Discussion timeline
Times are taken from the dialogue transcript (Dialogue/14627 SchoolBoard091522.mp4.CSV) and link into the recording.
Chronological topics with what was said. Quotations are from the transcript as transcribed.
| Time | Topic | What was said | Flags |
|---|
| 0:00:51 | Opening order | The chair starts on the agenda, then stops: "Hold on. We're missing the roll call." (0:01:11). Roll called by Ben Nester. | |
| 0:03:03 | Citizens' comments rules | Chair: "Just a reminder that citizens comments at this time are for non-agenda items." and "It's not really a time for back and forth and question and answer with the board or admin." | OBSERVATION |
| 0:03:27 | Candidate introduction | The chair says Hope Damon contacted the SAU and that the board has invited candidates before: "This is not in any way an endorsement of this board." He invites any candidate watching "to come as well to a meeting and introduce themselves" (0:03:55). Damon, of Croydon, describes the redrawn House districts and says "the number one reason I'm running is to work on adequacy of funding for public schools" (0:05:26). | POSITIVE |
| 0:07:00 | Crawford's three questions | Candace Crawford, Ward 2, asks whether district counsel reported back on the tech-center guidance counselor position added at the February deliberative session ("did the attorney ever get back to the school board", 0:08:18); how often Stevens counselors visit the tech center (0:09:11); and whether about $650,000 in grant money that had to be identified by September 15 was used: "I'm hoping as a taxpayer that that $650,000 was identified and will be used" (0:10:12). Chair: "You can ask the questions the answered, probably via email or." (0:07:10). No answer is given on the record. | OBSERVATION |
| 0:10:48 | Student representative | Open houses at Maple (September 27), Bluff (September 29) and CMS (October 6). A Stevens survey drew 119 responses; 62.2% said the Cardinal recognition cards "are already making a positive impact on Stevens" and 14.3% of students had received one (0:12:16). | |
| 0:14:57 | Superintendent's report | FableVision and author Peter Reynolds's Dot Day literacy events, organized by literacy specialist Stephanie Hurst and paid from grant money (0:15:30). Family movie night drew mostly Bluff families; Tempesta says a Wednesday date would have drawn more (0:17:29). Skillen asks that families be notified earlier next time (0:18:23); Tempesta: "absolutely. We can." | |
| 0:19:42 | Budget subcommittee | Seaman: "close to $200,000 of contractual increases that come from our four negotiated agreements" (0:21:32); teacher negotiations under way; health insurance rates expected mid-October; utilities "a significant increase over the previous year budget" (0:22:52); adequacy aid draft due November 15 (0:23:18); the process starts about a month earlier than last year. Petrin asks each member to email a budget goal: "Is your goal to not have it affect the tax rate at all?" (0:24:53). | |
| 0:25:52 | Policy subcommittee | Horsky: the committee decided "to spend a little bit of money to have a full policy review done by the Hampshire School Board Association" [New Hampshire School Boards Association] to purge outdated policies and confirm compliance; also studying transportation in lieu of district buses (0:26:17). | |
| 0:27:25 | Elementary restructuring and schedule committees | Tempesta: administrators have met but "We have not met with the board members yet on those committee"; an update and a sign-up survey are promised for the next meeting (0:27:50, 0:28:38). | |
| 0:29:02 | Ad hoc parliamentary procedure committee | Petrin, Sprague and (absent) Whitney met on September 16. Sprague's notes: an SB 2 timetable because deadlines are "all dictated by statute" (0:30:13); norms on talking to the press ("It's not a good look for the board when that happens", 0:30:55); agenda requests; curriculum adoption; managing public comment "So the public comment doesn't become a forum"; and a way for answers to citizens' questions to reach the whole board: "it would be good if there was a process for the whole board to hear what the answers to her questions were, for example, instead of just her" (0:31:46). Draft to be shared on Google Drive. | OBSERVATION |
| 0:34:01 | Policies JICD and JICK | Sprague moves third and final approval. Horsky wants to remove an optional section of the discipline policy: "There was an optional section in there in regards to superintendent being able to basically kind of change his mind or lighten the punishment." (0:34:18). Skillen: "Can we save this for next time with Josh and Heather?" (0:34:55). Sprague: "I will withdraw my motion." Horsky: "So I'd like to make a motion to move them to third." (0:35:14). Carried by voice. | POSITIVE |
