Minutes of the Regular Meeting

Independent School District 279 School Board September 18, 2012

CALL TO ORDER

A regular meeting of the Independent School District 279 School Board was held on Tuesday, September 18, 2012, in the Board Room at the Educational Service Center. Chairperson Henke called the meeting to order at 8:04 PM.

ROLL CALL

The following members were present: Board members Tammie Epley, Dean Henke, Jim Burgett, Teresa Lunt, Laura Cottington, Kim Green and Superintendent Dr. Kate Maguire.

PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE

The Pledge of Allegiance was recited, led by Director Burgett.

ACCEPTANCE OF AGENDA

Motion by Chairperson Henke, seconded by Director Epley, to accept the printed agenda. The motion carried unanimously.

AUDIENCE OPPORTUNITY TO ADDRESS THE SCHOOL BOARD

No one addressed the Board during the Audience Opportunity to Address the School Board.

SUPINTENDENT’S REPORT

Superintendent Kate Maguire shared that a regular part of her report is to share points of pride. The points of pride celebrate students, staff and community members who are contributing to the accomplishment of our mission which is to inspire and prepare ALL students with the confidence, courage and competence to achieve their dreams, contribute to community and engage in a lifetime of learning. District cabinet members provided information on student and community accomplishments of confidence, courage and competence in the areas of Achieving Dreams, Contributing to Community and Lifelong Learning. Superintendent Kate Maguire shared that the school year is off to a smooth and productive start. Maguire reported on the importance of informing community members of the good progress our district is making. Maguire communicated on the progress of increasing percentages in the areas of student proficiency, students reaching their annual growth goals, students enrolled in college-level classes

28

and the number of students who are graduating on time. District staff have identified areas where student achievement is not accelerating quickly enough and there is a plan, designed by community and staff members to help improve in those areas. The school board has unanimously agreed to place two levy questions on the ballot in November. Maguire stated the District is ensuring effective communication about the levy requests by using a two-pronged approach:

1. Staff empowered with information through levy presentations and trained teams at sites.

2. Community empowered with information through levy presentations, website information and personal visits to city mayors, administrators and civic groups.

SCHOOL BOARD REPORTS

Director Lunt reported on the September 18, 2012 school board work session. The board reviewed several measures of student academic progress. Board members learned of and reviewed of new state Multiple Measures Report for all schools in the district. Student achievement was reviewed through three components of the equitable achievement definition:

1. Proficiency – ensuring high achievement for ALL students. 2. Growth – accelerating achievement for students of color and

other underachieving groups. 3. Success in the first two components will close the

achievement gap for ALL students.

PRESENTATION: Strategy: Equitable Student Achievement Gains – Teri Staloch & Don Pascoe

Don Pascoe, Director of Research, Assessment and Accountability presented a summary of student achievement data within the Osseo school district. The academic data presents rising achievement along with continuing challenges. Performance is measured not just by averages, but looked at through multiple various subgroups. The change of student population percentages in the categories of Free and Reduced Lunch, Special Education, English Learners (EL) and various ethnic groups were noted.

MCA tests show strong growth including detailed highlights:

Scores continue to improve every year. Math proficiency went up 4.3%. Six of the seven grades tested in math posted gains. Reading proficiency went up 2.5%. Four of the seven grades tested in reading posted gains. High school proficiency increased 6.7% in reading.

MCA challenges noted and reviewed included:

Overall scores are slightly below the state.

29

Large discrepancies persist between subgroups. Many high school students did not meet MCA math target.

Don Pascoe presented detailed MCA comparisons in Math and Reading by grade, ethnic groups and 2012 growth. Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) is calculated from MCA scores. This year thirteen Osseo District schools made all of their AYP targets. Don Pascoe summarized detailed AYP and NWEA results both in Math and Reading with breakdowns by school, ethnic groups and student personal target growth percentages.

PRESENTATION: Year-End Financial Report and Student Activity Report - Kelly Benusa

Kelly Benusa, Director of Business Services, reviewed the 2011-2012 year-end data as follows. Exhibit I summarizes all revenue and expenditure amounts in all of the budgeted funds. Exhibit II summarizes the combined General Fund revenue and expenditure budget variance. The combined revenue/expenditure variance was 1.95% of total budgeted revenue and expenditures. This was within the budget planning benchmark of 2.00% for budgeted amounts. Exhibit III shows the fund balance decrease of ($1,176,959) including general/transportation fund, special grants and gift accounts. This was less than the anticipated decrease of ($8,646,740). The general/transportation assigned and unassigned fund balance increased by $700,876 from a balance of $46,217,574 at June 30, 2011 to $46,918,450 at June 30, 2012. Budget Development Worksheet This statement shows the General/Transportation Fund assigned and unassigned fund balance as a percentage of expenditures for the previous year, current year adopted budget, and projections for the next four years. This is the best measure of our overall financial health. The fund balance as a percentage of annual expenditures decreased to 23.48% from the previous year amount of 24.87%. This assigned and unassigned fund balance represents 12.2 weeks of operations. Ms. Benusa then presented the Yearly Treasurer’s Student Activity Report, including both summary and individual school reports.
