MADAM CHAIR, I MOVE, WE APPROVE THE AUGUST 5TH, 2021 COMMITTEE MEETING MINUTES AND ALSO THE AUGUST 24TH, 2021 COMMITTEE, MEANING COMMITTEE MEETING MINUTES.
ANY DISCUSSION GENTLEMEN THERE BEING NO HANDS UP.
THE TWO SETS OF MINUTES ARE APPROVED UNANIMOUSLY BY THE COMMITTEE.
NOW WE'RE ONTO SETTING THE SEPTEMBER 21ST, 2021 BOARD MEETING AGENDA.
AND I'LL LET ROBIN PUT UP THE DRAFT AGENDA OR MOLLY.
CAN YOU SCROLL UP TO THE TOP? SO WE'RE BACK OVER AT SCHOOL FOR THE CREATIVE ARTS, THE GYM AND OKAY.
WE HAVE THE EXECUTIVE SESSION AT FIVE AND THEN THE PUBLIC SESSION STARTING AT SIX, I GUESS I WOULD MAKE ONE COMMENT TO, UM, UH, DR.
CAN YOU PLEASE, UH, SEE THAT THE LIGHTS DO NOT DIM, CONTINUOUSLY AS THEY DID LAST TIME? I THINK THAT WAS BECAUSE THEY WERE ON SOME KIND OF TIMER.
UM, AND, UH, SEE IF WE CAN AVOID THAT SAME SCENARIO.
SO OUR USUAL DISCLAIMER AT THE BEGINNING AND THE PUBLIC COMMENTS AND WE'LL GO ONTO THE NEXT DAY IF WE DON'T FINISH THE AGENDA.
NEXT STEP IS THE EXECUTIVE SESSION.
SO WE, UH, LET, UH, SO THERE'S, UH, I'LL LET YOU SPEAK ON THE, ON THAT, DR.
WE HAVE, UM, LUFTON HIGH SCHOOL TECHNOLOGY AMENDMENT, UM, AND THEN THERE'S, UH, LEGAL ADVICE REGARDING PENDING LITIGATION AND LEGAL ADVICE REGARDING FISCAL AUTONOMY.
UH, ANYTHING ELSE, WENDY, UH, AND LEGAL ADVICE THAT YOU CAN THINK OF OR THAT YOU NEED TO COVER? UM, THAT W THAT WILL, UH, BE THE ITEMS THAT WE WILL BE COVERING DR.
RODRIGUEZ AND MEMBERS OF THE BOARD.
I CAN DO MY OTHER, UH, LEGAL UPDATE AT THE NEXT MEETING BECAUSE HE'S TOPICS WE'LL TAKE SOME TIME TO DISCUSS, SO WE NEED TO START OUR MEETING AT SIX O'CLOCK.
SO IT DOESN'T SEEM LIKE FIVE O'CLOCK IS, ESPECIALLY WITH THE, I ASSUME THE FISCAL AUTONOMY AND THE PENDING LEGAL LITIGATION, THOSE AREN'T THOSE GOING TO BE TOPICS THAT MAY REQUIRE,
[00:05:01]
UH, YEAH, EITHER STARTING AT FOUR 30 OR FOUR.WHAT IS YOUR, I THINK FOUR 30 WILL WORK WELL.
SO THOSE ARE THE THREE ITEMS AND, AND WENDY YOU'LL WORK ON THE WORDING.
UM, I, AND WE CAN BUZZ DOWN OUR USUAL THINGS THERE.
WE HAVE A STUDENT PERFORMANCE, IT WILL BE B FOR HIGH, THE BUFORD HIGH BAND, OR AN INDIVIDUAL B FOR HIGH BAND.
AND THEN WE'RE INTO THE FIRST PUBLIC COMMENTS.
UM, I'LL TALK ABOUT US SCHEDULING THE SUPERINTENDENTS EVALUATION BECAUSE THAT WE NEED TO DO IN OCTOBER.
