Re: Glenbrook Stories - March 18, 2019

MEMO

Our Glenbrook Stories segment on March 18 will feature GBN junior Allanah Elster,

who will share a view of the recent V-Show through her lens.

Elster auditioned for the V-Show just like everyone else - except she brought along a

video and projected her talent for the casting directors. “I thought some cinematic art

would help to put a little “variety” in the “V” show,” said Elster, who was cast and

featured prominently in the show “Warrior.”

The video, “Now that I am older,” features a woman who finds freedom in her older age

and features music from the rock band Wilderado. The band even reached out to Elster

directly, stating how much they enjoyed the video.

Elster is an aspiring filmmaker who also gained invaluable experience interning with

Apple last summer as part of its Chicago Summer Stories program. It was there that

Elster elevated her experience in the filmmaking process, from inception to the final

product. The documentary she and her team produced illustrated how generation Z is

innovating within their respective industries and it was screened at the Chicago Apple

Store for a live audience.

This story represents passion, innovation, and creativity, applied to a long-standing

V-show tradition in the Glenbrooks.

RE: FOIA Requests

FOIA Response: Please see the attached email response. Responsive documents can be found online at http://il.glenbrook.schoolboard.net/board. (Responsive documents will not be attached to the all documents pdf, but can be found under the FOIA agenda item.) Background: The Freedom of Information Act (FOIA - 5 ILCS 140/1 et seq.) is a state statute that provides the public the right to access government documents and records. A person can ask a public body for a copy of its records on a specific subject and the public body must provide those records, unless there is an exemption in the statute that protects those records from disclosure (for example: records containing information concerning student records or personal privacy). A public body must respond to a FOIA request within 5 business days after the public body receives the request or 21 business days if the request is for commercial purpose. That time period may be extended for an additional 5 business days from the date of the original due date if: • The requested information is stored at a different location; • The request requires the collection of a substantial number of documents; • The request requires an extensive search; • The requested records have not been located and require additional effort to find; • The requested records need to be reviewed by staff who can determine whether they are exempt from FOIA; • The requested records cannot be produced without unduly burdening the public body or interfering with its operations; or • The request requires the public body to consult with another public body who has substantial interest in the subject matter of the request. If additional time is needed, the public body must notify the requester in writing within 5 business days after the receipt of the request of the statutory reasons for the extension and when the requested information will be produced.

Rosanne Marie Williamson <[email protected]> Thu, Feb 28, 2019 at 2:38 PMTo: Michal Dwojak <[email protected]>Bcc: [email protected]

Dear Mr. Dwojak: Pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act (“FOIA”), on February 14, 2019, you requested the disclosure of certain public records as follows:

I would like to request all public forms of public communication, including but not limited to email, sent or received by Glenbrook South Director of Athletics Steve Rockrohr ([email protected] ) or other Glenbrook South administrators referencing Robert Rosinski, a former school baseball coach and current physical education teacher, from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2013.

I would like to request all public forms of public communication, including but not limited to email, sent or received by Robert Rosinski ([email protected]) from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2013.

I would also like to request all public forms of public communication, including but not limited to email, sent or received by Glenbrook South Director of Athletics Steve Rockrohr ([email protected] ) or other Glenbrook South administrators from Kerry Elizabeth, from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2013. .

On February 21, the School District extended its time to respond to the request. On February 25, 2019 we discussed the scope of your request and the burden it places on the School District, given its vague and categorical boundaries and the voluminous records responsive to the request. We discussed narrowing the scope by further limiting the timeframe and by providing particular phrases or keywords that might limit the number of results. You agreed to further limit the timeframe to January 1, 2012 to March 1, 2013 for each request, but declined to otherwise limit the scope of the correspondence you seek by keyword, phrase or other limiting characteristic. Response

Request 1 …all public forms of public communication, including but not limited to email, sent or received by Glenbrook South Director of Athletics Steve Rockrohr ([email protected] ) or other Glenbrook South administrators referencing Robert Rosinski, a former school baseball coach and current physical education teacher, from January 1, 2012 to [March 1, 2013].

