D
I
I
think
our
area
in
professional
development
is
no
different
than
virtually
everything
else
in
the
world
right
now,
where
we've
had
a
pretty
big
or
significant
impact
that
covet
has
cost
caused,
and
we
really
are
rethinking
every
thought.
A
lot
of
the
approaches
to
learning,
just
like
everybody
else
in
our
system
right
and
so
some
of
those
things
have
been
have
been
really
positive.
And,
honestly
again,
I
think
we've
learned
some
things
to
think
wow.
I
mean
this
really
works
better
and,
and
probably
will
continue
that
way.
D
Sometimes
that
was
a
mix
of
like
a
blended
learning
model,
so
there'd
be
a
mix
of
kind
of
asynchronous
content
that
teachers
would
watch
on
their
own
and
then
attend
a
synchronous
session
and
just
a
variety
of
different
things
over
the
course
of
the
summer,
but
even
all
of
our
curriculum
writing
everything
was
done
over
zoom
and
and
really
worked.
Well,
I
think,
and
in
some
ways
was
more
accessible
to
teachers
that
maybe
wouldn't
have
been
able
to
go
in
person.
D
So
so
I
appreciate
having
been
able
to
work
with
a
team
to
really
accomplish
that,
because
I
think
we
didn't.
If
I
were
to
look
back
at
the
numbers,
I
don't
think
we
would
see
a
significant
dip
in
our
participation,
despite
all
of
the
other
craziness
that
was
going
on
over
the
course
of
the
summer.
So
those
things
were
really
good.
One
of
the
events
that
we
this
was
our
second
year
only.
D
We
call
it
the
teaching
and
learning
academy
and
that
we
do
the
week
before
the
contract
begins.
So
before
teachers
are
back
and
we've
done
it
that
way
just
to
really
try
to
create
an
a
time
where
teachers
can
count
on
this.
This
is
a
time
we'll
have
some
professional
development
available
might
be
for
some
new
stuff.
That's
coming
that
year
might
be
just
time
with
their
coarselight
team,
but
that
they
kind
of
can
plan
for
it
rather
than
having
that
be
a
moving
target
over
the
summer
and
so
last
year.
D
We
did
that
for
two
days
and
this
year
we
decided
to
expand
it
to
four
days
and
we
had
over
300
well,
362
participants
so
doubled
what
we
had
done
the
year
before
and
just
really
had
great
participation
again,
almost
every
session
over
zoom.
You
know,
of
course,
one
of
the
other
advantages
of
doing
those
things
online
is
you
can
record
them,
and
so
we
had
some
things
like
that
too,
where
teachers
couldn't
be
there
at
that
time,
but
we're
able
to
watch
the
recording
later.
D
So
those
are
all
really
good
things
that
I
think
we're
continuing
to
learn
about,
and
one
of
your
handouts
is
about
our
back
to
school
or
it
shows
you
an
image
of
our
back
to
school
professional
development.
So
it
just
is
titled
fps
back
to
school
pd,
and
it's
just
it.
This
isn't
in
its
entirety.
But
I
want
to
just
give
you
a
picture
of
what
that
looked
like,
and
so
we
talked
a
lot
as
a
team
about
what
we
had
originally
planned
to
do.
D
The
three
days
that
teachers
were
back
before
kids
started
in
class,
and
then
we
like
a
lot
of
other
plans,
kind
of
ripped
all
that
up
and
started
over
and
said.
Okay,
we're
gonna
do
this
differently
and
we
ended
up
having
more
days,
of
course,
because
we,
because
you
all
were
able
to
push
that
timeline
back
for
students
to
start,
and
it
was,
I
think
most
teachers
would
say.
D
Those
were
all
things
they
had
to
complete
before
students
started
in
school,
but
they
had
that
whole
time
to
really
flex
how
they
were
going
to
do
that,
so
that
gave
them
a
lot
of
autonomy
in
when
they
could
meet
with
their
own
grade
level
teams
and
at
their
building
and
with
parents.
I
think
we
did
a
lot
of
things
just
touching
base
with
parents
and
doing
some
assessment
before
school
started.
So
I
I
know
our
teachers
really
appreciated
having
that
time
and
then
they
were
able
to
the.
D
That
has
the
report
above
that
are
just
some
examples
of
the
kinds
of
things
that
we've
been
able
to
include
in
some
of
our
professional
development
that
we've
we've
put
online.
So
so
that
was
it's
been
exciting
and
I
think
you
know
like
teachers.
Those
of
us
who
lead
professional
development
have
had
to
develop
a
new
skill
set
for
how
to
deliver
it,
and
you
know
probably
the
the
most
difficult
part
of
that,
and
I'm
sure
teachers
would
say
this
too
is
relationship
building.
And
how
do
you?
D
How
do
you
do
that
online
and
it
is
super
challenging
it?
You
know
there
are
just
some
things
you
can't
do
as
well
online
and
yet
there's
lots
of
stuff.
You
can
do
even
better,
and
so
I
think,
we're
just
kind
of
trying
to
find
the
right
mix
of
those
two
things
so
that
that's
probably
brings
us
up
to
date
with
pd.
D
You
know.
So,
as
as
educators,
we
want
to
fix
things
and
our
students
have
a
lot
of
things
that
we
want
to
learn
more
about.
So
how
we
can
help
them
and
all
of
that
just
really
takes
a
lot
of
time,
and
so,
as
we
look
across
the
system
and
we
in
fact
we
were
missing-
I
were
just
talking
about
this.
How
do
we
really
grab
onto
the
really
big
rocks
and
hold
on
to
them
long
enough?
D
So
we
can
implement
them
with
fidelity
and
see
the
impact
of
that,
and
I
think
that's
always
been
our
challenge,
and
it
continues
to
be
probably
more
so
today
than
even
10
years
ago,
and
so
that's
one
of
the
things
that
you
know
as
I
I
reflect
on
comments,
I
think
pd
sometimes
gets
a
bad
rap.
You
know
I
see
that
in
teacher
negotiations
and
other
conversations
with
teachers
where
they're
kind
of
frustrated
about
it
and
in
general
I
don't
think
it's
the
pd.
I
think
it
is
the.
D
I
just
really
want
to
make
sure
this
is
worth
the
time,
because
I
want
to
see
the
results
right
and
so
so
that
continues
to
be
challenging.
For
us
and
and
one
of
the
things.
I
guess
I
really
appreciate
about
what
our
our
cabinet
has
done.
Is
they
really
are
having
good
conversations
about
aligning
our
school
improvement
efforts
across
the
board
and
we're
doing
that
more
today
than
we
probably
ever
have
been?
So
I
just
I
appreciate
that
very
much
because
it's
it
very.
D
It
really
supports
that
idea
of
learning
deeply
and
being
able
to
apply
the
learning.
So
just
a
couple
other
quick
things
to
mention,
then
I'll
take
questions
so
in
the
future,
a
couple
of
things
that
are
are
coming
down
the
pike
one.
We
are
we're
going
to
continue
with
this
personalized
learning
kind
of
model
and
I
think,
certainly
team-based
learning
when
our
teachers
can
learn
together
in
their
course
alike,
teams
or
their
plc
teams,
that's
probably
their
best
learning,
learning
from
each
other
and
studying
together,
reflecting
together.
D
Who
will
continue
that
and
then
we're.
We
are
looking
to
purchase
a
learning
management
system
to
support
some
of
this,
because
we
have
done
a
lot
of
things
with
google
and
other
systems
that
we
have
available
to
us,
but
I
think
we're
really
looking
to
to
have
that
be
more
sustainable
over
time
and
then,
as
part
of
that,
getting
to
the
implementation
piece.
D
If
you
will,
I
don't
know
if
that's
where
we'll
land
on
the
on
the
name,
but
the
idea
that
I
actually
am
showing
evidence
of
my
learning
and
so
really
modeling
the
same
practice
we'd
like
to
see
in
the
classroom
but
through
the
notion
of
you
know
what
evidence
would
I
show
that
I
learned
this
and
I'm
applying
it
now.
So
that's
it.
E
E
D
D
But
there's
a
learning
curve
right
to
do
that,
and
so
that
wouldn't
have
been
the
first
day
they
were
home
in
the
hybrid
setting.
Knowing
how
to
do
that.
Well,
we
also
did
have
our
library
teams
create
some
videos
that
are
on
our
website
for
families
also
to
learn
how
to
use
some
of
those
tools
if
they
needed
support
when
their
student
was
learning
as
well.
But
that
really
was
the
hope
is
that
our
teachers
would
use
them
in
class
so
that
that
learning
would
extend
to
home.
F
D
E
G
They
will
that
was
one
of
the
the
pieces.
That
was
one
of
the
biggest
challenges
because,
as
you
know,
and
we'll
talk
about
later
today,
too,
with
a
lot
of
the
covet
grants
that
we've
gotten
sustainability
becomes
an
issue.
However,
we
as
a
district
did
feel
that
that
investment
in
technology
and
continuing
with
that
glass
paper
project,
all
the
way
down
to
kindergarten
was
something
that
was
important
so
bill,
and
his
team
have
worked
tremendously
hard
to
make
sure
that
we
can
continue
that
even
during
non-clover.
E
G
We
now
we
we
purchased
the
ipads
and
and
the
chromebooks,
so
they
are
our
property.
But
then,
when
you,
when
you
make
an
investment
in
technology
of
that
nature,
you're
also
investing
in
the
maintenance
and
the
recycle
schedule
that
you're
going
to
use
so
there's
a
lot
to
it
and
and
our
yeah
so
kudos
again
to
our
it
team.
I
think,
year
after
year
they
they
continue
to
work
with
their
budget
and
stretch
as
far
as
they
can.
A
H
I
don't
have
a
question
but
jodell
I
do
want
to
thank
you.
This
was
a
great
presentation
and
I
am
encouraged
to
hear
in
a
year
that
everything
else
is
wacky
and
off
keel,
that
our
teachers
felt
that
they
had
options
for
additional
education
and
they're
excited
to
implement
them.
That
matters.
