In
the
creative
world
of
Education,
today,
students
can
construct
and
demonstrate
their
understanding
in
many
ways.
Traditionally,
they
are
asked
to
communicate
their
learning
through
a
report
or
on
a
test.
However,
when
they
are
involved
in
arts
integration,
their
learning
is
evident
in
the
products
they
create,
such
as
the
dance
painting
or
dramatization.
C
Arts
integration
strategies
have
been
incorporated
into
the
county
curriculum
scores
of
teachers
have
been
trained
and
hundreds
of
exemplar
lessons
written
arts
integration
has
become
an
essential
strategy
in
our
school
system
in
connecting
21st
century
learners
to
rigorous
relevant
engaging
coursework
as
part
of
the
five-year
plan
of
implementation,
curricula
has
been
single-handedly
enhanced
through
strategies
and
techniques
by
Pat.
Her
expertise
in
visual
thinking,
strategies,
professional
development
and
coaching
have
been
invaluable.
Pat
passionately
believes
that
integrating
the
arts
is
the
best
approach
to
teaching
as
it
enriches.
C
The
classroom
environment
with
the
arts
engages
students
and
motivates
learning
Pat's
mission
is
to
help
all
teachers
realize
that
they
can
teach
through
the
Arts.
Her
professional
development
strategies
help
teachers
rethink
the
roles
they
play
in
their
relationship
with
students.
Those
who
work
with
Pat
are
constantly
inspired
by
her
creativity,
enthusiasm
and
dedication
to
the
Arts.
Pat
coordinates
a
variety
of
opportunities
for
teachers
to
learn
about
and
immerse
themselves
in
arts
integration.
C
These
opportunities
impact
teachers
approach
to
instruction
engaging
their
students
in
a
variety
of
ways:
Pat
writes
a
weekly

blog
for
Education,
closet
comm
and
conducts
professional
development
in
her
field
for
school
districts
not
only
locally
but
nationally.
She

Towson
University
for
the
Arts
cohort,
which
has
graduated
over
30
staff
with
a
post-baccalaureate
certificate
in
arts
integration.
C
Pat
cloth
learning
through
the
arts
is
a
dynamic
way
to
engage
students
as
it
lets
them,
use
their
imagination
and
creativity
as
their
methodology
of
learning
each
and
every
day.
Arts
integration
is
for
any
subject
any
time.
So,

reasons
and
more,

is
someone
who,
at
her
first
volunteers,
meeting
fully
embraced
an

Since
then,
she
has,
according
to
one
avid

exceeded
all

K
She

Quick
transition
from
a
phys
ed
teacher
in
the
gym
to
the
avid
instructor
in
the
health
classroom
is
now
worryfree.
She
goes
all
out.
Mr.

exclaimed,
tutoring

are
listed
on
whiteboards,
so
the
students
immediately
know
where
to
go
and
Allsop

This

Climate
principal
Kimberly

wholeheartedly
endorses
the
volunteer

the

award
for
mrs.

K
She
writes
by
building
positive
relationships
with
our
students.
Mrs.
Howard
impacts
our
students
in
positive
ways
that
will
stay

them
long
after
they
leave
Marley.
Thank
you,
mrs.
Howard.
Would
you
please
come
forward
with
great
appreciation?
I
present
this
volunteer
of
the
month
certificate
and
Bell
to
you.
K
K
B
And
we'll
take
some
pictures
of
all
of
you
at
the
break
shortly.
The
next
item
on
the
agenda
is
2.09,
school
and
community
highlights
before
I
go
into
that
I
neglected
to
mention
that
our
real
student
board
member,
our
current
student
board
member,
is
taking
AP
exam,
so
so
we're
back
next
time
and
we
wish
her
the
best
of
luck
today
and
I
also
did
want
to
acknowledge
that
this
is
teacher
appreciation
week.
B
So
if
you
have
not
taken
time
to
appreciate
a
teacher
this
week,
I
would
encourage
you
to
get
one
of
those
old-fashioned
pens
and
paper.
Note
cards
out
and
write
a
handwritten
note.
Teachers
love
those
sorts
of
mementos.
They
keep
them
in
their
files
forever.
So
take
some
time
and
thank
a
teacher
this
week
before
the
week
ends
all
right.
Do
we
have
any
highlights
since
the
summer.
C
C
I,
don't
know
what
their
sport
was,
but
they
were
very
good
at
dance
and
The
Little
Mermaid
production
at
North,
County,
High
School
was
excellent
so
that
big,
the
stage
craft
that
our
students
have
and
the
sets
that
they
design
are
amazing.
It
was
quite
impressive
scholarships
for
scholars
scholarships
that
we
give.
We
gave
to
dozens
of
our
students
last
week
and
that
was
so
impressive.
That's
the
retired
teachers
association
is
involved
with
that
and
many
of
our
other
community
partners,
and
it
was
great
to
see
some
of
our
outstanding
students
recognize
yesterday.
C
I
attended
the
recognition
ceremony
for
our
cat,
Salle
students
and,
if
you
ever
want
to
be
impressed
and
feel
confident
about
who
is
going
out
into
our
workforce,
you
need
to
go
to
one
of
our
cat
centers
and
see
what
they're
doing
these
students
were
recognized
for
and
receive
certifications
in
a
variety
of
careers
across
the
across
the
board.
They
are
headed
straight
into
the
workforce.
Many
of
them
one
young
lady,
has
completed
three
certification
programs
and
her
associate's
degree.
C
They
have
been
recognized
as
one
of
the
outstanding
gifted
and
talented
programs
in
the
state,
and
so
she
highlighted
for
us
all
the
great
extracurriculars
and
advanced
enrichment
programs
that
they
have
it's
Taverna,
Park,
Elementary
and
I
know.
All
of
our
schools
offer
those
things.
Severna
Park
was
just
an
excellent
showcase
to
put
them
out
there,
but
it
really
is
impressive
to
see
everything.
That's
going
on
to
challenge
our
students
in
so
many
different
ways
there.
As
she
said.
What
is
what
makes
this
a
successful
teacher?
C
Is
it
magic
or
is
it
skill
and
it's
a
combination
of
the
two
and
definitely
at
Severna
Park?
You
could
see
the
magic
working
in
the
classrooms
and
then
yesterday
was
really
exciting.
This
birch
and
I
were
able
to
go
for
the
kickoff
of
crab
radio,
which
is
the
new
school
system,
radio
station,
in
conjunction
with
Maryland
Hall,
and
we're
looking
for
it'll,
be
student
programming
and
we're
looking
forward
to
when
it
becomes
totally
student-run
so
104.7.
C
If
you're
in
the
Annapolis
area,
it's
not
a
super
strong
signal
but
you'll
be
able
to
get
that
you'll
hear
our
students
performing
and
doing
so.
That's
really
exciting,
so
that
was
very
fun
to
see.
We
wanted
to
push
all
the
buttons,
but
we
didn't
because
we
don't
wouldn't
have
been
able
to
pay
for
if
we
broke
it,
but
the
crab
radio
is
very
exciting.
So,
looking
forward
to
that
partnership,
mrs.
K
J
K
Just
wanted
to
make
sure
everybody
knew
about
that,
because
I
think
that's
one
of
the
most
exciting
parts
is
that
the
community
can
really
become
a
part
of
this
radio
station
and
I
also
had
the
opportunity
to
the
scholarship
for
scholars,
and
that
is
an
amazing
event
to
see
what
the
students
in
our
County
have
done
when
they're
in
high
school
and
what
they're
going
to
be
doing.
It's
it's
phenomenal.
Just
what
these
kids
are
able
to
accomplish.
K
I
didn't
understand
some
of
the
things
that
they've
accomplished,
because
it's
a
little
over
my
head,
but
that's
fantastic.
That's
wonderful!
That's
the
way
it
should
be.
Also
we
haven't
mentioned
that
it.
We
had
the
Teacher
of
the
Year
awards
last
week
and
what
an
amazing
group
of
teachers
it
was
I,
can't
imagine
being
on
the
selection
committee.
H
B
C
More
thing
about
crab
radio:
this
has
been
a
multi-year
project
to
get
there
and
one
of
the
things
only
in
our
area
that
when
you
run
into
roadblocks
sometimes
or
challenges
you
have
to
overcome
as
they're
trying
to
work
on
the
tower
and
get
things
they
had
to
work
around
osprey
mating
season,
because
if
they
caught
the
Osprey
were
mating.
If
you'd
went
up
there,
they
would
kind
of
if
they
were
in
the
midst
of
amorous
activities,
they
would
attack.
P
Hi
good
morning,
Melanie
Tiger,
chair
of
the
CAC.
We
continue
to
me
the
second
Monday
of
every
month,
7
to
9
p.m.
although
we
skipped
April,
because
it
was
during
spring
break
and
we
thought
that
might
be
our
last
long
spring
break.
So
we
skipped
April,
but
we
will
have
our
last
meeting
of
the
year
this
coming
Monday
on
7
&,
9
p.m.
here
in
the
board
room.
As
you
know,
we
have
5
subcommittees
working
on
various
items
this
year
and
to
remind
you,
those
are
equity,
best
transportation,
wellness
and
life
skills,
communication
and
testing.
P
Our
subcommittees
are
finalizing
the
work
for
the
year
and
we
plan
to
submit
a
consolidated
written
report
to
the
board.
Our
goal
is
31
May,
because
that
will
be
a
week
in
advance
of
when
I
hope
to
brief
you
at
the
7
June
board
meeting,
so
you'll
be
expecting
those
in
about
a
month's
time.
This
year.
In
addition
to
the
subcommittee
work,
we've
pursued
two
other
items
that
I've
at
least
discussed
with
the
board
president
and
that
I'd
like
to
bring
to
the
board
as
well.
First,
the
term
links
for
CAC.
P
So,
as
you
likely
know
by
regulation,
the
current
term
length
is
two
years,
but
recently
we
started
talking
as
a
committee
about
the
advantages
of
possibly
extending
that
to
a
third
year.
It
would
give
us
more
continuity
and
allow
our
subcommittees
to
be
a
little
more
productive.
The
frequent
turnover
has
made
the
beginning
of
the
year
a
little
slow.
Sometimes.
On
the
other
hand,
we
are
cognizant
of
the
fact
that
we
don't
want
to
hurt
recruitment
of
new
members.
A
three-year
term
might
be
long,
especially
from
for
some
of
our
stakeholder
groups.
P
We
will
give
the
opportunity
to
extend
this
year
so
hopefully
I'll
have
an
update
that
on
June
and
second,
we
have
created
a
Facebook
page
for
the
CAC
and
we've
worked
with
Bob
Moser
to
make
sure
that
we're
maintaining
school
policies
and
the
board
president
and
I
will
send
that
link
out
to
both
before
we
go
live,
but
we're
hoping
for
that
to
me
by
the
end
of
the
year
as
well,
and
we
just
hope
to
create
another
opportunity
for
dissemination
of
information.
I'm
really
excited
about
crab
radio.
I
made
note
of
that.
Who
knows?
P
L
Good
morning,
everyone,
dr.
McMahon's
president
core
black
members
of
the
board,
I'm
Alison
Picard,
president
of
the
County
Council
of
PTAs.
We
did
have
a
fabulous
night,
April,
21st
and
I.
Think
many
in
the
room
and
many
of
you
on
the
dais
for
attending
the
council.
My
Executive
Board
and
the
Founders
Day
committee,
chaired
by
Steph
Haller,
really
really
did
take
a
leap
of
faith
with
me
as
we
went
to
change
year
old
format
of
Founders
Day,
so
it
was
fun.
There's
some
tweaking
that
still
could
happen.
L
L
Kirsten
Chapman
from
Germantown
elementary
was
awarded.
Pta
advocate
of
the
year
Ashley
Oller
King
from
Manor
View
Elementary
was
awarded
PTA
president
of
the
year
and
finally,
Debbie
nappa
Rowley
from
Chesapeake
High
School
was
named
PTA
volunteer
of
the
year.
That
was
really.
It
was
really
the
crux
of
the
whole
evening
and
it
was
exciting
to
see
them.
Their
work
be
recognized
and
it
was
really
exciting
to
see
the
energy
in
the
room.
L
L
We
are
going
to
turn
our
attention
now
to
training
will
have
PJ's
across
the
county,
are
electing
new
officers
or
retaining
some
officers.
So
we're
going
to
do
some
training
in
June
to
make
sure
we
can
keep
our
leadership
skills
top-notch
and
advocating
for
the
public
school
budget
next
week
at
the

