[6. PUBLIC COMMENT SESSION]

[00:15:05]

NAME IS DR. MOLLY MARTINEZ. I'M A PARENT OF A KINDERGARTNER AT STINSON ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. I AM ALSO A CHILD AND ADOLESCENT PSYCHOLOGIST AND I'M WANTING TO SPEAK TO YOU ALL TODAY ABOUT AN ISSUE RELATED TO TEACHER REASSIGNMENT THAT AFFECTED MY CHILD THIS YEAR. YOU ALL HAVE, MOST OF YOU RECEIVED AN EMAIL FROM ME TO THIS EFFECT BUT I JUST WANTED TO COME AND PRESENT FACE TO FACE AS WELL. I WANT TO THANK FIRST OF ALL, [INAUDIBLE] ANDERSON THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF SCHOOL LEADERSHIP AND INNOVATION THERESA WILLIAMS THE CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER OF PISD. BETH BROCKMAN THE ASSISTANT SUPERINTENDENT OF EMPLOYEE SERVICES AND MICHELLE TAYLOR THE PRINCIPAL OF STINSON ELEMENTARY FOR MEETING WITH ME ALREADY ABOUT THIS AND ANSWERING SOME QUESTIONS THAT I HAD AT THE TIME THAT I WROTE THE EMAIL SO I REALLY APPRECIATE BEING HEARD BY THEM AND THE TIME THAT THEY'VE INVESTED IN LISTENING AND ACCEPTING FEEDBACK FROM A PARENT PERSPECTIVE ON THIS ISSUE. SO I'M GOING TO JUST BRIEFLY ADDRESS THE WHAT WHY WHO WHEN AND HOW OF MY CONCERNS. SO WHAT IS TEACHER REASSIGNMENT AND THAT SPECIFICALLY MEANS TEACHERS THAT ARE TAKEN OUT OF A SCHOOL BECAUSE OF LOW ENROLLMENT AND OR TEACHERS THAT ARE BROUGHT TO A SCHOOL DUE TO UNEXPECTED HIGH ENROLLMENT. THE WHY OF THIS THEN IS THAT AFFECTS ME PERSONALLY IS ENROLLMENT AND CLASS SIZE BECAUSE CLEARLY WHEN WE'RE BRINGING TEACHERS IN OR  TAKING TEACHERS OUT THIS AFFECTS THE NUMBER OF STUDENTS IN A CLASSROOM AND THE STUDENT TO TEACHER RATIO WHICH MOST OF US ARE FAMILIAR WITH EDUCATION UNDERSTAND IS LOWER RATIOS ARE BETTER FOR OUR STUDENTS BY AND LARGE. WHO THIS AFFECTS BELOVED TEACHERS WITHIN SCHOOL COMMUNITIES IT AFFECTS OUR STUDENTS BOTH THE ONES THAT ARE AFFECTED BY A TEACHER BEING TAKEN OUT OF A GRADE LEVEL. ONE MINUTE. PARDON? ONE MINUTE. THAT'S ALREADY. IT'S ONE MINUTE LEFT. LEFT OK. AND THE WHEN IN TERMS OF PROJECTIONS THAT WERE BASED ON LAST YEAR'S ESTIMATES THAT WERE NOT ACTED ON WHEN WE HAD NUMBERS FROM THE KINDERGARTEN ROUNDUP THAT WERE NOT ACTED ON WHEN WE HAD FALL ENROLLMENT NUMBERS THAT WERE NOT ACTED ON WHEN TEACHERS WERE ASSIGNED TWO OR THREE DAYS BEFORE THE SCHOOL YEAR STARTED BUT WE'RE NOT ACTED ON UNTIL TWO WEEKS AFTER THE SCHOOL YEAR. AND THEN THE HOW JUST WE GOT A LETTER HOME ON MONDAY THAT OUR KIDS WOULD BE IN A DIFFERENT CLASS ON TUESDAY. THE TEACHER WAS GOING TO BE REASSIGNED. WE HAD LIKE TWO DAYS TO GET MAKE THAT TRANSITION AND THAT'S JUST NOT ACCEPTABLE ON A NUMBER OF LEVELS. MY SUGGESTION IS THAT PRACTICE WHAT WE WOULD USE PROJECTIONS THAT ARE BASED ON ACTUAL NUMBERS NOT ESTIMATES THAT WE WOULD MAKE THESE DECISIONS MUCH CLOSER TO THE START OF THE SCHOOL YEAR SO THAT FEWER PEOPLE ARE DISRUPTED AND IF A DECISION HAS TO BE MADE FOR REASSIGNMENT THAT IS MADE BASED ON A NEW TEACHER BEING BROUGHT IN AND NOT AND CLASS SIZES BEING REDUCED RATHER THAN INCREASED. YOUR TIME HAS EXPIRED. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. NEXT WE HAVE DINA ROGERS. HI. THANK YOU GUYS FOR HAVING US TONIGHT.  A LOT OF MY COMMENTS ARE KIND OF JUST GOING TO DOVETAIL OFF OF WHAT MOLLY MARTINEZ SPOKE ABOUT. AND AGAIN I'M DINA ROGERS. I'VE BEEN A MOM AT STINSON ELEMENTARY SINCE 2007 AND MY YOUNGEST TWO KIDS ARE THERE NOW. SO IT'S A LOT OF YEARS

