I DON'T THINK MEL CAMPBELL HAS JOINED US YET, DAVID.
SO DO WE HAVE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE AGENDA? WE APPROVE THE AGENDA.
IT, ANY DISCUSSION THERE BEING NO HANDS UP.
WE'LL NOW STAND FOR THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE.

NEXT UP WE HAVE THE, UM, WE HAVE TWO AGENDAS TO SET, UH, THIS EVENING.
THE FIRST IS THE, IS OUR ANNUAL JOINT, UH, BOARD AND SIC MEETING THAT IS ON DECEMBER 2ND, 2021.
AND THAT'S GOING TO BE A VIRTUAL MEETING STARTING AT SIX AND LIKE AN HOUR AND A HALF.
UM, SO ROBIN, YOUR WIFE EARLIER TODAY.
AND DID YOU HEAR BACK FROM KRISTEN ABOUT WHAT THE SIC IS WE'RE INTERESTED IN? SHE WAS STILL GATHERING.
SO SHE DID, SHE GAVE THEM UNTIL THE END OF THE DAY.
SO I HAVE NOT HEARD YET OF WHAT THEIR TOPICS.
UH, YOU WANT, UM, REACH OUT TO KRISTEN? SHE HAS ANYTHING.
SO, DAVID, UM, DO YOU HAVE ANY, UH, SUGGESTIONS? DO YOU WANT ME TO PUT THE ONE ON THERE THAT YOU HAD TINA? I HAVE A SUGGESTION I HAD WAS, UH, SINCE WE'RE GONNA LIKELY BE GETTING VOLUNTEERS BACK IN OUR SCHOOLS, UH, COME THE BEGINNING OF, UH, UH, JANUARY OR IN JANUARY.
I JUST THINK THAT THEY WOULD LET'S LET'S SEEK THEIR INPUT ON HOW OUR VOLUNTEERS CAN BEST BE UTILIZED.
SO THE OTHER, UM, WARD MEMBERS THAT ARE ATTENDING THE MEETING OR DR.
RODRIGUEZ OR WENDY THINK THAT INCLUDES EVERYBODY? UM, ANY SUGGESTIONS? OKAY.
I JUST ASKED THEM TO IDENTIFY THEMSELVES.
I WAS TRYING TO JUST FIND MYSELF.
WELL, LET'S GO ON TO THE NEXT ONE.
AND DAVID, DO YOU WANT YOU AGREE ON TO THE NEXT, UH, AGENDA SETTING? IT SEEMS LIKE, YOU KNOW, WE'VE SOUGHT THEIR INPUT YET.
WE HAVEN'T RECEIVED IT, BUT I AGREE IN IT, YOU KNOW, IN MY MIND IT'S THEIR MEETING AGENDA, SO YEAH, LET'S MOVE ON.
I, I SEE EARL CAMPBELL'S JOINED US IN WILLIAM SMITH, BUT NOT MEL AT THIS POINT.
SO WE'LL GO ON TO THE DECEMBER 14TH, UH, BUSINESS MEETING AGENDA.
I KNOW I DO HAVE A QUESTION IN REFERENCE TO THE SIC MEETING.
[00:05:01]
THAT EVERYONE WOULD NOT JOIN THAT SIC MEETING.IS THAT WHAT YOU'RE SAYING? NO, I DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING LIKE THAT.
I'M NOT SURE WHAT YOU ARE REFERENCING AND THE SIC, MEANING I'VE THOUGHT YOU, YOU WERE SAYING THAT NOW.
MAYBE I CAME UP UNTIL I WAS TRYING TO YOU SAYING THAT AS I SEE ME, EVERYONE WAS ENJOYING, IT WAS, I WAS JOINING THAT MEETING.
AND WHO IS EVERYONE? ALL BOARD MEMBERS.
WELL, WE'RE WAITING TO W WHAT WE DISCUSSED.
WE DIDN'T TALK ANYTHING ABOUT BOARD MEETINGS, JOINING THE SIC MEETING.
