Bella Hadid Woodward and Englewood good evening actually hope that after is not going to win tonight I will be handling let me just say that my name's my man is not an attorney and one of the attorneys who represent the school I have been asked to make a presentation for reasons that I was driving just a few minutes but let me just say that and I know some of you have been with us the last two blows up you have this week I guess what the others just may be the first but it's no secret that recent storms have called the number of residents in Des Peres delete and when they leave they took other than killing and the significance of that can be explained by a brief description of the funding formula for public school systems in Louisiana get out some of your money you get from the state and some of it you get some local taxes the amount that you get from the state is to try to buy a coffee when I'm not going to go into this long complicated but in the end of the formula you come out with a profuse warm out maybe it's $5,000 just make up another whatever it is part 2 the state that was saying to you that much money. I'm coming to get you at but when you lose kids you lose money and over the last few years the loss of students in this Parish has resulted in a reduction of revenues of the many millions of dollars now I said last night that the system had lost a million dollars and a couple people and the microphone that were they lose it and wanted to know what happened to the money and who knew pocket it was in and that kind of stuff and when I say I lose money when I'm saying is that the revenue so you would ever seem to have received in the past are no longer cuz you don't have a base to ask about a lot so I'm in Louisiana Constitution every still system operator a balanced budget so just like you do at home you know the amount that you take in got to be the same as the amount that goes out and it's the same way with the school system which means that they have less Revenue than they got to do one of two things maybe even got increase the revenue back up again through new taxes or some or a combination of the two now one of the ways one of the ways that you can reduce expenses if I not operating is Benny stupid and this is a very sensitive subject people get tired and then and they love the schools and so when you have to talk about the possibility of consolidation it doesn't usually do very well and I done probably hundreds of these types of paintings that I can tell you though never got good when I left but it is what it is we have to I'll put the facts on the table so we can talk about how to spell they your school system currently has seats for about ten thousand students routing off here about ten thousand fifteen years existing School you currently have about 50 too much so if you compare the two and looks like that she's got some seats that are not being used and seats that don't maybe don't need to be so the question is the 5200 do you spread them out over the same Abdul that you had when you have a much larger student population or do you think the 5200 put them in in fewer school in order to save money and to try to work for that deficit if you're facing South Dakota baseball for the school system was simply because of the loss of revenues baseball law students so one of the things that that the board has directed they asked me and just to have I'm just happier by the way it was a professional photographer and what he does for a living if put together map showing where every child Parish lives at from that bath he can lock the delta how many kids name of that song you just proved how many white how many black how many of the races what schools they go to just buy a new one but I drawing that's all pretty fast today but sit there watch I need I see saw you got your copies made it out these are maps that were prepared by nothing out there and I I called it playing on this machine but with his computer technology put these together for making sure that you understand the forward has not approved any for the doctor has a plan until a couple days ago this particular map didn't even show up because that's the after I weigh station few days ago so well we were asked by the boys do you have to have public hearings put it out there the street and let everybody see it and then talk about it and get comments from the public has two ways that we come up with something else this is just the first draft if I showed up a meeting like this said okay let's talk and we have nothing to look at while we having that conversation what we've done if we put together for that go begin the conversations knowing that it could lead a lot of different directions when we put together the map there were certain things that we make sure that we tried to do any never want to try to come up with a plan that move the fewest number of 2 number to we try to come up with a plan to move the shortest possible distance and Topps number 3 we look with the sitter crossing railroad tracks hey are you going to see and hear that one of the main and division play the school district as the railroad track you live on one side of practical ones to live on the other side you go to another school that's all that cost nothing go back and forth across that railroad track everything we also looked at the gray truck you know every school on the East Bank I'm talking about you staying tonight every school on the East Bay Hay Day for Pre-K and save it except good for y'all never good for y'all to mannerism cage full that's the only one all the rest of the schools are K-8 does not have practice on the Westbank stop it at 8:12 so are you have an elementary junior a combination on both sides of the river everywhere except to feel also concerns have been raised by citizens in the community about the date to plant in particular off both plants with Landry don't know what it's called but today cuz imma call it plan that's located in the to you and some papers that they pressed about no children being exposed unnecessarily to things in the air in that for you so that was considered as well that's all after we eat we