Still
working
to
get
used
to
the
new
order
of
the
agenda
with
that
item
being
added,
so
I
apologize
all
right
so
then
we
will
move
on
to
item
4,
recognition
of
audience
and
one
person
has
signed
up
to
speak
with
us
this
evening.
At
this
time
the
board
will
hear
comments
from
the
public.
We
ask
that
each
speaker
who
has
signed
up
to
address
the
board
state
their
name
and
home
school
district
for
the
record
speakers
must
refrain
from
using
this
form
to
criticize
or
complain
about
a
specific
employee
or
student
by
name.
A
Vulgar
or
profane
language
will
not
be
tolerated.
The
board
is
interested
in
your
comments
and
will
listen
carefully,
but
is
not
obligated
to
respond
or
debate
issues
in
this
forum.
Should
you
desire
a
written
response
to
a
specific
question?
You
may
request
it
this
evening.
The
speaker
will
be
allotted
a
maximum
of
five
minutes
upon
conclusion
of
the
allotted
time.
A
time
will
sound
and
the
speaker
will
be
asked
to
conclude
if
necessary.
A
final
time
will
sound
15
seconds
later,
signifying
the
end
of
the
speaker's
time
at
the
podium
and
the
devin
studinski.
F
Well,
this
has
been
fun
coming
to
these
meetings
regularly.
I
have
two
questions.
One
I'd
like
a
written
explanation
for
as
far
as
the
bonding
for
the
north
high
track,
I'm
curious
as
to
why
we
didn't
just
pay
for
it
outright
out
of
the
building
fund
and
decided
to
borrow
the
money-
and
you
know
paid
several
million
back
in
interest
when
we
could
have
just
cut
the
check
out
right
like
that.
That
seems
very
fiscally
irresponsible,
especially
in
this
particular
economy.
F
My
other
question
is,
and-
and
you
don't
have
to
add
this
in
your
written
response-
it's
more
of
a
it'd-
be
interesting
to
see
how
it
gets
brought
up
later
on
in
the
meeting
with
the
current
metrics
of
student
success
for
reading
writing
and
graduation,
and
we
haven't
seen
the
new
numbers.
Yet
I'm
sure
we
will,
in
like
july.
F
How
does
spending
time
and
money
and
resources
doing
a
land
acknowledgment
statement?
How
does
that
help
the
success
of
the
children?
I
I'm
I'm
confused
as
to
why,
when
we
have
that-
and
we
have
violence
in
the
classrooms
and
all
these
other
issues
that
we
would
choose
to
go
with
something
that,
personally,
I
think,
wouldn't
you
know,
isn't
necessary
to
help
the
students
succeed.
G
F
B
H
H
H
So
as
a
summary
states,
here
we
will
sunset.
The
current
marzano
model
called
the
legacy
model,
and
it
talks
a
little
bit
about
in
that
in
here
and
then
effective
july
1st.
We
will
move
to
the
focus
teacher
evaluation
model
and
that
environment
is
currently
being
built
within
our
eye
observation
platform,
where
evaluations
are
conducted.
H
So
the
required
observations
piece
just
real
quickly.
There's
two
types:
there's
category
one
and
category
two
teachers
and
that's
by
years
of
service
listed
here
category
one
are
our
newest
teachers
or
with
within
their
first
three
years
of
service
and
it'll,
show
the
amount
of
observations
that
must
be
conducted
and
then
category
two.
Those
are
teachers
that
have
completed
at
least
three
years
of
service
and
it
outlines
the
required
observations
there
and
then
excuse
me
required
evaluations.
H
Century
cro
code
provides
a
very
broad
definition
of
evaluation,
simply
that
one
is
required
no
later
than
december
15th
and
then
required
no
later
than
april
15th
and
again
it
breaks
it
down
into
category
one
and
two
teachers
as
far
as
how
many
amount
or
the
amount
of
the
evaluations
that
need
to
be
done.
So
you
can
see
that
for
our
category,
one,
our
newer
teachers
and
then
you
flip
the
page
over.
H
You
can
see
that
for
our
category
2
teachers
and
then
currently
in
what
we've
used
for
a
number
of
years
is
called
the
marzano
legacy
system.
You
will
see,
there's
a
graphic
on
that
page.
It's
domains
within
the
current
evaluation
model.
There
are
four
domains
and
there's
60
elements
within
their
principles.
Do
have
the
discretion
to
rate
within
those
four
domains,
but
there
are
typically
targeted
elements
that
we
do
ask
them
to
rate
on
that's
the
model
that
we've
used
up
until
now.