[00:20:07]

BUT OF COURSE WHEN YOUR LIFE'S WORK IS KIDS IT GETS A LOT MORE COMPLICATED. SO WE LOVE STINSON BUT WE GOT HANDED SOME SERIOUS LEMONS LATELY AND I WON'T GO OVER IT BECAUSE I THINK MOLLY DID A GOOD JOB BUT WITH REASSIGNING A TEACHER SO ABRUPTLY BREAKING UP A CLASS AND ESSENTIALLY CAUSING CHAOS. YOU KNOW WE GOT HANDED THE LEMONS BUT I DON'T SEE US MAKING LEMONADE OUT OF THIS SITUATION BECAUSE THE NUT SHELL WAS CLASSES WERE FORMED AND THEN A TEACHER A VALUABLE LINCHPIN TO THE WHOLE SITUATION WAS SUBTRACTED. AND IT'S THE WORST KIND OF MATH I'VE SEEN TAKE PLACE AT STINSON IN 12 YEARS. SO I'M HERE BECAUSE I WANT TO SPEAK UP OR SPEAK OUT ABOUT NOT JUST FOR THE TEACHER WHO WAS MISTREATED IN THIS SITUATION OR THE KIDS WHO WERE PARCELED OUT AND JUST TREATED LIKE NUMBERS AND TO BE MOVED TO OTHER CLASSROOMS THAT ARE NOW KIND OF BURSTING AT THE SEAMS. FRANKLY I WAS DISAPPOINTED BY ONE OF THE FORM LETTERS I GOT BACK FROM THE DISTRICT WHEN I COMPLAINED. AND I WON'T GO INTO ALL OF THAT BUT THE LINE THAT STUCK OUT AT ME AND THE ONE THAT'S WITH ME WHEN I FALL ASLEEP AT NIGHT IS WHILE OUR DEMOGRAPHERS ARE QUITE ACCURATE IN PREDICTING STUDENT ENROLLMENT AND THEN IT GOES ON TO SAY THAT THE DISTRICT HAS AN ESTABLISHED PROCESS. YOU HAVE ONE MINUTE. TO DETERMINE WHEN TEACHERS TO REASSIGN IN ORDER TO BE FAIR AND EQUITABLE. I DON'T THINK THERE WAS ANYTHING FAIR AND EQUITABLE ABOUT THIS. YOU KNOW THIS ISN'T BALANCING A CLASSROOM IS IT BALANCING A CHECKBOOK OR A SCALE OR AN INANIMATE OBJECT. THERE ARE HUMANS, MISTRUST RESULTED, CHAOS, FURIOUS PARENTS, EXASPERATED TEACHERS, LOST WORK TIME, LOST TEACHING TIME AND A HUGE DENT FRANKLY TO THE PISD REPUTATION. SO FINALLY I'LL JUST SAY THAT AS I WAS ON MY WAY HERE IT OCCURRED TO ME THAT IT FEELS LIKE A BIT OF A FRANKENSTEIN MONSTER WAY OF RUNNING A SCHOOL DISTRICT OR OF MAKING THESE DECISIONS. THE NUMBERS DIDN'T ADD UP SO WE JUST KIND OF LOPPED OFF A LIMB OR IN THIS CASE MORE ACCURATELY A HEART AND EVERYTHING WENT AWRY AFTER THAT. AND IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE IT CREATES LONG TERM PROBLEMS. AND I WISH DEMOGRAPHERS AND DECISION MAKERS COULD UNDERSTAND THIS. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. NEXT WE HAVE [INAUDIBLE] SCOTT. HI GUYS. GOOD EVENING. MY NAME IS [INAUDIBLE] SCOTT. I AM THE FOUNDER OF THE YOUTH FEMALE ORGANIZATION DIVAS BUILD FUTURES INC. DIVA STANDING FORWARD TO BE A DETERMINED INTELLIGENT VIRTUOUS AMBITIOUS YOUNG GIRL TO YOUNG WOMEN.

[7. CONSENT AGENDA]

[A. Resolution Adopting the 2019 - 2020 Tax Rate Presenter: Randy McDowell, Chief Financial Officer Time: 15 minutes]

HOUSE BILL THREE DID COMPRESS THE M&O RATE DOWN TO 1.06835 AND THAT WAS JUST OVER A 10 CENT TAX REDUCTION AND SO THAT'S OUT OF OUR CONTROL THAT'S THE CAP OF WHAT OUR M&O RATE CAN BE DUE TO US BEING IN $1.17.

THE I&S RATE IS PROPOSED TO BE AT THE SAME RATE WE ARE LOOKING AT IT ISSUING ADDITIONAL TECHNOLOGY BONDS IN NOVEMBER AND SO THAT WAS PART OF THE BOND PLAN THAT WILL BE IN THE 13 TO 14 MILLION DOLLAR RANGE. WE MAY HAVE A ONE YEAR PAYBACK ON THOSE BONDS WE MAY HAVE THE ABILITY TO DO THAT. WE DON'T THINK IT WILL BE MORE THAN TWO BUT WE WILL KEEP YOU POSTED AS WE CONTINUE TO WORK THROUGH THAT. BOND RATES ARE VERY LOW AS YOU KNOW AND SO THAT'S WORKING TO OUR ADVANTAGE. IT'S A GOOD TIME TO ISSUE. THEY'RE REALLY AT A HISTORIC LOW. SO OUR TOTAL PROPOSED RATE FOR 19-20 IS $1.33735.

