[5. CLOSED SESSION]

[6. RECONVENE OPEN SESSION]

WE'LL MOVE ON TO ITEM 7.1, WHICH IS OUR PUBLIC HEARING ON THE 2023 -2024 TEXAS

[7.1 Public Hearing on the 2023 - 2024 Texas Academic Performance Report (TAPR)]

HE IS OUR DIRECTOR AND HE IS GOING TO SHARE WITH US SOME INFORMATION FOR THIS PUBLIC HEARING THAT IS REQUIRED BY THE TEXAS EDUCATION AGENCY EVERY YEAR.

ANTOINE, I DON'T WANT TO INTERRUPT YOU, BUT I DON'T THINK YOUR MICROPHONE IS ON.

OH. OH, OKAY. AND I APOLOGIZE I HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF ALLERGY GOING ON THIS THIS EVENING TOO.

SO LET ME MAKE THIS CLOSER AND LET ME TRY AGAIN.

I APOLOGIZE. IS THIS BETTER? OH, I CAN HEAR BETTER.

OKAY. GOOD EVENING, BOARD PRESIDENT HUMPHREY, DR.

WILLIAMS AND CABINET MEMBERS. I'M PLEASED TO PRESENT THE ANNUAL REPORT FOR PLANO ISD FOR 20 23-24.

IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF TEXAS EDUCATION CODE 39.053, THE COMPREHENSIVE TAPR SYSTEM PROVIDES DETAILS OF DISTRICT AND CAMPUS ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE WITH FINANCIAL REPORTS AND INFORMATION ABOUT STAFF, PROGRAMS AND DEMOGRAPHICS,

[00:35:06]

THOSE ELEMENTS ARE LISTED ON THIS SLIDE. JUST A POINT OF CLARIFICATION.

PLANO ISD PRESENTS THIS REQUIRED DATA WITH THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND COMMUNITY AS IT IS, AS IT IS RECEIVED THROUGHOUT THE YEAR.

THEREFORE, MOST OF THE INFORMATION HAS ALREADY BEEN COVERED. IN ADDITION, YOU WILL NOTICE LINKS TO RELEVANT DOCUMENTS OR LOCATION OF THE DATA FOR SOME OF THE INFORMATION LISTED ABOVE. PART OF THE REQUIREMENT FOR THE ANNUAL REPORT IS AN UPDATE ON PROGRESS TOWARDS HB THREE GOALS.

AS A REMINDER, THOSE GOALS ARE FOR THIRD GRADE READING, THIRD GRADE MATH, AND CCMR. AT THE JANUARY BOARD MEETING, WE PROVIDED PREDICTIONS TOWARD THIRD GRADE MATH AND READING STAAR PERFORMANCE.

AT AN UPCOMING BOARD MEETING, YOU WILL HEAR MORE ABOUT CURRENT CCMR PROGRESS.

AS A POINT OF SUMMARY HOWEVER, I WILL SHARE SOME HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE ANNUAL PERFORMANCE REPORT FOR THE PURPOSES OF THIS PUBLIC HEARING.

IN ADDITION TO COMPILING MULTIPLE DATA POINTS FOR THE ANNUAL PERFORMANCE REPORT, EACH YEAR THE TEXAS EDUCATION AGENCY AWARDS AN ACCREDITATION STATUS TO EACH PUBLIC SCHOOL DISTRICT AND CHARTER SCHOOL. THE ACCREDITATION STATUS IS BASED ON THE ACADEMIC ACCOUNTABILITY RATING AND FINANCIAL RATINGS FROM THE FINANCIAL INTEGRITY RATING SYSTEM OF TEXAS. A DISTRICT OR CHARTER MUST BE ACCREDITED BY THE STATE TO OPERATE AS A PUBLIC SCHOOL.

HOWEVER, THIS YEAR IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT. WE'RE STILL IN THE PROCESS OF RESOLVING LAWSUITS ON THE ACCOUNTABILITY SYSTEM.

AS OF DECEMBER 2024, THE TAPR DOES NOT INCLUDE A THROUGH F RATINGS DISTINCTION DESIGNATIONS DUE TO THE PENDING LITIGATION SURROUNDING THE COMMUNICATION AND IMPLEMENTATION OF THE 2024 RATING SYSTEM.

BASED ON WHAT THE AGENCY IS ALLOWED TO REPORT FOR 23-24, PLANO ISD IS AN ACCREDITED SCHOOL DISTRICT WITH A A SUPERIOR ACHIEVEMENT FINANCIAL FIRST RATING AND HAS A SPECIAL EDUCATION DETERMINATION STATUS OF MEETS REQUIREMENTS, WHICH IS THE HIGHEST RATING YOU CAN RECEIVE.

THE TEXAS ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE REPORT, OR TAPR, PROVIDES A LARGE PORTION OF THE ANNUAL REPORT REQUIREMENTS AND INCLUDES A WIDE RANGE OF DATA FOR THE DISTRICT, INCLUDING DISTRICT STAAR PERFORMANCE AT THE APPROACHES, MEETS, AND MASTER'S LEVEL FOR ALL TESTED GRADES AND SUBJECT LEVELS.

AN ANNUAL GROWTH MEASURE MEASURING STUDENT GROWTH ON STAAR TEST FROM YEAR TO YEAR.

AN ACCELERATED LEARNING MEASURE SHOWING SUCCESS FOR STUDENTS WHO EARN DID NOT MEET GRADE LEVEL IN THE PRIOR YEAR, BUT WERE ACCELERATED TO APPROACHES GRADE LEVEL OR ABOVE IN THE CURRENT YEAR.

BILINGUAL EDUCATION ENGLISH AS A SECOND LANGUAGE DATA.

STAAR PARTICIPATION RATES. ATTENDANCE, GRADUATION AND DROPOUT RATES.

GRADUATION PROFILE INFORMATION SHOWING DIPLOMA TYPES FOR GRADUATING SENIORS.

COLLEGE, CAREER AND MILITARY READINESS INDICATORS AS WELL AS STUDENT AND STAFF INFORMATION.

AT THIS TIME, I WOULD LIKE TO PROVIDE SOME HIGHLIGHTS OF THE TAPR REPORT.

THE FULL REPORT IS AVAILABLE ON THE DISTRICT AND TEA WEBSITES.

THIS CHART SHOWS DISTRICT PERFORMANCE AT THE APPROACHES, MEETS, AND MASTER'S LEVELS COMPARED TO THE STATE AND REGION.

COMPARING PLANO ISD TO THE STATE AND REGION SHOWS HOW OUR STUDENTS PERFORM RELATIVE TO THEIR PEERS.

WE ARE VERY PROUD TO SAY THAT OUR STUDENTS OUTPERFORM THE REGION AND STATE IN EVERY SUBJECT.

AS I MENTIONED EARLIER, THE STATE PROVIDES TWO GROWTH INDICATORS IN THE TAPR REPORT.

THE LEFT SIDE OF THIS CHART SHOWS THE RATE OF ANNUAL GROWTH IN READING MATH IN BOTH SUBJECTS.

THE ANNUAL GROWTH SCORE MEASURES GROWTH FROM ONE STAAR TEST TO THE NEXT, USING A CHART ESTABLISHED BY THE STATE.

INDIVIDUAL STUDENT GROWTH IS CALCULATED AS THE CHANGE BETWEEN LOW DID NOT MEET GRADE LEVEL.

HIGH DID NOT MEET GRADE LEVEL, LOW APPROACHES GRADE LEVEL, HIGH APPROACHES GRADE LEVEL, MEETS GRADE LEVEL AND MASTERS GRADE LEVEL PERFORMANCE FROM THE PRIOR YEAR TO THE CURRENT YEAR. THIS SLIDE SHOWS THE PERCENTAGE OF STUDENTS WHO TRANSITIONED TO A HIGHER LEVEL OR MAINTAINED STATUS AT MEETS OR MASTER'S LEVEL IN 2024. THE ACCELERATED LEARNING SCORES ON THE RIGHT SHOW THE PERCENTAGE OF STUDENTS WHO EARN DID NOT MEET GRADE LEVEL IN THE PRIOR YEAR AND WERE ACCELERATED TO APPROACHES GRADE LEVEL OR ABOVE IN THE CURRENT YEAR.

[00:40:02]

WE ARE AGAIN PLEASED TO REPORT THAT WE HAVE STRONG PERFORMANCE WHEN COMPARED TO THE STATE AND REGION IN ACCELERATED LEARNING AND GROWTH.

CCMR RATES FOR THE DISTRICT OVERALL ARE HIGHER THAN STATE AVERAGE, BUT THIS IS AN AREA FOR CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT.

YOU HAVE SEEN THIS DATA BEFORE AND MAY REMEMBER THAT THERE ARE FREQUENT CHANGES TO THE WAY CCMR GRADUATES ARE DETERMINED.

CCMR DATA LIKE GRADUATION DATA, IS LAGGING DATA DUE TO THE AVAILABILITY AT THE TIME OF THE CALCULATIONS.

THIS DATA IS FROM THE CLASS OF 2023. THE DISTRICT HAS MADE SIGNIFICANT GAINS IN THE NUMBER OF GRADUATING SENIORS EARNING AN INDUSTRY BASED CERTIFICATION, INCREASING FROM 8.5% FOR THE CLASS OF 2020 TO 23% FOR THE CLASS OF 2023.

A FULL CCMR UPDATE WILL BE PROVIDED IN AN UPCOMING BOARD MEETING.

CCMR DATA CAN BE BROKEN DOWN INTO SEVERAL CATEGORIES.

THIS SLIDE SHOWS THE PERCENTAGE OF STUDENTS IN GRADES 11 AND 12 WHO TOOK THE COLLEGE BOARD'S ADVANCED PLACEMENT EXAMINATIONS OR THE INTERNATIONAL BACCALAUREATE EXAMINATIONS, AND INCLUDES OVERALL PERCENTAGES FOR THE DISTRICT, STATE, AND REGION TEN.

THE CHART ALSO INDICATES THE PERCENTAGE OF STUDENTS WITH AT LEAST ONE AP, IB, OR SAT EXAMINATION IN GRADES 11 AND 12 AT OR ABOVE THE CRITERION SCORE.

THE AVERAGE SAT /ACT COMPOSITE SCORE SHOWS THE PERCENTAGE OF GRADUATES WHO SCORED AT OR ABOVE THE CRITERION SCORE ON THE SAT AND ACT.

THE PARTICIPATION AND ACHIEVEMENT RATES ARE FROM THE 2022-23 SCHOOL YEAR AND INDICATE LAGGING DATA.

WE ARE VERY PROUD OF THE ADVANCED ACADEMIC WORK FROM OUR STUDENTS AND TEACHERS IN PLANO, AND YOU WILL NOTICE THAT WE ARE NOT ONLY IMPROVING IN MANY AREAS, WE ALSO EXCEED THE STATE AND REGION IN EACH OF THESE METRICS.

FOUR, FIVE, AND SIX YEAR GRADUATION RATES FOR ALL STUDENTS AND SUBGROUPS ARE INCLUDED ON THIS SLIDE, AS WELL AS 2022-23 DROPOUT RATES. GRADUATION RATES ARE ALWAYS BEHIND BY ONE YEAR AND INDICATE LAGGING DATA.

AS YOU WOULD EXPECT GRADUATION RATES IMPROVE OVER THE SIX YEAR SPAN, AS STUDENTS WHO WERE JUST SHY OF GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS MAY WORK TO COMPLETE THESE AND BE DESIGNATED AS A GRADUATE. WE ARE ALWAYS INTERESTED IN WHAT OUR STUDENTS DO AFTER THEY GRADUATE. THE TAPR HELPS US UNDERSTAND THE INSTITUTIONS OUR STUDENTS ATTEND AFTER GRADUATION.

FOR THE CLASS OF 2023, THE TOP 20 INSTITUTIONS AND THE NUMBER OF PLANO ISD GRADUATES ENROLLED ARE LISTED ON THE SLIDE.

TO FULFILL THE REPORTING REQUIREMENTS FOR STUDENT PERFORMANCE IN POST-SECONDARY INSTITUTIONS, TEA TRACKS PLANO ISD GRADUATES, IN THIS CASE THE CLASS OF 2022, TO TEXAS HIGHER EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS, TWO YEAR AND FOUR YEAR INSTITUTIONS, AND DETERMINES THE GPA PERFORMANCE OF THESE STUDENTS USING A FOUR POINT SCALE.

FROM THE CLASS OF 2022 TEA TRACKED 48% OF PLANO ISD STUDENTS TO TEXAS HIGHER ED.

K EEP IN MIND OTHER STUDENTS MAY HAVE ENTERED COLLEGE OUT OF STATE, THIS ONLY REPORTS TEXAS HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS.

OF THOSE ENROLLED IN TEXAS COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES THAT ARE REPORTED, 01,019 OR 55% OF THE STUDENTS EARNED A GPA OF 3.0 OR HIGHER, AND 1,419 STUDENTS, OR 77%, EARNED A GPA OF 2.0 OR HIGHER.

AS PART OF THE ANNUAL DISTRICT REPORT, PLANO ISD IS REQUIRED TO REPORT THE PROCEDURES THE DISTRICT USES TO PROTECT STUDENTS, A REPORT ON VIOLENT OR CRIMINAL INCIDENTS AT EACH CAMPUS AND CAMPUS PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVES.

AS REQUIRED THESE ARE POSTED ON OUR SAFETY AND ACCOUNTABILITY WEB PAGES.

ANOTHER REQUIREMENT FOR DISTRICTS IS THE DEVELOPMENT OF DISTRICT AND DISTRICT AND CAMPUS IMPROVEMENT PLANS. EACH YEAR, THESE ARE CREATED AFTER A COMPREHENSIVE NEEDS ANALYSIS AND THE OBJECTIVES ARE APPROVED BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES.

THESE REPORTS ARE ALSO AVAILABLE ON THE DISTRICT AND CAMPUS WEBSITES.

FINALLY, THE PEIMS FINANCIAL STANDARD REPORT FOR 23-24 IS LINKED ON THIS SLIDE.

[00:45:03]

THE FINAL BUDGET REPORT IS AVAILABLE NOW AND THE FINAL ACTUAL REPORT WILL BE AVAILABLE.

THE FINANCIAL ACTUAL REPORT WILL BE AVAILABLE ON THE TEA WEBSITE LATER THIS SPRING.

AND THIS CONCLUDES THE PUBLIC HEARING OF THE ANNUAL TAPR REPORT.

ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU SO MUCH. NOW I INVITE TO THE PODIUM ANYONE WHO WOULD LIKE TO COMMENT SPECIFICALLY ON THE ON THE 2023 -2024 TEXAS ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE REPORT, THE TAPR REPORT.

AND I THINK THAT THIS RESOLUTION WAS WELL DESERVED FOR ALL THE ALL THE COMMUNITY I SAY VOLUNTEERISM AND SPONSORSHIP THAT HE'S DONE FOR OUR DISTRICT. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. WE'LL ALL MISS FRED MOSES.

HE WAS A SWEET MAN AND VERY GENEROUS IN THE COMMUNITY.

AND I CAN REMEMBER BACK WHEN MINNIE'S FOOD PANTRY WAS AT A DIFFERENT LOCATION AND THE CEILING HAD COLLAPSED DUE TO A RAIN LEAK.

AND HE JUMPED IN AND DONATED A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF MONEY FOR MINNIE'S FOOD PANTRY TO FIND A NEW LOCATION.

[10.1 Website Transition Update]

AND I WILL INVITE DR. SELENDA FREEMAN TO PLEASE INTRODUCE THE UPDATE.

THANK YOU, PRESIDENT HUMPHREY. I WOULD LOVE TO INVITE LESLIE RANGE-STANTON UP, WHO HAS DONE ALL KINDS OF WORK ON THIS WEBSITE.

TRANSITION TO GIVE US AN UPDATE TONIGHT. OKAY.

THANK YOU. AND STANDING UP HERE WITH ME IS LAN HARDY, WHO HAS DONE MORE THAN ALL KINDS OF WORK ON THIS WEBSITE TRANSITION.

