CONSIDER AND POSSIBLY TAKE ACTION TO CALL FOR AN EXECUTIVE SESSION PURSUANT TO A.R.S. §38-431.03(A)(3) TO CONSULT WITH OR RECEIVE LEGAL ADVICE FROM THE DISTRICT'S LEGAL COUNSEL CONCERNING SERVICES PROVIDED BY THE ARIZONA SCHOOL BOARDS ASSOCIATION TO THE DISTRICT, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMTED TO, ASBA POLICY SERVICES -AGENDA ITEM #6

A motion was made by James Kaltenbach and seconded by Charlie Ellis to go into Executive Session. Michael Hutchinson explained to Chairman Straka that he wanted to discuss this agenda item before voting to go into Executive Session because of the vagueness of the description of "receiving legal" advice in the agenda wording. It was his understanding that the Governing Board was going to discuss effectiveness or cost of West-MEC's relationship with Arizona School Boards Association (ASBA). He wanted to make sure that the Governing Board was going to receive confidential legal advice in Executive Session, and that they were not going to discuss items in Executive Session that should be discussed in public.

Legal Counsel, Susan Segal, replied that she has served under Arizona Attorney Generals Bob Corbin and Terry Goddard and takes Open Meeting laws seriously. She has even given trainings in this area. Concerning the Executive Session, she explained that the Governing

June 10, 2021

Board would just be receiving legal advice, not discussing merits of the underlying topic, nor pros, nor cons of belonging to the ASBA. The "legal advice" agenda item was drafted by her and it will be legal advice as to some of the legal issues that may arise.

Peter Pingerelli requested that the Call to the Public item related to this item #6 be done before Executive Session.

Legal Counsel, Susan Segal, stated that it was the Chairs' prerogative whether the Call to the Public for this item #6 was before or after Executive Session.

Diane Douglas spoke to this specific Call to the Public and stated that according to the wording of Item #6 on the agenda, the purpose of the Executive Session was to receive advice from the District's Legal Counsel concerning services provided by the Arizona School Boards Association to the District. She felt since there was no legal contract that was broken, there were no legal ramifications, so it would be unlawful to have an Executive Session. All discussion should be done in public.

James Kaltenbach made a motion to call for an Executive Session pursuant to A.R.S. §38-43 l .03(A)(3) to consult with or receive legal advice from the District' s Legal Counsel concerning services provided by the ASBA to the District, including, but not limited to, ASBA Policy Services.

• Charlie Ellis did not see why this topic needed to be discussed behind closed doors, unless it was clarity.

• James Kaltenbach understood that it was legal advice the Governing Board was going to receive in Executive Session.

• Susan Segal stated that the Executive Session was to discuss legal issues with regard to membership in ASBA. If a matter is spoken about in public, there is a legal aspect waiver of the attorney-client privilege on the issue of legal advice with regards to membership of ASBA. The legal issue is the ramification discontinuation of membership in ASBA on existing West-MEC policies.

• Peter Pingerelli asked why wasn't the issue specified in the agenda and felt the Governing Board had not been given enough information? Susan Segal replied that she felt the wording was sufficient in that it talks about ASBA services, policy services. The scope of the advice will be the copyright issue.

• Michael Hutchinson felt that discussing the "cost" in public is perfectly fine.

Governing Board Secretary, Dee Markham, took a roll call vote to go into Executive Session: Frank Straka-yes, Peter Pingerelli-pass, James Kaltenbach-yes, Charlie Ellis-yes, Barbara Wyllie-no, Michael Hutchinson-no, Peter Pingerelli-110. The motion failed with a 3-3 vote.

CONSIDERATION OF A MOTION TO RETURN TO REGULAR SESSION - AGENDA ITEM#7 This item did not occur because Executive Session did not take place.

CONSIDER AND POSSIBLY TAKE ACTION TO PARTICIPATE IN AND/OR BELONG TO ARIZONA SCHOOL BOARDS ASSOCIATION - AGENDA ITEM #8 Frank Straka called on the following people to address the Governing Board in the Call to the Public:

Linda Busam stated that she was in agreement for West-MEC to terminate their contract with ASBA. She felt that ASBA cared more for creating social justice warriors than for education. She felt that ASBA offered nothing that West-MEC could not do for itself.

Heather Rooks stated that she was in agreement for West-MEC to terminate their contract with ASBA. She has seen videos and workshops and news about ASBA and felt the speakers should focus on character of students and that student uplifting should matter more than the color of their skin.

Questions and Comments from the Governing Board/Legal Counsel/Staff:

• Legal Counsel, Susan Segal, stated that Gust Rosenfeld represents approximately 80% of the School Boards in Arizona and is aware of the policies they have adopted which are very comprehensive. Every year after the legislature adjourns, Policy Advisories are sent out by ASBA and School Boards are free to adopt/change/not adopt these policies. At times the Attorney General also weighs in on education issues. True, all the policies can be created in-house, and if relations were severed, all current policies would need to be rewritten because they are copyrighted by A.SBA. All these re-created policies would also have to be adopted again by the Governing Board. Legal Counsel would need to be hired not only to do this, but for future policies to be created. Legal Counsel must keep abreast of State and Federal laws and mandates; and will be exposed to new legislation daily. There are 12 sections to the current policy books: Foundations and Basic Commitment, Board Governance and Operations, General School Administration, Fiscal Management, Support Services, Facilities Development, Personnel, Meet and Confer, Instruction, Students, School-Community Relations, and Education Agency Relations.

