Description
No description was provided for this meeting.
If this is YOUR meeting, an easy way to fix this is to add a description to your video, wherever mtngs.io found it (probably YouTube).
A
Right
on
the
items
under
number,
two,
the
consent
agenda,
2.1
roll
call-
please
note
all
but
Stuart
Stein-
are
in
attendance
this
evening.
2.2.
Are
there
any
conflicts
of
interest
this
evening
to
be
disclosed
from
board
members
2.3?
We
need
a
review
and
approval
of
the
agenda,
so
we
could
have
a
motion.
Please.
D
Thank
you
in
the
general
capital
outlay
and
special
education
funds.
A
small
amount
of
tax
proceeds
along
with
federal
funds
was
reported.
The
federal
funds
are
expenditures
from
last
fiscal
year
and
are
noted
as
receivables
and
reported
under
last
fiscal
year.
Activity
official
enrollment
counts
were
confirmed
at
month
end
and
therefore,
state
aid
for
both
the
general
and
special
education
funds
will
be
adjusted
next
month
in
consideration
of
actual
versus
estimated
counts
in
the
general
fund.
D
The
the
this
funds
ending
cash
position
of
6.5
million
reflects
a
decrease
when
compared
to
the
prior
year
and
is
an
intended
decrease
to
spend
down.
Cares
allocations
received
in
previous
years.
The
ending
cash
balance
in
the
special
education
fund
of
814
000
is
slightly
higher
than
last
fiscal
year.
Lake
Area
Tech
received
tuition
and
fees
in
relation
to
the
first
semester.
The
first
quarter
state
aid
payment
in
the
amount
of
one
million,
one
million
eight
hundred
and
seventeen
thousand
was
received,
resulting
in
Revenue
exceeding
expenditures
for
the
month.
D
This
funds,
ending
cash
position,
reflects
an
intended
decrease
over
the
previous
two
years
as
construction
and
progress
takes
place
on
the
diesel
expansion
in
Archway,
this
fund
will
remain,
will
maintain
a
steady
decline.
Activity
for
the
Lake
Area
Tech
was
also
hey,
was
also
had
in
the
funds
of
financial
aid,
accommodating
grants
and
financial
assistance
to
students,
as
well
as
latc
bookstore
food
service
and
EduCare
in
k-12's
Enterprise
fund
of
K-12
nutrition.
Due
to
the
replenishing
of
food
inventory,
the
expenditures
exceeded
the
revenue
for
the
month
as
typical.
D
This
funds,
ending
cash
position,
reflects
an
increase
when
compared
to
that
of
the
prior
year
in
the
employee
benefit
trust.
The
claims
in
administrative
costs
exceeded
the
premium
during
the
month.
This
fund's
ending
cash
position
is
well
below
previous
years.
The
2023
renewal
meeting
noted
that
total
claims
have
increased
by
21
from
prior
year.
Claims
to
premium
ratios
will
be
reviewed
throughout
the
year
to
plan
accordingly
for
the
future
of
the
plan,
I
would
be
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
If
you
have
any.
A
All
right,
then
item
3.2
is
we're
noting
a
work
session
for
the
joint
meeting
with
the
school
board
in
the
Lake
Area
Tech
advisory
Council
on
October
13th
from
noon
to
two
anything
you
wanted
to
add
to
that.
That.
A
E
So
this
month,
actually
Lake
Area
Tech
does
not
have
any
resignations.
Okay,.
E
A
A
E
They
curious
Technical
College,
recommends
approval
of
the
financial
assistance
award
from
the
national
standards,
National
Institute
of
Standards
and
Technology,
also
known
as
nist.
This
grant
is
worth
three
three
million
561
000
over
five
years,
with
the
option
to
renew
for
an
additional
five
years.
The
Cooperative
agreement
allows
Lake
Area
Tech
to
manage
the
South
Dakota
manufacturing,
Technology
Solutions.
A
F
The
board
of
superintendents
did
not
meet
in
October,
but
we
will
meet
again
on
November
1st
and
then
we'll
update
the
full
board
after
that
at
the
November
meeting.
