B. School Fees

Board Meeting Minutes Page 3 January 28, 2014

V. ACTION ITEMS

A. Approval of A Resolution of the MCS Board in Opposition to a Statewide or Alternate Charter School Authorization or Oversight (Tab 2)

Dr. Gilbert read proposed resolutions in opposition to statewide or alternative charter school authorization or oversight and in opposition to a voucher program in Tennessee. (See resolutions.) Mrs. Rainier moved to approve both resolutions (Action Items A and B) as presented and read aloud by Dr. Gilbert; Mr. Barrett seconded the motion. The motion carried by acclamation.

B. Approval of A Resolution of the MCS Board in Opposition to a Voucher Program in Tennessee (Tab 3)

VI. REPORTS/INFORMATION

A. Audit Report

Mr. Dell Crosslin of Crosslin & Associates presented the booklet titled “Communication with School Board” to Board members. He reviewed letters to the Board detailing the parameters and extent of the audit. He pointed out that there were no exceptions, no significant findings or material deficiencies found, and this was a clear opinion. There were no fraud or illegal acts. The district was in compliance with governmental rules and regulations. On page 63, there was an isolated error in that money was requested prior to being spent. This was low risk and considered a simple error that was caught and corrected very quickly. Management is working on a procedure that will prevent the incident from happening again. This was not a material exception. Mr. Campbell asked where the budget’s expenditures exceeding revenue came from. Mr. Anderson replied from fund balance. Expenditures were in part due to the purchase of buses. This is the last year that the district has funding available through Race to the Top, which does fund approximately 2.5 positions through RTTT; however, the district will be looking at the budget for next year due to RTTT going away. The district contracts out the cleaning of the district buildings to GCA at a cost of $900,000, and he also explained that ESP was not in the red as what the audit shows is the projected budget to actual. The existing General Purpose fund balance is $6 million. Timing is an issue as one cannot predict actual property and sales tax revenue. The district will not be receiving growth money this year. The district has contracted with Crosslin & Associates for at least the past seven years. Mr. Anderson thanked Interim Finance Director Beth Prater, and his staff--Marisa Loomis, Rachel Blum, Becky Sally, Dena Thomas, Jo Lasater, and Finance Secretary Pam Holden—for their hard work during the audit process.

Board Meeting Minutes Page 4 January 28, 2014

B. Technology Update Mr. Boshers stated that the rollout of the new technology has begun by providing teachers with their computers first. He referred to the document provided to the Board titled “MCS Technology Upgrade” for a more detailed report of the process that is taking place. Laptop carts have been installed with the combined efforts from the maintenance department and the technology staff. Fifth grade laptops are first to be distributed so they will have time to work with them before the writing assessment in February. Dr. Gilbert stated that this year’s writing assessment will be administered online but will not affect the district’s accountability. Students are now receiving the laptops, so they will begin the process of becoming familiar with the keyboarding, etc. By having the exposure this year, the district will be ready next year for this type of assessment. Dr. Gilbert stated that the new technology is allowing the district to immerse students in technology. Teachers will be able to keep their Apple computers through May to help during the transition. Mrs. Hawkins stated that students have just received laptops so instruction on keyboarding will begin. However, keyboarding has been taking place in the classrooms, so she does not see teachers panicking. This year will be a learning experience. All teachers have their computers, have Windows 8, and access to Microsoft 365. Training will take place during the rest of the year, such as FASTT Math, Type to Learn, etc. The DELL representative applied for and received a $25,000 grant, which will be used to provide training. Lisa Trail also applied for and received a $5,000 grant for professional development. One teacher per grade level will be trained during the summer and will be the trailblazer for that grade level. Dr. Brown pointed out that the district is not just exposing students to the technology but is immersing the students in technology. Mrs. Louis explained that the writing assessment will be administered by giving the students one passage with an hour to complete, then a 30-minute break, and a second passage administered with an hour to complete. This will not affect anyone’s status this year. Mrs. Hawkins stated that this is practice for the PARCC assessment.

