/ Discussion Item


Title: Calendar for 2011-2012

Consideration of the School Calendar for 2011-2012

Superintendent’s Recommendation: The Superintendent recommends that the Board of Trustees approve the 2011-2012 Calendar. Background/Impact Information: Humble ISD's proposed calendar for 2011-2012 reflects the Texas Legislature's requirement that school districts begin the school year no earlier than the fourth Monday in August. It also takes into account long-standing preferences in our community for a two-week Winter Break, a one-week Spring Break, and ending the first semester before Winter Break. The proposed 2011-2012 calendar shows a week-long break for Thanksgiving. Student attendance drops on Monday and Tuesday when the Thanksgiving holiday is Wednesday-Friday. Low attendance adversely affects the amount of state funding to Humble ISD. Families have indicated that Thanksgiving week is a time when many prefer to travel. A proposed 2011-2012 calendar was posted to the district's website from Nov. 10-30, 2010, along with a survey. Ninety percent of the almost 5,000 respondents were in favor of a one-week Thanksgiving break. The calendar indicated the last day of classes would be Monday, June 4, 2012. Respondents were not in favor of ending school on a Monday. In response to this input, the calendar was revised and posted to the district website. The revised proposed calendar includes a one-week Thanksgiving Break, a two-week Winter Break, a one-week Spring Break and holidays for Labor Day, Martin Luther King Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day and Independence Day. The first semester ends before Winter Break. Spring semester classes begin Tuesday, Jan. 3, 2012, and end Friday, June 1, 2012. The calendar includes 177 student days and 187 teacher work days, including 10 professional growth days. Fiscal Impact Statement: N/A

Title: Resolution to Declare Public Purpose Related Inclement Weather Day

Consideration of Resolution to Declare a Public Purpose regarding certain actions related to the inclement weather day on February 4, 2011, including the excuse of employee absences and continuing unaffected hourly and salary compensation for certain employees. Superintendent’s Recommendation: The Superintendent recommends that the Board of Trustees approve the proposed resolution establishing February 21, 2011 as an instructional day and determining a public purpose will be served to excuse employee absences and continue compensation for certain employees for work missed on February 4, 2011 based upon the District’s closure due to inclement weather. Background/Impact Information: The Humble Independent School District closed its operations on February 4, 2011 due to a winter storm that posed a significant risk to the health and safety of parents, students and employees of the District. The storm caused dangerous icing of area roadways and bridges that would have affected the safe travel of parents, students and employees to and from District activities. The District may not waive this missed instructional day and must make up the lost instructional time elsewhere on its calendar. The Superintendent has identified February 21, 2011 as the most appropriate day for students and staff to make up this lost instructional time. Previously, this date was a student holiday, but a scheduled work day for all employees, with limited exceptions. Certain employees, such as bus drivers and cafeteria workers, were not scheduled to work on February 21, 2011 because their duties directly relate to the presence of students on campus. Additionally, teachers and other campus-related employees and office professionals who earned enough professional development credit or flex time may have received permission from their supervising principals to “comp” out of work on February 21, 2011 with pay. These employees will now be required to work on February 21, 2011. The Superintendent requests that the Board approve the proposed resolution, which first

revises the 2010-2011 calendar to identify February 21, 2011 as an instructional day for students, and then excuses the absences and allows for the continuation of pay in the normal course for those employees who otherwise where ready, willing and able to come to work on February 4, 2011, but for the closure, and who were previously scheduled to work on February 21, 2011 or who had scheduled their comp time for that date. The Superintendent recommends that holding these employees, who would otherwise lose a day of anticipated pay, harmless will serve an important public purpose. Not only will it reinforce the prudence of ceasing district operations in times of hazardous conditions by encouraging employees to avoid travel and unsafe practices, it will have the effect of increasing overall morale. Fiscal Impact Statement: The proposed Resolution is not anticipated to have an impact on the operating budget, which did not otherwise build in inclement weather days. Budgetary Codes: Cost :

RESOLUTION TO DECLARE A PUBLIC PURPOSE RELATED TO INCLEMENT WEATHER DAY ON FEBRUARY 4, 2011

WHEREAS, the Superintendent of the Humble Independent School District ordered the

closure of all district schools and facilities on February 4, 2011, for the safety of students and staff due

to an anticipated winter storm; and

WHEREAS, Humble I.S.D. closed its schools and facilities because it must act in the best

interest of, and for the safety of, its students and staff; and

WHEREAS, through circumstances completely beyond their control, Humble I.S.D.

