Excerpts cover procedural opening items, discussion of the district budget and pandemic-related enrollment/staffing uncertainties, descriptions of remote learning (Google Classroom) from a high-school perspective, facility project concepts with preliminary cost estimates (e.g., about $800,000 for gender-neutral restroom conversions and about $1,000,000 for Black Box Theater renovations), and brief operational updates (absentee ballot deadline, upcoming county board check-in). The board made a motion to adjourn that carried by voice vote.

Superintendent, Board of Education, Proposition O, levy, agenda, motion carried. We wanted to look kind of on just physical safety, but also just see where there were gaps in planning, training, and security. So in the way that we're working with our staff and trying to make them partners in providing a safe school environment for our students. We wanted to find out if we had vulnerabilities anywhere within the district and offer options to improve those type of things. We did that by looking at all of our buildings and all of our campuses. We looked at, of course, all of our schools. We looked at the administrative center. We looked at our fields. We looked at our maintenance facility, that sort of thing, and looked at things like how they were physically set up, what types of security measures were in place, what types of perceived threats that staff that worked in those buildings felt that they had, where were opportunities for improvements that we could make to not just the buildings, but the staff that worked in those buildings. Superintendent, Board of Education, Proposition O, levy, agenda, motion carried. We are fortunate to have Art Bond of Bond Architects and Eric Wilson on the Zoom call with us tonight to talk a little bit about the safety study.