3/11/2019 Glenbrook High School District 225 Mail - 02.14.19 Dwojak FOIA Response


Some records have been withheld or redacted as exempt pursuant to the following exemptions in the FOIA: Sec. 7(1)(a) (Information specifically prohibited from disclosure by federal or State law or rules and regulations implementing federal or State law, including confidential student record information pursuant to 5 ILCS 140/7(1)(a) and 7.5(r) and 105 ILCS 10/6(a) and 20 U.S.C. § 1232g; Sec. 7(1)(f) (“[p]reliminary drafts, notes, recommendations, memoranda and other records in which opinions are expressed, or policies or actions are formulated…”); Sec. 7(1)(n) (investigatory records or communications); and Sec 7(1)(c) (unwarranted invasion of personal privacy).

Request 2 …all public forms of public communication, including but not limited to email, sent or received by Robert Rosinski ([email protected]) from January 1, 2012 to [March 1, 2013].

Response This categorical request is denied as unduly burdensome. For the 15-month time period, we have located over 1800 responsive emails. As you know, the primary work performed by School District employees concerns confidential student matters. To review, cull, redact and protect confidential student records and other exempt information from 1800 records would require an estimated minimum of 50 hours of manual labor. Such burden would unduly disrupt the primary duties of School District’s staff.

Request 3 … all public forms of public communication, including but not limited to email, sent or received by Glenbrook South Director of Athletics Steve Rockrohr ([email protected] ) or other Glenbrook South administrators from Kerry Elizabeth, from January 1, 2012 to [March 1, 2013].

Response No documents responsive to this request.

Should you believe that this response is an unlawful denial of your request, you may file a request for review with the Public Access Counselor (“PAC”) pursuant to §9.5 of FOIA. You can file your Request for Review with the PAC at the Office of the Attorney General, 500 South 2nd Street, Springfield, IL 62706 or by calling 1-877-299-FOIA. You also have the right to seek judicial review of your denial by filing a lawsuit in the Circuit Court pursuant to §11 of FOIA.

From: Dr. R.J. Gravel Date: Monday, March 18, 2019 Re: Student Fees for the 2019-20 School Year Recommendation It is recommended that the Board of Education approve student fees for the 2019-20 school year as presented. Background In accordance with Board Policy 4040, the Board of Education is presented each year with a list of recommended student fees for approval. Several of the fees presented in this document will be reviewed in detail by the Board of Education and/or the Finance Committee separately, and are simply summarized here. These fees, indicated with a yellow cell, include the Chromebook and transportation fee. General Fees All students attending Glenbrook High Schools, or receiving educational services through the school district are assessed two general fees: Chromebook fee, registration fee.

Historical Proposed

2015-16 2016-17 2017-18 2018-19 2019-20

Chromebook Fee $110.00 4 Years

$110.00 4 Years

Registration Fee $25.50 $25.50

Towel Fee $10.50 $10.50 $10.50

Total per Student $135.50 $135.50 $125.50 $125.50 $125.50 * Due to lower purchase costs for the Chromebook starting with the 2018-19 school year, the fee will only be assessed for (3) years as opposed to (4) years. This will apply to the Classes of 2022 and 2023.

Student Fees for the 2019-20 School Year Page 2

User Fees Additional user fees are assessed to students and families upon request. These fees are deposited into District revenue accounts and used for the purpose designated. The majority of our user fees are calculated based on the total amount of estimated expenses for the upcoming school year. Please note that the transportation fee proposed represents an increase that corresponds to a 3% increase in service costs for next fiscal year from our provider, and adjustments to our current bus pass rate structure. This amount was discussed and recommended by the Finance Committee on February 6, 2019.

Student Fees for the 2019-20 School Year Page 3

Preschool Tuition Historically pre-school tuition fees have been calculated at a rate of $160.00 per day of enrollment in the program. Fees are assessed twice a year for each child. Children enrolled in Glenbrook’s program benefit from a 2-hour laboratory preschool experience supervised by a full-time instructional assistant, with the assistance and support of students enrolled in child development courses.