hearing.
So
thank

All
right,
we'll
move

Hello,
my
name
is
Claudia
Keith
on
the
parent
and
former
student
in
the
county
school
system.
Last
year
in
mid-summer
asked
the
school
administration.
How
to
elementary
schools
of
the
same
size
could
have
very
different
state
rated
capacities.
The
administration
said
it
was
too
complicated
to
explain
here's
the
answer.
The
state
gives
grades
one
through
five,
a
capacity
of
23
students
per
classroom.
Other
rooms
like
multi-purpose
rooms,
art
rooms,
music
rooms,
have
a
capacity
of
zero
cross
out
classroom
on
the
plans,
replace
it
with
multi-purpose
room.
D
The
school
capacity
goes
down
without
changing
the
size
of
the
school
mix.
A
so
asked.
If
the
community
Ambassador
Program
includes
Hispanic
ambassadors,
the
administration
refused
to
answer
on
grounds
that
identifies
the
race
of
school
staff.
They
could
have
discussed
if
any
Hispanic
students
are
served
by
this
program.
They
could
have
discussed
if
the
community
Ambassador
Pro
penny
of
the
community
ambassadors
speak
Spanish.
They
did
not.
They
did,
however,
publicly
advertise
for
spanish-speaking
community
ambassador
last
December.
D
Mr.
Grandin
requested
a
report
detailing
how
to
late
starting
Elementary
School's
could
be
shifted
back
to
dismiss
before
4
p.m.
this
was
more
than
a
request.
It
was
a
motion
approved
by
majority
vote
of
the
board
majority
vote
of
the
board.
It
was
an
order
again.
There
was
no
report,
just
a
verbal,
no
hear
a
couple
of
simple
options
that
could
have
been
presented.
Mede
heights
9
buses
in
hebron,
harmon
12
buses
could
start
one
after
the
other,
virtually
any
time
of
day
with
the
addition
of
12
buses
costing
about
$700,000.
D
That
cost
is
partially
offset
by
fuel
tax
savings.
That's
the
simplest
option.
Not
the
cheapest
option
to
meet
heights
could
take
advantage
of
gaps
in
the
school
bus
routes
and
run
from
8
25
to
250,
with
the
addition
of
7
or
fewer
buses.
The
current
routes
for
need
heights
could
be
backfilled
by
hybrid
harmon
buses,
pulling
that
to
go
back
by
10
minutes
to
dismiss
just
5
minutes
later
from
current
hours.
D
The
cost
of
this
option
is
about
400
thousand
dollars
or
about
the
same
as
what
saved
and
gas
tax
exemptions
resulting
in
that
net
zero
cost,
no
change
to
the
budget.
This
analysis
took
all
5
minutes
in
the
back
of
an
envelope
this
envelope.
Your
administration
wouldn't
even
afford
the
board
5
minutes
of
effort
to
help
over
a
thousand
elementary
students.
A
third
option
involves
using
University
of
Maryland's
optimization
algorithm,
an
option
that
has
zero
costing
would
most
likely
result
in
cost
savings
and
fewer
buses
according
to
mr.
D
Douglas
is
testimony
last
month,
while
bus
routes
have
been
entered
into
the
software,
that's
more
than
enough
dated
around
the
optimization
algorithm
and
saves
money
and
buses
an
estimated
5
percent
5
percent
of
a
50
million
dollar
budget.
It's
two
and
a
half
million
dollars
it
could
be,
could
be
saving
I,
truly
believe
all
your
hearts
are
in
the
right
place.
You
ask
very
very
good
questions.
You
get
lousy
answers.
D
B
Thank
you.
Is
there
anyone
else
who
would
like
to
address
the
board
at
this
time,
all
right,
we'll
move
on
to
consent
items
we
just
have
blend
today.
Item
4.01,
a
word
of
contracts,
site
work
for
justice,
elementary
school
replacement.
This
is
an
information
to
action.
Item.
Do
I
have
a
motion
to
move
this
from
information
to
action,
all
those
in
favor.
Q
Good
morning
my
name
is
Scott
Livingston
I'm,
an
attorney
and
I
represent
CJ
Miller,
the
second
low-priced
bidder
for
this
project.
The
difference
in
money
is
X
dollars,
but
Alki.
My
client
met
the
minority
business
enterprise
goal
didn't
ask
for
a
waiver.
By
contrast,
a
low
bidder
did
ask
for
a
waiver.
It's
only
achieved
about
two-thirds
of
the
35%
goal.
Q
Here's
why
that
gets
significant.
The
way
the
board
ruled
on
it
below
the
supervisor.
All
you
have
to
do
next
time
is:
don't
contact
very
many
MBEs
just
enough
to
have
2/3
of
the
goal
and
then
assert
that
you're
going
to
do
the
rest
of
work
with
your
own
forces.
That's
a
way
to
do
things
and
that's
what
all
of
the
potential
contractors
that
I
advised
are
going
to
be
given
advice,
lest
you
treat
equal
cases
unequally
and
deny
away
for
next
time.
Q
The
bad
thing
about
that
is
that
the
MBE
program,
if
you're
an
advocate
of
MBE
programs,
which
I
happen
to
be
because
when
I
was
an
assistant
attorney
general
I,
drafted
it
40
years
ago
and
I
still
think
it's
a
good
thing
and
it's
a
core
value.
Inclusive,
inclusiveness-
and
that
varies
it's
a
core
value
of
CJ.
Cummings
analyst,
never
request
a
waiver
and
occasionally
costs
more
well.
Q
It
may
cost
more
and
get
reflected
in
a
higher
price,
but
at
least
the
General
Assembly
has
concluded
that
that's
at
price
worth
paying
in
order
to
remedy
the
lingering
effects
of
past
Asylum
arrays
discrimination.
All
that
stuff
means
is
if
we
follow
the
rules,
urban
zinc,
put
in
its
request
for
a
waiver
and
if
it
gets
granted
under
these
circumstances,
it's
going
to
invite
other
bidders
to
say
well,
Anne,
Arundel,
County
doesn't
much
really
mean
that
stuff
will
not
get
as
much
NB
participation
as
the
aspirational
goal
calls
for
will
go
in.
Q
We
get
a
cheaper
price,
get
awarded
it
and
we'll
get
a
waiver,
because
that's
what
my
old
friend
Mary
Jo
childs
was
said,
was
the
proper
way
to
handle.
This
particular
bid
protest
under
the
circumstances.
I
like
an
opportunity
to
be
heard
on
the
merits
of
the
bid
protest
other
than
after
the
contract
gets
awarded.
So
right
now,
it's
poised
to
be
awarded
I'm,
not
even
sure,
if
you
didn't
already
vote
for
that
with
that.
Q
Last
vote
for
the
consent,
routine
budget
or
agenda,
but
the
setting
here
is
that
you
want
to
have
a
bitter,
have
an
opportunity
to
be
heard
in
a
fair
manner,
open
company
meeting
like
this,
and
we
if
we
get
awarded
the
contract
a
week
or
two
or
three
for
later
from
now
it
won't
matter
to
the
board.
It
says
we'll
still
have
to
complete
the
project
in
a
timely
manner.
In
accordance
with
the
project
schedule,
it
means
we'll
have
more
overtime.
Q
A
B
J
J
R
Of
my
colleagues
are
retiring
and
I
have
to
say
something
because
they
really
have
the
three
of
them
together
have
contributed
over
a
hundred
and
twenty
years
of
service
to
Anne
Arundel
County
Public
Schools,
when
Atkinson
Louise
de
Jesu
and
Len
Evans
Louise
particularly
has
spent
47
years
in
Anne,
Arundel,
County,
Public,
Schools
and
I
want
to
commend
these
three
principles
and
tell
them
how
much
I
will
miss
them
and
how
much
the
system
will
miss
them.
Thank
you.
C
Yes,
I
was
looking
over
the
list.
We
have
eleven
of
employees
who
have
announced
their
retirements
ended
this
year.
Those
eleven
employees
together
represent
345
years
of
service
in
education
and
I.
Think
that's
incredible
and
we
are
so
grateful
for
that
they
have
given
their
careers
to
our
children.
It's
a
perch
I.
K
Think
part
of
the
reason
that
Carolyn
didn't
come
today
was
because
she
didn't
want
to
endorse
in
any
way
mrs.
did
de
Jesu
retiring
because
she's
a
little
distressed
about
it
and
she
was
thinking
about,
even
though
it's
not
really
a
vote
on
the
retirements.
She
was
thinking
about
voting
no
on
this
package,
because
that
was
going
to
be
in
there
and.
B