H
If
we
flip
the
page
again,
we
actually
get
to
the
teacher
evaluation
results.
This
year
we
sent
results
for
a
thousand
and
thirty
teachers,
and
these
are
classroom.
Teachers
and
you'll
see
the
scale
it's
innovating
all
the
way
through,
not
using
so
a
four
through
zero
system
and
that's
provided
through
the
marzano
framework.
H
But
this
has
been
about
a
two
year
transition
where
and
I'm
trying
to
think
of
my
years
here.
They
kind
of
blur
into
each
other
a
little
bit,
but
we
put
together
a
committee
of
principals
teachers
and
other
administrators
where
we
talked
about
what
works
with
our
evaluation
system.
What
doesn't
is
the
platform
we're
using?
Is
that
something
we
want
to
continue.
H
Does
our
evaluation
system
provide
the
feedback
and
move
student
results
as
it
should?
Throughout
those
conversations
there
was
a
lot
of
robust
conversation
there,
but
ultimately
we
did
do
research
and
chose
that
committee
chose
to
recommend
this
focused
teacher
evaluation
model,
so
I've
outlined
some
of
the
key
objectives
of
that
focused
teacher
evaluation
model.
It
simplifies
the
overall
evaluation
process.
H
H
There
really
was
a
process
of
really
combining
and
condensing
those
elements,
so
it
wasn't
a
matter
of
we're
just
going
to
get
rid
of
these.
It's
combining
and
condensing
them
down
to
make
a
more
efficient
evaluation
process,
but
that's
the
model
and
that's
the
domains
that
we'll
be
using
moving
forward
and
that
will
be
loaded
into
our
eye
observation
system
and
then,
of
course,
with
this
comes
a
healthy
dose
of
professional
development.
H
So
you
can
see
again-
and
I
think
I
listed
this
last
year-
but
last
summer
in
2021,
we
reviewed
the
essential
need
to
knows
of
the
overall
evaluation
process
with
principles.
This
last
school
year.
We
spent
some
time
calibrating
with
principals
and
crosswalking
our
current
domains
of
our
legacy
model
and
how
that
will
work
with
the
new
ftem
domains.
So
that
was
pd.
That
happened
all
through
this
last
school
year
and
then
moving
into
this
upcoming
school
year.
H
I
I'm
going
to
assume
that
principals
and
administrators
and
teachers
are
going
to
be
pleased
about
simplifying
the
evaluation
process
and
decreasing
some
of
that
time.
Can
you
just
like
elaborate
or
give
me
some
a
couple
examples
of
how
the
different
evaluation
process
accomplishes
those
those
objectives.
H
J
J
I
can't
give
you
the
number,
but
over
100
different
elements
in
terms
of
components
of
teaching
and
we're
going
through
a
shift,
even
as
a
district
of
like
philosophical
conversations
about
what
are
high-impact
teaching
strategies
versus
low-impact
teaching
strategies
based
off
of
the
work
of
both
marzano
and
john
hattie,
who
does
an
annual
meta-analysis
on
the
biggest
impacts
of
student
achievement.
So,
for
example,
before
under
student
engagement,
there
might
have
been
a
strategy
around
peer-to-peer
conversations
or
the
level
of
rigorous
question
asking
or
different
pieces
of
that.
J
What
the
ftem
model
basically
did.
Is
it
grouped
some
of
those
into
more
generic
strategies
that
we
want
to
use
for
students
it
also
identified
based
on
last,
however,
many
years
of
research.
These
have
been
the
most
impactful
to
directly
translating
for
student
achievement,
and
then
we
have
what
we've
created
working
with
phil
warwick
and
their
group
was
a
marzano
consultancy
group
called
the
fargo
public
schools,
instructional
playbook
and
that
playbook
will
tap
will
even
identify
even
within
the
ftm
models.
J
I
don't
want
to
use
the
phrase
every
time
for
every
lesson,
but
we
want
to
see
being
prominently
used
and
if
they're
not,
then
we
would
then
have
those
conversations
for
teacher
growth
about.
Why
aren't
we
seeing
using
some
of
those
strategies
if
we
know
that
they
are
highly
impactful?
And
then,
if
a
teacher
says,
because
it's
not
working
for
my
students
for
x
reason,
then
we
have
those
conversations
about
okay,
great.
So
then
what
is
working
and
be
able
to
use
that
for
that
growth
and
development?
