Heavenly
Father,
thank
you
for
the
opportunity
we
have
tonight
to
meet
together
and
work
on
the
business
of
this
district
and
help
drive
it
forward.
Lord.
Thank
you
for
the
privilege
that
we
have
every
day
to
take
care
of
thousands
of
children
and
influence
them
for
the
betterment
of
our
County
and
of
our
nation.
Thank
you
for
the
families
that
reside
here
in
Clay
County
and
entrust
their
children
to
us
with
their
education.
D
Father
I
pray
that
you
would
be
with
us
as
we
meet
tonight,
Lord
that
everything
we
say
and
do
would
be
pleasing
to
your
ears.
Lord
and
I
pray
for
all
the
students
as
we're
in
the
testing
season.
Lord
I
pray
that
you'd
be
with
them,
that
a
spirit
of
peace
would
rest
on
the
schools,
and
you
would
just
give
our
students
the
ability
to
draw
from
the
knowledge
that
they've
gained
this
year
again
be
with
us
tonight
as
we
meet
and
it's
in
your
holy
name.
C
Want
to
welcome
citizens
of
Clay
County
I'd
like
to
take
this
opportunity
to
thank
you
for
taking
your
time
out
of
your
busy
schedules
to
attend
tonight's
school
board.
Meeting
this
meeting
is
our
opportunity,
as
your
elected
representatives,
to
collaborate
openly
and
make
decisions
that
will
decide
the
future
direction
of
our
public
schools
and
the
education
of
our
children
here
in
Clay
County.
If
you
wish
to
address
the
board,
there
will
be
an
opportunity
to
speak
for
three
minutes.
C
Please
fill
out
a
card
which
you
will
find
located
in
the
back
of
the
room,
indicating
the
specific
item
number
or
topic
that
you
wish
to
speak
about
and
turn
it
in
promptly.
No
additional
cards
will
be
accepted
once
the
board
moves
to
the
discussion
agenda,
your
participation
is
welcomed
and
appreciated.
C
The
first
item
up
is
the
adoption
of
the
consent
agenda,
but
I
will
note
that
item
number
c-32
has
been
pulled
to
discussion,
so
we
will
take
that
up
afterwards.
Before
we
bring
the
adoption
of
the
consent
agenda,
we
do
have
several
cards
or
folks
that
would
like
to
speak
to
the
consent
agenda.
So
I
will
go
through
those
quickly.
F
Five
for
general
general
operator's
license
experience
and
may
receive
additional
credit
for
each
year
of
verified,
full-time
school
bus
driving
experience
up
to
a
maximum
initial
placement
of
step.
11
upon
ratification
of
this
contract,
current
employed
school
bus
drivers
on
step,
one
to
four
will
be
moved
to
step.
Five
retroactive
from
July
1st
2015
additional
experience
for
current
school
bus
drivers
will
not
be
granted
beyond
Step
five
Clay
County
school
bus
drivers
that
separate
from
employment
and
are
subsequently
rehired
as
school
dist.
F
Our
school
bus
drivers
will
be
placed
at
Step
five
and
not
granted
additional
experience
credit
now.
For
me,
this
means
that
after
nine
years
of
faithful
service,
I
will
move
to
Step
five
tonight,
I
will
move
from
11
dollars
and
73
cents
an
hour
up
to
twelve
dollars
and
fifteen
cents
an
hour
a
forty
two
cents,
an
hour
pay
raise
right.
So
yay
me.
The
thing
is,
though,
someone
that
drove
a
bus
for
six
years
in
Gila
Bend
Arizona
can
start
out
six
steps.
F
Above
me,
that
is
fourteen
dollars
and
fifty
cents
an
hour
or
two
dollars
and
forty
three
cents
an
hour
more
than
me
at
minimum
contract
hours.
That
is
two
thousand
seven
hundred
dollars
a
year
as
bad
as
this.
For
me,
imagine
that
you
are
driving
sitting
at
a
driver
setting
at
step
ten,
you
get
a
nickel
an
hour
which
comes
out
to
less
than
sixty
dollars
a
year.
I
mentioned
this
because
the
last
several
months,
mr.
F
Van
Zandt,
has
portrayed
both
unions
as
greedy
and
uncooperative,
and
the
majority
of
the
senior
staff
eagerly
jumped
on
the
bandwagon
demonizing
and
demoralizing
people
who
had
swallowed
their
pride
by
agreeing
to
the
slapping
face.
I
just
read
to
you
so
understand
this.
We
held
our
noses
as
we
voted
overwhelmingly
to
ratify
this
with
86%,
but
you
are
by
no
means
off
the
hook.
The
problem
with
our
education
system
is
our
political
system
in
November
is
the
reset
button
you
in
IO
in
that
is
a
five
letter
word.
Not
a
four
letter
word
folks.
G
H
H
We
have
been
seven
about
seven
years
without
a
step
increase
and
we
asked
for
help,
but,
like
mr.
Nicol
says,
we
are
going
to
have
people
step
over
us
when
they
come
here
to
be
hired
worst
appreciation
for
loyalty.
I,
don't
know,
I
do
know
that
we
need
drivers
and
I
do
know
that
the
only
way
we're
going
to
get
drivers
is
we're.
Gonna
have
to
bring
that
pay
scale
up,
but
I
don't
feel
like
it's
right
on
the
backs
of
the
people
who
have
worked
for
you,
Laura
Laura
Lee.
H
H
Everybody
knows
that,
but
I
will
say
this
I
would
like
to
take
the
opportunity.
I
wasn't
here
when
you
voted
YES
on
our
insurance
and
I.
Think
each
and
every
one
of
you
who
voted
YES
for
our
insurance
to
change
our
insurance.
We
needed
to
help
you
listen.
Do
you
hurt
us,
but
I
hope
you
listening
tonight
to
stepping
over
us
hard-working
that
we've
been
here,
somebody
coming
off
the
streets
going
to
step
over
us
and
go
to
step,
11
and
I.
H
I
I
The
morale
I've
never
seen
it
as
low
as
what
it
is
right
now
and
I
really
am
hopeful
that
we
can
get
this
behind
us
and
move
forward
to
a
new
era.
Our
people
feel
unappreciated
and,
while
a
nickel,
it's
not
much
but
a
nickel
added
to
their
pay
scale,
a
nickel
reoccurring
added
to
their
pay
scale.
It
meant
enough
that
they
were
able
to
take
the
good
with
the
bad.
I
I
know
they're
important,
you
know,
I
know
that's
when,
when
the
rubber
meets
the
road,
but
typically
we
begin
bargaining
right
after
the
fourth
calculation
in
1314
we
began
bargaining
right
after
the
fourth
calculation
school
board's
bargaining
team
brought
to
us
first
proposal
status
quo,
nothing
1415.
We
began
bargaining
after
our,
we
were
still
bargaining
after
the
fourth
calculation
school
board's
team
brought
to
us
status
quo,
nothing
tonight
we're
going
to
ratify
the
1415
contract
and
encompass
the
1516,
and
then
we're
going
to
get
started
on
the
1617.
I
When
I
think
about
negotiations
and
bargaining,
the
status
quo
isn't
bargaining.
We
need
to
get
creative,
we
need
to
work
together.
We
need
to
put
our
heads
together
and
come
up
with
some
things.
A
hundred
dollar
bonus
that
would
be
taxed
at
a
high
rate
is
not
what
our
people
need.
They
need
reoccurring,
funds
that
put
food
on
the
table
a
couple
of
days
off.
That's
a
great,
a
great
thing,
paid
days
off
that
I
think
mr.
Bronski
came
up
with
that
idea.
I
It
was
very
creative
and
I
appreciated
his
creativity,
but
it
doesn't
put
food
on
the
table
and
that's
what
our
people
need.
They
need
money
funds
to
put
food
on
the
table
and
I
hope
that,
as
we
start,
the
six,
the
1617
contract
negotiations
that
you'll
think
of
that
and
don't
come
with
the
first
proposal
being
status
quo.
Thank
you.
Thank.
J
Pretty
lawless,
my
addresses
on
file
I
do
not
stand
before
you
tonight
to
attack
you
I
know
how
skittish
you
are
now
intimidating.
You
find
this
group
of
teachers.
I've
always
tried
to
present
a
rational
and
logical
defense
of
my
profession,
and
it
saddens
me
to
note
that
my
words
have
fallen
on
mostly
deaf
ears.
You
see
I
know
that
what
you
do
speaks
more
truth
than
what
you
say.
J
I
sat
in
this
audience
in
this
very
room
when
the
2015/2016
Clay
County
Teacher
of
the
Year,
clearly
explained
that
a
neighboring
County
was
better
able
to
protect
and
provide
for
his
young
family
than
this
one
later
I
read
where
it
was
said
that
no
one
could
know
his
intentions
on
leaving
the
county.
Well,
you
can't
know
if
you
listen,
I
also
sat
here
during
the
hearing
the
impasse
hearing.
J
It
was
appalled
that
your
lawyer
said
that
the
high
turnover
rate
was
not
an
issue
because
it's
been
high
for
some
time
spend
high
because
there's
a
problem.
Sorry,
the
workload
has
increased
exponentially.
The
stress
that
we
all
face
is
mind-boggling.
If
your
intent
is
to
kill
public
education
you're,
doing
a
good
job.
I've
always
thought
of
public
education
is
the
great
equalizer.
There's
no
class,
no
race,
no
religion.
No
political
party.
We
come
together
to
learn.
J
I
just
want
to
teach
my
students,
engineering
I
want
to
instill
in
them
a
passion
for
learning
so
that
they
continue
to
learn
even
when
their
school
days
are
over.
I
want
them
to
know
how
to
get
along
with
others
and
how
to
work
together,
even
if
they
don't
agree,
or
even
heaven
forbid,
when
they
don't
like
each
other.
That
will
be
that's
what
will
be
expected
of
them
when
they
grow
up,
unless,
of
course,
they
get
elected
to
the
school
board.
J
Tonight,
I
will
confront
you
again
in
hopes
that
something
I
say
might
make
a
difference
during
the
day
I'm
a
faithful
teacher,
an
employee
that
will
work
hard
to
meet
the
needs
of
my
students.
Despite
what
you
decide
tonight,
I'm
hoping
that
when
you
make
these
decisions,
you
think
of
me
and
teachers
like
me
who
already
work
for
you
and
the
children
and
the
parents
of
this
county.
J
We
work
hard
and
are
said
that
so
many
of
our
fellow
teachers
are
dropping
out
either
to
go
to
another
County
that
offers
more
in
the
way
of
compensation
or
a
job
protection
or
to
leave
the
profession
completely.
You
were
recommended
options
that
did
not
cost
you
anything
and
would
have
won
the
favor
of
your
teachers.
Yet
you
chose
to
slap
us
down
yet
again.
I
propose
that
if
you
have
a
bad
teacher,
quote-unquote
bad
teacher
after
three
years
of
effective
or
highly
effective
ratings,
you
don't
have
a
teacher
problem.
You
have
an
administrator
problem.
J
K
L
At
Clay
County,
my
address
is
on
file
tonight
you're,
going
to
vote
to
approve
the
teachers
contract
for
the
school
year
that
ends
in
30
days
or
less
on
Monday
April
18th,
our
superintendent
send
an
email
to
every
member
of
the
bargaining
unit
saying
he
wanted
to
give
teachers
a
$500
raise
all
along
and
testifying
to
his
captive
audience
that
he
had
always
been
a
supporter
of
teachers.
Teachers
know
that
this
is
far
from
the
truth.
Mr.
van
zan
has
shown
consistent
opposition
to
teachers
needs
and
requests.
L
He's
repeatedly
voted
against
our
teacher
contract
in
two
thousand
nine
ten,
ten
eleven
and
eleven
twelve.
Even
when
every
other
board
member
voted
for
the
contract,
he
voted.
No.
The
salary
proposal
sought
to
take
away
four
hundred
and
fifty
dollars
an
hourly
pay
for
professional
development
hours.
Teachers
were
being
forced
to
work
that
hourly
pay
would
be
replaced
with
roughly
the
same
amount
of
money
but
paid
into
our
salary.
L
Instead,
however,
even
though
teachers
would
not
get
paid
for
the
extra
time
they
were
putting
in,
we
would
still
be
held
responsible
for
adding
this
training
time
into
our
schedule.
This
Raposa
was
a
zero
gain
for
teachers,
not
a
salary
increase.
The
reason
teachers
voted
to
ratify
this
contract
is
that
the
county
made
a
mistake
at
the
hearing.
L
Their
intention
was
to
take
away
the
PLC
money
already
promised
and
replace
it
with
the
same
money
on
our
salary,
but
by
the
impasse
hearing
date,
teachers
had
near
work
nearly
all
of
the
extra
hours
and
been
paid
for
them.
The
language
stopped
paying
PLC's
and
put
the
500
on
salary
was
a
legal
contract
that
they
approved.
You
approved
teachers
know
that
if
mr.
Van
Zandt
could
get
out
of
paying
the
teachers
he
would.
L
This
is
a
lucky
mistake
in
our
favor
and
luck
is
the
only
thing
teachers
can
count
on
in
Clay
County
right
now.
Teachers
are
angry,
tired
of
the
disrespect,
tired
of
coming
to
school
board
meetings
to
fight
with
the
superintendent
in
the
board.
Mr.
Van
Zandt
wrote
in
his
email
that
he
wants
to
move
forward,
working
together,
avoiding
scenarios
like
the
recent
impasse,
but
moving
forward
is
only
possible
when
there's
mutual
respect,
a
shared
vision
and
a
willingness
to
compromise.
L
Unfortunately,
there
is
a
pervasive
climate
of
disrespect,
disregard
and
dishonesty
toward
employees
at
clay
schools.
The
teachers
of
Clay
County
hear
your
words,
but
we
do
not
see
the
corresponding
actions
as
teachers.
We
expect
to
be
allowed
to
focus
fully
on
our
students.
We
need
to
know
that
the
leaders
of
our
district
place
our
students
welfare
above
their
political
agenda.
We
want
to
trust
that
our
leaders
are
willing
to
sacrifice
the
same
way.
Teachers
do
every
day
provide
the
best
learning
experiences
possible
for
our
students.
L
C
B
Yes,
I
wanted
to
introduce
Lauren
banker.
Lauren
I
didn't
tell
you
that
beforehand,
but
if
you
would
just
stand
up
and
wave,
this
is
our
new
coordinator
of
communications.
She
has
helped
us
this.
We
kind
of
standardize
our
process
with
proclamations
and
you're,
going
to
hear
some
of
those
proclamations
along
with
the
recognitions
this
month
and
next
month
for
the
end
of
the
school
year
activities.
So
thank
you
Lauren
and
welcome
to
Clay
County.
Thank.
C
C
Okay,
we
do
have.
There
are
four
proclamations
that
we
are
going
to
read
before
we
adopt
the
consent
agenda
because
they
are
actually
on
the
consent
agenda
and
two
of
them
I
just
want
to
say
we're
actually
on
last
month's
consent
agenda,
but
there
was
actually
no
written
proclamation
and
we
didn't
actually
read
anything
so
we're
going
to
address
both
of
those
tonight,
along
with
the
other
two
that
we
had
intended,
and
so
the
first
one
is
see
it's
proclamation,
16,
16,
Administrative
Professionals
week
and
I
believe
mascara
kiss
you
have
that
one
I
do.
N
Now,
therefore,
be
it
resolved.
The
school
board
of
Clay
County
does
hereby
proclaim:
April
24
through
the
30th
2016
as
Administrative
Professionals
week
and
April
27
2016,
as
Administrative
Professionals
Day
in
Clay
County,
duly
adopted
and
approved
by
the
school
board
of
Clay
County.
This
21st
day
of
April
2016,
okay,.
C
Recent
achievements,
including
our
a
rating
and
a
record
high
school
graduation
rate
and
whereas
we
each
remember
our
most
cherished
teachers
and
reflect
on
their
influence
in
our
lives
and
whereas
teachers
deserve
the
gratitude
of
students,
parents
and
all
citizens
who
benefit
from
the
education
in
Clay
County.
Now,
therefore,
be
it
resolved
the
school,
but
School
Board
of
Clay
County
does
hereby
proclaim
May
2nd
through
the
6th
2016
as
teacher
appreciation
week
and
May
3rd
2016,
as
teacher
appreciation
day
in
Clay
County,
duly
adopted
and
approved

