“Let your intentions create your methods and not the other way around.” - - - Benjamin Franklin
Greetings from Wayne Central School District.
Below are some items of interest.
Board Meeting:
| 1.
| Wayne Wrestler Mike Patterson – State finalist Mike Patterson will be introduced at the Board meeting by athletic director Marc Blankenberg. Marc will present him with a recognition plaque.
|
| 2.
| Action Item – We had a question at our last meeting about our bus garage flag not being lit and I will report on that item.
|
| 3.
| Pouring Rights – I will be reporting on the negotiations between Pepsi and Coke for pouring rights. Pepsi offered us an $11,000 cash package. Coke had initially agreed to $23,000 per year and has increased that amount to $25,000 per year. I will be recommending to you that at our next board meeting (April 10th) the Board of Education authorize me to enter into a contract with Coca-Cola. Please see the enclosed information for your review.
|
| 4.
| Mentor Teacher Presentation – As you know, this year we began our mentor teacher program pairing up experienced retired teachers with new teachers in order to help improve their effectiveness. Marcia Standera, along with some of the other teachers involved, will be reporting on this worthwhile program.
|
| 5.
| School District Report Cards – We received our school report cards today. They are enclosed for your review. You will notice that generally we made positive improvement over the previous year’s results. However, we still have a long distance to go in order to be a school of excellence. Mr. Spring will review the reports with you. They are being released to the papers the day of our board meeting.
|
| 6.
| April Meetings – We are scheduled to meet on April 10th and 29th. We are required to have a meeting on April 24 in order to vote on the BOCES budget and candidates. Our final board meeting in April is a three-board meeting hosted by the Town of Ontario. Town Supervisor Dick Clark says they are unable to meet the 29th and he hopes to be able to change the meeting to the 24th. We need to make some decisions about this.
|
| 7.
| Budget Discussions - We will continue our discussion about the budget. I will pass out possible cuts to you and review the process we will use in public session, though no names will be mentioned. I will then be looking for direction from you. Do you wish us to continue to cut down to the 4% or is there some other higher number that you might be satisfied with? The reason I wish to discuss this is I don’t want to bring the administration through the torment of cutting additional teachers in order to reach that 4% only find out that indeed we are not going to go that far. Making these kinds of decisions is very demoralizing for people who are very close to their staff. Please understand we will make those decisions and we will do absolutely what the board requires of us but I don’t want them to do things that they don’t have to do.
|
| 8.
| Items for Board Approval – Wayne has written the bus reserve resolution which is enclosed in your packet. We also need to appoint a fire marshall. Please see the enclosed letter from Mr. Atseff. Our substitute rates were presented at our last meeting. We have once again enclosed a chart that compares our rates to other areas. It also shows our starting salaries for each area. Board of Education members asked, “If we are trying to maintain good staff and pay people decent salaries, and if we stepped up to do that in our teachers negotiations, our CSEA negotiations, and are doing it in our administrative unit, do we want to pay our substitutes so little?” I thought that was a very good question and I felt we needed to have additional conversation about it. Mr. Atseff and Mr. Pearles met to discuss this. As you can see, they have revised their recommendations upward to better reflect area districts.
|
| 9.
| Policy – Policy Committee Chair Mr. Triou will report on the committee’s progress.
|
Newsletter:
| 1.
| State Budget – My weekly Superintendent newsletter has no good news on a state budget. The groups still haven’t agreed upon how much money will be available for the budget (commonly called the avails). It is possible a late April bedget will be agreed upon. I don’t believe that will happen as the revenues continue to fall short of even the Governor’s conservation predictions.
|
| 2.
| BOCES – Today BOCES has asked if we would be interested in retaining just the elementary ED program. I don’t know if that means moving all the children to OE or keeping it as is. I’ll let you know when I have more information.
