Currently has a scope and sequence created through participation in a consortium lead by the Dana Center (2012).
Teachers have had the autonomy to provide lessons and materials of their choosing to meet the standards.

What people are sayingW & W has a clear lesson structure. The timeline is outlined for daily lessons at the front of lesson plan. There is incorporated art, videos, etc. making lessons more approachable to a wider variety of learning styles.
I think that W & W fits with the priorities set forth by the team. The fact that Fundations is a piece of this program will be beneficial since we are familiar with it and have seen successes.
This program is developmentally appropriate and presents content through engaging essential questions that students can easily relate to.

3. MAKE NO MOVES.
• Options then:
• HE can use art, music, and maker space rooms for regular classrooms. (Not ideal as
other NK Els have art and music in separate rooms.
• Purchase portable trailer classrooms. (Great expense and logistical issues. Not sure
the district has enough planning time.)

5TH GRADE IN MIDDLE SCHOOL
Many districts have fifth grade included at middle level including
Jamestown, Chariho, Narragansett, South Kingstown, Portsmouth,
Middletown, and Newport
Chariho has been an example of one elementary school of three ending at
grade 4. 21-22 WMS fifth graders would have the benefit of moving with
new sixth grade and would know roughly 50% of WMS students upon
arrival.

AGENDA REPORTING FORM
TOPIC: SC Approval of Bus repair 4.13.21
BACKGROUND:
The District has a 9 year old International CE Series Bus that needs $25K worth of work to
replace the engine (see attached quote from Sampson's Automotive where the bus is currently
housed). At the 2/16/21 SC meeting, there was a discussion regarding what would be the best
option - fix this 9 year old bus or purchase a new bus.
Unfortunately, during the time we have been seeking an RFP for a new bus and gathering further
data, an 11 year old bus has broken down, needing extensive engine repair work. The total for
the work needed on this 11 year old bus is yet unknown. However, the District must repair one
or both of these buses and must seek approval at this time for repair.
Because this 9 year old bus has less miles and is 2 years newer, it is recommended that for the
now we move forward with repairs to this bus and investigate option for the 11 year old bus,
repair and/or replacement.
Recommend approval.

g. The incident of a breakdown of a school bus or the failure of a Driver/Contractor to complete his/her scheduled run shall not increase the cost to the North Kingstown School Department. If another bus assists, that additional mileage shall not be charged to the School Department nor shall the School Department pay more than the average daily mileage of the bus involved.

n.o.The Supervisor of Transportation will meet with the President of the Association at least twice a year to discuss ways to equalize fees paid to contractors. The first meeting shall be held before the forty-fifth (45th) day of school.
o.p.No contractor or driver shall use a bus for any purpose other than that authorized by the Supervisor of Transportation or his/her designated representative. Unauthorized use of a vehicle governed by this agreement may result in revocation of the contract as it applies to that vehicle or other such measures as the School Committee may deem appropriate. The decision as to the disposition of an instance of unauthorized use rests solely with and at the discretion of the School Department. In the event that the Transportation Office has to obtain a driver for a contractor, for either a Home-to-School route or a field/extracurricular trip, a charge equal to fifty (50%) per cent of the daily rate or scheduled fee may be assessed.
p.Should the Rhode Island Department or Health or any other governmental body require specific cleaning due to Covid-19, the School Committee shall supply each bus with the required cleaning supplies.
2. FIELD TRIPS
a. After field trips are assigned, it shall be the responsibility of the contractor to provide a driver and vehicle for each trip. The contractor must provide the Transportation Office, at least two working days prior to the departure of the trip, with the name of the driver and any other pertinent information. Contractors who refuse a trip, once assigned, may be subject to an assessment equal to the payment for a Category I trip as identified in Addendum B hereto.
b. A payment equal to a Category I trip rate charge, as noted in Addendum B, will be made to a contractor whose bus arrives for a field trip that is subsequently cancelled without prior notification. Conversely, any contractor who fails to fulfill a properly scheduled and assigned trip will be assessed an amount equivalent to a Category I charge.
c. All field trips require the driver and vehicle to remain at the field trip location. An exception to this requirement may be made only after consultation with the individual teacher or coach who requested the trip with the final approval resting solely with the Transportation Office. No extra time or mileage will accrue as a result of a driver/vehicle leaving a trip and returning at a later time.

