOR BOTH THOSE? SO. WELL, I CAN TALK ABOUT TRAINING NOW.

AS FAR AS THE DE-ESCALATION, I THINK THAT THE COMMUNICATION THAT CAMPUSES ARE DOING RIGHT NOW WOULD ALREADY FEATURE SOME OF THE THINGS THAT IT'S NOT GOING TO BE A IT'S JUST A NEW WAY TO GET INFORMATION.

BUT IT REALLY IS MANAGING AN EMAIL BOX.

IT'S SIMILAR TO MANAGING AN EMAIL BOX.

WE'VE LEARNED RIGHT NOW OUR PRINCIPALS ARE WANTING TO BE THE ONLY ONE ANSWERING.

THAT'S HOW THEY'VE STARTED.

THEY'RE LIKE, OK. THEY KNOW THAT THE ANSWERS HAVE TO BE CONTROLLED IN A CERTAIN WAY.

I THINK ONCE THEY GET STARTED AND USED TO IT, THEY'LL EXPLAIN, EXPAND IT.

BECAUSE THAT'S THE POINT IS SO THAT PEOPLE ARE GETTING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER.

EXPERT AS FAR AS THE WE ARE BUILDING SOME BEST PRACTICES.

WE WILL HAVE GUIDELINES.

THE TOOLKIT THAT YOU TALK ABOUT.

THAT'S A THAT'S A GOOD USE OF THE WORD, BUT WE'LL DO A TRAINING SIMILAR TO VOLLEY.

SO WITH VOLLEY WE HAVE A WHOLE TRAINING SITE FOR INTERNAL.

IT INCLUDES A VIDEO AND ALL OF THOSE THINGS.

SO AS WE MOVE AND EXPAND WITH LET'S TALK, WE'LL HAVE SOMETHING SIMILAR IN THE WORKS THAT WILL INCLUDE VIDEO IN PERSON TRAINING THE TEAM AT THE COMPANY THAT RUNS.

LET'S TALK THEY HAVE A LOCAL REP NOW WHO SAYS, I'LL COME, I'LL COME OUT TO YOUR SCHOOL, I'LL COME TO YOUR DEPARTMENT.

SO THEY ARE REALLY EAGER TO HELP US USE THE TOOL TO THE THE BEST OF OUR ABILITY AND THE CAPACITY.

AND THEY LIKE TO TELL US THAT THEY USE PLANO ISD AS AN EXAMPLE OF HOW TO ROLL OUT.

LET'S TALK THEY THEY PULL UP OUR SITE AND SHOW IT FREQUENTLY TO OTHER DISTRICTS, WHICH WE THINK IS GREAT.

WE'VE BEEN DOING IT FOR A YEAR NOW, BUT BUT HAVING THOSE BEST PRACTICES AND GUIDELINES, THAT'S DEFINITELY SOMETHING THAT WE ARE WORKING ON.

IS THERE SOMETHING ELSE THAT YOU WERE LOOKING TO HEAR? WELL, SORT OF THE SAME. YOU FOCUS A LOT ON.

LET'S TALK AND I KNOW THIS WAS IN ONE OF THE PILLARS ON THE SOCIAL MEDIA, LIKE ARE THE CAMPUS SOCIAL MEDIA PEOPLE BEING GIVEN LIKE ON THAT CALENDAR IDEAS FOR POSTS OR ARE THEY GOING OUT AND SEARCHING FOR CONTENT ON THEIR OWN? OR ARE THEY BEING BEING GIVEN CONTENT OR CONTENT SUGGESTIONS LIKE HOW IS HOW IS THE QUALITY CONTROL SORT OF BEING MAINTAINED ON SOCIAL MEDIA SPECIFICALLY? SO THE SCHOOL PR LIAISONS DO HAVE TRAININGS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, SO THEY WILL WILL CONTINUE TO TRAIN WITH THEM.

AND THERE IS AN OVERALL I GUESS THE CALENDAR DOES HAVE SOME HASHTAGS AND THINGS LIKE THAT.

BUT THEN INDIVIDUALLY LIKE WE HAVE OCTOBER IS PRINCIPAL APPRECIATION MONTH.

THEY WILL RECEIVE A TOOLKIT WITH IDEAS AND SUGGESTIONS ON HOW TO CELEBRATE AND HOW TO POST AND GO FROM THERE.

