B
Right
good
evening
today
is
Tuesday
April
18th
we'd
like
to
welcome
everyone
to
our
regular
school
board.
Meeting
I'd
like
to
do
a
roll
call,
really
quick
and
then
can
call
us
to
order
joining
us
online.
We
have
member
Dudley
in
the
boardroom.
We
have
members
Wilson
lessons,
Jacobs,
Holloman,
Higgins
and
Bellamy.
B
B
They
are
transitioning,
so
we
have
two
of
them
right
now,
it's
great!
So,
with
that
we'd
like
to
Michelle,
can
you
lead
us
into
The
Pledge,
please
or.
C
D
On
behalf
of
the
Anchorage
School
Board
I
want
to
take
a
moment
to
recognize
and
offer
gratitude
for
the
sacred
ancestral
lands
of
the
denina
people.
We
acknowledge
and
appreciate
that
our
offices,
facilities
and
schools
are
on
the
sacred
indigenous
lands
and
we
honor
the
traditional
care
that
has
been
given
to
this
land
throughout
Generations.
We
are
grateful
for
the
opportunity
to
grow,
learn,
work
and
create
educational
communities
on
the
sacred
land.
We
extend
continued
respect
for
the
many
cultures,
creativity
and
its
resilience
of
its
indigenous
peoples.
Chanon.
B
That
brings
us
to
our
opening
statement
and
again
we'd
like
to
welcome
everybody
to
our
meeting
and
thank
you
for
attending
and
supporting
the
work
of
the
Anchorage
School
Board.
The
board
would
like
also
thank
our
students,
parents,
teachers,
staffs
School
partners
and
the
entire
Community
for
your
investment
in
our
district.
With
your
time,
your
talents
and
your
of
course
tax
dollars
so
welcome.
B
Hearing
scene,
no
opposition.
Excuse
me,
the
minutes
are
approved
as
presented,
and
that
brings
us
to
Item
B
with
our
military
report.
F
Evening,
thank
you
for
those
of
you,
I
haven't
met,
who
haven't
met
me:
I'm,
Colonel,
Eric,
Dunn
I'm.
The
mission
support
group
Commander
at
Joint,
Base
Elmendorf
Richardson,
it's
nice
to
be
here
tonight,
just
just
a
couple
of
quick
things.
Today
we
hosted
26
high
school
middle
school
and
a
couple
of
principals
from
the
Career
and
Technical
education
from
a
few
of
the
schools
throughout
the
district
at
the
base
we
gave
them
a
pretty
good
base
tour.
F
Support
functions
to
you
know
our
morale,
welfare
and
Recreation
to
even
seeing
an
F-22
static,
display
and
and
some
of
the
mission
things
that
we
do
on
the
base
and-
and
it
was
a
really
good
tour
I-
we're
waiting
to
hear
some
feedback,
because
we
want
to
make
that
better
and
better
as
we
do
it
in
the
future.
F
But
but
I
think
it
was
a
good
experience
for
those
teachers
and
principals
to
see
not
just
what
you
see
on
TV
what
we
do
at
a
military
base,
but
all
the
ins
and
outs
of
what
we
do,
not
just
the
military
members
who
wear
the
uniform,
but
the
the
thousands
of
civilians
that
we
have
in
case
some
of
their
students
want,
want
a
place
to
work
and
and
be
a
part
of
of
the
base.
F
So
hopefully
that
that
has
a
positive
impact
and
if
anyone
gets
feedback,
please
pass
it
on
to
us,
but
we
definitely
enjoyed
having
them
out.
We
actually
went
and
visited
I
think
it
was
King
Tech
about
a
month
or
so
ago,
and
so
this
was
kind
of
reciprocating
backs
at
some
of
the
the
teachers
and
principals
could
see
the
base.
F
So
that
was
pretty
neat
and
then
this
is
month
of
the
military
child
for
April,
and
so
we
really
appreciate
the
the
schools
throughout
the
district
celebrating
with
us
we're
getting
lots
of
great
feedback
about
just
just
the
great
support
that
the
military
students
have
throughout
the
district
and
the
schools.
F
Everything
thing
from
simple
things:
like
a
pizza
party
to
special
assemblies
decorations
in
the
hallways
recognition
during
morning,
announcements-
we're
just
really
grateful
at
the
support
that
we
get
throughout
the
district
and
appreciate
it,
and
then
we've
added
just
some
some
good
interactions
with
some
of
our
military
units
with
the
schools
over
at
Ursa
Minor
on
on
Jay
bear
our
17th
combat
sustainment
support
Battalion
got
to
welcome
students
at
the
school.
F
We
we
try
to
do
that
every
now
and
then
and
then
also
the
11th
Airborne
Division
band
has
been
spreading
musical
cheer
throughout
some
of
the
schools.
In
the
district,
everything
from
the
Wind
Ensemble,
the
brass
quintet
and
in
the
rock
bands
they
really
enjoyed
visiting
the
schools
and
playing
for
them.
But
that's
that's
all
that
I
have
do
any
of
you
have
questions
for
me.
B
D
All
right,
so
we
had
our
last
meeting
of
the
school
year
on
April
11th
at
11
15.
In
the
morning
we
started
off
how
we
normally
do
with
our
call
to
order
adoption
of
agenda
and
minutes,
and
then
we
went
to
our
school
reports
where
we
heard
from
our
school
spotlights
we
overheard
from
Northern
Lights,
ABC,
Mirror,
Lake,
West,
AMCs,
Romig
and
Wendler,
and
then
I
gave
my
student.
Her
rep
report
remember
lessons
made
some
comments
and
then
we
had
a
little
report
from
our
advisors.
D
We
did
go
through
our
election
process
for
the
vice
president
secretary
and
public
relations
positions
where
Maggie
cothran
won.
Vice
president
Zoe
fensel
won
secretary
and
Bella
Gunda
Chavez
one
public
relations,
so
super
excited
to
have
them
on
the
board.
With
Josh.
Next
year
we
did
go
and
pass
a
a
resolution
brought
To
Us
by
diamond
called
the
2023
snow
days
in
suspensions
suspensions
resolution,
and
there
was
noted
opposition
to
that
vote.
D
Then
we
had
a
short
discussion
about
drills
and
just
that
kind
of
feedback
and
what
we
think
about
how
they
can
be
improved
and
what
we
think
is
good
about
them
and
then
close
off
our
meeting.
We
had
a
little
everyone
got
certificates
and
all
of
the
board
keyboard
got
little
plaques
as
all
of
our
board,
but
one
of
them
were
seniors.
So
I
did
that
and
then
there
is
the
awesome
conference
in
Skagway
on
April
28th
through
30th
and
then
our
next
meeting.
G
E
Thank
you,
Mr
President
I
do
want
to
thank
Michelle
for
the
report,
and
I
did
want
to
highlight
that
a
at
least
a
form,
and
maybe
current
Sab
member
Jesse
Tyrell
from
Polaris,
was
appointed
to
the
assembly.
As
a
youth
representative.
G
E
So
it
was
exciting
to
see
him
sworn
in
earlier
this
month.
H
Lessons
I
just
wanted
to
reflect
on
the
privilege
that
I've
had
to
be
the
board
liaison
to
Sab
over
the
past
year
and
thank
Ellie
for
her
leadership.
I
wanted
to
share
for
the
community
that
you
know
a
lot
of
my
opportunities
to
speak
to
them.
I've
been
updating
them
on
policy
changes
or
the
overall
fiscal
situation
and
I
realized
that
I
hadn't
really
talked
about
like
what
is
the
purpose
of
a
school
board
and
I
brought
it
back
to
our
goals
and
I
pointed
out
yeah.
We
have
a
reading.
H
G
H
And
I
knew
that
it
would
be
more
effective
to
bring
their
thoughts
with
me
than
to
bring
a
whole
Plane
full
of
students.
So
I
set
up
a
couple
of
big
sticky
notes
at
the
back
of
the
room
and
asked
them
to
reflect
anonymously.
You
know
for
seniors
what
was
the
most
meaningful
part
of
your
time
in
ASD.
You
know
who
were
the
people
or
what
were
the
opportunities?
Helped
you
along
the
way?
What
are
your
goals
for
our
returning
students?
H
You
know
I
asked
them
to
identify
their
goals
for
the
next
one
to
five
years,
identify
the
supports
and
experiences.
They
think
they
would
need
to
get
there
and
I.
Ask
them
to
reflect
on
what
larger
class
sizes
or
the
loss
of
extracurricular
programs
or
experienced
teachers
might
mean
thinking
that
their
thoughts
might
carry
a
great
deal
of
weight
among
our
legislators
and
then
I
asked
them.
H
Is
there
anything
else
you
want
me
to
to
bring
in
so
I
was
able
to
directly
share
their
thoughts
via
sticky
note,
as
I
connect
with
people,
and
so
I
just
want
to
say
that
I
appreciated
the
insights
and
just
honesty
that
our
students
brought
to
that
and
I
hope
that
our
legislators
were
listening.
Okay,
well,
thank
you,
Ellie
for
your
service
and
thanks
to
all
of
our
Sav
members,
it's
been
a
remarkable
learning
opportunity
for
me.
H
B
You
member
lessons,
and
that
was
a
great
activity.
She
actually
shared
it
with
me
too,
and
I
used
a
little
bit
of
it.
With
my
work,
my
advocacy
work
all
right,
not
seeing
any
more
questions
or
comments.
B
We
were
we're
going
to
have
our
conversation
around
the
report
that
was
given
to
us
at
our
last
meeting,
and
that
is
there's
two
parts
to
that
report.
The
first
part
the
goal
that
we're
addressing
is
our
college
career
life,
Readiness
goal
that
goal
reads
beginning
with
the
Freshman
Class
of
2020
September
2020,
the
percentage
of
high
school
students
graduating
life,
ready,
as
well
as
college
and
or
career
ready,
will
increase
from
a
baseline
to
be
determined
in
the
spring
to
90
in
Spring
of
2026..
B
That
is
the
goal.
We're
looking
at
two
indicators.
One
is
the
attendance
and
the
other
is
the
completion
of
the
axis,
the
Alaska
Career
Information
System,
which
is
gold,
three
point
which
is
interim
gold
3.3
of
the
CTL
goal.
B
So
I
want
to
confirm
that
all
four
components
of
the
monitoring
report
are
present.
The
report
shows
what
is
being
monitored,
that
the
specific
goal
and
interim
goals
the
report
shows
data
for
three
pre
at
least
three
previous
reporting
periods,
the
current
reporting
period
and
the
target
reporting
periods.
B
The
report
shows
the
superintendent's
evaluation
of
performance
and,
finally,
the
report
shows
supporting
documentation
that
evidence
is
the
superintendent's
evaluation
via
the
tables
and
or
next
steps
that
are
included
in
the
report.
So
with
all
of
the
components
being
present,
we
are
ready
to
begin
our
monitoring
conversation.
B
Some
of
you
have
sent
in
questions.
Others
of
you
brought
them
with
you
tonight,
which
is
fine,
so
the
purpose
for
the
purpose
of
understanding.
We
want
to
do
our
who,
what
and
why
category
questions.
First,
once
we
have
a
full
understanding,
we'll
move
on
to
our
to
the
what
I'm,
not
the
what
the
hell.
Sorry.
B
H
Sure
it's
fun,
you
know
I,
guess
a
lot
of
time
on
Slide
Five
to
start
with,
it
shows
us
a
five-year
trajectory
prior
six
year,
trajectory
seven
year
trajectory
and
it's
not
really
a
very
good
picture.
