8.2 Consideration and Approval of Employee Raises, Teacher Hiring Schedule, and Strategic Compensation Planning for the 2025 – 2026 School Year

[8.3 Consideration and Approval of the Endorsement of a Candidate for the Texas Association of School Boards (TASB) Board of Directors (Position A) ]

[00:45:06]

CONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL OF THE ENDORSEMENT OF A CANDIDATE FOR THE TEXAS ASSOCIATION OF SCHOOL BOARDS TASB, BOARD OF DIRECTORS FOR REGION 10, POSITION A.

THE BOARD MAY BUT IS NOT NECESSARILY REQUIRED TO ENDORSE ANY OF THE CANDIDATES LISTED HERE THAT ARE TRYING TO BECOME ENDORSED BY US.

I WILL OPEN THE FLOOR TO ANY TRUSTEE THAT WOULD LIKE TO MOVE THAT THE BOARD ENDORSE ANY ONE OF THESE CANDIDATES.

AS A REMINDER, WE MUST HAVE A MOTION ON THE TABLE AND A SECOND PRIOR TO DISCUSSION AND WE WILL HANDLE ANY MOTIONS IN THE ORDER THAT THEY ARE MADE.

IF A MOTION TO ENDORSE A CANDIDATE RECEIVES MAJORITY APPROVAL, THE BOARD WILL THEN ENDORSE THAT CANDIDATE AND NO FURTHER MOTIONS TO ENDORSE WILL BE ENTERTAINED.

TO TRANSLATE THAT, IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION FOR ONE OF THESE TRUSTEES AND THEN IT IS SECONDED, THEN WE CAN HAVE DISCUSSION AT THAT POINT.

IF SOMEBODY WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION FOR A DIFFERENT TRUSTEE FOR ENDORSEMENT, YOU CAN ALSO DO THAT AT THAT TIME AND THEN WE WILL CALL FOR A SECOND.

I WILL NOW ENTERTAIN MOTIONS TO ENDORSE CANDIDATES FOR TEXAS ASSOCIATION AND SCHOOL BOARD TASB, BOARD OF DIRECTORS REGION 10, POSITION A.

TRUSTEES, ARE THERE ANY MOTIONS?

>> I MOVE THAT THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES APPROVES THE ENDORSEMENT OF ROBERT SELDERS FOR TEXAS ASSOCIATION OF SCHOOL BOARDS TASB BOARD OF DIRECTORS FOR REGION 10 POSITION A.

>> IS THERE A SECOND?

>> I'LL SECOND.

>> OKAY. YES, WE CAN TAKE A SECOND MOTION.

IF YOU'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION, IF IT'S SECONDED, WE CAN DISCUSS BOTH MOTIONS AND THEN WE VOTE IN ORDER THAT THE MOTIONS WE RECEIVE LIKE WHEN THERE ARE CONTESTED BOARD OFFICER POSITIONS SIMILAR TO THAT.

TARRAH, YOU MADE THAT MOTION, KATHERINE YOU SECONDED IT.

ARE THERE ANY FURTHER MOTIONS AT THIS TIME? WE HAVE ONE MOTION ON THE BOARD FOR ENDORSEMENT FOR ROBERT SELDERS.

>> I MOVE THAT THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES APPROVES THE ENDORSEMENT OF NICOLE BENTLEY FROM COPPELL ISD FOR THE TEXAS ASSOCIATION OF SCHOOL BOARDS, TASB, BOARD OF DIRECTORS, REGION 10, POSITION A.

>> IS THERE A SECOND?

>> I'LL SECOND.

>> OKAY.

>> TRUSTEES, ANY MORE MOTIONS?

>> I HAVE A MOTION BY BOARD SECRETARY TARA LANCE AND A SECOND BY BOARD TRUSTEE KATHERINE GOODWIN.

THAT THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES APPROVES THE ENDORSEMENT OF ROBERT SELDERS AS CANDIDATE FOR TEXAS ASSOCIATION OF SCHOOL BOARDS TASB BOARD OF DIRECTORS FOR REGION 10, POSITION A. I ALSO HAVE A MOTION BY BOARD VICE PRESIDENT NANCY HUMPHREY WITH A SECOND BY KATHERINE GOODWIN THAT THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES APPROVES THE ENDORSEMENT OF NICOLE BENTLEY AS THE CANDIDATE FOR TEXAS ASSOCIATION OF SCHOOL BOARDS TASB BOARD OF DIRECTORS FOR REGION 10, POSITION A.

TRUSTEES, IS THERE FURTHER DISCUSSION?

>> WELL, I JUST WANTED TO SAY THAT I'VE MET ROBERT A COUPLE OF TIMES.

HE IS THE BOARD PRESIDENT FOR GARLAND ISD.

I HAVE KNOWN HIM TO BE IN THOSE BRIEF MEETINGS AS WE GET TO KNOW OTHER TRUSTEES ACROSS THE STATE AND THE DIFFERENT ASSOCIATION MEETINGS THAT WE GO TO.

I HAVE KNOWN HIM TO BE HONEST, FAIR, LIABLE, AND WHAT HE SENT US; THE LETTER, ALONG WITH HIS QUALIFICATIONS AND FURTHER ENDORSEMENTS FROM OTHER TRUSTEES, I FEEL LIKE IT WOULD BE GREAT FOR US TO ENDORSE HIM AND I KNOW THAT YOU ALL HAVE THAT INFORMATION IN FRONT OF YOU.

>> I WILL SAY THAT ROBERT IS AN AMAZING BOARD MEMBER AS WELL.

I ALSO KNOW NICOLE.

I TEXTED WITH HER LAST NIGHT AND SHE DID EMAIL ME HER QUALIFICATIONS, BUT IT WASN'T UNTIL LIKE AFTER MIDNIGHT.

SHE HAD LET ME KNOW THAT SHE ALSO SUPPORTS ROBERT.

IT'S A REALLY DIFFICULT DECISION.

BOTH CANDIDATES ARE AMAZING AND WOULD DO A GREAT JOB IN POSITION A.

>> WHOLEHEARTEDLY AGREE WITH YOU.

>> I'LL JUST JUST REITERATE THAT I WAS VERY IMPRESSED WITH ROBERT'S PACKAGE THAT HE PUT TOGETHER.

THIS IS A VERY PROFESSIONAL-LOOKING PACKAGE.

[00:50:03]

HE OUTLINED HIS EXPERIENCE, HE GOT PROPER ENDORSEMENTS.

I ALSO GOT AN EMAIL FROM ONE OF THE OTHER TRUSTEES LISTED WHO DID NOT SEND IT TO MY ISD EMAIL, BUT SENT IT TO MY PERSONAL EMAIL WHICH I THOUGHT WAS REALLY BIZARRE.

I DON'T KNOW HOW THEY GOT IT, BUT IN THAT CONTEXT I FEEL LIKE ROBERT HAS REALLY PUT IN ADDITIONAL WORK AND TIME TO COMMUNICATE WITH US TO DO THE WORK FOR THE ENDORSEMENT AND I THINK THAT THAT'S VALUABLE.

I THINK THAT'S WORTH SOMETHING.

>> I WAS JUST GOING TO SAY, SO THE QUESTION, WHY WOULD I SECOND ON BOTH OF THOSE? I JUST FELT THAT IT'S NECESSARY TO GIVE EQUAL OPPORTUNITY TO FOLKS WHO ARE INTERESTED IN THIS.

BUT I WILL CONCUR WITH WHAT LAUREN HAS SAID THAT I WAS PRETTY DARN IMPRESSED BY THE PACKET THAT HE PUT TOGETHER TO GIVE US ALL THIS INFORMATION.

ADDITIONALLY, THE FOLKS THAT HAVE LETTERS OF SUPPORT, ARE TRUSTEES THAT ARE REALLY WELL RESPECTED.

THAT'S WHAT REALLY PUSHED ME OVER, WHERE IT'S LIKE IF THEY WERE WILLING TO WRITE HIM A LETTER, THEN YOU HAVE TO GO WITH THAT.

>> BEING A NEW YORK BOARD MEMBER, I DON'T HAVE THE RELATIONSHIP'S INFORMATION, SO OBVIOUSLY I'M RELYING ON YOUR FEEDBACK AND EVERYTHING.

BUT ROBERT TOOK THE EFFORT TO MAKE A PACKAGE THAT WAS VERY CLEAR IN EXPLAINING WHY HE WANTS THE ROLE.

WE DIDN'T RECEIVE ANYTHING ELSE FROM ANYONE LIKE THAT, SO I'M SOLELY GOING BASED ON THAT INFORMATION.

>> THANK YOU, TRUSTEES. I THINK THAT CONCLUDES THE DISCUSSION.

WE'LL GO MOTIONS IN ORDER.

I HAVE A MOTION ON THE TABLE BY BOARD SECRETARY TARA LANCE, SECONDED BY TRUSTEE KATHERINE GOODWIN, THAT THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES APPROVES THE ENDORSEMENT OF ROBERT SELDERS AS THE CANDIDATE FOR TEXAS ASSOCIATION AND SCHOOL BOARDS, TASB BOARD OF DIRECTORS REGION10 POSITION A.

ALL THOSE IN FAVOR, PLEASE RAISE YOUR HAND.

I SEE SIX HANDS UP.

I WILL NOTE THAT TRUSTEE MICHAEL COOK HAS STEPPED AWAY FOR THE EVENING, AND SO THAT IS A 6-0 VOTE PASSED UNANIMOUSLY.

WE WILL NOT CONSIDER THE SECOND MOTION BECAUSE THE FIRST CARRIED.

WE WILL MOVE TO ITEM 8.4, CONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL OF THE ENDORSEMENT OF

[8.4 Consideration and Approval of the Endorsement of a Candidate for the Texas Association of School Boards (TASB) Board of Directors (Position B)Public attachment TASB Endorsement Form - Position B]

A CANDIDATE FOR THE TEXAS ASSOCIATION OF SCHOOL BOARDS, TASB BOARD OF DIRECTORS REGION 10 POSITION B.

YOU HAVE THE LIST IN FRONT OF YOU, TRUSTEES, AND I WILL NOW ENTERTAIN A MOTION TO ENDORSE CANDIDATE FOR THE TEXAS ASSOCIATION OF SCHOOL BOARDS, TASB BOARD OF DIRECTORS FOR REGION 10 POSITION B.

TRUSTEES, DO I HAVE A MOTION?

>> I MOVE THAT THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES APPROVE THE ENDORSEMENT OF LEE MATTHEW FOR TEXAS ASSOCIATION OF SCHOOL BOARDS TASB BOARD OF DIRECTORS IN REGION 10 POSITION B.

>> SECOND.

>> THANK YOU. I HAVE A MOTION ON THE TABLE BY TRUSTEE KATHERINE GOODWIN AND A SECOND BY TRUSTEE SAM JOHNSON.

THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES APPROVES THE ENDORSEMENT OF LEE MATTHEW AS THE CANDIDATE FOR TEXAS ASSOCIATION OF SCHOOL BOARDS TASB BOARD OF DIRECTORS FOR REGION 10 POSITION B.

ARE THERE ANY OTHER MOTIONS? TRUSTEES, ARE THERE ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? I THINK IT'LL PROBABLY BE THE SIMILAR TO THE FIRST ONE, THAT WE GOT AN ENDORSEMENT FROM THE SUPERINTENDENT IN THIS CASE, AND NICE HEARTFELT LETTER.

I THINK THAT THAT GOES A LONG WAY TO BUILDING THE RELATIONSHIP WITH US.

IF THERE IS NO FURTHER DISCUSSION, I WILL CALL FOR A VOTE.

ALL IN FAVOR, PLEASE RAISE YOUR HAND.

WE HAVE SIX HANDS UP.

ONCE AGAIN, TRUSTEE MICHAEL COOK STEPPED OUT, AND SO THAT CARRIES UNANIMOUSLY 6-0.

WE WILL NOW MOVE TO REPORTS.

NOW THAT THAT CONCLUDES THE DISCUSSION AND ACTION ITEMS, WE WILL MOVE TO THE REPORT SECTION OF THE MEETING.

[9.1 Professional Learning Summer Update]

WE WILL BEGIN WITH AGENDA ITEM 9.1, REPORTS PROFESSIONAL LEARNING SUMMER UPDATE.

I WILL INVITE CRAIG MCKINNEY, DIRECTOR OF PROFESSIONAL LEARNING TO THE PODIUM TO PRESENT.

>> THANK YOU. PRESIDENT TYRA,

[00:55:04]

BOARD, DR. WILLIAMS, TRUSTEES, OUR CABINET, THANKS FOR HAVING ME HERE THIS EVENING TO TALK ABOUT THE MANY EXCITING LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES THAT HAVE HAPPENED AND THAT WILL HAPPEN THIS SUMMER THROUGHOUT THE DISTRICT.

FOR THE PL TEAM, THE SUMMER IS OUR BUSY SEASON, BECAUSE WHEN THE KIDS GO ON SUMMER BREAK, THE ADULTS HAVE TIME TO LEARN, AND IT IS OUR JOB TO BRING THAT LEARNING TO LIFE.

AT OUR TEAM PLANNING RETREAT, EARLIER IN THE SPRING, WE TOOK TIME TO CRAFT A STATEMENT OF PURPOSE, A SENTENCE THAT SUMS UP WHAT WE DO, BUT ALSO KEEPS US FOCUSED ON WHAT THE RIGHT WORK IS.

YOU'LL SEE THE RESULT ON THE SCREEN.

THE PLANO ISD PROFESSIONAL LEARNING DEPARTMENT EMPOWERS AND BUILDS CAPACITY IN PISD EMPLOYEES BY PROVIDING TRAINING, SUPPORT, AND RESOURCES THAT ENABLE TRANSFORMATIVE LEARNING AND GROWTH.

THIS INTERSECTS NICELY WITH THE DISTRICT'S VISION AS WE ARE COMMITTED TO EXCELLENCE, DEDICATED TO CARING FOR OUR EMPLOYEES, AND AS OUR DEPARTMENT'S NAME STATES, WE ARE LITERALLY POWERED BY LEARNING.

BEFORE I TALK ABOUT THE SUMMER WORK, I'D LIKE TO SHARE A FEW STATISTICS ABOUT WHAT WE'VE BEEN UP TO FOR THE PAST SCHOOL YEAR.

OUR NATIONAL BOARD COHORTS ARE GOING STRONG WITH 13 NATIONAL BOARD CERTIFIED TEACHERS AND PISD, 21 CANDIDATES CURRENTLY WORKING ON THE CERTIFICATION IN OUR TWO EXISTING COHORTS, AND TWO NEW COHORTS LAUNCHING THIS SUMMER.

THE PISD MENTORING PROGRAM SUPPORTED 836 NEW TO PLANO TEACHERS LAST YEAR.

THESE INCLUDED BEGINNING TEACHERS IN THE FIRST TWO YEARS OF THEIR CAREERS AND EXPERIENCED TEACHERS WHO WERE JOINING US FROM OTHER DISTRICTS.

THAT'S A NUMBER THAT WE HOPE TO SEE DROPPING A LITTLE BIT IN THE FUTURE AS WE TRAIN AND RETAIN MORE QUALIFIED TEACHERS.

PISD IS CLEARLY POWERED BY LEARNING.

AS A DISTRICT, WE OFFERED 2,246 PROFESSIONAL LEARNING SESSIONS FROM THE LAST DAY OF SCHOOL THROUGH THE 1 ST OF MAY THIS YEAR.

THIS NUMBER INCLUDES LEARNING ON CAMPUSES IN THE DISTRICT, AND THEN ALSO IN OUR DISTRICT DESIGN AND MONITORED VIRTUAL LEARNING COURSES.

WE ALSO HAVE A NEW PROFESSIONAL PREMIUM LIBRARY OF SELF PACED COURSES WITHIN OUR POWER SCHOOL PLATFORM.

LAST YEAR, STAFF MEMBERS COMPLETED 586 COURSES, TOTALING 2,140 HOURS OF LEARNING ON TOPICS RANGING FROM INSTRUCTIONAL PRACTICES, TO CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT, LEADERSHIP, TO WORKING WITH SPECIAL POPULATIONS.

THESE COURSES HAVE BEEN USED BY TEACHERS, PARAPROFESSIONALS, AND ADMINISTRATORS, TO SEEK LEARNING ON TOPICS OF INTEREST, BUT ALSO ON AREAS OF IDENTIFIED IMPROVEMENT NEEDS.

EMPLOYEES APPRECIATE THE FLEXIBILITY AND CONVENIENCE OF BEING ABLE TO WORK ON THESE COURSES ON THEIR OWN SCHEDULE FROM ANY LOCATION.

WE OFFERED TWO TRADE LEARNING SATURDAYS THIS YEAR, WHICH ALLOWED HUNDREDS OF STAFF TO ATTEND SESSIONS DESIGNED AND PRESENTED BY PLANO ISD EDUCATORS.

THIS YEAR, WE WERE PROUD TO OFFER 33 UNIQUE SESSIONS, MANY OF WHICH WERE PRESENTED MULTIPLE TIMES.

FINALLY, OUR PLANNERS, OUR PROFESSIONAL LEARNING AMBASSADOR NETWORK TEACHERS, LOGGED 350 TECHNOLOGY TRAININGS ON THEIR CAMPUSES.

MOST OF THOSE WERE FOCUSED ON SKYWARD IMPLEMENTATION FOR THE GRADE BOOK, BUT THEY ALSO DELIVERED LEARNING ON UNTETHERED TEACHING AND THE USE OF DIGITAL TOOLS TO ENHANCE INSTRUCTION AND ENGAGEMENT, WHICH IS A FOCUS THAT WE'RE MOVING TOWARD, HOPEFULLY MORE, IN THE UPCOMING YEAR.

THAT'S JUST TO LOOK AT A FEW OF THE NUMBERS THAT PROVIDE A SMALL GLIMPSE OF THE SCOPE OF PROFESSIONAL LEARNING THAT HAS OCCURRED LAST YEAR.

BUT WHAT I'M REALLY HERE TO TALK ABOUT THOUGH, IS WHAT'S GOING ON THIS SUMMER.

THIS IS PARTLY A PREVIEW OF UPCOMING LEARNING AND PARTLY A REVIEW OF WHAT HAS HAPPENED IN THE VERY BUSY FIRST FEW WEEKS OF THE SUMMER IN WHICH SO MUCH PROFESSIONAL LEARNING HAS ALREADY TAKEN PLACE.

I WANT TO EMPHASIZE THAT THIS OVERVIEW IS NOT A COMPREHENSIVE LIST OF ALL OF THE PROFESSIONAL LEARNING HAPPENING THIS SUMMER BECAUSE THERE'S QUITE A BIT OF LEARNING THAT'S HAPPENING IN VARIOUS ROLES, HAPPENING THROUGHOUT THE DISTRICT.

THE FIRST CATEGORY THAT I WOULD LIKE TO FOCUS ON IS OUR LEARNING FOR TEACHERS.

ANYONE WHO THINKS THAT TEACHERS HAVE SUMMER OFF TO DO NOTHING HASN'T MET A PLANO ISD EDUCATOR.