BUT AND SO THEY'LL GET THEIR TOOLKITS FOR THAT TRAINING AS WELL AS THE SUGGESTIONS FROM THE SOCIAL MEDIA CALENDAR OF WHAT HASHTAGS THAT USE OR WHAT THAT MIGHT LOOK LIKE.

SO THE CAMPUSES ARE ALREADY ON SOCIAL MEDIA.

WE'RE JUST HELPING FEED.

IT GOES BOTH WAYS. THEY'RE GIVING US NEWS, WE'RE GIVING THEM INFORMATION TO USE, BUT WE GET NEWS FROM THEM TOO, TO HELP.

LIKE I SAID, LET NO GOOD STORY GO UNTOLD.

THAT'S WHAT WE'RE AIMING FOR.

HEY, LESLIE, I JUST WANTED TO SAY THANK YOU, BECAUSE HUGE APPRECIATION FOR THE WORK YOU'RE DOING THROUGH VOLLEY.

AND LET'S TALK.

I KNOW THAT IF TAMI WAS STILL ON THE BOARD, SHE WOULD SHE WOULD ECHO THAT BECAUSE I THINK SHE AND I BOTH ALWAYS WANTED TO HAVE A REALLY GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE TOOL. AND SO DESPITE COVID AND ALL OF THE UPHEAVALS THROUGH THAT TIME FRAME, YOU'VE BEEN ABLE TO DELIVER THIS AND WE'RE A BETTER DISTRICT FOR IT.

SO THANK YOU. BECAUSE WITH AS MANY FAMILIES AND, YOU KNOW, STUDENTS THAT WE HAVE, THIS IS AN AMAZING TOOL.

SO THANK YOU. WE TRULY APPRECIATE THE WORK.

WELL, THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING IT.

LESLIE, I HAVE A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS ON THE PILOT PROGRAM FOR THE ELEMENT OR FOR THE SCHOOL LEVEL.

[01:15:02]

LET'S TALK DO WE HAVE THE SCHOOLS IDENTIFIED? I DON'T KNOW ALL OF THEM.

I DON'T KNOW IF IF SHAWNA KNOWS THEM YET OR NOT.

NOT QUITE. I DON'T KNOW THEM BY HEART, BUT I'LL PUT IT IN A BOARD UP.

YEAH. IF YOU, IF YOU DON'T MIND.

AND THEN THE SECOND QUESTION I SORT OF RELATED WHICH IS WELL ACTUALLY LET ME BACK UP AND ASK, ARE THEY SECONDARY CAMPUSES? THEY'RE A MIXTURE OF ALL OK.

SO WHEN YOU WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING AT YOUR STATS THAT YOU PULLED, YOU KNOW, BY FAR PARENTS AND GUARDIANS WERE THE HIGHEST USE OF LET'S TALK LAST YEAR WITH WITH STUDENTS BEING THE LOWEST. ARE WE ANTICIPATING AT THE CAMPUS LEVEL THAT THERE MAY BE MORE STUDENT ENGAGEMENT OR IS THERE AN OPPORTUNITY FOR MORE STUDENT ENGAGEMENT THROUGH LET'S TALK? OR THERE'S DEFINITELY AN OPPORTUNITY.

I DON'T ANTICIPATE THAT IT WOULD BE ORGANICALLY STUDENTS ARE GOING TO FIND IT BECAUSE CAMPUSES ARE USING IT.

I THINK IT'S STILL GOING TO BE PARENTS, BUT I DO THINK THAT SHARING THE TOOL WITH MAYBE OUR STUDENT LEADERS THAT COME AND HAVE LUNCH WITH US EVERY MONTH, THAT MIGHT BE A WAY TO GET THAT WORD OUT.

BUT THE STUDENTS ARE I MEAN, THEY MAY NOT BE THE CUSTOMER THAT WE'RE NECESSARILY INTENTIONALLY TARGETING.

IT REALLY IS PARENTS AND COMMUNITY MEMBERS.

AND SO YOU SEE THAT AND EMPLOYEES WHO MAY NOT KNOW WHERE TO GO TO TO FIND THE RIGHT RESPONSE.

BUT STUDENTS THAT MAY COME I MEAN, YOU CAN IMAGINE THE KINDS OF QUESTIONS WE GET FROM STUDENTS.

THOSE ARE THE SUPER TENACIOUS.

YOU KNOW, THEY WANT AN ANSWER.

THEY YOU KNOW, THEY'RE ASKING ON BEHALF OF A GROUP OR SOMETHING ALONG THOSE LINES.

