So
every
year
we
conduct
a
senior
exit
surveys
and
that's
an
annual
report
that
we
provide
to
our
Board
of
Education.
Our
principals
take
a
rotation
and
they
come
present
every
year,
so
I
will
hand
it
over
to
mr.
Dahlin
and
and
I
see
dr.
Burch
and
mr.
Cody
are
in
the
back
as
well
so
I'll
hand
it
over
to
mr.
Nolan.
Oh
thank.
G
You
they've
told
me
earlier
that
they
would
flank
me
on
each
side,
so
I
don't
see
them,
which
is
typical,
but
they
also
consider
themselves
I
can't
oh
here
they
come
cool,
appreciate
that
you
know
that
each
year
that
we
see
our
a
our
seniors
and
we're
gathering
this
information
at
the
end
of
the
school
year.
Yes,
Woodrow
also
does
a
senior
exit
survey
and
I
think
at
another
time,
you'll
hear
the
results
of
that
this
evening.
G
I
know
you've
got
a
very
full
agenda,
so
we've
kept
it
brief,
but
we're
surely
willing
to
entertain
any
questions
that
you
might
have
I.
Think
the
first
slide
that's
on
the
screen.
There
is
what
our
seniors
graduation
plans
and
I
did
a
three
year.
History
of
the
results
by
the
way
I
started
this
project
this
morning
and
so
you'll
see
the
data
there.
It's
good
data,
it's
not
made
up
and
about
70%
of
our
students
over
the
last
three
years,
are
going
and
plans
to
go
off
to
college.
G
Another
two
two-year
voltec
option
is
about
16%
and
then
a
few
going
to
the
military
and
then,
of
course,
some
to
work
in
and
others
any
questions
on.
Graduation
plans
pretty
consistent.
If
you
plan
on
going
to
college,
where
will
you
be
going?
Fifty-Six
percent
of
our
kids
are
planning
to
go
to
schools
in
North,
Dakota
in
state
and
another
forty
three
point:
eight
five
percent
we're
going
out
of
state
and
you've
seen
some
changes,
but
I
don't
know
if
that
would
be
significant
from
2017
18
or
from
2016-17.
G
Well
looks
like
I
got
an
error.
1617
is
the
last
column
header
there
again
a
percentage
of
kids.
There
I
created
a
Wordle,
that's
where,
when
we
survey
students
they
identify
where
they're
going
to
school,
and
so
the
larger
or
the
more
frequent
the
response,
the
larger
the
font
is
for
that
institution.
So
NDSU
is
where
most
many
of
our
kids
will
go.
Second
is
und
and
last
year
NDSCS
was
our
third
option,
which
to
me
was
a
little
bit
surprising.
G
M
state
and
MSU
were
about
tied
and
then
of
course,
we
have
some
kids
go
to
Concordia
and
then
Valley
City
State
as
well,
but
again
that's
a
fairly
significant
trend
with
regards
to
more
of
our
kids
staying
in
in
town
and
also
going
to
und
I.
Think
part
of
that
is
that
Division
one
status
I
think
over
the
time
when
the
colleges
went
to
Division
one
more
of
our
kids
are
staying
in
the
state
than
previously
again.
This
is
reflective
of
just
last
year's
data.
G
The
other
option
was
in
Minnesota,
but
out
of
the
area,
ten
percent
and
I
think
that's
why
the
21
percent,
or
than
what's
in
green.
There
is
other
because
I'm
sure
that
some
kids
are
going
to
work
in
Moorhead,
but
it
said
in
the
survey
in
Minnesota
out
of
the
area,
so
I
think
you'd
have
to
interpret
that
there's
somewhere
further
away
than
just
Moorhead.
But
again
most
of
our
kids
would
be
staying
local.
G
Another
thing
that
I
captured
there
was
students
feeling
safe
at
school
and
again
we
have
four
possible
answers.
They're
a
strongly
agree,
agree
or
disagree,
and
so
you
can
see
79
percent
of
our
kids
strongly
agree
or
agree
that
they
feel
safe
at
school.
Some
disagree
and
maybe
some
slight
trend
there
with
regards
to
a
decrease
in
feeling
safe,
I,
think
you
can
see
that
nationally
as
well.
Of
course,
just
last
week
we
had
that
threat
at
North,
High
School,
where
somebody
had
scribbled
on
a
art
desk.
G
You
know,
and
so
again,
when
those
things
happen,
I
think
kids
have
some
apprehensions
about
coming
to
school.
Again
this
is
results
of
just
seniors,
so
over
four
years
did
they
ever
feel
anxious
about
coming
to
school
and
there's
some
drilled
in
data.
Where
you
know
were
the
places
where
kids
feel
less
safe.
You
know
it
would
be
in
hallways
and
in
bathrooms.
Again,
you
know
all
of
our
schools
spend
time
and
effort
with
our
staff
being
visible
in
the
in
the
hallways
and
so
forth.
G
But
again,
bathrooms
are
a
location
where
at
least
at
North
eyes
data.
It
reflects
that.
It's
not
as
not
as
safe
as
it
is
in
other
locations.
They
feel
very
safe
in
the
classroom,
but
not
as
safe
in
other
areas
that
are
less
supervised
again.
A
good
report
here
with
regards
I
feel
academically
challenged
at
this
school
and
I.
Think
you're
aware
that
both
North
and
South
had
been
a
that
nimshi
grant
for
the
last.
G
For
me,
it
was
last
three
years
and
for
Todd
he's
into
his
third
year
again
challenging
our
students
to
be
taking
more
advanced
placement
classes.
So
we
have
a
rich
curriculum
offerings
there
at
Davies
at
south
and
at
north
and
more
of
our
kids
are
taking
those
AP
classes.
I
think
Davies
traditionally
has
a
lot
of
kids
taking
it
and
we're
right
there
as
well
as
long
as
as
well
as
south,
and
again
more
of
our
kids
are
also
taking
that
AP
exam.
G
When,
before
the
nihms
ii
project,
we
really
were
averaging
between
60
and
80,
kids,
taking
the
AP
exam
and
I
think.
Last
year
we
had
280
kids
take
the
AP
exam,
so
it
was
really
has
pushed
kids
in
the
right
direction
for
taking
more
advanced
placement
classes.
We've
even
added
some
classes
in
that
AP
realm
as
well:
we've
added
ap
stats
and
ap
environmental
science
in
the
last
few
years
again.
G
G
G
All
of
our
schools
do
some
things
with
culture,
whether
it's
retreats
or
whether
it's
other
assemblies
that
we
have
partnerships,
that
we
have
with
police
partnership,
that
we
have
with
PTAs
and
and
all
that
really
makes
a
difference
in
how
we
are
seen
as
a
school.
So
I
think
that
comes
to
our
conclusion.
Bob
told
me
to
keep
it
brief
because
he
had
a
full
agenda.
So
I
kept
it
brief.
So,
but
we're
willing
to
entertain
any
questions
that
you
might
have
and.
G
Think
part
of
it
is
I
know
why
it
happens.
Sort
of
is
that
we
do
take
some
field
trips
down
there.
In
fact,
September
24th
I
think
it's
a
Thursday
we're
taking
kids
to
colleges
across
the
area.
