IX. REPORT ON ACTION ITEMS BY THE SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS – None
 
X. REPORTS OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS
 
Mr. Havens extended congratulations to Mr. & Mrs. Blankenberg on the birth of their third son.
 
A. ANNUAL REPORT • 2006-2007
 
         
Mr. Havens presented the annual report for the 2006-2007 school year for review and consideration by Board of Education (copy filed in clerk’s agenda file, this meeting). He noted that the report was discussed in detail at the workshop session on goals and objectives on June 25, 2007.
He directed special attention to several items for additional review and discussion, as follows:
Grade 4 – English-Language Arts & Math Exams
Top priority is planned in this area in 2007-2008 to achieve the 90% goal of two year’s ago.
Mr. Nicholson asked if the concern is among only fourth grade students or if it extends to other grade levels as well. He asked if the dip in achievement is specific to grade four tests or if it will re-occur as the children advance a grade. Mr. Havens stated that the largest amount of data is available among fourth graders; additional data is needed for younger grade levels. He added that emphasis is planned on each individual student who did not reach the achievement goals.
Grade 8 - English-Language Arts
State-wide, eighth grade students did not report high achievement results on these exams. Local students continue to show improvement in this area and rank third in results among schools in neighboring Monroe County. Staffing changes due to departures are also a concern in this area to insure continuity for preparation of students for the exams; replacement of staff in language arts is increasingly more difficulty as the number of available applicants shrinks.
Mr. Nicholson asked what occurs if a permanent replacement is not hired at the start of the school year. Mr. Havens stated a substitute could fill the position until a replacement is hired or the district could hold the incumbent for thirty (30) days. He added that it is better for students to start the school year with the teacher they will have for the entire school year.
Grade 8 –Biology & Earth Science • Regents’ Exams
Both the passing rate and the large number of students who take these exams, many as eighth graders, The number of eighth graders enrolled in the courses continues to increase; staff members are anxious to learn how these larger enrollments might impact the achievement rates.
                  
Mrs. Lyke expressed caution that the enrichment aspects of the option for Regents’ exams for eighth graders could diminish if the courses and exams are offered to a larger number of students.
Mr. Schultz asked if eighth graders are required to maintain a specific grade average to remain in the course. Mr. Havens stated that the students are allowed to remain in the course as long as they maintain interest in it.
Mr. Robusto applauded the increased number of eighth graders and asked what major factor is responsible for the increased course enrollments. Mr. Havens stated that the encouragement of the staff and principal is the largest incentive for students to enroll in the courses.
Mr. Havens noted the high passing rates last year in earth science (80%) and biology (91%) and that 90% or more of students passed the biology Regents’ exam in 6 of the past 7 years. He added that these are the first Regents’ exams taken by students and helps them realize their ability to achieve success. In 2007-2008, an experimental approach of two (2) sections of in biology is planned in grade 8.
Mrs. Lyke asked how many science exams the students must pass; Mr. Havens and Mrs. Cox provided details.
Mr. Schultz asked what biology test data at the high school represents in light of the eighth grade exams; Mr. Havens provided details.
Mrs. Lyke cited the need to challenge students to increase achievement whenever possible.
Regents’ Exam – Math Course A
Extensive efforts by teachers in curricula updates and use of new teaching styles in this area resulted in a 30% mastery rate and 95% passing rate.
Mrs. Lyke noted that she had spoken with Mrs. Emison, high school math chairperson, and learned details about the transition to more traditional math courses by the NYS Education Department.
Regents’ Diploma Rate
Mr. Havens noted the substantial improvement is this rate to 80%; the goal remains 90%. He noted the emphasis by staff members to reach this goal.
College Bound Rate
Mr. Havens noted that the 90% goal of college bound seniors* was reached for the past two (2) consecutive years and extended thanks to Mrs. Holly Armitage, an assistant principal at the high school, and the counseling staff for their efforts and Mrs. Michelle Scheik, director of student services, who convinced several students with special educational needs to pursue a regular high school diploma and complete the college application process.
(*) Remainder reflects 5% each for military services and the workforce.
Mr. Griswold noted the value of tracking this data each year and asked if (1) there is a record maintained on priority items of each year and (2) priorities from prior years are suspended, concluded or continued as areas of focus, emphasis and data analysis change.
Mr. Havens noted that the school district continues to enjoy a favorable position in terms of available resources which allows continuation of prior programs as well as addition of others. Changes in priorities may occur in the amount of time or resources directed toward a specific program or replacement of one program for another. He cited the decision to replace the Hopeworks program, based on data on its effectiveness, with a drug and alcohol prevention program and use of funds not needed for an additional section of kindergarten last year for additional staff training in reading recovery.
Mrs. Cox, assistant superintendent for instruction, noted that constant efforts are made to achieve a balance in use staff and financial resources between existing programs and areas of improvement or emphasis as they occur.
 
