ABBEY MILLS WAS NOMINATED [LAUGHTER]
WHEN DID WE START? WE STARTED IN JULY.
>> JUNE. LEARNING THE MUSIC, AND I ACTUALLY GOT TO JUST STEP BACK AND DO NOTHING WITH THE MUSIC EXCEPT ONCE IT WAS LEARNED, MAKE MINOR ADJUSTMENTS BECAUSE ABBY WAS READY.

IT WAS NICE TO BE ABLE TO DO THAT.
BUT THAT'S JUST KUDOS TO HER DEDICATION TO THAT.

[1.G.11. UIL Unified Track State Qualifiers]
[BACKGROUND] [APPLAUSE] [BACKGROUND]>> [INAUDIBLE] ON THEIR BACK TO BACK STATE UNIFIED TAG TEAM APPEARANCE.
THIS IS ONLY THE THIRD YEAR FRENSHIP HAS COMPETED IN UNIFIED TRACK AND THE SECOND TIME THEY EARNED A SPOT AT STATE.
YOU FIGHT TRACK AND FIELD AS A UIL ATHLETIC COMPETITION THAT PAIR OF STUDENTS WITH AND WITHOUT SELECTUAL DISABILITIES, SO THAT THEY'RE COMPETING TOGETHER IN UNIFIED ON ONE TEAM.
THIS YEAR THE TEAM TOOK HOME THE UNIFIED TRACK CHAMPIONSHIP TITLES FOR BOTH THE AREA MEET, AND THE REGIONAL MEET, AND THEY RECENTLY COMPETED AT STATE WHERE THEY PLACED FOURTH.
UNIFIED TRACK AND FIELD COACH IS JANSON SMITH AND AARON TOMLISON ARE HERE TONIGHT TO HELP US TO RECOGNIZE THEIR STUDENTS.
>> WE'RE GOING TO DO SOMETHING A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT.
WE'RE GOING TO LET CHRISTIAN TO COME OUT AND TALK ABOUT OUR AWARDS THAT WE RECEIVED THIS YEAR TO THE CLUB. CHRISTIAN.
>> SECOND YEAR, THE STATE, ONE BOW.
[00:50:04]
LOCAL MEANS ONE AREA, MEET 1 REGIONALS, CAME IN FOURTH OUT OF 15 TEAMS IN THE STATE OF TEXAS WITH MULTIPLE PERSONAL TEAMS AND MEET RECORDS AND SET.WE ACCOMPLISHED MANY OF OUR GOALS THIS YEAR AND MOST OF ALL HAD A LOT OF FUN.
>> DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING ELSE THAT YOU WANT TO SAY?
>> NO, BUT THIS TEAM HAS BEEN AMAZING.
THIS HAS BEEN FUN ALL THESE YEARS.
I'VE BEEN DOING IT EVER SINCE SIXTH GRADE, SO IT'S BEEN FUN.
>> THIS IS CHRISTIAN'S SENIOR YEAR, SO WE'RE GOING TO MISS CHRISTIAN NEXT YEAR.
HE'S ONE OF OUR STRONGEST ATHLETES, SO WE'RE GOING TO MISS CHRISTIAN A LOT.
NEXT UP WE'RE GOING TO LET ARMANI TALK.
BEFORE ARMANI TALKS, THE REASON WE PICKED HIM IS BECAUSE ONE DAY AFTER UNIFIED LAST YEAR, HE COMES BARRELING INTO MY CLASSROOM AND HE'S LIKE, HOW DO YOU GET INVOLVED IN UNIFIED? I WANT TO GET INVOLVED IN UNIFIED, I'LL DO WHATEVER I HAVE TO DO.
WE DID NOT HAVE TO RECRUIT ANYBODY THIS YEAR.
REAL QUICK, HALF THE TEAM IS NEW.
RAISE YOUR HAND IF THIS IS YOUR FIRST TIME TO DO UNIFIED.
WE DIDN'T REACH ANY OF THEM, THEY CAME TO US.
AT THIS TIME, I'M GOING TO LET ARMANI SPEAK ON NEXT.
>> THIS IS MY FIRST YEAR COMPETING ON BASKETBALL PLAYER FOR FRENSHIP.
IT'S A LITTLE DIFFERENT THAT I GET TO HELP EVERYBODY OUT AND HELP CASEY OUT AS WELL.
THE FIRST MEET THAT I EVER WENT TO WAS AS FRENSHIP AND IT WAS SUPER COMPETITIVE.
I DIDN'T THINK ANYTHING OF IT, I WENT AND PLAYED LIKE I WAS SUPPOSED TO DO AND I STILL LOST.
>> I ACTUALLY TOLD ONE OF OWN TEAMMATES, [LAUGHTER]
>> I LOST AND I WAS LIKE, WELL, I'M ACTUALLY GOING TO HAVE TO DO SOME EXTRA STUFF SO I CAN GET FASTER AND ALL THAT KIND OF STUFF.
EVER SINCE THAT FIRST MEET I WAS HEADING, I'M GOING TO DO THIS.
IT REALLY SHOWED CHARACTER AND LEADERSHIP.
FOR EVERYBODY AS A TEAM, I FEEL LIKE, GOING TO STAY REGIONALS IN THIS AREA.
IT SHOWED ME THAT I CAN DO A LOT MORE THINGS OUTSIDE THE COMMUNITY THAN JUST PLAYING BASKETBALL AND HELP OUT WITH THAT.
IT ALSO INCREASE POSITIVE AND SCHOOL CULTURE, I CAN SAY, BECAUSE I FEEL EVERYBODY SUPPORTED US.
I CAN'T THINK OF WHEN WE WENT TO THE STATE, HOW MANY PEOPLE WERE WATCHING US ON THAT STAGE.
IN CLASS AND STUFF, I CAME BACK TO SCHOOL AND PEOPLE ARE ASKING ME, HOW DID IT GO? HOW DID YOU DO? I CAN SAY THAT I REALLY ENJOYED BEING ON THE TEAM AND I WILL BE RETURNING NEXT YEAR, SO IT WOULD BE A GREAT YEAR FOR US NEXT YEAR AS WELL.
