C
Good
evening
and
I
don't
usually
say
anything
before
I
do
this,
but
I
ran
into
well
and
I
got
an
email
from
an
old
friend
of
mine
who
said
you're
getting
a
wonderful
New,
School,
Board
member
and
Chatham
and
I
said
really
well.
I
am
swearing
her
in
so
it's
sort
of
exciting
to
get
to
do
that.
I'm
gonna
ask
her.
C
Thank
you
for
coming
up,
because
I
was
forgetting
to
do
that
for
Miss
bridenstein
and
her
husband
and
her
beautiful
daughters
to
be
up
here
with
her
I'm
grateful
to
all
the
school
board
members
and
Miss
broadenstein
for
their
willingness
to
serve
and
for
all
the
candidates
for
their
willingness
to
serve.
C
This
is
a
big
job
and
I'm
I'm
thrilled
that
enthusiastic
smart
people
want
to
do
it,
so
we
will
get
started.
Do
you
want
to
hold
the
Bible?
Yes,
you'll
place
your
left
hand
on
the
Bible
and
raise
your
right.
You
guys
want
to
help.
D
C
The
Constitution
and
the
laws
of
the
United
States,
the

and
the

Chatham
County
Board
of
Education.
As

of
the
Chatham
County
Board
of
Education.
So.
F
A
B
A
B
B
We'll
consider
ourselves
back
in
Open,
Session
I
want
to
thank
everybody
for
being
here.
I
know:
you've
got
lots
of
principles
scattered
out
there
among
you
too,
so
you
get
an
opportunity,
tell
them
how
much
we
appreciate
them
because
we
sure
do
they.
They
do
a
really
good
job.
I
see
one
standing
back.
B
There
I
saw
a
Twitter
feed
where
Dr
Savage
got
slammed
one
day
last
week,
so
I
I
checked
when
I
came
in
to
see
if
he
still
had
any
heading
around
behind
the
ears
or
anything
he
was
clean,
so
we're
good.
So
our
principals
do
a
really
good
job,
all
our
staff
yeah.
So
thank
you
all
very
much.
All
of
you
for
being
here,
Mr,
Hamm
I
will
turn
it
over
to
you.
B
F
B
F
H
Between
Mr
chair
just
very
quickly,
we
have
some
recognitions
tonight,
but
also
we
want,
as
I
indicated
at
the
last
meeting.
I
would
like
to
share
with
you
and
I
believe
I
have
some
items
to
put
up
just
some
of
the
exciting
things
that
go
on
in
our
school
system
on
a
regular
basis.
H
This
past
a
month
we
We've
celebrated
our
arts
and
education
week.
You'll
see
a
great
picture
up
there.
If
you
just
start
scrolling
through
the
second
one
is
our
Chatham
Education
Foundation
presentation.
We
have
an
excellent
group.
H
Let
me
go
back
to
the
Arts
and
education,
the
ukuleles,
that's
a
big
part
of
our
our
student
experience
and
really
exposing
those
kids,
and
this
Chestnut
really
does
a
great
job
with
that
next
picture
is
our
Education
Foundation
presentation,
where
our
our
Education
Foundation
really
does
a
great
job,
supporting
our
schools
and
and
meeting
on
a
regular
basis
to
provide
us
with
the
support
we
need
put
specifically
this
year
with
our
AVID
program.
H
H
We
gave
our
first
Power
of
one
award
and
that
went
to
Mrs
burko
at
Jordan
Matthews
high
school
next
I
had
the
opportunity
to
speak
with
the
Rotary
Club
of
Pittsboro
great
presentation
and
at
the
conclusion
of
that
presentation,
they
asked
what
can
we
do
to
help
schools
and
so
we're
working
on
building
that
capacity
out
with
that
group
as
well
and
and
there's
a
second
group
that
meets
in
the
evening
as
well,
that
we're
going
to
have
to
make
connections
with
as
well?
H
Next,
the
band
showcase
was
at
sleep
with
high
school
this
year,
and
it
was
absolutely
amazing.
H
The
most
amazing
was
the
opening
where
all
of
our
bands
came
together
and
played
the
national
anthem
and
really
really
did
a
great
job,
but
it
was
well
attended,
and
this
is
the
second
time
we've
had
it
at
Seaport.
Very
well
done.
H
Next
one,
the
I.T
Professionals
Day,
we
are
very,
very
lucky
to
have
not
only
great
I.T
Professionals
in
the
district,
but
we
have
a
strong
commitment
to
it
in
our
community,
with
several
retirees
who
support
our
I.T
professionals
with
their
thought
capacity
and
and
support
as
we
move
along
so
they're
in
our
schools.
Volunteering
supporting,
but
also
our
I.T
professionals,
do
a
great
job.
H
Managing
and
keeping
all
of
those
devices
going
every
single
day
and
our
machines
going
I
will
say
that
over
the
the
weekend
of
the
hurricane,
our
generators
went
out
and
our
service
went
out.
Those
guys
were
here
they,
but
when
we
got
back
on
Monday
with
a
few
glitches,
we
were
back
up
and
running.
You
really
didn't
know,
but
they
worked
the
entire
time
to
make
sure
that
we
were
ready
and
that
our
schools
were
ready
on
Monday
morning
next
next,
one
please
assistant
principal
Academy.
H
We
are
in
fact,
building
capacity
and
trying
to
begin
the
work
of
creating
what
we
call
succession
planning
for
next
generation
of
of
leaders
in
our
district
next
next
one
please,
we
started
a
weekly
show
called
the
60
seconds
with
the
superintendent
and
we
will
do
it
hopefully
weekly,
but
at
best
twice
a
month
where
we
just
celebrate
outstanding
things
going
on
in
the
skill
system.
Next
one
please
the
celebration
of
success
Ceremony.
This
is
the
first
time
we
did
this.
H
We
had
about
53
I,
believe
students
who
completed
the
El
tested
out
of
our
ell
program,
meaning
that
they
were
they
demonstrated
Mastery
of
English
to
do
so,
and
that
was
a
great
celebration
with
those
families
on
a
Saturday
morning
at
the
AG
Center
next
slide,
our
PTA
thrift
store.
It's
been
widely
reported,
but
I
was
just
absolutely
amazed.
They
donated
well
over
a
half
million
dollars
to
our
schools,
629
437,
to
be
exact,
and
so
our
32
857
volunteer
hours
for
our
school.
H
This
this
is
a
partnership
that
I
I
can
tell
you
I've
just
never
seen
before.
This
is
absolutely
a
model
for,
if
not
the
state,
the
nation.
Next
next
slide,
I
met
with
our
NAACP
leaders
from
both
ends
of
the
County,
just
as
a
matter
of
checking
in
and
making
sure
that
we
were
all
on
the
same
page
in
terms
of
expectations
and
discussions
around
the
work
that
we
do
with
students
and
in
our
community,
our
next
next
slide,
and
then
we
had
you'll
hear
about
this.
H
Our
educate
of
Excellence
or
EC
was
named
this
month
and
I
think
I
have
one
more
and
our
national
custodians
appreciation
day
was
October
3rd.
We
have
some
of
the
absolute
best
custodians
in
in
the
I
would
say
on
the
planet.
H
These
guys
really
do
a
great
job
and
again,
during
the
hurricane
weekend,
they
were
at
schools,
making
sure
that
schools
were
ready
for
children
on
Monday
morning,
and
so
that
makes
a
big
difference
and
they're
so
very
proud
of
our
schools
and
I
was
at
Bennett
today
and
really
just
looking
at
just
the
care
that
goes
into
even
buildings
that
are
older,
makes
a
big
difference,
and
so
we
applaud
them
and
I
want
to
give
them
a
big
thing
for
just
the
work
that
they
do.
H
It's
it's
pretty
amazing
and
some
of
them
are
pretty
funny
too.
They
give
me
a
hard
time,
I
think
there's
one
last
slide:
I
I
spent
some
time
with
our
student
body
at
secret,
High
School
and
they
see
Perth
is
still
going
through
a
series
of
first
and
I.
Think
I
was
their
first.
H
They
wanted
me
to
be
their
first
guest
speaker
for
their
student
advisory,
so
I
was
pleased
to
go
there
and
really
just
talk
about
how
we
grow
and
and
really
the
journey
from
that
seat
to
any
seat
that
they
choose,
and
so
it
was
really
great
I'm
glad
to
see
Kyle
Stenson
back
here
tonight.
Kyle
is
one
of
the
students
over
there
great
student
leader
there.
H
Next
one
and
then
our
our
E3
team,
our
Equity
Team,
continues
to
meet
and
to
work
through
the
work
that
we
do
in
terms
of
being
very
clear
about
supporting
all
students
in
the
district
and
doing
the
work
that
that
makes
it
an
effective
and
and
an
essential
place
and
a
comfortable
place
for
all
students
to
come
and
learn
our
next
slide
and
then
you'll
also
hear
about
our
Equity
Champion
tonight.
H
Miss
L'oreal,
Edmondson
and
I
always
watch
when
somebody
is
named
and
all
of
their
colleagues
just
pour
on
how
important
they
are
and
what
impact
they're
making
on
children
and
their
families,
and
we
heard
an
awful
lot
about
Miss
Edmondson
and
her
work
and
you'll
hear
a
little
more
tonight.
Next
one
and
then
our
Avid
programs,
as
this
board
agreed
last
year,
to
expand
our
AVID
program.
So
you
can
see
the
work
that's
going
on
in
terms
of
getting
those
programs
off
the
ground.
H
We
trained
our
teachers
this
summer
and
now
those
teachers
are
implementing
in
the
Pro
in
the
classrooms,
across
the
district,
at
our
middle
schools
and
across
our
six
through
12
Spectrum.
So
we're
excited
to
see
the
program
take
off
and
with
the
support
from
our
foundation
and
all
the
other
things
I
think
we're
going
to
be
in
great
shape.
Next
one
please
and
our
our
office
professionals
had
a
what's
called
three
Waters
Cafe
scholarship
fundraiser.
H
H
So
those
of
you
who
really
love
coffee,
I'm
going
to
encourage
you
to
stop
by
and
have
a
cup
of
coffee
when
they're
back
again
and
doing
the
work
and
I
think
that's
it
and
that's
it
for
our
our
look
back
for
for
the
month.
H
We
have
a
few
recognitions
tonight
that
I'd
like
to
share
with
you
tonight
is
National
principles
month
and
we
honor
our
principles
for
the
work
that
they
do.
I
can
tell
you
that
I
was
a
principal
for
14
years,
and
the
work
has
was
difficult
then,
but
the
work
is
far
more
difficult
now
and
so
I
tell
our
principals
constantly
that
I
respect
the
work
that
they
do
and
I
want
to
make
sure
that
I'm
their
biggest
cheerleader
and
supporter
as
they
try
to
do
right
by
children
every
single
day.
H
My
promise
to
them
was
that
I
would
never
say
to
them
when
I
was
a
principal,
because
the
the
winds
have
changed
quite
a
bit.
Next,
we'll
have
our
beginning
teacher
of
the
year
recognition
I'm
gonna
turn
that
over
to
Dr
Kelly
Batten.
H
I

meets

board.
