MINUTES OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MEETING OF September 4, 2025   Current Board Members-          North Berwick-  Lauren Janousek, Kate Whalen, Joshua Tabor                            Berwick- Alison Herlihy, Marissa Tasker, Peg Wheeler                            Lebanon- Nancy Sewell, Jeridene Basko, Melissa Cyr  (For a full account of this meeting please review the video here… Link   you can choose to view the transcript in progress by clicking CC for subtitles.) A meeting of the Board of Directors was held in person on September 4, 2025 at 7:00 pm with all members attending except Ms. Herlihy who was remote. There were 3 members of the public present.  Pledge of Allegiance The Vice Chair, Ms. Wheeler, read the public input statement.  Public Input: None at this time Minutes:  Ms. Wheeler made the motion and it was seconded by Ms. Cyr to accept the minutes of August 21 , 2025 as amended . All members voted in favor except Mr. Tabor and Ms. Basko who abstained and the motion passed. School District Opening 2025/ Enrollment  The Superintendent noted that we have had several open houses and will have several more next week.  Turn outs have been very high at the open house, very positive participation.  Pre K started on Tuesday.  Things are going very well. The State Dept. came in today and were very impressed with how well things are running this early in the program.  The Middle School integrated into the high school smoothly.  Transportation is challenging particularly with every route being reconfigured this school year and the ongoing driver shortage.  All are working hard to meet the needs of our students.   We need to pay appreciation to our Technology, Custodians, Transportation and all staff for their incredible support and hard work over the summer to get this all done for the opening of schools with the reconfiguration.  Student enrollment was shared (Please insert enrollment document here).  Total District Enrollment: 2,795 students (down 37 from previous year) PreK: 89 Elementary (K-5): 1,294 students Middle (6-8): 629 students High School (9-12): Grade-specific numbers provided Board Goals The Superintendent gave an overview of the 2025 board goals  and where we are in meeting those goals.  Pathways to Success - Academic Achievement High Quality Resources - Staffing Facilities Curriculum & Safety Community Engagement Employment: None at this time. Superintendent Update:   The superintendent reviewed the policy for visitors in the school and how that applies to school board members. The board had a conversation regarding the procedures. This will go forward to the policy committee.  Other:  Ms. Sewell asked about the Multiple Pathways program and how the program works. We shared a link to the program overview on the website: https://www.nhs.rsu60.org/aboutmultiplepathways Ms. Herlihy wanted to note that despite recent tragic events and the horrifying nature of school violence that receives significant media coverage, students today are statistically safer in public schools than they have ever been - they're less likely to be victims of violent crime than in previous decades, including the 1990s. While we must continue monitoring and addressing these issues, the increased attention and security measures have made schools safer than ever for our children. Ms. Wheeler noted that this may be true, but the number one cause of death for kids in this country is gun violence.  Mr. Tabor made the motion and it was seconded by Ms. Sewell to have all information provided to the board with the agenda when there is a presentation to be shared with the board at a meeting. There was discussion regarding the feasibility of this request and how it can be problematic.  Ms. Sewell suggested that we provide hard copies of the presentations when they are available.  Ms. Herlihy noted that if there needs to be more conversation regarding information then we can provide more time at the following meeting. There was a discussion regarding learning styles and allowing us to provide the presentation within the right context. We discussed allowing the presentation to be made with context, clarifying questions to be made, and then following up at the next meeting. Mr. Tabor and Ms. Sewell then rescinded their motion.  Public Input: Mr. Shawn Works of North Berwick, asked for a more proactive approach to communication to help cut down the chatter and misunderstandings regarding school issues and circumstances. We will add that to our goals.  Mr. Kevin Jessell, Berwick Maine, spoke about the "Noble Board Revealed" social media page allegedly run by multiple board members. While claiming transparency, he argued it's being used for targeted political attacks. He stated that having multiple people write under one identity is unprofessional and sets a terrible example for staff and students. Jessel believes any district employee engaging in personal attacks on social media should face dismissal. He requested pupil spending comparisons to other York County communities from the superintendent. Jessel announced that over the next two years, he will use his own funds and time to ensure all three towns know these numbers through posters, brochures, and mailings. He acknowledged the board has done well with budgets for 15 years and believes this information could change the rhetoric and conversation. Mr. Jessel  declared that Mr. Tabor should not be reelected and wished he would resign.  Several board members did speak to the name of Noble Board Revealed and asked for Mr. Tabor and Ms. Sewell to rename the page so that it was more clearly articulated that this is NOT a MSAD 60 school board sanctioned page. Adjournment:  Ms.  Janousek  made a motion and it was seconded by Ms. Tasker to adjourn the meeting. All members voted in favor and the motion passed.  Adjourned at 9:28 pm. Respectfully submitted, Audra Beauvais