d. A charge equal to one hour of trip time shall be paid to a contractor in the event that extraordinary post-trip cleaning of the bus is necessary. The client shall be notified at the time that they sign the field trip report that this charge will be assessed. The addition of this charge must be listed separately on the field trip report and is subject to final approval by the Transportation Office.
3. VEHICLES
a. The School Committee shall inform the Association of any anticipated increase or decrease in the overall number of buses to be used to provide service. In the event that the School Committee votes to go out to bid for a new contractor, said contractor will be required to reimburse the independent bus contractor for the Fair Market Value (FMV) of his/her vehicle or pay for any remaining payments on the vehicle, whichever is the greater amount, as long as the original payment schedule is up to date and there are no late payments due.
b. All contractors will submit bus specifications to the School Department for review and approval before any bus, except those buses purchased from an existing contractor, is placed in service. It is the responsibility of each contractor to provide these specifications sufficiently ahead of time to allow for adequate review and approval of the proposed vehicle prior to it being placed in service. Vehicles may be equipped with video camera boxes or devices compatible with the recording system in use and a mobile phone. In the event that the School Committee determines that it will require vehicles to be equipped with devices such as GPS, video cameras, recording system, etc., the Association shall work with the School Committee to obtain said devices.
c. The School Department shall have the authority to remove any vehicle from service for safety reasons. Any vehicle removed from service shall not be allowed to transport students until approved by the School Department and/or the Rhode Island Department of Motor Vehicles as appropriate. It shall be the responsibility of the contractor to provide a spare vehicle during this period, at no additional cost to the School Department. All buses governed by this agreement shall be kept in good operating condition. Any necessary repairs shall be made in a reasonable amount of time at the expense of the contractor concerned.
d. The School Department shall supply diesel fuel for student busing. e. The School Department shall insure and register all buses engaged in providing service under
the terms of this agreement. f. Each contractor is responsible for maintenance and upkeep to the vehicle(s) he/she operates
under this agreement including all parts, fluids (except diesel fuel), tires, labor charges, etc. g. Upon the execution of the Agreement, title to the bus transfers to the School Department and,
upon termination of the Agreement, title reverts to the contractor. However, if the contractor wishes to sell the bus within 3 months after the reversion, the School Department has a right of first refusal.
h. The Association shall provide at least six approved Spare Buses. Spare Buses are to be utilized primarily as back-ups for First Line Buses that become incapacitated. The

Association shall establish internal procedures to insure availability of all Spare Buses to the School Department.
i. The contract period for a newly purchased bus shall be seven (7) years. Thereafter the parties have a mutual five (5) year option to renew.
j. In the event that a used bus is purchased for use as a First Line Bus the following criteria will apply:
1. Vehicle must be diesel powered.
2. The age of the vehicle shall not exceed three (3) years at the time of purchase as determined by model year. An exception to this requirement is allowed for a bus purchased from a NKBCA contractor up to twelve years in age. The balance of the contract life for a NKBCA seller may be transferred to the NKBCA member buyer, all other provisions of this agreement, state law, and NKSD policies apply.
3. The length of a contract with individual contractors, awarded for a used bus will not exceed a total of twelve (12) years from date of manufacture unless approved by the School Committee. Contracts will be awarded for an initial period of seven (7) years minus the age in years of the bus, plus a five (5) year option to renew (i.e. a two year old bus would be awarded a five year initial contract with a five year option to renew).
k. No bus, other than a Spare Bus, will be allowed to operate beyond twelve (12) years unless requested by the NKBCA in writing and with express written approval of the NKSC.
l. Prior to use, the contractor must present evidence that the vehicle has passed all inspections required by the Rhode Island Department of Motor Vehicles and any other agency with jurisdiction over the operation of these busses.
4. SAFETY
a. Monitors: The School Department will provide bus monitors as required. It will be the responsibility of the individual contractor/driver to verify that a bus monitor is present and properly performing his/her duties. If not, the contractor/driver will immediately notify the Transportation Office. The contractor/driver shall work cooperatively with the monitor to ensure compliance with all safety rules and regulations.
b. Drills: School Bus Contractors will perform emergency exit drills, along with a demonstration of the public address system on each bus, twice per school year, with the first such drill to be conducted in September. These drills will be conducted in accordance with the “Guidelines for Conducting Emergency Exit Drills” as set forth in the National Standards for School Bus Operation. Both drills will be individually documented on a Field Trip Report that will be submitted to the Transportation Office with the mileage documentation for the week in which each drill is conducted.
c. Equipment: All safety equipment will be properly mounted and maintained in good working condition at all times. Maintenance of required safety equipment is the responsibility of the individual contractor.

