The American democratic experiment demands an effective system of public education to strengthen and advance the American ideal and to promote the “common good.” With courage, boldness, and urgency, the LISD recognizes and accepts its responsibility to insure that today’s education will meet tomorrow’s challenges. Each student is the reason the LISD exists. The dignity and well-being of each student is our impassioned dream. Through informed citizenship, our

students will build a better tomorrow. How well a student learns is ALWAYS more important than when… or how… or where. Educational applications of emerging technologies are readily accessible to students and staff. Research and best practices in teaching/learning/assessment are eagerly reflected in the daily performance

of each staff. LISD staff are involved in their communities through humanitarianism and volunteering, demonstrating

concern for our neighbors. The LISD courageously pursues innovation and excellence and willingly risks the possibility of criticism

and failure. Human relationships, inside and outside the LISD, reflect trust, openness, risk-taking, respect, integrity,

and collaboration. The public’s trust is earned EACH day through truthfulness, competence, and accountability. As a student-centered learning organization, the LISD continually adopts new learnings and anticipates

future conditions. The LISD earns the confidence of its local districts as it leads and serves. Leadership guides with:

empowerment and excellence, ideas, not control, relationships, not power, integrity, not convenience,and decisiveness, fairness, listening, sharing.

The mission of the Lenawee Intermediate School District (LISD) is to prepare people to

Staff of the Month Chris Dotson, Assistant Principal, presented the February 2017 Staff of the

Month Award to Bradley Schoonover, Teacher Assistant for the LISD. As a Teacher Assistant, Bradley demonstrated “above and beyond” work performance while the teacher for the classroom (where Bradley is the Teacher Assistant) was off on eight weeks of medical leave. During the leave, Bradley provided quality instruction and daily operations continued to take place. He provided instruction and supervision to the Machining and Computer Aided Manufacturing class in the lab and classroom without having any issues with student discipline. He coordinated the volunteers helping with the class and set expectations with substitutes to ensure they were helpful in the lab. He maintained the grade book and completed necessary daily paperwork. Bradley worked with a machine manufacturer to obtain a part to repair the belt and disc sander. He organized and facilitated the local Skills USA machining competition and determined which students qualified for the regional competition. Bradley registered the students for the Region 1 Skills USA competition and registered students for the annual reverse job fair.

ACKNOWLEDGING STUDENT SUCCESS


Special Education & Strategic Initiatives: Special Education Director Jody Howard’s Reports

The annual special education student count data from the fall 2016 student count is now available. The data includes the number of students who qualify for special education and receive special education services. The unaudited fall student count indicates an increase in the number of students identified as special education eligible from the 2016 fall count (2,374 students in 2016 vs. 2,303 students in 2015) During the next month, the LISD special education regional supervisors will spend time analyzing the student count data in order to better assist and support local districts with their delivery of special education programs and services.

SPECIAL ED. & STRATEGIC INITIATIVES

Instruction & General Services: Assistant Superintendent Kyle Griffith’s Reports

During the Fall 2016 semester, 67 students were dual enrolled in classes at Jackson College, Baker College, Washtenaw College, Michigan State University, and the Academy of Manufacturing Careers. This includes concurrent college classes that are integrated into Computer Programming, Nursing Preparation, and Welding Technology.

The State Board of Education recently released 61c(1) funds to each Career Education Planning District (CEPD). This one-time grant is to be used for the purchase of supply and equipment items in state-approved CTE programs or new and emerging CTE programs that are supporting economic development. The allocation of funds to the LISD will be in the amount of $56,603. The plan for these funds is to purchase two or three new manual milling machines for the Machining and CAM lab (which is a top priority in our economic development region). At this time, there are existing machines that are becoming difficult to find parts for and continually need repair. This purchase has been reviewed by the Superintendent’s CTE subcommittee. Moved by Dillon, supported by Vogel, that the LISD Board of

Education authorize the Superintendent to develop specifications and seek bids for new manual milling machines for the Machining & Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) program. Yes: 4, No: 0; motion carried.

