Item 4
Yes, I'm excited to introduce to you a student from Davidson Elementary School. His name is Arthur Mamira and the principal is Jesse Miller. He's in the fifth grade. He has his parents here with him, Anil and Samia, and he has some siblings, Saharish, Mamira, and I don't see, is she here with us? Okay, she's at home in bed doing homework.
She's in pre-K.
All right, we start tomorrow. But let me tell you, we've got, Throob's got some special interests. Star Trek is one of them. Technology. I guess the show, The Orville, is that right? Is it a show that he enjoys? Politics and debate. You're going to do well in this setting right here. All right?
My favorite subject is social studies. I'm just going to give you a little information about him from some of his teachers.
Arthur is an outstanding young man. The passion he expresses for learning is beyond anything I've ever seen from any other student.
He comes to school each day ready to learn and is always enthusiastic.
Arthur is not only a strong student academically, he is a great classmate to the fifth graders.
As our student council classroom representative, already in politics, he strives to make all of the students in our class feel important.
Arthur Rube is truly a remarkable student and it is our pleasure to be his teacher.
Well, let me tell you, it's our pleasure to be your superintendent and school board also.
The mic is yours. Why don't you come on up and lead the way.
Please stand for the American and Texas flags.
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
And now the Texas flag.
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
You may now be seated.
Alright, the mic is yours.
The reason I like Davidson so much is because of the facilities it provides to enhance the learning of my peers and I.
Some of the facilities are the computer lab, the science lab, the gym, and the art room.
The biggest thing that stands out about Davidson is the people.
All the staff is kind and they stand around in the mornings and help out the students.
And the volunteers are always helping out at special events.
Well, they're just amazing people who are kind and generous.
Some of the things I would like to do after high school is get a 1600 on my SATs.
That's a goal.
Go into the field of civil engineering.
Attend MIT.
I would like to join the Navy in a command position and rise to the rank of captain and
get a job in a good engineering company.
Very nice.
Congratulations.
We don't know whether to applaud or pick our chins up off the floor.
Did you say fifth grade?
I'd like to check the credits.
Right?
Feeling very, very poised and confident,
and we can tell that you're going to be super successful.
Thank you for contributing to KDISD
and for loving on our schools, our teachers, and other students.
As a trustee, I have the privilege of giving you this certificate of recognition for speaking to us tonight and for leading us in our pledges.
And give you this very special, this is the first ever, right?
We used to give lunchboxes and then Harvey kind of like took care of the lunchboxes.
And now we have this super cool backpack, right?
And you were the very first recipient.
And there are only about nine students who get this.
So it's indeed very, very special as you are.
It's very nice to meet you.
Please, I want to keep up with how you're doing, okay, and all the fun things you do.
Congratulations.
It was my pleasure to be here.

Item 5.1
Next on our agenda, I'd like to introduce Ms. Maria DiPetta, our manager for media relations and multimedia,
for the recognition portion of our meeting here tonight.
Good evening, Madam President, board members, and Superintendent Hintz.
We start tonight with Project Adam. A Project Adam Heart Safe School designation means a campus has taken all of the necessary steps to safeguard the health of its students.
This includes ensuring that all AEDs, also known as automated external defibrillators, are available and accessible, that there's a written plan, a team of CPR AED trained staff ready to act in case of an emergency, and conduct emergency response practice drills.
Two campuses have been awarded with a Heart Safe School designation for Project Adam.
Please join me in recognizing Kalli Hildebrand, Davidson Elementary School Nurse, and Bernadette Kingsley, Nurse at King Elementary.
That's your turn.
I'm getting in front of the camera.
Congratulations to our nurses on this great accomplishment.
Thank you.

Item 6.2
Ms. Swinley. I'd like to start this off like I did last week this is part of our
strategic plan was to give you guys a report on the GT program seek input from
you and any questions you may have.
Good evening President Vann, members of the board and Superintendent Hint. I'm
very pleased to present this report to you on the junior high GT model of
services. This report is a result of actions required by KDISD strategic
design goal 1 with the specific result 1.9 provide a report on the feasibility
of making recommendations for the gifted and talented junior high model. I will
begin by establishing a picture of the current status of the GT program and its
design. We serve almost 2,000 students in grades 6 through 8. This represents about
a little over 11% of the student enrollment in these grades. You'll see
that the enrollment of course is going up, the percentage of GT students at the
the junior high level is also increasing.
The junior high GT enrollment by ethnicity, you see the ethnic makeup of these 2,000 students
in this graph.
And our current program serves gifted students through advanced academics in the four core
areas of math, science, social studies, and English, and subject specific matter aptitude
model.
model. It serves students at their home campus and all 15 junior highs through their pre-AP
GT courses. And it serves students in courses designated as GT with a teacher who has completed
the 30 hours of GT training. Additionally, we have gifted facilitators at each campus,
either one or two days a week. They manage the screening process, monitor services and
student performance and they track professional development. Gifted students
also are clustered in these sections designated as pre-ABGT and ideally
these sections should consist primarily of students identified as gifted.
This chart summarizes the core course offerings for our GT students in grades
grades 6 through 8. The four core are represented here.
And research-based best practices support the KDISD model of GT service. The National
Association for Gifted Children supports four design elements, all of which are employed
by KDISD, as well as supported by the Texas State Plan for the Education of Gifted Students.
You'll see that we identify students by strength in a core content area, we cluster or group
our GT students together, we provide professional development for teachers of the gifted, and
we provide an accelerated curriculum or advanced academic above grade level content, and also
options for credit by exam.
In this review of the Junior High GT program, we were able to gather information from a
variety of sources.
The first one, the survey, was part of the annual GT program evaluation in 2016-2017.
The focus was on the secondary program and we sent surveys to students, identified students in grades 6, 9, and 11,
their parents, as well as to secondary teachers, counselors, and principals.
In addition, we examined data from the curriculum documents, enrollment data, master schedules,
professionals, professional development records, and we spoke with students, principals, parents,
and other districts.
Our findings fall into four broad categories, the identification processes, services, curriculum
and instruction, and professional development.
Related to our identification processes, teachers and principals expressed some concern about
whether the identification processes for secondary placement adequately matches
the program design and our identified GT population is not representative of the
student demographics in terms of services provided the grouping of GT
students into GT classrooms is accomplished well on many campuses
parents students and teachers prefer classes made up entirely of GT
GT-identified students. The transition from the elementary pullout program to the secondary
model for some students is difficult due to the change in the program model. The social
and emotional needs of gifted students should continue to be addressed. The role of the
GT facilitator is somewhat misunderstood by campus staff. And while other districts also
serve GT students in pre-AP courses, several have multidisciplinary content or independent
research elements as requirements for GT students. A review of our curriculum
indicated that instructional guidance and resources were found to address the
unique needs of gifted learners and while these curriculum documents include
strategies and resources for gifted learners, teachers do need training on
the use of those resources. Gifted students also report to us that classes
that are appropriately paced and allow choice and demonstrating learning are
more interesting and more valuable. And then our last finding in professional
development at this point in the school year we have we have approximately 7%
of our junior high staff still in need of completing those 30 hours. As a
result of these findings the following are the recommendations for the junior
high program. In regard to our identification process, we want to
investigate the possibility of testing fifth grade students district-wide to
assist in a secondary course and GT program placement decisions and to
continue to employ equity measures through targeted outreach. Our
recommendations related to program services include continuing to cluster
GT students in high density groups, investigate options for an advisory
curriculum to support the social and emotional needs of gifted students in
the junior high setting, investigate the possibility of developing a
multidisciplinary curriculum for sixth grade students to ease that transition
from the elementary pullout to the secondary program, and investigate
redefining the role of the GT facilitator. In the area of curriculum
instruction we want to continue to emphasize strategies for GT students
within the curriculum continue to highlight elements of effective GT
instruction for administrators and teachers increase the focus planning and
instruction for GT students by designating fewer teachers as pre-ap GT
teachers and support the use of pre-assessments to guide instructional
instructional practices for gifted learners.
