The Hillsboro-Deering School Board met on November 6, 2017. They received presentations on the Student Assistance Program and Food Service, discussing funding and nutritional guidelines. A major topic was the HDES Exterior Renovations project, totaling an estimated $587,000 across three phases. The Board anticipates a potential $1 million budget increase and reviewed a technology funding request of approximately $80,000 from the trust fund. The Board approved the October 16 minutes with amendments. Cheryl Cornett was transferred from Math Tutor to Math Specialist. Two overnight field trips were approved: the Grade 8 Washington, DC trip and the HS Robotics Team trip. Action on the lease with Rymes for the HS Alt Program was tabled. A lease agreement tax issue involving the Deering selectman was discussed. The next regular meeting is scheduled for November 20, 2017.

Coordinate help for the students.

There is a Referral Process
6.
Teachers / Faculty can refer students to councilor directly.
7.
Program in place at High School and Middle School
b.
Comments and questions made by Rich Pelletier
i.
How do we measure success?
1.
Using a form with students. Tracks student’s academics, attendance,
discipline, ability to self advocate.There is a weighted scale based on
proof vs. what the student says.
ii.
Behavioral changes are difficult and take a long period of time.
1.
We need to change the perception of risk.
iii. Are you prepared to meet at the end of the year to request additional services?
a.
There is no additional grant funding available. Funding for
program expansion would most likely need to come from the
board.
iv. Once a child is in the program, how long do they stay in it?
1.
Whenever they enter the program until they graduate at grade 12.
2.
Early termination is voluntary (up to the student)
3.
Program is voluntary
c.
Comments and questions made by Nancy Egner
i.
How long are you in the schools?
1.
2 days per week.
2.
By the end of this year, probably not enough time.
ii.
Discussion group plans?
1.
The more kids that meet together, the better it is for the students. It
forces them to confront topics together.
d.
Comments and questions made by Chris Bober
i.
Do most of the referrals actually have substance abuse connections?
1.
Most at the middle school. Others are at a greater risk.
2.
There are a few who are already using, but have not admitted it yet.
3.
This is a community issue and it happens in every community.
4.
Program intervenes and provides options.
ii.
Ideal situation, what would be most helpful to you, to your program, and to
serve students effectively?
1.
This is still new to everyone. Working on building trust relationships
with staff and students.
2.
Would be great to get five referrals a week (for same or different
students)
e.
Comments and questions made by Paul Plater
i.
The 91 sessions, is that one per student, or multiple sessions per students?
1.
There are approximately 18 students in the program, with 91 sessions
total.
f.
Comments and questions made by Robert Hassett
i.
That statistic is pretty normal in similar programs.
ii.
Looking forward to the report at the end of the year.

a.
The idea of a trust fund is to save money.
i.
If you are using money from the trust fund the same year you added it to the trust fund,
it is deceptive to the voters. The expenses being covered should have been added to the
original budget.
ii.
Be honest and tell the voters what you want to spend the money on.