AND THEN, UM, I HAVE AN UPDATE ON THE RESOLUTION THAT WE SUBMITTED TO THE SOUTH CAROLINA SCHOOL BOARDS ASSOCIATION SEVERAL MONTHS AGO.
SO THEN WE'RE ONTO THE COMMITTEE REPORTS.
UM, THOSE ARE THE THREE THAT WILL BE ME.
WE'LL HAVE MET BETWEEN THE TWO MEETINGS.
ALL RIGHT, THEN, UH, WE'RE DOWN TO THE SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT.
UNDER A STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT, UH, IT SHOULDN'T SAY A STUDENT REPORT CARD.
IT SHOULD SAY SCHOOL REPORT CARD.
UH, SO IT'S, UH, IT'S AN UPDATE ON, UH, ON THE RESULTS ON THE STUDENT REPORT CARD.
AND THEN, UM, WE WOULD DO THE TSI SCHOOLS UPDATE AT THAT TIME AS WELL.
AND SINCE WE DO THOSE, UH, QUARTERLY, WE'LL GO AHEAD AND DO THAT.
AND THEN, UM, FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY, WE HAVE THE TRADITIONAL ITEMS THAT WE HAVE WITH THE TRANSPARENCY REPORT, THE A HUNDRED K REPORT BOARD, MONTHLY BUDGET, AND THEN, UH, AN SRO UPDATE THAT IS, UM, THIS, SINCE WE'RE DOING THOSE MONTHLY AND WE'RE DOING THOSE ON THE SECOND BOARD MEETING OF THE MONTH, UH, THERE'S AN SRM DAY THERE THEN UNDER OTHER MATTERS.
UM, I WANT TO ADD, UH, COVID UPDATE AND, UH, I NEED SOME GUIDANCE ON WHERE YOU WOULD LIKE ME TO PLACE THE NEXT ITEM ON THE AGENDA, WHICH WOULD BE THE BUFORD HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION.
I COULD DO IT UNDER OTHER MATTERS OR IT, BUT IT WOULD PROBABLY REQUIRE A BOARD ACTION BECAUSE IT WAS PUT INTO THE CALENDAR.
SO WE NEED TO CHANGE THE DATE ON THE CALENDAR.
SO I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S, UH, UH, A BOARD BUSINESS ACTION OR IF THAT COULD GO THERE UNDER OTHER MATTERS, WHATEVER PLEASURE OF THE BOARD IS SINCE IT REQUIRES A BOARD DECISION.
TO ME, IT SEEMS LIKE THE MOST LOGICAL PLACE WOULD BE UNDER BOARD BUSINESS ACTIONS SINCE IT'S GOING TO CHANGE, YOU KNOW, CHANGE THE DATE, CHANGE THE CALENDAR.
UM, ONE OTHER THING I WAS GOING TO SAY, DR.
R WAS WHAT YOU HAVE, UM, UH, REPORTED OUT UNDER GOAL ONE.
I THINK YOU SHOULD, I WOULD ADD PRIORITY NPSI SCHOOLS UPDATE CAUSE ISSUES.
RODRIGUEZ, GIVE US AN UPDATE ON THE DIVERSITY COMMITTEE THAT HE'S CREATED.
I'D BE HAPPY TO, I MEAN, UM, UH, I'LL THINK IT'S THE NEXT ACTION FOR THAT COMMITTEE, UH, WOULD BE COMING UP.
SO THE UPDATE WOULD, WOULD BE KIND OF WHERE WE WERE, UH, LAST TIME, UH, AT, AT HILTON HEAD BECAUSE, BECAUSE, UM, ONE OF THE THINGS WE'RE WE'RE DOING WITH THAT WITH THOSE STUDENTS IS WE'RE BRINGING THOSE KIDS TOGETHER, UH, AND WE'RE CONNECTING WITH THOSE KIDS.
AND SO WE'RE PROBABLY GOING BACK OUT TO SCHOOLS, UH, TO DO THAT AND THAT THAT'S GOING TO BE SET UP NOW FOR OCTOBER, UH, TO ENGAGE IN THAT WORK, SO.
