Director Mike Bogrzyzewski described the representative-assembly process and the nomination timeline; he encouraged board members to nominate themselves or colleagues for the delegate slots that Brightworks allocates. \"The process begins by anyone on a school board nominating a colleague or themselves to be that delegate for their district,\" Bogrzyzewski said.
Board members discussed timing and the fact that board membership will change after the upcoming election. To keep flexibility, the board appointed Director Katie Goggins to the Brightworks representative assembly through January or until the board chooses to designate another representative. The motion to appoint Goggins was moved and seconded and carried by voice vote.
Brightworks provides cooperative services including multi-tiered systems of support (MTSS) and other shared professional development; board members noted recent Brightworks support for Harambee and MTSS work in the district. Director Goggins said she will serve as a placeholder and will represent the district at the Brightworks annual meeting and other assembly obligations as needed until the board reconsiders assignments in January.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","September 25, 2025 School Board Meeting","oneSentenceSummary","The board named Director Katie Goggins as Roseville's representative to the Brightworks service cooperative assembly; the appointment will stand until board membership changes in January.","taxTitle","ROSEVILLE PUBLIC SCHOOL DISTRICT, School Boards, Minnesota","taxId",65355,"location","Minnesota","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},5973699,"District highlights expanded summer programs, ESY inclusion and community partnerships",728,586000,1314000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5834919-eb355f2c8783eb27ef42a6d3ae6d44fa&start=586&end=1314","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5834919-eb355f2c8783eb27ef42a6d3ae6d44fa/thumbnail_586000.jpg","/articles/5973699/Minnesota/District-highlights-expanded-summer-programs-ESY-inclusion-and-community-partnerships","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/5973699-08078bcca2b8aa898349c2ee2ebb3c7f/orig.mp4?Expires=1771046663&Signature=JKEUWxy2cblPl36upda7pFEmIaBwWRoHt1nTT~Haxojr1EJG8zoy2BZq6LaNuuUBYSKYT5togUjX0osQ5pWDl~vL5JlBv-tCbWAjRvF31mIUaNzV2lOVw8GN47PdiQFAf~yyoOsMB65tv-aQ0t6kBdZuartuv58RfLxLZJSeAqzWAX1tk1~ulIPnKUtuHYLFZkutsX5GiD3GuRGrmvNmNulwFtGHx8Vd~axgDPVAkLuc512LX952Uq4bQ81CZz1myEBU4zWt2d9wLTGRq5emNnnEcVkrrwog2Xf4LemJQdCIe23d6yc0i595NJZJDlC76zn~HPfBRrUyCixNvQnFWg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Roseville Area Schools presented an overview Thursday of its summer programs, reporting participation levels, staff-retention rates and new partnerships the district says expanded access and inclusion for students with special needs.
Nacita Thomas, executive director of student services, introduced the team. Community education supervisors and program leads reported enrollment numbers: Friendship Connection served 563 students across four buildings for nine weeks; Youth Enrichment ran 175 classes with 1,200 registrations; Summer Discovery enrolled 751 students (130 of whom were new middle-school enrollments this year); Summer Academy credits totaled about 407 credits earned; the adult basic education program served almost 400 adult learners for nearly 7,000 hours; and Extended School Year (ESY) served 246 students. \"This summer we partnered ESY with our summer discovery program,\" Taylor Anderson, assistant director of student services, said. \"For our 10 students that were receiving special education services, this partnership made a huge difference.\" She described the work as expanding access to the least restrictive environment and helping students build communication and social skills in real-world settings.
Program leads also reported staff-retention and staffing details: Taylor Anderson said the combined student services programs achieved a 70% staff retention rate; ESY hired roughly 180 staff members and many programs relied heavily on returning Roseville staff. Megan Webb, marketing manager, noted program outreach and documentation, citing more than 2,600 photos taken and 325 videos.
The presentation highlighted partnerships that brought learning opportunities and take-home resources: the district partnered with the Bell Museum to bring interns to speak with older site students, take trips to the planetarium and distribute 75 free STEM kits; high-school students read to early learners during Summer Academy; and other community organizations supported sports, playgrounds and media-center supplies. \"These partnerships bring so much joy and a whole new level of energy and excitement to our schools,\" Executive Director Sydney Artisan said.
Board members asked whether participation was growing and about staff composition. Erica Anderson (community education supervisor) said Summer Discovery grew from 561 registrations the prior year to 751 this year after focused recruitment and rebranding efforts at the middle-school level. Taylor Anderson and others said much of the summer staffing came from returning district employees, with some outside hires where needed.