SO AND SINCE SHE'S STANDING HERE, SHE'LL BE ABLE TO ANSWER QUESTIONS IF YOU HAVE ANY.

BUT I'LL GET YOUR HELP IN ADVANCING THE SLIDES AND CHIME IN IF I, IF I MESS ANYTHING UP.

BUT THANK YOU SO MUCH, DR. FREEMAN. AND GOOD EVENING TO YOU, PRESIDENT HUMPHREY, SUPERINTENDENT WILLIAMS, BOARD AND CABINET. WE ARE VERY EXCITED TO BRING BRING PROGRESS UPDATE ON OUR WEBSITE TRANSITION.

THIS IS A KEY COMPONENT OF OUR DISTRICT IMPROVEMENT PLAN.

UNDER PILLAR 4 SAFETY, WELLNESS AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT.

UNDER PRIORITY 4 OF THE DISTRICT IMPROVEMENT PLAN OUR OBJECTIVE IS TO ENGAGE THE COMMUNITY THROUGH TIMELY, CONSISTENT AND INNOVATIVE COMMUNICATION. THE GOAL FOR THIS STRATEGY IS THAT BY THE END OF THE 2024-25 SCHOOL YEAR, WE WILL EXPAND COMMUNICATION, BRAND RECOGNITION AND OUTREACH TO STAKEHOLDERS BY EXPANDING STAFF CAPACITY TO PARTICIPATE IN COORDINATED COMMUNICATION EFFORTS. AND OUR STRATEGY IS DEVELOP, PROVIDE TRAINING AND LAUNCH NEW COMPREHENSIVE DISTRICT AND CAMPUS WEBSITES. SO LOOKING AT OUR PERFORMANCE TARGETS FOR THIS PARTICULAR STRATEGY.

THOSE INCLUDE LAUNCHING ALL WEBSITES BY AUGUST 1ST, 2025.

AND TRAINING ALL IDENTIFIED DISTRICT STAFF ON THE NEW PLATFORM.

SO LET'S LOOK AT WHERE WE STARTED. WHY ARE WE HERE AND WHY ARE WE GETTING A NEW WEBSITE AT THIS TIME? THIS WORK BEGAN BACK IN SEPTEMBER OF 2022, WHEN WE WERE NOTIFIED THAT OUR CURRENT VENDOR, BLACKBOARD, HAD BEEN PURCHASED BY FINAL SITE AND THAT WE WOULD NEED TO CHANGE OUR WEBSITE PLATFORM.

IN 2023. A WEBSITE REVIEW COMMITTEE WAS FORMED TO ASSESS THE CURRENT WEBSITE AND ENVISION A FUTURE DIRECTION.

AFTER CAREFUL REVIEW, WE ISSUED AN RFP IN THE SPRING OF 2024 AND AT THAT TIME SELECTED THE NEW VENDOR, WHICH HAPPENED TO BE FINAL SITE. THE WEBSITE REVIEW COMMITTEE MEMBERS INCLUDE ARE LISTED HERE ON THE SCREEN.

WE JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU FOR THEIR HARD WORK.

THEY HELPED US REVIEW THE CURRENT WEBSITE AND PLANNED IMPROVEMENTS.

AND I'M GOING TO SAY A SPECIAL THANKS TO THE PERSON STANDING NEXT TO ME WHO DOES NOT LIKE TO BE IN THE SPOTLIGHT.

BUT LAN HARDY HAS BEEN DOING A GREAT JOB MANAGING THIS PROJECT.

LOOKING AT OUR WEBSITE TIMELINE FALL OF 2024, DURING THIS TIME AND CURRENTLY WE MAINTAIN OUR CURRENT WEBSITE WHILE WE HAVE BEGUN THE WORK ON THE NEW SITE.

SO IN SEPTEMBER, WE CONDUCTED A STAKEHOLDER SURVEY AND BEGAN OUR INITIAL DESIGN MEETINGS FOR THE DISTRICT SITE.

THIS INCLUDED FORMING A DISTRICT WEBSITE DESIGN COMMITTEE.

IN OCTOBER, ADMINISTRATIVE TRAINING FOR THE NEW SITE BEGAN, INCLUDING WEEKLY CHECK INS BETWEEN COMMUNICATION STAFF, MOSTLY LAN AND FINAL SITE. THOSE CHECK INS FOCUS ON TRAINING, DESIGN AND BEST PRACTICES.

SO CURRENTLY LAN IS THE MOST VERSED IN ALL YOU KNOW, WHAT'S REQUIRED IN UPDATING THE SITE.

SO I KEEP TELLING HER SHE CAN'T GO ANYWHERE. IN DECEMBER, MOST RECENTLY, WE FORMED A PRINCIPAL ADVISORY GROUP.

WE HAD SOME PRINCIPALS WHO VOLUNTEERED, WHO WANTED TO WORK ON SOME COMMUNICATIONS RELATED PROJECTS, AND WE PULLED THEM TOGETHER. AND SO THEY NOW HAVE BECOME OUR ADVISORY GROUP FOR THE CAMPUS WEBSITES.

BACK IN SEPTEMBER, I MENTIONED THAT WE DID THE STAKEHOLDER SURVEY.

AND SO SOME OF THOSE KEY FINDINGS DURING THAT SURVEY THAT WE KIND OF PULLED OUT WAS THAT USERS LET US KNOW THAT THEY PRIMARILY VISIT THE WEBSITE FOR THE ACADEMIC CALENDAR, SCHOOL EVENTS, NEWS AND STUDENT AND PARENT RESOURCES LIKE SKYWARD AND SCHOOL LINKS.

[00:55:06]

AND THEN USERS EXPRESSED WE ASKED THEM HOW THEY LIKE TO RECEIVE COMMUNICATION.

THEY EXPRESSED A STRONG PREFERENCE FOR EMAIL COMMUNICATION, BUT THERE WAS A LOT OF INTEREST IN TEXT MESSAGES AS WELL.

SO WE JUST THOUGHT THAT WAS INTERESTING TO KNOW AS WE BUILD OUR SITE AND THINK ABOUT MASS COMMUNICATIONS.

THIS NEXT SLIDE GIVES YOU A SWOT ANALYSIS OF THE STAKEHOLDER SURVEY.

I WON'T GO INTO ALL THE DETAIL IF YOU WANT TO DIG INTO THAT, IT'S THERE FOR YOUR PERUSAL.

BUT IT TELLS US PRETTY MUCH THE SAME INFORMATION THAT WE SUMMARIZED ON THAT PREVIOUS SLIDE.

SO OUR WEBSITE DESIGN REVIEW COMMITTEE MEMBERS, THEY'RE UP THERE ON THE SCREEN.

WE JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU TO THEM. THIS GROUP CAME TOGETHER AND THEY HELPED US DEVELOP THE SITE MAP FOR THE NEW SITE.

THEY HELPED DEVELOP THE DISTRICT HOMEPAGE, THE LOOK AND FEEL, AND THEY GAVE INPUT TO THE STYLE GUIDE FOR THE SITE.

AND THEN LOOKING AT THE WEBSITE TIMELINE, LOOKING AT RIGHT NOW, THE SPRING OF IS THAT THE CURRENT SPRING 2025? THIS IS WHERE WE ARE. SO THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT WE HAVE FINALIZED THE DISTRICT WEBSITE DESIGN AND AS WELL AS THE STYLE GUIDE. WORK HAS BEGUN NOW ON THE SCHOOL WEBSITE TEMPLATES AND THE MOBILE VIEWS.

WE GOT TO TAKE A LOOK AT THOSE TODAY IN OUR CHECK IN MEETING.

THE SCHOOL WEBSITE DESIGNS SHOULD BE COMPLETED BY THE BEGINNING OF APRIL, AT WHICH TIME WE WILL BEGIN MIGRATING OUR CURRENT SITE TO THE NEW PLATFORM.

LAN WANTED ME TO SAY ALL 30,000 PAGES PLUS PAGES OF THE WEBSITE WILL BE MIGRATED TO THE NEW PLATFORM.

DURING MIGRATION ALL WEBSITE UPDATES ARE GOING TO BE HANDLED THROUGH THE COMMUNICATIONS DEPARTMENT. WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO KIND OF FREEZE THINGS A LITTLE BIT, BUT WE KNOW THAT WORK MUST CONTINUE. IT WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE FOR CAMPUSES AND DEPARTMENTS TO MAINTAIN TWO SITES AT ONCE.

SO WE'RE GOING TO HELP THEM OUT WITH THAT. AND THEN SLIDE 11 IS NOT IN YOUR HANDOUT BECAUSE FRESH OFF THE PRESSES, WE WERE ABLE TO GET SOME ADDITIONAL INFORMATION IN OUR CHECK IN TODAY. SO THIS SLIDE TELLS YOU THAT WE ARE GOING TO FINALIZE AND LAUNCH THE NEW WEBSITE IN JUNE. AND WEBSITE TRAINING FOR DEPARTMENTS AND CAMPUS EDITORS WILL BEGIN IN JULY.

AND THAT TRAINING WILL BE ONGOING. OUR NEXT SLIDE WE MENTIONED EARLIER OUR PRINCIPAL DESIGN ADVISORY GROUP.

WE JUST WANTED TO GIVE THEM A LITTLE SHOUT OUT.

SO FAR THEY HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GIVE US SOME REALLY GREAT FEEDBACK WITH A FOCUS GROUP THAT WE CONDUCTED IN DECEMBER AND I'M SORRY. OKAY. ALL RIGHT. SO THE SO THE FEEDBACK, ONE OF THEIR FIRST TASKS WAS TO SERVE ON THE FOCUS GROUP AND THE INFORMATION THAT WE PICKED UP FROM THEM, WE LOOKED AT SOME CHALLENGES AND SOME SOME PRIORITIES.

SO SOME OF THE CHALLENGES THAT THEY MENTIONED WERE INFREQUENT UPDATES DUE TO LIMITED STAFF CAPACITY FOR THEIR WEBSITES, NAVIGATION ISSUES LIKE BROKEN LINKS AND OUTDATED INFORMATION, AND A LACK OF INTEGRATION WITH PLATFORMS LIKE GOOGLE CALENDAR.

SOME OF THE THINGS THAT THEY IDENTIFIED AS A PRIORITY FOR THEIR NEW SITES WOULD BE A CLEAN, MODERN LAYOUT WITH CONSISTENT BRANDING ACROSS ALL CAMPUSES.

MOBILE RESPONSIVE DESIGN THAT IMPROVES ACCESSIBILITY FOR ALL USERS, UP TO DATE CONTENT LIKE STAFF DIRECTORIES AND ANNOUNCEMENTS.

AND IN OUR CHECK IN TODAY, WE SAW SOME REALLY NEAT IDEAS FOR THE STAFF DIRECTORIES, WE'RE EXCITED ABOUT THAT.

AND ENHANCED FUNCTIONALITY SUCH AS BETTER SEARCH TOOLS AND PLATFORM INTEGRATION.

AND FINALLY, SO THAT THAT GIVES YOU SOME FEEDBACK FROM OUR PRINCIPAL FOCUS GROUP.

AND I THINK WE THINK WE WANT TO CONCLUDE THIS UPDATE WITH OUR WITH A SNEAK PEEK OF WHAT THE NEW SITE WILL LOOK LIKE.

SO, HERE WE GO.

[01:00:28]

BUT WHO'S COUNTING? BUT WHO'S COUNTING? YES. I HAVE A QUESTION.

YES, LAN. IS THERE A PARTICULAR FAVORITE PART OF THIS NEW WEBSITE DESIGN THAT YOU'RE THE MOST EXCITED ABOUT? I LIKE THE FACT THAT WE'RE WE'LL BE ABLE TO TELL OUR STORY THE WAY WE WANT TO TELL IT.

WE HAVE LOTS OF PLACES WHERE WE'LL BE ABLE TO HAVE VIDEOS, GRAPHICS.

IT IS GOING TO BE A LOT EASIER FOR EVERYBODY TO USE.

GREAT. AND I NOTICED IN THE TEST THAT THE LET'S TALK APP PIECE WAS THERE ON THE SIDE.

SO IT WILL NOT WILL THAT BE LIKE THAT OR H OW WILL IT GO? SO ONCE WE GET THE FINAL DESIGN, IT COULD BE BACK AT THE BOTTOM.

OKAY. IT WILL JUST DEPEND ON ONCE IT'S FINALIZED.

IT WAS KIND OF HARD TO PLACE IT ON THE MOCKUP.

GOT IT. OKAY. THANK YOU. APPRECIATE ALL OF YOUR TIME.

THANK YOU. SO YOUR COMMENT ON 34,000 PAGES NEEDING TO BE CHECKED HAD ME THINKING HAS THERE BEEN STUDENT INPUT IN THIS PROCESS, OR IS THERE MAYBE A ROLE FOR STUDENTS WHO ARE INTERESTED IN THIS TYPE OF THING TO HELP WITH SOME OF THAT QUALITY ASSURANCE PIECE ON THE BACK END? CURRENTLY, I'M WORKING WITH A STUDENT FROM ACADEMY HIGH SCHOOL AND THAT IS WHAT SHE'S DOING.

SHE'S GIVING ME HER INPUT ON THE ACADEMY'S WEBSITE.

SHE ACTUALLY HAS A PLAN FOR HOW TO MARKET ACADEMY BETTER THROUGH THE USE OF THEIR WEBSITE.

AND HOPEFULLY, IF SHE APPLIED FOR THE PLANO INTERN, MAYBE I CAN GET HER.

I GOT MY FINGERS CROSSED, BUT SHE'S A BIG HELP.

WE USUALLY EACH SUMMER WE HAVE AT LEAST ONE, MAYBE TWO INTERNS THAT HELP US OUT IN OUR DEPARTMENT.

AND THE WEBSITE IS ONE OF THE THINGS THAT THEY WORK ON.

WHAT HAPPENS TO ALL OF THE ARCHIVES? YOU KNOW, I'M SURE THERE'S A LOT OF STUFF ON THE CURRENT WEBSITE THAT MIGHT NOT FOLLOW INTO THE WEBSITE. WHERE DO YOU KEEP ALL OF THAT? ON OUR CURRENT WEBSITE, YOU WILL.

OKAY. OKAY. SO WE'RE NOT LOSING ANYTHING. SOME OF IT WE MAY LOSE.

BUT ANYTHING THAT WE'RE REQUIRED TO HAVE, WE WILL BRING OVER.

OKAY. WE STILL HAVE A SNAPSHOT OF OUR WEBSITE THAT WE BEFORE 2016.

SO THE PREVIOUS WEBSITE THAT WAS 14 YEARS OLD WHEN WE MIGRATED IN 2016.

THERE'S THERE'S IT'S SAVED. SO WE'RE ABLE TO SAVE IT DOWN TO A CERTAIN EXTENT.

AND THEN THE INTERNET ARCHIVE IS A REALLY GREAT RESOURCE, THE WAYBACK MACHINE.

I STILL USE THAT SOMETIMES TO GO BACK TO OUR OLD WEBSITE.

YEAH. OKAY. THAT'S A GOOD THING. ALL RIGHT. ANYONE ELSE HAVE A COMMENT OR QUESTION? NO. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU LADIES. THAT WAS A GREAT REPORT.

WE'RE ALL EXCITED TO SEE THE END RESULT. THANK YOU.

[10.2 Partners in Education (PIE) Update]

AND I WILL INVITE DR. THERESA WILLIAMS TO INTRODUCE THE UPDATE.

YEAH. SO WE'RE SO EXCITED TO BRING AN UPDATE ON OUR PARTNERS IN EDUCATION PROGRAM.

WE RELAUNCHED THIS PROGRAM TWO YEARS AGO, AND IT IS ALIVE AND THRIVING AND GROWING EACH AND EVERY DAY.

AND SO GRATEFUL FOR OUR OUR TEAM THAT'S BEING LED UNDER WITH OUR SENIOR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, SENIOR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, THAT IS A REALLY LONG TITLE.

I KNOW. BRITTNEA USSERY AND WE ALL AND ALSO MISS SHANNON PATTERSON, WHO IS OUR PARTNERS IN EDUCATION COORDINATOR.