CAUSE THAT'S NOT UNTIL, UH, UH, NEXT WEEK, WHAT WERE YOU WOULD DISCUSSED WAS THAT I TALKED TO ROBIN EARLIER TODAY ASKING WHAT WAS, SHE HAD TOLD ME THAT CHRISTINE CASPER HAD REACHED OUT TO THE
THAT'S, THAT'S WHAT WE DISCUSSED.
SO NOW WE'RE ON THE BUSINESS MEETING OF DECEMBER 14TH.
UM, SO THIS ONE WILL BE OVER AT THE MEDIA CENTER, UH, AT 2,900 MAKE POINT BOULEVARD.
AND WE HAVE OUR USUAL CLAIMER AT THE BEGINNING, INCLUDING THE, THE AGENDA DON'T COMPLETE IT.
WE'LL, UH, ROLL OVER TO THE FOLLOWING BUSINESS DAY AT 6:00 PM.
IT'S A LIMITED, WE DON'T HAVE TO START AT FOUR 30.
IT LOOKS LIKE THAT'S UP TO YOU ALL.
SO I WAS GOING TO ASK BEFORE YOU START CHANGING THE TIME.
WE HAVE THE PERSONNEL RATIFICATION REPORT AND A PERSONNEL MATTER.
THE ADULT EDUCATED REPORT AND THE PIRI THIRD YEAR CONTRACT REVIEW ANOTHER, UM, I WAS HOPING THAT WE'D GET AN UPDATE, UM, FROM OUR, UH, BOARD, UH, ATTORNEYS, UH, THAT'S HALLIGAN MAHONEY AND WILLIAMS GROUP ON WHERE THEY STAND WITH THE FISCAL AUTHORITY.
WENDY, PERHAPS YOU CAN, UM, SPEAK TO THAT.
I NEED TO DOUBLE CHECK ON THE DATE WITH THE COUNTY ATTORNEYS OF WHEN THEY'RE GOING TO BE DISCUSSING THAT MATTER IN A MEETING IT'S IN THE BEGINNING OF DECEMBER.
SO IT MAY BE THAT WE'LL HAVE TO HAVE TO MEET THAT FIRST.
WE MAY HAVE TO GET AN UPDATE THAT FIRST MEETING IN JANUARY.
I WOULD CHECK THAT DATE DOCTOR.
ANOTHER THING I WAS THINKING OF, UM, DAVID AND EVERYBODY THAT'S ON THE CALL IS, YOU KNOW, WE, WE HAVE, UH, A LOBBYIST LYNN STOKES, MARIE.
I KNOW, YOU KNOW, THE, THE LEGISLATORS WILL BE BACK IN SESSION IN JANUARY.
UM, WE DON'T NORMALLY GET AN UPDATE AT THIS TIME OF THE YEAR, CORRECT ROBIN FROM THEM.
BUT I DO THINK THAT PERHAPS I SHOULD REACH OUT TO LYNN.
UH, I PROBABLY, IT WOULD BE AFTER THE, UM, THE ATTORNEYS REPORT BACK ON WHERE THEY ARE WITH THE FISCAL AUTHORITY, UM, WORK, BECAUSE THAT'S ANOTHER WAY WE COULD ATTACK IT OR APPROACH IT IS THROUGH OUR LOBBYISTS BECAUSE SHE HAS, YOU KNOW, THE ACCESS AND CONNECTIONS WITH THE, THE BUFORD COUNTY DELEGATION.
IF, IF WE DO PUT THAT ON, WOULD THAT BE EXECUTIVE SESSION OR WOULD THAT BE, WOULD THAT BE OUT IN THE PUBLIC SESSION FOR MAHONEY WILLIAMS? YEAH.
IF THEY'RE GIVING US AN UPDATE ON WHERE WE ARE ON, I THINK IT WOULD BE UNDER BECAUSE, UM, IT'S LEGAL ADVICE, CORRECT, WENDY.
SO I GUESS WE'LL WAIT, WAIT AND SEE.
