[SUPERINTENDENT’S REPORT]

IT'S BUSY, EXCITING. IT'S ALL HAPPENING. OUR SCHOOLS ARE BUSTED, BUSTING WITH TEACHING AND LEARNING BACK TO SCHOOL NIGHTS, ATHLETIC EVENTS, VISUAL AND PERFORMING ARTS SHOWS, SCHOOLS AND PTA SPONSORED ACTIVITIES. UM AND THERE'S SO MANY OTHER WAYS THAT STUDENTS AND FAMILIES ARE GETTING CONNECTED WITH OUR SCHOOLS. OUR SCHOOL DISTRICT COMMUNITY HAS ALSO BEEN BUSY WITH THEIR OWN EVENTS SUCH AS A CITY OF PLACENTAS HERITAGE DAY FESTIVAL AND PARADE, OUR VERY OWN WOMEN AND INDUSTRY EVENT AND LARGE RIVALRY, ATHLETIC COMPETITIONS AND SO MUCH MORE THOROUGHLY ENJOYED THE HERITAGE DAY PARADE . MY FIRST ONE CONGRATULATIONS

[00:10:01]

I'VE GOT THE CHANCE TO CONVERSE WITH OUR TEACHERS ARE GROUNDSKEEPERS ARE COUNCILOR SPECIAL ED STAFF. BUS DRIVERS, NUTRITION SERVICE WORKERS AND SO MANY MORE AND WITHOUT FAIL WHENEVER I LEAVE ONE OF THE SCHOOLS GO AWAY, JUST INSPIRED BY THE HIGH QUALITY OF TEACHING AND LEARNING. I LOVE THE SMILES AT SEA AMONGST THE STAFF AND THE STUDENTS, AND THERE'S A WELCOME ENVIRONMENT IN EACH OF OUR SCHOOLS. THAT JUST MAKES ME BELIEVE WE'RE DOING THE RIGHT THINGS IN OUR SCHOOL, SO I'M GRATEFUL AND VERY FEEL VERY LUCKY TO BE DOING THAT PART OF MY JOB. UM CHANGING TOPICS. WE HEARD SOME PUBLIC COMMENTARY LAST MEETING THAT WERE EXPRESSING CONCERN ABOUT THE HIGH AMOUNTS OF DONATIONS BEING REQUESTED BY SOME OF THE BOOSTER CLUBS AT SOME OF OUR SCHOOLS. I DO BELIEVE THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WE SHOULD LOOK INTO. WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT ALL OF OUR DONATION REQUESTS ARE REASONABLE AND THEN ALL STUDENTS CAN PARTICIPATE, WHETHER THEY DONATE OR NOT. AND SO I'VE BEGUN COLLECTING INFORMATION ON THIS TOPIC. ALEX FORD, LEARNING MORE ABOUT OUR PRACTICES FROM A VARIETY OF STAFF AND LEADERS NOW WILL KEEP THE BOARD POSTED ON THAT. I'VE ALSO HEARD QUESTIONS IN OUR PUBLIC COMMENTS ABOUT SCOREBOARDS AND AIR CONDITIONING IN OUR GYMS, AND I APPRECIATE THOSE COMING FORTH TO US. OUR MAINTENANCE FACILITIES STAFF HAS COMPLETED INVESTIGATION. WE HAVE FIGURED OUT WHAT THE WE CANNOT FIX THE SCOREBOARD AND SO IT'S OBSOLETE AND THEY REPLACE REPLACEMENT PARTS AREN'T AVAILABLE, SO WORKING WITH THE SCHOOL TO PURCHASE INSTALLING NEW SCOREBOARD IN THE COMING MONTHS. IT WILL TAKE SOME LEAD TIME AS THESE ARE CUSTOM MADE FOR THE SCHOOL AND THEIR LEAD TIMES AT LEAST SEVERAL WEEKS AWAY, AND THAT COULD BE SOME SEVERAL WEEKS. THAT'S ALL BROAD DEFINITION SO BUT IN THE INTERIM STUDENTS USING THEIR PRACTICE TRIM JIMMY FLIMSY HIGH WILL CONTINUE USING TABLES, COP TABLETOP SCORING BOARD SCOREBOARD AVAILABLE TO THEM.

ALSO WE'VE HEARD ABOUT THE AIR CONDITIONING IN THE MAIN GYM AT ELDORADO HIGH SCHOOL. THAT JIM WAS ONE OF THREE GYMS. I SEE LUCY NODDING HER HEAD THAT JIM WAS ONE OF THREE GYMS ARE HIGH SCHOOLS THAT DO NOT HAVE ERKAN DISH INNING AGAIN. OUR STAFF WAS INVESTIGATING THAT WE DID NOT HAVE THE BUDGET CURRENTLY TO INSTALL AIR CONDITIONING IN ANY OF THOSE GEMS, BUT WE'RE LOOKING AT INSTALLING LARGE CEILING FAN MOUNTED CEILING MOUNTED FANS IN THAT, JIN. THIS IS WHAT WE HAVE IN THE TWO OTHER NON RECONDITIONED GEMS AND WHAT THEY WILL HELP. IT'S NOT THE SAME AS NEAR CONDITIONING SYSTEM, BUT IT WILL HELP OUT THERE. SO OUR MAINTENANCE FACILITY STAFF IS LOOKING INTO THAT. I ALSO WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE VERY DIFFICULT TOPIC OF FENTANYL. THAT'S OUT THERE. WE SHARED A MEETING. UH EMAIL WITH THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY YESTERDAY. THANKS TO MR MICHAEL LINDON. FOR THAT OUR NATION'S FACING A AN ALARMING DRUG ACADEMIC HAS TAKEN THE LIVES OF MANY OF OUR YOUNG PEOPLE HERE IN ORANGE COUNTY AND SURROUNDING AREAS. THERE WAS A HEADLINE TODAY ABOUT A STUDENT IN A IN A IN ORANGE COUNTY THAT THE MOTHER REPORTED SHE MAY HAVE DIED FROM FENTANYL. SO MR MACKLIN WILL SHARE MORE ABOUT THIS TOPIC AS PART OF HIS PRESENTATION ON SAFETY THIS EVENING, INCLUDING INFORMATION ABOUT, UM AH NALOXONE, THEIR LIFESAVING MEDICATION THAT CAN REVERSE THE EFFECTS OF THE EFFECTS OF AN OVERDOSE FROM FENTANYL AND OTHER OPIOIDS OPIOID AND IT WILL BE ON HAND AND ALL OF OUR SCHOOL SITES. WE'VE ALREADY BEGUN THAT PROCESS TO BRING THAT TO ALL OF OUR SCHOOL SITES, INCLUDING, SADLY, OUR ELEMENTARY SCHOOL SITES BECAUSE STUDENTS AS YOUNG AS 10 HAVE BEEN IMPACTED BY THIS SO I LOOK FORWARD. THANK YOU FOR YOUR WORK ON THIS, SIR. AND WE LOOK FORWARD YOUR PRESENTATION. ON A BRIGHTER NOTE. I WAS HAPPY TO SEE THE ORANGE COUNTY REGISTER ARTICLE ON ADVANCED PLACEMENT IN IBS SCORES HERE IN P Y EL USD ADVANCED PLACEMENT AND INTERNATIONAL BACCALAUREATE AS I BE FROM LAST YEAR ARE AP

EACH YEAR, WE BRING OUR NEW LEADERS TOGETHER TO ENJOY A MEAL, MEET MEMBERS OF CABINET SHARE ABOUT THEMSELVES AND LEARN MORE ABOUT OUR ORGANIZATION, AND WE ASKED EACH OF OUR NEW LEADERS TO TALK ABOUT WHAT THEY'VE LEARNED ABOUT P Y ALL USD SO FAR, REALLY, I WAS STRUCK BY THIS PART OF THE MEETING. I JUST WANTED TO SHARE SOME OF THE THINGS THAT WE HEARD TO DESCRIBE OUR ORGANIZATION. PEOPLE FELT SUPPORTED BY THEIR COLLEAGUES IN OUR ORGANIZATION. THEY USE THE WORDS LOVE CARE AND KINDNESS. THEY REAFFIRMED THAT WE ARE WE LIVE BY OUR P Y EL USD CORE VALUES WE PUT OUR STUDENTS FIRST. THEY VALUE THE RELATIONSHIP THEY'VE ALREADY DEVELOPED. AND THEY KNOW HOW IMPORTANT RELATIONSHIP PARTNERSHIPS ARE IN OUR CULTURE. THEY FELT SEEN AND VALUED. THAT'S ONE OF OUR BIG PUSHES FOR OUR STUDENTS TO MAKE THEM FEEL SEEN AND VALUED. IT WAS NICE TO KNOW OUR NEW LEADERS FELT THE SAME WAY THEY FELT A HIGH SENSE OF INTEGRITY AND A STRONG SENSE OF FAMILY ALREADY HERE, SO THAT MADE ME IT'S WHAT I KEEP SEEING IN OUR DISTRICT AND THAT WAS REAFFIRMED BY THAT MEETING THERE, AND THAT CONCLUDES MY REPORT FOR THE EVENING.

UM AND I AGREE THAT THE MESSAGES THAT WERE SHARED OUT THAT MORNING AFTER MIDDAY, UM REALLY DID REINFORCE WHAT WE HOPE THEY'RE GOING TO FIND WHEN THEY COME HERE. UM IT'S ALSO BEEN MENTIONED ABOUT THE WOMEN IN INDUSTRY THAT WAS A GREAT OPPORTUNITY. UM TO SEE NOT ONLY THE PANELISTS, OF WHICH THREE OF THEM ARE GRADUATES OF OUR DISTRICT TWO IN ENGINEERING ONE, UM, WHO YOU MIGHT RECOGNIZE THE NAME MICHELLE GRANGER, WHO HAS QUITE A STELLAR HISTORY AND WOMEN'S SOFTBALL.

PLUS WE HAD 10 STUDENTS FROM OUR DIFFERENT HIGH SCHOOLS, FEMALE STUDENTS WHO WERE ABLE TO BE MODERATORS, BUT THE QUESTIONS FORWARD TO THE PANEL AND SO FORTH. SO ALL IN ALL IT WAS AS IT ALWAYS HAS BEEN. IT'S A REALLY POSITIVE MOTIVATING EVENT, AND I'M SO GLAD IT CONTINUES. THE PARADE WAS MENTIONED YES, 39 BANDS AND TO BE HONEST. AFTER WE ENDED OUR OPPORTUNITY TO BE IN THE PARADE. I GO BACK AND STAND THERE AND WATCH MORE OF THE PARADE. AND THEN THERE WAS THIS LONG, LONG, LONG, LONG, LONG, LONG GAP AND I REALLY THOUGHT IT WAS OVER. SO I LIKE MANY I WENT DOWN TO ALL THE DIFFERENT BOOTHS AND SO FORTH. THEN WHEN IT CAME BACK OUT, THE PARADE WAS STILL GOING. THERE WERE HARDLY ANY PEOPLE ON THE SIDEWALK AND THESE WONDERFUL STUDENT BANDS WERE COMING DOWN. UM THE STREETS. UM THERE WERE SO MANY BANDS, SO IT WAS. IT WAS JUST WONDERFUL, THOUGH, BUT I FELT SO BADLY FOR THOSE WHO, BECAUSE OF THAT LONG GAP PROBABLY LOST SO MUCH OF THE AUDIENCE. SO IT WAS A GREAT DAY, THOUGH. UM AND THE OTHER THING I GOT TO DO BECAUSE MY OTHER HAT IS ROP. I WAS OVER AT KENNEDY HIGH SCHOOL, WHICH IS PART OF ANAHEIM UNION HIGH SCHOOL DISTRICT OVER IN LA PALMA, BECAUSE THAT'S WHERE WE HAD OUR RECENT GRADUATION FOR THE VOCATIONAL NURSE PROGRAM. AND THAT'S A REALLY RIGOROUS PROGRAM. AND, UM YOU CAN REALLY WHEN YOU GO TO THOSE YOU FEEL THE JOY IN THE ROOM BECAUSE THERE'S SUCH A SENSE OF ACCOMPLISHMENT BECAUSE THEY HAVE NOT ONLY MONTHS AND MONTHS AND MONTHS AND MONTHS AND MONTHS AND MONTHS OF WORK, UM, BUT THEY ALSO HAVE THE CLINICAL HOURS AND

80 SENIORS, WHICH WAS A NEW HIGH, WHICH DR MATTHEWS WAS MENTIONING THAT PASSED THE EXAM OF THE I B EXAM. SO THAT WAS AWESOME. CONGRATULATIONS TO THOSE STUDENTS. UM AND, UH. IT WAS TRULY INCREDIBLE. THE AMOUNT OF SUBJECTS IN WHICH THESE KIDS WERE BEING TESTED ON EVERYTHING . UM, YOU KNOW, FROM CALCULUS TO ADVANCED ENGLISH LITERATURE, SO VERY IMPRESSIVE, YOU KNOW, AND I WANT TO CONTINUE TO PUSH THESE TYPES OF PROGRAMS. FOR THESE KIDS. SO EVEN THOUGH THERE WAS 4100 ARE YOU KNOW 41 12? STUDENTS THAT APPLIED FOR IT. I THINK WE CAN WE CAN DO BETTER.

WE CAN MAKE IT MORE. WE COULD GIVE THESE KIDS MORE OPPORTUNITIES TO GET THESE, UM, GET THESE COLLEGE CREDITS IN THEIR POCKETS. SO UM. ALSO I GOT THE GOT THE OPPORTUNITY TO SIT IN ON A ZOOM MEETING. THIS WAS THROUGH KELL STATE UNIVERSITY, AND IT WAS A CENTER FOR CLOSE TO CLOSE THE OPPORTUNITY GAP. SO THIS WAS BASICALLY THE, UM. THE DOCTOR THAT WAS WAS PUTTING ON THIS PROGRAM, DR. MIGUEL ZAVALA , UM, WAS TALKING ABOUT ETHNIC STUDIES AND HOW IT FIT INTO THE SOCIAL ENVIRONMENT. UM TRULY, I WAS A LITTLE DISAPPOINTED, UM, DISAPPOINTED IN THE FACT THAT THERE WAS PROBABLY 100 EDUCATORS THROUGHOUT THE STATE THAT HAD HAD JOINED THIS AND, UM. IT SEEMED LIKE THE FOCUS WAS A LOT ON POLITICAL UM. I HAD POLITICAL LANGUAGE. A LOT OF THAT. UM MATTER OF FACT, THE. ONE OF THE LADIES THAT WAS THERE. A BETTY? UH, BETTINA LOVE. SHE SHE WAS QUOTED SAYING. THIS IS TO CREATE NEW SYSTEMS FOR EDUCATION. POLITICAL ECONOMIC AND COMMUNITY FREEDOM. SO I WASN'T REALLY SURE ABOUT THAT. SO I WAS REALLY HAPPY THAT I LISTENED TO THE WHOLE PROGRAM. AND, UM THE KIND OF KEPT BEATING THE DRUM THAT THERE IS A CIRCULAR DIMENSION AND THIS DIMENSION INCLUDED SOCIAL JUSTICE TEACHING. ANTI RACIST AND INTERSECTIONAL TEACHING. ETHNIC STUDIES, CONTENT AND EVENTUALLY, SOCIAL ACTION, WHICH INCLUDES CIVIL CIVIL ENGAGEMENT. SO IN MY QUESTION, BECAUSE WE HAVE BREAKOUT SESSIONS AND SO FORTH, SO IT WASN'T JUST ME. ME RANTING. UM I ALSO IS THE PURPOSE OF THESE ETHNIC STUDIES NOW GRANTED. PLACENTIA YORBA LINDA HAS DONE THEIR OWN DUE DILIGENCE AND PUT TOGETHER A VERY, VERY GOOD PROGRAM. THIS WAS BASED OFF OF THE STATE PROGRAM IN WHICH CAL STATE IN MOST OF THE OTHER COLLEGE COLLEGES, THAT ARE, UH, A PART OF OUR USING SO I BASICALLY MY QUESTION WAS DOES THIS. UM LOOK TO TRY AND GET KIDS TO BECOME ACTIVISTS. AND AT THAT POINT, THEY KICKED ME OFF. SO I DIDN'T GET AN ANSWER TO MY QUESTION. BUT I DO KNOW THAT THAT WAS PROBABLY A LITTLE BIT OF A LITTLE BIT OF A STING FOR THEM. I DID RECEIVE ALL OF THE, UM THE POWER POINTS IN WHICH DOCTOR ZAVALA WAS PUTTING OUT THERE. SO IF THERE IS ANY PARENTS THAT WOULD LIKE TO SEE THIS SORT OF THING, I WILL BE HAPPY TO FORWARD THAT TO YOU. I CAN TELL YOU PARENTS. GET INVOLVED. LOOK AT WHAT YOUR KIDS ARE RECEIVING. UM. WE CAN ALL CATCH IT ALL THE TIME. BUT YOU'RE THE CLOSEST TO YOUR KIDS, AND YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO SEE THIS STUFF. AND LET US KNOW IF THESE THINGS WERE HAPPENING. OKAY UM THEN, FROM OUR PART ARE POINT, THEN WE CAN TAKE IT TO AN ADMINISTRATOR, A PRINCIPLE FOR THE TEACHERS THEMSELVES. OKAY, BECAUSE WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THIS IS ALL ABOUT LEARNING. THERE WAS NOTHING IN THIS PARTICULAR WEBCAST THIS WEB WEBINAR THAT WAS ABOUT MATH. SCIENCE. READING. WHICH I'M PRETTY SURE IN THE STATE. WE'RE NOT DOING TOO GREAT 60% AND SOME OF THOSE CASES I DON'T KNOW. I WAS NEVER