It
gives
me
great
pleasure
to

High

I
And
again,
miss
Boone
is
presenting
to
each
of
them
a
special
token
gift
card
from
our
association
of
retired
Educators.
So
thank
you
to
our
retirees
as
well.
J
Good
evening,
Mr
chairman
member
of
the
board,
members
of
the
board,
so,
as
we
shared
last
month,
our
parent
advisory
council
is
recognizing
two
staff
members
every
month
for
the
work
they
do
and
supporting
our
students
with
special
needs.
And
this
month
the
two
folks
recognized
are
Mrs
Morgan,
Brewer
and
Mrs
Miss
Larissa,
Dowdy,
Miss
Brewer,
couldn't
be
with
us
tonight.
J
But
one
thing
that
was
noted
on
her
nomination
was
that
she
supports
all
students,
and
the
word
in
the
hallway
is,
if
you
need
help,
just
go:
ask
Miss,
Brewer
and,
as
I
read
that
out
loud
in
her
classroom.
When
we
delivered
her
basket,
the
students
were
saying:
yep,
that's
right,
so
that
was
great
to
see
the
students
affirming
that
as
well
and
Miss
Dowdy,
who
is
here
with
us
tonight,.
J
J
Those
are
our
neediest
children
and
she
goes
in
there
every
day,
with
a
smile
on
her
face
and
doesn't
hesitate
to
put
forth
anything
those
children
need
and
then,
when
she's
done,
she
goes
to
the
YMCA
and
she
takes
care
of
those
children
too,
and
just
to
make
sure
before
she
leaves
the
schoolhouse.
She
goes
back
to
her
classroom
to
make
sure
it
is
ready
for
those
children.
We
have
a
long-term
sub
as
a
teacher
in
that
classroom
and
she
has
really
taken
the
lead
in
making
sure
those
students
have
such
a
successful
year.
J
Each
year
the
North
Carolina
Department
of
Public
instructions,
EC
division,
recognizes
outstanding
EC,
educators
of
excellence
and
one
EC
teacher
from
each
school
district
is
recognized.
This
year,
Miss
Campbell
was
nominated
and
selected
to
represent
Chatham
County
Schools.
She
will
be
recognized
the
beginning
of
November
at
the
DPI
conference
and
again
another
pillar
of
our
community.
She
has
been
teaching
EC
students
at
Bon
Lee
for
22
years.
J
Well,
of
course
you
would
recognize
her
because
of
course,
she's
the
best
one
thing
that
I
loved
when
I
was
working
in
my
office,
Miss
Roberson,
who
is
my
right
hand,
left
hand
and
brain
said
you
know
I,
don't
think
she's
ever
turned
in
anything
late
in
that
Chrissy's
been
there
for
14
years,
so
for
her
to
say
that
that's
pretty
significant
and
to
make
that
kind
of
growth
with
children
year
after
year
after
year
is
greatly
appreciated.
So
Miss
Kimmy.
H
This
time
we'll
have
Mr
Chris
Poston
come
forward
for
our
excellence
and
opportunity
champion.
L
Good
evening,
Mr,
chairman
and
members
of
the
Board
of
Education
I'm
here
to
share
our
September
excellence
and
opportunity.
Champ
first
I
wanted
to
share
our
definition
of
equity
in
Chatham
County.
Our
Equity
commitment
is
to
make
sure
that
we
reduce
the
predictability
of
who
succeeds
and
who
fails
interrupt
practices
that
negatively
impact
diverse
students
in
school
settings
and
cultivate
the
unique
and
special
gifts
of
every
student.
So
our
September
Equity
Champion
is
miss
Iris,
Robertson,
Ms,
Robertson.
L
And
Miss
Robertson
received
two
nominations
from
the
staff
at
North
Chatham.
They
complimented
Miss,
Robertson's
classroom
for
being
caring
and
loving.
They
wrote
Ms
Robinson
engages
all
of
her
students
with
great
respect
when
she
expects
she
expects
all
of
her
students
to
return
that
respect
to
each
other.
Her
classroom
is
clear
and
warm
with
high
expectations
for
all
students
and
she
demonstrates
that
she
cares
deeply
for
all
of
her
students.
Thank
you
so
much
Miss
Robertson
for
working
to
cultivate
the
gifts
of
all
of
our
students
in
Chatham,
County
Schools,
who
appreciate
you.
L
L
B
Each
speaker
will
receive
three
minutes
and
just
wanted
to
ask
you:
we've
got
10
so
we'll
move
along
with
not
supposed
to
exceed
30
minutes,
but
we'll
we'll
hear
everybody
and
I'll
call
one
name
and
if,
if
the
next
person
would
just
slide
over
to
the
side
here,
so
that
they're
ready
to
go
that'll
speed
things
up
very
much
so
first
on
our
list
is
Krista
Millard
and
Terry.
Overgaard
would
be
next.
B
M
Ard,
my
children
have
attended
traditional
public
schools
in
Chatham
County
since
kindergarten.
My
daughter
is
in
her
second
year
at
NC
State.
My
son
is
a
senior
at
Northwood.
I
am
here
to
support
our
current
school
board
and
voice
my
opposition
to
the
parents.
First
movement
currently
making
noise
within
our
community.
These
groups
use
words
like
Liberty
and
freedom
to
ban
books
and
impose
their
religious
ideologies
into
public
school
curricula
and
other
communities
and
I.
M
Don't
want
that
to
happen
here,
I
believe
in
one
Chatham
for
all
students
putting
parents
first
will
not
help
our
students
succeed.
Our
current
School
Board
puts
students.
First,
adding
noise
to
our
school
board
will
not
help
our
students
succeed,
but
bring
non-relevant
conversations
into
student
education
that
do
not
impact
student
growth
or
achievement.
Banning
books
such
as
girls
who
code
and
Of
Mice
and
Men,
will
not
help
our
students
succeed.
M
Parents
reviewing
social
studies,
curriculum
written
by
the
state
of
North
Carolina,
will
not
help
our
students
succeed.
What
will
help
our
students
succeed,
focusing
on
giving
our
students
the
resources
they
need
to
graduate
and
go
on
to
bright
and
prosperous
Futures?
This
has
been
and
should
always
be,
the
focus
of
the
current
Board
of
Education
members.
Expanding
programs
like
Avid,
which
are
current
school
board
members,
voted
to
do
expanding
programs
that
increase
the
percentage
of
students
reading
on
grade
level
by
third
grade,
an
early
indicator
of
high
school
Success
and
on-time
graduation.
M
This
has
been
the
focus
of
our
current
school
board
members
supporting
our
teachers
and
respecting
the
teaching
profession,
pushing
for
salary
increases
for
our
teachers,
so
we
can
recruit
and
retain
high
quality
teachers
in
every
classroom.
As
a
community,
we
should
spend
our
efforts
pushing
the
state
to
be
accountable
and
push
for
more
funding.
If
the
legislature
would
fund
the
already
approved
remediation
plan
for
North
Carolina
Public
Schools
Leandro,
which
this
board
of
education
passed
a
resolution
on
last
year,
Chatham
County
Schools
would
have
an
additional
8
18.7
million
dollars
to
spend.
M
N
Hello,
my
name
is
Carrie
Overgaard
and
I
have
lived
in
Chatham
County
for
just
about
30
years.
I
think
this
month
and
I
I
don't
have
children
in
the
school
system.
I'm,
not
a
parent,
but
I
wanted
to
speak
out
in
support
of
our
current
School.
Our
Board
of
Education
today,
on
behalf
of
those
of
us
who
recognize
that
our
children
are
our
future
and
they
will
need
to
be
well
prepared
for
today's
world.
N
I
have
when
I
moved
to
Bynum
30
plus
years
ago.
There
were
no
children
running
around,
but
in
the
time
that
I've
been
there
at
one
point,
I
counted
and
there
was
like
35
children.
So
we
went
from
none
to
35
and
so
I've
watched
my
neighbors
and
my
community
raise
their
children.
N
They
all
went
to
Chatham,
County,
Public,
Schools
and
now
they're,
starting
to
go
to
college
and
from
what
I
have
seen
and
witnessed
I
think
they're
well
prepared
to
do
that
and
I
think
their
education
in
Chatham
County
did
that
for
them
the
one
of
the
things
that
I
wanted
to
talk
about
in
terms
of
continuing
education
and
the
training
that
is
being
offered
to
the
teachers
here,
I
was
a
nurse.
N
I
am
a
nurse
once
your
nurse
You're,
always
a
nurse,
and
we
were
required
every
year
to
do
annual
updates.
We
had
to
have
so
many
continuing
education
units
in
order
to
have
our
license
renewed
every
couple
of
years
and
that
made
for
better
outcomes
for
our
patients,
shorter
hospital
stays.
N
We
sometimes
measure
a
good
outcome
and
a
bad
outcome
if
the
patient
dies
or
doesn't
die,
but
we,
when
you
have
a
staff
that
is
well
educated
and
you
just
have
better
outcomes.
People
get
well
sooner.
N
They
get
out
of
the
hospital
sooner
they
they
continue
to
thrive
in
their
communities,
and
I
have
to
believe
that
that
is
the
same
for
teachers,
that
with
training
ongoing
training
and
whatever
areas
that
the
the
school
board
wants
them
to
have
or
continuing
education
units
that
they
get
on
their
own
time,
that
that
has
to
provide
for
us
better
education
outcomes
for
our
children
and
and
that's
pretty
much.
What
I
wanted
to
say
tonight.
Thank.
F
K
Good
evening
board,
my
name
is
Sarah
D'amato
I
am
a
parent
to
to
children
who
are
sitting
in
the
audience
tonight,
as
we
sometimes
have
to
do
as
parents
in
the
three
minutes
that
I
am
given
to
speak
this
evening,
I
would
first
like
to
thank
the
board
for
your
steadfatness
steadfastness
and
your
commitment
to
Chatham
County
schools
in
the
past
few
months,
especially
in
light
of
all
of
these
accomplishments
that
you
have
done.
K
You've
achieved
great
things,
and
yet
there
are
attempts
to
just
diminish
those
accomplishments
and
distract
from
the
work
ahead
of
you.
Secondly,
I'd
like
to
speak
as
to
my
wishes
for
the
board
and
for
Chatham
County
Schools
as
a
parent.
I
also
want
to
assure
you
that
I
do
not
expect
any
response
from
you
right
now.
K
Board
policy
has
always
been
that
the
board
sits
and
listens,
and
any
attempts
to
suggest
that
your
lack
of
a
response
to
me
indicates
that
you
are
not
taking
my
voice,
and
my
considerations
and
concerns
is
merely
an
attempt
to
diminish
your
work
on
that
board.
The
recent
report
that
came
out
about
Chatham
County
Schools
showed
that
we
actually
did
really
well
all
things
considered
in
general,
Chatham,
County
Schools.
This
board
acknowledged
the
needs
of
our
students.
K
This
board
looked
at
everything
and
carefully
considered
it
and
holistically
considered
what
our
needs
were
for
Chatham,
County
Schools,
this
board
said
hey,
you
know
what
we
might
need
to
send
our
kids
back
to
school
in
person
sooner
than
Orange
County
and
sooner
than
Durham
County,
and
that
caused
a
little
bit
of
a
riff,
but
y'all
knew
that
that
was
what
Chatham
County
Schools
needed
in
that
moment
and
as
a
parent
I.
