with us and she's coming up to talk

24
00:02:25,46 --> 00:02:31,75
recertification So our annual
Medicaid recertification discussion

25
00:02:32,61 --> 00:02:37,89
I'll turn it over to Marty quickly
over there for the Power Point. High.

26
00:02:41,00 --> 00:02:47,17
The Medicaid corner Penfield
that's if we can. Get this.

27
00:02:49,32 --> 00:02:53,04
And I want to thank you for allowing me
to come and provide training and school

28
00:02:53,05 --> 00:02:57,82
support of Health Services Program
otherwise known as Medicaid in education.

29
00:03:00,15 --> 00:03:06,52
This is state approved program that accesses
Medicaid funds to assist schools with

30
00:03:06,89 --> 00:03:11,51
providing services to students who are
medicaid eligible there are very specific

31
00:03:11,52 --> 00:03:17,01
guidelines in place to prevent fraud or
abuse of the program all services and

32
00:03:17,02 --> 00:03:21,49
billing procedures have to comply
with federal and state guidelines.

33
00:03:24,77 --> 00:03:29,29
Our Medicaid compliance committee includes
Barbara Gregory the Medicaid Compliance

34
00:03:29,30 --> 00:03:34,54
Officer Scott drash there Bill Maloney
and myself and we meet periodically to

35
00:03:34,55 --> 00:03:39,20
review alerts establish best practices
and procedures and review our compliance

36
00:03:39,21 --> 00:03:46,03
plan. And anyone who suspects waste
fraud or abuse is obligated to

37
00:03:46,04 --> 00:03:52,31
report it these concerns may be reported
to Barbara via e-mail phone or letter.

38
00:03:53,95 --> 00:03:57,23
And also to the office of
Medicaid inspector general.

39
00:04:00,79 --> 00:04:07,26
There are ten services that are covered
under this program. And Penfield the bill

40
00:04:07,27 --> 00:04:12,28
for speech language there be physical therapy
and occupational therapy. We've made

41
00:04:12,29 --> 00:04:16,77
attempts to bill for other services
Unfortunately the guidelines were designed

42
00:04:16,78 --> 00:04:21,58
better for doctors' offices than for
school districts so we choose to avoid

43
00:04:21,59 --> 00:04:28,28
excessive data tracking requirements and
cut back at these three services. The

44
00:04:28,29 --> 00:04:32,91
first requirement is to taint a one time
written consent from the parents who made

45
00:04:32,92 --> 00:04:37,72
a conscious effort to collect these consents
some people have the mis understanding

46
00:04:37,73 --> 00:04:38,54
that if

47
00:04:38,55 --> 00:04:43,48
a school district bills for these services
they won't the student won't be able to

48
00:04:43,49 --> 00:04:48,15
benefit from other services
but that is not so they have

49
00:04:48,16 --> 00:04:52,62
a different order written to cover those
expenses so they will in that impact the

50
00:04:52,63 --> 00:04:57,34
other. Oprah is

51
00:04:57,51 --> 00:05:04,41
a quick application in which service
providers fill out to describe their intent

52
00:05:04,45 --> 00:05:08,52
to comply with the
guidelines of the program.

53
00:05:13,54 --> 00:05:16,75
If the providers must be
certified unlicensed and have

54
00:05:16,76 --> 00:05:22,56
a national provider identifier number. There
are qualified individuals with lesser

55
00:05:22,57 --> 00:05:29,28
credentials who may work under the direction
of licensed and certified provider but

56
00:05:29,29 --> 00:05:34,42
the agencies where our students are placed
on manage these documents for their

57
00:05:34,43 --> 00:05:38,82
providers and keep us informed of their
newest status and we keep track of our

58
00:05:38,83 --> 00:05:45,50
internal providers. He N.P.I.

59
00:05:45,51 --> 00:05:46,47
Number is

60
00:05:46,51 --> 00:05:53,29
a number that is used by him but entities
and it maintains privacy for the

61
00:05:53,30 --> 00:05:59,36
health care providers
and also. Is a provides

62
00:05:59,37 --> 00:06:05,67
a national database provider so that
we can keep track of who's up to date

63
00:06:06,40 --> 00:06:12,87
and what therapy they're
providing service for. There is

64
00:06:12,88 --> 00:06:19,74
a federal solution last. And
there is no. This is to

65
00:06:19,78 --> 00:06:26,52
keep up with anyone who might have
abused this process or has been

66
00:06:26,63 --> 00:06:32,43
charged with fraud and
any provider that has.

67
00:06:33,90 --> 00:06:39,88
The list is we can't bill for their service
so we have to go through it when we

68
00:06:39,89 --> 00:06:44,96
hire new people make sure they're not on
that list. From time to time check it to

69
00:06:44,97 --> 00:06:49,63
be sure our No one that is involved
with our students is on that list.

70
00:06:53,95 --> 00:07:00,69
These are all different types of issues
that might prevent claims from being

71
00:07:01,14 --> 00:07:04,42
billable and fortunately we have

72
00:07:04,43 --> 00:07:09,25
a system that also
checks things so we have

73
00:07:09,26 --> 00:07:15,08
a lot of different eyes on it and we keep
track of make sure that none of those

74
00:07:16,06 --> 00:07:22,48
problems get put through the
system. This year we did change

75
00:07:22,71 --> 00:07:29,56
our billing service bureau so
we're using frontline education

76
00:07:30,27 --> 00:07:36,64
and that occurred I fact of seven one it
allowed us to streamline our processes so

77
00:07:36,65 --> 00:07:43,51
that. Our special educators are
using just one system and all our

78
00:07:43,52 --> 00:07:48,47
agencies are just using one
system. Once we definitely made

79
00:07:48,48 --> 00:07:53,41
a decision to go with this we halted some
of the inefficient processes that were in

80
00:07:53,42 --> 00:07:54,54
place and so we did have

81
00:07:54,55 --> 00:07:59,01
a little time that we had to catch up on
that and also at the same time New York

82
00:07:59,02 --> 00:08:05,74
state change their Medicaid eligibility
service so we have to go through

83
00:08:05,75 --> 00:08:10,41
a different channel now to determine who
is eligible and who's not so these are all

84
00:08:10,42 --> 00:08:16,67
little changes that have occurred this
year but we're all underway and in motion

85
00:08:16,68 --> 00:08:23,08
and seems to be working well. That's
about all I have to give you for updates

86
00:08:23,83 --> 00:08:30,27
Does anybody have any questions you
know that are. OK So is the former.

87
00:08:31,37 --> 00:08:38,34
Or retired speech language thought just
to saw. What are the guidelines for saw

88
00:08:38,52 --> 00:08:45,16
for speech people here in the district
for the Medicaid notes. They have to

89
00:08:45,17 --> 00:08:52,07
have you would have to have your
documents in with me I would meet you

90
00:08:52,57 --> 00:08:59,42
and go over the requirements and make
sure that I have your license that you

91
00:08:59,70 --> 00:09:01,06
have the N.P.I.

92
00:09:01,23 --> 00:09:08,15
Application process that you are unrolled
in the Oprah program and as long as your

93
00:09:08,16 --> 00:09:13,95
record set up today you know we have to
know that you're not on that exclusion less

94
00:09:13,96 --> 00:09:20,39
would have to check that and then
that's all good. I just have one other

95
00:09:20,44 --> 00:09:21,72
question so it as

96
00:09:21,73 --> 00:09:28,40
a sub then. Because you know doing
I act first is when you were doing

97
00:09:29,03 --> 00:09:33,31
before right. So as the saw do I.

98
00:09:36,13 --> 00:09:42,36
Would you create an IP direct. Account
for myself you would have to because any

99
00:09:42,37 --> 00:09:49,20
notes that you do that's your No
OK So you would have to maintain

100
00:09:49,21 --> 00:09:55,11
compliance and those notes in
the services you provide and.

101
00:09:56,49 --> 00:10:03,43
The other piece that just for
explanation contemporaneous notes

102
00:10:04,12 --> 00:10:11,04
means what. Everybody So this
year we extended that to seventy

103
00:10:11,05 --> 00:10:16,04
two hours so basically what it means is
that within seventy two hours of providing

104
00:10:16,05 --> 00:10:20,78
service you need to put you know into the
system so that that's very nice that you

105
00:10:20,79 --> 00:10:26,68
got that seventy two hours because when
I was working it was you had to do it

106
00:10:26,69 --> 00:10:28,22
within forty eight hours and if it was

107
00:10:28,23 --> 00:10:33,85
a Friday yeah yeah yeah that's why we
decided to extend there was one other thing

108
00:10:33,86 --> 00:10:40,82
that we had to do this year because
of the fact that the. System for

109
00:10:40,86 --> 00:10:45,11
determining eligibility
changed we have to go through

110
00:10:45,12 --> 00:10:51,56
a very different process and so we're
taking notes on our students not just on

111
00:10:51,57 --> 00:10:58,00
students who we know are eligible so every
day that they have received service and

112
00:10:58,01 --> 00:10:59,79
he student that gets a service has

113
00:10:59,80 --> 00:11:06,43
a no in the system. OK. So here's my next

114
00:11:06,44 --> 00:11:12,52
question Do your support staff then have
time in their daily schedule to write

115
00:11:12,53 --> 00:11:18,54
their notes it's been going really
well I think that they're surprised at

116
00:11:19,41 --> 00:11:26,32
how smooth the transition
that's bad OK we have. And

117
00:11:26,36 --> 00:11:32,43
we've been trying to stand tap of any
questions that they have. But this

118
00:11:32,86 --> 00:11:39,04
system Medicaid directive has been used
by all the other districts in the area so

119
00:11:39,30 --> 00:11:45,77
they really to act it to be meet the
needs of the providers OK so it's pretty

120
00:11:45,77 --> 00:11:52,43
streamlined OK are there is time built
into all Speech Language Teachers schedule

121
00:11:52,44 --> 00:11:56,98
every day or if not every day every other
day so that they do have time to OK yeah

122
00:11:57,23 --> 00:12:03,68
thank thank you part thanks. Any
other questions. There's the

123
00:12:03,82 --> 00:12:10,61
compliance committee in order to identify
best practices you bring in. Maybe one of

124
00:12:10,62 --> 00:12:13,17
the authors or where do you come up with

125
00:12:13,18 --> 00:12:18,70
a best practice we've had auditors come
in and we have done internal audits.

126
00:12:20,00 --> 00:12:25,98
Cindy from both Cs comes in and and makes
sure that we know what documents are

127
00:12:25,99 --> 00:12:32,67
needed and tries to help us make sure
our filing as of today so. Next.

128
00:12:34,45 --> 00:12:40,32
Any other questions. I have a
quick one when you say there's

129
00:12:40,33 --> 00:12:46,21
a lot of glitches that can interfere with
getting reimbursement so if something

130
00:12:47,11 --> 00:12:51,41
like that does happen I or you were awarded
an opportunity to correct that and get

131
00:12:51,42 --> 00:12:56,53
the reimbursement or if the mistake is made
do we lose the reimbursement typically

132
00:12:56,54 --> 00:12:58,44
it's moving forward when you find

133
00:12:58,45 --> 00:13:03,97
a mistake you would let someone know that
all of this is what you're doing wrong

134
00:13:04,81 --> 00:13:10,93
and you need to correct that action there's
times when they will know that they

135
00:13:10,94 --> 00:13:15,82
answered something wrong and they have the
ability to invalidate that now and we

136
00:13:15,83 --> 00:13:22,72
enter and I say OK Thank
you. Well to go along with

137
00:13:22,73 --> 00:13:28,81
that if you're got now seventy two hours
to correct something that's huge. When you

138
00:13:28,82 --> 00:13:33,67
had to have it. Certainly is

139
00:13:33,68 --> 00:13:40,16
a help to the district to correct things.
Thank you Marty you coming out tonight.

realize I can never be clerics she
always has. And everything happening K.

212
00:19:19,43 --> 00:19:26,17
Twelve through the district so thank
you Claire. And I'll turn it over

213
00:19:26,18 --> 00:19:32,87
now to Dr Maloney and Mrs Dana so it's
hard to believe that it's already time to

214
00:19:32,88 --> 00:19:38,82
talk about the two thousand eight hundred
nineteen of course selection guide. But

215
00:19:38,86 --> 00:19:45,00
as Dr Putnam mentioned we're heading into
budget season and. The course selection

216
00:19:45,01 --> 00:19:50,54
guide as Liz Smith the department chair for
Social Studies says students vote with

217
00:19:50,55 --> 00:19:57,01
their feet and the course is that they
select. So the Course election guide if

218
00:19:57,02 --> 00:20:03,66
you've had a chance to take a look.
It has a new look to it. Mrs puns

219
00:20:03,67 --> 00:20:05,81
e in the Arctic. Aren't designed

220
00:20:06,16 --> 00:20:12,64
a new cover for it using student artwork
and I just I'm so excited about how the

221
00:20:12,65 --> 00:20:17,96
new the new guide looks and then on the
inside there are some new features as well

222
00:20:18,42 --> 00:20:24,38
that Mrs Dean is going to highlight. We are
really excited we change the format of

223
00:20:24,58 --> 00:20:28,69
the book it's one of those projects we
always want to work on but never can see

224
00:20:28,86 --> 00:20:34,18
never seem to find the time and I have to
give kudos to some of our secretaries in

225
00:20:34,19 --> 00:20:40,57
the counseling office who are phenomenal
we've redesigned that. To make it more

226
00:20:40,58 --> 00:20:44,59
searchable and to make it more user friendly
in the past you couldn't hit the links

227
00:20:44,60 --> 00:20:50,24
you couldn't jump from page to page all
of the pages at the bottom of every page

228
00:20:50,25 --> 00:20:54,96
you can click back to the table of contents
which is now hyperlink and jumps you to

229
00:20:54,97 --> 00:20:58,91
any section of the course selection guide
so we really hope for our students that

230
00:20:58,92 --> 00:21:04,39
will be easier to use as well
as parents we also really took

231
00:21:04,40 --> 00:21:09,49
a look at four year planning and as we
thought about new courses we were going to

232
00:21:09,50 --> 00:21:15,60
offer how were we going to offer those
classes with without increasing staff so we

233
00:21:15,76 --> 00:21:21,34
went to. Every other year rotation on a
few of our classes that don't always have

234
00:21:21,38 --> 00:21:26,50
a lot of enrollment so students now
and I apologize that we don't have

235
00:21:26,51 --> 00:21:31,27
a slide can see there's five classes that
we are going to offer every other year so

236
00:21:31,28 --> 00:21:35,06
for the next four years the kids can look
in the course selection guide and see

237
00:21:35,36 --> 00:21:35,81
A.P.