consider and then we tried to put together the map that you have before you or if you have all the wrong and that you have before you now I said that. I text my wife attorneys doing this any change in Dubai in your stools got to go. that'll be my job is that it to the federal court so helpful for me to find out the background get as much information as I can so that I'm in a better position to do my job board down the road I also have to make sure that the plant does not negatively affect the school system's desegregation efforts and so I'm looking at that as well what the heck should I eat the number to Stacy's has have been looking at it from that perspective as well so I'm having said all that I was going to just going to explain that after considering the gray the capacities of the school transportation times and distances for Chester fall savings and no concerns the planet Neptune after I came up with just before you began the conversation call the closure Biltmore y'all know and the reassignment of those kids too 4 different School many of the will be assigned here AL East 22nd Street which is about so I know that you don't want to be with each place I can straighten I am but if you live on this side of East 22nd Street you'll be assigned here if you live on the other side of East 22nd Street to 245 Emily Cy now if you move north and cross the railroad tracks at all the way up to the railroad now if you're north of the railroad tracks give me going to St John repeat the garden, 582 a Payday and handle all the kids north of the railroad tracks the only other changes that have you pooped on the map I guess probably. beriberi northeast corner of the existing Fifth Ward zone is actually on the other side of Belle Terre. you're all just so you can feed you can meet you on the other side of Belle Terre Boulevard and still be in the Fifth Ward different proposal to make additional space remove some of the children for that song to laugh which makes him some of the cancers closest three blocks from the Alabama so it's um it's a transportation pass so that's pretty much Where We Are I'm headed to st. John's Prep because that's where all the kids go just to 8 but you took Priscilla teeth are there not accommodate both the Fifth Ward Elementary and thank God for that. Too many kids were that small amp it's all the  it's almost we had to fight the kids put on a different direction and we like to do that if we don't have to but this particular situation we bought that that would be the best way to the third of the public hearing that the board asked us to conduct this purpose of this hearing is not to listen to me on purpose of the hearing some business for you guys we are taking minutes you know Justin and what area that was wrong and don't just want to go back to review the information to know you know you live in the garyville area do you live in Lacrosse do you live in and you know 54 where do you live because I've helped us figure out the settlement of Fleetwood Mac from you I also asked that I've been asking you to do this find my brake pedal people over here when you come up please identify yourself and do it clearly enough she can get your name down for the men like a boss. Great and sometimes pick you up there to try to get it tomorrow with your name if we don't catch the full name Google or brother like to know who you are and what your position is called so again I think I'm going over to make changes again they are if you have the maps available and I do have math on the wall over here to a look but the major changes are Fifth Ward Elementary closed the children with the other side here and north of the railroad tracks that go to St John Prep with the one Park West part of East Belle Terre Boulevard a date for pre-k day and have a sister so you can play all of the schools we pay based on the numbers that we've been given that they will get you the facet in those schools to accommodate those with kids for example here we are projecting a total enrollment of 541 to Carly if you have about 325 as of Thanksgiving last number I'll call you at 3:25 and Thanksgiving on the  and you have 5:44 so basically you're picking up a few hundred kids from Fifth Ward to add you to I have the number Gulfport after the other skills as well, but that we think that they would be within the capacities of these buildings which began with one of the situations that we thought about trying to put together the most make sure you understand clearly this is not the boards plan for that boat or anything before I smoke after they finish this public hearings after the death of the opportunity to review the information provided to him. Halo several times last night people ask how much money do you say about that how much you think about this I'm just going to go ahead and get ahead of the curve here and tell you though we don't do that because you have to figure out where they how much money you going to say if you have to actually plot bus routes and determined you know how long the bus route to going to be versus how long they are now how many stops we make now teacher calendar if you move to out of 200 people are going to have to be moved here and was 202 can you take advantage about adding more kids or classes of you can do it without adding a back to save some money it's no secret here then we talk about consolidation you don't save a lot of money by closing the building because you have to keep the building on the phone anyway. it's going to be making more efficient use of your personnel so that you over the course of time and reduce your over elephant payroll off with usually run between 80 and 85% Bible prophecy salivation foxes you do not need as many support people you would need to be custodian would be Disney food service would be as many teachers or how about the body classes Play Breaking Benjamin station Classic 60s how much money I'm going to tell you right now can't get your number I can't tell you that Starfleet would have it done just doesn't usually run power down to a billion dollars a year and say that we don't like him I said that's going to be through here but the number