B. SCHOOL IMPROVEMENT PLAN • 2007-2008
 
 
Mr. Havens presented the district-wide school improvement plan for 2007-2008 for review and consideration by the Board of Education. (copy filed in clerk’s agenda file, this meeting).
He asked Mrs. Cox to review highlights of the goal areas included in the plan, viz:
 
Grades K-4 • English-Language Arts (ELA) & Math
Ø Increase mastery rates on the ELA and math state assessments by 10%
Ø Increase passing rates in ELA and math for at-risk students by decreasing the number of students earning 1 and 2 on state assessments by 25%
 
Grades 5-8 • English-Language Arts (ELA) & Math
Ø Decrease failures for students with disabilities by 50% on state assessments in ELA and math
Ø Increase mastery rates on ELA and math assessments by 10%
 
Grades 9-12 • Passing Rate on Regents’ Exams
Ø Provide all students the opportunity to take the English Regents’ exam two (2) times during their junior year
Ø Initiate the Integrated Algebra course and Regents’ exam in grade nine
 
Regents’ Exam & College-Bound Rate
Ø 85% of students will pass the Regents’ Global Studies exam with a score of 65% or higher
Ø 90% of ninth graders will pass their initial Regents’ Science exam
Ø 100% of students will have a plan placing them on track to achieve the 2-3-5 Regents’ plan
Ø 90% of graduates will apply to and be accepted by college
  
Superior, Clean & Inviting Facilities
Ø Develop a capital project which is accepted by unanimous vote of the Board of Education
Ø The proposed 2008-2009 school budget will pass by a margin of 65% or better
  
Mrs. Newman asked about the strategies included in the reading academy and what it requires of teachers; Mrs. Cox provided details.
Mrs. Lyke noted that the items outlined in both the annual report and school improvement plan reflect the evolving trend of an individual education plan for each child.
 
Mr. Havens noted that trustees will hear reports on each of the goal areas at school board meetings beginning in October.
 
C. DISCUSSION ON POTENTIAL CAPITAL PROJECT • SCHOOL FACILITIES
 
 
Mr. Havens asked trustees for consensus on the six (6) concepts for future school facilities presented at prior meetings. The areas were identified as follows:
(1) Add Space to Ontario Primary School For Grades K-5
(2) Single Campus @ Ontario Center; Add to Ontario Primary School for Grades K-5
(3) Single Campus @ Ontario Center; New School Linked to Middle/High Schools; Abandon Other Schools
(4) Single Campus @ Ontario Center; Convert Middle School to All K-5; Build New Middle School/Connect to High School
(5) Connect Ontario Elementary & Primary Schools; Add K-5 Space @ Ontario Primary School: Freewill Elementary School Stays K-5
(6) Build Entirely New K-12 Campus-All Grades/Services; New Site; Abandon Existing Schools
NOTE: Options #1 thru #5 would use Ontario Elementary School for district-wide services
               
He noted the record of discussion on these items in the minutes of prior meetings. He suggested that trustees review and discuss them to determine final action and priorities.
Mr. Nicholson asked if there is a maximum cost allowance for building aid from the NYS Education Department. Mr. Atseff explained the rated capacity criteria for regular and special education classrooms which is used to determine eligibility for building aid.
Discussion among trustees in work groups is generally summarized as follows:
Item #6 presents a political issue and is likely not to generate any community support.
A distinction was drawn between the option which trustees may personally prefer versus the option which the community would support when reviewing and consideration these alternatives.
Alternatives which include construction of new space between the middle and high schools pose issues of the best use of available land, parking, traffic flow and congestion along Route 350.
Clarification was made on projected cost savings for the alternatives noted (e.g. consolidation of facilities, programs, grade configurations and curricula); some may prompt negative community response
Consideration of safety and security issues is important in any consolidation of facilities
Consideration of a centralized campus and new K-5 space at the Ontario Center campus must consider enrollment data and the existing property/fields it might displace.
Additional considerations are loss of athletic fields and the challenges to provide continuity of architecture if a centralized, connected facility is developed along Route 350
Taxpayer support is a significant factor in determination of a final alternative.
Discontinued use of Freewill Elementary School and shift of students to new space at Ontario Center would create very large buildings
Ontario Elementary School may reach functional obsolesce for long-term instructional uses but has great potential for alternative school and community uses
Potential of functional obsolesce of Freewill Elementary School is also a factor to consider
Physical plant at Freewill Elementary School provides single floor, barrier-free access to meet all instructional program needs, HVAC equipment and general condition is good.
             
