Unknown speaker not human verified

the Texas Academic Performance Report.

Unknown speaker not human verified

Squeaky chair.

Unknown speaker not human verified

You're good.

Unknown speaker not human verified

All right.

Unknown speaker not human verified

Good evening, Dr. Hemp, President Vann, members of the board.

Unknown speaker not human verified

I'm here to present the 2016-17 annual report in a public hearing format.

Unknown speaker not human verified

The Texas Education Agency requires districts to present in a public hearing format various points of information,

Unknown speaker not human verified

including district accreditation status.

Unknown speaker not human verified

And as you can see up on the screen, our accreditation from the past year was accredited.

Unknown speaker not human verified

the Texas academic performance report data in including our special education

Unknown speaker not human verified

status where we meet our the requirement of the Texas Education Agency campus

Unknown speaker not human verified

performance objectives a report on violent or criminal incidents on

Unknown speaker not human verified

campuses and student performance in post-secondary institution information

Unknown speaker not human verified

so we'll start with our district performance this is always the fun part

Unknown speaker not human verified

when we talk about district performance in the upcoming slides we need to

Unknown speaker not human verified

discuss our performance thresholds. So for this year, and they've been changing

Unknown speaker not human verified

recently, we're going to talk about performance thresholds of approaches

Unknown speaker not human verified

grade level and the definition of that from the Texas Education Agency is that

Unknown speaker not human verified

some knowledge of course content but may be missing critical elements. The student

Unknown speaker not human verified

needs additional support in the coming year. This is considered the

Unknown speaker not human verified

lowest level of meeting standard on a state assessment is

Unknown speaker not human verified

approaches grade level. The next level is meets grade level and according to the

Unknown speaker not human verified

agency that is strong knowledge of course content the student is prepared

Unknown speaker not human verified

to progress to the next grade that's the middle level of performance and the

Unknown speaker not human verified

highest level of performance a student can achieve is masters grade level and

Unknown speaker not human verified

at that level mastery of the course knowledge and skills is shown then the

Unknown speaker not human verified

student is on track for college and career readiness so again all three are

Unknown speaker not human verified

considered at the passing range even though there is some confusion with the

Unknown speaker not human verified

term approaches grade level that does actually in according to the agency mean

Unknown speaker not human verified

a minimum level of mastery. So in 2016-17 what our STAAR scores reflect at the

Unknown speaker not human verified

approaches grade level or above again that's passing we saw increases in math

Unknown speaker not human verified

science and social studies over the previous year as you can see the black

Unknown speaker not human verified

bar is the state percentage the red bar in the middle is region 4 and the tan

Unknown speaker not human verified

hand bar on the right is KDISD. And for many years in a row that far right hand bar greatly

Unknown speaker not human verified

surpasses what our state and region four peers are performing at. At that second level of

Unknown speaker not human verified

passing, the meets grade level, again you can see our right hand tan bar is significantly

Unknown speaker not human verified

higher than both the state and the region. And we saw increases there as well over the

Unknown speaker not human verified

previous year and at the master's grade level the highest grade level at the

Unknown speaker not human verified

highest performance again we're significantly higher than our state and

Unknown speaker not human verified

region averages when we look at progress of students so students who meet or

Unknown speaker not human verified

exceed progress expectations for showing growth from one year to the next you can

Unknown speaker not human verified

see we also are higher than our state and region averages with growth in all

Unknown speaker not human verified

subjects in math over last year as well. For our attendance and post-secondary

Unknown speaker not human verified

readiness, our attendance rate is 97% and that is the same as the prior year. Our

Unknown speaker not human verified

annual dropout rates are displayed here. We have decreases in dropout rates which

Unknown speaker not human verified

is a good thing. We want decreases in dropout rates and so those numbers are

Unknown speaker not human verified

going down over 14-15. Our dropout rate data is a year behind because we have to

Unknown speaker not human verified

wait until the next year to see if students are coming back by the capture

Unknown speaker not human verified

date the class of 2016 four-year longitudinal graduation rate you can see

Unknown speaker not human verified

here we have Katie on the far right hand side outperforms our state and region

Unknown speaker not human verified

data and when we look at students graduating we actually had an increase

Unknown speaker not human verified

of 0.5% over the prior year. So our graduation rate even at 94% much higher

Unknown speaker not human verified

than the state and region is increasing as well. Our class of 2016 college ready

Unknown speaker not human verified

graduates. So that is the percent of graduates that meet or exceed that

Unknown speaker not human verified

college ready criteria on SAT or ACT and we have about 76% of our

Unknown speaker not human verified

students taking the SAT or ACT and so we have 74% in ELA achieving that

Unknown speaker not human verified

college-ready graduate threshold 71% in math and 66% in both subjects and not

Unknown speaker not human verified

only are both of those significantly higher than our state and region

Unknown speaker not human verified

averages but we also grew by 12 points over the prior year for English language

Unknown speaker not human verified

arts 10 points in math and 8 points in both subjects so we're definitely

Unknown speaker not human verified

continuing to to go up we're not satisfied with with being high for 2015

Unknown speaker not human verified

16 the advanced course dual enrollment completion so this is the percent of

Unknown speaker not human verified

students who complete and receive credit for at least one advanced course whether

