A
H
Good
evening,
everyone
I'm
here
on
behalf
of
the
office
of
teaching
and
learning
and
the
K-5
literacy
task
force
to
present
for
tonight
a
proposal
for
adoption
of
what
wisdom
is
our
next
K-5
language,
arts
curriculum
starting
in
the
2324
school
year.
H
I
know
we've
all
seen
this
before
our
district
mission
and
vision.
I
just
want
to
point
out
that
the
work
that
we've
done,
that
the
group
has
done
over
the
last
close
to
two
years,
aligns
very
well
with
our
mission
in
that
we're
looking
to
implement
a
coordinated,
articulated
academic
program
that
is
aligned
to
PA
standards,
just
to
review
a
couple
objectives
aligned
with
our
building
blocks
of
high
achieving
schools.
H
Our
second
objective
tonight
obviously
is
to
propose
the
adoption
of
wisdom,
which
is
a
core
tier
one.
Pa
state
standards,
aligned
K5
literacy
program
that
aligns
with
building
block
five
curriculum
instruction
assessments,
aligned
with
standards
and
finally,
objective.
Number.
Three
excuse
me
to
review
assessments
to
identify
student
progress
that
aligns
with
building
block
number
six
frequent
monitoring
of
learning
and
teaching,
and
that
will
bear
itself
out.
We
look
at
some
data
that
we
collected
as
a
team
for
those
students
who
are
in
the
whiten
wisdom
cohort.
H
H
Or
the
lenses
that
the
K5
literacy
task
force
used
in
the
selection
process,
we
had
to
make
sure
that
we
were
aligned
with
the
science
of
reading.
That
is
now
a
law
in
Pennsylvania
PA,
House,
Bill
2045,
which
requires
districts
when
we
adopt
or
Implement
a
language
arts
program.
English
language
arts
program
that
is
aligned
to
the
science
of
reading
I
obviously
have
to
be
aligned
with
PA
academic
standards
align
with
the
professional
learning
that
we've
done
the
last
few
years,
with
the
aim
institute
around
structured
literacy
align
with
our
current
District
resources.
H
We
wanted
to
make
sure
that
the
any
curriculum
that
we
selected
received
all
green
ratings
on
everports,
which
is
an
unbiased
third-party
organization
which
evaluates
curricular
materials
that
are
on
the
market,
trying
to
keep
a
copyright
within
five
years
of
the
new
curriculum.
So
that
we
had
something
that
was
kind
of
fresh
and
new
and
current,
and
also
wanted
to
make
sure
that
we
chose
a
curriculum
that
also
provided
a
digital
component,
a
digital
platform,
some
electronic
component
to
it.
H
I've
got
a
couple
slides
here
of
the
timeline
and
the
process
before
I
start
with
this
and
I'm
not
going
to
read
all
of
these
to
you.
I
wanted
to
take
a
moment
and
identify
honor
the
K5
literacy
task
force.
It
was
a
group
of
over
30
people
and
included
our
elementary
school
principals.
Our
K-5
grade
shares
reading
Specialists,
special
ed
teachers,
ELD
teachers,
mtss
coordinators
or
coaches
student
services,
side
of
the
house,
Department
office,
teaching
and
learning.
H
Kelly
is
in
for
Rose
mealy
who's
on
sabbatical,
this
this
semester
and
also
Dr
Ortiz,
who
was
instrumental
to
get
this
whole
process
going
and
as
we
got
this
off
the
ground,
and
many
of
you
know,
Dr
Ortiz
is
a
former
principal
at
McDonald.
Elementary
was
then,
and
is
now
a
nationally
known,
literacy
expert.
So
thank
you.
Mr
Ortiz
I
point
of
order.
I
we
started
officially
in
September
24th
of
2021
I.
H
H
J
H
Thank
you
now,
I'm
going
to
go
through
a
few
slides
here,
I'm
not
going
to
read
these
slides
at
you,
just
some
things
to
highlight
that
we
took
care
of.
Obviously
we
formed
the
literacy
task
force
for
K5
early
on
in
December,
we
had
a
thought
exchange
that
we
sent
out
to
all
K-5
parents
a
lot
of
collaboration.
We
collaborated
with
Publishers
in
this
case
win
wisdom.
H
We
collaborated
with
other
school
districts,
you'll,
see
them
listed
here
many
times
reaching
out
and
doing
presentations
with
the
Ed
committee,
more
collaboration
here
with
amplify
Quakertown,
Community,
School,
District
collaboration
with
bookworms
and
other
publisher.
That
was
that
was
a
good
experience
talking
to
presenting
with
collaborating
with
the
parent
advisory
Council.
We
did
a
site
visit
to
Quakertown
Community
School
District,
which
was
phenomenal.
They
were
a
few
years
ahead
of
us
with
using
wisdom
as
their
K-5
language
arts
curriculum.
H
H
Last
March,
where
we
had
the
teacher
review
of
teacher
samples
over
a
few
weeks,
I
met
with
Downingtown
area
school
district,
again
more
meetings
with
the
literacy
task
force,
more
meetings
with
the
education
committee,
and
many
of
you
were
here
remember
this
last
May
is
when
we
did
an
official
presentation
and
received
your
approval.
Thank
you
to
do
a
soft
opening
or
a
soft
launch
of
win
wisdom
in
Fall
of
2022,
and
we
kicked
that
off.
Last
fall
that
included
some
training.
H
Then
two
day,
two
full
days
of
training
for
a
cohort
of
about
25
teachers
sent
parent
letters
home
for
the
students
who
are
going
to
be
in
the
cohort,
had
multiple
check-ins
and
then
I
had
a
kind
of
condense.
This
for
time.
For
so,
I
could
have
gone
to
eight
slides
here
alone,
but
we,
you
approved
an
extension
for
about
14
teachers
who
wanted
to
move
forward
with
wisdom
and
not
go
back
to
Journeys
and
continue
with
wisdom
for
the
remainder
of
the
school
year.
H
So
the
coaches
did
a
great
job
of
setting
up
check-ins
and
collaboration
schedule
with
great
support
from
our
three
Elementary
principals.
A
lot
of
collaboration
there
actually
gave
us
some
ideas
around
this.
We
did
another
parent
thought
exchange
after
the
first
trimester
when
the
the
official
soft
launch
or
soft
opening
ended
to
get
parent
feedback
also
receive
feedback
through
a
thought
exchange
from
the
teachers
who
were
part
of
that
cohort
as
well
did
a
debrief.
A
little
bit
ago,
we
had
North
Penn,
do
a
site
visit
to
see
Whit
and
wisdom
here
in
action.
H
We're
gonna
have
another
site
visit,
getting
set
up
from
Bristol
Township
who's,
considering
Whit
and
wisdom
as
well
they're
going
to
come
visit
us
as
well,
and
a
month
ago
tomorrow
we
met
with
the
Ed
committee
and
made
a
formal
presentation
to
move
this
to
the
full
board
for
to
consider
for
adoption.
H
Real
quick
again,
these
are
just
some
key
thoughts.
We
we
solicited
feedback
from
parents,
who's
children
were
in
the
whiten,
wisdom,
cohort
and
I
know.
You
have
had
time
to
preview.
This
I'm
not
going
to
read
all
of
these
comments,
but
we
received
very
positive
feedback
from
parents
and
teachers
alike.
Again
this
was
at
the
end
of
the
first
trimester,
even
though
we
knew
we
were
going
on
with
some
teachers
and
some
students
moving
on.
H
We
wanted
to
capture
parent
feedback
at
the
time
this
was
December
and
also
from
teachers
as
well
and
I'll
get
to
the
teachers.
In
a
moment.
This
is
a
very,
very
positive
feedback
from
feedback
from
parents.
Teacher
same
thing.
H
When,
when
we
finish
that
first
trimester,
what
we
wanted
to
do
is
even
though
we
had
really
good
feedback
from
the
entire
cohort,
we
wanted
to
quantify
some
feedback
so
kind
of
surveyed.
I.
Guess
the
group
also
to
receive
their
feedback.
So
we
got
consensus
from
that
group
of
teachers
and
had
a
great
conversation.
H
It
was
tail
end
of
January
I
believe
that
the
whole
group
together
still
got
really
good
feedback,
and
what
we've
been
able
to
do
is
use
some
of
the
feedback
that
the
teachers
provided
the
cohort
teachers
to
create
action,
steps
for
how
we're
going
to
move
forward
and
things
to
consider
as
we're
planning
professional
development
for
them.
What
next
year
needs
to
look
like
all
the
supports
that
the
office
teaching
and
learning
needs
to
provide
to
those
teachers
and
remember
we're
talking
about
a
group
of
22
25
teachers,
so
they
have
some
expertise
now.
H
H
Al
I-Ready
data
from
fall
to
winter,
and
we
worked
with
I
ready
to
do
that
and
we
were
able
to
do
is
capture
I
already
grow
data
in
reading
and
to
segregate
out
the
wisdom,
students
from
students
who
are
not
taking
wit,
wisdom
in
that
first
trimester
you
can
see
and
I've
got
a
couple
slides
to
to
explain
this
is
generally.
What
we
see
is
that
we
had
more
student
growth
movement
from
the
wisdom
cohort
moving
into
early
on
grade
level
than
we
did
with
the
non-win
wisdom,
students.
H
H
We
then
further
broke
it
down
simply
by
grade.
We
simply
broke
it
down
by
grade,
so
we
took
this
data
and
what
you're
seeing
it
here
is
just
grade
by
grade
and
again
generally.
This
shows
that
the
Winton
wisdom
cohort
students
made
more
progress
toward
their
yearly
typical
growth
than
the
non-win
wisdom
students
generally
in
each
grade
level,
when
a
student
reaches
his
or
her
typical
growth,
you're
doing
really
well
you're,
showing
really
good
growth.
H
At
this
point
of
the
school
year,
I
ready
will
automatically
push
students
into
what
they
call
stretch,
growth
or
stretch
activities
where
they're
stretching
productive
struggle,
really
getting
the
student
to
reach
and
stretch
in
their
growth.
So
even
in
the
stretch
growth,
when
we
pulled
that
data,
we
found
that
generally
the
wisdom
cohort
students
made
more
progress
toward
their
stretch,
growth
than
the
students,
not
in
the
whiten
wisdom
cohort.
H
H
It's
going
to
give
us
a
great
amount
of
savings
over
the
course
of
the
five
years
rather
than
trying
to
go
year
to
year,
adopting
wit
wisdom
further
aligns
us
to
resources
that
we
already
have
that
I
mentioned
earlier
hegarty
foundations
and
our
decodable
readers,
the
geodes
the
purchase,
will
include
a
K-5
literacy
program.
That's
aligned
to
our
core
standards
meets
the
requirements
of
the
science
of
reading,
which
is
now
PA
Law.
H
Those
cortex
we've
had
here
that
continue
to
be
available
for
review
at
the
admin
building.
I
know
some
I
know.
Mr
ginhart
took
a
few
out
read
a
few
on
his
own.
It
also
provides
us
teacher,
instructional,
material,
same
thing,
teacher
materials,
digital
platform,
access
and
three
years
of
professional
development.
So
we
have
a
multi-year
PD
plan
to
support
teachers
Journeys
our
current
program
that
we
have
that
was
adopted
back
in
2013-2014.