>> DAMIAN WON'T BE THERE SO MAYBE YOU CAN WIN.
>> THE ONLY THING THAT I'M GOING TO SAY IS THAT HOWLEY PHILLIPS SHOUTED AT ME AT THE LOCAL MEET.
WHENEVER WE TALK ABOUT IT BEING COMPETITIVE, I'VE NEVER BEEN YELLED AT.
>> AS SOON AS I'M CHEERING ON ANOTHER ONE, HOWLEY WALKS UP TO ME AND HE IS LIKE YELLING AND SUPER COMPETITIVE, AND I WAS JUST LIKE, I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S HAPPENING RIGHT NOW.
BUT WHEN WE TALK ABOUT IT BEING UNIFIED AND UIL AND COMPETITIVE, I KNOW I'M COMPETITIVE, BUT THESE HUMANS AND I THINK IT'S BECAUSE THEY'VE MADE SUCH AN IMPACT ON EACH OTHER AND THEY TRULY ARE TEAMMATES.
COACH T IS GOING TO GO AHEAD AND GIVE OUT CERTIFICATES FOR OUR ATHLETES.
>> BEFORE I ANNOUNCE THE NAMES, WE'RE NOT COMPETING AT ALL.
>> I THINK WE'RE GOING TO LOSE.
WE SET A LOT OF RECORDS THIS YEAR.
I THOUGHT LAST YEAR THAT THE GIRLS RELAY WOULD NEVER BE BROKEN, WE BROKE THAT BY TWO SECONDS THIS YEAR.
WE CONTINUE TO GET BETTER AND I THINK WE'RE GOING TO BE BACK.
I'LL INTRODUCE THE GUESTS THAT WE HAVE HERE TONIGHT.
WE HAVE SEVERAL THAT COULDN'T MAKE IT BECAUSE OF OTHER THINGS.
>> HANG ON. [INAUDIBLE] [OVERLAPPING]

I'LL MOVE FORWARD WITH AN EFFECTIVENESS REPORT ON THE ATHLETICS PROGRAM.
[2.A. Effectiveness Report on Athletics Program]
PAUL SLINDER GILMAN APPROACHING FROM THE REAR.>> FABULOUS ATHLETIC DIRECTOR.
SHE DOESN'T WANT ANYBODY TO MESS WITH HER MACHINE.
>> WELL, AND I APPRECIATE THAT BECAUSE YOU REALLY PROBABLY DON'T WANT MAYBE [INAUDIBLE] A LITTLE.
BUT, WELL CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR ORGANIZATION AND OUR ORDINARY FRIEND.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR ANYTHING THAT YOU DO, BECAUSE WHAT WE DO IN ATHLETICS IS OBVIOUSLY A BIG REASON AS WHY THE SUPPORT WE GET FROM ME ALSO, THANK YOU SO MUCH.
[01:05:04]
BUT I PUT THIS FIRST PICTURE UP HERE OF THIS BECAUSE THIS IS SUCH A POINT OF PRIDE FOR OUR KIDS.WE HAVE FANTASTIC FACILITIES HERE, OUR FIELDS ARE AMAZING, OUR PROGRAMS ARE AMAZING.
BUT I JUST WANTED EVERYBODY TO KNOW THAT WE'RE TALKED ABOUT ALL OVER THE STATE, BUT THAT'S THE TYPE OF FACILITIES THAT WERE VERY FORTUNATE TO HAVE FOR OUR KIDDOS.
WE ABSOLUTELY LOVE THESE FIELDS AND EVERYTHING.
A LITTLE BIT ABOUT OUR ATHLETIC PROGRAM, I PICKED THIS PICTURE BECAUSE THIS WAS AT THE DISTRICT TRACK MEET, AND THIS IS A GROUP OF KIDS, YES, IT WAS OUR BOYS AND GIRLS TRACK TEAMS, BUT THESE KIDS ARE INVOLVED IN SO MANY DIFFERENT THINGS.
THERE WERE FOOTBALL KIDS OUT THERE, BASKETBALL KIDS, CHEERLEADERS.
I GOT TO ADMIT I'M SO IMPRESSED HERE THAT WE CAN GET CHEERLEADERS TO RUN TRACK.
THAT IS INCREDIBLE AND IN CASES OF BIG PART OF THAT, AND OF COURSE COAT SHORTEST IS A BIG PART OF THAT, WE WANT TO OFFER KIDS OPPORTUNITIES TO BE INVOLVED IN AS MANY THINGS AS WE POSSIBLY CAN, AND I DO BELIEVE WE DO THAT.
I THINK WE'VE GOT COACHES WHO ARE VERY UNDERSTANDING AND WE HAVE PARENTS WHO ARE VERY UNDERSTANDING WHO GET THEIR KIDS WHERE THEY NEED TO BE, AND SOMETIMES IT'S A CHALLENGE, I REALIZED THAT.
WE'RE TRYING TO MAKE THIS PRACTICE AND WE'RE TRYING TO MAKE THAT PRACTICE, BUT I THINK IT'S A BENEFIT TO OUR KIDS TO BE INVOLVED IN AS MANY THINGS AS POSSIBLE.
WE TRIED TO HAVE GREAT RELATIONSHIPS WITH OUR PARENTS, WITH OUR COMMUNITY, WITH OUR TEACHERS, WE'VE GOT A FANTASTIC PRINCIPAL BACK THERE, MR. HERNANDEZ IS ONE OF THE BEST.
HE REALLY IS. I WORKED IN A LOT OF PLACES, AND THAT GUY IS SUPER SUPPORTIVE OF WHAT WE DO AND ALWAYS HERE FOR THOSE KIDDOS.
A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THIS YEAR, WE'VE HAD A GOOD YEAR, WE'VE ALSO HAD SOME [INAUDIBLE] FOR THE YEAR, AND THE TOP ONE UP THERE, WE HOSTED A POWER LIFTING MEET.
IF YOU'VE EVER BEEN TO A POWER LIFTING MEET, IT'S JUST A BUNCH OF KIDS LIFTING WEIGHTS, BUT IT IS A LOT OF FUN.