G
K
A
question:
thank
you.
When
I
look
at
the
section
on
teacher
evaluation
results
with
the
scale
it
looks
like
we
had
77
percent
at
level
3,
which
is
applying
and
then
9
at
innovating,
which
was
actually
up
a
little
from
last
school
year.
So
I'm
curious.
Is
there
any
thought
of
talking
to
that
nine
percent
about
what
they're
doing
right
or
having
them
workshop
for
other
teachers,
or
how
can
we
increase
that
percentage,
or
is
that
even
the
goal?
I
guess
I
would
like.
J
J
We
want
to
get
teacher
input
and
roll
things
out
down
the
road,
but
I
think
sometimes
there's
a
struggle
between
teacher
evaluation
and
teaching
effectiveness,
and
should
they
always
be
paired
together
or
is
teaching
effectiveness,
one
component
of
your
teacher
evaluation
and
they
are
different,
but
they've
historically
always
been
used
separately
because
there's
so
many
factors
that
go
into
teaching.
So
we're
not
sure
if
we're
at
the
point
of
do,
we
want
to
ask
the
nine
percent
of
our
teachers
that
are
innovating
to
say:
do
we
want
to
replicate
that?
J
And
what
can
we
do
to
get
more
teachers
into
innovating,
because
I
think
the
question
that
we're
asking
right
now
is:
are
we
seeing
a
higher
level
of
student
achievement
between
the
nine
percent
than
those
are
sitting
at
applying
and,
if
not,
then
does
the
utilization
of
one
strategy
increase
student
achievement
to
begin
with,
because
I
think
we
want
to
focus
on
that
piece
of
what
the
evaluation
should
be
able
to
do.
But
is
someone
just
doing
something?
Because
it's
part
of
their
evaluation
and
observer
is
going
to
want
to
see
that
strategy?
J
Or
are
they
really
doing
it,
because
that
impacts
students?
And
I
think,
that's
the
question
that
we're
trying
to
ask
right
now,
so
we're
still
kind
of
seeing.
We
also
want
to
study
the
merits
of
the
relationship
between
the
evaluation
and
student
achievement
and
teacher
ownership
of
doing
that
piece
based
on
their
student
data
versus
just
doing
it,
because
it's
part
of
their
evaluation.
L
You
so
as
a
follow-up
report
to
some
of
the
things
that
you
had
mentioned
when
you
read
through
the
you
know,
in
order
to
get
a
rating
of
a
four
innovating
adaption,
creates
new
strategies
for
unique
student
needs
and
situations,
and
so
would
it
be
fair
to
say
that
they
received
that
rating,
because
they
had
indeed
reached
the
majority
of
student
needs
and
achievement.
There
was
a
result
was
higher
or
how
did
they
then
determine
to
give
a
four
if
they're
not
relate,
if
they're
not
yet
tied
together,.
J
So
that
four
can
be
reflective
of
one
observation
or
it
could
be
reflected
before
if
it,
depending
on
whether
it's
known
as
some
summative
or
whether
it's
in
a
individual
observation.
But
it
was
what
was
captured
by
someone
that
was
observing
at
that
moment
in
time
and
then
at
our
principles
meetings.
J
We
start
every
principal
meeting
within
our
professional
development,
which
this
past
year
has
been
around
calibration,
where
we
would
watch
teacher
videos
and
say:
okay,
how
would
you
rate
this
using
the
same
rubric?
How
would
you
rate
that
so
that's
where
that
four
would
come
from,
and
so
that's
kind
of
our
question
as
well.
B
M
I
tend
to
view
evaluations
as
observing,
but
also
growth,
and
I
think
that's
what
I
like
about
this
model
is
educators,
know
what
they're
going
to
be
evaluated
upon.
So
they
know
what
to
work
toward
and
evaluations
are
not
the
end
all
be
all,
but
how
can
we
improve
and
continue
to
get
to
level
four?
M
B
E
Ahead,
one
of
you,
so
we
had
a
growth
goal
component
built
into
the
eye
observation
system
and
it
I
will
say
that
it's
been
kind
of
clunky
as
we
go
forward,
so
we
have
re
revamped
it
and
we'll
be
uploading,
our
own
form
because
they're
allowing
us
to
customize
it
so
they're
going
to
identify
what
they
want
to
work
on
the
nice
part.
By
using
the
observation
system.
E
G
So
then,
the
only
thing
I
would
add
to
that
is
as
a
system.
