All

mrs
nelly,
by
the
way,
will
be
joining
joining
us
in
a
little
bit
she's
at
a
meeting.
C
Item
2.04
established
the
agenda
order.
The
agenda
stands
as
published
item
2.05
recognitions.
We
have
two
recognitions
today.
We
have
two
departing
board
members.
This
will
be
their
last
meeting
and
in
some
ways
today
feels
like
the
day.
I
dropped
my
eldest
son
off
at
his
dorm
for
the
first
time
and
had
to
drive
away
without
him
when
you
spend
as
much
time
with
your
colleagues
as
we
do,
they
become
like
family
and
when
one
of
our
members
departs.
E
E
E
F
Okay,
thank
you.
I'm
not
sure
how
how
to
follow
that
other
than
to
say
thank
you.
You
have
been
at
times
a
wonderful
voice
of
reason.
For
us,
you
have
been
a
and
and
has
been
your
job,
a
wonderful
advocate
for
the
students
of
anne
arundel
county,
which
which
elected
you.
So
we
are
we're
very
proud
of
you.
Hopkins
is
lucky.
F
F
I
have
yet
to
be
invited
to
lunch
by
montel
williams,
like
you
were
in
nashville,
but
I'm
sure
he's
he's
on
the
line
waiting
to
invite
me,
but
you've
done
some
you've
done
some
wonderful
things
for
us
and
we're
very
proud
of
you
so
en
enjoy
the
summer,
get
ready
for
college,
and
we
have
a
little
gift
from
the
board
and
the
staff.
G
You've
been
an
amazing
student
board
member,
it
always
seems,
like
you
all,
have
just
gotten
here
when
we
have
to
say
goodbye
to
you
and
it's
so
sad.
You've
been
a
strong
board
member,
a
passionate
advocate
for
what
you
believe
in
a
strong
voice
for
the
students
of
our
county
and
a
wonderful
addition
to
our
board.
G
I'm
going
to
miss
you
very
much.
I
wish
you
the
best
in
college
and
it's
hard
to
believe
this
is
the
seventh
board
member
student
board
member
I've
had
to
say
goodbye
to
it
gets
I
think
it's
harder
every
year,
because
they're
you're,
all
you're,
all
wonderful
and
you
each
have
your
own
wonderful
contributions
and-
and
I
feel
like
I
feel
like
we
helped
raise
them
in
a
way.
G
You
know
I
mean
they
they
come
in
and
they
don't
know
what
what
they're
going
to
do
and
they
they
they
leave
and
and
they've,
been
they've,
been
able
to
help
us
figure
out
what
we're
supposed
to
do
by
offering
these
contributions
as
a
student-
and
I
want
to
thank
you
for
what
you've
taught
us
this
year
about
our
jobs.
So,
thank
you
so
much
for
being
here
and
sharing
this
year
with
us.
Thank
you.
D
I
may
not
remember
nashville
quite
as
fondly
because
you
drugged
me
into
all
those
boot
shops
but
and
then
didn't
buy
any
boots.
Well,
there
you
go.
You
know
I
mean
I
would
have
been
so
bad
if
you
just
bought
a
pair,
but
but
you
did
did
manage
to
buy
quite
a
lot
of
the
stuff
that
you
had
to
log
on
to
that
plane
and
I
even
said
to
stacy:
should
we
help
her
and
then
I
thought?
D
No,
if
you
were
my
daughter,
I
wouldn't
help
you,
because
if
you
were
gonna
care
buy
it,
you
had
to
carry
it
on
and
you
did
a
yeoman's
job
of
that,
so
that
was
that
was
great.
But
in
in
all
seriousness
I
am
always
been
impressed
by
the
students
who
have
who
have
sat
in
in
that
chair
as
well.
As
you
know,
students
in
our
county,
the
young
people,
are.
D
We
forget
that
they
really
do
have
good
heads
on
their
shoulders
sometimes,
and
you
have
proven
and
not
broken
the
streak
that
that
we
have
some
really
outstanding
students,
and
I
I
value
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
what
you
all
contribute
in
terms
of
bringing
the
perspective,
because
sometimes
it's
it's
the
further
away
you
get
from
18
the
harder
it
is
to
remember.
D
Sometimes
so
it's
always
very
nice
to
have
people
who
can
bring
that
perspective
around
and
and
you've
done
it
in
a
way
that
has
been
respectful
of
of
the
people
around
you
just
as
well,
as
I
hope
we've
been
respectful
to
your
opinions
too.
It's
been
a
pleasure
and
I
wish
you
most
good
luck.
D
When
you
head
off
to
college
and
even
though
you're
only
going
up
the
road
a
bit,
you
know
it,
it
will
be
difficult
to
get
home,
sometimes
because
you're
going
to
be
busy
involved
in
getting
in
to
all
that.
I
have
no
doubt
that
you'll
find
some
kind
of
leadership
role
to
take
there
as
well.
So
I
thank
you
for
allowing
us
the
privilege
of
having
you
with
us
for
a
year.
C
H
Jackson,
thank
you.
Ma'am
aisha,
it
has
been
a
true
blast.
You're
an
awesome
student
member
of
the
board.
I
started
six
years
ago
with
a
student
member
of
the
boy
from
south
county,
and
I
leave
today
with
a
student
member
of
the
board
from
south
county,
and
you
have
just
been
absolutely
amazing.
We,
the
professionalism
that
you
have
had,
has
been
wonderful
to
watch.
You
remember,
csp.
You
looked
over
at
me
and
you
said
I've
got
the
wrong
speech
and
what
she
did
at
that
graduation
and
said
at
that.
H
Graduation
was
absolutely
amazing
with
the
wrong
speech
at
it.
I
hated
to
see
you
have
the
right
speech,
but
all
in
all
seriousness,
you
did
three
graduations
that
day
you
went
from
umbc
down
to
the
equestrian
center
and
back
to
hanover
on
coca-cola
drive,
and
it's
a
testament
that
one
day
is
just
a
representative
is
representative
of
a
testament
of
what
you've
done
the
entire
year,
and
so
you
will
be
missed,
but
you're
not
going
far,
and
I'm.
I
C
J
You
know
every
time.
I
think
that
the
bar
is
really
high
with
the
student
board
members,
the
next
student
board
member
just
raises
it
even
higher.
Just
it's
just
a
phenomenal
thing.
What
the
student
board
members
do
for
us,
even
with
the
budget
process,
the
student
board
members
are
very
effective
in
that
role
as
well.
J
I'm
so
glad
that
we
have
student
board
members
that
do
have
a
full
vote.
I
would
encourage
other
boards
to
consider
that
the
students
have
so
much
to
offer.
Aisha
has
had
so
much
to
offer
and
she's
even
in
times
when
we've
disagreed,
she's
disagreed
with
a
smile
on
her
face
and
she
wasn't
afraid
to
disagree.
That
was
a
big
thing.
J
J
K
L
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you,
everyone,
and
I
want
to
say
thank
you
to
my
colleagues
these
past
few
months.
They've
been
amazing
and
getting
this
opportunity
to
voice
my
opinions
and
to
meet
you
guys
has
been
amazing.
As
dr
elato
has
stated
many
times,
it's
the
people
that
really
make
up
our
school
system
as
well
as
this
board
individually.
I've
gotten
to
know
all
of
you
guys
and
you
guys
are
great
people
and
that
and
the
fact
that
you
guys
accepted
me
from
day
one
that
was
huge
for
me.
L
L
I
got
a
lot
of
clothes
out
of
it,
but
anyway,
thank
you
guys
so
much
you
guys
honestly
have
been
a
blessing
and
dr
alato.
Thank
you
so
much
for
what
you've
done
our
monthly
meetings.
I
looked
forward
to
those
every
single
month
and
even
though
sometimes
it
may
have
been
a
little
late
because
it
was
during
this.
L
I
still
look
forward
to
them.
So
thank
you
so
much
and
molly
and
michelle
you
guys
as
well.
You
guys
you
guys
have
been
there
for
me
since
day,
one
as
well,
you
guys
molly,
I
would
be
lost
without
you
and
same
with
you
michelle.
You
guys
have
kept
me
straight
through
the
whole
process
and
everybody
on
the
side.
You
guys
I've
gotten
to
know
as
well
kathy
lane
kathy
cubic
anthony
alston.
L
C
All
right,
I'm
gonna,
try
to
do
this
without
crying
it's
time
to
say
goodbye
to
kevin
after
six
great
years
of
service.
E
G
G
I
just
want
to
say
that
you
have
been
a
a
passionate
voice
for
the
children
of
anne
arundel
county
and
your
your
dedication
and
your
devotion
has
shown
every
meeting
every
moment
that
you've
been
here
and
that
you've
been
a
member
of
this
board
and
you
will
certainly
be
missed,
and
I
not
only
hope
that
you
will
continue
to
be
a
passionate
voice.
I
know
that
you
will
continue
to
be
a
passionate
voice
for
the
students
of
this
county
after
you
are
gone
and
you
move
on.
G
So
thank
you
for
your
service
and
you
will
definitely
be
missed.
D
D
You
know
it's
we've
gone
through
some
difficult
times
and
some
challenging
times,
but
always
always
have
known
that
it's
about
what
we're
doing
for
kids
and
the
adults
as
well,
and
making
sure
that
we're
making
decisions
that
are
positive
for
our
school
system
and
and
one
of
the
ways
that
I
think
out
of
the
five
years
that
you
served
before
this
last
year,
absolutely
shows
your
passion
and
your
compassion
for
kids
and
and
for
the
fact
that
you're
sitting
in
a
seat
that
you
had
no
idea,
you're,
gonna,
fill
and
unfortunately,
that's
not
what
happened.
D
But
the
fact
of
the
matter
is
that
you
willingly
stayed
there
and
and
kept
working
forward
and
moving
forward.
It'd.
Be
quite
easy
for
you
to
have
said.
You
know
what
I'm
done
or
just
to
sit
there
and
and
you
could
have
changed
and
been
an
antagonist
or
you
could
have
just
not
done
anything.
You
could
have
just
sat
there
as
a
filler,
and
so
I
think
that
speaks
highly
of
your
character
and
and
what
you
have
done,
and
I
think
that
you
know
as
one
door
closes
another
door
opens.
D
I
believe
that
brady
will
be
starting
school
shortly,
yeah
at
well,
I
mean
for
in
kindergarten
yeah,
and
so
I
do
know
that
they
enjoy
volunteers
in
the
classrooms.
D
So
I
so
I
you
know
want
to
put
that
out
there,
because
you
know
that's
sometimes
the
best
way
to
do
those
things,
and
so
I
appreciate
that
and
and
all
that
you
know
you
continue
to
do,
and
so
I
say
to
you:
mahala,.
C
J
Well,
kevin:
it's
it's
been
a
a
fantastic
time
working
with
you,
you
were
the
first
board
member
that
reached
out
to
me
when
I
came
on
the
board
so
so
many
long
years
ago,
and
I've
respected
everything
that
I've
seen
from
you,
your
energy,
your
diligence,
your
attention
to
details,
definitely
going
to
be
missed.
J
L
Kevin
the
first
time
that
I
actually
sat
down
with
you
