The

and
we
will
go
on
to
the
presentations
for
the
from
the
school
districts
and
the
local,
the
leas.
So
before
getting
into
the
presentations
from
the
school
districts
and
the
state
public
charter
school
authority,
you
may
wish
to
the
following
information.
A
Since
the
onset
of
the
covet
19
pandemic,
various
buckets
of
emergency
relief
funding
have
been
provided
to
local
education
agencies
in
nevada
to
address
the
impact
that
covet
19
has
had
and
continues
to
have
had
on
our
k-12
schools.
The
largest
of
these
buckets
is
the
elementary
and
secondary
school
education.
A
Through
the
the
three
rounds
of
sr
funding,
nevada
has
received
nearly
1.7
billion
pursuant
to
rep
federal
rules.
90
percent
of
the
essa
funding
received
must
be
distributed
directly
to
local
education
agencies.
This
represents
nearly
1.5
billion
in
esser.
Funds
that
have
been
presented
to
leas
in
nevada
on
the
website,
for
this
subcommittee
is
a
link
to
a
table
that
breaks
out
how
much
leas
have
received
through
the
three
rounds
of
essa
funding.
A
I
would
like
to
note
that
the
sr
funding
funds
are
allocated
to
lease
in
nevada
based
on
the
proportion
of
title
one
part:
a
funds
each
lea
received
in
the
most
recent
fiscal
year
since
the
eureka
county
school
district
did
not
receive
any
title
one
funding
during
the
relevant
fiscal
year,
the
school
district
has
not
allocated
any.
The
school
district
therefore
was
not
allocated
any
s
or
funding.
A
Today,
we're
going
to
hear
presentations
from
eight
school
districts,
plus
the
state
public
charter,
school
authority
and
the
presentations
will
include
information
on
how
much
lea
is
spending
the
it's
essers
funds,
as
well
as
covet
19
emergency
relief
funding,
I'm
going
to
pass
it
over
before
we
proceed
with
the
presentations
to
mr
thorley
to
give
us
some
additional
information
at
this
time.
B
Thank
you,
madam
chair
on
the
website,
for
the
committee
is
a
table
that
the
chair
referenced
and
I
will
share
my
screen
real
quick
just
so
you
all
can
see
the
table
that
she
referenced.
If
I
can
figure
out
how
to
do
that,.
B
So
this
table
shows
how
much
each
local
education
agency
in
nevada
and
again
the
local
education
agencies,
are
the
17
school
districts
plus
the
state
public
charter
school
authority.
It
shows
how
much
each
lea
has
been
allocated
in
esser
funds
through
the
three
rounds.
Again,
the
first
round
of
esser
was
created
when
the
cares
act
was
passed
right
at
the
start
of
the
the
kobat
19
pandemic
in
march
of
2020.
B
That's
when
the
first
round
came.
The
second
round
came
in
december
of
2020
through
the
passage
of
the
coronavirus
response
and
relief,
supplemental
appropriations,
act
or
carissa
that's
commonly
referred
to
as
sr2,
and
then
the
third
round,
the
most
recent
round
was
came
through
the
passage
of
the
american
rescue
plan
act
or
arp.
B
As
the
chair
mentioned,
the
total
amount
allocated
to
local
education
agencies
in
nevada
through
the
three
rounds
is
just
under
1.5
billion
dollars
and
again
that
that
represents
approximately
90
percent.
Of
the
total
sr
funding
allocated
to
the
state
of
nevada.
The
total
amount
is
is
on
just
under
1.7
billion
dollars.
B
The
the
remaining
10
percent
is
is
held
back
in
the
demand
department.
Education
is
engaged
in
various
projects
and
providing
and
using
that
money
for
various
things
that
have
been
brought
forth
to
the
full
ifc
several
times
for
consideration
and
approval.
B
A
Committee,
are
there
any
questions
from
any
of
you?
If
I
don't
see
you,
please
feel
free
to
speak
up.
G
Absolutely
assembly
woman,
please
go
ahead.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much
with
these
split
screens,
it's
hard
to
tell
what's
going
on
so
mr
thoroughly
remind
me
so
with
the
state
public
school
charter
authority,
there
are
charter
schools
in
every
single
county,
so
that
80
million
reflects
the
entity,
but
it
doesn't
necessarily
reflect
the
dollars
in
each
county.
Is.
Is
that
number
available
anywhere?
I'm
not
asking
for
it
at
this
moment
in
time,
but
I
think
in
the
future
it
might
be
helpful
to
understand
how
that
money's
getting
divided
out
and
where
it's
going.
B
Thank
you,
assemblyman
carlton,
for
the
question
you
you
are
correct.
The
the
80
million
dollars
does
represent
the
total
amount
for
the
state
public
charter
school
authority
which,
as
you
noted,
has
schools
in
in
various
counties,
miss
rebecca
feiden
who's.
The
executive
director
of
the
state
public
charter
school
authority
will
be
presenting
later
on
the
agenda
and
I
know,
does
have
some
information
about
how
that
80
million
dollars
has
been
allocated.
B
But
I
don't
have
in
front
of
me
an
answer
to
to
that
question,
but
certainly,
if
miss
biden
doesn't
we'll
work
as
staff
to
get
you
an
answer.
G
A
C
A
chair
chair
this
is
senator,
brooks
I'm
sorry,
my.
H
F
C
C
E
E
C
Their
school
districts
as
a
result
of
the.
B
B
The
the
school
districts,
have
also
received
money
through
the
governor's
emergency
education
relief
fund,
also
known
as
gear,
and
also
other
federal
relief
funding,
such
as
the
coronavirus
relief
fund
or
crf.
So
this
table
only
reflects
the
amount
of
money
received
through
esther
funds,
but
there
are
additional
funding
sources
that
have
been
set
aside
and
allocated
a
two
school
districts,
both
well
local
education
agencies
and
state
education
agencies.
A
J
Perfect,
thank
you
very
much
chair
brad
keating
for
the
record
with
the
clark
county
school
district
with
me.
I
have
kelly
ballard
our
chief
strategy
officer,
and
we
are
excited
to
be
able
to
work
with
the
subcommittee
today
and
describe
where
we
are
currently
in
the
process
of
our
expenditures
from
the
federal
covet.
19
relief
funding.
That's
come
in.
So
without
further
ado,
we
will
get
to
some
of
the
information
and
the
numbers
just
to
provide
you
a
little
background
of
how
we
will
move
forward
today.
J
We'll
provide
an
overview
to
the
committee
on
our
sr1
expenditures,
our
sr2
expenditures,
as
well
as
our
sr3
spending
priorities
and
we'll
also
touch
upon
our
community
input
process
and
the
implementation
of
the
sr3
development
plan,
which
we're
incredibly
excited
about,
as
we
received
a
very
large
number
of
of
community
input
as
we
created
that
plan
together
just
quickly
before
kelly
walks,
you
through
the
full
a
lot
of
the
numbers
here.
I
just
wanted
to
give
you
a
quick
overview
again.
J
Wayne
did
a
wonderful
job,
walking
you
through
it
just
a
few
seconds
ago,
but
as
we
look
at
the
clark
county
school
district
ccsd
received
133
million
dollars
in
sr1
funding
the
cares
act
and
the
governor's
emergency
education
relief
fund.
We
have
currently
spent
84
million
dollars
of
that.
As
you
know,
those
funds
were
focused
on
immediate
pandemic
response.
J
When
you
look
at
esther
ii,
353
million
dollars
was
allocated
to
the
clark
county
school
district.
That's
the
coronavirus
response
and
relief
supplemental
appropriation
with
those
dollars
we
have
actually
spent,
and
I
apologize
to
the
committee.
J
I
will
make
a
change
to
this
after
after
the
presentation,
but
this
clark,
county
school
district
has
spent
150
million
dollars,
not
the
82
that
was
in
in
one
of
the
line
items,
but
150
million
of
the
353
million
dollars
has
been
allocated
and
then
the
american
rescue
plan
act
clark,
county
school
district
received
777
million
dollars
and
zero
dollars.
J
Up
to
this
point
have
been
allocated
as
we're
just
waiting
for
final
approval,
moving
forward
to
spend
those
dollars
so
with
that
I'll
pass
it
to
kelly
ballard
to
walk
through
esser
one.
Two
and
three.
H
Sure,
thank
you,
dr
keating.
You
can
see-
and
I'm
sure,
like
most
of
the
districts
on
the
call
our
sr1
spending
priorities
were
allocated
to
assist
us
with
immediate
pandemic
response.
The
biggest
bulk
of
the
money
was
the
continuity
of
in-person
learning
and
providing
distance
education
connectivity,
followed
by
a
physical,
coveted
health
mitigation.
H
We
also
the
1.9
million
there
is
to
our
pass-through
for
charters
and
for
private
schools
and
then
finally,
some
social
and
emotional
health
support
through
those
dollars.
H
When
we
look
at
sr2,
we
got
a
little
bit
more
into
still
the
response
to
the
pandemic,
some
relief.
H
We
started
planning
for
some
loss
of
learning
with
some
of
these
funds,
and
you
can
see
we
continued
some
social
emotional
wellness
support
a
little
more
direct
cost
to
support
for
curriculum
and
instruction
services,
but
then
that
there's
a
lot
of
health
support
in
here
with
our
cova
testing
and
vaccine
clinics
and
things
like
that,
and
then
some
support
for
continuing
distance
education
through
our
nevada
learning
academy.
H
But
what
you
see
here
is
really
a
breakdown
of
how
we've
organized
our
spending
priorities
in
terms
of
our
own
strategic
plan.
So
you
can
see
the
vast
majority
of
the
funds
are
directly
in
support
of
our
student
success
strategies,
followed
by
covert
19
mitigation
and
continued
response
to
pandemic
impacts.
There's
still
some
learning
related
items
in
that
category
and
I'll.
Let
dr
keating
talk
about
that
and
dr
keating
mentioned
we're
waiting
on
approval.
H
That
is
something
that
the
state
has
been
working
with
us
on.
I
think
the
ball's
in
our
court
at
this
point
so
we're
going
back
and
forth
looking
forward
to
getting
sr3
and
the
final
sr2
approval
to
move
forward.
But
dr
keating,
please
continue.
J
So
just
wanted
to
walk
the
subcommittee
through
our
sr3
plan
development,
as
I
think
it's
very
important
for
you
all
to
know
how
much
work
not
only
the
clark
county
school
district
put
in,
but
all
the
school
districts
that
are
speaking
to
you
today.
The
nevada
department
of
education
did
an
incredible
job
in
receiving
and
getting
the
application
approved
by
the
federal
government
and
the
u.s
department
of
education
so
that
we
can
move
forward
with
our
planned
development.
J
I
am
extremely
proud
of
being
a
member
of
this
team
here
at
the
clark
county
school
district
and
what
we
were
able
to
do
during
that
90-day
process.
We
held
community
input
conversations
immediately
with
all
of
our
with
a
number
of
members.
Across
the
board,
we
had
over
2200
participants
engaged
over
75
community
organizations
that
all
came
together
to
participate
and
talk
about
what
was
important
to
them
as
we
spent
these
dollars.
J
As
we
looked
to
allocate
these
dollars
in
some
way
and
to
really
listen
to
the
community
again
sr3,
it's
important
to
know
it
was
the
only
the
only
piece
of
the
puzzle
between
esser
one
two
and
three,
that
required
community
feedback
and
we
were
proud
to
participate
and
receive
the
community's
feedback
on
that.
So
after
we
had
all
of
those
conversations,
the
community
input
conversations
and
received
community
feedback.
J
We
had
over
13
000
responses
to
a
survey
that
we
put
up
the
community
advisory
committee
synthesized
all
of
the
input
that
was
given
to
them.
The
community
advisory
committee
was
made
up
of
three
community
members
from
each
clark
county
school
district
region.
They
were
selected
with
the
goal
of
convening
a
representation
representative
cross
section
of
the
diverse
community
and
synthesize
all
of
the
community
input
to
create
and
develop
a
list
of
common
themes.
So
those
common
themes
were
created.
J
There
were
27
themes,
topics
and
themes
that
were
identified
by
the
community
advisory
committee
and
at
that
point
we
moved
to
the
third
section
here
for
budget
development
aligned
to
the
inputs,
so
ccsd
staff
and
cabinet
looked
through
the
themes
that
were
identified
by
the
cac
through
the
community
input
conversations.
They
also
looked
at
covet
impact
data.
At
that
point
we
had
national
data
to
review.
We
hadn't
had
we
hadn't
had
the
chance
to
receive
the
state
data
coming
in.
J
We
had
some
interim
data
that
we
were
able
to
review,
but
we
tied
those
themes
against
what
the
data
was
showing
us
nationwide
and
then,
after
that
plan
was
put
together.
We
went
back
out
to
the
community
again
and
did
a
and
asked
the
community
to
provide
additional
survey
in
response
and
we
received
over
13
000
responses
there
and
then
the
plan
was
submitted
on
september
10th
to
the
nevada
department
of
education.
J
The
next
slide
I've
kind
of
gone
through
today
with
the
community
input
conversations
and
the
community
feedback
survey
we're
very
proud
of
the
site
we
developed
future.ccsd.net,
where
every
document
that
we
had
aligned
to
this
process
is
accessible
and
transparent
open
for
the
public
to
view.
We
also
appreciate
the
partners
on
the
screen
that
helped
us
put
this
process
together.
J
J
So
we
worked
with
a
number
of
organizations
to
help
us
do
that
so
really
excited,
and
we
are
proud
of
the
work
that
we
did
in
engaging
our
community
to
make
sure
that
our
sr3
plan
really
values
and
has
listened
to
the
input
provided
to
us
by
the
community,
and
now
I'd
like
to
pass
it
right
back
to
kelly
to
walk
through
some
of
the
themes
that
we
found
for
the
sr3
plan.
H
So
I'm
not
going
to
read
all
these
slides
to
you
but
they're
here
for
you
to
review
in
detail
if
you
like,
but
we'll
go
through
kind
of
quickly
to
give
you
an
idea
of
the
kinds
of
things
that
we
have
submitted
to
the
state
in
our
initial
spending
plan
and
then
briefly
I'll
share
with
you
some
of
the
things
that
we've
that
we
anticipate,
including
in
a
future
amendment,
because
we
continue
to
learn
and
we
continue
to
get
new
information
and
we
continue
to
try
new
things
and
have
new
ideas
about
how
we
can
help
move
our
students
forward
after
this
pandemic
and
school
closure.
H
So
I'll
start
with
our
student
success
spending
priorities
again,
these
are
aligned
to
our
strategic
plan
structures
just
a
way
for
us
to
organize
our
work
and
align
them
to
the
strategic
objectives
of
our
district
on
the
screen.
Here
you
can
see
we're
going
to
invest
in
some
literary
literacy,
professional
learning.
We
saw
a
significant
decrease
in
ela
proficiency
since
before
the
pandemic,
so
some
assistance
there
for
our
staff
will
be
important.
H
We
have
invested
in
tier
one
instructional
materials
for
math
already
we
anticipated
purchasing
tier
one
instructional
materials
for
english,
language,
arts
and
social
emotional
learning.
However,
the
the
state
approval
of
ela
materials
didn't
quite
line
up,
so
we're
going
to
move
forward
with
science
first
and
put
ela
after
that,
so
science
will
be
included
in
our
amendment.
H
We
are
using
the
sr3
dollars
to
support
mental
health
services.
This
project,
in
particular,
is
a
challenge
because
it
was
initially
envisioned
as
an
increase
in
the
number
of
mental
health
professionals
which
we're
having
trouble
staffing
so
we'll
probably
be
re-envisioning
this
services
or
this
project
as
well.
H
We
are
also
including
some
technology
upgrades
so
that
we
can
continue
to
deliver
a
one-to-one
learning
environment.
Although
we're
starting
to
talk
about
mitigating
the
effects
of
the
pandemic,
we're
still
in
it,
and
so
it's
still
critical
that
all
of
our
students
have
access
to
devices
and
content
and
internet
things
like
that,
so
that
upgrade
technology
will
continue
to
make
that
possible
for
all
of
our
students.
H
We
have
envisioned
our
community
partners
being
able
to
do
what
they
do
best
in
supporting
our
students
with
wraparound
services
and
are
anticipating
investing
some
of
our
sr
dollars
with
some
of
our
community
partners
to
support
some
of
those
activities.
H
We
have
allocated
about
23
million
dollars
to
elementary
schools
directly
to
address
the
pandemic
learning
loss
at
the
individual
school
sites
at
elementary
schools.
The
schools
have
already
received
those
funds
and
then
because
they
continue
to
have
their
carryover.
They
can
plan,
for
these
are
those
ones
throughout
the
end
of
the
sr3
funding
window
or
spending
window
and
then,
finally,
we're
providing
multiple
options
for
all
teachers
to
receive
their
ell
endorsement,
so
that
we
can
help
ensure
every
teacher
can
support
english
language
learners
across
the
district.
H
H
Looking
at
increasing
our
ability
to
provide
a
pipeline
for
those
educators
to
grow
into
school
administration
roles
and
district
administration,
district
leadership
roles,
the
next
category,
balanced
governance
and
leadership,
and
the
initially
in
our
initial
plan,
is
to
provide
some
support
to
revise
our
strategic
plan,
recognizing
that
our
objectives
are
now
all
out
the
window
with
what
situation
we
find
ourselves
in
during
the
pandemic.
H
So
we'll
need
to
do
some
refresh
about
where
we
need
to
make
some
commitments
about
student
achievement
and
what's
important
to
us
at
this
time
and
where
our
students
are
and
where
we
can
realistically
provide
support
and
recommend
or
anticipate
that
our
achievement
numbers
will
go
in
the
near
future.
A
A
H
So
in
parent
community
support
we're
investing
some
of
our
sr3
dollars
to
provide
digital
literacy,
training
to
parents
and
caregivers,
so
that
we
know
that
they
can
support
students
at
home
again
we're
still
in
the
pandemic.
There
are
still
opportunity,
or
even
students
are
still
having
to
participate
in
full-time
distance.
H
The
last
category
is
outside
of
our
strategic
plan
because
we
didn't
envision
covet
19
when
we
developed
folks
2024,
but
we
are
still
providing
support
for
responses
specifically
to
cover
19
in
terms
of
health
services,
energy
management,
learning
loss,
professional
learning.
Over
the
summer
continuing
operations,
we
have
food
service
support
for
our
summer
programs.
H
H
So
as
we
look
at
this
is
what
this
was.
Our
initial
timeline
for
development
and
implementation
of
sr3.
You
can
see
we
are
in
the
timeline
for
transitioning
from
phase
one
c
to
phase
two,
which
is
the
from
moving
from
beginning
using
to
the
use
of
federal
funds
to
implementation
status
and
plan
refresh
these
timelines
are
are
meddling
together,
a
little
bit,
obviously
we're
not
through
with
the
approval
process
for
initial
plan
and
already
are
anticipating
some
revisions.
H
H
My
belief
is
that
the
more
our
community
is
aware
of
and
understanding
of,
the
reasons
we're
making
our
decisions,
the
better
off
we
all
are
and
the
more
we
know
about
what
our
community
needs
and
expects
the
better
able.
We
are
to
provide
that.
So
I'm
really
excited,
as
dr
keating
said,
to
be
able
to
share
that
with
you
today
to
be
able
to
begin
the
work
of
sharing
this
information
with
our
community
and,
of
course,
would
be
happy
to
address
any
questions
that
the
that
the
group
might
have.
A
Thank
you
very,
very
much
and
we'll
start
with
assemblywoman.
G
G
I
do
have
a
number
of
questions,
but
I'll
only
ask
the
one
to
start
to
open
it
up
to
other
members,
so
the
mental
health
professionals
discussion
has
been
an
ongoing
discussion
for
a
very
very
long
time.
So
my
curiosity
is
what
level
of
mental
health
professional
are
you
looking
for
because
we
like
everyone
to
practice
at
the
top
of
their
license.
G
So
what
level
are
you
thinking
of
starting
at
and
what
is
the
range
of
professional
that
you're
looking
for.
H
My
understand
sorry,
kelly
ballard,
for
the
record.
My
understanding
is
that
the
bulk
of
this
plan
was
to
provide
social
workers
at
schools.
H
However,
like
I
said
on
this
slide,
we
have
been
unable
to
provide
social
workers
for
a
project-
that's
funded
with
another
set
of
funds,
so
this
team
has
been
asked
to
revisit
the
their
plan
for
this
project
and
see,
if
there's
other
ways
that
they
can
come
up
with,
to
provide
the
outcomes
that
they're
looking
for
in
terms
of
mental
health
services,
without
having
to
rely
on
the
need
to
hire
a
whole
bunch
of
professionals
that
we
do
not
believe
we
have
in
the
community
to
be
hired.
G
And
thank
you
very
much,
madam
chair
and
I
I'll
just
put
on
the
record
that
I've
worked
very
closely
with
marriage
and
family
therapists
and
other
behavioral
specialists
that
are
at
different
levels.
So
you
don't
always
have
to
go
to
that
top
rung
of
licensed
clinical
social
worker
or
licensed
social
worker.
Don't
anybody
tell
miss
madinas
thompson.
G
I
just
said
that,
but
there
are
different
levels
that
that
you
can
use
and
and
depending
upon
the
student,
a
lot
of
those
can
be
covered
under
medicaid
and
the
student
might
even
be
eligible
for
medicaid
or
through
nevada
checkup.
So
I
would
suggest
investigating
that,
because
there
are
a
lot
of
levels
out
there
and
you
want
to
start
at
the
appropriate
level.
F
Adam
chair,
this
is
assemblywoman
monroe
moreno.
Please
go
ahead,
I
see
your
hand
now.
Thank
you.
I
had
a
question
I
saw
on
slide.
