Since this time, specific measures of success have been identified for all goal areas. The attached document provides a status report for each of the identified strategies. The identified measures are also included on this document. Administration will bring progress reports to the Board each month of the school year. Status may include: Completed, On Target, Shift, Abandoned, or Pending Launch. Any strategies that indicate a shift or abandoned status will be discussed in detail with the Board of Education. Request Administration requests that the Board review the monthly updates for September 2025 during their September 29, 2025 Regular Meeting. Rationale It is important that the Board be involved in reviewing the progress of the Strategic Plan’s identified goals. This reporting structure provides for an engaging and transparent process for both the Board, staff, and community members.

Conscious Campus Contract (Peterson) Meeting Sep 29, 2025 - Regular Meeting Category 10. OLD BUSINESS Type Action Preferred Date Sep 29, 2025 Absolute Date Sep 29, 2025 Fiscal Impact Yes Dollar Amount $8,500.00 Budgeted Yes Budget Source Gorter Family Foundation Donation Recommended Action Motion to approveConscious Campus contract in the amount of $8,500, funded by a Gorter Family Foundation donation Abstract Administration is respectfully requesting the Board of Education to approve a contract with Conscious Campus for Mr. Ken E. Nwadike, Jr. to provide student presentations and to meet with student leaders. This request will result in expenditures in the amount of $8,500 and will be paid using funds from a generous donation from the Gorter Family Foundation. Background Ken E. Nwadike, Jr., is one of the nation’s top motivational speakers. He has spoken at hundreds of schools and business conferences, inspiring students and professional groups of all ages to be the change that they wish to see in society. Best known for his viral videos on Facebook and YouTube, which have reached hundreds of millions of views, during Ken’s keynote speeches, he inspires students, educators, and business professionals to make a positive impact in their schools, workplace, and community. Nwadike Jr., has been featured on CNN, FOX, New York Times, Boston Globe, San Diego Union-Tribune, Buzzfeed, NBC, USA Today, and many other major news sites. Here is a link to his site https://freehugsproject.com/ Request Have Kenneth E. Nwadike Jr, Free Hugs Project, return back to RLHS to present to our students in two separate presentations and then meet in smaller groups with our student leaders. Rationale We had great success with the presentations from Ken with the freshman class for the last 4 years. Ken’s background resonates with our students as he was someone who struggled growing up with being homeless, moving around to different schools, and struggling with fitting in. Students see that no matter what obstacles Ken had in his life and things working against him, he rose above and made something out of himself and his situation. In his presentations to the freshmen, he addresses kindness and how to deal with tough situations and rise above to bring a positive atmosphere. He highlights that even in the darkest times, you can be the light. Considerations Students reactions and questions were so focused and well thought out and in the theater full of 300 students, you could hear a pin drop – it was a sign that not only were students listening but taking in what Ken was saying. Students stayed after the presentation to get his information and asked for permission to email him if they needed advice. Ken did an awesome job at talking with students about leaning on extracurriculars and staff in the building. Many students followed up with their counselors after the presentation to meet with them to get to know them better because they realized they could be a good support after his talk. I got many emails from students following his presentation asking if he was coming back. Finance Committee reviewed this proposal at their August 25, 2025 meeting. Connection to Strategic Plan Social Emotional Development: Review the existing social-emotional growth curriculum supports, resources and effectiveness; make recommendations for enhancement and improvement. By bringing in Ken, we are meeting the needs of our students in multiple and unique ways. We are hitting on the strategic plan for MTSS by providing a Tier 1 intervention for all freshman students. In addition to MTSS, the strategic plan for the district has goals relating to SEL and social emotional needs are being addressed within all presentations with Ken as his whole message is about being a positive citizen and making change in positive ways. Potential Cost Breakdown & Funding Source This request will result in expenditures in the amount of $8,500 and will be paid using funds from a generous donation by the Gorter Family Foundation in connection with the goal of getting students to think beyond the doors at RLHS and setting plans for the future. Recommendation We would love nothing more than to bring back Ken Nwadike Jr to RLHS because he had a positive impact in his short time here. We would like to continue the tradition of bringing Ken to our campus, as an annual speaker. We believe that with the words of wisdom from an outside source like Ken, it can truly make an impact on students who are not only excelling but also those who are having a difficult time finding a positive path to follow.

