[01:20:04]

YEAR THERE HAVE BEEN THERE HAVE BEEN SOME BRIDGES SOME FUNDING COMING IN BUT THIS IS ACTUALLY WE'RE ON THE FORMULA NOW OFFICIALLY SO IT'S STARTING THIS YEAR. THERE'S A LOT OF DISCUSSION ABOUT EXACTLY WHAT IS IS IN THE SUPERINTENDENT'S BUDGET AS FAR AS REVENUE TO BE CLEAR, WE ARE REQUESTING 36.4 MILLION IN ADDITIONAL ONGOING REVENUE AND THAT EQUATES TO A 3.96% INCREASE FROM YEAR OVER THE COUNTY. AND WE HAVE LOOKED AT THE LAST TEN YEARS OF ACTUALS AND IT'S IN ALIGNMENT WITH WITH THOSE REQUESTS.

FIRST OF ALL, 24.9 MILLION IN COST REDUCTIONS TO HELP FUND THE FY 23 COMPENSATION ENHANCEMENTS. AS YOU'RE AWARE, WE WE DID NEGOTIATE SOME ENHANCEMENTS THAT WERE OFF FAVORABLE SALARY ENHANCEMENTS LAST YEAR ONLY FUNDING WAS IN IN THE ONGOING FUNDING WE PAID FOR THE REST IT IN THE CURRENT YEAR WITH ONE TIME FUNDING THIS BUDGET NOW BUILDS INTO THE BASE ON IN AN ONGOING MANNER FOR THE UPCOMING YEAR. IT ALSO BEGINS THE COMP AND THE CONVERSATION AND FUNDS A COMPENSATION STEP

INCREASE FOR ALL ELIGIBLE EMPLOYEES FOR FY 24. >> IT ALSO REALIZES THAT NEGOTIATION INS ARE NOT NECESSARILY YOU KNOW THEY HAPPEN SEPARATE FROM FROM FROM THIS PROCESS SO WE HAVE A PLACEHOLDER IN THE BUDGET FOR ONGOING NEGOTIATIONS WITH ASSOCIATIONS AND IT WOULD BE OFFSET BY ADDITIONAL BUDGETARY EFFICIENCIES AN IMPORTANT POINT IN IN THE BUDGET IS IS THAT IT INCLUDES A $7 MILLION INCREASE AS REQUESTED BY THE COUNTY WHEN WE WHEN WE MET WITH THEM BACK IN THE FALL WHEN WE WERE TALKING ABOUT OUR PLAN TO PAY FOR THE RAISES, THEY ALSO SAID THEY WOULD LIKE US TO INCREASE OUR OPEB CONTRIBUTION AND WE ALSO AS EVERY AS IS IS THAT WE ARE AS INDIVIDUALS WE'RE DEALING WITH INFLATION AS AN ORGANIZATION AND THE AND THE BUDGETING INCLUDES INFLATIONARY INCREASES OF OVER $20 MILLION NEXT SLIDE PLEASE JUST JUST TO SHOW THAT WE'VE MET THE THE KIND OF AGREEMENT THAT WE HAD WITH THE COUNTY WE WE DISCUSSED $16 MILLION.

SO LET ME JUST TAKE A MOMENT TO INTRODUCE SO AS YOU KNOW, I'M DR. MARY MIKOVITS. I HAVE THE PLEASURE OF SERVING AS OUR ACADEMIC OFFICER. I'M JOINED THIS EVENING BY KEY MEMBERS OF MY TEAM THAT ARE RELEVANT TO THIS EVENING'S DISCUSSION. I HAVE MS. MEGAN SHEA IS OUR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF TEACHING AND LEARNING THERE ALL THE TRADITIONAL CONTENT AREA OFFICES SUCH AS MATH AND ELA AND CTE AND ISA I TWO MY RIGHT DOCTOR MELISSA WINSTEAD SHE'S OUR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

[01:25:05]

OF ACADEMIC SERVICES AND SHE IS ALSO OUR DESIGNATED SCHOOL SYSTEM BLUEPRINT COORDINATOR ALL THINGS BLUEPRINT IN ADDITION TO TITLE ONE ADVANCED ACADEMICS COLLEGE CAREER WHEN MY MISSING CHILD EARLY CHILDHOOD AND TO THE RIGHT WE HAVE DR. KIM FERGUSON, OUR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF SOCIAL EMOTIONAL LEARNING THIS EVENING AND TO MY FAR LEFT I HAVE MS..

ALLISON MYERS, OUR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF SPECIAL EDUCATION. SO I HOPE I'VE ASSEMBLED THE TEAM TO ADDRESS ANY QUESTION THAT YOU MAY HAVE THIS EVENING FOR OUR BUDGET. IF WE COULD GO ON TO THE NEXT SLIDE. WE KNOW THAT IN THE WAKE OF THE INTERRUPTION OF THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS THAT WE ARE STRIVING TO ADDRESS OUR ACHIEVEMENT AND PROPOSING A VARIETY OF TARGETED INITIATIVES UNDER STRATEGIC PLAN LEARNING, ACCOUNTABILITY AND RESULTS TO ACCELERATE

STUDENT LEARNING AS WE CONTINUE TO MOVE FORWARD IN THE WAKE OF OF LAST COUPLE OF YEARS. >> NEXT SLIDE PLEASE. WHAT YOU HAVE ON A SCREEN BEFORE YOU NOW IS OUR BLUEPRINT AND OUR BLUEPRINT IS A TRANSFORMATIVE ACTION THAT TRULY CHANGING THE THAT WE PROVIDE SERVICES TO OUR STUDENTS AT EVERY LEVEL YOU'LL SEE THE FIVE PILLARS OF THE BLUEPRINT AND YOU HEAR US REFER TO THEM OFTEN AND YOU WILL CONTINUE TO HEAR US REFER TO THOSE BLUEPRINT PILLARS NOT JUST IN THIS BUDGET CYCLE BUT IN THE UPCOMING CYCLES. THIS PARTICULAR BUDGET CYCLE WE ARE REALLY FOCUSING ON EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION, COLLEGE AND CAREER READINESS PATHWAYS AND OF COURSE ENSURING THAT STUDENTS HAVE ADDITIONAL THAT THEY NEED DEPENDING UPON THEIR PARTICULAR COMMUNITY. AND SO WE'LL TALK MORE ABOUT THOSE PARTICULAR NEXT SLIDE PLEASE.

TRACY RANG THE BELL ON ME AND MR. MERCEDES RANG THE BELL. YOUR TIME IS UP. OKAY. WELL, AS WE KNOW. LET ME TRY THAT AGAIN .IF YOU LOOK AT THIS SCREEN BEFORE YOU REALLY HAVE THESE IN KEY BUCKETS, I'M JUST GOING TO TAKE A MINUTE TO TALK ABOUT THEM TO KIND OF JUST CENTER US ON WHAT ARE THE THINGS THAT WE ARE ASKING FOR IN THIS BUDGET AND WHAT ARE THOSE SHIFTS AND THE WAY WE ARE PLACING OUR FUNDS TO THAT ALIGN WITH THE BLUEPRINT? SO FIRST AND FOREMOST WE HAVE OUR EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION INITIATIVES UNDER BLUEPRINT WE ARE LOOKING TO EXPAND FULL DAY PRESCHOOL AS WE KNOW THAT THAT REALLY SETS STUDENTS UP ON A TRAJECTORY OF SUCCESS OVER THE COURSE OF THE MANY YEARS THAT THEY SPEND WITH US AND BACKPACKS. IN ADDITION TO SUPPORTING AN EXPANSION OF FULL DAY PRESCHOOL PROGRAMS WHICH IS A MULTIYEAR PROCESS FOR US WE ARE ALSO LOOKING TO MOVE TOWARDS AN ELEVATED REQUIREMENT FOR OUR PRE-K PARENT PRE-K HELPERS AND PARENT EDUCATORS. UNDER THE BLUEPRINT WE KNOW THAT THE HIGHEST PERFORMING SCHOOL SYSTEMS AROUND THE GLOBE REALLY INVEST IN EARLY CHILDHOOD AND THEY ENSURE THAT THEY'RE INDIVIDUALS THAT ARE WORKING WITH OUR EARLIEST LEARNERS HAVE HIGH LEVELS EDUCATION AND TRAINING AND IN THE SPIRIT OF THAT BLUEPRINT IS ASKING THAT PRE-K CLASSROOMS BE SUPPORTED BY PARAPROFESSIONALS WHO HAVE EITHER A A AA DEGREE OR HELP ME OUT DOCTOR WITH SAID CHILD DEVELOPMENT ASSOCIATES OR CDA. IT'S I CAN NEVER REMEMBER THAT. SO THANK YOU. SO IN THAT EFFORT WE ARE WORKING TO TRY TO POSITION THOSE PRE-K FOR NEXT SCHOOL YEAR. WE CURRENTLY HAVE HOURLY EMPLOYEES PRE-K HELPERS WHO SERVE IN PRE-K CLASSROOMS AND WE HAVE A MULTI-YEAR PLAN WHEREBY WE WILL HAVE THE FUNDING ALLOCATED FOR PARAS AND FOR ANY OF OUR PRE-K HELPERS WHO MAY ALREADY MEET THOSE HIGHER CREDENTIALS. THEY WILL THEN BE ABLE TO MOVE INTO A PARA POSITION FOR ANY OUR PRE-K HELPERS WHO ASPIRE TO REACH THAT CREDENTIAL BY THE TIMELINE WHICH I THINK IS 2025 2026 SCHOOL YEAR 2020 526 SCHOOL

YEAR. >> THANK YOU. AND THAT WE ARE HAVE A TRAINING PROGRAM THAT THEY CAN ACCESS TO WORK

THEIR WAY TO MEET THAT CREDENTIAL. >> NEXT TOPIC I WANT TO TALK ABOUT HERE COMMUNITY SCHOOLS COMMUNITY SCHOOLS IS A TREMENDOUS INITIATIVE AND IT REALLY ADDRESSES THE PILLAR OF PROVIDING RESOURCES FOR OUR STUDENTS IN THEIR HOME SCHOOL COMMUNITY. AND WE KNOW THAT WHEN YOU SUPPORT A CHILD THAT ALSO MEANS YOU SUPPORT THE COMMUNITY. AND SO WE WILL BE EXPANDING THE NUMBER OF COMMUNITY SCHOOLS THAT PROVIDE WRAPAROUND SERVICES IN ADDITION SCHOOL BASED COMMUNITY SCHOOL FACILITATORS AND HEALTH

SERVICES SUPPORT THOSE 71 SCHOOLS. >> ADDITIONALLY CTE CAREER TECHNICAL EDUCATION IS A HUGE FOCUS UNDER BLUEPRINT BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT THE PATHWAY TO CAREERS SOME CAREERS

[01:30:04]

STUDENTS ENTER IMMEDIATELY AFTER HIGH SCHOOL WHILE OTHER CAREERS REQUIRE TWO AND FOUR YEAR DEGREES AND SOME CREDENTIALS EVEN HIRED GRADUATE DEGREES AS CTE WE ARE WORKING IN PARTNERSHIP WITH OUR COUNTY GOVERNMENT WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT TO REQUEST CTE SITE COORDINATORS TO HELP ENSURE OUR STUDENTS ARE ACCESSING INTERNSHIPS. MARYLAND APPRENTICESHIP OPPORTUNITIES AND REALLY ENGAGING AND WHAT IT'S LIKE TO BE IN THE WORKFORCE ENVIRONMENT OR THE WORKING ENVIRONMENT AS YOUNG ADULTS ARE GETTING THAT VERY REAL WORLD EXPERIENCE SO WHEN THEY CROSS OUR STAGE AND GET THAT DIPLOMA THEY ALSO HAVE A PROFESSIONAL CREDENTIAL ON THEIR HAND AND HAVE AN ENTRY INTO THE WORKFORCE. NEXT WE'RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT TRANSITIONAL SUPPLEMENTAL INSTRUCTION. THIS IS OFTEN SHORTENED TO TSA FUNDS. IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT THAT WHEN YOU'RE REFERRING TO THESE SUPPLEMENTAL FUNDS, INSTRUCTIONAL FUNDS THAT YOU DISTINGUISH THEM FROM TARGET AT SCHOOL IMPROVEMENT. AND SO I JUST WANT ENSURE THAT THE BOARD UNDERSTANDS THAT ACRONYM CAN BE USED FOR TWO DIFFERENT THINGS IN THIS CONTEXT WE'RE USING IT FOR THE SUPPLEMENTAL INSTRUCTIONAL FUNDS AT THESE FUNDS HELP US PROVIDE ADDITIONAL READING SPECIALISTS AND MACK MATH THAT ARE RESOURCE TEACHERS AT THE SCHOOL LEVEL. PLEASE KNOW THAT WE'RE GOING TO REFER TO RESOURCE TEACHERS AND NOT ALL RESOURCE TEACHERS ARE HOUSED OR ASSIGNED TO CENTRAL STAFF. IN THESE INSTANCES THEY ARE SCHOOL BASED RESOURCE TEACHERS AND THEN ADVANCED PLACEMENT EXAMS ENSURING THAT WE PROVIDE THE FUNDING FOR ALL STUDENTS WHO ARE TAKING ADVANCED PLACEMENT COURSES TO ALSO BE ABLE TO TAKE THE COLLEGE BOARD EXAM TO ACHIEVE THAT RECOGNITION AND CREDENTIAL IN TERMS OF POSSIBILITY OF COLLEGE CREDIT. NEXT SLIDE PLEASE. I'M SORRY. COULD YOU GO BACK? ONE SLIDE. THERE'S REALLY IMPORTANT POINT I WANT TO DRAW YOUR ATTENTION TO THESE BLUE PRINT INITIATIVES. THE MONEY COMES FROM THE STATE TO SUPPORT THESE INITIATIVES AND IN FACT BLUEPRINT FUNDING WILL BE PROVIDING $32.2 MILLION TO OUR