was
at
panera
and
you
I
didn't
know
what
to
expect.
I
had
asked
elsa
to
give
me
a
little
run
down
beforehand
and
she
said
all
she
said
to
me:
was
it's
a
good
day
to
be
alive,
because
if
you
guys
know
kevin,
that's
how
he
that's,
how
he
greets
everybody.
He
says
it's
a
good
day
to
be
alive
when
you
ask
him
how
he's
doing
and
the
positive
attitude
and
the
positivity
as
a
whole
that
he
brings
to
our
board.
L
He
has,
he
voices
an
opinion,
but
he
does
it
so
calm
and
collected,
and
I
know
that,
even
though
I
won't
be
on
the
board
next
year
that
we're
gonna
miss
you
and
we're
gonna
miss
everything
that
you've
brought
to
us
and
I'm
definitely
gonna
miss
the
friendship
and
the
relationship
that
we
have
built
this
past
year.
I
look
up
to
you
as
someone
who
inspires
me
and
someone
who's,
a
good
father
and
a
good
board
member
and
just
an
overall
good
person
in
the
community.
M
I
had
another
meeting,
I'm
sorry
I
was
late.
I
didn't
want
to
miss.
Thank
you
kevin.
Thank
you
for
all
the
leadership
you
had
demonstrated.
You
have
worked
really
hard
on
our
policy
committee.
I
think
this
board
last
year
pulled
together
so
strongly
when
we
were
hiring
our
wonderful
superintendent
and
kevin
kevin
and
and
stacy,
and
I
made
many
visits
together
to
other
boards
to
talk
with
them
and
find
out
how
they
did
this,
because
we
we
recognized
that
this
was
an
absolutely
huge
huge
undertaking.
M
We
felt
the
the
weight
of
the
system
on
our
shoulders.
I
mean
we
were
going
to
be.
We
were
charged
with
selecting
the
next
superintendent
and
kevin
really
really
worked
hard
on.
That
he's
also
shown
many
a
lot
of
leadership
in
our
state
organization
made.
So
I
just
want
to
thank
you
kevin
and
your
friendship
has
meant
a
lot.
Your
family
is
wonderful.
I
I
think
you're
you're
blessed
with
monique
and
and
those
lovely
children,
and
you
will
be
missed.
F
Indeed,
so
from
your
colleagues
and
listening
to
their
comments,
I
I
don't
want
to
be
too
repetitive
and,
and
so
I'll
say,
ditto
your
due
diligence,
your
attention
to
detail
your
willingness
to
challenge
the
three
different
superintendents
you've
worked
with
for
what
you
really
believe
are
the
for
the
good
of
the
children.
Those
are
all
things
that
are
to
be
commended.
F
I
also
want
to
reiterate
what
mrs
ritchie
brought
forward
in
her
comments
in
that
you
could
have
you,
you
served
a
five-year
term
well
and
you
could
have
walked
away
and
because
of
your
dedication,
you
stayed
on
for
another
year
and
there
aren't
many
people
that
would
do
that
and
not
knowing
what
the
future
would
ride
from
literally
one
day
to
the
next,
for
you
and
other
candidates,
as
we
move
forward
through
the
process,
you
continued
with
your
due
diligence,
never
knowing
when
the
last
day
may
be
or
that
you'd
serve
another
term
and-
and
that
is
publicly
needs
to
be
commended,
and
I
thank
you
for
that.
F
What
I
will
what
I
will
always
finally
remember
and-
and
let
me
let
me
make
clear
you're
not
going
anywhere.
We
know
where
you
are:
we
know
where
you
live,
your
your
children,
your
your
your
family,
your
extended
family
is
a
long
tradition
in
this
county.
Your
children
will
be
part
of
this
county
for
many
years
to
come.
F
I
will
finally
remember
you
inviting
me
and
my
wife
and
I
into
your
home
with
you
and
your
wonderful
wife
and
our
ability
to
break
bread
together
and
just
share
some
some
commonalities
to
learn
more
about
each
other
and
I'll
always
remember
that
and
I'll.
Thank
you
for
inviting
me
into
your
home.
F
So
is
that,
as
is
our
custom,
we
we
do
have
a
collage
for
you
and
and
enjoy
whatever
whatever
life
brings,
but
you're
a
busy
man
as
it
is,
and
so
you'll
you'll
find
some
extra
time
to
get
to
soccer
practice
with
with
your
children,
so
enjoy
that
time.
H
As
many
of
you
know,
I'm
not
a
man
of
few
words,
but
today
will
be
different
with
a
new
chief
comes
new
deputies
and
with
new
deputies
come
new
appointees,
and
so
life
goes
on
I'll
leave
you
with
just
a
few
words
from
colin
powell.
He
said
these
words
in
my
when
I
was
a
second
class
midshipman
at
a
four
stall
lecture
at
the
naval
academy.
H
Let
your
word
be
your
bond,
tell
the
truth,
work
with
people
uprightly
and
they
may
or
may
not
deal
with
you
the
same
way,
but
that's
okay,
you'll
be
able
to
go
home
and
look
yourself
in
the
mirror
and
know
that
your
word
was
your
bond,
and
so
I
thank
my
wife.
Thank
you
so
much
monique
for
being
here.
Thank
you
for
all
that
you
do
and
have
done
to
give
us
what
we
have
today
our
relationship.
H
Thank
you
for
giving
me
six
years
of
you
being
at
home
and
me
running
all
over
this
county
and
everywhere
else
to
include
what
you
remind
me
fondly
of
is
my
real
job,
which
is
not
this,
and
I
appreciate
you
giving
that
time
and
hopefully
I'll
be
able
to
do
the
things
kind
of
as
dr
alado
you
mentioned,
take
brady
to
soccer
practice,
because
I
am
going
to
be
an
assistant
coach
on
a
soccer
team
and
take
kaylie
to
piano
practice
and
what
in
swimming
practice,
so
that
she
can
do
those
things
as
she
grows
up,
and
the
last
thing
I'd
like
to
say
is:
there's
going
to
be
a
celebration,
we
can
talk
to
talk,
but
deeds
show
a
whole
lot
more
than
just
words.
H
H
So
there's
a
triple
crown
celebration:
one
is
my
nephew.
Our
nephew
david
bruce
turns
nine
and
he's
a
fourth
of
july.
Baby
it'll
be
his
ninth
birthday,
so
we'll
have
moon,
bounces
and
we're
gonna.
Have
the
pool
open
and
we're
gonna
have
ping
pong
anybody
any
ping
pong
players
out
there,
because,
if
you're
a
ping
pong
player,
I
challenge
you
that
happens
to
be
my
sport
and
then
we're
the
second
portion
of
the
crown
monique's
promotion.
That
happened
a
little
while
ago.
H
We're
gonna
celebrate
that
and
then
my
six
years
of
service,
you
all,
are
invited
three
to
nine
p.m,
come
and
go
as
you
desire
to
and
we're
going
to
have
a
good
time
a
good
celebration.
So
thank
you.
Man.
A
C
I
I
I
I
he's
been
very
kind
to
me
recently
and
some
of
the
things
that
have
gone
on
in
my
family.
He
had
a
stroke
recently
and
I'm
going
to
ask
dr
alato
and
the
board
to
send
a
kind
note
to
him
he's
one
of
those
fellows
that
got
me
interested
in
the
school
board.
When
the
budget
came
out,
he
went
over
it
not
only
page
by
page,
but
line
by
line.
I
Now.
Let
me
move
forward
to
my
good
friend,
kevin
jackson.
Lieutenant
commander
jackson,
kevin
you've
been
you've
done
an
enormous
number
of
things
on
the
board.
You
live
a
long
way
from
the
school
board.
You
work
at
the
pentagon.
I
don't
know
how
you
found
the
time
to
do
that,
and
yet
somehow
you
managed
to
find
enough
time
to
have
some
of
the
longest
breakfasts
with
me
than
I've
ever
had
in
my
life
you've.
Given
me
an
enormous
amount
of
time.
L
Today
we
honor
an
educator
in
our
school
system,
who
is
the
epitome
of
the
mahatma
gandhi
quote,
be
the
change
you
wish
to
see
in
the
world,
for
not
only
is
she,
the
teacher
of
fourth
grade
curriculum
at
central
elementary
school.
She
is
a
teacher
of
empathy
and
compassion
when
one
walks
into
kathleen
simmons
class.
The
first
thing
that
is
obvious,
is
a
classroom
of
students
writing
enthusiastically,
but
if
it
were
last
year,
one
may
also
have
noticed
many
of
the
students
wearing
adorable
knit
caps.
L
This
was
not
a
fashion
statement.
It
was
a
statement
of
support
for
a
student
who
had
a
medical
condition
causing
hair
loss
when
the
child's
parents
came
to
miss
simmons.
To
let
her
know
the
child's
condition
kathleen
immediately
thought.
How
can
I
help
the
answer
was
putting
her
knitting
needles
to
work.
She
knitted
caps
for
some
of
the
other
girls
in
the
class,
so
katie
wouldn't
be
self-conscious.
L
That
was
followed
by
something
more
amazing.
The
boys
join
in
too,
and
caps
for
katie
was
born,
kathleen
simmons,
knitted,
a
cab
for
each
child
in
her
classroom,
and
the
kids
proudly
wore
them
all
year.
Long
during
a
time
when
bullying
stories
topped
the
news,
ms
simmons
class
learned
a
lesson,
they
will
never
forget
empathy
and
compassion.
L
Her
students
have
a
strong
connection
to
each
other.
This
lesson
will
carry
them
through
elementary
and
middle
school,
always
remembering
the
kindness
of
a
teacher
who
taught
them
all
how
to
accept
and
support
a
friend.
The
sense
of
empathy
and
compassion
is
especially
poignant
at
central
elementary
school,
which
houses
special
education
cluster
sites.
There
is
an
atmosphere
of
trust
and
kindness
that
is
exuded
here.
Caps
for
katie
is
an
example
of
how
mrs
simmons
and
her
class
went
above
and
beyond
to
reach
out
to
students.
L
L
She
is
always
there
for
her
students,
kathleen
simmons
you're,
a
change
you
wanted
to
see
in
your
school.
You
are
the
teacher
that
many
children
in
past
and
years
past,
their
elementary
school
days
will
remember.
You
will
be
remembered
for
for
your
empathy
and
for
your
compassion
and
each
and
every
child
has
benefited
from
those
wonderful
qualities.
L
A
N
I
have
to
admit
I'm
slightly
disappointed.
I
thought
I'd
be
speaking
about
m
cubed
and
mentoring
mathematical
minds
in
my
classroom,
so
I
was
thinking
about
all
the
ways
that
I
could
talk
about.
How
that
program
is
helping.
My
students
show
perseverance
and
growth
in
their
math
medical
skills,
so
I
was
well
tripped.
Thank
you.
N
My
wonderful
husband
is
here
ronald
simmons
and
both
of
my
children,
who
are
of
course
part
of
our
wonderful
anne
arundel,
county
public
school
system,
audrey
simmons,
who
is
now
at
university
of
maryland,
and
my
son,
william,
who
is
a
junior,
rising
senior
at
arundel
high
school.
So
thank
you
so
much
for
showing
up
to
support
me.
I'm
very
surprised
and
of
course,
my.