238
00:21:35,82 --> 00:21:40,05
Art history will be offered next year but
it won't be offered the following year

239
00:21:40,21 --> 00:21:44,28
but that it will be back in the rotation
and some of our technology and business

240
00:21:44,29 --> 00:21:49,89
classes will be running like that so we can
make sure that our classes are fall and

241
00:21:49,90 --> 00:21:53,94
that we're not running classes with low
in Rome and while also introducing

242
00:21:53,95 --> 00:22:00,49
a new class says. Other parts of the course
selection guide all of our dual credit

243
00:22:00,50 --> 00:22:02,48
options. Have

244
00:22:02,49 --> 00:22:08,85
a logo and weight error. Of and we're
now at I believe thirty one of our

245
00:22:08,86 --> 00:22:15,00
classes do offer some type of college
credit with them we have partnerships with

246
00:22:15,01 --> 00:22:18,08
M.C.C. Sarah Hughes and our I.T.

247
00:22:18,84 --> 00:22:19,48
And it's just

248
00:22:19,49 --> 00:22:24,04
a great opportunity if families want to
pursue dual credit while in high school.

249
00:22:25,07 --> 00:22:30,14
Oftentimes we hear of some of our graduates
completing college in three years just

250
00:22:30,15 --> 00:22:34,31
because of the number of do a
credit courses that we do offer

251
00:22:34,83 --> 00:22:40,41
a lot of times kids will ask her to college
and that is dependent on the college

252
00:22:40,42 --> 00:22:45,04
they attend but if they stay within SUNY
all of those credits will absolutely

253
00:22:45,05 --> 00:22:49,36
transfer where we currently
offer sixteen A.P.

254
00:22:49,37 --> 00:22:51,59
Courses in addition to the thirty one to

255
00:22:51,60 --> 00:22:58,02
a credit options. And as
always there are some new

256
00:22:58,03 --> 00:23:04,40
courses to share with you these would be
pending board approval the first course is

257
00:23:04,41 --> 00:23:10,53
a Microsoft office course and. A
number of districts in our Monroe.

258
00:23:12,05 --> 00:23:17,40
Offer either this course or there's also
an advanced course and we've struggled

259
00:23:17,88 --> 00:23:22,86
having only one business teacher now that
we have two business teachers works and

260
00:23:22,87 --> 00:23:27,94
we're going to that rotating every other
year model works cited to be able to offer

261
00:23:27,95 --> 00:23:34,90
the Microsoft Office course students
will. Be skilled in Word Excel

262
00:23:34,91 --> 00:23:41,55
Powerpoint and access and it's also
a dual credit course through M.C.C.

263
00:23:41,55 --> 00:23:48,08
. The mosaics literature of diversity course
this one I'm really excited about the

264
00:23:48,09 --> 00:23:53,54
students who have been participating in
the student some anon race over the past

265
00:23:53,81 --> 00:23:56,53
few years we've worked
closely with grease on

266
00:23:56,54 --> 00:24:01,31
a couple of projects in particular planning
the student summer on race that we

267
00:24:01,32 --> 00:24:05,26
hosted here and in the UK
planning we visited. Greece

268
00:24:05,51 --> 00:24:11,71
a couple of times and the students
who worked on the grease and were in

269
00:24:11,72 --> 00:24:15,76
a mosaics club and so our students started
asking questions and learning more about

270
00:24:15,77 --> 00:24:20,74
their mosaics club and as our students
learned about the Greece mosaics club they

271
00:24:20,75 --> 00:24:22,27
said please please can we have

272
00:24:22,28 --> 00:24:29,25
a mosaics club and so this year at the
end of last year we we. Put the put

273
00:24:29,26 --> 00:24:34,26
the pieces together and then this year we've
rolled out the mosaics club and Jordan

274
00:24:34,27 --> 00:24:40,47
Garbarino and one of our English teachers
is the advisor and he's been involved in

275
00:24:40,48 --> 00:24:46,08
some of our visits to Greece as well and
one of the other pieces to the Greece

276
00:24:46,09 --> 00:24:47,21
model is that they have

277
00:24:47,22 --> 00:24:54,43
a course mosaics course literature
of diversity and so as Jordan

278
00:24:54,44 --> 00:24:58,66
and the students Mr operate on the students
have been working together they came to

279
00:24:58,67 --> 00:25:00,79
me and said can we can we create

280
00:25:00,80 --> 00:25:07,68
a course around. Around diversity
and racial issues and.

281
00:25:08,73 --> 00:25:15,41
I'm just one of the things in talking
with the students. They're going to

282
00:25:15,42 --> 00:25:21,95
be using the lens of relevant
literature to think critically and

283
00:25:22,51 --> 00:25:29,19
talk about issues related to discrimination
and racial diversity and it's just so

284
00:25:29,20 --> 00:25:36,11
exciting that we're we're going to be able
to offer students this opportunity so.

285
00:25:37,20 --> 00:25:43,37
That is in English elective and it will be
offered to grades ten through twelve and

286
00:25:43,38 --> 00:25:45,62
then gender in literary tax which is

287
00:25:45,63 --> 00:25:51,71
a super course. And the way that super
courses work the course is laid out the

288
00:25:51,72 --> 00:25:58,56
curriculum is laid out. As well as the
textbooks that online and we have offered

289
00:25:58,57 --> 00:26:04,36
a gendered literature course in the past
and in recent years the numbers the Roman

290
00:26:04,37 --> 00:26:09,62
numbers have been very low and.
The English department took

291
00:26:09,63 --> 00:26:14,71
a look at this the gender and literary
text course from soup and said hey maybe

292
00:26:14,72 --> 00:26:21,49
this is the way the reboot make over
that and our gender and literature

293
00:26:21,50 --> 00:26:26,18
course needs so they this
is going to be offered as

294
00:26:26,19 --> 00:26:33,00
a senior elective. And just says Dr
Maloney is exactly so excited about

295
00:26:33,01 --> 00:26:37,60
mosaics I'm equally as excited that we will
be able to offer they reconnect the in

296
00:26:37,61 --> 00:26:42,15
Youth Chorus and it's a
little unusual for us to have

297
00:26:42,19 --> 00:26:45,82
a class like this with credit but we have

298
00:26:45,83 --> 00:26:51,08
a new Delphi counselor who she's certified
in prevention and drug and alcohol

299
00:26:51,09 --> 00:26:56,33
counseling and she has brought so many
great ideas to us and in her previous

300
00:26:56,34 --> 00:27:01,19
districts has taught this class and what
it is is it's we've always had this

301
00:27:01,20 --> 00:27:06,43
curriculum for its students but it's been
through group counseling group now kids

302
00:27:06,44 --> 00:27:12,19
can take this course for credit and it's
kind of considered and at risk students so

303
00:27:12,20 --> 00:27:14,92
a student who may not really
like that if you. High School

304
00:27:15,20 --> 00:27:20,78
a student who doesn't have great attendance
behind in credits and considered at

305
00:27:20,79 --> 00:27:26,33
risk for graduation and. Really
oftentimes a lower G.P.A.

306
00:27:26,77 --> 00:27:28,59
And we've done

307
00:27:28,60 --> 00:27:32,99
a lot of reading on this chorus and the
goal is really taking increase school

308
00:27:33,03 --> 00:27:37,53
performance attendance and kind of
decrease drug involvement in some of the

309
00:27:37,54 --> 00:27:43,48
emotional stressors that
kids have it's. It's

310
00:27:43,49 --> 00:27:48,01
a laid out curriculum that some other
districts have started to offer for credit

311
00:27:48,46 --> 00:27:54,05
and I'm just so excited that we're
going to be able to you know this is

312
00:27:54,06 --> 00:27:58,56
a course I don't know that students will
come to us and want to sign up for but

313
00:27:58,57 --> 00:27:58,78
it's

314
00:27:59,15 --> 00:28:05,28
a course using. Through relationships that
we have with kids and some kids that really

315
00:28:05,29 --> 00:28:08,00
are considered at risk that
struggle they get to school

316
00:28:08,21 --> 00:28:12,96
a course that we can truly offer that may
benefit in terms of self-esteem decision

317
00:28:12,97 --> 00:28:17,15
making in personal control
so that is hopefully

318
00:28:17,16 --> 00:28:19,31
a class that we will be
running next year as

319
00:28:19,32 --> 00:28:25,56
a half year course and we would like to
run in both semesters. College Prep math

320
00:28:25,60 --> 00:28:27,86
this is going to be fourth

321
00:28:28,74 --> 00:28:34,61
a fourth year option for students seniors
to prepare students to study calculus in

322
00:28:34,62 --> 00:28:37,58
college that are now
planning on going into

323
00:28:37,59 --> 00:28:44,50
a stand related field if you think more
in terms of some of those social sciences

324
00:28:44,51 --> 00:28:49,90
psychology education and you know the
students will be expected to continue with

325
00:28:49,91 --> 00:28:55,80
math but maybe not at the applied mathematical
and you know technical science level

326
00:28:56,03 --> 00:29:03,00
so that would be another option for students
to their fourth year here and finally

327
00:29:03,01 --> 00:29:07,30
building and repairing houses
to you this is exciting this is

328
00:29:07,31 --> 00:29:12,74
a half year technology elective that is
going to dig deeper we offer building and

329
00:29:12,75 --> 00:29:14,87
repairing houses one in. There's

330
00:29:14,88 --> 00:29:19,51
a lot of students that love this class
it's those applied practical skills were

331
00:29:19,52 --> 00:29:24,29
kids learn about flooring and roofing but
this is really going to dig deeper it's

332
00:29:24,30 --> 00:29:30,43
the second year kids are going to actually
start doing more plumbing backside mason

333
00:29:30,86 --> 00:29:34,03
work ruffian through this class obviously

334
00:29:34,96 --> 00:29:40,04
a little exposure to each But again some
of those life skills that I know I wish I

335
00:29:40,05 --> 00:29:42,90
had but because we know when we had

336
00:29:42,91 --> 00:29:45,64
a contractor is that can be
very expensive and this is

337
00:29:45,65 --> 00:29:50,86
a great outlet for some students who really
prefer to be hands on rather than you

338
00:29:50,87 --> 00:29:56,45
know the traditional note taking reading
in textbook work. Those are the new

339
00:29:56,46 --> 00:30:02,15
courses that hopefully your approval we
will be able to offer and next year.

340
00:30:04,08 --> 00:30:09,42
And there are. A couple other changes
that we wanted to highlight in the guide.

341
00:30:10,56 --> 00:30:14,40
Currently we offer insights
into chemistry and physics as

342
00:30:14,41 --> 00:30:21,08
a full year course moving forward this will
be split into two semester long courses

343
00:30:21,90 --> 00:30:27,80
which will. Now allow us to have
four semester long Science electives

344
00:30:28,07 --> 00:30:33,10
forensics astronomy and then insights
into chemistry and insights into physics

345
00:30:33,32 --> 00:30:39,40
which will allow students that ability
to mix and match. Some students may pair

346
00:30:39,41 --> 00:30:46,21
forensics with. Insights into chemistry
other students may elect to take insights

347
00:30:46,22 --> 00:30:50,35
into physics and then say Hey I I think
next year I want to actually take physics

348
00:30:50,65 --> 00:30:52,33
so it's going to allow students

349
00:30:52,83 --> 00:30:59,45
a little bit more flexibility and then
super sociology and the mosaics course are

350
00:30:59,46 --> 00:31:04,99
going to be open to tenth through
twelfth graders in the past.

351
00:31:06,21 --> 00:31:11,09
Super sociology was eleventh and twelfth
grade and now we're going to open that up

352
00:31:11,10 --> 00:31:16,92
and allow for more elective choices for
sophomores. And then the UN pairing of the

353
00:31:16,93 --> 00:31:21,48
English and social studies paired
courses. As you know the social studies

354
00:31:21,49 --> 00:31:27,34
curriculum is currently undergoing significant
restructuring with the shift to the

355
00:31:27,35 --> 00:31:32,93
new New York State learning standards for
social studies and with this shift the

356
00:31:32,94 --> 00:31:38,94
social studies courses are more humanities
focused and teachers need time to do

357
00:31:38,95 --> 00:31:45,24
this work as you know with our transition.
Over the years with different to

358
00:31:45,25 --> 00:31:50,88
different standards it takes time to realign
the courses. To the new standards as

359
00:31:50,89 --> 00:31:56,18
well as to collaborate with the English
department for the Humanities piece and

360
00:31:56,19 --> 00:32:01,44
then the end result. Social
studies in English courses K.

361
00:32:01,45 --> 00:32:06,84
Twelve are centrally going to be
what we refer to now as paired with

362
00:32:06,85 --> 00:32:12,93
a humanities cohesion but at the high
school level students schedules will not be

363
00:32:13,28 --> 00:32:17,98
locked down by needing to be paired
with two particular teachers with

364
00:32:17,99 --> 00:32:20,45
a particular. English teacher in

365
00:32:20,46 --> 00:32:24,51
a particular social studies because of
the paired course so essentially all

366
00:32:24,52 --> 00:32:31,52
students will receive or experience.
That humanities cohesion of context

367
00:32:31,81 --> 00:32:38,18
fused with literature. Not just the students
in the honors are paired sections like

368
00:32:38,19 --> 00:32:43,42
it currently is so students will be able
to take English nine honors English ten

369
00:32:43,43 --> 00:32:48,02
honors English eleven honors global
one honors global two honors and A.P.

370
00:32:48,03 --> 00:32:53,39
Us in the example that we have
there in the current structure if

371
00:32:53,40 --> 00:32:58,25
a student wanted to take global one honors
they have to take the paired but moving

372
00:32:58,26 --> 00:33:05,11
forward students can take English but yet
global one or English nine honors in

373
00:33:05,12 --> 00:33:08,73
global one honors creating
more options for students.