OPERATING BUDGET TO SUPPORT INITIATIVES. >> I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND THAT THAT STATE REVENUE COMING IN TO SUPPORT THESE WE KNOW ONE OF THE KEY FACTORS A BLUEPRINT IS ALONG WITH THE STATE FUNDING COMES VERY SPECIFIC GUIDELINES HOW THAT MONEY CAN BE USED AND THAT THAT MONEY IS DRIVEN DIRECTLY SCHOOLS. NEXT SLIDE PLEASE. HERE IS ON THIS SLIDE YOU ARE MY REQUESTS THAT ARE NOT BLUEPRINT FUNDING OF FUNDED AND THAT THESE ARE REQUESTS THAT I'M ASKING THAT WOULD ULTIMATELY COME FROM COUNTY TAX REVENUE FIRST AND FOREMOST TO ESTABLISH EXPAND OUR SERVICES TO OUR ENGLISH LEARNERS. WE KNOW OUR ENGLISH POPULATION IS OUR FASTEST GROWING GROWING STUDENT GROUP. WE HAVE APPROXIMATELY 11,000 ENGLISH LEARNERS AND IT IS GROWING EVERY DAY. I DO UNDERSTAND THAT YOU MONITOR OUR ENGLISH LEARNER POPULATION GROWTH SO YOU'RE WELL AWARE WE ARE IN THE PROCESS WORKING TO ENSURE THAT ENGLISH LEARNERS HAVE FULL ACCESS TO ALL THE AFTER SCHOOL CURRICULARS AFTER SCHOOL TUTORING, ATHLETICS AND ALL THE RESOURCES THAT COME WITH THEIR COMMUNITY, THEIR HOME SCHOOL.

FOR MANY OF OUR ENGLISH LEARNERS THEY ALSO ATTEND SCHOOLS HOME SCHOOLS, OUR SCHOOLS WHERE THE COMMUNITY SCHOOLS PROGRAMS ARE IN PLACE WE ARE REQUESTING AN ADDITIONAL 36 ESOL TEACHER POSITIONS TO SUPPORT OUR GROWING ESOL ENROLLMENT ACROSS OUR SCHOOL SYSTEM. ADDITIONALLY I AM REQUESTING FUNDS FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO WERE WITH US PRIOR

TO THE NEW BOARD JOINING US. >> WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF MOVING TOWARDS EVIDENCE BASED HIGHLY RATED CURRICULUM TO BE ALIGNMENT WITH THE STATE REGULATIONS BUT NOT JUST IT'S THE STATE REGULATIONS BUT WE KNOW THAT MORE RIGOROUS CURRICULUM M IS THE PATH TO OUR STUDENTS PERFORMING MORE SUCCESSFULLY AND HAVING THOSE TRUE COLLEGE AND CAREER READINESS SKILLS. AND SO TO THAT END WE HAVE BEEN PILOTING A PRODUCT. WE HAVE ALSO BEEN REQUESTED TO PILOT ADDITIONAL PRODUCTS OF WHICH WE HAVE BEGUN .SO WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF PILOTING DETERMINE WHAT WOULD BE THE BEST PRODUCT FOR OUR STUDENTS TO ENSURE THAT THEY HAVE A TRULY STANDARDS ALIGNED RIGOROUS PROGRAM THAT IS COMPLETE WITH RESOURCES. I WON'T BELABOR THAT POINT GET VERY PASSIONATE ABOUT IT BUT THE POINT IS I'M ASKING FOR THE RESOURCES THAT WHEN WE IDENTIFY THE PRODUCT AND EVERYONE IS AGREEABLE TO WHAT PRODUCT WE'RE GOING TO USE THAT THE MONEY IS PLACE TO PURCHASE IT BECAUSE WE NEED TO IDENTIFY THE PRODUCT, HAVE THE FUNDS PURCHASE AND THEN ROLL IT OUT AND IDEALLY IN TIME FOR NEXT SCHOOL YEAR. AND

[01:35:06]

THEN LAST BUT NOT LEAST WE AS MANY OF YOU KNOW WE WERE FORTUNATE TO HAVE ACCESS TO THE MARYLAND LEADS GRANT FROM THE STATE MSDE AND PART OF OUR APPLYING FOR THAT GRANT AND GETTING THE MAXIMUM AMOUNT THAT WE COULD. WE AS A COMMUNITY SAID THAT WE WOULD PROVIDE MATCHING FUNDS AND THAT ONE OF OUR REQUESTS THE MATCHING 1.5 FUNDS TO MAKE GOOD ON THE COMMITMENT WE MADE WHEN WE APPLIED FOR THAT GRANT. I EXCUSE ME ADDITIONALLY WE ARE ALSO ASKING FOR 1.5 POSITIONS TWO FOR THE NEW NORTHEAST MIDDLE AND SEVEN ASSISTANT PRINCIPALS AND SUPPORT STAFF TO RESPOND TO ENROLLMENT ACROSS SCHOOLS. OH, AND ONE LAST THING .THANK YOU. SPECIAL ED FUNDING EVERY YEAR THE COST THE TUITION COST OF NONPUBLIC PLACEMENT GOES UP AND. SO WE ARE ASKING FOR ADDITIONAL FUNDS TO HANDLE THE INFLATIONARY OF NONPUBLIC PLACEMENTS. IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE I SHOULD ADD? OKAY. THANK YOU. NEXT SLIDE BEFORE WE HAND IT OVER TO THE DEPUTY I THIS IS MY Q&A OPPORTUNITY DR. WENTZ IS THAT CORRECT? SO I GUESS WE COULD GO BACK THIS GO OVER SO THAT'S WHAT I'M ASKING FOR FOR OUR CHILDREN. I THINK I'M A HERE FOR QUESTIONS AT THIS POINT. MR. MINSKY I JUST HAD A QUESTION ABOUT THE L.A.

CURRICULUM. IS THIS GOING TO REPLACE THE OPEN COURT READING CURRICULUM? >> NO. SO OPEN CORE IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND THAT LITERACY AND MACHÉ I'LL GIVE YOU A MOMENT.

IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND THAT WHEN WE'RE BUILDING OUR READING SKILLS AT THE ELEMENTARY THERE ARE TWO PIECES THAT YOU NEED TO RECOGNIZE. THERE'S THE FOUNDATION PIECES WHICH IS REALLY WHERE WE HELP STUDENTS AND THIS WHERE I NEED YOUR EXPERTIZE TO COME IN TO TALK ABOUT WHAT EXACTLY FOUNDATION IS COMPARED TO OUR COMPREHENSION? THAT'S THE PHONEMIC AWARENESS PHONICS AND FLUENCY PIECES AND VOCABULARY AND THEN OF COURSE THE LANGUAGE COMPREHENSION IS READING COMPREHENSION AND THEN THE WRITING AND LANGUAGE USAGE SO THAT THE SHORT ANSWER IS NO OPEN COURT IS HERE TO STAY.

WE'RE SEEING SOME RESULTS THERE .AND SO ANY CURRICULUM THAT WE PURCHASE IS TO THE LANGUAGE COMPREHENSION PORTION OF THE CURRICULUM. IF I LOOK NOW I'M GLAD I'M GLAD TO HEAR THAT BECAUSE I'VE HEARD THAT EVERYONE LIKE MOST GOOD THINGS ABOUT OPEN COURT. WELL I ALSO WHEN ASKED HAS ANYBODY HAS IT BEEN RESEARCHED THE OPEN COURT PHONICS PART PART OF THAT

CURRICULUM TO WORK TOGETHER SINCE IT YOU KNOW THEY'RE THE SAME THEY WOULD KIND OF . >> SURE RIGHT SO THERE'S THAT NATURAL SENSE OF WHAT WOULD YOU USE THE TO. SO WE HAVE AN EVALUATION PROCESS AND AGAIN I'LL INVITE MS.. SHEA TO PROVIDE DETAILS FOR YOU ON WHERE WE ARE WITH THAT. SURE. SO THE ANSWER IS YES. THAT WAS A PART OF THE STAKEHOLDER REVIEW COMMITTEE. I ALSO WANT TO MAKE SURE I DON'T GO TO PROCUREMENT DALE BY MISSPEAKING AROUND WHAT CAN BE FOLLOWED UP .BUT ONE THING THAT'S IMPORTANT FOR THE STAKEHOLDER CRITERIA IS THAT ANY CURRICULUM WE PURCHASE HAS TO HAVE EVIDENCE A HIGHLY RATED EVIDENCE FOR ALL LEVELS AND SO SOME CURRICULUM SUCH AS OPEN COURT MIGHT NOT HAVE EVIDENCE THROUGH GRADE FIVE AND SO THAT IS IT. YES, IT CONSIDERED IT IS NOT ONE OF THE TWO THAT WE ARE PILOTING CURRENTLY. OTHER QUESTIONS FOR CNN I SO THANK YOU FOR THE CLARIFICATION OF TCI VERSUS TCI. SO THE SCREEN WHERE IT HAS A TRANSITIONAL SUPPLEMENTAL INSTRUCTION FOR THOSE ADDITIONAL READING SPECIALISTS AND MATH SCHOOL RESOURCE

TEACHERS AREN'T NECESSARILY GOING TO THE TSA DESIGNATED SCHOOLS. >> YES, THAT'S CORRECT .AND THANK YOU FOR MAKING SURE EVERYONE UNDERSTANDS THAT. AND THEN SO WHERE ARE THEY GOING? HOW ARE WE DETERMINING WHERE THOSE ADDITIONAL READING SPECIALISTS IN MATH SCHOOL

RESOURCE TEACHERS WOULD GO? >> SURE. AND IT'S IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND THAT WHEN WE FIRST GOT THE TARGETED SUPPLEMENTAL INSTRUCTIONAL FUNDS APPROXIMATELY THREE YEARS AGO.

