UM THIS IS KELLY NORRIS.

GOOD EVENING, EVERYBODY. MY NAME IS KELLY NORRIS. I'M EXTREMELY NERVOUS. SO PLEASE FORGIVE ME.

I'M HERE THIS EVENING TO TALK ABOUT OUR COACH STARKS FROM ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. UM THAT'S MY START OFF, SAYING THE WAY THAT OUR TEACHERS ARE TREATED ORIGINALLY DISRESPECT THE CHILDREN NEEDED UNDERSTAND THAT , OF COURSE, THEY CANNOT TREAT THEIR TEACHERS WITH SUCH DISRESPECT. UM. SCHOOL DISTRICT , YOU KNOW, NEEDS TO HELP SUPPORT OUR TEACHERS TEACHERS TO DEAL WITH A LOT OF THINGS THAT BACK IN THE DAY OR OR TEACHERS DID NOT. UM PETERSON HAD TO DEAL WITH DISRESPECTFUL CHILDREN. IN THIS CASE, THE SITUATION THAT HAPPENED UM, ARE DESCENDANTS SAID CHILD TO THE OFFICE FOR ACTING ACTING UP THAT SAID CHILD CAME BACK MADE DISTURBANCE WAS THROWING RACIAL SLURS AT THE COACH. AND ONCE THE COACH TRIED TO DANCE SITUATION, THE KID THEN KICKED OUR COACH IN THE HEAD SEVERAL TIMES AND ITS CULTURAL COMING DOWN. HE BACKED OFF. AND THEN, MR LARRY, OUR SECURITY OFFICER, YOU KNOW, HELP! CALM DOWN THE CHILD. UM MANY OF US DO KNOW SOME OF THESE PEOPLE HAVE SEEN THIS VIDEO ME AS A MOTHER AS A HAS A STUDENT THERE. UM, I FEEL HE DID NOTHING WRONG AND I FEEL THAT PEOPLE SHOULD SUPPORT HIM. LOT OF PEOPLE MIGHT HAVE TAKEN IT A DIFFERENT WAY. WE ALSO DID SIGN A PETITION. WE HAVE 4153 PEOPLE THAT SIGNED IT IN LESS THAN A WEEK. UM I JUST WANT PEOPLE TO KNOW THAT THEIR COACH IS A VERY, VERY AWESOME CLUTCH. SOME OF THESE KIDS DON'T EVEN HAVE HIM AS A TEACHER. HE WANTS BY THE HALL. HEY, GUYS, HOW YOU DOING? AND IT'S YOU KNOW , MOST PEOPLE DON'T HAVE THE TIME TO TAKE. I TALKED TO HIS CHILDREN. ONE IS CHILDREN. SHE ACTUALLY WENT TO COACH TALKING ABOUT HOW SHE COULDN'T AFFORD HER CHEERED. HE'S LIKE, YOU KNOW, I CAN HELP YOU BECAUSE STARTING A FUNDRAISER WE CAN DO THIS AND WE CAN HELP. AGAIN NOT MOST TEACHERS DO THAT THESE KIDS PROTESTED FOR HIM TWICE. THEY CHOSE NOT TO EAT LUNCH INSTEAD OF GOING TO THE ENTER THE GYM. TO PROTEST TO GET THEIR TEACHER BACK. AND THEN AGAIN ON FRIDAY, UH, THEY DID A WALKOUT, WHICH MAY BE PROUD. YOU KNOW THAT MY SON ACTUALLY HAD A VOICE, AND IT'S ACTUALLY STANDING UP FOR SOMETHING HE BELIEVES IN. I DO BELIEVE THAT COACH DESERVES HIS JOB BACK. AND IF NOT, HIS NAME NEEDS TO BE CLEAR. BECAUSE I DO BELIEVE THAT HE WAS WRONGLY FIRED, SLASHED VOLUNTARILY RESIGNED AS WHAT WAS SENT OUT.

UM. I JUST I JUST THINK THAT OUR TEACHERS NEED TO BE RESPECTED AND SUPPORTED WHEN SITUATIONS HAPPEN LIKE THIS IN THE SCHOOL YOU GOT YOU GOTTA WORRY ABOUT KIDS. THEN YOU GOTTA WORRY ABOUT YOUR KIDS. FIND ANOTHER COACHES INCIDENT WHERE SOME LADY TOLD ME THAT HER KID SO MY PRINCIPAL GET CHOKED OUT BY A CHILD. THE CHILD . AS IN THIS SET, HE GOT SUSPENDED FOR THREE DAYS LOST HIS JOB. AND I JUST DON'T FEEL THAT THAT'S FAIR. THEY HAVE A YOUNG BRILLIANT COACH GET FIRED, FIRM SAID INTO THEM. AND I'M DONE. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MR NORRIS. OUR 2ND 2ND SPEAKER

[00:25:05]