C. Report on Excellence in Education Celebration Foundation Chair Doug Young reported that the Excellence in Education Celebration honoring the Dr. Sydney and Mrs. Liz McPhee was a success. The event netted $90,000. Last year, the Foundation provided $35,000 in grants to teachers and $19,000 in parity funds to the district. He thanked the committee members and trustees who worked so hard to make the event a success, and Lisa Trail, Leslie Eatherly, and Greg Lyles. He also thanked the John Pittard students for their excellent performance and the JPE parents for the decorations.

D. Construction Update (Tab 4) Mr. Anderson stated that the district is addressing some HVAC issues at Hobgood. The new west elementary school is moving forward with the roofing to begin. Pictures were

Board Meeting Minutes Page 5 January 28, 2014 provided to the Board. The estimated completion date is July, 2014. Fencing is complete at the shop, Northfield, Siegel, and MNE. Following discussions with Police Chief Glenn Chrisman, the fencing at The Discovery School is on hold. The central office reroofing is taking place but has been hindered by weather. The architect drawings for the foundation work at the Discovery School are basically done. An update will be provided when the project is ready to bid. The district is rebidding the MNE/P exterior doors project, as the district is trying to see if the installation work can be done in-house. Different surface applications are being evaluated for replacement of the playground rubber surface at Siegel due to temperature restrictions.

E. Budget Review Calendar (Tab 5) Mr. Anderson provided the Board with the budget development timeline for 2014-2015 that allows the completion of the budget prior to the May 1 deadline to present the budget to the City. The Board was given a document on which they can provide input prior to the process beginning. In response to Mrs. Rainier, Mr. Anderson stated that the current year is the last year to receive Race to the Top funding. Mrs. Phillips asked that the Board be emailed information regarding the positions funded through RTTT. Mr. Anderson stated that as indicated on the document, he suggested the window of April 2-12 for the Board to schedule a budget meeting. In response to Mr. Campbell’s question regarding moving Discovery to Bellwood, Mr. Anderson stated that he and staff are working daily on the projected costs and process of making the moves that will take place between now and the beginning of the next school year. Mrs. Phillips suggested that the Board might wish to meet more than once to work on the budget.

F. Personnel Update (Tab 6)

G. Monthly Revenue and Expenditure Report (Tab 7) Mr. Anderson reported that the Board has completed 50% of the fiscal year. The district is in the red by $2.7 million this year compared to $3.3 million last year. Revenue collections are at 43% compared to 38.2% last year. Expenditures are at 46.2% compared to 44% last year. The district is in good shape.

H. Attendance Report (Tab 8) The attendance percentage is at 95% compared to 97% last month; however, there is no report of any epidemic illnesses in the district. Pupil teacher ratios are: K-3, 19.11; Grade 4-6, 20.02. Attendance increased by ten students over last month.

VII. OTHER BUSINESS Mrs. Smith thanked teachers and staff who are outside in this cold weather helping with drop-off and dismissals at schools.

Board Meeting Minutes Page 6 January 28, 2014 Mrs. Phillips stated that Donald Whitmore did an excellent job reciting Martin Luther King’s speech on the latest Murph show and encouraged everyone to watch the segment. Board members thanked the schools for the very nice gifts, posters, letters, books, etc., they received from faculty and students in recognition of Board Appreciation Week.

VIII. ADJOURNMENT There being no further business, Chair Wade adjourned the meeting at approximately 7:40 p.m. _____________________________ Director of Schools

MINUTES

MURFREESBORO CITY BOARD OF EDUCATION SPECIAL CALLED BOARD MEETING--

POLICY WORK SESSION Tuesday, February 11, 2014

6:00 p.m.—Council Chambers ATTENDANCE Board: Chair Mary Wade, Jared Barrett, Butch Campbell, Nancy Phillips, Nancy Rainier, and Collier Smith. Absent: Andy Brown and Council Liaison Ron Washington. Staff: Director Linda Gilbert, Gary Anderson, Sheri Arnette, Lea Bartch, Caresa Brooks, Shavon Davis-Louis, Kim Frank, Karen Hawkins, Greg Lyles, and Lisa Trail. Others: Staff Attorney Kelley Baker and Principal Don Bartch.