It
was
eight
the
community
import
input
process
and
looking
at
the
organizations
that
you
partnered
with
and
then
when
you
go
to,
I
think
it's
13
and
your
goals
of
what
you're
going
to
do
with
the
funding,
especially
for
the
teachers,
principals
and
staff,
and
one
of
the
goals
were
to
have
the
pipeline
into
administration
for
black
and
latino
male
educators.
F
My
question
is
looking
at
who
you
partner
with
those
aren't
organizations
that
are
led
by
black
and
latino
community
members.
Knowing
you
have
a
lack
of
black
educators
in
the
classroom.
F
What's
your
plan
to
recruit
black
and
latino
male
educators?
First
of
all,
before
you
can
even
get
them
into
a
pipeline
to
be
in
administration
and
then
what
are
you
actively
doing
to
recruit
new
teachers?
We
have
a
shortage
of
teachers,
an
abundance
of
substitute
teachers
and
even
a
shortage
of
those.
So
could
you
kind
of
elaborate
of
how
you're,
using
this
funding,
to
help
the
teachers
in
the
classroom?
So
we
can
get
the
qualified
teachers
and
if
we
have
to
have
substitutes,
qualified
substitutes.
J
So
brad
keating
for
the
record
clark
county
school
district
to
assemble
with
monroe,
moreno's
question
I'll
start
and
I'll
ask
kelly
to
to
tag
team
on
the
question.
I
just
wanted
to
make
sure
and
I'll
provide
to
the
committee.
J
We
highlighted
the
organizations
that
helped
facilitate
opportunity,
180
and
pef,
and
those
organizations
that
helped
facilitate
the
community
process.
I
will
provide
to
the
committee
the
75
community
organizations
that
participated,
including
100
black
men
of
las
vegas,
the
latino
administrators
and
superintendents
las
vegas
alliance
of
black
school
administrators
clark,
county
black
caucus,
naacp
I'll,
submit
all
of
those
so
that
you
have
them
so
that
you
can
see
the
cross-section
of
community
that
came
together
for
the
plan
and
I'll
ask
kelly
to
just
touch
upon
what
what
exactly
we're
looking
at
doing.
H
Sure,
thank
you,
dr
keating
kelly
ballard
for
the
record.
This
particular
project
is
the
scope
includes
partnering,
with
national
education
organizations
and
university
universities
and
colleges
to
provide
some
pathways
for
career
advancement.
It
does
this
particular
project
does
not
address
the
the
number
or
ratio
of
black
and
latino
teachers.
H
What
would
also
include
conducting
some
research
with
for
other
large
districts
to
develop
a
specific
plan
of
action
for
each
pipeline
group?
You
know
the
other.
The
other
side
of
the
work
is
generally
reteach
teacher
recruitment
and
retention.
H
Of
the
scope
of
this
particular
project
is
going
to
include
making
sure
that
we
couple
our
data
about
from
staff
who
leave
employees
who
leave
the
district
and
why
they
leave,
but
also
embarking
on
some
really
robust
campaigns
with
our
existing
staff
about
their
working
conditions
and
what
is
important
to
them.
H
What
is
it
that
makes
them
stay
makes
them
want
to
leave.
What
is
it
that
would
make
their
lives
easier?
What
would
make
them
feel
more
supported
in
instruction
for
students
and
things
like
that
and
a
lot
of
those
things
I
think
we
can
guess,
but
in
terms
of
making
big
changes,
we
also
need
to
understand
what
thing,
what
choices,
teachers
as
a
whole
or
in
groups,
would
be
willing
to
make
in
order
to
make
their
experience
in
the
district
better.
So
that
is
not
an
esser
exclusive
piece
of
work.
H
Obviously,
that's
going
to
be
an
ongoing
challenge
for
our
district
as
we
move
forward
and
it's
still
a
little
bit
in
early
stages
of
concept,
both
in
terms
of
execution
and
in
terms
of
what
that
could
mean
for
our
district
in
terms
of
major
change.
H
But
it's
something
that
I'm
really
looking
forward
to
seeing
come
through
in
the
future.
A
Thank
you,
and
I
missed
part
of
that
because
I
just
went
away
for
a
minute.
Are
there
any
additional
questions.
A
I
I
just
have
one
question
mr
keating
and
miss
ballard
when
you
talk
about
student
success
and
if
you
already
talked
about
this,
while
I
was
trying
to
reconnect,
let
me
know,
but
when
you
talk
about
student
success
and
purchasing
tier
one
materials,
there
are
many
people
on
this
committee
who
are
not
educators.
So
could
you
give
us
a
little
background
on
that
and
tell
us
what
that
means
and
what
kind
of
things
you're
purchasing.
H
Thank
you,
madam
chair
kelly.
Ballard
for
the
record.
We
have
recent
research
on
large
urban
school
districts
that
indicates
that
districts
where
there
is
a
strong
student-centered
common
tier
one
instructional
core,
and
that
there
is
a
strong
focus
on
the
instructional
core
that
relationship
between
teachers
and
students
and
the
curriculum
that
those
districts
are
outperforming
our
district.
Those
districts
are
outperforming
districts
who
do
not
that
do
not
have
that
strong
central
curriculum
and
all
the
supports
that
go
with
it.
H
So
what
we
are
trying
to
implement
is
this
is
a
strong
curriculum
in
mathematics,
english
language,
arts
and
science,
and
also
in
social
emotional
learning,
so
that
we
can
provide
aligned,
professional
learning
so
that
everything
we
do
and
talk
about
is
in
support
of
that
core
curriculum
and
is
in
support
of
that
instructional
core
and
the
esser
dollars
will
allow
us
to
make
those
types
of
investments
in
a
shorter
timeline
than
we
normally
would
be
able
to.
H
We,
our
schools
in
clark
county,
have
the
option
to
determine
whether
or
not
they
participate
when
we
did
the
math
adoption
last
year
or
the
before,
whenever
it
was.
I
believe
there
were
less
than
five
three
to
five
schools
whose
principals
chose
to
participate
in
a
different
curriculum,
so
the
district
is
able
to
provide
a
well-rounded,
broad
and
deep
system
of
support
for
those
curricular
materials
and
for
that
content,
that's
in
support
of
the
nevada
state
content
standards.
A
So
yeah,
I
guess
what
I'm
so
with
math,
for
example
elementary
school
math.
I
understand
that
maybe
five
principals
might
not
come
forward
with
that,
but
are
we
purchasing
things
district-wide
and
asking
all
schools
to
use
that,
or,
and
and
are
we
making
sure
that
the
product
or
the
material
that
we
use
in
a
school
where
there's
more
at-risk
schools,
more
at-risk
students
is
a
different
product
or
is
it
the
same
product
that
we
use
in
a
school
who
might
have
more
students
who
have
a
increased
background
from
those
at-risk
students.
H
Thank
you
for
the
question,
madam
chair
kelly.
Ballard
for
the
record,
the
by
definition,
the
tier
one
instructional
materials
are
intended
for
all
students
when
there
are
different
needs,
teachers
and
school
leaders
will
adopt
or
utilize
a
tier,
2
and
tier
3
interventions
for
those
students
we
purchased
centrally
for
all
schools
who
chose
to
participate,
the
instructional
materials
and
align
resources
for
the
for
the
the
tier
one,
math
curriculum.
H
So
that
would
include
schools
that
are
in
more
affluent
neighborhoods
and
schools
that
are
not.
The
belief
is
that
you
provide
all
students
with
curriculum
and
instruction
that
supports
the
content
standards
and
then,
with
a
formative
assessment
going
on
daily
in
the
classroom
that
you
would
identify
students
who
are
in
need
of
additional
resources
and
interventions,
and
then
the
teachers
can
implement
those
in
the
classroom
on
a
day-to-day
basis.
A
Okay
and
then
an
additional
question
just
to
follow
up
on
assemblywoman
pearlton
in
the
mental
health.
What
do
we
see
in
the
future
for
the
school
district
to
move
forward
with
that.
H
Madam
chair
kelly,
ballard
for
the
record,
we've
got
a
few
different
avenues
that
we're
looking
at
to
support
mental
social,
emotional
health
for
students.
H
Those
include,
like
I
said,
before,
our
initial
plan
to
increase
or
actually
decrease
the
ratio
of
mental
health
professionals
to
students
in
our
schools.
That
would
include
the
social
worker
project
we
talked
about
earlier.
That
would
include
school
counselors
I'll,
take
the
advice
to
look
at
different
levels
of
mental
health
professionals
as
an
alternative
to
those
projects.
H
Also,
we
have
implemented
a
number
of
systems
both
in
terms
of
the
work
we
do
across
schools
and
in
tools
that
we
use
to
do
that
work
to
identify
when
a
student
is
in
need
of
support
and
to
trigger
a
an
allocation
of
resources
to
those
students
immediately.
It
also
allows
us
to
track
kind
of
how
the
need
of
our
students
changes
over
time.
H
We
also
recognize
that
when
school
is
out
of
session,
our
students
still
have
needs,
so
we
have
in
the
past
over
the
pandemic,
provided
contact
lines
and
support
for
students
when
school
was
out
of
session
over
winter
break,
for
example,
and
things
like
that,
so
we
continue
to
anticipate
supporting
the
mental
health
and
of
students
that
way.
Also,
the
district
has
implemented
a
number
of
resources
for
mental
health
for
staff
and
employees.
H
We
know
that
we've
asked
our
employees
to
do
things
this
year
that
they've
never
had
to
do
before.
We've
turned
their
classrooms
upside
down.
H
We've
even
changed
how
they
have
to
report
to
work
every
day,
we've
implemented
health
safety
precautions
that
impact
their
ability
to
report
to
work
every
day
in
some
cases,
and
so
we
recognize
that
our
staff
has
social
emotional
needs
as
well,
and
we've
provided
some
resources
over
the
pandemic
for
staff
as
well
to
get
in
touch
with
mental
health
providers,
also
financial
advisors
and
assistants,
and
things
like
that.
A
Okay,
thank
you
very
much.
I
appreciate
that
explanation.
You,
you
all
know
that
I've
sponsored
mental
health
bills
and
I
think
that
this
is
just
really
important
during
this
time.
I
would
just
request.
Oh,
I
see
assemblywoman
monroe
mourinho.
Would
you
like
to
ask
a
question?
Please
go
ahead.
I.
F
Was
just
I'm
going
along
the
same
line?
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
When
we
talk
about
mental
health,
we're
coming
up
to
summer
break,
what
are
we
going
to?
Is
there
any
plans
in
place
for
summer
school,
helping
our
kids
through
the
summer?
We
know
how
they
were
at
home,
what
we're
dealing
with
with
mental
health?
What
are
the
plans
for
summer
school
with
our
kids?
If
there
is
one.
H
Thank
you,
madam
chair
kelly,
valerie
for
the
record.
Last
year
we
implem,
I
know
you
asked
for
this
year
and
I'm
starting
with
last
year.
It
sounds
silly,
but
I'll
connect
it.
I
promise.
Last
year
we
implemented
a
number
of
summer
programs.
We
had
almost
72
000
kids
in
summer
acceleration
activities
at
schools,
almost
14
000
in
summer
school
we
provided
transportation
to
most
of
those
we
provided
meals
during
those
activities,
and
we
anticipate
doing
the
same
thing.
H
This
year
there
will
be
multiple
summer
activities
at
all
schools
if
the
depending
on
this
was
a
very
expensive
prospect
last
year,
because
we
provided
it
at
all
schools,
regardless
of
how
many
students
were
participating.
So
we
have
a
little
bit
more
time
to
garner
the
interest
from
students
and
know
what
kind
of
demand
we'll
be
seeking.
So
we
could
make
some
better
informed
decisions
about
efficiency
this
summer,
while
still
providing
that
opportunity
to
any
student
who
wants
to
take
advantage
of
it.
H
My
own
kids
participated
in
summer
acceleration
last
year
and
were
surprised
to
find
that
it
wasn't
play
time
all
day
long
which
made
me
happy.
So
we
anticipate
doing
the
same
thing
with
a
good
balance
of
addressing
some
of
the
learning
loss
challenges,
while
also
keeping
their
kids
our
kids
connected
to
our
schools
connected
to
each
other
and
connected
to
those
adult
relationships
that
are
so
important.
F
Thank
you,
madam
chair,
for
the
question,
and
thank
you
for
the
response.
I
think
it's
important
for
our
kids
as
they're
dealing
with
this
pandemic.
Their
mental
health,
but
the
summer
program
that
you
offered
last
year
did
benefit
a
number
of
of
kids
and
it
kept
them
on
track
and
for
some
and
even
help
them
excel
as
they
got
into
the
classroom
this
year.
So
thank
you.
A
And
thank
you
for
that
question
because
that
was
going
to
be
my
next
comment.
I
was
going
to
ask
for
some
further
information
about
the
summer
school
back
on
track
bill
that
was
passed
and
how
that
was
going
to
move
forward
this
coming
summer
session.
I
think
it's
important
that
we
offer
it
to
all
students
around
the
community.
A
Those
dollars
are
really
put
to
good
use,
and
I
know
along
with
many
others
on
here.
Not
only
did
I
know
many
children
that
attended
my
own
grandchildren
attended
and
it
was
very
beneficial.
A
So
with
that
I
would,
if
I
don't
see
any
additional
questions,
I
would
request
from
you
continued
reporting
and
continually
letting
us
know
what's
going
on,
so
that
we
have
that
accountability
piece,
because
this
is
a
lot
of
money
and
so
communicate,
please
often
and
clearly,
and
don't
hesitate
to
reach
out.
A
I
also
would
request
that
if
we
hear
another
presentation,
I'm
hoping
as
with
the
rest
of
the
superintendents
that
are
on
today,
I
would
hope
that
superintendent
jarrow
would
find
time
to
come
and
present
to
us
knowing
full
well
that
1.2
billion
dollars
is
a
lot
of
money
and
a
lot
of
accountability,
and
we
appreciate
his
leadership
but
would
also
like
to
hear
from
him
directly
so
certainly
appreciate,
miss
ballard
and
dr
keating
being
here
with
us
today.
A
I
don't
see
any
additional
questions
and
no
additional
hands
up.
We
will
thank
you
for
your
presentation
and
we
will
move
on
to
washoe
county
school
district
and
we
welcome
dr
kristen
mcneill
and
lindsay
anderson
and
dr
mcneil.
Thank
you
so
much
for
making
time
in
your
day
and
addressing
how
important
this
information
is
for
us
to
hear
directly
from
you
as
the
superintendent.
So
please
go
ahead
when
you're
ready.
K
Oh,
absolutely
and
good
to
see
you
chair,
don
dondero,
loop
and
and
obviously
good
to
see
everyone
from
the
nevada,
legislature's
interim
finance
committee
subcommittee
to
advise
on
the
expenditure
of
our
federal
relief
dollars.
K
You
know
these
dollars
have
an
important
role
in
providing
support
for
all
of
our
students
and
our
staff
members,
and
so
I
hope
to
be
able
to
present
a
robust
presentation
and
please,
if
you
all,
have
any
questions
at
the
end
of
our
presentation.
Please
do
not
hesitate
to
ask,
as
you
mentioned,
I
do
have
lindsay
anderson,
our
director
of
government
relations,
who
is
going
to
assist
me
in
moving
the
slides
and
then
I
also
have
our
chief
accountability
officer,
mr
joe
ernst.
K
So
today,
on
our
update
for
you
all,
we
are
going
to
go
over
how
we
are
spending
our
esters,
one
two
and
three
dollars
we'll
review
some
of
the
key
data
points.
We
would
like
to
also
review
some
of
the
major
funding
categories
that
we
have
invested
these
dollars
in
we're
going
to
show
you
a
picture
of
our
essers
website.
As
you
all
know,
there
is
a
lot
of
reporting
a
lot
of
transparency
around
these
dollars
and
we
have
developed
a
very
easy
website.
K
If
you,
google,
washoe
county
school
district
and
essers,
our
website
automatically
will
pop
up
and
then
we'd
like
to
spend
a
little
bit
of
time
with
you
on
how
we
are
evaluating
and
monitoring
these
dollars.
K
I
just
wanted
to
very
quickly
remind
the
committee
on
statistics
about
our
school
district.
We
are
the
second
largest
school
district.
As
you
know,
in
the
state
of
nevada,
roughly
13
percent
of
the
state
student
population
we
now,
thankfully,
to
wc1,
we
have
110
schools.
Our
fy
general
fund
budget
is
approximately
541
million
dollars.
It's
the
largest
general
fund
budget
in
washoe
county
that
we
manage.
We
have
over
8
000
employees
with
our
washington,
county,
family
and
4.
500
of
those
are
dedicated
instructional
staff.
K
If
you
would
there,
we
go
so
for
esther's
one.
Our
funds
were
used
to
mitigate
the
most
pressing
needs
of
our
through
the
pandemic.
While
we
know
that
every
student
has
been
affected
by
covid,
our
data
shows
also
that
our
children
in
transition,
our
homeless
population
and
high
poverty
students
have
been
disproportionately
impacted
by
covid.
K
With
these
dollars,
we
have
been
able
to
invest
in
personal
protective
equipment,
hot
spots,
for
our
families,
more
teachers
in
the
classroom
for
social,
distancing,
basic
needs
for
our
children
in
transition,
and
we
are
currently
on
track
to
spend
down
these
funds.
I
would
also
like
to
point
out
that
the
nevada
department
of
education
completed
their
first
audit
of
our
sr1
funds
and
we
showed
no
findings
as
we
move
into
essers
2,
the
corona
response
and
relief
supplemental
appropriation
of
approximately
34
million
dollars.
K
These
funds
are
being
used
to
mitigate
and
to
begin
the
recovery
for
our
students
and
staff.
As
you
all
know,
the
federal
legislation
focused
on
disproportionate
students
most
affected
by
the
pandemic.
Our
funding
went
to
a
robust
summer
school
program,
tutoring
in
all
of
our
schools.
Technology
needs
more
staff
to
serve
our
most
vulnerable
student
populations,
and
we
also
made
an
intense
focus
on
accelerated
learning
and
emotional
supports
for
our
students
and
staff.
K
K
Many
of
our
schools
are
going
to
be
going
through
some
capital
project
projects
and
so
we're
going
to
be
doing
some
different
types
of
summer
school
programming
so
that
we
can
maximize
the
use
of
of
not
only
our
buildings,
but
also
our
limited
transportation
needs
as
we
as
we
struggle
to
have
bus
drivers,
but
our
summer
school
program
is
on
track.
We
are
getting
a
lot
of
input
from
our
teachers
who
were
boots
on
the
ground.
K
Last
summer
we
had
summer
school
for
four
weeks
three
days
a
week
and
we
provided
nutrition
services
and
transportation.
So
again
with
our
our
programming
moving
forward,
we
hope
to
have
another
robust
summer
school
program
as
we
move
into
the
american
rescue
plan
of
approximately
77
million
dollars
for
the
school
district.
We
focused
on
the
safe
return
to
school.
As
you
all
know,
washoe
county
was
one
of
the
largest
urban
school
districts
that
maintained
in-person
learning.
K
K
Again,
we
focused
on
personal
protective
equipment,
hot
spots,
additional
staffing
within
our
schools
and
basic
needs
for
our
children
in
transition.
We
were
able
to
make
choices
for
resources
around
learning,
recovery
and
student
well-being,
including
social
emotional
support.
We
were
also
able
to
support
professional
learning
for
our
teachers
and
maintenance,
with
our
heating
ventilation
and
air
conditioning
systems,
and
we
are
currently
on
track
to
spend
down
those
dollars
for
our
essers
3,
such
as
other
school
districts
that
you
will
be
hearing
from
and
our
friends
down
in
clark
county.
K
We
did
a
very
robust
effort
in
getting
out
to
our
community
and
making
sure
that
our
community
was
very
much
involved
in
the
use
of
our
essers
3
dollars,
which
is
a
federal
mandate
with
the
use
of
these
dollars.
And
what
you
see
in
front
of
you
are
actually
the
survey
results.
We
had
over
9
000
responses,
and
you
will
see
that
the
number
one
request
throughout
was
instructional
support,
as
well
as
instructional
support
for
our
students
and
then
supports
for
our
struggling
students.
Those
were
the
top
needs,
as
well
as
emotional
sports
and
technology.
K
Making
sure
that
essers
three
from
the
state
as
well,
that
we
must
consult
with
our
community
stakeholders
every
six
months
and
so
the
nevada
department
of
education
requires
our
stakeholders
include:
department
of
health
and
human
services,
juvenile
justice,
special
education,
civil
rights,
equity
and
diversity
and
representative
from
both
of
our
tribes.
K
Our
groups
include
parents
and
teachers
and
students,
we're
very
proud
that
we
had
students
involved
with
the
use
of
our
esser
dollars
and
community
members
from
key
organizations
that
work
directly
and
what
you
see
in
front
of
you
is
actually
our
community
stakeholder
panel.
Our
community
group
first
met
in
june
of
2021
and
scored
41
different
proposals.
K
K
There
are
six
categories
that
we
have
funding
for
essers3
and
those
include
student
learning,
which
we
have
allocated
the
the
majority
of
our
dollars
of
57.5
million
student
well-being
at
2.7
million
teacher
support
at
2.1
million
family
support
at
1.3
million
district
support
at
1.9
million
and
other
support
inc
at
4.8
million.
These
categories
are
all
interconnected
to
help
us
serve
the
most
disproportionate
students
affected
by
the
pandemic
and
provide
supports
to
our
teachers
and
families.
K
There
is
absolutely
overlap
between
these
dollars
and
these
categories,
and
this
will
become
clear
as
we
go
through
the
next
few
slides
for
our
student
learning,
which
is
the
bulk
of
that
funding.
