Discussion:   (See Exhibit #1) Boston advised, next on the agenda item is the approval of the agenda. Hamby asked, madam chair, before we do that may I make a motion that we amend the agenda to add the Baby Birds for discussion and vote? Boston asked, is that a motion? Hamby replied, yes that is a motion. Boston asked, so you're making a motion to approve the agenda with the addition of Baby Birds for discussion and vote. Boston replied, we need a second on that. The motion is that we approve the agenda with the addition of adding Baby Birds for discussion and vote. Stull replied, second. Boston continued, Mrs, Stull has seconded that motion. Any discussion? King asked, can we vote even though it's not on the agenda with a star? We're just now adding it. Boston replied, approval of the agenda is right besides number five. King replied, yeah, so we're adding an item that wasn't here before on there, to vote on. Hamby replied, we can amend the agenda for a discussion and vote item, yes. King replied, okay, but you said for discussion and vote. So is it discussion or vote? Hamby replied, we'll put it as vote and then. Boston replied, well, once there's a motion, there will be discussion. Stull asked, can we vote on it, on the motion? Boston replied, that's what her, we're going to have. Yes, okay there's no discussion. A Roll Call Vote was taken. Boston replied, motion carries. So that's added to the agenda and the agenda has been approved.  (Baby Birds discussion was discussed in detail under #10 AP and Above Salary discussion.)

Discussion: 
 (See Exhibit #2) Boston replied, next on the agenda is the Maintenance Budget. I had this added as an item. Everything that you see on here, is included in the budget. So I just wanted to make sure everybody knew kind of what this incorporated. Just in case you were not here. You didn't have a chance to review it. So this is just a FYI and are there any questions regarding any of the maintenance projects that we have chosen? If there's not, then we'll move forward. Safdie asked, I got a question. Mr. Stepp, do you feel comfortable with the current maintenance budget as being considered for approval. Stepp replied, yes. We've considered this a lot and came up with this. So there was Mrs. Kington, Mrs. Bray and I. Safdie replied, and the, tell me how we're handling the fencing. Stepp replied, yeah. Y'all have voted to move that money to the maintenance line item this year. So what we talked about was y'all asked, we want you to meet with County Commission, board together. We had that meeting to discuss short term and long-term goals. So the fencing can be bid out and taken care of. So out of that if we feel that is the short term fix for right now. Stull asked, and that fencing is going around everything? Boston replied, the perimeter. Stepp continued, it can be the perimeter if we have that much money. We talked about starting out with the back. So that back end is fenced in where all the playgrounds are going to be. Where we talked about starting. Boston replied, we moved 433 is that correct? The most crucial item right now is Martin Elementary sewer. Stepp replied, correct. Boston continued, so those bids are just now coming back. Bray replied, not even bid. I'm getting quotes right now, so we can put our bid package together. Boston replied, okay. So we are getting quotes on that, that we estimated about 250. Bray replied, correct. Boston continued, the remainder of that was kind. Bray replied, we used of part of that for the Pine View roof. $168,000 of that we moved and then anything left we could use whatever you folks decide. Boston replied, should be about $182. Bray replied, somewhere in that. Boston replied, and I think the fencing was quoted at $195, something like that. I think I calculated up we were going to need about $14,000 to go ahead, if we fence. Bray replied, if they honor that quote, of course. That quote is. Stepp replied, two years old. Boston replied, two months old and I agree, but that money is kind of earmarked in maintenance. Bray replied, and it's in that line for that fence, but it's in this year's current budget. Bray replied, correct. Boston continued, not the projected. Stepp replied, 23-24. Boston continued, right.  Are there any more questions about the maintenance that we had, that we proposed? Hale replied, so we did earmark it and we are going to start on that project? Boston replied, it's in the maintenance line. Hale replied, yes ma'am. Boston continued, and so if we determine that is the short-term fix that we want, all we' have to do is vote at a board meeting to spend that money for the fencing. Safdie replied, or to get a bid. Boston replied, or to get a bid. Boston continued, and if we need additional funding, where would that money come from? We'd have to specify that, but I know that had been the main discussion is to move all that money over to fix. We moved $172 over for Pine View roof separately and this is the outcomes money? Bray replied, correct. Boston replied, which was about 603? Bray replied, 603, 605. Boston replied, something like that and then we moved the remainder of it over last board meeting into the maintenance line. So that's in the process. Safdie replied, so it's not like we haven't been doing anything. We we're working on it. Bray replied, were moving, we're sort of like those turtles you said, but yes we have been moving. Boston replied, if there's no further discussion, no more questions. Elizabeth did you or Mrs. Stout have any more questions regarding the maintenance budget? Stull and Stout replied, no. 

