A
C
Good
evening
today
is
Tuesday
May
23rd
we'd,
like
to
welcome
everyone
to
our
board.
Meeting
agendas
are
at
the
door
as
you
come
in
or
you
can
pull
it
up
online
board.
Members
present
in
the
boardroom.
We
have
members
Wilson
lessons,
Jacobs
Holloman,
Higgins,
Donnelly
and
Bellamy.
We
also
have
Dr
Bryant
our
superintendent,
our
executive
assistant,
Amanda
Foster.
C
C
We
also
have
several
senior
staff
that
are
that
are
available
this
evening.
So
with
that
roll
call.
Please
join
me
for
the
pledge.
Please
stand.
C
We
acknowledge
that
we
gather
here
today
on
the
traditional
lands
of
the
the
nine
of
people
of
the
upper
cook
inlets
for
thousands
of
years.
The
the
nine
of
people
have
been
and
continue
to
be.
The
stewards
of
this
land
ASD
is
committed
to
diversity
and
inclusion,
and
it
is
with
honor
and
respect
that
we
recognize
all
indigenous
people
who
live
and
learn
in
our
community.
F
C
Moved
by
member
Jacobs
second
by
member
Holloman,
to
approve
the
agenda
as
it
is
written,
is
there
any
opposition
to
the
approval
of
the
agenda,
seeing
no
opposition?
The
agenda
is
approved
now
for
our
opening
statement.
We
do
want
to
thank
everyone
for
being
here.
We
welcome
you
to
our
board
meeting
and
we
want
to
thank
you
for
continuing
to
support
the
school
board
with
your
time,
your
talents
and
your
tax
dollars.
C
It's
a
partnership
that
we
can't
do.
We
can't
do
what
we
do
without
the
support
of
our
community.
C
H
Thank
you,
madam
president,
so
our
first
of
two
technical
presentations
tonight
will
cover
reading
proficiency,
so
we
can
go
to
the
next
slide.
H
So
you'll
see
on
this
slide.
It
states
that
the
goal
of
increasing
reading
proficiency
to
20
to
80
by
May
2026
and
one
of
the
interim
goals
we
monitor
is
increasing
the
percent
of
reading
proficiency
via
the
fast
Bridge
screener
before
the
community's
awareness
we're
in
a
transitional
period
with
our
goal
monitoring
reporting,
because
the
state
adopted
a
new
assessment
called
the
AK
star
and
also
supports
a
new
literacy,
screener
called
m-class,
so
some
slides
will
display
historical
fast
merch
data
and
others
will
show
the
most
current
data
from
M
class
next
slide.
H
So
this
slide
shows
our
fast
bridge
data
over
time.
The
solid
line
on
the
graph
describes,
reading
proficiency
rates
and
the
dotted
lines
represents
the
yearly
Target.
The
table
graphically
shows
the
data
and
breaks
down
progress
by
fall
winter
and
spring
and
spring
2023,
as
you'll
see
on
the
chart,
is
when
we
transition
to
a
new
screener
called
m-class.
H
H
All
right,
oh
actually
go
back.
I
apologies,
so
this
slide
describes
how
m-class
data
is
reported
out
to
families
to
keep
them
aware
of
their
students.
Progress
during
our
goal.
Monitoring
discussion
in
June
we'll
be
prepared
to
discuss
your
questions
about
how
performance
is
measured
on
the
new
screener,
as
there
will
be
differences
in
how
proficiency
is
measured
on
the
tool.
The
graphic
that
you'll
notice
on
this
slide
provides
some
insight
in
advance
of
our
discussion
in
June.
H
This
slide
compares
the
differences
of
our
previous
screener
measures
to
the
m-class
screener
measures.
This
new
screener
means
we'll
have
a
new
Baseline
for
interim
goal.
1.1
and
the
new
tool
allows
us
to
understand
and
measure
Proficiency
in
a
different
way.
That
can
be
a
component
of
our
discussion
in
June
as
well.
H
So
now
that
we've
implemented
m-class
in
Spring
2023,
this
slide
shows
the
new
Baseline
in
relation
to
the
interim
proficiency
goal.
So
this
is
m-class
data.
The
chart
also
States
the
distance
from
next
year's
Target
goal
of
67
percent.
H
H
H
And
the
next
few
slides
give
details
on
the
state
of
implementation
next
slide,
so
this
slide
shows
the
relation
or
sorry
the
sled.
This
slide
shows
the
relationship
between
professional
development,
instruction
and
multi-tiered
systems
of
support
and
meeting
the
goal,
and
this
slide
shows
the
status
of
implementation
across
the
five
strategic
pillars,
which
include
curriculum
instruction,
professional
learning,
data
and
multi-tiered
systems
of
support.
H
H
And
this
Slide
disaggregates,
the
map
data
by
student
subpopulations
and
the
bottom
of
the
chart
describes
how
many
schools
fall
in
each
category
of
proficiency.
H
C
Thank
you,
Dr
Bryant,
so
board
members,
you
have
two
technical
reports
as
you
get
your
questions
together,
please
send
them
in
to
Amanda
or
if
you
would
rather
just
bring
them
with
you
when
you
come
to
the
next
board
meeting,
but
we
will
be
doing
two
conversations,
two
separate
conversations
at
our
next
meeting
so
with
that
that
brings
us
to
item
D,
which
is
our
public
comments
period.
C
We
are
happy
that
you
are
joining
us
today.
This
is
your.
If
this
is
your
first
time
there
is
a
list
of
rules
to
Aid
you
in
navigating
the
decorum
for
the
boardroom
during
public
comment,
we
do
set
aside
the
first
part
of
the
public
comment
period
for
students.
C
Excuse
me,
this
is
the
Public's
time
to
speak
and
the
board's
time
to
listen
comments
on
non-agenda
may
be
made
on
non-agenda
items,
non-action
items.
If
you
are
here
to
participate,
you
will
have
three
minutes
to
speak
time.
Permitting
each
person
will
have
three
minutes
to
speak.
Each
person
has
allowed
one
opportunity
to
testify
on
a
non-agenda
or
non-action
item
when
30
seconds
remain.
A
bill
will
ring
to
inform
you
that
you
can
finish
your
sentence.
C
So
during
public
comment,
the
as
chair
I
will
be
using
the
Robert's
Rules
of
Order,
which
is
a
historical
framework
for
conducting
a
business
in
a
very
civil
and
respectful
manner.
C
C
We
ask
that
you
refrain
from
disturbing
the
meeting,
which
really
means
no
cheering
Applause
or
outbursts.
I
have
to
remember
that
myself,
sometimes
attendees
will
not
be
permitted
to
interrupt
the
business
of
the
board.
No
profanity
or
foul
language,
there's
no
place
in
our
public
meeting
for
profanity
or
swearing,
no
waving
of
signs
or
flyers
or
posters.
But
if
you
do
have
handouts
that
you
wish
to
share,
you
may
give
them
to
miss
Foster
and
she
will
make
sure
every
board
member
gets
one.
C
So
with
that
as
a
board
president,
it
is
my
duty
to
enforce
the
Rules
of
Civility
and
decorum,
as
such
speakers
may
be,
ruled
out
of
order
for
violation
of
these
rules.