I'VE BEEN GOING THROUGH IT SINCE SEPTEMBER 1ST AND HAVE RECENTLY BEEN DENIED. BENEFITS FOR ME TO HAVE SURGERY TO FIX THIS ISSUE. I ALSO THINK IT'S DISRESPECTFUL THAT I HAVE A STUDENT WHO WAS THREATENING TO BREAK MY LEGS AND RIPPED THEM OFF MY BODY. YIKES I ALSO HAVE THIS STUDENTS THREATENED TO PUNCH ME IN THE FACE. PUNCH MY ADMIN IN THE FACE, AND THE BUREAU S THAT COMES IN IT'S A DAILY OCCURRENCE . I'VE ASKED MY ADMIN TO PLEASE GIVE ME THE CPI TRAINING SO I CAN ASSIST THE CHILD WHEN THIS CHILD BECOMES DISRUPTIVE AND VERY VIOLENT. I'D LIKE TO SAY I'VE BEEN TOLD. IT DOESN'T NEED . I DON'T NEED TO WRITE THIS MOMENT. IT'S NOT NEEDED, BUT I'M IN THIS CLASSROOM WITH THIS CHILD DAILY. WHO IS VIOLENT. I ALSO FIND IT VERY INTERESTING THAT I HAVE THREE X ADMINISTRATORS SITTING ON THIS BOARD TONIGHT, DOCTOR BLACK, YOU ARE MY PRINCIPAL FROM 2010 TO 2012. DR HAMLIN. YOU WERE MY PRINCIPAL ADMINISTRATOR BETWEEN 2013 OR 12 4013 AT BLAYLOCK AND THEN KELLY, YOUR SULLIVAN. YOU WERE ALSO AN ADMINISTRATOR AT CREEK VIEW WHEN I WENT TO CREEK VIEW BETWEEN THE YEARS OF 2015 2016. WHEN WHEN A TEACHER OR OR A STAFF MEMBER CALLED FOR ASSISTANCE. Y'ALL WERE RIGHT THERE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT. WHY WHY CAN'T WE BE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT NOW? WHEN I CALL FOR ASSISTANCE NINE TIMES OUT OF 10, NO ONE WANTS TO COME TO MY AID. I DEAL WITH THIS CHILD BY MYSELF. WHO IS THREATENING TO BREAK MY LEGS OFF. I HAVE CALLED MULTIPLE TIMES. NO ONE WANTS TO ANSWER MY CALLS. I HONESTLY I IT'S SAD. UM BUT I THINK THAT CHANGES NEED TO BE MADE AND INSTEAD OF ANNOUNCING WHEN Y'ALL ARE COMING TO THE SCHOOLS, I THINK THAT YOU ALL NEED TO COME UNANNOUNCED AND SEE EXACTLY HOW IT IS BECAUSE WHEN Y'ALL ANNOUNCED THAT Y'ALL ARE COMING, EVERYTHING'S IN PLACE. STUDENTS ARE ON THEIR BEST BEHAVIOR, SO YOU'RE NOT GETTING THE TRUE PICTURE. I WOULD REALLY LIKE TO SEE YOU ALL COME TO OUR SCHOOLS AND ANNOUNCED VERY SOON. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MISS DAVIS.

[4. Non-Action Items for Discussion]

I SERVED AS CHANCELLOR OF DALLAS COLLEGE AND WE'RE SO PROUD OF THE PARTNERSHIP. THAT WE HAVE WITH EACH OF YOU. SO UM, FIRST OF ALL, DR ELDRIDGE, WELCOME. WE LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING WITH YOU AND DR BLACK AND BOARD. WE APPRECIATE ALL YOU DO TO SUPPORT CHILDREN IN THIS COMMUNITY, AND WE HAVE BROUGHT OUR A TEAM HERE WITH US THIS EVENING THAT YOU'LL HEAR FROM OUR PROVOST, DR FLOYD AND ALSO THE INTERIM PRESIDENT AT BROOKHAVEN, DOCTOR CHRISTMAS LIKE OH, AH, AND WE JUST WANT TO SHARE A LITTLE BIT ABOUT, UH, WITH THE PARTNERSHIP IS GARNERING THE OUTCOMES THAT WE'RE ACHIEVING ON BEHALF OF STUDENTS IN OUR COMMUNITY. AND AT DALLAS COLLEGE. WE REALLY BELIEVE THAT WE ARE THE BRIDGE TO ECONOMIC MOBILITY AND PROSPERITY. FOR THOSE SEEKING TO GET INTO THE EDUCATIONAL PIPELINE AND THEN FOR BUSINESS EMPLOYERS SEEKING TO GET PEOPLE TO WORK. AND WE HAVE RAPIDLY EXPANDED OUR DUAL CREDIT OFFERINGS AS YOU'LL SEE, UM AND SOME OF THE PRESENTATION OVER THE LAST FEW YEARS BECAUSE AGAIN WE BELIEVE THAT OPPORTUNITY IS FOR ALL AND WE WANT TO CREATE A COLLEGE GOING COLLEGE GOING CULTURE IN THIS COMMUNITY, AND WE INVEST HEAVILY AS YOU'LL SEE IN SOME INFORMATION WILL PROVIDE IN UM, IN OUR STUDENTS IN THAT WE DON'T CHARGE FOR DUAL CREDIT FOR EARLY COLLEGE HIGH SCHOOL, UM, OPPORTUNITIES, SO THAT MEANS WHEN WE HAVE OUR COMMENCEMENT CEREMONIES NEXT MONTH THERE WILL BE MANY STUDENTS ACROSS THAT STAGE WITH AN ASSOCIATES DEGREE OR CREDENTIAL FROM US, UH, THAT THAT WE HAVE SCHOLARSHIPS THOSE DOLLARS THAT THEY HAVEN'T HAD TO PAY FOR IT, SO THEY HAVE A LEG UP ON THEIR EDUCATIONAL JOURNEY.

AND SO WE CAN'T MAKE THESE LEVEL INVESTMENTS. WE CAN'T PROVIDE THIS OPPORTUNITY. WITHOUT LEADERSHIP. FROM OUR BOARD, AND SO WE'RE LUCKY TO HAVE WITH US THIS EVENING. UH ONE OF OUR LONGEST SERVING BOARD MEMBERS, DEANNA FLORES, UH, AND WITH HER LEADERSHIP, SHE'S ONE OF OUR FORMER CHAIRS OF OUR BOARD WITH HER LEADERSHIP AND THAT OF OUR OTHER BOARD MEMBERS. LIKE I SAID, WE HAVE INVESTED HEAVILY TO EXPAND OR EARLY COLLEGE HIGH SCHOOL DOOR CREDIT OPPORTUNITIES. SO AGAIN. THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING US TO BE HERE AND WITH THAT TRUST AT THE END

[00:40:42]