THEY ARE BRINGING A PRESENTATION TO YOU TONIGHT, AND WE'LL HAVE SOME FACTS AND FIGURES AND STATS TO SHARE.

SO BRITTNEA, TAKE US AWAY. THANK YOU SO MUCH, DR.

WILLIAMS. AND THANK YOU, PRESIDENT HUMPHREY AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES. WE ARE EXCITED TO BE HERE TONIGHT TO GIVE YOU AN UPDATE ON THE PARTNERS IN EDUCATION PROGRAM, LOVINGLY REFERRED TO AS PIE, I'M SURE YOU ALL HAVE HEARD THAT.

SO, AS DR. WILLIAMS SAID, YOU KNOW, ABOUT TWO AND A HALF YEARS AGO, SHE ASKED FOR A PARTNERS IN EDUCATION COMMITTEE BE PULLED TOGETHER TO RELAUNCH THIS DISTRICT WIDE PROGRAM, SPECIFICALLY IN SUPPORT OF PILLAR FIVE, OUR STRATEGIC RESOURCE MANAGEMENT.

LAST YEAR, WE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO COME BEFORE YOU GUYS AND GIVE AN GIVE AN UPDATE THAT INCLUDED THE FRAMEWORK OF THE PROGRAM,

[01:05:06]

WE ALSO SHARED THE START OF A PRETTY HEAVY LIFT THAT INCLUDED SELECTING, BUILDING, AND ROLLING OUT A DISTRICT WIDE CRM SYSTEM.

SO A CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP MANAGEMENT SYSTEM TO ALL CAMPUSES, DEPARTMENTS AND THE FOUNDATION.

SO WE USE THAT TO TRACK AND MANAGE OUR PARTNERSHIPS.

SO TONIGHT WE'LL SHARE THE DETAILS OF THAT ROLLOUT AND TAKE A LOOK AT SOME OF THE DATA WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO CAPTURE SO FAR.

BUT I DO WANT TO TAKE A MINUTE TO THANK PATRICK AND HIS TEAM FOR HELPING US WITH OUR TECHNOLOGY NEEDS AROUND THIS PROJECT.

EVEN WITH ALL THE THINGS ON Y'ALL'S PLATE RIGHT NOW.

THEY SUPPORTED THIS EFFORT AND KEPT US ON TRACK AND ON TIME.

SO WE REALLY APPRECIATE THAT HELP AGAIN, ESPECIALLY AMONGST ALL THE THINGS YOU HAVE GOING ON.

SO EVEN THOUGH THE THOUGH THE SYSTEM ONLY LAUNCHED A FEW MONTHS AGO, WE'RE ALREADY SEEING THE POSITIVE OUTCOMES, WHICH INCLUDES STRONGER ALIGNMENT ON PARTNERSHIP RECRUITMENT AND FACILITATION, ALONG WITH THE SHARING OF BEST PRACTICES FOR RECOGNITION AND RETENTION OF THOSE PARTNERS.

SO BASICALLY, WE DON'T ALL OPERATE IN LITTLE SILOS ANYMORE, RIGHT? WE HAVE ONE UMBRELLA THAT ALL PARTNERSHIPS COME THROUGH, WHICH REALLY ALLOWS US TO BE BETTER ABOUT THANKING OUR PARTNERS AND ACCURATELY RECOGNIZING THEM FOR WHAT THEY'RE DOING RETAINING THAT CONTACT INFORMATION.

THOSE ARE ALL THINGS WE REALLY DIDN'T HAVE A GREAT MECHANISM FOR DOING BEFORE.

THE SYSTEM HAS ALSO ALLOWED US TO STREAMLINE THE PARTNERSHIP PROCESS BECAUSE THE SYSTEM INCLUDES AUTOMATION.

SO DEPENDING ON THE PARTNERSHIP LEVELS, CERTAIN THINGS AUTOMATICALLY HAPPEN WITHIN IT.

SO FOR INSTANCE, IF A PARTNERSHIP IS ENTERED OVER A CERTAIN DOLLAR AMOUNT, IT WILL AUTOMATICALLY CREATE A STANDARD PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT AND NOTIFIES OUR TEAM.

AND THEN SHANNON TAKES IT AND SHE AND SHE WORKS WITH THE CAMPUS OR DEPARTMENT WHO SUBMITTED IT, GETS IT FINISHED UP AND APPROVED.

WE AUTOMATICALLY A NOTIFICATION GOES TO FINANCE FOR APPROVAL OF THAT DONATION.

AND ALSO COMMUNICATIONS WILL GET A NOTIFICATION IF THERE'S ANY RECOGNITION REQUIREMENTS TO COMPLETE AROUND THAT PARTNERSHIP, SO SOCIAL MEDIA POSTS, WEBSITE, THINGS LIKE THAT.

IT'S REALLY INCREASED OUR ABILITY TO FACILITATE PARTNERSHIPS AT A HIGHER LEVEL, HOPEFULLY LEADING TO A GREATER RETENTION RATE.

SO AFTER THIS YEAR, WE'LL HAVE THAT BASELINE OF DATA THAT WE CAN THEN COMPARE YEAR AFTER YEAR.

IS OUR RETENTION RATE GOING UP. IS IT GOING DOWN.

WHAT ARE OUR NEW PARTNERSHIP PERCENTAGES LOOK LIKE.

WE'LL ACTUALLY HAVE DATA TO KNOW RIGHT WHERE IS THAT GOING AND WHAT IS THE VALUE OF ALL THESE PARTNERSHIPS THAT WE HAVE, WHETHER IT'S MONETARY DONATIONS, VOLUNTEERS, IN-KIND, ALL THE THINGS.

RIGHT. SO WE'RE REALLY EXCITED TO SEE WHAT THAT DATA LOOKS LIKE AS WE GO.

SO TO SHARE MORE ABOUT THE CRM SYSTEM ROLLOUT, I'D LIKE TO INTRODUCE MY COORDINATOR, SHANNON PATTERSON.

LIKE BRITTNEA SAID, THANK YOU FOR HAVING US. WE ARE EXCITED TO GIVE YOU AN UPDATE ON THE PIE PROGRAM.

THE PARTNERS IN EDUCATION PIE PROGRAM UPHOLDS THE DISTRICT'S BELIEF IN A SHARED RESPONSIBILITY FOR EDUCATING CHILDREN BY FOSTERING COLLABORATION BETWEEN FAMILIES, STAFF, STUDENTS AND OUR COMMUNITY. THIS PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN THE DISTRICT AND FOUNDATION ENHANCES EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES, FOSTERS STAKEHOLDER COLLABORATION, RAISES AWARENESS OF OPPORTUNITIES, PROMOTES COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT, AND EVALUATES PARTNERSHIP EFFECTIVENESS. I WANT TO GO AHEAD AND SHARE SOME MILESTONES WITH YOU.

IN THE FALL OF 2023, THE PARTNERS IN EDUCATION COMMITTEE WAS FORMED, A PIE COORDINATOR WAS HIRED, YAY, AND TOGETHER WE WORKED TO SELECT SALESFORCE AS THE CRM OF CHOICE AFTER GOING OUT FOR AN RFP AND IT IS SUPPORTED, THE IMPLEMENTATION WAS SUPPORTED BY ELEVATION SOLUTIONS.

IN THE SPRING OF 2024, WE FOCUSED INTENSIVELY ON DEVELOPING PROCESSES THAT ENABLED US TO CAPTURE DATA EFFECTIVELY WHILE FOSTERING A CLEAR UNDERSTANDING OF PARTNERSHIP BENEFITS AND HOW WE COULD BE VALUABLE TO OUR PARTNERS IN RETURN.

IN THE FALL OF 2024, IT TRULY BROUGHT THE PROCESS TO LIFE.

WITH IMPLEMENTATION OF SALESFORCE, WE'VE GAINED A DEEPER INSIGHT INTO THE PARTNERSHIPS WITHIN PLANO ISD.

THERE WERE SO MANY THINGS THAT WE WERE NOT EVEN AWARE OF THAT WERE HAPPENING, SO IT'S BEEN EXCITING TO SEE THOSE COME FORTH.

WE FOCUSED ON FUNDAMENTAL SALESFORCE DATA ENTRY AND COLLECTION WHILE REINFORCING THE PARTNERS IN EDUCATION PROGRAM.

WELL, HERE WE ARE IN THE SPRING, JUST OVER A YEAR LATER, FROM THE LAST TIME THAT WE SPOKE TO YOU, AND WE'VE TRANSITIONED TO IN-DEPTH TRAINING SESSIONS THAT EXTEND BEYOND SIMPLE GIFT ENTRY AND EMPHASIZE PARTNER ENTRY, REPORTING, AND COMMUNICATIONS FEATURES. ADDITIONALLY, WE'VE IMPLEMENTED AN ADD ON CALLED FORMASSEMBLY,

[01:10:03]

WE LOOK FORWARD TO UTILIZING THIS THIS FEATURE IN OTHER AREAS, INCLUDING OUR PARTNERS IN EDUCATION LUNCHEON INVITATIONS.

SO LOOKING AT THAT ROLLOUT THE INITIAL PHASE BEGAN IN THE FALL AND FOCUSED ON BUILDING THAT STRONG FOUNDATIONAL, FOUNDATIONAL KNOWLEDGE OF WHAT THE PARTNERS IN EDUCATION PROGRAM WAS AND THE DIFFERENT TYPE OF GIFTS THAT EXIST.

A LOT OF TIMES OUR WE FOUND THAT PEOPLE WERE VERY AWARE THAT A GIFT COULD BE MONETARY, BUT DIDN'T NECESSARILY THINK OF THOSE IN-KIND OR TIME AND EXPERTISE THINGS AS THINGS THAT SHOULD BE REPORTED AND THE VALUE THAT THOSE HOLD.

WE PRESENTED A TOTAL OF 37 TIMES OVER THE SUMMER AND INTO THE FALL, MAKING SURE THAT WE WERE REACHING DEPARTMENTS, CAMPUSES, ADMINISTRATORS, OFFICE MANAGERS, JUST EVERYONE WHO MIGHT HAVE A ROLE IN COMING ACROSS A PARTNER OR A PARTNERSHIP.

WE CREATED A SLIDE DECK WHERE ALL OF THIS INFORMATION IS HOUSED IN ONE SITE.

IT HAS ALL OF THE INFORMATION ON THE PARTNERS IN EDUCATION PROGRAM IS THE DEFINITIONS OF TERMINOLOGY, IT'S SALESFORCE CLICK SHEETS, EVERYTHING IS IN ONE CENTRAL LOCATION, SO PEOPLE AREN'T HAVING TO HUNT DOWN INFORMATION.

WE ARE CURRENTLY IN PHASE TWO WHERE THE FOCUS IS ON CONTINUED LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES, NOT ONLY FOR THE PIE PROGRAM, BUT FOR A DEEPER UNDERSTANDING OF HOW SALESFORCE CAN BE UTILIZED.

PERSONALIZED TRAINING TO ADDRESS ADDRESS SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS AND GOALS OF INDIVIDUAL CAMPUSES AND DEPARTMENTS HAS BEEN CREATED.

FOR EXAMPLE, WHAT STUDENT, FAMILY, AND COMMUNITY SERVICES NEEDS IS GOING TO BE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT THAN WHAT OUR CTE REPRESENTATIVES NEED.

SO WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE ALIGNING AND MAKING SURE THAT THE PROGRAM IS EFFECTIVE FOR EACH OF OUR DEPARTMENTS.

WE ALSO WANT TO TAKE A MOMENT TO DELVE DEEPER INTO THE DATA FROM SALESFORCE.

THE DATA THAT'S GOING IN RIGHT NOW IS THE DATA THAT'S GOING TO BE USED TO CREATE THOSE PIE LUNCHEON INVITATIONS.

LAST YEAR, THAT INFORMATION WAS SILOED ACROSS THE DISTRICT, SO WE WERE HUNTING DOWN PARTNERS AND PARTNERSHIPS AND INFORMATION FOR MONTHS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAD HAD EVERYBODY IN THE SYSTEM. THIS YEAR, SINCE WE ARE UTILIZING THIS SYSTEM AND PEOPLE ARE PUTTING IT IN, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A MUCH GREATER IDEA AND FEEL CONFIDENT IN WHO WE'RE RECOGNIZING AND AT WHAT LEVEL.

WITH EACH PHASE, WE'RE MAKING SURE THAT WE GET FEEDBACK FROM THOSE THAT WE ARE SPEAKING WITH, WHETHER IT'S CAMPUSES, WHETHER IT'S OFFICE MANAGERS DEPARTMENTS, ETC.

AGAIN, MAKING SURE THAT THE PROGRAM ALIGNS WITH THE NEEDS OF THE PARTICULAR CAMPUS OR DEPARTMENT.

I SKIPPED RIGHT OVER PHASE TWO, BUT SPOKE THROUGH IT.

I WANTED TO SHARE WITH YOU SOME NUMBERS. I THINK NUMBERS ARE ALWAYS FUN.

WE HAVE 86 SALESFORCE USERS ACROSS OUR SECONDARY CAMPUSES AND DEPARTMENTS.

OUR ELEMENTARY CAMPUSES WERE ABLE TO REQUEST A LICENSE, BUT THEY WERE NOT REQUIRED TO HAVE ONE.

THAT'S MAINLY BECAUSE PARTNERSHIPS THAT ARE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL ARE TYPICALLY JUST A LITTLE BIT NOT QUITE AS ROBUST, AND THEY'RE EASIER TO MANAGE. WE DO OFFER CAMPUSES OR DEPARTMENTS THAT AREN'T USING AN ACTUAL LICENSE THAT FORM ASSEMBLY FORM.

WE HAVE ONE THAT IS OPEN FOR THEM TO GO AND ENTER THEIR GIFTS.

THEY'RE ABLE TO ENTER THEIR GIFTS, AND WHEN THEY'RE ON THAT FORM, IT'S AUTOMATICALLY SEARCHING FOR THE PARTNER INFORMATION SO THEY'RE NOT HAVING TO REENTER IT. SINCE NOVEMBER, WE'VE RECEIVED 500 NOVEMBER 1ST IS WHEN WE WENT FULL ON LIVE.

SINCE THEN, WE'VE RECEIVED 507 GIFT ENTRY SUBMISSIONS, WITH 61 OF THOSE BEING IN-KIND DONATIONS.

WE'RE ESPECIALLY PROUD OF THAT, BECAUSE THAT SEEMED TO BE SOMETHING THAT WAS MAYBE NOT TRACKED AS WELL IN THE PAST, SO WE WERE EXCITED TO SEE 61. O F THOSE WE HAVE 91 PARTNERS AS OF JANUARY 28TH CONTRIBUTING $5,000 AND ABOVE. I'M EXCITED TO SAY THAT AS OF TODAY, WE ARE AT 100 OR JUST OVER 100.

LAST YEAR WE HAD 123 PARTNERS FOR THE ENTIRE YEAR.

SO IF THAT KIND OF GIVES YOU AN IDEA, I THINK WE'RE ON TRACK TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE EVEN MORE PARTNERS.

THIS FISCAL YEAR, WE'VE REPORTED AN IMPRESSIVE $1.4 MILLION IN GIFTS WHILE WORKING CLOSELY TOGETHER WITH THE DISTRICT AND THE FOUNDATION.

AS WE REACH THIS KIND OF HALFWAY POINT BEFORE WE HIT THE END OF THE YEAR.

ADDITIONALLY, WE'VE OFFERED 39 TRAINING SESSIONS SINCE JUNE OF 2024, AND TODAY MARKED OUR 41ST SESSION.

MOVING TO TRENDS THAT WE'RE SEEING. WE'VE SEEN AN INCREASE IN THE NUMBER OF TRACKED GIFTS AS OF JANUARY 21ST WE'VE HAD MORE THAN 200 SUBMISSIONS FROM OVER 50 CAMPUSES, AND DEPARTMENTS HAVE BEEN LOGGED IN SALESFORCE.