Much
work
is
done
behind
the
scenes
to
ensure
that
all
high
school
students
are
prepared
for
post-secondary
education
and
the
workforce,
and
working
in
support
of
this
goal
is
an
employee
who
is
a
strong
advocate
for
the
business
and
internship
programs
that
make
the
program
the
success.
It
is

she's
always
looking
for

above
and
beyond
what
it
takes
to
add
new
programs
and
expand
on

programs.
G
G
G
Miss

displays
a
high
degree
of
willingness

Tammy
diedrick,
you
hold
a
vital
position
in
our
school
system.
Without
your
dedication
and
hard
work,
the
cte
program
would
not
be
as
it
is.
Today.
G
You
facilitate
the
acquisition
of
internships
for
students,
so
they
may
continue
to
thrive

journey
and

Here
well.
O
I
thought
it
was
coming
to
talk
about
the
new
law
for
the
maryland
pre-apprenticeship
programs,
which
is
going
to
be
an
awesome
thing
for
our.
O
And
our
internship
program-
okay,
very
excited
my
boss-
is
pretty
tricky.
Okay,
she's
saying
you
know
it
might
be
a
little
while
and
they
might
call
us
up,
and
so
this
is,
but
we
did
call
you
a
prize.
O
Q
G
O
And
my
beautiful
daughter
who
I'm
just
so
proud
of
all
that
she's
done
and
I'm
so
excited

see.
O
Yeah,

as
I
woke
her
up
this
morning
and
said,

great
day:

sneaky
little

in
anne
arundel
me
and
stand
up
back
there
guys,
because
I
can't
she

there
every
day
working
for
the
students,
and
so

In
september
2007,
the
board
of
education
was
blessed
with
an
enthusiastic
and
energetic
volunteer
to
assist
us
in
the
selection
process
for
choosing
the
winners
of
the
educator
and
the
employee
of
the
month,
a
program
that
has
been
in
existence
since
nineteen.
Eighty
six,
mr
tony
anzaloni,
an
already
active
member
of
the
retired
school
personnel
association
of
anne
arundel
county
volunteered
to
put
a
new
committee
together
and
get
right
to
work
to
enhance
the
program.
J
J
J
His
efforts
to
make
the
program
all
inclusive
have
not
gone
unnoticed
as
he
sees
just
as
much
importance
in
awarding
as
secretary
or
custodian
as
he
does
awarding
a
certified
employee
or
a
administrator
tony
takes
pleasure
in
recognizing
employees
in
a
theme
related
way.
A
top-notch
administrative
assistant,
for
example,
is
awarded
in
april
because
of
administrative
professionals
day.
A
school's
media
specialist
in
march
is
honored
on
read
across
america
day.
Tony
always
has
a
purpose
having
the
responsibility
to
present
the
selections
monthly
before
the
board
of
education.
J
Tony
is
also
involved
in
the
annapolis
elks
lodge
most
valuable
student
scholarship
program,
tony
anzaloni,
the
members
of
the
board,
want
to
personally
thank
you
for
everything
you
do
for
the
board
and
for
the
school
system.
You
have
truly
enhanced
the
educator
and
employee
of
the
month
program,
taking
it
from
good
to
great.

Well,
my
wife
carolyn
who's
supposed
to
be
a
brunch
to
the
senior
center
okay
beside
her
is
betty
coleman.
Betty
coleman,
by
the
way
just
has
been
named
as
one
of
the
maryland
senior
city
hall
of
fame's
nominees
behind
her
is
larry