Estimates will be turned in to the Transportation Office and date stamped to verify receipt.
e. The contractor(s) will be informed in a timely fashion of the decision of the School Department and/or insurance carrier to approve or disapprove any claims.
f. In the event of an accident that occurs during the unauthorized use of a vehicle, such use being defined as use for a purpose not specifically authorized by the Supervisor of Transportation, the contractor will be responsible for the repair of any and all damage to the school bus.

The continued failure to submit forms shall be adequate reason to terminate the agreement with the contractor concerned.
k. Contractors are responsible for any eye test necessary for any required or requested examination. The North Kingstown School Department shall incur the cost for regular drug testing of drivers. However, in the event that the District has reason to suspect that a driver is under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol, the driver shall be responsible for the cost of any drug testing required. A refusal by a driver to undergo drug testing shall result in an automatic termination of the driver. Any driver who operates a school bus in service to the School Department will have furnished to their contractors a valid pre-employment drug/alcohol test and completed background check. This information shall be on file with the School Department and will be subject to random testing as required by law. All drivers are required to register on the Department of Transportation Drug and Alcohol Clearinghouse website.
l. The School Committee reserves the right of final approval for every driver operating a bus for the School Department, and may reject any individual. Every contractor must submit the names and addresses of their drivers to the Transportation Office not later than August 1 of each school year for approval.

m. The School Committee reserves the right to engage the services of a different service provider should the Association be unable/unwilling to provide a contractor for any routes that may be needed by the District.
n. Reimbursement for damage to a contracted vehicle caused by passenger vandalism will be limited to a maximum of two hundred dollars ($200.00) per bus per school year. Drivers/Contractors will assist the School Committee, as necessary, in any investigation into such vandalism. Any monies received as restitution will be used to restore, on a dollar-for dollar basis, any deductions made from the “account” for that bus. Contractors will submit proof of vandalism, upon request, prior to any reimbursement being made. Items damaged by normal wear and tear are not subject to replacement/reimbursement under the terms of this paragraph.
o. The Supervisor of Transportation will meet with the President of the Association at least twice a year to discuss ways to equalize fees paid to contractors. The first meeting shall be held before the forty-fifth (45th) day of school.
p. No contractor or driver shall use a bus for any purpose other than that authorized by the Supervisor of Transportation or his/her designated representative. Unauthorized use of a vehicle governed by this agreement may result in revocation of the contract as it applies to that vehicle or other such measures as the School Committee may deem appropriate. The decision as to the disposition of an instance of unauthorized use rests solely with and at the discretion of the School Department. In the event that the Transportation Office has to obtain a driver for a contractor, for either a Home-to-School route or a field/extracurricular trip, a charge equal to fifty (50%) per cent of the daily rate or scheduled fee may be assessed.
q. Should the Rhode Island Department or Health or any other governmental body require specific cleaning due to Covid-19, the School Committee shall supply each bus with the required cleaning supplies.
2. FIELD TRIPS
a. After field trips are assigned, it shall be the responsibility of the contractor to provide a driver and vehicle for each trip. The contractor must provide the Transportation Office, at least two working days prior to the departure of the trip, with the name of the driver and any other pertinent information. Contractors who refuse a trip, once assigned, may be subject to an assessment equal to the payment for a Category I trip as identified in Addendum B hereto.
b. A payment equal to a Category I trip rate charge, as noted in Addendum B, will be made to a contractor whose bus arrives for a field trip that is subsequently cancelled without prior notification. Conversely, any contractor who fails to fulfill a properly scheduled and assigned trip will be assessed an amount equivalent to a Category I charge.
c. All field trips require the driver and vehicle to remain at the field trip location. An exception to this requirement may be made only after consultation with the individual teacher or coach who requested the trip with the final approval resting solely with the Transportation Office. No extra time or mileage will accrue as a result of a driver/vehicle leaving a trip and returning at a later time.
d. A charge equal to one hour of trip time shall be paid to a contractor in the event that extraordinary post-trip cleaning of the bus is necessary. The client shall be notified at the

