The second, later monthly meeting of the Blue Ridge School Board is usually a workshop, to prepare for a business session the week following. The meeting scheduled for November 24th was converted to a business session, perhaps because the one the following week, and the last scheduled for the year, is planned as a reorganization meeting.

Whatever. It was a business meeting, provisioned with delicious corn chowder containing tender chunks of chicken prepared by food service manager Linda Cole-Koloski, accompanied by thick slabs of homemade bread courtesy of Lorrie Detwiler, and lots of butter to slather thereon.

Board President Laurie Brown-Bonner bracketed the public meeting with executive sessions that she said covered discussions about the hiring of a new business manager, and a student disciplinary matter.

But before the business got under way, Middle/High School Principal Matthew Nebzydoski introduced some members of the Lady Raiders volleyball team, PIAA 2-A champs with a record of 12 and 3. Ms. Brown-Bonner read out a resolution congratulating the team and commending the players and coach Lori Zick for their representation of Blue Ridge.

The 11-point agenda was quickly disposed of. It included 3 contracts for van transportation. There were no dollar amounts in the contracts as listed with the agenda. One of the contracts was with Christina Cosmello, a member of the School Board. Ms. Cosmello routinely abstains from votes related to her and her family’s school bus transportation businesses.

The Board approved a contract with Northeast Services, LLC for professional services. According to Superintendent Robert McTiernan, Northeast Services is a private investigations firm used by the District to verify residency when a student’s eligibility for enrollment at Blue Ridge is questioned.

The Board also accepted a request of the High School Music Department for a performance trip next Spring to Orlando, Florida. Choristers will perform at a resort, and the concert band will participate in a performance clinic provided by faculty of the University of Central Florida. According to a letter from Band Director Vincent LoRusso, the trip will cost about $750 per participating student, most of which is already covered by fundraising.

There were a number of routine personnel actions.

Three sets of changes to the District’s policy manual were recommended following 30-day review periods. The policy changes affect sections on Comprehensive Planning, Academic Standards, and Graduation Requirements. Some of the changes simply bring policy in line with current law and regulation, and add clarification in some spots. However, there are some curiosities. Under Academic Standards, a line that read “Reading, Writing, Speaking and Listening” was replaced with one that says “English Language Arts.” Another that read “World Languages” was stricken entirely.

The section on Graduation Requirements provoked some debate at prior meetings, particularly a new requirement for community service. That requirement has since been eliminated. Board member Shane Rumage later said that he voted against the measure approving the policy changes because he thinks that community service should be required of all students. “I lost,” he said. Have some soup, Shane.

The next meeting of the Blue Ridge School Board – and the last of 2014 -- is scheduled for Tuesday (note, NOT Monday), December 2, beginning at 7:00pm in the cafeteria in the Elementary School. Soup and salad is not guaranteed. Sometimes there are only cookies. But on a cold evening.

At the November 26th Susquehanna County Commissioners meeting Commissioners Hall and Giangrieco were present. The issue of immigration was a topic of discussion as well as the issue of replacing the Court House roof. Other topics included the appointment of five new, part time corrections officers.

At the prior meeting held by the commissioners they approved the development of 5 new part time corrections officers in order to cover time off by full time corrections officers. During this meeting the positions were filled. Per the recommendation of Warden Shelp the new officers were approved to begin this month with a six-month probationary period. Also approved for the Susquehanna Correctional facility was the purchase of a new gas dryer at the cost of $3,700 from the general fund. The amount of $17,999 will also be spent out of the general fund for purchasing a 2012 Ford Escape XLT 4x4 from Simons Rockwell in Hallstead to be used for county business.

A motion was made to authorize the signing of a proposal from DBA Architects in Clark Summit for the repairs needed on a section of the Susquehanna Country Courthouse in the amount of $14,800. When questioned about the cost, Commissioner Hall stated that this was for the Architect to develop the designs and drawings, obtain the permits, put the job out for bid to contractors and then make a recommendation to the Commissioners. Commissioner Giangrieco questioned if this step was necessary at this cost, since a roofing contractor should be able to tell them what needs to be done and obtain the permits. Commissioner Hall’s response was that there are issues with the roof that an architect would be able to outline and design reconstruction plans for, as well as do all the work of putting it out for bid and make sure it’s done right. Commissioner Giangieco was not convinced this was an expense the county needed and asked the issue to be tabled until a roofing contractor could be contacted and get an opinion as to whether this job could be done without an architect. The issue was table pending further research.