IS THAT RIGHT. >> THEY CAME IN THE FORM OF A REIMBURSABLE WHICH IS DIFFERENT THAN HOW THAT MONEY IS FLOWING TO US IN THIS NEXT CYCLE AND THAT REALLY IS IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND BECAUSE WHEN THE FUNDS CAME IN TO US AS A GRANT WE HAD TO IDENTIFY AT THAT TIME WHERE THESE FUNDS WENT. OF COURSE THEY WENT DIRECTLY TO SCHOOLS IN ALIGNMENT WITH THE SPIRIT OF BLUEPRINT. THAT WAS REALLY THE FIRST WAVE OF BLUEPRINT FUNDING COMING IN AND SO AT THAT TIME WE IDENTIFIED A LARGE ELEMENTARY AND AGAIN I'LL INVITE MS. SHEA TO ADD BECAUSE SHE'S WORKED VERY CLOSELY OUR BUDGET TEAM ON WHERE EXACTLY THOSE RESOURCES ARE IDENTIFIED .THANK YOU. SO THE LEGISLATION AND BLUEPRINT TRANSITIONAL SUPPLEMENTAL INSTRUCTION SPECIFIES THAT IT HAS TO BE USED SUPPORT SMALL GROUP INSTRUCTION IN GRADES K TO

[01:40:05]

THREE ONLY. SO THE REASON WE PRIMARILY IDENTIFIED LARGE ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS TO HAVE A SECOND READING SPECIALIST IS BECAUSE TYPICALLY ONE WORKS WITH PRIMARY GRADES AND ONE WORKS OF SECONDARY. SO THAT WAS WAY THAT WE COULD IDENTIFY THAT DISTINCTION TO MAKE SURE THAT WE MET THE CRITERIA OF THE TRANSITIONAL SUPPLEMENTAL INSTRUCTION SO THE SCHOOLS IDENTIFIED INCLUDE A SECOND READING SPECIALIST AT SCHOOLS THAT ARE CONSIDERED LARGE I THE ORIGINAL NUMBER WAS 700 FOR ENROLLMENT BUT THAT MAY SHIFT OF COURSE ENROLLMENT SHIFTS EVERY DAY AND THEN IN ADDITION WE DID IDENTIFY SCHOOLS AND AT THE TIME IT WAS NINE SCHOOLS THAT HAD AN ADDITIONAL 7.5 POSITIONS, SOME OF WHICH WERE A POINT FIVE AND THAT WAS TO SUPPORT MATH INSTRUCTION AND WE WORKED COLLABORATIVELY WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF SCHOOLS AND THE AREA TO LOOK AT DIFFERENT DATA POINTS AROUND TEACHER TURNOVER MATH OBVIOUSLY MATH DATA IN THE PRIMARY GRADES IN PARTICULAR WE USED ANECDOTAL RECORDKEEPING OF TEACHERS TO TALK ABOUT IDENTIFY NEEDS AND THEN ALSO PRIMARY GRADE MATH MAP DATA BECAUSE OF COURSE IT'S SUPPORTING THROUGH THREE AND WE DON'T START USING MCAP UNTIL GRADE THREE. AND THEN THE THIRD WAY THAT WE IDENTIFIED IT THIS YEAR WE WERE TO WORK COLLABORATIVELY WITH TITLE ONE, THE OFFICE OF TITLE ONE. WE TRY TO BRAID FUNDS WHEREVER WE CAN TO MAXIMIZE THOSE DOLLARS AND SUPPORT STUDENTS. AND WHAT HAPPENED THIS YEAR SOME OF OUR TITLE ONE SCHOOLS WERE SEEING THEIR OVERALL ALLOCATION WOULD SEEM LIKE IT WAS BEING PINCHED AS WE ADDED MORE SCHOOLS AND AS SOME OF THE COSTS INCREASE. SO WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT THINGS LIKE PAY RAISES OR PER HOUR INCREASES HAS AN IMPACT ON HOW FAR YOU CAN STRETCH YOUR TITLE ONE DOLLARS AT A SCHOOL AND. SO WHAT WE WERE ABLE TO DO THIS YEAR IS MOVE SOME OF THOSE POSITIONS A TITLE ONE SCHOOLS THAT HAD BEEN FUNDED OUT OF A SCHOOL'S TITLE ONE BUDGET TO THE TRANSITIONAL SUPPLEMENTAL INSTRUCTION FUNDS THERE FOR FREEING UP SOME OF THOSE TITLE ONE FUNDS AT THE SCHOOL TO USE FOR A WIDE RANGE OF PROGRAMING PARENT NIGHTS THINGS FOR FOURTH AND FIFTH GRADE THINGS THAT WENT BEYOND THE SCOPE OF THIS GRANT AND I WILL JUST ADD WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE RESPONSES THE WRITTEN RESPONSES TO THE BUDGET QUESTIONS THAT HAD BEEN SUBMITTED, YOU CAN FIND THE LISTS OF SCHOOLS AND THEIR ALLOCATIONS BY READING SPECIALISTS AND MATH SPECIALISTS PAGES 41, 42 AND 43 FOR YOUR REFERENCE AT SOME THANK YOU. AND ONE OTHER QUESTION IF THIS IS GOING TO BE ANSWERED BY SOMEBODY ELSE JUST CUT ME OFF. SO ON THE SLIDES BEFORE THAT YOU GOT UP HERE IT SAID REDUCED CENTRAL OFFICE RESOURCE TEACHERS BY 3.6 MILLION AND I UNDERSTAND WE NEED TO FIND PLACES TO CUT. ARE WE GOING TO SEE A LIST OF THE RESOURCES I KNOW I HAD REQUESTED A LIST OF ALL RESOURCES TEACHERS IN DIFFERENT OFFICES. MY CONCERN BEING THAT WE NEED TO BUILD TEACHERS CAPACITY SO IF WE'RE REDUCING THE RESOURCES TEACHERS IN COURSE AREAS HOW IS THAT TO ALLOW US TO BUILD CAPACITY? I KNOW THE EFFICIENCY REPORT REALLY PRAISED THE RESIDENCY MODEL THAT YOU USED FOR RESOURCE TEACHERS AND THAT WAS A MODEL WAS MOVING US AND IT WAS A GREAT MODEL FOR THE RESOURCE TEACHER BUT IT NEEDS PEOPLE TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN SO IS THERE A PLACE WHERE THE LIST OF RESOURCE TEACHERS PER OFFICE IS LOCATED? YES, SO THERE IS AND THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO ADDRESS THAT. IF WHEN THE WRITTEN RESPONSES TO QUESTIONS YOU CAN FIND CHART ON PAGE 51 YOUR QUESTION IS AN EXCELLENT ONE BECAUSE IT REALLY IS FUNDAMENTALLY TO MOVE THE QUALITY OF OUR CLASSROOM INSTRUCTION REQUIRES SUPPORT AND COACHING AND SO IT REALLY WILL BE INCUMBENT UPON US TO LEVERAGE AT THE SECONDARY LEVEL THE POWER OF DEPARTMENT TO BE THAT GROUND LEVEL INSTRUCTION COACH TO HELP SUPPORT CAPACITY BUILDING AT THE ELEMENTARY WE HAVE IDENTIFIED TEACHER LEADERS WHO CAN HELP WITH THAT. OF COURSE THE CHALLENGES THE TIME TO BE ABLE TO GO IN AND HELP SUPPORT THEIR COLLEAGUES AND SO IT IS A LITTLE BIT MORE CHALLENGING AND WE HAVE TO THINK CREATIVELY AT THE BUILDING LEVEL HOW DO WE LEVERAGE THE THE RESOURCE AND EXPERTIZE AND AT THE SCHOOL LEVEL TO HELP SUPPORT THAT AS WE HAVE FEWER PEOPLE TO DEPLOY TO DO ANY TYPE OF RESIDENCY MODEL FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO MAY NOT BE FAMILIAR WITH WHAT MEAN BY THE RESIDENCY MODEL WE HAD APPROXIMATELY FIVE SIX YEARS AGO MOVED TO INNOVATIVE MODEL WHEREBY A RESOURCE TEACHER WOULD SPEND THREE WEEKS AT A SCHOOL AND SO THEY WERE ON A DEPLOYMENT TO A SCHOOL FOR THOSE THREE WEEKS WHERE THEY ARE WORKING VERY SPECIFICALLY WHEN INSTRUCTIONAL MATTERS AT THAT SCHOOL THAT WERE IDENTIFIED BY THE PRINCIPAL IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE SCHOOL EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR AND THE RESOURCE TEACHER SPENT TIME THERE SELLING IN AND REALLY SUPPORTING THE TEACHERS PARTICIPATING IN PROFESSIONAL LEARNING COMMUNITIES DATA TEAM MEETINGS MODELING TEACHING STRATEGY GES WITH THE IDEA OF WORKING IN PARTNERSHIP OF A SUSTAINABILITY. ONCE THAT RESOURCE TEACHER WAS PULLED BACK FROM THAT DEPLOYMENT AND THEN REDEPLOYED TO ANOTHER SCHOOL SO THAT IS WHAT REFERRING TO AS A RESIDENCY MODEL FOR ANYONE WHO MAY NOT

[01:45:02]

KNOW WHAT THAT REFERENCES THANK YOU AND SILLY QUESTION PROBABLY WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT THAT YOU'RE TELLING US THE PAGE NUMBERS TO FOLLOW UP DO WE HAVE THAT OKAY. OKAY. ALL RIGHT.

THAT'S FINE. I HAVE IT. THANK OKAY. I JUST WANT TO ADD TO THAT THAT RESPONSE I'M SO APPRECIATIVE OF THE RESOURCE TEACHER RESIDENCY BUT TO THE BOARD MY FIRST REQUESTS FOR MY BUDGET WHEN I FIRST CAME WAS TO TRYING TO BUILD CAPACITY WITHIN EVERY SCHOOL SO THAT YOU HAD THAT CAPACITY IN EVERY SCHOOL ARC STAFF DEVELOPMENT TEACHER LOOKING AT OUR READING SPECIALTIES TRYING TO EXPLORE MATHEMATICS SPECIALIST AT THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL AND TO TALK ABOUT WHAT DOES THAT LOOK LIKE AT THE DEPART AT THE SECONDARY LEVEL TEAM LEADER DEPARTMENT CHAIRS AT THE MIDDLE SCHOOL DEPARTMENT CHAIRS AT THE HIGH SCHOOL SO I JUST WANT TO ADD TO THAT DISCUSSION THANK YOU. JUST A FOLLOW UP, MARSHA. YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT TSA FUNDING AND READING SPECIALIST. DID YOU SAY THAT ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS WITH 700 KIDS OR MORE WERE PROVIDED WITH A SECOND RESOURCE LIKE BASICALLY SPECIALIST GO THROUGH K THROUGH THREE READING

SPECIFICALLY? >> YES SO I SAID THAT THE 700 NUMBER WAS MY BEST RECOLLECTION. I CAN FOLLOW UP ON EXACT NUMBER BUT THE BASIC PREMISE WAS THAT LARGE ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS GIVEN A SECOND READING SPECIALIST TO PRIMARILY FOCUS ON PRIMARY GRADES AND WHEN YOU DID THAT

YOU JUST DID WAS IT JUST A CLEAN SPLIT OR WAS IT SHARED DUTY ACROSS ALL FOUR LEVELS? >> YES. SO IT'S REALLY A SITE BASED DECISION. SO THE GRANT SPECIFIES THAT THE PRIMARY ROLE OF THESE FUNDS NEEDS TO BE FOR K THROUGH THREE IN EACH SCHOOL .OFTENTIMES THOSE TWO READING SPECIALISTS WERE COLLABORATIVELY LOOKING AT DATA AND ALSO WORK COLLABORATIVELY WITH THEIR SPECIAL EDUCATORS AND THE GENERAL EDUCATORS DEVISE THAT PLAN AND THEN WHAT WE DO ANNUALLY IS WE ASK THOSE FUNDED BY THESE FUNDS TO IDENTIFY THE NUMBER OF STUDENTS IN K THROUGH THREE THAT THEY SERVE. SO THAT CAN BE A COMBINATION OF PULL OUT SERVICES OR PUSH IN. SO IT'S WE DON'T ADVERTISE FOR THE POSITIONS TO SAY YOU ARE ONLY BEING HIRED FOR THIS OR THAT BECAUSE THE PRINCIPAL HAS SOME AGENCY AROUND USING DATA TO BE

RESPONSIVE BUT THAT'S THE EXPECTATION OF THE GRANT. >> AND THEN THE LAST PART OF THE QUESTION SO TITLE ONE FUNDS YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT BRAIDING THEM AND KIND OF COMBINING TO GET THE MOST YOU CAN. DID YOU ADD YET ANOTHER READING RESOURCE TEACHER TOO TO HELP

TACKLE THAT ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT THROUGH THREE AREA? >> SO THAT'S A GREAT QUESTION.

