I would be reopened in regard where we are and why we're where we are Xterra and what I plan to be recommended tonight for our board's approval moving forward I want the focus for tonight today to review our plan of action talk about the wheatlands elementary secondary schedules technology distribution ZTE update student services and wanted to share with you a few important updates in back to school again as we move into this presentation we talked about our data reviewed it is important for you to understand and the recent disease activity by County for the South Carolina DHEC Department and the interesting matter here is that when we brought our initial plan and I said to the public at time that our plan was tentative and it was very fluid and it was such a change I'm weaker by and conducted a survey of our stakeholders our parents are teachers included survey and the response of that survey was that one choice we wanted choice where we can have some type of in person as well as a virtual option he provided a plan that featured those two options and that time that's around 62016 21 hour rate of incidence with medium that's where we were and I indicated at that time that if there was some type of change that we can back and we would have the same conversation and share with you as a board at a public where we starting our he will look at the data you will know that 7:25 excuse me are incidence rate with find a train incident high and our percent positive is high at 22.1% as a 712 are incident rated high are trending right is fine and I represent positive hi and it has increased to 23 and 2% with that information they are some other related data that I believe is of importance July 11th South Carolina DHEC Department announced first death of a child under the age of five from the Midlands region area that was Associated covid-19 July swell from the state's First cases of the Multiverse Tourette's syndrome in children what they're calling am I is C some children one in the Midlands and one in the Pee Dee region both under 10 years and made this is really caused us to redo our planet because for me is one child too many that we lost but also for me it is important that we understand that this matter that we're dealing with has no respect of person you don't have to sit here and I thought about the things that we teach our children we bring them into the school and safety is the first thing that we talked about daily consist of how to get to the building for a fire drill we teach them how to protect themselves on a tornado drill which have taught them now how to react if we had an active shooter drill and I'm not so sure how we can change from a predator that we can't see and that we can't control and so the safety for Jasper County has not changed it is still the same but AC and Jasper is Terre mine and we will always come first each of you and I want to say to our teachers you are students or staff and to our ministry leaders you matter to us and we will not compromise your life the life of your loved one or the life of any other human being is District I have a greater responsibility to make sure that safety of all is at the Forefront and I certainly will not compromise that accept the accountability and I also accept the response what's he making a decision that start with Benefits all involved I realize that we will be scrutinized I will be scrutinized by any decision that is made if it's other than what other individuals may design that's the nature of what we're dealing with that this time but in the mindset of Jasper and this time we will not compromise safety as a result I will be making a recommendation on this evening that we begin our we're virtually and that we Fade Into the hybrid model or any parent who desires to take advantage of that option considering the data that was previously shared it is important that we operate safe and that we move forward accordingly moving forward we will continue with the virtual school option even when it stays to come back into our schools and we can offer the hybrid model we will steal offered virtual model as an option to our parents are Virtual School administrator is mr. Seneca Maine and I want to make it very clear that I've listened to concerns around whether or not Virtual School for my child whether or not my child will be successful virtually whether or not we can get this done differently then it happened in the past I want to make it very clear abruptly are due to the pandemic Nation it was not playing at all it was not enough time to plan so we reacted in the best interest in his safety and is quickly and efficiently as we could we now have prepared ourselves what we're dealing with currently sold a virtual with the what you dealt with during the shutdown by the governor if not the same virtual experience that you will experience moving. model that we use regular will be present in everything that we do and Grady will be Paramount and we will certainly continue the accountability and the high level of excellent that we expect in all of our class instruction delivery. All of our teacher but we also expect the same for my students and their hard work and dedication to being the Learners and the Star Wars that we know that they are you can move to the next line as of July 11th and I do want to commend the parents who's already taken the time to complete the survey the transportation survey well as the online registration as of July 11th but again we have to see the pi craft their 1089 registration completed change this week is very critical that we continue with the registration but as of again July 11th we had 1008 1089 registration completed as you can see the the face-to-face model of those that were conceded July 11th 592 desire dihybrid approach virtually there was 497 and some of that info Haitian definitely again is really conducive and it support the same survey that was conducted that there are individuals who designed the hybrid approach and I do want to say to her hybrid approach we understand the need we know that