Is
there
any
public
comment
on
this
item?
All
those
in
favor
motion
passes
6
0.
The
next
item
on
the
agenda
is
item
5.0,
six
new
course
approvals.
This
is
an
information
to
action.
Item.
I.
Do
have
a
note
that
one
of
the
four
course
or
one
of
the
five
courses
on
here
English
language,
acquisition,
civics
and
citizenship-
will
not
be
considered
today,
but
the
rest
are
still
on
the
agenda
drive
motion
to
move
this
from
information
to
action,
all
those
in
favor.
We
now
have
an
action
item,
dr.
McMahon.
J
C
So
I'm
reading
the
descriptions
of
the
bridge
to
algebra
2
and
the
function
focus
classes.
What
is
the
difference
between
the
two
classes
because
they
both
are
scheduled
are
for
students
who
don't
necessarily
pass
a
state
test
for
algebra
and
believe
that
there's
more
resource
of
what's
the
difference
between
the
two
classes?
I,
don't.
S
T
The
second
course
is
intended
as
a
very
similar
experience,
but
in
skills
that
the
students
have
yet
been
exposed
to
in
an
effort
to
kind
of
pre
teach
some
of
the
standards
that
they
will
see
in
subsequent
coursework,
but
also
to
really
hook
that
interest
in
mathematics
in
the
real
world,
such
that
when
they
move
on
to
subsequent
coursework,
like
algebra,
2
or
higher
level.
Statistics
course
that
they
are
more
ready
to
be
successful
and
college
and
career
ready
as
they
exit
our
system.
So
will.
C
T
Great
question-
and
the
answer
is
yes
to
both:
we
would
absolutely
help
students
who
we
think
would
be
best
suited
in
these
courses,
see
the
merits
of
the
courses
and
the
benefits
of
taking
them
as
well.
Students
who
kind
of
just
feel
compelled
to
do
more
math,
which
makes
my
heart
happy,
would
absolutely
be
welcome
into
those
courses.
So.
C
When
we
do
the
map
sequencing
generally
as
Algebra
one
geometry,
algebra
2
for
some
of
our
students-
that
that
need
these
additional
classes,
do
that
will
they
be
able
to
go
directly
into
algebra?
My
concern
is
that
if
they
take
that
gear,
for
geometry,
some
of
that
remediation
is
lost
but
before
they
get
to
algebra,
but
they
don't
have
that
year
in
the
sequencing
again.
T
An
excellent
question,
and
really
we
would
help
support
schools,
support
students
in
what's
best
courses
could
be
taken
concurrently
or
they
could
be
taken
as
part
of
the
the
course
sequence.
So
as
a
sophomore
or
a
junior,
these
courses
would
be
ideal
kind
of
for
either
student
and
you're
absolutely
right.
Helping
with
that
kind
of
algebra
slide
that
we
often
refer
to
with
reading
in
the
summer.
We
would
help
do
that
work.
T
Our
current
course
sequence
also
works
to
support
that
we
do
a
lot
of
algebra
in
geometry,
but
it
is
through
that
very
specific
lens,
where
these
courses
would
afford
students
an
additional
lens
to
kind
of
both
maintain
skills,
but
also
continue
to
grow
that
interest
in
mathematics.
So
so,
yes-
and
yes-
and
this.
T
C
And
then
now
have
another
one
for
the
next
class,
that's
down
so
for
the
Engrish
English
language
acquisition,
career
literacy.
Is
this
going
to
be
offered
I
know
it's
specifically
for
some
of
our
older
students
that
are
in
there?
Is
it
offered
in
the
regular
class
the
regular
high
school,
or
is
this
just
an
evening,
high
school
class
or
is
where
we're
specifically?
Will
this
class
be
offered
being.
U
C
C
S
V
V
V
C
H
S
U
We
have
decided
not
to
move
forward
with
that
course
at
this
time,
because
after
doing
a
little
bit
more
research
into
the
requirements
for
taking
the
citizenship
test,
the
students
who
we
currently
have
in
the
newcomer
program
would
not
be
eligible
for
at
least
7
years,
and
in
talking
with
students,
they
felt
that
that
goal
was
too
far
out
for
them
right
now
and
they
prefer
courses
that
dealt
with
their
immediate
needs.
Okay,
Thank
You.
W
You,
madam
president,
and
thank
you
for
for
this
package.
I
want
to
just
ask
about
algebra
in
general,
if
that's,
okay,
the
bridge
to
algebra
2,
of
course,
I
get
it
I
understand
why
I
guess
some
of
my
concern
is:
if
we're
not
doing
the
real-world
application
enough
in
algebra
1,
are
we
discouraging
students
from
math,
or
are
we
disheartening
them
at
least
those
who
may
not
be
performing
as
well?
So
so
I
guess
you
know
that's
more
of
a
theoretical
question
that
can
spark
debate.
T
A
great
question
and
in
that
I
would
answer
it
by
saying
that
we
absolutely
do
the
things
that
I've
talked
about
in
our
algebra
1
program
currently,
but
there
is
a
broader
set
of
standards
for
students
within
that
course.
The
proposed
course
would
focus
solely
on
the
the
core
3
functions
of
students,
study
in
algebra,
1,
2,
linear
exponential
and
quadratic
functions
in
the
algebra
1
course.
They
also
do
a
deep
dive
into
statistics
as
a
standard.
B
J
N
Public
school
Maryland
meals
for
achievement
is
a
state
funded
in
a
classroom
free
breakfast
for
all
students.
So
we
currently
have
that
in
47
47
schools,
breakfast
in
the
class,
our
students
still
come
either
to
a
kiosk
for
a
grab-and-go
option
like
they
do
at
Northeast
high
school
or
they
would
come
through
the
serving
line
they
pay,
their
current
pay,
be
it
paid
for
your
reduced
and
then
they
eat
with
their
classmates
and
the
teacher
in
the
classroom.
Okay,.
X
X
S
N
C
N
N
Love
to
talk
about
that
program,
that's
a
new
program
that
we've
implemented
in
2011
in
Anne,
Arundel
County.
We
do
dinner
meals,
meals
on
Saturday
and
it
also
can
extend
to
outside
communities.
So
different
agencies
are
partnering
with
us,
like
Recreation
and
Parks,
and
we're
able
to
provide
dinner
meals
to
their
students
that
are
in
after
care.
Ok,.
N
C
K
Okay,
so
mrs.
Hummer
had
the
touchy-feely
questions
and
I
have
the
number
questions?
How
three
years
in
a
row
have
you
been
able
to
keep
your
monthly
fund
balance
high
enough
to
not
have
to
race
the
rinks?
And
what
is
the
monthly
fund
balance
because
I
know
that's
one
of
the
I
know
you
want
to
have
enough
money
on
hand
to
pay
a
certain
amount
of
bills,
because
you
need
to
pay
ahead
and
that's
one
of
the
ways
that
you
decide
whether
or
not
you
need
to
raise
prices.
So
let.
Y
Me
let
me
address
the
first
piece
of
it:
Alex
Shak,
Nova,
chief
operating
officer,
so
our
operational
targets
for
our
fund
balances
between
two
to
three
percent.
So
for
the
last
three
years
and
15,
we
were
2.1
1%
in
16
we
were
2.5
9%.
Those
are
actuals
in
17,
where
2
point
1.
3
percent
projected
we're
a
month
away
from
that
and
again
we
project
to
be
within
that
range
as
well.
So
we
always
work
closely
with
food
and
Christian
services,
accounting
and
then
your
auditor,
mr.
Y
N
You
I
think
we
have
phenomenal
staff,
you
know
support
from
the
board.
Obviously
an
executive
team
is
phenomenal,
but
the
staff
that
I
have
are
fantastic.
The
nutritious
meals
that
we
provide
are
clearly
leading
the
nation
we
do
salad
bars.
I
know
many
of
you
have
seen
our
salad
bars
in
all
of
our
schools.
N
Nutrition
is
so
important
to
us,
the
more
fresh
fruits
and
vegetables
that
we
offer
the
more
local
that
we
infuse
into
our
menus,
and
we
always
have
our
students
part
of
our
testing
process.
Our
participation
continues
to
go
up
so
with
really
effective
business
practices
in
place
and
having
our
participation
goes
up.
It
really
allows
us
to
do
the
great
things
we
do
and.
Y
That's
none
of
that's
on
the
volume
side
and
the
other
two
elements
are
because
of
volume.
Mr.
C
and
purchasing
work
aggressively
to
get
economies
of
scale,
so
we're
buying
the
commodity
at
a
preferential
pricing
structure
and
then,
to
the
extent
that
either
the
federal
or
government
or
grant
programs
continue
to
provide
more
more
revenue
per
head
or
grant
opportunities.
J
Would
be
remiss
if
I
didn't
thank
you
and
thank
you
for
your
leadership.
Well,
a
floor.
Superintendent
who
I
know
would
say
it's
your
leadership
and
your
creative
amazing
approach,
innovation,
your
partnerships,
you
build
with
the
community
that
really
take
us
where
we
are
and
and
not
only
all
of
that,
but
your
efficiency.
Thank
you.
B
Like
to
echo
that
thank
you
for
keeping
the
prices
down
for
our
students
and
Families,
that's
really
why
we're
here!