The commissioners also approved the purchase of one ARC/GIS Server Jumpstart from Environment Systems Research Institution (ESRI) in the amount of $8,800 to be paid from the Act 13 funding. This purchase is for a program that will interface the 911 with GPS, creating a more productive system. On the agenda also was to put out a bid for garbage removal from the Susquehanna County Recycling Center. This motion was approved and bids will be opened at the December 24th meeting. Bids for equipment maintenance for 2015 and 2016 were opened and tabled for review until the December 10th meeting.

A motion was made to approve Resolution 2014-17, which is a resolution for Susquehanna County to protect the health, safety, and security of its citizens and community. When asked what this resolution was intended for, Commissioner Hall explained that it opposes the relocation of illegal immigrants to Pennsylvania, but more specifically to Susquehanna County. Upon further explanation he stated “100,000 illegal immigrants are set to be relocated to PA from boarder holding camps per the Federal Government, via the new Executive order”.

As the meeting was coming to a close it was brought to the attention of the Commissioners that Chesapeake was now charging a fee to land owners that signed contracts with them, and not paying royalties to these people to cover these production fees and some people were actually ending up owing money to Chesapeake for the added production fee. The Commissioners stated they were not aware of this issue and that no one had brought it to their attention. The Commissioners suggested that these people contact an attorney for advice on the matter.

At this time the meeting was adjourned. The next Commissioners meeting will be held December 10th at 9:00 am in the Commissioners meeting room at the Susquehanna County Courthouse.

One of the first items on the agenda at the November 24th Mountain View School Board meeting was to recognize Ivy Simons for her 23 years of service to the district. Mrs. Voigt stated that it was important to recognize her years of dedication, and called Ms. Simons forward to present her with a clock. Ms. Simons thanked her, calling them great years. She said she had some great administrators through the years, great boards and phenomenal educators, and that the board did a phenomenal job whether it was up or down. She said retirement was great too, but she did miss everybody. She and Mrs. Voigt hugged.

A representative from PSBA, Zachary Pearce, was present. He had come to recognize years of service for board members. He said he was the point of contact for them at the association. He handed around a flier about Buy Boards. This was an exclusive partnership between the National School Board Association and the Pennsylvania School Board Association. It allowed school districts to increase their buying power. It cost the district absolutely nothing (as a member of the association) to participate. The company made their money on a percentage of the purchase. The district would then not have to create an RFP. Mr. Pearce strongly recommended that they sign up for it. It would take a resolution of the board to opt into it.

Mr. Pearce then made a presentation of what they called the PSBA honor roll. What it was supposed to be was recognition of even years of service, done every four years after a person reached eight years. The system was supposed to create a certificate. Mr. Pearce said he wanted to note that they came from membership too, and he knew well the amount of hours it took to do the job of a school board director. He said his hat was off to them, on behalf of the association. He had been asked to read a prepared comment, which spoke about the Pennsylvania School Board and the work of the directors. He had two certificates to give out that evening, one to Mrs. Aherne for eight years of service. The other was presented to someone who should have been given it the year prior, he said. It was recognition for sixteen years of service, but Mr. Stoddard was actually at seventeen years of service.

A varsity basketball coach asked if it was the proper time to bring up an incident that came up with practice, during the first hearing of visitors. Mr. Stoddard said that  the second hearing would be a better time, as it wasn’t on the agenda.

A motion was made to approve various staff matters. Deborah Andzulis was approved as a paraprofessional substitute. Katie Ross was appointed as Girls’ Assistant Basketball Co-Coach. Luke Gorham and Raymond Mitchell were approved as Track Assistant Coaches. Joseph Demanicor was approved as a Junior High Baseball Coach.

Various sports volunteers were approved as well.

Todd Calabro was approved as a long-term substitute for having served more than 30 consecutive days as a high school science substitute, effective November 24th of that year.

A negotiation session was scheduled for December 9th, under labor relations.

Mrs. Voigt, during the administrators’ comments, showed off the plaque the elementary school received as an award for the most Thanksgiving Theme award in the 2014 Battle of the School’s can sculpture competition. They also received a certificate for participating in the contest, which was part of the Feed a Friend.

Mrs. Voigt spoke up to congratulate Erica Lewis, who was voted Coach of the Year. It was her first year at the district coaching girls’ soccer. It was the fourth year this team had won districts.

The Scholastic Bowl team had competed the Friday previous, and made it to the semifinal rounds, she related. Mrs. Martens was really excited about the seniors. She was able to find some really strong students who had not been very active, and they were hooked now. She said that Mountain View always represented the school well.

This was the week of feasts, it was said. Mrs. Voigt spoke about a few events. The next day the high school had the staff serving the students at the cafeteria. The consumer sciences department was also scheduled to have a dine in event, and they were asking the educators to eat with the students.