H
So
if
we
do
not
adopt
wisdom
going
into
fall
of
2023
right
now,
we
will
not
have
a
reading
English
language
arts
program
for
K5,
with
hmh
pulling
that
we
kind
of
knew
that
a
little
bit
going
in
there's,
sometimes
writing
on
the
wall
with
Publishers
and
that's
why,
referring
back
to
the
conversation,
Dr,
Ortiz
and
Dr
Perkins
had
low
those.
Many
years
ago,
we
were
proactive
in
our
work
to
get
to
this
point
today
and
not
waiting.
E
E
H
H
We
already
have
great
minds
as
the
publisher
and
our
K5
Eureka
math
program
is
with
great
minds.
We've
had
a
lot
of
collaboration
with
great
minds,
there's
always
no
guarantees
of
anything
Mr
Martin,
but
we've
already
discussed
with
them
that
they're
working
on
a
second
iteration
of
wisdom
and
they're
expecting
an
update
to
the
curriculum
sometime
in
26-27.
So
that
puts
us
in
good
alignment
now
and
that
will
again
make
us
be
proactive
for
when
they
do
update
and
revise
their
curriculum.
E
But
is
there
something
within
the
contract,
in
the
unlikely
event
that
something
should
go
awry
with
great
minds,
become
not
great
minds,
yeah
that
that
if
they
have
to
end
their
share
of
the
agreement,
is
there
something
in
there
in
the
contract,
language
that
protects
the
school
district?
That
was
a
simple
question.
We
will
certainly
look
into
that.
Well,
it's
about
a
returning,
a
sentence
that
the
the
solicitor
I'm
sure
could
draft
for
you.
If
it's
not
in
there
just
to
be
protective
and
protect
the
school
district
that
this
program
they
will
guarantee
or.
A
K
H
Had
a
great
team
and
they've
done
great
work,
and
we
couldn't
be
here
without.
L
Them
the
information
that
you
you've
shown
with
the
results
so
far
is
really
impressive
and
I.
Think
one
thing
that
definitely
stood
out
was
whether
with
written
wisdom
or
otherwise,
it
is
a
testament
to
our
awesome
teachers
for
doing
a
great
job
for
our
students
all
the
time,
no
matter
how
they're
teaching
them.
So.
Thank
you
very
much
for
that.
That
said,
I
think
it
looks
like
a
fantastic
curriculum
and
I'm
excited
for
what
I
will
do
for
our
students
going
forward.
I.
H
Am
too
thank
you
and
I
I
think
Dr
Ortiz
could
speak
to
this
better
than
I
can
with
his
expertise.
But
you
know
the
literacy
landscape
has
changed
so
whatever
new
curriculum
we'd
be
looking
at
to
replace
Journeys
has
to
meet
that
requirement
for
the
science
of
Science
of
reading
for
for
Pennsylvania,
so
we're
in
a
good
spot
to
again
be
proactive
and
be
ahead
of
the
curve
with
it.
M
Excuse
me
I
just
wanted
to
say
this:
it
must
feel
good
to
get
too
close
to
the
the
Finish
Line,
with
all
the
work
that's
gone
into
it.
So
congratulations
on
that.
Thank
you
for
all
the
hard.
A
N
Good
evening
board
We
Have
Tonight
our
next
rendition
in
our
School
District
budget
for
the
23-24
school
year.
N
N
Our
our
quote
that
we've
let
off
with
you
know
I
think,
continues
to
to
ring
true
and
and
really
is
the
work
behind
the
numbers
that
makes
the
difference
thanks
to
the
team
of
teaching
and
learning
in
our
Student
Services
Group
that
really
get
that
that
stuff
done
our
timeline
we're
now,
hopefully
the
homestead
deadline
was
met.
We
had
been
advertising
that,
with
every
update
that
that
now
has
come
to
pass
and
now
we're
really
focusing
our
attention
on
a
April
26th
adoption
of
a
final,
a
proposed
final
budget.
N
As
we
get
into
these
slides.
A
Excuse
me:
I,
don't
mean
to
interrupt
you,
but,
as
you
have
the
budget
timeline,
if
the
board
members
feel
that
this
is
a
good
budget
and
a
budget
they
want
to
support,
we
don't
have
to
go
to
June
30th.
Do
we
ask
a
deadline?
We
can
do
it
in
May
if
correct.
If
the
board
members
support
the
budget
correct.
N
Thank
you.
We
haven't
had
in
the
past
the
the
final
assessment
so
as
the
numbers
move
right,
the
assessments
come.
We
have
the
March
real
estate
assessment
in
here,
but
the
board
can
approve
the
budget
at
any
point.
In
that
time,.
A
We
seem
to
have
a
very
good
consensus,
and
perhaps
this
year
we
won't
go
through
that
all
right
parade.
We
go
to
the
drama
of
the
very
end.
We
have
all
these
budgets
everybody's
happy
for
it
and
then
the
last
minute
I
don't
like
that
budget.
I,
don't
like
that
budget,
but
this
time
it
seems
to
be
a
little
bit
different,
maybe
I'm,
just
very
optimistic,
but
it
seems
a
climate
seems
to
be
with
us
at
this
point.
Until
we
see
what
you
go
through
tonight,
you
could
change
it
all.
I
I
hope.
That's.
N
Not
the
case,
I
hope,
that's
not
the
case
if
this
is
just
another
and
a
good
presentation
of
and
sharing
of
information.
So
thank
you.
N
As
we
looked
at
the
budget
and
as
we
shared
in
the
informational
section
at
the
committee
of
the
whole
meeting
last
two
weeks
ago,
we
pulled
out
the
district
policies
really
pertaining
to
budget
budget
planning
and
budget
preparation.
N
Is
this
very
process
right
with
the
goals
and
objectives
concerning
the
education
of
the
district
students,
those
those
delegations
and
those
responsibilities
articulated
a
little
further
within
the
budget
planning
slide
policy
602
includes
the
in
an
annual
estimate
for
the
implementation
of
the
district's
educational
programs,
the
preparation
of
a
long-range
plan
for
annual
maintenance
and
replacement
of
facilities
to
prepare
a
plan
for
the
current
and
future
technology
needs
to
maintain
an
inventory
and
replacement
schedule
for
district
equipment
to
establish
a
project
budget
for
of
expenditures
and
income
for
the
current
year
and
the
ensuing
year,
we've
continued
to
show
A
Five-Year
Plan.
N
As
we
look
at
that
to
prepare
an
annual
estimate
of
student
enrollments,
we
have
shared
that
earlier
in
December
to
maintain
a
plan
of
anticipated
revenues
based
on
changes
in
the
state
federal
legislation.
The
governor
prepared
his
budget
last
Tuesday,
we're
still
working
through
that,
and
it's
still
a
fluid
process,
certainly
in
Harrisburg
and
then
to
report
to
the
board
any
serious
financial
implications
arising
from
the
budget.
So
those
are
all
aspects
of
that
plan.
N
N
Looking
at
at
that
Five-Year
Plan
and
really
the
focus
number
five
on
our
policy
established
of
the
budget
projected
budget
of
expenditures
for
the
current
and
ensuing
year.
I
have
here
our
current
our
current
budget.
So
this
was
our
the
budget
shared
as
part
of
that
February
28th
meetings.
This
is
the
February
28th
long-range
plan.
It
shows
a
deficit
in
the
current
in
our
current
Plenty
or
the
24
school
year
of
128
252
dollars.
N
Since
that
meeting
we've,
as
I
mentioned
earlier,
we've
received
the
latest
property
assessment
that
has
shown
an
increase
in
our
property
values
which
is
good
and
that
relates
to
that
translates
to
an
additional
156
thousand
dollars.
183
dollars
in
additional
real
estate,
Revenue
other
additional
potential
reductions
in
savings
that
we
are
working
on
in
March.
We
anticipate
getting
the
final
look
from
the
Delaware
Valley
Health
Trust,
which
is
our
health
care
provider,
we're
expecting
to
get
that.
You
know
this
week
or
next
we've
continued
I've
held
meetings
with
all
of
the
schools.
N
We
hosted
the
district
hosted
a
group
through
pasbow
last
Friday
to
evaluate
what
the
governor
shared
and
the
budget
that
he
proposed,
as
well
as
understanding
and
helping
our
fellow
business
administrators
understand
the
implications
of
the
variable
funding,
because
over
the
new
money
that
the
governor
is
putting
into
the
budget
goes
into
a
variable
pot
and
that
how
that
gets
allocated
is
really
the
key
and
understanding
those
metrics
and
understanding
how
that
works,
and
we
went
into
pretty
good
detail
on
that
on
the
in
the
15th
of
December.
N
You
could
look
back,
but
that's
that
variable
pot
of
money
into
making
sure
we
understand
how
that
impacts.
Us
was
key
to
that
Friday
discussion
and
the
note
at
the
bottom
is
the
anticipated
positive
interest,
Revenue
variants
in
this
current
year
right
so
as
we've
shared
the
financial
reports
and
the
treasurer's
report,
due
to
the
federal
reserve's
increases
in
in
Interest
being
charged
right.
So
during
the
pandemic,
the
Federal
Reserve,
you
know,
had
next
to
almost
nothing
in
interest
rates,
so
our
interest
revenue
is
very
low.
N
Thirty,
five
thousand
fifty
six
thousand
with
the
the
climbing
with
the
Federal
Reserve,
pushing
those
rates
higher
that
is
driving
significant
positive
variances
in
our
own
Financial
Outlook
now
so
well.
I
wouldn't
want
to
borrow
money
today
against
those
we're
certainly
making
out
by
having
that
money
in
the
bank,
foreign.
N
Other
other
reductions
to
date,
I
think
it's
important
to
to
sort
of
keep
these
in
mind.
Some
of
these
happen,
as
we
put
together
the
budget
in
in
real
time,
but
we've
we've
shown
a
reduction.
The
23
20
or
the
23
24
budget
shows
a
reduction
in
Charter
School
expense.
That's
in
part
due
to
the
certainly
the
success
of
centennial's
virtual
Learning
Academy,
as
well
as
our
registrar's
review
right.
N
The
student
services
team
and
our
registrar
have
done
a
a
really
wonderful
job
in
making
sure
that
they
are
reviewing
those
Charter
School
invoices
making
sure
that
those
families
are
living
in
our
area
and
that
those
bills
are
accurately
being
recorded.
N
A
savings
within
the
screen
beam
technology
right,
there's
a
several
discussions
around
screenbeam
technology
as
part
of
our
Capital
plan
and
and
an
aspect
of
that
is
just
how
that
is
going
about
and
the
move
to
the
screen
beam
actually
saves
the
district
money
because
we're
not
buying
laptops
and
desktops
for
those
teachers,
we're
just
utilizing
that
screen
beam
technology
and
really
providing
a
better
experience
for
our
teachers,
who
can
then
get
out
from
behind
their
desk
where
the
desktop
sits
and
stand
in
front
of
their
class
with
their
laptop
as
well
as
it
engages
them,
because
students
can
quickly
jump
onto
the
screen
as
well
and
and
work
together,
a
reduction
in
staff
compensations
of
a
hundred
and
fifty
thousand
dollars.
N
We
have
efficient
and
effective
process
improvements,
areas
that
we
continue
to
work
on
to
get
better
as
a
district.
We
continue
to
bring
many
of
those
things
up.