Thank
you
that
you
were
able
to
during
that
time.
K
Center
always
what
the
children
of
Chatham
County
Schools
needed,
despite
what
we
were
hearing
otherwise
from
other
people
who
wanted
to
issue
their
opinions
as
to
how
you
should
be
doing
your
work.
Secondly,
I
want
to
take
this
opportunity
to
use
this
pulpit
to
share
my
wish
for
Chatham
County
Schools
moving
forward
during
the
last
meeting.
This
pulpit
became
a
space
where
some
individuals
used
their
faith
as
a
basis
to
support
ideals
that
do
not
move
Chatham
towards
peace
and
prosperity.
K
K
K
Okay
and
we
talked
about
the
to
seek
peace
and
prosperity,
and
so
therefore
I
ask
you
Chatham
County
Schools
to
always
put
that.
First,
we
don't
need
the
Bible
in
the
schools.
What
we
need
are
the
ideas
of
seeking
peace
and
prosperity
that
we
have
prosperity
for
all
children
in
our
community,
all
children
and
that's
how
we
move
forward.
Thank
you.
O
Good
evening
I'm
Brenda,
Moody
A
concerned
grandparent
and
lifetime
lifelong
Chatham
resident
I
am
an
advocate
for
all
children
to
be
treated
fairly
and
to
receive
an
excellent
education
in
our
schools.
Some
of
our
administrators
would
have
you
believe.
The
plan
is
not
to
incorporate
CRT,
also
called
Equity
training
into
our
education
system,
although
until
about
a
month
ago,
I
could
access
the
schedule
of
the
training
plus
some
of
the
slides
and
details
that
Public
Access
has
now
been
removed
from
the
school
website,
which
I
assume
is
to
hide.
The
agenda.
O
I
will
read
to
you
the
alliance
defending
Freedom's
view
on
critical
race,
Theory
and
the
Constitution
schools
that
Implement
policies
and
practices
based
on
CRT
or
anti-racism
likely
violate
the
Constitutional
and
civil
rights
of
the
students,
faculty
and
staff
who
are
forced
to
participate.
Crt
creates
a
hostile
environment
when
it
is
implemented
to
classify
students
as
oppressor
or
oppressed,
simply
because
of
their
skin
color
or
ethnic
Heritage,
and
to
advocate
for
students
to
be
treated
differently
based
on
race.
O
This
classification
violates
a
child's
right
to
equal
treatment
when
any
descent
from
CRT
is
labeled
as
racism,
students,
teachers
and
administrators
can
be
threatened
and
punished
based
on
their
beliefs
becoming
victims
of
viewpoint.
Discrimination
when
students,
teachers
or
administrators
are
compelled
under
threat
of
punishment
to
affirm
statements
like
America,
is
fundamentally
racist
or
to
confess
White,
Privilege
or
implicit
bias.
O
Their
freedom
of
speech
is
violated,
Advocates
of
critical
race,
Theory,
often
label
Christianity
as
a
dominant
identity
and
an
aspect
of
white
dominant
culture
that
has
oppressed,
subordinate,
non-Christian
religions,
CRT
inspired
curricula
can
instruct
students
to
make
daily
choices
to
work
against
or
dismantle
dominant
identities
like
Christianity
students,
teachers
and
administrators
who
are
Christian
will
likely
suffer
religious
discrimination
as
a
result.
In
conclusion,
critical
race
theory
is
a
toxic
ideology
that
views
everything
through
the
lens
of
race
and
power.
While
many
in
our
culture
today
hold
out,
CRT
is
the
way
to
fight
racism.
O
It
only
perpetuates
racism
by
advocating
to
for
disparate
treatment
based
on
race.
We
should
teach
children
to
love
their
neighbors
and
to
view
other
classmates
as
potential
friends,
not
potential
enemies
in
a
racial
power
struggle.
We
must
stand
for
the
Dignity
of
all
human
beings.
We
must
stand
up
for
parental
rights
and
other
fundamental
freedoms.
We
must
continue
to
strive
for
an
America
in
which
all
people
are
judged
by
their
character,
not
the
color
of
their
skin,
and
we
must
remember
the
words
of
Dr
King.
Darkness
cannot
drive
out
Darkness
only
light
can
do
that.
O
Hate
cannot
drive
out
hate.
Only
love
can
do
that.
America
isn't
perfect,
but
racism
is
not
defeated
by
more
racism.
Injustice
is
not
Remedy.
By
placing
people
in
the
categories
of
oppressor
and
depressed,
we
should
not
teach
children
to
discriminate
based
on
outer
characteristics,
but
instead
teach
them
to
treat
all
people
with
dignity
and
respect.
Thank
you.
E
Good
evening,
Mr
board
or
Mr
chair
members
of
the
board
superintendent
Jackson
who's,
also
known
by
my
students
as
the
big
cheese
of
Chatham
County,
and
to
the
the
leadership
team
as
a
parent
volunteer
and
educator
I
come
before
you
tonight
to
say.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
for
choosing
to
work
tirelessly
for
Chatham
County
Schools.
Thank
you
for
making
the
hard
agonizing
decisions
that
you
can't
pay
me
to
make.
Thank
you
for
keeping
our
students
at
the
Forefront
of
your
decisions.
Thank
you
for
supporting
the
faculty
and
staff
of
Chatham
County
Schools.
E
Thank
you
for
being
visible
in
our
schools.
Thank
you
for
recognizing
our
hard
work
and
dedication
to
Chatham
County
Schools.
Thank
you
for
the
time
and
dedication
to
students,
faculty
and
families
of
Chatham
County.
Thank
you
for
always
being
so
professional.
My
thank
yous
are
endless.
I
could
go
on
all
night,
so
I'll
just
stop
there
as
an
active
member
of
Chatham,
County
Schools
since
1996
as
an
educator
and
or
a
volunteer
and
a
mother
of
three
children
who
I
am
proud
to
say,
are
CCS
alumni.
E
Our
current
leadership
is
one
of,
if
not
the
best.
We
have
had
since
I
first
became
involved
with
Chatham
County
Schools.
As
you
all
know,
one
of
our
dedicated
leaders
we
are
blessed
to
have
is
Mr
Poston.
He
is
such
an
asset
to
Chatham
County
Schools
I
first
met
him
when
he
was
principal
at
Pittsboro,
Elementary
School,
when
my
children
were
there,
Mr
Poston
is
as
genuine
as
they
come,
as
you
know,
and
I
know,
but
some
others
may
not
realize.
Mr.
E
Poston's
role
includes
Avid,
which
is
the
advancement
via
individual
determination,
I'm
at
an
avid
school,
and
it's
proof.
It
works
dual
language,
Community
engagement,
Boys
and
Girls
Club
Communities,
In
Schools.
Many
of
my
students
benefit
from
communities
and
schools
just
to
name
a
few.
It
doesn't
matter
what
task
Mr
person
has
given.
He
goes
above
and
beyond
to
not
only
complete
the
task,
but
surpass
expectations
in
doing
so.
Mr
Poston
is
very
visible
in
the
schools
always
has
a
smile
and
genuinely
cares.
He
will
stop
to
speak.
E
If
I
greatly
appreciate
all
of
his
support
and
I
am
sure,
there's
many
other
Educators
and
administrators
that
also
appreciate
it
him
again,
I
can't
express
in
words
my
deep
gratitude
and
appreciation
for
all
of
you.
I
am
extremely
proud
and
blessed
to
live
in
Chatham
County
have
my
children
become
Chatham,
County,
School
alum,
and
not
only
to
work
once
for
Chatham's
County
Schools,
but
twice
I
praise
God
daily
for
the
strong
leadership
we
are
blessed
with
here
in
Chatham,
County
I
hold
each
and
every
one
of
you
in
my
daily
prayers.
Thank
you.
P
Good
evening
my
name
is
Julie
Ricker
and
I'm,
a
parent
of
two
students
attending
a
Chatham
County
Elementary
School.
We
have
loved
being
a
part
of
that
school
Community.
P
P
I
have
always
received
prompt
and
thorough
responses
when
I
have
contacted
staff
at
our
school
and
at
the
County
office
in
a
district
rapidly
growing
as
ours.
It
has
always
amazed
me
to
get
a
return
phone
call
or
a
personal
email
response
to
my
inquiries
or
comments.
I
see
continued
efforts
at
improving
communication
with
stakeholders
in
an
effort
to
keep
others
well
informed
and
opportunities
give
us
opportunities
for
feedback
through
the
Chatham
County
Schools
website
social
media
pages
and
parent
University
sessions.
P
P
Secondly,
I
want
to
tell
you
how
much
our
family
values
the
work
that
you're
doing
through
your
E3
initiative,
equity
and
Excellence
for
everyone
or
excellent
opportunity.
We
strongly
believe
in
them
and
and
and
have
an
immense
value
of
diversity
in
our
schools,
and
we
fully
support
your
efforts
to
ensure
that
all
students
in
the
county
receive
a
high
quality
education.
We
Believe
education
should
expand
our
worlds,
not
limit
them.
So
I
am
thankful
for
every
opportunity.
P
The
one
Chatham
Focus,
where
intentional
work
is
being
done
to
make
sure
that
every
school
across
our
county
is
offering
the
best
opportunities
to
every
student
I
see
one
Chatham
is
a
chance
for
us
for
our
County
to
work
together
in
support
of
all
staff
and
students,
I
hope
to
see
us
all
rise
to
this
challenge.
Thank
you
for
this
opportunity
and
thank
you
for
the
work
you
do
every
day
for
our
students.
D
Good
evening
Dr
Jackson
chairman
members
of
the
Chatham
County
Board
of
Education,
my
name
is
Brooke
Davis.
My
husband
and
I
have
been
residents
of
Chatham
County
for
11
years
and
have
three
children
in
three
Chatham
County
Schools.
Our
five
lives
have
grown
and
continue
to
be
transformed
by
our
beautiful,
diverse
and
growing
County.
D
I
have
been
witness
to
the
positive
impact
that
public
education,
teachers
and
administrators
and
schools
have
not
only
on
individual
lives
but
entire
communities.
My
parents
were
all
public
school
Educators
for
35
plus
years.
Each
and
I
attended
public
school
I
understand
the
time
and
energy
given
by
teachers,
staff
and
administration,
as
well
as
individuals
that
volunteer
their
time
on
school
boards
and
parent-teacher
associations
I.
Thank
you.
D
Each
for
yours,
public
schools
are
an
integral
part
of
any
community
and
as
residents
we
have
a
vested
interest
in
supporting
all
students
in
becoming
productive
members
of
society
in
future
workplaces.
This
includes
adapting
to
substantial
growth
and
change
within
our
area
and
Beyond.
Recently,
the
operations,
research
and
education
laboratory
of
NC
State
forecasted
an
influx
of
roughly
3
000
students
into
Chatham
County
Schools
over
the
next
10
years.
D
It
is
time
to
think
big
and
act
boldly
providing
opportunities
for
individual
students
to
succeed
in
overall
student
performance
to
improve
I.