The LISD TECH Center is currently on a trimester grading schedule for the 2016-2017 school year as per a three-year agreement with local districts based on the number of schools on trimesters and percentage of attendance. The 2016-2017 is the end of this agreement. A report was presented to the Superintendents’ CTE subcommittee which indicated that the percentage of schools on semesters, as well as their percentage of attendance, is higher than those schools on trimesters. Therefore, effective with the 2017-2018 school year, the LISD TECH Center will switch to semesters. This change will remain in effect for three years and reevaluated at that time. A review would take place for the 2020-2021 school year.

The Chemistry Teachers Network was developed through the collaboration of Lenawee ISD, Anderson Development Company, and some teacher leaders within the county. On December 15, 2016, chemistry teachers from nine different districts across the county came together at Anderson Development Company. Michelle Vanhala from Tecumseh Public Schools facilitated the meeting. Mark Kramer from Anderson Development Company discussed chemistry from an industry perspective and spoke about the importance of the

INSTRUCTION & GENERAL SERVICES


connection between schools and local businesses. Teachers participated in a round table discussion, each one providing valuable insight to the challenges and successes of teaching chemistry. The teachers brainstormed a list of ideas that they would like to see implemented. A google survey was sent out to prioritize these ideas for future meetings. The items that stood out strongly included developing lessons that are engaging and aligned with Michigan’s new science standards as well as to real world work experiences. Work will also be done to coordinate resources and businesses across the county. A Google site was developed to house the materials and to promote collaboration among all involved. A second meeting was held on January 9, 2017, and teachers began work on the personal professional learning plan that they had narrowed down through the survey. Lesson topics have been created and a Google map is in place with local businesses. This work is led by the teachers with support from local businesses and the LISD. Four additional meetings are scheduled throughout the remainder of the 2017 school year.

Office of the Superintendent: Superintendent Mark Haag’s Reports

Overall taxable value for Lenawee County properties is expected to increase by approximately 1% next year per information shared by the Lenawee County Equalization Office. Michigan’s constitution requires an inflation rate calculation be used for property tax purposes; it uses the Federal Consumer Price Index to set the rate. For property tax assessments that will be approved in late spring, the official inflation factor will be .9% (1.009). This will impact any property that is increasing in value or where there is a difference between taxable value and state equalized value (SEV). The 2017 Capped Value Formula is as follows: 2017 CAPPED VALUE = (2016 Taxable Value-LOSSES) X 1.009 + ADDITIONS. For example: 2016 taxable value of $100,000 x 1.009 = $100,900 = Tentative 2017 taxable value. The inflation rate multiplier of 1.009 is also used in the calculation of the 2017 “Headlee” Millage Reduction Fraction required by Michigan Compiled Law (MCL) 211.34d. The formula for calculating the 2017 “Headlee” Millage Reduction Fraction (MRF) is as follows: 2017 MRF= (2016 Taxable Value-LOSSES) X 1.009 / 2017 Taxable Value-ADDITIONS.

o The intermediate school district’s boundaries vary slightly from county boundary lines but for planning purposes, LISD’s FY2017-2018 budget anticipates projecting a 1% increase in taxable value. Declines in taxable value in recent years have significantly affected the district’s revenue.

o The January Consensus Revenue Estimating Conference (CREC) was held January 12, 2017, in Lansing. Updates on revenue estimates for FY2017-2018 were the focus of the meeting, giving us a glimpse of Michigan’s economic outlook based on where state revenues are today. Generally, this is the first piece of the puzzle in beginning projections for next year’s (FY 2017-2018) budget cycle. The full implications won’t be known for some time, but it has been confirmed that the overall revenue estimates reported during the May 2016 CREC remained on track in January 2017. The May 2016 State Aid Fund (SAF) estimates for FY2016-2017 were increased by $54.6 million, totaling a $338.3 million increase over prior year revenues. FY2017-2018 estimates were increased $22.3 million, totaling $326.1 million over FY2016-2017, and FY2018-19 is slated to increase $348.4 million above

OFFICE OF THE SUPT


the FY2017-2018 level. The increases year over year represent growth at 2.8%, 2.6%, and 2.7% for the three fiscal years respectively. The Governor’s proposed budget plans, scheduled to be released February 8, will provide a better indication of how he and his team are planning to deal with these issues, and how this might affect the SAF and local districts.

o Additional information on revenue and expense budget assumptions for the upcoming year will be shared with the LISD Board during our preliminary budget meeting with local district superintendents and board representatives on February 16, 2017. This meeting will provide another opportunity for local district input prior to the development of the LISD budget for the upcoming fiscal year.