usually is in that area it is certainly not even close to the Fox Lake make it louder Hadley Creek in your face. So it would have been with only be a piece of a bigger pie that your board the rattle is going to have to figure out how to raise revenue how to reduce expenses North narrow that gap between the two this is not going to solve the financial dilemma of the school system and I want to make sure everybody understands so this time I'm going to try to call you around and invite anyone who would like to be her to come out once I get out of the house and you please identify yourself clearly so we can get your name in a minute what part of Paris you come from and then what happened to receive you. so again thank you I'll have to go up and coming out tonight and we welcome your copies I was told I guess I forgot we do have some interpreters present in the event that there are his bank citizens to have his phone English language who can help you out in space that you would like to be hard as well so yeah I'm going to turn over if you don't want to let you all up stop it good evening John Taylor my name is Milan Taylor we are here to help on your behalf how many Spanish-speaking family so what's your best life everybody here if there's something else I need to be repeated from the German people first you can always ask them if you're not going to say anything else but what you say we say what everybody else okay but then again. on the toilet download Magnet School everyone in the name is Victor going to do near me my name is Victor Jones I'm going to tourney with the n-double-acp legal you represent black Staley High School teachers as well as parents and children in the ongoing School accreditation case in St John the Baptist Parish so I just wanted to introduce myself to let you all know that I am here I am taking down your information on any issues that you have with the school or with his proposal on police also speak to me as well about that thank you it was awful.

I have not heard throughout this presentation how do you receive caratoke Highway receive supplemental resources in order to educate the increasing amount of hours they receive UPS Store recent evidence evidence based practice consolidation of schools just woke up should provide more extra a program within that margin School address micro Roni benefit analysis has only been presented to the people not how play children will gain from this consolidation is there a comparison is there a comparison data that can be fact-checked that shows the budget deficit compared to the game that will be received where is the Denver mation posted how can the people this information needs to be visible magic version in order for anyone to make an informed decision comparable data in the facts that are presentable for them to be them to review and that is not what's being done this is an Abrupt decision being made up or preventing breakfast dishes at being presented but that has been in the works for a while. another one like I said my my child does not attend any of these foods that are being affected however I am a member in this community and I think everybody and I'm sure my sister everybody it is not fair for the people to elect member community and ibuprofen Slender Man when information is presented a verb if the tallest people in the members for reacting emotionally and knocking that does not give good results transparency is it is edit in tight we need transparency and before this meeting closes I would appreciate if somebody would be able to tell us where we can follow Financial train to would be ahead of the budget deficit for a cut or where the parents is from the edge of the education was saying so that is not an appropriate for a surprise for a three-day hearing something that we can follow along the way so that we can speak about it in in Winn-Dixie or at matern but how do we train parents see what is happening because the the statement of your have that answer then you should be having this meeting on Sunday that it took to draw Batman and all that time and effort should have been put into it in a transparent way and how their children would be affected from a pro and a con stand for and that's all I have to say Kevin Gates Batman good evening I was on the school board for he'll be 20 years I live in Mount Airy area remember I was the only member of a of their school board who had a son a child in public schools. I think we need to hit on a couple of the major things about the need for transparency and being upfront with every available part of the information. website to send out public news releases to the media so that they have to offer assure definition I don't agree with a couple of other things have been said here who is Soros about the world Can't Hold Us why don't you box we have lost money because we have lost money that can be arranged through with this consolidation will cover the loss of the Republic. not cover the loss of money that would be Western Union so we have lost stop. four pics one word for realize and we're all here to offer thoughts about this consolidation it's important for this boy to realize that's because our nation multi million-dollar deficit bathroom caddy Universe changes logically Discount clothes in school understand what's to understand that's vicious. and so let's present thoughts and buy pills to last folks who will take this information and come up with a possible where do Santa lives we need to bring facts such as Google concerned about children they have special names they need to know these things and consider them over doing tonight is find my way to wrap it all up and save this there are tons of dollars less to spend next year seconds there is no way that closing a school is going to solve the problem but it may be necessary I am going to ask these nice folks and the ones who are here the information they're getting used to living here when he needs of the people who are and include them as best you can and you are not going to be able to solve everybody's problems are going to be people who are going to be unhappy decide to do but that's fine classic 50s.