H
You
know
before
covid
we
were
having
nine
ten
eleven
thousand
students
chronically
absent
every
year,
and
then
we
have
fuzzy
data
for
the
start
of
Cobin,
and
then
we
ballooned
last
year
to
18
629
students
being
chronically
absent,
and
already
this
year,
14
524
students
are
chronically
absent,
I'm
wondering
which
of
the
groups
have
seen
the
biggest
change
in
attendance
rates
and
I.
Don't
know
if
that's
something
that
I
sent
ahead
of
time
or
if
this
was
the
question
that
sort
of.
J
So
I'll
I'll
start
and
then
turn
turn
it
over
to
others.
So
through
the
president
to
member
lessons
I
think
your
assessment
of
attendance
over
time
is
accurate.
J
Last
year
we
were
still
kind
of
in
that
post-covered
still
encouraging
people
to
stay
home
if
they
were
ill,
and
so
we
were
still
seeing
the
effects
of
of
covid
in
that
19
000
some
chronically
absent
students.
It
doesn't
necessarily
look
great,
but
it
is
a
little
bit
better
this
year
and
we're
still
feeling
the
effects
of
covid
it's
just
in
a
different
way
this
year,
and
it
has
more
to
do
with
just
people's
ability
to
cope
and
and
mental
health.
J
So
so
those
are
a
lot
of
the
reasons
for
absenteeism,
there's
also
just
a
kind
of
an
anecdotal
kind
of
feeling
that
attendance
isn't
as
much
of
a
priority
since
covid,
because
people
are
prioritizing
other
things,
because
we
were
pretty
lenient
about
attendance
so
that
we're
still
seeing
some
of
that
kind
of
translate
as
well
through
our
attendance
rates,
all
that
to
say
that
it's
it's
definitely
an
area
that
we
need
to
look
at
and
improve,
and
so
those
are
just
kind
of
my
initial
thoughts
around
around
the
numbers.
J
A
That
Elementary
level,
you
know
I,
concur
with
everything
we're
talking
about.
You
know.
One
of
the
things
that
we're
trying
we
want
schools
to
be
is
an
engaging
place
for
families
in
the
community
to
be
able
to
feel
welcomed
and
safe
at
that
school,
so
at
all
schools,
and
so
what
we're
seeing
is
a
is
a
rebattleways
revitalization
of
all
those
practices
that
we
did
beforehand.
A
Our
first
science
fairs,
our
field
trips
and
all
those
activities
and
programs
and
pieces
that
are
making
schools
more
engaging
for
students,
Beyond
just
the
straight
academics
in
the
classroom
that
Outreach,
so
the
more
that
we
can
bring
those
things
back
into
the
schools.
The
better
I
mean
if
you
go
to
slide
four,
which
is
the
grade
level
distribution
at
elementary.
A
You
know,
I
think
we
should
make
a
push
at
the
kindergarten
level
and
then
look
at
look
at
emphasis
of
attendance,
starting
in
kindergarten
all
the
way
up
and
making
sure
that's
really
important
that
our
families
hear
that
that
we
want
to
see
students
in
school.
Those
are
important
things
that
I
think
we
need
to
continue
to
message
with
our
families.
B
H
Have
follow-up?
Yes,
this
is
relayed,
so
we
were
just
talking
about
the
Sab
meeting
and
I
raised
the
issue
of
chronic
absenteeism
to
the
students,
and
they
said
well.
How
many
days
is
that
I
said
well,
I
think
it's
17.
and
that
is
not
like
a
known
number
out
there,
and
so
it
may
be
that
we
really
I
mean
engagement
absolutely.
H
But
my
takeaway
from
this
conversation
with
a
student
was
that
maybe
our
messaging
needs
to
be
a
lot
more
direct
and
say
you
know
this
is
the
number
of
days
that
will
cause
you
to
be
chronically
absent
and
I.
Just
and
then
I
was
thinking
about
a
conversation.
I
had
with
a
a
middle
school
teacher
recently
who
said
well
when
they
do
come,
the
chronically
absence,
students,
they're,
lost
and
I
think
both
of
those
stakeholder
sort
of
conversations
they're
just
really
sad.
H
These
are
students
who
who
were
losing
because
they're
not
there
and
we
can't
teach
them
if
they're
not
there
and
if
they
develop
bad
habits
starting
in
kindergarten.
That's
not
going
to
serve
us
for
them.
Well,
the
rest
of
the
trajectory
so
I
think
it's!
You
know.
We
have,
and
so
this
isn't
a
comment.
This
is
another
conversation,
but
you
know,
even
if
you
look
at
and
I'm
sorry
I'm
looking
at
slide
three
right,
we
have
an
indicator
that.
F
H
H
H
So
I
guess
that's
a
thought.
A
series
of
thoughts,
but
I
really
appreciate
that
we're
having
this
conversation
and
I
look
forward
to
other
board
members
questions,
but
yeah.
Thank.
E
Yeah.
Thank
you,
madam
president.
So
a
question
just
kind
of
a
more
basic
nature
on
the
data
the
to
to
be
counted
in
attendance.
In
one
of
these
tables
like
by
grade
level,
is
it
required
that
students
are
present
for
all
classes
or
periods
of
the
day
or
if
a
student's
absent
from
one
class
or
period?
Would
they
not
count
towards
this
metric
foreign.
J
We
calculate
attendance
differently
at
the
different
levels,
so
we
don't
count
as
student
absent
in
secondary
unless
they're
gone,
15
or
more
minutes
in
a
class
period
and
Elementary
counts
their
attendance
by
half
days.
So
so
the
attendance
metrics
are
different
between
the
divisions.
We
would
have
to
drill
down
into
this
data
to
get
more
separated
data,
if,
if
students
who
Miss
partial
days
are
included
in
this
data
as
well
so
I,
don't
know
the
answer
to
that
the
question,
but
we
could
follow
up
with
board
connect.
E
Well,
so
thank
you
and
I
should
have
sent
this
in
advance,
so
I
apologize.
It
would
be
interesting
and
it
makes
me
wonder
if
there's
so.
If
did
I
understand
your
answer
right,
that
if
a
student
at
the
secondary
level
is
absent
from
15
minutes
of
one
period,
they're
kind
of
absent
for
the
entire
day
or
just.
E
Got
it
okay,
but
we
aren't
sure
if,
if
that
one
class
period
means
they're
included
in
this
demographic
right,
okay
copied
and
then
it
might
be
interesting,
I
don't
know
if
we
have
this
data
or
if
it's
more
of
an
RFI
or
if
it's
worth
digging
in
too
deeper
but
knowing
and
having
a
list,
maybe
of
the
common
classes
that
students
are
absent
from
and
missed,
15
or
more
minutes.
E
If
that
might
tell
us
something,
tell
a
story
and
something
the
board
can
do
to
support
like
if
it's
you
know
something
that's
Ela
related
or
math
related
or
if
it's
yeah
by
topic
and
so
curious
about
that.
So
thank
you.
B
I
mean
you
guys
were
all
in
the
district
when
we
had
destination.
2020
and
attendance
was
one
of
the
targets
and,
as
I
recall
as
I
as
I.
Remember,
every
school
had
to
have
an
attendance
Focus
initiative,
so
we
no
longer
have
I
mean
we
don't
have
that
goal.
That
gold
is
now
embedded
in
our
goal.
Number
our
third
CCL
goal.
B
Is
it
your
so
knowing
what
you
knew
from
back
in
2020?
Well,
when
we
ended
destination
2020
and
we
transitioned
over
into
where
we
are
now,
does
the
opportunity
for
students
to
high
school
students
to
make
up
even
Middle
School
students
they
can
be?
There
is
no
I
hear
what
member
lessons
is
saying
when
she
says
that
you
know
when
she's
concerned
that
kids,
you
know
are
chronically
absent,
they
are,
but
they
get
to
make
up
endlessly.
B
What
is
what
impact
is
that
I
mean
because
at
the
high
school
level,
teachers
can
just
spend
hours
days,
just
giving
kids
makeup
work
and
I'm
not
saying
I'm
against
it,
but
it
does
not
create
the
urgency
to
come
to
school.
So
I'm
wondering
what
your
thoughts
are
on,
that.
K
My
thought
on,
that
is
the
majority
of
the
kids
that
are
chronically
absent,
they've.
Even
given
many
many
opportunities,
they
still
don't
make
up
the
work.
If
there's
something
else,
that's
keeping
them
from
school
and
from
the
school
work
other
than
you
know
if
they,
if
they're
wanting
to
make
up
stuff,
especially
at
the
high
school
level,
with
all
the
lessons
are
on
canvas
and
they
can
make
it
up
when
they're
absent
and
we
have
kids
that
could
be
considered
chronically
absent
because
of
health
issues
and
stuff
who
are
actually
doing
the
work.
B
Lot
of
Grace:
how
do
we
translate
the
urgency
of
attendance
to
parents,
I
mean
I,
know
we
we
have
no.
We
cannot
police
parents
or
tell
parents
what
to
do,
but
how?
How
do
we?
How
can
we
that's
a
how
question?
But
what
strategies
are
we
currently
using
that
you
are
aware
of
with
parents
to
let
them
know
how
crucial,
because
when
we
look
at
I
think
it's
slide
two
and
it
has
the
you
know
a
missed
day
of
school
is
a
lost
opportunity
for
students
to
learn.
K
K
You
know
over
the
years,
even
in
essence,
destination
2020
we've
had
a
real
decrease
in
the
amount
of
administrative
support
or
help
that
we
have
in
our
buildings
because
of
budget
cuts,
and
it
just
gets
harder
and
harder,
as
these
numbers
go
higher
and
higher
to
be
able
to
actually
do
these
one-on-one
outreaches
for
kids
I
think
that
when
we're
really
looking
at
attendance
now,
we
have
to
be
able
to
look
at
it
as
a
whole
community
peace
and
get
their
information
out.
You
know
we
used
to
give
away
cars
and
that
really.
K
Change
the
attendance
rate,
even
when
we
gave
away
cars
right
I
mean
so
it
at
some
point.
We
have
to
look
at
and
help
our
community
realize
that
we
have.
We
need
the
kids
here
and
if
that
means
we're
going
to
need
to
put
more
resources
into
community
outreach
or
Community
campaigns,
maybe
we
need
to
do
that
at
the
end
of
the
day,
a
kid
that
is
really
engaged
in
the
classroom
is
usually
going
to
be
there
right.
K
But
what
we're
finding
now
is
coming
out
of
the
pandemic
and
I
say
coming
out,
but
we're
two
years
out
right
and
we're
using
this
still
and
it's
kindergarteners
who
this
is
their
first
year
in,
but
they
went
through
the
pandemic
too.
They
had
their
families
back
in
their
houses
the
whole
time,
even
when
they're
a
little
preschoolers.
So
this
is
a
real
big
question
and
it's
one
that
to
tackle
is
going
to
take
a
lot
of
different
pieces
and
it
isn't
going
to
be
just
us
in
our
district.
J
Yeah
and
I
I
would
add
to
that
that
we
we
do
a
lot
of
student
by
student
work
around
attendance,
because
usually,
if
a
student,
as
a
son
talked
about
it,
is
having
an
attendance
struggles,
there's
usually
a
secondary
issue.
That's
causing
that
lack
of
attendance
and
and
getting
at
that
root.
Cause
of
what
that
attendance
issue
is
is
really
the
the
hard
work
right,
whether
it's
a
medical
issue
or
a
family
situation
or
homelessness.