At the request of local district Superintendents and after careful consideration of various cash flow alternatives, revisions to LISD’s Special Education payout schedule were implemented six years ago:

o Funds are released earlier. The first payment was moved from the end of December to early December, immediately following LISD’s first budget revision approval.

o The number of payments were consolidated from five to four; two separate payments previously made at the end of the months of January and March were combined and are now paid in January.

o The third installment is paid after the final budget revision is approved by the LISD Board in late June.

Per local districts’ request, LISD continues to withhold 15% of the local district reimbursement amount for the current year and add it to the December payment of the following year after fiscal year audits for all districts are finalized.

o The first special education reimbursement payment of $1,025,100 for FY2016-2017 made in December 2016 represents 17% (20% of the 85%) of the budgeted local district reimbursement total. The remaining $1,078,000 balance from FY2015-2016 was also included with the December 2016 disbursements to local districts to settle the prior year total.

o LISD’s second FY2016-2017 payment in the amount of $3,587,000 was disbursed in late January. This payout represents 70% of the 85% of total budgeted funds available for FY2016-2017. The third installment (10% of the 85%) is scheduled for distribution following LISD’s final budget revision approval by the Board of Education in late June. As you may recall, the 2016-2017 First Budget Revision Act 18 total payout amount is $6,030,000, plus $20,000 for federal Medicaid Outreach and $195,000 for local Medicaid School Based Health Service payments. The total projected special education payments to local districts in FY2016-2017 is $6,245,000. To accomplish this, $823,000 from the line item allocation set aside in previous years to stabilize future local district reimbursement has been released.

o Calculations for individual districts are based on a weighted average, where 90% of the disbursement is based on their percentage of the total special education head count within LISD’s boundaries. The remaining 10% is based on head count numbers in individual districts for visually impaired, physically impaired, and ASD high-cost special education categories. This formula was approved by Lenawee County


Superintendents in May 2012. Under the previous formula, reimbursement calculations were based on total special education costs incurred by local districts.

The LISD Board of Education approved a request from the Lenawee/Monroe Technology Consortium in October 2015 to seek bids for a time tracking system. After an extensive bidding and evaluation process, the recommendation for an interface to help automate the collection and processing of hourly and multi-position employee payroll data has been finalized. TimeClockPlus was chosen as the preferred vendor for support for our member districts. TimeClockPlus was ranked highest in both the initial and second round evaluations. Costs to LISD as the fiscal agent for the Consortium will be neutral. Each district will buy in at the tiered rate of the combined districts desiring to participate. Moved by Pray, supported by Vogel, that the LISD Board of Education

approve the Lenawee/Monroe Technology Consortium’s recommended selection of TimeClockPlus as the preferred vendor for a timekeeping interface. Yes: 4, No: 0; motion carried.

As part of an ongoing asphalt maintenance program, the district’s parking lots and drives are inspected annually to evaluate their condition. In general, asphalt maintenance consists of crack fill, seal coating & restriping and is performed every other year. While some engineers question the value of sealcoating, crack filling is extremely important in extending the life of the asphalt. The cracks are filled with a rubberized material, thus preventing surface water from damaging the sub-base. Restriping is also an important safety practice, as visible and clearly marked areas keep important and emergency areas open for access. In following the LISD’s current asphalt maintenance schedule, the district’s parking lots and drives are scheduled for maintenance during summer 2017. Historically, early bidding of these items can result in more favorable pricing from contractors as they begin to schedule their projects for the summer. Moved by Dillon, supported by Vogel, that the LISD Board of

Education authorize the Superintendent to develop specifications and seek bids for crack fill, seal coating, and restriping of district parking lots and drives to be completed summer 2017. Yes: 4, No: 0; motion carried.