America's Action Territory Order (Peterson) Meeting Sep 29, 2025 - Regular Meeting Category 10. OLD BUSINESS Type Action Preferred Date Sep 29, 2025 Absolute Date Sep 29, 2025 Fiscal Impact Yes Dollar Amount $6,000.00 Budgeted Yes Budget Source Student Council Activity Account Recommended Action Motion to approve order with America's Action Territory for the 2026 Post Prom Event Abstract Administration respectfully requests the Board of Education to approve an order with America's Action Territory. Expenditures related to this request in the approximate amount of $6,000 (200 students at a cost of $30 per student) will be budgeted to the Student Council Activity Account. Background Each year, members of Student Council and sponsors look for a venue to host an exciting Post Prom experience. In previous years, this event has been hosted at Timber Ridge when Prom was scheduled at the Grand Geneva. Unfortunately, this venue was not available. Student Council has selected Action Territory, which will offer an excellent experience for our students and is also conveniently located near the Grand Geneva. Request Round Lake High School administration is seeking approval from the Board of Education to hold the 2026 Post Prom event at Action Territory which is located in Kenosha, Wisconsin. Rationale Action Territory offers a wide variety of activities for students to take part in after Prom. Students can enjoy activities such as go-karts, mini golf, laser tag, and late night snacks. Considerations The event registration has been reviewed and approved by Brian Peterson. If there are more or less than the anticipated 200 students, Action Territory will either offer a refund or charge RLHS $30 per student accordingly. This item was reviewed by the Finance Committee on August 25, 2025. Potential Cost Breakdown & Funding Source This request will result in expenditures in the amount of approximately $6000 and will be budgeted to the Student Council Activity account at the conclusion of the event. This amount could potentially decrease/increase based on the number of students in attendance. Recommendation Administration respectfully recommends approving this order with America's Action Territory for the 2026 Post Prom Event.

Background Each year, the RLHS Student Council plans for and implements those plans for Homecoming events that culminates in a dance at the end of the week. They have had different DJs work these dances over the years, and have used different ones based upon feedback from the students. Request The request is for the RLAS Board of Education Finance Committee to review the contract for Monster Entertainment to work the 2025 RLHS Homecoming Dance on October 4, 2025. Rationale Monster Entertainment has worked dances for surrounding area schools and came highly recommended to Student Council Leadership by Warren Township High School who has used them in the past. Considerations We have reviewed the staging needs with the DJ and have confirmed that the High School will be putting the tarp flooring down to protect the gym floor. We also have received an updated Certificate of Insurance that lists the District as an additional insured body in case there are any issues. Potential Cost Breakdown & Funding Source Expenditures related to this request in the amount of $2,500 will be budgeted to the Student Council Activity Account.

FY26 Budget for Adoption (Ambs-Soule) Meeting Sep 29, 2025 - Regular Meeting Category 10. OLD BUSINESS Type Action Recommended Action Motion to adopt the Fiscal Year 2026 Budget as presented, in accordance with the Illinois School Code, and authorize Administration to execute all necessary documentation Abstract - Board of Education Policy 4:10 states that each September, the Board adopts a proposed budget calendar, indicating dates for presentation by the Superintendent of receipts, estimates, preliminary expenditure recommendations by funds, and major Board actions affecting the budget. The District’s fiscal year runs from July 1 through June 30. In compliance with this policy, the Superintendent presented the tentative budget on August 25, 2025, with explanation and recommendations for the FY26 budget. Background - The tentative budget was placed on public display beginning August 28, 2025, both at the Finance Department located in Old National Bank and on the District’s website, and remained on display for at least 30 days as required. Notice of this public hearing was published in Lake County New Sun on August 27, 2025, satisfying the requirements of Illinois School Code (105 ILCS 5/17-1). As in prior years, Round Lake Area Schools CUSD #116 continues to be identified as a Tier 1 district under the Evidence-Based Funding (EBF) model. The FY2026 budget reflects updated payroll adjustments following the September 15 payroll cycle, incorporates all known revisions and corrections, and is presented tonight for adoption. Request - That the Board of Education conduct the scheduled public hearing, receive public comment, and adopt the Fiscal Year 2026 Budget at the regularly scheduled Board meeting on Monday, September 29, 2025, at 7:00 p.m. Rationale - Illinois law requires that the tentative budget be displayed for not less than 30 days, with proper public notice announcing its availability for inspection and the time and place of the public hearing. The Board must adopt the final budget no later than September 30. Adoption of the FY2026 budget fulfills these legal obligations and establishes the District’s official spending plan for the fiscal year. Considerations - Compliance: Tentative budget displayed August 28 – September 29, 2025; notice published in compliance with School Code. Adjustments: Final budget reflects revisions following the September 15 payroll and updated estimates for EARL members. Public Transparency: Both the original tentative budget (August 25) and the revised tentative budget (September 2025) were made available for public inspection. Next Steps: Upon adoption, the budget will be filed with the Regional Office of Education and ISBE as required. Connection to Strategic Plan - Theme E: Securing the Future Potential Cost Breakdown & Funding Source - The FY2026 budget reflects the District’s anticipated revenues and expenditures across all funds for the fiscal year. Recommendation - It is the recommendation of the Administration that the Board of Education: Conduct the public hearing as noticed. Close the public hearing upon conclusion of public comment. Adopt the Fiscal Year 2026 Budget as presented, in accordance with the Illinois School Code, and authorize Administration to execute all necessary documentation.