SO YOUR, IF I MAY PARAPHRASE YOU, DO YOU FEEL IT WOULD BE BETTER FOR THE UPDATE TO BE, UH,
[00:10:01]
IN A MONTH OR SO? CORRECT.SO WE'LL GO ON TO THE BOARD BUSINESS ACTION.
AND WE'RE GOING TO HAVE THE, UM, UH, I GUESS IT'S TODAY THAT SAY BUFORD HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION, DATE CHANGE OR SOMETHING TO THAT EFFECT.
WELL, THAT EVENTUALLY MAN, THAT WE HAVE TO CHANGE ALL OF THOSE ON THE GRADUATION, MR. CAMPBELL, IS THAT THE QUESTION? I DON'T THINK SO.
CAUSE I THINK, UH, BUFORD HIGH SCHOOL WAS THE, WAS THE ONE THAT WAS IN THE MORNING ON A FRIDAY.
I THINK IT WAS, AND IT WAS A HALF DAY, UH, I THINK THE OTHERS ARE IN THE EVENING, SO THAT'S OKAY.
UH, AND THIS BASICALLY OUR ACTION IS GOING TO BE TO MOVE IT TO A SATURDAY.
SO YEAH, THE OTHER ONES ARE IN THE EVENING, SO I THINK IT WOULD BE OKAY IF I UNDERSTOOD THE PARENTS' CONCERNS CORRECTLY.
I JUST, I, SHE SAID SOMETHING ABOUT THE HOLIDAY WEEKEND, WHICH IS, I'M ASSUMING THAT'S MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND.
UM, WELL WE CAN LEAVE IT ON HERE LIKE THIS.
UH, AND, AND, AND I'LL CHECK ON THAT IF THAT'S WHAT SHE WAS TALKING ABOUT.
UH, MAYBE THAT SATURDAY WOULDN'T WORK FOR THEM.
I UM, SO ANOTHER THING WE'RE STILL ON IS THE, UM, AS OF THIS AFTERNOON, WHEN I LOOKED SHORTLY AFTER LUNCH, THE SOUTH CAROLINA SUPREME COURT IS STILL NOT, UH, WEIGHED IN ON THE, UM, THE, UH, RICHLAND TWO, UM, LAWSUIT REGARDING THE, I GUESS YOU'D SAY THE LEGALITY OF THE PROVISOR 1.108.
AND WENDY, HAVE YOU HAD ANY UPDATE THUS FAR FROM THE SUPREME COURT? UH, NOT YET.
QUADS BOOK, BOARD MEMBERS AND DR.
I HAVE SPOKEN WITH THE GENERAL COUNSEL AT RICHLAND TOO.
AND SHE HAS TOLD ME THAT AS SOON AS SHE RECEIVES THAT ORDER, SHE'LL LET ME KNOW.
SO I'LL FIND OUT ONE FROM THE SUPREME COURT, BECAUSE I GET THEIR EMAILS WHENEVER NEW ORDERS COME OUT.
BUT AS SOON AS SHE KNOWS, SHE'S GOING TO LET ME KNOW, BECAUSE WE NEED TO SCHEDULE OUR SPECIAL CALL BOARD MEETING WITHIN 48 HOURS OF RECEIVING THE ORDER.
SHE WAS SURPRISED SHE HADN'T WRITTEN TO AND NOT RECEIVED THE ORDER YET.
SHE HAD EXPECTED IT LAST WEEK.
UM, SO WE'LL, WE'LL BE WAITING ON THAT.
AND THEN OUR SPECIAL CALLED MEETING, UM, UNDER CONSENT AGENDA.
I THINK YOU HAVE THE WRONG BOARD MEETING MINUTES A DATE BECAUSE AUGUST 17TH, I DO.
AND THE REST IS OUR USUAL, UM, ITEMS. OKAY.
SO I GUESS ROBIN WILL ASK TO GO TO THE, OH, KATHY, GO AHEAD.
I WAS JUST WONDERING IF ANY OF THE COMMITTEES, UH, WOULD BE BRINGING FORWARD O E S THAT WOULD GO UNDER THE CONSENT AGENDA.