We
have
allocated
again
on
community
feedback
as
well
as
input
from
our
students,
staff
and
families.
Almost
75
percent
of
the
77
million
dollars
is
going
directly
on
student
learning
to
address
learning
recovery.
K
We
have
also
used
these
dollars
to
help
with
class
size
reduction
in
grades
one
through
three,
and
we
have
a
unique
program
in
the
washoe
county
school
district,
where
our
middle
and
our
high
schools
were
actually
able
to
design
programs
within
their
own
schools
that
address
their
specific
needs.
Around
learning,
loss
and
social
emotional
support.
K
We
were
also
able
to
purchase
textbooks.
Our
curriculum
and
instruction
department
continues
to
partner
with
the
nevada
department
of
education.
These
are
our
next
textbooks
in
line
for
adoption.
The
textbook
adoption
will
obviously
go
through
our
normal
procedures
of
review
by
staff
and
families,
as
well
as
our
final
approval
by
our
board
of
trustees.
K
The
s
or
three
dollars
will
be
able
to
finance
these
adoptions
that
we
have
been
delayed
due
to
budget
reductions
over
the
last
years.
So
having
these
additional
textbooks
is
a
huge
support
for
our
schools.
We
were
also
able,
through
grades
six
through
eight
offer
online
intervention
programs
again
summer.
School
will
be
used
with
our
s
or
three
dollars
and,
as
I
mentioned,
our
rally
grants.
K
We
also
have
been
able
to
invest
in
a
substance,
abuse
misuse
prevention,
specialist
who
will
provide
evidence-based
prevention
and
intervention
programs
and
assist
our
teachers
in
connecting
students
with
outside
providers
when
those
are
needed.
We
have
a
very
robust
student
voice
program
here
within
our
district
that
we're
very
proud
about.
We
have
a
student
advocacy
and
a
student
advisory
panel.
K
Our
student
voice
facilitator
will
work
with
our
student
voice
coordinator
to
work
with
our
groups
of
students
across
all
of
our
districts
to
gain
insights
and
feedback
from
our
students.
We
also
have
contracted
with
our
partner
the
children's
cabinet
to
provide
signs
of
suicide
screening
in
every
single
one
of
our
middle
schools.
I
was
just
out
of
middle
school,
the
other
day
where
our
screening
is
being
implemented
and
then
the
living
ideation
in
our
high
schools.
K
Our
teacher
support
for
2.1
million
will
include
supports
to
teachers,
which
we
know
is
absolutely
paramount,
as
our
teachers
have
been
heroes
through
this
entire
time
as
they've
been
navigating
our
pandemic.
This
also
includes
some
retention
strategies,
as
we
try
to
minimize
as
best
as
possible,
the
great
resignation
that
is
happening.
We
have
been
able
to
help
out
with
our
textbook
adoption
our
curriculum
and
instruction
trainers
will
be
able
to
assist
our
teachers
on
providing
that
support.
That's
going
to
be
needed
once
we
implement
the
textbooks.
K
K
We've
been
able
to
engage
our
teachers
with
professional
learning
communities
around
math
and
language
arts,
and
these
are
ways
where
our
teachers
are
being
are
able
to
cross
the
collaborate
across
our
schools,
not
only
within
their
schools
but
across
our
schools,
so
that
they
can
share
best
practices
in
grades.
Six
through
nine
we've.
K
We
were
able
to
provide
support
through
an
equity
and
diversity
trainer
which
works
in
our
equity
diversity
department
to
provide
additional
support
for
our
teachers
and
families,
and
we
are
very
proud
of
our
scholarships
to
help
with
our
pathway
where
we
can
grow
our
own,
aspiring
special
education
teachers
from
just
within
our
own
school
district.
K
Our
family
support
includes
populations
again
that
are
most
infected
by
the
pandemic.
Our
children
and
transition
liaisons
provide
direct
support
to
our
families,
who
may
be
in
shelters
or
actually
doubled
up,
and
so
our
our
cit
liaisons
provide
direct
support
to
our
families
and
importantly,
our
family.
Graduation
advocates
our
native
american
graduation
advocates
work
directly
with
our
students
who
may
be
off
track
in
their
high
school
pathway,
and
so
they
are
able
to
meet
with
those
families
and
counselors
and
help
our
students
get
back
on
track
and,
finally,
our
district
support.
K
We
are
able
to
infuse
our
three
dollars
to
make
sure
that
we
have
supports
around
a
mechanical
technician
for
our
hvac
systems,
replacement
of
cleaning
equipment
throughout
our
school
district
and
then
obviously
support
for
our
grants
department
to
have
staff
to
manage
all
of
our
federal,
coveted
relief,
and
that
includes
those
positions
that
are
listed
up
there
on
the
screen
for
you.
K
K
Other
costs
include
indirect
costs
which
help
support
our
human
resources,
payroll,
I.t
and
business
functions,
and
then
finally,
srs
3
will
cover
some
of
the
pandemic
related
unemployment
claims
incurred
during
the
summer
of
2021.,
as
I
mentioned
before,
we
want
to
make
sure
that
all
of
the
uses
of
our
esther's
dollars,
starting
with
esters
one
and
on
through
esther's,
two
and
three,
are
very
transparent
and
very
accessible
to
our
entire
community
and
across
the
state.
Again,
if
you
just
google,
wcsd,
esser
or
fund
our
website,
washoeschools.net
backslash
essers
will
pop
up.
K
It
is
in
a
language
that
is
very
easy
to
understand
and
it
showcases
all
of
our
news
stories
as
well,
because
we
also
want
to
highlight
all
the
good
things
that
our
dollars
are
going
towards
within
our
school
district.
This
website
is
updated
on
a
very
frequent
basis
as
with
any
grant,
and
especially
with
the
largest
infusion
of
federal
dollars,
our
school
district
and
I'm
sure
my
colleagues
would
agree
that
our
school
districts
have
ever
seen.
K
You
need
a
very
in-depth
evaluation
plan,
and
so
we
are
going
to
be
carrying
forward
with
the
hiring
of
a
0.5
full-time,
equivalent
program
evaluator,
as
well
as
a
data
analyst.
K
We
are
happy
to
announce
that,
with
this
evaluation,
we
were
able
to
show
that
we've
had
over
1463
credits
earned
over
summer
school
again,
1463
credits
earned
over
our
summer
school.
We
were
also
able
to
showcase
our
english
language.
K
Our
accountability
office
with
support
from
these
1.5
positions
will
be
supporting
a
comprehensive
evaluation
of
our
esther's
funding,
with
a
focus
on
the
four
impact
high
leverage
programming
components
that
we
have
shared
with
you
again.
We
are
very
proud
of
all
of
our
efforts
here
and
for
next
steps
for
our
monitoring.
K
We
will
be
able
to
implement
our
programming
with
our
ss3
dollars.
We
will
continue
to
review
staffing
over
the
next
two
years.
We
will
continue
to
monitor
the
budget
for
salary
and
any
types
of
other
savings
that
we
would
be
able
to
incorporate
into
budget
revisions,
and
we
will
be
sharing
that
not
only
with
our
board
but
obviously
within
our
our
public
and
our
website,
and
we
will
be
setting
up
regular
data
and
check-in
meetings
with
staff
to
evaluate
what's
working
and
what
may
not
be
working,
it's
critically
important
that
we
are
able
to
pivot.
K
So
again.
I
thank
you
greatly
for
allowing
us
the
opportunity
to
present
to
you
today
and
supporting
all
of
our
efforts,
and
if
I
just
had
one
ask
of
of
our
committees
and
all
of
our
stakeholders
is
that
we
continue
to
work
together
to
do
whatever
that
we
need
to
keep
our
schools
open
so
that
we
can
deploy
all
of
our
supports
for
our
students
and
our
families
and
our
staff.
So
thank
you
once
again
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
L
Thank
you
so
much
sharon.
With
your
permission,
I
have
a
just
a
few
questions.
If
I
can
ask
of
our
superintendent
absolutely
good
to
see
you.
L
L
I
I'd
like
to
just
actually
point
to
the
all
survey
responses
on
that
slide
and
just
as
an
observation,
it's
intriguing
to
me
that
across
the
board,
whether
it
was
employees
or
family
or
students
or
community,
the
lowest
category
of
priority
was
the
code
mitigation,
and
I
don't
mean
that
to
say
that
all
of
those
groups
did
not
care
deeply
about
safety.
L
I
interpret
that
more
that
you've
done
a
good
job
in
ensuring
that
you
have
the
mitigation
strategies
in
place
and
that
by
keeping
that
baseline
for
our
students,
our
staff
families
to
keep
them
safe,
even
while
keeping
them
open
the
other
priorities
rose
to
the
top,
and
so
I
just
you're
shaking
your
head.
I
don't
know
if
you
want
to
comment
on
that
or
add
to
that,
but
I
just
found
that
very
a
very
stark
observation
right
off
the
bat.
K
No,
I
appreciate
that
very
much
and-
and
you
know
obviously,
this
was
during
a
time
right
before
you
know
the
omicron
variant
hit,
and
so
it
would
be
interesting
to
note
you
know
if
there
were
any
changes,
but
I
can
absolutely
tell
you
you
know,
even
when
I'm
going
out
to
schools
today,
it's
the
instructional
support
directly
to
in
our
classrooms.
K
The
dollars
need
to
hit
directly
into
our
classrooms,
and
so
our
district
has,
as
well
as
other
districts
across
the
state,
have
done
a
tremendous
effort
on
making
sure
that
first
of
all,
we
have
pp
e
that
that
we
have
cleaning
supplies,
that
our
hvac
systems
are
up
and
running,
but
the
constant
reminders,
the
self
screening
that
we
have
on
our
websites,
that
that
our
families
and
our
staff
do
every
single
day,
and
I
will
share
with
you-
you
know
in
the
washoe
county,
school
district
masks
are
mandatory
and
our
students
and
our
staff
have
done
a
phenomenal
job
on
making
sure
that
they
are
in
compliance
with
that,
whether
they
are
on
the
buses
or
in
the
classrooms
every
once
in
a
while.
K
We
have
to
send
out
a
reminder,
but
you
know
it's
for
the
best
interest
to
keep
everybody
safe,
and
I
appreciate
the
recognition
of
that
assemblywoman
tolls.
L
Thanks
to
everyone,
who's
doing
their
part
from
students
to
teachers,
so
I
do
have
about
three
other
quick
categories
of
questions
and
it's
very
clear
across
the
board.
The
social
emotional
support
is
is
critical
and
student
well-being
support
that
came
across
loud
and
clear,
and
has
certainly
resonated
with
everything
that
I've
seen
in
the
schools
and
conversations
that
I've
had.
K
Oh
absolutely
and
we
were
able
to
invest,
you
know,
obviously
with
essers
one
we
were
able
to
invest,
and
that
was
really
like
around
the
cove
mitigation
efforts
right
off.
The
bat
with
you
know,
like
I
said,
the
pp
and
e
and
then
also
with
our
esters
two
dollars.
We
did
invest
quite
a
bit
around
social,
emotional
support
that
included
crisis,
counselors
our
social
workers
and
then
mtss
coaches
as
well.
So
we
have
spent
quite
a
bit
of
funding
around
those
supports.
K
We
obviously
want
to
make
sure
that
our
counselors,
our
mtss
coaches,
are
easily
deployed
so
that
when
we
do
have
a
situation
within
our
schools
that
we
are
able
to
provide
that
support,
we
have
added
mtss
multi-tiered
systems
of
support,
as
well
as
our
social
workers,
and
I
can't
stress
enough
the
importance
of
our
social
workers
that
they
have
been
able
to
provide
direct
wrap
around
services
and
that's
where
we're
able
to
also
find
out
whether
a
family
is
struggling
with
basic
food
needs.
K
We
know
that
a
lot
of
our
families
are
in
crisis
because
of
loss
of
of
jobs,
so
our
social
workers
are
able
to
get
that
support
and
then
also
our
counselors
are
able
to
provide
additional
support.
We've
also
been
able
to
look
into
telehealth,
and
some
of
our
schools
have
been
able
to
engage
in
telehealth
use.
K
We
just
did
a
presentation
to
our
board
the
other
day
on
telehealth
and
the
importance
of
telehealth,
and
I
would
imagine
that,
as
we
move
forward
with
this,
telehealth
is
going
to
be
something
that
we're
going
to
be
engaging
with
throughout
the
the
recovery
period.
L
Thank
you
for
that,
and
I
know
that
we
haven't
fully
expended
the
rest
of
those
sr3
funds,
so
I
would
always
be
a
strong
advocate
for
seeing
where
we
could
maybe
use
what's
left,
to
continue
to
support,
because
I
know
that
that's
the
number
one
thing
I'm
hearing
from
teachers
and
parents
and
students,
and
that
leads
me
to
the
next
point.
Just
the
prioritization
slide,
that
I
see
that
professional
and
learning
and
planning
is
in
maybe
the
lower
half
of
of
that.
L
And
I
completely
understand
that
when
you're
in
crisis,
when
you're
in
survival
mode,
when
you're
in
just
trying
to
stabilize
that,
tends
to
take
triage
level
prioritization.
But
I
want
to
make
sure
that
that
we
still
have
it
in
the
back
of
our
mind
that
that
professional
learning
and
planning
piece
makes
its
way
back
up.
Because
I
I
know
that
one
of
the
reasons
that
we're
having
a
difficult
time
with
social
workers
school
psychologists
is,
we
have
a.
L
And
so
I
I
know
that
part
of
recovering
from
this
is
is
going
to
be
years
in
the
making,
as
we
recover
just
across
the
board,
from
the
great
resignation
that
we've
noted
that
we've
seen
all
around,
and
so
maybe
just
confirmation
that,
just
because
that's
bumped
down
on
the
list
in
triage
mode,
we
haven't
lost
sight
of
the
critical
importance
of
putting
that
back
up,
not
just
for
our
students
sake,
but
for
our
future
workforce
sake.
K
A
Superintendent,
I'm
sorry
to
interrupt,
but
just
before
you
answer
that
question,
would
you
please
state
your
name
for
the
record,
so
our
secretaries
that
are
listening
can
keep
track
of
who's
talking.
Thank
you.
K
Absolutely
that's
something
I
always
forget.
My
apologies,
dr
kristen
mcneill
superintendent
of
the
washoe
county
school
district
for
the
record.
Thank
you
very
much
for
the
question.
Assemblywoman
tolls.
So
for
our
professional
learning
and
I
absolutely
understand
the
importance
of
professional
learning-
and
you
know
right
now,
as
as
we
are
working
to
make
sure
that
our
classrooms
are
covered
with
with
our
our
staff.
So
you
know
we've
had
to
deploy
central
services
staff
and
a
lot
of
times.
Those
are
the
staff
members
that
are
providing
that
professional
learning.
K
However,
we
have
in
the
washoe
county
school
district.
We
have
early
release
wednesdays,
where
our
staffs
are
involved
with
professional
learning
communities.
We
have
engaged
upon
a
three-year
initiative
for
professional
learning
communities
to
make
sure
that
our
teachers
have
the
ability
of
time
to
make
sure
that
they
are
looking
at
student
data
that
they
are
looking
at
essential
standards.
We've
done
a
lot
of
work,
around
alignment
of
essential
standards
and
assessment
throughout
our
school
district,
and,
as
you
know,
we
just
this
monday.
K
On
february
7th
and
again
on
april
18th,
we
were
able
to
have
approved,
thankfully,
from
the
nevada
department
of
education
two
days
where
our
teachers
and
our
principals
are
going
to
be
able
to
engage
in
time
looking
at
their
school
support
plans,
but
also
working
in
the
professional
learning
communities
and
and
just
having
time
as
teachers.
As
you
all
know,
one
of
the
resounding
things
that
we
hear
from
our
teachers
is
that
they
just
need
time.
K
They
have
been
working
so
so
hard
for
our
for
our
students
and
they
need
time
to
plan.
They
need
time
to
work
together,
and
so
we
are
are
looking
forward
to
these
two
additional
days.
But,
yes,
professional
learning
is
still
of
of
great
importance.
L
Thank
you,
madam
chair
last
question.
If
I
may
please
thank
you
so
much,
and
I
also
noticed
in
the
sr3
slides
that
one
of
the
uses
of
that
funding
was
towards
sustaining
safe
operations,
which
included
reducing
class
sizes
for
grades,
one
through
three
being
able
to
hire
more
teachers
to
reduce
those
class
sizes.
I
am
a
big
believer
in
that
one
of
the
first
things
that
motivated
me
to
get
involved
with,
advocating
and
be
here
today
on
that
issue.
L
Do
we
see
that
there's
going
to
be
a
transition
from
when
this
grant
period
ends
to
then
picking
up
with
those
new
dedicated
funding
streams
that
we
have
in
place
that
we'll
be
able
to
have
a
a
a
smooth
off
ramp
from
this
short-term
funding
to
that
long-term
funding,
so
that
we
can
keep
those
class
sizes
reduced
and
continue
to
keep
those
teachers
and
not
have
a
cliff
that
we're
falling
off.
K
Oh,
I
appreciate
the
question
kristen
mcneill
superintendent,
for
the
washoe
county
school
district
and
yes,
I
mean,
obviously
we
we
know
of
the
funding
cliff
and
we
are
working
very
hard
to
make
sure
that
that
we
do
have
an
off
ramp
and
so
over
the
next
two
to
three
years.
You
know
we
have,
we
have
mapped
out
and
then
also
our
cfo
is
going
to
be
presenting
actually
a
four-year
budgetary
plan,
as
we
spend
down
these.
K
These
essers
dollars
and
part
of
that
is
the
use
of
esther's
dollars
on
a
limited
amount,
as
we
go
through
fy24
and
into
fy25
and
how
those
dollars
are
going
to
be
able
to
be
spent.
K
But
we
are
looking
at
that
across
the
board
in
all
of
the
areas
for
for
essers,
1,
2
and
3,
and
how
those
dollars
are
going
to
be
expended
so
that
that
cliff,
you
know,
will
hopefully
not
be
such
a
cliff
part
of
the
plan
that
we
have
in
using
part
of
our
essers
three
dollars
on
a
budget
revision
that
we
just
presented
to
our
board
is
actually
the
development
as
a
leadership
pathway.
K
As
you
all
know,
many
of
our
school
districts,
we
are
reaching
the
point
where
many
of
our
employees
are
going
to
be
reaching
their
28th
29th
and
30th
year,
and
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we
have
a
leadership
pipeline
in
place
within
our
school
district.
And
so
we
are
going
to
be
engaging
upon
a
leadership
pathway
where
we
are
going
to
be
able
to
invest
these
dollars
to
make
sure
that
we
have
principals
that
are
ready
to
take
the
helm.
K
Because,
as
you
all
know,
one
of
the
greatest
indicators
of
student
success
is
a
leadership
leader
in
every
single
school
and
in
front
a
highly
highly
effective
teacher
in
front
of
our
students.
And
so
we're
going
to
be
using
some
of
these
dollars
to
help
with
that
leadership
pathway.
K
And
then,
as
attrition
happens,
those
positions
would
then
just
be
able
to
be
picked
up
by
the
general
fund.
As
we
move
forward.
L
Thank
you
so
much
for
all
your
answers
and
thank
you
chair
for
the
indulgence
of
all
my
questions
and
thank
you
superintendent.
This
may
be
the
last
time
that
we
get
to
interact
in
this
type
of
forum,
and
I
just
want
to
recognize
your
unquestioned
dedication
to
kids
in
our
school
district
and
your
tireless
personal
sacrifices
of
energy
time
sleep
to
get
us
through.
L
C
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
I
just
had
I
had
one
question
and
I
too
want
to
thank
superintendent.
Mcneil
she's
done
an
amazing
job
and
you
know,
as
the
work's
just
been
so
difficult
across
the
state,
so
I
appreciate
the
work
that
you've
been
doing.
So
my
question
is:
around
summer
school
my
understanding
was,
it
was
very
difficult
to
get
teachers
because
they
were
working
so
hard
during
the
regular
year
to
sign
up
for
summer
school.
C
K
Thank
you
so
much
and
for
the
record:
kristin
mcneil
superintendent
of
the
washoe
county
school
district
and
thank
you
so
much
assemblywoman
ganzart.
So
I'm
sorry
senator
gansker,
that's
not
my
apologies,
so
we
were
actually
able
to
enroll
over
10
500
students
for
next
for
last
summer
school
year
and,
as
I
said,
we
would
be
more
than
happy
to
share
a
very
in-depth
analysis
of
that.
We
have
started
to
make
plans
for
our
summer
school
going
into
summer
of
2022..
K
We
wanted
to
make
sure
that
we
were
able
to
reach
out
to
families,
students
and
staff
and
to
get
their
input
on
what
they
would
like
to
see.
It's
looking
like,
we
will
still
have
the
three
days
a
week
between
four
and
five
weeks
of
summer
school
last
year.
We
really
wanted
to
spend
time
on
making
summer
school
engaging
and,
if
you
remember
back
at
that
time,
we
were
our
emphasis
was
making
sure
that
our
families
felt
safe
coming
into
the
school
building.
K
I
want
to
assure
our
students
that
are
listening,
that,
yes,
it
will
still
be
fun
and
engaging,
but
but
we
are
going
to
make
sure
that
we
have
all
of
the
academic
needs
for
our
students
available
as
well
too
and
for
teachers.
You
know
one
of
the
issues
you're
absolutely
right.
Our
teachers
were
absolutely
exhausted,
they're,
exhausted
now
and
so.
K
Finding
ways
that
we're
going
to
be
able
to
engage
our
the
hiring
of
teachers
and
from
what
we
were
able
to
find
out
is
that
they
really
did
like
the
three
days,
because
that
gave
them
the
mondays
and
the
fridays
to
be
able
to
have
a
longer
weekend
period,
and
so
we're
going
to
be
able
to
keep
that
schedule.
