Page 6 of 6 MINUTES OF THE SPECIAL MEETING/WORK SESSION FOR THE PURPOSE OF A BOARD/SUPERINTENDENT/CABINET RETREAT

Board Room at the Education Center Monday, October 13, 2014 4:30 p.m. – 8:30 p.m.

BOARD MEMBERS/SUPERINTENDENT PRESENT: Janie Gebhardt, Chair Jim Facer, Assistant Treasurer Jackie Cranor, Vice Chair Paul Vitale, Member Dave Mattson, Clerk Mary M. Vagner, Superintendent

OTHERS PRESENT: Susan Scherz; Lori Craney; Jan Harwood; Dave Miner; Bart Reed; Carl Smart; Doug Howell; Shelley Allen; Renae Johnson

Welcome and Statement of Purpose Ms. Gebhardt called the meeting to order at 4:47 p.m. She welcomed everyone and said the purpose of the meeting was for the Board to hold its annual retreat, review the Vision, Mission and Learner Goals, Operating Principles and to conduct its self-evaluation. She introduced Ms. Susan Scherz from the ISBA and turned the meeting over to her. Ms. Scherz said she was a retired Superintendent from Arizona and got involved with at risk children after her retirement. She said she moved to Pocatello in 2006 and taught at Idaho State University. She said she currently had six jobs including training for ISBA, teaching at Northwest University and was an entrepreneur.

Warm Up Activity Ms. Scherz passed out postcards to everyone. She asked everyone to pick one postcard that stood out to them. She asked each person to describe an issue that the District was facing, to say something about the team and to talk about who they were and what the group should accomplish that evening. Ms. Cranor read her postcard that said “As the eagle soars and spread its wings”. She said her card made her think of the Common Core. She said the District’s administration took on the Common Core right from the start in planning and preparing and had been able to support other Districts in coping with the challenges that came with the Common Core. She said the administration had the foresight to install technology labs and the wireless infrastructure needed to implement the Common Core and SBAC testing. She said the administration really soared in taking on those challenges. Mr. Reed read his card that said “Dirt cannot be swept into one’s house from the street”. He said Districts had to deal with that on occasion from Boise, but did the best they could to sweep the dirt back out. Dr. Howell said he chose a postcard about fishing because it reminded him of fishing trips in the summer with his family which was what made this job all worth it. Ms. Allen read her card that said “It’s a good life”. She said that was why we were here, to help children have the knowledge to be able to build their own good life. Mr. Vitale said his postcard was the original SUV. He said it reminded him that we manage the old and recognize the good it did and to use that information to plug into new things and ideas. Ms. Harwood said her card was about change. She said to her it was about a landscape of learning and abandoning old practices and looking to the future. Mr. Facer said his postcard had a picture of a Native American family on it. He said it reminded him that each tribal member had a job to do and knew what his/her place was as part of a team. He said he was grateful that he was able to be part of a team that knew what job they had to do and worked so well together. Ms. Vagner read her postcard that said “You scratch my back and I’ll scratch yours”. She said it could take on the meaning of the “good ole’ boys” taking care of their own, but it could also be reflective of a strong team doing the right things to help each other. She said she thought of this team that was sometimes upright, sometimes leaning and sometimes upside down based on what was handed to them, but this team supported each other and kept their eyes on where the District was headed and always made sure it was going in the right direction. Ms. Scherz asked the Board what stood out to them the most during their time on the Board. Ms. Gebhardt said what stood out the most for her was the strong team, working together to support the Vision and Mission of the District and it was worth the effort. Mr. Mattson said adversity was playing a role in the work of the District. He said the District could come out better and stronger through adversity. Ms. Scherz said adversity was an opportunity for growth. She said overall what she heard from the group was that the District had a strong team, was looking towards the future, had empathy for

Page 1 of 5 others and was using adversity as an opportunity for growth. Ms. Vagner said Cabinet had three new members and the transition had been seamless.

District Vision, Mission, Beliefs, Learner Goals Drives the Work of the Board Ms. Scherz asked the Board members what they wanted to accomplish that night. Ms. Gebhardt said the retreat was good opportunity for the Board to review the direction of the District and reaffirm what they were doing. Ms. Vagner said it helped the Board and administration refocus and connect to their values. Ms. Cranor said one of the areas to focus on this year was on passing the Supplemental Levy. She said the Board had a responsibility to understand the needs of the District and the community. Ms. Vagner said the stress of workload and lack of compensation and recognition was at a critical point in Idaho. Ms. Harwood said the message was pretty clear during the public comment portion of the tiered licensure presentation put on by the state. She said teachers communicated that they did not feel valued. She said it was heartbreaking. Mr. Reed said one of the best ways to build morale in spite of not being able to increase pay was to celebrate all of the accomplishments of staff, especially with student achievement because it showed what teachers were able to do.

Ms. Scherz asked the group to create teams by matching the pictures that were given to them and to review the actualization of the beliefs that were selected for 2013-14. She asked if there were any suggested changes or additions. Ms. Johnson suggested adding a bullet about the recognitions that took place at the Board’s monthly meeting. Ms. Gebhardt suggested adding a bullet about the Board’s school visits. She said it was positive for the Board to see what was going on in schools and was positive for staff and students to see the Board out in the schools. She said all of the writing samples hanging in the hallways in the school actualized the Belief that children should be challenged to think critically. She said the level of improvement in writing from one trimester to another was astounding. Mr. Reed said one of the challenges for the District was involving the public in all of the positive things that were happening. He said attendance at Board meetings was limited. He suggested having a group from the public go on a Board school visit. Ms. Cranor said the Board usually did not hear from the public unless it was making a decision that impacted them personally. Ms. Gebhardt said Edahow Elementary had a program that involved fathers in the school day and was structured and did not detract from the school day. Ms. Vagner said parents were involved with the schools through extra-curricular activities and fundraising. Ms. Cranor said one day she would like to get a reader board for the Education Center. Ms. Allen said her goal last year was to showcase the good things that teachers were doing and this year she was focusing on students. She said the Education Foundation started a program to recognize students for character called a CAKE award. She said students would be nominated by their teachers and the committee would select one student per month. She said the Foundation would donate money for books for the student’s school. She said the media would be invited for the presentation of the award. Ms. Scherz asked what else public involvement could look like. Ms. Allen said one good way to involve the public was to let them know what the challenges were and what good things were happening in the schools. She said it was important for the public to understand the support the District needed and to know how they could help. Mr. Reed said each administrator was involved in some kind of community engagement which allowed them to communicate with people throughout the community. Dr. Howell said the community was also involved through business partnerships. Ms. Scherz suggested having talking points for staff so that as they talked to friends and neighbors the District’s message could be communicated that way. Mr. Reed said the District’s new website was a major untapped resource. He said the District could use the website to get its message out. He said there could be a page that was dedicated to celebrating staff and student successes and to communication challenges. Ms. Vagner said all of the District’s press releases were posted to the website. Mr. Reed said it would be good for the website to have some more take-aways. Ms. Vagner said the group’s discussion on actualization seemed to focus on the importance of supporting the instructional program through the budget, and supporting involvement at the ground level. Ms. Scherz asked the group what Beliefs were identified for the following year. Mr. Mattson said their team discussed selecting “A safe, supporting, caring and respectful environment is critical to student learning” and “parents and the community play a crucial role in a student’s education” and “education is a means to a quality life”. Ms. Vagner suggested that the new stretch could be the passage of the levy. Ms. Cranor said their team discussed selecting having 100% highly qualified staff as the new stretch. She said the Board needed to do whatever it could to restore pay in order to attract and retain qualified candidates. She said the state kept handing down accountability standards even though Districts already had policies in place and were accountable. Ms. Gebhardt said the Board also needed to talk to the legislature about recreating pay for performance every year with a new name. Ms. Cranor said the legislature needed to stop making teachers jump through so many hoops for so little and to start paying teachers what they were worth. Ms. Vagner said she could add teacher pay and the passage of the levy to the new stretch. The Board was in agreement

Page 2 of 5 with the Beliefs selected for the 2014-15 school year. Mr. Smart said it seemed like the District was fighting the legislature on each one of these issues but without money from the legislature the District couldn’t do any of these things. Ms. Allen said the District needed to be able to show teachers that they fought their hardest and advocated for teacher pay. Ms. Gebhardt said the Board needed the flexibility to do what they were elected to do. She said the legislature needed to stop trying to do the Board’s job. Ms. Scherz said it never ceased to amaze her that most people in Idaho did not think that teachers were underpaid. Ms. Allen said it was likely because most people in the state had minimum wage jobs and a teacher’s salary looked pretty good in comparison. She said a lot of those people didn’t understand what went into that career. Ms. Gebhardt said there were a lot of people in the state that didn’t value education because they did not have one beyond high school. Ms. Harwood said it was frustrating how many people valued education for their child but not for all children. Ms. Gebhardt said the state’s leaders talked about the loss of the M&O tax not being a big deal because Districts could pass local levies. She said that might be okay if it was a level playing field across the state, but it was not. Mr. Reed said years ago Districts received its allocation from the state with very little funds earmarked for specific purposes and now almost all of the funds were earmarked. He said Districts would be in a much better position if they had flexibility. He said if you compared the accountability for Districts to any other state agency like the state police or transportation department the difference was amazing. He said Districts were micromanaged. He said anything the legislature could do to offer some flexibility for Districts would help. He said Districts were given operational funds this year which was great but more was needed. Ms. Gebhardt said it was so frustrating to her to see School Board members that wanted all of the strings attached. Ms. Vagner said the Board’s attendance was very good. Mr. Facer said he was very involved in Boy Scouts this year and the schedule was recently changed which conflicted with the Board’s regular meeting. Mr. Mattson suggested that the Board change the time of the monthly meeting to accommodate Mr. Facer. Ms. Vagner suggested that the Board could start at 4:00 p.m. She said she could revise the annual schedule and include it for Board action at the meeting next Tuesday. Ms. Scherz recessed the meeting at 6:31 p.m.

Review Board of Trustees Operating Principles Ms. Scherz reconvened the meeting at 6:42 p.m. She asked each person in the group to take turns reading one of the Operating Principles and decided if it was still working. Mr. Mattson read #1. Ms. Cranor said a lot of times people thought that the Board member elected in that Zone represented only that Zone but they didn’t understand that Board members were responsible for all children in the District and not just the children in their Zone. Ms. Cranor read #2. She said the Board worked really hard to be good stewards and were always looking for ways to save taxpayer dollars. Ms. Gebhardt read #3. She said the Board was very visible and all of their meetings were televised. Ms. Cranor said there were also two different spots of the agenda for public input. Cabinet reviewed #4 through #9. Ms. Allen said the Board’s attendance record showed the level of commitment of the Board. Cabinet reviewed #10 through #12. Ms. Cranor said the Board was very well informed. Cabinet reviewed #13 through #20. Ms. Vagner said she had worked for School Boards with individual members that had her working on pet projects which detracted from time spent on the overall goals of the District. She said she appreciated that this Board did not do that. Cabinet reviewed #21 and #22. Mr. Mattson said the District’s chain of command worked very well and was efficient. Ms. Vagner said it was important for her to follow up with the Board on the outcome of any issues. Cabinet reviewed #23 through #27. Ms. Vagner said Board members were active participants on District Committees and were only silent observers on the Boundary Committee. Cabinet reviewed #28 through #33. Ms. Scherz asked if the Operating Principles were developed from scratch. Ms. Vagner said she developed them and the Board updated them along the way. She said it really spoke to the Board’s behavior. The Board was in agreement with affirming the Operating Principles at the next Regular Meeting.