12 SO THAT'S ONLY A 16 WEEK COURSE YOU COULD IMAGINE THE DISADVANTAGE THEY WERE AT PRIOR TO THIS. THIS SLIDE REALLY TELLS YOU ABOUT WHY WE STARTED TO ENGAGE IN WORK WITH OUR I S DS LIKE YOU OUR COMMUNITY PARTNERS , YOU'LL SEE THAT ROUGHLY 50% OF THE WORKING INDUSTRY THE COMPANIES, THE CORPORATIONS SAID THAT THEY COULD FIND ABOUT 50% OF THEIR SKILLED WORKERS FROM OUR POPULATION OF CITIZENS HERE IN DALLAS. YOU'LL ALSO FIND ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THIS SLIDE, WHERE IT SAID ONE IN FOUR ARE ONLY 25% OF CITIZENS IN DALLAS WERE ABLE TO EARN A LIVABLE WAGE , SO YOU'LL SEE THE HUGE GAP THERE. SO EVEN THOUGH WE WERE DOING A LOT OF GREAT WORK IN THE HIGHER ED SPACE, WE REALLY FELT THE NEED TO DIG BACK FURTHER TO EIGHTH GRADE NINTH GRADE SO THAT WE CAN START TO IMPACT STUDENTS EARLIER. ABOUT A CAREER CHOICE, A CAREER PATH AND HOW THEY MIGHT ENGAGE IN THAT WORK. SO IT WAS AROUND 2015 AGAIN AS A RESULT OF GREAT LEADERSHIP IN OUR TRUSTEES AND OUR CHANCELLOR THAT WE MADE THE DECISION TO REALLY BE INTENTIONAL ABOUT OUR PARTNERSHIPS WITH INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT SO THAT WE COULD IMPACT STUDENTS EARLIER, THEREBY CHANGING THEIR LIFE TRAJECTORY. THIS SLIDE TALKS ABOUT THE LIVES THAT WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO CHANGE SINCE THAT TIME. THIS IS DATA FROM 2016 TO 2020 WHERE YOU'LL SEE THAT WE'VE AWARDED OVER 1600 ASSOCIATE DEGREES OVER 500 COLLEGE CERTIFICATES. WE'VE ALSO BEEN ABLE TO SCHOLARSHIPS 16 POINT 3,000,002 STUDENTS IN WAVING SCHOLARSHIPS FOR OUR STUDENTS WERE EARLY COLLEGE HIGH SCHOOL AND DUAL CREDIT. SO THAT MEANS THEY'RE IN HIGH SCHOOL. BUT ALSO ATTENDING OUR COLLEGE COURSES AT THE SAME TIME FOR FREE. AND THEN YOU'LL SEE THAT 30% OF ALL OF OUR DALLAS COLLEGE ENROLLMENTS DURING THIS TIME PERIOD MAKE UP, UH UP DUAL CREDIT STUDENTS. CURRENTLY OUR POPULATION OF DUAL CREDIT STUDENTS IS ABOUT 27,000. SO THAT'S BOTH ARE DUAL CREDIT REGULARLY MATRICULATING AS WELL AS OUR EARLY COLLEGE HIGH SCHOOL P TECH STUDENTS, SO THAT'S ABOUT A THIRD OF OUR POPULATION. THIS TALKS ABOUT THE SUCCESS THAT WE'VE HAD IN DIFFERENT TYPES OF INITIATIVES, SO YOU'LL NOTICE THAT WE HAVE OVER 84 CAREER IN COLLEGE READINESS MODELS.

THEY'RE BROKEN DOWN THERE WHERE WE HAVE AN EARLY COLLEGE HIGH SCHOOL MODEL. WE HAVE P TECH MODELS AS WELL AS SOME TEA STEM ACADEMIES. YOU'LL ALSO NOTE THE LEVEL OF ENGAGEMENT THAT WE NOW HAVE WITH OUR HIGH SCHOOLS AND I SD PARTNERS TOTALLING 88. AS WELL AS CHARTER SCHOOLS AND PRIVATE SCHOOLS. SO OUR BREATH AND BAND WITH HIS REALLY INCREASED AS A RESULT OF THAT DECISION TO BE INTENTIONAL ABOUT ENGAGING THIS POPULATION. THIS SLIDE. I LOVE BECAUSE THIS IS A CELEBRATION OF YOUR STUDENTS WE HAVE OVER 451 CARROLLTON FARMERS BRANCH STUDENTS ENROLLED WITH US AND THEY ARE COVERING OVER 5164 CREDIT HOURS WITH 79% SUCCESS. I LOVE THIS STATISTIC BECAUSE A LOT OF PEOPLE WHEN WE FIRST STARTED THIS WORK REALLY QUESTIONED WHETHER OR NOT HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS WERE PREPARED TO DO COLLEGE WORK. THEY QUESTION THEIR PSYCHE, THEIR MATURITY.

THEIR READINESS. THIS IS DEMONSTRATION AND PROOF POSITIVE THAT IF YOU ALLOW THEM THE OPPORTUNITY THEY SHOW UP AND THEY SHOW UP IN BIG WAYS, BECAUSE SUCCESS FOR US MEANS THAT A B OR C IN THE COURSE SO WE'RE REALLY HAPPY ABOUT THAT. YOU'LL SEE HERE THAT OUT OF THAT

[00:45:03]

THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE PRESENTATION BOARD MEMBERS. DO YOU HAVE QUESTIONS? UH, LET ME START WITH MISS BENAVIDEZ AND THEN WORK MY WAY BACK TOWARDS THANK YOU FOR THE PRESENTATION.