employees were forced to miss work at the Humble I.S.D. despite being ready, willing and able to

work; and

WHEREAS, to financially penalize employees who are acting in the interests of public safety

potentially will be harmful in the future if people fail to act in a safe and prudent manner during

inclement weather for fear of financial loss; and

WHEREAS, it will be detrimental to the best interests of the District for the District to act in

a way that may lead to unsafe conduct by its employees in future times of inclement weather; and

WHEREAS, there is a public purpose served and a benefit to the District to encourage

prudent and safe behavior during inclement weather so that employees have the best opportunity of

protecting their safety and being able to resume their duties; and

WHEREAS, there is a public purpose served and a benefit to the Humble I.S.D. to

demonstrate support of its employees, enhance employee morale and support the retention of

employees in a crucial public service; and

2

WHEREAS, the Humble I.S.D. 2010-11 school calendar and related work schedules have

been affected by the winter storm; and

WHEREAS the Humble I.S.D. Superintendent of Schools will not seek a waiver from the

Texas Education Agency to excuse this instructional day missed on February 4, 2011 and is

recommending that the official school calendar be revised so that February 21, 2011 will be

designated as an instructional day for students and staff at each District campus; and

WHEREAS, the Board believes that a public purpose exists for forgiving or excusing the

absences of its employees on February 4, 2011 due to inclement weather; and

WHEREAS, the Board believes that a public purpose exists for providing compensation

to those employees, both exempt and non-exempt, who were unable to work on February 4, 2011

but were ready, willing and able to work on that day in the normal course of their work schedule

but for the closure for inclement weather; and

WHEREAS, this Resolution is not meant to excuse the failure to report to duty on these

days by any employees who were instructed by the administration to do so or who were required

by contract or job description to report for duty, and who are emergency services personnel or

whose presence is necessary to provide for the safety and well-being of the general public; and

WHEREAS, this Resolution only applies to those employees who were scheduled to

work on both February 4, 2011 and February 21, 2011 prior to the revision of the school calendar

to identify February 21, 2011 as an instructional day; and

WHEREAS, this Resolution is not meant to exclude from paragraphs 3 and 4 below those

3

employees who had previously received written permission from their supervising principal to use

their earned professional development comp/flex time on February 21, 2011 and, therefore, were

not scheduled to go to work on February 21, 2011.

NOW THEREFORE, be it resolved by the Board that:

1. All the above-referenced paragraphs are incorporated into and made a part of this

Resolution.

2. The Board revises the Humble Independent School District 2010-2011 school calendar to

designate February 21, 2011 as an instructional day.

3. The Board finds that a public purpose exists to excuse and/or forgive the absences by

District employees who were scheduled to work on February 4, 2011 (and also scheduled to work on

February 21, 2011 prior to the calendar revision) and who were ready, willing and able to work on

February 4, 2011 but for the closure, and payment for that day in the normal course is necessary in the

conduct of the public schools as provided by Texas Education Code § 45.105(c).

4. The Board authorizes the Superintendent of Schools to excuse the day of absence of District

employees described in paragraph 3 for school and facility closures necessitated by the storm, and

pay all such employees full compensation for this day as they would have earned in the regular course

of business.

5. The Board ratifies and approves, to the extent permitted by law, all actions taken by the

Superintendent in the exercise of his discretion to protect and preserve the public property and

assets of the Humble I.S.D., and for the safety and welfare of the employees, students, parents,

4

taxpayers and other citizens of the Humble I.S.D., to the extent necessary as a result of the inclement

weather through the effective date of this Resolution.