[00:35:03]

YOU KNOW THERE TO ANSWER LIKE THE LEGAL QUESTIONS WHEN YOU ASKED ABOUT LIABILITY AND WHAT GOES ON IN THE CLINIC? UM THINGS LIKE THAT, AND I ALSO WAS QUESTIONING ABOUT THE OTHER TWO HEALTH CLINICS THAT THEY'RE LOOKING TO PUT IN, UH, WITH ST JUDE AND THEN ALSO WITH THE CITY OF PLACENTA. AND SO I DID MAKE A PHONE CALL OVER TO ONE OF THE PLACENTA CITY COUNCILS, AND WE'RE JUST KIND OF TALKING ABOUT THIS. AND I DID ASK IF THERE WAS A REASON THAT WE'RE PUTTING IT ONTO SCHOOL GROUNDS. AND IF THERE WAS OTHER LOCATIONS IN PLACENTA THAT MIGHT BE FEASIBLE AND MORE ACCESSIBLE TO THE COMMUNITY. UM SO THAT WAS KIND OF ONE OF THE THINGS WE KIND OF KICKED AROUND IN THAT CONVERSATION, BUT THE CLINIC WAS WAS GREAT. IT'S A GREAT RESOURCE , AND IT WAS A GREAT VISIT. SO I WAS REALLY HAPPY THAT I HEADED OVER THERE, SO I'M SURE YOU WILL ENJOY IT. UM ANOTHER THING I HAPPENED, ACTUALLY, DURING MY BUNCO NIGHT, A TEACHER IN OUR DISTRICT CALLED ME AND SHE SAID, WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO TAKE AWAY OUR PAY AND RETIREMENT BENEFITS? WHY WOULD WE HAVE TO STRIKE FOR WAGES? WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO BAN BOOKS? AND SO THE BEEN SAYING IT FOR LAST TO BOARD MEETINGS. I'M GOING TO SAY IT AGAIN. I WILL NOT TRY TO TAKE AWAY PAY. I WILL NOT TRY TO TAKE AWAY RETIREMENT. I WILL NOT TRY TO TAKE AWAY BENEFITS. YOU WON'T HAVE TO STRIKE FOR WAGES. AND I'LL JUST HAVE TO KEEP REPEATING THIS MESSAGE OVER AND OVER AGAIN UNTIL IT'S I GUESS HEARD AMONGST EVERYONE BECAUSE THERE'S CERTAIN AH GROUPS THAT ARE. SENDING THIS MESSAGE OUT, AND ONCE AGAIN, I'M JUST GOING TO SAY. AS I SAID, LAST TIME I SUPPORT TEACHERS. I SUPPORT OUR STAFF. I SUPPORT EVERYBODY IN THE DISTRICT. I MAY NOT SUPPORT SOME OF THE IDEAS THAT ARE COMING IN FROM THE TEACHERS UNION IN SACRAMENTO, BUT I SUPPORT OUR TEACHERS SUPPORT STAFF. SINCE I'VE BEEN ON THE BOARD WE'VE HAD TO PAY RAISES FOR STAFF. AND SO WHAT'S BEING SAID IN THE SCHOOLS WAS BEING SAID THE COMMUNITY. WHAT'S BEING SAID IS COMPLETELY FALSE AND SO FARTED AGAIN. AND WHAT? WHERE WE OCTOBER, SITTING IN NOVEMBER, DECEMBER, I'LL SAY, I'LL SAY, YOU KNOW, UNTIL 2024 IF I NEED TO, BUT, UM SO, PLEASE . AND THANK YOU FOR THESE PHONE CALLS, AND I THANK YOU THAT PEOPLE ARE ACTUALLY ASKING QUESTIONS BECAUSE THEY SAY SOME OF IT JUST SOUNDS ACTUALLY PREPOSTEROUS. UM ANOTHER. IN FACT, THIS JUST CAME UP. I WAS SITTING WITH A PARENT WHO HAS KIDS INTO DISTRICTS AND THEY HAVE A PARENT APP AND I

[00:40:02]

WHAT'S THE PROBLEM? SO WHAT WE'RE SEEING WAS THE ESPERANZA YORBA LINDA JV FOOTBALL GAME THE OTHER DAY, AND I'M GOING TO TRY REALLY HARD BECAUSE I WAS THERE TO SEE IT.

UM AS YOU CAN SEE ON THE PICTURE ON THE RIGHT. THIS IS THE YORBA LINDA JV TEAM AND ESPERANZA JV TEAM. WE HAVE A SPECIAL EDUCATION STUDENT WHO HAS BEEN PLAYING FOOTBALL THERE SINCE HIS FRESHMAN YEAR. AND THIS YEAR HE HAS BEEN INVOLVED IN THE PLACE HE HAS BEEN INVOLVED IN THE VARSITY. UM AS YOU SEE ON THE LEFT NUMBER 50 THE CAPTAIN FOR THE FOR THE YOUR BILL IN HIGH SCHOOL GAME THAT NIGHT, IT WAS THIS STUDENT AND I JUST WANT TO GIVE A HUGE SHOUT OUT. I KNOW WE HAVE A LOT OF AMAZING TEACHERS AND COACHES AND INCLUSION HAS BEEN A BIG PART OF THEM. BUT FOR SOMETHING LIKE THIS. THIS IS JUST SUCH AN AMAZING EXAMPLE OF INCLUSION AND WHAT OUR SPECIAL ED DEPARTMENT IS ALL ABOUT, AND THAT'S WHAT WE ARE. UM SPEAKING , YOU KNOW, AND TRYING TO BETTER OURSELVES FOR AND, UM. I GOT A PHONE CALL FROM HIS THIS STUDENT'S MOM. AND THIS ONE LIKE REALLY HIT HOME. HE WAS THE STUDENT WASN'T FEELING GREAT ONE MORNING. YEAH, IT WAS KIND OF JUST DECIDING SHOULD I GO WITH, YOU KNOW SHOULD I GO TO SCHOOL OR NOT? AND THEY'RE KIND OF DEBATING AND MAYBE YOU SHOULD STAY HOME. AND HE SAYS NO. HE SAYS, MOM, HE SAYS, I'M GOING TO GO TO SCHOOL AND MY TEAMMATES ARE GOING TO TAKE CARE OF ME. AND SO JUST KNOWING THAT THIS STUDENT HAS HAD THIS OPPORTUNITY , AND I WILL SAY THE HEAD COACH OF ESPERANZA'S JP PRESLEY, AND HE IS A SPECIAL EDUCATION TEACHER. AND SO HE UNDERSTANDS THIS AND I JUST REALLY THANK HIM. FOR GIVING THIS KID SUCH AN EXPERIENCE AND FOR TAKING, UM FOR BELIEVING IN HIM AND HAVING THE STUDENT BELIEVE IN HIMSELF. UM IT'S JUST BEEN AN AMAZING THING TO SEE. AND SO YOU KNOW, AND I WAS THERE TO WITNESS IT, AND THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF, YOU KNOW, WATCHING THIS THIS CERTAIN STUDENT BECAUSE MY KIDS HAVE ATTENDED SCHOOL WITH HIM, YOU KNOW, FOR A WHILE NOW, AND SO, UM JUST JUST TO SEE THIS PROGRESSION HAS JUST BEEN AMAZING, AND I MEAN THERE'S BEEN A COUPLE INSTANCES WHERE HE HAS BEEN INVOLVED IN CERTAIN SPORTS AND YOU'RE LOOKING AT EVERYONE'S LOOKING AT THE AUDIENCE UNTIL WE'RE GOING. YOU'RE NOT CRYING YET. YOU KNOW, I'M NOT CRYING OR NOT CRYING THAT YOU WERE JUST CRYING BECAUSE IT'S JUST SUCH A THING TO SEE. AND SO I JUST WANTED TO BRING THIS UP TONIGHT BECAUSE I JUST THINK THAT UM, WE SHOULD EVERY YOU KNOW, EVERY STUDENT EVERY DAY IS KIND OF SOMETHING THAT I HAVE BEEN SAYING SINCE 2020 AND THIS IS JUST SUCH A GREAT REPRESENTATION OF INCLUSION AND BELIEVING IN ONESELF AND WHEREVER WHEREVER THE STUDENT GOES IN HIS LIFE, YOU KNOW HE'S GOING TO HAVE THESE MEMORIES, BUT NOT ONLY THAT IS THESE TEAMS LIKE YOUR BILL IN HIGH SCHOOL. THEIR BENCH CLEARED AND RAN DOWN THE FIELD WITH HIM. ESPERANZA'S BENCH CLEARED AND THEY RAN DOWN, AND THEN NOW, HE SAYS, I'LL GO TO SCHOOL. I'M GOING TO GO TO SCHOOL TODAY, EVEN THOUGH I'M NOT FEELING GREAT, BECAUSE MY TEAMMATES ARE GOING TO TAKE CARE OF ME. AND SO THAT'S JUST A SPECIAL THING. AND I'M JUST SO APPRECIATIVE. AND I'M GLAD I DIDN'T KIND OF GET TEARY EYED TONIGHT BECAUSE I WAS YOU KNOW, WHEN I WAS WRITING MY THING HERE AND SENDING THE VIDEO IS A LITTLE TEARY EYED. UM AND SO

[00:45:05]

AND SO ONCE AGAIN, I JUST WANT TO THANK UM I JUST WANT TO THANK THE ESPERANZA HEAD COACH AND THE ENTIRE TEAM AND ALL OF THE TEACHERS AND THE COACHES AND THE STAFF WHO ARE MAKING A DIFFERENCE AND ARE DOING THINGS LIKE THIS. AND WE MADE ALL SEE IT, BUT WE RECOGNIZE IT AND YOU'RE VERY MUCH APPRECIATED. AND THEN FINALLY, UM ANOTHER THING THAT I THINK WE SHOULD ALSO THINK ABOUT, TOO IS MAYBE HAVING SOME TERM LIMITS ON OUR BOARD. I KNOW OUR CITY COUNCIL DOES THREE TERMS AND THEY HAVE, YOU KNOW, 12 YEARS, MAX, AND I KNOW THAT THAT'S BEEN SOMETHING THAT'S BEEN ASKED ABOUT, AND SO I THINK MAYBE WE SHOULD IN THE NEXT FEW MONTHS. START THINKING ABOUT YOU KNOW IS IT IS IT IN THE BEST INTEREST OF OUR COMMUNITY AND OUR BOARD AND OUR SCHOOLS TO HAVE SOME TERM LIMITS, AND THAT IS THE END OF MY BOARD REPORT. MHM GOOD EVENING, EVERYBODY. IT'S UM REALLY FUN TO SEE THIS EDUCATION WORLD IN FULL SWING, AND IT HAS BEEN VERY BUSY MONTHS SINCE OUR LAST MEETING, AND I'M JUST GOING TO TOUCH ON A LOT OF THINGS THAT I DID HAVE BEEN WORKING ON, UM I HAVE LISTENED TO A PODCAST. UM ON READING. I'VE BEEN READING LOTS OF ARTICLES ON READING AND THE SCIENCE OF READING AND I'VE JUST REALLY BEEN ENJOYING THESE AND TRYING TO UNDERSTAND YOU KNOW, THE SCIENCE BEHIND READING AND MORE, AND SO I LOOK FORWARD TO KEEP DIVING DEEP. AND ACTUALLY, TODAY, I READ A NICE ARTICLE THAT SAID, WE ARE ACTUALLY DOING THAT. THEY LISTED, UM PEOPLE, SOME OF THE MATERIALS THAT ARE BASED ON THE SCIENCE OF READING. AND OF COURSE, OUR BOOKS ARE SO I WAS LIKE, YEAH. WHEN UM, I ATTENDED THE CSB A, UM UM. SEMINAR ON THE BELL FROST AND, UM WE DISCUSSED A LOT OF. DIFFERENT TOPICS, BUT I THINK SOME OF THE INTERESTING ONE WAS LITERACY COACHES, OF COURSE, BECAUSE I'VE BEEN FOCUSED ON READING READING SPECIALISTS, YOU KNOW, COLLEGE AND CAREER PATHWAYS AND BILLS THAT HAVE JUST BEEN SIGNED AND HOW THEY'RE GOING TO IMPACT OUR SCHOOLS. AND ALSO, UM SOME OF THE CHALLENGES THAT WE MIGHT BE SEEING NEXT YEAR BECAUSE ALREADY THE REVENUES THE TAX REVENUES ARE ALREADY DOWN. UM. IT WAS MENTIONED THE NEW MANAGERS LUNCHEON AND I CONCUR WHAT WAS

[00:50:02]

UM I GOT A FRIEND FOR LIFE NOW, AND I LOVED IT. UM I WENT TO ROSE DRIVE, AND MY FIRST IMPRESSION OF ROSE DRIVE WAS JUST REALLY THEIR FOCUS ON KINDNESS. I CAME ON KINDNESS DAY. SO ALL THE TEACHERS WERE WEARING KINDNESS SHIRT, WHICH I WOULD HAVE GOT THE MEMO BECAUSE I HAVE ONE AND I COULD HAVE FIT IN REALLY WELL, BUT NOT ONLY JUST WITH THE SHIRT IS THEY HAD A BIG THANK YOU NOTES ON THEIR DOORS. AND ON THEIR WALLS TO THE CUSTODIANS, THANKING THEM FOR KEEPING THEIR SCHOOL. UM CLEAN. AND SO NOT ONLY DO THEY TALK ABOUT IT, BUT THEY REALLY DO IT.

AND I LOVE THAT, UM THEY HAVE A KIND OF A CULTURE OF SCHOLAR. YOU KNOW, THEY'RE NOT STUDENTS

[00:55:04]

SO I'LL SHARE THAT ALONG. UM THAT YOU MENTIONED THE CSB LEGISLATIVE SEMINAR, WHICH WAS REALLY GREAT. IT WAS NICE TO SEE A BUNCH OF LEGISLATIVE ITEMS THAT WE HAVE BEEN ADVOCATING FOR THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS THROUGH CSB A AND TO SEE SOME OF THOSE ACTUALLY GET SIGNED INTO LAW AND ADAPTED AND CHANGED BASED ON HOW WE WANTED TO HAVE THAT IMPACT SCHOOLS, UM, HERE IN OUR LOCAL COMMUNITY. UM WENT TO BACK TO SCHOOL NIGHT AT YOUR BELINDA HIGH SCHOOL, WHICH WAS GREAT. I THINK WE'VE HAD SO MANY OF THOSE AT THE BEGINNING OF THE SCHOOL YEAR AND THEY KIND OF TRICKLED OFF SINCE OUR LAST MEETING, BUT THAT ONE WAS AFTER OUR MEETING.

