BOARD SUMMARY
Meeting date: May 14, 2013
Assistant Superintendent Curriculum & Instruction Report
Executive Summary
Review of Proposal from North Country Mobile Health Clinic
At the April 9, 2013 Governing Board meeting the North Country Mobile Health Clinic presented a
request to change location of the clinic from the present elementary locations (Killip, Kinsey, Thomas) to
middle school and high school locations. The board, at this time, requested the staff from the NCMHC
to address some additional issues as well as proposal options.
1. With the expansion of the services of the mobile clinic, is this in alignment of FUSD needs? 2. The board would like to have feedback on the “satisfaction” of services that has been provided by
the clinic. 3. What is the business plan of the clinic – are you reaching out to other partnerships? 4. What kind of outreach efforts has the clinic done at the school sites? 5. What is the justification for leaving the elementary sites? 6. Expand on the subject matter of educational materials and services are planned at the new sites
(i.e. reproductive health) 7. What’s not working for NC mobile clinic? 8. The board is requesting feedback from school nurses at the present site. 9. Address the concern that a school nurse communicated that she had concerns about sending
students to the clinic that could not pay. 10. What makes sense for kids?

NCHC Mobile Unit Presentation Summary 5/14/13
Goals:
Improve access to care for students, particularly underserved populations.
Build trusting relationships with students, parents, and school personnel to positively influence
children’s health through care of acute illness and chronic disease and increased identification and
attention to risky behaviors.
Develop a sustainable school-based health model to serve students and families.
Proposed Options
Establishing a more centralized location for all FUSD schools with an emphasis on secondary school
locations will provide better accessibility for students that historically utilize SBHC more often.
I. MEMS, CHS, CNS/TAPP
II. MEMS, Sinagua, CNS/TAPP
III. CHS, CNS/TAPP, An elementary school
Why the proposed change
Increase mobile clinic use by being available to a larger student population.
Increase availability to secondary age students who are known to have more difficulties
accessing care and more risk behaviors that will benefit from on-site services and closer
provider-student relationships.
Primary age students usually access care by coming to the unit with a parent whereas older
students tend to come on their own. The proposed location of the unit recognizes this
distinction to maximize availability to both groups.
Low visit numbers and unsustainable finances with the current service locations.
Reproductive Health
Abstinence will always be promoted.
No child is seen in a school based health center without a signed parental consent form on file.
We will follow the Board’s directive on whether to provide direct family planning services.

Operations and Support Services Board Meeting
May 14, 2013
Support Services:
I visited a few school districts and have talked to other administrators about GCA
custodial services. However, at this time with the uncertainty of the new health care laws, I
suggest that we hold off until next spring to make a decision.
Sinagua Middle School Solar: Everything is complete except the final commission by the APS
solar team.
Food Services: A report from Nancy Maestas on the additional activities her team covered
during the month of April and the end of the year barbeque schedule for each school are
included.

BOARD SUMMARY MEETING DATE: MAY 14, 2013 NAME CHANGE FOR CHRISTENSEN NEW START SCHOOL EXECUTIVE SUMMARY For many years Project New Start served as an alternative pathway for FUSD students; essentially, it served as the district’s alternative “program” which provided educational programming to students who were enrolled in all of FUSD’s high schools. Throughout the 2011-2012 academic year New Start and district administrators worked with the Arizona Department of Education in pursuit of an official alternative “school” designation for New Start. On July 1, 2012, New Start officially became one of Arizona’s alternative schools and the FUSD Governing Board approved a name change from “Project New Start” to “Christensen New Start School”. The year concluded with New Start holding its first ever commencement exercises. No longer a “program” and with its official “school” designation formalized by the Arizona Department of Education, the principal and staff at New Start have undertaken a number of school improvement initiatives during the 2012-2013 school year. The staff has participated in numerous professional development trainings, course offerings have been expanded, and TAPP students have been integrated into the school. Earlier this month, Mr. Koenker filed the standard application and fee as the initial step in pursuing accreditation from the North Central Association’s Commission on Accreditation and School Improvement (NCA CASI). This is the same accreditation that is currently held by Coconino High School and Flagstaff High School. With that accreditation process about to begin Mr. Koenker, his staff, students and site council believe it is an appropriate time to recommend a final name change. Their recommendation is to name their school Summit High School. It is their belief that this name change will not only enhance their pursuit of this distinguished accreditation but will also aid in their continuing efforts to change and embellish their image within the district and throughout the community. District Policy F-1400 references the naming and renaming of facilities which does not apply here as there is no recommendation to change the name of the facility. The recommendation is to re-name the school that is currently housed within the Christensen facility. RECOMMENDED ACTION: District administration recommends approval of changing the name of Christensen New Start School to Summit High School.

NOTIFICATION OF EMERGENCY PROCUREMENTS
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Pursuant to State Board of Education, Procurement Codes R7-2-1056 & R7-2-1057,
District officials must provide a report to the Governing Board regarding any emergency
procurement.
As defined by R7-2-1056, an emergency condition is one that creates an immediate and
serious need for materials, services or construction that cannot be met through normal
procurement methods and seriously threatens the functioning of the school district, the
preservation or protection of property of the public health, welfare or safety.
The following situation occurred:
On April 05, 2013, the maintenance department received a call that sewage was
backing up from the clean outs at DeMiguel Elementary. It was determined that
excavation of the site would have to be performed so that the plumbers could have
access to the pipes in order to clean them. Because of the importance and
expediency required, Pat Loescher Concrete was directed to excavate the site in
preparation for the plumbers, and while doing so, prepare the site for future
concrete covers. The covers were then installed once the repairs were completed.
Pat Loescher Concrete was chosen as the vendor selected based upon past
performance with the District and their availability to begin work immediately.
Please see the attached Emergency Procurement Justification Form for the incident.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
R7-2-1057 only requires that the Board be informed of the emergency procurement. No
action is required.
