FIRST READING/REVIEW DATE: FEBRUARY 10, 2014
BOARD POLICY FOR REVIEW
RELEVANT DATA: From time to time, changes in laws or operating practice require changes or additions to board policies. In addition, the district subscribes to a policy review service with Oregon School Boards Association and receives samples that are used to craft policy for Springfield Public Schools. Two current policies and three administrative rules (ARs) need to be rewritten to meet legal standards. Ordinarily, ARs do not require board approval. These three ARs and part of special education assurances and therefore must be adopted by the board. Brian Megert and Devon Ashbridge available for questions. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Board of Directors review the following board policies as a first reading:
• BFD Board Policy Implementation • IGBAJ Special Education – Freed Appropriate Public Education
(FAPE)
• IGBAG-AR Special Education – Procedural Safeguards • IGBAB/JO-AR Education Records/Records of Students with Disabilities
Management • JO/IGBAB-AR Education Records/Records of Students with Disabilities
Management SUBMITTED BY: Devon Ashbridge Communications Specialist
Board Policy Implementation - BFD 1-1
Code: BFD Adopted: Board Policy Implementation Effective Date of Policies All new or amended policies will become effective on the day after adoption by the Board, unless a specific date is included in the motion for adoption. Policy Implementation The superintendent and administrative staff will implement Board policies. The superintendent may formulate administrative regulations and procedures to assist policy implementation. It will be the Board’s duty to evaluate the effectiveness of the policy and the effectiveness of the administration’s implementation of the policy. Policy Dissemination The written policies that govern the district will be maintained in a policy manual to be updated by district staff as new policies are developed or existing policies are revised or repealed. Each Board member will be provided with a current policy manual. Each school shall provide at least one copy of the make available for inspection to the public and district employees, copies of the Board’s policy manual in the school’s library and one copy in the business office. Each employee will be specifically notified of the existence and availability of and personnel policies. The Board’s policy manual will be considered a public record and will be open for inspection at the district office during regular working hours. The superintendent will provide channels for disseminating appropriate policies to the community. END OF POLICY Legal Reference(s): ORS 192.410(4) ORS 332.107

Special Education - Free Appropriate Public Education (FAPE) - IGBAJ 1-2
Code: IGBAJ Adopted: Special Education - Free Appropriate Public Education (FAPE) 1. The district admits all resident school age children with disabilities and makes special education and
related services available at no cost to those:
a. Who have reached five years of age but have not yet reached 21 years of age on or before September 1 of the current school year, even if they have not failed or have not been retained in a course or grade or are advancing from grade to grade;
b. Who have not graduated with a regular diploma; c. Who have been suspended or expelled in accordance with special education discipline
provisions; or d. Who reach age 21 before the end of the school year. These students remain eligible until the
end of the school year in which they reach 21. 2. The district determines residency in accordance with Oregon law. 3. The district takes steps to ensure that its children with disabilities have available to them the variety
of educational programs and services available to nondisabled children in the area served by the district and provides a continuum of services to meet the individual special education needs of all resident children with disabilities, including resident and children with disabilities who are enrolled in district public charter schools located in the district.
4. The district may, but is not required to, provide special education and related services to a student
who has graduated with a regular diploma. 5. State law prohibits the district from recommending to parents, or requiring a child to obtain, a
prescription for medication to affect or alter thought processes, mood or behavior as a condition of attending school, receiving an evaluation to determine eligibility for early childhood special education or special education, or receiving special education services.
6. If the individualized education program (IEP) team determines that placement in a public or private
residential program is necessary to provide FAPE, the program, including nonmedical care and room and board, must be at no cost to the parents of the child.
7. If a parent revokes consent for a student receiving special education and related services, the district
will not be considered to be in violation of the requirement to make FAPE available to the student because of the failure to provide the student with further special education and related services.

e. Obtain a copy of the district policy with regard to student education records.
The notification shall also inform parents or eligible students that the district forwards education records requested under OAR 581-021-0255. The notification shall also indicate where copies of the district policy are located and how copies may be obtained.
If the eligible student or the student’s parent(s) has a primary or home language other than English, or has a disability, the district shall provide effective notice.
These rights shall be given to either parent unless the district has been provided with specific written evidence that there is a court order, state statute or legally binding document relating to such matters as divorce, separation or custody that specifically revokes these rights.
When a student becomes an eligible student, which is defined as a student who has reached 18 years of age or is attending only an institution of postsecondary education and is not enrolled in a secondary school, the rights accorded to, and the consent required of, the parents transfer from the parents to the student. Nothing prevents the district from giving students rights in addition to those given to parents.