There
are
some
things
that
we
want
to
concentrate
our
efforts
on,
so
those
are
talked
about,
discussed
and
shared
with
the
staff.
We
also
want
our
staff,
then
to
say:
where
am
I
along
that
continuum
and
that's
where
that
growth
goal
will
be
developed
so
that
it
is
a
partnership
between
the
teacher,
the
principal
or
that
evaluator,
as
we
talk
about-
and
I
agree
with
your
statement
of
this-
is
an
opportunity
for
growth.
A
J
No
major
updates
to
report
at
this
point
in
time.
I
know
that
briefly,
the
board
has
been
informed
that
we
as
a
district,
have
explored
utilizing
some
outside
agency
services
to
fill
some
of
our
critical
shortage
areas
in
in
fargo
public
schools,
specifically
around
teaching
and
with
international
hires.
J
So
it
would
be
no
different
for
at
least
up
to
five
years
at
this
point
and
then
there
is
no
necessarily
additional
cost
to
the
district.
At
this
point
in
time,
because
the
placement
agency
we
work
with,
puts
a
class
back
on
on
the
teachers
on
their
end
for
helping
them
find
a
job,
but
they
would
come
fully
certified
and
to
work
with
our
students,
so
we're
grateful.
A
D
C
A
Hold
the
same
sign
and
on
to
business.
The
first
item
is
assignment
of
the
canvassing
committee
memo
124,
and
this
spells
out
the
procedure
for
a
canvassing
committee
that
happens
annually
to
seek
out
person
qualified
persons
in
membership
of
the
board
interested
in
serving
as
president
and
vice
president
for
our
next
year,
and
so
there
is
a
recommendation
at
the
bottom
for
three
individuals
that
would
serve
on
the
canvassing
committee.
Those
individuals
can't
be
officers,
so
I
would
entertain
a
motion.
Jim.
C
I
A
Yes,
motion
passes.
The
next
item
is
the
land
acknowledgement
statement.
It's
memo,
125.
nikki
contacted
me.
Nikki
golickson
mentioned
to
me
that
she
was
not
going
to
be
able
to
be
at
the
meeting
today,
unfortunately,
and
asked
if
I
would
introduce
the
memo
and
also
as
serving
on
the
communications,
engagement
and
advocacy
committee,
which
is
where
this
memo
comes
from.
A
I
Obviously
I
made
the
motion,
I'm
very
in
support
of
this
of
us
adopting
this
land
acknowledgment
statement.
I
I
think
it's
up
to
further
board
discussion
on
what
we
where,
where
we
want
to
use
this,
you
know
in
the
cea
committee
that
we
talked
about.
Do
we
want
plaques
with
this
statement
on
our
buildings.
Do
we
want
this
to
be
recited
by
the
president
prior
to
meetings?
I
would
like
to
see
me.
I
G
I
At
this
point,
I
know
that
ndsu
has
adopted
one
in
in
recent
years,
what
they,
what
they
have
done
with
it
as
far
as
buildings
and
the
things
that
I
that
I
just
spoke
about,
I'm
not
quite
sure,
but
I
know
that
there
was
some
work
done
between
ndsu
and
trying
to
figure
out
what
you
know
what
they
did
as
far
as
theirs
goes.
But
as
far
as
local
public
school
districts,
I'm
not
sure.
J
Yeah,
I
was
just
going
to
hear
that
I
know
that
land
acknowledgement
statements
have
been
developed
and
utilized
in
other
school
districts
across
the
nation
k-12
school
districts-
I
don't
know
specifically
about
north
dakota
or
south
dakota.
Schools
on
reservations
also
wanted
to
just
kind
of
clarify
something
that
president
knudson
said.
The
district
kind
of
looking
through
the
el
policies
viewed
the
development
and
utilization
of
a
land
acknowledgment
statement,
part
of
our
purview.
There
wasn't
a
violation.
J
J
And
if
so,
what
does
that
look
like
it
kind
of
falls
in
that
realm
of
an
agenda
item
with
a
pledge
that
was
added
to
the
board
or
other
things
of
that
nature
for
the
board?
But
the
district
will
plan
on
utilizing
the
land
acknowledgement
statement
kind
of
as
identified
within
our
stakeholder
groups
for
all
of
our
administrative
purview
functions.
B
C
C
I
think
we
might
want
to
insert
where
we
say
we
gather
on
the
lands
the
word
original
before
lands,
because
I'm
here
to
tell
you
that
this
land
that
we're
gathering
on
today
is
not
currently
owned
by
any
of
the
parties
involved.