It
isn't
just
having
the
educational
opportunity
but
being
able
to
utilize
it
as
well,
and
I'm
glad
they
had
the
time
and
the
access
to
the
right
tools
to
be
able
to
connect
them.
That's
really
important,
so
thank
you.
B
Thank
you
as
well
jodel,
just
spinning
off
of
what
david
said.
I
would
be
really
interested
to
know
about
the
obsolescence
plan
and
the
cycles
for
some
of
this
technology.
I
know
we've
had
them
in
the
past,
we
put
them
off
and
we
have
budget
issues.
But
what
is
the
ideal
obsolescence
cycle?
I
don't
need
the
answer
now,
but
unless
you
have
it,
but
I
think
that's
important
for
future
sustainability
in
our
budgets.
F
A
I
I
I
So
I'm
going
to
go
through
a
few
of
the
things
that
I've
done
in
this
last
year.
Since
I
last
spoke
to
the
board,
some
of
it
is
repetitive
from
last
year
and
will
be
the
same
going
forward
with
my
job
at
fargo,
public
schools,
and
some
of
it
is
new,
or
some
of
it
is
a
training,
push
that
I
had
in
the
last
year.
So
I'll
go
through.
All
of
that
with
you,
the
first
thing
I'm
going
to
talk
about
is
our
stop.
I
The
bleed
grant
that
we
were
awarded
through
the
state
homeland
security
grant
program.
Stop.
The
bleed
is
a
national
effort
to
encourage
bystanders
to
become
trained
and
empowered
to
help
in
a
bleeding
emergency.
So
my
idea
for
this
grant
was
the
fact
that
last
year's
training
push
was
the
run,
hide
fight,
lockdown
or
active
threat
scenario.
I
We
also
had
jesse
johnners.
Stop
the
threat,
stop
the
bleed
initiative
in
cass
county.
So
I
thought
it
was
a
really
good
time
to
play
off
of
that
and
teach
our
building
staff
how
they
would
respond
in
any
sort
of
bleeding
emergency,
which
could
be
an
active
threat
which
could
be
in
their
personal
lives.
Coming
across
a
car
accident
could
happen
in
wood
shop.
There
are
a
lot
of
different
scenarios
where
things
can
turn
dangerous
in
a
matter
of
seconds,
so
we
did
receive
eighty
six
thousand
dollars
and
change.
I
We
also
use
that
money
to
purchase
training
kits
so
that
we
can
go
forward
and
continue
training
our
staff
and
then
the
rest
of
the
money.
I
was
hoping
to
use
on
staff
training,
so
staff
could
be
paid
to
come
to
professional
development
because
covet
hit
that
wiped
out
some
of
our
training
opportunities.
I
I
Since
I
last
spoke
to
you
guys,
I
did
speak
about
the
mutual
aid
agreements
we
have
with
our
community
partners,
whether
that
be
churches
or
local
businesses
near
our
schools.
Those
mutual
aid
agreements
were
enacted
to
help
us
in
sheltering
situations.
So
if
there's
a
fire
at
a
school
and
it's
in
the
dead
of
winter,
we
don't
want
our
kids
and
our
staff
standing
outside
in
the
cold.
We
would
want
them
to
shelter
somewhere
until
we
could
get
buses
to
them.
I
So
if
that
business
or
church
or
whatever
it
may
be,
needs
a
short-term
sheltering
arrangement,
we
offer
that
as
well
that
came
into
play
in
january.
I
think
it
was
february
when
elam
had
their
fire,
so
we
did
house
the
111
residents
at
eagles
elementary
and
they
were
out
of
there
by
about
3
or
4.
Am
I
can't
quite
remember,
but
we
did
have
to
wait
for
the
state
to
find
new,
long-term
care
facilities
for
each
resident
and
that's
what
took
so
long.
I
We
had
our
yearly
wsi
audit,
workforce
safety
and
insurance,
which
is
conducted
by
north
dakota,
workforce
safety
and
insurance.
There
were
no
issues
on
our
on
our
yearly
audit.
That's
pretty
typical.
We
usually
have
very
good
records
with
workforce
safety
and
insurance.
Our
audits
are
compiled
very
well,
so
there
are
no
real
red
flags
for
wsi.
I
Bert
training
is
the
training
that
I
decided
to
push
this
last
year.
Bert
stands
for
building
emergency
response
teams,
so
I
decided
to
make
that
a
training
initiative
this
last
year,
because
I
felt
that
our
building
emergency
response
teams
were
not
as
effective
as
they
could
be.
So
what
I
did
for
the
training
is
each
school
had
a
training
session
with
me.
I
We
went
through
the
roles
and
responsibilities
on
the
team,
so
things
such
as
the
incident
commander,
the
liaison
officer,
the
logistics
coordinator,
just
different
pieces
of
who
those
positions
were
and
what
their
expectations
are
in
an
emergency
after
their
roles
and
responsibilities
were
addressed
and
everyone
was
familiar
with
their
positions.
I
did
go
through
a
tabletop
exercise
with
those
individuals
and
I
brought
forward
a
bunch
of
scenarios
that
all
happened
in
one
day.
The
staff
thought
this
was
the
worst
day
ever
turns
out.
Kovad
then
hit.
I
I
I
We
acquired
volunteers
for
our
spring
meal
distribution.
A
lot
of
those
were
the
peras
or
occasionally
building
teachers
or
principals
that
went
along.
That
is,
probably
you
know,
not
the
greatest
or
most
ideal
option
going
forward,
but
we
were
able
to
make
that
work
for
the
spring
meal
distribution
and
the
most
important
thing
was.
We
got
the
kids
fed.
I
We
continue
to
find
new
ppe
and
we
continue
to
acquire
different
options
for
staff
and
try
to
keep
up
with
the
needs
that
we
have
and
the
requests
from
the
students
and
staff
of
fargo
public
schools
so
every
day
there's
something
new
where
we
didn't.
Think
of
that,
or
maybe
one
thing
isn't
working
well
enough
and
we
need
to
explore
other
options
and
try
a
different
form
of
ppe.
I
We
currently
are
working
to
acquire
more
n95
respirators.
We
do
have
a
fairly
significant
amount
acquired
and
I
have
set
up
n95
respirator
fittings
for
friday,
the
20th
of
november
december
4th
and
december
11th.
I
think
it
is
so
that
any
staff
member
that
feels
that
they
need
or
want
an
n95
can
be
fitted
for
one.
The
big
task
behind
that
is
due
to
osha
guidelines.
I
We
have
to
make
sure
that
all
staff
are
medically
cleared,
so
we
have
coordinated
with
fargo
cast
public
health
to
have
a
nurse
there
to
medically
clear
these
individuals
based
off
of
a
medical
questionnaire
from
there.
We
are
working
with
our
newly
hired
health
techs
to
help
fit
test
people,
so
we
can
get
as
many
done
as
possible.
I
We
have
fire
inspections,
that's
a
yearly
thing
for
me,
so
our
fargo
fire
department
will
go
through
all
of
our
buildings
and
figure
out.
If
everything
is
up
to
code,
it's
very
common
to
have
violations
most
of
our
well.
All
of
our
violations
are
very
minor
a
lot
of
times.
It's
things
like
extension
cords,
which
extension
cords
are
not
supposed
to
be
used
as
a
permanent
fixture,
so
removing
those.
I
Sometimes
we
have
power
strips
plugged
into
each
other,
which
they
need
to
be
plugged
directly
into
the
wall
heaters
being
plugged
into
power
strips
those
need
to
be
plugged
directly
into
the
wall
as
well.
So
when
the
fire
department
comes
through
and
gives
us
those,
we
send
out
work
orders
to
those
buildings
to
make
those
corrections,
and
then
we
send
the
work
order,
corrections
into
the
fire
department
to
let
them
know
that
those
are
all
corrected
we
have
not
had
permits
withheld
from
us
ever.
I
We
have
a
very
good
working
relationship
with
the
fire
department,
so
it's
pretty
straightforward
on
the
fire
inspection
side
of
things,
contact
tracing
has
become
a
very
large
part
of
my
job.
Hence
david
he's
been
a
godsend
for
contact
racing.
I
receive
calls
from
fargo
cast
on
every
case.
We
have
students
or
staff
within
our
buildings
from
there.
A
F
H
Thank
you,
rebecca
and,
and
thank
you
mackenzie
for
all
of
this.
I
I
echo
brian's
thoughts.
I
was
by
the
time
we
got
done.
I'm
like
holy
moly
she's
got
a
lot
on
her
plate,
so
bless
your
heart
and
you're
doing
a
great
job.
I
do
have
a
couple
of
quick
questions
just
for
information's
sake,
the
stop
the
bleed
grant,
since
there
are
dollars
still
available
there.
You
had
mentioned
trying
to
extend
it,
I'm
wondering
if
they
don't
extend
it.
I
Yeah,
so
we
cannot
do
it
over
zoom.
I
have
looked
into
that.
We
could
look
at
doing
social
distance
training.
The
I
haven't
looked
too
much
into.
Who
would
do
the
training
we
can
have
law
enforcement?
Do
it?
Usually
I
partner
up
with
one
of
the
nurses
from
essentia
she's
been
really
good,
with
helping
us
do
training,
but
I
wouldn't
want
to
bother
her
at
this
time
because
of
what's
going
on
in
the
hospitals.
I
G
Sure
I
think
I
just
wanted
to
first
say
thank
you
to
mackenzie
and
then
thank
you
to
the
board
when
I
I
think
in
2018,
when
I
kind
of
started
in
my
role.
Actually
right
after
I
was
named
superintendent,
my
predecessor
and
the
previous
cabinet,
I
think,
had
had
decided
that
this
was
kind
of
a
position.
G
Our
district
needed
and
last
year
was
the
first
year
that
we
had
mackenzie
present
to
kind
of
say
this
is
a
new
department
in
our
district
and
what
they're
doing
clearly
from
from
this
year
on
you
could
see
that
I
don't
think
the
work
ever
stops
and-
and
I
think
that
that's
a
testament
to
mckenzie,
though
she
started
her
presentation,
saying
that
no
longer
being
a
direct
report
to
me
is
a
nice
change
which
I
agree
with.
