Jun 20, 2023 Special Board of Trustees

[00:00:03]

GOOD AFTERNOON.

IT IS 2:02 AND I'M CALLING A SPECIAL MEETING OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF FRISCO ISD.

WE HAVE THREE AGENDA ITEMS TODAY AND WE WILL BEGIN WITH DISCUSSION REGARDING SURVEY RESULTS.

[1. Discussion regarding survey results]

CUNNINGHAM. THANK YOU, MADAM PRESIDENT.

I WOULD LIKE TO INVITE DR.

GARY NYE, OUR MANAGING DIRECTOR OF ASSESSMENT AND ACCOUNTABILITY TO THE PODIUM, TO INTRODUCE OUR PARTNER TODAY FROM K12 INSIGHT AND GIVE YOU A LITTLE BIT OF BACKGROUND AS TO THE PURPOSE OF THE DISCUSSION ITEM.

DR. NIGH.

THANK YOU, DR. FOUCHE.

IT'S LIKE I KNEW SOMETHING DIDN'T QUITE SOUND.

SOUND RIGHT. IT SOUNDS OKAY.

VERY GOOD. SO, AGAIN, THE PURPOSE OF THIS TIME IS REALLY TO SPEND TIME WITH AMY FROM K 12 INSIGHT AND TO PROVIDE SOME HIGH LEVEL SUMMARIES OF THE INFORMATION PROVIDED.

AS YOU KNOW FROM OUR WORKSHOP EARLIER, FRISCO ISD HAS A HISTORY OF SEEKING FEEDBACK FROM OUR STAFF AND STAKEHOLDERS SO THAT WE CAN CONTINUE TO IMPROVE OUR EFFORTS ALIGNED TO OUR MISSION.

TODAY'S GOAL IS SIMPLY TO GIVE YOU A FIRST LOOK AT THE DATA, HOW IT'S PRESENTED AND HOW IT'S PRESENTED.

BUT PLEASE NOTE THIS IS A LONG TERM PROCESS AND WE'LL BE GOING OVER THIS DATA IN THE AND IN THE UPCOMING MONTHS.

AS TODAY'S PRESENTATION IS SHARED, YOU MAY BE INCLINED TO ASK WHAT WE'RE DOING IN RESPONSE TO THIS DATA.

PLEASE KNOW WE ARE STILL IN THE PROCESS OF ANALYZING THE DATA OURSELVES.

WE'RE STILL RECEIVING SOME SUMMARY REPORTS RELATED TO THE SURVEY DATA.

SO THIS IS ONE PIECE OF DATA THAT MISS SMITH MENTIONED TO YOU AT YOUR WORKSHOP ON PRIORITIES AT THE END OF MAY.

AND WE'LL CONTINUE TO TRIANGULATE THIS DATA ALONG WITH OTHER DATA SOURCES THAT'S BEEN COLLECTED THROUGH THE YEAR.

YOU WILL SEE A RESPONSE TO THESE DATA IN ALIGNMENT WITH THE PRIORITIES THAT YOU'LL END UP ADOPTING AS A BOARD.

AND YOU'LL SEE THOSE YOU'LL SEE THAT ALIGNMENT THROUGH THE GOALS, ACTION PLANS AND STRATEGIES THAT WILL BE PRESENTED TO YOU IN THE FALL.

FOR TODAY, THIS TIME HAS BEEN SPECIFICALLY SET UP FOR K 12 INSIGHT TO SHARE THEIR PERSPECTIVES AND PRELIMINARY ANALYSIS WITH YOU.

OUR FOCUS TODAY WILL BE WORKING TO UNDERSTAND THIS DATA AND TO WORK TO PROVIDE SOME CONTEXT TO THE DATA AS OPPOSED TO DISCUSSING SPECIFIC ACTION PLANS.

AT TIMES YOU'LL HEAR AMY PROVIDE SOME BENCHMARK ANALYSIS AND COMPARATIVE INFORMATION.

ADDITIONALLY, SHE CAN PROVIDE SOME GOOD CONTEXT AROUND PARTICIPATION RATES AND OTHER PERCENTAGES BY GROUP.

FOR EXAMPLE, HOW DO STUDENTS RESPONSES COMPARE TO PARENT RESPONSES AND OVERALL SATISFACTION? AMY CAN HELP YOU WITH SOME BASIC QUALITATIVE COMPARISON CONTEXT AS WE DISCUSS SOME BASIC RESULTS TODAY.

I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO INTERACT WITH AMY TO ENSURE YOU HAVE AN UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT IS BEING SHARED, ALL THE WHILE KNOWING THAT ADMINISTRATION AND CAMPUS LEADERS ARE CONTINUING THE ANALYSIS OF THE SURVEY DATA.

AS LONG AS AS WE GET ADDITIONAL SUMMARIES FROM K 12 INSIGHT.

SO THIS KIND OF SETTING THE STAGE.

AMY, I AM GOING TO IF YOU'RE READY, I'M GOING TO PASS IT OVER TO YOU.

AND THIS IS MISS AMY BELL WITH DR.

AMY BELL WITH K12 INSIGHT.

THANK YOU. I THREW A CURVE BALL.

I ADDED MY NEW LAST NAME, AMY BELL-FREEZE.

SO YOU CAN CALL ME AMY BELL OR AMY FREEZE, WHICHEVER.

BUT HELLO, EVERYBODY AND MEMBERS OF THE BOARD.

THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING ME TO CALL IN THIS AFTERNOON.

I WAS ACTUALLY JUST DOWN IN FRISCO A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO, BUT FOR PURPOSES OF OUR CALL TODAY, I'M HAPPY TO ZOOM IN.

I AM GOING TO SHARE MY SCREEN.

SO I HAVE THE THE FULL OVERALL DISTRICT REPORT ON THE SCREEN.

IT'S A LITTLE BIT OVER 80 SLIDES.

WE'RE NOT GOING TO GO THROUGH EVERY SINGLE SLIDE.

I'M GOING TO JUST TOUCH ON SOME OF THE MAIN COMPARISON SLIDES.

BUT I DECIDED TO INCLUDE THE FULL COMPREHENSIVE DATA.

THAT WAY, IF THERE'S QUESTIONS, I CAN POP BACK TO SOME OF THOSE OTHER SLIDES IF NEEDED.

UM, JUST TO GIVE YOU A LITTLE BACKGROUND ON K12 INSIGHT, WE ARE A RESEARCH AND COMMUNICATIONS FIRM BASED IN HERNDON, VIRGINIA, WHICH IS JUST OUTSIDE OF

[00:05:03]

SO THIS FIRST OVERVIEW SLIDE JUST GOES OVER THE NUTS AND BOLTS OF THE SURVEY.

SO IT INCLUDES ALL OF THE SURVEY TOPICS.

THE DATES OF THE SURVEY WAS OPEN FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS FROM APRIL 12TH TO MAY 1ST.

PARENTS AND STAFF RECEIVED EMAIL INVITATIONS TO PARTICIPATE, AND PARENTS COULD ALSO PARTICIPATE THROUGH A LINK ON THE WEBSITE. AND THEN STUDENTS PARTICIPATED IN SCHOOL THROUGH A CUSTOM URL.

NOW THE SURVEY IS MOSTLY SCHOOL BASED QUESTIONS, BUT THERE WERE SOME DISTRICT RELATED QUESTIONS, SO ALL STAFF WERE INVITED TO PARTICIPATE.

BUT THOSE WHO DON'T WORK AT A CAMPUS WERE SKIPPED TO JUST THE DISTRICT FOCUS QUESTIONS AND JUST A COUPLE NOTES ABOUT JUST OUR PROCESS.

SO WE UTILIZE CENSUS SAMPLING, WHICH MEANS EVERYBODY IS INVITED TO PARTICIPATE.

HOWEVER, NOT EVERYBODY DOES.

AND SO WHEN IT COMES TO PRESENTING DATA, WE TEND OR WE DO DESCRIPTIVE STATISTICS BECAUSE THAT'S THE MOST APPROPRIATE FOR THE TYPE OF CENSUS SAMPLING.

AND WHAT IT OFFERS IS VALUABLE INSIGHT INTO THE PERCEPTIONS OF YOUR COMMUNITY.

AND ALSO YOU MAY SEE SOME DATA LABELS THAT ARE MISSING.

THAT'S BECAUSE ANYTHING LESS THAN 5% WE HIDE JUST TO KEEP THE SLIDES FROM BEING CLUTTERED.

SO THAT'S KIND OF NUTS AND BOLTS THERE.

SO THERE IS A SUMMARY AND INSIGHTS TWO SLIDES.

AND FOR THE SAKE OF OUR CONVERSATION, I'M NOT GOING TO READ OFF THESE AT THE MOMENT.

AND AS WE GET TO EACH OF THOSE SLIDES, I'LL JUST HIGHLIGHT THESE POINTS THAT ARE HIGHLIGHTED HERE, BUT YOU'LL SEE THAT THEY MIRROR THE SURVEY TOPICS.

ALL RIGHT. SO JUST TO START OFF WITH PARTICIPATION, OVERALL PARTICIPATION WAS REALLY GOOD, ESPECIALLY FOR A FIRST YEAR SURVEY.

SO PARENTS AND GUARDIANS ARE LOOKING AT.

WE DON'T PROVIDE A RESPONSE RATE FOR PARENTS BECAUSE THEY COULD PARTICIPATE MULTIPLE WAYS AND THEN ALSO THEY COULD TAKE IT AGAIN FOR IF THEY HAVE MORE THAN ONE CHILD IN THE DISTRICT.

BUT GENERALLY YOU'RE LOOKING AT ABOUT 15% PARTICIPATION FROM PARENTS, WHICH IS IN LINE WITH WHAT WE SEE ACROSS THE BOARD WITH OUR OTHER DISTRICT PARTNERS AS WELL. THE STAFF WAS 41% AND THEN SECONDARY STUDENTS 45%.

AND THE ELEMENTARY STUDENTS IN GRADES FOUR AND FIVE WERE AT 80%.