374
00:33:12,02 --> 00:33:17,83
So we have actually being on this for us.
Last week they teachers court teachers

375
00:33:18,59 --> 00:33:24,14
worked with students during classes to kind
of talk about next year's selections in

376
00:33:24,15 --> 00:33:29,25
each subject area and kind of advise students
on their thoughts and have conversed

377
00:33:29,26 --> 00:33:31,48
with students about
what they felt might be

378
00:33:31,49 --> 00:33:36,13
a good option and also listen to what
students thought teachers added their

379
00:33:36,66 --> 00:33:41,22
feedback into infinite campus and tomorrow
or the portal will open for all students

380
00:33:41,23 --> 00:33:48,11
and parents high school grades nine ten
and eleven and during the next ten

381
00:33:48,12 --> 00:33:53,21
days which begins tomorrow until right
before the holiday break students can have

382
00:33:53,22 --> 00:33:57,47
their empire they can look at what the
teachers recommended they can add their

383
00:33:57,51 --> 00:34:03,95
elected they can add you know their input
we will close the portal right before the

384
00:34:03,96 --> 00:34:08,83
holiday break and students at Bay Trail and
parents will have that same opportunity

385
00:34:08,84 --> 00:34:13,96
in January January ninth through the
seventeenth January eighth we will offer

386
00:34:13,97 --> 00:34:15,29
a parent evening for

387
00:34:15,34 --> 00:34:22,13
a child parents so they can learn about
transitioning to the high school. Then

388
00:34:22,14 --> 00:34:26,99
students will all students will meet with
her school counsellor here and look at

389
00:34:27,00 --> 00:34:33,78
their schedule and map out their plan
and we will then add all the input

390
00:34:33,79 --> 00:34:36,08
before February break there will be

391
00:34:36,09 --> 00:34:42,21
a final opportunity to make changes letters
and communications get sent home with

392
00:34:43,09 --> 00:34:45,36
outlines what students
selected and there will be

393
00:34:45,37 --> 00:34:49,94
a window to make changes and then we'll
have to lock in fitting campus so we can

394
00:34:49,95 --> 00:34:55,38
begin work on building in the master schedule
which we're excited about what we're

395
00:34:55,52 --> 00:35:00,84
learning some new tips and techniques to
doing that this coming year and some great

396
00:35:00,85 --> 00:35:04,93
training up ahead and then we have

397
00:35:04,94 --> 00:35:09,25
a limited ad and drop period for the first
two weeks of school for students just

398
00:35:09,73 --> 00:35:14,25
like students to try what they selected
because obviously we've made decisions to.

399
00:35:14,72 --> 00:35:20,89
Higher teacher is an. Error in classes
based on course selection so it's

400
00:35:20,90 --> 00:35:22,71
a process that we take takes

401
00:35:22,72 --> 00:35:27,60
a lot of time at the high school but it
also is why we're here to. Educate our

402
00:35:27,61 --> 00:35:34,34
students and. Have classes. Believe
that completes this forest and

403
00:35:35,06 --> 00:35:39,64
be happy to answer any questions that you
may have board members that he questions

404
00:35:39,64 --> 00:35:46,64
. I haven't seen this type of presentation
before so that's good thank you. I

405
00:35:46,65 --> 00:35:51,61
was pleasantly surprised to see how much
feedback you considered from students

406
00:35:51,62 --> 00:35:56,18
families teachers to develop new courses
and offerings and I think the dual credit

407
00:35:56,19 --> 00:36:00,73
courses really helped make Penfield
unique so so thank you for that and I was

408
00:36:00,77 --> 00:36:05,62
equally as excited to see the building and
repairing houses too because that's an

409
00:36:05,78 --> 00:36:10,20
interest to me and I quite honestly I think
that will get kids ready for life or

410
00:36:10,26 --> 00:36:12,67
career should they not
go to college and as

411
00:36:12,68 --> 00:36:17,48
a homeowner I think everybody needs to take
part in that we do need an office three

412
00:36:17,49 --> 00:36:24,02
sixty five course for the board OK I just
want to make it quite well maybe next

413
00:36:24,03 --> 00:36:29,89
year these incidents get to dictate I
take them. I don't want to go back but no

414
00:36:29,90 --> 00:36:33,72
then lastly I look at the real quickly
that the Course got it was like seventy

415
00:36:33,73 --> 00:36:40,34
eight pages times fifteen hundred students
I mean aside from Dr since you see

416
00:36:40,62 --> 00:36:44,60
with dealing with moving targets that's
probably the biggest moving target to come

417
00:36:44,61 --> 00:36:46,48
in and formulate

418
00:36:46,49 --> 00:36:50,24
a nice schedule that works into the you
know the squeezer So you guys should be

419
00:36:50,25 --> 00:36:56,95
proud yourselves Thanks thanks you know.
Members any other questions or comment

420
00:36:57,08 --> 00:37:03,63
Marc. That's going to couple
things I'm going to talk about

421
00:37:04,61 --> 00:37:06,70
some of these courses to
every year which makes

422
00:37:06,71 --> 00:37:12,01
a lot of sense because I want to have them
and if they don't have sufficient demand

423
00:37:13,00 --> 00:37:18,28
or any of these courses in the. Of the
type that they need to be sequenced so. If

424
00:37:18,29 --> 00:37:22,73
you decide if you set out for your profession
from taking another course until you

425
00:37:22,74 --> 00:37:28,03
finish that. The first course you have me
then there are sequence that way or they

426
00:37:28,04 --> 00:37:31,87
can you take them independently
of everything else. That's

427
00:37:31,88 --> 00:37:36,33
a great point they definitely looked at
the classes that we did decide to do that

428
00:37:36,34 --> 00:37:38,67
with because we would hate to have

429
00:37:38,68 --> 00:37:42,37
a student take one this year and then ever
get it again or not get it till senior

430
00:37:42,38 --> 00:37:47,80
year I said where it's only starting
with five right now so none of them are.

431
00:37:49,42 --> 00:37:56,06
In that situation that you describe the
scene when. They aren't. And the other

432
00:37:56,07 --> 00:38:02,99
question I had was for the new courses
and. Microsoft Office I think

433
00:38:03,00 --> 00:38:06,78
is great to me that should be mandatory
compulsory for every student in my opinion

434
00:38:07,57 --> 00:38:09,12
however all these you having

435
00:38:09,13 --> 00:38:13,77
a bunch of new courses. Waiting their
success in terms of delivering the

436
00:38:13,78 --> 00:38:18,88
information you want them to deliver and
that there's sufficient demand and if you

437
00:38:18,89 --> 00:38:25,14
know the first year people want to do this
again. I think with any course whether

438
00:38:25,15 --> 00:38:27,98
it's a new course or a course
that we currently offer there's

439
00:38:27,99 --> 00:38:33,91
a layer it's almost if you think of it in
terms of layers you know as I mentioned

440
00:38:34,20 --> 00:38:39,60
at the beginning of the presentation the
students choose the courses and that

441
00:38:39,61 --> 00:38:39,94
drives

442
00:38:39,95 --> 00:38:47,16
a lot of. A lot of the the
offerings but also particularly

443
00:38:47,17 --> 00:38:47,30
with

444
00:38:47,31 --> 00:38:52,05
a course like the Microsoft Office course.
Some of the things that we look at are

445
00:38:52,85 --> 00:38:56,52
is the majority of the class or the majority
of the students electing to take the

446
00:38:56,53 --> 00:39:00,79
dual credit if they're not then
what's what's there must be

447
00:39:00,80 --> 00:39:06,03
a gap there what's that gap and and that
causes us to do that raises some red flags

448
00:39:06,04 --> 00:39:11,00
and so we begin to look at that you know
obviously the grades the feedback from the

449
00:39:11,01 --> 00:39:15,12
teachers and then the feedback from the
students the students are. Not afraid to

450
00:39:15,13 --> 00:39:21,12
tell us which courses are working and which
courses are not working for them but I

451
00:39:21,37 --> 00:39:25,07
really believe particularly with the Microsoft
Office course because of the success

452
00:39:25,08 --> 00:39:30,53
that we've seen in the other districts
that offer I went be surprised if down the

453
00:39:30,54 --> 00:39:35,91
road I'm here presenting the advanced
Microsoft Office course that many of the

454
00:39:35,92 --> 00:39:40,58
other schools offer. Thank you. Carol.

455
00:39:48,07 --> 00:39:54,87
And it's succeeding to see that you
have in your book now. It is on

456
00:39:54,88 --> 00:39:58,79
line for us to see I'm still thinking
about the first time ever that we put

457
00:39:58,80 --> 00:40:05,76
a course. That was so many
years ago so this is nice very

458
00:40:05,77 --> 00:40:12,19
excited that. Morsy and gender and literary
text and all specially that those are

459
00:40:12,20 --> 00:40:16,23
classes that are offered a
lot in colleges and you see

460
00:40:16,37 --> 00:40:23,09
a lot of students you know going to the
specially. You know. Classes about

461
00:40:23,13 --> 00:40:26,10
women and women the there is and there
are now this stuff so this is really

462
00:40:26,32 --> 00:40:28,30
exciting and I have

463
00:40:28,31 --> 00:40:32,26
a lot of appreciation for you for answering
all my questions that came so late

464
00:40:32,27 --> 00:40:37,26
during the day and I'm speechless that you
answered them already and I know I had

465
00:40:37,27 --> 00:40:42,18
numerous one exam think you so much I frankly
was not expecting the answer to these

466
00:40:42,19 --> 00:40:48,44
so I really appreciate that and you answered
them to read details I still have I'm

467
00:40:48,45 --> 00:40:48,74
more of

468
00:40:48,75 --> 00:40:54,25
a comment though about reconnecting use
them trying to Rep my head around that and

469
00:40:54,43 --> 00:41:01,14
you know understand the need for it and why
it's being presented but. I still have

470
00:41:01,15 --> 00:41:04,92
concerns regarding the stigma
that might happen with such

471
00:41:04,93 --> 00:41:07,83
a class and we've seen
in other instances when

472
00:41:08,18 --> 00:41:14,19
a kid was placed in advanced classes like
you know kids who would say Oh they're in

473
00:41:14,20 --> 00:41:19,34
the. Smart math you know and or you know
it you've heard from to name in our

474
00:41:19,35 --> 00:41:24,15
previous Delphi counselor that sometimes
kid didn't even want to come near his

475
00:41:24,16 --> 00:41:30,62
office in order for other kids not to think
that you know oh I was so and so you're

476
00:41:30,86 --> 00:41:37,71
so how. Do. A couple of things

477
00:41:38,68 --> 00:41:40,49
and I think you're concerned is

478
00:41:40,50 --> 00:41:46,95
a very valid point one of the things that
I feel really good about is Katie to

479
00:41:46,96 --> 00:41:51,96
solve all our new prevention counselor so
I'm not sure if the board is aware but

480
00:41:52,23 --> 00:41:59,21
Ted Amen moved up at Delphi so he is
supervising Katie and so. That it

481
00:41:59,22 --> 00:42:05,77
always feels good to know that Ted is
there in it he had selected Katie for

482
00:42:05,78 --> 00:42:06,86
P.H.'s and he did

483
00:42:06,87 --> 00:42:13,17
a fabulous job. For her her experience
and her background in having taught the

484
00:42:13,18 --> 00:42:20,09
course in two districts two different
districts I feel you know we're

485
00:42:20,13 --> 00:42:24,38
looking to her to say hell you know we
don't want to have this stigma how do we

486
00:42:24,39 --> 00:42:30,91
avoid that and what does that look like
and. She's very excited because of the

487
00:42:31,44 --> 00:42:37,62
the seminars and the relationships as staff
mentioned that our counselors have with

488
00:42:37,63 --> 00:42:43,32
our students to be able to to ensure
that the the students who are taking the

489
00:42:43,33 --> 00:42:48,47
course are the students who are going to
benefit most from the course and. You know

490
00:42:49,10 --> 00:42:54,15
so far she's been great at providing us
advice on how to avoid that stigma piece

491
00:42:54,98 --> 00:43:01,38
and then. In terms of the course in the
connection that it has to the school you

492
00:43:01,39 --> 00:43:02,57
know that they do

493
00:43:02,61 --> 00:43:06,67
a lot of projects she's had them do lots
of projects in the past and also projects

494
00:43:06,68 --> 00:43:13,49
within the community. Volunteer ing and
making those connections reconnecting you

495
00:43:13,94 --> 00:43:19,34
so. I'm I'm very excited to
to have this course at P.H.S.

496
00:43:19,35 --> 00:43:23,76
I think and when I hear that description
of the class onus is just salvo talks

497
00:43:23,77 --> 00:43:27,03
about it almost reminds me
of our leadership class in

498
00:43:27,04 --> 00:43:30,81
a different way our leadership class those
projects for the school and they get

499
00:43:30,82 --> 00:43:32,39
very invested in they own

500
00:43:32,40 --> 00:43:37,32
a project and it almost sounds like it
mirrors that to some degree and certain

501
00:43:37,33 --> 00:43:39,16
students would never go anywhere near

502
00:43:39,17 --> 00:43:42,72
a leadership class because they don't
know that they almost think there's

503
00:43:42,73 --> 00:43:49,39
a stigma with that and curious to see
if we do get enrollment. I mean as I'm

504
00:43:49,40 --> 00:43:53,21
sitting here I know my five students I'm
going to ask and we could name them right

505
00:43:53,22 --> 00:43:57,98
here Baek and they're great kids they're
absolutely awesome kids wonderful hearts

506
00:43:57,99 --> 00:44:04,52
and just have got into tough situations and
you know I know there's good insight in

507
00:44:04,53 --> 00:44:06,86
that they can find that and maybe

508
00:44:06,87 --> 00:44:13,25
a little more but I hope that it will work
it's it is different I absolutely agree

509
00:44:13,26 --> 00:44:18,19
with you but walking in the counseling
office now and with our ninth and tenth

510
00:44:18,20 --> 00:44:21,77
grade seminars I can't
tell you how much of

511
00:44:21,78 --> 00:44:26,64
a different feel it I have to be able to
know everyone's greater in the building

512
00:44:26,65 --> 00:44:31,48
within four weeks of school started invite
name and every counselor can do that

513
00:44:31,49 --> 00:44:34,44
with their ninth and tenth graders and we're
starting with the eleventh and twelfth

514
00:44:34,45 --> 00:44:36,89
graders and I've never felt such

515
00:44:36,90 --> 00:44:41,73
a connection and it's exciting and it feels
good and we'll see what happens with

516
00:44:41,74 --> 00:44:46,95
reconnecting you and hopefully it will be
successful thank you I appreciate your

517
00:44:46,96 --> 00:44:51,51
answers my last one is to talk to them
so do we get some where you are from the

518
00:44:51,52 --> 00:44:57,35
state for having someone. You
know I was on the way I had S.

519
00:44:57,35 --> 00:45:04,35
. He was so if I was in education.
I'm sure if she's not do we

520
00:45:04,36 --> 00:45:11,25
get some Weaver about this. Or am I this
is this all my turn to Barbara Starr.