Mountain View was scheduled to participate in a Safe Schools survey. The state was piloting it. It would not cost them anything, but they would be getting the results.

They were also looking into possibly getting a doctor to come up and help with the schedules at both buildings. Mrs. Voigt shared that they had basically the same type of schedule for the 22 years she had been there. It was thought that it might be time to have the faith and courage to construct a brand new schedule.

Each student was scheduled to receive a book on online safety. The book included information on online bullying and other ways students were getting into trouble. Lexi Konsur at the IU was someone who could deliver online training. The district would like to have a program for the students in school, and then have a parent program at night- and send the books home around those events.

During the second hearing of visitors, the coach again stood up to speak. He had an incident the day previous, when they had practice scheduled at the elementary. He couldn’t get in, and the janitor told them they weren’t practicing that day. He said it wasn’t the first time this had occurred. First of all he thought it was uncalled for to be treated rudely like that, it would have been okay if the janitor had apologized and explained it was a mix-up. There had also been numerous times they’d been told they had to get out early. He said they were there for the kids, and that was why he coached. He wondered how the coaches could be entrusted with taking care of the children, and yet they couldn’t be trusted with disarming the alarms and then arming them and closing the door. He asked why they had to rely on the custodians to be able to practice. The girls played games on Monday, he explained. They had Saturday off and often practiced on Sundays. He said he’d always been brought up to treat people with respect, and that was all he asked for. He wanted to bring the matter to the board’s attention. He confirmed that the year prior he had been asked to leave early. The janitors’ said their time was up, their schedule was up, and they wanted to go home. He said practice was scheduled on School Dude.

The coach continued, saying he felt bad for the girls who kept coming up and he had to tell them he was sorry, they couldn’t get into the gym. Mr. Kilmer asked if this was the first time they had it scheduled and had been told it wasn’t scheduled. The coach replied that it was, but it was also the first week of practice. Mr. Richmond said part of the problem was the number of hands scheduling had to go through. The assistant coach was also there, and said that they were at the meeting to talk about a better way to do it, as they had been told the principal hadn’t approved the practice even though it was on the system. Mr. Taylor had been contacted by the custodian, it was said, and had told him to not let them in. Mr. Richmond said that at other schools the Athletic Director approved practice schedules.

It was explained that Mr. Taylor had to approve the scheduling to make sure janitors were there, and it also had to be approved by the principal and the athletic director. The assistant coach asked why they had to have a custodian present. A visitor spoke about arming and disarming the alarms, etc. Mr. Stoddard said that with a regularly scheduled practice, there was no reason why that couldn’t be accommodated.

The problem appeared to be that the practice in question wasn’t fully approved. Ms. Simons said that if Mrs. Kelly didn’t get a chance to approve something on the schedule, Mr. Taylor could override it. It was said though, that if there was a substitute on, and if that substitute’s work was done he might leave, saying there was no reason for him to sit around if he had nothing to do. If Mr. Taylor had looked on the schedule and not seen the approval, he could have denied it. Mr. Stoddard said he could see that up to a point, unless there was a coach and a team waiting. A visitor said that on Friday the lead custodian left a list for the weekenders, as they didn’t get access to the computer. He was assuming that the custodian might have made plans ahead of time, as he didn’t see anything scheduled and therefore assumed nobody was there. He was assuming that’s what had happened.

Mrs. Voigt said that they would make sure it was okay in the future. Another coach present pointed out the issue that a practice could go through on School Dude at the same time the custodians left. It had been suggested that it would work better if a schedule stayed consistent, but this coach noted that in the winter it wouldn’t be possible to always be the same. He said School Dude had some flexibility issues, since School Dude had to go out on Friday, practice couldn’t be changed on Friday. He suggested that maybe they could block off time for varsity sports, as the coaches communicated with each other quite a bit. Mr. Stoddard asked if it was a good idea to have the AD, the coaches, and Mr. Taylor meet together to try and talk about the best way to do this. The second coach opined that the system in place was really rigid.

The first coach noted that they did have a phone chain in place with the girls for when there were weather issues. Mr. Stoddard said that they shouldn’t have been treated rudely or unprofessionally.

Another visitor spoke up, saying that she had something a little more pleasant to speak on. She said that she had felt very fortunate to have the expertise of Mrs. Voigt filling in. She proposed that to be a good night to recognize her (it happened to be her birthday). Mr. Stoddard said she had done a fantastic job under sometimes difficult circumstances, adding God bless her. Mrs. Voigt said the staff , students and board were great in the district, and that it had been a very positive experience. Those present applauded.