IT'S THAT NICHE FOR THOSE KIDS THAT THEY DON'T FIT INTO THE TEAM SPORTS AND THEY DON'T FIT INTO OTHER THINGS.
I WANT TO ENCOURAGE YOU NEXT YEAR, WE'RE GOING TO DO IT AGAIN, AND WE'VE GOT IT.
WE'VE GOT EVEN BETTER PLAN TO MAKE IT A LITTLE BIT BETTER NEXT YEAR, BUT WE HAD 15 BOYS' TEAMS AND 13 GIRLS' TEAMS HERE, AND THAT WAS A LOT OF FUN.
OUR TRACK TEAMS HAD AN INCREDIBLE YEAR.
OUR JV, BOYS AND GIRLS AND VASTLY BOYS AND GIRLS WERE BOTH DISTRICT CHAMPS.
WHAT I'VE BEEN TOLD AND I'VE RESEARCHED AS MUCH, I THINK THAT'S THE FIRST TIME IN THE HISTORY OF FRENSHIP THAT ALL FOUR OF THEM HAVE WON.
THAT'S A GREAT ACCOMPLISHMENT.
WE HAD AN INDIVIDUAL STATE CHAMPION AND WRESTLING, AUDREY LOCKHART.
THE THING THAT'S REALLY AMAZING ABOUT HER, SHE WAS ALSO IN THE BAND.
I THOUGHT THAT WAS SO COOL THAT WE HAD A BAND SLASH WRESTLING, AND SHE WAS THE STATE CHAMPION.
SHE'S AN INCREDIBLE KID AND SHE WAS A LOT OF FUN TO BE AROUND.
BECAUSE WE HAD A LOT OF TEAMS WENT DISTRICT, SEVERAL SPORTS ADVANCING BEYOND DISTRICT PLAY, OVER 100 DIFFERENT ATHLETES RECEIVING ACADEMIC AWARDS, WHICH IS ANOTHER TESTAMENT TO OUR GREAT KIDS THAT WE HAVE HERE.
OUR KIDS DO REALLY WELL IN CLASS.
OF COURSE, THIS IS OUR SECOND YEAR WHEN THE UNIFIED TRACK AND THOSE KIDDOS DID A REALLY GOOD JOB.
NOW, CASEY, NOT HEARING WORLD THING, BUT THEY STILL WERE A LITTLE DISAPPOINTED.
WE DIDN'T QUITE FINISH WHERE WE WANTED TO.
BUT THAT'S ONE OF THOSE THINGS THAT IS REALLY GREAT ABOUT ATHLETICS.
BECAUSE YOU'D HAVE TO EXPERIENCE DISAPPOINTMENT SOMETIMES, AND IT'S NOT FUN, BECAUSE THE LAST TWO WEEKENDS WOULD ROUGH ON ME AND OUR SOFTBALL AND BASEBALL GROUPS.
WE HAD A GOOD YEAR, BUT THAT'S JUST SOME OF THE LESSONS WE'VE LEARNED.
ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE'RE REALLY CONCENTRATING ON RIGHT NOW IS GETTING READY FOR THE NEW HIGH SCHOOL THAT WILL BE HERE IN JUST A COUPLE OF YEARS.
THE IDEA IS, ARE WE CULTIVATING, ARE WE GETTING OUR COACHES READY TO TAKE OVER THIS NEW HIGH SCHOOL WITH CERTAIN PROGRAMS AND STUFF.
IN VISITING WITH A LOT OF OUR CURRENT HEAD COACHES, WE'RE REALLY GETTING THEIR STAFF MORE INVOLVED WITH PLANNING, AND WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE TO MAKE A SCHEDULE? HOW DO YOU DEAL WITH THE BUDGET? ALL OF THOSE LITTLE THINGS THAT YOU HAVE TO KNOW HOW TO RUN A PROGRAM.
BECAUSE THE X'S AND O'S ARE REALLY A SMALL PART OF WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO AS A HEAD COACH.
YOU GOT TO KNOW ALL THOSE OTHER THINGS.
YOU GOT TO COMMUNICATE WITH PARENTS, YOU'VE GOT TO COMMUNICATE WITH YOU BOOSTER CLUB, YOU'VE GOT TO COMMUNICATE WITH THE BOARD WHEN THEY COME IN HERE AND DO ALL THEIR RECOGNITION.
THERE'S A LOT OF PIECES TO THOSE THINGS, AND WE'RE TRYING TO HELP SOME OF OUR FOLKS GIRL, AND I'VE HAD A LOT OF COACHES COME TALK TO ME ABOUT, THEY WANT TO BE CONSIDERED DOWN THE ROAD, SO THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO START WORKING WITH THEM.
ONE OF THE THINGS I REALLY WANTED TO TALK WITH YOU ALL ABOUT IS SOME OF THE THINGS THAT WE'RE DOING IN OUR WHITE ROOM, WE USE SOME STATE OF THE ART TECHNOLOGY AT THE HIGH SCHOOL LEVEL.
I'M GOING TO MAKE SURE I SAY THE NAME RIGHT.
[01:10:01]
WHAT THAT IS, IS IT'S CALLED VELOCITY BASED TRAINING.NOW LOOKING AT [INAUDIBLE] WE LIFTED IN HIGH SCHOOL A LITTLE BIT, BUT REMEMBER, THEY JUST SAID DO THREE SETS OR FIVE AND I DON'T WANT TO STORE SOME WHITE ON THERE.
WELL, SOMETIMES YOU COULD DO THE LEG, SOMETIMES YOU COULDN'T DO THE LEG.
BUT THIS PROGRAM RIGHT HERE TELLS OUR KIDS WHEN WE'RE WORKING AT THE PROPER, WHAT'S THE WORD FOR IT, WE'RE EXERTING THE PROPER EFFORT ON EACH LIFT, AND I WANT TO SHOW YOU WHAT IT HAS.
ON THE RIGHT HERE WE'VE GOT, AND I'M NOT EVEN SURE HOW THAT IS TO BE PRONOUNCED, BUT SHE'S DOING SQUATS IN HERE.
