UM WHEN HE WAS SELECTED FOR THE CARLSTON FAMILY FOUNDATION OUTSTANDING TEACHERS OF AMERICA AWARD FOR 2022. THIS WATER IS PRESENTED ANNUALLY TO EXCEPTIONAL CALIFORNIA PUBLIC HIGH SCHOOL TEACHERS NOMINATED ONLY BY FORMER STUDENTS WHO BELIEVE THEIR FORMER TEACHERS HAD A LIFE CHANGING AND POSITIVE IMPACT ON THEM. SO I'M GOING TO ASK WENDY AND MISS BEVERLY YOUNG , THE CROSSING COMING FOUNDATION DIRECTOR TO COME UP TO THE PODIUM, PLEASE. AND NOW RECOGNIZE YOU GUYS UP THERE? YEAH. I WON'T. I WON'T CROWD YOU THERE. I'LL STAY HERE, BUT SO, UM, SO I JUST WANT PEOPLE TO SEE YOU. SO THEY KNOW WHO THEY'RE APPLAUDING. SO BEFORE I TURN IT OVER TO DIRECTOR YOUNG, I WANT TO SHARE A LITTLE BIT ABOUT WENDY. SHE STARTED TEACHING. CAN I SAY THIS IN 1981? OKAY MAKING THIS HER 42ND YEAR AT THE SCHOOL USED TO USE STUDENT TAUGHT IN THE CLASSROOM. YOU ARE RIGHT NOW, UM 11 02 AT VALENCIA HIGH SCHOOL. AH THAT WAS AFTER YOU GOT YOUR BACHELOR'S DEGREE AND SECONDARY TEACHING CREDENTIAL IN MATHEMATICS FROM CAL STATE FULLERTON. YOU'VE ALSO RECEIVED HER MASTER'S IN THEORETICAL MATHEMATICS. I DON'T EVEN WANT TO ASK, UM AND MATH EDUCATION FROM C S U F YOU'VE TAUGHT EVERYTHING AND YOU? I BELIEVE YOU INSIST ON TEACHING EVERYTHING FROM BASIC ARITHMETIC TO AP CALCULUS AND I B MATH. AS A FORMER HIGH SCHOOL PRINCIPAL.

YOU'RE YOU'RE AN M V P ON THAT ONE, BECAUSE SOMEONE WHO TEACHES YOUR MOST GIFTED STUDENTS AND YOUR MOST CHALLENGED STUDENTS IS A TRUE GIFT TO HAVE IT AT SCHOOL. YOU EPITOMIZE THE TIGER FAMILY, AND YOU'RE A STAPLE IN VALENCIA'S CAMPUS. YOU CAN YOU SAY THAT YOU ARE INSEPARABLE WITH VALENCIA HIGH SCHOOL AND WE BELIEVE YOU. YOU WANT SUCCESS FOR YOUR MATH STUDENTS, BUT ABOVE ALL, YOU WANT ALL THE STUDENTS WHO COME TO VALENCIA TO LEARN TO WORK HARD SUCCEED, HAVE FUN AND ENJOY HIGH SCHOOL EXPERIENCES AS A PART OF VALENCIA'S DIVERSE POPULATION RICH HISTORY, YOU MAKE MEANINGFUL CONNECTIONS WITH YOUR STUDENTS, ALLOWING THEM TO ABSORB THE CONTENT YOU TEACH TO ENGAGE IN PRACTICAL STRATEGIES. YOU MAKE CONNECTIONS AND YOU CREATE A TIGHTER COMMUNITY AT VALENCIA HIGH SCHOOL. HER HUSBAND LATER TAKAHASHI IS HERE ALSO WORKS AT VALENCIA AS THEIR COMMUNITY SERVICE COORDINATOR, SUBSTITUTE INTERVENTION ROOM TEACHER AND MEN'S SOCCER COACH. YOU'RE ALSO OUR UTILITY PLAYERS, SIR. UM. P ALONG WITH THEIR SON , BRANDON AND HIS PARTNER, ERIC ARE IN ATTENDANCE WITH US THIS EVENING TO HELP CELEBRATE WENDY'S ACCOMPLISHMENTS. THANK YOU ALL FOR BEING HERE. ALSO HERE TO CELEBRATE OUR MEMBERS OF VALENCIA HIGH SCHOOL ADMINISTRATION, INCLUDING PRINCIPAL CHRIS HERZFELD, ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL WILL STRONG AND SEVERAL OF WENDY'S COLLEAGUES. WE WOULD ALL AGREE AND INCLUDING HER STUDENTS WHO NOMINATED HER THAT SHE EMBODIES VALENCIA'S MOTTO OF PRIDE, TRADITION AND EXCELLENCE, AND WE CERTAINLY AGREE ON HOW MUCH WINDY MEANS TO OUR ENTIRE SCHOOL DISTRICT COMMUNITY AND VALENCIA HIGH SCHOOL. BUT FOR NOW, WE WILL CONCLUDE WITH A NOTE THAT SHE EPITOMIZES OUR FOUR CORE VALUES WITH AN ENDURING COMMITMENT TO EXCELLENCE,

[00:10:03]

ASSISTANT PRINCIPALS, OTHER TEACHERS AT THE SCHOOL COUNSELORS AND THEN WE LOCATE AS MANY ADDITIONAL FARMER STUDENTS AS WE CAN WE TALK TO ALL OF THOSE PEOPLE BEFORE THE PERSON EVEN KNOWS THEY'VE BEEN NOMINATED. THEN I GO OUT TO THE SCHOOL AND I SEE THEM IN THEIR CLASSROOM TEACHING. AND I HAVE TO TELL YOU, UM I'VE SPENT MY WHOLE LIFE IN TEACHER EDUCATION AND I'VE SEEN A LOT OF TEACHERS TEACH, AND I HAVE TOLD MORE PEOPLE THE STORY OF WHAT I SAW IN WENDY'S CLASSROOM THAT I HAVEN'T ANYONE ELSE'S BECAUSE I STAYED FOR TWO PERIODS OF HER CLASS, AND I WATCHED HER TEACH. AN AP CALCULUS CLASS. I THOUGHT STATUS U C L A AND I COULDN'T HAVE DONE THESE THESE EQUATIONS THAT SHE WAS JUST OUT OF HER HEAD PUTTING UP ON THE BOARD FOR THESE KIDS TO DO IN THE MOST FAST PACED, UM, CALCULUS EXERCISE. I THINK I'VE EVER SEEN IT WITH EVERY KID ENGAGED. SHE WENT FROM THAT CLASS PERIOD TO THE NEXT CLASS, WHICH WAS A NEWCOMERS CLASS FOR BASIC MATH KIDS WHO MOST OF THEM DIDN'T SPEAK ENGLISH. SHE WAS JUGGLING AT AT LEAST THREE OR FOUR LESSONS AROUND THE ROOM. UM WITH ENGLISH AND SPANISH, AND SHE DOESN'T SPEAK SPANISH, BUT SHE WAS TEACHING GEOMETRY SHAPES, ADDITIONAL SUBTRACTION. 10 MINUTES AFTER SHE WAS DOING ADVANCED CALCULUS. IT WAS THE MOST AMAZING DISPLAY OF TEACHING . I THINK I'VE EVER SEEN AND IN BOTH CLASSES, EVERY TRAVELLER'S ENGAGED AND WORKING. GREAT WE GO. WE GET HUNDREDS OF NOMINATIONS EVERY YEAR. WE NARROW IT DOWN TO 10. LAST YEAR.

OUR BOARD SHOWS ONLY FOUR WINNERS IN THE WHOLE STATE, ONE OF WHOM WAS WINDY. AND UM, WENDY GOT THAT AWARD THAT'S DOWN IN FRONT OF YOU. WE HAD A BANQUET. UM IN NOVEMBER, WHERE ARE WINNERS AND ALL OF OUR PAST WINNERS WE HAVE ABOUT 100 OF THEM. THEY ALL COME UP TO THE SAN FRANCISCO AREA FOR A BANQUET. AT THAT TIME. WE ALSO BROUGHT TERRY WHEN THIS FORMER STUDENT WHO MADE A NOMINATION OF HER AND IT ISN'T UNTIL THAT NIGHT AT THE BANQUET WHEN WENDY GETS TO FIND OUT THE STUDENT WHO NOMINATED FOR THE AWARD, AND TERRY GIVES THE SPEECH PRESENTING THE AWARD. IT WAS A WONDERFUL, WONDERFUL EVENING. UM WHEN THEY GOT A CHECK FROM OUR ORGANIZATION FOR $15,000, SHE ALSO GETS IT RIGHT. SHE ALSO GETS AN ADDITIONAL I'M GOING TO GIVE IT TO HER TONIGHT AND ADDITIONAL CHECK FOR $5000 TO SPEND AT HER SCHOOL. I ALWAYS MAKE A POINT OF KNOWING THAT THE BOARD THE SUPERINTENDENT, THE PRINCIPLES KNOW THAT WENDY GETS TO DECIDE HOW THE MONEY IS SPENT AT OUR SCHOOL. UM, THERE YOU GO. UM ONE OF THE PURPOSES AND THEN AND THEN OUR HONOREES THROUGHOUT THE YEAR WORK WITH EARLY CAREER TEACHERS, MOTIVATING THEM, SUPPORTING THEM, MENTORING THEM TO ENCOURAGE THEM TO STAY IN TEACHING WERE RECOGNIZED AS WONDERFUL TEACHERS. YOU SAID. WENDY IS IN HER 42ND YEAR. THE OTHER PURPOSE OF OUR AWARD IS TO HAVE THESE TEACHERS STAY AND TEACHING. SO WE'RE HOPING THAT WENDY IS NOT PLANNING TO LEAVE TEACHING ANY TIME SOON. UM AND THE LAST THING I'LL SAY TWO BEFORE I TURN IT OVER TO WENDY IS I'M ALSO GIVING WENDY TONIGHT A COPY OF HER FILE THAT I GAVE THE BOARD WHEN THEY CONSIDERED HER FOR THIS AWARD. IT HAS, UM THE NARRATIVES FROM ALL OF THAT MANY, MANY STUDENTS WHO SECONDED HER NOMINATION, THE STATEMENTS FROM HER COLLEAGUES. AND THE ACCOUNT OF THE CLASSROOM OBSERVATION I MADE WHEN I VISITED HER, SO, UM IF THIS IS FOR WENDY TO READ SHE HASN'T SEEN IT YET. BUT THOSE OF YOU WHO KNOW AND LOVE WENDY MAKE HER LET YOU READ THIS BECAUSE IT'S JUST AMAZING WHAT HER FORMER STUDENTS SAY ABOUT HER. SHE IS TRULY A GIFT TO YOUR SCHOOL AND TO YOUR DISTRICT AS A WHOLE. YOU'RE VERY LUCKY TO HAVE HER. SO WENDY. THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

[00:15:05]

[MINUTES]

[BOARD INFORMATION]

[00:30:05]

ARE OVERALL. LEADERSHIP PROFILES, SO THIS IS A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE FIRM. SERVICE MINDSET. 35 YEARS OF EXECUTIVE SEARCH IS 15. 100 PLUS SEARCHES IN URBAN RULE. SUBURBAN DISTRICTS. IRRESPECTIVE WHETHER IT'S MANHATTAN BEACH. COMPTON OR ANY OTHER DISTRICT. THE DISTRICT IS A DISTRICT AND THE ONE THING IS FOR SURE WE HAVE TO EDUCATE CHILDREN. AND SO ALL OF US SHARE SOME VERY COMMONALITIES AND VERY DISTINGUISHING CHARACTERISTICS THAT WE HAVE TO APPRECIATE THEIR VERY RICH IN NATURE. BUT BY AND LARGE CHILDREN MUST BE EDUCATED, AND THAT'S A STATES, RIGHT? AS WELL AS A MORAL OBLIGATION THAT WE ALL HAVE. LOCAL TEAMS AND WE WORK. THROUGHOUT CALIFORNIA BUT THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY. VERY AGGRESSIVE RECRUITMENT NETWORK. AND SO MY PARTNER, LET ME JUST JUMP BACK, DOCTOR. VALERIE PITS. RECENT RETIREE. SHE'S. FREE OF THE OF THE SCHOOL SYSTEM WORLD SHE RETIRED OUT OF MARIN COUNTY. AND SHE DOES A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF WORK. WITH RESPECT TO TRAINING. AND DEVELOPING FUTURE LEADERS. I CONSORT AROUND THE COUNTRY WORKING WITH SCHOOL BOARDS AND SUPERINTENDENTS AROUND HOST OF ISSUES DEALING WITH ORGANIZATIONAL EFFECTIVENESS OR LEADERSHIP. FISCAL FACILITIES, SO WE'RE VERY MUCH IMMERSED IN THE PUBLIC SCHOOL. ARENA WE'VE DEMONSTRATED OUR COMMITMENT TO EQUITY AND OUR DEFINITION IS VERY SIMPLE, VERY , VERY NONPOLITICAL DEFINITION. ALL OF US WANT EQUITY. WE WANT A COMMUNITY THAT'S REPRESENTATIVE OF OUR COUNTRY. WE ALL BELIEVE THAT EVERY CHILD HAS THE RIGHT TO LEARN. FREE ACCESS TO SPECIAL EDUCATION SERVICES, HIGH QUALITY FOOD THAT'S NOT DEBATABLE POLITICAL AND I CAN TELL YOU I'VE TALKED TO SEVERAL OF THESE BOARD MEMBERS AS A PART OF OUR OVERALL ENGAGEMENT PROCESS.

THEY'VE SHARED THAT SENTIMENT. AND SO WE WANT THE BEST SUPERINTENDENT FOR THIS COMMUNITY. SOMEONE WHO BELIEVES AND PLACENTA YOUR BELINDA, BUT SOMEONE WHO BELIEVES THAT EVERY SINGLE CHILD CAN ACHIEVE IRRESPECTIVE OF COLOR AND OR SPECIAL ABILITY. AND OR YOU KNOW, ECONOMICS. SO IT'S VERY IMPORTANT. SO WE USE RESEARCH AND ANALYTICS WITH A PHENOMENAL BACK OFFICE STAFF, AND WE'RE VERY RESPONSIVE. THESE BOARD MEMBERS HAVE EMAILED. AND THIS LADY HERE, I GOTTA TELL YOU THIS LADY DESERVES A RAISE, MR SUPERINTENDENT. I WANT HER TO RECEIVE A RAISE IMMEDIATELY. SHE IS MORE RESPONSIVE. THEN MY MOTHER, MY MOTHER LOVES ME IMMENSELY. BUT THIS LADY HERE YOU EMAIL US, SHE RESPONDS RIGHT BACK IN TWO SECONDS. YOU ASK HER TO DO SOMETHING SHE GETS, SHE GETS IT DONE. QUICK LIMIT. WE'RE GOING TO TAKE HER. I KNOW THAT YOU MESSED UP. SHE'S ON WELL, YOU KNOW, IT'S OKAY. WE LIKE TO GET SLAPPED IN THE HEAD ON OCCASION. I'M NO PROBLEM. ALRIGHT SO, FOLKS, WE HAVE A VERY AGGRESSIVE TIMELINE. VERY AGGRESSIVE TIMELINE. I BELIEVE THE CURRENT SUPERINTENDENT IS HERE. ONE YEAR CONTRACT. AND, OF COURSE, THAT'S PUBLIC, SO THERE'S NO SECRET THERE. AND SO THE TIMELINE IS LITERALLY. 90 DAYS, 92. 95 DAYS JUST COMPLETED THE BELLFLOWER SEARCH. AND THAT WAS A 90 DAY SEARCH. 90 DAY SEARCH, OKAY? AND WE WERE ABLE. TO MOVE A PHENOMENAL SUPERINTENDENT FROM SANTA MONICA MALIBU. TO BELLFLOWER. SO AGAIN, IT CAN BE DONE. SO THE NOTION AND IT CAN'T BE DONE. YOU NEED ONE YEAR. NO, YOU DON'T YOU ONLY ONE YEAR. BECAUSE THINGS CHANGE IN ONE YEAR, THINGS CHANGED IN ONE DAY IN LIFE, RIGHT? SO THIS IS A VERY AGGRESSIVE SEARCH. WE'RE GOING TO ENGAGE 2 TO 3 WEEKS, MEANING UNDERSTANDING THE ORGANIZATION. WE'RE GONNA BE TALKING WITH THE STUDENT BOARD MEMBER. HE'S ON THE LIST. WE CONTACTED GOING TO INTERVIEW EACH AND EVERY BOARD MEMBER. AS WELL AS THE EXECUTIVE CABINET. MANY OF YOU MAY HAVE ALREADY RECEIVED PHONE CALLS OR ZOOM MEETINGS BECAUSE WE WANT TO HEAR FROM EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU WITH RESPECT TO PUTTING TOGETHER

