4. Discussion and Possible Action Regarding the Approval of Mater Academy of Nevada’s Pre-Kindergarten Agreement with the State Public Charter Authority for the 2016/2017 School Year.

Principal Fairless addressed the Board and reported that she had been working with Nya Berry of the

NSPCSA to provide additional pre-kindergarten seats, adding that there was not enough space on the Mater campus to accommodate the number of students they wanted to include. Principal Fairless stated that that they had been working with Kids Learning Path as a supplemental site, explaining that students who gave up their seat on the waitlist to attend the alternative site would not be able to be admitted to Mater Academy during the school year, but would retain their priority for kindergarten enrollment. Principal Fairless reported that the partnership would increase the number of pre-kindergarten students from 60-70 to 100-110 students. Discussion took place regarding the need for expansion of the program and the interventions it offered. Principal Fairless explained that they would not be involved in the running of the additional facility as it was already licensed and utilized the same models required by the State, stating that they would hire the teachers (as Mater staff) and facilitate the reimbursement process. Member Moulton referred to page 15 of the support materials: “8% of funded seats must be filled with children who have an individualized Education Plan” and inquired as to how they would identify the children needing IEPs. Principal Fairless explained that a typical cross section of students included approximately 10 percent with IEPs, adding that they had already identified at least 8 percent through assessments and referrals from Child Find, Children’s Cabinet, and other types of screening. Discussion took place regarding hiring qualified teachers for the program, with Principal Fairless noting that she had already located the teachers.

Member Jasso referred to pages 13-14, “SPCSA Recourse in the Event of Subrecipient’s Failure to

Perform,” inquiring as to what type of recourse they were opening themselves up to if the program did not succeed. Nya Berry addressed the Board and explained that there were no penalties, but that the award might be adjusted if enrollment fell below expectation, adding that the grantee had confidence in Mater, as it had been a top performing program thus far.

Member Melendrez inquired as to which department within the Nevada Department of Education they

would be working with. Principal Fairless explained that it was a federal grant, but they would be partnering with the State Public Charter School Authority. Member Melendrez referred to page 14 of the support materials: Section III Modifications: “This Memorandum of Agreement may be amended only by written agreement signed by each of the parties involved, in consultation with the Nevada Department of Education.” Ms. Berry explained that the agreement fell under the Office of Early Learning with the Nevada Department of Education.

Member Moulton moved to approve the Mater Academy of Nevada’s Pre-kindergarten

Agreement with the State Public Charter School Authority for the 2016/2017 school year. Member Jasso seconded the motion and the Board voted unanimously to approve.

MINUTES of the meeting of the

BOARD OF DIRECTORS of MATER ACADEMY OF NEVADA August 15, 2016

The Board of Directors of Mater Academy of Nevada held a public meeting on August 15, 2016

at 4:30 p.m. at 3445 Mountain Vista St., Las Vegas, Nevada 89121.

1. Call to order and roll call.

Board Chair Sheila Moulton called the meeting to order at 4:35 p.m. with a quorum present. In attendance were Board Members Sheila Moulton, Dan Triana, Ricardo Jasso, Robert Anderson (via telephone), Eva Melendrez (4:40 via telephone) and Raquel Lopez (6:00).

Board Member Lisa Satory was not present for the meeting.

Also present were Principal Renee Fairless and Academica Nevada Representatives Colin Bringhurst, Trevor Goodsell, Rebecca Fitzgerald, Carlos Segrera, Kristie Fleisher, and Arthur Ziev (via telephone).

2. Public comments and discussion.

Sarah Janson addressed the Board and shared student growth data, noting they had started with 20 middle school students and now, two years later, there were 270 middle school students. Ms. Janson reported that the students entering seventh grade had shown 2.12 years growth in reading and 2.0 years growth in math since fifth grade, which was right on track. Ms. Janson noted that the eighth graders had shown 2.33 years growth in reading and 1.8 years in math in the two year period.

Ms. Janson reported on the results of students who had retaken sixth grade math during the summer,

noting that the students showed one year of growth over the month of July, adding that all but one student had passed. Ms. Janson reported that the students who retook seventh grade math showed 8.5 months of growth. Ms. Janson stated that the students who participated in the summer classes were motivated to be there and had enthusiastically participated.

Principal Fairless addressed the Board and introduced Finance/Grants Manager, Jenny Price and

Cafeteria Manager, Guadalupe Anzorena. 3. Review and approval of minutes for the June 2, 2016 Board Meeting.