Anyone
who
does
not
adhere
to
these
rules
and
fails
to
conduct
themselves
in
a
civil
manner
may
be
removed
from
the
meeting.
So
with
that
guidance,
we
would
like
to
begin
our
first
hour
of
public
comment.
J
Good
evening
my
name
is
Carla
Hollingsworth
I
go
by
Kai
and
I
am
a
lifelong
Alaskan
graduate
of
ASD
I'm.
Also
an
employee,
but
I
am
not
speaking
as
an
employee.
Tonight
I
am
speaking
as
a
citizen
and
as
a
parent,
particularly
a
parent
of
a
stellar
student
I'm
here
on
behalf
of
the
Stellar
parent
group
tonight,
to
present
a
letter
from
our
community
to
the
school
board.
J
It
runs
on
the
energy
and
excitement
of
people
who
have
committed
themselves
to
self-directed
learning,
with
the
support
of
parents
and
staff
that
attempts
to
provide
students
with
a
Humane
education
based
on
freedom
and
responsibility.
This
is
an
excerpt
from
the
seller
philosophy,
which
was
developed
by
staff
students
and
parents
together.
J
J
We
have
high
expectations
of
ASD
teachers
that
they
will
utilize
materials
in
their
classes
that
are
appropriate
and
challenging,
covering
a
wide
variety
of
perspectives.
We
support
student
access
to
age,
appropriate
literature,
reflecting
the
diversity
of
our
student
body,
which
includes
students
of
different
religions,
races,
socioeconomic
classes,
gender
identities
and
sexual
orientations.
We
appreciate
that
there
is
a
process
that
the
Anchorage
community
members
can
use
to
respectfully
challenge
specific
books
if
they
feel
there
is
a
controversial
concern
for
their
students.
J
We
know
that
it
takes
courage,
patience
and
hard
work
on
everyone's
part
to
give
students
opportunities
to
develop
responsible
freedom.
We
extend
our
support
to
all
Stellar
students,
the
excellent
teachers
staff,
principal
and
parents,
as
we
continue
this
journey
of
building
a
learning
community
together.
J
C
K
My
name
is
Robin
Patrol
I
have
to
talk
fast,
dear
board,
members
I
received
an
email
from
someone
in
the
superintendent's
office
on
May
15th.
In
response
to
my
request
that
suits
me
given
reading
lists
over
the
summer,
I
stated
that
it
would
be
a
dereliction
of
Duty
not
to
give
students,
especially
those
with
the
504
plan
or
slower
readers.
This
opportunity
I
still
believe
this
was
the
perfect
moment
to
engage
students
and
parents
in
furthering
writing
skills
and
comprehension.
The
district
and
the
board
have
asked
for
parent
involvement.
K
You
failed
all
of
this
by
not
figuring
out
how
to
get
these
book
lists
in
the
hands
of
all
vested
parties.
The
return
email,
I
received
included
AP
classes.
So
let's
talk
about
AP
Literature
classes.
Apparently
you
and
senior
members
were
given
a
copy
of
my
email.
I
want
you
to
reconsider,
giving
AP
students
for
the
23-24
school
year
a
list
of
the
required
reading.
We
are
talking
about
AP
students
and
their
success
in
part.
K
This
is
the
response
I
received
if
you
are
referring
to
an
AP
class
in
the
past
many
a
Peak
High
School
courses
required
summer
reading.
Prior
to
coming
back
for
the
school
year,
the
district
has
since
stopped
this
practice
at
the
high
school
level,
as
he
gives
unfair
expectations
on
students.
I'm
asking
you,
the
superintendent
senior
leadership
and
the
responder
to
my
email
to
Define
unfair
expectations.
I
spoke
on
the
radio
yesterday
about
the
email
I
received.
I
sent
the
entire
conversation
to
the
show
host.
You
baffled
him
too.
K
None
of
us
can
figure
out
what
is
meant
by
the
term
unfair
expectations.
At
this
point,
I
expect
this
letter
will
go
further.
I
have
expertise
in
both
American
and
British
systems
in
regards
to
year,
12,
literature
studies,
here's
what
I
know,
students
who
are
eager
to
do
well
want
to
read
the
required
list
beforehand,
because
it
settles
their
anxieties
reading
before
and
gives
them
the
opportunity,
both
unfamiliar
words
and
terms.
K
It
gives
them
time
to
think
I
encourage
students
to
write
in
the
margins
of
their
books,
so
that
definitions
and
questions
could
be
discussed
in
class
I,
encourage
them
to
read
together
and
bond
before
classes
started.
Oftentimes,
more
depth
of
understanding
happens
when
students
are
unafraid
to
express
their
thoughts
and
ask
questions.
The
school
year
can
be
hectic,
especially
for
students
taking
advanced
classes
and
or
participating
in
sports.
Your
inability
to
understand
the
life
of
a
senior
student
and
give
him
her
all
opportunities
to
succeed
is
inexcusable.
K
Counselors
are
still
in
their
offices.
They
know
who
is
taking
AP
Literature
classes
have
them
contact
AP
Literature
teachers
have
those
AP
Literature
teachers
send
an
email
to
the
home
of
every
student,
announcing
the
books
to
be
studied.
Next
fall:
ask
for
a
return
email
from
the
parent
Guardian.
It's
a
good
time
for
apt
juice
to
form
a
bond
with
next
year's
students
and
parents
as
well.
It
shows
take
care,
High,
School
parents.
Principals
might
want
to
confirm
how
many
parents
responded.
This
will
show
they
care
I
care.
I,
hope
you.
C
C
C
That
you
can
find
other
written
comment
attached
to
the
agenda
if
there,
if
there
is
any
other
written
puppet
comment,
that
brings
us
to
item
e.
Our
cons.
C
We
have
no
action
items,
but
so
we
we're
moving
on
to
item
G,
which
is
our
non-action
items.
I
understand,
member
lessons
you
wanted
to
pull
a
few
for
discussions.
C
Remember
lessons
would
like
to
have
a
conversation
on
memorandums
number
one:
five,
one,
one:
six
zero
and
one
five
eight
seen
and
hearing.
No
others
remember
lessons
number
one,
five
one.
What
is
your
comment.
L
Sure
I
wanted
to
well
I
wanted
to
begin
by
thanking
the
administration
for
this
afternoon's
work
session
and
a
tremendous
amount
of
work
that
went
into
I
guess.
The
reason
why
this
memo
is
here
so
for
that
and
for
the
advocacy,
I
think,
especially
Mr,
Anderson
or
or
potentially
finding
some
really
remarkable
funds
for
ASD
to
report
with
a
really
important
project,
I'm
thinking
back
to
November,
December
and
I.
L
Remember
really
trying
to
share
my
hope
that
we
would
at
some
point
strategically
deploy
school
bond
debt
reimbursement
funds
as
they
were
intended
so
as
to
offset
taxpayer
burdens
and
produce
additional
savings
by
offloading
or
front
loading.