We've
worked
very
hard
in
our
grant
processing
within
our
recovery
areas
right,
so
we
have
potential
recovery
from
from
home
districts
for
foster
care
students,
it's
1305
and
4605
sort
of
determination
of
residences.
So
the
registrar's
been
working
hard
on
those.
N
That's
one
of
the
things
that
came
out
of
the
auditor
General's
report
and
certainly
a
focus
of
the
team
as
we
push
through
those
those
processes,
we
have
students
returning
that
were
at
placements
District
placements
returning
to
CSD,
so
the
tuitions
that
we
were
paying
for
those
students
would
no
longer
be
required.
We
identified
those
students
today
as
saving
the
district
and
bringing
them
back
eighty
two
thousand
dollars
and
eighteen
thousand
dollars
in
in
reduction
of
the
storm
water
charges.
N
So,
as
you
may
recall,
Warminster
came
out
with
a
storm
water
assessment
in
last
January
January
a
year
ago.
That
was
billed
we
recovered
last
year's
overpayment
and
we
are,
we
see,
we'll
receive
eighteen
thousand
dollars
in
credit
throughout
this
year.
That
was
good
work
and
and
thanks
to
our
facilities,
team
and
Alex
Shepard.
For
for
leading
that
that
effort,
it
comes
to
a
total
of
about
a
million
dollars,
as
we
run
down
those
numbers.
N
Okay,
so,
with
the
with
the
a
new
assessment
right
still
at
a
4.1
percent
act,
1
increase,
it
goes
from
a
negative
to
a
positive
one.
Twenty
seven
thousand
dollars,
as
you
can
see
on
this
slide,
so
everything
maintaining
everything
being
consistent.
I'll
show
this
slide
at
the
the
4.1
percent,
as
well
as
a
three
percent
the
deficit.
Then
we
we
then
created
deficit.
N
And
finally,
at
a
2.9
percent
increase
another
2.9:
it's
a
981
thousand
dollar
deficit
projected
through
2024.,
okay,
one
of
the
things
that
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we
do
look
at
as
as
we
have
right,
as
we
show
these
long-range
plans,
it's
really
trying
to
project
what
a
a
possible
actual
increases
or
what
that
possible
increase
could
be
into
the
future
right
and
the
impact
of
that.
As
we
deal
with
right
now,
we're
showing
the
the
projected
act,
one
from
the
fiscal
office,
the
independent
fiscal
office.
N
If
we
show
those,
that's
that
Top
Line,
but
the
line
in
play
is,
is
that
second
line?
We
try
to
take
the
average
that
we
have
been
under
that
act,
one
index
and
show
okay.
If
we
maintained
that
average
below
the
actual
index,
how
would
that
impact
Us
in
the
long
term
right
so
that
we
gain
an
understanding?
It's
easy
to
say
next
year
we
can
do
4.1
or
a
3-0
or
a
2.9.
What
do
we
expect
for
that
next
year?
N
So
I'm
trying
to
show
the
impact
of
that
as
we
look
out
and
I
think
that's
something
that
will
continue
to
work
on
this
slide.
Just
shows
that
and
an
impending
deficit
of
seven
million
dollars
in
in
that
final
year,
2028.
N
This
slide,
it
takes
those
same
very
number,
those
same
exact
numbers
and
looks
at
it,
and
you
can
see
the
impact
of
that
compounding
rate.
Year
after
year,
we've
stood
here
and
shared
the
impact
of
compounding
rates
both
on
the
revenue
side
and
the
expense
side,
and
we'll
go
from
a
deficit
of
897
000
to
a
deficit
of
7.1
million
dollars.
Using
that
estimated
that
guess
at
what
those
Act
One
indexes,
what
that
act.
N
N
This
next
slide
again
is
we've
shared
this
before
this
is
just
updated
with
the
current
March
forecast,
which
shows
that
at
a
4.1
that
20
27
000
positive
and
each
increment
right.
So
four
percent
three
and
a
half
three
two
point:
seven:
five:
two
and
a
half
showing
both
to
the
median
home.
The
annual
impact
of
that
tax
assessment,
as
well
as
the
monthly
impact
of
that
tax.
That
tax
assessment.
N
As
we
look
at
educational
planning
right
in
reference,
where
that
is
in
in
policy
as
well
as
sort
of
highlight
again,
our
Trends
in
in
education
that
we've
been
focused
on
this
slide
shows
employee
groups,
English
shared
with
the
board
previously,
and
the
Bucks
County
Intermediate
Unit
provides
a
student,
a
annual
Staffing
survey
that
Staffing
survey
comes
out
in
the
fall
every
year
and
each
of
the
districts
in
the
county
provide
information
relative
to
their
Staffing
levels.
N
You
can
see
where
Centennial
stands
both
in
enrollment
as
well
as
in
administrators,
so
we're
sort
of
right
in
line
it
would
appear
based
on
student
enrollment
and
as
as
I
share
here.
While
it's
important
to
remember
that
all
schools
are
as
unique
as
a
children's
they
serve,
our
enrollment
does
seem
to
fit
based
on
the
number
of
students
and
the
number
of
Administrators
and
I
think
it's
also.
N
You
know
worthwhile,
as
we've
shared
whether
it
was
the
ELD
presentation
the
other
day,
whether
it
was
our
our
virtual
Learning
Academy,
whether
it's
our
social,
emotional
and
academic
learning,
the
district
is
really
the
district's
profile
is
really
Rising,
certainly
within
the
county.
N
If
not
the
state
in
the
country,
when
we
are
in
magazines,
we're
being
called
out,
our
team
seems
to
really
be
doing
an
outstanding
job
and
is
is
beginning
that
shining
example
of
what
can
be
done
so
we're
very
proud
of
that
and
I'm
proud
of
the
the
team,
not
just
the
administrators,
but
the
the
support
staff,
the
teachers
that
make
all
of
that
that
come
to
life
foreign.
N
This
slide
is
just
a
summary
of
a
the
slide
shared
earlier,
and
it
shows
the
professional
staff
and
the
the
budget
impact
of
the
increases.
It
includes
the
number
of
members
the
average
increase
the
cost
in
dollars
and
and
sort
of
that
act
one
equivalent.
So
you
can
see
that
for
the
support
staff
and
the
administrators
that
is
tied
to
the
2324,
the
Bureau
of
Labor
Statistics
as
of
December,
the
3.7
is,
is
the
September
number,
which
is
what
we
had
when
we
did
the
budget
and
I
think
it.
E
N
Already
we've
already
snuck
one
in
yes,
so
so,
as
I
said
right
that
that
survey
comes
out
in
the
fall
right,
so
we
have
added.
We
have
added
the
administrative
Meg
last
week
right
that
came
and
spoke
to
us
about
our
ELD
program.
Meg
is
a
part
of
that
support.
Part
of
that
act,
93
team
33,
is
correct.
33
is
today
you
got
it
any
other
questions.
N
Okay,
this
next
slide
looks
at
the
middle
box
Institute
of
Technology.
We
did
receive
a
a
draft
with
what
they
have
approved
as
their
plan
today,
and
we
we
got
cracking
and
looking
at
that.
This
just
shows
provides
some
history
of
annual
budget
increases,
both
whether
those
are
both
for
the
district,
as
well
as
for
the
mbit
increases
and
the
impact
of
of
of
that
in
2324.
N
Right
of
the
impact
of
a
four
point,
one
4.2
percent
increase,
as
well
as
the
impact,
if
that
was
held
to
a
2.9
percent
increase
in
what
that
does
to
the
district's
share
of
that
incremental
amount
of
money,
and
we
also
then
highlight
the
capital
plan
that
was
approved
and
continues
to
be
played
through.
N
We
continue
to
look
forward
to
receiving
an
update
from
the
middle
bucks
Institute
of
Technology
we're
expecting
that
review
of
their
Capital
plan,
as
we
mentioned
earlier
in
the
year
with
with
the
changes
in
the
economy,
with
the
changes
in
the
economics,
particularly
around
construction.
Those
numbers
are
inflating
and
we
are
waiting,
as
I
said,
to
hear
from
them
and
and
get
an
expectation
is.
Does
this?
N
Will
this
Capital
plan
do
what
it
needed
to
do
when
we
set
it
in
place
and,
as
you
may
recall,
middle
bucks,
Institute
of
Technology
deferred
many
capital
projects
over
its
existence
and
came
back
two
years
ago
and
and
was
approved
for
what
amounted
to
an
eight
million
dollar
Capital
raise
that
the
districts
are
all
contributing
to
underfunding
that
to
really
catch
up
the
facilities
and
that
deferred
Capital
that
we
had.
I
The
point
of
concern
and
consideration
is
that
and
speaking
to
the
new,
a
director
over
there
who
inherited
the
situation,
we
talked
about
the
need
for
it
to
be
incumbent,
Upon,
Our,
Representatives,
to
bring
back
financial
information
to
the
entire
board
and
get
feedback
before
they
vote
on
it.
As
you
can
see
the
growth
and
it's
not
a
quality
division,
the
program
is
awesome.
I
That's
that's
not
the
issue,
but
the
growth
and
right
now
we're
seeing
a
projection
of
a
2.7
million
dollar
budget
this
year
from
our
district,
going
from
roughly
2.5
the
previous
year,
so
212
000
increase,
which
is
a
quarter
of
a
meal
also
so
I
think
there
needs
to
be
more
earlier
dialogue.
So
the
whole
board
sees
the
potential
growth
in
our
willingness
to
say
what
numbers
we're
going
to
continue
to
fund
in
the
program,
because
we
are
I
think
the
largest
a
percentage
of
the
percent
as.
J
N
I
Thank
but
thank
you
for
making
sure
that
was
clear,
so
we
just
you
know,
and
he
agrees
that
we
need
to
kind
of
expedite
the
process
so
that
that
whole
big
picture
is
included
rather
than
on
the
back
end
of
the
process.
So
you
all
are
aware
up
front
and
again
he
just
got
there.
So
it's
not
something
he
did.
Let
me
be
clear
and
it's
been
great
working
with
him.
Thank
you
sure.
N
The
chart
on
the
right
really
just
shows
the
annual
general
fund
contribution
made
by
Centennial,
as
well
as
the
growth
and
Compares
that
to
the
Act
One
index.
So
you
can
see
the
the
the
yellow
is
where
mbit
is
and
the
Red
Dot
is
is
centennial's
increase
to
that,
and-
and
just
the
note
at
the
bottom,
which
is
you
know,
a
statement
really
is
Right.
Centennial
tries
to
limit
limits,
doesn't
try
but
limits
enrollment
in
programs
such
as
the
Arts
or
music
and
Athletics.
N
Those
aren't
unlimited
in
terms
of
participation
as
we
try
to
manage
our
own
expenses
and
and
that's
important,
certainly
for
us
in
our
in
our
work
going
forward.
N
This
next
slide
just
looks
at
the
general
fund.
Balance
right,
I
think
it's
important
to
keep
our
eye.
This
is
the
district's
Savings
in
many
ways,
right
as
it
is
tied
to
the
the
general
fund-
and
you
can
see
that
Centennial
is-
is
next
to
last,
just
ahead
of
Bristol
borough
in
terms
of
overall
general
fund
savings.
N
E
That
one,
isn't
it
equally
important
or
more
important
that
you
have
uncommitted,
general
fund
balances.
