| CSEA HOLIDAY GRETEINGS |
Mr. Havens noted the holiday basket available this evening from the local CSEA Unit.
| UPDATE ON SCHOOL-TOWN PROJECT AT FIRST ACADEMY APARTMENTS |
| Mr. Havens noted that NYS Senator Michael Nozzolio is working with our district, the Gananda CSD and the Town of Walworth to obtain “bullet aid” funding for renovations of a portion of the former First Academy Apartments, 3655 High Street, Walworth, for use as educational spaces as part of the town’s conversion of the former apartment complex into a community center. If approved, this funding would equal approx. $60,000 to $70,000. The structure served as Walworth High School from 1930 to 1949 and as Walworth Elementary School from 1949 to 1979. |
| UPDATE ON 2002 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT |
| Mr. Havens noted several items related to the 2002 Capital Improvement Project which are generally summarized as follows: | |||||||||||||||||||
| (1) | Meetings of building level project management teams have started to discuss design and construction issues. Copies were shared of minutes of meetings to date; additional copies will follow as meetings occur (copies filed in clerk’s files). | ||
| (2) | Preliminary investigation has determined the need to explore additional options for providing access to the stage/gym and auditorium at Ontario Elementary School to persons with disabilities. | ||
| (3) | Copies of the Gannt chart for the project were shared with trustees; larger sized copies will appear at each school to allow staff and students to view and monitor progress; the first six months of the process are most critical | ||
| (4) | In prior capital projects, one or more school trustees have served as liaisons of the school board and that perspective is not presently available. Following discussion of the role of such a liaison, Mr. Johnson appointed Mr. Wyse to serve in that role for the 2002 capital project, noting his prior experience and background of district facilities issues. | ||
| PRESENTATION ON SOLAR ELECTRIC PHOTOVOLTAIC (PV) PANELS |
| Mr. Havens introduced Edward Currier, science department chairman at Thomas C. Armstrong Middle School, to present information on the solar electric photovoltaic panels to the Board of Education. | |||||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Currer noted that the middle school was selected as one of fifty (50) schools statewide by the NYS Energy Research & Development Authority (NYSERDA) . The district will own and use a 2 kW solar electric PV system, valued at $20,000, at a fully installed cost to the district of $1,500. Mr. Currier was also named by the NYS Education Department as training coordinator for ten (10) of the schools that are participating in the project. | |||||||||||||||||||
| He extended thanks to Mr. Havens, Mr. Atseff and Mr. Armocida for their support and encouragement of this effort. | |||||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Currier narrated a powerpoint presentation on how the 2 x 6 foot solar panels installed on the middle school roof will produce energy to supply two (2) classrooms and the numerous opportunities they will provide for instruction in areas of science, math and technology. The panels become permanent equipment for the district and provide the opportunity for future expansion into energy curricula for grades K to 12. The panels collect and store solar energy for use in the existing heating system at the middle school. |
| He noted that NYSERDA selected schools in varied parts of New York State to obtain information on their use in varied weather and climate conditions (e.g. mountain areas, cloudy regions). Students and teachers will have access to a web site and instrumentation to monitor the energy production and related solar energy issues at the fifty-(50) school sites on a daily basis. | |||||||||||||||||||
| Installation of the panels is set for the south-facing roof at the middle school where an outdoor weather station and science observation area was originally planned when the school was built in 1966. NYSERDA will handle this installation at no cost to the school district and they will not penetrate the roof surface. | |||||||||||||||||||
| He added that curricular materials are under development for teachers of varied subject areas to use through the NYSERDA web site. The materials are especially relevant to the eighth grade math-science-technology unit and to district-wide energy and weather units. Teacher training is planned for summer of 2003. | |||||||||||||||||||
| As part of the project, local students must develop and conduct a survey on sources of alternative energy in local homes and businesses. They are also asked to plan and sponsor an energy open house to display and explain the uses of solar energy and the PV system. This also provides opportunities for cooperative efforts with Rochester Gas & Electric Corp. and the math-science-technology program at St. John Fisher College. | |||||||||||||||||||
| Discussion followed on the warranty and service agreements for the equipment, site visits by NYSERDA and other project site schools, and restoring the science observation area at the middle school to allow access to solar cells by staff, students and visitors. | |||||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Triou asked if the project would provide opportunity for inservice training for technicians in energy related careers; Mr. Currier stated yes. He added that selection as a project site truly represents a “feather in our cap” and provides an excellent foundation for energy-related instruction for our students. | |||||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Johnson presented a framed Certificate of Appreciation to Mr. Currier for his efforts in obtaining and managing the NYSERDA project for our district and for numerous contributions during his a 30-plus year career in our district. A round of applause acknowledged this. Mr. Currier noted he is honored to work with school personnel who are supportive of these efforts | |||||||||||||||||||
| Mrs. Lyke suggested exploration of wind power as a part of the energy project and noted recent installation of a wind tower at a business on Route 104 in Ontario. | |||||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Triou stated that he was pleased to have played a small role when he submitted our district’s name last summer for consideration by NYSERDA as a project site. | |||||||||||||||||||
| PRESENTATION ON STUDENT EXCHANGE PROGRAM W/ LOCAL ROTARY CLUB | ||||||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Havens noted that the district is working with the Ontario-Walworth Rotary Club on a student exchange program this year. Martin Stech from the Czech Republic is attending our high school and staying with local host families during the current school year and Rotarians will sponsor an exchange student from our high school in 2003-2004. | |||||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Wyze, local Rotary coordinator for the program, noted that Tessa Rounds of Walworth was selected from a field of 22 interested students and has indicated Australia, New Zealand, the British Isles, France and South Africa as preferred countries for her exchange. He added that our current student, Martin, is a member of the Czech National Water Polo Team who will compete with the mens’ Olympic Team. He is also participating in the water polo team at Rochester Institute of Technology and his ability exceeds that of college competitors. | |||||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Havens noted that a this exchange program is a component of the district’s model schools program to provide opportunities for our students to learn about cultures and students beyond the local community. He cited the planned German and Spanish student travels in 2003 as additional examples and noted that those students, as well as Miss Rounds, will share their visits with us when they return. | |||||||||||||||||||
| BUDGET DEVELOPMENT CALEN |
DAR & ENROLLMENT PROJECTIONS ● 2003-2004
Mr. Havens presented the budget development calendar for 2003-2004 for review and consideration by the Board of Education. He also shared student enrollment projections and class sizes for 2003-2004.