[00:35:02]

GOING TO BE WORKING WITH THE PLETHORA OF ORGANIZATIONS, NOT THE LEAST OF WHICH INCLUDES SOME OF OUR LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS THAT ARE SPECIFIC TO CALIFORNIA, BUT BUT WE DO WANT TO LOOK FOR AND WIDE AND SO JUST TO BE VERY CANDID WITH YOU, MANY SUPERINTENDENTS OR RELUCTANT REPORT TO CALIFORNIA IT IS A LITTLE EXPENSIVE. AND EVEN THOUGH WE THINK THE SUPERINTENDENT SARIS PRETTY EXORBITANT, WELL, YOU COMING FROM SOME SMALL DISTRICT IN THE SOUTH OF THE MIDWEST, AND YOUR HOUSE MIGHT BE 180,000 WELL. THIS COMMUNITY HASN'T SEEN A HOUSE FOR 180,000 AND A VERY LONG TIME, OKAY? UNLESS THE SCHOOL BOARD WANTS TO PAY FOR THE SUPERINTENDENT'S HOUSE, WHICH THEY DO IN MANY PARTS OF THE COUNTRY. BUT THAT'S ANOTHER STORY, AND I'M GONNA GET OUT OF HERE BEFORE THE TOMATOES START FLYING. AND SO THEN WE'RE GONNA LOOK AT THE SELECTION PROCESS. SO OF COURSE YOU SELECT YOU FACILITATE THROUGH MATCHING IS VERY IMPORTANT TO REALLY MATCH. THIS IS LIKE A MARRIAGE AS IT WERE. TO MATCH THE RIGHT SUPERINTENDENT WITH THE BOARD. AND WHEN I SAY THAT I'M I'M MEANING. YOU CAN'T TAKE CERTAIN SUPERINTENDENTS AND THEY COME INTO A COMMUNITY LIKE THIS TEACHER YOU HAD HERE. MANY OF THESE TEACHERS, THEY KNOW WHAT TO DO. THEY KNOW EXACTLY. THEY COME TO WORK EACH AND EVERY DAY, SO YOU DON'T WANT SOMEBODY COMING IN HERE IS GONNA UP IN THE PROGRESS BECAUSE THEY HAVE A NEW WAY THAT THEY WANT TO IMPLEMENT. BASED UPON WHAT THEY'VE USED IN A DIFFERENT DISTRICT EACH AND EVERY SINGLE SYSTEM BRINGS FORTH. A DIFFERENT MEASURE OF MECHANICS, RIGHT? EVERY CAR DOESN'T OPERATE THE SAME. YOU HAVE ELECTRIC CARS AND HYBRID CARS AS CARS USE HYDROGEN. THAT'S DIVERSITY. RIGHT AND YOU HAVE TO RESPECT AND APPRECIATE THAT MEASURE OF SCHOOL DISTRICT ADMINISTRATION. SO AGAIN, IT'S VERY IMPORTANT FOR US TO BE ABLE TO LISTEN TO EACH AND EVERYBODY. GATHER YOUR OPINIONS AND THEN FIND THE RIGHT SUPERINTENDENT TO MATCH THIS DISTRICT. AND THEN, OF COURSE, THE TRANSITION. NEW SUPERINTENDENT COMES IN, THERE WILL BE A TRANSITION PERIOD. WE CAN GET IT ALL DONE IN 90 DAYS. DR MATTHEWS WILL BE ABLE TO HAND OFF. ASPECTS THAT HE'S LEARNING THE YEAR, RIGHT. HE'S VERY WELL ACCOMPLISHED, HAVING SERVED IN LOS ANGELES COUNTY SO HE KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT TO DO AND HOW TO TRANSITION. A NEW SUPERINTENDENT IN SO THIS IS THE DRAFT TIMELINE. THE TIMELINE IS. VERY FLEXIBLE. I JUST WANTED TO HIGHLIGHT AS AN EXAMPLE OF WHERE THIS JOB WILL BE POSTED. THE ASSOCIATION OF CALIFORNIA SCHOOL ADMINISTRATORS. THE AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF SCHOOL ADMINISTRATORS, ALSO KNOWN AS THE SUPER SCHOOL SUPERINTENDENTS ASSOCIATION. THE ASSOCIATION LATINO ADMINISTRATION ADMINISTRATORS AS WELL AS SUPERINTENDENTS AND NATIONAL ALLIANCE OF BLACK SCHOOL EDUCATORS. ED WEEK. THESE ARE ORGANIZATIONS. AND THESE ARE PERIODICALS WHERE THE JOB WILL BE POSTED. AND, OF COURSE AGAIN , THE BOARD MAKES THE DECISION ALL BASED UPON ALIGNMENT AND BASED UPON A MATCH. THE BOARD IS COMFORTABLE WITH THE SUPERINTENDENT. NO MATTER WHAT THAT PERSON'S FROM THEN THERE IT IS. THE ENGAGEMENT PHASE. SOME OF THESE DATES WILL INDEED CHANGE. BUT RIGHT NOW WE'RE PRETTY MUCH IN THE PLANNING, MEETING AND DISCUSSION PHASE WHERE MEETING WITH INDIVIDUAL BOARD MEMBERS. AND THEN, OF COURSE, SOON WE'LL LAUNCH A COMMUNITY SURVEY THE COMMUNITY SURVEY. THE ONLINE EACH AND EVERY MEMBER WITHIN THIS COMMUNITY WOULD HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO PROVIDE THEIR INPUT. ALL OF THAT HELPS TO FORM AND AGAIN BUILD THIS LEADERSHIP PROFILE. WE'RE GOING TO PROVIDE TIMELY UPDATES TO THE BOARD. NOW JUST TO BE VERY CANDID. THE. SUBSEQUENT UPDATES WITH MORE THAN LIKELY BE IN CLOSED SESSION PURSUANT TO CALIFORNIA GOVERNMENT CODE. AND SO YOU WON'T SEE ME AGAIN. I LOVE TO BE HERE, BUT YOU KNOW THAT'S OKAY, SO WE'LL BE PROVIDING THE BOARD MEMBERS UPDATES IN CLOSED SESSION. OF COURSE, IT'S A VERY CONFIDENTIAL SEARCH AGAIN ENCASED IN THE CALIFORNIA GOVERNMENT CODE, SO THERE'S NOTHING NEFARIOUS GOING ON. IT'S A PRIVATE CONFIDENTIAL SEARCH MANY WE WOULD NOT BE LEAKING INFORMATION OUT. NOT HAVE ANYBODY TWITTER INSTAGRAM, SENDING OUT PICTURES OF POTENTIAL CANDIDATES. WE JUST CAN'T DO THAT FOR THE INTEGRITY OF THE PROCESS. THE LIVELIHOOD OF A SUPERINTENDENT ASPIRIN AND THEN JUST THE OVERALL ASPECT OF THE BOARD AND THEIR OBLIGATION TO COMPORT WITH THE LAW. RECRUITMENT PHASE. NATIONAL STATE ADVERTISING APPLICATION PROCESS OPENS. APPLICATIONS WILL BE THAT PROCESS IS OPEN. IT WILL CLOSE MARCH 1ST. AGAIN. WE'RE GOING TO AGGRESSIVELY RECRUIT NOW WHEN WE SAVE RECRUIT. WE'RE NOT JUST GONNA FLY THE JOBS. AND LET PEOPLE COME AS THEY SO DESIRE. WE'RE GOING TO ACTUALLY GO OUT THERE AND STEAL SOMEBODY. WE'RE GOING TO GO OUT THERE. WE'RE GONNA POACH SO WE'RE GONNA

[00:40:03]

WHERE'S THE BUSINESS GUY? IS THAT YOU? OKAY, WELL, WE GOTTA GET IT WITH HIM SOON. MAKE SURE THAT WE CAN MEET OUR FISCAL OBLIGATIONS THREE YEARS OUT, OKAY? AND SO PEOPLE WILL THEN BE VERY HAPPY AND WANT TO COME TO WORK WITH. THE DISTRICT. NOW PEOPLE ALWAYS TALK ABOUT AND THE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM. YOU WILL ALWAYS TALK ABOUT THE BOARD. ALL OVER THE COUNTRY BOARDS OR BOARDS DOESN'T MATTER SPORTS BOARDS THE REALITY IS A SUPERINTENDENT IS CHARGED WITH OPERATING AND MANAGING THE DAY TO DAY FUNCTION. AND IF THAT PERSON CAN'T DO THAT, THEN WE'RE NOT GOING TO RECOMMEND THEM TO YOU. I DON'T HAVE A COUSIN OR BROTHER WHO WANTS THE JOB, SO THAT AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN. OKAY WE WANT TO MAKE SURE WE GET THE RIGHT PERSON HERE FOR YOU.

ALRIGHT ENGAGEMENT PHASE BOARD INTERVIEWS AS I TALKED ABOUT EXECUTIVE CABINET INTERVIEWS.

THEY'RE GOING ON SIMULTANEOUSLY . STAKEHOLDER SURVEY. THAT SURVEY WILL BE OUT PRETTY SOON.

LEADERSHIP PROFILE. OF COURSE WITHIN COME AS A RESULT. OF THE ENGAGEMENT PHASE. WE'LL LOOK AT THE SUMMARY SURVEYS WILL LOOK AT THE SELECTION CRITERIA AND ALL THE CHARACTERISTICS THERE IN. WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE MATCH THIS PERSON. WHAT THIS DISTRICT AND I'VE TALKED TO SEVERAL MONTHS, REPORT MEMBERS AND AGAIN THEY'RE VERY OPEN. THAT ANY TYPE OF CANDIDATE AS LONG AS THEY ARE PROPERLY ALIGNED, AND THAT'S WHAT WE'RE GONNA DO SO RESEARCH BASED STAKEHOLDER SURVEY THIS IS WHERE I'M GONNA MAKE SURE I GOT DIRECTION FROM THE BOARD. I WANT TO BE VERY CLEAR. NOW AS FAR AS THE SURVEYS CONCERNED, THERE'LL BE CERTAIN ELEMENTS OF DATA THAT WILL JUST AGGREGATE AND I WANT TO JUST MAKE SURE WE'RE CLEAR ON THE FACT THAT CERTIFICATED STAFF CLASSIFIED STAFF PARENT COMMUNITY, TAXPAYERS, STUDENTS AND AT MEN. THOSE ARE THE DATA POINTS FOR WHICH WILL PULL AND THAT WOULD BE A PART OF THE INFORMATION WILL PRESENT TO YOU DURING THE SUBSEQUENT MEETING. I WANT TO MAKE SURE WE'RE OKAY. WITH THAT. WE'RE NOT VOTING. WE JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU KNOW WE'RE GOOD. IF THERE'S ANY OTHER DATA POINT, YOU'D WANT YOU KNOW, VERY TRANSPARENT PROCESS.

I WANT YOU TO LET US KNOW AND THEN WE CAN PULL THAT DATA FOR YOU. BUT THAT'S TYPICALLY THOSE ARE THE FOLKS THAT WE WOULD ENCOURAGED TO PARTICIPATE IN COMPLETE THE SURVEY. AND THAT'S THE DATA THAT YOU HAVE A CHANCE TO REVIEW. ALL RIGHT. THESE ARE JUST SIMPLE SURVEY EXAMPLES AND . YOU CAN ALWAYS PROVIDE ADDITIONAL EXAMPLES OF THE BOARD IS SO INCLINED, AND THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF THE LEADERSHIP PROFILE. SO ONCE WE'RE DONE, THIS ACTUALLY WAS FROM A DISTRICT AND COLORADO. AND SO OF COURSE WE AGGREGATED ALL OF THE SURVEY DATA. AND OF COURSE SHE BUILT THIS PROFILE. THIS PROFILE ISN'T PROVIDED TO SUPERINTENDENTS. ASPIRANTS AS IT WERE. THEY HAVE A CHANCE TO CHECK IT OUT AND REVIEW IT. THE PUBLIC WILL HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO REVIEW ELEMENTS OF IT. OF COURSE, I'LL PRESENT IT PUBLICLY TO THE BOARD. AND SO THEN THIS IS THE H Y A RECRUITING ADVANTAGE AGAIN. YOU KNOW, I'M NOT A SUPERINTENDENT, SO I KNOW THAT 90% OF OUR ASSOCIATES ARE ACTUALLY A BOARD MEMBER. I'VE BEEN ON SCHOOL BOARD WHERE I'M FROM 15 YEARS. I'VE SEEN A LOT IN 15 YEARS. AND SO I KNOW I LOOK LIKE A PRETTY NICE, LITTLE CUDDLY BEAR. BUT. I KNOW MY ROLE , AND I'M VERY SERIOUS ABOUT THIS BUSINESS. AND SO I WANT TO

[00:45:06]

WE WON'T CALL ANY DISTRICTS NAMES, BUT WE KNOW WHO'S SEARCHING OUT THERE. THIS IS THE THOROUGH SELECTION OF PHASE AND SAID YOU WASN'T THE LEADERSHIP PROFILE SURVEY RESULTS AS A GUIDE, AND I KEEP STRESSING THAT WE'RE GOING TO UTILIZE WHAT THE COMMUNITY SAYS AS WELL AS WITH THE BOARD MEMBERS STATE AS WELL AS STAFF. EVERYBODY HAS A VOICE AND AGENCY WITHIN THIS OVERALL PROCESS. WE CONDUCT THE SCREENING OF ALL APPLICANTS. WE CANNOT REFERENCE CHECKS, BLIND REFERENCE CHECKS. WE DO INTERNET SEARCHES, AND THEN WE USE OTHER UNDERGROUND RAILROAD ORIENTED MEANS IN ORDER TO GET INFORMATION. WE KNOW HOW TO GET INFORMATION ON ON SUPERINTENDENT CANDIDATES. WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT IF IT'S OUT THERE, WE'LL FIND IT. IF IT'S NOT OUT THERE WILL STILL FIND IT ALL RIGHT. PRESENT A SLATE ALONG WITH SUPPORTING MATERIALS OF QUALIFIED CANDIDATES. AND THEN, OF COURSE, WE'LL WORK WITH THE BOARD TO PREPARE THE BOARD FOR THE INTERVIEWS AND FACILITATE THE THIRD PARTY BACKGROUND CHECKS, OF COURSE. AGAIN VERY IMPORTANT THAT THE BOARD UNDERSTANDING YOU HAVE TO, AND I'M FAT IQ ABOUT THE BACKGROUND CHECK. YOU HAVE TO KNOW EXACTLY WHO ARE YOU LOOKING AT? BECAUSE ALL AS MY MOTHER WOULD SAY ALL THAT GLITTERS IS NOT GOLD AND ALL GOLD IS NOT GLITTER. SO WE WANT TO MAKE SURE WE REVIEW ARE THESE FOLKS BACKGROUNDS ACCORDINGLY? AND I'M GONNA GO OFF INTO THIS. I'VE TALKED A LOT ABOUT A AND THE WORK THAT WE DO NATIONALLY WILL BE AT THE SUPERINTENDENTS CONFERENCE TALKING TO FOLKS AND SAN ANTONIO. TEXAS NEXT WEEK. AS A HOST OF SUPERINTENDENT ABOUT 3000 OF THEM GATHERING. AND SO WE'LL GET A CHANCE TO TALK TO THEM ABOUT THIS DISTRICT AND THEN INDIVIDUALS OR INTERESTED, THAT'S OKAY. BUT WE'LL STILL LOOK LOCALLY, SO WE'RE GOING TO LOOK FAR AND WIDE, SO ANY QUESTIONS ANY QUESTIONS BEFORE WE GO ON? ALRIGHT SO THE BOARD MEMBERS YOU WILL GET A PORTAL. YOU HAVE A PRIVATE PORTAL SO THAT YOU CAN WATCH THE PROCESS AS IT UNFOLDS. THE FIVE OF YOU KNOW, I'M GOING TO BE TALKING TO TRUSTY BUCK PRETTY SOON. AND SO WE'LL MAKE CERTAIN THAT SHE'S BEEN PRIVY TO THIS AS WELL. AND SO YOU'LL HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO KNOW AT EVERY PHASE WHERE WE ARE, THEY WILL NOT BE ANY SECRETS, NO SHELL GAMES. YOU'RE GONNA KNOW EXACTLY WHAT WE ARE AND WHAT WE'RE DOING. NOW YOU WERE NOT PROBABLY GET NAMES. I'M NOT GOING TO GIVE YOU ANY NAMES. AND THE BELLFLOWER SEARCH IS VERY INTERESTING BECAUSE WE DIDN'T PROVIDE THE BOARD ANY NAMES. ANY GENDER CHARACTERISTICS. ANY RACIAL OR ETHNIC CHARACTERISTICS, AND WE DO NOT PROVIDE THE NAME OF THE SCHOOL DISTRICT. SO WISH.

