Financial Reports: Supt. Jeremy Tammi and Business Manager Alissa Carlson will meet to discuss budget revisions to be
presented at the February board meeting.

Indus Principal’s Report: We are happy to be back after the holiday break! We left school a little earlier than expected, but we
are happy to be back. The well issues are being addressed. As Mr. Tammi mentioned, the water tested safe. Von is continually
monitoring the situation and changing filters as needed. This project will continue until the ground is thawed enough for the
well drillers to do anything major. We will keep our fingers crossed that our maintenance in the meantime will take care of it.
We also had a pipe burst in the boys locker room. Shannon’s came and determined the pipes did freeze. The heater in the locker
room wasn’t working properly. The belts are being replaced and we should be back in business. As of today, the water is back
on in the boys locker room. I would like to thank Indus staff for continuously doing their part to be flexible as far as
teacher/para coverage within the school. On days where we have nobody available, our staff is more than willing to help out to
make sure our students have what they need. Ms. Lehn and I were able to attend the drug task force meeting on January 4th
with several members of the Koochiching County community. The committee will be organizing a public forum where
individuals can come and learn about the issues the community faces concerning youth drug use. This event will be advertised
through the radio stations and will be held at the Backus Center on Feb. 8th. We have another meeting scheduled for January
18th. Notes from Ms. Cain: The new year is bringing some new changes to the food shelf. Our food delivery date has changed
to the beginning of each month rather than the middle of the month. This is hopefully going to allow us to access a different
variety of food for our customers. We are now getting a fresh produce box every month as one of our bonus boxes. There were
a total of 12 visits for December. Which is a little lower than average due to Christmas Vacation. We are doing some
rearranging of the pantry including adding more shelving and storage. The student part of the pantry is doing extremely well.
We have seen a large increase in visits by the students. We are reaching out to the families of those students we see as “High
Flyers” to the student pantry and making sure we help them as needed. We are also trying a wider variety of food for those
students as well.

Northome Principal’s Report: Welcome back to the new year! Staff and students seemed excited to be back in the building and
together after break. Both staff and students have been taking time to set goals for the upcoming year and semester. Alex from
the Army Recruitment center in Bemidji was here to present Army 101 to our 10th through 12th graders on Monday. There is
no school next Monday, January 16th due to Martin Luther King Day. Northome will host the district Spelling Bee next
Thursday, January 19th. Indus will join us for the bee around 10am and then will join us for lunch before heading back. The
end of quarter 2/ semester 1 is January 20th. We will be taking time to celebrate all of the accomplishments from semester 1.
Our students and staff have done a lot of hard work the first half of the year. We will have our next All School celebration on
Friday. This month we are focusing on living a positive lifestyle and overcoming challenges. I will be visiting each elementary
classroom for our monthly read aloud in the coming days. We will be reading, “Energy Bus,” which ties directly into our theme
of overcoming negativity and overcoming obstacles. Homecoming is planned for the week of January 23rd (as long as the
floors are complete. Student Council has been busy planning events and a pepfest. Teachers are focusing on strategies to be a
Champion for all of our students. This is all about developing relationships and making adjustments to meet the needs of every
individual student. Betsy and I have joined the Koochiching County Juvenile Drug Task Force. I want to invite all of you to
attend the Open Forum on February 8th at 6 pm, the location is TBD. We are also looking at offering a virtual option. The
Golden Apple winner for the month of January is LeAnn Bolhuis. LeAnn is very dedicated to her job, works hard to meet the
needs if her students, and makes extra efforts to check in with her students when needed.

Board Report: None.