I
I
think
one
would
recognize
that
mckinsey
works
in
a
position.
G
G
J
Up
yeah,
thank
you
I'll.
Just
extend
on
that
by
saying
that
mckinsey
serves
on
our
covet
19
instructional
plan
committee,
so
she
meets
at
6
30
a.m.
Every
two
weeks
with
us
and
her
voice
is
very
valuable.
So
we
we
just
I
thank
you
so
much
for
the
work
you
do
she
pretty
much
reports
to
us.
The
district
level
data
that's
happening
and
it
blows
my
mind
that
sometimes
she
has
to
say
this.
Data
is
from
10
am
friday
and
it's
already
dramatically
changed.
J
F
B
I
Yeah
we
have
those
contingency
plans
and
that
would
be
part
of
our
mou
as
well.
Anytime,
a
building
would
become
inhabitable
inhabitable.
We
would
use
those
mous.
We
also
do
have
our
reunification
plans
in
place.
So
those
short-term
sheltering
agreements
are
just
a
tiny
part
of
that
reunification
plan
in
general.
B
I
I
Staff
data
is
not
under
me
that
would
be
under
hr
at
the
current
moment.
So
that
would
be
a
question
for
doug.
I
don't
have
my
computer
in
front
of
me,
so
I
can't
look
up
how
many
positive
cases
there
are.
But
yes,
I
do
have
that
data
in
our
hub
tracking
cases
are
trending
up,
because
the
whole
city
is
trending
up.
A
lot
of
what
I
see
is
there
are
a
lot
of
household
contacts.
E
I
G
And
just
announcement
for
I
guess
for
david
and
for
everyone
else
as
well,
although
I
think
dr
newman
alluded
to
this-
the
numbers
change,
because
sometimes
we
get
cases
after
the
fact
and
then
sometimes
we
get
cases
before
that.
We
that
we
weren't
aware
of
at
the
time,
but
every
friday
at
10
o'clock
is
the
snapshot
that
we
use
so
on
the
fargo
public
schools
website.
If
you
click
on
the
kovid
19
webpage,
we
do
have
all
of
our
data
as
of
every
friday
at
10
a.m.
A
A
G
Along
with
all
the
other
conversations
we
have
around
with
the
other
kova
dollars
that
we're
spending,
that
would
be
a
budget
conversation
that
we
have
when
we
get
to
that
process.
But
as
of
right
now,
as
as
most
of
you
are
aware
that,
with
the
limitations
that
we've
had
with
a
lot
of
the
coveted
grants,
we've
had
to
hire
a
lot
of
fixed
terms,
positions
based
because
those
one
of
the
biggest
limitations,
not
limitations.
But
a
requirement
for
any
grant
is
that
you
can't
supplant
services
that
you
already
need.
G
H
A
I
I
G
F
A
Thank
you.
Anyone
have
any
other
questions
or
comments.
Well,
thank
you.
So
much
for
helping
to
keep
us
moving
along
in
a
safe
manner,
appreciate
your
work,
you're,
welcome
and
we're
doing
well
because
of
the
work
that
you
do
in
answer
to
your
earlier
question
about
how
we're
doing
okay.
The
next
item
is
fea
report.
I
don't
believe,
oh
kim
is
here
I'm
glad
you're
here
kim
welcome.
A
L
So
it's
very
exciting
and
we've
got
a
local
artist
that
is
making
them
special
mugs
that
are
one
of
a
kind
each
month,
so
they're
different
every
month,
and
it's
really
exciting
and
fun,
and
we
did
just
have
two
winners
for
october
and
our
esp
winner
was
julie.
Eiler
from
fargo
north
and
beth
thompson
was
our
teacher
winner
from
ben
franklin,
so
very
fun
and
the
principals
are
nice
enough
to
come
with
me
and
present
and
really
show
some
appreciation
to
their
staff.
So
it's
been
exciting.
F
J
Sure
I
didn't,
I
didn't
really
have
a
plan,
but
I
just
thought
that
I
I
always
take
notes
during
our
meetings,
so
I
just
thought
it
might
be
important
for
you
guys.
I
was
just
going
to
get
provide
you
with
a
printed
copy
of
what
happens
at
our
meetings
every
week.
If
that's
useful
to
you.
So
I
don't
know
if
you
want
me
to
just
read
through
this
document
or
rupak
might
have
a
more
formal
report,
but
basically
it
feels
like
an
eternity
ago.
J
It
was
only
a
week
ago,
but
at
our
meeting
we
reviewed
the
county
level
and
our
district
level
data
as
we
always
do.
We
looked
at
our
staff
leave
data
and
our
substitute
fill
rate
at
that
time.
Both
were
fairly
stable,
but
maybe
moving
in
in
the
wrong
direction.
So
definitely
something
we
wanted
to
keep
watching
and
then
that
meeting
was
really
dedicated
to
the
administration,
presenting
to
us
certain
protocols
and
potential
changes.
We
could
do
within
our
buildings
to
bring
kids
back
and
then
we
were
presented
with
a
timeline
to
return
to
in-person
learning.
J
This
is
was
a
very
tentative
plan
and
I
think
ultimately
it
would
be
a
phased-in
approach,
which
is
what
is
being
recommended
from
public
health.
So
I
wrote
out
the
timeline
here
for
you,
you
know
bringing
high
school-age
kids
back
is
much
more
challenging,
so
we
decided-
or
it
was
recommended.
They
continue
in
the
hybrid
fashion
until
january
19th,
which
is
technically
the
start
of
the
second
semester
and
then
middle
school.
J
And
then
the
thought
was
to
have
elementary
school
kids
return
five
days
a
week
now,
perhaps
starting
at
that
november
30th.
I
think
rupak.
You
might
talk
about
this
a
little
bit,
but
that
is
maybe
going
to
be
a
little
more
challenging
than
first
thought,
because,
due
to
the
nature
of
quarantine
and
people
being
positive
in
our
community,
it's
eight
to
ten
percent.
I
think
at
any
given
time
of
our
students
that
age
are
potentially
out
of
the
building,
so
our
teachers
really
need
that
time.
J
That
was
that
friday
to
do
distance,
education
and
communicate
like
still
communicate
with
those
those
people
on
fridays.
So
we
didn't
want
to
take
that
day
away
if
those
numbers
were
going
to
continue
to
be
high,
so
that
is
probably
to
be
continued
and
then
missy
idness
presented
us
with
some
of
the
issues
and
data
around
busing.
J
And
then
the
decision
was
made
to
have
mass,
be
worn
at
recess
due
to
a
multitude
of
factors.
Colder,
temperatures
and
kids
are
just
naturally
within
close
proximity
to
one
another
more
than
15
minutes,
so
that
mass
break
was
taken
away,
and
then
we
talked
about
some
tight
and
loose
things
that
are
working
and
maybe
could
could
use
a
little
more
help
in
our
district.
The
plan
at
that
time
was
to
have
brenton
who's.
J
G
Sure
I'll
just
kind
of
fill
in
some
of
the
gaps,
and
thank
you,
dr
newman,
for
some
updates
yeah.
We
we
are
working
with
fargo
cast
public
health,
both
brenton
esmeyer
who's,
the
state
epidemiologist
from
the
north
dakota
department
of
health
representing
fargo,
cass,
public
health
and
nancy
leeds
from
fargo
cast.
We
are
walking
at
least
one
elementary
one
middle
school
and
one
high
school
building,
so
they
can
see
school
in
action
and
see
what
mitigation
strategies
work
or
where
there
might
be
areas
for
opportunities
as
well.
G
I
know
they've
already
walked
the
elementary
building,
I'm
not
sure
where
they
are
with
the
middle
school
or
high
school
buildings
as
well,
but
I
think
that's
going
to
be
very
valuable
and
I
know
that
they
would
at
least
with
the
elementary
school
that
they
walked.
They
were
very
pleased
with
the
mitigation
strategies
that
we
have
in
place
and
what
we're
seeing
you
know,
I
think
one
of
the
things
that
we
continue
to
struggle
with
is
we
have
based
on
at
least
just
the
data.
So
far
where
we
haven't
seen
spread
within
our
schools.
G
We
do
feel
that
schools
are
safe
place
or
leaves
us
a
guidance
that
we're
being
given
right
now.
However,
the
community
rate
is
spiking,
so
much
that
it
is
starting
to
significantly
impact
our
student
absenteeism
and
then
our
staff
rate
as
well
last
week,
was
the
first
time
where
we
we
were
upwards
of
33,
of
unfilled
sub
teacher
rates,
and
we
are
doing
everything
that
we
can
to
find
subs.
G
We
in
the
last
two
weeks
and
at
least
three
different
buildings
have
been
on
the
verge
of
having
to
transition
to
distance
learning
for
a
for
a
classroom,
if
not
a
building
because
of
the
sub
shortages,
and
we
were
in
a
situation
where,
fortunately,
we
had
one
a
colleague
principal
said:
I
have
a
family
member
that
might
be
able
to
sub
and
figure
out
a
couple
of
days
and
that's
how
we
were
able
to
make
it
work.
So
this
is
my
plea
to
the
community.
G
If
anyone
does
have
the
ability
to
substitute,
we
do
need
that,
and
you
know
now
we
are
really
the
pendulum
changes
every
single
day
and
that's
you
know
dr
newman
talked
about
that.
That's
what
happens
with
data
and
science,
so
we
started
the
school
year,
not
knowing
the
correlation
between
the
community
transition
rate
and
the
spread
in
schools
and
with
the
data
set
that
we've
had
so
far
we're
starting
to
see
that
okay,
there's
no
spread
in
schools
and
schools
could
be
safer
for
our
students
and
staff
and
that's
the
guidance
we're
being
given.
G
So
that's
going
to
be
something
that
we
that
we
need
to
consider
looking
so
the
committee
at
their
next
meeting
on
november
16th,
just
for
consistency,
said
we're
going
to
make
a
determination
on
elementary
school
and
whatever
the
committee
decides
on
november.