CLEARLY ON PEDIGREE. APTITUDE AND ABILITY. SO I KNOW DR. MATTHEWS KNOWS THE SUPERINTENDENT PRETTY WELL. BUT WHEN HE WALKED IN THE ROOM FOLKS AROUND THE SHOCKED AND I ENJOYED WATCHING THEM BE SHOCKED. SO AGAIN, AND HE KNOWS WHERE I'M GOING WITH THAT, BUT YOU KNOW HE'S FRIENDS OF OURS. AND SO THE REALITY IS THAT WE DON'T WANT WE WANT THIS PROCESS TO BE SURELY ON PEOPLE'S ABILITY. AND WE AND THEIR CAPACITY TO LEAD THIS SYSTEM A VERY LARGE SYSTEM. ANY QUESTIONS? I THINK HE COVERED IT. I THINK I THINK WE'RE PRETTY PRETTY WELL. SATISFIED APPRECIATE YOUR, UH, YOUR PRESENTATION. AND LOOK FORWARD. TO SEEING THIS WHOLE ROLL UP THIS THIS SOUNDS LIKE A ONE HECK OF A TASK, BUT IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU'RE UP TO IT, SO I APPRECIATE EVERYTHING IN WHICH YOUR AGENCY IS DOING. I JUST HAD ONE QUESTION. UM YOU TALKED ABOUT HOW YOU'RE GOING TO BE ENGAGING THE COMMUNITY TAXPAYERS, ETCETERA. WHAT IT IS. OR WHAT IS YOUR PROCESS? I MEAN, I KNOW IT'S EASY TO TALK TO OUR TEACHERS AND OUR STAFF AND TO US AND TO OUR PARENTS. BUT HOW DO YOU ENGAGE THE COMMUNITY? SO WE'RE GOING TO WORK VERY CLOSELY WITH THE STAFF WERE GONNA WORK. WE'VE BEEN ASSIGNED. TO WORK WITH THIS BOARD AND SUPERINTENDENT'S EXECUTIVE. AND SO WE'RE GOING TO UTILIZE SOCIAL MEDIA AS WELL AS ALL OF THE OTHER CONDUITS THAT THE DISTRICT CURRENTLY USES TO TOUCH PARENTS MAY HAVE A PARENT LINK TYPE.

SOFTWARE BUT THERE IS A WAY THAT YOU WOULD TEXT A PARENT OR WHERE YOU WOULD EMAIL A PARENT. WE

[00:50:05]

BUT. WE REALLY WANT PEOPLE TO KNOW EXACTLY WHAT THEY'RE WALKING INTO. WHETHER IT'S THIS DISTRICT. ANY OTHER DISTRICT YOU NEED TO KNOW. WHAT'S YOUR SIGNING UP FOR, AND SO ESPECIALLY AS WE BEGIN TO LEAN FORWARD IN THE STATE TALKS ABOUT BUDGET DEFICITS AND S R FUNDS, ER ARE, YOU KNOW, BEING REDUCED AS A RESULT OF A SPEND DOWN PLAN AND LOOKING AT ALL OF THE OTHER CHALLENGES THAT THE DISTRICT HAS TO ENDURE. SUPERINTENDENT NEEDS TO KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON. SO BUT WE DO HAVE THE JOB DESCRIPTION. OKAY BECAUSE I WAS JUST CURIOUS WITH THE ADVERTISING. LIKE WHAT MONTH WILL THESE IN ALL THE DIFFERENT PERIODIC ALS WILL THEY APPEAR? YES. SO ON THE ACTIVITY.

BECAUSE IT'S IT SAYS, WELL, WHAT I WAS. MOST CONCERNED ABOUT IS THE APPLICATIONS CLOSING ON MARCH 1ST. AND I'M LIKE, SO ARE THESE. I GUESS. ARE WE ALREADY ADVERTISING AT THIS TIME IN THOSE, UM. ON YOU KNOW THE YOU KNOW, ED SOURCE AND THE. THE GIANT NEWSPAPER. WE GET FROM THE SUPERINTENDENTS AND CSB A. YEAH ALL THOSE WONDERFUL THINGS THOSE WERE ALL IT WILL ALL HAPPEN SIMULTANEOUSLY. EVERYTHING IS ON OUR WEBSITE. SO OUR WEBSITE IS EXCEEDINGLY ELABORATE AND AS A MATTER OF FACT. EVERY SINGLE SUPERINTENDENT SEARCH. WE'RE ABLE TO PROMULGATE THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY. SO OUR WEBSITE ALONE DRAWS A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF ENTHUSIASM FROM EVERYBODY BECAUSE WE'VE BEEN IN FOR SO LONG. SO EVERY SUSPECTED OF PLACING IT IN AXA OR ANY OTHER ORGANIZATION. IT'S ALREADY ON THE STREET. THE JOB DESCRIPTION HIT THE STREET FEBRUARY 1ST.

OKAY, THAT'S WHAT I WAS MAKING SURE, ONCE THE BOARD AUTHORIZED STAFF TO BEGIN EXECUTING AN AGREEMENT. WE BEGAN MOVING VERY EXPEDITIOUSLY. TO PROMULGATE THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY. THE OTHER. PERIODIC ALS OR THE OTHER ADVERTISEMENTS JUST SIMPLY UNCONDITIONAL OVERLAY. NOW IN THIS PARTICULAR ASPECT OF HOW SEARCHES OPERATE. YOU CAN DO ALL OF THAT. BUT HERE'S WHAT HAPPENS . THE REAL SERIOUS CANDIDATES THEY'RE ALWAYS GONNA APPLY 20 END BECAUSE IT GIVES THEM AN OPPORTUNITY TO PUT TOGETHER THEIR PACKETS. NORMALLY, YOUR BEST CANDIDATES DON'T APPLY DAY ONE. A MONTH. THERE'S ENOUGH TIME. FOR SERIOUS SUPERINTENDENT. ASPIRIN, TOO.

GET THEIR LETTERS AND ORDER BEGAN DEVELOPING THEIR RESUME AND LET'S JUST BE CANDID. YOU KNOW, I REALLY WOULDN'T BRING SOMEONE TO YOU TO CONSIDER THIS NOT A SEATED SUPERINTENDENT.

BECAUSE THERE'S NO WAY AN ASSISTANT ON ASSOCIATED. IT'S GOING TO HOLD THIS JOB DOWN AND LET'S BE VERY, VERY CANDID HERE. NO WAY. YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND HOW TO WORK WITH BOARDS AND UNDERSTAND ALL THE CHALLENGES THAT ARE BEFORE YOU. AND SO PHENOMENAL QUESTION. TRUSTEE ANDERSON, BUT THE SERIOUS PEOPLE THEY KNOW THAT THIS JOB IS OUT THERE BECAUSE EVERYONE KNEW.

WHEN DR MATTHEWS PREDECESSOR LEFT, BUT HE ONLY HAD A ONE YEAR CONTRACT. NONE OF THIS IS A SECRET, AND THEN HE CAME IN ON A ONE YEAR CONTRACT AND THAT THE JOB WOULD BECOME AVAILABLE. SO PEOPLE ARE ARE EAGER. THANK YOU FOR ASKING MY QUESTIONS. THANK YOU MUCH, MAN. ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS IS MARCH 1ST A HARD CLOSE I THINK, BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT SHE WAS ASKING ABOUT THE CLOSING OF APPLICATIONS. SO YOU'RE THE BOSS IS WHATEVER YOU SAY. OKAY ALRIGHT, THE BOARD SAYS MARCH 1ST NOW UNDERSTAND SOMETHING. NOW WE CAN KEEP IT OPEN. BUT REMEMBER. IF WE KEEP IT OPEN, THEN WE HAVE TO SHORTEN ONE OF THE OTHER PHASES. EITHER WAY IT GOES. YOU HAVE AN INTERIM SUPERINTENDENT. WHOSE CONTRACT EXPIRES SHOULD THE BOARD ELECTED EXTEND. THAT'S DIFFERENT NOW. I WOULD BE VERY HONEST AND SAY THE LONGER YOU EXTENDED THE LONGER YOU DELAY. THEN OTHER PEOPLE WILL MOVE ON TO DIFFERENT SEARCHES BECAUSE THERE ARE SO MANY SEARCHES THAT ARE UNDERWAY NOT JUST IN CALIFORNIA, BUT ALSO THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY. IN ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS. I WOULD

[00:55:04]

IT'S MORE CRUCIAL NOW THAN EVER . SO HELP US EXTEND OUR THANKS TO OUR DEDICATED AND CARING COUNSELORS AND WELLNESS SPECIALISTS ACROSS ALL OF OUR CAMPUSES THIS WEEK AND BEYOND. I WANT TO ECHO PRESTON'S COMMENTS ABOUT THE UM EL DORADO MARK TRIAL TEAM. THEY HAD A PHENOMENAL EXPERIENCE IN THE ORANGE COUNTY MARK TRIAL CHAMPIONSHIP. THEY WERE IN THE CENTRAL JUSTICE CENTER IN SANTA ANA FOR THE COMPETITION. LIKE YOU SAID IT CAME DOWN TO JUST FIVE POINTS. THEY NARROWLY LOST THAT. BUT IT WAS THEIR SECOND TIME IN FOUR YEARS TO ADVANCE TO THE FINALS, AND THEY ACTUALLY WON IT ALL IN 2019. WHAT'S VERY IMPRESSIVE TO ME IS THEIR TRUE RECORD OF EXCELLENCE. THIS IS THEIR 13TH APPEARANCE IN THE CHAMPIONSHIP ROUND, THE MOST OF ANY SCHOOL IN THE 40 YEAR HISTORY. THE PROGRAM WE AND ALL THE GOLDEN HAWKS ARE PROUD OF THEIR EFFORTS AND THEIR CONTINUED EXCELLENCE IN THEIR PERFORMANCE. ALSO AN ELDORADO WANT TO CONGRATULATE THEIR CHEER TEAM WHO RECENTLY EARNED THE TITLE OF CF SOUTHERN SECTION CHAMPION. THEY HAD A TRADITIONAL COMPETITIVE TOUR CHAMPIONSHIPS ON SATURDAY, JANUARY 21ST AT MARTIN LUTHER KING HIGH SCHOOL IN RIVERSIDE, UNDER THE DIRECTION OF COACH RALLY, BRAG THEY WON THE DIVISION ONE DOUBLE A CHAMPIONSHIP. THEY ALSO WON THIS CHAMPIONSHIP THREE YEARS AGO WHEN THEIR CURRENT TEAM SENIORS REFRESHMENTS SO PRETTY COOL.

PY RUSDI ADVANTAGE, EQUATED ENGAGED COMMUNITY AND WE LOVE IT. I APPRECIATE ALL THE ENTHUSIASM FOR IT. SO I HOPE THAT WE CAN MAKE THAT A TRADITION FOR EVERY BOARD MEETING FROM NOW ON, DO THOSE RECOGNITIONS AND BECAUSE AS YOU CAN SEE HERE, THERE'S A LOT TO CELEBRATE IN P Y EL USD. I LIKE IT. WE HAVE SUPPORT. UM I WANT TO TALK ABOUT OUR FOUNDERS DINNER ON FEBRUARY 1ST. WE EXECUTIVE CABINET MEMBERS AND BOARD MEMBERS HAD THE PLEASURE OF ATTENDING THE P T. A FOUNDERS DAY DINNER HOSTED BY THE P Y EL, YOU KNOW, YOU SEE, UH, ASSOCIATION OF PETA'S, UM, THIS IS 126 YEARS SINCE PITA WAS FORMED IN AN EFFORT TO IMPROVE THE LIVES OF CHILDREN AND FAMILIES. FOUNDERS DAVE STELLAR BUSH LEGACY AND WORK OF THE ORGANIZATION'S FOUNDERS. ALICE MCCLELLAND, BERNIE, PHOEBE EPPERSON HURST AND SELENA SLOAN BUTLER. IT WAS GREAT TO HEAR FROM THE LEADERS OF THE P Y L U. C INCLUDING PRESIDENT MICHAEL STERN. OKAY WHO ALL WORKED TIRELESSLY TO SUPPORT OUR INDIVIDUAL SCHOOL. PTA IS BY ADVOCATING FOR OUR STUDENTS AND OUR SCHOOLS. ANOTHER ADVOCATE FOR US IS OUR REACH FOUNDATION, AND THEY RECENTLY ANNOUNCED HER ANNUAL SHAMROCK AND RUN FIVE K AND TWO K EVENTS WILL BE TAKING PLACE ON ON MARCH 19TH AT YOUR REGIONAL PARK IN ANAHEIM. I THINK ONE OF THE FIRST MEETINGS I WATCHED YOU TALKED ABOUT YOU RUNNING IN THAT EVENT, REMEMBER BLADES? YEAH I BETTER GET AFTER IT. OKAY UM, BUT PROCEEDS FROM THE EVENT DIRECTLY BENEFIT OUR MIDDLE SCHOOL TRACK MEET ANOTHER PROGRAMS HOSTED BY THE REACH FOUNDATION, WHICH IS AN ALL VOLUNTEER EDUCATION. FOCUS. FIVE OH ONE C THREE NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION THAT'S SOLELY BENEFITS OUR STUDENTS ACROSS THE DISTRICT MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE EVENT AND I LIKE TO REGISTER OR ON OUR WEBSITE. UM LAST WEEK WE ANNOUNCED OUR EMPLOYEES OF THE YEAR FOR THE 2022 23 SCHOOL YEAR, WE ANNOUNCED EIGHT EMPLOYEES, ALL OF WHOM WERE NOMINATED BY ONE OR MORE OF THEIR COLLEAGUES AND DETAILED THEIR OUTSTANDING CONTRIBUTIONS PROVIDED DISTRICTS THAT GO AND HOW THEY GO ABOVE AND BEYOND THE NOMINATING EVENT OF VISUAL,

[01:05:02]

UM UH, I THINK, AS MANY ARE AWARE, UM, OUR COUNSELOR BERNARDO YOBA MIDDLE SCHOOL, STACY CALLOWAY RECENTLY PASSED AWAY. UM AS A RESULT OF AN ACCIDENTAL HEAD INJURY, STACY SERVED AS A VALUED AND BELOVED PART WELL, YOU STATE COMMITTEE FOR SIX YEARS, AND SHE'S ALSO AN ALUMNA OF P Y R U S. D. ON TOP OF THAT. SHE WAS ONE OF OUR EMPLOYEES OF THE YEAR WE WERE SUPPOSED TO RECOGNIZE WE WERE PLANNING. WE WERE PLANNING FOR HER TO RECOVER AND COME BACK.