SO THAT'S KIND OF ALL THOSE ENTRIES ARE BEING SPREAD OUT.

WE'RE SEEING ENTRIES FROM A WIDE VARIETY OF CAMPUSES AND DEPARTMENTS.

[01:15:05]

IT COULD COME IN THE FORM OF EQUIPMENT FOR THE CTE CENTER.

IT CAN COME IN MANY DIFFERENT WAYS. SO WE'VE BEEN VERY INTENTIONAL ABOUT MAKING SURE THAT WE GIVE LOTS OF EXAMPLES ON WHAT A PARTNERSHIP LOOKS LIKE.

WE FEEL LIKE THIS ENHANCED REPORTING WILL KIND OF CLARIFY THE SUPPORT THAT OUR PARTNERS ARE GIVING AND ALLOW US TO BEST UTILIZE THEM.

UTILIZATION. WE'RE MANAGING OUR PARTNERS BY UTILIZING SALESFORCE AS OUR CENTRAL REPOSITORY.

LIKE I SAID PREVIOUSLY, WE WERE IN SILOS. THIS HAS HELPED SUBSTANTIALLY FOR US TO HAVE EVERYTHING HOUSED IN ONE PLACE.

IT JUST STREAMLINED STREAMLINES THE ACCESS AND THE DATA MANAGEMENT.

AS THIS GROWS, THE REPORTING CAPABILITIES THAT BRITTNEA MENTIONED ARE GOING TO BE SO INSTRUMENTAL IN NOT ONLY BEING ABLE TO REPORT BACK TO YOU WHAT'S GOING ON IN THE PARTNERS IN EDUCATION PROGRAM. BUT FOR OUR CAMPUSES TO SEE WHAT THEIR WORK IS DOING AS WELL.

WE DID WANT TO TOUCH ON SOME OF THE CHALLENGES.

WE FACED SOME INITIAL RELUCTANCE IN TRANSITIONING TO A NEW PROCESS AND SYSTEM.

OF COURSE, WITH SO MANY OTHER CHANGES GOING ON, IT WAS DEFINITELY SOMETHING THAT WE HAD TO OVERCOME.

WE TACKLED THAT THROUGH SOME ADDITIONAL TRAINING, SOME PRESENTATIONS, AND THEN OF COURSE, SOME INDIVIDUAL SESSIONS.

AFTER IMPLEMENTING SALESFORCE, WE OPTIMIZED WORKFLOW FOR BETTER EFFICIENCY AND CLARITY REGARDING THE PARTNERS IN EDUCATION PROGRAM AND ITS PURPOSE AND CONTRIBUTIONS.

AND THEN TO BRIDGE ANY TRAINING GAPS THAT WE MAY HAVE HAD, WE ADOPTED KIND OF A SUPPORTIVE APPROACH.

SO OUR STRONGER USERS, WE PARTNERED WITH SOME OF OUR USERS THAT NEEDED A LITTLE MORE ASSISTANCE.

AND THAT SEEMED TO FOSTER NOT ONLY TEAMWORK, BUT IT ALSO HELPED WITH AN OVERALL UNDERSTANDING.

SOME OF THE KEY BENEFITS ARE WE ARE UTILIZING SALESFORCE TO ENHANCE THOSE PARTNERSHIPS, AND WE ARE ALSO ENSURING THAT PARTNER RECOGNITION IS GOING ON AND BEING COMMUNICATED APPROPRIATELY, APPROPRIATELY.

WE ALSO WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU'RE AWARE THAT OUR PARTNERS IN EDUCATION LUNCHEON, WHICH CELEBRATES OUR PARTNERS AND RECOGNIZES THEIR INVALUABLE CONTRIBUTIONS AT THE SUPPORTER LEVEL AND ABOVE, WILL TAKE PLACE ON WEDNESDAY, MAY 14TH AT THE ROBINSON FINE ARTS CENTER.

I MENTIONED PREVIOUSLY THAT THOSE INVITATIONS TO THAT EVENT WILL BE GENERATED FROM SALESFORCE.

SO WE ARE BEING EXTRA INTENTIONAL RIGHT NOW ABOUT MAKING SURE THAT OUR CAMPUSES AND DEPARTMENTS ARE GETTING THOSE IN AND WORKING ONE ON ONE WITH CAMPUSES AND DEPARTMENTS THAT MAY NEED A LITTLE MORE ASSISTANCE. WITH THAT BEING SAID, I THINK THAT'S ALL.

I APPRECIATE YOUR TIME. DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? I DO. I MEAN, THIS WAS ALL HIGHLY TECHNICAL, WHICH, YOU KNOW, I'M INTO.

SO GREAT. BUT CAN YOU GIVE US SOME EXAMPLES OF, LIKE, WHAT IS THIS DOING FOR THE KIDS? RIGHT. LIKE, I WAS LOOKING AT THIS PRESENTATION IN PACKET REVIEW THIS WEEK AND I WAS LIKE, THIS IS GREAT FOR COMPLIANCE. BUT LIKE, HOW ARE THE KIDS REALLY BENEFITING FROM FROM SOME OF THESE UPGRADES THAT Y'ALL ARE DOING? SO THIS IS BRINGING IN MORE OPPORTUNITIES AND EXPERIENCES FOR THEM, WHETHER IT'S, AGAIN, LIKE A LARGER COMPANY LIKE TOYOTA COMING IN AND COMMITTING SOME EQUIPMENT TO THE CTE CENTER, OR IT CAN TRICKLE DOWN LIKE TO THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL LEVEL WHERE WE HAVE VOLUNTEERS THAT ARE COMING IN.

LAST YEAR THEY CAME IN TO SIGLAR ELEMENTARY AND THEY PUT A LEARNING GARDEN IN WITH THE HELP OF OTHER COMMUNITY MEMBERS AND OTHER BUSINESS ORGANIZATIONS.

SO THERE'S A LOT OF THAT GOING ON, THAT AND THAT'S HOW IT WOULD TRICKLE DOWN TO STUDENTS.

WELL, AND NOT TO MENTION THE FUNDS THEY RAISE FOR FIFTH GRADE CAMP AND ALL THE AVID.

YEAH. THE WHAT AM I TRYING TO SAY? THE GRANTS TO EDUCATORS, ALL OF THAT GOOD STUFF DOES TRICKLE DOWN TO THE CLASSROOM.

I THINK REALLY THE BIGGEST THING IS WE KNOW IT IS IT'S GOOD FOR KIDS TO HAVE PARTICULARLY DEPENDING ON IF IT'S LIKE A CTE CLASS OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, EVEN IF IT'S NOT HAVING INDUSTRY PROFESSIONALS COME IN, RIGHT, OR MENTORS COME IN, THINGS LIKE THAT, BECAUSE NOW WE KNOW ABOUT ALL OF THESE PEOPLE WHO ARE DOING THESE THINGS AND WE CAN CELEBRATE THEM.

WE FEEL LIKE OUR RETENTION RATE OF THOSE THINGS WILL BE HIGHER.

AND THEN HOPEFULLY WE'RE BRINGING IN MORE NEW PEOPLE BECAUSE THEY'RE SEEING IT RIGHT. IT'S VISIBLE. WE'RE THANKING THE PEOPLE WHO ARE COMING IN AND DOING THOSE THINGS, GIVING A DONATION OR GIVING THEIR TIME. HOPEFULLY THAT FOSTERS MORE OF IT, RIGHT?

[01:20:01]

I WOULD JUST ADD INVESTING IN A CRM SYSTEM IS USUALLY SOMETHING THAT PEOPLE DO NOT DO UNTIL LATE IN THE GAME ON THINGS, AND IT CAN BE CERTAINLY A GAME CHANGER, AND IT IS EASY TO GET SOMEONE IN THE DOOR.

IT IS HARD TO MAINTAIN THAT RELATIONSHIP AND KEEP THEM OVER TIME.

BUT THE RESEARCH IS VERY CLEAR THAT IF YOU CAN KEEP THEM AND KEEP THEM OVER TIME AND RECOGNITION OR JUST SIMPLY GRATITUDE, I MEAN, IT'S GREAT TO HAVE THE PIE EVENT AND ALL THAT STUFF.

BUT JUST TO BE ABLE TO PEOPLE JUST WANT TO THANK YOU.

THEY WANT TO BE ACKNOWLEDGED THAT SOMETHING THEY'VE DONE HAS BEEN NOTICED.

BUT KEEPING THEM IS REALLY DIFFICULT. AND YOU HAVE TO HAVE A TOOL LIKE THIS TO BE ABLE TO HAVE IT, BUT TO DIG INTO IT, TO USE IT. YOU SPOKE MY LOVE LANGUAGE, YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT REPORTS AND HOW YOU'RE GOING TO PULL, HOW YOU'RE GOING TO PULL REPORTS. AND, YOU KNOW, HOW DO YOU PULL THE REPORTS TO THE PEOPLE THAT THEY'VE BEEN DOING THIS FOR ONE YEAR? THIS ONE HAS BEEN DOING IT FOR TWO YEARS. FOR US TO BE ABLE TO HAVE A LONGEVITY PIECE, TO SAY TO SOMEONE ON THE LINE, THANK YOU. WE WE HAVE WE KNOW WE HAVE PARTNERS THAT HAVE BEEN WITH US FOR MANY YEARS, BUT WE KEPT THAT DATA.

WE CAN GUESS, WE CAN LOOK BACK. BUT HAVING THAT AND BEING ABLE TO CELEBRATE THAT IS IS HUGE.

AND AS FAR AS HOW IT HELPS KIDS, IT JUST GROWS OUR CAPACITY AS A DISTRICT TO LEVERAGE OUR COMMUNITY IN GREATER WAYS FOR FOR OUR STUDENTS AND FOR OUR TEACHERS.

AT A TIME WHEN WE REALLY DO NEED TO MAXIMIZE ALL OF OUR RESOURCES.

SO THIS IS GREAT WORK, AND I GREATLY APPRECIATE IT.

AND I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING ALL THE GREATNESS THAT WILL COME FROM THIS. YEAH, WELL, WHILE I HAVE A PLATFORM, I DO WANT TO PUBLICLY THANK SHANNON. SHE HAS WORKED I THINK IT'S APPARENT SHE WORKED VERY, VERY HARD ON THIS. AND WHEN SHE SAYS SHE'S DONE ALL, YOU KNOW, WHATEVER 39 TRAINING OPPORTUNITIES, I DON'T KNOW THAT THAT INCLUDES THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO SHE WENT TO THEIR DESK AND SAT WITH THEM AT THEIR DESK, AT THEIR COMPUTER AND HELPED THEM DO IT BECAUSE THEY WERE FEELING OVERWHELMED. AND SHE DIDN'T WANT THEM TO FEEL THAT WAY. SO SHE DROVE TO THEM AND SAT WITH THEM AND WALKED THEM THROUGH IT. SO I APPRECIATE HER HARD WORK ON THIS.

SO I KNOW WITH SALESFORCE, USUALLY YOU HAVE TO PAY LICENSE FEES FOR EACH OF YOUR USERS, RIGHT? SO DO WHAT DO YOU KNOW IN OUR CONTRACT WHAT THAT IS, IS IT LIKE A CERTAIN NUMBER OR ARE WE LIKE UP TO 100 OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT? SO WE DID CONTRACT FOR A CERTAIN NUMBER AND TO AND THEN AS SHANNON WAS TALKING ABOUT, WE UTILIZE THE FORM ASSEMBLY PRODUCT FOR THE CAMPUSES WHO MAYBE DIDN'T FEEL LIKE THEY WERE READY FOR ALL THE THINGS SALESFORCE OFFERS BECAUSE IT'S A LOT.

IT CAN DO A LOT IN THERE. IF THEY FELT LIKE, OKAY, I'M GOING TO BE DOING GOOD TO GET MY GET MY INFORMATION IN AND SUBMITTED.

THEY'RE UTILIZING FORM ASSEMBLY SO WE DON'T HAVE TO USE A LICENSE FOR THEM.

AND WE CAN SAVE THOSE FOR THE CAMPUSES WHO ARE READY TO, TO GO ALL IN.

USE IT MORE ROBUSTLY. YEAH, YEAH, YEAH. IS THERE A WAY TO MAYBE LOOK TO SEE AS THE PROGRAM EXPANDS? I MEAN, IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU'RE ALREADY WATCHING THIS THOUGH, IS WHO'S USING IT HOW ROBUSTLY AND JUST MAKING SURE WE MANAGE THAT LICENSE FEE.

YES. EACH WEEK I'VE BEEN RUNNING A USER REPORT SO I CAN KIND OF SEE I CAN SEE IF THEY'RE STUCK ON A PAGE, OR I CAN SEE IF THEY'RE PROCESSING THEM THROUGH QUICKLY. AND THAT HELPS ME IDENTIFY WHO I MIGHT NEED TO REACH OUT TO. OH, THAT'S SO SMART. BECAUSE AND SAME WITH THE I WAS GOING TO SAY KUDOS ON THE FORM ASSEMBLY. THAT'S A GREAT IDEA BECAUSE IT'S BEEN GREAT.

YEAH, WE UTILIZED IT. WE'VE UTILIZED IT FOR SEVERAL THINGS AND HAVE OTHER PLANS FOR IT AS WELL.

I ALSO FAILED TO MENTION THAT EACH OF YOUR PLACES, THERE'S A LITTLE PACKET AND IT'S KIND OF SOME PARTNERS IN EDUCATION COLLATERAL IN THERE.

YOU'LL SEE OUR FUN STICKERS THAT WE HAVE THAT SAY, I SUPPORT PLANO ISD.

SO YOU CAN PUT THOSE ON YOUR LAPTOP, YOUR CUPS WHEREVER.

AND THERE'S SOME ADDITIONAL INFORMATION IN THERE AS WELL THAT WE JUST WANTED TO SHARE THAT WE USE TO PROMOTE THE PROGRAM WHEN WE ARE OUT IN THE COMMUNITY.

THANK YOU TO LESLEY'S TEAM FOR THE STICKERS. THEY DID THIS FOR US.

YES. THANK YOU GUYS. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. THAT WAS AN AMAZING REPORT.

AND Y'ALL ARE DOING GREAT THINGS FOR THE KIDS IN PLANO IN YOUR NONPROFIT.

THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. WE WILL MOVE ON TO ITEM 10.3 OF OUR REPORTS, WHICH IS THE 2022 BOND PROGRAM UPDATE.

[10.3 2022 Bond Program Update]

THANK YOU, PRESIDENT HUMPHREY, SUPERINTENDENT WILLIAMS, MEMBERS OF THE BOARD AND CABINET.

I'M GOING TO ASK MR. TONY PEARSON TO COME UP TO THE FRONT.

WE ARE, BELIEVE IT OR NOT, WE'RE A THIRD OF THE WAY THROUGH OUR BOND PROGRAM.

SORRY TO BELIEVE THAT, BUT WE ARE REALLY CLICKING ON ALL CYLINDERS.

WE HAVE GONE THROUGH AND WE HAVE ONE MORE, WHAT WE CALL OUR MARQUEE OR LARGE PROGRAMS THAT WE'RE GOING TO HAVE UNDER GMP GUARANTEED MAXIMUM PRICE THAT WILL COME OUT IN MARCH, AND THEN WE'LL HAVE ALL OF OUR MAJOR PROJECTS THAT ARE UNDER CONSTRUCTION.

AND SO HE'S BEEN GRACIOUS ENOUGH TO ACTUALLY EVERY QUARTER COME AND GIVE US AN UPDATE.

AND SO THIS IS HIS QUARTERLY UPDATE. SO I'M GONNA TURN IT OVER TO MR. PEARSON. THANK YOU JOHNNY. GOOD EVENING. THANK YOU BOARD PRESIDENT HUMPHREY, SUPERINTENDENT DR.

WILLIAMS AND BOARD MEMBERS. I WANTED TO ALSO THANK YOU LAN RIGHT FROM THE BEGINNING FOR HELPING WITH THE WITH OUR BOND REPORT AND GETTING IT UPDATED ON OUR OUR WEBSITE AS WELL.