AND AGAIN THAT IS SLIGHTLY MORE THAN A 10 CENT DECREASE FROM THE PRIOR YEAR. WE'VE GOT A HISTORY OF OUR TOTAL TAX RATE HERE THAT GOES BACK 10 YEARS AND THE PROPOSED $1.33 AND SOME CHANGE THAT'S THE LOWEST WE'VE BEEN SINCE BACK IN FISCAL YEAR 2010. SO  WE'RE HAPPY TO SEE THAT GO DOWN AND THE BENEFITS THAT OUR TAXPAYERS SEE. WHEN WE LOOK AT THE IMPACT ON THE AVERAGE RESIDENCE LAST YEAR THE $1.439 CAUSED THE AVERAGE RESIDENT FIVE THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED FOUR DOLLARS IN SCHOOL TAXES. THAT NUMBER IS DOWN EVEN THOUGH THE VALUES HAVE GONE UP ON THE HOMES. THE TOTAL TAXES ARE DOWN ALMOST 180 DOLLARS OR JUST OVER A HUNDRED AND EIGHTY DOLLARS. AND THAT WOULD BE FOUR THOUSAND NINE HUNDRED SIXTEEN DOLLARS ON AN ANNUAL BASIS ON THAT AVERAGE RESIDENCE. WE ALSO POLLED OUR OUR NEIGHBORS AROUND US THAT HAD ADOPTED THEIR TAX RATE OR FELT GOOD

[00:35:01]

THEN FARMERSVILLE IS THE ONLY DISTRICT IN THE AREA THAT IS LOWER THAN OURS. SO WHEN WE LOOK AT THE WELL WHAT PLANO IS CALLED THE STATE RECAPTURE TAX. RECAPTURE WAS BOUGHT DOWN SIGNIFICANTLY BY HOUSE BILL 3 YOU'RE AWARE OF THAT WE'VE TALKED ABOUT THAT IN BUDGET MEETINGS BUT ON THE 19-20 BUDGET RECAPTURE IS IN THE HUNDRED AND SIXTY MILLION DOLLAR RANGE. THE M&O  TAXES THAT WE EXPECT TO KEEP ARE ABOUT FOUR HUNDRED AND TWENTY FIVE MILLION IN TOTAL TAX REVENUE IS DOWN FROM ABOUT SIX HUNDRED EIGHTEEN MILLION DOWN TO FIVE HUNDRED EIGHTY FIVE MILLION BECAUSE THAT COMPRESSION OF THE M&O TAX RATE. THIS IS A GRAPH THAT IS REALLY THE SAME DATA JUST IN A DIFFERENT FORMAT BUT WE DID TAKE A TURN FOR THE BETTER WHEN WE CAN SEE THAT RECAPTURE TAX COMING BACK DOWN DUE TO THE TAX RATE COMPRESSION AND THIS IS ANOTHER GRAPH THAT THE BOARD'S BEEN PROVIDED FOR THE PAST SEVERAL YEARS AND SO IT REALLY SHOWS HOW MUCH OF OUR M&O TAX IN BLUE IS RETAINED BY THE SCHOOL DISTRICT AND HOW MUCH IN RED IS PAID TO RECAPTURE TO THE STATE. LAST YEAR WAS THE PEAK OF THAT WITH THE $1.17 ABOUT 77 CENTS OF THAT WAS STAYING LOCALLY AND APPROXIMATELY 40 CENTS OF THAT WAS GOING TO STATE RECAPTURE. THIS YEAR THAT IMPROVED TO 77.7 CENTS STAYING WITH THE DISTRICT AND JUST OVER 29 CENTS THAT IS GOING AS RECAPTURE. SO SOME OF THE TAX RATES AS WE KNOW IT GETS REAL CONFUSING ON TAX RATE AND LANGUAGE, IT  GOT MORE CONFUSING THIS YEAR WITH THE IMPLEMENTATION OF HOUSE BILL 3. WE WERE REQUIRED TO STILL CALCULATE THE EFFECTIVE TAX RATE AND THAT WAS A $1.488. \AGAIN IT WAS VERY CONFUSING BECAUSE WE WERE USING SOME THINGS THAT WERE OLD LAW AND SOME THINGS THAT WERE NEW LAW UNDER HOUSE BILL THREE AND AT THE TIME WE WEREN'T GETTING MUCH GUIDANCE FROM DEFINITELY NOT FROM THE STATE COMPTROLLER'S OFFICE AND EVEN TEA. BUT OUR EFFECTIVE RATE UNDER THE OLD CALCULATION CALCULATED TO $1.488, OUR TAX RATE NECESSARY TO MAINTAIN THE SAME LEVEL OF MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS REVENUE PER PUPIL WAS $1.17002 THAT WAS ALSO A COMPLICATED RATE THAT WAS SKEWED BY HOUSE BILL 3 AND MOST OF US IN THE SCHOOL BUSINESS LOOKED AT THAT AND IT NEVER HAS MEANT A WHOLE LOT. BUT IT SURE DIDN'T MEAN A LOT THIS YEAR WE WERE ALL CONFUSED BY THE CALCULATION. OF WHAT WE USED TO CALL THE ROLLBACK RATE IS NOW CALLED THE VOTER APPROVED RATE AND SO THAT'S OUR NEW MAXIMUM THAT WE CAN ADOPT AFTER COMPRESSION. SO THAT IS THE $1.33735. SO THAT WAS OUR COMPRESSED M&O RATE AND PLUS AND THEN WE ADD TO THAT OUR I&S RATE TO MEET OUR OUTSTANDING DEBT AND OUR PROPOSED RATE AGAIN IS THE $1.6835 M&O 26.9 CENT I&S FOR A TOTAL OF $1.33735.