AFTER, AFTER I FOUND OUT AFTER THE MINI, LIKE WHATEVER COMES OUT OF OPERATIONS, I'M NOT SURE WHAT CAME OUT OF FINANCE YET, BUT IF THEY HAD ALL EASE, I WOULD PUT THEM ON CONSENT.
SO THEN, UM, DAVID, THANK YOU.
UM, ARE WE JUST GOING TO IGNORE THE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM ON THAT MOTION? OR ARE WE GOING TO SAY SOMETHING ABOUT IT? UH, YOU KNOW, UH, MR. SMITH'S MOTION? UH, I JUST, I DON'T THINK WE SHOULD IGNORE IT.
I MEAN, I THINK WE'VE GOT US SAY THAT WE'RE WAITING ON RICHLAND TO WHEN WE ANTICIPATE THAT SOMETHING WE'VE GOT TO SAY SOMETHING, I THINK.
SO DO YOU THINK IT SHOULD BE WELL, AM I, MY PERSONAL OPINION IS WE SHOULD GET IT OUT, VOTE ON IT AND GET IT OUT OF THE WAY, BUT, UM,
[00:15:01]
AND THEN HAVE A POSTPONEMENT UNTIL THE RICHLAND TOO, ALTHOUGH WE'VE ALREADY SAID THAT, SO I'M NOT SURE.UM, UH, I'D LIKE TO GET RID OF THE THING.
I'M TIRED OF THE PHONE CALLS, BUT MY FRUSTRATION SHOULDN'T DICTATE LOGIC.
UH, TINA, IS THAT SOMETHING YOU COULD JUST STATE DURING THE CHAIRMAN'S REPORT THAT, UH, YOU KNOW, YOU JUST WANT TO STATE THAT WE ARE STILL WAITING THAT THE MOTION THAT WE APPROVE SAID THAT AS SOON AS WE GOT, UM, YOU KNOW, THE SUPREME COURT RULING, WE WOULD HAVE A SPECIAL CALLED MEETING AND WE ARE STILL WAITING, UH, FOR THAT TO HAPPEN ON THE RICHLAND TWO CASE.
UM, UM, THAT WOULD BE, UM, I THINK A LOT, I'M NOT SURE WHAT'S HAPPENING WHILE I'M WITH THE VOLUME SOUNDS SO FUNNY.
UM, SO IT SEEMS FROM THE EMAILS I'VE ANSWERED CITIZENS, DON'T REALIZE THAT TWO SUPREME COURT OPINIONS REGARDING MASK MANDATES ARE, YOU KNOW, WE'RE OUT THERE PENDING.
ONE HAS BEEN, UH, ALREADY, UH, UH, RELEASED AND THAT WAS RELEASED AT EARLY THIS MONTH.
AND WHEREAS THE SECOND ONE HEARD THE EXACT SAME DAY LEGAL ARGUMENTS.
IT'S STILL, HASN'T BEEN RE RELEASED.
AND MAYBE BY THE TIME WE GET TO THIS MEETING, IT WILL HAVE BEEN RELEASED AND WE WILL, UM, YOU KNOW, UH, HAVE TO HAVE OUR, OUR MEETING IN WHICH CASE, I GUESS WE STILL, WE COULD, IF IT FELL WITHIN THE REQUIREMENTS, IT COULD POTENTIALLY BE ON BUSINESS HERE SINCE WE WERE HAVING A MEETING OR MAYBE, OR WE'LL HAVE IT AS A SEPARATE MEETING.
SO, UM, KATHY, DO YOU WANT TO SAY THE WORDING UNDER CHAIRMAN'S REPORT OR DAVID UPDATE ON SUPREME COURT RULINGS? UH, REGARDING MANDATORY MASKING? YEAH, THAT'S GOOD.
AND I THINK I WOULD TWEAK IT A LITTLE AND SAY, PUT SC SUPREME COURT.
I DON'T KNOW IF THERE'S A DIFFERENCE, BUT THAT'S WHAT THEY CALL THEM.