If
we
look
at
this
chart,
we
have
one
of
the
best
ratios
of
uncommitted:
General
funds,
it's
great
to
have
a
lot
of
money,
but
if
it's
all
committed
that
that
doesn't
free
up
money
for
other
things,
whereas
we
have
in
essence
with
the
exception
of
perhaps
Neshaminy
a
very
good
comparison
with
uncommitted,
general
fund
balance
right
so
we're
in
a
better.
E
E
I
I
I
recall
reading
recently
that
Pennsbury,
which
is
one
of
the
ones
that
has
the
big
on
a
sign,
has
just
looking
at
a
very
extensive
renovation
of
their
athletic
facilities
and
other
things
which
will
commit
some
of
those
funds,
so
actually
Although
our
number
isn't
as
high.
If
you
look
at
the
uncommitted
portion,
we're
better
off
than
a
lot.
N
Of
them,
yes
to
some
extent
right,
so
this
is
the
this
is
a
2021.
This
came
from
our
forecast
five
system
that
pulls
all
of
this
data
for
us
and
allows
us
to
put
these
graphs
together.
The
unassigned
in
the
committed
piece
districts
are
only
allowed
to
maintain
a
certain
amount.
That's
that
nine
percent
or
under
goal
within
an
unassigned
fund
balance
against
that
right,
so
fund
balances
are
not
allowed
to
be
unassigned
from
balances
are
not
allowed
to
be
just
collected
in
in
a
mass
right.
N
There
was
a
number
of
schools
through
a
recent
audit
that
were
called
out
for
fund
balances
that
were
believed
to
be
in
excess
right,
so
we
certainly
need
don't
want
to
show.
We
want
to
make
sure
we're
we're
attuned.
If
you
will
to
that
unassigned
fund
balance,
that's
a
big
indicator
right.
So
the
fact
that
our
unassigned
fund
balance
at
that
point
in
time
is
where
it
is,
is
a
marker,
but
I
would
I
would
not.
I
And
the
benefit
of
the
assigned
is
that
that
means
you
actually
have
money
to
address
projects
without
negatively
impact.
Your
UNL
sign
what
your
Auditors
would
tell
you.
If
you're
on
the
side
keeps
going
up
and
down
that's
going
to
negatively
impact
your
bond
rating,
they
look
for
a
stable
unassigned.
I
That
means
you
have
the
ability
to
address
an
issue
that
won't
be
catastrophic,
that
you
can't
address
in
my
previous
District
went
through
that
and
I
had
part
of
the
tasked
was
to
stabilize
them
because
they
had
and
they
were
negatively
impacting
their
tax
rate.
They
were
doing
this.
The
dealer
projects,
as
opposed
to
having
money
to
deal
with
easy
example,
is
every
10
years
you're
supposed
to
renovate
your
artificial
turf.
I
For
example,
you
don't
want
to
wait
for
a
million
dollar
price
tag
and
the
end
result,
so
you
put
your
roofs,
are
part
of
it,
so
planning
so
pictures.
We
had
a
technology
fund
balance
and
we
knew
that
every
five
years
we
had
to
refresh
so
there
was
money
dedicated
to
that,
so
it
didn't
have
to
be
a
big
tax
increase
that
particular
year.
So
there
there's
a
method
to
The
Madness
of
having
a
combination
of
both
that
are
sound
is
a
way
I
would
answer
your
question.
Mr
Martin.
N
And
the
the
two
and
a
half
million,
which
is,
is
our
committed
fund
balance.
That
is
our
our
Pleasers
fund
that
we're
we
began
last
year
to
incorporate
into
our
budget
right.
We
were
taking
money
from
that
committed
fund,
applying
it
to
our
budget,
which
creates
sort
of
an
unbalanced
budget.
If
you
will
but
stabilizes
right,
we
look
to
use
that
to
stabilize
the
increases
in
in
pisers
year
over
year.
N
This
slide
because
of
the
the
other,
the
previous
slide
being
dated
one
year,
I
reached
out
to
the
fellow
business
administrators
in
Bucks,
County
and
asked
them
hey,
show
me
what
you
got
and
then
I
collected
this
information
from
the
schools
that
responded
to
me
and
then
I
shared
it
back
out
to
that
Collective
of
school.
N
This
school
not
only
shows
the
general
fund
balance,
but
their
total
fund
balance,
which
includes
Capital
fund,
which
would
include
Debt
Service
fund
and
any
other
money
that
they
are
holding
within
their
Capital
fund,
and
you
can
see
for
Council
Rock,
Pennsbury,
Penn,
Ridge,
Palisades,
Centennial,
New,
Hope
and
Bristol,
where
their
fund
balances
come
in
at
near
absolutely
right.
N
Mr
Martin
pensbury
has
a
a
a
a
plan
as
they're
working
to
upgrade
their
Stadium
facilities
and
I
believe
they
had
a
bond,
raise
or
bond
issue
done
and
I
think
part
of
that
funding
is
certainly
in
their
in
their
general
fund
balance,
as
at
the
end
of
this
is
the
June
30th
2022
numbers.
N
This
slide,
I
I
will
you
know
is,
is
has
been
repeated,
so
I
don't
want
to
read
through
each
of
these,
but
these
are
areas
that
we
can
continue
to
look
at
and
continue
to
investigate,
as
as
the
administration
does
in
trying
to
find
ways
to
to
to
manage
that
budget.
The
last
line
is,
is
a
new
one
to
this
slide
and
that's
adopting
a
structurally
unbalanced
budget
use
with
the
use
of
one-time
funds,
and
this
slide
sort
of
shows
that
right.
N
So
if
you
had
the
the
the
original
budget,
the
current
excuse
me
the
current
March
budget
that
had
a
deficit
at
a
3.0
percent
increase
of
eight
hundred
ninety
seven
thousand
dollars
you
could
take.
You
could
transfer
money
from
that
Debt
Service
fund
to
offset
that
deficit,
as
shown
in
the
graph,
and
you
would
have
at
you
know
two
thousand
dollar
positive
at
the
end
of
that
transfer.
Okay,
you,
you
may
recall
our
Auditor
in
the
auditor's
presentation.
That's
certainly
a
a
use
of
funds
in
order
to
do
that.
N
N
N
But
if
you
fail
to
plan
you're
planning
to
fail,
and-
and
you
know
in
in
many
ways
it's
an
effort
of
sort
of
kicking
the
can
down
the
street
one
of
the
areas
that
we
have
talked
about
over
the
last
several
years
deals
with
transportation
and
a
refresh
program
that
was
started
by
my
predecessor
in
the
ninth
and
was
a
part
of
the
1920
budget
plan,
included
a
refresh
replacement
of
five
buses
a
year
and
and
that
Vision
I
believe,
although
I
wasn't
here,
looked
at
our
80
or
so
buses
and
said,
okay,
if
I
replace
five
a
year
in
15
years,
I
should
be
done
all
right.
N
16
years,
I
will
have
all
of
my
base.
Buses
replaced
if
I
have
a
fleet
of
85
I,
get
there
right
with
an
average
age
of
about
eight
years,
the
oldest
being
15
or
16.
right.
So
that's
the
the
window
and
the
refresh
program
that
we've
had
and
that's
that's
sort
of
what
is
laid
out
here.
It's
also
worth
noting,
aside
from
the
buses
that
we
talk
about
the
vehicles
that
we
use
to
transport
students,
District
owns
an
additional
14
Vehicles.
N
Those
are
our
service
Vehicles
facility
Vehicles.
We
use
these
vehicles
to
plow.
We
use
these
vehicles
to
to
do
the
work
of
the
district.
Okay.
N
This
slide
shows,
then
what
we
have
done
since
that
FY
20
budget,
where
we
replaced
five
budgets
in
that
first
year
and
FY
21,
we
replaced
one
bus,
FY
22
last
school
year.
We
replaced
five
buses
again
and
fiscal
year.
This
that
we're
currently
in
we
replaced
two
buses.
So
I
have
this
pictorial
in
two
different
ways:
for
those
who,
like
line
graphs
and
like
to
see
the
number
move,
this
just
shows
what
you
would
need
to
do.
The
number
of
buses
you
would
need
to
purchase
in
order
to
get
back
in
line
right.
N
We've
moved
from
an
average
age
of
eight
years
to
9.23
years.
If
we
continue
to
push
this
off
that
age,
average
age
of
our
bus
will
grow,
the
average
expense
is
to
maintain
those
buses
will
grow
in
line
with
that.
So
this
just
shows
what
you
would
need
to
do
to
get
that
back
in
line.
This
has
everyone
coming
in
at
at
that
nine
year
mark
which
is
a
solid
line?
N
I
think
the
goal
when
it
was
started
was
really
that
eight
year
mark
I
think
that
was
sort
of
the
target,
and
this
line
short
and
this
chart
shows
similarly
the
same
picture
right.
This
just
shows
we
purchased
five
buses,
we
purchased
one,
we
purchased
five,
we
purchased
two.
The
plan
today
asks
for
five
buses
right
in
order
to
continue
to
get
those
buses
in
line.
N
You
only
need
to
start
increasing,
accelerating
that
that
replenishment
right,
if
we
just
replace
five,
the
average
age,
will
be
much
longer
and
really
looks
at
its
stretching,
as
that
top
bus
has
shown
really
stretching
our
our
bus
Fleet.
Right
again,
the
fleet
is
82
buses,
the
average
age,
the
current
average
age.
Our
oldest
is
2006
17
17
years
and
187
000
miles.
We
have
a
number
of
buses
that
have
more
miles
as
Dr
best
referred
to.
N
N
This
slide
just
shows,
based
on
the
review
from
our
mechanics,
as
well
as
our
transportation
team
at
large
they've
proposed
the
following
buses
to
to
to
be
graduating
right
to
to
be
moved
on.
You
can
see
the
bus,
the
first
bus,
the
number
of
days
out
of
service,
it's
years
mileage
and
it's
not
always
just
a
year
situation
right,
as
we
all
know,
we've
all
bought
cars
and
we've
had
cars.
N
Sometimes
I've
had
a
car
for
a
really
long
time,
I'm
one
who
likes
to
buy
and
hold
personally,
but
sometimes
I
have
a
longer
longer
time
than
others
right
and
it's
just
what
it
is.
So
most
of
those
right,
the
youngest
is
15,
the
oldest
is
17
and,
as
I
said,
you
know
the
one
bus
there
is
2001
miles.
These
are
all
the
buses,
the
one
bus
I
think
it
is.
What
is
that
Bus,
55
65
I?
Think
now.
N
Grace
is
the
front
lawn
of
Donald
Elementary
and
is
supporting
our
hiring
Billboards
so
that
that's
that's
where
the
buses
go
to
I
guess
to
die,
perhaps,
but
hopefully
we'll
we'll
be
able
to
move
that
on.
N
So
that
is
the
the
request
from
that
Transportation
team
and-
or
you
know,
this
slide
I
think
we've
shared
as
well
shows
the
the
fund
balance
our
Capital
fund
balance
for
23.24,
as
well
as
the
projects
that
we
have
put
forth
from
our
planning
committee,
parking
lots
at
at
the
high
school
resealing
and
and
securing
the
transportation
lot
potential
Furniture
in
the
in
the
library,
with
the
athletic
sheds
at
the
high
school
middle
school
family
and
consumer
science
classrooms,
which
are
Originals
to
the
to
the
1950
construction
of
those
buildings.