our students being in school face-to-face instruction there there is nothing that beats that there is nothing that super seat that we want our kids school that we want our kids in school safely and we want to make sure that we can provide that not only to student but also to our teachers we looked at our plan we cannot be want to go ahead mr. Smith Shelton we looked at our plan we indicated and we thought about what would be best and we consider it again ensuring I don't know but I can move the screen we considered ensuring that we consider making sure that the basic needs for our staff as well as our students were met we look at me Rocky of knees in the CDC guidelines are you must meet the basic needs and here for us the basic needs include security and safety and some dirty and safety we want to make sure that the decision that we made we so they're comfortable and I'm right that we begin to ensure that we can provide security and we can provide that is needed and that we do meet those basic needs in order to continue to provide other parts that we need you to build and grow our children and in what we're doing in all that we do you will continue on you can continue we looked at the CDC guiding principles is there a clear and in order for us to operate at a low red the CDC has said that students and teachers engage in Virtual only classes and activities and events indicated the lowest risk medium rest was indeed where we were in line initially when we posed hybrid model and that was the small in person classes so we're no longer in the medium rest highest rest you'll see there was full size in-person classes and at this point because of our outside community before as what's happening in our community we are high-risk so we want to operate at the lowest risk at this time and the lowest risk for rust base on the CDC guideline is virtual also based on when our safety department support as well you may continue our action plan for Jasper County School District I want to take a moment to talk about what you see on your screen at this time and then and I don't want to get lost in this but I think it's care much for everyone to understand that when you see the word meat if you have not been following legislation the South Carolina General Assembly authorized the State Department of Education to reimburse public schools from the coronavirus released fun and you could provide some unbudgeted instructional support beyond the number of that were in hours at work required by state law in regards to that what we are doing and what the law has indicated in what this week plan requires is that you bring our kids and face-to-face and we have an option week stands for learn evaluate analyze and prepare our plan is going to do all of those things we're going how to evaluate our student we're going to analyze the data and we're going to prepare them to learn it is important that we assess our students to gauge where they are so that we can meet them where they are and so the plans for leap day that the state department will support it does require students in pre-kindergarten through eighth grade 5 additional instructional at the start of the school year high school year in Michigan is supposed to start August 17th then the week prior to be 5 days prior to the start of the school year for us that would be the week of August 4th that would be the time in issue that teachers would report regardless because they were originally report back on August 10th for all of our staff members who teach in Praise CD pre-kindergarten in order to be compensated for the additional five days staff members must come back a week early and they cannot be coming back the week early when the time of your being, so when you see there you will see the week of August 10th to the 14th that's when we need our students to come in for Diagnostic the week of August 3rd through the 7th that is when I need to get prepared and that is how they will be company based on again this piece from the general assembly the individuals in it and I need parents to understand I know I just said to you I will need our kids to operate safely virtually and is only can see sent well here were talking about days and not a better chair mr. Malik we can hear you you said that the teachers were coming back from on the did the 10th to the 17th or what was happening with the 10th to the 17th would be the sea reporting the five additional day right and so you said they going to be doing what testing they will be so this planned the CD through eighth-grade diagnostic J's this plainly the word leave stands for learn you can provide learning during that time value 8 you can analyze data during or you can prepare students for the start of the school year saying that we are going to propose with you see in front of you for the week of August 10th before we are going to Pro against evaluation about our students during that time we're going to analyze the Jada because our students have been out of school for time here and we need to gauge where they are academic okay a my question is how will we recapture all these students how how are we going to get all these students that we need to test that's that's my goal is to be had what 20/20 for 2700 how how are we going to get what what y'all planning to make sure that every student is tested to see where they are if that's applicable isolate so that's what I'm going to go through give me a minute mr. mowing I'm going to go through that and it's not going to be every student I want to be very clear here and again at the end of Kate this is only for students in kindergarten through 8th grade okay okay so we're going to send our students throughout the year. But this piece of the general assembly's expectation requires us Abby system requirements and the state to assist students and or bring them in 5 days early so that we can again wheat stands for learn evaluate and alive activities during that time are just because chosen to evaluate and analyze and prepare our students to learn moving forward so we're doing