Unknown speaker not human verified

it's an AP course dual credit course there's a their criteria for which

Unknown speaker not human verified

courses those are and we can see again KDISD outperforms the state in the

Unknown speaker not human verified

the region in that area as well for our AP or IB results and in KD these are AP

Unknown speaker not human verified

results our participation rates 33.4 percent of our students participating in

Unknown speaker not human verified

80.7 percent are greater than or equal to the criterion and that is exactly

Unknown speaker not human verified

what we applauded miss Lindley up here for is looking at those pieces for our

Unknown speaker not human verified

students in our eighth year on the AP honor roll. Our class of 2016 SAT and ACT

Unknown speaker not human verified

results our participation rate continues to increase and are greater than or

Unknown speaker not human verified

equal to the criterion for the state significantly is higher than our state

Unknown speaker not human verified

and regional peers. Class of 2016 average SAT scores so again our score

Unknown speaker not human verified

our students are greatly outperforming our state and regional averages for the

Unknown speaker not human verified

average scores for both subjects for ELA writing and for math our class of 2016

Unknown speaker not human verified

average ACT scores we see the same trend which is certainly a great trend to have

Unknown speaker not human verified

and our ACT scores are increasing as well our 2014-15 graduates that are in

Unknown speaker not human verified

post-secondary institutions after they graduate. We have more students

Unknown speaker not human verified

who are enrolled in an institution of higher education in Texas and we have a

Unknown speaker not human verified

greater percentage of students completing one year without remediation

Unknown speaker not human verified

over our state and our regional peers.

Unknown speaker not human verified

When we look at our district profile these are demographics so you can see a

Unknown speaker not human verified

geographic based on race ethnicity as well as program participation and our programs continue to grow in popularity

Unknown speaker not human verified

Almost all of them increased over the prior year other than at risk and that had a very very slight decrease

Unknown speaker not human verified

On the next slides we see retention rates by grade level

Unknown speaker not human verified

Average class sizes for elementary and secondary

Unknown speaker not human verified

Secondary?

Unknown speaker not human verified

Percent of staff?

Unknown speaker not human verified

Our campus performance objectives, you may remember in the fall approving the campus

Unknown speaker not human verified

performance objectives and as a reminder these were still aligned to the former goals.

Unknown speaker not human verified

We are continuing to work with our new goals and next year when I'm up here presenting

Unknown speaker not human verified

then we will be able to see the campus performance objectives aligned to our new KDISD strategic

Unknown speaker not human verified

design goals so for our violent and criminal incidents it is required that

Unknown speaker not human verified

we report level five and level four offenses and so up here on the screen

Unknown speaker not human verified

you can see our level five incidents our total student population and the

Unknown speaker not human verified

percentages there are slight changes from year to year here but lots of

Unknown speaker not human verified

positive changes from the previous year in our violent criminal incidents

Unknown speaker not human verified

incidents.

Unknown speaker not human verified

When we address our violent and criminal incidents, it's through our district improvement plan

Unknown speaker not human verified

and our campus improvement plans.

Unknown speaker not human verified

And goals include looking at safe facilities, addressing behavioral needs, safe school initiatives,

Unknown speaker not human verified

and those are all addressed by campus and in the district improvement plan.

Unknown speaker not human verified

So when we look at student performance in post-secondary institutions, this is looking

Unknown speaker not human verified

at Texas post-secondary institutions.

Unknown speaker not human verified

So when I get up here and talk about this, this is a reminder of students that go only to Texas

Unknown speaker not human verified

institutions of higher education, not outside of Texas. So our students who are enrolling in Stanford and University of Oklahoma are not included in this.

Unknown speaker not human verified

So public four-year university, our graduates who are attending four-year public, two-year public,

Unknown speaker not human verified

independent, so private colleges and universities, and then our two data anomalies not trackable and not found are

Unknown speaker not human verified

students where we have data mismatches and then our total graduates so in

Unknown speaker not human verified

summary it's always fun to report that we are higher than the state and region

Unknown speaker not human verified

in almost every single category that we discussed this evening and are

Unknown speaker not human verified

continuing to see increases in many of those areas as well we'll continue our

Unknown speaker not human verified

focus on increasing the academic achievement for students who are English

Unknown speaker not human verified

language learners as well as students who receive special education services

Unknown speaker not human verified

And that concludes the presentation portion of the public hearing.