| 0:36:06 | 2022 graduation profile | The profile goes to colleges. The counseling office is down to two counselors and hiring a third. "So the total of that was 59% of our kids last year went to a 2 or 4 year college"; "2% went to the military and 35% went to employment" (0:36:51, 0:37:18). Diploma levels: distinction, district standard (23 credits), state standard (20 credits), plus a certificate of attendance for some special education students. SAT scores are no longer listed. Crawford asks for the freshman-to-graduation rate (0:40:20); the counselor: "No, I did not do that percent. I don't have that number." (0:40:34). The chair directs the answer to go through the superintendent (0:41:04). | |
| 0:41:41 | ESSER III update | Tempesta lists submitted uses: health screeners $52,330; health software $25,000 a year for 2022-23 and 2023-24; transportation routing software; emergency diagnostic placements; $147,000 for late buses (dependent on finding drivers); $161,000 for what the transcript renders as "Some of program on this iteration" (probably the summer program) (0:42:11 to 0:43:47); additional academic support staff "nearly approaching $3 million" (0:44:44); CTE outreach for eighth graders, the Miss Kendra program, family engagement $50,000, STEM programs, and the Amplify CKLA and Wit and Wisdom pilots (0:48:30, 0:49:22). On hiring: "we were very successful at hiring this year" (0:46:43). Nester: one student is in a 90-day diagnostic placement (0:50:47). Sprague asks about ESSER II; a report is promised for the next meeting (0:51:18). | |
| 0:52:51 | Curriculum team: assessment results | Koski: i-Ready reading, "We have 44% of our students from 20 1920 at grade level or above. In 2021, it went up to 50 and then to 51." against an 80% benchmark (0:54:20). Courses and assessments are being aligned to state standards on professional development days (0:58:28). | |
| 0:55:21 | Summer program data lost | Hurst: the summer program used a growth-monitoring assessment rather than the diagnostic, and after the school-year rollover "we can't access that data" (0:55:44). Next summer will use a pre and post standards-mastery assessment with a separate roster (0:56:07). Koski: "we we lost the data basically that was during the rollover to the new year" (0:57:33). | |
| 1:00:43 | Math and literacy approach | Pelkey explains the progression from counting to functional reasoning and plans for number talks (1:00:43, 1:09:35). Hurst presents Scarborough's reading rope and the LETRS training, with 24 teachers piloting Wit and Wisdom and CKLA for Curriculum Council review (1:04:31, 1:06:01). Skillen asks about reading incentives; Sprague asks how teachers are taking to it. | |
| 1:10:53 | Transportation update | Two drivers out; "we have actually Pamela, our transportation coordinator, is driving a route" (1:10:54). Counsel advised that school employees drive; the district is consulting the School Boards Association (1:14:20). Petrin asks why the district buses the football team and band to home games at Barnes Park (1:15:37); Tempesta will find out. | |
| 1:18:10 | SB 420 funds: process | Seaman: "It's actually a two step process" (1:19:19): a public hearing on a draft warrant with "seven clear days" of notice, then a special district meeting with seven days' posting including the newspaper (1:19:49). Proposed dates: hearing October 5, meeting on the 19th (1:20:23, 1:20:45). The amount is "$429,867.51", tied to SB 420 aid for communities where the ratio of free and reduced lunch pupils to property valuation is "the most unbalanced" (1:21:30). It arrived after the budget was set; without a special meeting it "will just be incorporated into the tax rate setting that will take place in December" (1:22:37). Trust money is held by the trustees of trust funds and drawn on board vote (1:23:41). | MEDIUM |
| 1:24:23 | SB 420 funds: allocation debate | Seaman expects heating costs about $100,000 over budget, with electricity "up a 70 to 80%" (1:24:41, 1:24:50). Horsky proposes $100,000 to transportation, the balance to fuel and $200,000 to capital improvements (1:26:13, 1:26:37): "I see this as a way for us to get ahead, have proper trust funds set up" (1:28:38). Miles asks how firm the fuel and bus figures are (1:27:30). Seaman: an expendable trust can be liquidated or reallocated by the board (1:29:46); the transportation trust holds "about 230,000 in that range, 270" (1:30:07), later given as 262123 [$262,123] (1:38:25); trust money has no time limit (1:30:31). No member mentions how the district's use of the funds relates to student achievement. | MEDIUM |
| 1:31:53 | SB 420 motion | Horsky: "I would like to make a motion that we are going to hold a special town meeting to approve a warrant, as follows." $129,867.51 to an energy trust, $100,000 to the transportation trust and $200,000 to the capital improvement trust under RSA 197, and "Paragraph three in this hearing would be on October 5th in the vote goes to the public on October 19th." (1:32:28). Skillen seconds; carried by voice (1:32:48). Location: likely the Stevens auditorium; about 120 people came to the 2019 special meeting on "$1.3 million" (1:33:30). | MEDIUM OBSERVATION |