The district shall permit an eligible student or student’s parent(s) or a representative of a parent or eligible student, if authorized in writing by the eligible student or student’s parent(s), to inspect and review the education records of the student, unless the education records of a student contain information on more than one student. In that case the eligible student or student’s parent(s) may inspect, review or be informed of only the specific information about the student.
The district shall comply with a request for access to records:
a. Within a reasonable period of time and without unnecessary delay; b. For children with disabilities before any meeting regarding an individualized education
program (IEP), or any due process hearing, or any resolution session related to a due process hearing;
c. In no case more than 45 days after it has received the request.

The parent(s) or eligible student shall comply with the following procedure to inspect and review a student’s education record:
a. Provide a written, dated request to inspect a student’s education record; and b. State the specific reason for requesting the inspection.
The written request will be permanently added to the student’s education record.
The district shall not destroy any education record if there is an outstanding request to inspect and review the education record.

If an eligible student or student’s parent(s) so requests, the district shall give the eligible student or student’s parent(s) a copy of the student’s education record. The district may recover a fee for providing a copy of the record, but only for the actual costs of reproducing the record unless the imposition of a fee effectively prevents a parent or eligible student from exercising the right to inspect and review the student’s educational records. The district may not charge a fee to search for or to retrieve the education records of a student.
The district shall not provide the eligible student or student’s parent(s) with a copy of test protocols, test questions and answers and other documents described in Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS) 192.501(4) unless authorized by federal law.

8. Hearing Rights of Parents or Eligible Students
If the building level principal decides not to amend the education record of a student as requested by the eligible student or the student’s parent(s), the eligible student or student’s parent(s) may request a formal hearing for the purpose of challenging information in the education record as inaccurate, misleading or in violation of the privacy or other rights of the student. The district shall appoint a hearings officer to conduct the formal hearing requested by the eligible student or student’s parent. The hearing may be conducted by any individual, including an official of the district, who does not have a direct interest in the outcome of the hearing. The hearings officer will establish a date, time and location for the hearing, and give the student’s parent or eligible student notice of date, time and location reasonably in advance of the hearing.

Persons other than the student, parent, witnesses and counsel shall not be admitted. The hearings officer shall preside over the panel. The panel will hear evidence from the school staff and the eligible student or student’s parent(s) to determine the point(s) of disagreement concerning the records. Confidential conversations between a licensed employee or district counselor and a student shall not be part of the records hearing procedure. The eligible student or student’s parent(s) has the right to insert written comments or explanations into the record regarding the disputed material. Such inserts shall remain in the education record as long as the education record or contested portion is maintained and exists. The panel shall make a determination after hearing the evidence and make its recommendation in writing within 10 working days following the close of the hearing. The panel will make a determination based solely on the evidence presented at the hearing and will include a summary of the evidence and the reason for the decision.

Bold = Additions / Strike Through = Deletions
Education Records/Records of Students with Disabilities Management - JO/IGBAB-AR 9-10
commenting on the contested information in the record or stating why he/she disagrees with the decision of the panel.