Ms. Cranor said she knew that it was not good practice to engage in discussion with the public during meetings but still wanted to be able to communicate publically that their input was heard and any issues would be looked into. Ms. Vagner said it was important to remember that an administrator almost always followed up with patrons that presented issues at Board meetings. Ms. Cranor said she knew the administration followed up but wanted the Board to be able to publically acknowledge those people. She suggested the Board Chair acknowledge public comment in a positive way. Ms. Allen said many times she talked to patrons as they filled out the comment sheets and explained that the Board would not respond at the time of the meeting.

Brainstorm Challenges for 2014 – 2018 Ms. Scherz asked the groups to work through the challenges in small groups and then come together to and report the challenges. Ms. Gebhardt said their team bundled the challenges under “state accountability” and included the

Page 3 of 5 common core, ISAT 2.0, unfunded mandates, loss of local control and input into teacher evaluations. Mr. Mattson said another challenge was retaining qualified staff. Ms. Cranor said the Board did not have a lot of control over improving salaries without help from the state but they could encourage teachers to reconnect with their passion. She said it was a challenge to stay connected to your passion without getting wrapped up in the negative. Mr. Smart said maybe the Board could find a way to improve the work environment even if it could not improve salaries. Ms. Scherz said many studies had been done that showed people would stay at a job with less pay if a good working atmosphere was provided. She said a good working environment could include things like work schedule, feeling valued and collaboration. Ms. Cranor said a lot of teachers felt like the fun had been taken out of learning. She said there were hardly any art projects, music or PE taking place in elementary schools and have been replaced with testing. She said staff members did like the Employee Night during the Festival of Trees. Ms. Harwood said a lot of teachers were finding ways to have fun with the new curriculum. She said all you had to do was look at the 6th grade team at Alameda Middle School to see teachers having a great time. She said those teachers were very passionate and really enjoyed what they were doing. Ms. Craney said they were focused but were having fun with it. She said textbooks were no longer being used page by page and art could be incorporated into any classroom but had to be embedded in the lesson plan. Ms. Harwood said it was just a matter of perspective. She said some teachers felt restricted and that they couldn’t do anything anymore and others felt freed by having all of this room to do something that had never been done before. Ms. Vagner said the Instructional Camps were a great way for teachers to collaborate and share ideas and teachers enjoyed it. Mr. Mattson said staff members also enjoyed the wellness competitions and liked the points they could accumulate for participating. He said it was a good step towards creating work place satisfaction. Ms. Vagner said she received an email from Amy Bowie about the leaps and bounds of progress that was being made during the PLC meetings at Highland High School. She said it was important to focus on the positive things. Ms. Harwood said it came down to the leadership in a building. Mr. Reed said Ms. Kessler had already made a huge difference in the school culture at Hawthorne Middle School. Ms. Gebhardt said it could have been a tough year with all of the leadership changes but most of the new administrators had jumped right in and were already making positive differences in the schools.

Review Follow-Up Items from Superintendent’s Evaluations / Conduct Board Self-Evaluation Revised Superintendent’s Evaluation Tool Ms. Vagner said the Board asked to consider another Superintendent Evaluation tool. Mr. Vitale said he was okay with the current tool but thought that the rating scale needed at least five rating points. Ms. Vagner said if two Board members could meet with her to revise the rating scale she would bring a revised evaluation tool to the Board for approval. Ms. Gebhardt and Mr. Vitale said they would meet with Ms. Vagner to revise the tool. Facilitate Informal Communication with Staff Ms. Vagner said the Board asked for some informal time with staff and she suggested starting school visits earlier so the Board could visit with staff in the teacher’s lounge before the start of the school day. Mr. Mattson asked if it would be harder on staff. Ms. Craney said she didn’t think so and would give staff the opportunity to have casual conversation with Board members. Ms. Cranor asked if Board members could stop into classrooms. Ms. Harwood said they could but it did not open the line of communications because teachers had to keep teaching. Ms. Vagner said the principals were using Board school visits to evidence the things happening in the schools. Ms. Gebhardt said a lot of times teachers were disappointed if they didn’t get to showcase their classroom. Ms. Craney said principals were okay with Board members coming and observing classrooms. Ms. Vagner said the only unstructured time that teachers had was before the bell rung which was the only time they could have casual conversations with the Board. The Board agreed to try early school visits. Ms. Vagner said she could also schedule visits to the operational side of the District. Mr. Mattson and Ms. Cranor thought that was a great idea. Board Self-Evaluation: Ms. Scherz read through the Board Self-Evaluation form and asked them to comment on any areas that were going very well or that needed work. She reviewed the first section, Community Leadership. Ms. Gebhardt said the only area that she put “sometimes” was the relationship with the PTA. Ms. Scherz reviewed the Policy Making section. Ms. Gebhardt said keeping up with what was going on at the state level was a challenge. Ms. Scherz reviewed the Planning and Setting Goals section. The Board agreed it did a good job in that area. Ms. Scherz reviewed the Finance section. Mr. Mattson said the Board did its best to attract and retain highly qualified staff with what it was given. Ms. Scherz reviewed the Personnel section. Ms. Gebhardt said the Board did the best it could with the resources it had. She said Mr. Wegner did an amazing job overseeing staff development by providing adequate funding for in-service education. Ms. Cranor said Ms. Vagner always kept the Board aware of policy changes that affected staff. Ms. Scherz reviewed the Working with the Superintendent section. The Board

Page 4 of 5 agreed it did a good job in that area. Ms. Scherz reviewed the Board Meetings section. Ms. Cranor said some of the presentations could be a little long. She asked if the Board could share the responsibility of reading the Minutes. The Board agreed to share the responsibility. Ms. Scherz reviewed the Legislative/Political section. Ms. Gebhardt said the Board did more at the local and state levels and relied on educational organizations for input at the federal level.

Discussion of the Roles and Responsibilities of the Board of Trustees and the Superintendent and Continued Growth as an Effective Leadership Team

ISBA Board Training Options for 2015-16 Ms. Scherz said she would recommend the Board utilize a training option that would be educational and not repeat any area where the Board was already efficient. She said if there was a particular topic the Board wanted to cover they could bring in a specialist. Ms. Cranor said there were some areas under the Finance training that she would like to review. Mr. Mattson said he would like more training in evaluating a superintendent. Ms. Cranor said she would like to review the bond and levy how-tos and reading financial statements. Ms. Gebhardt said she would be interested in reviewing advocacy outside of the Board Room.

Summary Agreements and any Direction; Set Follow-up Retreat Date and Time if Needed Ms. Vagner said she would follow up with Ms. Krissy LaMont at ISBA to schedule the training.

Adjourn Chair Gebhardt adjourned the Special Meeting/Work Session at 8:23 p.m.

Writing Professional Development Plan Mr. Wegner said he presented the District’s Professional Development Plan in August which included the math plan that was created during the unit development when teachers realized the level of increased rigor

Page 1 of 9 that was required for math in the new standards. He said teachers would need professional development in order to deepen content knowledge. He said the professional development plan was presented to the Fix It Committee who recommended more support for writing since writing was a major component of the ICS. He said the professional development funds also paid for writing coaches. He said Ms. Luras began working with the District writing coaches to develop the plan. Ms. Luras said it was still in draft form and was being articulated. She said the plan outline started with goals and outcomes that they wanted to provide K-12 system-wide. She said the plan outlined what coaches thought they could get through this year. She said during unit development it became apparent that every teacher and not just ELA teachers would need professional development on the writing standards. She said they decided to include social studies, science and technical subjects to create a deeper understanding of the writing progressions. She said the vertical articulation documents were used in unit development and it was important for all teachers to see what was included in the standards and the direction the District was headed. She said it was important to develop a common language. She said performance tasks were included in all subjects and would be aligned to the ICS to support writing instruction. She said as teachers became more knowledgeable the standards could be used to differentiate instruction. She said teachers were also learning how technology could be integrated into the classroom to support instruction. She said the Curriculum Committee was looking into tools that would help students learn and collaborate. She said the professional development would result in K-12 writing that was aligned to ICS. She said this year the District offered several days of writing training to deepen teachers’ knowledge of standards and met to develop common language. She said the District had a professional development day on October 3, 2014 to offer writing training for secondary teachers in all content areas with the exception of math. She said Wendy Miller spent a half day with elementary and secondary coaches who watched her model writing in a variety of grade levels. She said the District offered Instructional Camps for teachers to work on lesson planning and common assessments and provided an opportunity for teachers to collaborate. She said the Camps were optional but teachers received credit from the University and a stipend for attending. Mr. Wegner said the District worked with broadcasting students to film the professional development day that would be shared with teachers electronically in the future. Ms. Gebhardt said she heard that teachers appreciated the Instructional Camps.

District Comprehensive Assessment Strategic Plan Mr. Wegner said when the District implemented the ICS and began developing units it became apparent that the District’s End of Course Assessments were not aligned to the standards. He said the Curriculum Committee waived the assessments last year with Board approval and instead formed a Committee made up of elementary, middle and high school teachers, administrators and Instructional Directors to look at the assessment program in the District in order to create this plan. He said as the Committee began its work they involved Rick Stiggins who was an expert in assessment. He said Mr. Stiggins used a rubric called a School District Assessment System Self-Evaluation. He said the self-evaluation was based on seven actions to balance the system and meet all user needs, to refine achievement standards and to define clear and appropriate expectations. He said the goal was to ensure assessment quality, to support good decision making, to use assessment for user strategies, to report student learning, to motivate students with learning success and to provide professional development to create literacy. He said there were several components to each of those areas. He said the committee just completed its self-evaluation to analyze where the District was in the process. He said the Committee identified sources of strength and areas of need and drafted the plan from there. Ms. Luras said the plan was aligned with District initiatives, the Strategic Plan and ICS. She said the District used assessment strategies that produced achievable actions and the system supporting effective decision making. She said the Committee created assessments in all contexts, a learning system that supported student learning and common vocabulary. She said the District pulled from materials created by the Council of Chief State Officers using the definitions and changed them to meet the needs of the District. She said the Committee identified four goals: provide professional development to ensure literacy, provide assessment quality, use continuous improvement systems to ensure learners are using assessments to guide their learning, and articulate objectives to guide the way. She said it was a multi-year plan and this year the teachers were working in teams to get through the Idaho Formative Assessment Plan Project. She said Alameda Middle School, Indian Hills and Jefferson Elementary would finish four modules this year. She said more schools would start the modules later this year. She said teachers were utilizing technology for efficiency. She said the District used Datawise which was aligned to ICS. She said the SBAC Interim Assessment items would be released in the winter. She said the assessment system would be monitored to see what was working. She said the system would be tested throughout the winter and the Committee would make a decision in the spring.

Page 2 of 9 She said unit development teams worked over the summer to implement SBAC tests to make sure that performance tasks matched and that students were learning. She said teachers gathered evidence of student understanding and gave students time to reflect on where they were and time to work through their progress. She said teachers were encouraged to work through the rubrics with students so they understood how they would be assessed. Mr. Wegner said the Committee would continue to work through the plan as the District moved forward. Ms. Gebhardt asked who was on the Committee. Ms. Luras said it was a small team but the principals would be the assessment leaders at each of the schools. She said the District had an assessment expert available to them as it worked through the program. Ms. Vagner said the Board would be asked to approve the plan which would be incorporated into the District’s Strategic Plan.