But
just
a
reminder
to
those
board
members
who
are
on
the
full
Board
of
Northeast
Tech
will
meet
next
Wednesday.
The
19th
at
5
45.
So
get
ready
for
that.
G
Oh
there
we
go
thank
you
for
allowing
us
to
share
tonight
on
the
Aero
Success
Academy.
They
are
a
Success
Academy.
It
was
a
year-long
process
last
year,
where
we
I
did
a
K-12
approach
to
looking
at
alternative
education
within
our
school
district.
You
want
to
go
to
the
next,
and
on
that
committee
we
had
teachers,
administrators
School,
psychologists
and
Mr
Iverson
as
our
school
board
member
looking
at
various
alternative
schools
and
different
areas
within
alternative
schools
that
we
could
look
at
as
we're
developing
what
that
would
look
like
for
us.
G
In
the
end,
we
decided
to
focus
on
high
school
alternative
education,
and
our
referral
criteria
was
non-special
education,
students
largely
because
we
already
have
some
specific
programs
in
place
for
that
population
of
students.
We
looked
at
academic
concerns,
behavioral
concerns
and
social
emotional
concerns,
as
well
as
how
an
alternative
schedule
could
help
support
students
that
are
at
risk.
G
As
far
as
the
placement
process
that
we
ended
up
looking
at,
we
did
look
at
the
overall
concerns
of
a
group
of
students,
students
that
were
not
successful
within
our
high
school.
We
looked
at
the
interventions
that
were
in
place
and
the
successes
of
those
interventions
and
documented
those
from
there.
We
had
an
onboarding
process,
a
referral
process
in
which
we
identified
the
students
and
then
an
application,
formal
application
process
that
really
identified
the
areas
of
concern
in
the
school,
the
social
emotional
aspect,
as
well
as
in
the
home.
G
When
we
had
our
onboarding
with
our
students,
we
a
part
of
that
we
have
an
interview
and
a
parent
meeting
where
they
come
in,
and
we
interview
the
student
to
get
their
feedback
as
well
as
the
parent
and
we
document
that
we
have
a
consent
contract
that
both
of
them
sign
when
they're
entering
the
program-
and
this
just
shows
kind
of
goes
through
what
we
would
expect
within
our
program
and
what
our
targets
are
for
that
program.
G
As
part
of
that
conversation,
we're
focusing
on
that
path
to
graduation,
because
a
lot
of
these
students,
maybe
wouldn't
be
successful
in
our
school
in
the
traditional
sense
or
they
haven't
shown
that
they
have.
So
we
want
the
want
the
eye
on
the
prize
on
that
and
our
prizes
that
graduation.
So
we
want
them
to
be
thinking
about
I'm
in
this
program,
with
the
intent
that
I'm
going
to
graduate
from
Watertown
High
School.
G
And
then
we
looked
at
the
admittance
with
that
and
through
that
process
and
all
those
meetings,
then
we,
those
students,
do
come
in
with
our
program
go
to
the
next
one
as
far
as
currently
what
we
have
our
core
classes,
we're
focusing
on
the
science,
the
English,
the
social
studies
and
the
math.
You
can
see
that
we
have
seven
students
doing
science
right
now,
11
in
English,
eight
in
social
studies
and
eight
in
math.
G
Two
students
are
taking
Watertown
High
School
classes
in
conjunction
of
with
being
at
the
arrow
Success
Academy
that
being
earth
science
and
weight
training,
and
then
we
find
a
large
benefit
for
our
students
that
can
continue
to
use
those
Hands-On
courses
at
Northeast,
Tech,
High
School.
Currently,
three
of
them
are
taking
advantage
of
that,
in
addition
to
being
over
at
the
alternative
school,
which
is
at
the
old
PD
Center.
G
As
far
as
our
objectives,
when
we
develop
the
program,
we
wanted
to
be
able
to
teach
students,
life
skills
and
promote
citizenship.
Improve
our
academic
performance
to
achieve
Watertown
high
school
diploma
decrease
the
dropout
rate.
Hopefully,
through
this
program
we
can
help
them
find
Hope
for
where
they're
at
and
their
their
education
and
the
successes
that
they
can
have
and
improve
their
attendance.
