The
goal
of
the
academy
is
simple:
to
improve
communication
with
international
families
and,
as
importantly,
to
diversify
the
pool
of
leaders
in
our
schools
and
our
communities,
so
that
we
can
better
support
the
academic
achievement
of
all
students.
Not
surprisingly,
our
community
engagement
surveys
have
shown
this
to
be
a
need
for
our
school
system,
and
initiatives
such
as
this
have
gone
a
long
way
toward
building
the
bridges
that
are
so
crucial
for
our
students.
E
Our
participants
in
this
academy
represent
12
different
nationalities
and
they
speak
11
different
languages
throughout
the
sessions
they
have
learned
about
each
other
and
how
the
education
system
works
in
this
country
and
specifically
in
anne
arundel,
county
public
schools,
as
is
the
case
every
year.
I
truly
believe
we
have
learned
as
much
from
them
as
they
have
from
us.
Together,
we
have
worked
hard
to
develop
necessary
leadership.
Skills
made
progress
toward
becoming
culturally
proficient
leaders
and
discussed
at
length.
E
The
many
challenges
facing
immigrant
students
and
families-
the
work
of
course,
will
continue
far
beyond
today,
but
I
am
pleased
to
tell
you
all
of
our
participants
plan
to
pursue
at
least
one
leadership
opportunity
in
the
future,
and
now
I'd
like
to
ask
laura
gardner
to
introduce
our
class
members
who
will
come
forward
as
their
names
are
announced.

I
know
that
you
had
a
chance
earlier
this
morning
to
meet
and
talk
with
the
members
of
the
south
river
high
school
powerhawks
robotics
team,
as
they
demonstrated
their
robot
in
the
lobby
for
you
this
morning.
So
I'm
going
to
ask
you
to
remain
in
your
seats.
While
I
tell
you
a
little
and
the
public
about
this
outstanding
group
of
students,
the
powerhawks
recently
competed
in
the
new
york
tech
valley,
regional,
first
robotics
competition.
H
In
troy,
new
york.
There
they
became
the
first
county
team
to
win
the
chairman's
award
considered
the
most
prestigious
in
the
scholastic
robotics
world
that
award
one
of
about
60,
given
to
the
more
than
five
thousand
robotics
teams
around
the
world.
Each
year
qualifies
the
powerhawks
to
compete
in
the
world
championships
in
saint
louis
later
this
month,
the
award
exemplifies
teams
whose
members
not
only
are
skilled
and
knowledgeable
but
who
reach
out
and
act
as
models
for
other
teams
to
emulate
and
best
embodies.
H
I
The
powerhouse
sapling
was
planted
in
2003.
through
constant
nurturing.
It
has
grown
a
strong
and
intensive
root
system
which
has
supported
the
far
reach
of
our
branches.
Every
year
we
continue
to
grow
and
thrive,
expanding
the
reach
of
our
root
and
branch
system
to
spread
our
reach
and
remain
a
strong
community.
We
root
ourselves
in
our
outreach
and
sponsors
powerhawk
members
tutor
over
2000
hours
at
our
local
middle
school
each
school
year.
Our
mentors
provide
support
for
our
team,
as
well
as
a
team
under
our
wings.
K
Over
our
team's
history,
our
students
have
coordinated
numerous
first
events.
For
the
past
six
years
we
have
organized
an
fol,
qualifier
and
junior
fll
expo
the
south
county
showdown
with
each
year's
impact
has
grown
in
size
and
scope.
We
also
host
a
yearly
ftc
qualifier
at
the
u.s
naval
academy,
where
we
promote
each
first
program
to
teams
in
the
community.
These
events
allow
enthused
firsters
to
enjoy
the
company
of
fellow
teams
and
community
members
as
they
display
the
skills.
L
The
most
concentrated
impact
of
our
team
is
on
our
local
community.
Last
year,
we
founded
an
annual
powerhawk
summer
camp
that
introduced
18
middle
schoolers
to
the
significance
of
stem
and,
first
through
robotics,
the
campus
so
successful
and
exciting
the
students
about
stem
and
their
futures
that
we've
expanded
our
camp
to
more
than
double
the
impact
this
year.
In
addition
to
our
summer
camp,
we
also
benefit
our
community
through
service
events
aimed
towards
teaching
local
children
about
the
first
values
and
life
inside
the
robotics
program.
M
To
stay
involved
in
maryland,
we've
participated
in
events
including
the
milcon
conference,
the
chesapeake
regional
tech
council
thanksgiving
and
the
ymca
thingamajig.
At
the
melcom
conference,
our
students
joined
others
from
the
area
to
train
in
ptc
creole.
The
crtc
thanksgiving,
as
well
as
events
from
our
other
sponsors,
allows
us
to
showcase
how
their
support
has
helped
us
grow.
Finally,
the
ymca
event
and
numerous
other
stem
nights
throughout
our
county
allow
us
to
present
first
to
students
from
throughout
the
maryland
dc
area.
J
Finally,
we
were
given
a
chance
to
spread
our
values
on
a
national
level.
Last
year,
one
of
our
team
members
testified
to
the
u.s
house
of
representatives
about
how
first
has
impacted
her
life
beyond
high
school.
Our
head
mentor
also
contributes
to
the
national
capital
district
and
chesapeake
regional
planning
committees.
This
allows
the
powerhawks
to
have
an
integral
role
in
the
expansion
of
first
in
the
maryland
area.
J
Lastly,
we
got
the
opportunity
to
present
our
robot
at
the
2014
usa,
science
and
engineering
festival
in
washington
dc.
We
were
able
to
directly
engage
children
with
our
robot
from
this
past
year
and
demonstrate
first
over
350
000
attendees
the
powerhawks
strive
to
continuously
grow
through
our
strong
roots
and
trunk.
We
are
able
to
expand
our
canopy
to
benefit
more
people
every
year
in
our
local
state
and
national
communities.
All
while
providing
a
life-changing
experience
for
the
students
and
mentors
who
make
up
the
powerhawk.

support
the
special
educators
by
enhancing
their
ability
to
focus
on
the
planning
and
delivering
of
services
to
students
while
exercising
her
responsibilities.
Patrice's
warm
smile,
pleasant
demeanor
fosters
goodwill
among
administrators
teachers,
parents
and
students
alike
patrice
wears
two
hats
at
chesapeake
bay
middle.
In
addition
to
her
role
as
an
iep
clerk,
she
serves
as
a
teacher
assistant,
serving
as
an
aide
to
various
students,
implementing
accommodations
and
providing
supplementary
aid
in
support
of
their
education.
R
The
duality
of
patrice's
position
requires
that
she
manage
her
time.
Well,
as
it
requires
balance
between
the
demands
of
clerking
and
those
duties
for
assisting
students.
She
demonstrates
flexibility
by
adjusting
her
work
day
without
losing
the
capacity
to
meet
the
demands
of
both
roles.
Simply
put.
Ms
baker
is
the
heartbeat
of
the
special
education
department
at
chesapeake
bay
middle
school.
R
Her
welcoming
smile
and
uplifting
voice
quickly
establish
a
positive
tone
with
all
who
come
in
contact
with
her.
She
takes
a
personal
interest
in
everyone
asking
about
family
members,
remembering
birthdays
and
delivering
some
sincere
compliments
interspersed
with
humor
and
sweet
laughter
when
one
works
in
a
large
building,
primarily
composed
composed
of
cinder
blocks
without

Patrice's
nourishment
acts
like
sunshine
streaming
through
the
walls,
encouraging
connections
between
people
who
might
otherwise
have
little
contact
as
patrice
travels
through
various
classrooms
and
offices.
She
takes
those
beams
of
sunlight
with
her.
R
Everyone
gets
to
bask
in
the
warmth
of
patrice
miss
baker.
You

