Agenda:
A.1 - Agenda Item Title: - Planning Board Update on Proposed Zoning Amendments for Spring
Town Meeting Involving Accessory Apartments and Two-Family Dwelling (10 minutes)
Presenter: Charles Hornig
Summary The Planning Board has some upcoming proposals for Annual Town Meeting that
may impact planning for future student enrollment. More information on web:
http://www.lexingtonma.gov/planning-department/pages/two-family-homes;
http://www.lexingtonma.gov/planning-department/pages/accessory-apartments
There were questions and comments from the School Committee:
• Are there any restrictions in terms of the square footage to the two family developments?
Answer: Two family dwellings would be held to the same regulations as single family
dwellings.
• Fair Housing laws. Answer: We are not considering the presence of children in these
houses as we make our decisions. Their purpose is to create more affordable housing.
• 20/20 vision committee survey – included diversity of houses and town values.
Student Representative Abigail Schwartz: Asked Mr. Hornig whether his report suggests an
increase or decrease in enrollment? Answer: Mr. Hornig said it was inconclusive. Chair – Being
aware of this possible change in housing stock is something to keep track of as the administration
creates projections for future enrollment.
A.2 - Agenda Item Title: Superintendent Mid-Cycle Progress Review
Presenter: Dr. Mary Czajkowski
Summary: As part of the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education
Educator Evaluation system, the Superintendent presented her mid-cycle progress review.
School Committee Members received a flash drive of the Superintendent’s Mid-Cycle Progress
Review and a binder is located in the School Committee’s office.
Dr. Czajkowski has made some revisions on her goals. She thanked Alessandrini and Coppe for
their work on the sub-committee as part of the superintendent evaluation.
Student Representative Abigail Schwartz:
• Clarification of what a walk through means? Answer: A learning walk through is an
opportunity for teachers and administrators to come together in a focused inquiry to look
at instruction practice and provide feedback.
• Are you observing teachers in the classroom? Answer: No, it’s not part of the
observation process. The specific focus is to observe practices rather than teachers.
• A concern being raised by students on the homework policy is that the current policy is
not being followed. What will you be doing to ensure that the new homework policy is
followed? Answer: The language that is contained in the current policy is too specific
and very difficult to monitor and ensure that it’s being followed. Dr. Czajkowski feels
that the policy should be more general, and not as specific. The School Committee
should take a position on the value of homework and leave it up to the administration to
LSC Meeting Minutes of 2.23.16 - Approved by SC 3.30.16 5
implement the homework policy and practices based upon feedback from students, staff
and parents.
• Concerned that a deeper discussion of values would not have any bearings on the number
of minutes of homework, or whether or not projects are assigned over vacation for
students. I am here to bring the student’s perspective – they want a specific policy.
Answer: One of the things at the last Coalition Meeting I had asked for more feedback
from the students. Part of homework is that the teacher must have the freedom and the
flexibility. It is very hard to dictate a policy that you will enforce that says everybody
must give x amount of homework this limits the freedom of teachers.
• Time if also valuable and so is sleep. Answer: Dr. Czajkowski asked that something be
submitted to her in writing from the student’s views.
• “Superintendent house calls” are they for struggling students or community members
who are involved? Answer: They are not for any particular student. It was a way for me
to introduce myself to parents and the community in a very non threatening way. How to
partner with parents and schools. Dr. Czajkowski has attended five house calls.
• Metric to measure your success is the number of meetings you attended – do you feel this
is a good measure for your success. Answer: I did not indicate that as a measure of
success. I don’t look at the number of meetings as the measure or indicator. Looking
back at the goal, the indicator gave me a snapshot of how many meetings I am attending.
I don’t use the number as much as the content.
There were questions and comments from the School Committee:
• Homework – community needs real dialogue. Members talked about need for discussion
of value and also specifics about vacations and other limitations.
• Technology Director – Dr. Czajkowski mentioned there are 3 internal candidates, are
there any external candidates? Answer: Yes
• Thanked Dr. Czajkowski for the Mid-Cycle Progress Review. Is there one area in
particular that if you looked back and could do differently what would that be? Answer:
Looking through these goals and reflecting more, I would have preferred to spend more
time in schools with teachers and principals.
• This evaluation is not one that the School Committee devised – this is a State Evaluation.
• Meeting totals – could there have been fewer meetings accomplishing the same goals?
Answer: As a new superintendent there is a lot of demand for people to meet me. Being
visible is important.
• Binder was extremely helpful for referencing.
Steigerwald moved that the School Committee accept Dr. Czajkowski February 1, 2015
revision of her performance goals 2015-2016 (Hurley seconded)
The Motion was approved (5-0).
LSC Meeting Minutes of 2.23.16 - Approved by SC 3.30.16 6
A.3 - Agenda Item Title: Fiscal Year 2016 Second Quarter Financial Report
Presenter: Ian Dailey (Interim Director of Finance and Operations)
Summary: The current balance projected as of the Second Quarter report is a surplus of
$1,567,200. The projection assumes all budgeted positions are filled and assumes all program
budgets are fully expended. The major source of these funds causing the surplus in Salaries and
Wages is turnover in staff, unpaid leaves of absence, and vacancy gaps. The major drivers for the
deficit in the Expense portion of the budget are Special Education Out-of-District Tuitions,
Special Education Transportation, and Homeless Transportation.