At
this
point
in
time.
C
K
We
were
actually
able
to
meet
the
needs
of
all
of
our
students
and
I
think
chris
mcneil
superintendent
for
the
washoe
county
school
district
for
the
record.
I
think
one
of
the
limiting
factors
that
we're
going
to
be
seeing
as
we
roll
into
this
year-
and
I
know
I've
stated
this
publicly-
is
going
to
be
the
needs
around
transportation,
our
our
transportation.
K
We
are
losing
bus
drivers
and
we
are,
we
are
hanging
on
by
a
thread
in
order
to
provide
transportation,
and
so
with
that
we
will
most
likely
have
to
have
regional
hubs
for
summer
school.
I
also
mentioned
earlier
in
the
presentation.
C
A
Okay,
I
don't
see
any
more
questions.
Dr
mcneil,
I
want
to
also
thank
you
very
much
for
all
your
hard
work.
I've
known
you
many
many
years
prior
to
this
position
as
well
and
always
appreciate
your
professionalism
and
the
fact
that
you
show
up-
and
I
understand
you
are
even
subbing
in
classrooms,
so
kudos
to
you
as
we
face
this
unsure
time
for
our
students.
A
So
thank
you
very
much
and
we
will
miss
you
and
don't
hesitate
to
raise
your
hand
and
come
back
in
some
form,
we're
always
looking
for
our
best
supporters.
So
thank
you
very
much
with
that.
We
will
close
washoe
county
and
we
will
go
to
dr
summer
stevens
with
churchill
county
and
dr
stevens.
I
would
thank
you
as
well
for
giving
up
your
time
today.
A
I
know
how
important
it
is
when
you're
a
superintendent
to
be
on
task,
and
so
I
appreciate
you
waiting
through
presentations
and
being
here,
please
go
ahead
when
you're
ready.
M
M
Awesome
well
again,
thank
you
to
everyone
on
the
committee.
It's
been
actually
really
great
to
hear.
We
don't
we
don't
have
a
lot
of
time
to
spend
sharing
with
each
other,
necessarily
even
in
our
superintendents
group
and
the
charter
school
authority
with
only
18
of
us,
it
has
been
great
to
hear
the
work
of
clark,
county
and
washoe
county,
and
it
was
also
great
to
hear
those
threads
and
those
themes
that
we're
seeing
really
do
play
into
what
we
have
as
well
and
and
probably
most
certainly
will
play
into
the
work
that
follows.
M
I
I
just
love
those
similarities,
but
you're
also
going
to
see
the
unique
nuances
that
have
occurred
over
the
last
couple
of
years
from
the
different
districts.
You
hear
all
the
time
right
that
all
of
the
districts
there
may
be
similarities
but
they're
all
unique
to
their
location
and
context,
so,
hopefully
I'll
be
able
to
share
with
you
just
a
bit
about
churchill
and
how
we
have
approached
the
last
23
months
of
time.
M
I
also
wanted
to
spend
my
time
continuing
to
to
reiterate.
I
think
what
you
also
heard
from
dr
keating
and
from
dr
mcneil
around
our
public
engagement
for
this
work,
which
is
so
very
important,
and
I
am
certain
that,
as
you
hear,
what
we've
been
spending,
these
federal
funds
on
that
have
come
out
to
districts,
as
you
all
consider
the
the
funding
forward
and
what
what
is
needed.
You'll
see
the
kinds
of
things
that
we're
needing
you
know
to
from
the
state
level.
M
So
I
wanted
to
share
first
the
the
strategic
themes
that
our
district
uses
and
our
theory
of
action
that
we
use.
What
I
would
say
is
when
I
started
in
the
district
three
and
a
half
years
ago.
Our
our
school
district
didn't
actually
even
have
a
strategic
plan
of
any
sort,
and
so
we
were
able
to
engage
our
community
at
that
time.
M
Well
before
we
even
knew
what
covid19
was
going
to
be
in
the
work
that
was
needed
to
help
us
take
our
district
forward,
and
we
have
continued
to
use
those
ideas
throughout
the
pandemic,
because,
ultimately,
what
we
identified
in
the
fall
and
winter
of
2018
really
still
applies.
And
so
I
wanted
to
share
with
you.
M
The
the
idea
around
you
know
how
we're
looking
at
things
the
churchill
county,
school
district
strategic
plan
really
is
looking
at
three
areas:
it's
about
implementing
opportunities
to
develop
life-ready
learners,
it's
about
developing
the
whole
child
through
intentional
opportunities
that
elite
that
lead
them
to
be
engaged
citizens,
and
then
it's
increasing
our
communication
to
increase
support
from
our
community
and
so
with
that.
M
M
I
would
say,
however,
that
we
have
tried
to
take
the
approach
in
our
district
that
we
know
there
are
additional
supports
needed,
but
that
what
we
were
striving
for
is
still
within
what
I
call
our
destination
postcard.
That
is
still
where
we're
trained
to
go
and
we
did
not
want
to
derail
the
work.
Because
again,
it
really
was
all
about
the
things
that
we
needed
to
implement
anyway.
M
So
we
again
focus
on
life,
readiness,
developing
the
whole
person,
those
partnerships
and
then
also
professional
growth,
and
then
I'm
going
to
switch
real
quickly
now
to
some
other
elements.
So,
as
we
think
about
the
work
that
has
happened,
we
engaged
a
team
of
county
and
city
leaders
as
well
as
district
teachers,
folks
from
our
associations,
administrators
and
others.
M
When
we
got
the
call
that
school
is
going
to
close
down,
we
really
began
to
confront
the
reality
of
what
learning
may
look
like
moving
forward
during
unprecedented
times
and
times
that
we
didn't
even
know
what
they
would
look
like.
So
we
gathered
regularly
to
discuss
what
was
needed.
What
model
might
work
for
the
2021
school
year,
which
was
last
year,
how
we
would
feed
and
transport
students
and
how
we
would
deal
with
staffing
concerns?
M
So
when
we
think
about
our
sr1
funds
and
the
or
the
cares
funds,
we
use
almost
all
of
those
funds
to
directly
stand
up.
Our
hybrid
blended
learning
model
that
we
used
in
churchill
county
school
district
last
year
and
we
allocated
a
lot
of
our
funds
to
support
bus
drivers
because
our
model
for
those
of
you
not
familiar.
We
actually,
we
had
school
every
day
in
churchill
county
school
district
last
year,
but
we
actually
had
two
groups
of
students
coming.
M
We
had
a
morning
session
and
an
afternoon
session,
so
we
actually
ran
bus
routes
twice.
We
infused
additional
money
into
summer
school
for
last
summer,
where
we
saw
our
highest
level
of
participation,
almost
400
students
and
highest
level.
Since
I
have
been
in
the
district
where
funds
paid
for
additional
support
staff,
while
we
also
braided
funds
with
other
title
programs
to
connect
with
students
and
families.
M
We
actually
increased
our
salary
for
summer
school
to
engage
teaching
staff
and
support
staff,
especially
at
a
time
when
they
were
some
somewhat
at
their
lowest
in
terms
of
stress
and
strain
and
and
energy,
and
so
that's
something
potentially
that
we're
not
going
to
be
able
to
sustain.
But
it
was,
it
was
effective
and
that
will
continue
on
as
well.
We
used
funds
to
ensure
that
our
families,
although
we're
already
a
one-to-one
school
district,
that
our
families
had
internet
connectivity
for
those
who
could
not
afford
or
secure
it.
M
M
So
then,
as
we
move
forward
and
considered
our
upcoming
budget
for
this
school
year
that
we're
in
right
now,
in
the
era
of
the
new
funding
formula,
we
actually
moved
from
from
hold
harmless
to
not
hold
harmless,
and
there
was
some
uncertainty
over
the
exact
amount
of
funds
that
we
would
receive.
M
So
coupling
that,
with
the
sr2
and
the
sr3
funding,
we
knew
that
we
may
have
to
ensure
that
if
we
tap
some
of
the
federal
funds
to
cover
what
we
might
not
be
able
to
do
in
the
actual
state
funds
in
the
general
fund,
so
we
have
a
new,
newer
budgeting
process.
It
actually
probably
is
similar
to
what
washoe
county
school
districts
might
be.
M
We
have
a
new
process
and
policy
and
procedures
that
we've
put
in
place
in
the
district
that
relies
heavily
on
our
ability
to
to
address
the
strategic
themes
of
the
district,
focusing
first
and
foremost
on
our
learners
and
not
letting
adult
priorities
get
in
the
way
of
that,
and
so
we
engage
a
group
called
a
budget
advisory
committee.
M
So
last
year
we
engaged
them
in
conversations
about
the
spending
of
general
fund,
as
well
as
s
or
two
dollars
s
for
three
dollars,
and
then
we
also
collected-
and
I
have
some
of
those
ideas
here.
Then
we
also
went
on
to
collect
ideas
from
families
and
from
staff
around
these
very
same
things,
and
we
actually
also
held
a
town
hall
in
that
work,
as
we
developed
our
budgets,
4s
or
2
for
sr3
and
our
general
fund
budget.
M
Our
committee
did
give
input
to
all
of
these
budgets
for
sr2
and
sr3
specifically
and
at
your
leisure.
You
could
look
through
some
of
the
comments
that
really
do
coalesce
around
the
key
themes
that
were
identified
in
our
work
and
so
those
range
from
implementing
our
learner-centered
framework,
which
is
really
what
drives
us
forward
in
our
initial
strategic
one
area.
That
is
all
about
helping
us
move
towards
building
a
competency-based
system
here
in
churchill
county.
M
M
Also
increased
math
support
was
identified,
restoring
classroom
teachers
to
higher
levels
for
smaller
class
size.
One
of
the
benefits
that
we
actually
saw
of
our
last
year's
model,
which
I
think
was
difficult
to
sustain,
so
we
didn't
really
consider
it
becoming
the
new
norm
in
churchill,
we
actually
with
those
those
partial
days,
our
class
sizes
in
elementary
and
middle
and
high
school
ranged
from
8
to
12
students,
and
that
was
actually
ideal.
M
Staff
was
extremely
happy.
Kids
were
extremely
happy,
and
in
that
model
we
actually
saw
a
lot
of
reduced
stress
and
emotional
strain
while
at
school
because
of
the
direct
relationships
that
could
be
built,
and
that
was
really
our
focus
last
school
year.
So
just
keep
that
as
a
note,
as
we
think
about
funding
for
the
future
is
that
we
absolutely
have
to
be
able
to
reduce
class
sizes.
We
actually
were
able
to
see
that
people
wanted
to
maintain
our
reading
interventionists.
M
M
Our
district
over
the
course
of
years
has
had
a
lot
of
financial
struggles
and
there
had
been
significant
cuts
in
the
the
school
counseling
department.
We
had
never
actually
had
the
safe
school
professionals,
and
so
that
was
already
work
that
had
started
to
to
reinstate
some
of
that
or
obtain
safe
school
professionals,
and
so
you'll
see
here
in
just
a
minute
how
that
has
continued.
So
I
just
wanted
you
to
get
a
sense
that
we're
really
interested
in
engaging
our
community
along
with
our
budget
advisory
group.
M
Our
associations,
as
I
said,
are
representing
teachers,
administrators
and
support
staff.
We
also
have
financial
consultants
from
our
community.
We
have
other
community-based
folks
engaged.
We
have
members
of
our
tribe,
the
shoshone
tribe
here
in
fallon
that
are
part
of
that
committee,
as
well
as
representatives
of
the
naval
air
station
fallon,
so
that
we're
really
encapsulating
all
of
the
folks
that
do
live
in
our
community.
M
M
Unfortunately,
in
in
smaller
districts
as
you'll
hear
just
just
like
kristin's
out
subbing,
I
actually
teach
a
class
every
day
at
our
high
school
and
as
there's
someone
else
on
our
call
that's
coming
up
and
we
are
we're
the
ones
that
are
actually
typing
an
e-page
all
of
these
things
in
many
of
the
rules.
So
I
think
it's
important
to
understand
that
as
well,
so
they
gave
us
input
on
the
stimulus
funds
as
well
as
our
regular
budget.
M
I
do
want
to
talk
about
then
how,
before
we
talk
about
sr3,
how
we've
spent
us
or
two
in
our
district,
because
our
intent
and
knowing
our
current
financial
system
situation
with
our
general
fund,
we
don't
have
much
carryover
in
our
district
and
we
knew
that
we
needed
to
sustain
these
federal
funds
as
long
as
possible,
while
also
providing
the
the
resources
needed,
and
so
through
our
work.
M
We
were
able
to
ascertain
that
we
could
really
use
as
for
two
funds
during
this
school
year
and
then
work
to
sustain
and
use
the
arp
as
her
three
funds
during
the
next
two
fiscal
years.
So
with
sr2.
I
just
want
to
talk
about
some
of
the
spending
that
we've
done.
We,
of
course,
have
set
aside
additional
funds
to
keep
the
more
robust
summer
school
period.
M
We
actually
have
the
three
days
a
week
plus
transportation
food
service
in
two
four
to
five
week
sessions
over
the
summer,
and
we
can
expect
to
continue
to
include
that.
We
have
worked
to
set
aside
additional
support
for
counselors
and
safe
school
professionals.
M
We
actually
our
district
prior
to
me
coming
through
the
financial
concerns,
had
cut
elementary
pe
art
and
music,
so
those
had
not
been
in
the
district
for
a
number
of
years
and
we
desperately
wanted
to
provide
that
back
as
part
of
our
whole
child
work,
and
so
we
were
able
to
institute
some
of
that.
We
have
elementary
p.e
at
all
three
of
our
elementaries
and
for
those
not
familiar
churchill.
County
school
district
has
a
k1
building
a
2
3
building
and
a
4-5
building.
M
We
also
have
art
and
music
that
art
take
place
for
a
semester
worth
of
time
at
the
upper
two
elementaries
and
we'll
look
to
sr3
to
hopefully
increase
that
as
well.
We
also
know
that
part
of
whole
child
development
and
life
ready
learners
is
the
development
of
our
current
technical
education
programs
and,
due
to
our
hybrid
model,
that
we
used,
we
actually
lost
state
funding
for
cte.
M
That's
allocated
out
because
of
the
way
that
we
chose
to
set
up
our
our
model
last
year
and
we,
and
so
some
of
our
students
were
not
able
to
be
in
cte
or
they
weren't
able
to
work
it
out
in
both
of
our
semesters.
M
So
we
actually
had
we
lost
half
of
our
state
allocated
funding
in
cte,
so
we're
using
our
for
two
funds
this
year
to
continue
to
build
our
19
programs
that
we
offer
in
person
in
churchill,
county
school
district,
which
I
think
is
significant
to
to
recognize,
and
we
support
kids
that
that
want
to
be
in
a
program
other
than
what
we
offer
so
we're
using
funds
for
that.
M
In
addition,
we
used
the
funds
for
additional
ppe
cleaning
equipment,
air
filtration
being
able
to
sustain
our
custodial
staff
that
we
actually
struggled
to
financially
support
with
our
general
fund,
a
big
one
that
we
ended
up
not
being
able
to
actually
live
out.
So
the
the
budget
has
changed
since
then
is
also
what
dr
mcneil
talked
about
with
class
size
reduction.
We
actually
allocated
funds
out
for
sr2
to
try
to
reduce
our
class
size
at
elementary.
M
We
typically
have
a
difficult
time
meeting
that
particular
number
that
we're
supposed
to
meet
and
we
could
not
staff
it
as
well
as
some
open
core
positions
in
high
school
in
english
and
math
that
we
were
not
able
to
staff
originally.
M
So
that's
a
concern
that
we
have
that
these
funds
do
exist
right
now
in
esser,
but
that
we
actually
can't
find
the
bodies.
So
that's
going
to
be
an
ongoing
piece
for
us.
We
also
provided
a
retention
and
stipend
to
honor
our
staff,
who
made
it
through
the
first
few
months
of
the
challenging
situation
from
the
spring
of
2020.
M
So
we
did
use
funds
to
increase
that
site
that
allocation.
During
this
school
year.
We
had
spent
time
for
extra
days
we
hired
students,
as
student
tutors
may
actually
reach
out
into
some
other
areas
to
hire
students
possibly
for
custodial.
M
M
Continued
internet
connectivity
ways
to
have
our
support
staff
be
able
to
engage
with
families
and
community
partners
are
ways
that
we've
spent
that
really
looking
forward.
We
actually
have
math
coaching
happening.
Math
is
a
struggle
area
for
our
district,
so
we
spent
funds
there
you're
going
to
basically
just
see
when
you
look
at
sr3
funds
really
spending
it
on
exactly
those
same
things.
M
With
the
caveat
that
as
we
go
back
out
and
consider
our
budgeting
for
next
school
year,
we
will
be
reopening
conversations
with
our
community
partners,
with
families
with
students
and
with
existing
staff
over
our
needs
and
to
to
learn.
M
If
these,
in
fact
have
have
changed
at
all-
and
I
will
be
one
of
those
people
who
has
not
spent
any
s
or
three
funds
and
my
my
grant
application
is
not
fully
finished
as
well,
because
I
had
to
keep
my
attention
around
the
work
that
we're
doing
right
now
and
now
we're
getting
into
the
spring,
where
I
will
get
back
in
there
and
decide
if
we
need
to
reallocate
those
funds
and
take
on
those
additional
funds
that
the
state
will
will
provide.
M
M
So
that
was
pretty
quick
and
dirty
but
proud
of
our
process,
proud
to
say
that
our
graduation
rate
increased
last
year.
I
know
that's
not
the
case
necessarily
for
everyone
around
the
state
or
the
country,
but
we
were
able
to
to
put
funds
in
places
that
we
do
believe
helped
we're
going
to
want
to
maintain
that
and,
as
dr
mcneil
did
indicate
as
she
as
some
questions
were
posed,
we
know
we
have
to
find
ways
to
sustain
that
long
term.
M
We
want
to
get
the
right
supports
into
the
hands
of
staff
and
at
at
the
feet
of
students
and
families,
and
so
we'll
look
for
those
continued
conversations
that
happen
statewide
and
legislatively
about
how
we
keep
this
funding
available
to
school
districts
as
we
move
forward.
So
with
that,
I
will
hopefully
stop
sharing
my
screen
and
would
would
entertain
any
any
questions
from
the
group
or
definitely
can
turn
it
over
to
other
rules.
A
Any
additional
questions
from
the
committee
senator
seaver's
gangster.
Please
go
ahead.
C
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
I
just
want
to
thank
you
for
the
details
that
you've,
provided
you
know
in
looking
through
this.
It
looks
like
you've
got
quite
a
bit
of
intervention
like
one-on-one
intervention
for
math
and
for
reading
and
you're
also
leveraging
partnerships
like
the
military
partnership
and
education,
and
you
also
hired.
It
sounds
like
some
students
to
do
things,
and
so
we
didn't
get
this
much
detail
from
other
districts.
C
But
I
want
to
compliment
you
on
that
because
I
know
it's
so
tough
to
to
get
a
workforce
and
when
you
use
those
partnerships,
it's
really
critical
and
I
also
know
students
their
their
learning
benefits
so
greatly
from
some
of
that
one-on-one
intervention.
When
you
can
do
that
and
you
don't
initially
have
the
staff,
so
those
partnerships
and
also
hiring
students
to
help
students
is
a
great
idea.
So
thank
you.
A
A
So
I
just
want
to
thank
you,
dr
stevens,
as
well
for
the
detail
and
the
things
I
realized
that
sometimes
smaller
can
be
better
because
you
have
your
nuts
and
bolts
right
in
front
of
you,
and
I
appreciate
you
also
being
out
in
the
classrooms.
A
I
also
want
to
tell
you
that
I
appreciate
you
sharing
that
you
found
these
presentations
beneficial.
That
was
one
of
my
thoughts
when
I
asked
the
superintendents
to
present,
because
I
know
that
we
always
don't
hear
exactly
what
others
are
doing,
even
in
a
state
like
we
have
with
a
small
amount
of
school
districts.
So
I
appreciate
your
time
your
expertise
and
I
know
that
you
two
have
been
a
wonderful
partner.
A
So
thank
you
very
much
and
we
look
forward
to
hearing
from
you
again-
and
I
appreciate
you
being
here
today
and
with
that,
unless
we
have
any
questions
from
anyone,
we
will
jump
over
to
douglas
county
and
mr
lewis,
please
go
ahead
when
you're.
I
Ready
all
right,
thank
you,
chairman
don
darrell
loop,
and
I
concur.
It's
been
a
learning
experience
this
morning,
just
listening
and
hearing
others
ideas.
It
certainly
is
beneficial
and-
and
I
think
I
want
to
start
off
with.
Obviously
this
is
a
very
flexible
situation.
When
we
look
at
that,
we
will
have
the
ability
to
spend
this
out
through
2024-25.
I
I
It
would
probably
help
we
can.
Can
you
see
my
screen?
Okay,
perfect?
So
I
am
keith
lewis
superintendent.
This
is
my
second
year
as
superintendent
of
douglas
county,
so
I
have
only
known
covid
and
how
to
lead
in
this
time
and
day,
and
it
certainly
has
been
interesting.
I
I
Competency-Based
education
and
douglas
county
had
just
started
the
process
of
modern
teacher,
which
is
initiative
here
in
douglas
county
and
four
other
counties
across
the
state
of
nevada,
where
we're
really
looking
at
how
we
modernize
our
instruction,
really
look
into
a
student,
senator
centered
learning
culture
and
eventually,
obviously,
competency
based
education,
and
so
so
we
kind
of
started
that
work
and
which
I
think
helped
us
as
we
had
to
transition
at
the
onset
of
koban
learning
or
covid,
not
covet
learning,
although
that
might
be
a
good
term
for
this
anyway.