G
We
also
do
some
things
and
have
some
things
in
place
to
help
with
the
drug
and
alcohol
prevention
side
of
that
and
I'll
talk
about
that
a
little
bit
when
I
talk
about
the
Staffing
for
what
we
have
right
now.
Currently,
Steph
hegeman
has
been
our
director
in
coordinating
all
of
the
activities
through
our
ASA
She's
Been,
instrumental
in
setting
up
meetings
with
parents,
kind
of
helping
us
to
find
our
handbook
and
our
referral
process
and
our
intake
process.
G
We
have
Lisa
Braun,
who
is
a
paraprofessional.
We
moved
her
over
from
the
high
school
over
into
that
position
to
kind
of
assist
as
we're
working
with
students.
Stephanie
Cole
is
our
math
instructor.
Thai
email
is
our
English
Marina
Johnson
is
our
science
and
Brodie
Reese?
Is
our
social
studies
when
you
look
at
those
four
core
class
teachers
keep
in
mind
right
now?
They
are
going
over
there,
just
one
block
of
the
day
for
those
core
classes
and
they're
teaching
the
rest
of
their
caseload
over
at
the
high
school
Michelle
akterberg.
G
H
So
when
we
were
developing
this
program,
we
did
a
lot
of
research
and
talked
a
lot
in
our
committee,
and
we
even
did
some
visits
and
wanted
to
take
some
spin-offs
from
some
other
programs.
The
supports
that
the
district
provided
us
this
year
is,
we
knew
district-wide.
H
We
followed
the
Boys
Town
model
and
we
wanted
to
implement
that
there
as
well,
so
the
district
brought
in
a
trainer
for
five
days
this
summer
and
our
ASA
staff
were
invited
to
participate
in
that
this
Boys
Town
training
is
going
to
focus
on
your
social
skills
and
your
life
skills.
The
students
earn
positive
report
points
both
for
behavior
and
academic
achievement
and
negative
points,
primarily
based
on
achieve
or
based
on
Behavior
there.
H
If
they
get
a
third
negative
point
in
one
area
that
refers
to
an
office
referral,
and
then
they
do
a
daily
reconciliation
kind
of
keep
a
checkbook
register
of
their
points
and
they
can
purchase
with
those
points,
some
extrinsic
motivators
that
they
came
up
with.
So
they
have
some
ownership
in
the
program
as
well.
H
For
academic
interventions,
we
knew
we
needed
an
academic
Focus,
because
many
of
our
students
are
behind
credit
wise.
So
we
do
daily
goal
setting
with
them.
Daily
Progress
monitoring
I
do
as
well
as
the
teachers
I
set
weekly
Target
goals
for
each
student
and
then
at
the
end
of
each
week.
We
see
if
they
have
met
those
Target
goals.
H
If
they
have
met
those
goals,
they
stay
at
or
move
up
a
level
if
they
have
not
met
those,
they
move
down
a
level
based
on
where
they're
at
and
what
they're
doing
taking
a
spin-off
of
what
Harrisburg,
High
School
does
and
their
alternative
education
program.
H
We
went
with
some
of
their
leveling
ideas,
which
would
be
an
adjusted
daily
schedule
having
a
dedicated
work
location
so,
if
they're
failing
say
per
se
science
class,
they
have
to
be
with
that
science
teacher
during
that
block
that
she
is
in
the
building
and
then
they
can
earn
other
privileges,
whether
it's
listening
to
music
or
doing
some
sensory
time
or
those
kinds
of
things,
the
student
of
demographics.
Right
now
we
have
11
students
in
our
program.
H
Three
of
those
students
are
in
their
sophomore
year
and
have
an
average
of
3.5
credits,
so
you
can
see
that
they're
significantly
behind
two
of
the
students
are
in
their
junior
year
and
have
an
average
of
9.5
credits.
Four
of
the
students
are
seniors
this
year
and
they
have
an
average
14
and
a
half
credits,
and
we
have
two
students
that
are
in
their
fifth
year
still
working
to
meet
all
of
the
requirements
and
they
have
an
average
of
17.75
credits.