OUR TEACHERS ARE COMMITTED TO CONTINUAL IMPROVEMENT OF THEIR PRACTICE AND REMAINING CURRENT WITH THEIR LEARNING.

ONCE AGAIN, WE KICKED OFF OUR SUMMER THIS YEAR WITH SUMMER INSPIRE, WHICH IS OUR CONFERENCE STYLE LEARNING EVENT PRIMARILY FOR TEACHERS.

OVER TWO DAYS IN THE FINAL WEEK OF MAY, 985 TEACHERS ATTENDED 49 UNIQUE SESSIONS WHICH WERE FACILITATED BY DISTRICT STAFF AND CONTRACTED PRESENTERS.

FEEDBACK FROM ATTENDEES WAS OVERWHELMINGLY POSITIVE.

IT WAS REALLY NICE TO SEE THE SMILES ON THE FACES AND THE CONVERSATIONS AS THEY WERE TALKING AMONGST THEMSELVES ABOUT HOW THEY WANTED TO IMPLEMENT THAT LEARNING IN THEIR CLASSROOMS BACK IN THE FALL.

SUMMER INSPIRE COULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED WITHOUT THE MANY DEPARTMENTS WHO DELIVERED LEARNING AND ALSO ARRANGED TO HAVE PRESENTERS FROM OUTSIDE OF PISD SHARE THEIR EXPERTISE.

COMING UP IN JULY, WE WILL PARTNER WITH OUR FRIENDS IN RICHARDSON ISD TO PRESENT OUR SECOND ANNUAL VIRTUAL CONFERENCE FOR TEACHERS PURSUING NATIONAL BOARD CERTIFICATION, ACCOMPLISHED.

[01:00:04]

AROUND 30 NEW PISD CANDIDATES WILL JOIN OUR EXISTING COHORT MEMBERS AND SOME OF OUR NATIONAL BOARD CERTIFIED TEACHER MENTORS TO GET READY FOR THE NEXT ROUND OF COMPONENT SUBMISSIONS.

JUST YESTERDAY, WE KICKED OFF OUR PLANO ISD EXTERNSHIP PROGRAM.

THIS IS A PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN PROFESSIONAL LEARNING, THE EDUCATION FOUNDATION, AND NUMEROUS COMMUNITY AND INDUSTRY PARTNERS.

SEVENTEEN SECONDARY TEACHERS ARE GOING TO WORK AT 14 DIFFERENT HOST SITES WITH THE GOAL OF INCREASING THEIR UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT'S EXPECTED OF EMPLOYEES IN TODAY'S WORKPLACE, SO THAT THEY CAN BETTER PREPARE THEIR STUDENTS FOR THAT.

THE EXTERNS WILL RECONVENE IN JULY FOR A CELEBRATION LUNCHEON, WHERE THEY WILL SHARE WITH ONE ANOTHER AND WITH THEIR INDUSTRY PARTNERS, ABOUT THEIR EXPERIENCES AND WHAT THEY'RE TAKING BACK TO THEIR STUDENTS.

NEXT WEEK, THE DIGITAL LEARNING TEAM WILL BE HOSTING APPROXIMATELY 180 TEACHERS FOR THE 12TH ANNUAL EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY SUCCESS INITIATIVE OR ETSI.

THE THEME FOR THIS YEAR IS STAYING AHEAD WITH AI, AND I KNOW PARTICIPANTS ARE LOOKING FORWARD TO LEARNING ALL ABOUT USING IPADS, LAPTOPS, CHROMEBOOKS, AND BEN Q BOARDS, ALONG WITH HARNESSING THE POWER OF AI TOOLS TO ENHANCE INSTRUCTION.

WE'VE JUST FINISHED RECRUITING FOR OUR NEXT YEAR'S ASPIRING ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL ACADEMY OR AAPA.

THIS IS OUR PIPELINE PROGRAM, MOSTLY FOR TEACHERS WHO ARE LOOKING TO MOVE INTO ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL ROLES IN PLANO ISD, HOPEFULLY.

IN JULY, OUR NEW CLASS WILL SPEND A DAY TOGETHER LEARNING ABOUT LEVERAGING THEIR UNIQUE STRENGTHS TO DEVELOP LEADERSHIP SKILLS TO SET THE STAGE FOR THE MONTHLY LEARNING WE WILL DO THROUGHOUT THE SCHOOL YEAR.

FINALLY, JULY BRINGS THIS YEAR'S TEAM LEADER ACADEMY, DESIGNED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH ACADEMIC SERVICES.

THIS TWO-DAY LEARNING EXPERIENCE IS FOR ELEMENTARY AND SECONDARY TEACHERS WHO ARE NEW TO THE TEAM LEADER ROLE, AS WELL AS THOSE WANTING TO SHARPEN THEIR SKILLS.

WE CURRENTLY HAVE, OR LAST WEEK WHEN I CHECKED, WE HAD 86 REGISTERED TO ATTEND.

THE LEARNING INVOLVES A DAY OF BUILDING LEADERSHIP AND INTERPERSONAL SKILLS, FOLLOWED BY A DAY OF SESSIONS, LED BY VARIOUS DEPARTMENTS WHERE TEAM LEADERS CAN CHOOSE THEIR OWN PATHWAYS TO FILL THEIR LEADERSHIP TOOLBOXES.

TEACHERS ARE NOT THE ONLY ONES ENGAGING IN PROFESSIONAL LEARNING THIS SUMMER.

OUR CAMPUS LEADERS ARE ALSO GROWING WHILE THE KIDS ARE OUT OF SCHOOL.

LAST WEEK, PISD HOSTED ANOTHER EMPOWER CONFERENCE FOR PRINCIPALS.

A COMMITTEE COMPRISED LARGELY OF CAMPUS LEADERS WHO WORKED THROUGHOUT THE SPRING TO PROMOTE, PLAN, AND RECRUIT PRESENTERS AND SELECT SESSIONS FOR EMPOWER.

THEIR HARD WORK RESULTED IN TWO DAYS OF NON STOP LEARNING, DURING WHICH PRINCIPALS AND APS ATTENDED UP TO 11 SESSIONS, MOST OF WHICH WERE PRESENTED BY OUR OWN CAMPUS AND DISTRICT LEADERS.

EMPOWER WAS AN AMAZING EXAMPLE OF THE COLLABORATION THAT EXISTS IN OUR DISTRICT AS SO MANY OF OUR LEADERS CONTRIBUTED TO THE EVENT'S SUCCESS.

TODAY, AT LOCATIONS ALL OVER THE DISTRICT, PRINCIPALS AND APS GATHERED WITH TEAMS FROM THEIR CAMPUSES FOR THE LEAD CAMPUS TEAM SUMMIT, WHICH WAS A FIRST TIME EVENT FOR US.

IT WAS AN OPPORTUNITY TO ENGAGE IN A GUIDED WORK DAY TO DIVE DEEPLY INTO CAMPUS DATA TO CRAFT THEIR THOUGHTFUL CAMPUS IMPROVEMENT PLANS FOR NEXT YEAR.

OUR PRINCIPALS ARE ABOUT TO ENJOY A FEW WEEKS OF WELL DESERVED TIME OFF, AND WHEN THEY RETURN IN JULY, WE'LL BE READY FOR THEM WITH THE JULY LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE.

TIME FOR DIFFERENTIATED LEARNING FOR PRINCIPALS AND APS.

WE HAVE SEPARATE WELCOME BACK EVENTS FOR PRINCIPALS AND APS THIS YEAR AND A NEW ADMIN BOOT CAMP.

DEPARTMENTS FROM ACROSS THE DISTRICT WILL COLLABORATE TO PROVIDE IN PERSON AND ASYNCHRONOUS LEARNING TO MAKE SURE OUR CAMPUS LEADERS ARE READY TO BEGIN A NEW SCHOOL YEAR SUCCESSFULLY.

A MAJOR FOCUS FOR OUR DEPARTMENT IN THE UPCOMING YEAR IS ENSURING THAT OUR NEW TEACHERS ARE SUCCESSFUL AS THEY BEGIN THEIR CAREERS IN PLANO ISD.

DURING THE PAST YEAR, WE'VE SOUGHT FEEDBACK FROM NEW TEACHERS, ADMINISTRATORS, AND MENTORS TO IDENTIFY NEEDS AND GROWTH AREAS FOR OUR WORK WITH BEGINNING TEACHERS.

WE'VE INCORPORATED THAT FEEDBACK INTO OUR SUMMER LEARNING FOR MENTORS, AS WELL AS OUR PLANS FOR YEAR ROUND SUPPORT.

NEW AND RETURNING MENTORS WILL HAVE ACCESS TO A DIGITAL HUB WITH A SYLLABUS OF SUPPORT, IDEAS FOR MONTHLY CHECKPOINTS, AND UPDATED MENTOR LOGS TO RECORD INTERACTIONS WITH THEIR MENTEES.

EACH CAMPUS HAS A LEAD MENTOR, WHOSE PRIMARY PURPOSE IS A PRIMARY POINT OF CONTACT WITH OUR DEPARTMENT, AND WHO WILL MONITOR THE WORK OF ALL MENTORS ON THEIR CAMPUSES.

WE INTEND TO COLLECT DATA FROM MULTIPLE SOURCES TO HELP US EVALUATE THE WORK THAT IS BEING DONE, AS WELL AS THE PERCEPTIONS OF NEW TEACHERS ABOUT THE QUALITY OF SUPPORT THAT THEY ARE RECEIVING.

FEEDBACK FROM OUR NEW TEACHERS AND MENTORS ABOUT ONBOARDING, INDICATED THAT OUR NEW TEACHERS NEEDED A LITTLE BIT MORE TIME TO PROCESS AND APPLY THEIR LEARNING AT THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR.

THAT IN OUR WELL ATTENTIONED ATTEMPTS TO PREPARE THEM FOR ALL THINGS BACK TO SCHOOL, WE MIGHT HAVE OVERWHELMED THEM A LITTLE BIT WITH TOO MUCH LEARNING TOO SOON.

[01:05:01]

IN RESPONSE TO THIS FEEDBACK, WE HAVE MADE SOME ADJUSTMENTS TO THE SCHEDULE AND CONTENT FOR OUR BACK TO SCHOOL LEARNING FOR NEW HIRES THAT WE CALL POWER.

PLANO ONBOARDING AND WELCOME, EVERYBODY READY.

THIS SLIDE GIVES AN OVERVIEW OF THE SCHEDULE.

AS IN RECENT YEARS, TEACHERS WILL BEGIN THE FOUR DAYS OF POWER AT THEIR HOME CAMPUSES, MEETING THEIR ADMIN TEAM AND CONNECTING WITH THEIR MENTORS BEFORE ATTENDING THE AFTERNOON WELCOME EVENT AT THE ROBINSON FINE ARTS CENTER.

WE HOPE TO SEE ALL OF YOU THERE WEARING YOUR BRAND NEW PURPLE SHIRTS THAT I SAW THAT YOU RECEIVED TONIGHT.

NEW TEACHERS WILL RECEIVE THOSE ON DAY 2 WHEN THEY SHOW UP FOR A HALF DAY OF LEARNING ABOUT CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT AND PISD TECHNOLOGY BASICS FOR ALL NEW HIRES, WITH AN OPPORTUNITY TO SPEND THE REST OF THE DAY ON CAMPUSES, WORKING IN THEIR CLASSROOMS, OR ENGAGING IN ASYNCHRONOUS LEARNING, INCLUDING THE REQUIRED T TEST ORIENTATION.

ON DAY 3, OUR NEW HIRES WILL RECEIVE CONTENT SPECIFIC TRAINING FOR A FULL DAY WITH THEIR GRADE LEVELS OR CONTENT AREA TEAMS. WE HAVE WORKED TO ALIGN THE CORE LEARNING TARGETS FOR THE TEACHERS ACROSS THE GRADE LEVELS AND CONTENT AREAS SO THAT MENTORS AND ADMINISTRATORS WILL BE ABLE TO FOLLOW UP ON THE TRAINING ON CAMPUSES AS THE YEAR BEGINS.

THEN DAY 4 INVOLVES SPECIALIZED LEARNING FOR SOME GROUPS OF TEACHERS.

FOR INSTANCE, SPECIAL ED TEACHERS HAVE SOME EXTENSIVE DOCUMENTATION TRAINING THAT THEY NEED BEFORE SCHOOL STARTS.

THE SPECIALIZED CONTENT WILL HAPPEN, BUT WE'LL ALSO HAVE OPPORTUNITIES FOR NEW HIRES TO VISIT MODEL CLASSROOMS WHERE THEY CAN VIEW SOME LEARNING SPACES APPROPRIATE TO THEIR GRADE LEVELS AND CONTENT AREAS.

WE WILL HOST A HALF DAY OF LEARNING SPECIFICALLY FOR OUR FIRST YEAR TEACHERS.

THIS IS THE KICKOFF TO PLANO NEW TEACHER UNIVERSITY OR PNTU.

WE HAVE SO MANY ACRONYMS. PNTU IS LAUNCHING THIS YEAR AS A WAY TO PROVIDE EARLY CAREER TEACHERS WITH WHAT THEY NEED IN THE FIRST YEAR OF TEACHING.

THIS LEARNING IS BEING DESIGNED AND DELIVERED BY PROFESSIONAL LEARNING, THE TEACHING AND LEARNING DEPARTMENTS, AND OTHER STAKEHOLDERS.

PNTU WILL INVOLVE TWO PULL OUT DAYS IN THE FALL WHEN WE KNOW TEACHERS NEED THE MOST SUPPORT, AND SOME VIRTUAL CHECK INS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR.

WE'LL ALSO OFFER FACE TO FACE FOLLOW UPS WITH DEPARTMENTS IN THE SPRINGTIME.

WE KNOW THAT THIS IS A MULTI PRONG EFFORT, WHICH INVOLVES A LOT OF COLLABORATION WITH DEPARTMENTS, WORKING TOGETHER, AND WE'RE REALLY EXCITED ABOUT THE COLLABORATIVE SPIRIT IN WHICH PEOPLE HAVE EMBRACED OUR NEW PNTU OPPORTUNITIES.

A FOCUS IN OUR AREA OF PILLAR 3 OF OUR STRATEGIC PLAN, TALENT ACQUISITION SUPPORT AND GROWTH IS OUR LEADERSHIP PIPELINE.

AS I'VE ALREADY MENTIONED, WE HAVE TWO PROGRAMS LAUNCHING THIS SUMMER, TEAM LEADER ACADEMY, WHICH IS EXPANDING TO SERVE SECONDARY AS WELL AS ELEMENTARY THIS YEAR, AND OUR ASPIRING ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL ACADEMY.

STUDENT SUPPORT SERVICES HAS A NEW ADDITION TO THE PIPELINE FOR 25/26, ASPIRING SPECIAL EDUCATION LEADER ACADEMY.

THIS PROGRAM IS DESIGNED TO BUILD CAPACITY IN OUR SPECIAL EDUCATION STAFF TO PREPARE THEM TO GROW INTO LEADERSHIP ROLES.

THE ASPIRING PRINCIPAL ACADEMY, A TWO-YEAR PROGRAM FOR CURRENT APS SEEKING PRINCIPAL POSITIONS, WILL ALSO LAUNCH A NEW COHORT IN THE FALL.

BASED ON FEEDBACK FROM PARTICIPANTS, CABINET, SLI, AND OTHERS, AND ON DATA FROM OUR RECENT COHORTS, WE ARE DOING SOME REDESIGNING OF OUR EXISTING PIPELINE PROGRAMS TO TRY TO MAXIMIZE OUR DESIRED OUTCOMES IN OUR UPCOMING CLASSES.

>> NOW TO THE NECESSARY BUT UNGLAMOROUS TOPIC OF COMPLIANCE TRAINING.

EACH YEAR IN EARLY JULY, WE RELEASE THE ASSIGNMENTS FOR THE YEAR'S COMPLIANCE TRAINING VIA THE VECTOR SOLUTIONS PLATFORM.

I'M PLEASED TO SAY THAT THROUGH INTERDEPARTMENTAL COLLABORATION AND SOME SCRUTINY OF ASSIGNMENTS AND REQUIREMENTS, WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO REDUCE THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF REQUIRED TRAINING FOR OUR EMPLOYEES AS YOU CAN SEE ON THE SLIDE THERE.

WE ARE OFFERING FOUR PROFESSIONAL LEARNING TRAIT WHERE ALSO.

IN ADDITION TO REDUCING THE TIME, WE'RE ALSO GOING TO OFFER FOUR PROFESSIONAL LEARNING TRADE HOURS TO EMPLOYEES WHO COMPLETE THEIR REQUIRED TRAINING BY DECEMBER 1ST.

THIS WILL INCENTIVIZE COMPLETION OF THE HOURS, BUT ALSO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT COMPLETION OF COMPLIANCE TRAINING DOES TAKE SOME TIME AND EFFORT, AND WE WANT TO BE ABLE TO COMPENSATE THEM FOR SOME OF THAT.

SOME ADDITIONAL REQUIRED TRAINING WILL NOW BE CONDUCTED FACE TO FACE ON CAMPUSES, AND THERE WILL BE SOME ADDITIONAL ASYNCHRONOUS TRAINING REQUIRED FOR SPECIFIC ROLES.

THE REQUIRED CYBERSECURITY TRAINING WILL AGAIN BE ADMINISTERED SEPARATELY VIA A PLATFORM OUTSIDE OF VECTOR.

THIS FINAL CONTENT SLIDE GIVES YOU A LOOK AHEAD AT SOME OF THE DISTRICT PROFESSIONAL LEARNING PRIORITIES FOR THE UPCOMING SCHOOL YEAR.

WE WILL CONTINUE A DISTRICT WIDE FOCUS ON STRENGTHENING PLCS.

THE WORK WILL INVOLVE ENSURING SYSTEMS ARE IN PLACE AT EVERY CAMPUS FOR PLCS AND ALSO USING DATA TO MONITOR INSTRUCTION AND MAKE RESPONSIVE ADJUSTMENTS.

INSTRUCTIONALLY, WE WILL FOCUS ON PURPOSEFUL INTEGRATION OF TECHNOLOGY INTO CURRICULUM AND INSTRUCTION.

WE WILL CONTINUE OUR LEARNING AROUND PSYOP STRATEGIES THAT ALLOW

[01:10:01]

OUR EMERGENT BILINGUAL STUDENTS TO ACQUIRE BOTH CONTENT AND LANGUAGE SKILLS.

TO CREATE CLASSROOM ENVIRONMENTS AND SCHOOL WIDE ENVIRONMENTS CONDUCIVE TO LEARNING, WE WILL CONTINUE TO FOCUS ON PBIS AND STOIC.

WE ARE TAKING A DEEP DIVE INTO MATH INSTRUCTIONAL PRACTICES TO INCREASE RIGOR, CLOSE GAPS, AND ENSURE ENGAGING MATH INSTRUCTION FOR ALL STUDENTS.

OUR CCMR FOCUS CONTINUES WITH ATTENTION TO ON-TRACK COLLEGE READINESS AT ALL LEVELS AND CCMR PATHWAYS FOR ALL SECONDARY STUDENTS.

