election of board chair and [7:45] board officers thank you everybody [7:48] next we will proceed to approve the [7:50] minutes can I get a motion to approve [7:51] the minutes from the December 17th work [7:53] session and the December 17th regular [7:56] meeting so moved second and are there [8:00] any changes to the minutes of either of [8:02] those meetings yes I I would like to [8:08] propose that the item sorry I don't have [8:12] them in front of me right here but the [8:14] item regarding personalized learning [8:16] there were some several comments from [8:19] the board that were not included in the [8:22] minutes and I would like to add that the [8:25] board did [8:27] disgust approval of this motion and [8:30] considered the implementation of the [8:36] strategic plan and the incorporation of [8:42] this motion was to I'm trying to put it [8:49] into words to to to try to clarify what [8:54] we decide what maybe it wasn't that was [8:59] discussed right so there were some [9:01] conditions but it was now it did not [9:03] change the motion but it but we did talk [9:07] about the fact that we wanted to make [9:10] sure that we were putting resources [9:11] where we felt were important for the [9:16] district so that that the motion was [9:20] passed but may be re-evaluated by the [9:24] board upon within the strategic plan so [9:29] it was a point of clarification just to [9:30] be added to the minute so it's reflected [9:32] for the public agree I think we could [9:38] add something in the comments right [9:40] right that's what I'm suggesting is that [9:42] in the comments section of the minutes [9:46] that we state that the Board discussed [9:52] implementing this well we just I believe [9:59] and my recollection could be off but I [10:02] believe we discussed continuing with the [10:05] priorities that Randy set forth and the [10:08] personalized learning goals for the rest [10:10] of this year and that we wanted to make [10:13] sure that for the goals for the [10:15] following year that we were able to have [10:17] a follow-up conversation within the [10:20] parameters of the strategic planning [10:23] process before all of those personalized [10:29] learning goals were signed off on and so [10:31] we signed off on the document itself so [10:33] we could move forward but we wanted to [10:35] make sure that it was noted that there [10:37] was the caveat that we as a board want [10:40] to have a more [10:40] holistic discussion about all the [10:43] districts plans and make sure that we're [10:45] able to have a prioritization process [10:48] and I think that's all she was asking to [10:50] be added because it wasn't reflected in [10:52] there that it was did I take you I just [10:54] wanna me try articulated that yes okay [10:58] that's my understanding too and and that [10:59] I just didn't see any comments at all [11:02] about that in them I think it'd be [11:04] pretty important to put that in so do [11:07] you have a clear understanding how about [11:11] we go offline I can but why don't we do [11:14] this so these are the minutes from the [11:16] regular board meeting correct [11:18] why don't we approve the minutes from [11:19] the work session sir I can bring back [11:21] the minutes from the board meeting at [11:24] the next meeting [11:25] there's no time requirement for [11:27] approving minutes and so that way we [11:31] know what it says rather than Sarah [11:33] trying to scramble on this so given that [11:36] we have a motion to approve both I would [11:39] recommend that we vote no and then we [11:41] get a second motion to approve the [11:43] minutes of the work session and the [11:45] tables of minutes of the regular meeting [11:46] until next month okay everybody on board [11:49] on that one all right so this is to [11:53] approve the motion is pending which my [11:56] recommendation is to vote no so all [11:57] those in favor of the current motion [11:58] vote aye [11:59] all those opposed say nay Hey all right [12:04] now can I get a motion to approve the [12:05] minutes of the work session from [12:07] December 17th 2018 [12:09] so moved any changes questions [12:13] discussions all those in favor of [12:15] approving the December 17th 2018 minutes [12:17] say aye aye any opposed motion carried [12:20] kind of a motion to table the December [12:22] 17th regular meeting minutes until next [12:24] month [12:25] so moved any questions discussion all [12:28] those in favor of tabling the December [12:30] 17th minutes until next of the regular [12:32] meeting till next month say aye aye any [12:35] opposed motion carries [12:36] great that worked