a
change
under

2020

This

Miss
antwine.
C
Good
good
evening,
everyone
I
wanted
to
first
start
out
by
congratulating
the
Mead
high
school
chorus
under
mr.
Bernabe,
a
first-time
choral
instructor.
He
did
a
fabulous
job
last
night
I
enjoyed
it
I
think
the
rest
of
the
audience
did
as
well,
because
when
it
was
over,
we
were
all
waiting
on
an
encore.
I
want
to
move
on
to
congratulate
mr.
mo
GABA
a
lyndale
middle
school
student
who
made
history.
In
the
last
two
weeks.
C
C
So
then,
I
move
on
to
my
attire
tonight.
I
really
try
hard
normally
to
be
very
business
suitable,
but
tonight
I
am
in
my
dinner
I'm
in
a
t-shirt
and
I
am
bedazzled
for
specific
reasons.
First,
my
bedazzler,
my
earrings,
my
headgear,
is
to
bring
awareness
that
this
is
prom
season
and
I
want
to
encourage
our
entire
communities
to
get
behind
our
students.
C
Allow
them
this
opportunity
for
safe
fun
and
engagement,
many
of
whom
will
be
doing
this
for
the
first
and
last
time,
not
necessarily
prom,
but
an
occasional
as
formal
as
prom
support
them.
I
commend
those
PT
essays
and
those
other
business
leaders
and
community
leaders
who
have
who
are
already
doing
it.
The
parents
who
are
planning
prom,
breakfast
and
other
things
as
Bob
would
say:
Bravo
Zulu
to
you
for
that.
I
also
am
wearing
this
as
a
reminder
that
we
are
at
the
end
of
the
school
year
and
I'm
thinking.
C
C
Anyone
you
know
of
that
has
served
past
present.
Anybody
planning
to
take
the
time
to
thank
them
for
their
sacrifice
and
their
service
and
in
appreciation.
I
also
want
to
say
that
next
week
is
teacher
appreciation
month
so
for
their
sacrifice
in
their
service.
I
encourage
you
to
thank
your
teachers.
C
C
This
this
t-shirt
is
to
bring
awareness
to
mental
health
and
the
strength
that
we
all
can't
can
you
know,
but
mental
health
is
very
serious
and
it
is
just
as
serious
as
our
physical
health.
It
is
important
that
we
help
our
students
to
understand
that
this
is
nothing
to
play
with
and
that
they
are
the
first
course
of
action
when
it
comes
to
their
personal
mental
health,
but
they
always
have
us
for
that
support.
So
thank
you
very
much
for
the
time.
Thanks.
C
To
our
new
teacher
of
the
year,
congratulations:
the
program
that
we
attended
last
week
highlighted
some
amazing
opportunities
for
all
of
our
students
to
share
about
what
they
felt
about
theirs,
their
teachers.
All
of
us
were
there,
we
laughed,
we
cried,
but
we
got
the
message
and
miss
ballstein.
Congratulations!
Well
deserved!
God
bless
you
and
I
know.
You'll
do
well.
In
the
coming
year.
B
Thank
you
and
thank
you
for
your
service
to
YouTube.
The
point
was
hurt.
I
also
attended
the
excellence
in
education,
the
words
dinner
with
the
rest
of
my
colleagues
and
it
was
fabulous,
I
loved
hearing
what
the
children
had
to
say
and
how
they
framed
it,
and
everything
about
that
evening
was
delightful
and
I'm,
really
very,
very
proud
of
our
of
the
educators
in
the
room.
But
really
all
of
our
educators
are
just
fabulous
and
wonderful
humans
who
do
a
great
deal
for
our
students.
B
Every
day,
I
had
the
opportunity
to
visit
the
Ruth
Parker
Easton
school
with
dr.
lotto
and
mrs.
Hummer
back
on
April
23rd.
It
was
my
very
first
visit
to
a
special-needs
school
and
I
loved
every
second
of
it,
and
it
was.
It
was
great
to
see
those
wonderful
educators
in
action
and
I
particularly
enjoyed
seeing
their
therapy
pool.
That
was
the
highlight,
although
the
whole
thing
was
was
fantastic.
So
thank
you
for
that
opportunity.
Dr.
lotto
and
I
look
forward
to
more
school
visits
because
I
really
love
them
on
April
24th.
B
A
few
of
us
were
recognized
at
the
leadership
and
Arundel
at
a
leadership.
An
Arundel
event,
and
that
was
fabulous
and
I'm.
It
was
honored
to
be
recognized
amongst
an
enormous
amount
of
local
community
leaders.
So
thank
you
for
that
and
second
year
in
a
row
going
to
the
Severna
Park
High
School
Earth
Day
Festival,
which
I
loved
I,
saw
some
of
the
audience
members
there
too,
which
was
nice
and
it's
just
a
great
event.
I
take
my
daughter.
She
loves
it.
We
bring
friends,
it's
a
it's
just
a
good
day,
so
well
done.
B
E
Thank
you.
Certainly
one
of
the
highlights
of
my
last
couple
weeks
was
attending
the
excellence
in
education
awards.
Dinner.
I
was
delighted
that
Miss
Teresa
bill,
Stein
I,
believe
sorry,
I
didn't
catch
the
pronunciation,
but
she
she
seems
like
a
fabulous
teacher.
We
got.
It
was
such
a
wonderful
event
to
hear
students
give
tribute
to
their
teachers.
There
were
videos
and
played
throughout
the
evening,
and
it
was
very,
very
touching
and
miss
bill.
E
E
First
I
went
and
I
was
able
to
tour
the
science
exhibits
the
the
science
projects
that
were
submitted
by
all
these
schools.
It
was
a
cafeteria
just
busting
at
the
seams
with
science
projects,
and
it's
I
was
very
moved
that
so
many
students
wanted
to
spend
their
Saturday
going
there
and
showing
their
work.
They
were
all
very
proud.
They
were
all
very
excited
to
share
their
work,
and,
while
this
was
taking
place
in
another
area
of
the
school,
I
was
taken
around
and
able
to
see
this
science
challenge.
E
That
was
going
on
and
students
formed
teams
and
they
were
given
various
challenges
and
they
would
go
around
and
and
complete
each
of
these
challenges.
So
it
was
a
competition.
It
was
a
very,
very
cool
thing
to
see
and
watching
these
kids
work
through
the
process
of
trying
to
solve
a
problem.
And
finally,
I'd
I
want
to
thank
leadership.
Anna
Rundle
for
recognizing
new
leaders,
I
felt
like
I,
was
in
I
was
humbled
to
be
in
such
great
company
and
I.
Don't
take
there
recognition
lightly
and
I
intend
to
make
you
proud.
F
Yes,
the
excellence
in
education
event,
as
everyone
said,
was
wonderful.
It's
great
to
see
our
teachers
are
honored,
but
I
do
not
want
to
neglect
the
opportunity
to
shout
out
to
the
great
team
from
a
ACPs
who
put
it
on
Caroline,
mccurdy
and
mineka
monk,
and
all
the
team
from
print
and
Design
and
the
visual
people.
F
They
did
an
amazing
job
with
the
videos
and
everything
about
the
event
and
a
very
special
shout
out
to
the
Marriott
W
WI
Marriott,
who
provided
a
fabulous
location
and
really
set
that
set
the
tone
in
the
atmosphere
for
a
great
evening.
So
we're
really
happy
to
be
partnering
with
the
Marriott
as
well.
So
it
all
the
whole
team
together
created
a
wonderful
night
to
honor
our
teachers.
F
I
was
able
to
go
to
Guys
and
Dolls
at
Brooklyn
Park
middle
school
last
week,
and
it
was
fabulous
especially
when
you
considered
that
I
don't
think
the
middle
schoolers
really
understood
the
gambling
that
goes
on
in
Guys
and
Dolls,
so
that
might
have
been
an
education
for
them,
but
it's
all
in
good
fun,
but
it
was.
It
was
great.
They
did
a
wonderful
job.
F
Last
week,
I
was
able
to
go
visit,
our
new
global
citizen,
global
community
citizenship
class
at
a
Rendell,
High
School,
and
it
just
so
happened
that
the
day
I
was
able
to
go.
They
were
also
doing
training
there
for
some
of
our
new
teachers
for
the
schools
that
it
will
be
expanding
to
in
the
fall.
So
I
got
to
view
a
little
bit
of
their
training
that
was
going
on
and
then
I
visited
three
classrooms
and
saw
the
students
they
were
all
designing
their
ideal
communities.
F
F
We
talked
about
the
importance
of
relationships
with
our
adults,
but
also
with
our
kids
bill
that
community
within
the
school
so
that
they
feel
people
they're
connected
with
outside
of
just
their
little
group
or
their
little
sports
team
or
whatever
they
got
to
know
a
great.
They
have
already
expanded
that
in
ninth
grade
that
will
carry
them
all
the
way
through
and
I.
Think
that's
going
to
be
one
of
the
great
benefits
we'll
see
over
time
with
this
class,
so
I'm
very
excited
about
it.
G
G
G
This
provided
a
unique
opportunity
for
students
who
may
not
have
been
able
to
get
that
whole
visual
thing
going
on
with
the
presentation
and
stuff,
and
they
were
able
to
explore
different
aspects
of
their
science
and
innovation
skills
so
being
able
to
demonstrate
on
both
fronts.
I
think
was
very
important
and
I
think
it
also
gave
some
opportunities,
because
some
of
these
projects
can
be
intimidating.
I,
remember
going
through
these
with
my
kids
in
elementary
school,
because
these
are
elementary
school,
kids
and
they're.
Just
absolutely
amazing.
G
They
have
diet,
they
have
what
they
have
done
in
way
of
thinking
outside
of
the
box.
I
remember
years
ago,
when
my
kids
were
little
and
it
was
all
everything
was
just
Chesapeake
Bay
and
science,
and
it
was
a
very
straightforward
thing
and
I've
seen
some
evolution
I
had
being
able
to
see
the
best
of
the
best,
as
these
are
the
folks
that
are
representing
all
four
county
wide
and
they're,
taking
it
to
the
next
level
and
I
think
that
speaks
droves
to
our
curriculum,
as
curriculum
has
started.
G
G
An
outstanding
job
I
had
a
chance
to
talent
to
talk
with
some
of
our
stem
staff
that
I
don't
normally
interface
with
that
aren't
in
my
district,
and
they
are
doing
such
a
stellar
job
and
we
were
on
the
cutting
edge
of
that
inclusion
and
diversity,
even
in
that
I
mean
in
those
isolated
categories.
So
I'm
very
proud
of
some
of
the
things
that
we're
doing
I
also
had
an
opportunity
to
visit
our
our
construction
site
with
the
county
with
the
superintendent
and
some
of
the
community
leaders
at
Crofton,
high
school
and
first
off.
G
Northeast
prior
to
that
and
seeing
what
we
we
have
in
front
of
us,
I
am
very,
very
excited
and
I
know.
The
residents
of
district
seven
are
also
equally
excited,
as
well
as
some
of
nacelles
district
residents,
because
we
will
be
sharing
some
in
that
school,
so
I'm,
looking
forward
to
seeing
it
next
year
and
giving
it
its
blessings
with
the
ribbon-cutting,
so
I
also
attended.
Of
course,
the
Teacher
of
the
Year
and
I
just
want
to
do
a
shout
out
to
all
the
other
recipients
to
our
teacher
the
year.
G
Obviously,
is
the
big
accolade
there,
but
they
are.
We
also
recognize
the
people
who
support
us
in
the
business
community
and
I
just
wanted
to
do
an
additional
shot,
because
there
there
there
that
help
and
that
connection
and
tether
to
the
community
that
gives
our
teachers
as
opportunities
and
just
seeing
so
much
excellence
in
one
room.
It
was
amazing
and
overwhelming.
So
thank
you
to
the
staff
also
for
an
outstanding
job
and
a
great
time.
H
It
was
just
a
wonderful
experience
and,
as
many
of
my
colleagues
said,
I
also
had
the
opportunity
to
go
to
the
excellence
in
education
dinner
where
we
awarded
our
Teacher
of
the
Year
and
as
mr.
Cadell
said.
It
was
also
amazing
to
see
that
we
recognize
our
business
partners,
because
not
only
do
they
help
our
schools
and
provide
resources,
but
a
lot
of
them
that
were
rewarded.
H
Experience
and
then
another
thing
I
had
the
opportunity
to
go
to
was
this
Monday
was
the
scholarship
for
scholars
words
in
our,
and
it
was
at
the
Chesapeake
Arts
Center
and
quite
a
few
Anne
Arundel
County
students
got
extremely
generous
scholarships
for
college
next
year,
just
listening
to
the
excellence
of
our
students,
what
they
pursue
their
passions
from
building
robots
to
Navajo
pottery
to
blood
drives
just
everything
that
they
do
for
their
community.
Taking
up
all
these
opportunities,
it
was
really
really
amazing
and
I
know.
A
160,000
dollars
worth
of
scholarships
were
given
out
over
that
90
minute
period
and
that's
just
a
testament
to
the
excellent
work
of
our
students
and
certainly
the
teachers
supporting
them,
and
the
last
comment
I
would
just
like
to
make
I
think
everyone
said
everything
but
excellence
in
education
dinner.
This
was
the
first
year
that
the
school
system
assumed
100%
of
the
responsibility
for
the
dinner
and
as
I
shared
with
dr.
A
our
lato
I
I
thought
that
was
such
a
seamless
transition
even
to
the
point
that
I
did
not
realize
there
was
a
transition
and
and
I
would
say
that
not
only
did
it
transition
fully
to
the
school
system,
but
it
was
the
best
dinner
that
I've
been
to
in
four
years
and
and
the
reason
why
and
it's
not
to
discount
dinners
from
the
past,
but
the
student
videos
and
the
student,
testimonials
I
think
really,
as
others
have
said
tonight,
was
the
highlight.
So
so.
Thank
you
for
that.
A
I
Thank
You,
mr.
president,
there's
two
things
that
I
wanted
to
remind
this
board
of
or
or
inform
the
public
of.
If
they
did
not
know
just
we've
got
two
administrators
really
unsung
heroes
here
in
the
county
that
have
worked
with
us
for
a
number
of
years
that
were
that
had
been
recently
recognized
at
the
state
and
area
level.
One
is
miss
Deb,
Kramer
who's.
Our
current
coordinator
of
Career
and
Technology
education
CTE.
I
She
was
recognized
last
week
in
Baltimore
by
the
Maryland
State
Department
of
Education.
If
their
CTE
Awards
of
Excellence
dinner,
as
and
for
a
Distinguished
Service
Award
she's,
been
with
us
for
27
years,
we'll
be
retiring
at
the
end
of
this
year.
She
will
be
sorely
missed,
we're
not
quite
sure
how
to
replace
her,
but
she
is
fabulous
and-
and
it
was
a
well
deserved
and
well
recognized,
work
that
she's
done
over
the
past
27
years
in
the
world
of
CTE.
I
So
I
wanted
to
mention
that
the
next
was-
and
you
may
have
seen
it
in
the
Washington
Post
Washington
Post
recently
announced
both
their
Teacher
of
the
Year
and
the
principal
of
the
year
from
the
wash
in
the
DC
metro
area
and
Nelson
Horan
who's.
Currently,
our
principal
of
evening
high
schools,
as
well
as
Twilight
schools
and
summer
schools,
was
awarded
and
recognized
as
the
Washington
Post
principal
of
the
year.
He
has
been
operating
our
evening
high
school
Twilight
programs
since
2004
and
Nelson
Wright
this
year
is
50
years
with
Anne
Arundel
County
Public
Schools.
I
He
started
as
a
teacher
I
believe
that
Severna
Park
middle
school,
a
science
teacher
he
started
his
career
but
fifty
years
ago,
and
going
strong,
he's
incredibly
dedicated
in
the
world
of
alternative
ed
and
providing
opportunities
for
our
students
beyond
the
regular
classroom
walls
and
beyond
our
regular
schools
and
he's
getting
more
students
across
the
stage
and
earning
diplomas
and
into
the
work
world,
and
he
just
as
dedicated,
and
we
are
a
matter
six
evening-
high
school
sites
and
we're
very
proud
of
Nelson.
So
I
wanted
to
say
thank
you
to
Nelson.
I
A
E
Was
wonderful,
thank
you
for
those
updates.
I
have
a
couple
questions
because
at
our
last
board
meeting
we
we
completed
the
process
of
redistricting
and
had
a
number
of
families
reach
out
to
me
with
concerns
and
questions.
My
understanding
is
in
order
for
this
for
us
to
put
on
the
capital
improvement
plan
the
arundel
middle
school
improvements.
The
first
step
would
be
to
get
cost
estimates.
E
I
Understanding
is
well.
Certainly,
our
team
has
been
working
with
the
county
team.
We
don't
purchase
property,
that's
something
that
County
has
to
do,
and
then
they
deed
it
to
us
when
we
are
purchasing
land
for
for
a
school,
and
so
they
have
been
in
consultation
with
the
developers
for
the
county.
My.
I
J
Thank
You
mr.
president,
I
think
we
already
missed
the
superintendent
I
think
out
of
his
humbleness
didn't
quite
mention
this,
but
for
those
of
you
that
get
the
Capitol
Gazette,
quoting
from
the
Capitol
today
for
yesterday.
Excuse
me
for
the
second