YOU SEE THE LITTLE IPAD UP THERE ON THE BAR RIGHT THERE, IF YOU WATCH IT, IT'S GOING TO GIVE YOU A BAR CODE ABSTRACT, AND IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE GREEN AND NOT BLUE.
>> SO JUST TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA, SHE DID A THREE REP DEAL AND SHE GOT TWO BILLS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE GREEN, BUT THERE'S TWO GREENS AND ONE GRAY.
WHEN YOU HIT GREEN ON THERE, THAT TELLS THE ATHLETE THAT'S GIVING THEM INSTANT FEEDBACK.
AM I EXPLODING DOING THE LIFT? AM I DOING IT CORRECTLY? AM I ALSO LINEAR? AM I STRAIGHT UP AND DOWN SO THAT I'M NOT FORWARD OR BACKWARDS, AND SO THESE KIDS CAN LOOK AT THAT AND THEY GO OFFER THAT THREE SET RAP.
I GOT TWO REALLY GOOD RIBS AND THE OTHER ONE, I DIDN'T DO SO GOOD.
I KNOW THE NEXT TIME I'VE GOT TO DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT AND WHILE ALL THAT'S GOING ON, COACHES L IS WALKING AROUND THE WHITE ROOM.
HE'S LOOKING AT THESE IPADS AND HE HELPS THE KIDS UNDERSTAND.
SOMETIMES THEY'LL GO LOOK YOU NEED TO DROP THE WEIGHT DOWN A LITTLE BIT.
IT'S A LITTLE TOO HEAVY FOR YOU TODAY.
FOR WHATEVER REASONS, SOMETIMES YOUR BODY JUST DOESN'T FEEL LIKE LIFTING AND YOU'RE NOT GOING TO BE AS PRODUCTIVE.
WHY? WE ALL GO THROUGH THAT [LAUGHTER]
HE'S WALKING AROUND MAKING SURE THAT THEY'RE BEING SAFE AND THAT IS THE WEIGHT TOO MUCH, IS IT NOT ENOUGH? THIS IS A GREAT WAY FOR OUR ATHLETES TO STILL MAKE GAMES.
WHILE WE'RE REDUCING THE FATIGUE AND THE INJURIES THAT'S HAPPENING.
I'M STILL LEARNING MORE ABOUT IT.
HE'S INCORPORATING IT WITH MORE AND MORE OF OUR KIDS.
BUT IT'S SOME REALLY COOL TECHNOLOGY.
THIS PAST YEAR, WE'VE ALSO GOT AND WE'RE NOT TRACKING THE KIDS WHEN I SAY THIS.
WE'VE GOT THESE LITTLE GPS THINGS THAT THEY WEAR ON A VEST.
WE'VE WORN IT WITH OUR TRACK KITS AND SOME OF OUR FOOTBALL KITS AND WHAT IT BASICALLY DOES IS SHOWS US HOW MUCH THEY ARE RUNNING DURING THE COURSE OF A GAME.
WE FOUND OUT DURING A COUPLE OF FOOTBALL GAMES, SOME OF THOSE RECEIVERS ARE RUNNING ABOUT FOUR, FOUR-AND-A-HALF MILES AT A TIME DURING THE COURSE OF A GAME.
NOW YOU SAY WHY IS THAT IMPORTANT? WELL, IT HELPS THE COACHES TO UNDERSTAND TOO, THAT THEIR RECOVERY IS GOING TO LOOK DIFFERENT THAN THESE OTHER KIDS WHO MAYBE DIDN'T RUN AS FAR OR DIDN'T HAVE AS MUCH PLAYING TIME, SO TO SPEAK.
THEY CAN ALTER THEIR WORKOUTS BASED UPON HOW MUCH EFFORT THEY EXERTED DURING THAT CONTEST.
IT'S REALLY AMAZING TECHNOLOGY.
IT'S REDUCING SOME OF THE INJURIES THAT THEY USED TO HAVE WITH I CALL THEM SOFT TISSUE INJURIES LIKE YOUR HAMSTRINGS AND YOUR QUADS.
YOUR MUSCLES GET FATIGUED AND YOU GET INJURED WHEN YOU OVEREXERTING YOURSELF SOME TIME.
SOME OF THIS DATA THAT THEY'RE GAINING WITH THE WEIGHTS, AND THE RUNNING AND STUFF HAS REALLY BEEN BENEFICIAL TO OUR KIDS.
WE REALLY APPRECIATE COACH HILL AND ALL THAT.
WE'VE GOT A PICTURE UP THERE IN THE RIGHT-HAND CORNER IS THE TRAINERS WERE ACTUALLY WORKING ON HOW TO PUT AN INJURED STUDENT ON BODY BOARD.
I WANTED TO INCLUDE THOSE KIDS IN THERE.
THEY'RE THE ONES WHO DON'T ALWAYS GET A LOT OF RECOGNITION AND ALL TIME.
STUDENTS, TRAINERS, BUT THOSE KIDS ARE AT PRACTICE EVERY DAY.
THOSE KIDS ARE GONE THAT BUS DRIVING TO MIDLAND AND SAN ANGELO AND ALL THOSE PLACES TOO.
WE APPRECIATE EVERYTHING THAT THOSE GUYS ARE DOING WITH OUR PROGRAMS AS WELL.
THEN OUR JUST VISION FOR THE FUTURE, IT'S ABOUT THE SAME THINGS WE'VE BEEN WORKING ON READING.
WE WANTED COMPETITIVE PROGRAMS. WE WANT A WIN. WE WANT OUR KIDS TO ACT RIGHT.
WE WANT TO BE GOOD ROLE MODELS FOR OUR KIDS, WITH OUR COACHES AND WHAT WE DO ON A DAILY BASIS, WHILE TO CREATE HEALTHY COMPETITION AND ALL OF OUR PRACTICES.
I DON'T LIKE GO INTO PRACTICE AND SEEING A LONG LINE OF KIDS.
THAT DRIVES ME ABSOLUTELY CRAZY.