Discussion:   (See Exhibit #3) Boston replied, next is the Classified Salary Scale. We have to vote to approve that. I'll entertain a motion. Safdie replied, so moved. Hamby replied, second. Boston replied, so we have a first and we have a second. King asked, did we vote on the maintenance budget? Boston replied, it's included in the budget. The Budget Committee voted on that. I just wanted everybody to see exactly and make sure there were no further questions. That was not a voting item, necessarily. Hale replied, I have a question with this one. On this scale, this is for the non-certified. Do they get any kind of insurance package? Do we give them an insurance package? Bray replied, yes ma'am. We pay everyone single coverage 100%, but any dependence they have, they have to pay for that themselves. Hale replied, okay I thought we did, but I was just making sure. Bray replied, medical and dental. Boston replied, that was one of the draw cards for our bus drivers, is the medical insurance. So we have a first and second. Is there any discussion on the classified salary scale? No one responded. A Voice Vote was taken. Boston replied, motion carries. So classified has been approved.

Discussion:   (See Exhibit #4) Boston replied, next on the agenda is the Non-Certified Supervisor and Safe School Counselor Salary Scale and we have to approve this as well. I'll make a motion we approve. Hamby replied, second. Boston continued, we have a first and a second. Any discussion on this? No one responded. A Voice Vote was taken.  Boston replied, so the Non-Certified Supervisor and Safe School Counselor Salary Scales has been approved. Motion carries.

Discussion:   (See Exhibit #5) Boston advised, next on the agenda is the Licensed Instruction Personnel Certified Salary Scale below Assistant Principal and I'll entertain a motion that we approve that. Hamby replied, I'll make a motion we approve. Hale replied, second. Boston replied, okay so we've got a first and second. Any discussion on this one? No one responded. A Voice Vote was taken. Boston replied, motion carries.

Discussion:   (See Exhibit #6) Boston advised, next on the agenda is the Assistant Principal and Above Salary Scale. I'll need a motion to approve. Hamby replied, I make a motion we approve. Safdie replied, second. Boston replied, we have a first and second. Any discussion on this? No one responded. A Voice Vote was taken. Boston asked, how did you ladies vote, Mrs. Stull and Mrs. Stout? Stull and Stout responded. aye. Boston continued, so Mr, King was our no vote. Motion carries for the Licensed Instructional Personnel, Assistant Principal and above.

 (Baby Birds Discussion) Boston advised, next is the budget itself. Oh excuse me, where did you want to put Baby Birds? Hamby replied, we can talk about Baby Birds now if you'd like. Boston replied, okay before we start off the budget let's do that. Hamby continued, we had got the funding, the grant. Not the full funding, but there was an ISM Grant and Mrs. Boston you may have to help me with that. The ISM Grant doesn't have anything to do with Baby Birds. Hamby replied, not the ISM Grant. Boston replied, it's the TEIS. Hamby continued, the TEIS, sorry. To many acronyms there. We got the TEIS Grant funding and I think we were told that we could not supplement that, but we can. Cameron Sexton said the Department of Education said that we can supplement with local money to replace the TEIS Grant funding that previously existed to keep providing services. Stepp replied, yeah we met with TEIS and cleared all that. Hamby asked, so the program is going to continue? Stepp replied, you would have two different programs going on. You'd have the services for TEIS, that's what they pay for. If y'all want to open a daycare, then there would be a daycare, but we're going through the process of all the children being approved for 5 hours, four hours, three hours, whatever that is. So we're right in the middle of discussions with TEIS on what exactly is allowed, who's grandfather in, who's not. So there's a lot of discussions going on. Hamby replied, okay well, I just wanted it brought up, because one time we thought we could not help supplement that grant. Stepp continued, you would be funding a different type of program. So we'd have the TEIS services that TEIS provides depending on their numbers, and then we would basically be funding a daycare. Hamby replied, that would keep the 18-month-old and older is still in the program. Stepp replied, yeah. So the grant pays for one thing, and we're you're asking if we can pay for a daycare. The grant doesn't allow the daycare option anymore, daycare services and that's statewide. So we met with them for, I don't know, an hour or so. For a while, trying to figure out all the new ways that they're wanting things to be done. To figure out how many hours they can serve under the grant as compared to not under the grant. All that kind of stuff, so we're still working on that with them. Hamby replied, I just don't want to see any of these kids left out. Nichols replied, yeah they changed the rules. That's the biggest thing. It's not what we want, it's what they're going to let us do. So we'll have to come up with some