Member Triana moved to approve the minutes from the June 2, 2016 Board meeting. Member

Jasso seconded the motion, and the Board voted unanimously to approve.

4. Review of Schools Financial Performance.

Carlos Segrera addressed the Board, referring them to the Financial Summary in the support materials. Mr. Segrera reported a surplus of $247,587.00, noting that the State had previously overfunded them and they had conservatively adjusted off $60,000.00. Trevor Goodsell addressed the Board and reported that

7

2

they were working with the State to reconcile the numbers and would have a final end-of-year true-up by August 31. Mr. Segrera reported that they had budgeted a surplus of $373,164.00 for a variance of $125,577.00 to the down side. Mr. Segrera noted that they were underfunded for Special Education (SPED) and full-day kindergarten by approximately $70,000.00. Mr. Segrera outlined the items that were under budget, including SPED Contracted Services, Utilities, (due to the building not being occupied for the first month and a half of the fiscal year), Insurance, and other miscellaneous categories. Mr. Segrera detailed expenses that were unbudgeted, including Cash and Curriculum, Retention/Holiday Bonuses, and Marketing. Mr. Segrera explained that the Retention/Holiday bonuses were Board Approved, but not budgeted, due to the fact that the budget had been submitted before the bonuses were set and approved. Member Moulton requested that the bonuses be included in the budget for the current year. Mr. Segrera specified items that were over budget to include National School Lunch Program, Salaries and Benefits, and Licensed Substitute Teachers (due to more teachers taking paid time off). Mr. Segrera stated that they had reviewed the Salaries and Benefits overage, noting that they had originally budgeted for three SPED teachers and had come to realize that they needed four for the number of students in need of services, as well as three additional cafeteria employees for the National School Lunch program. Mr. Segrera stated that they had also paid part of the Title I Manager’s salary out of the operating account. Mr. Segrera noted that the additional staff members had been included in the budget for the new year.

Member Moulton commented that it hurt kids for their teachers to not be in the classrooms, adding

that they needed to encourage teachers to be in the classroom more. Principal Renee Fairless addressed the Board, noting that part of the problem was that PTO (paid time off) was one of their recruiting tools, adding that she had started to communicate the issue of needing to use PTO days more responsibly. Principal Fairless suggested changing the policy so that PTO days were accrued rather than granted at the outset. Discussion took place regarding the financial and educational cost of teachers taking large amounts of PTO as vacation time.

Mr. Segrera referred the Board to the Balance Sheet and noted that it showed a negative cash balance,

explaining that there had been grant money that needed to be spent by June 30, prompting them to spend between $200,000.00 and $300,000.00 on June 29 and 30 for curriculum, technology, etc. Mr. Goodsell noted that there was over $500,000.00 in Accounts Receivable from grants that would more than offset the cash they had spent, describing it as an accounting situation and adding that the bank account never actually reached zero. Principal Fairless acknowledged that the grant reimbursement cycle sometimes caused cash flow issues, noting that they had been promised a 21-day turn around for the upcoming year.

Member Anderson asked whether the negative cash balance would affect the audit. Mr. Goodsell

explained that it would not affect the audit, as assets would stay high because there would be offsetting accounts receivables, adding that they actually had cash in the bank. Member Anderson asked when they anticipated receiving the reimbursements. Mr. Goodsell stated that much of it had already come through. Member Anderson stated that his review of the financials showed them to be in good shape overall, with a 4.78 percent bottom-line profit, which was close to their target of 5 percent.

5. Review and Approval of the Lease for the Mater Academy Bonanza Campus.

Arthur Ziev addressed the Board and summarized the lease, stating that it was almost identical to the lease for Mater Mountain Vista. Mr. Ziev noted that Mater Academy of Nevada was listed as the tenant, with Turner Agassi Special Purpose Corporation, LLC was the landlord for the property on the corner of Marion and Bonanza. Mr. Ziev described the building to be 50,000 square feet, noting that it would include four pre-kindergarten rooms and four kindergarten rooms. Mr. Ziev stated that the lease would be a 30

8

3

year lease, triple net (lessor would be responsible for all repairs and maintenance and would have the benefit of all warranties on any installed equipment), and would commence July 1-June 30. Mr. Ziev noted that any alterations to the building would have to be approved by the landlord. Mr. Ziev stated that the lease payments would escalate over time on the assumption of increasing enrollment, and would be based on the following estimated enrollment (not including pre-kindergarten students):

• Year One – 540 students • Year Two – 675 students • Year Three – 840 students • Year Four – 900 students • Year Five and every year thereafter – 960 students

Mr. Ziev explained that the lease payments would escalate as a percentage of revenues (assuming 95

percent enrollment) as follows: • Year One – 12 percent of revenues • Year Two – 14.7 percent of revenues • Gradually increasing until year six, at which time it would be 18 percent of revenues if the

building had not been purchased.