WHEN WILL THE BUILDING BE COMPLETE? OF THIS YEAR. NICE WONDERFUL. THANK YOU. MR ERIC. I

IT MAKES SUCH A DIFFERENCE FOR OUR STUDENTS. IT'S THIS CHANGES TRAJECTORIES FOR LIFE, SO WE CAN'T DO THAT WITHOUT Y'ALL. AND WE ARE SO GRATEFUL AS A PARENT OF A STUDENT THAT DID TAKE ADVANTAGE OF DUAL CREDIT IN HIGH SCHOOL. I CAN SAY THAT I THANK YOU FOR THOSE OPPORTUNITIES AND THAT WE HAD AND I KNOW THERE'S MORE OPPORTUNITIES COMING IN THE FUTURE WITH CFB, WHICH IS EXCITING BECAUSE THIS IS REALLY GOING TO MAKE THE DIFFERENCE FOR OUR KIDS GOING FORWARD. AND WE COULD NOT DO IT WITHOUT YOU. SO THANK YOU. AND I'M A PROUD GRADUATE OF BROOKHAVEN COLLEGE ASSOCIATES NURSING DEGREE, SO, YES. ANY OTHER COMMENTS. QUESTIONS FROM GUYS. THANK YOU.

GOOD EVENING, DR ELDREDGE, DR BLACK AND MEMBERS OF THE BOARD. TONIGHT. WE ARE EXCITED TO BRING WITH YOU AND SHARE ONE ASPECT OF OUR ROLE AS SERVING AS CHIEF. THE SCHOOL LEADERSHIP THAT IS LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT IN C F B , I S D WE COACH AND SUPPORT PRINCIPLES. ASPIRING PRINCIPALS , ADMINISTRATORS AND ASPIRING ADMINISTRATORS TO LEAD USING THE FRAMEWORK OF THE FIVE THAT DRIVE AND ALL WE DO IN CFB MISMATCH CHILD. LEADERSHIP EXPERT JOHN MAXWELL SAYS THE SINGLE BIGGEST WAY TO IMPACT AN ORGANIZATION IS TO FOCUS ON LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT. TONIGHT WE WOULD LIKE TO HIGHLIGHT THREE PATHWAYS IN WHICH WE DEVELOP OUR LEADERS WITHIN CFB. PRINCIPAL PLC S ASPIRING PRINCIPLE LEADERSHIP ACADEMY, A P L, A AND THE ASPIRING ADMINISTRATOR ACADEMY. THE ROLE OF THE CAMPUS PRINCIPLE IS REWARDING, AND YET IT CAN BE VERY LONELY AT TIMES. THIS IS WHY PRINCIPLES NEED THE OPPORTUNITY TO WORK WITH AND THROUGH OTHERS. DURING OUR PRINCIPAL PLC S. WE SHARE WHAT'S WORKING WELL, AND WE ALSO PROBLEM SOLVED TOGETHER THE AREAS THAT NEED IMPROVEMENT. THE COLLABORATION BROADENS OUR LENS AND BRINGS US TOGETHER WITH A SINGLE FOCUS ON IMPROVING STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT FOR ALL STUDENTS. NEW PRINCIPLES AND NEW TO CFB PRINCIPLES HAVE A UNIQUE SET OF NEEDS. THEREFORE WE HAVE PROVIDED AN ADDITIONAL PLC FOR THIS SPECIFIC GROUP OF LEADERS.

THEY NEED A SAFE PLACE WHERE THEY CAN ASK QUESTIONS AND HAVE A STRONG START TO THE PRINCIPAL SHIP. THE ENERGY AND EXCITEMENT THAT NEW PRINCIPLES BRINGING TO C R CFB FAMILY IS CONTAGIOUS.

LET'S LISTEN TO ONE OF OUR HOMEGROWN PRINCIPLES. LEON CHUA LOCK FROM DAN F. LONG MIDDLE SCHOOL SHARE ABOUT HIS LEADERSHIP JOURNEY WITHIN CFB. MY NAME IS LEON CHUA LOCK AND I HAVE THE HONOR OF SERVING AS THE PRINCIPAL AT DANA FLUNG MIDDLE SCHOOL. I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO ATTEND BOTH THE ASPIRING ADMINISTRATORS ACADEMY AS WELL AS THE A P L. A THE ASPIRING ADMINISTRATOR ACADEMY REALLY HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK TO CURRENT SITTING ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL. SEE WHAT THE ACTUAL DAY TO DAY LOOKS LIKE, SEE WHAT OUR PRIORITIES WOULD BE IN THOSE DAYS AND REALLY LEARN HOW TO MANAGE AND THRIVE IN THOSE ENVIRONMENTS AND WORKING WITH INSTRUCTION IN THE A P L. A. IT WAS GEARED TOWARDS COACHING AND FEEDBACK, BECOMING AN INSTRUCTIONAL LEADER IN LEADING A CAMPUS AND LEADING OTHERS IN THE WORKFORCE STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT. BOTH PROGRAMS PROVIDE A LOT OF OPPORTUNITIES FOR ME TO LEARN AND TO GROW PROFESSIONALLY. I WAS VERY THANKFUL THAT WE HAVE THESE THINGS IN THE DISTRICT TO GROW FROM WITHIN ASPIRING ADMINISTRATOR ACADEMY REALLY TAUGHT YOU HOW TO STEP INTO THE ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL ROLE IN THE A P L A REALLY OPENED YOUR EYES TO SOME OF THE DISTRICT SUPPORTS AND SOME OF THE DISTRICT RESOURCES AND THE BIG PICTURE ITEMS THAT YOU NEED TO COME INTO THE PRINCIPAL SHIP TO RUN A BUILDING SUCCESSFULLY. EACH ONE OF THESE PROGRAMS HAD COMPONENTS THAT WOULD THAT WERE DIRECTLY RELATED TO ASPECTS OF THE JOB THAT I WAS SEEKING. THAT COULD PREPARE ME TO IMPACT CHANGE AND IMPACT STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT ON CAMPUSES. CFB INVESTED IN ME, AND IT MADE ME VERY APPRECIATIVE OF THOSE OPPORTUNITIES AND I REALLY HAVE ENJOYED GETTING TO PROGRESS THROUGH AND CFB INTO THE FUTURE ROLES THAT THESE HAVE PREPARED ME FOR. WE HEARD MR XU LOCK TALKED ABOUT THE ASPIRING PRINCIPALS LEADERSHIP ACADEMY. THE ASPIRING PRINCIPALS LEADERSHIP ACADEMY R A P L. A IS DESIGNED FOR CURRENCY.