Historical Proposed

2014-15 2015-16 2017-18 2018-19 2019-20

Preschool Tuition (5 Days / Week) Per Semester - GBN $800.00 $800.00 $800.00 $800.00 $800.00

Preschool Tuition (4 Days / Week) Per Semester - GBS $640.00 $640.00 $640.00 $640.00 $640.00

Preschool Tuition (3 Days / Week) Per Semester- GBS $480.00 $480.00 $480.00 $480.00 $480.00

Financial Fees The Board of Education has historically approved two financial fees to be charged on an as-needed basis. Credit Card Convenience Fee The credit card convenience fee is assessed to all credit card transactions that are processed in-person or online. Beginning with the 2017-18 school year, the Board of Education determined that any credit card processing expenses would be passed-on to consumers choosing to use a credit card. This transition was communicated to parents prior to the start of the school year, and has resulted in a significant cost savings to the District. As a result of not incurring credit card processing expenses, we have been able to keep student fees as low as possible for our families. Non-Sufficient Funds (NSF) Check Fee The non-sufficient funds (NSF) check fee is assessed to a student account in the event that a check provided has been returned back our bank due to insufficient funds. Only the amount that is charged by the bank will be passed on to a student.

Historical Proposed

2014-15 2015-16 2017-18 2018-19 2019-20

Credit Card Convenience Fee Online Transactions $2.50 $2.65

Mr. Ryan Manly Date: Monday, March 18, 2019 Re: Class of 2023 Chromebook Purchase Recommendation It is recommended that the Board of Education approve the purchase of 1,400 Lenovo 500e Chromebooks with the Google Chrome Management License from Computer Drive at a cost of $413,000. Background For the past five years, the District has selected the Lenovo Chromebook for the 1:1 initiative. The first four years the District selected the most recent iteration of the Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 11e Chromebook (11e) which performed extremely well with regard to durability and functionality. In June 2018 Lenovo was announced their intent to stop production of the 11e. In its place, they launched a new product, the Lenovo 500e Chromebook. Like the 11e, the 500e has been extremely durable and features spill-proof keyboards and touchpads, mechanically anchored keys, rubber bumpers around the LCD and base, Gorilla Glass, reinforced ports, corners and hinges. From a technical specification perspective, both devices include Intel Apollo Lake processors, 4GB of memory, 32GB of internal storage. The price last year for a 500e was $268.94 or approximately $71 less than the 11e. Three vendors submitted a quote for the purchase of 1,400 chromebooks and associated management licenses. Following is a summary of the results.

Lenovo 500e Hardware

Google Chrome Management

License Total Unit Price Total Cost

(1,400 units)

CDW $285.00 $23.50 $308.50 $431,900

PCM $298.46 $23.00 $321.46 $450,044

Class of 2023 Chromebook Purchase

Page 2

Chromebook Fee The annual Chromebook fee is assessed to all students (up to a maximum of 4 years) for the use of a Chromebook during their high school career. After making the designated amount of payments, the Chromebook becomes property of the student. Given the reduced price of the 500e, the Class of 2022 was the first class to be assessed a three year fee rather than a four year fee.

Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 4-Year Total

Class of 2020 Seniors $110 $100 $100 $100 $410

Class of 2021 Juniors $100 $100 $100 $100 $400

Class of 2022 Sophomores $100 $100 $100 $300

Class of 2023 Freshmen $100 $100 $100 $300

$28.00 $7.00/year

Total Cost to Student $410 $400 $300 $300

In addition to ownership rights after four years of payment, students are provided with a comprehensive insurance program at no additional cost. Information regarding coverage is indicated on the attached Chromebook Rights and Responsibilities document. Balance in the self-insurance reserve is $106,556; of which approximately 60% is a result of the early Samsung devices when the district bought third party insurance coverage and, due to the high number and cost of claims, the insurance company paid the district to fix the devices in-house.