And for professional development, we want to continue to develop and deliver
professional development in meeting the social and emotional needs of the gifted student.
This aligns very nicely with the strategic design goal number eight.
Continue to develop and deliver online professional development for ease of access
for teachers, administrators, and counselors.
counselors, investigate the development of a KDISD GT Advanced Academic Summer Institute
for junior high GT teachers, provide ongoing GT training specific to each content area
and differentiation strategies, and investigate the possibility of a GT support position to
assist with GT lesson design and professional development.
And those are our recommendations.
Have any questions?
I'd be glad to answer them.
Mr. Bryan was always proud about talking about how band and choir perform so well compared
to the normal group of students.
Have you ever looked at how our GT students perform comparative to the rest of the students
at Katy?
And what I'm kind of asking is, is the GT program students, is their performance actually
actually as a whole much better than the average group of students?
Are we seeing them clustered in our AP programs?
Because the GT program is kind of an expensive program.
The students are performing at the top of the class.
They do outperform other students.
Thank you.
Anyone else?
I have a quick question, although I probably should know this answer.
So, eyebrow raises when I see that there's the potential to test the fifth grade students district-wide.
Yes, sir.
Do you know what that cost might be per student or what it would cost the district district-wide
if something we were to do, if something would be something the board would need to be aware of?
I did request a quote just to gauge the amount that it would cost.
It's about $96,000 for 6,000 fifth graders.
Okay, and that is to determine whether or not some of those non-qualified GT students would qualify for further...
It would do a couple of things. Right now, students that are currently in the GT program are transitioned to the secondary program without any new testing data to make those determinations.
So it would help us identify students more specifically for the core content areas that
they would be joining in the secondary program.
The second thing that we do, which principals have asked for, is to help them make placement
decisions for other kinds of programs in their campus.
So it's not just for the GT program, but also for the other as well.
Right now we do screen non-identified fifth graders and there is a cost associated with
with that so it would be the 96,000 minus the cost we're already doing to
identify those students that are not currently identified as GT.
Another I've already raised for me was 7% of our teachers teaching GT curriculum right now
still are in my understanding is from many moons ago when I was principal they
have a period of time to do that during the year while they're teaching that
course you also mentioned the Summer Institute with the Summer Institute be
geared to making sure we start the year with all of our teachers?
How they qualified or qualified in the GT?
Okay, we do have a summer institute that is 30 hours of GT training.
And so we have awarded 76 30-hour certificates this year.
Part of those were done completely in the summer.
Some of it was done in the summer and then finished up over the course of the year in the Saturday training that we offer,
or online training that we offer.
The 7% that represents 21 teachers who have been working on that training but for one
reason or another have not actually finished the entire 30 hours.
By state law, they should be finished by the end of the first semester.
We do notify the principals if they're not in compliance.
Gotcha.
Well, then the final thing, I've spent a couple of meetings with you and a core group of GT
parents and you have to appreciate their passion and I just have to say this you
are a godsend your knowledge of the GT program the curriculum is beyond
anybody's knowledge and I just thank you for what you do I appreciate you saying
that you saved me in other words.
Any time Dr. Hint. Any time. Anyone else?

It is the same item that we discussed last week.
What you will see here is that we specifically listed the item and the address and the abstract numbers in Fort Bend County.

know that the earnest money has already been paid and we're looking forward to
closing on that property by the end of the week so that we have it fully in our

indicated that you know the majority of the people wanted that there was that
to treat true boundary line there's 12 kids there now it's about 40 kids in the
future it's one little area called Bora lakes is that correct Sora I'm sorry and
And we feel like we can accommodate it with what we're doing.