Thank
the
current
board
for
keeping
these
priorities
in
mind.
When
you
become
part
of
a
community,
as
my
family
did
in
Chatham,
you
have
an
obligation
to
move
that
Community
forward.
Yes,
we
are
all
individuals,
but
we
are
individuals
living
in
Collective
Community,
hoping
to
make
it
better
for
all
who
live
here.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
Attentiveness
and
service.
B
H
Q
Okay
good
evening,
I
have
one
child
at
Sea.
Fourth,
and
one
who
just
graduated
from
Northwood
she's
now
at
UNC
I'm
here
to
say
thanks
to
these
board
members
who
are
committed
to
the
success
of
the
students
in
this
rapidly
growing
County
I'm
here,
because
I
care
about
balanced
education
and
fair
teacher
compensation.
Q
Recently,
there's
been
some
noise
in
our
community
about
putting
parents
first
and
putting
parents
first
will
not
help
our
children
succeed.
What
helps
kids
succeed
are
excellent
teachers,
so
let's
increase
the
salaries,
so
we
can
recruit
the
best.
Expanding
programs
such
as
avid
increasing
reading
opportunities
and
addressing
diversity,
equity
and
inclusion,
and
that's
not
rhetoric
for
CRTs,
has
been
suggested.
Q
Banning
books
and
trying
to
distract
people
with
concepts
of
CRT
is
not
helping
our
students
succeed.
Those
opposed
to
diversity
and
Equity
training
are
using
fear
to
coerce
voters,
parents
and
community
members
that
our
kids
are
being
brainwashed
and
that's
that's
not
true.
Access
to
a
variety
of
perspectives
is
what
makes
students
succeed
to
think
critically
and
to
develop
compassion,
and
we
all
want
that
for
our
kids.
I
encourage
our
communities
to
support
our
current
Board
of
Education
and
continue
to
move
forward
to
provide
a
respectful,
safe
and
nurturing
School
environment
for
all
students,
staff.
R
Good
evening
my
name
is
Emily
Boynton
and
I'm.
The
parent
of
two
students
in
Chatham
County
Schools,
our
last
11
years
in
Chatham
County
schools
has
been
very
positive,
both
for
my
kids
as
students
and
for
my
husband
and
I
as
parents.
That's
not
to
say
that
I
haven't
had
concerns
or
issues
over
the
years
or
reasons
to
reach
out
to
teachers
or
administrators,
because
I
have
and
when
I
have
my
questions
and
concerns,
as
well
as
any
ideas
or
recommendations.
R
I
have
made
have
always
been
met
with
an
open-minded
respect
and
a
willingness
for
discussion.
In
fact,
my
impression,
my
impression
of
this
entire
Community
parents,
teachers,
administrators
and
board
members,
is
that
we
have
always
found
a
way
to
work
together
in
problem
solve
and
a
respectful,
thoughtful
nonpartisan
way.
That
is
why
I
find
it
so
hard
to
comprehend.
R
I
am
also
shocked
by
the
the
apparent
unwillingness
of
some
of
the
folks
in
attendance
to
work
with
their
school
administrators
or
staff
when
they
had
a
problem.
Instead,
they
chose
to
come
to
the
school
board
meeting
and
to
directly
attack
the
board,
never
giving
their
school
administrators
a
chance,
and
that
is
the
reason.
I
am
here
to
ignite,
to
express
my
frustration
and
dismay
and
to
stand
with
the
many
Chatham
County
parents
and
Guardians
here
tonight
that
share
these
concerns
and
who
want
to
offer
support
to
our
current
School
Board.
R
I
hope
our
Greater
Community
recognizes
this
and
will
stand
behind
and
uplift
uplift
the
positive
work
our
district
is
doing
to
support
all
students
and
I
also
want
to
add
one
little
positive
thing
that
came
from
Horton
recently
from
the
principal
they
met
or
exceeded
growth
in
all
student
groups
for
grades.
Six
through
eight,
which
is.
F
S
Hello,
my
name
is
Jennifer
Adams
and
I'm.
The
parent
of
two
Northwood
students
and
I
want
to
talk
about
this
local
attention.
We've
been
getting
about,
what's
being
taught
in
our
schools.
First
of
all,
it's
worth
mentioning
that
I've
spent
a
lot
of
time
in
classrooms
as
a
parent
volunteer,
I
volunteered
weekly
in
both
of
my
kids
classes
throughout
all
of
their
time
at
Perry,
Harrison
I
served
on
the
PTA
board
in
various
leadership
positions
at
both
Perry
Harrison
and
Pollard.
S
I
said
on
the
school
Improvement
team
for
a
few
years
and
I
even
went
to
a
DPI,
run
focus
group
for
read
to
achieve
when
that
legislation
passed
so
I
think
of
a
pretty
decent
idea
of,
what's
being
taught
in
Chatham
County
Schools.
So
with
that
in
mind,
I'd
like
to
stay
to
the
board
here
to
Dr
Jackson
to
all
of
the
principals
that
are
here
and
all
the
staff
and
administrators
and
teachers.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
for
setting
up
an
environment
where
our
kids
are
able
to
safely
learn
and
grow.
S
Thank
you
for
giving
them
a
foundation
that
sets
them
up
for
success
as
adults,
whether
they
are
College
Bound
or
go
straight
into
the
workforce.
Thank
you
for
doing
everything
in
your
power
to
give
them
teachers
to
engage
them
and
teach
them
how
to
use
their
god-given
gifts
to
the
best
of
their
potential.
S
Thank
you
for
working
within
a
broken
system
of
regulations
handed
down
from
the
state
without
the
funding
to
support
it,
to
still
make
sure
that
our
schools
have
the
resources
needed
for
success,
and
thank
you
for
working
to
make
sure
that
every
student
can
learn
what
their
place
is
in
history
and
how
to
use
that
knowledge
as
adults
to
be
positive,
to
be
a
positive
influence
and
contribute
to
society,
because
that's
really
the
end
goal
right.
So
frankly,
I'm
a
little
bit
confused
as
to
what
all
this
commotion
is
about.
S
What
exactly
is
being
taught
that
is
supposed
to
be
so
offensive
and
scary.
Is
it
that
there
are
people
of
color
in
our
history
who
have
made
meaningful
contributions
despite
centuries
of
Oppression?
Is
it
that
the
system
isn't
yet
fixed
I've,
always
loved
history
and
I'm,
proud
of
my
Southern
Heritage
and
I
wish
that
I
had
learned
those
stories
in
school
because
I
was
missing?
Half
the
story.
S
Unfortunately,
I
didn't
learn
about
madam
CJ
Walker,
who
became
one
of
the
first
one,
women
self-made
millionaires
or
who
has
heard
of
Henry
Blair
I
hadn't,
but
his
invention
in
farming
were
right
up
there
with
a
cotton
gin.
Yet
we
all
know
who
Eli
Whitney
was
or
the
enslaved
person
who,
during
the
Revolutionary
War
taught
us
about
the
African
practice
of
extracting
disease
from
infected
people
and
putting
it
in
healthy
people
for
the
first
time.
S
Thank
goodness
for
him
right,
and
did
you
all
know
that
one
in
four
Cowboys
were
black
helping
to
shape
the
Wild
West?
So
folks,
some
of
our
history
is
ugly.
It
is,
and
we
all
know
that
it
is,
but
we
can't
hide
from
it
and
we
shouldn't
and
by
learning
about
it
we
can
fix
that
broken
system
and
to
the
parents.
Who
may
be
worried
that
your
kids
are
being
taught
that
white
people
are
the
villains
and
that
Christianity
is
evil?
S
F
B
And
we'll
look
at
information
items,
non-traditional
item
a
non-tradition,
traditional
Pathways
for
students,
Dr
Moran
and
Ms
Fowler.
T
Good
evening,
Mr
chairman
members
of
the
board,
we're
here
to
bring
you
some
information
on
the
items
tonight
about
non-traditional
Pathways.
So
we
have
some
information
here
for
go
ahead
and
flip
forward.
T
We,
we
have
some
things
that
we
already
have
in
place
things
that
we've
been
working
on
for
quite
a
while
I'm
I'm,
getting
this
with
them:
dual
language:
Avid,
exceptional
children's
programs,
academic
academically,
gifted
programs,
athletes
who
want
to
do
things
to
make
sure
that
we're
kind
of
meeting
the
needs
of
all
students.
What
we
want
to
talk
about
and
focus
on
tonight
is
this:
the
gray
area
there
and
it's
our
non-traditional.
Pathways
next
slide.
T
We
have
some
of
those
things
already
in
place.
We
have
our
Virtual
Academy
and
that
is
housed
at
Bennett
and
at
Chatham
Central
we'd
have
opportunities
for
dual
enrollment
through
cccc
or
other
universities.
We
have
our
credit
recovery
programs,
but
students
are
they
fill
a
class.
They
can
have
the
chance
to
go
back
and
and
make
that
course
up.
We
are
going
to
spend
a
little
more
time
talking
about
this
one
Academy
there
that's
the
new
information
for
the
evening
and
then
our
early
college,
as
you're
all
familiar
with
next
slide.
T
So
other
areas,
there
sorry
I'm
getting
a
little
old
here
so
I'm
having
a
hard
time,
seeing
it
our
alternative
to
suspension
programs.
Thank
you.
T
T
With
as
you
age,
the
other's
been
there
contacts
that
one
up
close
one
far
away
anyway,
so
we
have
our
evening
Academy
program
that
was
still
in
place
in
Siler
City,
that's
housed
at
the
campus
of
the
Early
College.
We
have
homebound
instruction
when
students
need
those
things
summer,
school
programming,
that
we're
offered
opportunities
for
students
to
do
the
credit
recovery
and
to
do
some
enrichment
for
our
other
students
in
k,
eight
and
then
our
transitions
classroom.
Some
of
that
was
new.
T
This
year
we
expanded
that
we
have
opportunities
for
our
students
who,
with
behavioral
concerns
issues
and
EC
students
who
might
need
additional
support,
are
able
to
receive
Services
there
and
then
alternatives
to
suspension.
A
lot
of
right
at
this
point
are
being
offered
a
kind
of
virtual
way
or
in
the
evening,
Academy
next
slide.
T
There's
a
new
Blended
pre-k
program:
that's
this
year
for
exceptional
children,
Miss
self-worked
self-mattics
worked
really
hard
over
the
past
year
to
get
that
in
place.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
serving
students
on
a
Continuum
for
our
EC
students
and
then
just
really
students
who
just
need
extra
support
next
slide.
T
So
what
we
really
want
to
kind
of
introduce
tonight
is
this
concept
of
one
Academy.
We've
had
Sage
Academy
in
place
for
for
many
years
as
we
started
to
develop
the
Early
College,
it
was
housed
on
the
same
campus.
It
has
had
the
same
staff
members
and
as
that
early
college
grew.
We
also
at
the
same
time
started
offering
the
22
credit
diploma,
which
what
many
of
the
students
at
stage
were
receiving
at
all
the
traditional
high
schools,
so
that
enrollment
and
had
decreased
over
that
time
and
then
with
covid.
T
We
don't
have
any
students
that
had
been
enrolled
over
the
past
couple
years.
