Brandon Valley
The regular meeting of the Brandon Valley Board of Education, Brandon, SD was held at 6:30 p.m. on the 26th of January, 2010 at the Brandon Valley Middle School Media Center with the following members present: Jean Bender, Gregg Ode, Renee Ullom and Todd Egge. Absent: Jay Rasmussen. Also present were Superintendent David Pappone, Business Manager Paul J. Lundberg, Activities Director Randy Marso, Middle School Principal Dan Pansch, Curriculum Director Tanya Czepull, and Operations Manager Todd Williams.
President Jean Bender called the regular meeting to order and opened with the Pledge of Allegiance.
Motion by Ullom, seconded by Ode to approve the agenda as revised. Motion carried.
Superintendent David Pappone reported that the Minnehaha Department of Health and Emergency Management is scheduling an H1N1 vaccination clinic in Brandon to be held at the Brandon Fire Hall on Thursday, February 4th from 2 – 6 p.m. This is open to the public and the vaccination is free. Lastly Pappone reviewed the “Liberty Center News.” The board approved space for this program earlier this school year. The program provides after school care for children with disabilities. Pappone shared a current article that featured a BV student in the program and it describes how appreciative the family is to have this available locally.
Business Manager Paul J. Lundberg recognized two recent donations received by the Brandon Valley School District. Two community organizations donated funds to be used in student’s food service accounts as follows: the Brandon Contractor’s Association ($500), and the Brandon Optimist Club (approximately $750). Lundberg thanked these two organizations for their generous donations.
The following Board Policies were given a second and final reading by the Board of Education:
KG-ER Facility Use Policy
KG-ERE Facility User Agreement
KG-ERE (Attachment) Certificate of Liability Insurance Sample
Motion by Egge, seconded by Ode to approve these policies as presented. Motion carried.
Business Manager Paul Lundberg reviewed the Brandon Valley School District’s 2010-15 Five Year Plan. This plan can be viewed in its entirety through the District web-site at www.brandonvalleyschools.com on the Business Office tab.
Activities Director Randy Marso addressed the letter that the Board of Education received from Lori Murray regarding the addition of Gymnastics as a school sponsored sport. Mr. Marso presented the history of gymnastics at Brandon Valley as well as the AA schools that currently offer gymnastics. Marso also presented a cost breakdown of having a gymnastics program as well as a cost comparison of gymnastics versus other girls’ sports offered at Brandon Valley. It is Mr. Marso’s recommendation that due to the low number of athletes (perhaps only 6 in the 2010-11 school year) that would be served in a gymnastics program, and the relative high cost per athlete, that the Brandon Valley School District not add gymnastics at this time. He would encourage us all to look forward to soccer as a viable option to better use taxpayer money for student-athlete participation. Public input will be taken on this issue at the next School Board meeting on February 8, 2010.
The Board of Education reviewed and discussed the proposed 2011-12 Brandon Valley School District Calendar. The start day for the 2011 school year is scheduled for August 17, 2011. This earlier date was selected for various reasons, one being to complete the first semester before winter break. Another factor to the earlier start is our partnership with the Sioux Falls Career Academy and because we will have students attend that Academy, our calendar needs to coincide more closely with Sioux Falls and the Career Academy. Lastly, a minor consideration is that many Middle Schools that we compete with do start earlier and since MS practices start when school starts, we generally begin our seasons at least one week behind in practices once competitions begin.
The earlier conference schedule was also discussed. According to Pappone, it seems that most parents and teachers believe that having conferences in early October is a positive move to catch any problems earlier in the quarter/semester.
Lastly, snow days were discussed. Two days are built into the 2011-12 school year and Mrs. Bender asked where we are for this school year in snow days used and added days to the calendar. Pappone explained that we have taken 5 snow days to date and in our current calendar we have allowed for only one built in snow day. Two days had originally been built into this year’s calendar, however, two instructional days were added to this calendar year and one snow day was used to absorb one of those additional days. In hind-sight, that doesn’t seem to be a good solution, however Pappone stated that at the time that made sense. It is our practice to add on the days to be made up at the end of the school year. Right now the last day of school, without any additional missed days, would be June 1st. According to current state law, after 10 missed days, a school district could choose to forgive days. There is an effort in the Legislature right now to change that law and to say that as long as a school district met the minimum number of hours in the school year, then they would not have to make up any days beyond those hours. It is Pappone’s philosophy that we make an informal contract with our community and our parents. When we ask them for their taxes, in return, we are going to give the students a full year of education. Pappone’s personal view is that if we were to forgive those days, we would be violating that informal contract with our community and with our families. Unless and until it got to be an extreme number of days, Pappone supports the idea that we would tack the days on to the end of the school year. There are other options possible; we could make up a day or two on a Saturday, or use other vacation or in-service days that are scheduled. That has not been our tradition; however, if the situation starts to become unmanageable any other way, we could look at one of those solutions.
Bender also reviewed the October 10th and 14th days proposed to be off in the 2011-12 school year, making two three-day weekends in a row. Pappone stated that this is to accommodate a compensatory day after parent-teacher conferences, and to allow staff to attend a Regional Middle School conference held in Sioux Falls scheduled during that time frame.