ORDER OF BUSINESS

I. CALL TO ORDER BY BOARD CHAIR Chair Wade called the meeting to order at approximately 6 p.m.

II. BOARD POLICY REVIEW

For Discussion:

BO 49—Appointment of Board Members to Committees (New Policy) Mrs. Baker provided the Board with a new version of BO 49 titled “Executive Committee.” She pointed out that this policy details the duties of the Executive Committee consisting of the Board Chair and Director of Schools in items 1-8. She stated that all of the duties set forth are in state statute, copies of which were attached. The Executive Committee consists of the Board Chair and Director of Schools, with the Board Chair being the Chair of the Executive Committee. She reviewed the duties of the Executive Committee as indicated on the proposed policy. She noted that the financial aspect of advertising for bids and letting contracts is delegated to the finance department. Mrs. Baker pointed out that at the request of Mrs. Wade, she added as number nine an additional responsibility: To appoint Board members to various committees as the need arises. In response to Mrs. Smith’s questions, Mrs. Wade stated that she does perform some duties, but some are delegated to finance, checks are signed electronically, documents are

Board Meeting Minutes Page 2 February 11, 2014 provided to her that would need her signature, and she contacts Dr. Gilbert if there is a question or she is in need of additional information. The policy as presented follows the language of the state statutes. The agenda is done as indicated. Board has input for the agenda, and the Chair is asked for approval. Mrs. Smith asked that the following be added to number nine: …and to promptly report the appointment to the rest of the Board. She also suggested that a number 10 be added to address communications with the Board relative to the items in this policy. Dr. Gilbert explained that the financial report to the Board each month appears to cover most of the items in terms of Board members being notified. Mr. Anderson added that the district follows the procurement rules of the State of Tennessee and City government in bidding, advertising, etc., which the Board approves through the budget process, and the Board Chair and Director of Schools sign off by the automatic process. Mrs. Baker added that if a contract is over $25,000, the Chair has to also sign off on the contract. If a contract is under $25,000, the Director signs off. This procedure is in compliance with the City’s procurement policies. Mrs. Smith asked that number three be reworded to: To meet with the director of schools… Following further discussion, Mr. Barrett requested that the Board Policies indicating that financial duties are delegated be listed as cross references. Mrs. Phillips stated that the appointment of a board member to a committee that involved the Director of Schools could prove to create an issue if a Board member were not appointed to a committee they wished to serve on. She moved that the responsibility of appointing board members to committees be the Board Chair’s with input respected and valued from the Director of Schools. Mr. Barrett seconded the motion. Mr. Campbell stated that this is the first time the Board has seen this policy and with the attached T.C.A. information, he believes the Board should wait to address this proposed policy until they have had time to study the information. This would assure they do not take action that would conflict with that information. Mrs. Rainier asked what committees are being referenced. It was noted that the Foundation, ESP Advisory, Preschool Advisory, Family Resource Advisory, textbooks committees, and school naming committees are approved by the Board. Mrs. Phillips withdrew her motion, and Mr. Barrett as second agreed. Mrs. Baker stated that the Director would be protected under the immunity laws for the State of Tennessee for elected officials. Mrs. Phillips asked that the Board be provided with a list of the Board members who have served on committees and the names of those committees in the past two years.

Board Meeting Minutes Page 3 February 11, 2014 Mrs. Baker explained that the Board can add additional duties to the Executive Committee, and the Executive Committee can delegate those duties to staff. Mrs. Baker stated that she will take suggestions for the policy and bring it back to the Board at the next meeting.

PER 10—Payroll Deductions (Proposed Revision) Mrs. Baker explained that she added revisions to PER 10 based on state and Federal law in lines 70-81, T.C.A. §36-5-501(i) and 15 U.S.C.A. §1674, that stipulates that an employer cannot use wage garnishment as a basis for the discharge of the employee or any disciplinary action against the employee.

STU 58—Interscholastic Athletics (Proposed Revision) DELETE

This does not apply to our school district. So the existing STU 58 will be brought back to the Board for approval.

