Public Input will provide an opportunity for any Board Member, administrator, staff

without comment, except to ask germane questions of those speaking. Comments should be
limited to 3 minutes. The Board will take no action relative to any items during the meeting,
but may direct the Superintendent to consider such an item at a subsequent meeting.
Joseph Bodily - Public Relations Coordinator for BHS informed the Board that the carpet is
finished and the design turned out better than thought. The students are exited and express
their appreciation and support to the Board. I invite all of you to come to BHS and see the
new carpet.
Caroline Mackay – reads a statement on teachers pay not going up and putting
administrators back in the class room and not hire subs.
Terri Jansma – BHS teacher voted against the negotiation package – wondering where is
the money.
Diane Pierce – Title 1 teacher at Ucon is upset that the district is going from using certified
teachers to using assistants. This is all about NCLB, if we start cutting back in the wrong
places, we are going to leave children behind. Title 1 has made a difference in our district. If
we don’t help them by third grade it will be so hard to help them. We have done away with
every Title 1 teacher in the district and replace them with assistants. I appeal to the Board to
look and dig and try to help find a way to save the program that is worth saving.
Peggy Christensen – Ucon elementary, teachers would like a fair and equitable contract and
like to settle.
Dale Mortimer – BHS teacher would like to know what has happened with the survey we
took on line; what were the results.