The board received the report; no action was taken. Staff said the district will continue the partnership model and monitor enrollment and retention to inform next year's programming.","Roseville Area Schools presented summer programming results including participation counts, a partnership model integrating Extended School Year (ESY) students with Summer Discovery, and community partnerships with the Bell Museum and local organizations.",{"_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},5973704,"District report shows modest gains, persistent racial gaps in MCA and FastBridge results",2608,1873000,4481000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5834919-eb355f2c8783eb27ef42a6d3ae6d44fa&start=1873&end=4481","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5834919-eb355f2c8783eb27ef42a6d3ae6d44fa/thumbnail_1873000.jpg","/articles/5973704/Minnesota/District-report-shows-modest-gains-persistent-racial-gaps-in-MCA-and-FastBridge-results","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/5973704-03c08d71c609f568aa7cd086f30a23a7/orig.mp4?Expires=1771046663&Signature=I5Fa2sX2yv~ZjuNGyoSBnUJLLzrMeQN1OrVSSzK4sb6DQL5WmCJsqlPJ70DpdvITiBbMh1TMwM1HRiR18HkT-JDCyRnUQmR4DyALUuWD~kIAzxUHtxbbOgixXHC1c6QoX4XSc3AKfZ1kjSGre4TXZEbNwaBF8AqYPTCnRbWgETk83zHok5gIRzqOpCBP4F211JMJV3gh~wCoEt4gXu1URvsYn28Hx-C8Gh7bG2EACZkweho98i8Kki2jV2-Cyhhp3dPWn3vUr-Hdn3~lITv~Sc02JBJfoFS9WyPLojuCxiwoKG1byF3N2EtOPAQtZjX03lYYwWzYMKMCYUINKBSAwQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Roseville Area School Board on Thursday received a data-rich achievement report showing districtwide Minnesota Comprehensive Assessment (MCA) proficiency largely flat from 2024 while FastBridge growth measures showed stronger gains at early grades and pockets of improvement across schools. District staff emphasized training and targeted interventions to address persistent racial disparities.
Jake Vondelinde, executive director of teaching and learning in the office of educational equity, led the presentation and said the district's reading proficiency was about 45.5% compared with a statewide average of about 49.6%, a roughly four-percentage-point gap. \"We remain about 4 percentage points below the statewide average and both Roseville and the state stayed about the same proficiency rates from the previous year,\" Vondelinde said.
The report highlighted areas of improvement: grades 5–8 showed gains in reading proficiency (eighth grade gained 5.3 percentage points), seventh grade outperformed the statewide average, and several elementary schools (Falcon Heights, Parkview, Rams, Central Park, Emmett D. Williams, Brimhall) posted strong FastBridge combined typical and aggressive growth in reading and early literacy. In math, districtwide MCA proficiency was 37.8% (grades 3–8 and 11), below the statewide average by about 7.5 points; grades 7 and 11 showed year-over-year gains, and Central Park, Edgerton, Parkview and Rams posted multi-year increases.
Vondelinde framed the results as part of longer-term systemic work: the district has invested in structured literacy and the science of reading (LETRS training for K–4 teachers and pre-K; district rollout of Carryall/University of Minnesota programs for upper elementary), and has partnered for professional development in math using Cognitively Guided Instruction (CGI). \"We continue to put forth resources and efforts into our literacy improvements, especially at our earliest grades,\" Vondelinde said.
District staff said FastBridge growth classifications (aggressive, typical, modest, flat) show progress with reduced flat growth in early reading and early math; about 64% of earliest readers had combined typical or aggressive growth. Vondelinde also noted the district secured roughly $1 million from the Minnesota Department of Education for alternate delivery services and reimbursements supporting literacy, math and behavior interventions.
Board members pressed on disparities and implementation. One board member asked whether improvements were benefiting all student groups; staff acknowledged that while some groups improved, racial disparities persist and range widely by subgroup. Vondelinde pointed to new teacher evaluation rubrics and cultural-competence elements intended to align classroom practice with equity goals and said the district will continue to prioritize early literacy and targeted interventions.
No formal board action was requested on the report, but staff said curriculum reviews, training, screening three times per year (K–8) and phased implementation of new materials are ongoing. The district also noted changes in state assessment design — the reading MCA will transition to MCA4 next year and science has shifted to MCA4 this year — which will require resetting some trend comparisons.