serious money to run a daycare. If we want to keep going with the way it's going now. Safdie replied, but if we run daycare here, why don't we run daycare at the Homestead? Why don't we run daycare at all the other schools? We're not designed to do that, okay. Although it's a wonderful idea. Nichols replied, great idea. Safdie continued, but we're not designed. Nichols replied, and it's needed. Safdie continued, and I think yes it is needed. I think what we need to do is just give this a rest for right now and let the Director of Schools and the Program Director work this thing out with existing new rules that this organization has imposed on us and then, next year, if there's a consensus that the new board would like to start something like that, then they can work it out with the Director of Schools and staff. Boston replied, I have a question. Do we have contract services that come into that building and provide? Holton replied, so basically right now, kids come two days a week, two and a half hours, for two days. They can come 15 minutes early and stay 15 minutes late if they need OT or PT therapy, but if they can't get those services in that two and a half hours, it has to be outside of that two and a half hours, but the way that we are trying to set it up where they can continue to get that therapy at Baby Birds. When they come for whatever amount of time they're allotted. So we are working to try to continue that. Boston replied, my question was do we have someone from the outside or do we provide all of those services? Holton replied, TEIS pays for those services. Boston replied, who does the actual service? I mean who actually works with the child? Safdie asked, do we subcontract out? Holton replied, it's contracted out with Karen Henderson and Melanie Schultz. Stepp replied, it's a different person for each service usually. Holton replied, she doesn't contract with Cumberland County Schools anymore. She just contracts with TEIS. Boston asked, but they come into the building and work with these children. Is it 1 hour, 2 hours or whatever I want to say, their IEP, but it wouldn't be an IEP? Holton replied, I think it's probably from the way they made it sound 30 minutes. 30 minutes of Developmental OT or PT therapy. Boston asked, individually or can they do a group? Holton replied, they can do a group, but typically those therapies are done individually. Safdie replied, I've got another question. If the child is brought onto the Cumberland County School campus and they have an accident, whose insurance pays for it? Holton asked, while they're in therapy? Safdie replied, yeah. Holton replied, they're still in the TEIS teacher supervision. They're not taking out, those contracted services are background checked. All drug test of all of those things, but they are still in the supervision of our teachers during therapy TEIS. Safdie asked, then you say that so if they have an accident, then does state pay for the insurance or does a state, who handles the insurance? This was a problem we had many moons ago with the daycare, when starting a daycare. The issue was who is liable and what is the liability that we have for starting a a daycare center with the children? Now I think that in previous years the liability was too great and we opted not to provide daycare services, because of that and I guess I want to know what is, have the rules changed. I'm an old dinosaur, you know and. Stepp replied, I can find that out and get that to you on who exactly is liable. Holton replied, in the grant it says credentials professional liability insurance Cumberland County Schools will keep on file documentation of licensure or credentials as appropriate for each staff member's specialty area and copies that the grantee Cumberland County Schools will keep a copy of the insurance pertaining to professional liability. Safdie replied, that's professional liability and what about accidental? Holton replied, says liability of the state under the grant contract exceeds 900. Safdie replied, well that's a good question that needs to be answered or should be answered. Stepp replied, I can get an answer pretty quickly and get it to y'all today if I can. Safdie continued, so for instance, there's two questions or two components that I'm asking about. One is the liability we have with the existing program that's been funded by the state and the other is if we start a daycare option, which is separate from that, then who's liable? Stepp replied, well if we be paying that and funding that then the school system be liable for the daycare risk. Boston replied, yeah risk management. Stull asked, what hours are we looking at as far as the daycare option to have coverage after the services are provided. Boston asked, did you hear that question Mrs. Holton? Holton replied, so currently the TEIS Grant pays for two full-time employees, the teacher and the director and an assistant. So those people will be paid just like a teacher and an assistant for Cumberland County Schools. So their benefits and their pay, full-time pay will be. Boston replied, her question was what hours are we looking at? Holton replied, so we can offer 2 and a half hours of services per day, but the