We

G
Good
morning,
president
Corps
black
members
of
the
board,
dr.
McMahon
for
the
record,
my
name
is
Lisa
Summa
Crawford
Director
of
Facilities.
The
next
three
items
presented
will
be
the
schematic
design
for
the
revitalization
of
Edgewater
Tyler
Heights
and
Richard
Henry
Lee
elementary
schools.
During
the
feasibility
studies
in
October
2016,
the
revitalization
option
was
selected
for
all
three
schools.
The
next
step
in
the
process
is
the
schematic
design
base.
The
schematic
design
translates
the
educational
specifications
into
drawings,
which
established
spatial
relationships,
adjacencies
and
circulation
patterns
for
both
the
building
and
the
site.
Z
Larry
Albert's
supervisor
of
planning,
design
and
construction.
The
Edgewater
project
was
your
ed.
Specs
were
approved
one
year
ago.
Actually,
a
fourth
and
as
Lisa
said
we
had,
the
feasibility
was
approved.
Last
October
we
project
for
this
school
would
increase
the
capacity
from
455
to
679
students.
This
is
the
same
as
was
approved
in
the
ED
specs
and
the
feasibility
study.
The
were
on
target
for
the
budget
at
the
moment
and
the
schedule
and
with
that
we'll
quickly
run
through
the
floor
plans
for
you.
AA
Good
Mori,
I'm,
Jeff
Hagen
with
word
kaboom,
opt
architects
and
I'm
going
to
walk
you
through
the
existing
conditions.
First,
if
I
could
have
the
next
slide,
please
we're
viewing
the
existing
site
plan
and
the
way
the
school
is
currently
currently
oriented.
The
the
school
is
off
of
Washington
Road,
but
the
main
entry
to
the
school
faces
to
the
west
on
the
parking
lot
area
where
the
student
drop-off
loop
is
we're
going
to
change
that
up
in
the
new
plan.
AA
This
is
our
proposed
site
plan,
as
I
mentioned,
we're
going
to
change
the
location
of
the
front
entry
to
the
building.
So
when
we
build
the
addition,
which
is
in
the
lighter
tan
color
on
the
plan,
there
we're
going
to
move
the
front
entry
to
face
Washington
Road,
and
one
of
the
reasons
for
this
is
its
twofold
one.
It's
a
phasing
item
which
will
help
us
when
we
want
to
keep
the
existing
building
up
and
running.
AA
They
enter
through
two
different
entrances
and
the
school
is
requested
that
they
all
converge
it
that
one
main
entry
point,
which
is
what
we're
going
to
provide
in
this
new
plan
parking,
will
be
split
while
parking
in
the
existing
location
on
on
the
west
side
and
then
we'll
have
additional
parking
over
on
the
east
side,
which
will
also
serve
as
the
new
student
drop-off
loop
over
there.
Bus
loop
will
be
revised,
but
essentially
stay
in
the
same
location
and
then
I'll
walk
you
through
the
existing
floor
plan.
AA
First,
you
can
see
it's
essentially
a
kind
of
a
morphed
l-shaped
building
we're
going
to
close
that
off
and
I'll
show
you
that
in
a
moment,
in
the
new
plan,
the
the
front
entry
to
the
building
is
facing
to
the
bottom
of
the
plan
you
enter
in
and
administer
your
right
as
you
make
a
left
down
that
long
hallway.
You
enter
to
you,
you
head
towards
the
cafetorium
and,
as
you
go
to
the
left
or
excuse
me,
go
to
the
left
to
the
cafetorium
go
to
the
right
and
then
on
the
main
hallway.
AA
It
takes
you
back
to
the
gymnasium,
we're
going
to
repurpose
those
spaces
and
I'll
show
you
that
in
a
moment
the
majority
of
the
building
will
remain
and
be
renovated
in
place,
and
then
we're
going
to
expand
it
with
the
exception
of
a
couple
of
key
areas
that
we're
going
to
do
some
selective
demolition.
If
you
look
at
the
media
center
kind
of
at
the
heart
of
the
building,
there
we're
going
to
take
the
piece
to
the
left
off
and
that
will
allow
us
to
connect
the
new
building
more
cleanly
to
the
existing
building.
AA
We
also
have
it
at
the
end
of
that
far
portion
of
the
plan
to
your
right.
There
are
three
classrooms
there
that
are
modular
classrooms
or
temporary
spaces
that
were
put
that
put
in
in
the
1980s.
Those
will
come
away
and
we'll
replace
that
with
more
permanent
construction.
So
if
we
go
to
the
next
slide,
you'll
see
now
the
proposed
plan
we're
closing
off
the
loop
of
that
L,
so
we're
going
to
have
a
continuous
loop
of
circulation
in
the
new
plan.
The
front
entry
is
in
this
plan
is
to
your
left
upper
corner.
AA
You'll,
see
the
red
arrow
arrow
there
you'll
enter
through
a
secure
vestibule
admin
is
in
the
light
green
above
and
then
we've
created
a
Main
Street
corridor.
As
you
walk
down
you'll
pass
by
a
new
gymnasium
and
then
the
existing
gymnasium
is
now
repurposed
as
a
cafeteria,
which
we
were
very
fortunate
that
the
cafeterias
are
the
existing
gym.
Space
was
the
exact
size
we
needed
for
a
cafeteria,
so
we're
able
to
reuse
that
space
and
then
build
a
new
gym
to
the
proper
size
for
the
current
ed
specs.
AA
As
you
continue
around
the
loop
of
the
building,
we're
replacing
those
classrooms,
as
I
mentioned
at
the
end
of
that,
that
far
corridor
on
the
right,
we're
renovating
the
rest
of
the
spaces.
As
we
come
along
the
courtyard
side,
we
have
art
and
the
learning
studios
facing
the
courtyard
which
will
be
it
makes
for
some
nice
outdoor
learning
spaces,
and
then
the
loop
continues
back
around
to
where
the
existing
cafeteria
is
and
that's
going
to
be
repurposed
as
the
new
media
center.
AA
So
we're
able
to
reuse
that
space
well,
we'll
do
some
selective
demolition
to
the
existing
kitchen
to
open
that
up
and
ring
some
natural
light
into
the
space.
But
we
can
reuse
that
nice
volume
of
space
for
a
new
media
center
and
then,
as
you,
return
back
up
near
the
front
entry,
we
have
the
early
childhood
classrooms,
which
will
be
located
near
the
front
of
the
building
for
easy
access
for
the
furthest,
small
children,
and
they
have
nice
nice
views
into
the
courtyard.
AA
The
other
thing
we're
able
to
achieve
what
the
plan
is
all
of
the
major
classroom
spaces
will
have
natural
lights,
certainly
all
the
new
space.
As
well
and
then
we're
able
to
achieve
that
with
the
existing
spaces
that
we're
renovating,
so
we
think
we've
created
a
nice
efficient
plan
here,
worked
very
closely
with
within
Ronal
County
Schools
and
with
the
school
itself
in
the
faculty
and
staff
there
and
have
created
this
proposed
plan.
As
you
see
before
you
today,.
B
Z
The
edge
specs
and
the
feasibility
studies
were
all
present
at
the
same
time
as
the
previous
project.
One
thing
that
I
wanted
to
not
bring
up
previously,
but
all
our
projects
do
involve,
in
addition
to
the
architect,
engineering
staff
and
my
staff.
We
also
include
parents
PT
of
music
from
the
PTA,
but
parents.
We
have
principals
teachers
some
of
the
projects
at
custodial,
and
we
also
have
a
representative
from
MSDE.
We
work
with
on
all
these
projects.
Z
Z
Z
F
Morning
here
you
see
the
existing
plan
towards
the
right
of
the
bus
loop.
That
is
the
main
entrance
for
the
site,
the
way
they
have
the
signage
up,
so
everyone
is
entering
down
there,
whether
it
be
a
bus
or
a
parent,
dropping
off
we're
going
to
work
to
improve
that
in
the
proposed
site
plan
in
exists.
In
addition,
you'll
see
there's
only
64
parking
spaces
for
approximately
90
staffers.
So
again
we
will
improve
that
condition,
because
right
now
they're
street
parking.
F
There
is
no
backstop
in
the
play
fields
which
we
will
provide
and
also
there's
no
existing
stormwater
management,
because
that
wouldn't
have
been
part
of
the
original
design,
and
so
they
have
issues
with
ponding
water.
In
the
play
areas
and
again
those
things
will
be
improved
in
the
new
design.
Moving
over
to
the
next
slide
in
the
proposed
design
you
can
see
the
red
portion
is
our
addition.
F
If
you're
wondering
the
angled
area
on
the
side
is
provides
a
couple
of
different
advantages,
one
of
it
is
being
able
to
reduce
the
amount
of
grading
and
cost
to
the
building
and
also
to
preserve
as
many
of
the
trees
on
site.
There's
a
nice
wooded
buffer
along
that
line
that
we're
trying
to
preserve
so
that
we
don't
have
to
do
more
planting
elsewhere.
F
The
addition
will
also
allow
for
a
loop
circulation
which
you'll
see
in
the
proposed
plan
and
also
provides
the
opportunity
for
a
new
courtyard,
which
again
will
give
great
outdoor
learning
experiences
to
the
students
as
far
as
circulation
to
the
building
you
can
now
see.
There
are
two
separate
entrances
with
rules
both
be
two-way.
The
one
all
the
way
to
the
right
will
be
for
buses
and
for
service
vehicles
and
some
some
of
the
staff
parking
and
it
will
give
them
loop
circulation
and
they
will
be
able
to
exit
to
the
right.
F
On
the
left
hand,
side
will
be
for
the
cars
and
visitors
and
parent
drop-off,
and
we
provided
a
long
lane
for
stacking
of
parents
as
they
come
to
pick
up
and
drop
off
their
children,
so
it
should
help
the
vehicular
congestion
on
site.
Also,
you
will
see
we
have
placeholders
on
the
plan
for
stormwater
management
as
we
work
through
the
process
during
the
next
phase,
and
you
can
see
that
there
are
properly
sized
play
fields
with
a
softball
field
and
play
areas
both
mulched
and
paved
from
the
students.
F
Moving
on
to
the
next
slide.
Here
is
your
existing
plan.
Much
like
the
last
school.
It
is
an
l-shaped
design.
The
main
entrance
is
down
in
the
bottom
left-hand
corner
where
there's
a
red
arrow.
The
entrance
is
tucked
back.