I
So
so,
really,
as
we
went
down
the
road
we,
our
priorities
and
our
foundation
of
all
of
our
esr
spending,
was
based
on
epic
learning
and
I
use
the
term
modern
teacher.
I
That's
that's
the
initiative
and
we've
branded
it
here
in
douglas
county
as
epic
learning,
which
is
to
empower
prepare,
inspire
and
connect
with
our
students,
and
so
a
lot
of
what
we've
done
are
to
support
that
moving
forward,
and
we
really
felt
like
the
best
pain
for
our
buck
was
to
ensure
that
we
were
improving
instruction
in
the
classroom,
because
once
the
funds
goes
away,
you
still
have
improved
that
instruction,
that
that
lasts
the
time,
and
so
that's
been
our
priority
of
ours
and
obviously
looking
at
our
multi-tiered
systems
of
support
tier
one
tier
two
and
two
tier
three
gathering
stakeholder
input
has
been
a
valuable
part
of
this
process
and
will
continue
to
do
so.
I
We
will
evaluate
every
six
months
and
we're
keeping
our
board
obviously
apprised,
and
we
also
have
employee
group
meetings
here
in
douglas
county,
which
were
monthly
face-to-face
with
all
of
our
employee
groups
and
are
communicating
those
needs
and,
as
I
said,
I
can't
express
enough
that
the
fact
that
this
will
evolve
over
time.
Our
needs
today
may
not
be
our
needs
a
year
from
now
and
having
the
ability
to
adapt
and
make
adjustments
in
the
plan.
We
believe
we
have
the
flexibility
to
do
that.
I
So,
in
terms
of
allocations
from
our
sr1,
the
initial
cares
act.
We
received
530
000.
We
received
just
over
1.8
million
as
part
of
sr2
and
in
sr3
4.1
million
a
little
bit
over
that.
So
looking
at
a
total
allocation
here
in
douglas
county
about
six
and
a
half
million
dollars
for
those
three
funding
sources,
I've
broken
it
down,
maybe
in
too
much
detail
than
than
you
really
want.
But
obviously,
with
the
cares
act,
it
really
was
just
putting
that
infrastructure
in
place.
I
Getting
the
pp
e
in
place
that
most
of
us
didn't
have
we
took
on.
Obviously,
we
knew
that
we
needed
an
online
option
for
our
families.
I
You
know,
if
you
go
back
to
march
of
2020,
there
was
a
significant
fear.
What
we
didn't
anticipate
was
that
we
would
have
almost
900
families
move
to
online
learning.
We
truly
thought
we
might
be
around
the
200
range,
and
so
obviously
900
was
significantly
more
than
we
had
planned
for,
but
we
we
opened
douglas
nevada
online.
I
We
got
through
the
hiccups
that
were
initially
in
place
and
we
went
with
the
the
curriculum
edge
annuity,
which
is
used
across
the
state,
and
we
invested
a
lot
in
technology
and
I'm
very
proud
in
douglas
county
as
a
rural
district,
that
every
one
of
our
students
has
a
device
in
hand
at
home.
I
We
were
able
to
invest
in
hot
spots
for
those
families
who
live
a
little
bit
more
rural
and
we're
having
trouble
accessing
the
internet
and,
and
then
we've
also
invested
in
wi-fi
on
some
of
our
buses,
for
especially
those
longer
routes
that
we
have
so
we've
really
built
the
educational
technology
infrastructure.
Here
in
douglas
county
and
again,
like
I
said
we
we
were
have
been
able
to
pivot.
I
Very
quickly,
in
those
situations
and
in
addition
to
covid,
we've
had
quite
a
bit
of
smoke
here
in
the
fall
over
the
last
two
years
that
a
lot
of
what
we
have
put
in
place
for
covet
has
benefited
us
in
those
situations
as
well.
I
We
also
provided
every
teacher
in
douglas
county
with
a
chromebook,
a
high-powered
chromebook
so
that
they
are
able
to
provide
distance
learning
in
the
hybrid
model
when
we
were
there
or
should
we
ever
have
to
pivot
in
that
direction
again,
and
we
talked
about
cleaning
supplies
and
we
invested
quite
a
bit
in
that
with
sprayers
for
our
classrooms.
I
We
invested
a
lot
in
a
product
called
bio,
protect,
which
is
a
90
day.
Surface
kills
the
cova
virus
on
contact
and
again,
I
think
our
numbers
in
our
schools
have
that's
one
of
many
mitigation
efforts
that
I
think
have
proved
beneficial.
I
I'm
awfully
proud
that
we
have
been
full
in-person
learning
since
march
9th
of
2021
and
for
the
entire
2021
school
year.
We
were
in
person,
at
least
in
a
hybrid
model
at
our
secondary,
but
our
elementary
students
have
been
in
person
for
the
last
two
years.
Five
days
a
week,
so
we're
we're
happy
about
that.
That
we've
been
able
to
maintain
that,
and
that's
obviously
had
a
positive
impact
on
education
in
douglas
county
and
then
moving
on
to
sr2.
I
I
and
again
a
lot
of
what
we
have
built
in
is
we've
built
in
not
just
a
one
one
year
and
so
we've.
Our
funding
has
been
built
in
for
a
lot
of
positions
to
ensure
that
we
have
those
through
the
duration
of
this
and
then
obviously,
at
that
point
we
have
to
make
a
decision,
whether
those
get
taken
into
our
general
fund
or
what
we
do
with
some
of
these
positions.
One
of
the
issues
that
you
know.
I
Obviously
we
know
that
the
epid
or
the
pandemic
has
certainly
had
a
significant
impact
on
credit
recovery.
We
know
that
a
lot
of
kids
disengaged
from
their
learning
when
the
pandemic
started,
and
so,
as
others
have
talked
about,
we
we
served
over
our
numbers.
We
served
285
students
in
our
summer
school
program
through
that
we
recovered
231
credits.
That
may
not
seem
like
a
lot,
but
for
a
school
district
of
5200
students,
it
was
actually
one
of
our
best
summers.
I
In
terms
of
credit
recovery,
41
of
those
students
were
enrolled
in
math
and
37
were
enrolled
in
english
language
arts.
So
one
of
the
things
that
we're
doing
is
we're
investing
in
a
graduation
support
coordinator
across
the
district,
and
some
of
the
issues
that
we've
had
is.
Is
students
coming
out
of
the
middle
school,
on
academic
probation,
so
they're
short
a
few
credits,
and
so
they
come
to
the
high
school
already
behind.
I
So
we
we're
going
to
invest
in
a
coordinator
that
will
work
through
our
secondary
system
to
to
not
only
track
kids
to
make
sure
that
we're
communicating
with
families
and
to
work
with
our
community
to
identify
intervention
and
support.
We
have
a
lot
of
people
in
our
community
that
we
don't
often
tap
into,
and
so
not
only
will
that
position
work
with
our
students,
but
they
will
also
work
with
our
community.
I
Again
when
we
talk,
I've
talked
about
epic
learning,
we've
invested
in
instructional
coaches.
We
have
five
this
year.
Our
intent
is
to
hire
another
five
and
have
10
through
the
next
two
years.
They
work
directly
with
teachers
in
the
classroom
to
support
the
implementation
of
epic
learning
in
a
modernizing
and
student-centered
learning
environment
that
has
been
very
beneficial.
The
early
returns
on
that
has
been
very
positive
from
our
staff.
I
I
am
in
the
unique
position
of
I
think
summer
just
alluded
to
how
many
of
their
teachers
are
at
the
end
of
their
careers.
My
executive
staff,
I'm
losing
three
this
year
to
retirement,
and
so
we
invested
for
the
continuity
and
transition.
I
We
hired
an
assistant
director
to
come
in
and
be
able
to
learn,
especially
in
our
education
services
department,
to
be
able
to
learn
and
be
ready
to
transition,
and
so
that
has
been
very
beneficial
for
us
so
that
we
don't
have
all
that
institutional
knowledge
walking
out
on
june
30th
and
bringing
someone
in
brand
new
trying
to
learn
that.
So
that's
been
good
again,
we
have
invested
in
edgenuity
for
multiple
years.
We've
purchased
panels
for
our
classrooms
to
ensure
that
we
have
the
technology
needed
within
our
classrooms.
I
We're
addressing
school
facility
repairs
and
improvements
again,
working
through
hvac
and
we've
purchased
air
scrubbers
across
the
district
which
takes
in
the
air
cleans
it
and
again,
that'll
be
beneficial
not
only
for
covid,
but
as
we
see
more
and
more
fire
activity
here
in
the
tahoe
basin
and
what
we're
living
in
we've
purchased
protective
window
film
security,
so
we've
taken
some
use
some
of
this
money
for
security
advancement,
protective
window
film,
if
you're
not
familiar
with
that,
it's
a
film
that
goes
on
the
exterior
of
our
windows.
I
If
someone
were
having
forbid
to
shoot
out
a
window
to
gain
access
to
our
school,
the
glass
would
not
break
out.
So
it's
a
protective
measure
for
our
students
and
staff.
We've
invested
in
social,
emotional,
mental
health
services,
as
everyone's
alluded
to
we
are
struggling
to
find
people
to
fill
the
personnel
that
we
have.
Added
to
this
grant.
I
Social
workers
are
in
that,
although
we
currently
have
three
working
across
our
district,
but
we've
try
we're
trying
to
add
two
additional
and
we
have
we're
making
some
changes
in
the
pay
rate
on
those
two.
I
When
we
initially
hired
them,
they
were
grant
funded
and
so
we're
somewhat
limited
what
we've
paid
and
are
making
salary
increases
in
that
area
to
be
more
to
attract
social
workers
to
our
district
again
we
cleaning
supplies
and
we've
purchased
lunch
tables
for
our
elementary
schools
to
be
able
to
distance
students
a
little
bit
more
than
we
have
been
able
to
do,
and
so
just
again,
looking
at
sr3
a
lot
of
sr3
is
we're
just
building
out
on
some
continuity
so
that
you
know
each
one
of
these
funding
sources
isn't
completely
different,
different
things,
and
so
that's
kind
of
a
very
quick.
A
Thank
you
so
much
superintendent.
I
once
again
cannot
tell
you
how
much
I
appreciate
your
time
and
expertise
and
what
you're
doing
for
our
students
in
nevada.
Do
I
have
any
questions
from
the
committee.
I
know
as
we
go
through
these.
Some
of
the
questions
are
the
same
as
we
get
to
certain
school
districts,
but
each
school
district
has
its
own
nuance.
A
If
I
don't
see
any
questions,
one
of
the
things
I
wanted
to
clarify
you
have
about
6
000
students,
and
you
only
had
230
that
actually
ended
up
going
to
summer
school.
Those
numbers
right.
A
And
then
will
you
be
sort
of
promoting
that
in
a
different
level
so
that
you
could
capture
more
students
to
come
back
in
to
that
setting.
I
Yeah-
and
I
think
that
you
know
some
of
that-
speaks
to
that.
A
lot
of
our
kids
are
not
credit
deficient,
so
you
know
so
they're,
even
though
you
have
6
000
students,
the
need
isn't
for
six
thousand,
and
so
that
is
a
typical
chaired
under
loop.
That's
a
pretty
typical
summer
school
enrollment
for
us,
and
we
certainly
obviously
will
plan
that,
as
I
think
others
have
alluded,
we're
already
finding
struggles
in
getting
teachers
that
want
to
teach
summer
school.
I
A
I
appreciate
your
time
today
once
again,
I
know
how
busy
busy
a
superintendent
is
on
any
level.
So
I
appreciate
you
being
here
it's
important
that
we
hear
from
you
so
with
that
we
will
go
on
to
humboldt
and
dr
jensen
are
you
here,
it's
good
to
see
you
and
go
ahead
when
you're
ready.
E
Good
to
see
you
too,
chair,
dondero
luke
for
the
record.
My
name
is
dr
david
jensen,
superintendent
for
humboldt
county
school
district.
Thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
visit
with
you
and
to
share
the
work
that
we're
doing
here
in
humboldt.
I
too
need
to
echo
what
both
summer
and
keith
have
shared
in
regards
to
the
benefit
of
hearing
what
the
other
districts
are
doing.
E
Our
superintendent's
meetings
are
pretty
compressed
and
we
haven't
had
time
to
delve
into
the
depth
that
this
conversation's
providing.
So
it's
it's
giving
me
some
ideas
and
some
suggestions.
I
do
have
a
couple
of
handouts.
I
believe
those
have
been
shared
with
you.
I
will
share
my
screen
here
in
just
a
moment
as
we
get
into
the
arp
or
sr3
discussion,
but
very
quickly.
E
Before
I
move
on,
I
reflect
on
the
opening
dialogue
that
occurred
and
senator
brooks,
I
believe,
made
a
ques
or
asked
a
question
in
regards
to
total
funding
and
just
to
share
when
you
saw
on
that
list,
humboldt
under
one
two
and
three
or
arp
had
six
million
nineteen
thousand
four
hundred
and
fifty
eight.
But
when
you
combine
that,
with
all
of
the
esser
stimulus
money
that
has
come
to
humble,
our
total
is
actually
nine
million
one
hundred
and
eighteen
thousand
fifty
eight
dollars
and
sixteen
cents,
it's
a
significant
amount
of
money.
E
That's
making
a
profound
impact
on
our
district
then
becomes
one
of
the
challenge
that
I
just
bring
to
the
table.
I
believe
we're
going
to
have
to
discuss
as
we
move
forward.
This
money
has
given
us
some
unique
opportunities
for
intervention
and
supports
to
reach
out
to
our
students
that
had
coveted
learning
loss
and
to
also
prepare
us
for
the
future.
E
So
with
that,
let
me
touch
very
briefly
on
esser
one
and
two,
and
certainly
I
encourage
any
questions.
As
we
conclude
today's
presentation,
sr1
humboldt
received
and
eighty
dollars
just
so
the
the
committee
is
aware
we
have
spent
ninety
nine
point.
Nine
percent
of
that
we
have
about
three
hundred
dollars.
That's
not
expended
out
of
that
three
hundred
and
forty
seven
thousand
dollars.
This
money
was
essential
for
us
as
we
prepared
for
the
opening
of
the
2021
school
year.
So
we
spend
a
significant
amount
of
money
on
ppe.
E
Mass
gloves
face
mask
the
other
issues
that
we
needed
to
have
present
for
our
students,
spray
machines
so
that
we
could
disinfect
classrooms
other
types
of
supplies
to
wipe
down
hive
touch
areas
and
deaths.
In
addition
to
that,
we
purchased
a
number
of
hot
spots
in
a
rural
community.
Connectivity
is
a
significant
issue
and
barrier
to
us
meeting
the
needs
of
some
of
our
our
most
at-risk
students
as
an
example
for
those
that
may
not
be
available
are
aware.
E
Denial
elementary
school
that
serves
a
population
of
eight
students
is
located
100
miles
from
where
I
sit
right
now.
There
is
no
internet
connectivity
out
there
in
some
of
those
remote
rural
locations,
so
we've
had
to
get
very
creative
in
how
we
do
that,
and,
and
primarily
we're
able
to
meet
about
95
percent
of
our
students
needs,
so
that
required
us
to
invest
in
hot
spots
so
that
we
could
get
the
connectivity
we
bought
projectors.
E
We
purchased
an
additional
550
chromebooks,
the
the
effect
of
those
550
chromebooks
put
us
in
a
one-to-one
chromebook
availability
for
all
of
our
students,
as
we
were
prepared
for
distance
learning.
We
also
worked
very
hard.
As
I
talked
about
connectivity.
E
Even
in
winnemucca,
we've
got
a
number
of
students
that
are
living
in
high
poverty
situations,
so
we've
been
working
on
a
mesh
network
we
utilized
about
forty
one
thousand
dollars
so
that
we
can
create
our
own
internal
mesh
device
system
that
covers
the
main
winemaker
boulevard
corridor
and
then
extends
into
some
other
areas
so
that
students
in
those
low-income
housing
areas,
motels
hotels,
could
access
the
internet.
It's
secured
it's
it's
tied
to
the
chromebook,
so
we
ensure
that
there's
nothing
inappropriate
occurring
but
allows
them
to
do
their
work.
E
E
S
are
number
two
humboldt
received:
1.749
million
dollars.
This
is
one
that's
a
multi
multi-year
grant,
which
we
appreciate
and
to
date
we
have
expended
just
over
a
million
dollars
of
those
funds
which
puts
us
at
61.2
percent
expenditure.
E
Part
of
the
reason
that
you'll
see
that
extend
is
is,
as
we
started,
to
consider
what
was
most
essential
to
us
and,
as
we
looked
at
the
federal
guidance,
it
was
to
provide
cove
mitigation
and
support.
So
we
really
took
that
to
heart
and
asked
the
question:
what
do
we
need
to
reach
our
most
at-risk
student
populations
to
support
them?
So
what
we
did
with
that
money
is.
Is
we
looked
at
el
scores
in
particular,
and
noted
that
that's
an
area
of
concern
for
us
as
we
conducted
our
data
analysis?
E
E
In
addition,
we
brought
in
or
actually
reconstituted
what
we
had
to
cut
several
years
ago,
four
instructional
coaches
at
our
four
in-town
k-6
schools.
Three
of
them
are
k-4
and
one's
a
5-6.
These
coaches
are
pushed
into
the
classroom,
supporting
teachers
through
mentoring,
modeling
lessons
and
then
able
to
do
small
group
intervention.
E
One
of
the
other
things
that
we're
very
proud
of
and
it's
having
a
significant
impact,
is
we
were
able
to
hire
an
el
coach.
This
el
coach
is
again
doing
a
push
in
working
at
each
of
our
schools,
supporting
our
staff
and
supporting
our
students.
Then
we
provided
quite
a
bit
of
focus
on
professional
development.
E
There's
the
associated
cost
benefits
for
salaries
and
then
the
other
thing
that
we
did
along
the
mtss
line
is
we
purchased
seats
through
a
telehealth
10
seats
through
a
company
called
illuma,
and
then
we've
got
20
seats
through
unlv
for
tier
3
counseling
services
for
our
students
that
need
more
than
what
we're
able
to
provide
either
through
our
counselors
or
social
workers.
E
So
we're
really
appreciative
of
the
impact
that
those
funds
have,
and
so
again
we
have
a
plan
that
all
of
those
funds
are
going
to
be
approved.
I
mean
expended
those
funding,
sources
have
been
approved
and
I
want
to
transition
quickly
into
sr3
arp
for
humboldt
county
school
district.
Our
application
has
been
fully
approved
by
the
nevada
department
of
education
and
we
are
fully
engaged
in
expending
those
funds.
E
However,
and
again,
if
you're
not
aware,
we've
really
worked
with
nde
and
I
need
to
express
my
appreciation
to
them
because
with
this
magnitude
of
money,
yes
the
needs
there.
But
it's
going
to
be
hard
to
compress
that
expenditure
into
such
a
short
time
frame.
So
we've
really
been
working
with
them
on
something
called
the
tidings
waiver
that,
if
approved,
will
extend
this
into
2425
and
I
think
that's
going
to
be
essential
for
districts,
especially
as
we
look
at
the
sustainability
piece.
So
I'm
going
to
go
into
share
my
screen.
E
And
at
this
point
you
should
see
a
brochure
in
front
of
you,
chairman,
dondero
loop.
Are
you
able
to
see
that
we
do?
Thank
you.
Thank
you
so
very
quickly.
I
just
want
to
cover
this
for
anybody
interested.
This
is
on
humboldt
county
school
district's
website
and
both
this
and
the
next
document
that
I'm
going
to
review
on
sr3
arp.
E
So
as
summer
indicated.
The
first
thing
I
want
to
point
out
is:
we
really
were
looking
at
our
strategic
plan
we
just
completed
and
we
started
last
year
updating
our
strategic
plan.
As
I
start
this
conversation,
I
wanted
to
share
one
of
the
things
that
I've
shared
with
my
administrative
team.
E
My
board
and
our
staff
is
covid,
has
given
education,
a
very
unique
opportunity
to
re-evaluate
how
we
provide
services
and
to
honestly
evolve,
and
I've
shared
that
issue
that
if
we
simply
revert
back
to
what
we
did,
pre-covid
we're
going
to
do
ourselves
a
disservice
and
I
think
honestly,
we've
failed.
E
Our
district
strategic
plan
really
starts
to
look
at.
How
do
we
change
the
historic
basis
of
education
and
really
reconsider?
E
E
E
They
provided
some
significant
input
and
we
wanted
to
get
as
absolutely
as
much
feedback
as
we
possibly
could.
When
we
completed
that
that
survey,
the
results
came
back,
and
these
are
the
areas
that
that
were
recommended
by
our
community
and
our
stakeholders,
and
you
see,
mental
health.
Counseling
was
probably
the
biggest
thing
that
was
recognized
and
so
we're
working
to
address
that
social,
emotional
learning
after
school
and
summer
learning
opportunities
and
then
all
the
way
down
to
small
group
tutoring.
E
So
moving
forward
on
this
one
again,
this
is
on
our
website.
This
is
what
we
have
dedicated
those
funds
and
I'm
going
to
walk
you
through
those
in
a
little
bit
more
detail
and
then
on
the
side.
Here
are
specific
allocations
by
school
site,
so
you'll
see
at
the
k4
level,
pre-k
4
level,
5,
6,
7
through
12,
and
then
some
of
what
we're
providing
isn't
necessarily
directed
to
one
school,
such
as
the
el
coach.
It
supports
the
district
across
the
board,
and
so
that
came
to
a
total
of
1.3
million
dollars.
E
Okay,
so
I'm
going
to
exit
out
of
this
very
quickly
and
move
into
the
next
document.
Again.