Any alternative selected must consider reaction of voters
Growth and changes in local population and the housing market will determine the best location in the school district to meet future needs for K to 5 instructional programs
By consensus, Alternative #6, supra, was eliminated, and Alternatives #3 & #4 were combined
Based on the origin of the discussion of these alternatives, it is important not to overlook or forget the long-range goals, educational structure and direction of the school district and presentation of options which would receive community encouragement and support
A substantial amount of time for public input along with sharing and distribution of information about the alternatives is required before a final alternative is selected
Consideration of the pros and cons of a single, K-12 campus at this time would provide trustees, school officials and the community with insight into long-range options for future capital improvement projects.
Creation of a K-5 facility at Ontario Primary School could meet program and facility needs but would not result is loss of a school campus for students and parents; if Freewill Elementary School were ever closed, it would include a huge emotional upheaval to residents, families and alumni of that school
Strong justification would need to occur for any proposal to close Freewill Elementary School, including uses of technology and security issues
In the spirit of “The World is Flat,” philosophy, continued use of multiple sites for delivery of educational services is similar to the multiple, sometimes satellite sites common in higher education
Planning for short- and long-term uses and benefits of technology as well as the scope of ventilation and other basic services is essential and valuable
Current and future efforts to plan ahead for space, program and enrollment provides the opportunity to show the community that the school board is thinking ahead
If properly presented to the community, parents would begin to understand the reasons for future facility needs.
By consensus, the option to construct space to attach Ontario Elementary School to Ontario Primary School was omitted.
     
By way of summary, trustees were in agreement that Mr. Havens and the staff would provide in-depth information about Option #1 and Option # 3 & 4, combined, based on preceding discussion.
Mrs. Lyke suggested providing an update of this evening’s discussion to the trustees who are absent this evening.
Mr. Robusto noted that the U.S. Bureau of the Census develops ten (10) and twenty (20) year projections which might aid in review of remaining alternatives.
Mr. Schultz stated that there is no crystal ball to indicate when, if or how the facility and campus at Freewill Elementary School will have changes in use.
Mr. Griswold noted that a general trend does exist across the country to consolidate school districts and school facilities within those districts.
 
XI. RECESS:    8:54 p.m.

XIII. REPORTS OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS (continued)
A. REPORT ON NATIONAL WORKSHOP • INTERNATIONAL BACCALEAUREATE PROGRAM
 
  
Trustees and school officials who attended the national workshop on the International Baccalaureate (IB) program on July 12 to 15 in Chicago narrated a PowerPoint presentation on the workshops and information presented. (copy filed in clerk’s agenda file, this meeting) Trustee representatives were Mr. Schultz, Mrs. Lyke and Mrs. Newman. Staff representatives were Mr. Havens, Mr. Armocida, Mr. Pullen, and Susan Mack.
The program has 80,000 students in primary, middle and high school years in 125 countries. Concepts are presented in units of inquiry and each local district determines the units their students will address. Specific skills are expected and measured with an emphasis on inter-disciplinary learning.
The presentation also outlined training and program costs, quality control, curricula and core subject areas, site reviews by the national IB organization, application process, networking of students who earn an IB diploma, and recognition of IB credentials by college recruiters and admission offices, among other items.
 
Mr. Havens asked if trustees were interested in learning about additional IB workshops; the response was yes.
 
Mr. Griswold noted work-related visitors from Texas who were well acquainted with the IB program which is a standard in their state comparable to Regents’ exams in New York State.
 
Mrs. Lyke noted that IB programs are prevalent in the City of New York schools and expects Governor Spitzer may incorporate them in standards for schools throughout the state.
 
B. UPCOMING EVENTS
 
Trustees reviewed upcoming building-level events and activities they planned to attend.

The Wayne Central School District is required to conduct an annual fire safety inspection of all buildings owned, used, or leased by the district. The school district must file a Fire Safety Report with the New York State Department of Education. The fire inspection must be conducted between the dates of September 15 and October 31, 2007. The Fire Safety Report must be received by SED on or before November 1. A Certificate of Occupancy will be issued within thirty days of the end of the district's inspection period if the report was not filed late and if a plan for correcting violations, if any, has been filed.
 
Recommend that the board of education at the regular meeting to be held on September 13, 2007, approve the following:
 
1. Appointment of Fire Inspector
 
Recommend that Mr. Bruce Glaser, BOCES Health & Safety Specialist, be appointed as the Fire Inspector for the Wayne Central School District. Mr. Glaser is a certified fire inspector. The cost of the service is covered under our agreement with Wayne-Finger Lakes BOCES.
 
 2. Recommend that the board of education appoint Mr. Robert Miller, Director of Facilities, as the building designee. He will accompany the fire inspector during the inspection of school facilities and will be involved in the development of any district plans necessary to correct violations.