WENDY WILL, UM, INQUIRE WHEN THAT MEETING IS TAKING PLACE AND WHETHER OR NOT IT WILL GIVE THEM ADEQUATE TIME TO, UM, FORMULATE THEIR THINKING OR WHATEVER FOR OUR MEETING ON, IN MID DECEMBER OR WE'LL WAIT TILL THE MEETING FIRST MEETING IN JANUARY.
ANYTHING ELSE? UNDER EXECUTIVE SESSION? ANYBODY YEAH.
SO I DO THINK ROBIN THEN, WHY DON'T YOU PUT THE TIME AT FIVE
[00:10:01]
AND THEN IF, IF, UH, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE THE FISCAL AUTHORITY LEGAL ADVICE, WHICH IT DR.RODRIGUEZ, DO YOU THINK THAT'S AN ADEQUATE TIME TO ALSO DO THEIR HEARINGS? THIRD, THIRD YEAR CONTRACT REVIEW.
IT SHOULD BE, YEAH, IT SHOULD BE ALRIGHTY.
SO WE HAVE OUR USUAL, UH, APPROVAL AGENDA, PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE, ET CETERA, POINTS TO CELEBRATE.
THEN THERE MIGHT BE A STUDENT PERFORMANCE, UM, UH, IS SUPPOSED TO GET BACK WITH ME.
SO YOU ALSO NEED TO ADD TO THIS, UH, IF THERE'S ANY ACTION IS NECESSARY OR APPROPRIATE COMING OUT OF EXECUTIVE SESSION.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THAT NOW, BUT YOU CAN, YOU KNOW.
SO SEE ABOUT THE POINTS OF CELEBRATION, THEN FIRST PUBLIC COMMENTS CHAIRMAN'S REPORT.
I'M NOT SURE WHAT I WILL PROBABLY REPORT ON THE LEGISLATIVE, UH, THE S CSBA, UH, LEGISLATIVE CONFERENCE AT DELEGATE ASSEMBLY.
CAUSE THAT TAKES PLACE, UH, ABOUT 10 DAYS BEFORE THIS MEETING, YOU'LL HAVE IT, LET'S CALL IT THIS LEGISLATIVE, UH, CONFERENCE AND DELEGATE ASSEMBLY ASSEMBLY.
SO WE'LL CALL IT WHAT THEY CALL IT, DEALT WITH IT A T E ASSEMBLY.
AND THEN YOU CAN PUT UPDATE THERE IF YOU LIKE.
UM, AND I'LL SEE IF SOMETHING ELSE COMES, COMES UP BEFORE THEN ALSO THAT I'LL WANT TO ADD.
SO THEN WE'RE ON TO JUST RAISE YOUR HAND IF YOU'RE, IF YOU WANT TO, UM, ME TO CALL ON YOU NEXT UP, WE HAVE THE COMMITTEE REPORTS AND, UM, WE'VE GOT ACADEMICS, AD HOC, BLUFFTON FINANCE AND OPERATIONS TECHNOLOGY AND TECHNOLOGY.
SO WE'LL HAVE, I ASSUME SOME OES MAYBE COMING OUT OF THOSE.
UM, I JUST THOUGHT OF ANOTHER THING THAT CAN GO UNDER THE CHAIR REPORT AND THAT IS AN UPDATE ON, UM, OUR, UH, UH, IT'S GOING TO BE, UM, OUR WORK SESSION OR WORKSHOP WORK SESSION WITH, UH, COHERENT GOVERNANCE.
CAUSE THAT WILL HAVE TAKEN PLACE ALSO BY THEN.
SO DO WE HAVE TO GO THROUGH ANYTHING WITH THE INDIVIDUAL COMMITTEES OR NO, AT THIS POINT, OTHER THAN THERE'LL BE MEETING.
AND THEN WE'LL SEE WHAT COMES OUT OF THERE.
SO THEN WE'RE ONTO THE SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT AND UH, SO DR.
RODRIGUEZ, IF YOU WANNA, ARE YOU YEAH, YOU'RE ON A, SO YOU CAN, YOU CAN SEE THE AGENDA.
AND SO ON, ON THE SUPERINTENDENTS REPORT, UM, UNDER STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT, UH, WE'VE TALKED ABOUT CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT MODEL.