16Th
that
will
hold
through
hold
true
at
least
until
january
19th.
So
we
can
be
consistent
for
the
rest
of
the
semester.
G
At
this
rate,
my
recommendation
to
the
committee
would
be
that
we
stay
at
four
days,
because
we,
when
you
have
multiple
hundreds,
elementary
students
that
are
absent
because
of
quarantine
or
isolation.
They
have
no
way
to
interact
with
their
teachers
or
get
that
work
without
that
distance
learning
dates.
These
are
the
group
of
students
that
are
outside
of
the
740
students
we
already
have
in
our
virtual
academy.
G
We
are
continuing
to
expand
our
virtual
academy
options
as
well.
We
actually
have,
I
think,
six
different
versions
now,
because
we
have
a
virtual
academy,
one
and
a
virtual
academy,
two
at
almost
all
of
our
levels
or
an
iteration
thereof.
So
that
is
something
that
we
need
to.
We
need
to
consider
as
well.
G
I
say
all
that,
because
we
live
in
a
world
of
unknown
with
kovid
we're
continuing
to
look
at
the
data,
we're
going
to
continue
to
adapt
and
one
of
the
things
that
hasn't
happened
and
continues
to
remain.
A
big
unknown
is,
is
an
extended
holiday
like
we're
about
to
approach
with
thanksgiving
and-
and
I
really
want
the
committee
to
know
that
in
fargo
public
schools
we're
committed
to
the
best
educational
experience
in
a
safe
manner
for
all
of
our
students
and
staff,
and
if
that
means
trying
to
work
towards
in-person
instruction,
we
absolutely
will.
G
But
if
the
committee
sees
a
significant
spike
because
of
outside
exposures
that
happen
during
thanksgiving
or
whatever
any
extended
holiday,
then
that
may
impact
this
timeline,
because
that's
data
that
we
can't
ignore
when
we
know
that
students
are
going
to
be
coming
back
after
the
christmas
break
as
well.
So
so
that's
my
plea
for
everyone
to
to
follow
the
the
recommendations
that
we're
getting
from
our
city
leaders,
our
public
health
leaders
as
well
to
to
do
their
part
to
slow
the
spread.
G
But
it
is
now
one
of
those
things
where
the
conversation
has
shifted,
where
we
don't
necessarily
need
to
talk
about
whether
schools
are
the
safest
or
not.
But
now
we
need
to
talk
about.
How
do
we
continue
or
maintain
the
ability
to
operate
with
the
staffing
shortages
shortages
that
we
have?
So
just
a
little
update
of
where
we
are
so
far.
B
Okay,
I
will
try
to
not
share
all
my
thoughts
here,
but
I'm
living
this.
I
am
doing
contact
tracing
for
my
staff.
It
is
miserable
the
the
parents
that
are
refusing
to
quarantine
their
children
are
very
difficult,
and
I
now
know
what
our
public
health
officials
are
up
against
the
names
that
I've
been
called
and
the
accusations
against
me
for
identifying
somebody.
That's
a
close
contact.
B
B
Going
back
to
the
teacher
that
I
have
been
had
isolating
since
march,
her
husband
is
out
in
the
community
bringing
back
and
she's
coveted.
She
is
covered
positive
by
staying
in
her
house
since
march.
So
this
is
it
takes
me
a
while
for
things
to
sink
into
my
brain
self-admittedly,
but
this
is
why
we
need
to
get
the
community
the
community
health
and
mitigation
efforts
in
place.
We
cannot,
we
can
only
control.
B
What's
in
our
sphere
of
control,
but
what
the
community
does
deeply
affects,
what
we
do
in
our
schools,
it
has
more
to
do
with.
Schools
are
safe
for
kids
that
are,
it
has
less
to
do
with.
Schools
are
safe
for
kids,
but
having
the
people
there,
we
need
our
adults
to
step
up,
and
if
they
value
public
education,
we
really
need
people
to
to
help
us.
We
know
that
public
education
is
gives
parents
a
place
to
have
their
kids,
and
this
is
secondary
to
education.
B
B
B
I
don't
think
I'm
over
sharing,
but
we
will
be
on
call
with
classrooms
being
shut
down,
not
just
for
a
day
but
for
two
weeks.
So
our
community
needs
to
be
ready
for
that,
because
it's
going
to
happen
unless
we
control
what's
happening
in
our
community,
sorry
to
sound
preachy,
but
I'm
learning
the
hard
way.
B
J
Thank
you
robin
tracy.
I
just
I
didn't
mean
to
go
over
you
david
sorry,
I
just
wanted
to,
while
that,
while
you
were
going,
I
want
to
extend
everything
that
you
both
just
said
to
health
care
workers.
I
know
I'm
here
tonight
as
a
school
board
member
and
I
will
try
and
stay
in
my
lane,
but
everything
that
you
have
both
said
is
so
applicable
to
our
hospitals
and
clinics.
J
Right
now
we
have
open
beds
and
we
do
have
quote
hospital
capacity,
but
we
don't
have
nurses
or
providers
to
care
for
them
because
of
quarantine
and
everything
that
you
all
have
said
about
education
is
also
applicable
to
our
health
care
sector.
So
please
I
will
echo
the
plea
as
much
as
I
can
wear
a
mask:
wash
your
hands
socially
distance.
Please
do
the
things
we're
asking
you
for
a
few
months
of
your
life,
so
we
can
all
get
back
to
the
things
that
we
love
and
the
things
that
we
want
to
do
so.
F
E
E
E
My
grandson
just
started
a
job
at
one
of
the
fast
food
places
he's
making
11.50
an
hour
after
a
few
months
he's
going
to
be
up
to
14
an
hour
they're,
paying
nearly
what
we
pay
for
in
eight
hours.
You
could
virtually
make
the
same
amount
working
in
taco
bell
that
you
could
being
a
fargo
substitute
teacher.
Let's
pay
them
more,
I
you
know
I'm
getting
so
frustrated
by
this,
I'm
ready!
E
G
G
Mr
andering
is
available,
I'm
going
to
ask
him
to
to
come
to
the
podium
and
just
talk
about
a
lot,
a
lot
of
kind
of
what
david
just
said,
because
that's
not
something
that
that's
definitely
something
that
we
have
looked
into.
We've
looked
into
pay
we've
looked
into
increased
benefits,
we've
looked
into
hiring
individuals
for
long-term
subbing
as
well,
which
does
increase
their
pay
in
in
a
sense
as
well,
and
then
we
continue
to
have
these
conversations
with
districts
across
the
state.
G
So,
even
if
we
were
to
go
up
to
the
maximum
pay
level
that
you
can
for
that
position
right
because
after
a
certain
point,
then
you're
creating
inequities
within
your
own
within
your
own
organization
of
a
position
where
it
should
be
paid
they're,
just
not
bodies
out
there
but
I'll.
Let
doug
talk
to
everything
that
we're
looking
at
trying
to
get
substitutes,
including
sometime
this
week,
spent
on
a
contracted
service
that
provides
substitutes,
but
the
research
that
we
found
with
the
districts
they
work
with.
M
So
is
this
all,
I
think
this
is
on
yeah.
Like
dr
gandhi
mentioned,
we
have
looked
at
a
contracted
service
to
see
if
that
would
help
us
out
what
we
did
find
in
researching
with
the
other
districts.
Is
they
certainly
do
offer
good
services,
but
really
the
issue
right
now
is
finding
the
actual
people
to
be
able
to
do
it
as
far
as
as
pay.
That
is
definitely
something
that
we
have
discussed
quite
a
bit.
M
We
do
engage
with
some
of
our
subs
in
any
normal
year
in
what
we
call
a
long-term
contract.
I
guess
is
what
I
would
call
it
and
that's
where
those
subs
are
brought
in.
If
somebody's
going
to
be
out,
maybe
it's
maternity
leave,
maybe
they
have
to
be
out.
The
teacher
has
to
be
out
for
any
other
reason
and
we
bring
in
that
long-term
sub
instead
of
paying
them
the
daily
rate.
M
M
What
we've
done
is
really
engage
in
that
even
more
now
using
cares
act
dollars
where
we
know
we're
going
to
have
subbing
opportunities
every
day,
whether
they're,
long-term
or
not.
There's
just
going
to
be
sub
opportunities
every
day,
so
we
have
actually
engaged
it's
either
12
or
13
long
term
subcontracts,
where
those
subs
are
paid
on
the
teacher's
salary
schedule
in
that
contract,
and
then
they
do
have
access
to
the
health,
insurance
and
prorated
leave
benefits.
M
M
What
our
issue
is
is
just
simply
finding
those
folks
to
actually
engage
in
that
right
now
for
different
reasons.
Subs
aren't
maybe
wanting
to
to
come
into
our
building
a
lot
of
our
retired
teachers
really
want
to
wait
it
out
until
kovit
settles
down
or
is
a
little
bit
over.
So
we
have
engaged
in
some
of
those
things
like
looking
at
a
contracted
service
and
long-term
contracts
where
they
do
get
more
pay
on
the
benefits.
G
That's
willing
to
take
that
traditionally
that
one
teacher
would
get
one
overload
for
that
one
class
and
then
so
we
have
that
scaled
up
where
there's
because
they're
taking
three
classes,
it's
not
one
to
one
because
of
hybrid
the
class
sizes
are
half
but
we're
providing
additional
compensation
that
way
as
well.
But
then
another
conversation
I
had
today
with
with
kim
and
meeting
with
fea
is
that
even
our
own
teachers,
everyone
has
just
so
much
going
on
it's
not
that
they
don't
want
to.
G
But
it's
hard
to
take
on
a
planning
to
give
up
your
planning
to
go.
Do
an
overload
for
a
sub
we're.
We
have
principals
that
are
almost
you
know,
reaching
out
every
single
day,
and
I
was
joking
with
the
principal
the
other
days.
Like
the
principal
said,
I
don't
even
want
to
walk
towards
a
teacher
in
my
building
because
they
think
that
they're
going
to
ask,
can
you
give
up
your
planning
for
for
to
sub
and
and
that's
just
a
situation
that
we're
at
right
now?