The
average
GPA
for
our
students
over
at
aerosuccess
Academy
right
now
is
1.376.
H
18
of
our
students
are
other
than
white
identified
by
them
through
campus,
64
percent
are
female
and
36
percent
are
male.
The
thing
that
really
hit
me
when
I
was
pulling
this
data
is
73
of
our
students,
have
a
diagnosed
mental
or
behavioral
health
problem,
and
so
I
think
we've
seen
that
escalate
over
the
last
couple
years,
and
so
hopefully
this
is
a
safe
environment
that
they
can
be
successful
in
and
then,
when
I
was
pulling,
their
average
assessment
scores.
H
Math
you'll
see
the
first
number
is
their
average
Smarter
Balance
score,
and
the
second
number
is
their
percentile
on
the
nwaea
map
test
that
we
currently
give
so
we're
right
around
that
40
percentile
on
the
map
data
that
we
have.
So
these
are
average
students.
We
just
need
to
find
a
way
to
meet
their
needs
and
get
them
successful
in
academics.
H
Our
big
successes-
and
this
was
really
exciting-
credits
earned
this
year
out
of
those
11
students.
Already
16
credits
have
been
earned.
Now.
This
is
a
caveat.
This
might
seem
a
little
bit
inflated
because
some
of
these
classes-
they
started
last
year
and
didn't
complete
so
they've
completed
this
year
or
maybe
they've
started,
and
you
know
this
is
just
midterm.
This
data
was
all
of
October
3rd
and
of
those
16
credits.
Three
and
a
half
of
those
have
been
earned
in
the
one
to
one
to
one
mentoring
program.
H
This
program
is
where
we
have
a
business
Mentor
work
with
an
educator,
Mentor
work
with
the
student,
and
we
support
each
other
through
business,
school
and
student
work
and
talk
to
the
student
across
the
board
and
other
things.
They
not
only
do
they
log
their
hours
and
I
think
it's
150
hours
equals
one
credit,
but
they
also
have
to
do
some
journaling
and
do
some
work
with
Department
of
Labor
as
well,
and
Lisa
Johnson's
Been
instrumental
in
that
one
of
our
goals
was
decreasing.
H
Absences
absences
and
45
of
our
students
have
improved
in
this
area,
which
is
five
of
the
11..
However,
four
of
them
have
had
some
extenuating
circumstances,
and
so
we
look
for
those
numbers
to
improve
throughout
the
school
year
behaviors.
This
was
another
one
of
our
Target
goals
and
our
office
referrals
have
reduced
by
65
percent.
With
this
group
of
11
students
as
of
October
3rd
of
last
year,
we
were
at
26
office
referrals
this
year,
we're
at
nine
and
for
ISS
OSS
we've
reduced
this
number
by
82
percent.
H
Last
year
we
were
at
11,
and
this
year
we're
at
two
Community
involvement
is
something
that
I'm
really
passionate
about
getting
involved
in
our
program.
This
year
we
have
project
success
coming
in
I've
worked
with
Mr
Berrios
and
Dr
Danielson,
as
well
as
some
other
staff
at
the
high
school
and
through
HSA
to
get
some
speakers
in
during
times
and
expose
our
kids
to
some
different
stories
and
some
different
successes
in
the
community.
So.
H
Anticipated
growth
last
year,
when
we
talked
we're
like
okay,
this
building
can
house
20,
kids
and
I
said:
oh
guys,
guys
guys.
Let's
start
this
small
and
let's
do
it
right
and
let's
get
the
Kinks
worked
out
and
then
we
can
grow
because
when
we
met
with
Ryan
rollinger
from
Harrisburg
High
School,
he
said
we're
in
year
10
of
our
program
and
we're
still
making
changes.
H
H
I
think
we
can
up
by
a
couple
students
starting
quarter
two
and
we
will
have
our
first
graduate,
so
we'll
have
two
or
three
open
slots,
then
coming
up
at
the
end
of
October
and
then
quarter
three,
our
Target
is
14
to
16
students
and
quarter.
Four,
our
Target
is
16
to
20
students.