[01:25:08]

LET'S SEE. SO OUR LAST BOND PROGRAM UPDATE WAS NOVEMBER 6TH.

SO OUR PRESENTATION TONIGHT WILL HIGHLIGHT WHAT HAS OCCURRED SINCE THEN AND WHAT IS WHAT IS CLOSE ON THE HORIZON.

SO THE FIVE PHASES. WE'RE STILL TRACKING ON THOSE FIVE PHASES DESIGNATED HERE.

WE ARE WELL INTO PHASE ONE AND TWO, AS INDICATED BY OUR TIMELINE BAR LOCATED HERE.

AND WE'RE IN THE EARLY STAGES OF ROLLING OUT PHASE THREE.

AS USUAL, THE PROJECT PHASING SCHEDULE NOTED IS FOR GENERAL PLANNING PURPOSES AND MAY BE ADJUSTED AS PROGRAMING NEEDS WARRANT.

PHASE ONE. SINCE NOVEMBER FOUR MORE PROJECTS TURNED GREEN AND BECAME SUBSTANTIALLY COMPLETE, COMPLETE OVER WINTER BREAK. THOSE ARE MENDENHALL EC TWO, THE HARRINGTON ELEMENTARY SCHOOL HVAC, BEVERLEY ELEMENTARY SCHOOL HVAC, AND ANDREWS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL HVAC.

FIVE PROJECTS WENT FROM BIDDING AND NEGOTIATION TO BEING BOARD APPROVED CONTRACTS PREPARING FOR CONSTRUCTION, AND THOSE INCLUDE CLARK HIGH SCHOOL STRUCTURAL REPAIR, THE CTE CENTER, PLANO WEST, PLANO EAST, AND VINES HIGH SCHOOL. HAGGARD AND PLANO SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL ARE NOTED HERE AS BEING IN DESIGN, AND THAT IS INCORRECT. I SHOULD HAVE LABELED THOSE AS IN BIDDING AND NEGOTIATION ON THIS SLIDE IS HAGGARD'S GMP WAS ON THE BOARD APPROVED BY CONSENT AGENDA TONIGHT AND PLANO SENIORS GMP IS ON TRACK TO BE ON THE MARCH BOARD FOR APPROVAL.

PHASE TWO ONE LITTLE GREEN TAG ON THERE CHECK MARK IS THE SYSTEMS AND COMPLIANCE.

WE HAVE FACILITIES WAS ABLE TO COMPLETE THAT WAS BILL COUSINS WAS ABLE TO COMPLETE THAT AND INSTALL TWO DOMESTIC WATER HEATERS.

MEANWHILE, FIVE MORE SYSTEMS AND COMPLIANCE PROJECTS WERE APPROVED BY THE BOARD, ALLOWING CONTRACTS TO BE WRITTEN SO THAT WHOLE ENTIRE SYSTEMS, SYSTEMS AND COMPLIANCE CATEGORY THERE WERE ALL ARE, WE'VE ALL CONTRACTED AND ARE AIMING TOWARDS SUMMER 2025 COMPLETION.

WE'VE GOT NINE MORE PLAYGROUNDS CURRENTLY THAT BEGAN CONSTRUCTION IN NOVEMBER.

WE'RE ALSO WE'RE SCHEDULED TO COMPLETE THOSE BY SUMMER OF 2025 WHEN SCHOOL BEGINS.

WE'VE GOT TWO OF THE THREE TRACKS THAT HAVE BEGUN.

MURPHY AND HENDRICK ARE GEARED TOWARDS SUMMER 2025 COMPLETION.

FRANKFORD IS READY BUT CURRENTLY GOING THROUGH THE CITY OF DALLAS PERMIT PROCESS.

PHASES THREE, FOUR AND FIVE, THESE HAVE NOT CHANGED FROM LAST TIME AND ON THE NEXT UPDATE, I'LL HAVE A SLIDE IDENTIFIED AND DETAILING OUT THE PHASE THREE PROJECTS. SO PROJECT UPDATES; THE JUPITER CENTER RENOVATION, THE PROJECT IS SUBSTANTIALLY COMPLETE, AND STAFF MOVED IN JUNE OF 2024.

A CHANGE ORDER WAS APPROVED AT THE SEPTEMBER BOARD TO ADD FUNDS TO REPLACE THE CHEWED UP PARKING LOT.

YOU CAN KIND OF SEE IN THESE PICTURES RIGHT HERE. THE CONTRACTOR STARTED LAYING NEW ASPHALT A WEEK AGO.

YOU CAN KIND OF START TO SEE THEM GETTING BUSY RIGHT HERE. ONCE COMPLETE WITH THE NEW ASPHALT FRONT PARKING LOT, THEY WILL INSTALL THE FENCING, WHICH WILL HELP PROVIDE A YARD TO PROTECT SOME OF THEIR VEHICLES.

AND THEN THEY'LL COMPLETE THE LANDSCAPING AND THE PROJECT WILL BE COMPLETE.

ISAAC'S EARLY CHILDHOOD SCHOOL, ISAAC'S, IS ADDING 8,400FT², WHICH INCLUDES EXPANDING THE EXISTING ACTIVITY ROOM TO THE WEST AND PROVIDING A NEW KITCHEN AND DINING ROOM TO THE EAST. SO PIERS ARE COMPLETE ON THE KITCHEN AND DINING ROOM ADDITION THAT'S LOCATED HERE IN THE LOWER LEFT.

THEY'RE STARTING TO FORM THE GRAY BEAMS. WE RAN INTO A LITTLE BIT OF GROUNDWATER ON THE ACTIVITY ROOM SIDE, WHICH IS IN THE UPPER LEFT. SO CASING WE'RE HAVING TO CASE THE PIERS.

SO THAT'S A LITTLE BIT SLOWER PROCESS. WE'RE CASING THE PIERS IS THAT YOU KNOW WE'RE INSTALLING A TEMPORARY, SOMETIMES PERMANENT CYLINDRICAL STEEL TUBE DOWN IN THE PIER HOLE TO KIND OF STABILIZE THE SOIL SURROUNDING IT.

SO IT'S LIKE A SLEEVE, A PROTECTIVE SLEEVE THAT PREVENTS THE HOLE FROM COLLAPSING.

WE'LL POUR THE CONCRETE AND DEPENDING ON WHETHER OR NOT IT'S A TEMPORARY CASING OR A PERMANENT CASE IN THE SLEEVE WILL BE PULLED OR IT'LL STAY IN PLACE.

BUT IT JUST IT'S A LITTLE BIT MORE OF A TIME TIME CRUNCH THERE.

BUT WE'RE STILL ON SCHEDULE TO COMPLETE MARCH 2026.

PEARSON EARLY CHILD SCHOOL, PEARSON IS ADDING 5,600FT², WHICH INCLUDES EXPANDING THE EXISTING KITCHEN TO THE SOUTH AND ADDING A NEW ACTIVITY ROOM TO THE NORTH. THE EXISTING ACTIVITY ROOM WILL BE RENOVATED TO DINING.

UPPER LEFT IS THE NEW ACTIVITY ROOM FOUNDATION.

PIERS ARE COMPLETE. THIS IS THE GRADE FORM WORK THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THESE GRADE FORMS. THEY FORM IT IN THE WOOD AND THEN THEY'LL POUR THOSE IN PLACE AFTER GRADE BEAMS THEY'LL DO THE SLAB.

THE LOWER LEFT IS A VIEW INSIDE THE EXISTING KITCHEN.

YOU CAN SEE THE BACK WALL BLOWN OUT WHERE WE'RE GOING TO BE EXPANDING IT A LITTLE BIT MORE.

DUE TO THE COMPLETE RECONFIGURATION OF THE KITCHEN, AND HOW MUCH WE'D HAVE TO CUT UP THE SLAB ANYWAY, YOU CAN SEE HOW THE SLAB HAS BEEN REMOVED. THEY HAVE COMPLETED THE STUB UPS FOR UTILITIES, AND THEY'LL LOOK TO POUR BACK A COMPLETE NEW SLAB THAT CATCHES THE EXISTING AS WELL AS THE EXPANSION IN THE BACK, AND THEN THEY'LL START BUILDING UP WALLS. STILL ON SCHEDULE TO COMPLETE JUNE OF 2025.

[01:30:06]

WORK IN THE KITCHEN IS ONGOING, WITH PLUMBING ROUGH IN COMPLETE.

THIS IS THIS IS A PICTURE OF THE KITCHEN WORK HAPPENING WITH THE INTERIOR WALLS GOING UP AND BEING FRAMED.

UP HERE IN THE UPPER LEFT IS THE FREEZER COOLER PAD, YOU KNOW, TO MAKE ROOM IN THE EXISTING KITCHEN SPACE WHERE THE FREEZER AND COOLER USED TO BE HOUSED THEY'RE MOVING IT TO AN ADDITION IN THE BACK TO TO FREE UP SPACE IN HERE SO THEY CAN RENOVATE AND PROVIDE BETTER FLOW.

AND SO THEY'RE GOING TO THE FREEZER COOLER WILL BE ON THE OUTSIDE WITH THE INTERIOR CONNECTION TO THE NEW KITCHEN, THEY'VE COMPLETED AND POURED THE FOOTINGS FOR THAT.

THE TEMPORARY SERVING LINE WAS PUT INSIDE THE EXISTING DINING ROOM SPACE WITH KIND OF A WALL BETWEEN WHERE THEY'RE WORKING BEHIND HOUSE AND WHERE THEY'RE, YOU KNOW, STUDENTS AND STAFF ARE STILL DOING KITCHEN WORK IN FRONT OF HOUSE. SO THAT TEMPORARY SERVING LINE WILL CONTINUE TO BE IN PLAY WHILE THEY COMPLETE WORK IN THE KITCHEN BEHIND CONSTRUCTION WALL. EXPECT TO WRAP THAT UP IN MARCH OF 2025.

ALL RIGHT. WILLIAMS HIGH SCHOOL PHASE TWO RENOVATION.

WE'RE CURRENTLY ON SCHEDULE THROUGH PHASE CONSTRUCTION THAT HAS THIS BUILDING COMPLETE BY JULY OF 2026.

A CHANGE ORDER WAS APPROVED IN DECEMBER, ADDING ADDITIONAL SCOPE TO THE ROWLINSON NATATORIUM, WHICH THE DISTRICT TOOK OWNERSHIP OF THIS PAST JANUARY.

WE WILL CLOSE THE NATATORIUM IN APRIL TO MAKE THE NECESSARY RENOVATIONS, AND THEN LOOK TO OPEN IT BACK UP IN OCTOBER 2025.

PHASE ONE SOME OF THAT IS PICTURED HERE. PHASE ONE INCLUDED CHOIR, DRAMA, THEATER, AND NEW RESTROOMS. THESE SPACES HAVE BEEN COMPLETED AND TURNED OVER TO THE CAMPUS. SO PHASE ONE WAS RIGHT HERE ON THE MAP.

I'M GOING TO FLIP BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN THESE TWO, BUT HERE'S SOME OF THE PHASE ONE COMPLETION PHOTOS.

SO THAT HAS BEEN TURNED OVER TO THE SCHOOL. PHASE TWO IS THE CLEAR STORAGE AREA ABOVE WHAT WILL BE THE NEW CENTRAL SPINE HALLWAY.

IT'S ONGOING. YOU CAN SEE IN THE PICTURES HERE.

WELL, YOU WON'T SEE IT IN THESE PICTURES HERE, BUT JUST KNOW THAT A TEMPORARY CORRIDOR REMAINS IN PLACE TO PROVIDE THE CAMPUS WITH ACCESS TO THE CAFETERIA AND OTHER AREAS FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE SCHOOL YEAR. BUT THESE PICTURES ARE SHOWING YOU HOW ALL THE STEEL AND EXTERIOR WALLS AND ROOFING ARE COMPLETE.

ABOVE THAT EXISTING CONCRETE SLAB WORK IS CONTINUING BELOW IN PREPARATION OF CUTTING THAT ROOF SLAB AND TYING THAT HIGH VOLUME CONNECTION.

SO, YOU KNOW YOU'LL HAVE THAT HIGH VOLUME THROUGH THAT WHOLE CENTRAL SPINE THIS SUMMER.

PHASE THREE, THIS AREA RIGHT IN HERE WAS RECENTLY TURNED OVER TO THE CAMPUS AND INCLUDED SOME CTE AND GENERAL CLASSROOMS. PHASE FOUR AND FIVE ARE ONGOING WITH EXPECTED TURNOVER BY END OF MARCH.

PHASE FOUR IS WORKING ON UNDERGROUND UTILITIES AND ELECTRICAL ROOM FRAMING AND MEP ROOFING, MECHANICAL ELECTRICAL PLUMBING. AND PHASE FIVE IS FINISHING DEMO.

LET ME SEE WHERE MY PICTURES GO HERE. NOT THAT MUCH.

HOW MANY PHASES IS WILLIAMS? WE'RE GOING TO KEEP ON THE MAP 11.

11. IT GOES TO 11. SORRY FOR INTERRUPTING. YES, SIR.

DO WE KNOW WHAT WE'RE DOING WITH ROWLINSON? YES, WE ARE WE ARE RENOVATING.

WE ARE IT'S A IT'S A POOL CURRENTLY USED BY THE CITY OF PLANO SWIMMERS BY THE MAJORITY.

WE ARE RENOVATING IT TO TRY TO ACCOMMODATE PLANO EAST, MOVING BACK TO IT TO USE IT AS THEIR THEIR MAIN PRACTICE PRACTICE AREA.

IT WILL CONTINUE TO BE USED IN COOPERATION WITH WITH THE CITY OF PLANO SWIMMERS THAT CAN HELP US KIND OF TAKE CARE OF THE POOL, AND THEY KIND OF ALREADY KNOW THE CHEMISTRY, YOU KNOW, KIND OF INVOLVED. WE'LL DEFINITELY USE THEM AND LEAN ON THEM TO HELP US WITH THAT. BUT IT'S REALLY TO MAKE IT, YOU KNOW, TO KIND OF HAVE A POOL SPACE OF OUR OWN FOR PLANO EAST TO PRACTICE AND KIND OF FOR US TO USE FOR, I THINK I'VE HEARD WATER SAFETY, MAYBE IN THE ELEMENTARY KIDS.

WHAT WE'RE DOING TO ACCOMMODATE PLANO EAST'S PRACTICING IS THE STARTER BLOCKS ARE ON THE SHALLOW END.

WE'RE MOVING THOSE TO THE OTHER END SO THEY CAN DIVE ON THE DEEPER.

WE'RE ADDING LOCKER ROOM SPACE AND THERE WAS A THIRD ITEM THERE, TOO.

RECODING THE. WE'RE WE ARE RECODING YES, SIR. PHASE SIX. WE'RE NOT THERE YET, BUT WE'RE GOING TO BE GETTING THERE.

PHASE SIX IS A LIBRARY, AND THE KITCHEN AREA AND DINING ROOM THAT WILL BEGIN OVER SPRING BREAK.

PHASE SEVEN IS THE LOWER CLASSROOMS HERE BELOW THE SECOND STORY CLASSROOM AREA.

THEY'LL THEY'LL BEGIN ON THAT CLASSROOM WORK IN AUGUST. PHASE EIGHT IS THE LOCKER ROOMS AND GYM, THAT WILL START IN AUGUST AS WELL. FOR THE SUMMER, PHASE NINE IS THE SCIENCE LABS.

IT'LL START IN OCTOBER. PHASE TEN IS THE BAND HALL ORCHESTRA IN NOVEMBER.

AND THEN PHASE 11, WHICH IS THE AUDITORIUM AND THE FIELD HOUSE IS MARCH 2026.

[01:35:07]

AND THAT'S NOTHING. WHEN WE GET TO PLANO SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL HERE IN A MINUTE AND START TO TALK PHASING HERE, BUT HAGGARD MIDDLE SCHOOL REPLACEMENT VLK ISSUED THE IFC, WHICH IS THE ISSUED FOR CONSTRUCTION SPECS AND DRAWINGS ON OCTOBER 31 ST CORE, OUR CONTRACTOR BIDED OUT IN NOVEMBER.