Reported at the January 2017 Board meeting, LISD staff received three bids for the assessment and design work related to the LISD TECH Center East building and the Stubnitz Center HVAC improvement project. The Board accepted the low bid from Mende Engineering Solutions, LLC, of Addison, Michigan, with a total bid price of $36,000. This price includes an assessment of existing HVAC systems in the LISD TECH Center East building and the Stubnitz Center, and the design and administrative work associated with the approved systems. Mende Engineering has begun the assessment work at both locations and plan to provide a system recommendation sometime in early February. LISD staff plan to bring a formal request to procure bids for this project at the March 2017 Board meeting.

Each year, the LISD collects compensation data from all Lenawee County

public schools. The data collected includes position titles, current pay, benefits (insurance, leave time, etc.), and other information related to employee compensation. This compensation data will be used, in part, to assist the LISD in making staff compensation recommendations to the Board of Education for the upcoming 2017-2018 work year. The results of the survey are also shared with each public school district to use when considering compensation changes for their own district staff. In addition to collecting local school district compensation data, the LISD collects compensation information for their own use from other Lenawee County non-profit organizations for hourly staff comparison. Typically, at least the following are surveyed: ProMedica, Lenawee County, and City of Adrian. Additional salary data of similarly titled positions in other ISD’s are also collected for LISD use. Some of those surveyed are: Lapeer, Allegan, Bay Arenac, Ottawa, Jackson, and Traverse Bay.

As part of the budgeting process for the next fiscal year, the LISD Board of Education has traditionally formed a Board Ad Hoc Committee for the purpose of reviewing non-union staff compensation. The Board Ad Hoc Committees formed in the past have evaluated both wages and fringe benefits to arrive at recommendations for the next work year for LISD staff. After reviewing current LISD salaries & fringe benefits and comparison data of other organizations, the Ad Hoc Committee would then make recommendations to the full Board of Education at a future meeting, prior to the beginning of the next fiscal year.

o Once the Board Ad Hoc Committee is established, a meeting will be scheduled to review the information described above. This year, the Ad Hoc Committee will be asked to review staff wages/salaries and fringe benefits in an effort to develop recommendations for the 2017-2018 year for the following non-union positions: Hourly, Salaried, LISD TECH Center Teacher/Learning Assistants, LISD TECH Center Teachers.

o In past years, the Ad Hoc Committee retained one member from the prior year for continuity and familiarity reasons, and selected one new member. If this philosophy remains a consideration, last year, the Ad Hoc Committee was comprised of Robert Vogel and Richard Germond.

o The Board is therefore being asked to form a new Board Ad Hoc Committee for the purpose of reviewing compensation information and making recommendations to the LISD Board in setting compensation for non-union staff for the 2017-2018 fiscal year.

The recommended action was tabled in order to allow the Superintendent to talk to Board President Richard Germond about the possibility of scheduling a special board meeting to review compensation information.

Each year the LISD Staff Recognition Awards Program honors the amazing accomplishments of our staff through various award categories. These awards are given to staff to recognize and encourage those who have displayed exemplary performance and to cultivate excellence in the LISD. For many years, the Staff Recognition Awards were conducted at the LISD Porter Center. Several years ago, the venue changed to holding the event at local district sites in order to provide a different atmosphere of celebration for staff, family members, and community members. We are excited to announce that the 33rd annual LISD Staff Recognition Awards Program will be held on June 2, 2017, from 1:00–3:00 p.m. at Madison Schools Performing Arts Center. A dessert social will follow the Staff Recognition Awards Program.

o Members of the LISD Board of Education are invited to attend, so please mark your calendars as we hope to have you join us for this special event. Please notify Janine Decker at 517-265-1627 if you plan to attend.