THE COUNSELING DEPARTMENT IS WORKING ON THE MULTI YEAR DISTRICT WIDE ROLLOUT OF REQUIRED YOUTH MENTAL FIRST AID TRAINING, STARTING THIS SUMMER WITH ALL 9TH-12TH GRADE TEACHERS, AND PLANS ARE IN PLACE TO EXPAND THAT TO OTHER GRADE LEVELS IN THE UPCOMING YEARS TO MEET THE COMPLIANCE REQUIREMENT.

AS I MENTIONED EARLIER, WE INTEND TO SUPPORT OUR EARLY CAREER TEACHERS WITH PLANO NEW TEACHER UNIVERSITY AND USE DATA TO EVALUATE OUR ONGOING SUPPORT OF THESE TEACHERS WITH IMPROVED MENTOR TRACKING AND MORE FREQUENT COLLECTION OF FEEDBACK FROM OUR NOVICE TEACHERS.

SEVERAL WEEKS AGO, YOU HEARD A REPORT ABOUT OUR PLANO CODE OF CIVILITY, LAUNCHING THIS YEAR, AND WE'RE EXCITED TO HAVE THIS FRAMEWORK THAT PROMOTES CIVIL INTERACTIONS AND ALIGNS BEHAVIORS FOR ALL STAKEHOLDERS.

THE FINAL AREA OF FOCUS IS FURTHER BUILDING OUR LEADERSHIP PIPELINE PROGRAMS, AS I DISCUSSED EARLIER.

WE HAVE A BUSY YEAR AHEAD OF US, BUT WE HAVE A GREAT TEAM OF LEADERS ACROSS THE DISTRICT WORKING TOGETHER TO MAKE IT HAPPEN.

IN SPEAKING OF GREAT TEAMS, HERE IS MY SMALL BUT MIGHTY PROFESSIONAL LEARNING TEAM.

OUR PROFESSIONAL LEARNING COORDINATORS, KYLE FRITSCHI AND NAKENYA SNEED, ARE OUTSTANDING EDUCATORS WHO WORK TO DEVELOP SYSTEMS AND LEAD LEARNING THAT STRENGTHENS OUR EMPLOYEES AT EVERY LEVEL AND SITE.

AT THIS TIME, I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU HAVE.

>> CRAIG, THANK YOU. I'M ALWAYS TICKLED TO SEE YOU FOR REPORTS BECAUSE YOUR MOM WAS MY SECOND-GRADE TEACHER.

[LAUGHTER] I ALWAYS THINK LIKE CRAIG, AND MISS MCKINNEY, AND ELISA, AND SAM, THIS WILL HAPPEN TO YOU ALL.

AS YOU'RE AROUND LONG ENOUGH.

YOU WILL FIGURE THESE THINGS OUT.

TRUSTEES, WHAT QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS DO YOU HAVE FOR CRAIG?

>> IF YOU CAN EXPLAIN IT TOOK ME A MINUTE TO FIGURE THIS OUT.

WHAT TRADE DAYS AND HOW THAT WORKS.

>> WE HAVE BUILT INTO OUR CALENDAR TWO DAYS.

THEY FOLLOW IN DIFFERENT TIMES EVERY YEAR.

THEY'VE BEEN FALLING, AND THEY WILL CONTINUE TO FALL ON THE FIRST TWO DAYS OF THE WEEK OF THANKSGIVING.

THOSE ARE DAYS THAT ARE PAID WORK DAYS, BUT THE SCHOOLS ARE CLOSED, AND WE DON'T WORK ON THOSE DAYS.

IN TRADE FOR THOSE 15 HOURS OF WORK, TEACHERS ARE EXPECTED TO DO 15 HOURS OF PROFESSIONAL LEARNING ON THEIR OWN TIME, OUTSIDE OF THE REGULAR WORKDAY.

SOME PEOPLE WILL DO THAT DURING TRADE LEARNING SATURDAYS, DURING SUMMER INSPIRE, AFTER-SCHOOL TRAININGS, SELF PACED COURSES.

IT'S A CHANCE FOR US TO HAVE TEACHERS GROW IN THEIR AREAS OF NEED OR OF CAMPUS AND DISTRICT GOALS WHILE COMPENSATING THEM FOR THAT LEARNING.

>> GO AHEAD, DARLEN.

>> I JUST HAVE A QUICK COMMENT.

AGAIN, ABOUT THE EDUCATION FOUNDATION, I ENCOURAGE YOU ON THE PNTU. DID I GET IT RIGHT?

>> YES.

>> THE NEW TEACHER UNIVERSITY.

ON THOSE PULL OUT DAYS IN THE FALL, DEFINITELY LET THEM KNOW THAT THE CORE STORE IS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR THEM, MAYBE IF I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY NEW TEACHERS THEY'RE WILL BE.

>> WE LAST YEAR ADVERTISED THAT AT POWER AND ACTUALLY OPENED SOME SHOPPING DAYS DURING THAT FIRST WEEK OF SCHOOL.

>> VERY COOL.

>> THEY WERE ECSTATIC TO COME AND TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THAT. [OVERLAPPING]

>> I KNOW THERE'S SOME NEW THINGS THEY'RE TRYING TO PILOT.

GET WITH BRITTANY. I'LL GIVE HER MY IDEA AND WILL MAKE IT WORK.

>> AWESOME, THANKS.

>> THAT WOULD BE GOOD TO TOUCH BASE WITH THEM AFTER THEY'VE STARTED BECAUSE THEY MIGHT FORGET.

>> FOR SURE.

>> THEY'RE BOMBARDED WITH TONS OF INFO AT THE BEGINNING.

>> I HAD A QUESTION ABOUT PNTU SPECIFICALLY IS THAT ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE KEEP HEARING ABOUT EDUCATION GENERALLY IS THAT TEACHERS, EVEN IF THEY'RE COMING OUT OF A TRADITIONAL TEACHING PROGRAM, LIKE A FOUR YEAR TEACHING PROGRAM THAT MAYBE THEIR PROFESSIONAL LEARNING NEEDS TO SUPPLEMENT SOME OF WHAT'S COME OUT OF A TRADITIONAL FOUR YEAR PROGRAM AND THEN WE HAVE A LOT OF ALTERNATE CERTIFICATION PROGRAMS, AND WE HAVE A LOT OF TEACHERS BEING HIRED ON EMERGENCY PROVISIONS THAT MAY NOT BE CERTIFIED YET THAT WE'RE HELPING TO GET CERTIFIED.

HOW DOES PNTU HANDLE THAT WHEN YOU'VE GOT MAYBE DIFFERENT NEEDS BASED ON THE TEACHER CERTIFICATION SOURCE OR WHETHER THEY'RE CONTINUING TO SEEK CERTIFICATION?

>> I WON'T BE ABLE TO ANSWER IN FULL DETAIL OF THAT BECAUSE THAT'S PLANNING THAT I HAVE NOT BEEN FULLY INVOLVED IN THAT OUR COORDINATORS HAVE BEEN WORKING ON.

WE ARE DEFINITELY LOOKING AT SOME CORE THINGS THAT WE'LL BE TALKING TO SCHOOLS, WE'LL BE TALKING TO MENTORS TO GET WHAT ARE THE PRIORITY STANDARDS, I GUESS, FOR LEARNING FOR OUR TEACHERS ACROSS THE DISTRICT,

[01:15:01]

AND WE'LL BE ABLE TO ADDRESS THOSE.

THEY'LL BE SPECIFIC LEARNING FOR CONTENT AREAS.

WE WANT TO HAVE TIME FOR PEOPLE TO PULL OUT AND HAVE LEARNING WITH ACADEMIC SERVICES IN ALL THEIR DIFFERENT AREAS.

THEN I DON'T KNOW THAT THIS WILL HAPPEN FOR SURE, BUT I THINK THE PLAN IS TO HAVE SOME VIRTUAL CHOICE SESSIONS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR SO THAT IF THERE WAS AN IDENTIFIED NEED OF GROWTH OR JUST SOMEONE WANTED TO ATTEND, THEY COULD COME TO SOME OF THE EXTRA LEARNING FOR THAT.

>> AWESOME. THANK YOU.

>> WELCOME.

>> TRUSTEES, NO FURTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS? THANK YOU, CRAIG.

>> THANK YOU.

>> WE WILL NOW MOVE TO ITEM 9.2,

[9.2 College, Career and Military Readiness (CCMR) and Advanced Placement (AP) Report Part 2]

OUR NEXT REPORT ON COLLEGE CAREER AND MILITARY READINESS, CCMR, AND ADVANCED PLACEMENT, AP REPORT PART 2.

I WILL INVITE DEPUTY SUPERINTENDENT FOR TEACHING, LEARNING, AND LIFE READINESS, LISA WILSON, AND DR. KRISTEN EDEN, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR FOR COUNSELING, AND CCMR ADVANCED ACADEMICS TO PRESENT.

SIDE NOTE, THIS IS A LENGTHY PRESENTATION, AND TRUSTEES, PLEASE CONTINUE TO HOLD QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS UNTIL THE END.

>> THANK YOU, PRESIDENT TYRA, SUPERINTENDENT WILLIAMS, TRUSTEES AND CABINET, WE ARE EXCITED TO BRING PART 2 TONIGHT OF OUR CCMR REPORT.

IF YOU'LL REMEMBER A FEW MONTHS AGO, YOU HEARD QUITE A BIT FROM KEVIN MOORE THAT EVENING BECAUSE DR. EDNE WAS OUT OF TOWN, BUT WE HEARD FROM KEVIN A LITTLE BIT ABOUT OUR COLLEGE READINESS EFFORTS SO FAR THIS YEAR, REALLY TRYING TO HELP STUDENTS FIND PATHWAYS TO THAT CCMR DESIGNATION.

ADDING A BUNCH OF ADVANCED COURSE OPTIONS THAT WE'RE WORKING ON, COLLEGE PREPARATORY ACTIVITIES.

AT THE TIME, WE HAD JUST GIVEN THE TSIA, AND WE DID NOT HAVE THE FINAL DATA.

WE PROMISED YOU WE WOULD BRING THAT BACK, WHICH DR. EDNE WILL SHARE WITH YOU TONIGHT.

THEN WE WANT TO GET TO THE OTHER HALF OF THIS.

WE WANT TO LOOK AT OUR CAREER READINESS EFFORTS TONIGHT.

I'M EXCITED FOR DR. EDNE, AND IT LOOKS LIKE MAYBE KAREN BEEKMAN, YOU'RE GOING TO HEAR A LITTLE BIT ABOUT OUR CAREER EFFORTS.

>> WELL, GOOD EVENING. THANK YOU, PRESIDENT, DR. TYRA, BOARD MEMBERS, SUPERINTENDENT, DR. WILLIAMS, AND CABINET MEMBERS.

TONIGHT, CCMR PART 2 TOPICS FOCUS ON OUR CAREER READINESS, AS LISA WILSON SHARED.

AS MENTIONED, WE WILL PROVIDE AN UPDATE ALSO ON TSIA 2.0 TESTING RESULTS FOR READING AND WRITING FOR OUR 10TH-GRADE STUDENTS.

THIS WAS OUR FIRST YEAR TO TEST ALL 10TH-GRADE STUDENTS.

WE WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW HOW THAT WORKED OUT.

THE MAIN TOPIC THOUGH TODAY IS GOING TO FOCUS ON CT EFFORTS TO SUPPORT OUR STUDENTS IN BEING CAREER-READY.

WE FOCUSED ON THE COLLEGE READINESS.

NOW WE'RE GOING TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT OUR CAREER READINESS EFFORTS.

KAREN, OUR AMAZING DIRECTOR OF CTE, WILL PROVIDE YOU WITH UPDATES ON THIS YEAR'S PROGRAMS OF STUDY AND IBC RESULTS AND DISCUSS OUR EFFORTS TO EXPAND AND SUPPORT CAREER READINESS ACROSS THE DISTRICT.

WE'LL ALSO PROVIDE YOU WITH AN UPDATE ON WHERE WE CURRENTLY STAND WITH CCMR ACCOUNTABILITY FOR OUR RECENT GRADUATES, THE CLASS OF 2025.

THIS IS PRELIMINARY DATA, AND IT KEEPS CHANGING EVERY DAY.

I THINK I'M A LITTLE OBSESSED.

I KEEP GETTING ON TO SEE IT INCREASE EVERY 5, 10 TIMES A DAY.

BUT WE BELIEVE YOU WILL BE EXCITED ABOUT THE GROWTH WE ARE SEEING AT OUR CAMPUSES.

BEFORE WE DIVE INTO OUR CAREER READINESS TOPICS, I WANT TO PROVIDE A QUICK UPDATE ON OUR EFFORTS TO EXPAND AND SUPPORT COLLEGE ASSESSMENTS.

LAST APRIL, WE SHARED DURING OUR BOARD PRESENTATION, OR KEVIN DID BECAUSE I WAS SICK, THAT WE ARE BUILDING A CCMR PIPELINE, WHICH MEANS WE ARE LOOKING FOR OPPORTUNITIES TO START EARNING CCMR CRITERIA IN EARLIER GRADES.

PROVIDING TSIA TESTING IN HIGH SCHOOL VERSUS JUSTIN SENIOR HIGH IS ONE WAY TO INCREASE CCMR MET CRITERIA IN EARLIER GRADES.

WHAT IS TSIA? THE TSIA IS TEXAS'S VERSION OF A COLLEGE ASSESSMENT KNOWN AS THE ACCUPLACER, THAT IS USED NATIONALLY BY COLLEGES.

COLLEGE BOARD, YOU PROBABLY RECOGNIZE THEM FOR SAT, ALSO PROVIDES THE ACCUPLACER ASSESSMENTS TO DETERMINE IF STUDENTS ARE READY FOR COLLEGE LEVEL COURSES.

TEXAS ENACTED THE TEXAS SUCCESS INITIATIVE, KNOWN AS TSI.

NOW THEY HAVE THE TSIA.

BUT THE TEXAS SUCCESS INITIATIVE WHICH OUTLINES THE CRITERIA FOR ELIGIBILITY TO ENROLL IN COLLEGE CLASSES.

STUDENTS MAY TAKE THE SAT, THE ACT, OR THE TSIA ASSESSMENTS, AND WHEN THEY MEET THE STATE'S BENCHMARK SCORES IN MATHEMATICS AND READING AND WRITING, THEY MAY QUALIFY TO ENROLL DIRECTLY INTO COLLEGE COURSES.

HOWEVER, IF THEY DO NOT MEET THE STATE'S BENCHMARK SCORES, THEY MUST TAKE AND PASS DEVELOPMENTAL COLLEGE COURSES, WHICH COST MONEY AND TIME WITHOUT THE BENEFIT OF EARNING COLLEGE CREDIT.

WE DON'T WANT THAT FOR ANY OF OUR STUDENTS.

EACH PLANO ISD HIGH SCHOOL AND SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL CAMPUS IS A TESTING SITE FOR TSIA.

[01:20:01]

HOWEVER, HISTORICALLY, WE ONLY TESTED STUDENTS WHO REQUESTED TESTING FOR DUAL CREDIT PURPOSES.

WE ARE NOW USING TSIA TESTING TO SUPPORT STUDENTS IN ACHIEVING THE STATE CCMR CRITERIA AND TO HELP THEM DEMONSTRATE COLLEGE READINESS PRIOR TO GRADUATION.

BOTTOM LINE, TSIA TESTING HELPS OPEN DOORS OF OPPORTUNITY FOR OUR STUDENTS WHEN THEY MEET THE TEXAS COLLEGE-READY BENCHMARKS.

AS I STATED, WE HAVE PROVIDED TSIA TESTING TO STUDENTS IN 10TH GRADE FOR MANY YEARS DUE TO STUDENT INTEREST IN TAKING DUAL CREDIT CLASSES IN 11TH GRADE.

HOWEVER, THE TESTING WAS TYPICALLY CONDUCTED ON WEEKENDS AND AT A COST FOR STUDENTS.

THIS IS THE FIRST YEAR.

WE PROVIDED TSIA TESTING TO ALL 10TH GRADERS DURING THE SCHOOL DAY AND AT NO COST TO THE STUDENTS.

TO SUPPORT THIS DISTRICT WIDE INITIATIVE, ADVANCED ACADEMICS PROVIDED CAMPUS TRAINING TO STAFF AND RESOURCES TO USE WITH STUDENTS TO HELP EDUCATE THEM ABOUT THE TEST.

ADVISORIES WERE USED TO PROVIDE INFORMATIONAL PRESENTATIONS AND TO HELP STUDENTS KNOW HOW TO PREPARE FOR THE TSIA, READING, WRITING, AND ESA TESTS.

WHY IS EARLIER TSIA TESTING IMPORTANT? WELL, LAST SUMMER, TEXAS CHANGED THE LAW FOR DUAL CREDIT CRITERIA.

STAR SCORES ARE NO LONGER ACCEPTED FOR DUAL CREDIT, AND THIS COMING YEAR, PSAT MAY NOT BE ACCEPTED BY COLLIN COLLEGE TO GET INTO DUAL CREDIT COURSES.

EARLIER AND DISTRICT WIDE TSIA TESTING IS THE BEST MEANS TO SUPPORT STUDENTS WHO ARE INTERESTED IN PURSUING DUAL CREDIT, AND IT HELPS WITH MEETING CCMR CRITERIA.

TWO GREAT BENEFITS.

ADDITIONALLY, THE TSIA PROVIDES DIAGNOSTIC REPORTS THAT CAMPUSES CAN USE TO HELP PINPOINT SKILLS GAPS AND THEREFORE PROVIDE EARLIER INTERVENTIONS FOR STUDENTS WHO NEED THIS.

AS PART OF OUR PROCESS IMPROVEMENTS, WE ARE COLLABORATING WITH SECONDARY ACADEMIC SERVICES ON HOW TO EMBED PRACTICE INTO EARLIER GRADES.

THE RESULTS. THIS SPRING WAS OUR FIRST TIME TO TEST ALL 10TH GRADE STUDENTS USING THE TSIA READING, WRITING, AND SA ASSESSMENTS.

WE DID NOT TEST ALL STUDENTS FOR MATH, AND I'LL EXPLAIN THAT IN A MINUTE.

OUR PURPOSE WAS TO CONDUCT TESTING IN EARLIER GRADES INSTEAD OF WAITING UNTIL 10TH GRADE IN ORDER TO IDENTIFY STUDENTS WHO ARE COLLEGE-READY OR WHO NEED INTERVENTIONS IN ORDER TO OVERCOME THIS HURDLE.

OUR RESULTS FROM OUR FIRST ATTEMPT AT TESTING ACROSS THE DISTRICT ARE PROVIDED ON THIS TABLE, 03,011 SOPHOMORES WERE GIVEN THE TSIA READING, WRITING, MULTIPLE CHOICE TEST, 01,439 MET THE STATE'S BENCHMARK SCORE, WHICH EQUATES TO 48% OF OUR 10TH GRADERS, 02,375 OR 49% OF THE SOPHOMORES COMPLETED THE TSIA SA, AND 1,168 MET THE BENCHMARK SCORE.

NINE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-FIVE, WHICH IS 39% OF THE STUDENTS WHO TOOK BOTH ASSESSMENTS MET THE BENCHMARK FOR BOTH.

WHAT WERE OUR KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS FIRST TIME TESTING ALL 10TH GRADE STUDENTS WITH TSIA? WE CAN MAKE AN EVEN BIGGER IMPACT IF WE INVEST IN EMBEDDING TSIA PRACTICE INTO THE CURRICULUM AND IF WE PROVIDE INTERVENTION AND PREPARATION TIME PRIOR TO TESTING.

THESE ARE SOME OF THE THINGS WHEN WE DUG INTO THE DATA, 494 STUDENTS WERE ONE POINT AWAY FROM MEETING THE BENCHMARK ON THE READING AND WRITING TEST.

WE COULD POTENTIALLY SEE A 65% SUCCESS RATE IF WE CREATE A MORE ROBUST TSIA TESTING SUPPORT SYSTEM.

PART OF MY INFORMATION FELL OFF, BUT THEY ALSO HAD APPROXIMATELY 400-500 STUDENTS WHO ARE ONE POINT AWAY FROM MEETING THE BENCHMARK ON THE ESSAY AS WELL.

BY JUST ADDING MORE PREPARATION, SUPPORTING STUDENTS, EDUCATING THE PARENTS, THE STUDENTS, THE STAFF, HAVING A LONGER RUNWAY TO GET THAT IN PLACE, WE'RE ANTICIPATING INCREDIBLE RESULTS.

WHAT ARE OUR NEXT STEPS? WELL, WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO COLLABORATE WITH SECONDARY ACADEMIC SERVICES ON CURRICULUM ALIGNMENT TO COLLEGE READINESS.

IT'S GOING TO BE REALLY IMPORTANT THAT WE GO INTO THE TIER 1 INSTRUCTION AND HELP SUPPORT STUDENTS IN LEARNING THESE SKILLS, IDENTIFYING THESE SKILLS, UNDERSTANDING ABOUT THE TEST SO THAT THEY CAN MEET THAT BENCHMARK.

WE'RE ALSO GOING TO BUILD INTERNAL CAPACITY WITHIN OUR OWN ENGLISH AND MATH TEACHERS ACROSS THE DISTRICT.

WE STARTED THIS PROCESS LAST SUMMER, WE'RE CONTINUING AGAIN THIS SUMMER, WHERE WE HAVE AN ENGLISH MATH AND WE'RE ADDING AVID TEACHER WHO ARE INVITED TO BE TRAINED BY THE PRINCETON REVIEW, WHERE THEY BECOME EXPERTS ON THE PSAT, TSIA, THEY'RE GOING TO BE IN HOUSE CAMPUS EXPERTS AT THEIR CAMPUS.

ALL SIX HIGH SCHOOLS, ACADEMY HIGH SCHOOL, AND THE THREE SENIOR HIGHS WILL HAVE IN HOUSE EXPERTISE TO HELP BUILD THE CAPACITY WITHIN

[01:25:02]

THEIR OWN TEACHERS THAT THEY WORK WITH AND COLLABORATE WITH.

WE'RE GOING TO TRAIN TEACHERS ON HOW TO USE THE DIAGNOSTICS REPORTS SO THAT WE CAN SUPPORT STUDENTS WITH INTERVENTIONS IN EARLIER GRADES.

THEN, FOCUS ON IDENTIFYING AND DEVELOPING MATH OVERLAY OR INTERVENTION PATHWAYS.

I MENTIONED EARLIER, WE TESTED ALL 10TH GRADERS FOR THE READING, WRITING, AND THE ESSAY.

WE DID NOT DO THAT WITH MATH.

WE HAD ONLY THE STUDENTS WHO WANTED TO BE IN DUAL CREDIT MATH THAT WERE TESTED.

WE WANT TO FIND A PATHWAY WHERE WE'RE GOING IN AND SUPPORTING KIDS WITHIN ALGEBRA 2, MATH MODELS, DIFFERENT CLASSES, WORKING WITH THE MATH COORDINATOR AND HER TEAM TO GET THIS DONE.

THAT WAS OUR UPDATE ON THE TSIA TESTING.

WE'RE NOW GOING TO SWITCH OVER AND REALLY FOCUS ON CAREER READINESS, AND WHO BETTER TO HELP SHARE THE WORK THAT HAS BEEN HAPPENING IN THAT AREA THAN OUR OWN KAREN BEEKMAN, CTE DIRECTOR.

>> GOOD EVENING, I GET TO TALK ABOUT MY FAVORITE TOPIC AND IT IS CTE.

THANK YOU ALL FOR HAVING ME TONIGHT.

I'M GOING TO START WITH A LITTLE BIT OF INFORMATION BEFORE WE DIVE INTO THE DATA THAT WE HAVE BEHIND IT, BUT I JUST WANTED TO REMIND YOU THERE ARE CURRENTLY 10 CCMR INDICATORS THAT COUNT TOWARDS CCMR THROUGH A THROUGH F. THE ONE THAT WE'RE REALLY GOING TO LOOK AT TONIGHT IS THE INDUSTRY BASED CERTIFICATIONS FOR CTE.

I'M GOING TO CALL THEM IBCS PROBABLY A LITTLE BIT TONIGHT AND ALIGN PROGRAMS THE STUDY.

THAT'S THE INFORMATION THAT WE ARE GOING TO TALK ABOUT.

JUST TO REMIND YOU ALL, SOME OF THE NEW TRUSTEES MAY NOT REMEMBER THIS OR KNOW THIS INFORMATION, BUT IF YOU LOOK BACK ALL THE WAY TO 2018, WHEN WE'RE LOOKING AT THE CTE CRITERIA AND WHAT HAS CHANGED OVER TIME AND WHERE WE'RE GOING IN THIS DIRECTION IS, WE'VE SEEN QUITE A FEW CHANGES AND SO OUR TARGET HAS CHANGED, THE WAY THAT THEY HAVE DONE THINGS HAVE CHANGED AND THIS IS A BIGGER PICTURE.

BUT IF WE LOOK IN A LITTLE BIT CLOSER, THIS IS GOING TO GIVE YOU A LITTLE BIT OF INFORMATION.

THE ONE THAT YOU DON'T SEE ON HERE THAT WAS ON THE LAST SLIDE IS WHEN WE FIRST STARTED CCMR, WHEN IT STARTED WITH CTE, YOU JUST HAD TO HAVE A COHERENT SEQUENCE OF COURSES AND THOSE WERE LOCALLY IDENTIFIED.

WE COULD SAY YOU WERE INTERESTED IN ANIMAL SCIENCE TRACK.

YOU COULD IDENTIFY WHICH COURSES THOSE WERE AND THAT WAS YOUR COHERENT SEQUENCE OF COURSES AND YOU HAD YOUR 0.5 THAT YOU NEEDED FOR THAT.

THEN IT GOT A LITTLE BIT MORE DIFFICULT.

THEY SAID YOU KNOW WHAT? YOU JUST NEED TO EARN AN INDUSTRY BASED CERTIFICATION.

BUT WE ARE GOING TO HAVE THIS PRETTY LONG LIST OF CERTIFICATIONS AND SOME OF THEM ARE PRETTY EASY TO OBTAIN AND YOU JUST HAVE TO PASS THE TEST.

WE'RE LIKE, WE CAN DO THAT.

OUR KIDS ARE REALLY SUCCESSFUL AND THEN THEY DECIDED TO CHANGE THE GAME AGAIN.

WE ROLLED WITH IT.

WE LOOKED AT THEN FROM THERE, WE HAD TWO DIFFERENT CERTIFICATION LIST.

THEY ADDED IN A LIST, WHICH WE CALL OUR V3 LIST, AND WITH THAT LIST THEY WERE ADDING OR TAKING AWAY SOME OF OUR CERTIFICATIONS THAT BECAME A MADE IT A LITTLE BIT MORE DIFFICULT.

I KNOW DR. WILLIAMS TALKS ABOUT IT.

THEY TOOK AWAY THE MICROSOFT OFFICE WORD SPECIALIST, THEY TOOK AWAY THE MICROSOFT OFFICE EXCEL, WHICH WHEN WE LOOK AT THE BIG PICTURE THAT'S REALLY WHERE WE WERE GETTING THE MOST BANG FOR OUR BUCK ON CERTIFICATIONS.

THEY ALSO TOOK AWAY OSHA CERTIFICATIONS.

THOSE WERE OUR CERTIFICATIONS THAT IN SOME OTHER DISTRICTS, THEY WERE GIVING THEM TO EVERY KID IN THE SCHOOL, AND THAT'S HOW SOME CERTIFICATIONS WERE GETTING OBTAINED.

WE HAD TO LOOK AT THE CERTIFICATIONS THAT WE WERE OFFERING.

WE HAD TO ADJUST SOME OF OUR CURRICULUM AND THEN FROM THERE THEY DECIDED TO CHANGE IT AGAIN.

WE HAD TO EARN A CERTIFICATION THAT WE HAD TO EARN A CERTIFICATION AND YOU HAD TO HAVE A LEVEL 2 COURSE, WHICH I'LL EXPLAIN THAT HERE IN JUST A SECOND.

THAT WAS THE 2025 ACCOUNTABILITY AND THEN WE CAME TO THIS YEAR.

THIS YEAR WE HAD THAT THE STUDENTS HAD TO EARN AN INDUSTRY BASED CERTIFICATION AND THEY HAD TO BE WHAT WE CALL CTE CONCENTRATOR.

THAT IS TWO CLASSES FOR TWO MORE CREDITS WITHIN THE SAME PROGRAM OF STUDY.

WELL, AGAIN, WE'LL LOOK AT THAT IN A SECOND.

THAT MAKES IT, AGAIN, WE'RE TAKING ANOTHER STEP, GETTING A LITTLE BIT MORE DIFFICULT.

THEN NEXT YEAR WE WILL BE HAVING TO EARN AN INDUSTRY BASED CERTIFICATION AND BE A CTE COMPLETER,

[01:30:01]

WHICH IS THREE CLASSES FOR FOUR OR MORE CREDITS IN THE SAME PROGRAM AS STUDY, AND WE'RE GETTING A NEW LIST.

THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO COME OUT IN APRIL BUT GUESS WHAT I HAVEN'T SEEN YET? A LIST. THE FUN JUST CONTINUES.

WHATEVER THE FUN IS, WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO FORGE FORWARD AND WE'RE GOING TO JUST KEEP ON WORKING AND FIGURING OUT WHAT THE BEST PATH IS FOR OUR STUDENTS.

WHEN WE LOOK AT THIS, REALLY WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT IS, WHAT DID WE HAVE TO DO THIS YEAR WITH THE CLASS OF;25? LIKE I SAID, WE HAD CONCENTRATORS IN A CTE PROGRAM OF STUDY AND EARN INDUSTRY BASED CERTIFICATION.

THEN NEXT YEAR AND BEYOND, AS OF RIGHT NOW, WE WILL HAVE TO HAVE COMPLETERS AND A PROGRAM OF STUDY AND EARN INDUSTRY BASED CERTIFICATION.

THAT IS WHAT WE'VE BEEN TOLD IS WHAT WE WILL HAVE TO DO GOING FORWARD TO EARN THAT CCMR INDICATOR WITHIN CTE.

WHAT WE USED TO HAVE AS CTE USED TO BE THE LOWER HANGING FRUIT.

IT USED TO BE ONE OF THE EASIER CCMR INDICATORS TO GET.

NOW, WE REALLY HAVE TO HAVE A PLAN IN PLACE.

WE HAVE TO PLAN STARTING IN MIDDLE SCHOOL.

WE HAVE TO HAVE SOME GOOD ADVISING, WE HAVE TO HAVE CRUCIAL CONVERSATIONS.

WE HAVE TO CONTINUOUSLY VISIT A FOUR OR SIX YEAR PLAN WITH STUDENTS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE ARE ALIGNED TO MAKE SURE THAT THE STUDENTS ARE ON TRACK TO EARN THAT PROGRAM OF STUDY.

THEN OBVIOUSLY TO GET THAT INDUSTRY-BASED CERTIFICATION THAT COULD OR COULD NOT BE ON THE LIST BY THE TIME THAT THEY ARE A SENIOR WHEN THAT CCMR HITS.

WHEN WE TALKED ABOUT WHAT IS A CTE CONCENTRATOR, WE TALKED ABOUT IT'S A STUDENT WHO COMPLETES AND PASSES TWO OR MORE HIGH SCHOOL CTE COURSES FOR A TOTAL OF AT LEAST TWO CREDITS WITHIN THE SAME PROGRAM AS STUDY.

WE'RE GOING TO TAKE A LOOK FOR A SECOND ON WHAT THAT MEANS.

THIS IS AN EXAMPLE FOR US OF A CTE CONCENTRATOR THAT WE COULD HAVE IN PLANO ISD.

STUDENT A COMPLETES AND PASSES, THAT'S IMPORTANT FOR US, THAT THEY FOLLOW THE COURSE IN OUR CULINARY ARTS PROGRAM STUDY.

THEY COULD TAKE INTRO TO CULINARY ARTS IN 10TH GRADE, WHICH WOULD BE A LEVEL 1 COURSE FOR ONE CREDIT, AND FOOD SCIENCE IN 11TH GRADE, A LEVEL 4 COURSE FOR ONE CREDIT.

THAT GETS THEM THERE FOR THEIR TWO CLASSES FOR TWO CREDITS AND THEN JUST TO MEET THAT CCMR, THEY WOULD HAVE TO EARN THAT INDUSTRY BASED CERTIFICATION.

THAT IS OUR GOAL IS THAT THEY WOULD GET IN THOSE TWO CLASSES IF THEY WERE IN THE CLASS OF 2025 AND THAT THEY WOULD FOR THAT FOOD SCIENCE CLASS, THEY WOULD TAKE THAT PRE PROFESSIONAL CERTIFICATION IN FOOD SCIENCE, EARN THAT CERTIFICATION, AND THEY WOULD BE CCMR MET THROUGH CTE.

SOMETIMES IT GETS A LITTLE CONFUSING AND A LITTLE BIT MORE COMPLEX.

THIS IS WHERE AS A TEAM, WE TRY TO SUPPORT CAMPUSES AND THE COUNSELING STAFF, BUT THIS IS AN EXAMPLE THAT SOMETIMES WE HAVE A STUDENT IN HERE THAT IS IN MARKETING AND SALES PROGRAM OF STUDY.

THEY TAKE SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING FOR A 0.5 CREDIT AND THEN SPORTS AND ENTERTAINMENT MARKETING FOR 0.5 CREDITS.

THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF A PHONE CALL THAT I GOT THIS YEAR.

THEY SAID I TOOK TWO CLASSES.

WHY IS MY STUDENT NOT CCMR MET AND THEY'RE GOING TO TAKE A CERTIFICATION.

THEY TOOK STUKENT, WHICH BY THE WAY, IS NOT MISSPELLED.

I KNOW HOW TO SPELL STUDENT BUT STUKENT, IS A SOCIAL MEDIA MARKING? NO, I'M JUST SAYING I GET THAT ALL THE TIME.

WE ACTUALLY JOKED ABOUT IT AT A CONFERENCE THIS WEEK AND IT'S A CONVERSATION.

THEY TOOK THE TWO CLASSES BUT IT WAS NOT FOR TWO CREDIT SO THAT'S WHY A STUDENT IS NOT A CONCENTRATOR.

IT CAN GET A LITTLE BIT STICKY AND SO WE WANT TO JUST MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE EDUCATING AND MARKETING AND MAKING SURE THAT THEY TAKE THE CLASSES AND THAT THEY'RE THERE.

MOVING FORWARD, STARTING WITH NEXT YEAR, A STUDENT HAS TO TAKE THREE OR MORE HIGH SCHOOL COURSES FOR FOUR OR MORE CREDITS, INCLUDING ONE LEVEL 3 OR LEVEL 4 COURSE WITHIN THE SAME PROGRAM OF STUDY.

WHAT DOES THIS LOOK LIKE FOR US IN PLANO? WE HAVE TEACHING AND TRAINING, PRINCIPALS OF HUMAN SERVICES THAT THEY COULD TAKE AN EIGHTH GRADE, CHILD DEVELOPMENT, AND TENTH GRADE INSTRUCTIONAL PRACTICES.

THAT'S WHY WE REALLY LIKE SOME OF OUR TWO CREDIT COURSES THAT CAN HELP OUR STUDENTS OR SOME OF WHAT WE CALL OUR Q CLASSES, WHICH IS ONE CREDIT FOR A SEMESTER COURSE, AND THEN A PRACTICUM AND EDUCATION AND TRAINING.

THIS STUDENT HERE IS A CTE COMPLETER BECAUSE THEY HAVE MET THE THREE CLASSES FOR FOUR OR MORE CREDITS, ONE BEING A LEVEL THREE OR FOUR.

THEN FOR THIS STUDENT, THEY WOULD GET THE EDUCATIONAL AD ONE CERTIFICATION.

BUT THE EXTRA PIECE WITH THAT IS TO EARN THAT CERTIFICATION, THEY THEN HAVE TO GO GET A BACKGROUND CHECK AND FINGERPRINTED.

[01:35:02]

THAT IS AN EXTRA PIECE OF THAT CERTIFICATION FOR THAT STUDENT TO EARN THAT CCMR COMPONENT THROUGH THAT CTE PIECE.

THAT IS AN EXAMPLE OF WHAT WE WOULD HAVE FOR A COMPLETER STUDENT.

THERE'S ANOTHER ONE THERE THAT'S JUST IN BUSINESS MANAGEMENT.

WE HAVE THREE CREDIT.

WELL, WE HAVE 5.5 CREDITS BECAUSE CAREER PREP IS THREE, AND THEN THEY WOULD TAKE A CERTIFICATION THAT IS A LINE THERE, WHICH COULD BE ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN SMALL BUSINESS OR A MOS CERTIFICATION DEPENDING UPON THE CLASS.

THEN THIS IS ONE WHERE WE WOULD HAVE A STUDENT THAT WOULD PROBABLY HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF A PROBLEM AND NOT MEET THAT COMPLETER STATUS AND THAT'S BECAUSE THEY HAVE THREE CLASSES OR THEY HAVE FOUR CLASSES, BUT THEY DON'T HAVE IT FOR FOUR CREDITS.

EVEN IF THEY WENT IN AND TOOK THAT CERTIFIED VT ASSISTANT CERTIFICATION, THEY WOULD NOT HAVE THAT COMPLETER STATUS FOR CCMR BECAUSE THEY ARE MISSING OUT.

THAT JUST GIVES YOU A LITTLE BIT OF IDEA OF WHAT IT'S A PUZZLE, AND WE TRY TO PUT IT TOGETHER AND WE PUT IT TOGETHER FOR EVERY STUDENT.

LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT WHERE WE CURRENTLY ARE AS A DISTRICT AND BREAK IT DOWN.

WHEN WE TALK ABOUT CTE STUDENTS, WE HAVE NON CTE STUDENTS, THOSE ARE STUDENTS WHO ARE NOT ENROLLED IN CTE.

A CTE PARTICIPANT IS A STUDENT IN THE DISTRICT WHO HAS TAKEN ONE CLASS.