Here,
the
houses
you
all
own
today
are
on
lands
that
were
one
time
of
these
nations,
but
they
aren't
currently.
So
I
think
the
word
original
needs
to
get
in
there
or
we're
going
to
have
some
people
giving
us
negative
feedback
which
we
don't
need
on
this
issue
at
all.
N
A
Okay
right
so
seth,
I
just
wanted
to
clarify
what
your
intent
was
when
you
made
the
motion.
Was
your
motion
to
support
the
three
bullet
points
that
are
included
on
the
memo
or
not
to
address
that
at
this
point,
so
I
can
read
the
three
bullet
points
so
out
of
communications,
engagement
and
advocacy.
The
consensus
was
to
include
these
three
recommendations
well
for
us
to
consider
this
evening,
one
that
it
that
it
would
be
included
on
the
bottom
of
all
regular,
special
and
standing
committee
meeting
agendas.
A
You
know
to
acknowledge
staff
if
a
board
member
decided
or
if
we
decided
our
planning
that
we
wanted
to
utilize
the
statement
at
some
way,
whether
it
was
printed
or
verbalize
it.
We
could
do
that
if
there's
a
committee
meeting
where
or
someone
is
a
chair
of
a
committee
is
holding
a
meeting
or
holding
an
event
to
maybe
inform
citizens
about.
I
don't
know
some
topic.
It
would
be
really
up
to
a
board
member
to
decide
if
he
or
she
wants
to
utilize
the
statement.
I
I
L
A
couple
things
so
seth
to
your
point
about
amending
what
was
recommended.
I
just
want
to
clarify
these
recommendations
actually
came
from
committee,
not
from
those
who
presented
the
land
acknowledgement
statement,
so
the
statement
was
presented
to
us,
but
how
to
use
it
came
from
just
a
few
on
the
committee.
Yes,
okay,
I
I
know
that
you,
I
don't
think
you
were
able
to
attend.
So
I'm
just
wanted
to
clarify
the.
I
L
If
I
need
to
repeat
that,
let
me
know
tara,
but
because
it
states
in
there
how
we
use
this
will
impact,
how
we
use
other
things
or
are
required
to
use
other
things.
So
I
do
think
that,
because
it's
come
here
we
need
to
and
that
this
is
how
our
duties
are
defined
is
by
century
code,
that
we
need
to
take
a
look
at
that
and
better
understand
it
before
we
say
for
sure.
O
So
if
I'm
I'm
guessing
the
intent
without
researching
that,
but
my
guess
is
that's
related
to
statues
and
crosses
and
bibles
and
things
of
that
nature,
and
I
get
that
it
references,
cultural,
legal
and
historical
significance,
but
I
don't
necessarily
believe
without
doing
further
research
that
that's
the
intent
of
that
statute
statute.
Excuse
me.
A
And
so
again,
the
statement
the
work
is
something
that
was
done
by
the
district.
The
district
decided
that
it
was
important
to
move
forward
with
this,
and
so
at
one
of
the
cea
committee
meetings
passed
representatives
from
indian
education
presented
the
information
at
that
meeting,
so
this
isn't
a
project
that
started
with
the
cea
committee.
A
That's
not
our
decision,
that's
something
that
falls
within
the
district's
abilities
to
have
that
done.
So
what
we're
talking
about
so
the
statement
is
it
exists
if
it
is
tweaked
a
little
bit
down
the
road,
that's
also
a
different
story.
The
statement
exists
the
way
it
is
right
now,
and
so
what
we're
talking
about
tonight
is.
Are
we
going
to
adopt
that
statement
and
are
we
going
to
decide
then,
as
a
result
of
adopting
it,
how
we're
going
to
utilize
it?
Because
the
district
is
making
decisions
on
how
they're
utilizing
it
jim.
C
A
L
You
have
sorry
I
do
so.
I
feel
like
there's
still
some
questions,
and
there
was
also
a
suggestion,
so
I
think
there
either
needs
to
be
an
amendment
or
there
needs
to-
or
I
would
make
the
motion
honestly
that
we
lay
this
on
the
table
or
delay
it
until
the
next
meeting,
because
I
think
we
need
to
answer
some
questions.
First,.
L
N
M
I
seconded
this
mainly
because
I
do
support
the
concept,
but
it's
a
little
it's
a
somewhat
of
a
messy
roll
out
if
you
will-
and
so
I
think,
if
we
were
to
take
board
action
on
this,
we
need
to
have
clear
action
and
I'm
not
quite
sure
what
I'm
voting
on.