N
Auditorium
projectors
the
screen
Beams
I,
mentioned
earlier
The
District
phone
Hardware
has
already
been
pre-approved
the
bus
replenishment,
the
bus
refresh
as
well
as
some
contingency
tied
to
that
for
the
things
that
we
don't
know.
If
we
did
all
of
those
projects
that
would
cost
us
about
3.1
million
dollars
and
would
leave
an
ending
balance
of
1.4
million.
N
N
The
recommendations
is
to
be
able
to
use
that
Surplus
from
our
investments,
as
I
mentioned
earlier,
to
be
able
to
use
that
to
transfer
to
the
capital
fund
and
that
extends
the
capital
funds
year
life
yet
another
year,
right
and
I
think
it's
that
idea
the
opportunity
to
use
that
one-time
money
to
facilitate
and
support
that
Capital
plan.
Yes,
Mrs
Lynch.
A
Yeah
that
that
great
thing
that
we
found
two
million
dollars
more,
why
I
mean
I
know
that
you
have
all
the
explanation?
I
know
you
have
all
the
charts
and
I
know
you
have
the
pictures.
I
know
you
have
all
that
it's
common
sense.
Why
are
we
putting
the
whole
2
million
into
Capital
funds?
Why
can't
we
put
some
into
the
general
fund?
N
I
Depending
on
what
you
adopt,
that
would
be
the
case.
You
basically
have
two
pots
of
money.
You
have
a
five
million
dollar
just
like
Revenue
that
came
in,
and
then
you
have
a
two
million
dollar
investment
that
actually
has
been
has
been
reported
monthly.
In
the
the
report
to
the
board.
We
just
reconcile,
as
I
said,
to
show
you
hey.
You
got
a
cumulative
effect
here.
Both
of
those
are
one-time
money,
pots
of
money,
and
you
don't
have
a
funding
source
right
now
to
sustain
your
Capital
So
the
plan.
I
The
recommendation,
Administration,
is,
if
you
go
below
to
4.1,
to
take
some
of
that
5
million
that
came
in
and
unanticipated
Revenue
that
you
can
pull
some
of
that,
but
also
take
this
other
source.
That's
one-time
money
to
address
that,
so
we're
actually
trying
to
stretch
the
burden
out
and
also
extend
the
life
of
some
of
that
money
when
you're
seeing
projected
deficits
that
are
coming
down
the
pipe
with
potential.
I
N
Capital
correct
yes,
I
mean
that
that's
the
recommendation
is
to.
I
I
Your
capital
is
going
to
run
out
after
next
year
and
we're
trying
to
extend
the
life
to
address
those
needs
so
that
you
have
another
year
of
funding
source
without
having
to
address
it.
With
a
tax
increase.
Right
now
we're
saying
here's,
this
debt
service,
that
has
five
million.
We
put
the
money
which
honestly
that's
a
backup
of
roughly
896.
I
000,
depending
on
what
the
state
settles
or
doesn't
we're
going
to
get
something
from
the
state,
so
that
number
may
be
smaller.
So
we
want
that
debt
service
to
last
as
long
as
possible
to
cover
projected
deficits
in
the
future.
So
we
don't
want
to
draw
down
too
much
on
it
and
we
also
want
to
have
the
ability
to
address
Capital.
We
put
the
buses
off
last
year.
I
know
that,
and
so
we
got
to
do
something.
N
So
what
we
did
is
in
moving
the
2
million
it.
It
covers
this
upcoming
year
as
well
as
that
next
year.
Right,
so
it
looks
at
just
the
next
two
years
you
can
see
in
in
the
out
years,
in
26,
27
and
28
we're
back
to
a
deficit
right,
we're
back
to
an
underfunded,
Capital
plan
Capital
fund
against
our
planning
documents.
We
tried
to
get
a
full
two
years
under
our
belt,
using
that's
why
we
moved
the
entire
2
million
right.
A
E
One
I
don't
know
to
me
the
most
important
slide
that
whole
presentation
is
the
one
that
says:
expense
reductions
for
the
board,
consideration
I,
think
they're
all
very
valid.
Instead
of
talking
about
moving
money
and
all
this
kind
of
gobbley,
we
should
be
concentrating
on
any
ways
to
possibly
reduce
the
expenditures
that
are
in
the
proposed
budget.
There's
several
listed
here
for
board
discussion.
We
have
had
no
board
discussion
on
any
of
the
I.
E
Don't
want
to
do
it
tonight,
but
I
think
it's
important
that
the
board
gives
Mr
Greenwood
the
direction
of
what
the
board
wishes
to
do,
which
is
there's
ten
nine
topics
here
that
affect
the
budget,
guess
what
we
want
to
do,
and
rather
I
want
it
to
go
smoothly,
as
you
suggested
at
the
beginning
of
the
meeting,
I
think
it's
possible
to
do
that,
but
at
some
point
we
need
to
have
the
boards
consensus
on
these
various
topics.
And
what
is
the
plan
of
how
to
accomplish
that?
That's
my
question.
A
If
you
I'll
give
you
my
thoughts
on
this,
is
that
I
agree
that
we
have
to
discuss
further,
but
at
this
point
there
was
a
consensus
that
we
would
not
go
for
the
state
index
of
4.1.
Not
one
person
out
of
nine
on
this
board
said:
that's
a
possibility,
so
I
believe
Mr
Greenwood
is
giving
us,
even
though
I
might
have
questions
he's,
giving
us
a
2.9
index
budget.
A
N
For
ultimately,
ultimately
Mrs
Lynch,
the
board
will
approve
whatever
we
transfer
right
so
I
know,
I
know
with
we,
whether
it's
2
million
it's
a
million.
It's
a
dollar.
Fifty
again
I
think
we
looked
at
it
covering
that
period
of
time.
N
Oh,
that
is,
that
brings
this
presentation
to
its
conclusion.
There
any
questions
that
I.
E
Tried
to
figure
out
which
I
still
haven't
been
able
to
do
when
I
mean
Mr
Greenwood's,
going
to
guess
that
five
members
of
the
board
or
seven
members
aboard
or
eight
members
aboard
want
to
buy
five
buses.
When
are
we
going
to
come
to
the
realization?
The
conclusion
that
the
majority
of
the
board
does
want
to
buy
buses
does
want
to
do
this
doesn't
want
to
do
that,
doesn't
want
to
do
the
other
thing,
and
if
we
reduce
the
expenditures,
you
won't
have
to
transfer
any
money
from
anywhere
no.
A
D
Yeah,
just
to
add
on
to
what
Mr
Martin
was
saying:
I
was
looking
at
for
fiscal
year,
24
to
2.9
increase.
It
gives
us
a
deficit
of
981
thousand
dollars.
So
that's
one
of
the
things
we
should
look
at
is
maybe
splitting
that
to
find
ways
to
reduce
that
and
then
using
some
of
that
two
million
dollar
chart,
plus
with
the
interest
to
knock
that
down.
So
we
can
get
to
a
comfortable
2.9
percent
increase
and
still
put
something
into
the
capital
fund.
But.
I
What
you
just
said
is
what
would
happen
you
could
put
the
2
million
into
the
capital
and
then
take
your
5
million
and
take
800
or
something
thousand
out
of
it.
So
that's
the
plan.
We
rolled
out
that,
if
you
didn't
do
anything
else
again,
what
I
would
like
to
say
to
you
is
I:
don't
anticipate
that
800
and
something
thousand
dollars
to
stay
there.
As
I
said
earlier,
I
expect
that
to
go
down
because
the
state
they
just
we
never
know
until
the
end.
That's
the
problem.
I
If
the
board
is
has
a
majority
at
2.9,
then
it's
2.9
and
like
Mr
Martin
said
you
can
talk
about
wherevers.
You
want
to
cut
to
get
the
800
something
thousand
dollars
or
you
can
say
here's
you.
You
know
the
worst
case.
You
know
that
this
is
what
you're
going
to
draw
down
from
your
debt
service,
depending
on
the
final
numbers
from
your
health
care,
your
state
funding,
the
governor's
plan
is
just
the
beginning,
but
his
plan
would
address
that.
That's.
N
Page
28
the
slide
28,
which
shows
that
that
adoption
of
an
unbalanced
budget
right
shows
the
transfer
of
that
nine
hundred
thousand
dollars
from
The
Debt
Service
fund
to
offset
that
deficit,
which
is
what
I'm
understanding
Mr
goodheart
you're
you're,
alluding
to
whether
it's
the
capital
fund,
whether
we
take
it
from
the
interest,
whether
we
move
money
from
The,
Debt
Service
fund
to
the
capital
fund,
I,
think
it's
just
really
sorting
out
where,
where
we
want
the
money
to
be
and
and
what
we
want
to
be
able
to
focus
on
right,
I
think
we
looked
at
it
and
said
that
one-time
money,
as
shared
by
our
Auditors
in
The
Debt
Service
fund,
using
that
to
offset
deficits
using
the
Surplus
in
the
upcoming
year
to
to
bolster
our
Capital
plan
and
make
it
solvent.
O
M
I,
don't
really
have
any
questions
but
I
I'm
curious
to
see
over
the
course
of
the
next
year
or
two
how
the
governor's
vision
of
helping
to
fund
PA
public
education
more
affects
us
as
an
individual's
School
District.
It's
yet
to
be
seen.
I
am
hoping,
and
I
am
optimistic,
that
we
will
see
more
funding.
Do
we
know
if
it's
going
to
happen?
We
don't
but
I'm
optimistic.
K
So
so,
yes,
I
I,
agree
that
no
one's
going
to
leave
the
school
without
anything.
No
one
wants
to
do
that.
So,
if
we're
able
to
with
the
2.9
say
we
say,
we
all
agree
on
a
2.9,
we're
able
to
pull
that
excess
money
to
fund
things
until
give
the
taxpayers
a
break.
Is
that
accurate?
How
we're
looking
at
this?
We
can
pull
that.
That's
whatever
necessary.
You
said
for
the
next
two
years.
Yes,
it
would
look
as
a
balanced
budget,
so
we're
not
going
to
be
leaving
a
classroom.
K
You
know
any
larger,
we're
not
going
to
be
not
providing
something
for
any
of
our
students.
We're
just
going
to
be
pulling
that
extra
funding
into
the
budget
to
make
sure
that
it's
balanced
and
everyone
gets
what
they
need.
Correct.
D
Yeah,
it's
just
something
just
occurred
to
me.
I
know
this
is
all
brand
new,
so
there's
probably
not
a
lot
of
information
surrounding
it,
but
with
that
recent
court
decision
that
the
current
funding
the
way
current
funds
are
allocated
to
corpages
unconstitutional,
is
there
right,
but
anything
in
your
professional
circles,
but
how
the
any
conjecture
about
how
that
might
shake
out
or.
I
I
Point
yeah,
the
only
so
far
down
the
road
right
and
he's
even
said
that
as
a
governor
that
it's
going
to
be
a
process,
I
would
hope
that
we
do
better
than
others
and
getting
it
resolved
sooner.
But
typically,
it's
been
multiple
years
before
you
even
see,
because
it's
a
funding
formula,
change
in
process
and
a
challenge
that
everyone
is
concerned
about
is
you
know
if
you're
representing
X
school
district
and
you're
going
to
lose
money?