UM THAT I'M SO GLAD THAT WE DO HAVE A CROSSWALK THERE THAT'S AVAILABLE FOR STUDENTS THAT IT WAS A DANGEROUS SORT OF AREA AND THAT'S REALLY NICE THAT WE HAVE THAT AND A CROSSING GUARD COMING.

THEY WERE WORKING ON BATH BOMBS WHEN I WAS IN THERE AND THEY HAD TAKEN THEY WERE MAKING THEM SO THEY HAD ALL THE DIFFERENT INGREDIENTS. UM ALL SEPARATED OUT, AND THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT EACH ONE OF THOSE AND LOOKING AT HOW EACH ONE OF THOSE CHANGES THE COMPOSITION OF THOSE BATH BOMBS, AND THEN THEY WERE MAKING THEM ALL TOGETHER AND THEN, UM, SO THAT THEY COULD THEN PUT THEM IN WATER AND WATCH HOW THEY DISSOLVE.

BY USING OUR DIFFERENCES AS A GATEWAY FOR UNITY RATHER THAN DIVISION. WE CAN LEARN TO NOT ONLY APPRECIATE , BUT EXCEPT WHAT MAKES EVERY MEMBER OF OUR COMMUNITY UNIQUE. BY TAKING A DEEP DIVE INTO EXPLORING DIFFERENT CULTURES. WE CAN CREATE A COMMUNITY WHERE EVERY VOICE IS HEARD BECAUSE WE EDUCATE OUR PEOPLE TO LISTEN. WITH FAIR AND EQUAL REPRESENTATION. WE CAN ENSURE

AND TO THE SUPPORT STAFF AT EACH SCHOOL WHO NURTURED HER WHEN SHE WAS SICK, HER NEEDED SOME TLC.

WE'RE SO FORTUNATE TO HAVE HAD TEACHERS THAT SAW HER FROM MORE THAN HER TEST SCORES. THANK YOU FOR HER SMILES. YOU GAVE HER THE MOMENTS YOU TOOK TO CONNECT WITH HER. AND THE LESSONS THAT YOU TAUGHT HER. HER PATH HAS NOT ALWAYS BEEN AN EASY ONE. BUT WE APPRECIATE YOU FOR VALUING OUR LITTLE GIRL ENOUGH TO GIVE TO NEVER GIVE UP ON HER. WHETHER YOU DIRECTLY INTERACTED WITH HER OR WERE PART OF THE DECISION MAKING BODY THAT FORGED HER PATH. THANK YOU. I BELIEVE THAT IT TAKES A VILLAGE TO RAISE A CHILD. IT'S A TEAM EFFORT, AND WE'RE FORTUNATE TO BE PART OF A DISTRICT THAT'S DEDICATED TO MAKING EACH CHILD FEEL NOTICED, NEEDED AND NURTURED. IT'S NO COINCIDENCE THAT AN OVERWHELMING NUMBER OF DISTRICT EMPLOYEES AND THEIR OWN CHILDREN TO OUR SCHOOLS THEY KNOW HOW SPECIAL THIS DISTRICT IS. THANK YOU FOR SHARING MY DAUGHTER'S SUCCESS.

YOU'RE AN IMPORTANT PART OF IT. AFTER SARAH WILL HAVE. JONATHAN BLOOM, QUIST, JUDY REEFS AND LINDA MANNION. GOOD EVENING ONE AND ALL. MY NAME IS SARAH PHILLIPS ON THE LIBRARIAN AT YOUR BELINDA HIGH SCHOOL. TONIGHT. I WANT TO TALK ABOUT READING. AND MARILYN I YOU WE SEEM TO BE ON THE SAME WAVELENGTH. UM SPECIFICALLY READING FOR PLEASURE AND PERSONAL GROWTH. UM. READING GENERALLY DROPS OFF FOR PERSONAL GROWTH OR PLEASURE IN MIDDLE SCHOOL AND HIGH SCHOOL FOR MANY REASONS, AND I WANT TO MENTION THAT OUR SCHOOL NEWSPAPER THE WRANGLER, HAD A GREAT ARTICLE TITLED READING FOR THE SAKE OF READING BY MAGDALENA APARICIO.

IT WAS PUBLISHED OCTOBER 9TH, WHICH TALKS ABOUT THE DROP OFF IN READING, AND THAT IT'S NOT TOO LATE TO FIND THAT LOVE AGAIN. HERE ARE THE BENEFITS TO OUR YOUTH FOR MAKING TIME TO READ FOR PLEASURE AND FREE CHOICE. UM INCREASED READING, ATTAINMENT AND WRITING ABILITY, INCREASED TEXT, COMPREHENSION AND GRAMMAR, BREADTH OF VOCABULARY, POSITIVE READING ATTITUDES, SELF CONFIDENCE AS A READER AND PLEASURE IN READING LATER IN LIFE, AND THERE ARE BENEFITS FOR ADULTS, TOO. READERS OF FICTION HAVE INCREASED CREATIVITY, EMPATHY AND EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE. LOSING YOURSELF IN A FICTIONAL CHARACTERS. EXPERIENCES CAN MAKE US MORE OPEN MINDED AND ALLOW US TO SPEND TIME AND SOMEONE ELSE'S SHOES. READING BOOST BRAIN POWER , CREATING COGNITIVE ENGAGEMENT AND CAN HELP WHEN THINGS LIKE MEMORY AND BRAIN FUNCTION LESSON AS WE GET OLDER. UM READING SUPPORT SELF IMPROVEMENT. WE OFTEN TELL CHILDREN READERS ARE LEADERS AND THERE'S DEFINITE TRUTH TO THAT. THE WILY CHESS LIBRARY IS ALL ABOUT SUPPORTING , LIFELONG LEARNING, AND ONE OF THE BEST WAYS TO DO THAT IS TO PICK UP A BOOK AND LEARN SOMETHING NEW. THANK YOU. I'M JONATHAN BLOOM QUIST. I AM A PARENT FOR A PILL USD HAD TO GET THE GOLDEN A QUESTION HERE. I FOUND SOMETHING OUT HERE. FROM THAT. I WANT TO GET SOME ANSWERS ON BACK IN 2011. THE SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS HAD VOTED WITHOUT PUBLIC NOTICE TO BORROW $22

[01:10:01]

[01:15:06]

ENSURING THAT EVERY STUDENT FEELS NOTICED, NEEDED AND NURTURED. AND I THINK THAT THE INDIVIDUAL STORIES THAT YOU HIGHLIGHTED ARE WONDERFUL, AND I THINK THE CALENDAR JUST ENHANCES THAT. IT DOESN'T TAKE ANYTHING AWAY. SO THANK YOU. HELLO MY NAME IS SARAH CABALLERO. UM AND I JUST WANT TO TALK TO YOU REALLY QUICK, AND ACTUALLY, I'M GOING TO, UM DIVERT MY ATTENTION TO MR DOC. DOCTOR, DOCTOR VALUES . I APOLOGIZE. AND I HAVE TO SAY THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR ACTUALLY LISTENING TO THE PARENTS AND COMING TO THE BOARD WITH SOME ADDITIONAL INFORMATION THAT YOU'VE RESEARCHED. SO I'M GOING TO BRING THIS ONE TO YOU BECAUSE I'M HOPING THAT YOU COULD MAYBE DO A LITTLE BIT OF RESEARCH ON THIS ONE FOR ME PERSONALLY. SO I HAVE SOME NIECES AND NEPHEWS THAT GO TO ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS. AND I KNOW THE GENTLEMAN TALKED ABOUT IT EARLIER WITH REGARDS TO TAKING UP PUBLIC SPOTS FOR PARENTS TO PICK, PICK UP AND DROP OFF WITH STUDENTS. IT'S CREATING A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE, AND WHAT WE'RE FINDING IS THAT THE SPOTS ARE BEING TAKEN BY CARS THAT ARE BEING LEFT THERE WITH CAMPAIGN SIGNS AND SO FORTH , AND UNFORTUNATELY IT'S CREATING A SAFETY ISSUE WITH THE CHILDREN AND PARENTS ARE HAVING TO PARK FURTHER AWAY. AND THEN WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE PARKING LOT FOR THE ACTUAL SCHOOL THERE'S NOBODY IN THE INSIDE SEAT IN THEIR ASSIGNED STALLS. UM SO I KNOW, FOR INSTANCE, MY NIECE AND MY NEPHEW WHO ARE GOING TO THE CURRENT ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, THIS WAS A PROBLEM. THERE WAS A COMPLAINT TO THE PRINCIPLE AND THE PRINCIPLE. I DON'T KNOW IF IT GOT HURT, BUT THE WONDERFUL THING I CAN SAY IS THE VERY NEXT DAY. ALL THE STALLS ARE BACK IN THE MARKET, WHICH IS GREAT. AND SO THE PUBLIC SPARKS WERE OPEN.

BUT I DO KNOW THAT THERE'S A COUPLE MORE ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS WHERE THIS IS A PROBLEM, SO IT WOULD BE PREFERABLE TO A PARENT TO HELP AND MAKE SURE THAT THERE'S SAFETY FOR THE CHILDREN.

THAT WE'RE NOT CLUTTERING UP THE OTHER STREETS WHERE WE REALLY NEED TO NOT BE. THANK YOU. WE HAVE PAM, THEN MARK THEN PATRICIA. IN 2021. I SPENT A GREAT DEAL OF TIME FIGHTING THE DISTRICT ABOUT LOWERING THE CRAZY HIGH FACILITY FEES. I WASN'T GOING TO MENTION THIS, BUT BECAUSE THE SUPERINTENDENT BROUGHT IT UP. I'LL MENTION THAT I DID A FOIA REQUEST IN 2021 BECAUSE I WAS TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHY THE POOL AT YOUR BELINDA HIGH SCHOOL WAS IN SUCH ABYSMAL SHAPE. I LEARNED THAT THE DISTRICT COLLECTED $225,000 IN FACILITY RENTAL FEES AT YOUR BELINDA HIGH SCHOOL FOR THE POOL. BUT THEY ACTUALLY SPENT $0 ON MAINTAINING THE POOL. THE

[01:20:06]

MY NAME IS MARK THEORY. I'VE SPOKEN. YOU'RE QUITE A FEW TIMES. AND IF YOU DON'T REMEMBER , I'VE LIVED HERE FOR 60 YEARS MY MOTHER TAUGHT KINDERGARTEN AT ROSE DRIVE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL FOR 25 YEARS. I'VE CHANGED THE DIRECTION OF MY TALK TONIGHT BECAUSE MY MOTHER WHO IS 94 YEARS OLD. IT'S JUST GONE INTO HOSPICE. AND MY LAST CONVERSATION WITH HER. SHE WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT I PASSED HER FEELINGS. ON TO THIS GROUP. SOME OF YOU ARE GOING TO WANT TO HEAR IT, ESPECIALLY SOME OF THE TEACHERS. BUT SHE HAD SOME VARIOUS NEW COMMENTS BACK IN MAY OF 2020. SHE WAS SO DISAPPOINTED THAT THE TEACHERS FELT LIKE THEY WERE NOT ESSENTIAL WORKERS. LIQUOR STORES WERE LOT OF OTHER BUSINESSES, BUT THE UNION HAD SUCH A GREAT INFLUENCE ON SHUTTING THE SCHOOLS DOWN, AND FOR THE RECORD, FLORIDA OPENED UP THEIR SCHOOLS IN AUGUST OF 2020. SO SHE ALSO ASKED ME. HOW DID THE UNIONS GET INVOLVED IN CURRICULUM? THEY USED TO BE THERE FOR MAKING SURE THAT TEACHERS HAD GREAT BENEFITS AND GREAT PAY. AND I THINK EVERYBODY UP HERE SUPPORTS THE TEACHERS AND NOBODY IS TRYING TO TAKE AWAY ANY PAY OR ANY BENEFITS. BUT WHERE WE DO HAVE DISAGREEMENT IS WHEN IT COMES TO CURRICULUM, AND WE WILL CONTINUE HAVE THOSE OPEN DISCUSSIONS. SHE HAD NO IDEA THAT HER UNION DUES ALL THOSE YEARS WE'RE GOING TO THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY. SHE ASKED ME IF THERE ARE ANY REPUBLICANS THAT ARE TEACHERS. AND I SAID, I'M NOT SURE, BUT THEY'RE AFRAID TO SPEAK OUT. SO LET'S BE CLEAR THE LAST BOARD MEETING THROUGH A LOT OF TEACHERS IN THIS BACK SNICKERING WHEN PEOPLE WERE TALKING ABOUT THINGS GOING ON IN THE SCHOOLS. AND SOME OF THEM ARE REALLY GOING ON. SO PLEASE BE AWARE THAT TEACHERS HAVE TO HOLD EACH OTHER ACCOUNTABLE. CRITICAL RACE THEORY HAS BEEN BANNED FROM THE SCHOOL. SO IF YOU SEE ANYBODY DOING IT, YOU HAVE AN OBLIGATION TO POINT IT OUT. SO UM. AND THEN ANOTHER THING IS OKAY. I'M SORRY. I'M OUT OF TIME. BUT JUST CONCLUDE YOUR COMMENTS. QUICK MATH CLASS . PLEASE CONCLUDE YOUR COMMENTS . YOU DON'T HAVE ANY MORE TIME LEFT. THANK YOU, MR FERRI. OKAY TODAY. GOOD EVENING. MY NAME IS PATRICIA HANZO. AND I KNOW TODAY WE'RE GOING TO HEAR A REPORT ON SAFETY FROM OUR ASSISTANT SUPERINTENDENT, MR MCALINDEN.

AND SO I'M GOING TO TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THAT AND HOW OUR COMMUNICATION AND THE WAY WE TREAT EACH OTHER. IF WE HAVE MUTUAL RESPECT, THEN WE WOULD ALL GROW TOGETHER AND GROW THIS DISTRICT. WHAT WE NEED IS FOR THE BOARD AND EMPLOYEES TO BE PRO STUDENT. PRO ETHNIC STUDIES.

PRO EDUCATOR. PRO PRINCIPLES WE DON'T NEED TO GET MORE REALITY CHECK ON PRINCIPLES. WE ASKED THAT DECISIONS BY THE DISTRICT AND BY THIS BOARD EMBRACE ALL STUDENTS AND TEACHERS. GIVE US STRONG CURRICULUM, HELPFUL TOOLS AND USEFUL CONTRACTORS. JUST GIVE TEACHERS AND LIBRARIANS THE

[01:25:04]

HI SO I DIDN'T REALLY KNOW WHAT TO SAY. SOMEONE ASKED ME TO SPEAK. WHAT I CAN SAY IS PEOPLE ARE RESPECTED IN THIS DISTRICT, BECAUSE IF YOU COME TO TRAVIS RANCH, AND DR MATTHEWS WAS THERE A WEEK AND A HALF AGO, TWO WEEKS AGO FOR JONATHAN, OUR KIDS LOVE THE COUNSELOR THAT WE BROUGHT ONTO CAMPUS THAT YOU GUYS SUPPLIED US WITH. IT IS THE SAFEST SPACE ON THAT CAMPUS, AND THOSE KIDS ARE THRIVING, WHICH WE COULD NOT HAVE SAID A YEAR AGO. SO THANK YOU FOR THAT.