So
hopefully
we
get
to
20
by
the
end
of
the
year,
but
we're
going
to
start
and
do
it
right,
I
reached
out
to
the
parents
and
said
hey
we're
presenting
to
the
school
board.
H
And
what
do
you
have
to
say
about
this
program?
And
these
are
some
things
that
came
from
them.
This
program
has
been
a
huge
benefit
to
my
son.
He
likes
the
small
classes,
freedom
and
opportunities
to
work
at
his
own
pace,
so
he
doesn't
shut
down.
H
We
have
come
a
long
way
in
two
years
and
being
able
to
work
ahead
will
hopefully
lead
to
an
early
graduation.
This
is
of
a
student
who,
two
years
ago,
I
don't
know
if
graduation
was
even
going
to
be
in
the
plans
for
the
student
and
we're
on
track
now
and
we're
working
ahead
and
possibly
an
early
graduation.
Next
year
after
the
last
two
years,
I
was
willing
to
try
anything.
H
I've
only
received
one
phone
call
from
the
school
this
year
and
it
was
the
most
positive
call
I've
received
in
two
years
and
then
the
last
parent
said.
The
anxiety
of
walking
into
the
high
school
was
the
reason
for
poor
attendance
and
failing
classes.
This
is
no
longer
a
problem
and
a
graduation
is
coming
because
this
is
a
student's
program
and
they're
developing
it
and
we're
working
out
Kinks
along
the
way.
I
asked
them
for
some
feedback,
and
this
is
some
information.
I
got
from
them.
H
One-On-One
with
teachers
helps
to
get
to
know
each
other
better,
so
we're
working
on
that
building
relationships.
I've
always
said
that
75
to
80
percent
of
my
job
is
strictly
building
relationships.
I
actually
come
into
school
this
year.
This
is
like
my
second
home.
Less
students
and
less
distractions
is
less
problems.
Another
student
said,
and
the
daily
goals
really
helped
me
stay
focused
on
what
I
need
to
get
done.
I
think
if
you
would
have
done
this
in
the
past,
I
wouldn't
have
fallen
behind
so
we're
open
to
any
questions.
B
Thank
you,
and
just
a
huge
thank
you
to
your
entire
committee
to
both
of
you.
This
is
a
long
time
coming,
it's
a
long
time
that
we've
needed
this
to
have
these
students
looked
after.
It
really
impacts
three
groups,
these
students
who
needed
a
special
place
and
a
different
environment,
regular
students
in
the
high
school
who
were
distracted
by
disruptions
and
finally
for
the
staff.
B
H
B
F
I
want
to
say
thanks
to
Dr
Heath,
you
know
she
came
on
board
last
year
and
we
tasked
her
right
away
with
running
this
year-long
process
for
to
examine
our
alternative
education
and
one
of
the
reasons
we
focused
on
the
high
school
first
is,
you
may
be
noted
in
the
presentation,
but
it
was
gen
Ed
only
so
we
do
not
have
special
education
students
over
there
and
so
focused
on
the
general
education
and
the
graduation
pathway.
F
First,
that
doesn't
necessarily
mean
K-8
will
not
have
some
revisions
or
a
continued
look
at
it,
but
one
of
the
the
the
things
that
is
truly
tied
in
together.
More
so
at
the
K-8
level,
is
the
special
education
piece
and
right
now,
finding
special
education
teachers
and
to
look
in
particular
at
some
of
the
specialty
areas
has
been
an
issue,
and
so,
if
we
can
kind
of
keep
that
pipeline
full
from
a
staffing
issue,
it's
going
to
be
easier
to
take
a
look
and
kind
of
intertwine.
F
The
K-8
piece
of
it,
but
just
the
the
one-year
look
and
then
the
revisions
at
the
high
school
does
not
necessarily
mean
like
the
K-8
piece
of
it
is
not
still
under
review
for
the
best
possible
use
of
our
staff
and
the
available
funds.
We
have
because
that
was
pointed
out
last
year
as
well,
is
that
we
have
some
needs
in
that
that
area
too,
and
so
we're
going
to
stay
on
that
and
then
I
really
appreciate
the
staff.