As I understand the discussion, using option one,
Lilly is consistent with the policy that we may need to employ with future ABMs
in terms of best use of facilities.
Is that right?
Absolutely.

recall we pulled this last week
so that the administration could take a harder
look at it. I will tell you that we looked at
it. I'm very comfortable with the
revisions. Of course we can't change the legal
but there are 16 local policies administration took a look at those and
we're very comfortable with the revisions that TEA has provided they're
typically perfunctory in nature. Madam President. Mrs. Fox. I move that the Board of
Trustees approves the legal policies and adopts the local policies included in
board policy update 109. Second. A motion has been made by Mrs. Fox is second by
Mr. Griffin that the Board of Trustees approves the legal policies and adopts
the local policies included in Board Policy Update 109. Any more discussion?
Oh I'm deafier that way I thought you were voting. Well then let's just do it.
All in favor please raise your right hand. Motion passes six to zero. Now I
Items 9 - 11
our board member, Mr. Scott, for TASB board of directors.
I did just pass out a document that Commissioner Morath presented to the TASB, and I'll make
a brief reference to it.
I'm going to try to summarize this, but I do want to say, as I've said to the board
before, the TASB seat belongs to KISD, not to Joe Adams or Henry DeBrell or George Scott.
It belongs to the board and it's a privilege to serve on TASB but the only reason I would
want to stay on TASB is if this board is supportive of my efforts there and I think that requires
me to kind of keep you informed as to what my efforts there are.
I have not spent so much time already on TASB related matters to be a potted plant at their
meetings, pursue leadership there, or to suddenly change stripes and try to become a social
butterfly. My sole interest there is to further the interest of KTISD and
public education in a specific context. In Katy and TASB, we're entering a
critical phase during which work on the January 2019 Texas legislative session
needs to begin soon. TASB's legislative process, while
sophisticated and mature, has gaps which I have addressed in meetings there. From
From my first meeting last summer at TASB through this past December, I have focused
primarily on those values embedded in Goal 6 of KTISD's Strategic Plan – constitutional
finance, constitutional equity, and accountability standards insulated from the TEA's and the
Texas Legislature's pervasive dishonesty.
My efforts have involved extremely candid conversations with TASB professional and board
leadership, key TASB staff, and rank-and-file TASB board members with an
aggressive and personal outreach to African American and Hispanic board
members in particular above and beyond those minority leaders in TASB
leadership. I think it's important to understand that KDISD is an evolving
district. We have a dramatically changing demographics. We have a goal six that
that talks about equity and finance and return of local control. And I think as
you're represented with 11 belief, one core belief that I have is that I need
to represent the district and make a very aggressive outreach to minority
members of Taz be in particular because we have a lot in common as we go down
the goal six strategy and I want to say this I encourage both the board
president and our superintendent to engage independently TASB leadership in
order to assure themselves that my efforts at TASB are being perceived as
direct but professional I think it is important that I have as I address
issues at TASB that I not be seen as a lone wolf or a singular voice. And so the
rest of this report is to try to give you an idea of what I've done in my
first three meetings. And I know this has not been common and maybe as a result of
this briefing it will become even less common, but at least I have the floor
tonight. I've been assigned to budget and finance and that's that was not my first
goal but if Katie Gold's six plans evolve successfully that's a potentially
good place for me to be. Primary focus thus far but it's been grounded in
issues not I'm a good guy you're a good guy it's personal relationships with the
executive staff the board leadership and the executive committee this includes
executive director Jim Crow and each and every individual member of the TASB
board. There is an irony here. I can have more detailed conversations with TASB
board members than I can with you all because of the open meeting time. So one
of the things that has happened, I kind of have a vision and I think we all have
sort of a vision about where goal six and strategic and our strategic plan is
going. I, y'all know last graduation I was putting together a TASB study. I can
I can actually sit down and go over them with detailed information, but because it may become an agenda item here, I can't do it with you.