Good
evening
earlier
this
spring
Clay
County
participated
in
just
read
floor
to
celebrate
literacy
week,
schools
around
the
district
planned
special
events
that
highlighted
literacy
at
the
district
level.
We
sponsor
both
an
essay
contest
and
an
art

and
the
winners
first
place.
Winners.
Work
has
been
posted
on
our
district
website
tonight.
We
are
proud
to
recognize
our
first-place
winners
in
these
contests.
G
C
C
R
Of
you
know
this
is
the
time
of
year.
We
would
like
to
recognize
our
science
fair
winners.
So
tonight
we
got
the
pleasure
of
recognizing
the
outstanding
work
of
not
only
the
students
but
also
the
teachers,
the
parents
and
all
that
they
do,
but
also
we
have
some
of
our
business
partners
here.
I
can
tell
ya
all
of
you
know
that
clay
wrote
Aryans,
do
such
a
wonderful
job
also,
yes,
so
give
them
a
round
of
applause.
Clay,
Rotarian
appreciate
that.
R
Also
we
want
to
recognize
and
they're
going
to
come
up
in
just
a
few
minutes,
but
Orange
Park,
Medical
Center.
They
also
do
a
wonderful
job
and
help
us
throughout
the
year.
So
we're
really
excited
in
fact,
you're
going
to
hear
more
news
and
probably
a
couple
weeks
about
a
even
a
deeper
partnership
with
Orange
Park
Medical.
We'll
talk
about
that
later
so,
but
at
this
time
I
want
the
person
at
the
county
office
that
works
with
all
the
science,
fair
directors,
the
science,
fair
science
teachers.
R
Let
her
come
up,
introduced
the
winners
and
introduce
those
business
partners,
and
she
does
a
tremendous
amount
of
work.
If
you
all
of
you
have
come
to
the
science
fair,
you
see
what
a
big
event
that
is.
We've
got
our
state
science,
fair
attendees.
Many
of
them
took
places
down
at
the
state
science
fair.
So
we're
excited
about
that.
So
let
me
introduce
our
curriculum
specialist
who
handles
this
event.
Miss
Nancy
Watson.
U
U
There
are
a
lot
of
behind-the-scenes
things
that
you
don't
go
seeing
on
and
even
though
I
usually
get
my
name
called
out.
It's
so
many
people,
and
so
many
teachers,
and
so
many
administrators,
and
so
many
people
that
support
it
and
our
superintendent
as
well
and
and
so
we'd
like
to
start
tonight
by
calling
up
I'd
like
to
recognize
few
people,
I'd
like
to
start
with
Miss
Lillian

Aryans,
it's
all
of
them
to
come
to
support
that.
So
thank
you
very
much.
U
If
I
could
I'd
like
to
have
them
stay
up
here,
maybe
our
students
could
line
up
right
in
front
of
them.
This
year
we
had
the
pleasure
of
taking
14
projects
to
the
state,
Science
and
Engineering
Fair
in
Florida
and
I'd
like
to
announce
all
the