The
main
office
has
limited
visibility
as
they're
trying
to
keep
an
eye
on
the
front
of
the
building.
It
should
be
mentioned.
This
school
was
designed
in
1962
to
those
standards
and
has
not
had
any
major
renovations
in
the
time
period.
F
So
many
things
like
the
main
office,
the
health
suite
they're,
both
undersized
the
multi-purpose
room,
is
both
a
cafeteria
and
a
stage
I
mean
in
a
gymnasium.
The
toilet
rooms
would
not
a
DEA
compliant
and
there
are
multiple
portables
that
have
been
placed
on
site
to
accommodate
the
population
that
has
grown.
F
The
both
music
programs
and
our
programs
are
under
sized
in
this
original
plan,
as
are
the
the
early
childhood
classrooms.
Moving
on
to
the
next
plan,
the
proposed
plan,
as
you
can
see
here,
we
have
created
the
looped
circulation.
As
was
discussed
earlier.
The
main
entrance
will
be
moved
all
the
way
over
to
the
right
where
the
red
arrow
is
we'll
have
a
small
addition
in
the
pink
area
which
represents
the
admin
area
and
that
will
projecting
them
out
will
give
them
better
visibility
of
the
front,
both
the
bus
and
the
parent
drop-off.
F
You
can
see
the
main
corridor
to
the
right
tapers
with
that
angle
that
we
spoke
of
earlier
and
that
allows
both
the
preservation
of
site
resources
and
reducing
the
budget
for
the
construction
budget.
It
also
tapers
down,
as
you
go
from
the
public
spaces
to
the
private
spaces
in
the
back.
We
have
all
of
the
early-childhood
along
the
back
in
a
row
and
they
will
have
easy
access
to
their
play
areas.
They're
all
shown
in
blue
in
the
bottom
right
hand
corner
there's
space
for
the
before
and
after
care
near
the
drop-off
and
pickup
areas.
F
You
also
have
your
music
in
the
far
right
hand
corner
with
direct
access
to
the
platform.
The
cafeteria
and
gymnasium
are
above
that
they're
separated,
but
we'll
have
an
operable
wall
to
open
up
for
a
larger
space.
The
cafeteria
will
have
natural
daylight
to
the
left,
with
glazing
that
will
open
up
to
the
courtyard
for
nice
views
and
daylight.
There
will
be
a
new
kitchen
and
new
mechanical
spaces
which
will
support
all
the
new
building
systems
that
are
part
of
this
revival,
a
revitalization
project
in
purple.
F
You
can
see
those
are
resource
spaces
and
they
are
allocated
around
the
building
now
for
access
at
all
the
different
grade
levels
there's
also
small
pink
spaces
which
are
toilet
rooms
for
the
staff
that
again
are
allocated
in
all
four
corners.
You
have
eighteen
classrooms,
which
are
shown
in
beige
and
you'll
have
to
Learning
Studios
one
in
the
top
left-hand
corner
and
one
that
has
access
to
the
courtyard.
F
The
art
room
will
be
moved
along
the
horizontal
area
near
the
admin
suite,
and
it
will
have
the
preferred
northern
exposure
and
also
will
have
access
out
to
the
courtyard
for
outdoor
experiences
and
finally,
on
the
bottom.
Left-Hand
corner
is
your
media
center,
which
again
we
will
use
the
existing
multi-purpose
space
to
create
the
media
center,
because
it's
a
nice
volume
and
we
will
add
natural
daylight
to
that
space.
Also.
W
You
and
thank
you
for
presentation,
I,
think
all
three
of
these
plans
are
excellent.
I
appreciate
the
fact
you
noted
the
handicapped
spots
and
you
know-
maybe
it's
just
a
broader
question,
but
is
there
a
formula
that
we
use
so
in
this
case
108
115,
spaces,
7
or
handicapped,
and
this
I
believe
this
is
the
has
the
most
parking
spaces
of
any
of
the
schools.
But
is
there
a
formula
that
we
need
to
adhere
to,
or
is
that
just
a
magic
number
that
we
invent?
It's.
G
K
F
To
preserve
the
existing
structure,
because
we
are
going
to
repurpose,
we
will
revitalize
and
renovate
all
of
the
existing
classrooms.
But
in
trying
to
work
with
the
existing
constraints
of
the
structure,
it
made
logical
sense
to
put
it
in
the
addition
where
they
could
be
properly
sized
and
configured
and
in
the
planning
committee,
with
an
agreement
with
having.
K
K
Z
Goes
back
to
being
the
revitalization
part
of
it,
and
we've
also
had
a
lot
of
discussions
with
instruction
as
to
which
grades
need
it.
The
most
have
kindergarten
in
first
grade
or
pre-k,
also
because
a
large
number
of
blue
rooms
in
this
case,
which
is
because
Tyler
Heights,
does
have
very
large
pre-k
population
as
well
as
kindergarten
currently
pre-k,
is
at
Georgetown
East.
The
intent
is
to
bring
them
back
right.
So
that's
again
part
of
the
reasons
it
looks
a
little
different
than
some
of
the
other
floor
plans.
You
might
see
the.
U
F
Z
We're
waiting
for
Karen
to
come
up,
update
you
real
quickly
on
Richard
Henry
Lee.
Again,
it's
down
the
same
schedule
glidepath
as
all
the
other
projects.
That's
particularly
have
578
is
the
state
rated
capacity
for
it,
although
currently
it
has
479
is
the
SRC.
The
enrollment
is
relatively
high
at
the
moment,
but
we
do
look
at
the
overall
patterns
for
the
school
and
we
do
think
it's
going
to
be
coming
down
a
little
bit
so
should
be
plenty
of
space
for
classes.
AB
Great
good
morning,
everyone
I'm
Kiran
wellness
principal
with
Griffin
Park
architects,
happy
to
be
here.
We
had
a
terrific
somatic
process
collaborative
process
with
both
layering
Lisa's
group
and
the
School
Committee
I.
Think
it's.
What
we
hand
is
here
with
us
today
and
I
just
want
to
thank
him
for
his
dedication
pulling
his
committee
together
on
a
very
challenging
site.
You
can
see
the
site
plan
in
front
of
you.
This
is
the
existing
condition.
AB
It's
less
than
five
acres,
it's
a
very
constrained,
say
really
more
of
an
urban
condition
in
the
center
of
Glen
Burnie,
so
we're
bound
ansan
streets
by
all
four
sides
and
the
existing
condition.
You
can
see
the
main
entrance
right
now.
The
purple
area
on
the
eighth
Street
facade
toward
the
east
end
of
that
building
very
constricted
dimension
there,
bus
drop-off
on
that
side,
very
little
sort
of
front
porch
area
before
you
come
into
the
front
door
carrs-q
and
that
light
blue
line.
AB
You
can
see
they
start
to
wrap
around
two,
if
not
three
sides
of
the
site.
There's
no
dedicated
drop-off
area.
There
that's
off
street
and
we
have
a
very
busy
crossing
guard
on
the
corner
of
8th
Street
and
fourth,
that
you've
been
there
in
the
morning.
That
is
very
busy
trying
to
keep
all
of
this
separated
and
kids
safe
as
they
navigate
the
neighborhood
streets.
So
again
we're
dealing
with
a
very,
very
tight
site
and
trying
to
solve
a
lot
of
issues
in
the
new
plan
and
go
to
the
next
slide
please.
AB
So
this
is
the
proposed
solution
for
the
for
the
new
site
plan.
We
really
want
to
going
to
create
separation,
safe
separation
between
cars
and
buses,
B
Street
to
the
west
side
of
the
building
as
a
wider
Street
section
and
can
allow
safe,
curbside
bus
departure.
There
we're
running
the
main
entrance
down
to
the
south
to
the
Fifth
Avenue
side.
Fifth
Avenue
is
a
rather
busy
street.
We
don't
want
to
bring
cars
on
and
off
of
it
directly,
but
still
maintain
that
parking
lot.
AB
Access
off
the
eighth
Street
side
so
create
more
of
a
gracious
entry
sequence,
a
dedicated
student
drop-off
by
cars,
with
parking
lot
in
front
of
the
building.
So
again,
I
was
important
to
the
committee
to
have
all
students
from
buses
and
cars
come
into
one
common
main
entrance
with
oversight
and
security
and
safety
that
provides
also
the
before
and
after
care,
which
is
not
in
the
current
building
now
and
have
its
own
dedicated
entrance
on
the
same
facade,
making
ingress
and
egress
very
easy
to
them
safe
to
the
building
and
go
inside
the
existing
plan.
AB
Existing
building
is
a
well
people
call
a
split-level
condition.
We
come
in
right
now
off
a
street
facade
of
the
East,
where
the
Green
Arrow
is
into
a
one-story
at-grade
block
that
houses
administration,
media
center
and
a
few
classrooms.
Now,
as
you
move
into
the
classroom
wing
to
the
left
side
of
the
plan,
you
go
down
about
four
feet
to
the
lowest
level
and
up
about
eight
feet
to
the
higher
classroom
level.
AB
These
are
classic
early,
70s,
open
classroom
conditions,
it's
a
very
peculiar
block
size
because
it
doesn't
afford
natural
light
into
the
deepest
parts
of
the
instructional
spaces
right
now,
they're
separated
by
essentially
systems
furniture
partitions.
It's
a
very
compromised
educational
environment
right
now.
So
it's
also
a
very
challenge
and
it's
in
a
tight
12-foot
floor.
The
floor
doesn't
allow
us
to
bring
in
21st
century
building
systems
and
also
again,
fortunately,
doesn't
give
us
access
to
good
daylight
there.
AB
AB
AB
The
existing
cafeteria
multi-purpose
room
on
the
south
east
corner
will
be
repurposed
for
early
childhood,
so
they
have
a
dedicated
cluster
there
with
access
to
their
own
dedicated
play
areas
directly
outdoors.
The
media
center
will
remain
in
its
current
location,
but
will
be
enclosed
right
now.
It's
kind
of
an
open
plan,
condition
that
will
be
enclosed
with
as
much
transparency
as
we
can
provide
with
a
centralized
courtyard
that
provides
daylight
to
a
space
that
currently
doesn't
have
it.
AB
It
was
important
to
the
committee
that
have
grade
level
clusters
that
were
easily
identifiable,
so
we're
providing
clusters
for
early
childhood,
as
I
mentioned,
and
then
1st,
2nd
and
3rd
grades.
All
on
