Speakers said the district is preparing to hire bilingual kindergarten positions and to provide instructional coaching and intervention resources so teachers can deliver targeted support. Presenters described life-skills and bilingual supports for students and said instructional coaches would work with teachers to provide more one-on-one support and to demonstrate instructional strategies.

Speaker 2 (unidentified speaker) introduced the topic of kindergarten bilingual staffing and said the district was preparing for hiring and role stratification for bilingual positions. The transcript records repeated emphasis on bilingual staffing and on experience teaching in life-skills settings but does not specify counts, salaries or specific hire dates.

Speaker 6 (unidentified speaker) outlined plans for instructional supports, noting coaches and materials to help teachers implement interventions and grammar instruction and saying the approach should allow teachers “more time … for 1 on 1” support. Presenters discussed intervention and grammar resources, an inventory and labeling of materials, and efforts to reduce teacher workload by providing prepackaged instructional resources.

Multiple speakers urged giving new principals and staff time to implement changes; others emphasized the need to move forward with staffing and resource allocations. The transcript did not record a formal motion, a personnel hire, or budget approval during the excerpt.

Meeting remarks also included a brief reference to budgeting for food service from the General Fund and to several noninstructional line items (transportation, security, facilities acquisition and construction) but provided no detailed budget figures nor any final vote in the excerpt provided.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","June 16, 2025 Venus ISD School Board Meeting","oneSentenceSummary","Speakers at a VENUS ISD meeting discussed plans for bilingual kindergarten positions, instructional coaching, grammar and intervention resources, and teacher supports; presenters emphasized teacher coaching, one-on-one support and time for implementation but did not record formal votes.","taxTitle","VENUS ISD, School Districts, Texas","taxId",39484,"location","Texas","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},6658845,"VENUS ISD discusses using construction manager model, balancing price and qualifications",1313,1224000,2537000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3846313-39097379258169f67f882c85adc2c65f&start=1224&end=2537","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3846313-39097379258169f67f882c85adc2c65f/thumbnail_1224000.jpg","/articles/6658845/Texas/VENUS-ISD-discusses-using-construction-manager-model-balancing-price-and-qualifications","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6658845-777c260d575df0dbfec91a3a20ec6f04/orig.mp4?Expires=1771216576&Signature=QSSc7MS~uaIydfauFEuotQpRQOvwFYNGdNq5FUtH37c2vktYIvAqQuFlKoHflEGZTGaG7eO4b6TU8KHYmLBW1BxIJjlc6Ajmrp3O~bkL8scnUJ6uxb0UbxHn2F4sHkOVtGUnd0ZQdhs2QebfK6gk62uosjTGn-MWZ19x03cGr~4T7sgmt~G8mDMUKnjTD2JMuHEhJtODM-gB8j8S6C8daFs5g8jNl0EwaO5xKReO6MVYXiV7Vr6nlUhwqcmdPRAlwVScihN4NHfvnoK72H7KvAPZlJb02g2ZsE0wQL7lWnZcOQLMKZUZZa-E81palAmFvfDnreazdSBBE~YoBPXc7g__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","At a VENUS ISD meeting, speakers discussed the district’s procurement approach for upcoming construction work, including whether to use a construction-manager-as-agent (CMA) model or to hire a general contractor.

District presenters said the procurement will weigh both price and qualifications and that the district team will publicly advertise the project and publish a schedule for proposals. The procurement will consider a “combination of best price and best qualifications,” according to meeting remarks.

Speaker 5 (unidentified speaker) described the district’s approach to contractor selection as a mix of price and qualifications and said the process will be managed and publicly advertised by the district team. The speaker outlined that selection could include use of a construction manager acting as an agent (CMA) rather than a straight low-bid general contractor and noted the CMA would be engaged under an agreement with the owner: “agreement between the Construction manager and the Ourner,” the speaker said.

Presenters discussed that contract documents and schedule details would be published as part of the advertisement and that the district team would evaluate both technical qualifications and price. Meeting remarks also referenced current market conditions and potential savings from the chosen delivery method but did not provide a final decision or a contract award during the session.

Budgetary context was mentioned elsewhere in the meeting, including a reference to debt service described with the number “4.5”; the transcript did not specify units or whether that figure is a tax rate, percentage or other measure.

No formal motion, vote, or final contract award appeared in the transcript excerpt provided. The discussion ended with presenters noting further steps: public advertisement of the procurement, publication of the schedule, and completing an owner–construction manager agreement if the CMA model is chosen.","At a VENUS ISD meeting, speakers reviewed procurement options for upcoming construction projects, debating a construction-manager-as-agent approach versus hiring a general contractor and describing plans for advertising, schedule publication and contract terms.","actionData","errors"]