Key
items
from
RCI
key
by
thereby
improving
student,
health
safety
and
learning
environments
and
I
think
that
this
memo
is
in
the
spirit
of
that
hope.
L
I
would
also
amend
that
statement
now
to
say
that
I
would
support
using
FEMA
funds
for
similar
purposes
and
I
really
appreciate
that
the
projects
at
I
think
it's
11
area,
schools,
Stellar,
Bear,
Valley,
Fire,
Lake,
Spring,
Hill,
clat,
Ravenwood,
Scenic,
Park,
Bay,
Shore,
Creekside,
West
and
Ursa
Major,
and
so
we've
got
11
schools
in
this
memo
and
their
families
reside
in
20
out
of
the
24
legislative
districts.
L
If
I,
if
I
did
my
analysis
correctly,
I
think
that
these
projects
are
really
timely,
proactive
they
focus
on
safe,
functional
learning
spaces
and
I,
especially
appreciate
that
these
projects
were
respond
to
very
recent
issues,
including
snow
loads,
that
shuttered
classrooms
and
libraries
this
past
winter.
L
They
expedite
projects
that
had
been
flagged
for
feature
Bond
projects,
and
they,
as
we
heard
you
know,
would
support
service
members,
families
down
the
road
in
anticipation
of
of
building
up
Alaska's
military
service
capabilities,
so
I
guess
the
one
question
I
would
have
is
just
to
confirm
how
much
would
be
remaining
in
the
school
bond
debt
reimbursement
funds,
if
about
nine
and
a
half
million,
is
allocated
from
that
37.7
I.
Just
sort
of
wanted
to
hear
that
my
math
aligned
with
what
the
administration.
E
E
1.8
million
from
that
last
last
week's
meeting.
G
Thank
you,
madam
president,
I
will
Echo
member
lessons
comments.
The
member
151
accomplishes
a
lot
and
I
think
the
speaking
of
An
Unfinished
Business
last
fall.
We
did
vote
to
return
to
the
other.
Large-Scale
Capital
project
of
Inlet,
View,
Elementary
last
fall
after
the
budget
cycle
and
that
in
turn
kept
us
very
busy
with
the
legislative
session
which
is
now
finished,
and
so
things
are
finally
starting
to
slow
down
for
us
just
as
we're
getting
to
the
end
of
the
year.
G
I
am
interested
in
asking
Administration
to
craft
a
amended
version
of
151
I'm
in
lieu
of
an
amendment
that
may
or
may
not
be
crafted
artfully
during
our
meeting,
which
allocates
the
remaining
26
million
or
so
to
the
Inlet
View
Elementary
project,
which
we
voted
to
take
up
at
a
later
date,
and
so
I
guess
with
my
ask
to
other
board
members,
as
if
other
support
for
that
to
voice
that
now
so
Administration
would
consider
the
time
investment
of
drafting
a
replacement,
an
amended
memo
worthwhile
and
then
pending
any
other
discussion
on
this
memorandum.
G
G
I
would
propose
if,
if
the
administration
feels
there's
board
support
after
this
conversation,
that
Administration
drafts
the
amended
version
or
an
S
version,
if
you
will
that
allocates
the
remaining
funds
towards
Inlet
View
Elementary
and
that
be
published
with
our
agenda
ahead
of
the
meeting
for
public
notice
versus
an
amendment
which
wouldn't
have
that
that
posting
and
so
I'm
hopeful
that
we
can
have
a
bit
more
conversation
as
to
how
other
board
members
feel
about
that
concept.
Now
to
provide
that
direction
to
Dr
Brian
and
his
team.
H
H
I
will
raise
that
we'll
need
to
think
of
the
bigger
term
strategy
in
terms
of
amendments
to
our
CIP,
as
well
as
future
bonds,
which
would
complement
that
effort.
So
that
would
be
multiple
conversations,
but
for
the
purpose
of
the
next
board
meeting
we
could
assist
in
drafting
an
amendment
such
as
what
you
just
described.
C
C
C
G
Yeah,
thank
you.
The
board
wouldn't
be
changing
its
course
of
action.
The
26
million
that's
remaining
would
not
be
a
sufficient
amount
to
have,
you
know,
be
removed
from
the
24
Bond.
What
would
change
is
the
amount
of.
C
F
C
42.
all
right,
so
this
is
about
half
of
what
would
be
needed,
so
the
intent
is
to
use
okay,
I
still
get
nervous,
because
that's
a
pool
of
money
that
we
can
use
to
offset
our
structural
deficit,
because,
even
with
with
with
the
49
million
we're
going
to
get
if
the
governor
signs
we're
still
going
to
be
in
a
hole
anyway.
Remember
lessons,
maybe.
L
L
I
wanted
to
ask
a
member
Jacobs
to
clarify
whether
your
intent
in
a
substitute
memo
would
be
for
the
rebuild
model,
which
is
what
the
current
bond
proposal
is
or
the
remodel
which,
as
I
recall,
adds
things
like
boiler
and
renovates
the
NPR,
but
doesn't
add
actual
classroom
space,
and
one
of
them
gets
used
significantly
more
years
to
the
building
and
the
other
one,
maybe
a
half
or
two-thirds
the
number
of
years.
So
maybe,
if
you
could
clarify
your
intent.
G
Sure
yeah
so
through
the
present,
if
I
might
yes.
Thank
you.
I
I
would
ask
that
what
administration
draft
is
an
amended
version
of
151
that
we
can
move
and
discuss
at
our
next
meeting.
That
includes
the
rebuild
option,
both
because
the
sport
is
never
voted
or
even
took
up
the
option
for
a
renovation.
G
We
have
seen
time
and
time
again
and
demonstrated
from
our
Administration
who
we
who
have
the
subject
matter
expertise
the
best
value
for
taxpayer.
Funds
is
a
rebuild
in
this
case
and
I
think
the
the
case
can
be
made
that
you
just
last
fall.
We
were
talking
about
how
to
use
the
school
bonded
reimbursements
and
we
were
looking
at
allocating
all
available
funds
for
the
purpose
of
one
one
project.
G
If
this,
if
this
current
memorandum
and
revised
version
holds,
we
will
essentially
be
getting
two
buildings
where
we
were
only
looking
at
one
and
that
doesn't
speak
to
the
other
projects
that
touch
and
impact
the
majority
of
Anchorage
legislative
districts,
and
so
I
think
this
conversation
that
we
can
have
more
in
Earnest
at
our
next
meeting.
G
G
I,
don't
think
our
vision
and
our
support
for
students
can
wait
until
that
conversation
finalizes,
because
we
don't
know
when
that
will
be,
and
so
we
we
have
previously
come
to
consensus
on
using
these
funds
for
capital
projects.
I
think
this
is
a
a
reasonable
conversation
to
have
at
our
next
meeting
and
then
vote
on
potentially.
Thank
you.
L
I
just
wanted
to
I
appreciate
the
the
notion.
I,
don't
know
if
it's
an
official
motion,
but
no
less.
If
you
can't
do
it
tonight,
okay,
yes,
it's
not
a
motion,
but
I
appreciate
the
intent.
I
would
support
that
I.
