In an effort to increase efficiency, using the projected student enrollment numbers, the district has been staffing at one over the class load limit. Mr. Hoover explained that this practice is being used for current staffing and as a preliminary process. This practice would allow the district to realign and add staff in the fall, should enrollment reach more than one over in a particular grade level or class. Mr. Gorman asked to inform the Board if this practice yields information regarding classes that may seem unpopular Mr. Hoover also stated there is not a surplus as employees have been used to fill positions throughout the district.

B. Superintendent 1. Summary of Current Events There was no Summary of Current Event. 2. Student Advisory Council Student Summit Report

The Student Advisory Council is comprised of 7th through 12th grade students who work with the superintendent and each year plan and execute a service learning project. Student Advisory Council Members Courtney Todd, Dan Cowan and Hansen Qiu from Mountain Ridge High School, along with Levi Hoover from Highland Lakes, and Marley Oakes from Desert Sky Middle presented information from this year’s service learning project focused on “Being Your Own Superhero.”

C. Fiscal Services 1. Student Enrollment Report Mr. Jim Migliorino, Associate Superintendent of Fiscal Services, reported that the Student

Enrollment Report dated April 25, 2013 was 33,979, a -1.8% change from last year. 2. District Financial Reports Mr. Migliorino reported on the Maintenance and Operations (M&O), Student Activity and

Auxiliary monthly reports for the month ended April, 2013. D. Human Resources

1. Board Review, Interaction, and Feedback on Campus Administrative Hiring Process Mr. Chuck Hoover, Associate Superintendent of Human Resources, gave a report on the process used when hiring Assistant Principals and Principals. Mr. Hoover asked for feedback from the Board regarding their interaction with candidates. The current process is that the applicants are screened, interviewed by a committee, and selected by committee and appropriate administration. An Executive Session is then called for the Board to review documentation and meet the candidate; this is done prior to the General Meeting where the action to approve the recommendation is voted on. The board would like to see the administration continue to screen, evaluate, and interview candidates. However, the Board’s preference is to see the recommended candidate’s resume with a summary sheet, in the Friday Update, preceding the meeting in which the recommendation is on the agenda for Action. After approval of the candidate, the introduction would take place at the following Board Meeting. Dr. Veitenheimer explained that a process of meeting the candidate during one meeting, then waiting until the next meeting for approval puts the district at a disadvantage, due to the fact that candidates are often being considered for positions with other districts. If DVUSD wants the best, we need to act as quickly and efficiently as possible so that we don’t lose candidates to other districts. Ms. Agosta stated that the process of hiring is left up to the person with the authority to do so, the Superintendent. The committee’s charge is to bring a recommendation to the Superintendent, who is then responsible for following up on all the issues and making the final recommendation to the Board. To have a process removing the personnel person and Superintendent from the hiring process doesn’t make sense and hiring personnel is not the place of the Board. She does appreciate having the appropriate information the Friday prior to a Board Meeting, at the minimum. Our process needs to be efficient for good times and slow times.


Mr. Gorman would like to see the candidates in a preview, Friday Update, having the approval and then meeting the approved candidate at a following meeting. Mr. Gregoire shared his concerns that in the past, committees or panels have brought a recommendation to the administration and that candidate has not made it through as the recommendation from the Superintendent. He feels a committee report, presented by someone other than administration, should be included in the recommendation, along with the administrative summary and resume for the board to review. He does not agree with the process Mr. Gorman mentioned and feels that the Board should have more information and talk more in depth about each candidate. Mr. Bayer has concerns regarding how issues have been handled in the past and asked for assurance that the process is better in the future. Mr. Gorman called a point of order to get back on topic. Dr. Veitenheimer stated that the administration will update the process and get the documented process back to the Board.

Ms. Agosta seconded the motion. Mr. Gregoire was not aware of changes and asked why the changes were made. Mr. Gorman stated the changes give more flexibility for reductions. Mr. Gorman stated these changes were talked about during previous meetings. Mr. Gregoire feels there should be trigger language included in the budget options and would like to wait until the legislature releases their budget options. Mr. Gorman stated the list can change and that the district can provide trigger language if state funding is made available above the cuts that are made.

He feels that the location of this campus might be better utilized as other alternatives and asked that the district look further into other options. He would like the board to wait on the vote, as he feels that there is time to look at the overall master plan to review options for all 9 under-enrolled schools.

Mr. Edmund asked committee members to come forward for comments. Public Day School committee members Debi Switalski, Barbara Charon and Myong Covert spoke about the committee’s charge and the thoughtfulness and hard work of each of the members, the daunting task that each member had and also thanked Mr. Edmund for his diligence in leading the committee.
