Public Input Pursuant to Board Policy #1550 Public Participation in Board Meetings Public Input shall be held to a maximum of 1 hour and will provide an opportunity for any Board Member, administrator, staff member, student, or patron to raise issues of interest. The Board will receive such input without comment, except to ask germane questions of those speaking. Comments should be limited to three (3) minutes. The Board will take no action relative to any items during the meeting, but may direct the Superintendent to consider such an item at a subsequent meeting. Annie Laurie Boyter— 3984 Joshua Lane Ms. Porter explained her children attend Discovery Elementary. She feels that only moving 80 students out of the school due to overcrowding is not enough; with the possible growth in the neighborhood, the school will still remain overcrowded. She is willing to move her students out of Discovery to have them attend Ucon Elementary rather than for them to continue to attend a school that is overcrowded. Rachel Porter — 3537 Scarlett Circle Ms. Porter is concerned about the overcrowding at Discovery and the education of her children. She is also willing to move to another school to help ease the situation. IX. New Business A. Proposed Policy for 30-dav Review (first reading) - Marjean McConnell Chairman Bird invited Marjean McConnell to present policy for 30 day review. Ms. McConnell asked to leave policy 5400 Sick Leave on 30 day review for one more month to update the definitions on the policy. MOTION: Paul Jenkins made the motion to post the policies presented for 30 -day review. Chad Dance seconded. The vote was 5 in favor with 0 opposed and 0 abstentions. Motion was carried. 1. 5400 Sick Leave 2. 5412 Jury Duty B. Sale of Lots in Ridgeview Subdivision - John Pymm Chairman Bird invited John Pymm to discuss the sale of lots in the Ridgeview Subdivision. Mr. Pymm informed the Board of eight lots between the high school and the Ridgeview Subdivision that are owned by the district. He recommends for the district to develop these lots and put four of them up for sale at this time. Development would include water, sewer, power, a street and cul-de-sac. MOTION: Paul Jenkins made the motion to proceed with development and sale of four lots in the Ridgeview Subdivision. Chad Dance seconded. The votewas 5 in favorwith 0 opposed and 0 abstentions. Motion was carried. C. Discovery Elementary Boundary Proposal - Scott Woolstenhulme Chairman Bird invited Scott Woolstenhulme to present and discuss the proposed Discovery Elementary Boundary revision. Mr. Woolstenhulme stated from the survey results that patrons and staff do not want more trailers moved in or special programs moved out at Discovery; possibly moving open enrollment students back to their home schools; and moving students into other elementaries with open classrooms. The district does not want to move boundaries multiple times and to utilize any open classroom space will require bussing. Ucon, four miles north of Discovery, is not experiencing growth and as has open classroom space. The number of students relocated must be sufficient enough to allow for continual growth in the Discovery neighborhoods. Computer labs can be converted to classroom space. Title One can be functional in a traditional classroom with the help of paraprofessionals and aides which will allow more classrooms to be used for instruction. If any Discovery parents opt to go to Ucon, the district could bus the students there without cost to the parents. Any decision needs to be made before school is out for the summer. X. Old Business A. Proposed Boundary Guidelines Survey Review - Scott Woolstenhulme Chairman Bird invited Scott Woolstenhulme to review the recent survey on Boundary revisions. Mr. Woolstenhulme stated the survey covered three main areas: • Start and end times for the school day — Survey results state that both patrons and staff support current start and end times. Instructional timing is different for elementary students than it is for secondary students. This topic will need further discussion. • High school boundaries — Survey results show consistency between patrons and staff. One major concern is traffic flow; all traffic issues need to be presented to the Bonneville County commissioners. Other boundary concerns include poverty areas, children with disabilities, and transportation. • Growth in elementary schools — Overcrowding is the number one concern for patrons and staff that live in the areas most affected. Lunchtime, recess time, and parent traffic are difficult. Building a new elementary could overrule a new middle school, The public would need more information before deciding on moving the 6th graders to middle school. The current sized elementary buildings are most acceptable with patrons and staff. B. Hope SQuad Suicide Prevention Proqram Chairman Bird invited Dr, Shackett to review the Hope Squad Suicide Prevention Program. Dr. Shackett stated that this program has gone worldwide and would be good for our schools. The total cost for the program for all district schools would be approximately $40,000 for the first year and would decrease over the next two years. This will pay for curriculum, training, and stipends for extra duties for current counselors to be as advisors in the program. If our district qualifies for a grant to be part of an experimental study of the program at the high school level, all costs would be covered for three years; however, one of the high schools would be the control group in the study. It would be best to implement this program for all K-12 students. MOTION: Paul Jenkins made the motion to proceed with Hope Squad Suicide Prevention program for Bonneville Joint School District 93. Amy Landers seconded. The vote was 5 in favor with 0 opposed and 0 abstentions. Motion was carried. C. Proposed Grounds Keeper Position - John Pymm Chairman Bird invited John Pymm to explain the Grounds Keeper responsibilities. Due to the last year's early spring and hot summer, many of our school grounds have suffered greatly. This has been a current concern to administration and to the patrons in the district. Due to the passing of the supplemental levy, the district has created another full time grounds keeper position and can purchase additional needed equipment. MOTION: Greg Calder made the motion to proceed with the new Grounds Keeper position as proposed. Chad Dance seconded. The vote was 5 in favor with 0 opposed and 0 abstentions. Motion was carried. D. Proposed Policv for Final Adoption (second readina) - Marjean McConnell Chairman Bird invited Marjean McConnell to present policy for final adoption. MOTION: Greg Calder made the motion to approve the policies presented for final adoption. Amy Landers seconded. The vote was 5 in favor with 0 opposed and 0 abstentions. Motion was carried. 1. 2428 Parental Rights 2. 2750 Academic Honors 3. 3000 Entrance Age 4. 3002 Birth Certificate 5. 3004 Immunization Requirements 6. 4112 Uniform Grievance 7. 5465 Workers' Compensation Benefits 8. 5660 Shared -Time Teaching Positions 9. 9215 Acquisition Disposal and Exchange of School Property XI.

Report on the State of the District - Karen Judy, Transportation Manager Chairman Bird invited Karen Judy to present the state of the District report. Mrs. Judy is privileged to work with the most amazing and dedicated administration and employees in the district, namely those who drive busses! This winter has been challenging! and now summer road construction projects have started. School busses travel about 650,000 miles a year over 60 routes. Mrs. Judy pleaded for the need bus drivers; bus drivers require a clean driving record, background check, and a CDL license, Training is required and work scheduling can be flexible. Chairman Bird expressed his appreciation to Karen Judy for her dedicated service to Bonneville Joint School District 93. She will be retiring this year. C.
