Dover School Board Meeting of 6-7-2010

Minutes

 

(These minutes are not official as they have not been corrected or accepted by the Dover School Board)

 

In Attendance:  Arlene Schertzer, Laura Sibilia, Rich Werner, Traci Alfonso, Jollene Mahon, Steven John (going between Marlboro’s meeting and Dover’s), Larry Morgan, Patrick Moreland, Tom Powell, Bill Anton and Helen Brown.

 

Meeting called to order:  Rich called the meeting to order at 6:30p.m.

 

Audit Discussion: 

·         Dover was included in the WCSU audit bid process.

·         Patty Westlake stated the Town of Dover and Town of Wilmington RFP went out to bid.

·         Rich asked if we wanted to put a bid out for Dover School or since we already went out to bid through WCSU, we could choose the firm chosen by them, or go on our own with whomever we preferred.

·         Patty Westlake and Helen Brown prefer to remain with Sullivan and Powers.

·         Patty stated we have $10,500. put aside for audit.

·         WCSU bid chosen was Sullivan and Powers, and their price for the Dover School District audit is $10,500.00

·         Laura moved to have Sullivan and Powers do the Dover School FY 2010 audit for the cost of $10,500.00.  Second from Jollene Mahon.  Unan.

 

Earth Tone Technologies:

·         Larry Morgan, Site Acquisition Specialist for Earth Tone Technologies, was present to explain the process of their firm placing a “tower” on school property.

-          Current towers not filling need for technology in many areas

-          Not a large metal tower – theirs blends in with trees

-          Carriers interested may locate on their polls

-          Dover has the correct elevation – there are possibly 3 other places in Dover Earth Tone Technologies would like to have their “tower”

-          Landlord generates income from Earth Tone and each carrier

-          35 year commitment needed, funding/income generated explained

·         Board had a few questions answered regarding what the tower would look like, fencing, placement, etc.

·         Rich stated the board will discuss this in executive session and get back to Larry Tuesday.

 

DEDC – Patrick Moreland:

·         Rich read Patrick a letter the school board had sent to the DEDC and the Dover Select Board quite some time ago - wish list.

-          Select board never got back to school board.

-          Rich wanted to bring Patrick up to date.

-          Patrick stated that Bill Anton has been fantastic – in touch with him often, supportive, etc.

and wanted to commend him for that.

-          Patrick and school board want to work together

-          Laura thought Patrick and DEDC should be involved with Earth Tone Technologies.

-          Patrick and Tom Powell had met with Larry Morgan – felt Larry’s proposal makes sense.

 

Marlboro School Board:

·         Met with Dover School Board to review possibilities of sharing costs, how we brought our special education costs down, what changed, how the transition was handled, etc.

·         Rich explained what Dover has done:

-          Teachers have in-service during afternoons of winter sports (6 weeks)– parent volunteers handle all winter sports events.

-          Students had too much time spent pulled out of class for support from sped.; IEP’s had more weekly time allotted for assistance to children than what the week actually had.

-          Stressed Differentiated Instruction

-          Trained our staff, which was supported by school board.

-          Administrator brought people in to work with staff (training), expected everyone to be trained.

·         Rich stated all of the above lowered our special education costs, and in a sense lowered the budget in this area.

·         Laura stated that the board supported Administration in keeping single grades in K – 3, with combination grades for 4/5 and 5/6.

·         Rich said our Pre-K program is very beneficial – saves money down the line.

·         Testing is done to see where the gaps are so these gaps can be addressed.

(It’s believed Marlboro and Dover was grouped together because we both do our own bookkeeping, we’re “neighbors”; we both have school choice, etc.)

·         Marlboro and Dover may meet jointly to discuss transportation needs to Brattleboro.

·         Perhaps grades from both schools could do same event, e.g. reading, field trips.

·         Determined that the Administrators from both schools will work together on ideas.

 

Superintendent’s Report:  (see attached)

 

Minutes and Correspondence:

·         Laura moved to accept the minutes of the 5/17/10 board meeting as typed.  Second from Jollene.  Unan.