So
for
these
reasons,
and

Thank
you,
miss
corbilak,
many
of
our
students.
Parents
wish
they
had
daytime
hours
available
to
volunteer
in
their
child's
school.
Some
seize
the
opportunity
later
in
life
by
volunteering
once
they
retire
to
bring
their
lifelong
experience,
wisdom
and
grandparently
ways
to
enrich
our
students
and
assist
teachers
and
staff.
This
month.
U
U
Mrs
garvin
is
an
invaluable
media
center
volunteer.
She
loves
to
run
the
chessy
reading
club
every
wednesday
morning.
Then
she
stays
to
organize
and
shelve
books
and
diligently
clerk
for
the
teachers
by
completing
endless
copying,
laminating
and
cutting
out
tasks.
Mrs
garvin
ensures
no
task
goes
unfinished.
Even
if
it
means
she
returns
for
an
unscheduled
volunteer
day
to
complete
it,
mrs
garvin's
sidekick,
mr
garvin
shares
her
enthusiasm
and
conscientiousness
to
help
when
and
where
he
can.
U
Every
week
he
donates
many
hours
helping
students
with
reading
and
math,
thanks
to
mr
garvin,
their
graders
are
increasing
their
reading
fluency
by
practicing
sight
words
and
reading
sentences
and
passages
with
him.
Likewise,
he
meets
with
small
groups
to
reinforce
math
skills
and
concepts,
ensuring
their
progress
toward
mastering
the
common
core
standards.
U
The
students
clamor
to
work
with
mr
garvin
and
obviously
the
feeling
is
mutual
principal
mary,
beth
gormley
declared
the
guardians
are
treasured
in
our
school.
Their
enthusiasm
is
infectious
and
we
are
always
thrilled
to
see
them
in
our
building.
Our
staff
and
students
are
enriched
by
their
warm
relationships
with
two
knowledgeable
and
caring
grandparents.
U
W
U
R
I
have
a
couple
things:
one
myself
and
most
of
the
colleagues
were
able
to
go
to
nashville
this
past
couple
months,
a
couple
weeks
ago
to
our
annual
national
school
board
association
conference,
where
I
believe
the
the
count
was
almost
8.
000
school
board
members
from
across
the
country
were
there.
So
this
is
a
really
big
conference
and
they
have
a
lot
of
really
great
workshops
and
that
we
all
were
able
to
take
advantage
of
and
participate
in.
R
R
Most
of
the
time
may
not
always
have
a
lot
of
in-depth
knowledge
about
education
and
and
so
forth,
and
so
to
be
able
to
go
to
opportunities
like
this
through
our
maid
conference
and
into
an
sba
conference,
is
really
a
great
opportunity
for
us
to
be
able
to
talk
with
other
school
board
members
and
one
of
the
best
things
that
I
take
away
from
that
is.
We
have
a
really
terrific
school
system,
so
I'm
just
because
I
get
to
talk
to
other
people.
I
talk
to
some
people.
R
You
know
we
just
talked
about
these
kids,
who
won
the
the
chairman's
award
for
the
robotics,
and
things
like
that.
There
are
still
school
systems
in
our
country
that
don't
even
have
stem
programs
and
their
students.
Don't
even
have
the
opportunity
that
we've
just
provided
our
students
here.
I
find
that
a
crying
shame,
and
so
to
be
able
to
go
to
something
like
that
and
to
learn.
These
things
is
is
really
phenomenal.
R
I
know
that
the
accumulation
of
their
visit
of
their
classes
when
they
come
to
this
and
then
they
get
to
go
and
have
a
nice
pot
lunch
potluck
lunch
where
a
lot
of
them
bring
stuff
in,
and
I
don't
know
why
we
can't
seem
to
do
that
on
a
day.
We
don't
have
a
board
meeting,
because
I've
gone
past
there
and
smelled
the
smells
that
come
out
of
there
and
there's
some
delicious
food
happening.
R
Last
night
with
dr
alato,
I
had
the
opportunity-
and
I
see
mr
williams
back
there
to
attend
northeast
and
the
ribbon.
Cutting
the
cumulation
of
a
four
and
a
half
year.
Project
with
students
in
a
building
is
a
challenge
in
itself
and
to
be
able
to
come
in
on
time
and
under
budget
on
time
under
budget.
R
Just
make
sure
those
words
get
out
there,
pretty
good
the
renovations
that
they
did
for
for
northeast
and
for
that
community
are
just
stellar
and
it's
you
know
you
walk
in
the
library
and
you
want
to
throw
away
your
kindle
right
away
and
get
dig
right
into
the
books
that
are
there.
It's
just
absolutely
fabulous.
So
I'm
glad
that
we
had
the
opportunity
to
do
that.
R
I
also
would
like
to
congratulate
the
office
of
school
and
family
partnership
on
their
conference,
their
successful
conference
they
just
held.
We
have
two
conferences
a
year,
one
on
a
weekday
one
on
a
weekend
and
the
weekday
one
that
they
just
had
over
over
200
parents
came
and
that
that's
the
professional
development,
if
you
will
for
the
parents
to
be
able
to
come
and
to
learn
about
what's
going
on
in
our
school
system
and
how
they
can
work
together
to
ensure
that
their
students
are
successful.
R
So
I
applaud
your
office
for
the
hard
work
that
you
do.
I
know
that
it's
not
an
easy
task
and
making
sure
you
get
speakers
and
quality
people
to
come
and
present
is
really
great.
And
lastly,
as
I
go
on
and
on,
but
I've
not
done
this
for
a
couple
months.
So
forgive
me
recently.
There
was
an
article
in
the
newspaper
that
talked
about
the
students
and
the
teachers
that
were
not
at
school.
R
I'd
like
to
remind
you
that
we
had
over
sixty
thousand
students
who
were
in
school
on
monday,
and
we
had
over
four
thousand
teachers
who
did
show
up
to
provide
quality
education
and
sometimes
when
the
story
gets
written
in
the
negative
way.
We
forget
the
positive,
so
I
want
to
personally
thank
those
4
000
teachers
and
those
60
000
students
who
came
to
school
and
did
the
job
and
and
did
well.
So
I
thank
you
very
much.
O
I
got
the
wonderful
opportunity
to
avenge
to
attend
the
aacps
science
fair
award
ceremony
with
patti
and
dr
alato,
and
it
was
amazing
because
we
had
some
amazing
and
talented
students
in
our
county
who
were
recognized
for
their
projects
and
one
of
the
students
that
actually
got
first
place
and
will
be
moving
on.
Is
a
south
river
high
school
student
ava
grounds
she'll
be
moving
on
to
the
intel
international
science
fair,
and
that
was
really
nice.
So
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you
for
letting
me
go
to
that.
D
So
it
was
just
a
very
celebratory
wonderful
event
and
when
you
look
at
our
robotics
and
program
that
was
that
was
spoken
about
today,
and
then
you
pretend
that
everything
mrs
richie
said
about
what
we
are
offering
just
comes
right
to
the
head
of
of
the
importance
of
of
what
anne
arundel
county
public
schools
are
doing
for
their
children
every
day.
Thank
you.
X
Thank
you
at
the
risk
of
being
repetitive.
I
also
want
to
congratulate
teresa
tudor
and
the
team
on
the
parent
involvement
conference.
There
were
226
parents
in
attendance.
It
was
standing
room
only.
It
was
incredibly
well
organized
and
well
attended,
and
I
was
fortunate
enough.
I'm
honored
to
be
asked
to
speak
with
the
group
early
that
morning
and
it
was
very
engaging.
It
was
a.
It
was
a
wonderful
half
day.
X
So
thank
you
for
that
and
thank
you
to
our
parents
who
took
time
out
of
their
busy
schedules
to
join
us
and
really
contribute
to
to
who
we
are
as
a
as
a
school
system
for
your
children
and
the
other.
Is
the
science
fair
again.
Thank
you
to
the
board
members
that
were
able
to
join
us.
That
was
a
wonderful
event.
It
had
to
be
postponed
because
of
a
snow
date
and
rescheduled
and
the
numbers
are
clearly
on
the
rise
we
had
342
projects
submitted.
X
Z

The
final
thing
I
wanted
to
mention
was
back
on
the
nsba
and,
as
ms
ritchie
mentioned,
several
of
us
had
the
opportunity
to
go
to
nashville.
They
have
various
sessions
and
various
speakers
that
come
and
speak
to
us.
Our
last
speaker
that
came
to
speak
to
us
on
monday
was
montel
williams
and
if
many
of
you
know
he's
an
able
academy,
graduate
he's
a
nuke
and
he
owns
a
lot
of
businesses
speaks
chinese
does
a
lot
of
things
in
the
community.
Z
But
I
want
to
brag
because
there's
there
was
only
one
student
member
of
the
board
out
of
all
of
the
attendees
that
attended,
nsba,
the
national
school
boards
association,
and
that
was
our
student
member
of
the
board.
Just
like
there's
only
one
student
member
of
the
board
that
has
full
voting
rights
and
she's
a
superstar,
and
she
didn't
tell
me
to
say
this
she's
a
stem
student
but
at
south
river.
Z
But
I
say
that
because
these
are
the
type
of
opportunities
that
you
get
to
have
when
you
have
such
capable
and
qualified
students
that
are
willing
to
be
challenged
and
and
to
prove
that
they
can
learn.
She
had
the
opportunity,
as
the
only
student
member
of
the
board,
to
meet
montel
williams,
face
to
face
and
have
lunch
with
montel
williams.
He
asked.
Could
she
could
he
be
her
mentor
and
that's
something
that
is
special,
so
she's
special
and
we're
glad
to
have
her.
Z
C
C
C
The
only
other
note
that
I
have
for
school
and
community
highlights
is
that
I
had
the
opportunity
to
speak
to
some
lovely
young
women
at
bates
middle
school
on
march
24th.
They
have
a
program
called
girls
breaking
boundaries
and
they
asked
me
to
come
in
and
share
my
my
story
and
some
tips
on
how
to
be
a
woman.
You
know
leader,
so
it
was
just
a
wonderful
afternoon
and
I'm
grateful
that
they
have
that
program
at
the
school
ayesha.
O
O
O
Z
Mr
jackson,
yeah,
I
forgot
one
other
thing.
You
know
I
highlighted
with
mr
williams
about
northeast
high
school
a
few
minutes
ago,
but
we
have
dr
kathy
kubick.
That
was
the
principle
prior
to
that,
and
I
want
to
acknowledge
a
lot
of
the
time,
effort
and
energy
on
design
the
rocks
out
in
front
other
things
of
that
nature
that
you
played
a
huge
piece
of
that,
and
I
wanted
to
make
sure
that
that
was
mentioned
too.
So,
thank
you.
AA
Good
morning,
I'm
karma
o'neill
with
the
cac
and
very
short
report
this
morning.
Our
next
meeting
is
april
13th.
Our
march
meeting
had
been
canceled
because
of
a
snow
day.
Go
figure
at
that
meeting.
We're
going
to
be
getting
a
presentation
on
the
budget
in
the
process,
as
we
have
lots
of
our
representatives
working
on
outreach,
getting
people
to
comment
on
the
budget
talk
about
what's
important
to
our
parents.
AA
We
also
have
a
couple
of
other
committees
that
will
be
giving
reports.
Our
communication
committee
has
been
working
diligently
and
finding
ways
to
communicate
with
all
80
of
those
or
80
000
of
those
students,
and
our
equity
committee
has
been
working
really
hard
with
the
office
of
equity
to
also
incorporate
all
of
those
80
000
students,
I
should
say
almost
80,
000
right
and
then
we're
just
working
on
outreach.
AA
G
Dr
arletto,
madam
president,
and
members
of
the
board
good
morning
and
happy
spring,
my
name
is
arnolin
tupas
setzer
and
I'm
representing
the
international
parent
and
community
advisory
board
created
in
2002.
Our
group's
primary
purpose
is
to
advise
the
superintendent
and
the
board
of
education
on
issues
that
are
pertinent
to
international
families
in
the
anne
arundel
county
public
schools.
G
We
recently
met
with
dr
alato
and
are
pleased
to
have
this
opportunity
to
provide
a
similar
update
to
the
board.
This
is
our
group's
fourth
report.
Our
group
is
comprised
of
representatives
from
each
of
the
major
international
communities
in
anne
arundel
county,
as
well
as
liaisons
from
the
county's
human
relations
commission
and
the
aacps
equity
office.
G
G
G
G
G
Our
second
area
of
focus
this
year
is
increasing
global
mindedness
and
cultural
proficiency
in
our
schools,
we're
compiling
a
resource
directory
for
each
ethnic
community,
which
includes
relevant
organizations,
parents
and
community
members
interested
in
speaking
about
their
cultures,
in
other
words,
a
speaker's
bureau
of
sorts.
We
foresee
more
schools
requesting
for
resource
guests
when
they
need
guidance
and
support
with
lessons
assemblies,
cultural
fairs
and
other
projects
that
require
knowledge
about
other
countries.
G
We
need
to
have
such
resources
readily
available.
For
example,
earlier
this
year,
one
of
our
members
from
pakistan
and
miss
laura
gardner
spoke
at
the
triple
e
global
studies
event
in
luthic
elementary
school.
Their
presentation
was
entitled
traveling
next
door,
global
anne
arundel.
They
highlighted
relevant
events
about
their
particular
this
particular
school's
diversity
and
then
emphasized
that
students
don't
need
to
travel
far
to
learn
about
a
new
culture
or
language.
G
More
recently,
we've
been
connecting
with
the
community
development
and
global
citizenship
signature
program
at
arundel,
high
school,
to
arrange
speaking
arrangements
featuring
local
guests
from
various
ethnic
backgrounds.
As
you're
probably
aware,
the
voices
of
international
parents
have
often
been
underrepresented
in
traditional
parent
involvement
activities.
G
We
look
forward
to
reporting
to
you
about
our
initiatives
in
the
future.
Dr
alato
coined
this
phrase
in
one
of
our
meetings:
great
schools,
great
kids,
great
community.
I
love
that
line
and
would
like
to
end
by
adding
one
vital
word
that
speaks
volumes
when
we
to
where
we'd
love
to
see
a
cps.
We
are
proud
to
be
part
of
a
county-wide
educational
system
with
great
schools,
great
kids
and
a
great
global
community.
Thank
you
for
your
time
and
have
a
wonderful
day.