K-5 Math Expressions Materials Mr. Wegner said included in the packet were the K-5 Houghton Mifflin math options. He said a Houghton Mifflin representative contacted him and said the company was offering a 20% discount on student activity books which were budgeted for and purchased annually. He said the purchase was usually around $110,000. He said during his conversation with the representative he learned that the discount did not apply to the 2009 Copyright which was the version that the District was currently using. He said the discount applied to the 2013 copyright. He said in order to try and accommodate for the District’s needs the representative prepared three options for consideration. He said the first option was for the 2009 version K-3 and the company would provide digital access at no charge which was status quo. He said the 2009 version would only be on the state’s approved curriculum list for one more year and would only become more expensive as the materials became more difficult to obtain. He said option two was to update K-3 to the 2013 copyright and maintain the 2009 copyright for grades 4-5 and the 20% discount would apply to the K-3 materials. He said that option was not ideal because of the difficulty of transition from 3rd to 4th grade. He said the third option was to fully transition to the 2013 copyright K-5. He said he recommended going with option three even though it was not currently on the state’s approved list of materials and likely would be in the following year. He said a full adoption K-5 would cost about $500,000. He said the District could upgrade to the 2013 copyright at half of that cost. He said teachers that used the 2013 sample during unit development over the summer liked the materials and said they were better aligned to the ICS. He said if the Board supported the implementation of the 2013 copyright, the curriculum department would meet with K-5 unit developers to review the materials. He said he would bring their recommendation for Board consideration at the Regular Board Meeting. Ms. Cranor said option three was the closest the District had come to an adoption in years and was half the price. She asked how the materials would be paid for. Mr. Wegner said he budgeted about $100,000 every year for consumables and would use that money for this adoption. He said the remainder would come out of the ICS funding allocated by the state. Mr. Mattson said it appeared that the first two options were a waste of money. Mr. Wegner said those options would only get the District through the rest of this year. Ms. Gebhardt said there were more advanced math options available and this was a good middle ground for the District. Ms. Cranor said it was a good starting point that wouldn’t overwhelm students and teachers. Ms. Vagner said the administration would bring a recommendation to the Board next Tuesday.

Lync Meeting Presentation and Acquisition of Webcams Mr. Wegner said at the last Instructional Technology Committee meeting Mr. Jolley brought a proposal to equip all teachers with webcams. He said included in the packet were the levels of technology integration in the District that outlined the levels of support and resources needed in each level. He said collaborative software was on the list and the District utilized Lync as its collaborative software. He said Mr. Merica and Ms. Spall were always looking for ways to deliver professional development in a more efficient manner. He said Mr. Jolley had an opportunity to acquire webcams at a really good price. He said the webcams would support the Instructional Technology Specialists in delivering professional development via the District’s collaborative software, Lync. Mr. Jolley said webcams typically cost around $40 each but if the District purchased them in bulk it would get them for $17 each. He said the District could use the state classroom technology funds to purchase the webcams. He said he had also set aside $14,000 for unforeseen wireless needs, but the technology department was through a majority of the wireless project and he did not anticipate any further expenses to complete the project. He said no General Fund or CIP money would be used. Ms. Gebhardt asked if there was any installation expense. Mr. Jolley said the webcams would be installed by technology staff and did not charge installation. He said it was a simple process that would take about five minutes per station. He said there wouldn’t be any impact to teachers’ time. Mr. Wegner said Mr. Merica and Ms. Spall would set up a brief presentation of the Lync system for the Board. He said Joanne Huber was a 6th

Page 3 of 9 grade teacher at Alameda Middle School and would be on the other side of the connection. Mr. Jolley said the connection could be changed from a phone or chat call to video. Mr. Wegner asked Ms. Huber to share an example of how Lync could be used to collaborate. Ms. Huber said at the start of the year the unit developers had a goal to create a common assessment across the middle schools. She said the team had representation from each middle school but did not know how they would have time to get the team together. She said after seeing a couple of Lync meetings conducted by Mr. Merica and Ms. Spall, the unit developers decided to try meeting through Lync. She said one teacher set up the Lync meeting and pulled up Datawise to review the common assessment with all of the middle school unit developers. She said teachers could now conduct short 15 minute meetings in the morning to go over the assessments. Ms. Merica said it was extremely efficient to be able to provide professional development training over the web using the Lync system. He said a full training could be provided to all teacher groups in a day or two compared to spread out over a month with all of the travel time from building to building. He said documents could be shared through Moodle and was accessible to everyone involved in the web based training. He said there was a lot of positive response from teachers. He said teachers could sign on from their classrooms. Ms. Spall said in the past she and Mr. Merica would go from school to school and conduct the same training over and over and now could record professional development sessions for teachers to go back and review if they missed the training. She said it was much more convenient for the trainers and for teachers. Mr. Merica said being able to archive training sessions was beneficial for teachers. He said if a teacher called with questions they could refer them to the online video for instruction. He said it was nice to be able to collaborate within departments. He said the Specialists had more time and could focus on individual areas to meet the needs of staff. Ms. Spall said it also allowed them to hold short lunch time trainings that they called “Lunch and Learn”. She said she and Mr. Merica continued to experiment with different training options and styles to see what worked best for teachers. She said it wasn’t a waste of time even if no one showed up because the training sessions were recorded and posted to Moodle. Mr. Wegner said the Specialists were available for face to face training for any teachers that preferred that delivery method. He said Ms. Naftz was also looking into ways to utilize Lync to get the PTE teachers together which was always a challenge. Mr. Mattson asked if the reason the District hadn’t implemented this before was due to money issues. Mr. Wegner said yes, money, timing and logistics. Ms. Gebhardt said it sounded like this was just the beginning. Mr. Jolley said there were literally hundreds of ways to use the software.

Advanced Opportunities/Dual Credit Report Ms. Harwood said included in the packet was enrollment information for Advanced Opportunities for the first trimester. She said the first program option was the 8 in 6 Program that required students to complete high school graduation requirements no later than their junior year. She said there were ten students enrolled at Century High School and two enrolled at Pocatello High School. She said the next Program was Dual Credit for Early Completers which was 100% paid for by the SDE and was only for seniors that had met the state’s graduation requirements. She said there were currently only five students that met the criteria and those students were taking nine dual enrollment classes. She said Fast Forward was having the greatest impact on the District right now. She said over 300 students were enrolled. She said the state would reimburse up to $200 for juniors and $400 for seniors. She said most of the students were enrolled in dual enrollment courses and in some cases, AP courses which would not show up until the third trimester. Ms. Cranor asked if the test was paid for by the state. Ms. Harwood said yes up to 75%. Ms. Vagner said as long as the student hadn’t already maxed out the reimbursement levels from the state. Ms. Harwood said the District was working on the details on a case by case basis. Ms. Cranor asked if the dual credit was in state only. Ms. Harwood said not necessarily. She said many out of state institutions would accept dual credits but would only accept a score of 4 or 5 on AP tests. She said families needed to sit down and decide which option was best for their student. She said ISU had recently been included in the National Clearing House of Post-Secondary Institutions whose credits would count at Universities across the nation. She said the next page itemized how many students were enrolled in a particular course by school. She said there were 188 students enrolled in Advanced Opportunities at Century High School, 247 at Highland High School and 133 at Pocatello High School. She said many of the students were enrolled in more than one dual credit course for a total of 568 enrollments which spoke to the future thinking of students and families in the District. She reviewed the Chamber Scholarship Payments. She said in the past students had relied on the Chamber Scholarships and now with Advanced Opportunities the scholarship money would go farther. She said since 2007 there had been approximately $70,000 in scholarships awarded to students to receive dual credits. She said the next page was ISU’s dual enrollment data. She said the history showed the actual credits earned by school. She said the next

Page 4 of 9 two charts represented students enrolled in dual enrollment courses and the last page was the PTE enrollment comparison. She said the report showed the number of credits available versus the number of students enrolled. She said it also showed the potential credits it showed the number of credits available and the number enrolled. She said it showed the potential credits available which were shown as potential because courses were not articulated until the student actually went to college. She said it was very impressive to see the amount of money that students were able to save by taking PTE dual credits compared to taking the course on their own. She said what cost $55,000 for PTE dually enrolled students would have cost over $1 million on their own. Ms. Vagner said all of the classes were taken in District schools and was a credit to the teachers that had accepted the commitment to being adjunct professors and had to meet the University’s rigorous requirements. She said it spoke to the teachers’ knowledge and quality. Ms. Cranor asked if those teachers received additional compensation. Ms. Vagner said ISU paid them $1,000 to teach those courses but any additional compensation was limited. Ms. Gebhardt said it didn’t appear that the opportunities were well known throughout the community. Ms. Vagner said Ms. Harwood, Ms. Allen and Mr. Facer would represent the District at the Chamber Scholarship Luncheon and the information would be provided to the leaders in the community. Ms. Harwood said the opportunities were still very new and were being communicated with families and students by the school’s counselors, teachers and administration. She said the District had just solidified the enrollment process and counselors were getting the information to students. She said many dual credit classes were two trimesters and the numbers would roll to the second trimester. She said exams would be scheduled for the third trimester and would be an opportunity to explain to families how the exams could be paid for by the state. Ms. Cranor said she thought information should be sent to parents in advance next year so they could figure out what their options were. Ms. Vagner said the information was not received from the state in time to inform parents until enrollment was already underway. She said it took an enormous amount of time to pull the information together to figure out who qualified for which program and how much the state would reimburse. She said the District was at risk of losing money if it did not track the information accurately. She said when the Board met with the legislative delegation in December it should be brought up as another unfunded mandate. She said it was a great benefit to students and families, but it impacted the time of District staff without providing the means to complete the work. Ms. Harwood said she and District staff members were discussing the logistics with the state because some Districts were looking to the District as a resource to get their process in place.

Draft PCCS Fiscal Audit Management Letter Mr. Reed said included in the packet was the draft PCCS Fiscal Audit Management Letter. He said PCCS had a good year. He said the Charter stayed within budget and received an unqualified opinion from the Auditor by overcoming the separation of duties finding. He said the Charter was also able to refinance its loans and had demonstrated fiscal responsibility. He said the only small area of concern was regarding the outstanding fund balance in the food service program and the District offered some solutions to improve in that area. He said the Board would be asked to approve the letter at the November Regular Board Meeting next Tuesday.

PCCS to Become Its Own LEA and District to Discontinue Authorizing the Charter Effective June 30, 2015 Ms. Vagner said the administration met with representatives from PCCS and Michelle Clements Taylor from the SDE to discuss the process for PCCS to become its own LEA. She said if PCCS became its own LEA the Charter could manage its own federal funds. She said the Charter would receive a separate allocation of Title I, Special Ed and TQ funds and would not have to come through the District. She said oversight of the Charter was a drain on District resources. She said new legislation allowed Charter Schools to become their own LEAs and to look for other authorizing entities. She said the Charter could find another School District, possibly a University or the State Charter Commission to become the authorizing entity. She said PCCS would still need to complete its Performance Certificate which required quite a bit of work on the part of the District and the administration was looking at a February timeline to present the Certificate to the Board. She said the state was aware that the District was working with PCCS to complete the process and that it was working with them to ensure the Charter had adequate insurance coverage. She said the administration recommended the Board support PCCS in becoming its own LEA. She said the PCCS Board had already met and unanimously supported moving in that direction. Ms. Gebhardt asked if there were any downsides for the District. Ms. Vagner said no.