J
There's
a
lot
of
reasons
why
kids
don't
come
to
school
or
engage
with
school
and,
and
we
have
a
lot
of
support
for
different
kind
of
populations
within
our
district,
where
we
do
a
lot
of
one-on-one
work
and
Outreach,
we
do
home
visits,
we
work,
we
work
with
all
sorts
of
different
Avenues
to
get
at
that
student
to
get
them
to
school
and
we're
not
always
successful.
Unfortunately,
because
the
need
is
growing
so.
A
And
then
I
just
add
you
know
at
the
building
level
we
have
our
mtss
structures
right.
We
have
our
individual
student
problem
solving
teams.
Elementary
schools
also
have
your
foundation,
leadership
teams.
So
in
those
leadership
teams
you
work
through
some
of
those
attendance
mechanisms
that
help
drive
that
there's
the
the
red,
yellow
and
green
stoplight
charts
so
that
you
can
send
messages
home
but
family,
say
hey
you're
in
the
green,
your
students
can
only
you
missed
zero
days
or
one
day
or
two
day
and
then
you're
moving
into
the
yellow
and
you've
missed.
A
Maybe
four
days
or
five
days
or
six
days,
you
move
to
the
red,
you're
upwards
of
12
or
13
or
14
days,
some
of
those
things
that
we
could
probably
do
better
as
a
district-wide
practice.
A
lot
of
those
happen
in
Pockets
at
different
elementary
schools.
We
could
probably
have
a
stronger,
centralized
approach
to
help,
support
that
message
and
share
that,
but
the
schools
are
at
individual
levels
using
their
Foundation
teams,
their
individual
problem
solving
teams,
but
a
lot
of
it
happens
at
the
individual
level
or
locally
at
the
school
level.
So
that's
some
opportunity.
A
H
H
I
simply
looked
at
the
enrollment,
we
have
39
645
students
and
we
have
25
121
students
with
90
attendance
with
Hawaii's
14
524
students
who
are
chronically
absent
against.
J
You
so
the
yeah,
so,
as
someone
indicated,
counselors
do
a
lot
of
of
that
work
at
the
secondary
level.
There
are
security
teams
also
do
that
work.
Our
administrators
also
do
that
work.
We
also
have
different
resources
in
Title
One
schools,
with
support
positions
that
may
work
on
that
as
well.
J
J
Typically
like
Eric
described
at
the
elementary
level,
there
is
a
support
team
that
meets
that
it
usually
is
comprised
of
counselors
security,
admin
and
potentially
other
support
positions
in
the
building
and
attendance
is
one
of
those
things
that
they
look
at
and
how
to
support
students
and
problems
all
around
it,
along
with
a
whole
host
of
others.
A
And
then,
at
the
elementary
level,
it's
the
classroom,
teacher
oftentimes
that
engages
with
the
family
right.
It's
your
you're,
the
you're,
the
home
you're,
the
home
teacher
for
elementary
students.
So
then,
with
that,
in
addition
to
that,
it's
the
principles
that
are
reaching
out
and
potentially
front
office
staff.
G
J
Yeah
I
I
can
say
that,
yes,
we
do
track
why
kids
are
not
at
school.
J
It's
it's
self-reported
by
parents
when
they're
excusing
those
absences,
so
we
have
to
rely
on
the
honesty
of
families,
reporting
those
absences
and
if
they
actually
indicate
the
right
thing
so
that
we
can
track
it,
we
do
have
a
lot
of
families
that
still
substance
fish
or
hunt,
typically
in
the
fall
or
or
spring,
we
do
allow
for
those
those
absences
and
excuse
them
and
and
keep
them
up
to
date
as
much
as
possible.
G
K
Okay
can
I
just
feed
on
to
one
other
answer,
just
a
little
bit
more
about
who's
doing
the
work.
You
know
we
have
a
lot
of
kids
at
crisis
right
now
and
we
have
a
lot
of
kids
that
are
exhibiting
extreme
behaviors
and
that's
almost
a
full-time
job
right
there
during
the
day
for
our
staff
and
attendance
is
not
one
that
they
get
to
a
lot
because
of
everything
else
that's
going
on.
L
Okay,
member
Holloman.
M
I
just
like
to
say
more
to
the
board
in
2008
or
2009
was
stimulus,
money
from
the
federal
government
when
the
economy
was
being
restarted.
We
actually
developed
a
system
of
graduation
coaches
through
the
district
that
were
focused
on
some
of
these
issues.
M
Looking
at
kids
that
were
on
the
bubble
to
graduate
but
Falling
for
some
reason
that
attendance
might
be
down,
grades
might
be
down,
but
something
was
happening
and
it
was
staff
with
support
staff,
not
certified
teachers
but
the
and
to
some
degree
the
outcomes
are
anecdotal,
but
it
was
testimony
from
dozens
of
students.
That
said
this
person
turned
things
around
and
it's
tedious
and
it
means
going
out
and
finding
that
student
because
they're
not
at
school.
M
You
can't
go
pull
them
out
of
class
because
they're
not
there
and
then
interviewing
them
and
trying
to
figure
out
what
the
problem
is
and
then
Garner
some
resources
to
help
them
and
it
can
be
done
and
it
does
have
results.
But
it's
a
program
we
drop
for
lack
of
funding
and,
of
course
it
would
be
ideal
to
do
that.
For
every
student,
that's
underwater,
but
we've
never
even
began
to
think
about
doing
that
because
that's
just
an
absurd
amount
of.
M
M
We
there
are
things
like
this.
We
know.
G
M
To
do
yeah,
we
absolutely
just
lack
the
resources
to
do
it.
The
other
thing
I'll
mention
is
that
the
duty
of
trying
to
track
absences
and
call
home
is
not
evenly
distributed
in
in
certain
schools
and
in
certain
classes
within
certain
schools,
the
absentee
rate
can
be
high.
That
means
that
some
teachers
may
have
to
make
a
dozen
calls
every
day
if
they're
trying
to
stay
up
with
It
While
others
make
one,
so
it
really
I
I,
think
it's
great
to
encourage
people
and
to
try
to
do
it
realistically.
M
We
can't
really
address
it
without
staff
and
we
decided
a
long
time
ago,
not
to
staff
for
that,
for
I
think
the
right
reasons,
but
it
is
something
we
could
bring
back
if
we,
if
we
had
adequate
funds.
B
Thank
you,
member
Jacobs.
E
Yeah,
thank
you,
madam
president.
So,
following
up
on
President
Bellamy's
question
regarding
the
steps
and
the
resources
that
are
being
used
and
then
I
think
I
heard,
Mr
Gus
was
mentioned
that
the.
E
The
efficacy
and
the
utilization
is
going
to
be
hit
or
miss
potentially
based
on
Staffing
per
campus
I
feel
like
that's,
not
something
that
we're
discussing
as
often
as
we
should
be.
Is
it's
it's
a
it's
a
really
significant
justification
for
Education
funding
in
general,
as
Dr
strumpler
Johnson
mentioned,
when
we
are
identifying
the
reasons
why
students
are
absent,
we're
addressing
barriers
to
making
students
successful.
So
if
we're
not
doing
that
with
consistency,
I
guess
my
questions
are
we
letting
students
fall
through
the
cracks
and
how
do
we?
E
How
do
we
do
better
I
guess
is
to
start
us
off.
J
So
second
offer
a
couple
of
thoughts
to
remember.
Jacob's,
question
or
or
comment
on
one
I
do
think.
Staffing
is
a
major
issue
when
it
comes
to
the
attendance
problem.
We've
kind
of
talked
around
that
a
little
bit
but
more
directly
when
you
think
about
at
a
secondary
school
security
staff,
administrators
and
counselors.
Being
like
that
primary
group,
that's
working
on
attendance
and
then
think
about
all
of
the
other
jobs
that
they
do
in
a
day.
J
You
know
attendance
while,
like
extremely
important,
isn't
necessarily
always
an
urgent
need
right
that
day
at
that
time,
and
so
Staffing
definitely
helps
and
and
I
was
a
curriculum,
principal
and
principal.
When
grad
coaches
were
placed
in
in
high
schools-
and
they
did
make
a
significant
impact
on
getting
some
kids
across
that
graduation
stage,
because
they
had
kind
of
a
almost
like
a
life
coach
like
pushing
them,
pushing
them
down
the
road
right
and
they
were
able
to
track
homework
and
make
sure
kids
got
their
assignments
in.
J
And
you
know
they
they
really
checked
on
them
and
and
did
a
lot
of
like
work
that
our
counselors
were
able
to
do
because
they're
busy,
with
other
things
that
are
Urgent
in
their
offices,
responding
to
mental
health
and
and
all
of
the
scheduling
and
all
of
those
things
that
they
have
to
do
on
a
regular
basis.
J
But
the
other
piece
that
I
think
is
promising.
When
we
look
at
attendance
around
our
CCL
work,
especially
as
as
a
board
goal
and
and
looking
at
a
transformation,
is
giving
kids
that
pathway
of
why
showing
up
is
important.
It's
not
just
to
get
a
diploma,
it's
to
get
a
job
and
to
have
a
plan
for
your
future
and-
and
it
really
gives
well
while
graduation
is-
is
Coveted
and
and
well
respected.
J
As
as
an
entity
in
our
public
education
system,
I
think
giving
them
that
pathway
to
adulthood
is
much
more
inspirational
and
motivational,
sometimes
for
kids
than
just
getting
that
piece
of
paper.
You
know
so
I
think
that
there's
some
potential
there
and
I
think
I
I
do
think
we're
on
the
right
track.
Funding
and
Staffing
are
always
the
challenge
foreign.
E
So
I
guess
my
my
request
then
or
I
guess
somebody
wandering
on
this
particular
topic
is:
should
we
have
a
policy
or
a
handbook
that
reflects
our
current
reality
and
not
our
aspiration?
If
we're
not
except
our
handbook
indicates
that
there
are
consequences
and
and
levels
of
graduated
response
based
on
the
number
of
absences,
things
of
that
nature
and
it
references
Alaska
statute,
and
so
you
should
wear
documentation.
Reflect
reality
is
kind
of
my
question
so
should
I
take
the
form
of
updated
documentation
or
a
word
policy
or
an
AR
and
I?
E
Don't
necessarily
need
the
answer
or
commitment
to
that
tonight,
but
something
to
think
about
the
other
other
wondering
I
had-
and
this
goes
to
our
data,
dashboard
and
I-
think
I'm.
Reading
this
correctly,
when
it
indicates
that
we
had
707
suspensions
in
22-23
for
absentee
or
truancy
when
I've
read
that
historically
I
assumed
that
that
was,
students
being
tardy
to
class,
but
I
am
looking
at
the
handbook.
J
So
I
I
think
it's
an
astute
observation.
That's
something
that
we
we
really
work
with
our
assistant
principals
on
because
most
of
those
are
out
of
the
secondary
level.
So,
typically,
if
a
student
is
suspended
under
that
category,
it's
due
to
Chronic
truancy,
so
they
are
actively
ditching
classes
not
excused.
There
have
been
many
other
interventions
tried
prior
to
that.
J
Often
it's
coupled
with
another
offense
such
as
disruptive
behavior
or
something
along
those
lines,
and
so
each
I
mean
each
individual
student
has
a
different
circumstance,
but
it
is
something
that
we
are
trying
to
move
away
from
and
and
typically,
if
truancy
is
the
reason
for
a
suspension.
It's
typically
an
in-school
suspension
where
we
have
the
student
in
school.