Going

get
started
with
public
comment,
anyone
wishing
to
speak
on
an
item
not
on
today's
agenda
may
offer
testimony
during

Portion
of
the

The
schoolhouse
is
a
foundation
of
our
global
society,
as
well
as
the
history
as
a
country,
state,
county
and
many
communities.
Take
pla
many
communities
wove
this
this
tapestry,
that
is
our
educational
system.
None
of
these
stories
is
created
from
one
cloth
but
woven
together
from
the
evidence
left
in
our
historical
record.
Multiple
narratives
and
stories
exist
because
of
the
many
angles
from
which
we
view
our
past
and
carve
out
our
future.
AB
In
a
comment
recently,
mr
moser
said
that
dr
arlatto
was
opposed
to
naming
schools
for
individuals,
I'm
less
concerned
with
the
how
and
I'm
more
concerned
with
the-
why?
Why
is
this
focus
on
naming
or
renaming
facilities?
Now
I
can
make
a
lot
of
assumptions
based
on
data
and
evidence
that
I'm
collecting,
but
I
won't
I'm
going
to
simply
ask
for
the
why
I
do
want
to
say
that
I
am
adamantly
opposed
to
the
change
and
I'm
encouraging
other
citizens
of
anne
arundel
county
to
do
the
same.
Thank
you.