This
is
found
on
our
website
and
this
now
hones
into
arp
and
the
expense
of
the
sr3
monies.
So,
as
you
go
through
this
document
and
again
I
also
shared
it.
We
are
anticipating
the
extension
through
the
tiding
waiver
that'll
get
us
through
2425
and
everything
that
we're
looking
at
doing
associated
with
those
funds,
and
I
want
to
touch
on
some
of
those
very
quickly.
E
So
again,
if
you
take
that
document
and
you
scroll
down,
we've
got
a
brief
narrative
because
we
felt
it
was
important
not
only
for
our
staff
and
our
board,
but
our
for
our
community
for
full
transparency
to
understand
what
we're
doing
and
why
we're
doing
it.
So
one
of
the
first
thing
that
we
recognized
we
needed
to
do
you've
heard
a
lot
about,
and
I
know
you're
you're
very
clearly
aware
of
the
staffing
shortage
when
the
state
had
to
make
some
reductions.
E
E
E
E
E
We
wanted
to
improve
our
college
readiness
of
our
students,
and
so
we
utilized
some
funds
at
lowry
high
school,
and
there
was
already
some
dedicated
funds
in
mcdermott
to
provide
a
ct
prep
that
builds
upon
the
core
instruction.
That's
occurring
and
that's
a
celebration
that
this
is
important
for
us
and
we
need
to
grow
in
that
area.
Last
year,
humboldt
county
across
lowry
and
mcdermott
and
our
adult
dad.
E
I
spoke
about
the
district-wide,
el
coach
and
the
profound,
inter
impact
that
that
individual
is
doing,
and
then
we
wrote
the
grant
to
hire
el
teachers
at
our
school
sites
in
these
upcoming
years.
I
do
need
to
share
that.
It
has
now
come
to
our
attention
we're
going
to
change
gears
on
this
and
there's
two
primary
reasons.
Number
one
is:
we
have
come
to
a
realization
that
we
would
simply
be
hiring
individuals
out
of
our
classroom
to
become
el
teachers.
E
There's
just
not
a
lot
of
candidates
out
there,
so
we
didn't
feel
like
we
would
get
the
bang
for
our
buck.
So
what
we
have
proposed
and
we're
going
to
be
modifying
our
budget
is
our
focus.
Now
is
we
would
like
to
get
60
of
our
staff
members
elad
endorsed,
so
that
we
create
an
entire
spectrum
of
trained
teachers
that
can
meet
the
needs
of
all
of
our
classrooms.
E
Even
though
elad
is
our
english
language
learner
focused,
it
provides
critical
interventions
and
supports
that
can
be
applied
to
a
broad
base
of
students,
especially
those
at
risk,
so
we're
shifting
those
dollars
to
try
to
move
from
four
to
have
60
trained
that
can
meet
the
needs
in
the
classroom
and
we're
excited
about
where
that's
going
to
go.
We
did
talk
to
the
board
of
trustees
and
they
agree
with
that.
E
E
Summer
school
supports
just
to
answer
the
question.
We
had
468
students
that
attended
our
summer
school
program
due
to
covid
our
enrollment
at
the
time
that
we
ran
that
was
at
about
3
200.,
we're
now
back
over
3
300,
as
covid
restrictions
start
to
relax
so
that
468
students
equated
to
about
15
of
our
student
population.
E
This
was
the
largest
summer
school
programming
that
we've
ever
been
able
to
offer
in
the
past.
I
do
think
one
of
the
the
offerings
or
reason
we
could
do
that
is
we
not
only
did
remediation,
but
we
also
offered
acceleration
opportunities
for
students
that
were
ready
for
that.
The
challenges
you've
already
heard
is
having
teachers,
even
though
we
were
paying
their
daily
rate
having
teachers
that
were
interested
in
working
over
the
summer,
they
were
tired
and
really
so.
E
E
E
So
as
in
in
conjunction
with
working
with
our
teachers
organization,
we
recognize
that
this
is
something
that
we
wanted
to
continue,
even
though,
at
the
federal
level
it
was
no
longer
required.
So
we
dedicated
some
funds,
you'll
see
the
total
right.
Now,
it's
only
17
000.,
that's
grossly
inadequate
to
what
we
will
need.
E
E
Obviously,
with
all
of
the
positions
that
we've
hired
there's
also
expenses
in
retirement
and
benefits,
we're
doing
a
significant
amount
of
professional
development
and
for
us
we're
we're
doing
a
big
piece
on
el
which
I've
talked
about,
but
we're
also
doing
a
lot
of
work
on
math
we've
seen
a
bit
of
a
disconnect
between
our
curriculum
k-8
into
9-12,
and
so
we're
making
significant
progress
in
making
sure
that
there's
clear
alignment
so
that
our
students
have
a
seamless
academic
experience.
E
We
run
a
program
during
the
summer
called
start
fresh
and
it
is
a
multi-week
two-week
program
where
students,
staff
members
can
come
in
and
engage
in
in-depth
professional
development.
We
wanted
to
incentivize
our
staff
to
come
in,
so
we
offered
them
200
a
day
which
was
more
than
double
than
what
we've
done
in
prior
years,
and
we
saw
a
significant
increase
in
our
staff
participation.
E
E
We
dedicated
some
funds
for
at-risk
students.
We
again
recognizing
that
students
that
are
in
low
socioeconomic
status
at
many
times
miss
out
on
key
opportunities
such
as
dual
enrollment,
and
then
you
also
see.
We've
talked
about
athletic
costs,
cte,
art,
etc.
If
a
student
is
in
financial
need,
we've
got
the
money
to
make
sure
that
that
is
not
a
barrier
to
their
opportunity
to
learn
and
grow.
E
So
when
we
combine
all
of
that
that
encompasses
our
allocation
under
sr3
of
just
over
3.9
million,
it's
going
to
take
us
some
time
to
expend
it.
As
of
today,
we've
expended
18.9
of
that
allocation,
but
again
a
lot
of
that's
tied
into
personnel
that
we've
established
that
we
want
to
have
over
a
sequence
of
several
years
so
that
we
build
con
continuity
and
then
we'll
have
to
work
on
the
sustainability
either
through
state
local
funds.
E
As
we
prioritize
what's
having
an
impact
overall,
I
couldn't
imagine
us
trying
to
intervene
and
support
our
students
to
the
level
we
have
in
the
absence
of
these
funds.
It's
made
a
significant
difference
for
us
and
I
really
want
to
express
my
appreciation
to
each
of
you
for
supporting
this
and
for
the
impact
that
it's
having
to
help
us
in
our
students
and
our
schools,
and
with
that,
I'm
open
to
any
questions
that
anybody
may
have.
E
A
G
Thank
you
very
much,
madam
chair,
and
in
in
this
presentation
I
heard
the
word
waiver,
and
I
I
missed
if
it
was
the
name
of
the
waiver,
but
we
hadn't
heard
that
discussed
from
any
of
the
other
districts
so
far
today
that
that
I
can
remember
unless
I
missed
it.
So
if
you
could
elaborate
on
what
we're
talking
about,
because
it
was
my
understanding
that
a
lot
of
these
funds
did
have
some
pretty
hard
deadlines.
E
Yes,
you're
right,
assemblyman
carlton
for
the
record,
dr
david
jensen,
superintendent,
humboldt
county
school
district.
There
is
an
opportunity,
what's
called
a
tidings
waiver,
nast
and
nevada
association
of
school
superintendents.
We've
been
engaged
with
nde
to
request
that
they
submit
that
to
the
federal
government
on
our
behalf
and
if
that
is
approved,
which
we
have
indications
that
it
should
be,
would
extend
the
time
frame
on
expenditure
on
the
arp
funds
to
the
end
of
the
24-25
school
year.
So
it
will
give
us
one
additional
year.
E
G
And
thank
you
very
much,
madam
chair,
and
I
guess
we'll
have
to
go
back
to
to
staff
and
get
some
more
details
on
that
and
if
every
school
district
is
doing
it
does
that
right
when
we
were
doing
budgets
last
time,
we
were
trying
to
take
a
lot
of
these
things
into
consideration.
As
we
went
through
the
process
and
if
dollars
are
being
extended
into
another
year,
that's
going
to
have
future
impacts
on
future
budgets,
so
just
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
all
on
the
same
page
and
if
every
district
is
applying
for
it.
G
A
Thank
you
very
much
for
that
clarification.
Do
I
see
additional
questions.
A
So
not
not
seeing
any
additional
questions,
dr
jensen,
I'm
I'm
sure
others
have
thought
of
it,
but
I
appreciate
you
in
a
rural
setting
having
the
foresight
to
reach
out
and
do
these
online
mental
health
licenses.
A
I
think
that's
very
interesting
and
it's
unfortunate
that
we
need
these
at
this
time,
but
I
appreciate
you
doing
that
because
I
know
that
I
have
personally,
as
I
worked
on
mental
health
with
teens,
have
heard
that
some
of
them
are
using
online
even
here
on
las
vegas,
and
I
think
it's
beneficial
because
in
this
time
where
we
can't
always
get
where
we
need
to
be
or
are
allowed
to
go,
it's
a
way
for
students
certainly
and
teachers
to
have
mental
health
support
without
leaving
their
home.
A
So
I
appreciate
that
forethought
on
that
all
right.
Well,
if
I
don't
more
questions
assembly,
women
calling
did
you
have
another
question?
No!
Okay!
Thank
you.
If
I
don't
see
any
more
questions
we'll
go
to
well,
thank
you,
dr
jensen,
and
we'll
go
to
mineral
county.
A
Mr
ponder,
thank
you
for
waiting
through
all
of
this.
You
know
that
mineral
county
and
hawthorne
specifically,
are
probably
always
going
to
be
part
of
my
heritage,
as
my
dad
was
born
and
raised
there.
So
please
go
ahead
with
your
presentation
when
you're
ready
and
we
look
forward
to
hearing
from
you.
N
Well,
I
want
to
say
thank
you
chair,
dr
darrell
luke,
for
allowing
me
to
present
to
this
wonderful
committee
and
for
the
record,
my
name
is
andre,
ponder
I'm
the
superintendent
of
monroe
county
school
district
and
to
my
right
I
have
kathy
trejo,
who
is
our
grant
manager
now?
This
is
my
seventh
month
on
the
job,
and
I
must
say
that
when
I
came
aboard
kathy
also
assumed
the
grant
manager's
position,
the
same
time
that
I
became
the
superintendent.
N
So
we've
had
to
ask
a
lot
of
questions.
We've
had
to
basically
kind
of
build
from
ground,
zero
ask
a
whole
lot
of
questions,
and
I
want
to
extend
a
heartfelt
thank
you
to
the
nde
staff
for
providing
not
only
me
guidance
but
also
providing
our
new
grants,
manager
kathy
guidance
in
putting
together
or
is
her
plan
you
may
have
received
before
I
share
my
screen.
N
But
we
are
in
the
process
of
developing
our
strategic
plan
and
many
of
the
ideas
that
you
see
on
the
presentation
or
on
the
you
will
see
in
the
presentation
and
that
you
will
find
in
the
brochure
we're
going
to
use
those
ideas
to
develop
our
strategic
plan,
as
well
as
we're
going
to
use
those
ideas
to
continue
to
develop
our
essa
plan
and
I'd
like
to
say
for
the
record
that
our
esser
plan
it's
a
live
plan.
It's
forever
changing.
N
We
see
your
screen,
oh
all,
right,
a
little
bit
about
mineral
county.
We
are
right
in
the
heart
of
the
gold
and
west
okay.
Hawthorne
consists:
its
population
is
about
3
200,
that's
the
estimated
population.
We
also
encompass
sures,
then
the
estimated
population
there
is
like
700.,
there's,
also
minor.
N
The
estimated
population
is
about
100
and
in
looney
we
have
less
than
100
community
members
in
luna
all
right
again,
just
a
snapshot
about
monroe
county
school
district.
Again
for
the
record,
I'm
andre
ponder
the
superintendent.
I
assumed
the
duties
seven
months
ago
on
july.
The
first
and
our
total
sr
allocations
is
roughly
one
million
nine
hundred
and
eighty
three
thousand.
We
have
four
schools
in
our
district
on
three
sites.
N
We
have
our
shers
elementary
school,
which
is
located
about
35
miles
north
of
our
main
campus
and
that's
our
native
american
population.
We
have
roughly
about
87
students
at
that
school
and
on
our
main
campus,
we
have
hawthorne
elementary,
that's
pre-k
through
six
and
hawthorne
junior
high
and
mineral
county
high
school.
Our
total
number
of
staff
members
is
approximately
105
and
our
total
student
population
is
roughly
602..
N
Now
our
free
and
reduced
lunch
rate
is
78
percent,
but
because
of
the
pandemic
and
covet
100
of
our
students,
receive
free
and
reduced
lunch,
and
what's
also
unique
about
monroe
county
is
the
closest
costco
is
about
two
hours
away.
So
it's
really
really
a
challenge
for
us
to
recruit,
retain
and
hire
highly
qualified
staff
members
in
this
area
and
a
little
bit
more
about
the
demographics
of
our
school.
Our
monroe
county
high
school
currently
has
148
students.
N
Okay
under
sr1,
our
allocations
was
144
hundred
and
seven
dollars,
and
that
may
be
off
because
I
saw
the
slides
previously,
so
that
may
be
off
by
a
few
dollars
and
we
can
make
the
necessary
corrections
if
we
have
to
for
sr2
funding.
It
was
like
566
thousand
five
hundred
and
twenty
five
dollars
and
for
esser
three,
what
has
been
approved
as
of
october.
N
Okay,
a
few
of
our
priorities,
and
you
would
also
see
those
on
the
brochure
that
we
hand
it
to
you.
One
is
addressing
the
achievement
gap
and
the
learning
laws,
and
I
would
like
to
say-
and
in
doing
this
we
have
a
draft
of
a
robust
summer
school
plan.
When
I
arrived
in
july
last
year,
we
actually
only
had
less
than
10
students
from
the
junior
high
and
high
school
participate
in
summer
school,
and
that
was
largely
due
to
us
not
having
a
principal
in
the
junior
high
high
school.
N
But
again,
we
are
in
talks
now
with
our
leadership
team,
to
develop
a
robust
summer
school
plan
for
the
junior
high
and
high
school,
approximately
85
percent
of
our
largest
elementary
school,
those
students
attended
summer
school
and
at
our
shure
school,
roughly
87
percent
of
those
students
also
attended
summer
school
and
in
our
plan
for
revisions
for
the
summer
school.
We
hope
to
not
only
provide
academics,
but
we
also
want
to
provide
some
enrichment
activities
as
well.
N
Another
one
of
our
priorities
is
providing
high
quality
specialized
instructional
support,
and
this
is
providing
the
instructional
support
for
our
students
and
for
our
staff
and
we've
been
able
to
use
these
funds
to
hire
safe
school
professionals
as
well
as
a
mental
health
counselor.
You
know
for
our
schools
in
our
district.
N
Our
fourth
priority
is
the
safe
reopening
of
schools
and
sustaining
safe
operations.
It
is
our
goal
in
mental
county
school
district
to
keep
our
students
in
school.
That's
our
number
one
goal.
We
want
to
keep
our
kids
in
school.
While
we
know
that
we
are
under
the
mass
mandate
we
are
currently
face
to
face
and
our
kids
are
wearing
mass
daily.
N
Another
priority
is
the
supporting
of
sustaining
a
stabilized
workforce.
Again.
Recruitment
and
retention
has
been
hard,
but
we
also
had
to
use
these
funds
to
hire
an
interim
principal
again.
You
know
when
I
took
the
seat.
We
did
not
have
a
junior
high
high
school
principal,
but
we've
been
able
to
use
these
funds
to
hire
a
junior
high
high
school
principal
okay.
N
As
far
as
facility
maintenance
and
capital
improvements,
our
oldest
school
on
the
campus,
was
built
back
in
the
40s.
Would
you
say
that's
correct,
kathy
roughly
in
the
40s,
and
we've
also
been
able
to
allocate
some
of
the
funds
to
improve
the
windows
because
many
of
our
windows
at
our
elementary
schools,
they
don't
open.
So
we've
been
able
to
use
some
of
the
funds,
but
we're
hoping
to
use
some
of
the
funds
to
improve
the
window.
So
the
windows
could
slide
up.
N
O
Very
good,
thank
you
for
the
record
kathy
trujill
france
manager
of
middle
county
school
district.
So
when
we
arrived,
our
sr2
application
actually
had
not
been
completed.
So
mr
ponder's
task
and
my
task
was
to
actually
complete
both
the
sr2
and
the
sr3
while
doing
robust
stakeholder
engagement
and
establishing
priorities,
and
so
the
ezr2
application
includes
the
interim
principle.
As
mr
ponder
stated
last
year,
the
superintendent
was
also
the
high
school
junior
high
principal,
and
so
we
were
able
to
kind
of
make
a
case
for
having
that
interim
principal
funded
through
these
funds.
O
O
Some
of
these
other
positions
are
brand
new,
we're
in
the
process
of
hiring,
as
other
districts
have
said,
it
is
a
difficult
position,
but
we
have
some
some
interesting
strategies
to
go
ahead
and
attempt
to
recruit
and
retain
individuals
in
the
middle
county,
school
district
and
some
of
our
principals
are
very
skilled
at
recruiting
for
their
own
individual
schools
as
well.
So
for
sures
we
have
a
learning
strategist
on
board
at
the
hawthorne
elementary.
O
O
Some
of
the
strategies
that
we're
going
to
need
to
put
in
place
in
order
to
to
understand
the
trauma
that
that
not
being
able
to
go
to
school
or
maybe
being
academically
behind
what
causes
our
students
and
then
the
stress
that
some
of
these
activities
has
caused
our
staff
and
so
we'll
we'll
be
continuing
to
work
with
mr
holt
throughout
probably
the
next
two
year
period,
with
our
with
our
secondary
students,
we
had
the
good
fortune
of
being
in
school
full-time
all
year
last
year,
so
those
students
had
the
luxury
of
the
in-person
school
year.
O
During
last,
you
know
the
last
year
and
so
in.
In
addition
to
maintaining
our
our
academic
standards,
we
were
able
to
accelerate
by
offering
dual
credit
courses
and
textbooks,
and
I
have
to
say
that
the
the
universities
that
we're
working
with
wnc
and
gbc
have
been
wonderful
partners
in
helping
increase.
Our
ability
to
sustain
our
students
abilities
to
accelerate
their
education,
even
in
spite
of
a
pandemic,
and
so
we're
very
happy
with
that.
Of
course,
all
of
those
positions
include
fringe.
O
O
A
percent
have
we've
spent
about
63
percent
of
that,
and
so
we'll
be
continuing
to
go
forward
to
spend
down
the
sr2
as
we
work
forward
with
the
sr3
county
was
able-
and
we
understand
that
the
people
that
are
currently
working
for
us
that
are
currently
helping
maintain
safe
instruction
are
essential,
and
so
we
were
able
to
provide
an
essential
worker
incentive
right
prior
to
thanksgiving
to
every
employee
in
the
amount
of
two
thousand
dollars.
O
Our
safe
school
professionals
are
also
in
here
they
were
grant
funded
and
so
we're
also
like
other
districts
having
a
little
difficulty
in
retaining
four.
But
we
have
partnered
with
a
community
organization,
and
so
we
have
some.
We
have
some
unique
ways
to
provide
the
sel
and
the
mental
health
services
that
we
need.
Also
in
monroe
county.
O
There
is
a
a
plan
to
to
bring
a
non-adjudicated
treatment
center
and
so
we're
hoping
that,
if
that
happens
in
july
of
this
year,
we'll
have
some
mental
health
professionals
within
the
community
that
we
can
also
lean
on
a
little
bit
to
help
us
get
through
this
difficult
time
for
tutoring,
fy,
22
and
23.
We
have
allocated
85
000
for
the
entire
school
year.
O
Each
school
is
planning
a
robust,
after-school
tutoring
program
ensures
that
includes
also
some
century
21
funds
as
well
at
the
junior
high
school
and-
and
it
also
includes
enrichment
activities,
food
and
transportation
as
needed,
and
that
will
probably
be
ongoing
throughout
the
rest
of
the
next
two
school
years.
Insurers.
We
have
an
elementary
school
teacher
that
we're
trying
to
recruit
in
order
to
reduce
the
amount
of
blended
classrooms
that
we
have
thinking
that
that
dedicated
teacher
will
kind
of
help
increase
the
the
ability
for
our
students
to
succeed.
O
The
only
allocation
that
we
have
for
building
improvement
was
the
amino
county
high
school
junior,
high
school
library,
so
that
library
actually
was
not
available
to
students
due
to
lack
of
staffing,
and
so
we
were
really
not
able
to
have
a
lot
of
students
that
could
take
community
college
classes
on
site.
So
in
in
coordination
with
wnc,
we
have
created
a
student
center
where
we've
taken
the
library
and
we've
hired
a
paraprofessional,
we're
kind
of
creating
the
first
ever
digital
library
in
mineral
county.
O
In
addition,
some
space
for
after
school
and
potentially
even
some
weekend
classes
with
a
partnership
through
wnc
and
then,
of
course,
we
didn't
want
to
not
include
any
kind
of
professional
development
so
that
we
can
all
continue
to
move
forward
as
for
as
we're
progressing
through
the
the
pandemic
and
make
sure
that
everybody
has
the
training
that
they
feel
like
they
need.
And
so
those
are
our
first
two
third
allocation
expenditures.
O
Our
remainder
is
currently
under
discussion,
as
we
continue
to
build
priorities
and,
as
you
can
see,
with
our
with
our
flyer,
there's
over
173
suggestions
that
we've
received
and
so
scaling
those
down
into
our
priorities
and
making
sure
that
our
stakeholders
feel
like
they've
been
heard
and
that
we
are
taking
everyone's
ideas
into
consideration
is
something
that
we're
actually
taking
our
time
with
and
making
sure
that
we're
meeting
the
needs
of
everyone.