who's
a
member
of
the
committee,
but
he's
also
on
the
committee
to
choose
the
educator
employee
of
the
month.
Beside
larry
is
charles
gable.
Charlie
gable
is
the
past
president
of
the
harspa,
and
there.
B
R
I
do
want
to
thank
the
board
all
of
you
for
your
support.
It
really
has
been
amazing.
I
appreciate
the
way
that
you
read
the
the
information
on
the
of
the
the
script
that
I
know
that
molly
has
has
written.
So
I
do
thank
you
for
your
support.
I
also
want
to
thank
molly
and
michelle.
R
They
have
been
absolutely
a
good
support
system
for
me
and
getting
this
program
better
than
than
it
was
when
I
first
took
over
a
thousand
years
ago-
and
I
also
want
to
thank
my
committee
members-
they
really
are
a
hard
working
team.
So
thank
all
of
you.
Thank
you
again.
L
So,
as
you
guys
know,
graduation
season
is
here,
so
I
got
the
honor
and
the
privilege
of
attending
three
graduations
on
tuesday,
as
well
as
my
own
on
wednesday
and
the
three
graduations
I
went
to.
It
was
interesting
because
I
went
to
severna
parks
in
the
morning
at
umbc
and
then
I
went
to
I
went
to
north
counties
at
the
equestrian
center
and
then
I
went
to
chesapeake
science
points
at
chesapeake
science
point
and
they
were
all
very
different
and
they
were
all
very
special
like
how
they
did.
The
proceedings
was
differently
chesapeake.
L
So
it's
a
lot.
It's
a
lot
smaller.
So
it
was
a
lot
more
intimate,
but
at
each
one
of
them
that
I
went
to
you
could
tell
that
all
the
hard
work
that
the
students
had
put
in
for
the
past
four
years
is
finally
coming
together
and
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you
for
the
opportunity
for
letting
me
go
to
those
and
be
a
part
of
the
celebration
with
those
students,
because
if
you
think
about
it,
the
12
years
that
they
go
through
our
system,
it
finally
comes
together
at
that
ceremony.
D
Oh,
I
should
did
anybody
come
in
that
you
might
be
related
to.
D
D
But,
first
and
foremost,
all
of
the
things
we
said
were
wonderful
things,
but
to
you
we
also
say
thank
you
very
much
for
allowing
her
to
be
a
part
of
this
and
and
you
did
a
fantastic
job,
and
so
thank
you,
but
that
wasn't
my
public
participation
part.
I
wanted
to
talk
about
the
highlights
as
well.
I've
also
had
the
opportunity
to
go
to
graduations
and-
and
you
know
sometimes
it's
a
little
bit
overwhelming
when
you
drive
up
to
prince
george's
and
then
you
drive
to
baltimore
county
and
then
you
drive
back
to.
D
But
the
fact
is
that
they're
really
great
they're
really
fun.
This
year
I
was
able
to
attend
north
east
and
chesapeake
high
school
and
both
of
them
graduated
from
their
schools.
D
So
I
have
flashbacks,
then
you
know
from
when
I
was
graduating
and
graduating
from
the
field
in
severna
park,
and
it
it's
just
it's
a
it's
an
overwhelming
feeling,
because
you,
you
really,
I
don't
know
any
of
the
kids
there,
but
I
really
feel
that
I
did
and
I
and
I'm
just
always
thrilled
to
be
able
to
be
a
part
of
that,
and
that's
that's
always
been
one
of
the
highlights
of
being
on.
D
The
board,
I
think,
is,
is
being
able
to
attend
the
graduations
and
the
administrators
and
and
the
staff
that
have
really
taken
the
time
to
ensure
that
the
the
program
is
a
dignified
program
but
also
lets
the
kids
have
an
opportunity
to
to
reflect
on
on
what
they've
gone
through
and
the
listening
to
the
valedictorian
salutatorian
and
the
class
president
speak
are
just
it's
just
amazing
because
and
then
the
selfies
that
that's
always
kind
of
fun
too.
But
anyway,
I
had
a
really
great
time,
and
I
appreciate
that.
Thank
you.
M
I
have
really
have
to
echo
my
fellow
board
members.
One
of
the
highlights
of
every
year
is
our
attendance
at
the
different
graduations
and,
as
aisha
said,
they're
all
very
different.
One
of
the
I've
been
to
broadneck.
I
went
to
southern
in
south
river
high
school
so
far,
one
of
the
young
men
that
spoke
this
speaker,
I
believe
it
was
broadneck,
remarked
that
he
was
in
the
low
group
in
first
grade
in
mrs
balzano's
reading
group
and
I
called
her
because
she
was
one
of
my
teachers
at
davidsonville.
M
M
This
is
what
our
system
does
and
I've
seen
it
over
and
over
and
over
again,
and
it
just
warms
my
heart
when
I
see
these
students
who
start
out
and
they
have
various
struggles
and
then
they
they
do
these
remarkable
things.
So
that's
the
celebration,
but
when
he
said
that
in
his
speech
I
thought
wow,
I
was
so
thrilled
to
hear
that
and
to
have
all
these
kids.
I
went
home
and
told
my
grandchildren
and
I
said,
he's
going
to
be
a
brain
surgeon.
You
can
too
you
know.
M
So
it's
just
wonderful
and
and
all
of
these
commencements
were
great.
M
I
have
to
always
comment
on
my
south
river
high
school
kids,
because
the
graduates
this
year
were
my
fourth
graders,
when
I
retired
that's
kind
of
scary,
to
think,
but
I
was
very
happy
when
I
saw
anna
sappington
give
the
salutatorian
speech.
He
was
one
of
my
davidsonville
outstanding
students,
so
that
was
it.
It's
always
exciting
to
go
down
the
list
of
graduates,
say:
oh
there's,
davidsonville
they're,
you
know
have
a
little
special
heart
for
them.
M
M
Doing
all
this
organizing
of
that
and
charles
gable
was
there.
I
saw
he.
He
was
speaking
he's
here
today,
what
an
what
a
celebration,
what
a
celebration
and
over
and
over
I'm
seeing
less
and
less
of
my
friends
because
they're
all
retiring,
but
when
bill
yokitis
came
down
retired
music
teacher
and
played
his
instrument
all
the
way
down
the
red
carpet.
It
brought
the
house
down
wonderful
celebration
and
florie
bizzella.
Does
such
a
good
job
at
planning?
It
too,
I
mean
it's
just
really.
G
I
want
to
I've
also
been
to
a
few
graduations.
I
want
to
echo
the
the
the
compliments
and
just
just
my
amazement,
at
how
wonderful
all
the
graduations
are.
I
I
was
especially
attached
when
I
was
at
north
county
high
school
when
they
had
some
special
recognitions
for
their
classmates
sonny,
who
they
lost
in
a
in
a
tragic
fire
earlier
this
year,
and
it
was
quite
touching
and
you
could
tell
that
the
class
really
had
pulled
together
in
in
memory
of
their
classmate,
and
that
was
it
was
very
touching
tomorrow.
G
I
also
had
the
opportunity
this
past
weekend
to
go
speak
to
a
boy
scout
troop
that
was
doing
a
merit
badge
on
citizenship,
to
talk
to
them
about
common
core
for
about
an
hour,
and
I
want
to
say
they
had
some
very
good
questions.
They
had
some
very
insightful
questions
and
they
they
all
had
to
ask
a
question
because
they
had
to
interview
me.
G
So
everyone
was
required
to
ask
a
question,
but
they
did
have
some
very
good
questions
and-
and
I
was
pleased
because
we
ended
up-
you
know
there
was
a
very
good
conversation
going
and
they,
I
think,
a
lot
of
their
questions
may
have
come
from
their
parents.
G
I'm
not
sure,
but
but
it
was
a
good
conversation
and
I
was
happy
to
spend
an
hour
with
a
group
of
kids,
some
private
schools,
some
homeschooled
and
some
public
schooled
who
all
had
questions
about
common
core
if
it
impacted
them
and
in
what
ways-
and
I
was
pleased
to
be
able
to
do
that.
F
It
is
that
time
of
year,
where,
where
we're
out,
if
not
six
nights
a
week,
it's
seven
nights
a
week
and
afternoons
and
mornings
really
celebrating
the
people
celebrating
our
students
again
it's
that
time
of
year,
and
it
really
is
wonderful
and
it
is
really
is
reaffirming,
as
my
colleagues
here
on
the
board
have
have
talked
about
about
the
work
that
we're
doing
about
the
work
of
our
of
our
educators
out
in
the
schools
and
our
community
members
and
our
volunteers
and
our
parents,
so
graduations
are
off
and
running
as
as
you've
heard,
they've
been
fabulous,
they
all
are
very
different,
but
let
me
emphasize
that
they're,
all
the
same
in
terms
of
their
student
focused
any
one
of
our
graduations
while
different
in
in
makeup.
F
They
all
focus
on
students,
it's
not
about
adults,
talking
to
students,
it's
about
students
talking
to
students,
they've
developed
it.
The
bands
are
playing,
the
choruses
are
singing
and
they
really
are
a
celebration
of
the
students
and
their
time
with
us
and
their
four
years
in
high
school.
So
they
really
are
fabulous.
Our
retiree
reception,
florey
and
your
team
was
fabulous.
It
is
a
great
way
to
celebrate
the
lives
and
legacies
of
the
folks
that
have
spent
so
many
years
with
us.
So
thank
you
for
that.
F
I
got
a
chance
to
participate
with
the
blue.
The
state
superintendent,
dr
lowry's
blue,
ribbon
tour
of
excellence.
F
We
had
one
earlier
in
the
year
with
lakeshore
elementary
school
being
chosen
as
a
blue
ribbon
school
keeping
in
mind,
ladies
and
gentlemen,
that
of
the
1400
plus
schools
in
the
mix
for
the
blue
ribbon
in
the
state.
Six
are
chosen
each
year.
Two
of
them
are
from
anne
arundel
county,
and
this
past
week
we
got
to
celebrate
severna
park
elementary
school
and
their
blue
ribbon,
and
both
those
schools
will
move
on
to
the
national
level
and
competition
for
nationals,
and
we
are
very
proud
of
them
relay
for
life.
F
F
Our
brigade
at
arundel
at
the
community
college
on
saturday
afternoon,
mr
truffer
and
our
brigade
do
a
fabulous
job,
raise
an
incredible
amount
of
money
for
a
worthy
cause
and
those
of
you
that
don't
know
this
is
one
of
two
non-profit
groups
that
we
support
as
a
system,
because
we
really
want
our
students
to
know
and
understand
the
larger
community
around
them,
and
this
is
one
with
relay
for
life
and
celebrating
those
that
are
cancer
survivors
and
celebrating
the
lives
of
of
those
lost
through
cancer.
F
And
it
is
one
of
our
ways
of
reaching
our
students
beyond
the
classroom,
and
so
I
was
glad
to
participate
and
glad
that
we
as
a
system
embrace
this
group,
I
got
a
chance
to
visit
the
point,
pleasant,
annex
and
our
birth
to
five
programs
with
ms
corbilak.
I
also
got
a
chance
to
visit
last
week.
One
afternoon
I
spent
with
the
hero
boys
running
club
at
woodside
elementary.
They
were
prepping
for
their
5k
run
this
past
sunday,
I'm
sure
they
did
a
great
job.
They
had
lots
of
questions
for
me.
F
They've
had
lots
of
great
guest
speakers
throughout
the
the
year
and
I
got
a
chance
to
be
with
them
on
their
last
meeting
before
they
ran
their
5k
and
lastly,
a
highlight
for
me
in
the
past
two
weeks
is:
I
spent
an
entire
lunch
period
with
the
students
at
tyler
heights.
Last
week
the
students
were
absolutely
wonderful.
F
Lunch
was
delicious,
we
had
cheeseburgers,
and
so
that
was
a
treat
for
me
to
sit
down
and
actually
have
lunch,
but
I
got
to
stay
through
all
the
lunches
and
help
the
students
and
they
they
take,
turns
cleaning
off
the
tabletops
and
and
having
conversations
with
me,
we
even
did
some
dancing,
which
was
a
lot
of
fun.
So
it's
been
a
it's
been.
P
F
Two
weeks-
and
it
is
that
time
of
year,
so
thank
you.
No,
no
photos,
no
photos.
Let
me
let
me
close
with
regarding
graduations,
for
those
of
you
that
were
were
not
at
arundel's,
graduation,
miss
corbilak,
spoke
and
and
welcomed
and
congratulated
the
students
and
she
produced
a
top
ten
list.
I
am
certain
that
that
is
that
is
trending
on
twitter
and
or
youtube.
F
So
I
would
not
be
surprised
if
you
don't,
if
you've
not
seen
it.
You
need
to.
You
need
to
see
this
top
10
list.
It
is
fabulous
and
very
well
received.
So
thank
you.
C
I
wanted
to
give
a
shout
out
to
all
of
the
vocalists
and
musicians
that
have
been
in
our
graduations,
the
ones
I've
attended
and
the
ones
I've
heard
about
they're,
just
a
fantastic
display
of
the
talent
we
have
in
this
county
and
the
severna
park
blue
ribbon
celebration.
Just
to
make
a
note
that,
with
that
the
addition
of
severna
park
elementary
every
single
school
in
this
foreign
park,
cluster
is
now
blue,
ribbon
school,
which
is
huge
and
at
point
pleasant.
C
I
had
never
had
a
chance
to
visit
our
birth
to
five
program,
and
I
was
just
stunned
to
learn
that
we
are
getting
referrals
of
about
1200
children
a
year.
800
of
them
are
coming
from
pediatricians
who
are
identifying
children
even
before
they
hit
age.
Three,
seeing
issues
that
they
might
have
that
need
to
be
addressed
so
that
we
can
address
them
before
kindergarten
in
hopes
that
they
will
be
able
to
join
the
kindergarten
program
prepared
and
ready
to
learn.
C
S
Good
morning,
my
report
is
sort
of
lackluster.
After
all
of
those
accolades,
we
had
our
final
meeting
of
the
year
this
past
monday.
On
june
1st,
due
to
the
monsoon,
we
had
many
members
that
weren't
able
to
make
it
if
I
can
call
it
a
monsoon,
and
so
we
did
not
have
quorum.
Instead,
we
had
an
informal
discussion
on
the
county
budget,
that's
being
proposed
and
discussed
ways
that
the
community
could
voice
opinion
on
specific
line
items.
S
S
The
equity
committee
had
forwarded
their
reports,
which
you
guys
will
receive
as
soon
as
I
can
find
it
on
my
computer
and
I'll
share
with
you.
The
other
committees
have
all
deferred
their
reports
to
the
fall,
because
they're
continuing
with
some
discussions
and
working
on
finalizing
details-
and
I
wanted
to
say-
I
have
enjoyed
the
opportunity
to
serve
as
chair
of
the
cac
this
year
and
look
forward
to
welcoming
our
new
members
and
new
leadership
in
the
fall.
S
As
you
begin
to
look
at
the
2015-16
year,
I
urge
you
to
utilize
and
recognize
the
members
of
the
cac
as
the
vital
resource
that
they
are.
The
cac
has
representatives
from
every
cluster
in
the
county
and
the
members
are
ready,
willing
and
eager
to
help
and
talk
about
issues
that
are
concerning
our
students.
So
thank
you.

This
time
is
intended
for
speakers
to
voice
their
opinion
and
not
necessarily
as
a
question
and
answer
period.
Speakers
may
pose
questions,
but
answers
will
be
counted
toward
the
three-minute
allotment.
For
the
record,
please
give
your
name
before
you
speak
and
handouts
should
be
given
to
our
board
assistant.
T
T
Shadyside
elementary
is
a
wonderful
school
in
which
both
of
my
children
have
made
great
strides
with
their
education.
I
credit
the
teachers
and
staff
our
school's
last
renovation
was
never
fully
completed,
leaving
our
classrooms
in
an
open
format
separated
only
by
six
foot
high
partitions.
The
children
have
adjusted
well
to
these
classrooms,
but
they
tend
to
become
distracted
very
easily
at
times
from
the
surrounding
classrooms.
T
T
This
would
mean
that
each
class
would
have
approximately
35
plus
students,
in
addition
to
the
boy-to-girl
ratio
issue.
There
are
a
number
of
students
with
504
plans,
my
son,
being
one
of
those
students.
If
the
class
sizes
are
not
reduced,
the
teachers
will
be
put
in
a
very
challenging
position
of
trying
to
maintain
an
orderly
classroom
while
staying
on
task
and
completing
the
curriculum,
not
to
mention
that
it
will
be
next
to
impossible
to
provide
accommodations
in
accordance
with
the
needs
of
each
child
specific
504
plan.
T
T
The
projected
number
of
students
per
class
in
first
grade
would
then
become
26
or
more
in
an
open
classroom.
There
would
be
four
classes
moving
up
from
first.
Oh,
I'm
sorry
scratch
that
part
in
response
to
an
email
that
I
received
from
raymond
bibow,
I
believe
yesterday
he
stated-
and
I
quote
in
general
grades,
one
through
three
are
staffed
at
a
ratio
of
one
teacher
per
25
students.
T
If
any
of
our
teachers
are
eliminated
from
shadyside
elementary,
there
is
no
math
known
to
man
that
would
be
able
to
calculate
a
formula
for
those
ratios
to
be
established
by
the
board
of
education
by
losing
three
teachers
in
our
school.
It
would
greatly
affect
not
only
my
children
but
the
entire
school,
I'm
a
very
proud
parent
of
two
children
who
attend
shadyside
elementary,
and
I
truly
believe
that
their
education
is
in
jeopardy.
T
U
My
son,
at
the
risk
of
sounding
immodest,
is
profoundly
gifted
in
math
and
our
school's
principal
has
said
he
is
one
of
the
most
talented
math
students
he
has
ever
seen.
He
was
advanced
to
grade
in
kindergarten
after
kindergarten,
yet
he
has
remained
unchallenged
by
the
math
curriculum
every
year.
He
has
consistently
been
at
the
top
of
his
class,
even
with
the
older
children.
He
is
at
least
two
years
ahead
in
ability
and
based
on
common
core
online
testing
can
easily
test
out
of
sixth
grade
math.
At
this
time.
U
In
his
current
class
staff
has
noted
that
he
appears
bored
and
he
has
even
been
enlisted
to
teach
advanced
topics
to
his
class.
Following
an
unsatisfactory
response,
I
have
a
meeting
scheduled
with
the
advanced
learner
office,
whose
only
suggestion
to
date
has
been
differentiated
instruction
in
the
fifth
grade
classroom
next
year.
My
son
will
have
already
completed
fifth
grade
math
and
he
is
expected
to
sit
in
an
overcrowded
classroom
of
more
than
35
children
in
an
open
classroom
school
wherein
behavior
and
attention
problems
already
eat
up
much
of
the
instruction
time.
U
Just
yesterday
my
son
came
home
and
he
was
upset
that
people
in
his
class
making
trouble
ate
up
two-thirds
of
their
music
lesson.
Given
the
current
problems,
it
is
untenable
to
think
that
any
real
learning
will
take
place
in
an
enlarged
class.
This
is
sad,
especially
when
fifth
grade
is
a
time
to
prepare
students
for
the
rigor
of
middle
school.
U
For
my
son
expecting
a
fifth
grade
teacher
with
an
overcrowded
classroom
to
also
guide
him
in
an
independent
math
lesson
is
absurd.
A
top
priority.
The
advanced
learner
program
has
to
be
my
son,
I'm
only
asking
that
he
be
afforded
the
same
right
to
access
the
stem
6-7
curriculum
as
the
other
high-performing
students
in
his
fifth
grade
math
class.
At
the
time
my
son
was
advanced
to
grade.
We
were
told
by
the
then
principle
that
there
would
be
many
options
when
this
time
came,
including
attending
the
middle
school
for
math.
U
U
So
few
kids
understand
math
at
this
level
and
to
fail
to
meet
their
needs
is
shameful.
Please
do
not
let
my
son
and
the
rest
of
these
students
get
lost
in
the
short-sighted
budget
cuts.
Our
meeting
with
miss
talar's
office
next
week
needs
to
put
in
place
the
stem
6-7
math
curriculum
for
my
son.
Otherwise
I
should
like
to
enlist
the
assistance
of
dr
arlato's
office.
Thank
you
very
much
for
your
time.
V
V
State
approved
capacity
is
23
students
for
the
state
of
maryland.
In
2011,
the
reasonable
ratio
from
the
cac
executive
reduced
that
num
increased.
That
number
slightly
pre-k
is
one
to