gonna.
If
you
could
hold
your
applause
to
the
end,

the

these
children
were

Thank
you
in
fact,
we're
going

have
those

give
the
presentation.
Okay
serve
all
this
credit
along
with
Orange
Park
High

but
while
Jordan
gets
the
PowerPoint
set
out.
Let
me
just
give
you
a
little
history
on
how
this
project
has
come
to
fruition.
Several
months
ago,
the
several
members
of
the
instructional
division
met
and
it
just
so
talented
the
people
at
mr.
Obama's
corner
gay,
dr.
Weiskopf,
Francis,
Ellis,
Dana
Brock,
all
those
folks
Mets.
R
We
sat
in
a
room
and
worked
on
a
couple
different
projects
and
we're
so
proud
to
announce
tonight
the
partnership,
a
strengthening
strengthening
of
a
partnership
that
we
already
have
with
Saint
Johns
River
state
superintendents,
been
involved
in
some
of
those
discussions
and
meetings,
and
he
full
support
behind
this
program.
So
we
do
appreciate
that,
but
I
want
to
introduce
the
vice
president
academic
affairs
right
now,
she's
going
to
come
up,
introduce
her
folks
they're,
going
to
share
a
few
minutes
with
you,
along
with
the
principal
of
Orange
Park
High
School,
mr.
Clayton
Anderson.
R
W
Thank
you.
It's
a
real
pleasure
to
be
here
today.
I
have
several
folks
with
me
from
SJ.
Our
state
come
on
over
here,
so
I
can
introduce
you,
I
have
with
me,
Megan
deputy
she's,
the
director
of
dual
enrollment
for
the
college
and
dr.
Edward
Jordan
he's
the
associate
vice
president
for
academic
affairs
and
Kristen
Nicholson,
the
dual
enrollment
specialist
here
for
Clay
County.
W
Our
team
here
has
been
a
been
our
pleasure
to
partner
with
the
Clay
County
School
District,
to
develop
this
collegiate
high
school
at
Orange,
Park
High
School,
and
we
did
this
really
quickly
just
over
the
past.
Really
it's
just
been
two
months
or
so,
and
basically
we
just
wanted
to
share
a
couple
of
things
with
you
tonight
and
let
you
know
this
initiative.
We've
always
had
a
very
strong
partnership
with
the
Clay
County
School
District
that
we've
been
very
proud
of,
and
this
new
program
is
very
exciting.
W
It's
something
that
we've
kind
of
wanted
to
start
and
within
one
of
our
three
counties.
As
you
know,
st.
Johns,
River,
State
College
serves
clay,
Putnam
and
st.
Johns
counties,
and
we
have
a
very
strong
dual
enrollment
program
within
our
three
counties.
We
have
about
10,000
students
amongst
our
three
counties
and
of
those
10,000
about
1,800
are
dual
enrollment
students.
So
we
have
a
very
strong
dual
enrollment
population,
we're
committed
to
dual
enrollment,
but
we
don't
really
have
a
traditional
collegiate
high
school
as
you
think
of
it.
W
So
I've
I've
personally
been
very
interested
in
starting
one
of
those
and
when
mr.
Wingate
kind
of
mentioned
to
me
that
he
was
interested
in
doing
something
different
at
Orange,
Park
I
said
hey
well
what
about
a
collegiate
high
school,
and
so
we
were
able
to
pull
our
teams
together
and
in
really
short
period
of
time,
come
up
with
this,
and
it's
going
to
work
really
well
for
your
students
for
our
students,
so
the
collegiate
high
school
model
that
we're
going
to
be
starting
at
Orange
Park.
W
This
fall
will
be
a
cohort
model
which
will
enable
high
school
students
to
earn
both
their
high
school
diploma
and
their
associated
arts
degree,
while
they're
still
enrolled
in
high
school.
Now
we
already
already
have
students
that
do
that,
so
this
isn't
entirely
new.
But
what
makes
this
very
special
is
that
it's
a
very
organized
program,
those
students
who
are
who
have
been
earning
their
AAA
through
dual
enrollment.
That's
something
that
they've
done
very
pointedly
by
working
with
their
high
school
counselor.
But
they've
done
it.
You
know
in
ones
and
twos.
W
It
hasn't
been
a
group
of
students
at
a
high
school
who
fund
on
a
track
to
do
that
from
the
ninth
grade
and
that's
what's
going
to
be
happening
now
at
Orange,
Park,
High
School.
So,
as
you
can
see,
starting
in
the
ninth
grade,
we'll
have
students
who
are
going
to
be
taking
classes
at
Orange,
Park,
High
School.
As
early
as
the
9th
grade
working
towards
that
a
a
in
the
12th
grade,
the
students
are
going
to
be
taking
classes
at
our
Orange
Park
campus.
Just
like
our
regular
dual
enrollment
students.
W
They
have
to
be
eligible
for
dual
enrollment,
so
the
students
who
we
invited
to
participate
will
be
starting
in
the
fall.
They
had
taken
a
high
school
class
in
the
8th
grade
and
they
had
the
eligibility
requirements.
They
met
the
3.0
high
school
on
GPA
in
one
of
those
high
school
classes
that
you
guys
offer
in
your
eighth
grade
curriculum.
W
Those
are
two
college
classes
and
those
will
be
what
they
take
in
the
ninth
grade
in
the
10th
grade,
they'll
be
taking
a
total
of
two
will
be
taking
two
classes
in
the
fall
and
two
classes
in
the
spring,
in
the
11th
grade,
they'll
be
taking
on
two
classes
in
the
fall
two
classes
in
the
spring
and
then
in
the
12th
grade.
So
that's
a
total
of
30
college
credit
that
they'll
earn
in
9th
10th
and
11th
grade.
W
That's
half
of
the
AAA
and
then
in
the
12th
grade
will
be
taking
30
college
credits
15
in
the
fall
15
in
the
spring,
to
total
the
60
credits,
which
is
what
is
required
to
earn
the
a
a
the
Associate
in
Arts
degree,
is
the
legally
in
the
state
of
Florida.
It's
the
transfer
degree.
So
Florida
has
the
two
plus
two
agreement,
and
so
these
students
will
be
ready
to
transfer
seamlessly
into
their
bachelor's
degrees
that
we've
also
laid
out
for
students
the
four-year
class
plan.
W
So
they
can
see
how
this
works
with
their
high
school
classes
and
what
they'll
be
taking
as
well
as
their
college
courses,
and
the
advantage
is
that
this
collegiate
high
school
are
pretty
obvious.
The
students
will
be
having
academic
challenge
they'll,
be
developing
their
critical
thinking,
skills
in
these
college
classes.
W
But
really
the
big
benefit
to
a
collegiate
high
school
is
that
these
students
are
experiencing
an
accelerated
pathway
to
a
college
degree
or
degrees,
and
we've
spent
a
lot
of
time
talking
with
these
students
about
what
it
means.
The
this
is
a
big
responsibility:
they're
going
to
be
taking
college
classes
in
ninth
grade,
so
that
meant
a
lot
to
me
as
the
academic
vice
president
for
a
college.
W
It's
there's
financial
savings.
Obviously,
here
for
parents
and
students
and
those
are
primarily
the
basics
of
our
program.
Mr.
Anderson
is
going
to
talk
a
little
bit
more
about
it.
X
Thank
you,
as
you
can
see,
this
is
something
we're
very
excited
about.
Orange
Park,
High
School
having
these
kids
come
in
and
be
able
to
continue
to
build
this
relationship
that
we
already
have
with
st.
Johns
River.
This
is
just
a
great
opportunity
here
for
our
young
people
to
excel
and
to
benefit
long-term
with.
That
being
said,
you
might
ask
how
many
people
were
addressed
with
this.
We
sent
out
over
800
letters
to
eighth
graders
across
the
junior
high.
X
We
only
accepted
sixty
all
right,
so
we're
sitting
at
sixty
we're
going
to
be
sending
those
letters
out.
So
obviously,
there's
that
rigor
involved
that
we're
expecting
these
kids
to
excel.
We
want
to
see
them
really
grow
as
individuals,
of
course,
and
really
just
become
better
people,
and
that's
the
great
thing
about
high
school
being
a
part
of
this
as
well,
because
they're
still
going
to
have
the
opportunity
at
the
high
school
experience,
they'll
still
be
able
to
participate
in
sports
or
banned
in
extracurricular
activities.
X
We
want
them
to
be
well-rounded
young
people,
because
we
want
them
to
be
wonderful
adults
and
have
opportunities
that
are
endless,
and
this
is
a
great
opportunity
for
that.
So
building
these
relationships,
and
we
just
appreciate
st.
John's,
bringing
us
on
board
and
look
forward
to
that.
Fostering
that
relationship.
It's
great.