AND SO THIS PARTICULAR SECTION IS GOING TO BE ZEROING IN, ON OUR WORK AROUND PROFESSIONAL LEARNING COMMUNITIES THAT WE'VE BEEN DOING.
UH, SO, SO CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT REALLY, AS IT RELATES TO PROFESSIONAL LEARNING COMMUNITIES.
AND THEN, UM, I TALKED TO, UH, TANYA AND THE, THE ITEMS UNDER FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY ON THERE ARE THEY'RE THEY'RE, THEY'RE COMING IN JANUARY, UH, MEETING AND THERE.
AND THEN UNDER OTHER MATTERS, UH, WE HAVE THE COVID REPORT.
[00:15:03]
THEY WILL COME WITH, UH, WITH, UH, OTHER REPORTS.OH, YOU MEAN WITH THE OTHER FISCAL REPORTS OR IT'LL COME ON OR OTHER MATTERS? WELL, IT WILL COME UNDER, WE, WE USUALLY DO IT ON THE SECOND MEETING OF THE MONTH.
SO WE'RE TALKING WITH TANYA, WE'RE GONNA DO THOSE REPORTS AND WE'LL DO THE, THE SR UPDATE IN JANUARY.
READY? SO WE'RE GOING, GONNA HAVE THE COVID RIGHT? YES.
SO DID YOU HEAR THAT ROBIN? YEAH.
THAT'S IT ON THE SUPERINTENDENTS REPORT.
SO NEXT WE HAVE UNDER BOARD BUSINESS, WE HAVE TWO ITEMS, THE PRESENTATION BY HOPE PENDEGRASS OF THE
SO SHE'S I ASSUME WITH MALDEN AND JENKINS, CORRECT? I THINK SO.
I THINK I WOULD PUT MALDEN AND JENKINS THERE.
WHAT IF, AND THEN WE CAN INTRODUCE HER DAVID, UM, W WHAT IS, WHAT IS OUR ACTION ON THAT? DO WE ACCEPT IT? OR YOU HAVE TO TONYA BRINGS IT EVERY YEAR FOR THE BOARD TO APPROVE IT, OR WE APPROVE IT.
DO THEY MAKE THE PRESENTATION AND THEN YOU APPROVE IT.
SO WHY DON'T YOU SAY APPROVAL? YEAH, EXACTLY.
ROBYN APPROVAL OF ANNUAL FINANCIAL AUDIT AS PRESENTED BY LOOKS GOOD.
SO THEN THE NEXT ITEM IS THE APPROVAL OF THE 20, 22 BOARD MEETING CALENDAR.
AND, UM, I THINK THIS WOULD BE REAL IMPORTANT FOR US TO HAVE AHEAD OF TIME, A DRAFT A DOCUMENT.
NOT JUST THURSDAY NIGHT BEFORE THE MEETING.
COULD YOU SEND THAT OUT IF YOU ALREADY HAVE THAT READY? I DON'T, BUT, UH, TONYA AND I WILL BE WORKING ON IT THIS WEEK, SO, AND EARLY PART OF NEXT WEEK, SO, OKAY.
SO PART OF THAT IS GETTING IN THE BUDGET SCHEDULE.
AND SO I, SO WE'RE GETTING THAT TOGETHER AS WHAT THE COUNTY AND SO FAR.
SO THAT'S PART OF THE CALENDAR.
YEAH, I THINK IT WOULD BE VERY HELPFUL BECAUSE AS YOU KNOW, IT WOULD BE NICE TO TRY TO AVOID THESE, UH, THAT WE ENDED UP HAVING TO CHANGE DATES SEVERAL TIMES THIS YEAR, THAT WE ALL, THAT THE BOARD HAD TO APPROVE.
WELL, THAT'S ALSO, I HAVE TO GET GRADUATION.
IT'S A WHOLE LOT OF DATES TO HAVE TO GET IN HIGH AGREE.