kindergarten
is
one
to
eighteen.
First,
through
third
grade
is
one
to
twenty
five
and
fourth
and
fifth
grade
is
one
to
twenty.
Eight
open
classrooms
have
been
a
disruption
for
our
students
for
quite
many
years
now.
V
It's
not
conducive
to
learning
experiences
experience
and
we
are
dealing
with
that,
the
best
of
our
ability,
if
you
add
students
to
that
classroom
and
the
classroom
surrounding
it,
it's
only
going
to
increase
the
problem
that
we're
already
fighting
our
first
grade.
Students
are
for
2015-2016
school
year
is
anticipated
to
be
about
80
students.
If
we
only
have
two
teachers,
that's
going
to
be
about
40
students
per
classroom,
and
if
we
have
three
teachers,
it'll
still
be
27
more
than
the
allotted
state
recommendation
or
the
cac
recommendation.
V
The
fifth
grade
is
is
scheduled
to
have
72
students
next
year
and
with
two
teachers.
That's
36
students
per
class.
The
average
ratio
right
now
for
boys
to
girls
is
about
44
boys
and
28
girls.
So
you're
almost
doubling
the
amount
of
boys
that
are
in
the
classroom
and
yes,
our
principal
is,
has
been
asked
to
look
at
the
school
as
an
entirety
and
shuffle
positions
which
will
only
cause
issues
throughout
the
whole
school.
V
V
Our
classroom
is
open
and
we
have
no
lockers
to
help
with
the
belongings,
which
means
that
a
lot
of
students
have
their
their
belongings
put
together.
So
you
stack
a
bunch
of
jackets
on
top
of
each
other.
It's
a
health
risk.
There's
lots
of
lots
of
open
issues
for
life,
skin
rashes
things
like
that.
So
I
just
ask
that
you
take
time
to
really
consider
our
students
when
you
decrease
the
amount
of
teachers.
Thank
you.
Q
My
name
is
heather
shifflett.
I
don't
come
before
you
today
with
studies
or
datas
about
any
class
sizes.
I
don't
have
any
facts
about
schools
or
test
scores.
I
come
before
you
today
to
tell
you
about
my
six-year-old
son
he's
a
kindergarten
student
at
shadyside
elementary
and
mrs
mitchell
is
his
teacher.
Q
Q
However,
david
has
a
disability,
he
suffers
and
battles
with
anxiety
and,
if
you
don't
think
for
one
minute,
anxiety
is
a
disability.
You
are
sadly
mistaken
at
any
given
time
or
given
day,
he
has
a
full-blown
debilitating
anxiety,
tech
and
these
texts
come
on.
He
needs
reassurance,
patience,
love
and
understanding.
Q
He's
had
three
surgeries
since
2010
a
broken
arm,
countless
doctors,
appointments
and
endless
medications.
My
husband
and
I
approached
this
kindergarten
year
very
concerned.
Neither
one
of
us
believed
kindergarten
needed
to
be
all
day.
We
thought
kindergarten
was
for
making
friends,
learning,
abcs
and
setting
a
foundation
for
classroom
and
school
behavior
for
years
to
come.
Q
We
quickly
learned
kindergarten
has
changed.
I
was
shocked
to
learn
the
school
in
the
county
expectations
of
a
five-year-old,
shocked,
david's
father.
Scott
has
worked
for
ups,
the
last
ten
years.
He's
a
wonderful
father.
Excuse
me,
excuse
me,
25
years
he's
been
with.
Ups
he's
worked,
he's
a
wonderful
father,
a
great
husband
and
a
wonderful
provider.
However,
I
come
here
today
without
his
support.
Q
Q
His
opinion
has
rocked
my
parental
core
fall
behind
change.
A
school
leave.
My
son's
friends,
david's
grandmother
was
an
educator
for
pg
county
for
37
years.
Blainesburg
high
suitland
high
oxen
hill
high
and
ended
her
career
at
parkdale
high
school.
I
am
the
only
child
to
a
single
parent
who
led
a
life
and
dedicated
herself
to
children.
I
remember
countless
nights.
She
worked
from
home
and
spent
hours
and
hours
writing
recommendations
and
keeping
her
children's
schedule
straight.
I
often
argued
with
her
students
were
more
important
to
me.
Q
Unlike
my
mom,
I've
been
blessed
to
stay
home
with
david.
I've
had
the
pleasure
to
be
the
room
parent
for
both
his
pre-k
and
kindergarten
class,
and
I
must
say
both
teachers
have
been
absolutely
amazing.
My
husband
and
I
have
been
extremely
pleased
with
both
of
them.
I
could
not
have
asked
for
more
and
in
my
heart
I
know,
without
these
teachers,
david
would
not
have
progressed
being
from
pg
county.
Q
I've
always
put
this
county
on
a
pedestal:
better
teachers,
better
classrooms,
more
resources,
and,
to
be
frank,
if
you
think
this
school
or
this
county
didn't
have
teachers
like
mrs
mitchell
and
mrs
tryoc,
this
county
would
be
no
better
than
pg,
not
because
I
would.
I
went
to
eleanor
roosevelt
high
school,
a
science
and
tech
school
one
of
the
three
in
the
county.
Q
Q
I
know
you
hear
my
concerns
all
of
you,
but
I
need
you
to
listen.
I
asked
the
board
to
reconsider
these
proposed
changes,
not
because
I'm
scared
david,
won't
receive
an
education,
but
I'm
scared.
You
will
take
away
the
patience,
the
love
and
the
understanding
these
teachers
provide
without
them.
I
fear
the
students
in
his
class
blake,
ian
jesse,
ashley,
austin,
jordan,
damien
josefina,
wesley
riley,
lowe,
josefina,
connor,
riley,
robinson,
joshua,
justice,
christopher
chase
v,
chase
y
jaden,
alyssa
and
samuel
will
lose
the
village.
It
takes
to
raise
these
children
to
become
good
people.
D
I
just
wanted
to
ask
dr
lotto
how
many
teachers
in
our
budget
did
we
request
when
we
did
our
when
we
asked
our
budget.
F
We
we
requested
miss
richie
33
teachers
for
enrollment
to
meet
enrollment
needs
right
to
purely
based
on
enrollment.
F
F
Well,
in
that
category,
zero
were
funded.
We
have
a
total
of
from
what
the.
As
you
know,
it's
now
before
the
county
council,
but
from
the
county
executive
county
executive
has
allowed
us
55
positions
total,
but
that
is
across
in
very
different
categories,
but
for
that
one
category
of
enrollment
class
size
enrollment
in
those
33
it
was,
he
funded,
zero.
Okay,.
D
If
we
don't
have
teachers,
we
we
have
larger
class
sizes
so
and
and
when
when
schools
are
asked
to
look
at,
how
do
we
make
the
decision
on
teachers
moving,
I
mean
we're
not
making
that
decision
up
here.
Is
that
that's
based
on
enrollment
numbers
and.
F
Absolutely
and
if
I
could-
and
I
was
going
to
to
jump
in
miss
richie,
I'm
so
that
that
you
all
understand
and
for
the
for
the
larger
group,
thank
you
for
your
advocacy
for
shadyside.
It's
a
it's
a
wonderful
place.
It
really
it's
got
a
great
feel
to
it
and
super
staff
understand
that
the
board
of
ed
doesn't
make
the
decisions
on
staffing
that
comes
from
the
superintendent
and
the
superintendent's
staff.
So
those
are
decisions
that
we
have
made
for
shadyside
and
all
of
our
schools.
We
are
in
the
process
of
staffing,
our
schools.
F
It
begins
with
enrollment
counts
and
those
are
projections.
We
won't
have
live
numbers
until
july
1..
So
this
is
a
process
that
we
go
through
every
year,
so
the
office
of
school
performance,
of
which
I
used
to
be
a
part
of
in
my
in
one
of
my
earlier
roles
before
superintendent,
is
that
group
meets
several
times
a
month.
They
will
meet
not
this
friday,
but
next
friday
is
on
their
calendar
to
meet
to
go
over
enrollment
and
they
literally
put
up
the
enrollment
figures
of
every
one
of
our
schools.
F
It
goes
up
on
a
white
board
in
the
office
of
school
performance
office
and
they
literally
look
at
the
counts
of
kindergarten
and,
first
second,
third,
through
or
fifth
for
all,
79
of
the
elementary
schools
and
they'll
do
that
right
now,
as
projections
on
july
1,
we
do
the
rollover
of
students,
your
students
from
second
grade
to
third
grade
fifth
grade
to
sixth
grade.
When
those
enrollment
numbers
get
rolled
over
in
the
computer,
then
we
have
live
numbers
and
then
we
start
to
make
adjustments
and
we
can
add
staffing
or
take
staffing
away.
F
This
is
the
process
that
we
go
through
right
now.
We've
got
projections,
some
of
the
numbers
that
you
have
shared,
I'm
not
sure
where
you've
got
all
of
your
numbers.
I
know
the
numbers
that
I
pulled
this
morning,
based
on
the
enrollments
for
each
of
the
class
sizes
and
fifth
grade
is,
is
looking
large
right
now
at
31.5
per
the
two
classes,
so
you'll
have
two
classes,
so
that's
over
60
students
in
the
fifth
grade,
so
they
could.
They
could
easily
be
with
just
two
teachers
over
30
students
per
those
class.
F
I
didn't
see
a
number
of
35
or
36,
but
those
are
projections,
so
I
want
you
to
know
the
larger
community
to
know
that
this
is
a
process.
We
have
to
start
with
the
projections
and
then
we
get
to
the
rollover
of
the
students
that
are
with
us
and
enrolled
at
the
time,
and
then
we
start
to
add
teachers
where
we
can.
I
also
want
to
finish
with
the
point
that
we
added
1101,
more
students
to
this
year's
group
of
students,
our
enrollment.
Overall,
we
are
working
with
zero
new
teachers
from
last
year's
budget.
F
The
the
previous
superintendent
and
this
board
asked
for
additional
teachers
to
meet
that
need
enrollment
and
we
got
zero
from
the
county
council.
So
our
we
have
a
wonderful
school
system.
People
want
to
be
in
our
school
system.
They
know,
we've
got
fabulous
schools,
our
kids
and
our
parents
are
dedicated,
it's
fabulous,
but
we
have
to
have
teachers
to
teach
them.
Enrollment
class
sizes
across
the
school
system
will
go
up
if
we
don't
get
more
teachers.
C
I
also
just
wanted
to
add
that
your
timing
is
good
because
the
county
council
still
has
another
week
before
they
look
at
the
overall
county
budget
and
reallocate
or
kind
of
rubber
stamp
what
our
county
executive
has
asked
for,
and
I
think
it's
important
that
they
hear
from
you
they're
the
ones
with
the
checkbook
and
if
we
keep
adding
a
thousand
students
a
year
and
getting
no
more
teachers.
Imagine
what
this
is
going
to
be
like
two
three
four
years
out,
so
we
have
to
get
the
message
to
the
people
that
are
funding
our
system.
D
And
sometimes
people
think
we're
blowing
them
off
by
that
we're
really
not
we
asked
for
these.
We
knew
that
the
projections
were
going
up.
We
asked
for
the
teachers
so
that
we
would
be
able
to
ensure
that
our
classrooms
stay
at
at
the
recommended
level,
they're
just
recommendations.
We
have
to
do
with
what
we
have,
and
so
we
have
definitely
so
we're
not
blowing
you
off.
D
We
really
understand
that
we,
when
we
visit
classrooms-
and
we
I
mean
one
of
the
first
things
that
I
walk
in
and
when
we
do
school
visits,
is
I
start
counting
how
many
kids
are
in
the
classroom,
because
that's
an
extremely
important
you're,
absolutely
right,
more
bodies,
you
fit
in
there,
the
harder
it
is
to
maintain
the
harder
and
you
have
one
person
trying
to
watch
30
children.
That's
that's
a
lot
of
that's
difficult.
So,
even
if
you
can't
go
to
a
county
council
meeting,
their
emails
are
all
on
there.
D
Talk
about
your
story,
talk
about
what
it
means
for
your
child
to
be
in
a
classroom
with
all
of
these
students,
because
and
and
your
point
about
kindergarten
is
absolutely
right.
People
think
they're.
Just
coloring
and
you
know,
playing
with
blocks
they're,
not
they're,
not
ready
to
go
to
first
grade
they're
already
behind.
You
know
we're
doing
way
more
than
what
we
ever
did
and
if,
if
all
you
know
about
kindergarten
is
when
you
went
to
kindergarten
well,
you
know
it
it's
way
different.
D
So
we
have
to
really
ensure
that
the
people
we
don't
have
taxing
authority,
we're
not
funders.
We
have
to
ask
for
the
funds
from
the
county,
and
so
we
have
to
make
sure
that
in
good
times,
as
well
as
difficult
times,
people
are
talking
about
what
it
means
to
have
an
education
in
amount
of
county
public
schools.
D
You
know
so
when
things
are
going
along
fine
for
all
of
those
that
may
be
listening
out
there
now
that
when
things
are
going
well
and
you're,
not
in
trouble
think
about
the
fact
that
you
could
be
and
and
talk
about
it
now,
because
waiting
until
something
happens
is
almost
too
late,
it's
almost
