Executive Director Update
Mr. Hussey noted that the first two weeks of school started very positively.
Mr. Hussey recognized the Psychiatric Social Worker, who is on campus three days a week, though we may need to increase this to five days a week.
Ms. Hussey stated that he is working with the Friends of ECR and a private donor to try to get the bleachers replaced. He is also working with a private company about bringing in portable crates to serve as new modulars.
Regarding the Unique Selling Proposition, he proposed the following: The home of academic, artistic and athletic excellence, and a place where all can succeed (all to encompass students, staff, and the community).
At the last Board meeting, Mr. Ryburn asked about the video regarding social media. Mr. Hussey noted that, when a student gets a laptop, he/she has to watch videos regarding privacy, safety, and social media awareness. He is looking into whether this should be done on a yearly basis.
Last Thursday, the Friends of ECR had more than 40 parents attend their annual meeting. And Coffee with the Principal took place this past week. ECR will send an administrator to FoECR's monthly meetings, and Coffee with the Principal will take place every other month, so that concerns can be heard and addressed.
He and Mr. Darby will work with the Finance Committee regarding the marketing position, to possibly go beyond the budgeted amount for that position. This would allow for better communication and outreach.
Of the incoming 9th graders, 57% live outside the attendance boundary.
Mr. Silverstein spoke regarding reports on social media of two traffic accidents around the school; would suggest a committee to work on the issue of parking and an overall safety program.

July 2019 Financial Update
The summary reflects a positive ending operating balance of $307,511. However, the financials had the laptop purchase included in the year end balance, but it was purchased in June for use in July, so it should be reflected in the 2019-20 financials.
The budget will be reviewed and revised in September. There were some expenditures in 2018-19 that were higher than budgeted, such as dues and legal fees.
The Fiscal Policies and Procedures will also be revised and submitted (with a redlined copy) for the Board's consideration at a future Board meeting.

The 50 Promethean Smart Panels were delivered, and there are additional teachers who have requested a panel.
Ms. Chen also noted that she would like to see greater involvement by parent groups, so they can understand the use of technology better.

C.
Discuss and Possible Approval of Bus Passes
Mr. Archibald noted that, while he agrees that this is a good concept and supports providing the passes for the benefit of the students, the Board has a fiduciary responsibility to ensure that we are aware of the total financial impact, and that any such expenditures have to be budgeted.
As to the financial impact, Mr. Hussey noted that, if we have 1,200 Free or Reduced Price Meal (FRPM) students, and we pay $24 a month full price (FRPM students may be eligible for a reduced cost of $14 per month for the passes) for every FRPM student, the total cost would be $288,000 a year (at $14 a month, it would be $168,000 a year).
Mr. Darby stated that the cost is not included in the budget; he suggested that perhaps the program could be approved for four (4) months, and then it can be reassessed.
Mr. Kofahl asked if there was any data as to the possible return on this investment. Mr. Hussey stated that, for Spring 2019, FRPM students were absent 11 days a semester and tardy 5 1/2 days a semester. For tardy students, we do not gain on ADA; but we would gain if we have them at school on time without the stressors of trying to arrange for a ride. Mr. Hussey stated that punctuality would be improved because, as shared by the Intervention Coordinators previously, students would not have to scramble to try to arrange a ride or wait for a bus driver that will allow them to ride for free. The application for the bus pass has requirements for attendance and GPA, a tardy policy can also possibly be included.
Mr. Ryburn stated that he supports the bus pass program, and that he and the entire Board are very much invested in the students and their education.
It was also noted that the amount for the Reduced Price Meal students was based on the full $24 price; if it students would qualify for the $14 monthly pass, the total cost would be reduced appropriately.