MINUTES OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ MEETING OF September 18, 2025   Current Board Members-          North Berwick-  Lauren Janousek, Kate Whalen, Joshua Tabor                            Berwick- Alison Herlihy, Marissa Tasker, Peg Wheeler                            Lebanon- Nancy Sewell, Jeridene Basko, Melissa Cyr  (For a full account of this meeting please review the video here… Link   you can choose to view the transcript in progress by clicking CC for subtitles.) A meeting of the Board of Directors was held in person on September 18, 2025 at 7:00 pm with all members attending except Ms. Herlihy. There were 8 members of the public present.  Pledge of Allegiance Ms. Wheeler made the motion and it was seconded by Ms. Basko to table the board goals discussion to our next meeting. There was discussion regarding whether the full discussion needed to be moved if the administration is able to answer any of these questions this evening. Other board members noted they would prefer to wait for the full discussion based on everyone having full understanding of the concerns   All members voted in favor except Mr. Tabor, Ms. Sewell and Ms. Basko who opposed and the motion passed.  Public Input:  *Public Input is the opinion of the public and not  Mr. Kevin Jessell, of Berwick Maine, addressed the school board with concerns about their district having the lowest per-pupil spending in York County by several thousand dollars. He proposed that the board should consider building a new school in Lebanon, suggesting there's enough room in the budget between their current spending and county averages to make this feasible without breaking the bank. He recommended starting with a student survey that could then be presented to the community to assess the actual need and build public support for what would need to be a collaborative community project. He praised the board's recent fiscal management, noting the district has been debt-free since 2021, and emphasized that strategic spending could address the space concerns in Lebanon.  Minutes:  Mr. Tabor made the motion and it was seconded by Ms. Cyr to table the minutes of September 4 , 2025 to be revised to summary format .  The board discussed the format of meeting minutes, specifically whether to continue with detailed transcription-style minutes or return to summary format following Robert's Rules of Order. Board members expressed concerns about the time-intensive nature of detailed minutes and suggested that technology solutions like transcription software might be more appropriate if full transcripts are desired. The consensus favored returning to summary-style minutes focusing on motions, actions, and key decisions while ensuring meeting videos remain accessible to the public. A motion was made and seconded to table the September 4th minutes approval and request administration revise them to summary format. All members voted in favor and the motion was passed.  Live Streaming:  Administration presented options for live streaming board meetings, including using the Town of Berwick's conference room facilities for $60 per hour with professional streaming equipment and technical support. Concerns were raised about FERPA compliance, potential for false statements during live broadcasts, equipment reliability, and costs that could reach over $4,000 annually given meeting frequency and duration. After discussion, the board decided to maintain meetings within district schools while committing to post meeting recordings within 24 hours of each meeting. Mr. Tabor made the motion and it was seconded by Ms. Cyr to hold our meetings within the district schools with the commitment to a 24 hour turn around for the video. All members voted in favor and the motion passed. Employment: None at this time . Bus driver shortages continue, though arrival times have significantly improved from over 5:20 PM in the first week of school to approximately 4:40-4:45 PM currently. Morning transportation to schools has also shown vast improvement. Superintendent Update: The superintendent provided clarification about adult education classes being held at Knowlton School following community questions. Two classes are currently operating: "Dress a Girl" (a volunteer sewing group making clothing for girls in other countries) on Tuesdays with 7-9 participants, and Tai Chi in the gymnasium on Thursdays. All participants are escorted by adult education staff, use designated entrances, and do not have unsupervised access to the building. Background checks for volunteers were discussed as a potential enhancement to community confidence. Facilities Planning Extensive discussion occurred regarding the approach to facilities planning, including capital improvements and potential decisions about Lebanon Elementary. The board decided to schedule dedicated facilities meetings starting October 9th from 6:00-9:00 PM, with additional meetings as needed through December to meet budget timeline requirements. It was emphasized that Lebanon Elementary discussions would not be rushed and would include substantial community input and listening sessions. The facilities work will address capital improvement plans, building conditions, and long-term facility needs across the district. Other   Ms. Wheeler reported dangerous traffic conditions during student pickup at the Hussey School, with backups extending to Route 236 and creating unsafe situations. The addition of pre-kindergarten dismissal has exacerbated existing problems. Administration acknowledged the issue and noted that while staggered dismissal by grade level had been attempted previously, current staffing and logistics make this challenging. Administration is working to find solutions to the situation. Also of note is that with the driver shortage, more parents are having to pick up their students. There is hope this will lessen with increased driver hires. Old Business:   Mr. Tabor requested for the board to consider Policy BEDB and it notes that agendas and supporting information will be mailed to each Board member on the Friday prior to the regular Thursday meeting.  There was more discussion regarding this issue. Ms. Janousek asked that the policy committee review this policy to bring it into the current timeline.  Ms. Cyr asked if there had been a “report out” regarding the state visit of the Pre-K programs. There was nothing in writing, just a verbal note of the positive visit. Ms. Cyr also asked about accommodations for students who are staying after school for practices on early release Wednesdays. Mr Dufort, principal of NMHS, shared that there was coverage for students who needed to stay afterschool through the start of practice.  Public Input: None at this time.  Adjournment:  Ms. Janousek  made a motion and it was seconded by Ms. Cyr to adjourn the meeting. All members voted in favor and the motion passed.  Adjourned at 8:48  pm. Respectfully submitted, Audra Beauvais