I do believe that we're going to catch up on that pretty soon with Goal 6.
Our mutual outreach to, when I say ours, the TASB board members and mine, I believe they understand.
Charles Stafford, who was the outgoing president, a really good guy, he lied about my one golf game in 25 years.
He called me a stiff breeze in front of the executive committee, and he's pretty good about that.
That was funny, actually.
But the point is what I'm trying to do is encourage a relationship with them so that they understand that there are serious issues that confront this district,
and we need to be able to visit with TASB and get their expertise to the degree we can.
The second, and I would say that my plan, I probably had eight to ten very detailed
discussions with some of the minority members.
I do plan on traveling to about four or five communities over the next couple of months
so that I can visit with more in their home just on a personal basis.
system. My number one concern about TASB is pretty much one of my central
concerns about KDISD and that is the legislative agenda committee process. I
believe that that clearly when you look at the the scope of issues that we have
to deal with the the there has to be a more due diligence orientation some of
of the legislative resolutions that got to the TASB
delegate convention were frankly as perfunctory
as you could get.
I mean, I don't know how the discipline process
got it there.
So what I want to outline is this,
that my efforts at TASB have been to talk about equity
and finance at full board discussions
and at committee meetings.
As a board member, I've attended and addressed equity and finance issues before the legislative
committee openly suggesting an enhanced effort.
As a board member, I addressed direct and key questions regarding equity to TEA Commissioner
Mack Moret, had a question and answer attended by all board members.
Kind of like you sometimes, they're probably holding their breath when I raise my hand.
but it was very direct questioning and I even called Dr. Hinn afterwards to tell
him how excited I was that we have a Commissioner of Education that actually
will tell the truth in public and he did he answered a very fundamental question
and I think it's going to end up being directly related to our goal six
strategic six I look forward to the day if our if this relationship continues to
build that Katie ISB might well host some Katie is some TASB leadership and
from executives and some of the board members from around here in Katie where
if if we do get something going on goal six there's a lot of common denominators
out there but this plan is going to be so more sophisticated than a typical
legislative plan that I think it would be good when we can to to to expand our
discussions in a fundamental way. I've set the groundwork for the district, I
believe, for our superintendent, board president, and key administrators to meet
with Jim Crow and some of the TASB experts. After my questioning of Morath, I
actually went up to him afterwards and told him that in the 44 years I've been
doing this, involved with every commissioner going back to Ernest Bynum,
I said there's no doubt in my mind that the average IQ of the Commissioner's Chair is
now about 60 to 70 points higher and that you are a very honest person.
But I will tell you honestly that this program right here implies that we have a growing
centralization, more and more power coming into the Texas Education Agency.
It's becoming the Department of Education, not only Potomac, but only Travis.
And I think going forward that we need to have a more sophisticated legislative process.
So here's what I'm going to take it on myself to do in terms of bringing a decision tree
to you all.
I'm going to ask that we have a discussion in January about how we proceed with the legislative
agenda.
I will ask that an item be placed on the KDISD's January workshop that will give me an opportunity
to suggest a totally revised board process that would be conducted in full public view,
not dependent upon a small committee of board members, friends, or supporters
in a process that lacks both seriousness and due diligence.
Rather, it will be a process that guarantees high quality and professional input
in identifying those issues most important to KDISD,
in particular in public education in general.
Coordination with experts in and out of KD
would offer a practical kind of due diligence in the developmental process.
A full broad-based and opportunity for significant input by rank-and-file
citizens throughout KDISD that goes way beyond the three minutes at the end of
a long meeting with no opportunity for direct exchange. There are informed
people in this community and preferential membership on a small,
essentially cloaked committee should not take precedence over strategically
inclusive public involvement. A full commitment to public hearings at least
at two strategic times before the finalization of the legislative pan and
a final product that will not include template stereotypical political mantras
that dominate so much of public education's knee-jerk stereotypical
strategeries that reach and are often systemically dismissed by
hardcore legislative process that is decidedly hostile to public education.