We're
taking
buses
to
NDSCS,
we're
taking
buses
to
Concordia
to
MSUM
und
military
and
so
and
kids
are
walking
over
the
NDSU
and
so
I
think
that's
part
of
it.
Just
to
get
that
exposure.
We
have
a
very
strong
vocational
Tech
program
in
our
districts,
so
some
of
our
kids
are
just
naturally
gonna
gravitate
towards
that
as
well.
H
H
G
H
Add
at
least
a
Davies:
we
have
11
classes
that
are
offered
through
the
dual
credit
programming,
where
a
student
could
take
the
class
not
only
for
high
school
credit,
but
dual
credit,
and
our
partnership
is
very
strong
in
that
regard.
With
North
Dakota
State
College
of
Science.
They
have
a
really
nice
footprint
and
then
I
also
would
add.
I
Rebecca,
thank
you
for
the
information
again
and
I'm
curious
in
regard
to
when
you
were
talking
about
safety
and
the
spaces
in
our
schools,
where
the
kids
feel
they're
safer
in
some
areas
than
others,
and
so
some
of
that
drilled
down
data.
Is
it
possible
for
us
to
receive
that
in?
If
that's
part
of
this
report,
I'm
not
sure
but
I'd,
be
interested
in
in
taking
a
look
at
that
in
receiving
information
down
the
road
about
what
we
do
with
that
data?
How
we
use
that
data?
G
We
could
easily
give
you
the
survey
link
and
you
can
spend
many
hours
taking
a
look
at
the
data.
There's
I
think
it's
33
pages
of
data,
but
it
does
drill
down
into
where
kids
feel
safe
and
where
they're
feeling
unsafe
in
it,
whether
it's
drawing
I,
agree
or
disagree
and
so
forth.
Yeah
I'll
share
that
link
with
Bob
and
share
with
you
guys.
Thank.
C
Don't
have
a
question
I
think
we
just
wanted
to
recognize
all
of
our
high
school
principals.
One
of
the
requirements
that
we
have
under
the
every
student
succeeds
act
is
to
report
on
how
to
ice
already.
Our
students
are
and
choice.
Readies
defined
by
students
are
prepared
either
for
any
post-secondary
institution,
whether
it's
a
four-year
or
two-year,
or
the
military
or
the
workforce,
and
all
three
of
our
schools
have
been
recognized
as
leaders
in
the
state
for
the
amount
of
students
that
we
have
that
were
graduating,
that
meet
the
threshold
of
being
choice.
C
Ready,
schools
and
I
know
that
Fargo
public
schools,
having
all
of
our
comprehensive
high
schools,
would
kind
of
be
recognized
for
that
or
are
some
of
the
leaders
in
the
States
I
just
want
to
extend
my
kudos
to
our
high
school
principals
that
I
know
that
they're
doing
a
tremendous
amount
of
work
around
that
we
talked
about
just
unique
experiences
and
sharing
our
stories.
Last
year
the
state
of
North
Dakota
put
out
a
publication
recognizing
high
school
seniors.
C
That
I
think
had
a
perfect
score
on
one
of
their
assessments
and
no
one
from
Fargo
Public
Schools
was
recognized
and
we
had
phone
calls
going
off
the
chain
about.
Can
we
contact
dpi
on
what's
happening
and
we
reached
out
to
dpi
and
they
said
we're
only
recognizing
seniors.
Everyone
from
Fargo
Public
Schools
I
hit
this
threshold
as
sophomores
and
juniors.
So
it
was
just
an
interesting
story.
C
G
A
A
A
C
Like
every
other
year,
we
run
a
fantastic
summer
school
program
here
at
Fargo
public
schools.
Today,
you'll
hear
about
our
elementary
and
high
school
summer
school
program
and
I
believe
that
our
next
board
meeting
you'll
get
to
hear
about
the
trollwood
Academy
summer
program
as
well,
so
to
just
go
through
the
elementary
and
high
school
program.
I
will
ask
Rebecca,
Folden
and
David
Berkman
to
come
up
and
then
make
it
well
introduce
the
rest
of
their
team
as
well.
K
One
other,
thank
you
and
shout
out
to
superintendents
in
the
school
board
is
I
think
summer
school
is
where
alternative
education
becomes
gnorm
and
one
normally
doesn't
think
that
summer
school
is
alternative
education,
but
when
we're
doing
a
four
and
a
half
hour
class
for
15
days
for
a
half
credit
that
is
very
alternative
in
terms
of
our
setup.
So
we
think
thank
you
for
the
support
of
alternative
education
and
tonight
we're
talking
summer
school
within
that
realm
of
alternative
education.
K
I'll
just
briefly
hit
a
couple
of
highlights
so
regular
school
year,
23
sites
summer
school,
18
sites
our
summer
school
staff.
We
have
about
250
staff
in
all
programming
that
make
summer
school
happen.
So
it
is,
it
is
very,
very
broad,
spread
across
the
district
I
think
the
last
piece
I'll
say
is
we
had
5,000
successful,
5,000
12,
successful
seats
opportunities
completed
this
summer.
That
would
mean
that
an
opportunity
was
offered
any
student
successfully
completed.
It
may
have
been
a
volleyball
camp
may
have
been
sixth
grade.
K
L
So
I
am
Becky,
Fulton
I
am
the
principal
at
Clara
Barton
Hawthorne,
during
the
regular
school
year
and
in
the
summer.
I
think
this
is
just
shy
of
10
years
that
I
have
been
leading
summer
school
at
the
elementary
level,
I'm
going
to
kind
of
go
and
flip-flop
order
from
what's
on
there,
we're
gonna
start
a
little
bit
with
transitions.
You
have
a
packet
that
you
picked
up
so
starting
on
page
two:
we're
going
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
transitions.
L
L
You
can
see
on
page
two
there's
a
variety
of
options:
it's
a
four-hour
program,
so
it's
either
four
hours
of
reading
four
hours
of
math
or
it's
split
two
and
two
two
hours
of
each
and
there's
a
huge
amount
of
ways
that
they
can
qualify
for
summer
school.
This
is
a
state-funded
program,
so
there
is
a
criteria,
and
it's
teacher
referred
it's
not
something
that
anyone
can
just
say.
I
simply
want
to
do
this.
L
This
is
something
that
they
have
to
qualify
and
show
the
need
for
so
there's
a
variety
of
ways
that
they
can
show.
Some
are
just
simply
based
on
their
progress.
If
it's
a
title
school,
they
automatically
can
have
every
student
qualify
and
then,
if
you
flip
to
page
three
you'll
see
some
more
specific
information
there
with
our
split
campuses,
they
choose
one
location
to
host
students,
so
HMR
attended
at
Roosevelt
cbh
attended
at
Hawthorne.
L
This
is
a
little
different
in
the
summer.
Parents
can
choose
any
school.
So
if
my
daycare
in
the
summer
is
not
my
typical
school
that
I
go
to
during
the
school
year,
but
I'm
going
to
fyc
or
I'm
going
somewhere
else,
they
can
choose
anywhere.
They
want
to
attend.
Dates
were
July
8th
through
the
26
and
basically
a
parent
just
has
to
have
a
Fargo
address
in
order
for
them
to
qualify
to
come
to
the
Fargo
public
schools.
So
we
had
many
locations
this
year.
Lincoln
and
Longfellow
were
closed
due
to
construction.