AND SO IT'S IT WAS. IT'S TRAGIC THAT THAT THAT HAPPENED AND, UH UM, EXECUTIVE. AND SO, UM, SEVERAL STATIONS COLLEAGUES NOMINATED HER FOR THIS HONOR. I THINK NOMINATIONS GIVE US SOME THINGS THAT WE CAN SAY ABOUT HER. SHE WAS REGARDED AS A HERO. THAT WAS THE WORD PEOPLE USED TO BETTER HERO ON THE BERNARDO CAMPUS AND BEYOND. FOR THE MATADORS. SHE HANDLED SO MUCH ACADEMIC INTERVENTION AND SUPPORT. COMMUNITY REFERRALS SHE'S CHECKED IN WITH STUDENTS SHE RESOLVED CONFLICTS PROVIDED CRISIS SUPPORT, BEHAVIORAL SUPPORT AND CONSULTATION.

CUSTOMER REQUESTS. SHE WAS A FAVORITE ONE COLLEAGUE SHARED TO SAY STACY DEMONSTRATES EACH OF THE CORE VALUES IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT FROM MAKING STUDENTS FEEL SAFE TO HOLDING DOWN THE FORT. WHEN UNEXPECTED NEEDS AROSE. STACY EMBODIED EXCELLENCE EACH AND EVERY DAY.

HER LOSS IS TRAGIC. IT WAS BEING FELT BY SO MANY IN THIS COMMUNITY AND WE'RE STRUGGLING TO FIND ADEQUATE WORDS, UM, TO CONVEY THE HEARTBREAK THAT WE HAVE. WE WERE AT THE VARIOUS SITES THAT WERE IMPACTED BY THIS CRISIS ON MONDAY, AND IT WAS A HARD DAY. I COMMEND OUR EMPLOYEES WHO WHO WERE THERE FOR EACH OTHER ARE COMMEND OUR EMPLOYEES WHO WERE THERE FOR THEIR STUDENTS COMMEND OUR FAMILIES WHO FOUND WAYS TO SUPPORT THE SCHOOL AND THIS VERY DIFFICULT TIME AND AGAIN. IT WAS A COMMUNITY RALLYING TOGETHER IN AN EXTRAORDINARILY DIFFICULT TIME. UM SO I ASKED. YOU SEND STRENGTH TO THE ENTIRE BERNARDO , YOUR FAMILY TO THE CALLAWAY FAMILY AND TO OUR ENTIRE COMMUNITY. WE WILL BE CLOSING THE MEETING IN HER HONOR. UM TONIGHT AND SO I LOOK FORWARD TO. IT'S A SMALL THING, BUT I THINK EVERY WAY WE HONOR A PERSON'S MEMORY LIKE THIS IS VERY POWERFUL. SO I APPRECIATE PRESIDENT. YOUNG BLOOD. WITH THAT IDEA THERE THIS EVENING. SO THANK YOU. AND THAT CONCLUDES MY REPORT FOR THE EVENING. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU, SIR. LET'S SAY DID WE HAVE A CHANGE IN. OKAY SO WE ARE, UM KIND OF LEAPFROGGING OVER. THE PUBLIC COMMENT WILL COME BACK TO THAT. UM WE'RE GOING TO GO RIGHT INTO OUR

[COMMUNICATIONS AND BOARD REPORT]

[01:10:01]

AND, UM. THERE'S GOING TO BE CONTINUING FUNDING FOR ELOPED AND UNIVERSAL TK ARTS AND MUSIC INITIATIVES. UM THROUGH PROP 28. UM SOME OF THE LOW LIGHTS ARE, UM $30 BILLION LESS FOR EDUCATION NEXT YEAR AND A DECREASE IN THE ARTS AND MUSIC. DISCRETIONARY UM BLOCK GRANT.

AND NO PENSION RELIEF REALLY, SO FAR IN THE BUDGET, BUT WE'RE STILL EARLY AND I'M SURE THERE'LL BE LOTS OF, UM ADVOCACY TAKING PLACE. ALSO WENT TO THE ED SOURCE, UM I LISTENED INTO A ZOOM MEETING ON ED SOURCE ROUNDTABLE, AND IT WAS TITLED WHAT PARENTS AND TEACHERS CAN DO TO GET THEIR STATE'S YOUNGEST STUDENTS READING BY THIRD GRADE. AND IT WAS REALLY INFORMATIVE.

THEY HAD PARENTS ON THEIR TEACHERS, EDUCATORS, UM. ONE OF THE THINGS I THOUGHT WAS REALLY INTERESTING IS ONE OF THE PANELISTS WAS APPARENT AND THEY TRAINED THIS. THEY HAD A HOLE IN THIS DISTRICT. THEY HAD A WHOLE GROUP OF PARIS THAT WERE TRAINED IN SIPS, WHICH IS SYSTEMATIC INSTRUCTION. AND PHONICS AWARENESS, PHONICS AND SIGHT WORK SITE WORDS AND I PROBABLY SCREWED THAT UP. DR ALLISON CAN STRAIGHTEN ME OUT LATER. UM AND I JUST THOUGHT IT WAS AN INTERESTING WAY OF HOW THEY COULD UTILIZE PARENTS AND ALSO, YOU KNOW, THEY COVERED TOPICS FOR ADVOCACY FOR PARENTS, LIKE WHAT A PARENT CAN DO WHEN THEY FEEL LIKE THEIR CHILD IS NOT QUITE MEETING UP. WHAT ARE THE BEST APPROACH IS WITH THE TEACHER AND HOW TO ADDRESS THAT.

AND WHAT THEY COULD DO AT HOME, UM, INCREASING LANGUAGE INTRODUCING NEW VOCABULARY, ETCETERA AND, UM. AND ANOTHER THING THEY TALKED ABOUT WAS HOW SOME COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITY TEACHINGS PROGRAMS ARE KIND OF LAGGING BEHIND AND UPDATING THEIR TEACHING READING PROGRAMS . UM THEY'RE NOT TEACHING FUNDAMENTAL SKILLS AND READING. AND SO THAT WAS KIND OF A TOPIC OF DISCUSSION. LIKE HOW HOW COULD THEY GET THAT HAPPENING QUICKER AND WHAT THEY COULD DO

[01:15:05]

ALSO ONE OTHER, UM THING IN RESOLUTION, 22 OH, FIVE RED RIBBON WEEK. WE ARE THAT WE APPROVED IN OCTOBER. THE BOARD OF EDUCATION, IT STATES. THE BOARD OF EDUCATION ENCOURAGES STUDENTS, PARENTS AND STAFF TO EDUCATE THEMSELVES ON CURRENT DRUG. CHANCE. DRUG TRENDS.

EXCUSE ME, AND I'M REALLY PROUD OF OUR NURSING STAFF LEADING THE WAY TO TRAIN OVER 250 STAFF MEMBERS AND HOW TO MINISTER NARCAN AND THE RESPONSE TO AN OPIATE OVERDOSE ON CAMPUS BY PLACING ARCONIC EACH SCHOOL SITE. AND ONCE PERSONNEL HAS BEEN TRAINED, AND I HAPPENED TO RUN INTO MICHELLE DEHAVEN LAST WEEK ON ONE OF THE CAMPUSES, SHE WAS DELIVERING NARCAN TO THE SITE, AND I GOT TO UM BE A SIDELINE TO HER DISCUSSION WITH THE PRINCIPLE THAT WHO ELSE ON THE CAMPUS COULD BE TRAINED AND WHAT THEY COULD DO TO MAKE THIS WORK FOR THEIR STAFF. AND I JUST MM. JUST THROUGH LISTENING TO THIS CONVERSATION. YOU REALIZE WHAT A HUGE UNDERTAKING THAT THEY'VE TAKEN ON AND MAKING SURE THAT EACH SCHOOL IS FULLY COVERED, AND I'M JUST SO GRATEFUL FOR ALL THE NURSES INVOLVED THAT HAVE DONE SO MUCH WORK TO DO THIS AND UM AND HOPEFULLY LATER IN THIS MEETING. WE WILL BE, UM APPROVING THE SPORT OF SUPERVISORS GRANT FOR $20,000 TO HELP PURCHASE NOR CAN AND HAVE IT READILY AVAILABLE IF NEEDED. AND ALSO, UM I LIKE MAYBE FORWARD TO HEARING HOW WE ARE EDUCATING OUR STUDENTS, MAYBE. AND THEN UPDATE, UM, AGAINST THE DANGERS OF FENTANYL. YOU KNOW, AS IT CAN BE DISGUISED TO LOOK LIKE CANDY MARIJUANA, PUTTING PILLS THAT RESEMBLE OTHER PRESCRIPTION OPIATES. AND SO WHAT WE CAN DO TO REALLY HELP OUR STUDENTS, ESPECIALLY IN SOME OF THE YOUNGER AGES. BECAUSE IT'S JUST SO THERE AND THAT'S THE END OF MY REPORT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. YES ABSOLUTELY. UM, FENTANYL IS, UH, IS VICIOUS.

IT'S IT DEFINITELY TAKES NO PRISONERS. IT'S ONE OF THOSE DRUGS THAT YOU CAN DO ONE TIME AND THAT COULD BE THE END OF IT. SO UH, LOVE MORE EDUCATION ON THOSE TYPES OF DRUGS FOR SURE.

THANK YOU. MR FRASER. ALRIGHT UH , IT WAS MENTIONED EARLIER ABOUT THE SUCCESS OF ATHLETICS AT OUR SCHOOLS ACROSS THE DISTRICT, ESPECIALLY AT ESPERANZA, WHERE WE'VE GOT, UM ALMOST EVERY WINTER SPORTS GOING TO SEE IF SOMETHING SPECIFICALLY THAT I WAS ABLE TO. I HAD THE HONOR OF ATTENDING WAS BOTH THE BOYS AND GIRLS. VARSITY BASKETBALL WERE LEAGUE CHAMPIONS TOGETHER. AND WE DID A NET CUTTING CEREMONY IN THE GYM TO COMMEMORATE THAT, AND IT JUST I THINK IT GOES TO SHOW WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU GET A GROUP OF STUDENTS TOGETHER THAT ARE WILLING TO WORK TOWARDS A COMMON GOAL. SOMETHING ELSE THAT I FIND VERY INTERESTING, ESPECIALLY ABOUT OUR GIRLS. UM THERE IS A COMBINED GPA ON THAT BASKETBALL TEAM AT ESPERANZA. AH THAT IS APPROACHING FOUR POINT.

OH, FOUR. ALMOST EVERY PLAYER. WHO AND THEY'VE GONE TO HAWAII FOR A WEEK LONG TOURNAMENT. THEY WERE GONE ALL SPRING BREAK DOWN IN ELSINORE ON A TOURNAMENT AND THEY ALL COMPLETED FINALS. I MEAN, THE AMOUNT OF DEDICATION EFFORT JUST LIKE WE SEE WITH THE TEACHERS THAT ARE BEING RECOGNIZED. WE HAVE STUDENTS THAT ARE WILLING TO DO THE WORK EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE STRETCHED TO THE BREAKING POINT. YET THEY'RE ABLE TO THEY'RE ABLE TO SUCCEED, AND I THINK IT JUST IS SUCH A TESTAMENT TO HOW STUDENTS CAN BE MOTIVATED TO ACTUALLY SUCCEED IN THE CLASSROOM. IN SO MANY AREAS WHERE WE'RE HAVING ISSUES. WE NEED TO FIND MOTIVATIONS FOR MORE STUDENTS TO

[01:20:01]

OVER SINCE OUR LAST MEETING, AND I'VE BEEN TALKING WITH SEVERAL PARENTS ABOUT HOW THAT WORKS, AND I GOT A FLOW CHART, AND THERE'S THINGS THAT I'M LEARNING ABOUT THE POLICIES OF HOW THINGS ARE DONE HERE AT THE DISTRICT THAT SEEMED A LITTLE BIT BACKWARDS. THERE'S SOME STEPS THAT FEEL LIKE THEY'RE CIRCUMVENTING THINGS THAT ARE IN PLACE. THAT WE NEED TO CHANGE.

THERE WERE THINGS WITHIN THAT THE FLOW CHART OF HOW THAT PROCESS WORK THAT I THINK COULD BE. WE COULD HAVE SOME EFFICIENCIES THAT MAKE THINGS BETTER. WE'RE RELYING A LOT ON PARENTS TO DO RESEARCH THAT COULD BE SHORTENED FOR THEM. BUT WE DO WANT PARENTS INVOLVED.

THERE'S SO MANY THINGS I SEE RELATED TO POLICIES IN THE DISTRICT THAT I'M I'M WANTING TO PUT IN PLACE, AND ESPECIALLY AS WE LOOK FOR A SUPERINTENDENT, SOMEBODY THAT'S UH, WELL VERSED IN HOW POLICY IS SUPPOSED TO BE FOLLOWED, AND THAT IS SOMETHING THAT I LOOK FORWARD TO WITH MR ALI AND THE SEARCH TEAM TO FIND SOMEBODY THAT'S GOING TO BE ABLE TO IMPLEMENT THAT IN A WAY THAT IS THE BEST FOR OUR DISTRICT BECAUSE WE CAN FIND THE BEST PERSON FOR THE JOB. AND THEN FINALLY, AS, UH, MANY OF YOU KNOW, WE GET A LOT OF EMAILS. UM A LOT OF EMAILS. SOME ARE GREAT . SOME ARE PROBLEMS. A LOT OF IT IS JUST KEEPING US INFORMED WITH WHAT'S GOING ON. THERE WAS A COUPLE OF EMAILS THAT WERE RELATED TO SOME THINGS OUT OF OUR CAMPUSES THAT I THINK NEED TO BE ADDRESSED DIRECTLY. SO THERE'S UM, SPECIFICALLY, UM, THERE'S A POTENTIAL ISSUE WITH SOME OF THE DOORS THAT GEORGE KEY THAT SEEMS LIKE IT'S A VERY SIMPLE FIX. SO I'M GOING TO BE INVESTIGATING THAT AND DEALING WITH DR MATTHEWS AND EVERYBODY ELSE INVOLVED TO MAKE SURE THAT WE CAN HAVE THE BEST OPPORTUNITY FOR ALL OF OUR STUDENTS THAT ALLOWS THEM TO SUCCEED. SO AGAIN . I'M I'VE SAID IT EVERY MEETING SO FAR, BUT IT'S ALL ABOUT THE KIDS. IT'S ALL ABOUT THEIR SUCCESS IN THE CLASSROOM AND OUT OF THE CLASSROOM. AND I'M JUST, UH I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO THE MONTHS AND YEARS AHEAD. THANK YOU. HMM HMM. OK, OKAY. OKAY I'M GONNA GO AHEAD AND JUMP OVER TRUSTEE BLADES BECAUSE I CAN BE A LITTLE LONG WINDED. JUST KIDDING. UM OKAY. SO IN MY BOARD REPORT, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT UH I MET WITH MR ALI THROUGH HIS ORGANIZATION. UM AND, UH, HE WAS . GIVEN ME SOME, UM SOME SOME TIDBITS OF KNOWLEDGE IN ORDER TO, UH, LOOK FOR THE APPROPRIATE SUPERINTENDENT. WHAT SOME OF THOSE CHARACTERISTICS MIGHT BE LIKE, OR SOME OF THE QUALITIES THAT, UH, YOU KNOW, I WOULD LIKE TO SEE AND, UM I BELIEVE THAT, UH OUR MISSION STATEMENT KIND OF KIND OF ENCOMPASSES THAT AND, UH , OUR MISSION STATEMENT, IF YOU DON'T KNOW IS TO INSPIRE ALL STUDENTS THROUGH RIGOROUS AND RELEVANT EDUCATIONAL EXPERIENCES THAT EMPOWER THEM TO BE BECOME RESPONSIBLE, ETHICAL AND CONTRIBUTING CITIZENS. I FELT THAT WAS PROBABLY ONE OF THE BEST THINGS IN WHICH I COULD PROVIDE HIM. UM SO, UM, AS YOU FOLKS HEARD TONIGHT, HE'S A HE'S PUT TOGETHER A WHOLE FORM FORMULA IN ORDER TO DO SO. SO I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO THAT. UM ALSO GOT TO KIND OF SIT IN ON THE GOVERNOR. GOVERNORS BUDGET MEETING, BOY, I TELL YOU, UM LET'S JUST SAY I'M NOT GOING TO GO OVER IT TONIGHT BECAUSE YOU'RE GOING TO GET SOME OF THAT INFORMATION. BUT THERE WERE A LOT OF NUMBERS INVOLVED IN. UM DEFINITELY I HAD A HEADACHE AT THE END OF THAT ONE. SO, UM YOU CAN LISTEN TO THAT INFORMATION HERE MOMENTARILY ALSO HAD A PHONE INTERVIEW WITH OUR NEW LEGAL COUNSEL OF, UH OHH TALKED TO DAVE HUFF. UM AND, UH, HE WAS KIND OF RECONFIRMING THE TRANSITION PHASE THAT WE MOVE AWAY FROM ATKINSON AND THE THINGS IN WHICH THEY ARE INVOLVED IN, AND, UH AH! HELL THEY WOULD GO AHEAD AND PASS THAT BATON AND IN L ALL AREAS, INCLUDING AH, AH SPECIAL EDUCATION, HUMAN RESOURCES AND ALSO PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT. SO I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO THAT. I KNOW THAT UM, THEY'RE GOING TO BE THEY'RE GOING TO CONDUCT A VERY, UH AH, CONDUCIVE AND FOCUSED RELATIONSHIP WITH THE BOARD AND THE DISTRICT. AH NEXT . I ALSO SET IN ON THE PARENT EL CAP IN WHICH DR MATTHEWS SAID,

[01:25:02]

IT'S A LOT TO TAKE IN, BUT IT'S GOOD. AH! LASTLY I'LL BE ATTENDING A C P T. C P. C, WHICH IS A CALIFORNIA POLICY. UM CENTER CONFERENCE. THIS IS A TWO DAY CONFERENCE THAT'S BEING HELD IN SACRAMENTO. IT'S AH, THE POLICY CENTERS. SECOND ANNUAL PARENT UNION LEGISLATIVE SUMMIT.