There are many factors that impact the bus routes and it will take some time to firm them up as we move through the school year.  Patience and positive attitude will be appreciated as we work to resolve the route issues that inevitably arise each year during the first few weeks of school. We are down several drivers due to medical issues but we also have several new drivers in training to take over routes.   Ms. Janousek made the motion and it was seconded by Ms Wheeler  to add Others to the agenda.

He was a well known and appreciated teacher in our district and we share condolences with the family. There will be a memorial service in September. His spouse, Ms. Jennifer Sprague, is a teacher in our district at the North Berwick Elementary School.  Public Input: None at this time.  Adjournment:  Ms. Janousek  made a motion and it was seconded by Ms. Wheeler to adjourn the meeting.

Dear Parent/Guardian, All students in the State of Maine are eligible to receive free breakfast and lunch each school day . There is no cost to families for these meals, regardless of household income or participation in other programs. Meals served in our schools meet the nutrition standards established by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and are designed to support student health and learning. Although meals are provided free to all students, we strongly encourage families to complete the Household Income Application .  https://rsu60msad60.nlappscloud.com Completing this form helps ensure our district receives critical state and federal funding to support students—and it may also qualify your household for several valuable assistance programs, including: • Home Energy Assistance (HEAP / LIHEAP): Helps eligible households pay for heating costs and may decrease your energy bills. • Low Income Assistance Program (LIAP): Offers credits on electric bills for LIHEAP-eligible homes. • Emergency Fuel or Crisis Assistance (ECIP): Provides help when facing a heating crisis. • Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) + Lifeline: Discounts your internet or phone bill—up to $30/month or up to $75 for Tribal households—and may include up to $100 toward a device. If your family’s circumstances change—such as a decrease in income, increase in household size, job loss, or benefits like SNAP, TANF, or FDPIR—please update your application at any time to ensure eligibility for these and other supports. All information provided is kept confidential and shared only with officials managing school nutrition, education, and assistance programs as permitted by law. If your child has a disability, as determined by a licensed medical authority, that prevents them from eating the regular school meal, the school will provide a substitution prescribed by that authority—at no additional charge. Please contact the school for assistance with meal accommodations. Thank you for supporting our school meal program and helping ensure every child in Maine has access to nutritious, healthy meals—and that families receive all the support they qualify for. Thank you  David Vargas Director of School Nutrition david.vargas@msad60.org

Ms. Sewell shared her concerns as well regarding the time that the students are going to be spending away from their homes.   We will have the bus routes for the board to consider in the near future.  Public Input:  Ms. Whalen, of North Berwick, shared her own personal statement, regarding a certification letter requested by the The U.S. Department of Education to state commissioners and LEAs regarding their legal obligations under Title IX and other civil rights laws, including a request for certification of compliance.  She shared her beliefs about adhering to the current state Maine Human Rights Commission law.    Adjournment:  Ms. Janousek  made a motion and it was seconded by Ms. Wheeler  to adjourn the meeting.

April 10, 2025 Reconfiguration Update   Teachers, building administrators and staff have been working hard on the reconfiguration transition plan.  Here are some pertinent updates: Upcoming Open Houses for Knowlton School, Noble Middle School, and  Noble High School After April break, Knowlton School, Noble Middle School, and Noble High School will each host an Open House event. These events are designed for students and families of those entering grades 4 through 8  in the fall. It’s a great opportunity to visit the school buildings, meet school administrators and some key staff, gather initial information, and ask any questions you may have. This is one of several opportunities for students and families to get to know their new school before the first day of school in the fall. Open House Dates: April 29, 2025 – Noble Middle School For students entering 5th and 6th grades April 30, 2025 – Knowlton School For students entering 4th grade May 6, 2025 – Noble High School For students entering 7th and 8th grades Official notification with event times will be provided to students entering these grade levels. Transportation: As part of our ongoing reconfiguration planning, the MSAD #60 Transportation Department is working closely with our transportation management provider, BusRight, to build efficient bus routes for the 2025–2026 school year.