RESOLUTION: #13-14.024 DATE: FEBRUARY 10, 2014
BOARD POLICIES FOR APPROVAL
RELEVANT DATA: From time to time, changes in laws or operating practice require changes or additions to board policies. In addition, the district subscribes to a policy review service with Oregon School Boards Association and receives samples that are used to craft policy for Springfield Public Schools. Three current policies needed to be rewritten to meet legal standards. These policies were presented for first reading at the last board meeting. Dawn Strong is available for questions. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Board of Directors approve the following board policies:
• GBC Staff Ethics • GBEDA Drug and Alcohol Testing – Transportation Employees • GCL-GDL Staff Development
SUBMITTED BY RECOMMENDED BY: Devon Ashbridge Hertica Y. Martin, Ed.D Communications Specialist Superintendent
Staff Ethics – GBC 1-6
Code: GBC Adopted: Staff Ethics I. Conflict of Interest No district employee will use his/her district position to obtain personal financial benefit or avoidance of financial detriment or financial gain or avoidance of financial detriment for relatives or for any business with which the employee or relative is associated. This prohibition does not apply to any part of an official compensation package, honorarium allowed by ORS 244.042, reimbursement of expenses, or unsolicited awards of professional achievement. Further, this prohibition does not apply to gifts from one without a legislative or administrative interest. Nor does it apply if the gift is under the $50 gift limit for one who has a legislative or administrative interest in any matter subject to the decision or vote of the district employee. District employees will not engage in, or have a financial interest in, any activity that raises a reasonable question of conflict of interest with their duties and responsibilities as staff members. This means that: 1. Employees will not use their position to obtain financial gain or avoidance of financial detriment
from students, parents or staff; 2. Any device, publication or any other item developed during the employee’s paid time shall be
district property; 3. Employees will not further personal gain through the use of confidential information gained in the
course of or by reason of position or activities in any way; 4. No district employee may serve as a Board or budget committee member in the district.
5. An employee will not perform any duties related to an outside job during his/her regular working
hours or during the additional time that he/she needs to fulfill the position’s responsibilities; nor will an employee use any district facilities, equipment or materials in performing outside work;
6. If an employee authorizes a public contract, the employee may not have a direct beneficial financial
interest in that public contract for two years after the date the contract was authorized. If an employee has a potential or actual conflict of interest, the employee must notify his/her supervisor in writing of the nature of the conflict and request that the supervisor dispose of the matter giving rise to the conflict. In order to avoid both potential and actual conflicts of interests, district employees must abide by the following rules when an employee’s relative is seeking and/or holds a position with the district:
Staff Ethics – GBC 2-6
1. A district employee may not appoint, employ, promote, discharge, fire, or demote or advocate for
such an employment decision for a relative, unless he/she complies with the conflict of interest requirements of ORS Chapter 244. This rule does not apply to employment decisions regarding unpaid volunteer position, unless it is a Board-related position;
2. A district employee may not participate as a public official in any interview, discussion, or debate
regarding the appointment, employment, promotion, discharge, firing, or demotion of a relative. An employee may still serve as a reference, provide a recommendation, or perform other acts that are part of the normal job functions of the employee;
3. More than one member of an employee’s family may be hired as a regular district employee. In
accordance with Oregon law, however, the district may refuse to hire individuals, or may transfer current employees, in situations where an appointment would place one family member in a position of exercising supervisory, appointment or grievance adjustment authority over another member of the same family. Employees who are members of the same family may not be assigned to work in the same building except by the superintendent’s approval.
Relative” means: 1. The employee’s spouse;1, parent, step-parent, child, sibling, step-sibling, son-in-law or daughter-in-
law; 2. The spouse of the employee’s parent, step-parent, child, sibling, step-sibling, son-in-law or daughter-
in-law. II. Gifts District employees must comply with the following rules involving gifts: Employees are public officials and therefore will not solicit or accept a gift or gifts with an aggregate value in excess of $50 from any single source in a calendar year that has a legislative or administrative interest in any matter subject to the decision or vote of the district employee. All gift-related provisions apply to the employee and their relatives. The $50 gift limit applies separately to the employee, and to the employee’s relatives, meaning that the employee and relative can accept up to $50 each from the same source/gift giver. 1. “Gift” means something of economic value given to an employee without valuable consideration of
equivalent value, which is not extended to others who are not public officials on the same terms and conditions.
2. “Relative” means:
a. The employee’s spouse1, parent, step-parent, child, sibling, step-sibling, son-in-law or daughter-in-law;
b. The spouse of the employee’s parent, step-parent, child, sibling, step-sibling, son-in-law or daughter-in-law.
1The term spouse includes domestic partner.
Staff Ethics - GBC 3-6
Determining the Source of Gifts Employees should not accept gifts in any amount without obtaining information from the gift giver as to who is the source of the gift. It is the employee’s personal responsibility to ensure that no single source provides gifts exceeding an aggregate value of $50 in a calendar year, if the source has a legislative or administrative interest in any matter subject to the decision or vote of the district employee. If the giver does not have a legislative/administrative interest, the ethics rules on gifts do not apply and the employee need not keep track of it, although they are advised to do so anyway in case of a later dispute. Determining Legislative and Administrative Interest A “legislative or administrative interest” means an economic interest, distinct from that of the general public, in any action subject to the official decision of an employee. A decision means an act that commits the district to a particular course of action within the employee’s scope of authority and that is connected to the source of the gift’s economic interest. A decision is not a recommendation or work performed in an advisory capacity. If a supervisor delegates the decision to a subordinate but retains responsibility as the final decision maker, both the subordinate and supervisor’s actions would be considered a “decision.” Determining the Value of Gifts The fair market value of the merchandise, goods, or services received will be used to determine benefit or value. “Fair market value” is the dollar amount goods or services would bring if offered for sale by a person who desired, but was not obligated, to sell and purchased by one who is willing, but not obligated, to buy. Any portion of the price that was donated to charity, however, does not count toward the fair market value of the gift if the employee does not claim the charitable contribution on personal tax returns. Below are acceptable ways to calculate the fair market value of a gift: 1. In calculating the per person cost at receptions or meals the payor of the employee’s admission or
meal will include all costs other than any amount donated to a charity.
For example, a person with a legislative or administrative interest buys a table for a charitable dinner at $100 per person. If the cost of the meal was $25 and the amount donated to charity was $75, the benefit conferred on the employee is $25. This example requires that the employee does not claim the charitable contribution on personal tax returns.
2. For receptions and meals with multiple attendees, but with no price established to attend, the source of the employee’s meal or reception will use reasonable methods to determine the per person value or benefit conferred. The following examples are deemed reasonable methods of calculating value or benefit conferred:
a. The source divides the amount spent on food, beverage and other costs (other than charitable
contributions) by the number of persons whom the payor reasonably expects to attend the reception or dinner;
b. The source divides the amount spent on food, beverage and other costs (other than charitable contributions) by the number of persons who actually attend the reception or dinner; or
c. The source calculates the actual amount spent on the employee.
Staff Ethics - GBC 4-6
3. Upon request by the employee, the source will give notice of the value of the merchandise, goods, or services received.
4. Attendance at receptions where the food or beverage is provided as an incidental part of the
reception is permitted without regard to the fair market value of the food and beverage provided. Value of Unsolicited Tokens or Awards: Resale value Employees may accept unsolicited tokens or awards that are engraved or are otherwise personalized items. Such items are deemed to have a resale value under $25 (even if the personalized item cost the source more than $50), unless the personalized item is made from gold or some other valuable material that would have value over $25 as a raw material. Entertainment Employees may not solicit or accept any gifts of entertainment over $50 in value from any single source in a calendar year that has a legislative or administrative interest in any matter subject to the decision of the employee unless: 1. The entertainment is incidental to the main purpose of another event (i.e., a band playing at a
reception). Entertainment that involves personal participation is not incidental to another event (such as a golf tournament at a conference); or
2. The employee is acting in their official capacity for a ceremonial purpose.
Entertainment is ceremonial when an employee appears at an entertainment event for a “ceremonial purpose” at the invitation of the source of the entertainment who requests the presence of the employee at a special occasion associated with the entertainment. Examples of an appearance by an employee at an entertainment event for a ceremonial purpose include: throwing the first pitch at a baseball game, appearing in a parade and ribbon cutting for an opening ceremony.
Exceptions The following are exceptions to the ethics rules on gifts that apply to employees: 1. Gifts from “relatives” are permitted in an unlimited amount; they are not considered gifts under the
ethics rules; 2. Informational or program material, publications, or subscriptions related to the recipient’s
performance of official duties; 3. Food, lodging, and travel generally count toward the $50 aggregate amount per year from a single
source with a legislative/administrative interest, with the following exceptions:
a. Organized Planned Events. Employees are permitted to accept payment for travel conducted in the employee’s official capacity, for certain limited purposes:
(1) Reasonable expenses (i.e., food, lodging, travel, fees) for attendance at a convention,
fact-finding mission or trip, or other meeting do not count toward the $50 aggregate amount IF:
Staff Ethics - GBC 5-6
(a) The employee is scheduled to deliver a speech, make a presentation, participate on a panel, or represent the district; AND
i) The giver is a unit of a:
a) Federal, state, or local government; b) An Oregon or federally recognized Native American Tribe; OR c) Nonprofit corporation.
(b) The employee is representing the district:
i) On an officially sanctioned trade-promotion or fact-finding mission; OR ii) Officially designated negotiations or economic development activities where
receipt of the expenses is approved in advance by the superintendent.
(2) The purpose of this exception is to allow employees to attend organized, planned events and engage with the members of organizations by speaking or answering questions, participating in panel discussions or otherwise formally discussing matters in their official capacity. This exception to the gift definition does not authorize private meals where the participants engage in discussion.
4. Food or beverage, consumed at a reception, meal, or meeting IF held by an organization and IF the
employee is representing the district.
“Reception” means a social gathering. Receptions are often held for the purpose of extending a ceremonial or formal welcome and may include private or public meetings during which guests are honored or welcomed. Food and beverages are often provided, but not as a plated, sit-down meal;
5. Food or beverage consumed by employee acting in an official capacity in the course of financial
transactions between the public body and another entity described in ORS 244.020(6)(b)(I)(i); 6. Waiver or discount of registration expenses or materials provided to employee at a continuing
education event that the employee may attend to satisfy a professional licensing requirement; 7. A gift received by the employee as part of the usual or customary practice of the employee’s private
business, employment or position as a volunteer that bears no relationship to the employee’s district employment;
8. Reasonable expenses paid to employee for accompanying students on an educational trip. Honoraria An employee may not solicit or receive, whether directly or indirectly, honoraria for the employee or relative of the employee if the honoraria are solicited or received in connection with the official duties of the employee. The honoraria rules do not prohibit the solicitation or receipt of an honorarium or a certificate, plaque, commemorative token, or other item with a value of $50 or less; or the solicitation or receipt of an honorarium for services performed in relation to the private profession, occupation, avocation, or expertise of the employee.