UM SO STARTING OUT WITH THE REAL POWERHOUSE AS I ADMINISTRATOR'S OFFICE ADMINISTRATORS REALLY KEEP US TOGETHER AND KEEP US GOING FOR A VERY LARGE SECTOR. WE HAVE THREE INCREDIBLE FOLKS TO HELP US OVERSEEING THE FACILITIES SERVICES FOLKS IS ROSEMARY SOSA.

COCKFIELD HELPS US WITH THE RECEPTIONIST AND HELPS US WITH OUR UTILITY BILLS KEEPS EVERYTHING ON THE STRAIGHT AND NARROW AND I THINK ASHLEY MIGHT HAVE THE HARDEST JOB IN THE DISTRICT TRYING TO KEEP ME IN THE RIGHT PLACE AT THE RIGHT TIME. UM AND SHE ALSO HELPS WITH ALL THE BOND ADMINISTRATION SIDE. OF COURSE WITH THOSE FOLKS THEY SUPPORT BOBBIE SHOW OVERSEES OUR FACILITY SERVICES AND GUARANTEES THE CONSTRUCTION PLANNING SIDE OF THE HOUSE. OUR MISSION IS TO, UH, DESIGNED TO MAINTAIN DISTRICT FACILITIES IN AN ORDERLY, CLEAN, SAFE ENVIRONMENT, WHICH MAXIMIZES BOTH THE INSTRUCTIONAL AND FISCAL WELL BEING OF EDUCATIONAL ORGANIZATION AND COMMUNITY. WE KNOW THAT SECOND TO OUR PEOPLE. OUR FACILITIES ARE NUMBER ONE INVESTMENT. UM WE DON'T RIVAL THE PEOPLE WE NEVER WILL. AND WE COULDN'T BECAUSE OUR PEOPLE ARE ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. BUT OUR CHALLENGE IS HOW DO WE MAKE OUR FACILITY? STAND UP AND STAND STRONG AS OUR FOLKS HAVE? THAT TAKES A HUGE TEAM. UM AND OF COURSE WE GET TO LEAD HEAR LOTS ABOUT THE PLANNING AND CONSTRUCTION SIDE OF THE HOUSE, BUT VERY SUDDENLY DO SO. THIS OPPORTUNITY WE'RE GONNA REALLY BE FOCUSING ON OUR FACILITIES SERVICES MAINTENANCE, CUSTODIAL SIDE OF THE HOUSE, AND THAT'S RIGHT THERE ON THE YELLOW SIDE, SO OBVIOUSLY, YEAH. YOU SEE LILIA AND LINDSEY ON OUR PROJECT MANAGEMENT SIDE. THAT'S THE CONSTRUCTION SIDE OF THE HOUSE. BUT HERE WE'RE GONNA FOCUS AND HEADING THAT UP IS OUR VERY OWN BOBBY SHAW, WHO ACTUALLY ATTENDED CFB, SO IT ALWAYS MAKES ME PROUD. WHEN WE GOT TO CFB GRAD HE KNOWS WELL, THE SECRETS ARE ALWAYS JOKED THAT THE VIVIAN FIELD RENOVATION WAS THE SEARCH FOR BOBBY'S LUNCHBOX. YEAH WE NEVER DID FIND IT. BUT WE TRIED .

[01:10:05]

WHO'S GOT SOME COUPLE OF STORIES TO TELL AND SOME SHOTS TO GIVE OUT. HI MY NAME IS TRICIA VIDEO, AND I'M THE PRINCIPAL OF BLANCHE ELEMENTARY. AND I REALLY WANTED TO TALK ABOUT, UM, ONE WAY THAT ONE OF OUR EMPLOYEES WENT OVER AND ABOVE RECENTLY. JUST SO YOU KNOW THAT IT BLANTON. WE REALLY FOCUS ON TEAMWORK. ALL MEANS. ALL IS NOT JUST SOMETHING WE SAY IT'S SOMETHING WE REALLY WORKED TO PUT INTO PRACTICE. EVERY DAY . WE SEE THIS IN A VARIETY OF WAYS FROM OUR TEACHERS AND SUCH.

BUT WE ALSO REALLY RECENTLY SAW FROM OUR HEAD CUSTODIAN MARIA SANCHEZ DURING LUNCH. MISS MARIA DOES AN AMAZING JOB, OBVIOUSLY KEEPING OUR BUILDING SPARKLING CLEAN. AND SHE HELPS WITH CLEANING UP, BUT SHE ALSO HELPS. UM SHE HELPS TEACH OUR KIDS HOW THEY CAN BE HOW THEY CAN HELP.