Class of 2023 Chromebook Purchase

Page 3

A cost of this program not reflected in the table above is the cost of the loaner and replacement pool. 100 devices are typically purchased each year to serve as a loaner and replacement pool. The total cost for FY 2019-20 is $27,200 which equates to $5.33/student per year. The Lenovo Chromebook product line has performed extremely well with regard to durability and functionality.

Re: GBS Yearbook JEA NSPA National Convention, Anaheim, CA

Date: March 8, 2019

Attached is a request from Brenda Field to take yearbook students to the spring National High School Journalism Convention from April 25-28, 2019 in Anaheim, California, sponsored by the Journalism Education Association (JEA) and the National Scholastic Press Association (NSPA). At this conference, the prestigious Pacemaker Award is conferred. The National Scholastic Press Association Pacemaker Award has existed since 1927, is independent of publishing companies, and is considered by many to be student journalism's highest honor. The GBS yearbook has been named as a finalist every year since 2002, and GBS won the Pacemaker Award for yearbooks from 2002, 2003, 2004, 2008, 2011, 2012, 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017.

We are proud that Glenbrook South is once again the only school nominated in Illinois. However, the main purpose of this trip is for students to attend conference learning sessions, workshops, onsite competitions, and journalistic career information sessions. This is a Student Trip covered under Board Policy 7230 (attached). This Trip is conducted by the district and partially funded by the district, and it requires approval from the principal, superintendent, and Board. I support this valuable experience.

Valuable experiences for Glenbrook students exist within and outside the boundaries of District #225. The Board also realizes that additional responsibilities arise whenever students are taken from the school premises. Staff, parents, and students should be aware of these responsibilities and the necessity for reasonable administrative procedures. The physical welfare of our students and staff must always be paramount in our considerations. It shall be the policy of this Board of Education to maintain insurance for the liability of the district, its board members, its employees, and authorized volunteers as a result of student injury, property loss and general liability coverage on student trips. It shall also be the Board's policy to encourage the maintenance of adequate personal automobile liability and medical insurance by our staff members. Section B B Definition of Student Trips A student trip shall be considered to be a school-sponsored activity away from the school premises usually falling within two major areas. 1.

a. A field trip implements and/or augments group classroom instruction.

Transportation for field trips is restricted by The School Code to Illinois or adjacent states.

b. An "extended classroom" allows individual students to pursue their studies in

various work-related, volunteer, or observation activities outside the classroom.

In these instances, travel may be by private automobile, if the driver is a Glenbrook staff member, parent, or student.

8. Students participating in student trips must travel to and from the trip=s destination in the

Re: GBS BPA National Leadership Conference to Anaheim, CA


Attached is the travel request for Rosie McManamon to take students to the Business

Professionals of America (BPA) National Leadership Conference. It will be held in Anaheim,

California from Wednesday, May 1 through Saturday, May 4, with students traveling

Tuesday evening, April 30 and returning Saturday evening, May 4. Fourteen GBS students

placed at the BPA state competition, which qualified them for this year’s national

competition.

This national travel follows the established guidelines, which include students being

responsible for 25% of their lodging and travel. This is a Student Trip covered under Board

Policy 7230, which is attached. The remaining costs of this trip will be covered by the GBS

budget.

I support this request and believe this type of experience will enhance the educational

experience of our BPA students.

To: Mike Riggle, John Finan, Mike Tarjan, and District 225 Board of Education

From: Michael Rast and Samantha Haugen

RE: DECA International Competition (ICDC), April 27-May 1, 2019

For the 13th consecutive year, we are pleased to announce that students from Glenbrook North DECA

have qualified for the International DECA Competition (ICDC). This year the competition is held in

Orlando, Florida. As the trip requires out-of-state, overnight travel, we are requesting approval to

send these 22 students and 3 chaperones to Orlando, Florida, Saturday, April 27 through Wednesday,

May 1. Enclosed you will find the required approval documents: Field Trip Request for Overnight

Trips, Student and Chaperone List, Cost Allocation Worksheet for Overnight Trips, and the ICDC

Itinerary with Flight and Hotel Information

This year, Glenbrook North DECA comprised of over 100 members. 22 students qualified for the

international competition (ICDC) as a result of local and state competitions. 92 GBN students

competed at the local competition in January. 40 were selected to compete at the state competition

March 7-March 9. Of the 40 students, 22 students qualified for ICDC.