Code: GBEDA Adopted: Drug and Alcohol Testing - Transportation Personnel * (Version 1) The district is committed to the establishment of a drug use and alcohol misuse prevention program that meets all applicable requirements of the Omnibus Transportation Employee Testing Act of 1991 (OTETA). The district or its transportation provider shall have an in-house drug and alcohol testing program or be a member of a consortium that provides testing that meets the federal regulations, and shall annually certify this information to the Oregon Department of Education. Accordingly, all employees subject to commercial driver license (CDL) requirements shall be prohibited from: 1. The use of drugs, unless a written prescription from a licensed doctor or osteopath is provided,
including a statement advising that the substance does not adversely affect the driver’s ability to safely operate a commercial motor vehicle;
2. The use of alcohol including:
a. While on duty; b. Eight hours before driving, in accordance with Oregon Administrative Rules; c. Eight hours following an accident; d. Consumption resulting in prohibited levels of alcohol in the system.
“Drugs” as used in this policy refer to controlled substances covered by OTETA, including marijuana, cocaine, opiates, amphetamines and phencyclidine (PCP). All covered individuals offered employment with the district and district employees transferring to positions subject to OTETA shall be required to submit to pre-employment drug testing. Additionally, covered employees will be subject to reasonable suspicion, random and post-accident alcohol and drug testing. Return-to-duty and follow-up testing may also be required. Pre-employment drug testing costs will be paid for by the district. All drug and alcohol testing of district employees, including reasonable suspicion, random, post-accident, return-to-duty and follow-up testing costs, as applicable, will be paid for by the district. The district will comply with collective bargaining agreement provisions.
Drug and Alcohol Testing - Transportation Personnel * - GBEDA 2-2
All offers of employment or transfer to covered positions with the district will be made contingent upon testing results. An individual who tests positive for drugs may not be hired or transferred1. The offer of employment or transfer will be immediately withdrawn. An offer of employment or transfer will also be immediately withdrawn from any individual who refuses drug testing. Covered employees who, under the district’s reasonable suspicion, random, post-accident, return-to-duty or follow-up testing program, test positive for drugs or test with a breath alcohol content level of 0.02 or higher, will be subject to immediate disciplinary action up to and including dismissal in accordance with Board policy. Employees who refuse to comply with testing requirements will also be regarded as testing positive for drugs or testing with a breath alcohol content level of 0.02 or higher. Notification of available resources for evaluation and treatment will be made as required by law. Additionally, employees may be subject to CDL prohibitions and penalties under the OTETA and applicable Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) regulations. END OF POLICY Legal Reference(s):
1The district may elect to allow an individual who tests positive for drugs to reapply for district employment or transfer to a covered position at a later date. At that time, the individual will again be tested for the presence of drugs. A district employee considered for transfer to an OTETA-covered position who tests positive for drugs will be subject to all district policies and regulations including the district’s Drug-Free Workplace policy.