So
some
clarification
would
be
appreciated,
but
I
do
appreciate
I
I
will
conceptually
support
this
as
long
as
we
have
clarity.
L
J
I'll
provide
clarity
for
for
at
least
a
piece
that
I
can
just
from
my
perception
and
how
I'm
assessing
the
situation.
I
don't
know
if
the
event
or
if
the
suggestion
from
jim
really
should
impact,
have
any
bearing
on
on
the
concept
that
what
you're
voting
on
jim
made
a
recommendation
to
administration.
J
I
have
not
been
part
of
this
development
process.
I
will
you
see
dr
ozilman.
In
the
back.
Our
indiana
team
led
this
work.
They
did
some
phenomenal
work.
They
have
their
reasons
for
what
they
discussed,
but
we'll
take
it
back
to
them
and
let
them
decide
you
know
just
no
different
than
dr
newman.
In
the
previous
conversation
saying
hey,
this
piece
of
information
would
be
relative
for
us
to
consider.
If
we
came
back
and
said
we
don't
have
correlation
data
on
student
achievement,
we
wouldn't
we'd.
J
Just
tell
you
that
that's
just
a
recommendation
that
was
given
for
administration
to
consider
the
individuals
that
are
really
the
experts
in
the
field
and
doing
the
work.
So
that's
how
we
viewed
that
all
you're
saying
is
a
piece
of
information
that
is
going
to
be
utilized
for
public
functions
or
as
part
of
a
the
district's
communication
strategy.
J
Do
we
want
to
adopt
that
as
part
of
the
board's
communication
strategy,
because
as
a
function
of
the
board,
you
do
have
a
cea
committee
that
focuses
on
your
communication
with
your
stakeholder,
regardless
of
what
that
the
actual
words
are
or
what
the
medium
is
you're
solely
voting
on
there's
a
statement
that
the
district
will
be
utilized.
It
could
be
a
living
statement
for
all
we
know.
Will
that
will
the
board
choose
to
use
that
as
part
of
its
communication
strategy.
M
K
You
yeah,
I
I'm
I'm
confused
by
the
confusion.
I
think
so
it's
right
there
we
we.
I
know
it
just
looks
like
three
simple
bullet
points,
but
we
spent
a
lot
of
time
in
multiple
committee
meetings
actually
distilling
those
down.
So
that
is
our
recommendation
from
the
committee
to
this.
So
the
land
acknowledgement
statement
already
exists.
K
Our
our
decision
here
tonight
is
how
would
the
board
of
education
like
to
utilize
that
and
we
went
from
everything
from
not
utilizing
it
to
reading
it
at
every
board
meeting,
and
these
are
the
three
I
feel
like
middle
ground
points.
We
decided
on
number
one
included
at
the
bottom
of
all
regular
special
and
standing
committee
meeting
agendas,
so
it
would
just
be
at
the
bottom
of
our
agenda
printed
here,
number
two
read
by
the
board
president
annually
at
the
reorganization
meeting.
So
once
a
year
the
president
would
read
this
and
number
three.
A
Tracy,
what
you
were
going
to
say
was
what
I
was
going
to
say.
I
see
that
the
the
recommendations
are
the
three
items
here,
they're
likely
clearer
to
me
because
I'm
on
the
committee-
and
I
was
part
of
the
conversation,
so
any
other
questions
before
we
vote
on
that
motion
which
would
be
to
table
it
to
what
meeting
anne
marie
postponing
it
until
the
june
28th
meeting
june
28th.
Okay,.
K
I
N
I
D
M
A
N
C
D
I
N
A
This
is
regarding
board
policy
gp7,
and
it
is
an
analysis,
annual
evaluation
and
renewal
really
of
our
five
standing
committees
and,
as
it
says,
on
the
memo,
the
monitoring
of
this
policy
is
not
so
much
to
evaluate
compliance
as
it
is
to
provide
an
opportunity
for
members
to
discuss
whether
the
committees
are
still
the
right
committees
and
whether
they
are
functioning
effectively
on
the
duties
assigned.
Is
there
a
motion?
Please
seth?
I.
M
Therefore,
we
could
conceptually
have
six
of
our
nine
board
members
on
the
governance
committee
and
I
and
I'm
not
I'm
not
quite
sure.
If
I
oppose
that.
I
also
consider
if
we
were
down
to
maybe
three
members
of
the
board.