Superintendent’s Report: Happy New Year and Congratulations again to our newest Board Members. I wanted to give
the Board an update on Northome Gymnasium Floor. The line painting will be completed by tomorrow and the finishing coats
will be applied starting on Thursday, January 19 th. There will be three coats applied on three consecutive days. Once the final
coat is applied, the floor will need to sit for 7-10 days. We anticipate the floor open for use the week of January 30 th.
Northome Community Ed Report – Current Activities: Grades 3-5 Youth Basketball registration is happening; mostly in
Kelliher at this time due to gym reconstruction. Fancy Frosted Sugar Cookies in early December was a huge success and
we are hopeful to get the instructor back in the spring. Upcoming: Beading. Tentative date was set for January but due to an
illness the instructor needs to reschedule. Senior Defensive Driving: Initial & Refresher. Date/details are being worked out.
PomPoms. Ceramics class. Crazy Quilted Pincushion. Anyone interested in sharing a skill and teaching a community ed class is
encouraged to contact Libby Wickum. Indus Community Ed Report – Indus  Community Ed is planning a few different things
for the upcoming months.  These include bringing back the Indus Ski Trip to Giants Ridge. This is a community favorite and has been highly missed and asked for. I have been talking to Giants Ridge and they are putting together package pricing for
me.  The big problem again is transportation due to we no longer having district busing. I am reaching out to families and to
Reinke bussing to see what our options are. If we can work everything out we are planning to do the trip on Saturday, February
25th. I have been in contact with Stacy Hall from 4H  to do a spring session in March but would like to add a winter session
starting in February as well if we can figure out schedules and transportation. The new year is bringing some new changes to
the food shelf. Our food delivery date has changed to the beginning of each month rather than the middle of the month. This
is hopefully going to allow us to access a different variety of food for our customers. We are now getting a fresh produce box
every month as one of our bonus boxes. There was a total of 12 visit for December. Which is a little lower than average due to
Christmas Vacation. We are doing some rearranging of the pantry including adding more shelving and storage. The student part
of the pantry is doing extremely well. We have seen a large increase in visits by the students. We are reaching out to the
families of those students we see as “High Flyers” to the student pantry and making sure we help them as needed. We are also
trying to a wider variety of food for those students as well.  We are still hoping to have afterschool Rec and some art classes in
the spring depending on staff and teacher availability. As always please reach out to me if you have any questions or ideas.

The next regular monthly board meeting will be held on February 8, 2023 at 7:00 pm at Indus and by ITV.

Moved by Ralph Lewis, seconded by Scott Mai to adjourn at 8:04 pm. Motion carried unanimously.

Indus Transportation Contract Discussion. Notes: Reinke Bus Company will no longer be serving the Indus’ transportation
needs beginning school year 2023-24. Indus transportation bids are open until March 31, 2023. No bids have been received at
this time. Maggert Transportation offered to help provide buses but drivers would still be needed. There are two district buses
available. Scott Mai suggested advertising for bus drivers. Superintendent Jeremy Tammi offered to post job positions for bus
drivers via newspaper and Facebook. Indus has 3 bus routes along with 1 van route and would be in need of four drivers,
possibly three, considering Indus Para Steve Kramer currently drives bus for Reinke Bus Company.

FY23 Budget Discussion. Notes: FY23 revised budget was presented by Superintendent Jeremy Tammi which included ESSER
revenue, a decrease in anticipated timber sales and a final roofing cost. Northome and Indus schools indoor air quality projects,
a new Northome elevator, a Northome gymnasium scoreboard and the Indus wastewater treatment facility needing to be
decommissioned were also discussed.

Indus Principal’s Report: Congratulations to our Spelling Bee Winner, Aiden Smith who represented South Koochiching
County School District in Thief River at the regional Spelling Bee. Aiden attended the spelling bee and took 8th place. Falls
Hunger Coalition is now Koochiching Food Access. Janet Hasbargen retired after 36 years of service. Her last day was Feb.
10th. The school held a small celebration in her honor. The event was well attended and all students helped clean up after the
ceremony was over. Mrs. Holte took our band students to Backus Band Days in International Falls. (2/15) The students got the
opportunity to perform with other local schools and learn what it is like to play in a large ensemble. The freezer compressor on
our large lunch room freezer quit working on the 13th. We had to scramble to save our food. The part will be replaced on
Wednesday the 15th. Students have been cross country skiing and ice skating! It has been so nice out we are enjoying the
weather while it lasts!

Northome Principal’s Report: Last week we had Homecoming. Our theme this year was VS. Winner Takes All. Student
Council hosted a week full of fun and challenging activities. I want to thank everyone that helped out throughout the week as
well as those that supervised the dance. Fun was had by all. We had our All School Celebration last week as well. Students
were recognized for having Positive Attitudes and showing Kindness. Last week was School Counselor Appreciation Week. I
would like to thank Christine Lundin for everything she does to support our students so each of them can be successful. Next
Wednesday is Bus Driver Appreciation Day! We will be showing our appreciation to our amazing bus drivers with cards and
treats. I want to thank each of them for getting our students to and from school safely each day. This week is Kindness Week,
each day students and staff have the opportunity to fill out a heart to recognize someone showing kindness. Names are drawn
each day and recognized on the announcements. Every day is a good day to be kind. February is I Love to Read Month. Our
elementary students have been celebrating all month so far with mystery readers, flashlight reading and lots of reading
challenges. They are working to read enough books so their book chain reaches my office. If they are successful with this, they
will have a big surprise coming their way. The Golden Apple winner for the month is Karl Kallio. He has encountered some of
the grossest jobs but has dealt with it so no one else had to. Karl takes pride in his work which is obvious by how great the
school looks every day. Take a moment and check out the trophy case. He just got done making that look perfect!

Board Report: None.