this
first
first
floor,
we
are
maintaining
that
slight
split
in
the
in
the
site
to
minimize
the
earthworks
or
not
having
to
haul
in
a
lot
of
expensive
soil
onto
a
very
constrained
site,
that's
difficult
to
balance,
otherwise,
so
again,
we're
taking
advantage
of
that
grade
change
with
a
few
steps
and
ramps
again
to
mediate
that
great
change.
AB
It's
still
respect
and
mitigate
the
earth
square
condition.
That's
out
there
now
upstairs
we're
going
to
have
the
fourth
and
fifth
grade
clusters
rounding
out
the
rest
implode
program,
and,
incidentally,
the
interior
courtyard
is
going
to
provide
natural
light
to
the
Learning
Labs
in
purple
and
the
art
space
as
well
to
give
them
some
outdoor
space
to
do
their
programs.
So
thank
you
happy
to
taking
questions.
AB
W
You
again
and
I
think
you
hit
the
nail
on
the
head
when
you
said
this
is
just
a
challenging
area
to
navigate
and
what
really
struck
me
was
the
reduction
of
parking
spaces
for
whatever
I.
Don't
know
why
parking
is
on
my
mind
today,
if
I
have
so
fifty
nine
to
forty
one,
so
that
reduction
may
be
an
unfair
question
for
you.
But
you
know
it
was
maybe
a
staff
question,
but
not
your
area
do
we
know
the
number
of
faculty
and
staff
in
that
building
and
are
people
not
going
to
be
able
to
park.
AB
We're
going
to
strive
to
increase
that
number.
If
we
can,
this
is
a
conservative
number
at
best,
whereas
we
know
we're
dealing
with
a
lot
of
compromised
positions
from
fields
and
play
areas
to
to
parking
safety
and
security
was
the
paramount
concern.
So
we
wanted
to
make
sure
we
address
those
issues.
First,
it's
possible
to
increase
that
parking
area.
It
would
just
reduce
the
green
space
available
for
the
kids
for
outdoor
recess,
so
we're
going
to
work
in
the
next
days
to
find
that
balance
and
make
sure
we
can
provide
as
much
parking
as
possible.
AB
C
AB
Right
so
there's
there's
two
areas:
the
on
your
screen.
Now,
the
ones
to
the
bottom
lap
in
the
bottom
right
are
dedicated
for
early
childhood.
Those
would
be
paved
play
and
soft
play
dedicated
for
the
for
the
little
guys.
That's
going
to
be
enclosed
and
accessible
through
a
corridor
from
inside
the
building.
The
soft
play
and
looks
like
this
plan
might
not
have
the
paved
play
area
would
be
access
to
the
corridor
between
the
administration
of
the
gym.
AB
AB
C
AB
Going
to
reduce
that,
like
I
mentioned,
where
we're
looking
to
we
looked
at
leveling
it
all
off
and
that
would
require,
like
I,
said
a
phenomenal
amount
of
Earth
work
that
we
don't
get
a
budget
can
really
take.
So
we're
actually
trying
to
get
a
both/and
condition,
we're
trying
to
respect
the
earth
work.
AB
That's
there
and
also
capitalize
on
the
grade,
change
and
create
some
interesting
spaces
with
perhaps
and
seating
areas
or
gathering
spaces
that,
where
that
great
change
is
taken
up
inside
the
building
and,
of
course,
they'll
be
ramps
for
accessibility
that
happens
near
the
main
entrance
in
a
larger
area
just
to
handle
all
that
circulation
and
movement
of
students
and
in
a
smaller
area
to
the
top
corridor.
There
you
can
see
between
the
existing
and
new
buildings
are
the.
C
K
AB
K
Some
areas
where
you
can't
park
on
the
street
you're
parking
on
a
road
in
a
ditch,
or
something
like
that,
so
at
least
we
haven't
had
advantage
there.
My
other
thought,
you
know
you
talked
about
how
the
community
is
involved
in
these
I
know
that
we
had
representatives
from
the
community
at
Richard,
Henry
Lee,
who
were
very
concerned
about
the
fact
that
we
had
chosen
revitalization
instead
of
a
replacement
school
in
your
work
with
them
did.
K
AB
Great
question
and
I
was
a
major
concern
of
ours
too,
and
I
don't
want
to
speak
for
the
committee.
I
can
tell
you
again:
they've
been
very
engaged,
we've
went
and
took,
we've
actually
held
many
of
our
schematic
design
meetings
in
other
facilities
that
have
been
renovated
or
reimagined,
so
Point
Pleasant,
for
instance,
went
to
Benfield.
The
folks
came
after
work
dedicated
their
evenings
to
these
meetings
to
see
what
the
possibilities
were
in
these
spaces.
We
shared
a
lot
of
images
of
other
projects.
We've
done
along
those
lines
to
help
show
them
the
possibilities.
B
Y
Y
It's
our
intention
to
present
an
overview
of
the
county,
executive's
proposed
capital
and
operating
budgets
for
FY
18.
His
proposals
were
put
forward
on
May
the
first,
as
is
required
by
county
charter
after
consideration
of
the
Board
of
Education
proposed
budget
recommendations,
as
well
as
those
of
other
department
and
component
units
such
as
the
community
college
and
library.
Y
So,
on
the
operating
budget
side,
our
operating
budget
request
for
this
year
that
was
put
forward
by
the
Board
of
Education
was
1
billion,
172
million,
which
represented
a
50
point.
Eight
million
dollar
increase
year
over
year
18
over
17.
The
county
executives
proposal,
including
revenue
from
all
sources,
is
for
an
increase
year.
Over
year,
17
over
18
I
mean
sorry
18
over
17
of
30
2.1
million
dollars.
That's
the
net
increase
on
a
percentage
basis.
The
percentage
increase
that
was
requested
at
the
bottom
of
your
page
was
a
four
point.
Y
Five
three
percent
increase
year
over
year.
The
county
executives
recommendation
is
for
a
two
point:
eight
seven
percent
increase
year
over
year,
so
we'll
begin
with
an
analysis
of
the
revenue
side.
So
that's
the
money
coming
in
from
the
federal
government.
The
budget
that
is
currently
under
consideration
by
the
county
council
would
recognize
the
$200,000
reduction
in
federal
revenue,
largely
due
to
the
wealth
inverse
relationship
with
wealth,
the
state
government.
Similarly,
we
would
recognize
a
2.8
million
dollar
increase
in
government
that
was
downwardly
forecast.
Y
Y
The
Board
of
Education
had
requested
a
fifty
nine
point:
six
million
dollar
increase
from
General
County
government.
The
request
put
forward
directly
inside
of
the
maintenance
of
effort
number
is
twenty
six
point:
million
dollar
year-over-year
increase.
The
maintenance
of
effort
requirement
for
this
upcoming
fiscal
year
would
be
six
point:
two
million
dollars.
The
twenty
six
million
dollars
clearly
exceeds
the
state
mandated
or
state
prescribed
maintenance
of
effort
requirement
by
nineteen
point:
eight
million
dollars.
Y
It
is
the
largest
increase
year-over-year
inside
of
MO
e,
that
we've
we've
been
to
beneficiaries
of,
and
quite
some
time
going
down
to
the
restricted
side
of
the
budget.
We
anticipate
that
we
receive
about
a
two
point:
three
million
dollar
increase
in
restricted
grants
that
was
recognized
with
an
Account
Executives
budget.
Y
Our
internal
service
fund
for
health
care,
our
health
insurance
fund-
would
have
a
decrease
of
fourteen
million
dollars
because
of
again
two
continued
expenses
over
revenues
and
erosion
of
our
health
care
fund
balance
the
food
services
budget
that
we
spoke
about
momentarily
brief
minutes
ago.
In
spite
of
being
able
to
keep
the
meal
prices
equal
and
have
no
fee
increases.
We
anticipate
that
food
nutrition
services
would
have
an
additional
2.5
billion
dollars
in
revenue.
Y
The
school
district
and
the
county
government
approached
the
state
of
Maryland,
with
a
non-recurring
one-time
exclusion
request
that
amassed
to
twenty
two
point:
five
million
dollars
upon
consideration
of
the
case
that
was
put
forward
before
the
state
superintendent
in
a
State
Board.
Ultimately,
they
did
decide
to
grant
us
vac
waiver.
Y
So
that
comes
in
two
different
pieces.
Then
the
first
piece
is
a
15
million
dollar
non-recurring
one-time
fund
infusion
into
the
self
insurance
fund.
Now
remember
last
year,
those
a
10
million
dollar
one-time
exclusion
approved
by
the
state
of
Maryland.
So
this
one's
15,
but
you
have
to
net
out
the
old
10.
Y
So
it's
essentially
5
million
over
last
year
right,
you
have
to
take
out
the
10
last
year,
add
back
into
15
and
then
there's
an
additional
seven
point:
five
million
dollar
again
a
one-time
non-recurring
funding
source
that
would
be
available
to
help
transition
employees
from
the
today's
structure,
in
terms
of
co-pays
of
premiums
split
over
towards
a
new
model
that
we're
continuing
to
negotiate
for.
So
that's
on
the
revenue
going
down
to
the
expense
side.
Y
If
you
recall
super
cannon
or
a
lot
of
his
budget
proposal
is
put
forward
in
December
really
had
essentially
four
thematic
components
to
it.
First
and
foremost,
dr.
lado
placed
a
tremendous
amount
of
effort
and
conversation
around
solving
the
structural
healthcare
balance
and,
as
you
recall,
the
county.
The
superintendent's
recommendation
was
for
twenty
point:
five
million
dollar
inside
of
mo
e
solution
to
the
healthcare
issue
and
I'll
come
back
to
that
shortly.
Y
So
that
recruitment
and
retention
element
is
critical
to
a
school
district,
our
size
and
the
compensation
package
that
we
can
afford
to
those
employees
a
part
and
parcel
to
that
recruitment
effort.
The
third,
the
Matic
area
of
critical
imports
at
a
district
is
the
fact
that
we
are
on
target
to
open
up
a
brand
new
contract
school
in
Annapolis
that
we
run
for
us
by
the
children's
go
the
monarch
school.
That's
slated
to
open
this
September,
and
it
is
in