Would
we
hear
from
the
public
that
only
three
members
are
deciding
what's
our
on
agenda.
M
So
I'm
not
going
to
oppose
this
motion,
but
I
would
really
like
the
board
to
do
some
introspection
on
on
the
number
of
people
on
each
committee.
I'm
not
saying
it's
right
or
wrong,
but
six
out
of
nine
to
me
is
by
far
a
super
majority,
and
I
I
just
wanted
to
make
that
statement,
but
I
will
be
voting
in
favor
of
this
motion.
A
L
If
it's
one
of
those
things
that's
gone
back
and
forth
and
changed
over
time,
because
I
feel
like
it
was
always
four
members
and
other
committees
were
five.
Is
that
typically
how
it
was
before
or
not
necessarily?
Maybe
you
could
clarify,
because
negotiations
chair
was
not
on
governance.
When
I
first
was
elected
to
the
board
eight
years
ago,.
N
Jim
could
probably
give
a
longer
history
on
it.
When
I
first
started
with
the
district
negotiations,
chair
was
not
designated
on
governance
either
it
was
added.
I
could
look
back
exactly
what
year,
but
you
know
a
number
of
years
ago
and
some
of
what's
been
talked
about
is
accurate
as
far
as
what
conversations
were
happening.
Partly
there
was
a
concern
of
there
was
someone
being
designated
a
chair,
but
they
weren't
on
that
committee.
N
If
my
memory
serves
me,
there
has
only
been
one
year,
one
school
year
that
since
this
change
has
been
placed
that
that
did
put
six
members
of
the
board
on
governance.
It
had
has
happened
one
time
other
than
that.
Usually
there's
been
like,
you
know,
a
double
up
on
the
vice
president
serving
on
as
a
chair
or
something
of
that
nature.
So
it's
has
usually
been
five
as
far
as
going
back
farther
gym
as
far
as
four
or
five.
I
can't
speak
to
to
that
jim.
C
Yeah,
actually,
I
think
it
was
always
really
five
what
what
kind
of
flipped
the
script
was.
We
typically
never
had
the
vice
president
be
a
committee
chair
as
well,
so
we
had
three
standing
committees.
Negotiation
was
not
considered
an
annual
standing
committee
because
technically
it
met
typically
every
other
year.
C
C
So
I
don't
know
you
know
there
are
a
couple
of
different
ways.
You
can
fix
that
if
you
think
it
needs
to
be
fixed,
but
I'm
not
so
sure
it's
a
problem
that
needs
to
be,
but
all
of
our
committees
technically
are
a
quorum
of
the
board
and
by
operating
rules
none
of
them
have
authority
to
make
decisions
on
behalf
of
the
board.
A
I
I'm
not
hearing
any
I'm
hearing
that
there's
the
desire
to
have
a
discussion
about
potential
changes
down
the
road,
just
kind
of
opening
that
up
for
dialogue
and
and
some
more
time,
I
guess
to
think
through.
It
might
be
a
good
idea
as
far
as
I'm
concerned
versus
us
making
some
changes
right
now
this
evening,
I'd
like
to
be
able
to
delve
into
each
of
those
committees-
I
guess
and
and
take
a
look
at
that
membership
before
making
a
change
myself.
L
I
would
just
make
a
last
comment
just
to
say
you
know
I
I
certainly
would
support
that.
I
think
it's
actually
long
overdue.
I
think
there
are
some
other
ways
that
we
could
structure
all
of
them.
That
would
really
be
useful
to
board
work,
and
so,
for
that
reason
I'm
I'm
not
gonna
support
it
as
its
current
form
and
look
forward
to
hearing
about
how
you
talk
about
it
in
the
future,
how
you
might
modify
it
in
the
future.
D
L
N
I
N
I
A
K
K
My
favorite
parts
were
a
guy
who
stopped
and
did
a
bunch
of
push-ups
with
claps
before
receiving
his
his
diploma,
only
to
be
followed
by
backflip
guy,
who
literally
did
a
standing
back
flip
and
then
took
his
diploma,
so
it
keeps
getting
better
every
year.
I
appreciate
that
on
june
6th
we
had
our
cea
meeting,
as
was
just
discussed
here
the
next
day
june,
7th
we
had
gac
committee,
which
was
really
interesting.
We
talked
a
lot
about
upcoming
legislative
session.