| 1:34:00 | 2019 special education trust and IEP staffing | Skillen asks what happened to money set aside at the December 12, 2019 special meeting to keep higher-needs students in district, and whether it relates to "compliance with IEPs, lack of professional help for the higher needs students, not enough staffing or case managers" (1:34:20). Nester: half was meant to build a program, which brought two students back from Vermont (1:35:47). Seaman: the program was funded from the local budget instead, so the trust "still has a balance of $650,000" (1:36:07). Nester on staffing: "it's not a money issue. It's just the bodies are not there to do the work." (1:37:22). Skillen asks administration to request use of the fund if it could help (1:38:11). | OBSERVATION |
| 1:39:02 | Graduation rate | Horsky asks for last year's freshman-through-senior graduation percentage. Tempesta: early-high-school attrition is a priority and an ESSER target: "We're not satisfied with what we've how we've looked at that over time." (1:40:05). | |
| 1:41:07 | Agenda requests | Petrin asks members to email agenda requests with the subject "agenda item" so they are not lost. | |
| 1:41:49 | Adjournment | Horsky moves to adjourn; carried. | |
Items flagged for review
These flags are a reviewer's aid, not findings of violation and not legal advice. Each one names the rule it rests on, as that rule read on September 21, 2022, or is labeled an observation where no verified rule applies.
MEDIUM The board committed the whole SB 420 grant to fuel, bus and building reserves without discussing the plan the grant law requires
Seaman described the $429,867.51 as SB 420 aid for communities with the most unbalanced ratio of free and reduced lunch pupils to property valuation (1:21:30). That is the extraordinary need grant created by 2022 N.H. Laws ch. 318 (SB 420), now RSA 198:40-f. Paragraph II of that section, in force from July 1, 2022, reads: "In order to receive an extraordinary need grant, the eligible school district shall provide a plan to the department of education outlining how the district intends to use grant award funds to improve the educational achievement and growth of students", and the plan must include "an accountability component designed to generate data that measures student academic achievement and growth of knowledge and skills in reading and language arts and/or mathematics" and states that "The primary goal of this grant is to improve student achievement and growth" (statute text). The board's discussion (1:24:23 to 1:32:28) treated the money as a windfall to bank against energy, bus and roof costs, and no one on the recording mentioned the plan, the Department of Education or student achievement before the vote. The requirement was known to administration: eight days later the superintendent told the SAU 6 board that "We have to have accountability plans for both saying how we're going to use the money" (show 14630, quoted from that meeting's transcript; see SAU 6 Board, September 29, 2022). Mitigation: the vote only set a hearing on a draft warrant, and on October 5 a member raised exactly this question and the board tabled the warrant to get counsel's advice. Whether the statute restricts what a district may spend the grant on, as opposed to requiring a plan, is a legal question this page does not decide; the gap is that the board voted without the question being asked.
Sources: RSA 198:40-f, I-II, 2022 codification (source: 2022, 318:1, eff. July 1, 2022): extraordinary need grants; plan to the department with an accountability component; RSA 198:41, I(e), 2022 codification (2022, 318:2): the grant is added to the municipality's total education grant
OBSERVATION First meeting under the new public-comment statute: a seven-minute period limited to non-agenda items, with questions sent to email
RSA 189:74, effective September 6, 2022, requires a school board to "provide the opportunity for the public to comment on school district matters" at its meetings and sets the period at "no less than 30 minutes" (statute text). Fifteen days later the chair opened citizens' comments at 0:03:03 with the reminder that they "are for non-agenda items" and closed them at 0:10:40 after two speakers, about seven and a half minutes. No one was turned away, and the text does not settle whether the 30 minutes is a floor on the opportunity or on elapsed time, so this is not graded as a violation. Two points remain for review: the statute speaks of "school district matters", while the board's rule confines the period to non-agenda items; and Crawford's three questions were deferred to email with no answer on the record. The chair did let her ask a question during the graduation-profile item (0:40:15), and Sprague's committee report proposed a process so the whole board hears such answers (0:31:46). On October 5 Crawford said she was still waiting for one of them.
