Attached for your review and signature is the Stormwater Management/BMP Facilities Agreement between the Bullitt County School District Finance Corporation and Bullitt County, Kentucky. This agreement outlines the responsibilities for maintaining on-site stormwater management and Best Management Practices (BMP) facilities associated with upcoming property development. As part of this process, the Bullitt County School District Finance Corporation will serve as the designated landowner representative for Bullitt County Public Schools. The Finance Corporation will execute the agreement first, after which Bullitt County will sign as the city agency. This ensures that all parties involved-the Finance Corporation, Bullitt County, and BCPS-are aligned in fulfilling the maintenance and compliance requirements set forth in the agreement. The purpose of this document is to formally establish ongoing maintenance standards for stormwater facilities to protect public health, safety, and welfare while meeting environmental regulations. It also outlines procedures for inspection, reporting, and corrective actions should maintenance issues arise.

It was recommended by the General Contractor (EH) that the ceiling tile be replaced entirely. The ceilings were replaced in 2019 following an Energy Savings Contract with Trane. Since that time, ongoing roof leaks prior to the start of construction and the HVAC System not being operational during construction have caused the ceiling tiles to break down. Ceiling grid remains in place where possible. In addition to tile replacement, ceiling tile and grid is being replaced in three classrooms where installation of new hydronic piping would not allow ceilings to remain in place. This recommendation was discussed with the Director of Facilities and Architect during the bi-weekly progress meeting, and all agreed it was needed to yield the best result. I recommend approval of this request.

The Google Workspace for Education for our district is up for renewal. Google Workspace for
Education has been a valuable tool for schools and district departments. It offers benefits like

grading work. It also enables flexible, accessible learning from anywhere. The cost to renew is
$60,316.50, which works out to be a little less than $5 per student. The renewal agreement is

Lebanon Junction Elementary School is requesting approval to install a concrete pad on the playground as the base of a Gaga Pit. They were granted board approval this past spring to install a Gaga Pit but the installation was put on hold due to the Eagle Scout's availability. They now have a parent whose company, Ernst Concrete, wants to donate the concrete and Argenbright Dirt Works will donate the labor to install a concrete pad and Gaga Pit. The funding of the concrete pad is through the donations of material and labor from the companies listed above. The materials for the Gaga Pit itself, which were approved in Spring 2025, are being purchased through Fund 22. I recommend approval of this request.

We’ve received our first KETS Offer for FY25. The first offer is for $134,961, which divides up to almost $11 per student. Once we get the final offer of assistance, this will total about $21 per student. The final total should be around $250,000, which the district matches each year. I ask that we preemptively approve all offers now to eliminate the need for further approval of the remaining offers, thus reducing the time to get the amount in our accounts. Historically, we choose to escrow the amount for up to three years. The official letter from the Office of Educational Technology is attached. Our department will continue to use these funds to provide student and teacher devices, data center hardware, networking hardware, and other instructional-related technologies. I appreciate your time and consideration

BCPS has decided not to demo and remove the house on the Ellis Cook property located behind Eastside Middle School, previously declared surplus on the October 20, 2025 board meeting. BCPS will instead repurpose it to support the district's McKinney-Vento program. The property will serve as a home office base facility to coordinate services and distribute essential supplies to students and families in need, providing critical support to those experiencing housing instability. The community and local businesses have rallied together to help spruce up this site, creating a welcoming and supportive space for families in need. Preserving this property allows us to continue serving with compassion and purpose, ensuring every student and family feels seen, supported, and valued.

I recommend approval of this request.

Board Policy 10.4, Advertising in the Schools, outlines the standards and procedures for commercial and community advertising within district schools. The policy establishes clear definitions, approval processes, and limitations to ensure that all advertising aligns with the educational mission of the district and remains appropriate for students. The current policy has been reviewed and revised to reflect updated communication practices, and clarify the roles of district administration, principals, and school-affiliated support groups such as PTAs, PTOs, and Booster Clubs in approving and managing advertising activities. The revisions to Policy 10.4 provide clearer definitions and a more cohesive structure for advertising procedures within the district. These revisions are designed to protect instructional time and preserve the integrity of the educational environment while supporting positive relationships between schools and community organizations. The changes also promote transparency and consistency in the approval process for advertising and solicitation, ensuring that all practices comply with legal requirements and district standards. This revision has been reviewed by Dinsmore & Shohl, Inc. and by KSBA. This request is for approval of the 1st reading of revised Policy 10.4.

The HB 190 - Plan on Advanced Coursework (Grades 4–12) is submitted for formal approval to ensure immediate compliance with HB 190 (2025) by December 1, 2025. This strategy transforms our process from nomination to a proactive, data-driven framework, enabling automatic enrollment for students who demonstrate readiness. Placement is based on objective criteria, including a Distinguished State Assessment rating, consistent universal screener performance, or Gifted and Talented (GT) identification. By utilizing these clear, multiple measures and committing to an annual review of enrollment data by student group, the plan guarantees equitable representation and fosters high academic achievement across the district. Approval is requested for HB 190 Plan on Advanced Coursework (Grades 4-12).

On Monday, October 27th, I convened a committee of three Principal Representatives to develop a comprehensive draft of our EHO policy. Our discussion was highly productive, focusing on various stakeholder concerns. We believe the attached EHO DRAFT effectively addresses these concerns and is now ready for your review and approval.

• The Principals who served on this development committee were:
• Jason Bargary, Shepherdsville Elementary School
• Chase Goff, Bernheim Middle School
• Kristi Lynch, North Bullitt High School

We are confident that these proposed changes will significantly benefit our students, enhance community support, and offer greater flexibility to families needing access to our schools. I respectfully request that the Board review and discuss these changes and consider their formal adoption. For comparative purposes, I have included a copy of our current EHO Policy.