521
00:45:12,89 --> 00:45:18,40
I don't know. I don't know that's what we
do know is that in working with Delphi

522
00:45:18,41 --> 00:45:23,07
with Ted A man is that other districts have
done this and we know that teachers can

523
00:45:23,08 --> 00:45:27,15
teach out one class out of their
content area it's for it's not

524
00:45:27,16 --> 00:45:30,02
a graduate can't be a graduation
requirement but it can be a half

525
00:45:30,03 --> 00:45:34,75
a credit towards that in the past
we've done similar things and we had

526
00:45:34,76 --> 00:45:39,94
a staff member who was. A
school psychologist who ran

527
00:45:40,02 --> 00:45:45,32
a year book club but we offered credit for
pass fail credit and we were able to do

528
00:45:45,33 --> 00:45:50,27
that as well so the nice piece with that
Delphi relationship is their connection

529
00:45:50,28 --> 00:45:54,41
with state and as well and so that's one
of those pieces where is pending board

530
00:45:54,42 --> 00:45:59,19
approval and I will double check through
both C's with Dan White to make sure that

531
00:45:59,28 --> 00:46:04,39
that what we are doing is allowable our
understanding is it is but but I will

532
00:46:04,40 --> 00:46:05,15
double check that was

533
00:46:05,16 --> 00:46:11,24
a great question that came up today I
think. We have not had the artist in

534
00:46:11,25 --> 00:46:17,35
residence similar. And
we're going to work our.

535
00:46:22,85 --> 00:46:29,03
Way. The one thing I'll add to that I'm I'm
excited with the reconnecting new thing

536
00:46:29,04 --> 00:46:35,89
is. There's two things I think of one
is that that through Ted Amen and now

537
00:46:35,90 --> 00:46:39,99
on this to solve Oh there's are there's
already groups that meet and so typically

538
00:46:40,00 --> 00:46:41,30
and I haven't been in the high school in

539
00:46:41,31 --> 00:46:45,23
a few years but it was is that they
would get pulled out of class on

540
00:46:45,24 --> 00:46:46,80
a rotating basis to meet in

541
00:46:46,81 --> 00:46:50,68
a group and have these conversations so
they missed instruction time and we are

542
00:46:50,69 --> 00:46:54,98
typically talking kids who aren't connected
to school in attendance is important

543
00:46:55,60 --> 00:46:59,73
and you're asking kids to come in for
group and have conversations and do

544
00:46:59,74 --> 00:47:03,94
a lot of this work but they don't get credit
for it so here's an opportunity to say

545
00:47:03,98 --> 00:47:06,49
you're going to actually earn credit
for coming here but you've got

546
00:47:06,50 --> 00:47:10,60
a tendon you've got to be part of the class
so my hope is that can be that sort of

547
00:47:10,72 --> 00:47:15,78
the driving force to keep kids interested.
The other piece was stigma I think

548
00:47:15,79 --> 00:47:21,44
you're one hundred percent right about
that as is four years ago as principal I

549
00:47:22,04 --> 00:47:26,73
would have been worried about that price
still worried but I'm less worried because

550
00:47:26,85 --> 00:47:31,12
of the seminar structure we've talked about
with the board and how and how you know

551
00:47:32,05 --> 00:47:32,71
the counselors

552
00:47:32,72 --> 00:47:38,61
a social worker they're all going up and
I mean. And so we have that and then we

553
00:47:38,62 --> 00:47:43,72
have. A lot of this saying with classes
when we look at where sometimes

554
00:47:43,73 --> 00:47:48,69
a class is really really popular and then
due to retirements and teacher changes

555
00:47:48,70 --> 00:47:50,41
it's a different teacher and they might do

556
00:47:50,42 --> 00:47:53,84
a phenomenal job but they just don't
get the kids signing up for it because

557
00:47:53,85 --> 00:47:57,56
a lot of times we know students connect to
certain teachers and certain adults and

558
00:47:57,91 --> 00:48:00,88
I know that they're
connecting with Ted but in

559
00:48:00,89 --> 00:48:04,81
a different way they're connecting with
the Solve Also I'm excited and then the

560
00:48:04,82 --> 00:48:05,50
other piece from

561
00:48:05,51 --> 00:48:10,25
a staffing point of view is we're not
hiring for this we have heard here through

562
00:48:10,26 --> 00:48:13,70
the Delphi contract so
it's one of those it's

563
00:48:13,71 --> 00:48:17,98
a win win because let's say we don't get
enough kids to take the class she's still

564
00:48:17,99 --> 00:48:23,45
a one point zero staff member through
the. Contract we have so it's less of

565
00:48:23,46 --> 00:48:24,71
a concern than hiring

566
00:48:24,72 --> 00:48:28,80
a teacher to come in and teach the class
and doesn't work so even around like the

567
00:48:28,81 --> 00:48:32,06
minimum fifteen it's probably
something we can look at

568
00:48:32,07 --> 00:48:34,76
a little bit differently because she's
already here she's already in the building

569
00:48:34,77 --> 00:48:38,43
she's already running through and the other
piece with the stigma I think of his

570
00:48:38,76 --> 00:48:43,59
students as staff and as we talked about
and I can I can pick some out you know

571
00:48:44,14 --> 00:48:48,85
they already feel sometimes as an outsider
at high school you know where I'm an

572
00:48:48,86 --> 00:48:49,56
honest person where

573
00:48:49,57 --> 00:48:54,70
a large traditional high school so we are
not everybody's favorite place to go and

574
00:48:54,71 --> 00:49:00,46
so maybe having that stigma that they either
self-imposed or they feel that to then

575
00:49:00,47 --> 00:49:03,58
connect with other people to
feel that way and try to make

576
00:49:03,59 --> 00:49:07,26
a positive connection and hopefully
be a real a real positive

577
00:49:07,47 --> 00:49:13,72
a positive step so I'm hopeful for that
class and the others as well I think for I

578
00:49:13,73 --> 00:49:19,78
will be so. Adding up for building houses.
Because you know that if you don't want

579
00:49:19,79 --> 00:49:20,44
to do any building

580
00:49:20,45 --> 00:49:23,86
a superintendent because I don't have to
really get Gary in because the audience

581
00:49:23,87 --> 00:49:30,46
will do all the hard work for us. Thank
you I willing to answer all my questions

582
00:49:31,35 --> 00:49:37,15
thank you so much. He said to
the question why did I Oh.

583
00:49:40,64 --> 00:49:47,52
I can't tell. How much and I used to be
on. How to get my new glasses to work

584
00:49:48,33 --> 00:49:49,21
mine is more of

585
00:49:49,22 --> 00:49:54,19
a technical question actually I actually
had two questions. When you're looking at

586
00:49:54,20 --> 00:50:00,51
locking. Locking in campus and so kids
can make changes what happens when say

587
00:50:00,52 --> 00:50:06,80
something offered. To students you know
get notified and then what does that work

588
00:50:06,81 --> 00:50:13,69
like so what do you meet with students.
To magical alternatives so let kids know

589
00:50:13,70 --> 00:50:16,21
that we can't always it
doesn't always feel like

590
00:50:16,22 --> 00:50:21,18
a perfect one sometimes courses aren't
offered but if we can't go to an alternative

591
00:50:21,24 --> 00:50:23,72
then really all kids get notified that

592
00:50:23,73 --> 00:50:29,79
a class would be cancelled and asked to
pick something. So great and then I just

593
00:50:29,80 --> 00:50:32,51
was curious about the going to be
every other year schedules are

594
00:50:32,52 --> 00:50:38,29
a mechanism for students to. Kind of say
hey I kind of want to take this is so you

595
00:50:38,30 --> 00:50:42,34
can kind of like that but there
are those kinds of pieces.

596
00:50:45,68 --> 00:50:45,84
Like

597
00:50:45,85 --> 00:50:51,91
a meeting list or something to keep track
of when students meet with their counselor

598
00:50:52,11 --> 00:50:58,99
those are the conversations the counselor
has in their notes or kept. A student

599
00:50:59,00 --> 00:51:03,54
so we could see the you know I would
if in my case and everybody is

600
00:51:03,55 --> 00:51:04,47
a little different but we do have

601
00:51:04,48 --> 00:51:08,83
a four year plan so if we know they want
to take our history and it's going to be

602
00:51:08,84 --> 00:51:10,48
offered we would make

603
00:51:10,49 --> 00:51:14,25
a note for senior year you know check in
with the student sometimes they changed.

604
00:51:14,32 --> 00:51:17,69
Are mine and sometimes they don't and they
they remind us before we pull the note

605
00:51:17,70 --> 00:51:23,15
out as but yes we definitely do have some
checks and balances built in prison right

606
00:51:23,15 --> 00:51:30,13
. Mark went back to the
reconnecting use and Scribus

607
00:51:30,14 --> 00:51:30,47
more

608
00:51:30,85 --> 00:51:37,11
a question of how we position disk last.
Along with the alternative school program

609
00:51:37,12 --> 00:51:37,63
that's

610
00:51:37,67 --> 00:51:43,91
a partnership with. Yet actually when we
were talking about it I was thinking of

611
00:51:43,92 --> 00:51:44,21
the G.

612
00:51:44,22 --> 00:51:50,94
Prep program. And currently. Our students

613
00:51:51,73 --> 00:51:52,00
we have

614
00:51:52,01 --> 00:51:56,43
a lot of eleventh graders that have come
back from cheap crap eleventh grade was

615
00:51:56,44 --> 00:52:01,88
not offered this year and at cheaper edgy
prep and so they're coming back and some

616
00:52:01,89 --> 00:52:02,51
are doing a half

617
00:52:02,52 --> 00:52:09,47
a because he's program and some aren't.
And right now you know. I do see students

618
00:52:09,48 --> 00:52:14,23
from that program taking advantage that
have retired to Penfield high school I

619
00:52:14,24 --> 00:52:18,86
don't really see it as an option too for
students that don't want to leave their

620
00:52:18,87 --> 00:52:24,06
home school I think it's hard for some
students but I think to offer both G.

621
00:52:24,07 --> 00:52:28,70
Prep is going to be more expensive and
more alternative they're going to you know

622
00:52:28,71 --> 00:52:32,95
have smaller class environment
it's it's definitely

623
00:52:32,96 --> 00:52:37,58
a moral alternative whereas
this is going to be a half here

624
00:52:37,59 --> 00:52:40,97
a class one time. So yeah.

625
00:52:44,19 --> 00:52:45,83
OK Well I have

626
00:52:45,84 --> 00:52:51,75
a quick question on the building houses
the what I'm curious about is how many

627
00:52:51,76 --> 00:52:57,76
girls take their course so the one that
you offer already to. This is I'm rolling

628
00:52:57,77 --> 00:53:03,36
you're going to say fifty fifty you girls
never taking it no no if you don't and I

629
00:53:03,37 --> 00:53:10,32
even know that it's math
No I. I would say. I mean

630
00:53:10,46 --> 00:53:17,28
to be really transparent about it
maybe ten percent. Yeah I have

631
00:53:17,29 --> 00:53:20,50
these to run I would need to run then to
double check that we would have to double

632
00:53:20,51 --> 00:53:26,06
check I. I know currently the second
class running right now does not have

633
00:53:26,07 --> 00:53:30,45
a girl in it but there have been years
there have been other females and that's

634
00:53:30,46 --> 00:53:33,81
really. Power in numbers or a leg

635
00:53:33,94 --> 00:53:40,09
a couple girls may decide they want to
take that. But I just said that very point

636
00:53:40,10 --> 00:53:45,08
yeah I mean you could be just such a.
Thing to be able because if they had

637
00:53:45,09 --> 00:53:48,96
a couple. Yeah and not to have to call

638
00:53:48,97 --> 00:53:52,35
a contractor or call your dad you know
you move out into your first place or

639
00:53:52,36 --> 00:53:58,67
something and something simple goes wrong
but you don't know how to fix it so yeah

640
00:53:59,34 --> 00:54:03,81
I know if I was in high school I'd
be taking that course but I am in

641
00:54:03,82 --> 00:54:07,12
a seminar structure tomorrow we're going
to be having these discussions and I mean

642
00:54:07,13 --> 00:54:11,21
it's something that maybe as we talk
more with kids rather than showing power

643
00:54:11,22 --> 00:54:14,94
points about what's to offering groups
of one hundred you know we're meeting in

644
00:54:14,95 --> 00:54:16,34
groups of Tad It's more of

645
00:54:16,35 --> 00:54:21,35
a conversation and an encouragement to do
that so I appreciate that comment because

646
00:54:21,36 --> 00:54:25,65
sometimes you don't even think about that
right and I think of my conversation

647
00:54:25,66 --> 00:54:28,71
tomorrow morning with the county for are
they going to seminar or are they going to

648
00:54:28,72 --> 00:54:32,28
seminars to point that out.
Well we're going to have

649
00:54:32,29 --> 00:54:38,98
a snow day. I feel like
I've done for the watching

650
00:54:38,99 --> 00:54:44,11
audience out all the way to your home or
I was there you know you know I mean. I

651
00:54:44,12 --> 00:54:48,08
just I didn't want to share and I and I
debated but I had I want to the board to

652
00:54:48,09 --> 00:54:53,01
know was that we do this presentation every
year I did this principle but there was

653
00:54:53,02 --> 00:54:58,16
always always who was really the creator
and Andrew as you know the staff member

654
00:54:58,17 --> 00:55:04,51
who lost her battle with cancer and. Because
of that it was difficult and I just

655
00:55:04,52 --> 00:55:09,37
it's really kudos to Steph and Leslie
Teresa Neves Ole and everybody else who

656
00:55:09,38 --> 00:55:11,86
stepped up and really had to do

657
00:55:11,87 --> 00:55:16,53
a lot of work because you know we all get
used to have. Someone do all the work in

658
00:55:16,57 --> 00:55:21,42
behind the scenes and when that
change happened I know it was just

659
00:55:21,85 --> 00:55:24,48
a lot and the number of times I've been
over the high school where there are

660
00:55:24,85 --> 00:55:28,87
sequestered doing best and
learning how to schedule it's just

661
00:55:28,88 --> 00:55:35,16
a lot of work so so thank you. Thank you
oh yes John just back on your question.

662
00:55:36,67 --> 00:55:42,32
You know if you watch this old house
already. Sold house they have

663
00:55:42,33 --> 00:55:45,48
a mission of this year called something
like Generation Next or whatever where

664
00:55:45,49 --> 00:55:52,40
they're getting post high school kids
into training and it's basically fifty

665
00:55:52,41 --> 00:55:58,40
fifty based on that number and I read
somewhere with that and maybe you see it on

666
00:55:58,41 --> 00:55:58,76
T.V.

