Subject: Approve the 2018 Certified Tax Roll
Executive Summary: The Brazoria County Tax Office has provided a Certified Roll Jurisdiction Summary (TC 502C Report) to serve as the district’s 2018 Certified Tax Roll. The TC 502C Report provides summary information for the district’s market values, exemptions, certified taxable value and tax levy. The last page of the documentation is a worksheet prepared by the district’s business office to verify the mathematical accuracy of the TC 502C Report by reconciling the district’s market value to the district’s tax levy utilizing the tax rate adopted by the school board on September 11, 2018. In accordance with Section 26.09(e) of the Texas Property Tax Code, the report generated by the Brazoria County Tax Office is being submitted to the governing body to be approved as the 2018 Tax Roll.

Subject: Approve Copier Contract with Dahill through Choice Partners Cooperative Contract
#17/026KH-10.
Executive Summary: The district has 68 copiers with contracts that have recently terminated or are near termination with Dahill through various cooperatives. We have negotiated a new contract for 69 copiers with Dahill (through Choice Partners cooperative contract #17/026KH-10) resulting in an overall annual savings of $83,146.60 or $415,733 over the five-year term. The following are the major highlights of the new contract:
The copier fleet paid with district-wide funds for 52 of the copiers is reduced from $444,607 per year to $372,785
o This contract allows for unlimited black copies and provides an allowance of 666,000 color copies – the prior contract had an unlimited black copy allowance on only 22 of the 52 copiers and no color copy allowance
o The model for the campus fleet (Black only) for 22 copiers is improving from a D95 to a D110, allowing 15 additional copies per minute
o The model for the campus fleet (Black and Color) for 28 copiers is improving from a W7530 to a C8045, allowing an additional 15 copies per minute
o The copiers at PACE and PJHE are also improving to models that allow 25 and 20 additional copies per minute, respectively.
o Color copier models under this new contract allow us to pool the total number of color copies made rather than charge overage per click/per allowance
o The per-click amount for overage charges on color copies is lower
The copier fleet paid with individual department/campus funds for 16 of the copiers is reduced from a total cost of $69,047 per year to $57,722 (including one additional copier)
o Adds one copier for the Outreach department
o This contract allows for 1,284,000 black copies and 295,200 color copies – increasing by 172,800 and 134,200, respectively
o The speed of models for most new copiers is increasing (these vary by campus/department need)
o The allowance for black and color copies are pooled, rather than charging excess

per click/allowance
o The per click amount for black and color overages is reduced under the new contract
The total cost of the new contract is $430,507. Please see attachment for cost and other breakdown information.
Purchasing performed a request for quotes with two other vendors through Choice Partners Coop in addition to Dahill for copier lease, allowances, maintenance, and supply costs.
Pinnacle Office Group did not respond to the request.
Office System of Texas only provided a quote for copier lease without any reference to a maintenance plan, copy allowances or supplies. Purchasing did reach out asking for an apples to apples quote, however, they did not provide any additional information.
Purchases are in compliance with Texas Education Code Ch. 44.031 Purchasing Contracts and CH Local Policy.

MEMORANDUM TO: Dr. John Kelly
FROM: Jorgannie Carter, CPA
SUBJECT: 2017-2018 Audited Financial Statements
DATE: October 31, 2018
The auditors have delivered a draft of the 2017-2018 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) to be presented to the school board during the November 13, 2018 board meeting. From a financial standpoint, these audited financial statements reflect another very successful year. Such an excellent financial report is not only to the credit of the business office but also to all campuses and departments with major financial responsibilities. Every page of the CAFR is important; however, reading and comprehending the report can be challenging. In order to give readers an understanding of this report, we have prepared the 2017-2018 Annual Financial Report Summary, which highlights and explains in an easy to understand format the most significant items within the report. In addition, the following chart includes references to CAFR information that you might find most meaningful.

This section includes the District's narrative overview and analysis of financial activities of the district for the year ended June 30, 2018
18 Balance Sheet - Governmental Funds
Indicates the assets, liabilities, and fund balances for the General Fund, Debt Service Fund, Capital Projects Fund and Other Governmental Funds (which are identified in more detail on pages 74-77)
20 Statement of Revenues and Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balance - Governmental Funds
The General Fund's fund balance increased by $1.3 million; the ending fund balance as of June 30, 2018 is $52.1 million, which represents a 3.5 month or 108-day operating reserve based on the original 2018-2019 school year budget of $175.4 million. The Debt Service Fund’s fund balance increased by $3.2 million due to the premium on the sale of 2017 Series Bonds; the fund balance of $22.4 million is artificially high because it contains the tax collections necessary to make the August 15, 2018 interest payment of $8.4 million. The remaining fund balance of $12 million is adequate for servicing the total bonded debt payable on the 2018-2019 fiscal year.

Page Section Description of Information
(continued from prior page) The fund balance for the Capital Projects Fund is composed of remaining proceeds from the sale of Series 2017 Bonds and is anticipated to be spent during the 2018-2019 fiscal year.