Mr. Ziev explained that the lease payment would be adjusted after the project had been completed, thus if the project came in below budget, the lease payment would drop in the fifth and sixth year and thereafter. Mr. Ziev added that there was a large contingency built into the estimates so the project would not exceed expected costs. Mr. Ziev stated that the lease included a purchase option, allowing purchase of the facility for 14.4 million dollars, in the fourth year or 14.5 million dollars in the fifth year.

Member Anderson referred to the Base Rent Schedule in the support materials, noting the 27 percent

increase in rent each year, noting that his understanding was that actual rent would be based on the actual cost of the building and also whether they decided to buy the building. Mr. Ziev confirmed that the lease payments increased significantly in the first five years, explaining that during the first four years, they would be getting the benefit of deferred rent, which then shows up in the higher rates after year five. Mr. Ziev noted that the annual escalator after year six was 2.5 percent, which was better than the usual 3 percent. Mr. Goodsell pointed out that enrollment would be increasing during those years as well, adding that cost as a percentage of revenue was not increasing very much. Mr. Ziev referred to the following page (page 100) in the support materials, which showed an alternate number for year one, explaining that if enrollment was higher than anticipated, they had the option to increase payments in the first four years, thereby reducing the purchase price.

Member Triana noted the 10 year warranty on the roof and asked if there was an option for an extended

warranty and how repairs would be covered after the warranty period. Mr. Ziev replied that roof warranties were based on the materials used, with no extended option.

Member Moulton inquired as to the differences between the proposed lease and the one they had

signed for the existing campus. Mr. Ziev replied that the terms were identical, noting the difference to be that the Mater Mountain Vista lease was funded by Turner Agassi Fund 1, whereas the proposed lease would be funded by Turner Agassi Fund 2. Mr. Ziev stated that Academica’s attorneys and outside counsel had reviewed, revised, and approved the contract. Member Moulton asked Mr. Ziev if he thought the same builder would be used, to which Mr. Ziev answered in the affirmative.

Member Jasso moved to approve the lease for the Mater Academy Bonanza campus. Member Triana seconded the motion and the Board voted unanimously to approve.

6. Review and Approval of Mater Academy of Nevada’s Wellness Policy.

Principal Fairless explained that approval of the Wellness Policy was a requirement by the Nevada

Department of Agriculture (NDA) for participation in the National School Lunch Program (NSLP). Principal Fairless stated that they were planning to make some additional changes to the policy based on grants they had received. Member Jasso asked about the NDA approval process. Principal Fairless explained that the policy would be submitted for NDA changes and approval before being brought to the Board for approval. Discussion took place regarding NDA oversight, including detailed requirements and campus visits and audits. Principal Fairless noted that Mater Academy was the first charter school to participate in NSLP on such a large scale, adding that they were being held up as a model for how it should be done.

Member Triana moved to approve the Mater Academy of Nevada Wellness Policy. Member

Anderson seconded the motion and the Board voted unanimously to approve. 7. Discussion and Possible Action Regarding Hiring of National School Lunch Program Vendor

for Mater Academy, Based on Bids Received from (For Possible Action.): A. CCSD Food Services; B. LaBella’s Pizzeria, Inc.; and C. Three Square

Principal Fairless briefly described the selection process, including the formation of a selection

committee and the use of an approved rubric. Principal Fairless stated that CCSD scored the highest on the rubric, and was thus the choice vendor. Becca Fitzgerald addressed the Board and further explained the bidding and selection process and NDA’s participation. Principal Fairless stated that 91 percent of their population qualified for Free and Reduced Lunch, explaining that they provided all meals for no charge and internalized the losses associated with those who did not qualify for reimbursement. Ms. Fitzgerald stated that they would make $1.09 per reimbursable meal, which would offset costs associated with those who were not eligible for reimbursement. Ms. Fitzgerald described the Community Eligibility program, which allowed the school to serve free lunches to all students without requiring applications. Principal Fairless stated that Three Square had been a tremendous support, noting that she had spoken to them and they were interested in continuing their relationship and planned to submit a bid the following year for NSLP.