AND IT'S ENTITLED PARENTS, NOT PARTISANS. AND IT WILL ALSO CONCLUDE AT THE, UH ON DAY TWO AT THE STEPS OF THE STATE CAPITAL, SO I'M REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO THAT. IT'S GOING TO BE PRETTY PRETTY AMAZING STUFF. SO UM, THAT WILL CONCLUDE MY BOARD REPORT AND BACK TO TRUSTEE BLADES. THANK YOU, PRESIDENT. YOUNG BLOOD. FIRST OF ALL, I THINK YOU DID FORGET SOMETHING.

WE BOTH VISITED. VALID AS MIDDLE SCHOOL, UM, A COUPLE WEEKS AGO TO HEAR GUEST SPEAKER KEITH HOPKINS. HE BROUGHT A POWERFUL MESSAGE TO THE STUDENTS AND THE STAFF. HE WAS EXTREMELY WELL RECEIVED. AND I BELIEVE HE LEFT AN IMPACT ON ALL OF OUR STUDENTS AND OUR STAFF AS WELL LEFT AN IMPACT ON MYSELF AND ALSO, UH, JOHN YOUNG, BUT EVEN THOUGH I FORGOT. I VISITED. UH WELL, FIRST OF ALL BEFORE I FORGET, UM MARK MYERS, WHO IS OUR ESPERANZA CHOIR DIRECTOR. HE WAS HERE LAST MEETING AND HE WAS ASKING ABOUT OUR PROP 28 FUNDING AND WHAT OUR PLAN IS. AND SO I WAS CURIOUS IF WE HAD STARTED, UM GETTING THAT PLAN TOGETHER AND WHAT THAT LOOKED LIKE. ONE THING I REALLY WANTED TO HIT ON AND I'M TRYING TO BE QUICK BECAUSE OF A SPECIAL SOME SPECIAL GUESTS OUTSIDE THE HALLWAY THAT ARE GOING TO BE COMING IN AND GIVING US QUITE A SHOW. UM SO I'M GONNA I'VE HAD THIS ALRIGHT. ENDOWMENT TRY TO STAY ON ON POINT TONIGHT. I VISITED TRAVIS RANCH, AND I CAME AWAY WITH TWO ITEMS ABOUT MOST IMPORTANT THAT THE UTMOST IMPORTANCE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY. ONE THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL ROOMS AT TRAVIS RANCH ARE LARGE ROOMS THAT ARE DIVIDED INTO SECTIONS. FOR EXAMPLE, ALL 4/4 GRADE CLASSES ARE IN ONE LARGE ROOM. I WAS SHOCKED WHEN I WENT IN THERE , AND I SAW THAT THERE WAS MAKESHIFT BARRIERS THAT DID LITTLE TO SEPARATE EACH CLASSROOM. SO IMAGINE 100 AND 20 STUDENTS IN ONE ROOM LIKE THIS, WITH SOME MAKESHIFT BARRIERS AND HAVING FOUR TEACHERS TEACH ALL TEACH CLASS AT ONE TIME. I FELT LIKE THIS WAS, UH, SOMETHING THAT IF YOU'RE A STUDENT, YOU KNOW, CAN'T FOCUS HAS A D D. IF SOMETHING LIKE THIS IS HAPPENING , I COULDN'T FOCUS AS I WAS STANDING IN THE ROOM BECAUSE I HAD ONE TEACHER HERE WITH ONE CLASS ONE TEACHER THERE. ONE TEACHER THERE AND ONE TEACHER HERE. AND SO I'M TRYING TO FOCUS ON WHAT THIS TEACHER SAYS. THERE'S SOMETHING GOING ON BEHIND ME. AND I WALKED AROUND THE CAMPUS AND THE WHOLE ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS LIKE THAT, AND I THOUGHT WE TALK ABOUT EQUITY AND EDUCATION ALL THE TIME. WHERE IS THE EDUCATIONAL EQUITY? TRAVIS RANCH ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. MM HMM. I ASKED THE STUDENTS, THE STUDENTS COMPLAINED. IT WAS LOUD. IT WAS HARD TO CONCENTRATE THEIR EASILY DISTRACTED AND YOU KNOW WHAT? I WAS LIVING IT WITH THEM. JUST IN THE YOU KNOW THE FIVE MINUTES THAT I WAS IN EACH ROOM, I

[01:30:01]

I REACHED OUT TO LINDA MANION TO SIT DOWN AND HAVE AN HONEST DISCUSSION. SINCE I'VE ACTUALLY NEVER ONCE SPOKEN WITH HER. WE REALLY SHOULD BE WORKING TOGETHER. THE UNION SHOULD AT LEAST BE MAKING CONSISTENT STATEMENTS TO UNION MEMBERS. I'M STILL LOOKING FORWARD TO HEARING BACK FROM LINDA FOR A MEETING DATE. IT'S ALSO BEEN TOLD TO ME THAT THAT A PLE MEMBERS THAT HAVE TEACHERS VIOLATE THE CRT BAN. THE BOARD IS LOOKING TO FIRE THAT IS ABSOLUTELY NOT TRUE . WE HAVE DIRECTED THAT ANY VIOLATION OF THE CRT BAND DISCIPLINE IS HELD IN THE SAME MANNER PER USUAL. I'M EXPECTING THAT HRS. VALIDATING THIS ONE ASKED IT WAS ALSO REVEALED LAST BOARD MEETING THAT P Y EL USD IS IN CONTRACT WITH OVER 25 COLLEGE AND UNIVERSITIES FOR STUDENTS AND COUNSELORS. WEDNESDAY WHEN CAL STATE UNIVERSITY FULLERTON REMOVED THEIR STUDENT TEACHERS.

THE DISTRICT FAILED TO PUBLISH AND SPEAK ABOUT THE 25 EXISTING COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES WHO ARE STILL IN CONTRACT WITH P Y EL USD. I'M ASKING THAT IN THE FUTURE WHEN THE BOARD IS TAKING A LOT OF HEAT, AND THERE'S A LOT OF OUTSIDE NOISE COMING IN THAT THE DISTRICT IS FORTHCOMING AND PROVIDES INFORMATION, UH TO OUTSIDE SOURCES, MEDIA AND TO OUR COMMUNITY, SOMETHING LIKE THIS. KNOWING THAT CAL STATE FULLERTON ONE COLLEGE PULLS OUT BECAUSE OF A CRITICAL RACE THEORY BAN, BUT WE HAVE 25 ADDITIONAL UNIVERSITIES THAT HAVE REMAINED IN CONTRACT WITH US IS A HUGE STATEMENT. I WOULD HAVE BEEN A HUGE STATEMENT AT THE TIME. STILL IS A HUGE STATEMENT. MANY TEACHERS HAVE REACHED OUT TO ME FROM MULTIPLE SITES ABOUT OUR A R READING PROGRAM. UM THEY HAVE BEEN TOLD BY THE DISTRICT THAT THE BOARD REMOVED THIS PROGRAM. I'M HERE TO TELL YOU. I'VE INQUIRED ABOUT THIS AND THAT THE BOARD DID NOT REMOVE THIS PROGRAM. OUR ED SERVICES REMOVED THE PROGRAM. I ATTEMPTED TO PUT THIS BACK ONTO OUR AGENDAS AND SO MANY TEACHERS THROUGHOUT OUR DISTRICT HAVE ASKED THAT THIS PROGRAM RETURNED BECAUSE THEY BELIEVE THAT IT REALLY HELPED THEIR STUDENTS LEARN HOW TO READ. AND SO I'M REQUESTING THAT OUR AIR PROGRAM ONCE AGAIN WE PLACED ON THE MARCH AGENDA BECAUSE I BELIEVE TEACHERS THINK THIS IS A VALUABLE TOOL FOR STUDENTS WHEN IT COMES TO READING. EVEN IF EVERY SCHOOL DOESN'T WANT TO UTILIZE THIS PROGRAM, THAT'S FINE. BUT I THINK WE SHOULD GIVE TEACHERS ACCESS TO THIS PROGRAM BECAUSE RIGHT NOW OUR READING ARE READING SCORES ARE NOT ARE NOT HIGH, AND IF A TEACHER THINKS THAT THIS WILL HELP THEIR KIDS, THEN WE SHOULD GIVE THEM EVERY TOOL AVAILABLE POSSIBLE. I DON'T THINK WE SHOULD HAVE A ONE SIZE FITS ALL APPROACH IN OUR DISTRICT. TRUSTEE FRAZIER HIT ON THE NEW LITERARY PROCESS THAT WAS ENACTED. I KIND OF AGREED THE SAME WAY. I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW

[01:35:05]

ALSO I AM ALSO GOING TO BRING FORTH AN IDEA TO BEGIN SERVING OUR COMMUNITY AND STUDENTS IN A NEW WAY. RIGHT NOW. OUR STUDENTS HAVE ACCESS TO GAIN COLLEGE CREDITS FROM FULLERTON COLLEGE, BUT I'M SUGGESTING IS THAT WE TAKE THIS TO A HIGHER LEVEL. I SUGGEST THAT WE GO A STEP FURTHER AND IMPLEMENTED EARLY MIDDLE COLLEGE, THE FIRST MIDDLE COLLEGE OPENED IN 1974 LAGUARDIA COMMUNITY COLLEGE IN NEW YORK, WITH A STRONG BELIEF THAT STUDENTS FROM SOCIALLY ECONOMICALLY DISADVANTAGED BACKGROUNDS. STUDENTS WHO ARE TRADITIONALLY HIGH SCHOOL DROPOUTS COULD SUCCEED IF PROVIDED A UNIT. HE OR OPPORTUNITY TO PURSUE COLLEGE AND HIGH SCHOOL IN A SMALL, NURTURING ENVIRONMENT THAT WAS ON A COMMUNITY COLLEGE CAMPUS.

THE RESULT OF THE PROGRAM WAS A DROPOUT RATE DECREASED ATTENDANCE IN PASSING COURSE RATES INCREASED GRADUATE GRADUATION RATES EXCEEDED 80% IN COLLEGE RATES OR COLLEGE ATTENDANCE RATES SOARED TO MORE THAN 85. THERE ARE SEVERAL EARLY AND MIDDLE COLLEGES IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA TO USD MIDDLE COLLEGE HIGH SCHOOL AT SOUTHWEST COLLEGE AND HARBOR TEACHER PREPARATION ACADEMY AT LA HARPER COLLEGE. THESE SCHOOLS ARE TRADITIONALLY SMALL. SERVING BETWEEN 150 TO 500 STUDENTS AND PRIMARILY LOCATED ON OR NEAR COMMUNITY COLLEGE CAMPUS WITH A FORMAL PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN A K 12 DISTRICT AND A COMMUNITY COLLEGE. THE GOAL FOR A MIDDLE EARLY COLLEGE HIGH SCHOOL IS FOR STUDENTS TO GRADUATE WITH 30 TO 60 COLLEGE TRANSFERABLE UNITS OR A DEGREE ALONG WITH A HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA. TARGET AUDIENCES CAN INCLUDE STUDENTS, WHO ARE FIRST IN FAMILY TO ATTEND COLLEGE STUDENTS OF ETHNICITY WHO ARE UNDERREPRESENTED FOUR YEARS INSTITUTIONS. AND SOCIAL ECONOMICALLY DISADVANTAGED IN EARLY MIDDLE COLLEGE, PROVIDES NUMEROUS BENEFITS TO DISTRICTS, STUDENTS, PARENTS AND THE COMMUNITY. WE CANNOT CONTINUE TO ONLY TALK ABOUT THE IDEAS OF HOW TO SERVE OUR COMMUNITY. WE NEED TO START TAKING ACTION. THIS WOULD BE A GAME CHANGER FOR MANY STUDENTS IN OUR DISTRICT AND IMAGINE THE LIVES THAT WE CAN CHANGE. I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO TALKING WITH FULLERTON COLLEGE. I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO TALKING TO COMPTON COMMUNITY COLLEGE. I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO TALKING TO OTHER VARIOUS SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES TO SEE HOW WE CAN GET THIS PROGRAM IN ACTION. AND IF WE CAN BE A GAME CHANGER HERE IN ORANGE COUNTY OKAY. AND FINALLY , I WOULD LIKE TO INTRODUCE THE NONPROFIT READ MMA. ALSO CALLED MARIACHI KIDS. WELL, WE CONTINUE TO TALK ABOUT COMMUNITY AND EXPLORING DIFFERENT CULTURES. I BELIEVE THE POSSIBLE ADDITION OF THIS GROUP INTO OUR SCHOOLS CAN BE INVALUABLE TO OUR COMMUNITY.

THIS IS ANOTHER EXAMPLE ABOUT HOW WE START TALKING AND ACTUALLY START DOING THE WORK IS CURRENTLY SERVING IN THE ANAHEIM SCHOOL DISTRICT. I'VE ASKED THEM TO COME OUT TONIGHT AND GIVE US A SMALL TASTE OF WHAT THEY CAN OFFER OUR SCHOOL DISTRICT EVEN IF WE DO NOT USE THEM IN OUR SCHOOLS, OR WE DO NOT CONTRACT WITH THEM. I HOPE THAT OUR PARENTS AND OUR COMMUNITY KNOW THAT THEY ARE LOCATED IN ANAHEIM, AND ANY STUDENT CAN JOIN AND TAKE LESSONS. MARIACHI PROGRAMS HAVE STARTED IN SEVERAL LOCAL COLLEGES. AND I BELIEVE THE ADDITION OF MARIACHI INTO OUR SCHOOLS WILL ONLY BROADEN OUR STUDENTS HORIZONS. SO ONCE AGAIN, I PRESENT READ THEM UP OR MARIACHI KIDS.

[01:40:29]

GOOD. THANK YOU, LADY LAWYER. MM HMM.