Dustin

funny

This
tragic
event
is
a
reminder
that
mental
health
is
still
a
very
serious
problem
within
our
County.
K
Learned

identify
signs
of
depression
and
suicide

were
instructed
on
how
to
direct
their
peers

They

to
students
from
crass

had
the
amazing
opportunity
to
be
a
part
of
the
ACPs
Student

For
the
past,
several
meetings
Kraus
has
discussed
ideas
for
suggested,
suggested
revisions
regarding
the
dress
code
and
hate
symbols.
We

K
Best

luck
to
the
nominees
tonight
marks
a
milestone
in
my
educational
journey.
This
is
my
final
board
report
as
Secretary
of
Education.
For
Kraske
and
on
May
29th
I
will
become
an
alumni
of
Anne
Arundel
County
Public
Schools
I'm,
happy
to
say
that
I've
received
nothing
but
support
from
every
staff
member
I
have
encountered
over
the
past
13
years.
The
school
system
has
given
me
everything
I
need
and
more
to
be
able
to
succeed
in
my
post-secondary
education.
I
am
forever
grateful.
This
past
year,
in
particular,
has
been
incredibly
eye-opening.
K
Working
with
Kraus
has
helped
me
learn
extensively
about
the
school
system
that
I've
spent
my
entire
life
in
and
providing
me
with
a
platform
to
safely
express
my
concerns.
Throughout
my
term,
I
have
advocated
for
the
reduction
of
class
sizes
and
more
student
involvement
from
my
cluster
I've
had
the
opportunity
to
sit
down
with
the
county
executives
transition
team
attend
the
Martin
Luther
King
breakfast
help
inform
as
well
as
interact
with
the
student
body
around
the
county
through
G
A's
and
much
more.
K
We
have
made
so
many
memories
that
I
cannot
possibly
share
them
all,
but
I
would
like
to
share
one
with
you
now
on
December
12th
cross
held
a
wellness
and
school
safety,
General
Assembly
at
Arundel,
High
School.
At
the
conclusion
of
this
event,
as
we
were
packing
up,
I
decided
to
log
in
to
one
of
the
many
college
portals
that
I
have
and
was
excited
to
find
an
offer
from
my
dream:
school
Penn,
State
University.
This
is
in,
or
this
is
sure
to
remain
one
of
the
best
memories.
K
I
have
and
I
couldn't
have
asked
for
a
better
group
with
which
to
celebrate
with
that
being
said,
I
should
thank
you.
Thank
you
to
Miss,
pelegrin
and
all
of
crass
for
welcoming
me
with
open
arms
and
teaching
me
all
I
know.
Thank
you
to
my
parents
for
always
supporting
and
loving
me.
Thank
you
to
mr.
K
Williams
and
the
staff
of
North
East
High
School
for
being
invested
in
all
I,
do
and
preparing
me
for
the
world
ahead,
and
thank
you
to
the
students
for
believing
me
for
believing
in
my
ability
to
represent
you
and
thank
you
in
Toronto,
County.
Board
of
Education
for
giving
the
students
a
platform
to
speak
and
for
me
the
incredible
opportunity
to
speak
before
you.
As
always,
it
has
been
a
pleasure
to
give
you
a
quick
update
about
what's
happening
in
kresk.
Thank
you.
A
Savannah
the
what
the
lights
are
lighting
up
so
I
think
you're
going
to
hear
some.
Some
comments
thanking
you
above
and
you
just
made
a
comment
about
you
being
taught
and
thanking
the
people.
Who've
taught
you,
but
thank
you
for
teaching
us
over
this
last
year.
I.
Remember
your
first
meeting.
You
were
hobbling
up
on
crutches,
it
seems
just
like.
Yesterday
it
was
Sydney
butcher,
now
judge
butcher.
A
You
know
asking
you
who
won
and
now
he's
a
judge,
but
you
have
had
an
amazing
year
and
you
know
I
look
forward
to
seeing
you
northeaster
graduation
is
on
my
list
this
year,
so
I
will
be
there
and
look
forward
to
seeing
you
there
and
a
cap
and
gown.
But
you
know
above
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you
for
being
the
cras
voice
as
a
classical
you
make
me
proud
and
I
look
forward
to
seeing
you
again
one
day
continuing
to
do
great
great
things.
So
thank
you
for
all
that
you've
done.
H
C
C
So
then
I
was
one
of
the
first
students
to
congratulate
me
when
I
was
elected
to
the
Board
of
Education.
I
won't
cry
either,
but
that
meant
a
lot
coming
from
the
students,
understanding
the
influence
that
I
may
have
over
your
next
steps.
You
will
humble
enough
to
come
to
me
and
welcome
me
to
the
board
I've
watched
you
Savannah,
since,
since
December
you
are
graceful,
you
are
highly
intelligent.
D
C
G
L
G
So
you've
definitely
set
a
benchmark
for
success
for
your
successors
for
many
years
to
come,
but
I
actually
hit
my
button
because
that's
my
husband
and
I
met
at
Penn
State.
So
when
you
said
that
I
got
real
excited
that
we
have
a
whole
new
generation
of
excellence
going
to
Happy,
Valley,
so
I
know
you're
going
to
have
a
great
time
and.
G
G
However,
I
know
that
you're
going
to
do
very
well.
There
are
a
lot
of
great
opportunities
there
and
you're
gonna
have
an
opportunity
also
to
have
fun.
It's
a
wonderful,
unique
little
town
that
was
is
built
around
the
success
of
its
University
and
so
I
know
you're
going
to
have
a
great
time
and
great
success.
But
if
you
ever
need
any
advice
on
where
to
go
or
anything
like
that
feel
free
to
email,
because
there's
a
lot
of
you
know
the
dorms
too
I'll
just
tell
you.
G
A
lot
of
our
universities
have
been
making
a
lot
of
progress,
and
so
I
was
kind
of
amazed.
I
was
a
chaperone
it
for
Happy
Valley.
My
daughter
is
on
the
volleyball
team
and
we
would
go
up
there
over
labored
over
Memorial
weekend
and
I
had
not
been
up
there,
excepting
a
couple
years
ago
for
a
while
and
to
see
all
the
new
dorms
that
you
guys
are
going
to
be
able
to
sit
in
and
they've
expanded.
G
A
We've
now
reached
the
public
comment
portion
of
our
meeting.
Anyone
wishing
to
speak
on
an