SO THESE SHOW A SHIFT IN FUNDING TO FUNDING THERE'S THEY'RE NOT NEW ADDITIONAL POSITIONS HOWEVER SOME OF OUR TITLE ONE SCHOOLS IF I JUST USED AN EXAMPLE OF YOU KNOW CHERRY TREE ELEMENTARY AS A TITLE ONE SCHOOL THEY'RE GIVEN AN ALLOCATION OF FUNDING THEY MAY HAVE USED THEIR SCHOOL BASED FUNDING TO FUND A SECOND READING SPECIALIST IF THEY WERE A TITLE ONE SCHOOL THAT FELL BELOW THAT THRESHOLD. SO MAYBE THEY HAD 500 STUDENTS. WHAT WE WERE ABLE TO DO IS TO SAY WE'RE GOING TO MOVE THAT POSITION TO THIS FUNDING AND GIVE YOU BACK THE DOLLARS IN YOUR TITLE ONE FUNDING. SO YOU STILL GET THAT READING SPECIALIST THAT YOU IDENTIFIED AS A NEED FOR YOUR SCHOOL BUT NOW YOU FREED UP THOSE FUNDS TO SUPPORT OTHER

PROGRAMING IN YOUR BUILDING. >> OKAY, THANK YOU. SURE. MR. MINSKY OH, I'M SORRY DR. SAVOY .DID YOU HAVE A QUESTION? OKAY. AND I THINK I HEARD YOU SAY HARVEY LEVIN ME I THINK I HEARD YOU SAY YOU HAVE 11,500 ESOL STUDENTS APPROXIMATELY 10% OF OUR STUDENT POPULATION. OKAY .HOW MANY TEACHERS YOU HAVE TO ACCOMMODATE THESE STUDENTS LIKE THE RATIO OF TEACHER TO STUDENT

YEAH GO AHEAD. >> OKAY WE CURRENTLY HAVE 212 SL FTE IS RIGHT NOW THE RATIO IS 54 TO 1 WITH THE 36 POSITIONS THAT WE'RE REQUESTING IF WE GET ALL 36 THE OVERALL RATIO WOULD GO TO 52 TO 1. THE REASON IT DOESN'T GO DOWN MUCH MORE IS BECAUSE OF THAT TREMENDOUS INCREASE THAT WE'RE TRYING TO BALANCE AGAINST AND THEN THAT AVERAGE OF 52 TO 1 WOULD ACTUALLY BE IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL RATIO WOULD BE CLOSER TO 54 TO 1 AND MIDDLE HIGH SCHOOL

WOULD BE 51 TO 1. OH, OKAY. THANK YOU. YES. >> STRAVINSKY. YES. WE'VE FROM A LOT OF PUBLIC COMMENTS ABOUT THE ADVANCED ACADEMIC ADVANCED ACADEMICS. CAN YOU EXPAND UPON WHY WE'VE YOU'VE DECIDED TO GO FROM FIVE PROFESSIONAL TO ONE AND KEEP ON FOR IS WAS THERE ANYTHING ELSE THAT WAS DISCUSSED TO THAT INSTEAD OF SHORTENING THAT STAFF UP YEAH. THANK YOU FOR

[01:50:05]

OPPORTUNITY TO SHARE HOW WE WE DISCERN WHERE CUT WHEN AND WHEN REDUCTIONS ARE REQUIRED SO IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND THAT OUR RESOURCE TO OUR CENTRAL RESOURCE TEACHERS REALLY

PROVIDE TWO FUNCTIONS. >> ONE IS TO DIRECTLY TEACH STUDENTS AND I HAVE QUITE A NUMBER OF RESOURCE TEACHERS THAT IF YOU WERE TO JUST ON PAPER YOU WOULD THINK DR. MCCOMAS HAS MORE TEACHERS AND SHE NEEDS BUT A GOOD NUMBER OF OUR RESOURCE TEACHERS ACTUALLY ARE TEACHERS OF RECORD FOR OUR STUDENTS AT THE BALTIMORE COUNTY DETENTION CENTER STUDENTS IN OUR E-LEARNING PROGRAM STUDENTS IN OUR VLP PROGRAM THEY ALSO DIRECTLY TEACH STUDENTS IN SUPPLEMENTAL PROGRAMS LIKE OUTDOOR EDUCATION AND OUR STAR LAB. AND SO I JUST ASK THAT YOU KEEP THAT IN THE BACK OF YOUR MIND THAT WE DO HAVE QUITE A NUMBER OF RESOURCE THAT ARE CENTRAL RESOURCE TEACHERS WHO EVERY DAY ARE DIRECTLY TEACHING STUDENTS A PARTICULAR PROGRAM.

BESIDES THAT OUR RESOURCE TEACHERS TEACH TEACHERS OR I SHOULD SAY COACH TEACHERS RIGHT BECAUSE THEY'RE COACHING THEIR COLLEAGUES TO MAKE SURE THAT WE CAN BUILD THAT CAPACITY THAT DR. WILLIAMS WAS TALKING ABOUT BECAUSE WE HAVE MANY NEW TEACHERS AND IT TAKES TIME TO BECOME A MASTERFUL TEACHER AND SUPPORT AND SO WHEN WE HAVE TO MAKE REDUCTIONS WE FIRST AND FOREMOST PRESERVE RESOURCE TEACHERS THAT ARE PROVIDING DIRECT SERVICE TO OUR STUDENTS BECAUSE TO THEM IS TO ELIMINATE PROGRAMING DIRECTLY TO STUDENTS WHICH OF COURSE WE ALL WANT TO AVOID NEXT REALLY COMES WHAT ARE OUR PRIORITY AREAS ELA AND MATHEMATICS ARE TRULY CRITICAL AREAS. WE KNOW THAT WHEN YOU ELEVATE STUDENTS OF CAPACITY AROUND LITERACY THAT THEIR ACHIEVEMENT RISES IN ALL OTHER CONTENT AREAS AS WELL. SO ELA MATHEMATICS CERTAINLY ARE KEY AREAS THAT WE SEEK PRESERVE THEN WE START MOVING ON TO WHAT ARE THE OTHER ASSESSED IN SCIENCE AND SOCIAL STUDIES WHICH ARE ALSO SUPPORTIVE OF THE LITERACY THEN WE MOVE ON TO WHERE THERE OFFICES THAT IF WE CUT THEY ARE LEFT WITH NO ONE TO SUPPORT THOSE PROGRAMS ACROSS 178 SCHOOLS AND SO YOU CAN SEE HAVE A SERIES OF PRIORITIES THAT WE GO DOWN WHEN YOU LOOK AT PAGE FOUR I FORGET WHAT PAGE IT WAS I QUOTED THINK MAYBE 54 WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE CHART YOU'RE GOING TO SEE AND THE QUESTION WAS POSE THAT WAS ASKED OVER A OF YEARS SO YOU CAN SEE OVER TIME HOW WE HAVE TRIED VERY SURGICALLY ADDRESS NEEDS OF REDUCTION WHILE ALSO TRYING TO PRESERVE OF COURSE FIRST AND FOREMOST SERVICE THE STUDENTS AS SECOND SERVICE TO OUR TEACHERS IN THE CRITICAL AREAS AND THEN PROGRAM SUPPORT. SO YOU'LL SEE THAT AND IN TERMS OF ADVANCED ACADEMICS THERE THERE SERVICES WERE ONE UNDER CONSIDERATION JUST LIKE THE OTHER AREAS AS WELL YOU WILL SEE FOR EXAMPLE IN ONE CASE OUR OFFICE OF COLLEGE AND CAREER READINESS I THINK WE HAVE TOTALLY ELIMINATED RESOURCE TEACHERS SUPPORT THAT PROGRAM AND SO THEY ARE CHALLENGING DECISIONS TO MAKE. THEY ARE MADE WITH THOUGHTFULNESS AND I'VE EXPLAINED SORT OF OUR PROCESS OF PRIORITIZING WHERE TO PRESERVE I WOULD SAY THAT I'M LOOKING AT JUST KIND OF THE SALARY WISE YOU'VE CUT FOR FOR TEACHERS OR FOR RESEARCH SEIZURES BUT YOU'VE YOU HAVEN'T IN HALF THE SALARY. SO ESSENTIALLY BECAUSE IT GOES FROM 618 TO 321 AND YOU GO FROM 6 TO 2. SO I'M JUST CURIOUS COULD THERE HAVE BEEN MORE JUST YOUR YOU HAVE ONE PROFESSIONAL RESOURCE TEACHER THAT'S GOING

TO NOW HAVE TO TRAIN ALL TEACHERS TEACHING ADVANCED ACADEMICS SO CAN I ADD ONE. >> YEAH AND THEN AND CERTAINLY HAVEN'T WHAT CAN ANSWER BETTER BUT SOME OF THAT MIGHT REFLECT OUR RESEARCH TEACHERS BEING FUNDED FROM DIFFERENT SOURCES SO THAT'S SOMETHING THAT I THINK SO LET ME ASK YEAH I CAN ANSWER BUT BUT I WAS TO ADD TO CURRICULAR SCUSE ME FOR A SECOND I JUST WANT TO HEAR FROM I WANT THE ANSWER FROM MR. TENLEY OR MR. HART LOVE THAT QUESTION ABOUT THE SALARY PIECE .YEAH JUST JUST FOR CLARIFICATION REPEAT THAT SO WE

MAKE SURE WE'RE ANSWERING RIGHT ?>> YES. I WAS TRYING TO UNDERSTAND CUTTING FOR TEACHERS AND THE SALARY IS I MEAN YOU HAVEN'T CUT SALARIES IN HALF AND THE WAGES OF THAT WE'VE GONE FROM 618 TO 321 BUT YOU'VE GONE FROM SIX FTE IS TO TWO SO I WOULD THINK THAT WOULD BE

MORE OF BE MORE OF A CUT. >> DO YOU SAY THE PAGE NUMBER THAT YOU LOOK AT PLEASE? 09209 APPENDIX E CURRICULUM AND INSTRUCTION INSTRUCTION ADVANCE ACADEMICS I JUST WANT TO CLARIFY IT'S THREE RESOURCES BECAUSE THERE'S STILL ONE RESOURCE TEACHER REMAINING THEN

[01:55:05]

SO THREE WERE REDUCED FROM THE FOUR THAT WERE ORIGINALLY THERE IT SAYS HERE FIVE AND ONE AND THEN ONE AND ONE SHE'S GETTING EXTRA. SO WHILE THEY'RE LOOKING FOR THAT ANSWER MAYBE WE

ENTERTAIN ANOTHER QUESTION. >> OKAY. AS THEY EXPLORE THEIR ANSWER I WILL ADD IF I MAY ADD ONE QUALITY POINT TO THE DISCUSSION IS THAT OUR ELA OFFICE AND MATHEMATICS OFFICE WORKS WITH ADVANCED ACADEMICS TO ALSO HELP INFUSE AND PROVIDE THAT CAPACITY BUILDING. SO THAT'S PART OF THE STRATEGY OF SHIFTING. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. AND FOUR L.A. RESOURCES TEACHERS ON THAT SAME GRID YOU HAVE CUT TO SEVEN NOW HOW ARE THEY DISTRIBUTED K TO 12 GO TO FAIR THERE WILL BE THREE ELEMENTARY, THREE SECONDARY AND ONE DEDICATED TO COLLABORATE WITH SPECIAL EDUCATION ON INTERVENTION SPECIFICALLY TO 12 SO IF WE GET OR WHEN WE GET A NEW READING SERIES FOR K TO FIVE HOW MANY DID YOU SAY WE HAD? I WOULD HAVE THREE FOR A 108 ELEMENTARY SCHOOL SO WE CAN GET A BRAND NEW SERIES BUT VERY LITTLE SUPPORT TO ENSURE THAT IT'S IMPLEMENTED AS INTENDED WITH RESULTS THAT WE NEED. OKAY .THAT WASN'T QUITE IT WAS JUST

OKAY. >> THANK YOU. OTHER QUESTIONS FOR CNI. YES MR. ROSE THANK YOU. I'M NOT GOING TO ASK YOU A GREAT QUESTION JUST SO THAT I'M CLEAR I'M LOOKING AT YOUR AP COURSES WHICH WILL BE OFFERED FREE I ARE THESE JUST THE COURSES THAT ARE OFFERED BY THE AP BOARD OR ARE THERE

ADDITIONAL THAT YOU COULD ADD TO LIST? >> GO AHEAD. SO THE MONEY THAT'S BEING REQUESTED IS TO PAY FOR THE EXAMINATIONS OF THE STUDENTS. SO THE COURSES ARE ALWAYS FREE FOR THE STUDENTS TO TAKE BUT FOR THEM TO TAKE THE EXAM THERE IS A FEE FOR THAT SO THAT'S WHAT THE MONEY IS ABOUT THE LIST THAT'S PROVIDED I DON'T KNOW WHAT PAGE 20 IS 34 OUT OF 38 POSSIBLE ALL ADVANCED PLACEMENT COURSES ARE OFFERED IN BALTIMORE COUNTY PUBLIC SCHOOLS IN THE FOUR THAT