L
So
this
probe
this
process
starts
in
February
and
so
at
conference
time
our
teachers
are
talking
with
parents
and
referring
students
for
this
we
get
many
that
register
and
then,
by
the
time
July
comes
around,
you
can
see
the
numbers
that
actually
attend
to
drop
quite
a
bit.
This
is
a
free
program,
so
there's
nothing
that
will
happen
if
they
if
they
drop
the
program,
so
we
lose
over
a
hundred
two
hundred
and
fifty
students
every
year
from
the
time
they
register
to
the
time
the
program
starts
last
year.
L
Excuse
me:
this
year
we
had
616
registered
with
502,
actually
attending
I'd,
say
one
of
the
biggest
hiccups
that
kind
of
come
with
this
is
there
is
no
transportation
in
the
summer,
so
our
families
are
expected
to
transport
and
being
an
8
to
noon
program.
Sometimes
that
can
be
difficult
for
families
to
get
their
child
to
school,
and
so
that
is
a
little
bit
of
a
hinder
for
our
program.
L
This
year
and
you'll
see
when
we
get
to
the
last
page,
transitions
numbers
went
down,
and
specifically,
we
lost
a
lot
of
students
at
Jefferson
this
year,
but
it's
kind
of
a
good
thing,
because
Lori
will
talk
a
little
bit
about
a
new
program.
They
started
at
Jefferson
for
AL
summer
school
and
so
we're
sharing
those
kids,
and
it
just
happened
that
those
kids
were
better
qualified
for
her
program.
L
So
you'll
see
that
those
numbers
are
offset
a
little
bit
then
in
on
page
four
in
the
month
of
June
it's
a
week
after
school
is
done.
We
start
the
enrichment
summer,
school
and
I
kind
of
think
of
these
as
classes
that
are
just
fun
and
and
some
of
our
teachers
have
just
a
passion
to
go
back
and
teach.
L
We
have
staff
from
the
high
school
level
through
the
elementary
level
that
are
teaching,
so
it's
fun
to
bring
some
of
our
high
schools
down
to
the
elementary
level
to
do
French
or
to
do
something
unique,
and
so
it's
kind
of
fun
for
them
again.
This
is
three
weeks
long.
There
are
two
hours
of
peace,
the
class
cost
$75
and
there
were
20
sessions
offered.
This
summer
again
we
had
students
from
all
over
Moorhead
Nativity
Oak
Grove
West
Fargo.
L
We
had
some
out-of-state
schools,
our
students
come
to
attend
and
then
you
can
see
at
the
bottom
of
page
4
on
page
5
or
the
variety
of
different
classes
that
we
offered
every
year
we
have
some
new
classes
in
this
summer's
stem.
Our
steam
classes
were
kind
of
kind
of
the
big
push,
and
so
we
had
a
variety
of
classes
in
that
area
and
they're
very
well
received,
and
so
on
the
very
pay.
L
On
page
six,
you
will
see
that
we
started
with
218
that
registered
and
212
actually
completed
and
attended,
and
we're
very
lucky
that
the
Foundation
has
given
us.
We
write
a
grant
every
year
so
that
students
that
can't
afford
to
tent
to
attend
have
the
opportunity
in
and
so
that's
offered
every
year
as
well
any
questions
about
those
two
programs.
I
Well,
I've
I
think
we've
heard
this
more
than
once
about
the
transportation
issue
regarding
the
the
transitions
program,
so
I'm
just
hoping
that
down
the
road.
We
can
have
some
additional
conversations
about
that,
especially
considering
it's
a
teacher.
You
know
it's
a
recommended
program
for
these
students
and
so
that
it
doesn't
feel
right
to
me
and
so
I
would
hope
that
we
have
conversations
about
and
look
at
ways
that
we
can
provide
some
assistance
in
that.
L
And
I
would
definitely
say
when
I
get
the
phone
calls
of
why
they're
dropping
over
50%
is
transportation.
I
thought
I
could
make
it
work
and
no
I
can't
yeah
and
and
I
do
have
to
say.
You
know
the
numbers
on
the
back
show
some
of
these
programs,
or
specifically
transitions,
is
slowly
dropping
in
numbers,
but
I
think
we've
also
gotten
a
really
good.
L
We've
worked
very
closely
with
extended
school
year,
which
will
come
up
and
now
with
al
who's,
doing
some
great
programs
that
we've
really
made
sure
to
make
sure
that
kids
are
in
the
right
program.
We've
added
a
lot
of
programs
that
were
previously
there,
and
so
now
we're
really
feeling
good
that
kids
are
in
the
right
program
to
help
them,
and
so
numbers
are
changing
a
little
bit.
But
it's
not
necessarily
a
bad
change.
We're
we're
offering
what
they
need.
A
Thank
you,
Miss
Folden
I
think
that
that
might
be
some
type
of
legislative
conversation
that
we
can
have
as
well.
I
know,
transportation
is
not
required
to
be
offered
through
this
day,
but
that
does
not
mean
that
dollars
could
should
not
be
sought
in
the
interim
and
during
the
session.
So
thank
you.
Go
ahead.
M
All
right,
blue
all
right-
it's
not
red!
It's
blue
I'm
here
to
talk
about
the
high
school
sort
of
changing
years,
are
going
from
elementary
all
the
way
up
to
high
school
high
school
sports
camps,
academics
and
then
the
middle
school
music
programs
I'll
start
with
the
academic
pieces.
We
have
a
lot
of
course
offerings.
We
offer
a
full
range
of
English,
a
full
range
of
math,
a
full
range
of
social
studies
courses.
We
also
offer
physical
science
as
a
science
class.
M
History
has
taught
us
that
other
science
classes
are
not
well
attended,
so
we
don't
offer
other
Sciences,
but
we
do
offer
the
physical
science
in.
We
also
offer
us
a
health
class
which
is
very
popular.
We
offer
ROTC
a
week-long
summer,
Leadership
School
camp,
where
they
are
off
at
summer
camp
for
a
week,
which
is
great
for
them.
We
offer
the
behind
the
wheel
experience
for
the
drivers.
Eady
we
offer
marketing.
We
offer
work,
co-op
experiences
we
offer
PE.
So
a
lot
of
academic
course
opportunities
for
our
students.
M
The
classroom
opportunities
are
primarily
at
South,
High
School.
We
do
offer
a
shuttle
bus
both
from
north
and
from
Davies,
so
students
in
those
neighborhoods
can
hop
on
the
shuttle
bus
and
arrive
at
South
High
on
time
and
get
to
their
classes.
We
also
spread
the
PE
out
across
all
three
of
the
big
high
schools
so
that
everybody
has
local
access
to
Fayette
opportunity,
the
structure
of
the
classes,
as
David
mentioned
it's
a
15
day
four
and
a
half
hour
super
block
for
the
academics.
M
M
Any
questions
about
the
academic
piece:
okay,
athletic
camps,
which
is
our
on
page
eight.
We
reach
out
to
all
the
coaches
at
the
high
schools,
ask
them
what
they
would
like
to
offer
for
a
summer
program
and
different
coaches
choose
to
set
it
very
differently,
but
we
facilitate
that
with
them.
Some
camps
go
as
young
as
1st
and
2nd.
Some
coaches
focus
only
on
the
high
school.