FIGURE OUT A WAY TO GET MORE OF THEM INVOLVED AND LET'S GET THEM INVOLVED AS MUCH AS WE CAN AND THEY'RE DOING A GREAT JOB OF THAT.
OF COURSE, COMMUNICATION WITH YOUR PARENTS AND YOUR STAFF AND YOUR COMMUNITY.
BE GREAT COMMUNICATORS, AND THE THING I'D SAY, AND I DON'T HAVE IT ON HERE, BUT LET'S NOT BE AFRAID TO SAY THE WORD.
WE WANT TO WIN GAMES, WE WANT TO BE GOOD.
IT'S OKAY THAT SOMETIMES WE'RE NOT ALWAYS GOING TO WIN.
BUT WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO EVERY GAME WE'RE DOING OUR VERY BEST.
[01:15:01]
WE WANT TO COMPETE, WE WANT TO FIGHT.I USE THE WORD FIGHT. BUT YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN? NOT FIGHT, ISN'T IT? THAT'S THE ONE THING I CAN LIVE WITH LOSING WHILE I CAN'T, BUT I MEAN, I CAN SIT. HOW ABOUT THAT? WE CAN ACCEPT LOSING SOME TIMES AS LONG AS WE HAVE FOUGHT AS HARD AS WE CAN, WE'VE DONE EVERYTHING TO THE BEST OF OUR ABILITY AND YOU KNOW WHAT, SOMETIMES THEY'RE JUST GOING TO BE [INAUDIBLE].
BUT WE DON'T EVER HAVE TO ACCEPT THAT.
WE CAN ALWAYS KEEP WORKING TO GET BETTER, AND OUR KIDS ARE DOING THAT, AND YOU HAVE BOTH OF OUR BASKETBALL TEAMS LISTED ON THERE AND OUR TRAINERS.
PUT A FEW MORE PICTURES. WE'VE GOT OUR GOLF KIDS ON THERE AND A VOLLEYBALL GIRLS AND OUR SOCCER KIDS AND OUR GOLF KIDS.
AT THE END OF ALL, THERE'S ONE OF THE BIGGEST THINGS THAT'S MOST IMPORTANT IS I DON'T THINK OUR BOOSTER CLUBS GET ENOUGH CREDIT SOMETIMES.
SOME OF THE THINGS THAT WE'RE ABLE TO DO HERE IS BECAUSE OF THE GREAT SUPPORT FROM OUR BOOSTER CLUBS.
THEY HELP ENHANCE THE EXPERIENCE FOR OUR KIDS AND VERY APPRECIATIVE TO ALL OF THEM.
OF COURSE, APPRECIATE EVERYTHING YOU GUYS DO.
IT'S JUST IT GOES WITHOUT SAYING HOW IMPORTANT THAT IS.
I TALK ABOUT THE ADMINISTRATION.
I MENTIONED MR. HERNANDEZ, BUT MR. BURRUS AND ALL OF THEM AS WELL.
WE WORK TOGETHER ON A LOT OF THINGS AND THE MAJORITY OF OUR COACHES ARE CLASSROOM TEACHERS, AND THAT'S VERY IMPORTANT AND WE WORK TOGETHER ON MAKING SURE THAT THEY UNDERSTAND THAT'S A BIG PART OF WHAT WE DO.
WHATEVER REASON WE'VE GOT A GREAT UNDERSTANDING AND EVERYBODY SEEMS TO REALLY BE SUPPORTIVE OF EACH OTHER.
A LOT OF THAT IS JUST BECAUSE OF THE COMMUNITY.
YOU GUYS AND WE'VE GOT GREAT KIDS.
WE'RE AT A GREAT YEAR, WHICH WE'RE STILL GOING, BUT WE'LL PLUG IT UP OR PLAY AGAIN NEXT YEAR.
WE'RE NOT GOING TO STOP PLAYING.
AT LEAST I DON'T THINK WE ARE [LAUGHTER]
>> MY IDEAS, BUT JUST KEEP PLAYING.
BUT AGAIN, THANK YOU. DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT ANYTHING?
SINCE YOU'VE CAME ON BOARD, YOU'VE MADE A HUGE IMPACT AND IT'S OBVIOUSLY, WE HAD A GREAT STAFF IN PLACE AND WE HAD GREAT KIDS, BUT THINK YOUR LEADERSHIP IS TOOK IT ALL THAT STEP ABOVE, AND IT'S VERY NOTICEABLE.
WELL MAY APPRECIATE THE FUTURE.
>> [INAUDIBLE] I DON'T HANDLE THAT WELL, BUT THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
>> GREAT JOB. YOU ARE DOING GREAT JOB AND WE APPRECIATE IT AND DIDN'T GET TO BE HEARD A LOT, BUT WE APPROVED A NEW GOLF CLUB.
>> SO ANDY COREL IS GOING TO BE OUR NEW HEAD BOYS GOLF COACH.
HE IS CURRENTLY THE HEAD GIRLS GOLF COACH AND ANDREWS.
IF YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT GOLF, ANDREW REALLY GOOD.
WELL, HE'S AT DISTINCT TOURNAMENT RIGHT NOW WITH THE ANDREWS GIRLS AND I BEG HOW TO TEXTING HIM A LITTLE BIT TODAY AND JUST ASK HIM ABOUT THE WEATHER. I DON'T KNOW HOW THEY DID.
>> THEY WON THE REGIONALS BY 32 STROKES.
I DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH OF IT IS HIM, [INAUDIBLE] HE'S A GREAT GUY.
YOU'RE GOING TO LOVE HIM, HE'S GOING TO DO A GREAT JOB WE'RE EXCITED AWESOME.
[2.B. Construction Update]
INSTRUCTION UPDATE [INAUDIBLE] [BACKGROUND]>> NOW ITS PRESENTATION WILL BE DONE IN THERE, TWO PORTIONS.
WE'LL TAKE A LOOK AT THE OVERALL PROJECT SIDE OF EACH PROJECT AND WE'LL MOVE ON TO A FEW PHOTOS.