We
now
have
some
students
that
are
there
who
were
meeting
some
needs,
but
we
wanted
to
really
think
about
what
it
is
that
our
students
need
today,
with
the
changes
from
covid,
we
have
increased
mental
health
needs.
We
have
students
that
went
to
work.
We
have
a.
T
We
have
a
fair
number
of
students
that
began
working
full-time
during
covid,
so
we
want
to
have
some
things
in
place
that
we
can
offer
flexibility,
not
just
for
our
students
who
are
struggling,
but
for
students
that
may
be
exceeding
and
need
other
kind
of
smaller
settings.
So
the
concept
would
be
having
a
smaller
School,
setting
a
flexible
schedule,
more
in-person
instruction,
personalized
learning,
small
cohorts
and
Hands-On.
T
We
have
many
different
types
of
students
in
our
school
district
and
we
want
to
try
to
make
sure
that
we're
offering
and
meeting
the
needs
of
all
of
our
students
so
next
slide.
So
the
why?
For
one
Academy
we
want
to
like
I
said
we
just
want
to
make
sure
that
we
have
something
in
place.
That
would
be
there
to
meet
the
needs
of
every
student
in
Chatham
County
Schools.
We
have
students
that
need
that
small
setting.
We
have
students
that
need
to
have
opportunities
that
are
just
not
in
place
at
this
point.
T
Some
of
this
I've
already
mentioned
and
regarding
sage
and
in
the
1920
19
2019-20
school
year,
was
the
last
time
they
had
a
full
group
and
because
the
early
colleges
that
continue
to
grow
and
offering
the
22
credit
diploma
for
the
other
high
schools.
So
here
are
some
other
information
there.
Just
that
I
think
probably
I've
mentioned
most
of
these
things
and
covering
the
other
parts
there,
but
we
just
we
have.
We
have
students
that
have
needs.
We
have
students
of
having
a
smaller
place
to
be
able
to
come.
T
We
have
students
that
need
that
kind
of
personalized
instruction.
We
have
students
that
need
to
have
just
the
extra
support
that
they
may
not
have
in
our
traditional
setting.
So
next
slide.
T
Like
I
said
when
we
first
began
the
Early
College,
it
was
on
the
same
campus
sh,
the
staff
that
was
there,
they
transitioned,
and
we
had
new
people-
come
on
on
board
at
the
time
at
that
time
too,
but
that
group
transitioned
to
be
the
staff
of
the
Early
College.
So
there
would
be
a
cost
to
this
because
we're
now
talking
about
a
full,
flourishing
Early
College,
where
we
also
need
to
have
staff
that
would
be
really
specifically
directed
to
work
with
our
one
Academy.
T
We
want
to
make
sure
that
we
had
someone
those
main
content
areas.
Other
staff
members
could
be
shared,
counselors
media
specialists.
Our
hope
would
be
that
we
could
get
this
up
and
running
for
the
next
semester.
T
So
we
definitely
as
we
we
wanted
to
kind
of
change
the
focusing
he
might
ask.
Well,
why
would
we
want
to
change
his
name?
We
had
a
successful
program.
I
know
a
lot
of
you
had
a
lot
of
affinity,
Mr
Dixon
a
lot
of
work
with
sage,
but
this
is
just
kind
of
a
new
thought
that
we
wouldn't
be
just
kind
of
the
same.
Focus
we've
had
before
we'd
be
really
having
a
a
space
that
could
serve
multiple
needs
for
students.
H
Second
semester,
so
we
would,
we
would
work
to
accommodate
them.
We
were
wanting
to
scale
it
right
now.
I
think
we
have
less
than
10
and
ideally
those
students
we
we
would
have
to
scale
it
based
on
the
available
Staffing
and
the
available
resources.
H
One
of
the
things
that
I
really
want
to
make
sure
that
that
we
really
understand
is
instead
of
this
being
a
punishment
for
kids.
We
wanted
to
be
an
opportunity
for
families
to
find
just
a
different
Pathway
to
that
diploma.
H
Fortunately,
and
unfortunately,
not
all
students
can
March
that
same
path
to
the
diploma
and
so
I
think
we've
got
to
think
differently,
and
so
these
Partners
would
help
us.
They
have
expertise
in
these
areas
and,
as
she
indicated,
we
have
students
who
are
dealing
with
the
impact
of
covet.
We
have
families
that
are
dealing
with
other
things
that
aren't
covered
related,
but
their
students
need
a
different
pathway.
We
have
students
who
have
to
work
to
support
their
families.
H
We
have
students
who
have
children,
we
have
students,
so
we
want
to
make
that
we're
not
going
to
punish
you
for
whatever.
That
is
we're
going
to
give
you
a
pathway
to
the
diploma.
We
believe
that
we
can
deliver
it
in
this
way.
We
really
wanted
to
be
very
thoughtful
about
how
we
ramped
back
up
and
not
start
so
we've
got
to
train
our
teachers
and
provide
that.
H
So
we
we
were
using
2025,
really
maybe
30
during
that
first
semester
to
work
through
some
of
the
things
and
as
you
saw,
the
goal
is
for
us
to
serve
approximately
100
students
and.
H
B
B
Okay,
a
number
of
Lies
graduating
seemed
like
34
35,
maybe
at
some
time.
H
Yeah,
after
sooner
those
kids
who
came,
did
that,
and
so
somehow
we,
the
the
the
reputation
began
to
you
know,
because
people
use
that
as
whatever
we
want
to
say
that
about
those
kids
and
we're
trying
to
make
sure
that
we
eliminate
that
as
a
barrier
at
all,
and
so
that's
why
we
rebranded
it
as
as
one
Academy
and
and
really
we
we
sat
around
one
would
be
an
acronym
for
opportunities,
never
end,
and
so
we're
saying
we
want
our
kids
to
have
a
pathway.
H
V
G
A
concern
I
have
that
the
whole
program
in
ideal
is
is
fantastic,
I,
guess
being
the
old
principal.
You
look
at
things,
maybe
in
a
different
light,
but
we
still
have
our
regular
classrooms
that
aren't
fully
staffed
with
our
teachers
and
how
I'm
just
not
I'm,
not
being
negative,
we're
adding
four
more
that
we
got
to
hire
and
we
at
35
that
we,
you
know
still
short
I
mean
yeah.
B
Would
he'll
do
that?
Well,
the
district
doesn't
currently
allow
correct.
H
B
V
V
We
do
know
that
in
the
future,
we'll
have
Esser
positions
that
will
be
ending
and
we
have
people
in
positions
that
may
have
to
return
to
classroom.
So
that
could
be
a
bank
of
people
that
we
could
pull
from,
and
so
that's
just
one
Avenue
that
we
could
look
at
as
well.
G
And
the
oh:
it's
still
up
there,
the
community
groups
there.
G
T
Them
and
we,
you
know,
we
continue
to
have
Partnerships
with
agencies
that
to
to
work
with
our
students
to
do
school
base,
but
we
also
we
now
have
11
social
workers
and
three
Behavior
Specialists.
That
and
of
that
there
are
so
13
14
folks
of
that
10
of
them
are
lcsws
or
Masters
and
social
work,
so
we
actually
have
probably
a
more
qualified
group
than
some
even
some
of
the
community
agencies.
At
this
point,
so
you
know
how
we
continue
to
support
our
kids.
T
We
would
just
make
sure
that
we
wrap
service
around
there.
This
past
year,
Sarah
put
in
place
a
person
who
can
do
specific
work
with
or
EC
students.
T
G
Because
I
remember
a
few
years
back
with
that
class,
35
Mr,
Dixon
I
was
there
and
the
stories
and
and
where
the
you
know,
I
might
be
generalizing
here
but
seemed
like
everybody
was
going
before
your
college.
If
not,
they
were
going
into
the
military
and
I'm
just
you're.
Just
shaking
your
head
saying
wow
I
mean
it
was
amazing.
So.
T
And
some
of
that
I
think
when
we
move
the
22
credit
program
for
to
be
able
to
do
that
at
some
of
the
at
the
high
schools
we
have
kids
who
graduated
with
that
we've
had
kids
who've
been
successful.
In
that
way,
it
does
often
just
require
more
support
than
some
of
the
traditional
schools
can
can
put
out
there.
I
mean
there's
just
there's
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
need
there,
and
sometimes
it's
not
even
about
maybe
even
an
academic
need.
T
We
really
had
a
lot
of
students
who
who
went
to
work
and
who
have
are
now
struggling
to
try
to
figure
out
how
they
can
be
in
school
and
finish
their
classwork
to
to
graduate
because
they're
supporting
families.
It
also
I
think
gives
an
opportunity,
because
we
have
kids
who
own
the
kind
of
other
end
of
this.
They
they
are
they're
succeeding
in
school
they're
doing
really
well.
They
may
need
a
small
environment
too,
so
we
don't
want
to
make
this
just
a
space
that
would
just
be
for
the
student
who
is
not
successful.
T
We
want
to
have
a
space
for
students
to
be
able
to
have
their
needs
met
if
they
needed
to
have.
We
have
I
think
when
we've
had
this
conversation,
Dr
Jackson
was
he
had
a
couple
fantasy
and
talked
to
about
their
child
just
needed
something
different.
T
They
just
needed
a
smaller
environment
and
I
think
that
we're
seeing
that
more
and
more
particularly
after
covid
I
think
that
there's
just
kids
who
just
have
needs
that
are
different
than
what
we've
kind
of
faced
before.
So
we
just
want
to
have
something
in
place
that
we
can
meet
the
needs
of
students.
U
T
That
well,
we
had
a
really
good
process
when
Mr
Dixon
was
running
a
program
as
well.
I
think
that
we
would
we
want
to
look
at
what
was
in
place
there.
He
had
an
application
process,
he
had
an
interview
process,
recommendations
from
staff,
so
I
think
that
that
we
would
continue
There
and
just
and
really
just
look
to
see
what
the
students
need
and
I
do
think.
If
we're
going
to
start
with
a
small
group,
we
would
have
to
do
that.
T
U
He
may
have
answered
that,
but
you
know
it
seems
like
if
there
are
behavioral
needs
for
a
smaller
classroom
and
then
academic
type
needs
for
a
smaller
classroom
that
they
may
not.
The
students
may
not
be
at
the
same
learning
level,
and
how
do
you
address
the
variations
in
the
learning
level
within
such
a
small
country?
I.
T
So
you
know
I
think
there's
just
stuff
we're
going
to
have
to
work
through,
but
anytime
I
believe
when
you
come
together
to
work
with
an
individual
student
and
their
needs.
It's
always
that
case,
but
I
think
that
if
our
goal
would
be
to
be
really
committed
to
providing
what
students.
F
H
We're
presenting
it
to
you
for
information
tonight
with
hopes
that
you
don't
have
time
to
really
process
through
it.
Send
questions
we'll
be
happy
to
gather
any
additional
information
you
want,
and
so
at
next
month's
meeting,
we'd
like
to
begin
to
move
forward
with
with
that,
so
that
we
can
stay
on
on
the
timeline
or
adjust
it
based
on
your
needs.
One.
V
Clarification
that
I
can
make
too
on
the
financial
impact.
