SUPERINTENDENT’S REPORT

Goal Committee Updates:

 

Dr. Joan Fleming reported that the Communications Committee is a very active committee.  She noted that the perception of education throughout the state is not very good and that when people are asked to grade the schools the results are as follows:  Statewide 25% grade schools A or B; locally 51% grade schools A or B; and when it comes to the schools their children attend 75% grade them A or B.  She noted that several state organizations have pooled together and hired a PR firm to promote schools within Arizona.  She noted that ASBA had donated $80,000 towards this effort.  She reported that some of the things the Communications Committee is working on include sending out tax credit donation forms with the water bills, completing the signage project at all sites, using different staff people on the radio spots, spotlighting more programs and employees in Let’s Talk, continuing to build and maintain the PUSD website (which receives over 1,000 hits per day), do an article for staff and the community regarding all that can be found on the website, utilizing Channel 13 more for TV coverage, develop a TV program similar to the City of Prescott’s in order to update the community on the progress of bond, APS and Board projects, make people aware of the link on the website to sign up for PUSD e-news, get more community members in the schools and more students out in the community, and having student council or other student groups give tours of their schools for prospective students and their parents.  She noted that the next meeting will be held this Thursday at 9:00 a.m. in Conference Room A at the District Office.  She noted that the committee has invited a PTA member to attend and all parents and staff are welcome to attend and work with the committee.

 

Mr. Joe Howard reported on the accomplishments of the Character Counts Committee in 2004-05, which include:  representation by every site in PUSD, recommended that each school sponsor a Character Counts in-service during 2005-06, recommended that each school hold a Character Counts related assembly that involves parents, created and distributed a document called “Tips for Character Counts! Implementation” for schools, recommended that sites create Character Counts libraries and resource centers, created a Character Counts website link on the district website, provided a link on the City of Prescott’s website called “Character Education in PUSD” which includes five links for further research, published an article about Character Counts in the city newsletter and plans for more in the future, having the Mayor declare a city proclamation to Character Counts in May – declaring that the city will recognize a pillar of the month consistent with PUSD’s, and a district-wide contest was held for a Character Counts slogan with the winner being “Character – count me in!” by Prescott Mile High Middle School student Skylar Jackson.  He noted that the goals for 2005-2006 include: securing funding and creation of a character education banner to fly across Gurley, implementing further “Victory with Honors” programs for athletes, parents and coaches, reviewing district-wide bullying policy and recommending possible revisions for consistency, implementing a week-long anti-bullying campaign throughout the district, and continuing to spread the character education message through websites, possible bumper stickers, assemblies and classrooms.  He noted that October 17th is National Character Education Week and that there would be lots of activities taking place within the district.

 

Mr. Bill Munson reported on the progress of the Attendance and Tardy Committee.  He noted that their goal is to develop effective procedures to improve attendance and decrease tardiness.  He reported that the committee has representation from each school and has met once this year.  He noted that the committee has examined the current procedures for addressing attendance and tardiness problems and discovered that the district is very inconsistent, that there is a lack of knowledge about the law and how the legal system can help, and that not much is being done for incentives for good attendance and punctuality.  He noted that the middle schools and high school were ahead of the elementary schools in this respect.  He noted that the committee will try to develop a standardized set of procedures and forms for schools at each level (elementary and secondary) for informing parents about attendance or tardiness issues and a standard set of procedures for involving outside agencies.  He added that the committee would also be looking at the possibility of district-wide incentives at each level for encouraging good attendance and punctuality.

 

Ms. Nancy Martinez reported on the progress of the Growth Committee, noting that the committee was still looking for a parent representative.  She reported that the committee has met two times so far and that the next meeting was scheduled for October 20th at 10:30 a.m. at Child Study Services.  She noted that the committee is looking to develop a short-term goal list, along with a five and ten year growth plan and that they are in the beginning stages of talking with Prescott Economic Growth personnel to get a better idea of what the growth will look like in five to ten years to help with the long-range plans.  She reported that the committee has discussed whether the district needs to build another elementary school, new high school and making all of the present elementary schools four sections, and with the addition of the ELOB magnet school, is this the new high school?  She noted that they had also discussed whether the district needs two high schools, whether the present high school could be turned into a middle school, whether one of the high schools would be a vocational school, if the present high school becomes a middle school – would there be room to move the district office to the high school and the possibility of a trade with the county for their administrative office on Fair Street once they build their new building at Pioneer Park in order to house all of our district administration at one site rather than being spread around the district.  She noted that currently the district is seeing growth at the pre-school and kindergarten levels, that the committee has agreed not to piece-meal to fix the district’s growth, and discussed what other resources are available for the district to tap into to make these projects happen.  She noted that having the correct data was key to making the right decisions.

