| C. | WORKSHOP SESSION FOR GOAL SETTING | |
| ● July 9, 2002 | ||||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Havens reminded trustees of the workshop session on Tuesday, July 9th from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the RG&E Manor House on Lake Road and distributed a draft agenda for the day. |
| D. | PROPOSED REVISIONS TO SESSION DAY CALENDAR ● 2002-2003 SCHO | |
| OL YEAR | ||||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Havens presented a suggested revision to shift the January 3rd staff training day to June 30th on the 2002-2003 session day calendar adopted on April 24, 2002. | ||||||||||||||||||||
| This proposal was discussed with the Wayne Teachers' Association and the administrative council and is recommended as a way to allow a full week of holiday recess and provide time to collect and review student achievement data at the conclusion of the school year. He stated that he will present this proposal for formal consideration at the next meeting. | ||||||||||||||||||||
| E. | STUDENT QUESTIONS – None | |
| F. | DISCUSSION ON RETIREMENT INCENTIVE PLANS | |
| Mr. Havens presented the topic of retirement incentive plans for teaching and non-teaching employees for review and discussion by the Board of Education. | ||||||||||||||||||
| He noted that both incentive plans were reviewed in terms of eligible employees who might submit letters to retire under the plans and the costs to the school district for the incentive. The conclusion was that the school district would not realize any savings by adoption of either plan under criteria established by the state. | ||||||||||||||||||
| Mrs. Lyke noted recent news media reports that the Rochester City School District has adopted the incentive plans and asked how a district that large could realize savings. Mr. Pearles noted that the city school district has a more lucrative local incentive plan than the state plan and Mr. Atseff noted that the large number of lay-offs and reductions planned by that district could also have an impact on those savings. The difference in cost between incentives and unemployment insurance might also make it worthwhile for persons to retire rather than leave through workforce reductions. | ||||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Triou asked if the cost estimates for local impact of the incentive differ any from prior discussions. Mr. Wyse asked Mr. Havens to review the data available. Mrs. Lyke asked if the costs would extend over five (5) years. Mr. Havens provided details of costs over a five-(5) year period. | ||||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Robusto noted that the original premise for adoption of retirement incentives is to save money and it appears the new incentive plans will add costs. The combined cost for this proposal and for the five (5) year payment plan for the incentive adopted in 1999 equal appx $200,000 in each year’s budget. | ||||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Robusto asked what the total amount of reductions was made to the proposed 2002-2003 school budget; Mr. Havens stated appx. $200,000. | ||||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Robusto asked what happens if the school board decides not to adopt the incentives. Mr. Havens stated that persons who have not already announced their retirements through the local incentive provided by collective bargaining agreements would likely continue working. | ||||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Wyse noted that when the incentives were offered in 1999, the number of eligible persons who retired was greater than original estimates and if that same scenario occurred this year, the costs would exceed current estimates. | ||||||||||||||||||
| Mrs. Lyke asked how many employees over age 55 are eligible; Mr. Pearles provided details. He noted that both the age and years of service of an eligible employee are factors in cost impact of an incentive. | ||||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Wyse noted he needs to know the cost of incentive plans prior to making a decision. | |||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Griswold noted the uncertainty of projecting the number of eligible employees who might elect to participate in the incentive plans and the subsequent difficulty in projecting costs. He asked about the potential net cost savings from retirements if the incentives were adopted; Mr. Havens provided details. | |||||||||||||||||
| Mrs. Lyke asked where the break even cost occurs; Mr. Havens provided details. | |||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Robusto noted that lack of savings and potential loss of experienced staff members were both reasons not to adopt the incentives. Mr. Havens noted that adoption of the incentives would serve as a reward for long-term employees. Mr. Pearles noted that this incentive plan differs from prior state incentives with no specific amount of savings required. | |||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Robusto asked about the option for targeting positions for an incentive; Mr. Havens provided details. | |||||||||||||||||
| Mrs. Lyke noted that staff morale and appreciation for a job well done by employees are both reasons for adopting incentive plans. | |||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Griswold asked what deadline is set for local school boards to adopt the retirement incentive plans. Mr. Pearles stated July 26th. | |||||||||||||||||
| Mrs. Lyke stated that it is not fair to employees eligible for incentives or to administrators who would need to conduct interviews to fill vacancies that would occur to delay a decision. | |||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Havens stated that his recommendation is to adopt a targeted incentive plan. | |||||||||||||||||
| Mrs. Lyke offered a MOTION to adopt the retirement incentive plans of the NYS Teachers’ Retirement System (TRS) and the NYS Employees Retirement System (ERS) not including the option to allow eligible employees to also qualify for any local retirement incentive plans and not targeting any positions. | |||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Anderson asked if an eligible employee could elect either the state or local incentive. Mr. Havens stated yes, if they met the qualifications. | |||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Griswold stated that the indication from estimates available at this time is that the cost to adopt the 2002 state retirement incentive plans and continue payments on the l999 incentive would result in a direct increase to the property tax levy of appx. 2.0% each year. | |||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Triou asked how many years remain in the five-year payment for the l999 incentive; Mr. Atseff stated three (3). Mr. Pearles noted that payments for the 2002 incentives would not begin until the 2003-2004-school budget. | |||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Wyse noted his concern if the school board approved the costs of the incentive plans having eliminated and reduced positions in the 2002-2003 budget. | |||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Triou noted that there is the potential for additional impact on the property tax levy if the Board of Education presents a capital facilties referendum for voter consideration this fall. | |||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Griswold offered a MOTION TO TABLE the MOTION offered by Mrs. Lyke. 8 Ayes, 0 Nays, 1 Absent (Mr. Ratcliffe). | |||||||||||||||||
| XV. | EXECUTIVE SESSION (Personnel) | ||||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Griswold offered a MOTION to adjourn the meeting,at 8:26 p.m., for an executive session on personnel matters pertaining to specific persons. 8 Ayes, 0 Nays, 1 Absent (Mr. Ratcliffe), Carried. | |||||||||||||||||||
| XVI. | RECONVENE: | 8:42 p.m. | |||||||||||||||||

Entire Policy New, Presented by Policy Committee 4670
Presented for Second Reading on July 10, 2002
TRANSFER OF STUDENT CREDITS TOWARD HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA
A student who enters the school district from another state or country or another school in New York State is considered a transfer student. Students who have been receiving home instruction and who enroll in the school district are also considered as transfer students.
It is the responsibility of the high school principal to evaluate the transcript or other records of a transfer student at the time of enrollment into the high school and to award the appropriate units of transfer credit towards a high school diploma.
However, when a student transfers from a registered New York State high school into our high school, the high school principal must transfer all credits awarded by such registered New York State high school.
In addition, the high school principal, after consultation with relevant faculty members, may award transfer credit for work done at other educational and cultural institutions and for work done through independent study. The decision should be based on whether the student’s record indicates that the work is consistent with commencement level learning standards in New York State and is of comparable scope and quality to that which would have been done in the school awarding the credit.
Transfer students must meet all the units of credit requirements for a high school diploma. While principals have considerable discretion in reviewing a student’s record, they cannot waive the units of credit required for a diploma. The assessment requirements a student must meet to earn a high school diploma are based on the year in which the student entered grade nine for the first time in New York State or in an out-of-state or out-of-country school.
Transfer students who are exempted from taking specific New York State assessments must have their transcripts and permanent records so annotated.
Eligibility requirements for interscholastic athletics by transfer students shall be in accordance with the rules enumerated in the most recent handbook of the NYS Public High School Athletic Association (NYSPHSAA).