time that they sign the field trip report that this charge will be assessed. The addition of this charge must be listed separately on the field trip report and is subject to final approval by the Transportation Office.
3. VEHICLES
a. The School Committee shall inform the Association of any anticipated increase or decrease in the overall number of buses to be used to provide service. In the event that the School Committee votes to go out to bid for a new contractor, said contractor will be required to reimburse the independent bus contractor for the Fair Market Value (FMV) of his/her vehicle or pay for any remaining payments on the vehicle, whichever is the greater amount, as long as the original payment schedule is up to date and there are no late payments due.
b. All contractors will submit bus specifications to the School Department for review and approval before any bus, except those buses purchased from an existing contractor, is placed in service. It is the responsibility of each contractor to provide these specifications sufficiently ahead of time to allow for adequate review and approval of the proposed vehicle prior to it being placed in service. Vehicles may be equipped with video camera boxes or devices compatible with the recording system in use and a mobile phone. In the event that the School Committee determines that it will require vehicles to be equipped with devices such as GPS, video cameras, recording system, etc., the Association shall work with the School Committee to obtain said devices.
c. The School Department shall have the authority to remove any vehicle from service for safety reasons. Any vehicle removed from service shall not be allowed to transport students until approved by the School Department and/or the Rhode Island Department of Motor Vehicles as appropriate. It shall be the responsibility of the contractor to provide a spare vehicle during this period, at no additional cost to the School Department. All buses governed by this agreement shall be kept in good operating condition. Any necessary repairs shall be made in a reasonable amount of time at the expense of the contractor concerned.
d. The School Department shall supply diesel fuel for student busing. e. The School Department shall insure and register all buses engaged in providing service under
the terms of this agreement.
f. Each contractor is responsible for maintenance and upkeep to the vehicle(s) he/she operates under this agreement including all parts, fluids (except diesel fuel), tires, labor charges, etc.
g. Upon the execution of the Agreement, title to the bus transfers to the School Department and, upon termination of the Agreement, title reverts to the contractor. However, if the contractor wishes to sell the bus within 3 months after the reversion, the School Department has a right of first refusal.
h. The Association shall provide at least six approved Spare Buses. Spare Buses are to be utilized primarily as back-ups for First Line Buses that become incapacitated. The Association shall establish internal procedures to insure availability of all Spare Buses to the School Department.

i. The contract period for a newly purchased bus shall be seven (7) years. Thereafter the parties have a mutual five (5) year option to renew.
j. In the event that a used bus is purchased for use as a First Line Bus the following criteria will apply:
1. Vehicle must be diesel powered.
2. The age of the vehicle shall not exceed three (3) years at the time of purchase as determined by model year. An exception to this requirement is allowed for a bus purchased from a NKBCA contractor up to twelve years in age. The balance of the contract life for a NKBCA seller may be transferred to the NKBCA member buyer, all other provisions of this agreement, state law, and NKSD policies apply.
3. The length of a contract with individual contractors, awarded for a used bus will not exceed a total of twelve (12) years from date of manufacture unless approved by the School Committee. Contracts will be awarded for an initial period of seven (7) years minus the age in years of the bus, plus a five (5) year option to renew (i.e. a two year old bus would be awarded a five year initial contract with a five year option to renew).
k. No bus, other than a Spare Bus, will be allowed to operate beyond twelve (12) years unless requested by the NKBCA in writing and with express written approval of the NKSC.
l. Prior to use, the contractor must present evidence that the vehicle has passed all inspections required by the Rhode Island Department of Motor Vehicles and any other agency with jurisdiction over the operation of these busses.
4. SAFETY
a. Monitors: The School Department will provide bus monitors as required. It will be the responsibility of the individual contractor/driver to verify that a bus monitor is present and properly performing his/her duties. If not, the contractor/driver will immediately notify the Transportation Office. The contractor/driver shall work cooperatively with the monitor to ensure compliance with all safety rules and regulations.
b. Drills: School Bus Contractors will perform emergency exit drills, along with a demonstration of the public address system on each bus, twice per school year, with the first such drill to be conducted in September. These drills will be conducted in accordance with the “Guidelines for Conducting Emergency Exit Drills” as set forth in the National Standards for School Bus Operation. Both drills will be individually documented on a Field Trip Report that will be submitted to the Transportation Office with the mileage documentation for the week in which each drill is conducted.
c. Equipment: All safety equipment will be properly mounted and maintained in good working condition at all times. Maintenance of required safety equipment is the responsibility of the individual contractor.
d. All new buses purchased to provide service for the School Department shall be equipped with:
