9.0 ADMINISTRATIVE REPORTS 9.1.1 Jerry Hilfer – Falls Elementary Principal

• Enrollments: currently 663 • AYP test results: Falls Elementary has made AYP for two

consecutive years in all grade levels and groups. This is attributable to the hard work of staff, systematic changes and the RTI program. He distributed a list of the monthly activities that were conducted to aid in this effort.

• The district did not meet AYP in math in the American Indian and special education groups and Falls High School did not meet AYP in math for the Free/Reduced population and math or reading in the special educationgroup. A meeting will be held with the Northeast Service Coop to develop an improvement plan.

• Chairperson M. Hebner congratulated the staff on their success and acknowledged all the hard work put into making this happen.

9.1.2 Jeff Peura • Falls High School enrollment is currently 574.• Exploration of grade configuration: Due to classrooms in

the West End elementary being torn apart for the indoor air quality project next summer it would be an appropriate time to discuss potential reconfiguration of grade levels and explore moving grades 5-6th over into said area and grades 1-2 over to Falls Elementary. This would also facilitate use of teachers with 5-8, middle levellicenses.

• Federal lobbying report: He accompanied a group of educators to Washington to meet with legislators on education initiatives. They were able to meet with Minnesota Representatives and Senators or their designee. They emphasized four main points needed; a reduction in special education paperwork, proper funding for special education services, charter schools held to the same level of accountability as public schoolsand allow states to use alternative assessments to determine student achievement.

• Pool update & request to hire architectural services: Two starting blocks have been purchased which match what our students need to participate in other districts. These are currently mounted in the diving pool but will be moved to the lap pool upon completion of the renovation. He would like to invite several architects to review the pool and give an estimate of what the renovation will cost so that work can begin after the end of the boys swimming season. A recommendation and estimates will be brought back before the board at a later date.

• Community Conversation update; looking for opportunities for funding of a community study on ways the district and RRCC can work together to meet the needs of the community. Blandin has pledged $15,000 for an RFP for a firm to conduct this community study. .

10.0 DIRECTOR/COMMITTEE REPORTS: M. Hebner reported the Recreation Committee will be meeting on the following Wednesday.

11.0 CLOSED NEGOTIATIONS STRATEGY SESSION FOR NEGOTIATIONS WITH LOCALS 4798 AND 331 AND ON PENDING LITIGATION.Moved by S. Nordquist, seconded by D. Wagner to enter into a closed negotiations strategy session at 5:44 p.m. Motion carried by a unanimous vote.

12.0 REOPEN AND SUBSEQUENT ADJOURNMENT Moved by D. Wagner, seconded by D. Wenberg to reopen and adjourn the meeting at 6:17 p.m. Motion carried by a unanimous vote.