 

Principal’s Report:  (see attached)

·         Leo Blair has accepted a full time Special Educators position at Leland and Gray for next year.

·         Bill has been subpoenaed for June 16^th involving event at previous school he was employed, so will be out that day.

·         Lunch with teachers will be from Tony’s, and will be on June 21^st at 1p.m.

·         6^th grade graduation will be June 18^th at 6:30p.m. at Dover School.

·         Have not heard about kitchen grant yet – state waiting to see if they receive funding.

 

Old Business:

·         Rich asked about Acceptable Use Policy – was left at last meeting that this would be a procedure, not policy.  Board has copy of procedure.

·         Jollene moved to accept the Acceptable Use Procedure as presented, with a second from Arlene. Unan.

·         Rich asked about policy G11.2 – this is actually part of G11, and has been completed.

 

New Business:

·         Certified staff contracts for FY’11 presented to be signed.

·         Jollene made a motion to have board chair sign certified staff contracts for FY ‘11.  Second by Arlene. Unan.

 

Work Session:

·         Would like a time to discuss how the community is succeeding – how our Dover graduates are succeeding.

·         Bill handed out a middle/high school student’s survey for board to review.

-          Send suggestions, ideas, and changes to Bill via e-mail by next week.

GRANTS SECURED BY MR. ANTON

   Mr. Anton has been very busy writing grants for various projects here at Dover School.  To date, he has received the following funds for the 2009-2010 school year:

·        $40,000. =  New bus grant

·        $  8,000.  = ARRA Action Research Grant

-           Study Dover’s Instructional Program

·        $10,000.  = Matching Generator Grant

-          This will replace the “ancient” generator we currently have

·        $  3,500. =  Mount Snow and Dew Tour Playground Fund

·        $12,490. =  Energy Efficiency Grant

·        $12,500. =  Tobacco and Technology Grant

-          This was for the SMARTboard, laptops, digital cameras, graduate classes, professional development, etc.)

   To date, this totals $86,490!!  Thank you Mr. Anton for your hard work and dedication!  We all feel very fortunate to have you with us at Dover School! Mr. Anton has another matching grant he is sending off soon ($3500.) - for the kitchen (breakfast/lunch program).  The school board agreed to the matching grants, and the funds were approved at Town Meeting.  This means we will have a total of $20,000. for the generator and $7,000. for the food program.

PLAY BALL!!  IT’S BASEBALL TIME!

   A few weeks ago, there was a Dover Youth Baseball Information letter and sign-up form attached to the school newsletter that went home with all students.  In the handout, all the information for the upcoming season was reviewed.  We had asked that all sign-up forms and appropriate fees be turned in by 3/31.  As of yesterday (3/31) only a minimal amount of forms have been returned.  If you are interested in having your son or daughter play baseball this spring, we REALLY need to have these forms handed in immediately. 

  The Dover A-Ball Team will begin practices next Thursday, April 8 from 4:30 – 6:00p.m. in the school gym (please use the side door, near the playground). From that point on, we get underway sometime in mid-May.  A-Ball games will be on Tuesday’s and Thursday’s at 6p.m.  Any student that is 10-12 years old is eligible to play A-Ball.  Students 7-9 years old are eligible for B-Ball, and students in Pre-K, kindergarten and 1^st grade are eligible for T-Ball.  More information regarding B-Ball and T-Ball practices will be coming soon.

   A-Ball players need to wear sneakers, have a baseball glove and bring water with them to practice.  We will practice INDOORS ONLY until further notice.

   Lastly, if anyone has a baseball uniform from last year, please return it, clean , to Helen at the front office ASAP.  We need to do an inventory of the uniforms right away to see if we need to order more.

   If you have any questions, feel free to contact Rob Hubert (A-Ball) at 348-72956 or Randy Capitani (B-Ball/T-Ball) at 464-3388 or 348-7247.

   We all are looking forward to a GREAT baseball season!!