L
Think
member
Jacobs
asked
for
board
members
response
to
the
idea
and
I
just
wanted
to
say
that
for
perspective,
I
think
that
one
of
the
added
values
of
offsetting
part
of
a
new
School
construction
is
that
right
now
the
Inlet
View
item
as
it
stands
on
the
CIP
really
I
think
it's
like
37,
almost
38
million
dollars
of
a
60
million
dollar
Bond.
We
just
passed
a
much
smaller
Bond
offsetting
26.4
million
dollars
of
an
Inlet
View
project
I.
Think
we're
also
removing
another
five
point:
something
million
from
an
item
on
the
bond.
L
That's
bringing
that
potential
2024
Bond
much
further
down,
maybe
by
a
half
or
more,
which
would
allow
us
to
either
have
a
very
small
Bond
again
or
to
bring
additional
items
forward
which,
again,
in
the
end,
save
taxpayers,
money
and
I
think
allow
us
to
be
even
more
proactive
right.
It's
better
to
repair
these
roofs
than
replace
them.
So
I
think
that
there
is
some
strategic.
It
gives
us
a
little
bit
of
breeding
room
to
be
proactive
with
some
of
our
larger
long-term
capital
concerns.
A
I
support
the
idea
that
we
have
this
discussion,
I
mean
basically,
when
we
are
looking
at
accomplishing
some
of
these
projects.
We
we
don't
ever
put
individual
projects
to
vote
by
the
people.
We
asked
for
permission
to
borrow
money
and,
of
course,
people
interpret
the
results
of
that
vote
any
number
of
ways.
A
But
but
when
we
see
the
need
to
to
renovate
or
replace
a
school,
we
have
to
figure
out
a
way
to
do
it
and
I,
don't
think
we're
there
yet,
but
some
some
way
of
putting
operating
funds
or
funds
that
came
from
the
legislature
or
capital
projects
along
with
Bond
money,
makes
a
lot
of
sense
to
me.
If
we
can
figure
out
a
way
to
make
that
happen,.
D
I
I'm,
going
to
agree
with
member
Holloman
that
hey
I,
feel
like
putting
forth
too
large
of
a
bond
for
our
community
is,
is
very
stressful
for
the
community
and
and
I
had
to
experience
that
the
first
time
it
was
part
of
the
bond
allocation
project
first
year
on
the
board
and
I
would
like
to
see
continue
to
see
fairly
reasonable
bonds
put
forth
through
the
community,
because
I
feel
like
they.
They
are
more
apt
to
support
those
funding.
D
An
entire
School
I
think
is
difficult
for
our
community
to
support,
but
I
really
want
the
community
on
board.
So
a
portion
of
these
Capital
funds,
in
addition
to
getting
the
support
from
the
community
Through
the
Bond,
as
well
as
what
Kelly
was
talking
about
in
regards
to
adding
additional
Capital
needs
for
Safety
and
Security
for
our
school
district
on
the
bond
tend
to
the
community,
tends
to
be
very
supportive
of
so
I
would
support
this
conversation
as
well.
D
C
Other
comments,
member
Donnelly.
B
Thank
you
as
far
as
this
funds
already
being
allocated
to
Capital
that
can
be
changed
anytime.
There's
a
majority
vote
of
this
board
to
do
it.
I
really
agree
with
remarks
by
the
president.
B
As
far
as
keeping
our
options
available
for
utilizing,
this
money
is
a
shock
absorber
for
the
still
about
50
million
dollar
Gap
or
faced
even
if
the
current
proposal
that's
going
to
the
governor
is
fully
approved
as
far
as
increased
funding
I,
don't
think
this
is
a
wise
thing
to
do
to
spend
this
money
at
this
time
when
we've
got
that
massive
of
a
deficit
looking
at
us
for
the
24-25
school
year
and
I
also
don't
think
the
timing
is
appropriate
for
such
a
momentous
decision
as
to
tear
down
the
school
and
build
a
new
one
and
to
fund
it
without
after
it
was
rejected
by
voters
two
cycles
ago,
without
going
to
the
voters
first
and
getting
authorization
for
the
funding.
B
I
think
it's
a
serious
mistake,
and
it
also
requires
a
much
more
significant
notice
that
just
being
one
Amendment
option,
that's
before
us
at
the
next
meeting.
I
think
this
is
the
kind
of
thing
that
screams
out
to
be
on
the
non-action
calendar
as
a
as
an
appropriate
thing
and
to
meeting
or
the
meeting
before
any
meeting
that
goes
on
a
vote
and
not
to
be
off
the
calendar
and
then
to
show
up
as
an
amendment
before
the
meeting
I.
Don't
think
that's
right,
I
think
that's
really
wrong.
B
I
really
think-
and
this
is
I-
think
I
voted
six
times
against
this
project
now,
but
I
do
support
a
major
remodel
for
Inlet
View,
similar
to
what
we
successfully
did
with
turning
in
elementary
school,
but
I.
Don't
support
tearing
down
the
existing
building
and
building
a
new
one
in
a
different
location.
B
B
This
next
budget
cycle
we
might
be
looking
at
considering
shutting
down
and
to
say
to
the
voters,
we're
going
to
tear
down
a
school,
build
a
brand
new
one,
while
asking
voters
to
go
along
with
shutting
down
any
schools
is
I,
think
a
really
inconsistent
and
difficult
message
to
reinstate
the
problems
within
the
view
it
needs
a
major
remodel,
but
it
is
not
overcrowded
by
the
original
standards
that
this
District
utilized
six
years
ago,
and
even
if
it
was
under
the
new
standards,
then
it's
only
created
by
the
artificial
occupancy
of
the
students
from
other
areas
of
town
there.
B
I.
Just
think
this
is
not
the
time
to
to.
This
is
towards
the
very
end
of
the
last
bit
of
money.
We're
going
to
have
as
a
fiscal
shock
absorber
going
into
a
very
significant
budget
deficit
in
20,
24
25,
and
we
shouldn't
be
committing
These
funds
to
this
particular
project
at
this
time,
and
certainly
not
with
a
lack
of
this
full
proposal
being
on
a
non-action
calendar
to
a
meeting
prior
to
any
meeting.
It's
actually
voted
on,
especially
since
it
was
rejected
by
voters
the
last
time
it
was
on
the
ballot.
F
You
in
in
our
discussion,
I,
remember
about
October.
We
decided
to
postpone
this
at
you
know
four
period
of
time,
I
think
it
was
October,
November
and
and
to
deal
with
it
and
deal
with
it
later
and
we're
dealing
with
it
now
and
doing
that
discussion.
F
It's
also
not
identified
I,
don't
believe
it's
one
of
the
schools
that
we
would
Target
for
closing
and
we're
looking
for
a
lot
of
strategic
reasons
for
it.
I
will
say
this
that
some
of
the
closures
or
economically
impacted,
but
those
is
also
strategically
operationally
there
I
think
that
there
are
some
goals
there.
That's
trying
to
be
reached,
but
I'm
looking
at
this
amount
in
a
sense
that
we
are
not
fully
funding
rebuilding
it.
We
are
providing
funds
that
would
be
necessary
because
that
school
to
remain
operational
needs
major
work.
