Community Council

Parent involvement is very important to student academic achievement. By serving on the school council, parents have the opportunity to collaborate with other parents, teachers and the principal to set and achieve school goals. Parents are rewarded with a better understanding of the educational process and have the opportunity to develop relationships with school leadership. A parent always serves as chair of the council. Parents make up the majority of the council and are often the driving force in how School LAND Trust funds are spent.

La participación de los padres es muy importante para el logro académico del estudiante. Al servir en el consejo de la escuela, los padres tienen la oportunidad de colaborar con otros padres, maestros y el director para establecer y alcanzar las metas de la escuela. Los padres son recompensados con una mejor comprensión del proceso educativo y tienen la oportunidad de desarrollar relaciones con el liderazgo escolar. Un padre siempre sirve como presidente del consejo. Los padres constituyen la mayoría del consejo y son a menudo la fuerza impulsora en cómo se gastan los fondos fiduciarios de la escuela LAND.

Rules of Order & Procedure

2020-2021

2020-2021

To promote ethical behavior and civil discourse each council member shall:

· Attend council meetings on time and prepared

· Make decisions with the needs of students as the main objective

· Listen to and value diverse opinions

· Be sure the opinions of those you represent are included in discussions

· Expect accountability and be prepared to be accountable

· Act with integrity

Rules of Procedure:

All meetings are open to the public and the public is welcome to attend.

The agenda of each upcoming meeting with draft minutes of the prior meeting will be made available to all council members at least one week in advance, will be posted on the school website and made available in the main office. The agenda will include the date, time and location of the meeting.

Minutes will be kept of all meetings, prepared in draft format for approval at the next scheduled meeting.

The council will prepare a timeline for the school year that includes due dates for all required reporting and other activities/tasks that the council agrees to assume or participate in. The timeline will assist in preparation of agendas to be sure the council accomplishes their work in a timely manner.

The council consists of the principal, 1 school employee(s) who is elected in even years, 1 school employee(s) who is/are elected in odd years, and 8 parent members, half of whom are elected in even years and half in odd years. In the event there is a tie vote in an election, the principal shall flip a coin to determine the outcome. (Size of the council should be determined by the council, but councils are required to consist of the principal, at least one school employee, and at least four parents with a two-parent majority on the council. Elections are required to be staggered)

The chair conducts the meetings, makes assignments and requests reports on assignments. In the absence of the chair the vice-chair shall conduct meetings.

The council must have a quorum to vote. A quorum is equal to a majority of council members.

If a parent member is absent from two consecutive meetings, the chair will notify the member that if the member does not attend the next meeting, the council will consider the seat vacant and the remaining parent members will appoint a parent to fill the unexpired term. The council must determine a procedure for a council member to disclose a conflict of interest if required by the local school board.

Meetings shall be conducted and action taken according to very simplified rules of parliamentary procedure as required in 53G-7-1203(10). Council actions will be taken by motions and voting with votes and motions recorded in the minutes.

A motion (or an action to be taken by the council) is stated as a motion. Someone else on the council “seconds” the motion indicating that at least one other person on the council feels the motion is worthy of discussion. Then the council members may provide input and discussion as called upon by the chair. When discussion seems complete the chair may call for a vote on the motion. Or when a member of the council “calls the previous question” (a motion to end discussion of the first motion), a second is required. Without discussion the chair calls for a vote that must pass by 2/3. If the vote on the previous question fails, the council goes back to discussing the first motion. If the motion to call the previous question passes, the chair directly calls for a vote on the first motion. A vote to call the previous question is usually used to move business along.

· A tie vote is a lost vote.

· Most motions are main motions. A main motion may be amended.

· A point of order is offered when there is some question if procedure had been followed correctly.

· To stop debate or discussion on a motion and force the vote a member would say, “I move the previous

question.” This requires a second and a 2/3 vote.

· Hasty action may be corrected by use of the motion to reconsider. This motion may be made only

by one who voted on the prevailing side.

· A person who made the motion may withdraw the same motion.

School Land Trust Summary

School Land Trust Summary 2016-17

Land Trust Summary 16-17

It was our plan to increase our Language Arts Scores between 2016 and 2017. Wasatch Elementary did an excellent job this past year. In SAGE our overall school score increased from 48% proficient to 59% proficient for grade 3 - 6. This is huge growth as compared to the growth we have made in past years.