staff is paid for full-time hours. Stull replied, so the children would only be there for the 2 and a half hours a day like they currently are right now. It wouldn't exceed that time frame. Is that correct? Holton replied, that's for TEIS. Now the daycare, if you started a daycare, you could set whatever those hours that you want to be. Boston asked, what is it operating currently? As we speak, what hours are the kids there? Holton replied, 8:00 to 10:30. Boston continued, right now we currently have 2 and 1/2 hours. Holton replied, yes correct. Stepp replied, it's twice a week, so they alternate days, who comes which days, because you can only have eight kids per adult. Stull replied, I guess if that's what we're currently doing and that's what we're going to be doing. What exactly I guess would be changing or what would be adding? Boston asked, what would be changing? Holton replied, so we have proposed that and this is just a proposal, because it's an IFSP team decision, but we've proposed that we can run two days a week, two and a half hour sessions, 8 to 10:30. So if a kid needs two and a half hours they can come on Monday. If they need 5 hours, they can come on Monday and Tuesday. Then we'd set it up where on Wednesday and Thursday if a kid needs an hour and a half, they could come from 800 to 9:30. If they need 3 hours, they could come from 8 to 10:30 that day and the same on Thursday. So we've adjusted it where open 8 to 10:30 and we can serve whatever hours they tell us to serve. Stepp replied, so every child's needs are different. So that's why we have so many different time slots. That's why it's a complex setup that Mrs. Holton's doing a great job handling, but each child is different. So if you have one child that needs 2 and  a half hours and somebody else that only needs one, well that's 2 and a half hours where we can't pull in another kid cuz we're at eight. Does that make sense? So you got those numbers. You're changing throughout those days and hours, but we got to stick to that 8:1 ratio. We don't have a choice on that. Stull replied, so each child would just be allotted their number of hours for therapy. That's the portion changing. Stepp replied, correct. Stull continued, from what it currently is. They automatically get those two and a half hours, twice a week and if they don't need two and a half hours in that week, then they wouldn't be there both of those days. Stepp replied, correct. Holton replied, so TEIS has told us that kids should not automatically got two days, two and a half. It should have been more on an individual basis decision previously, but moving forward you know that decision will be made on the amount of hours, but the max they can have is 2 and a half hours per day. Stepp replied, and what they said when we spoke to them about that, if you stick to those hours then you can actually serve more children that way that have certain needs. So that's how they explained it to us. Boston replied, so we're looking at keeping the program open the 4 days that we consistently have. Hamby replied, okay that was one of my questions. Boston continued, you just won't have the kids there for more than two and a half hours or whatever hours they need. Holton replied, so for example, a kid might have come Monday and Tuesday 5 hours last year. This year the team might say you only need two and a half hours. So now instead of only serving one kid, 5 hours, I'll be able to serve two kids for two and a half hours each. So we're hoping to increase the number of kids that get to come to Baby Birds. Safdie replied, one of the questions that I think is important is how will the socialization process continue with these new hours? Holton replied, so we currently, in a classroom, we can have up to 15 kids right now and we had three classrooms. So there was approximately five kids in each room with a new schedule we're running right now there'll be two adults, with four children. So there will be four children together, two adults more than likely in the same room. Where this year, we've had three different rooms based on ages, but now we'll only be in one room, but there will be four kids together at any given time. Safdie replied, do you feel that's given the parameters of what the state is giving you, do you feel that is sufficient? Holton replied, I don't know that they would have got any more the other way, just because they would have got more different children on at recess, because all the classes went down to recess together, but the majority of their time they spent in their classrooms, which had a total of five kids. So that aspect doesn't change and they're really going to have higher adult ratio to children now. To be able to get more one on one for each child. Boston asked, how many children are in the program currently? Holton replied, currently we have 27. Safdie asked, do you anticipate a greater number of students participating next year? Holton replied, so what we have is we have some kids with extended option. They can choose to stay till they're five right now. So we do think some of the 27s stayed with Baby Birds so they could have services through the summer and then are planning to come to the school age