DO YOU BLOCK WALLS 75 PERCENT COMPLETE.
THE BLOCK MASONS ARE NOW WORKING ON THE STORM SHELTER WALLS IN AREA B, AND ON THE INTERIOR WALLS IN AREA C. BOTH WALLS THAT ARE UP IN AREAS A, AND B ARE BEING SEALED.
THE EXTERIOR WASTEWATER LAND IS INSTALLED AND COMPLETE, AND THE PLUMBERS ARE NOW WRAPPING UP THE REMAINING RUFFIANS IN AREA B.
UNDERGROUND ELECTRICAL CONDUIT CONTINUES TO BE RAN THROUGHOUT THE FACILITY WHILE THE DIRT WORK CREWS ARE BUSY BRINGING THE SURROUNDING SIDE OF THE GRADE, WITH THE CONSTRUCTION TEAM COORDINATING AND CONSTANTLY PUSHING ALL THE TRADES.
THIS PROJECT APPEARS TO BE ON TRACK AND UP IN GOOD TIME.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT HERE IS WE'RE LOOKING AT THE NORTH SIDE OF THE ELEMENTARY WHERE THE GRAY AREA IS THE GYMNASIUM, AREA TO THE ROCKS CLASSROOM PORTION YOU SEE THE BLACK SEALER ON AND THEY'RE PREPARING TO ENJOY TRUCK THEY SHOWED UP FOUR DAYS AGO.
[01:20:01]
THE CRANES ARE ON SITE.>> HERE WE'VE GOT SOME ROUGH AND PLUMBING.
THIS IS OVER IN THE CLASSROOM AREA NEXT TO THE ADMINISTRATION.
THESE WILL BE SOME GANG RESTROOMS. THEY'LL BE GOING IN.
HERE'S SOME STEEL COLUMNS ARE SET, AGAIN, THIS IS ON THE EAST SIDE, CLASSROOM EDITION.
WE'VE SEEN MORE GANG RESTROOMS DEVELOPS IN THE BACK.
THIS IS AN EXTRUSIVE NORTH, THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF THE BUILDING, YOU SEE A COUPLE OF ROWS OF A BRICK BEING LAID THERE.
THE TOP PORTION IS INSTALLATION ON BLOCK SEE THE BLACK SEALS STRAP AND THEN THE IMPORTANT PART IS THAT WHITE PIECE OF PLASTIC AT THE BOTTOM THAT'S FLASHING.
WHAT THAT DOES IS THAT IT PREVENTS THE CONDENSATION THAT'S ACTUALLY IN BETWEEN THE BLOCK AND BRICK FROM SITTING AT THE BOTTOM OF THE WALL AND NOBODY CAN CAUSE SOME PROBLEMS THAT WE'VE SET OUT TO THAT THIRD PUSH.
THIS IS SOME INTERIOR BLOCK WALLS BEING BUILT.
THIS IS THE CAFETERIA SLASH LIBRARY AREA.
I'M ON THE FUTURE HARVARD SCHOOL.
WITH CONTINUOUS FLUIDITY AND CACHING BEDS, 90 PERCENT COMPLETE IN AREAS P, C, AND Q THE CONCRETE CREWS ARE WRAPPING UP THE TUBE WALL PANELS FOR AREAS C, ELECTRICAL RUFFIANS ARE 99 PERCENT COMPLETE FOR THE ENTIRE FACILITY ON THEM EVEN FINAL ADJUSTMENTS FOR ELECTRICAL PANEL, ROUGH PINS AND MECHANICAL ROOMS AND INTERIOR WALL STUB HOUSE, PLUMBING RUFFIANS CONTINUE IN AREA E AND F, WHILE THE MAIN WATERLINE AROUND THE LOOP IS BEING LAID IN THE GROUND, WHICH DIRECTS US NOW INSIDE IN THE CRANIUM MOBILE LINERS.
WE STARTED STANDING UP OUR FIRST TILT WALL PANELS THIS MORNING.
WITH THAT BEING SAID, THIS PROJECT IS MAKING GOOD GROUND AND ON THE RIGHT PATH.
HERE'S JUST A DAY-TO-DAY PICTURE OF HOW THINGS GO OUT THERE.
THE BIG GREEN BOOM YOU SEE IN THE MIDDLE THERE THAT'S A CONCRETE PUMP TRUCK AND LOTS OF CONCRETE AND THE LULA YELLOW BOOM BACK OFF TO YOUR LEFT THAT'S THE CRANE YOU READ IN THE FIRST DAY I SHOWED UP ON SITE.
THIS IS AN INTERESTING PICTURE THIS IS AGAIN, FAMILIAR AND THAT FORMS APPROXIMATELY TWO-FOOT HIGH.
WHAT THEY'LL DO IS THEY'LL START DOWN ON THE BOTTOM TIN INCHES.
THEY'LL TELL THE REINFORCEMENT LAND IN 14 INCHES OF CONCRETE.
THEY'LL LET THAT CURE FOR ABOUT FOUR OR FIVE DAYS.
THEY'LL COME AND LAY ANOTHER LAYER OF REINFORCEMENT AND THEY'LL POUR ANOTHER TIN INCHES AND OTHER REINFORCEMENT POUR ANOTHER TIN.
EACH ONE OF THOSE TIN-INCH LIFTS ARE WALLS, TILT UP PANELS THAT WILL BE PICKED UP.
A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF COORDINATION IT TAKES TO POWER IN THE RIGHT ORDER AS YOU NEED TO PULL THEM OFF.
HERE'S THE PUMP TRUCK PUMPS THE CONCRETE AND WORKERS OUT THERE THEY'RE STRAIGHTENED OFF TO THAT TIN INCHES THAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT.
THEN THESE ARE THE GEISURES WHICH IS A NIFTY PROCESS.
IT'S NO LONGER THE HANDS DRAW AND WE FINISH IT OFF AND WE SPLIT IT ALL.
THEY'VE ACTUALLY GOT MACHINE AND YOU SEE 1,2 THERE AND SEVERAL OTHER ACROSS THAT ACTUALLY ARE TIED UP.