DECA’s competitive events develop life skills and real-world business skills through projects,

simulations, and case studies. In these events, students role-play, learn to conduct market research,

devise promotion plans, create start-up businesses, participate in internet challenges and simulations,

and encounter realistic workplace challenges and scenarios. Through a healthy relationship with the

Northbrook Chamber of Commerce and Northbrook Rotary, students interact with local business

members at meetings to learn from and practice their skills throughout the year to ready them for the

competitions.

Thank you for your time and consideration of this valuable experience for GBN DECA students.

Michael Rast

To: Dr. Mike Riggle

Board of Education From: Dr. Kim Ptak Date: March 18, 2019 Re: Acceptance of Donation and Award of Bid for Glenbrook South Fieldhouse Curtains Recommendation It is recommended that the Board:

● Accept a monetary donation from the Glenbrook South Booster Club to fund the purchase of additional fieldhouse curtains;

● Award a bid to Larson Equipment & Furniture Co. in the amount of $85,750 for the purchase of fieldhouse curtains for use at Glenbrook South.

Background Glenbrook South’s fieldhouse is scheduled every block of the day for physical education classes and is utilized during the majority of evenings and weekends for athletic practices and contests. The fieldhouse currently has curtains that descend from the ceiling, creating three separate courts or teaching/coaching stations. The existing separation curtains were part of the original design and construction of the fieldhouse and were replaced through an approved building capital project in the summer of 2011. In an effort to maximize the use of this facility space, the school identified enhancements to the curtain configuration that will enable the running track to be utilized simultaneously with the three divided courts. The new configuration will be accomplished by adding eight fold up panel curtains that will fully enclose the interior court areas. Through the ongoing fundraising efforts, the Glenbrook South Booster Club has generously offered to fund the purchase of the new curtains. An architectural schematic of the curtain configuration is shown below. Bid Results Bids were sent to five vendors, two of which replied. Larson Equipment & Furniture Co. $85,750 Carroll Seating $89,350 Estimate $95,000

Before taking their respective seats on the board, each newly elected board member, and each re-elected board member shall sign a document prepared by the district, in the form presented below, and shall have it notarized under oath. This document shall be kept on file at the district office.

“I, (name of member), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully discharge the duties of the office of member of the Board of Education of Northfield Township High School District 225, in accordance with the Constitution of the United States, the Constitution of the State of Illinois, and the laws of the State of Illinois, to the best of my ability. I further swear (or affirm) that: I shall respect taxpayer interests by serving as a faithful protector of the school district’s assets; I shall encourage and respect the free expression of opinion by my fellow board members and others who seek a hearing before the board, while respecting the privacy of students and employees; I shall recognize that a board member has no legal authority as an individual and that decisions can be made only by a majority vote at a public board meeting; and, I shall abide by majority decisions of the board, while retaining the right to seek changes in such decisions through ethical and constructive channels.”

To begin the process of organizing the new school board, the Superintendent or designee shall serve as president pro tempore until the board elects a president. The president of the board, upon being elected shall immediately assume the duties of the chair to preside over the election of other officers.


Section D – New Member Orientation

The Board of Education shall be responsible for the proper orientation of newly elected Board members.

1. It shall be the responsibility of the Board president and the superintendent, to familiarize the newly elected Board members with their duties and responsibilities. Special emphasis shall be given to the legal and ethical responsibilities of members, the role of the Board as a policymaking body, and the chief functions of the superintendent and the superintendent's staff.

Section H - Compensation and Reimbursement of Board Members

The Board secretary, if not a Board member, shall receive compensation for the secretary's services as determined by the Board. The members of the Board shall be reimbursed for expenses incurred in performance of Board functions.

Section I - Board Committees