fact,
on
scheduled,
open,
they've,
been
enrolling
and
subscribing
youngsters.
Y
The
construction
is
going
very
well
and
we
see
no
reason
for
there
to
be
any
impediments
for
that
to
open.
We
also
have
a
contract,
tongue-in-cheek,
a
contract
for
a
contract
school.
We
have
a
contract
with
them
and
we're
obligated
to
pay
the
per
student
allocation
for
pupil
allocation
to
them.
So,
thankfully
that
was
recognized
and
funded
and
then
finally,
the
programmatic
elements.
So
the
programmatic
elements
are
those
that
allow
us
to
continue
to
address.
Y
Enrollment
growth
continue
expand
programs
such
as
our
stem
programs,
our
triple
e
programs,
so
taking
those
four
large
somatic
areas
and
teasing
them
apart
in
the
area
of
health
care,
we
have
both
a
short
and
medium
and
a
long
range
plan.
The
short
is
not
before
you,
but
you
probably
are
aware
that
the
County
Executive
released
a
press
release
not
too
long
ago
that
he
plans
on
introducing
a
fourth-quarter
transfer
bill
this
month.
That
would
be
voted
on
next
month
to
provide
five
million
dollars
to
the
Board
of
Education
in
F.
Y
Why
17
in
the
current
fiscal
year,
to
help
us
close
the
gap
and
be
able
to
pay
our
bills
between
now
and
June?
30Th
five
million
dollars
is
not
mathematically
sufficient.
The
board
recalls
back
in
December,
we
did
a
second
quarter
transfer
of
two
million
dollars,
we're
continuing
to
scrub
the
budgets
at
year-end
close
out
time
to
identify
additional
resources
that
we
can
move
over
to
the
healthcare
fund
at
the
end
of
our
fourth
quarter.
Y
Should
the
board
approve
that
we
would
then
work
with
the
county
executive
to
introduce
legislation
on
our
behalf
to
the
County
Council
and
have
the
County
Council
hopefully
recognize
that
fourth
quarter
transfers
so
those
two
collective
actions,
the
five
million
from
the
county
executives
recommendation
and
then
that
of
the
superintendent,
should
help
us
close
the
gap
and
be
able
to
close
June
30th
the
current
fiscal
year,
fy17
out
on
at
least
a
balanced
footing.
That
does
not
resolve
the
issue
that
falls
upon
us.
Come
July,
1,
the
next
fiscal
year,
FY
18.
Y
So
essentially,
we've
approached
that
as
a
as
a
matter
of
shared
sacrifice,
both
shared
responsibility
and
shared
sacrifice
having
a
viable
and
robust
health
care
plan,
one
that
takes
care
of
our
employees
not
just
maintain
their
obligation
to
our
existing
employee
base.
But
again
on
that
recruitment
retention
side,
it
helps
both
retain
the
employees
we
have
and
continue
to
attract
new
employees
to
the
district.
Y
So
it's
fundamentally
critical
that
we
have
a
solvent
health
care
plan
and
the
health
care
plan
we
have
is
self-funded
so
there's
a
number
of
pieces
in
this
self
in
this
essentially
rescue
package
for
FY
18,
and
that
is
as
follows.
The
county
government
will
be
contributing
five
million
dollars
inside
of
maintenance
of
effort.
A
reference
set
a
little
bit
earlier.
Y
We've
said
many
times
before
that
we'd
get
into
this
issue.
In
one
year
we
didn't
get
out
of
it,
we're
not
going
to
get
out
of
it,
so
we're
making
some
inroads
on
it
in
seventeen.
This
plan
continues
to
make
substantive
and
significant
inroads
into
it
and
FY
18,
and
then
we
will
continue
to
make
further
inroads
into
it
as
we
go
into
FY,
19
and
FY
20,
but
the
goal
was
essentially
to
eradicate
over
the
course
of
years.
The
structural
imbalance
within
the
fund
put
it
on
sound
and
short
footing.
Y
Y
The
recommendation,
or
the
requests
of
the
board
was
to
provide
a
step
increase
for
all
those
eligible
to
provide
a
1%
Cola
to
those
represented
individuals
that
would
not
otherwise
be
eligible
for
a
step
increase.
In
addition
to
that,
there
was
an
amendment
that
the
board
forward
that
would
provide
a
supplemental
step,
increase
a
retroactive
step
increase
to
employees
that
were
enrolled
here,
employees
of
ours
back
in
the
Oh
809
calendar
year
and
still
remained
in
that
role
within
that
bargaining
unit
at
a
minimum
in
the
year
ahead.
Y
The
county
executives
proposal
does
fully
align
with
the
recommendation
that
was
put
forward
by
dr.
lotto
at
his
December
budget
times,
so
it
would
fully
fund
a
mathematical
equivalent
of
a
step
for
all
eligible
employees,
the
1%
for
those
employees
who
are
represented,
but
would
not
essentially
be
eligible
ie,
those
that
are
topped
out.
So
there
is
sufficient
funding
to
do
that.
Obviously,
it's
all
subject
to
negotiations
and
those
negotiations
are
ongoing
with
all
the
represented
groups
as
we
speak.
Y
What
was
not
funded,
however,
was
the
amendment
that
was
put
forward
by
the
board
so
for
that
supplemental
element
that
would
have
been
the
legislative
intent
of
this
body
was
to
target
that
to
those
individuals
that
were
with
us
in
that
ofö
nine
years,
so
that
has
not
been
addressed
through
county
executives.
Recommendation.
Y
The
third
and
a
third
one,
obviously
is
the
monarch
school,
as
well
as
supplemental
funding
to
the
remaining
charter
and
contract
school.
So
the
two
different
pieces
of
that
is,
as
I
said,
we're
going
to
be
opening
up
a
new
monarch
contract
school
in
Annapolis.
They
believe
that
their
enrollment
is
going
to
be
in
the
area
of
580
ish.
Y
Students
are
actively
working
on
that
as
we
speak,
we
do
not
see
any
impediments
from
them
being
able
to
enroll
as
many
students
as
their
contract
allows,
and
we
have
sufficient
funding
in
order
to
be
able
to
handle
the
per
pupil
allocations
for
those
students
and
then
for
our
remaining
schools.
It's
essentially
a
tide
rising
all
boats
at
the
same
level.
Y
The
final
element,
though,
is
that
programmatic
issue-
and
we
have
to
be
you-
know
cognizant
of
the
fact
that
we
do
live
in
an
area
of
constrained
resources.
We
do
live
in
an
era
in
a
fiscally
conservative
County
but,
most
importantly,
we
live
in
a
county
that
requires
all
units
of
government,
all
component
units,
all
departments
of
the
county
government
to
work
together
and
collaboratively
to
best
ensure
the
discounting
continues
to
advance,
continues
to
support
its
citizenry
and
provide
them
the
services
that
they
need.
Y
So,
in
addition
to
Board
of
Education,
we
obviously
have
the
college
and
Library
System
our
sister
component
agencies
and
then
the
myriad
of
departments
within
the
county
government.
The
County
Executive,
as
you
know,
in
formulating
his
budget,
has
to
take
all
of
those
in
concert
and
make
the
best
decisions.
The
best
recommendations,
given
the
fiscal
constraints
of
the
county,
their
ability
to
yield
property
taxes,
for
example
in
our
revenue
cap
environment
and
then
put
forward
a
plan
that
he
feels
best
position
to
the
county
for
the
success.
Y
Improper,
but
I'll
go
back
to
what
I
started
out
with.
There
are
limits
on
that
and
within
those
limits,
given
that
the
focus
and
priorities
on
resolving
the
health
care
crisis
that
we
are
in
and
I'm
using
the
word
crisis,
deliberately
being
able
to
provide
a
compensation
package
for
the
employees
being
able
to
successfully
open
up
our
monarch
contract
school.
Well,
there's
only
so
much,
you
know,
juice,
any
orange
and
something
some
things
are
going
to
have
to
be
sacrificed.
We
all
have
to
make
hard
choices.
Y
Certainly
this
board
does
certainly
the
county
executive
did,
and
certainly
the
County
Council
soon
will
have
to
do
that,
and
so
the
bulk
of
the
differential
between
what
was
funded
and
what
is
recommended
by
the
county
executive
falls
into
those
two
areas:
the
amendment
that
is
previously
referenced,
the
ones
applicable
to
the
2008
employees
and
then
to
the
programmatic
enhancements.
And,
quite
honestly,
you
know
the
focus
is
on
shoring
up
the
footing
that
we're
currently
on
before
we
you
know,
look
to
continue
to
expand
into
new
programmatic
areas,
etc.
Y
So,
as
a
result
of
that,
we
had
asked
for
123
123
positions
across
a
myriad
of
categories,
myriad
of
programmatic
areas.
Four
and
a
half
of
those
positions
are
recommended
for
funding.
Those
are
essentially
positions
that
are
being
transferred
or
reallocated
in
terms
of
its
cost
structure.
They
are
not
new
FTEs.
B
On
behalf
of
the
board
I
just
like
to
thank
you,
Alex
on
your
team,
I
know
it
takes
a
village
to
create
a
budget
and
your
work
also
with
County
Executive
Xu
and
his
budget
officer,
our
education
liaison
and
this
board
and
in
the
County
Council.
The
split
brought
us
here
say:
I
think
it's
a
generous
budget
in
light
of
the
resources
that
we
have
available.
It's
not
perfect,
it
never
is,
and
neither
are
our
personal
budgets
so
I
think
we're
very
happy
with
with
what
we're
seeing
on
the
paper
today,
Thank.
Y
So,
in
the
transitioning
now
to
the
capital
budget,
the
board
of
education
is
FY,
approved,
FY
18,
recommended
budget.
We
were
asking
for
twenty
two
hundred
forty
point:
six
million
dollars
in
aggregate
again,
that's
from
all
sources.
The
county
executive's
recommendation
for
FY
2018
is
one
hundred
ninety
five
point:
three
million
so
hundred
twenty.
Ninety
five
point:
three
million
from
all
sources
versus
the
two
hundred
and
forty
point:
six
million
dollar
request,
but
I
need
to
put
that
into
context.
Y
I
think
some