X
E
W
N
W
Orange
Park
High,
School
or
online.
Thank
you,
okay,
and
this
is
not
going
to
replace
the
traditional
dual
enrollment
that
Orange
Park
High
School
students
are.
There
are
other
Orange
Park
high
school
students
who
have
already
always
engaged
in
dual
enrollment,
and
that
program
is
going
to
continue.
Terrific.
C
Our
next
presentation
and
last
and
certainly
not
least,
mrs.
Kathy
Schofield,
is
going
to
give
us
a
presentation
on
instructional
materials
adoption
process,
and
this
was
something
that
I
had
requested
specifically
so
I
appreciate
you
so
much
for
taking
the
time
to
put
this
together
and
bring
this
to
the
board.
Thank
you.
Y
So
I
need
my
glasses
to
see
the
computer,
but
not
to
see
you.
So
it's
those
40
eyes
if
you
haven't
woken
up
and
gotten
them
yet,
and
so
anyhow,
I
would
like
to
give
you
a
very
brief
presentation
tonight
on
how
the
instructional
materials
process
works
here
in
Clay
County
and
how
it
ties
into
the
statutes
that
are
in
place
that
we
implement
as
part
of
this
process.
Y
So
just
as
an
overview
we're
going
to
talk
about
what
the
state
requires.
What
the
cycle
says,
we
should
be
doing
how
the
funds
are
used
and
then
how
we
take
and
customize
that
process
here
in
clay
and
I
know
I'm
giving
you
the
20,000
foot
view
tonight.
So
if
you
have
further
questions,
I'd
be
glad
to
come
back
at
another
time,
so
the
key
components
of
what
we
do
is.
Y
It
is
categorical
funding
and
the
funds
that
we
receive
go
not
just
to
what
you
would
think
of
as
the
traditional
books,
but
also
our
dual
enrollment
funding
comes
out
of
there
there's
a
small
amount
that
goes
for
replenishing
science,
consumables,
there's
a
reading
allocation
in
ESEE
allocation
and
any
charter.
Schools
in
the
district
also
get
a
percent
of
those
funds
based
on
their
FTE.
Y
Now
what
our
instructional
materials
a
lot
of
times,
people
will
call
and
say:
can
I
buy
this
with
those
funds?
Well,
the
answer
is
the
instructional
materials
are
what
you
would
consider
to
be
the
major
tool
for
any
particular
course.
So
that
means
it
could
be
a
traditional
textbook.
It
could
be
online
components,
digital
materials
could
be
manipulatives
kits
lab
equipment,
even
books
that
they're
reading
and
I
don't
mean
that
how
that
came
out,
but
even
class
sets
of
library
type
books
that
you
wouldn't
normally
think
of
as
a
traditional
textbook.
Y
So
many
things
can
go
into
that
and
in
the
corner
there
there's
a
picture
of
our
policy
manual,
which
you
can
access
from
our
instructional
resources
website.
So
you're
probably
wondering
how
do
we
decide
what
we're
buying
on
any
given
year?
Well,
our
typical
adoption
cycle
lasts
for
five
years.
So
when
we
buy
books,
we're
looking
at
a
five-year
commitment
and
that
cycle
is
set
by
the
Department
of
Education,
they
tell
us
basically
what
courses
we'll
adopt
for
during
what
years.
Y
Y
Now,
when
you
look
at
the
use
of
the
funds
that
were
allocated,
you
may
have
heard
people
talk
about.
50%
has
to
be.
This.
50%
has
to
be
that
so
this
matrix
up
here,
just
kind
of
shows
you
that
on
that
top
row,
at
least
half
of
the
materials
we
adopt
are
half
of
the
money
we
spend
has
to
be
going
towards
either
blended
or
digital
resources,
and
the
other
half
can
be
your
traditional
textbooks.
So
what
the
state
is
doing
is
having
us
shift
our
focus
and
move
more
towards
that
digital
learning
environment.
Y
By
telling
us
at
least
half
the
funds
have
to
go
to
digital,
and
you
saw
through
last
year's
legislative
cycle
that
there
was
a
lot
of
talk
about
local
control
of
curriculum
and
they
have
actually
talked
about
doing
away
with
the
state-level
adoption
process,
and
that
was
not
approved,
which
was
really
a
good
thing,
because
what
happens?
Is
the
major
publishers
submit
their
materials
to
the
Department
of
Education
and
the
Department
of
Education
gets
teacher
committees
and
subject
matter
experts
to
review
the
materials
at
the
state
level?
Y
Once
they're
reviewed
at
the
state
level,
they
go
on
to
what
they
call
the
state
list.
Well,
half
of
what
we
spend
out
of
our
categorical
money
must
be
spent
at
least
half
on
things
that
are
on
the
state
list.
That
way,
we're
sure
that
we're
getting
vetted
resources
that
have
been
through
that
process
and
the
remaining
up
to
that
50%
threshold
can
be
for
things
which
have
not
been
on
the
state
list.
So
you
may
see
or
hear
about
is
that
on
the
state
list?
Y
Well,
yes,
or
no,
and
if
it's
not
be
assured
that
we
go
through
a
process
to
vet
those
materials
and
make
sure
that
they
are
meeting
the
needs
here
of
our
Clay
County
students,
as
well
as
making
sure
that
we're
in
compliance
with
the
state
statutes.
So
what
do
we
do
here?
There's
a
process
where
first,
the
state
calls
for
the
adoption
on
certain
courses,
as
I
mentioned,
the
publishers
who
are
interested
submit
their
bid
to
the
state
and
that's
where
we
start.
Y
We
start
with
the
state
list
and
we
reach
out
to
the
publishers
who
are
submitting
materials
and
we
ask
for
samples.
Then
we
establish
committees
to
review
the
materials
here
and
it's
been
done
different
ways
over
time.
What
we're
what
we've
done
now
is:
we've
looked
at
trying
to
represent
all
the
schools,
and
so
when
we
go
into
an
adoption,
we
would
ask
for
one
representative
for
in
Elementary,
for
instance,
representing
k3
in
an
adoption
and
another
for
the
intermediate,
because
we
want
both
of
those
voices
at
the
table.
Those
representatives
would
come
together.
Y
They'd
review
the
materials.
They
would
see
a
presentation
from
the
publisher
whether
that's
presented
on
a
video
that
they
submit
to
us
or
a
physical
presentation.
Then
they'd
go
back
to
their
school
and
build
consensus,
and
then
that
committee
would
come
back
and
vote
and
we
would
look
for
consensus
that
same
process
will
apply
if
you're
looking
at
a
course
in
a
high
school
or
if
you're,
looking
at
a
grade
level
in
junior
high
at
grade
level.
Subject:
area
like
English,
language,
arts
or
mathematics.
Y
Now
the
part
that
you'll
also
see
that's
been
new
is
now
the
legislation
says
that
twice
we
have
to
bring
the
public
through
a
public
hearing
where
they
can
come
and
comment
on
the
materials
or
say
what
they'd
like
to
say
about
them.
We
in
my
office
area,
we
have
a
period
of
time
where
those
materials
would
be
available
for
public
examination
and
thus
far
since
that's
gone
into
place.
Y
Y
Then,
once
we
go
through
that
process
and
narrow
down
to
what
the
Committee
recommends,
then
we
make
the
recommendation
to
the
board
and
then
you
approve
it
or
disapprove
it,
and
then
we
move
forward
and
order
materials
with
the
intent
of
having
everything
in
the
classrooms
for
the
start
of
school.
This
is
just
I'll
share
this
presentation
with
all
of
you,
but
this
just
pulls
out
some
of
the
statutes
that
apply
to
some
of
the
processes.
Y
I
talked
about,
especially
the
newer
ones,
and
we
do
maintain
a
website
and
on
the
website
you
can
find
a
list
of
all
of
the
currently
adopted
instructional
materials
by
course,
and
grade
level.
That's
just
a
piece
of
it
to
show
you
what
it
looks
like,
but
there's
tabs
across
the
bottom.
Historically
that'll
show
you
what
we
adopted
in
a
given
year.
You
can
see
the
comings
and
goings
of
the
adoptions.
Y
Are
teachers
that
serve
on
the
committee's?
What
we
do
is
we
have
each
of
the
schools
has
one
of
their
administrators
who
serves
as
the
instructional
materials
administrator
for
the
school
our
office
reaches
out
to
them
and
asks
for
a
recommendation
for
that
committee,
and
then
we
pull
those
people
in
that
way.
Now
this
year,
I'm
just
going
to
tell
you,
is
completely
different
because
we're
adopting
for
CTE,
so
we
may
have
three
schools
that
have
a
given
course
or
we
may
have
one
school
with
one
person
teaching
that
course.
Y
So
this
year
we've
worked
very
closely
with
Cherise
and
Alice
Paul
to
determine
how
to
structure
those
committees
so
that
everyone
has
a
voice,
and
some
of
the
courses
were
there's
only
been
three
teachers,
district-wide
we've
just
let
them
all
work
together
and
come
to
collaboration.
So
this
year,
my
first
year,
it's
like
doing
50
adoptions
and
they're
all
very
different,
but
for
next
year,
when
we're
adopting
a
core
content
area,
we'll
work
through
the
instructional
materials
administrator
and
then
have
the
committee
made
up
of
one
from
each
school.
Y
Everyone
else
will
still
get
to
see
the
materials
samples.
The
state
has
said
that
we
can
do
all
digital
sampling
or
we
can
send
samples
to
the
schools,
and
the
teachers
still
prefer
to
actually
have
the
books
to
look
at
so
we've
accommodated
them
and
every
school
will
have
a
set
of
everything
that's
being
considered,
so
everyone
can
see
it
so.
Y
What
we'll
end
up
with
this
year
is
depending
on
like,
for
instance,
if
we're
looking
at
US
history,
there'll
be
seven
on
that
committee,
one
from
each
school.
The
elementary
committee
will
be
bigger
because
we
will
actually
have
someone
from
intermediate
and
someone
at
primary.
Looking
at
those
materials
we
used
to
do
ten
people
or
six
people
or
eight
people,
and
what
we
really
have
found
is
a
lot
of
people
aren't
getting
the
same
voice
and
the
same
opportunity
to
really
understand
what
the
materials
are
all
about.
Y
Y
In
the
initial
screening
we
would
have
one
person
from
every
school
come
in
in
the
primary
grade
band
and
then
in
the
intermediate
grade
band
to
review
those
materials
in
depth,
see
the
presentations
and
be
able
to
go
back
to
their
school
and
work
with
the
other
teachers
to
discuss
the
materials.
To
come
to
consensus,
to
ask
more
questions,
and
that's.
S
S
E
Y
Y
Y
E
Q
S
Was
just
wondering
exactly
how
the
process
works
and
is
there
parental
input?
And,
of
course,
those
of
us
who
look
at
social
media
there's,
always
those
people
that
say
we're
teaching
horrible
things
to
our
children
and
I
want
to
make
sure
that
you
know
we've
got
the
process
in
place
that
we're
not
teaching
horrible
things
to
our
children.
Yes,.
Y
Ma'am
and
with
the
new
statutes
that
have
come
into
effect
and
when
we
move
into
this
next
traditional
cycle,
which
is
that
social
studies
cycle,
we
will
be
incorporating
that
community
voice,
the
parent
voice
and
again
anyone
who
ever
asks
now
to
come
in
and
look
at
anything.
We
open
the
doors
but
they'll
be
the
opportunity
for
them
to
engage
with
and
see
the
materials
and
that.
S
Y
Yes,
ma'am
and
you
know
we're
new
legislation
and
when
I
go
to
my
state
meeting,
everyone
discusses
how
we
should
best
implement
some
of
these
things,
so
we're
all
learning
together
as
we're
trying
to
build
the
new
process
to
make
sure
that
there's
local
control
over
the
curriculum
making
sure
that
we're
meeting
the
state
requirements
and
I'm
always
open
to
ideas.
You
know
being
new
in
the
role
I'm
happy
for
suggestions
and
we'll
always
you
know,
think
about
the
best
way
to
make
sure
that
we
have
the
voices
we
need
at
the
table
want.
C
So
maybe
somebody
from
that
committee
who
represents
the
community
could
sit
on
that
committee
and
then
that
way
they
could
take
what
they've
seen
and
learned
back
to
the
district
Advisory
Committee,
and
then
they
can
go
out
to
the
community
and
it
can
kind
of
you
know,
there's
a
connection
there.
Yes,.
Y
Y
N
Y
So
what
we
do
is
we
advertise
in
the
paper
that
were
considering
these
materials
for
adoption,
and