The district will continue monitoring assessments, training completion rates and school-level results as the multi-year literacy and math investments proceed.","Roseville schools reported stable districtwide MCA proficiency with grade-level gains in several grades and higher FastBridge growth in early grades, while racial proficiency gaps remain; the district plans targeted training (LETRS, CGI, Carryall) and interventions.",{"_33":101,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":102,"_41":103,"_43":104,"_45":105,"_47":106,"_49":107,"_51":108,"_53":109,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":110,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":111,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},5973709,"School board approves preliminary levy certification; seeks voter approval for $6 million-a-year safety and technology levy",3765,3324000,7089000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5834919-eb355f2c8783eb27ef42a6d3ae6d44fa&start=3324&end=7089","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5834919-eb355f2c8783eb27ef42a6d3ae6d44fa/thumbnail_3324000.jpg","/articles/5973709/Minnesota/School-board-approves-preliminary-levy-certification-seeks-voter-approval-for-6-million-a-year-safety-and-technology-levy","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/5973709-e6ccdc35329a8c543d9d55d1793b0723/orig.mp4?Expires=1771046663&Signature=AlXQEwPQZ0jB7ciUggUWGflR1MxazFH5JKO-eizalVq6ukFX6~9CRcWmBwJa6xKyjqMOcRJ9seOndIpSlfStVG1pYLOb7YM0mXM6xb9OrtT7vZ4y61NYUYaF0eVVWXw3TEZLIgji62~EW3hV2Zw9w0YTar6XUIh1SLgZNtcMmXsu7r6v408orGn~6ftEUq8ahChepbmxDsN3eS7ZXL8taOTpc26u6OahJyzdX3i4PX9YT4LM9j4ja8zBvir12WdoYqbe5KdYb6pdJewD-BsIhbz2Lpe9IZTYj4wC7unGgJ3wOycJunrTVYu7y7MoFSQKwnBX100PZk2UecMm7FhQzg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Roseville Area School Board on Thursday certified its preliminary levy at the maximum and moved forward public information about a proposed safety and technology capital projects levy that would provide $6 million a year for 10 years if voters approve it on Nov. 4. The measure is intended to fund cameras, secure entrances, cybersecurity, classroom devices and network infrastructure.
The levy proposal, presented by Executive Director Sherry Thompson, would generate $60 million over a decade and is described in district materials as dedicated to three categories: safety and security, student learning technology, and communications and connections. \"If approved by voters, the levy will provide $6,000,000 per year for 10 years to support security and technology related expenses such as acquiring, maintaining, and upgrading equipment, infrastructure, and systems,\" Thompson said.
The district estimates a household tax impact of about $18 per month on a $350,000 home; Thompson directed residents to a web tax calculator for parcel-specific estimates. The ballot language shown to the board lists permitted uses and notes the measure, if approved, is a property tax increase and that funds would be restricted to the uses stated on the ballot.
Board members and staff emphasized timeline and alternatives. Thompson said, \"If that is approved in November, it becomes part of the school board's certification of your levy in December, and then looking at next calendar year 2026 the money would start to flow with that first advance in property taxes in May.\" She added that without a dedicated capital levy, technology and safety costs would compete with classroom and operating funds.
The board also certified its preliminary general levy for fiscal 2026–27 at the maximum; administration reported a projected overall tax levy decrease of about 3.03 percent compared with the prior calculation. The board then voted to approve the preliminary levy certification. The motion carried after an aye vote; minutes show the motion passed but do not record individual roll-call votes.
The district will host two recorded community information sessions about the levy on Sept. 30 and Oct. 6 and has posted FAQs and a tax calculator on its website. Thompson said the district could not legally increase property taxes on its own and must seek voter approval for many capital funding needs that schools face. \"Technology impacts every part of the student experience,\" the video the board reviewed states. \"The levy would help Roseville area schools enhance safety in areas such as strengthening school security with modern tools, protecting against cyber threats, and helping ensure safe welcoming spaces for students.\"
Board members asked technical questions about levy mechanics. Director Katie Goggins asked whether annual disbursements were fixed; Thompson replied the district is limited to the $6,000,000 annual tranche and cannot draw advances against future years. Board members also discussed what would happen if the levy does not pass: Thompson said the district would likely have to shift costs into the general fund, where technology and safety would compete with teachers, classroom supplies, buses and student supports.
Next steps: the Nov. 4 ballot, community meetings, and the district's web resources. The board certified the preliminary levy by motion and will set a final levy in December, after the election.","The Roseville Area School Board certified a preliminary levy and advanced a ballot measure that would provide $6 million a year for 10 years to fund school safety, cybersecurity, and technology upgrades if approved by voters Nov. 4.","actionData","errors"]
