General November 3rd 1:20 okay so I will take this conversation to the board obviously this is on the emergency meeting agenda as well there was no action taken at that time so we go to the board and Donnie texted me that he will abstain from this Donnie early and contribute to the conversation if you would like the board for any conversation concerning Play Questions anybody Reserve by the fact that the election voting or the elections not having the electronic with would hinder thee or change the boat or does that change anybody's mind everybody it appears to be I don't want to reasons that Donnie abstained in and that we talked about an emergency meeting I don't want to give forth an opinion either way to get to a voting end the mini and Donna you can jump in here I don't think it changes very much whether it's in from one month to the other is everybody as long as it's across-the-board for everybody so I will say I'm having watch the news that Johnson fraud do that the outcome what was forced by mail and they were trying to remove it there safe. Let me know if we are required to provide an electronic machine set a requirement we're unable to do that so that kind of changed it the election will stay the same part of the order of the district are back in town at the point of the filing for the May 2nd in 2002 will remain the election date so everything stays just like it is but moved to November does anybody have a different opinion from Erica play old red we would need action if everybody's of that opinion or or enough of that opinion to make it what's that Anthony Daniel USA sent to no no I already said what I said Anthony was talking Anthony has home how many must be on a 305 V8 does it have to go all the way out to November I mean since it's going to be a special deal Becky do you have any inside of that I think it goes to the next election date as well what I would do does it have to go all the way out to November everything that I say from the governor's I haven't heard Ohio's dlnet call when can I know some of the districts in San Antonio are going jerk about having a special day so we could go ahead and the doctor's order but then looking point navigate me to having a Becky Jackson also that that's what they state is recommending the secretary of state is recommending out who runs the elections when I walk to my workout hello are cuz I miss coming this is Dawn I make a motion to adopt by the order under the authority of the Texas governor's proclamation to found the May 2nd 2020 general election to November 3rd 2020 second thought the movie second are there any other comments the board questions from the board okay it's been booty II all the favor say aye I believe the most carries 606 Downey St go back to the agenda here I told her the only acting out until then we're just moved to the reports and reports would be the communication items from the business manager and the superintendent okay Jennifer Johnson you can do your report the first one is the same price Mason on the bank run nothing notebook Monday summary board report you have your copy that can hold up me and that. the next one is the summary report and the only notable testable tools I believe we received Our Stars reimbursement are big settle upset so are federal revenues and safe otherwise nothing bored Jennifer this is Dawn I was just wondering expenses have drastically dropped do you have any idea how much we've been saving each month or not yet I'm not together we are still paying salary so ask the big guy at this time of year Borg guy Transportation fuel so like I wasn't sure how long we were going to be out covid 19 so white any extra mr. zwicky and I were talking today about the mileage we have to do those are all things that will be able to child nutrition information for you next month because obviously are the hours so that is something that that's on Tagged as well as the salary since you're not all of that stuff is losing a friend will realize some savings that I don't know Yorkie significant because I do not have a text selection support I just got that order from her today so I will email that out to you all tomorrow are there any I don't have any no thank you okay on my report we don't have an enrollment update we have not had any student withdrawal nor have we had if you want to come in to enroll so we're not the word stagnant of where we left off at the end of the last it would have been February or February enrollment things are going to be under a different Paradigm of instruction and I know the principles and I'll have them jumpy and I dunno car from here make adjustments to the amount of work you don't have an online or packet format they were trying to do ever what they were doing in the classroom remotely and now 21 days into it we all realize that's not the way it's going to work so call if you want to talk a little bit about I know you had to stop basically what we've decided we've been doing packets weekly and kind of just the whole situation of trying to practice what we preach kind of thing we have decided next Monday will be our last day to put packets together but that packet will include work until the end of the year we realize that we haven't officially said that but we're planning down that road just so that we can tell people to stay home stay safe cancel every Monday so the teachers are putting together packets for the next 5 weeks worth of work but I'll go home on Monday clearly defined as to what being expected they are going to most of them are doing so basically the kids will have a paper that has like 9 or 12 to aces of cities that they can do in the requiring like 3 or 4 weeks depending on the situation quite a bit trying to see what they would have done had they been in school so we know the teachers found out that was way too much work on their end of the parents were like so we kind of met in the middle we haven't dropped everything but we certainly had found the happy ground I think it seems like everybody's in a good spice so hopefully this will work we're going to take pictures then email and send through remind and and text messages to get back to the weekend cuz I think we're in a good place you're on the I want to talk about having if you want instructional leopard seal feeding across-the-board at with the amount of work done. create the feedback that was given to me and the principal for what we could make the adjustments the commissioner is only having calls with superintendents now twice a week we were having them play the week now starting this week twice a week care now okay move on so we're having twice a week calls I'm moderately concerned about what the new door for how far out is it for me to go because it showed which ETA has rolled out summer work a platform for summer home instruction and then in 2 weeks they should have all home homework platform developed so I hope that's not where we're headed to heaven age of the fall but it's getting prepared for that I wish I'll get with Jennifer we will be applying for the FEMA reimbursement with just the federal one that was pushed through Congress and see what we can get on that we are not pay so we're not looking at it Ollie's Amelia if we're having to do more instructional life than what we already the commissioner is making sure that everyone is keeping good loss of a teen nights of talking with students with parents communication back and forth as that's going to help determine attendance Herman when we resume our normal wait until we're back so I will think that I can end we could apply for a waiver to the teacher appraisal system but his principles everyone is far enough along and has data so it's moving along senior answer himself Nicole Jew and I believe Shawn Nelson because she's so that they could have a discussion about and what to do if at least until the end of April to make a decision whether to move graduation rule I certainly would I believe all of us are we going to do for the week of May 4th but if it's their best if you can hold off any questions raps that you want to share those principles or me about mainly action and this is Erica I have one question are all over needs now pass fail or are teachers still number grade they're pass-fail I don't think Mr deburr is on here I believe the dual-credit they're still having to have numerical grades but the service center is having a hold off on doing anything in Gradebook because they're trying to rewrite the program The Gray book program to a, is happening now across the sky this is Heidi I have a question do they feel like it might like maybe commissioner might want to school the school year like in other states they have actually like basically excused himself early you know instead of tender original dismissal days were at least as the statement to doing anything like that he has not at all haughty I will accept tomorrow at 3 at everyone is like us you know we were into now what would be getting ready for the big glass when you're doing it with you since that's not going to happen he is very open to listen to all kinds of protection and I was just hoping that that would be something they would be considering you know under the circumstances just so you know I know trying to keep the kids to help but in the same regard you know yeah I just was wondering if that was something on the side I will let the board know okay that's all I have okay so that concludes the all the communication items on the agenda all the action items on the agenda and I will just leave us with clothes so at this time 7:31 we will adjourn to go to the post office in forest for two reasons discuss appointment employment at will employee that's number one number two recommendation for teachers Casper Smart and other contractor employee renewal action which there should be considering contract then we will come back to open session and we will vote on that boat