AND THOSE THE STAFF WAS PRETTY CLOSE TO WHAT WE TYPICALLY TARGET THE SECONDARY.

LIKE I SAID, FOR FIRST YEAR, THAT'S THAT'S PRETTY GOOD, AS WE MOVE THROUGH FUTURE YEARS, WE MIGHT WANT TO TRY TO GET THE SECONDARY SURVEY UP, BUT YOU'RE STILL LOOKING AT A PRETTY GOOD RESPONSE RATE FROM YOUR STUDENTS.

NOW THE WAY THE REPORT IS STRUCTURED, GENERALLY WHEN THERE YOU'LL SEE COMPARISON SLIDES LIKE THIS.

SO YOU CAN SEE HOW EACH GROUP RESPONDED TO EACH QUESTION.

AND THEN FOR SOME OF THE OTHER QUESTIONS, WE HAVE ADDITIONAL SLIDES FOR THE TOPIC.

ONE OF THE VERY FIRST QUESTIONS THAT ALL PARTICIPANTS WERE ASKED IS HOW THEY WOULD RATE THE OVERALL QUALITY OF EDUCATION AT THEIR SCHOOL AND ON AN EXCELLENT, GOOD, FAIR, POOR RATING OR ANSWER OPTIONS.

AND THE HIGHEST GROUP WAS WAS CAMPUS BASED STAFF THAT PARTICIPATED.

THEY SAID 92% MARKED EXCELLENT OR GOOD.

THEN YOU HAVE THE ELEMENTARY STUDENTS NEXT TO 87%.

PARENTS AND GUARDIANS, 85%.

AND SECONDARY STUDENTS AT 83% OF EXCELLENT OR GOOD.

AND I KNOW THIS IS A BASELINE YEAR.

SO THIS YOU KNOW, AS YOU DO FUTURE YEARS, WE CAN COMPARE AND TREND RESULTS TO YOUR SPECIFIC DISTRICT.

BUT WE DO BENCHMARK THIS SURVEY ACROSS OUR PARTNERS ACROSS THE COUNTRY.

SO JUST FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES.

I DON'T HAVE A SLIDE FOR THIS, BUT I JUST I HAVE SOME NOTES ON THE SIDE FOR SOME KEY DATA POINTS THAT GO ALONG WITH OUR BENCHMARKS.

SO WE'RE STILL IN THE PROCESS OF COLLECTING OR FINALIZING OUR BENCHMARK REPORT FOR THE 22-23 SCHOOL YEAR.

BUT LAST YEAR, PARENTS AND GUARDIANS NATIONALLY, 83% MARKED EXCELLENT OR GOOD.

AND THEN IN FRISCO YOU HAD 85 FOR PARENTS WHO ARE A LITTLE BIT HIGHER THAN THE NATIONAL AVERAGE ACTUALLY IN ALL CATEGORIES.

THE NATIONAL AVERAGE FOR STAFF WAS 81% COMPARED TO YOUR 92% AND FOR SECONDARY STUDENTS IS THE BIGGEST

[00:10:04]

THE NATIONAL AVERAGE IS 67% COMPARED TO YOUR 83%.

THAT'S A VERY POSITIVE DATA, SOMETHING THAT'S NOTED IN THE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY.

OR IN THE SUMMARY INSIGHTS.

ALSO, IT'S KIND OF A HIGH LEVEL SNAPSHOT DATA POINT IS THE NET PROMOTER SCORE.

SO PARTICIPANTS, PARENTS, STAFF AND STUDENTS WERE ASKED.

HOW LIKELY THEY WOULD BE TO RECOMMEND THEIR SCHOOL TO A FRIEND OR FAMILY MEMBER.

AND THE GREENS, THOSE ARE PEOPLE THAT RESPONDED WITH A NINE OR A TEN.

THE GRAY IS THE SEVENTH AND EIGHT, AND THEN ANYBODY WHO RESPONDED 0 TO 6 IS A DETRACTOR.

SO TO GET THE ACTUAL NET PROMOTER SCORE, YOU TAKE THE THE GREEN MINUS THE RED, SO THE PROMOTERS MINUS DETRACTOR'S, YOU'LL SEE A NUMBER ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE.

SO FOR PARENTS, THE NET PROMOTER SCORE IS 28.

CAMPUS BASED OFFICE 33.

AND FOR SECONDARY STUDENTS, IT'S -29.

BUT JUST FOR REFERENCE, THAT'S TYPICALLY WHAT WE SEE.

WE TEND TO SEE SECONDARY STUDENTS HAVE NEGATIVE NUMBERS, BUT IN COMPARISON, THE NATIONAL AVERAGE FOR PARENTS AND GUARDIANS AND NET PROMOTER SCORE IS 22 COMPARED TO YOUR 28.

SO YOU'RE YOU'RE HIGHER THERE.

THE STAFF NATIONAL AVERAGE IS 17 COMPARED TO YOUR 33 AND THEN THE NATIONAL AVERAGE FOR STUDENTS IS -36 OR HIGHER ON ALL THREE AREAS THERE.

SO THE OVERALL QUALITY AND THE NATIONAL OR THE NET PROMOTER SCORE IS KIND OF GOOD OVERALL SNAPSHOT OF JUST HOW YOUR COMMUNITY PERCEIVES EDUCATION AND WHETHER OR NOT THEY WOULD RECOMMEND FRISCO OR ACTUALLY NOT.

IN THAT CASE, IT'S THE THEIR INDIVIDUAL SCHOOL.

SO THERE'S SOME FOLLOW UP QUESTIONS AS WELL TO THAT, WHERE PARTICIPANTS WERE ASKED TO WHAT ASPECTS OF THEIR SCHOOL OR THEIR CHILD'S SCHOOL IMPACTED THAT SCORE OF 0 TO 10 ON THIS, ON THE PREVIOUS QUESTION AND THE ANSWER SCALE WAS VERY POSITIVE IMPACT.

IT'S A FIVE POINT SCALE TO A VERY NEGATIVE IMPACT.

AND. WHAT YOU'RE SEEING HERE IS THE COMPARISON BETWEEN RESPONDENT TYPES AND YOU'RE LOOKING AT JUST THE PERCENTAGES OF VERY POSITIVE IMPACT OR POSITIVE IMPACT. SO ESSENTIALLY, FOR EXAMPLE, THE ACADEMIC SUPPORT QUESTION AT THE TOP, 78% OF PARENTS PARTICIPATING, PARENTS AND GUARDIANS, SAID THAT THE ACADEMIC SUPPORT AT THEIR CHILD'S SCHOOL HAD A VERY POSITIVE IMPACT OR POSITIVE IMPACT ON THAT ON THIS ON THE NET PROMOTER SCORE.

AND SO WHAT THIS ALLOWS YOU TO SEE IS THOSE AREAS THAT ARE WHAT ASPECTS OF THE SCHOOL ARE THE STRONGEST.

AND SO FOR PARENTS AND STUDENTS, IT'S ACADEMIC SUPPORT.

AND FOR CAMPUS BASED STAFF, IT'S INTERACTIONS WITH STAFF AND TEACHERS.

AND THE REST OF THE REPORT, GENERALLY, YOU'LL SEE A COMPARISON CHART LIKE THIS BETWEEN THE PARTICIPANT GROUPS.

AT THE BOTTOM, THERE'S A NOTE THAT WILL TELL YOU WHAT THE ANSWER OPTIONS AVAILABLE WERE.

AND THEN YOU'LL ALSO BE ABLE TO SEE THE INDIVIDUAL RESPONSES FOR EACH PARTICIPANT GROUP SO YOU CAN SEE WHO'S RESPONDING IN THE UPPER LEFT HAND CORNER.

AND THEN YOU CAN ACTUALLY SEE THE PERCENTAGE OF, IN THIS CASE, VERY POSITIVE IMPACT.

POSITIVE IMPACT.

NO IMPACT. NEGATIVE.

VERY NEGATIVE IMPACT.

UM, SO I'M NOT GOING TO FOCUS ON THESE SLIDES AS MUCH, BUT I JUST WANTED TO POINT OUT THAT THESE ARE THERE, UM, THERE'S A COUPLE OF SLIDES A LITTLE BIT LATER THAT I'LL USE THE INDIVIDUAL RESPONSES AS SOME EXAMPLES, BUT I JUST WANTED TO POINT IT OUT, POINT OUT THAT, THAT THESE ARE THERE.

SO THE NEXT THING IS WHEN WE GET INTO ALL OF THE SURVEY TOPICS, SO THERE ARE ACADEMIC SUPPORT, STUDENT SUPPORT, ETCETERA.

THIS DIMENSION SCORE SLIDE IS A REALLY NICE SNAPSHOT OF JUST WHERE THE MOST FAVORABLE PERCEPTIONS ARE COMING FROM.

SO WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING AT IS THE PERCENTAGE OF STRONGLY AGREE OR AGREE RESPONSES FOR ALL OF THE QUESTIONS WITHIN EACH SURVEY TOPIC. SO JUST TO HELP EXPLAIN, I'M GOING TO JUMP TO TWO SLIDES.

SO THIS IS THE ACADEMIC SUPPORT QUESTIONS FOR THE PARENTS AND GUARDIANS INDIVIDUAL RESPONSES.

SO THE GREEN IS EITHER STRONGLY AGREE OR AGREE.

THEN YELLOW YOU GET DISAGREE OR STRONGLY DISAGREE AND THEN GRAY IS DON'T KNOW.

SO ON THAT DIMENSION SCORE SLIDE, WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING AT IS THE AVERAGE AGREEMENT.

SO BASICALLY THE AVERAGE PERCENTAGE OF ALL THOSE GREEN RESPONSES FOR EACH PARTICIPANT GROUP.

SO THIS JUST GIVES YOU A SNAPSHOT AGAIN OF WHERE THE FAVORABILITY IS COMING FROM, WHAT AREAS MIGHT HAVE THE STRONGEST POSITIVE FEEDBACK?

[00:15:09]

STAFF WILL RESPOND THE HIGHEST.