okay [12:42] consent I get a motion to well first is [12:45] there anything to be removed from the [12:46] consent agenda oh and can I get a motion [12:49] to approve the consent agenda second all [12:54] those in favor of approving the consent [12:55] agenda say aye [12:56] aye any opposed motion carried [13:00] we are on to discussion which is the [13:04] board committee appointments people have [13:07] filled out our form thing sorry just for [13:12] Sarah schandle I voted in alignment with [13:14] the group every time in case it was like [13:16] a little boy [13:17] second so you animus mandamus unanimous [13:21] Thanks so folks know we won't he voted [13:25] no if it was yes you voted yes a little [13:27] puppet behind him okay so on the [13:33] committee assignments we are not redoing [13:37] associations we're not redoing school [13:40] assignments the only Association is ISD [13:44] 287 you know which Regina has agreed to [13:47] stay on for another year unless somebody [13:50] else would like to move into that spot [13:52] that'll come up for approval at the end [13:54] of January meeting in the groups meet [13:58] and confer is not affirm for approval [14:01] everything else is it looks like within [14:04] that category we have two people [14:06] interested in Edie fund otherwise we [14:10] have one person interested in each of [14:13] the categories so community ed services [14:15] advisory council is Sarah [14:17] so City Council Sarah Edie fund is the [14:21] one we have no that's Jones [14:23] so some reason yeah okay that helps is [14:32] it did say it did have your name and I [14:34] was wondering about that [14:35] okay City thing I need to know Ellen [14:39] Ellen put your name in yes [14:42] City Council's Ellen Edie fund we've got [14:45] Ellen and Matt both listed so we and [14:53] Matt you still would like to stay on EDD [14:55] fund yeah okay I would say that [15:01] consistency for the two-year term this [15:04] is good can come as well gift advisory [15:09] Ellen Insurance Sarah stepping in for a [15:12] mirror and mental health and wellness is [15:16] Erica and sack is Sarah she likes [15:22] getting up early [15:23] does that still meet like at 7:00 in the [15:24] morning 7 o'clock good seek is Erica [15:29] world's best workforce is Ellen and [15:32] Sarah those are the primary and then [15:36] going up to committees we do have we [15:38] have two blanks on schools but we're not [15:40] changing them is that just we didn't [15:42] move the name over Normandale and [15:46] the school stay the same wondering why [15:49] the names didn't move across so I think [15:51] somebody went in and populated them [15:53] thinking that it was necessary but those [15:55] don't so I I would just ignore that [15:57] reference question I have is for Amir [16:04] and Owen and Matt do you guys have [16:07] trouble making the meetings for your [16:11] school for your school because if you do [16:13] I'm happy to take another school I just [16:16] I wanted I've got Normandale and I've [16:19] been able to okay I'm picking it up okay [16:22] all right right so even though it's not [16:24] required to revisit if it's not working [16:27] for somebody who yeah I just wanted to [16:28] make sure that it was working for those [16:30] individuals that have to work although I [16:32] haven't been there but okay [16:38] I'm Cornelia at night and so I've been [16:40] in touch with their team and I usually [16:42] email and Satan eat something at a time [16:44] or not in value is usually during the [16:46] day on Tuesdays so I've been touch was [16:47] shown on their team there but I'll let [16:49] you know if I can't make them but if you [16:52] wanted more middle school engagement but [16:57] I'm comfortable I wasn't going that far [16:59] but I would be happy to help if you need [17:02] it [17:03] okay so Erica's my alternate on [17:05] everything there we go all right and [17:11] then we will this is also a topic on the [17:15] work session discussion so we can follow [17:17] up on the major committees that is a [17:21] mess the important its Michaelson I had [17:24] because it's an asterisk so that one [17:26] doesn't change mid-year right I put my [17:29] name there just to help out but then I [17:31] noticed the address asterisk and so I [17:33] know Alan and I have gone but not in in [17:37] his stud so I do think a MST is one in [17:40] which other board members can attend if [17:42] they're interested in the what's being [17:43] covered surprisingly we all have [17:46] nametags it seems like you do [17:49] I think once you attempted to sign that [17:52] they are we gonna