Your
constituents
not
going
to
want
you
to
vote
for
something
that's
going
to
move
money.
J
N
We've
discussed
a
number
of
things:
we've
discussed,
No
Buses,
we've
discussed
three
buses,
so
the
chart
that
I
shared
has
buses
at
various
levels
and
again
I.
Think
if
you
buy
three
buses
and
not
five
buses,
I
think
you
need
to
be
buying
nine
buses
next
year
and
not
five
buses,
not
eight
buses,
right,
I.
Think
the
the
the
strategy
and
the
goal
needs
to
be
focused
on
replenishment,
focused
on
plan
forward
and
not
kicking
that
can
down
the
down
the
road.
N
As
the
the
picture
alludes
to
and
I
think
that's
an
important
aspect
right,
I
I
think
it
saves,
within
the
capital
plan,
we're
showing
a
way
to
fund
that
and
and
do
so
in
in
a
in
an
organized
manner,
one
that
would
take
care
of
the
the
plan
for
two
years,
whether
those
projects
all
get
approved,
whether
they're
all
warranted.
Whether
something
else
completely
comes
up
new
right.
You
know,
we
didn't
know
the
high
school
was
going
to
have
its
structural
problems
until
August.
N
You
know
15
days
before
we
opened,
so
we
were
glad
to
have
that
money
in
the
fund
and
we
were
glad
to
be
able
to
make
sure
that
school
was
there,
but
I
think.
Yes,
you
you,
the
board
can
have
buy
three
buses.
They
can
buy
No
Buses
I'm
just
here
to
tell
you
the
impact
of
that
really
falls
down
down
the
stream
right.
N
Apples
and
oranges
I
agree,
but
the
concept
Still
Remains
right
so
whether
we
address
it
this
year
or
we
address
it
down
the
year
mbit.
Similarly
right,
we
had
deferred
maintenance.
That
was
never
done.
N
So
you
may
get
credit
and
hey
hey
I
saved
you
here
neighbor,
you
may
cost
that
same
neighbor,
more
money
down
the
road.
So
that's
my
point
night.
Hopefully
that
was
respectful
I
don't
mean
to
be
any
any
disrespondent
in
that
response.
J
No
I
I
believe
that
they
can
three
buses
will
be
adequate.
I
did
my
homework,
it
I
didn't
just
pull
that
number
out
of
the
air
and
and
for
your
information.
Bus
65
hasn't
run
for
years.
I
know
I
know
it
should
have
been.
You
know,
rescued
a
long
time
ago,
but.
J
A
You
Mr
Greenwood,
a
lot
of
effort
went
into
this
that
you
have
given
us
tonight
and
it
truly
a
person
on
behalf
of
this
board.
We
truly
appreciate
all
your
hard
work.
I.
A
A
We
have
gone
down
to
the
wire
at
the
last
meeting,
so
the
board's
going
to
look
like
Heroes
look
what
we
did
for
you.
We
cut
your
taxes,
we're
starting
early.
Do
we
have
things
that
we
have
to
have
answered
like
Mr
Martin
said,
of
course,
will
we
get
that
done?
Of
course,
should
we
pass
this
budget
before
the
end
of
June
I
feel
we
will
so
sir.
Thank
you
very
very
much.
Thank
you
very
much.
J
I
mean
Mrs
Lynch
did
you
say
so
we
can
all
be
heroes,
I
I'm
just
trying
to
make
sure
I'm
hearing
you
what'd,
you
say
see:
I,
don't
think
I
can
hear
you
properly.
Did
you
say
so
we
can
all
be
heroes.
A
A
K
K
E
Thank
you,
madam
president.
Mr
codex
and
Mr
Leiden,
myself,
I
guess
we'll
have
some
things
to
discuss
whenever
the
next
finance
committee
meeting
will
be
it'll,
be
in
the
near
future.
The
last
one
was
actually
prior
to
our
prior
meeting
when
we
discussed
the
audit
and
things
of
that
nature,
so
we'll
look
forward
to
the
next
one
as
we
continue
to
look
for
savings
and
expenditures
for
the
school
district.
Thank
you
thank.
L
Operations
committee
meets
this
Thursday
morning
at
11,
30
current
and
planned
projects,
as
we
just
saw
a
little
bit
about,
are
on
the
docket
for
more
discussion
and
as
I
mentioned
last
time,
we
were
in
this
room,
important
conversations
about
our
priorities
in
terms
of
Maintenance
and
modernity
of
our
district
resources,
our
had
in
Ops
meetings.
L
While
we
don't
always
agree
in
terms
of
how
we
weigh
those
priorities,
I
appreciate
the
benefit
of
Mike
Lyden
and
Mary
Alice
brancato's
experience
and
input
the
budget
is,
you
know
the
expression
number
of
values
like
we
said,
and
everybody
comes
at
it
thoughtfully
and
with
their
own
perspective.
So
I
appreciate
that
and
ultimately
that's
that's
what
you
want
robust
discussion
about
how
and
when
we've
tackle
the
many
challenges
and
opportunities
that
we're
faced
with
in
the
district.
I
I
You
know,
a
big
part
of
that
effort
is
around
building
block
number
eight
for
high
performing
schools
about
providing
a
supportive
learning
environment,
and,
specifically,
the
objective
is
for
the
school
that
our
schools
have
a
safe
civil
and
healthy
and
stimulating
learning
environment,
a
part
of
when
you
think
about
schools,
Safety
and
Security
you're
talking
about
a
five-prong
process
which
deals
with
prevention,
protection,
mitigation
response
and
Recovery.
I
We
talk
about
those
things
with
prevention
and
mitigation,
we're
talking
about
assessments,
we're
talking
about
policies
and
procedures,
Emergency,
Management
plan
protection,
we're
talking
about
physical
security,
our
security
officers,
the
law
enforcement
collaboration
and
training
and
drills,
and
then
our
response,
as
you
can
see
down,
there
is
about
awareness,
threat,
assessments
and
those
types
of
things
and
then
recovery,
the
psychological
first
aid,
the
family
reunification
and
a
continuity
of
services.
I
You've
seen
this
before
the
definitions
that
exist.
Currently,
we
typically
employ
what
we
really
are
more
like
security
monitors.
Our
efforts
are
intended
to
upgrade
our
staff
to
include
actual
security
officers
and
guards
to
meet
the
standard,
and
that
is
outlined
by
the
Pennsylvania
Department
of
Education
and
then
also
to
address
having
a
supervisor
of
Safety
and
Security
in
the
district.
That
would
also
have
the
same
credentials
as
a
school
police
officer
as
outlined
by
the
Pennsylvania
Department
of
Ed.
I
Since
we
last
met,
we
continue
to
focus
our
efforts
on
trying
to
bring
forward,
hopefully
in
April,
for
board
action,
a
plan
that
centralized
security
and
safety
efforts
up
under
a
supervisor
of
Safety
and
Security
that
has
the
same
SPO
credentials
to
over
to
oversee
our
efforts
in
Centennial,
meaning
supervision
of
our
security
guards
and
our
monitors
any
third-party
contracts.
We
have
related
to
Safety
and
Security
A
Fire
and
Security
planning
coordination
of
training
and
staff,
which
act
55
is
going
to
be
a
big
one.
I
That's
another
mandate
coming
from
the
state,
that's
another
thing
that
we
have
to
train
and
be
engaged
in
all
District
staff.
That's
going
to
be
a
heavy
lift
for
any
District,
obviously
our
relationships
with
our
local
police
and
fire
responders,
our
requirement
to
manage
safe,
to
say
and
our
Gaggle
activity
and
then
up
to
date,
security,
equipment
and
plans
across
our
district.
I
You
know
our
number
of
plans
are
required
by
the
state,
the
idea
of
trying
to
keep
those
up
to
date
and
also
move
them
into
our
navigate
360
system.
That
has
been
a
slow
migration
for
us
because,
again
it's
a
piece
of
someone
else's
job,
while
they're
doing
their
main
job.
So
we
want
to
establish
true
safety,
security
guards
and
security
monitors
roles.
The
board
did
give
consensus
around
making
that
transition
for
our
current
staff
as
they
are
now.
I
We've
had
started
to
have
meetings
with
those
people
about
the
new
job
descriptions
that
were
adopted
a
while
ago,
but
also
the
adjustment
and
compensation,
because
you
know,
we've
had
a
revolving
door
effect.
Every
time
we
hired
someone,
they
realized
it's
a
really
tough
job
and
we
are
having
problems
holding
on
to
them.
The
goal
of
addressing
our
network
security.
I
I
What
we're
currently
will
be
bringing
for
right
now
to
the
board
is
two
in
April
or
if
it
fits
within
a
threshold.
For
me
to
take
emergency
action,
we
have
had
meetings
with
one
of
the
most
reputable
companies
in
the
area
about
bringing
third-party
services
to
address,
dress
our
staffing
issues.
We
just
can't
get
people
the
high
school
is
down.
We
have
a
vacancy
in
other
places,
and
the
recruitment
process
has
been
very
sporadic
with
regards
to
getting
fillers
our
meeting
with
them
is.
I
If
we
enter
an
agreement,
they
would
assume
some
of
the
responsibilities
to
help
us
fill
our
current
vacancies
as
they
exist,
as
well
as
our
assessment
and
training
opportunities
proposals
forthcoming.
We
again
you've
already
given
us
the
blessing
to
implement
the
updated
job
descriptions
for
both
guards
and
monitors,
as
well
as
the
responsibilities
and
compensation
that
goes
along
with
those
those
job
descriptions
you
got
in
that
meeting
were
the
updated
job
descriptions
that
distinguish
the
differences
and
the
pace
scales
for
next
year.
I
I
will
tell
you
we
will
be
asking
you
to
move
forward
with
the
recommended
Safety
and
Security
changes
that
you
received
in
that
briefing,
regardless
of
the
final
adopted
tax
increase
even
at
if
you
want
to
2.9
that
800
90,
whatever
900
deficit,
that
still
had
those
things
in
there,
so
they're
already
included
it
wouldn't
add
to
that,
is
what
I
want
you
to
understand,
so
the
those
are
in
there
even
with
it,
so
even
at
a
2.9
and
I
think
it's
incumbent.
What
we're
saying
is
this:
is
such
a
high
priority.
I
We
gotta
if
you
to
miss
a
March
Point
we've
got
a
cup,
we're
ready
to
cut
fine.
We
find
it
somewhere
else
and
fix
this
problem
as
soon
as
possible.
One
recommendation
we
are
making
that
would
reduce
some
of
that
cost.
From
that
projected
deficit.
Is
because
we're
so
far
into
this
process,
we
can't
turn
around
the
school
resource
officer
process,
so
we're
recommending
remove
that
160.
I
out
of
it
right
now
and
and
save
that
for
when
the
Safety
and
Security
supervisors
on
board
to
work
with
trying
to
develop
that.
And
if
you
want
to
include
it
in
this
budgetary
cycle,
because
that
will
require
a
long-term
commitment
to
the
township.
They
can't
commit
to
this
type
of
thing
without
a
multi-year
commitment
and
we
need
to
make
sure
we're
prepared
to
fund
it
for
the
long
haul,
as
well
as
the
joint
collaborative
conversation
that
will
need
to
be
held
with,
while
the
practitioners
ourselves
and
the
Chiefs
have
talked.