Approved this 15th day of February, 2011.

be brought to the board for action on local policies at the March meeting. Title: Policy Update 89

Report on Texas Association of School Boards (TASB) Policy Update 89

Background/Impact Information: The District subscribes to a service provided by TASB to propose and assist with management of Board policies. This Localized Policy Manual Update 89 includes two types of policies: legal and local policies. There are a number of (LEGAL) policies that are being amended to reflect changes or clarifications to the applicable laws. These changes to (LEGAL) policies do not require Board action since they reflect laws already in effect. There are also (LOCAL) policies in this Update, which do require Board action, which are being presented for a first read at this time and will be brought to the Board at the March meeting for potential action. The local policies are board policies that implement the legal policies based upon the District's specific needs. TASB revisions to local policies in Update #89 align local practice with recent changes in legal policy or provide clarification to existing policy. The (LOCAL) policies in Update #89 are described in detail in the Vantage Points, Explanatory Notes, and other materials found in the attachments. TASB has proposed revisions to local policies CKB, EHDD and FD. TASB has reorganized section E of the manual.

Title: Tax Refunds

Consideration of Petitions for Refunds in Excess of $500

Superintendent’s Recommendation: The Superintendent recommends that the Board of Trustees approve the petitions for tax refunds. Background/Impact Information: The Texas Property Tax Code, Section 31.11(c) states “If a taxpayer applies to the tax collector of a taxing unit for a refund of an overpayment or erroneous payment of taxes and the auditor for the unit determines that the payment was erroneous or excessive, the tax collector shall refund the amount of the excessive or erroneous payment from available current tax collections or from funds appropriated by the unit for making refunds. However, the collector may not make the refund unless: (1) in the case of a collector who collects taxes for one taxing unit, the governing body of the taxing unit also determines that the payment was erroneous or excessive and approves the refund if the amount of the refund exceeds:…(B) $500 for a refund to be paid by any other taxing unit;…An application for a refund must be made within three years after the date of the payment or the taxpayer waives the right to the refund.” Detailed information and rationale for each correction or refund has been documented in the attachment. If the Board approves this consideration, Humble ISD will be in compliance with the Texas Property Tax Code. The total effect of the refund(s) will result in a reduction of total collections received of $124,821.70. Overpayments are recorded as a liability on the general ledger upon receipt and, therefore, do not cause a decrease in recorded revenue when refunded.

Background/Impact Information: The Texas Education Code Section 44.006, the Texas Education Agency Resource Guide Sections 2.10.6 and 5.3.4 and Humble ISD Board Policy CE (LOCAL), page 2, require that certain budgetary amendments be approved by the Board of Trustees. Changes to budgetary accounts in the General Fund, National School Breakfast and Lunch Program and Debt Service Fund that affect functional expenditure categories must be approved by the Board of Trustees according to TEA regulations. By approving these amendments, Humble ISD will be in compliance with both state law and local policy regarding approval of budgetary amendments. Fiscal Impact Statement: There is no change to the General Fund Balance or the Debt Service Fund Balance. The National School Breakfast and Lunch Program Fund Balance will decrease by $1,217,881.Budgetary Codes:Cost :

Title: Atascocita Springs Elementary Close Out

Consideration of Close Out and Final Payment to Tellepsen Builders, LP

Superintendent’s Recommendation: The Superintendent recommends that the Board of Trustees approve the final payment of $855,822.00 to Tellepsen Builders, LP for a total Guaranteed Maximum Price of $17,116,440.00 for the construction of Atascocita Springs Elementary. Background/Impact Information: The 2008 Bond Study Committee reviewed the need for Elementary No. 26 and recommended its construction to the Board in February 2008. The 2008 bond referendum, passed in May 2008, identified and allocated funds for the construction of Elementary No. 26. Elementary No. 26 was eventually named Atascocita Springs Elementary (ASE) in March 2010. At its December 9, 2008 meeting, the Humble ISD Board of Trustees (Board) approved Tellepsen Builders, L.P.(Tellepsen) as the Construction Manager at Risk (CM@R) for the project. Based on design development documents approved by the Board at its April 14, 2009 meeting, Tellepsen developed and proposed a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) for the project of $17,116,440.00. In July 2009, the Board approved the GMP. ASE is located in the southern section of Eagle Springs and opened in August 2010 at 113,854 square feet, accommodating 950 students in Pre-Kindergarten through Grade 5. In August 2010 representatives of the Architect, HISD Construction Department, and HISD Support Services determined the project was substantially complete. Since that time, all punch list items have been completed to HISD’s and the Architect’s satisfaction. Additionally, all close out documents have been submitted by the contractor, reviewed by the Architect and HISD Construction Department, and audited by HISD’s internal auditor with no material findings. The warranty period has commenced.
