Administrators said the district uses the Tiered Fidelity Inventory (TFI) to measure implementation; buildings score the TFI (15 items scored 0–2, maximum 30) and then set growth goals. Schools that achieve about 90 percent on the universal measures shift focus to Tier 2 systems. At the elementary level this year, staff reported the district provided Tier 2 interventions to more than 200 students (pre-K through grade 5), and 95 percent of those students were reported as responding or exiting the intervention: about 40 percent had exited during the year and about 55 percent were progressing toward goals. Administrators said the remaining 5 percent were receiving escalated support or referred to child-study teams.

High-school administrators said most suspension categories have fallen in recent years, but cheating and plagiarism incidents have increased; staff attributed part of the rise to increased availability of artificial-intelligence tools and student misunderstanding of acceptable use. The high school has taken a mix of academic and behavioral responses, including in-school reflection, academic consequences set by departments, and efforts to educate students about academic integrity and appropriate AI use.

Middle-school presenters reported declines across many categories but said vaping (e-cigarette) incidents and plagiarism showed slight increases; principals described school-level programs such as in-school suspension with educational components provided by the district nurse team, and counseling or nicotine-education resources for students.

At the building level, presenters described Tier 1 practices such as a common SOAR expectations program, schoolwide acknowledgements (tickets and weekly drawings), community circles and classroom lessons; Tier 2 interventions included check-in/check-out, skills groups and behavior academies; Tier 3 supports included mental health therapists and individualized behavior plans. Staff stressed communication with families: responsible-thinking sessions and Tier 2 discussions typically include parent contact, often by phone.

Board members asked about consistency across buildings and about whether data spikes reflect a small number of students with repeated incidents; administrators said their regular meetings and referral monitoring let teams distinguish systemwide trends from single-student issues and adjust supervision or targeted supports accordingly. Staff described the data as correlational when linking PBIS to behavior improvements rather than strictly causal.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Hudsonville Public Schools Board of Education Work Session Part 1 3-24-25","oneSentenceSummary","District administrators reported to the board that Hudsonville schools have implemented PBIS across tiered supports, with more than 200 elementary students served by Tier 2 interventions this year and most suspension categories declining districtwide.","taxTitle","Hudsonville Public School District, School Boards, Michigan","taxId",38682,"location","Michigan","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6582691,"Hudsonville administrators recommend new marching-band uniforms; purchase to be presented at next meeting",439,65000,504000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3054872-5fb2a2c88edb85f8aceba9718512b81d&start=65&end=504","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3054872-5fb2a2c88edb85f8aceba9718512b81d/thumbnail_65000.jpg","/articles/6582691/Michigan/Hudsonville-administrators-recommend-new-marching-band-uniforms-purchase-to-be-presented-at-next-meeting","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6582691-0f06cf41395113c58499a7c1d3d00049/orig.mp4?Expires=1771000046&Signature=PFZg~2wjMsXJBX4-RqO~Yl6zVTCFW-wS1duu7nAii9WeryqMK4RM1c3qGyZoINUlyh4~k6rfqzsyBXofu4EI9DYd-OyyUAo59VVukEMS9zN7peosQH-pSIZyIZJNRxaEHRfNrwjDBLtkXn4eH0MRejfAAdv5dHWsroisr6FxdUf1LM8o-u~O7UzwMHPfJxqFURRf2CgDvgtf3XMiIhRy6pZhTLPIdRjl8X29YVbGzLYOWCQxb6NdhGKj7u5vXwtxw7vHni0gHDPdoNZ7zyXK8nGLzfcmSpWPRZHfoZSIpPGB2gyigNgTtgaLVTth6VOWR8G-Rmoj2GXk2Xwze5O8SQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Hudsonville Public School District administrators told the school board they intend to request approval next month to buy new marching-band uniforms for the high school, saying the current uniforms are about 13 years old and in poor condition.