I
I
So
then,
you
roughly
drop
that
to
800
something
thousand
dollar
shortfall
for
this
year
and
again
to
to
continue
their
relationship
with
that
third
party
as
a
support
anytime,
we
have
vacancies,
but
we
definitely
will
want
to
depend
on
them
to
make
sure
all
of
our
people
receive
the
acts
67
training,
if
not
the
natural
training,
is
what
our
plan
of
action
is
to
go
forward.
So
currently
we're
trying
to
stabilize
the
the
gaps
that
we
have
in
the
district
there's
we
met
with
them,
Monday
they're
supposed
to
be
presenting
a
plan.
I
Our
goal
is
to
look
at.
How
do
we
use
the
current
funding
of
vacant
positions
to
fund
that
agreement?
And
if
it's
close,
we
want
to
pull
the
trigger
and
move
forward
so
like
we,
we
have
to
do
salaries
and
pieces.
We
add
that
in
it
may
cover
the
rate
that
we
would
have
to
pay
them.
For
example,
does
that
make
sense
you
following
me,
because
we
wouldn't
be
paying
the
pension
part
of
it?
I
A
A
Once
again
to
me,
this
is
a
top
priority
for
our
school
district.
Collectively
we
have
spoken
about
it
somewhat.
There's
variations
of
viewpoints
but
I
believe
everybody,
even
with
the
variations
knows
that
we
have
to
have
more
monitors,
more
Security
in
our
school.
So
does
anybody
else
have
any
questions
at
this
point
in
time
when
the
subject
matter
real.
A
E
I
Tom
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong,
I
believe
it's
six
six
to
the
current
cash
rate
that
we
have,
and
that
was
in
the
executive
session.
I,
try
not
to
say
too
much
publicly
because
of
Safety
and
Security
yeah
I.
Just.
I
Yeah
and
Nate,
which
one
is
up
Nate.
I
P
Q
I
sure
can
I'm
happy
to
chat
about
that
so
here,
at
Willowdale
and
across
the
district,
one
of
the
things
that
s-e-a-l
or
social,
emotional,
academic
learning
might
look
like
sound
like
and
feel
like
is
your
morning
meetings
that
you
have,
if
you
have
brain
breaks
throughout
the
day
time
to
take
breaths
time
to
check
in
with
how
you're
feeling
maybe
like
zones,
what
zone
am
I
in
all
of
that
has
to
do
with
our
social
and
emotional.
Q
It
helps
to
make
sure
that
we
are
at
our
best
as
best
as
possible
throughout
the
day
and
that's
the
staff
and
the
students
and
then,
while
you're
learning
anytime,
that
you're
having
a
partner
conversation
or
you're
working
in
a
group
you're
trying
to
solve
a
problem,
even
though
it
might
be
about
math
or
reading.
That's
actually
social,
emotional
skills
too.
So
it's
stuff
that
we
do
all
day
long.
That
supports
our
reading
our
math,
our
social
studies
and.
P
Our
science,
that
is
really
cool
so
actually
I,
was
just
in
a
first
grade
classroom
the
other
day
and
they
were
practicing
a
new
morning
meeting
reading
and
it
was
so
cool.
The
kids
were
in
a
circle
and
they
got
them
on
there
like
needs,
and
they
sang
this
really
really
cute
song,
and
then
they
popped
up
when
it
was
their
birthday,
so
I
made
them
do
it
again,
so
that
I
could
participate.
P
So
can
you
imagine
me
like
flying
through
the
air
with
a
bunch
of
experience,
but
it
was
so
fun
so
right
morning,
meeting
is
a
time
for
our
students
and
our
kiddos
to
connect
with
their
classmates
with
their
teacher.
It
helps
us
to
continue
to
build
community,
which
is
super
important
right,
yeah
that
sense
of
belonging
this
community.
P
So
we
are
strategically
working
here
every
day,
thanks
to
your
help
and
guidance,
that
of
the
teachers
and
our
kiddos
love
it,
and
so
continue
to
ask
your
kids
check
in
with
them
about
morning
meetings
some
of
the
fun
things
they're
doing
to
build
community
in
their
classroom
and
here
at
school.
So
thank
you.
Thank
you.
Would
you
like
to
do
our
read-aloud
for
the
week.
Q
Thank
you
all
right,
so
the
book
we
have
today
to
highlight
social,
emotional
learning
is
called.
What
do
you
do
with
a
problem
and
so
I'm
so
excited
to
read
this?
Yes,
all
right.
What
do
you
do
with
a
problem
by
Kobe
Yamada,
because
you
know
what
one
of
the
things
that
I
think
about
is
for
families
for
people
at
school,
adult
students
we
all
have.
We
might
have
a
lot
of
differences,
but
we
all
experience
problems.
So
this
is
a
really
helpful
book
to
think
about
what
might
be
inside
of
a
problem.
Q
P
Q
R
I
feel
like
this
should
feel
like
coming
to
school
is
fun
and
it's
like
a
healthy
environment,
because
there's
a
lot
of
stuff
going
on
and
I
feel
like
I
would
want
the
kids
to
like
just
feel
relaxed
about
everything.
A
S
U
Calm,
like
kind
of
Happy
need
to
like
have
that,
like
everyone
includes
each
other
and
they
like
care
for
each
other
and
they're
all
just
helping
each
other
and
like
it,
makes
me
happy
about
to
see
that.
V
Hey
hey,
my
name
is
Cubby
and
me,
and
my
fastest
friends
are
here
to
tell
you
about
one
of
my
favorite
things:
Panther
Cubs
summer,
All-Stars,
kids
right
here
in
the
Centennial
School
District
at
camp.
We
get
to
learn
all
sorts
of
cool
things
like
Reading,
Writing,
science
and
math
I
have
so
much
fun
with
my
friends
and
teachers.
These
last
play
learn
and
grow,
creating
memories
that
will
last
a
lifetime
so
come
along
with
us
for
the
journey
and
we'll
tell
you
all
about
it.
Take
it
away.
Emery.
X
W
Teachers
that
work
with
our
students
every
day
had
some
pretty
comprehensive
criteria
that
they
were
able
to
look
at
to
analyze
very
clear
data
points.
They
looked
at
attendance,
they
looked
at
reading
and
math
ability.
They
looked
at
the
mtss
information
that
was
provided
by
the
other
Specialists
that
work
with
the
students
and
they
came
up
with
a
list
of
students
that
would
really
benefit
from
two
to
four
hours
a
day.
W
Y
W
Z
The
program
I
was
a
fourth
grade
teacher.
What
that
allowed
me
to
do
was
work
with
students
in
small
groups
because
of
the
small
class
sizes
and
working
with
students
over
the
summer
allowed
me
to
go
over
a
lot
of
the
big
topics
that
we're
taught
during
that
year
and
allowed
me
to
bridge
the
gap
between
what
they
were
running
last
year
to
what
they
were
going
to
be
learning
next
year.
At.
V
W
Our
district
coaches
worked
tirelessly
to
select
programs
for
this
summer,
All-Star
camp.
That
will
really
help
the
students
with
that
intervention.
So
we
use
a
lot
of
the
things
that
the
students
are
familiar
with
during
the
school
year.
Things
like
iready,
and
the
wonderful
thing
about
this
program
is
that
the
district
recognized
that
because
of
this
need
they
provided
support.
They
provided
training,
they
provided
the
programming
and
really
the
financing
needed
to
make
sure
that
these
students
got
a
really
comprehensive
intervention
over
the
summer.
The.
X
Z
W
These
intervention
tools,
the
teachers,
do
some
fun
activities.
We
have
theme
days
we
go
outside
this
students
get
that
time
on
the
playground
for
recess.
They
get
to
hang
out
with
their
friends.
They
get
to
still
have
snack
time,
but
they
also
get
that
really
targeted
intervention.
We
use
their
I-Ready
benchmarking
data
from
the
school
year,
so
that
kind
of
is
streamlined
and
flows
right
into
the
summer
intervention
needs
and
the
teachers
were
able
to
Target
those
individual
skills,
both
individually
and
in
small
groups,
to
provide
that
work
over
the
summer.
W
Additionally,
a
lot
of
these
tools
are
available
through
August.
So,
even
though
our
Panther
Cub
summer
All-Stars
program
is
four
days
a
week
that
ends
in
July,
students
are
able
to
continue
to
work
using
some
of
these
intervention
programs
all
the
way
through
to
the
following
school
year,
so
the
work
that
they
do
with
their
Pandora
Cubs
summer,
All-Stars
teachers
they're
able
to
continue
using
at
home
as
well.
AA
W
Am
extremely
proud
to
work
and
live
in
a
community
supported
by
a
school
district
that
recognizes
the
need
for
a
program
like
this
and
the
data
from
our
previous
two
years
with
the
summer.
Also's
program
has
shown
that
a
program
like
this
really
does
help
all
of
the
student
scores
increase
exponentially
over
the
course
of
the
summer,
and
that
really
has
contributed
to
the
district's
continued
growth
as
we
continue
to
analyze,
pvos
data,
pssa
data
and
even
Keystone
data,
as
that
intervention
continues
to
help
them
through
middle
school
and
even
high
school
as
well.
V
I
K
A
I
would
just
like
to
add:
there's
videos
were
fantastic
I
think
it's
so
vital
that
our
community
sees
the
good
that
we
do.
If
you
looked
at
those
young
students,
they
were
smiling.
It
made
everybody
smile
because
they
were
so
happy
so
hope
we
continue
on
with
this
and
show
the
community
Centennial
isn't
just
a
job.
It's
a
love
of
children.

K
C
K
Okay,
all
in
all,
in
favor.
K
O
A
This
is
for
Nativity
of
Our
Lord
track
team
to
use
our
Stadium.
Now
I,
don't
want
to
argue
with
anybody
here.
I
know
the
policy
was
updated,
I
didn't
believe
the
policy
was
proper
when
it
was
updated,
but
you
know
when
you're
in
a
minority
these
things
happen.
I
know
that
this
amount.
A
K
J
Brancato
I'd
like
to
make
a
motion
to
reduce
their
fee
I
agree
with
Mrs
Lynch
100
percent
that
the
kids
of
our
school
district
that
attend
our
schools.
Centennial
Schools,
also
benefit
from
many
things
that
come
from
Nativity
I
think
that
we
should
not
be
charging
them
any
more
than
it
costs
us
exactly.
So
that
would
be
somebody
to
oversee
while
they're,
while
they're
using
our
track.
J
I,
don't
know
that
they're
using
it
at
night,
so
I
don't
know
that
it
would
be
lighting
issue,
but
I
do
think.
We
could
reduce
that
fee.
A
D
A
I
I
O
Yes,
I
would
just
like
to
ask
a
question:
we
we
do
have
a
track
at
Klinger.
I
know
that
I
don't
know.
If
there's
one
at
log
would
it
be
possible
that
they
would
be
allowed
to
use
their
one
in
their
tracks
at
no
cost
baby
instead,.
T
O
I
mean
I'm,
just
I
know
it's
not
as
good
equality,
but
our
middle
school
kids
run
there
at
Klinger,
and
at
least
my
kids
did
years
ago.
So
I
don't
know
if
there
is
one
at
log
but
which
wouldn't
be
too
far
from
from
the
school
for
for
the
kids
to
go
there
I
just
just
an
option.