WE OPENED BIDS IN DECEMBER AND WE WERE POISED TO RECOMMEND A GMP TO THE JANUARY BOARD FOR APPROVAL.

WITH THE HOLIDAYS FAST APPROACHING FASTER THAN YOU THOUGHT, CORE ASKED TO MOVE THE GMP TO THE FEBRUARY BOARD TONIGHT TO ALLOW FOR MORE TIME TO PROPERLY EVALUATE AND SCOPE OUT ALL THE BIDS. THEY RECEIVED 320 TO 330 BIDS SHOWING GOOD PARTICIPATION, GOOD COVERAGE AND COMPETITION. AND WE AGREED THAT WE NEEDED MORE TIME TO SCOPE IT.

AND SO GOT IT ON THE CONSENT AGENDA TONIGHT AND GOT IT APPROVED.

REWIND VLK ISSUED THE IFC SET OCTOBER 31ST. NEXT DAY, NOVEMBER 1ST, PLANS ARE SUBMITTED TO THE CITY FOR PERMITTING.

FROM NOVEMBER TO TODAY, HAGGARD HAS CURRENTLY SATISFIED THE BUILDING HEALTH AND STORM SHELTER REVIEWS AND SHOULD BE RECEIVING ENGINEERING APPROVAL IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS.

THERE HAVE BEEN CHALLENGES BY HAVING TWO SEPARATE PROJECTS ON THE SAME SITE. PLANO SENIOR AND HAGGARD, WITH DIFFERENT PHASING NEEDS THAT HAVE LED TO SOME DIFFICULTY IN SATISFYING BOTH LEGAL AND PROCEDURAL REQUIREMENTS OF THE CITY OF PLANO THAT MUST BE ADHERED TO. THE HAGGARD PROJECT HAS BEEN A COLLABORATION EFFORT WITH VLK, CORE, OURSELVES AND THE CITY OF PLANO, AS WELL AS THE PLANO SENIOR DESIGN TEAM.

WE HAVE ALL WORKED DILIGENTLY TO ENSURE PROJECT DELIVERY TO THE BEST OF OUR COLLECTIVE ABILITIES, WHILE MAINTAINING OPEN DIALOG WITH ALL PARTIES INVOLVED.

THAT SAID, WE REALLY NEED THE PERMIT. IT IS AN 18 MONTH CONSTRUCTION DURATION.

THE GOOD NEWS IS, HAGGARD WILL CONTINUE TO OPERATE UNTIL THE NEW BUILDING IS COMPLETE AND CAN BE MOVED INTO.

BUT OBVIOUSLY OUR PREFERENCE, OF COURSE, IS TO START START IN THE NEW SCHOOL STARTING 2026, WHICH IS WHERE WE ARE AIMING. NO NEW SLIDES, PARTICULARLY HERE.

YOU KNOW WE'VE SEEN THESE. THIS IS A LOOK AT THE NEW MAIN ENTRY.

DID THROW IN A COUPLE JUST KIND OF KIND OF VIEWS DOWN INDEPENDENCE AND THEN A FEW INTERIOR SHOTS THAT THEY PROVIDED US OF SOME OF THE LIBRARY SPACE.

PLANO SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL, THE PACKAGE ONE GMP, WHICH IS THE BASEBALL AND SOFTBALL COMPLEX, WAS APPROVED JUNE 25TH. AND AS MENTIONED, THERE WERE COMPLICATIONS REGARDING TWO SEPARATE PROJECTS ON SITE.

OUR PERMIT WAS RECEIVED IN SEPTEMBER. SINCE THAT TIME, CORE GOT AFTER IT AND THE NEW TURF IS COMPLETE AT BOTH THE BASEBALL AND SOFTBALL FIELDS.

WE HAD SOME RAIN, BUT THE FIELD ARE BEING TURNED OVER THIS WEEK TO THE SCHOOL FOR PRACTICE ONLY.

NO GAMES WILL BE PLAYED HERE. THIS IS A FAIRLY GOOD PICTURE OF IT.

I DID GET A BETTER ONE HERE RECENTLY. I JUST CARE WON'T LET ME UPDATE THESE AFTER I SUBMIT TO A CERTAIN DATE, BUT THERE'S SOME NEW STUFF, SO. SO NO GAMES WILL BE PLAYED HERE.

SO ALTHOUGH THE TURF FIELDS WILL BE TURNED OVER, THIS WILL STILL BE A CONSTRUCTION ZONE OUTSIDE OF PRACTICE TIMES WHERE WE WILL CONTINUE TO COMPLETE THE DUGOUTS. KIND OF A PICTURE HERE.

YOU KNOW, THEY'RE GOING TO COMPLETE THE DUGOUTS, THE RESTROOMS, CONCESSIONS AND THE REST OF THE BASEBALL SOFTBALL COMPLEX, WHICH SHOULD BE COMPLETE BY MAY OF 2025. THE REMAINDER OF THE PROJECT WAS BID OUT IN NOVEMBER, AND A GMP WILL BE SUBMITTED TO THE MARCH 11TH BOARD FOR APPROVAL. WHEN THE PROJECT BID IN NOVEMBER, IT WAS ALSO SUBMITTED TO THE CITY FOR PERMIT, AND TWO PROJECTS ON ONE SITE HAS ADDED TIME HAVING TO BREAK THE ONE SIDE INTO INDIVIDUAL LOTS, SUBMIT PRELIMINARY SITE PLANS ON EACH INDIVIDUAL LOT BEFORE BEING ABLE TO SUBMIT THE FULL ENGINEERING PACKAGE WHICH THEY WERE ABLE TO DO IN DECEMBER 23RD, RIGHT BEFORE BREAK. WE'RE CURRENTLY STILL FIELDING A FEW COMMENTS FROM THE CITY.

TENTATIVELY WE HAVE TENTATIVELY, WE HAVE A NOTICE TO PROCEED AND A PERMIT IF TENTATIVELY WE HAVE A NOTICE TO PROCEED IN A PERMIT BY MID-MARCH.

CONSTRUCTION WOULD CONTINUE IN PHASES UNTIL COMPLETION JULY 2028.

ONE SLIDE. HERE'S SOME PICTURES. JUST KIND OF SOME MORE RECENT RENDERINGS PROVIDED BY CORE AGAIN.

YOU KNOW, THIS IS A LOOK AT THE NEW MAIN ENTRY.

THIS IS A LOOK AT THE INTERIOR OF THE NEW BUILDING THAT WILL BE CREATED.

AND THEN AND THIS IS KIND OF A LOOK BACK ACROSS THE POND AT THE NEW AT THE NEW THING.

I REALIZE I MISSED THE OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE ANOTHER JUST KIND OF THE PHASING DIAGRAM TO SHOW AND POINT TO, BUT JUST JUST BRIEFLY. AND WE CAN KIND OF GET INTO IT.

IF YOU WANT TO PICTURE THIS IN YOUR MIND THAT, YOU KNOW, CONSTRUCTION WOULD BEGIN IN MARCH. AND SO PHASE ONE, I'M GOING TO CALL THEM THE PHASES THAT CORE IS CALLING THEM. BUT PHASE ONE IS THE DEMO OF THE EXISTING STUDENT ACTIVITY CENTER.

AND THEN RELOCATING THE EXISTING BAND PRACTICE FIELD TO ITS NEW LOCATION UP IN THE NORTHEAST CORNER OF SORRY, SOUTHEAST CORNER, UP BY PARK. THAT WILL HAPPEN FROM MARCH THROUGH JULY 2025.

THEN PHASE ONE TWO WITH THE STUDENT ACTIVITY CENTER IN THE EXISTING BAND PRACTICE FIELD CLEARED OUT THAT WILL GIVE THEM ROOM TO START BUILDING THE ATHLETIC ADDITIONS ON THE SIDE OF BUILDING E, WHICH IS THE EXISTING GYM COMPETITION SPACE AND THAT WILL INCLUDE THE TWO NEW GYMS,

[01:40:03]

THOSE WILL BE ONGOING, BUILDING THOSE FROM MARCH 2025 THROUGH JULY OF 2026.

SO ATHLETICS, YOU KNOW, IS GOING TO BE WITHOUT A STUDENT ACTIVITY CENTER FOR ABOUT A YEAR.

AND THEY'VE ALREADY INDICATED TEMPORARILY MOVING OFF CAMPUS FOR PRACTICE WHILE THE NEW ATHLETIC FACILITIES ARE COMPLETED.

TONY, CAN I ASK REAL QUICK? YES. THE ACTIVITY CENTER IS ALSO CALLED THE FIELD HOUSE.

ARE THOSE THE SAME THING? NO. THE FIELD HOUSE IS SOMETHING DIFFERENT. IT'S THE SAC.

THE SAC? SO THE STUDENT ACTIVITY CENTER. I DON'T KNOW IF THEY CALL IT ON CAMPUS, THE FIELD HOUSE, BUT. IT'S THE SAME THING. THEY JUST CALL IT DIFFERENT.

THAT'S WHAT I'M TRYING TO FIGURE OUT BECAUSE I THINK IT'S THE INDOOR FOOTBALL PRACTICE FIELD.

OKAY. YES. THEY'LL DROP IT IN FOR BASEBALL BATTING CAGES IN THERE AND THROW AND DO ALL SORTS OF.

YEP. AGAIN, I'D LIKE TO I WISH I HAD ONE TO POINT TO AND I CAN GET INTO, YOU KNOW, KIND OF GO INTO THIS FURTHER, BUT, YOU KNOW, PHASE ONE THREE, YOU KNOW, AFTER ATHLETICS AND WE'RE GETTING INTO THE REST OF THE STUFF.

WE'VE GOT PHASE ONE THREE, WHICH IS THE RENOVATION OF THE EXISTING ATHLETIC.

I'M SORRY WE'RE NOT DONE WITH ATHLETICS YET. PHASE ONE THREE IS THE RENOVATION OF THE EXISTING ATHLETIC BUILDING E SO THE EXISTING BUILDING E IS ALSO GOING TO GET A RENOVATION, AND IT'S SUBDIVIDED INTO THREE SEPARATE PHASES, MAKING SURE THAT THEY NEVER GO WITHOUT A GYM FLOOR.

THAT'S GOING TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT'S GOING TO OCCUR DURING MAY 2025 THROUGH NOVEMBER OF 2026.

SO THAT'S THAT WOULD COMPLETE THE ATHLETIC PHASING.

SO THEY'LL HAVE, YOU KNOW, THEY'LL BE DONE WITH THEIR ATHLETICS AND THE NEW STUDENT ACTIVITY CENTER AND STUFF BY JULY OF 2026.

AFTER THAT, THE REST OF THE CAMPUS, YOU'LL HAVE 2.1.

WE'RE GOING TO BE BUILDING THE NEW CHILLERS AND BOILERS. SO EXISTING BUILDING C WHICH IS KIND OF THERE IN THE HEART OF IT IF YOU'RE LOOKING AT THE PLAN, THE BUILDING C IS THE HEART OF THIS CAMPUS. AND IT FEEDS A LOT OF THE OTHER BUILDINGS FROM TECHNOLOGY TO ITS HVAC SYSTEM AND ALL THAT.

SO THEY'VE GOT TO BUILD A NEW CHILLER AND BOILER FIRST BEFORE THEY CAN TAKE DOWN BUILDING C, AND SO THAT WILL OCCUR JANUARY 2026 TO JULY 2026.

AFTER THAT, OR AT THE SAME TIME AS THAT, THEY'LL BE BRINGING IN A PORTABLE VILLAGE, MAYBE TENTATIVELY.

THEY NEED SWING SPACE. SO SOME WAY OR ANOTHER, THEY'RE GOING TO BE LOOKING AT BEING ABLE TO GET IN A POSITION WHERE THEY CAN MOVE BUILDING B, YOU KNOW, STUDENTS AND STAFF THAT ARE IN BUILDING B TO ANOTHER LOCATION SO THAT THEY CAN HAVE THAT WHOLE BUILDING TO RENOVATE AND THAT WILL OCCUR BUILDING B WILL BE RENOVATED FROM MAY 20TH. AND I KNOW THESE ARE A LOT OF DATES.

NEXT TIME I'M GOING TO HAVE THE THING, BUT THAT'S FROM MAY 2026 THROUGH JULY 2027.

DURING THAT SAME TIME, THEY'LL HAVE DEMOED BUILDING C AND THEY'LL START BUILDING NEW BUILDING C.

THE IDEA WITH THE PORTABLE, WITH THE PORTABLES IS JUST THAT THEY'RE MOVING ENTIRELY OUT.

YOU KNOW, THE LARGER THE AMOUNT OF SPACE THAT THEY HAVE TO RENOVATE AND NOT HAVE TO SUBDIVIDE, KIND OF LIKE WILLIAMS SUBDIVIDE AND WORK AROUND STUDENTS AND STAFF, THE BETTER.

SO THEY'VE WORKED US. THEY'VE WORKED AN IDEA WHERE THEY CAN KIND OF MOVE EVERYBODY OUT OF BUILDING B, WORK IT, MOVE THEM BACK IN. WHEN THAT'S COMPLETE, THEY'LL MOVE FOLKS FROM A, WHICH IS A LOT OF ADMINISTRATION FOLKS, BUT THEY'LL MOVE TO A PORTABLE LOCATION. THEY'LL DO A AND COMPLETE THAT WORK AND AGAIN, EVERYTHING BY 20TH JULY OF 2028.

NEXT TIME I'LL HAVE A MAP AND BE POINTING TO IT.

AND IT'LL PROBABLY IT'LL BE VERY CRYSTAL. I HAVE IT BEFORE YOU GET OFF THE PLANO SENIOR HIGH.

YES. IT'S THE BURNING QUESTION THAT I KNOW THAT EVERY STUDENT FROM PLANO SENIOR HIGH WANTS TO KNOW. AND WHAT ABOUT THE POND? WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN TO THE POND? THE POND IS STAYING.

WE ARE IT'S A GOOD QUESTION, THOUGH, JUST TO IT'S SOMETHING I DIDN'T HIGHLIGHT THERE WE ARE ADDING SECURITY FENCING.

NOT AROUND THE PROPERTY ITSELF, BUT WHAT WE'VE BEEN DESIGNATED TO DO WE'RE KIND OF DIRECTED TO DO IS PROVIDE A SECURITY FENCING THAT RUNS TIGHT TO THE BUILDINGS, TRYING TO CATCH TRYING TO GO FROM BUILDING CORNER TO BUILDING CORNER.

AND A COUPLE OF OPTIONS WERE LOOKED AT. YOU KNOW, SOME OPTIONS PUT THE POND ON THE OUTSIDE OF THAT FENCING OR PUT IT ON THE INSIDE OF THAT FENCING. AND WE'VE WE'VE DEVELOPED ONE THAT PUTS IT ON THE INSIDE OF THE FENCING THAT POND BEING VERY IMPORTANT TO THE STUDENT'S ABILITY TO STEP OUTSIDE AND SOCIALIZE AND THINGS LIKE THAT. SO BUT IT REMAINS. WE'RE NOT CONCRETING IT OVER.

WE'RE NOT. IT IS A ITEM OF CONCERN FOR THE STUDENT BODY.

ABSOLUTELY. CAREER AND TECHNICAL EDUCATION CENTER.

THE GMP WAS APPROVED ON NOVEMBER 6TH. IF YOU GUYS ALL REMEMBER, WE WERE ALL OUT THERE.

GROUNDBREAKING CEREMONY WAS HELD ON NOVEMBER 19TH.