N
A
Thank
you
so
much
mr
ponder,
and
thank
you
for
being
here
today.
I
know
you
haven't
been
there
long,
but
that
was
exactly
my
feeling.
I
was
trying
to
get
a
cross-section
of
big
districts:
smaller
districts,
rural
urban,
but
also
superintendents,
who
have
been
here
and
not
and
not
served
us
as
long,
and
so
I
appreciate
your
expertise.
You
bring
from
your
last
position
as
well
as
the
thought
and
foresight
that
you're
putting
into
the
one
that
you're
in
now.
So
thank
you
so
much.
Thank.
A
N
Okay,
yes,
yes,
sure
as
well
as
hawthorne
elementary,
because
currently
the
windows
don't
open.
So
we're
looking
at
windows
that
you
know
that
open.
A
And
also
knowing
the
landscape
in
hawthorne,
insurers
are
those
are
there
outside
areas
that
you
need
to
enhance
as
well
or
is
it
just
that
piece
there.
N
F
F
F
N
A
Any
other
questions
or
comments
from
the
committee
well
welcome,
as
the
assemblywoman
said.
Welcome
to
nevada
we're
happy
to
have
you.
I
know
that
you're
in
a
incredibly
rural
area-
and
you
have
great
needs
and
we
feel
very
confident
that
we
are-
we
have
the
right
people
in
place
with
you.
So
thank
you.
Thank
you
all
right
with
that.
We'll
go
to
white
pine
and
we'll
go
to
mr
young,
who
has.
P
Okay,
excellent,
thank
you
so
much
and
thank
you
for
this
opportunity
to
share
a
little
bit
about
what
we
have
going
on
in
the
white
pine
county
school
district.
For
the
record,
my
name
is
adam
young.
I
am
a
lifelong
nevada
resident
born
and
raised
here
in
white
pine,
county
graduate
of
white
pine
high
school
and
just
proud
to
serve
our
state
and
our
students
in
in
this
role.
It's
it
is
a
great
honor.
P
It
is
also
more
challenging
than
it
ever
has
been,
which
I
know
you're
all
very,
very
well
aware
of,
and
so
we
we
do.
Thank
you
for
your
support,
I'm
honored
to
work
with
these
excellent.
Ladies
and
gentlemen,
who
have
shared
this
information
with
you
so
far,
they're
they're,
a
very
good
group
and
dedicated
to
the
students
of
this
state.
P
Well,
I'm
just
going
to
go
ahead
and
launch
right
in.
I
wanted
to
give
you
just
some
context
of
a.
I
guess,
a
big
picture,
a
little
bit
of
how
our
school
district
has
responded
to
the
pandemic
before
I
launch
into
the
information
on
the
finances.
So
when
we
went
when
everything
shut
down.
Fortunately,
we
were
a
google
district
already
and
our
our
teachers
were
prepared
to
use
the
google
platform
as
their
learning
management
system,
and
we
had
a
really
smooth.
I
mean
relative,
it's
all
relative
right.
P
P
We,
like
mr
ponder,
was
saying
all
of
our
schools
here
in
white
pine
were
open
for
in-person
instruction
all
day
every
day
of
august
20.,
that's
something
that
we're
able
to
do,
because
our
facilities
file
very
old
are
at
least
large
and
spacious,
and
that
allowed
us
to
utilize
the
physical
distancing
and
and
make
sure
that
our
kids
were
back
on
campus.
P
Most
of
our
kids,
I
should
say
we
had
86
of
them
who
were
back
on
campus
and
the
rest
of
them.
We
served
through
our
online
delivery
platform
since
this
whole
thing
started
and
honestly
far
prior
to
that,
we
have
continued
with
our
after
school
supports
and
and
the
friday
learning
that
we
offer
for
students.
You
may
be
aware
that
we're
a
four
day
school
week
here
in
white
pine
and
we
have
been
since
2010,
but
our
schools
are
not
closed
on
fridays.
P
We
have
students
in
the
building
every
single
friday,
and
that's
one
thing
that
we
really
focused
on
trying
to
be
more
directive
about
which
students
we
wanted
to
come
as
to
as
opposed
to
having
that
be
kind
of
voluntary.
P
P
We
all
have
a
vision
of
where
it
is
that
we
want
to
go.
That
vision
is
aligned
with
our
state
improvement
plan
and
in
white
pine.
You
can
see
on
the
screen
there.
What
our
theories
of
action
are.
P
Our
theories
of
action
are,
you
know
the
strategies
that
we
believe
will
will
be
the
highest
yield
strategies
they're
the
ones
that
that
are
going
to
give
us
the
most
bang
for
our
buck,
and
then
you
can
see-
and
I
didn't
include
these
in
here-
but
our
measurable
student
outcomes
in
those
three
areas
as
well
so
as
we've
spent
this
money
at
the
very
very
forefront
of
our
thinking-
is
how
do
we
leverage
these
dollars
to
move
us
forward
with
the
goals
that
we
have
in
our
strategic
plan?
P
Obviously
part
of
the
dollars
are
just
for
survival.
We
all
recognize
that,
but
we
didn't
want
it
to
be
limited
to
that
and
to
every
extent
possible.
We
have
really
strived
to
make
sure
that
every
dollar
that
we've
spent
moves
us
closer
to
the
the
objectives
that
are
outlined
in
our
district
performance
plan.
P
The
process
that
we've
used
again
everything
has
been
kind
of
guided
and
benchmarked
by
our
performance
plan.
I
have
a
very
comprehensive
district
leadership
team
that
includes
students,
parents,
support
staff,
teachers,
principals,
etc.
P
The
safe
return
plan
was
a
big
part,
as
we
determined
in
the
summer
of
2020
that
that
we
felt
like
the
right
thing
for
our
community
and
based
on
our
community's
input
was
to
be
in
person,
and
so
a
lot
of
our
expenditures
have
been
guided
by
how
we
can
make
that
happen
and
how
we
can
keep
that
going
on.
P
You
can
see
there
that
there's
some
additional
committees,
all
of
which
are
our
publicly
agendized
meetings,
that
we
encourage
and
invite
people
to
come
to,
so
that
we
can
gather
their
feedback
and
incorporate
their
ideas
and
thoughts
and
needs
into
the
way
that
we
spend
this
money
and
then,
of
course,
there's
the
the
board
meetings
that
you
know
that
we
have
twice
a
month
as
well.
P
Okay,
so
without
further
ado,
let
me
try
to
address
some
of
the
the
items
that
you
wanted
to
hear
about.
P
All
of
my
slides
on
this
are
going
to
follow
this
same
format.
I'm
going
to
share
with
you
what
our
priorities
were
just
very
briefly
outline
some
of
the
major
expenditures
and
then
you'll
have
at
the
bottom
what
our
total
total
allocation
was
so
priorities
for
just
the
first
amount
of
of
esser
funds.
We
wanted
to
get
kids
back
on
campus
all
day
every
day.
P
These
are
some
of
the
ways
that
we
spent
that
money
friday
and
summer
learning
again,
you
can
see
there
a
pretty
significant
chunk
of
those
funds,
eighty
thousand
dollars
for
our
distance
learning
students
and
not
just
for
them,
but
also
updating
the
on-campus
technology
for
our
teachers
and
our
students,
so
that
in
the
event
we
had
to
shut
down
and
go
full
distance
learning,
everybody
had
had
the
infrastructure
available
to
do
that
again.
Meeting
the
the
safe
and
operational
school
environments.
P
P
I
think
I
heard
mr
ponder
say
how
challenging
it
is
to
be
a
chief
district
nurse.
Nowadays
we
do
only
have
one
of
those
here
in
our
district
and
she
has
been
working
our
tail
off.
We
hired
her
shortly
before
a
covet
hit,
and
so
that's
all
she
knows
right
now
and
we
use
this
allocation
to
you
know
I
mean
she
spends
24
7
dealing
with
covet
even
today.
So
that's
how
we
spent
that
allocation.
P
I
wanted
to
touch
briefly
on
the
gear
funds
from
about
a
year
ago,
our
allocation-
there
was
also
fifty
thousand
dollars
and
again
I'll
talk
about
this
a
little
bit
later,
but
the
social
emotional
needs
of
our
students
and
our
staff
wow
it's.
It
is
tough,
there's
just
a
lot
of
tough
stuff
going
on,
and
so
this
you
know
again
pretty
pretty
straightforward.
We
wanted
to
make
sure
that
we
had
that
support
and
that's
how
we
spent
the
money.
P
Okay.
This
is
a
a
slight
veer
off
because
there
were
some
competitive
funds
that
were
offered
through
the
department
of
education's
allocation
of
these
funds
that
they
allowed
districts
to
apply,
for
we
are
very
aggressive
in
our
competitive
grant.
Writing
anytime,
an
opportunity
comes
up,
we
take
advantage
of
it
and
that's
what
we
did
here
so,
as
you
saw
with
our
performance
plan
on
one
of
my
earlier
slides
dramatically.
P
Improving
tier
one
instruction
is,
is
our
end
game
and
that
hasn't
that
hasn't
we
haven't
relented
on
that
during
during
covet,
we
have
worked
really
hard
to
try
to
continue
moving
forward,
so
we
did
put
in
a
competitive
application
for
about
91
000.
P
This
fall
so
in
the
midst
of
all
of
the
other
craziness
that
was
going
on
with
covid,
I'm
just
so
proud
of
my
math
professionals,
who
spent
a
lot
of
outside
of
contract
time
last
year,
working
with
west
ed,
to
determine
what
types
of
options
are
going
to
be
best
for
the
math
learning
of
our
students
going
forward.
It
was,
it
was
a
heavy
lift,
but
but
they
did
a
great
job
with
that.
P
About
a
year
ago,
as
well
after
we
had
some
money
from
our
states,
and
I
wanted
to
just
touch
on
that
as
well,
so
you
can
see
some
priorities
here.
I
mentioned
before
school
culture
and
climate
you're
all
aware
that
a
few
years
ago,
assembly
bill
168
was
passed
by
the
legislature,
helping
students
or
sorry
helping
schools
move
forward
in
the
idea
of
restorative
practices.
P
P
You
can
see
our
priorities
as
a
district
up
there,
academic
movement,
culture
and
climate,
the
affective
realm
school
students,
mental
health
teachers,
mental
health,
etc
and
then
distance
learning.
So
one
of
the
great
things
that
we're
able
to
do
with
this
in
order
to
impact
those
first
two
bullets
under
priorities
is
we
hired
additional
teachers.
P
We
hired
three
additional
teachers
at
white,
pine,
middle
school,
two
additional
teachers
at
white
pine,
high
school
and
then
some
college
and
career
instructional
specialists
at
david
norman
elementary
school.
The
idea
there
is
that,
if
we
want
to
engage
kids,
we
need
to
have
more
offerings
for
them
that
that
make
them
really
really
want
to
be
back
on.
Our
campus
budget
issues
have
historically
been
a
problem
in
white
pine,
which
is
has
caused
us
to
cut
positions
rather
than
add
them
back.
P
So
it's
been
a
real
benefit
to
be
able
to
have
additional
bodies
on
our
campus
so
that
the
load
is
shareable
from
our
staff
and
so
that
our
kids
are
able
to
choose
options
for
them
that
that
they
love
and
that
they
want
to
be
there,
and
I
I
have
such
a
short
period
of
time.
I
could
I
promise
you.
I
could
tell
you
some
stories
that
would
just
bring
tears
to
your
eyes
and
make
you
so
proud,
but
I'm
going
to
refrain
from
that,
because
it
would
take
the
rest
today.
P
So
you
can
see
what
some
of
those
expenditures
are
and
the
dollar
amounts
that
are
correlated
with.
Those
people
are
expensive
and
our
our
philosophy
has
been
if
we
want
to
move
forward
with
our
academic
learning
and
our
social
emotional
supports.
We
got
to
have
people
to
do
that.
It
doesn't
matter
what
program
you
buy.
If
you
don't
have
people
to
do
it,
it's
not
going
to
work.
P
P
Here's
the
arp
esser
summary
now
we
have
not
spent
all
of
this
money.
Obviously,
yet
we
have
some
of
it
a
good
chunk
of
it
actually
budgeted
into
the
next
school
year.
P
One
of
the
biggest
challenges
is
keeping
people
working
for
schools.
Nowadays
it
is
hard
hard
work.
So,
like
some
of
my
colleagues
mentioned,
we
have
provided
a
an
incentive
for
retention.
We
provided
that
last
august
we
have
another
one
coming
up
for
for
employees
who
re-sign
with
us
going
into
next
school
year,
trying
to
support
again
our
our
students,
core
academic
movement
and
their
college
and
career
ready
opportunities.
P
One
of
the
things
that's
really
exciting
this
year,
which
you
can
see
on
this
slide
down
under
expenditures,
is
we're
paying
the
tuition
for
each
and
every
senior
in
the
school
district.
To
take
english
101
in
english,
so
every
every
graduate
in
2022
here
in
just
a
couple
months
will
graduate
with
six
credits
of
college
english.
P
We
already
have
a
pretty
high
rate
of
dual
dual
credit
completion
because
that's
been
in
one
of
our
initiatives
for
many
years,
but
to
have
every
single
senior
graduate
with
those
credits
and
then
to
be
able
to
provide
them
the
support
so
that
they
get
a
taste
of
what
college
work
is
like,
while
they're
still
on
our
campus
and
have
some
of
our
safety
nets.
That's
been
something
that's
really
important
to
see.
We
funded
a
full-time
distance
education
teacher
again
this
year.
P
Again,
I
mentioned
it
before,
but
we've
had
a
a
really
robust
summer
learning
program.
Last
summer
we
have
another
robust
one
planned
for
this
summer
and
and
every
single
friday
after
my
teachers
have
already
worked
their
their
38
to
45
hours,
they're
back
on
campus
and
we're
paying
them,
of
course,
so
that
those
students
who
really
need
extra
support
can
be
here
and
get
that
we
did
hire
additional
social
worker
support,
which
you
can
see
down
there.
P
He
is
busy
busy
busy
every
single
day
and
if
we
had
more
in
the
community
to
hire,
we
would
hire
them.
The
last
major
expenditure
that
I
want
to
highlight
here
is
is
the
third
bullet
down
under
expenditures
and
that's
again,
additional
ftes,
so
those
teachers
that
I
discussed
hiring
this
year
that
we
paid
for
through
sr2.
P
P
All
right-
and
I
think
this
is
my
my
last
one
but
again,
as
I
mentioned
before-
we
we
try
to
take
advantage
of
every
competitive
grant
opportunity
and
the
department
of
education
recently
had
one
that
was
again
focused
on
restorative
practices,
trauma-informed
care
and
other
types
of
social,
emotional
learning.
So
we
were
just
awarded
this
for
fifty
thousand
dollars.
This
I
mean
this
was
about
two
weeks
ago.
We've
already
had
our
consultants
on
campus.
P
He
was
here
with
us
last
week,
spent
two
days
in
our
schools
and
then
helped
us
with
the
district-wide
training
on
friday.
Again
re
re-emphasizing
the
mindset
of
what
it
means
to
be
restorative.
P
All
of
those
tier
one,
instructional
measures
for
social,
emotional
learning,
which
some
teachers
are
just
naturally
gifted
at
and
others
really
need-
need
a
lot
of
support
in
order
to
get
there.
But
there's
just
never
been
a
more
important
time
for
a
school
district
to
focus
on
that
than
there
is
now.
So
he
spent
three
or
four
days
with
us
last
week.
P
So
that
is
my
last
slide
and
I'm
going
to
unshare.
I
think,
hopefully
here
in
a
second-
and
I
will
ask
if
I
can
answer
any
of
your
questions.
A
A
So
maybe
it
was
there
that
I
ran
into.
I
forgot
whether
it
was
middle
school
or
high
school,
but
thank
you
for
all
you're
doing
for
our
kids
and
for
our
state
and
thank
you
for
the
continued
work
in
progress
that
the
expertise
has
come
in
handy
during
this
unprecedented
time.
A
P
We
had
42
of
our
of
our
1
300
students,
so
500
between
450
and
500
students
on
campus
last
summer.
A
Wow,
that's
what
I
thought
you
said,
and
I
thought
that
was
really
remarkable:
that
50
in
a
small
setting
like
that
50
of
those
parents
and
students,
saw
the
value
of
doing
that
during
the
summer.
So
thank
you
for
providing
that
and
thank
you
for
doing
that.
Also,
thank
you
for
the
mental
health
work
that
you
are
doing,
because
we
can't
dismiss
that
in
any
setting,
big
or
small.
F
Madam
chair
and
not
a
question
but
mr
young,
it
is
so
impressive
to
see
that
you
grew
up
in
the
community.
You
came
back
to
work
in
the
community
and
leading
the
school
district
conversation
offline.
You
have
to
teach
us
how
we
can
continue
to
grow
educators
within
our
communities
to
come
back
and
and
stay
and
share
their
talents.
So
thank
you
so
much
for
reaching
out.
F
A
And
that
is
exactly
how
we
learn
by
listening
to
each
other
right
I
mean
when
we
quit
listening,
we
quit
learning
and,
and
so,
as
you
can
see
by
all
our
presentations,
I
I
can
understand
where,
if
I'm
a
superintendent,
no
matter
the
amount
of
students
that
I
serve,
how
I
would
learn
from
others.
So
thank
you
very
much,
and
I
appreciate
your
time.
I
appreciate
you
being
here
today
with
with
no
more
questions
on
the
board.
A
I
know
you're
waiting,
but
we
have
been
here
at
it
since
8
30
and
I
think
that
we
need
to
take
about
a
20
minute
break
or
so
so
if
we
could
come
back
at
12
15
and
we
will
have
our
last
presentation
from
the
public
charter
school
authority
and
for
those
superintendents
that
we
have
taken
your
morning.
Thank
you
very
much.
We
would
welcome
you
to
stay
on,
but
we
will
be
back
at
12
15..
A
Thank
you
so
much
welcome
back.
I
hope
you
all
had
a
short
break
of
a
walk
around
the
desk.
We
will
now
continue
on
with
our
presentations,
and
this
has
been
such
fabulous
information,
and
so
we
look
forward
to
hearing
the
state
public
charter
school
authority
and
I
believe,
rebecca
fein
is
with
us
today
and
ms
biden
as
soon
as
you
are
ready.
If
you
would
like
to
go
ahead,
please
do
so.
D
Good
afternoon,
thank
you
so
much
rebecca
feiden.
I,
your
ex
executive
director
of
the
state
public
charter
school
authority
for
the
record
good
afternoon,
chair
dondero,
loop
and
members
of
the
committee.
D
D
Before
I
get
into
the
details
of
the
emergency
funds,
I
do
want
to
provide
some
brief
background
about
how
our
grants
are
managed
at
the
state
public
charter
school
authority,
since
it
is
so
unique
so
for
context.
When
we
receive
a
grant
allocation
from
the
nevada
department
of
education,
we
then
generate
allocations
for
each
of
the
eligible
schools
for
some
grants.
The
state
public
charter
school
authority
will
also
reserve
a
small
percentage
of
funds
for
charter
school-wide
activities
and
to
cover
the
administration
of
the
grants
at
the
state
public
charter
school
authority.
D
Once
we've
created
the
allocations
for
schools,
then
each
school
goes
about
creating
an
application
for
the
use
of
those
funds
and
those
applications
are
based
on
the
school's
local
needs
and
informed
by
their
constituents
once
they
submit
an
application
to
the
state
public
charter
school
authority.
We
conduct
an
initial
review
of
those
applications
for
budget
details
and
allowability,
and
once
we
have
satisfied
and
believe
that
those
applications
are
complete
and
accurate
and
appropriate,
we
will
send
them,
compile
them
and
then
bring
them
together
to
submit
a
single
application
to
the
department
of
education.
D
D
At
that
point,
we
can
begin
the
process
for
reimbursements
and,
as
you
may
know,
the
state
public
charter
school
authority
reimburses
schools
after
we
confirm
appropriate
documentation
and
that
there
are
allowable
costs
and
then
once
we've
made
that
reimbursement
to
a
school.
We
then
take
that
documentation
to
the
department
of
education
and
seek
reimbursement
for
those
costs.
D
So
again
just
want
to
make
sure
that
that
that
context
is
in
mind
as
we
talk
about
the
information
today
so
today
we're
going
to
cover
three
three
points
and
again
I'll
be
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
First,
we're
going
to
talk
about
what
funds
have
been
allocated
to
the
charter
authority
to
date.
Second,
how
we
have
allocated
those
funds
to
our
schools
and,
finally,
how
schools
have
used
or
planned
to
use
those
funds
that
have
been
allocated.
D
D
On
this
first
first
slide,
you'll
see
the
funds
that
were
allocated
under
the
cares,
act
and
you'll
see
that
we
had
sr1
funding
on
a
formula
basis
as
well
as
sr1
funding
through
the
competitive
grant
process,
the
department
of
education
ran
and
then
additionally,
we
received
year
one
funding
and
corona
coronavirus
relief
fund
funding,
which
was
in
two
parts,
the
83
funding,
as
well
as
a
second
allotment
which
is
commonly
referred
to
as
cohort
two
in
terms
of
the
carissa
act.
The
state
public
charter
school
authority
received
an
allocation
of
sr2
funds.
D
D
D
So
while
we
have
the
amount
for
the
final
third,
we
have
not
yet
allocated
those
funds
to
schools
as
you'll
see
on
subsequent
slides.
Additionally,
we
did
receive
an
allocation
of
arp
idea
funding,
which
is
supplemental
funding
for
students
with
special
needs.