• I would like to discuss the value of the policies. I would rather have a local policy with our input. The easiest way is not always the best way. (Michael Hutchinson)

• The policies that West-MEC has are ones that the Board Members have looked at and adopted. If we are responsible Board Members, we take note. If there is something

June 10, 2021

missing in the policy, it is our fault, not ASBA. Policies are about due process. (James Kaltenbach)

• Not all school districts use the ASBA Policy Service. EVIT does not subscribe, do they? (Peter Pingerelli): EVIT does have an in-house Attorney and they do subscribe to the ASBA Policy Service. (Susan Segal)

I do go through the policies and have noticed many have not changed over the last decade and do not pertain to West-MEC. (Peter Pingerelli) True, some categories are used more often than others. If the Governing Board decides not to use the policy service ASBA offers, they would need to hire an attorney and put the policies in their own words. Dysart previously used a service out of Chicago, but now they use ASBA. Tucson Unified may also have a different system. If you use a service, it is extremely necessary that this service knows the Arizona law. (Susan Segal)

• I assume, 20% of a copyrighted document must be different? (Frank Straka) This information will need to be obtained.

• Do we pay for anything other than ASBA Policy Service? (Barbara Wyllie) West-MEC pays a membership fee to be a part of ASBA; you have to be a member of ASBA to be a part of the Policy Services. Information was provided to the Board members.

• When we have accusatory nature like what is now going on here against Arizona School Boards Association, why would we not want to hear from them so they could respond to the accusations? ASBA does provide some good services. I don't see what benefit we would have by not using their services. (Jim Migliorino) Mr. Straka did speak to the ASBA, and after talking with them, it was decided that their presence was not needed at the meeting.

• Michael Hutchinson read several social media posts about those who have been involved in ASBA events/guest speakers who made derogatory comments about the current issues regarding social justice. He felt this is who the ASBA brought in to influence Governing Board Members and policy and that we have no higher duty than to protect our children from this. Taxpayers should not be supporting this. If you wish to have the entire list of tweet comments, please contact Governing Board Secretary, Dee Markham at the WestMEC office.

• We have funds that are not from taxpayers, don't we? Can we use non-taxpayer funds to purchase membership to use policy services? (Frank Straka) Yes

• The ASBA Equity Conference had an invited speaker. I received the links that I will be reading from a constituent about what was said at this conference by the speaker. These comments are antithetical to what we do at West-MEC. I am not here to support an organization that degrades others. A.R.S. § 15-111 states that the Legislature finds and declares that public school pupils should be taught to treat and value each other as individuals and not be taught to resent other races or classes of people. We, as elected Governing Board Members have taken an oath to support the constitution of Arizona and this statute is a part of that. (Peter Pingerelli) If you wish to have the entire list of comments, please contact Governing Board Secretary, Dee Markham at the West-MEC office.

• I would hate to know that we live in the country where we can only listen to one side of the argument. I agree that the comments Michael Hutchinson and Peter Pingerelli read

June 10, 2021

are appalling. I did not hear that ASBA sanctioned these comments, I just heard that it was insinuated. (Jim Migliorino)

• How many policies would we have to review and who would do it? How much would it cost? How much time would it take? (Frank Straka) This would take some time to accomplish because you have to know what the law is, federal and state. (Susan Segal)

• Awhile back, I asked why we were members of ASBA. They wanted to teach me how to be a School Board Member and that did not sit well with me. I want nothing to do with the organization. I love West-MEC and its outstanding programs, but I do not like the direction ASBA is going. (Barbara Wyllie)

Jim Migliorino made a motion to extend our relationship with ASBA. James Kaltenbach seconded the motion.

• On an average yearly basis, ASBA has 4 staff members, 2 full time and 2 half time, plus a lawyer who works on policy. This is approximately 3000 hours every year reviewing policy. Our world is getting more and more contentious and every time the legislature passes a bill, we have to make sure it does not impact us. You have to have a lawyer to look at the ramifications. Every single piece of legislation, court rulings, federal court rulings have to be reviewed in case the ruling deals with the district, otherwise we are in violation. If we were to do this on our own, it would take close to $1,000,000. We can spend $24,000 or $1,000,000. This does not even calculate the cost to redo our policies because of copyright laws. Conservatism is based on fiscal responsibility and rational thought, and leaving ASBA is not being fiscally responsible to our taxpayers. We don't give people pay raises, but we are going to throw away a million dollars? I don't agree with everything ASBA does or says, and never once has ASBA influenced our students unless we are doing it. (James Kaltenbach)

• Throwing away $1 ,000,000 is a great concern to me. It appears there are other providers. I do not like that the decision has to be made this evening. If you are concerned, get involved. I would like to postpone this decision for another date because we do not have a representative to respond to the comments. We need more information for this decision. What is our alternative source? How long are you going to give the staff to research this? ( Charlie Ellis)

Jim Migliorino withdrew his motion.

Charlie Ellis made a substitute motion to postpone the decision to keep or deny our membership with ASBA for 2 months in order to have an informed decision with alternative source availability. James Kaltenbach seconded the motion.

Mike Hutchinson would like to address the cost issue of policy making and how long it would take to address the copyright policies.

Peter Pingerelli made a request to amend the motion to include a letter to ASBA signed from each Governing Board Member expressing the deep concerns with ASBA sponsored events. Susan Segal stated that cannot be done with Open Meeting Law because another meeting would have to be held. The meeting is being televised to ASBA and meeting comments will be

June 10, 2021

forwarded. ASBA staff will be at the Governing Board Meeting when this item is presented again. Peter Pingerelli withdrew his request.

Governing Board Secretary, Dee Markham, took a roll call vote: Peter Pingerelli-pass, Barbara Wyllie-no, Mike Hutchinson-no, Charlie Ellis-yes, Jim Migliorino-yes, Frank Straka-yes, James Kaltenbach-yes, Peter Pingerelli-no. The motion passed with a 4-3 vote. This section ended at 6:32pm.