you
would
have
seen
it
two
times
this
year.
The
first
time
and
I
think
that
was
what
prompted
some
of
the
questions
was.
First,
we
came
to
the
board
to
ask
for
approval
to
advertise,
and
then
you
granted
the
permission
to
advertise,
and
then
we
moved
forward
with
asking
permission
to
adopt
material.
It.
Z
Y
Don't
know
the
answer
to
that
off.
The
top
of
my
head
I
can
find
that
out
and
let
the
board
know
I
do
know
that
when
they
have
their
FTE
numbers,
that
our
finance
division
allocates
some
of
those
dollars
over
to
them,
but
I
have
not
gone
that
deep
into
how
they
have
to
spend
their
money.
I
would
assume
that
they
have
to
follow
the
law,
since
it
is
state
categorical
money,
but
I
would
have
to
read
and
verify
that
for
you,
okay
and.
D
Then
one
other
question:
once
a
curriculum
is
adopted,
is
it
the
same
at
every
school,
because
I've
heard
that
different
schools
are
using
different
math
curriculum?
You
may
see
a
different
homework
and
one
kids
backpack
at
one
school
versus
another.
So
we
is
it
consistent
across
the
schools
or
how
do
we
implement
that?
Okay,
so
the.
Y
So
you
will
see
some
variation
other
things
you'll
see
like
in
math,
in
junior
high,
for
instance,
the
honors
classes
have
adopted
one
math
book
as
their
major
tool.
The
standard
classes
have
adopted
another
book
and,
let's
say
Miss
Smith
is
teaching
both
sections.
She
might
know
that
this
may
work
really
well
to
reach
these
children,
so
they
may
interchange
some
of
those
resources.
In
those
cases
we
never.
We
don't
want
to
ever
tell
teachers.
Y
D
So
into
okay.
That
promise
is
my
last
one
so
in
in
the
case
that
we're
using
supplemental
materials
or
something
that's
different
from
what's
published,
like
you
said
on
the
website,
where
you
show
all
the
different
textbooks
that
are
being
used,
is
there
a
way
that
we
could
involve
parents
and
knowing
the
books
or
the
videos
that
their
child
will
possibly
be
viewing
or
having
their
hands
throughout
the
school
year?
Can
that
be
like
a
submission
that
the
parents
get
at
the
start
of
the
year?
Y
That's
that's
really
difficult
for
me
to
answer,
because
we
we
with
this
particular
these
dollars.
We
are
trying
to
adopt
a
uniform
major
tool,
but
there's
a
lot
of
choices
that
teachers
have.
For
instance,
we
have
the
Discovery
streaming,
which
has
probably
tens
of
thousands
of
resources,
and
we
count
on
the
teachers
to
know
what
they
need
for
their
children
and
they
do.
They
do
wonderful
jobs
of
finding
the
best
resources
for
the
particular
content.
Y
C
O
On
your,
when
you
talk
about
the
selection
of
the
curriculum
in
the
textbooks
and
then
the
schools
can
supplement
in
the
ways
that
they
want
to
I
guess
my
first
question
would
be
if
we
have
selected
a
curriculum
that
is
comprehensive
that
meets
the
state
standards.
Why
do
we
need
to
spend
additional
money
to
supplement,
and
then
might
add
on
to
that
is
how
is
that
paid
for
at
the
different
schools?
O
Y
Ma'am,
so
part
of
the
categorical
allegation
allocation
that
we
get
is
called
growth
and
maintenance
and
in
those
growth
and
maintenance
funds,
what
we
do
is
we
roll
out
to
the
schools
based
on
their
FTE,
an
equal
amount
per
student
and
the
instructional
materials
manager
at
the
school
uses
that
money
for
a
couple
of
purposes,
one
of
the
purposes
being.
Let's
say
they,
actually
they
had
more
students
and
a
different
school
didn't
have
less
so
they
couldn't
get
the
adopted
resource,
but
they
are
also
permitted
to
get
some
supplemental
resources
out
of
those
funds.
Y
Y
So
let's
say:
Fleming
Island,
High
School
versus
a
small
elementary
school
Fleming,
Island
High
School,
has
say
a
thousand
kids,
let's
just
say,
and
if
it
was
five
dollars
per
FTE,
they
would
get
five
thousand
dollars
in
their
growth
and
maintenance
fund,
which
is
out
of
that
categorical
money
that
they
can
use
for,
adopted
curriculum
or
supplemental
resources,
but
a
smaller
school.
That
say
they
have
300
kids.
O
Dollar
my
resources
and
I
happen
to
live
in
the
end
of
the
county,
that's
much
less
populated
and
so
of
the
five
schools
that
are
in
the
district
in
which
I
know
I
represent
countywide,
but
the
five
schools
that
I
get
a
lot
of
parent
phone
calls
from
it's
not
the
same.
If
you
go
to
Keystone
Heights
High
School
versus,
if
you
go
to
Fleming
Island
High
School,
because
they
have
four
times
the
students,
so
they
have
more
to
buy
those
supplemental
resources.
I
think
the.
O
Y
O
Have
one
of
our
larger
elementary
schools,
you
can
buy
more
classroom
sets
of
books
because
it's
per
it's
based
on
all
the
students
in
the
elementary
school,
not
based
on
one
grade
level,
so
you
can
serve
more
classrooms
with
book
sets.
You
know
I'm
picturing,
these
bins,
that
the
teachers
carry
from
our
libraries
and
they
take
a
whole
set
of
books
so
that
each
student
can
use
one
you're
serving
if,
for
instance,
if
you're
at
Poe,
you
have
you
know
two
thousand
times
five
dollars
per
kid.
Y
And
you're
absolutely
correct.
That's
true
and
the
way
those
funds
are
sent
to
us
is
per
FTE
and
that's
we've
always
used
that
formula
to
allocate
it
that
way
and
that's
saying
because
that's
what
we
always
did,
that's
what
we
have
to
do.
But
what
I'll
need
to
do
is
just
go
back
and
look
at
the
statute
and
see
if
it
specifies
the
way
that
those
funds
are
rolled
to
the
schools.
So
I'll
take
that
as
an
action
item
to
check
on
that
and
see.
Y
Y
C
C
C
B
Thank
you,
madam
chair
I.
Just
have
two
quick
things
for
you
tonight.
One
two
weeks
ago
we
held
a
reception
in
Orange
Park,
High
School
invited
the
press
did
kind
of
a
press
conference
and
celebration.
We
had
a
great
year
in
terms
of
fixed
capital,
outlay
funding
coming
from
the
Florida
Legislature
to
Clay
County.
We
asked
for
based
on
the
board's
legislative
priorities,
fixed
capital
outlay
funding
to
expand
our
academy
opportunities
in
Clay.
B
That
was
your
number
one
priority
on
your
legislative
priorities,
and
we
also
asked
for
permanent
funding
reoccurring
funding
to
be
instituted
for
our
military-connected
kids.
Based
on
the
acreage
about
19
percent
of
Clay
County
land
is
Camp
Blanding
Florida.
We
were
successful
with
the
help
of
great
collaboration
between
our
legislative
delegation,
our
advocate
and
lobbyist
southern
strategies
and
our
business
community.
A
lot
of
people
work
together.
B
A
lot
of
people
went
to
Tallahassee
a
lot
of
our
business
community
that
is
partnered
with
our
academies,
wrote
letters
to
the
Senate
President,
the
Speaker
of
the
House,
the
chairman
of
that
appropriations
in
the
house,
the
chairman
of
that
appropriations
in
the
Senate
to
Governor
Scott
to
their
appropriation
staff
and
together
all
of
us
pulling
the
wagon
in
the
same
direction.
We
were
able
to
achieve
1
million
dollars
that
will
be
coming
to
Clay
County
to
upgrade
our
academies.
B
As
you
know,
we've
gone
from
16
to
30
academies
with
our
wall-to-wall
Kadim
ease
of
clay
initiative.
So
that'll
do
things
on
our
facilities
list
like
make
the
culinary
arts
academy
at
Middleburg
high
school
by
the
commercial
kitchen
equipment.
Do
those
things
and
that'll
go
across
the
gamut
it'll
help
us.
Each
year
we
establish
a
project
list
of
projects
that
require
capital
outlay.
Another
one
of
those
categorical
funding
items
like
mr.
B
Cofield
was
just
talking
about
and
we
worked
down
our
list
till
we
run
out
of
money
for
that
year
and
then
that's
where
we
have
to
stop
so
this
will.
Let
us
get
a
million
more
dollars.
If
you
will
down
that
list,
so
that
was
certainly
something
to
celebrate.
Last
year,
when
we
came
out
of
the
2015
legislative
session,
us
and
five
other
counties
with
large
land
masses
connected
to
federal
military
installations
were
given
non
reoccurring.
B
Funding
to
us,
it
equated
to
a
little
over
a
half
a
million
dollars
for
Camp
Blanding,
which
does
not
fall
under
our
normal
ad
valorem
tax
revenue.
So
through
education
appropriations
they
carved
out
some
money
to
help
equalize
us
for
that
amount
of
Clay
County
that
isn't
taxed
on
the
property
tax
rolls
so
again,
with
the
help
of
a
whole
lot
of
people,
we
were
able
to
turn
that
from
non-recurring
funding
to
reoccurring
funding,
so
we
won't
have
to
go
up
there
and
fight
hard
and
advocate
hard
for
that.
B
Unless
something
really
unravels,
we
will
continue
to
get
that
so
both
of
those
things
together
put
us
in
about
a
me
and
a
half
dollar
better
position
towards
some
capital
projects
just
next
year.
So
we're
very
thankful
for
that.
We
had
the
press
corps.
I,
don't
know!
If
these
gentlemen,
over
here
to
my
right,
were
there,
we've
got
some
great
coverage
on
television.
The
newspapers
covered
it.
B
AA
I've
had
the
pleasure
working
alongside
our
newly
formed
district
Advisory
Council
over
the
past
several
months
and
the
opportunity
to
get
to
know
some
wonderful
parents
and
community
members
who
are
very
dedicated
to
school
and
district
improvement.
So
tonight
as
one
of
their
responsibilities,
they
were
to
give
the
superintendent
and
the
board
a
quarterly
update,
so
I'd
like
to
introduce
Carol
and
free
offer.
She
is
a
parent
representing
district
1
and
she
has
volunteered
to
come
and
give
you
our
first
quarterly
update.
So
welcome.
Carol
Anne.
C
T
T
This
is
a
direct
line
of
communication
for
issues
that
you
have
with
your
school
or
concern.
So
when
you
see
those
notices
come
out,
we
hope
everybody
participates
and
starts
showing
up
and
your
voices
will
be
heard
better.
That
way.
So
at
the
January
meeting
we
did
two
things.
We
took
several
hours
to
decide
what
the
first
two
topics
would
be
and
how
often
we
would
meet.
We
figured
quarterly
at
first,
so
we'd
have
a
meeting
in
February
and
another
one
in
May
the
because
FSA
was
timely.
T
We
decided
to
get
ourselves
a
good,
quick
education
on
the
fundamentals
of
the
FSA,
so
February's
meeting
was
dedicated
to
that.
But
just
prior
to
that,
as
everybody
here
knows,
there
was
a
Assembly
of
a
community
assembly
in
the
oak
leaf
area
and
with
the
redistricting
and
proposals
and
the
ladies
from
that
district
were
very
instrumental
in
helping
the
parents
get
their
concerns
across
and
facilitating
that.
So
even
before
our
first
meeting
that
was
already
in
place
in
February.
So
then
we
had
our
first
meeting.
Dr.
T
Weiskopf
came
and
gave
an
excellent
education
to
all
of
us,
and
we
did
that
at
the
Middleburg
high
school
and
what
was
really
fantastic
about
that
I'm,
a
parent
each
each
district
of
the
five
districts
has
one
parent:
that's
a
volunteer
for
elementary
one
for
junior
in
high
school
and
one
community
leader,
and
so
we
have
three
three
volunteers
for
each
of
the
five
districts.
So
we
are
all
parents
and
we
got
to
sit
down
and
take
a
practice
test
them
on
the
computers
and
I.
M
T
Bow
down
to
the
teachers
who
administer
them
and
to
the
children
who
take
them
so
and
I
thank
superintendent,
deputy
superintendent
Kornegay
for
letting
us
have
that
fabulous
opportunity
to
better
educate
our
parents
on
how
this
is
happening.
How
and
why
and
and
all
that
we
were
so
impressed
with
what
we
learned
and
wanted
to
share
it,
that
we
set
up
a
district-wide
meeting
following
that,
and
that
happened
in
March,
and
that
happened
here,
because
we
didn't
know
how
many
people
we
would
get
we'd
like
to
do
it
in
the
future
earlier.
T
But
since
we
just
formed
in
January,
that
was
a
quick