Some
camps
are
many
many
weeks
long.
Some
are
just
a
couple
of
days,
so
it's
really
highly
variable.
M
What
that
experience
looks
like,
depending
on
the
sport
and
the
coaches,
preference
and
there's
information
about
what
we
did
offer
in
here.
I
won't
read
that
we
also
offer
a
middle
school
music
program,
intermediate
band
and
then
also
Orchestra
band
was
at
North
High.
This
year,
Orchestra
was
at
Ben
Franklin
I.
The
hope
is
to
be
able
to
move
back
to
discovery.
Now
that
that's
facility
is
nearing
completion.
M
Okay,
then
I'm,
going
to
direct
you
to
page
13,
which
has
the
numbers
I
know
you
guys,
like
numbers,
so
numbers
in
terms
of
enrollments,
fairly
stable
academic
number
very
consistent.
The
last
couple
of
years,
PE
down
a
little
bit,
I'm,
not
sure
why
that
is
marketing
consistent,
it's
a
small
program
driver's
ed
is
down
quite
a
bit,
and
the
reason
for
that
is
we
had
a
number
of
instructors
retire,
move
on,
so
we
had
fewer
opportunities,
fewer
classes
that
were
available.
M
N
N
We
had
transportation
for
the
first
three
weeks
and
then
the
second
three
weeks
we
did
not.
So
we
have
a
grant
that
provides
transportation,
but
it
only
lasted
for
three
weeks.
So
when
you're
taking
that
up
we'd
appreciate,
we
would
greatly
appreciate
that,
so
this
is
being
done
during
the
school
year
and
a
few
of
our
teachers
had
taken
the
training
and
said
I'd
like
to
see
how
this
works
with
the
summer
and
it's
a
Jan
Richardson
model.
And
if
you
know,
reading
recovery
is
one-on-one
intensive
intervention.
N
This
is
for
a
small
group
like
three
to
six
students,
so
they're
getting
the
same
kind
of
two
hours
of
intensive
intervention.
Within
their
four
hour
day,
the
teachers
select
books
and
writing
activities
that
are
very
specific
to
each
child's
reading
and
writing
needs.
So
the
teachers
spend
a
lot
more
time
after
school,
making
sure
that
each
student
has
the
book
that
is
perfect
for
them
to
move
into
it's
like
I
said
it
was
a
six
week
program
that
yielded
an
average
of
student
gains
from
two
to
four
levels
of
reading.
N
So
the
part
parts
of
the
program
we
called
it
the
rotation
station,
they
have
guided
reading
activities
with
the
teacher,
so
it's
the
teachers
having
them
expand
their
sentences.
You
know
use
descriptive
language
guided
reading
with
the
teacher
who
has
selected
a
book
that
is
specific
to
the
students
needs.
They
have
a
read
to
self,
either
rereading
a
familiar
book
or
previewing
a
new
one,
the
free
plate
activities
were
you
know
we
let
the
kids
play,
but
it
was
all
stem
activities.
N
They
were
making
bridges,
they
were
making
things
that
would
doodle
from
one
spot
to
the
other,
so
it
was
even
though
it
was
you
get
to
use
your
imagination
in
its
free
play.
It
was
getting
them
ready
for
when
they're
a
little
bit
older
and
doing
steam
activities-
and
this
is
my
favorite
picture
of
the
summer
when
the
students
had
a
little
happy
4th
of
July
celebration
and
one
note
that
I
am
very
proud
to
tell
you.
N
Is
we
had
a
fifth
grade
teacher
join
us
for
yell
yell
summer
school
and
she
happens
to
be
at
the
same
school.
That
I
am-
and
she
said,
I'm
ready
to
get
my
graduate
degree
and
I'm
gonna.
Do
it
in
Al.
Will
you
help
me
and
I'm
like
yeah,
so
any
questions
for
me
at
all
I
just
want
to
thank
you
again
for
supporting
our
yo
students
in
the
summer.
O
One
of
the
roles
that
I
was
able
to
take
on
this
summer
was
supporting
our
remedial
math
and
reading
classes.
We
were
at
three
sites
this
summer,
Ben
Franklin,
Carl,
Ben
and
then
Centennial,
because
discovery
was
under
construction.
We
serve
78
students
with
the
goal
of
boosting
or
maintaining
Reath
reading
and
math
skills.
You
also
have
a
side
goal
of
rien
gauging
students.
O
These
students
are
usually
our
most
at-risk
students
that
were
just
trying
to
reconnect
and
hopefully
get
them
in
on
a
successful
path
to
start,
possibly
transferring
those
skills
to
the
fall
of
the
school
year,
which
leads
me
to
a
story.
I
wanted
to
share.
With
all
of
you.
We
had
a
student
end
last
spring,
who
was
homebound
because
of
a
medical
procedure
that
was
performed.
He
was
really
having
trouble
getting
back
into
the
flow
of
school
in
the
spring,
but
he
had
signed
up
for
summer
school.
O
We
didn't
anticipate
that
he
would
come
and
it
was
a
huge
celebration
when
we
saw
him
there,
and
not
only
did
he
come.
He
came
every
single
day,
except
for
the
last
day.
I
was
making
rounds
to
the
different
sites
and
noticed
he
wasn't
there.
When
I
talked
to
the
teachers
that
were
at
the
site,
they
had
already
called
home.
O
They'd
already
made
connection
with
him
and
his
mom,
and
he
was
on
his
way
because
they
did
not
want
him
to
miss
that
last
day
they
were
doing
a
celebration
because
they
wanted
to
make
sure
that
that
success
continued
into
the
fall.
I
checked
his
attendance
today,
just
because
I
was
curious
to
see
what
he
was
doing.
He
hasn't
missed
a
single
day
and
he
hasn't
been
tardy
one
time,
so
he
left
off
in
the
spring,
with
some
struggles
and
started.
This
fall
and
he's
off
to
a
start.
O
Another
area
that
I
support
is
extended
school
year.
I
work
with
Alice
wim
can
supporting
our
special
education
students.
So
this
is
just
a
snapshot
of
the
students
that
we
had
registered
compared
to
the
students
that
we
have
attending.
Unlike
the
challenge
that
Becky
faces
with
transportation,
we
do
provide
transportation
to
all
of
our
special
education
students,
so
we
do
have
a
little
bit
higher
attendance
numbers.
O
Another
part
of
why
we
have
a
little
bit
more
consistent
registered
to
attendance
is
that
these
students
are
selected
through
their
IEP
teams
every
spring,
so
case
managers,
parents,
administrators,
sit
down
and
determine
if
the
student
meets
qualifications
to
extend
their
school
year,
the
format
of
extended
school
year.
We
did
this
year,
Tuesdays
and
Thursdays.
O
We
supported
students
with
our
academic
needs
and
then,
when
they
Wednesdays,
we
supported
their
social
skills,
needs
for
some
students
that
meant
attending
all
three
days
because
they
needed
support
in
all
areas
and
for
some
it
just
meant
a
Tuesday
Thursday
schedule,
or
maybe
just
a
Wednesday
schedule.
So
the
teachers
were
really
able
to
narrow
the
support
they
were,
providing
the
students
all
of
our
esy
sites
this
year
received
milk
and
breakfast
or
snack
in
the
mornings.