all of that okay Cheryl piece of assembly play she only requires us to again work with students in pre-kindergarten through eighth grade it is also clear and it's very important to understand that there is something called at 1:40 to 1:42 requires within the first 10 days of school we must every system must complete a pre-assessment okay a student in grade CD through 9th grade so we implement the plan that we are discussing the spine Leaf day early day a before the start of the school year and we're going to be able to meet obligation because we were pretty hairstyles diagnostic the week of the 10th to the 14th so we can meet that obligation during those five days because because act 142 station days of school the pre-assessment and upload that data into the system to be tracked legislative act 142 also requires again Ford system to ascent children okay in Grace CD through 9th grade before the end of the year so far up that would mean that we would be accepting our students before we dismiss. right now what we're discussing we're discussing almost simultaneously choosing when meeting the obligation of act 142 that has a requirement rentals assessment also, gation of early return dates for student that was passed by the South Carolina June was okay and so don't want nothing set aside for you by system and so the plants that we need to submit will be submitted to the state department and the deadline is Friday or you can apply for an extension to submit their plan immediately tomorrow Hallandale trouville of recommendation or tonight right now and I want to reiterate so that this is clear she's just would have normally reported back on the 10th anyway officially to begin on August so they always come back a week early before the kids come back we are asking our teachers now to come back in free trade through 8th grade 5 days early themselves so that they can be compensated okay to prepare to then work the week of August 10th to perform again the expectations of these five additional weekday their principles and their buildings will certainly get more but for the purposes of this presentation what we put together here or column so that you can understand so we had it broken out if you look at your far left Andie Case child development that's our Pre-K kindergarten 1st to 2nd grade and 3rd and 8th grade and if you will well I'm you'll see pre-planning the students complete will all students attend daily and we'll all teachers at and a lie that we provided the response is there for you so that a know that there is a schedule that we're falling for you ask the question is demoy how we get all the students in cd28 Grace there will first we need the parents okay we can get them there 21 our blessings we're going to provide in a detail schedule to our parents on what days are children will be there on a hybrid schedule just if we would have without Elementary coming out MGM okay and the a day b day for our middle school students again we do have to assess ninth grade but ninth grade is not in these first I be so our ninth grade students will be required to they start school August 17th officially they will be required to paint their assessment very diagnostic online this indicates what we're going to do during the free play each of these radio and then it talks about what students looking for kindergarten kindergarten math testing is what we're going to use that's in the Bible state that would diagnostic fee Chester see a map testing academic progress what that stands for okay is the week of the 17th for children which means for our foreign students we would want to again jump in again the following week because you will see that the student have multiple assessment that must be completed that is a requirement by the state okay us about we have to do it KRA assessment that cheapest must complete for kindergarten students at the kindergarten Readiness the right you will see that was kindergarten teacher Book on a nuisance are paraprofessionals prepared okay you will know here diagnose for our child development do they have to do something so so the question do all of our senses they don't know there are any specific schedule and we're going to have to do that until we get them all chests we're following the schedule for him I understand safety are you don't feel comfortable and we will have a strategic plan spread out very clear to assess our students appropriate for a couple of days not a consistent four days that we need them there to get this complete but we also if the parents do not want to send those things that need to come back for additional testing such as our kindergarten first and second grade students because they have multiple assassin in the days that are they are too much well we are willing to even do a drive-through assessment the following okay where we were actually J come out what are the car aligned with our headset all of the materials that we need a parenting singing car a child can be in the car we don't have to touch each other we would just use our instrument or Czar headset how to complete a reading test xHamster eat free at that time so we are even willing to do that there are option

Anderson talking about following skip here's what it would look like and we just gave you a sample schedule and we pulled one that way is secondary okay be no different if it were Elementary okay we just decided for the sake of time to provide here is what would happen if the sample middle school schedule I school schedule Elementary schedule Monday through Thursday and the reason why the secondary is because naturally middle school and high school goes to school at 8:45 to 3:45 the only opposite will be Elementary be 7:30 until 2:30 okay John Doe wakes up at 8 for PS4 release date wash your face book breakfast you already have that okay then what should John don't do if your first class starts at 8:45 in the middle school is called Intervention Jack time and at 8:45 that Percocet okay John's next schedule is class starts at 9:15 first month he was logging at 9:15 don't say that.