G
So
those
are
all
just
some
of
the
things
that
we
are
looking,
but
we
are
looking
at
increasing
pay
in
a
sense
or
providing
additional
compensation
to
increase
those
sub
opportunities,
the
level
that
we
can
and
it's
just
trying
to
find
the
bodies
and
then
another
piece
of
that
conversation
is
the
ability
to
fingerprint.
So
when
we
do
find
someone
that
wants
a
sub,
we
want
to
make
sure
that
there's
no
lag
in
fingerprinting.
G
Well,
we've
had
sporadic
on
and
off
with
the
company
that
we
contract
with
for
fingerprinting.
Fortunately,
we've
also
been
able
to
work
with
fargo
pd.
That's
provided
some
opportunities
as
well,
but
that
is
a
requirement
that
they
have
to
go
through
and
sometimes
that
lag
has
been
inhibited.
But
I
know
that
there's
some
local
legislators
and
other
folks
are
working
with
trying
to
help
us
out
with
that
piece
as
well.
So
these
are
all
just
pieces
of
the
puzzle
that
we're
dealing
with
trying
to
find
bodies.
F
E
I'm
I'm
not
ready
to
leave
this,
yet
you
said
that
you
have
to
be
careful
that
you
don't
create
any
inequities.
Covid
has
created
inequities
and
this
is
a
situation
that
we
have
to
deal
with
now
and
I
I'm
just
wondering
you
know
and
I'm
happy
to
know
you're
talking
about
it,
but
I
think
it's
time
for
some
action
and
I'm
wondering
what
would
happen.
For
instance,
if
there
were
to
be
a
an
ad
in
the
fargo
forum,
saying
fargo
public
schools
are
now
recruiting
substitute
teachers.
E
G
Yeah,
I'm
not
opposed.
I
think
what
I
would
just
ask
doug
is
because
I
think
what
what
I
heard
you
say,
doug
earlier,
is
that
the
long-term
contract
piece
that
we're
already
offering
brings
a
substitute
level
to
to
a
teacher
contract
equivalent.
So
I
think
if
we
were
going
to
go
and
pay
subs
higher
than
we're
paying
our
own
teachers,
that
would
be
a
violation
of
one
of
my
els.
So
I
would
need
that
direction
from
the
board.
F
C
In
brown,
county
and
south
dakota,
where
I'm
superintendent
we're
the
same
situation,
we
don't
have
staff
principals
having
to
do
it
substitute
at
different
spots
and
fair
amount.
The
same
thing
we
don't
have
subs,
we're
short
one
of
the
reasons
that
you
wrote.
This
plan
of
restart
was:
if
we
end
up
in
a
situation
where
we
don't
have
staff.
Well,
guess
what
we
have
to
go
to
virtual
then,
and
so
to
me.
C
E
I
did
okay
and
I
understand
dr
gandhi,
what
you
said
with
the
long-term
subs
you
said
they're
paid
on.
According
to
the
teacher
contract,
I
believe
starting
salary
right
now
is
about
forty
two
thousand
dollars.
Isn't
it
I'm
close?
That's
not
the
exact
amount,
191
days
that
breaks
down
to
220
dollars
a
day.
E
That's
why
I
picked
the
the
arbitrary
number
of
200
were
under
what
the
a
long
term
sub
would
be
getting
or
what
a
starting
teacher
would
get,
and
this
isn't
going
to
continue
into
2021
and
22
and
23
unless
kovit
never
gives
up.
I
mean
it's
something
that
we
we
have
to
do,
and
I
understand
about
our
we're
ready
for
virtual
learning,
but
we've
got
the
kids
in
school
and
it's
working
parents
seem
to
be
happier.
N
David
may
have
answered
actually
one
of
my
questions
and
that
was
in
the
salary
band.
What
does
that
look
like?
What
is
that
highest
wage
for
both
the
daily
rate
and
then
as
well
as
the
contracted,
so
that
we
would
have
a
better
understanding
of
what
that
is
and
to
stay
under
that
threshold
as
to
not
compete
with
current
contract?
N
M
M
You
know
if
you're,
a
parent,
if
you're
looking
for
work,
you
have
to
have
an
interim
sub
license
and
you
have
to
be
credentialed
to
do
so
or
a
regular
teaching
license.
But
please
come
and
join
us
check
out
our
website.
Here's!
How
we'll
pay
you
here's!
How
we'll
pay
you
if
you're
in
a
long-term
contract
with
us
so
we've
we
have
done
a
variety
of
different
types
of
recruiting.
We
just
posted
for
kind
of
refreshed
our
post,
we're
looking
for
long-term
subs.
We
had
a
couple
of
applicants,
we're
able
to
add.
M
We
originally
had
10
like
I
said,
we're
up
to
12
or
13
right
now.
We
can
look
at
those
efforts
again
and
see
as
long
as
we
have
the
funding
to
do
so.
But
again
we
are
kind
of
getting
to
that
point
where
we're
starting
to
run
into
really
the
people
piece.
Are
there
enough
people
out
there
that
actually
want
to
engage
with
us
in
this.
G
And
to
jennifer
and
david's
question,
I
think
we
can
get
that.
I
don't
have
that
with
me
right
now,
but
I
think
we
can
get
that
to
you.
So
we
can
get
where
the
teacher
salary
schedule
is
the
sub
to
give
you
that
range,
and
then
I
would
just
say:
we'd
have
to
consider
that
with
all
the
other
positions
in
our
in
our
district,
too
right
permanent
positions
versus
sub
positions,
but
get
that
breakdown
by
by
daily
rate
of
pay.
So
if
the
board
wants
to
take
a
look
at
that,
then
we
actually
can.
F
B
So
don't
forget,
the
subs
can
also
be
code.
Positive,
I
think
that's
a
piece.
There
was
some
legislation
a
couple
sessions
ago
about
allowing-
and
this
was
not
popular
with
the
union-
about
allowing
hard
to
fill
positions
to
be
paid
more
than
the
salary
schedule.
Does
that
come
into
play
here
with
subs?
Are
the
subs
included
under
contract?
B
B
M
Really
aren't
covered
under
what
our
teacher's
contract
is,
is
how
it's
written
out,
so
they
wouldn't
really
fall
under
those
types
of
provisions,
but
it
would
be
quite
honest.
I
don't
think
we
really
have
those
types
of
conversations
on.
Maybe
what
we
consider
like
a
hazard
pay
or
something
like
that.
N
M
G
G
B
I
want
to
add
it's
not
as
easy
as
hiring
a
sub
tuesday
and
they
can
be
to
work
on
on
wednesday,
and
I
have
personal
experience
with
the
background
checks.
Cbcu
is
backed
up.
They
don't
want
to
admit
it
anywhere
from
two
to
six
weeks
and
so
by
the
time
they
process
those
fingerprints
which
are
there
to
keep
our
kids
safe,
they're,
backed
up
just
like
everybody.
So
I
I
want
to
ask
for
some
grace
and
it's
it's
one
thing
to
hire
them.
B
N
N
So
I'm
looking
for
someone
to
help
me
understand
why
that
isn't
the
safer
place
versus
running
so
basically
being
in
our
buildings
instead
of
quarantining
all
of
these
individuals
and
and
the
additional
problems
that
that
keep
escalating
and
adding
up
as
a
result,
when
we
know
that
I
don't
know
what
the
percentage
is,
but
when
there
are
mitigation
strategies
in
place,
dramatic
decline
in
terms
of
transmission
rates.
So
if
somebody
could
maybe
provide
some
information
on
that,
that
would
be
great.
N
G
Yeah
I
mean,
I
think
this
is
the
challenge
I
said
earlier
that
we're
debating
with.
I
think
it
comes
down
to
one
thing
I
know
mackenzie
just
left,
but
I
would
have
to
go
back
to
the
data
and
lean
on
her
to
see
where
she's,
seeing
most
of
our
cases
for
her
staff
and
her
students,
and
she
said
that
she's
seeing
them
in
household
contacts.
G
So
it's
not
even
always
just
out
in
the
community
gathering,
but
it's
also
a
family
member
got
it
or
a
member
of
the
household
got
it
and
household
contacts
are
very
tough
for
us,
because
the
guidance
for
household
contact
is
can
be
up
to,
if
not
more
than
24
days,
because
if
someone
in
your
family
gets
it,
you
have
to
assume
that
they're
transmittable
entire
their
entire
incubation
period,
which
could
be
day
14
and
then
you're
out
for
24
days.
And
if
that's,
where
we're
seeing
the
majority
of
our
cases.
J
Newman
and
then
just
add
on
that,
it's
frustrating
because
you
know
where,
where
are
those
household
contacts
coming
from
well
they're
coming
from
our
community?
So
if
we
were
to
have
to
transition
to
distance
or
some
form
of
hybrid,
all
of
our
businesses
and
restaurants
and
things
are
still
open?
So
what
are
those
kids
and
stuff
going
to
do
when
they're
not
in
school
that
it?
Just
to
your
point?
N
Go
ahead
so
if
I
may
elaborate
on
that,
that's
kind
of
where
I
was
going
with
that
I'm
trying
to
understand.
Instead
of
quarantining,
150
teachers
that
may
have
been
exposed,
but
are
not
positive,
we've
implemented
mitigation
strategies.
We
have
the
ability
to
implement
even
more
additional
shields.
N
A
G
G
Do
the
essential
worker
designation
that
you
reference,
because
I
think
that
brings
household
contacts
into
the
school
where
you
now
do
have
students
that
are
in
person
that
can't
social
distance
and
that
person
has
been
in
a
lot
of
transmittable
moments
as
a
household
contact.
So
that
piece
I
don't
know
as
it
relates
to
the
students
that
are
out
there,
isn't
anything
else.
G
We
can
do
besides
stay
four
days
a
week,
because
you
have
teachers
that
are
contractually
working
their
full
day
and
then
we
have
to
give
them
their
planning
time
and
their
prep
time
student.
They
have.