667
00:55:58,77 --> 00:56:03,68
But the fastest growing number of people
getting into flipping houses are women.

668
00:56:06,25 --> 00:56:12,56
And so I the same question I think it's
something to really talk. Absolutely I mean

669
00:56:12,57 --> 00:56:18,57
you could watch that show in class because
honestly the site showing you how to do

670
00:56:18,58 --> 00:56:23,57
it it's why you do it and that's part of
the whole thing that I think people are

671
00:56:23,58 --> 00:56:27,90
afraid of because it's not it's not
necessarily the pounding It's the why behind

672
00:56:28,88 --> 00:56:35,36
Think about for the counselors and certainly
I mean I know that flipping is easy

673
00:56:35,37 --> 00:56:39,73
and they make it look so easy and if you
know anything about it you know it's not

674
00:56:39,77 --> 00:56:40,76
and you have to have

675
00:56:40,77 --> 00:56:46,36
a lot of luck we do need to scale and this
is something that you know it could open

676
00:56:46,37 --> 00:56:49,25
doors for a lot of people
who may not think about

677
00:56:49,26 --> 00:56:53,01
a college career by they want some money
and they want to be in charge of their

678
00:56:53,02 --> 00:56:54,84
career and they want to be in charge of

679
00:56:54,89 --> 00:57:01,00
a business or whatever so yeah I think it
would open some doors Absolutely thank

680
00:57:01,01 --> 00:57:05,89
you well thank you for coming tonight I
think. You're positive feedback in your

681
00:57:05,90 --> 00:57:09,65
questions and thank you exciting time have

682
00:57:09,66 --> 00:57:15,62
a good night. Prepare for seminars
tomorrow OK. It will be here.

683
00:57:19,99 --> 00:57:24,45
That that actually wraps up superintend
report I know Claire asked to leave because

684
00:57:24,46 --> 00:57:24,74
she's got

685
00:57:24,75 --> 00:57:31,48
a lot of work to do so thank you so much
Claire. And then I turn it over to Dr

686
00:57:31,49 --> 00:57:37,93
stands to see. The evening have to
do presentations tonight one of.

687
00:57:39,22 --> 00:57:43,78
One of the final ones actually on the
elementary editions project update and then

688
00:57:44,45 --> 00:57:50,51
after that our annual update as part of our
ongoing budget process on the status of

689
00:57:50,55 --> 00:57:57,09
reserves the tax cap fund balance and so
forth so after that we'll you know with

690
00:57:57,10 --> 00:58:02,07
the next meeting it's kicked off into
the into the heart of the budget but

691
00:58:02,08 --> 00:58:08,02
tonight's fairly important night and in
terms of the the long process that we've

692
00:58:08,03 --> 00:58:09,41
been going through with regard to

693
00:58:09,42 --> 00:58:14,18
a capital project as you know we've been
at this for quite some time it's taken

694
00:58:14,19 --> 00:58:20,57
some twists and turns as as we've we've
waited in and changed and thought about

695
00:58:20,58 --> 00:58:26,17
what's going on in our community but tonight
in your agenda is the resolution that

696
00:58:26,18 --> 00:58:32,10
will authorize the date of the vote so at
the last couple of meetings we've been

697
00:58:32,11 --> 00:58:36,11
through most of the secret process there's
one more piece of seeker left to be done

698
00:58:36,12 --> 00:58:41,86
tonight that's in your gender and then after
that after you complete seeker of the

699
00:58:41,87 --> 00:58:46,83
boards free to move forward with setting
the vote and we hope that we'll do that

700
00:58:46,84 --> 00:58:48,62
tonight so just

701
00:58:49,10 --> 00:58:54,02
a brief very brief update to remind you
and the community where we're at with

702
00:58:54,03 --> 00:59:00,60
regard to the project what's in it. For
size what's changed because we've talked

703
00:59:00,61 --> 00:59:02,76
about this for a very
long time and it's taken

704
00:59:02,77 --> 00:59:07,22
a number of different forms as we've moved
through so we just want to make sure

705
00:59:07,23 --> 00:59:12,40
it's clear in everyone's mind what it is
that we're proposing to undertake and we

706
00:59:12,41 --> 00:59:17,28
just want to make sure that. As we move
forward tonight that we're worth we sort of

707
00:59:17,29 --> 00:59:17,41
have

708
00:59:17,42 --> 00:59:23,34
a clear vision of what it is that we're proposing
so four classrooms at each of Scribner

709
00:59:23,35 --> 00:59:28,76
cobbles and Indian landing so for additions
for classroom additions at each of

710
00:59:28,77 --> 00:59:33,49
those buildings at Scribner We'll also
be adding some ancillary space to

711
00:59:33,50 --> 00:59:39,65
accommodate growing and Rob and so that
includes expansions of the gym the gym

712
00:59:39,69 --> 00:59:46,61
expansion cafeteria and all the buildings
you'll see changes to parking drop off

713
00:59:46,62 --> 00:59:52,95
and so on so that's true it's good or at
Kabul's. In addition to the additions

714
00:59:52,96 --> 00:59:58,25
they'll be changes to the cafeteria line
that bill that cafeteria is internal to

715
00:59:58,26 --> 01:00:03,88
the building so it's not being expanded
but there are also extensive changes to

716
01:00:03,89 --> 01:00:10,80
parking and parent drop off. At Indian
landing the cafeteria expansion

717
01:00:10,86 --> 01:00:13,46
in the back of the
building changes to create

718
01:00:13,47 --> 01:00:18,90
a parent drop off immediately behind that
cafeteria and changes in front of the

719
01:00:18,91 --> 01:00:22,51
building to the bus
loop too and to provide

720
01:00:22,52 --> 01:00:29,36
a safer and better situation for parents
and buses dropping off. That's changed

721
01:00:29,37 --> 01:00:32,86
a bit and I just want to point this out
one last time we won't talk about what's

722
01:00:32,87 --> 01:00:38,96
changed after tonight but we've only had
one previous look at at at what's been

723
01:00:38,97 --> 01:00:40,26
different so as

724
01:00:40,27 --> 01:00:46,77
a result of our final scope review and in
numerous meetings that Dr Putnam led in

725
01:00:46,78 --> 01:00:49,67
the elementary school we've we've made

726
01:00:49,68 --> 01:00:55,08
a few changes to the scope that we've
talked about previously so at Scribner.

727
01:00:56,51 --> 01:01:00,26
Ever pretty much everything that we've
talked about all along is there the

728
01:01:00,27 --> 01:01:05,78
cafeteria expansion is there but there's
been some modifications from the original

729
01:01:05,79 --> 01:01:11,86
mostly in terms of outside seating area
and so on but the cafeteria is still

730
01:01:11,87 --> 01:01:16,70
included an expansion of the cafeteria.
That's one of the smallest class cafeterias

731
01:01:16,71 --> 01:01:21,80
in our district with largest in Rome and
it needs the additional space but we.

732
01:01:23,16 --> 01:01:24,19
Tweaked around the edges

733
01:01:24,20 --> 01:01:29,13
a little bit of what that space would
look like Kabul's the renovations at the

734
01:01:29,67 --> 01:01:35,16
cafeteria service liners are still included
we did remove However from the scope

735
01:01:35,40 --> 01:01:41,14
the gym addition and the loading dock to
the existing gym we feel is adequate for

736
01:01:41,15 --> 01:01:47,39
the. Capacity of that building and the
loading dock we elected to remove because

737
01:01:47,40 --> 01:01:53,96
it's. For one thing it's going to be made
of all and for another reason is that

738
01:01:53,97 --> 01:01:55,46
it's really at

739
01:01:55,47 --> 01:01:59,48
a crucial point of the building in terms
of utilities coming into the building and

740
01:01:59,49 --> 01:02:05,55
we worried about the expense of that so
it's been removed and no changes really it

741
01:02:05,56 --> 01:02:09,42
can at Indian landing while the
cafeteria expansions were not

742
01:02:09,43 --> 01:02:10,77
a double after our S.T.D.

743
01:02:10,78 --> 01:02:17,39
Review elected due included at both Scrivener
and and India mining because of the

744
01:02:17,40 --> 01:02:24,00
need. I won't go through these in detail
other than to point out that they differ

745
01:02:24,01 --> 01:02:29,61
slightly you can look at these on line if
you have and they are on line already if

746
01:02:29,62 --> 01:02:35,31
you have the interest but there change just
very slightly to reflect those changes

747
01:02:35,32 --> 01:02:41,27
that I just discussed Scrivener site plan
no real changes there you can see here at

748
01:02:41,28 --> 01:02:47,44
the classroom previously we showed the gym
addition now we show the four classroom

749
01:02:47,45 --> 01:02:53,64
edition alone. Again changes to the site
plan only to reflect the elimination of

750
01:02:53,65 --> 01:02:59,38
the gym space. Indian landing classrooms
this is not change from the previous

751
01:02:59,39 --> 01:03:04,92
versions that you've already looked at
nor has the Indian landing site plan so

752
01:03:04,93 --> 01:03:09,49
that's consistent with what you've seen all
along the other important part of this

753
01:03:09,50 --> 01:03:16,44
project has to do with buildings around
so the. And. Transportation So we

754
01:03:16,45 --> 01:03:22,55
will be. Included in the in this project
is the purchase of an eleven acre parcel

755
01:03:22,56 --> 01:03:28,83
at thirteen sixty four Jackson Road we
intend to build on that parcel I shared

756
01:03:29,38 --> 01:03:34,30
a facility with for transportation
and buildings and grounds moving the

757
01:03:34,31 --> 01:03:40,50
transportation function off a five mile
line and out to that site again then

758
01:03:40,51 --> 01:03:46,32
a loss will be shared with the buildings
and ground staff so we'll be moving most

759
01:03:46,33 --> 01:03:52,48
of our. Most of our activity out of five
mile line and out to Jackson Road there

760
01:03:52,49 --> 01:03:57,70
still will remain some work there we
intend to maintain at five mile line road

761
01:03:57,71 --> 01:04:03,62
we'll. Do some renovation to the
existing bus garage to turn it into

762
01:04:03,63 --> 01:04:05,74
a bus wash and also

763
01:04:05,75 --> 01:04:11,12
a network operating center we intend think
we will always maintain some buses that

764
01:04:11,13 --> 01:04:17,04
five mile road route out of there rather
than all out of Jackson Road but that use

765
01:04:17,05 --> 01:04:23,31
at that site will be greatly reduced this
isn't it this is the red bounding box

766
01:04:23,32 --> 01:04:28,27
shows the site at Jack the corner of Jackson
and Plank Road I think we all know it

767
01:04:28,28 --> 01:04:34,41
is the portion of the berry turkey farm.
This is schematic of what it would look

768
01:04:34,56 --> 01:04:37,48
what the facility would
look like on that site and

769
01:04:37,49 --> 01:04:43,69
a more detail drawing of.
What the internals of that

770
01:04:44,27 --> 01:04:49,21
facility would look like this is the five
mile line Road site the two wide white

771
01:04:49,22 --> 01:04:52,06
boxes are not being touched
at all in this project that's

772
01:04:52,07 --> 01:04:57,60
a pole barn and the existing office
building the blue box that is the existing

773
01:04:57,84 --> 01:05:03,25
maintenance facility for the busses will
be partially renovated the top here you

774
01:05:03,26 --> 01:05:07,81
can see is sort of the existing big
open space that it is right now for

775
01:05:08,19 --> 01:05:11,78
a bus garage it'll be split up a
little bit to turn be turned into

776
01:05:11,79 --> 01:05:16,30
a waiting room as will be rooting
out of there a bus wash and

777
01:05:16,31 --> 01:05:22,75
a network operating smattering green.
And finally there is in this project

778
01:05:22,76 --> 01:05:25,05
a little bit of scope for the building for

779
01:05:25,26 --> 01:05:32,14
a trail and high school in terms of
renovation and repair work. That

780
01:05:32,15 --> 01:05:36,98
was identified in the building condition
survey in the last meeting we added to

781
01:05:36,99 --> 01:05:43,47
this scope the RIP replacement of the
existing chiller plant at the high school as

782
01:05:43,48 --> 01:05:49,04
you know that's out currently out of
operation it is past its end of useful life

783
01:05:49,71 --> 01:05:54,76
and so we added it to this as the most
expeditious and cost effective way to to be

784
01:05:54,77 --> 01:06:00,20
able to address that. With all the changes
and you've seen different budgets as we

785
01:06:00,21 --> 01:06:05,44
moved along we are at total estimated
budget of forty two million three hundred

786
01:06:05,45 --> 01:06:11,62
thousand dollars so that's what our
proposition will propose. This is

787
01:06:12,55 --> 01:06:13,63
you have in your package

788
01:06:13,64 --> 01:06:18,01
a much longer version of this with all
of the required legal language this is

789
01:06:18,02 --> 01:06:19,05
already too long for

790
01:06:19,06 --> 01:06:24,19
a slide but I just really wanted you to be
able to see sort of those key three key

791
01:06:24,20 --> 01:06:25,79
points that total budget

792
01:06:25,80 --> 01:06:31,74
a total estimated authorization not estimate
in total authorization based on our

793
01:06:31,75 --> 01:06:36,18
estimated budget of forty two million three
hundred ten so that's the amount we may

794
01:06:36,19 --> 01:06:42,25
not spend more than we are proposing that
of that we will use seventeen million

795
01:06:42,26 --> 01:06:47,16
dollars from our capital reserves and we
will have authority to borrow up to twenty

796
01:06:47,17 --> 01:06:53,89
five three ten to the balance of. The
balance of the cost of the project.