STU 63—Head Injuries (New Policy)

Mrs. Baker explained that STU 63 is also required by state law and is referred to by the legislature as the “concussion” law. School systems that have youth athletics must adopt a concussion policy. The state law is very specific about what the policy must include, and districts must follow the regulations that have been developed by the Tennessee Department of Health and use forms also developed by them to educate coaches and forms to use to educate parents and athletes. They also provide training documents for parents, coaches, and officials. Mr. Campbell asked who are classified as registered officials, and does the district have someone at the games qualified to determine if a student has a concussion. Mrs. Baker replied she did not bring the state statute that constitutes what a registered official is. She can get that. He stated that he is concerned about who is going to take care of the students. Mrs. Baker stated that the officials and coaches (volunteer or paid) must go through the training, and parents must receive literature that puts them on notice of the statute, what constitutes a concussion, seeking help, etc. In response to Mr. Barrett’s questions, Mrs. Baker stated that parents must sign the appropriate forms or the student will not be allowed to play. This also explains the liability that falls to the parents. The policy applies to volunteer as well as paid coaches. The district does not have an assigned healthcare professional at ballgames.

Board Meeting Minutes Page 2 February 11, 2014 Dr. Gilbert asked that Board members who have questions about the sports program, email her and she will get them answers to those questions.

III. REVIEW OF FEBRUARY 25, 2014 DRAFT AGENDA

Dr. Gilbert stated that in preparation for the Overall Creek report at the February 25 Board meeting, Mr. Bartch and Mrs. Trail have information to share. Mr. Bartch reported that the school colors will be gold and purple, and they are going to be the “Otters.” Otters like a clean environment, clean water, etc., so will fit well with the school’s initiative. Mrs. Trail shared the logo in several forms, and provided the Board with an Overall Creek t-shirt.

36 Criteria for Payroll Deductions 37

38 The primary purpose for payroll deductions is to provide a service to employees. Payroll 39 deductions may be approved by the Director of Schools, subject to approval by the Board, 40 provided the following conditions are met: 41

42 Tax Sheltered Investment programs: 43 Tax sheltered investment contributions will follow the compliance guidelines 44 set forth in the MCS 403(b) Plan Document as required by the Internal 45 Revenue Service to maintain tax-deferred status for all accounts. 46 47 Insurance Programs: 48 Fifteen (15) participants to begin this program 49 Ten (10) participants to maintain this program 50 51 Other Programs: 52 Fifteen percent (15%) of eligible employees to begin this program 53 Ten percent (10%) of eligible employees to maintain this program 54 55

Beginning date for payroll deductions shall be with the September payroll. 56 57

Compliance with maintenance standards will be reviewed annually in July by the payroll 58 department, and failure to meet the standard will be reported, and the company or agency will 59 have one year to meet the minimum requirement or make other arrangements with the 60 participants for payment. 61

62 These policies may be reviewed and amended by the Board at any time, and changes in 63 requirements should allow for sufficient time for participants and the company or agency to 64 attempt to work out alternative solutions for payment. 65

66 All employees will be informed annually of the companies and agencies for which deductions 67 are currently being made. 68 69 State law authorizes wage assignment of an employee's earnings for child support and 70 alimony. State law does not allow the employer to use the assignment as a basis for the 71 discharge of the employee or any disciplinary action against the employee. See T.C.A. § 36-72 5-501(i). 73 74 MCS will comply with state and federal laws when an employee's earnings are subject to 75 garnishment or tax levy. 76 77 Legal References 78 79 T.C.A. §36-5-501(i) 80 15 U.S.C.A. §1674 81

INJURIES Reviewed/Revision Adopted:

This policy applies to school youth athletic activity. “School youth athletic activity” means a 1 school or local education agency organized athletic activity where the majority of the 2 participants are under eighteen (18) years of age, and are engaging in an organized athletic game 3 or competition against another team, club or entity or in practice or preparation for an organized 4 game or competition against another team, club, or entity. 5 6 The Murfreesboro City School Board, working through guidance approved by the Tennessee 7 Department of Health adopts the following guidelines and other pertinent information and forms 8 as approved by the Tennessee Department of Health to inform and educate coaches, school 9 administrators, youth athletes and their parents or guardians of the nature, risk and symptoms of 10 concussion and head injury, including continuing to play after concussion or head injury. 11 12 The Murfreesboro City School Board shall require annual completion by all coaches, whether the 13 coach is employed or a volunteer, and by school athletic directors of a concussion recognition 14 and head injury safety education course program approved by the Tennessee Department of 15 Health which shall include the Centers' for Disease Control and prevention concussion signs and 16 symptoms checklist which must be used by a licensed health care professional, coach or other 17 designated person making a determination as to whether a youth athlete exhibits signs, symptoms 18 or behaviors consistent with a concussion. The Tennessee Department of Health’s concussion 19 recognition and head injury safety education course program is available on the Tennessee 20 Department of Health’s web site for any school to access free of charge. The program shall 21 include, but not be limited to: (i) Current training in recognizing the signs and symptoms of 22 potentially catastrophic head injuries, concussions and injuries related to second impact 23 syndrome; (ii) The necessity of obtaining proper medical attention for a person suspected of 24 having sustained a concussion; and (iii) The nature and risk of concussions, including the danger 25 of continuing to play after sustaining a concussion and the proper method and statutory 26 requirements that must be satisfied in order for a youth athlete to return to play in the athletic 27 activity. 28 29 The Board shall require that, on a yearly basis, a concussion and head injury information sheet be 30 signed and returned by each coach and athletic director to the Director of Schools prior to 31 initiating practice or competition for the year. 32 33 The Board shall require that, on a yearly basis, a concussion and head injury information sheet be 34 reviewed by all youth athletes and an athlete's parent or guardian. The information sheet shall be 35

signed and returned by the athlete's parent or guardian, prior to the youth athlete's initiating 36 practice or competition to confirm that both the parent or guardian and the youth athlete have 37 reviewed the information and understand its contents. The information sheet shall include, but 38 not be limited to: (i) Written information related to the recognition of symptoms of head injuries; 39 (ii) The biology and the short-term and long-term consequences of a concussion written in 40 layman's terminology; (iii) A summary of state board of education rules and regulations relative 41 to safety regulations for the student's participation in extracurricular athletic activities; and (iv) 42 The medical standard of care for post-concussion participation or participation in an 43 extracurricular athletic activity. 44 45 The Board shall maintain all documentation of the completion of a concussion recognition and 46 head injury safety education course program and signed concussion and head injury information 47 sheets for a period of three (3) years. 48 49 The Board shall establish as policy the immediate removal of any youth athlete who shows signs, 50 symptoms and behaviors consistent with a concussion from the activity or competition for 51 evaluation by a licensed health care professional, if available, and, if not, by the coach or other 52 designated person. In determining whether a youth athlete suffered from a possible concussion, 53 the centers for disease control and prevention's concussion signs and symptoms checklist shall be 54 utilized. 55 56 The Board shall establish as policy that a youth athlete who has been removed from play shall 57 not return to the practice or competition during which the youth athlete suffered, or is suspected 58 to have suffered, a concussion and not return to play or participate in any supervised team 59 activities involving physical exertion, including games, competitions or practices, until the youth 60 athlete is evaluated by a health care provider and receives written clearance from the health care 61 provider for a full or graduated return to play. This provision shall not apply if there is a 62 legitimate explanation other than a concussion for the signs, symptoms or behaviors observed. 63 After a youth athlete who has sustained a concussion or head injury has been evaluated and 64 received clearance for a graduated return to play from a health care provider, then a school may 65 allow a licensed health care professional, if available, with specific knowledge of the youth 66 athlete's condition to manage the youth athlete's graduated return to play based upon the health 67 care provider's recommendations. The licensed health care professional, if not the youth athlete's 68 health care provider, shall provide updates to the health care provider on the progress of the 69 youth athlete, if requested. 70 71 Excluding health care providers, all licensed health care professionals, performing any of the 72 functions required by this part, shall receive training in the evaluation and management of 73 concussions. Each such licensed health care professional shall, at a minimum, complete the 74 National Federation of State High School Association's (NFHS) training course on concussions 75 in sports or review the CDC Concussion Toolkit for Physicians and shall also complete 76 additional training as may be required by the department. 77 78 _________________________ 79 Legal Reference: 80 81 T.C.A. § 68-55-502 82