Page 5 of 9 Supplemental Levy Update Mr. Reed said included in the packet were the various city and county local tax rates. He said the levels of tax increases were very telling. He said the Chubbuck tax rated remained even. He said the District had a 7.64% decrease in the levy rate because the levy was set at a certain amount for two years and did not grow. He said the City of Pocatello had an 8.5% increase in taxes and Bannock County had a 7.65% increase. He said the numbers spoke for themselves. He said the District had tried to be mindful of taxpayers when balancing its budget every year. Mr. Smart said the Supplemental Levy information was the same information that the Board had received during previous meetings. He said the District was looking at a March Election date. He said in order to meet that deadline the District needed to have everything in place before leaving for winter break. He said the information would be submitted to the County in January. He said the Budget Committee would meet the next day. He said he would bring the input from the Committee to the Board at the next Regular Board Meeting. Ms. Allen said some of the comments from the Key Communicators included that the District would be okay to maintain the levy at the current amount. She said most of them felt that raising the levy would be risky. She said others felt that if the District went for a higher amount it should go for the full amount of what it needed. She said most believed that community would not support another tax increase. She said the Committee discussed the important of clearly communicating what the funds would pay for. She said two years ago the Committee was almost completely in agreement that the District should go for any increase it needed but this year there was more hesitancy about requesting an increase. Ms. Vagner said the Board had one month to make a decision on a levy amount. She said if the Board needed more time to discuss an amount she could schedule a Special Meeting. Ms. Cranor said the feedback she was getting from people was that maintaining the current levy would be okay but an increase may not have full support from the community. She said with the levy being 13% of the District’s budget it was extremely risky to go for an increase. She said she also did not think it was a good idea for the District to become more reliant on the Supplemental Levy to support its budget. She said the District shouldn’t have to keep raising local taxes and keep allowing the state to not meet its obligation to education. She said there were also some patrons that were still upset about the District implementing the Emergency Levy. Mr. Vitale agreed he was getting the same kind of feedback. Ms. Cranor said the District was in a bad position if it maintained the levy at the current amount but was in an even worse position if it went for an increase and failed. Ms. Gebhardt said the District was able to maintain its budget at status quo last year with an $8.5 million levy but it still had $1.5 million in reserves and this year there were no reserves. Mr. Mattson asked the amount of reserves the District had to use to balance this year. Mr. Reed said $1.5 million. Mr. Mattson said it seemed like a no brainer that the District should go for a $1.5 million increase. Ms. Cranor said there were some major concerns with going for a $1.5 million dollar increase. Mr. Mattson said there was nothing left to be cut and if the District didn’t go for a $1.5 million increase then it would have to start cutting at the heart of the operation which was people and salaries. He said nobody wanted to go backwards by $1.5 million. Ms. Gebhardt said she was frustrated that the Governor and some legislators thought that Districts could just pass local levies whenever they needed to but it was not an even playing field and there was no stability to the budget. She said it was very important to communicate the instability of the budget to the legislature. She said it was harder for this District to pass a Supplemental Levy than it was for some in other communities. Ms. Cranor said it didn’t help that people in the community were hearing that the state increased the allocation for Districts. She said she would hate to take the risk of raising the levy amount and losing the whole thing. She said it would create major turmoil for the District to not know what its budget would be if it lost the levy and had to wait until May to try and pass it at a lower amount. She said it was also important for the public to see that the Board was trying to keep their needs in mind. Mr. Vitale said it was hard to say what kind of support the District would get from the community if it tried to increase the levy. Ms. Allen said it was important to look at what an increase would actually cost. She said increasing the levy by $250,000 would only cost another $1 per month for the average homeowner. Mr. Vitale said if the District was going to go for any increase at all it needed to be for more than a drop in a bucket. Mr. Mattson said there was no point in going for an increase if the District was still going to have to cut something. Mr. Reed said the District had literally pulled everything out of the budget and had nothing left. He said employees were still stuck at a 4% pay cut. He said he could talk for hours about all the cuts that had taken place over the last six years. He said the state was a decade behind on funding School Districts and the burden had fallen to local communities to pick up the pieces. He said trying to find a half million dollars in the budget was impossible at this point. He said the District had done all it could do with program reductions. He said taxpayers were paying just as much for a $6 million Levy in 2007 as they were for an $8.5 million Levy right now. He said it was due to increased property values. He said the burden hadn’t increased for taxpayers, just the levy amount. Ms. Cranor said that should

Page 6 of 9 be used as a selling point during the Levy campaign. Mr. Mattson asked if the District could give the Levy money back if the state came through and gave Districts enough money. Mr. Reed said he didn’t think so but no other agency that he was aware had to tax upfront. He said if that situation somehow occurred the Board would probably just decrease its next Supplemental Levy. Mr. Vitale asked Mr. Reed what amount was needed to balance the budget. Mr. Reed said looking at the budget objectively and not taking any other factors into consideration the District needed $1.5 to balance the budget and maintain current programs. Ms. Vagner said the $1.5 million would not cover the cost increases that the District was facing. Ms. Gebhardt said it seemed like it was the Board that was always trying to justify an increase but what School Districts really needed was for the state to step up and provide adequate funding. She said the state never had to justify to anyone what it was cutting or not replacing and people didn’t understand the position that Districts had been left in. Mr. Reed said the District was still understaffed with administrators, classified and certified staff. He said the District had been understaffed with administrative and classified employees for over a decade. Ms. Cranor said there had been a lot of hype about the $55 million the state was allocating to Districts. She said when people heard huge numbers like that they didn’t realize how far the state was behind and that $55 million didn’t begin to cover the deficit. Ms. Vagner said it was also critical for the Board to communicate that the money Districts did receive was earmarked. Mr. Reed said the Board understood how the lack of flexibility affected the District’s budget but most of the public did not understand. He said they only saw that the state was increasing the education budget by $55 million. Mr. Vitale said that thinking was widely accepted and showed how far the Board needed to communicate in order to change that thinking. Ms. Gebhardt asked the Board if it wanted to wait to hear the input of the Budget Committee before discussing a Levy amount. Mr. Smart said he anticipated the responses to be similar to that of the Key Communicators. Ms. Allen said the feedback was all over the board. She said some of the members said to go for whatever was needed to cover the budget. She said others were adamant that an increase would not pass. Ms. Cranor said some of the public were of the opinion that more money did not equate to better schools. Ms. Vagner said the administration would schedule the Budget Committee meeting and make sure the Board representative was available. She said she could schedule a Special Meeting following the Budget Committee Meeting for the Board to discuss the input of the Budget Committee relative to a Levy amount. She said the Board would need to be very direct with the legislative delegation during the upcoming meeting about the need for flexibility. She said if funds from the state were freed up it would be a world of difference for Districts in balancing budgets. Ms. Cranor asked if the earmarked funds were freed up if the District would be able to balance the budget. Ms. Vagner said yes, she believed so. She asked the Board if it wanted to hold a Special Meeting to discuss the input from the Budget Committee. The Board agreed to hold a Special Meeting at 1:30 p.m. on November 25, 2014. Ms. Cranor said the Idaho State Journal conducted an online survey asking for public input on a levy increase and the responses were very negative. Mr. Smart said he thought the District’s only hope was to appeal to legislators for flexibility. He said Districts really needed the value of units to be increased by the state. He said if the unit values were restored to 2009 levels it would give the District an additional $4 million which would meet the needs of the District. Mr. Mattson said the Board would not know whether or not that happened until April. Mr. Smart said that was correct and one way or another the District needed to plead its case. He said the only options left were to cut pay or benefits. He said a $1,200 deductible was already catastrophic for some families and impacting benefits further was not a reasonable option. He said School Districts were not getting the support they needed from the state and the only way the District could balance was with the Supplemental Levy. Ms. Vagner said the only area to look at other than salary and benefits was extra-curricular activities which were funded by the District at about $900,000 per year. She said Idaho Code only allowed the District to impact pay levels if it met certain criteria and the District might not meet all of those. She said the District was up against the wall with cutting staff any further. She said the District would not be able to operate and class size would become absolutely unmanageable if any further cuts were made. She said the state had put Districts in a box with no oxygen. Mr. Reed said the Governor’s thinking had been embraced by a lot of legislators that communities would continue to endlessly support their schools. He said it made it that much harder to get out of that box.

Unit Projections Mr. Smart said he ran a preliminary unit projections report at the end of October and the District was down about 10 units which was a shock. He said he pulled the same report last week and found that the state had just updated its special education numbers which restored the unit levels to previous projections. He said included in the packet was the state funding history that showed the index, base salary and number of units. He said he anticipated the District would be funded for 591 units and the actual units may end up at 593.6

Page 7 of 9 which was pretty close to the projections. He said there was a negative appropriation for protected units which was from other District’s losing enrollment due to reduced ADA and now all of the other Districts in the state had to protect the loss of ADA from their own enrollment. He said that meant a .77% decrease in units for the District to cover the Districts that had lost enrollment this year. He said the data was as of the first Friday in October. He said enrollment tended to be higher during October and slowly declined over the next few months. He said he took 3 of the units off of the report to cover the decrease in enrollment which left the District with 590 units which was only one less than the previous projections. He said the biggest adjustment was due to the index for teaching staff and was a result of the large amount of turnover with experienced teachers being replaced by new teachers. He said the lower revenue was offset by lower costs for starting teachers. He reviewed the FTE history. He said the District was under hired by 4.4 FTE for administrators, 15.8 FTE for certificated staff and 10.8 FTE for classified. He said the District was right where it was one year ago. He said the District would adjust the budget in January based on actual salary apportionment from the state.

Professional Negotiations Contract – Victor Four Mr. Smart said included in the packet was the new contract for Victor Four Labor Services which was Randy Bohannon who had been the professional negotiator for the District for several years. He said it was a two year contract. He said the contract was the same as previous years. Ms. Vagner said the contract would be brought to the Board for approval at the Regular Board Meeting next Tuesday.

ISBA Superintendent’s Qualifications List and Application Detail Ms. Vagner said Dr. Howell would work with the ISBA to facilitate the Superintendent Search. She said the timeline from the ISBA was included the packet. She said the list of qualifications for the Superintendent was also included in the packet. She said the Board would meet with the ISBA that week to discuss its needs. She said Dr. Howell and Ms. Allen had communicated with Ms. Swanson from the ISBA relative to developing a brochure for marketing and advertising. She said also included in the packet was a list of challenges and successes in the District for Board discussion. She said she would bring copies of the information to Boise. She said the IBSA sent three sample applications that were reviewed by herself and Dr. Howell and several modifications were made to tailor the application to the District. Ms. Gebhardt asked when the public would be able to provide any input. Ms. Vagner said that discussion would take place with the ISBA in Boise.