YES.

MM HMM. GOOD. OLIVER HAVE A QUICK QUESTION. UM IF YOU WERE TO COME INTO OUR SCHOOLS LIKE YOU'VE GONE INTO ANAHEIM, WHAT WOULD THAT LOOK LIKE? I UNDERSTAND THAT THERE'S NOT MUCH AT THE ELEMENTARY LEVEL OR THERE IS, BUT YOU'RE REALLY FOR JUNIOR HIGH AND HIGH SCHOOL IS WHERE YOU GUYS EXCEL. INSTRUCTORS. THE CARS AND THE VIRUS. MHM. THE TWO ARE SECTION I WOULD LIKE TOGETHER AGAIN. AWESOME. AND SO WHAT IS YOUR WEBSITE? SO UM, IF OUR DISTRICT DOESN'T DECIDE TO GO WITH YOU, BUT AT LEAST OUR FAMILIES AT HOME WOULD KNOW IF THEY'RE INTERESTED IN MARIACHI.

THEY KNOW WHERE TO FIND YOU. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. RIGHT? THANK YOU SO MUCH. YEP THAT'S IT. THANK YOU. WOW, THAT WAS GREAT. ALL RIGHT. OKAY, SO, UM, THIS LEADS US TO PUBLIC COMMENT.

[PUBLIC COMMENT]

[01:45:07]

PARENTS ARE NATURALLY GOING TO SEEK WHAT'S BEST FOR THEIR OWN FAMILY, LIFE AND CHILDREN. THERE ARE SO MANY DIFFERENT OPINIONS ABOUT WHEN AND HOW KIDS SHOULD BE SPENDING THEIR SUMMER VACATION BECAUSE OF DIFFERENT FAMILY CULTURES IN PARENTING STYLES. SO IT SEEMS THAT OUR DISTRICT WOULD RATHER NOT STIR THE POT AT ALL AND HAS BEEN PARALYZED BY INDECISION. BECAUSE THERE ARE TOO MANY WHO ARE LIKE, DON'T TOUCH MY VACATION. BUT I WANT TO REMIND THE BOARD AND OUR LEADERS THAT YOUR JOB IS TO MAKE DECISIONS IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF EDUCATION, ATHLETICS AND THAT WHICH INVOLVES THE SURROUNDING COMMUNITY. ALL THAT FALLS WITHIN THE SCOPE OF P Y EL STICK TO THE MISSION AND VISION OF THE P L. U S T ADVANTAGE PLAN. THAT IS YOUR ROADMAP. IT'S NOT YOUR MAIN CONCERN THAT KIDS MIGHT BE KEPT. FROM MORE WARM DAYS AT THE BEACH OR FAMILY. VACATION PLANS ARE INCONVENIENCED. YOUR CONCERN SHOULD BE TO QUOTE UNQUOTE ENSURE THAT OUR STUDENTS EXPERIENCED THE ADVANTAGE OF AN OUTSTANDING EDUCATION. WELL, OUR LATE START HAS BECOME A DISADVANTAGE. LET'S FOCUS ON THE EDUCATIONAL ADVANTAGES OF STARTING SCHOOL IN MID AUGUST NUMBER ONE R A. P I. B STUDENTS NEED THE TWO EXTRA WEEKS BEFORE EXAMS. THE TEACHERS ARE AMAZING , AND STUDENTS ARE HARDWORKING. SO DESPITE THE FAST PACE, OR THE FACT THAT THEY ARE LEARNING MATERIAL ALL THE WAY UP TO EXAM DAY, THEY ARE STILL ABLE TO PULL OFF RECORD PASSING RATES AND I BE DIPLOMAS AWARDED. BUT DON'T BE DECEIVED. STUDENTS FEEL INCREDIBLE PRESSURE. THE DISTRICT SHOULD SUPPORT THEM BY ALLEVIATING SOME OF THIS PRESSURE AND GIVING THEM MORE TIME. IT'S THE LEAST YOU CAN DO FOR THESE HIGH ACHIEVING STUDENTS WHO BOOST THE DISTRICT'S REPUTATION AND MAKE IT ATTRACTIVE. MY FRIEND JANET CHAIN WILL CONTINUE. NUMBER TWO.

AN EARLIER START DAY MEANS LESS WASTED INSTRUCTIONAL TIME. ONE P Y O MOM TOLD ME EVERYONE KNOWS THE FIRST WEEK OF SCHOOL IS IN REAL SCHOOL. HOW CAN WE CONSTRUCTION BEGAN WHEN THE FIRST THREE DAYS OF SCHOOL ARE INTERRUPTED BY A FOUR DAY LABOR DAY WEEKEND? ALSO, AFTER A P AND ID EXAMS ARE DONE. THERE ARE STILL 4 TO 6 WEEKS OF SCHOOL LEFT, WHICH ARE OFTEN FILLED UP WITH WATCHING VIDEOS AND MAYBE DOING FUN PROJECTS BUT ARE LESS BENEFICIAL THAN A CHANCE TO FOCUS ON THE MATERIAL FOR THE EXAMS. NUMBER THREE. SHIFTING OUR SCHOOL CALENDAR WOULD MEAN THAT OUR STUDENTS HAVE MORE OPPORTUNITIES TO TAKE SUMMER CLASSES AT FULLERTON COLLEGE AND OTHER COMMUNITY COLLEGES LAST YEAR SOMEWHERE CLASSES ARE. FULTON BEGAN ON JUNE 6TH SANTIAGO CANYON COLLEGE STARTS ON JUNE 12TH. AS THE COST OF COLLEGES SWORD COMMUNITY COLLEGE HAS BECOME AN INCREASINGLY POPULAR CHOICE FOR MANY STUDENTS , AND THEY SHOULD HAVE THE CHOICE TO BE ABLE TO ENROLL FOR THE SUMMER. NUMBER FOUR. IT MAKES SENSE TO END THE SEMESTER BEFORE WINTER BREAK AND LET THE STUDENTS TAKE THEIR FINALS WITH THE MATERIAL STILL FRESH IN THEIR MINDS. THANK YOU THIS WAY. THEY CAN ALSO REALLY ENJOY THEIR WINTER BREAK. NEXT REGARDING ATHLETICS AND EARLIER START WORKS BETTER FOR SPORTS, TOO, ESPECIALLY FOOTBALL SCHOOLS ARE TWO SEASON GAMES BEFORE SCHOOL EVEN STARTED LINING UP OUR SCHEDULE WITH OTHER SCHOOLS IN AN INTERDISTRICT LEAKS MAKE THE MOST MAKES THE MOST SENSE WHEN IT COMES TO COMPETITION AND FAIRNESS. AND FINALLY, WHEN SHE MOVED THE SCHOOL YEAR EARLIER TO BE A BETTER COMMUNITY PARTNER.

ALL FAMILIES HAVE CLOSE TIES TO BREAK A FOOT AND I'M HILLS IN ORANGE BY HAVING A DISTINCT SCHOOL CALENDAR. WE MAKE IT DIFFICULT FOR COMMUNITY GROUPS OF STUDENTS FROM DIFFERENT DISTRICTS SUCH AS THE SCOUTS, CHURCH GROUPS, CLUBS, SPORTS AND OTHERS. IN CONCLUSION. I ENCOURAGE YOU THE BOARD TO MAINTAIN YOUR FOCUS ON MAKING DECISIONS THAT PRIORITIZED STUDENTS AND ALL THAT, AND COMPASS IS THEIR EDUCATION. PLEASE IMPLEMENT THIS CHANGE, BEGINNING WITH THE 24 25 SCHOOL YEAR TO BETTER EQUIP STUDENTS TO SUCCEED IN SCHOOL AND SCHOOL RELATED ACTIVITIES. IT WILL TAKE ONE PAINFUL SUMMER, BUT EVERY OTHER DISTRICT HAS DONE IT AND SURVIVED. THE DECISION TO START SCORE EARLIER WILL GIVE PEOPLE WHILE STUDENTS THE ADVANTAGE.

THANK YOU. GOING THROUGH MY CHILDREN'S BRAINS THAT I AFTER I PICKED THEM UP AFTER SCHOOL IS LIKE GOING THROUGH THEIR BACKPACKS. SURE THERE ARE A FEW USEFUL THINGS LIKE PENCILS, PENS , NOTEBOOKS AND OCCASIONAL RELEVANT HANDOUT. BUT THEN THERE IS NONSENSE AND TRASH THAT HAS NO BUSINESS BEING IN THE BACKPACK AND DEFINITELY NOT IN THEIR BRAIN. AS YOU KNOW, I HAVE

IT'S BEEN THERE FOR A LONG TIME, PROBABLY 40 YEARS. IT'S A COURTESY THAT WAS ALWAYS EXTENDED TO THE ASSOCIATION. SO I WAS KIND OF JUST MADE THIS WEEK WHEN I WAS NOTIFIED THAT THE SOME MEMBERS OF THE BOARD NO LONGER WANTED THAT TABLE THERE AND IT KIND OF CAUGHT ME OFF GUARD A LITTLE BIT AND I REALLY DON'T CARE. I DIDN'T RUN FOR PRESIDENT TO SIT AT THE TABLE. I RAN FOR PRESIDENT TO SERVE AND I'M HERE TO SERVE IT AND I CAN SERVE FROM ANY SEAT IN THE ROOM AND ANY PLACE IN THE DISTRICT AND THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS TO ME IS THAT I HAVE PEOPLE SITTING WITH ME, SO MY PEOPLE ARE HERE TONIGHT. THANK YOU FOR COMING. I AM HERE TO SURF. I AM HERE TO COLLABORATE. AND THAT'S WHO WE ARE. THANK YOU. GOOD EVENING, EVERYBODY. UM I'M SARAH PHILLIPS, THE LIBRARY IN YORBA LINDA HIGH SCHOOL. I'M HERE TONIGHT TO THANK THE DISTRICT FOR THE CONTINUING EFFORTS WITH OUR MONTHLY CULTURAL CELEBRATIONS. UH FEBRUARY IS BLACK HISTORY MONTH. BELINDA HIGH SCHOOL LIBRARY HAS A BOOK AND POSTER DISPLAY UP AND THERE'S PICTURES ON FACEBOOK RIGHT NOW FOR THAT ON THE YORK LINDA HIGH SCHOOL PAGE. IT'S ALSO A VIRTUAL DISPLAY WITH ONLINE RESOURCES FOR STUDENTS TO EXPAND THEIR KNOWLEDGE. OF THIS PART OF AMERICAN HISTORY. UM SO WITH DIVERSITY IN MIND, FREE CHOICE OF DIVERSE BOOKS HELPS ALL OF OUR STUDENTS. BOOKS CAN BE MIRRORS, WINDOWS AND SLIDING GLASS DOORS. THIS IDEA WAS DEVELOPED BY EDUCATION SCHOLAR ROUTINE. SIMS BISHOP. UM MIRROR BOOKS LET STUDENTS SEE CHARACTERS LIKE THEMSELVES WHO ARE VALUED IN THE WORLD, AND THEY FEEL A SENSE OF BELONGING.

WINDOW BOOKS. HELP US DEVELOP UNDERSTANDINGS ABOUT THE WIDER WORLD. STUDENTS NEED TO LEARN ABOUT HOW OTHER PEOPLE CONDUCT THEMSELVES IN THE WORLD IN ORDER TO UNDERSTAND HOW THEY MIGHT FIT IN IT. AND THEN SLIDING DOOR SLIDING DOOR BOOKS FURTHER EXPAND ON THE CONCEPT OF WINDOWS INSTEAD OF JUST VIEWING ANOTHER PERSON'S CULTURE OR EXPERIENCE. BLAST DOORS ALLOW READERS TO WALK INTO A STORE AND BECOME PART OF THE WORLD. THE GOAL HERE IS TO ENCOURAGE REFLECTION AND ACTION SLIDING DOORS RESULT IN A READERS, UM, CHANGE OR EXPANSION OF THEIR PERSPECTIVE. I HOPE EVERYONE HAS BEEN READING SOME GOOD AND DIVERSE BOOKS SO FAR THIS YEAR. HELLO MY NAME IS RYAN. SO TERRORISTS. MY SPELLING IS GOOD. MY WRITING NOT SO MUCH. I DIDN'T GROW UP IN THE SCHOOL DISTRICT. WHAT CAN I SAY? AH! I HAD A LOT OF THINGS I WANTED TO SAY SOME OF THEM WERE NICER.

SOME OF THEM WEREN'T SOME OF THEM HAVE BEEN SOMEWHAT ADDRESSED. AH BUT THE OVERLYING THEME I GUESS THAT I WANT TO SAY IS THAT INTIMIDATION BULLYING? SHOULD NO MORE BE ACCEPTED IN THIS ROOM. THAN IN ANY OF OUR CLASSROOMS OR SCHOOLS. BOTH SIDES OF THIS NEED TO REMEMBER THAT WE ALL CARE ABOUT THE CHILDREN. OTHERWISE NONE OF US WOULD BE HERE. AT EIGHT O'CLOCK ON A TUESDAY NIGHT. COMING IN FROM WHEREVER YOU CAME IN FROM DOWNTOWN L A FOR ME, WHICH IS WHY I'M DRESSED LIKE THIS. SO UH , YOU KNOW THE DEFYING THE SNARKY NOUS WHEN YOU DON'T AGREE WITH WHAT SOMEBODY ELSE SAID, I MEAN TO ME. THAT JUST BREEDS THAT TYPE OF I WANT TO INTIMIDATE YOU INTO NOT SPEAKING AND TO NOT SAYING WHAT'S ON YOUR MIND AND IT SHOULDN'T BE ACCEPTABLE. AND WHICHEVER SIDE YOU'RE ON. IF IT'S THE PERSON BEHIND YOU DOING IT, AND YOU KNOW THAT THEY'RE NORMALLY IN AGREEMENT WITH YOU. IT'S OKAY TO TURN AROUND AND SAY TO THEM LIKE HEY, LET THEM HAVE THEIR SPEECH . I'M NOT GOING TO BELIEVE EVERY WORD THAT COMES OUT OF EVERY PERSON'S MOUTH IN HERE. I'M JUST NOT WHEN THEY STAND UP HERE AND TELL ME WHAT THEIR KIDS HEARD. I DON'T NECESSARILY BELIEVE IT, BUT BUT I MIGHT BELIEVE THAT THERE'S A TEACHER TO SUFFERING SOME BURNOUT. LASTLY BEFORE I RUN OUT OF TIME, I BELIEVE THE A R READING PROGRAM IS PLAYED PAID FOR BY THE PITA IS OF OUR SCHOOLS, SO I'M NOT SURE WHO ELSE TO BLAME BECAUSE I KNOW MY P T A WOULD GLADLY PAY FOR IT AGAIN. THANK YOU, RYAN. SO TERRACE. HI I'M SHANI MURRAY.

