No, it's it's for intermediate 916. So, that's it probably does not go to Century College because I would imagine we lease that position that that building, but it's more along the lines of the buildings that 916 owns.

I just want to say that um as the representative to the 916 board, I I see firsthand all of the work that um happens, and I really commend that commend the district for what they do. I also want to commend our special ed director and what we do internally. We work closely with 916 to ensure that if we can keep the students in district we do and then for those who need the supports of 916 then we work with 916 and I I think we we just do a really nice job on both ends of that and just really want to call that out.

I don't have any questions, but as a member of the facilities sub committee Adam it was very thorough and well thought out and and uh I think everything was explained well, so I would be in recommendation of moving forward with approval.

So, funding for this comes through a mixture of levy and aid. Um and so we got about $930,000 in levy dollars that come into the district uh depending on the formula. And then about uh I think we're about $280,000 of aid that uh flows through.

I have two. I happen to be sandwiched between two school districts that passed huge levies and building bonds and are now looking at they have very large deficits that their school board is dealing with. Can you go back up two slides? Yeah. So, this really helps to see those numbers at the bottom. Even on our worst day, which it won't be 676, we're not looking at millions. So, when you say you're conservative and we ask so many questions, is this keeping us from not being those two districts that build new schools, pass bonds and levies, and then now are looking at huge deficits?

Well, it's a it's a great question. I I would probably start by saying, you know, when you when you're bonding for construction, that's all those funds can be used for. They can't be used for anything for any operating expense. So, um if if they have they're running large deficits, a lot of districts, which a lot of districts are, uh they're struggling with we're all struggling with increased cost pressures. Um we've done a few things to bring down some of our expenditure areas. Um I can't I can't quite speak to specifically about those two districts, but right, yeah. We're So, I'll I'll just add another piece that you know, when we look at what we're at we're adding we're adding about 10,000 square feet of space in different areas. And our only our our biggest one of our costs in personnel would be a half-time custodian and it's you know, it's very minimal.

Um Director Doman, I know last time we considered this, um there was discussion at the table regarding the State High School League's view with regard to allowing males to compete in female sports. Has there been any update from the State High School League concerning with with respect to their view on that?

Um no, I brought the topic up at multiple meetings and I've been told that it is not something they plan to address. Once there is an update, they will distribute the update via their legal channels.

Um so you were asking about I believe you're asking about when transgender students are participating in sports. And um I will just say that I I um we have to my know I have nothing has been brought to me in terms of concerns from any of our athletes or families. Um and so at this point I don't have anything to report. Um and I I guess in general I I just say that has not been something that I've I work with. And and I will say also that there a lot of issues that um happen with children and students and families that never make it to me because um our teachers and administrators work well with with uh our students to figure out how to best support all children in feeling safe and supported in our schools. So I'll just give you a very general answer because at this point nothing I have nothing specific to offer.

I mean, frankly, um their their unwillingness to address this issue and communicate to districts uh it's now it's over 12 months when this issue flies in the face of their their mission, which is to promote competitive fairness, safety of athletes, um and the fact that they continue to, you know, just sweep it under the rug, so to speak. Um I I I just wanted to see if there was any further discussion and there hasn't been and that's I I'll accept that um and I appreciate the conversation.

I guess I would offer the perspective of the opposite of that that they're not sweeping it under the rug, but they're continuing to provide a place for all of all people to participate in activities and athletics. So, it's sort of a two sides of the coin in my opinion.

I do want to um call out that um one of the policies, policy 615 testing accommodations, we uh we discussed in the policy committee to remove it as a policy, specifically because um we anything it just talks about what is required for MCA testing and that comes out in a a testing manual. Uh the board does not get involved at all in in that. Um lots of districts do not carry this as a policy. Um I was surprised to see it in there, in fact. So, um we are recommending just removing that policy because, again, um any kind of testing accommodations, modifications, all of that is written out um for districts in the the testing manuals that come regard and if there are any changes, we would follow those changes in that have to bring it back to you for a policy review.