They
may
not
go
to
regular
classes,
but
they're
still
able
to
work
on
their
work,
and
we
do
some
restorative
work
in
those
those
settings.
E
So
I
would
encourage
us
and
I
don't
know
if
assuming
the
board
should
weigh
into
I'll
think
about
this,
but
just
in
our
handbook
it
indicates
that
suspension
for
missing
school
days
could
be
a
consequence
and
I
for
the
life
of
me.
I,
don't
I,
don't
see
the
wisdom
there.
E
As
a
matter
of
fact,
I
know,
students
and
I've
had
plenty
of
use
in
my
home
who
have
actively
avoided
and
so
in
school
suspensions
by
trying
trying
to
triangulate
with
different
administrators,
who
said
that
they
should
have
another
school
suspension,
they'd
go
somewhere
else,
and
so
teenagers
are
exceptionally
creative
and
never
cease
to
amaze
me
and
so
I
would
encourage
us
just
as
a
foster
parent
that
numerous
teenagers
to
move
away
from
the
idea
of
suspending
students
who
are
absent,
tardy
is
another
matter.
E
You
know,
I
I,
don't
know
the
wisdom
there,
but
I
think
it's
certainly
worth
the
discussion,
but
I'll
talk
with
Madam
president,
and
maybe
she
needs
to
talk
me
off
the
ledge
from
a
board
policy
proposal
before
we
go
any
further,
but
we'll
have
more
discussion
offline.
Thank
you.
B
I
I,
do
not
I
think
this
is
a
very
great
conversation,
I
think
from
it.
There
are
a
number
of
things
that
we
can't
explore
further
and
to
Dr
strumpler
Johnson's
point
I,
think
our
CCL
transformation
will
create
that
additional
inspiration
to
Aspire
to
a
highway
try
to
be
a
job
or
you
know,
completing
your
associates
degree
credentials.
I
mean
the
sky's
really
the
limit
and,
of
course,
additional
resources
to
fulfill
these
other
structural
deficiencies
due
to
budget
cuts
will
take
us
a
long
way
too.
J
B
I
was
visiting
East
a
couple
weeks
ago
and
Principal
Brown
took
me
to
visit
a
class
where
he
was
reconnecting
students
to
school
students
who
were
either
they
dropped
out
or
were
in
the
on
a
trajectory
to
drop
out,
and
they
had
the
most
amazing
person
in
that
room
for
those
kids
and
it
didn't
matter
what
time
of
day
they
showed
up,
they
knew
they
had
that
person
and
so
I
I,
somehow
I
think
having
a
person
or
persons
available
for
kids
and
it's
going
to
be
tough
because
I
I
don't
have
the
answer,
but
but
we've
got
to.
B
So
my
final,
not
final,
but
my
I
have
a
question
on
the
other.
We've
spent
all
of
our
time
on
the
attendance
rate,
but
we
also,
how
is
it
going
with
the
X?
Where
are
we
with
the
career
planning?
We
start
in
the.
Could
you
just
give
an
overview?
We
start
in
the
eighth
grade
and
what?
What
are
those,
what
tools
we're
using
to
get
kids.
J
Through
for
the
next
for
the
career
planning,
so
we
currently
have
varied
use
of
akcis
a
system
across
the
secondary
ranks.
We
also
so
so.
Those
are
numbers
that
we're
looking
to
increase
over
time.
The
other
item
that
we
have
going
in
this
category
is
that
we
piloted
last
summer
with
our
middle
schoolers
that
took
the
king,
Tech
High
School
summer
program
on
it's
an
exploratory
program.
We've
done
the
last
couple
of
Summers.
J
We
piloted
a
youth
science
tool
which
is
similar
to
akcis,
but
it
it
also
has
some
CR,
like
some
personality,
characteristic
building
of
like
identifying
skills
that
you're
good
at
the
interests
that
you
have
and
and
starting
to
pique
your
interest
into
what
types
of
careers
include
those
skills
or
kind
of
personality
traits,
and
it
was
highly
successful,
we're
hoping
to
do
it
again
this
summer
and
as
we
start
building
our
CCL
work
through
the
middle
school
ranks
and
into
high
school,
that's
a
tool
that
we're
looking
to
to
expand
more
at
that
level
and
and
then
additionally,
at
the
high
school
level,
continue
to
work
through
akcis
in
a
in
a
more
substantial
way.
J
B
N
Remember,
Wilson
I
get
really
happy
about
that
conversation.
I
had
the
the
privilege
of
of
traveling
to
Nashville
or
our
our
CCL
work
and
I
was
really
happy
to
see
there.
N
There's
so
much
I
understand
they're
further
ahead
in
the
process
with
their
academies,
but
in
in
Anchorage
we
have
so
many
of
those
pieces
and
parts
that
exist
with
our
Partnerships,
with
the
work
being
done
in
many
of
our
schools
and
their
classes
and
and
the
opportunity
to
work
more
collaboratively
and
bring
all
those
pieces
and
parts
together
to
really
benefit
our
students
and
our
families
and
and
our
business
Community.
N
I'm
super
excited
about
that
work.
I'm
super
excited
about
the
the
future
opportunities
for
our
students
and
and
I
wanted
to
say
that
the
summer
exploration
program
I
got
to
be
a
part
of
that
as
a
business
partner
and
heard
so
many
wonderful
things
from
students
and
and
their
parents
regarding
that
program.
So
I'm
super
excited
that's
happening
again
as
as
king
with
King
Tech
or
with
any
of
our
other
programs.
N
The
opportunities
for
students
to
not
only
select
their
potential
careers
but
to
deselect
is
just
as
important
to
save
that
time
to
save
training
for
for
what
ever
business
or
organization
that
they
potentially
could
go
into,
or
saving
that
as
a
parent
saving
all
that
money
on
College,
it's
fantastic,
so
I'm,
just
gonna
throw
out
there
super
excited
about
the
work.
That's
being
done.
So.
Thank
you.
B
Hey
so
I
know,
probably
30
years
ago,
we
used
to
have
truant
offices
and
I
know
that
and
I'm
not
suggesting
that
we
go
back
to
Truman
officers
because
I
don't
think
that's
the
way
either.
B
But
I
do
think,
given
our
mental
mental
health
and
wellness
strategies
that
we're
trying
to
that
we're
implementing
and
really
going
back
to
what
Mr
Jacob
said,
the
reality
of
what
of
our
situation.
B
I
do
look
forward
to
more
conversations
on
how
we
can
not
just
get
kids
interested
in
school.
Keep
them
in
school,
educate
parents
about
school,
because
I
think
the
information
that's
on
on
the
slides
are
is
very,
is
very
important
and
I
think
that
we
just
need
to
make
it
more
public
and
MJ's.
B
Gonna
kill
me
because
that's
given
his
his
team,
more
work
to
do,
but
I
do
think
it's
important
for
us
to
really
campaign
around
the
importance
of
attendance,
and
my
final
comment
would
be
because,
when
I
talked
to
secondary
educators,
the
make
the
the
the
the
makeup
policies
are.
B
So
overwhelming
kid
you
know:
kids,
a
kid
can
and
I
don't
know
the
balance,
but
I
know
that
it's
overwhelming
when
you,
when
kids
know
that
they
don't
have
to
be
in
school
because
they
get
the
right
to
make
up
forever
and
ever
and
ever
that
is
that's
a
heavyweight
for
us
for
teachers.
It
keeps
them.
B
You
know,
that's
not
continuous
Improvement,
not
for
the
student
and
not
for
our.
G
B
B
B
So
that
brings
us
now
to
our
first
hour
of
public
comments
and
I'd
like
to
just
review
our
decorum
requirements
for
the
boardroom,
and
so
we're
again
happy
that
you're
here
today.
If
this
is
your
first
time
when
you
entered
the
boardroom,
you
would
have.
You
could
pick
up
a
the
guidelines
that
I'm
going
to
review
with
you
relative
to
providing
public
comment
and
or
public
testimony.
B
So
during
public
comment
board
members
will
not
answer
questions
or
engage
in
discussion
with
members
of
the
public.
This
is
the
Public's
time
to
speak
and
the
board's
time
to
listen,
which
is
why
you
may
address
the
board
on
any
topic,
whether
it's
a
agenda
item
or
a
non-agenda
item.
Although
there
is
a
special
place
for
agenda
items
for
you
to
talk
specifically
on
agenda
items,
so
for
those
of
you
who
have
signed
up,
we
will
begin
our
process
an
action
item.
B
Memo
is
first
introduced
by
the
Vice
President
when
we
get
to
that
part
of
the
agenda
and
if,
second
by
another
board
member,
the
president
will
open
the
floor
for
public
comment
and
that
so,
but
initially
for
this,
the
initial
round.
As
I
said,
you
may
comment
on
any
item
that
you'd,
like
you,
will
be
allowed.
30
sec
I
mean
three
minutes.
30
seconds
would
be
much
time,
but
you
will
have
three
minutes.
B
We
will
give
you
a
little
ding
ding
warning
in
30
seconds
so
that
you
can
pace
yourself
to
conclude
your
comments,
so
we
relative
to
the
rules
of
the
boardroom.
We
asked
that
no
one
attack
a
member
or
a
speaker's
motive.
Speakers
May
point
out
what
he
or
she
believes
to
be
a
natural
consequence
of
a
board
of
the
board's
action,
but
may
not
engage
in
speech
that
personally
attack.
Others,
please
refrain
from
disturbing
the
meeting
and
for
in
this
board
room.
B
That
means
no
cheering
Applause
or
outbursts
attendees,
where
each
board
member
will
get
one
so
the
board
as
board
president.
It
is
my
duty
to
enforce
these
rules
these
of
Civility
and
decorum.
We
use
Robert's
Rules
of
Order
for
our
processes.
So
with
these
rules
in
mind,
we
will
begin
our
first
hour
of
testimony.
We
do
not
have
any
I
mean
a
public
comment.
We
do
not
have
any
student
comment
tonight.
So
we're
going
to
start
with
on
our
on
our
phone
Sherry
streisik.
B
B
O
All
right,
I'm
going
to
address
the
blue
aside
by
Tony
Morrison.
It
is
a
graphic
novel
about
Piccola,
an
11
year
old
black
girl
who
endures
her
father's
ancestrous
rape.
This
book
is
available
to
high
school
children
as
young
as
14..
This
book
can
be
found
at
Service
East
to
yak
and
Eagle
River
high
schools,
in
addition
to
some
others,
procolis
rape
is
described
on
page
one
to
eight.
O
The
following
is
a
truncated
version
of
her
rape,
the
tenderness
welled
up
in
him,
and
he
sang
to
his
knees
his
eyes
on
the
of
his
daughter
crawling
on
all
fours
toward
her.
He
raised
his
hand
and
caught
the
foot
in
an
upward
stroke.
Piccola
lost
her
balance
and
was
about
to
careen
to
the
floor.
Julie
raised
his
other
ham
to
her
hips
to
save
her
from
falling.
He
put
his
head
down
and
nibbled
at
the
back
of
her
leg,
his
mouth
trembled
at
the
firm
sweetness
of
the
flesh.
O
He
closed
his
eyes,
letting
his
fingers
dig
into
her
waist
the
rigidness
of
her
shock
body,
The
Silence
of
her
stung
throat,
the
confused
mixture
of
his
memories
and
the
doing
of
a
wild
and
forbidden
thing
excited
him,
and
a
bowl
of
Desire
ran
down
to
his
genitals,
giving
it
length
and
softening
the
lips
of
his
anus
surrounding
all
of
this
lust
was
a
border
of
politeness.