YOU ALSO SEE ON THE LEFT-HAND SIDE OF THE PAGE THE DIFFERENT LIFTS AND PANELS.
THE LOWER PANEL IS A LITTLE WIDER THAN THE TOP AND WE'RE USING A LITTLE TIN INCH FOR THE SIDE OF THAT.
CONCRETE CREWS BROKEN INTO ACTUALLY THREE CREWS.
IT'S PRETTY IMPRESSIVE. THERE'S ABOUT 20 GUYS OUT THERE AND YOU'LL HAVE FIVE OR 10 MEN TIMES TO YOUR REINFORCEMENTS.
THEY'LL BREAK OFF SMALL CRUISE FOR FINISHING POINT.
HERE'S SOME ELECTRICIANS IN THIS PICK.
WHAT THEY'RE DOING IS ALL THE ELECTRICAL WAS PRETTY MUCH SO STUBBORN IN DERIVING LOCATIONS.
THEY GO BACK INTO THIS TIME AND WHAT THEY DO IS THE FINAL ADJUSTMENTS AND BRANCH OFF THE POPS AND ACTUALLY TURN THEN WE'RE GOING TO TURN RIGHT IN THE BOTTOM ELECTRICAL PANELS.
THEN YOU'VE GOT REMEMBER THIS IS [INAUDIBLE].
THIS IS A PULLMAN LINES OFF CURVES THAT ARE A QUARTER MILE AWAY TO SAY THIS IS WHERE THAT WALL IS GOING TO BE AND THIS IS WHERE PANELS WOULD BE.
IT'S PRETTY IMPRESSIVE. THIS IS THE UNDERGROUND WATER LAND AND GO AROUND THE LOOP ROAD.
WHAT IS THIS UNDERGROUND WATER LINE? ISN'T IN SHAPE THAT STARTS OUT ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE HOSPITAL, CIRCLES AROUND THE NORTH SIDE OF THE BACK.
IT COMES BACK UP IN-BETWEEN THE ATHLETIC FACILITY AND THE MAIN HIGH SCHOOL, THEN CIRCLES BACK AROUND THE ATHLETIC FACILITY AND COMES BACK UP THE WEST SIDE.
IN EVERY HUNDRED YARDS OR SO, YOU'LL HAVE A FIRE HYDRANT AND THIS IS HOW WE FEED THE MAINTENANCE.
THIS ONE IS A LITTLE CRUSTY THERE.
THAT'S 10:00 AM THIS MORNING, I WENT OUT AND TOOK THAT PICTURE WHEN FIRST WALLS WENT UP.
CRANES COME ALONG WELL, THEY GOT ME SEVEN OR EIGHT PANELS, I DID GET BOTHERED BY OVER 530, BUT THEY WERE LIFTING JUST FAST AS THEY COULD SO COME RUNNING ON.
>> HOW MANY DAYS WILL THAT HAPPEN?
[01:25:02]
>> THAT WILL HAPPEN? WE HAVE THREE YEARS AT TILT UP PANELS, SIX PANELS.
LET ME PICK IT UP AND SPREAD FOR THE NEXT 25 DAYS.
BUT THEN YOU GOT STEEL JOISTS THAT WILL GO ON TOP OF THAT, SO FORTH AND SO ON.
THE STEEL JOIST ON THIS PROJECT THAT SPANNED FROM PANEL TO PANEL, IT'S JUST A LONG WEB PER SAY OF STEEL THAT THEY'LL SIT ON TOP AND HOLD THE ROOF UP.
THERE IS TALL DESIGN. THEY'RE JUST MASSIVE CHUNKS OF STEEL.
THAT'S NOT THE BIGGEST CRANE THEY MAKE IN THE UNITED STATES, BUT IT'S ONE OF THE TRACKS ON IT OR PROBABLY TO MY CHEST AND PROBABLY FROM HERE TO THE WALL 25-30 FEET LONG.
IT'S A PRETTY AWESOME PIECE OF MACHINE.
NEXT WE'LL MOVE ON TO ALCOHOL DRILLS IN MIDDLE SCHOOL.
FINISH OUT PHASE OF ALCOVES TRAILS IS REALLY STARTING TO COME TOGETHER.
WALL PROTECTION IS 90 PERCENT COMPLETE IN AREAS C, E, F, AND G, SEEMING GRID HAS BEEN HONED, AND THE FLOOR TILE HAS BEEN SET IN THE CLASSROOMS. WHILE WALL TILES ARE BEEN INSTALLED IN AREAS OF A AND B.
THE PATHWAYS ARE BEING RAN IN AREAS C AND D, ALONG WITH ENERGY MANAGEMENT CABLING TO PICK THE HVAC SYSTEMS. NETWORK HAS BEEN SET AND STAINED IN AREAS C, E, F, AND G, AND THE FINAL COATS OF PAINTS ARE GOING ON THE WALL.
ON THE EXTERIOR OF THE BUILDING, A 5 PERCENT OF THE ROOF HAS A SHEET IN THE SOFTWARE INSTALL.
SIDEWALKS ARE NEARING COMPLETION AND THE SIDE IS BEING CLEANED UP AND PREPARED FOR LANDSCAPING.
WITH EVERYTHING HEADED IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION, THIS PROJECT SHOULD BE ON TRACK TO BE SUBSTANTIALLY COMPLETED AND READY FOR SCHOOL TO START THIS FALL.
>> WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT HERE, THIS IS THE SOUTHWEST CORNER.
THIS IS ONE OF THE MAIN HALLWAYS TO GO BACK IN WITH MY NEW CLASSROOMS. WE HAVE WALL PROTECTION.
YOU SEE THE CEILINGS WERE IN THE LITTLE RED LOT IN THE UPPER LEFT-HAND CORNER, THAT'S YOUR EMERGENCY LIGHTING.
IT'S ACTUALLY TIED BACK TO A BATTERY PACK.
THE END OF THE HALLWAY, YOU SEE THE DOOR FRAMES ARE UP, DOORS ARE IN AND THE HARDWARE'S INSTALLED.
THIS IS ONE OF OUR SCIENCE LABS.