The presenter said roughly 30 incoming freshmen have signed up for marching band next fall and that, because a large senior class is graduating, overall band size this year should stay similar but is expected to grow substantially in subsequent years as current sixth-, seventh- and eighth-graders advance. The district reported that 70 to 75 percent of that grade cohort continue in fine arts (band, orchestra or choir), a trend administrators said will increase marching-band participation.

District staff said they solicited bids and have met the threshold requiring a formal procurement process. The administration showed a sample uniform and described components that can be changed from year to year (for example, a removable performance top and interchangeable accents) to align with annual show themes. Staff recommended presenting a purchase request at the board’s April meeting and said they will size students soon; they recommended ordering roughly 20 percent more uniforms than the immediate need to allow for sizing and growth. Officials described a vendor guarantee allowing replication of the uniform for about five years; beyond that, materials can change and reproduction is less certain.

No formal board action was taken at this meeting. Staff emphasized timing concerns: producing and sizing uniforms may be tight to have full uniforms by the first week of the season, but staff expect students will at least have performance shirts early in the season and full uniforms for later events such as the Christmas parade. The board packet includes a recommended quantity and estimated cost, the presenter said, but the transcript does not record a specific dollar figure for the uniform purchase.

\"They are falling apart,\" the presenter said of the existing uniforms, adding the new design is \"modern\" and aligns with school colors. The sample was shown to board members and to a student who tried it on during the meeting.

The administration said additional instrument purchases and other marching-band expenditures may be needed if student numbers rise; those items will be presented for approval through the district’s normal budget and procurement process.","District presenters said the high school marching-band uniforms are about 13 years old and falling apart; staff will present formal procurement for board approval next month after bids met the district threshold.",{"_33":89,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":90,"_41":91,"_43":92,"_45":93,"_47":94,"_49":95,"_51":96,"_53":97,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":98,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":99,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6582696,"Hudsonville board approves meeting agenda",66,33000,99000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3054872-5fb2a2c88edb85f8aceba9718512b81d&start=33&end=99","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3054872-5fb2a2c88edb85f8aceba9718512b81d/thumbnail_33000.jpg","/articles/6582696/Michigan/Hudsonville-board-approves-meeting-agenda","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6582696-dc91436d07a8550c8c2c9b22a67e7dd5/orig.mp4?Expires=1771000046&Signature=d4JGzeDbAIGV2ymgwrk5MerajyMpAnQ8JbD6dOJU~iC7m-7wysQnzNChUMb1I7JDFyHMYngrG5TOcBGvhkdqTreXpXsaTSeZeZErs77vxC8~0FuVspojFomOhAbn7GWbQiVbniSKzk55l4KwpoMCgM1xSF0e9buSWVnolaGFnYUt-6q2sxbJ9lorB8BJk4OEJo6iKhcIgzRUzfYFaDKqrIVVrc2pHzINs6QcD4vu2OxLa9LP660iZjRgePVhjay0YIKxAHi1F8SR9l4llhmLifkzK1cB6-rs3fYj2hqdQGjeEVaLpqjx0JuVjDs2KCW2KDtZoylo9VDRd-73ZWaQjA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Hudsonville Public School District Board of Education approved the meeting agenda after a motion and a second at the start of the session.

The recommended package in the board packet covers the display, speakers and warranty; electrical work and site installation are additional and are estimated by staff at roughly $75,000 to $125,000 depending on site conditions.

Staff noted the district already uses Daktronics at its field-house facility; electing Daktronics would preserve software and operational compatibility with existing equipment. The proposed location is on the north side of the stadium; if the larger video display is installed staff proposed removing a smaller existing scoreboard. The presenter said the turnaround for design and build is about three months and projected an installation target of July if the board approves the plan. The bid price presented to the board did not include site electrical work, soil borings or other civil work, and staff said they were awaiting final electrical estimates and bore results before returning with a final contract recommendation.

