The Ouachita Parish School Board met in regular session on Tuesday, September 8, 2009 at twelve (12:00) o’clock noon at its regular meeting place, the Ouachita Parish School Board office.
The following members were present: Jack White, Scott Robinson, A. R. Sims, Jerry R. Hicks, John Russell, Carey Walker and Susan Spence. There were none absent.
Board member Susan Spence led the Pledge to the Flag.
The Invocation was given by Board member Scott Robinson.
On motion by Jerry Hicks, seconded by A. R. Sims, the Minutes of August 18, 2009 were unanimously approved as written.
On motion by Jerry Hicks, seconded by A. R. Sims, the Board unanimously approved the revised Agenda after adding the matching funds request of Ouachita Parish High School under Business Item No. 8, and further moving to approve the revised Personnel Agenda as presented, including the changes since mailout.
The Director of the Chennault Aviation & Military Museum, Nell Calloway, introduced children’s author, Dee Scallan to the Board. Scallan’s mission to put art back into schools has become a reality as she works with Ouachita Parish students in a creative way they can learn quicker. Illustrations of Scallan’s work were viewed by the Board as Mrs. Calloway asked the Board for a donation of $5000 to help defray costs in producing materials used in teaching children about military history. At this time, Grant Writer/Supervisor Pam Barton announced that this request fits a program perfectly for grant funds that have already been awarded and will come back to the Board with more information after she reviews the grant requirements. The Board agreed to postpone their consideration of approval until Barton reports back to the Board.
On the recommendation of Business Manager Richie Garrett, Susan Spence moved, seconded by A. R. Sims, that the Board approve the Ouachita Parish School Board Fund Balance Policy amended to include the following addendum: “The use of General Fund balance below the established minimum limit of 10 percent shall only be for unanticipated or unforeseen events of a non-recurring nature.” Motion carried unanimously.
On the recommendation of Business Manager Richie Garrett, Scott Robinson moved, seconded by Susan Spence, that the Board adopt the changes in the Worker’s Compensation Policy as presented. Motion carried unanimously.
According to Special Projects/Safety Coordinator Kenneth Slusher, Worker’s Compensation claims cost the Board around $1 million per year. To potentially avoid accidents and claims, Slusher reminded the Board that a consultant was hired to conduct safety meetings mainly with the maintenance, cafeteria and warehouse employees. Sessions for school bus drivers will also be provided. At present, these respective employees are required to attend these safety meetings to promote awareness in following Safety Policy guidelines. Slusher says that in the past, the administration has been lax in requiring these safety meetings. However, due to the excessive costs paid out by the Board in claim payments during the last few years, he thinks this picture is going to change considerably due to the recent enforced policy requirements and recent mandated safety meetings.
On motion by Susan Spence, seconded by John Russell, the Board adopted the Resolution authorizing Superintendent Webber to execute the agreement with State Project No. 737-37-0016, Federal Aid Project No. SRS-3709(511) as recommended by Business Manager Richie Garrett. This specific grant requires a separate Resolution authorizing the Superintendent’s signature regarding sidewalk construction for Shady Grove Elementary School which was drawn up by Board attorney Elmer Noah. Motion carried unanimously.
Business Manager Richie Garrett recommended requiring all schools offering band/choir to use the Charms Accounting Software System for Music. The software contains an inventory system that keeps up with the instruments and their repair in addition to monitoring instrument rental payments from parents where applicable. Whereby, Scott Robinson moved, seconded by John Russell, that the Board adopt the policy requiring all schools offering band/choir to use the Charms Software Accounting System for Music. Motion carried unanimously.
On the recommendation of Business Manager Richie Garrett, Susan Spence moved, seconded by A. R. Sims, that the Board adopt the 2009-10 Ouachita Parish School Board Budget as submitted. Motion carried unanimously.
On motion by Carey Walker, seconded by Susan Spence, the Board granted the matching funds request of Ouachita Parish High School in the amount of $9,950.00 for the installation of a fence around the field house/athletic field as recommended by Business Manager Richie Garrett. They have met the requirements of the Matching Funds Policy and the total cost of the fence is $19,913.00. Motion carried unanimously.