SHE HELPS THE LITTLE ONES OPEN UP CONTAINERS. SHE INTERACTS WITH THE KIDS. SHE'S ALWAYS REALLY INVOLVED IN MAKING SURE THAT SHE'S BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS AND TALKING WITH THE STUDENTS. ONE DAY AT LUNCH, SHE WAS AGAIN AT THE TABLES, HELPING WITH LUNCH, AND SHE NOTICED THAT A STUDENT WAS CHOKING. WITHOUT EVEN HESITATING INSTEAD OF SAYING, OH, I NEED TO GO GET SOME HELP. OR OH, I WONDER WHAT I SHOULD DO. SHE JUST JUMPED INTO ACTION AND HELPED YOU THE HEIMLICH MANEUVER AND DISLODGED THE FOOD THAT WAS STUCK IN THIS LEARNERS. THROAT DID NOT EVEN EXPECT ANY KIND OF THANK YOU OR ANYTHING. JUST HELP TAKE CARE OF IT. THEN WE WENT AND GOT HIM CHECKED OUT. HE WAS FINE. BUT IF SHE HADN'T BEEN PAYING SUCH CLOSE ATTENTION, IT COULD HAVE BEEN SOMETHING THAT WAS A LITTLE MORE SCARY FOR THE CHILD AND POTENTIALLY MORE OF A HEALTH HAZARD, BUT BECAUSE SHE TOOK MATTERS INTO HER OWN HANDS IN THE WAY THAT SHE JUST DID WHAT NEEDED TO BE DONE. SHE SHE DOES. SHE DID WHAT SHE DOES SO FREQUENTLY AND SHE HELPED TAKE CARE OF THE SITUATION BECAUSE ALL MEANS ALL AND MARIA DOES WHAT IS NECESSARY TO TAKE CARE OF THE PROBLEM TO MAKE SOMETHING BETTER. MARIA DOES AN AMAZING JOB OF TAKING CARE OF ALL OF US HERE AT SCHOOL, AND IT WAS REALLY IT WAS REALLY, UM IT WAS A REALLY BLESSING TO KNOW THAT SHE'S ALSO LOOKING OUT FOR THE FOR THE PHYSICAL WELL BEING OF OUR KIDS, NO MATTER WHAT, AND SHE SHE'S JUST SUCH A HUGE BLESSING FOR US HERE AT PLANET AND WE'RE REALLY GRATEFUL THAT SHE HELPED STEP IN AND TAKE CARE OF HER CHILDHOOD NEEDED WERE REALLY REALLY APPRECIATIVE OF THE WORK THAT MARIE DOES, ATLANTAN. THANK YOU. SO THAT'S JUST ONE OF THOUSANDS OF STORIES YOU'LL PROBABLY HEAR WHEN YOU VISIT WITH CAMPUS PRINCIPLES. UM A LOT OF OUR CUSTODIANS BECOME THEIR TEAM. YOU KNOW THEIR FAMILY AT THE CAMPUSES. THERE ARE FAMILY, BUT WE LEAVE THEM OUT BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T SUPPORT THE FACILITIES. A LOT OF OUR DAILY TASKS INCLUDE CLEANUP IN THE HALLWAYS, COMMON AREAS, CAFETERIAS AFTER BREAKFAST AND LUNCH, AS WELL AS OPENING THE BUILDINGS CLOSING BUILDING AT NIGHT. A LOT OF THE TIMES IT'S THE FACES. THE KIDS SEE FIRST IN THE MORNING AND SOMETIMES WHEN THEY LEAVE IN THE END OF THE DAY. UM A LOT OF OTHER ACTIVITIES IS PULLING TRASH OUT OF CLASSROOMS, CLEANING UP RESTROOMS AND MAKING THE BUILDING READY FOR THE NEXT DAY. WE DO COVER A LOT OF OTHER THINGS. WE TRY TO DO A QUARTERLY MONTHLY BASIS, WHETHER IT'S DEEP PLANTING WINDOW SERVICE. DEEP CLEANING CARPETS WERE NEEDED, UM AS WELL AS SUPPORTING OUR ATHLETIC FACILITIES. STADIUM CLEANUPS WORKING AT THE NATATORIUM. WE DO WORK ON ALL THE AFTER HOURS EVENTS. SORRY, GO FAST. LIKE WE DID THE CASES AROUND THE SPECIAL OLYMPICS. OUR TEAM GOES IN AND CLEANS UP AFTER THESE EVENTS, SO THEY'RE ALWAYS AROUND. THEY'RE ALWAYS INVOLVED , AND WE'RE GRATEFUL FOR THEIR SUPPORT. MOVING ON OVER TO OUR GENERAL MAINTENANCE. THIS HOUSE IS MORE OF OUR CARPENTRY, EXTERIOR INTERIOR PAINTING, CARPET LOCKSMITH. I WANT TO SAY OFFENSIVE GUYS. I MEAN, IT'S A NUMBER OF TRADES AND THAT KIND

[01:15:04]

YOU'VE PROBABLY HEARD HIS NAME DROPPED A FEW TIMES. HE DID SOME FURNITURE IMPROVEMENTS OVER AT CENTRAL ELEMENTARY AND SOME COLLABORATIVE SPACES. BUT HE'S NOT THE ONLY GUY WE HAVE IN THAT DEPARTMENT WE HAVE ABOUT. WANT TO SAY 12 13 17 SORRY. 17 INDIVIDUALS WHO KIND OF RUN THAT, LIKE I SAID, THEY COVER THINGS FROM PAINTING TO FLOOR AND REPLACEMENT. WE DID SOME CARPET UPGRADES AT SOME SMALL AREAS. WE HELP TRANSPORTATION BUILD THERE. BUT I'M SORRY.

STORAGE AREA. WE FILL THAT INFORM ALSO, WE'VE BEEN KIND OF TAKING SOME SECURITY INITIATIVES TO HELP WITH DOOR LOCKS INSTALLED NEW HARDWARE ON CLASSROOM PODS THAT DIDN'T HAVE THEM BEFORE. UM LIKE I SAID, A LOT OF UPDATED PAINS WHERE WE CAN LIKE I SAID, WE HAVE THREE PAINTS THAT COVER 5.2 MILLION, SO IT TAKES TIME TO GET THROUGH . BUT THESE GUYS WORK HARD WORK DILIGENTLY ALL AROUND THE YEAR LONG SOME OF THE COOL PROJECTS YOU MIGHT SEE THIS IS THE EXCUSE ME OVER AT FREEMAN ELEMENTARY. WE PULLED OUT THE OLD CASEWORK AND MADE SOME LITTLE READING BOOKS TO KIDS USE. WE'VE DONE THAT A FEW ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS AGAINST USED QUITE A BIT. THE KIDS LOVE IT. THE TEACHERS LOVE IT. SO IT'S BEEN A KIND OF A HIGHLIGHT OF STUFF THAT WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH IN HOUSE VERSUS TRYING TO CONTRACT THAT OUT. SOME OTHER EXAMPLES OF SITE CLEANUP. WE DO PAINT HELPED DIRECTIONS, HELP WITH SAFETY WITH CROSSING GUARDS OR CROSSWALKS, AS WELL AS THE SIDEWALK REPAIRS AND SOME POTHOLE REPLACEMENTS AS WE CAN.

UM NEXT TIME WE HAVE SUPPORTED SECURITY AND SOME INITIATIVES WITH THE DOOR SIGNAGE, UH, FACILITY SIGNAGE AS WELL AS OUR TRESPASSING SIGNS AT THE BALL FIELD WHEN WE'RE TRYING TO KEEP THOSE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. MOVING ON OVER TO OUR PLUMBING DEPARTMENT THAT'S LED BY ANOTHER CFB ALUMNI, BRANDON GREGOR. BY RESPECTING THEM AND THERE'S SO THEY PUT THIS. WHERE IN, I THINK IN THE LATE DECEMBER THAT STARTING VERY SOON, IF NOT NOW THAT IF YOU ENROLL IN PARTICULAR PROGRAM IN HIGH SCHOOLS THAT BY THE TIME YOU GRADUATE HIGH SCHOOL, SO FROM 16 TO 18, YOU CAN BE A TRADESMAN PLUMBER. MAKING 20 SOMETHING DOLLARS AN HOUR. RIGHT NOW. I MEAN, IT'S GONNA CHANGE RIGHT BECAUSE THE ECONOMY AND THINGS LIKE THAT, BUT OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL, YOU WILL BE A LICENSED PLUMBER THAT CAN WORK ON ONE AND TWO FAMILY DWELLINGS OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL. SO THAT'S REALLY IMPORTANT GUYS, AND THAT'S JUST PLUMBING. LET ME WE HAVE OUR MECHANIC. SORRY.

YEAH, BY RESPECTING THEM. SO WE HAD OUR PLUMBING DEPARTMENT AS WELL AS ONE OF OUR CONTRACTORS, VENDORS GO OUT TO NEWMAN SMITH AND HELPING A TRADE PRESENTATION . TALK ABOUT THE FUTURE OF THE TRADE THE NEEDS FOR PLUMBERS. OBVIOUSLY WE KNOW THERE'S A WORKER SHORTAGE, SO WE'RE TRYING TO BUILD THOSE UP INTERNALLY. WE'RE TRYING TO EXPAND IN OUR OWN INTERNSHIP PROGRAM. SO HOPEFULLY ONE DAY YOU HAVE STUDENTS WHO INVOLVED IN THE CONSTRUCTION KIND OF WORK ALONGSIDE OUR GUYS HERE IN THE DISTRICT. AND KIND OF GET THAT ON THE JOB SUPPORT. A LOT OF OTHER THINGS WE COVER AND PLUMBING IS OUR SITE IRRIGATION. WE ALSO COVER ALL OF OUR LINES OF SEWER PIPE OF FIRE SPRINKLER SYSTEMS, UH, HOT WATER HEATERS, BOILERS? UH IF IT HAS WATER COMING THROUGH WITH THESE GUYS MAINTAIN IT. THEY ALSO MAINTAIN ALL OF OUR GUEST SYSTEMS. YEAH, WE DO YEARLY TESTING. SO WE HAVE TO MAKE SURE THOSE ARE UP TO COUNT TO PRINT THOSE TO THE CITY AND TO THE STATE. SO THESE GUYS ARE QUITE BUSY. YOU PROBABLY SEE HIM AROUND QUITE A BIT IF YOU'RE AT THE CAMPUSES. NOT TO BE OUTDONE, H V A. C. HI I'M SANDY BURKHART, SECRETARIAT RL TURNER HIGH SCHOOL, AND I JUST WANT TO GIVE A HUGE SHOUT OUT TO TERRY VANDENBERG. HE IS AN AMAZING H VAC INDIVIDUAL. HE HAS SAVED US MANY, MANY TIMES AND ALL OF THE GUYS THAT WORK UNDER HIM OR AMAZING.

TERRY MANAGES TO GET IT FOR ME SOMEHOW, WHEN WE WERE IN UNDER CONSTRUCTION, WE HAD PROBLEMS WITH A C. WE HAD PROBLEMS WITH HEAT. TERRY WAS ALWAYS THERE TO HELP US WITH

[01:20:02]

I SEE THEM OUT THERE ALL THE TIME GOING PASTURES MOWING AROUND OUR BARN. IT'S BECAUSE OF THEM. THEY WERE ABLE TO KEEP THE ENVIRONMENT HEALTHY FOR OUR LIVESTOCK ANIMALS AND BE COMPETITIVE IN THE SHOW ARENA. THANK YOU FOR ALL THAT YOU DO. SO LIKE I SAID, I'D LIKE TO BRAG

[01:25:03]

CONTINUE TO LEAD THESE GUYS AS WE GET THROUGH ALL OF OUR PRUNING LANDSCAPE IMPROVEMENTS.

NOT TO BE OUTDONE, R I P M DEPARTMENT ALSO FALLS INTO THIS. SO IF YOU SEE LITTLE GUY WE GOT THERE. WE CATCH A LOT OF RODENTS AROUND THE DISTRICT. WE TRY TO PREVENT THAT. BUT OBVIOUSLY YOU KNOW, THE DISTRICT THIS SIZE ALWAYS HAS THAT ISSUE, BUT WE'VE GOT A GOOD STAFF. THOSE GUYS JUMP ON TOP OF IT AND TRY TO KEEP OUR BUILDINGS RODENT FREE, AS I WOULD LIKE TO SAY. ONE BIG HIGHLIGHT. WE JUST DID OUT THE EXCITE. WE BUILT A PAVILION OUTDOOR CLASSROOM. WE'RE STILL KIND OF FINISHING THE FINAL TOUCHES ON IT. BUT WE'VE KIND OF PARTNERED WITH THE SCIENCE DEPARTMENT SO THEY'D HAVE SOME OUTDOOR LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES SO THEY CAN HAVE MORE EVENTS OUT THERE FIELD TRIPS, AND WE'RE ALSO TRYING TO WORK WITH THE AG PROGRAM TO HELP BUILD THAT FACILITY. BACK UP WHERE IT NEEDS TO BE, UM, SO WE'RE EXCITED ABOUT THE FUTURE IN THAT REGARD.