Hello,
I'm
deb
albert
coordinator
for
career
and
technology,
education,
and
I
have
with
me
today
some
students
which
I
will
introduce
them
at
the
end
and
you'll
actually
have
some
time
to
ask
questions,
but
we
wanted
to
come
today
to
give
a
little
update.
Last
year
we
came
and
talked
about
industry
certifications
in
particular,
which
is
one
of
the
indicators,
of
course,
of
the
strategic
strategic
plan,
part
of
indicator
7..
V
V
The
centers
of
applied
technology
currently
offer
25
different
programs.
However,
many
people
may
not
realize
that
we
also
have
13
completer
programs
running
at
our
comprehensive
high
schools
as
well.
Those
are
running
through
the
offices
of
business,
education,
technology,
education
and
family
and
consumer
sciences,
and
include
programs
like
project
lead,
the
way,
engineering
biomedical
science
pro
start
and
those
types
of
programs.
So
we're
also
going
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
programs
that
aren't
exclusive
to
the
centers
of
applied
technology.
V
All
of
our
programs
provide
industry,
certification
and
or
transcripted
and
college
credit,
and
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
everybody's
kind
of
clear
on
the
difference
between
articulated
credit
and
transcripted
credit.
Historically
in
the
past,
most
all
of
our
programs
had
articulated
credit
assigned
to
them,
which
meant
there
were
partnerships
with
local
post-secondary
and
anywhere
really
in
the
nation
but
post-secondary
institutions,
so
that
once
a
student
completed
our
program.
V
If
the
student
attended
that
institution
started
registered,
took
at
least
six
credits,
usually
it
was
and
successfully
completed
those
six
credits.
Then
they
could
apply
to
get
articulated
credit
from
our
program.
After
all,
that
was
done.
However,
what
we're
trying
to
do,
because
that
wasn't
really
very
valuable
to
a
lot
of
students.
It
was
very
specific
and
had
a
lot
of
you
know,
jump
through
hoops.
V
What
we're
trying
to
change
that
to
are
transcripted
credits
and
many
of
the
post-secondary
groups
that
we're
working
with
are
working
on
one
program
at
a
time
where
our
instructors
work
directly
with
their
instructors
make
sure
that
our
course
is
aligned.
Our
program
is
aligned
and
then
our
students
take
the
post-secondary
final
exam,
while
they're
our
students,
they
get
a
transcripted
credit
for
that
college
without
ever
stepping
foot
on
the
college
campus
or
registering
at
the
college
or
anything.
V
So
that
is
becoming
a
really
valuable
piece
that
we're
we're,
building
and
growing
for
our
programs
and
we'll
talk
a
little
bit
more
about
the
numbers
in
just
a
second.
Many
of
our
programs
also
offer
apprenticeship
steps
and,
of
course,
the
industry
certification
is
extremely
valuable,
that
students
get
some
of
the
examples
of
industry
certification
and
they
range
from
our
nursing
assistant.
Our
cosmetology
students
actually
sit
for
the
actual
state
board
licensure.
V
We
have
industry
certifications
in
automotive
in
welding
in
all
of
our
construction
trades.
All
of
our
programs
have
some
industry
certification
related
to
them.
Last
the
graduates
from
2013
we
had
a
total
of
387
graduates
who
left
us
earning
at
least
one
industry
certification.
Most
of
our
programs
have
opportunity
for
students
to
earn
more
than
one.
V
Part
of
that
growth
is
that
we
are
trying
to
expand
programs
as
well,
so
that
we
are
offering
additional
opportunities
to
students
the
transcripted
credit
piece.
This
is
again
kind
of
new.
We've
only
been
doing
this
for
the
past
few
years,
and
each
year
we
try
to
add
one
or
two
programs
to
it,
but
in
2013
we
had
68
students
leave
with
237
college
credits,
and
this
past
year
we
just
about
doubled
those
numbers
with
140
students
earning
467
college
credits.
V
We
have
added
pharmacy
technician
to
our
academy
of
health
professions
at
the
centers
and
it
isn't
a
whole
new
program
within
within
the
center.
Our
students
who
are
currently
attending
academy
of
health
profession
will
actually
earn
this,
in
addition
to
the
other
certifications
that
they
can
currently
earn.
V
We
have
a
new
program
that
is
at
north
county
high
school,
that
maryland
state
department
of
education
just
recently
accepted
his
career
and
technology
education
program,
and
it's
going
to
be
actually
presented
to
you
later
in
the
agenda.
We
got
moved
so
we're
out
of
order,
but
students.
This
is
a
specific
program
that
is
supports
their
signature
program
and
students
will
actually
be
leaving
us
with
18
college
credits
transcripted
they
can
earn
the
certificate
from
the
community
college
and
the
global
logistics
associate
certification,
which
is
the
industry
certification.
V
We
are
also
proposing
to
start
two
new
computer
science
programs,
one
at
meade,
high
school
and
one
at
chesapeake
high
school,
and
that
will
enable
our
students
to
earn
the
industry
certifications
as
well
as
that.
There's
some
ap
coursework
involved
in
that,
but
it
will
add
the
industry
certifications
that
you
see
there
so
we're
working
towards
identifying
completer
programs
for
high
schools
that
support
their
signature
and
at
our
at
our
tech,
centers.
V
AC
AD
I
got
here
I
learned
about
all
the
certifications
and
stuff
that
you
can
get
through
the
program,
and
I
realized
that
that
would
be
a
really
good
opportunity
for
my
future,
whether
it's
to
work
my
way
through
college
as
a
career
whatever
it
would
be.
It's
just
like
a
really
good
opportunity.
You
come
out
with
all
these
certifications.
Other
classes
have
college
credits
you're
like
one
step
ahead
of
everyone
else.
That's
just
graduating
from
their
home
school.
AC
AD
A
really
kinesthetic
learner,
so
I
learned
best
by
like
taking
things
apart
and
putting
them
back
together
so
like
at
the
home
school.
They
teach
you
all
about
like
different
concepts
and
things
and
it's,
but
it's
all
on
paper
really
like
they
teach
you
how
to
write.
They
teach
you
how
to
do
like
math
and
things
like
that.
AC
AD
AC
Got
the
opportunity
to
compete
in
schools,
usa
and
my
first
year
that
I
competed,
I
went
to
regionals
and
placed
first
and
then
I
went
to
states,
but
sadly
I
didn't
place.
But
then
I
came
back
the
next
year
and
with
all
the
training
that
I
went
through,
I
ended
up
getting
first
in
regional
states
and
in
the
national
competition.
AC
AD
Ultimate
career
goal
is
to
go
into
cancer
research
and
one
of
the
biggest
skills
that
you
actually
learn
in
automotive
is
like.
You
learn
how
things
work
and
then
you
learn
how
to
apply
them,
and
if
you
really
think
about
it,
researching
is
the
same
way.
You
have
to
research,
how
it
works,
and
then
you
have
to
think
of
a
way
to
fix
it.
The.
AC
AD
AC
R
It's
my
end
of
the
county,
more
so
than
cat
south,
but
I
have
been
able
to
come
down
south
at
cat
south
and
I'm
just
always
impressed
I
work
in
the
medical
field,
so
you
know
when
you
talk
about
certified
nursing
technicians.
That's
that's
a
really
big
deal
and
you
know
you
get
a
certificate
and
you
have
to
through
the
state
and
everything
and
people
aren't
hiring
anybody.
You
can't
just
be
a
nursing
assistant
anymore.
You
have
to
be
certified
so
to
be
able
to
get
that
through.
R
Schools
is
terrific,
not
only
that
a
lot
of
these
jobs
that
you
can
get
will
also
then
help
you
with
tuition
later
on,
because
a
lot
of
places
have
tuition,
reimbursement
and,
and
especially
the
pharmacy
piece.
You
know,
there's
a
lot
of
places,
we'll
come
and
work
for
them
and
show
that
you're,
a
good
student
and
a
good
worker
and
they'll
pay
for
you
to
go
to
pharmacy
school.
You
know,
so
that's
a
win-win
in
my
book
as
a
parent
who
has
to
pay
for
college,
that's
that's
a
definite
plus
now
marlene.
R
AD
AC
R
They
got
some
money
there
to
help.
You
go
back
to
school,
with
you
yeah
yeah,
that's,
terrific
and
and
for
too
long
we've.
I
think
we've
really
helped
these
programs
to
really
shine
now
than
that
we
hadn't
before
and
and
for
kids
to
be
able
to
come
through
here
and
have
this
great
opportunity,
because
we're
partnered
with
people
who
are
doing
this
right
now
in
the
real
world.
R
So
it's
not
like
we're
using
antiquated
equipment
it
we
have
real
life
going
on
in
in
here
and
so
the
skills
you're
learning,
I
think,
as
you
mentioned
before,
are
just
they're
relevant
and
that's
that's
extremely
important
to
have
the
relevancy.
So
congratulations
to
all
of
you
and
to
your
teammates
as
well.
X
Thank
you.
I
think
you
guys
are
awesome,
so
thank
you
for
sharing
today.
Video
was
great.
Thank
you.
I
do
want
to
talk
about
one
piece
that
I
saw
on
the
video,
but
I
also
want
to
recognize,
though,
the
hard
work
that
goes
into
moving
our
cat
centers,
both
cat
north
and
cat
south
forward,
both
their
principals
dan
schaffhauser,
is
here
from
cat,
north
and
tom
milan
from
cat
south.
These
are
innovators.
They
and
their
staff
work
very,
very
hard,
and,
as
you
say,
these
are
industry
folks.
X
These
are
folks
that
come
in
from
industry
to
work
with
our
students,
so
they
know
what
the
real
world
is.
It
is
not
about
the
research
itself
and
and
what's
good
or
about
it,
is
exactly
about
what's
happening
out
in
the
work
world,
and
so
these
are
innovators,
both
mr
shaffhausen,
mr
milan.
So
so
we
are
we're
glad
to
highlight
the
good
work
that
you
all
do
and
these
wonderful
opportunities.
X
It
goes
back
to
something
we
said
earlier,
about
opportunities
and
access
for
our
students
for
them
to
find
what
works
for
them,
printing
or
automotive,
right
and,
and
you
put
those
together
and
and
we
we
create
opportunities
and
access
for
our
students.
Wellena.
You
made
something
you
made
mention
something
that
miss
richie
talked
about
and
connecting
automotive
to
cancer
research
and
there's.
X
Not
a
lot
of
people
would
make
that
connection,
and
so
I
want
to
highlight
that
for
a
second,
because
that's
really
very
cool,
and
with
so
many
times
we
think
about
the
career
and
technology
feel
to
the
work
world
or
just
going
to
college
and
really
is
a
combination
of
both.
It
makes
you
better
at
both.
I
think,
and
so
you
talk
about
the
research
and
the
diagnosis.
Can
you
tell
us
just
just
highlight
that
for
a
second
that
research
and
diagnosis
part
how
you
put
those
together
well,.
AD
If
you
really
think
about
it,
when
you're
researching
a
disease
or
anything
in
general,
like
I
said
in
the
video,
you
have
to
know
how
it
works
in
order
to
find
out
why
it's
not
working.
So
it's
just
like
a
car,
you
have
to
figure
out
how
everything
works
in
order
to
realize
why
it's
not
working
so
instead
of
just
trying
to
fix
it,
you
have
to
like
relate
it
to
the
calls
too.
D
Over
my
past
eight
years
on
the
board,
I
have
visited
cat
south
in
cat
north
many
times.
I've
attended
and
I
really,
as
an
elementary
person,
didn't
know
anything
about
it
eight
years
ago
and
when
I,
when
I
attended
the
first
graduation
and
the
first
I
was
amazed.
I
was
amazed
at
the
number
of
students
who
were
receiving
academic
scholarships,
full
rides,
johnson
and
well
all
kind,
and
I
would
I
would
just
kind
of
blew
me
away.
D
So
I
wanted
to
learn
more
and,
as
I
visited
these
centers
again
and
again,
I
saw
students
like
you
who
were
looking
at
this
as
an
expansion
and
and
then
I
I
kept
hearing
about
skills,
usa
and
I
I
didn't
know
anything
about
it.
Well,
I'm
impressed
not
first,
and
that
is
a
big
deal.
I
don't
think
anyone
doesn't
know
about
skillsusa.
I
learned
about
it
and
first
in
your
local,
regional
and
then
you
eventually
went
on
to
the
national
for
first,
and
that
is
how
many
people
competed.
D
There's
six
thousand
and
and
I
kind
of
followed
it
and
watched
it
was
amazing
and
then
I
went
and
visited
and
saw
folks.
I
think
I
was
at
cat
north
getting
ready
and
preparing
for
it.
I
did
a
cat
south
too,
and
I
was
just
amazed.
So
congratulations
to
you.
That's
impressive!
Congratulations
to
you
and
I
I
will
look
forward
to
to
hearing
more
and
more
about
those
wonderful,
wonderful
opportunities.
There
miss
audrey.
O
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you
guys
for
coming
and
I
actually
know
marlena
on
a
personal
level.
We
go
to
school
together
and
we've
had
classes
and
we're
friends,
and
we
were
part
of
key
club
together
and
I
got
the
opportunity
to
meet
chandler
during
the
break,
because
whenever
I
see
kids
and
or
not
kids,
but
people
my
own
age
and
in
the
boardroom,
I
always
go
to
them
or
I'm
always.
O
AC
C
AC
R
Yeah,
I
was
going
to
say
about
the
clearance,
because
some
people
don't
really
think
about
it
when
they,
you
know,
put
stuff
up
on
facebook,
whether
it's
true
or
not.
True,
that
can
stop
you
from
doing
that.
So
I
hope
that
you're
sharing
with
your
your
counterparts,
the
importance
of
maintaining
their
integrity
and
what
what
losing
that,
by
putting
something
stupid
on
facebook
or
any
instagram
or
any
of
these
other
multiple
things
that
are
out
there.
R
R
C
Z
Thank
you
ma'am.
I
just
want
to
thank
miss
korvalak
and
we've
had
this
conversation
before
with
respect
to
the
need
to
celebrate
our
cat
centers.
We
do
a
lot
and
spend
a
lot
of
time
in
our
strategic
plan,
in
other
places,
talking
about
ap
classes
and
all
those
things
which
are
great
they're,
absolutely
wonderful,
but
we
also
have
to
place
some
importance
on
celebrating
our
career
readiness
programs,
and
I
thank
you
both
for
coming
in.
We
have
to
have
carpenters
to
help
build
our
homes.
Z
We
have
to
have
plumbers
and
electricians
to
help
us
make
sure
we've
got
lights
in
our
homes
and
plumbing
in
our
homes.
Those
professions
are
worthy
professions
that
we
need
people
in
and
we
need
to
help
educate
our
students
at
being.
In
so
there's
nothing
wrong
with
college
readiness.
We
need
folks
to
be
college
ready.
Z
We
also
need
folks
to
be
career
ready,
and
I
thank
you
both
for
taking
the
time
in
order
to
share
with
us
your
story,
because
it's
an
important
story-
and
I
hope
that,
as
we
go
throughout
our
future
years,
we'll
take
some
time
to
continue
to
highlight
this
important
piece.
Our
cat
centers
are
so
important
to
multiple
children
throughout
our
county,
and
so
thank
you
to
our
two
principals.
Z
Thank
you
for
working
through
all
the
logistics
that
it
takes
in
order
to
get
children
from
high
schools
and
into
your
buildings
and
back
to
their
back
to
their
schools
safely,
so
that
they
can
get
back
in
integrated
back
into
their
high
school
curriculums
and
then
back
to
their
homes,
and
so
to
both
of
you.
We
appreciate
you
giving
us
some
feedback,
because
the
numbers
are
wonderful.
Thank
you.
Ma'am.
C
C
It
was
a
very
different
message
than
we
had
heard
the
year
before
and
folks
just
reminding
us
that
some
of
the
the
highest
paid
hourly
jobs
and
vacancy
rates
are
in
fields
like
plumbing
electrical
work,
auto
work,
all
of
that
and
they're
going
unfilled,
because
our
schools,
our
k-12
systems,
aren't
necessarily
encouraging
students
to
also
pick
up
a
trade
while
they're
in
school.
It
doesn't
mean
they
can't
go
to
college,
it
doesn't
mean
they
can't.
C
You
know,
do
both,
but
the
focus
has
been
on
college
for
so
long
college
prep
that
we've
forgotten
that
career
piece
sometimes-
and
I
know
we're
again
we're
ahead
of
the
game
in
anne
arundel
county
and
especially
doing
things
where
students
can
stay
in
their
community
school
and
also
graduate
with
certifications
is
really
important.
But
that
message
is
loud
and
clear
and
you
guys
are
already
ahead
of
the
game.
So
congratulations.
C
C

