Dr. Barber read a statement: Before we move on to the next agenda item, I want to take a moment to address an issue related to the District. As many our families and others in the community are aware, I have been involved in the Santa Rosa community for 29 years, including 29 years as a faithful servant to the School District. My career has been dedicated to working with our wonderful students and employees. I am so blessed to have seen so many students walk our halls and go on to be successful in their lives. I have also been blessed to see many of our employees grow and become leaders. We have over 4,500 amazing employees in this District. Unfortunately, over the past few months, we have had a few individuals fail to live up to the standards of our District, and it pains me to see it happen, because it is not a reflection of what I have been a part of here for more than 29 years. To be clear, our District has a thorough background screening process that is compliant with Florida law. This process includes automatically red flagging any applicant for employment whose background screening may include a disqualifying offense. For employees, we provide mandatory training on professional ethics. When we learn information that suggests a violation of Board policies or District expectations, we take action. This includes reporting information we receive from the Florida Department of Children and

Families, the Florida Department of Education, and, if necessary, law enforcement. Recent events involving a few individuals is not reflective of the dedication and ethics of our more than 4,500 employees. Your expectation, my expectation, and the expectation of every employee in this District is that our employees will follow our Board policies and make student safety a priority. As we have repeatedly emphasized, the safety and security of our students, employees, and visitors is of paramount importance, and it will continue to be. E. Recognitions/ Resolutions/ Proclamations Dr. Barber recognized Susan McCole, Assistant Superintendent for Finance, on her retirement. Tom Turman of Finance spoke on Susan's tenure with the district.