John Prep to come here because of the new drug I don't know you tell me how many kids are in families how many first grade family coming to New Jersey family based on this map find me this because of the new change the same time will have the students that could potentially be moved based on the new change and they're coming to get rid of it and my Acura in the same moment so the next thing is as far as classroom housing have we considered Head Start program for main house on this campus or are they relocating to allow for space classroom for the students that we are game party food 541 morning to the information provided by staff always enjoy the ride.

Belle Terre Boulevard you can be you can be on the other side of Belle Terre Boulevard and still be in the Fifth Ward call Ira mobile to make additional space at St John's wrap so they can remove some of the children for that song do the floss which makes him some theaters closest to me Alabama so if some interesting with the transportation passing distances that I actually didn't tell him I did it before so that's pretty much where we going immediately in that is if it for didn't really need to be car why could you just add it to St John Prep because that's where all the kids go look at the 8th but you still up teeth are not accommodate all be good for elementary and St John Prep. Too many kids were that small amp and so we had to take the kids to put on a different directions and we like to do that if we don't have to but it just the tick we call that that would be the best way to accomplish that this is the third of the public hearings that the board asked us to conduct this purpose of this hearing is not listen to me on purpose of the hearings we are taking minutes you know Justin who's mode and what area they were from that helps is when I go back to review the information to know you know do you live in the area Bill area do you live in Fifth Ward where do you live because I helped us figure out the settlement of the beating that from you at all so ask then I've been asking you to do this when you come up please identify yourself and do it clearly enough she can get your name down for the Medics microphones not great and sometimes we can get up here at a guy to get it hurry with your name, Google to know who you are and what your positions are all so again I think I'm going over the formation changes again they are if you have the maps available and I do not have the wall over here too but the major changes on Fifth Ward Elementary to close the children would be giving up on the other side and Norfolk railroad tracks that go St John Prep with the one part left part of the boss area he's in East Detroit Belle Terre Boulevard the auto reply on a $7 car so that was a major changes all skills with MBA ain't my Pre-K age and having participated play all of your tools do things based on the numbers that we've been given Pasadena go to the top of a kazoo kid earrape we are projecting a total enrollment 540 wants to Carly if you have about 300 as of Thanksgiving last number if I have a Thanksgiving and I was I'm sure pretty close to say so you at 3:25 at Max getting under this plan you would have 5:41 so they make it for you picking up that 200 kids from Pitbull to add you to the fish I have the numbers to Northport after the other skills as well and I brought that we think that they would be within the capacities of these buildings but you can with one of them still thought about trying to put together before I want to make sure you understand clearly this is not the board plan for that boat on anything before and after they finish this public hearing the information provided to hearing what I'm saying while I got the microphone cuz it came up several times last night people ask how much money do you say about this how much do you think about this I'm just going to go ahead and get ahead of the curve here at 10 you don't know that reason we don't know that because you have to figure out where they called you know how much money you been saying you have to actually both routes and determined you know how long the bus route to going to be then you're going to have to swat teacher counts if you move to out of 200 people how many teachers are going to have to be moved here in hand with 200 can you take advantage if I had an start classes at Hillview teaching 12:44 and you can do it class up the 20 without adding teacher you actually save some money if it's no secret here then we'll talk about consolidation you don't say a lot of money because you have the key to building up to code anyone the four major saving is going to be making more efficient use of your personnel so that you over the course of time and who's your over which usually run between 80 and 85% of the budget you can reduce the tables off to the consolidation process you can do with you do not need to meditate for things you need to make a stop real quick service would need as many teachers perhaps by providing classes and make it better your position as last Saturday so I asked how much money will tell you right now I can't get your number I can't tell Berkeley County done this without the district's it's usually runs between 500000 to $80 a year I'll say that's going to be true here but the numbers usually is that is certainly not even close to the Fox Lake Megan dollars that you had decreased in your safe traveling so it was a biscuit. that you're bored the right away is going to have to figure out how to raise revenues how to reduce expenses in order to narrow that gap between the two this is not going to solve my dilemma public school system so this time I'm going to try to call you around and invite anyone who would like to be her to come out again I would ask that you please identify yourself clearly so we can get your name in a minute farrish come from and then we're happy to receive your call sometime again so again thank you I'll have to work for coming out tonight and we welcome your time I was told I guess I forgot we got to do here Carpenters present in the event that there are his bank citizens who have his trouble with the English language who can help you out in case if you would like to be hard as well so yeah I do y'all have a cholo good evening everyone.
