On a motion by Mrs. Huffman, seconded by Mrs. Caudill and duly carried, the agenda was approved as presented.
 
Chairman Mr. Randall "Rudy" Holbrook recognized Superintendent Mr. Mark Byrd for the Superintendent's Welcome and Pledge of Allegiance. Mr. Byrd made the following statement, "As we progress through this pandemic, I hear lots of people referencing the new normal, or even saying that things will never return to normal. Most people in our office know I am a Duke Basketball fan, and this morning when Bill Sebastian from our technology department walked by me and said, 'Did you enjoy the game Saturday night?' with a smile on his face, I couldn't help but think about how normal that felt. Even though the game didn’t go my way, I am glad that we could have a weekend where hopefully the biggest argument most of us heard was Duke or Carolina. This was just another reminder to me that people and the way we treat each other will be what determines what a 'new normal' looks like. And, to all of you Tar Heel fans, I wish you the best of luck tonight even though your team ruined my Saturday evening."
 
"I share each year, in the month of April, that this is one of my favorite months of the year. Trout season opened this weekend, Final 4 basketball was a reason for excitement before Saturday night, my favorite sporting event, The Masters, is this week, and the weather is getting warmer. We have Easter just a few weeks away, and if you want to make an educator smile, mention that Spring Break is 8 school days away. Tomorrow night, we will name our teacher and principal of the year, Dr. Cotton reminded us this morning that April is School Library Month, and at the end of the month, we will celebrate Administrative Professional’s Day. This week is also National Assistant Principal's Week."
 
"I even get excited about knowing that I get to go home from work and get on a lawnmower now, and despite allergies and pollen, I don’t see how anyone could be in a bad mood with everything starting to bloom or turn green. We need to carry this enthusiasm for spring into everything we do and also share it with others. We need to use this time to start to focus more on what is right and less on what is wrong with the world around us. There are so many negatives in our world right now, and many people are craving something positive. We are all in positions where we can help them find it."
 
"So, throughout the month of April, I challenge each of us to make sure that we make an effort daily to make the 'new normal' better than ever before for someone other than ourselves. And, when our day gets stressful, step outside and look at the trees, the grass, or just listen to a bird sing, and I think things will start to feel better. We can determine the new normal, and we should all work to make it better for everyone around us! I assure you that the impact of our efforts will be greater than we ever imagine."

Superintendent Mr. Mark Byrd recognized Dr. Westley Wood, Assistant Superintendent, to announce the NC Technology Student Association’s Regional Conference Winners. Members of the West Wilkes High School’s Technology Student Association (TSA) competed at the North Carolina Technology Student Association’s Western Regional Conference held at Appalachian State University on February 18th. This year’s design problem was to create an animatronic exhibit for the entrance of a children’s hospital waiting room. Animatronics refers to a robotic device that emulates a human or an animal, or brings an inanimate object "to life." Applying leadership and 21st century skills, teams produced an animatronics device complete with an appropriate display. The team came up with the concepts, robotic framework, the robotics’ programming, and the construction of the exhibit. The team placed 2nd which earned them the opportunity to compete at the NCTSA State Conference.
 
Congratulations to these students and their teacher:  Mrs. Thelma Kastl, Sydney Austin, Breana Barlow, Cody Brown, Colin Hayes, Matthew Lebatard, and Seth Marley.

Focus on Curriculum was presented by Dr. Joe Bullis, Executive Director of Career and Technical Education (CTE)/Federal Programs. Wilkes County Schools Career & Technical Education (CTE) program is made up of passionate, motivated, highly-trained, and skillful individuals that work hard every day to take advantage of the opportunities and activities made possible through the support of our Board of Education and our local businesses and community partners. Dr. Joe Bullis, Executive Director of CTE and Federal Programs presented updated and information regarding the accomplishment of our students, teachers, staff, and business/community partners. Dr. Bullis touched on the following:  CTE Local Needs Assessment Community Feedback, Pre-Apprenticeships/Apprenticeship Recruiting, Career & Development Coordinators Mrs. Sherry Baird (High School) and Ms. Whitney Abrams (Middle School), and Drone Technology Updates.
 
The apprenticeship program is designed for high school juniors and senior ages 16-18 with an interest and aptitude for a career in construction, nursing, information technology, mechanics, or manufacturing. The students’ tuition is waived, so students attend college class for free while earning credentials and getting paid for specific on-the-job training time with local businesses and industries. The intent is to encourage career-minded high school students to pursue a skilled-trade occupation. The vision of these programs are listed below:
  • Provide opportunities for career exploration for all students
  • Moving students from exploring career options to investing into career futures
  • Course offerings and opportunities are based on students' interest and community needs 

State of the Union for Child Nutrition was presented by our Director of Child Nutrition, Mr. Marty Johnson. Wilkes County Schools Child Nutrition has been operating under provisional legislation associated with pandemic support since March 17, 2022. Recent changes in legislation will change how Child Nutrition operates in the 2022-2023 school year. The current USDA Waivers will expire June 30, 2022. Our area eligibility will end. Free meals for children ages 1-18 will end except with the Summer Food Service Program.
 