We were able to maximize our use of paraprofessionals in the classroom providing targeted intervention. Although we did focus on some writing, our work was primarily focused on reading. Mt. Ogden Latinos in Action students came and read with our first graders in a one-on-one model. This provided our students with a focused, extended reading time which helped students solidify words and sound patterns they might have been struggling with. We also worked with Americorp which brought in Weber State University students as additional tutors.

Our third grade team was our group that made the most growth. They worked hard both in the classroom providing intervention and afterschool providing additional reading support. In 2016 37% of our 3rd graders were considered proficient in English Language Arts. in 2017, 62% of our 3rd graders were considered proficient in English Language Arts. That is 25% increase in one year. Congratulations 3rd grade for such great growth!

Our second goal was to increase the number of students who were proficient in mathematics. We did not make growth in this area, and in fact we dropped three percentage points from 2016 to 2017. Our intent was to use technology in the form of chromebooks in mobile carts to provide students a number of different ways to work on mathematical understanding. We had also hoped by giving students access to the technology tools, students would be more comfortable testing on computers which would result in an increase in scores. Although students did make gains in their understanding and competency in using computers, this has not yet translated into increase gains in proficiency in math.

Funding Changes

There are times when the planned expenditures in the goals of a plan are provided by the LEA, a grant, or another unanticipated funding source leaving additional funds to implement the goals. If additional funds are available, how will the council spend the funds to implement the goals in this plan? We will purchase additional intervention supplies, hire an ELL teacher or hire a classroom staff assistant to provide additional interventions to students. Pay for any additional substitute costs for teachers in plan if needed.

*Jer Bates - Covid 19 update and questions -

For Ogden School district COVID 19 plan please go to:

https://www.ogdensd.org/community/keeping-ogden-healthy. You can access the Utah State Covid 19 school manual under the “FAQ for families”. The district has provided a condensed version of the manual. You can also access the district case count for every school in the district by clicking on “COVID-19 Case Count”. Since the start of the year at Wasatch there have been about 6 cases among students and staff with the last active case being October 28th. They are finding that the majority of positive transmissions are outside of school.

The motivation behind the virtual day of learning happening on Nov. 24th is to prepare in advance should school be changed to at home learning. They would like the students to see what it looks like to take home materials, meals, and be able to access the different class materials/systems. After this day any difficulties and questions can be addressed to prepare for possible at home learning. The district does not intend to close the schools at this time. The Wasatch students will be asked to complete a short survey after they have completed their work on Tuesday to see what challenges they encountered so they can be solved.

Jer Bates mentioned that our school and community were doing well with Covid numbers and to keep up the good work. If you have questions you may contact Jer Bates at batesj@ogdensd.org.

*Questions/Concerns

*Why is the “younger” playground getting closed during cold weather? When the temperature gets too cold then the surface is too hard and slippery and it’s too dangerous. The district said they can’t put ice melt on the surface because it will damage it.

*Is there a specific administrator tracking the progress over Polk’s construction? Shannon wasn’t sure but will find out. Sue Ann B said at the last board mtg it was discussed that Polk was on schedule. Jeremy Shinoda gave the website address to access the Ogden board meetings that have the updates for Polk. https://meetings.boardbook.org/Public/Organization/752

*Who sets the guidelines for the outside temperature of when the students can go outside? The state school board sets the temp guidelines.

NEXT MTG - December 17th at 10am.

School Updates

Is there an administrator over Polk construction?

Mrs. Harrison was the administrator involved in all construction meetings. Now that plans are approved and the building has started administration is not needed. Whatever administrator is appointed to Polk for reopening will take over.

Backpacks

New backpacks are NOT required

All backpacks must fit in the classroom cubbies which measure 13 inches wide, 16 inches tall, 15 inches deep. Also note that snow clothing will need to fit in the cubby space with the backpack.

All backpacks will be sanitized on a daily basis. Backpack material may be affected/damaged by the sanitizing spray.