THEN USUALLY PARENTS AND THEN FOLLOWED BY SECONDARY STUDENTS.

I THE ELEMENTARY STUDENTS DID PARTICIPATE, BUT THEY HAD A DIFFERENT.

THEY HAD SIMPLE, MORE SIMPLIFIED QUESTIONS.

THEY HAD LESS QUESTIONS AND THEIR QUESTIONS WERE ON A SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT ANSWER SCALE.

SO FOR MOST QUESTIONS, YOU WON'T SEE THE ELEMENTARY COMPARISONS INCLUDED.

ALL RIGHT, SO GETTING IN, SO THE DIMENSION SCORES LIKE I SAID, THIS IS AN OVERALL VIEW OF JUST KIND OF WHERE PERCEPTION DATA ACROSS ALL OF THE SURVEY TOPICS.

AND THEN FOR EACH SURVEY TOPIC, YOU CAN SEE THE ACTUAL COMPARISON BY RESPONDENT TYPES FOR EACH SPECIFIC SURVEY QUESTION.

SO THIS IS THE FIRST SLIDE IN EACH SECTION.

SO IN THIS CASE, YOU'LL SEE THE GREEN THAT'S THE PARENT GUARDIAN RESPONSES AND THAT'S THE AVERAGE AGREE OR STRONGLY AGREE RESPONSES FOR EACH QUESTION. THEN THE BLUE IS THE CAMPUS SPACE STAFF AND THE SECONDARY STUDENTS OF GRADE 6 TO 12.

IT'S IN YELLOW. AND IF THERE'S AN NA, THAT MEANS THAT THAT PARTICIPANT GROUP DID NOT ANSWER THAT PARTICULAR QUESTION.

AND WORDING, THE WORDING VARIED SLIGHTLY BY PARTICIPANT GROUPS ON THE COMPARISON SLIDES.

YOU'LL HAVE THE WORDING FOR THE PARENT GUARDIAN SURVEY.

SO I MENTIONED EARLIER THAT EACH THERE'S INDIVIDUAL RESPONSES SO THAT THE COMPARISON SLIDES ARE NICE BECAUSE THEY SHOW YOU WHERE THERE MIGHT BE SOME PERCEPTION GAPS.

SO, FOR EXAMPLE, THE SECOND TO LAST ITEM, IT SAYS TEACHER SUCCESSFULLY SHOW HOW LESSONS RELATE TO OUTSIDE OF SCHOOL.

YOU'LL SEE THAT 82% OF STAFF EITHER AGREED OR STRONGLY AGREED.

IF YOU WERE PARENTS AT 58% AND FEWER STUDENTS AT 46% AGREED WITH THAT STATEMENT.

SO WERE THOSE INDIVIDUAL RESPONSES COME IN HANDY IS YOU CAN SEE, SO FOR EXAMPLE, THE SAME QUESTION, 21% OF PARENTS RESPONDED THAT THEY DON'T KNOW.

SO THAT THE DON'T KNOW RESPONSES CAN BE VERY ILLUMINATING IN COMMUNICATING, YOU KNOW, MAYBE AREAS FOR POTENTIAL COMMUNICATION TO YOUR TO YOUR COMMUNITY.

AND THEN IF YOU LOOK AT THAT SAME ITEM ON STUDENTS, YOU'LL SEE THAT THE DISAGREEMENT SORRY THAT'S RIGHT HERE THAT YOU'RE LOOKING AT 46% DISAGREEMENT FROM THE STUDENT.

SO WHEN YOU GO BACK, LET ME GO BACK TO THE COMPARISON SLIDE.

SO WHAT WHEN YOU SEE BIGGER PERCEPTION GAPS, SOMETIMES IT'S IMPORTANT TO GO SEE IS IT THAT DON'T KNOW RESPONSES ARE HIGH OR IS IT THAT DISAGREEMENT IS HIGH? SO DON'T JUST ASSUME BECAUSE IT'S LOW, THAT DISAGREEMENT IS AUTOMATICALLY HIGH.

UM, ALSO SO AGAIN, WITH THE INDIVIDUAL RESPONSES NEXT TO EACH QUESTION, YOU'LL SEE AN N EQUALS, AND THAT'S THE NUMBER OF PARTICIPANTS THAT RESPONDED TO THAT QUESTION.

AND YOU'LL SEE THAT NUMBER KIND OF VARY THROUGHOUT BECAUSE PEOPLE SKIP QUESTIONS.

UM. OKAY. SORRY.

IT'S ON THE SIDE HERE.

ALL RIGHT. THIS IS THE ACADEMIC SUPPORT QUESTIONS FOR ELEMENTARY SCHOOL.

SO YOU'LL SEE THAT THEY HAD THEY COULD RESPOND.

YES, NO OR YES SOMETIMES OR NO.

AND THEIR QUESTIONS, THE WORDING WAS A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT.

BUT THEY TEND TO YOU'LL TEND TO SEE ELEMENTARY STUDENTS RESPOND MORE FAVORABLE THAN THAN SECONDARY STUDENTS.

UM. SO FOR THE STUDENT SUPPORT SECTION.

WHEN YOU LOOK AT THESE QUESTIONS BY COMPARISON, YOU'LL SEE THAT HAVING A SCHOOL STAFF MEMBER FOR STUDENTS TO GO TO WITH A SCHOOL PROBLEM HAD HIGH AGREEMENT ACROSS ALL OF THE PARTICIPANT GROUPS.

SO, FOR EXAMPLE, YOU CAN SEE 98% OF THE CAMPUS BASED STAFF EITHER AGREED OR STRONGLY AGREED WITH THAT, COMPARED TO 84% OF THE PARENTS AND GUARDIANS AND 80% OF THE SECONDARY STUDENTS.

AND AGAIN, THIS SLIDE JUST HELPS TO SHOW WHERE THERE MIGHT BE SOME PERCEPTION GAPS BETWEEN THE GROUPS.

AND AGAIN, IF YOU NEED TO, YOU CAN ALWAYS LOOK AT THE INDIVIDUAL RESPONSES JUST TO SEE THE ACTUAL YOU KNOW WHAT QUESTION ANSWER OPTIONS EACH PARTICIPANT GROUP RESPONDED WITH.

BUT FOR THE SAKE OF OUR CONVERSATION AND NOT SPENDING TOO LONG, I'M GOING TO FOCUS MAINLY ON THOSE COMPARISON SLIDES.

[00:20:06]

ALL RIGHT. SO EMOTIONAL AND SOCIAL SUPPORT.

SO THERE WERE SOME PERCEPTION GAPS BETWEEN THE PARTICIPANT GROUPS HERE.

THE LARGEST GAP WAS WHERE 82% OF CAMPUS BASED STAFF MEMBERS AND 77% OF PARENTS AGREED OR STRONGLY AGREED THAT STUDENTS LOOK FORWARD TO SCHOOL EACH DAY.

SO THAT'S THIS. ON THE SECOND.

SORRY. THERE'S TWO SLIDES.

THAT'S ON THIS SECOND ITEM.

LET ME GO BACK FOR A MOMENT SO YOU CAN TAKE A LOOK.

PARENTS DIDN'T ANSWER THAT.

THAT THIRD QUESTION. THAT WAS A STUDENT AND STAFF QUESTION ONLY.

I'LL SEE YOU AGAIN. THE BIGGER GAP BETWEEN STAFF AND PARENTS ON SCHOOL ENJOYMENT VERSUS THE STUDENTS.

AND THESE QUESTIONS THE EMOTIONAL AND SOCIAL SUPPORT QUESTIONS.

THESE WERE FRISCO SPECIFIC.

SO IN TERMS OF COMPARING THAT TO OUR BENCHMARK, WE DON'T HAVE THAT DATA.

AND THEN OF COURSE, YOU'LL SEE THAT THE INDIVIDUAL RESPONSES, SCHOOL LEADERSHIP WAS ANOTHER BENCHMARK QUESTION.

THERE WAS A FEW OR TWO QUESTIONS THAT PARENTS DIDN'T ANSWER ABOUT VISIBILITY ON CAMPUS DURING THE DAY AND THEN AT EVENTS.

THOSE ARE THE TWO MIDDLE QUESTIONS.

SO YOU CAN JUST SEE YOU'LL TEND TO SEE IF A STUDENTS DON'T HAVE AS MUCH INTERACTION WITH THEIR PRINCIPAL OR ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL.

SOMETIMES YOU'LL SEE HIGHER DON'T KNOW RESPONSES TO THIS ITEM OR TO THESE THESE ITEMS. UM, NOW, IF THERE WAS A FOLLOW UP QUESTION ASKING PARTICIPANTS IF THEY INTERACTED OR REACHED OUT TO A PRINCIPAL OR ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL THIS YEAR.

SO YOU CAN SEE MORE STAFF INTERACTED WITH LEADERSHIP THAN THE OTHER TWO GROUPS.

AND IF THEY HAD INTERACTED WITH THEIR LEADERSHIP, THEY WERE ASKED A FEW FOLLOW UP QUESTIONS.

SO YOU'LL SEE DOWN HERE AT THE BOTTOM THOSE THE END COUNTS ARE MUCH LESS BECAUSE YOU'RE ONLY LOOKING AT A SMALLER GROUP THAT ANSWERED THIS.

BUT THESE ARE QUESTIONS AROUND HOW RESPONSIVE, COURTEOUS AND HELPFUL THE PRINCIPAL OR ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL WAS.

GENERALLY, THESE ARE PRETTY FAVORABLE THERE.

UH, THE FAMILY INVOLVEMENT QUESTIONS.

THESE WERE ONLY ASKED OF PARENTS AND GUARDIANS AND CAMPUS BASED STAFF.

UM, SO YOU CAN SEE THE COMPARISON GROUPS THERE.

UM. PRETTY HIGH ACROSS THE GROUPS, EXCEPT ON THAT THAT LAST ITEM.

YOU'LL SEE THERE'S A SLIGHT PERCEPTION GAP IN TERMS OF THE SCHOOL PROVIDING FAMILIES THE OPPORTUNITY TO PROVIDE INPUT ON ON THE SCHOOL ENVIRONMENT.