That's
all.
K
M
My
only
my
concern
is
that
we've
had
these
motions
before
us
in
the
past
and
we
are
trying
to
set
a
precedent
where
we
bring
emotion
on
the
floor
in
the
moment
without
prior
discussion
with
the
administration,
and
it
sets
the
tone
that
in
the
future
anything
that
we
charge
for
for
visiting
groups
is
up
for
debate
or
up
for
a
back
and
forth
of
the
the
rates
and
I.
M
Don't
think
that
that's
fiscally
responsible
for
us
if
it's
something
that
we
count
on
from
year
to
year,
so
I
just
I,
don't
agree
with
the
process.
If
we're
to
discuss
it.
We
should
be
discussing
this
in
advance
of
being
here
at
this
desk
Mr
Martin
before
we.
E
A
Yes,
but
yes,
you
do
yes,
please
and
then
I
want
to
address
something
that
you
said
previously.
I
didn't
want
this
to
happen,
ladies
and
gentlemen,
because
it
happens
all
the
time
I.
I
A
A
A
Well
now,
17
years
I've
heard
all
these
things
every
time
it's
brought
up,
I
heard
you
say
we're
press
do
it.
You
know
with
this
policy,
just
throwing
it
out
there
because
I
like
Nativity
I'm,
aware
of
that
too
I
accept
all
things
that
all
of
you
want
to
say.
A
I
only
asked
for
a
reduction,
so
there
is
a
motion
and
a
50
percent.
Yes,
it's
president
setting
Mr
Martin
brought
up
the
the
idea
that
we
don't
know
exactly
what
it
cost.
So
is
that
an
emotion
there
is
a
35
reduction
which
makes
it
two
thousand
seven
hundred
and
thirty
dollars.
All
these
things
have
said:
let's
just
vote,
is
it
going
to
be
passed?
No
my
viewpoint.
It
should
yes.
M
B
Right:
okay,
Mr
Martin,
no
Mrs,
eilenberg,
no
Mr
Sadowski.
C
G
B
Mr
gintart,
yes,
Mrs
Lynch,
yes,
Miss,
Mr,
Leiden,.
C
K
Okay,
moving
on
to
conferences
and
travel,
6.6
approves
the
overnight
request
for
two
William
Tennant

A
K
So
I
just
wanted
to
open
mic
night
last
week.
Can
I
tell
you
it
was
fantastic.
It
was
absolutely
fantastic,
those
kids,
the
poems
the
songs
that
it
was
just
the
energy
in
that
room.
Our
district
is
phenomenal.
I
have
to
tell
you
that
the
kids
we
have
the
best
students
I,
don't
care.
You
put
me
on
record,
saying
it.
We
have
the
best
students
of
anywhere.
It
was
just
wonderful,
so
anytime
you
get
a
chance
to
head
over
and
see
something
like
this.
Their
talent
is
amazing.
M
I
also
was
witness,
and
the
thing
that
struck
me
the
most
about
that
particular
event,
more
so
than
a
lot
of
others
which
I
enjoy
all
of
them.
We
try
to
go
to
as
many
as
possible
was
the
opportunity
for
students
to
put
themselves
out
there
with
original
material,
allow
themselves
to
be
vulnerable
with
their
peers
and
the
support
that
they
had
in
that
from
their
other.
M
Their
fellow
students
was
absolutely
mind-blowing
and
it
I
got
so
emotional
watching
this,
because
I
just
thought
some
of
these
students
in
other
districts,
or
even
just
in
general,
don't
take
that
opportunity,
don't
have
that
opportunity
and
that
allows
them
to
develop
confidence
and
to
and
to
solidify
bonds
with
their
their
fellow
students,
and
it
was
just
beautiful.
It
was
really
beautiful
and
well
done.
L
Thank
you,
Mr
Janoski,
to
keep
the
Arts
love
fest
going
our
Middle
School
Musicals
are
in
the
books
and
they
were
once
again
spectacular.
Showcases
of
the
talent
and
hard
work
of
our
students
and
the
many
faculty
and
parent
volunteers
who
chip
in
to
make
some
very
impressive,
shows
happen.
I
was
a
and
fantastic
auditoriums,
very
comfortable
seating,
so
great
places
to
Great
venues
to
watch
shows
like
that.
I
was
at
Klinger,
Friday
and
Saturday.
L
Role
in
or
behind
the
concession
stand,
keeping
audience
members
applied
in
soft
pretzels
and
other
snacks
not
to
be
eaten
in
the
auditorium,
which
is
new
but
to
be
eaten
in
the
hallway
made
sure
of
enforcing
that,
but
I'm
very
excited
for
Mary
Poppins
too.
So
it's
a
great
time
of
year.
A
M
M
Several
of
our
students
got
honorable
mentions,
which
they
were
wonderful,
this
the
talent
that
was
there
and
a
lot
of
comments
from
other
districts
talking
about
our
director,
Mr
dakarni
and
and
what
they've,
what
he's
been
able
to
do
with
their
jazz
band
and
our
students
is
starting
to
get
like
State
recognition
and
I'm
just
so
proud
of
them.
So
I
really
appreciated
that
opportunity.
Thank.
D
Yeah
I
would
just
like
to
reinforce
something
that
Mr
Gray
would
have
mentioned
in
his
budget
presentation,
and
then
we
got
in
our
our
board
report,
giving
credit
to
Alex,
Shepard
and
Joanne
Liebert
for
the
work
they
did
in
getting
a
Storm
order,
credits
to
reduce
the
expenses
of
the
district
and
therefore
to
the
taxpayers.
Sixteen
thousand
dollars
worth
of
credits
and
fifteen
hundred
dollars
a
month
ongoing
in
credits
and
they're
still
working
apparently
on
log.
They
do
get
us
more
credits
there.

Success,

up

lots

Community.
There
will
be
a
ceremony
in
May
I,
don't
have
the
exact
date.
I
will
have
it,
but
a
very
impressive
group
of
graduates
from
William
Tennant
over
the
years
and
they
managed
to
make
it
so
I
think
the
tenant
did
a
good
job
all
the
way
along.
A
Thank
you,
wonderful!
Thank
you!
Mr
Martin
Mr
Kinder.
Just
for
a
second
please
thank
you
for
bringing
that
up.
I
understand
that
residents,
our
Township
or
Mr
Township
that
if
you
save
the
Rainwater
in
buckets,
you
can
get
a
credit
for
the
the
rain.
They
call
it
Rain
Tax,
but
then
it's
another
thing
so
for
the
community
out
there,
my
water
rates
have
woohoo
and
I,
don't
have
a
large
family
residing
in
my
home.
J
A
Okay,
would
you
tell
Mr
rentcut
rancata
to
go
to
my
house
and
put
some
Marine
buckets
I
sure
will.
Thank
you
all
right
reports.
District
policy
report,
Miss
allenberg,
please
thank.
M
You
we
actually
just
reviewed
what
has
been
discussed
and
what's
been
presented
for
discussion
and
adoption.
We
will
be
meeting
again
in
a
couple
weeks.
This
is
Mrs
Lynch,
Mr,
ginahar
and
myself,
along
with
the
administration
kind
of
spearheaded
by
Colleen
Rush,
our
wonderful
secretary.
Thank
you
for
all
the
work
that
you
do
regarding
that
we're
still
working
through
past
psba
suggestions
and
trying
to
bring
our
policies
into
alignment
that
haven't
been
touched
in
many
many
years,
so
we're
still
going
to
be
tackling
that
we're
making
Headway.
A
M
All
right,
so
one
of
the
things
I
wanted
to
focus
on
I
mean
our
bciu
does
so
has
so
many
programs,
and
so
many
moving
Parts
as
a
whole.
One
of
the
programs
that
I
want
to
Spotlight
is
the
Ambassador
Academy,
and
this
is
something
that
is
geared
toward
the
staff.
This
is
something
that
helps
promote
leadership,
abilities
and
communication
and
team
building,
and
this
is
for
staff
from
a
bus
driver
to
a
director
to
someone
who's
an
aide
in
a
classroom.
M
It
gives
an
opportunity
for
these
folks
to
come
together
and
learn
from
very
skilled
individuals
how
to
level
up
a
little
bit
and
create
a
stronger
team.
This
in
a
corporate
environment
often
doesn't
happen.
So
I
want
to
give
a
tremendous
shout
out
to
Dr
Hoffman
and
his
team
for
bringing
the
Ambassador
Academy
program
in
in
2016
and
they've
been
doing
it
annually,
since
it's
just
a
group
of
our
staff
at
bciu
that
have
an
opportunity
to
grow
and
learn
from
each
other.
So
I
really
love
that
wonderful.
L
Major
report,
this
meeting,
just
that
we
are
just
shy
of
a
month
away
from
advocacy
day
coming
up
on
April
18th,
so
that's
happening
soon
and
we're
all
looking
forward
to
it.
The
policy
Institute
that
I've
been
going
through
for
the
past
half
year
plus
has
been
great.
That's
wrapping
up
soon,
so
it
was
all
building
up
to
that
day.
M
It
was
a
786-page
decision
released
on
February
7th
from
Commonwealth
Court
Judge,
Renee,
Cohn,
Jubilee,
Lear
I
always
mess
that
up.
She
just
she
declared
after
the
suit
was
brought
forth
in
front
of
the
court
Pennsylvania
school
funding
system
unconstitutional.
Now.
The
context
that
I
wanted
to
give
was
that
this
talks
about
a
lot
of
the
underfunded
lowest
income
school
districts.
M
At
the
end
of
the
day,
there's
likely
going
to
be
an
appeal
for
the
decision,
then
to
the
point
of
everyone
here
in
the
discussion
and
Dr
Benton.
It
could
take
a
very
long
time,
even
after
that,
I
want
to
be
clear
that
there
is
no
guarantee
that
Centennial
would
specifically
benefit
from
that.
So
I
thought
it
was
important
to
give
that
context.
M
This
time
so
I
can
say
that
from
our
state
representative,
PA
state
representative
aspect,
the
committee
assignments
have
been
made,
and
so
the
education
committee
has
been
established.
We're
going
to
see
what
comes
from
that
in
the
coming
months
and
I'll
be
able
to
give
some
more
information
at
our
next
meeting.
O
Basically,
what
we're
working
on
right
now
at
mbit
is
the
budget
just
like
we
are
here.
Also,
we
have
a
problem
with
enrollment,
which
is
a
good
thing,
because
we
have
too
many
children.
The
problem
we
have
is
how
we're
going
to
fit
them
in
and
the
space
we
need.
So
that
is
one
of
the
main
things
we
were
working
on.
The
other
thing,
I
would
say,
is
a
shout
out
to
the
mbit
students.
O
We
won
first
prize
in
the
automotive
competition
just
recently,
so
that
was
a
a
very
big
deal
and
they're
on
the
Move
they're
doing
wonderful
things
and
they
do
the
it's
a
it's
a
very
important
part
of
the
student
lives.
You
know
I
mean
that
they
have
there
so.
A
We
don't
have
any
we've
communicated
all
night,
traditional
public
comments.
We
don't
have
any
of
those
either
schedule
a
board
meeting
says
a
change
in
that
Mr
githar.
Please.
Thank
you.
Mrs
Lynch