RECOGNITIONS/VISITORS/CORRESPONDENCE – Information a. Visitors and Correspondence b. Recognitions - Information – Ms. Allen Ms. Allen said the Education Foundation partnered with McDonalds to recognize students with CAKE Awards. She said CAKE stood for Character, Attitude, Kindness and Encouragement. She said the award supported the District’s Mission to “Foster caring relationships among students and adults through mutual trust and respect”. She invited Principal Muckerman, Cosette Wood, a 5th grade student at Edahow Elementary and her parapro, Malinda Demaree to the podium. She said Cosette was nominated by her parapro, Ms. Demaree. She said it was a special nomination because Cosette’s paraeducator noticed her kindness and how she had gone above and beyond to make the DLP students in her class feel welcome. She said Cosette spent time with them at recess and showed great patience and understanding. She helped them line up at the end of recess and ate lunch with them and showed them how to clean up after lunch and asked her peers to help her. She said when challenges occurred between her peers she tried to help resolve the issue and if she could not do it on her own she went to an adult for help. She said Cosette was a genuine friend and her peers were following her lead. Ms. Allen presented Cosette with her certificate and said cupcakes would be delivered to her classroom the next day. Ms. Demaree said Cosette was truly deserving of the CAKE Award. She said she was a very unique young lady. She said some of her friends noticed her playing with the DLP students and asked why she didn’t play with them anymore and she just invited them to play with her and her new friends. Ms. Allen invited Cathy Brey, Debra Jackson, Cynthia Longshaw and Lucia Chase to the podium. She said Ms. Jackson, Ms. Longshaw and Ms. Chase all received national awards from the National Head Start Association. She Page 1 of 12

said Ms. Jackson received the Head Start Teacher of the Year Award which was awarded to teachers who used activities and projects to enhance the learning of children. She said Ms. Longshaw received the Ron Herndon Award which celebrated parents who mobilized their community to create change. She said Ms. Chase was awarded the Parent of the Year Award for her exceptional leadership skills. She said these individuals supported the District’s Mission to “Create and sustain a culture of learning embedded with high expectations and accountability for students, staff, parents and the community”. Ms. Bray read a quote: “I am only one, but still I am one, I cannot do everything, but still I can do something and because I cannot do everything I will not refuse to do something that I can do”. She said the quote was from Hellen Keller and was a fitting example of what these individuals do. She said there were many remarkable stories about the incredible differences these women had made in their own lives and the lives of others. She said the Head Start Program was about empowering others and had a profound impact on parents, children and the community. She said it was a great honor to have someone nominated for even one of these awards, and this Head Start Program had three recipients which was remarkable and unheard of. She said she was exceptionally proud of them. Ms. Allen invited Lori Aki, Traci Swanson, Michelle Stoneback and Michelle Fox to the podium. She said they were bus drivers who safely transported children to and from school every day. She said they actualized the Belief that “A safe, supportive, caring and respectful environment is critical to student learning”. She said in an effort to create a safe environment the bus drivers attended the Annual School Bus “Roadeo” which was a competition that helped to perfect their skills. She said the rodeo enhanced skills and built confidence in drivers. She said there were ten events to complete including backing down an alley in a yellow bus, completing a right turn, parallel parking, student loading and rail road crossing safety. She said drivers could earn up to 605 points. She said this year these four bus drivers swept the competition. She congratulated the drivers and the transportation department for their commitment to excellence. Ms. Allen invited Claudia Tremelling and Steve Muse from Idaho Power to the podium. She said Idaho Power was being recognized as an Extraordinary Partner with the District. She said Idaho Power supported the District’s Vision and Mission by presenting training in classrooms, student sponsorships and awards and the energy rebate program. She said the District had received nearly $169,000 in energy rebates from Idaho Power over the last five years. Mr. Muse thanked Ms. Allen for the recognition and said Idaho Power was also here to present two students with awards for the Energy Conservation Art Contest. He said the first award was for Morgan Jacobsen who was the Regional Runner Up out of 2,000 contestants. He presented Morgan with his framed artwork and a gift certificate. He said Tyson Chavis was the Regional Winner and Champion. He presented Tyson with his framed artwork and gift certificate. Ms. Tremelling said both boys were in Karen Whittier’s graphic arts class. She said Ms. Whittier was a great teacher. Ms. Allen said Ms. Whittier was unable to attend the meeting but wished to express her pride and congratulations to her students. c.

Board Operating Principles #22 & 23: 22) The Board will follow the chain of command referring others to present their issues, problems, or proposals to the person who can properly and expeditiously address the issues; 23) Board members will refrain from communications which create conditions of bias should a problem or complaint become the subject matter of a hearing before the Board. Mr. Richard Dixon – 967 Nixon Road, Pocatello, ID 83201 Mr. Dixon said fifteen years ago he had a young man come to his home to do some work for him. He said that young man stole $200 to $300 dollars from him. He said he found piles of lottery scratch tickets in his car. He said later that young man’s family was left homeless and he ended up in prison. He said when he found out that his grandchildren were going to be involved in scratching lottery tickets at school he was taken aback and was reminded of that young man. He said he strenuously objected to having the lottery introduced to young kids in the name of fun. He said his grandson told him he knew why gambling was wrong. He said his grandson told him it was because if you lose you lose and even when you win you lose. He said 20% of the children in the state were hungry and he wondered how many were hungry because their parents had given up the ability to put food on the table because of gambling. He said it was unthinkable that there was gambling in schools in Idaho. He said he had two suggestions, one was to let students opt out of any gambling activities and the second was to see if there had ever been any study done that indicated the amount of money that had been given to schools in Idaho from the lottery. He said a news broadcast claimed that the lottery raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for schools and he considered the broadcast to be Page 2 of 12

indoctrinating students. He said he hoped somebody would listen to him. He said he was sorry for any negativity but this was not right.

Idaho Food Bank Back Pack Program Report – Ms. Craney Ms. Craney said included in the packet was the current Idaho Food Bank Back Pack Program Report.

She said the administration learned that the planning was only in the feasibility stage and the private school representatives would schedule a meeting with the District if it decided to move forward with any expansion.

Ms. Harwood said that was not the case and the school’s administration was still trying to determine if expansion was feasible. She said the representatives expressed appreciation for the quality high schools their students were able to attend after leaving Grace Lutheran. k. DAPC Committee Report – Ms. Harwood Ms. Harwood said included in the packet was a memorandum detailing the outcome of the DAPC Committee Meetings held for the 1st trimester. She said she met with Mr. Hobbs and the assistant principals to review the purpose of the DAPC which was created to help students get back on track before they got too far behind in credits. She said some students were so far behind they had to be placed at the New Horizon Center in order to get caught up. She said the administrators discussed the role that the New Horizon Center played with credit recovery. She said students that were too far behind to get caught up at their home school would be required to attend a Placement Hearing to determine the best placement for credit recovery. She said she was able to meet with the students that could still get caught up at their home schools and developed academic improvement plans. She said some students would have to attend summer school in order to get caught up and the counselors were notified to flag those students for summer school registration. l. Holt Arena Attendance History – Ms. Harwood Ms. Harwood said included in the packet was a spreadsheet detailing the attendance history at Holt Arena for high school football games. She said she was reporting the average attendance for each year. She said ticket prices were increased in 2010-11 and there had been a steady decline in attendance since then. Ms. Cranor said she figured out the difference in attendance and multiplied it by the price of an adult ticket and the District still made $300 less this year than it did at the lower ticket price in 2008. Ms. Harwood said another price impact was due to the “head count” fee that was charged by ISU being increased from $.50 to $1.00 in 2010-11. Ms. Cranor said it appeared that if the District decreased ticket costs that attendance would increase. Ms. Harwood said to make matters more difficult, ISU increased the District’s rent for the Holt Arena. She said she planned to meet with the ADs to begin analyzing the data and would report to the Board at a future meeting. Ms. Cranor said she thought the District could decrease ticket prices without losing any money. Mr. Mattson asked the administration if it was still exploring any cost saving measures like having families clean up after events. Ms. Harwood said they had looked into some of those options, but ISU would not allow any outside sources to provide janitorial services. Mr. Vitale asked if the ADs were still working on family passes. Ms. Harwood said they were, but the family passes would not apply to the Holt Arena. She said Mr. Anderson, the AD at Century High School informed her that the school’s JV game held at Century made more money than the Varsity game held at Holt Arena. She said that was the reality the high schools were facing. Mr. Vitale asked if they were considering other options. Ms. Harwood said they had discussed other options but needed to analyze the data before implementing any changes. Ms. Vagner said the data was starting to tell a story and the administration would continue to investigate other options moving forward. m. 2014 Winter Athletic Schedules Inclusive of Travel – Ms. Harwood Ms. Harwood said included in the packet were the 2014 Winter Athletic Schedules for three of the high schools and the middle schools.

He said three or four motions were presented and the first two or three were defeated with the final motion passing with a 5 to 4 vote to approve moving forward with the proposal to build a cell tower on Chubbuck Elementary School property. He said the Commission added the stipulation that the company had to provide landscaping around the site and that the site had to be set back 80 feet or more from any playground equipment. He said the cell tower was anchored 20 feet into the ground and should be secure. He said only one piece of playground equipment was affected by the stipulation and would be relocated in order to meet the requirement. He said it would not impact the accessibility of the playground equipment. He said he asked T-Mobile if it planned to move forward with the cell tower project in light of the new conditions. He said they were still interested and would submit a new proposal in the near future. Mr. Facer asked if the perimeter would be fenced. Mr. Reed said the actual cell tower would have a fence around it but the full perimeter would just have a buffer. f.

Ms. Cranor asked if the Contract had always been a two year contract. Mr. Smart said yes. e. Unit Projections Mr. Smart said included in the packet were the Unit Projections for the 2014-15 school year. He said he got a scare a few weeks ago when he ran the report and the anticipated number of units was down by ten until he found out that the state had not uploaded the data for special education which restored unit levels back to where they were supposed to be. He said the administration was working on updating the anticipated cost increases for the coming year as it started the budget planning process. f.

PCCS to Become its Own LEA and District to Discontinue Authorizing the Charter Ms. Vagner said included in the packet was a letter from PCCS accepting the District’s request for the Charter to become its own LEA. She said the Board was aware that the administration met with representatives of PCCS on October 21, 2014 to discuss the consideration of PCCS becoming its own LEA and to discuss the authorizing of the Charter by an entity other than District 25. She said the request was a result of revisions to Idaho Code relative to the oversight of Charter Schools. She said if the Charter moved in this direction it would be responsible for program compliance and management of their federal funds. She said the PCCS Board was in agreement and voted to move forward to become its own LEA by June 30, 2015 and per Statute the Pocatello/Chubbuck School District No. 25 Board of Trustees was required to approve that action. She said if the Board approved PCCS becoming its own LEA and discontinuing authorizing the Charter the District would notify PCCS and the State Charter Commission of the approval. She said PCCS would need to seek another chartering entity that could either be the State Charter Commission or another School District. She said eventually Universities may be able to authorize a Charter but that had not been approved yet. She said during the meeting with PCCS representatives, the administration communicated that the District did not have the time or the resources to continue authorizing the PCCS Charter. She said the most accessible entity for PCCS would likely be the State Charter Commission. She said early notification would give PCCS time to get everything in order and to find another authorizing entity. She said the Board would be asked to accept the designation of the PCCS as its own LEA effective June 30, 2015 and to discontinue authorizing the Charter effective June 30, 2015 and direct notification be sent to PCCS under New Business. c. Revised Board of Trustees School/Operational Department Visits Schedule 2014-15 Ms. Vagner said included in the packet was the revised Board of Trustees School/Operational Department Visits Schedule for 2014-15. She said the change was directed at the Board/Superintendent/Cabinet Retreat in order to provide some casual time for the Board to visit with staff members in the various schools and operational departments. She said the times were different based on the bell schedules of the schools and would begin in December. She said the Board would be asked to approve the schedule as revised under New Business. d. ISBA Memorandum of Understanding Ms. Vagner said included in the packet was a Memorandum of Understanding between the ISBA and the Pocatello/Chubbuck School District No. 25 for services provided relative to the Superintendent Search. She said the Board reviewed the MOU during its meeting with the IBSA last week. She said the Board would be asked to approve the MOU under New Business. e. Revised Superintendent’s Evaluation Tool Ms. Vagner said included in the packet was the revised Superintendent’s Evaluation Tool that included a broader Likert scale than the previous evaluation tool. She said the change was based on the input received at the Board Retreat. She said the Board would be asked to approve the revised Superintendent’s Evaluation Tool under New Business. Page 8 of 12 f. Board Calendar Ms. Vagner said included in the packet was the calendar of the Board’s Meeting Schedule inclusive of various Committees from November 17, 2014 through January 9, 2014. She said Student Discipline Hearings were scheduled for tomorrow night. She said a Special Meeting was scheduled at 1:30 p.m. on Tuesday, November 25, 2014 to discuss the levy and a personnel matter. She said the District Curriculum Committee meeting had been cancelled and the Instructional Technology Committee was scheduled at the same time as the Special Meeting, so the Board representatives would be excused from the Committee meeting. She said the meeting with legislators was scheduled for December 1, 2014. She said Mr. Facer was scheduled to be out of town on December 3rd. g. Any Other Superintendent’s Update Ms. Vagner said the State Board of Education took action on changes to the Tiered Licensure proposal. She said originally the plan required three forms of student achievement and now only required one. She said the Board also eliminated the need for two evaluations and would now only require one. She said a second evaluator could be requested by either the teacher or principal. She said another change was to add a one year extension option to the residency certificate in order to provide time to develop new teachers. She said teacher’s artifacts could be included when moving from one certificate to another and the artifacts would be reviewed at the state level. She said the Tiers were condensed from three tiers to two. She said the “Master” certificate was eliminated. Ms. Cranor asked if what types of artifacts could be submitted. Ms. Vagner said artifacts could include the evaluation, lesson plans, student work and extra training or professional development that had been taken by the teacher. Ms. Gebhardt said it looked like once a teacher received his/her certificate there was no change in salary for the rest of his/her career. Ms. Vagner said she had not seen any new proposal regarding the Career Ladder now that the tiered licensure had changed. Ms. Cranor said so the cost was up in the air. Ms. Vagner said it was up to the legislature. She said the rule changes would go to the legislature.