SO YOU'LL SEE THAT 79% OF THE STAFF EITHER AGREED OR STRONGLY AGREED WITH THAT, COMPARED TO 64% OF THE PARENTS AND GUARDIANS.

AND YOU'LL SEE THAT ONE QUESTION THAT FOR PARENTS OR 13% DON'T KNOW.

SO THAT, YOU KNOW, IT COULD BE A GOOD OPPORTUNITY FOR COMMUNICATION IF THERE ARE YOU KNOW, SOME PARENTS UNDERSTAND WHAT THEIR OPPORTUNITIES ARE.

AND THAT SAME THING FOR STAFF THAT HAD HIGHER DON'T KNOW AS WELL.

THE SAFETY AND BEHAVIOR QUESTIONS.

YOU CAN SEE THAT IN TERMS OF BEING AWARE OF SAFETY AND SECURITY PROCEDURES, THAT'S PRETTY, PRETTY HIGH AGREEMENT AMONG PARTICIPANT GROUPS.

THERE IS A SLIGHTLY BIGGER PERCEPTION GAP ON THAT LAST ITEM IN TERMS OF HOW RESPONSIVE THE STAFF ARE WHEN STUDENTS REPORT BULLYING AND WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE INDIVIDUAL RESPONSES, FOR EXAMPLE, THAT 30% OF THE PARTICIPATING PARENTS AND GUARDIANS SAID THAT THEY DON'T KNOW.

AND 23% OF THE STUDENTS.

SO THEY DON'T KNOW. AND THERE WERE SOME ADDITIONAL SAFETY QUESTIONS THAT WERE ASKED OF JUST THE STUDENTS AND THE STAFF.

AROUND STAFF SAFETY AND SECURITY PROCEDURES, DISCIPLINE, ENFORCEMENT AND THEN STAFF AND STUDENT RESPECT.

AS YOU CAN SEE, AGAIN, YOU'LL TYPICALLY SEE STAFF MEMBERS RESPOND MORE FAVORABLY THAN THAN STUDENTS.

[00:25:07]

SO IF WE NEED TO GO BACK AND REVISIT ANY OF THESE SLIDES, WE CAN CERTAINLY DO THAT.

I KNOW I'M GOING THROUGH THEM KIND OF FAST.

I JUST I'LL LEAVE THIS UP FOR A MOMENT.

THIS IS THE ELEMENTARY STUDENT SAFETY QUESTION.

SO THEY WERE ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT KNOWING THEIR SAFETY.

IT'S VERY SIMILAR QUESTIONS TO THE SECONDARY STUDENTS, BUT FAILING SAFE.

77% OF STUDENTS GRADE FOUR AND FIVE SAY THAT THEY FELT SAFE.

81% SAID THAT ADULTS IN THEIR SCHOOL TREAT THEM WITH RESPECT OR TREAT STUDENTS WITH RESPECT.

IN REVERSE, IF STUDENTS TREAT OTHER STUDENTS KINDLY, ONLY 28% SAID YES, WHICH IS A PRETTY SIMILAR TREND WHEN WE GO TO THE.

THE SECONDARY.

SORRY. YOU CAN LOOK AT THE SECONDARY STUDENTS AS WELL.

YOU KNOW, THEY RESPONDED HIGHER THAT STAFF TREAT THEM WITH RESPECT.

AND THEN WHEN ASKED IF STUDENTS TREAT STAFF MEMBERS WITH RESPECT, FEWER RESPONDED WITH AGREEMENT THERE.

RIGHT. THEN THERE WERE SOME CULTURE AND ENVIRONMENT QUESTIONS ADDED.

THESE WERE ALSO UNIQUE TO FRISCO.

SO THESE ARE NOT PART OF OUR BENCHMARK.

BUT 87% OF THE PARTICIPATING PARENTS AND GUARDIANS AND 80% OF SECONDARY STUDENTS AGREED THAT THEIR TEACHERS AND STAFF CREATE A WELCOMING ENVIRONMENT. THAT'S THAT SECOND ITEM THERE.

AND 96% OF THE STAFF ALSO AGREE WITH THAT STATEMENT OR THAT ITEM.

UM, YOU'LL SEE THAT FEWER PARTICIPATING PARENTS AND STUDENTS AGREE THAT STAFF MEMBERS TAKE TIME TO LEARN ABOUT THEIR BACKGROUNDS.

THAT'S THE QUESTION RIGHT BELOW IT IN THE MIDDLE.

LEAVE THAT THERE FOR A MOMENT.

THEN AGAIN, YOU'LL SEE SOME HIGHER [INAUDIBLE] RESPONSES HERE FROM THE PARENTS.

AND THE STAFF MEMBERS HAD SOME ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS ABOUT THE CULTURE AND ENVIRONMENT.

SO, FOR EXAMPLE, THAT TOP ITEM ABOUT THE MASTER SCHEDULE, YOU KNOW, HAVING RESOURCES AND SUPPORT SO YOU CAN.

TO BE THAT FREE FOR YOU TO TAKE A LOOK AT, SINCE THAT'S NOT PART OF THE COMPARISON.

BUT THESE ARE QUESTIONS AROUND JUST CAMPUS COMMUNICATION, DAILY WORK, COLLABORATION ACROSS TEAMS, ETCETERA.

ALL RIGHT, THE FUTURE READY LEARNER QUESTIONS.

THERE'S THE COMPARISON SLIDES TAKE UP TWO SLIDES.

GENERALLY, AMONG ALL OF THESE, THE FAVORABILITY IS REALLY HIGH, MEANING THEY'RE REALLY HIGH RESPONSES OF STRONGLY AGREE OR AGREE ACROSS ALL OF THE PARTICIPANT GROUPS.

IN THE SECOND SLIDE, YOU CAN, YOU KNOW, USING TECHNOLOGY AS A TOOL, I BELIEVE IS THE THAT'S THE HIGHEST ONE FOR EACH OF THE GROUPS.

SO JUST THAT STUDENTS ARE CHALLENGED AND SUPPORTED IN THEIR ABILITY TO TO USE TECHNOLOGY.

ALSO SHOW COMPASSION TOWARDS OTHERS IS HIGH AT ALL OF THEM ARE HIGH IN THIS CATEGORY.

AND IF YOU NEED TO AGAIN YOU CAN TAKE A LOOK AT THE INDIVIDUAL RESPONSES, YOU'LL SEE THAT SOME SLIGHTLY HIGHER DON'T KNOW PERCENTAGES FOR THE PARENTS HERE.

AND THEN. A LITTLE BIT HIGHER ON THE STUDENTS, STUDENTS AND SECONDARY STUDENTS, I SHOULD SAY, AND PARENTS AND GUARDIANS WERE ASKED.

HOW HOW SUPPORTED THEY ARE IN THEIR ABILITY TO CREATE A WORK LIFE BALANCE.

AND THIS WAS ONLY ASKED OF PARENTS THAT HAVE HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS AND ONLY.

HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS AS WELL ANSWERED.

SO YOU'RE LOOKING AT, YOU KNOW, STUDENT.

IT SAYS STUDENT SIX, GRADE 6 TO 12 BECAUSE THAT'S THE LABEL THROUGHOUT THE REPORT.

BUT IN THE NOTE IT INDICATES WE'RE JUST LOOKING AT HIGH SCHOOL PARENTS AND HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS THERE.

SO YOU CAN SEE THAT, YOU KNOW, PARENTS HAD HIRE AGREEMENT THERE THAT THEIR STUDENTS HAVE A SCHOOL LIFE BALANCE OR THAT THEY'RE SUPPORTED IN CREATING A SCHOOL LIFE BALANCE. FOR EACH PARTICIPANT GROUP.

[00:30:03]

SO, YOU KNOW, WHEN WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING THROUGH THIS REPORT THERE, I JUST WENT THROUGH A LOT OF INFORMATION AND SOMETIMES IT CAN FEEL VERY OVERWHELMING. SO THESE HIGHEST AND LOWEST CHARTS, I THINK ARE REALLY HELPFUL TO MAYBE NARROW FOCUS ON WHAT YOU WHAT YOU'RE SEEING HERE IS THE GREEN BOX.

SO THOSE ARE THE TOP FIVE ITEMS OR THE FIVE ITEMS THAT HAD THE HIGHEST AGREE OR STRONGLY AGREE RESPONSES.

SO IT'S THE TOP FIVE.

AND THEN YOU'LL BE ABLE TO SEE THE ACTUAL SURVEY TOPIC ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE.

AND THEN BELOW IT IN YELLOW.

THESE ARE THE FIVE ITEMS THAT HAD THE HIGHEST STRONGLY DISAGREE OR DISAGREE RESPONSES.

AND ALSO AGAIN, YOU CAN SEE THAT THAT SURVEY TOPIC.

SO HIGHEST ITEMS FOR FOR PARENTS CAME OUT OF SAFETY AND BEHAVIOR AND FUTURE READY LEARNER ITEMS AND FOR THEIR HIGHEST DISAGREEMENT ACADEMIC SUPPORT.

SO REALLY AROUND TEACHER FEEDBACK BEING ACADEMICALLY CHALLENGED AND THEN SOME ITEMS IN FAMILY INVOLVEMENT.

AND THIS YOU'LL HAVE SIMILAR SLIDES FOR EACH PARTICIPANT GROUP.

SO THIS IS THE CAMPUS BASED STAFF.

AND AGAIN, YOU'LL SEE THAT THE SURVEY TOPIC ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE.

SO THE GREEN IS THE TOP FIVE AND AGREEMENT AND THEN.

THE YELLOW IS THE HIGHEST DISAGREEMENT ITEM.

LET'S JUST LEAVE THAT THERE FOR A MOMENT.

FOR SECONDARY STUDENTS SIMILAR TO PARENTS.

SOME OF THOSE ITEMS FOR THE HIGHEST ARE PULLING FROM THE FUTURE.

BETTER FUTURE. READY LEARNER QUESTIONS AND SAFETY AND BEHAVIOR.