Superintendent’s Report: A compressor went out on the Indus Freezer over this past weekend.  A part has been ordered with an
estimated cost of part replacement and labor around $3,500 and the plan was to have the compressor repaired today. In the
meantime, a chest freezer was purchased from Menards to store the frozen goods. Northome school and the City of Northome
had an unplanned power outage on Monday, February 13th.  The power went out around 10:30AM.  We were in
communication with North Itasca throughout the morning and they could not give a time frame when the power would be
restored.  I made the decision around 12:00 to have an early dismissal since there were no lights in the building and water
pressure was an issue.  Northome students were dismissed at 1:00PM.  The Northome School had a roof leak with the warmer
temperatures. I contacted Nelson’s Roofing and they send a crew up to take a look on Monday. They reported that they found some T-Seams around a drain that needed additional caulking. Our school district has registered for three Virtual Career Fairs:
Minnesota Educators Career Fair on March 23rd and April 13 th , UMD/UofW Superior Virtual Career Fair on April 6 th . Waiting
on a response regarding Saint Cloud’s availability for March 3rd. I would like to thank Ms. Mayer, Mr. Bowles and Ms. Robar
for their willingness to help out with the Career Fairs. We are anticipating a number of openings during the 2023-2024 school
year and our hope is by attending some of these events we can recruit candidates to fill the positions. With our school
cancellation today, our Indus school will need to make up a student contact day since we have exhausted the allocated 5
eLearning Days and the two built in “snow days” in our school calendar. I have been in contact with Ms. Gerard and we are
looking at the March 6 th professional development date as a possible student contact make-up date.

The next regular monthly board meeting will be held on March 8, 2023 at Indus and by ITV.

Moved by Scott Mai, seconded by Ralph Lewis to adjourn at 7:57 pm. Motion carried unanimously.

ice ready. Our National Honor Society is having coin wars next week as a fundraiser for the state convention. NHS also has
two Birchdale breakfast fundraisers coming up scheduled for the 8th and 15th of April. We were lucky to have former student,
and potential future teacher, Brian Pearson come and speak with students on Monday the 6th. He taught the students some
Ojibwe vocabulary and culture. The students were excited to learn some new words and had lots of questions.

Northome Principal’s Report: We had a successful day and evening of conferences. We had one of the best turn outs that we
have had since COVID. I want to thank all of our families that took the time to attend. With February being I Love to Read
Month, we had lots of busy readers. Congratulations to our top readers in elementary. They will be treated to breakfast with Ms.
Lehn on Friday. Our elementary students read a total of 2,389,586 words. A group of 7th and 8th graders traveled to Thief

Financial Report: The district received the most recent Timber Sales check of $421,708.31 on 4/12/23 with an unexpected
increase of $131,738.85 compared to the current budget.

Indus Principal’s Report: Despite everything going on, Indus is more of a family than ever. Emotions are high but we are doing
what we can to support our school community, especially our students. On April 6th, Our plumbing students got to tour the
local trades job site for the new grocery store in the Falls in the old Kmart building. It was an excellent learning experience and
a chance to make some local connections. Our elementary students enjoyed our ice rink as much as they could getting in as
many skating sessions as possible. They also had the opportunity to set up some maple taps across the street from the school.
We are very excited for spring! We are just finishing up our MCA testing with one more session tomorrow and only a few
make up tests to go. Our Food Pantry is busier than ever! We had over 312 visits last month! Softball and Track are all
underway! Trap begins practice this Friday. We are hoping the spring melt cooperates so we can get some games in! AR Report from Amber Peterson – We have accomplished reading 208 books throughout our AR sessions. I have been able to see
the students progress in reading ranges and abilities. We will have completed our book and it is getting sent out for publishing
on Apr 21, 2023. We have focused our projects on STEAM education standards. We have watched a pumpkin rot, while
practicing observation and documenting skills. Observation sheets for time it takes Halloween candy to dissolve in diverse
liquids. We’ve utilized candy thermometers and made cotton candy with diverse sugars. Creating diverse art from magazine
collages representing settings to paintings reflecting images of characters, as well as pastel art of outdoors and wildlife. Our top
points go to Evan James, Adlyn Hazelton, and Eleanor Gerard. Special acknowledgements to Adlyn Hazelton, Benjamin Robar,
and Cadence Ross for passing all tests attempted. It’s been a great year for AR!