program in August. Some families are not planning on that, so I think we're going to see a difference in some kids are going to go to a different program like the school age program. Some kids are going to stay at Baby Birds and then the kids that stay at Baby Birds, we going to try to get them as much services that they've had. Similar to what they've had in the past, but eventually our hope is that if we can serve every kid for two and a half hours instead of five we can double the number of kids that are getting that service, because right now we have kids on a waiting list that can't come, because we don't have a spot. Boston asked, so we do have a waiting list? Holton replied, they stopped enrollment when all of this started. Boston replied, and you really won't know what the program will actually look like until you get those evaluations. Holton replied, so I met with them, me, Mr. Stepp meet with them yesterday and they said okay what hours are you going to be open? I said I'm going to be open Monday through Thursday 2 and a half hours each day. They said, well how many kids do you want? I said I will serve whatever kids you give me. Whatever amount of time you tell me, 5 hours if you tell me three, if you tell me one. She said other places are saying we're only serving kids an hour and a half. We are leaving it up to whatever that IFSP team decides that is best for that child. Then that's what we're going to do. Stull asked, so will all of this then be decided when the new session rolls over in July? Holton replied, so we had a meeting yesterday, today we have another meeting tomorrow with the service providers and different staff with TEIS and the goal would be that all families would meet as with an IFSP team meeting in the month of June. So the decisions are made to start July 1. Boston asked, are you comfortable with this transition? Holton replied, I think that I'm doing the best with the parameters I'm given. I think that I still am trying to give every kid that can get the services get services. I think that you know we're doing the best we can and I think that we are continuing to keep the validity of the program that we have now. We want it to be good services and I think that we are continuing to do that even with the number of parameters that we've been given. Boston replied, if you find after those evaluations are given to you and you have more, we would welcome you to come back before this board if we can help. Hamby replied, so madam chair, with the discussion I don't think we need a vote. Sounds like they. Boston replied, I think you've got it well in hand. Hamby continued, I will withdraw that. Boston replied, thank you. Thank you for the information that was my goal. I wanted information, because I really hadn't heard exactly what was going on. So thank you. Safdie replied, thank you for raising that question.

Discussion:  (See Exhibit #7) Boston replied, next on the agenda is the actual budget. Has everyone had the opportunity to review this budget in depth and with all your heart and soul? Hamby replied, I think our eyes are crossing, because the numbers. Boston continued, I think we've talked it to death. Does anybody have a question? Do we want, I think Mrs. Bray has been practicing to go through this yet again, haven't you? Bray replied, yes. Boston replied, is that necessary or do we have specific questions? Safdie replied, I guess the question that I have is it necessary for the public? To have our meetings, our budget meetings in the past been sufficient enough to inform the public of what we were doing? Boston replied, I've received several communications that now that we are videoing all of our committee meetings. That several people have watched this budget, have looked at it. Yes sir. Stull replied, I've had several comments to that as well, that they have been watching the budget meetings. Boston continued, so I think our public has been, those that are interested have been well informed. Hamby replied, yes and I've heard the same comments, but now that we are videoing. Boston replied, we can do this one of two ways and I'm open either way. This budget came out of a Budget Committee and I think most of us were in attendance for the majority of those. I think we had good attendance on those. We can ask specific questions or we can have Mrs. Bray go through it and hit the highlights and I'll do it either way you want to do that. Nichols replied, she wouldn't have to go through it again. She's gone through it so many times. Hamby replied, exactly. I think if someone's got a specific question, go ahead and ask that specific question, but I think Mrs. Bray has went over and like we said, the public has been very informed. Anybody can go online and print it out. Boston replied, Mrs. Bray does not want to give me the opportunity to start asking question. She does not. Stout replied, the only thing that I was going to ask is if she could just hit on the sheets that just had the most recent changes from the last Budget Committee Meeting. Bray replied, I think on the AP and Above Salaries. So that's going to hit your principal page and then your supervisor pages. All those salary lines for the certified supervisors. Boston