K
I'm
sure
robin
will
give
us
more
detail,
but
I
also
serve
on
some
governmental
affairs
committees
in
my
medical
life,
so
I'll
be
watching
all
the
legislation
and
anything
that
crosses
to
public
education
and
then
just
this
past
thursday
june
9th,
I
attended
the
governor's
summit
of
innovative
education
virtually
and
found
that
to
be
a
really
good
day.
That's
all
thank
you.
Thank.
I
L
I
too
attended
graduation
and
thank
you
to
the
board
members
for
allowing
me
to
choose
where
my
my
daughter
was
graduating
this
year,
so
I
got
to
give
her
her
diploma,
so
that
was
that
was
pretty
cool,
but
I
also
got
to
shake
the
hand
of
300
plus
students,
and
that
was
pretty
cool
too,
because
I
was
the
only
board
member
there
so
yeah.
So
it
was
nice.
L
L
C
I
too
was
at
the
governor's
summit
and
at
the
south
high
graduation,
we
had
planning
this
morning
we
kind
of
looked
at
the
health
insurance
committee
recommendation,
which
will
be
coming
before
the
board.
I
believe
at
our
next
june
meeting
as
well
as
just
got
a
brief
update
on
where
we
are
on
the
preliminary
budgets,
and
we
looked
at
a
tiff
project
that
was
on
the
consent
agenda.
I
believe
so
that
was
it
from
planning.
I
think
I
was
actually
at
a
governance
committee
too,
since
we
last
met.
M
You
it
was
a
complete
honor
to
hand
out
diplomas
at
fargo
north,
and
I
did
defer
to
president
knudsen
so
she
could
hand
the
diplomas
to
her
daughters,
which
is
again
to
your
point.
Jennifer
such
an
honor
on
may
26.
There
was
the
governance
committee
on
june
7th.
The
governmental
affairs
committee
met
to
tracy's
point
really
what
we
tried
to
do.
We
are
required
to
meet
quarterly
as
according
to
gp7,
which
we
just
approved.
M
I
wanted
to
queue
up
the
predictable
legislative
issues
for
the
next
committee
to
prepare,
for
you
know
whatever
the
outcome
of
this
election
might
be
so
that
jackie
took
some
good
notes
as
to
what
we
should
be
considering,
which
will
be
continuing
to
change
june.
8Th
the
I
had
a
great
time
exploring
the
end
of
the
year
celebration
at
the
explorer
academy.
M
It
was
outside
and
it
was
so
much
fun
and
boy
that
that
staff
and
those
students
are
they're
kind
of
I've,
never
seen
like
a
team
between
staff
and
students
before
like
that,
they
work
together
so
beautifully
and
a
little
bit
of
a
personal
story.
I
have
watched
one
of
a
little
gal.
That's
grown
up
across
the
street
from
one
of
my
buildings
at
boys
and
girls,
clubs
and
she
has
a
really
hard
time.
Staying
in
school.
M
M
My
only
regret
is
that
we
didn't
do
this
three
years
earlier
when
we
started
this
conversation
so
kudos
to
you,
dr
lean,
incredible
incredible
efforts
at
that
school
and
I'm
very
proud
of
it.
On
june
9th
I
attended
the
fargo
moorhead
west
fargo
chamber
public
policy
committee.
It
was
stated
that
senator
shibley
will
has
plans
to
quote
overhaul
property
tax
mills,
so
I
heard
that
third
hand,
but
clearly
that
will
be
something
that
the
government
affairs
committee
meeting
committee
will
be
working
on
the
next
assigned
committee
structure.
D
So
I
was
at
the
ged
graduation
and
we
had
18,
I
believe
in
person,
and
I
think
55
was
the
number
that
successfully
met
their
requirements
for
their
ged
and
then
I
was
at
a
planning
session
this
morning
on
my
way
to
south
dakota
and
that's
it
off
note
of
the
regular
business
of
the
school.
But
I
have
to
tell
you
that
we
had
a.
I
had
a
grandson
last
monday
on
six
six
and
my
daughter
is
presently
in
the
hospital
sometime
giving
birth
to
our
granddaughter.
A
It's
pretty
cool.
I
hope
that
everyone
had
a
had
a
great
graduation
day
and
we
do
have
a
special
meeting
coming
up
june.
21St
that's
in
the
morning
and
all
board.
Members
really
ought
to
be
here
and
it
starts
at
eight
excuse
me,
it
starts
at
nine.
We
really
better
be
here
at
8
45,
I
would
say,
and
so
if
we
could
make
sure
that
we
are
in
this
room
at
8
45
on
june
21st.
That
would
be
wonderful.
Brian,
your
hand
is
up.