[02:00:04]

THE WORST OF WHITE FOLKS WANTED OUR MAMAS AND GRAMMAS TO WORK THEMSELVES SICK FOR A TINY SLIVER OF AN AMERICAN PIE IT NEEDED TO BELIEVE IT HAD MADE FROM SCRATCH. IT WAS ALL AT ONCE CRAZY MAKING AND QUICK TO VIOLENTLY DISCIPLINE US FOR ACTING CRAZY. IT HAD AN INSATIABLE APPETITE FOR VIRTUOSO BLACK PERFORMANCE AND ROUTINE BLACK SUFFERING. THE WORST OF WHITE FOLKS REALLY BELIEVED THAT THE HEIGHT OF BLACK AND BROWN ASPIRATION SHOULD BE EMULATION OF ITS MEDIOCRE SELF. THE WORST OF WHITE FOLKS INHERENTLY DISPROPORTIONATE, INHERITED DISPROPORTIONATE ACCESS TO QUALITY HEALTHCARE. FOOD WEALTH , FAIR TRIALS, FAIR SENTENCING, COLLEGE ADMITTANCE, COLLEGE GRADUATIONS, PROMOTIONS AND SECOND CHANCES, YET STILL TERRORIZED AND SHAMED OTHER AMERICANS WHO LACKED ADEQUATE ACCESS TO HEALTHY CHOICES AT ALL. WHITE AMERICANS WERE WHOLLY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE WORST OF WHITE FOLKS, THOUGH THEY WOULD DO ALL THEY COULD TO MAKE SURE IT NEVER WHOLLY DEFINED THEM. THANK YOU. PAM. SORRY, BRIA. ALL RIGHT. I'VE HOMESCHOOLED ONE OF MY KIDS FOR FIVE YEARS BECAUSE HE HAD A MISERABLE EXPERIENCE AT BRYANT RANCH ELEMENTARY. LAST FALL, HE DECIDED TO GIVE PUBLIC SCHOOL ANOTHER TRY. I ASKED THE HIGH SCHOOL COUNSELOR ABOUT HOW HE COULD GET CREDITS FOR HIS PRIOR WORK, SHE SAID. THERE WAS NO PATH SINCE MY HOME SCHOOL WASN'T ACCREDITED. THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DOESN'T REQUIRE A HOME SCHOOL PRIVATE SCHOOL TO BE ACCREDITED. BUT IF I HAD FURTHER QUESTIONS REACH OUT TO ED SERVICES, WHICH I DID, AND I GOT THE SAME NO. FROM LINDA ADAMSON. SHE SAID. THAT WAS P Y EL POLICY . I DIDN'T PUSH IT ANY FURTHER BECAUSE I WASN'T SURE IF MY KIDS WOULD STAY, BUT HE LOVES ALL HIS TEACHERS. HE'S DONE WELL, AND HE'S RECEIVED ALL A'S ON HIS FIRST REPORT CARD. SO ABOUT TWO WEEKS AGO, I DECIDED TO ASK FOR THAT POLICY LINDA ADAMSON MENTIONED BECAUSE IT APPEARS MY KIDS WANT TO STAY ON. TURNS OUT THERE'S NO POLICY. SHE MADE IT UP. SHE MADE IT UP. SO I'M LEFT WONDERING WHAT KIND OF PEOPLE WORK AT THE SCHOOL DISTRICT. DO YOU EVEN KNOW YOUR OWN JOB? HOW CAN AN EMPLOYEE FABRICATE SOMETHING SO SUBSTANTIAL? DID I GET DISPARATE TREATMENT FOR SOME REASON? WHY DO WE HAVE EMPLOYEES THAT DO NOTHING BUT FRUSTRATE AND IRRITATE RATHER THAN ASSIST? BUT I BLAME THE OLD BOARD, CURRENT BOARD AND THE SUPERINTENDENT. NO SUPERVISION.

NO REAL LEADERSHIP. NO ACCOUNTABILITY. THIS IS THE SAME LINDA ADDISON THAT IT WAS UP HERE TALKING LAST FALL ABOUT HOW SHE WILL GIVE A VENDOR THE RECENTLY PASSED BOARD POLICIES.

I ASKED FOR A COPY OF THAT PLAYWORKS CONTRACT. NOTHING WAS ATTACHED, BUT DAVID GIORDANO GOES AHEAD AND SIGNS IT. NO PROBLEM. NO ONE SEEMS TO CARE ABOUT ABIDING BY ANY BOARD WISHES OR POLICIES. DISTRICT STAFF IS ALSO UNAWARE THAT PRIVATE SCHOOLS IN THE STATE ARE

[02:05:02]

MY NAME IS PREAH AND I'VE HAD CHILDREN IN THE DISTRICT FOR OVER A DECADE IN COUNTING.

FEBRUARY IS BLACK HISTORY MONTH AS WE'VE BEEN DISCUSSING, AND SO I THOUGHT I WOULD START TONIGHT WITH A QUOTE FROM ONE OF MY FAVORITE AMERICAN SCHOLARS. JAMES BALDWIN. YOU THINK YOUR PAIN AND YOUR HEARTBREAK ARE UNPRECEDENTED IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD, BUT THEN YOU READ IT WAS BOOKS THAT TAUGHT ME THAT THE THINGS THAT TORMENTED ME MOST WERE THE VERY THINGS THAT CONNECTED ME WITH ALL PEOPLE WHO ARE ALIVE WHO HAD EVER BEEN ALIVE. THERE'S SOMETHING MAGICAL ABOUT SEEING YOURSELF REFLECTED IN A STORY SEEING YOUR FAMILY, YOUR CULTURE, YOUR VALUES, EVEN WHEN THOSE ARE DIFFERENT FROM THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU, OR MAYBE MOSTLY WHEN THAT'S THE CASE. SO WHAT HAPPENS WHEN BOOKS AND STORIES ARE CENSORED? AND DENIED TO OUR YOUNG PEOPLE EXACTLY AT THE TIME THAT THEY ARE DEVELOPING THEIR SENSE OF WHO THEY ARE. ONE EFFECT OF THE CRT BAN AND THIS NEW LITERATURE REVIEW PROCESS. WE AGREE I ALSO DON'T LIKE IT AND THE REMOVAL OF BOOKS FROM OUR SCHOOL LIBRARIES. IS THAT MANY OF OUR KIDS WILL NEVER REALIZED THAT THEY ARE NOT ALONE IN THIS WORLD, AND THERE ARE SO MANY OTHER PEOPLE WHO ARE STRUGGLING AND ARE BEING CHALLENGED THE SAME WAY AS THEM AND IT ROBS THEM OF THEIR HUMANITY. SO HERE ARE THANK YOU . HERE ARE SOME OF THE BOOKS THAT HAVE SHAPED ME THE MOST, AND ALL OF THEM WOULD BE BANNED FROM BEING TAUGHT AT EL USD IN HIGH SCHOOL. A SMALL PLACE BY JAMAICA KINCAID BECAUSE IT ADDRESSES SYSTEMIC RACISM. OCTAVIA BUTLER DAWN BECAUSE IT ADDRESSED THIS SYSTEMIC RACISM AND NON HETERONORMATIVE GENDER AND SEXUALITY. WHITE TEETH BY ZADIE SMITH ADDRESS THE SYSTEMIC RACISM AND COLONIALISM TONY MORRIS AND SULA. YOU'VE GOT TO READ THIS ONE, BUT IT ADDRESSES SYSTEMIC RACISM. SAMMY AUDREY LORDE. SHE'S MY HERO ADDRESSES, NON HETERONORMATIVE SEXUALITY.

THANK YOU. GOOD EVENING. I'M RAQUEL FLEXNER, PARENT AND EDUCATOR. UM TONIGHT ON THE AGENDA, THE BOARD WILL DISCUSS ENHANCING FOCUS AREA FOR SAFE AND RESPECTFUL SCHOOLS. DURING THIS DISCUSSION . I HOPE TRUSTEES SHARE THEIR PERSPECTIVE BASED ON THEIR EXPERIENCE WITH THEIR OWN CHILDREN IN THE DISTRICT, BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, THEIR SCHOOL SITE VISITS AND FOR CLARITY. I DON'T MEAN ONLY WHAT YOU HEAR FROM PARENTS AT A SCHOOL PLAY OR SPORTS EVENT. I MEAN WHAT YOU'VE GATHERED FROM OBSERVING IN CLASS INSTRUCTION. THE CONVERSATIONS YOU HAD WITH A REPRESENTATIVE GROUP OF TEACHERS YOU MET ON CAMPUS, NOT YOUR CHERRY PICKED GROUP OF MANY TEACHERS YOU REFER TO EVERY MONTH AND THE STUDENTS YOU SPEAK WITH ON CAMPUS WHO AREN'T YOUR OWN AND DON'T LOOK LIKE YOU. I GUARANTEE YOU JUST ONE CONVERSATION WITH THE TRAVIS RANCH SBE PRESIDENT, WHICH I HOPE DURING YOUR VISIT. YOU SPOKE WITH AH WOULD HELP YOU GAIN AN UNDERSTANDING OF THE KINDS OF HATE SPEECH HEARD ON CAMPUS EVERY SINGLE DAY.

ADDITIONALLY, I'M NOT INTERESTED IN HOW YOU WILL PUNISH STUDENTS. I WANT TO KNOW HOW YOU WILL EDUCATE THEM. I HAVE HEARD PERSONALLY FROM ADMIN THAT THEY FEEL THEIR HANDS ARE TIED REGARDING DISCUSSIONS INVOLVING RACISM, AS WELL AS THE HISTORY AND TRUE IMPLICATIONS OF THE WORDS STUDENTS ARE USING. WE KNOW THE STUDENTS DON'T UNDERSTAND THE WORDS THEY'RE USING, WHICH IS WHY THEY'RE USING THEM. SO WE NEED TO TEACH THEM. WHY IS IT HATE SPEECH? WHERE IS THE HISTORY? WHY IS THIS WRONG? IT'S NOT JUST BECAUSE IT'S UNKIND. THERE'S MORE TO IT THAN THAT. AND DOES OUR CRT BAND KEEP US FROM GIVING OUR STUDENTS THAT EDUCATION, WHICH IS AN EDUCATION, WHICH WILL SERVE THEM BEYOND JUST BEING AN R P O L USD SCHOOLS, IT WILL SERVE THEM IN COLLEGE. IT WILL SERVE THEM IN THEIR JOBS IN THIS INCREASINGLY DIVERSE WORLD . WE LIVE THANK YOU. OKAY WE HAVE, UH, ONE MORE SPEAKER STEPH. BACHELOR.

[02:10:22]

[GENERAL FUNCTIONS]

ALL SECOND. OKAY MOTION PRESENTED. MS BLADES AND SECONDED BY MR FRASER. OKAY. DR MATTHEWS, WOULD YOU INTRODUCE THIS ITEM? YES, I WILL. THIS IS OUR SECOND TIME FOR YOU TO SEE HIS POLICY LIKE TO INTRODUCE AH, DIRECTOR JEREMY POWELL TO INTRODUCE THE ITEM. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU. GOOD EVENING, PRESIDENT. YOUNG BLACK MEMBERS OF THE BOARD SUPERINTENDENT MATTHEWS AND EXECUTIVE CABINET INCLUDED ON THE AGENDA TONIGHT IS THE SECOND READING OF PURPORTED BOAT BOARD POLICY 3515 SECURITY CAMERAS BASED ON DIRECTION RECEIVED FROM THE BOARD AT THE JANUARY MEETING. REFERENCES TO RELATED BOARD POLICIES HAVE BEEN ADDED AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS POLICY. ADDITIONALLY A STATEMENT HAS BEEN ADDED TO THE SUPERINTENDENT OR DESIGNEE WILL MAINTAIN A LIST OF STAFF AUTHORIZED TO ACCESS THE SECURITY CAMERAS. VIDEO RECORDINGS AND IMAGES. YOU WILL NOT. THE STAFF DID NOT MAKE ANY CHANGES TO THE STATEMENT THAT LIVE MONITORING MAKER, WHICH WAS PART OF THE ORIGINAL RECOMMENDED GAMUT. LANGUAGE AS YOU KNOW, THE DISTRICT IS NOT CURRENTLY STAFFED OR EQUIPPED TO PROVIDE CONTINUOUS LIVE MONITORING.

HOWEVER, THE LANGUAGE HAS BEEN RETAINED TO ALLOW FOR FUTURE CONSIDERATION. AWESOME. ANY QUESTIONS? HI. HAVE JUST A COMMENT. I DIDN'T KNOW A LOT ABOUT SECURITY FOOTAGE DON'T HAVE MY UM, EXPERTISE IN THAT, SO I DID A LOT OF READING SINCE THE LAST MEETING. AND UM, UM I

[02:15:03]

OKAY? I'LL 2ND 2ND. EXCELLENT. DR MATTHEWS, IF YOU WOULD, YES. THANK YOU. GOOD EVENING AGAIN.

PRESIDENT YOUNGBLOOD, TRUSTEES AND EXECUTIVE CABINET MEMBERS. ON THE AGENDA TONIGHT IS A FIRST READING OF A NEW POLICY BOARD POLICY. 12 30 SCHOOL CONDUCTOR ORGANIZATIONS, YOU KNOW THAT THE BOARD REVIEWS UPDATES AND OR DEVELOPS POLITICS, WHICH WE'RE DOING RIGHT NOW TO ENSURE COMPLIANCE WITH STATE LAW OR ESTABLISHED PROCEDURES REGARDING THE OPERATION TO THE DISTRICT.

BACK IN THE FALL. REMEMBER HEARING OUR PUBLIC COMMENTS SECTION COMMUNITY MEMBERS BEING CONCERNED ABOUT THE AMOUNT OF MONEY BEING REQUESTED BY BOOST TRUCE FOR THEIR SPORTS TEAMS? AS I HEARD THOSE CONCERNS, WE BEGAN WORKING WITH STAFF TO EXAMINE OUR PROCESSES FOR WORKING WITH BOOSTER CLUBS. THIS NEW POLICY IS FOR THE PURPOSE OF ESTABLISHING GUIDELINES OR PARENT ORGANIZATIONS, SUCH AS THE BOOSTER CLUBS THAT ARE SO HELPFUL AND SUPPORTING EXTRACURRICULAR PROGRAMS THROUGHOUT THE DISTRICT. THIS POLICY. THE FOUNDATION, WHICH WAS DEVELOPED BY CSB A AND GAMUT HAS BEEN AUGMENTED TO REFLECT THE BEST PRACTICES AND OTHER SCHOOL DISTRICTS IF APPROVED FOR A FIRST READING OR BRING HIS POLICY BACK AND OUR APRIL MEETING OVER THE NEXT TWO MONTHS , WE WILL SOLICIT INPUT AND FEEDBACK FROM OUR STATE PRINCIPLES. ATHLETIC DIRECTORS DIRECTORS. OUR ARTS GROUPS, BOOSTER CLUBS AND OTHERS ON HOW WE PLAN TO IMPLEMENT THIS NEW POLICY. IT'S OUR BELIEF THAT THIS WILL ALIGN AND CENTRALIZED MANY OF OUR PROCESSES. THEY'RE ALREADY IN PLACE. IT WILL INCREASE TRANSPARENCY AND ACCOUNTABILITY IN THE PROCESS LIKE TO GIVE YOU A BRIEF OVERVIEW OF THE POLICY BECAUSE IT IS NEW, AND SO AS YOU TURN TO THE POLICY ITSELF. UM JUST SOME HIGHLIGHTS OF WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR A BOOSTER CLUBS IS SPECIFICS ABOUT WHAT THEY'RE DOING WITH THEIR PROGRAMS THAT YEAR AND THE FUNDS THEY ARE ATTEMPTING TO RAISE. SO IF YOU LOOK DOWN AT THE BOTTOM, WHERE IT BEGINS THE NUMBER THAT THE NUMERICAL PART OF IT THE ONE THROUGH FIVE ON PAGE ONE, JUST LOOKING FOR BASIC INFORMATION. WHAT THEY'RE WHAT THEY'RE THE NAME OF IT IS. WHAT THEIR BYLAWS ARE WHO THE OFFICERS ARE AND THEN SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES. WHAT DO YOU HOW ARE YOU DOING FUNDRAISING FOR THAT YEAR? UM WHAT IF YOU GET DONATIONS FROM YOUR FAMILIES? WHAT ARE YOU PLANNING TO USE THOSE DONATIONS FOR? IT'S VERY IMPORTANT THAT THE LETTER THAT GOES OUT IS A TRUE REQUEST FOR DONATIONS AND NOT A DEMAND FOR FEES. IF WE WANT TO SEE A COPY THAT DEMAND RIGHT THAT DONATION LETTER BEFORE IT GOES OUT. WHEN YOU RAISE THOSE FUNDS. WHAT ARE THE EXPENSES PLAN? WE I KNOW THAT AGAIN ARE BOOSTER CLUBS DO GREAT THINGS FOR OUR FOR OUR ORGANIZATIONS. SO WE'RE I MEAN, IT COULD BE BAND INSTRUMENTS COULD BE UNIFORMS, EQUIPMENT, TRAVEL, ET CETERA. WHAT IS YOUR BUDGET SHOWING ALL INCOME AND EXPENDITURES? UM WE'RE THE NAME OF THE BANK WAS BEING HELD. WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT PRINCIPLE SUPPORTS THIS ENDEAVOR. IF YOU HAVE MONEY AT THE END OF THE YEAR, WHERE ARE YOU PLANNING TO USE THAT FOR? AND ALSO BECAUSE YOU ARE AN INDEPENDENT ORGANIZATION, MAKING SURE YOU HAVE LIABILITIES INSURANCE TO PROTECT THE ORGANIZATION AND THE OFFICERS IN IT. AH IF YOU A LITTLE FURTHER DOWN TALKS ABOUT TEACHERS AND COACHES CAN HAVE ADVISORY ROLES, BUT NEITHER THEY NOR THEIR FAMILIES SHOULD BE MAKING SHOULD BE HOLDING OFFICERS AGAIN. THIS IS A PARENT ORGANIZATION THAT SHOULD BE ABLE TO DO WITH THE PARENT FUNDS WHAT THEY WANT TO DO. UM THIS IS AGAIN A LOT OF THESE THINGS ARE BEING DONE ALREADY BY IN SCHOOL BY SCHOOL, BUT THEY AREN'T IN A CENTRALIZED WAY. AND THIS IS THE WAY THAT THE BOARD CAN MAKE SURE WE SEE WHAT'S GOING ON. AND IF WE ARE IN AND I GUARANTEE YOU HAVE ANNOUNCED BEFORE. IN 98% OF THE CASES WHERE IT COULD BE 100% IN FAVOR OF WHAT PEOPLE ARE DOING. BUT IF WE TAKE THE FEES ARE THE DONATIONS RATHER ARE TOO HIGH. WE CAN DEAL WITH THAT. IF WE THINK THAT THEIR FINANCES ARE IT SHOULD BE USED IN DIFFERENT WAY. WE CAN WORK ON THAT, TOO.