move
and
to
get
the
ball
rolling,
and
so
we
had
a
nice
showing
and
we
threw
it
out.
District-Wide
it
started
in
district
1
and
dr.
Weiskopf
came
to
that
superintendent
or
Debbie
superintendent,
Kornegay
and
I
was
thrilled.
I
have
to
say
this
from
Fleming
Island
elementary
school,
the
principal
Dana
Archibald
came,
the
vice-principal
came,
miss
marks
and
one
of
the
teachers
gave
up
her
time
to
come
that
evening.
Miss
Larson
and
what
was
wonderful
about
that
is
the
people
who
came
from
that
school.
T
T
And
it's
really
just
to
open
these
lines
of
communications
and
to
see
all
them
answering
questions
for
quite
a
long
time
after
the
meeting
as
you
can
imagine,
it
was
a
fantastic
opportunity,
so
the
people
who
were
here
were
able
to
voice
their
concerns
and
just
to
relate
them
to
the
board.
As
far
as
assessment
is
concerned,
the
probably
the
major
one
was
the
length
of
testing.
T
And
there
were
also
some
that
wanted
to
know
what
would
happen
specifically
to
their
child
if
they
opted
it
out
or
opted
it
out,
and
we
also
had
parents
here
who
were
new
to
the
state
of
Florida,
and
we
had
some
parents
which
were
great,
that
their
child
will
not
take
the
tested
next
year,
but
they
were
interested
parents
and
they
wanted
to
hit
the
ground
running.
So
so
that
was
I.
Think
a
great
start,
following
that.
T
We
have
our
second
meeting
on
May
4th
and
that
one
has
turned
into
really
what's
going
to
be
another
sort
of
workshop
and
dr.
legato
is
going
to
be
there
to
speak
to
our
second
issue,
which
was
school
and
district
budgeting
and
getting
the
parents
involved
in
how
the
budgeting
is
is
being
proposed
and
also
to
get
them
to
perhaps
have
greater
involvement
in
setting
the
the
process
and
its
strategic
plan
for
the
next
school
year.
2016-2017
and
since
that
had
been
set.
Not
only
is
dr.
T
legato
gonna
be
here,
and
this
meeting
is
on
May
4th
in
this
room
at
6:30,
but
also
dr.
Hamilton
is
coming
down
from
Panama
City,
and
so
parents
have
a
wonderful
opportunity
to
speak
with
the
people
who
can
best
educate
us
on
how
the
decisions
are
made
on
budgeting.
And
why
and
if
they
have
concerns
or
or
input
that
could
really
be
useful
and
enlightening.
Then
we're
encouraging
everybody
to
come
to
that.
It's
a
it's
open
to
all
and
mrs.
T
N
C
N
Have
a
question
for
mr.
Kornegay:
it
sounds
like
they're
doing
a
great
job
and
they're
covering
a
lot
of
important
information.
Is
it
possible
when
they
have
their
meetings,
that
they
could
be
videotaped
and
archived
on
our
website?
Just
like
our
school
board
meetings
are
so
that
parents
who
don't
have
the
opportunity
to
attend
would
still
be
able
to
watch
and
learn
and
listen
that.
AA
N
B
Know
I
would
just
offer
this
stock.
We
ask
people
to
sign
up
for
that.
Not
everybody
really
wants
to
be
on
TV,
so
you
know
a
lot
of
our
teachers.
We
ask
when
they're
doing
great
lessons.
Hey.
Can
we
video
this
and
show
it
to
your
colleagues
and
they're
on
the
payroll
and
don't
even
want
to
do
it
so
I'm
just
saying
we're
going
to
need
to
survey
the
district
Advisory
Committee
and
see
if
they
really
want
to
do
that?
Well,.
C
M
P
C
C
C
C
The
next
item
up
was
items
c-32.
This
was
pulled
from
the
discussion
are
pulled
from
consent
agenda
and
this
is
c-32
approved
agreement
with
Wilson
Education
Center,
and
this
was
pulled
by
mascara
cos.
Mascara
kiss
well,
first
I'll
entertain
a
motion
and
then
we'll
bring
it
for
discussion.
Okay,
we
have
a
motion
for
approval
by
mascara
kiss
second
and
a
second
by
Miss
Gil
Heusen,
okay,
miss
Kara,
kiss
I.
N
Pulled
this
because
I
got
a
couple
of
phone
calls
about
it,
people
were
concerned
and
I
called
dr.
legato,
and
we
had
a
conversation
about
it
and
after
talking
to
her,
she
put
you
know
all
the
questions.
She'd
answered
all
my
questions
and
I
thought.
You
know
this
is
a
really
a
very
positive
thing,
that's
happening
and
it
might
be
good
to
just
explain
it
to
our
staff
and
community
what
the
Wilson
Education
Center
is
going
to
do
for
us
and
dr.
lococo
said
she'd
be
happy
to
do
that.
P
Evening
have
a
little
some
notes
here.
The
agreement
with
the
Wilson
Education
Center
is
a
partnership
with
the
district
school
board,
Clay
County,
School
Board,
and
it
will
allow
the
district
the
opportunity
to
increase
or
and
expand
our
buying
power
based
on
reduced
prices
and
material
for
materials
and
supplies
for
the
district.
P
The
last
couple
of
weeks
have
had
some
meetings
with,
of
course,
the
principals
and
staff,
and
one
of
the
things
that
I
did
mention
is
that
I'm
trying
well
that
we
are
trying
to
minimize
the
cost
of
some
of
our
operations
under
business
affairs.
One
of
those
operation
is
our
warehouse
supply
warehouse.
Please
understand
that.
That
does
not
mean
folks
are
losing
their
positions
or
anything.
It
is
a
slow
closing
down
of
the
supplies
that
we
do
have
in
our
warehouse.
There
are
items
in
there
that
are
over.
P
What
it
does,
of
course,
it
allows
us
the
opportunity
for
buying
power
for
those
supplies
through
a
bid
process.
These
bids
will
be
under
the
Clay
County
School
Board.
It
will
give
us
the
opportunity
to
look
for
reduced
prices
for
the
various
supplies
that
we
do
use
on
a
regular
basis
annually
to
operate
our
schools,
what
it
also
does
for
us.
It
allows
other
districts
in
the
state
of
Florida
to
piggyback
off
of
those
bids.
That's
under
Clay
County
once
they
once
the
other
districts
purchase
materials
from
that
bid,
that's
placed
out
under
Clay
County.
P
The
district
stands
to
learn
to
earn
additional
revenue.
So
it's
a
revenue
stream
for
our
district
and,
as
you
know,
we
are
looking
at
all
areas
to
save
dollars
bring
in
revenue
if
we
can
and
be
fiscally
sound
for
all
of
our
operations
with
that.
I
wanted
to
also
add
that
there
is
no
cost
to
the
district
and
there's
minimal
impact
to
the
staff
in
our
purchasing
department.
Of
course,
we
have
the
authority
on
everything
that
is
posted
under
the
school
district.
P
The
contract
term,
of
course,
is
for
two
years
and
we
do
have
an
out
out
core
if
we
need
to
exercise
that
the
contract
language
also
allows
us
for
if,
for
any
reason,
why
we're
looking
for
materials
and
supplies-
and
there
are
other
materials
and
supplies
that
are
a
lot
cheaper
or
less
expensive
than
our
own
bids.
We
have
the
opportunity
to
actually
go
out
and
exercise
piggyback
off
of
another
bid,
so
we
do
have
that
clause
in
our
contract
as
well.
N
Thank
you
very
much.
I
was
impressed
when
dr.
lococo
explains
to
me.
I
just
want
to
commend
her
and
mr.
Warburg
for
coming.
You
know
looking
for
this
and
finding
it
and
looking
for
different
ways
to
to
save
you
know,
cut
costs
but
also
increase
revenue,
and
so
hopefully
this
will
be
a
win-win
for
us,
and
you
know,
and
I
like
I,
was
pleased
to
hear
that
nobody
was
losing
their
job.
That
was
the
the
very
first
question
that
was
posed
to
me
and,
and
so
I
said,
I'll
call
so
I.
N
C
M
C
Okay,
all
right
the
next
items
up.
We
actually
have
one
two,
three,
four
five:
we
have
six
items
up
that
are
all
public
hearings
to
approve
as
advertised
the
attendance
boundaries
for
the
six
different
schools
that
we
had
listed.
So
what
I
would
like
to
do
in
the
interest
of
saving
time?
These
are
all
public
hearings,
I'm
going
to
open
one
public
hearing
and
then
I
will
allow
anybody
who
would
like
to
speak
will
at
each
particular
each
particular
issue
here
we'll
go
through
them.
C
You
know
one
at
a
time
and
then
I
will
close
the
overall
public
hearing
and
then
we'll
bring
them
back
to
the
board
and
we
will
vote
them
vote
on
them
individually.
Okay,
so
I'm
going
to
read
them
their
items
d4
through
d9,
and
it's
the
public
hearing
to
approve
as
advertised
the
attendance
boundary
for
Plantation,
Oaks,
Elementary
and
oak
leaf
village,
Elementary
School.
The
second.
C
I
was
just
going
to
read
them
first,
they
knew
what
we
were.
What
we
were
going
going
through.
The
second
one
is
the
public
hearing
to
approve,
as
advertised
reclassify
Argyle
elementary
school
from
a
pre-k
to
a
fifth
grade
to
a
pre-k
to
sixth
grade
the
next
one
was
the
attendance
boundaries
for
right
out
elementary
doctors,
inlet
Elementary,
Patterson,
elementary
Charles
E
Bennet
Elementary
in
Lake
Asbury
elementary,
the
next
one
was
attendance,
boundaries
for
plantation
Oaks,
Elementary
and
Tynes
elementary.
C
The
next
one
was
attendance,
boundary
for
Green,
Cove,
Springs,
junior
high
Wilkinson
junior
high
and
Lake
Asbury
junior
high
and
then
finally,
last
but
not
least,
the
attendance
boundaries
for
Clay
high
and
Middleburg
high
schools.
Okay,
so
those
are
all
the
ones
that
are
all
up
for
public
hearings.
So
at
this
time,
I'm
going
to
open
the
public
hearing
and
I'm
going
to
allow
anybody
that
would
like
to
come
and
speak
to
the
board
on
these
we'll
start
with
the
first
one,
which
was
Plantation
Oaks
Elementary
and
Oakley
Village
Elementary
Miss.
AC
Paiva
good
evening,
my
question
actually
is
for
all
of
them.
It's
under
like
I'm
curious
on,
what's
going
to
happen
with
the
new
statute
that
allows
children
students
to
go
from
school
to
school
as
long
as
this
space
and
the
schools
are
deemed
open
and
I
was
wondering
what
this
board
has
thought
about
doing,
especially
because
you
can
see
a
mass
movement
of
athletes,
you
can
see
a
mass
movement
of
Korus
people.
You
can
see
a
mass
movement
of
any
of
our
special
interests
who
believe
that
it's
better
another
one
school
over
another.
AC
So
I
wanted
to
know
what
the
thought
is
on
that
when
we're
talking
about
redistricting
and
rezoning
and
I
also
wanted
to
I,
have
a
question,
probably
for
mr.
Kornegay
or
mr.
Morrow
I'm,
not
sure
if
a
school
is
deemed
close.
Are
they
therefore
closed
or
anybody?
Even
people
who
move
in
that
district
or
they
are?
They
only
closed
for
people
coming
from
another
area
of
that
district,
but
it's
kind
of
a
rhetorical
question,
because
there
won't
be
districts
under
the
new
statute
really
that
if
they
allow
free
movement
anyway,
what
thought
has
been
given?
AC
C
B
Go
again,
I'd
like
to
keep
the
public
hearing
the
rezoning
in
the
1617
school
year
that
were
in
that
law
that
was
just
mentioned
begins
in
1718,
us
and
other
districts.
It
was
just
signed
by
the
governor
last
Friday.
We'll
have
to
do
some
planning.
The
definitions
haven't
really
been
solidified
on
open
and
closed.
We'll
have
to
look
at
capacity.
Issues
come
up
with
our
own
way
to
do
it
I'm
sure
each
district
will
have
some
similarities
and
some
differences
in
the
way
that
they
will
do
it.
And,
yes,
everybody
is
thinking
about
it.
C
C
S
C
C
F
You
all
keep
nickels
and,
of
course,
my
addresses
on
the
record.
You
all
probably
know
where
this
is
going
because
I've
said
this
probably
about
30
times
in
the
last
two
years,
when
you're
doing
the
redistricting
so
for
Charles,
II,
Bennett
I
still
don't
see
any
place
where
shadow
land
is
being
addressed
in
this,
and
we've
got
the
kids
that
are
over
there
in
penny
farms.
That
would
be
a
natural
fit
to
go
in
there
and
I'm.
Just
wondering
why
Shadow
Line
is
still
hands-off.
C
C
Okay,
I
am
going
to
close
the
public
hearing
at
this
time
and
I'm
going
to
bring
these
back
to
the
board
one
at
a
time
for
vote
and
approval.
The
first
item
is
D
for
the
public
hearing
to
approve
as
advertised
the
attendance
boundaries
for
Plantation,
Oaks,
Elementary
and
Oakley
Village
elementary