ARE NOT OFFERED ARE LISTED AT THE BOTTOM. >> OKAY. THANK YOU .WE DO HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF CLARIFICATION SO IT WAS DONE AND ASKING IF YOU GO ON THAT SAME PAGE, IF YOU GO DOWN TO INSTRUCTIONAL SALARIES AND WAGES WHICH IS WHERE THOSE RESOURCE TEACHERS WOULD BE CAPTURED, YOU NOTICE WE'RE GOING FROM 400 DOWN TO 111 AND AND THAT CORRESPONDS TO THE FOR THE REDUCTION OF FOUR FTE. SO WE WENT DOWN ABOUT 300,000 NOT QUITE $300,000 FOR 444 FTE RIGHT THERE FOR PROFESSIONAL POSITIONS NOT STAFF. SO I JUST JUST DOESN'T REALLY EQUATE TO ME IT SEEMS LIKE A PROFESSIONAL WOULD PROBABLY MAKE MORE THAN A SUPPORT STAFF AND YOU CUT FOUR OF THEM BUT NOT EVEN 300,000 FROM THE BUDGET AND ACTUALLY IT'S LIKE A 20 SOMETHING PERCENT INCREASE AND THOSE THOSE TWO POSITIONS SALARIES SO I HAVE TO I DON'T HAVE ALL THE DETAILS IN FRONT OF ME BUT THAT IS IN ALL PURE SALARY SALARIES WOULD ALSO INCLUDE YOU KNOW FOR INSTANCE IF YOU HAD IF YOU'RE PAYING FOR SUMMER SCHOOL, IF YOU'RE PAYING STIPENDS, IF YOU'RE DOING DEVELOPMENT I'M NOT SAYING THAT'S HERE BUT THINGS IN SALARIES ARE NOT JUST STRAIGHT SALARIES. SO THERE COULD BE CONTRACTUAL EMPLOYEES THAT ARE PAID THAT WOULD ALL

HIT THE SALARY BUCKET THAT SEPARATED CONTRACTED SERVICES. >> WOULDN'T THAT BE PART OF CONTRACTUAL SALARIES? I IT DEPENDS ON HOW IT'S STRUCTURED .A LOT OF SOME A CONTRACT WOULD FALL UNDER CONTRACTUAL BUT WE HAVE EMPLOYEES THAT WE PAY FROM OUR PAYROLL AND THEIR CONTRACTED THEY'RE NOT FTE FEES AND THOSE WOULD GET PAID UNDER SALARIES SO I GUESS THERE COULD BE MORE TRANSPARENCY FAR AS WHAT THE SALARY NUMBER GOES INTO BECAUSE I MEAN IT DOES IT THERE'S I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO BASE IT OFF OF OTHER THAN THE SUPPORT STAFF OR THE FTE

TOTALS TO THAT THOSE SALARIES ARE THAT RIGHT. >> SO FOR A QUESTION LIKE THAT GET THE VERY GRANULAR BUILD UP OF THAT WE WOULD HAVE TO GO PULL THAT APART AND GET BACK TO YOU. BUT YOU KNOW THE BUDGET BOOK TO SHOW THOSE KIND OF DETAILS INSTEAD OF 300 PAGES YOU KNOW IT'D BE A THOUSAND PAGES THERE'S ANY ITEM COULD HAVE LOTS OF DETAILS BEHIND IT SO.

[02:00:06]

WILLIAMS IF ANYONE ON YOUR TEAM HAS PURSUED THOSE OR IF THAT IS A STAFF RESOURCE THAT COULD BE BENEFICIAL IF THERE'S

BEEN A COST BENEFIT ANALYSIS OF ADDITIONAL TO PURSUE THOSE GRANT OPPORTUNITIES. >> STAFF MEMBERS. CHIEFS HAVE LOOKED AT DIFFERENT WAYS OF FUNDING OUR BIGGEST SOURCE. MOST OF THE

TIME IS THROUGH MSD. >> THAT'S AS MUCH AS I CAN SHARE AT THIS TIME. YEAH. IT BE HELPFUL FOR THE BOARD TO ADVOCATE WITH THE FOR ADDITIONAL GRANT OPPORTUNITIES WE'RE HEARING ABOUT INVESTMENTS IN SYSTEMS AND THEIR TERRIFIC SYSTEMS PARENTS HAVE BEEN ASKING FOR BUS APPS YOU KNOW TRANSPORTATION APPS THAT WE'RE HEARING ABOUT BUT I'M WONDERING IF WE COULD HELP ABSORB SOME OF THOSE COSTS IF THERE ARE ANY GRANT OPPORTUNITIES SO LET'S ALLOW THE TEAM TO PRESENT AND WE'LL HOLD THAT THOUGHT IN THAT RECOMMENDATION AND BE HAPPY TO FOLLOW UP SO WE CAN HAVE A COMPLETE RESPONSE TO YOUR QUESTION. THANK YOU. OKAY. MM

HMM. >> WELL, GOOD EVENING, CHAIR LICHTER VICE CHAIR HARVEY MEMBERS THE BOARD DR. WILLIAMS .FOR THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW ME, I'M PEDRO CHIEF INFORMATION OFFICER AND HEAD OF THE DIVISION OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY. AND HERE TO MY RIGHT IS JODIE AUBURN SENIORS OUR DIRECTOR OF THE TECHNOLOGY OFFICE. SO SHE'S RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL OF OUR DAY TO DAY

[02:10:06]

SUPPORT FOR DESKTOP SERVICES AND ANYTHING OUT IN THE FIELD. SO WE HAVE A VERY INTIMATE GROUP HERE TODAY. I DON'T HAVE A LOT OF FOLKS WITH ALL THE FIT THE CHAIRS THE CHAIR YES. SO IF WE GO TO THE NEXT SLIDE PLEASE .YEAH. SO WE HAVE VERY TARGETED REQUEST FOR THIS BUDGET CYCLE. IT'S SUPPORT THE AREA OF OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE. NEXT SLIDE PLEASE. SO WE DO HAVE THREE AREAS OR THREE ASKS AND THE FIRST ONE IS THE CLASSROOM DISPLAY PANEL. SO IN THE SPRING OF 2022 THE BOARD APPROVED A CONTRACT TO IMPLEMENT THE INTERACTIVE DISPLAY. THE INITIAL FUNDING FOR THAT YEAR WAS COVERED THROUGH FUNDS THIS PAST FISCAL YEAR WITH THE UNDERSTANDING THAT THE SUBSEQUENT FUNDING WOULD BE INCORPORATED INTO THE OPERATING .SO WE ARE NOW ASKING FOR THE $767,000 TO COVER THE ONGOING FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE INTERACTIVE DISPLAY PANELS. THE NEXT BULLET IS THE I.T NETWORK SUPPORT CITIES ARE THREE FTE THAT WE'RE ASKING FOR. THE FIRST ONE IS FOR THE I.T.

NETWORK SUPPORT. THAT RESOURCE WOULD BE ADDED TO THE EXISTING TEAM OF FOUR FULL TIME FIELD ANALYSTS THAT WE CURRENTLY HAVE .THEY ARE ON BOARD TO SUPPORT THE OVER 200 LOCATIONS THEY WILL HAVE ACROSS ALL OF US AND THE NETWORK DEVICES THAT ARE INCLUDED IN ALL THOSE 200 LOCATIONS IN ADDITION TO THE DAY TO DAY OPERATIONS. THE TECHS ARE ALSO RESPONSIBLE FOR THE UPGRADE AND DEPLOYMENT OF OUR NETWORKING EQUIPMENT EQUIPMENT, THE SWITCHES AND SO FORTH THAT WE HAVE TO PUT OUT IN ALL OF THE LOCATIONS. SO ADDITIONAL RESOURCE WOULD BE THERE TO SUPPORT DAY TO DAY PLUS THE INCREASED NEED FOR TECH SUPPORT THAT WE'RE GOING TO HAVE FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION .THE OTHER TWO POSITIONS THE BUSINESS ANALYSTS AND SOFTWARE ENGINEER ARE REQUESTED TO SUPPORT THE THE AREA OUR OFFICE OF DEVELOPMENT SUPPORT THEY ARE NEEDED TO PROVIDE THE ONGOING SUPPORT AS WE'RE LOOKING AT THE RISC MODERNIZATION EUROPE MODERNIZATION AS WELL AS THE INCREASE IN REQUEST DEVELOPMENT AND CHANGES IN EXISTING SYSTEMS

.>> THAT IS $300,000 FOR THOSE THREE OR FOUR YEARS. AND THEN LASTLY WE'RE REQUESTING $1.7 MILLION FOR THE UPGRADE OR THE IMPLEMENTATION OUR I.T. NETWORK FIREWALLS AND ASSOCIATED SOFTWARE LICENSE IS FOR THE SAS COMPONENT OF THAT. THE NETWORK FIREWALLS WILL GO INTO THE HIGH SCHOOLS. ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE WERE LOOKING AT IS TO INCREASE OUR SECURITY POSTURE.

WE WANTED TO SEGMENT THE NETWORK SO IN WE HAD ANY ISSUE SECURITY ISSUE AT A PARTICULAR HIGH SCHOOL WE COULD LOCK DOWN THE NETWORK SO THAT WOULD BE THE ONLY IMPACTED AREA. SO THE WAY TO DO THAT IS TO IMPLEMENT THE ADDITIONAL FIREWALLS IN THE HIGH SCHOOL IRIS IN ADDITION TO THE THREE MAIN FIREWALLS THAT WE HAVE TODAY AND I'LL ENTERTAIN ANY QUESTIONS AT THIS POINT. GOOD EVENING AND THANK YOU FOR THE PRESENTATION. THE BUSINESS ANALYST AND SOFTWARE

ENGINEER OUR NEW POSITIONS OR ADDITIONAL BUSINESS ADDITIONAL PEOPLE IN THAT THEY ARE. >> SO WE DO HAVE BUSINESS ANALYSTS, DEVELOPMENT STAFF THESE WOULD BE ADD ONS TO EXISTING STAFF.

>> THANK YOU MR. MINSKY. YOU MENTIONED THE 1.7 MILLION. YES. IS THIS JUST THE FIREWALLS FOR

HIGH SCHOOL? >> YES. SO THIS IS THE INCREASE FOR FIREWALLS FOR HIGH SCHOOLS PLUS ADDITIONAL

SOFTWARE THAT GOES ALONG WITH THE SERVICES THAT GO WITH THAT. >> HAS BEEN ANY THOUGHT ABOUT UPGRADING THE FIREWALLS FOR ELEMENTARY LEVEL? I KNOW I'M HEARING FROM PARENTS THAT KIDS ARE ABLE GET TO YOUTUBE ROBLOX A MIMIC FORM OF MINECRAFT ON THEIR SCHOOL COMPUTER ON SCHOOL WI-FI AND IT'S CAUSING ISSUES AT HOME WHEN THEY COME HOME AND WHERE YOU KNOW SOMETIMES AT THAT YOU KNOW K THROUGH 12 TO K THROUGH THREE THEY DON'T HAVE A SCRIPT LIKE THEY DON'T YOU KNOW, ENTERTAIN SCREEN TIME AT HOME AND IT'S A FIGHT BECAUSE YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BRING YOUR

CHROMEBOOK HOME TO DO HOMEWORK OR TO CHARGE IT OR WHAT IF FOR WHATEVER REASON. >> SO I WANTED

[02:15:03]

TO KNOW IF THAT WAS BEING ADDRESSED. WELL IT'S SO WELL I'LL I'LL START BY SAYING THAT THE FIREWALLS WILL ADDRESS WHAT I'LL CALL IMPROPER NETWORK USE OF NETWORKS SO THAT WE SEE MALICIOUS ATTACKS ARE OR A AND DENIAL OF SERVICE SO WHERE WE'RE GETTING A STRING OF OF JUST BAD TRAFFIC COMING IN TRYING TO DISRUPT OUR SERVICES .FIREWALLS WILL CATCH THAT. IN TERMS OF THE CONTROLS THAT WE AT THE DEVICE LEVEL WHICH IS WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT WITH CHROMEBOOKS I'LL LET SOMETHING JUST TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT WHAT WE CURRENTLY HAVE IN WITH THE THE CLOUD MANAGEMENT CLOUD MANAGEMENT AND THEN ALSO THE EVENT DETECTION AT THE DEVICE

LEVEL. >> ABSOLUTELY THAT'S A GREAT QUESTION THAT YOU'RE ASKING AND ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE ARE LOOKING AT IS THE PROTECTIONS WE HAVE IN PLACE. SO THAT WOULD BE THINGS LIKE THE FILTERING WHICH LIMITS THE INAPPROPRIATE ACCESS TO THOSE SITES AS WELL AS SOME OF THE CONTROLS THAT GOOGLE OFFERS US CENTRALLY TO MANAGE THE ACCESS TO SPECIFIC PARTS OF THAT DEVICE. SO SOME OF THE THINGS THAT HELP US WITH THIS ARE SOME EXAMPLES OF WHEN THAT'S BEING USED AND THAT'S NOT FOR HERE BUT WE'LL BE TAKING THAT ITEM FROM YOU AND DOING SOME MORE RESEARCH. BUT THAT IS DIFFERENT THAN THE FIREWALLS THAT MR. AGUSTO WAS TALKING ABOUT EARLIER. YEAH, I KNOW. YEAH, I'LL MAKE THAT CALL REITERATE. SO IN GENERAL WHEN WE DO GET QUESTIONS OR POTENTIAL ISSUES, THE THE VERY FIRST THING WE ALWAYS ASK FOR ARE SPECIFIC EXAMPLES. IF WE CAN GET EXAMPLES ALLOWS TROUBLESHOOT IF WE CAN ACTUALLY HAVE NAMES OF PEOPLE THAT ARE GOING THROUGH ITEMS IT HELPS WITH OUR TROUBLESHOOTING EFFORTS AND HELPS US IDENTIFY IF THERE'S SOMETHING THERE THAT WE NEED TO CLOSE THE GAP ON. THANK YOU.