 

Mr. Steve Campbell asked if the committee could direct the administration to collect growth data for the committee, which would include growth patterns within the community, where the most growth will take place in the next five years, what type of families will be moving to the district – families with children or retirees.  He noted that the committee is looking for a way to collect that data in order to understand what schools would service the growth areas. 

 

President Newton suggested starting with the City of Prescott and that the district is interested in growth and ages.

 

Mr. Kapp responded that we could start with the City of Prescott and the Department of Economic Growth.

 

Mrs. Barbara Van Fossen reported on the progress of the Nutrition and Fitness Committee.  She reported that they had held their first meeting on August 25th and discussed the overview of the meal program along with meal requirements and guidelines, the Wellness Policy guidelines from ASBA that should be coming out in the spring, the salad bars at the middle schools and parents not being aware of items available and the Team Nutrition Grant at Prescott Mile High Middle School, the changes made to the snack bar at that site and new items that had been added.  She noted that Matt McCarty, a School Health & Nutrition Program Specialist from ADE was at PMHMS on September 26th for his first review with most items being in compliance.  She added that he would be doing another nutritional analysis of items being sold in the snack bar and that to increase sales in the snack bar he had suggested having more discussion on nutrition in the classrooms and that food service should do some marketing of new items.  She reviewed the Nutrition Standards required for items sold in the snack bar, which include:  300 calories or less, 30% or less of total calories from fat (excluding nuts and seeds), 10% or less of total calories from saturated fat plus trans fat added together, 35% or less of weight from sugars (excluding fruit, vegetables, and dairy), 1 or more grams of fiber, only 100% juice may be sold and limited to no more than 12 ounces, and sports drinks (Gatorade/Powerade) being limited to no more than 12 ounces.  She reported what was being done at PMHMS to improve nutrition, which includes:  no deep frying – all items are oven baked, more fruit and vegetable trays, 100% juices, using low fat cheese in menu items, and using whole wheat bread and pizza crust.  She noted that the committee is working with the PTA and Student Council on new items for bake sales, fitness and marketing.  She announced that the next meeting would be held on October 20th.

 

Mrs. Mary Anne Kapp and Ms. Linda Ryan reported on the progress of the Academic Achievement and Professional Development Committee of which all principals and directors are members.

SUPERINTENDENT’S REPORT

Mr. Kapp noted that he would have the committees update the Board again in January.  He distributed the Calendar of Events for October and noted that next week would be Fall Break, there is no school, and that the district office staff would be working four 10-hour days with Friday off.  He added that many staff members would be taking annual leave during that week.  He pointed out that there are lots of activities taking place in October within our district.

 

Mr. Steve Campbell asked, during Fall Break will there be any remediation programs offered?  Mr. Kapp responded, this year we are not doing that because we are trying a different approach by having more on-going, after-school homework clubs, etc. that will continue throughout the year.  He added that the individual schools are implementing their own programs and that the district would be offering the Kids & Co. childcare during the break.  He noted that some schools would not be implementing their after-school homework clubs until second semester due to transportation problems.  He noted that when the district gets their new bus fleet there will be more buses that will help to solve that problem.  He added that the problem then will be to add more bus drivers, which the district administration may be asking the Board to do in the future.

 

Dr. Joan Fleming reported that the district had hosted a wonderful meeting with the Governor last Tuesday at Abia Judd and commended Bill Munson and Tina Corbett for their work and noted that almost 200 people had shown up.

 

Mr. Kapp distributed the September 30 enrollment report and noted that most growth that is taking place at the elementary level is in kindergarten, that the growth now taking place in the middle schools is a good sign since their growth has been flat over the last couple of years and that the high school enrollment was up by 97students.  He reported that the elementary enrollment is up by 27 students (1.2%), the middle schools 35 students (2.8%), and the high school 97 students (5.3%), for a total of 177 students (3.3%).  He noted that this was right on target and that the district would continue to monitor the trends.

 

Mr. Kapp thanked Dr. Joan Fleming and Mr. Steve Campbell for attending a parent meeting at Skyview Charter School.  He noted that they had assisted in answering questions from parents regarding the possible merger of Skyview with PUSD.  He reported that it had been a great meeting and that the momentum is very positive.  He noted that there would be more parent meetings with Skyview in the future and that the possibility of a merger was looking very good.