6th Grade

Following Thanksgiving Break we will no longer be rotating teachers through three 6th grade classes. All students will report to and remain with their homeroom teacher for the full school day. The academic material being taught will not be altered but all content will now be covered by the homeroom teacher, Mrs. McInnes or Mr. Beadern. We are saddened that we will not be able to offer a “junior high transition” structure but feel that moving the students back to their homeroom classes and keeping them there for the duration of the school day will be safer for students and staff.

Shannon Wilcox called mtg to order
Discussion of new CC board members- Discussion of those present who would be willing to be on the CC board as chair, co-chair, and secretary. Rachel Trotter agreed to carry on as the Chair, Paul Byrd agreed co-chair and Laurie Pickett agreed to be the secretary. Shannon will ask for more nominations and get info out in the next few weeks as school starts. Voting will occur in the next mtg scheduled.
Schedule regular future CC mtg date/time- After discussion and agreement from those present the regular mtg will be held the last Friday of the month at 10 am via Google meet. We will vote at the next mtg to firm it up.
Q &A-

Bussing? - The boundaries for those who will be bussed are north of 27th Street AND west of Harrison Blvd. Details are in the packets teachers are delivering this week.

How often will info come from school? Wasatch will be sending our calls or emails at least weekly or biweekly during the first 4 weeks.

Ground breaking scheduled for August 21st. Open house style. Info will be coming from the Ogden school district.

Students are to not play on the Wasatch playground after school hours due to Covid restrictions.

The reason the school is providing backpacks are due to the size of the backpack and the school will be doing cleaning and spraying throughout the day and can’t be responsible for nice backpacks getting ruined.

How will lunch work? The class will walk to the lunchroom and get their school lunch and return to the classroom. Those eating home lunch will grab their lunch on the way back to the classroom. They will have 15ish minutes to eat and then as a class will be sent outside for lunch recess. Breakfast will be provided on carts at each entrance where the students will grab a sack and take it to the classroom. There will be no charge for breakfast for any student.

There will be mask breaks throughout the day and masks will not be required at recess. The school has a protocol where the masks will be stored appropriately.

Back to school night will be held August 24th. The student will meet their teacher outside at the door they will be entering and exiting every day.

There will be no room parents or volunteers for at least the first 4 weeks of school.

There was discussion regarding the funding of the two (half time) teachers paid for by land trust $. One being the kindergarten teacher because of the kindergarten class numbers being so low. But those teachers are helping in 5th grade so it was decided to keep the land trust money where allocated at this point in time. (No motion so no vote.)

Next Mtg - August 28th at 10am
Agenda items for next meeting

-Get updated email/phone list of members and parents

-Vote on CC board and future mtg times

Shannon Wilcox called mtg to order
Q &A-

-How many Wasatch students are opting for online? 54 students are registered for online at this point. Numbers might change due to homeschooling students haven’t turned in forms yet.

-How many are enrolled for each grade? There have been changes with the staff due to teachers retiring or opting for online teaching positions. (Revelle and Reitan left for online teaching positions and VanDyke retired.) As of 8/28 enrollment numbers are as follows-

Kinder - 52 (15-16 per class) 3 half day classes.

1-72 (21-22/class)

2- 65 (19-20/class)

3 - 72 (22/class)

4 - 69 (17-23/class)

5- 75 (23/class)

6- 74 (32/class with a staff assistant helping with library, computers, etc.)-

-What happened with the Land trust $ budgeted for the 2 half day teachers ? The budget/$ follows the students so some will go towards students with online school teaching. We will be receiving less $ due to decrease in enrollment. Enrollment will be finalized the first of October.

-Concern with parking on Polk Ave. Parents are parking in community neighbors driveways and blocking driveways. Students are also crossing roads not on the crosswalk. Shannon will send out a phone message and a note or email regarding dropping off/picking up zones and directional map to try and help parents create a safe drop off.

- Are masks required for parents on and around school property? The mask mandate is directed by the governor. Masks are required in the school at all times and on school property if not socially distancing. Sidewalks and crosswalks are city property so different rules apply. It was suggested to let parents know it would be appreciated to wear masks on school property to set a good example for the students.

-NEXT PTA meeting will be held September 4th at 9am at the big pavilion at Mt Ogden Park.

Agenda items for next meeting

-Get updated email/phone list of members and parents

-Vote on CC board

-Shannon will send out a link and email in the next few weeks so more parents are aware and can join CC.

