MONTGOMERY COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION
April 8, 2013
The Montgomery County Board of Education convened in its regular monthly meeting on Monday, April 8, 2013, at 6:30 p.m. Board members were present as follows: Tommy Blake, Vice Chair Bryan Dozier Jesse Hill Ann Long Chairman DeBerry called the meeting to order and asked for a motion to approve the agenda as shown. With a motion from Sandra Mill and a second from Ann Long, the agenda was adopted with unanimous approval from the board with this change. Opening remarks by Chairman DeBerry were about choosing the best person for a position. Sometimes an adversary is a strong person that under other circumstances give a position what it needs. President Lincoln showed this with choosing Stanton as his Secretary of War. A difference of opinion does not make one less than worthy. The Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America was led by Star Elementary Students, Alyssa Dunn and Katelyn Comer. With no one signing up to address the board, the meeting proceeded to the recognitions. A resolution of esteem was presented to the family of Bettye Ruth Cagle, which was as
WHEREAS, our Heavenly Father, in His infinite love and wisdom, saw fit to call home
Bettye Ruth Cagle on March 8, 2013, and
WHEREAS, her services in the cafeteria system of the Educational System of
Montgomery County were a living testimonial of her integrity and skill, and
WHEREAS, her loss will be deeply felt, not only by those with whom she served, but
also throughout her entire community and county.
NOW, THEREFORE, be it resolved that the Montgomery County Board of Education
goes on record in expressing a sense of real loss and regret in her passing; that a copy
of this resolution be conveyed to her family as an indication of our deep sympathy; and
that a copy of the same be filed as a part of the permanent minutes of the board of
education.
Moving on to other recognitions were the NC State University Science and Technology Enriching Lifelong Leadership in Tomorrow’s Endeavors (SATELLITE) Program. Only 50 students in the US are chosen to participate. Five students from East Montgomery High School participated as follows: Jorge Munoz-Morales, Rachel Parks, Braxton Pratt, Carlos Salgado and Camille Smith. Congratulations on this achievement! Next the Destination Imagination group from East Montgomery High School came in 1st Place in the State Competition and will now compete nationally. Those students are: Allegra Wall, Karla Quintero, Diana Lopez, and Tania Vargas. Congratulations and good luck! The meeting proceeded to the consent agenda with Chairman DeBerry asking that the approval of the consent agenda be voted on after the closed session. With no opposition, this was approved. Star Elementary was the school highlighted this month. Principal Teresa Dunn introduced Teachers Linda Thompson and Shirley Collins who gave a presentation and student
video on Poetry Café which gives students experience in writing, composing, and presenting.
All students have talent in this form of activity.

The MOODLE system demonstration was presented by Wade Auman. MOODLE stands for Modular Object-Oriented Dynamic Learning Environment. MOODLE is an online management system which is a blended model with face to face and online function. Students can access it from home with a computer system, which makes it very useful if they are sick. There are many functions to MOODLE for teachers as well as students. So far it seems to have cut down on discipline as well as improve access to lessons and information. The drawbacks are lack of computer systems in the homes and having the time to update the content. Regina Smith and Beth Walker with FirstHealth Hospital Systems spoke on the obesity issues with students in Montgomery County Schools. FirstHealth Montgomery Memorial Hospital Foundation raises funds to meet childrens crisis needs and fund an obesity prevention program for Montgomery County Schools. Their program consists of physical activity, nutrition and behavior modification education. Thank you FirstHealth for your support of our children.

It also addresses what we do if students don’t learn and how to close the gaps. With a motion from Tommy Blake, along with a second from Jesse Hill, the board unanimously approved going into closed session to discuss personnel. Upon reconvening, Chairman DeBerry then asked for a motion to approve the Consent Agenda with an amendment to the personnel report.
