Siuslaw School District 97J Board of Director Goals 2010-2011 School Year
1. The Board, with a commitment to building excellent schools and educating all
students to their potential, will be proactive in preserving the emphasis of funding
to the classrooms, i.e.: Teachers who provide the instruction and growth in
student learning and achievement, classroom resources and structure, and class
sizes.
We advise Administration to explore efficiencies in the education system
to address predicted budget deficiencies and to explore additional funding
opportunities.
We encourage excellence in teaching by facilitating broadened
certifications and teacher development.
We direct administrators to conduct effective evaluations and we will hold
administrators, staff and teachers accountable for student achievement.
2. The Board emphasizes improvement in student performances in Math, Reading
and Writing as published in the annual OAKS Accountability Report. Over the
next 3 years the Board expects the following:
Math – 80% meets grade level in OAKS Testing
Reading – 90% meets grade level in OAKS Testing
Writing – 80% meets grade level in OAKS Testing
(The Board recognizes that OAKS test results are one measure of achievement and that
other measurements of student achievement are important including the professional
judgments of teachers in their determination of student grades.)
3. The Board will continue to work on Local, State, and Federal levels to achieve
fiscal stability for the Siuslaw School District by maintaining at least an 8%
ending fund balance by June 30, 2013. The Board will increase efforts to
influence legislation that promotes additional funding and resources for our
student’s education.
4. The Board will develop strategies to improve community involvement,
communication, and relationships with parents and community groups that are not

talents, has value and can learn.
We believe in high standards, high expectations, and accountability for all.

CHARTER SCHOOLS
Summary
In 2009, the Oregon Legislature enacted
Senate Blll167 (SB 767), significantly
updating existing chafier school laws. SB
767 focused on a "virlual public charter
school," where instruction is based online.
SB 767 set forth new requirements for
virtual public chafter and all charter schools
generally regarding oversight and reporting,
including requiring they have a sound
financial management plan.
In response, OSBA updated LBE-AR Public Charter Schools, defining a "virtual
public charter school" and setting out its
extra requirements such as extra academic
achievement requirements and specific
plans for face-to-face encounters between
students and teachers. Regarding changes
applicable to all charler schools, the AR
spells out requirements for a sound financial
management plan, and amends approval,
renewal and termination proceedings to
rnclude a review of this plan.
Lastly, OSBA updated the citations under
Board policy LBE - Public Charler Schools.

“Qualified School Construction Bond” (“QSCB”) in accordance with Sections 54A and 54F of the Code,
and the officers of the District are hereby authorized to make all certifications and representations
reasonably required by said Sections 54A and 54F of the Code to demonstrate that the Financing
Agreement is a “Qualified School Construction Bond.” The District irrevocably elects to have Section
6431(f) apply and it will utilize the direct payment option (the “Direct Payment”) for the QSCB Financing
Agreement pursuant to which the Federal Government will make a direct payment equal to the lesser of
100% of the interest on the Financing Agreement or the amount of the tax credit which would have been
attributable to the Financing Agreement if such tax credit was determined at the applicable credit rate
18
under Section 54A(b)(3) of the Code. The Executing Official or a designee of the Executing Official is
authorized to enter into an agreement with the Trustee to file, receive and invest the Direct Payments.
Section 6.
Further Authority. The District shall, and the Executing Official is hereby
authorized and directed to, take such action, expend such funds and execute such other documents,
certificates and instruments including, without limitation, any intercept agreements and bond purchase
agreements, as may be necessary or desirable to carry out and comply with the intent of this Resolution
and to carry out, comply with and perform the duties of the District with respect to the Financing
Agreement and Intercept Agreement. The Executing Official is authorized to pay costs of issuance for
the financing in excess of the amount allowed to be borrowed as such Executing Official deems
reasonable.
Section 7.
Reimbursement of Prior Expenses. The District hereby declares its official intent
to reimburse itself with the proceeds of the Financing Agreement for any of the Expenditures incurred by
it prior to the issuance of the Financing Agreement. The District understands that proceeds of the
Financing Agreement may only be used to reimburse the District for Expenditures paid no earlier than the
earlier of (a) the date that the District declared its intent to reimburse Expenditures with the proceeds of
Qualified School Construction Bonds or (b) the date of the adoption of this resolution, but in no event
may the proceeds of the Financing Agreement be used to reimburse the District for Expenditures made
earlier than sixty (60) days prior to the date of the adoption of this resolution. The District further
understands that the use of proceeds of the Financing Agreement to reimburse an Expenditure may occur
no later than eighteen (18) months after the date of such Expenditure.
Section 8.
Security. The full faith and credit of the District are hereby pledged to the
payment of the Financing Agreement. The District shall use all legally available funds, including any
Direct Payments, and all taxing power available to it under the law, subject to the limitations in Sections
11 and 11(b), Article XI of the Oregon Constitution and any limitations which may hereafter be imposed
by law for payment of the Financing Agreement.
Section 9.
Effective Date. This Resolution shall take effect and be in full force and effect
from and after its passage and approval.