CONSENT AGENDA February 10, 2014
SPRINGFIELD PUBLIC SCHOOLS 2013-2014 Revenue/Expenditure Forecast
As of January 31, 2013 **Please see attached report**
REVENUES:
• A majority of our (current year) property taxes were be received during the month of November, with minor collections remaining throughout the remainder of the year. Current year property taxes are projected to be slightly less than originally budgeted ($240,000 @ 95% collection rate). The main reason for this estimated reduction is due to an error made in the assessed value of International Paper (IP). IP is the largest taxpayer within the School District’s boundaries and paid approximately $1.3 million less than they should. Due to state law the correction must be made in the next fiscal year. This reduction has been reported to Oregon Department of Education and considered in the State School Fund. Additionally, it is estimated that approximately $400,000 of prior year property taxes are to be received on behalf of the District, of which the District has received a little more than $73,000. This report is based on the information received through the Lane County Tax and Assessment office.
• The District’s most significant portion of revenue is the District’s scheduled Basic School Support payments. According to Oregon Department of Education’s estimate (11/7/2013), the District is scheduled to receive approximately $750,000 less than the adopted budget. This is due to an adjustment by the State on the number of students above the 11% IEP cap being funded. On the other hand, the District anticipates receiving approximately $500,000 from the prior year reconciliation and an additional $500,000 from the High Cost Disability reimbursement. This estimate includes the additional students enrolled in the SPS Online program, as well as Charter School enrollment at both A3 and Willamette Leadership Academy.
• The District is anticipating receiving approximately $150,000 in County School Funds. To date the District has not received anticipated funds.
• The District has received approximately 50% of the adopted budget in Common School Funds. Oregon Department of Education notified us early in November that the allocated has increased by approximately $215,000, which is considered in the updated State School Fund formula revenue. Remaining funds are anticipated to be received in January 2014.
• In October 2013 the District learned that Federal Forest Fees would be allocated in the 2013-14 fiscal year, which was not anticipated when the budget was adopted. These resources are anticipated to be approximately $536,175.
EXPENDITURES:
• Salary amounts are based upon staff allocations adopted during the budgeting process. This is estimated using actual data (per year-end estimates). These projections reflect anticipated and realized retirements.
• Benefit amounts are based upon staff allocations revised during the budgeting process, along with budgeted salaries.
• The purchased services, supplies and capital outlay expenditure projections are based upon budgeted expenditures and anticipated to be expended similar to past trends. While historically the District has under spent these budget areas, reductions in discretionary budget no longer afford for significant under-expending.
• Other objects include the cost for property and liability insurance and is based upon premiums negotiated after the 2013-2014 adopted budget.
Additional Notes: For the 2013-2014 budget year the current estimate of ending fund balance is $1,148,514. Included in this number is the audited ending fund balance from the 2012-13 fiscal year ($461,796). At the end of the 2012-13 fiscal year it was estimated that the ending fund balance would be approximately $941,000, however there were additional, unanticipated reductions that occurred throughout the year, as well as increases that drew down reserves. Most notably there were the following:
1) Decision to staff more than was allocated in 2012-13. (Decision by Leadership to support from reserves).
2) Reduction in revenue associated with High Cost Disability student reimbursement.
3) Unanticipated reduction in State School Funds from a reduction in Special Education per student cap funding.
4) Increased revenue flow through and costs associated with Charter School student enrollment.
5) An assumption that online student participation would be greater than realized.
6) Unanticipated expenses related to special education costs. During the week of September 30, 2013 the Oregon Legislature and Governor Kitzhaber completed the “Special Session” for 2013. This session is estimated to provide an additional $100 million for k-12 education (estimated to be $1.7 - $1.8 million for SPS, however it has been announced that this revenue will not be available until the 2014-15 fiscal year. More information will be provided once it becomes available. Submitted by: Reviewed by: Brett M. Yancey Dr. Hertica Martin, Ed. D. Director of Business Operations Superintendent