AND IF THERE'S ANY QUESTIONS I BELIEVE WE HAVE A RESOLUTION TO READ.

WHEREAS ON JUNE 25TH 2019 THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE PLANO INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT MET IN OPEN SESSION TO HOLD A PUBLIC MEETING TO DISCUSS THE BUDGET AND PROPOSED TAX RATE FOR THE YEAR 2019-2020. AFTER WHICH THE BUDGET WAS ADOPTED AND WHEREAS A TAX RATE OR THE YEAR 2019 IS REQUIRED BY THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 26.05 OF THE PROPERTY TAX CODE AND WHEREAS THE TOTAL TAX RATE CONSIST OF TWO SEPARATE RATES. A DEBT SERVICE RATE AND A MAINTENANCE AND OPERATIONS RATE. AND WHEREAS THE DISTRICT IS NEVERTHELESS REQUIRED BY SECTION  26.05 OF THE PROPERTY TAX CODE TO STATE THAT THIS TAX RATE WILL RAISE LESS TAXES FOR MAINTENANCE AND OPERATION THAN LAST YEAR'S TAX RATE. AND THE TAX RATE WILL EFFECTIVELY BE LOWERED BY 8.69 PERCENT AND WE'LL REDUCE TAXES FOR MAINTENANCE AND OPERATIONS ON A ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLAR HOME BY APPROXIMATELY SEVENTY SIX DOLLARS. NOW IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED BY THE TRUSTEES OF THE PLANO INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT AND THE TAX RATE FOR THE YEAR 2019-20 BY BE SET AT $1.33735 PER 100 DOLLAR VALUATION. THAT'S A $1.06835 DESIGNATED TO MAINTENANCE AND OPERATIONS AND 2.69

[A. Telemedicine Health and Behavioral Health Partnership with Children's Health Presenter: Susan Modisette, Assistant Superintendent for Student and Family Support Services Time: 20 minutes]

ONCE THE SCHOOL NURSE SEES THAT KID DURING THE DAY AND REALLY THIS IS VERY COMMON PEDIATRIC AILMENTS THAT THE NURSE DOES SEE QUITE OFTEN IN THE CLINIC IF SHE DETERMINES THAT A PROVIDER VISIT IS NEEDED THEN SHE WILL SET UP THE APPOINTMENT. THE PARENT CAN BE CONTACTED. WE DO THIS TO GO AHEAD AND GIVE THEM A HEADS UP THAT A  VISIT IS WARRANTED. THEY CAN EITHER CHOOSE TO SAY YES GO AHEAD WITH THE VISIT OR THEY'RE NOT INTERESTED AT THIS TIME BUT IT WILL BE SOMEBODY WHO IS ALREADY PRE  ENROLLED IN THE PROGRAM. CHILDREN'S TAKES CARE OF THAT SIDE OF THINGS AND THEY GIVE THE CAMPUS NURSE A LIST OF STUDENTS SO THE NURSE IS VERY AWARE OF WHAT STUDENTS ARE ABLE TO BE UTILIZING THIS PROGRAM. THE NURSE WILL DO HER USUAL THING DO A CLINIC

[00:50:03]

I GOT THAT AS OF FRIDAY. CHILDREN'S IS VERY HAPPY WITH THAT NUMBER AT THIS POINT IN THE SCHOOL YEAR. THEY SAY THAT IS EXCELLENT. WE WILL KEEP PUSHING ENROLLMENT THROUGHOUT THE SCHOOL YEAR. WE HAVE PLENTY OF FLYERS THAT CAN GO OUT THERE ARE SIGNS THAT EACH OF THESE CAMPUSES. WE WILL KEEP PUSHING THAT AND GETTING PARENTS ENROLLED.  AND THE NURSES HAVE COMPLETED THEIR TRAINING ON THE USE OF THE CART AND THE EQUIPMENT. CHILDREN'S CAME OUT TO US. IT HAS BEEN A GREAT PARTNERSHIP. THEY PROVIDE ALL OF THE TRAINING THEY PROVIDE ALL OF THE SUPPLIES. THEY ARE A GREAT RESOURCE FOR OUR NURSES AND THEY CONNECTED THEM ONLINE ALSO WITH OTHER AREA SCHOOL DISTRICTS WHO ARE ALSO DOING THIS PROGRAM. COULD I ASK A REAL QUICK QUESTION? BACK TO THE THE WHAT CAN BE TREATED. YES. IS THAT [INAUDIBLE] LIST IS THAT ALL THAT CAN BE TREATED? IT'S NOT AN ALL INCLUSIVE LIST. IT WOULD BE YOUR MORE COMMON PEDIATRIC ILLNESS. WHAT THEY DID MENTION IS INJURIES. THEY DON'T NECESSARILY SEE THAT THAT'S PROBABLY BETTER SEEN IN AN URGENT CARE OR AN E.R.