too
late.
So
we
have
to
start
now,
and
so
I
encourage
you
to
tell
your
story
to
your
councilman
and
and
let
people
understand
what
it
means
to
you
and
your
kids.
U
I
think
also
when
we
talk
about
shifting
and
looking
at
the
numbers
as
your
process
comes
through,
dr
alato,
we
just
all
sort
of
ask
you
to
keep
in
mind
that
numbers
don't
apply
as
well
when
you're
in
an
open
classroom,
school
and
we've
been
bumped
off
the
construction
list,
and
so
I
think
that
we
have
special
concerns
and
30
plus
students
in
our
classrooms
look
a
lot
different
than
they
do
in
other
schools.
So
thank
you
again
for
your
time.
K
K
C
C
C
H
C
F
C
H
I
don't
really
have
a
question.
I
just
really
have
a
comment.
The
comment
in
this
particular
case
is
last
time
when
this
came
before.
I
don't
remember
if
it
was
first
reading
or
from
the
second
reading.
I
had
some
concerns
relative
to
dr
alato.
H
You've
mentioned
many
times
about
the
three
focuses
of
access,
equity
and
excellence,
and
I
really
truly
believe
that
this
moves
us
in
somewhat
of
a
direction
as
far
as
the
excellence
is
concerned,
of
being
able
to
provide
that
additional
technology
in
the
classroom,
but
I
I
do
have-
and
I've
expressed
this
before
some
concerns
relative
to
the
equity
and
the
access
piece
of
this
particular
policy,
and
so
you
know
one
of
the
questions
I
asked
last
time
was:
can
you
give
me
some
kind
of
timeline
for
the
next
step
associated
with
this
particular
policy
and
regulation?
H
And,
of
course
you
you
said
you
couldn't
at
this
particular
point
and
the
gentleman
that
was
here.
I
think
on
your
staff,
mr
barlow
kind
of
expressed
some
of
the
concerns
which
I'm
very
well
aware
of
as
it
relates
to
security
and
other
things
when
taking
and
allowing
devices
that
are
not
necessarily
acps
devices
onto
our
particular
network.
H
And
so
you
know,
I've
always
believed
where
there
is
no
vision.
The
people
perish.
The
bible
tells
us
that,
and
so
I'm
really
looking
for
the
vision.
That's
going
to
take
us
to
the
other
25
000
or
some
portion
of
the
25
000
of
our
children
that
live
in
poverty
that
are
farm
students
that
don't
have
the
dollars.
They
may
have
the
dollars
to
have
a
device,
but
that
device
may
not
have
the
associated
data
plan
and
they
may
not
be
able
to
pay
for
that
data
plan.
H
But
we
have
to
get
a
vision
associated
and
we
have
to
get
a
timeline
nailed
down
for
how
we're
going
to
ensure
that
those
children
also
have
equity
and
that
they
also
have
access
to
our
network
associated
with
being
able
to
get
their
education
like
the
other
children
that
will
have
data
plans
that
will
be
able
to
bring
their
devices
and
use
them,
and
so
it's
a
huge
concern
of
mine.
Like
I
said
I've
expressed
it
before.
H
C
G
G
It's
it's
more
of
a
bringing
our
policy
and
our
regulations
in
line
with
what's
actually
happening
in
a
lot
of
our
schools
is
that
is
that
correct?
Okay?
So
it's
this
wasn't
meant
to
address
the
bring
your
own
sort
of
action
that
that
mr
jackson
is
referring
to.
This.
Is
that
that's
so
far
beyond
what
this
this
policy
is
going
after?
G
This
is
just
sort
of
to
to
bring
us
to
the
21st
century
and
to
the
realities
of
where
we
are
where
so
many
of
our
kids
are
bringing
phones
to
school
and
their
teachers
are
letting
them
listen
to
music
in
class
when
they're
reading
or
when
they've
finished
their
work,
so
that
we're
not
our
teachers
aren't
knowingly
violating
our
own
policies.
Is
that
what
this
policy
is
going
after?
That's
correct?
Okay!
So
so
it's
not
meant
to
address
the
using
your
phone
for
academic
purposes.
W
Well,
it
does
allow
the
use
of
that,
and
I
think
one
of
the
things
that's
important-
that
we
had
a
lot
of
discussion
on
in
the
policy
committee
and
through
throughout
the
readings
and
then
even
prior
to
this.
Coming
to
the
policy
committee
which,
when
we
brought
this
to
first
reading,
we
talked
about
there
was
a
cross
section
of
administrators
and
different
people
throughout
this
building.
W
That
talked
about
some
of
the
really
hard
issues
that
mr
jackson
just
approached
and
came
back
to
the
reality
that
you
just
described
that
students
do
have
these
devices
and
that
principals
and
teachers
we
have
a
lot
of
confidence
in
them
in
knowing
their
student
population,
knowing
what
instruction
they
are
trying
to
provide
and
ensuring
that
the
communication
devices
are
being
used
appropriately
within
all
of
the
considerations
and
all
the
factors
that
they
have
to
weigh
given
their
student
population
instruction,
etc.
But.
G
H
What
we
say
c1
is
that
personnel
electronic
devices
are
communication
devices
owned
by
a
student,
his
or
her
parent,
guardian,
siblings
or
friends,
with
voice
data
text
and
or
navigation
capabilities
that
are
able
to
access
the
internet.
So
we're
not
talking
about
just
a
calculator
on
a
phone.
We're
really
talking
about
some
students
having
the
ability
to
use
their
phones
and
other
tablets
and
so
forth
to
be
able
to
access
the
internet
because
they
have
a
data
plan.
Correct.
W
I
think
there
are
two
different
examples
you
could
have
and
I
am
not
a
technology
with
so
when
I'm
wrong
mr
barlow's
going
to
crack
me,
but
you
could
have
like
my
iphone,
because
I
know
that
has
a
calculator,
and
so
my
math
teacher
may
allow
me
to
use
the
calculator
portion
of
that
phone,
but
not
access
the
internet
portion
of
that
phone
regulating.
That
is
a
different
story
and
that's
why
our
teachers
and
our
administrators
are
so
valuable
because
they
are
very
creative
on
how
they
can
figure
out
how
that's
being
done.
W
H
X
For
the
record,
greg,
barlow
chief
information
officer,
what
ms
kutches
described
was
quite
correct:
there
are
on
many
of
these
devices.
You
can
use
them
with
or
without
access
to
the
internet.
For
example,
a
calculator
would
work
just
fine,
even
if
that
was
the
device,
was
in
airplane
mode
or
had
no
access
to
the
internet,
as
would
many
of
the
other
apps
that
would
be
on
the
on
the
device.
X
Certainly,
others
would
require
internet
access,
so
there's
there's
multiple
uses
of
these
devices
depending
on
what
the
the
task
is
is
required,
but
in
my
mind
this
is
this
is
absolutely
about
bringing
the
the
policy
and
the
regulation
in
line
with
what's
being
practiced
in
the
schools
right
now,
the
actual
byod
bring
your
own
device
which
would
imply
connecting
it
to
our
to
our
network.
That's
something!
If
you
talk
about
the
vision,
we
see
that
as
something
down
the
road.
Potentially,
that
has
not
been
a
decision
point
at
this
point
in
time.
X
So
if
the
decision
is
made
to
do
that,
we
will
be
positioned
to
do
that
right
now
we
have
roughly
a
little
over
fifty
thousand
internet
capable
capable
devices
on
our
network
right
now
between
pcs,
ipads
and
chromebooks.
X
When
you
talk
about
byod
you're,
potentially
talking
about
two
devices
for
every
student
they're
going
to
bring
their
their
own
smartphone
and
then
perhaps
a
laptop
or
a
tablet,
so
that's
potentially
160
000
devices
there
and
then
you
add
the
staff
devices.
On
top
of
that,
that's
a
huge
step
from
the
fifty
thousand
that
we
have
now
to
well
over,
possibly
two
hundred
thousand.
X
So
that's
going
to
require
a
lot
more
network,
build
out
and
then
more
security
implementation
on
top
of
that
network,
access
control
and
those
types
of
things
so
that
we
not
only
protect
the
students
but
protect
our
network
and
our
our
systems
from
anything
that
could
go
on.
So
so
that's
a
progression
again
we're
working
in
that
in
that
direction.
X
Well,
I'm
glad
to
say
at
this
point
in
time.
If
I
sat
here
a
year
ago,
I
would
say
we
had
zero
chromebooks.
Now
we
have
bordering
on
11
000
chromebooks
in
the
system
and
that's
going
to
somewhat
become
a
go-to
device.
I'm
not
going
to
say
that
that
happens
in
all
these
scenarios,
such
as
you
describe,
but
now
we
have
11
000
more
devices
out
there
that
are
internet
capable
that
are
very
portable
and
and
they're
in
all
schools
right
now.
X
So
so
that's
a
a
pretty
good
option
for
that
now,
a
chromebook
won't
do
everything
that
you
want
it
to
do.
You
know
it
has
limitations,
as
does
any
device.
The
the
student's
smartphone
might
have
limitations
on
what
it
could
do
as
well.
So
so
it
takes
many
different
devices
to
to
solve
all
the
problems
that
we're
trying
to
solve,
but
I
think
a
chromebook
could
potentially
solve
that
that
potential
scenario.
Okay,.
H
So
I
would
hope,
as
I
expressed
during
first
and
second
reading,
that
we
would
get
to
a
position
where
we
can
make
a
determination
on
bring
your
own
device.
Yes
or
no,
because
you're
gonna
have
children
out
there
that
do
have
their
own
devices
and
they
don't
have
data
plans
and
that
creates
an
equity,
and
that
creates
an
access
issue.
It
could
create
an
access
issue
for
those
children
and
we're
not
addressing
them.
H
H
So
I
just
asked
my
fellow
board
members
to
keep
that
in
mind
I'll
change,
my
vote
and
I'll
vote
for
it,
but
at
the
end
of
the
day,
I
still
think
we've
got
kids
that
are
going
to
fall
through
the
cracks,
because
they're
not
going
to
have
the
dollars
and
cents
in
order
to
pay
for
data
plans
for
things
that
and
therefore
they
won't
have
the
internet
in
the
school
building.
Thank
you.
L
As
a
policy
committee
member
this
year,
I've
had
a
lot
of
policies
that
have
come
before
me
and
some
more
interesting
than
others,
and
this
was
one
of
those
that
was
very
interesting
to
me
and
I
agree
with
miss
burge
and
mr
jackson,
so
I'm
at
a
draw
here.
I
will
be
voting
for
this
only
because
I've
seen
how
we
use
phones
at
school.
L
I
used
it
just
the
other
day
as
a
calculator
in
aerospace,
but
then
mr
jackson
also
raised
a
very
legitimate
point
because,
just
a
few
days
ago,
our
teacher,
our
calculus
teacher
and
this
room
has
windows
by
the
way,
because
we
don't
get
signal
in
all
of
our
classes.
So
sometimes
we
can't
use
the
internet,
but
this
room
had
windows
and
he
told
us
if
we
could
find
archimedes
theorem.
He
would
give
us
extra
credit
and
of
course
nobody
knew
it
off
the
top
of
their
head.
L
So
he
told
us
we
could
use
the
internet
whatever
we
had
at
our
disposal
and
so
of
course,
a
lot
of
us.
We
pulled
out
our
phones
and
we
looked
it
up
and
there
were
some
students
that
didn't
pull
out
their
phones
and
I
don't
know
whether
it
was
because
they
didn't
want
to
use
their
data
plan
or
if
they
just
didn't
care
about
the
extra
credit
or
whatever
it
was.
But
it's
important
that
we
do
acknowledge
that
students
do
use
the
internet
while
they
are
at
school
and
currently
in
some
of
the
classrooms.
L
We
don't
get
internet
connection
which
in
itself
is
a
problem,
but
there
are
the
ones
that
we
do
get
internet
connection
in.
We
are
using
our
data
plan
and
I
know
that's
something
that
we
don't
want
to
use
and
in
the
future.
I
do
hope,
even
though
I
won't
be
a
board
member,
that
we
do
have
a
policy
or
we
do
come
up
with
a
way
to
provide
wi-fi
or
some
kind
of
internet
connection
to
everybody,
so
they
can
have
access
to
that
at
school
because
it
is
something
is
a.
L
D
I
think
of
this
more
of
as
an
enhancement
and
it's
an
extra
piece
if,
if
a
student,
whatever
those
calculators
that
you're
supposed
to
buy
in
high
school,
that
we
bought
the
t,
something
or
others
yeah
those
you
know,
we
went
out
and
bought
them.
But
if
you
couldn't
afford
them
or
you
couldn't
buy
them,
they
were
available
to
students.
D
This
is
not
to
supplement,
I
mean
not
to
augment,
but
to
supplement
we're
not
telling
kids
that
they
have
to
have
a
device
in
order
to
be
able
to
participate,
we're
saying,
if
you
have
a
device,
then
we
are
able
to
utilize