I THINK IT'S ABOUT THE PROVISOR 1.108.
AND MAYBE PUT THAT IN INSTEAD, TAKE OUT MANDATORY MASKING AND PUT IN PROVISO 1.108 AND PERHAPS, YOU KNOW, WE WON'T NEED THIS BECAUSE THE RULING WILL HAVE COMMON.
WE WILL HAVE HAD OUR SPECIAL CALLED MEETING.
DAVID, HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THAT? I'M FINE WITH THAT.
UM, YOU KNOW, I JUST, I JUST THINK WE CAN'T IGNORE IT.
WE GOTTA HAVE A PLACEHOLDER THERE JUST IN CASE WE DON'T GET THE RULING BECAUSE THERE DOESN'T SEEM TO BE A BIG FIRE UNDER THE SUPREME COURT'S BUTTON ON THIS.
UH, I WAS JUST GOING TO SAY, YOU KNOW, WORDING ON THAT IS I THINK REALLY IMPORTANT BECAUSE IT'S GOING TO POP OUT ON AN AGENDA.
AND YOU WANT TO BE CLEAR, I THINK TO THE CONSTITUENTS THAT YOU'RE NOT CALLING FOR A VOTE ON THIS BECAUSE IT'S ON THE AGENDA, BUT RATHER, UH, WE WERE JUST TRYING TO CLARIFY, UH, WHATEVER IT IS.
I THINK THAT'S ONE OF THE, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT IS CAUSING, UH, CONTINUAL EMAILS IS I THINK SOME OF THEM ARE JUST CONCERNED SINCE, SINCE IT'S STILL HANGING OUT THERE THAT, UM, UH, THE BOARD IS TAKING A VOTE OR PLANNING ON TAKING A VOTE.
THEY'RE NOT AWARE OF IT, THAT SORT OF THING.
SO WHEN DID YOU SUGGEST IT IN THE CHAT THAT WE ACTUALLY PUT THE CASE THERE? AND I'LL BE GLAD TO PROVIDE THE CASE NAME BECAUSE THERE'S ALREADY BEEN ONE RULING AND THE ATTORNEY GENERAL WILSON CASE VERSUS THE CITY OF COLUMBIA.
SO IF WE REFERENCE RICHLAND TWO AND I CAN GIVE
[00:20:01]
ROBIN AND MOLLY THE COMPLETE CASE NAME AND KNOW ANY MISUNDERSTANDING ABOUT THE CASE.SO WENDY, CAN I ASK YOU, YOU WOULD JUST PUT THE ONE THAT'S STILL PENDING AS THE UPDATE, UNLESS YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE RULING IN THE OTHER CASE TOO, I THOUGHT YOU WERE WAITING FOR THE RULING ON THE WRITTEN TWO CASE.
THAT'S DECLARED A JUDGMENT ABOUT THE PROVIDES THOUGH, RIGHT? YEAH.
I THINK THE SIMPLER OR MORE STREAMLINED IT IS THE BETTER, RIGHT.
CAUSE THERE'S ALREADY BEEN IN THE NEWS.
THE OTHER CASES ALREADY BEEN ADDRESSED IN THE NEWS.
AND SHOULD IT BE, CAN YOU SPEAK TO THE, YEAH.
WILL YOU DO THE WORDING TO BE UPDATE ON PENDING, YOU KNOW, SC SUPREME COURT OPINION? I DON'T KNOW.
WE'LL HAVE TO FIGURE OUT THE WORDING.
I WAS GOING TO SUGGEST THE EITHER PENDING OR SECOND SUPREME COURT OPINION OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
AND I'LL GIVE THE EXACT CASE NAME THROUGHOUT, PERHAPS SOMETHING THAT INDICATES WE'RE STILL WAITING FOR THE OPINION.
BECAUSE DR IS CORRECT AT THAT.
THE WORDING IS DEFINITELY GONNA PUT IT, YOU KNOW, THE COMMUNITY'S ANTENNAS UP.