THANK YOU FOR THIS WHOLE PRESENTATION ON FENTANYL BECAUSE YOU KNOW WHAT MY OLDEST JUST LOST ONE OF HIS BEST FRIENDS DO IT UP IN L A. AND IT HAS BEEN ALL OVER THE NEWS. EVERYONE IN THIS ROOM IS PROBABLY SEEN IT. SO AS WE'RE SITTING HERE ATTACKING, THERE ARE ONLY SO MANY PEOPLE IN THIS ROOM AND THIS DISTRICT THAT CAN DO SO MANY THINGS THAT ONCE AND YOU KNOW WHAT THEY DO? THEY HAVE SAID IT BEFORE. I DON'T HAVE TO AGREE WITH EVERY PERSON UP HERE, BUT THEY PRIORITIZE WHAT THEY FIND NECESSARY. IF YOU DON'T WANT TO SIT HERE AND TALK ABOUT INCLUSION, YOU HAVE TO ACCEPT THAT ONE DAY OR ANOTHER. IT'S GONNA HAPPEN. IT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN OVERNIGHT. IT'S NOT GONNA HAPPEN OVERNIGHT. IN THIS ROOM. IT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN OVERNIGHT IN THIS COUNTRY. BUT IF WE'RE ONLY JUST GONNA SIT HERE AND SAY YOU'RE WRONG, YOU'RE WRONG. IT'S NEVER GONNA HAPPEN. I'VE SAID THIS BEFORE. IF YOU GUYS WANT TO FIX THINGS FIND A WAY TO WORK TOGETHER. THEY'RE WORKING TO FIX PROBLEMS. IT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN OVERNIGHT. EVERYBODY WANTS THE BEST. PEOPLE HAVE DIFFERENT OPINIONS OF WHAT THE BEST IS, BUT THEY'RE WORKING FOR A BREAK. GREATER GOOD. THEY REALLY ARE. YOU DON'T HAVE TO LIKE EVERYBODY. YOU DON'T HAVE TO AGREE WITH EVERYBODY ON POLITICS. BUT WE ARE ALL STRIVING FOR THE BEST FUTURE FOR OUR CHILDREN. WHETHER YOU ARE A TEACHER IN THIS ROOM, SOMEONE SITTING IN THIS ROOM OR A PARENT EVERYBODY WANTS THE BEST. WE DON'T NEED TO SIT HERE AND ATTACK ALL NIGHT. WE REALLY DON'T. WE NEED TO THANK YOU FOR THE GOODS THAT THEY ARE DOING.

BECAUSE EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM HAS A PART IN THAT. THANK YOU. OKAY SO NOW THAT BRINGS US TO

[STAFF PRESENTATION]

WELL TONIGHT'S PRESENTATION WILL HIGHLIGHT A FEW OF OUR SAFETY RELATED INITIATIVES. IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT A MORE COMPREHENSIVE LIST OF INITIATIVES IS CURRENTLY AVAILABLE TO OUR SCHOOL COMMUNITY ON OUR DISTRICT WEBSITE AT P Y. O U. S D .ORG

[01:30:06]

CLASSES ARE OFFERED IN THE AREAS OF PARENTING. SAFETY ACADEMIC SUPPORT AND COLLEGE AND CAREER GUIDANCE. THEY ARE OFFERED THROUGHOUT THE YEAR AT NO COST TO OUR FAMILIES. ALL SECONDARY

[01:35:01]

FINALLY 24 FULL TIME REGISTERED BEHAVIORAL TECHNICIANS WERE HIRED TO SUPPORT OUR ELEMENTARY CLASSROOMS BY PROVIDING DIRECT SUPPORT TO OUR TEACHERS AND MANAGING BEHAVIORAL ISSUES ARE TEACHERS HAVE REPORTED THIS HAS BEEN AN INVALUABLE RESOURCE IN MANAGING DISRUPTIVE BEHAVIORS AND MAINTAINING AN EFFECTIVE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT. THE COMBINED IMPACT OF THESE INTERVENTIONS HAS HELPED REDUCE THE OVERALL SUSPENSION RATE ACROSS THE DISTRICT AS WELL AS THE NUMBER OF SUSPENSION DAYS. IN THE AREA OF MENTAL AND EMOTIONAL WELLNESS. THE DISTRICT HAS MADE SIGNIFICANT INVESTMENT TO ENSURE OUR STUDENTS AND FAMILIES HAVE ACCESS TO THE SUPPORT THEY NEED. WE HAVE PROVIDED SCHOOL COUNSELORS AT THE SECONDARY LEVEL FOR YEARS AND HAVE A LONG STANDING RELATIONSHIP WITH OUTREACH. CONCERN TO PROVIDE COUNSELING SUPPORTED OUR ELEMENTARY SCHOOL SITES. WHILE THESE SUPPORTS ARE ACCESSED BY STUDENTS DURING THE DAY, THERE ARE OCCASIONS WHERE FAMILIES ARE IN NEED OF SUPPORT OUTSIDE OF THE SCHOOL DAY. CARE SOLACE IS A REFERRAL RESOURCE USED BY OUR FAMILIES TO HELP ACCESS, EFFECTIVE CONFIDENTIAL COUNSELING SUPPORT IN A VARIETY OF ISSUES FOR A VARIETY OF ISSUES. OVER THE PAST TWO AND A QUARTER YEARS, 842 FAMILIES HAVE BEEN ABLE TO CONNECT WITH MENTAL HEALTH SUPPORT USING THIS VERY RESOURCE. RECOGNIZING THE INCREASED MENTAL HEALTH NEEDS OF OUR STUDENTS ACROSS THREE GRADES SPANS, THE DISTRICT HAS SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASED SUPPORT THROUGH THE HIRING OF ELEMENTARY COUNSELORS AND WELLNESS SPECIALIST. YOU WILL NOTE ARE SIGNIFICANT INVESTMENT IN THIS AREA AT THE ELEMENTARY LEVEL AS WE RECOGNIZE THE NEED TO FOCUS ON EARLY INTERVENTION. BY PROVIDING DIRECT INTERVENTION AT THE YOUNGER GRADE LEVELS. OUR HOPE IS TO PREVENT ISSUES FROM INCREASING IN SEVERITY AS STUDENTS GET OLDER. IN THE AREA OF PHYSICAL HEALTH AND WELLNESS . OUR HEALTH SERVICES TEAM IN PARTNERSHIP WITH EDUCATIONAL SERVICES HAS DEVELOPED RETURN TO LEARN CONCUSSION PROTOCOLS FOR STUDENTS RETURNING TO THE CLASSROOM FOLLOWING A CONCUSSION. THESE PROTOCOLS ALLOW FOR FLEXIBILITY AND ACCOMMODATIONS WHILE THE STUDENT MAKES PROGRESS TOWARDS FULL RECOVERY. IN AN EFFORT TO DETER STUDENTS FROM BRINGING ILLEGAL SUBSTANCES TO SCHOOL. THE DISTRICT PARTNERED WITH INTER QUEST CANINES TO PROVIDE PERIODIC PHYSICS VISITS OF DRUG DETECTION DOGS AT ALL HIGH SCHOOL SITES. FINALLY IN THE AREA OF EMERGENCY RESPONSE. WE HAVE ADDED EPIPENS AND AUTOMATED EXTERNAL DEFIBRILLATORS OTHERWISE KNOWN AS A E. D S AT ALL SCHOOL SITES IN THE EVENT, THERE IS A MEDICAL EMERGENCY INVOLVING ANAPHYLACTIC REACTIONS OR SUDDEN CARDIAC ARREST. VOLUNTEER VOLUNTEER STAFF HAVE BEEN TRAINED BY OUR NURSES IN THE USE OF THIS LIFE SAVING EQUIPMENT. NEXT, WE WILL PROVIDE A BRIEF OVERVIEW OF SAFETY RELATED ISSUES. INITIATIVES CURRENTLY BEING IMPLEMENTED IN THE 22 23 SCHOOL YEAR. BOTH MIDDLE AND HIGH SCHOOL STAFFS ARE IN THE PROCESS OF BEING TRAINED IN THE AREA OF SUICIDE PREVENTION. IN ADDITION, 7TH 9TH AND 12TH GRADE STUDENTS ARE RECEIVING A SIMILAR AGE APPROPRIATE PRESENTATION ON THE VERY SAME TOPIC. STAFF AT ALL GRADE LEVELS ARE CURRENTLY RECEIVING TRAINING FROM LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT ON UPDATED PROCEDURES RELATIVE TO RUN HIDE FIGHT PROTOCOLS. BOTH TRAININGS BEGAN IN SEPTEMBER WILL CONTINUE THROUGH MARCH OF NEXT YEAR. IN AN EFFORT TO INCREASE CAMPUS SECURITY IN THE EVENT OF A LOCKDOWN. WE ARE DEVELOPING A PLAN TO INSTALL A SAFETY DEVICE REFERRED TO AS A BARRICADE. THIS DEVICE IS RECOMMENDED BY LAW ENFORCEMENT. AND WILL ALLOW STAFF TO SECURE INTERIOR POD

[01:40:04]

OUR NURSES HAVE SUBMITTED OUR APPLICATION TO THE NALOXONE DISTRIBUTION PROJECT THROUGH THE CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES AGENCY, AND WE ANTICIPATE RECEIVING THE NALOXONE IN 4 TO 6 WEEKS. IN THE MEANTIME, WE ARE DETERMINING THE TRAINING REQUIREMENTS AND IDENTIFYING VOLUNTEERS TO BE TRAINED ON ALL SCHOOL CAMPUSES. WE HAVE ALSO INITIATED A RELAUNCH OF OUR CRISIS GO COMMUNICATION APP, WHICH ALLOWS STAFF MEMBERS TO BETTER COMMUNICATE DURING AN EMERGENCY SITUATION. AS THE YEAR PROGRESSES, STAFF WILL INCREASE THEIR UTILIZATION OF THE APP AS THEY LEARN MORE ABOUT ITS FEATURES AND RECEIVE ADDITIONAL TRAINING. THE EMERGENCY COMMUNICATION APP ALLOWS FOR TWO WAY COMMUNICATION BETWEEN STAFF DURING AN EVENT. ATTENDANCE ACCOUNTING OF STUDENTS ALERT NOTIFICATIONS FOR FIRE, EARTHQUAKES, LOCKDOWN SCENARIOS AND MEDICAL ASSISTANCE WHERE NEEDED. RECOGNIZING THE NEED THAT INCREASED HEALTH NEEDS OF OUR STUDENTS. WE HAVE SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASED THE HEALTH CLERK TIME ON EACH OF OUR CAMPUSES. THIS WILL HELP SCHOOLS MANAGE THE INCREASED DEMAND ON OUR HEALTH OFFICES. AND FINALLY WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF ESTABLISHING A PERMANENTLY STAGED EMERGENCY OPERATIONS CENTER HERE AT THE DISTRICT OFFICE. THIS WILL ALLOW FOR MORE EFFICIENT RESPONSE AND PROVIDING DIRECT SUPPORT TO OUR SCHOOL CAMPUSES IN THE EVENT OF A DISTRICT WIDE EMERGENCIES SUCH AS AN EARTHQUAKE OR FIRE. ONCE COMPLETED. WE PLAN TO CONDUCT A DISTRICT WIDE DRILL THIS SPRING TO TEST THE COMMUNICATION SYSTEM IN REAL TIME. I WOULD LIKE TO CONCLUDE BY THANKING OUR BOARD FOR YOUR CONTINUED COMMITMENT TO SAFETY AND WELLNESS OF OUR STUDENTS IN SCHOOL COMMUNITY. WHY WE ARE CERTAINLY PROUD OF THE EFFORTS WE HAVE MADE IN THE AREA OF SAFETY. WE ARE NEVER SATISFIED. WE WILL ALWAYS CONTINUE TO SEEK FEEDBACK FROM YOU AS WELL AS OUR SCHOOL COMMUNITY AND HOW WE CAN CONTINUE TO IMPROVE IN THIS AREA. WE LOOK AHEAD TO GATHERING THIS FEEDBACK THROUGH OUR EL CAP STAKEHOLDER MEETINGS LATER IN THE WINTER AND LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING FROM MORE FROM YOU AS WE SET OUR INITIATIVES MOVING FORWARD. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MR MCCLENDON. ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS? I HAVE A COMMENT. UM I THINK THAT THIS IS AMAZING. AND THIS IS SUCH GREAT WORK AND I'M JUST SO, UM, I'M JUST THRILLED TO SEE UM ALL OF THE PROGRESS WE'VE MADE, AND, UM I THINK PARENTS AT HOME ARE JUST GOING TO FEEL REALLY GOOD ABOUT SENDING THEIR KIDS TO SCHOOL. AND ANOTHER THING I WANTED TO BRING UP WAS A CONCERN SOMEONE SAID WAS WELL THIS NARCAN WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU GIVE IT TO SOMEBODY THAT ISN'T ON AN OPIOID OVERDOSE, AND SO I WAS ABLE TO CONFIRM THAT IF YOU DO GIVE NARCAN TO SOMEONE, IF YOU THINK IT'S AN OPIATE OF THEIRS, BUT YOU'RE WRONG. IT DOES HAS NO EFFECT ON THE PERSON WHATSOEVER. THE NARCAN ONLY WORKS IF YOU ARE IN AN OPIOID OVERDOSE, AND IF YOU GET IT WRONG, AND YOU KNOW YOU, MINISTER LIKE NOTHING WILL HAPPEN TO YOU. SO I THINK THAT THAT'S SOMETHING THAT EVERYONE AT HOME CAN FEEL A LITTLE BIT BETTER ABOUT THAT IS ACCURATE.

OUR NURSES HAVE ASSURED ME OF THAT. AND IT'S SIMILAR TO THE EPIPEN. SAME THING. IT'S NO HARMFUL EFFECT. IF IT'S NOT READ CORRECTLY, IN TERMS OF AND I THINK TO JUST WITH HALLOWEEN COMING, UM WE REALLY, YOU KNOW, KIND OF LIKE TOLD, UM MY OWN KIDS WHO ARE OLDER, YOU KNOW, I JUST, UM WITH THE FAKE WRAPPINGS THAT SOME OF THIS FENTANYL IS COMING IN. I'VE JUST SAID PLEASE BE MAYBE VERY, VERY AWARE WHERE YOUR KIDS ARE GETTING THEIR CANDY FROM, YOU KNOW, MAKE SURE IT'S STORE BOUGHT LIKE I EVEN TOLD MY KIDS JUST DON'T ACCEPT ANY CANDY AT SCHOOL RIGHT NOW.

JUST BECAUSE YOU DON'T KNOW YOU KNOW, WE TRUST FRIENDS. WE TRUST ALL THIS STUFF. BUT YOU JUST YOU JUST NEVER KNOW IN THIS DAY AND AGE, SO UM, BUT, YEAH, THANK YOU SO MUCH. THIS IS LIKE, EXCELLENT WORK, AND I'M JUST SO PROUD. THANK YOU FOR THE COMMENT, AND I WOULD BE REMISS WITHOUT WHILE I HAVE THE PLEASURE OF REPORTING ON THIS AND TELLING ALL THE GREAT THINGS THAT WE'RE DOING, IT REALLY IS THESE AMAZING LEADERS OUT HERE THAT HAVE TAKEN THE LEAD ON SO MANY OF THESE INITIATIVES FROM OUR FROM OUR CABINET, AND SO MANY OF OUR OUR SITE PRINCIPALS WHO HAVE REALLY TAKEN THAT LEAD. I JUST GET TO BRAG ABOUT IT. BUT I REALLY, REALLY WANT TO COMMEND OUR FOLKS WHO HAVE REALLY BEEN THE BACKBONE OF THIS INITIATIVE. ALL THESE INITIATIVES THANK YOU. I HAVE, LIKE A QUESTION AND KIND OF A COMMENT. UM I'M REALLY INTERESTED IN OUR PERMANENT EMERGENCY OPERATIONS CENTER AND WHAT SERVICES OR WHAT? WHAT WILL WE BE ABLE TO DO? AND I'M SURE

[01:45:05]

