2 DR. HOLLEY: Good evening, ladies and

1 In addition to executive sessions announced
2 at the Legislative Meeting of December 20th, 2017, the
3 board met in executive sessions on January 8th, 2018,
4 January 17th, 2018, and immediately before this
5 Legislative Meeting to discuss various personnel
6 matters that may include, but are not limited to,
7 administrative vacancies and positions opened and
8 closed.
9 Finally, at the executive session
10 immediately before this Legislative Meeting, the board
11 discussed student discipline cases that involved
12 violations of various portions of the Code of Student
13 Conduct. The board does not vote at executive
14 sessions.
15 We will begin first this evening with the
16 Committee Report on Education that is before you,
17 submitted by Miss Sylvia Wilson, chairperson, and her
18 committee. The report includes agenda items 5.01
19 through 8.18.
20 If you would please turn to the agenda item
21 8.18, I would like to give you the student suspension,
22 transfer and expulsion numbers for this month.
23 41 students suspended for four to ten days.
24 26 students expelled out of school for 11 days or
25 more.
5
1 There were no items pulled for further
2 discussion at Agenda Review. Are there any questions
3 or comments on the Committee Report on Education at
4 this time that were not answered at Agenda Review?
5 Mr. David May-Stein?
6 MR. MAY-STEIN: Thank you, Dr. Holley. We
7 will be pulling item No. 8.16.
8 DR. HOLLEY: Thank you, Mr. David
9 May-Stein.
10 Mrs. Kennedy?
11 MS. KENNEDY: Thank you, Dr. Holley.
12 Prior to last week's meeting, I requested
13 an update to the MOU for 6.05 because it -- it
14 actually says about the fee, will it be invoiced in
15 October 2017 for the full amount, and it also is
16 showing one teaching artist, da da da, through
17 2017/2018 school year, which is good, through
18 26 weeks. But since this contract isn't starting
19 until January 25th, and we were supposed to get an
20 updated MOU with an invoice date that was more
21 accurate.
22 MR. MAY-STEIN: Mrs. Kennedy, can you
23 repeat your question, please?
24 MS. KENNEDY: Okay. The invoice -- or,
25 excuse me, the MOU that's attached to this one shows
6
1 an invoice date of 2017 -- of October 2017 for the
2 full amount, and -- which considering the contract
3 approval isn't even starting until this meeting, that
4 was supposed to be changed that the invoice would
5 happen based on -- for us to approve.
6 MR. CARTER: Mrs. Kennedy, can you state
7 which agenda item you're talking about?
8 MS. KENNEDY: Oh. Okay. It was 6.05, I
9 thought I said that. I'm sorry, Mr. Carter. 6.05,
10 the Steeltown Entertainment. All right? so the
11 operating period is January 25th, 2918 through
12 June 29th, 2018. And it was agreed when I made the
13 request that the MOU had to be updated because the
14 invoice date was not appropriate.
15 MR. MAY-STEIN: Mrs. Kennedy, I will have
16 to look into that. That was supposed to be corrected.
17 I apologize for that not being corrected. I will
18 follow up with that.
19 MS. KENNEDY: Thank you.
20 Question. Mr. Weiss, if we're voting on --
21 how can we vote on this if the contract -- if the MOU
22 is wrong? I'm a little -- I'm uncomfortable.
23 MR. WEISS: I mean, Mr. May-Stein has
24 stated that it would be corrected. I think the action
25 of the board reflects that correction. And the
7
1 document will be not be executed until it's corrected.
2 MS. KENNEDY: Thank you. So for the
3 purpose of the vote, then I'll accept that. Thank
4 you. Thank you.
5 Thank you, Mr. May-Stein.
6 Thank you, Mr. Weiss.
7 Thank you, Dr. Holley.
8 DR. HOLLEY: Are there any other questions
9 on the Education portion of our Legislative Meeting
10 for the Pittsburgh Public Schools?
11 If there are no further questions, do we
12 have a motion and a second for a roll call vote on the
13 Committee Report on Education?
14 MS. WILSON: So moved.
15 MS. WRENN: Second.
16 DR. HOLLEY: Mr. Weiss, may we have a roll
17 call vote on the Committee Report on Education?
18 MR. WEISS: Mr. Carter?