it.
We
do
have
to
have
a
policy
or
regulations
or
or
guidelines
of
some
sort
that
talk
that
ensure
that
teachers
in
classrooms
are
not
saying
all
you
have
available
is.
Is
this
so
I
mean
we
can
most
certainly
do
that.
D
But
this
piece
is
the
first
step
of
this
is
to
make
sure
that
people
are
able
to
start
utilizing
it
because,
quite
frankly,
they're
out
there
breaking
the
policies
every
day
by
using
the
devices,
whether
they're,
using
them
as
a
clicker,
to
to
to
do
the
automatic
polls
on
things
or
whether
they're
using
them
to
look
up
the
information
or
whether
they're
using
them
to
listen
to
pandora.
So
you
know
the
next
step
of
this,
then,
is
to
ensure
that
we
have
a
policy
in
place,
regulations,
guidelines
that
say
this
is
what
happens.
D
You
know
you're
allowed
to
ask
your
students
to
use
that,
but
you
must
ensure
that
you
have
coverage
for
whatever.
So
I
mean
I
fully
agree
with
what
mr
jackson
and
the
rest
have
said
in
terms
of
making
sure
that
students
have
access
and
two
things
and
then
also
the
thing
because
yeah,
if
I
only
have
certain
amount
of
data
plan,
minutes
left
and
I
I
don't
have
any
clue
how
that
works.
D
F
So
so
this
is,
nothing
is
ever
easy
with
technology,
so
there
are
many
questions
to
be
answered
as
we
talked
about
when
this
came
up
for
second
reading,
and
I
know
that
the
policy
committee
has
had
this
conversation.
This
is
the
first
step,
and
so
we
have
students
using
devices
their
own
devices
in
their
buildings
and
again
and
mrs
richard
you're
absolutely
correct.
This
is
not
to
augment.
F
This
is
not
to
we're
not
going
to
start
we're,
not
turning
the
wi-fi
off
in
the
building,
because
now
students
are
bringing
their
devices
we're
not
going
to
stop
purchasing,
chromebooks
or
other
pieces
of
technology,
because
we're
not
asking
students.
This
is
this
is
to
it's
not
to
augment.
It
is
to
supplement
what
it
is
that
we're
doing
and
take
advantage
of
of
the
students.
This
is
also
keep
in
mind.
There's
no
here,
there's
no
language
here
that
requires
students
to
bring
a
device
and
use
their
device
and
use
their
data
minutes.
F
F
So
one
of
the
first
steps
is
that
we're
going
to
be
getting
on
to
the
the
the
the
the
the
county
fiber
network
and
that's
gonna
one.
That's
gonna
enhance
what
we're
doing
that's
part
of
what's
happening
with
this
year's
budget
and
and
what's
moving
forward
with
what
mr
shu
has
provided
us
in
the
technology
arena.
So
that's
a
next
step
where
we're
going
to
be
on
the
fiber
network
ring
for
the
entire
county
and
eventually
we're
going
to
get
to
a
place.
F
That's
part
of
the
vision
that
mr
barlow
has
shared
with
me
that
we
want
to
have
parallel
wi-fi
wi-fi
tracks
for
the
secure,
that's:
what's
that's
the
school
system,
business
and
then
guests
and
or
students
in
buildings,
or
a
building
like
this,
where
the
two
can't
can't
meet
and
we
and
we
won't
have
those
security
issues,
but
that's
not
going
to
be
spelled
out
in
policy
regulation
at
this
time.
That's
part
of
the
technology
vision.
H
Yeah,
I'm
I'm
very
glad
that
we're
talking
about
this
and
we're
getting
this
out
there
relative
to
the
vision,
because
it's
no
different
than
this
room
right
here
in
this
room
right
here.
We
have
secure
internet
that
the
staff
is
on
right
and
we're
in
this
room
right
here
we
have
public
wi-fi
that
nobody
is
required
to
bring
their
own
cell
phone
in
here.
H
But
we
all
know
everyone
in
here
wants
wants
to
be
able
to
do
their
business
on
their
cell
phone
and,
if
they're
not
using
their
data
plan
they're
using
the
school
systems,
data
school
systems
plan
or
their
riding
on
the
school
systems
network,
then
it
saves
them
money
and
nobody
is
required
to
bring
their
own
cell
phone.
But
we
all
know
we
want
to
to
be
able
to
do
what
we
need
to
do
to
stay
up
up
with
the
times.
H
And
so
all
I'm
saying
is,
is
that
you
know
for
the
future
boards
that
are
here
being
able
to
articulate
what
that
plan
is
and
what
kind
of
vision
and
timeline
we're
talking
about.
Helps
us
all
to
know
in
the
schools
for
the
for
children,
for
parents
in
schools,
what
that
looks
like
for
their
children
coming
down
the
road
in
five
or
ten
years.
So
that's
the
concern
that
I
have
and
that's
the
exact
same
concern
that
I
expressed
its
second
reading.
H
So
it's
great
to
have
the
vision,
I'm
glad
that
that's
out
there
that
we
do
have
a
vision
potentially
down
the
road
for
that
now
it
becomes
being
able
to
articulate
you
know
when
is
the
county
going
to
be
able
to
do
what
they
do?
You
know
tentatively,
when
is
the
school
system
going
to
be
able
to
do
what
they
do
tentatively,
because
all
of
that's
important,
because
what
it
is
a
matter
of
is
equity
and
access
for
students
that
want
it,
but
they
don't
have
the
money
to
be
able
to
do
it
right
now.
Y
For
the
record,
my
name
is
lisa
shore,
and
this
is
one
of
those
policies
that
really
spoke
to
me
for
some
reason,
and
I
wanted
to
support
what
mr
jackson
said.
I'm
concerned
about
the
equity
piece
also,
and
I
also
feel
that
it
is
the
school
system's
responsibility
to
provide
the
access.
We
can
ask
kids
to
bring
their
devices
just
like
my
kids
had
to
buy
their
ti.
Y
84S
ti
84
pluses,
whatever
they
had
to
do
in
high
school,
but
I
think
it's
the
school
system's
responsibility
to
provide
the
internet
access
and
I
think,
until
we're
able
to
do
that,
we
really
shouldn't
be
using
it
for
educational
purposes
when
we're
potentially
leaving
kids
out.
So
I
do
want
us
to
take
our
time.
Y
Looking
at
this
policy,
I
think
we're
moving
in
the
right
direction,
but
I
think
we
need
to
be
very
slow
and
very
strategic
in
this
policy
to
make
sure
that
we
are
being
equitable
to
all
kids
and
that
the
school
system
is
providing
the
internet
access.
Just
like
a
college
or
university.
Does
I
have
college
age
kids
now
and
they
tell
me
they
can
go
and
log
on
to
their
college
network?
Y
I
think
that's
what
we
need
to
be
moving
towards
as
a
school
system.
Thank
you.
F
If
I
could
add,
I
don't
want
anybody
lisa.
Thank
you
for
your
comments.
We
do
provide
internet
access
for
our
for
our
students,
80
000
students.
We
we
provide
internet
access
and
for
our
staffs.
So
so
I
don't
want
anybody
to
want
to
to
walk
away
from
this
conversation.
Thinking
that
it's
not
provided
it
absolutely
is
provided
eleven
thousand
chromebooks.
There
are
total
how
many
machines
that
we
have
in
the
system
over
fifty
thousand
over
fifty
thousand.
So
that's
those
are.
F
Those
are
public
dollars
that
have
been
well
spent
for
our
students
and
our
staffs
to
access
the
internet
and
that's
important,
and
so
we
don't
want
this.
This
is
not
a
policy
to
stop
that
growth
lisa.
It
is
a
policy
that
can
enhance
it.
If
the
students
choose
to
do
that,
and
if
the
students
and
their
parents
say
no,
don't
pull
your
cell
phone
out,
don't
pull
your
cell
phone
out,
but
you
can
still
access
the
internet
from
one
of
the
50
000
machines.
We've
currently
got
in
the
school
system.
H
Yeah,
thank
you.
I
I
don't
think
that's
at
all
of
what
lisa
is
saying
or
what
I'm
saying
we
know
we
have
access
in
our
school
system.
Regarding
heart,
you
know
hard
wired,
computers,
laptops
with
internet
access,
all
of
that
stuff
that
that's
not
what
we're
not
claiming
that
we
don't.
What
we're
saying
is
we
have
to
be
careful
that
we
don't
create
the
haves
and
the
have-nots
when
it
comes
to
a
situation
like
what
ms
chaudhry
is
saying.
H
H
If
you're
a
student
in
poverty,
you
may
not
have
that
ability
to
go
do
and
you
may
not
be
able
to
run
over
and
get
a
chromebook
because
there
are
only
11
000
of
them
in
the
school
system.
So
the
5
or
10
that
you
need
in
that
classroom
may
not
be
in
that
classroom
to
do
that,
and
that's
where
you
create
the
equity
piece.
H
C
G
X
It
it's
the
in
many
cases
the
students
are
using
them
between
classes
to
listen
to
music.
To
you
know,
I
think
predominantly
my
thought
is
that
it's
not
academically
based.
G
And
we're
not
doing
that,
so
it's
cool
it's
to
bring
the
existing
policy
and
regulation
into
line
with
what
our
current
practices
in
the
schools
and
at
a
future
time
we
will
be
addressing
the
the
academic
bring
your
own
device.
That's.
T
W
The
way
the
policy
or
actually
the
regulation
reads,
is
that
the
teacher
makes
the
decision
within
their
classroom.
Currently,
as
we
had
discussed.
W
Students
are,
you
know
not
getting
involved
in
activities
that
they
shouldn't
be
involved
in
at
different
times
of
the
day
that
they
found
when
they
allow
students
to
use
their
personal
electronic
devices,
and
I'm
not
sure,
if
they're,
using
their
data
plans
or
if
the
music
is
already
downloaded
at
that
point,
but
they
are
allowed
to.
You
know,
use
them
at
those
different
times.
So
the
feedback
that
we've
received
from
the
schools
has
been
very
positive.
H
Yeah,
I
I
just
want
to
reiterate
what
miss
burj
kind
of
talked
to.
If
this
is
really
not
for
academic
purposes,
and
that's
not
the
reason
that
we've
got
this
moving
in
this
direction,
then
why
do
we
have
situations
like
ms
chaudhary's
teacher,
that
is
giving
extra
credit
associated
with
looking
up
some
data
with
any
way
that
you
want
to?
Because
that's
an
I'm
sorry,
maybe
I
misunderstand,
but
that's
an
academic
purpose,
or
maybe
am
I
that's
an
academic
purpose?
Am
I
right
or
am
I
wrong.
X
Requires
the
academic
use
of
it,
it's
certainly
allowed,
as
ms
chaudhary
pointed
out
many
of
our
schools,
there
is
no
access
to
the
internet
once
you
get
inside
the
schools,
especially
the
the
new
construction,
there's,
a
lot
more
steel
in
the
buildings
and
and
once
you
get
inside,
you
lose
that
your
your
internet
access,
so
so
everybody
becomes
hampered
in
that
way.
At
that
point
in
time,
except
for
the
apps
that
are
on
the
phone
that
don't
require
internet
access
which
could
be
music
or
calculator
or
things
of
that
nature.
I
think
it.
X
This
policy
just
allows
that
if,
if
that's
the
case,
if
you
happen
to
be
in
a
school
where,
where
you
have
internet
access
and
that's
again
extra
credit
in
that
particular
case,
it
wasn't
a
requirement
of
of
the
of
the
structure
there,
but
it
does
allow
that
just
in
case.
H
And
my
only
point
is
in
allowing
that
it
also
impacts
kids
that
won't
have
the
ability
to
be
allowed
that,
and
so
the
sooner
we're
able
to
get
to
where
we
want
to
go
and
sooner
we're
able
to
describe
that
to
all
people,
the
better
we'll
be
in
serving
all
80
000
kids
in
our
school
system.
That's
all
my
point
is.
X
And
I
just
want
to
say
again:
our
our
job
in
the
division
of
technology
is
to
move
towards
that
direction.
We
understand
the
equity
part
of
that
we've
discussed
that
at
great
length,
there's
going
to
be
a
lot
of
dollars
required
to
build
out
the
network
to
get
it
to
that
point.
So
unfortunately,
it's
nothing
that
we
can
flip
the
switch
on
tomorrow.
But
that
is
all
part
of
the
vision
and
we
actually
have
a
plan.
X
We
we
expect
to
get
more
chromebooks
and
be
in
the
scenario
if
we
do
do
byod,
where
the
students
are
allowed
on
our
network,
that
there
will
be
a
check
in
checkout
system.
We
already
have
that
for
our
library
books
right
now,
there's
no
reason
why
you
can't
put
a
chromebook
on
that
and
check
out
a
chromebook,
just
as
you
would
a
library
book,
so
the
student
could
have
that
all
day.
X
You
know
so
we've
thought
about
this.
This
is
all
part
of
the
the
plan.
This
policy
and
regulation
does
not
address
that
in
in
the
least
bit,
but
that
will
come
at
some
point
in
time.
I
do
believe,
but
these
are
discussions
that
are
taking
place
all
the
time
and
we
are
absolutely
working
in
that
direction.