SO THE NEXT THING IS OUR CONSENT AGENDA, AND WE'LL HAVE, UH, THREE MEETINGS THERE, UM, NOVEMBER TWO, 15 AND 17, THE MINUTES FOR THOSE.
SO I THINK YOU NEED ON THE THIRD ONE, ROBIN, THE SPECIAL CALLED EXECUTIVE SESSION MEETING MINUTES.
SO OUR, THE, YEAH, I GUESS IT WAS JUST, YEAH, IT JUST TELLS US WHAT THE MOTION WAS THAT WE CAME OUT OF EXECUTIVE SESSION WITH.
AND THEN WE HAVE THE FIRST QUARTER FINANCIAL REPORT AND FINANCIAL ADMINISTRATION, E SIX, 1.1 DASH
[00:20:01]
EIGHT.AND THEN THERE MAY BE OTHER COMMITTEE MEETING, UH, UH, MR. EARL CAMPBELL.
OH, I WAS JUST GOING TO ASK ABOUT THE, THE, UM, INSIDE.
I SEE, UM, THAT'S IN DECEMBER THE WHAT, THE FIRST OR THE SECOND TIME WE HAD IT UP THERE, UM, DECEMBER 2ND, IT'S THURSDAY AT 6:00 PM AND IT'S GOING TO BE VIRTUAL AND WE WERE GOING TO SET THE AGENDA TODAY, BUT EARL WE HAVE NOT, YOU KNOW, IT'S THE MEETING FOR THE SICD AND THEY HAVE NOT TOLD US WHAT THEY'D LIKE TO TALK ABOUT YET.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? BECAUSE I THINK WE'RE PRETTY MUCH FINISHED THE AGENDA.
YOU WANT TO DO THE FEATURE TOPICS TO SEE IF WE WANT TO PULL ANYTHING OFF.
AND I WAS, OH, THE PROCESS FOR VETTING VOLUNTEERS, SOME OF THESE SOUND LIKE BETTER, UM, WORK SESSION, UM, TOPICS RATHER THAN A BUSINESS MEETING COMMITTEE.
I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT THE SOCIAL MEDIA THAT, THAT WE TALKED ABOUT THAT, I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S DOING A POLICY FOR SOCIAL MEDIA VETTING OR YEAH.
I READ, UM, ANGER'S EMAIL ON THIS AND I THINK WE HAVE AN ADMINISTRATIVE REGULATION ON IT, SO I'M NOT SURE WE NEED A POLICY.
YOU WANT ME TO TAKE THAT OFF? I THINK IT SHOULD BE IN A WORK SESSION AND I'M REALLY OPPOSED TO SPENDING A LOT OF TIME REVIEWING THE ADMINISTRATIVE REGULATIONS IN BOARD MEETINGS.
I'D RATHER DO THAT IN WORK SESSIONS.
UH, IF PEOPLE DON'T HAVE A DISCUSSION ABOUT IT, IT'S A PROCESS FOR VETTING.
VOLUNTEERS SHOULD PUT THAT FOR A WORK SESSION TO, YEAH, TO ME, THAT SEEMS MUCH BETTER FOR A WORK SESSION THAN A REGULAR BUSINESS MEETING NOW BRIEFING ON MEDIA CENTERS, BATON WHO THAT BROUGHT THAT FORWARD.
DAVID, DO YOU REMEMBER DICK DID.
WE GOT A BRIEF, WE GOT A BRIEFING, UM, IN THE TECHNOLOGY COMMUNITY.
I'M NOT SURE HOW MUCH MORE THERE IS TO SAY.
I MEAN, I CAN MENTION IT IN THE UPDATE UPDATE FROM THE TECHNOLOGY COMMITTEE.
AND THAT THAT'LL KEEP IT SHORT.
CAN HE ELABORATE PLEASE? DISCUSSION ON EVALUATION BOOK THAT WAS DISTRIBUTED TO BOARD MEMBERS FROM DR.
WHAT'S WHAT ARE WE DISCUSSING EXACTLY WHAT YOU JUST SAID IS WHAT WAS GOING TO BE DISCUSSED IN THE BOOK.