(1) Annual Trustee Fee includes administration of account and yield calculation services. First semi-annual administration payment made in COI.
(2) To be conservative, we have assumed that districts pay 1% supplemental interest. Annual costs do not factor in interest earnings districts may
realize if a sinking fund is used.
(3) 17 year amortization is the maximum allowed by the IRS as of August 2010. Actual amortization may be shorter or longer based on school district
preference and the maximum allowable maturity on the date of sale.

Qualified School Construction Bonds – General Information

General Bond Primer
Tax‐exempt bonds
o This is how most school districts issue bonds. Bondholder
receives repayment of principal and interest.
interest Interest is not
subject to federal or state income taxes.
Taxable bonds
o Bondholder receives repayment of principal and interest.
However, interest is subject to federal (not state) income
taxes School districts have used taxable bonds to fund
taxes.
pension liabilities and non‐public purpose projects.
Tax credit bonds
o In theory, bondholder receives repayment of principal but
does not receive interest on bond. Instead, bondholder is
entitled to a federal tax CREDIT which leads to a direct
reduction in the bondholder’s tax liability.

In its original format, QSCBs were tax‐credit bonds that were supposed
to provide zero cost financing to school districts for capital
improvements. Similar to older QZAB program that began in 1997.

Instead of investors receiving a tax credit, the federal
government sends issuers an interest subsidy up to 100% of the
tax credit rate published on the sale date of the bonds.
Similar to Build America Bonds (BABs) (another ARRA program)
which have been very successful
Benefits of new program format:
o Significant and established market of buyers – the taxable market
absorbed $1.5 trillion in new issues in 2009.
o Wide understanding of bond type, broad secondary market.
o Has brought down cost of program significantly.

Calculation of Subsidy
QSCB subsidy paid for each interest payment date.
QSCB subsidy equal to lesser of:
o Interest payment calculated per maturity
o Amount of interest calculated per maturity using tax credit rate as of the sale date: https://www.treasurydirect.gov/GA‐SL/SLGS/selectQTCDate.htm.
Amount of subsidy will be based on difference in interest rate on a maturity by maturity basis.
Each maturity will has its own unique interest rate. In general, the longer the time to maturity, the higher the rate. 9

compensate investors for risk

interest paid by issuers on the securities, the IRS wants to ensure that
interest rates on subsidized issues are at, and not excessively above, "fair

value " This concern is addressed through a limitation on the
price at which the subsidized securities can be initially sold.
The IRS wants issuers to track secondary market trading of securities to
be comfortable that the interest rates being paid on the securities
weren't prohibitively high: the IRS has suggested that secondary market
trading data that shows a pattern of "flipping" the securities for higher
prices shortly after pricing the securities could be evidence that the
interest rates on the securities was set too high and the fair market value
price for that securities was in excess of the price limit for that security.
Risk of IRS scrutiny is decreased if securities are sold to "buy

customers who intend to hold the security as an investment rather than
those whose primary intent is to resell or "flip" the securities at a higher
price shortly after its purchase; this preference for a subset of purchasers

impact of causing rates to increase.