A
M
Good
evening,
members
of
the
Board
of
Education,
my
name
is
Parker
Kraus
and
I'm,
a
junior
at
Severna,
Park,
High,
School
March
1st
a
day
that,
sadly,
will
always
be
imprinted
into
my
mind
as
the
date.
What
everything
changed,
let's
go
back
a
bit.
It
began
after
my
best
friend
received
multiple
detentions
and
referrals
for
coming
to
school,
hi
or
better,
yet
getting
high
at
school.
These
drugs
acted
as
a
mask
for
his
depression
and
suicidal
thoughts
when
the
time
finally
did
come,
and
the
courage
and
motivation
to
get
clean
arrived.
M
The
mass
began
to
fall
off
and
suicide
was
unveiled
to
say
that
he
screamed
for
help
was
an
understatement
and
he
wasn't
the
only
one
screaming
suicide
and
the
one
to
die.
Our
conversations
teens
have
on
a
daily
basis
and
it
starts
as
a
joke
until
it
becomes
so
real
that
you
have
to
attend
your
very
own
best
friend's
funeral
right
after
winter
break
months
before
my
friend
took
his
life.
I
went
to
my
administrator
to
discuss
my
own
anxiety.
I
spoke
about
how
I
struggled
to
keep
my
friend
alive
every
single
night.
M
It
was
by
far
the
hardest
thing
I
had
ever
experienced,
but
please
know
I
would
do
it
all
over
again
if
I
could,
but
a
16
year
old
junior
should
not
feel
responsible
for
someone
else's
life.
This
administrator
quickly
called
the
student
down
and
got
outside
resources
involved,
and,
yes,
those
can
be
helpful.
However,
this
child,
my
friend,
continued
to
scream
his
scream
for
help
was
urgent.
M
It
was
so
urgent,
I
made
him
promise
me
every
single
night
that
I
would
see
him
at
school
the
next
morning,
his
scream
for
help
was
so
loud
and
to
so
many
of
his
friends
and
teachers,
I
was
not
surprised
when
one
day
I
was
called
into
the
hallway
by
a
teacher
who
had
seen
marks
on
his
body
and
was
worried.
In
fact,
multiple
teachers
reported
concerning
comments
and
physical
marks
of
my
friend,
but
no
one
took
enough
action
to
stop
his
pain.
M
When
you
hear
a
student
say,
I
might
as
well
just
kill
myself
and
do
nothing
that
is
part
of
the
problem.
The
night
of
the
suicide
I
was
promised
that
crisis
response
team
would
be
at
the
school
in
support
of
anyone
struggling
on
that
Sunday
for
a
mandatory
tech
rehearsal
for
the
school
show
and
that
Monday
during
the
school
day,
and
that
the
school
would
have
additional
resources
available
for
anyone
in
need
some
were
available,
but
it
wasn't
enough.
M
I
was
shocked
when
my
family
received
a
call
on
that
Sunday
two
days
after
the
suicide
stating
that
CRS
was
told
to
stand
down
in
the
weeks
following
the
suicide
I
was
told
multiple
times
by
personnel
that
no
one
was
available
to
speak
with
me
and
that
it
would
be
better
if
I
just
went
home
now.
I
have
two
working
parents,
so
going
home
is
not
always
an
option.
M
At
one
point,
I
was
escorted
into
an
empty
conference
room
where
I
sat
alone
saw
until
I
could
calm
myself
down
the
recommendation
for
Anne
Arundel
County
Public
Schools
is
250
250
students
to
one
guidance,
counselor
and
my
school
and
other
schools
in
our
County.
That
ratio
is
much
higher.
I
hadn't
begun
to
feel
as
hopeless
as
my
friend
until
a
few
weeks.
After
his
death
reaching
out
for
help
is
hard,
but
reaching
out
for
help
and
not
having
someone
there
immediately
is
even
harder.
M
Students
are
suffering
according
to
Anne
Arundel
County
Department
of
Health,
the
most
recent
study
from
2014
to
2016,
the
suicide
rates
per
100,000
by
county
and
Maryland
5.4
in
PG,
County
7.2
in
Montgomery,
7.6
and
Howard
8.6
in
Baltimore,
City,
nine
point:
six
and
Frederick
nine
point:
seven
in
Baltimore,
County,
ten
point:
seven
in
Anne,
Arundel,
County,
twelve
point
three
in
Harford
fourteen
point
three
in
Carroll
and
fourteen
point:
seven
in
Washington
now
I
know
that
the
school
cannot
fix
everything.
This
is
a
problem
rooted
so
deep,
but
hopefully
we
can
join
together.
M
N
Hi,
my
name
is
Megan
mol,
Steele
and
I'm
here
to
follow
up
on
Parker's
testimony.
We,
the
students,
represented
by
our
minds
matter
movement,
request
that
the
board
of
IDI
take
the
following
steps:
establish
an
Anne,
Arundel,
County,
specific
public
school
crisis
response
team
to
execute
proactive
mental
health
interventions.
If
there
is
a
crisis,
they
should
also
be
automatically
deployed,
and
students
should
have
access
to
the
crisis
team
anytime.
N
How
to
talk
about
mental
health
along
with
suicide
and
where
to
find
proper
help,
as
well
as
guidance
counselor,
advised
lessons
for
elementary
schools
throughout
the
given
year
and
for
the
finally
for
the
Board
of
Ed
to
review
the
structure
and
workload
of
individual
mental
health
professionals
within
a
CPS.
We
ask
that
these
items
be
added
to
your
next
agenda
and
then
action
be
taken
on
each
immediately.
We
would
appreciate
a
written
update
as
soon
as
possible.
N
E
Mental
health
through
training
staff
increases
in
the
budget,
revisiting
policies
affecting
things
like
class
rank
and
school
hours.
We
all
must
recognize
that
this
is
a
very
complicated
issue
and
the
cause
of
student,
mental
health
struggles,
including
depression,
anxiety,
substance,
abuse,
violent
behavior,
suicidal
ideation
and
suicidal
acts
likely
cannot
be
found
in
one
place
and
certainly
cannot
be
blamed
on
the
school
system
alone.
For
those
that
read
education
and
psychology
journals
like
myself
and
even
just
mainstream
media.
We
also
must
recognize
that
the
increase
in
student
mental
health
issues
is
a
nationwide
epidemic.
E
That
being
said,
we
cannot
deny
that
some
of
the
factors
leading
to
these
concerns
are
likely
found
within
the
walls
of
our
schools.
It
is
time
to
take
a
hard
look
at
what
is
going
on
and
seek
answers
with
the
goal
of
finding
real
solutions
and
by
solutions.
I
mean
not
only
more
effective
identification
and
support
for
troubled
students,
but
to
begin
to
greatly
reduce
the
start
of
these
problems.
E
In
the
first
place,
I
would
like
to
propose
to
my
fellow
board
members
that
we
commissioned
a
task
force,
perhaps
in
partnership
with
the
Department
of
Health,
if
they're
willing
to
study
this
issue,
this
task
force
should
be
comprised
of
students,
parents
area
mental
health
professionals,
a
a
CPS
guidance
counselor's.
Certainly
a
representative
of
the
crisis
response
team.
This
list
is
not
all-inclusive,
but
it's
a
start
in
my
vision.
For
what
this
task
force
should
be.
E
This
board
can
give
it
some
thought
and
then
I
propose
that
at
our
next
meeting
we
develop
a
complete
list
of
who
should
be
on
this
task
force
and
vote
on
the
creation
of
this
task
force
to
be
assembled
and
begin
their
work
as
soon
as
possible.
I
sincerely
hope
my
fellow
board
members
are
in
agreement
and
that
we
need
to
look
at
this
issue
from
all
sides
and
begin
to
develop
solutions
that
will
likely
involve
policy
changes.
Greater
staffing
increases,
as
well
as
parent
and
community
involvement,
among
other
things.
E
B
Definitely
second
here
thank
you
for
your
bravery
and
coming
to
speak
with
us
tonight.
I
echo
a
lot
of
what
mrs.
Ellis
already
stated.
I
know
we
can
do
better.
I
know
it
doesn't
start
and
stop
all
the
way
with
us
as
a
school
system,
but
we
can
be
leaders
and
helping
to
solve
problems
and
I
intend
to
do
that
in
collaboration
with
my
board,
colleagues,
I
have
a
question
about
the
crisis
response
being
told
to
stand
down
and
I'm
hopeful
that
dr.
lado
can
can
help
me
understand
if
that,
if
that
did
occur,
why?
B
B
B
I,
just
you
know
if,
if
they
were
told
to
stand
down,
I
just
want
to
I
just
want
to
know.
If
that
did
happen,
if
you
can
report
back
to
us
if
it
did
and
if
it
did
by
whom
and
why
I
don't
know,
I
think
there's
just
some
lingering
questions.
I
know
we
talked
about
some
of
this
stuff
in
our
last
meeting.
I
just
have
lingering
questions
because
students,
at
least
some
of
them,
seem
to
feel
like
there
wasn't
enough,
and
if
there
wasn't
I
I
mean
I
want
to
do
more
all
day
long.
B
I
I
B
And
I
think
the
idea
to
have
a
crisis
response
team.
That's
that's
solely
ours!
If
the
school
systems
is
a
wonderful
one
and
I
want
to
I
want
to
address
all
the
other
requests
that
were
laid
out
so
eloquently.
Thank
you
much
more
than
than
I
am
able
to
articulate,
but
I
would
like
to
I
would
like
to
talk
about
these
things
in
our
next
meeting
and
see
what
we
can
do
to
help.
I
I
would
then
encourage
this
board
as
you're
talking
with
members
of
the
County
Council,
as
well
as
our
students
and
parents
and
others
that
care
about
this
subject
that
they
make
sure
their
voices
are
heard
with
the
County
Council's,
the
county
councils
go
through
the
process
of
finalizing
our
budget.
What
was
released
by
the
county
executive
today
and
then
into
the
future,
because
that
would
be
something
the
county
as
a
whole
would
have
to
pick
up
to
create
additional
crisis
response
teams.
I
B
Absolutely
and
to
that
end
bring-bring.
What
you've
said
here
and
more
of
you
and
go
to
the
the
budget
hearings
there
on
may
9th
in
may
13th
and
one
is
at
the
Arundel
Center,
the
other
one
I
think
the
13th
one
is
at
North
County,
High
School
and
you
know
that's
all:
it's
all
fight
for
for
more
services
and
because
I
hear
you
and
and
I
react
to
everything
as
a
parent
first
as
well,
and
it
breaks
my
heart
so
yeah.
Thank
you
for
being
so
brave
and
coming
I.
Think.
I
You
guys
are
great
for
being
here.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
for
standing
up
for
what
it
is.
You
guys
really
believe
in
what
you
think's
important
for
your
community
and
your
fellow
students
Megan
and
Parker
before
you
guys
leave.
Would
you
meet
with
mrs.
Jackson,
dr.
Luka,
relish
think
it's
more
information
from
you
and
we
can
talk
about
how
we
can
get
together
in
the
future.
Would
you
all
do
that
before
you
leave
outstanding?
Thank
you.
P
Good
evening,
everyone,
my
name,
is
Jennifer
sours
I'm,
the
executive
director
for
Anne
Arundel
County
parent
coalition,
I
have
spoken
here
many
times.
As
most
of
you
know,
each
time
I
asked
for
what
I
think
would
be
in
the
best
interest
of
our
community
and
our
children.
Tonight
I
stand
before
you
seeking
action,
immediate
swift
and
meaningful
action.
P
So
the
heartbreaking
fact
is
that
Anne
Arundel
County
has
lost
two
of
our
students
to
suicide.
In
the
last
few
months,
the
steady
rise
of
self-harm
attempted
suicide,
and
suicide
in
our
County
is
unacceptable.
Many
of
you
that
are
elected
members
campaign
on
a
platform
of
change.
This
is
your
call
to
action.
These
issues
presented
to
you
tonight
are
life
and
death.
The
Anne
Arundel
County
crisis
response
team
can
no
longer
be
arbitrarily
turned
away
by
principals
and
children.
Potentially
suffering
abuse
at
home
can
no
longer
be
withheld
resources
based
on
parents
approval.
P
Both
of
these.
These
facts
have
been
ascertained
from
Jenn
Corbin.
With
the
crisis
response
team,
she
has
stated
multiple
times
that
she
is
not
allowed
into
a
building
without
an
invitation,
and
she
is
not
allowed
to
speak
to
a
child
without
the
parents
consent,
so
that
needs
to
be
changed
now.
With
that
in
mind,
tonight,
I
asked
that
we
work
together
to
find
us
Ellucian.
We
all
know
that
funding
is
a
major
concern.
P
The
demands
of
these
brave
teens
behind
me
tonight
take
into
consideration
that
funding
number
one
establishing
for
Mobile
crisis
response
teams
that
are
overseen
and
paid
for
by
the
Board
of
Education
will
eliminate
the
need
for
approval
to
enter
schools
approvals,
to
communicate
with
students
and
will
allow
consistent,
proactive
initiatives
to
be
executed
by
each
team.
Number.
Two
establishing
a
committee
of
third
party
licensed
mental
health
professionals
to
establish
standard
operating
procedures
is
paramount.
P
These
are
to
be
volunteer
positions,
as
many
of
the
other
committees
are
in
Anne
Arundel
County,
Public
Schools.
It
is
imperative
that
these
licensed
professionals
be
tasked
with
developing
the
standards
for
reporting,
suspected
mental
health
concerns
for
students
and
evaluate
the
current
structure,
workload
and
effectiveness
of
mental
health
professionals
within
a
a
CPS.
The
fact
that
we
may
have
more
money
on
the