If
the
board's
in
a
different
place
now
we
can
look
at
it,
but
given
the
access
to
it,
I
think
there
was
also
a
lot
of
discussion
because
we
had
a
bill
that
was
filed
and
said
you
know,
transparency
and
school
systems
to
know
where
food
you
know
where
nutritional
information
could
be
found
for
the
foods
that
we're
serving
in
our
schools,
and
so
we
thought
this
was
another
way
to
do
it,
and
since
it's
a
rag
we
could
change
it
easily,
but
you're
absolutely
correct.
We
have
had
those
conversations
at
policy
committee.
Z
C
Z
R
Called
post
huddle
falls
for
so
I
look
under
falls
because
I
think
they're
gonna
everything
that's
supposed
to
be
on,
but
no
it's
not
it's
under
post
huddle.
So
you
know,
but
if
I
didn't
know
was
so
what
I'm
saying
so
being
able
to
have
some
links
sometimes
makes
it
much
easier
and
less
frustrating
for
people
like
me.
So
I
appreciate
it.
Thank
you.
C
AE
Just
brief
jessica,
koch's
policy
and
legislative
council,
the
office
of
school
performance
and
the
technology
division
bring
policy
jco
use
of
personal
electronic
devices
by
students
to
you
for
first
reading.
This
policy
was
last
updated
january,
23
2002,
and
this
policy
and
regulation
are
being
updated
to
conform
with
changes
in
technology
and
provide
schools
with
the
flexibility
they
need
to
ensure
that
personal
electronic
devices
are
used
to
advance
educational
purposes
for
students.
R
I
did
note
okay.
I
think
this
is
great,
because
you're
always
going
to
have
the
person
that
says
well
what
happens
to
the
student
that
doesn't
have
that.
Well,
there's
going
to
always
be
that
that
thing,
but
more
students
have
it
than
don't
have
it
and
so
we'll
we
can
work
with
those
kind
of
things
and
if
you
don't
have
it
you're
not
going
to
get
punished
for
not
having
a
cell
phone.
R
That's
number
one.
Now
one
of
the
things
since
I
pay
our
cell
phone
bill
that
I
worry
about
is
the
data
usage
and
you
know,
and
so
forth,
like
that,
so
we're
not
anticipating
that
these
are
going
to
be
like
gobbling
up
a
lot
of
data
and
things
like
that
in
terms
of
how
much
your
allowances,
because
I
have
whatever
the
max
is,
but
I
mean
some
people
have
cut
offs
and
things
like
that
so
and
they
share
phones
within
families.
AE
Right
so
one
of
the
things
that
that
is
really
good
about
this.
This
regulation
and
this
policy
is
that
it
provides
flexibility
within
schools.
So
a
principal
can
make
the
determinations
based
on
his
population
and
his
demographics
within
his
school
and,
what's
available
as
to
what
appropriate
usage
is,
and
if
something
like
that
were
to
come
up,
he
could
put
restrictions
on
he
or
she
could
put
restrictions
on
how
the
devices
are
being
used.
R
R
Yeah,
and
are
we
looking
at
some?
I'm
not,
I
mean
as
we
as
we
progress,
because
the
fact
is
the
date
that
electronics
are
not
going
to
go
away
and
so
we're
going
to
have
to
be
able
to
to
look
at.
You
know
different
things
and
I
understand
not
wanting
them
to
be
able
to
access
our
thing,
because
you
know
there
are
some
really
super
smart,
kids
out
there
and
and
sometimes
it's
fun
to
try
to
beat
the
system.
So
you
know
we
don't
want
to.
R
R
And
as
we
move
forward
with
the
the
policies
and
so
forth,
like
that
in
the
student
handbook
and
the
parent
handbook,
are
we
planning
to
have
some
pieces
in
there
that
talk
about
the
electronics?
Because
the
fact
is
that
we
know
kids
bring
them
to
school
and
and
there's
there's
proper
ways
to
use
them
and
there's
improper
ways
to
use
them,
and
we
have
found
that
having
in
some
instances
having
the
cell
phone
has
actually
saved
lives
with
children
because
of
unfortunate
incidents
that
have
occurred.
So
we
don't
want
to.
R
You
know,
go
backwards,
but
we
also
want
to
make
sure
that
people
understand
that
this
is
their
property
and
they're
responsible
for
it.
You
know
so
that
if
something
happens
or
it
gets
lost,
stolen,
broken
or
things,
you
know
that
they
are
still
the
persons
who
are
responsible,
it'd
be
no
different
than
going
to
the
amusement
park
and
having
your
cell
phone
on
you
and
something
happening
as
well.
So
right.
AE
R
You
can't
have
it
so
now
that
we're
starting
where
we're
bringing
our
own
devices
we're
looking
at
more
of
those
kind
of
things.
We
need
to
make
sure
that
the
language
in
there
reflects
those
kind
of
things
as
well
and
and
that
kids
won't
be
penalized
if
they
don't
have
it
but
absolutely,
but
I
think
more
kids
are
going
to
have
it
than
not
so.
Z
Just
a
couple
of
things,
I'm
glad
to
hear
you
talk
about
cyber
security
and
nia
information.
Insurance
is
huge
across
dod
and
as
we
move
towards
that
we've
right
now
from
knowing
where
I
you
know
from
in
dealing
with
my
dod
networks
versus
dealing
here,
the
ia
associated
with
what
they're
pushing
is
a
whole
lot
more
stringent
than
than
those
ia
requirements
that
we
have
here.
You
can
plug
anything
for
the
most
part
into
this
computer,
but
we
know
we
have
chinese
thumb
drives
that
you
stick
in
and
dod
won't.
Z
Z
I'd
love
to
have
a
conversation
with
you
down
the
road
about
what
is
that
strategic
plan
as
far
as
getting
to
bring
your
own
device-
and
I
know
you
all-
are
just
starting
to
have
some
of
those
conversations,
but
hopefully
we
can
have
some
of
those
here
at
the
board
level,
so
we
have
some
kind
of
timeline
for
when
we're
going
to
see
this,
maybe
policy
brought
back
before
us
again
whether
it's
two
three
four
years,
the
last
time
this
policy
was
brought
before
us.
This
is
a
2002
policy.
Z
Z
I
hope
it
doesn't
take
us
another
10
years
to
get
to
the
point
where
we're
looking
at
these
regulations
and
policies
again
associated
with
those
I.e
concerns
addressing
those
ia
concerns,
so
we
can
get
to
bring
your
own
device
down
the
road.
The
other
thing
that
I
want
to
mention-
and
the
last
thing
is
there's
a
high
sense
of
trust
that
I
believe
this
board
is
placing
into
our
office
of
school
performance
and
our
principles,
because
we
don't
want.
Z
You
know
southern
middle
school
to
have
a
policy
regulation
at
the
principal
level
that
says
you
can't
bring
your
own.
You
can't
use
your
own
device
at
all
and
we
go
all
the
way
up
to
north
county
and
north
county's
principal
says.
Oh,
it's
wide
open
and
so
there's
a
huge
sense
of
trust
that
is
being
placed
within
principles
at
the
principle
of
building
principal
level.
Z
C
So
I'm
very
grateful
to
see
this,
and
I
just
have
a
couple
of
a
couple
of
english
professor
things,
and
then
I
have
a
question
about
one:
it's
all
in
the
regulation
on
page
one
of
three
under
procedures
where
we
start
kind
of
midway
down
where
it
says
examples
of
personal
electronic
communication
devices
include,
and
we
have
a
whole
list.
Can
we
just
say
examples
of
personal
electronic
devices
include
but
are
not
limited
to
absolutely.
AE
C
And
then
just
a
couple
questions
also
for
three,
where
3b
says
teachers
shall
determine
authorized
use,
but
the
initial
paragraph
says
the
principles
will
determine
the
extent
of
and
the
rules
related
to
the
use.
I'm
I
assume
that
the
teacher
can't
determine
the
use
unless
the
principal
has
authorized
it
set
the
intention
of
the
way
this
is
worded
right.
AE
AE
But
the
concept
is
that
the
teachers
have
within
their
classroom
some
parameters,
but
they
have
to
be
consistent
with
the
message
that
the
principal
sent
and
then
I
there
if
there's
a
question-
and
I
think
it's
in
there
somewhere
in
number
four,
so
it's
initially
determined
by
the
teacher
and
ultimately
by
the
school
administrator.
So
if
there
were
a
question,
then
that
would
go
back
to
the
school
administrator.
C
AE
C
C
And
then
what
happens
when
we
confiscate
these-
I
don't
know
if
we
will
so
much
anymore,
but
when
we've
confiscated
these
devices
for
misuse
and
take
you
know
the
principle
keep
them
in
the
drawer
until
the
parent
can
come
in
and
collect
them.
What's
our
liability
there
when
we're
holding
on
to
somebody's
right.
AE
C
AG
AG
D
Just
a
question:
I've
had
a
couple
of
teachers
who
have
remarked
to
me
that
there
is
a
major
there's,
a
problem
with
cell
phones.
The
students
will
go
in
and
they'll
take
a
picture
of
the
test,
send
it
on
to
their
fellow
friends
who
are
taking
the
test
later
in
the
day.
Is
that
do
you
hear
a
lot
of
that
and
what
I
mean
I
said.
Well,
it's
obvious
to
me.
I
would
collect
those
cell
phones
when
you
walked
in
the
door
for
that
test
and
teachers
said
it's
not
such
a
good
idea.
D
D
Tell
me
about
that.
I
mean
what
would
the
teacher
do
because
I
can
understand
the
impact
of
collecting
all
those
cell
phones,
but
I
can
also
understand
the
impact
to
the
teachers.
They
said
well,
this
one
teacher
said
I'm
just
making
different
tests
for
everyone.
Well,
that
is
a
lot
I
mean
that
is
difficult
and
it
could
be
done
on
standardized
tests.
For
that
matter
I
mean.
I
think
this
is
a.
Is
that
a
problem
you
seeing
or
what's
the
solution
or.
AG
C
D
M
C
C
X
These
are
thank
you
we
have
to
miss
now.
We
have
to
trust
that
the
students
are
going
to
use
these
educational
instruments
appropriately.
Just
like
we're
going
to
trust,
mr
jackson,
that
the
principals
and
teachers
are
going
to
move
with
this
policy,
both
the
letter
and
the
spirit
of
what
we're
trying
to
create.
So
we
have
trust
in
our
principles
in
our
teachers
and
in
our
students.
You
can
see
just
from
a
couple
of
questions
that
have
come
out.
X
We
could
paralyze
ourselves
just
through
these
questions,
and
so
I
think
this
is
we're
scratching
the
surface.
When
we're
going
to
be
able
to
bring
this
back.
Mr
jackson,
I
hope
less
than
10
years,
but
I
couldn't
give
you
a
date
and
I'll
tell
you
that
now
publicly,
I
don't
know
the
next
time
it's
going
to
come
forward,
because
we
don't
know
where
this
is
going
to
go.
We've
got
to
sort
of
get
our
arms
around
how
to
manage
all
these
different.
We
can't
be
responsible
for
all
different
devices
that
are
out
there.
X
We
can't
bring
them
all
onto
the
network
at
the
same
time
for
the
security
of
the
overall
system.
You
well
know
in
the
work
that
you
do
so
we've
got
a
lot
to
learn.
This
is
scratching
the
service,
but
I
think
it's
the
first
step
in
the
right
direction.
To
begin
to
involve
technology
in
the
learning
process,
with
our
students
and
we're
going
to
trust
the
students
going
to
do
the
right
thing
that
the
teacher
is
going
to
do
the
right
thing
that
our
principal
is
going
to
do
the
right
thing.
R
And
you
have
to
look
at
this
as
a
cough
saving
thing,
because
I
saw
this
last
night.
Mr
tooten
did
a
little
story
on
this,
and
one
of
the
students
was
talking
about
how
you
know.
In
the
past
we
had
these
things
called
santios
or
we
used
to
call
them
clickers
and
you
have
to
pass
them
all
out,
and
then
they
put
something
on
the
whiteboard
and
you'd
click
and
you'd
get
the
answer.
R
Well
now
they
can
use
it
with
an
app
right
there
on
their
phone
and
they
can
do
it
and
they
get
immediate
responses.
Immediate
assessment-
and
so
you
know,
there's
there's
really
great
stuff.
That's
going
on
with
the
use
of
these
devices
and
then
we
as
a
school
system,
don't
have
to
buy
all
these
santios,
and
so
we
can
spend
our
money
someplace
else.
So
I'm
just
you
know
it's
a
cost.
Saving
too.
Z
Thank
you
ma'am.
I
agree
with
you,
dr
lotta.
This
is
scratching
the
surface.
The
reason
I
asked
the
question
about
the
longer
term
vision
is
not
because
I
expect
an
answer
that
we're
going
to
bring
this
policy
and
regulation
back
next
year
or
or
from
or
five
years
from
now,
but
because
I
really
want
us
as
a
board
to
be
a
part
of
the
conversation,
that's
going
to
take
some
time
to
work
through.
I
think
this
is
scratching
the
surface,
but
the
real
reason
I
asked
the
question
about.
Z
When
are
we
going
to
move
or
when
of
being?
When
can
we
be
apart?
Or
when
can
we
have
another
conversation
associated
with
moving
past
this
as
we
scratch
the
surface
here
is
because
a
lot
of
parents
excuse
me
a
lot
of
children.
We
know
what
25
000
of
our
children
live
in
poverty,
they're
not
going
to
have
necessarily
all
of
them
access
to
internet
on
their
own,
and
so,
when
you
think
about
that,
you
think
about
the
ipod
and
how
it's
different
from
the
cell
phone.
Z
The
ipod
has
no
necessary
data
that
you
can
go
out
a
service
with
it.
But
if
you
have
a
bring
your
own
device
kind
of
policy,
then
they
can
at
least
connect
to
a
network.
That's
there
so
you're
talking
about
children
in
some
cases
may
have
access
to
an
ipod
but
might
not
have
access
to
an
ipad
with
service,
and
so
I
was
in
saying
that
we
wanted
to
be.
Z
I
wanted
to
be
a
part
of
that
conversation
or
have
another
conversation
about
the
strategic
vision
of
bring
your
own
device,
and
so
forth
is
because
we,
the
the
sooner
we're
able
to
have
that
that
conversation
and
continue
to
have
that
conversation.
The
sooner
hopefully
excuse
me
we
can
move
to
as
we
scratch
the
surface
here.
Z
The
sooner
we
can
move
towards
touching
even
more
children
that
might
not
have
access
to
their
own
data
plans,
and
so
it's
important
to
me,
because
those
kids
are
going
to
be
the
kids
that
don't
have
the
money,
their
parents,
don't
have
the
money
to
pay
those
bills
for
service,
but
they
might
have
money
to
at
least
buy
an
ipod.
That
is
the
hardware
that
needs
the
connection
associated
to
your
to
to
the
school
system
network.
Those
children
are
children
that
live
in
poverty
and
they
need
help
being
able
to
touch
the
internet.
Z
Just
like
everybody
else.
We
know
we
have
25
000
of
our
80
000,
nearly
80
000
children
that
live
in
poverty.
We
know
that,
and
so
that's
the
only
reason
that
I'm
not
asking
for
a
hard
fast
one
conversation
about
it.
But
what
I'm
saying
is
we
need
to
be
dialoguing
about
that,
as
here
at
the
board
level
to
be
able
to
know
where
we're
going
and
in
hopes
that
it
doesn't
take
10
years
in
order
to
be
able
to
be
back
here
at
the
table.
Thank
you.
AE
The
office
of
financial
operations
brings
policy
dvk
classification
of
fund
balances
to
you
for
first
reading.
This
is
a
new
policy
and
a
new
regulation
that
provide
guidance
and
limitations
regarding
classification
and
the
use
of
board
fund
balances.
This
policy
will
be
posted
on
our
website
for
30
days
for
public
comment,
we
will
answer
any
questions
you
have
about
this
policy.
R
AH
Yes,
ma'am
there's.
There
are
essentially
no
fund
balances
that
are
mandated
by
the
state,
but
there
are
certain
types
of
fund
balances
that
are
permissible
by
the
state.
The
the
purpose
of
this
document
really
is
essentially
a
definitions
document
and
it's
to
allow
the
users
of
our
budget
and
the
public
when
they
see
these
different
financial
categories,
to
be
able
to
have
a
a
plain
text,
definition
of
what
that
fund
is
for
and
what
its
purpose
is.
So
this
is
really
to
help
our
end
user
as
they're
working
through
our
budget
documents.
AH
C
C
R
Not
related
to
this,
but
in
sort
of
related
to
this,
as
as
mrs
corbilak
mentioned,
when
we
were
down
in
nashville,
we
one
of
the
things
we
could
do
on
the
friday
was
to
go
and
visit
a
performing.
Well,
it
was
a
magnet
entertainment
school
and
they
had
people
who
do
performances,
but
they
were
based
in
business
and
they
learned
about
contracts.
They
learned
about
how
to
write
contracts.
R
They
learned,
you
know
all
the
business
kind
of
side
of
of
the
music
industry
because
they
were
focused
on
the
music
industry
and
so
forth,
and
so
that
got
me
thinking.
I
mean
we
have
a
lot
of
students,
a
lot
of
our
very
talented
students
who
will
eventually
be
working,
maybe
in
the
theater
they
may
be,
they
may
be
in
a
dance
company.
They
may
be
a
recording
artist
of
some
sort.
Things
like
that,
so
looking
future
wise
in
terms
of
courses
and
stuff
or
we
may
already
have
do.
R
We
have
any
kind,
of
course,
that
talks
about
the
how
to
protect
yourself-
and
I
think
back
to
the
50s
and
60s
of
those
great
artists
that
are
broke
now,
because
unscrupulous
people
and
they
didn't
pay
they
were
they
were
into
their
music.
They
weren't
really
paying
attention
to
the
business
side
of
it
sure.
N
N
Specifically
about
dance
education,
I
was
intimately
involved
with
that
with
for
seven
years
and
a
course
in
our
dance
company,
honors
class
specifically
talked
about
dancer
health,
dance,
reliability,
longevity
contracts,
those
sorts
of
things,
but
very
limited
to
just
the
dance
side.
Miss
khan
is
not
here,
but
to
represent
the
visual
and
performing
arts
program
we
have
in
the
school
system
is
schneider.
AI
Hi
laurie
snyder,
yes,
so
as
modules
in
some
of
the
courses
that
are
already
written,
we
have
a
production
and
technology
courses
that
have
been
in
place
for
our
freshmen
and
sophomores,
and
they
have
those
modules
as
part
of
it.
We're
also
moving
forward
if
you'll
see
the
broadcast
and
recording
course
is
open
for
all
of
our
students,
not
one
particular
arts.
Major
and
beyond
that
we're
working
on
a
business
course
for
artists,
pearl.
B
R
Have
their
own
label,
they
only
have
they
have
their
own,
that's
under
warrant,
and
I
know
we
can't
do
that,
but
but
they
had
their
own
recording
label
and
stuff
we
could
maybe,
but
but
you
know
the
and
the
music
makers
is
a
big
thing
down
there.
Anyway,
I
was
just
and
that's
because
you
you
want
to
be
able
to
protect
the
artist
as
well.
You
know
I
mean
and
and
that
whole
creativity
part,
and
sometimes
we
you
know,
get
lost
in
our
creativity
and
we
sometimes
forget
the
business
end
of
it.
C
I'll
piggyback
on
mrs
richie's
question
with
the
completer
programs,
with
the
transportation,
logistics
and
cargo
security
and
information
technology.
The
other
thing
we
saw
at
this
same
high
school
was
that
the
students
who
were
studying
visual
arts
and
film
were
getting
certifications
in
the
software
suite.
So
they
graduated
with
you
know,
certification
in
the
adobe,
suite
or
final
cut
pro
or
whatever
it
was
they
were
using.
Is
that
something
that
we're
looking
at?
Yes
for
our
pva
as
well.
C