YEAH, BUT THAT'S, UH, THAT'S NOT FOR, THAT WAS FOR HIS, OKAY.
THIS IS ME ANSWERING IT'S THE CHAIR, THAT BOOK WAS PROVIDED TO THE BOARD MEMBERS FOR HIS PROFESSIONAL ANNUAL REVIEW.
SO WE WOULD NOT BE DISCUSSING THAT IN PUBLIC.
UM, ONCE AGAIN, I'M REQUESTING THAT WE, THAT WE, THAT WE, THAT WE DISCUSSED THAT WE DISCUSSED, WE DISCUSSED IT IN PUBLIC BEFORE ONLINE LAST YEAR, IF I REMEMBER 78 HOURS SERVES ME.
SO I'M ASKING FOR US TO, TO, TO DISCUSS IT.
AND THAT'S WHAT I, THAT'S WHAT I'M ASKING FOR.
I HAVE NO OTHER, I HAVE NO OTHER COMMENTS.
YEAH, WE CAN'T DISCUSS THAT IN PUBLIC.
SO I'M NOT SURE IF THERE'S SOMETHING MORE SPECIFIC.
YOU KNOW, ONE OF THE THINGS I'M TRYING TO DO TO GET US, UM, UNDER, AT HAVING TO HAVE OUR AGENDAS MORE EFFICIENT IS TO BE REALLY AS SPECIFIC AS WE CAN BE ON THESE TOPICS.
[00:25:01]
IF IT'S THE, IF IT'S A DISCUSSION ON THE PROCESS OF EVALUATING DR.RODRIGUEZ, THAT'S A WHOLE DIFFERENT TOPIC THAN DISCUSSING THE BOOK.
CAUSE WE'RE NOT GOING TO DISCUSS THE BOOK.
SO I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH THIS, UNLESS ONCE TO WHEEL YOU, IF YOU WANT TO BE MORE SPECIFIC, MAYBE WE CAN GET IT OUT THERE, YOU KNOW, IN A PUBLIC SESSION.
BUT THE WAY TO STAND IS IT DOESN'T LOOK APPROPRIATE TO BE IN A PUBLIC SESSION.
SO MAYBE YOU COULD CLARIFY FOR, FOR ME, ANYHOW, UM, IN TERMS OF, I'VE ALREADY ASKED TO HAVE THE, THE PROCESS OF THIS AND ALL THAT TO JUST DISCUSS, UH, PUBLICLY, I DON'T KNOW, DOES DISCUSSING IT NOW IS IT IS JUST TOO MUCH.
I THINK THAT IT SHOULD BE DISCUSSED.
AND IF IT'S AN OFFICIAL IS WARRANTED AT THE TIME THAT THIS IS NOT THE CORRECT PLACE.
AND I THINK THAT THAT WOULD BE TIME, BUT I THINK DISCUSSING IT OR NOT, IT'S NOT, IT'S NOT, IT'S NOT THE CORRECT THING TO DO.
SO DAVID, YOU AND I ARE, WE DO NOT HAVE NO WITH US.
SO YOU'RE, I WOULD, I, I AGREE YOU AND I ARE ON THE SAME PAGE THAT IT'S NOT AN APPROPRIATE PUBLIC DISCUSSION, SO IT WILL NOT BE ADDED TO THE AGENDA FOR THIS MEETING.
WHAT'S THAT ABOUT? I THINK THAT WAS ANGELA'S.
THERE WAS, UM, I WOULD LIKE TO HEAR FROM THE DIRECTOR AND ASSISTANT DIRECTOR ABOUT RIGHT CHOICES AND THEIR PROCESSES, UM, BECAUSE I HAD AN INTERESTING CONVERSATION WITH ONE OF THE TEACHERS OVER THERE JUST BY HAPPENSTANCE.
AND, UM, HE SAID THERE ARE THREE TEACHERS OVER THERE AND THERE ARE 30 KIDS THERE AND ALL THREE TEACHERS ARE NOT CERTIFIED IN ALL OF THE AREAS FOR ALL OF THE STUDENTS.