folks
may
go
and
take
a
look
at
last
year's
budget,
where
we
asked
for
two
hundred
forty
three
point:
six
million
dollars
that
was
approved
and
say
well,
two
hundred
forty
point:
six
million
dollars
seems
a
lot
higher
than
one
hundred
ninety
five
point:
three
million
dollars,
which
is
in
fact
the
recommendation
this
year,
but
there's
a
very
important
nuance.
Last
year's
budget
was
very
atypical
because
we
asked
for
ninety
four
point:
we
have
four
appropriation
Authority
for
ninety
four
point:
1
million
dollars
by
a
federal
grant.
Y
That
was
in
support
of
a
grant
proposal
that
we
still
have
not
officially
heard
back
about
for
meet
high
school,
so
to
be
fair
year
and
year.
To
put
this
in
context
at
a
high
level,
you
essentially
have
to
back
out
that
federal
grant
backing
out
that
federal
grant
last
year,
then
so
you
can
compare
apples
to
apples.
The
approved
budget
CIP
budget
from
last
year
was
a
hundred
and
forty
nine
point.
Five
million
dollars.
Y
Y
We
have
a
couple
one
other
issue
that
the
board
needs
to
be
aware
of
is
that
we
are
not
as
of
yet
we've
not
yet
been
provided,
nor
have
the
other
23
L
EAS,
with
the
final
determination
as
to
the
state
budget,
and
the
board
remembers
that
here
in
the
state
of
Maryland.
We
are
fortunate
in
that
the
state
both
the
state
of
Maryland
and
the
local
county
governments
contribute
a
portion
towards
the
public
school
construction
program
efforts.
The
state
has
not
yet
finalized
their
numbers,
they've
not
yet
been
transmitted
to
the
counties
they
have.
Y
They
could
have
as
late
as
late
as
June
the
first
to
finalize
that
so
we're
awaiting
that.
Once
we're
made
aware
of
that,
we
certainly
will
transmit
that
information
expeditiously
both
to
the
board
and
the
council,
with
that,
as
a
caveat,
we'll
go
back
to
an
overview
of
the
budget,
so
we
have
always
called
the
capital
budget.
This
one-page
summary
the
red
white
and
blue
sheet
and
the
items
banded
in
a
white
bar
essentially
is
an
exact
mathematical
match.
Y
So
we
we
asked
for
$1
and
we
got
$8
items
that
there
was
a
disconnect,
so
we
asked
for
one
number,
but
the
recommendation
is
for
a
different
value.
Sometimes
the
values
less.
Sometimes
the
value
could
be
more
we've
historically
banded
in
a
blue
collared
fund
and
then
finally,
those
items
that
we
requested
on
behalf
of
the
board
that
were
simply
not
funded
at
all
were
funded
as
a
zero
value
have
been
banded
in
red,
well,
you'll
notice,
in
the
exhibit
that
was
provided
to
the
board
members.
Y
There
is
no
red
font
in
the
FY
18.
So,
let's
begin
there,
there
are
no
items
that
are
not
funded
at
all.
You'll
see
that
a
tremendous
amount
of
the
project's
banded
in
the
white
font
are
fully
funded,
so
that
leaves
then
those
that
are
in
blue,
where
there
is
a
stay
differential
to
some
extent
from
the
request
and
the
actual
value
staff
and
a
superintendent
proper
to
following
this
budget
does
in
fact
support
our
capital
program.
Y
Again,
they
are
all
fully
funded.
We
are
not
altering
the
schedule
on
those
so,
as
in
capstone
I
think
it
is
a
extremely
generous
budget.
I
will
say
some
of
that
is
by
great
fortune
attributable
to
the
legislation
that
the
county
executive
put
forward
and
the
County
Council
ultimately
agreed
to
to
extend
the
maturity
of
the
bonds
applicable
to
schools,
because
we're
really
building
40
45
50
year
assets
and
so
by
expanding
the
bond
duration.
Y
It
created
bond
capacity,
additional
bonding
capacity
for
schools,
so
the
increased
level
of
effort
is
directly
correlated
to
that
initiative
that
the
county
government
put
forward.
We
are
now
seeing
the
fruits
and
we're
going
to
continue
to
see
the
the
general
obligation
bond
fruits
of
that
initiative
that
the
county
government
put
forward
in
the
years
ahead
with
that
I
believe
that
concludes
our
presentation
and
will
entertain
any
questions.
Mrs.
B
K
K
X
Thank
you
very
much
for
that
presentation.
I
just
want
to
understand
something
for
the
three
schools
that
we
heard
the
presentations
on
today.
If
I'm
reading
this
correctly,
it
looks
like
the
deltas
between
the
budget
amount
requested
and
the
budget
amount
proposed
range
between
11
and
13
million
dollars
for
each
school.
So
how
is
it
possible
that
those
projects
can
proceed
as
planned,
so.
Y
Y
We
would
receive
the
construction
dollars
to
break
ground,
so
we
will
continue
with
our
design,
permitting
bidding
and
engineering
activities
in
the
current
year
to
get
everything
lined
up
that
come
July
1
of
next
fiscal
year.
If
we
receive
the
appropriation
authority
and
approvals
from
the
state
in
the
county
will
break
ground
at
that
time,
should
we
be
able
to
break
ground
at
that
time?
That
does
not
jeopardize
the
opening
of
the
school
the
end
date.
Our
target
opening
date
of
the
school
will
remain
as
we
have
intended
it
to
be.
The.
X
Y
Such
a
big
difference
sure
that
the
gap
essentially
is
with
say,
for
example,
we
were
in
a
position
to
be
able
to
bid
the
projects
in
May,
which
means
we
could
bring
contract
Awards
in
my
hypothetical
construct.
We
could
bid
the
project
in
May,
bring
the
contract
awards
to
you
in
June.
We
would
have
the
appropriation
Authority
to
then
execute
those
contracts
in
the
month
of
June
for
a
July
start.
Y
Without
that
appropriation
Authority,
we
would
bring
the
contracts
to
you
in
the
first
meeting
of
July
instead
of
the
last
meeting
in
June
in
FY
19.
So
you
know
there
is
a
very
small
gap
potential
there,
but
over
the
course
of
a
three
year
project.
You
know
you
can
very
easily
pick
up
make
up
two
weeks,
so
we
don't
feel
that
that
this
jeopardizes.
Y
U
Y
C
I'm
very
pleased
with
most
of
both
of
these
budgets
I
think
they
reflect
the
best
way
for
the
different
County
County
entity
entities,
including
ourselves
of
working
together.
I
think
we
all
understand
that
our
first
priority
is
to
the
children
and
that
the
school
system
drives
so
many
things
in
the
county,
whether
jobs
and
housing
prices
and
all
that,
so
it
behooves
us
all
to
work
together
and
again.
C
I
want
to
commend
you
and
your
staff
and
doctor
our
lotto
and
County
Executive,
Shu
and
John
Hammond,
and
the
council,
who
all
worked
together
to
draft
this
first,
one
because
I
think
it
really
reflects
the
priorities
of
what
we
need
and
and
again
exemplifies
how
we
all
work
together
because
we're
all
in
for
the
same
goals.
But
thank
you
mrs.
R
Just
want
to
echo
those
comments
and
say:
I've
been
on
the
board.
A
long
time
looks
like
it's
going
to
be
a
lot
longer,
but
it's
been
planned.
I
can't
get
rid
of
me,
but
in
my
history
experience,
I
I
believe
this
is
the
most
collaborative
I
want
to
thank
Emily
Brandenburg
I
want
to
thank
County,
Executive
Shu
I
want
to
thank
our
superintendent.
Our
board
members
we
have
all
this
has
been
collaborative.
I,
certainly
want
to
thank
Alex
and
his
team.
It's
it's
been
a
collaborative
effort,
as
Stacey
said.
R
R
I
really
think
this
is
a
both
of
these
budgets
are:
are
good
budgets,
I,
think,
they're,
collaborative
and
I
think
it's
been
a
result
of
a
lot
of
hard
work
and
effort
on
everyone's
part
and
I
want
to
thank
the
collaborative
efforts
of
our
of
our
teachers,
unions
and
our
mr.
Binford.
Thank
you,
you've
been
very
collaborative
and
it's
all
good.
Thank
you.
B
Y
It's
a
wonderful
opportunity
for
the
citizenry
to
come
out
and
be
able
to
learn
more
about
the
budget
and
advocate
for
those
things.
Did
they
care
deeply
about
be
at
the
school
district
or
any
other
concern
or
priority?
They
have
the
County
Council
is
on
a
track
as
a
published
calendar
to
has
them
adopting
the
budget
on
the
14th
of
June,
which
is
one
day
ahead
of
their
mandated
June
15th
completion
date.
We
will
then
bring
the
results
of
that.
Y
The
final
budget
that
will
be
adopted
by
ordinance
essentially
becomes
the
law
of
the
County
effective,
July
1,
we'll
bring
that
back
to
this
board
at
their
second
meeting
of
June,
so
that
the
board
can
undertake
those
actions
required
to
reconcile
the
differential.
The
final
differentials
between
the
adopted
appropriation
Authority
budget
and
the
requests
that
the
board
had
remitted
back
in
February.
B
I
want
to
echo
that
and
just
encourage
our
citizens
to
make
an
effort
to
go
to
the
public
hearing
Monday
night
at
North,
County,
High
or
Thursday
at
Merrill
hall.
The
county
council
can
rubber
stamp
this
budget.
They
can
edit
it
which
could
mean
adding
money
to
it,
adding
money
to
some
items
on
our
budget
or
taking
things
away.
B
C
Y
M
M
We
were
able
to
provide
30
staff
members
in
our
system,
training
to
be
trainers
of
trainers,
and
so,
as
we
looked
at
that
30,
we
looked
at
individuals
from
across
the
system,
so
individuals
from
office
of
school
performance
for
some
curriculum
instruction,
advanced
studies
and
programming,
some
students
of
both
services,
human
resources,
the
the
training
is
designed
to
teach
us
from
protocols
to
have
the
conversations
regarding
equity,
race
and
diversity,
and
so
oftentimes.
We
try
to
have
those
conversations.
M
M
O
M
Y
B
You
is
there
any
public
comment
on
this
item.
All
right.
That
concludes
the
public

of
our
meeting.