WE HAVE OUR CTE EXPLORERS, WHICH ARE THOSE KIDS THAT ARE TAKING ONE OR TWO CTE CLASSES BUT THEY'RE NOT ALIGNED IN A PROGRAM OF STUDY.

CONCENTRATOR, WE EXPLAINED AND THEN A COMPLETER IS WHERE WE ULTIMATELY WANT THEM GOING FOR THE CLASSES.

ON THE LEFT SIDE, AS I SAY, IT GETS MORE COMPLETE BUT HERE'S A COUPLE OF THINGS TO POINT OUT.

WE HAVE REALLY PUT SOME INTENTIONAL WORK INTO WITH THE COUNSELING DEPARTMENT AND ADVISING STUDENTS TO GET TO THAT COMPLETER STATUS.

YOU MAY NOTICE IN THAT MIDDLE SECTION THERE THAT THE CTE EXPLORERS HAVE AN UNUSUAL DIP ON THE YELLOW BAR REPRESENTING THE NINTH GRADE.

A CTE EXPLORER, LIKE I SAID, AS A STUDENT WHO'S COMPLETED TWO OR MORE HIGH SCHOOL COURSES FOR TWO OR MORE CREDITS.

THIS CURRENT YEAR IN '24-25 IS THE FIRST TIME THAT WE HAVE OFFERED SOME HIGH SCHOOL CREDIT COURSES IN MIDDLE SCHOOL.

WHAT YOU'RE SEEING HERE IS THAT WE HAVE HAD KIDS THAT HAVE TAKEN IN MIDDLE SCHOOL PRINCIPALS OF HUMAN SERVICES, FOR HIGH SCHOOL CREDIT, PRINCIPLES OF ARTS AND AV, FOR HIGH SCHOOL CREDITS IN SEVENTH OR EIGHTH GRADE.

THEN WE HAVE TAKEN THE FUNDAMENTALS OF COMPUTER SCIENCE AND PRINCIPLES OF APPLIED ENGINEERING THAT WE CURRENTLY OR WE USED TO JUST OFFER IN EIGHTH GRADE AND WE EXPANDED THAT DOWN TO SEVENTH GRADE.

WHAT YOU'RE SEEING IS THAT WE HAVE MORE STUDENTS IN THE YOUNGER GRADES THAT ARE GETTING THAT EXPLORERS AND THEY'RE MOVING UP TO THOSE HIGHER LEVELS.

BUT BECAUSE THAT NINTH GRADE CLASS DIDN'T HAVE THAT OPPORTUNITY TO TAKE THOSE CLASSES IN MIDDLE SCHOOL, THAT'S WHY YOU'RE SEEING THAT YELLOW BAR IN THE MIDDLE SO MUCH LOWER.

THE INCREASE IN OPPORTUNITIES FOR MIDDLE SCHOOLS TO EARN THAT HIGH SCHOOL CREDIT IS JUST REFLECTED THERE.

THOSE NINTH GRADE STUDENTS ARE JUST THE ONES THAT ULTIMATELY, UNFORTUNATELY MISSED OUT ON THOSE COURSES BEING OFFERED.

OUR GOAL OF OFFERING EARLIER ENTRY POINTS IS SOMETHING THAT WE WANT FOR STUDENTS BECAUSE THEY CAN START THOSE PROGRAMS OF STUDY EARLIER TO GET TO THAT PROGRAM OF STUDY AND IF THEY HAPPEN TO MAKE A CHANGE, WE CAN GET THEM TO THAT COMPLETER STATUS.

WHILE WE'RE SEEING GROWTH EVERY YEAR, WE KNOW THAT WE STILL HAVE WORK TO DO TO MOVE OUR STUDENTS TO BE THAT CONCENTRATOR AND COMPLETER STATUS.

BUT WE CAN TELL FROM THIS, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU LOOK AT YOUR CT AND CONCENTRATOR AND COMPLETER STATUS IN OUR UPPER 11TH AND 12TH GRADE, THAT WE ARE SEEING THAT GROWTH THAT IS STARTING TO WORK FROM THOSE INTENTIONAL CONVERSATIONS WITH STUDENTS.

INDUSTRY BASED CERTIFICATIONS THAT PREPARE STUDENTS FOR SUCCESS IN WORKFORCE, MILITARY, AND POST SECONDARY.

WE'RE GOING TO TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT WHAT IBC IS.

TA PUBLISHES THESE IBCS. THEY CALL FOR THEM.

THEY HAVE A CRITERIA OF SIX THINGS THAT YOU HAVE TO MEET TO HAVE IBC MEET THE LIST, IS WHAT WE CALL IT THE LIST.

WE MAKE SURE THAT WE EVALUATE THE LIST, WE COMPARE IT TO OUR CURRICULUM.

WE HAVE SOME TESTS THAT OUR TEACHERS ARE ALLOWED TO TAKE.

IF OUR TEACHERS ARE ALLOWED TO TAKE THE TEST, WE GET THEM A VOUCHER, WE MAKE SURE THEY TAKE THE TEST, SO IT ALIGNS TO OUR CURRICULUM.

IF OUR TEACHERS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO SEE THE TEST OR TAKE THE TEST, WE MAKE SURE WE GET THE BLUEPRINT AND CROSSWALK OUR CURRICULUM TO THOSE IBCS SO THAT WE GIVE OUR STUDENTS THE BEST OPPORTUNITY.

BUT WE MAKE SURE THAT WHATEVER WE DO, WE GIVE THE BEST OPPORTUNITY FOR OUR STUDENTS TO BE SUCCESSFUL ON THOSE IBCS.

A LITTLE BIT OF HISTORY, THE IBCS HAVEN'T BEEN AROUND FOREVER BUT FROM WHAT WE'VE SEEN OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS, THE NUMBERS HAVE GROWN.

SINCE STUDENTS MAY EARN MORE THAN ONE CERTIFICATION,

[01:40:01]

YOU'RE LOOKING AT TWO DIFFERENT NUMBERS HERE.

WE LOOK AT NUMBERS BY THE NUMBER OF CERTIFICATIONS THAT HAVE BEEN EARNED BUT WE ALSO LOOK AT THEM BY UNIQUE STUDENTS.

THE NUMBER OF STUDENTS WHO HAVE EARNED CERTIFICATIONS.

YOU CAN ALSO SEE WHEN WE'VE HAD NEW LISTS THAT HAVE BEEN RELEASED AND WE'VE HAD NEW LISTS THAT HAVE BEEN SUNSET.

YOU MAY SEE THAT IN 24-25, WE HAD A DIP IN THE NUMBER OF CERTIFICATIONS THAT WERE EARNED.

YOU MAY SAY, WELL, WHY DID WE HAVE SUCH A BIG DROP? IF YOU WILL NOTICE THAT IS WHEN WE LOST THE MOS CERTIFICATIONS.

WE ALSO HAD SOME CERTIFICATION, OUR CERTIFIED NURSING ASSISTANT AND OUR PATIENT CARE TECHNICIAN.

AT SOME POINT, WE WERE GIVING BOTH OF THOSE AND NOW WE ARE GIVING MORE OF THE PATIENT CARE TECHNICIAN BECAUSE THAT'S MORE OF A TRANSFERABLE CERTIFICATION THAT INDUSTRY IS ASKING FOR BECAUSE IT COMBINES THREE DIFFERENT CERTIFICATIONS AND JUST ONE.

THAT IS THAT DIP BUT THE GREAT THING IS THAT WE SAW AN INCREASE IN THE NUMBER OF STUDENTS ALMOST BY 200 THIS YEAR THAT EARNED A CERTIFICATION.

OVERALL, THE NUMBER IS DOWN BUT OUR STUDENT NUMBER IS UP AND THAT IS OUR GOALS IS THAT WE HAVE MORE STUDENTS IN THE ENDS GETTING THOSE CERTIFICATIONS.

OUR NUMBERS AREN'T DONE GROWING.

WE DO HAVE CERTIFICATIONS THAT THROUGH THE SUMMER CONTINUE TO GROW, THOSE ARE GOING TO BE OUR COSMETOLOGY.

NUMBERS, WE'VE HAD SOME KIDS THAT HAVE SAT FOR THE WRITTEN PRACTICUM, BUT THEY HAVEN'T DONE THEIR HANDS ON.

OUR EDUCATIONAL AID, OUR KIDS HAVE TO BE 18 TO GET THAT CERTIFICATION AND THEN OUR PHLEBOTOMY STUDENTS ARE STILL CONTINUING THAT AS WELL.

THAT JUST PUTS SOME NUMBERS THERE FOR YOU.

THESE ARE PROGRAMS OR STUDY THAT ARE ALIGNED TO A CURRENT INDUSTRY BASED CERTIFICATION, JUST SOMETHING TO KEEP IN MIND AS WELL, WE CANNOT PICK WHERE WE PUT THE INDUSTRY BASED CERTIFICATIONS.

TA ALSO TELLS US THIS CERTIFICATION HAS TO BE LINED TO THIS PROGRAM OF STUDY.

ENTREPRENEURSHIP, WE MAY HAVE ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND OBVIOUSLY THE ENTREPRENEURSHIP PROGRAM A STUDY AND THERE'S ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN SMALL BUSINESS CERTIFICATION.

THAT DOES NOT MEAN IF ENTREPRENEURSHIP IS IN 10 PROGRAMS OF STUDY, THAT THE ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND SMALL BUSINESS CERTIFICATION COUNTS IN ALL 10 PROGRAMS A STUDY.

TA IDENTIFIES THAT FOR US.

AGAIN, WE JUST CONTINUE TO WORK.

WE DO HAVE SOME PROGRAMS OF STUDY THAT DO NOT CURRENTLY HAVE AN ALIGN TO IBC, THE ONE YOU SEE THERE IN RED FASHION DESIGN.

TA DOESN'T HAVE ANYTHING CURRENTLY, WE ARE HOPING AND CROSSING OUR FINGERS THAT WE'RE GOING TO SEE SOMETHING ON THIS NEW LIST THAT'S BENEFICIAL BECAUSE THAT IS AN AMAZING PROGRAM THAT WE HAVE STUDENTS DOING SOME WONDERFUL THINGS.

I'VE SPENT SOME TIME IN THAT CLASSROOM THIS YEAR.

WE HAVE KIDS DOING FULL CLOTHING LINES, IT'S AMAZING.

IF YOU ALL NEED SOME COOL OUTFITS OR SOME INSPIRATION, GO FOR IT, THEY'RE DOING AMAZING THINGS OVER THERE.

ENGINEERING FOUNDATIONS, SOME OF THOSE IN BLUE, WE HAVE A PLAN IN PLACE.

FOR INSTANCE, ENGINEERING FOUNDATIONS WE'RE MOVING AWAY FROM PLTW AND ONCE WE ROLL OUT THAT NEXT LEVEL OF COURSES IN OUR OWN ENGINEERING PROGRAMS, WE'RE GOING TO ADD IN FUSION 360 IS OUR HOPE THERE'S A CERTIFICATION THERE.

OUR LAW ENFORCEMENT HAVE TEACHERS GOING IN TWO WEEKS TO GET CERTIFIED TO BE ABLE TO GIVE EMERGENCY, LIKE THE 911 OPERATOR TYPE CERTIFICATION THAT THE CITY IS BEGGING US TO GIVE BECAUSE THEY HAVE A NEED WE HAVE SOME THERE.

HEALTH INFORMATICS IS A CATCH.

THOSE STUDENTS ALSO GET NURSING SCIENCE AND HEALTH DIAGNOSTICS, SO THEY'RE GETTING A CERTIFICATION IN THE OTHER AREAS.

IT LOOKS LIKE WE DON'T HAVE A CERTIFICATION THERE BUT WE'RE CATCHING THEM IN ANOTHER AREA.

THOSE ARE JUST SOME AREAS.

>> WHAT IS OUR CURRENT PROGRESS ON THESE METRICS FOR CAREER READINESS? PROGRAMS OF STUDY PROGRESS, IBC ATTAINMENT, AND CCMR STATUS.

REALLY, WHEN WE LOOK AT THIS INFORMATION HERE, YOU'RE SEEING 2025 CTE STATUS IN THE PROGRESS.

OVER THE YEARS, THE NUMBER OF STUDENTS CLASSIFIED AS CONCENTRATORS AND COMPLETERS CONTINUES TO GROW LIKE WE TALKED ABOUT.

ASSUMING STUDENTS EARN CREDIT FOR CTE COURSES THEY TOOK IN THE SPRING SEMESTER, 69% OF THE CLASS OF 2025 WILL GRADUATE CONCENTRATORS OR COMPLETER STATUS.

REMEMBER FOR THE CLASS OF 2025, THE STUDENTS NEED TO BE A CONCENTRATOR OR COMPLETER TO EARN THAT IBC TO BE CCMR-MET.

YOU MAY NOTICE THAT THE 11TH GRADE EXPLORERS TO 12TH GRADE CONCENTRATORS, WAS NOT A BIG JUMP AS MAYBE YOU WOULD THINK.

TO BE AN EXPLORER, YOU JUST HAVE TO TAKE MORE THAN ONE COURSE, SO POSSIBLY A HALF CREDIT AND MULTIPLE PROGRAMS OF STUDY, BUT TO BE A CONCENTRATOR, YOU WOULD HAVE TO TAKE TWO COURSES FOR TWO CREDITS.

IDEALLY, WE COULD SEE SOME KIDS NEEDING 1-3 CREDITS TO REALLY JUMP FROM THE EXPLORER TO THE CONCENTRATOR, SO IT'S NOT JUST ONE GOING UP.

ON THOSE SENIORS, YOU SEE 99% PARTICIPANTS ARE HIGHER, AND THEN WE HAVE 69% AT THE CONCENTRATORS AND HIGHER, WHICH IS THE DIRECTION WE NEED TO BE GOING.

[01:45:01]

HERE WE HAVE REALLY LOOKING IN AT THAT CLASS OF 2025 INDUSTRY-BASED CERTIFICATIONS.

IT'S THE TOTAL NUMBER OF INDUSTRY-BASED CERTIFICATIONS EARNED, THE NUMBER OF STUDENTS THAT EARN THEM.

TA WANTS THEM IN THAT LEVEL 3 OR 4 CLASS, SO WE'RE SEEING A LOT OF OUR SENIORS EARNING THEM, AND THEN THE NUMBER OF CONCENTRATORS THAT EARN THEM AND THE NUMBER OF COMPLETERS.

I'M GOING TO GO THROUGH THIS PRETTY QUICK.

THIS JUST BREAKS DOWN THE NUMBER OF CERTIFICATIONS AS OF LAST WEEK, I GUESS, OF WHERE WE HAD THE TOTAL NUMBER OF CERTIFICATIONS EARNED AND HOW MANY OF THOSE WERE EARNED BY THE CLASS OF 2025 ON THERE.

WHAT STRATEGIES ARE WE DOING TO IMPLEMENT TO IMPROVE OUR OUTCOMES FOR CAREER READINESS? WE KNOW THAT WE'VE TALKED A LOT OF DATA.

NOW WHAT ARE WE DOING EACH YEAR? BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT WE CAN'T STOP.

WE'VE GOT TO CONTINUE TO GROW, WE HAVE TO CONTINUE TO PUSH STUDENTS TO THAT COMPLETER STATUS BECAUSE THAT'S A NEW DIRECTION THAT WE HAVEN'T ALWAYS HAD, INCREASING THE IBC ATTAINMENT, INCREASING THE NUMBER OF STUDENTS MEETING CCMR THROUGH CTE.

TA REVISIONS TO PROGRAMS OF STUDY AND INDUSTRY-BASED CERTIFICATION LIST, AND WE'RE CONSTANTLY REVIEWING THOSE.

WE'RE ACTUALLY LOOKING TOMORROW, MAYBE I SHOULD HAVE THOUGHT ABOUT 8:30 MEETING, BUT WE HAVE 8:30 MEETING IN THE MORNING TO LOOK AT WHAT COURSES DO WE HAVE? WHERE ARE WE PUTTING COURSES AND PROGRAMS OF STUDY? DO WE NEED TO ADJUST SOME OF THOSE? DO WE NEED TO RETHINK SOME COURSES WHERE WE HAVE THEM? WE THOUGHT BY NOW, WE WOULD HAVE THAT NEW TA LIST.

WE'RE LEARNING WE DON'T BUT WE WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE FORWARD.

LOOK AT THAT CURRICULUM AS WE HAVE OUR CURRICULUM WRITING TEAMS THIS SUMMER OFF OF THE DATA THAT WE HAVE FROM THIS LAST YEAR.

WHAT IS LABOR MARKET DATA? SOME OF THE SUPERINTENDENT ROUND TABLES HAVE BEEN REALLY GREAT TO PROVIDE SOME INSIGHT ON WHAT WE NEED AND WHERE WE GO AND WHAT CERTIFICATIONS THEY VALUE.

THEN PROPOSE, REVISE, AND SUNSET COURSES TO STREAMLINE PROGRAMS. SOMETHING THAT I SAY IS JUST MAKING SURE WE HAVE THE FUTURE NEEDS IN PLACE.

IMPLEMENT IBC OPPORTUNITIES WHERE NEEDED AND EDUCATE STUDENTS AND STAFF BECAUSE THAT'S PART OF OUR THINGS.

I TALKED ABOUT WE IMPLEMENTED SOME NEW MIDDLE SCHOOL COURSES.

WE REALLY WENT FROM FOUR MIDDLE SCHOOL COURSES FOR MIDDLE SCHOOL CREDIT, TWO FOR HIGH SCHOOL CREDIT, AND WE ARE NOW AT FIVE MIDDLE SCHOOL CLASSES FOR HIGH SCHOOL CREDIT AND ONE THAT'S STILL FOR MIDDLE SCHOOL CREDIT THERE.

WE HAVE SEEN GREAT GROWTH IN THAT.

WE HAVE SOME NEW COURSES THAT WE LOOKED AT THE HIGH SCHOOL LEVELS THAT WE'VE MOVED AROUND A LITTLE BIT, AND SOME OF THEM THAT WE USED TO OFFER FOR 10-12TH GRADE.

WHY ARE WE KEEP THE NINTH GRADERS OUT? IF TA SAYS WE CAN OFFER IT, WHAT ARE WE DOING? WE'VE ADJUSTED SOME OF THOSE EXPANDED GRADE LEVELS, AND THEN OBVIOUSLY WE'VE STARTED TO ROLL OUT SOME COURSES FOR THE CTES THEN THAT WILL ROLL INTO THAT.

TALKED ABOUT MIDDLE SCHOOL COURSES.

ADDING HIGH SCHOOL CREDIT COURSES AT MIDDLE SCHOOLS HAS BEEN FANTASTIC.

WE CAN TELL BY THE NUMBERS.

IF YOU LOOK HERE, THESE ARE SOME OF THE COURSES YOU CAN SEE OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS.

2023 IS WE REALLY HAD JUST THOSE TWO COURSES.

WE SAW A HUGE JUMP THIS LAST YEAR WHEN WE ADDED A COUPLE IN.

THEN WE STILL HAVE SEEN THAT GROWTH THIS LAST YEAR.

YOU CAN SEE WHEN WE ADD THE NEW COURSE IN.