That
would
be
the
cost
for
an
entire
school
year
when
it's
fully
operational.
So
for
the
first
year
we
would
have
half
that
cost,
and
we
have
found
internal
funds
that
we
will
be
able
to
do
it
for
this
first
year
without
having
any
type
of
expansion
and
I
apologize
for
that
oversight
and.
U
H
No
I
think
we've
been
asked
repeatedly
how
we
were
going
to
restart
this
program.
We
know
that
there's
a
need
there,
and
so
we
really
thought
that
it
would
give
us
the
ability
to
scale
to
ramp
up
to
really
kind
of
slowly
put
the
program
back
online
for
the
next
school
year
or
we
can
wait
and
start
at
the
beginning
of
the
school
year
and
we
haven't
learned
anything.
So
we've
got
the
time.
H
If
we
can
do,
we
got
students
currently
in
the
model
that
we
can
really
kind
of
work
through
and
and
really
work
through
some
of
those
things.
So
there
was
no
magic
with
it.
We
just
felt
that
it
would
give
the
school
time
to
to
tease
out
some
of
those
details,
but
it
will
also
give
us
the
opportunity
to
work
through
those
those
Kinks
and
be
ready
for
the
full
implementation
during
next
school
year
and.
G
H
G
I,
don't
want
to
take
them
from
Bennett
or
or
Pollard
or
anything,
but
you
know
Wake
County
lead
yeah.
Let's
get.
B
Thank
you
very
much.
Let's
see
we'll
move
to
action
items,
2022,
2023,
School,
Improvement
plans
and
safety
components;
Dr
Moran,
oh
yeah,
you're,
good
Ms,
rape,
Closter.
W
We
need
her
voice
during
the
day,
all
as
well
so
I'm
here
to
share
some
information
about
this
year's
School
Improvement
plans,
but
to
start
I'd
like
to
acknowledge-
and
we
would
like
to
acknowledge
from
the
district
the
efforts
that
our
school
leaders
have
put
forth
into
these
School
Improvement
plans
and
the
entire
process.
So
if
I
may
ask
the
administrators
and
principals
to
stand
once
again,
so
we
can
recognize
them
for
their
hard
work
and
dedication
to
our
students.
W
So
we
thought
tonight
we
would
start
a
little
bit
with
just
the
process
of
school
Improvement
planning
that
our
schools
utilize,
since
we
haven't-
talked
about
this
in
a
couple
of
years.
So
we
wanted
to
talk
to
you
about
the
tool
that
we
utilize,
what
the
processes
that
the
schools
use,
how
stakeholders
can
access
the
school
Improvement
plans
and
what
the
district
does
to
support
the
schools.
W
So
Chatham
County
Schools
uses
something
called
industar,
which
is
a
web-based
platform
that
holds
all
the
plans,
but
it's
not
just
a
place
that
holds
documents.
It
actually
has
a
lot
of
other
resources
in
it
that
are
really
valuable
to
this
process.
So
it
is
based
on
research
and
it
provides
a
lot
of
tools
and
resources.
Within
this
web-based
platform,
it
allows
us
to
document
things.
It
allows
schools
to
chart
and
manage
their
their
progress
throughout
the
school
improvement
process.
W
It's
really
designed
to
enhance
school
teams
working
together
to
do
this
work
because
we
know
research
tells
us
that
team
effort
is
what's
really
going
to
make
change
happen
and
it
really
focuses
on
instruction
and
effective
practices.
So
the
way
that
it
focuses
on
effective
practices
is
through
something
called
indicate
an
indicator.
The
system
has
a
bank
of
130
research-based
objectives
that
have
shown
us
over
time
through
meta-analysis
work
to
improve
schools
within
those
130
indicators.
W
W
They
talk
about
a
vision,
they
set
goals
and
they
choose
the
indicators
that
they
feel
like
they
want
to
work
on
for
this
year
and
over
several
years.
The
next
step
is
the
planning
Step,
at
which
point
the
school
teams
assess
where
they
are
within
these
indicators,
and
they
create
a
vision
on
what
of
what
this
indicator
would
look
like
if
it
was
fully
implemented
once
they
kind
of
create
that
Vision.
W
They
then
create
action,
steps
that
they
will
work
through
throughout
the
year
or
even
over
two
or
three
years,
and
then
they
meet
monthly
and
or
twice
a
month
to
monitor,
to
see
if
they're
completing
these
action
steps
on
time
are
they
meeting
their
timelines
and
then,
of
course,
they
always
kind
of
revisit
goals
to
determine
if
they've
met
their
goals.
Do
they
need
to
add
more
action?
Steps
in
order
to
meet
those
goals?
W
W
W
Finally,
how
do
stakeholders
access
another
great
thing
about
using
a
web-based
tool
is
that
anyone
from
the
public
can
access
School,
Improvement
plans.
If
you
go
to
each
of
the
school's
websites
under
the
US
tab,
there
is
a
school
Improvement
plan
link
which
will
lead
you
to
a
link
to
IndyStar,
and
each
school
has
a
unique
guest,
login
and
guest
username
or
username
and
password,
and
then
you
would
be
able
to
enter
and
see
that
school's
plans.
So
it's
really
accessible
from
ever
for
everyone.
W
So,
finally,
it
also
has
some
embedded
support
structures
within
the
system,
so
we
are
able
to
communicate
with
school
leaders
through
coaching
comments.
It's
almost
like
an
intra
email
system,
sort
of
say
for
us
to
leave
comments
DPI
for
our
low
performing
schools
also
is
able
to
access
those
plans
and
also
provide
some
feedback
and
support
to
schools.
W
G
My
hats
off
to
the
principals,
because
in
looking
over
the
plans,
I
know
when
I
did
those
plans
I
keep
seeing
your
title
not
necessary.
In
some
cases
it
was
your
name
but
principle
was
responsible.
Principal
principal
I
tried
to
not
get
my
name
on
there,
but
y'all
have
a
lot
to
to
look
at
and
and
go
over
and
it's.
It
is
a
daunting
task
and
I
think
the
plans
today
dwindle
what
I
experienced.
So
it's
my
hat's
off.
G
W
So
may
we
request
a
motion
to
acknowledge
and
accept
the
school
Improvement
plans
for
that.
B
We
have
a
motion
to
approve
the
plans
as
presented.
Do
we
have
a
second?
Yes,
we
do
any
other
discussion
and
you're
in
reading
them.
You
can
see
the
different
strategies
that
are
being
used.
You
see
plc's
a
lot
and
Educators
like
acronyms,
quite
a
bit,
so
you
know
I,
know
you're
getting
together
and
working
through
that.
So
that's
wonderful
motion
is
second
all
in
favor
with
an
I.
I
any
opposed
like
some
thank
you.
B
Item
B
schools
and
Recovery
support
plans,
Dr
Moran.
V
V
We
think
that
our
schools
are
in
recovery
from
unique
challenges,
so
you
may
recall
back
in
2015,
the
state
did
through
the
general
assembly
assembly
redefine
low-performing
schools,
and
there
is
a
requirement
that
the
state
identify
these
schools,
and
then
districts
are
required
to
have
plans
of
support
for
them
that
the
definition
of
a
low
performing
School
designation
from
the
state
is
a
school
that
has
a
school
performance
grade
of
a
d
or
F
and
a
school
growth
score
of
met
growth
or
not
met
growth.
V
Now,
what's
confusing
about
that
is
a
school
can
have
a
D
grade
and
exceed
growth,
and
they
are
not
considered
low
performing
so
that
sometimes
can
be
a
little
bit.
Confusing
I
did
have
a
typo
in
the
abstract.
What
I
had
meant
to
put
in
there,
for
you
was
Data.
It
had
not
dropped
yet
about
the
percentages
for
our
state.
V
Bondley
is
new
to
this
process
and
then
Jordan
Matthews,
High
School
is
new
to
this
process.
I
will
stop
and
kind
of,
say
here,
though
I
just
want
to
say
to
the
public
and
to
the
board
that
this
this
grade
does
not
represent
all
the
great
things
happening
at
these
schools,
and
you
may
recall
from
our
presentation
last
month
you
know
Chatham
middle
Siler
City.
They
met
their
growth
expectations
and
Siler
City
was
on
our
chart
for
having
some
of
the
highest
performance.
V
V
Also
a
reminder
that
this
designation
is
calculated
through
a
formula
of
80
percent
proficiency
and
20
growth,
and
there
is
actually
information
in
the
Press
right
now
through
the
Department
of
Public
Instruction,
asking
for
feedback
on
that
accountability
model
which
has
gone
out
to
parents,
the
community
at
large
and
all
Educators,
and
so
we
encourage
anyone
to
give
feedback
on
that.
We.
V
Apparently
so,
and
we
we
do
know
that
we
have
schools
that,
when
we
put
them
up
against
other
schools
across
the
state,
they're
outperforming
schools
similar
our
schools
are
growing
at
rapid
rates
and
we're
really
proud
of
that.
But
this
model
does
not
show
that
and
so
we've.
We
feel
certain
that
if
that
model
was
changed
to
a
more
50
50
or
reversed
80
20
on
growth,
we
would
see
really
different
school
performance
grades
here
in
our
district
saw.
B
An
interesting
article
today
in
NC
it
popped
in
my
inbox,
but
where
they
map
different
all
the
schools
in
North
Carolina
and
they
mapped
them
about
four
or
five
different
ways.
As
far
as
you
know,
the
80
20,
the
50
50.
There
were
different
ways
that
is
real
interested
to
watch.
How
what
colors
the
dots
changed
on
there.
You
probably
Google
it
and
see
you
get
that,
but
it
is
really
interesting,
read
there.
V
Okay
yeah,
so
as
a
result
of
this
designation,
there
are
some
requirements
by
Statute
that
were
required
to
follow.
So
our
academic
team
has
been
working
with
these
schools
to
get
their
school
Improvement
plans
in
place,
which
is
one
of
the
requirements
to
put
it
in
indostar,
which
yay
us.
We
were
already
doing
that
many
districts
across
the
state
do
not
use
into
star
and
only
have
to
do
it
for
these
low-performing
schools,
but
we
use
it
for
all
of
our
schools.
So
that
part
we've
done.
V
We
are
required
to
give
a
public
access
to
give
feedback
on
our
plan.
So
there
is
a
link
here
and
we'll
work
with
on
this
Weigel
to
get
that
out
as
well.
If
people
want
to
give
feedback
on
these
plans,
they
can
and
then
we
also
have
to
do
a
parent
notification
letter,
letting
parents
know
what
we're
doing
to
improve
their
child's
school
if
it
is
in
this
status,
if
you
could
pull
up
the
attachment
as
well,
that
says:
support
plan
structure.
V
The
part
that
we're
also
required
to
share
with
you
is
what
the
district
will
do
to
support
these
schools
and
if
you
can
kind
of
expand
that
out
a
little
bit
the
first
page
or
so,
give
the
state
statute
requirements.
I've
already
talked
about
those
if
you'll
keep
scrolling
and
there's
a
timeline
here
in
early
October,
the
superintendent
works
with
the
Board
of
Education
to
make
any
Personnel
recommendations
necessary.