For the 2022-2023 school year, elementary and middle schools will be under the Community Eligibility Provision. High schools will follow Traditional Free and Reduced Program guidelines. There will be potential increases in meal charges (TBA based on new bids). In the Discussion section, Mr. Johnson will provide further information which will be voted on at the May Board Meeting.

Chairman Mr. Rudy Holbrook asked if anyone had signed up for Public Comments. No one signed up.

On a motion by Mr. Kennedy, seconded by Mrs. Huffman and duly carried, the minutes for February 7, 2022 were approved as presented.

Mr. Byrd provided a brief update on the COVID-19 pandemic. "As you are well aware, Senate Bill 654 requires Local Boards of Education to review their local mask mandates monthly and to make decisions to continue or discontinue moving forward. At our August 2, 2021 meeting, the decision was made to begin the year with making masks optional for students and teachers in our buildings. At our emergency called meeting on August 30th, the decision was made to follow the guidelines of the StrongSchools NC Public Health Toolkit (K-12) and require masks for all students and staff inside of our buildings, and we stated that this would be reviewed after 30 days. At the September 13, 2021 meeting, the decision was made to honor what we had said and honor this period that we had established. At our October 4 meeting, the board voted 3-2 to continue the mask mandate through the month of October. At our November 6, 2021 meeting, the board voted 3-2 to continue the mask mandate through the month of November. At our December 6, 2021 meeting, the board voted 3-2 against a motion to discontinue the mask mandate effective that date. At our January 10, 2022 meeting, the board voted 3-2 against a motion to discontinue the mask mandate effective that date. At our February 7, 2022 meeting, the board voted 3-2 against a motion to discontinue the mask mandate effective that date. Following the February 10, 2022 updates to the StrongSchoolsNC Public Health Toolkit, our board met in a Special Called Meeting on Tuesday, February 15, and the board voted 5-0 to make masks optional on our campuses effective Wednesday, February 16. At our March 7, 2022 meeting, our board voted 5-0 to continue to make masks optional on our campuses through the month of March. During this time, I have shared updates with the board on number of active cases and the number of quarantines of students and staff (please see the chart below)."

It is the recommendation that masks continue to be optional in Wilkes County Schools, with the only exception being those who are returning to school on days 6-10 after testing positive. On a motion by Mr. Kennedy, seconded by Mrs. Caudill and duly carried, the masks will be optional. All members voted in favor of this decision. This will also be voted on again at our May 2, 2022 board meeting.

On a motion by Mrs. Huffman, seconded by Mrs. Caudill and duly carried, the HVAC Renovations and Upgrades were approved as presented. Wilkes County Schools requested HVAC renovation and upgrade proposals for Mountain View, Millers Creek, and Mulberry Elementary Schools. Proposals were scheduled to be received and opened on March 22 at 3:00 PM. Only one contractor submitted proposals, so we were unable to open them. It was advertised again on Wednesday, March 23 and scheduled to be opened on March 31 at 3:00 PM. Again, only one contractor, Associated Heating and Air Conditioning, submitted proposals for the three schools. Therefore, they were awarded the contract upon approval.

Chief Academic Officer Dr. Donna Cotton presented for discussion the math textbook adoption for elementary schools. This adoption will be submitted for final approval in May. For 2022-2023, Wilkes County elementary schools will adopt the HMH textbook and curriculum, Into Math, as their core math curriculum. The cost of this textbook adoption will be $711,485.54 and will be funded with ESSER II funds that are earmarked to support teaching and learning in response to the impact of COVID-19 by implementing evidence-based activities to meet the comprehensive needs of students. This adoption process started in October 2021 with the 13 elementary principals submitting textbooks of interest. Interest was determined by teacher requests and/or national recommendations from sources such as Ed Reports. A total of six textbooks were submitted for review. These textbooks included:  HMH Into Math, HMH Math Expressions, Curriculum Associates i-Ready, Bridges, SAVAAS Envisions, and Math Investigations. In November and December 2021, all 13 elementary principals and their respective instructional specialists participated in virtual presentations on the six textbooks. At the conclusion of presentations, the top three textbooks were chosen by majority vote. The final three textbooks included Into Math, i-Ready, and Bridges. The remaining three textbooks were then vetted by math lead teachers from each of the 13 elementary schools and the instructional specialists. Vendor presentations were conducted face-to-face on February 1 at the Wilkes County Board of Education. The math lead teachers then voted on the top two textbooks. The top two textbooks were presented and discussed at each elementary school. The math lead teacher, instructional specialist, and the school principal facilitated these discussions with their staff members. Each principal submitted their school’s top choice the first of March. After reviewing the votes, 11 schools voted for HMH Into Math and 2 voted for Bridges.