THE DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION TEAM HAVE BEEN WORKING DILIGENTLY SINCE, WITH THE CITY OF PLANO TO ENSURE THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE NEW CTE CENTER MEETS ALL CODES

[01:45:06]

WITH THAT IN MIND, WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF STUDYING THE EFFECT NOT ONLY WITH THE ENVIRONMENT, BUT WITH HOW THE BUILDING WILL IMPACT THE TRAFFIC COMING AND GOING FROM THE FACILITY. WE HAVE ALSO WORKED WITH THE CITY PLANNERS TO DEVELOP A LANDSCAPING BUFFER BETWEEN THE RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITY AND THE FACILITY, TO HELP MITIGATE POSSIBLE NOISE IF WE RECEIVE PERMITS TO START THIS WEEK. I HAD AN EMAIL IN MY INBOX THIS AFTERNOON AT 3:24 FROM THE CITY, INDICATING IT SEEMS THE DECISION IS PENDING TO MOVE FORWARD WITH FULL PERMIT RELEASE FOR CTE.

IF SO, JOERIS, THE CONTRACTOR, COULD MOST LIKELY BE MOBILIZED AND MOVING DIRT BY THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK.

JOERIS HAS INDICATED A 20 MONTH CONSTRUCTION DURATION, SO WHICHEVER DAY WE START IN FEBRUARY 2025, TODAY BEING THE FOURTH, YOU CAN END THE SAME DAY IN OCTOBER OF 2026.

SO I KNOW THAT'S NOT IDEAL. IT'S NOT THAT'S NOT A START OF SCHOOL THING.

IT'S KIND OF A MID. BUT IN ORDER TO DO IT PROPERLY AND TO THE HIGHEST OF FINISHES AND HIGHEST LEVEL EXPECTED THAT THEY DON'T WANT TO SKIMP ON THE TIME.

BUT THAT'S KIND OF A KIND OF A WAY TO GAUGE THE ACCURATE, ACCURATE TIMELINE. SO WE'RE HOPING WE GOT PERMIT SOMETIME THIS WEEK, AND THEN WE'LL HAVE A 20 MONTH CONSTRUCTION DURATION WHEN WE FINALLY GET MOVING ON IT.

SOME ADDITIONAL PICTURES. YOU KNOW, WE'VE SEEN THESE FOR A WHILE HERE. FRONT ENTRY, YOU KNOW, KIND OF A LOOK DOWN OFF THE SECOND FLOOR INTO THE MAIN LOBBY SPACE.

SOME ADDITIONAL PHOTOS. THE SITE THAT WE'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT, DOING THE TRAFFIC STUDY ON THAT AND THEN SOME JUST KIND OF SOME ADDITIONAL INTERIOR REVIEWS. REAL NICE COLOR PALETTE. LOOKS GOOD.

PLANO WEST SENIOR HIGH RENOVATION THE GMP WAS APPROVED BY THE BOARD IN DECEMBER.

OVER WINTER BREAK, ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF MOVED INTO THEIR NEW TEMPORARY LOCATIONS.

SO ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF KIND OF SITS HERE IN BUILDING A AND THEY MOVED ACROSS THE HALL, YOU KNOW, INTO THEIR TEMPORARY LOCATIONS IN ANTICIPATION OF THE FIRST PHASE OF CONSTRUCTION BEGINNING IN FEBRUARY.

THE PERMIT REVIEW PROCESS HAS TAKEN LONGER THAN ANTICIPATED, BUT WE FEEL IT IS CLOSE ONCE WE BEGIN.

THE FIRST PHASE IS RENOVATING THE EXISTING ADMIN SUITE.

SO THE EXISTING ADMIN SUITE THAT THEY VACATED WILL BE TURNED INTO SPECIAL ED CLASSROOMS. PHASE TWO WILL THEN BE TAKING KIND OF MORE SPACES THAT OCCUPY THIS SPACE, GETTING THEM INTO TEMPORARY LOCATIONS THROUGHOUT THE BUILDING TO FINISH THE SPED SUITE. PHASE CONSTRUCTION WOULD CONTINUE THROUGH JULY 2027.

SO NEXT TIME WE'RE DOING BOARD UPDATES, I'LL CONTINUE WITH THE PHASING OF THIS.

BUT THE MAJORITY OF THIS ONE IT'S GOT A LOT OF WORK IN A OBVIOUSLY, BUT A LOT OF THE WORK IN ATHLETICS IS KIND OF ADDITIONS, WORK THAT HOPEFULLY WON'T DISRUPT OR DISPLACE TOO MUCH OF ATHLETICS OFF CAMPUS.

AGAIN, SOME VIEWS. THIS IS THE LOOK FROM THE NEW ATHLETIC SIDE OF THE CAMPUS.

KIND OF A SITE AERIAL. THIS IS A NEW ADDITION, YOU KNOW, KIND OF MIRRORING THE EXISTING CLASSROOM WING NOW WE'RE BUILDING THIS NEW WING RIGHT HERE, THE ADMINISTRATIVE SUITE THAT SITS HERE RIGHT NOW.

AGAIN, THEY'RE TEMPORARILY MOVING ACROSS THE HALL, BUT EVENTUALLY THEIR NEW LOCATION IS MOVING TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BUILDING AS PART OF THIS RENOVATION, WHICH WILL HELP PROVIDE JUST KNOW, KIND OF A BETTER ENTRY.

WE'VE JOKED BEFORE ABOUT GOING IN HERE AND PICKING THE WRONG DIRECTION AND STUFF.

SOME VIEWS OF THE NEW GYM'S SPACES, YOU KNOW, AGAIN, STORM SHELTER.

THEY'LL ACT AS STORM SHELTERS HERE, BUT KIND OF A VIEW OF THAT AND KIND OF THAT MAIN HALLWAY.

SO IT'S GOING TO LOOK REALLY NICE WHEN COMPLETE.

PLANO EAST GMP WAS APPROVED BY THE BOARD IN DECEMBER.

THE PROJECT THERE'S GOING TO BE A THEME HERE.

THE PROJECT CONTINUING THE PERMIT AND SITE PLAN PROCESS WITH THE CITY OF PLANO IS NEARING PERMIT ISSUANCE.

AFTER FINAL ENGINEERING SITE PLAN COMMENTS ARE ADDRESSED TO MODIFY EXISTING PUBLIC ROADS NEAR THE CAMPUS.

THE DESIGN TEAM AND CITY OF PLANO HAVE BEEN WORKING CLOSELY TO ADDRESS COMMENTS, MEET ORDINANCES, APPROVE VARIANCES, AND PROVIDE A PROJECT FOR PLANO ISD TO BEGIN GROUNDBREAKING, EXPECTED TO BE AT THE START OF MARCH 2025.

THE FIRST PHASE OF CONSTRUCTION WILL BE THE TENNIS COURT PARKING REMOVAL.

SO KIND OF I THINK THE TENNIS COURTS ARE ROUGHLY OUR NEW TENNIS COURTS ARE GOING UP IN THIS CORNER RIGHT HERE, AND I BELIEVE THEY ARE OCCUPYING SOMEWHERE DOWN IN THIS SPACE HERE.

WE'RE GOING TO BE DOING OUR ADDITION. SO THAT'LL LOOK TO BE DEMOED OUT FIRST SO THEY CAN START BUILDING THE NEW ADDITION HERE.

LET'S SEE. OKAY. INTERIOR INNOVATION UNIT OKAY.

SO THE FIRST PHASE CONSTRUCTION WILL BE TENNIS COURT PARKING REMOVAL, THEN NEW GYMNASIUM, BUILDING CONSTRUCTION, INTERIOR RENOVATION WORK IN UNIT C WILL FOLLOW, THEN OTHER WORK THROUGHOUT THE CAMPUS AND PHASE INTERVALS UNTIL FINAL COMPLETION AT THE END OF 2026. A COUPLE MORE PHOTOS OF THAT AS WELL.

SIMILAR AERIAL VIEW. AGAIN, A NEW GYM ADDITION TO GYM FOUR ADDITION S CONNECTING THE STUDENT ACTIVITY CENTER.

ARE WE AT RIGHT HERE? THERE YOU GO. STUDENT ACTIVITY CENTER EXISTING. OUR NEW GYM ADDITION RIGHT HERE IN THE BACK. THAT VIEW THAT WE'VE BEEN SEEING IS NOT ACTUALLY T HE NEW IS

[01:50:03]

A COUPLE INTERIOR ROOMS OF SOME OF THE ATHLETIC SPACES AND THE NEW GYM KIND OF WALK IN PORT.

THE NEW STORM SHELTER GYMS. THIS IS JUST KIND OF A TEAM MEETING ROOM OR MULTI-PURPOSE ROOM.

TONY. YES. I LOVE THAT YOU KEEP THE OMINOUS PANTHER EYES.

YES, DEFINITELY. I LOVE THAT. AND THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF DIFFERENT RENDITIONS OF THAT, TOO.

BUT, YEAH, THAT ONE'S PROBABLY. THAT'S JUST NICE.

THAT'S THE BEST. ALL RIGHT. THE BONSER-THOMAS WELCOME IN ENROLLMENT CENTER.

A CHANGE ORDER WAS APPROVED BY THE BOARD IN DECEMBER THAT EXTENDED THE SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION DATE TO FEBRUARY 2020 OR FEBRUARY 21.

SORRY. SO JUST AROUND THE CORNER. I'M SORRY. CAN I BACK YOU UP A SECOND TO PLANO EAST? YEP. ARE WE LOSING PARKING WHERE THE NEW TENNIS COURTS ARE GOING IN? THERE IS A NET LOSS OF PARKING SPACES OF ABOUT SEVEN OVERALL.

WHEN THE TENNIS COURTS MOVED TO THIS NEW LOCATION THEY'RE CREATING NEW OR THEY'RE MAKING UP NEW PARKING IN THIS AREA HERE.

AND THERE'S SOME ON THE FRONT OF THE CAMPUS AS WELL.

SO OVERALL SITE PARKING. WE'RE LOSING SEVEN SPACES.

OKAY. SORRY, I WAS LOOKING AT THE MAP HERE, AND YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE CARS PARKED THERE ON THE MAP.

AND I KNOW A LOT OF OUR CAMPUSES ARE TIGHT ON PARKING, JUST AS IS.

ABSOLUTELY. NO, THAT'S A GOOD QUESTION. BUT YES, WE THAT IS ONE OF THE VARIANCES THAT WE ASKED FOR WITH THE CITY.

WE WERE ALREADY A LITTLE UNDER PARKED ON THIS CAMPUS.

WE WANTED TO BE NET ZERO, AND WE DID THE BEST THAT WE COULD TO TRY TO DO THAT.

BUT WE WERE DOWN. YEAH. SEVEN SPACES AND IT CLEARED VARIANCE.

THEY WERE OKAY WITH THAT. THEY UNDERSTOOD. OKAY, SO THE BONDS ARE SO WE GOT A A CHANGE ORDER APPROVED ON THAT, THAT THAT MOVED OUR SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION DATE TO FEBRUARY OF 21.

SO A COUPLE WEEKS FROM NOW WE RECENTLY GOT PERMANENT POWER AND GAS SERVICE ESTABLISHED AT THIS SITE.

SO WE WERE ABLE TO START DOING FINISHES UNTIL LIGHT AND AIR WERE IN THE BUILDING YOU KNOW, YOU COULDN'T ACCLIMATE YOU KNOW, THINGS LIKE FLOORING AND CARPET AND STUFF LIKE THAT. SO PERMANENT POWER AND GAS SERVICE HELPS WITH THAT.

SO THE INTERIOR HAS BEEN PAINTED, DOORS HAVE BEEN INSTALLED, AS WELL AS CASEWORK INSTALLED RESTROOMS HAVE BEEN TILED AN, THE PLUMBING FIXTURES HAVE BEEN MOUNTED. FLOORING IS GOING TO BE STARTING AT THE END OF THIS WEEK.

AND THEN THE FINAL PROJECT TO TALK ABOUT IS THE HARRINGTON ELEMENTARY SCHOOL RETROFIT.

THE PROJECT AT HARRINGTON IS TO MAKE IT READY FOR THE REGIONAL DAY SCHOOL PROGRAM FOR THE DEAF THAT WILL BE RELOCATING HERE FROM DAVIS ELEMENTARY.

EACH GRADE LEVEL WILL ACCOMMODATE FOUR CLASSROOMS PLUS ONE DEAF ED CLASSROOM.

CAMPUS WILL ALSO CONTAIN FOUR PRE-K CLASSROOMS WITH ACTIVITY ROOM.

ONE DEAF PLUS SPED CLASSROOM. THE PROJECT WILL INCLUDE ACOUSTIC IMPROVEMENTS TO CORRIDORS, GYM, CAFETERIA, PACE, ART AND MUSIC ROOMS, AND WILL ALSO INCLUDE A DEAF ED AUDIO SYSTEM.

THE LIBRARY RENOVATION WILL BE DESIGNED FOR MORE FLEXIBLE LEARNING, AND BREAKOUT SPACE WILL HAVE WAYFINDING GRAPHICS THAT WILL BE INCORPORATED THROUGHOUT THE CAMPUS, AND A VISUAL ALERT NOTIFICATION SYSTEM WILL ALSO BE INSTALLED.

SO THE FIRST COUPLE SLIDES HERE IS A PROJECT OUTSIDE OF THAT THAT RETROFIT PROJECT, WHICH I'LL GET TO IN A SECOND.

THIS PLAYGROUND REPLACEMENT PROJECT WE'VE ALREADY BEGUN.

THIS IS PROVIDING TWO NEW ADA COMPLIANT ALL WEATHER WITH SUNSHADE CANOPY PLAYGROUNDS AT THIS CAMPUS THAT BEGAN IN NOVEMBER, AND YOU CAN SEE HOW THE UPPER UNIT PLAYGROUND HAS ALREADY BEEN DEMOED OUT.

THOSE ARE IN LINE TO BE COMPLETE BY START OF SCHOOL IN AUGUST.

SO THOSE ARE THOSE ARE GOOD TO GO. THE RETROFIT PLANS WERE BID IN JANUARY AFTER A LOT OF A LOT OF DISCUSSION WITH THE CAMPUS PRINCIPALS LEADERSHIP THOSE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REGIONAL DAY SCHOOL PROGRAM OF THE DEAF.

HELPING US FIGURE OUT WHAT WE NEEDED A LOT OF DESIGN MEETINGS.

WE BID THAT OUT IN JANUARY. THE PLANS WERE BID IN JANUARY, AND WE OPENED BIDS, AND WE OPENED BIDS JUST THIS AFTERNOON AND AT LEAST HAD FIVE BIDDERS.

WHICH IS WHICH IS ALWAYS GOOD. SO IT ALLOWS US TO, TO REVIEW NUMBERS AND SEE, YOU KNOW, ARE WE CLOSE? YOU KNOW, ARE WE CLOSE RETARGETED. SO IT'S GOOD.

WE'LL EVALUATE THOSE AND WE'LL COME TO THE MARCH BOARD WITH A CONTRACT, A RECOMMENDATION FOR APPROVAL.

MARCH BOARD APPROVAL OF THE CONTRACTOR WILL ALLOW THAT THAT CONTRACTOR TO START PROCURING ANY LONG LEAD ITEMS AND PROVIDING SUBMITTALS FOR REVIEW.

SO THEY WILL BE READY TO GO COME JUNE WHEN SCHOOL LETS OUT.

THE CONTRACTOR MAY HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY BE ABLE TO START WORKING IN THE EXISTING PRE-K WING.

MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT'S A A LITTLE LEAN OR, POTENTIALLY ALREADY ALREADY EMPTY, OR MAYBE HAS ANOTHER LOCATION TO GO.

BUT THERE'S TALK THAT WE CAN GET IN THERE EARLY AND START DOING WORK. THERE'S ALSO PARKING SPACES THAT WE'RE ADDING AS PART OF THIS PROJECT.

THEY CAN GET ONTO THE CAMPUS AND START DOING THAT WORK EARLY AS WELL BEFORE THE SUMMER STARTS.

SO WE'RE DEFINITELY GOING TO BE LEADING THEM IN THAT DIRECTION.

AS SAID, MULTIPLE MEETINGS WITH THE PRINCIPAL AND STAFF HAVE CREATED A FLOOR PLAN THAT IS FUNCTIONAL AND INVITING AND KIND OF SEE IT HERE. ONE OF THE DESIGN ELEMENTS CENTER TO THE

[01:55:07]

SO WE TAKE THAT AND BLOW THAT UP HERE WITH SOME SOME RENDERINGS AND STUFF.