AND. IN TERMS OF THEIR LOWEST FROM ACADEMIC SUPPORT.

SO TEACHERS OFFERING ENGAGING LESSONS AND TEACHERS SUCCESSFULLY SHOWING HOW LESSONS RELATE TO OUTSIDE OF SCHOOL HAD THE HIGHEST DISAGREEMENT AND LOOKING FORWARD TO SCHOOL EACH DAY, WHICH IS THE EMOTIONAL AND SOCIAL SUPPORT DIMENSION.

AND THEN WITHIN SAFETY AND BEHAVIOR DISCIPLINE BEING ENFORCED FAIRLY FOR ALL STUDENTS AND STUDENTS TREATING STAFF MEMBERS WITH RESPECT.

FOR THE ELEMENTARY STUDENTS, YOU'LL SEE THE.

SO THIS IS INSTEAD OF.

AGREE OR STRONGLY DISAGREE, YOU'RE LOOKING AT THEIR PERCENTAGE.

YES. SO IT'S THE TOP FIVE ITEMS THAT HAD THE HIGHEST PERCENTAGE OF.

YES. AND THEN FOR THE YELLOW, THE HIGHEST THE ITEMS WITH THE HIGHEST PERCENTAGES OF NO.

SO FOR THE YESES THAT PULLS FROM STUDENT SAFETY.

SO KNOWING THEIR SECURITY DRILLS, FEELING SAFE IN SCHOOL, BEING TREATED WITH RESPECT AND.

AND THEN ALSO FROM ACADEMIC SUPPORT, HAVING TEACHERS THAT EXPECT THEM TO DO THEIR BEST.

AND THEN SIMILAR TO SECONDARY STUDENTS LOOKING FORWARD TO SCHOOL EACH DAY MADE ITS WAY INTO THE.

THE LOWEST RANKING ITEMS. AND THEN ALSO FROM SAFETY AND BEHAVIOR IN TERMS OF STUDENT BEHAVIORS TO HOW STUDENTS, KIDS BEING KIND TO EACH OTHER AND THEN FACING CONSEQUENCES IF THEY'RE BULLIED.

RIGHT. SO THE LAST HALF IS THE DISTRICT FOCUS QUESTIONS.

SO. THIS PARTICULAR QUESTION WAS NOT ASKED OF STUDENTS, BUT IT JUST ASKED PARENTS AND GUARDIANS AND STAFF HOW THEY WOULD RATE THE OVERALL QUALITY OF EDUCATION AT FRISCO ISD AS A WHOLE.

SO YOU'LL SEE THAT.

93% OF THE STAFF EITHER SAID EXCELLENT OR GOOD, AND 89% OF THE PARENTS OR GUARDIANS SAID EXCELLENT OR GOOD.

THERE ARE SOME ADDITIONAL STAFF FEEDBACK QUESTIONS FOR PARENTS.

THIS WAS ONLY PARENTS THAT WERE ASKED THIS QUESTION ABOUT RECRUITING HIGH QUALITY TEACHERS AND FRISCO RETAINING HIGH QUALITY TEACHERS.

SO YOU CAN SEE THE RESPONSES IN THERE.

THERE'S. WE'LL HIRE, I DON'T KNOW PERCENTAGE OR DON'T KNOW RESPONSES ON THAT, THAT SECOND ITEM.

AND STAFF MEMBERS.

SO THIS IS THE IF YOU ARE A NON CAMPUS STAFF, THIS IS WHERE THEY STARTED THE SURVEY.

SO THIS IS QUESTIONS AROUND EMPLOYEE EXPERIENCE.

[00:35:05]

UM, THE THESE ARE AROUND OPPORTUNITIES FOR PROFESSIONAL GROWTH.

UM. BEING SUPPORTED IN EMPLOYEE WELLNESS.

BEING RECOGNIZED.

FEEDBACK AND RECOGNITION AND LEADERSHIP AND ALSO ENJOYING BEING PART OF FRISCO HAD THAT LAST ITEM HAD VERY HIGH AGREEMENT FROM STAFF.

AND THEN THERE WERE SOME QUESTIONS AROUND COMMUNICATION.

SO THIS ONE WAS THIS IS JUST A STAFF MEMBER QUESTION.

SO HOW THEY RECEIVE IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENTS FROM THE DISTRICT? EMAIL IS THE HIGHEST.

IN TERMS OF COMMUNICATION FREQUENCY, HOW OFTEN THEY ENGAGE WITH DISTRICT NEWSLETTER AND UTILIZE THE RESOURCE CENTER.

SO YOU CAN SEE THAT WEEKLY.

THEY ENGAGE WITH THE NEWSLETTER WEEKLY AND LESS FREQUENTLY FOR THE RESOURCE CENTER.

PARENTS AND GUARDIANS AND ALL STAFF WERE ASKED THE SAME THING.

IF YOU HAD A FAMILY MEMBER MOVING TO THE DISTRICT, HOW LIKELY ARE YOU TO RECOMMEND THE DISTRICT AS A WHOLE SO SIMILAR TO RECOMMENDING THEIR SCHOOL EARLIER? THIS IS JUST THE DISTRICT AS A WHOLE, SO YOU'LL SEE THAT 54% OF THE PARENTS EITHER GAVE A NINE OR A TEN.

SAME THING WITH THE STAFF.

AND TO GET THAT NET PROMOTER SCORE, IT'S THE PROMOTERS IN GREEN MINUS THE DETRACTORS.

SO YOU'LL SEE THAT PARENTS HAD A NET PROMOTER SCORE OF 35.

AND COMPARED TO OUR NATIONAL AVERAGE, THAT'S THE NATIONAL AVERAGE FOR PARENTS IS 21.

SO FRISCO IS HIGHER THAN THE NATIONAL AVERAGE THERE.

AND ALSO FOR STAFF, THE NATIONAL AVERAGE FOR STAFF IS TWO.

AND IT'S 37 FOR STAFF AT FRISCO.

SO. IN TERMS OF OVERALL QUALITY AND THE NET PROMOTER SCORE IS.

HIGHER. SIMILAR TO THE SCHOOL QUESTIONS THEY HAD.

FOLLOW UP ON WHAT ASPECTS OF FRISCO 60.

HAD AN IMPACT ON YOUR SCORE IN THE SAME SAME AS EARLIER.

IT'S FROM A VERY POSITIVE IMPACT, A VERY NEGATIVE IMPACT.

SO THIS JUST ALLOWS YOU TO SEE WHAT AREAS MOST POSITIVELY IMPACT THAT THAT SCORE OF 0 TO 10 IN THE PREVIOUS QUESTION.

SO AT THE ACADEMIC SUPPORT WAS THE HIGHEST FOR FOR BOTH GROUPS.

AND THEN, OF COURSE, THE INDIVIDUAL RESPONSES.

AND THEN THE END GETS INTO THE PARTICIPANT DEMOGRAPHICS.

AND WITH THAT.

I JUST TALKED A LOT OF DATA TO YOU, SO I WILL OPEN IT UP AND ALLOW YOU TO ASK QUESTIONS THAT YOU HAVE. AND WHILE YOU DO THAT, I'M GOING TO COME OUT OF NAVIGATION MODE.

THAT WAY, SORRY, OUT OF PRESENTATION MODE, IN CASE I NEED TO GO BACK TO SLIDE.

IT'LL BE A LITTLE BIT EASIER.

BOARD WILL OPEN UP FOR QUESTIONS.

I JUST HAD A QUESTION.

IF YOU COULD GO TO SLIDE 13 OR ANYONE THAT SHOWS THAT PARTICIPATION GAP OR THE PERCEPTION GAP, I MEAN, THAT YOU MENTIONED.

IT WAS A LITTLE.

DID YOU SAY PARTICIPATION? PERCEPTION? OH, LIKE A PERCEPTION GAP? YES. I WROTE DOWN SLIDE 13 AND 23 AS YOU WERE GOING THROUGH IT.

SO EITHER ONE OF THOSE WOULD PROBABLY DO IT.

OKAY. SO MY QUESTION IS, IS AS YOU LOOK AT THIS DATA, IS THERE ANY GAP OR ANY THRESHOLD FOR A GAP THAT WOULD CAUSE YOU AS AN EXPERT IN DOING THESE KINDS OF SURVEYS, CONCERN LIKE WHERE IS THAT DELTA OR WHERE IS THAT THRESHOLD WHERE YOU SAY, OKAY, THIS PERCEPTION GAP IS SOMETHING THAT WE OR THAT YOU WOULD RECOMMEND THAT WE REALLY LOOK AT.

AND BEFORE YOU ANSWER, I REALIZE IT'S KIND OF A PROBLEMATIC QUESTION BECAUSE IT'S ALL BASED ON PARTICIPATION.

SO IF WE HAD HAD, YOU KNOW, 3800 OF OUR STAFF PARTICIPATE INSTEAD OF THE 3172 SHOWING ON THE SLIDE, RIGHT, YOU'D HAVE A DIFFERENT OUTCOME. SO I REALIZE THAT IT'S NOT THAT SIMPLE OF A QUESTION, BUT I WAS JUST WONDERING IF THERE IS A PARTICULAR GAP WHERE IT'S SORT OF MAYBE LEADS TO SOME TYPE OF RED FLAG. WELL AS DR.

AND I POINTED OUT EARLIER, TOO, THIS IS A BASELINE YEAR.

SO I MEAN, WE DO HAVE BENCHMARK DATA THAT WE CAN COMPARE IT TO.

AND WHEN WE LOOK AT FRISCO ISD'S RESPONSES OR FEEDBACK COMPARED TO LAST YEAR'S BENCHMARK, FRISCO ISD IS DEFINITELY HIGHER THAN THE NATIONAL AVERAGE ACROSS VERY POSITIVE FEEDBACK.

[00:40:01]

AS I MENTIONED EARLY ON, YOU TEND TO SEE STAFF RESPOND THE MOST FAVORABLY ON A SURVEY, THEN PARENTS AND PARENTS AND GUARDIANS AND THEN STUDENTS.