Gregg Ode asked about graduating seniors and the schedule at the end of the year for make up snow days. He inquired if they would need to come back after graduation to make up days. Pappone reported that graduation remains on May 30, 2010 and seniors are exempt from having to make up extra days.
Motion by Egge, seconded by Ode to approve the 2011-12 school calendar as proposed. Motion carried.
Motion by Ullom, seconded by Ode to approve the following general business items:
1. Approve Public School Exemption #10-82.
2. Approve Community Partnership for Suicide Prevention Memorandum of Understanding among The South Dakota Department of Human Services, Division of Mental Health, The HELP!Line Center, and the Brandon Valley School District to promote proactive steps that can help prevent teen suicides.
3. Approve open enrollment #10-168.
Motion carried.
Motion by Egge, seconded by Ode to approve the following personnel items:
1. Resignation from Amanda Painter, Brandon Valley High School Special Education Educational Assistant, effective January 15, 2010.
2. Recommendation to approve Priscilla Harkin as a substitute for the 2009-10 school year.
3. Recommendation to approve Brian Mielke as a substitute Bus Driver.
4. Approve resignation/retirement of Robert Goheen, Brandon Valley High School/Valley Springs Elementary Band instructor, effective at the end of the 2009-10 school year.
Motion carried.
Communications received by the Board of Education were reviewed. They included the following item:
1. Thank you from Jason & Erin Bisbee for the plant sent for the birth of their son, Nolan.
Board reports were heard. Transportation – Egge reported that we have been maintaining a close relationship with our townships to continue safe travel on our bus routes. Pappone added that he has asked Transportation Director Leslie Erikson to create township maps of the routes that the Brandon Valley School District does run and to provide those maps to the townships with a request to give priority to those routes on school days when we do have school. We hope that they are able to accommodate our requests by knowing specifically what routes we are using.
Student Activities, Curriculum & Technology – Ode reported that a meeting was held last week reviewing and discussing the Brandon Valley School District’s three-year technology plan.
City Affairs & Legislation – Renee Ullom reported that we will continue to watch Legislative issues concerning education topics. Superintendent Pappone and Business Manager Lundberg will be traveling to Pierre on Wednesday, January 27, 2010, with the Chamber of Commerce to attend Brandon Day at the Legislature.
Child Nutrition & Wellness – Ullom reported that plans for the Health Fair are underway.
Travel Reports were reviewed.
Motion by Ode, seconded by Ullom to adjourn the meeting at 7:41 p.m. Motion carried.

Brandon Valley
The regular meeting of the Brandon Valley Board of Education, Brandon, SD was held at 6:30 p.m. on the 26th of January, 2010 at the Brandon Valley Middle School Media Center with the following members present: Jean Bender, Gregg Ode, Renee Ullom and Todd Egge. Absent: Jay Rasmussen. Also present were Superintendent David Pappone, Business Manager Paul J. Lundberg, Activities Director Randy Marso, Middle School Principal Dan Pansch, Curriculum Director Tanya Czepull, and Operations Manager Todd Williams.
President Jean Bender called the regular meeting to order and opened with the Pledge of Allegiance.
Motion by Ullom, seconded by Ode to approve the agenda as revised. Motion carried.
Superintendent David Pappone reported that the Minnehaha Department of Health and Emergency Management is scheduling an H1N1 vaccination clinic in Brandon to be held at the Brandon Fire Hall on Thursday, February 4th from 2 – 6 p.m. This is open to the public and the vaccination is free. Lastly Pappone reviewed the “Liberty Center News.” The board approved space for this program earlier this school year. The program provides after school care for children with disabilities. Pappone shared a current article that featured a BV student in the program and it describes how appreciative the family is to have this available locally.
Business Manager Paul J. Lundberg recognized two recent donations received by the Brandon Valley School District. Two community organizations donated funds to be used in student’s food service accounts as follows: the Brandon Contractor’s Association ($500), and the Brandon Optimist Club (approximately $750). Lundberg thanked these two organizations for their generous donations.
The following Board Policies were given a second and final reading by the Board of Education:
KG-ER Facility Use Policy
KG-ERE Facility User Agreement
KG-ERE (Attachment) Certificate of Liability Insurance Sample
Motion by Egge, seconded by Ode to approve these policies as presented. Motion carried.
Business Manager Paul Lundberg reviewed the Brandon Valley School District’s 2010-15 Five Year Plan. This plan can be viewed in its entirety through the District web-site at www.brandonvalleyschools.com on the Business Office tab.
Activities Director Randy Marso addressed the letter that the Board of Education received from Lori Murray regarding the addition of Gymnastics as a school sponsored sport. Mr. Marso presented the history of gymnastics at Brandon Valley as well as the AA schools that currently offer gymnastics. Marso also presented a cost breakdown of having a gymnastics program as well as a cost comparison of gymnastics versus other girls’ sports offered at Brandon Valley. It is Mr. Marso’s recommendation that due to the low number of athletes (perhaps only 6 in the 2010-11 school year) that would be served in a gymnastics program, and the relative high cost per athlete, that the Brandon Valley School District not add gymnastics at this time. He would encourage us all to look forward to soccer as a viable option to better use taxpayer money for student-athlete participation. Public input will be taken on this issue at the next School Board meeting on February 8, 2010.