IT'S NORMALLY STAGED RIGHT HERE IN THIS BOARDROOM, BUT THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT THIS BOARDROOM WILL BE ACCESSIBLE IN THE EVENT OF A OF A MAJOR EVENT, SO OUR GOAL WAS TO STAGE THAT AOC IN A COMPLETELY ISOLATED LOCATION THAT, UM. WE CAN PERMANENTLY STAGE IT, SET IT UP AND BE ABLE TO RESPOND IN AN INSTANT. IF THERE IS SOME SORT OF DISTRICT WIDE EVENT. THAT'S NOT QUITE A READER DIGEST VERSION, BUT THAT'S THE BEST I CAN DO SO IT'S CLOSE. MR MICHAEL LINDON. UM, ONE OF THE THINGS I WANTED TO BRING UP FOR FIRST OF ALL, UM, LIKE EVERYONE UP HERE IS HAS SAID GREAT JOB ON ON SPEARHEADING THIS AND HAVING THE STAFF THAT IS HELPING YOU ALONG WITH THE WHOLE PREPARATION OF THIS. THIS IS THIS IS AMAZING. NOW, QUESTION FOR YOU, THOUGH. I REMEMBER THAT? ESPERANZA HAS A PARTICULAR CARGO CARRIER THAT HAPPENS TO HAVE OR HOLD ALL OF THE COMMUNITY. EMERGENCY RESPONSE TEAM EQUIPMENT IS THAT CORRECT? NOT NECESSARILY SPECIFIC TO THE BASICALLY, THE CITY OF ANAHEIM HAS SET UP THREE LOCATIONS THROUGHOUT ANAHEIM, ONE ON THE WEST END OF ANAHEIM WON IN THE CENTRALIZED END AND ONE ON THE FURTHEST EAST END OF THE CAMPUS OR OF THEIR CITY. THAT LOCATION ON THE EAST END IS THAT ESPERANZA HIGH SCHOOL AND WE HAVE SOME EMERGENCY SUPPLIES THAT ARE ON THAT CAMPUS REALLY INTENDED FOR THAT IMMEDIATE COMMUNITY. AND THERE ARE CERTAIN TRAIN OF TRAINED COMMUNITY MEMBERS THAT HAVE GONE THROUGH THE FORMAL TRAINING TO BE CERTAIN. CERTIFIED UM, THAT LIVE IN THAT PROXIMITY OF THE SCHOOL . SO IN THE EVENT OF A DISTRICT WIDE ISSUE, OR EVEN SOMETHING SPECIFIC TO THAT PARTICULAR PART OF ANAHEIM, THOSE TRAINS CERT FOLKS KNOW TO GO TO THAT LOCATION AT ESPERANZA. TO TAKE THOSE SUPPLIES AND FURTHER DISSEMINATE THEM OUT TO THE LOCAL COMMUNITY IN THAT AREA. NO THAT'S THAT'S THAT'S CORRECT. AND UM, I KNOW THAT ONE OF THE THINGS IN WHICH, UH, IN THE CASE OF EMERGENCY THEY LIKE TO SEEK AREAS THAT ARE WIDE OPEN, AND USUALLY SCHOOLS ARE ONE OF THE PRIME AREAS THAT ARE LOOKED FOR. AND UH, WOULD IT BE POSSIBLE? YOU THINK THAT ALL OF OUR OUR HIGH SCHOOL SINCE THEY SEEM TO BE SPREAD OUT THE BOTH THE BEST GEOGRAPHICALLY COULD CONNECT WITH MAYBE THE SEARCH PROGRAMS OF YORBA LINDA AND PLACENTA OR FULLERTON AND MAYBE HAVE A SET UP LIKE THAT AS WELL. AND UM, MAYBE OFFER STAFF FOR TEACHERS THAT ARE WANTING TO GET INTO A PROGRAM LIKE THAT THE ABILITY TO BECOME A CERTIFIED CERTAIN MEMBER. CERTAINLY THAT THAT OPPORTUNITY CERTAINLY PRESENTS ITSELF. I KNOW ALL OF OUR CITIES. WE'VE GOTTEN TO KNOW THE CITY MANAGERS AND THE THOSE THAT HAVE ARE IN CHARGE OF EMERGENCY RESPONSE. AND I THINK THEY WOULD BE VERY RECEPTIVE TO THAT VERY IDEA. SO WE CAN WE CAN CERTAINLY PURSUE THAT. THANK YOU. YES, UME CONSTANT REVIEW OR THE REGULAR REVIEW AND MONITORING OF THINGS THAT HAVE TO DO WITH PRADO DAM.

UM BECAUSE WE THROUGH THE YEARS HAVE CERTAINLY SEEN ALL OF US HAVE SEEN THE REPORTS OF THE RISK THAT COULD BE INVOLVED THERE AND THE EVACUATION TIME WOULD BE WE COULDN'T EVEN MOVE BUSSES OUT THERE THAT FAST. SO UM, IT'S JUST ONE OF MY THINGS THAT I'VE ALWAYS JUST KIND OF

[01:50:01]

SOME CONCERNS ABOUT UM, OPEN GATES THAT MIGHT BE AVAILABLE WHEN STUDENTS ARE ENTERING AND LEAVING CAMPUS. UM. HAVE WE DONE ANYTHING THAT WE FEEL? WE CAN AH AH AH! SURE OUR PARENTS AND SO FORTH THAT THAT THERE'S ADEQUATE SECURITY THAT DURING THOSE POINTS AND TIME PART OF IT, SOMETIMES IT'S JUST PARENTS COMING ONTO CAMPUSES. UM AT THE BEGINNING OF THE DAY AT THE END OF THE DAY. WHAT HAVE YOU? UM I DON'T KNOW IF YOU HAD ANY COMMENTS TO MAKE AT THIS, BUT THAT'S AT THIS TIME, BUT OTHERWISE I AM JUST ALWAYS INTERESTED IN KNOWING IT WAS A LITTLE ACHILLES HEELS. SURE ABSOLUTELY. AND I ALWAYS ALWAYS HAVE A COMMENT SO I CAN EXPERTLY PRESENT THAT. UM I WILL THANK YOU FOR THE LAUGHTER. WHAT I WILL SAY TO YOU IS, SCHOOLS ARE REALLY BUILT AND INTENDED TO BE PLACES FOR THE COMMUNITY TO GATHER. I THINK OUR COMMUNITY AND IN ACROSS OUR DISTRICT CELEBRATES THE OPPORTUNITY FOR FAMILIES TO COME TOGETHER, AND CERTAINLY THAT THERE IS A GATHERING THAT HAPPENS EVERY SINGLE DAY WHEN KIDS ARE BEING DROPPED OFF AND BEING PICKED UP HAPPENS TWICE A DAY. SO WE WANT TO CELEBRATE THAT RIGHT? BUT THERE'S ALSO A BALANCE AND MAKING SURE THAT OUR CAMPUSES ARE SECURED. UM WHEN THE BUSINESS OF THE SCHOOL DAY STARTS AND SO, UH, ALSO REALIZING THAT OUR CAMPUSES UM ARE DIFFERENT CONFIGURATIONS BUILT AT DIFFERENT TIMES OVER THE HISTORY OF OUR DISTRICT AND HAVE DIFFERENT SETUPS. DIFFERENT ENTRY POINTS, DIFFERENT CONFIGURATIONS AND HOW THEY'RE BUILT, AND SO EACH ONE IS UNIQUELY, UM, NEEDS TO BE UNIQUELY EVALUATED WITH REGARDS TO HOW KIDS COME ON AND OFF OF THE CAMPUS. SO WHAT WE HAVE DONE IS GIVEN OUR PRINCIPLES, THE AUTHORITY AND THE ABILITY TO DEVELOP THEIR OWN PLANS FOR WHEN THOSE GATES ARE LOCKED AT THE START OF THE INSTRUCTIONAL DAY, AND WHEN THEY'RE UNLOCKED AT THE END OF IT TO HELP FACILITATE STUDENTS MOVING OFF THAT CAMPUS , WE HAVE GIVEN OUR PRINCIPLES THAT LATITUDE. CERTAINLY THERE'S ALWAYS FOCUS ON SAFETY ON A CAMPUS AND OUR PRINCIPLES HAVE THAT AT THE FOREFRONT OF WHAT THEY'RE LOOKING AT AND WHAT THEY'RE FOCUSED ON, BUT THEY HAVE TO DO IT IN A THOUGHTFUL AWAY WHERE WE CELEBRATE OUR PARENTS COMING AND DROPPING KIDS OFF DOING IT IN A WAY THAT THAT THAT MAXIMIZES SAFETY AND THE AMOUNT OF TIME THAT PARENTS ARE ACTUALLY ON ADULTS ARE ON CAMPUS THEMSELVES. BUT I WILL TELL YOU IN GENERAL ACROSS ALL OF OUR CAMPUSES. ONCE THAT SCHOOL DAY STARTS, THE EXPECTATION IS THE CAMPUSES ARE SECURED. THEY ARE CLOSED CAMPUSES AND EVERYBODY VISITING THAT CAMPUS THROUGHOUT THE BUSINESS OF THE DAY HAS TO COME THROUGH THE FRONT OFFICE TO BE SCREENED THROUGH OUR SAM SYSTEM. SO THAT IS A COMMON EXPECTATION ACROSS OUR CAMPUS, BUT BUT WHICH GATES ARE OPENED, AND WHAT TIME THEY'RE OPENED, IS A SITE TO SITE LEVEL DECISION.

THAT WE TRUST OUR PRINCIPLES WITH AND THAT'S THAT'S SO LONG STANDING PRACTICE IN OUR DISTRICT. I HAVE ONE MORE. I'M GONNA PUT YOU ON THE SPOT. BUT IS THERE ANYTHING FROM YOUR ANGLE THAT YOU NOTICED THAT YOU ? OH GOOD. I DIDN'T THINK I WAS ALWAYS PAYING THEM, BUT GOOD.

GOOD OKAY. UM, YEAH, I WAS GONNA SAY THANK YOU. SO MUCH FOR SPEAKING ON THE MENTAL HEALTH AND WELLNESS WORK THAT WE'VE DONE IN THE DISTRICT AND I DID WANT TO JUST SPEAK FROM A STUDENT'S PERSPECTIVE. AND SAY IMPLEMENTING THE COUNSELORS AND WELLNESS SPECIALISTS HAS DEFINITELY MADE A DIFFERENCE. UM ESPECIALLY IN MY OWN SCHOOL. I GO TO EL DORADO HIGH SCHOOL IN CASE YOU DON'T KNOW. AND UM, WE HAVE A NEWER WELLNESS SPECIALIST , MR UM CESAR VALDEZ AND JUST SOMETHING THAT HE DOES EVERY WEEK IS SENT HOME A WELLNESS WEDNESDAY EMAIL THAT GOES UP TO ALL OF OUR STUDENTS, AND I KNOW THAT A NUMBER OF PEOPLE DO READ THEM AND WE DO PUBLICIZE THE INFORMATION HE SHARES ON OUR SCHOOL'S INSTAGRAM. AND SO, JUST SPEAKING FOR, UM, A LOT OF STUDENTS AND FAMILIES. I THINK WE DO REALLY APPRECIATE IMPLEMENTING PEOPLE WHO ARE GOING TO HELP US PROMOTE WELLNESS IN THAT AREA, AND THEN JUST I DID HAVE A QUICK QUESTION ABOUT THE CRISIS. GO APP. IS THAT SOMETHING THAT'S CURRENTLY IN ACTIVE USE? OR DID YOU SAY THAT IT'S SOMETHING THAT WILL BE IMPLEMENTED? IT WAS ACTUALLY JUST RELAUNCHED AT THE START OF THIS YEAR, SO IT'S ONE OF THOSE THINGS THAT ACTUALLY ARE. PRINCIPLES RECEIVED COMMUNICATION AND SOME TRAINING MODULES TO LOOK AT TWO WEEKS AGO, UM AND THE STAFF COMMUNICATION FOR THE DOWNLOADING OF THE APP INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO UTILIZE IT, UM, THE PRACTICE OF THE USE OF THE APP THAT COMMUNICATION ACTUALLY GOES OUT TOMORROW TO

[01:55:05]

GO AHEAD. OH SORRY. ONE MORE THING. UM IT'S THIS MUST HAVE BEEN A COUPLE OF MEETINGS AGO WHERE WE HAD THE, UM THE POLICE CHIEF FROM PLACENTIA AND THE OFFICER FROM THE OC SHARES. UM THEY TALKED ABOUT SCHOOL MAPPING. DID WE GIVE THE UPDATED SCHOOL MAPS TO THOSE, UH AGENCIES. WE DID, UM LAMINATED MAPS AND WE GIVE THEM ELECTRONIC VERSIONS WERE IN THE PROCESS OF WE'VE ASKED ALL OF OUR SITE PRINCIPLES AND HAVE SINCE RECEIVED ALL OF THEM BACK TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY'RE THEY TAKE ONE. GOOD. LOOK AT THE MAP. MAKE SURE THAT ITS CURRENT WE'RE IN THE PROCESS OF EXPANDING THOSE MAPS INTO. UM I DON'T KNOW THE EXACT MEASUREMENTS, BUT THEY'RE LARGER MAPS THAT ARE LAMINATED THAT POLICE WOULD HAVE TWO SETS OF EVERY MAP FOR EVERY SCHOOL IN OUR DISTRICT. SO THAT WAY IF THEY'RE RESPONDING IN FORCE TO A CAMPUS FOR AN EMERGENCY EVENT, THEY HAVE THE COMPLETE LAYOUT OF THE MAP. THEY'RE VERY DETAILED. SO IT DOES SHOW. UM ALL THE GAS LINES ALL THE ALL THE THINGS THAT POLICE WOULD WANT TO LOOK FOR. WHEN THE RESPONDING TO A SCHOOL SITE ALL THE ENTRY POINTS CONFIGURED BY THE STREETS AROUND IT, THAT SORT OF THING. SO YES, WE HAVE PROVIDED THOSE IN ADDITION TO THE KEYS TO OUR SCHOOL CAMPUSES, SO THEY HAVE ACCESS TO BUILDINGS FOR ROUTINE AND FOR EMERGENCY RESPONSE. SOMETIMES WE GET ALARMS THAT GO OFF. WE WANT TO MAKE SURE OUR POLICE HAVE ACCESS TO THE CAMPUS TO BE ABLE TO INVESTIGATE ANY POTENTIAL SECURITY ISSUE, SO THEY DO HAVE KEYS AVAILABLE AT THEIR DISPOSAL. THAT INCLUDES KNOCKS BOX. ABSOLUTELY SO, FIRE HAS A KNOX BOX AND THEN ALSO WE'RE IN THE PROCESS OF INSTALLING SEPARATE NO XBOX FOR POLICE DEPARTMENT AS WELL. UH FIRE FOR SOME REASON DOESN'T SHARE THAT WITH PD, SO WE ELECTED TO ADD POLICE BOX BOXES THAT THEY HAVE ACCESS TO SO THAT EITHER UH, FIRST RESPONDER WOULD HAVE ABILITY TO ACCESS A CAMPUS. THANK YOU. WELL, THANK YOU SO MUCH, MR MCCLENDON AS YOU LOOK THROUGH IT. IT STARTS AT 2013 AND EVERYTHING THAT WE'VE DONE.

IT JUST BUILDS AND BUILDS AND BUILDS. UM AND THE SAFETY, OF COURSE, IS OUR NUMBER ONE.

ALRIGHT OUR NUMBER ONE THING THAT WE HAVE TO FOCUS ON. AND THEN AFTER THAT WE CAN DO EVERYTHING THAT WE WANT TO, SO I REALLY APPRECIATE IT AND ALL OF THE DETAIL AND I HOPE EVERYBODY ELSE ENJOYED IT AS WELL. THANK YOU. OKAY? MOVING ON. WE ARE GOING TO TAKE A FIVE MINUTE BREAK. SINCE WE HAVE A LOT OF, UM CARLOS IS TO GO THROUGH AND THEN OUR CONSENT CALENDAR, SO WE'LL TAKE A FIVE MINUTE COME BACK AT IT, SAYS 902 NOW SO 9 10 . WE'LL GO A LITTLE ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU, EVERYONE FOR THE BREAK. NOW THAT TAKES US TO OUR GENERAL FUNCTIONS, AND WE

WELL, IF OKAY, SO LET ME ASK YOU THIS SO SOMEBODY SOME SOMEBODY JUST ASKED IN THE AUDIENCE IF THEY COULD COMMENT ON THAT, AND I THINK THAT IF THIS IS WHAT ARE OUR BYLAWS ARE SAYING THEN.