SPRINGFIELD PUBLIC SCHOOLS Integrated Pest Management (IPM) Report
Integrated Pest Management, also known as IPM, is a process for achieving long-term, environmentally sound pest suppression through a wide variety of tactics. Control strategies in an IPM program include structural and procedural improvements to reduce the food, water, shelter and access used by pests. Since IPM focuses on remediation of the fundamental reasons why pests are here, pesticides should rarely be used and only when necessary. Oregon Revised Statutes, Chapter 634 requires the IPM Plan Coordinator each January to provide the Springfield School District Board of Directors an annual report of all pesticide applications made the previous year. This year the few sightings of mice were controlled by trapping, sanitation and exclusion. Additionally, fourteen sites reported problems with ants. While sanitation and exclusion was often successful in controlling them there were six occasions where populations were so great and exclusion opportunities not evident that pesticides had to be used. The sites were Maple, Page, Riverbend, and Briggs Middle School. Ten sites reported problems with wasps. Paper wasps were dealt with by destroying the nests. On two occasions yellow jackets were able to be sealed in their nests. Because of their aggressiveness and location seven areas were treated with pesticides to control yellow jackets. The areas were at Brattain Early Learning Center, Mt Vernon, Ridgeview, Thurston Elementary School and Agnes Stewart Middle School. Brett Yancey will be available for any questions.