68 Schedule of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balance – General Fund
Compares budgeted to actual revenues and expenditures for the General Fund. All sources of revenues exceeded budgeted revenues and all expenditures were within the approved budget for all functions of the General Fund.
74 Combining Balance Sheet and Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balance – Non-Major Governmental Funds
These detail all funds considered to be non-major (less than 10%); which include all Special Revenue Funds, including Food Service Fund
82 Schedule of Delinquent Taxes Receivable
The current year’s collection rate is a healthy 98.7% as determined by the following calculation:
Maintenance and Debt Service Total Collections ($76,768,891+27,725,380) divided by the Current Year’s Total Levy and the Entire Year Adjustments ($99,943,660+5,949,684)
84 Optimum Fund Balance Line 12, reflects the administration’s calculation of the district’s “Optimum Fund Balance” utilizing the formula developed by the state. Through designations of fund balance for construction, renovations, instructional technology and contingencies for storms and hurricanes in the totals of Lines 4 and 5, the district demonstrated that the actual reserve of $52.1 million noted on Line 1 is not in excess of the calculated optimum fund balance of $54.7 million noted on Line 12.
85 Comparison of Budgeted to Actual Revenues and Expenditures – Food Service Fund
For the fiscal year, revenues exceeded expenditures by $220,402. The ending fund balance of $2,762,317 represents 28% of next year’s budgeted operating expenditures which equates to a 103-day operating reserve, which slightly exceeds the USDA’s maximum limit of a 25% or 90-day operating reserve.

Subject: Consider to Approve Pay Increase for Bus Drivers and Budget Amendment
Executive Summary: Administration is recommending the approval of an increase to bus driver pay for the 2018-2019 year for recruiting and retention purposes.
Bus driver employment has continuously been an area of concern for the district this school year. We compete for bus drivers in a very aggressive market containing private sector companies and area school districts. Since 2015, we have increased bus driver pay 5.9% and specifically in 2017-2018 made over $50,000 in adjustments increasing driver pay. This path has allowed us to recruit and retain an adequate number of drivers up to this point.
Beginning with the 2018-2019 year, we have seen recruitment and retention of bus drivers decline to the point of starting school 13 drivers short, requiring all transportation personnel to drive daily. To assist the department, recruitment efforts were made through advertisement, news and social media outlets and sign-on and referral bonuses. While all efforts were mildly successful, the minimum average rate paid by surrounding districts appears to be the largest factor affecting our recruitment and retention. By increasing current bus driver pay by $1.00/hr., the district will be in a more competitive spot to recruit and retain bus drivers for the remainder of the year. We acknowledge this may not be a permanent solution, so additional efforts including auxiliary job fairs and walk-in interview times are being explored.
Administration recommends to amend the 2018-2019 budget, increasing Function 34 (student transportation) expenditures by $165,000, to cover the cost of the increase to starting and current bus driver pay by $1.00/hour for the remainder of the 2018-19 school year.
The new minimum hourly rate for bus drivers will increase from $15.50 to $16.50 per hour.

Subject: Report on Campus Accountability Plans (CAP)
Executive Summary: The Accountability System for the State of Texas is a constantly evolving process; districts enter the school year still learning about expectations and developing plans. Principals are charged with understanding the system and meeting the needs of a diverse student population. To support principals in meeting and exceeding accountability standards, the C & I Department developed a process to assist in understanding the system and developing a plan, identifying campus strengths and areas of concern, and outlining a plan to address student needs. Because the Campus Accountability Plan (CAP) is a locally designed process, it is updated annually based on the constantly changing Texas Education Accountability System. This year it was amended to address the A-F rating system.
Principals are given a CAP template to help them understand the Accountability System that covers campus data, demographics, as well as intervention plans. Each principal is scheduled for a time to present their plan to a committee composed of the Senior Assistant Superintendent of Instructional Programs, the grade-level supervising Senior Assistant Superintendent, and the Directors of Curriculum and Instruction, Testing, Technology ,Bilingual, and Special Education. The principal presents information and the campus plan; plans are adjusted, additional financial and manpower resources may be provided in addition to the opportunity for feedback. This creates a collaborative and supportive environment as needed between departments and campuses.
The Board will hear a presentation from the Curriculum and Instruction Department and Pearland High School Principal John Palombo at the board meeting.
This agenda item helps fulfill SB1566, charging trustees with monitoring student performance initiatives

student achievement goals and expectations for student learning.
The Accountability Plan should include the following:
Summary of student assessment data from the prior year
Key results the campus wants to achieve that are appropriately
ambitious for student growth but achievable
Strategies outlined that logically support achievement of results
Appropriate focus on advancing progress for the students that are
the furthest behind

List students that currently meet the eligibility requirements to participate in the STAAR
Alternate assessment. Identifying students that meet the eligibility criteria is for planning
purposes – assigning a student to a particular assessment is an ARD committee decision. Refer
to TEA’s STAAR Alternate Participation Requirements for specific eligibility criteria.

Assurance The decision to administer an alternate assessment (STAAR Alternate) is made by the ARD
committee, not administratively based on federal accountability requirements which limit the
number of students taking an alternate assessment who can be counted as proficient in
performance calculations. Although alternate assessments are intended for a small number of
students, the proficiency caps do not limit the number of students receiving special education
services who may take an alternate assessment (TEA, 2012).

Subject: Updated Fall Report on 2016-2020 Pearland ISD Strategic Plan
Executive Summary: The district’s strategic plan is well underway. That plan was originally developed by a large group of district leaders including trustees, district administrators, campus principals, and others. It is designed to guide district efforts from mid-2016 to May 2020. The previous update to the plan was disseminated to the board in June 2018. Per trustee request, the plan is re-distributed to the board for their use. Furthermore, the superintendent has had key members of the district administration review it again (October 2018) and add any further updates reflecting the continued work this fall. This latest update (containing “old” and new developments) can be found at the following link: Update on Strategic Plan