table.
P
At
this
time,
I
asked
for
one
of
you
to
propose
adding
these
items
to
your
next
agenda,
which
I
think
you've
already
done
correct
and
for
an
immediate
vote.
At
that
time,
many
of
you
have
campaigned
on
brain
changes.
Those
goals
well
I
appreciate
your
time
this
evening.
I
would
appreciate
even
more.
If
you
took
action
to
save
our
children,
we
will
be
following
up
with
dr.
Earl
Otto
at
our
May
8th
meeting
on
all
of
the
progress
we
look
forward
to
working
together
to
make
some
changes
and
ensuring
the
safety
of
our
students.
C
Miss
hours,
thank
you
for
your
testimony
and
thank
you
for
your
work,
especially
on
anti-bullying,
want
to
make
a
correction
that
I
heard
earlier
that
there's
some
insinuation
that
we
are
not
paying
attention
to
these
testimonies.
We,
even
if
we're
in
that
back
room.
We
are
definitely
able,
through
our
superb
audio-visual
team,
to
hear
those
testimonies.
So
thank
you
for
that.
B
Thank
you
for
your
testimony.
I
really
appreciate
it
appreciate
it.
I
do
have
a
question
about
for
dr.
a
lot--oh
regarding
the
crisis
response
teams
and
their
ability
to
talk
with
students
can
I
think
we
touched
on
that.
We
touched
on
a
lot
of
things
though
I
wasn't,
and
so
forgive
me,
but
can
you
remind
me,
are
those
teams
allowed
to
do?
They
need
consent
from
a
parent
to
talk
to
a
student
if
they're
invited
and
are
they
if
you
are
inviting
the
man,
do
they
need
subsequent
and
a
subsequent
invitation
from
the
principal.
I
I
This
crisis
response
works
for
the
county.
They
are
a
county
resource
that
we
take
advantage
of
when
we
really
when,
when
we
need
it
and
that
they're
available
there
are
times
where
we
could
call
them
and
they
are
just
not
available
because
they
are
a
single
team
and
there
could
be
something
going
on
in
one
of
our
communities
anywhere
in
the
county,
and
so
we
have
a.
We
have
our
own
trauma
teams
that
are
built
around
the
county
that
can
be
deployed
at
a
moment's
notice.
I
So
we
have
trauma
teams
of
counselors
and
social
workers
and
school
psychologists
as
well
as
central
office
team
that
can
be
deployed
when
we
have
an
emergency
situation
at
a
school
involving
a
student
or
involving
a
an
adult.
And
so
it
is
that
trauma
thing
we
send
in
a
small
team
that
goes
in
and
analyzes
the
situation.
They
get
a
feel
for
what's
needed,
and
then
they
call
in
the
trauma
team.
We
put
them
on
alert
as
soon
as
we
know
in
advance.
I
When
many
of
these
unfortunate
incidents
happen,
involving
our
students
and
staff,
they
had,
they
don't
happen
during
work
hours.
They
happen
in
the
middle
of
the
night,
and
so
when
we
get
contacted
our
our
phone
tree,
our
text
tree
goes
out
from
the
team
and
we
immediately
I'm
contacted
in
the
middle
of
the
night,
and
we
immediately
contact
the
trauma
team
to
put
them
on
alert
and
what
schools
are
going
to
be
going
to
and
what
we
know
at
the
time.
I
We're
also
talking
to
the
fire,
EMS
and
police
department
to
get
updates
and
any
information
they
can
share
with
us.
We
then
send
in
a
team,
does
an
analysis
and
we
see
what
we
can
work
with.
So
most
of
our
team
will
work
with
students
where,
when
the
need
is,
and
we
bring
into
crisis
the
mobile
crisis,
team
they'll
work
with
adults,
that's
typically
how
we
divide
and
conquer
is
Jenn
Corbin.
I
Her
team
will
work
with
adults,
so
a
staff
member
that
is
totally
distraught
by
the
loss
of
a
child
which
we
have
had
recently
they'll
work
with
the
adults
and
we
work
primarily
with
the
students.
There
are
times
where
that
will
cross,
but
that's
basically
the
division
of
work.
We
are
trained
to
work
with
those
children.
Our
school
psychologists
and
counselors,
or
work
with
the
students
in
need,
while
the
crisis
team
will
work
with
the
adults
in
need
and.
B
B
I
Hours
so
I
will
be
again.
Questions
that
I've
been
hearing
miss
ours
has
not
been
short
of
sending
emails.
To
give
us
lots
of
information.
Am
I
right
right
and
so
I
have
all
of
those
in
a
stack.
The
file
is
growing.
I
asked
her
if
she
would
meet
with
me
and
she
has
agreed
with
her
team
to
meet
next
week.
We're
gonna
talk
about
many
of
those
issues.
He's
also
brought
some
issues
that
I'll
be
able
to
talk
directly
with
the
Mobile
crisis
directors,
perfect.
I
A
Thank
you
any
other
word
questions
at
this
point
see
no
I
know
mr.
ray
I
wanted
to
make
a
comment,
but
she
was
pulled
out
into
the
lobby,
so
we
may
suspend
when
she
comes
back
just
so.
She
can
make
a
follow-up
comment
if
the
board
would
be
okay
with
that,
but
right
now
we'll
move
to
our
in
our
consent.
Calendar
we've
got
items
4.0
one
through
four
point:
zero:
three!
Is
there
a
motion
to
bundle
these.
D
A
I
A
D
B
You
so
much
I
have
a
question
about
item
4.0,
one:
the
award
of
contract
for
frozen
canned
and
packaged
foods.
I
was
looking
at
the
documentation
that
came
with
our
yellow
sheet
and
and
there's
a
lot
of
blank
spaces,
and
so
did
those
to
the
to
the
the
other
companies
that
did
not
get
the
award.
Did
they
just
not
choose
you
provide
any
pricing
or
if
they
did
provide
some
pricing.
It's
definitely
not
filled
in
here
so
I'm,
just
I'm,
just
curious
Oh.
Certainly.
Q
Lx
check
now
is
chief
operating
officer.
If
you
take
a
look
at
page
2
of
your
exhibit
you'll
notice
at
the
bottom
and
asterisks,
and
the
asterisks
indicates
that
the
bids
from
the
firms
that
you
previously
reference
we're
ejected
because
they
did
not
bid
on
the
required
food
items.
So
if
a
vendor
is
rejected,
they
we
explain
to
them.
You
know
why
we
also
offer
to
have
a
briefing
with
them
after
the
fact
just
to
make
sure
that
they
clearly
understand
what
the
matter
was
and
so
that
they
can
improve
their
bidding
proficiency.
Q
B
B
Q
So
this
was
analyzed
by
our
purchasing
officer
and
the
results
do
comport
with
the
procurement
elements
of
Komar
and
our
board
policy
and
regs.
It's
important
also
to
note
that
Dori
is
that
is
the
incumbent
as
hidden
and
has
been
performing
successfully
for
us
for
a
good
many
years
at
a
high-volume
business.
So
we
know
that
they
are
both
competitive
and
responsive.
Thank.
B
Q
So
the
ability
to
cure
a
defect
in
a
bid
under
the
state,
education
or
human
regulations
is
extremely
limited
things
that
you
cannot
that
you
cannot
cure.
Are
things
like
price
like
quantity?
So
there
are
things
that
you
can
not
cure
under
the
state
law
there
I'll
just
call
them.
Omissions
were
essentially
on
the
list
of
things
that
they
are
not
allowed
to
cure
in
a
bit.
Okay,.
C
So,
in
my
only
know,
the
question
was
coming
from
the
fact
that
there
were
four
bidders
that
could
potentially
compete
and
three
of
the
four
just
kind
of
didn't
answer
the
call
because
of
some
omissions.
So
thank
you
for
that
that
clarification
I
also
wanted
to
know.
If
there
were
plans,
then,
if
it
went
back
down
to
one-
and
we
had
three
that
didn't
quite
for
whatever
reason
did
not
include
what
they
could
or
couldn't
do,
were
there
plans
to
just
recompete
it
before
we
do
the
award.
Q
No
again,
we
are
now
well
to
begin
with
the
the
solicitation
was
sent
out
to
98
vendors,
so
out
of
98
qualified
vendors.
Only
four
elected
to
participate
in
27
of
those
98
vendors
were
in
fact
MSP
e
candidates,
as
well,
so
out
of
that
universe
of
potentially
capable
and
successful
vendors,
only
four
elected
to
even
submit
a
bid
to
start
with,
and
then
only
one
of
those
four
met.
The
test
of
responsive
responsiveness
and
but
and
responsible
mess
makes.
C
Q
Q
This
allows
students
under
the
supervision
of
teachers
to
practice
their
keyboarding
skills,
certainly
the
vast
majority
that
likely
occurs
inside
of
the
instructional
day,
but
I
can
well
imagine
that
for
extended
help
days
or
things
like
that,
some
of
these
activities
are
available
to
them
as
well.
We've
purchased
it
we're
not
limited
to
the
hours
of
use.
So
if
a
co,
curricular
club
or
a
faculty
member
one
sees
it
after
hours,
that's
that's
perfectly
soon.
D
Q
Q
When
we
purchase
them,
you
purchase
only
X
amount
of
seat
licenses,
for
example,
so
it
I,
don't
know
the
answer
specific
to
this,
but
I'm
giving
you
a
more
generic
answer,
but
absent
it
be
purposely
bid
that
way,
and
we
don't
typically
do
that
largely
for
cost
control
as
well,
but
the
term
conditions
and
a
software
licensing
agreements
in
many
cases
do
not
permit
us
to
send
that
software
whom
to
have
somebody
install
it
on
their
own
personal
machine.
Okay,.
B
Just
to
piggyback
on
on
that,
but
there
are
so
I
understand
that
this
could
likely
just
be
used
on
our
equipment.
I
get
it
are
there
are
there
resources,
and-
and
this
is
just
out
of
curiosity,
that
students
can
use
at
home
that
you're
aware
of
free
resources
for
specifically
to
use
to
learn
how
to
type
that,
sometimes
the
teacher
sends
home
like
extra
resources.
You
might
want
to
do
all
these
things.
I
mean
during
your
summer
to
keep
up
on
your
skills,
etc.
Is
there
a
typing
one?
You
know
again.
Q
B
A
A
H
Thank
you
not
to
make
this
any
longer
than
it
needs
to
be.
I
stepped
out
just
because
those
students
as
well
go
to
sprint
Park
High
School,
just
like
me,
so
it
kind
of
hits
home
what
they
said,
but
I
just
want
to
say
just
an
overall
arching
thing
that
I
reach
out
to
them,
because
mental
health
is
also
very
important
issue
to
me
as
well,
not
only
as
a
board
member
but
as
a
student
and
I
want
to
assure
everybody.
H
So
I
understand
that
it's
difficult
for
many
people
to
always
know
all
the
information
and
very
hard
for
us
to
convey
all
the
information,
sometimes
whether
or
not
it
be
that
were
not
allowed
to
or
that
it's
just
so
much
information
for
students
to
handle.
But
I
know
that
every
day
we
are
continuing
to
get
better
than
aspect,
so
thank
you.
Thank.
A
I
A
J
R
A
B
S
F
This
time
of
year
is
always
a
little
bittersweet
because
we
get
the
personnel
things
and
we
get
to
see
who's
retiring
and
we
always
we
welcome
and
celebrate
our
new
teachers.
We
hire
every
year,
but
we
have
some
amazing
master
teachers
that
are
leaving,
and
so
I
looked
through
the
list
of
this
just
this
list.
We
have
this
week.
We
have
24
people
with
over
30
years,
experience
that
are
retiring
and
we
have
five
with
more
than
40
years
experience.
F
They
have
been
serving
students
for
decades
and
they
will
be,
they
will
be
missed,
because
that
is
a
great
wealth
of
experience
and
dedication
and
so
I
know
we
will
get
excellent,
wonderful
new
teachers
in,
but
thank
you
to
all
the
veteran
teachers
who
have
devoted
their
lives
and
careers
to
and
to
teaching
in
general
anta
and
Rowan
County
Public
Schools.
Mr.
J
You,
mr.
president,
just
make
a
note
of
the
retirements
it's
1577
millions
of
experience,
that's
how
much
it
hit
home.
As
Homer
said,
you
know,
I
singled
out
a
few
as
well
Gizella,
I'm
gonna,
say
this.
One
Lola
look:
Toby
Arundel
middle
school,
forty
three
point:
four
years:
family,
consumer
science,
Diane
Schwartz
forty
point
five
years:
George
Fox,
middle
special,
ed
and.
D
J
C
So
I
just
want
to
congratulate
those
teachers
who
already
are
moving
on
into
retirement.
Well
deserved
it's!
It's
not
easy
to
get
up
every
day
and
face
some
so
much
I'm
sure
you
have
stories
and
information
on
having
a
house
full
of
educators,
myself,
iDEN
I,
understand
that
sacrifice
and
I
commend
you
and
thank
you
sincerely
for
your
service.
C
O
C
I
C
C
I
And
and
the
majority
of,
as
you
see
their
time
with
us,
has
to
do
with
tenure
and
before
they
are
tenured
they're
all
within
under
three
years.
So
those
are
determinations
that
that
that
this
administration
and
this
board
get
to
make
and
I
would
not
recommend
that
the
board
delay
this
but
it'll
be
up
to
the
board.
Q
Q
So
they
are
carefully
vetted
and
miss
Koch's
is
behind
me,
but
we
have
a
multi-discipline
team
that
meets
for
a
number
of
days
to
review
each
and
every
one
of
these
cases
to
make
sure
that
all
of
the
required
elements
have
been
completed
before
that
recommendation
is
moved
forward
to
the
superintendent.
That
team
has
what
about
eight
eight
to
ten
individual
T
discipline,
individuals,
there's
a
lot
of
set
of
eyes,
including
legal
HR
budget,
etc.
C
So
my
my
personal
request
that
it
be
delayed,
is
it