797
01:06:54,82 --> 01:07:00,54
Here again are those three key assumptions
forty two million dollars three ten

798
01:07:00,55 --> 01:07:03,67
voter authorization the money
from reserves and just

799
01:07:03,68 --> 01:07:08,50
a reminder that the state of New York shares
in the cost of these projects so about

800
01:07:08,51 --> 01:07:13,15
seventy four percent of this project of the
eligible expenses of the project not of

801
01:07:13,16 --> 01:07:19,90
every dollar spent but of the eligible
expenses is is aided for us at seventy about

802
01:07:19,91 --> 01:07:26,36
seventy four percent this is this the
timing in part of this project what we've

803
01:07:26,37 --> 01:07:32,19
been working towards it for some years
because we know the changes that are coming

804
01:07:32,28 --> 01:07:32,98
to us as

805
01:07:32,99 --> 01:07:37,47
a result of the refinancing of our outstanding
debt it's going to create additional

806
01:07:37,48 --> 01:07:43,83
state aid as we move forward we reduced
our expenses the state is tied to

807
01:07:44,80 --> 01:07:50,24
is somewhat independent of that at this
point so we'll have an increase in state

808
01:07:50,25 --> 01:07:55,56
aid into the district we're using that in
part to offset some of the expenses of

809
01:07:55,57 --> 01:08:00,96
this project so our goal here is to
maintain the positive cash flow the flow of

810
01:08:00,97 --> 01:08:07,62
cash over the mill over the expenses so
the stage or district in comparison to

811
01:08:07,63 --> 01:08:13,20
our in comparison to our expenses for debt
service is right now positive by about

812
01:08:13,21 --> 01:08:13,78
a million and

813
01:08:13,79 --> 01:08:17,53
a half dollars we receive every year because
of Cash projects that we've done in

814
01:08:17,54 --> 01:08:19,52
the past about a million and

815
01:08:19,53 --> 01:08:25,75
a half and stayed more than we spend in
debt service we'd like we'd like to manage

816
01:08:25,76 --> 01:08:28,03
that and not allow that to
grow because it creates

817
01:08:28,04 --> 01:08:33,39
a problem in future budgets but also take
advantage of that opportunity so that

818
01:08:33,48 --> 01:08:39,75
this is the current plan for financing that
of that potential death the twenty five

819
01:08:39,76 --> 01:08:44,43
million dollars in debt and as you can
see what it does is it levels that that

820
01:08:44,49 --> 01:08:47,76
positive cash flow out into
the future pushes it out

821
01:08:47,77 --> 01:08:53,58
a number of years. And allows us to
continue on and in that stable environment.

822
01:08:54,52 --> 01:08:59,56
Terms of the timeline we've looked at
this at lots of meetings as things have

823
01:08:59,57 --> 01:09:04,61
turned blue as we've moved along tonight
at December twelfth we'll schedule the

824
01:09:04,62 --> 01:09:10,08
vote date the tentative date in your packet
is February thirteenth in between then

825
01:09:10,09 --> 01:09:12,98
and now we're in the process right
now of discussing and scheduling

826
01:09:12,99 --> 01:09:17,67
a public meeting will want to have one
more public big public meeting to explain

827
01:09:17,68 --> 01:09:24,43
this to the. To the. To our
taxpayers and Nancy of we picked

828
01:09:24,44 --> 01:09:30,42
a date but it's just went through February
fifth Thank you know we'll be finalizing

829
01:09:30,43 --> 01:09:36,07
that and making that knowing we're in the
process now where we've begun the process

830
01:09:36,08 --> 01:09:42,79
of. The newsletter that will inform folks
about this and provide them additional

831
01:09:42,80 --> 01:09:47,95
information we'll have that public airing
and then again the vote on February

832
01:09:47,96 --> 01:09:53,44
thirteenth. Assuming that the votes are
positive this is we wanted to provide some

833
01:09:53,45 --> 01:09:54,15
information on

834
01:09:54,16 --> 01:10:00,13
a tentative timeline so we'll split it up
this will probably be submitted at least

835
01:10:00,14 --> 01:10:05,89
in two different packages to s.e.d for
approval but we would include the chiller

836
01:10:05,90 --> 01:10:12,21
work because it's fairly modest. Because
there's some interest in getting that done

837
01:10:12,26 --> 01:10:13,27
fairly quickly as

838
01:10:13,28 --> 01:10:19,91
a repair. Would be submitting that very
quickly after the vote we'd anticipate an

839
01:10:19,92 --> 01:10:25,58
s.e.d review between March and November
twenty eighth teen if that's true we would

840
01:10:25,59 --> 01:10:31,99
be able to bid and award at the end of
the eighty nine thousand school year and

841
01:10:32,00 --> 01:10:38,19
then over the course of the summer the
summer of nineteen complete the required

842
01:10:38,20 --> 01:10:43,17
construction so that as we come back to
school for the nineteen twenty school year

843
01:10:43,74 --> 01:10:49,97
that plant would be back into operation
the remainder of the work could look like

844
01:10:49,98 --> 01:10:55,44
this so again we need to were moving out
of the plan. Stage we're moving out of the

845
01:10:55,45 --> 01:10:55,95
design of

846
01:10:55,96 --> 01:11:01,74
a project stage and will be begin moving
into the actual design of the project some

847
01:11:01,75 --> 01:11:07,09
phasing work will have to decide what we
build and when but tentatively this is

848
01:11:07,10 --> 01:11:11,56
what one schedule could look like so March
through October of eighteen would be

849
01:11:11,57 --> 01:11:17,20
designed the actual completion of the
drawings the engineering and the

850
01:11:17,21 --> 01:11:18,53
architectural work for

851
01:11:18,54 --> 01:11:23,82
a submission to assay by November
of twenty eighteen we asked

852
01:11:23,83 --> 01:11:28,26
a maid at the current schedule that that
were would work would be at S C D for

853
01:11:28,27 --> 01:11:33,83
review between November of eighteen and
September of nineteen once we receive

854
01:11:33,84 --> 01:11:35,00
approval from S.C.T.

855
01:11:35,01 --> 01:11:39,45
Which is our building permit once we have
the necessary building permit we can

856
01:11:39,46 --> 01:11:45,45
build an award contracts and then begin
construction perhaps in mid does in mid two

857
01:11:45,46 --> 01:11:51,48
thousand and nineteen so December of nineteen
and construction would continue. For

858
01:11:51,49 --> 01:11:58,19
the entire project through three
year period August. Twenty

859
01:11:58,99 --> 01:12:04,06
hard to say that even twenty
twenty two. So you know it's

860
01:12:04,07 --> 01:12:06,94
a long process but there is certainly

861
01:12:06,95 --> 01:12:10,08
a lot of work to be done
and we want to give people

862
01:12:10,09 --> 01:12:15,67
a sense of that as they go towards the poles
so with that there was fairly quick I

863
01:12:15,68 --> 01:12:17,46
think in a bit of

864
01:12:17,47 --> 01:12:21,17
a ten thousand foot overview but I know
you've been through it before and much of

865
01:12:21,18 --> 01:12:25,24
it in greater detail than this so are
there any questions what members.

866
01:12:30,42 --> 01:12:36,86
Thank you very much so with
that. I would like to talk

867
01:12:36,87 --> 01:12:43,51
a little bit about. Fiscal stress our
budget forecast reserves and budget

868
01:12:43,52 --> 01:12:47,24
forecasts reserves and I'd also like to
thank Vic and Gary for showing up on

869
01:12:47,25 --> 01:12:50,07
a snowy night when you didn't
have to I appreciate it.

870
01:13:05,77 --> 01:13:11,75
Thank you very much thank thank you very
much for coming. And thank YOU HAVE TO

871
01:13:11,82 --> 01:13:17,24
THANK YOU THANK YOU I'M GOING to spare.
I have lots of information here.

872
01:13:18,51 --> 01:13:20,09
I know you have the X.

873
01:13:20,10 --> 01:13:23,25
Tract of the powerpoint which goes on for

874
01:13:23,34 --> 01:13:28,50
a great number of slides I'm not going to
go through much of it in detail it's here

875
01:13:28,51 --> 01:13:32,94
for your information as is the much more
complete package that you received as part

876
01:13:32,95 --> 01:13:36,89
of your budget package but I just want to
talk about some of the highlights of this

877
01:13:37,59 --> 01:13:42,07
and review for the board really what it
all means as we move forward into this

878
01:13:42,08 --> 01:13:47,40
budget process which is the sort of the
key part of this so we begin our kind of

879
01:13:47,48 --> 01:13:52,41
conversation we always begin our conversation
where the comptroller begins which is

880
01:13:52,42 --> 01:13:57,55
a discussion of fiscal stress the
comptroller instituted this fiscal stress

881
01:13:57,56 --> 01:14:04,36
analysis or monitoring
project. As. With really as

882
01:14:04,37 --> 01:14:06,24
a result of the tax cap and as

883
01:14:06,25 --> 01:14:12,40
a result of sort of the problems that
school districts have begun to have as they

884
01:14:12,59 --> 01:14:18,86
struggle with life in that environment
so and so you know and analysis of our

885
01:14:18,87 --> 01:14:22,72
budget condition and where we're going sort
of be should begin with where you're at

886
01:14:22,76 --> 01:14:28,52
and what you're facing and so so we talk
about how we begin our conversation with

887
01:14:28,84 --> 01:14:34,38
well how are we are we financially healthy
are we under stress. And I and I have

888
01:14:34,47 --> 01:14:40,04
pointed out in the past that it's really
you know it's we all have health might be

889
01:14:40,05 --> 01:14:45,85
good or might be not so good but we all
have it and that's sort of true of fiscal

890
01:14:45,86 --> 01:14:46,49
health as well it's

891
01:14:46,50 --> 01:14:52,67
a continuum and we move along that continuum
for better or worse as we move along

892
01:14:52,68 --> 01:14:59,17
so. In terms of fiscal stress. Though the

893
01:14:59,67 --> 01:15:06,24
components of what it looks like essentially
are are you solvent can you pay your

894
01:15:06,25 --> 01:15:10,91
bills do you have cash solvency Are you
good for thirty or sixty days is dear

895
01:15:10,92 --> 01:15:16,75
revenues equally or expanded to. Long
run solvent see is can you meet your

896
01:15:16,76 --> 01:15:22,75
obligations out into the. Future and for
us you know these are all possible sort of

897
01:15:22,76 --> 01:15:28,46
academic definitions of fiscal Strasser of
solvency but for us what we really care

898
01:15:28,47 --> 01:15:33,58
about is fiscal or I'm sorry is service
level solvency what our taxpayers care

899
01:15:33,59 --> 01:15:34,50
about what we care about as

900
01:15:34,51 --> 01:15:38,83
a board and about school administrators
are can we continue to provide what we

901
01:15:38,84 --> 01:15:44,18
provide can we put continue to provide the
level and quality of services that our

902
01:15:44,19 --> 01:15:49,73
communities come to expect and the comptroller
proposes to help us in that analysis

903
01:15:49,74 --> 01:15:56,38
with bat with his monitoring system so they
provide seven environmental. I'm sorry

904
01:15:56,49 --> 01:16:01,89
seven financial indicators six environmental
indicators they're not perfect they're

905
01:16:01,90 --> 01:16:06,93
not perhaps even the best but they were
selected by the comptroller because it's

906
01:16:06,94 --> 01:16:13,59
data that he can get fairly easily
and they say something about the

907
01:16:13,60 --> 01:16:18,75
condition of the school district so. I won't
go through these there's there's more

908
01:16:18,76 --> 01:16:22,78
information about them in your packet but
I'll just touch on what they are and you

909
01:16:22,79 --> 01:16:29,05
can see because I've graphed them
about where we are in Penfield so

910
01:16:29,62 --> 01:16:34,48
change in property value if your property
value over time is declining it probably

911
01:16:34,49 --> 01:16:37,85
says something about the health of your
school district our property values have

912
01:16:37,86 --> 01:16:42,08
increased and you can see in Monroe County
at least we're about in the middle of

913
01:16:42,09 --> 01:16:44,75
the pack change unenrolled meant this is

914
01:16:44,76 --> 01:16:48,73
a multi-year change in enrollment enrollments
across all of Monroe County have

915
01:16:48,74 --> 01:16:51,27
decreased You know this is

916
01:16:51,28 --> 01:16:55,80
a trailing average I'll speak more to that
end. A little bit but it's from twelve

917
01:16:55,81 --> 01:17:01,77
through sixteen. We know tonight that
our and Romans are increasing at the

918
01:17:01,78 --> 01:17:07,42
elementary level and in fact you can see
here that overall we lost during that

919
01:17:07,43 --> 01:17:13,29
period of time the least of the least
of his tricks and Monroe county budget

920
01:17:13,30 --> 01:17:18,33
approval percentages we routinely pass or
budget at the sixty percent level that

921
01:17:18,34 --> 01:17:23,54
hasn't changed really. Over the course of
the last three years our graduation rate

922
01:17:23,55 --> 01:17:27,47
is amongst the three highest
in the county and we have

923
01:17:27,48 --> 01:17:34,47
a very low rate of free and reduced lunch.
Students in the free and reduced lunch

924
01:17:34,48 --> 01:17:40,68
program so you can sort of intuitively
guess I think the answer for those.