20 MR. WEISS: Miss Edwards?
21 MS. EDWARDS: Yes.
22 MR. WEISS: Miss Falls?
23 MS. FALLS: Yes.
24 MR. WEISS: Mrs. Kaleida?
25 MS. KALEIDA: Yes.
8
1 MR. WEISS: Mrs. Kennedy?
2 MS. KENNEDY: Yes on the report as a whole.
3 I need to abstain on 8.01 because my employer is part
4 of the original list that's being amended.
5 And my "yes" for 6.05 is based on the
6 explanation that Mr. Weiss just gave us, that it will
7 not -- the MOU will not be contracted until it's
8 revised with correct dates.
9 Thank you.
10 MR. WEISS: Mr. Udin?
11 MR. UDIN: Yes.
12 MR. WEISS: Miss Wilson?

21 Business/Finance that is before you, submitted by
22 Mr. Kevin Carter, chairperson, and his committee.
23 This report includes agenda items 9.01 through 12.08.

25 board that item 10.19 is being pulled. Item 10.19 is
9
1 being pulled.
2 Thank you, Dr. Holley.
3 DR. HOLLEY: Thank you, Mr. Joseph.
4 Are there any questions or concerns on the
5 Business items?

9 MS. KENNEDY: So moved.

20 items No. 16.01 and item 16.02 for the month ending
21 December 31st, 2017. Are there any questions or
22 comments on the reports?
23 Mr. Joseph?
24 MR. JOSEPH: I just want to call everyone's
25 attention to the Financial Statements. Due to our
12
1 year-end closing activities, there will not be any
2 Financial Statements until March. So that means for
3 the next two months, including December, we won't have
4 any Financial Statements for December, January or
5 February until the March board meeting due to our
6 year-end closing activities.
7 Thank you.
8 DR. HOLLEY: Thank you, Mr. Joseph.
9 Item 17. -- I'm sorry.
10 MS. FALLS: Does the same apply for the
11 Controller's Report?
12 MR. JOSEPH: Yes, the same applies for the
13 Controller's Report.
14 MS. FALLS: Okay. Thank you, Mr. Joseph.
15 Thank you, Dr. Holley.
16 DR. HOLLEY: You're welcome.
17 Item 17.01 is a New Business item, 6 to 8
18 mathematics and secondary advanced level mathematics
19 textbook adoption. Are there any questions or
20 comments on this item?
21 I want to take this opportunity to thank
22 the supervisor for mathematics for coming in and
23 giving us -- giving some of our board members some
24 more information on the mathematics curriculum and
25 providing mathematics books for us to look at before
13
1 this -- for our review. Even though some of that
2 material I didn't understand, but we still want to
3 thank you for that opportunity.
4 If there are no -- are there any questions
5 or -- any further questions or comments?
6 If there are no further questions or
7 comments, may we have a motion and a second for a roll
8 call vote on the New Business item, 17.01?