Anderson flat okay when I do have a counselor coming in to offer a guidance lesson okay for them at that time that is how we can make sure that we're making touching them and providing that social emotional support helping them understand how to navigate how to keep your spirits up so that's what's happening the first one same will apply the second you now I called my anticipatory said about this we can call it a warm-up I do now activities it takes 5 minutes not all day in 5 minutes is an icebreaker on my left my of my list where are you all their attention all right and so then I have 20 minutes of direct instruction this means a cheaper is directly at this time instructing whatever instructional content is supposed to with the objective of that lesson that is what I'm instructing at that time it's called again I'm doing at the cheaper if I do and then 50 minute after I teach it we do it together the student and the teacher okay we practice what I just talked to make sure before I let you go to do when you do your end an attraction for 30 minutes you have some practice time with me all right again if I said any student that struggling they can stay online and they can work in small the teacher for additional support if you mastered the concept you're ready to move on Halo and complete your assignment okay and then we'll have an exit split that can be submitted by the student and all that does is what are students know and whether they've mastered the content right you may continue please and if a parent they're asking how can I make sure my child is successful number one we have to follow the schedule there must be a place in your home or wherever your child will be and I'll get to childcare momentarily wherever they will Just Dance it made it for school work info I Can't Tell You Why to do in your house that I will lie with you it makes life much easier it is a designated area that is a this is where we get it done and this is what I expect and where I expect you shall forget it.

Malloy plan together coronavirus we don't have any answers we we have all the questions no answers but you and your staff a done a very good job of making sure that our kids are going to be secured Matthew Berry come with your plan and I supported but my only thing is I want to know about $330 food voucher that they given to the kids about that that's the only question death by ask question for tonight that the state is going to give all kids that qualify for reduced or free lunch if you explain that I'm with you 100% And you got my vote is nothing for me to explain that information went out public information officer on last week on our Facebook page that will be done through on DSs and that would be a actually a car that is actually mailed to the students home and information there miss them away. set on hand out that we do have posted online and so parents and perky accept that and if they have any questions too too too if they have not received their card with that amount they can certainly contact the appropriate agency to follow steps thank you so much you're doing a great job I appreciate you thank you anyone else Attorney Mary what I said and I just stay there I know it's a hard task at this point in time and something that none of us to live ever seen before and hopefully he we never see this again in our lifetime but no great job to you and your crew on the voucher that mr. Morris was just asking about is that a one time or staff or do we know yet reminder standing at the one time at this time for the memo $300 or more in 3333 each qualified yeah okay alright well that's all I have in a week thank you. Good job to you and your crew and as always any other questions regarding IMDb reopening update I got the answer I do have a question question well I don't I don't remember you to clarify if or are stating rather at the Boys & Girls Club on Bay at the West Hardeeville and at the facility is there a number that the boys and girls was trouble take how many students will be able to register for that program we did we don't have an exact count at this time with our operations department is currently doing is assessing those areas and we were safely provide that information on WE post it on like we have not given up the past but we will do so in remember our agreement that we have with them how much has to do with the building and I love about you know the medical aspect of it I know there is it supposed to have the policy of one movie call prakash the body while entering personal injury and also talks about property damages arising from you know something they did or did not do so you know two million-dollar coverage but question that I have is if someone were to come down with the virus is a parent or a child or an employee I was busy building so I'm not sure and I don't think but it says here that waving are they not going to go out to the school district if someone does come down yell and basically have to do with you know if someone gets hurt April May fall on the back in a liability it's going to come down with the virus but I am just a little bit concerned about that I know she's an old women athletes going sometime back long before the virus and I came into play so maybe you can address that question for me please attorney Marie D on your speaker agreement with the Boys & Girls Club in regards to insurance that they have any damages to property are also responsible