F
There's
no
question
that
way
and
the
age,
the
condition
it
just
needs
to
be
done,
and
the
the
amount
of
being
posted
here
whether
it's
well
invested
to
remodeling.
This
is
a
new
one.
Is
a
discussion
I
think
the
board
has
in
the
public
ways
in
order.
However,
else
we
want,
but
this
is.
This
is
close
to
that
amount.
F
Now
remember,
member
Donnelly
talking
about
potentially
putting
in
20
million
I
believe
at
that
point
or
or
amount
that
amount,
and
that
was
a
little
that
was
less
than
what
it
was
needed
for
a
full
remodel
to
address.
All
of
the
major
conditions
that
need
to
be
addressed
so
I
support
the
idea
of
putting
it
on
here.
I
think,
that's
critical
and
I.
Also
I,
don't
think,
is
the
bond
that
hat
is
on.
It
was
not
approved.
F
It's
a
very
close
vote
and
I
think
there
are
a
lot
of
reasons
that
people
vote
for
and
against
something
and
to
put
one
item
on
there
as
the
sole
basis
for
it.
I
won't
agree
with
that,
but
I
will
agree.
It
was
in
the
bond
that
wasn't
approved
within
that,
but
I
think
this
is
a.
This
is
an
amount
that
in
in
November
we
were
saying
this
is
this
would
have
been
okay
and
I.
Think
consistent
with
that
I
support
this
idea.
Thank
you.
C
L
Let
me
pull
up
my
notes
really
quickly.
This
is
really
more
of
a
an
opportunity
for
feedback
and
a
couple
of
maybe
points
of
clarification
from
the
event
frustration.
I
know
this
is
probably
going
to
be
an
issue
in
governance
on
Thursday,
so
I
really
appreciate
member
Jacob's
work
incorporating
feedback
from
a
prior
governance
meeting.
There
was
input
from
an
Alaska
Association
of
School
Board
model
policy.
L
There
were
board
member
comments,
I
think
this
is
already
stronger
and
more
relevant
and
I
just
wanted
to
tip
my
hat
to
the
legwork
that
went
in
I
wanted
to
really
ask
a
question
about
there's
a
sentence
under
the
instruction
I
think
this
is
new
potential
language
that
the
district
shall
adopt
one
or
more
evidence-based
curricula
shown
to
decrease
the
use
of
Alcohol,
non-prescribed,
opioids
and
Other
Drugs,
which
educate
students.
C
L
Sorry
I
I
got
I
jump
to
one
of
you
want
me
to
hold
my
comments.
L
Is
a
question
about
an
item
under
instruction
on
memo158
and
it
says
that
we
shall
adopt
an
evidence-based
curriculation
to
decrease
alcohol
use,
opioid
use
and
other
drugs
and
I
guess,
but
that's
new
and
different
and
I.
Maybe
this
is
a
pointed
question
to
hopefully
be
asked
in
governance.
Does
that
exist
as
opposed
to
you
know?
The
current
language
of
the
policy
doesn't
say
that
we
would
adopt
an
evidence-based
curricula.
It
says
something
different.
It's
a
little
bit
less
prescriptive.
It's
like
okay,
we
offer
instructions.
L
So
maybe
remember
Jacobs
can
comment
on
that
and
maybe
eventually
we
can
have
staff
input
on
whether
that's
a
possibility.
G
Yeah,
so
my
understanding
is
the
chair
of
the
Massey
opioid
task
force,
has
a
strong
feelings
and
potentially
data
to
back
up
and
assert
that
the
Kelsey's
lesson
that
has
been
crafted
and
improved
over
recent
years
is
successful.
G
I,
don't
know
that
it's
something
that's
that's
gone
out
to
a
formal
study
and
I'm
completely
open
to
modifying
that
language
to
make
it
achievable
and
less
onerous,
well
I'm
attempting
to
fulfill
the
underlying
ask,
which
is
consistency
in
Awareness
for
our
middle
and
high
school
students
on
the
science
of
addiction,
I
haven't
yet
had
the
conversation
with
relevant
staff
from
Dr
Brian's
team,
so
I'm
hopeful.
G
We
can
Circle
a
bit
during
our
governance
meeting
later
this
week
on
that
topic
to
hear
their
level
of
comfortability
with
the
current
language
see
if
they
have
suggestions.
I
know
that
most
more
recently,
we
are
ramping
up
efforts
internally
and
apart
from
this
policy,
which
certainly
there
are
justifications
for
the
methods
of
instruction
that
were
engaging
in
this
guest
speakers,
we're
having
and
so
there's
there's
clearly
data
behind
it.
But
this
current
language
isn't
a
sticking
point
for
me.
It's
really
just
a
matter
of
how
we
would
like
it
outlined
in
the
policy.
L
Remember
lesson
yeah.
Thank
you
very
much
for
that.
The
only
other
thing
I
would
I
wanted
to
raise.
There
was
an
item
on
the
very
last
page
of
the
proposed
policy
saying
that
students
possessing
selling
and
or
using
alcohol,
marijuana
or
other
drugs
related
paraphernalia
shall
be
subject
to
disciplinary
procedures
which
may
result
in
the
suspension
or
expulsion
and
I
thought
that
maybe
it
needs
a
little
bit
of
clarification
because
it
doesn't
really
Define
I
mean
any
you're
a
student
all
the
time.
L
But
what
if
you
sell
or
possess
these
things
outside
of
the
school
day
or
off
school
campus,
or
if
social
media
is
a
part
of
it
it
just
it
seems
kind
of
complicated
and
they
feel
like.
That
would
be
something
that
I
would
hope
to
address
in
governance
and
I.
Think
that's
the
appropriate
Place,
yeah
and
I
just
wanted
to
raise
it.
L
L
L
I've
been
noodling
on
a
question
since
calendar
calendar
is
part
of
this
memo
and
it
just
seemed
like
a
reasonable
time
to
bring
it
up
that
arose
out
of
the
science
of
reading
conference
and
there
may
be
some
districts
in
the
state
who
are
going
to
be
adjusting
their
parent-teacher
conference
dates
to
align
with
a
requirement
that
parents
are
notified,
that
their
student
is
not
proficient
within
like
a
15-day
window
of
screening,
and
so,
given
that
the
parent-teacher
conference
date
is
in
October
of
October,
25th
and
26th,
it
seems
like
that
might
be
a
little
while
after
screening
and
I
guess
does
the
count.
L
The
question
would
be:
does
the
calendar
need
to
be
further
adjusted
in
light
of
any
Alaska
reads:
act,
regulations,
or
are
we
okay
with
things
as
they
stand?
I
mean
this
wasn't
a
recommendation.
This
is
just
an
opportunity
for
me
to
raise
a
question.
Yeah.
H
Through
the
president,
I
appreciate
the
question:
I
wouldn't
anticipate
it
being
prudent
to
reactivate
the
calendar
committee
to
make
further
adjustments
than
what's
in
the
memo,
for
a
number
of
legit
School
reasons
to
inform
the
family,
but
I
do
know
that
we
have
a
really
great
team
within
academic
Services.