SO THAT'S A CONCERN, ESPECIALLY THOSE STUDENTS THAT ARE THERE AND ARE IN HIGH SCHOOL, THEY HAVE QUIT FOR CREDIT COURSES.
SO I NEED TO KNOW, WE NEED TO KNOW WHAT RIGHTS CHOICES NEEDS.
IF THEY NEED MORE STAFF, WHAT CAN WE DO? UM, WHAT CAN WE DO TO MAKE SURE THAT ALL THE NEEDS OF THE STUDENTS THERE ARE MET? SO DAVID, I ALWAYS SUGGEST THAT WOULD BE A GOOD WORK SESSION TOPIC, AND THEN CAUSE IT HAS BUDGET IMPLICATIONS TO WORK THROUGH.
I WOULD LIKE TO, TO TALK THAT THROUGH AND SEE WHAT WE NEED TO DO TO GET THAT UP TO OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE.
BECAUSE IN OUR PREVIOUS MEETING THERE WAS SOME CONCERN IF YOU ALL RECALL IN OUR LAST MEETING, SO WE JUST NEED TO MAKE SURE WE JUST NEED TO KNOW, WE NEED TO HEAR FROM THE DIRECTOR AND ASSISTANT DIRECTOR.
AND I KNOW THIS, THE DIRECTOR, THIS IS HIS FIRST YEAR, BUT THE ASSISTANT DIRECTOR HAS BEEN THERE FOR THREE YEARS NOW.
SO SHE KNOWS THE, SHE KNOWS HOW THINGS ARE WORKING THERE AND WHAT'S WORKING AND WHAT'S NOT WORKING.
MR. WILLIAM, THANK YOU ANGELA, MR. WILLIAM SMITH.
UH, I THINK THAT THE INITIAL UNDERSTAND THE PROCESS, I THINK THAT COULD BE TAKING PLACE AT THE REGULAR SCHEDULED MEETING AND ANYTHING BEYOND THAT CAN BE TAKING PLACE OUT OF THE WORK SESSION.
UM, IF WE THINK IT'S A TO GO INTO THINGS, BUT I THINK UNDERSTANDING THE PROCESS OF IT, I THINK THE COMMUNITY WOULD LIKE TO KNOW THAT TOO.
I THINK THAT WOULD BE A GREAT PLACE FOR THAT.
I DON'T THINK THAT IT HAS TO NECESSARILY BE THAT PART OF IT HAS TO BE A WORK SESSION WE'RE GOING IN DETAILS AND TALKING ABOUT, UM, THE BUDGET AND ALL THAT STUFF THAT COULD TAKE PLACE AT THE BOARD SESSION, BY THE ACTUAL INITIAL, UNDERSTANDING IT IN A PRESENTATION SHOULD NOT BE A PROBLEM THERE FOR THAT TO COME APART, EVEN UNDER THE SUPERINTENDENT REPORT AND UPDATE ON, ON, ON RIGHT CHOICES, BECAUSE WE HADN'T HAD ONE OF THOSE IN AWHILE.
SO I DIDN'T ACTUALLY TAKE THAT COULD BE TAKEN PLACE AT THE BUSINESS MEETING.
ANGELA, I DO AGREE THAT IT DOES NEED TO BE A JEW.
WELL, WE NEED A PRESENTATION AND UPDATE ABOUT RIGHT CHOICES AT ONE OF OUR REGULAR BOARD MEETINGS, BUT I THINK IT SHOULD BE DONE AFTER THE WORK SESSION, BECAUSE THEN WE WOULD HAVE MORE INFORMATION ABOUT WHAT'S GOING ON AND GET SOME CLARIFICATION AND THEN WE CAN, UM, PROVIDE MORE INFORMATION TO THE PUBLIC ON HOW WE'RE GOING TO MOVE FORWARD IN ASSISTING THEM.
YOU'RE WELCOME, MR. SMITH'S HANDS BACK UP.
SO W UH, I'M ASKING, UH, SO WHAT IS GOING TO BE THE, UH, THE DECISION ON THE RIGHT CHOICES? SO NEITHER MR.