for anything that's happened to individual members excetera that has been vetted that read me that you're looking at an hour I'm legal team and it certainly doesn't cover their liability policy if there was to be anything because they're their only partly dust cover they are just using facility to use the services of the Boys & Girls Club their services is a commitment to the Boys & Girls Club Jasper County School District the same is true for Adopt a Family like this in their facility but their services are with that site not with with us and it's the same as anyone working use our facility is well the services if someone rents they're just using our skeleton our building but the service is with the owner of an agency for the Boys & Girls Club corporated their policy would be the policy and that would be the service commitment 2 again which is why Jasper County cannot tell you how many slides are how much it may cost Xterra because it is not our program it is the boys and girls program my concern is you know those two were the Clements and and I'm certain we doing you know you and your crew doing the best that I'm following all the CDC guidelines and things like that state public health department I'm thinking you know if someone does come down with the virus you know are they going to Boys & Girls Club using our facility and Mike the right they are using our facility that is correct so my question is someone came down with the virus who were they going on legally for their medical expenses if they come after us so we can we can shut the gate and go ask to ask there at the Boys & Girls Club based on they have a million-dollar policy how do you say you've already I know you are surrounded by you know the legal team and so I guess you haven't given the green light and not with the district is with that agent yeah okay alright thank you thank you. The Henderson I know under recommendation we are you wanted us to vote on the virtual model tonight as we gone with the virtual and the hybrid do we have enough teachers do that to do I'm going to be gone with the virtual and the high bird we have enough teachers to send Doug Gould when you have enough teachers for both yes model because he would only be bringing in half of your student at a time so you would not have all of your seats in the building at the same time you only have half of your stomach at a time and so does the grand scheme up with biggie you may have a team of six individuals okay you can have a first grade teacher that has six teachers depending on how many for the hybrid model that you have 200 students are registered for our data have registered for the first reply okay only seventy-five of them desire okay the hybrid model the other remaining want the birth Walmart we have two now out of $60 / 75 tickets tomorrow okay Channel them one teacher or 10 students or the B12 in some classroom okay you would have enough teachers simply because again of the amount of individuals that are registered that desire but also you can actually teach a course a teacher can I see the teacher plan and still have their camera login okay for students to actually participate in extra see live what's happening in their classroom or right that allow us literally remote please show exactly what we're doing and so we are very much so technology-savvy have a great some great things going on and so if it Rochelle wants to sit at her house while music is teaching a lesson to the kids were in her classroom login we're doing right now and I will get the same instruction from that same teacher is not a separate nothing at all thank you you're welcome Harry no other questions and this time you have seen and heard the presentation and the recommendation coming from our superintendent to begin school year at 100% moving to a hybrid as as T are the numbers change and we get clearances for health professionals to move to a hybrid Amber floor model so at this time we will entertain a motion on the recommendation from the superintendent Madam chair I like to make a motion that we accept the recommendation coming from my house two 2020-2021 school year one hundred percent to move to a hybrid model and the numbers change in the recommendations come from the CDC second, it has been moved by mr. green and second by miss me to Moyes that we accept the recommendation coming from Doctor Anderson County school year 2020 21 year beginning August 10th as a virtual model 100% And to move as if she will bring back the information when we will go into both hybrid and questions Karen and I am going to take a roll call or are the minute Miss green toy Miss Riley Miss Mitchell Charlie Marie Fitzgerald eye the Hazel is absent Carolyn boat and I India poses Terry none of this board has accepted the recommendation from Doctor Anderson and we I'm doing this on President time we thank you for everything that you and the team have done I mean because it is truly nothing that has not been thought of you know and that's the plan and go through in the only question that I can come up what's the one with the capacity and an energy say that that would be the entity of the Boys & Girls Club to determine their capacity and holds this District, so that's the main thing we want to make sure that we're doing what's right for our Para student kudos to the team because this was a lot of work and every every ounce of anything that you thought about was in the safe.