Next CC Mtg - Sept. 25th at 10am

1st Grade: 61%

2nd Grade: 66%

3rd Grade: 73%

Due to the boundary change taking place for the 2020-2021 school year our goal at Wasatch is to have 67% of 1st-3rd grade students achieve Typical or better growth in basic literacy skills as measured by the Acadience Reading EOY Pathways of Progress composite score.

Discussion was held regarding reasons for the slightly lower scores compared to the previous year. The numbers have been very hard to track. There have been 267 student/staff quarantines this year and 200 student enrollment changes since the beginning of the year. Discussion was held as to how the Wasatch CC can help. There will be instructions sent home near the next PTC on how to help our students more at home hopefully taking some burdens off of the teachers. Also we need to thank and encourage our teachers for the good jobs that they are doing. The principal is going to check and see if the attendance is affecting the percentages also.

Initial 2020-2021 Land Trust Plan Discussion

***Calendar Change Last day of school for Wasatch is now May 28

Discussion held of suggestions/ideas of where we would like to see the land trust money allocated for next year:

*People- staff assistant or teachers

*Training for parents for what they can be doing at home to help students make academic progress

*Wonders curriculum- evaluate each grade to see if the need and use is warranted for the purchase.

School Updates

Covid at Wasatch - 1-3 Covid positive cases at the school currently.

Dashboard

Questions/Concerns

-Can the students bring books from home, processes (items)

-Please specify which school the OCSD text is coming from. When parents get messages don’t always know which school they are coming from

-Boundary exception processes, do families need to fill out another one? Shannon W will give more details regarding this.

Next Meeting Topics

-Teacher thoughts on next years plan

-Attendance vs Acadience and CIA data

Adjourn 11:26. Paul B motioned for adjournment and Rachel seconded the motion.

‌Composite‌ ‌Graphs:‌ ‌District‌ ‌/‌ ‌Wasatch‌ ‌

‌Composite/School‌ ‌Comparison‌ ‌

‌The‌ ‌members‌ ‌present‌ ‌went‌ ‌over‌ ‌the‌ ‌composite‌ ‌graphs‌ ‌(above)‌ ‌to‌ ‌look‌ ‌at‌ ‌the‌ ‌questions‌ ‌of‌ ‌where‌ ‌Wasatch‌ ‌Elementary‌ ‌was‌ ‌in‌ ‌the‌ ‌testing‌ ‌compared‌ ‌to‌ ‌the‌ ‌district‌ ‌as‌ ‌a‌ ‌whole‌ ‌and‌ ‌if‌ ‌attendance‌ ‌affected‌ ‌the‌ ‌result‌ ‌of‌ ‌the‌ ‌scores.‌ ‌Wasatch‌ ‌was‌ ‌higher‌ ‌than‌ ‌the‌ ‌district‌ ‌composite‌ ‌as‌ ‌a‌ ‌whole.‌ ‌The‌ ‌school‌ ‌did‌ ‌find‌ ‌a‌ ‌correlation‌ ‌in‌ ‌pathway‌ ‌scores‌ ‌of‌ ‌students‌ ‌that‌ ‌were‌ ‌absent‌ ‌more‌ ‌than‌ ‌7‌ ‌days‌ ‌that‌ ‌DID‌ ‌NOT‌ ‌complete‌ ‌the‌ ‌work‌ ‌sent‌ ‌home‌ ‌or‌ ‌online.‌ ‌These‌ ‌students‌ ‌tested‌ ‌lower.‌ ‌The‌ ‌biggest‌ ‌concern‌ ‌for‌ ‌Wasatch‌ ‌staff‌ ‌was‌ ‌not‌ ‌necessarily‌ ‌the‌ ‌Acadience‌ ‌but‌ ‌the‌ ‌Pathways‌ ‌growth‌ ‌for‌ ‌1st,‌ ‌4th‌ ‌and‌ ‌5th‌ ‌grades.‌ ‌The‌ ‌students‌ ‌are‌ ‌down‌ ‌in‌ ‌reading‌ ‌fluency‌ ‌in‌ ‌these‌ ‌grades‌ ‌especially.‌ ‌The‌ ‌literacy‌ ‌packets‌ ‌are‌ ‌meant‌ ‌to‌ ‌help‌ ‌the‌ ‌students‌ ‌increase‌ ‌in‌ ‌this‌ ‌area.‌ ‌