Each of these topics was reviewed and supporting materials are included in the packet.
Salaries & Wages: A detailed listing of the Salaries and Wages portion of the budget projection
can be found attached. Projections are based on known positions and estimated wage settlements
for units with unsettled contracts. The FY16 general fund operating budget included a total of
1,035.73 FTE system-wide. At this time, the current general fund operating budget has increased
to a total of 1,050.49, an increase of 14.76 FTE. This is partially attributable to FTE transfers
from grants (during Fiscal Year 2015 and 2016), the increase in hours for Full-Day Kindergarten
Assistants (15 hours per week to 18 hours per week), and supplemental positions not included in
the original budget developed last fall. The Fiscal Year 2015 First Quarter Financial Report
included an FTE increase of 24.82 FTE. Therefore, in Fiscal Year 2016 this data point has
improved. This has a direct effect on the projected balance in the Salaries & Wages portion of
the projection.
Expenses: The overall expense budget currently projects a deficit of $261,183. At this time the
projection assumes all program budgets will be fully expended. Additionally, a detailed review
of Transportation and Tuitions is conducted as these are the largest single expense items and are
the largest drivers of budget variability in the Expense budget. Details in report.
Line 41 – Tuition: The Fiscal Year 2016 budget included a 50% reduction to the High Risk
category of tuition, effectively lowering the tuition budget by $773,580. This had a direct affect
to Line 41 of the budget above. This budget line is being monitored very closely, as such a
detailed breakdown can be seen in the packet.
As seen in the packet when comparing the budget to the current tuition projection a deficit of
$892,271 is being projected. This deficit assumes all of the current High Risk Budget will be
realized. After a detailed review of this information with the Special Education Department, it is
anticipated the $300,734 of the $938,721 currently held in High Risk will not be realized. Based
on this adjustment, this lowers the projected deficit. Additionally, upon review of expense
accounts after the close of the Fiscal Year 2015 budget, an anticipated one-time transfer of
$576,716 will be completed to further offset the projected deficit.
LSC Meeting Minutes of 2.23.16 - Approved by SC 3.30.16 7
Based on the data discussed before, the Fiscal Year 2017 budget re-establishes the High Risk
portion of the Tuition budget at 100%. A table analyzing the high risk budget and budget
surpluses (deficits) each year has been compiled to identify trends. This table can be seen in the
packet.
There were questions and comments from members about the report. Specifically, substitute
teacher deficit, adjusted projected deficit, METCO surplus, and thanked Ms. Sugita for
improving Special Education budgeting practices and Mr. Daily for mentioning Budget Transfer
Policy.
Line 42 – Transportation: Special Education: The Fiscal Year 2016 budget is projecting a
$96,869 deficit. The Fiscal Year 2016 Special Education Transportation budget was assembled
using 182 students (99 In district and 83 Out of District). At this time a total of 196 students (108
In District and 88 Out of District) are riding in the program, an increase of 7.7% in total. This
increase in ridership has triggered the currently projected deficit in this budget line.
Line 42.1 – Transportation: Homeless: The Fiscal Year 2016 budget is projecting a $25,220
deficit. Details in report
Line 47 – Teacher Substitutes: The Fiscal Year 2016 budget is projecting a $124,273 deficit.
Details in report.
Budget Transfers: Mr. Dailey reviewed the transfers he recommended as necessary to address
anticipated deficits. The below table was assembled to outline all program level budget
transfers necessary in the FY16 expense budget at the time of issuing this report. This
information is being presented per School Committee Policy (DBJ: Budget Transfer Authority),
which requires School Committee approval for those program to program line transfers in excess
of $75,000.
LSC Meeting Minutes of 2.23.16 - Approved by SC 3.30.16 8
Grant Summary: Throughout the fiscal year grants are monitored since awards are often not
known at the time of building a budget. A summary of budget, actual awards, and projected
balances can be seen in the packet:
There were questions and comments from School Committee members in regards to the Fiscal
Year 2016 Second Quarter Financial Report.
Move to approve the transfers outlined in the Budget Transfers section of Mr. Daily’s report,
per School Committee Policy DBJ, for Fiscal Year 2015-16. (Crocker/Alessandrini).
The Motion was approved (5-0).
A.4– Agenda Item Title: Multiple School Capital Project & A.4.a - Discussion of Anticipated
Debt Exclusion for School Projects
Presenter: School Committee and Administration
Summary: A.4 Multiple School Capital Project Updated - Special Town Meeting will meet
February 22, 2016 and it is anticipated that Dr. Czajkowski and members will discuss the action
taken by Town Meeting at that meeting.
Members appreciated support from Town Meeting. Mr. Goddard provided some schedule