O
Thanks
to
the
work
of
Sidney,
Hodgson
and
Nutrition
Services,
and
also
at
South
CBE
and
our
eld
sites,
we
were
also
able
to
provide
lunch
along
with
breakfast
and
milk.
So
a
big
celebration
that
came
out
of
Nutrition
Services,
just
some
pictures
from
esy
this
year-
we're
really
working
on
trying
to
build
more
connections
with
a
community
for
these
students.
So
we
tried
to
bring
more
opportunities
to
them.
We
were
able
to
connect
with
diamond
in
the
rough
and
bring
some
service
animals
on-site.
We
were
able
to
get
more
adaptive
music
teachers
at
each
site.
O
They
were
able
to
watch
Beauty
the
Beast
rehearsals,
the
students
that
really
enjoyed
that
a
lot
of
sites
worked
on
some
gardening
projects.
We
did
a
lot
of
stem
activities,
lots
of
hands-on
collaborative
learning
and
then,
of
course,
slime,
which
is
a
huge
hit
with
our
students.
Any
questions
about
middle
school
or
extended
school
year
for
our
special
education
students.
K
Dinner
for
free
was
unable
to
be
here
tonight
and
she
did
extend
an
invitation
to
the
board
if
you
would
ever
want
to
have
an
ALC
presentation,
not
only
for
summer
school
but
during
the
school
year.
She
said
let
her
know
and
she'd
be
happy
to
to
come
and
give
a
presentation
so,
like
I,
said
well
over
250
staff,
18
buildings,
5000
completions
tremendous
team
from
teacher
to
parrot,
so
the
the
admin
teams
that
work
great
opportunity
for
our
students.
A
Any
other
questions
for
mr.
Bergman
I
think
I
need
to
note
that
5,000
12
students
are
almost
half
of
our
population
of
Fargo
public
schools
that
I
realized
those
were
unduplicated
numbers,
but
it
really
goes
to
show
you
that
school
does
not
stop
when
he
lets
out
in
the
spring.
Our
schools
are
busy
all
year
round.
So
thank
you
for
your
work,
very
impressive,
very
important
for
our
students
to
achieve
and
succeed
have
a
great
evening.
B
A
P
Q
Hello,
everybody
good
evening:
I
am
Karen
Halloran
and
I'm
the
purchase
being
specialist
at
the
district
office
and
I'm.
Also
the
chair
for
the
Health
Insurance
Committee
on
the
board
memo
31,
that's
in
front
of
you.
The
committee
has
made
recommendations
to
the
board
in
regards
to
our
plans
and
I'm,
just
gonna
briefly
go
through
what
we
have
put
together
for
you
to
review.
Q
The
first
part
is
to
remain
with
Blue
Cross
Blue
Shield
of
North
Dakota
at
their
health
plan
carrier,
convert
the
select
choice
plan
to
classic
blue
with
an
open
access
network
increase
the
health
insurance
funding
level.
At
an
overall
rate
of
thirteen
point,
nine
percent
seventeen
percent
premium
increased
a
classic
Lu,
which
is
the
traditional
plan.
Seven
percent
premium
increased
the
blue
saber,
the
high
deductible
health
plan.
Q
The
increase
to
employee
cost
share
would
be
six
point:
seven,
five
percent
to
classic
blue
and
two
point:
five
percent
to
bluesaver
we'd
be
we'd,
maintain
the
recommendation
would
be
maintain.
The
health
savings
account
employer
contribution
levels
that
we
already
have
and
then
no
change
in
our
plan
design,
as
you
can
see
at
the
table
below
it,
shows
the
ten
months
premium
and
the
adjustment
cost
sharing
from
calendar
2019
and
what
it
would
look
like
in
calendar
2020.
A
R
President
Nelson
for
our
policy
gp3
and
North
Dakota
century
code,
15.1,
oh
seven,
17
and
also
century
code
44,
oh
four,
22
I'm
gonna
disclose
the
conflict
of
interest
this
evening
and
will
abstain
for
dissipating
in
any
discussion
or
votes
in
this
plan,
including
the
recommendations
here
tonight.
I
conflict
is
that
I'm
employed
by
Blue
Cross,
Blue
Shield
of
North
Dakota
and
while
I
am
NOT,
an
officer
of
the
company
involved
in
planned
contents,
pricing
or
servicing
of
claims.
I
do
believe
that
that
is
clearly
a
conflict
of
interest.
R
A
You
for
that
disclosure-
please
note,
as
as
far
as
this
conflict
of
interest
with
contracts,
the
board
can
unanimously
approve
John
to
participate
in
vote
in
this
conversation.
So
if
there
are
any
motions
that
would
like
to
come
forth
at
this
time,
okay,
we
do
have
a
presentation
on
the
floor.
I
have
a
quick
question
before
we
get
started
with
conversation.
Can
you
give
me
a
sampling
of
who
serves
on
the
Health
Insurance
Committee?
Please
sure.
Q
F
B
I'm
going
to
recommend
that
we
approve
the
health
insurance
committee's
recommendation,
but
grudgingly
I'm,
but
just
because
of
the
size
of
the
increase
our
employees
are
gonna,
see
but
I
understand
we're
trying
to
keep
our
plan
fiscally
solvent
as
well.
So
I
will
move
that
we
adopt
the
health
insurance
committee's
recommendations,
as
outlined
in
memo.
31.
E
Q
E
Q
We
extensively
had
quite
a
bit
of
conversation
and
looked
at
different
modeling's
as
far
as
what
we
could
do
for
the
employees
and
when
we
went
to
the
last
meeting.
We
had
two
options
and
there
was
this
last
option
that
would
make
the
traditional
plan
become
positive.
Instead
of
losing
money
in
the
fund
and
over
the
last
ten
years
we
presented
to
the
group
that
we
went
from
12
million
down
to
3
million
and
well
as
a
group.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
going
to
be
solvent
and
have
that
self-funded
health
insurance
plan.
Q
Buffer
or
enough
money
in
there
so
that
we
will
continue
to
have
for
self-funded
insurance
plan.
I
know
it's
a
lot.
I
mean
a
lot
of
people
on
the
committee.
You
know
struggled
with
it,
but
overall
you
know
the
people
still
have
a
choice.
They
can
either
stay
on
the
plan
or
go
to
the
high
deductible.
A
Thank
you,
I
know.
Many
employers
are
at
the
mercy
of
the
actuarials.
So
thank
you
for
your
work
on
this
I
Jennifer
Benson
is
not
here.
She
is
the
board
liaison
to
the
Health
Insurance
Committee
and
she
is
urging
that
we
received
some
education
on
self-funded
plans.
I
know
a
lot
of
discussion
was
on
the
solvency
of
the
self-administered
insurance
plan
as
well,
and
there's
some
efforts
there.
We
discussed
it
at
a
planning
briefly,
but
I
think
that's
a
great
suggestion,
because
it's
not
Orthodox
for
many
people
to
be
part
of
a
self-funded
plan.
E
Q
Know
that
in
front
of
me,
but
when
we
put
this
proposal
together,
Gallagher
did
put
like
a
mitigation
as
far
as
how
many
people
may
come
from
the
classic
blue
over
and
the
last
I
say.
But
at
three
or
four
years
we've
had
the
plan
we're
a
lot
higher
in
numbers
of
people
on
the
blue
saber
than
most
employers.