The Board of Education reviewed and discussed the proposed 2011-12 Brandon Valley School District Calendar. The start day for the 2011 school year is scheduled for August 17, 2011. This earlier date was selected for various reasons, one being to complete the first semester before winter break. Another factor to the earlier start is our partnership with the Sioux Falls Career Academy and because we will have students attend that Academy, our calendar needs to coincide more closely with Sioux Falls and the Career Academy. Lastly, a minor consideration is that many Middle Schools that we compete with do start earlier and since MS practices start when school starts, we generally begin our seasons at least one week behind in practices once competitions begin.
The earlier conference schedule was also discussed. According to Pappone, it seems that most parents and teachers believe that having conferences in early October is a positive move to catch any problems earlier in the quarter/semester.
Lastly, snow days were discussed. Two days are built into the 2011-12 school year and Mrs. Bender asked where we are for this school year in snow days used and added days to the calendar. Pappone explained that we have taken 5 snow days to date and in our current calendar we have allowed for only one built in snow day. Two days had originally been built into this year’s calendar, however, two instructional days were added to this calendar year and one snow day was used to absorb one of those additional days. In hind-sight, that doesn’t seem to be a good solution, however Pappone stated that at the time that made sense. It is our practice to add on the days to be made up at the end of the school year. Right now the last day of school, without any additional missed days, would be June 1st. According to current state law, after 10 missed days, a school district could choose to forgive days. There is an effort in the Legislature right now to change that law and to say that as long as a school district met the minimum number of hours in the school year, then they would not have to make up any days beyond those hours. It is Pappone’s philosophy that we make an informal contract with our community and our parents. When we ask them for their taxes, in return, we are going to give the students a full year of education. Pappone’s personal view is that if we were to forgive those days, we would be violating that informal contract with our community and with our families. Unless and until it got to be an extreme number of days, Pappone supports the idea that we would tack the days on to the end of the school year. There are other options possible; we could make up a day or two on a Saturday, or use other vacation or in-service days that are scheduled. That has not been our tradition; however, if the situation starts to become unmanageable any other way, we could look at one of those solutions.
Bender also reviewed the October 10th and 14th days proposed to be off in the 2011-12 school year, making two three-day weekends in a row. Pappone stated that this is to accommodate a compensatory day after parent-teacher conferences, and to allow staff to attend a Regional Middle School conference held in Sioux Falls scheduled during that time frame.
Gregg Ode asked about graduating seniors and the schedule at the end of the year for make up snow days. He inquired if they would need to come back after graduation to make up days. Pappone reported that graduation remains on May 30, 2010 and seniors are exempt from having to make up extra days.
Motion by Egge, seconded by Ode to approve the 2011-12 school calendar as proposed. Motion carried.
Motion by Ullom, seconded by Ode to approve the following general business items:
1. Approve Public School Exemption #10-82.
2. Approve Community Partnership for Suicide Prevention Memorandum of Understanding among The South Dakota Department of Human Services, Division of Mental Health, The HELP!Line Center, and the Brandon Valley School District to promote proactive steps that can help prevent teen suicides.
3. Approve open enrollment #10-168.
Motion carried.
Motion by Egge, seconded by Ode to approve the following personnel items:
1. Resignation from Amanda Painter, Brandon Valley High School Special Education Educational Assistant, effective January 15, 2010.
2. Recommendation to approve Priscilla Harkin as a substitute for the 2009-10 school year.
3. Recommendation to approve Brian Mielke as a substitute Bus Driver.
4. Approve resignation/retirement of Robert Goheen, Brandon Valley High School/Valley Springs Elementary Band instructor, effective at the end of the 2009-10 school year.
Motion carried.
Communications received by the Board of Education were reviewed. They included the following item:
1. Thank you from Jason & Erin Bisbee for the plant sent for the birth of their son, Nolan.
Board reports were heard. Transportation – Egge reported that we have been maintaining a close relationship with our townships to continue safe travel on our bus routes. Pappone added that he has asked Transportation Director Leslie Erikson to create township maps of the routes that the Brandon Valley School District does run and to provide those maps to the townships with a request to give priority to those routes on school days when we do have school. We hope that they are able to accommodate our requests by knowing specifically what routes we are using.
Student Activities, Curriculum & Technology – Ode reported that a meeting was held last week reviewing and discussing the Brandon Valley School District’s three-year technology plan.
City Affairs & Legislation – Renee Ullom reported that we will continue to watch Legislative issues concerning education topics. Superintendent Pappone and Business Manager Lundberg will be traveling to Pierre on Wednesday, January 27, 2010, with the Chamber of Commerce to attend Brandon Day at the Legislature.
Child Nutrition & Wellness – Ullom reported that plans for the Health Fair are underway.
Travel Reports were reviewed.
Motion by Ode, seconded by Ullom to adjourn the meeting at 7:41 p.m. Motion carried.