He
wanted
to
blank
her
tenderly,
but
the
tenderness
would
not
hold
the
tightness
of
her.
Vagina
was
more
than
he
could
bear.
O
He
could
not
tell
removing
himself
from
her
was
so
painful
to
him.
He
cut
short
and
snatched
his
tonsils
out
of
the
Dry
Harbor
of
her
vagina.
She
appeared
to
have
fainted
choli
stood
up
and
could
see
only
her
grayish
panties,
so
sad
and
Limp
around
her
ankles.
The
hatred
would
not
let
him
pick
her
up.
The
tenderness
forced
him
to
cover
her.
O
So
when
the
child
regained
Consciousness,
she
was
lying
on
the
kitchen
floor
under
a
heavy
quilt
trying
to
connect
the
pain
between
her
legs,
with
the
face
of
her
mother
over
her
I
pray
that
we
have
the
support
of
the
ASD
school
board
members
to
protect
our
children
and
remove
these
sexually
graphic
novels
from
her
school
libraries.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
L
How
can
that
be
in
my
day,
just
as
it
is
today,
ASD
students
only
learned
about
Alaska
native
peoples
and
cultures
once
in
third
grade
the
terribly
outdated
curriculum,
centers
non-native
perspectives
on
indigenous
peoples,
as
others
speaks
of
us
in
past
tense
and
our
communities
as
isolated
and
non-modern.
It
needs
to
be
overhauled
that
that's
a
conversation
for
another
day
having
had
a
terrible
experiences
going
through
that
unit,
myself,
I
have
grown
into
each
of
my
kids
schools
in
their
third
grade
classes
to
present
a
different
perspective
on
Alaska
native
peoples.
L
L
L
I
taught
them
that
we're
all
living
on
the
homelands
of
the
dental
Union,
we're
responsible
for
being
good
guests
here.
At
the
end,
a
shy
white
child
raised
her
hand
and
asked
me
why
they'd
never
learned
any
of
these
things
before
I
said.
You
know,
that's
a
very
good
question.
Why
do
you
believe
it's
important.
L
He
was
quiet,
I
think
that
if
other
people
moved
into
my
family's
house,
I
would
want
them
to
know
about
my
family
I'd
want
them
to
know
how
we
take
care
of
our
house.
So
we
could
live
well
together
to
get
this
there's
no
one
on
Earth.
That
knows
these
lands
and
Waters
like
the
Gangnam
people
that
have
always
called
this
place
home
and
the
most
detailed
history
of
this
place
is
encoded
in
their
language.
L
So
not
nearly
enough.
A
meaningful
land
acknowledgment
each
day
in
our
schools
opens
the
door
to
more
knowledge
of
this
place
into
her
schools
and
communities.
Additionally,
I'd
also
like
to
know
my
full
support
for
anccs
to
move
into
Adult,
Book,
school
and
I
hope
you
all
agree.

We

a
question
again
for
the
Starships
hi
hey
good
afternoon.
Thank
you
ma'am
good
afternoon,
and
thank
you
for
allowing
me
the
time
to
speak.
My
name
is
Mike
Grunst
My
Views
represent
my
own
and
do
not
represent
those
of
the
Department
of
Defense
of
US

or

to
the
earlier
speaker,
I
apologize
if
I
mispronounce.
Your
name
is
thank
you
for
allowing
me
and
my
family
to
visit
your
ancestral
lands.
I
will
do
my
best
to
honor
and
appreciate
it
for
the
rest
of
my
ability.
Q
Over
the
past
years,
I've
spoken
to
the
board
on
several
issues:
education,
funding,
importance
of
saving
immersion
programs,
my
support
of
adjusting
School
opening
times
based
on
on
science.
Today,
Revenue
issue
brewing
and
our
community
is
going
to
need
the
support
of
the
board
in
the
administration
to
address
it.
Let
me
preface
my
comments
with
a
note
that
I
don't
have
all
of
the
facts.
Q
We
are
still
trying
to
get
out
of
them,
so
we
can
prepare
our
team
to
engage
with
all
the
appropriate
entities
to
typically
Anchorage
School
District,
Anchorage,
School,
Board,
U.S
customs
and
immigration
service.
Senator
murkowski
Senator,
Sullivan
and
representative
altola
I
have
a
couple
children
they're
enrolled
in
The,
Amazing,
Chinese
immersion
program,
one
at
tenant,
Park
and
the
other
baggage
Middle
School,
so
their
teachers
are
being
deported.
Q
We
don't
know
yet
all
of
the
reasons
why
I
know
that
they
have
an
H-1B
visa
they've
reached
the
maximum
dwell
time
of
six
years.
One
is
being
sent
home
as
of
March
and
the
other
in
October
of
next
year.
These
anchors
residents
are
part
of
our
community.
They
have
kids
enrolled
in
the
Anchorage
School
District,
including
an
11th
grader
in
the
highly
gifted
program
at
West.
They
have
taught
our
community's
children,
including
some
of
yours,
for
the
last
six
years.
Q
Q
We
understand.
We
cannot
request
items
that
are
personal
in
nature.
We
have
not,
and
we
will
not
do
so.
We
simply
need
to
create
a
shared
understanding,
so
we
can
engage
with
one
voice.
We
are
preparing
our
documentation,
we're
gathering
information.
We
need
the
information
on
what
the
district's
procedures,
timelines
and
processes
are
for
hiring
emerging
teachers.
What
are
the
processes,
alerts
and
gateways
for
assisting
immersion
teachers
to
get
permanent
present
residency
if
they
deserve,
where
the
promises
being
made
to
these
highly
desirable
and
very
teachers
immigrating
from
over
overseas?
Q
Q
Strong
communities
are
both
on
the
basis
of
strong
schools,
strong
schools
built
on
good
teachers,
good
Administration,
supported
children
and
engaged
parents.
Please
help
me
when
I
come
back
to
you
to
engage
with
one
voice
to
keep
these
two
important
pillars
of
our
community.
Thank
you
and
have
a
wonderful
day.
E
B
Is
there
any
opposition
to
approving
the
agenda
as
amended
I
mean
not
the
agenda.
The
consent
agenda
seen
hearing
none,
the
consent
agenda
is
approved,
except
for
those
two
items
and
they
will
become
item
three
I'm.
Sorry
yeah.
We
did
get
a
second
item.
Three
would
be
memorandum
zero.
Six,
eight
under
F
and
item
four
will
be
item.
One
three:
zero.
B
E
B
For
a
second
moved
in
second
to
approve
the
memo
number
127,
the
approval
of
land,
the
land
acknowledgment,
we
have
one
person
signed
up
to
speak
nope,
not
on
that
one.
No,
it's.
G
E
Yeah,
thank
you,
madam
president.
I
just
wanted
to
thank
Dr
Brian's
Administration
for
the
collaboration
and
work
that's
been
undertaken
since
the
board
passed.
The
memorandum
which
tasked
Administration
was
taking
this
step
and
I'm
looking
forward
to
any
subsequent
follow-up
administrative
regulations
that
might
be
required
to
kind
of
finalize
our
thorough
and
documented
process
for
the
use
of
the
acknowledgment
so
appreciate
it.
Thank
you.
R
R
M
S
B
E
President
I
moved
to
approve
his
team
in
random
number
132,
relocate
Alaska
native
cultural
charter
school
or
anccs
for
school
year,
23
tour.
The
administration
recommends
that
the
Anchorage
School
Board
approve
and
authorize
the
superintendent
to
relocate
anccs
from
their
current
location
at
pity.
Davis
East,
Anchorage
High
School
to
the
building
currently
serving
as
Abbott
Loop
Elementary
School.
In
addition,
the
anccs
pre-k
program
will
relocate
from
Mountain
View,
so
they
can
consolidate
education
operations.
Second,.
B
R
Thank
you,
hello.
My
name
is
Michael
Patterson
and
I'm,
a
parent
member
of
the
anccs
APC
I'm
speaking
for
myself,
I
want
to
keep
the
shirt
I
just
want
to
thank
the
school
board
and
the
administration
for
working
with
anccs
and
a
thoughtful
and
professional
manner.
I
can
generally
say
that
interacting
and
working
with
ASD
since
I've
started
working
on
the
APC
has
given
me
a
lot
of
relief
because
I
know
Anchorage.
Students
are
in
good
hands
and
I.
R
If
people
know
me
personally,
I
never
say
anything
good
about
any
municipal
government
entity
in
Anchorage.
So
it's
a
moment
you
know,
and
and
regardless
of
your
decision
tonight,
I
look
forward
to
working
with
the
school
board
and
the
administration
in
the
future
and
thank
you,
I
yield
the
rest
of
my
time.
B
E
E
Testimonies
I
did
want
to
thank
the
administration
for
first
focusing
on
Abbott
Loop
elementary
students
and
getting
that
the
transition
plan
situated
for
them
I
think
quickly
after
that
need
was
taken
care
of
moving
to
support
the
students
and
families
of
anccs.
E
It's
another
long-standing
challenge,
I
think
the
the
district
is
going
to
be
able
to
address,
which
is
heartening
and
kudos
to
the
policy
Committee
of
the
Alaska
native
cultural
Charter,
School
they've
been
dealing
with
a
lot
of
uncertainty
and
non-ideal
academic
situations
resulting
from
being
stored
upstairs
in
the
hallway
of
one
of
our
amazing
campuses,
but
it's
still
a
hallway
and
so
I'm
excited
to
see
the
positive
outcomes
that
will
occur
from
this
transition
and
I'm
fully
in
support
of
it.
Thank
you.
H
Then
member
Wilson
I
just
wanted
to
Echo.
Some
of
them
are
Jacob's
comments.
Until
you
see
the
learning
that
is
happening
in
the
constrained
space,
you
can't
really
understand
how
much
of
a
challenge
that
their
current
circumstances
are,
bringing
to
to
that
learning
environment.
H
To
that
learning
opportunity
to
to
the
play
that
should
be
taking
place
in
a
playground,
that's
fully
functional,
but
it's
kind
of
an
ad
hoc
playground
to
the
lunch
space,
so
I
I'm
eager
for
our
elasticated
cultural
Charter
students
to
have
all
the
spaces
that
they
need
and
deserve
and
again
I
do
appreciate
the
care
concern
that
has
been
focused
on
the
Abbott
Loop
students
and
I
think
that
the
five-year
timeline
is
an
appropriate
amount
of
time
to
create
a
new
path
forward
for
the
community.
B
Remember
yeah,.
T
I
I
want
to
Echo,
of
course,
the
appreciation
for
it.
This
school
is
only
a
few
blocks
away
from
me,
and
I
can
tell
you
that
the
community
council
looks
forward
to
actually
on
the
east
side
of
that
there
was
land
Parkland
and
they
had
worked
it
out
that
they
were
going
to
fence
it
in
put
in
some
fruit
trees
and
some
other
stuff
for
students
to
be
engaged
in.
That's
how
strongly
supportive
the
the
community
is
there
of
this
coming
in.
T
So
this
is
win-win-win
and
what's
most
important
is
win
for
the
kids
they're
going
into
a
safe
environment
location
not
going
to
some
place.
That's
not
doesn't
meet
the
standards
they're
going
into
a
community,
that's
really
looking
forward
to
receiving
them.
They
don't
want
to
see
the
school
closed.
They
like
this
a
lot
and
then
they're,
looking
at
a
partnership
to
make
this
school
really
something
special
for
the
kids
with
that
with
that
extra
land
that
the
park
has
there
right
by
the
creek
and
they
they
got
plans
for
that.