Q
Please
players
that
have
so
overall
I,
don't
know
the
actual
percentage,
but
I
mean
we're
pretty
good
I
mean
we've
seen
the
mitigation
from
10
and
I'm,
not
sure
for
up
Chile,
I
I
can't
say
for
exact,
exactly
I,
don't
want
to
say
we're
at
20
and
then
come
to
find
out
we're
at
15.
So
I
could
check
into
that
and
get
back
to
you.
E
Q
You
know
that
this
is
what
my
costs
going
to
be
for
the
year
I'm,
not
guessing.
Well,
if
I
flex,
this
much
am
I
gonna
have
enough
money,
so
it
could
be
anybody's.
You
know
just
depends
good.
A
lot
of
single
people
could
benefit
from
it.
There's
some
people
that
are
not
able
to
be
on
the
bluesaver
as
far
as
if
you're
on
Medicare,
you
know
just
depends
on
your
situation.
I.
E
Hate
to
burden
wood
education
on
the
blue,
saber
on
you
know
so
people
better
understood
the
advantages.
Would
that
help?
If,
if
we
were
to,
you
know,
have
classes
available
or
whatever
meetings
to
explain
the
blue
saber,
it
seemed
I've
studied
too,
and
it
seems
like
the
way
to
go.
It
really
does
a
lot.
Q
Of
people
are
apprehensive
or
the
fear
of
what,
if
you
know
in
my
you
know,
am
I
going
to
be
able
to
make
it
on
this
plan.
But
you
know
once
I
moved
over
it
over
to
it.
I
look
back
and
went.
I
should
have
done
this
sooner
I'm.
Glad
I
did
it.
When
I
did
we
do
educational
plans
on
it,
I
mean
there's
information
out
on
our
portal.
We
have
Gallagher
come
in
on
open,
enrollment
and
give
different
classes
at
least
two
or
three
times.
Q
You
know
during
open
enrollment
at
different
schools,
and
you
know
explain
to
him
that
you
know
here's
the
scenario
for
someone
I
think
a
lot
of
it.
Gonna
have
to
do
with.
You
know,
personal,
how
you
know
someone
else
like
myself
talking
to
you
know
another
employee
or
somebody
else,
and
that
word
gets
out
and
and
they're
like.
Oh,
you
know,
maybe
I
need
to
take
a
look
at
that
and
see
what
it
would
benefit
me
or
not.
P
Jackie
follow
up
I'll.
Just
add
to
that
the
committee
has,
they
did
last
year
purchase
a
subscription
to
a
tool
called
Alex
which
will
walk
an
individual
through
the
process
to
determine
what
may
be
best
for
them.
So
I
think
the
committee
is
looking
at.
You
know
really
trying
to
get
that
message
back
out
there
again.
There
will
be
a
lot
of
interest,
probably
in
looking
to
switch
this
year,
based
on
on
what
we're
seeing,
but
hopefully
that
tool
will
be
a
guide
than
to
help
people
make
the
right
decision
for
themselves.

Want
to
call
it
one
item
here
and
I
usually
avoid
us
getting
into
the
weeds
of
these
things,
but
and
I
know
we
had
a
first
reading,
but
on
the
second
reading
here,
I
want
to
call
on
page
seven
towards
the
bottom,
under
the
assigned
to
technology
implementing
multi-factor
authentication,
to
enhance
the
network
security
protections
of
all
fps
staff.
This
is
a
major
risk
mitigation
that
we
should
be
aware
of
what
this
does
is
it
prevents
somebody
from
guessing
or
stealing
your
password
and
using
that
to
log
in
as
you
and
misusing
your
account.
R
This
requires
something
in
addition
to
passwords
and
I.
Think
I
hope
that
this
is
also
going
to
apply
to
the
board.
I
know
we
are
high-value
targets,
I
have
received
spear,
phishing
emails
that
are
pretending
to
come
from
superintendent,
Gandhi
or
other
members
of
the
board
asking
for
a
quick
and
immediate
action
for
me
to
respond
to
them.
This
prevents
us
from
having
our
credentials
stolen
as
well.
R
A
S
B
R
R
A

We
brought
the
strategic
plan
for
a
first
reading
at
the
August
27th
meeting.
The
bulleted
changes
in
your
in
your
memo
are
the
changes
that
we
had
brought
to
the
August
27th
meeting.
Since
then
we
went
back
and
we
all
we
took
our
indicators.
There
was
a
conversation
around
making
them
more
measurable
and
what
they
look
like.
So
we
added
some
language
to
make
those
indicators
more
measurable.
Take
the
strategic
plan
back
to
planning
on
September
6
and
are
now
asking
for
the
final
approval
for
this
strategic
plan
as
presented.
U
I
I
will
be
voting
YES
on
this.
There
is
wonderful
detail
in
here
and
I
wanted
to
highlight
one
item
here
regarding
cultural
proficiency
at
strategic
initiative.
Three
I
just
I
think
that
it's
wonderful
that
we
have
initiatives
where
we
are
paying
attention
and
monitoring
where
we
are
as
a
district
on
cultural
proficiency,
and
it
talks
about
cultural
proficiency
being
a
mindset.
A
worldview.
A
way
of
a
person
of
an
organization
makes
assumptions
for
effectively
describing
responding
to
and
planning
for
issues
that
arise
in
diverse
environments.
I
It
talks
about
as
a
result
of
our
efforts,
students
and
staff
will
accept
respect
the
diversity
of
gender
race,
culture
and
age
differences.
I
think
it's
so
important
during
this
time
that
we
that
we
have
these
words
in
our
strategic
plan,
and
there
are
so
many
things
that
we
could
be
highlighting
here.
That's
good,
but
I
wanted
to
speak
to
that
as
one
highlight.
I
Additionally,
there
are
some
edits
that
I
have
found
in
this
document.
Forgive
me
I'm
an
editor
and
a
writer,
so
I
have
found
some
commas
and
some
arse
and
and
it's
an
eyes-
and
you
know
so
grammatical
and
some
punctuation
items-
I've
talked
to
Ann
Marie
about
it
and
Robyn,
and
rue
pox.
So
I
will
be
forwarding
my
my
hard
copy
to
Ann
Marie.
R
S
S
R
A
B
R
S
E
R
A
A
T
S
R
R
A
C
Sure
the
long
way
to
studies
plan
just
kind
of
outlines
potential
opportunities
for
the
district
as
we
look
at
look
at
our
facilities
and
where
we
went
ahead
in
the
long
range.
This
was
discussed
in
terms
with
our
planning
committee
as
well.
So
I
do
want
to
just
refer
to
some
language
that
you'll
see
in
the
long-range
facilities
plan,
although
there
may
be
a
timeline
or
some
specific
projects.
I've
been
outlined
on
page
12
right
before
we
get
to
the
timeline.
We
do
say
that
essentially
not
everything
in
here
is
a
concrete
for
sure.
C
There
are
some
factors
that
could
depend
on
the
timing
of
a
project
or
whether
we
engage
in
a
project
or
not,
such
as
the
district
finances
and
we're
going
to
use
this
a
model
or
a
long-range
financial
plan
or
other
conversations
that
the
board
may
have
as
well.