My
question
actually
resides
around
the
jrotc
marine
corps.
Tell
me:
do
we
have
a
marine
corps,
lieutenant
colonel
retired
wha?
What
do
we
have?
That
is
going
to
be
teaching
like
for
annapolis?
They
have
a
an
o5
retiree.
I
think
that
exactly
is
he
an
employee
of
anne
arundel,
county,
public
schools
or
and
the
reason
I
asked
that
back.
Our
question
is
because
I
don't
know
how
is
this
employee?
I
mean,
how
is
this
person
that's
going
to
be
leading
and
teaching
the
class?
AF
Z
And
I
see
here
from
the
write-up,
you
currently
have
72
students
that
have
requested
it
for
the
15-16
year.
Do
you
have
any
idea
pipeline
wise
what
you
think
you
would
have,
and
what
does
75
students
really
equate
to?
Is
that
two
different
class
sessions
associated
with
covering
that
or
is
that
I
mean
it's
not
all
of
them
in
one
class,
but
I'm
assuming
what
24
or
something
like
that
per
class
you're
talking
about
two
or
three
classes:
correct.
AF
It
will
it'll
be
for
it'll
cover
three
actual
sections
and
then,
along
with
that,
there's
also
a
number
of
administrative
duties
that
the
instructor
the
instructor
will
have
to
do
in
order
to
build
and
administrative
duties
actual
labor
to
work
and
set
up
the
program
and
also
build
around
programs
that
go
after
school
programs
and
also
summer
programs
as
well
yeah.
But
you
have
a
second
part.
N
To
that
question,
mr
jackson,
this
program
is
a
direct
response
of
community
interest
and
and
meeting
the
needs
of
of
what
was
brought
forth
to
us.
So
mr
williams
and
dr
cubic
before
him
embrace
this
opportunity
for
this
school,
this
particular
school
community.
It
is
new.
We've
actually
met
with
folks
from
the
marine
corps
and
there's
a
lot
of
momentum
behind
it.
AF
Z
R
Are
there
ever
really
any
retired
marines?
I
mean,
I
think,
they're
once
you're,
a
marine
you're,
a
marine.
We
have
gotten
questions
in
the
past
related
to
the
ones
I've
gotten
are
mainly
from
annapolis.
This.
This
is
much
like
a
signature
program
at
the
school
where
the
students
that
are
in
the
school
are
eligible
are
students
who
are
not
in
the
school
eligible
to
come
to
one
of
these,
provided
they
provide
their
own
transportation.
AF
R
Well,
I
mean,
and
it
wouldn't
be
a
magnet
program
for
any
of
them.
I
mean
I'm
just
saying:
we've
gotten
one
or
two
kind
of
or
I
have
I
don't
know.
I
can't
speak
for
anybody
else,
but
I've
got
a
couple
of
things
before
where
they
don't
think.
It's
fair
that
their
student
can't
go
to
annapolis
to
be
to
be
part
of
the
army
or
junior
rotc,
and
I
didn't
know
whether
they
were
able
to
go
to
there
if
they
provide
their
own
transportation
and
apply
to
come
into
that.
I
just.
AF
R
AF
C
R
AH
The
record
alex
checkmate
chief
operating
officer
back
in
1997
as
part
of
the
subdivision
process,
the
master
planning
of
the
entire
farmington
village
community,
a
parcel
of
land
was
deeded
to
the
board
of
education
for
a
as
a
future
school
site,
you're
correct.
We
have
no
school
there
today
and
our
current
six-year
cip
does
not
have
a
a
school,
an
active
school
project
for
that
location.
AH
However,
an
adjoining
property
owner
of
ours
is
looking
to
develop
their
parcel
and
they
need
access
to
their
parcel
of
land
someday
in
the
future.
We're
going
to
need
access
to
our
school
as
well
so
what's
happening
is
in
lieu
of
some
day
in
the
future,
the
board
of
education
having
to
construct
the
entrance
driveway
construct
the
utilities
into
the
project
to
service
our
project.
AH
AH
So
it's
really
of
a
tremendous
benefit
to
the
board
of
ed,
because
this
infrastructure
work
that
is
being
done
at
the
private
expense
will
avoid
cost
avoid
us
in
some
future
date
having
construct
that
access
way
put,
that
utility
infrastructure
etc.
So
it's
sort
of
pre-positioning
us
at
no
cost
to
us
today.
It's
pre-positioning
us
for
a
future
construction
project
and
helping
us
to
save
those
future
costs.
Once
that
day
comes.
R
Z
Yeah,
I
see
mr
coke's
name
on
here
and
he's
been
very
good
this.
That
organization's
been
very
good
about
putting
in
various
things
for
the
school
system
they
put
in
a
whole
wing.
I
believe
it
was
at
broadneck
high
school.
Could
you
do
me
a
favor
and
I'm
fine
with
with
with
with
going
forward
with
this?
I
just
I
don't
have
a
sense,
even
where
in
the
county,
this
really
is.
Where
is
this
farmington?
AH
AH
AH
C