That's
really
trying
to
figure
out
what
do
we
need
to
do
long
term?
H
C
C
Okay,
moving
on,
let's
see
public
comment
on
non-agenda
items.
Do
we
have
anybody
else
signed
up?
Oh
star,
marcette
welcome,
Miss
marcette.
I
First
of
all,
I
want
to
apologize
for
being
late.
I
looked
at
the
something
on
board
docs
and
it
said
it
started
at
seven
and
then
executive
meeting
was
from
six
to
seven
and
I
thought.
Okay,
so
they
changed
the
time,
so
I'll
go
at
seven,
but
so
I'm,
late,
I'm,
sorry,
I
apologize,
actually
nothing
bad
I
wanted
to
just
share
that
I
visited
over
at
Mountain,
View,
Elementary
and
I
can
tell
you
when
I
walk
in
the
door,
it
was
magical,
it
was
I,
couldn't
believe
the
difference.
I
In
that
school
I
mean
it
was
welcoming.
There
was
places
for
parents
to
sit.
It
was
diversity
everywhere
in
the
hallways
and
the
staff.
I
Everything
that
I
saw
embodied
what
we
and
the
school
board
now
is
trying
to
do,
and
I
saw
that
in
the
staff
and
the
employees
and
the
students,
and
if
you
have
not
been
over
tech
school,
you
really
need
to
go,
because
it
is
amazing,
it's
not
just
the
principle,
but
the
staff
that
have
made
the
difference
in
that
school.
They
played
music
during
lunch,
she's
setting
up
a
robotics
room
for
next
year.
I
C
I
And
then
there's
just
one
other
thing:
I
want
to
say,
and
that
is
East
High
School
I
will
just
say
that
there
needs
to
be
more
policing
in
the
bathrooms.
There
have
been
things
happening
in
there.
My
grandson
was
beat
up
by
a
group.
I
Of
course
they
won't
ever
say
anything
and
because
it's
the
last
day
of
school
I'm
not
going
to
share
everything.
That's
happened
to
him
in
there,
but
he's
been
offered
drugs.
I
It's
it's
a
little
frightening
with
what's
going
on
in
that
bathroom,
so
I
just
wanted
to
share
that.
Maybe
next
year
you
guys
can
take
a
look
at
that
or
the
district
can
take
a
look
at
that
and
see
what
we
can
do
a
little
better.
Thank.
C
C
Thank
you
very
much.
Anybody
else
wishing
to
provide
public
comment,
all
right.
That
brings
us
to
item
H
superintendent,
update.
H
All
right,
thank
you.
Madam
president.
I
have
just
a
couple
of
updates
tonight:
the
school
Year's
wrapping
up
and
it
was
energizing
to
personally
shake
the
hands
of
thousands
of
seniors
as
they
prepare
to
head
off
to
college
careers
and
their
secondary
lives.
It
was
also
a
celebration
of
the
incredible
families
and
staff
members
and
building
leaders
who
made
graduation
possible.
So
we
wish
our
students,
families
and
staff
safe
and
joyful
summer,
and
we
look
forward
to
welcoming
you
back
next
school
year.
H
So
as
we
transition
to
Summer,
the
goal
is
to
reflect
and
start
coordinating
some
of
our
upcoming
major
initiatives.
We'll
begin
carefully
planning
over
the
next
year
to
prepare
for
all
sixth
graders
attending
middle
schools
and
our
new
school
start
times.
So
those
changes
go
into
effect
for
the
24-25
school
year.
This
summer
will
also
be
about
taking
time
to
continue
preparing
for
the
upcoming
launch
of
our
new
K3
Ela
curriculum
and
speaking
of
the
new
Ela
curriculum.
H
This
change
dovetails
nicely
with
our
shift
to
district-wide
professional
learning,
Communities
going
into
effect
next
school
year.
This
upcoming
fall,
so
ASD
has
been
implementing
plc's
for
high
schoolers
or
High
School
teachers
rather
and
now
we'll
expand
that
district-wide.
So
plcs
will
give
instructional
staff
in
hour
every
week
to
learn
from
one
another
collaborate
with
one
another
to
support
student
learning
so
for
elementary
and
middle
school
families.
This
does
mean
that
school
will
start
later
by
one
hour
on
Mondays.
Only
and
remember
high
schools
already
doing
this,
so
there's
no
changes
there.
H
H
Other
staff
will
be
on
site
to
supervise
students
before
the
school
day
begins
on
Mondays,
so
we'll
prioritize
getting
families
School
level
details
about
what
that
looks
like
as
soon
as
possible,
but,
as
you
can
imagine,
principals
will
need
time
to
work
with
the
district
and
work
with
their
teams
to
design
an
individual
plan
for
how
to
implement
this
so
more.
To
come
on
that
and
all
that
to
say,
the
shift
to
plcs
is
definitely
an
adjustment,
but
it's
in
a
positive
investment
of
time
to
support
teachers
and
improve
student
outcomes.
H
So,
to
sum
it
up,
late
start
Mondays
will
take
place
this
upcoming
school
year
and
the
buildings
will
be
open
for
student
drop
off
at
the
normal
time
to
support
families
through
this
shift
and
I'll.
Add
a
quick
disclaimer
that
if
you
have
a
student
that
attends
an
ASD,
Charter
or
alternative
school,
your
school
might
not
follow
this
schedule.
H
H
And,
lastly,
we'll
continue
to
monitor
student
transportation
Staffing
throughout
the
summer
to
keep
the
community
aware
and
informed
of
any
possible
concerns
as
proactively
as
possible.
Since
last
year's
Transportation
Staffing
shortage,
we've
increased
wages,
we've
offered
summer
jobs
to
all
drivers,
and
we
have
asked
drivers
to
provide
notice
of
their
intent
to
return
earlier
than
ever
before.
These
strategies
can
help
and
will
Implement
additional
strategies
as
needed,
based
on
the
data
and
I'll
close
by
giving
a
special
shout
out
to
Alaska
teacher
of
the
year
Catherine
Walker
of
diamond
high
school.
H
C
L
I
have
a
question,
but
it
is
not
related
to
what
you
just
reported
on.
Oh,
we
currently
have
dashboards
on
progress
towards
board
goals
and,
like
we
have
a
fast
bridge
data
dashboard
will
we
have
an
m
class
like?
Will
that
be
a
part
of
our
data,
dashboard
Suite.
H
We'll
provide
an
update,
I
believe
we
will
actually
I
got
an
answer.
Yes,
we
will
and
we
can
also
do
a
deep
dive
in
our
conversation
in
June
on
the
goals.
Okay,
okay,.
B
I
wanted
to
share
the
concerns,
I
suppose
before
by
former
president
about
the
East
High
bathrooms
and
restrooms,
we've
all
gotten
those
reports
of
really
serious
dangerous
things
happening
in
there.
What
exactly
is
the
administration
doing
about
that
concern.
H
B
Another
question
follow
up:
why
doesn't
this
school
district
provide
a
reading
list
for
AP
classes
and
for
that
matter,
why
don't
we
do
it,
for
all
students
give
them
give
parents
a
guide
or
some
help
or
something
to
have
kids
to
do
over
the
summer?