Sources: RSA 189:74 (2022, 333:1, eff. Sept. 6, 2022): public comment at school board meetings, no less than 30 minutes
OBSERVATION The earliest public copy of these minutes is the approved version, posted 27 days after the meeting
RSA 91-A:2, II requires minutes to be "open to public inspection not more than 5 business days after the meeting" (statute text), which for September 21, 2022 was September 28. The only copy located is Approved CSB Meeting Minutes 9.21.22, created in the October 5 packet folder on October 18, 2022. A draft must have existed for the board to approve it on October 5, but none was found in Drive. The September 7 minutes, filed in this meeting's folder, were created there on September 23, also more than five business days after their meeting. Drive posting dates show when the public share received a file, not whether minutes were available for inspection at the SAU office, so this is an observation rather than a finding. On the content side, the approved minutes do name the mover and seconder of each motion, as RSA 91-A:2, II has required since January 1, 2019.
Sources: RSA 91-A:2, II, 2022 codification (source note ends 2018, 244:1): minutes, mover and seconder, five business days
OBSERVATION The motion, the agenda, the minutes and the later warrant give different statutes and dates for the special meeting
The agenda cites "Special Town Meeting (RSA 197:3)"; Horsky's motion, as transcribed, cites RSA 197 followed by Paragraph three (split across two transcript rows) and sets the vote "on October 19th" (1:32:28); Seaman also proposed the 19th (1:20:45). The approved minutes record the special meeting as "10.20.22 at Stevens High school auditorium" (minutes text), and the draft warrant presented on October 5 calls the meeting under RSA 197:3-a for "Wednesday, October 20, 2022" (warrant text), a date that fell on a Thursday; the error was corrected aloud on October 5. RSA 197:3-a is the specific procedure for a single-session special meeting in an official-ballot district responding to a change in aid under RSA 198:41; it requires the hearing "at least 14 days prior to the meeting" (statute text), which either date satisfies after an October 5 hearing. The minutes describe a decision the recording does not show being made; the change from the 19th to the 20th is not explained on this tape.
Sources: RSA 197:3-a, IV-VII, 2022 codification (source: 2013, 197:1): hearing at least 14 days before; notice 7 days before hearing and meeting; no other business; Claremont Special District Warrant - 10.20.22 - FINAL.pdf
OBSERVATION A $650,000 special education trust sat unused for nearly three years while staffing for students with IEPs was described as a crisis
Seaman confirmed that the expendable trust created at the December 2019 special meeting "still has a balance of $650,000" because the program it was meant to fund was paid from the local budget (1:36:07). Skillen reported "a lot of concern in the community among parents of students with IEPs" (1:36:47); Nester attributed the shortfall to the labor market, not money (1:37:22). No rule requires a trust to be spent, and drawing on an expendable trust under RSA 198:20-c requires a prior public hearing, so the board's next step would be a request from administration, which Skillen invited (1:38:11). The figures and the request are recorded here so later pages can follow what happened to the fund.
Sources: the recording (1:34:00 to 1:38:11); RSA 198:20-c, 2019 codification (source ends 2012, 219:2, 3): expendable trust funds; public hearing before expenditure
POSITIVE A candidate's introduction was handled evenhandedly
Before a state House candidate spoke, the chair said the board had invited candidates before, stated "This is not in any way an endorsement of this board", and extended the same invitation to every candidate watching (0:03:27, 0:03:55). The approved minutes repeat the disclaimer. No law requires this; it is the kind of even handling that keeps a public meeting from becoming a campaign platform for one side.
Sources: the recording (0:03:27 to 0:04:09); Approved CSB Meeting Minutes 9.21.22
POSITIVE Final adoption of two policies was held back so the absent members could weigh in
With two members absent, a member asked to wait, the mover withdrew a motion for third and final reading, and the board instead moved the policies to a third reading "just in case they had something to add" (0:34:55 to 0:35:31). The two policies were adopted at the next meeting. Taking an extra reading is not required by statute; it gave the full board a voice on a student-discipline policy.