N
N
To
quote
dr
chan,
chief,
executive
chief
health
officer
of
the
health
department.
Together,
we
can
make
good
health
happen
here
in
anne
arundel.
County
joining
me
this
morning
are
two
wonderful
representatives
of
our
schools
here
to
speak
about
elementary
schools
and
miss
shawna
kaufman
and
representing
the
secondary
schools.
As
mr
will
myers.
N
Both
principals
have
led
the
way
in
their
respective
buildings
to
cultivate
communities
of
wellness
where
students,
staff
and
stakeholders
understand
and
embrace
the
importance
of
healthy
living,
but
before
we
hear
from
them,
I
want
to
share
some
of
the
wellness
milestones
we
accomplish
this
year
in
the
area
of
partnerships,
we're
very
happy
to
highlight
the
collaboration
with
care.
First
blue
cross
blue
shield's
jump
start
program.
N
Jumpstart
is
an
employee
wellness
challenge
during
the
month
of
april
and
may
that
include
a
health
check,
self-monitoring
program,
healthy
living,
guidebooks,
weekly
motivational
messages
and
opportunities
to
win
small
rewards
along
the
way.
Activities
like
this
in
the
past
have
proven
outstanding,
proven
to
be
outstanding.
Morale
builders
have
led
to
behavior
changes
relative
to
health
and
wellness
and
improve
the
overall
working
environment
in
our
schools
board
members
in
the
event
that
you're
not
able
to
join
one
of
these
teams.
N
We've
put
a
yoga
dvd
in
front
of
you
for
you
to
use
in
the
comfort
of
your
own
home
with
permission
from
miss
judy
fay.
We
recorded
one
of
our
yoga
in
the
cafe
thursdays
here
at
central
office,
and
this
is
one
example
of
the
many
opportunities
we're
giving
our
employees
across
the
county
to
engage
in
wellness
initiatives
through
the
department
of
health.
N
N
Each
audience
learned
a
great
deal
about
these
devices,
the
access
of
our
students
and
the
access
that
our
students
have
to
these
non-burning
tobacco
options.
And,
lastly,
our
human
resources.
Division
in
support
of
wellness
initiatives
across
our
district
has
implemented
outstanding,
employee
access
programs
through
business
health
services.
N
Over
the
past
12
months,