YOU SEE THE EYEWASH IS INSTALLED NAILWORK STAINED, CHEMICAL PROOF TOPS ARE IN, GOT THE DOORS IN, HARDWARE, FLOORS IN, CEILINGS UP.
LOTS ARE BURNING, MAN LONGER SUCCESS.
THIS IS SOME TILE WORK, WALL TILE WORK OVER IN THE FINE ARTS AREA.
RIGHT HERE INSIDE, YOU HAVE THE RESTROOMS, DRINKING FOUNTAIN WITH THE MOSAIC AND THEN THIS IS GOING TO BE A LITTLE CONCESSION STAND BACK TO THE MAIN HALLWAY BECAUSE IT CAN TOLERATE.
BRICK'S BEEN LAID, SEALED, AND FINISHED.
I'M GOING TO PICK THIS, SO I'LL HAVE TO SHOW YOU ALL LATER ON OF THE BOOM REACHING INSIDE THE BUILDING, CROSS THE CAFETERIA, THAT PUMP REACH CROSS ABOUT 60 YARDS, PUMPING CONCRETE IN THERE.
IT'S PRETTY COOL THOUGH. I'LL SHOW YOU THAT LATER ON.
THIS IS ALWAYS IMPRESSIVE TO ME.
THIS PICTURE DOESN'T DO IT JUSTICE.
YOU LOOK UP IN THE CEILING AND THERE IS A LOT, FOR LACK OF BETTER TERM AND WIRE UP THERE.
THERE IS THIS BIG ROUND WHICH IS HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS OF WIRES.
WHAT'S INTERESTING ABOUT IT IS THEY HAVE TO KNOW WHERE EVERY WIRE TOUCHES EACH POINT SO THAT THEY CAN TURN COMPUTERS ON, TURN THEM OFF, ACTIVATE AND SO A LOT OF INTRICATE WORK THERE.
THIS IS FINISHED ON THE EXTERIOR BUILDING.
THIS IS BY THE ADMINISTRATION AREA BECAUSE IT BREAKS UP THE COURSE HOT.
THE FIXING IS STARTING TO FINISH JOB ON THE TOP PORTION IN THE FASCIA ON THE PORCH AREA IS FICTION B, WRAPPING UP.
ON LOOKING ON THE GYM PARAPET WALL, THAT'S OUR FINAL ROOF CODE THERE.
THEY'LL GET GRAVEL ON TOP OF THAT, THAT'S OUR FINAL MEMBRANE.
IN ANY ETHOS HAS ITS BASE COAT OF PAINT ON IT ON THE SIDE OF THE PARABIT.
THIS IS OVERLOOKING OUR ATHLETIC FACILITY HERE.
YOU CAN SEE OFF TO THE LEFT-HAND SIDE WE HAVE OUR TENNIS COURTS, OVERHEAD LIGHTS INSTALLED, CONCRETE, STADIUM SEATING, PRESS BOX, AND I DON'T KNOW IF YOU CAN SEE IT OR NOT IN THAT, BUT YOU'LL SEE THE LITTLE BLACK STRAP GOING AROUND THE TRACK HAS BEEN LAID, THAT'S THE FIRST COAT OF RUBBER.
I BELIEVE, WE RESCHEDULE TO PUT THE TOP RED COAT ON IT TODAY.
I DON'T IF THAT HAPPENED OR NOT. I DIDN'T EVEN BOTHER.
IT WAS WET THIS MORNING, SO I DON'T KNOW IF IT HAPPENED OR NOT.
BUT GETTING A LITTLE CROSS, IT'S LOOKING GOOD GUYS.
ANY QUESTIONS? GUYS THANK YOU-ALL VERY MUCH. YOU'RE A GREAT JOB.
[01:30:06]
>> NEXT ITEM ON THE AGENDA. [INAUDIBLE]
[4.A. Tentative Agendas for Upcoming Meetings]
>> WE DO. WE HAVE JUNE 19TH IS OUR NEXT REGULAR BOARD MEETING.
>> WE'RE HOPING THAT DECISIONS MADE BY THE LEGISLATURE.
THIS IS WHEN YOU'RE GLAD YOU HAVE A SEPTEMBER 1 BUDGET, BECAUSE IF YOU ADD A JULY 1 BUDGET, IT MAKES IT REALLY HARD TO MAKE DECISIONS WHEN THE LEGISLATURE HAS NOT MADE THEIR DECISIONS.
BUT WE'LL HAVE A BUDGET WORKSHOP AND REGULAR MEETING.
THE BUDGET WORKSHOP, FARLEY, WILL TALK ABOUT WHERE WE ARE IN OUR CURRENT BUDGET CYCLE AGAIN, WHICH ENDS AUGUST 31ST AND THEN WE WILL MAKE PROJECTIONS AND TALK ABOUT THE 23, 24 BUDGET.

THEN YOU ALSO SEE AFTER SCHOOL IS OUT AND THE KIDS ARE GONE, THINGS DON'T STOP.
ONE OF THE FAVORITE THINGS, BEST THINGS WE DO IS WE DO A MAINTENANCE CUSTODIAL AND GROUND STAFF APPRECIATION LUNCHEON IN WHICH DEREK COBB, SEVERAL OF HIS CREW COOK STEAKS AND THAT ARE USUALLY DONATED, I THINK BY CITY BANK OR SOMEBODY.
WE HAVE LOTS OF PRIZES DONATED, AND SO IT GIVES THE PRINCIPALS AND DISTRICT LEADERS A CHANCE TO SERVE THOSE WHO SERVE US EVERY SINGLE DAY, CUSTODIANS, GROUNDS MAINTENANCE.
THEY SIT AND GET A GREAT MEAL AND WE SERVE THEM.
EVERYBODY LOVES DOING THAT AND I GET SOME GREAT PRIZES AND THEN THAT'S IT.
>> THAT'S IT AND THIS IS A GREAT MEETING WHEN YOU SPEND.
IT'S LONGER THAN USUAL FOR GOOD REASON.
>> ANY OTHER? GET THE PHONE CALL.