F
One
of
the
things
that
I
appreciated
the
most
with
the
committee
look
and
then
what
I've
seen
as
it's
been
rolled
out
is
one
we're
off
to
such
a
great
start
for
the
students
and
I
I
love,
seeing
the
amount
of
credits
that
have
already
been
earned
in
the
comments.
F
But
the
biggest
piece
that
has
been
so
rewarding
to
me
is
it's
a
continued
approach
that
focuses
on
what
do
these
students
need
in
order
to
be
successful,
as
opposed
to
kind
of
a
catch-all
one
one
look,
and
so
I
just
appreciate
the
staff
Mr
mcclellan's
Miss
Hagerman.
F
The
way
you've
approached
us
and
put
this
together
and
made
it
Fly
here.
C
I
would
say
Echo
these.
These
comments
that
have
been
made
and
I
really
like
the
idea
of
the
one-on-one
mentorship
I
think
that's
a
great
idea
for
people
to
get
out
and
spend
time
in
the
workforce
to
find
out
what
skills
you
need
in
in
just
how
important
it
is
to
be
punctual
to
be
there
every
day
and
and
the
things
that
that
you're
trying
to
reinforce
that
are
important
out
in
the
workforce
and
I.
Think
it's
really
important.
C
F
I
would
put
that
plug
in
when
you
talk
about
the
one-to-one
mentoring,
our
we
have
a
biscal
board
that
meets
monthly
and
they
have
been
big
advocates
for
this
program.
It's
been
this
business
industry,
School
Coalition
and
our
business
Community
has
been
very
active
and
is
looking
for
more
opportunities.
If
we
have
students
who
fit
that
bill
and
they
have,
they
have
always
offered
their
support,
whether
it's
you
know
work
boots
or
certain.
F
You
know
uniforms
that
kind
of
thing,
and
so
that
that
is
that
that
gift
is
always
out
there
from
our
bisco
board.
We've
appreciated
over
the
years
all
the
people
who've
been
on
that.
A
A
Moving
on
to
the
action
items,
6.1
approval
of
the
bills,
could
we
have
a
motion.
C
I
Before
you
are
several
contract
recommendations
for
social
studies
standards
review
over
the
past
few
weeks,
we
looked
for
staff
to
help
provide
feedback
on
the
new
proposed
social
studies
standards,
so
that
was
helpful
and
then
as
well.
Some
additional
IEP
responsibilities
that
were
handed
out
as
we
are
short
staffed
with
sped
teachers.
So
that
makes
up
a
majority
of
those
for
your
approval.
A
F
Yes,
we've
had
two
different
meetings
with
our
social
study
staff.
The
first
was
K-12
and
the
second
was
specifically
the
7
12
and
have
discussed
the
standards.
B
I've
read
through
the
standards
and
I
guess:
I
would
add
that
K4
our
grading
system
doesn't
currently
really
reward.
Advanced
Superior
excellent.
There
isn't
a
level
four
on
the
grid
sheet.
So
if
we
are
going
to
raise
standards
in
a
subject
area,
I
would
look
that
we
should
have
some
kind
of
incentive
to
students
to
excel.
B
F
Just
no
I
talked
more
about
the
fact
that
I
did
testify
in
opposition,
and
my
my
testimony
in
opposition
was
more
on
time
and
money
time
in
order.
If
we
are
going
to
make
the
change
coupled
with
the
time,
it
would
need
to
teach
that
volume
of
standards
and
then
the
money
it
would
take,
then
to
compensate
people
for
the
extra
time.
B
I
can
understand
the
time
I
think
there
was
some
trepidation
about
finding
resources
to
support
all
these
standards
and
I
can
see
they're
out
there.
The
resources
are
there.
I
spent
40
years,
providing
resources
to
teachers
and
I
know
I
can
find
them
so
I
think
others
can
too
another
issue
I.
Would
we
really
need
to
look
at
coordinating
subject
areas
perhaps
English
and
history
I
know
when
I
taught
English
I,
always
coordinated
with
the
history
teacher,
if
I
was
doing
Greek
tragedy
or
Greek
myths,
he
was
teaching
Greek
history.
B
B
So
that's
important
and
I
would
also
emphasize
that
this
is
another
reason
we
need
a
K4
and
even
k6
Anthology
a
basal
reader,
because
it
provides
those
resources
in
a
written
format,
Miss
Legends,
including
Native,
American
myths
and
so
on,
but
a
wide
range
of
different
types
of
literature
that
coordinate
with
history,
so
I
think
basal.
Readers
are
highly
important,
so
yeah.
It's
something
that
we're
going
to
have
to
look
at
work
with
and
see
where
we
go.
A
Okay,
thanks
for
your
comments,
Gene,
we
have
the
motion
and
the
second
to
approve
these
contract
recommendations
and
addendums.
A
Okay,
could
we
have
a
motion?
Please
I
will
make
a
motion
to
approve
the
volunteer
list
motion
by
lower
and
second
by
Iverson,
any
comments
or
questions
on
those
I'd
just
like
to
thank
all
the
volunteers
that
step
up
and
help
out
in
our
schools
form
a
very
valuable
job
there,
all
right.
So
all
in
favor
of
approval,
the
volunteer
list
say:
aye
aye
opposed
motion
carries
move
to
6.3
in
the
property
items
and,
first
of
all,
6.3.1
the
consider
a
reduced
meal
price.
D
Thank
you,
I'm.
Under
the
USDA
Federal
nutrition
program,
there
are
three
categories
of
pricing
based
on
household
income:
free,
reduced
and
paid.
The
federal
program
allows
for
local
control
on
the
reduced
charge
and
which
is
currently
set
at
40
cents
for
a
reduced
lunch
meal
and
30
cents
for
a
reduced
breakfast
meal.
It
is
recommended
to
update
the
reduced
price
to
zero
or
free
beginning
on
October
11th
and
allow
for
families
that
qualify
for
reduced
pricing
to
receive
meals
free
of
charge.
D
Under
the
federal
program
identification,
the
family
would
be
considered
qualified
for
reduced
pricing.
However,
the
district
would
waive
the
reduced
charge.
This
will
cost
the
nutrition
service
program
an
estimated
twenty
five
thousand
dollars
for
the
Year
and
have
an
impact
on
275
students
and
their
families.
D
Thank
you.
The
fiscal
year
ending
2022
annual
financial
report
at
the
Watertown
school
district
has
been
submitted
and
approved
by
the
department
of
Ed.
The
following
report
provides
a
briefing
of
each
fund
at
fiscal
year.
End
tables
related
to
the
2023
adopted
budget.
Federal
cares
breakdowns
for
both
K-12
and
latc.
Also
included
is
latc's
profile
found
on
page
31
and
K-12
strategic
plan
beginning
on
page
40..
Please
note
that
the
pdf
version
of
this
report
can
be
found
on
the
district's
website
pages.
D
One
through
seven
of
the
document
include
a
briefing
of
each
fund
at
fiscal
year
end.
The
general
fund
originally
anticipated
a
use
of
cash
on
hand
with
actual
transactions
coming
in
at
692
000
use
of
fund
balance.
This
fund
did
not
receive
a
transfer
in
from
the
capital
outlay
fund.
It
is
the
intention
of
the
fund
to
decrease
to
decrease
a
portion
of
capital
outlay
support
through
fiscal
year
24
in
order
to
maximize
future
projects
and
facility
planning.
D
The
June
30th
2022,
ending
fund
balance
of
the
general
fund
was
7.6
million
or
27.75
percent
of
the
fiscal
Year's
expenditures.
Future
anticipation
of
this
fund
includes
funding
under
Esser
round
three
to
offset
identified
positions
that
assist
with
learning
and
academic
loss.
This
anticipation
and
funding
is
estimated
at
seven
hundred
and
twelve
thousand
dollars
per
year
through
fiscal
year.
2024.,
this
accommodation
of
federal
funding
will
minimize
the
effect
of
the
anticipated
enrollment
decline.
D
The
ending
fund
balance
in
the
capital
outlay
fund
is
at
10
million,
with
notation
that
2
million
is
reserved
for
the
last
year's
phase
of
the
high
school
renovation
project.