925
01:17:41,80 --> 01:17:48,67
Those those environmental factors that
the comptroller would not project us to

926
01:17:48,68 --> 01:17:54,22
be in fiscal stress in terms of the
financial indicators that story pretty much

927
01:17:54,23 --> 01:17:59,85
carries over assigned fund balance over
expenditures so this is how much of your

928
01:17:59,86 --> 01:18:06,12
budget are you appropriating. In essentially
one shot revenue and as you can see

929
01:18:06,44 --> 01:18:06,68
more

930
01:18:06,69 --> 01:18:10,33
a little bit above the average for the
county but pretty close to the middle of the

931
01:18:10,34 --> 01:18:16,48
pack total fund balance over expenditures
were high but we've been building up to

932
01:18:16,98 --> 01:18:22,48
tonight's capital project with
your adoption tonight. The

933
01:18:23,43 --> 01:18:29,19
resolution for tonight's capital project
seventeen million comes out of that total

934
01:18:29,20 --> 01:18:33,61
fund balance we fall back well into the
middle of the pack and we'll begin again

935
01:18:34,58 --> 01:18:38,92
building towards our next project
operating deficit so again not

936
01:18:38,93 --> 01:18:42,71
a concern for us cash and cash as

937
01:18:42,72 --> 01:18:47,59
a percentage of short term cash
and short term investments as

938
01:18:47,60 --> 01:18:54,43
a percentage over liabilities
again. While we're certain. Not the

939
01:18:54,44 --> 01:18:58,28
highest We're in about the
middle of the pack and cash as

940
01:18:58,29 --> 01:19:03,31
a percentage of monthly expenditures again
in the middle of the pack so I think it

941
01:19:03,32 --> 01:19:03,68
shouldn't be

942
01:19:03,69 --> 01:19:08,08
a surprise to you based on the Comptroller's
report then that we are not in fiscal

943
01:19:08,09 --> 01:19:14,14
stress are score for fiscal stress for the
upcoming year we estimate to be at about

944
01:19:14,15 --> 01:19:19,53
six percent environmental zero and the
comptroller doesn't consider us in stress

945
01:19:19,54 --> 01:19:25,25
until we had twenty five percent so. Not
in stress nothing to worry about right

946
01:19:26,05 --> 01:19:32,81
the. The the thing about that whole
system though is that it's a is that it's

947
01:19:32,82 --> 01:19:37,87
a trailing system it looks backwards you
know by the time you by the time you're

948
01:19:37,88 --> 01:19:43,07
borrowing money for example one of the
one of the. Two it were two of the

949
01:19:43,08 --> 01:19:46,41
indicators they don't even include
because we don't borrow on

950
01:19:46,42 --> 01:19:49,43
a short term basis for cash
flow but I think that's

951
01:19:49,44 --> 01:19:51,18
a good example once you're borrowing on

952
01:19:51,19 --> 01:19:55,14
a short term basis for cash flow all of
your other indicators are probably bad

953
01:19:55,96 --> 01:20:00,15
you'll be in fiscal stress but it's sort
of too late it's sort of the driving off

954
01:20:00,16 --> 01:20:03,40
of a cliff analogy your wheels are in
the air and they tell you you've got

955
01:20:03,41 --> 01:20:09,45
a problem so so the idea is that you
should be looking forward rather than

956
01:20:09,46 --> 01:20:13,09
backwards backwards informs us it tells
us how we're doing it tells us what the

957
01:20:13,10 --> 01:20:18,45
comptroller has to say about us but it
doesn't really inform our future and we have

958
01:20:18,46 --> 01:20:24,10
that I own on service level solvency can
we continue to do this into the future and

959
01:20:24,11 --> 01:20:24,61
that has

960
01:20:24,62 --> 01:20:28,96
a lot to do with decisions that the board
makes and the and that we make as we move

961
01:20:28,97 --> 01:20:29,62
forward into

962
01:20:29,63 --> 01:20:35,46
a budget so about seventy five percent of
our salary is of our budget is salary and

963
01:20:35,47 --> 01:20:38,29
benefits everything else
composes only about

964
01:20:38,30 --> 01:20:43,74
a quarter in terms of the revenue side
of our budget sixty five percent of our

965
01:20:43,75 --> 01:20:50,39
budget is provided to us by the taxpayers
and that's kept. Twenty seven percent of

966
01:20:50,40 --> 01:20:55,85
our of our budget comes to us in the form
of state aid so all the other stuff that

967
01:20:55,86 --> 01:20:59,86
we spend lots of time worrying about and
talking about really only composes eight

968
01:20:59,87 --> 01:21:05,68
percent of our budget sixty five percent
of our budget kept by that tax gap while

969
01:21:05,69 --> 01:21:06,30
it's not really

970
01:21:06,31 --> 01:21:11,76
a cap we can exceed it it's exceedingly
difficult to do so so you know there are

971
01:21:11,77 --> 01:21:17,85
some challenges there. And stayed out of
our hands you know we can advocate we can

972
01:21:17,86 --> 01:21:23,70
advocate along with our peers but really
the the decisions. That are made and the

973
01:21:23,71 --> 01:21:29,78
money that's available really isn't something
that's within our control. I always

974
01:21:29,79 --> 01:21:34,37
look back to history with regard to
that that those two slides are not any

975
01:21:34,38 --> 01:21:37,60
different than they ever have
been we've never you know we're

976
01:21:37,61 --> 01:21:41,78
a service organization schools are about
teachers in front of kids and that's

977
01:21:41,79 --> 01:21:47,22
people so you know will always be the
majority of or of our budget will always be

978
01:21:47,23 --> 01:21:54,17
staff. And those other factors Penfield
school district like Penfield will

979
01:21:54,18 --> 01:21:57,54
always have the majority of its money
come from the taxpayer so that's not

980
01:21:57,55 --> 01:21:58,94
different and so

981
01:21:58,95 --> 01:22:05,45
a little bit of history I think provides
perspective or we've managed. For ten

982
01:22:05,46 --> 01:22:09,22
years now for a decade we were a tax
capped a street before there was

983
01:22:09,23 --> 01:22:15,93
a tax cap we had some higher years
certainly. Historically but we've

984
01:22:15,94 --> 01:22:17,62
managed through

985
01:22:17,63 --> 01:22:23,08
a very long process to maintain within
one point eight percent ten year average

986
01:22:23,65 --> 01:22:29,16
that's on the levy and you can see the
rate actually. A bit last than that

987
01:22:29,17 --> 01:22:33,02
a negative in some years depending on
growth of property in the community so I

988
01:22:33,03 --> 01:22:33,59
think we've done

989
01:22:33,60 --> 01:22:39,20
a good job. So what do we so what about
this year what as we look forward we've

990
01:22:39,21 --> 01:22:42,28
talked about fiscal stress we've talked

991
01:22:42,29 --> 01:22:46,58
a little bit about budget and the pressures
that that's going to put on our budget

992
01:22:46,59 --> 01:22:51,68
as we move forward we know tonight what
we didn't know the last time we talked

993
01:22:51,69 --> 01:22:58,02
about this one additional factor for the
tax base growth which is the amount of

994
01:22:58,64 --> 01:23:04,21
growth in our in our community of real
bricks and mortar property so bought half of

995
01:23:04,22 --> 01:23:08,58
one percent so that's we've had
some bigger years but this is

996
01:23:08,59 --> 01:23:14,09
a more typical year for us and this is
what it looks like when you compare it to

997
01:23:14,10 --> 01:23:20,35
the county so certainly you know Webster
Spencer port Fairport growing if I

998
01:23:20,36 --> 01:23:24,89
included Victor on this they're blowing
up in terms of you know the increase of

999
01:23:24,90 --> 01:23:31,79
assessed valuation. But.
For us more typical year

1000
01:23:31,80 --> 01:23:38,58
and about close to the average for
the county. So we we look at it

1001
01:23:38,97 --> 01:23:43,89
so with those concerns we try and
look at where we're at with regard to

1002
01:23:44,43 --> 01:23:50,31
a forecast of budget as we
move into the future so. I.

1003
01:23:51,35 --> 01:23:57,75
Have included in terms of forecast
what you build on and I forecast state

1004
01:23:57,76 --> 01:24:02,04
increasing at three percent per year into
the future no changes in debt service

1005
01:24:02,92 --> 01:24:06,66
there will be huge changes in debt service
as we move forward but I'm assuming that

1006
01:24:06,67 --> 01:24:11,04
they'll be offset by state increases we're
trying our whole plan is to try and keep

1007
01:24:11,05 --> 01:24:17,07
out of the Million Five positive so if
they both change. Proportionally it

1008
01:24:17,08 --> 01:24:21,53
shouldn't affect our forecast I assume
a little bit of flattening of T.R.S.

1009
01:24:21,54 --> 01:24:22,06
In the R.S.

1010
01:24:22,07 --> 01:24:25,85
But I do assume that it increases steadily
into the future we don't know that

1011
01:24:25,86 --> 01:24:30,99
that's true but that's the assumption we
make here. And I assume that we always are

1012
01:24:31,00 --> 01:24:31,11
at

1013
01:24:31,12 --> 01:24:37,55
a maximum tax cap and if I do that you can
see we pop up in the near future in terms

1014
01:24:37,56 --> 01:24:43,10
of budget surplus because we've been
putting money aside and in past years for.

1015
01:24:44,19 --> 01:24:48,90
For capital projects I don't continue I
don't propose that that continues in the

1016
01:24:48,91 --> 01:24:54,46
forecast it will what should but what this
really shows is that March downward that

1017
01:24:54,47 --> 01:25:00,81
all that ever never ending March downward.
Budget surplus as we move forward and

1018
01:25:00,82 --> 01:25:02,73
really that's not

1019
01:25:02,85 --> 01:25:08,82
a promise really that's just our reminder
that the decisions that we're making as

1020
01:25:08,83 --> 01:25:14,04
we move forward sort of compound So sixty
five percent of our budget or some so I

1021
01:25:14,05 --> 01:25:18,64
seventy five percent of our budget in
terms of salaries and benefits you know

1022
01:25:18,74 --> 01:25:23,34
health insurance for example increasing
at ten percent which is what I include in

1023
01:25:23,35 --> 01:25:30,01
the forecast salaries increasing.
And those leveraging against. In my

1024
01:25:30,02 --> 01:25:36,60
forecast increasing costs
of. Ers and T.R.'s

1025
01:25:36,84 --> 01:25:37,78
are going to be

1026
01:25:37,79 --> 01:25:42,47
a strain for our budget as we move into
the future were OK I think is what this

1027
01:25:42,48 --> 01:25:48,36
tells us in the short term we are well
reserved our budget is stable Our budget is

1028
01:25:48,37 --> 01:25:49,73
in a good spot and we are in

1029
01:25:49,74 --> 01:25:55,63
a spot to be able to maintain our programs
and our services This shows for five

1030
01:25:55,64 --> 01:26:01,19
years. Based on this set of assumptions
lots can change we keep updating this we

1031
01:26:01,20 --> 01:26:04,69
look at this every year we push it out we've
pushed it out further into the future

1032
01:26:04,70 --> 01:26:11,30
we've been more concerned but just the
idea is that we we know if we look

1033
01:26:11,31 --> 01:26:15,75
backwards we know we're fiscally stable
if we look forwards we know that we're in

1034
01:26:15,79 --> 01:26:22,46
a state that we are. OK in the near
future but I think then always I want to.

1035
01:26:23,50 --> 01:26:25,90
Just remind the board and
ring that warning bell

1036
01:26:25,91 --> 01:26:29,20
a little bit that the decisions that we
make now are going to have impacts into the

1037
01:26:29,21 --> 01:26:34,55
future but in the meantime our budgeting
process the conservative budgeting process

1038
01:26:34,56 --> 01:26:36,46
that we've always use generates

1039
01:26:36,47 --> 01:26:42,08
a surplus. I go through in your package
and it's there is some more discussion of

1040
01:26:42,09 --> 01:26:48,90
this in your in your. In your
in the actual package also

1041
01:26:48,91 --> 01:26:51,92
includes you also have access of
course to the Power Point but

1042
01:26:51,93 --> 01:26:56,59
a little discussion about what those
surpluses have historically been and how

1043
01:26:56,60 --> 01:27:00,85
they've been managed and here you can
see as we move through the year the

1044
01:27:00,86 --> 01:27:05,90
differences are very early are fairly
small but the actual total amount of the

1045
01:27:05,91 --> 01:27:08,16
surplus as a percentage of budget not

1046
01:27:08,17 --> 01:27:15,16
a lot. In fact over the course of the last
six years just about two percent it's

1047
01:27:15,17 --> 01:27:19,80
been three to two popped up a bit
last year and we've been aiming for

1048
01:27:19,81 --> 01:27:25,23
a budget surplus just on the expense side
of five percent we've been trending at

1049
01:27:25,24 --> 01:27:28,47
around six and last year we popped up

1050
01:27:28,64 --> 01:27:33,60
a little bit so we'll need to tend to
that as we move forward into this budget

1051
01:27:33,61 --> 01:27:38,16
process I think over the. Course of the
next couple years actually on the expense

1052
01:27:38,17 --> 01:27:43,57
side at least that's going to solve itself
as we move into what I'm forecasting to

1053
01:27:43,58 --> 01:27:49,30
be much more difficult times terms of that
recommended target for variance I said

1054
01:27:49,31 --> 01:27:54,80
we were aiming for five we've been at six
and seven state guideline or the state

1055
01:27:54,86 --> 01:27:59,13
law for there is no law for schools there's
no guideline there's no comptrollers

1056
01:27:59,14 --> 01:28:05,99
suggested there's not and but for
towns there's ten percent. Or

1057
01:28:05,100 --> 01:28:09,45
auditor would always say it's proportional
to fund balance which is why I got

1058
01:28:09,46 --> 01:28:13,56
a question about you know why do we
include appropriated fund balance in our

1059
01:28:13,57 --> 01:28:14,69
reserve report it's not

1060
01:28:14,70 --> 01:28:20,33
a reserve and of course it's not but the
more you appropriate really the more you

1061
01:28:20,34 --> 01:28:23,19
need because the more you know the looser

1062
01:28:23,20 --> 01:28:29,21
a budget you need actually because you need
to be able to manage that. You need to

1063
01:28:29,22 --> 01:28:35,75
be able to manage that revenue source on
that side or your budget so. We're at

1064
01:28:35,79 --> 01:28:42,34
about two percent. So that would that would
it would indicate that we should be in

1065
01:28:42,49 --> 01:28:43,95
probably at a low of two and

1066
01:28:43,96 --> 01:28:49,78
a half to perhaps five we're targeting five
and we'll consider continue to monitor

1067
01:28:49,79 --> 01:28:53,45
that as we move into future years. Spent

1068
01:28:53,46 --> 01:28:58,58
a little bit of time comparing in both
the document and this Power Point our

1069
01:28:58,59 --> 01:29:02,73
reserves our philosophy around the reserves
the comptroller suggests that we talk

1070
01:29:02,74 --> 01:29:09,73
about this and comparing our our.
Philosophy for this really with

1071
01:29:09,74 --> 01:29:14,38
what the comptroller guidance would offer
and I won't read this certainly there's

1072
01:29:14,39 --> 01:29:20,60
lots here but it sensually we line up with.
The Comptroller's philosophy reserves

1073
01:29:20,61 --> 01:29:24,44
are necessary he would agree with that
reserves need to be managed we need to be

1074
01:29:24,45 --> 01:29:30,77
thoughtful about how we how we establish
them and how we use them tonight it's

1075
01:29:30,78 --> 01:29:35,20
a great example of that we're managing our
budget for many many many years. As into

1076
01:29:35,21 --> 01:29:40,06
the future an important component of our
budget and in part using reserves using

1077
01:29:40,07 --> 01:29:46,87
capital projects to do necessary work
and also to be able to. Also be able

1078
01:29:46,88 --> 01:29:52,66
to manage that out into the future so
we go through an inventory you have an

1079
01:29:52,67 --> 01:29:57,68
inventory of the reserves that we have
when we've established them and for what

1080
01:29:57,69 --> 01:30:03,39
purposes. We have. Capital bus Reserve.