PURPOSE OF THE TRIP • What are the objectives of the trip and how are the experiences provided related to class or school program? The objective of the trip is to provide a quality performance opportunity at one of the most prestigious Jazz Festivals in the United States. Because the Jazz Ensemble is a performance-oriented class, the trip will offer them the best opportunity to perform for the largest audience and some of the most qualified judges in the Jazz Music. • How will the activities on the trip provide opportunities for students to obtain new skills, insights, knowledge, or appreciation? How will the trip provide opportunities for students to use those skills they have already acquired? Because the judges, clinicians and guest artists for the festival are of the highest caliber, the clinics and comments will give students insights from professionals who at one time started in High School music groups. • How will the experience motivate students for further learning? By hearing some of the best clinicians and musicians in the world, they should come away with a better appreciation of Jazz and what it will take to perform at a higher skill level. • Does the trip make best use of available time and money? Because Reno is only a days bus ride away, the cost is very reasonable, as well as food and hotel costs being inexpensive. • What effect does the trip have on other classes or programs? Students will miss two class days, but will be encouraged to take homework with them to do on the bus ride. • What arrangements for transportation and other factors pertaining to supervision of students have been considered to ensure maximum safety? We will be using a well-known charter bus company with an experienced driver. Chaperones will be in charge of keeping tabs on student conduct and behavior, as well as making sure they are where they are suppose to be when they are suppose to be there. Students are never allowed to be alone and must be in groups of at least three. Curfews, normal trip rules and etiquette are strictly enforced.