Unknown speaker not human verified

Does the board have any questions about the report?

Unknown speaker not human verified

Thank you for the thorough information.

Unknown speaker not human verified

Okay, now we move to the public hearing on the 2006-2017 Texas Academic Performance Report.

Item 6.2

Unknown speaker not human verified

Those individuals requesting to speak regarding the 2016-2017 Texas Academic Performance Report

Unknown speaker not human verified

signed up prior to the start of this meeting. 30 minutes have been a lot of

Unknown speaker not human verified

this public hearing forum. The time allowed will be divided among equally

Unknown speaker not human verified

minutes requested to speak but no presentation may exceed three minutes.

Unknown speaker not human verified

And we had nobody sign up so this is the end of the public hearing.

Item 7

Unknown speaker not human verified

Agenda item 7 2018-19 budget update. Mr. Smith.

Unknown speaker not human verified

Well good evening Superintendent Hindt and Mr. President Vann. Each of you should have a

Unknown speaker not human verified

copy of the presentation that I'm going to go over tonight. It's a little awkward

Unknown speaker not human verified

to look behind me so I'm going to look at a paper copy as well as I try to try

Unknown speaker not human verified

to do both flip through and flip pages.

Unknown speaker not human verified

But this is this is the first official talk of the budget for the 18-19 school

Unknown speaker not human verified

year. We did of course talk with it a couple of couple of months ago with when

Unknown speaker not human verified

when PASA or population survey analysts presented their report on our enrollment projections.

Unknown speaker not human verified

We use that information as kind of the springboard or the starting point for the budget process.

Unknown speaker not human verified

And I'm going to spend the next five or eight minutes going over a little high level of

Unknown speaker not human verified

what we'd like to do throughout the rest of this school year.

Unknown speaker not human verified

So in January, the second slide that you have is where we are tonight, where we're going

Unknown speaker not human verified

going to talk about the budget and budget parameters. February, we're going to give you a

Unknown speaker not human verified

little, a very brief look of where we are at a very high level projection of where our general

Unknown speaker not human verified

fund budget looks like based on our assumptions. In March, we're going to look at the budget and

Unknown speaker not human verified

how the staffing plans will affect that budget. It's kind of the big part of, the largest part

Unknown speaker not human verified

of our budget with our new staffing plan. And the first big piece that goes in it, it starts

Unknown speaker not human verified

taking shape. In April, we'll have our representatives, our financial advisors

Unknown speaker not human verified

from First Southwest here to talk about our debt plan and our long-range debt

Unknown speaker not human verified

projections for the debt service budget, the interest in sinking budget. In May or

Unknown speaker not human verified

June, we're going to look at a closer look at all our budgeted funds, food

Unknown speaker not human verified

service, general fund, and debt service fund. And then in July, of course, we'll

Unknown speaker not human verified

take another look at that and sharpen in our pencil a little bit more. And in

Unknown speaker not human verified

in August we'll have the public hearing to approve the budget and tax rates.

Unknown speaker not human verified

Of course, our objectives for the 18 19 budget of the framework that we're

Unknown speaker not human verified

operating under is we're going to try to maintain a balanced budget. We're

Unknown speaker not human verified

going to try to maintain competitive salaries. We're going to try to maintain

Unknown speaker not human verified

our health care program. We're going to open elementary 41 or prepare from a

Unknown speaker not human verified

budget perspective to open elementary 41 and opening to do additional schools in

Unknown speaker not human verified

the 19-20 or the 2019-20 school year. We do that based on assumptions and the

Unknown speaker not human verified

assumptions that we're currently working under and we'll talk about these on my

Unknown speaker not human verified

last slide are taxable values, of course enrollment, the campus staffing plan that

Unknown speaker not human verified

drives the enrollment, is driven from enrollment, salary increases, and the tax

Unknown speaker not human verified

rates. So let's talk about the first one there on that list with our appraised

Unknown speaker not human verified

values or appraisal values. We're currently working with about a thirty

Unknown speaker not human verified

eight point five billion dollar worth of appraised values. That's a five point

Unknown speaker not human verified

nine percent increase over the prior year. Below you on that screen on the

Unknown speaker not human verified

next screen you can see a little bit a graphical look of what you see on the

Unknown speaker not human verified

prior screen and those are percentage growth so you can see that we've

Unknown speaker not human verified

averaged since the 2004-05 school year over the last 15 school years,

Unknown speaker not human verified

we've averaged 9.6% growth of our taxable values. 5.9% last year

Unknown speaker not human verified

followed by a 10.5% increase the year before. We're anticipating or using as a

Unknown speaker not human verified

starting point 5%. The fact is we just don't know what that number will be. It

Unknown speaker not human verified

It is an educated guess.