Northome Principal’s Report: MCA’s are up and running. Due to the weather last week we had to do some rescheduling but we
should be on track now. I want to thank Christine Lundin, Corey White and all of the staff that have been helping to administer
these. Survivor: Northome Edition MCA prep competition is still going. Two teams have been voted off and are on redemption
island. They still have time to get back in the game. Our next challenge will be on Friday afternoon!
Our high school band and choir students traveled to Park Rapids today to participate in a Large Group Ensemble Competition.
Both groups did great receiving a Superior rating. Congratulations to students, Ms. Dahlin and Ms. Aas. This Friday we will
hold April’s All School Celebration. We will take time to honor all of our students and staff for all of the ways they show
Mustang Pride each day. Ann Siats from the American Legion Auxiliary will also be here to present the winners of the
Americanism Essay contest. The PBIS theme for the month of April is, “Find your joy.” We have been focusing on mindfulness
and self care. The PBIS team and students have been working on how to integrate mindfulness and calm into our daily lives at
home and school. This Friday, Alicia Randall from Koochiching County will be here to present to our high school students on
suicide prevention and mental health. Next Thursday we will hold our Elementary Music Concert at 5:30 with our Springtastic
Festival and dinner to follow. I want to thank everyone that has volunteered to host a booth at the carnival.

Board Report: Scott Mai requested more time to consider other financial options and planning prior to considering closing
Indus School. Scott Mai also spoke of the importance of the Indus school to the community. Scott Mai requested to make a
motion but the request was rejected by Chairperson Bob Stueven. Ralph Lewis discussed the district’s financial status and
questioned how the district could be in deficit based on the current budget numbers. A BRIC meeting will be held on 4/13/23 in
which Bob Stueven, Doug Jourdan, Jeremy Tammi and Betsy Gerard will attend.

Superintendent’s Report: Interest Rates on the Cash/Investment Report have been updated. The rates from the MSDLAF
change daily. Information about the “Horse Barn” facility that has been floated is untrue.  The amount that is being referred to
is $745,000 that was coded to UFARS 520, which is for the Indus and Northome roofing project.  A payment of $707,750 and
$37,250 (retainage) were sent to Nelson’s roofing.  This equals the $745,000 that has been questioned and coded under UFARS
520. Another comment was made about ESSER/Covid-19 dollars and that the District paid MDE back these funds and never
received the funding.  This is not accurate.  What ended up happening is the ESSER/Covid money was awarded at the end of
FY21 and the District pulled these funds into our system.  A majority of the expenses then occurred in FY22, but since the
funds were pulled in FY21, we needed to pay MDE the amount back that was initially pulled in FY21 so MDE could then place
this money into FY22 and the revenue would match the expenses occurring in the same fiscal year. A comment was made
regarding the MSHSL Transfer Rule.  The MSHSL does have rules in place, that at times, can prohibit students from willingly
transferring from one HS to another with a consequence of sitting out one year of athletic eligibility.  However, there are
provisions in place that do allow for transfers based on special circumstances.  One provision being the principals and activities
director from both the sending and receiving schools agree that circumstances exist which warrant a review of varsity eligibility
by the MSHSL.  One such circumstance would be in the event of a school closing. A staff member brought forth the comment
about not having Mental Health support for students and staff in the Indus Building.  This is not accurate.  Ashley Briggs from
Northwoods Counseling is in the Indus building three days per week. A comment was made on April 3, at the Public Hearing
regarding Timber and Con Con revenue.  Highlighted are two amounts that were not included in the original report I received. 
The 2018 Volstad Revenue in the amount of $11,530.58 and $233.57 of Tax Forfeit revenue in FY22.  I did not have the two
numbers of $11,530.58 and $233.57 for my initial report. 
County Timber Revenue    
Fiscal Year 18       $873,132 plus $11,530.58 Volstad 
Total=$884,663.61
 
Fiscal Year 19       $788,281

they show excellence in. We will have this displayed in the Commons. We held conferences on Monday afternoon and evening.
Teachers spent time exploring and learning about taking our instruction outdoors to the school forest. Thank you to Ms. Trisko
and all of the students that shared our community’s history through the Cemetery Tour. What a great project! CLIMB Theatre
was here last week to visit the Pre-k through grade six classes. They presented on showing resilience and owning up to our
mistakes. We had our first all school celebration last Friday. It’s always a great time to come together and celebrate all of the
positives going on within our school. The sixth grade class has cleaned out the garden for the season and had quite a bounty!
The high school teachers have started a book study. We are reading the book, Disruptive Thinking in the Classroom.
The Golden Apple winner for the month of September is Lauren VanBeusekom! Lauren stepped into a new role as our fifth
grade teacher and has done so with stride. Even on the tough days, she continues to show up with a smile and compassion for
her students. We are lucky to have her on our team!

I would like to invite all School Board Members to join us if you are able.  The Golden Apple winner for the month of
November was Jenny Moen. Jenny is a fantastic teacher and is doing a great job with her new role of being a high school
teacher, along with working in the elementary. She takes on other roles at school and works hard to ensure that each and every
student feels safe and happy. Jenny is a great person to lean on and helps with whatever she can!