WE SEE THAT WE HAVE A LITTLE DIP THIS YEAR BUT THAT'S BECAUSE ALL THOSE SEVENTH AND EIGHTH GRADERS THAT COULDN'T TAKE THE COURSES HAVE NOW GONE IN AND TAKEN THEM, AND WE ANTICIPATE THOSE NUMBERS LEVELING OUT OVER THE NEXT YEAR OR TWO.

BUT THAT'S REALLY PROVIDED A REALLY GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR OUR KIDS AT MIDDLE SCHOOLS TO GET THE EARLY START.

IBC CHANGES AND UPDATES.

WE'VE ADDED A FOOD SCIENCE CERTIFICATION BECAUSE OUR FOOD SCIENCE NUMBERS HAVE GROWN.

WE DON'T KNOW IF THAT WILL STAY ON THE LIST BECAUSE IT DOESN'T REALLY MEET THE NEEDS.

ELANCO VET MED, SO THE KIDS DON'T HAVE TO GET HOURS OBVIOUSLY WITH OUR TONI & GUY PROGRAM.

WE'VE HAD OUR FIRST STUDENTS GET CERTIFIED THERE AND START THAT.

THEY HAVE BEEN PRECIOUS.

THEY'VE BEEN SO NERVOUS ABOUT DOING THE CERTIFICATION AND THEY'VE DONE WONDERFUL.

WE HAVE MOVED SOME OF OUR CERTIFICATIONS.

WE WENT FROM ABOUT A 20-30% PASSING RATE ON THE ORACLE JAVA LAST YEAR, AND THIS YEAR, WE HAVE 100% PASSING RATE WITH THE CHANGE TO IT SPECIALISTS.

JUST TWEAKING SOME CERTIFICATIONS TO REALLY DOING WHAT'S BEST FOR OUR STUDENTS TO GET THAT CCMR, AND THEN OBVIOUSLY ADDING IN THE EMERGENCY DISPATCHER.

WE'VE BEEN WORKING ACTIVELY WITH ACADEMY HIGH SCHOOL TO FIND ONE THAT WORKS WITH THEM WITH SOME NEW WORK THERE AND THEN WAITING ON THE LIST.

AGAIN, I'M ALMOST DONE.

[01:50:02]

STAFF EFFORTS, CONTINUING WORKING WITH COUNSELING, MAPPING GRADUATION PLANS, COUNSELOR VISITS.

ANYTIME SOMEONE WILL LET US TALK ABOUT CTE, WE TALK ABOUT CTE.

ADMINISTRATOR TRAINING, PISD ASSISTANT PRINCIPALS.

I KNOW THAT PLANO WEST HAS ALREADY ASKED PEOPLE FROM OUR TEAM TO COME THE DAY THAT COUNSELORS COME BACK AND TALK ABOUT PROGRAMS OF STUDY.

HOW CAN WE WORK WITH VERTICAL GROUPS? WE CONSTANTLY UPDATE OUR PLACEMENTS OR OUR MENUS, WHATEVER YOU WOULD LIKE TO CALL THEM ON OUR ONE PAGER.

MAKE SURE THEY'RE IN ENGLISH AND SPANISH, BUT MAKING SURE THAT FOR STAFF, THAT ANYBODY CAN TALK ABOUT OUR PROGRAMS AND WHAT WE HAVE TO OFFER IN PLANO ISD.

THEN SCHOOL LINKS HAS BEEN A GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR OUR KIDS.

WHAT WE'VE DONE AND WE'VE WORKED WITH SCHOOL LINKS PRETTY CLOSELY IS THE INTEGRATION IS NOW THAT A STUDENT CAN GO IN AND PICK THEIR PROGRAM OF STUDY.

AGAIN, IF YOU'RE GOING TO GO IN, I USE ANIMAL SCIENCE, I KNOW, I WAS AN AG TEACHER, BUT YOU GO IN AND YOU PICK YOUR ANIMAL SCIENCE PROGRAM OF STUDY, IT AUTOMATICALLY PULLS DOWN YOUR PROGRAM OF STUDY AND ALLOWS YOU TO PICK THE COURSES IN THE PROGRAM OF STUDY, AND SO THERE'S TAKING THE GUESS WORK OUT OF, WHAT COURSES DO I HAVE TO TAKE IN THAT PROGRAM OF STUDY? THEN WE KNOW THAT THEY'RE ALIGNED THERE.

NOW, CAN THEY GO OUTSIDE OF THE PROGRAM OF STUDY AND PICK ADDITIONAL COURSES? THEY COULD, BUT IT TAKES THE GUESS WORK OUT AND WE'RE HOPING TO DO THAT FOR THOSE STUDENTS.

JUST ENSURES THAT STUDENTS PLAN AND THAT WE HAVE THAT.

FIND YOUR FUTURE CAREER FAIR WITH THE MIDDLE SCHOOLS.

WE HAVE TAKEN THAT FROM A SEVENTH GRADE OPPORTUNITY WITH OUR VIRTUAL CAREER FAIR.

WE REALLY HAVE SHUT DOWN MIDDLE SCHOOLS FOR A DAY.

WE ARE DOING THE SEVENTH GRADE CAREER FAIR.

WE ARE HAVING SOME LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES WITH SIXTH GRADES, AND THEN EIGHTH GRADERS ARE DOING THEIR PLANS.

WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE TO MOVE FORWARD AND REALLY FIND YOUR FUTURE IN PLANO FOR YOUR FUTURE? THEN MIDDLE SCHOOL AND ELEMENTARY CAREER DAYS, WE HAVE BEEN BRINGING STAFF AND STUDENTS DOWN TO DO CAREER DAYS TO TALK ABOUT WHAT IS IT LIKE TO BE IN CTE? WHAT ARE YOUR OPPORTUNITIES? WE'RE LOOKING AT DOING A PLANO FOR YOUR FUTURE EVENT ONE NIGHT IN THE FALL THIS YEAR.

THEN WITH THE COMMUNITY, INITIATED CTE, COUNSELOR AND MAS PARTNERSHIP, WE'VE DONE SOME EMERGENT BILINGUAL TOURS FOR THE COMMUNITY, WHICH HAS BEEN A GREAT OPPORTUNITY.

WE HAD A TON OF FAMILIES SHOW UP AND LEARN ABOUT OUR PROGRAMS, CTE TOURS FOR LEADERSHIP PLANO AND LEADERSHIP AMBASSADORS BECAUSE THEY ARE GREAT PEOPLE TO GO OUT AND TALK ABOUT OUR PROGRAMS. IT'S ALSO LED TO OTHER SPEAKING OPPORTUNITIES AT ROTARY AND PTAS, AND PANELS AND CLUBS AROUND THE AREA.

THEN I THINK WE'RE ALSO GOING TO DO AN EMERGENT BILINGUAL STUDENT TOUR THAT'S COMING UP AT THE BEGINNING OF THE FALL TO REALLY MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE HITTING THE SPECIAL POPULATION SO THAT THEY UNDERSTAND WHAT IS AVAILABLE. DR. EDNE.

>> THIS NUMBER CONTINUES TO CHANGE.

IF YOU LOOK, WE'RE GOING 2019-2026, THE ACCOUNTABILITY YEAR, KEEP IN MIND THIS LAGS BY ONE YEAR.

THAT 2026 ACCOUNTABILITY, THOSE ARE FOR OUR RECENT GRADUATES, THE CLASS OF 2025.

RIGHT NOW, AS OF TODAY, WE'RE SITTING AT 85% CCMR-MET.

WE STILL DO NOT HAVE OUR AP DATA.

WE'LL GET THAT IN JULY IB DATA IN JULY.

WE STILL HAVE A DUAL CREDIT THAT'S ROLLING IN.

EVERY DAY WE'RE GOING IN, SCRUBBING THE LIST, MAKING SURE THAT WE'RE ACCOUNTING FOR EVERY SINGLE KID.

CCMR IS ON OCTOPUS.

THAT'S HOW I LIKE TO DESCRIBE IT.

IT HAS ALL THESE TENTACLES AND IT'S NOT LIKE STAR, EOC, YOU KNOW WHAT YOU KNOW.

IT'S THIS, WHEREAS CCMR IS THIS.

TRYING TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE SCRUBBING ALL THE DATA FROM ALL THE DIFFERENT SOURCES, SOME ARE PIM, SOME ARE NOT PIM, SOME ARE OUTSIDE SOURCES.

WE JUST GOT TO KEEP OUR EYES ON THE PRIZE AND MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE HITTING OUR GOAL AS 100%, BUT WE'RE VERY EXCITED THAT WE'RE AT 85% AND WE'RE MOVING TOWARDS THAT 88, 89, AND HIGHER.

SUPER EXCITED ABOUT THIS. WHAT'S NEXT AS FAR AS CTE? WELL, WE'VE GOT OUR CTE BUILDING COMING.

WE'RE SUPER EXCITED ABOUT IT.

I LOVE DRIVING BY WHENEVER I GO TO ACADEMY HIGH SCHOOL OR GO TO THE ROBINSON FINE ARTS CENTER.

IT'S ALWAYS FUN TO SEE THE DIRT MOVING OVER THERE.

I KNOW SHE GETS REALLY EXCITED AND GIVES ME UPDATES.

WE'RE GOING TO EVALUATE AND IMPLEMENT STRONGER SYSTEMS TO HELP SUPPORT OUR STAFF, TRACK CTE.

RIGHT NOW WE'RE USING SCHOOL LINKS, AND Y'ALL, IT IS A GAME CHANGER.

SCHOOL LINKS BECAME OPERATIONAL IN TERMS OF CCMR TRACKING IN DECEMBER AND YOU SEE THE DIFFERENCE IT MAKES.

WHEN YOU HAVE A TRACKING DEVICE THAT IS ACCURATE AND IT IS HELPING YOU IN REAL TIME,

[01:55:05]

SEE WHERE YOU'RE GOING, IT MAKES A HUGE DIFFERENCE BECAUSE YOU KNOW WHICH KIDS YOU NEED TO INTERVENE WITH AND WHICH KIDS TO SUPPORT.

WE'RE REALLY TIGHTENING THAT UP.

WE'RE ALSO REALLY DOING A GREAT JOB OR A BETTER JOB OF TRACKING WHICH KIDS ARE IN PROCESS FOR THE PROGRAMS OF STUDY, WHICH KIDS ARE TAKING THE IBCS, REALLY TRACKING JUST LIKE WE DO WITH AP, HOW MANY KIDS ARE ENROLLED, HOW MANY KIDS ARE GOING TO TAKE THE TEST, HOW MANY KIDS DID TAKE THE TEST, AND THEN HOW MANY PASSED IT? THOSE ARE ALL GOING TO BE TIED TO T TESTS, AND THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE'RE REALLY HOLDING TIGHT ON THAT WE'VE GOT TO HAVE EXPECTATIONS IN ALL OF OUR CLASSES ACROSS THE BOARD.

WE HAVE STAAR EOC FOR REGULAR CLASSES, AP RESULTS, DUAL CREDIT, EARNING THE DUAL CREDIT AND KEEPING THAT HIGH GPA ON THE COLLEGE TRANSCRIPT, AND THEN WITH CTE, THE SAME THING.

IF THEY'RE IN THE CLASSES, COMPLETE, TAKE THE EXAM AND PASS.

TIGHTENING UP ALL OF THOSE THINGS AND THEN JUST EXPANDING OPPORTUNITIES.

EVERY YEAR, WE'RE COMING BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD AND OUR STAFF IS ALWAYS REFLECTING ON, WHAT DO WE DO WELL? WHAT DO WE NEED TO IMPROVE UPON? YOU'RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO SEE THAT JOURNEY WITH US.

>> THANK YOU, DR. EDNE, AND KAREN FOR SUCH A GREAT PRESENTATION, Y'ALL COVERED A LOT OF GROUND IN NOT THAT LONG OF A TIME.

TRUSTEES, WHAT QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS DO YOU HAVE FOR THE TEAM? I'LL START WITH NANCY'S GOT HER LIGHT ON OVER.

>> I HAVE A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS.

WHEN WILL YOU GET THE LIST? THAT'S CRAZY.

>> I WAS AT A CONFERENCE THIS WEEK AND WE WERE TOLD APRIL, AND THEN WE ACTUALLY JUST GOT A EMAIL A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO THAT SAID, WE'RE CALLING FOR ANY CERTIFICATIONS, IF YOU'D LIKE TO HAVE THEM ADDED TO THE LIST.

I WAS LIKE, I THOUGHT WE WERE ABOUT TO GET THE LIST.

I VISITED WITH SOMEONE THIS WEEK WHO'S PRETTY PLUGGED IN, AND HE DOESN'T THINK WE'LL GET THE LIST UNTIL 2026 NOW.

>> ARE WE SUPPOSED TO BE PLANNING COURSES TO OFFER TO OUR STUDENTS WITHOUT A LIST?

>> YEAH.

>> THE KIDS ARE ALREADY REGISTERED.

>> YEAH, THEY'RE REGISTERED. WE'LL FIGURE IT OUT.

THEY'LL ROLL IT IN AND OUT.

THEY'LL SEND THE LIST OUT, SO WE'LL CONTINUE WITH THE LIST.

THE ONLY THING THAT IT COULD BENEFIT IS IF THERE'S A NEW TEST ON THERE THAT'S MAYBE BETTER SUITED FOR OUR STUDENTS, WE COULD TRY IT.

>> I KNOW A FEW LEGISLATORS AND I KNOW THE LEGISLATORS OVERSEE THE AGENCIES, AND THAT WOULD INCLUDE TEA.

>> WE'RE CALLING FOR CERTIFICATIONS RIGHT NOW AND THAT WINDOW CLOSES IN A COUPLE OF WEEKS.

>> I DON'T KNOW IF THERE'S LOGIC THAT THEY HAD IN DISCONTINUING THE MICROSOFT OFFICE SUITE.

BUT WHEN I TALK TO EMPLOYERS, THEY GO, I WANT MY NEW EMPLOYEES TO KNOW HOW TO OPEN A SPREADSHEET OR I WANT MY EMPLOYEES TO BE ABLE TO WRITE A WORD DOCUMENT.

I SUPPOSE THAT WE'RE ALREADY DOING THAT IN THE CLASSES, BUT WHY DID THEY TAKE THAT CERTIFICATION AWAY?

>> I DON'T KNOW WHY THEY TOOK IT AWAY.

THEY STILL GIVE MAS EXPERT FOR WORD AND EXCEL.

TO BE HONEST, AS A DISTRICT, WE STILL ALLOW STUDENTS TO TAKE THE CERTIFICATION AND WE JUST COVER THAT COST FOR THEM BECAUSE WE THINK IT'S BENEFICIAL FOR THEM.

BUT IT WAS JUST A CERTIFICATION THAT THEY NO LONGER THOUGHT AT THAT LOWER LEVEL WAS NEEDED FOR THE LIST.

IT'S NOW THE EXPERT LEVEL, WHICH IS PRETTY DIFFICULT.

>> WELL, THAT MAKES A LITTLE MORE SENSE.

LAST THING, YOU SHOW A PICTURE OF THE CTE CENTER, YOU TALKED ABOUT THE DIRT MOVING, AND I GET EXCITED WHEN I SEE THAT EVERY TIME I'M OVER THERE.

HAVE WE GOT A DRONE THAT GOES OVER?

>> WE DO.

>> GOOD.

>> ON OUR FRIDAY CONSTRUCTION MEETINGS, WE SEE THE LATEST PICTURE OF WHAT IS GOING ON.

IT'S THE FIRST PICTURE THAT GOES UP IN THE MEETING.

THAT MAY BE ONE OF THE ONLY REASONS I GET ON THE MEETINGS ON FRIDAY, BUT I'M IN.

>> WELL, I REMEMBER WHEN WE DID SHOW AS AN EMERGENCY BUILD, BUT THEY HAD A CAMERA UP THERE AND THEY DID TIME LAPS OF PHOTOGRAPHY. IT WAS SO MUCH FUN.

>> IT'LL BE GOOD TO HAVE THEM AVAILABLE.

>> THEY HAVE SOME GUIDELINES AROUND WHEN WE CAN HAVE THE DRONE UP, BUT YES THEY'RE [OVERLAPPING].

>> THANK YOU. GREAT PRESENTATION.

>> YOU'RE SAYING 85% FOR OUR GRADUATING CLASS.

THAT'S AMAZING.

YES. [APPLAUSE] WHERE WERE WE AT LAST YEAR?

>> SEVENTY-FIVE.

>> FOR THE CLASS OF 2024, RIGHT NOW WE HAVE THE CCRM VERIFIER THAT WE'RE GOING THROUGH, AND IT'S SITTING AT 73%, BUT THERE'S A POSSIBILITY OF IT GOING UP WITH CORRECTIONS TO SOME OF OUR DATA.

[02:00:01]

>> THAT'S AMAZING. I AM SO EXCITED FOR NOT ONLY US, BUT FOR OUR KIDS.

THAT MEANS WE'RE JUST DOING A BETTER JOB AND I HAVE TOTAL SYMPATHY FOR HOW COMPLICATED.

I CANNOT IMAGINE HOW FRUSTRATING IT IS FOR OUR STUDENTS TO SAY, WELL, I DIDN'T KNOW I COULDN'T DO THAT.

I JUST CAN ONLY IMAGINE.

>> I WAS GOING TO MAKE THE SAME COMMENT AND I REALLY COMMEND YOU ALL THAT WHEN YOU GET LEMONS, YOU'RE MAKING LEMONADE AND THAT WE HAVE THIS DRAMATIC CHANGE IN THE CCMR CUT SCORE.

THERE WERE SOME CONCERNS THERE, BUT THE GOAL FOR THE DISTRICT WAS ALWAYS TO BUILD BETTER SYSTEMS AND PROGRAMS AND BUILD BETTER CTE PROGRAMS AND MAKE SURE WE'RE TRYING TO GET TO 100%.

I HAD THE SAME OBSERVATION AS KATHERINE, AND THAT IS VERY IMPRESSIVE AND AS YOU ALL ARE HAVING STUFF ROLL IN DURING THE SUMMER, THAT'S GOING TO BE GREAT TO SEE WHEN WE GET WRAPPED UP.

>> THAT'S A RIGHT WORK FOR KIDS.

>> ABSOLUTELY.

>> TRUSTEES NOT SEEING ANY MORE QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS.

THANK YOU, LADIES.

>> THANK YOU.

>> GREAT. THANKS.

>> YOU ALL HAVE A GREAT EVENING.

WE WILL MOVE ON LAST BUT NOT LEAST TO OUR FINAL REPORT,

[9.3 2022 Bond Program Update]

WHICH IS ITEM 9.3 2022 BOND PROGRAM UPDATE.

I WILL INVITE JOHNNY HILL, DEPUTY SUPERINTENDENT FOR BUSINESS AND EMPLOYEE SERVICES, AND TONY PEARSON, OUR DIRECTOR OF NEW CONSTRUCTION TO THE PODIUM TO PLEASE PRESENT.

>> THANK YOU, DR. TYRA. TONY, TAKE IT AWAY.