THE SKIN RASHES WHAT THEY SEE MOST OFTEN THEY ARE TOUTING THAT ASTHMA THEY WILL SEE ASTHMA STUDENTS THEY CAN DO PRESCRIPTIONS FOR THAT. SKIN RASHES ARE A BIG THING FOR THEM AND OF COURSE STREP AND FLU SEASON. WELL AND I KNOW THAT THE THAT WE MENTIONED THIS IS NOT INTENDED TO TAKE THE PLACE OF A PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIAN. SO IS IF THE TELE DOC SEES SOMETHING THAT THEY DON'T LIKE IS THE RECOMMENDATION YOU NEED TO GO SEE YOUR YOUR PHYSICIAN YOUR PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIAN BECAUSE OF SOMETHING I SEE. YES OR IF IT'S SOMETHING THAT NEEDS MORE URGENT CARE CERTAINLY THEY WOULD SEND THEM TO URGENT CARE. FOR EXAMPLE MIGHT BE A CHILD GOES OUT THE PLAYGROUND AND HAS A CUT AND IT'S ONE OF THOSE CAN'T TELL WHETHER OR NOT THIS IS THE STITCHES OR NOT STITCHES THAT WOULD BE THEY WOULD RECOMMEND. FOR THE ASTHMA WILL THE NURSE HAVE INHALERS THAT CAN BE ADMINISTERED IF THE TELE DOC SAYS THERE NEEDS TO I MEAN IS THAT NOT? WE DO NOT HAVE STOCK INHALERS IN THE CLINIC. SO IF THE STUDENT ALREADY HAD AN ASTHMA DIAGNOSIS AND MAYBE THEY HAVE ONE BUT THEY'RE EXPERIENCING EXACERBATION THAT COULD BE SOMETHING THEY COULD SEE. BUT THEY DO SEE OUR ASTHMA KIDS FROM THE GROUND UP AND WILL WRITE US ACTION PLANS THAT CAN BE SHARED WITH THE NURSE AND THEN CALL IN THAT ALBUTEROL PRESCRIPTION. AND THEN THE LAST QUESTION  FOR ME IS I THINK THE IDIOM IS NECESSITY IS THE MOTHER OF ALL INVENTION. SO SHOULD A PARENT AND THEIR NOT REALIZING THEY NEED THIS SERVICE UNTIL THEIR CHILD IS ACTUALLY SICK. THAT'S TOO BAD THAT DAY. YES? OR AND HOW QUICKLY THEN CAN THEY GET SIGNED ON WHEN THEY REALIZE THAT THIS IS SOMETHING THEY WISH THEY HAD HAD DONE. IF THEY HAVE ONLINE ACCESS AT THE TIME THEY CAN GO RIGHT IN AND REGISTER CHILDREN WILL GET THAT RAPID TURNAROUND. REALLY? YES HOW GENEROUS OF THAT THEM. SO WHAT IS THE FEE FOR A TELEVISIT? I BELIEVE THEY WILL BILL FOR MEDICAID AND

[00:55:02]

AT THIS TIME, YES. ANOTHER QUESTION. WE HAVE A HIGH DEDUCTIBLE MEDICAL INSURANCE PLAN. IF YOU KNOW IF YOU CHOOSE TO PAY CASH, HOW MUCH THAT WOULD BE? YES. INSTEAD OF. IT'S 50 DOLLARS AND IF YOU PAY IT YES THAT'LL BE THE FULL BILL IF YOU PAY WITHIN TWO WEEKS. I BELIEVE THEY KNOCKED THAT DOWN TO EITHER 25 OR 30 DOLLARS. YOU HAVE A EARLY PAY YOU HAVE AN EARLY PAY OPTION. THAT'S A GREAT DEAL. YES. YES. LESS THAN SOME OF OUR CO-PAYS. YES. THANK YOU. GOOD EVENING. I'M HERE TO DISCUSS OR INFORM YOU ABOUT THE TELEMEDICINE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SIDE OF THE PARTNERSHIP WITH CHILDREN'S MEDICAL CENTER CHILDREN'S HEALTH. SO JUST A QUICK OVERVIEW. THIS PROGRAM IS DESIGNED TO CONNECT LICENSED THERAPISTS WITH STUDENTS DURING THE SCHOOL DAY. SO IT HAS SOME OF THE SAME BENEFITS THAT STACY MENTIONED IN TERMS OF PROVIDING ACCESS TO STUDENTS WHO ARE SUFFERING FROM SOME OF THESE COMMON BEHAVIORAL HEALTH ISSUES. DEPRESSION SELF-ESTEEM ISSUES LACK OF COPING SKILLS. SO IT PROVIDES THAT STUDENT A WAY TO CONNECT WITH A LICENSED THERAPIST DURING THE SCHOOL DAY AND IT REMOVES SOME OF THOSE BARRIERS IN TERMS OF A PARENT NOT HAVING ACCESS OTHERWISE OR NOT HAVING THE ABILITY TO TRANSPORT A STUDENT TO SEE A THERAPIST. SO IT HAS SOME OF THOSE SAME BENEFITS THAT THE MEDICAL SIDE DOES. SERVICES ARE PROVIDED IN ENGLISH AND SPANISH. SO IF A STUDENT'S NATIVE LANGUAGE IS SPANISH AND THEN WE'RE  COMFORTABLE DISCUSSING PERSONAL ISSUES IN SPANISH THAT OPTION IS AVAILABLE. IT WORKS MUCH THE SAME WAY AS THE TELEMEDICINE WHERE AS WE REFER A STUDENT INTO THE PROGRAM AND THEN FROM THERE THEY MAKE FINANCIAL ARRANGEMENTS DIRECTLY WITH THE THERAPIST AT CHILDREN'S HEALTH. THEY ALSO ACCEPT CHIP AND MEDICAID JUST AS THE TELEMEDICINE PROGRAM DOES. I FEEL LIKE STACY ANSWERED A LOT OF MY QUESTIONS SO THANK YOU STACY. THIS IS KIND OF AN OVERVIEW OF WHAT THIS WOULD LOOK LIKE. STACY HAS A BIG FANCY MACHINE BUT WE HAVE A TABLET. SO THE TRAINING WAS VERY SIMPLE WITH COUNSELORS  AND ADMINISTRATORS ON ON THE CAMPUSES THAT WERE PILOTING WITH. AND YOU CAN SEE THIS STUDENT IN THIS EXAMPLE IS USING KIND OF A CHECK IN CARD ABOUT HOW SHE'S FEELING THAT DAY OR THAT MOMENT THAT'S KIND OF A QUICK ROUTE INTO THE DISCUSSION THAT YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE WITH THAT STUDENT AS IN WHAT KIND OF A DAY ARE YOU HAVING AND WHAT ISSUES ARE BOTHERING YOU. AND THEN YOU CAN SEE THERE IN THE SECOND PHOTO THE TELL THE TABLET IS ON A LITTLE STAND AND THE STUDENT IS TAUGHT HOW TO ACCESS THEIR PARTICULAR THERAPIST AND THEN THEY GO INTO A PRIVATE SPACE NEAR THE COUNSELING OFFICE AND THEY HAVE ABOUT A 30 MINUTE SESSION WITH THEIR THERAPIST. AND I ACTUALLY HAVE