necessarily
because
of
the
work
or
failure
on
any
of
your
parts?
We
normally
get
rationale,
though,
when
we
make
these
decisions,
so
we
can
make
informed
decisions,
and
in
this
case
we
just
got
a
set
of
names,
so
I
would
prefer
before
I
make
that
decision
to
understand.
Why
and
that-
and
that
is
all
yes.
R
M
A
Give
us
one
second
to
do
a
quick
recess,
moving
the
back
but
for
personal
purposes,
but
when
we
make
the
motion,
of
course,
if
it's
a
paragraph
long
for
our
bid,
you
that
none
of
us
have
memorized
so
I
want
to
make
sure
we
we
read
it
appropriately
and
then
we'll
have
that
motion.
So
just
give
us
a
second
yeah.
H
A
A
R
R
A
S
J
C
A
T
May
I
wanted
to
provide
just
a
quick
comment
on
some
previous
coming
sure,
so
for
the
record.
Jeanette
Ortiz,
legislative
and
policy
counsel,
so
I
was
listening
in
on
the
public
comment
portion
of
the
meeting
and
I
heard
some
of
the
public
comments
by
students
and
board
members
and
I
just
wanted
to
bring
to
your
attention
that
you
know
this
is
the
issue
of
mental
and
behavioral.
Health
is
something
that
we
are
always
looking
at
and
working
on
and
dr.
a
lot--oh
mentioned
this
and
Josie
a
little
bit
earlier.
T
But
I
just
wanted
to
point
out
that
we
do
have
policies
and
regulations
dealing
with
a
lot
of
these
issues
and
actually
I've
been
working
with
staff
to
further
supplement
current
policies
and
procedures
in
accordance
with
the
Maryland
safe
to
learn.
Act
that
passed
last
session
in
2018
and
dr.
lotto
actually
participated
on
a
state
workgroup,
as
did
a
CPS
staff,
and
so
we've
been
further
updating
our
policies
and
procedures
to
reflect
the
changes
in
that
law
and
guidelines
that
were
presented
by
MSDE
and
I.
B
T
And
so
policy
G
ad,
it's
a
long
name,
so
it's
confidential
communication
of
at-risk
student
behaviors
that
is
more
for
staff
and
what
staff
procedures
and
what
they
need
to
do
with
various
at-risk
student
behaviors,
including
suicidal
thoughts
and
gestures
and
harm
to
others.
And
so
this
new
policy
and
regulation
that
were
required
to
adopt
in
accordance
with
MSDE
guidelines
will
pull
out
some
of
the
information
in
G
a
D
and
G
a
GRA
and
create
a
standalone
policy
dealing
with
student
behavioral
threat
assessments
in
accordance
with
the
guidelines
established.
T
So
that's
why
I
mentioned
we
are
kind
of
ahead
of
the
curve
in
that
we
have
a
lot
of
that
stuff
already
in
our
policies
and
procedures,
and
so
the
new
policy
is
pulling
out
some
of
the
things
that
we
already
have
in
existence
and
then
also
adding
additional
information
that
were
in
guidelines
that
was
established
by
MSD
in
the
workgroup
that
dr.
Alonso
and
a
ACPs
staff
participated
in,
and
that's
actually
going
before
the
policy
committee
at
the
next
meeting.
It's.
T
We
have
other
policies
and
I
believe
it
said
like
in
the
EES
code,
dealing
with
emergency
circumstances
and
things
like
that,
and
we
also
have
like
internal
guidelines
and
manuals
to
deal
with
emergency
situations.
So
you
have
our
office
of
school
security,
for
example,
Student,
Support,
Services
and
others
that
are
already
involved.
So
we're
doing
a
lot
of
those
things
already.
All
of.
B
T
A
T
H
Hi
miss
Ortiz
I
just
want
to.
Thank
you
very
much
for
saying
that
means
a
lot
and
just
great
input
as
well.
I
also
wanted
to
say
I
know
your
daughter
goes
from
Park
High
School,
so
I
hope
enlighten
everything
she's
enjoying
it.
So
thank.
T
You
she
loves
that
she
loves
her
in
a
practice
school
and
she
transitioned
over
this
past
school
year
from
nine
years
of
Catholic
school
to
public
schools.
To
where
a
little
you
know,
I
was
a
little
worried
as
a
mom
and
going
to
like
a
class
of
fifty
something
to
a
larger
class.
But
it's
been
a
wonderful
transition.
She
loves
that
her
teachers
are
wonderful,
the
administration
has
been
great
and
she
has
made
had
some
friends
that
were
already
there
has
been
new
friends
and
all
her
teacher
said.
T
T
A
J
A
I
R
A
B
Q
Let
me
start
with
that:
I'm
Alex
act
new
chief
operating
officer.
The
answer
is,
we
have
the
best
food
nutrition
services
team
around
missmiss
risky
and
her
team
are
incredible
at
what
they
do.
Literally
the
the
phrase
watch.
Every
penny
applies
to
them
more
so
than
anyone
else
remember
that
heretofore
they've
not
received
any
County
funding.
They
were
only
funded
by
federal
resources,
state
resources
and
the
sales
of
their
their
consumables
and
other
food
products.
Q
So
they
literally
have
to
watch
each
and
every
penny
they
do
and
have
received
increases
in
federal
subsidies
or
state
subsidies
in
the
years
that
either
de
feds
were
the
state
government
has
elected
to
do
so.
That
has
helped
them
to
some
extent,
but
the
vast
majority
of
it
really
is
watching
every
single
penny
that
they
do
and
then
selling
the
you
know
the
ala
carte
items
and
things
like
that
that
helps
them
recover
some
revenue,
but
it
all
goes
back
to
the
awesome.
Fns
theme
very.
B
U
Sure
can
for
the
record,
I'm,
Jodie,
Russi
supervisor,
of
food
and
nutrition
services.
Thank
you
for
the
compliment,
and
it's
really
the
great
team
that
I
have
they're
phenomenal.
The
truly
we
are
better
together
implies
definitely
with
all
of
our
staff.
I
have
about
500
staff
out
in
the
schools,
there's
13
next
door,
and
they
really
are
all
awesome
in
the
support
that
I
get
from
the
team
and
dr.
allot,
oh
and
mr.
Chicano,
which
is
always
unbelievable.
So
it
makes
it
makes
it
very
easy.
Local
sourcing
I
would
love
to
talk.
U
We
actually
hosted
the
United
States
Department
of
Agriculture.
Today
it's
called
produce
University,
it's
a
week-long,
intense
training
and
they
came
to
Anne
Arundel
County,
all
because
of
our
local
sourcing.
So
we
entertained
them
at
North,
County,
High
School.
They
were
able
to
see
our
lunch
service
all
of
our
fruit
and
vegetable
bars
and
our
students
are
able
to
take.
You
know
upwards
of
they
fill
half
of
their
try,
but
they
could
take
between
eight
and
fifteen.
We
offer
eight
between
eight
and
fifteen
fruits
and
vegetables
a
day.
Today
we
had
local
asparagus.
U
It
was
both
roasted
and
it
was
fresh
on
the
salad
bar.
They
then
went
down
to
the
garden.
They
were
able
to
see
the
bees
shikaka
mushrooms,
they
saw
all
of
the
new
plantings
and
then
we
drove
them
for
forty-five
minutes
down
to
Schlegel
farms,
and
he
is
one
of
our
growers.
So
last
year
alone
we
bought
I
believe
it
was
over
two
thousand
cases
of
local
produce
from
him.
So
he
does
all
of
our
local
butternut
squash,
our
acorn
squash,
our
peppers,
our
pumpkin
strawberries,
green
peppers
and
cabbage.
So
local
has
gone.
U
I
mean
we
increase
every
year
we
post
it
online,
it's
very
transparent.
We
work
with
our
produce
distribution
center.
We
use
design
and
print
services
all
the
time.
So
we
do
tasting
of
the
rainbow
the
first
Friday
of
every
month.
It's
always
a
local
or
it
tends
to
be
local.
So
we
showcase
the
farmer,
we
showcase
the
item
and
we
showcase
our
children.
We.
Q
Partner
with
the
County
Office
of
Economic,
Development
ADC
has
an
agricultural
unit,
and
mr.
senior
group
works
collaboratively
with
the
County
Agricultural
units
in
terms
of
outreach
making
sure
that
they
spread
to
business
opportunities
that
we
have
here
and
we
are
very
aggressive
in
terms
of
when
it
goes
to
bidding
and
procuring
those
items.
To
make
sure
that
the
local
presence
is
fully
aware
of
the
opportunities
here.
U
They're
all
gap
certified
for
sure
we
don't
purchase
unless
it's
gap.
Certified
capital
seaboard
is
our
produce
distribution.
They
require
that,
as
do
we
as
a
county,
they
are
not
organic.
Our
volume
is
huge
and
they're
not
only
providing
for
us
they're,
providing
retail
as
well
as
other
school
districts,
but
and
we
look
at
about
a
250
mile
radius.
So
we
have
a
lot
of
partnerships
with
a
lot
of
farmers
and
it's
just
a
great
way
to
really.
B
D
F
So
over
the
summer,
I
had
the
I
in
the
summer,
I
had
the
pleasure
of
visiting
several
sites
where
you
bring
the
summer
meals
each
time
and
also
Slagle
farms
with
the
Farmers
Market
at
Brooklyn
Park,
which
is
a
fabulous
partnership
bringing
in
our
families
to
have
their
love.
It
I
know
that
you
always
have
a
very
aggressive
goal
for
how
many
meals
you're
gonna,
provide
in
the
summertime.
What's
your
goal
for
this
year,
150,000
150,000
she
wants
to
increase
by
50%.
Are
you
adding
more
sites?
The.
U
Son,
we
are
I,
think
we're
gonna
really
focus
on
more,
especially
our
remote
sites.
As
you
mentioned,
we
love
our
mobile
meal
sites,
so
we're
trying
to
maybe
restructure
them
a
little
bit
better
and
go
into
the
the
communities
a
little
bit
further
or
a
different
location
once
we're
in
there
and
really
with
the
farmers
market.
We're
really
hoping
that
has
done
so
well
the
last
year-
and
this
is
our
fourth
consecutive
year
that
we
can
really
increase
the
amount
of
participation
at
Brooklyn,
Park
middle.
Remember.
Q
F
F
F
Much
cheaper
than
Disney
yes,
but
we
load
up
so
it's
kind
of
I
love
the
how
innovative
you
always
always
are,
but
also
to
it,
is
so
incredible
for
our
families
that
these
prices
have
not
raised.
How
many
years
in
a
row
are
me
now.
This
is
our
sixth
six
years
without
raising
that
is
such
a
boom,
because
we
have
many
families
that
are.
You
know
that
this
makes
a
huge
difference
for
them
for
the
price,
and
so
thank
you
for
all
you're
doing,
for
you
know
for
the
children
of
this
county
appreciate.
Thank
you.
F
E
U
As
a
registered
dietician
and
a
mom
of
two
students
in
Anne,
Arundel
County,
you
know
I've
been
part
of
the
menu
process
since
day
one
so
I
was
one
of
the
original
registered
dieticians.
We
now
have
four
on
staff,
so
we
really
are
very
heavily
invested
in
the
nutrition
and
what
we
provide
our
students.
So
we
still
I
mean
we
look
at
trends.
We
constantly
change
the
menu.
Our
participation
continues
to
rise,
even
when
you
know
across
the
country
you
heard
about
meal,
you
know
school
meals
and
their
participation
going
down.
We
did
not.
U
We
continue
to
rise,
so
I
think
it's
really
colorful
our
fruits
and
vegetables.
I
think
are
amazing.
The
amount
of
entree
salads
that
our
students
eat
continue
to
go
up
so
I
just
think
we
we
provided
them
the
best
nutrition
possible
to
keep
them
fueled
and
they're
coming
and
enjoying
it
and
the
more
we
market
it
the
more
they
come.
U
Q
I
think
the
better.
The
other
thing
miss
Ellis
is
remembered.
A
food
nutrition
service
is
one
of
the
well
wedges
on
the
Wellness
wheel
as
well.
So,
whereas
maybe
we
would
have
thought
about
food,
nutrition
and
isolation,
it's
it's
very
much
more.
A
360
endeavor
with
with
those
options
and
discussions
happening
throughout
the
correct,
not
just
the
posters
in
the
lunch
line,
etc.
So
I
think
there's
a
heightened
sense
of
awareness
and
intentionally
focused
education
around
a
whole
topic
and
I
think
that's
dovetailing
wonderfully
with
the
services
that
FNS
provides
I.
U
Think
would
we're
able
to
introduce
new
food
items
as
well.
I
think
the
excitement
that
we
can
create
in
the
schoolhouse
goes
home
right.
So
if
they
go
home
and
they
ask
mom
and
dad
well
I'd
love
cauliflower
can
I
try
butternut
squash
again,
it's
really
I
mean
we're
educating
the
community
at
large
and
really
making
everyone
healthier
based
off
what
we're
doing
in
our
schools.
That's.
A
A
A
Change
ban,
if
you
will
that
added
cost
to
the
school
system.
I
know
during
our
budget
process
in
February
there
was
an
amendment
I
think
it
was
amendment
number
81.
If
memory
serves
me
correctly,
that
we
we
added
1.2,
1.3
million,
roughly
that
was
shared
50/50
split
I,
believe-
was
that
funded
today
by
the
county
executive.
So.
Q
The
cost
was
about
400,
just
a
little
bit
north
of
four
hundred
and
fifty
thousand
dollars
and
you're
gonna
get
the
details
of
that
here,
a
little
bit,
but
the
county
executive
has
recommended
fully
funding
the
incremental
or
differential
cost
increase
for
the
organic
based
product
raise
over
the
polystyrene
trays.
So
should
the
county
executive's
budget
be
adopted
as
he
has
proposed,
then
that
item
will
be
financially
covered
and
we
will
not
suffer
an
unfunded
mandate.
Thank.