Page 1 of 1 MINUTES OF THE SPECIAL MEETING FOR THE PURPOSE OF DISCUSSING A SUPPLEMENTAL LEVY AMOUNT AND PROVIDE ANY DIRECTION

POCATELLO/CHUBBUCK SCHOOL DISTRICT NO. 25 BOARD OF TRUSTEES

Board Room at the Education Service Center Tuesday, November 25, 2014 1:30 p.m.

BOARD MEMBERS/SUPERINTENDENT PRESENT: Janie Gebhardt, Chair Jim Facer, Assistant Treasurer Jackie Cranor, Vice Chair Paul Vitale, Member Dave Mattson, Clerk Mary M. Vagner, Superintendent

OTHERS PRESENT: Carl Smart, Director of Employee Services Renae Johnson, Board Secretary

Welcome, Call to Order and Statement of Purpose Chair Gebhardt welcomed everyone and called the Special Meeting to order at 1:41 p.m. She said the purpose of the meeting was to discuss a Supplemental Levy amount and provide any direction.

Discuss a Supplemental Levy Amount and Provide any Direction Ms. Vagner said the Board requested a discussion following the Budget Committee Meeting which took place on November 20, 2014. Mr. Smart said the Budget Committee discussed the importance of keeping the Levy Campaign positive. He said the administration knew that additional funds were needed to balance the budget and the state has not been coming through with funding for Districts. He said the District’s unit value was still at the 2002 level. He said Mr. Mattson believed the Board should ask the community for what it needed but everyone he had talked to was worried about requesting an increase that was way out of the ballpark for what the community was willing to pay. He said Principal Morton suggested marketing the campaign by saying the District would reduce extra-curricular participation fees if an increased Supplemental Levy was passed. He said almost every member of the Committee agreed that a $1.5 million increase would not pass. He said the Committee agreed that the maximum that might pass was $9 million. Ms. Cranor said she thought giving back with participation fees was a good way to sell the Levy. She said it was a good way to keep the campaign positive rather than negative. Ms. Gebhardt asked where the District would make up the decreased participation fees. Mr. Smart said the Committee was suggesting that the Board increase the levy by enough to make up for the decreased participation fees. Ms. Vagner said the District had to be ready to roll out an informational campaign by the first of January and the legislature would not have met. She said school finance was not the first topic on the agenda during the legislative session. She said it may be premature for the administration to base a Levy increase on reduced participation fees without knowing what the legislature would allocate to education. She said it was dangerous to make a commitment to reduce participation fees without knowing what the budget would be. She said the administration wouldn’t know if it even had the flexibility to spend the money the way it promised until after the legislative session. She said the Board should ask the legislative delegation what would happen if the District spent earmarked money on something other than what it was designated for. Ms. Gebhardt said she believed that if something was mandated by the state then the state should have to pay for it. Ms. Gebhardt said the levy tax rate hardly changed at all for a $9 million levy. Mr. Smart said he received the tax certification from the County and property values dropped about a half percent which would slightly impact the levy rate. He said it was a statewide index and any increase in Boise or further north could affect the District’s values. He said overall the levy rate should be pretty close. Ms. Cranor said the Budget Committee said people were tired of the District always blaming the legislature when the local legislators always tried so hard to lobby for education. Mr. Smart said Mr. Hunter made the comment after recently having the Chamber Legislative Meeting. He said the three main take- aways from the Budget Committee were to be open and honest, be positive and that any increase should be minimal. He said the Committee agreed that the District should not ask for more than $9 million. Ms. Gebhardt said she read an article in the paper on the value of supporting public schools. She said the Board needed to Page 1 of 2 remind people of the value. Ms. Cranor said the Budget Committee also suggested that a selling point for the levy might be to inform the public of what the District needed to balance the budget and then let them know that the District was asking for a lower amount in order to be sensitive to tax payers. Mr. Smart said Governor Otter said that if Districts were not adequately funded by the state it could go to local taxpayers for what they needed. He said Governor Otter did not understand that the District could not ask this community for anymore. He said there was a major disconnect between what Districts were telling the state was needed and what the state was allocating. He said the taxpayers in this community were done. Ms. Gebhardt said funding was completely uneven across the state and it used to be stable and even. She said something needed to be done at the state level. Ms. Cranor said the ISBA Convention focused on supporting public schools and creating a positive image. She said the District could use a similar approach with its Levy Campaign. Mr. Vitale said running a positive campaign did not change the amount that the Board could ask for. Ms. Allen said there were some members of the Key Communicators that said the District should ask for what it needed. She said others disagreed and said an increase would fail. She said it was also important to remember that District employees could not promote the passage of the levy and could only provide information and facts. She said any parent or community group could promote the passage of the levy. Mr. Smart said another concern with increasing the Supplemental Levy anymore was the amount of the District’s budget that was reliant on the levy. He said it was dangerous to have so much of the budget reliant on unstable funds. Mr. Reed said another thing to consider was that even if the Levy was increased to $9 million the District would still have to reduce the budget by $1 million unless the Board decided to tap into Board Policy Reserves which only covered 30 days of operation. Ms. Cranor said the Board would not have to do that if the state allocated more money for Districts. Mr. Reed said that was a pipe dream. Ms. Cranor said a $10 million levy would never pass. Mr. Mattson said if the District didn’t try then it would have to start thinking about what was left to cut next year when the state didn’t give the District what it needed to balance. He said by then it would be too late to go to the voters. Ms. Vagner said the Board would have one more opportunity for discussion before it had to take action at the Regular Board Meeting in December. She said the Board would have a Levy How-Tos training provided by the ISBA at the December Work Session. She said remaining status quo was not financially acceptable, $9 million would help but would not completely meet the District’s needs and a $10 million levy ran the risk of not passing. She said this conversation was the same conversation that School Boards across the state were having. Ms. Gebhardt said some Districts had even had to dip into the Board Policy Reserves. Ms. Vagner said the tools available to the District were very limited. She said this information would be reviewed with the legislative delegation so they could see the impact that earmarked funds were having on Districts. Ms. Cranor said it only made things more difficult that the public only heard that School Districts were getting a 6.5% increase this year. She said most people did not realize how earmarked funding negatively impacted the District’s ability to operate. Ms. Vagner said people also needed to be reminded that the District was still operating with 9.5 furlough days and a 4% pay decrease. Ms. Cranor said people got sick of hearing what would happen if the levy didn’t pass. Mr. Facer said those people still needed to know what would happen. Ms. Cranor said she was okay with being factual and informative but believed that the campaign had to be positive. Ms. Vagner said Ms. Allen would organize Levy meetings throughout the community and the Board would be asked to participate.

~ Making it Happen – Whatever it Takes! ~ “Together we are Extraordinaryr and Accomplishinng Great Things!” Instructional Technology Committee Meeting October 28, 2014; 1:30 – 3:30pm Minutes

Members Present: Brett Barton, Gretchen Anderson, Lori Craney, Betsy Goeltz, Jan Harwood, Joanne Huber, Jeff Jolley, Kathy Luras, Trent Merica, Rhonda Naftz, Krysti Neil, Cheryl Spall, Dian Swanson, Matt Taylor, Chuck Wegner and Tonya Wilkes Members Excused: Janie Gebhardt, Dave Mattson, and Dave Miner Members Absent: None Guests Present: Shelley Allen and Joel Burkman

Follow Up Items Report Matt will continue to update the committee on the use of iPad Location Services at Pocatello High School.

Google Apps for Education (GAFE) Implementation Plan Kathy explained that at the previous ITC meeting there was discussion with regard to the use of Google Apps for Education (GAFE). The committee approved the use of GAFE in the District. Following the committee’s approval, an implementation plan was developeed. Kathy presented the GAFE implementation plan including the rationale, goals and outcomes. The GAFE implemmentation plan includes a list of implementation activities, person(s) responnsible, deadline for completion, and funding source. The use of GAFE has been aligned to the Idaho Core Standards and the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) standards. Kathy asked Joel to share how he was able to ensure capacity for secure deployment of GAFE and if all technical aspects have been addressed. Joel has been in contact with other Districts who use GAFE to find out the advantages and challenges they may have experienced Joel indicated that he is on track for the predetermined timeline for this project. Kathy asked Jeff to provide an update with regard to ensuring that the District’s current Accceptable Use Policy supports the use of GAFE and to determine if any revision needed to be made to the policy. Jeff has reviewed Google’s privacy policy and user agreements from other Districts. Jeff will recommend only two minor word changes to the current District policy. Kathy continued by illustrating the professional development options outlined in the GAFE Implementation PPlan. Cheryl demonstrated how the Boise School District has communicated to patrons about the use of GAFE on their website. Kathy asked for the committee’s endorsement of the Implementation Plan and a recommendation of approval to the Board. No questions or further discussion ensued.

Saw a Teacher Kathy reported on the use of technology to broadcast a live author visit from one fourth grade classroom at Gate City Elementary School to multiple schools’ fourth grade classrooms and locations. Kathy asked for and received the author’s consent to broadcast the visit to the other schools and locations within the District. Cheryl asked for feedback from the schools who participated in the broadcast.

1 Updated 12/12/2014 Cheryl candidly admitted that the system did not work perfectly but was mostly successful for the first attempt at broadcasting a video District-wide using multicast. Cheryl reported that most schools indicated that overall this was a positive experience and will likely participate again in the future. Kathy was complimentary of the Technology Department for getting this set up with a short amount of lead time. Betsy shared that her staff all had positive responses. She expressed some concern with copyright infringement in broadcasting videos in the future. Jeff recommended using better quality cameras for broadcasting in the future and asked Dian for her consent in utilizing the broadcasting cameras that are at Highland. Dian consented based on availability. Kathy received consent from the author to rebroadcast the video for schools that experienced technical difficulties during the original broadcast. The broadcast will be made available to classrooms for one week.