‌

‌Staff‌ ‌response‌ ‌to‌ ‌21-22‌ ‌Land‌ ‌Trust‌ ‌Plan‌ ‌ ‌

Shannon‌ ‌sent‌ ‌out‌ ‌a‌ ‌survey‌ ‌as‌ ‌to‌ ‌their‌ ‌priorities‌ ‌of‌ ‌land‌ ‌trust‌ ‌money‌ ‌and‌ ‌received‌ ‌25‌ ‌responses‌ ‌from‌ ‌teachers.‌ ‌96%‌ ‌thought‌ ‌that‌ ‌a‌ ‌teacher‌ ‌was‌ ‌very‌ ‌important.‌ ‌Staff‌ ‌assistant‌ ‌was‌ ‌spread‌ ‌out‌ ‌more.‌ ‌The‌ ‌K-3‌ ‌wanted‌ ‌Wonders‌ ‌curriculum‌ ‌but‌ ‌the‌ ‌older‌ ‌classes‌ ‌didn’t‌ ‌necessarily‌ ‌want‌ ‌the‌ ‌books.‌ ‌She‌ ‌asked‌ ‌for‌ ‌suggestions‌ ‌and‌ ‌there‌ ‌were‌ ‌quite‌ ‌a‌ ‌few‌ ‌teachers‌ ‌that‌ ‌suggested‌ ‌an‌ ‌ELD‌ ‌teacher‌ ‌would‌ ‌be‌ ‌very‌ ‌helpful.‌ ‌ ‌

**Shannon‌ ‌if‌ ‌going‌ ‌to‌ ‌check‌ ‌and‌ ‌see‌ ‌what‌ ‌the‌ ‌teachers‌ ‌would‌ ‌want‌ ‌in‌ ‌regards‌ ‌to‌ ‌specific‌ ‌needs‌ ‌and‌ ‌usage‌ ‌of‌ ‌the‌ ‌wonders‌ ‌curriculum.‌ ‌

**She‌ ‌will‌ ‌also‌ ‌get‌ ‌answers‌ ‌as‌ ‌far‌ ‌as‌ ‌her‌ ‌budget‌ ‌and‌ ‌programs‌ ‌to‌ ‌decide‌ ‌if‌ ‌we‌ ‌want‌ ‌to‌ ‌use‌ ‌the‌ ‌land‌ ‌trust‌ ‌money‌ ‌for‌ ‌a‌ ‌regular‌ ‌teacher,‌ ‌staff‌ ‌assistant,‌ ‌ELD‌ ‌teacher‌ ‌and‌ ‌possible‌ ‌PEP‌ ‌teacher.‌ ‌

21-22 Land Trust Plan, due April 11th

WAES 2021-22 LAND Trust Plan Template

Discussion:

Land trust goals: See an improvement on testing by 2 percent.

Looked at assessments and Hiring teachers does help increase scores so we can keep class sizes small.

Discussion of where funding could possibly come from. Funding can come from land trust, Title 1 which we might not get next year due to decreased free and reduced lunch applications from this last fall. There is also possible extra funding from ESSER.

Discussion of possible enrollment and class sizes for next year. It’s projected we will have “475 students” up from the current 425 students enrolled today. The hope would be 3 sections for every grade but at this point the district will not allocate that due to enrollment.

We looked at the land trust plan template and we will be allocated up to $73,000. That is enough to pay for two part time teachers with their specific benefits. With not much extra to fund other options. Shannon will hire a part time ELD teacher with TSSA funds.

The discussion was held to hire a full time teacher vs 2 part time teachers. There would be an extra cost for the full time teachers benefits anywhere from $5000 to $15000 depending on the type of insurance that teacher would pick up.

**A vote was taken in favor of the land trust plan as written hiring two part time teachers with land trust funds.

In favor of the current plan was:

Rachel Trotter, Paul Byrd, Sue Ann Burton, Maren Baumgartner, Karen Keller, Sarah Quistberg, and Laurie Pickett.

There were no objections to the Land Trust Fund for 2021/2022.