Upon the recommendation of Special Projects/Safety Coordinator Kenneth Slusher and motion by Susan Spence, seconded by Carey Walker and John Russell, the Board authorized the purchase of flu vaccine for 1,000 OPSB employees for a total cost not to exceed $20,000, covering the cost for the vaccine at $20.00 each. Other than the vaccine, all supplies will be furnished through the Nurses’ Program. All shots will be administered by OPSB school nurses. Motion carried unanimously.
Special Projects/Safety Coordinator Kenneth Slusher reported that the Fire Marshall will come to West Monroe High School tomorrow for inspection of the entire new wing except for the auditorium, the Ag building should be finished by September 16 and the field house at Ouachita Parish High School is held up waiting on the second story hand rails and hope the Fire Marshall will allow occupancy of the bottom floor until the hand rails are installed. The additions at Woodlawn evaluation of bids will be considered today and work is going very well at West Ouachita. Pinecrest should be finished in the next couple of months.
On the recommendation of Special Projects/Safety Coordinator Kenneth Slusher, Mr. Sims moved, seconded by Scott Robinson, that the Board accept the low base bid of $249,700 and Add Alternate No. 1 of $107,900 for a total amount of $357,600 from Ragan Builders for additions at Woodlawn (base bid includes 2 classrooms & Add Alt. includes restrooms for classroom additions) [Bid No. 44-09]. The project budget is $325,000 including architect fees and funded through the West Ouachita sales tax fund. Motion carried unanimously.
On the recommendation of Business Manager Richie Garrett, Scott Robinson moved, seconded by Susan Spence, that the Board accept the low bid meeting specifications from Hatch at a cost of $117,965.97 for Pre-K classroom materials paid with ARRA funds [Bid No. 8-10]; further moving to cancel the bid for greenhouses and re-bid [Bid No. 10-10]. Motion carried unanimously.
On the recommendation of Business Manager Richie Garrett, A. R. Sims moved, seconded by Scott Robinson, that the Board grant permission to bid the following items: (1) Band Instruments [Bid No. 11-10]; (2) T-Building at Woodlawn Junior High [Bid No. 12-10]; and (3) Greenhouses [Bid No. 13-10]. Motion carried unanimously.
An announcement was made that the ground breaking ceremony at Richwood Middle School will be held at 9:00 A.M. tomorrow at the site.
The next meeting will be held on September 22 at 6:00 P.M.
There being no further business to be brought before the Board, Mr. Sims moved, seconded by Scott Robinson, that the meeting adjourn. Motion carried unanimously.

During the reporting period of September 1, 2009 through September 30, 2009 the Lakeshore Swartz water system violated the maximum contaminate level of coliform bacteria as set forth in the State and Federal Primary Drinking Water Regulations [Part XII of the Louisiana State Sanitary Code (LAC 51:XII)]. Action has been taken to eliminate the contamination.
Some of the sample taps where the samples were collected were found to be defective and is the suspected reason for the positive results. These have been replaced.
Since being notified of the non-compliance Greater Ouachita has increased chlorine levels, and flushed water lines to distribute the increased chlorine levels.
After this corrective action, all the investigative follow samples did not indicate the presents of any coliform bacteria. You do not need to boil your water or take other corrective actions. However, if you have specific health concerns, consult your doctor.
People with severely compromised immune systems, infants, and some elderly may be at increased risk. These people should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers. General guidelines on ways to lessen the risk of infection by microbes are available from EPA’s Drinking Water Hotline at (800) 426-4791.
This is not an emergency. If it had been you would have been notified immediately. Total coliform bacteria are generally not harmful themselves. Coliforms are bacteria that are naturally present in the environment and are used as an indicator that other, potentially harmful, bacteria may be present. Coliforms were found in more samples than allowed and this was a warning of potential problems. Usually, coliforms are a sign that there could be a problem with the treatment or distribution system (pipes). Whenever we detect coliform bacteria in any sample, we do follow-up testing to see if other bacteria of greater concern, such as fecal coliform or E. coli, are present. We did not find any of these bacteria in our subsequent testing. If we had, we would have notified you immediately.
Please share this information with all the other people who drink this water, especially those who may not have received this notice directly (for example, people in apartments, nursing homes, schools, and businesses). You can do this by posting this notice in a public place or distributing copies by hand or mail.
