ANNUAL TAX CERTIFICATION Upon a motion by Trustee Balukoff with a second by Trustee Park, the Board of Trustees voted unanimously to approve the following resolution: BOARD OF ADA COUNTY COMMISSIONERS BOARD OF BOISE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS Commissioners: In accordance with Section 9(17) of the Charter of the Independent School District of Boise City, Boise, Idaho, and Section 63-624, Idaho Code, the Board of Trustees, in a Regular Meeting held August 8, 2016, adopted the following resolution with respect to the tax levy for the Independent School District of Boise City for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2016. RESOLUTION WHEREAS, the amount of money required to be raised by special tax on the property in this District for the purpose of maintaining and supporting the schools of the District, paying its obligations, including interest on its bonded indebtedness, and providing a fund for the retirement thereof, for the fiscal year commencing July 1, 2016 and ending June 30, 2017, has been ascertained and determined to be the sum of $90,249,227.

Boise City, there are no limitations upon the maximum levies that such District may make for any of its school purposes. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Clerk of this District shall spread this resolution upon the minutes and certify the above amounts to the County Commissioners for each county wherein any property to the District may lie, to-wit: Boise County and Ada County, Idaho. Sincerely,
Jennette Clark, Clerk-Treasurer Board of Trustees HARD TO FILL SPECIAL EDUCATION POSITIONS Upon a motion by Trustee Greeley with a second by Trustee Balukoff the Board unanimously voted to approve the Hard to Fill Special Education Positions. There is a shortage of candidates in the special education department. Per Idaho Statute 33-1004 the School Board must approve these positions as hard-tofill in order to offer a leadership premium in the event we need to incentivize a candidate to accept a job with the Boise School District. TRUSTEE ELECTION UPDATE Clerk Jennette Clark reported to the Trustees regarding the tasks that have been completed for the 2016 Trustee Election. The election will be held on September 6, 2016. Training for the Chief Judge and the poll workers for each location will be held on August 15, 18 or 19, 2016. DATA PRESENTATION Superintendent Dr. Don Coberly presented a report on the Boise School District Advanced Placement Exams, ABID Enrollment and College Going and Degrees. ISBA RESOLUTION PROCESS Trustee President, Nancy Gregory, suggested that the Trustees work on the ISBA Resolution Process earlier in the year. Trustee Dr. Troy Rohn suggested that a workshop, be dedicated to the process, possibly in April. BOARD/SUPERINTENDENTS COMMENTS Trustee Dr. Troy Rohn ask about the new SBOE Board. Dr. Coberly told the Board that the new Board member, Andy Scoggin, is very positive and open. He feels that they are going in a good direction. Dr. Coberly is worried about where the Career Ladder is headed. Other Districts are using it as a pay scale. Committee structure will be developed after the 2016 Trustee election. Committee meetings for August and September will be held, at the discretion of the chairman, of each committee. ADJOURNMENT There being no further business to discuss, Trustee Rohn made a motion with a second by Trustee Balukoff to adjourn the Board meeting. The Board unanimously agreed at 6:56 pm _________________________________________ PRESIDENT, BOARD OF TRUSTEES ATTEST: _____________________________ August 8, 2016