I'll
entertain
a

I'll.

The
next
item
up
is
presentations
from
the
audience.
We
do
have
several
cards
here
and
so
we'll
begin.
M
G
M
Came
to
speak
to
you
about
an
article
that
I
saw
in
a
clay
leader.
It
was
just
published
last
April
15th
just
this
week.
The
task
or
working
group
that
was
referred
to
in
there
met
during
the
week
of
March
22nd,
even
when
asked
by
another
board
member
who
these
people
were.
There
was
no
revelation:
15
quote
undisclosed,
district
leaders
or
administrators
included
no
school
principals,
and
that
was
according
to
the
article
I
have
no
idea,
if
that's
true
or
not
I,
doubt
that
miss
Carnegie
had
in
mind
any
teachers
for
membership
in
the
sunshine.
M
M
M
Next,
of
course,
we
have
lost
blackboard
and
we're
losing
a
relieving
Microsoft.
Very
soon
to
get
over
to
Google
and
this
huge
saving
is
hopefully
going
to
include
some
official
involvement
of
plagiarism
checking
because
we
lost
that
with
blackboard.
So,
if
you
would,
please
consider
that
I
would
appreciate
it
if
you
ever
need
any
other
suggestions.
Just
let
me
know
thank
you.
I.
B
Didn't
see
the
article
in
the
media,
but
I
can
tell
you
this
I
do
know
I
out
of
everything.
You
just
said.
Mr.
Hamilton
services
provided
through
the
Florida
Association
of
school
superintendents
and
Florida
School
Boards
Association.
He
doesn't
take
any
money
for
any
of
that,
except
for
whatever
those
associations
pay
him
miss
stuttered
school
board,
participation
predates
mine,
but
I
I
know
in
the
18
years,
I've
been
on
one
or
the
other.
We've
always
belonged
to
both
that
I.
Don't
so
that's
nothing
extra!
AD
Okay,
Thank
You,
Liz
crane.
You
have
my
address
for
the
record
jab
jab
jab
right
hook.
Good
evening
this
month,
one
of
my
students
had
some
successes.
This
young
boy
Ricardo
entered
my
classroom,
shy,
scared
and
unsure
of
himself.
He
still
is
shy
and
from
time
to
time,
unsure
of
himself
Ricardo
is
young.
As
far
as
kindergartners
go
and
immature,
he
did
not
come
in
knowing
all
of
his
letter
sounds
and
numbers
when
other
children
were
practicing
their
counting
in
class.
AD
He
played
with
his
shoes
when
other
children
were
practicing
their
reading,
he
would
make
telescopes
out
of
his
books.
It
is
known
in
kindergarten
that
Santa
sometimes
brings
more
than
toys
and
treats
to
young
children's
homes.
He
sometimes
brings
the
gift
of
maturity.
Ricardo
was
fortunate
to
receive
this
gift
a
March.
He
began
to
show
an
interest
in
reading
by
instead
of
paper
telescopes
and
began
counting
with
his
classmates.
By
this
time,
I
had
five
students
reading
a
our
books
and
some
of
the
children
were
noticing,
including
Ricardo
I,
asked
him
one
day.
AD
Would
you
like
to
make
a
goal
to
read
an
AR
book
this
year?
He
replied.
Yes,
I
explained
him,
we
would
have
to
work
very
hard
and
he
couldn't
spend
his
time
playing
around
and
talking
I
told
him
that
I
would
work
with
him
to
get
him
there
as
long
as
he
did
the
work
he
said.
Okay,
alright,
then,
let's
get
started.
The
hard
work
was
beginning
to
pay
off
in
math.
AD
He
continued
to
practice,
and
this
week
he
mastered
counting
to
100
by
ones
twos,
5s
and
10's,
and
he
was
able
to
write
his
name
on
the
poster
to
indicate
this
with
his
classmates
I
am
looking
forward
to
when
he
reads
his
first
AR
book
and
taking
his
a
our
quiz.
He
has
a
long
way
to
go,
but
I'm
confident
he
will
get
there
earlier
this
week.
AD
I
was
very
dismayed
when
I
received
an
email
that
said
and
I
quote
once
this
matter
is
resolved,
we
can
return
our
focus
and
efforts
to
where
they
matter
most
building
on
our
recent
accomplishments
as
an
a-rated,
district,
etc,
etc.
Excuse
me
we
can
return
our
focus
and
efforts
I'm.
Sorry.
When
do
we
lose
our
focus
and
effort
if
I
was
not
focused,
this
child
would
not
be
making
the
gains
he's
making
if
I
did
not
give
full
effort.
I
would
not
have
six
students
all
on
accelerator
reader.
AD
One
student
has
read
over
20,000
words:
I
will
have
eight
students
on
a
or
next
week
if
I
was
not
focused,
I
would
not
have
almost
every
student's
name
on
the
counting
poster.
How
dare
anyone
apply
that
I
lost
my
focus
or
effort
due
to
the
district
union
negotiations?
How
dare
anyone
imply
that
any
teacher
in
this
county
lost
their
focus?
Our
teachers
are
hardworking
and
extremely
generous.
No
one
should
state
that
we
need
to
return
our
focus
and
efforts.
We
never
lost
our
focus
and
efforts
understand
this.
AD
The
educators
of
this
county
are
the
backbone
of
this
district.
Without
us,
we
would
not
be
in
a
district.
Without
us,
we
would
not
be
winning
Jim
Harvin
Awards.
Without
us,
we
would
not
be
the
only
district
in
the
state
with
wall-to-wall
academies.
We
should
not
be
treated
like
children
in
told
to.
We
need
to
return
our
focus
and
efforts
to
what
matters
most.
We
should
be
appreciated
because
we
never
lost
our
focus.
Nor
did
we
lessen
our
efforts.
AE
I'd
like
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
history,
Christopher
Columbus
said
I
had
dialogue,
feelings
and
conversations
with
learning
people,
clergyman,
laymen,
Latins
and
Greeks,
Jews
and
Moors,
and
with
many
other
sects
he
continues.
I
found
our
Lord
very
well
disposed
with
this
my
desire,
and
he
gave
me
the
spirit
for
it.
His
quest
was
to
find
new
lands.
AE
Columbus
goes
on
to
say
he
prepared
me
in
seamanship
and
supplied
me
with
the
necessary
tools
in
astronomy,
as
well
as
geometry
and
arithmetic,
and
the
ingenuity
of
manual
skill
to
draw
spherical
maps
which
shows
cities,
rivers
and
mountains,
islands
and
ports.
Everything
in
its
proper
place,
Columbus
also
asserts
the
directing
hand
of
God,
through
the
publication
of
his
book
of
prophecies
some
10
years
later
in
his
quest
to
find
new
lands.
He
researched
the
Holy
Scriptures
and
anything
else
he
could
get
his
hands
on.
He
goes
on
to
say
the
scientists
were
no
help.
AE
It
was
during
this
period
that
the
scientists
believed
that
the
earth
was
flat
Genesis.
One
theory
says
that
the
earth
was
formless,
Genesis
1:16
says
God
made
two
lights:
the
greater
to
have
dominion
over
day.
The
lesser
to
have
dominion
over
night
Columbus
saw
the
same
thing
we
see
when
we
look
up
to
big
round
balls
formulas.
AE
AE
If
the
world
was
flat?
Columbus
studies
of
seamanship?
He
learned
that
the
moon
affected
the
tides
and
winds.
He
was
laughed
and
scoffed
at
the
statement
of
Columbus.
Winds
was
fantastic
when
he
said,
I
attest
that
he,
the
Holy
Spirit,
was
marvelous
rays
of
light.
Consoled
me
through
the
holy
and
sacred
scriptures
and
strong
and
dear
testimony.
He
continues.
Our
Lord
wanted
to
perform
the
clearest
work
of
Providence
in
this
matter.
Columbus
further
stated.
AE
Yet
the
outcome
was
to
be
the
fulfillment
of
whatever
Redeemer
Jesus
Christ
said
through
the
mouths
of
the
prophets,
and
so
the
prophecy
has
been
made
manifest
in
closing
I
will
say
it
is
in
sight
scientifically
impossible
for
anyone
to
say
that
they
are
atheists,
because
there
is
no
God
first
in
order
to
say
that
factually
they
would
have
to
have
all
knowledge.
Only
God
has
all
knowledge
and
he
wrote
this
book,
not
dr.
Seuss.
We
are
a
Christian
nation
and
we
will
better
start
acting
like
it.
Thank
you
one
more
thing.
AE
AC
AC
I
don't
want
us
to
see
us
sitting
here
and
I
have
a
feeling
I
might
be
sitting
here
next
spring
reactionary
to,
especially
when
you
look
at
the
rezoning
of
OBE
and
and
po
I'm,
not
sure
you
know
that
we're
going
to
get
an
influx
there,
big
time
and
I'd
like
to
see
us
at
least
maybe
come
up
with
some
new
ideas
like
having
a
collaborative
team
effort
and
maybe
looking
at
this
stuff.
So
that
was
the
reason.
I
said
it
not
to
you
know
it
gets.
You
know
told
that.
AC
Well,
that's
not
for
another
year,
we'll
wait
till
then.
My
second
thing
is
being
up
in
the
subject
of
media
lately
and
so
I'm
really
curious
in
productions
and
how
productions
happen,
especially
making
films
and
making
videos
and
posting
them.
So
I
was
curious
to
see
on
our
one
clay
Facebook
account
that
we
have
some
productions
going
up
and
every
time
a
production
goes
up,
I
always
watch
it
all
the
way
to
the
end,
because
I'm
curious
on
who's,
producing
it
and
and
why
and
I
see
at
the
end
of
our
productions,
the
productions
say.
AC
Van
Kley
production
and
I
would
like
to
know
what
van
Kley
conduction
is
like,
who
is
van
Kley
productions?
That's
producing
our
videos
that
we're
posting
on
Facebook
and
also
on
our
website,
so
I'd
like
some
insight
in
that
I'm,
just
curious
on
who
the
genius
is
that's
doing
this.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Miss
Paiva,
Laura.
B
AA
Can
actually
answer
that
question
for
you
that
was
produced
in
our
instructional
materials
department
by
the
young
lady
that
works
over
there
in
Kathy
Scofield's
department,
that
does
some
of
our
media
productions
and
her
last
name
is
van
van
Giessen
and
guests
him,
okay,
so
that
was
her
production
and
that's
thus
the
just
coincidental
that
it
is
a
no
relation
to
you
know
she's,
one
of
our
hard-working
folks
over
in
that
department
who
does
a
lot
of
videos
and
some
of
our
communications.
Thank
you
for.