BUT BUT WHEN THEY FIND US, WE'RE EXCITED AND WE TRY TO REPLY RIGHT AWAY.

YEAH, I THINK OF OUR, OF OUR CUSTOMER BASE.

AND YOU INCLUDE IT LOOKS LIKE EMPLOYEES AND STUDENTS WERE ACTUALLY COMMUNITY MEMBERS WERE LOWER SIGNIFICANTLY THAN PARENTS.

I MEAN, TRULY PARENTS ARE GOING TO BE THE ONES WHO ARE GOING TO UTILIZE THIS PROBABLY THE MOST.

AND AND IT'S GREAT ESPECIALLY THAT WE HAVE A 9.4 RATING.

I THOUGHT THAT WAS AWESOME FOR THE SCHOOL FOR THE YEAR.

I MEAN, THAT SAYS A GREAT DEAL ABOUT THE PROGRAM ITSELF.

IF THERE'S A WAY TO LEVERAGE IT RIGHT WITH OTHER PARTS OF THE COMMUNITY, THIS PARTICULAR COMMUNITY, EMPLOYEES, STUDENTS, YOU KNOW, LET'S THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX OF HOW TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN. BUT UNDERSTANDING FULLY THAT MOST LIKELY IT'S PARENTS WHO ARE THE TARGET HERE.

YEAH. AND ONE OF THE NEW FEATURES AND I KNOW WE TALKED ABOUT THIS LAST YEAR AND IT WASN'T YOU GUYS WEREN'T NECESSARILY EXUBERANT ABOUT A CHAT BOT, BUT THE CHAT BOT HAS EVOLVED AND IT'S REALLY A SUPER COMPREHENSIVE FAQ.

SO IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE'RE STILL WANTING TO MOVE TOWARD, AND WE WILL, BUT WE'RE GOING TO ROLL OUT OUR PILOT FIRST AND THEN START INCORPORATING SOME OF THE OTHER TOOLS. LESLIE, TOUCHING ON WHAT DAVID WAS JUST TALKING ABOUT FOR STUDENTS THAT NEED TO REPORT SOMETHING, I KNOW WE HAVE THE STUDENT HOTLINE OR I GUESS IT'S A TIP HOTLINE, NOT JUST STUDENT ONE.

IS THERE AN ONLINE COMPONENT TO THAT OR WOULD POTENTIALLY LET'S TALK BE SOMETHING THAT THEY WOULD USE? WE'VE TALKED ABOUT THAT A LITTLE BIT, BUT WE'RE STILL USING THE TIP LINE THAT THEY'RE USED TO, THAT IT'S BUILT FOR, THAT IT'S GOT THE RIGHT PEOPLE MONITORING THAT ALREADY.

AND WE EVEN TRY TO PUSH FOLKS TO I THINK IF YOU GET TO CERTAIN TOPICS, IT'LL PUT IN FRONT OF YOU THE TIP LINE TO USE.

SO THAT'S GOING TO BE THE FIRST LINE, AT LEAST FOR NOW.

SO SO IS THE TIP LINE IS ONLY A NUMBER TO CALL.

NO, NO, NO. IT'S ONLINE.

IT IS. IT IS ONLINE.

YEAH. SO I THINK IT'S PISD.EDU/TIPLINE AND IT TAKES YOU TO THE FORM.

SO THERE'S AN ONLINE FORM THAT YOU CAN FILL OUT.

IT'S PRETTY COMPREHENSIVE.

YOU CAN UPLOAD IMAGES.

IT'S IT'S A REALLY GREAT TOOL AND YOU CAN ACCESS IT FROM THE MOBILE APP.

SO IF YOU HAVE THE PLANO ISD MOBILE APP, THE TIP LINE IS ON THE FIRST SCREEN.

AND SO WE TRY TO KEEP THAT FRONT AND CENTER FOR STUDENTS TO BE ABLE TO FIND AND USE.

AND SO LET'S TALK IS NOT MEANT TO REPLACE THAT TIP LINE AT ALL.

AND WE HAVE ON CAMPUS TRAINING FOR STUDENTS TO KNOW ABOUT THE..

I DON'T KNOW THE ANSWER TO THAT, BUT WE I KNOW THAT WE HAD A VIDEO A FEW YEARS BACK WHERE WE DID THIS WHOLE CAMPAIGN OF TODAY RIGHT NOW PUT THE TIP LINE AND DOWNLOAD THE MOBILE APP.