5 DR. HOLLEY: Yes.
6 MR. WEISS: The item is approved.
7 DR. HOLLEY: Thank you, Mr. Weiss.
8 Are there any announcements to be brought
9 before us this evening that do not require a
10 legislative vote?
11 Miss Falls?
12 MS. FALLS: Thank you, Dr. Holley.
13 I've been a little amiss from not being
14 able to attend my schools in the past couple months
15 due to some health issues. But I do want to say that
16 I've been in touch, and they're doing a lot of great
17 things.
18 But as usual, I do want to give our thanks
19 to our military, past, present and future, and I think
20 we need to keep them in our thoughts and prayers.
21 Thank you, Dr. Holley.
22 DR. HOLLEY: Are there any other
23 announcements?
24 Mrs. Kennedy?
25 MS. KENNEDY: Thank you, Dr. Holley.
15
1 First, I'd like to thank everybody in the
2 district who was responsible -- who was involved in
3 these nice gifts that we received. And I'm thrilled
4 to have a new tote bag that was decorated by pre-K
5 students. I -- it's gorgeous, and I love it already.
6 So I'd like to thank everybody.
7 Next, I have -- I want to address some
8 stuff based on some rumors and untruths that are
9 flying around.
10 So last month, I included a suggestion in
11 my remarks to cut travel. I suggested sending one
12 person instead of multiple people to meetings and
13 conferences, unless there was a requirement to send
14 multiple people. Just because someone in the media
15 decides to follow up on my suggestion by investigating
16 district travel does not mean I alerted the media. I
17 received a call from the media. I even declined to
18 talk on camera when initially contacted.
19 The travel reports are public. Anyone can
20 review them online in BoardDocs. They are posted in
21 the Agenda Review meeting material every -- every
22 month. All right? A member of the media or anybody
23 else, for that matter, may choose to review public
24 information posted in BoardDocs at any time.
25 All board policies are also posted in
16
1 BoardDocs. Part of Policy 005 covers travel by school
2 board directors. It states: School directors, a non
3 member secretary of the board, and board solicitors
4 shall be reimbursed for necessary expenses actually
5 incurred as delegates to any state convention or
6 association of school directors held within the
7 Commonwealth, or for necessary expenses actually
8 incurred in attendance authorized by the board at any
9 other meeting held within the Commonwealth or at an
10 educational convention out of state. All such
11 expenses should be itemized and made available for
12 public inspection at the next succeeding meeting of
13 the board. No member should be reimbursed for more
14 than two such out-of-state meetings in one school
15 year. Such expenses shall be reimbursed only upon
16 presentation of an itemized verified statement except
17 that advanced payments may be made upon presentation
18 of estimated expenses to be incurred.
19 This policy does not make any exceptions
20 for board officers or official representatives to
21 various groups. It also does not make any exceptions
22 for trips paid for by a grant or another outside
23 source. My guess is this policy is one reason why
24 past board presidents did not have any one board
25 member representing the board on more than one
17
1 organization or committee that required out-of-state
2 travel.
3 Since the KDKA reports aired, I have
4 received a lot of positive feedback from parents,
5 teachers and members of the community who would prefer
6 to see the money reallocated to the classroom. The
7 feedback is being sent to me both directly and
8 indirectly, and for people I've never heard of. All
9 right?
10 Meetings can be held via teleconference or
11 video conference instead of sending people in person.
12 News flash: This district was using video conference
13 as a tool long before Skype and Facetime made the
14 capability even easier. We do not need to send
15 multiple people to a meeting or a conference in most
16 cases. Many conferences will sell videos and
17 materials of the sessions.
18 Just last fall, Miss Falls returned from
19 the annual Pennsylvania School Board's Association
20 Conference and shared the URLs with the rest of the
21 board so we could view the sessions.
22 I have asked many times in the past how
23 information will be shared after district staff
24 members return from professional development and/or
25 conferences. Usually, I hear the information will be
18
1 shared with other staff members in their school
2 building, but I rarely hear the information is being
3 shared with colleagues district-wide. Why not share
4 all the relevant information with people across the
5 district? If a meeting is important enough to attend,
6 it is surely important enough to share the information
7 with people across the district.
8 I am calling for the board and the district
9 to immediately start decreasing travel by using
10 technology to participate in meetings remotely when
11 possible, and to only send one or two people on any
12 one trip that must be attended in person.
13 Explanations justifying additional expense of sending
14 more staff to a meeting or conference should be