OTHER QUESTIONS. >> OKAY. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. YEAH, THAT WAS SLIDE 20 OF 21. SO I'M JUST

GOING TO SUMMARIZE. OKAY. YES, PLEASE. OKAY. >> SO I'M THANK YOU TO ALL THE STAFF AND THANK YOU FOR ALL THE THOUGHTFUL QUESTIONS AND. I'M SURPRISED THAT WE WERE ABLE TO GET THROUGH EVERYTHING TONIGHT SO THAT'S THAT'S GOOD JUST TO LET YOU KNOW OBVIOUSLY BUDGET BOOK IS OUT ON THE WEBSITE ALL THE QUESTIONS THAT HAVE BEEN SUBMITTED TO TO DATE THE BOARD WE'VE ANSWERED WE HAVE A FEW THAT CAME IN LATER TODAY WEREN'T ABLE TO GET THOSE. IT'S KIND OF A MONUMENTAL EFFORT. WE HAVE ALL OF OUR STAFF PULLING TO GET THE ANSWERS TO YOUR QUESTIONS SO BUT THE ONES THAT WE I THINK WE RECEIVED AS OF THIS MORNING WE'VE ANSWERED AND YOU AND YOU HAVE THOSE ANSWERS SO AND THEN MONDAY NIGHT WE HAVE A BUDGET COMMITTEE MEETING WE CAN WE HAVEN'T SET OUR AGENDA YET BUT WE WE'RE TO HAVE FUN I'M SURE.

SO I HAVE A NAIVE QUESTION AS WELL. SO WHAT ARE THE NEXT STEPS FAR AS SO WE WE'VE GOTTEN MESSAGES FROM THE COUNTY EXECUTIVE. THE BUDGET'S TOO BIG .IT NEEDS TO BE. SO WHERE DO

WE GO FROM HERE? >> WELL, THE REALLY THE NEXT STEP IS I BELIEVE IT'S THE IT WAS THE DATE OF THE 28TH IS THE 28 FEBRUARY 28TH IS THE NEXT OFFICIAL DATE. EVERYTHING WE DO BETWEEN NOW AND THEN WOULD BE INFORMATION THE THE THE COMMITTEE MEETING IT WAS AN INFORMATION IF WE AT THE NEXT MEETING IF WE HAVE ANYTHING ON THE AGENDA IT WOULD BE INFORMATION ON THE 28 THE BOARD WILL ADOPT THEIR YOUR OFFICIAL REQUEST IN EFFECT AND THAT'S WHAT IT IS AND THEN THAT GOES TO THE COUNTY GOVERNMENT ANYTHING WE HEAR LIKE YOU KNOW ,COMMENTS IN THE NEWS AND SO ON THOSE ARE JUST COMMENTS THEY DON'T REALLY KNOW. YOU CAN RESPOND TO THOSE AND YOU YOU CAN USE THOSE YOUR THOUGHT PROCESS AND YOU KNOW IN YOUR DECISION MAKING PROCESS BUT THEY'RE JUST KIND OF WEIGHING IN ON WHAT THEY'VE SEEN SO FAR .BUT NO, YOU WILL YOU WILL ADOPT YOUR OFFICIAL BUDGET ON THE TAPE AND THAT'S THE LAST TIME YOU'LL TOUCH IT UNTIL WE GET TO WE TILL THE END OF THE PROCESS IF WE REALLY IT'S MORE IN THE COUNTY'S HAND THE COUNTY EXECUTIVE GOES FROM THERE. HE CAN YOU CAN MODIFY BUDGET AS HE HAS DONE IN PAST YEARS. THEN IT GOES TO THE COUNTY COUNCIL APPROVAL AND THEN THAT BECOMES OUR OUR BUDGET. SO IF WE DON'T MODIFY IT, THERE'S A GOOD CHANCE THE COUNTY EXECUTIVE

WILL MODIFY IT. >> YEAH YOU KNOW HE'S HE'S HE'S GOING TO LOOK AT WHAT WE'VE WE'VE PUT OUT ON THE TABLE AND HE'S GOING TO LOOK AT IT COMPARED TO WHAT HE BELIEVES AS WELL AND HE'S TO MORE THAN LIKELY MAKE MAKE REDUCTIONS DOWN TO A CERTAIN LEVEL WHICH IS PROBABLY WHAT

[02:20:05]

HE'S HE'S HE'S GOING TO DO. >> BUT WE'RE GIVING HIM THE POWER TO MAKE THE REDUCTIONS VERSUS

US MAKING THOSE DECISIONS. >> YEAH, I THINK THAT'S A VERY GOOD POINT. YOU KNOW YOU CAN AND THIS IS STRATEGY AND I DON'T I'LL JUST GO MY OWN WELL THIS IS MY THIS IS CHRIS OUR LOVED TALKING FOR FOUR SIX YOU CAN PUT MANY THINGS IN THE BUDGET THAT YOU'RE THAT'S YOUR PRIORITY YOU CAN DO THAT IF YOU WANT BUT THEN YOU HAVE TO LOOK AT THE REALITY OF IS IT GOING TO GET FUNDED AND IF IT'S IF ARE A LOT OF NUMBERS A LOT OF OF ITEMS ON THAT LIST, THEN THIS THE COUNTY EXECUTIVE MAY HAVE TO MAKE THOSE DECISIONS AS TO WHAT CUT VERSUS PRIORITIZING .I DO BELIEVE YOU WANT SOMETHING ASPIRATIONAL BUT ALSO MAYBE IN THE REALITY OF OF OF REALISTIC SO THAT IF HE IF HE HAS TO REDUCE IT AT LEAST THE THE CHOICES ARE NARROWED

DOWN TO YOUR PRIORITIES VERSUS HIS HIS PRIORITIES. >> DO WANNA SAY SOMETHING, DR. WILLIAMS

YOUR FINGER. >> OKAY. I WILL SAY THIS AND SAY IT ANYWAY. THIS IS THE BOARD OF EDUCATION BUDGET THAT'S GOING FORWARD TO THE COUNTY EXECUTIVE AND WHAT WAS HELPFUL THAT LAST YEAR I MEAN JUST ABOUT LAST YEAR THE BOARD DECIDED TO PRIORITIZE ONE ITEM AND THAT ONE ITEM WAS THE PEOPLE SO AS WE'RE GETTING QUESTIONS WE CAN GO ON RECORD BASED ON YOUR ACTION FROM PREVIOUS YEAR THAT PLEASE FOCUS IF YOU DO IF YOU CAN'T DO EVERYTHING PLEASE ON THIS ONE ITEM AND LAST YEAR IT WAS ABOUT THE AND SO THAT WAS SHARED WITH THE COUNTY EXECUTIVE SO I JUST WANT TO OFFER THAT WHATEVER IN THE PROCESS BETWEEN NOW AND THE END OF FEBRUARY I WILL ASK OF MR. HART LOVE WHY ASK WE'VE DONE YOU TOOK MY BUDGET TWEAKED DID WHATEVER YOU NEED TO DO NOW IT'S THE BOARD OF EDUCATION BUDGET BUT ONE OF US WILL ASK THANK YOU BOARD BUT CAN YOU ALSO IDENTIFY WHAT'S THAT ONE THING ONE ITEM THAT YOU REALLY WANT TO SAY WE NEED TO PRIORITIZE IF THERE ARE ANY POTENTIAL REDUCTIONS THAT SEEM TO HAVE HELPED LAST YEAR'S PROCESS I WOULD OFFER THAT AGAIN AS WE GO THROUGH THE ADOPTION OF THE BOARD'S BUDGET

.>> WOULD YOU AGREE? I AGREE WITH THAT 100% AND AS WE GO THROUGH THE PROCESS OVER THE NEXT FEW WEEKS WE WILL UPDATE YOU ON ANY REVISIONS TO NUMBERS I KNOW THAT MAY COME OUT DURING THAT PERIOD OF TIME IS THE SPENDING AFFORDABILITY SO WE COULD WE COULD PROBABLY UPDATE YOU ON THAT. THAT'S NOT SOMETHING YOU DON'T HAVE TO ACT ON IT BUT IT'S JUST INFORMATION LIKE I SAID, EVERYTHING BETWEEN NOW AND THE 28TH IS SOLELY INFORMATION TO HELP YOU MAKE

YOUR FINAL DECISIONS. >> SO THERE'S A LONG TIME BETWEEN NOW AND THE 28TH WE HAVE A BOARD MEETING ON THE 14TH OF FEBRUARY WHICH IS IN THREE WEEKS. I KNOW THAT WE SENT YOU MORE QUESTIONS THAT YOU WEREN'T RIGHT. SO DOES IT MAKE SENSE TO MAKE A MOTION TO ANOTHER WORK SESSION TO THE FEBRUARY 14TH TO DO SOME OF THIS WORK THAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT INSTEAD

OF WAITING UNTIL FEBRUARY 28TH JUST TO MAKE THE ADJUSTMENTS? >> I THINK THAT'S A GOOD SUGGESTION IN ANYTHING THAT YOU CAN AND WE WILL COST OUT ANYTHING BUT TIMING, YOU KNOW, SO THREE WEEKS FROM NOW IF YOU HAVE AN IDEA TODAY LET US KNOW SOMETHING YOU WOULD LIKE TO ADD BECAUSE THEN WE CAN GIVE YOU A COST AND THAT COST INFORM YOU AS TO DO I WANT TO ASK FOR THIS OR DO I NOT WANT TO ASK FOR IT OR DO I WANT TO MAYBE REVISE MY MY REQUEST DOWN LITTLE BIT OR UP A LITTLE BIT? SO BUT TIME IS YOU KNOW IS OUR STAFF THE BUDGET STAFF'S ALLY IF YOU KNOW

KUHN OKAY. >> DISCUSSION. >> THANK YOU. I OVERALL I SUPPORT THIS MOTION. I DO HAVE A QUESTION FOR DR. WILLIAMS AND THAT IS WHAT IS THE BURDEN SLASH COST WAY TO IMPLEMENT THE LOCATION GUIDELINES THE MOTION TO HOLD THREE MEETINGS A YEAR AT THE VARIOUS LOCATIONS? IS THERE ANY COST IN TERMS OF TECHNOLOGY UPGRADES? AND CAN YOU SPEAK TO THE STAFF TIME AND OR BURDEN TO CARRY THIS OUT TO SUPPORT THE BOARD SO? I KNOW WE JUST WE REVIEW THAT I'M LOOKING AT COMMUNICATION IS OUR DR. TZACHI IN THE COURSE TO ACTUALLY HAVE A BOARD MEETING ON ANOTHER OTHER THAN GREENWOOD BUT SINCE NO ONE IS MOVING AT THIS POINT OH OKAY ONE MOMENT