Some
students
are
out
for
four
days.
Some
students
are
up
for
14.
Some
students
are
out
for
24
students.
When
a
student
goes
out
for
a
period
of
time.
You
can't
just
seamlessly
integrate
them
into
our
virtual
academies,
not
only
because
are
they
already
full,
but
those
are
working
completely
independent
and
that's
the
model,
because
you
can't
have
two
teachers.
G
Necessarily
you
can't
guarantee
that
they're
going
to
be
in
the
same
elo's
or
that's
not.
You
can't
just
kind
of
transfer
instruction
from
one
day
to
the
other
for
the
kids.
So
that's
why
we
need
that
four
days
a
week,
so
at
least
on
that
friday,
the
teachers
have
the
ability
to
plan
and
connect
with
the
students
that
are
out
and
and
that's
the
challenge
I
mean
logistically.
P
I
would
like
to
say
that
I
do
agree
with
you
on
the
four
days.
A
week
thing
I
think,
that's
pretty
important.
I
would
like
to
also
reiterate
robin's
plea
to
the
community
and
I
don't
think
you
were
being
all
that
preachy
after
listening
for
the
past
10
minutes
here
with
this
discussion
of
trying
to
find
subs
and
how
much
we're
going
to
pay
them
and
contract
tracing
and
and
anybody
out
there
in
the
community.
P
That's
watching
this,
you
can
see
how
complex
and
complicated
these
issues
are
and
then
stop
and
think
how
simple
it
is
literally
to
put
this
on
and
to
stay
home
when
you
don't
need
to
go
out
and
to
help
as
a
community
for
all
of
us,
so
that
we
can
get
back
to
normal,
and
I
just
would
like
to
reiterate
that.
Thank
you.
C
Still
going
to
go
back
to
my
point,
though,
and
in
our
plan
restart
plan,
if
we're
at
the
point
where
we're
going
to
have
to
go
virtual,
then
I
think
we
need
to
go
virtual,
and
but
that's
not
my
call,
that's
your
guys's
call
and-
and
I
would
question
if
we're
not
gonna
go
there,
why
did
we
write
it
and
I'm
not
trying
to
scare
people,
I'm
just
saying
that
we're
we're
there
we're
darn
close?
Aren't
we.
A
Is
that
enough
time
are
we
getting
to
the
point
where
they
need
more
time
to
make
contact
with
the
kids
that
aren't
able
to
be
in
school
so
as
being
in
school
for
k
through
five
four
days
a
week
too
much?
So
I
just
throw
that
out
for
the
committee
to
I
consider,
and
I
do
believe
that
we
have
a
plan
that
works.
A
A
I
support
the
work
that
the
committee
is
doing,
the
research
that
everyone
is
doing
that
serves
on
the
committee
and
that
that
brings
that
information
to
the
table
for
those
monday
morning
discussions
I've
been
listening
in
on
them,
I'm
aware
of
the
conversations
that
are
happening
and
if,
if
we
end
up,
I
don't
I
don't
know
where
we
go.
If
we
end
up
talking
about,
you
know
additional
budget
for
looking
at
changing
the
levels
of
pay
for
staffing.
A
If,
if
we
get
to
that
point,
but
I
believe
we
have
a
plan,
that's
set
in
front
of
us
that
the
district
can
utilize
first,
and
I
know
that
we
are.
We
want
desperately
for
all
of
the
kids
to
be
in
school
all
of
the
time,
but
we
might
just
be
at
at
a
stage
where
that
is
not
possible.
I
mean
it's
not
possible
right
now,
otherwise,
they'd
be
there,
and
there
are
also
examples
of
cities
and
communities
across
the
globe,
literally
that
are
prioritizing
education
over
some
other
other
entities.
A
I'm
not
saying
that
that
that
we
that
we
are
saying
close
down
stores
close
down.
Restaurants,
close
down
bars
that
kind
of
a
thing,
but
but
there
are
some
examples
around
that
shows
us
where
schools
and
the
education
of
our
kids
is
is
being
put
at
the
top
and
and
other
businesses
are
scaling
back
to
a
certain
extent,
whether
it's
closing
early
or
making
some
shifts.
G
G
I
I
do
fundamentally
believe
in
that
and
the
work
that
our
staff
put
forth
it.
Doesn't
it's
not
meant
to
replicate
or
duplicate
in-person
instruction,
it's
supposed
to
be
distance
learning
in
the
environment
of
distance
learning,
and
I
think
our
staff
do
a
great
job
of
doing
that
with
that
being
said,
I
think
everyone
wants
to
come
back
to
in
person,
but
this
conversation
and
the
challenge
that
we're
having
is
it's
not
unique
to
us?
G
If
you
look
at
this
at
the
national
scale
right
now,
and
you
even
just
look
at
the
largest
school
districts
across
the
nation,
you
have
boston,
public
schools.
Doing
one
thing
you
have
la
unified,
that's
been
supposed
to
come
back
second
semester,
you
have
houston
that
came
back
and
then
16
days
later,
half
of
their
schools
are
in
person
the
other
half
aren't.
Then
you
have
the
new
york
department
of
education
that
has
1
million
students
that
are
doing
something
else.
G
G
I
can
assure
you
that
every
single
day,
I'm
in
touch
with
the
superintendents
in
bismarck
grand
forks
in
west
fargo
and
moorhead
everyone's
having
these
same
conversations,
even
if
you
look
at
the
paper
around
jamestown
and
what
was
reported
to
yesterday,
the
same
level
of
conversation
that
we're
having.
So
I
think
you
know
it's
interesting.
What
one
of
the
committees
everything
is
a
juxtaposition
right.
G
You
have
to
weigh
several
factors
on
how
you
make
your
decision
when
we
started
in
august,
we
were
weighing
what
we
didn't
know
and
potential
risk
strategies
with
with
the
benefits
of
education
that
has
shifted
now
now,
because
we
know
that
our
schools
are
safe.
So
now,
now
what
we
have
to
weigh
is
knowing
that
schools
can
be
a
safer
environment
for
students
and
staff
and
provide
in-person
instruction,
which
is
the
goal.
G
G
Because
you
have
so
many
staff
shortages
or
do
you
continue
with
the
path
that
you've
created,
trying
to
get
to
in-person
instruction
because
you
know
that's
safer
and
then
just
do
it
on
a
rolling
basis
as
needed
with
the
schools
or
with
the
classroom
or
with
that
building?
That's
what
that
committee
now
has
to
decide.
G
So
so
that's
kind
of
what
we
have
to
deal
with,
and
I
think
the
committee
has
decided
at
this
point.
Let's
continue
with
with
our
plan,
but
know
that
we
might
have
classrooms
or
buildings
that
on
a
dime
have
to
flip
to
distance
learning
and
I'm
incredibly
proud
of
our
staff
because
they
have
the
ability
to
do
that.
G
I
don't
know
if
necessarily
switching
to
distance
learning
is
going
to
be
safer
for
all
of
our
staff
and
our
students,
but
if
that's
the
guidance
that
we,
if
we
get
the
guidance
from
fargo,
cast
public
health,
absolutely
that
would
be
my
recommendation.
So
I
think,
though
those
are
the
things
that
we
have
to
consider.
F
B
So
I
just
don't
want
us
to
forget
that
in
this
conversation
and
well
as
well,
there's
a
human
element
to
everything
that
we
do
and
it's
one
thing
about
following
the
data,
but
we
also
have
to
acknowledge.
We
need
to
take
care
of
our
staff
and,
yes,
our
kids
need
to
be
back
in
school.
I've
said
that
from
the
beginning,
but
they
can't
be
back
in
school
if
we
don't
have
healthy
staff.
A
G
Out
to
fargo
public
schools,
if
you're
interested
in
a
substitute
teaching
position
or
how
that
works.
But
no,
I
think,
we've
we've
talked
about
kovit
and
I
know
we're
adding
another
business
item
today.
So
thank
you
and
I'll
explain
that
when
we
do
for
allowing
that
on
the
board
agenda,
but
that's
it
for
my
time.
A
A
A
A
C
E
P
A
Yes,
motion
passes,
item
b
is
hvac
ionization
units
memo
64.,
and
it
was
pointed
out
to
me
that
the
memo
at
our
at
our
microphones
here
is
a
little
bit
different.
I
include
some
additional
information
than
what
was
sent
out
to
us,
so
this
is
the
memo
we
need
to
refer
to,
and
this
was
added
to
the
agenda
after
the
initial
agenda
was
published
friday.
Dr
gandhi
contacted
me
and
explained
that
there
was
the
necessity
to
include
this.
G
G
These
are
things
that
we
want
to
be
able
to
provide
to
provide
a
more
healthier
environment
in
our
schools.
I
want
to
be
very
cautious
and
make
sure
that
I
say
that
these
aren't
mitigation
strategies
that
are
going
to
prevent
kovid
19..
What
they
are
going
to
do
is
provide
a
healthier
environment
in
terms
of
air
quality
and
water
quality
for
our
students.
G
G
This
would
fall
under
the
fifth
bullet,
which
says
physical,
environmental
improvements
such
as
ventilation
systems.
So
that's
how
we
would
be
using
these
dollars
under
that
allowable
dollars,
guidance
and
then
the
paragraph
right
after
that
that
says,
in
addition
to
the
approval
of
the
resiliency
grants
dollars.
G
G
The
north
dakota
century
code
bid
process
takes
multiple
weeks
to
post
advertise,
go
through
the
bid
process
which
would
not
allow
us
to
meet
that
december
31st
deadline,
so
at
the
risk
of
not
losing
those
dollars.
We
are
asking
that
the
board
declare
this
one
of
those
times
where
we
can
call
this
an
emergency
fund.
We
did
check
with
our
our
legal
attorney
and
our
legal
attorney
said
that
this
should
be
allowed
under
the
emergency
provision
in
north
dakota
century
code,
as
long
as
the
school
board
says.
Yes,
we
do
agree
with
that
as
well.
