The General Fund had receipts of $1,962,898.44, and disbursements of $1,526,652.89 leaving a balance of $5,690,835.34. Capital Outlay Fund had receipts of $563,020.77, and disbursements of $59,608.75, leaving a balance of $2,194,380.57. Special Education Fund had receipts of $794,761.56 and disbursements $275,562.56, leaving a balance of $1,386,526.71.

Bond Redemption Fund had receipts of $317,541.30 and disbursements of $948,522.62 leaving a balance of $261,320.10.
The December, 2011 payroll totaled $1,218,674.32, of which $650,900.32 was instructional, $294,286.69 was support services, $26,345.82 was co-curricular, $195,250.50 was Special Education, and $51,890.99 was Food Service.
Motion by Rasmussen, seconded by Ullom to approve the financial reports as presented for the month of December, 2011. Motion carried.
Administrative reports were heard. Superintendent David Pappone reported on the following:
1) In a recent "Sups On" article, discussion included the possible expansion of the ESD, inviting Harrisburg and Meade County (Sturgis) into the ESD Conference. After on-line conversations among Superintendents, no expansion to the ESD is planned for now; and neither Harrisburg nor Sturgis have accepted the offer to join the ESD Conference to play football. At the present time, the ESD will remain as is. As Harrisburg continues to grow, we do expect that they will be requesting to join the ESD in the future. But for now, no changes are anticipated for the 2012-13 school year.
2) We have had an erroneous registration to get ready for the Spring/Summer classes of Driver's Education. As discussed in a previous Board Meeting, the attorney general's opinion does not allow a charge for that any longer and the recent registration materials listed a charge. Therefore, we are preparing a retraction and an explanation that will go out the early part of this week to help explain the situation. The District will be moving forward with registration, in hopes that the legislature will allow us to continue to charge for the program; however, if they don't, it is not likely that we can continue to provide the program. So, at this time, we will move forward with registration, but will not be collecting any fees.
3) Governor Dennis Daugaard's State of the State Address is scheduled for Tuesday, January 10, 2012, at 1 p.m., which will include a major education initiative revealed during that address. Pappone encourages all to listen in to what will be proposed for the 2012-13 school year.
4) School Board Recognition Week is being celebrated this week and certificates have been provided for all our Board Members for their continued service to the community. Pappone publicly thanked each member personally and publicly for the service they are providing.
Assistant High School Principal Brad Thorson reported on the December Angel Tree project held at the Brandon Valley High School. A record breaking 131 students within the Brandon Valley School District received gifts this Christmas time through this project. Thorson thanked all involved with this worthy project.
Fred Assam Elementary Principal Susan Foster extended an invitation to the Board Members to a "Boost Up" program showcasing the all-day Kindergarten program at Fred Assam Elementary. Dates to attend this program are either January 17th or 18th, 2012.
Curriculum Director Tanya Czepull presented the proposed cycle change for the District curriculum rotation. With the adoption of the common core standards at the state level, a revision to the current rotation will help to meet these common core standards in a more timely matter. Secondly, Czepull discussed the migrant education program, which now includes four students in the Brandon Valley School District. Czepull presented this information to the School Board for information purposes at this time.
Operations Manager Todd Williams discussed temperatures in classrooms around the District. To save money, the District has set room temperatures at 68° for winter months and 78° for summer months. Williams stated that these are Federal guidelines for temperature control. Surveys of all classrooms in all buildings have been conducted, with the High School being the most challenging for heating and cooling issues because of its age and building layout. All buildings continued to be monitored and adjusted as needed.
Business Manager Paul Lundberg reviewed the Brandon Valley School District's 2012-17 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.

1. Acknowledge receipt of Brandon Valley Education Association (BVEA) request for collective bargaining.
2. Approve the following Open Enrollment: 12-165.
3. Approve request from David and Carol Galbavy for residency of a minor child per SDCL 13-28-10.