SO LET'S SEE ANYBODY ELSE HAVE ANY FURTHER COMMENTS ABOUT THE AGENDA? WE CAN GO ON TO THE, UM, THAT LIST THAT WE KEEP OF, UH, OTHER TOPICS AND SEE IF THERE'S ANYTHING THERE YOU'RE FORGETTING.
WE DIDN'T COVER THE DISCIPLINARY MATRIX AT THE WORK SESSION.
SO THAT NEEDS TO CHANGE THAT WELL.
SO THAT COULD BE AT, UH, THE UPCOMING WORK SESSION, WHICH IS, OH, THAT'S RIGHT.
WE DID SAY IN DECEMBER, NOVEMBER, IT WAS A WORK SESSION FOR A FUTURE ONE.
I SHOULD PUT, AND I JUST WANTED TO MENTION WHAT WE'RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT UPDATES TO THE STUDENT CODE OF CONDUCT AND THE OPERATIONS COMMITTEE ON WEDNESDAY.
UM, EDUCATOR HANDBOOKS BEEN UPDATED AND WE HAVE SOME NEW DEFINITIONS THAT WE'VE ADDED.
SO STUDENT CODE ROBIN, THANK YOU, WENDY.
ROBIN, CAN YOU SCROLL UP? SO THESE HEADINGS ARE ON MUTE.
UM, I THINK WE NEED TO UPDATE THESE SPECIAL CALLED READING FOR RESULTS.
MOTION FOR MR. SMITH TO SAY CLARIFICATION SIDE, NO RESPONSE.
I GOT NO RESPONSE, SO I, I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH THAT, BUT I THINK WE SHOULD NOTE IT ON YOUR AND THE NEXT ONE, THE IEP THING.
I DON'T KNOW IF ANYBODY GOT TO RACHEL OR NOT, WE HAVE TO DEAL WITH IT.
SO, UH, I BELIEVE OUR STAFF, UH, UH, HAS COMMUNICATED WITH HER ON THAT, UH, AS WAS A REQUEST THAT AN IMMEDIATE AGENDA SETTING MEETING, I DON'T KNOW, MAYBE A MONTH AGO.
I'M NOT SURE, BUT I WILL UP ON THAT JUST TO MAKE SURE THAT IT DID HAPPEN, BUT I BELIEVE IT DID SO, AND THEN I WILL FOLLOW UP TO MAKE SURE THAT RESOLVED IT AND SHE DOESN'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT ANYMORE.
SO AFTER I CHECKED, MR
YOU PUT THAT UNDER THE, WHATEVER THE STATUS IS.
I'M, I'M GOING TO FOLLOW UP WITH OUR STAFF.
I BELIEVE IT WAS TAKEN CARE OF ALREADY, BUT I'LL FOLLOW UP ON WITH OUR STAFF AND THEN I'LL GET BACK TO MR. DISTRIBUTOR AND THEN MR.
[00:25:01]
ON THE NEXT PAGE TOO.SO DO YOU WANT ME TO MOVE THIS TO THE OCTOBER, NOVEMBER WORK SESSION? WE ORIGINALLY HAD IT FOR THE LAST ONE, BUT SHE ASKED FOR IT TO COME OFF.
SHE DIDN'T HAVE ALL THE INFORMATION.
SO I WOULD SAY YES, BUT I AM ONE OF THREE DAVID AND MALE.
THEN THERE'S THE LAST UPDATE ON PROFILE AND THAT WAS MEL'S REQUEST, I BELIEVE.
AND THAT'S THE ACADEMIC COMMUNITY RIGHT NOW.
I BELIEVE THAT, UH, OUR TEAM IS GETTING READY TO BRING THAT FORWARD, I THINK, TO THE COMMITTEE.
THAT WAS THE ASSURANCE I GOT FROM DR.
STRADDLES THAT SHE HAD BEEN WORKING ON IT AND KNEW THAT WOULD BE, HAD TO DO AN UPDATE.
NOW I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE TIMETABLE IS.