Unknown speaker not human verified

It could be higher, to 6%, 7%.

Unknown speaker not human verified

Could be lower, 3% or 4%.

Unknown speaker not human verified

Every percentage change is $4 million to the bottom line.

Unknown speaker not human verified

But we're using 5% as a starting point for the 18-19 values.

Unknown speaker not human verified

Of course, you know that the largest portion of our budget

Unknown speaker not human verified

is in salary and benefits.

Unknown speaker not human verified

And again, that'll be derived from the staffing plan

Unknown speaker not human verified

that we hope to be bringing HR hopes to be bringing you in March and it's based

Unknown speaker not human verified

off the enrollment number we're fixing to talk about and then of course salary

Unknown speaker not human verified

increases there's a little history of what we've been able to do or what you

Unknown speaker not human verified

have the board has been able to do over the last several years from a salary

Unknown speaker not human verified

increase perspective moving forward with the considerations of course in the

Unknown speaker not human verified

the importance of property values,

Unknown speaker not human verified

uh, the organic growth in those property values is slow or robust as it has been

Unknown speaker not human verified

unknown impacts that we still are having from from the flood affected properties.

Unknown speaker not human verified

Of course, we have a reappraisal happening for the values that we're

Unknown speaker not human verified

using for the budget that we're already operating in. And then what impact, if

Unknown speaker not human verified

any, will they have in our values in the 18 19 budget? Those are still yet to be

Unknown speaker not human verified

be known. I will be attending a meeting tomorrow where I hope to gain a little

Unknown speaker not human verified

bit better perspective on that. Um, but probably won't until we know those

Unknown speaker not human verified

values and those won't be until April the 30th is when we'll hear the

Unknown speaker not human verified

estimates from the three appraisal districts. Um,

Unknown speaker not human verified

property value impact. Of course, you've seen the state funding formulas and the

Unknown speaker not human verified

rotten apples that I talk about in the funding cliff. When you have a in this

Unknown speaker not human verified

last year's case we had a 5.9% increase in our values. Our cliff's not as high. If

Unknown speaker not human verified

it were a 10% increase in values that we had last year it would be higher cliff.

Unknown speaker not human verified

But we still have the funding cliff and those funding formulas and rotten apples

Unknown speaker not human verified

to deal with. Our enrollment growth and special population growth obviously

Unknown speaker not human verified

continues to be something we focus on and are looking at daily. And our

Unknown speaker not human verified

state funding formulas we don't expect to change this year. There's legislation

Unknown speaker not human verified

if not in session but the Commission on School Finance begins tomorrow. It kicks

Unknown speaker not human verified

off their first meeting. Official meeting is tomorrow in Austin. Of course there's

Unknown speaker not human verified

a little high level snapshot of what our tax rates have looked like and this

Unknown speaker not human verified

board has been able to maintain the same tax rate for the last four years, three

Unknown speaker not human verified

three years prior to that it was one penny higher and then the board was able

Unknown speaker not human verified

to drop that tax rate as you know by one cent in the 15-16 school year so from

Unknown speaker not human verified

this budget perspective going back to that slide the starting point we're

Unknown speaker not human verified

looking at five percent that would be it would be from a thirty eight point five

Unknown speaker not human verified

billion dollar in value to forty point four billion our enrollment we're

Unknown speaker not human verified

currently looking at a 2.9% increase from 77,233 budgeted enrollment to

Unknown speaker not human verified

79,481. Of course the campus staffing and growth will be off of

Unknown speaker not human verified

that budget, off of that enrollment projection. Salary increases to be

Unknown speaker not human verified

determined and then the tax rates going to go about building this budget at the

Unknown speaker not human verified

same tax rate we're currently under and the same tax structure that we're

Unknown speaker not human verified

currently under. The last slide and I'll just I'm not going to go into all the

Unknown speaker not human verified

the details of that, but that gives you an idea of sort of the the milestones

Unknown speaker not human verified

that administration will be working towards as we develop and take the next

Unknown speaker not human verified

steps towards developing what we hope to be a successful budget journey this

Unknown speaker not human verified

year. And with that, I'll be glad to answer any questions, but I appreciate

Unknown speaker not human verified

your time very much.

Charles Griffin not human verified

I would like to comment again, Chris, thank you for presenting the

Charles Griffin not human verified

information. If you guys remember, this is kind of a monthly process that we start

Charles Griffin not human verified

working through and we start bringing additional data to you, staffing ratios,

Charles Griffin not human verified

what the potential is for a salary increase with our staff, etc. So once a

Charles Griffin not human verified

month you see those dates here, possibly twice a month, we'll be bringing

Charles Griffin not human verified

information to you as we work towards adopting our 18-19 budget.

Unknown speaker not human verified

Any questions?

Charles Griffin not human verified