With
reading
I
mean
it
just
seems
real
common
sense,
so
why
don't
we
do
it.
H
I'd
be
happy
to
provide
some
insights
on
that
I
know.
The
team
had
prepared
some
logistical
considerations.
Given
the
there
are
many
different
classrooms
and
different
English
subjects.
So
there
may
be
some
logistical
considerations,
but
we'll
make
sure
that
the
board
is
fully
aware
of
what
those
concerns
are
and
if
there
are
things
that
the
board
would
wish
to
be
done
to
make
that
process
easier
and
better
for
families.
C
Thank
you
other
comments
on
this
for
any
on
anything
with
the
superintendent
all
right,
not
seeing
any.
Thank
you.
Dr
Bryant,
we're
now
on
item
J
school
board
and
administration
comments
who
wants
to
start
today?
D
I've
had
the
honor
to
attend
many
graduations
this
month
it
was,
it
was
amazing
and
every
one
of
them
I
enjoyed
tremendously,
got
to
celebrate
the
end
of
the
school
year
with
students
and
congratulations
to
all
of
our
students
and
all
the
best
who
are
graduates
as
they
embark
on
their
next
pathway.
Kind
of
wish.
Josh
was
here,
so
he
could
be
cheering
him
on
too,
but
I
understand
it's.
The
last
day
of
school
I
was
at
King
Tech
High
School.
This
morning,
I
wanted
to
highlight.
D
There
was
a
signing
event
for
students
that
were
signed
directly
into
apprenticeship
programs,
and
so
it
was
similar
to
the
NCAA
signing
events.
D
Only
these
students
actually
get
to
start
their
career
or
have
started
their
career,
so
one
of
them
in
particular,
I
I've
known
for
many
years
she's,
one
of
my
co-workers,
daughters,
who
is
who
is
part
of
the
now
part
of
the
teamsters,
and
she
has
gotten
her
she's
gotten
her
CDL
through
a
new
program
that
King
Tech
is
working
with
them
on
and
she
actually
will
be
starting
work
in
Valdez
here
in
the
next
couple
weeks.
D
So
so
many
amazing
stories
of
what
the
Partnerships
that
our
schools
are
doing
with
community
business
and
and
non-profits
and
and
such
amazing
students
that
we
have
so
I'm
very
excited
for
all
of
them,
also
ASD
connect
published
yesterday.
So
please
check
it
out.
There's
lots
of
good
information
and
updates
on
our
school
start
time.
Plans
and
I
would
also
like
to
give
out
a
shout
out
to
Lisa
Miller
from
Team
ASD
she's,
leaving
us
after
tomorrow
and
she's
been
a
tremendous
asset
to
the
Communications
Department,
especially
during
covid,
and
especially
during
this
year.
D
L
L
L
You
know
what
people
can't
hear,
though,
are
the
quiet
comments
that
the
people
sitting
up
front
get
to
share
and
I
was
really
just
appreciative
of
all
of
the
hard
work
that,
in
this
case,
Mr
Prince
are
the
Bartlett
principal
shared.
He
said
this
student
was
somebody
that
he
managed
to
talk
out
of
quitting
three
weeks
ago
and
that
student
finished
it
up
got
made
it
all
the
way
across
the
stage
made
it
across
the
finish
line
and
I.
L
Don't
know
for
me,
I
think
that
school
is
full
of
all
of
those
Quiet
Moments
I
mean
so
many
Quiet,
Moments
and
so
graduation.
Yes,
it
is
a
celebration
of
our
12th
graders,
but
that
those
accomplishments
rest
on
all
of
the
the
small
moments
that
begin
so
many
years
before,
and
so
I
just
applaud
all
of
our
Educators
all
of
our
support
staff.
When
a
student
is
welcomed
into
the
building
by
a
crossing
guard
and
given
a
hug
by
the
BPO,
the
lunch,
you
know
support
staff.
L
All
of
these
people
pull
it
all
together.
So
I'm
just
really
appreciative
of
everyone.
A
Yeah
I
had
the
opportunity
to
meet
with
the
ptso
at
South,
High
and
I
know
that
a
lot
of
the
board
members
have
a
lot
of
excess
time.
You
might
look
at
talking
to
some
of
the
ptos
or
ptsos
or
ptas.
A
One
of
the
things
I
always
felt
fascinating
about
the
meetings.
As
far
as
I
can
tell
they're
the
one
group
that
actually
meets
figures
out.
What
the
problem
is
figures
out,
how
they're
going
to
solve
it
and
who's
going
to
do
it
and
that's
the
end
of
the
meeting
like
they
actually
do
things
in
the
meeting
after
which
other
stuff
immediately
happens.
A
But
it
would
be
I
think
a
way
that
if
we
occasionally
are
attending
some,
it
might
deepen
our
connection
to
the
community,
certainly
make
it
available
to
ptas,
to
request
a
board
member
to
to
show
up
and
have
a
discussion
with
them
about
about
various
things.
A
I
also
wanted
to
say
that
I
think
a
Community
member
has
been
in
touch
with
a
couple
of
us
about
the
community
health
clinic,
and
it
looks
like
that's
something
that
we
may
be
able
to
allow
to
happen
in
our
building.
Next
year,
it
is
a
hugely
meaningful
thing
to
a
lot
of
people
in
the
community.
A
People
that
can't
get
in
to
see
a
doctor
actually
get
quality
care
for
free,
just
kind
of
reminiscent
of
the
vaccine
clinic
here
in
this
building,
where
a
lot
of
people
couldn't
figure
out
any
other
way
to
just
show
up
here
without
having
to
have
an
apart,
an
appointment,
stand
in
line
and
get
treated
and
taken
care
of
it.
Sort
of
mirrors
that
and
and
that
had
such
a
positive
effect
on
the
community.
A
When
we
were
able
to
do
that
here
in
in
the
huge
benefit,
there's,
we
don't
have
to
actually
do
the
services,
that's
all
taken
care
of
by
other
people,
but
they
had
a
real
good
run
this
year
over
in
the
at
T
Center
being
in
one
of
our
schools,
where
they
really
are
closer
to
the
houses
and
Community
would
mean
a
whole
lot
for
them.
A
A
If
we
can
look
at
doing
some
things
to
encourage
science
fairs
again,
that
was
one
of
those
things
that
disappeared
without
me,
realizing
it
ASD
used
to
be
heavily
involved
in
it.
There
is
a
group:
that's
making
State
science
fair
happened,
but
we're
not
having
so
many
in
our
buildings
anymore,
and
that
just
means
a
whole
lot
of
kids.
That
would
have
participated.
Don't
it
it's
only
you're,
much
more
enthusiastic
kids
that
are
ready
to
go
to
a
bigger
competition
that
do
it
and
I
realize
there.
A
There
are
a
lot
of
obstacles
to
it
and
a
lot
of
it
is
people
and
money,
but
as
we're
looking
at
there's
a
way
to
encourage
that
I
would
hope
that
we
would
that's
all
I
have.
B
Thank
you,
madam
president.