November
4th
is
when
we
have
to
do
the
Improvement
plans,
which
we
did
tonight
so
we're
ahead
of
schedule.
V
V
What
we've
done
in
the
past
with
you
and
we're
asking
again
tonight,
is
to
be
able
to
go
ahead
and
approve
those
plans
now
and
then,
if
we
have
any
significant
changes
or
feedback,
that's
required
as
a
result
of
the
survey
we'll
bring
it
back
to
you
and
that's
just
to
make
sure
that
we
don't
have
to
call
an
additional
board
meeting
for
that
purpose,
because
it
didn't
line
up
with
the
timeline
of
what's
required
by
the
state.
And
we've
done
that
in
the
past.
This.
V
V
V
We
have
a
set
of
things
that
we
do
so
we
have
designated
support
people
for
each
of
the
schools
and
they'll
just
keep
scrolling
through
that
list.
So
if
you're
curious
who's
working
with
what
schools
you
can
see
that
and
then,
if
you'll
keep
going
one
more
set,
we
have
a
variety
that
keep
going.
One
more
set,
keep
going
one
more
set
there.
We
go
some
of
the
things
that
we
do
to
support
these
schools
to
give
them
just
a
little
extra
TLC.
V
We
meet
with
them
four
times
a
year
to
review
data
and
to
look
at
internal
things
that
are
going
on
in
their
school.
We
also
do
additional
walkthroughs.
You
know
that
we
go
and
do
instructional
visits
in
each
of
our
schools.
Typically
one
to
two
a
year.
These
schools
will
have
four,
and
many
of
the
principals
have
already
requested
more,
which
is
great.
We
also
look
to
look
at
evos
data
and
when
we
have
teachers
that
are
not
meeting
growth
expectations,
we
require
and
provide
additional
training
and
support
for
those
specific
teachers.
V
We
also
do
a
variety
of
PD
with
the
school
based
off
of
trends
of
their
data.
So
if
we
see
that
they're
struggling
with
math,
we
might
have
our
math
coaches
go
in
and
provide
training.
V
We
also
look
at
teacher
evaluations
and
we
look
to
see
if
you
have
a
teacher
who
is
not
performing
with
their
students.
Does
their
evaluation
actually
match
that?
Are
they
getting
real
good
coaching
feedback
and
if
not,
we
would
work
with
the
principal
to
provide
them.
Some
coaching
support
around
quality
feedback
for
teachers.
The
state
does
require
super
evaluations
as
well,
which
means
that,
no
matter
what
a
teacher's
status
is,
they
have
to
have
a
full
evaluation
cycle.
V
We
also
look
at
data
and
then
other
supports,
and
some
of
those
over
the
years
might
look
like
book
studies
for
schools.
We
helped
start
a
breakfast
Brainiac
program
at
Pittsboro
years
ago
with
Mr
Poston
poverty,
training
with
local
agencies,
bringing
in
National
experts
over
the
years
to
help
with
specific
content
areas,
and
so
we
sit
down
and
roll
up
our
sleeves
with
the
schools
and
decide
what
it
is.
The
schools
feel
like
they
need.
What
is
their
data
telling
us,
and
then
we
work
to
provide
support
for
that.
V
The
state
does
not
give
us
any
additional
funds
to
support
these
School
status.
So
we
lean
on
at-risk
funds,
instructional
Supply
funds
contracted
services
and
professional
development
funds
internally,
both
local
and
state
funds.
So
we
don't
require
any
additional
funds,
but
we
have
to
get
creative
with
how
we
utilize
some
of
the
things
that
we
have.
So
that's
our
plan
of
support
and
I'm
getting
to
Mr
Hamm's
Point
we've
already
started
that
work.
V
We've
already
had
our
first
round
of
walkthroughs
happening
and
also
meeting
with
each
of
these
schools
to
get
their
plans
in
motion,
so
I
think
it's
the
earliest.
We've
ever
been
able
to
get
that
done.
So
we
feel
great
about
where
our
schools
are
headed.
Our
support
plan
process
also
has
had
a
pretty
good
track
record
over
the
years.
G
So,
when
you
say
the
aces
team
or
the
central
service
support
what
an
individual
from
the
central
service,
how
many
schools
do
they
get
anointed
to
to
work
with
directly
I
mean
so.
V
It's
a
two
three
I
mean
it
depends
so
like
Miss
Murray,
for
example,
has
two
support
plan
schools
that
she
works
with,
and
she
has
a
team
of
two
other
directors
and
one
two,
three
four
five
other
instructional
program
facilitators
that
go
and
help
her
with
that
work.
So
we
really
tried
to
balance
out
across
our
team
so
that
one
it's
consistent.
V
F
V
So
if
you
pull
up
right
there,
so
you
can
see
Miss
Murray
has
Virginia
cross
and
Siler
City.
We
also
add
a
layer
of
support
for
schools
that
are
not
designated
by
the
state,
so
Virginia
cross
is
not
low
performing
because
they
exceeded
growth,
but
they
still
are
a
school.
That
is
a
d
status,
so
we
are
giving
them
that
same
level
of
support,
China,
middle
and
bondley
Miss
Hester
has
those
and
Michelle
Burton.
V
Our
secondary
director
has
Jordan
Matthews
and
Chatham
Central
Chatham
Central
is
on
that
list
because
they
did
not
meet
growth
expectations
this
year,
even
though
they're
not
a
low
performing
school,
so
we
go
above
and
beyond
a
little
bit
what
the
state
requires
of
us
as
far
as
planning.
U
U
But
since
we
are
using
internal
funds
because
of
this,
do
we
have
enough
and
to
need
that
need-
and
you
know
I
kind
of
know,
the
answer
that
we
don't,
because
we
don't
have
enough
because
the
state's
not
funding
education
enough,
but
your
thoughts
on
on
that
and
how
we
get
there.
I.
B
I
moved
the
Chatham
County
Board
of
Education
approved
the
2022-2023
plans
of
improvement
for
the
designated
schools.
That's
presented
with
the
understanding
if
there
are
any
necessary
amendments,
as
Dr
Moran
mentioned,
based
on
feedback,
Board
of
Education
can
revisit
them
in
November
2022.
V
B
B
B
Former
principal,
oh,
that's,
okay,
yeah,
I,
know,
I,
know
all
right
item
C
proposed
fiscal
year
2024
through
2030
CIP
budget.
X
Yes,
sir,
thank
you.
Mr
chairman
members
of
the
board
superintendent.
We
met
last
week
with
the
county
and
talked
to
them
about
our
proposed
CIP
plan.
This
is
the
same
format
that
we've
used
for
a
couple
years
to
bring
this
information
to
you,
these
first
two
pages,
I
believe
and
as
we
scroll
down,
we'll
look
is:
what's
there
now
what's
been
approved
and
there
at
the
beginning,
and
just
go
back
up
to
the
top
of
that
page.
X
If
you
would
there's
four
future
projects
there
and
they
are
HVAC
upgrades
the
elementary
school
at
Chatham,
Park,
new
schools,
capacity,
expansion
and
the
gymnasiums
that
have
been
at
bondley
and
silcoat
down
below
that
you
have
the
current
approved
projects
and
we
gave
you
a
status
update
over
there
on
the
right.
The
locker
room
renovation
project
is
done.
X
The
new
Central
Services
building,
of
course
the
project
is
underway
as
we
speak.
It
is
on
schedule
or
is
on
schedule
as
it
can
be.
We're
anticipating
substantial
completion
in
January,
February
Paving
repair
is
an
ongoing
project.
It's
set
up
for
several
years,
it's
sort
of
sort
of
similar
to
what
we
did
years
ago
with
the
roofing
project,
where
we'd
have
a
roof
or
two
roofs
that
we
did
every
year.
That's
going
to
be
similar
to
that.
X
We
actually
were
able
to
do
a
couple
of
those
projects
in
the
10
million
dollar
spend
out
plan
that
we
got
about
a
year
or
two
ago,
and
we
listed
those
there
resurfacing
the
tracks
we've
been
working
on
this
one
for
a
few
years.
We
have
now
secured
a
new
vendor
and
have
great
hopes
that
we
will
have
that
done
before
we
meet
again
to
talk
about
CIP
a
year
from
now
and.
B
B
B
X
And
and
we'll
we're
we've
secured
a
new
vendor,
I've
met
with
them,
taking
them
out,
we've
looked
at
both
facilities
and
spaces
and
average
price
and
we'll
be
touching.
Based
on
that
in
just
a
minute,
Seaforth
High
School,
the
project
is
complete.
Wastewater
is
a
at
Silk.
Hope
is
a
project
that
we're
still
working
with
the
county
on
and
we're
still
determining
what
will
be
the
best
course
of
action
there.
So
that's
the
updates
on
the
scheduled
projects.
You'll
go
down
to
the
next
page.
This
is
what
we're
proposing
for
the
upcoming
year.
X
So
on
the
HVAC
project,
it's
still
a
future
project,
but
we
did
a
feasibility
study
to
add
HVAC
systems
to
our
existing
gymnasiums
that
don't
have
it,
which
is
a
major
undertaking,
but
there's
the
schools
that
are
listed
there
for
the
new
elementary
school
project
in
Chatham
park
that
has
now
changed
to
The
New,
Southern,
Village,
Elementary,
School
and
I'll.
Show
you
where
the
northern
Village
Elementary
School
is
in
just
a
minute,
not.
X
Oh
Southern
Hill,
yes,
sir,
absolutely
not
down
down
south
of
64..
Yes,
sir
new
schools,
capacity,
expansion
notice
that
we
added
the
words
demolish
and
rebuild
current
schools,
because
that's
new
language.
We
had
not
had
that
in
there
before
you'll
recall
when
we
got
an
update
from
ored
in
July.
We
talked
about
what
we
may
end
up
by
needing
to
do
with
one
of
our
schools,
so
that
language
is
very
deliberately
added
to
that
future
project.
For
that
reason,
the
scheduled
projects
that
we're
proposing
mobile
classrooms
will
be
pushed
out.
X
You'll
note
that
there's
two
projects
that
were
on
the
last
list
that
are
not
there
now
and
one
is
the
locker
rooms
and
the
other
is
Seaforth
high
school,
because
they're
complete
so
they're
not
on
this
list
anymore.
But
we've
extended
the
mobile
classrooms
a
year
to
keep
adding
note
the
paving
repair.
We
could
push
that
through
it's
it's
an
ongoing
project
and
we'll
be
doing
projects
next
year,
but
we've
added
fiscal
year
2030
at
the
end
of
it
and
a
dollar
amount
for
projects
that
we'll
be
doing.
X
Then
there's
the
information
on
resurfacing
the
tracks
and
it
tells
you
that
we've
secured
a
new
vendor
if
you'll
keep
going
down
yeah
there,
you
go.
There's
the
tracks
below
that
the
Wastewater
project
note
that
we
pushed
that
out
a
year
recommendation
from
the
county
classroom
Edition
at
Pollard,
Middle
School.
This
was
something
that
we
talked
about
in
July.
This
is
a
new
project.
It
may
be
brick
and
mortar.
It
may
be
adding
classroom
pods
to
be
determined
at
this
point,
the
advantage
by
the
way
of
the
classroom
pods.