UM LIKE I SAID, I'M REALLY GRATEFUL FOR OUR TEAM AND ALL THE HARD WORK. WE DO THE GUYS AND GALS GO ABOVE AND BEYOND WORK ALL KINDS OF HOURS. WHETHER IT'S DURING COVID WHEN WE COME IN TO DISINFECT ROOMS OR SNOWMAGEDDON WHEN WE HAD TO GO WALK BUILDINGS TO MAKE SURE BUILDINGS WEREN'T FREEZING UP WHEN POWER WENT DOWN. UH SO THESE GUYS AND GALS WORK HARD.

WE'RE THANKFUL FOR ALL OF OUR PARTNERSHIPS ACROSS THE BOARD, UH, WITH TECHNOLOGY FINANCE. I DON'T WANT TO LEAVE ANYBODY ELSE. HR YOU GUYS OVER THERE, TOO.

SO THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH. UM MY QUESTION FOR YOU GUYS IS WHAT MAKES CFE FACILITIES. UH, UNIQUE SERVICES UNIQUE. IT'S A GOOD QUESTION. I CAN GO BACK TO THE PRESENTATION, BUT NO, I'M JOKING. THAT'S KIND OF A TYPICAL WEEK FOR US. YOU KNOW, I WOULD SAY IT'S THE TEAMWORK. THE GUYS WORK TOGETHER. A LOT OF TIMES. YOU SEE PLANT OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE. DON'T ALWAYS GET ALONG. BUT WE WORK TEAMS. YOU KNOW WHETHER IT'S MOVING BUILDINGS TRYING TO GET KIDS INTO BUILDINGS AFTER CONSTRUCTION. YOU KNOW, WE MOVED PERRY A NUMBER OF TIMES THAT'S NOT JUST ONE DEPARTMENT.

OUR HEART IS SHOWING PROBABLY MY FAVORITE SLIDE. THIS YEAR THROUGH VOLUNTEERISM AND PEOPLE BEING WILLING TO GIVE WE'VE GIVEN OVER £75,000 OF FOOD TO OUR DRIVERS AND MONITORS AND WORKERS AT CFB , I S D.

WE ARE REQUIRED TO INSPECT EVERY VEHICLE THAT WE DRIVE IN THE MORNING. IN THE AFTERNOON. AND WE DO THAT THROUGH A TABLET THAT'S CALLED ZONE ARTS ALL ELECTRONICALLY. IT CONNECTS TO OUR WORK ORDER SYSTEM. WHICH IS CALLED ARTE IN THE SHOP. AND SO THERE'S WASHER WASHER WIPER BLADE OUT OR WHATEVER AUTOMATICALLY GENERATES A WORK ORDER ENTAILS THE SHOP, SO IT'S BEEN MUCH MORE DEAL AND IT'S ALSO WE'RE IN THE PROCESS OF THE NEW STUDENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM WILL BE A PART OF THE ZONE ARTS HOW WE DO THE BADGES.

[01:40:05]

SHE IS A STANDBY DRIVER SHE HELPS OUT WITH RECRUITING. SHE HAS WORKED TIRELESSLY. AND WE INTERVIEW ALMOST DAILY. WE'VE DEFINITELY DONE IT ALL WEEK LONG ALL YEAR LONG EVERY WEEK AND SO THAT FULL TERM THAT FULL YEAR RECRUITING CYCLE. HAS ALLOWED US. I HAVEN'T DRIVEN A BUS. UH PROBABLY IN ABOUT SIX MONTHS. OUR MANAGEMENT HASN'T DRIVEN A BUS AND PROBABLY FOUR OR FIVE MONTHS, AND IF WE DO, IT'S A FIELD TRIP DAY LIKE TODAY WE HAD 50 SOME FIELD TRIPS. IT'S ONE OF THOSE DAYS.

OUR SELECTION PROCESS WE PRIMARILY USE INDEED. WE CONSTANTLY. HR HAS BEEN VERY GOOD TO US WITH THE BUDGET, AND WE HAVEN'T INDEED HAD GOING ALL THE TIME THAT WE DO NOT RIGHT NOW BECAUSE WE'RE COMING TO THE END, AND I DON'T THINK IT'S FAIR TO A DRIVER. IT TAKES ABOUT SIX WEEKS BY THE TIME THEY COME IN AND INTERVIEW TILL THEY GET HIRED AND CAN DRIVE AND RIGHT NOW, THAT WOULD BE THE END OF SCHOOL, AND SO IT'S VERY DIFFICULT FOR THEM TO KEEP THEM FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS. BUT THEY COME THROUGH US AND INDEED AND WE REALLY DON'T FIND OUT.

THEY'RE UNDERPRIVILEGED UNTIL AFTER THEY'VE BEEN THERE. AND THEN WE FIND OUT THAT SOME OF THEM ARE LIVING IN THEIR CARS OR DON'T HAVE FOOD OR VARIOUS THINGS LIKE THAT. AND, UH I DON'T WANT TO SHARE A TON OF STORIES, BUT I CAN TELL YOU MULTIPLE STORIES OF PEOPLE IN THE OFFICE THAT BUY GROCERIES AND GAS AND PICK PEOPLE UP AND HELP FOLKS OUT AND UH, IT'S VERY I WOULD SAY THIS IS VERY HUMBLING.