F
A
G
N
G
Even
after
this,
we
are
able
to
fund
other
mitigation
strategies
using
that
full
pot
of
dollars
such
as
n95
mass
mckinsey
talked
about,
and
some
of
the
other
things
that
we're
going
to
talk
about
like
the
employees
that
we've
hired
on
fixed
terms.
But
yes,
it
would
cover
that
and
I'll.
Let
jackie
go
into
detail.
Q
Q
I
can't
without
knowing
exactly
where
riyada
can't
say
that
100
of
this
is
corpse,
some
of
it
may
roll
over
into
the
resiliency
and
then
we're
saving
our
initial
pot
of
money
that
received
we
received
for
esser
as
that
extends
for
another
year
and
a
half
yet.
So
I
hope
that
helps
clarify
a
little
bit.
E
E
There
must
be
other
companies
that
can
provide
this
service
besides
schwab.
I
it
bothers
me
that
we're
not
going
to
put
out
a
project
that
totals
almost
two
million
dollars
on
bids
and
I'm
questioning
why
we're
waiting
so
long
so
that
now
we're
up
against
the
wall-
and
I
understand
this
money
ends
on
december
30th,
but
it's
been
several
months
ago
that
we
first
discussed
the
value
of
having
these
uv
filters
put
in,
because
I
I
remember
asking
tracy.
I
was
well
aware
the
fact
that
that
uv
is
extremely
helpful
in
controlling
bacteria.
E
She
pointed
out
to
me
that
it
also
is
effective
in
controlling
viruses.
This
was
several
months
ago.
I
don't
know
why
it's
now,
the
november
meeting
before
we're
releasing.
If
we
would
put
this
out
on
bids
a
couple
of
months
ago,
we
would
have
plenty
of
time
to
receive
bids
and
give
any
company
that
was
interested
an
opportunity
to
do
this.
G
G
And
then
we
were
just
notified
a
couple
weeks
ago
about
the
resiliency
grant
and
that's
when
this
document
came
out
and
that's
when
the
resiliency
grant
said
well
now
retroactively.
You
can
use
your
corpse
dollars
for
these
six
things.
So
really
we
haven't
had
the
time
because
we
were
just
notified
of
these
funds
and
what
we
could
use
them
from
dpi
within
the
last
couple
weeks.
O
Now,
that
being
said,
that's
just
the
material
okay.
If
you're
looking
at
vendors
for
who's
going
to
do
the
installation
we're
looking
at
between
five
to
eight
vendors
as
well,
so
that'd
be
different
vendors
throughout
the
fargo-moorhead
area.
That
would
be
installing
these
for
us
as
well.
So,
but
that's
why
we're
looking
at
schwab.
E
B
Oh
well,
thank
you
for
for
mentioning
that
these
grants
are
so
prescriptive
and
theirs
have
such
a
short
timeline
for
turnaround.
You
have
to
write
the
check
prior
to
the
the
that
the
deadline,
and
I
have
had
many
projects,
millions
of
dollars
worth
of
projects
and
grants
that
we
have
not
been
able
to
build
out
what
are
completely
against
our
policies,
but
if
we
don't
use
it
we're
going
to
lose
it,
I
would
be
surprised
it's
very.
B
Enlightening
for
me
that
they
are
going
to
let
you
add
stuff
into
the
erg,
because
that
that
is
not
the
case
for
regular
business
holders.
So
I
think
we
need
to
give
this
administration
some
grace
on
how
they
handle
these
these
grants
because
they
are
turning
just
like
our
covet.
Information
is
on
an
almost
daily
basis.
So
thank
you
for
your
flexibility,
because
it's
a
lot
of
work
to
go
out
and
tour
those
buildings
and
get
the
bids
and
just
to
even
figure
out
the
scope
of
work.
J
Yes,
thank
you.
I
just
wanted
to
add
a
few
a
few
points.
I've
been
back
and
forth
about
this
today.
I
even
had
a
conversation
with
blake.
So
thank
you
for
your
time
on
that.
I
just
want
to
add
to
this
conversation
that
these
there
is
not
a
lot
of
data
around
the
efficacy
or
safety
of
some
of
some
of
these
these
things.
So
that
gave
me
a
little
bit
of
pause
today
when
you
look
at
the
cdc
return
to
school
guidelines
and
the
american
academy
pediatrics,
which
I
tend
to
follow.
J
They
deem
these
as
alternative
disinfection
methods,
and
they
point
out
that
the
epa
does
not
routinely
review
the
safety
or
efficacy
of
these
things.
So
we
really
don't
have
have
data
particular
to
covid
and
the
and
the
mitigation
of
stars
cov2.
However,
thank
you
for
everything.
That's
been
said
here
tonight,
because
there's
a
deadline
on
on
this
using
this
money
by
december
30th
31st,
and
I
think
that
these
are
good
strategies
to
use
in
our
school
for
the
regular
safety
of
clean
air
and
and
water.
J
As
far
as
like
regular
bacteria
and
viruses
like
you
were
saying
david,
but
I
just
want
to
be
very
clear
that
we
aren't
misrepresenting
to
the
public
that
this
is
a
covid19
mitigation
strategy,
because
I
can't
in
good
faith,
say
that.
But
I
think
it
is
a
good
thing
to
do
and
it
is
the
standard
now
of
all
new
buildings.
G
Yeah
absolutely
agree
with
with
dr
newman,
which
is
kind
of
why
we
we
provided
this,
because
we
wanted
to
make
sure
that
it
fell
under
the
physical
environment
improvements.
I
just
checked
my
email.
We
did
receive
the
notice
for
this
grant,
which
allowed
us
to
use
corpse
dollars
because
corps
dollars
was
limited
on
october
28th.
So
that's
when
we
were
actually
notified
of
both
this
document
and
the
ability
to
to
use
a
resiliency
grant
and
then,
as
for
the
benefits
again,
dr
newman
talked
about
it.
G
We
don't
know
if
this
is
a
mitigation
strategy
for
kova
19.
This
is
to
provide
improve
the
physical
environment
to
provide
cleaner
air
and
cleaner
water,
and
then
I
believe
what
anne
marie
said
is
that
we
probably
have
done
some
of
this
work
at
our
central
office
or
our
south
office
at
the
nutrition
services
kitchen
as
well.
O
Yes,
our
intention
services.
We
actually
installed
the
operations
center
in
our
distribution
area
and
in
nutrition
services.
We
installed
the
uv
lighting
uv
lighting.
We
turn
on
at
a
certain
time
at
night
when
people
aren't
around
in
the
building
that
does
help
disinfect
large
areas,
surfaces,
cans
of
canned
goods,
all
sorts
of
different
things.
Over
there
we
like
to
disinfect,
I
believe
it's
helped
and
improved
the
overall
building
health
and
the
quality
over
there
having
those
items
installed.
F
C
It's
important
to
mention
that
dr
ghandi
is
working
with
the
officials
that
give
these
grants
out
in
bismarck
and
and
so
he's
done
a
lot
of
work
here
behind
the
scenes
in
order
for
the
officials
that
are
handing
these
grants
out
to
change
in
in
mid-course,
and
so
he's
not
sharing
that
information
with
you.
So
we
appreciate
all
the
work
and
advocate
that
you've
done
for
not
only
the
fargo
public
schools,
but
all
the
schools
in
in
the
state.
So
thank
you.
N
Thank
you.
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you
to
those
who
asked
you
know
some
difficult
questions
around
this,
because
it
is
actually
a
big
ask
of
the
board
to
to
you
know,
accept
allowing
this
to
happen
without
public
bid
process.
So
I
can't
say
that
that
ask
has
come
in
front
of
us
before
and-
and
I
think
that
this
dialogue.
N
It's
good
that
it
gave
us
pause
and
that
we
ask
tough
questions
and
and
that
I
don't
see
it
as
doubting
anyone,
um's
intent
or
questions
that
have
or
have
not
been
asked.
I
see
it
as
an
opportunity
for
us
as
board
members
to
understand
the
information
fully
before
we
vote
on
it,
so
we
can
feel
confident
in
our
vote
to
support.
So
thank
you
and
I
too
will
plan
to
support.
A
F
G
I
wholeheartedly
agree,
so
I
I
don't
think
we
ever
view
this
as
doubting.
This
is
the
conversation
we
want
and
expect
at
the
board
level
just
for
the
emergency
provision,
but
then
also,
we
all
have
a
fiduciary
responsibility
to
to
our
taxpayer
dollars
and
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
making
the
best
use
of
it.
This
is
why
this
afternoon
we
were
looking
at
the
research
around
this
and
making
sure
that
we
were
staying
true
to
the
intent
of
the
grant
and
making
sure
we
went
back
to
the
documents.
F
E
P
P
A
H
Yes,
we
did
have
a
negotiations
planning
meeting
and
I
didn't
put
that
down.
So,
yes,
we
did
october
26
through
the
30th.
Of
course
we
had
mentioned
prior
the
north
dakota
school
board.
Association
law
seminar
took
place
that
week
october
30th
was
also
the
delegate
assembly
november
5th.
I
sat
in
on
a
call
with
superintendent
basler
for
a
statewide
discussion
with
school
boards
and
and
yes,
the
negotiations
meeting
and
then,
as
far
as
communications
advocacy
and
engagement
goes,
we
haven't
met
since
my
last
report.
N
E
Nothing
they've
covered
everything,
we've
had
negotiations
and
planning.
I
think
I'm
looking
at
the
calendar
reminders
that
anne-marie
provided
with
us.
I
believe
that
on
november
19th
we
piggybacked
a
negotiations
committee
meeting
following
governance,
because
there
are
so
many
members
that
overlap.
So
I
I
had
down,
at
least
in
my
calendar,
that
we
had
the
governance
committee
meeting
at
7
30
and
a
negotiations
committee
meeting
immediately
following
yeah
am
am
I
right.
B
I'll
start
with
the
events
and
close
with
gak,
since
it's
been
a
big
week
in
elections,
so
the
wheat,
the
last
week
of
october,
the
ndsba
law
seminars,
I
thought
they
were
very
helpful
learned
a
lot
good
refreshers
on
october
29th,
the
north
dakota
return
to
learn
town
hall,
which
is
typically
put
on
by
the
doctors
that
were
included
in
basler's,
call
that
you
referenced
nikki,
and
I
also
that
night
got
to
be.