SO IF YOU WANT TO GO TO OTHER DISTRICTS DO THIS WHERE IF SOMETHING COMES UP THAT THEY CAN COMMENT ON THE ITEM IF THEY HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO PREVIOUSLY COMMENT BEFORE I AM NOT IN, UM I'M IN FAVOR OF KEEPING IT BECAUSE I THINK THAT COULD BE, UM COULD BE A GOOD THING. CURRENT POLICY ALLOWS PEOPLE TO TURN IN A CARD BEFORE THE PUBLIC COMMENTS SECTION AND THEY MAY CHOOSE AT THAT TIME WHETHER TO COMMENT DURING THE PUBLIC COMMENTS SECTION OR BEFORE THE ITEM. UM AND SO THOSE ARE THE TWO TALENT EXISTS RIGHT NOW REQUESTED. EVEN NOW, TODAY REQUEST NOW WOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED, BUT THE PERSON COULD HAVE MADE THAT CHOICE AT THE BEGINNING AT THAT TIME, AND I BELIEVE THAT HASN'T HAPPENED SINCE I'VE BEEN HERE, BUT I BELIEVE IT'S HAPPENED HERE BEFORE. RIGHT BUT THIS IS SO ON THIS ONE. THIS IS THE GENDER SHALL PROVIDE MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC THE OPPORTUNITY TO ADDRESS THE BOARD ON ANY AGENDA ITEM BEFORE. OR DURING THE BOARD'S CONSIDERATION OF THE ITEM. AND SO I THINK THAT THAT COULD BE A GOOD IDEA. I LIKE TO KEEP IT. I EXCUSE ME. THIS IS OUR MEETING. WE UM I WOULD LIKE TO STRIKE OUT OR DURING BECAUSE ONCE WE START THE CONSIDERATION OF THE ITEM, THE PUBLIC COMMENTS SHOULD HAVE ALREADY BEEN SPOKEN. SO EVEN IF IT'S BEFORE THE ACTUAL ITEM OR OR DURING OUR PUBLIC COMMENT TIME, IT REALLY NEEDS TO BE BEFORE WE START CONSIDERING THAT ITEM. LIKE I KIND OF DISAGREE ONLY BECAUSE THE PUBLIC DOESN'T KNOW CONSENT ITEMS THAT WE'RE GONNA BE PULLING. UH AND THEY SHOULD PROBABLY HAVE THE RIGHT TO SPEAK ON THOSE CONSIDERED ITEMS AS WELL. SO DURING SHOULD STAY IN THERE. BUT THEY DO HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO TALK AND AT THOSE ITEMS AT THE BEGINNING, SO THEY CAN PUT THAT ON THERE THAT THEY WANT TO TALK ABOUT THAT SPECIFIC ITEM, WHETHER WE PULL IT FROM CONSENT WHEN WE HAVE WE HAVE CONSENT ITEMS AND YOU KNOW, WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO RESEARCH IT. UM SOMETIMES THE PUBLIC DOESN'T GET THE SAME OPPORTUNITY.

ESPECIALLY IF WE PULL IT AND WE COME UP WITH, YOU KNOW INFORMATION THAT THEY MIGHT NOT HAVE. SO UH, GIVING THEM THE ABILITY TO COMMENT ON THOSE I THINK WOULD BE, UH, PRETTY CRITICAL. THEY MRS FREEMAN IN IN THE TIMES THAT I'VE SEEN IT DONE NOT JUST HERE, BUT IN MY OTHER

[02:05:02]

IF THEY SPOKE RIGHT BEFORE, AS YOU SAID, WE CONSIDERED THE ITEM BUT TO BE ALREADY ENGAGED IN THE PROCESS OF OUR DISCUSSION, AS ABOARD. THIS IS OUR PART OF THE BUSINESS MEETING NOW FOR MORE PUBLIC COMMON TO COME FORWARD, AND I'VE NEVER SEEN THAT DONE. I'VE SEEN IT HAPPEN IN A WORKSHOP WHERE YOU HAVE AN ITEM WHERE THERE COULD BE SOME FORTITUDE OF A BACK AND FORTH DURING A WORKSHOP WITH THE PUBLIC. I'VE SEEN THAT OCCUR THEN. BUT I AGREE. THE PURPOSE OF PUBLIC COMMENTS IS TO GIVE THE BOARD INFORMATION THEY MADE FOR THEM TO CONSIDER WHEN THEY ENGAGE IN CONVERSATIONS AND THEN VOTE UPON THE ISSUE, AND WE TRIED TO MAKE CLEAR RECENTLY THAT PEOPLE MAY COMMENT ON CONSENT ITEMS AT THE PUBLIC COMMENT SECTION OF THE MEETING.

I THINK PEOPLE VERY EDUCATED PARENT BODY. I THINK PEOPLE KNOW THAT AND DO COMMENT ON OUR CONSENT. ADAMS OFTEN THAT MIGHT BE OKAY. SORRY. I'M SORRY. YOU KNOW, I JUST I THINK WE'VE DONE A REALLY GOOD JOB SINCE I'VE BEEN ON THE BOARD. NOW YOU CAN GET ALL THE MATERIALS THAT WE GET ON FRIDAY OR POSTED AT THE SAME TIME, SO THE PUBLIC HAS PLENTY OF TIME AS MUCH TIME AS WE HAVE TO GO THROUGH THIS AND READ, THEY GET THE EXACT SAME MEMOS. UM THEY HAVE ACCESS TO ALL THE SAME INFORMATION. AND SO I THINK. TO KEEP THE MEETINGS EFFICIENT, AND WE HAVE A LOT OF PUBLIC COMMENT THAT EVERYONE CAN MAKE THEIR PUBLIC COMMENT AT THE BEGINNING, AND WE'RE GONNA DISCUSS PUBLIC COMMENT IN A MINUTE. AND YOU KNOW, I THINK THERE'S SOME WAYS TO MAKE THAT MORE USER FRIENDLY. BUT I DO THINK THAT IT'S JUST KIND OF DISTRACTING. I JUST THINK THAT THE ORDERING SHOULD JUST BE REMOVED AND IT'S JUST THAT SO EVERYBODY KNOWS THERE'S NO QUESTIONS THAT WHEN THEY COME TO THE MEETING IF THERE'S SOMETHING ON THE CONSENT, CALENDAR OR SOMETHING IN GENERAL FUNCTIONS OR FINANCES OR WHATEVER THAT THEY CAN MAKE THEIR COMMENT AT THAT TIME. THAT'S HOW I FEEL. MY ONLY CONCERN WITH THAT IS THESE ARE SOMETIMES FIVE HOUR MEETINGS. AND SO IF SOMEONE MISSES THE YOU KNOW THEY REALLY WANT TO COMMENT. AND THEN THEY MISSED THEIR TIME TO COMMENT THAT THEY SHOW UP, YOU KNOW, HALFWAY THROUGH UM. I'VE SEEN OTHER. I'VE SEEN OTHER DISTRICTS , YOU KNOW, DO IT IN THIS MANNER , AND I'VE ALWAYS THOUGHT, YOU KNOW IT'S A GOOD IT CAN BE A GOOD THING AND YES, MR FREEMAN. THEY HAVE ANYONE HAS THE OPPORTUNITY TO SEND IN AN EMAIL MAKE A CALL. AND ANY OTHER WAY OF COMMUNICATION. ALRIGHT. SO ANY MORE DISCUSSION ON THAT? SO WHY DON'T WE DID WE COME TO A CONSENSUS? THAT'S WHAT WE NEED TO DO. SO WE YEAH, WE PRETTY MUCH NEED TO VOTE ON THIS ONE. SO DO WE WANT TO, UM LET'S SAY, WHY DON'T WE? WE HAVE EMOTION IN A SECOND. WE HAVE A QUESTION ON THE FLOOR. OKAY, MOTION, BUT WE HAVEN'T GONE THROUGH THE REST OF IT. SO REDOING. THAT'S WORD. OKAY. ARE THERE ANY OTHER COMMENTS ON ANY OF IT? JUST THAT ONE. MHM OKAY, SO, UM. WITH THE MOTION IN THE SECOND WE HAVE NOW WE WILL, UM TAKE A VOTE, TOO. PASS IT WITH THE TWO WORDS OR UM, OR DURING STRICKEN SO THAT WAS WITHOUT PRESIDENT BROKE REAL QUICK. I DID NOTICE. ONE OTHER THING. THIS WAS LET'S SEE, THIS IS ACTUALLY ON THE SECOND PAGE SECOND PARAGRAPH DOWN. AH AFTER THE SUPERINTENDENT AT HIS DISCRETION MIGHT WANT TO HAVE HIS HER HIS OR HER DISCRETION. DO YOU SEE WHY THAT YOU SEE THAT ? YES, I DID CATCH JUST JUST IN CASE. THANK YOU COULD BE THERE. HOW'S THAT? THEIR DISCRETION? SURE. EITHER ONE. OKAY, GREAT. OKAY SO THAT WHEN WE ALL AGREE ON, SO WHAT WE'LL DO IS WE'LL TAKE A VOTE TO SCRATCH THE ORDERING. IF THAT DOESN'T PASS, THEN WE CAN RE VOTE ON IT WITHOUT LEAVING IT IN THAT ONE MORE TIME WE'RE GOING TO WE HAVE A FIRST AND A SECOND, AND WE HAVE IT ON THE TABLE THAT WE ARE STRIKING OR DURING YES. OKAY SO ALL THOSE IN FAVOR OF STRIKING OR DURING AND PASSING I SUPPOSED TO KNOW? OKAY, SO THIS PASSES THREE TO. OKAY SO THAT TAKES US

[02:10:03]

INELIGIBLE STUDENT REQUESTS INDEPENDENT STUDY AND I E P TEAM MUST CONVENE AND MAKE AN INDIVIDUALIZED DETERMINATION REGARDING WHETHER THE ELIGIBLE STUDENTS CAN RECEIVE A FREE APPROPRIATE PUBLIC EDUCATION FAITH THROUGH INDEPENDENT STUDY . THIS NEW LANGUAGE IN THE BOARD POLICY WAS VETTED THROUGH BOTH OUR DISTRICT AUDITING, FIRM AND LEGAL SERVICES AT THE ORANGE COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION. IT IS OUR PLEASURE TO BRING FORWARD THESE CHANGES IN THE BOARD POLICY TO YOU FOR A SECOND READING, AND WE THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION OF THESE POLICY CHANGES. ANYONE HAVE QUESTIONS, COMMENTS? I HAD ONE QUESTION. UM SINCE SO WE'RE LOOKING AT NO FEWER THAN THREE DAYS. NO MORE THAN 14 IS. WE'RE LOOKING AT THE SHORT TERM. DOES THAT COVER SOME CASES WHERE PEOPLE ARE TRAVELING AND THEY DO INDEPENDENT STUDY? THEY COLLECT THE WORK AHEAD OF TIME THEY TAKE IT WITH THEM, AND THEN THEY ARE ABLE TO TURN THAT IN AND GET CREDIT FOR IT. IT DOES THAT WOULD BE CONSIDERED SHORT TERM INDEPENDENT STUDY. THANK YOU.

THAT WAS MY ONLY QUESTION. OKAY. SO WITH THAT LET'S TAKE A VOTE. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR, AYE.

OPPOSED. MOTION CARRIES 50. OKAY, I'LL NEED A MOTION AND A SECOND FOR PUBLIC COMMENT. THANK YOU, MRS REGULAR. I'LL MAKE A MOTION TO REVISE BOARD POLICY. 93 22.2 PUBLIC COMMENT FIRST READING. AND IF I MAY SAY THIS IS A SEVERAL NEW POLICIES HERE, I THINK ONE OF OUR GOALS OVER THE NEXT QUITE A FEW MEETINGS IS TO BRING IN POLICIES TO US THAT HAVE NOT BEEN UPDATED IN A WHILE AND TO SHARE THOSE WITH THE BOARD. AND I THINK THIS WAS PROBABLY A MORE CHALLENGING ONE.

BUT MANY WILL BE VERY EASY CHANGES THAT JUST UPDATE THE LANGUAGE. SO UM, PUBLIC COMMENT WILL PROBABLY BE A CARRYOVER FROM OUR LAST CONVERSATION. WE JUST HAD BUT THIS IS OUR 93 22.2 PUBLIC COMMENT POLICY REFLECTS CURRENT LAW AND RECOMMEND LANGUAGE FROM GAMUT, ALTHOUGH THIS IS NOT A GAMUT REQUIRED POLICY. THIS IS SOMETHING WE DO ON OUR OWN. AND IT IS ALSO INCLUDES SUGGESTIONS MADE BY BOARD MEMBERS OF PREVIOUS MEETINGS. THE PROPOSED LANGUAGE CLARIFIES SEVERAL PARAMETERS FOR ADDRESSING THE BOARD, INCLUDING PRIORITIZING ITEMS THAT ARE PRIORITIZING COMMENTS THAT ARE FOR ITEMS ON THE AGENDA. IT CLARIFIES THE MINUTES PER SPEAKER. IT CLARIFIES CAMPAIGN LANGUAGE, AND IT INCLUDES OUR CIVILITY POLICY, AND THERE'S JUST GENERAL CLEANUP LANGUAGE IN THERE AS WELL. IT'S THE FIRST READING IS APPROVED THIS EVENING. WE WILL BRING THE BYLAW BACK WITH YOUR SUGGESTIONS FOR A SECOND READING AND PERHAPS APPROVAL IN NOVEMBER. SO MY FIRST THOUGHT WAS, UM, I THINK IF WE HAVE 31 TO 60 SPEAKERS, I THINK WE SHOULD JUST GO 31 PLUS HOUSE A MINUTE EACH, BECAUSE I KIND OF FEEL IT'S UNFAIR TO GIVE SOMEBODY 30 SECONDS CAN'T SAY MUCH IN 30 SECONDS. I WOULD AGREE WITH YOU THERE. I MEAN, I TALK FAST, AND I COULDN'T SAY THAT WAS ONE OF MY NOTES AS WELL. OKAY, SO WE'RE GOING TO BUMP THAT UP TO 31 PLUS SPEAKERS GET ONE MINUTE. MHM I WILL JUST CITE AN EXAMPLE WHERE WE HAD 100 PLUS SPEAKERS. SO KEEP IT IN MIND. THAT'S THE EXCEPTION, THOUGH I WILL ADMIT HOPEFULLY, WE WON'T GET TO THERE. AND YOU'LL NOTICE ALSO THAT WE NO LONGER WOULD TO ACCOMPANY THAT WE WILL NO LONGER SAY A MAXIMUM 30 MINUTES BECAUSE WE'VE YOU KNOW, WHEN WE HAVE SEVERAL

[02:15:06]

THAT'S THE PURPOSE. SO I RESPECT WHAT YOU'RE SAYING. CERTAINLY, AND HONOR THE BOARDS WILL ON THAT. SO JUST TO KIND OF PIGGYBACK ON THAT, EVEN IF WE HAVE 100 COMMENTS, AND THEY ALL GO FOR ONE MINUTE, WOULD WE REALLY TAKE THE 50 AND CUT OFF THE NEXT 50? OR WOULD WE JUST SEE ALL 100 LIKE MRS FREEMAN SAYS HAPPENED? IT WOULD BE MORE RELATED TO WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT. SO IF IT WAS ACTUALLY AN ITEM, AND WE WANTED TO MAKE SURE AND HERE, EVERYBODY'S SPECIFIC TO AN ITEM THAT'S ON THE AGENDA. WE WOULD HEAR THEM. BUT IF IT'S NOT ON THE AGENDA THAN WE COULD TABLE THAT AND HAVE THEM COME BACK, AND THEY WOULD DECIDE WHAT GETS TABLED AND NOT BE ON THE CARD IF THEY SAID IT'S ON AN AGENDA ITEM HERE AND JUST START PICKING AND CHOOSING MEAN IF IT SAYS IT'S AN AGENDA ITEM. THEN YOU NO MATTER WHAT IT GETS IN THE CONSTITUTION VIOLATION BECAUSE THIS IS A PUBLIC MEETING AND PEOPLE HAVE THE RIGHT TO BE HEARD. I CAN CHECK THAT OUT. BUT I MEAN, I WILL EMERGE OF LEGITIMATE QUESTION. I BELIEVE SO BECAUSE AGAIN. IT'S A MAXIMUM MEANS WE DON'T HAVE TO HEAR. THE IDEA IS TO GIVE THE PUBLIC AN OPPORTUNITY TO, UM UH, CONTRIBUTE. YOU'VE ALREADY MADE GONE BEYOND WHAT MOST DISTRICTS ARE DOING, BUT SAYING WILL GO ABOUT 30 MINUTES. AND YOUR POINT OF IT AGAIN IS TO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE INFORMATION YOU NEED BEFORE YOU DECIDE ON AGENDA ITEMS. YEAH BUT I'LL CHECK FOR YOU. EXCUSE ME. THIS IS OUR MEETING. WE CAN'T HAVE YOU COMMENT. THANK YOU. OKAY SO MAYBE THIS IS A FIRST READING CORRECT SO WE COULD MAYBE GET A LITTLE CLARIFICATION ON THAT TO MAKE SURE IT'S NOT VIOLATING ANY QUESTION. OKAY? OTHER COMMENTS. YES AND MY COMMENT IS REALLY THAT THE WAY THIS IS LAID OUT, I THINK GIVES A CLEARER PICTURE TO OUR ATTENDEES OF WHAT THEY CAN ANTICIPATE. BECAUSE DOING QUICK MATH, UM YEAH. BASED ON JUST THE NUMBER OF CARDS RECEIVED THIS. THIS I THINK THIS IS A BETTER ROAD MAP. THAT I THINK WILL FACILITATE AND STREAMLINE EVEN IF IT DOES BUILD IN MORE TIME. I THINK IT DOES REALLY SET UM AS I SAID, A ROADMAP OF HOW WE'RE GOING TO CONDUCT THAT PORTION OF OUR MEETING. THANK YOU. AND I HAVE TO SAY TO GIVE OUR SPEAKERS CREDIT. IT'S BEEN VERY CIVIL. I THINK OVERALL OUT COMMENTS HAVE BEEN ACTUALLY I'M VERY GRATEFUL FOR THE COMMENTS. I THINK PEOPLE HAVE ABIDED BY THE RULES AND PEOPLE HAVE DIFFERENT OPINIONS. THAT'S OKAY. I HAVE NO THAT THAT'S WHAT THOSE THAT'S FOR, BUT I'M APPRECIATIVE OF OUR SPEAKERS. SHOULD HAVE BEEN HERE LAST YEAR. YEAH, IT WAS A LITTLE DIFFERENT. THANK YOU, SEAN. REPLAY THE TAPE WITH NO, I'VE I HAVE WATCHED A FEW. HMM HAVE HAVE A QUESTION REGARDING NUMBER EIGHT. SO THERE WAS, UM RECENTLY SOME LAWS CHANGED REGARDING, UM , CONDUCT AND BOARD MEETINGS AND REMOVING PEOPLE THAT ARE UM OR