So,
although
this
could
be
a
vision
for
where
we're
headed,
every
individual
project
in
here
would
have
to
go
into
greater
detail,
come
to
planning,
and
that
doesn't
mean
that
everything
in
here
is
going
to
happen
exactly,
as
is
because
this
is
just
more
for
a
guiding
document.
J
R
I
don't
know
if
this
is
the
proper
document
for
this
and
I
hesitate
to
bring
it
up
because
of
unrelated
matters,
and
but
looking
at
the
guiding
principles
for
facility
decisions.
I
am
wondering
if
we
need
to
as
a
board
consider
the
climate
impact
of
our
buildings
and,
as
we
are
considering
possibly
building
new
facilities
in
the
future
requirements
on
green
building
and
and
codifying
those
in
to
our
guiding
principles
for
facility
decisions.
I
don't
have
a
proposal
right
now,
but
I
wanted
to
bring
this
up
for
discussion
and
what
would
be
the
proper
correct.
A
C
Yeah
I
think
I,
don't
know
if
that
would
necessarily
long
and
the
long
range
facilities
plan
or
in
certain.
Maybe
if
we
have
documents
that
talk
about
the
standard
for
which
we
build
our
buildings
and
what
what
that
looks
like
I
would
have
to
probably
dive
deeper
what
the
maintenance
operations
department
and
say:
where
does
that
fit
in
and.
B
W
B
So
I
think
if
we
wanted
to
do
something
to
that
end,
it
might
be
in
one
of
the
next
items
we're
going
to
look
at
where
we're
talking
about
our
al
16
for
a
facility
approval
but
I'd
caution
us,
because
the
LEED
certification
can
change
in
the
future,
and
it
may
mean
we've
got
a
policy
that
we're
gonna
have
to
violate
I.
Think,
rather
than
put
a
heard
rule
in
place.
I
think
the
whole
notion
that
we
want
to
be
environmentally
friendly,
not
just
in
our
footprint
but
in
our
operating
print,
is
more
important.
R
I
A
Some
of
the
changes
that
did
come
out
of
the
task
force
that
should
be
highlighted
is
under
our
guiding
principles.
The
number
seven,
the
preference
is
to
have
middle
school
to
high
school
attendance
boundary
feeder
system.
That
was
a
result
of
that
conversation,
as
were
the
these
shifts
in
the
sizes
of
middle
school
and
high
schools,
so
that
that
was
taken
to
heart.
C
Correct
and
and
the
long-range
financial
plan
I
believe
will
be
coming
in
an
upcoming
board
meeting.
It's
scheduled
to
be
presented
to
our
planning
committee
on
September,
17th
I.
Think
Jackie
was
almost
waiting
on
this
document
to
kind
of
build
that
document
the
world
was
in
a
chicken
and
egg
situation,
knowing
where
we
want
what
we
want
to
prioritize
as
a
district
and
what
could
be
it's
a
guiding
document
to
kind
of
build
a
long
way
into
financial
plan.
C
A
R
B
A
Under
board
policies,
we
have
three
policies
that
the
Governance
Committee
is
bringing
forth
tonight.
They
are
all
somewhat
related,
l16
talks
about
adding
a
facilities,
let's
see
here,
facilities,
executive
limitations,
policy
to
our
board
policies
and
as
a
result
and
sorry
that
was
a
result
of
the
advice
that
we
got
from
the
aspen
group.
A
Recommendations
related
to
that
is
a
proposed
change
in
a
l9
that
pulls
out
some
one
line:
number
14
and
moves
that
to
the
proposed
L
16,
which
is
the
facilities,
news
facilities
proposal
and
then
finally,
the
last
related
piece
is
changing
the
calendar
and
adding
when
we
regularly
review
al
16,
so
I
would
entertain
a
motion
for
one
or
all
of
these.
At
the
same
time,
Jim.
F
D
A
Little
backup,
thank
you
to
what
the
Planning
Committee
for
this
was
a
lot
of
work
and
a
lot
of
preparation
for
tonight's
meeting.
So
we
appreciate
your
efforts
on
to
item
seven
of
the
agenda
and
that
is
board
reports.
We
would
start
with
appointing
North,
Dakota
School
Boards
Association
convention
delegates,
Ann
Marie.
Would
you
like
to
provide
some
history
on
that
for
us
usually.
S
U
S
Who's
all
planning
to
go
at
this
time
all
board
members
except
David
Paulson,
have
indicated
they
plan
to
attend
the
annual
conference
in
October
we
as
the
size
of
our
district.
We
have
five
delegates
at
the
delegate
convention.
Jim
Johnson
would
already
be
a
delegate
for
this
because
of
his
role
at
the
state.
So
we
wouldn't
mark
him
down
for
a
delegate
for
fps.
S
So
tonight
you
need
to
appoint
five
people
who
are
willing
to
serve
as
a
delegate.
You
would
need
to
be
able
to
attend
the
delegates
assembly
so
for
some
reason
your
schedule
not
allow
for
that.
You
need
to
be
able
to
attend
anyone
else
who
is
attending
I
will
designate
as
an
alternate
just
in
case
something
changes
with
registration.
Then
another
one
of
you
will
be
able
to
step
in.
R
A
Can
I
have
a
show
hand,
so
I've
got
John
Road
and
biker
Brian
Nelson
Rebecca
Knutson,
taking
in
that
order,
I'd
be
happy
to
serve
as
a
delicate
as
well
one
more
what
I
know:
Christy
okay,
Christy
raised
her
hand.
Next
brandy,
just
a
little
bit.
You
need
to
be
a
little
quicker
on
the
draw
that
doesn't
mean
you
can't
attend.
Oh
okay,
perfect,
okay,
you
got
that
anne-marie!
Yes,.
S
Thank
you,
I
will
get
everybody
registered
and
have
those
people
noted
as
delegates.
Also,
if
you
please
review
what
Robyn
passed
out,
if
you
see
that
I
have
something
down
incorrectly
for
you
as
far
as
your
plans,
and
that
includes
what
we'd
sign
you
up
for
in
addition
to
what
you
would
need
for
lodging.
That
would
be
great
because
I
plan
to
make
those
arrangements
tomorrow.
F
R
They
had
a
student,
a
teacher,
an
administrator,
a
parent,
a
school
resource
officer
and
a
counselor
on
that
panel.
They
had
it
was
they
had
some
prepared
questions.
They
took
questions
from
the
audience.
There
was
a
fairly
good
turnout,
mostly
people
in
that
district
I
thought
there
were
good
questions,
good
discussion.
It
was
really
interesting
to
hear
the
frontline
reports,
the
counselors,
what
the
counselor
said,
something
that
if
that
was
really
important
and
that
our
public
schools
are
still
the
safest
place
for
our
kids
during
the
day.
R
I
also
appreciated
that
that
those
legislators
and
the
panelists
are
recognized
and
made
a
distinction
between
school
safety
being
about
events
like
school,
shooters
and
school
safety.
Being
the
events
that
our
summer
teachers
are
facing
every
day
regarding
emotional
and
behavioral
disturbances
in
the
classroom
and
I.
Thank
them
for
having
that
discussion
in
the
panel.
It
was,
it
was
good
and
then
also
if
you'll
indulge
me
one
more
time
on
this
past
Friday,
the
6th
I
attended
the
first
Friday's
that
be
event.