>> THANK YOU, JOHNNY. SUPERINTENDENT WILLIAMS, PRESIDENT TYRA, BOARD AND CABINET GOOD EVENING.

I KNOW THERE ARE TWO NEW BOARD MEMBERS.

I HAVE NOT YET HAD THE PLEASURE OF MEETING SO BRIEFLY MY NAME IS TONY PEARSON, AND I'M THE DIRECTOR OF PLANNING AND NEW CONSTRUCTION FOR OUR DISTRICT.

I OVERSEE THE BOND CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS.

OUR LAST BOND PROGRAM UPDATE WAS FEBRUARY 4TH, ABOUT HERE.

OUR PRESENTATION TONIGHT WILL HIGHLIGHT A FEW PROJECTS AND SOME OF THE KEY EVENTS AND DEVELOPMENTS THAT HAVE OCCURRED SINCE THE LAST TIME WE CONVENED.

THE FIVE PHASES WE'RE STILL TRACKING HERE ARE DESIGNATED ON THE SCREEN.

WE'RE WELL INTO PHASES 1 AND 2, AS YOU CAN SEE BY THIS LINE HERE, AND WE ARE IN THE EARLY STAGES OF PHASE 3.

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

THE NEXT COUPLE OF SLIDES PROVIDE A QUICK, EASILY DIGESTIBLE OVERVIEW OF EACH PHASE AS TO WHAT IS COMPLETE UNDER CONSTRUCTION OR IN DESIGN.

FOR PHASE 1, WE HAVE 17 ACTIVE PROJECTS DESIGNATED BY AN ORANGE SAFETY CONE.

THEY ARE IN VARIOUS STAGES OF CONSTRUCTION.

SINCE OUR LAST UPDATE IN FEBRUARY, THE DISTRICT IRRIGATION MASTER CONTROL SYSTEM HAS BEEN COMPLETED, SO THAT WILL TURN GREEN.

WE ALSO BEGAN CONSTRUCTION ON THE HAGGARD MIDDLE SCHOOL REPLACEMENT PROJECT AND THE PACKAGE 2 OF PLANO SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL'S MAJOR RENOVATION, WHICH WE'LL HAVE SOME SLIDES ON LATER IN THE PRESENTATION.

ON PHASE 2, WITH THE START OF SUMMER, THE SYSTEMS AND COMPLIANCE PROJECTS LISTED HERE HAVE ALL BEGUN IN EARNEST.

THE PLAYGROUNDS AND TRACKS, EXCEPT FOR FRANKFORD, WHICH IS IN THE CITY OF DALLAS, HAVE ALL BEGAN.

THEY BEGAN LATE LAST YEAR, SEPTEMBER AND DECEMBER, RESPECTIVELY, AND WE'LL BE WRAPPING UP WITH COMPLETION ANTICIPATED BY END OF THIS SUMMER.

THE TRANSPORTATION FUELING STATION APPROVED A CONTRACTOR MAY 20TH.

WE'LL START BEGINNING SUBMITTALS AND ORDERING OF THE LONG LEAD ITEMS LIKE THE FUEL TANKS AND CANOPIES.

THEN THE OTHERS LISTED AS IN DESIGN ARE ROUGHLY IN THE 90-95% CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS, SO THEY'LL BE GOING OUT TO BID HERE RELATIVELY SOON.

PHASE 3. PHASE 3 HAS GOT ITS OWN SLIDE ON THIS ONE.

WE'RE AGAIN IN INITIAL STAGES.

PLAYGROUNDS AND TRACKS ARE CURRENTLY BEING SURVEYED BY OUR ENGINEER WITH PLANS ON THESE EXPECTED TO BE ISSUED FOR BID LATER THIS YEAR IN COMPLETION SCHEDULED FOR SUMMER 2026.

STANTEC WAS APPROVED FOR THE HOLIFIELD SCIENCE LEARNING CENTER.

WE TOURED THE FACILITY RECENTLY WITH THEM AND WE'LL BEGIN PROGRAMMING AND DESIGN DISCUSSIONS WITH THE BUILDING USERS.

ARCHITECTS AND ENGINEERS FOR THE REMAINING PROJECTS, THOSE INSISTS IN COMPLIANCE AND THOSE HERE, WE'LL HAVE THOSE RECOMMENDED TO OUR AUGUST BOARD SO WE CAN BEGIN LINING THOSE PROJECTS OUT.

PHASE 4 AND 5 HAVE NOT CHANGED SINCE LAST TIME.

PROJECT UPDATES. GETTING INTO PROJECT UPDATES WITH THE PICTURES.

ISAACS EARLY CHILDHOOD SCHOOL IS ADDING 8,400 SQUARE FEET, WHICH INCLUDES EXPANDING THE EXISTING ACTIVITY ROOM AND PROVIDING A NEW KITCHEN DINING ROOM.

THE KITCHEN AND DINING ROOM ADDITION, AS YOU CAN SEE IN THESE PICTURES, THE CMU WALLS ARE COMPLETE.

STEEL AND EXTERIOR FRAMING IS GOING UP, AND ROOFING HAS RECENTLY BEGUN.

THE ACTIVITY ROOM SIDE, WHICH IS NOT PICTURED HERE IS AN EXPANSION OF THE EXISTING ACTIVITY ROOM, AND IT'S ADDITION, THE PIERS ARE COMPLETE, SO ARE GRADE BEAMS. WHEN SUMMER BEGAN, THEY TORE DOWN THE WALL

[02:05:01]

AND THEY'LL MAKE THEIR TIE ENDS AND POUR THE SLAB HERE IN THE NEXT WEEK OR SO.

PEARSON EARLY CHILDHOOD SCHOOL WE'RE ADDING 5,600 SQUARE FEET HERE EXPANDING THE EXISTING KITCHEN ADDING A NEW ACTIVITY ROOM.

THE EXISTING ACTIVITY ROOM WILL BE RENOVATED TO DINING.

ROOFING AT BOTH THE KITCHEN AND THE ACTIVITY ROOMS ARE COMPLETE.

MASONRY HAS BEGUN, AND INTERIOR WALLS ARE BEING DRY WALLED.

WE'RE ON SCHEDULED TO COMPLETE FIRST WEEK OF AUGUST 2025.

WILLIAMS HIGH SCHOOL, PHASE 2 RENOVATION.

THIS IS THE REST OF THE RENOVATION WORK AFTER PHASE 1 MOVED THE ADMINISTRATION SUITE TO THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE BUILDING AND DID A SPECIAL EDUCATION SUITE AND A FEW ADDITIONAL CLASSROOMS. THIS PHASE 2 RENOVATION IS THE REST OF THE PROJECT, WHERE WE ARE CURRENTLY ACTIVELY IN PHASES 2, 04, 5, AND 6, TWO BEING THE CENTRAL SPINE.

FOUR AND FIVE ARE GENERAL CLASSROOM SPACES, SOME OF THE CTE LABS AND STUFF, PHASE 6 IS OUR DINING AND OUR KITCHEN SPACE.

IN PHASE 2, THAT CENTRAL SPINE HALLWAY.

SOME OF THESE PICTURES ARE REPRESENTATIVE OF THAT.

THIS IS ABOVE THE CEILING IN THAT HALLWAY RIGHT NOW.

THIS IS THE CLEAR STORY THAT THEY'VE CREATED AND ROOFED.

THEY'LL BE BREAKING INTO THAT CONCRETE SLAB HERE OVER THE SUMMER AND OPENING THAT TO A TWO STORY VOLUME SO THAT MAIN SPINE WILL HAVE A TWO STORY SPACE WITH CLEAR STORY WINDOWS WHEN IT'S ALL SAID AND DONE.

PHASE 6, THE UNDERGROUND IS ONGOING IN THE KITCHEN WITH FRAMING GOING INTO THE CAFETERIA.

NOT PICTURED IN ONE OF THESE.

SORRY I GOT SOME PAGES HERE.

SOME CLASSROOMS IN PHASES 4 HAVE ALREADY BEEN TURNED OVER.

THIS IS ONE OF THE CLASSROOMS THAT IS CURRENTLY BEING WORKED ON.

THEY'LL LOOK TO HAVE THAT TURNED OVER BY THE END OF THE SUMMER.

REMAINING CLASSROOMS THAT WE WERE LOOKING AT, PHASES 4 AND 5, THEY'LL HAVE THAT COMPLETE BY THE SUMMER AND TURNED OVER TO THE CAMPUS FOR THEIR USE.

THEN JUST SINCE LAST TIME, JUST INCLUDED A COUPLE OF PICTURES.

I'M NOT SURE ALL OF US HAVE SEEN THE HARRY ROWLINSON NATATORIUM BEFORE.

AGAIN, THAT'S THE NATATORIUM THAT WE TOOK OVER FROM THE CITY BACK IN JANUARY.

WE'RE GOING TO BE RENOVATING THAT SPACE STARTING IN NOVEMBER.

WE'RE GOING TO BE ADDING SOME LOCKER ROOM SPACE, WE'RE GOING TO BE FLIPPING THE SIDE THAT WE'RE GOING TO BE DIVING INTO THE POOL FROM AND HOPEFULLY MAKE THAT A LOCATION FOR PLANO EAST TO USE AS THEIR SWIM GROUND.

HAGGARD MIDDLE SCHOOL. THE BOARD APPROVED THE GMP FEBRUARY 4TH AND THE CITY RELEASED THE BUILDING PERMIT MARCH 7TH.

THE PLANO SENIOR SOFTBALL FIELD WAS THE FIRST THING IN THE WAY AND WAS DEMOED STRAIGHT AWAY AS SOON AS THEY COULD.

AS SEEN IN THIS PICTURE, THE BUILDING PAD IS COMPLETE, MEANING THE NECESSARY SITE PREP WORK HAS BEEN FINISHED, CREATING A LEVELED AND COMPACTED AREA FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE NEW BUILDING.

IT WILL BE LOCATED AT THE CORNER OF INDEPENDENCE AND PARKHAVEN, AS YOU CAN SEE HERE.

INDEPENDENCE PARKHAVEN, OUR BUILDING IS RIGHT HERE WITH THIS LOCATION.

YOU CAN SEE OUR SITE IN RELATION TO THE EXISTING HAGGARD, JUST TO PUT IN PERSPECTIVE THERE.

THE EXISTING HAGGARD WILL STAY IN OPERATION UNTIL THE NEW SCHOOL IS COMPLETE.

SITE UTILITIES AS WELL AS PIERS AND GRADE BEAMS ARE CURRENTLY UNDERWAY, AND IT IS AN 18 MONTH CONSTRUCTION DURATION PROJECT THAT THE CONTRACTOR IS CONTINUALLY GOING TO WORK ON TO IMPROVE THAT SCHEDULE.

BACK TO THOSE VIEWS, THOSE THAT HAVEN'T SEEN IT, OBVIOUSLY, INDEPENDENCE PARKHAVEN, THE MAIN ENTRY SHOWN HERE, IS GOING TO BE FACING OFF PARKHAVEN.

THE LOOK DOWN INDEPENDENCE WILL LOOK LIKE THIS ONE RIGHT HERE BEING RENDERED.

PLANO SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL.

WE HAVE TWO PACKAGES ON THAT PROJECT.

IT WAS RELEASED IN TWO PACKAGES.

PACKAGE 1 IS THE BASEBALL AND SOFTBALL COMPLEX, WHICH BEGAN CONSTRUCTION IN SEPTEMBER OF LAST YEAR.

THE NEWLY TURF FIELDS, BASEBALL AND SOFTBALL, WERE TURNED OVER FOR PRACTICES ONLY IN FEBRUARY.

YOU CAN SEE A GLIMPSE OF THAT NEW TURF IN THE UPPER LEFT PHOTO.

IN THE BACKGROUND, YOU CAN SEE WHAT SOME OF THE REST OF THE PACKAGE INCLUDES, WHICH IS DUGOUT EXPANSIONS, CONCESSIONS, RESTROOMS, NEW BATTING TUNNELS.

THOSE WILL ALL BE COMPLETE MID JUNE AND THAT'LL COMPLETE PACKAGE 1.

THEY'RE CURRENTLY COMPLETING THE ROOF WORK ON BOTH OF THE DUGOUTS AND SOME OF THE MASONRY AND INTERIOR FINISHES HAVE ALSO BEGUN.

PACKAGE 2 IS THE BULK OF THE WORK, THE MAJOR RENOVATION EFFORT TO THE SCHOOL BUILDINGS PROPER, WHICH WILL HAPPEN IN PHASES FROM NOW UNTIL FEBRUARY 2029.

THE GMP FOR THIS PACKAGE WAS APPROVED MARCH 11TH.

THE FIRST PHASE HINGES AROUND ATHLETIC BUILDING E, WHICH IS LOCATED HERE.

THE CITY GAVE US A DEMO PERMIT ON BUILDING F, WHICH WAS THE EXISTING STUDENT ACTIVITY CENTER, WHICH YOU JUST SEE LITTLE DIRT REMAINS OF.

ON MARCH 25TH, WE RECEIVED THAT BUILDING F PERMIT, AND IT WAS QUICKLY TAKEN DOWN.

YOU CAN SEE THAT IT'S GONE ALONG WITH THE TENNIS COURTS, THOSE TWO GRAY AREAS THERE AND THE BAND PRACTICE FIELD THAT WAS LOCATED THERE.

ALL CLEARING THAT SIDE OUT FOR THE ADDITION TO BUILDING E. THE EXISTING BAND PRACTICE FIELD,

[02:10:01]

I'LL HAVE A PICTURE FOR THAT NEXT TIME, WILL BE LOCATED AT THE CORNER OF PARKER AND WILDCAT WAY, AND THAT HAS BEGUN AND IS EXPECTED TO BE COMPLETED BEFORE THE START OF BAND PRACTICE SEASON 2025.

WITH THIS AREA AND NOW CLEAR, THE BUILD FOR THE ATHLETIC ADDITION ONTO EXISTING BUILDING E WILL OCCUR HERE.

THAT ADDITION INCLUDES TWO NEW GYM FLOORS, THE NEW SAC, NEW STUDENT ACTIVITY CENTER, AND NEW ATHLETIC ENTRY.

THE NEW ENTRY IS SHOWN RENDERED HERE IF YOU HADN'T SEEN IT BEFORE, LIT UP AT NIGHT.

THAT'S HOW IT'LL LOOK.

ONLY RECENTLY WITHIN LAST WEEK HAS THE PERMIT FOR BUILDING E BEEN RELEASED.

I'M SORRY, I'VE LOST MY PLACE.

THEY WILL WORK ON BUILDING THIS ADDITION NOW THROUGH JULY 2026.

I'M SORRY, THE ADDITION TO BUILDING E. AS THEY ARE BUILDING A NEW ADDITION, THEY WILL ALSO BE RENOVATING EXISTING E, WHICH THEY HAVE SPLIT INTO THREE SUB-PHASES, BUILDING E BEING THE EXISTING GYMS AND LOCKER ROOMS. DURING THIS PHASE, ATHLETICS HAS TEMPORARILY MOVED FOOTBALL OFF CAMPUS TO CLARK HIGH SCHOOL, AND TENNIS IS TEMPORARILY MOVED TO VINES.

EXISTING FOOTBALL LOCKER ROOM, AND BUILDING E HAS BEEN VACATED AND ALL OF WOMEN'S LOCKER ROOMS HAVE BEEN TEMPORARY RELOCATED THERE TO THAT AREA AS THEIR SPACE IS RENOVATED.

THIS PHASE IS SCHEDULED TO BE COMPLETED BY THE END OF THE YEAR. CLARK HIGH SCHOOL.

THIS PROJECT INCLUDES STRUCTURAL REPAIRS OF THE SPECIAL EDUCATION AREA, TWO INTERIOR STAIRS, SOME SIDEWALKS AND A RAMP ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE BUILDING ALONG WITH THE REPLACEMENT OF THE SLAB AND FLOOR IN THE MAIN COMPETITION GYM.

THIS IS A LOOK AT SOME OF THE REPLACED CONCRETE SLABS.

THE REST OF THAT WORK MENTIONED WILL BE COMPLETED OVER THE SUMMER.

AGAIN, PROVIDING THE NEW GYM FLOOR WILL HELP WITH THE ATHLETIC REALIGNMENT, WHICH IS PART OF AN OVERALL DISTRICT GOAL THAT WE'RE TRYING TO ACHIEVE.

THE CAREER IN TECHNICAL EDUCATION CENTER THAT WAS MENTIONED BEFORE, THIS PICTURE BEING SHOWN IN THE PREVIOUS PRESENTATION.

THE GMP WAS APPROVED NOVEMBER 6TH.

THE PERMIT WAS RELEASED IN FEBRUARY.

SITE GRADING IS COMPLETE, AND PEERS ARE ONGOING.

THIS IS SOME OF THOSE SITE AERIALS, THE DRONES IS PHOTOGRAPHING AS WE PROCEED THROUGH THE PROGRESS OF THE PROJECT.

THAT'S BEING SHOWN ON THOSE FRIDAY MEETINGS FIRSTHAND.

AS WE'RE FLYING AROUND, YOU SEE THAT A LOT OF WORK, A LOT OF DIRT IS MOVING.

FROM THIS AERIAL VIEW, YOU START TO SEE HOW THE PIERS AND GRADE BEAMS ARE STARTING TO BE PLACED.

AGAIN, FOR ORIENTATION, THIS IS THE RACE TRACK.

YOU'VE GOT PARK, AND THEN ALMA IS JUST OFF THE SCREEN THAT YOU CAN'T SEE.

JOE'S IS THE CONTRACTOR ON THAT ONE, AND THEY'VE BEEN MOVING THROUGH PIERS PRETTY QUICK AVERAGING ALMOST 30 A DAY AND THEY'RE TOWARDS THE COMPLETION OF PIERS.

GRADE BEAM IS OBVIOUSLY UNDERWAY AS YOU CAN SEE AS THEY'RE WORKING THEIR WAY AROUND THE BUILDING.

SITE UTILITIES UNDERGROUND MEP IS BEING PLACED, GRADING AND PREP CONTINUE IN ADVANCE OF PAVING, LANDSCAPE, AND FINAL FLATWORK SCOPES.

SEVERAL PRE-CONSTRUCTION AND COORDINATION MEETINGS ARE SCHEDULED TO ALIGN TRADES AHEAD OF VERTICAL CONSTRUCTION.

WE'LL GO VERTICAL ONCE THE PAVING IS COMPLETED AROUND THE SITE, FIRE WILL LET US DO THAT.

THE FOCUS RIGHT NOW REMAINS ON WRAPPING UP FOUNDATIONAL AND UNDERGROUND WORK TO SUPPORT A SMOOTH TRANSITION INTO VERTICAL CONSTRUCTION, AND IT IS A 20 MONTH CONSTRUCTION DURATION THAT THE CONTRACTOR IS WORKING HARD TO CONTINUALLY IMPROVE UPON.

THERE ARE SOME VIEWS THERE. PLANO WEST.

THE GMP WAS APPROVED BY THE BOARD IN DECEMBER.

OVER WINTER BREAK, THE ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF MOVED ACROSS THE HALL INTO THEIR TEMPORARY LOCATIONS IN ANTICIPATION OF THE FIRST PHASE OF CONSTRUCTION BEGINNING IN FEBRUARY.