School Updates

North Stairs

I was able to get a commitment from our district maintenance department to put in a second set of stairs, on the North side of the fence so that students and staff can use them as they come down from and go up to the parking lot without needing to lock or unlock the gate! I was told they just need to wait for the ground to get warm enough and that they should be in before the end of the school year or for sure before next school year begins.

Trees

We are working with the maintenance department to get some trees planted on the back field.

Buzz in!

We are working to get a “buzz in” button between the two buildings.

Covid at Wasatch

Superintendent Nye will be pushing out information around April 10. All school protocols will remain in place

Playground & Locks

We have had many students breaking the locks on the gates.

All playgrounds are temporarily closed due to Covid.

Please let me know if you see anything.

Playgrounds will be open as soon as Covid restrictions are lifted.

Dashboard

**No covid or quarantine at Wasatch school at this time.

School Updates

Morning (And Afternoon) Safety

Shannon has contacted Jer who contacted the city asking for a traffic study on the West side of the building. The city said they will complete the traffic study. I am hoping for an additional crossing guard or flashing lights.

Discussion with all members present regarding the above concerns of the safety of the students with traffic in the mornings and afternoons when school starts and ends.

Shannon will share with Jer Bates the following ideas and concerns regarding the safety concerns:

-Timeline of new sidewalks

-What does it take to get “red curbing” and/or parking permits for the west side of Polk because that is where the traffic is getting congested and safety issues seem to be occuring for those 5-7 minutes.

-4 way stop at Boughton and Polk

-Crossing guard on Polk at the south end of the school

-Flashing lights on Polk - west side of school

-We need results of the traffic study to really see what the factual problems are.

Suggested to request officers to direct traffic or give tickets for a week.

Suggested a letter/caller to go out again to state the obvious safety concerns with students.

Questions/Concerns

*Additional/longer water breaks as the weather warms up.

*Please check the status of new sinks in building 2 rooms that do not have sinks.

*Testing season- is it effective?

*More well rounded education prior to 2013, missing civics, social studies, concrete ability to learn

Under pressure to improve test scores, seems like response is more testing

Shannon will take the concerns regarding testing/curriculum back to Adam McMickel with the district.

Next Meeting Topics

Assessment, Accountability & Curriculum

Adam McMickell

Adam McMickell discussed the state mandated tests which are:

Kinder pre-assessment and Acadience 3 times a year K-3. The district expands this testing to 4-6th grades. Acadience will be expanded next year with a math portion K-3rd grades.

Rise -state report card - accountability and assessment

District Level - Set # of standards across the district. Common interim and benchmark assessments for accountability, grading and classroom assessment strategies.

*Meeting again at a later date to finish discussion. Shannon will get any questions regarding the curriculum to Adam.

Elections/Members

Every public school in Utah has a School Community Council. The councils are made up of school employees who are elected by employees and parents who are elected by parents of students attending the school. Membership terms are for two years.

Are there at least two more parent/guardian members* (through the remainder of this document referred to as parent members) than school employee members**, including the principal, on the school community council?
2. Are there fewer parents, who are licensed district employees (not employed at the school), than parents who are not licensed district employees?
3. Are there at least two employee members on the SCC, including the principal?
Did the principal (or designee) provide notice of an election that included the dates and times of the election with the positions up for election and instructions for becoming a candidate? Was the notice provided at least ten days in advance of the election?

**There will be a 3 way stop on Boughton and Taylor. No other decisions have been made, Daniel (Ogden city) and Jared, Ken Crawford (OCSD) said they’re dedicated to a solution before the start of the new school year.

Sinks

I do know the request for sinks in the new building would not be possible. The construction is slab on grade, which means we have no crawl space under the building for drain lines, or water lines.

Basketball Hoops

I will look at the other request and see what we can do.

Fence

From a safety standpoint the taller fence would be the priority of the other two requests. I will make a site visit up to Wasacth and see what can be done.

*Wasatch will be getting a higher fence on the north side near the playground so balls will not be going into the residences back yard. (Whites)

Questions/Concerns

Playground will be open after school is out for the summer as long as Covid protocols stay the same.

Class plan for next year:

2 teachers for Kinder, 3 teachers for grades 1st - 6th. Wasatch will be needing 2 new 5th grade teachers and 1 6th grade teacher.

Next Meeting Topics

Get curriculum questions to Adam before we meet with him again. See discussion above.