AF
Ahead,
miss
Mayberry,
Laura,
Mayberry,
Clay,
County
teacher.
My
address
is
on
file
a
couple
of
days
ago,
I
put
together
a
master
calendar
of
all
the
state
and
county
mandated
tests
that
are
scheduled
for
my
school
this
year
and
I
provided
copies
for
each
of
the
school
board
members
out
of
180
school
days.
My
high
school
has
at
least
one
standardized
test
being
given
on
114
of
those
days
114
days,
and
it
makes
me
sick
and,
more
importantly,
it's
stealing.
Whatever
love
of
learning.
AF
Our
kids
have
left
and
I
use
the
word
stealing
intentionally,
because
high-stakes
testing
is
nothing
but
theft.
It
is
robbing
me
of
time
with
my
students.
It
is
robbing
taxpayers
of
money
that
could
be
better
spent
somewhere
else,
and
it
is
robbing
my
students
of
their
confidence
and
their
ability
to
experience
real
learning
and
success.
AF
A
few
months
ago,
one
of
my
seniors
came
into
class
very
upset,
and
this
was
a
new
experience
for
me
because,
usually
that's
how
they
leave,
but
she
she
told
me
that
she
had
just
failed
a
state
test
retake
by
one
point,
and
she
was
scared
that
she
couldn't
graduate
and
this
very
sweet
student
next
to
her
said.
Don't
worry,
you
can
still
get
a
certificate
of
completion
and
walk
with
us,
and
the
first
student
slammed
her
fists
on
the
table
and
she
said
I
don't
want
a
stupid
certificate
of
completion.
AF
AF
After
that.
We
are
professionals
and
we
do
not
need
a
hundred
and
fourteen
days
of
testing
to
know
our
students.
We
are
sacrificing
them
on
the
altar
of
the
almighty
data,
and
this
is
abuse
and
the
very
people
that
these
kids
are
supposed
to
trust
are
the
perpetrators,
so
I
challenge
the
school
board.
What
are
you
doing
to
stop
it?
Thank
you.
Thank.
Z
Michelle
Roberts
and

Who
am
I.
That
was
the
title
of
the
sermon
given
by
my
pastor
this
past
Sunday
morning,
and
it
started
me
thinking.
I
am
a
dedicated
ESA
teacher
who
loves
and
enjoys
going
to
work
every
single
day.
I
am
a
teacher
that
devotes
countless
hours
to
designing
engaging
lessons
for
my
children
so
that
each
of
their
needs
are
met.
Z
I
am
a
teacher
that,
despite
the
lack
of
respect
shown
by
this
board,
will
continue
to
work
hard
for
the
children
that
I
teach
so
that
they
can
have
their
dreams
come
true.
I
am
a
national
board.
Certified
teacher
I
am
a
military
child
whose
father
served
22
years
in
the
United
States
Navy
I
am
a
product
at
the
Clay
County
School
District,
who
went
on
to
receive
my
educational
degree
from
a
Southern
Baptist
College
in
Mississippi
and
I
am
an
active
member
of
my
church
and
I.
Z
Have
a
deep
personal
relationship
with
Jesus
Christ
I
am
also
a
part
of
my
professional
organization,
the
Clay
County
Education
Association,
and
not
only
am
I
a
part
of
it.
I
am
on
the
board
of
the
directors
and
I
am
on
the
bargaining
team
and
very
proud
of
it.
I
am
concerned
and
outraged
about
the
comments
that
are
being
made
on
Facebook
now,
I'm,
not
one
that
generally
poster
looks
on
Facebook
on
a
regular
basis
unless
it's
football
season
and
I'm
congratulating
my
Crimson
Tide
on
yet
a
no.
Z
Z
Many
comments
have
been
made
about
these
members
and
I
want
to
comment
on
two
of
them,
one
being
that
they
are
domestic
terrorists.
As
someone
who
had
friends
in
those
twin
towers
when
they
came
down
on
September
11th
and
someone
who
sat
with
a
colleague
who
waited
to
hear
from
her
sister
who
worked
in
the
Pentagon
on
September
11th
I
am
deeply
deeply
offended
by
that.
Z
As
someone
who
has
friends
who
have
recently
deployed
and
a
father
who
served
his
country
I
continue
to
be
offended
to
use
those
particular
words
or
to
strike
fear
in
people
and
teachers
are
not
to
be
feared.
We
are
your
teachers.
Why
would
you
use
words
that
would
cause
people
to
fear
your
teachers?
Z
Another
comment,
true
Christians,
wouldn't
be
part
of
the
Union.
Well,
I'm,
not
sure
what
to
say
other
than
that
is
a
ludicrous
statement.
I
have
a
very
strong
faith
that
continues
to
grow
on
a
daily
basis
and
for
someone
to
call
that
into
question,
because
I
belong
to
my
professional
organization
and
stand
up
for
the
teachers
of
this
district
is
appalling,
especially
when
they
don't
even
know
me.
Z
Z
Nothing
displays
the
ability
of
teachers
to
collaborate,
work
together
and
show
compassion
to
each
other.
Then
this
past
week
at
my
school
we've
lost
one
of
our
school
family
members
has
lost
a
member
of
her
family
and
I'm
gonna,
try
not
to
get
emotional,
but
the
call
was
put
out
to
other
schools
for
help
and
coverage
so
that
we
could
be
with
that
school
member
of
our
family
tomorrow,
as
she
blazed
to
rest
her
loved
one
within
hours
minutes.
Z
Actually,
there
were
teachers
and
administrators
who
collaborated
together
and
came
up
with
ways
that
they
could
send
coverage
to
our
school,
that
we
are
fully
covered
and
still
have
more
should
we
need
it.
That
is
a
true
true
vision,
a
collaboration
and
working
together
and
that's
what
we
need
to
strive
for
on
a
daily
basis.
So
why
the
need
for
hurtful
and
divisive
comets
that
continue
to
tear
us
apart
shouldn't
we
be
focusing
on
how
to
work
together,
enhance
the
quality
education
that
Clay
County
offers.
Thank
you
thank.
G
B
Wow,
it's
only
925
excellent.
Thank
you
all
for
coming
tonight.
I
learned
things.
Every
time
we
come
to
school
board
meetings,
we've
got
a
lot
to
celebrate
as
we
bring
the
1617
school
year
to
an
end.
We
were
able
to
do
a
lot
of
recognition
tonight,
we'll
have
even
more
in
May
and
I
wish
you
all
good
evening.
God
bless
you.
S
The
administrators
and
teachers
who
were
there
and
the
Academy
people
were
recognized
also
the
speaker
who
talked
olorum
it
Mayberry
about
the
standardized
tests,
the
114
days
out
of
180,
that's
appalling.
You
know,
I
agree
with
you
completely.
We
need
to
figure
out
something
folks,
that's
too
much
on
our
kids
and
it's
too
much
on
you
to
use
teachers
too,
and
the
administrators
we
that's
awful
I
mean
that
didn't
give
you
any
time
to
teach
where's
the
creativity
coming
in
anymore
I.
Just
it's
sickening.
S
O
I
guess
the
only
thing
that
I'd
like
to
highlight
is
that
one
of
the
highlights
of
my
past
few
weeks
of
all
the
events
we
get
to
go
to
was
the
ROTC
inspection
passed
in
at
passing,
review
at
Ridge,
View,
High,
School,
and
just
because
it
worked
in
his
schedule.
Congressman
Yoho
was
able
to
come
for
that
and
it
was
a
really
really
special
time.
O
They
all
are
I've
really
enjoyed
the
the
ones
that
I've
gone
to
have
gone
to
Keystone
high
school
clay,
high
school
and
now
Ridge,
View
and
I
really
enjoy
those,
and
those
students
have
done
an
outstanding
job
and
congressman
Yoho,
highlighted
I
think
there
are
four
or
five
of
our
graduates
that
are
going
to
various
military
academies,
and
that
was
just
really
outstanding
to
hear
so
that's
all
highlight
tonight,
but
it's
a
great
experience.
Thank.
N
N
They
were
the
brightest
of
the
bright,
and
it's
always
a
pleasure
I've
done
that
for
about
eight
years
now,
it's
real
exciting
when
you
see
our
students
just
excelling
and
being
recognized
for
it
so
glad
to
be
a
part
of
that
today
and
I
am
glad
that
we've
settled
both
of
these
contracts
and,
like
mrs.
stuttered,
said
it's,
it's
a
bit
embarrassing
and
I
just
hope
that
our
bargaining
session
next
year
is
a
lot
more
positive.
So
I
just
wish
everybody
a
good
night.

Requesting
the
board
to
convene
an
executive
meeting,
I'm
asked
to
do
it
next,
Thursday
at
five
o'clock
at
the
the
Accounts
Payable
conference,
room
and
I
have
to
discuss
two
cases.
I'm
asking
this
pursuant
to
to
86.0
1-1
subparagraph
8,
one
of
the
cases
is
MN
versus
CCS
B.
It's
a
federal
lawsuit,
we're
being
represented