T
Today,
I,
like
the
attitude
and
the
approach
we
got
to
hold
people
accountable,
but
I
appreciate
the
idea.
We
want
all
kids,
and
that
includes
the
charter
schools
to
be
in
safe
schools
and
it
means
a
lot.
So
thank
you,
superintendent
and.
N
So
I
won't
repeat
much
of
what
I
heard,
which
is
very
positive
and
I
appreciate
that
from
the
other
school
board
members
but
I've
had
the
opportunity
to
tour
anccs
multiple
times,
and
one
thing
that
stuck
out
to
me
was
what
they
really
enjoy
or
will
enjoy.
Is
the
opportunity
to
do
the
outdoor
cultural
learning
activities
that
they
they
haven't
been
able
to
really
enjoy
in
the
space
that
they're
in
so
I'm
very
excited
about
that?
N
For
them
they
they
really
missed
some
of
those
opportunities
and
those
opportunities
for
community
members
to
come
in
and
show
those
students,
those
cultural
activities
outdoors
so
I'm
super
excited
that
they'll
have
that
space
back.
Thank.
I
I,
as
was
stated,
the
the
current
situation
for
that
charter
school
is
not
ideal
for
fulfilling
its
Mission,
so
we
were
pleased
to
be
able
to
support
them
during
this
temporary
transition,
so
I
hope
eventually
they
can
find
a
permanent
home
and
fulfill
their
incredible
mission
for
years
to
come.
B
All
right
any
other
questions
or
comments,
so
the
timeline.
Do
we
have
a
timeline
on
the
move
or
is
that
something
you'll
bring
back
later.
U
You
can
answer
that
we're
going
to
do
the
bulk
of
the
move
during
Memorial
Day
weekend,
because
there's
construction
at
East
immediately
after
that
and
before
that,
so
we
have
a
short
window,
so
we're
going
to
move
only
the
items
that
need
to
be
moved
and
we've
been
working
with
the
principal
and
APC
president
for
a
number
of
months
now
on
on
finalizing
this
plan,
but
it'll
be
moved
and
they'll
be
set
up
before
school
starts.
Okay,
thank.
S
C
B
E
Madam
president
I
moved
to
approve
AST
memorandum
number
zero.
Six
eights
Award
of
Professional
Services
agreement
should
get
a
high
school
roof
replacement
and

to
approve
the
selection
of
Rim

as
the
designer
of

for

restoration
and
authorize

contract
with

Architects
for

Services
in
the
amount
of
879

dollars
for
the
purpose
of
Design
Services.
B
In
second
to
approve
memorandum:
zero,
six,
eight
member
lessons:
you
pulled
it
sure.
H
Thank
you
well,
I
think
I
understand
that
the
funds
are
available.
They
came
from
the
2019
Bond
if
I'm
correct.
It
does
strike
me
that
it
may
be
worth
tabling
this
until
we
re-engage
with
a
six-year
CIP,
which
would
be
next
fall.
According
to
my
my
general
understanding
of
our
timeline.
B
U
Yes,
so,
as
you
know,
chigiak
is
an
old
school
that
Ruff
has
been
leaking,
that
hundred
thousand
plus
square
feet
for
quite
a
number
of
years,
and
the
leaks
are
only
getting
worse
as
it
has
gone
past.
Its
life
expectancy.
It's
going
to
take
a
good
six
to
eight
months
to
get
the
design
complete
and
approved
in
order
to
start
doing
a
contract
to
repair
that
roof
or
replace
it,
hopefully,
as
early
as
the
following
summer.
So
we're
really
talking
about
damage
to
the
interior,
the
building
and
the
infrastructure.
U
I'm,
not
sure
what
the
CIP
discussion
might
be.
Unless
the
board
is
willing
to
consider
closing
a
number
of
schools
before
August
or
discussing
that
I'm,
not
I'm,
not
sure
where
I
remember
lessons
when
it
to
take
that
discussion.
H
Paper
lessons:
well,
the
intent
is
to
be
thoughtful
before
spending
eight
hundred
thousand
dollars
on
a
project
that
would
ultimately
cost
16
and
a
half
million
dollars
as
it's
the
re,
the
replacement,
given
the
tenuous
circumstances
that
I
feel
like
we
find
ourselves
in
as
a
district
right
now,
and
so
we've
got
a
lot
of
roofie.
We
have
a
lot
of
leaky,
roofs
in
the
ASE
and
I
acknowledge
the
age.
E
Yeah,
thank
you,
president.
So
I
was
hoping
to
get
a
better
understanding
of
this
funding
comes
from
a
prior
Bond.
Do
we
also
have
approved
bond
funds
to
complete
the
roof
replacement
work,
or
is
that
something
we
intend
to
bond
for
and
I'm
trying
to
pull
up
our
six-year
CIP
as
I
speak
now,
so
is
that
information
available.
U
Actually,
we
would
bond
for
that
again.
It's
going
to
take
a
significant
amount
of
time
to
come
up
with
the
design
for
this
and
then,
depending
on
what
the
cost
is
I.
Think.
Most
of
you
are
aware
now
that
when
we
do
a
rough
order
of
magnitude
cost
it's
about
25
percent,
accurate
based
off
prior
things,
and
so
estimates
for
those
can
can
be
wildly
off
from
a
65
design
or
or
higher.
U
E
U
E
Thank
you,
I
was
thinking
which
probably
was
best
with
my
mic
off
I
am
wondering
if,
if
we're
intending
to
bond
424
and
I
I,

more
in-depth
conversation
about
all
things:
Capital
improvement
in
our
CIP
and
I
think
I've
shared
this
with
Mr
Anderson
as
well.
I
think
we
need
to
Circle
back
to
it
sooner
rather
than
later.
E
E
I
think
50
once
the
moratorium
ends
and
so
I'm
hoping
to
to
re-review
that
and
see
what
we're
comfortable
with
and
so
I
guess,
I'm
wondering
if
this
can
wait
for
a
certain
period
of
time
or
if
this
is
something
that
we
really
think
needs
to
be
on
the
24
Bond
ahead
of
any
other
projects,
so
curious
about
that
too.
I
guess
right.
U
B
And
I'm
a
little
I'm
a
little
surprised,
but
at
the
same
time
it's
it's
board
members
prerogative
to
pull
whatever
items
they'd
like
even
if
I
mean
there.
I
can't
see
a
scenario
where
we're
not
going
to
repair
this
roof.
I
I
just
can't
see
it
even
if
we,
even
if
we
put
it
off
eventually
or
and
don't
even
move.
If
we
don't
use
the
building,
we
need
to
repurpose
the
building
so
I'm
struggling
with
why
this
is
coming
up
at
this
point
in
time.
E
Okay,
so
I
guess
my
question
is
regardless
of
what
the
board,
what
what
the
board
may
choose
to
discuss
regarding
the
CIP?
Is
it
going
to
be
administration's
recommendation
that
this
particular
project
be
on
the
2024
bond?
Is
it
that
urgent
of
a
project.
V
Expensive,
okay,
you
hear
me.
Okay,
all
right.
This
project
was
bonded
for
the
design
as
part
of
after
the
earthquake.
All
of
our
schools
had
what
was
called
the
tier
one.
Seismic
evaluation
done
when
this
was
all
roof
projects
now
for
the
last
three
years,
have
also
had
tier
twos
done,
which
goes
into
depth
of
anything.
That's
that
we
find
also,
we
have
what's
called
we
check
for
over
stress
and
any
drift
issues.
V
And
therefore,
it's
such
that
my
recommendation
is
to
move
it
to
the
2024
Bond
so
that
as
soon
as
we
get
the
design
done,
we
would,
in
the
late
summer,
of
2024
put
it
out
to
bid
so
that
contract
bidding
through
contract
and
notice
to
proceed
is
about
three
months.
V
Therefore,
if
any
steel
has
to
be
ordered,
delivered
and
be
available,
it
would
be
so
that
we
can
in
fact
get
this
done
during
the
summer
construction
season,
while
school's
not
in
session.
H
U
We
have
not
made
the
new
CIP,
there
will
be
multiple
changes
from
the
CIP.
The
board
saw
last
fall
to
the
CIP
that
you
will
see
next
fall.
Some
of
those
changes
will
be
not
putting
on
automatically
rebuilding
schools
but
going
towards
you
know:
refurbishing
the
schools
or
renewals
some
of
the
other
things
the
board's
been
talking
about
and
then
there'll
be
some
other
other
changes
in
timelines
chess
based
off
what
we've
seen
with
some
of
these
engineer
studies
of
the
buildings
in
the
past
six
months.
U
So
we
do
plan
on
building
a
brief
to
show
the
board.
So
we
can
talk
through
what
is
the
new
methodology
going
forward
in
the
development
of
a
CIP
go
through
with
the
board
to
talk
through
what
are
the
metrics
that
are
being
used
to
prioritize
and
what
do
they
actually
mean?
And
so,
when
you
see
the
CIP
as
it
starts
developing,
it
won't
be
a
surprise.
U
I
think
all
of
us
have
looked
at
the
spreadsheet
and
looked
at
it
over
a
six-year
period
and
gone
down
and
and
done
that,
but
but
we'll
also
have
some
different
visuals
to
try
to
show
that
project
as
it
goes
through
its
life
cycle
on
buildings
or
types
of
buildings,
whether
it's
the
five
prototypicals
from
the
90s
or
the
the
eight
prototypicals
from
the
80s,
those
things
that
are
really
groups
and
chunks
of
like
type
buildings
that
are
all
ultimately
going
to
need.
Something
similar.
U
M
U
B
Seeing
them
the
motion
is
to
approve
zero
six
eight.
M
S
B
E
President
I
moved
to
approve
the
SD
memorandum
number
one:
three:
zero
approval
of
funding
allocations
of
major
maintenance,
Capital
Improvement
Grant
funds
recommended
actions
to
improve
and
authorize
the
allocation
of
5.32
million
from
the
State's
Department
of
Education
Capital
Improvement
major
maintenance,
Grant
award
funds
towards
Safety
and
Security
projects
across
the
district.
Second
moved.
H
Yeah
I
think
there's
a
lot
of
really
well
I
appreciate
the
memo.
It's
a
response
to
a
lot
of
conversations
that
took
place
in
the
fall.
You
know,
given
what
I
think
that
I
heard
about
a
lot
of
other
leaky,
roofs,
I,
guess
I
was
curious
about
the
immediacy
of
fire
alarm
panels.
Sound
really
important,
but
you
know
so
are
a
lot
of
the
groups
that
we
saw:
photos
of
with
offices,
classrooms,
work
rooms,
totally
disrupted
and
un.
H
U
Oh
sure,
I
can
talk
through
that,
so
fire
alarm
panels
are
absolutely
required.
These
are
outdated,
they're
no
longer
maintained
or
they
are
maintained
as
best
we
can,
but
you
can't
get
parts
that
can't
be
upgraded
and
let's
go
back
to
Abbott
Loop
that
didn't
have
a
fire
suppression
system.
The
reason
the
fire
marshal,
let
us
still
occupy
that
facility
is
because
it
had
an
enhanced
fire
alarm
system.
U
If
there's
a
fire
inside
a
wall
like
happened
at
Aquarian
and
and
fortunately
they
had
a
fire
fire
alarm
that
that
picked
it
up,
even
though
the
fire
suppression
system
didn't
go
off
because
there
wasn't
heat
and
Flames
it's
a
requirement,
and
if
you
upgrade
it,
if
you
replace
it
now,
the
ADA
rules
have
changed
in
the
last
many
decades
where
it
also
has
to
be
voice
activated.