UH, I KNOW THEY'VE BEEN WORKING ON IT AND I THINK THAT THE, UM, ON THE UPDATE AND I THINK THEY'RE MY UNDERSTANDING IS THEY WERE BRINGING IT TO AN ACADEMIC COMMITTEE SOON.
SO I'LL, I'LL, I'LL FOLLOW UP ON THAT TOO.
I THINK WE COVERED EVERYTHING THERE.
UM, SO CAN WE GO BACK TO OUR, DO WE HAVE ANY OTHER, UM, MEETING WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT? NOPE.
HOW LONG DO WE THINK THE SCHOOL REPORT CARD IS GOING TO TAKE? I'M TRYING TO GAUGE WHETHER I SHOULD PUT A PLACE OVER ON WEDNESDAY.
I'M JUST THINKING THAT THE SCHOOL REPORT CARD AND THE PRIORITY SCHOOL TSI SCHOOL UPDATES ARE GONNA PROBABLY BE LENGTHY.
CAUSE I THINK WE'LL GET, YOU KNOW, TYPICALLY A LOT OF QUESTIONS AROUND THAT.
SO, UH, SO I THINK IT'LL BE LIKELY TO MR. SHERMAN.
ALRIGHTY SUGGESTION OR A QUESTION.
SO SINCE THE TSI AND THE PRIORITY SCHOOLS SEEM TO BE LENGTHY, CAN WE MOVE THEM TO MAYBE THE FIRST MEETING OF THE MONTH SO THAT WE CAN HAVE THEM AT THE DISTRICT OFFICE AND NOT, UM, WHEN WE'RE AT HILTON HEAD OR NO? IS THAT FOR ME IF IT'S FOR THE OFFICERS.
SO YOU'RE SAYING, SO WHAT YOU'RE TRYING TO AVOID IS A TWO DAY MEETING ON THE SOUTH SIDE.
WELL, I'VE TALKED BRIEFLY TO DR.
R ABOUT THESE, UM, AND THE SAME INFORMATION.
SOME OF THE SAME INFORMATION IS GOING TO BE IN, UH, IN THE REPORT CARD AND THE PRIORITY SCHOOL UPDATE AND THE TSI.
SO TO ME, IT SEEMS LIKE THEY SHOULD BE GIVEN AT THE SAME TIME, BUT THAT'S MY OPINION.
AND DO YOU WANT TO WEIGH IN DR.
R OR DAVID OR MEL? YEAH, PERSONALLY, I THINK THEY SHOULD.
THEY SHOULD BE LOOPED TOGETHER FOR THE CONVERSATION.
I THINK WE'VE COVERED EVERYTHING.
SO, UH, WE CAN ADJOURN BY UNANIMOUS CONSENT.
UH, I, YEAH, I, UM, I WAS WONDERING, UH, TO, UM, UH, UM, TO THIS, TO GO ALONG WITH WHAT MRS. CHRISTENBERRY SAID.
UM, ALSO WE HAVE HA WELL, I GUESS YOU HAVE TO REPORT, UH, UH, AT ONE MEETING, I ENDED THE OTHER HALF AT THE OTHER MEETING, OR JUST HOLD OFF ON A TSS REPORTS BECAUSE I, I KINDA THINK THAT THAT, THAT THOSE REPORTS AND THOSE REPORTS I HAVE A LITTLE BIT, UH, UH, DIFFER WITH WITHIN EACH OTHER, EVEN THOUGH, EVEN THOUGH YOU BRING YOU BACK THE TEST RESULTS, I THINK, UM, THE, UH, TEST
[00:30:01]
RESULTS IS KIND OF DIFFERENT VERSUS THE TSA INFORMATION.I DON'T THINK THAT IT SHOULD BE ALL BOUGHT TOGETHER AS THIS IS MY, THIS IS MY UP AND YEAH.
SO AT ANY OF THE, THANK YOU FOR YOUR OPINION, DO ANY OF THE COMMITTEE MEMBERS WANT TO MAKE A MOTION TO SPLIT IT UP, OR I WOULD JUST ALSO COMMENT, YOU KNOW, THE, THOSE OF US SOUTH OF THE BROAD HAS COMMUTED TO NORTH OF THE BROAD FOR ALL THE MEETINGS FOR ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF.