R
That
is
a
monthly
meeting
about
food
issues
in
our
community,
and
this
particular
one
was
regarding
school
lunch
issues.
There
were
three
people
on
this
panel
Kara
glow
from
the
Moorhead
School
Board
Dana
wreaths
from
West
Fargo's
nutrition
department
and
then
our
own
greg
jefra,
who
was
our
brother
relatively
new
operations
manager
in
nutrition,
and
it
was
really
interesting
and
good,
is
a
very
full
theater,
probably
a
hundred
to
200
people
in
there
who
learned
about
the
issues
around
serving
thousands
of
hot,
nutritious
meals
to
our
students
every
day.
R
Some
discussions
about
food
waste,
food
safety
and
the
cost
of
the
program
and
I
I
was
really
impressed
by
mr.
garrow's
passion
for
feeding
our
kids,
good,
fresh
lunches
and
related
to
that.
There's
been
some
considerations
about
the
cost
of
our
lunches
and
the
school
debt.
That's
building
up
and
so
I
would
encourage
people
to
be
aware
of
potentially
attend
a
fundraiser.
This
coming
Sunday
from
4:00
to
7:00
p.m.
at
the
sanctuary.
R
Events
Center,
it's
called
lunch
aid,
Fargo
bands
for
school
kids
and
there
will
be
bands
playing
as
a
$10
donation
at
the
door
and
the
donations
are
being
coordinated
by
our
own
foundation
so
that
all
of
the
donations
go
to
the
cause
and
then
is
being
picked
out
by
by
middlemen.
So
that's
my
report.
Thank
you.
Thank.
A
I
Was
at
governance
as
well
on
the
29th
and
last
Friday
observed
at
planning
this
morning
at
the
chamber,
eggs
and
issues
and
I
mentioned
to
Roo,
Park
and
Ann
Marie,
and
fabulous
presentation
by
all
three
superintendents
and
really
really
great
questions
from
folks
in
attendance,
and
when
we
have
someone
that
says
what
can
we
do
for
you
I
think
that's
pretty
great!
We
don't
get
that
very
often.
So.
In
fact,
none
of
the
presenters
do
I.
I
I
Is
that
what
it
is,
and
there
is
I
did
send
a
message
to
Betsy
regarding
a
dutiful
for
the
communications
committee,
so
that
we
can
make
sure
that
we
have
our
meeting
and
do
some
work
before
we
have
our
next
board
meeting
on
the
twenty.
Fourth,
I
wanted
to
mention
in
regard
to
the
incident
at
Fargo
North,
the
the
safety
incidents
that
we've
heard
about
in
our
community.
I
Just
I,
full
disclosure
I
have
two
students,
I've
of
my
own
children
at
Fargo
North,
and
so
we
did
receive
a
phone
call
that
evening,
with
a
recording
by
mr.
Dahlin
and
email
and
just
wanted
to
say.
I
was
very
impressed
with
what
the
timing
and
with
wording
the
verbage
that
was
used.
Just
you
know,
considering
that
situation
boy,
there
was
a
lot
of
work
that
that
the
folks
up
there
took
on
or
had
to
take
on
and
and
here
at
the
district
level.
So
thank
you
very
much
for
that.
I
D
J
Christie
I
was
at
eggs
and
issues
this
morning
and
I
thought
the
format
change
was
exceptional.
It
was
very
refreshing
and
much
more
enjoyable
for
listening
and
I.
Think
it's
nice
to
see
those
comparisons
between
the
communities,
because
we
are
so
similar.
I
had
planning
on
the
6th
and
I
planned
to
be
handing
out
ice
cream
tomorrow.
Around
Thursday.
B
Last
week,
I
was
out
in
Bismarck
for
a
day
on
the
pre
k12
visioning
steering
committee
or
major
focus
at
that
meeting
was
really
looking
at
the
Native
American
population
in
our
state.
Looking
at
the
issues
that
they're
facing
really
trying
to
identify
what
those
issues
are
because
they
are
much
different
in
different
parts
of
the
state.
B
Clearly,
mobility
wasn't
even
on
anybody's
list
out
there
until
I
brought
it
up
and
said.
Do
you
have
mobility
data
on
how
long
the
average
student
stays
in
whatever
district
they're
at
and
how
many
times
they
might
be
moving
so
they're
gonna
do
a
little
more
research
to
try
and
really
identify
what
are
things
that
we,
as
a
state
could
put
in
policy
to
hopefully
try
to
narrow
the
achievement
gap
farther
and
I'm
happy
to
tell
you.
We
actually
have
narrowed
it
in
the
last
two
years
and
I.
Think
by
all
the
data
I
saw.
B
North
Dakota
is
number
two
in
the
nation.
In
terms
of
narrowing
the
gap
from
Native
American
students
to
the
rest
of
the
general
population
behind
Oklahoma,
which
has
a
huge
huge
Indian
nation,
so
I
think
we're
doing
some
things
right
in
our
state,
but
we
have
a
long
way
to
go
still,
but
we
really
need
to
identify
what
are
the
issues
these
students
are
facing
and
then
what
can
we
do
to
address
those
issues?
If
we
can
and
I
think
our
next
meeting
is
scheduled
for
November,
they
haven't
given
a
hard
date.
B
I
was
at
governance,
I
was
at
planning
and
for
those
of
you
on
GAC,
we
you
might
want
to
hold
October
8th.
That
will
be
a
Tuesday.
We
have
a
school
board
meeting
that
day
right
now.
We're
tentatively
thinking
7:30
in
the
morning
on
October
8th
will
be
our
first
GAC
committee
meeting
of
this
particular
school
year.
A
Thank
you
good
reports.
My
report
meetings
that
I
were
at
with
that
we're
governance.
We
had
a
special
board
meeting
on
September
4th
September
6th
was
a
planning
meeting
in
September
10th,
which
was
this
morning.
I
was
at
the
chamber
breakfast
as
well.
I
can't
say
anything
any
better
than
everybody
else
that
was
there.
It
was
an
excellent
breakfast
tonight.
I
feel
that
a
lot
of
great
comments
I
have
been
in
contact,
my
liaison
schools,
in
fact,
I'm
working
with
Horace
Mann
and
coordinating
I
scholastic
book
donation
from
the
Masonic
Lodge.
A
A
Some
highlights
that
we
had
there
were
to
have
the
communications
committee
review
the
reporting
form
for
NSBA
reports,
so
we
had
some
some
healthy
discussion
over
that
and
then
that
committee
also
directed
me
to
propose
some
new
language
for
the
School
Liaison
philosophy,
so
I
know
you'll,
be
waiting
on
the
edge
of
your
seats
for
that
and
that
will
be
presented
at
the
next
Governance
Committee
and,
of
course,
anne-marie
will
help
me.
I
can't
take
credit
for
all
of
that.
A
Back
back
to
the
president's
report,
the
typed
version
we
talked
about
the
social
sounds
like
we'll:
have
a
good
turnout
and
then
the
upcoming
meetings
are
all
there
listed
for
your
viewing
and
events.
I
think
I
think
we're
good
to
go
any
other
questions
on
the
reports.
Jim
with
it
with
a
native
achievement
gap
can
are
those
reports
available
through
dpi?
Do
you
feel
I.