You have a plan in here. It's not mentioned explicitly. You have to be
there to appreciate it. Where in the, and this is an example, where looking ahead
head to certification, we'
administrators. And what
we're going to have some
going to be a piece. Okay
under one set of criteria
I just had a one word que
retroactive. No, but it m
it to be. So we're going
where new administrators
coming in are going to have to videotape themselves giving answers on how they deal with situations.
Steven Spielberg couldn't make this smart.
The notion that we're going to invest that sort of autocratic, autonomous authority over our administrators and our school board,
It sucks away local control. It takes it to Austin. It's insane.
And we have to develop, I believe, and that's what I'm going to ask this board to do,
we have to develop something.
We owe it to our classroom teachers. We owe it to our campus-based administrators.
We owe it to our central administrators that have to cope with and interact
with an ever-expanding authoritarianism from Austin vastly more than stereotypical political rhetoric.
What I'm going to suggest is that we have basically a research approach abundantly, abundantly public,
but without the small group kumbaya meetings.
And so I will lay that out if the board will agree to put that on the agenda next week.
and I mean next month I'm sorry and it's
if we get in to goal six you know I didn't do this at 930 last week I'm
gonna give an example dr. Caskey this row here and curriculum people back
there. The question I asked Commissioner Morath was what is the Texas Education
Agency's definition of constitutional equity? Is it the cut score, the lowest
cut score at approaches or the lowest cut score at meets? He didn't want to
answer the question. Very, very professionally delivered, a very
professional dodge where he said I don't really want to get into the legal part
of this and I said you know that's exactly what the question is what do you
legally consider what does the TEA legally consider constitutional equity
and he basically said the lowest cut score on meat on approaches we all know
that. If we go down the path of strategic six, go. They want local control. They want
more insulation from testing. They want rational finance. All of those tie together and we
can't fight this growing animus towards public education by taking them perfunctorily bullet
We're going to have to get down in the weeds, we're going to have to talk to very smart
people, we're going to have to produce a viable, coherent strategy, whether it's through Goal
6 directly or correlated through a legislative train.
And then we're going to have to reach out to people, not on a social level, not on a
feel good level, but we've got to reach out to them, get their experience and
their knowledge. What public education does not do and has not done
effectively for as long as I can remember, they never ever actually go
forward and prove the consequences of the state stupidity.
It's all done at a superficial level. It is all done at a political level.
school districts around the state of Texas everyone that I recognize in here
is paying a price a heavy price because we're not communicating effectively the
consequences of an anti public education mentality in Austin Texas and you know I
may have 15 months left on this board it's a pretty good way to spend the next
15 months if we can if we can try to get that going longer than I know but that's
what I wanted to say and I appreciate it.
Call your attention to item 9.2 donated items to Katy Independent School
District. Item 10 future meetings we have our board work-study meeting on
Monday January 15th 2018 which happens to be not only Martin Luther King's
birthday but my second born's 18th birthday in 2018 that's just crazy and
our regular board meeting Monday January 2nd 2018 location to be determined
possibly with no be there being no further business before the board this
The location is highly likely here. Don't get hopes up. It's that old saying, you under-promise, over-deliver.
All right?
Okay.
Just bring Bistro with you when you come.
We will.
Thank you for speaking on my behalf, Mr. Scott.
Madam President, so just as we're going, can we say Merry Christmas to our staff and enjoy your high lump sum?
Yes.
Merry Christmas.
We got that going out in a different message, but...
Sorry.
This is y'all's mic. It's open mic time evidently.
But we didn't talk about it.
Yeah, we did. We got a message going out.
But yes, we do.
It is a...
Go for it.
Did I give a secret?
No, not at all.
All right.
There being no further business for the board, this meeting is adjourned.
The time is 7.33 p.m.
Now we can start.