L
L
The
next
three
items
presented
will
be
the
educational
specifications
for
quarter
field,
hills,
Muir
and
rippling
woods.
Elementary
schools.
Educational
specifications
are
the
first
step
in
the
design
process
for
a
major
capital
project.
These
documents
outline
the
proposed
educational
programs,
activities,
area
requirements
and
performance
expectations
of
the
proposed
capital
project.
The
feasibility
studies
will
be
based
on
these
headspace
volume.
One
of
the
two
volumes
contains
components
that
apply
to
all
elementary
schools.
It's
divided
into
four
sections,
section
1,
describes
goals
and
driving
values
outlined
in
the
strategic
plan.
L
Section
2
provides
a
general
description
of
the
proposed
site
requirements
and
building
systems.
Section
3
provides
a
table
of
adjacencies
for
programmatic
and
support
spaces.
For
example,
you
wouldn't
want
to
put
a
music
room
next
to
the
media
center
section
4
describes
the
activity
areas
of
the
schools
and
data
sheets
for
spaces
that
include
information
on
size
finishes.
Mechanical
electrical
requirements
as
well
as
furniture
and
fixtures
volume
2,
which
is
section
5
and
6,
includes
items
specific
to
a
particular
school.
L
L
The
scope
of
work
budget
and
schedule
are
included
in
Section
5.
If
constructing
replacement
school,
we
are
projecting
a
building
size
of
approximately
84
thousand
square
feet
with
the
budget
cost
estimate
of
39
million,
if
funded
as
reflected
in
our
six-year
plan
the,
but
the
project
would
be
complete
in
August
2023
section.
Six
is
the
summary
of
spatial
requirements
showing
all
Ares
program
to
the
school,
including
the
type
and
quantity
the
community
youth
portion
of
the
building
before
and
after
care,
and
the
extended
gym
is
shown
separately.
L
L
L
Since
the
approval
of
the
master
plan,
the
actual
September
30th
2000
enrollment
indicates
an
increase
in
students,
because
the
site
contains
critical
areas
and
will
impact
the
size
of
the
school
and
in
Jason
schools
have
some
capacity.
The
SRC
is
still
reflected
as
461
as
the
process
moves
forward.
We
will
monitor
and
make
adjustments
if
necessary.
L
The
square
footage
of
replacement
school
would
be
approximately
65,000
square
feet
and
the
budget
estimate
is
33
million
and
the
schedule
also
reflects
in
August
2023
opening.
Once
again,
this
summary
of
spatial
requirements
for
this
specific
school
is
shown
in
the
section
6,
with
a
square
footage
summary
at
the
end.
L
Rippling
woods
is
next,
it
was
built
in
1974
and
it
is
one
of
our
open
plan.
Schools,
the
proposed
a
trade
capacity
be
775,
which
includes
a
30
student,
regional,
special
education,
/
alternative
education
program.
The
proposed
square
footage
would
be
approximately
a
hundred
thousand
square
feet
and
the
budget
estimate
is
53
million
dollars
and
would
be
complete
in
August
2023.
The
summary
table
at
the
end
indicates
the
square
footage
separately
for
the
regional
program
and
parks
and
recs
requirements.
L
B
Thank
you
for
all
this
wonderful
information.
I'll
admit
this
was
my
first
rodeo
reading
stuff
like
this,
but
my
background
prior
to
having
a
child
was
energy
efficiency
and
renewables
and
I
have
also
have
an
HVAC
background
too.
So
this
was
really
cool
to
see.
My
first
comment
was,
though
I
thought
I
read
at
the
beginning
of
the
quarter,
filled
elementary
educational
specification
that
that
this
that
this
highlighted
some
some
changes
so
I
wanted
to
know
is
the
whole
document,
a
change
or
because
we
don't
have
the
benefit
of
like
track
changes.
B
What
specifically
was
was
highlighted
and
I
would
recommend
that
if,
if
there
are
like
just
little
things
going
forward,
it
would
be
great
to
see
that
sort
of
an
attraction
just
sort
of
format.
Just
so
we
don't
have
to
you
know
if
some
of
this
language
is
standard,
but
some
of
it
is
that
would
be
great
to
see.
That
was
my
first
question,
but
I
have
lots
of
more.
We.
V
Address
that
so
the
original
elementary
ed
spec
was
approved
in
October
2004
and
that's
a
lifetime
ago
when
it
comes
to
the
design
of
our
elementary
all
of
our
schools.
So
you're
right,
we
do
not
have
track
changes,
but
what
we
do
is
we
update
it
as
codes
change,
for
example,
the
acoustical
requirements
have
changed
in
recent
years.
V
We
updated
as
the
energy
codes
change
as
LEED
requirements
came
in
for
new
buildings
from
the
state
and
even
those
are
being
modified
now,
so
there
has
been
a
I'd
be
happy
to
supply
you
with
previous
examples
of
the
ED
specs,
but
I
would
definitely
take
under
advisement
your
recommendation
to
track
the
changes
for
future
reference.
I
should.
B
D
B
B
V
So
the
the
life
safety
codes
and
building
codes
are
less
about
lead
per
se,
but
we
do
I
think
further
along
in
this
the
last
section
on
the
next
page
6
we
talk
about
sustainability
and
are
building
any
new
building
in
the
state
of
Maryland
prior
to
a
change.
That's
about
to
be
modified
now
within
the
state
laws
was
required
to
meet
LEED
Silver
standard,
so,
for
example,
Severna
Park,
High,
School,
Crofton,
High,
School,
Lothian,
Delta,
rolling
knowles
all
met
the
LEED
Silver
requirement.
V
The
new
language
of
the
new
law
is
being
developed
now,
I've
seen
it
briefly.
It
will
obviously
we'll
be
studying
it
more,
but
it's
going
to
allow
more
flexibility
to
use
other
rating
systems,
not
just
lead
for
evaluating
our
evaluating
our
schools,
but
note
whether
it's
a
LEED
building
or
not.
We
strive
to
make
it
as
LEED
like
as
we
can,
and
the
energy
codes
themselves
almost
force
that
issue
to
some
extent.
Wonderful.
M
V
B
So
my
next
question
is
under
sustainability,
which
again
has
always
been
a
passion.
I,
wonder
if
there's
been
any
movement
towards
adding
additional
solar
geo,
solar
or
geothermal
systems
on
new
school
properties,
because
these
things
pay
for
themselves
and
there's
certainly
groups
out
there.
That
would
jump
at
the
opportunity
to
install
such
items.
Sometimes
at
zero
cost
to
us
and
you
know,
I
have
and
then
we
reap
the
benefits
so
I'm
wondering
if
we're
there's
a
move
towards
that.
So.
V
The
solar
issue,
the
challenges
with
solar,
are
our
sights
are
sometimes
limited.
So,
for
example,
we
have
a
soul,
I,
don't
know
if
you're
familiar
with
the
solar
field,
we
have
out
at
Fort
small
with
the
abilities,
so
the
challenge
on
a
school
site
would
be
how
we
could
we
really
can't
give
up
that
much
site
on
a
school
site,
typically
to
provide
for
solar
panels.
V
B
Definitely
love
to
see
any
if
it's
at
all
possible.
I
know
that
some
of
our
ribs
are
flat
and
I'm,
not
an
architect.
Nowhere
near
I,
just
just
love
watching
any
show
about
green
building
period,
but
if
there's
a
way
to
do
it,
I
would
definitely
encourage
and
fully
support
it.
Any
anything
that
could
have
been
with
regard
to
solar,
solar
and
geocell,
or
specifically,
you
know
we
have
so
many
Sundays
a
year
to
see
those
things
roll
backwards
to
see
us
being
able
to
free
up.
B
You
know
millions
of
dollars
that
we
would
otherwise
pay
out
and
an
energy
cost
I
think
would
be
beautiful
and
I
know
that
sometimes
we
have
snow
and
I
know
that
might
be
a
limiting
factor,
but
if
other
school
districts
can
do
this
elsewhere,
what
in
the
snow
your
conditions,
I
would
just
I
would
just
love
to
see
it.
So
it's
my
little
two
cents
I'll
get
off
my
soapbox
now
and
go
back
to
my
questions.
We.
B
And
perhaps
our
our
energy
company
constellation
might
have
some
ideas
with
that
with
that
too
so
yay
go
sustainability.
I
have
more
questions,
though,
on
page
7,
at
the
top
it
talks
about
windows
and
operable
windows.
Under
what
set
of
circumstances
would
windows
not
be
able
to
be
operable?
Is
it?
Is
it
risk
of
falling
from
from
height,
or
is
it
what
are
the
weather?
The
limiting
factors.
V
B
L
D
B
V
B
B
Okay,
I
think
I'm.
Getting
to
my
last
question
so
I
appreciate
all
my
colleagues
for
like
going
through
this
lengthy
back
and
forth
yeah.
They
all
have
to
do
with
projections
and
enrollment
on
all
three
schools.
Actually,
so
the
first
one
is
under
quarter
field,
the
actual
2018
numbers
for
kindergarten
is
83,
and
this
is
on
page
three
of
that
second
part.
So
what
if
I'm
on
so
the
current
kindergarten,
almost
83,
but
next
year's
first
grade
enrollment
is
70.
That's
a
delta
of
13!
How?
How
did
that?
Why
is
it
dropping
so.
O
Kyle
roof
supervisor
playing
design
and
construction,
so
projections
are
based
on
the
educational
master
plan
that
was
published
last
year.
The
actual
enrollments
are
taken
from
this
September
30th
of
this
past
school
year.
That's
how
we
get
to
pick
the
day
that
we
select
for
actual
enrollments
all
right.
The
projections
are
based,
are
continually
updated
and
right
now
we're
updating
the
current
master
plan
that
will
be
provided
to
you
and
I.
Think.
The
second
meeting
in
June,
okay,.
B
Numbers
will
be
updated
soon.
In
all
likelihood,
you
know
buying
moves
that
number
for
next
year's
for
2019
2020
s
first
grade
would
be
closer
to
83
than
it
would
be
to
70.
Okay,
that's
my
same
question
with
Pilsner
and
rippling:
woods,
yes,
and
and
and
both
the
same
for
actual
enrollment
on
I-
think
this
one
tells
me
I'm
not
mistaken.
Yes,
sir,
this
on
page
three,
the
actual
kindergarten
this
year
72,
but
then
the
first
grade
is
47
and
then
for
rippling
woods,
the
actual
kindergarten.
B
P
D
R
B
J
V
Curious,
yes,
we
have
actually
we've
done
some
minor
adjustments
just
this
go-around,
because
we
used
to
hat
call
for
a
linear
footage
of
it
was
a
bank.
It
was
1,100,
linear
feet
of
shelving
in
an
elementary
school,
including
all
the
deep
shelving,
and
that
number
has
been
reduced
over
the
last
few
years.
V
Obviously
there
there
are
fewer
books
in
the
media
center
using
the
media
centers
very
differently,
so
we
still
have
to
allow
for
I
think
we
allow
for
850
linear
feet
of
shelving
and
we
still
have
to
allow
for
two
teaching
spaces
in
the
media
center
for
most
of
our
schools,
because
most
of
schools,
the
larger
schools,
have
more
than
one
full-time
media
specialist.
So,
yes,
the
answer
is
yes,
we
have
reduced
the
media
center.
Thank.
J
J
A
G
Just
most
of
our
trends
have
been
going
up
and
I
know
in
some
areas:
they're
not,
and
so
we're
just
to
make
sure
I'm.
Reading
this
correctly
we're
gonna
be
doing
we're
gonna
be
our
are
SRC
is
going
to
be
reduced
in
Hills
mayor,
correct,
that's,
correct,
okay,
we're
giving
them
the
extra
the
the
flex
that
the
next
service
to
be
us
way.
So
that's
pretty
cool.
G
F
So,
just
looking
at
the
steps
for
the
project,
so
these
are
the
ED
specs
and
next
step
will
be
the
feasibility
study
feasibility
study
and
then
at
that
point
and
that's
when
we,
when
the
determination
is
made
for
relation
modernization
or
replacement
correct,
then
that
will
come
before
us
at
that
time.
Yes,
and
how
long
does
the
feasibility
study
usually
take
when
we
should?
We
expect
to
see
that
again,
I.
B
It's
the
instrumental
music
page
and
I
really
did
take
a
lot
of
time
and
read
every
word
of
all
three,
and
this
page
only
is
the
only
one
that
makes
reference
to
a
specific
vendor
the
ultra
store
and
then
I
googled
it
and
looked
at
their
stuff
and
I
was
interested
in
so
I
wonder
why?
Why
we're
referring
to
a
specific
vendor,
or
are
we
saying
something
like
weird.
V
Ass,
it's
a
bit
of
a
band-aid
situation.
Yes,
it's
it's
wanger
ultra
store
between
if
they
are
made
by
comparable
products
can
be
provided
by
other
vendors
such
as
Doron,
and
so
it
would
become
competitively
good
during
the
bidding
process.
Okay,.
B
V
B
So
we're
not
when
I'm,
showing
preference
we're
just
saying
something
that
looks
like
X,
correct
and
then
my
last
question
is
which
one
is
this
rippling
woods
page
two
of
the
map,
so
it
shows
rippling
winds,
elementary
school
kind
of
north
west,
but
then
directly
south.
What
are
all
these
other
buildings?
That's.
V
B
C
You
so
back
to
the
ABA
standards,
as
we
know,
in
federal
land
every
ten
years,
so
standards
will
change,
whether
it's
minimal
or
or
a
huge,
so
we're
looking
at.
If
we,
the
last
standards
were
from
20
2010
in
2010,
there's
a
likely
chance
in
2020
we'll
have
new
standards.
I
wanted
to
understand
the
flexibility
on
those
standards.
Once
is
this
in
in
in
consideration
of
these
specifications?
How
much
flexibility
do
we
have
to
change
the.
V
2010
standard,
what
we
call
the
2010
standards
actually
didn't
go
into
effect
until
several
years
ago,
so
they
even
though
they're
called
2010.
They
came
effective
at
a
later
date,
so
we
we
will
always
be
fought
at
the
point
of
design.
We
will
be
following
the
latest
and
most
current
ABA
standards
should
they
change
before
then
Thank.
A
A
F
Want
to
say
for
all
these
I've
visited
all
of
these
schools,
they
all
desperately
need.
You
know
they've
been
waiting
patiently
through
the
MGT
study,
but
they
are
all
in
great
need
and
it's
very
exciting
to
see
us
moving
forward.
This
and
I
know
I
I
see
some
Hills
mere
parents
back
there
that
are
agreeing
with
me
and
having
them.
H
Had
a
genuine
a
general
question,
so
I
know
at
many
of
these
schools
like
I'd
visited
house
mayor
as
well,
and
just
when
I
remember
high
school
got
renovated.
There
was
a
lot
of
like
historical
artwork
in
the
schools
and
I
know.
If
I'm
correct
here's
house
mayor
has
like
a
huge
mural
on
one
of
the
walls
and
I
know
it's
not
in
an
educational
specification,
but
is
there
ever
like
I'm