[01:00:03]

WE HAVE ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATION GOING OUT TO PARENTS THROUGH OUR E NEWS AND OTHER AVENUES AND THEN WE ALSO HAVE PAPER FLYERS AVAILABLE ON CAMPUSES IF THAT'S A MORE APPROPRIATE WAY TO PROVIDE INFORMATION TO THOSE PARENTS AND THEIR STUDENTS. AND I BELIEVE OPEN HOUSE IS ON ROSANNA'S AGENDA FOR TOMORROW EVENING AT SHEPTON HIGH SCHOOL. SO WE APPRECIATE HER AVAILABILITY THERE AND THESE ARE THE GOALS OF THE PROGRAM AND THEN WE'LL ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU HAVE. WE WANT TO GET IN FRONT OF ISSUES BEFORE THEY BECOME VERY VERY SERIOUS ISSUES. SO IF ROSANNA IS  ABLE TO WORK WITH A STUDENT ON SOME DEPRESSION OR SOME SELF-ESTEEM ISSUES OR TO PROVIDE SOME COPING SKILLS THAT'S WHAT WE WANT TO DO IN ADVANCE OF A VERY SERIOUS ISSUE WITH THE STUDENT.  DESTIGMATIZATION IS ALSO AN IMPORTANT ELEMENT. WE WANT STUDENTS TO UNDERSTAND AND WE'VE DISCUSSED THIS BEFORE IN THIS ROOM THAT BEHAVIORAL HEALTH ISSUES ARE NORMAL. THEY'RE A NORMAL PART OF  LIVING AND EVERYONE STRUGGLES AT ONE POINT OR ANOTHER. AND IT'S A PERFECTLY NORMAL THING TO RECEIVE HELP FROM SOMEONE. SO WE CONTINUE TO WORK WITH OUR STUDENTS AND PARENTS ON THOSE ISSUES. CONVENIENCE AND WE'VE DISCUSSED ALL THE REASONS AND WE KNOW ALL THE REASONS THAT MAY BE BARRIERS TO A PARENT GETTING A STUDENT TO A THERAPY SESSION. WE WANT TO BUILD RESILIENCE. THAT'S AN IMPORTANT PART OF A PROGRAM LIKE THIS GIVING THEM COPING SKILLS SO THAT THEY CAN DEAL WITH THOSE STRESSORS THAT INEVITABLY COME AND THEN REDUCE DEMAND ON LIMITED  RESOURCES. WE DO HAVE PARENTS THAT ARE ABLE TO GET THEIR CHILDREN TO A PSYCHIATRIST OR PSYCHOLOGIST BUT OFTENTIMES TALK THERAPY AND THE KIND OF TREATMENT THAT ROSANNA PROVIDES DURING THE SCHOOL DAY WILL ELIMINATE THOSE ISSUES OR MAKE THEM A LOT BETTER AND HELP THAT CHILD COPE A LOT EASIER WITHOUT HAVING TO PURSUE THESE THESE HIGHER LEVELS OF TREATMENT. SO THAT'S THE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH PROGRAM IN A NUTSHELL. WHAT QUESTIONS CAN I ANSWER FOR YOU. I'M LOOKING AT BULLET NUMBER FOUR THIS IS RESILIENCE AND I'M THINKING ABOUT THESE STUDENTS NEED THE TOOLS BUT IT ALSO MENTIONS PARENTS YOU KNOW IF YOUR CHILD IS NEEDING TO SEE SOME EXTRA SERVICES WHAT WHAT IS THE PARENT ROLE AND HOW WE SUPPORT PARENTS IN  THIS PROCESS. AND I'LL LET ROSANNA WEIGH IN ON THIS BUT I BELIEVE THAT AS SHE'S WORKING WITH THE FAMILY AND WORKING WITH THAT STUDENT SHE CAN ALSO MAKE REFERRALS FOR THE ENTIRE FAMILY OR FOR THE PARENTS OR WHATEVER IS NEEDED. WOULD THAT BE ACCURATE? YEAH WE DO [INAUDIBLE] LASTS ABOUT 45 MINUTES ON THE PHONE WITH PARENTS