1081
01:30:04,52 --> 01:30:06,77
Capital reserve for bus
purchase I should say

1082
01:30:06,81 --> 01:30:11,78
a capital reserve. Insurance reserve
unemployment insurance reserve

1083
01:30:11,79 --> 01:30:17,30
a worker's comp tax or Shiori a
small employee benefits reserve and

1084
01:30:17,31 --> 01:30:24,04
a retirement contribution reserve
in your packet is a. Sort of is

1085
01:30:24,05 --> 01:30:28,50
a balance sheet showing the ins and outs
during the course of the last year where

1086
01:30:28,51 --> 01:30:34,85
we were what we used what we put in the
interest earned on each of them so here you

1087
01:30:34,86 --> 01:30:41,75
can see that for the restricted fund
balances. We used reserves from bus

1088
01:30:41,76 --> 01:30:47,89
purchase and for. Employees
Retirement we increased

1089
01:30:47,90 --> 01:30:53,55
a reserve to capital tonight we're we're
proposing to spend much of that we took

1090
01:30:53,56 --> 01:30:59,94
two million dollars out of our debt service
fund in order to refinance debt again

1091
01:30:59,95 --> 01:31:06,15
part of that long range plan that we're
going to be rude reaping the reward of in

1092
01:31:06,16 --> 01:31:11,31
the next couple of years. And finally
unassigned fund balances where we're at in

1093
01:31:11,32 --> 01:31:15,36
terms of assigned and unassigned fund
balances unassigned being the four percent

1094
01:31:15,66 --> 01:31:21,62
and assigned being the what we appropriate
for reduction of taxes so about two

1095
01:31:21,63 --> 01:31:27,82
million dollars per year this is what
that pilots like overall in terms of our

1096
01:31:27,83 --> 01:31:33,11
total reserve picture you can see that about
sixty five percent of our reserves are

1097
01:31:33,12 --> 01:31:38,72
for capital and the remainder of the
reserves are for their stated purposes.

1098
01:31:41,02 --> 01:31:43,04
And finally I'll close with just

1099
01:31:43,05 --> 01:31:48,41
a series of recommendations where we're
at in terms of reserves our unemployment

1100
01:31:48,42 --> 01:31:52,91
Reserve is very small it's really only
adequate for about thirteen people for one

1101
01:31:52,92 --> 01:31:59,76
year so rather than use it on an annual
basis we maintain it against. Spike so in

1102
01:31:59,77 --> 01:32:05,64
years when we have more people on an
unemployment than less we can use it to buffer

1103
01:32:05,64 --> 01:32:12,62
. Those changes employee benefit accrued
liability this is really not available for

1104
01:32:12,63 --> 01:32:19,41
use on an ongoing basis it's
maintained for one of our units that

1105
01:32:19,42 --> 01:32:19,86
has

1106
01:32:20,18 --> 01:32:27,08
a benefit in retirement so. Six
days convert if in this group and

1107
01:32:27,09 --> 01:32:31,56
become available so we adjusted it's about
seventy thousand dollars in total we

1108
01:32:31,57 --> 01:32:36,99
adjust it at year end tax or Shiori is going
to be important this year this is for

1109
01:32:36,99 --> 01:32:39,35
. This is for

1110
01:32:39,90 --> 01:32:44,36
a reserve for claims made against the
school district for commercial properties

1111
01:32:44,37 --> 01:32:45,44
that claim to be over

1112
01:32:45,45 --> 01:32:52,22
a sassed. We've been. We try
to maintain that. About fifty

1113
01:32:52,23 --> 01:32:57,89
percent to seventy five percent of the
outstanding claims we've paid off over the

1114
01:32:57,90 --> 01:33:01,76
course of the last year several successful
claims that as they've gone through the

1115
01:33:01,77 --> 01:33:05,58
court process and we haven't
added any anything to it in

1116
01:33:05,59 --> 01:33:09,73
a number of years so we should look at the
funding level of that as we move forward

1117
01:33:09,74 --> 01:33:15,64
we're currently at about forty four percent
of the outstanding cases so as we move

1118
01:33:15,65 --> 01:33:21,28
forward into the next funding cycle we
should think about whether that balance is

1119
01:33:21,29 --> 01:33:26,74
adequate. Workers Compensation.
We'd appropriated

1120
01:33:26,75 --> 01:33:33,72
a half million dollars out of that
reserve into this year. In revenue

1121
01:33:33,73 --> 01:33:39,74
into this year so we should this recommends
that we consider that as we move

1122
01:33:39,75 --> 01:33:44,48
through this budget cycle and either
reappropriated into next year or if it's not

1123
01:33:44,49 --> 01:33:51,44
necessary. Or potentially use
it. Transfer that funds into

1124
01:33:51,48 --> 01:33:54,55
those funds if they are
finally available into

1125
01:33:55,05 --> 01:34:00,16
a capital reserve to begin refunding
capital reserves. After tonight we will be

1126
01:34:00,17 --> 01:34:04,87
down to approximately eight hundred thousand
dollars in capital reserve and we'll

1127
01:34:04,88 --> 01:34:10,53
need to begin the process over the next
many years accumulating funds for our next

1128
01:34:10,54 --> 01:34:17,25
project which will come faster than we
think I can't believe that. That weren't

1129
01:34:17,26 --> 01:34:22,67
we've come this far bust purchase reserve
we talk about this every year we buy all

1130
01:34:22,68 --> 01:34:28,26
of our buses every year. Through a
combination of money from reserve and

1131
01:34:28,27 --> 01:34:34,14
a combination of money budgeted into the
budget. That allows us to avoid spikes in

1132
01:34:34,15 --> 01:34:40,01
the budget when in years when we have
relatively more buses to be purchased. We can

1133
01:34:40,02 --> 01:34:46,80
use the reserve to offer that
impact. Retirement contribution

1134
01:34:46,81 --> 01:34:53,13
reserve again this is maintained for
spikes in the retirement in the employees

1135
01:34:53,14 --> 01:34:57,34
retirement contribution and we've used
two hundred fifty thousand in sixteen

1136
01:34:57,35 --> 01:35:03,51
seventeen one hundred thousand was brought
into this year we should continue as

1137
01:35:03,52 --> 01:35:05,60
this year's budget cycle
moves on we'll make

1138
01:35:05,61 --> 01:35:10,34
a determination as to the appropriate
level and we'll review those balances

1139
01:35:10,35 --> 01:35:15,25
a year end as to what makes sense and
family debt service fund this is down about

1140
01:35:15,26 --> 01:35:20,67
where it needs to be we'll want to maintain
some of that as we move through the

1141
01:35:20,68 --> 01:35:27,47
course of this next project but. We started
at six million we took two million

1142
01:35:27,48 --> 01:35:33,50
dollars out for the refinancing we will
use two million dollars for financing

1143
01:35:33,51 --> 01:35:38,29
against the debt that we will be issuing
for this project which will leave about

1144
01:35:38,30 --> 01:35:43,83
two million dollars in the reserves so
that's been spent down fairly steeply over

1145
01:35:43,84 --> 01:35:49,77
the course of the last few years it builds
up source of funds for that is actually

1146
01:35:49,78 --> 01:35:54,02
interest to earnings on.
Moneys held as you go through

1147
01:35:54,03 --> 01:35:59,51
a project so it'll start to creep back up
as we as we go through the next project

1148
01:36:00,51 --> 01:36:06,88
insurance reserve we reduced. By. What

1149
01:36:06,89 --> 01:36:11,32
a million five last year there's approximately
five hundred thousand dollars left

1150
01:36:11,33 --> 01:36:16,04
in it now which is the balance that our
insurance agent suggests we maintain so

1151
01:36:16,64 --> 01:36:19,55
we'll maintain that take a
look at the balance and take

1152
01:36:19,56 --> 01:36:24,30
a look at outstanding claims at year
end to make sure that we're that we're

1153
01:36:24,31 --> 01:36:30,76
adequately funded and finally capital again
total reserves and capital you saw this

1154
01:36:30,77 --> 01:36:36,03
on the pie chart seventeen eight seventeen
zero be used for the additions project

1155
01:36:36,04 --> 01:36:40,57
will be down to about eight hundred thousand
dollars and that reserve so. We'll.

1156
01:36:42,29 --> 01:36:46,41
Begin to move forward we'll need to think
about as we move forward refunding that

1157
01:36:46,42 --> 01:36:52,21
reserve and buildings and sort of beginning
that long process of building it up as

1158
01:36:52,22 --> 01:36:55,07
we move forward to be able to balance

1159
01:36:55,08 --> 01:37:01,70
a future capital project. Hopes So that was
that I know there's an awful lot there

1160
01:37:01,71 --> 01:37:07,62
but I and I went through fairly quickly
but. I wanted to be conscious of your time

1161
01:37:07,63 --> 01:37:12,18
and of the weather is there any are there
any questions Is there anything I went

1162
01:37:12,19 --> 01:37:15,97
through too quickly or that I could go
through in more detail be happy to answer.

1163
01:37:17,05 --> 01:37:21,97
Members and just this wasn't so much and
they have you know that every year looking

1164
01:37:21,98 --> 01:37:28,17
at the list every year pop ice just keeps
Yeah it's coming every year and it's

1165
01:37:28,18 --> 01:37:33,83
still on there yeah yeah it's and
although there is a it took me

1166
01:37:33,84 --> 01:37:36,12
a long time to figure
this out but there is

1167
01:37:36,13 --> 01:37:42,47
a rhythm to that so for the
for the. Those commercial

1168
01:37:42,48 --> 01:37:47,76
vendors commercial entities like Popeye's
it cost them really very little to file

1169
01:37:47,77 --> 01:37:53,92
the tax or petition and that sort of holds
their place but to go forward and to go

1170
01:37:53,93 --> 01:37:58,14
to court and to do the
work that is required to.

1171
01:38:00,24 --> 01:38:04,69
Get potentially the tax reduction they
need to pay an attorney they might need to

1172
01:38:04,70 --> 01:38:06,99
get an appraisal a commercial
appraisal and there's

1173
01:38:07,00 --> 01:38:12,67
a cost to that so what they tend to do is
file file file file and then when they

1174
01:38:12,68 --> 01:38:18,28
get enough in the pile five years worth
seems to be fairly typical then when you

1175
01:38:18,29 --> 01:38:22,02
spend for the appraisal and then
when you go to court you're getting

1176
01:38:22,03 --> 01:38:25,57
a bigger bang for your buck if you go to
court and have to do an appraisal for one

1177
01:38:25,58 --> 01:38:29,83
year worth of tax reduction it's not
nearly as cool as if you can go and get

1178
01:38:29,84 --> 01:38:36,15
a. You know and get five years worth of
tax reduction for the same money so I

1179
01:38:36,16 --> 01:38:37,76
expect there's

1180
01:38:37,77 --> 01:38:44,24
a number of cases on our on our That
spreadsheet that have four or five years that

1181
01:38:44,25 --> 01:38:49,05
controversy right now so I'd expect to see
I think in the next year or so they'll

1182
01:38:49,06 --> 01:38:54,02
start to go forward and the other one which
I'm sure you might not know the answer

1183
01:38:54,03 --> 01:39:00,28
but the pen what apartments. Just said.
I don't remember in this year they had

1184
01:39:00,29 --> 01:39:06,99
a couple of years outstanding and two of
those years. We just refunded for there

1185
01:39:06,100 --> 01:39:10,96
was a settlement but they'd already
filed for last year and that's still

1186
01:39:10,97 --> 01:39:15,54
a controversy so I'd expect and you know
if things go the way they do these are do

1187
01:39:15,55 --> 01:39:20,35
I typically get these in August right after
the Right after the rolls filed their

1188
01:39:20,45 --> 01:39:25,66
rolls finalized. So I'd expect to
see him do it again and build up

1189
01:39:25,67 --> 01:39:29,96
a couple years and then go back just seems
like their assessment their claim is

1190
01:39:29,97 --> 01:39:35,72
like three million dollars less than.
What the tell me is that is I wonder if

1191
01:39:35,73 --> 01:39:42,07
something happened there or they were just
sometimes. Sort of depends on some of

1192
01:39:42,08 --> 01:39:46,36
the attorneys are very aggressive about
what they can I think there is no harm and

1193
01:39:46,37 --> 01:39:49,12
I ask you to mean so you'll see

1194
01:39:49,13 --> 01:39:53,22
a ten million dollar property and that
court paperwork will be and we think it's

1195
01:39:53,23 --> 01:39:58,41
assessed it should be assessed at five
hundred thousand dollars it's clearly not

1196
01:39:58,47 --> 01:40:00,83
reasonable but it drives

1197
01:40:00,84 --> 01:40:07,83
a stake in the ground I think from from
the conversation OK thanks. Mark and it

1198
01:40:07,84 --> 01:40:09,01
would send and I and then

1199
01:40:09,02 --> 01:40:13,92
a mark would say this. The important
thing that people understand is this is

1200
01:40:13,93 --> 01:40:20,47
between the property owner in the town by
standards exactly exactly we depending on

1201
01:40:20,48 --> 01:40:26,82
the size of the claim and the and the nature
of it we can intervene that is we file

1202
01:40:26,83 --> 01:40:27,55
paperwork with

1203
01:40:27,56 --> 01:40:33,59
a court saying we're an interested party
in this and we want to be able to. And we

1204
01:40:33,60 --> 01:40:39,49
want to be notified and we want to be
part of any saddle meant. But but.

1205
01:40:40,90 --> 01:40:44,14
But that doesn't Nessus that
doesn't that gives us that holds

1206
01:40:44,15 --> 01:40:49,14
a seat at the table for us if you will
really those negotiations are between the

1207
01:40:49,15 --> 01:40:54,67
town the town assassin or and the entity
and where you're sort of take that back

1208
01:40:54,68 --> 01:41:00,91
seat it allows us to make sure we. No
what's going on but if we disagree with the

1209
01:41:00,92 --> 01:41:05,50
settlement we can't stop but what we can
do then is take our own attorney we can

1210
01:41:05,51 --> 01:41:09,83
intervene go back to we've never done that
I mean that's not our expertise that's

1211
01:41:09,84 --> 01:41:15,67
not. You know we do what we need to do to
make sure that we're as involved as we

1212
01:41:15,68 --> 01:41:22,50
can be but it's not our our fight
really we don't have that. It's not our

1213
01:41:22,51 --> 01:41:27,07
role. And the other questions or comments.

1214
01:41:29,40 --> 01:41:30,02
That was quite

1215
01:41:30,03 --> 01:41:36,16
a bit. You know we always appreciate
all the work that you do. You do

1216
01:41:36,17 --> 01:41:39,95
a lot you do it well
and you know it's just

1217
01:41:39,96 --> 01:41:44,65
a good time of year to say thanks good. We
appreciate what you do and we appreciate

1218
01:41:44,66 --> 01:41:47,16
the information you share to thank you.

1219

reports. Right.