transfer
to
restore
that
historical
art
that
students
do
to
bring
it
over
to
the
new
schools,
or
is
that
not
common
practice?
Yes,.
V
Actually,
we
do
that
a
lot
of
our
schools,
thinking
back
to
Annapolis
Elementary,
they
brought
their
stained-glass
over
and
I.
Believe
Arnold
may
be
doing
that
with
they're
doing
that
for
tile
wall.
So
once
the
design
process
starts
the
architects
there
will
be
a
committee
formed
and
the
architects
will
it'll
be
brought
on
board
they'll
get
an
understanding
of
the
building
and
they
will
understand
what's
important
at
school
and
and
by
extension
to
that
community.
So
those.
V
V
A
D
A
A
H
A
D
A
A
Thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much
and
thank
you.
Everyone
will
now
move
to
review
items.
Items
6.01
is
the
county
executive
is
recommended,
FY,
2020,
operating
and
capital
budgets.
This
is
a
review
item,
but
there
is
a
staff
presentation
on
this
and
we've
got
mr.
chef
Novick.
Mr.
Stan's,
please
welcome
back
switching
chairs
office.
Q
So
good
evening
for
the
record
I'll
check
now
as
chief
operating
officer,
let
us
introduce
ourselves
for
the
record
good.
Q
So
this
is
step
one
of
a
45
day
long
process,
we'll
begin
by
reviewing
the
operating
budget
first,
it
is
the
one
that
does
not
colored
red,
white
and
blue.
So,
as
always,
we'll
review
the
revenue
first,
essentially
you'll
you'll,
see
things
that
are
highlighted
in
yellow
is
a
change
of
condition.
So
essentially
that
denotes
a
alteration
from
what
the
board
of
education
requested
for
FY
2010
executive.
So
we'll
work
through
the
revenue
elements
first
and
we'll
go
to
the
expenditure
side.
Q
Q
That
is
the
figure
that
we
were
provided
by
MSDE,
that
is,
the
pre
kerlun
number,
since
the
Kirwan
of
houses
senate
related
bills
have
passed,
the
county
has
elected
to
essentially
recognize
the
potential
of
that
revenue
in
terms
of
the
unrestricted
side
it's
about
13
million
dollars,
so
they
added
about
13
million
dollars
to
the
original
17.7
number
to
get
you
to
30
0.8
number
and
have
some
comments
about
that.
Shortly.
On
the
county
side,
the
Board
of
Education
asked
for
about
sixty
five
point:
two
million
dollars
an
Account
Executive
is
recommending
forty
six
point.
Q
Two
million
dollars
worth
of
funding
they,
the
county
executives,
concurred
with
our
local
and
fund
balance.
Figures
in
terms
of
the
restricted
number
you'll
see
that
there
is
a
change
of
about
497,
498
thousand
dollars,
and
that
is
again
due
to
an
increase
in
restricted
funding,
also
associated
with
the
Kerwin
bill.
So
the
county
executives
recommendation
recognizes
the
potential
of
us
receiving
the
CRO
in
funding.
They
concurred
with
our
health
care,
internal
service
fund
and
a
Food
Services
special
Revenue
Fund.
So
all
in
all
the
Board
of
Education
asks
for
about
a
ninety.
Q
Two
point:
seven
million
dollar
year-over-year
increase
from
all
sources,
restricted
and
unrestricted,
and
about
eighty
seven
point,
two
million
dollars
of
that
is
being
recommended
for
funding.
That's
about.
Ninety
four
percent
of
the
total
revenue
asked
is
being
recommended
for
funding.
I
will
make
a
few
comments,
though,
about
the
current
funding.
As
you
know,
the
blueprint
for
Maryland
excellence
was
adopted
by
the
General
Assembly
here
in
the
waning
days
of
the
General
Assembly
session.
Q
However,
a
large
component
of
those
dollars
is,
while
it
is
designated
for
the
purpose
and
distribution
is
outlined
in
a
bill
that
is
at
the
discretion
of
the
governor
to
date.
To
the
best
of
our
knowledge,
governor
has
not
either
acknowledged
whether
the
funding
will
be
released
to
what
extent
it
will
be
released
or
what
schedule
that
will
be
released
on
so
both
us
in
the
county
or
eagerly
awaiting
a
possible
answer
that
question.
Q
We
are
in
constant
communication
with
each
other,
as
well
as
our
partners
at
state
government
and
when
we
know,
though,
know
when
don't
know
we'll
know,
and
we
will
certainly
let
you
know,
but
again
about
thirteen
and
a
half
million
dollars
of
this.
Eighty
seven
point:
two
million
is
directly
to
the
decision
of
the
governor
of
the
state
of
Maryland.
Going
down
to
the
expense
side,
then
the
compensation
pieces,
Account
Executive,
is
recommending
fully
funding
all
the
compensation
elements.
Q
The
second
half
of
2019
mid-year
compensation
increase
the
raise
of
the
twenty
five
to
thirty
dollar
an
hour,
stipend
pay,
the
FY
2010
and
then
the
FY
2010
and
2011
catch-up
steps.
So
you'll
notice
again,
there's
an
exact
match
between
what
was
requested
in
the
board
of
education,
x',
officially
adopted
budget
request
and
what
the
county
executive
is
recommending
to
the
county
council.
The
next
three
items
again
are
an
exact
match
that
being
the
contract
in
charter
school
PPE,
increased,
the
fiber
ring
expansion
and
mr.
Gill,
and
you
had
asked
about
the
food
trace.
Q
You'll
see
the
four
hundred
four
hundred
eighty
three
thousand
two
hundred
dollars
worth
of
revenues:
food
services,
organic
based
meal
trays
that
account
executive
is
in
fact
recommending
the
incremental
revenue
to
neutralize
the
cost
elements
of
that
going
down
the
list.
Then
the
county
executive
recommendation
aligns
with
the
board's
request
in
terms
of
assistant
principals
by
limo
facilitators,
board
comments
or
drummer
compensation.
Q
Q
As
you
recall,
the
computer
science
teacher
specialist
was
an
amendment.
The
board
cut
the
computer
science
teacher
specialists
out
of
the
budget
and
because
the
board
cut
it
out,
that
cannot
be
funded
because
the
county
can't
fund
above
the
board's
request.
So
that
is
a
zero.
The
county
executives
recommend
in
full
funding
of
the
start-up
funding
for
it
across
the
area.
High
school
eight
and
a
half
positions
in
the
English
English
language
acquisition
category,
the
Board
of
Education
had
asked
for
28
teachers
and
30
bilingual
assistance
that
totals
241
FTEs.
Q
Q
I'll
work
this
one
a
little
by
groupings.
The
county
executive
is
recommending
full
funding
for
the
establishment
of
the
Triple
E
programs
within
the
broad
neck
and
glen
burnie
cluster.
So
that
is
an
exact
match.
For
those
two.
However,
the
account
executive
is
not
recommending
funding
for
Arundel
oval,
Severna,
Park
and
South
River.
At
this
juncture,
the
county
executives
budget
can
contains
a
recommendation
for
the
equity
and
accelerated
student
achievement
specialists,
the
one
position,
but
not
for
the
$40,000
of
addition,
supplemental
matures
of
instruction
and
PD
that
was
introduced
by
the
Board
of
Education
amendment.
Q
The
count
executives
budget
does
not
include
funding
for
the
Robotics
Club,
the
human
resource,
the
net
zeroes,
the
to
associative
with
human
resources,
the
Becker,
an
investigative
assistant
and
a
benefit
assistant
are
both
recommended
for
funding
after
18
I
believe
18
long
years.
The
county
executives
concurred
with
increasing
the
substitute
daily
rate
of
pay
by
$10
an
hour
for
both
our
long
and
short-term
subs.
That
is
fully
funded,
as
are
the
two
internship
teachers
the
county
went
executive,
went
along
with
the
board's
proposed
cut
to
contracted
services
in
the
maintenance
department,
the
county
executive.
Q
This
budget
does
not
include
the
additional
$6,000
for
the
MS
ve
office
advertising.
However,
they
indicated
that
the
through
the
Office
of
Economic
Development,
they
are
ramping
up
in
a
rather
large
way,
their
outreach
to
the
MS
ve
and
veteran
business
community,
and
they
want
to
partner
with
the
school
district
in
those
efforts.
So,
while
the
funding
is
not
there
I
believe
through
leveraging
the
resources
of
the
County
government,
we
can
certainly
arrive
at
the
desired
intent
of
the
Board
of
Education
become
executives.
Q
Budget
does
include
full
support
for
the
operation
staffing,
as
well
as
the
NetZero
positions
for
outdoor
IDI,
Studio,
39,
professional
growth
and
development,
and
the
0.6
funding
for
the
specialists
for
professional
growth
and
development
is
fully
supported.
There
are
some
differences
in
the
next
few
items
and
I'll
be
careful
to
address
those.
The
Board
of
Education
spud
you've
requested
a
total
of
eight
psychologists
and
six
social
workers.
The
county
executives
budget
has
a
recommendation
of
12
FTEs,
six
psychologists
and
six
social
workers.
Q
So
six
and
six
instead
of
eight
and
six,
the
Board
of
Education
budget
request,
was
for
3p.
Pw's
1.0
are
included
in
the
county
executives
recommendation
in
an
area
of
school
counseling,
the
Board
of
Education
that
asks
for
18
total
school
counselors,
14
of
which
are
included
in
the
county
executives
recommendation.
Q
The
next
couple
are
fully
funded
at
the
county
executives
recommendation
that
being
the
interpretation,
translation
technician
to
social
studies,
resource
technician
in
the
areas
of
special
ed.
The
bilingual
student
student
assessment
team
is
recommended
for
full
funding
birth
to
21
special
ed
programs,
staffing.
There
is
a
difference.
The
board
of
education
budget
had
requested
38.9
positions.
Q
29.9
positions
are
included
in
the
county
executives
request.
The
remaining
special
education
elements
are
recommended
for
full
funding,
that
being
the
non-public
placements,
especially
state
staffing,
as
well
as
tangentially
the
504
facilitators
within
our
student
services.
Category
remember:
class
size
reduction
is
sort
of
looking
in
the
rearview
mirror
right.
So
that's
looking
to
make
inroads
to
our
pre-existing
school
schools
and
classes.
Didn't
teach
ratios
that
are
next
of
our
recommended
guidelines.
Q
The
Board
of
Education
had
requested
124
positions
to
make
inroads
into
that
one
hundred
nine
point:
five
of
them
are
funded
in
this
county
executives.
Recommendation
in
terms
of
teachers
for
enrollment
growth,
general
educators
are
fully
funded,
Elementary
readings,
fully
funded
instrumental
music,
fully
funded
in
the
area
of
general
music.
The
Board
of
Education
had
asked
for
four
positions:
one
of
those
is
funded
and
finally,
the
21st
century
century.
Digital
learning
initiative,
seven
positions
and
the
associated
infrastructure
and
other
associated
costs
are
recommend
to
be
fully
funded.
Q
So
on
the
unrestricted
side,
the
Board
of
Education
had
asked
for
three
hundred.
Seventy
seven
point:
six
FTEs
and
a
total
of
eighty
four
point:
six
million
dollars
the
county
executive
is
recommended
funding
a
funding
amount
of
three
hundred
fourteen
point,
one
FTEs
and
seventy
eight
point:
six
million
dollars
absent
the
additional
four
hundred;
ninety
seven
million
dollars
in
additional
state
funding
through
the
Kirwan
plan
and
restricted
all
of
the
restricted
dollars
match
at
the
bottom
line.
Q
The
board
asked
for
approximately
ninety
two
point:
seven
million
dollars
at
seven
point:
eight:
three
percent
year-over-year
increase
the
county
executives
recommendation
contains
a
increased
budget
amount
sufficient
in
terms
of
appropriation
authority
to
them
at
the
eighty
seven
point:
two
million
dollars
or
a
seven
point:
three
seven
percent
year-over-year
increase,
and
with
that
we
will
pause
to
take
any
questions
that
you
and
your
colleagues
may
have.
Mr.
president,
okay.
F
F
Q
Begin
with
the
county
government
will
have
to
make
an
initial
decision
on
that,
but
we
will
not
have
the
appropriation
Authority
for
it.
We
cannot.
We
have
to
have
a
balanced
budget.
We
have
to
have
appropriation
Authority
for
all
of
our
revenues
and
to
be
able
to
expend
those.
So
if
the
county
doesn't
do
it,
we're
gonna
have
to
do
it.
We
certainly
cannot
overspend.
So
while,
while
the
legislation
contemplates
the
money
arriving,
unless
the
funds
can
be
certified
as
being
avail
appropriated
and
available,
we
cannot
access
them
so.
Q
F
Q
F
A
Q
F
I'm
putting
out
there
somewhat,
if
so,
if
we
had
to
adjust
this
back
so,
for
instance,
we'd
say
we
cannot
hire
this
many
people,
because
the
30
million
is
not
there,
but
if
the
money
is
released
later
on,
we
could,
with
the
supplemental
budget,
request
open
up
those
positions,
then
to
hire
at
that
time.
Is
that
correct,
correct.
Q
So
the
the
car,
when
the
Kirwan
dollars
are
essentially
bucket
eyes
in
different
categories-
very
prescriptively,
yes,
within
the
state
bill,
those
dollars
have
been
very
prescriptive,
ly
built
into
this
budget
on
the
input
side.
Should
they
not
materialize?
We
know
exactly
what
needs
to
be
taken
out
again,
because
it's
very
prescriptive
nature,
so
we'll
we'll
know
to
a
high
degree,
a
specificity.
What
we
cannot
do,
then?
F
A
F
C
D
C
It
cover
got
covered
so
with
that
I
will
thank
you
all
most,
certainly
and
thank
the
county
executive
and
his
team
as
well.
This
was
this
was
definitely
generous
and
I
want
to
tell
the
council
members
stand
by
cuz.
We're
will
be
working
with
you
in
the
future
as
well,
and
we
think-
and
we
certainly
thank
all
of
you
for
your
support.
Thank.
B
D
B
H
Also
want
to
say
thank
you
to
the
County
Executive
if
you're
watching,
but
I
want
to
be
the
Debbie
Downer
a
little
bit,
I'm
very
disappointed
in
the
fact
that
the
psychologists,
the
people
personnel
workers,
as
long
as
this,
along
with
the
school
psychologists,
were
not
fully
funded,
I
know
that
they
were
majority
funded,
but
I
just
feel
like
this
past
year's
push.
It
was
very
much
on
the
mental
health
side,
along
with
the
teacher
class
size
reduction.
H
I
Unfortunately,
you
weren't
able
to
join
us