has
provided
services
in
the
form
of

critical
incident
management,
employee
services
and
resources
anytime.
The
trauma
team
alerts,
business
health
services
with
a
request
bhs
reaches
out
to
the
principal
to
offer
tip
sheets
and
resources
for
staff,
even
if
there's
no
need
to
move
forward
with
an
on-site
counselor
in
its
first
year,
bhs
has
935
interventions
with
our
employees
with
a
95.8
resolution
rate,
and
now
I'd
like
to
transition
this
presentation
to
highlight
the
priority
work
championed
by
our
wellness
council.
N
Our
principals
are
here
to
share
with
you
the
outstanding
wellness
toolkit
created
by
our
wellness
council.
The
wellness
council's
work
focus
on
developing
q,
a
and
resources
for
all
10
of
the
cdc
school
health
components
to
provide
school
leadership
teams
with
a
single
site
resource
here.
To
present
the
work
are
ms
jonah
kaufman
and
will
myers.
T
Good
morning
I'm
shawna
kaufman
the
principal
at
arnold,
elementary
school
and
also
a
member
on
the
wellness
council.
Can
I
go
ahead
and
yeah?
Okay,
okay,
so
on
our
intranet?
Well,
first
of
all,
I
just
like
to
say
that
the
wellness
council
is
an
amazing
group
of
members
and
community
partners.
It's
rather
large.
If
you
come
to
one
of
our
meetings,
we
barely
fit
around
the
the
large
tables
that
are
in
the
conference
room
upstairs,
but
it's
also
wonderful
because
it
represents
so
many
resources
we
have
available
in
anne
arundel
county.
T
I
truly
believe
we're
blessed
to
live
in
this
area
because
there's
so
much
available
to
us
as
community
members,
as
well
as
the
school
system
and
speaking
from
a
principal
you,
you
hear
about
the
wellness
school
of
distinction-
you're,
not
quite
sure.
Oh,
that
seems
kind
of
nice.
But
what
do
you
really
have
to
do
to
get
there
and
what
would
I
do
as
a
principal
to
even
begin,
and
so
that's
kind
of
where
the
wellness
council
focused
this
year
on?
T
How
can
we
help
school
administrators
really
find
the
resources
that
are
out
there
and
bring
it
to
our
school?
And
what
does
that
look
like
in
the
school
setting,
and
so
this
wellness
toolkit
is
really
what
we
ca.
We
came
up
with
and
it
it's
beginning
to
be
a
useful
tool
that
is
really
going
to
become
something
wonderful
and
helping
the
schools
that
would
like
to
incorporate
more
wellness
and
become
a
wellness
school
of
distinction.
T
T
It's
so
new,
we're
still
trying
to
remember
where
we
put
it.
So
here
is
our
model
for
the
wellness
tool.
Kit.
All
of
the
blue
areas
are
areas
in
the
application
that
principals
have
to
address,
and
you
have
to
identify
what
are
you
doing
as
a
school
to
in
these
different
areas
to
make
sure
that
you
are
a
well-rounded
wellness
school
and
the
real
philosophy
is
the
the
child
as
the
center,
as
you
can
see
in
the
graphics
that
the
child
is
really
where?
T
Why
we're
here
and
making
a
healthy
child
is
very
important
and
to
do
that
requires
a
lot
of
different
things.
It's
not
just
one
or
two
things
makes
you
well,
it's
lots
of
different
components,
and
so
these
are
all
the
different
areas.
This
can
be
very
overwhelming.
If
an
administrator
looks
at
this
like
there
is
no
way
I'm
going
to
be
able
to
do
this,
but
with
the
help
of
this
tool
you
can
click
on
different
areas,
and
it
will
give
you
some
support
and
resources
that
you
can
say.
Oh
wait,
a
minute.
T
I
think
I'm
already
kind
of
doing
that,
or
I
know
a
parent
that
could
really
help
me
with
this
or
I
there's
another
school
that
I
know
that
does
this
so,
for
example,
if
we
kind
of
go
over
to
I'll
pick,
the
family,
engagement,
piece
and
theresa
tutor
has
been
a
big
part
of
this
she's
on
the
wellness
council
as
well,
and
if
we
scroll
over
just
a
little
bit,
you
can
see
on
the
side.
We've
got
like
a
q,
a
of
kind
of
where
do
I
get
started?
T
What
are
some
things
I
should?
I
could
do
as
a
school
for
this,
and
this
is
a
family
resource.
So
nutrition
is
a
big
big
part
of
wellness
and
as
a
parent
or
maybe
as
a
pta.
What
could
I
do
for
that?
So
you
can
see
that
there
are
some
different
questions.
What
are
some
healthy
snacks
I
can
make
for
my
children?
T
How
can
we
make
sure
we
encourage
healthy
snacks
in
school
as
well,
and
then
there's
a
family
resource
button
that
you
can
click
and
you
can
see
there's
numerous
different
resources
available
for
this.
So
this
kind
of
helps
a
wellness
committee
at
a
school
to
figure
out
what
areas
can
I
go
to?
What
can
I
pick
and
choose
and
kind
of
find
different
ways
to
make
this
an
easier
task
for
my
school
and
eventually
make
it
a
healthier
school
for
our
staff
and
our
students,
which
is
the
main
goal.
AJ
Well,
good
afternoon,
for
the
record
on
will
myers
principal
at
south
river
high
school.
You
may
have
read
recently
that
I
have
the
happiest
job
in
the
world
and
today
it's
been
pretty
good
to
be
a
seahawk,
so
go
seahawks.
I've
always
been
a
proponent
of
a
sound
mind
and
body.
So
when
I
was
asked
to
join
the
wellness
council,
it
just
seemed
like
a
natural
fit
and
with
mr
liverman's
leadership
and
with
skips
tireless
efforts
and
jody's
tireless
efforts.
It
was
a
win-win
for
everybody.
AJ
As
you've
already
heard,
the
council
is
rather
large
and
it
encompasses
a
great
deal
of
people
from
across
the
county.
So
it's
been
a
marvelous
collaboration
of
folks.
What
is
really
amazing
to
me
is
that
in
a
short
period
of
time,
we've
come
up
with
this
toolkit
and
we've
put
together
so
many
resources
for
the
schools.
AJ
The
wellness
council's
theme,
as
it
came
down
from
the
state
department,
was
begin
wellness
with
the
students
in
the
schools,
and
we
have
taken
that
to
infuse
the
community
and
all
the
services
that
we
can
use
as
support
for
the
community.
This
toolkit
is
is
really
amazing.
I'm
not
going
to
walk
you
through
all
the
features
of
it,
but
you
might
ask
well
okay:
well,
how
did
you
become
a
wellness
school
of
distinction?
You
know
when
we
got
that
as
the
first
high
school
in
the
county.
We
didn't
have
this
tool
kit.
AJ
I
did
have
the
advantage,
though,
of
working
on
the
wellness
council,
so
I
knew
many
of
the
things
that
we
needed
to
shoot
for
so
what
we
said
as
a
group
was,
how
can
we
help
all
of
our
schools
achieve
that
distinction?
And
that
was
the
birthplace
of
this.
This
particular
toolkit
and
you
asked
me
well:
how
does
the
school
get
started?
AJ
Well,
first,
you
get
a
group
of
motivated
people
and
then
open
the
toolkit,
because
if
you
use
this
toolkit,
it
walks
you
through
step
by
step
the
things
you
would
need
to
become
a
school
of
well
a
wellness
school
of
distinction,
but
it's
more
than
that.
You
know.
Typically,
schools
have
been
the
hub
in
the
community.
AJ
You
know
the
hub
of
education,
the
hub
of
services,
so
what
better
place
to
start
a
theme
of
wellness
that
just
diffuses
throughout
your
community-
and
I
can
tell
you
that,
for
our
school
and
many
of
the
schools
I've
seen,
we
are
outreaching
to
the
community,
whether
it's
with
all
the
different
health
services
that
we
support
or
we
bring
into
school.
It
becomes
a
theme
in
your
building.
AJ
You
know
in
our
school
it's
interdisciplinary,
we
use
it
in
our
classrooms.
The
teachers
are
part
of
that
theme,
along
with
the
parents
and
the
students
it
supports.
All
of
the
organizations
that
I
said
you
know
we're
doing.
Walking
for
wellness
is
as
one
of
our
classes,
but
now
we've
actually
put
dots
up
in
our
hallways,
so
as
they
walk,
they
can
actually
calculate
their
miles
and
know
how
much
they're
getting
as
far
as
exercise
we're
involved
in
really
for
life
polar
bear
plunge
special
olympics.
AJ
These
are
all
outgrowths
of
our
students
being
involved
in
wellness
themes
throughout
the
community.
So
this
is
not
just
a
one
constricted
silo.
This
thing
has
just
spread
so
so
generously
out
in
the
community
and
we've
only
scratched
that
surface
we've
only
begun
this
work
and
over
the
next
few
years,
I'll
I'll
guarantee
that
to
be
a
lot
more
schools
of
distinction.
N
Thank
you
shauna.
Thank
you.
Will
I
want
to
take
the
board
on
a
little
bit
of
a
tour,
real,
quick.
One
of
the
features
that
I
think
is
most
remarkable
about.
The
wellness
site
is
in
a
single
central
location
on
our
intranet
is
our
a
calendar
of
wellness
activities,
and
these
are
all
as
well
said,
community
activities,
whether
they
be
the
farmer's
market,
a
5k
run
to
benefit
spca
or
what
have
you
all
of
our
wellness
members
have
access
to
this
calendar
and
can
populate
it,
and
this
goes
through
the
entire
school
year.
N
The
other
feature
that's
pretty
cool.
Is
we've
tried
to
consolidate
what
months
stand
for
what
thing
so
we've
done
a
an
actual
year
of
all
of
the
months
and
what
those
months
are
dedicated,
as
you
all
know,
as
a
board
that
in
the
month
of
may,
I
typically
come
forth
and
it's
national
physical
education
and
physical
fitness
month,
and
we
have
a
dedication
for
that.
N
But
there's
wellness
causes
throughout
the
entire
year,
so
we've
collect
we've
collected
all
that
information
and
tried
to
make
it
easier
for
our
schools,
and
that
was
the
number
one
theme
of
this
work
this
year
of
the
council
under
mr
liverman's
direction.
Is
we
want
to
really
try
to
rein
in
all
of
the
information?
N
One
last
point
and
it
talks
about
the
information
that
ms
kutch
has
just
shared.
We
not
just
wellness
policy
issues,
but
any
policy
in
the
school
system
that
has
a
wellness
feature
like
epipens
or
allergies,
or
things
like
that.
We've
consolidated
all
that
into
one
one
central
place
again
for
reference
for
our
principles
in
school
leadership,
so
they
didn't
have
to
go
through
all
of
the
different
areas
of
the
of
the
policy
in
order
to
find
those
wellness
pieces.
N
R
Is
this
gay?
Is
this
portal
only
open
to
intra
net,
not
internet?
Okay?
Are
we
gonna
do
anything
where
we're
gonna
have
some
some
out
so
like
when
you
well?
That's
exactly
what
I
was
talking
about,
because
you
know
I
mean
the
motto
in
pta
is:
if
you
feed
them,
they'll
come
so
right.
So
that
way
they
can,
they
can
make
sure
you
know
that
they're
doing
some
healthy
activities
that
bring
people
in
that
also
provide
food
and
stuff.
R
And
partnerships:
it
is
a
total
collaboration
and
partnership
with
their
school
system
and
the
many
agencies
and
and
the
the
great
part
about
it
is.
We
all
have
our
own
things
we're
kind
of
doing,
but
this
helps
to
be
able
to
raise
awareness
of
what's
going
on
in
other
areas
that
we
may
not
necessarily
know
about,
but
also
it's
also
a
way
to
to
say
have
a
resource.
So
it's
terrific
thanks.

Jessica,
kutch's
policy
and
legislative
council,
the
board,
exhibit
you
have
in
front
of
you-
includes
accurate
information
regarding
bills
in
which
actions
were
taken.
As
of
march
31st.
There
has
been
movement
on
several
bills
since
that
date
of
note
on
a
local
level
house
bill,
727,
anne
arundel,
county
board
of
education,
wireless
telecommunication,
towers,
moratorium
and
report
that
bill
did
fail
in
committee.
AE
It
was
voted
unfavorably
through
the
house
ways
and
means
committee,
so
we
will
not
see
that
bill
again
this
legislative
session
beyond
that,
the
bills
that
are
included
there's
only
one
bill-
that's
actually
been
enrolled,
so
unless
you
have,
which
means
it
will
be
awaiting
the
governor's
signature.
So
unless
you
have
specific
questions
about
any
of
the
updates
or
any
of
the
bills,
we
will
provide
a
comprehensive
report
to
you
after
signing
die,
which
is
april
13th.

Q
Q
Grief
happens
anytime,
there's
a
change
really
or
loss.
We
tend
to
think
of
it
in
terms
of
of
death,
but
they're
really
many
ways
that
we
all
experience
grief
just
through
the
normal
process
of
our
lives.
There
can
be
an
element
of
grief,
even
in
moving
from
you
know,
third
grade
to
fourth
grade
that,
because
there
are
changes,
different
teachers,
perhaps
different
friends,
sometimes.
AM
AK
W
AM
Have
a
sudden
and
unexpected
loss,
or
you
have
cumulative
losses
where
that
person
has
repeated
the
experience
loss
it
can
make
the
the
process
more
difficult
or
if
there
was
an
ambivalent
conflicted
relationship
with
the
person
who's
deceased.
All
of
these
things
can
make
that
process
a
little
bit
more
complicated
for
the.