YOU CAN KIND OF SEE TO THE NORTH AN AREA CLOSED FOR MORE FOCUSED STUDY IF YOU WANT IT.

BUT YOU KNOW, THE TRADITIONAL OPEN WITH STACKS AND COMFY LOUNGE SEATING TO LEARN ON THE OTHER SIDE.

THIS IS A MAIN HALLWAY THROUGH THE CAMPUS. YOU CAN KIND OF SEE IT BACK FOR THERE.

IT KIND OF PROVIDES A CONNECTION THROUGHOUT. BUT IT WAS IT WAS WELL THOUGHT OUT, WELL DESIGNED AND AND CAMPUS SEEMS VERY EXCITED ABOUT GETTING THIS IN THERE. I DON'T HAVE ANY OTHER INFORMATION ON THAT.

THAT'S THE END OF MY SLIDES OPEN FOR QUESTIONS.

I HAD A QUESTION ABOUT HARRINGTON IN PARTICULAR.

IF YOU GO BACK ONE TO HAVE THE ENTRANCE OR THE EXIT OF THAT PARKING LOT ON HARRINGTON, I WAS A LITTLE SURPRISED AT THAT BECAUSE THERE'S TWO HOUSES IMMEDIATELY AND THAT'S A MORE NARROW STREET THAN LIKE COUNTRY PLACE OR BAFFIN BAY.

SO WAS THERE A THOUGHT GIVEN TO MAYBE HAVING THE ENTRANCE OFF OF COUNTRY PLACE? I KNOW THAT'S A REALLY ESOTERIC QUESTION, BUT LIKE RIGHT BELOW WHERE IT SAYS STANTEC, I MEAN, THERE THERE ARE TWO PEOPLE'S FRONT YARDS, LIKE RIGHT THERE, RIGHT? IT'S NOT A BIG STREET. SO YOU POSSIBLY INDICATE LIKE WHETHER OR NOT IT COULD TURN.

YOU'RE SAYING, COME BACK OUT. WAS THERE ANY CONSIDERATION OF NOT HAVING THAT ENTRANCE ON HARRINGTON, BUT HAVING IT ON COUNTRY PLACE, WHICH IS A WIDER, A WIDER THOROUGHFARE.

I KNOW THAT IT WASN'T MENTIONED DURING OUR DESIGN.

IT IS SOMETHING THAT WE COULD POTENTIALLY LOOK AT.

I THINK THEY WERE MORE CONCERNED WITH GETTING THE NUMBER OF SPACES REQUESTED.

RIGHT. THAT, THEY PUT IT IN A STRAIGHT LINE. AND AGAIN, THE KIND OF THEIR KIND OF THEIR FIELD OR THEIR PLAYGROUNDS START TO GET INTO THIS AREA HERE. SO THEY WERE KIND OF LIMITED IN THE LINE.

BUT I CAN CERTAINLY, YOU KNOW, ASK ABOUT THAT AND SEE IF THAT'S SOMETHING THAT COULD BE EASILY DONE.

YEAH. I MEAN, IF IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE, IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE, WHICH IS WHEN I WAS LOOKING AT THIS, I THOUGHT, I WONDER HOW THOSE FIRST TWO HOUSES RIGHT THERE FEEL ABOUT THAT. HAVING THAT ADDITIONAL TRAFFIC ON A, ON A NORMAL RESIDENTIAL STREET COMPARED TO COUNTRY PLACE, WHICH, YOU KNOW, IS A MAJOR THOROUGHFARE, BAFFIN BAY ALSO.

OKAY. THE SECOND QUESTION I HAD AND JOHNNY, I HAD ASKED YOU ABOUT THIS PRIOR TO THE MEETING IS A LOT OF THE GMPS ARE COMING IN PRETTY CLOSE TO THE CONSTRUCTION ESTIMATES. AND LOOKING AT YOU KNOW, WHAT INFLATION HAS DONE AND HOW OTHER BOND PROGRAMS ARE NOW ESTIMATING WHAT THEIR SCHOOLS ARE GOING TO COST. I WAS PLEASED TO SEE, LIKE THE HAGGARD GMP LOOKS PRETTY CLOSE TO TO WHAT THE ORIGINAL CONSTRUCTION ESTIMATE WAS.

SO I WONDER IF YOU WOULD JUST COMMENT ON THAT.

AND, AND REALLY, THE SUCCESS AT MANAGING THIS BOND PROGRAM CLOSELY TO WHAT WE TALKED TO VOTERS ABOUT THREE YEARS AGO, RIGHT WHEN THIS WAS APPROVED. YEAH. I MEAN, I THINK SO FAR, I MEAN, SO JUST TO BE HONEST WITH YOU, I MEAN, THESE ARE COMING IN A LITTLE BIT OVER WHAT WE HAD ORIGINALLY PUT DOWN.

THAT IS, I THINK, PRETTY NORMAL IN MOST OF THESE PROJECTS BECAUSE IF YOU SEE, I MEAN, INFLATION HAS BEEN KICKING IN, BUT YOU ALSO HAVE NATURAL AND NATURAL JUST STAKEHOLDERS INPUT INTO THE PROJECT.

SO YOU SEE, YOU KNOW, EDUCATION SPACES HAVE HAVE GROWN A LITTLE BIT WITH BEING MORE CREATIVE AND BEING THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX.

I WILL SAY THAT IN MOST BOND PROGRAMS THERE IS AN IS AN OVERALL BOND CONTINGENCY THAT'S PLACED IN THERE TO JUST TO KIND OF MAKE SURE THAT YOU DON'T.

WHAT WE CALL BUST OUR BUDGET, OUR OVERALL, WHICH IS A BAD THING WHENEVER YOU'RE NOT ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH ALL THE PROJECTS.

WE KNEW WITH OUR FINANCIAL TEAM THAT WE'D LOOKED AT WHAT WAS GOING ON WITH INTEREST RATES.

WE DID NOT PLACE AN OVERALL BOND CONTINGENCY INTO OUR BOND PROGRAM, BUT WE KNEW THAT WE WERE ABLE WE WOULD BE ABLE TO INVEST OUR MONIES THAT WERE PLACED THERE. AND WE HAVE INVESTED. WE CAN ACTUALLY EARN UP TO WHATEVER WE'RE PAYING IN INTEREST EXPENSE AND ANYTHING OVER THAT.

OF COURSE, YOU PAY BACK TO THE IRS AND WHAT'S CALLED ARBITRAGE.

WE HAVE WE ARE IN THE ARBITRAGE. WE'RE COLLECTING ON INTEREST BECAUSE WE'RE WE HAVE A STRATEGIC POLICY ON HOW WE'RE INVESTING THOSE MONIES.

I THINK JUST IN THE LAST TWO YEARS, WE'VE ACTUALLY EARNED THE NON ARBITRAGE EARNINGS OF LIKE 20, ALMOST JUST A LITTLE BIT LESS THAN $30 MILLION.

AND SO WE'RE ABLE TO AGGRESSIVELY MAKE SURE THAT THAT WE'RE DOING EVERY ONE EVERY ONE OF OUR PROJECTS THAT WE SAID WE WERE GOING TO DO, DO THEM IN A TIMELY FASHION. BUT EVEN THOUGH WE KNOW WE HAVE THESE EXTERNAL PRESSURES OF EXPANDING THOSE BUDGETS, WE HAVE ENOUGH TO COVER THOSE. AND WE'RE WE'RE IN VERY SOLID FINANCIAL, YOU KNOW, POSITION THAT WE CAN COVER, MAKE SURE THAT WE CAN DO EVERYTHING WE SAID WE WERE GOING TO DO TO OUR COMMUNITY MEMBERS.

SO WE FEEL VERY GOOD ABOUT WHERE WE'RE AT RIGHT NOW WITH THAT.

DOES THAT ANSWER YOUR QUESTION? OKAY. WELL, THANK YOU TO YOU AND YOUR TEAM TO MAKE SURE THAT WE ARE GETTING THE FUNDS INTO AN ACCOUNT THAT CAN BE EARNING INCOME.

[02:00:03]

AND SO THAT MONEY SAT IN THE BANK FOR A LITTLE WHILE.

LOOK AT YOU FIST BUMPING BACK THERE. GOOD JOB.

[LAUGHTER] GOOD JOB. THAT'S IT. YEAH. DOES ANYBODY ELSE HAVE ANYTHING? DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY COMMENTS FOR TONY? YOU'RE GOOD.

GO AHEAD. NO, I WAS JUST GOING TO SAY EARLIER I SHOWED SELEND A PICTURE OF BEING AT ISAAC'S, AND THERE WAS THIS GIANT DRILL THING THAT I WAS LIKE, WHAT IS THIS? WHAT IS THIS MACHINERY? AND I DON'T KNOW IF IT WAS TO TAKE DOWN A BRICK WALL, BUT IT WAS SUPER FASCINATING.

IT WAS LIKE A WEEK AGO. OKAY. BUT IT'S SO FUN TO DRIVE AROUND THE DISTRICT, AND I CAN SEE THE ONE OF THE PLAYGROUNDS HAS BEEN LEVELED SO THAT THEY CAN PUT THE NEW PLAYGROUND IN I DRIVE. I MEAN, MY KID IS AT WILLIAMS, SO I'M IN THE BUILDING A LOT AND I SEE THE RENAULT.

I CANNOT WAIT FOR WHAT DID YOU CALL THE HALLWAY, THE PIPELINE.

THE SPINE, THE CENTRAL SPINE OF THE BUILDING.

IT'S GOING TO BE. IT'S GOING TO BE AMAZING. I DO.

I MEAN, I JUST DO WANT TO INTERJECT REAL QUICKLY.

AND THE FACT I THINK WE'VE GOT OVER ALMOST 50 PROJECTS GOING ON ON THE GROUND, WHICH IS AMAZING.

IT'S A REINVESTMENT INTO OUR SCHOOL DISTRICT.

YOU CAN'T DRIVE DOWN OR GO BY ONE CAMPUS, AND THERE'S REALLY NOT SOMETHING GOING ON.

THAT'S TO ME THAT WE OUGHT TO BE VERY PROUD OF THAT AND BE IT'S OUR COMMUNITY AND WE'RE INVESTING BACK IN OUR COMMUNITY.

I THINK THAT IT'S GOING TO PAY DIVIDENDS. IF YOU LOOK LONG TERM DOWN THE ROAD, WELL, I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU TO YOUR TEAM AND PLEASE EXTEND OUR GRATEFULNESS IN MANAGING ALL THESE DIFFERENT PROJECTS AT ONCE, BECAUSE I'M SURE, I'M SURE THERE ARE DAYS WHERE IT'S AN AWFUL LOT.

DEFINITELY. THANK YOU AND I WILL MAKE SURE THAT THEY GET THAT. THANK YOU. AND YEAH, APPRECIATE YOU GUYS'S SUPPORT, CERTAINLY JONNY HILL AND DR.

WILLIAMS AND STAFF. I MEAN, WE'VE BEEN IN A LOT OF MEETINGS TOGETHER AND IT'S BEEN A GREAT IT'S BEEN A GREAT PROCESS TO GET THESE GOING. SO IT'S A TEAM EFFORT.

I'LL JUST SAY I ECHO THAT. THANKS. WHEN I'M DRIVING HERE FOR ANY MEETINGS HERE, IF I'M DRIVING CERTAIN PLACES, I TAKE DIFFERENT WAYS TO DRIVE BY SOME OF OUR MAIN PROJECTS JUST TO SEE THEM.

SO I DRIVE BY PLANO SENIOR HIGH ALL THE TIME, AND AS SOON AS CORE PUT UP THAT FENCING, I WAS LIKE, LET'S GO. YOU KNOW, BECAUSE THAT THAT PROJECT IS PROBABLY GOING TO BE MY FAVORITE TO WATCH, BECAUSE THAT SHOULD BE OUR FLAGSHIP SENIOR HIGH.

AND I REALLY WANT JERI IS SAYING IT IS, BUT I WANT I WANT YOU TO DRIVE BY IT AND TO THINK THAT.

RIGHT. LIKE TO THINK THAT I WANT THE BUILDING TO REFLECT, LIKE THE LEGACY THAT PLANO SENIOR HIGH HAS IN THE COMMUNITY.

AND SO I'LL JUST ECHO TARRAH'S THANKS AND SAY THANK YOU FOR FROM ALL OF US.

LIKE, WE ARE VERY EXCITEDLY WATCHING THIS. ABSOLUTELY.

NO. APPRECIATE IT. I'M GOING TO ECHO. OH, SORRY.

I THINK WE JUST NEED TO BE GRATEFUL TO OUR TAXPAYERS FOR PASSING THE BOND.

WE NEED TO MAKE SURE WE APPRECIATE ALL THE EFFORTS BY THE DISTRICT, BUT WE NEED TO SAY TO OUR COMMUNITY FOR UNDERSTANDING AND HOPEFULLY, YOU KNOW, THEY ARE APPRECIATING THE FRUITS OF THEIR VOTES AND SUPPORT.

SO I JUST WANT TO GIVE A HUGE THANKS TO ALL OF OUR TEAMS. REALLY, WE SHOULD HAVE PICKED A I MEAN, OUR, THEME THIS YEAR WAS TEAMWORK AND WINNING FOR KIDS.

MAYBE IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN UNDER CONSTRUCTION [LAUGHTER] BECAUSE WE HAVE LOTS OF THINGS UNDER CONSTRUCTION FROM OUR STUDENT INFORMATION SYSTEM, FROM OUR ERP ENTERPRISE SYSTEM, AND THEN OUR ACTUAL CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS, OUR WEBSITE, OUR PARTNERS IN EDUCATION.

SO WE HAVE A LOT OF THINGS. BUT IN A COUPLE OF YEARS WHEN WE FINALLY GET THE CONSTRUCTION STUFF COMPLETED AND THE DUST OFF OF THINGS, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A LOT OF THINGS.

YES, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A LOT OF GREAT PROGRAMS, FACILITIES SYSTEMS AND THAT WILL BENEFIT OUR KIDS AND THAT OUR COMMUNITY WILL BE VERY PROUD OF. AND SO A LOT OF GRATITUDE TO THE TEAM THAT'S CARRYING A VERY HEAVY LOAD AND A VERY BIG LIFT THIS YEAR WITH ALL THINGS UNDER CONSTRUCTION.

OKAY, YOU SAID THAT, BUT I HAVE NOW ONE MORE THING TO SAY. SO I WILL NEVER FORGET COACH KIMBROUGH.

WHEN WE WERE TALKING ABOUT THE BOND PROGRAM BACK IN 2022, YOU KNOW, HE WAS THE COACH AT BOWMAN BACK IN 1965 WHEN BOWMAN MIDDLE SCHOOL OPENED.

AND HE TOLD ME THAT HE TOLD ME HE TOLD ME THAT KIDS DO BETTER IN BUILDINGS WHERE THEY FEEL PROUD TO WALK IN EVERY DAY, AND THAT THEY'RE GOING TO ACHIEVE BETTER WHEN THEY FEEL THAT PRIDE OF BEING IN THAT BUILDING AND KNOWING THAT THE COMMUNITY HAS INVESTED IN THEM.

AND HE PUT TO WORDS WHAT I KNEW. AND SO I REALLY APPRECIATE THAT HE VERBALIZED THAT.

AND FOR ME, AND I HOPE THE COMMUNITY WILL BE AS PROUD AS I KNOW WE ALL WILL BE.

[02:05:02]

AND AND HE'S BEEN SUCH A GREAT ADVISOR TO ALL OF US AS WE'VE NAVIGATED THESE MAJOR PROJECTS.

SO A HUGE THANK YOU TO COACH KIMBROUGH. ALL RIGHT.

ABSOLUTELY. THEY SAID EVERYTHING I WAS THINKING.

SO BUT THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR REPORT. IT WAS REALLY EYE OPENING.

THANKS. THANK YOU. OKAY. WE ARE NOW AT ITEM 11, CONCLUSION OF PUBLIC COMMENT SESSION FOR NON AGENDA