As
I
mentioned,
to
the
school
board
members,
I
got
to
be
the
elected
official
for
girl
scouts
earning
their
their
badge.
B
B
October
30th
was
the
ndsba
delegate
assembly
the
next
week
on
november.
Sorry,
yes
november,
12th
the
instructional
plan
committee.
As
an
alternate
I
sit
through
on
that
I
don't
get
to
participate,
but
I
really
thank
all
the
people
that
are
doing
all
the
work
there.
It's
important
work.
The
next
day,
on
october
november
3rd,
the
new
police
chief
asked
to
meet
with
me
and
he's
a
big
supporter
of
sros,
so
we'll
have
a
lot
of
partnerships
with
our
new
police
chief
as
well.
B
B
B
B
The
presumed
president-elect
biden
has
some
some
great
plans
that
he
is
presenting.
I
would
expect
that
we
will
have
a
new
secretary
of
education.
He's
also
proposed
tripling
the
federal
title
one
program
dollars
for
low-income
schools
concerned
about
making
sure
that
public
dollars
go
to
public
schools.
B
But
I
would
say,
on
the
flip
side
of
that
we
are
still
controlled
by
a
republican
senate
and
house.
So
those
are
great
plans,
but
there's
going
to
be
some
some
battles
there
at
the
national
level,
but
going
to
try
to
keep
up
to
date
on
those
that
rupak
sends
me.
Some
updates
as
well.
So
hang
tight
guys.
The
ride
is
not
over,
but
as
I
am
committed
as
been
several
years,
I
will
fight
for
public
education
until
the
end
on
november
17th.
B
B
Joe
lynn
sent
out
a
advance
packet
today.
That
includes
the
in.
I
gave
everybody
in
it
save
the
dates
she
is
going.
She
sent
out
a
list
of
district
contacts
on
on
card
stock
for
our
legislators,
the
fast
facts
and
then
our
legislative
priority
booklets.
We
did
refine
that
and
I
think
we've
got
it
finalized
for
the
session.
Sorry
to
take
so
much
time
here,
but
we've
been
jolin,
has
worked
really
hard
and
jackie
on
this.
B
So
I
deserve
some
discussion,
but
basically
our
top
priorities
for
this
legislative
session
at
the
state
level
are
behavioral
health
and
education
funding
and
we
can
get
down
into
details
of
those
as
we
proceed
and
I
believe
I
can't
even
remember
when
the
next
gag.
Oh,
we
are
foregoing
the
december
gak
meeting
because
of
we're
going
to
gear
up
in
here
in
in
january,
and
then
it's
going
to
be
a
wild
ride,
but
we're
good
to
go.
We've
got
the
the
the
plan
set
up
and
each
of
you
have.
B
C
I
had
a
planning
meeting
led
by
our
chairman,
jim
johnson,
a
negotiated
meeting
with
led
by
david
paulson,
our
chairman,
and
a
gac
meeting
I
attended
with
robin
nelson,
as
our
chairman,
I'd
like
to
thank
all
three
of
those
chairmen.
They
do
excellent
work
and
I'd
like
to
thank
all
the
other
board
members
as
well
for
all
the
work
you're
doing
in
your
committees,
because
I
value
that
work.
C
C
A
Thank
you
brian.
I
my
report
I
wanted
to
highlight
for
anyone
too,
that
might
be
listening
in
and
then
reminders
for
board
members.
Regarding
the
woodrow
wilson
high
school
renaming
process.
There
was,
of
course,
a
community
engagement
process
for
name
submissions
that
began
and
and
closed.
Well,
it
closed
november
8th,
thank
you
to
the
community
members
that
were
involved
in
providing
us
with
ideas
of
of
names
for
us
to
consider
through
that
online
process.
A
A
A
A
I
have
not
been
given
the
where
downtown,
but
to
serve
as
an
indigenous
center.
So
that's
something
that
is
desperately
needed
in
our
community
committee
meetings
that
I
have
attended.
The
the
cea
meeting
communications
education,
advocacy
planning.
I
listened
in
on
the
phone
there
government
relations
thanks
robin
for
all
the
work
thanks
all
committee
chairs
for
everything,
that's
being
done,
there's
a
lot
of
good
work,
that's
being
done
by
by
the
entire
board
to
date.
A
There
is
an
editorial
board
meeting
that
is
set
up
that
rupak
and
I
will
participate
in
I'm
not
quite
sure
if
that's
november,
18th
or
not,
I
feel
like
I've,
seen
some
maybe
communication
on
if
there's
a
date
that
isn't
working
or
not.
So
we
just
need
to
finalize
that
we
don't
need
to
do
that
now.
Also
november
5th
participated
in
the
session
that
superintendent
basler
offered
offered
to
us.
I,
the
main
one
of
the
main
takeaways
that
I
took
from
that
was
the
push
on
masks.
A
There
was
a
really
really
serious
discussion
about
masks
and
that,
like
it
is
not
even
up
for
discussion
as
in
terms
of
if
they
work
or
not,
and
we
can
disagree
about
all
kinds
of
other
things,
but
not
masks.
That
was,
and
I'm
just
I'm
paraphrasing
paraphrasing
the
discussion
that
was
that
was
there.
I
believe
it
too,
but
that
was
a
very,
very
strong
statement.
A
A
If
I
have
any
questions
or
if
there's
anything
that
I
really
wonder
about
or
any
specific
concerns
that
I
felt
that
I
needed
to
raise,
I
I
didn't
have
any,
but
he
did
bring
up
a
discussion
about
a
fraud
risk
assessment
that
he
might
be
suggesting
that
we
do
so.
I
have
some
information
from
him
on
that
and
I'll
take
a
look
at
that
and
figure
out
where
we
go
from
there.
A
We
have
all
been
reminded
that
we
need
to
have
a
new
password
change
every
365
days
at
the
minimum,
and-
and
I
want
to
thank
the
help
desk
for
helping
me
and
for
hanging
with
me
on
the
phone
okay,
brian
too,
and
me
he
the
the
person
that
did
work
with
me
and
I'm
sorry.
I
don't
have
his
name
right
now,
but
he
said
I
have
helped
some
other
board
members
as
well.
A
Of
course
we
have
a
ton
of
feedback
from
our
community
and
it's
great
regarding
boundaries,
specifically
boundaries
and
covid
related,
and
so
the
next
meeting
for
that
instructional
plan
committee
is
6.
30
am
monday,
and
I,
in
regard
to
the
boundaries,
what
I
have
been
trying
to
do
in
terms
of
emailing
back
constituents
is
to
try
to
help.
Let
constituents
know
where
we
are
in
the
process
and
that
it's
it's
with
the
planning
committee.
Right
now.
A
I
know
planning
just
met,
but
that
that
it's
that
those
three
plans
that
were
elevated
our
last
board
meeting
went
back
to
the
planning
committee
for
further
discussion
and
more
information.
That's
going
to
be
coming
to
us,
I
think
at
our
next
board
meeting.
So
really
I,
when
there
have
been
messages
that
have
been
come
to
us,
that
that
seem
like
they're
ones,
probably
that
go
to
all
board
members,
I
I
have
reminded
them
of
that.
A
It's
at
planning,
and
so
if
those
individuals
have
sent
that
information
to
all
nine
board
members
that
planning
committee
members
have
also
received
that
so
that
you
know
that
at
that
committee
level,
everyone
that
serves
on
planning
can
take
that
information
and
use
that
to
help
make
decisions
at
planning
too,
that
gets
forward
forwarded
to
us
november
18th.
There
is
the
core
neighborhood
steering
committee
that
I
serve
on.
I
will
be
participating.
Actually
I
guess
that's
the
excuse
me,
the
17th
of
november.
I
think
that's
a
zoom
meeting.
A
I
provided
the
the
consultant
there
and
I
know
dr
gandhi,
you
talked
with
peter
lombardi
too.
He
said
that
your
conversation
was
really
valuable,
but
I
provided
him
with
our
current
elementary
middle
and
high
school
boundaries,
the
enrollment
data
on
socioeconomics,
which
is
something
that
he
requested
and
also
our
annual
report.
That
includes
the
profiles
on
all
of
the
core
neighborhood,
the
school,
the
schools
and
the
neighborhoods
that
are
being
addressed
in
that
core
neighborhood
plan.
So
that
is
my
report.
Brian.
A
J
Yeah,
it's
it's
kind
of
nice
to
go
last.
You
guys
have
said
almost
all
of
it
boy
yeah.
I
too
took
part
of
the
india
sba,
school
law
seminars
and
the
ndsba
delegate
assembly
that
was
really
cool
to
do
with
the
first
time.
I
feel,
like
I
learned
a
lot
in
those
I
just
wanted
to
do
a
plug
for
tamara
uselman's,
equity
and
inclusion
work.
I
I
think
I
said
it
last
time,
but
I
now
have
completed
session
two
of
the
giant
training
of
her
intro.
I
J
J
I
called
in
yesterday
to
planning
committee
and
then
I
just
watched
the
rps
data
video
and
then
tried
to
review
the
report
to
the
best
of
my
ability.
It
is
a
lot
of
information,
but
I
think
it's
important
and
then
I
too
wrote
a
piece
for
the
journey
and
fargo
public
schools
newsletter,
and
I
think
that's
a
really
great
thing.
The
board
is
going
to
start
doing,
to
increase
our
transparency
and
to
increase
our
voice
directly
to
our
families
and
the
public.
J
A
N
To
because
that
would
have
been
the
best,
the
better
end
I
just
in
looking
at
this.
I
have
two
clarifying
questions
on
a
meeting
date.
I'm
so
sorry
and
I
just
want
to
make
sure
it
is
out
there.
So
robin
did
you
say
there
is
not
going
to
be
a
gac
in
december,
correct,
correct,
okay,
and
then
also
this
document
has
planning
on
the
27th.