[00:30:01]
UH, I PERSONALLY THINK THAT THAT'S A SMART WAY TO DO IT IS FIRST HAVE A DISCUSSION ABOUT IT, AND THEN WE GET THE OVERVIEW FOR THE PUBLIC.
SO WE CAN GIVE A BETTER JUST AS ANGELA MIDDLETON JUST SAID, GIVE HER BETTER RESPONSE OF, DO WE NEED TO, UH, RECOMMEND CHANGES OR WHATEVER YOU'D I GUESS, CHANGES WITH, WITH THIS, OUR SUPERINTENDENT AND MR.
UM, IF WE'RE GOING TO DO IT, UH, AN OVERVIEW THAT USUALLY IS KIND OF A DEEP DIVE, SO, UM, IT'S GOING TO TAKE A WHILE AND WANT TO DO IT RIGHT.
AND THAT'S A WORK SESSION, SO I AGREE.
UM, SO THE NEXT THING WE NEED TO DECIDE IS THE, UM, IS OUR NEXT MEETING, OUR NEXT MEETING.
UM, WELL, IT'D BE KIND OF DIFFICULT BECAUSE DO YOU WANT TO MEET, SO OUR FIRST I TOLD YOU WE CAN MEET THE 20TH OR THE 21ST FOR THE JANUARY 4TH MEETING.
SO MONDAY OR TUESDAY OF THE CHRISTMAS WEEK? WELL, CHRISTMAS WAS ON SATURDAY.
EITHER OUR LAST, OUR LAST WORK DAY IS THE 21ST.
SO, UM, EITHER OF THOSE ARE FINE WITH ME, I'LL IT SEEMS LIKE FOR YOU, ROBIN, THAT SINCE THE 21ST IS YOUR LAST DAY, THAT IT'S THE 20TH THROUGH THE 20TH, UNLESS THAT'S NOT, UNLESS THAT'S A PROBLEM FOR DAVID, DO YOU HAVE INPUT DAVID? OH, NO.
I, UH, SO I CAN, I CAN DO IT WHENEVER, WHENEVER IT'S BEST FOR EVERYBODY ELSE.
IT SEEMS LIKE WE'RE KIND OF SETTLED UPON FOUR O'CLOCK VIA, UM, VIA ZOOM ON DECEMBER 20TH, WHICH IS A MONDAY AND THE MEETING IS, IS, UH, JANUARY 4TH ON A TUESDAY.
SO CAN YOU JUST REACH OUT TO MAIL, UH, TOMORROW MORNING AND JUST VERIFY THAT HE CAN DO IT THEN BECAUSE WE STILL HAVE THE OPTION.
DO WE HAVE ANY FURTHER, UH, BUSINESS TO DISCUSS? IS THERE ALL RIGHT, DAVID? NO.
I JUST THOUGHT OF ONE THING WHILE WE, WELL, WE'LL STILL ON, UM, WILLS FUN.
CAUSE I THOUGHT THERE WAS A MEETING LAST WEEK.
SO WE WOULD GET AN UPDATE ON THAT ALSO ON THE COMMITTEE UPDATES ON THE AGENDA COMMITTEE, IT SEEMS LIKE THEY ONLY MEET LIKE TWICE A YEAR OR SO.
UM, BUT YEAH, I WISH WE SHOULD HAVE AN UPDATE.
I'M SURE THAT CONSTITUENTS WOULD LIKE TO HEAR.
CAUSE THEY HAD OFFICES AND THEY HAD ELECTIONS.
I THINK THAT WAS THE LAST UPDATE WE HAD WAS THE ELECTION OF OFFICERS FOR THIS YEAR.
IT SEEMS LIKE WE'VE COVERED OUR BUSINESS FOR SPEEDING.
IF I HEAR FROM KRISTIN, I WILL SEND THE AGENDA TO YOU ALL TOMORROW TO SEE, UM, FOR YOU ALL FOR THE SIC.
SO, UM, DAVID AND I ARE THINKING YOU NEED US CONSENT TO ADJOURN.