[B. Tiered Campus Support and School Improvement Presenter: Dr. Theresa Williams, Chief Operating Officer Time: 15 minutes]

THE PROGRAM WAS DEVELOPED THROUGH A PARTNERSHIP WITH TEA AND EDUCATIONAL SERVICE CENTERS SUCH AS REGION 10. IT IS ALSO SIMILAR TO THE WORK THAT WE PARTICIPATED IN IN LAST YEAR'S PILOT RELAY WITH FOUR DIFFERENT CAMPUSES TIL IS ANCHORED IN [INAUDIBLE] WORK TO IMPROVE INSTRUCTION ON CAMPUSES. [INAUDIBLE] TALKS ABOUT AND IDENTIFIES SEVEN LEVERS ON HOW TO IMPROVES INSTRUCTION ON CAMPUSES.

THE SEVEN LEVERS ARE DDI OR DATA DRIVEN INSTRUCTION OBSERVATION AND FEEDBACK PLANNING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT STUDENT CULTURE STAFF CULTURE AND MANAGING THE SCHOOL LEADERSHIP TEAM. IN TIL WE'RE FOCUSING ON DATA DRIVEN INSTRUCTION OBSERVATION AND FEEDBACK AND STUDENT CULTURE. [INAUDIBLE] CONSIDERS THE TWO SUPER LEVERS OF STUDENT CULTURE AND DDI. SO WE'RE GETTING SOME OF THE SUPER LEVERS FOR OUR HIGHEST NEED CAMPUSES. LAST YEAR IN OUR HIGH RELIABILITY SCHOOLS WE FOCUSED ON SAFE SUPPORTIVE AND COLLABORATIVE CULTURE. THIS YEAR WE'RE FOCUSING ON LEVEL 2 WITH EFFECTIVE TEACHING IN EVERY CLASSROOM AND THE COLLABORATIVE  FRAMEWORK WITH ILC PROCESS TIL PERFECTLY BLENDS IN WITH OUR WORK THAT IS GROUNDED IN HRS AND THE PLC PROCESS. IT'S VERY, IT'S A PERFECT INTEGRATION OF ALL THE WORK THAT WE'RE COMPLETING. THERE ARE THREE COMPONENTS OF THE TRAINING WE'RE PARTICIPATING IN AND OUR FOUR CAMPUSES THAT WE ARE PARTICIPATING IN TIL WITH REGION 10 OUR TRANSFORMATION MODEL SCHOOLS THEY ARE FORMAN, MEMORIAL, MEADOWS AND HUFFMAN. THE THREE COMPONENTS ARE FACE TO FACE PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT IMPLEMENTATION SUPPORT AND ONE ON ONE COACHING. THE FIRST BEING THAT WE PARTICIPATE IN FACE TO FACE PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT. WE HAVE FOUR DAYS OF PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT. WE HAVE COMPLETED TWO DAYS IN JULY. WE HAVE ONE COMING IN OCTOBER AS WELL AS ONE IN JANUARY. OUR CAMPUS TEAMS SEND ABOUT SIX TO SEVEN STAFF MEMBERS INCLUDING THE PRINCIPAL, ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL, INSTRUCTIONAL COACHES AND OR TEACHER LEADERS AND ALSO ALL FIVE EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS FROM SCHOOL LEADERSHIP ARE PARTICIPATING IN THE COURSE ALONGSIDE THE SCHOOLS. OUR SECONDARY EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS ARE ALSO AUDITING SO THEY HAVE THE SKILLS AND THEY CAN IMPLEMENT IN DIFFERENT CAMPUSES. THIS PROGRAM IS A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT IN THAT MOST OF THE COURSES THAT REGION 10 OFFERS IN SCHOOLS GO TO HERE.