BUILDING PERMITS HAVE BEEN ISSUED AND WORK HAS STARTED FOR PHASE 1 DEMO IN BUILDING A.

THIS IS BUILDING A, AND RIGHT NOW THEIR ADMINISTRATION SUITE WAS HERE.

THEY'VE LOCATED ACROSS THE HALL TO HERE, AND THEY ARE TURNING THAT ADMINISTRATIVE SUITE INTO THE SPECIAL EDUCATION SUITE.

THE GROUNDWORK IS UNDERWAY FOR THE 12 BLOCK TENNIS COURTS LOCATED HERE, WHICH IS HERE IN THIS PHOTO RIGHT HERE.

GROUND WORK HAS ALSO BEGUN ON THE NEW TWO STORY CLASSROOM ADDITION.

WE'RE GETTING A TWO STORY CLASSROOM ADDITION AT THIS CORNER, AND THAT IS ALSO, AS YOU CAN SEE, THE SITE IS CLEARED AND THEY'RE PREPPING FOR THAT AS WELL.

THAT WORK, LET'S SEE, THAT'S AT THE CORNER OF PARKER AND WILLOW BEND.

WE'RE ON SCHEDULE WITH PHASE CONSTRUCTION THROUGH OCTOBER 2027 ON PLANO WEST.

PLANO EAST, THE GMP WAS APPROVED BY THE BOARD IN DECEMBER.

CONSTRUCTION FENCING IS UP SURROUNDING THE NEW TENNIS COURT.

THE NEW TENNIS COURT'S BEING LOCATED BACK IN THE BACK.

AS WELL AS THE AREA BEHIND THE GYM FOR THE NEW ADDITION, CONSTRUCTION STARTED IN APRIL WITH SITE DEMOLITION OF THE TENNIS COURTS AND THE INTERIOR DEMOLITION OF EXISTING BUILDING C. SOME PICTURES OF THAT.

FOR THOSE THAT HAVEN'T SEEN IT, THAT'S OUR NEW GYM ADDITION, THAT'LL BE OUR STORM SHELTER AND THE TWO NEW GYM FLOORS.

[02:15:03]

IN THIS PHOTOGRAPH HERE ON SITE, THAT'S THE TWO LOCATED BETWEEN THE SAC BUILDING, THE CURRENT STUDENT ACTIVITY CENTER, AND THE GYM AREA.

THEY'LL BE BUILDING THAT SPACE UP.

THIS IS THE AREA IN EXISTING BUILDING C THAT THEY'RE CURRENTLY WORKING IN AND RENOVATING.

THIS WORK IS ALSO IN PHASES, SCHEDULED FOR COMPLETION AT THE END OF 2026.

THE BEVERLY BOGUS PLAYGROUND REPLACEMENTS.

BOTH THE UPPER UNIT PLAYGROUNDS ARE COMPLETE AT BOTH CAMPUSES.

THE LOWER UNIT PLAYGROUND EQUIPMENT AND SHADE STRUCTURES ARE ALSO COMPLETE.

SAD IS INSTALLED WAITING FOR IT TO ROOT.

THE LOWER UNITS WILL BE READY BY START OF SCHOOL.

THESE TWO EXAMPLES ARE JUST TWO OF 11.

WE'VE GOT NINE OTHER PLAYGROUND REPLACEMENTS THAT ARE ALL SCHEDULED TO FINISH THIS SUMMER AS WELL, BOTH UPPER AND LOWER UNIT PLAYGROUNDS.

THAT'S THE LOOK AT ONE OF THOSE COMPLETED.

THE TRANSPORTATION FUELING STATION, WE ARE BUILDING A NEW FUELING STATION AT THE NORTHEAST CORNER OF CLARK STADIUM.

MDI WAS APPROVED AS THE CONTRACTOR, AS MENTIONED BEFORE ON MAY 20TH, AND THEY'LL BEGIN TO ORDER ALONG LEAD ITEMS OF THE FUEL STORAGE TANKS IN THE CANOPIES.

WE'LL TIME CONSTRUCTION SO THAT THESE FUEL STATIONS WILL BE ON OPERATION PRIOR TO US REMOVING THE EXISTING UNDERGROUND TAKES THAT ARE PART OF THE TRANSPORTATION BUILDING RENOVATION PROJECT.

SOME TRACKS. WE'RE DOING SOME TRACKS AT ALL OF OUR MIDDLE SCHOOLS, PROVIDE NEW SYNTHETIC TRACKS.

MURPHY MIDDLE SCHOOL, ITS TRACK HAS ALREADY BEEN POURED GOING IN RED.

IT'S CURRENTLY BEING STRIPED AND MARKED FOR THE LANES AND SOME OF THE OTHER MARKINGS ON THE PAVING.

HENDRICK IS JUST A LITTLE BIT BEHIND THAT.

THEY'VE COMPLETED THE CONCRETE CURB AND THEY'LL COME IN AND DO THE SUB-BASE ASPHALT, AND THEN THEY'LL OVERLAY THAT WITH THE ASPHALT.

BONSER-THOMAS, WELCOME IN ENROLLMENT CENTER.

SINCE OUR LAST UPDATE ON '24 ONSITE, THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF WORK HAPPENING.

I KNOW WE'RE NOT OPEN ON THIS PROJECT YET, BUT SINCE '24, ONCOR HAS INSTALLED THE STREET LIGHTING AT THE TURNABOUT, THE ELECTRIC CAR CHARGING STATION HAS BEEN INSTALLED FOR THE CITY OF DALLAS AS PERMIT REQUIREMENTS.

ALL SITE STRIPING HAS BEEN COMPLETED, LANDSCAPING HAS BEEN INSTALLED, ALTHOUGH WE ARE WAITING ON THE IRRIGATION METER TO BE RELEASED BY THE CITY IN ORDER TO COMPLETE THE INSTALLATION.

THE FINAL SANITARY SEWER LINES HAVE BEEN INSTALLED AND TIED INTO THE CREEK SYSTEM SEWER REMAINS, INCLUDING THE REPLACEMENT OF A MANHOLE REQUIRED BY THE PUBLIC UTILITY DEPARTMENT OF DALLAS.

FIBER LINES HAVE BEEN INSTALLED FROM OXFORD DRIVE AND MAPLESHADE DRIVE, SATISFYING OUR R PLANO ISD'S REQUIRED REDUNDANT FEEDS FROM TWO INDEPENDENT PATHWAYS.

INSIDE THE BUILDING, THE PA SYSTEM HAS BEEN INSTALLED.

THE SECURITY INTRUSION SYSTEM HAS BEEN INSTALLED AND HAS BEEN INSPECTED BY THE CITY OF DALLAS.

THE ACCESS CONTROL SYSTEM HAS BEEN INSTALLED AND INSPECTED BY THE CITY OF DALLAS FIRE DEPARTMENT.

THE FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEM HAS BEEN INSTALLED AND INSPECTED BY THE CITY OF DALLAS FIRE DEPARTMENT.

CONSTRUCTION CORES, THE KEY LOCKS HAVE BEEN REPLACED.

THEY WERE CONSTRUCTION CORES.

THEY'VE BEEN REPLACED WITH OUR PISD CORES AND KEYS.

THE 311 T PACKET.

THIS IS A SUBMITTED PACKET TO THE CITY OF DALLAS CERTIFYING THAT ALL RIGHT OF WAY WORK, INCLUDING THE PAVING, WATER, SEWER, IRRIGATION HAVE BEEN INSTALLED FOR THE CITY OF DALLAS REQUIREMENTS.

THAT HAS BEEN SUBMITTED AND GOT A NOTE FROM BRAN TODAY, OUR THIRD PARTY.

I THINK THAT IT WAS CLOSED ON FRIDAY, SO THAT HAS BEEN ACCEPTED.

NOW A FINAL PLAT FOR SIGNATURE AND NOTARIZATION WAS DELIVERED TO US LATE THIS AFTERNOON.

WE'LL SIGN THAT. THAT WILL GO OVER TO THE CITY.

ONCE THE PLAT MEMO IS RELEASED, THE CONTRACTOR CAN PICK UP THE IRRIGATION METER.

THE IRRIGATION METER GOES BACK TO THE LANDSCAPING.

ONCE THEY HAVE WATER, THEY CAN FINISH OFF THE LANDSCAPING, WHICH INCLUDES REMOVAL OF SOME DEAD TREES OR REPLACING SOME OF THE DEAD SOT AS WELL, GETTING THAT UP TO SPEED.

THEY NEED ABOUT A WEEK TO FINISH UP THAT ONCE THEY HAVE WATER TO THE SITE.

>> I THINK THE CONTRACTOR GOT HIS FIRE ALARM SUBCONTRACTOR REGISTERED NOW WITH THE CITY OF DALLAS.

HE SAID YESTERDAY, 6/9, SUPERVISOR GOT INVOLVED AND APPROVED THEIR REGISTRATION ON THE SPOT.

THEY HAVE RESUBMITTED THE RESUBMITTAL FOR APPROVAL, AND AS SOON AS THEY ARE APPROVED, THEY WILL CALL IN THE FINAL INSPECTION FOR THE FIRE ALARM.

ONCE THE FIRE ALARM IS FINAL, THEY WILL CALL IN THE BUILDING FINAL, SO THEY CAN GET THE TCO, WHICH IS THE TEMPORARY CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY.

I KNOW WE'LL HAVE QUESTIONS ON THAT LATER.

HARRINGTON ELEMENTARY SCHOOL RETROFIT.

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

THE SOUTH WING DEMOLITION.

SOUTH WING DEMOLITION HERE WAS THE FIRST PLACE TO BE ABANDONED AND STARTED.

THAT SOUTH WING DEMOLITION IS COMPLETE AND THE BUILD BACK HAS BEGUN WITH FRAMING IN WALL WOOD BLOCKING AND IN WALL ELECTRICAL ROUGH IN.

OVERHEAD MEP IS ONGOING.

WHEN SCHOOL LET OUT AND THE START OF THE SUMMER, THEY IMMEDIATELY GOT INTO THE CENTER LIBRARY AND HAD BEGUN DEMO ON THAT.

WE'VE ALSO HAD SOME JUST INTERNAL MEETINGS WITH THE LIBRARY FURNITURE SUPPLIER,

[02:20:05]

THEY'VE SEEN FINISHED COLOR PALETTE FOR THE CAMPUS AND HAVE SELECTED LIBRARY FURNITURE TO GO.

WE HAD A MASCOT MEETING THE OTHER DAY WITH STANTEC, THAT DID INTRODUCE SOME WALL GRAPHICS THAT WERE GOING ON IN THIS PROJECT.

A LOT OF WORK, AGAIN, AS WE CONTINUE TO HAVE THIS PROJECT COMPLETE INTO SUMMER AND START OF SCHOOL IN THE FALL.

SOME OF THAT BUILD BACK BEING SHOWN.

WE'RE DONE. THANK YOU. ANY QUESTIONS?

>> THANK YOU FOR THE GREAT PRESENTATION UPDATE, TONY.

TRUSTEES, QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS FOR THE TEAM?

>> YOU'RE TELLING US THAT OUR WRAP AROUND SERVICE CENTER IS GOING TO BE OPEN AND READY?

>> YES.

>> IN TIME FOR SCHOOL?

>> YES. YOU'RE SAYING IN AUGUST? YES.

>> BEFORE AUGUST.

>> NOT TO BE CAN WITH THAT.

WE'VE BEEN ASKING THE QUESTION A LOT TO A LOT OF FOLKS, AND UNFORTUNATELY, EVEN FROM THE CONTRACTOR'S MOUTH, HE'S JUST UNABLE TO GIVE ME A DATE.

HE CAN'T DEFINE A DATE.

THE BUILDING IS COMPLETE.

THE BUILDING LOOKS COMPLETE BY THOSE PHOTOS.

YOU DRIVE BY THE EXTERIOR BRICK.

IT LOOKS LIKE THIS RENDERING, THE INTERIOR IS CARPETED.

IT'S ALL FINISHED OUT. IT'S READY TO GO.

IT NEEDS THESE FINAL PIECES TO BE SIGNED OFF ON, AND IT SHOULD OPEN.

IF IT'S NOT BY THE END OF THIS MONTH, IT SHOULD NOT ENTER TOO FAR INTO JULY.

IT SHOULD BE AROUND THE CORNER IF I COULD BE MORE OBTUSE.

>> NO. I TOTALLY GET IT BECAUSE I'M THINKING THERE'S GOING TO BE SOME AMOUNT OF TIME THAT WE NEED TO GIVE THOSE FOLKS TO MOVE INTO THEIR BUILDING AND GET EVERYTHING ORGANIZED.

I GUESS THEY'RE JUST WAITING TO POUNCE ON THE BUILDING AS SOON AS.

>> YEAH. WE'VE GOT THE FURNITURE READY TO GO.

WE'VE GOT TO LEGALLY GET A TCO BEFORE WE CAN MOVE IT IN.

LIKE I TOLD DR. WILLIAMS THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS.

I THINK THAT EVERYONE INCLUDING THE CITY OF DALLAS, THE CONTRACTOR, OUR STAFF, EVERYBODY'S MOTIVATED TO GET IT ACROSS THE FINISH LINE.

I THINK WE'RE HEADING IN A GOOD DIRECTION.

I KNOW EVERYBODY'S TALKING ON A DAILY BASIS TO MAKE IT HAPPEN AND I FEEL LIKE WE'RE GETTING VERY CLOSE.

>> GO AHEAD.

>> I HOUND ON A DAILY BASIS.

>> NO. ABSOLUTELY.

>> TRUSTEES, ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS? NOW, I ALSO FREQUENTLY DRIVE BY OUR BIG CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS, AND IT IS AWESOME SEEING THAT BOND MONEY PUT TO WORK FOR OUR COMMUNITY.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE UPDATE.

THIS IS NO OFFENSE, JOHNNY, BUT THE BUDGET'S DRY.

THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST EXCITING PRESENTATIONS I FEEL LIKE WE GET ON THE REGULAR.

THANK YOU FOR THE GREAT PRESENTATION AND STICKING IT OUT FOR THE LATE NIGHT WITH US, TONY.

>> YOU BET. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. APPRECIATE IT.

>> LAST STRETCH, WE'LL MOVE TO ITEM NUMBER 10,

WHICH IS POLICIES ON OUR AGENDA.

WE WILL BEGIN WITH AGENDA ITEM 10.1 POLICIES, APPROVAL OF POLICY DBD(LOCAL) EMPLOYMENT REQUIREMENTS AND RESTRICTIONS CONFLICT OF INTEREST.

I WILL INVITE DR. SELENDA FREEMAN, DEPUTY SUPERINTENDENT FOR LEADERSHIP IN OPERATIONS TO PLEASE PRESENT.

>> THANK YOU, PRESIDENT, TYRA.

THIS POLICY IS PRESENTED FOR APPROVAL UNDER FIRST READING.

>> THANK YOU, SELENDA. WE MAY NOW CONSIDER APPROVAL OF POLICY DBD(LOCAL) EMPLOYMENT REQUIREMENTS AND RESTRICTIONS CONFLICT OF INTEREST.

TRUSTEES, IS THERE ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? I WILL JUST SAY BECAUSE WE'RE COMING TO THE END OF THE SET OF POLICIES THAT THE POLICY SUBCOMMITTEE, OF COURSE, NANCY IS ONE OF YOUR LEADERSHIP INITIATIVES, AS BOARD PRESIDENT THAT WE NOW HAVE A STANDING POLICY SUBCOMMITTEE.

THIS SET OF POLICIES ARE ONES THAT WE'VE BEEN WORKING PRETTY HEAVILY ON, AND I THINK THERE ARE A LOT OF VERY IMPORTANT THINGS,

[02:30:01]

UNDERSTANDING THE DIRECTORY INFORMATION AND UNDERSTANDING RELEASE INFORMATION AND UNDERSTANDING THEY ALL SET SOME REALLY KEY EXPECTATIONS FOR THE COMMUNITY, FOR STAFF, FOR FAMILIES AND EVERYONE ELSE.

THESE ARE SEVERAL POLICIES THAT THE BOARD POLICY SUBCOMMITTEE HAS SPENT SEVERAL HOURS ON AND TRYING TO UPDATE THESE IN A WAY THAT WE'RE HAPPY WITH.

IT'S BEEN A LOT OF DISCUSSION.

IT'S BEEN A LOT OF WORK.

BUT JUST WANTED TO THROW THAT OUT THERE THAT AS YOU ALL ARE SEEING THESE FOR THE FIRST TIME, I FEEL LIKE NANCY, TARRAH, AND I HAVE SPENT HOURS WITH DR. FREEMAN AND DR. WILLIAMS DISCUSSING THESE AND WORDSMITHING THIS HERE AND DISCUSSING THAT THERE.

THIS IS FIRST READING AS DR. FREEMAN OUTLINED, BUT JUST FOR OUR NEW TRUSTEES, THIS IS HOURS OF WORK ON ALL OF THESE POLICIES. WHAT?

>> YOU ALL SPENT HOURS. ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION?

>> I'M GOING TO SAY, THANK YOU SO MUCH.

WE APPRECIATE YOUR WORK ON THIS I WANT ANYBODY WHO'S ACTUALLY STILL LISTENING TO US AT THIS POINT IN TIME TO REALIZE THAT'S WHY WE'RE ABLE TO CLIVE SO QUICKLY.

IT'S NOT THAT WE'RE NOT PAYING ATTENTION.

IT'S JUST THAT OUR COLLEAGUES HAVE WORKED VERY HARD ON THIS AND WE WERE ABLE TO REVIEW THEM AND SO IT'S EASY FOR US TO MAKE DECISIONS ON THEM.

>> WE ALSO HAVE LEGAL REVIEW AND THEN TASB DOES A REVIEW.

AS WE'RE WORKING THROUGH THINGS, DR. FREEMAN IS THEN GOING BACK TO OUR OUTSIDE RESOURCES AND SAYING, CAN YOU ALSO REVIEW THESE AND MAKE SURE WE'RE NOT GOING TO GET SIDEWAYS WITH ANYTHING THAT'S IN LEGAL STATUTE.

I THINK THAT THAT'S A VERY WELL MET POINT.

SAM, YOU HAD YOUR MIC ON.

>> YES. I WAS JUST GOING TO SAY, I COULD TELL A LOT OF WORK WENT INTO THIS.

I READ THIS AND RE-READ IT AND HAD QUESTIONS AND READ IT AGAIN, AND I READ DOCUMENTS LIKE THIS FOR A LIVING.

IT'S CLEAR, A LOT OF THOUGHT AND A LOT OF EFFORT WENT INTO IT, AND SO I APPRECIATE ALL THE WORK THAT WENT INTO GETTING THIS DONE.

>> WELL, AS A SIDE NOTE, TRUSTEES, YOU'LL HAVE YOUR SURVEY FOR WHAT COMMITTEES YOU WOULD LIKE TO BE ON.

I'LL JUST DO A PLUG TO DO THAT TIMELY OR YOU WILL GET ASSIGNED AT MY DISCRETION, AND POLICY IS A DENSE ONE.