[02:20:08]

ANYONE ELSE? OKAY THANK YOU FOR YOUR INPUT. I'LL BRING IT BACK TO YOU IN NEXT MEETING. THANK YOU. OKAY SO WE'LL TAKE A VOTE ON WHERE WE ARE ALL THOSE IN FAVOR. I OPPOSED MOTION CARRIES 50. AND IF YOU WANT TO BRING FIVE THROUGH EIGHT ARE ALL VERY SIMILAR IN MY MIND. IF YOU WANT TO BRING THOSE FORWARD TOGETHER, WE CAN TALK ABOUT THAT ALL TOGETHER FOR FIRST READING AND JUST BECAUSE I THINK WE CAN. IT'S EASY TO DO THAT WAY. SO WE'LL MAKE A MOTION A SECOND ON THE FIRST ONE. THEN YOU CAN TALK TO ALL OF THEM. AND THEN WE'LL GO, OKAY. PERFECT MOTION SECOND, PLEASE. INDIVIDUALLY WE'LL CONSENT. KIND OF. YEAH, YOU COULD MOVE FIVE THROUGH EIGHT. I COULD DO THAT. YOU CAN DO THAT. HMM OKAY, SO WE'LL MOVE FIVE THROUGH EIGHT. I NEED EMOTION IN A SECOND. MAKE A NOTION OF 5 TO 8 SECOND. OKAY SO THESE ITEMS USED TO BE JUST TO BE CLEAR. ARE ALL ITEMS. WE CURRENTLY ALL POLICIES. WE CURRENTLY HAVE S T . UH THE ROLES OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD, THE VICE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD, THE CLERK OF THE BOARD AND THE BELIEVE THAT THE SECRETARY OF THE WAR IS THE LAST ONE. AND SO, UM, WHAT WE DID WITH THESE AND WE'VE ACTUALLY HAD SOME PUBLIC COMMENTS, PARTICULARLY THE PRESIDENT, ONE THAT WE'RE ACTUALLY QUITE JUSTIFIED. OUR FORMER POLICY WAS VERY SIMPLE AND DID NOT CONTAIN A LOT OF THINGS THAT ARE VERY CUSTOMARY FOR WHAT THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD DOES. SO I THINK THESE POLICIES MORE CLEARLY OUTLINED WHAT THE ROLE OF THE PRESIDENT IS, UM THEY WHAT THE ROLE OF THE VICE PRESIDENT IS.

UM WHAT THE ROLE OF THE SECRETARY OF THE BOARD, WHICH IS THE AND THE CLERK OF THE BOARD, AND SO, UM, AGAIN, LIKE BOARD MEMBER FREEMAN WAS SAYING EARLIER. I THINK THEY'RE NICELY LAYOUT WITH THE EXPECTATIONS ARE BUT I LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR COMMENTS ABOUT ANY OR ALL OF THEM IF WE CAN BRING THOSE BACK TO YOU FOR A SECOND READING. I LIKE THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD A LOT BETTER HAVING ONE TINY LITTLE PARAGRAPH AND HAVING NOW , LOTS OF DIFFERENT BULLET POINTS. TALKS ABOUT IS A VERY SPECIFIC, SO I APPRECIATE THAT. UM, I HAVE ON PAGE 26 NUMBER ONE, IT SAYS SIGNING ALL INSTRUMENTS. I THINK IT SHOULD BE DOCUMENTS. THAT'S LIKE A REAL ENGLISH WORDS. DOCUMENTS ME. IT SOUNDS LIKE THE LEGAL WORD, SO YEAH, OKAY. AND THEN ALSO ONE OF OUR PROTOCOLS. IS, UM THAT THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD RESPONSE TO ALL EMAILS SENT TO THE THAT SENT TO ALL THE BOARD MEMBERS. SO I THINK WE SHOULD ADD THAT ON THE SECOND PAGE AS WELL. JUST AS A NUMBER FIVE, OKAY? THANK YOU. ANY OTHERS ON THE. THAT ONE? YES THE PRESIDENT. YES I HAVE BROUGHT THIS UP WHEN I MET WITH OUR SUPERINTENDENT, UM AND I'M JUST GOING TO BE VISITED REALLY QUICKLY ON PAGE 25. ITEM FIVE. UM AH. IT TALKS TO, UH. KEEPING IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE APPLICABLE APPLICABLE REQUIREMENTS OF THE BROWN ACT. AND I HAD QUESTIONED WHETHER OR NOT IT SHOULD SAY, ED CODE. I DON'T KNOW, WHICH IS THE LARGER UMBRELLA. THE LARGER UMBRELLA IS THAT CODE BROWN ACTORS CODIFIED IN THE CALIFORNIA ED CODE, BUT THERE ARE BEING YOU WOULDN'T BE HARMED WITH EITHER ONE AND OR. I HAD SAID MAYBE. AND BUT BECAUSE I THINK WE OF COURSE DO REFERENCE THE BROWN AT QUITE A BIT, SO I THINK PEOPLE ARE BECOMING MORE FAMILIAR WITH THAT , FOR THE MOST PART, THOSE WHO YOU KNOW, TUNE IN OR ARE IN ATTENDANCE, BUT THE CODE IS THIS OVERARCHING, LET'S DO AN END, OKAY? OTHERS ON THE PRESIDENT. DO YOU WANT TO VOTE ON THIS ONE AND THEN MOVE ON. ALRIGHT WHERE WE VOTED ON ALL OF THEM. SO LET'S MOVE ON. UNLESS THERE NO MORE COMMENTS GO TO A REAL QUICK QUESTION ON NUMBER EIGHT OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD RULE ON ISSUES OF PARLIAMENTARY PROCEDURE. UM. MY THOUGHT ON THAT, AND I WAS GOING TO BRING THIS UP AS A POSSIBLE FUTURE GEN AGENDA ITEM IS THAT WE LOOK AT POSSIBLY HAVING A AN ACTUAL POSITION FOR PARLIAMENTARIANS. BECAUSE I KNOW THAT THERE ARE SO MANY OF THESE BYLAWS. BOARD BY LAWS OR POLICIES. AND ED CODE POLICIES. THAT I THINK WE NEED SOMEBODY THAT'S A LITTLE MORE

[02:25:03]

KINDERGARTEN SCARES ME. THAT'S WHAT THEN? OKAY, SO ANYMORE ON THAT ONE. OKAY, LET'S MOVE ON TO VICE PRESIDENT. IT'S SHORT AND SWEET MHM. ANY COMMENTS CHANGES AND THE ONLY REASON WE SCRATCHED OUT THAT ONE LINE IS WE DON'T HAVE BOARD POLICY. 93 24.2, UM SO TO REFER TO, AS WE THOUGHT IT WOULD BE A GOOD THING TO TAKE THAT LINE OUT. GET A FERTILE MATERIAL. YEAH. I HAVE A PARTNER WHO DID CATCH THAT. I'M NOT GONNA MENTION THAT NEWTON'S NAME, BUT SHE'S VERY GOOD. THIS IS HOW WE FOUND OUR PARLIAMENT. HMM YEAH. THAT'S WHY I DID NOT MENTION HER NAME. I THINK FOR PARLIAMENTARIANS, THEY HAVE TO BE ABLE TO RULE ON IT. SO IT HAS TO BE ONE OF US, BUT WE CAN HAVE SOMEBODY THAT COULD HAVE ADVISED US. HMM THOUGHT EXTRA STIPEND SHE MIGHT GO FOR THAT SHE JUST MIGHT. THIS IS HER WORST MEETING EVER ALREADY, OKAY? YEAH OKAY, SO NOTHING ELSE ON VICE PRESIDENT MOVING ON TO SECRETARS THIS WENT FROM LONGER TO SHORTER SO THAT AND MUCH MORE CLEAR THE ONLY THE ONLY THING I NOTICED WAS, UM, NUMBER TWO HAD BEEN UM PART OF IT HAD BEEN STRICKEN TO ATTEND ALL BOARD MEETINGS, AND I JUST THINK WE SHOULD ADD THAT AT THE END OF THE LIST. THE SECOND, THE SECRETARY SHOULD SECRETARY ATTENDANT SHOULD BE AT ALL BOARD MEETINGS. I THINK SO WELL. BUT THAT SHOULD BE THEY'RE EXPECTING LISTED. AND I'M JUST THINKING IT DIDN'T CARRY OVER. SO IS THE EXPECTATION. WELL IMAGINE IF I DON'T KNOW IF WE WOULD HAVE WE WOULD ALWAYS HAVE WE HAVE FOUR ASSISTANT SUPERINTENDENT, SO I DON'T SEE US IN JEOPARDY THERE. YEAH. I THINK I THINK. BECAUSE, REMEMBER WHEN DR EL SASTRE HAD I WAS ILL. YOU STEPPED. I MEAN, WE HAVE A WE HAVE A DEEP BENCH HERE. WE HAVE A DEEP BENCH QUALIFIED BENCH EXACTLY. I'M OKAY WITH LEAVING IT OUT. I DON'T THINK IT I DON'T THINK ITT MUCH. OKAY, SO WE'LL LEAVE IT AS IS AND I WILL STILL BE AT THE NEXT MEETING. OKAY GOOD TO KNOW ALL OF THEM. OKAY ANYTHING ELSE ON SECRETARY? ALRIGHT. MOVING TO CLERK. ANY QUESTIONS, COMMENTS CHANGES. THAT ONE AGAIN FROM A SMALL PARAGRAPH TWO NICE BULLET POINTS. HMM OKAY, SO WITH THAT WE ARE GOING TO VOTE NUMBER FOUR THROUGH EIGHT. ALL IN A BLOCK 5 TO 8. SORRY ALL THOSE IN FAVOR, HIGH AND MOTION OPPOSED MOTION CARRIES 50. AND FIVE THROUGH EIGHT. OKAY NOW MOVING ON TO NUMBER NINE. THANK YOU. THE FINAL POLICY ON THE AGENDA TONIGHT FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION IS BORED BY LAW 9100, WHICH IS ANNUAL ORGANIZATIONAL MEETING.

YOU NOTICE THAT WE ARE CHANGING , UM, THE NUMBER OF THE BOARD ITEM BECAUSE IT FITS BETTER WITH THE CURRENT GAMUT STRUCTURE THERE. THIS IS ROUTINE IN NATURE IS JUST LOOKING AT ALL THE UPDATES AND POLICIES AND BYLAWS THAT HAVE HAPPENED, REFLECTING CURRENT LAW AND RECOMMENDED LANGUAGE FROM GAMUT. UM JUST WHAT HAPPENS HERE IS IT TAKES THE EXPECTATIONS FOR AFTER EVERY EVERY DECEMBER. WE DO HAVE A NEW ORGANIZATIONAL MEETING. UM, AND SO IT JUST MAKES SURE THOSE ARE VERY CLEAR AS WE GO FORWARD, AND YOU CAN SEE ONCE AGAIN IF THE INTENT IS TO SIMPLIFY IT, UM, JUST SO MEMBERS OF PUBLIC NO. WE WERE TRYING A NEW, UM WAY OF SHOWING THIS WHERE WE WERE HIGHLIGHTING THE NEW LANGUAGE, BUT WHEN WE PRINTED THE BOOKLET, THE HIGHLIGHTING DID NOT COME

[02:30:04]

IN FACT, IT ONLY MAKES TRANSPARENCY. BETTER SO NO PROBLEM. I LIKE THE ADDITION TO THAT. YOU'VE SUGGESTED. ANYONE ELSE? NO, THAT'S FINE. ANY OTHER COMMENTS. I THINK THERE'S ONE MORE I WAS I WAS WAITING. THERE WASN'T A SECOND. I HAVE TO GO TO MY SECOND PAGE. YOU KNOW WHAT IT IS WHAT YOURS IS. SURE BRING IT. YOU KNOW YOU YOU CALLED ME ABOUT THIS EARLIER, BUT THE THIRD PARAGRAPH THAT STRUCK OUT YOU WANTED TO INCLUDE IN THE POLICY THAT'S EXACTLY RIGHT ON THIS PAGE. I DO LISTEN TO PAGE 35. THEY STRUCK OUT THE PART THAT HAS THE, UM I GUESS THE AUTHORITY OF THE POWER UM, HOW IT GOES DOWN AND YOU KNOW, I DON'T LIKE OBVIOUSLY THIS NEXT MEETING AFTER THE ELECTION. IT'S NOT GOING TO BE A PROBLEM BECAUSE YOU KNOW WE'RE NOT ALL UP. BUT THIS WAS AN ISSUE WHEN MR YOUNG LAD. MRS BLADES AND I WERE ELECTED BECAUSE THERE WAS NO PRESIDENT, VICE PRESIDENT OR CLERK AT THE TIME. AND MRS FREEMAN CONDUCTED THE MEETING BECAUSE SHE WAS THE MOST MOST SENIORITY AND THAT'S WHAT THIS TALKS ABOUT. SO THAT'S WHY SHE CONDUCTED THE MEETING AND SO I JUST THINK IT'S REALLY YOU KNOW, THIS MAY NEVER COME BACK UP AGAIN. WHO KNOWS, BUT I JUST THINK IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT TO INCLUDE THAT SO THERE'S NO QUESTIONS. WHO STEPS IN AND WHO STEPS OUT, OKAY? OKAY MARKS. FOR ME, THAT'S FINE. IT'S AGAIN.

IT'S TRANSPARENT, GIVES GUIDANCE WHEN YOU ARE IN THOSE EXCEPTIONAL MOMENTS. YEAH. OKAY? ANYONE ELSE? OKAY, SO I'M GOING TO CALL A VOTE ALL THOSE IN FAVOR, HIGH POST MOTION CARRIES

[02:35:03]

[CONSENT CALENDAR]

[4. Approve the service agreement for a ticketing system with VBO Tickets, effective November 17, 2022 to November 16, 2023.]