IT'S USUALLY JUST FACE TO FACE PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT. THEY GO MAYBE TO A ONE OR TWO DAY TRAINING. THEY COME BACK AND THEY IMPLEMENT BUT ON THE  IMPLEMENTATION SUPPORT SIDE. WE HAVE A INSTRUCTIONAL LEADERSHIP MANAGER FROM

[01:20:06]

[01:25:02]

THE FACE TO FACE REGION 10 TRAINING THAT SHE REFERRED TO AND ON TOP OF THAT THEY'RE ALSO RECEIVING SUPPORT THROUGH THE DST PROCESS AND THEY ALSO HAVE ACCESS TO THE REGION 10 INSTRUCTIONAL LEADERSHIP MANAGER WHO WILL BE KIND OF WALKING SIDE BY SIDE WITH THE LEADERS OF THE CAMPUS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR. OUR SCHOOLS THAT HAVE BEEN DESIGNATED AS LEVEL 2 AND 3 RECEIVING LEVEL 2 AND 3 SUPPORT THEY'LL RECEIVE THAT SUPPORT THROUGH THE DST PROCESS AND THE DST PROCESS IS ANCHORED IN A LOT OF THE THINGS THAT WE'RE LEARNING IN THE TIL TRAINING AND YOU'LL SEE ELEMENTS OF THAT THAT GUIDE OUR WORK WITH OUR SCHOOLS THAT ARE RECEIVING LEVEL 2 AND 3 SUPPORT THROUGH THE DST PROCESS. ALL RIGHT SO WHAT IS THE DST PROCESS? WE LOVE OUR ACRONYMS. DST STANDS FOR DISTRICT SUPPORT TEAM AND THE DISTRICT SUPPORT TEAM IS DESIGNED TO CREATE TO PROVIDE AN ADDITIONAL LAYER OF SUPPORT FOR OUR CAMPUSES AS WELL AS BUILDING CAPACITY IN OUR CAMPUS LEADERS. THE DST IS FOCUSED ON THE CAMPUS NEEDS. THAT'S REALLY THE CENTER POINT OF ALL OF THE WORK THAT'S DONE ON THE CAMPUS AND THERE IS SOME SUPPORT THAT WE'LL PROVIDE FOR SCHOOLS THAT ARE UNIVERSAL ACROSS ALL SCHOOLS FOCUS ON DATA DRIVEN INSTRUCTION A FOCUS ON GETTING IN THE CLASSROOM OBSERVING AND PROVIDING FEEDBACK TO TEACHERS. YOU'LL SEE THAT CONVERSATION SPRINKLED THROUGHOUT ALL OF OUR DST MEETINGS ELEMENTARY AND SECONDARY THAT'S UNIVERSAL THOSE FOCUSES BUT THEN ALSO THE DST WILL LOOK AT THE UNIQUE NEEDS OF EACH CAMPUS AND WE'LL TAILOR THE PLAN TO FIT THAT CAMPUS AND THE SCHOOL COMMUNITY TARDY TARGETING OUR SUPPORT FOR THE NEEDS OF THE CAMPUS. THE TEAM THIS IS A COLLABORATIVE APPROACH. DEFINITELY THE CAMPUS IS AT THE CENTER OF THE DISTRICT'S SUPPORT TEAM PROCESS. BUT IN ADDITION IT'S THE FIVE OF US AND THE SCHOOL LEADERSHIP TEAM AND INNOVATION TEAM THE ASSESSMENT TEAM AND OUR FRIENDS IN THE  ACADEMIC SERVICES. WE ALL COME AROUND. WE WILL SCHEDULE TIMES AND GO OUT AND THOSE GROUPS ALONG WITH THE CAMPUS LEADERSHIP WILL FOCUS ON THE NEEDS AND WHAT THE DATA [INAUDIBLE]. I'LL GIVE AN EXAMPLE HERE IN A SECOND. SO I'M GOING TO GET OFF THE SLIDES A LITTLE BIT AND GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE OF WHAT THIS LOOKS LIKE. THIS IS OFF THE GROUND AND RUNNING WE HIT THE GROUND EVEN BEFORE SCHOOL STARTED HOLDING OUR FIRST DST MEETINGS WITH OUR LEVEL THREE SCHOOLS. AND SO I WANTED TO TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT KIND OF JUST GENERICALLY WHAT THOSE AGENDAS LOOK LIKE BUT THE FIRST MEETINGS WITH OUR LEVEL 3 DST SCHOOLS THERE WAS A KIND OF A SETTING OF THE NORMS OF WHAT THIS DST PROCESS WOULD LOOK LIKE HOW WE WOULD SUPPORT CAMPUSES AND WHAT THAT SUPPORT WOULD LOOK LIKE THROUGHOUT THE YEAR. BUT THEN THE KEY MESSAGE THAT WE REALLY WANTED SCHOOLS TO WALK AWAY WITH IS YOU ARE NOT IN THIS ALONE IT IS NOT JUST THE JOB OF YOU AND YOUR SCHOOL STAFF TO IMPROVE STUDENT LEARNING AND STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT BUT THAT THIS IS A WE THING THAT WE ARE ALL HERE TO SUPPORT THEIR EFFORTS AND KIND OF OWN THE SOLUTION AND WORK SIDE BY SIDE WITH THE CAMPUSES. SO ONCE WE GET BEYOND KIND OF THE  EXPLAINING OF WHAT THE PROCESS IS WE REALLY WE DIVE PRETTY QUICKLY INTO THE DATA AND WE LOOK FOR EVERY PIECE OF DATA THAT WE CAN COLLECT THAT GIVES US SOME SORT OF PATH TO GO TO WORK WITH THE SCHOOL.

I'LL JUST GIVE YOU EXAMPLE FOR OUR SECONDARY WE WERE LOOKING AT THINGS LIKE SEMESTER EXAM DATA FROM THE PREVIOUS YEAR WE'RE LOOKING AT STATE TESTING DATA WE WERE