Staff described benefits beyond athletics: the display could be used for track meets, band competitions and facility rentals, and sponsorship revenues could support athletic operations. The vendor scope includes a speaker system to project audio from the board and a multi-year warranty; staff said local vendor support and regional adoption of similar systems made maintenance and parts support more available than in earlier years.

No final award was made at the meeting; staff said they will return with a sole-source letter and final cost estimates for installation and electrical work at an upcoming meeting.","Staff recommended adding a Daktronics video display at the stadium using available bond funds; the vendor bid covers board, sound and warranty, while electrical/installation costs are estimated at $75,000–$125,000 and are not included in the bid.",{"_33":113,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":114,"_41":115,"_43":116,"_45":117,"_47":118,"_49":119,"_51":120,"_53":121,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":122,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":123,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6582681,"District recommends awarding Filter First lead-water contract; one bid covers full inventory work",476,4515000,4991000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3054872-5fb2a2c88edb85f8aceba9718512b81d&start=4515&end=4991","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3054872-5fb2a2c88edb85f8aceba9718512b81d/thumbnail_4515000.jpg","/articles/6582681/Michigan/District-recommends-awarding-Filter-First-lead-water-contract-one-bid-covers-full-inventory-work","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6582681-1b3e0d736ef800d51efd5dc8bbd9f013/orig.mp4?Expires=1771000046&Signature=QNQX7HOrt0lbd7OWpHfdbpXyu6ER4kVZ1Yn8hmX-sZP9LF5CglzVf0KyoH8Cmw5vGlfMFDE3uulM0TBk8QefyY~o0ZOd9WE6CRsxXk0XTKzkXln~hkxfEQ2cBfQaOrNrmKGgpJsWPLoDnby~x322cw30Iq4-wO8T-RTGgfy6e4XwuRak7AwGoR1m-D-FcueYsRnfaKfTj9d~olCT7rpBsFWPF-V4pSxDU8p6KB7i5Ko9FZNlCd3eazkv7BIlrKyBqyO9idAoHeXagydiM4Fyshl9Rh5pOv2Mve945nX4qFjw2f0nui7bfR3f3xV0Kuvvk1hO6pqQIGhtv6Zvq-Q0gQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Hudsonville Public School District staff recommended the board consider awarding a contract to DHE Plumbing Mechanical for work under the state’s Filter First lead-water initiative. The presenter said the bid totaled $402,600 for a districtwide inventory and installation project that covers every potential drinking-water source in school buildings.

Staff described the Filter First process as a state-directed program that requires inventorying every potential drinking-water fixture (fountains, bottle fillers, classroom sinks and other points where a student could consume water). The district’s buildings-and-grounds team completed a fixture-level inventory and provided it to potential bidders; staff said the quantity and detail required made bidding onerous and that only one vendor submitted a full bid.

According to the transcript, the district estimated its initial project budget at $408,004 and reported state funding of about $241,000 toward the work; staff said the state award did not fully fund the bid and the district would cover the difference. The presenter noted that the vendor has performed successful work for the district in the past and that the project will also require ongoing testing and signage obligations; staff estimated recurring testing labor “on the order of” roughly 10 hours per week early in the program and said annual posting of results will be required. Staff also said any source not verified as filtered must be labeled as nonfiltered and must be taken out of service if not compliant.

Board members asked whether wells and municipal water supplies are treated the same under the program; staff replied that all potential student-consumption sources must be inventoried and treated according to the Filter First requirements regardless of water source. Staff said most of the work can be completed this fiscal year but some installations may extend into July and August; they also noted the district will seek to maximize grant funding this year to reduce local costs.

No contract was finalized at the meeting; staff recommended the board consider awarding the contract to DHE Plumbing Mechanical at the next board meeting after review of the bid and funding plan.","The district recommended contracting DHE Plumbing Mechanical for a Filter First lead-water filtration project (bid $402,600); state funding covers part of the work (about $241,000); remaining costs and ongoing testing obligations remain with the district.","actionData","errors"]