because
you
had
a
thing
called
school
this
morning,
so
you
were
in
class,
but
I
will
say
that
in
the
county
executives
remarks
he
did
make
a
remark
that
he
didn't.
It
was
a.
He
felt
unfortunate
that
he
wasn't
able
to
fully
fund
those
mental
health
needs,
but
he
did
physically
turn
to
the
County
Council
and
said
I
would
welcome
you
to
raise
that
number.
I
D
M
I
Q
Q
A
F
A
lot
of
this
is
that
they
were
able
to
share
the
story
and
put
it
out
there
that
this
is
funded
as
well
as
it
is
because
they
were
able
to
go
through
and
justify
every
line
in
here,
and
so
I
just
want
to
say
again
that
the
staff
and
dr.
Otto
did
an
amazing
job
defending
this,
supporting
this
encouraging
this
and
getting
it
for
the
state
that
we
have.
So.
Thank
you
to
all
of
you.
F
A
You
so
I
I
see
no
further
questions
on
the
operating
budget
and
and
then
what
I'll
do
it
if
we
do
offer,
as
we
offer
public
comment,
we'll
just
do
the
presentation
on
the
Capitol
answer
board
questions
on
that
and
then
I'll
offer
the
opportunity
for
any
public
comment
at
that
point.
So
we'll
shift
to
the
Capitol.
Q
Blue
exhibit
customarily
so
you'll
see
in
the
white
text
box.
In
the
far
left-hand
side,
the
Board
of
Education
total
budget
capital
budget
recommendation
was
100.
Seventy
two
point:
two
million
an
account
executive
is
recommended
funding
of
one
hundred
sixty
five
point:
1
million
again
well
into
the
mid
90%
range
in
terms
of
overall
funding.
The
all
of
the
items
that
are
banded
in
a
white
colored
font
are
fully
funded
so,
for
example,
in
health
and
safety,
we
asked
for
one
and
a
half
million
one
and
a
half
million
as
the
recommendation.
Q
Q
To
point
almost
two
point:
twenty
two
point:
four
million
dollars
was
to
request
twenty
one
point:
five
million
dollars
is
the
funding
level
and
we
can
go
through
some
of
these,
so
in
that
one
one
of
the
roofing
projects
that
we
had
was
deferred
for
availability
of
funding
at
the
state
level.
So
this
is
really
not
a
cut
per
se.
Q
From
the
part
of
the
county,
so
one
of
our
projects,
because
of
spending
affordability,
was
deferred
by
the
state,
so
the
county
did
not
recognize
the
state
revenue
because
we
won't
have
it
and
the
equivalent
County
matching
funding
for
that
project.
So,
essentially
it's
just
been
pushed
out.
One
one
year
maintenance
backlog
reduction.
We
asked
for
seven
million
dollars.
Five
million
dollars
is
the
funding
recommendation
again.
That's
a
spending
affordability
issue,
as
is
roof
replacements,
relocatable
classrooms.
We
do
not
anticipate
so
a
we
have
some
funding
remaining
from
the
current
year.
Q
We
don't
anticipate
as
higher
request
level
in
the
year
ahead.
We've
actually
been
reducing
our
amount
of
portable
or
relocatable
classrooms.
We
have
here
across
the
county,
thankfully
said
that
does
not
cause
us
any
pause.
Asbestos
is
fully
funded.
Berry.
Free
access
has
been
reduced
by
two
hundred
thousand
dollars.
We
actually
have
prior
year,
so
capital
funding,
all
those
line
and
I'm
appropriated,
unlike
an
operating
budget,
doesn't
expire
so
dollars
you
have
from
prior
years
can
roll
forward.
So
we
have
some
prior
funding
that
will
cover
the
gap.
Q
It's
not
going
to
cause
the
cancellation
of
any
projects.
School
bus
replacements,
so
our
school
bus
replacement,
remember,
we
have
to
replace
the
buses
every
12
years.
Our
bicycle
is
a
little
bit
lumpy
per
se,
but
we
know
we
have
to
replace
him
in
the
12th
year.
We
did
not.
We
would
not
have
buses
expiring
in
that
fiscal
year.
Q
If
we
had,
if
we
bought
them,
we
would
be
having
buses
that
we
would
have
to
retire
prematurely
with
one
year
left
one
less
year
of
life
on
them,
so
we
will
not
be
receiving
the
$800,000
this
year,
but
next
year
we're
essentially
gonna
have
to
have
double
that,
and
the
county
understands
that.
So
it's
simply
a
cash
flow
issue
that
doesn't
cause
us
any
concern.
Q
All
of
the
next
projects
are
fully
funded
from
additions
down
to
all
our
major
construction
projects
from
Oh
Edgewater,
Tyler
return,
early
Crofton
area,
the
feasible
feasibility
study,
funding
for
quarter
field,
hills,
mirror
and
rippling
is
fully
funded,
as
is
full
funding
for
the
design
of
the
new
Old
Mill
West
High
School,
the
hell
through
modifications,
there's
a
modest
decrease
again.
That
does
not
cause
us
any
concern,
because
we
have
some
prior
year
funding
that
we
can
continue
on
with
those
projects.
Q
The
next
series
of
line
items
were
fully
funded,
as
you
can
see
from
priority
number
22
down
to
27,
and
there
is
a
very
modest
$100,000
cut
to
the
athletic
Stadium
improvement
category
again.
That
would
not
preclude
us
from
discharging
the
projects
that
we
had
intended
to
do
in
the
current
year.
So
overall,
as
I
said
earlier
in
terms
of
direct
support
of
the
Board
of
Education,
we
had
asked
471
and
just
over
point
nine
million
dollars.
Q
One
hundred
sixty
four
point:
eight
million
dollars
is
the
funding
recommendation
and
then,
through
our
collaborative
efforts
with
the
Department
of
Public
Works,
an
additional
two
hundred
fifty
thousand
dollars
that
the
Board
of
Education
request
has
been
put
into
dPW's
budget
for
them
to
continue
to
assist
us
by
constructing
sidewalks
off
away
from
our
premises,
so
not
on
our
property
to
continue
to
aid
and
assist
our
students
to
safely
and
appropriately
walk
to
school.
But
again
in
terms
of
a
percentage
of
funding.
E
Q
L
Q
Know
more
now
that
we
did
back,
then
we
know
how
much
money
we
have
left
over
from
prior
years
that
we
can
roll
forward.
We
send
out
a
memo
each
and
every
year
to
the
schools
asking
how
many
relocatable
did
he
have
did
he
need
them
still,
then
you
need
more,
they
do
need
less
etcetera,
so
we've
got
real
data
now,
so
we
typically
asked
for
one
and
a
half
million
dollars.
If
you
take
a
look
at
a
six-year
plan,
you'll
see
that
is
a
flat
line.
Q
Number
that's
sort
of
like
our
ongoing
year
over
your
ask,
and
then
we
don't
want
to
obligate
or
take
money
from
the
county
for
things
that
we
essentially
couldn't
make
beneficial
use
of,
and
sometimes
that
helps
us.
So
if
we
ask
for
an
additional
half
million
here,
that
may
be
half
a
million
less.
That
will
get
one
of
our
other
projects,
but
again
we
partner
with
the
county.
If
we
don't
need
two
half
million,
they
can
put
it
into
a
bridge,
a
fire
station,
a
police
station,
whatever
the
county
needs.
Q
So
we
work
very
collaboratively
with
the
with
the
county
government
and
ask
only
what
we
need
and
on
our
projects
that
we
complete
when
we
have
monies
left
over
on
any
of
the
line
item
projects
we
actually
have
to,
and
we
do
gladly
turn
that
money
back
over
to
the
county
so
that
they
can
repurpose
it
into
either
other
of
our
projects
or
other
projects
that
the
county
might
have
going.
So.
Q
E
D
E
D
A
O
A
Q
A
property
tax
side
in
the
income
tax
side
we
have
fairly
regimented
capital
debt,
affordability
levels
and
those
are
mathematically
tied
to
a
number
of
indices,
clearly,
revenues
that
support
the
debt
service
or
in
colloquial
terms
the
mortgage
payment
on
the
general
obligation
bonds.
So
this
funding
level
is
I
suspect
to
some
extent
predicated
on
the
revenue
elements
coming
to
fruition.
If
that
doesn't
come
to
fruition,
then
both
on
the
operating
and
capital
budget
side
I
would
suspect
there
would
likely
be
a
need
for
some
adjustments.
Okay,.
B
So
I
understand
what
that
okay.
Thank
you
a
question
about
old
mill.
So
there
was
some
some
things
that
came
out
in
the
transition
report
and
then
what
I
the
plan
that
I
thought
we
were
more
likely
to
support,
and
so,
when
it
says
old
mill,
West,
High,
School
I
assume
that
the
county
executive
is
still
in
support
of
a
to
school
solution
for
that
project.
Yes,.
Q
Q
So
he
and
his
team
reviewed
that
study
and
he
personally
toured
Old
Mill,
Senior,
High,
School's
old,
middle
school
South
to
put
his
own
eyes
on
the
situation,
and
today
he
acknowledged
that
he
believes
that
the
processes
and
the
work
plan
it's
outlined
in
the
viability
study
is
the
one
that
he
supports.
So
he
does
support
two
separate
high
schools
to
separate
middle
school,
the
cat,
north
relocation
and
then
the
two
elementary
schools
that
are
part
of
the
plan.
Perfect.
B
Yeah
I
I
was
listening
from
home.
I
regret
that
I
wasn't
able
to
be
there.
I
was
nursing
a
bad
back
this
morning
and
I
did
hear
that,
but
I
wanted
to
get
confirmation
from
you
that
sounded
like
what
I
sounded
like
that's
what
I
heard,
but
thank
you
for
confirming
it
and
thank
you
again
to
the
county
executive
who
may
or
may
not
be
watching
out
there.
Thank
you
so
much
for
this,
for
your
proposed
budget
and
for
funding
us
to
this
level.
Thanks.
F
Just
want
to
piggyback
on
that
about
almond,
west
I
was
encouraged
by
the
county
executive,
stressing
that
he
agreed
with
our
plan
I'm
grateful
that
he
went
out
and
saw
Old
Mill
with
his
own
eyes.
I
think
anybody
that
goes
in
that
building
and
sees
it
with
our
own
eyes
says.
Yes,
this
needs
to
be
replaced
as
quickly
as
we
can
be.
F
I
was
also
very
encouraged
and
appreciative
that
he
that
he
said
very
clearly
that
he
supports
the
NGT
study
that
we've
done
to
prioritize
our
buildings,
so
that
you
know
certain
things
can't
be
moved
around.
You
know,
for
political
reasons
or
whatever,
that
we
are
truly
trying
to
look
at
the
greatest
needs
of
the
school
system
based
on
a
prioritization
thing
and
that
that's
a
system
that
was
put
in
place
more
than
a
decade
ago,
with
agreement
from
county
executive,
county
council
and
school
board.
G
Yet
major
kudos
I
know
you
guys
do
spend
a
boatload
of
time
because
remember
they're,
not
just
presenting
to
the
County
Executive
they've
got
a
planning
advisory
board,
and
then
they
have
to
roll
right
back
around
again
to
the
council,
so
you
guys
are
definitely
doing
double-duty
much
appreciate
it.
I
just
wanted
a
little
bit
more
clarification
on
the
secure
the
related
upgrades
that
concerns
me,
because
we
were
trying
to
be
as
aggressive
as
possible
to
get
our
schools
as
stable
as
possible
and
a
lot
of
these
numb.
G
Q
So
if
you
remember
back
in
April,
April
of
2018
County
Executive
Shue
made
an
announcement
an
hour
and
appleĆs
High
School
that
he
was
going
to
put
five
million
dollars
into
security
in
the
current
fiscal
year
and
five
billion
in
the
upcoming
year.
So
this
carries
that
through
additionally,
the
governor
created
a
grant
at
the
state
level
for
state
funding
and
that
that
grant
essentially
is
just
under
a
million
dollars.
So.
Q
G
Q
G
G
Q
Q
In
the
out-years,
but
due
to
price
escalation
within
the
roofing
business
of
roofing,
the
roofing
category
of
work
is
one
of
our
most
rapid
price
escalation.
Areas
and
prices
have
grown
disproportionately
in
that
section
of
the
construction
realm
versus
other
like
carpentry,
and
you
know,
flooring,
ceiling,
etc.
So
we
elected,
we
made
a
recommendation
with
the
superintendent
support
and
a
sward
support
to
increase
our
annual
ask
from
two
million
to
three
billion
correct.
Q
G
Basically,
we're
gonna
be
doing
without
as
many
projects
schools
will
be
able
to
get
to
right,
just
because
of
the
escalation,
but
now
I
understand
how
that
goes
with
the
carry
overs
year
to
year,
which
is
why
I
requested
the
playground
equipment
addition.
As
a
matter
of
fact,
thank
you
guys
so
very
much
greatly
appreciated.
That
was
a
that
was
my
only
question,
sir.
Thank.
A
A
You
and
I
know
it
is,
but
you
know
yesterday
with
UNC,
you
know
one
of
the
campuses
they're
having
you
know
yet.
Another
tragedy,
granite
I,
know
it's
higher
ed,
but
it's
still,
you
know
the
education
space
and
its
students-
and
you
know
that's
certainly
near
and
dear
to
me
so
I
appreciate
both
sides
of
that
mister
live
I.
J
Just
like
to
offer
a
little
longer
term
historical
perspective
to
both
the
operating
and
capital
budgets
that
run
veiled
and
presented
to
us,
the
Board
of
Education
today,
having
been
associated
with
the
school
system
for
25
years
plus
having
built
budgets,
defended
budgets,
begged
for
budgets,
both
sides
on
the
staff
side,
the
board
side
and
the
county
government
side.
This
really
is
a
historic
day.
J
We
haven't
seen
support
for
public
education
and
Anne
Arundel
County
and
this
magnitude
in
my
25
years.
A
very
appreciative
of
it.
I've
grandchildren
are
about
to
come
back
to
this
county
in
the
end
of
the
summer,
they'll
be
in
our
public
schools
and,
as
I've
talked
with
doctor
a
lot
oh
and
some
of
you
in
the
past.
You
know
these
resources
really
come
to
fruition.
Then
the
onus
is
on
us.
J
A
Thank
You
mr.
live
and
I
think
that's
very
well
said,
and
I
would
just
say
you
know.
Certainly
I
agree
with
you
100%
on
our
responsibility
now
to
be
good
stewards
of
the
taxpayer
dollars
as
they
flow
here.
That
looks
like
the
end
of
our
board
questions.
Is
there
any
public
comment
on
either
the
operating
or
the
capital
budget
presentations
tonight?
A
Seeing
none!
Thank
you.
So
much
and
mr.
stansky
get
some
sleep
a
little
bit
at
least
item
6.02
is
a
word
of
contracts.
It's
a
review
item.
Are
there
any
board
questions
on
this
item?
Any
public
comment
on
a
word
of
contract.
Seeing
none
the
next
General
Board
of
Education
meeting
is
on
Wednesday
May
15th
at
20
at
10:00
a.m.
again
that
that
meeting
is
being
switched
from
an
evening
meeting
to
a
daytime
meeting,
so
Wednesday
May
15th
at
10:00
a.m.
the
next
meeting
of
the