Excluding
the
renovation
set
aside
from
the
balance
allocate
7.9
million
in
available
funding.
This
is
an
increase
of
3.5
million
from
fiscal
year
2020..
D
D
A
comfortable
level
of
funding
operation
within
the
special
education
fund
would
be
a
15
fund
balance
as
we
move
forward
into
the
new
fiscal
year.
The
district
continues
to
monitor
this
fund
with
continued
ways
to
accommodate
the
needs
of
its
special
education.
Students
at
an
affordable
means
the
financial
activity
of
Lake
Area
Technical
College
reflects
an
anticipated
Financial
decrease
of
1.4
million.
The
diesel
expansion
building
project
was
approved
at
8.1
million,
with
funding
to
be
accommodated
by
funds
from
private
donations.
D
Other
activity
noted
within
the
report
includes
budgeted
activity
as
well
as
profit
and
loss
statements
within
the
Enterprise
funds
of
both
K-12
and
latc,
including
the
operation
of
K-12
nutrition,
Arena
concessions
driver's
ed
preschool
and
for
latc
the
bookstore
food
service
and
EduCare
major
identifi
identifiers.
That
I
would
like
to
point
out
is
that
K-12
nutrition
operated
under
the
federally
approved
SSO
operation
in
which
provided
free
breakfast
and
lunch
meals
to
students.
D
Last
fiscal
year,
latc
EduCare
received
120
310
dollars
in
both
state
and
federal,
cares
funding
aside
from
operation
in
the
major
and
Enterprise
funds,
the
district
also
oversees
29
million.
As
noted
on
page
8
of
the
report
and
custodial
and
internal
service
funds,
including
self-funded
Insurance
and
latc
financial
aid,
the
balance
sheet
for
self-funded
insurance
is
noted
on
page
17,
in
which
notes
a
one
million
dollar
decline
in
available
cash
on
hand.
In
a
recent
renewal
meeting,
it
was
noted
that
the
district
claims
have
increased
by
21
from
prior
year.
D
It
is
anticipated
that
this
fund
will
decrease
by
1.5
million
this
fiscal
year
with
an
estimated
fund
balance
just
under
5
million.
The
need
to
increase
premium
is
intended
as
we
review
the
2023
renewal
and
plan
for
negotiations
for
the
23-24
year.
This
document
provides
a
recap
of
a
previous
year.
A
look
into
anticipations
for
2023
and
general
information
to
assist
in
decision
making
for
the
district
I'd
be
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
If
you
have
any.
A
F
Yes,
we
have
one
open
enrollment
for
your
approval.
A
F
Just
a
reminder:
vice
president
Stiles
mentioned
this,
that
it
was
in
the
lake
area
portion
but
Thursday
the
13th
at
noon
on
fourth
floor
of
Lake,
Area,
The,
Joint,
meeting
of
the
Watertown
school
board
and
the
lake
area
strategic
Council
this
week
is
national
school
lunch
week.
We
are
celebrating
that
by
offering
all
students
a
free
meal
on
Friday,
so
free
lunch.
F
So
for
those
students
out
there
join
us
for
lunch,
and
this
one
will
be
on
Watertown
Foods
Food
Service
program,
and
then
we
will
delve
into
the
financial
report
a
little
bit
further.
With
a
second
meeting,
we
thought
it
was
going
to
be
a
second
meeting,
October
it'll
creep
into
November
we're
looking
at
5
30
at
the
district
offices
on
November
1st,
that's
a
Tuesday,
so
second
meeting
before
the
November
14th
meeting
and
then
finally,
if
I
have
Mr
Barrios
put
up,
but
just
an
update
for
the
board
and
the
public.
F
But
if
you've
been,
if
you've
driven
by
the
turf
is
down
and
asphalt
is
down
and
those
are
actually
outdated
already
because
they
were
taken
this
morning
and
if
you
drive
by
yet
tonight,
you
will
see
most
of
the
lettering
being
filled
in
including
the
Big
W
in
the
middle
and
the
lake
area
logo.
So
but
phase
one
is
progressing
nicely
that
still
has
a
December
1
completion
and
I'm,
putting
it
out
