I hereby nominate (Please Print) _George Gebhardt ________________________________________________ for the “Unsung Bulldog Hero Award”.

A. Other Public Comments - None

4. ACADEMIC FOCUS A. Hillcrest

Bruce Martin and Patti McKenna presented on the positive incentive programs at Hillcrest:

School store: students earn “Hill Bills” as incentives for academics and behavior. The bills can be spent at the “store”, which is parent staffed and sponsored by the PTA. They have items from $1 to $20. Some kids save up until they have enough for the bigger items, and some kids spend them as soon as they get them.

Positive Paws are incentives for good deeds to others. Staff write the child’s name on a certificate and twice monthly one name per grade level is drawn to receive the award.

Stars Program targets at-risk kids. The staff sits down and identifies students who may be at-risk due to home environment, lack of friends or any number of things. The child’s name and picture are then put on a star, and staff pick one child to work with. They talk with the child at least 3 minutes, at least 3 times a day to engage the students. Having someone show they care has made a tremendous difference. The results speak for themselves.

Accelerated Reader Program is a computer based program for improving comprehension and reading skills. Students are tested to see what level they are to begin with and then they get points for the books they read. The top reader right now has 500 points, and several others have over 200 points. A book like “Charlotte’s Web” is worth 4 points. The students have read over 8 million words, over 7,000 books.

Walk/Run Marathon gets kids outside and moving. After the first 10 miles they run/walk, they receive a lanyard with a 10 mile card; then for every 10 miles they walk/run after that, they receive a 10 mile card. When they receive enough 10 mile cards to make up a marathon, they get a marathon card and a prize. Students are limited to 3 miles a day (which is 21 laps around the track). So far this year students have logged a total of 13,000 miles.

B. High School Bill Yester spoke about the career/tech programs in relation to the Carl Perkins grant. The metals program and the technology program each receive some Carl Perkins grant money. They are working on making the Consumer & Family Program eligible. Each of these programs is linked to SOCC, which is a requirement for Carl Perkins grants. Bill, Barney McGrady and Suzy Callery are working on North Bend’s Carl Perkins plan, which will go in a part of a consortium through the ESD. They are also working on aligning reading, writing and math with the career and tech classes.

Sherri shared the revenue and expenditure as of the end of April. No changes from last month.

Reminder of the Budget Committee meeting on Wednesday, May 13, 7:00 p.m., in the North Bend Council Chambers.

The District just received $11,000 for the lighting project (BETC money)

High Cost Disabilities grant decreased by $15,000 this year, coming in at $128,000.

Sherri explained that the rules have changed on the federal stimulus money – the State Fiscal Stabilization Funds. This money is not new money – the state counted this money when they balanced the 2008-09 budget. The feds are now requiring the state to account for as federal funds. Therefore, ODE has decreased our state school funding. We will receive a separate payment on May 18 for approximately $460,000 in SFSF. We will have to account for how we spent the funds separately to the federal government. We are still waiting on reporting requirements. We accounted for the $460,000 in the general fund. ODE has assured us that we are allowed to spend the money on preserving reserves or saving teacher positions or on any expenditure allowed under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act. The prohibited uses include maintenance, vehicles, and athletics. She doesn’t know yet if any of the funds can be passed through to the charter schools. ODE is waiting on guidance from the federal government.

A. Board Meeting Minutes i. April 13, 2009 Regular Meeting ii. April 28, 2009 Special Meeting iii. April 28, 2009 Executive Session iv. May 5, 2009 Special Meeting

MOTION: I move the Board approve the Consent Agenda as presented. By: Megan Jacquot Second by: Deb Reid Vote: approved unanimously

7. NEW BUSINESS DISCUSSION

A. Video Streaming of Board meetings by Jay Noggle BJ Hollensteiner Jay Noggle explained to the Board that what he would like to do is have video recordings of Board meetings to put onto a website for people in the community to view. He has put an audio recording of the May 6 meeting on a website he has (www.weloveournorthbendschools.com). The Board felt that Mr. Noggle should put a disclaimer on his website stating that the site is not affiliated with North Bend School District. There would need to be some legal agreements regarding content, etc. Superintendent Hollensteiner will work with Mr. Noggle on the legal ramifications and documents. The video would need to be on the district’s website and the district should have control over the content.