Music Program Trip to New York City (Peterson) Meeting Sep 29, 2025 - Regular Meeting Category 11. NEW BUSINESS Type Information Abstract This Executive Summary Memo provides a request to approve a trip to New York City in the Spring of 2027. It is typical for a music program to travel once every two years. This provides incentive for students to stay in the music ensembles and encourages new students to join band and choir. It is our intention to schedule a college visit along the route to allow students to work with a collegiate clinician they otherwise would not have access to, in addition to performances in well known and outstanding venues within the city. Additionally, this exposes the program to an audience outside of the Round Lake community, and is another step towards building a nationally renowned music program. Background Over the past few years the program has traveled to many locations to share what is going on with the Round Lake Music Program and provide students with many cultural experiences. During these trips, students get a chance to visit new places and perform for new audiences. They take part in parades, workshops, and other Music-centered activities that enhance their musical experiences beyond what they can possibly experience in the day-to-day classroom experience. In order to meet student demand, we are planning to pursue a Walt Disney World trip every four years and alternate between two other musically significant locations, New York City and New Orleans on off years. We want to ensure that all students have the opportunity to participate in a Disney trip during their HS career if they are enrolled for all four years in a music class. Currently, our Jazz Program across the district is rebuilding and shows great potential for future growth; as such, we are opting to tentatively plan for our next New Orleans trip to 2031. Previous trips: ● 2015 - Nashville ● 2017 - Disney World ● 2019 - New Orleans ● 2023 - New York City ● 2025 - Walt Disney World Request We are requesting approval of the proposed 2027 New York City trip. Rationale Students will be exposed to a wealth of information during this trip including rehearsal techniques, proper sound production and quality, different aspects of musicianship, and the development of music. They will be evaluated prior to our departure on their performance since they will be performing in public venues. The students will also share and present information after our return to other music classes and students that did not join us. Students will also go through clinics with professional directors and instructors as part of the experience. Considerations Personnel/Chaperones: Michael J. West, Director of Bands, 6-12 Fine Arts Department Chair Bobby Olson, Director of Choirs Matt Weber, Music Teacher Jamie Dormody, District Color Guard Coach Additional Chaperones TBD based upon number of students going (10-to-1 ratio) Entourage Management Travel Company will provide a dedicated tour guide Timeline: ● September/October 2025 – Proposal Submitted to RLAS BOE & Announcement of trip to students ● Fall 2025 ○ Fine Arts Boosters Collaboration to determine additional fundraising opportunities for students beyond the typical fundraisers. ● Fall 2025/Spring 2026 ○ Fundraising continues (existing money in student accounts can be applied) ○ Prices finalized, Trip Registration opens post-Spring Break 2026 ● Fall 2026/Spring 2027 ○ Fundraising continues ○ Final Payment due January 2027 ○ Final Parent Meetings, Pre Trip (one to two weeks pre-departure) ○ After school rehearsals planned for the ensembles in Spring 2027 ● March 18-23, 2027 ○ Trip to New York City, including specific Band and Choir workshops with professional collegiate clinicians along the way (TBD). Performances will vary depending upon availability, but in the past, have included the BandShell in Central Park and St. John the Divine Cathedral. Similar performance venues would be considered for this trip. ○ These dates were chosen to avoid conflict with the championship for the Winter Guard season (many band and choir students crossover with this activity). Strategic Plan Association Goal 7: Will implement enrichment programs to promote and enhance academic development and cultural enrichment. Potential Cost Breakdown Entourage Management, our established tour company that specializes in travel for school music groups, has given us two different price range breakdowns for this proposed travel. These prices are not final and are subject to change based on final pricing for transportation and specific attractions and Broadway shows attended. ● Motorcoach Transportation (approximately 6 days, 5 nights) ○ $1,400 - $1,600 per student This cost breakdown includes lodging at a major chain hotel location within walking distance from Times Square and Broadway shows. Within this price, students will be in quad (potentially quint) rooms, and may include overnight bus transportation. For previous trips, our Fine Arts Boosters have worked to provide our students with fundraising opportunities, including the Double Good Popcorn fundraiser and the World’s Finest Chocolate fundraiser. The music teachers and boosters collectively are actively seeking additional fundraising opportunities that are easily adaptable and high profit that we can roll out to students. It is completely possible to pay for the entire cost of the trip through fundraising. (A number of students financed their entire New Orleans and New York trip costs through school fundraisers.) All fundraising activities will adhere to district fundraising guidelines and approvals processes. It is the intention of the directors to begin planning the next trip just as one occurs. This gives students and families as much time as possible to fundraise and save money for the trip, and hopefully allows more students to participate in the trip. Recommendation Administration recommends that the Board of Education review the proposed 2027 RLHS Band/Choir trip to New York City at their September 29, 2025 Regular Meeting. The Board will be asked to approve the proposal at their October 6, 2025 Regular Meeting.