AND I DON'T KNOW IF THIS AND COMPLETE BUT THANK YOU MR. AT LEAST ATTEMPT TO ADDRESS. >> OKAY GOOD EVENING BUT THANK YOU DR. SERGEANT FOR JOINING. I BELIEVE WE DID PRESENT AND IT MAY HAVE BEEN AN UPDATE TO THE BOARD OR WEEKLY COMMUNICATION TO THE BOARD AT LEAST SOME ROUGH ESTIMATES OF THE COST OF MOVING BOARD MEETING LOCATIONS. AND SO VERY QUICKLY IF YOU'LL PARDON MY READING AT A REGULARLY SCHEDULED BOARD OF EDUCATION MEETING HELD AT GREENWOOD TO STAFF FROM BCP, STAFF ARE ASSIGNED TO SUPPORT THE NEEDS OF THE MEETING TO SUPPORT THE NEEDS OF A MEETING HELD OFFSITE. THE NUMBER OF BCP TV STAFF WOULD LIKELY INCREASE TO EIGHT THE NUMBER OF HOURS REQUIRED FOR BCP TV'S STAFF TO SUPPORT AN ON OFF SITE MEETING WOULD ALSO INCREASE DUE TO THE NEED TO TRANSPORT SET UP AND TEST EQUIPMENT PRIOR TO THE MEETING DIRECTOR AND SUPPORT THE NEEDS OF THE MEETING WHILE IN PROGRESS AND BREAK DOWN AND TRANSPORT ALL EQUIPMENT AT THE AT THE CONCLUSION OF THE MEETING. HALF OF THESE STAFF MEMBERS ARE PAID HOURLY AND WOULD BE DUE OVERTIME AND APPROXIMATE COST OF OVERTIME FOR FOR STAFF WOULD BE 1500 TO 1700 PER MEETING. BCP TV WOULD NEED TO RENT EQUIPMENT SUCH AS MICROPHONES, CABLES, SOUNDBOARD AND AN OPERATOR. THE APPROXIMATE COST FOR THIS EQUIPMENT RENTAL IS 1700 PER MEETING. IT THEN GOES ON TO TALK ABOUT SECURITY COSTS. I CAN TO READ IF IF THE BOARD WILL INDULGE ME INABILITY TO SECURE A LARGE SPACE WITH MULTIPLE POINTS OF ENTRY AND EGRESS THAT MIGHT SIMULTANEOUSLY BE USED FOR OTHER EVENTS SUCH AS OR OTHER EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES AS WELL AS COMMUNITY EVENTS CREATE UNIQUE PROBLEMS. THERE IS A DIFFICULTY NOTED IN PLANNING FOR AND MONITORING PEOPLE ALREADY IN A BUILDING AT THE TIME A MEETING. ALL OF THIS CREATES A NEED FOR ADDITIONAL SECURITY. AT LEAST TWO SECURITY OFFICERS WOULD BE NEEDED AT A CURRENT COST $45 AN HOUR ESTIMATING 6 HOURS FOR EACH OF THE FOUR MEETINGS. AT THE TIME WE WERE THINKING FOUR MEETINGS WOULD COST 21 $2,160. THERE'S CURRENTLY NO FUNDING ALLOCATED TO BOARD MEETING SECURITY. DIFFICULTY IN SECURING UNIMPEDED ARRIVAL AND DEPARTURE BOARD MEMBERS AND THE SUPERINTENDENT ALSO CREATE SECURITY PURPOSES. SECURITY CONCERNS RATHER. AND I'M JUST

[02:35:01]

SCANNING VERY QUICKLY TO SEE IF THERE WERE ADDITIONAL COSTS. >> WAS THERE A TOTAL FOR. THAT IS ALL I HAVE ON THIS. AND AGAIN, THIS WAS A PREVIOUS COMMUNICATION. I CERTAINLY CAN'T PROVIDE A MORE THOROUGH RESPONSE BUT I THINK ROUGHLY THOSE ARE THE COSTS THAT WE DETERMINED AT THE TIME AND I THINK WE THIS ON MAY 20TH, 2022 WITH THE BOARD AT THAT TIME WHO

WAS LOOKING INTO THIS? >> DR. HAGER, DID YOU HAVE A COMMENT? >> I DID. I RECALL SAME CONVERSATION AND I FELT LIKE MAYBE WE HAD AN EVEN DEEPER CONVERSATION PRC MAYBE ABOUT THIS AS WELL. AND IN ADDITION TO THE SIGNIFICANT COSTS THERE WERE ALSO SIGNIFICANT SAFETY CONCERNS AND I WAS CHAMPIONING THIS AS WELL WITH MR. MCMILLION WAS A BIG CHAMPION OF THIS I LIVING IN THE SOUTHWEST IT TAKES A LONG TIME TO GET THIS HOUSE IN AND SO THE IDEA OF GOING TO WHERE OUR STAKEHOLDERS ARE I THINK IS REALLY IMPORTANT BUT IT JUST DOESN'T SEEM FEASIBLE. AND AGAIN WE I FELT LIKE WE TALKED ABOUT THIS LOT OVER THE LAST YEAR AND I WAS CERTAINLY CONVINCED THAT NOT A FEASIBLE OPTION. THE OTHER ASPECT THIS PROPOSAL I'M VERY CONCERNED ABOUT IS THE IDEA PEOPLE WOULD NOT KNOW AHEAD OF TIME IF THEY WERE CHOSEN TO SPEAK AGAIN. IT'S A REALLY SIGNIFICANT COMMITMENT FOR PEOPLE TO COME TO BOARD MEETINGS AND TO ALSO THEN HAVE TO GET THEIR WAY EARLY TO GET IN. HAVE YOU CHOSEN I THINK THAT THAT WOULD REALLY DETER PEOPLE WHO LIVE FURTHER AWAY FROM OF ATTENDING AND I THINK THAT'S I ASSUME THAT'S A BIG PART OF THE REASON THAT WE'RE HAVING THIS

DISCUSSION IS TO INCREASE. >> THANK YOU. MR. OFFERMAN, DID YOU HAVE A COMMENT? >> YES. I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE BOARD MEMBERS AWARE OF EXCUSE ME I'D LIKE TO MAKE THE NEW BOARD MEMBERS AWARE THAT WE HAD SUCH PROBLEMS WITH SECURITY AND THREATS THAT AT TIMES WE HAD TO ENTER THE BUILDING FROM A FROM A DIFFERENT ENTRANCE. MY CONCERN OF OF OF GOING TO OTHER AREAS WHICH IS AN IDEA IS I DON'T I DON'T SEE HELP OR HAVING TO TWO SECURITY GUARDS WOULD MAKE IT POSSIBLE TO BE TO BE A SECURE. AND GIVEN THE GIVEN THE WAY THINGS GO IN THE WORLD TODAY I THINK I THINK BORDER SECURITY HAS ENDURED AND STAFF SECURITY HAS TO BE THE

HIGH PRIORITY AND I. I WON'T BE SUPPORTING THIS. THANK YOU THANK YOU. >> MAGGIE. DID YOU AND MR. HAMMOND ASK EACH ONE TO SPEAK TO YOUR MOTION? YES. THERE WERE SEVERAL THINGS THAT WENT INTO I CHOSE THIS. WE HAVE HAD MEETINGS AT GEORGE WASHINGTON CARVER AND CBS TV WAS THERE TO COVER SO IT'S NOT LIKE THAT WASN'T SOMETHING THAT CAN'T BE DONE. THIS THREE MEETINGS OUT OF I'M 24 OUT OF THE YEAR. I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT US TO BE NEAR OUR CONSTITUENTS FOR GIVE THEM AN OPPORTUNITY TO GET BE HERE IN TOWSON ALSO AS FAR AS SECURITY PURPOSES WE'RE GOING TO SCHOOLS WHERE OUR CHILDREN TO SCHOOL SO IF OUR CHILDREN ARE SAFE THERE

WE SHOULD BE SAFE THERE. THANK YOU. MS.. CULVER, CAN YOU DO A ROLL CALL VOTE ON MS.. >> DOMINUS SKYE'S MOTION? IF I COULD JUST ADD BECAUSE I WANT TO BRING US BACK TO A BOARD MEETING WHERE DID HAVE SOME SERIOUS CONCERNS ABOUT SAFETY. THE BALTIMORE COUNTY POLICE DEPARTMENT DID AN ASSESSMENT AND MADE SOME RECOMMENDATIONS THAT WERE PRESENTED TO THE THE PREVIOUS FULL BOARD AND WE I BELIEVE THAT WAS PUT ON HOLD FOR NEW BOARD MEMBERS TO

CONSIDER. >> IT WAS A TIME WHERE SEVERAL BOARD MEMBERS SHARED SPECIFICALLY THEY WERE CONCERNED ABOUT THEIR IMMEDIATE SAFETY. SO I THINK IT WOULD BE IMPORTANT TO GO BACK AND REVISIT THAT ASSESSMENT THAT THE BALTIMORE COUNTY POLICE DEPARTMENT PROVIDED FOR US AND LOOK AT POSSIBLY GETTING RECOMMENDATIONS IF WE'RE GOING TO MOVE THE BOARD MEETINGS TO SCHOOLS OR OTHER LOCATIONS. SO THAT HAS BEEN A GOOD BLOCK OF TIME. BUT DID HAVE SOME SERIOUS CONCERNS ABOUT SAFETY THAT I JUST DON'T WANT US TO FORGET ABOUT. OKAY. MR.

MCMILLIAN. >> MR.. MR.. JUST WANTED TO FOLLOW UP. I TOTALLY RESPECT THAT THIS IS A NEW BOARD. I DON'T HAVE ANY SAFETY CONCERNS THAT I'M AWARE OF . I'M MORE CONCERNED FOR MY STUDENTS AND SCHOOLS AND. I, I JUST THINK IT'S A DIFFERENT BOARD AND I DON'T, I MEAN MAYBE

IT'S NOT THE SAME SITUATION. >> GO AHEAD. I IN AN ATTEMPT TO CUT COSTS, WE'VE TALKED ABOUT SCHOOLS, THESE TV STATIONS SET UP AND WE'RE TALKING ABOUT RUNNING EQUIPMENT TRANSFER, TRANSPORTING EQUIPMENT. IF WE LOOK AT THE SCHOOLS AROUND THE COUNTY AND THOSE MIGHT BE SOME THAT WE FOCUS ON WE SPEND A LOT OF MONEY OVER THE LAST NUMBER OF YEARS BUILDING THESE TV

[02:40:04]

PROGRAMS, THESE TV SHOWS, THE CAPABILITIES THEY HAVE OF BUILDING. I'VE BEEN IN SCHOOLS WHERE THEY'VE DONE THEY DO MORNING ANNOUNCEMENTS EVENING ANNOUNCEMENTS. SOME OF THESE PEOPLE LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY AT LEAST PEOPLE I SPOKE TO ABOUT COMING IN AND HAVING THE OPPORTUNITY TO DO THIS WITH THEIR KIDS AND MAYBE OUR PEOPLE AS AS YOU KNOW, SUPERVISORS OR WHATEVER HELP THEM. IS IT GOING TO BE THE SAME QUALITY AS WHAT THEY DO HERE? BUT BUT IT'S A CHANCE AT DOING THAT. SECONDLY, THE ON THE SAFETY COST OF IT WE HAVE ALL THESE SCHOOL SAFETY THAT ARE IN OUR SCHOOLS EVERY DAY. YOU KNOW, WHY CAN'T WHEN WE'RE TALKING TO PEOPLE? WHY CAN'T WE HAVE 20 OF THOSE PEOPLE, YOU KNOW, PULL THEM IN. THERE'S GOING TO BE A COUPLE ASSIGNED TO EACH SCHOOL PULL THEM OUT FROM THAT SCHOOL SURROUNDING.