 

He reported that 25 participants had spent last Thursday, Friday and Saturday at Mingus Springs Camp doing an intensive ELOB training.  He thanked Totsy McCraley and her two teachers, Joe Howard and his four teachers, Linda Ryan, Mary Anne Kapp and John Hurley (Director of Skyview Charter School) and his eight teachers and board members, along with three Prescott College teachers for attending the training.  He said that it was a very unique training with PHS, PMHMS, Skyview and Prescott College being represented.  He reported that half of the cost for our school personnel was paid for by the Gates Foundation funds.

 

Mr. Kapp asked the principals to report on the different fundraising projects in the schools as a result of Hurricane Katrina.

 

Mr. Joe Howard reported that three clubs at PMHMS had joined together to sponsor a Carnival Fair on the field on Saturday, October 22nd.  He added that these clubs made their fundraising efforts local by adopting six families that had relocated to Prescott and that all proceeds from this project would go to the families.

 

Mr. Ed Yeager reported that WTS had adopted a school in Louisiana and were sending 17 boxes (442 lbs) of school supplies and other needed items and that Pam Percival was the lead person on this project.

 

Susan Clark reported that the students at MV had started a penny collection and that some students had donated their tooth fairy money and birthday money to the collection, and by getting the staff and parents involved, they were able to send $2,550 to the American Red Cross.

 

Dr. Chris Reynolds reported that Dorrean Walker had come up with the idea for doing a job outreach for those displaced from Hurricane Katrina.  He then read a letter from Governor Napolitano thanking the district for their efforts.

 

Mr. Bill Munson reported that fundraising efforts at Abia Judd had raised just under $3,000, which Compass Bank was going to match for Katrina victims.  He added that they had filled two truck loads of blankets and supplies, along with $16,000 in checks for the tsunami relief.

 

Mr. Mike Harlan reported that Granite Mountain students and staff started small with a carwash that raised about $150, all profits from a school dance raised about $1300, and a couple of teachers raised about $100 showing 20 minute movie clips.  He noted that Augie’s Restaurant in Prescott Valley was donating food and catering a New Orleans Feast with students from NHS and Student Council serving the meals on Thursday, October 6th from 5:00 – 7:00 p.m. in the MPR.  He reported that 100% of the profit from this project would go towards Katrina relief and that 100 people had signed up so far.  He noted that the students encouraged their parents to drop off checks and that the staff had been involved as well.

 

Mr. Frank Lawhead reported that Lincoln had raised about $345, which Albertson’s was going to match, and that they were continuing to collect funds.

 

Mr. Brian Moore reported that Taylor Hicks is still collecting coins and that he would announce the amount at the next Board meeting.

 

Mrs. Totsy McCraley reported that the PHS Student Council and Choir programs have been collecting materials and supplies which will be sent to Katrina victims and several teachers are doing penny collections in their classrooms.  She reported that they had held a blood drive today in order to replenish the supply here in Arizona since a lot of our supply was sent to Louisiana.  She noted that people had donated 11 boxes of blood. 

 

Mrs. Dee Navarro stated how very proud she was of all our schools in the district.

 

President Newton stated that he was very proud also, but not surprised. 

 

Mr. Tom Staley stated that he concurred and that it served as a great learning moment.

 

Mr. Kapp informed the Board that Joseph, our cameraman, will be having some surgery and will be out through late November or early December.

          Mrs. Dee Navarro moved that the Governing Board approve the 2004-2005 Annual Financial Report.  Dr. Joan Fleming seconded the motion.

 

          Dr. Joan Fleming voted aye, Mrs. Dee Navarro voted aye, Mr. Tom Staley voted aye, Mr. Steve Campbell voted aye, and President Newton voted aye.  The motion carried 5-0.

 

CONSIDER APPROVING THE HIRING OF TWO 4-HOUR, TWO 5-HOUR AND ONE 6-HOUR INSTRUCTIONAL ASSISTANTS TO ASSIST IN KINDERGARTEN CLASSES FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE 2005-2006 SCHOOL YEAR, UTILIZING 2005-06 GROWTH MONIES

Mr. Kapp distributed copies of updated kindergarten counts and reviewed the trends over a three-year period noting that one of the key figures was last year’s count of 326 and this year’s count of 370.  He stated that since there has been an increase of 44 students in the past year the administration is asking the Board for some assistance at this level, which is the same scenario used with 1st grade in the past.  He noted that the administration was not recommending adding another section in the middle of the current year, but to add aides to assist the teachers with the higher than usual numbers of students.  He noted that they were suggesting adding 4-hour aides at Lincoln and Washington, 5-hour aides at Miller Valley and Taylor Hicks, and a 6-hour aide at Abia Judd.  He added that the approach the principals are supporting is the least disruptive approach in helping with these ratios.  He went on to say that the district likes to have the numbers at the kindergarten level at 24 or lower, that there is no state law, and that the lowest number possible is best.  He stated that by approving this request it would give the teacher some help and reduce the adult student ratio, with the cost being about $31,000.  He noted that the funding for next year could go into a 1st grade position, which would probably be added to Miller Valley. 