replied, and on page 28, Kim you've still got your box truck on there. Bray replied, I took it out of the total. I saw that, but I've taken it off my copy now. Boston replied, that's the only thing I saw. Bray replied, and then the aviation. We took the four scholarships, knocked that down to two and that's the only changes that I made. Safdie asked, the box truck, what line is that? Bray replied, on the very last page on capital outlay. Boston replied, line 799. and that is just your school and department needs that we give out each year. Go to page 28. Stout replied, from what I see, the dollar amount changed, but the comment just hadn't been removed. Boston replied, that is correct. Bray replied, that's on me. Boston replied, that is correct. Safdie replied, so we crossed out the one box truck. Boston replied, that's it. I mean I just saw that, because I didn't want it going out. Bray replied, well I caught it today just before I walked in. Boston replied, I did to. Those are the only changes that have been made since our last meeting.  Any other questions? Stout replied, yeah quick question. I know on page 28 under the building improvements line 707, we had the balance on CCHS and then we listed Homestead in the comments there and we had that at zero. What was the intent with that? Are we going to if that full balance doesn't go to CCHS, it stays there in that line for Homestead or were we going to talk a little bit about funding that line for Homestead? Boston replied, I think at this point we really don't know what we're funding. The money for the fencing is in the current year's budget and I think that is as far as we have gotten on that. We wanted that Homestead to be there and if at a later date, we want to move some money into that Homestead line, if we have outcomes money that come in, we can always put it there. We can put it there as the need arises. That was my thought. I don't think we were specifically funding anything since the fencing was in the current budget. Stout replied, okay so once we land on the amount that's going to fencing and possibly moving the playground if it's going to be more than what's left from the martin electric on this years, then we would need to be looking to fund that line? Boston replied, transfer money. You can do a resolution and once the County Commission approves this budget and the state approves this budget, you can if we were to receive a gift from the state, let's say. Then you could always vote and do a resolution that the money go in there earmarked for Homestead. Safdie replied, I really look forward to gifts from the state. Boston replied, you never know. The outcomes money was a gift and we put it to very good use. Any other questions? Stout replied, so I wanted to hear from Mr. Stepp. I know he's been going through this process with the Budget Committee. This budget looks very different than what he originally sent out to all of us. His recommended balance budget. So I just wanted to hear from him now that the changes have been made. Does he feel that with these changes we are indeed supporting the Strategic Plan that we have in place and he and the staff will be able to be successful in moving forward in our top priorities for next year? Stepp replied, yes. Stout replied, well that was one simple answer to a long question. Safdie replied, it's appreciated. Stout replied, okay. Boston replied, well you've kind of the best of all worlds. We've got a fund balance, not as much as we had last year, but with the restrictions that have been put on us, I think and the maintenance, we've got a very heavy maintenance plan. Some of the big items are being taken care of and I mean we've done the best we could do with the resources that we have and still have something just in case it rains. Stout replied, and it looks like with the certified we've closed the gap down pretty good to that $50,000 minimum that we have to hit. So looks like we're about 34-25 away. When I was looking at that from where we need to be to hit the $50,000 minimum by the deadline. Boston replied, yes and we've got Kim two years on that? Bray replied, yes. Boston continued, 2026. Stout continued, so that'll be a little less over the next couple years than what we've been looking at. Boston asked, okay any other discussions? Any comments? If not I'll entertain a motion to approve this budget. Let's get it out to the County Commission. Hamby replied, move to approve. Boston replied, so we've got a motion on the floor that we approve this budget. I'll entertain a second to. Safdie replied, so moved. Boston continued, so we've got a first and a second. A Roll Call was taken. Boston continued, so motion carries. This budget will go out to the County Commission. I think we propose it June 6 at 4:30pm. Did everyone get that date? We present our budget June 6 at 4:30pm to the County Commission, but this will give them about two and 1/2 weeks to review.

Discussion:   Boston replied, so if no further business, I'll entertain a motion to adjourn. Hamby replied, I make a motion we adjourn. Safdie replied, second. Boston replied, so we have a first and second to adjourn. A Voice Vote was taken. The meeting adjourned at 5:17pm.