WE COULD COVER EVERY ENTRANCE AND EXIT THERE IS UTILIZING THOSE PEOPLE AT A REDUCED COST OF $45 AN HOUR. THERE SO I THINK THAT WE NEED TO GO BACK AND REVISIT THIS AND LOOK AT IT AND SERIOUSLY. YOU KNOW, WE CAN CUT COST HERE AND IT'S NOT ABOUT MONEY. IT'S THE

OPPORTUNITY TO GET OUT ENGAGE OTHER PEOPLE IN THE SYSTEM. >> THANK YOU. MR. PUMPHREY DID YOU WANT TO MAKE A I ACTUALLY WANT TO MOVE TO AMEND BUT I THINK WE MAY WANT TO FINISH THIS PART OF THE DISCUSSION FIRST BECAUSE MY AMENDMENT WOULD GO IT WOULD BE TO PARAGRAPH ONE AND TWO

UNDER SPEAKERS AND NOT THE PARAGRAPH THAT WE'RE CURRENTLY DISCUSSING. >> OKAY. THANK YOU

.>> I SUPPORT GOING OUT IN THE COMMUNITY I THINK IS INDIVIDUAL MEMBERS. WE HAVE LOTS OF OPPORTUNITIES TO BE WITH OUR CONSTITUENTS IN THEIR LOCALES. CHAIR LICHTER SUPPORTED US OR ENCOURAGED US TO VISIT OUR AREA ADVISORIES AND TO GO TO THOSE MEETINGS AND TO GET OUT AND TO VISIT SCHOOLS TO VISIT PTA MEETINGS COMMUNITY MEETINGS. THOSE ARE ALL OPPORTUNITIES THAT WE CAN TAKE OF AS BOARD MEMBERS THOSE GROUPS LOVE WHEN WE GO OUT AND WE I FIND THEM TO BE EXTREMELY RICH OPPORTUNITIES .AND THAT NOT THAT WE THAT WOULDN'T BE ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY BUT THE RISKS. I QUESTION THE RISKS ARE WORTH THE REWARD AND IT DOESN'T IT'S NOT GOING TO CHANGE THE FACT OF ME GOING OUT AND BEING IN MY COMMUNITY TALKING STAKEHOLDERS. THAT'S NOT GOING TO CHANGE AND IT'S NOT PUTTING ANYONE AT RISK. IT'S NOT PLACING A BURDEN ON SCHOOLS, NOT PLACING A BURDEN ON CENTRAL OFFICE STAFF AND I'M SHARING THAT FEEDBACK I HEAR AT THE FULL BOARD MEETING AND BRINGING THAT BACK AND ECHOING THE THAT FEEDBACK THAT RECEIVE AS AN ADVOCATE AND AS A REPRESENTATIVE FOR THOSE COMMUNITIES. SO I THINK THAT'S THE END GOAL. I SUPPORT THAT. I THINK THE MEANS IS WHAT WE'RE DISCUSSING AND DEBATING. I THINK THE MEANS CAN BE ACCOMPLISHED IN A SAFE WAY. I'VE BEEN ON THE BOARD. THIS IS GOING INTO MY SIXTH YEAR. I HAVE SAFETY CONCERNS. WE ARE NOT WE ARE SUBJECT TO WE MAKE DECISIONS THAT ARE UNPOPULAR UNFORTUNATELY THAT IS TODAY'S WORLD AND I APPRECIATE THE SAFETY MEASURES THAT DR. SARGEANT SPOKE TO. I APPRECIATE THAT THIS IS A CONTROLLED ENVIRONMENT AND I WOULD SUGGEST ALTERNATIVE MEANS OF REACHING OUT TO THE COMMUNITY. LAST COMMENT, MR. SUN. THANK YOU. I'LL SPEAK TO THE TRANSPORTATION AND THE LOCAL FIRST. SO I DO AGREE WITH THE SAFETY CONCERNS. UM I EXPERIENCED SORT OF THAT FROM AN OUTSIDE PERSPECTIVE AS JUST A MEMBER OF THE AUDIENCE. I BELIEVE LAST YEAR PRIOR TO EVEN BEING SWORN IN OR BECOMING A CANDIDATE AND A FINALIST SO I DID FEEL THAT AND THE FACT THAT THERE INDIVIDUALS OUTSIDE OF OUR BUILDING BANGING ON WINDOWS IS NOT A SAFE ENVIRONMENT AND YOU KNOW WE HAVE THIS HERE FOR A REASON AND I THINK WE SHOULDN'T HAVE TO SUBJECT ALL OF OUR SCHOOLS TO THAT THAT FEAR AND THAT STRESS AND THAT STRAIN BECAUSE YOU KNOW, AS MISHAN AS YOU SAID, WE HAVE SO MANY OPPORTUNITIES VISIT OUR SCHOOLS. I KNOW ME PERSONALLY I'M VISITING EVERY SINGLE MIDDLE AND HIGH SCHOOL BCBS AND SOME ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS BY THE END OF MY TERM AND I ENCOURAGE ALL OF YOU TO DO THE SAME. IF YOU WANT TO AMPLIFY STUDENT RESOURCES SCHOOLS AND ALL OF THESE RECORDING STUDIOS CHECK OUT ABC TV. LET THEM KNOW YOU WANT TO DO A SEGMENT IN THEIR SCHOOLS BECAUSE I PROMISE YOU THEY BE SO EAGER TO SEE THAT. SO I JUST THINK THERE ARE OTHER MATTERS TO GO ABOUT THIS ALSO THE FACT THAT THIS IS LITTLE BIT INACCESSIBLE TO INDIVIDUALS WITH LIMITED TRANSPORTATION THERE ARE REASONS A LOT OF PEOPLE PICK CERTAIN CERTAIN BOARD MEETINGS TO COME AND TESTIFY AND SOMETIMES IT'S BASED ON WHAT WE'RE DISCUSSING .SO THE FACT THAT THEY ALL TO COME AND SAY OKAY WELL WE MIGHT GET SELECTED BUT IF NOT WE'RE SITTING HERE UNTIL WE GO HOME JUST ISN'T FAIR TO PEOPLE WHO DON'T HAVE THAT REGULAR ACCESS TO TRANSPORTATION, PEOPLE WHO TAKE PEOPLE WHO GET RIDES TO THE BOARD MEETINGS. I KNOW I USED TO BE ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE SO I JUST THINK IT'S NOT ENTIRELY EQUITABLE DOESN'T CONSIDER THE FACT THAT OUR BOARD MEETINGS ARE 5 HOURS LONG AND MUST BE RECORDED. IT DOESN'T CONSIDER THE FACT THAT YOU KNOW THESE BUILDINGS ARE UTILIZED FOR A LOT OF OTHER SPACES. SO IF WE'RE GOING TO YOU KNOW, THINK ABOUT EQUITY, WE CAN THINK ABOUT HOW WE CAN ASSIST IN PROVIDING

[02:45:04]

TRANSPORTATION 2000, HOW WE CAN BUILD THAT PROGRAM. BUT I THINK IT'S IT'S A LITTLE BIT INEQUITABLE AND UNFAIR TO, YOU KNOW, PUT ALL OF THESE SCHOOLS THROUGH STRESS WHEN WE HAVE WE HAVE THE RESPONSIBILITY AND THE CAPABILITIES TO GO OUT INTO OUR COMMUNITIES? OKAY. SO NOW AT

THIS POINT WE WILL VOTE ON MS. DOMINANT MOTION. >> I WOULD I WOULD LIKE TO MOVE TO MOVE TO AMEND MOTION. WE VOTE. OKAY. MAKE YOUR AMENDMENT HERE WOULD BE TWO SUBSTITUTES. I'LL SECOND

.>> YOU WANT ME TO SAY FIRST I'M SORRY. THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT THOUGH. >> THANK YOU.

IT'S CHARLIE GREEN DOCTORS, AREN'T YOU? THANK YOU. I MOVED TO SUBSTITUTE AND I HOPE I DO THIS CORRECTLY. I MOVED TO SUBSTITUTE UNDER SPEAKERS PARAGRAPH ONE AND TWO WITH PARAGRAPH FROM OPTION B, PARAGRAPH ONE AND TWO FROM OPTION B THAT I SEE THAT CORRECTLY. SO I WENT TO SUBSTITUTE PARAGRAPH ONE AND TWO AND MADE OMINOUS MOTION UNDER SPEAKERS TO PARAGRAPH ONE AND TWO UNDER SPEAKERS OPTION B THAT WAS PROVIDED PREVIOUSLY.

SO YOU'RE ADDING THE IDEA OF CONTINUING THE REGISTRATION FOR SPEAKERS AND JUST MAKING

SURE THAT THAT'S THE INTENT OF YOUR REGISTER? >> THE INTENT IS TO CONTINUE WITH YOUR ONLINE REGISTRATION AND VERIFY AND ALSO WITH THE FIRST COME FIRST SERVE WAIT LIST SCALABLE 30 MINUTES PRIOR TO THE MEETING IS THERE A SECOND TO MS. HUMPHREY'S AMENDMENT? I'LL SECOND. OKAY. OKAY NOW. WE'LL DO A ROLL CALL VOTE ON THE AMENDMENT. CORRECT. CAN YOU READ THE WHOLE MS. WHAT ARE WE TALKING ABOUT? SO MR. MINSKY SENT US AN EMAIL WITH WHAT SHE READ TO US RIGHT ABOUT 50 MINUTES AGO MS. PUMPHREY IS MAKING A CHANGE TO WHAT SHE SENT US SO SHE IS CHANGING THE SPEAKER'S PARAGRAPH ONE AND TWO WHICH TALK ABOUT NOT NEEDING TO HAVE THE REGISTRATION TO WHAT IS ON THE OPTIONS THAT MS. OVER POSTED IN BOARD DOCS SHEET THE FIRST TWO PARAGRAPHS OF OPTION B CORRECT? CORRECT. IF I COULD JUST PICK OUT GO AHEAD CLARIFY.

SO WHAT YOU'RE SAYING IS CORRECT MY REASONING IS BASED UPON DR. RECOMMENDATION THAT SPEAKERS KNOW IN ADVANCE IF THEY'RE SELECTED ALSO TO CONTINUE WITH OUR ELECTRONIC SIGN UP FORMAT THAT'S INTENTION AS FAR AS COMBINING MADAM AND ASK IS REQUEST ALONG WITH

OPTION B THAT WE WERE PRIOR TO THE MEETING SO THAT'S WHAT WE'RE VOTING ON. >> COULD YOU

JUST READ HOW IT WOULD READ THOUGH JUST TO CLARIFY JUST PARAGRAPH ONE. CORRECT. >> YOU HAVE TO TRY TO DO SO UNDER SPEAKER'S IT'S OPTION B IT WOULD SAY ANY PERSON OR STAKEHOLDER GROUP REPRESENTATIVE WHO WISHES TO ADDRESS THE BOARD MUST REGISTER

ONLINE. DO YOU WANT TO CONTINUE ?>> OKAY. THANK YOU. YOU'RE WELCOME. AND BEFORE WE DO A ROLL CALL VOTE, I JUST WANT TO SAY ONE THING THAT THE SECURITY WE HAVE IN SCHOOLS ON A DAILY BASIS WOULD NOT BE THE SECURITY WE'D HAVE IF WE MOVE THE BOARD MEETINGS WE HAVE RAPTOR WE HAVE SOMEBODY SITTING THERE THEY HAVE TO COME IN SO. IT'S NOT THE SAME LEVEL OF SAFETY THAT

WE WOULD HAVE IF OUR KIDS WERE IN THE BUILDING. >> OKAY. ROLL CALL VOTE ON MS. HUMPHRIES

OKAY ROLL CALL VOTE ON IS THERE A SECOND Q SECOND SO IF SHE'S TAKING OUT IF YOU LOOK AT THE EMAIL THAT WE THAT MR.

THE MOTION FAILS. WE ARE BACK TO THE FIVE OPTIONS THAT WERE TO YOUR BOARDWALK'S MY QUESTION YES MISS HARVEY I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO ADOPT OPTION SECOND PUMPHREY SORRY READ IT DO WISH TO DISCUSS YOUR MOTION ,MISS HARVEY YES I THAT BEING CONSIDERATE TO PEOPLE'S TIME IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THEY KNOW IN ADVANCE IF THEY ARE ABLE TO SPEAK I DO THINK IT IS WORTHWHILE TO ALLOW PEOPLE WHO ARE COMING TO FILL SPACES WHERE SPEAKERS DON'T SHOW UP. I THINK THE NUMBER TEN FOR 3 MINUTES REMAINS APPROPRIATE AND

THEREFORE I SUPPORT OPTION B CAN I HAVE A ROLL CALL VOTE ON TO AMEND? >> YES MR. MINSKY I JUST WOULD LIKE STRIKE NO SPEAKER SUBSTITUTIONS WILL BE ALLOWED TO SUBSTITUTIONS WILL BE ALLOWED IF I USE THE ONE OF THE TEN ARE NOT CHOSEN SO THAT'S THAT ALREADY AN OPTION IT SO WE I THERE'S IT'S VERY CONFUSING I'M A YES YES MS. HARVEY SO I WOULD NOT BE IN SUPPORT OF THAT AMENDMENT SUBSTITUTE WOULD BASICALLY CONSTITUTE ME SIGNING UP FOR EXAMPLE AND SOMEONE COMING TO SPEAK FOR ME RATHER IF WE'RE ALLOWING FOR THOSE WHO COME AND

SIGN UP FOR A WAIT LIST TO SPEAK I THINK THEY SHOULD HAVE FIRST OPPORTUNITY. >> THE ONLY PROBLEM I HAVE WITH THAT IS THAT THEY'RE PRE-REGISTERED SO WHY HAVE A REGISTRATION IN THE FIRST PLACE? THAT'S THE WAS IT DID SOMEONE SECOND MS.. HARVEY'S NO MR. MINSKY'S I'M JUST DISCUSSING OKAY. IT'S SO DID YOU SECOND HER. NO I SECOND AND MS. HARVEY'S RIGHT. OKAY,