Why Pool?
Difficult to sell small QSCB allocations for Full Faith and Credit structures
and high cost of issuance would offset benefit of QSCB.
OSBA was successful in obtaining legislation to authorizing districts to
enter into intercept agreements with ODE. Agreement effectively allows
State to make debt service payments on behalf of Districts out of SSF
f d
funds.
Intercept agreement levels the playing field between districts and allows
the pool to obtain a bond rating of “Aa2,”
Aa2, the same rating assigned to
the OSBA PERS Bonds.
The Series 2010A QSCB Pool was sold with a net effective interest rate
of 0% however recent trends may result in somewhat higher rates on
the second pooled QSCB issue.

From:
Mr. Davis
Date:
August 11, 2010
Background:
Attached are revisions to policies and administrative rules that have been
recommended by Oregon School Board Association. The changes are highlighted by
shading and most are required due to changes in state or federal laws. A summary
from OSBA is also attached. We tend to call these types of changes “housekeeping”
as they do not necessarily change the intent of the policy.
Recommendation:
Administration recommends you approve these policy changes as presented.
Resolution # 081110-6b – Administering Medications
Be it Resolved that the Siuslaw School District Board of Directors adopt following revised
policies as presented:
• JHCD Administering Noninjectable Medications to Students
• JHCD-AR Administering Noninjectable Medications to Studends
• JHCDA Administering Injectable Medications to Students

MEDICATIONS
Summary
The State Board of Education revised OAR
58 1-021-0037 addressing the administering
of prescription and nonprescription
medication to students. The revision
redefines "physician" to include only those
licensed by the state of Oregon, defines
"qualified trainers" and revises training and
licensing language. OSBA added bracketed
language reflecting best practice to include
parent signature on protocols and designated
staff training for medication disposal (i.e.,
needles and glass).

Selected Sample Policy
Code: JHCD
Adopted:
Administering Noninjectable Medicines to Students**/*
The district recognizes that administering of medication to students and self-medication may be necessary
when the failure to take such medication would jeopardize the health of the student or the student would
not be able to attend school if medication was not made available during school hours. Consequently,
students may be permitted to take noninjectable prescription or nonprescription medication at school, on a
temporary or regular basis.
When directed by a physician or other licensed health care professional, students grades K-12 will be
allowed to self administer medication. A medical protocol regarding each student who self administers
medication will be developed, signed by a physician or other licensed health care professional [and parent]
and kept on file. Permission for self administered medication may be revoked at any time if the student
violates policy or medical protocol.
All requests for the district to administer medication to a student shall be made by the parent in writing.
Requests shall include the written instructions of the physician for the administration of a prescription
medication to a student or the written instructions of the parent for the administration of a nonprescription
medication to a student. A prescription label will be deemed sufficient to meet the requirements for
written physician instructions.
The district shall designate school staff authorized to administer medication to students. Training shall be
provided as required by law.
The district reserves the right to reject a request to administer prescription or nonprescription medication
when such medication is not necessary for the student to remain in school.
This policy and administrative regulation shall not prohibit, in any way, the administration of recognized
first aid to students by district employees in accordance with established state law, Board policy and
procedures.
The superintendent shall develop administrative regulations as needed to meet the requirements of law,
Oregon Administrative Rules and for the implementation of this policy. Regulations will include
provisions for student self-medication.

medication, who may experience allergic reactions, or suffer from hypoglycemia, asthma or diabetes,
epinephrine, glucagon or other medication as prescribed by a physician and allowed under Oregon Law
(OAR 851-047-0030) may be administered by means of injection to students by trained staff in situations
when a licensed health care professional is not immediately available.

allowed to self administer medication. A medical protocol regarding each student who self administers
injectable medication will be developed, signed by a physician or other licensed health care professional
[and parent] and kept on file. Permission for self administered medication may be revoked if the student
violates policy or medical protocol.
All requests for the district to administer injectable medication to a student shall be made by the parent in
writing. Requests shall be accompanied by the physician’s order for administering epinephrine, glucagon,
or other medication as allowed by law. A prescription label will be deemed sufficient to meet the
requirements for a physician’s order for epinephrine, glucagon or other medication.
The district may designate staff authorized to administer epinephrine and glucagon or other medication as
allowed under Oregon law. Training shall be provided as required by law in accordance with approved
protocols as established by Oregon Department of Human Services, Health Services. Staff designated to