Cable TV in the Classroom Jeff explained that CableOne is moving to an all-digital broadcasting in January and that the current TVs in the classrooms have analog tuners. The TVs will not support the all-digital broadcast without additional equipment that would be cost-prohibitive to purchase for every classroom. Jeff indicated that he has created a solution using the same multicast technology that was used for the author presentation. The digital tuners will be installed at the District Office and then select channels can be streamed out to schools. Jeff sent a survey to District staff to find out which cable channels are being used in classrooms. Most teachers responded that they do not use cable TV in their classroom on a daily basis but a few did respond that they do use it on a daily and weekly basis in their lesson plans. Jeff demonstrated how teachers could access certain approved channels from files placed on the U: drive. Tonya asked if TVs would be needed in the classrooms any longer. Jeff has asked Bart whether the District will be maintaining or replacing existing TVs. Buildings can choose to maintain or replace TVs using building funds at the administrator’s discretion. Brett asked if teachers could continue to use the cable TV programs in the classroom if their TV contains a digital tuner. Jeff indicated that the digital TVs would still require a cable card which would need to be rented from CableOne for $5 per month.

Plan for Use of Classroom Technology Funds  Replacement Schedule – February Kathy indicated that Classroom Technology funds have been used to implement the integration of technology in the classrooms. The technology purchased with classroom technology funds does not have a replacement schedule. Jeff will create the replacement schedule and bring it to this committee for review in the coming months. Jeff indicated the only item purchased with classroom technology funds that would need to have a replacement schedule would be the laptops on the mobile carts. Jeff explained that the projectors will be used until the life of the projector expires. The Technology Department will take on the replacement of projectors. All Mitsubishi ultra short-throw projectors came with one replacement bulb. After that replacement projector bulb is used projector bulbs must be replaced using building funds. Jeff indicated that the life expectancy for laptops was five years. iPads will be out of date faster than a five year replacement schedule. Replacement iPads are expected to be purchased through similar means as the original iPads; through grants, building equipment funds, etc. The classroom audio systems will not be scheduled for replacement, but will continue to be maintained on an as needed basis. There will be a constant infusion of iPads as new technology is created. The Technology Department will set aside funds for items that need replaced on an as needed basis. Jeff indicated that this committee would decide when iPads became outdated and when another bulk purchase needed to be made. Tonya indicated that the mice that were purchased with the mobile labs needed to be replaced. Betsy agreed with Tonya that she was receiving similar feedback from her teachers. Prior to purchasing replacements for the mice, Jeff will do some research to find a better quality mouse. Jeff indicated that each mobile cart should have 32 mice, if not, let the building

2 Updated 12/12/2014 technicians know so they can put in a request to replace those that are missing or broken. Rhonda asked if the broken items were being recycled and Jeff confirmed that they were. Jeff indicated that going forward the classroom technology funds would be used to finish implementing audio systems in all classrooms. A plan will need to be developed to expend future funding. Jeff indicated that document cameras could be purchased on an as needed basis. Matt asked about scanners. Jeff indicated that the new copiers that many schools received last summer had built-in scanning capability. Trent also indicated that there is an iPad app that will PDF a picture of a document. Matt did not know he could use the copier as a scanner and would like to see more information be provided to the teachers regarding using the copiers as scanners.

Teacher Webcams Jeff proposed spending $14,000 of this year’s classroom technology funds to purchase webcams for teachers. This would allow all teachers to participate in online video sessions including but not limited to Lync video sessions. Jeff was able to find Logitech webcams, that retail for $38 each, for a discounted bulk-rate of $17 per device. This price break would allow for purchasing the necessary webcams for all teachers who do not currently have one. The cameras are high-definition video quality. Jeff suggested that the webcams be used for collaboration and professional development. Brett asked if the document cameras could be used as webcams. Jeff hesitated to use document cameras as webcams indicating that it was possible, but that was not the intended use of the document camera, and would likely over-complicate their use. Jeff indicated that the other option was to purchase microphones for use during Lync sessions, but then the classrooms would not have camera components, and the cost difference between a suitable microphone and the webcams was very small. Joanne indicated she has effectively used the webcams and Lync video sessions to have a brief collaboration meeting with colleagues across the District. She indicated it was a very quick way to have a meeting without having to get all of the participants to travel to one central location. Jeff agreed that this was a cost effective way for District-wide collaboration. The technology department will install the webcams in every classroom. Jan suggested having the building instructional coaches deliver a sample webinar shortly after the installation to show teachers the ease of use with Lync video sessions. Dian made a motion to purchase 825 Logitech webcams at $17 per device for all certified staff who do not already have a webcam. Jan seconded. The motion passed unanimously.

IETA 2015 Conference Kathy indicated that there was an upcoming IETA (Idaho Education Technology Association) 2015 conference on February 2-4, 2015 in Boise. Teachers could request to use building Teacher Quality or Title I funds to attend the conference. Trent and Cheryl indicated that the conference was focused on the teacher application of technology. Trent indicated that the conference was very inexpensive for the quality of presentations. Jeff recommended that teachers attend the first two days of the IETA conference. The sessions were designed for teachers as well as technology staff.

Kathy indicated that February 2nd is a District-wide professional development day and that national presenter and author, Tom Shimmer, will be presenting on formative assessments and effective grading practices.

Betsy provided flyers on the upcoming NCCE conference that is scheduled for March 18-20, 2015 in Portland, Oregon.

Adobe Creative Suite Jeff reported that a District-wide license was purchased for the Adobe Creative Cloud Suite which allows for the package to be pushed out to all staff and secondary student computers. Elementary 3 Updated 12/12/2014 student computers have a lighter version of the Adobe Creative Suite which are limited to Acrobat Pro, Photoshop Elements, and Premier Elements. The program deployment is underway and will be completed within the next two weeks. The full package will not be deployed to all computers because not all District computers meet the minimum requirements to run every program in the package. Photoshop and Acrobat will be installed on all computers with the ability to install the other Adobe products as needed. This will include laptops. Rhonda explained how the PTE teachers are using the Adobe applications on a daily basis. The program was going to cost nearly $900 to upgrade a single computer in the PTE classrooms. PTE teachers will benefit from the availability of these programs. Jeff indicated that the District-wide license cost $17,000 annually versus the $27,000 it would have cost to update one computer lab at one school. This is an annual subscription cost that will cover the entire District and will provide the latest available version of the software. Cheryl asked if a usage report is available for the Adobe products. Jeff indicated that a usage report is not available. He indicated it would be similar to trying to gauge Microsoft Word usage. Trent asked if the software is accessible from home. Jeff was awaiting a response on that topic. The creative cloud was a bit of a misnomer. The software is running on the computer and not in the cloud. Students do not have access to the products for home use. Jeff did not think District-wide professional development would be feasibly effective. Jeff recommended that a library be put together of YouTube or Adobe videos and offered to staff through MOODLE. For the most part, users of these programs will already know how to use the software or they will likely go out to YouTube or Adobe.com help to learn how to use the programs. Rhonda asked if this program would be a good candidate for the Technology Literacy course. Jeff indicated that ISU’s Workforce training has several courses on Adobe software products. Cheryl added the ISU’s Workforce training also provides continuing education credit. Jeff highlighted the Adobe SpeedGrade software. Matt agreed to test the SpeedGrade software and report back to the committee when that software becomes available.

Keyboarding Program Update (3-5 and 6) Trent and Cheryl provided an update on Type to Learn which is the keyboarding program used in grades 3-5. Trent and Cheryl have been doing research into other keyboarding programs. The programs they have found are web-based and will include a cost per student. Trent and Cheryl piloted four applications last year, but found sporadic results. Trent would like to create a new pilot for third grade teachers this year. Most software companies allow a 90-day free trial period. There was also a need expressed for sixth grade to have a keyboarding program. Jeff indicated that Type to Learn was only licensed for use in the elementary schools and could not be used in the middle schools without purchasing additional licenses for those locations. The middle schools have Microtype for keyboarding instruction. The challenge with Microtype is that there are only 36 lessons. If the student completes those 36 lessons in sixth grade and then chooses to take keyboarding as an elective in seventh or eighth grade they will be reviewing the same content. Rhonda expressed a concern for having keyboarding taught correctly including ergonomics, letter location, and finger placement on the keyboard. Trent and Cheryl will continue with the keyboarding pilot on a voluntary basis among third grade teachers. Kathy will add sixth grade Type to Learn and keyboarding to the Instructional Directors agenda for further discussion.

Technology Focus for Festival of Trees Shelly Allen attended the meeting to discuss the technology grants available through Festival of Trees. Shelley explained that Festival of Tree technology funds have kept the emphasis on interactive whiteboards but the Foundation was able to branch out and purchase iPads and Apple TVs, mobile labs, and classroom sets of iPads or iPad Minis. It was able to do this because it does not have to purchase projectors and audio systems because classroom technology funds have been used to integrate these items in all classrooms. Shelley asked the committee if there should be a new focus for technology

4 Updated 12/12/2014 integration this year. Betsy was happy to see that there was an effective implementation for learning and teaching with the technology devices that have been purchased. Betsy would like to see the purchase of new technology including 3-D printers. Rhonda asked for the retail price of a 3-D printer. The quoted price for the printer was approximately $1300. The 3-D scanner was approximately $700. Shelley indicated that a group of teachers could submit a grant application. The committee agreed that there is still a need for more Promethean boards especially in the secondary schools. Trent indicated that this might also be a great place for exploratory technology. The teacher would need to know that he/she was on his/her own with the exploratory technology, but funding would be available for individuals to purchase devices if an appropriate plan was submitted for the use of the technology. Shelley indicated that the Festival of Trees committee would like to purchase technology that the teachers’ have a passion for so that the device purchased is highly utilized in the classroom. Jan recommended watching for physics and STEM related requests. Jeff expressed a concern with Festival of Trees technology grants in which teachers request the lowest priced technology available on the market. . Jeff would like to emphasize quality over quantity so the technology purchased would last longer. Cheryl asked about Chromebooks and Chrome Cast. Shelley indicated that Cabinet members had asked the Festival of Trees committee to wait until the Chrome devices were approved. Jeff and Trent will test the Chromebooks and Chrome Cast and provide more information to Cabinet in the future. Jeff indicated that the answer on Chrome technology was not “no,” but rather “not yet.”

Next Meeting: Nov. 25, 2014 1:30-3:30 p.m. Training Center, Ed Center

Follow Up Items:

Jeff will create the replacement schedule for classroom technology funded devices and bring it to this committee for review in the coming months.

Jeff and Trent will test the Chromebooks and Chrome Cast and provide more information to Cabinet in the future.

Jeff recommended that a library be put together of YouTube or Adobe videos and offered to staff through MOODLE.

Kathy will add sixth grade Type to Learn on the next ITC meeting agenda.

Kathy will add sixth grade Type to Learn and keyboarding to the Instructional Directors agenda for further discussion.

Matt agreed to test the Adobe SpeedGrade software and report back to the committee when that software becomes available.

Matt did not know he could use the copier as a scanner and would like to see more information be provided to the teachers regarding using the copiers as scanners.

Trent and Cheryl will continue with the keyboarding pilot on a voluntary basis among third grade teachers.

DISTRICT ATTENDANCE AREAS AND STUDENT TRANSFER

DATES (Adopted/Revised) GUIDE WORDS

Adopted - January, 1975 Revised - January, 1976 Revised - July, 1986 Attendance Revised - November, 1990 Boundaries Revised - August, 1993 Non-Resident Revised - March, 2000 Transfer Revised - January, 2001 Capacity Revised - April, 2001 Revised - July, 2001 Revised - January, 2002 Revised - December, 2004 Revised – March, 2012 Revised – December, 2014

ATTENDANCE AREAS

The Board of Trustees of the Pocatello/Chubbuck School District No. 25 will determine the boundaries of attendance areas and provide for assignment of students to a particular school. Therefore, school boundaries and attendance areas are designated to provide for orderly management of the number of students assigned to a particular school. Recruitment of students from one school’s attendance areas to another is expressly forbidden.