B. Board Participation In OSBA Lighthouse Study Deb Reid

Megan and Deb have graduated from the Leadership Oregon Program. OSBA has adopted the Lighthouse Study philosophy and wants to get it started in Oregon. They are looking for three districts to receive free training. The only costs would be travel expenses for their trainers to come here. The training is one half to one day per month. This philosophy fits with what BJ has brought to this district. After unanimous nod of approval, BJ was asked to call OSBA and let them know North Bend is interested in pursuing this training. That does not commit the district. OSBA will send down a trainer to talk further to the Board.

8. NEW BUSINESS ACTION

A. Donation of van to Boys & Girls Club BJ Hollensteiner 14 passenger Ford/Carpenter brown bus #E162584 was declared surplus and advertised for sale last September and we were unable to sell. Minimum bid was $1,000.

MOTION: I move the Board approve the donation of the van to the Boys and Girls Club.

By: Bob Adams Second by: Megan Jacquot Vote: approved unanimously

B. Loan to the North Bend School Foundation BJ Hollensteiner Page 11

I met with the North Bend Foundation Board this last week and we made two motions, one to add Karen Helland and Rachael Summerville to the Foundation Board and one to request a loan from

the North Bend School District to support start-up costs. Start-up costs include opening a bank account, setting up a post office box, setting up and funding the first fund raiser. I recommend the loan be in the amount of $5,000 and terms be set so it is paid back by 2012 with the provision that it can be extended if needed.

The group also talked about various fund raisers as well as listing names of other people in the community who may want to serve on the Foundation Board. Each member has been assigned names to call. The next meeting is set up for June, 2009 at 1:15 at the District Office.

It was suggested that the two boards meet together yearly to discuss

MOTION: I move the Board approve the loan of $5,000 to the North Bend School Foundation with the provisions specified in the Promissory Note.

By: Carol Salisbury Second by: Bob Adams

After further discussion, Deb Reid moved to amend the above motion to have the loan come out of 401 monies. The motion to amend was seconded by Megan Jacquot.

Motion passed unanimously

C. Adoption of Amendment to the Contracts for Superintendent, Administrators and Confidential Staff BJ Hollensteiner

It was explained that this is a one-year extension to the Superintendent’s contract and a two-year extension to the Administrators’ and Confidential staff’s contracts. The amendment is for steps to be given to those who are at that point, no percentage increase in salaries, a decrease in the district’s contribution for insurance, and a 10 day reduction beginning with the July paychecks. There is a reopener clause in case the funding comes in better than anticipated.

MOTION: I move the Board adopt the amendments to the contracts for the Superintendent, Administrators and Confidential Staff as presented.

By: Tom Nicholls Second by: Carol Salisbury Vote: approved unanimously

D. RESOLUTION 08-15 - RESOLUTION IN SUPPORT THE EXISTING STRUCTURE AND FUNDING LEVELS FOR ESDS

The Resolution opposes the redistricting of ESDs and the cutting of funding if they don’t redistrict. The restructuring would merge South Coast ESD with Douglas ESD and all services would be directed out of Roseburg. Douglas ESD has a very different service model than does South Coast ESD. Each district would appoint one of their Board members to be on the ESD Board, and the other Board positions would be appointed by the district-appointed members.

MOTION: I move the Board approve Resolution 08-15 as presented.

By: Bob Adams Second by: Megan Jacquot Vote: passed unanimously

Copies of the Resolution will be sent to Senator Verger, the South Coast ESD Superintendent and others.

DEB REID

E. NOMINATION OF LEGISLATIVE POLICY COMMITTEE MEMBER Megan has voiced an interest in the Legislative Policy Committee. It is a

great opportunity for her to gain experience and influence across the state

and with the legislature and I think she would be perfect for the

committee. It is a 2 year term starting January 1 and nominations close

May 29.

MOTION: I move the Board approve the nomination of Megan Jacquot for the Legislative Policy Committee representing Region 8.

By: Deb Reid Second by: Tom Nicholls Vote: passed unanimously The nomination form will be sent to OSBA on May 12.

11. BOARD COMMENTS (Brief comments of items of interest)

Carol thanked Deb and Megan for their time and input in Leadership Oregon.

Tom talked about the ProStart Culinary Program. There are 37 schools in Oregon taking part in the program. Students getting a certificate from ProStart will be eligible for scholarship money to further their schooling.