YOU CAN ACCESS THE TIP LINE.

AND SO I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE ONGOING TRAINING IS.

AND DR.

ANDERSON, I DON'T KNOW IF YOU HAVE INFORMATION ON THAT.

THEY ARE QUITE FAMILIAR, BUT IT IS ALSO ON ALL OF THE ID BADGES.

THE ID BADGES AS A AS A.

IT'S SENATE BILL 279 THAT REQUIRES THAT.

SO IT'S IT'S OUT THERE.

OKAY. THANK YOU.

WELL, AND I THINK THAT I HAVE A QUESTION THEN ON THE LET'S TALK.

IS THAT ANONYMOUS? BECAUSE THE TIP LINE IS ANONYMOUS.

NO, LET'S TALK IS NOT ANONYMOUS.

[01:20:03]

SO THE CHILDREN WOULD BE MORE INTERESTED IN GOING TO THE TIP LINE FOR ANONYMITY.

RIGHT. YEAH. AND IT IS AN ANONYMOUS REPORTING TOOL.

THE TIP LINE, LET'S TALK IS NOT ANONYMOUS.

SO WE REQUIRE TO KNOW WHO WE'RE RESPONDING TO IN ORDER TO RESPOND.

YEAH, IT WOULD BE NICE FOR US TO HAVE A COMPREHENSIVE UPDATE ABOUT THE TIP LINE AS IS APPROPRIATE.

I THINK WE'D BE INTERESTED TO KNOW ABOUT ITS REPORTING AND HOW'S IT GOING AND I THINK THAT'S THE QUESTION.

IT WAS A QUESTION I HAD CODY BEFORE YOU ASKED IT.

YEAH. YEAH. AND JUST THE THOUGHT, I MEAN, I THINK THERE'S AN IMPORTANT NEXUS BETWEEN STUDENT KNOWLEDGE OF THE TIP LINE AND OUR SEL INITIATIVES AND FOR STUDENTS TO UNDERSTAND THE REPORTING MECHANISMS. YOU KNOW, I THINK THAT'S IMPORTANT AND I THINK THERE'S A NEXUS BETWEEN THAT AND SAL.

SO POTENTIALLY SOMETHING TO INTEGRATE.

I'M SURE SHARON IS WRITING THAT DOWN IN HER NOTES.

ALL RIGHT LESLIE, YOU'RE OFF THE HOOK, APPRECIATE IT.

THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT.

THAT'S REPORT NUMBER ONE.

[9.2. 2022 Summer Learning - Summer School Data Presenter: Dr. Courtney Gober, Assistant Superintendent for Student, Family, and Community Services]

REPORT NUMBER TWO IS GOING TO BE A REPORT ON OUR 2022 SUMMER LEARNING SUMMER SCHOOL DATA AND WE ARE GOING TO HAVE DR. COURTNEY GOBER LEAD US.

YES, THANK YOU, PRESIDENT STOLLE AND BOARD MEMBERS.

BEFORE I GET STARTED, I WANT TO MAKE SURE I ALSO THANK.

THIS IS NOT MY PRESENTATION, BUT I ALSO THANK OUR SUMMER SCHOOL STAFF, INCLUDING OUR SUMMER SCHOOL COORDINATOR, KATY FLORES, AND ALL OF THE TEACHERS AND PRINCIPALS THAT WORKED THIS SUMMER.

IT WAS A HARD SCHOOL YEAR LAST SCHOOL YEAR, SO ASKING PEOPLE TO WORK ANOTHER FOUR OR FIVE WEEKS WAS A BIG TASK, BUT MANY PEOPLE DID AND WE HAD A SUCCESSFUL SUMMER SCHOOL.

I'LL BE FAST AND FURIOUS HERE.

FIRST, I'M GOING TO GO THROUGH ALL OF OUR PROGRAMS AND REALLY JUST THE ENROLLMENT THEREOF.

WE HAD OUR BILINGUAL ESL, PRE-K KINDERGARTEN PROGRAM, TOTAL 743 KIDS.

I DID ABOUT THREE AND A HALF WEEKS OF LEARNING.

OUR PAL OR OUR PLANO ACADEMY OF LEARNING.

THIS IS SORT OF THE STUDENTS THAT WE INVITE TO SUMMER SCHOOL BECAUSE MAYBE THEY WERE NOT SUCCESSFUL IN ONE THING OR ANOTHER.

WE HAD 2000.