15 required before travel is approved by the board.
16 Thank you.
17 DR. HOLLEY: Mrs. Wilson?
18 MS. WILSON: Hi. I wanted to -- thank you,
19 Dr. Holley.
20 I wanted to recognize that Montessori is
21 having a month of power. They've been inviting people
22 to speak every morning over announcements and sharing
23 their stories of maybe how they came in their careers
24 or just something personal about themselves. The
25 students are listening, and then they write a little
19
1 synopsis, a little bit of the students, and they post
2 something on their doors every day. I thought that
3 was a wonderful use of -- integration of what the
4 children are listening to and how they -- adapting
5 that to what they're learning in their classroom and
6 also into their writing.
7 I also want to recognize the Westinghouse
8 alumni, who always are coming out to help Westinghouse
9 whenever possible. Westinghouse is currently
10 rebuilding their band, their marching band, due to a
11 fact that they lost a teacher, and they're rebuilding,
12 and the Westinghouse alumni group have come out and
13 performed when a band was necessary. And I just want
14 to tell everyone how much I appreciate their support
15 for their school. And they are definitely Bulldogs
16 forever.
17 Thank you.
18 DR. HOLLEY: Dr. Hamlet?
19 DR. HAMLET: Yeah, I just want to make sure
20 that we set the record straight to understand the
21 facts around travel.
22 So when we count travel -- and I spoke to
23 the particular reporter about this -- we're not just
24 talking about sitting on the beach having Mai Tais.
25 This is work. Understand where we're coming from.
20
1 We're not going to stay and learn and grow sitting
2 here in the vacuum in Pittsburgh. There are external
3 and internal opportunities for professional
4 development that's a healthy mix based on adult
5 learning processes and theory. That's understood.
6 You can't learn something if you don't go somewhere
7 and learn and grow and collaborate with others, as
8 well.
9 But I will say this: Our budget currently
10 right now, our travel budget which is PD, conferences,
11 required re-certification and professional development
12 is .06 percent of a $640 million budget. Of that,
13 .04 percent is out of the general fund. Our
14 benchmarking -- external benchmarking, which the
15 investigative reporter didn't bother to do -- if
16 you're going to do an investigation, investigate. If
17 you are asked a question of my benchmarking other
18 school districts, 1 percent of their budget is
19 dedicated to travel and professional development. So
20 we're well below where we need to be, because I think
21 we're very strategic in our approach to how we want to
22 shape and grow our people in the Pittsburgh Public
23 Schools.
24 Also, we have a strategic plan.
25 Restorative practices, positive behavior supports and
21
1 intervention, learning new curriculum, understanding
2 the appropriate pedagogy, instructional strategies.
3 We need to understand from ourselves in the district
4 and learn something new and grow from others outside
5 of the district, as well.
6 So I think we're very strategic in our
7 approach, and also pulling back and scrutinizing where
8 our travel is. But also understanding that the notion
9 of school improvement is remiss without professional
10 development and growing your people. And I will
11 always invest in people in our programs on a regular
12 basis.
13 Thank you, Dr. Holley.
14 DR. HOLLEY: Thank you, Dr. Hamlet.
15 Mrs. Wilson?
16 MS. WILSON: So sorry, I forgot something.
17 We were -- we're being recognized as board members,
18 and we appreciate that, and we appreciate that the
19 Early Childhood Centers decorated bags. And that
20 reminded me. I'm sorry, I forgot. I meant to say
21 this.
22 We recognize and thank all the people who
23 retire throughout the year. However, a special
24 recognition to Mr. James Saunders, who has been with
25 Early Childhood for -- I don't know -- umpteen years,
22
1 and just the fact that they helped us out and that the
2 Early Childhood was highlighted today, I wanted to
3 give a special shout out to Mr. Saunders for all his
4 many, many, many years of dedication in the Early
5 Childhood Programs in the district. So thank you,
6 Mr. Saunders.
7 DR. HOLLEY: We also want to make a -- I
8 would like to make a -- not a recommendation, but a
9 shout out to the superintendent for representing us,
10 the district, very well at the -- last week at our --
11 at a conference held by Representative Ed Gainey at
12 the Hosanna House, a wonderful facility in
13 Wilkinsburg. He made presentation to several of the
14 state representatives on the issues of supporting
15 public school education. We were the highlight of the
16 conference. So I want to thank Dr. Hamlet for that
17 outstanding presentation.
18 DR. HAMLET: Thank you, Dr. Holley.
19 DR. HOLLEY: Are there any other
20 announcements?
21 If there are no more announcements, may I
22 have a motion and a second to adjourn?
23 MR. CARTER: So moved.
24 MS. KENNEDY: Second.
25 DR. HOLLEY: All those in favor, please
23
1 signify by saying aye.
2 (Thereupon, there was a chorus of ayes.)
3 DR. HOLLEY: Opposed?
4 (No response.)