I
just
like
to
notice
some
remarks
at
our
last
meeting
regarding
the
function
of
our
sros
or
Anchorage
police
officers
in
our
high
schools
and
I
just
want
to
clarify
that,
for
me,
I
think
RSI
sros
are
an
essential
first
line
of
defense.
Protecting
our
students
from
violence
in
all
our
high
schools,
communities
and
States
all
over
our
nation
are
now
requiring
such
Security
in
all
their
Public,
Schools
and
I.
Think
the
most
reasonable
next
step
in
Anchorage
is
just
what
this
board
has
adopted.
B
As
a
resolution
of
I
think
was
four
years
ago,
maybe
five
years
ago,
and
that
was
to
request
the
expansion
of
the
SRO
coverage
into
our
all.
Our
middle
schools,
I
fear
and
am
concerned,
as
a
parent
and
as
a
citizen
of
the
lack
of
coverage,
particularly
in
our
middle
schools
and
I,
believe
they
they
are
there.
In
addition
to
the
wonderful
functions
they
serve
from
a
community
and
societal
point
of
view,
but
they
are
there
to
protect
our
students
from
violent
threats.
G
You,
madam
president,
just
a
couple
quick
comments
to
wrap
up.
I
will
Echo
no
congratulations
and
appreciation
for
all
of
our
graduates
and
the
families
that
submit
I.
Don't
have
a
graduate
this
year,
but
I
should
have
two
next
year
and
the
amount
of
work
it
takes
to
support
a
student
inside
the
home
and
outside
is
significant.
So
it
really
is
a
family
accomplishment.
So
congratulations
to
ASD
families,
congratulations
to
our
students
and
all
of
our
Educators
for
making
the
ceremonies
that
we
had
these
last
few
weeks
possible.
G
G
I've
watched
this
board's
meetings
for
years
as
they
are
on
YouTube
if
anyone's
looking
for
something
to
do
on
a
Friday
or
Saturday.
What
strength
of
our
our
group
is
public
engagement,
so
I
strongly
oppose
and
and
couldn't
disagree
more
with
any
esportation.
That's
this
group
is
anything
but
transparent
and
accessible
in
the
things
that
we
discuss
here
and
so
I'm
proud
to
be
on
the
body.
For
that
reason,
so
I
hope
we
continue
to
do
that.
Thank
you.
F
I
just
can't
begin
with
a
start:
y'all
could
not
leave
early
first
of
all
I
just
simply
say
hi
star,
we
couldn't
say
anything
when
you
testified
the
hearing
of
your
former
board
member
come
up
here.
I
haven't
seen
in
a
while
is
nice,
and
so
welcome.
I
appreciate
that
appreciate
the
graduation
ceremonies
I
attended,
say
even
West.
It
was
just
so
positive
and
so
much
a
reaction.
I
appreciate
the
fact
I
went
to
save
before
the
graduation.
F
I
went
there
the
day
before,
because
I
wanted
to
I've
been
there
many
times
and
wanted
to
see
it
one
more
time
and
it's
actually
improved
so
much
in
so
many
respects.
In
the
last
time,
I
saw
it
just
more
more
just
enthusiastic
and
it
was
fun
meeting
with
the
students
and
staff
there.
So
I
appreciate
that
I
in
as
far
as
West
being
the
largest
graduation
class,
I
guess
so
I
guess
Wilkins
calm
covers
my
hand
from
the
shaking
everybody,
but
we'll
cover
that
separately.
F
I
appreciate
the
legislation
giving
us
additional
funds,
upsetting
that
is
one-time
funding.
The
way
they
did
it.
The
fact
that
we're
not
going
to
get
where
we
need
to
be
we've
got
all
kinds
of
issues.
I
would
just
encourage
to
the
public
to
get
behind
the
the
legislatures
and
push
that
they
are
supposedly
going
to
have
a
special
session,
maybe
in
October,
to
try
to
deal
with
the
funding
issue,
they're
not
going
to
resolve
they're
living
up
to
their
commitments.
F
If
they
don't
have
the
source
of
funding
to
do
it
and
that's
that's
their
responsibility
to
figure
that
out,
but
I
hope
that
they
are
joined
for
that.
I
hope
that
they
finally
deal
with
the
crisis
that
they
were
headed
for,
and
we
know
that's
going
to
happen.
It's
going
to
make
our
magic
process
very
complex,
I,
believe
and
somewhat
depressing
somewhat.
F
But
changes
in
the
air
and
I'll
say
today
was
the
last
day
with
Abbott
Loop
Community,
with
the
Abbott
Loop
Elementary
neighborhood,
but
I
welcome
the
Alaska
native
cultural
charter
school
I'm
glad
that
they
are
getting
a
school
of
their
own.
F
You
know
new
graduates
coming
out,
they're
looking
at
you
know
lots
of
options
and
is
difficult,
they're,
looking
at
salaries,
they
benefits,
but
looking
at
where
the
future
of
that
school
is
going,
the
commitment
from
the
state
and
Community
behind
it.
It's
going
to
make
it
a
tough
process
and
we're
going
to
have
to
do
what
we
can
I
appreciate
teachers
here
that
are
doing
that
job,
I,
I,
hope
to
the
degree
we
can.
We
keep
as
much
retention
as
possible,
because
so
many
kids
count
on
you.
So
just
a
out
there.
F
C
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
member
Higgins,
okay,
so
I,
you
know
I
think
by
the
time
it
gets
to
me.
Everything
has
been
said.
So
our
graduates
are
amazing,
they're
going
to
go
out
and
do
a
fantastic
things
and
I
know
their
parents
are
probably
it's
a
Bittersweet
time
for
parents,
but
I
think
it's
really
sweet
when
they
do
start
understanding.
C
Just
how
difficult
it
is
to
make
your
own
Arrangements
your
earn
your
own
money
and
all
those
things,
but
I
have
no
doubt
that
our
kids
are
going
to
do
great
so
and
I
I
do
want
to
thank
the
board
for
making
the
graduations
no
matter
how
small
or
how
large
I
want
to.
Thank
you
guys
for
making
those
the
priorities
and
I
want
to
thank
member
Higgins
for
covering
one
for
me.
Remember:
Jacobs
covered
a
public
event
for
me.
C
I
really
do
appreciate
that,
because
it
really
is
important
for
us
to
show
up
and
be
present.
I
had
a
great
meeting
with
Chief
Guzman,
who
is
a
chief
Master
Sergeant
on
Jay
bear
anyway.
He
works
with
the
jber
families.
He
Adele
and
I
met
to
talk
about
those
500
people
that
are
coming
and
what
their
needs
are
so
and
I
realized
in
talking
to
them
that,
while
we
meet
with
our
with
Community
councils,
we
really
don't
meet
with
anybody
on
base
on
a
regular
basis.
C
So
I
will
be
talking
with
governance
to
see
if
we
can't
add
at
least
a
some
kind
of
and
I'll
for
this
year.
I'll
take
it,
but
for
make
it
a
permanent
part
of
our
schedule
that
we
do
have
a
board
representative
that
meets
with
military
with
the
military
Liaisons.