Mr. Atseff reviewed the varied items on the budget development calendar and scheduled presentations at school board meetings in 2003. These presentations will begin with discussion of instructional priorities based on the school improvement plan at the January 8th business meeting.
Mr. Atseff noted that the April 23rd date for consideration of trustee candidates and the proposed administrative budget for Wayne-Finger Lakes BOCES is also set as a joint meeting of the Board of Education and the Walworth and Ontario Town Boards, hosted by the school district. A brief business meeting for consideration of the BOCES items will also need to occur on that date.
| Mr. Atseff noted the agenda enclosure on student enrollment projections and class sizes for 2003-2004 and explained how building budget quotas are determined. This information is based on student data as of October 1st of each year, which also relates to the annual BEDS reports to the State Education Department and year-end state aid reports. | |||||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Havens asked Mr. Switzer to outline the process used to develop student enrollment projections. He added that his projections are within 1% of enrollments and reflect extensive documentation and data collection. Mr. Johnson extended compliments to Mr. Switzer for his comprehensive efforts in this area each year. | |||||||||||||||||||
| FINANCIAL AND BUDGET UPDATE |
| Mr. Havens introduced Mr. Atseff to present a monthly report on district financial matters. | |||||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Atseff presented reports and information through November 30, 2002 as follows: | |||||||||||||||||||
| (copies filed in clerk’s agenda file, this meeting) | |||||||||||||||||||
| (1) | Revenue Status Report: Reflects revenues compared to revenue appropriations for 2003-2004. 59% of budgeted revenues have arrived. | |
| (2) | Budget Status Report: Provides a summary of expenditures in planned expenditures year to date. He anticipates that expenses will not exceed estimates for the fiscal year. | |
| (3) | Capital Fund – 1997 Capital Project: Reflects expenses for contractors and change orders for the capital project. After consideration of a change order for flooring improvements this evening, the remaining balance in this project is appx. $218,000. Proposed renovations at Ontario Elementary School for access by persons with disabilities qualify for use of funds from this capital project. | |
| (4) | School Lunch Fund: $1500 loss is expected at this time of the fiscal year as the revenue and expense cycle are aligned; overall expense and revenues are on target with a small profit expected at year end; auditor’s report at prior meeting noted a profit of appx. $9,000 in 2001-2002. | |
| Mr. Atseff noted that he plans to continue with the same format presented this evening to report on the 2002 Capital Improvement Project. | |||||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Atseff noted that the single audit report of federal funds by the independent auditor is included as an agenda item later this evening. The report indicates no items of concern. | |||||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Johnson asked if installation of the photo voltaic cells would occur by the end of the school year or the calendar year. Mr. Atseff stated that the anticipated completion date is the end of the school year. Requests for prices from vendors are now in process and paperwork was submitted to the NYS Education Department for a project number to obtain state aid. | |||||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Wyse would like information on the vendor selected for the project. | |||||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Atseff reported on a new state mandate that requires schools to place sensors on any automated folding partitions or wall divider curtains. He added that initial estimates are $15,000 for full compliance. While not a budgeted expense, the installation will occur as required. | |||||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Johnson asked where the needs are in the district; Mr. Atseff noted the locations. | |||||||||||||||||||
| Mr. Havens noted that this requirement was prompted by an incident two years ago when a child was crushed by an automated door in a school in New York State. | |||||||||||||||||||
| STUDENT QUESTIONS |
| Brian Mc Bride, 5141 Delfa Lane, Macedon (Town of Walworth), asked what courses are planned in the new satellite center of Monroe Community College at our high school.

Re: Acceptance of Extraclassroom Activity Funds Audit
The audit of the Extraclassroom Activity Funds for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2002, has been completed by the C.P.A. firm of Mr. Raymond Wager. This audit is as required by the New York State Education Department.
The Board of Education should take action to accept this audit report at the regular board meeting to be held on Wednesday, January 8, 2003.
A copy of the audit report and an excerpt of the Board of Education minutes of the meeting when the audit was accepted must be filed with the New York State Education Department. In addition, a notice must be published within ten days that such a report is available for public inspection.
A copy of the audit has been forwarded to the building principals for their review so that any corrective measures can be identified and implemented.

Re: Bus Purchase Recommendation
The following is the bus purchase recommendation for the 2003/2004 school year:
Two (2) 66 passenger buses @ $70,329.00 = $140,658.00
Two (2) 66 passenger buses @ $68,929.00 = $137,858.00
Two (2) 28 passenger buses @ $41,780.60 = $83,561.20
TOTAL $362,077.20
The replacement schedule is based on large buses being replaced after ten (10) years, and the mini buses to be replaced after five (5) years. All the buses will be purchased from New York State contracts. We anticipate delivery to be at the beginning of the 2003/2004 school year. This allows the district to utilize the new buses for the entire school year. All bus purchases require voter approval (which will be presented to the voters at the annual school budget vote in May), and are paid for from the district’s Bus Purchase Reserve Fund.
Please let me know if you need any additional information.