X
If
we
do
brick
and
mortar,
we
can
add
four
classrooms
at
the
end
of
each
of
the
two
wings
which
will
give
us
a
total
of
eight
two
six
classroom.
X
That
now
is
scheduled
and
it
is
construction
of
new
gymnasiums
they've
been
at
Bond
Lee
and
silcob
schools,
which
will
be
a
combination
of
a
brick
and
mortar
and
metal
building.
We
did
a
feasibility
study
to
assess
the
campuses
we
applied
through
the
DPI
Capital
funding
grants
and
it
went
through
that
twice
and
we
were
overlooked
twice
and
in
our
meeting
with
the
county.
We
came
to
the
conclusion.
It
was
time
to
go
ahead
and
schedule
it
and
let's
do
it
so
there
it
is,
and
it's
now
a
scheduled
project.
G
Well,
I
I'm
glad
you've
added
the
language
of
the
demo,
because
no
you're,
two
years,
Whatever
Whenever
we
were
talking
about
the
new
Central
service
for
the
current
central
service.
G
County
manager
was
standing
right
in
front
of
me
and
I
said
what
do
y'all
plan
on
doing.
This
is
at
the
time
I
said,
I
named
four
or
five
places
around
town
that
have
just
sat
there
and
sat
there
and
they
become
eyesores
in
the
town
and
I
said
we
don't
need
this
to
become
an
isil
and
Gary
and
I've
just
been
talking
and
knocking
things
around.
G
We
actually
came
up
with
the
answer
that
a
joint
effort
between
Chatham
Park
County
Commissioners
local
businesses
to
create
that
space
into
a
teacher-age
village,
so
our
teachers
can
have
somewhere
to
live
and
afford
to
live
there
and
I
I,
couldn't
imagine
being
there
and
teaching
Pittsburgh
Elementary
and
leave
leave
my
house
at
7
25
to
walk
across
the
street.
I
mean
wow,
you
know,
and
so,
when
y'all
are
wheeling
and
dealing
with
the
Commissioners,
it's
very
you
know.
The
credit
union
has
been
instrumental
with
this
in
different
parts
of
the
state.
G
They
just
finished
doing
one
up
in
Buncombe,
County,
Asheville
and
Dale
and
I
looked
into
that
some
years
ago,
and
and
we
need
to
stir
the
pot
and
get
that
going
because,
because
that's
one
of
the
things
we
keep
hearing
from
our
surveys
and
all
that
our
teachers
don't
have
anywhere
logistically
to
live
without
having
you
know,
14
roommates
in
a
two-bedroom
apartment,
I'm,
just
joking,
but
you
know,
drive
also
yeah.
H
It'll
be
helpful
to
put
a
discussion
around
affordable
housing
on
our
Retreat
agenda
and,
in
the
meantime,
we
can
gather
that
information
for
at
least
what
those
projects
look
like
out
in
other
communities.
I
know
they've
done
some
locally.
The
closest
one
I
believe
is
in
Durham,
but
I
believe
we're
we're
even
doing
some
research
on
that
I'm,
not
sure
what
the
you
know,
the
things
that
would
be
barriers
or
non-barriors,
but
we
can
gather
the
information
for
discussion
at
your
retreat
in
January.
If
that
would
be
helpful.
U
And
may
I
ask
that
we
possibly
look
at
ones
that
also
have
included
embedded
child
care
in
those
teachers,
because
I
think
that
was
something
that
some
teachers
and
and
discussions
talked
about
it
being
a
need
to,
because
we
have
a
child
care
shortage.
I.
H
Will
I
will
caution
that
the
board
has
already
conveyed
that
Facility
by
mou
to
the
Commissioners
that
that
property
has
already
been
conveyed?
So
we
would
need
to
I
would
be
I
would
caution
that
we
not
get
into
projecting
what
will
be
on
that
property
until
we
at
least
have
had
that
conversation
with
the
county
and
with
sure
the
town
of
Pittsboro.
X
Are
not
okay,
the
in
July,
when
we
shared
the
update
with
you,
we
mentioned
that
we
may
need
to
look
at
doing
something
at
Moncure
school.
It.
X
I,
remember
that
may
be
the
largest
it
it's
the
the
the
projections,
the
current
projections
that
we
showed
you
in
July
have
that
number
accelerating
rather
quickly.
The
the
catch
is,
though,
that
that's
all
based
upon
what
then
fast
is
expecting
to
do
these.
Other
projects
are
more
what
Chatham
Park
is
going
to
be
doing
in
anticipation
of
what
then
fast
will
be
doing.
X
The
the
county
asked
us
to
just
leave
that
one
off
for
now,
but
we
added
the
wording
in
there
as
an
option
just
so
if
we
need
to
if
we
need
to
approach
a
project
that
way
we
have
the
wording
already
in
place,
so
we're
not
starting
from
scratch,
but
no
ma'am
it
would
that
Moncure
is
what
we
were
talking
about.
Okay,.
F
X
Well,
the
Moncure
campus
is
actually
pretty
small
yeah
and
that
building
is
actually
or
the
the
buildings
that
are
on
the
campus
and
because
it's
not
served
with
a
municipal
sewer
system.
It
has
an
on-site
system
there.
There
are
some
restrictions
as
to
what
we
can
and
can't
do.
U
Point
does
it
a
big
Mega
site
like
this
is
new
to
our
County
and,
of
course
we
have
going
to
have
two
others
well
one
not
in
our
County
but
on
the
border,
but
with
genfast
and
realizing
how
much
it
sounds
like
Monica
is
going
to
grow.
U
Do
you
do
we
have
any
kind
of
understanding
from
the
County
Commissioners
how
those
types
of
negotiations
work?
For
you
know
we
talk
about
developments,
but
we
haven't
had
a
major
industry
of
this
sort
come
to
our
County
and
how
those
types
of
changes,
if
the
industries
are
able
to
contribute
to
schools
and
things
like
that
and
just
curious,
so
how
that
might
work
from
conversations
with
the
county?
If
that
has
happened,
right.
X
So
the
the
county
and
and
we're
we're
speaking,
of
course,
with
the
county
manager
and
the
county
manager's
office.
Of
course
they
will
speak
to
the
the
Commissioners,
but
you
know
in
our
conversations
and
I
was
in
a
Parks
and
Rec
meeting
a
couple
weekends
ago
and
Brian
Thompson
from
the
manager's
office.
Was
there
with
us,
and
somebody
said:
well,
you
know
how
come
those
developments
are
not
doing
this
and
how
come
they're
not
doing
that.
How
come
they're
not
doing
that
we're
not
to
that
point
yet
right.
X
That
is
something
in
the
future
that
will
be
coming
and
typically,
when
large
corporations
like
this
come,
they
do
want
to
contribute.
They
do
want
to
be
a
part
of
those
things,
but
meantime
we've
got
to
start
moving
now,
so
we
can't
just
wait
for
that.
So
I'm
sure
that
those
things
will
be
part
of
those
conversations
along
the
way,
probably
not
now.
H
H
That
again,
as
we
prepare
for
a
joint
meeting
with
the
Commissioners
I
think
this
would
be
a
healthy
conversation
because
again
I
don't
want
to
get
in
front
of
them.
On
any
of
this,
we
are
conducting
a
land
use
study
to
understand
what
what's
out
there.
Now
we
are
taking
into
account
all
of
the
growth
that
we
are
aware
of,
because
my
guess
is.
H
There
are
some
things
that
we
don't
know
yet
and
once
all
of
that
comes
into
play,
then
we
can
it's
going
to
be
a
moving
I,
don't
want
to
say
a
Target,
because
I
think
it's
just
going
to
be
a
a
growing
understanding
of
all
of
the
conditions.
A
H
So
as
menifest
begins
to
ramp
up
and
that
Development
begin
because
I
believe
there's
some
conversation
about
the
land
use
in
the
town
of
Pittsburgh,
there's
there's
some
small
use
or
small
area
plan
studies
being
done
right
now
that
all
of
that's
going
to
have
to
come
together
and
we
will
begin
to
build
out
the
long-range
plan.
What
we
know
right
now
is
the
projected
growth
that
will
be
tied
to
Chatham
park.
H
Now
we
in
there
we
we
left
a
caveat
to
say
that
we
will
learn
more
yes,
so
I
don't
want
you
to
take
that
this
is
a
finished
product.
At
this
point,
we
will
learn
more
as
we
go
through
and
so
I
think
as
we
and
the
goal
was
always
to
really
have
the
healthy
conversation
around
growth
at
your
retreat
in
January,
because
we're
still
gathering
information
sure
Orient
has
not
provided
us
with
our
land
use
study.
A
H
U
Immature
and
perhaps
problematic
to
start
that
conversation
without
having
that
information
and
if
you
know
when
we
look
at
January
thinking
about
Siler
City,
you
know
because
we
have
the
chip
manufacturing.
That
will
be
in
the
county
lines.
But
then
you
know
we
also
have
the
Honda
battery
plan
that
we
are
Toyota
I
mean,
but
we'll
have
the
the
battery
plant
there.
That
will
is
right
on
the
county
line,
so
we,
but
we
won't-
have
the
benefit
of
the
of
the
taxes
from
that.
U
F
H
Absolutely
yeah:
that's
why
we
left
that
Cafe
out
in
there
it's
going
to
change
because
yeah,
if
you
remember
the
initial
piece,
was
then
fast
FedEx
and
those
other
pieces
right
now
and
that
the.
H
So
long
as
you're
sure
January,
we
hope
to
be
able
to
have
a
more
definitive
piece
for
our
study
is
well
underway,
the
town
of
Pittsboro,
we
believe
their
studies
underway
and
the
County's
small
area
plan
and
then
we'll
come
together
and
The
Silo
City
stuff
with
wolf
speed
is
also
underway.
It's
going
to
have
to
be
a
coordinated
effort.
B
G
I
just
wanted
to
sum
up
a
little
more
long-terms.
We
used
to
book
our
flight
and
know
what
we're
doing
we
know
what
we're
doing,
but
we're
also
building
the
plane
as
we
fly.
This
is
a
home
new.
It's
a
mill
first.
N
G
U
With
regards
to
Pollard
and
the
classrooms,
can
you
elaborate
as
to
when
and
how
those
discussions
about
the
two
options
might
take
place?
I.
X
Think
the
Commissioners
will
have
to
be
making
that
decision.
When
you
submit
new
projects
to
the
CIP
you
submit
and
you
submit
other
options.
So
we
have
it
in
what
we've
submitted
both
ways:
brick
and
mortar,
here's
the
price
what
it
would
cost
us
is
what
it
gets
us
and
then,
as
an
alternative
modular,
a
modular
pod
type
of
approach
to
six
classroom
pods
instead
of
the
two
brick
and
mortar
editions.
This
is
what
it'll
cost,
and
this
is
what
it
gets
us.
So
at
this
point,
that's
in
the
in
the
commissioner's
hands.
Okay,.
F
B
All
in
favor
of
the
motion
with
an
eye
all
right
all
right,
any
opposed
like
sometime.
Thank
you,
Mr
Price.
Thank
you.
Do
I
have
a
motion
to
return
to
closed
session
for
the
items
list.
Seven.