Member Melendrez stated that CCSD had recently done presentations of their lunch products at parent

meetings, adding that she was pleased with the new choices being offered and with the taste of the food. Member Melendrez noted that she thought the students would be pleased with the lunches they offered.

Colin Bringhurst addressed the Board, stating that their vendor choice would still be subject to NDA approval and recommended approving a second choice as a contingency in the event their first choice was not approved.

Member Triana moved to approve CCSD Food Services as the National School Lunch provider,

with Three Square as a second choice if the Nevada Department of Agriculture did not approve their first choice. Member Jasso seconded the motion and the Board voted unanimously to approve.

8. Discussion and Possible Action Regarding the Acceptance of the Read by 3 Grant Awarded to Mater Academy of Nevada for the 2016/2017 School year.

Member Jasso moved to approve the acceptance of the College & Career Readiness Grant for

the 2016/2017 school year. Member Triana seconded the motion and the Board voted unanimously to approve.

10. Discussion and Possible Action Approving the Acceptance of 1 Social Worker or Other Mental Health Workers’ Positions Awarded to Mater Academy of Nevada Under the Social Workers in Schools Grant for the 2016/2017 School Year and the Approval of the UNLV Intern Contract.

Principal Fairless stated that they had hired a master level licensed social worker with the funds

received the previous year. Principal Fairless reported that the current grant provided $62,000.00, at $42.50 per hour for 184 days, adding that she had negotiated with the Pre-Kindergarten program to provide benefits for the position, as the social worker would be working closely with those students as well. Principal Fairless stated that the social worker had set up an internship program with UNLV to provide two student interns and also had close relationships with several community service organizations and was able to connect the families to those services.

Mr. Bringhurst stated that there were some problems with the contract with UNLV, including the three

year duration as compared to the one-year duration of the grant, as well as the requirement that they carry medical malpractice insurance and a $2 million aggregate insurance policy. Principal Fairless stated that they would renegotiate with UNLV regarding those issues.

Member Moulton asked for more information regarding the internships. Principal Fairless explained

that the interns would be UNLV students who needed intern hours. Ms. Fitzgerald stated that the interns would provide support to teachers and could do group counseling with students, adding that any individual or clinical counseling would have to be referred out.

Principal Fairless stated that they had recently been awarded $414,986.79 to fund eleven positions, including an EL coordinator, a literacy lab coordinator, instructional assistants, a nurse, and reflective practice substitutes.

Principal Fairless reported that Nya Berry of the State Public School Charter Authority had put the

budget together in order to add two additional classes. Principal Fairless described the process of registering the additional pre-kindergarten students so that they were compliant with state lottery laws, which had additional facets due to the fact that they were federally sponsored students but not yet students of Mater Academy. Principal Fairless stated that once all students had been accepted according to regulation, she would be given a budget of $976,000.00.

Kristie Fleisher addressed the Board and reported that Nya Berry had forwarded 22 applications for the off-site students who had applied. Ms. Fleisher explained the lottery process and the compliance issues facing them regarding the additional pre-kindergarten students and reported that she had run the lottery according to all laws and had a wait list of 83 students, noting that all applicants had to qualify based on income in order to be compliant with the grant.

Member Triana asked Principal Fairless what issue she saw as the most important to improve and what she saw as her most important strength. Principal Fairless replied that she felt she was a strong communicator, noting that she had not had time to adequately communicate with teachers and planned to improve teacher communication, including more classroom observation time. Member Melendrez recommended giving parents opportunities for feedback at school events throughout the year. Member Anderson expressed his support of Principal Fairless, noting that he enjoyed her stories and appreciated her responsive style of leadership. Discussion took place regarding increasing communication through the use of Facebook and the Infinite Campus app, as well as the posting of board meetings. Member Jasso noted that the majority of the survey results were positive.

year early in order to make room for Professional Development Days and to be able to take the week of Thanksgiving off.

Please describe this schools' challenges serving breakfast after the bell.

Mater Academy has several challenges for serving breakfast after the bell. Specifically, Mater needs more

refrigeration space as well as other supplies to enhance classroom delivery.

Please summarize how Breakfast after the bell will be implemented including how the requested grant

funds will be used.

Mater will implement breakfast after the bell. For grades Pre-K-5, breakfast will be delivered to the

classroom. For grades 6-8, Mater will facilitate a grab and go breakfast. Mater is requesting funding for an

additional milk cooler and other supplies needed to facilitate the increased participation as Mater is CEP.