So
it
can't
just
replace
it
one.
We
can't
repair
them
two.
If
you
replace
it,
it
has
to
be
ADA
Compliant.
T
S
M
B
Moving
on
to
item
G
are
non-action
items.
They
will
come
back
before
us
at
our
next
meeting.
H
is
we
don't
have
any
other
additional
public
comment,
so
that
brings
us
to
I
superintendent's
update.
I
Thank
you,
madam
president,
good
evening,
ASD
Borden,
Community
I'll,
keep
my
comments
brief.
Tonight.
The
administration
is
preparing
to
manage
quite
a
few
positive
changes
over
the
next
several
months,
including
shifting
to
a
new
Ela
curriculum
for
K3
and
laying
the
groundwork
for
moving
sixth
grade
to
Middle.
School
in
24-25
will
also
now
be
supporting
anccs
with
their
relocation
to
the
Abbott
Loop
facility,
while
the
intent
is
for
this
relocation
to
be
temporary.
This
move
will
support
the
school
in
fulfilling
its
Mission
and
we're
happy
to
support
in
that
effort.
I
We'll
also
continue
to
support
Abbott
Loop
students
and
families
with
having
an
intentional
transition
to
their
new
schools
next
year.
Looking
ahead
to
our
next
board
meeting
we'll
have
a
number
of
major
decisions
to
make,
including
a
possible
adjustment
to
school
start
times
and
district-wide
professional
learning
communities.
I
These
are
major
decisions
that
would
impact
all
families
and
the
Greater
Community,
and
we're
happy
to
provide
information
to
the
board
over
the
next
couple
of
weeks
to
inform
your
decision
and,
lastly,
I
want
to
recognize
the
school
business
Partnerships,
who
coordinate
at
a
great
luncheon
at
King,
Tech
High
last
week
to
recognize
incredible
businesses
who
support
our
students.
I
had
the
privilege
of
selecting
Mr
Rich
Owens
for
the
superintendent
award,
who
has
been
incredible
leader.
I
B
H
Going
to
ask
them
in
one
sentence:
are
our
curricular
materials
for
the
ELA
adoption
on
on
track?
Are
they
going
to
be
on
the
boat
on
time
to
get
here
when
we
need
them,
and
what
is
the
curricular
framework
going
to
be
for
summer
school,
which
is
sort
of
awkwardly
positioned
between
an
outgoing
curriculum
and
an
incoming
curriculum?
Okay,.
I
Great
questions
that
I
do
not
know
offhand
I'll
give
my
team
an
opportunity
to
see
if
they
know
offhand.
If
not,
we
can
put
that
easily
in
board
connect
by
Friday.
H
Are
you
know
we
are
we
on
track
through
things
and
does
it
seem
like
our
teachers
will
get
them
in
a
timely
fashion
and
then
what
will
the
summer
school
I?
Guess
that
sort
of
early
learning
framework
be?
Will
it
be
continuing
with
what
we
have
or
will
you
know
things
show
up
before
the
June
start
time
and
then
be
implemented?
At
that
point?
Thank.
B
B
S
President
I
remain
concerned
that
some
of
the
public
testimony
identifying
some
of
the
books
appearing
in
some
of
our
school
libraries
may
put
us
in
violation
of
state
law
and
I'm
hoping
the
administration
is
doing
a
thorough
examination
of
that
issue
and
that's
my
comment
for
tonight.
T
Well,
my
last
go-boy
meeting
I
was
in
Orlando
with
the
National
School
Board
Association
I
have
to
say
there
were
two
three
sessions
that
really
set
me
off.
It
really
just
had
me
focused
one
was
just
what
are
the
what
they're
doing
a
study
on
correlations
to
decide
what
makes
it,
what
what
factors
make
a
difference
on
effective
School
boards,
and
that
is
in
the
early
part
of
the
study.
But
it's
going
to
be
real
interesting
when
we
see
the
results
of
it.
So
that's
video,
you
can
look
at
it.
T
It's
difficult
for
me
to
do
a
whole
lot
of
conclusions
on
it.
Yet
they
presented
a
lot
of
information,
but
it
was
being
presented
in
a
developmental
stage,
and
so
there
was
still
some
questions
in
there.
It
was
interesting
because
they
had
you
know
they
got
to
the
issue
of
low
performing
students
and
you've
got
within
I.
Think
the
number
of
the
school
districts
they
had
Native
Americans
were
at
the
top
and
the
other
ones
it
was
African-Americans
at
the
top.
It
was.
T
It
was
interesting
because
these
These
are
significant
schools
to
do
that
and
I
was
just
surprised.
I'm
saying
wait
a
minute:
you
know
this
is
they're
putting
things
together
that
is
challenging
the
the
the
questions
the
second
session
I
went
to.
They
asked
the
question:
what's
chat,
GPT
and
I
had
no
idea
what
that
was,
and
probably
20
percent
of
the
members.
There
may
have
known
what
it
was
and
when
you
got
to
understand
the
artificial
intelligence
components
of
it,
what
it's
doing
it
was
challenging.
How
are
we
going
to
change
education?
T
How
do
we
prepare
kids
when
you
have
the
the
what
artificial
intelligence
is
looking
like
it's
performing
and
how
quickly
it's
being
implemented
and-
and
that
was
an
interesting
discussion,
but
the
last
one
was
one
of
the
two
people
behind
artificial
intelligence
gave
a
presentation
and
they
had
it
in
2010.
Steve
Jobs
wanted
to
buy
it.
They
said
no
in
six
months
later,
he
tried
again
and
told
them
how
make
a
big
difference,
so
they
finally
did
but
they're.
Looking
at
this
thing,
it's
it's
such
a
unbelievably
growth
standpoint.
How
quickly
is
growing
you?
T
The
internet
was
a
10-year-like
duration.
This
thing,
you
know
is,
is
multiplying
times,
10
the
the
size
of
it
and
the
effectiveness
of
it
in
two
months
is
going
through
the
ceiling.
You've
got
large
I.T
groups,
because
reducing
staff-
and
you
got
other
things-
Google
just
paid
10
billion
for
the
for
a
for
the
AI
components
that
they
bought.
But
their
capability
is
unreal.
They're,
saying
rapidly
this
year,
looking
at
things
exceeding
everything
they
can
capture
and
put
everything.
T
He
gave
an
example
where
he
said:
I
wanted
to
see
a
a
scary
face
with
a
bowl
of
noodles
and
wool.
He
didn't
know
what
that
would
look
like
and
the
computer
put
together
one.
It
was
a
bowl
with
a
little
a
little
bit
of
noodles
at
the
bottom,
looked
more
like
a
chain.
It
had
a
wall
across
the
eyes
and
like
a
like
a
mask
and
two
eyes,
it
was
interesting,
but
the
computer
created
that
without
any
reference,
it's
creating
itself
the
new
things
and
it's
just
scary.
T
What's
out
there
I,
don't
know
how
to
prepare
kids
for
when
they're
going
to
graduate
now
I
mean
I'm.
Looking
at
that
saying,
and
that
was
part
of
the
discussion
in
there,
we
really
focus
on
what
needs
to
be
taught
for
schools
and
they
are
challenging
that
thing
at
the
high
level
and
it's
appropriate.
T
If
you
want
a
a
book
comparison,
you
want
to
book
report,
you
want
850
Awards,
you
want
it
at
a
sixth
grade
level.
You
want
it
to
be
humorous,
you
want
this,
it
will
print
it
for
you.
My
wife
had
to
go
and
check
it
out
and
said.
Okay
I've
got
a
husband,
this
age
and
he's
entp
and
he's
ADHD.
What
is
he
gonna
like
doing?
T
He
gave
a
list
and
it
looked
like
it
was
a
perfect
match
that
was
kind
of
scary
to
me,
but
the
creativity
part,
the
things
what
they're
saying
is.
We
need
a
better
focus
on
them
being
able
to
know
how
to
ask
what
it
is
that
you
want
more
less
than
doing
it.
Low
level
skills
are
going
to
be
a
higher
priority.
T
Well,
that's
kind
of
interesting
assessment
of
it,
but
the
the
growth
of
this
like
the
internet,
like
is
like
this
and
so
I
thought
we
were
dealing
with
20
years
from
now
we're
not
even
dealing
with
20
months
from
now.
It's
that
it's
here
today
and
I,
don't
know
what
we
should
be
doing
from
an
educational
standpoint
at
this
time
to
respond
to
help
kids
be
prepared
for
something
like
this
and
I
just
hope.
We
get
really
a
good
Focus
type.
T
Boob
I've
got
a
National
School
Board
Association,
that's
going
to
be
heavily
focused
on
this,
but
this
this
outcome
is
a
game
changer
and
the
bad
news
is
it
kept
me.
Awake
is
I.
Remember,
Stephen
Hawkins
came
out
with
a
list
of
10
things
that
will
likely
be
the
cause
of
the
in-demand.
You
know
the
the
asteroid,
of
course
right.
The
biological
and
one
of
the
ten
was
AI.
T
Artificial
intelligence
would
be
one
of
the
10
ways
that
man
could
be
wiped
out
a
little
bit
like
Terminator
and
everything
else,
but
whatever
he
put
it
in
the
top
ten,
and
this
thing
how
what
he's
going
to
do
is
kind
of
interesting,
so
I
just
proposed
that
everybody
just
take
a
well
I,
don't
know
we're
gonna
have
to
talk
about
it
and
think
about
it,
but
somehow
it's
going
to
take
a
big
movement
to
go
in
that
direction.
Thank
you.
G
H
H
Okay,
all
right
right:
we
we
don't
want
students
to
rely
on
it
as
that
crutch
to
produce
the
150
word.
Essay
and
I
do
think.
It's
fundamentally
important
that
we
think
about
how
do
we
get
our
students
to
ask
the
questions
of
tomorrow
to
get
ahead
of
this
because
they
have
a
very
different
feature
ahead
of
them
than
graduates
of
5
or
10
or
20
or
30
years
ago?
H
So
I'm
glad
that
you
had
a
strong
conversation
about
chat,
GPT,
okay,
so
I
I'll,
just
keep
going
I
recently
attended,
asd's
gifted
mentorship
celebration
right
here
in
this
room
with
50
some
odd
students,
they're
mentors.
It
was
really
an
extraordinary
example
of
partnership.
These
students
are
working
with
community
Professionals
for
four
or
five
months,
they're
shadowing
they
are
they're,
doing
the
Dirty
Work
and
veterinary
offices
and
labor
and
delivery
rooms
and
in
astronomy
Labs.
It's
a
really
remarkable
celebration
of
that
partnership.
H
I
also
had
the
privilege
of
speaking
at
the
large
group
Orchestra
event
performance.
There
was
an
adjudicator
who
was
invited
to
help
students
from
Chugiak
Eagle
River
service
unless
get
some
really
fabulous
feedback
on
their
performances
and
I.
H
Also
appreciate
the
board
support,
as
they
traveled
to
Juno
last
week
on
behalf
of
ASD,
to
really
share
information
with
our
legislators
about
asd's
laser
focus
on
our
goals
to
suggest
some
possible
scenarios
of
different
funding
possibilities
and
I
really
spoke
with
individuals
on
a
one-to-one
basis
on
the
importance
of
trust
and
I
think
it
was
a
really
good
conversation.