SO WHERE I WOULDN'T SAY RED FLAG, BUT WHEN SOMETHING STICKS OUT IS WHEN, YOU KNOW, WE SEE BIGGER GAPS BETWEEN AGREEMENTS.

SO THIS PARTICULAR, YOU KNOW.

LESSONS RELATING TO LIFE OUTSIDE OF SCHOOL.

NOW, CONTEXT PURPOSES, THAT TENDS TO BE LOWER NATIONALLY AS WELL.

FRISCO ISD DOES NOT STAND OUT THERE IN THAT SENSE.

I THINK THERE TENDS TO BE PERCEPTION GAPS ACROSS THE BOARD IN TERMS OF STAFF THINKING THEY'RE TELLING THEIR STUDENTS HOW LESSONS RELATE TO OUTSIDE OF SCHOOL VERSUS HOW STUDENTS ARE RECEIVING THAT.

AND THEN A LOT OF TIMES YOU'LL SEE JUST PARENTS MAYBE DON'T KNOW.

SO WHEN WE'RE GOING THROUGH THAT, YOU KNOW, WHEN I'M LOOKING AT THESE REPORTS, THAT'S USUALLY WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR IS LIKE, WHERE DO I SEE BIGGER GAPS BETWEEN AGREEMENT AND THEN WHEN, YOU KNOW, MAYBE FOR EXAMPLE, THIS THE FIRST TWO ITEMS YOU SEE THE STUDENT SLIGHTLY HIGHER THAN PARENTS.

IT'S 1%.

THAT'S A YOU KNOW, NOT A BIG DIFFERENCE.

BUT, YOU KNOW, IF YOU SEE SOMETIMES WHERE STUDENTS ARE RESPONDING MUCH MORE FAVORABLY THAN PARENTS, THAT USUALLY MIGHT STICK OUT AS WELL.

I'M NOT SURE IF THAT ANSWERS YOUR QUESTION.

I THINK SO. AND I THINK TO YOUR POINT, DEPENDING ON THE QUESTION, LIKE WHEN I LOOK AT TEACHERS SUCCESSFULLY SHOWING MY CHILD HOW LESSONS RELATE TO LIFE OUTSIDE OF SCHOOL, I WOULD EXPECT A PRETTY BIG PERCEPTION GAP ON THAT QUESTION.

BUT IF THAT GAP AND I'M JUST MORE FOCUSED ON BETWEEN THE PARENTS AND THE STAFF THAN THE STUDENTS, BECAUSE I THINK A LOT OF DIFFERENT FACTORS CAN AFFECT THAT.

AND YOU'RE ALSO COMBINING THE THE ELEMENTARY WITH THE SECONDARY HERE OR NO, THIS IS JUST SIX THROUGH 12.

SORRY. BUT CERTAIN QUESTIONS, IT COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE US TO TAKE A LOOK AND SAY, OH, WELL, THIS IS AN AREA LIKE MAYBE IF IT WAS AROUND COMMUNICATION OR PERCEPTION OF SECURITY AND SAFETY OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT WHERE IT MIGHT SAY, HEY, THIS MIGHT BE AN AREA WHERE YOU WOULD WANT TO DO SOME WORK AROUND COMMUNICATING.

IN A DIFFERENT WAY OR MORE FREQUENTLY OR WHATEVER, TO THE PARENTS OR TO THE STAFF, DEPENDING ON WHAT THAT DIFFERENCE WAS.

EXACTLY. AND THEN I THINK WITH THAT, THAT'S WE'RE LOOKING AT THOSE INDIVIDUAL RESPONSES CAN BE HELPFUL BECAUSE FOR EXAMPLE ON PARENTS THAT'S REALLY HIGH FOR DON'T KNOW AND WHERE STUDENTS IT WAS HIGHER DISAGREEMENT.

SO IS THAT AN AREA FOR MAYBE COMMUNICATING A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENTLY DO YOU HAVE TO INVESTIGATE AND NOT INVESTIGATE BUT JUST EXPLORE A LITTLE FURTHER INTO WHY THERE MIGHT BE A PERCEPTION DIFFERENCE, BUT I THINK THAT THE WAY THAT YOU JUST SAW IT KIND OF HITS IT RIGHT ON THE DOT.

AND ALSO SORT OF RELATED.

OH, GO AHEAD. NO, THAT'S OKAY.

GO AHEAD. I WAS JUST GOING TO SAY, WHEN I WAS THERE TWO WEEKS AGO, I WORKED WITH, I BELIEVE ALL OF THE SCHOOLS ATTENDED, HAD THEIR ADMINISTRATIVE TEAMS COME AND THEY EACH LOOKED AT THEIR OWN SCHOOL LEVEL DATA.

SO THEIR REPORTS LOOKED PRETTY SIMILAR TO THIS ONE, BUT IT WAS JUST THEIR SCHOOL, SO THEY WERE JUST LOOKING AT PARENTS FROM THEIR SCHOOL STAFF AND STUDENTS FROM THEIR SCHOOL.

AND I KNOW ON ACADEMIC SUPPORT, FOR EXAMPLE, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT STOOD OUT TO SOME OF THE ADMINISTRATORS WAS THE PERCEPTION DIFFERENCES BETWEEN TEACHER FEEDBACK AND THEY WERE JUST DISCUSSING IF THERE WERE WAYS TO MAYBE, YOU KNOW, BRIDGE THAT GAP A LITTLE BIT.

SO I THINK THAT, YOU KNOW, DIFFERENT THINGS ARE GOING TO STICK OUT TO, YOU KNOW, DIFFERENT SCHOOLS IN TERMS OF WHAT THEIR GOALS ARE. OKAY.

THANK YOU. LAST QUESTION.

YOUR SLIDE TOWARDS THE END THAT HAD KIND OF THE HIGHEST RANKING ITEMS AND THE LOWEST RANKING ITEMS. I DON'T REMEMBER WHICH SLIDE THAT WAS.

BUT THERE I DON'T I DON'T REALLY HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT THAT SLIDE.

BUT I WAS JUST WONDERING THAT'S BY THE WAY, THIS FORMAT IS VERY HELPFUL AND VERY EASY TO READ AND FOLLOW.

SO I APPRECIATE THAT.

MY QUESTION IS, IS AS PART OF THE WORK THAT YOU DO NOT YET, BUT GOING FORWARD TO PROVIDE ANY KIND OF RECOMMENDATIONS OF MAYBE NOT EVEN NECESSARILY OUTCOMES OR ACTION PLANNING, BUT JUST AREAS TO LOOK MAYBE A SPECIFIC CAMPUS, RIGHT.

[00:45:01]

SO WHEN WE WENT THROUGH THE T PRINCIPAL WORKSHOPS THEY WERE ENCOURAGED TO FOCUS ON AREAS THAT WERE MEANINGFUL TO THEM AND THEIR SCHOOL.

THAT WAY THEY HAVE MORE OWNERSHIP OF IT.

EVERY SCHOOL HAS DIFFERENT GOALS AND DIFFERENT COMMUNITY, DIFFERENT STUDENTS THAT THEY'RE WORKING ON.

AND SO WHAT WE ONE THING THAT THEY DID REQUEST AT THAT MEETING OR AT THOSE WORKSHOPS WERE SO THIS REPORT THAT YOU LOOKED AT, THIS IS ALL YOU KNOW, ALL PARENTS, ALL STAFF, ALL STUDENTS ACROSS THE DISTRICT.

AND SO IT'S GOT ELEMENTARY PARENTS, ELEMENTARY STAFF, ETCETERA.

AND IF I'M A MIDDLE SCHOOL PRINCIPAL.

THE DATA MIGHT BE SKEWED A LITTLE BIT OVERALL WITH HAVING ELEMENTARY DATA.

SO THEY REQUESTED TO HAVE REPORTS LIKE THIS EXCEPT BROKEN OUT BY SCHOOL LEVEL.

SO THAT'S I THINK THAT NOT I THINK BUT THAT'S THE A HELPFUL WAY FOR SCHOOLS TO SEE HOW THEY COMPARE.

SO IF I'M A MIDDLE SCHOOL, HOW DO I COMPARE TO OTHER MIDDLE SCHOOLS IN FRISCO ISD AND THAT'S GOING TO BE THE MOST MEANINGFUL VERSUS, YOU KNOW, WE DO HAVE THE NATIONAL BENCHMARK DATA JUST TO GIVE A KIND OF A TOUCH POINT OF WHERE YOU ARE, BUT THAT'S WHERE A LOT OF THE WORK IS GOING TO COME FROM, IS REALLY SCHOOL BY SCHOOL AND WITHIN FRISCO ISD.

BOARD ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS? OKAY. THANK YOU, DR.

FRIESE. YEAH, JUST REAL QUICK.

WELL, BRIEFLY, I THINK OVERALL, IT LOOKS VERY FAVORABLE.

CLEARLY, THERE ARE A COUPLE OF AREAS IN THERE THAT MIGHT PROVIDE OPPORTUNITIES FOR US TO DIVE INTO, BUT THE PRESENTATION IS VERY EASY TO DIGEST.

I APPRECIATE THAT. NICE TO MEET YOU, DR.

FRIESE. AND I THINK IT WILL BE PARTICULARLY HELPFUL WHEN WE HAVE COMPARISON DATA TO KIND OF SEE WHAT THE TRENDS LOOK LIKE BY CAMPUS AND AS A DISTRICT AS A WHOLE.

THANK YOU. YOU'RE WELCOME.

WELL, AGAIN, THE SCHOOL LEVEL REPORTS WILL BE COMING LATER THIS WEEK.

SO THAT THAT WILL HELP BREAK OUT THE DATA A LITTLE BIT MORE, AT LEAST ACROSS THE DISTRICT.

OKAY. THANK YOU SO MUCH, DR.

FRIESE. WE REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR PRESENTATION AND ALL THE INFORMATION THAT YOU'VE PROVIDED US.

I DO WANT TO ALSO THANK OUR LEADERSHIP TEAM, AMANDA, DR.

CUNNINGHAM AND DR.