Tom thanked the administrators and confidential staff for being willing to step up and take the cuts. If all three bargaining groups do the same, we can pretty much buy back the first two “put-back” lists.

Carol commented that all three groups have come up with creative ways to do things. And the important thing is that, despite the economic woes, good things are happening in our schools. The schools are the social hub of our community, and the kids are getting a great education.

Carol commended the high school students for their coin drive to help the students at Coquille High. There is a competition between North Bend and Siuslaw to see who can donate the largest amount.

Two new school board candidates who are starting write in campaigns for the position no one had run for were present and introduced themselves: Michael Parker and Kurt Brecheisen.

Megan announced that the kindergartners have been rounded up.

3. PRESENTATION OF IOWA LIGHTHOUSE STUDY Guest Speakers: Renee Sessler and Betsy Miller-Jones, OSBA

The focus of the pilot program is on student achievement.

We would need 100% Board attendance (Board team includes the Superintendent).

Very time consuming, with training for a minimum of 3 hours, often an entire day,

every month to six weeks for the first 12-18 months, and follow up for the next 6-12

months. The study group needs 5 years for data collection and analysis.

Costs to the district would be approximately $3,000-$4,000 for the whole time.

Expenses to be paid would include mileage, lodging, and meals.

There are 11 modules, some of which would need to involve building administrators.

Betsy shared a draft contract for the Board to review before making a decision.

They are presenting to a total of 5 districts, three of which they are hoping to have

sign on for the study.

OSBA will need an answer by mid-June.

Code: JGAB

Adopted:

Use of Restraint and Seclusion

The Board is dedicated to the development and application of best practices within the district’s

educational/ behavioral programs. It is the intent of the Board to establish a policy that defines the

circumstances that must exist and the requirements that must be met prior to, during and after the use of

restraint and/or seclusion as an intervention with district students.

Definitions

“Physical restraint” means the restriction of a student’s movement by one or more persons holding the

student or applying physical pressure upon the student. “Physical restraint” does not include touching or

holding a student without the use of force for the purpose of directing the student or assisting the student in

completing a task or activity.

“Seclusion” means the involuntary confinement of a student alone in a room from which the student is

prevented from leaving. Seclusion does not include “time out.”

“Time out” means the removal of a student for a short period of time to provide the student with an

opportunity to regain self-control, in a setting from which the student is not physically prevented from

leaving.

The use of physical restraint and/or seclusion is only permitted as a part of a behavioral support plan when

other less restrictive interventions would not be effective and the student’s behavior poses a threat of

imminent, serious physical harm to the student or others.

Except in the case of an emergency, only staff current in the required training in accordance with the

district-designated physical restraint and seclusion training program will implement physical restraint or

seclusion with a student In an emergency, physical restraint and/or seclusion may also be used by a school

administrator, teacher or other school employee [or volunteer] as necessary to prevent a student from

harming his/herself, students, staff or others or from causing damage to district property. The use of

physical restraint/seclusion under these circumstances is only allowed so long as the student’s behavior

poses a threat of imminent, serious physical harm to themselves, others or to district property. Any student

being restrained or secluded within the district, whether in an emergency or as a part of a plan, shall be

constantly monitored by staff for the duration of the intervention. Any room used for seclusion of a student

must allow staff full view of the student in all areas of the room and be free of potentially hazardous

conditions such as unprotected light fixtures and electrical outlets.

The district shall utilize the Oregon Intervention System (OIS) training program of physical restraints and

seclusion for use in the district as required by state regulation, the selected program shall include:

behavioral support, prevention, de-escalation and crisis response techniques. Any program selected by the

district must be in compliance with state and federal law with respect to the use of restraint and/or

seclusion.

restraint and seclusion, such as long-term care and treatment programs, youth detention education

programs, and youth corrections education programs, are not subject to this policy.

An annual review of the use of physical restraint and seclusion, including a review of all district cases

involving restraint and/or seclusion, shall be completed to ensure compliance with district policies and

procedures. The results of the annual review shall be documented.

The district shall investigate all complaints regarding the use of restraint and/or seclusion practices

according to the procedures outlined in Board policy KL and KL-AR - “Public Complaints.”

The superintendent shall develop administrative regulations to carry out the requirements set forth in this