And
finally,
as
you
know,
there
was
an
allocation
of
15
million
dollars
through
assembly
bill
495
from
the
2021
legislative
session
for
title
1
charter
schools.
At
this
point,
we
are
still
working
through
specifics
with
the
governor's
finance
office
about
how
we
can
allocate
these
funds
and
are
hopeful.
These
will
be
provided.
D
So
now
we'll
talk
about
how
we
actually
allocated
the
funds
to
schools,
so
starting
with
sr1,
the
formula
funds
were
allocated
to
schools
on
a
per
pupil
basis.
We
did
provide
a
slightly
higher
per
pupil
for
students
that
qualify
for
free
reduced
price
lunch.
D
In
addition,
I
mentioned
previously
that
we
had
sr1
competitive
funds,
the
charter
authority,
on
behalf
of
interested
schools,
applied
for
about
1.4
million
dollars
in
funding.
Obviously,
it's
competitive,
there
was
a
limited
amount
of
funding
and
so
about
761
000
was
allocated
to
the
authority,
and
that
was
for
specific
activities,
so
that
wasn't
done
on
a
formula
basis.
Whatever
activities
were
funded
were
the
ones
that
we
then
allocated
to
schools
for
moving
on
both
gear
and
funding
through
83.
D
Those
allocations
were
determined
by
the
department
of
education,
so
the
the
allocations
were
given
to
us
and
we
followed
those
allocations
to
our
schools.
The
second
round
of
crf
funding,
cohort
2
as
we
refer
to
it,
was
unique.
We
had
just
over
a
month
to
expend
those
funds,
and
so
in
close
communication
with
the
department
of
education
worked
to
transfer
eligible
expenditures
that
had
initially
been
under
sr1
over
to
crf,
so
that
we
could
then
redistribute
sr1
funding
and
make
sure
that
those
dollars
were
spent.
D
In
terms
of
sr2,
estre2
allocations
were
developed
to
provide
additional
funding
to
schools
with
students
qualifying
for
free
and
reduced
lunch,
english
learners
and
students
with
ieps.
So
every
school
received
funding
and
there
was
base
funding
for
every
child.
But
there
was
additional
funding
for
every
student
in
one
of
those
special
population
groups,
with
the
understanding
that
those
populations
may
have
been
potentially
more
impacted
by
the
loss
of
in-person
learning.
D
And
then,
finally,
with
the
arp
allocations,
the
again
the
first
two
thirds
of
the
arps
are
funds
have
been
allocated
to
schools.
This
was
done
on
a
per
people
basis
again,
but
we
did
do
a
supplemental
allocation
for
our
charter.
Schools,
with
higher
percentages
of
students
qualifying
for
free
and
reduced
price
lunch,
and
so
again,
with
all
three
of
our
essar
funds,
really
tried
to
focus
on
making
sure
that
additional
funds
were
allocated
to
those
schools
that
had
higher
percentage
of
students
that
may
be
impacted
by
the
pandemic.
D
So
now
we'll
talk
about
the
use
of
funds,
since
there
were
a
variety
of
funding
streams,
some
on
the
order
of
hundreds
of
thousands
and
some
on
the
order
of
tens
of
millions,
it
became
very
hard
for
us
to
figure
out
how
to
visualize
this
and
be
able
to
show
it
by
each
individual
grant.
We
do
have
that
data,
but
in
order
to
look
at
trends
across
multiple
funding
streams,
what
we
want
to
ended
up
doing
was
combining
all
the
funding
streams
together.
D
So
we
could
look
at
really
what
types
of
expenses
were
primarily
used
for
these
for
these
funds.
So
on
this
slide,
you
will
see
a
table
with
all
the
funds
that
have
been
or
planned
to
be
expended
by
schools
when
combining
all
the
funding
sources
that
have
been
allocated
to
date.
I
will
note
for
somebody
doing
some
back
of
the
napkin
math
here
the
crf
funds
were
handled
through
what
we
call
a
paper
grant.
They
weren't
done
through
our
electronic
grant
system,
and
so
our
database
did
not
build
that
into
this.
D
But
again
this
represents
the
vast
majority
of
funds
that
were
allocated
to
date
and
then
I
will
also
note
that
some
of
these
allocations
are
pending
approval
by
nde,
particularly
our
arp
esr
funds,
but
because
they
have
gone
through
review
at
our
level.
We
included
them
in
the
data,
because
that
is
how
schools
intend
to
spend
the
funds
that
have
been
allocated
so
to
better
understand
trends
in
terms
of
how
schools
are
using
their
funds.
D
Additionally,
you'll
see
a
large
sums
of
funding
for
both
technology
for
technology,
both
hardware
and
software,
so
the
technology
items
of
higher
value,
that
is,
is
basically
items
like
computers
and
then
web-based
and
similar
programs
again
a
lot
of
technology
expenditures
and
then
finally,
we
also
saw
larger
amounts
of
money
spent
on
general
supplies
as
well
as
services.
D
Finally,
I
know
that
there
was
some
interest
in
discussion
at
the
beginning
of
this
meeting
about
funding
broken
out
by
school
and
by
county
again
we
do
have
all
of
that
data
and
while
the
meeting
was
going
on,
we
were
able
to
break
it
down
by
county.
So
speaking,
just
in
terms
of
the
esser
funds
that
have
been
allocated
to
date,
so
that
would
be
sr1
sr2
and
the
first
two
thirds
of
arp
esser
combined.
D
That's
approximately
59
million
dollars
that
has
been
allocated
to
schools
so
far,
and
of
that
approximately
55.3
million
was
allocated
to
schools
and
students
in
clark
county.
This
is
a
reflective
of
the
fact
that
the
majority
of
our
students
are
located
in
clark
county,
and
so
the
majority
of
our
dollars
are
being
directed
to
schools
and
students
in
those
in
clark
county.
Additionally,
approximately
2.6
million
was
allocated
to
schools
in
washoe
county,
and
then
we
have
three
schools
located
in
rural
communities
and
approximately
1.1
million
was
allocated
to
the
three
schools
in
those
rural
communities.
D
So
with
that,
I
know
this
is
relatively
high
level.
I
think
you'll
have
a
number
of
questions,
but
I
would
be
happy
to
to
answer
any
questions.
You
may
have
and
again
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
share
some
information
today.
A
A
Well,
while
the
committee's
processing
questions,
I
will
ask
one:
when
you
talked
about
salaries
and
you
talked
about
additional
full-time
employees
or
part-time
employees.
Can
you
tell
me
what
those
people
are
being
hired
to
do.
D
Thank
you,
senator
donderly.
I
have
believe
it
or
not
about
3
000
rows
of
budget
data
in
front
of
me
here
in
an
excel
sheet,
so
we
could
certainly
provide
more
details,
but,
generally
speaking,
we
see
those
as
instructional,
so
whether
that
is
additional
teaching
staff
or
interventionists.
D
In
the
last
year,
we've
seen
some
of
the
funding
kind
of
change
in
that
realm,
and
so
we
saw
some
schools
use
funding
to
keep
those
positions
and
then
again
we
also
saw
a
number
of
schools
invest
in
social
workers,
counselors
individuals
to
support
students
with
social,
emotional
learning,
as
well
as
mental
health.
A
D
Rebecca
fighting
for
the
record,
I
do
know
that
a
number
of
our
schools
have
had
situations
where
they
have
had
to
to
hire
long-term
substitutes
and
things
because
they
have
had
staffing
shortages.
I
think
that
is
the
case
across
our
community.
D
That
said,
I
think
in
in
many
cases
these
were
staff
to
augment,
as
well
as
positions
that
might
have
otherwise
gone
away,
that
they
were
able
to
to
keep
going
into
another
year
again.
Some
of
these
funds
have
not
been
extended
yet,
but
I
can
give
you
know.
For
example,
one
one
school
in
particular
hired
a
a
paraprofessional
to
support
one
for
every
two
classrooms.
D
They
have
a
really
unique
plan.
Their
intention
is
to
have
that
individual
or
those
individuals
support
with
small
group
instruction
tutoring,
and
then
they
actually
have
built
a
plan
to
continue
to
have
those
individuals
work
towards
both
the
educational
and
licensure
requirements
needed
to
become
fully
certified
in
hopes
that
they
can
help
to
address
two
problems.
The
short-term
need
for
additional
support
for
students,
but
also
the
long-term
needs
with
regard
to
building
our
teacher
pipeline,
which
continues
to
be
a
challenge.
A
A
D
Thank
you
for
the
question
centered
on
daryl
loop.
I
am
probably
going
to
have
to
phone
a
friend
to
get
some
additional
details
on
that
from
our
budget
team.
So
if,
if
okay,
I
would
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
just
provide
a
written
response
to
clarify
between
those
I'm
watching
a
spreadsheet
kind
of
move
in
the
background
and
filter
out
different
things.
But
I
I
want
to
make
sure
to
give
a
full
and
complete
answer
there.
A
Sure
fair
enough
is
there
questions
from
the
committee?
A
I
don't
want
to
keep
asking
questions
if
somebody
else
has
one,
and
could
you
please
clarify
just
as
we
have
asked
the
other
school
districts,
how
many
students,
how
many
schools
and
then
did
you
provide
summer
school.
D
Sure,
thank
you
for
the
question
rebecca
seiden
again
for
the
record
we.
So
what
I'm
going
to
do
is
I'm
going
to
provide
the
data
of
last
summer,
and
so
we
at
at
the
end
of
last
school
year
we
had
67
charter
school
campuses
and
of
those
49
campuses
provided
summer
learning.
D
The
give
me
just
a
moment,
and
I
can
get
you
the
number
of
students
as
well
looks
like
we
had
a
total
of
just
under
6
000
students
participate
and
again
varied
significantly
from
school
to
school,
and
I
will
also
add
that
of
that
number
looks
like
35
of
the
campuses
use,
some
of
their
federal
funds
towards
that
summer.
School
program
and.
D
At
the
end
of
last
school
year
was
approximately
53
000
students,
so
this
represents
just
over
10
percent
of
our
students
participate
in
summer
school.
I
will
note
that
a
number
of
our
schools
chose
to
augment
their
school
calendars
either
at
the
end
of
last
year,
or
this
year,
some
schools,
rather
than
doing
summer
school,
started
early
this
current
school
year
so
wanted
teachers
to
have
a
break
and
decide
to
start
this
school
year
early.
A
Okay,
any
additional
questions
and
I
feel
like
I
have
some,
but
I
can
wait
until
I
get
some
of
this
information
and
then
we
can,
you
know,
continue
if
I
need
to
you
know.
I
always
know
that
you
know
some
of
the
information
we
hear
isn't
is
for
one
reason
or
another
doesn't
coincide
with
everything,
and
so
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
we
have
accurate
information
on.
This
will
be.
D
Thank
you
for
the
question
rebecca
feiden
again
for
the
record.
The
and
again
I
apologize.
I
know
that
charter
schools
are
a
little
bit
different
and
one
of
the
one
of
the
things
that's
unique
is
one
thing
may
be
true
at
one
school
and
and
completely
different
at
another
school
and
that
and
that
can
make
it
a
little
hard
to
to
generalize
again.
There
were
49
campuses
that
provided
summer
school
last
summer
and
of
the
responses
we
received.
It
looks
like
at
least
44
will
be
providing
summer
programming
again
this
summer.
A
Okay,
thank
you
and,
as
you
well
know,
that
back
to
you
know
back
on
track.
Bill
was
important
for
us
and
I
I
personally
feel
like
it's
an
important
piece
for
us
to
continue
since
we're
still
in
the
pandemic,
and
we
still
have
record
learning
loss
with
students
recorded
no
matter
what
school
they're
in.
A
So
just
appreciate
that
information,
if
you
can
get
it
to
me,
because
if
45
campuses
are
having
summer
school
and
we
have
67,
are
those
other
20,
some
campuses,
what
what
is
happening
there
are
they
sending
kids
to
other
schools?
Do
they
not
have
enough
kids?
Did
they
just
say?
No,
we're
not
going
to
do
this
like.
How
does
that
roll.
D
Rebecca
finding
for
the
record,
thank
you
again
for
the
question.
So
again
it's
unique
from
from
school
to
school,
and
I
know
that
that's
a
I
mean
I
keep
giving
that
answer,
and
I
know
that
that's
frustrating.
In
some
cases
they
have
it's
a
charter
holder
that
has
multiple
campuses,
and
so
they
may
not
have
run
the
summer
programming
at
all
of
those
campuses.
In
other
cases,
it's
a
charter
holder
that
opted
not
to
provide
summer
programming.
D
D
They
are
primarily
serving
they
serve
11th
and
12th
graders
through
a
dual
enrollment
program,
so
their
program
is
very
unique
in
terms
of
how
it's
structured
and
so
typically
handle
students
who
may
be
behind
or
need
additional
credits
through
different
mechanisms
than
a
summer
program.
So
again
it
is
unique
from
school
to
school,
but
we'd
be
happy
to
provide
additional
information
about
how
schools
are
addressing
learning
laws.
D
I
I
will
tell
you
that
that
is,
that
is
top
of
mind
for
all
of
our
schools
and
for
the
authority
overall,
we've
provided
through
some
of
our
federal
grants,
not
necessarily
emergency
funding,
a
number
of
professional
learning
opportunities
for
our
school
leaders
to
participate
in
professional
learning
about
how
to
address
potential
learning
loss,
how
to
accelerate
learning.
How
to
ensure
students
in
classrooms
are
actively
engaged
in
monitoring
their
own
progress
and
and
actively
engaged
in
in
lessons.
A
Thank
you
I
yes,
I
would.
I
would
agree
that
all
schools
are
unique.
All
schools
in
any
school
district
are
unique.
I
mean
we
just
heard
from
superintendents
that
have
schools
with
you
know:
seven
kids
versus
107
kids.
So,
yes,
there
are
many
unique
things,
but
as
overseers
of
federal
funding
in
any
form.
For
any
reason,
I
think
it's
important
that
we
have
that
accurate
information,
because
we've
asked
for
it
from
other
school
districts.
A
So
you
know
if
they're
not
providing
that.
How
is
that
happening?
And
well
I
recognize
that
nevada
state
high
school
is
a
dual
enrollment.
A
D
I
I
appreciate
the
question
again
rebecca
signing
for
the
record.
We
we
have
been
in
touch
with
the
department
of
education,
provided
them
with
a
full
listing
of
the
summer
school
program,
information
that
we
collected
and
would
be
happy
to
gather
additional
information.
D
If
it
would
be
helpful,
I
will
also
say
that
each
of
the
the
esser
grants
our
school's
established
goals,
that's
part
of
the
grant
process
and
are
monitoring
our
monitoring
progress
to
those
goals,
and
so
you
know
that's,
that's
part
of
the
grant
process
as
well
is
to
monitor
the
use
of
funds,
as
well
as
the
outcomes
from
the
use
of
those
funds.
A
D
Sorry,
rebecca
fein
for
the
record,
the
department
of
education
sent
a
survey
to,
I
think,
all
the
leas.
But
we
received
a
copy
of
that
survey
and
we're
asked
to
collect
some
information
about
all
of
the
school's
summer
school
programming
which
we
did
and
provided
that
information
to
the
department
which
was
requested.
A
Right-
and
I
guess
that's
where
I
was
going,
I
was
asking
for
that,
and
maybe
I
didn't
make
myself
clear.
I
was
asking
for
that
information
from
you
as
the
other
school
districts
provided
on
some
level.
I
mean
I
heard
everything
from
we
didn't
have
you
know
we
don't
have
we're
worried
about
this
year
because
we
don't
have
enough
bus
drivers
to
somebody
else
said
we
may
not
have
enough
employ.
You
know
everybody
addressed
it
in
some
way
and
I
guess
I'm
asking
for
that
same
information.
D
Thank
you,
senator
donder
loop,
rebecca
fein
again
for
the
record.
I
apologize.
I
have
that
spreadsheet
up
in
front
of
me
and
can
certainly
provide
you
with
more
details.
In
summary,
I
was
preparing
primarily
to
speak
about
the
use
of
funds
today
and
I
apologize
I.
I
was
not
fully
prepared
to
speak
on
that,
though
I
have
the
spreadsheet
it's
just
hard
to
to
aggregate
on
the
fly
here,
but
would
be
happy
to
provide
you
with
additional
details.
If
you'd
like.
A
Okay,
that
and
that's
fine-
I
just
I
guess
I
thought
that
was.
I
guess
I
thought
that
was
part
of
your
federal
funding
that
you
were
using
your
federal
funding
for
that.
So,
if
you're
not
then
you're
absolutely
right,
we
wouldn't
need
that
information
unless
you're
using
federal
funding.
You
know
your
sr
or
your
art
funding.
For
that,
then
I
would
understand
why
it
wouldn't
be
included.
So
thank
you.
A
Okay,
well,
I
appreciate
your
presentation,
ms
biden.
Thank
you
very
much
and
thanks
for
working
through
my
questions
with
me,
I
always
it
doesn't
matter
what
the
entity
is.
I
always
feel
very
strongly
that
when
we
oversee
that
funding,
no
matter
what
the
what
the
school
district
is
or
the
school,
if
we
are
in
charge
of
listening
and
overseeing
that
that
it's
important
for
us
to
hear
all
the
information,
so
I
appreciate
all
of
the
superintendents
today
taking
their
time.
It
has.
A
I
know
that
this
has
gone
on
a
little
longer
than
we
thought,
but
I
think
it
was
really
important
for
us
to
have
this
public
oversight,
and
I
appreciate
your
time
and
if
I
don't
have
any
additional
questions
from
the
committee,
then
we
will
go
to
our
second
and
last
period
of
public
comment
on
the
agenda
because
of
time
considerations.
A
M
G
Give
everybody
a
moment
not
not
a
question
more
more
of
a
comment.
The
one
common
theme
that
I've
heard
today
over
and
over
and
over
again
is
the
more
kids
are
in
school,
the
better
they
do,
and
it
seems
as
though
summer
school
is
becoming
a
hotter
topic
over
and
over
again,
and
I
just
think
it's
something
that
not
necessarily
this
committee,
but
I
think
we're
going
to
want
to
know
how
those
dollars
impacted
summer
school
and
possibly
some
of
the
results
in
the
future.
G
But
I
think,
as
some
of
the
members
of
this
committee
move
forward
in
the
education
world
and
the
legislature
in
the
future,
having
conversations
about
a
more
permanent
structure
for
summer
school
and
or
this,
what
does
our
school
year
really
look
like
we've
heard
all
day
today,
the
more
they're
in
school,
the
better
they're
going
to
do
so,
I
think
that's
should
be
a
topic
moving
forward
and
making
sure
that
those
dollars
actually
do
help
and
being
able
to
evaluate
that.
So,
thank
you
very
much.
A
And
thank
you
for
that
comment
and
you
know,
as
an
educator,
I
couldn't
agree
more.
I
think
that
our
kids
also
need
the
consistency
of
it.
Right
now,
and
I
know
for
my
own
grandchildren,
they
couldn't
have
been
happier
to
go
to
summer
school,
so
they
were
and
they
were
thriving
in
it.
They
were
learning
a
lot.
They
were
doing.
You
know
not
just
reading
but
science,
lessons
and
outdoor
activities.
So
thank
you
assemblywoman.
I
I
agree.
A
Thank
you
all
right
and
with
that
any
additional
comments,
questions
from
anyone,
let's
go
to
broadcasting
and
see
if
we
have
any
public
comment
to
participate.
C
I'm
just
calling
to
tell
you
first
off
that
when
I
started
this
meeting
I
could
not
get
the
agenda
up.
I
could
not
find
out
where
to
call
I
when
I
finally
got
through
you,
have
given
it
some
time
to
get
for
people
to
speak
and
by
the
time
I
got
through
the
broadcaster
said
that
there
was
nobody
on,
but
I
just
gotten
through.
That
is
a
big
mistake.
I'm
going
to
investigate
why
that
was.
C
I
even
have
evidence
that
it
wasn't
up
and
take
further
action
as
well
as
I
just
wanted
to
say.
You
all
laugh
and
give
each
other
kudos
and
high
fives
and
everything
for
what
you're
doing
and
you're
failing
our
kids.
Our
kids
are
committing
suicide.
C
Our
children
are
not
mentally
well
you're,
imprisoning
them
with
masks
that
are
scientifically
proven
not
to
work.
In
fact,
when
you
go
in
the
community,
the
covet
is
still
spreading
and
that
is
and
we're
all
masked.
So
why
is
that
failure
failure
failure?
This
is
all
about
money.
It's
all
a
scam.
You
are
all
going
to
be
held
accountable.
C
C
You
do
not
care
about
our
children
and
our
families
and
our
schools,
because
if
you
did
you'd
stop
the
nonsense,
and
yet
you've
proven
here
today
that
nothing
matters
more
to
you
than
money,
money,
money,
money,
kill,
kill,
kill
in
prison
in
prison
in
prison.
The
definition
of
insanity
is
everything
that
you
are
all
continuing
and
you
educated
elites
and
legislators
keep
allowing
it
unacceptable.
A
Okay,
thank
you
very
much
so
with
that.
I
would
just
want
to
once
again
thank
all
of
our
school
district
people
that
have
joined
us
today.
I
appreciate
your
time,
your
expertise,
all
the
information
you've
given
us.
We
have
such
a
variety
of
locations
within
our
state
and
I
think
it's
important
to
hear
all
this
information.
A
So
thank
you
very
much.
You
will
be
alerted
when
the
next
meeting
will
be.
I
do
not
believe
we
will
be
having
one
until
april,
but
stay
tuned.
If
that
changes
we'll
let
you
know
inappropriate
time
so
that
you
can
calendar,
and
with
that
I
will
ask
for
any
additional
comments
from
the
committee
and
seeing
none.