Short
comments:
the

services
brings
policy
jl
student
services
to
you
for
first
reading,
this
policy
was
last
updated,
may
16
2007.
the
policy
and
its
income
accompanying
regulation
reflect
the
coordinated
program
of
services
provided
through
students,
the
student
services
office.
On
the
last
page
of
the
regulation,
you
will
notice
the
deletion
of
the
safe
and
drug-free
school
section.
That
was
a
program
that
was
federally
funded
that
is
no
longer
available
to
us.
W
Student
services
will
still
still
does
and
will
still
work
to
provide
a
safe
environment
for
its
students
and
support
for
substance
abuse
issues.
However,
that
program
in
its
prior
form
and
under
that
name
no
longer
exists
and
we
have
removed
it
from
the
regulation.
For
that
reason,
this
policy
will
be
posted
on

I
just
want
to
real
quickly
say.
Thank
you
just
thank
you
very
much
for
combining
this
all
into
one
place.
I
think
it's
going
to
make
make
it
a
lot
easier
for
our
staff
and
for
us

for
anyone
who
needs
to
look
at
it
to
be
able
to
look
at
one
place
instead
of
20
short
little
paragraphs
in

Is
an
information
to
action
item
on
the
chesapeake
science
point:
public
charter
school
charter,
school
renewal
agreement.
Do
I
have
a
motion
to
move
this
from
information
to
action?
C
P
P
P
Soon,
after
that
approval,
all
parties
began
working
on
a
charter
contract
which,
if
approved
today,
will
serve
as
the
legally
binding
agreement
that
will
guide
each
party
with
respect
to
their
roles
and
responsibilities
over
the
next
five
years.
It
should
be
noted
that
this
process
was
highly
collaborative,
involving
senior
and
executive
staff
from
aacps,
as
well
as
representatives
from
csb's
governing
board
this
contract,
which
you
currently
have
before
you
has
been
reviewed
by
the
board's
council,
mr
bennett.
D
It's
actually
not
a
question,
it's
a
it's
a
compliment.
This
was
a
real,
tenacious
episode
when
we
first
came
on
the
board
and
there
there
was
a
lot
of
controversy
and
a
lot
of
angst,
to
say
the
least.
I
guess-
and
so
I'm
really
very
pleased
that
that
we
have
been
able
to
reach
a
collaborative
kind
of
agreement
and
to
be
able
to
move
forward.
You
know
it
was
just.
C
H
H
Thank
you
for
what
you
did
there
and
helping
us
explain
how
we
do
business
here
and
that
collaborative
conversation
and
every
summer
I
have
thoroughly
enjoyed
going
through
many
of
our
construction
construction
projects
and
I
love
driving
by
lothian
elementary
school
as
it
continues
to
go
up
in
the
sky.
So
I
look
forward
to
staying
I'm
going
to
actually
have
the
binder
that
you
have
I'm
keeping
my
binder
and
you're
not
getting
it
back,
and
I'm
going
to
continue
to
revel
in
it
as
I
fall