I WAS HOPING YOU COULD DO THAT. AND THEN I DON'T KNOW WHAT WE WANT TO DO ABOUT THE $2 FOR THE OUTSIDE USER GROUPS. IF THAT'S A WAY THAT WE CAN SOMEHOW MAKE MONEY, BUT I JUST THINK THAT IN THESE TIMES, UM EVERY DOLLARS COUNTING, AND SO I'D LIKE TO SEE US HAVE A BREAK. UM, WITH OUR PEOPLE, AND I SURE. MR GIORDANO IS EXTREMELY HAPPY WITH ME RIGHT NOW. HE'S THINKING WHERE IS THE OTHER $30,000 GONNA COME FROM? BUT, I MEAN, I DO THINK WE SHOULD BE THINKING ABOUT THIS BECAUSE YOU KNOW, LIKE I WILL GIVE AN EXAMPLE. COUPLE WEEKS AGO, ONE OF MY KIDS AND ONE OF THEIR FRIENDS WENT TO ONE OF MY OTHER SON'S FOOTBALL GAMES AND SO BECAUSE THEY DON'T GO TO THAT SCHOOL, I HANDED HIM 10 BUCKS, YOU KNOW? OKAY GO. GO ON IN AND THEY CAME BACK. NO, WE CAN'T.

YOU KNOW, YOU HAVE TO DO THIS APP AND ALL THAT STUFF SO I WENT ON THERE, AND SO INSTEAD OF $10 CONTROL BOX, AND THEN WHEN I WAS PEOPLE IN THE STANDS HAVE BEEN COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME THING. YOU KNOW, I DON'T BUY 10 TICKETS, AND I WAS CHARGED AN EXTRA 10 BUCKS SO I PAID 101 110. AND SO I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S SOMETHING FEASIBLE THAT WE COULD DO FOR OUR UM, YOU KNOW, FOR OUR COMMUNITY. SO MR JU DONALD, WE TALKED ABOUT THIS . I MEAN, I THINK THE PURPOSE OF THAT IS JUST WHAT YOU SAID TO BE REVENUE NEUTRAL SO THAT WE PAY THE $30,000 THAT WE MAKES MUCH OF THAT BACK. BUT BOARD DISCRETION ON THERE, SAID THE BOARD WOULD LIKE US LIKE TO NOT CHARGE THE $1 FOR INSIDE EVENTS. WHAT IT MEANS IS THE DISTRICT MAY BE PAYING FOR THAT FOR THAT SERVICE AND NOT GETTING ALL THE MONEY BACK. BUT THAT'S A SERVICE WE COULD PROVIDE. IS THAT RIGHT, MR JUNEAU? THE EXTERNAL GROUPS. SO THE EXTERNAL GROUPS REALLY ARE CHARGED THE $2 FEE AND THEN WE HAVE THE INTERNAL GROUPS OF THE $1 FEE. MOST OF THE MOST OF THE FEES THAT DO COME IN OR FROM THE EXTERNAL GROUPS. THERE'S VERY LITTLE THAT THE INTERNAL GROUPS ACTUALLY, IF ANY, HAVE INCURRED. THEY TYPICALLY DON'T USE THE TICKETING SYSTEM. AND SO MOST OF IT IS THROUGH EXTERNAL GROUPS. ARE THEY ABLE TO USE CASH? YOU CAN'T USE ANY CASH I HAVE ALWAYS HAD TO USE. I HAVE YEAH. I THINK IT DEPENDS ON THEIR GROUP THAT THAT'S BOOKING AND HOW THEY'RE MAKING THOSE RANGES THAT BUT THROUGH THE TICKETING IT SYSTEM ITSELF. I BELIEVE YOU HAVE TO BE USED CREDIT CARD OR DEBIT CARD THAT THAT TYPE OF A PAYMENT METHOD. OKAY I JUST WANT TO BE CLEAR.

THIS SYSTEM IS ONLY BEING USED AT THE PERFORMING ARTS CENTER LIKE STUFF THAT'S HAPPENING AT

[02:40:02]

CAN WE HOLD ONE MORE QUESTION? DO YOU HAVE SOMETHING JUST GOING TO ASK? SO PERHAPS, DO WE? UM IS THERE A CRITICAL TIME ON RENEWING THIS AS TO GETTING IT DONE? SEE? EVENING. I THINK WE COULD BRING THIS. BRING THIS BACK AT THE NEXT MEETING. IT WOULD MORE THAN LIKELY BE A RATIFICATION BECAUSE WE'RE USING THE SYSTEM. BUT WE COULD DO THAT. IF THE BOARD PREFERS DETERMINING WHETHER OR NOT THERE'S A FEE CHARGED TO CORRECT OKAY, UM, BECAUSE IT WOULD BE HELPFUL TO HAVE JUST A LITTLE BIT MORE INFORMATION ON THE FISCAL IMPACT. I MEAN, YOU SAID OVERALL, IT'S REALLY PREDOMINANTLY THE OUTSIDE GROUPS BUT NONETHELESS, MAYBE A LITTLE BIT MORE INFORMATION. HELPFUL ABSOLUTELY NEED A MOTION TO HOLD THE BOAT OR TO TABLE IT OR WHAT DO YOU HOW WOULD YOU LIKE US TO HOW I THINK THAT YET? PARLIAMENT TO DO IT. ONE IS TO VOTE IT DOWN AND BRING IT BACK FOR NEXT TIME AND THE OTHER IS A FOREVER MADE THE MOTION TO WITHDRAW THE MOTION AND WE CAN GO NEXT TIME I'LL MAKE A MOTION TO WITHDRAW MY MOTION SECOND. OKAY SO IT'S WITH WITHDRAWN, PERFECT WITHDRAWN THE SECOND AND MAKER IN THE SECOND. OKAY OKAY, SO

[18. Approve the professional development service agreement with Edulastic for Grades 6 - 12 with the Placentia-Yorba Linda Unified School District from October 12, 2022 - June 30, 2023. ]

[02:45:03]

[22. Approve the school-sponsored field trips as listed in accordance with Board Policy No. 6153, School-Sponsored Trips.]

AND. SO I KIND OF JUST WANT US TO GO BACK AND REVIEW THESE POLICIES. SO THAT WE'RE MAKING SURE THAT ALL SCHOOLS ARE ABLE TO GO ON FIELD TRIPS. UM SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE SCHOOL YEAR . UM YOUR BELINDA HIGH SCHOOL HAS SIX EXTENDED FIELD TRIPS WITH FIVE DAYS OF SCHOOL MISSING. ESPERANZA UM SIX. EXTENDED FIELD TRIPS WITH EIGHT DAYS OF SCHOOL, MISSING ELDORADO FOR WITH FIVE DAYS OF SCHOOL, MISSING AND INTERESTING ENOUGH. VALENCIA HAS PUT IN ZERO EXTENDED FIELD TRIPS. AND THAT'S JUST THIS YEAR, SO I THINK WE HAVE LIKE AN EQUITY ISSUE. I THINK, UM AS A PARENT IF I WOULD HAVE GOTTEN THAT BILL I PROBABLY WOULD HAVE HIT THE ROOF. AND I JUST IF WE'RE OFFERING. YOU KNOW, EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES . WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERYBODY CAN GO. SO I WANT TO MAKE SURE YOU KNOW, KIND OF TO REVIEW. BASICALLY, UM. YOU KNOW WHO'S COVERING THESE COSTS BECAUSE THERE'S NO COST LISTED IN THESE BOOKS. IT'S JUST SAYS NO COST TO THE DISTRICT IS THEIR LIMITS TO THESE WHAT HAPPENS TO THE KIDS WHO CAN'T AFFORD UM, ARE THERE LIMITS ON BIG TRIPS LIKE ANNUAL VERSUS EVERY FOUR YEARS? AND ALSO, YOU KNOW THE BALANCING ACT BETWEEN EDUCATIONAL PURPOSE AND TIME MISSING SCHOOL? UM I JUST THINK THAT THIS WAS JUST A GREAT REMINDER THAT WE NEED TO GO BACK AND LOOK AT THESE THINGS AND ADDRESS THESE ISSUES. UM JUST TO BE, YOU KNOW, MORE EQUITABLE FOR OUR STUDENTS AND MAKE SURE THAT EVERYONE'S GETTING OPPORTUNITIES AND UM, YOU KNOW, ONE OF ONE EXTENDED FIELD TRIP. BASICALLY YOU KNOW, THERE WAS NOTHING ALL DAY EXCEPT FOR ONE GAME AND I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT OUR IF WE'RE GOING TO TAKE OUR KIDS OUT OF SCHOOL THAT THERE IT'S AN EDUCATIONAL EXPERIENCE. IT'S NOT A VACATION EXPERIENCE. YOU KNOW , WE'RE IN THE EDUCATION BUSINESS, SO I AM GOING TO APPROVE THESE TONIGHT. BUT THIS IS SOMETHING THAT I REALLY THINK THAT WE NEED TO LOOK AT, UM AND AS A BOARD KIND OF WORK ON SOME POLICIES. AND SOME SOME GUIDANCE FOR OUR SITE PRINCIPLES SO THAT WHEN THEY COME UP THAT THEY CAN SAY, LOOK, THEY ONLY DO THIS TRIP EVERY FOUR YEARS. YOU KNOW, WE'VE DONE THESE THINGS. AND THIS IS WHAT WE'VE DONE SO THAT EVERY STUDENT, YOU KNOW CAN COME AND ATTEND. AND IF I COULD ADD, WERE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE A FREE EDUCATION AND THESE THINGS ARE OUTSIDE OF EDUCATION. BUT IT STILL DOES MATTER WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING AT THE ABILITY FOR SOME STUDENTS TO GO AND SOME, NOT, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING AT ONE HIGH SCHOOL VERSUS OTHER OTHER HIGH SCHOOLS AND TRYING TO BALANCE THAT, UM IT REALLY IS A CHALLENGE, AND IT DOESN'T IMPACT OUR DISTRICT BOTTOM LINE IN THIS WAY. UM BUT IT DOES IMPACT FAMILIES BOTTOM LINE, AND IT ALSO IMPACTS OTHER FAMILIES AND STUDENTS THAT ARE UNABLE TO ATTEND. SO I APPRECIATE WHAT YOU'RE BRINGING UP. I APPRECIATE IT ALSO, UM AND SO I THINK WHEN WE DID OUR, UM, THE L CAP WE WERE TALKING ABOUT HAVING SOME TYPE OF FUNDRAISING OR HAVING SOME TYPE OF DEAL THAT RAISES MONEY FOR PEOPLE WHO CAN'T AFFORD IT. REMEMBER WE TALKED ABOUT THAT BECAUSE I'M LOOKING AT THIS AS A FORMER ATHLETE LIKE TO GO TO SOME OF THESE THINGS DANCE NATIONALS. I MEAN, THIS COVERS EVERYTHING. THIS IS OUR ARTS. THIS IS BASKETBALL. THIS IS WATER POLO. THIS IS, UM ARE YOU KNOW THE CASTLE MIDDLE SCHOOL CONFERENCE? THIS IS CROSS COUNTRY. THIS IS CHEER. THIS IS

[02:50:06]

THEY'RE THEY'RE THEATER GROUP. I THINK THIS COVERS EVERYTHING. BUT NOT ONLY DO WE EDUCATE, BUT THESE ARE ALSO THE THINGS THAT HELP WITH GROWTH AND THIS IS THINGS THAT THESE KIDS HAVE BEEN WORKING FOR. AND THESE ARE LIKE THE GOALS AND A LOT OF THESE KIDS. THESE ARE THE REASONS THAT THEY GET THE GOOD GRADES AND THAT THEY WORK HARD AT SCHOOL IS BECAUSE THEY ARE WORKING HARD, YOU KNOW, FOR THEIR TEAM OR FOR ANOTHER GOAL, AND SO I THINK IF WE'RE GOING TO START TALKING ABOUT THESE THINGS WE NEED TO AS A DISTRICT. WE NEED TO START LOOKING AT WAYS THAT WE CAN, UM FUNDRAISE OR WE CAN, YOU KNOW, TALK ABOUT HAVING STARTED FACILITATE THIS SO THEY CAN PEOPLE CAN GO TO IT BECAUSE WE. I MEAN, I MEAN, THESE ARE THESE ARE GREAT EXPERIENCES, AND, UM AND I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE IT ACCESSIBLE TO, BUT I ALSO DON'T WANT TO LIMIT THESE KIDS WHO ARE WORKING SO HARD LIKE WORLD CLASS ELITE DANCE NATIONALS. UM YOU KNOW, THIS IS CALIFORNIA STATE CROSS COUNTRY CHAMPIONSHIPS. I WOULD HATE TO TAKE SOMETHING AWAY FROM THESE KIDS WHO HAVE BEEN WORKING THEIR TAILS OFF. LITERALLY UM, YOU KNOW, TO MAKE THIS SO THAT THAT'S JUST MY TWO CENTS. BUT REAL QUICK AND I'M GLAD TRUSTEE ANDERSON BROUGHT THIS UP, BUT WAS. IS THERE A SPECIFIC WAY IN WHICH SCHOOLS WILL REQUEST THESE TYPES OF FIELD TRIPS? AND IF, IF SO, I MEAN, I DON'T REALLY SEE WALESA . VALENCIA HEIGHTS HIGH SCHOOL IN HERE IS THERE. WHY IS THAT? I MEAN, WHAT'S THE LIKELY HAS TO DO WITH FUNDING? IT'S JUST FUNDING. A LOT OF THE TIMES.

YES, I CAN'T SAY THAT FOR SURE. UM BUT THESE TRIPS ARE FUNDRAISING BY THE STUDENTS, SO THEY'RE EITHER SELLING ITEMS OR RAISING MONEY FROM FRIENDS AND FAMILY IF THEY DON'T HAVE ACCESSIBILITY TO DO THAT, OR TO HAVE FRIENDS AND FAMILY THAT CAN PURCHASE THINGS LIKE THAT, THEN THEY DON'T GO. SO IF THE DISTRICT WERE TO HAVE A DISTRICT FUNDRAISING EVENT WOULD. SOME OF THAT MONEY OR PORTION OF A ALL BE LIKE THE DETAIL WOULD HAVE TO BE WORKED OUT. WE HAVE THE FOUNDATION. ALSO WE DO HAVE THE REACH FOUNDATION WHO COULD AND PART OF THEIR THEIR GOALS ARE ARTS, EDUCATION AND ATHLETIC SO IT WOULD FIT RIGHT ALONG WITH THEIR SO WHAT YOU'RE SAYING IS WE ALL NEED TO BE RUNNING AND THEN IT'S FIVE K FOR REASONS. YES EVERYBODY NEEDS TO GET OUT THERE AND RUN IN THE FIVE GREAT THERE YET, MRS FREEMAN. SOME OF THESE SPORTS EVENTS THAT ARE INVITATIONALS. THEY QUALIFIED A CERTAIN POINT. TO BE ELIGIBLE TO PARTICIPATE. AND SO YOU KNOW, THIS IS THIS IS ONE SET OF FIELD TRIPS. UM, WE'D HAVE TO REVIEW TO SEE IF OTHER TEAMS SAY FROM VALENCIA, UM, YOU KNOW, ALSO ARE SENDING SOMEONE IT MAY VARY. THERE MAY BE REASONS THAT A SCHOOL CHOOSES NOT TO PARTICIPATE OTHER THAN FINANCES , BUT I THINK IT'S A VERY BROAD TOPIC WITH OBVIOUSLY INTEREST TO LEARN MORE ABOUT IT. AND, OF COURSE, BE CERTAIN THAT WE'RE NOT UM, DISCOURAGING PARTICIPATION AND WE'RE NOT LIMITING THOSE EXPERIENCES THAT REALLY DO MAKE THE OVERALL HIGH SCHOOL, OR MAYBE IT'S A DIFFERENT GRADE LEVEL. THOSE EXPERIENCES A MEMORABLE AND PERHAPS LIFE CHANGING BECAUSE THEY PARTICIPATED, BUT BUT THE COST ISSUES ALWAYS A BIG ONE. I KNOW THERE HAVE BEEN TIMES IN THE PAST. I THINK GROUPS WOULD EVEN TAKE THE WASHINGTON D C TRIP AND SO FORTH THAT THAT'S KIND OF GONE AWAY. BUT IT'S PROBABLY A GOOD TIME TO START LOOKING AT IT AGAIN. AND I DO AGREE THAT IT SHOULD BE SOME SORT OF RELATED TO EDUCATION AND WHAT WE'RE DOING, NOT JUST A RANDOM TRIP. BUT IT MAKES SENSE.