 

Mr. Tom Staley stated that regarding enrollment numbers, the growth is at kindergarten, but also at the elementary level in general.  He asked if there was a need to look at this same solution for other grade levels and at other schools?  Mr. Kapp responded that at this time kindergarten is the only level that is above the recommended class size, but that the administration would continue to monitor the other levels very closely.

 

Mr. Campbell asked, where would the money come from?  Mrs. Raskin responded, from 2005-06 growth money, which would be an appropriate use for those funds.

 

Mr. Campbell noted that the district estimated our growth at 2%, but it appears to be higher.  Mrs. Raskin responded, we conservatively estimated 2%, which equates to about $500,000 in growth money, but the actual growth will probably be closer to 3%.  She also noted that the district had already spent approximately $226,000 of growth money for this year.

 

Mr. Staley asked what type of formula was used to arrive at the aides needed for each school?  Mr. Kapp responded that the ratio was based on the number of sections at each school.  Mr. Staley suggested adding 6-hour aides at each school and asked what the cost of doing that would be. Mr. Kapp responded that it would cost approximately $15,000 for each hour added.

 

CONSIDER APPROVING A CHANGE IN POSITION TITLE FROM BUSINESS MANAGER TO CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER AND PLACEMENT OF THE POSITION ON AN APPROPRIATE SALARY SCHEDULE

Mr. Steve Campbell stated that he would like to recommend that the Board Briefing be re-posted with the section under relevant data blank.

 

Mr. Staley asked, how many directors do we have?  Dr. Reynolds responded, about 8.  Mr. Staley asked, since part of the justification for this request is due to growth, should we be looking at the other directors?  President Newton responded, that could be studied at a future meeting.

 

Dr. Joan Fleming noted that it was also due to the related responsibilities and mandates from state and federal law.

 

President Newton added, and an increase in the supervisory capacity.

 

CONSIDER REVIEWING AND ADOPTING POLICY SERVICES ADVISORY, VOLUME 18, NUMBER 4, FOR SEPTEMBER 2005, REGARDING POLICY ADVISORY NUMBER 260

Mr. Kapp reported that the district did adopt policies regarding homeless students a couple of years ago and that the ADE has directed ASBA to add this language to strengthen the policy and put it in compliance with ADE.

 

Mr. Staley noted that when we talked about allowing homeless students to enroll, there was the issue of vaccinations.  Mr. Kapp responded that we do get records from some of the families, but for those families who cannot produce records, the school nurses work with these families by directing them to free or reduced clinics.

 

CONSIDER APPROVAL OF THE CONSENT AGENDA:

Mr. Tom Staley suggested that the district do exit interviews with employees through a written form, and not by the supervisor of the employee, in order to gain insight on the district’s strengths and weaknesses.

 

Mr. Kapp asked Board members to check their calendars to see if the Voting Session in November could be changed from November 8 to November 7.

 

CONSIDER THE APPROVAL OF CERTIFIED AND CLASSIFIED PERSONNEL ACTIONS AS REQUESTED

 

CONSIDER ACCEPTING THE DONATIONS AS PRESENTED

 

CONSIDER RATIFYING THE VOUCHERS AS PRESENTED

 

CONSIDER THE APPROVAL OF THE AUXILIARY OPERATIONS AND STUDENT ACTIVITIES FUND STATEMENT OF RECEIPTS AND DISBURSEMENTS FOR THE MONTH OF AUGUST 2005

 

CONSIDER THE REVIEW AND APPROVAL OF PREVIOUS MINUTES FROM THE GOVERNING BOARD EXECUTIVE AND STUDY SESSION OF SEPTEMBER 6, 2005, THE VOTING SESSION OF SEPTEMBER 13, 2005, AND THE EXECUTIVE SESSION OF SEPTEMBER 21, 2005

 

ADJOURNMENT

Hearing no objection, President Newton adjourned the meeting at 7:11 p.m.