A student’s attendance area is the area in which his/her domicile or residence is located. The student’s domicile or residence is the home where the student’s legal and custodial parent or guardian has his/her permanent and primary home and to which whenever that parent or guardian is absent, he or she has the intention of returning. If a student’s parents live in different attendance areas, and if by court decree the parents share physical custody of the student, the student’s domicile will be deemed to be the domicile of the parent who resides in the attendance area where the student attended school during the preceding school year. For students who have not previously attended school in the District, the parents must identify one of their homes as the student’s primary residence. The attendance area in which that home is located shall be the student’s attendance area for as long as that parent resides at that domicile and shares physical custody of the student. A student cannot have more than one domicile or primary residence and cannot reside in more than one attendance area.

Students new to the Pocatello/Chubbuck School District No. 25 shall register at the school in the attendance area in which they live. Should a student desire to transfer to a school other than that in which he/she resides, the parent/guardian/adult student shall follow the transfer process and file a formal request for transfer.

It is the intent that students, in the Pocatello/Chubbuck School District No. 25, along with their parent/guardian will weigh the academic and extra curricular options prior to making their final decision. The policy allows freedom of choice prior to students entering their ninth (9th) grade year.

A student is eligible at the school the student enters for the first time at the beginning of their ninth (9th) grade. A student who changes from one

STUDENTS 8000 POLICY 8111 Page (2)

DISTRICT ATTENDANCE AREAS AND STUDENT TRANSFER school to another school thereafter is subject to the regulation under this policy 8111.

Students wishing to transfer following their enrollment in the ninth (9th) grade, and are not making a bona fide move, will be ineligible for 365 days from the date of their enrollment. All non-resident students wishing to enroll will be ineligible for 365 days from the date of their enrollment.

In an effort to equalize enrollments at the high schools the following enrollment capacities have been established: Century High School, 13001200; Highland High School, 1500; and Pocatello High School, 1300. These capacities are subject to change by approval of the Board of Trustees.

STUDENT TRANSFER

It is recommended that a student attend the school serving the attendance area where he/she resides unless he/she has been transferred by the School District.

OPEN ENROLLMENT TRANSFER REQUEST

Pursuant to Idaho’s Open Enrollment Law (I.C 33-14-4) the School District allows the parent/guardian to request a transfer of schools when the parent/guardian determines that it is in the best interest of the student and the request follows the policy of the District. The law is designed for students entering the school of choice at the beginning of a school year if an application was submitted prior to February 1 of the preceding school year and the School District approves the request. Factors that would prohibit a school or a Ddistrict from honoring a transfer request are overcrowding at the requested school adversely impacting the School District’s enrollment guidelines for high schools, or if the student requesting transfer has been suspended or expelled.

An Eelementary Oopen Eenrollment Aapplication Form for an elementary school transfer must be submitted annually to the Director of Elementary Education, prior to February 1 for enrollment during the following school year on the form provided by the State Department of Education or on the form provided by the Pocatello/Chubbuck School District No. 25. Notice of such application must also be given to the home school. The Director of Elementary Education will notify the applicant in writing by April 1 whether the application is approved or denied. If the application is denied, the notification shall include written explanation of the denial.

When overcrowding requires that transfers be limited, students that have previously been transferred and are attending that school shall be given first priority. A student, who applies and is accepted for transfer to a school and fails to attend that school, shall be ineligible to again apply for transfer.

A Ssecondary Oopen Eenrollment Aapplication Form for a secondary school transfer must be submitted to the Director of Secondary Education prior to February 1 for enrollment during the following school year on the form provided by the State Department of Education or on the form provided by the Pocatello/Chubbuck School District No. 25. Notice of such application must also be given to the home school. The Director of Secondary Education shall notify the applicant in writing by April 1 if the application is approved or denied. When the application is denied, notification shall include written explanation of the denial. A secondary student receiving an approved

STUDENTS 8000 POLICY 8111 Page (3)

DISTRICT ATTENDANCE AREAS AND STUDENT TRANSFER transfer is not required to submit an open enrollment transfer application in subsequent years to attend the school for which the open enrollment application was approved.

A student who is under suspension or expulsion is ineligible for transfer unless it has been determined by School District personnel that the transfer is in the best interest of the student or the School District.

The parent/guardian of the student requesting a transfer to a school or program outside the regular attendance area is responsible for transportation of the student to school or to an appropriate bus stop.

MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS REQUESTING HIGH SCHOOL TRANSFER

A Secondary Open Enrollment Application Form must be submitted to the Director of Secondary Education. The transfer request shall be reviewed by the Director of Secondary Education for approval or disapproval of the transfer.

NON-RESIDENT STUDENTS

Non-resident students may make application to attend Pocatello/Chubbuck School District No. 25 schools. Application shall be made on the form provided by the State Department of Education or the Pocatello/Chubbuck School District No. 25. Forms may be secured at the Education Service Center and must be submitted annually, together with the student accumulative record. Transfer requests are to be made by February 1 proceeding the fall semester/trimester of desired attendance, to the Director of Secondary Education for secondary transfers, or the Director of Elementary Education for elementary transfers.

Applications will be reviewed by the appropriate Ddirector to determine whether or not the student may be placed in the District without creating a condition of over-crowding or if there are problems associated with expulsion or suspension. If it is determined that the student may be enrolled, the Ddirector will make an appropriate school assignment. The parent(s) or guardian(s) of the student will be notified of the decision and the placement of the student by the second Friday of April, following the February 1 deadline. If the student application is denied, the Director shall indicate the reasons in the notification.

Students requesting transfer residing within the boundaries of the Pocatello/Chubbuck School District No. 25 shall be given priority over transfer requests from students residing outside of the District’s boundaries.

Transportation to or from school will be the responsibility of the parent/guardian for any student who wishes to transfer outside their attendance boundary and for all non-resident students enrolled in the Pocatello/Chubbuck School District No. 25.

NON-OPEN ENROLLMENT TRANSFER REQUEST OR REQUESTS DURING THE SCHOOL YEAR

It is the intent of the Board of Trustees that transfer requests are made under the guidelines of the Open Enrollment Law. The Board recognizes that there may be times during the school year when a student and their parent/guardian believe it is in the best interest of the student to transfer

STUDENTS 8000 POLICY 8111 Page (4)

DISTRICT ATTENDANCE AREAS AND STUDENT TRANSFER schools. A secondary parent/guardian wishing to request a Non-Open Enrollment transfer or a request during the school year shall meet with the administration of both the sending and receiving schools for approval. If a common decision cannot be reached, the request may be referred to the Director of Secondary Education. An elementary parent/guardian requesting a Non-Open Enrollment transfer or a request during the school year shall submit the request to the Director of Elementary Education for approval. In either case the Directors may approve or disapprove the request and will notify the parent/guardian of the decision.

ATHLETIC PARTICIPATION RESTRICTION Any non-ninth grade student who transfers to or attends a high school outside his/her attendance area shall be ineligible to participate in interscholastic high school athletics for a period of 365 days beginning on the first day which said student enrolls in and attends the “out of attendance area” high school. Participation shall mean any involvement in athletics at or for that school; including but not limited to practice, traveling with a team, uniform issue, or participation in an athletic contest.

Where extreme extenuating circumstances exist, parents of Pocatello/Chubbuck School District No. 25 students in grades nine through twelve whose parent/guardian residence is within Pocatello/Chubbuck School District No. 25 boundaries, may submit a waiver of eligibility petition for the student to participate in non-varsity contests in sports the students participated in the prior year. The petition will be forwarded to the Idaho High School Activities Association for a final ruling.

RE: 5A Freshman Baseball Team Proposal from Highland High School

The following is a proposal to allow Highland High School to pilot a 5A freshman baseball team for the spring 2014 season at no new cost to the District. Rationale for this proposal is listed below:  Highland is the District’s only 5A school and its current and projected enrollment is 1500 students.  Highland competes for conference play at the 5A level and all other 5A schools field a Freshman, JV and Varsity baseball team. Team depth is a factor in competiing at the 5A level.  Scheduling baseball games is difficult for Highland as the school can’t field three games for its opponents, which means that the opposing freshman teams have to pick up single games elsewhere.  Highland has the numbers to field a Freshman team. Based on a pre‐season meeting, it is estimated that 62‐65 Freshmen and Sophomores will turn out for spring baseballl. The Freshman team could accommodate 18 students.  Highland has the necessary equipment and uniforms needed to equip a third team without additional costs.  Travel costs would not be impacted as all three teams would travel together and play at the same time.  There would be no additional loss of classroom time.  Practice field space is available at either Cotant Park or OK Ward Parkk.  The program is committed to fund raise to cover the necessary costs of a third coach and the officials’ fees for a third team.  The coaches have developed a tentative schedule to accommodate a staggered practice schedule.  Title IX is not affected by an additional boys’ team as there are not enough girls out for softball at Highland to field a third team.  Century and Pocatello High Schools do not have comparative numbers to Highland to field three teams and the 4A schools compete with JV and Varsity teams.  Board Policy 8111 prohibits school recruitment.

Should the Board of Trustees approve this pilot proposal, implementation shall be evaluated at the conclusion of the spring sports’ season and a report shall be presented to the Board forr possible connsideration for 2015‐16.

City of Pocatello, Engineering Department Ms. Deirdre Castillo, P.E. City Engineer 911 N. 7th Avenue Pocatello, ID 83201

Dear Ms. Castillo,

The Pocatello/Chubbuck School District No. 25 and the BBoard of Trustees have reviewed the two Alternatives, 12A & 14A, regarding the proposed improvements to the Alameda Road and Jefferson Avenue intersection and the project’s impact to the Tendoy Elementary School site. We understand this anticipated project may be scheduled to begin as early as the spring of 2016.

Alternate 12A is the least invasive to the school site. Thus, the Board of Trustees prefers Alternative 12A which has the least impact and greatest proposed benefit to Tendoy Elementary. Specifically, the city’s street would be altered further west of the school and in exchange for the loss of playground space, the City would provide the District with more replacement playground space than in Alternate 14A. In addition, in Alternate 12A, the District will lose parking spaces which will be made up by the City deeding to the District City property for parking space to be located across the street from Tendoy on the northeast corner of that intersection. Replacement parking is critical to the school due to the volume of staff,, parent and community traffic throughout the school day and at various after school events.

As we have stated in the past, Tendoy is one of the Distrriict’s smallest schools by way of acreage, and it is essential that the District maintain its current level of acreage for outside playgrounds and space. Alternative 12A appears to meet this need. The Diistrict recognnizes that when the City’s project commences the City will need to work with the District to relocate existing playground structures, provide new landscaping, ensure the irrigation system is reconfigured, and provide adequate fencing to ensure student safety from Jefferson Avenue traffic. In addition, this future work will need to be coordinated with the District’s school calendar.

The District requests the City of Pocatello maintain communication with the District as to project planning, design and timeline.

Thank you for the open and cooperative working relationship that exists between the City of

* The 2011 Levy Rate was actually set on a Property Value of $3,599,943,775. Bannock County made a negative adjustment of approximately $150,000,000 after levy rates were set. Because of that adjustment, the levy rates in 2011 and 2012 do not appear to correlate with the property values used to calculate them. The levy rate in 2012 is correct based on the $3,567,057,306 net property value. Local Levy Rate Comparison