NYE. I DO REALIZE PUTTING SOMETHING LIKE THIS TOGETHER AND BRINGING IT BEFORE THE BOARD, I KNOW THAT IT TOOK A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF WORK, AND I DO LOOK FORWARD TO NEXT STEPS.

[2. Communication to and from the Board including public comments]

AND WE DO NOT HAVE ANYONE SIGNED UP FOR PUBLIC COMMENT.

AND SO WE WILL MOVE ON TO ACTION ITEM THREE OR AGENDA ITEM THREE.

[3.A. Consider and act on 2023-2024 budget ]

BOARD I'LL OPEN THE FLOOR FOR QUESTIONS.

I DON'T HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, BUT I DID WANT TO JUST SAY TO KIM AND YOUR TEAM, DR.

FOUCHE, DR.

WALDRIP, I KNOW THAT THIS PROCESS EVERY YEAR IS TEDIOUS, IT'S LONG.

WE'RE DEALING WITH SETTING A BUDGET THAT WE WISH WE HAD CONTROL OF THE VARIABLES A BIT MORE THAN WE DO THIS YEAR.

SO WHILE I KNOW THAT IT IT'S PAINFUL TO HAVE TO ADOPT A BUDGET THAT IS AT A DEFICIT, I THINK THAT YOU ALL HAVE DONE AN INCREDIBLE JOB AT BEING CONSERVATIVE WITH AND GOOD STEWARDS OF THE DISTRICT'S FINANCES, ESPECIALLY WHEN WE ARE MONTHS AWAY FROM HAVING ANY KIND OF UNDERSTANDING AS TO HOW THE STATE WILL ACTUALLY PARTICIPATE IN PUBLIC EDUCATION FOR THE YEAR AHEAD.

SO I KNOW THIS IS A YEAR LONG PROCESS AND IT HAS BEEN IT'S BEEN CHALLENGING FOR ALL OF US.

BUT KIM, THANK YOU.

AND TO YOUR TEAM.

I JUST CAN'T I CAN'T TELL YOU HOW THE BUDGET, THE WORKBOOK THAT YOU GUYS PUT TOGETHER EVERY YEAR I WENT THROUGH THE DIGITAL VERSION THAT YOU SENT AND IT IS CHOCK FULL OF REALLY GREAT INFORMATION.

SO I HOPE WHAT I WOULD LOVE FOR EVERYONE TO I DON'T KNOW THAT ANYONE'S WATCHING THIS MEETING, BUT FOR THOSE THAT GO BACK AND WATCH IT, IT'S IT'S A GREAT RESOURCE TO UNDERSTAND A BIT MORE OF A DEEP DIVE IN SCHOOL FINANCE AND WHAT WE'RE FACED WITH THIS YEAR.

SO I JUST WANTED TO SAY THANK YOU.

STEPHANIE, I DON'T HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.

[00:50:01]

FRISCO ISD HAD A HISTORY OF APPROVING BALANCED BUDGETS AND THAT CHANGED LAST YEAR FOR THE FIRST TIME.

I REMEMBER AT THAT TIME WORRYING THAT APPROVING A DEFICIT BUDGET WOULD PERHAPS SHIFT THE OVERTON WINDOW ON THIS MATTER TO THE POINT WHERE DOING SO WOULD BECOME NORMALIZED. AND IT NOW APPEARS THAT THAT HAS COME TO FRUITION FOR US.

AS I HAVE MENTIONED COUNTLESS TIMES DURING MY TENURE AS A TRUSTEE, I'M CONCERNED ABOUT STAFF RETENTION.

THIS DISTRICT HAS PRIDED ITSELF ON PAYING A HIGHER WAGE THAN SURROUNDING DISTRICTS.

OTHERS ARE NOW WORKING TO CATCH UP TO US.

AT LEAST ONE NEIGHBORING DISTRICT THAT I'M AWARE OF IS PROPOSING A LARGER SALARY INCREASE FOR TEACHERS THAN WE ARE.

I'M TROUBLED THAT FOR MANY OF OUR STAFF, THE PROPOSED INCREASE, WHICH I AM VERY APPRECIATIVE OF, DON'T GET ME WRONG, BUT THAT IT WILL NOT BE FELT IN A MEANINGFUL WAY AFTER TAXES AND AFTER THE INCREASE IN THE HEALTH INSURANCE PREMIUMS, THE NET INCREASE IN TAKE HOME PAY MAY COVER THE COST OF ONE TANK OF GAS EACH MONTH.

I REVIEWED LAST YEAR'S BUDGET WORKSHOP THIS PAST WEEKEND, AND I WAS REMINDED THAT I ASKED ABOUT THE COST OF TEACHER TRAINING LAST YEAR.

THIS YEAR I ASKED A SIMILAR QUESTION ABOUT STAFF AND TEACHER PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT.

THE ANSWER THAT I RECEIVED IN EACH INSTANCE WAS THAT THIS INFORMATION ISN'T AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME, ALTHOUGH I UNDERSTAND THE ANSWER THAT I'VE BEEN GIVEN, I HAVE A VERY DIFFICULT TIME ACCEPTING IT.

THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT BUDGET CATEGORY.

THE PROPOSED BUDGET IS $16.3 MILLION FOR CURRICULUM AND STAFF DEVELOPMENT, AND THIS IS UP OVER $250,000 FROM LAST YEAR.

THERE ARE COUNTLESS LINE ITEMS THAT ADD UP TO THAT TOTAL.

SO THIS INFORMATION HAS TO EXIST SOMEWHERE.

MY LARGER CONCERN IN THIS REGARD IS THAT THE COMMUNITY DOESN'T HAVE THIS DATA.

I THINK THE CITIZENS DESERVE TO KNOW THIS INFORMATION SO THAT THEY CAN JUDGE WHETHER THIS DISTRICT IS BEING MANAGED IN A FISCALLY RESPONSIBLE WAY.

ON A BROADER SCALE, I DON'T KNOW HOW THIS BOARD CAN BE EXPECTED TO APPROVE A BUDGET, ESPECIALLY A DEFICIT BUDGET, WHEN THIS TYPE OF INFORMATION ISN'T READILY AVAILABLE.

I HAVE HEARD MANY COMMENTS AS OF LATE ABOUT THE FAILURE OF THE STATE LEGISLATURE TO PASS A BILL GRANTING INCREASED FUNDING TO OUR SCHOOLS.

HOPEFULLY THERE WILL BE ADDITIONAL MONIES APPROVED DURING A SPECIAL SESSION IN THE SUMMER, BUT WE CAN'T COUNT ON THIS.

IF THIS WERE NOT A LEGISLATIVE YEAR, WE WOULD STILL HAVE THE SAME FACTORS AND CHALLENGES GUIDING OUR BUDGET BUDGETING PROCESS.

BECAUSE THIS PROPOSED BUDGET ISN'T BALANCED, BECAUSE THE STAFF SALARY INCREASE ISN'T LARGE ENOUGH, IN MY OPINION, AND BECAUSE I DON'T FEEL THAT I HAVE ENOUGH INFORMATION REGARDING KEY BUDGET CATEGORIES TO MAKE AN INFORMED DECISION, I FEEL THAT I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO VOTE NO ON THIS BUDGET.

THIS DECISION WASN'T MADE LIGHTLY, BUT IT IS MADE WITH CONVICTION.

I THINK WE CAN AND MUST DO BETTER.

THANK YOU. BOARD.

ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS? NOT MAKE A FEW COMMENTS.

IN YEARS PAST.

AND A LOT OF THIS IS IN RESPONSE TO YOUR COMMENTS.

MS.. ELLEN, IN YEARS PAST, THE BUDGET THAT THIS BOARD HAS ADOPTED HAS BEEN CONSERVATIVE.

VERY CONSERVATIVE TO THE POINT WHERE.

WE HAVE BUILT UP A RAINY DAY FUND THAT HAS GIVEN US THE OPPORTUNITY TO.

HAVE SOME RUNWAY FOR YEARS LIKE WE ARE EXPERIENCING THIS YEAR.

YEARS LIKE LAST YEAR.

CLEARLY, IT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT WE CAN DO EACH AND EVERY YEAR.

BUT BECAUSE OF THAT CONSERVATIVE WORK IN YEARS LEADING UP TO THIS ONE, IT DOES BUY US SOME TIME TO DO RIGHT BY OUR STAFF AS BEST WE CAN WHILE WE WAIT FOR WHAT IS A VERY CONVOLUTED PROCESS IN AUSTIN.

AND HOPEFULLY WE GET SOME RELIEF IN SEPTEMBER AND THEN WE CAN COME BACK AND WE CAN AMEND THE BUDGET.

I STAND READY TO AMEND IT AT ANY TIME THAT OUR STAFF THINKS WE CAN DO SOMETHING SUSTAINABLY TO GIVE OUR TEACHERS A GREATER PAY, RAISE OUR SUPPORT STAFF AN ADDITIONAL PAY RAISE. I THINK IT'S WORTH GOING BACK AND REFERRING TO MISS SMITH'S PRESENTATIONS FROM EARLIER, WHERE SHE DID A GOOD JOB, IN MY OPINION, OF LAYING OUT THAT WE'VE DONE SOME GOOD WORK WITH STAFF RAISES.

I FULLY UNDERSTAND THE WHAT HAVE YOU DONE FOR ME LATELY, BUT OTHER DISTRICTS ARE PLAYING CATCH UP WITH US RIGHT NOW.

AND WHILE IT MAY BE A BIT PAINFUL, IF THEY DO CATCH UP TO US AND WE'RE ON A MORE LEVEL PLAYING FIELD, THAT DOES ALSO BUY US A LITTLE BIT OF TIME WHILE WE WAIT FOR THE LEGISLATURE. SO I DON'T WANT THE PUBLIC TO THINK THAT STAFF PAY CONCERNS ARE FALLING ON DEAF EARS OR THAT BUDGET DEFICITS WILL BECOME THE PERMANENT NORM.

A LOT OF WORK HAS BEEN LAID GETTING US TO THIS POINT THAT GIVE US THAT FLEXIBILITY.