SO, UM, I THINK THAT NEEDS TO BE RECOGNIZED AS PART OF THIS.
THAT'S IT? UM, I'M GONNA GO WITH THE CONFIDENCE THAT RODRIGUEZ BELIEVES THAT IT SHOULD BE DONE AT ONE MEETING.
SO I DON'T THINK IT WOULD BE PROPER TO SPLIT IT IF HE FEELS LIKE THE BEST, THE BEST PRESENTATION HE CAN GIVE IS 1, 1, 1 SEC.
I THINK WE LET HIM DO THE ONE SEC.
I THOUGHT WE HAD ALREADY ACTUALLY SETTLED THIS.
WELL, AND, UH, JUST TO SEE IT, YOU WERE NOT CALLED UPON BECAUSE YOU DIDN'T PUT YOUR HAND DOWN.
CAN YOU PUT IT DOWN AND THEN BACK UP, SO I KNOW THAT YOU WANT TO SPEAK AGAIN.
IF I NEVER, IF I NEVER TOOK IT DOWN THEN, I MEAN, THAT'S OBVIOUSLY I WOULD WANT TO SPEAK AGAIN.
LET'S TAKE IT DOWN THAT ROBERT'S RULES DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY.
PLEASE PUT IT DOWN AND THEN PUT IT BACK UP.
SO I KNOW THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO BE CALLED ON AGAIN, AND I'D BE HAPPY TO CALL ON YOU MR. SMITH.
UM, AND IN TERMS OF, UM, MY COMMENT WAS NOT IN SHOW OF TRAVELING OR A BACK AND FORTH.
MY COMMENT WAS AS AN, I THOUGHT THAT THE TSA THAT THERE WERE TWO OR TWO DIFFERENT POINTS, THAT ONE WAS BASED UPON GIVING AN UPDATE ON TEST SCORES.
AND I THOUGHT THAT ONE, ONE WAS GIVING ANOTHER REPORT.
AND IN OTHER WORDS, I WAS, WHAT I WAS SAYING WAS THAT I DIDN'T THINK THAT THE TWO, THE TWO REPORTS SHOULD BE TOGETHER.
WHAT WAS, HOW WAS THE WAS BASICALLY OF, UH, WAS HOW I UNDERSTOOD IT? I UNDERSTAND IT.
I WAS SAYING IT, IT WASN'T, IT WASN'T ABOUT WINNING THE LESSONS OF THE REPORTS.
IT WAS THAT I FELT THE REPORTS WERE, HAD A SEPARATE, A COUPLE OF SEPARATE MIRRORS, AND I THOUGHT THE REPORT SHOULD BE SPLIT MORE, MORE ALONG THOSE LINES.
SO IT WASN'T ABOUT, I'M NOT FINISHED.
THANKING YOU FOR WHAT YOU JUST SAID, SIR.
BUT IN ADDITION TO THAT, UM, I DO UNDERSTAND THAT WHAT, UH, SOME BOARD MEMBERS SAID THAT, THAT THEY, UH, WILL LEAVE UP TO MR. CAMPBELL.
I'M GOING TO, I'VE GOT RODRIGUEZ, BUT I JUST WANTED TO PUT THAT OUT THERE AS SOME POS, SOMEHOW I SEE INFORMATION ON HOW I UNDERSTAND HOW I PROCESS IT.
AND ME WHEN ME AND MY, MY THOUGHT PROCESS WAS THAT THOSE WERE TWO DIFFERENT THINGS, BUT THAT WHEN WE SEE, LIKE, WE WERE LIKE, WE BOUGHT THINGS UP TOGETHER, THOSE THINGS SHOULD, SHOULD BE, SHOULD BE COMBINED TOGETHER.
ALL RIGHT THERE BEING NO FURTHER HANDS UP BECAUSE MR. SMITH HAS NOT PUT IT DOWN.
AND WE'LL ADJOURN BY UNANIMOUS CONSENT.