H
I
also
got
delayed
there
from
Russian
volcanic
ash
and
one
of
the
upsides
was
that
I
got
to
watch
Thunderbird
ukulele
from
Betty
Davis
East
High
School
open
at
the
Alaska
Folk
Festival
on
Saturday
evening,
and
they
got
a
standing
ovation
and
did
a
fabulous
job.
H
E
Thank
you,
madam
president,
for
not
making
me
follow
the
appointment
marks
of
member
Higgins
I
wanted
to
start
with
something
a
bit
more
mundane
and
mentioned
that
earlier
this
month,
I
had
the
privilege
of
I'm,
seeing
a
a
orchestra
concert
at
Bartlett
High
School.
There
were
students
from
gruning,
Romig,
Wendler,
Mirror,
Lake
and
mirrors
present,
and
it
was
a
privilege
to
watch
them.
E
Perform
I
didn't
realize
before
attending
how
many
and
there
were
dozens
of
Staff
involved
with
the
production
of
the
event
and
so
learning
more
about
how
much
time
and
dedication
it
took
to
what
that
depends
on
was
really
humbling.
So
congratulations
to
all
those
students
and
thank
you
for
the
staff
and
families
for
making
that
possible.
E
E
It
was
heartening
to
see
the
extra
supports
that
our
district
provides
to
military
children
and
the
challenges
that
that
they
navigate
through
their
K-12
journey,
in
addition
to
our
families.
So
congratulations
there
and
then
wanted
to
give
a
special
shout
out
to
Mr
fleckenstein
and
his
it
team.
E
This
weekend
there
was
some
uncertainty
as
member
lessons
mentioned,
about
staff
being
well,
the
legislators
actually
being
able
to
return
home,
and
there
were
a
number
of
constituent,
Outreach
events
and
testimony
opportunities,
and
there
was
an
event
at
Chester
Valley
this
weekend
that
was
scheduled
to
occur
and
Rit
team
stepped
in
and
prepared
a
contingency
plan
to
allow
Representatives
rights
mirrors
and
Senator
Wilkowski
to
be
able
to
connect
with
their
constituents.
Should
the
most
unfortunate
situation
occur.
E
They
had
a
alternative
plan
ready
to
utilize
the
school
for
their
Zoom
needs
in
an
instant,
and
so
we
we
have
a
great
team.
We
knew
that,
and
so,
but
thank
you
Dr
Brian
for
supporting
them
and
appreciate
Mike
everything
you
folks
do
in
your
work.
So
those
are
my
remarks.
Thank
you,
madam
president.
Thank.
N
Of
working
with
Rich
Owens
for
many
years
and
he's
been
extremely
committed
to
ASD
students
and
as
far
as
hiring
many
of
them
as
well
in
his
business,
so
I'm
super
excited
that
that
you
had
the
opportunity
to
recognize
him
as
he
moves
into
retirement,
which
is
very
exciting
for
him
as
well.
N
I
want
to
recognize
our
fantastic
MC
at
that
event.
Mj.
He
did
an
amazing
job
and
thank
you
to
the
board
members
that
had
the
opportunity
to
attend.
I
know
everybody
wanted
to,
but
we
all
have
really
busy
schedules,
so
that
was
that
was
lots
of
fun.
I
really
enjoyed
that
I
also
had
the
opportunity
to
tour
the
Dome
I've
got
a.
We
all
got
an
invitation
to
come
to
tour
of
the
Dome.
N
There
was
I
went
on
a
Saturday
and
boy.
The
parking
was
really
difficult
to
find
a
spot
because
we
had
so
many
of
our
ASD
students
there
running
track.
There
was,
it
was
just
it
was
plumpful
with
with
students
and
as
a
mom
who,
as
a
parent,
who
paid
for
their
kids
to
play
comp
soccer
I'm,
really
happy
that
the
many
of
our
students
have
the
opportunity
through
ASD
to
use
those
facilities
and
enjoy
lots
of
the
experiences
that
they
get
to
through
their
athletic
programs.
Here,
which
is
very
cool.
N
Also
I
wanted
to
recognize
that
at
the
school
Business
Partnership
luncheon
the
last
there
was
Alaska
native
dance
group
from
Windler
middle
school,
so
we
had
students
middle
school
students
performing.
We
had
students
from
hanshu
middle
school
that
were
assisting
at
that
program.
They
were
extremely
well
spoken.
I
was
very
impressed
with
those
students
and
then
our
King
Tech,
culinary
class
staff
and
students
served
a
wonderful
meal,
so
they
always
do
a
phenomenal
job
there
and
have
amazing
customer
service
skills.
N
So
thank
you
to
them
as
well
also
wanted
to
share
that
it's
graduation
season
and
if
you'd
like
to
show
your
senior
Pride
ASD
is
once
again
producing
yard
signs
to
honor
our
graduates
and
there's
more
information
on
the
website.
If
you
want
any
of
any
of
those
signs
to
to
put
out
to
honor,
our
graduates
and
I
have
been
informed
that
ESD
will
be
doing
an
attendance
campaign
next
year.
N
I
know
that
was
part
of
the
discussion
earlier
on,
and
we've
partnered
with
jber
to
keep
hosting
the
Purple
Heart
schools
event,
which
is
great
I.
Thank
you
for
remember,
Jacobs
for
attending
that
event
as
well.
Our
next
board
meeting
is
May
9th
and
please
join
us.
We're
going
to
have
our
annual
Denali
awards
at
that
board
meeting
and
our
next
communication
meeting
is
going
to
be
next
Thursday
April
27th
at
I
think
we're
at
noon.
I
believe
we're
new
yep.
B
L
M
And
I'll
say
the
next
governance
committee
meeting
will
be
right
out
said
immediately
following
the
the
communications
committee
meeting,
I
had
a
Alaska
Association
of
school
boards
board
meeting,
which
caused
me
to
miss
the
middle
school
debate
championships,
but
they
are
back
on
they're
happening.
It's
an
incredible
event.
M
If
you
ever
get
the
chance
to
go,
it
is,
is
an
awesome
event
that
heavily
promoted
and
pushed
by
Mr
Johnson
from
UAA,
and
our
our
high
school
teams
work
on
it
really
hard
because
they
want
practice
middle
school
students
coming
to
their
high
school.
So
they
can
continue
their
dominance.
It's
a
winning
strategy,
it's,
but
it
turns
out
to
be
a
lot
of
community
service
as
well.
They
do
a
terrific
job
with
it.
M
I'll
also
say
a
friend
of
mine
related
to
me
just
recently
he
retired
last
year,
but
is
subbing
back
in
the
same
school,
which
is
fun
because
you
still
know
some
of
the
students
and
and
you're
very
familiar
with
everything.
M
He
was
working
with
a
group
of
students,
they're
not
strong
writers,
but
they
had
an
assignment
to
write
a
thank
you
letter
about
something,
and
he
said
one
in
particular
was
just
incredibly
well
done,
just
just
a
really
well
written
and
expressive,
and
when
he
commented
to
the
student,
how
impressed
he
was
with
it,
students
said
well,
I
use
chat,
GPT
to
to
write
it
and
there.
M
There
are
interesting
thing
that
another
graduate
from
our
system
that
works
with
drones
and
files,
federal
grants
to
repair
rural
airfields
as
chat
GPT,
set
up
on
its
own
server
and
used
it
to
write
a
Federal
Grant,
and
he
said
it's
reading
off
of
his
data.
M
M
There's
there's
going
to
be
a
huge
demand
for
it,
as
people
began
begin
to
understand
how
it
can
be
used
for
things
that
we
previously
did
not
think
about
being
automated,
but
but
it's
there.
So
it
is,
it
is
going
to
change
education.
M
We
thought
pocket
calculators
were
evil
this.
This
is
going
to
be
a
lot
worse,
especially
as
things
keep
getting
smaller
and
smaller,
and
things
happen.
I
did
spend
a
few
days
in
Juneau.
Also,
all
of
mine
were
intentional.
Unlike
member
lessons,
we've
got
some
really
strong
allies
and
I
would
urge
everybody
that
supports
public
education
and
all
of
our
board
members.
M
Please
do
find
time
to
testify
if
we're
testifying
to
groups
that
are
pushing
force
like
Senate
Finance,
they
need
the
public
comment
to
back
them
up,
and
if
there
are
groups
that
are
trying
to
hold
us
back,
they
need
to
hear
from
us
as
well,
so
that
everything
is
balanced.
M
There
was
a
lot
of
positive
energy
in
the
building
and
there's
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
good
stuff
happening
down
there,
but
it's
really
unpredictable
what
the
outcomes
are
going
to
be,
but
very
interesting
and
entertaining
trip,
and
for
anyone
that
did
see
my
picture
in
the
newspaper
I
had
been
outside
in
the
rain,
and
my
hair
is
thinning,
but
it
looked
a
lot
worse
in
that
picture.
D
The
only
thing
I
had
to
say
is
well
okay,
two
things
it
is
prom
season,
so
member
Wilson,
South
Prom
was
at
change
point
on
Saturday,
so
that
might
have
explained
some
of
your
parking
issues,
but
yeah
super
excited
to
see.
I
know,
we've
had
a
couple
successful,
Proms
and
the
rest
of
them
to
follow
and
last
meeting.
Our
next
meeting
will
be
my
last
one.
So
after
that,
I
will
no
longer
be
an
ASD
student.
So
after
that
it
will
go
over
to
Josh.
D
B
Right
and
we
are
excited
to
have
Josh
but
we're
heartbroken,
but
you're,
leaving
us
okay,
so
I
I,
just
want
to
thank
I
just
want
to
make
a
couple
of
comments
one.
This
is
the
most.
B
Obviously,
the
funniest
board
I've
ever
worked
on
number
two,
the
most
active
in
terms
of
advocacy,
I,
don't
know,
remember
lessons.
This
is
this
is
her
other
full-time
job
advocacy
and.
B
Sometimes
good
sometimes
well,
we
have
to
pull
her
off,
but
that's
good.
That's
good
and
I
want
to
thank
her
and
a
member
Holloman
for
dropping
everything
going
to
Juno
to
represent
our
44
000
plus
students,
their
families
and
our
5
000
employees,
because
that's
what
it's
going
to
take.
I
also
want
to
thank
the
superintendent
and
the
staff
for
answering
all
of
the
questions.
I
mean
I,
get
them
and
then
I
need
to
some
I
can
answer
right
away.
B
Others,
it's
kind
of
like
I,
don't
want
it
to
be
used
in
the
wrong
way.
So
let
me
get
I
have
to
call
a
friend,
and
so,
whenever
I've
called
a
friend,
be
it
the
superintendent
or
anybody
on
that
wall.
I
have
gotten
a
response,
so
I
appreciate
that
and
then
finally
I
just
we
are
going
to
Miss
Ellie,
but
we
are
also.
B
This
is
this
whole
thing
is
about
continuous
Improvement,
so
when
one
door
closes
another
one
opens
and
we're
we're
going
we're
hoping
that
yeah
as
you
enter
college,
and
did
you
hear
back
from
that
other
award
yet
not
yet
okay,
end
of
the
month?
Okay!
So
next
meeting,
hopefully
all
right
so
I'll,
keep
it
a
surprise
and
with
that
I
will
not
lead
with
member
Higgins
again,
because
when
he
said
his
wife.
B
I
thought
I
would
die,
I'm
still
dying
anyway.
That's
it!
That's
all
I
have
for
tonight,
but
anyway,
thank
you
guys
and
we
can
move
Twitter.