AND YEAH, WE'RE USING IT NOW AND WE WON'T BE ABLE TO DO IT FOREVER, BUT AT LEAST WE HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY NOW TO DO IT.

YOU NOTED THE CURRICULUM BUDGET.

I WANTED TO MAKE SURE THE PUBLIC DOESN'T THINK THAT $16 MILLION GOES TO STAFF DEVELOPMENT.

[00:55:04]

SO I WILL SUPPORT THIS BUDGET.

I APPRECIATE THE HARD WORK OF STAFF, BUT I WILL STAND READY SHOULD WE GET THE OPPORTUNITY TO COME BACK AND AMEND IT AND DO SOMETHING MORE FOR STAFF LATER.

BOARD. ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS? I'LL MAKE A FEW BRIEF ONES.

ALTHOUGH I'M NEW TO THE BOARD, I'M NOT A FAN OF DEFICIT BUDGETS.

I'M CERTAINLY NOT NORMALIZING A DEFICIT BUDGET IN SUPPORTING THE BUDGET THIS YEAR.

I THINK WE ALL AS A BOARD SHOULD BE CRITICAL OF A DEFICIT BUDGET.

HOWEVER, I DO AGREE WITH MS. ELAD THAT WE NEED TOOLS TO IDENTIFY AND UNDERSTAND AND GIVE A CRITICAL EYE TO WHERE WE CAN BE SMARTER ABOUT THE BUDGET IN THE YEARS TO COME. AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT THOSE TOOLS ARE.

ALTHOUGH MS. SMITH MENTIONED THAT THERE ARE SOME COMING IN THE FALL AND AND I DO LOOK FORWARD TO THAT BECAUSE I THINK THAT WILL BE NEEDED.

IT'S NOT LOST ON ME THAT THE LEGISLATIVE FUNDING TO THE EXTENT ANY COMES, AND I SUSPECT IT WILL EVENTUALLY OR HOPEFULLY I THINK IT WILL, IT THAT STILL PROBABLY WOULDN'T SOLVE OUR DEFICIT PROBLEM.

AND SO WE AS A BOARD NEED TO UNDERSTAND THAT AND THEN BE SMART ABOUT IT.

I TOO WOULD LOVE TO SUPPORT RAISES MUCH GREATER THAN THEY ARE.

ALTHOUGH I DON'T.

IT'S HARD FOR ME TO RECONCILE THAT WHILE WHILE STILL MAINTAINING THE DEFICIT WITHOUT BRIDGING THAT IN SOME TYPE OF ARTICULATED WAY AND MS. ELAD I HAVE NOT HEARD WHAT THAT IS.

I DON'T WANT DEFICITS, BUT I WOULD LIKE TO GIVE A GREATER RAISE.

I KNOW OTHER DISTRICTS ARE GIVING GREATER RAISES OR THEY MAY BE I DON'T KNOW THE INTRICACIES OF HOW THEY'RE DOING THAT OR IF THAT'S SUSTAINABLE OR NOT SUSTAINABLE.

HOPEFULLY WITH THE NEW TOOLS AND WITH THE LEGISLATIVE SUPPORT WE CAN, TO MR. CLASSE'S POINT, ADDRESS THAT IN SOME TYPE OF AMENDMENT.

I THINK WITH CLOSING, I DO APPRECIATE, MS..

SMITH, YOUR EFFORTS AND PUTTING THIS BUDGET TOGETHER.

I THINK IT'S VERY THOUGHTFUL.

IT'S NOT EASY, ESPECIALLY WITH THE DISTRICT OF OUR SIZE.

AND I DO APPRECIATE THE INSIGHT YOU'VE PROVIDED.

THANK YOU. BOARD ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS? IF NOT, I WILL LOOK FOR A MOTION.

I MOVE TO APPROVE THE 2023-2024 BUDGET AS PRESENTED.

SECOND. MOTION GIVEN BY MS. ARCHAMBAULT, SECOND BY MR. CLASSE. ALL IN FAVOR? WAS THAT? FIVE.

ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR, SIX.

OKAY. SIX, SEVEN.

ALL OPPOSED. I'M SORRY.

SIX ONE VOTED IN FAVOR OF THE 2023-24 BUDGET.

[3.B. Consider and act on 2023-2024 compensation plan]

I'LL OPEN THE FLOOR FOR QUESTIONS.

BEFORE I DO THAT BOARD, I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE UNDERSTAND THAT WE HAD A HEARING FOR THE PUBLIC TO NOTE THAT WE DID HAVE A HEARING ON THE 12TH OF JUNE, AND MRS. SMITH GAVE US DETAILED INFORMATION ON BOTH THE BUDGET AND THE COMPENSATION PLAN.

AND SO IF THERE ARE ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS REGARDING THE BUDGET OR COMPENSATION PLAN, THAT HEARING CAN BE VIEWED AND NOTES ARE ALSO POSTED. SO WITH THAT, I WILL OPEN THE FLOOR FOR QUESTIONS.

ALL RIGHT. IF THERE ARE NO QUESTIONS, I WILL LOOK FOR A MOTION.

I MOVE TO APPROVE THE 2324 COMPENSATION PLAN AS PRESENTED.

MOTION BY MR. CLANCY, SECOND BY MR. PONANGI AND MR. LOWE. ALL IN FAVOR? ALL RIGHT. AND THAT IS SIX ZERO MOTION PASSES.

[3.C. Consider and act on year-end budget amendment for 2022-2023 budget]

SO BOARD THIS IS AN AMENDMENT THAT WE DO IN JUNE OF EVERY YEAR FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE NEWER TO THE BOARD.

OVER THE SUMMER BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE A REGULAR BOARD MEETING, WE NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE ENOUGH MONEY IN EACH FUNCTION WITHIN OUR OPERATING BUDGET TO ACCOUNT FOR ANY UNFORESEEN EXPENSES THAT COME THROUGH TO PAY OUTSTANDING PURCHASE ORDERS, ANY ADDITIONAL OVERTIME THAT WE NEED TO PAY OUT,

[01:00:10]

SO WHAT WE DO IS WE JUST WE GO THROUGH AND WE PROJECT OUT WHAT HOW MANY OR HOW MUCH WE'RE GOING TO HAVE EXPENDED IN EACH FUNCTION.

AND THEN WE SORT OF PAD THE BUDGET FOR THAT FUNCTION.

SO THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE SEEING HERE AS THE AMENDMENT THIS YEAR.

LIKE I MENTIONED WHEN I SENT THIS TO YOU ALL SEVERAL DAYS AGO THIS YEAR, BECAUSE WE SPENT SOME TIME TALKING ABOUT THE THE FACT THAT WE WILL HAVE A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF OUR BUDGET UNSPENT FOR THOSE VARIOUS REASONS THAT I TALKED ABOUT AT THE LAST REGULAR BOARD MEETING, I WENT AHEAD AND ADJUSTED THE WHOLE BUDGET DOWN BECAUSE I FELT LIKE FOR TRANSPARENCY SAKE, WE HAD TALKED ABOUT IT AND I WANTED THE FINAL AMENDMENT TO REFLECT THAT.

WE DON'T TYPICALLY ADJUST THE BUDGET DOWN.

WE USUALLY JUST LEAVE IT AS IT IS.

BUT I WANTED TO MAKE THAT A LITTLE BIT MORE TRANSPARENT.

SO THAT IS THE AMENDMENT.

WE MAY COME BACK AGAIN IN AUGUST AT YOUR REGULAR BOARD MEETING, DEPENDING ON ANY SUGGESTED JOURNAL ENTRIES OR ANYTHING THAT COME FROM OUR AUDITORS OR AS WE'RE CLOSING THE BOOKS AND AMEND IT AGAIN. BUT THIS IS OUR ATTEMPT TO GET THROUGH THE SUMMER WITHOUT GOING OVER BY FUNCTION.

HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.

BOARD ANY QUESTIONS AT THIS TIME.

IF NOT I'LL LOOK FOR A MOTION.

MOVE TO APPROVE THE BUDGET AMENDMENTS FOR THE 22-23 GENERAL FUND BUDGET AS PRESENTED.

MOTION MADE BY MR. CLASSE, SECOND BY MR. PONANGI. ALL IN FAVOR? AYE. ALL RIGHT.

AND I SHOULD NOTE THAT MRS. ARCHAMBAULT HAS LEFT THE MEETING.

AND SO THAT MOTION PASSED SIX ZERO.

[3.D. Consider and act on 2023-2024 District Priorities]

I'LL OPEN THE FLOOR FOR QUESTIONS.

IF THERE ARE NO QUESTIONS, I'LL LOOK FOR A MOTION.

OKAY NOT TURNED ON.

I MOVE TO APPROVE THE 2023-24 DISTRICT PRIORITIES AS STATED.

SECOND.

MOTION MADE BY MRS. ELAD, SECOND BY MR. HILL. ALL IN FAVOR? MOTION PASSES SIX ZERO.

STEPHANIE? I SAID STEPHANIE.

[3.E. Consider and act on the recommended selection of contractual personnel, including Managing Director of Human Resources]

BROOKS BACA.

I WILL LOOK FOR A MOTION IF THERE ARE NO QUESTIONS.

I MOVE TO APPROVE PERSONNEL RECOMMENDATIONS AS PRESENTED, INCLUDING BROOKS AS MANAGING DIRECTOR OF HUMAN RESOURCES.

MOTION MADE BY MR. CLASSE, SECOND BY MR. HILL. ALL IN FAVOR? AYE. MOTION PASSES SIX ZERO.

[3.F. Consent Agenda]

IF THERE ARE NO QUESTIONS, I WILL LOOK FOR A MOTION.

MOVE TO APPROVE THE CONSENT AGENDA.

MOTION MADE BY MR. CLASSE. SECOND BY MISS ELAD.

ALL IN FAVOR? MOTION PASSES SIX ZERO.

BOARD THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

THANK YOU LEADERSHIP TEAM FOR BEING HERE TODAY.

I WOULD LIKE TO ADJOURN THIS MEETING AT 3:06 P.M..