[02:20:03]

QUESTIONS. RIGHT? OKAY ON THE BOTTOM OF PAGE SIX, AND THEN IT THE LAST PARAGRAPH AND THEN IT GOES OVER TO PAGE SEVEN. UM I WAS WONDERING IF WE COULD HAVE SOME MORE. COMMON LANGUAGE, AND NOT SO. LOYALLY TALK IN THERE, SO IT'S MORE UNDERSTANDABLE. UM TO THE BOOSTERS. WHEN I READ THIS, I STOPPED AND I. PULL DOWN AND STARTED RESEARCHING WORDS AND THE ED CODE AND I THOUGHT, DO I REALLY UNDERSTAND THIS? AND WHAT ARE PARENT CONNECTED GROUPS REALLY UNDERSTAND WHAT THAT IS, SO MAYBE IT'S JUST SOME SORRY. ARE YOU ABOUT THE TESTAMENTARY ACT DEPARTMENT DICTIONARY FOR THAT ONE, TOO, AND SO I THINK IT. I KNOW WHAT IT MEANS TO BE QUESTIONING GIVES TO A TO A SCHOOL DIRECTLY, BUT AND THAT WAS A POLICY ADDED BY A LAW FIRM. SO, UH, YOUR YOUR INCLINATION IS CORRECT. AND SO, YES, WE CAN MAKE IT LESS LOYALLY. THANK YOU. AND THEN, UM, LET'S SEE. WHAT ELSE DID I HAVE ON HERE? MAY I HAVE ONE THING WHILE YOU'RE THINKING, UM, I NEGLECTED TO MENTION THAT WHEN WE BRING THIS BACK TO YOU, UM ONE OF THE THINGS WE ALSO THINK WE SHOULD BE DOING IS UH, THE DISTRICT PAYS FOR A HEAD COACH FOR THE VARSITY LEVEL. THE DISTRICT PAYS FOR ASSISTANT COACH WHENEVER YOU HAD THAT, AND THEY COACHES OFTEN TEACH COACHING THE JV LEVEL. BUT WHEN THE TEAM HAS A THIRD TEAM LIKE A FROST SOFT TEAM, THE DISTRICT DOES NOT COVER THAT WE ARE GOING TO BRING BACK A RECOMMENDATION THAT WE SHOULD BE COVERING THAT.

I THINK THAT WILL TRULY HELP THESE THE SCHOOLS. IT WILL. IN SOME CASES WITH WE HAVE LEARNED THAT SOME TEAMS NEVER FORMED BECAUSE THE FUNDING WASN'T THERE TO DO IT. IN OTHER CASES, IT WOULD REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF MONEY BEING ASKED OF THE PARENT OR BY THE PARENT ORGANIZATIONS AS WELL AND SO AS PART OF A WHOLE PACKAGE OF MAKING SURE THAT WE HAVE A GOOD POLICY IN PLACE, BUT ALSO PROVIDE THE FUNDING TO OPERATE IN A, YOU KNOW, AT LEAST A FUNCTIONAL MATTER. ALSO UM I REALLY LIKE NUMBER SEVEN, WHERE IT LISTS LIKE WHERE THE BANK ACCOUNTS ARE AND THINGS LIKE THAT. I BELONG TO TOO MANY ORGANIZATIONS WHERE THAT INFORMATION HAS BEEN LOST AND NOT KEPT UP, AND IT'S BECOME PROBLEMATIC. LATER ON. UM I LIKE THAT. IT'S A CLEAR DEFINITION.

CLEAR EXPECTATIONS. I THINK IT'S A REALLY GOOD GUY. SO THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR WORK ON IT. THANK YOU. HMM UM, POINT OF CLARIFICATION. THIS IS NOT SOMETHING TO INHIBIT FUNDRAISING . IT'S TO LIMIT WHAT'S ASKED OF FAMILIES CORRECT. UM IT'S TO MAKE SURE WE ASKED FOR FUNDS IN THE CORRECT WAY. IT'S TO MAKE SURE THE FUNDS BEING ASKED TO REASONABLE. UM AND IT'S JUST TO LET US BECAUSE WE NEED IN MANY WAYS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE WAY THAT BOOSTER CLUBS OPERATE, AND SO JUST HAVING A GOOD COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THE DISTRICT, THE BOARD AND THE BOOSTER CLUBS PERFECT UM AND THEN, ON THE ON PAGE SIX, WHERE IT TALKS ABOUT THE TEACHERS AND COACHES NOT BEING A PART OF NOT HOLDING OFFICES. SHOULD WE SAY SOMETHING SPECIFICALLY ABOUT NOT HAVING VOTING POWERS? WE CAN WE CAN. I MEAN, I THINK IT'S KIND OF INHERENT IN OFFICES. BUT SPELLING OUT VOTING POWERS MIGHT BE, UH, BENEFICIAL. THANK YOU. AND THEN, UH, QUESTION ABOUT.

THE WAY WE DEFINE THE ORGANIZATIONS INSTEAD OF EXTRA CURRICULA IN THE FIRST PARAGRAPH, CAN WE USE CO CURRICULAR? SINCE THEY DO RECEIVE A GRADE. IT IS PERIOD CLASS FOR ATHLETICS AND BAND AND I. YEAH, WE'LL FIGURE HOW TO DO THAT. WE YOU AND I HAD THAT CONVERSATION. AND I THINK IN CASES WHERE THEY ARE GREAT, YOU COULD CALL IT CO CURRICULAR. WE DO HAVE A FEW THAT AREN'T GRADE BASED. AND SO THAT'S TRUE. MAYBE WE GIVE IT ALL ENCOMPASSING TERMS. THERE INCLUDE CO CURRICULAR AND EXTRACURRICULAR, BUT I'LL LOOK AT THAT. YES, SIR.

THE ONLY THING I THINK IS MY CONCERN WITH ALL OF THIS WAS AS , UH, THE MANY SPORTS ARE GOING ON. THERE'S SOME FEES ARE EXTREMELY REASONABLE. AND THEN SOME THAT SEEM JUST YES, GREAT WORD. AND UM SO AS WE SIT HERE, AND WE TALK ABOUT ALL OF THIS EQUITY AND EDUCATION AND GIVING EVERYBODY A CHANCE, THERE'S SOME KIDS THAT CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY $2000 FOR BASEBALL TEAM. AND SO THAT'S WHERE IT REALLY WHERE WE'RE GOING WITH. THIS IS WHAT IS REASONABLE. UM AND SO IT'S

[02:25:02]

WELL UM, HOW CAN WE FIND THIS? DR MATTHEWS SAYS WE'RE LOOKING FOR ADDITIONAL COACHING POSITIONS, BUT ALSO TO IS, WE WANT TO MAKE SURE AS A BOARD THAT EVERYBODY HAS THE OPPORTUNITY TO PLAY AND IT'S AND YOU KNOW. FOR SOMEBODY TO SAY. HEY, I CAN'T GO PLAY BASKETBALL . I CAN'T GO PLAY BASEBALL BECAUSE THE FUNDS WERE WAY TOO HIGH. UM, THAT'S JUST NOT ACCEPTABLE, AND THAT'S NOT ACCEPTABLE TO ME. AND I KNOW A SONG SEVERAL TO MY BOARD MEMBERS. AND SO THIS IS ONE OF THE REAL REASONS THAT WE BROUGHT THIS FORWARD BECAUSE AS WE STILL TRY TO WORK TO GET MORE FUNDING INTO OUR SCHOOLS AND FUND OUR CHILDREN, AND SO I THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THIS FORWARD. DR MATTHEWS. WOULD YOU KNOW HOW MANY SCHOOL CONNECTED TO ORGANIZATIONS THE DISTRICT HAS CURRENTLY I DO NOT KNOW THAT NUMBER. I KNOW WE'VE LOOKED AT THAT A LITTLE BIT. I IT'S SOMEWHERE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD BETWEEN 15 80, I WOULD SAY.

AWESOME OKAY, UH, WITH THAT. LET'S GO AHEAD AND TAKE A VOTE. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR. AYE THOSE OPPOSED ALRIGHT MOTION CARRIES THANK YOU. STUDENT BOARD. THE NEXT PIECE ON OUR AGENDA. I'LL ASK FOR A MOTION. I'LL MAKE A MOTION TO ADOPT NUMBER RESOLUTION NUMBER 22-17 DESIGNATED THE MONTH OF FEBRUARY 2023 AS CAREER AND TECHNICAL EDUCATION MONTH SECOND OKAY. I HAVE A MOTION BOY.

MM HMM. OKAY. I'D LIKE TO, UH I HAVE A MOTION. I WILL MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE DATA

[02:40:03]

PRESIDENT YOUNGBLOOD, MEMBERS OF THE BOARD. DR MATTHEWS, EXECUTIVE CABINET AND MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY. WE ARE PROUD TO BRING TO YOU FOR APPROVAL AND AN INTRODUCTION TO DATA SCIENCE COURSE THAT HAS BEEN DEVELOPED THROUGH THE HARD WORK OF OUR P Y EL USD MATH TASK FORCE OVER THE PAST COUPLE OF YEARS. DATA SCIENCE IS A DISCIPLINE CENTERED AROUND GATHERING PROCESSING, MODELING AND ANALYZING DATA IN ORDER TO ACQUIRE A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF THE DATA. IN TODAY'S WORLD, THERE IS AN INFANT INFINITELY INCREASING NEED TO BE ABLE TO USE AND UNDERSTAND DATA, WHICH MAKES DATA SCIENCE, ONE OF THE FASTEST GROWING CAREERS IN THE WORLD.

THUS A FOCUS ON DATA SCIENCE AT BOTH THE COLLEGIATE AND SECONDARY LEVEL HAS PARALLELED THIS GROWTH. BY OFFERING A DATA SCIENCE COURSE AND P Y EL USD WE WILL ALLOW OUR STUDENTS TO HAVE A VARIETY OF OPPORTUNITIES TO BE COLLEGE AND CAREER READY IN THE AREA OF MATHEMATICS. THIS COURSE , WHICH IS INTENDED PRIMARILY AS A THIRD YEAR MATH COURSE, WILL PROVIDE AN OPTION FOR STUDENTS TO TAKE AFTER COMPLETING GEOMETRY AND WE'LL MEET THE SAME REQUIREMENTS AT THE COLLEGIATE LEVEL IS ALGEBRA TWO. STUDENTS MAY ALSO TAKE IT AS A MATH ELECTIVE AFTER COMPLETING ALGEBRA TWO OR ANOTHER ADVANCED MATH COURSE. STUDENTS WITH AN INTEREST IN MAJORS AND CAREERS THAT REQUIRE STATISTICS COURSES , INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO I T BUSINESS MARKETING SALES, EDUCATION, HEALTHCARE, GOVERNMENT COMMUNICATIONS, ENTERTAINMENT, SOCIAL SERVICE AND TRANSPORTATION INFRASTRUCTURE WILL BENEFIT FROM THE OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE THIS EXPOSURE TO RELATED CONTENT AT THE HIGH SCHOOL LEVEL. THE COURSE WE HAVE DEVELOPED AS BOTH RIGOROUS AND RELEVANT, CHALLENGING STUDENTS TO WORK HANDS ON WITH DATA AND TO THINK CRITICALLY, WILL REGULARLY USING READING, WRITING, MODELING, ANALYSIS AND COLLABORATION TO DO SO. AS A RESULT, STUDENTS IN OUR INTRODUCTION TO DATA SCIENCE COURSE WILL HAVE FAR MORE PRACTICE AND EXPERIENCE IN THE COMMUNICATING, REASONING AND PROBLEM SOLVING AND MODELING DATA DATA ANALYSIS CLAIMS THAT ARE ASSESSED ON THE CAST. THESE TWO CLAIMS REQUIRE STUDENTS TO DEMONSTRATE THE ABILITY TO SUPPORT MATHEMATICAL CONCLUSIONS AND USE APPROPRIATE TOOLS AND STRATEGIES TO SOLVE REAL WORLD AND MATHEMATICAL PROBLEMS, WHICH ARE INTEGRAL COMPONENTS OF THE DATA SCIENCE CURRICULUM. OTHER BENEFITS TO OUR STUDENTS INCLUDE A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY FOR STUDENTS WHO MAY CHOOSE TO STOP AFTER THE REQUIRED TWO YEARS OF MATHEMATICS TO INSTEAD CONTINUE ON WITH MATH AND HIGH SCHOOL. WE STRONGLY BELIEVE THIS WILL INCREASE THE NUMBER OF STUDENTS TAKING A THIRD YEAR OF MATH. IN ADDITION TO THE NUMBER OF STUDENTS WHO ARE COLLEGE AND CAREER READY, ACCORDING TO THE COLLEGE CAREER INDICATOR ON THE CALIFORNIA DASHBOARD. FINALLY THIS COURSE, IS BOTH A TO G AND N C. APPROVED PROVIDING OUR STUDENTS WITH FURTHER OPPORTUNITIES TO IMPROVE THEIR COLLEGE APPLICATION PROFILES. EACH OF THE FOUR COMPREHENSIVE HIGH SCHOOLS HAVE IDENTIFIED TEACHERS WHO ARE QUALIFIED AND EXCITED TO TEACH THIS COURSE AND WE HOPE TO OFFER IT TO STUDENTS BEGINNING IN THE 2023 24 SCHOOL YEAR. THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION. DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? QUESTIONS. IT'S GREAT, THANK YOU. YEAH THAT'S AN EASY QUESTION. I DON'T HAVE ANY QUESTIONS. I'LL MINE WERE ANSWERED. AND THANKS FOR SENDING ME THE SEQUENCE OF THE COURSES THAT WAS REALLY HELPFUL. AND I JUST REALLY APPRECIATE THIS OPPORTUNITY THAT WE JUST KEEP GIVING OUR STUDENTS MORE OPPORTUNITIES AND DIFFERENT WAYS TO SUCCEED. THAT MIGHT YOU KNOW? INTEREST THEM AND BE ABLE TO ASSIST THEM IN THEIR MOUTH SCORE, ESPECIALLY SINCE WE NEED HELP. I THINK I WAS VERY COMFORTABLE AND MRS FINNEY HAD ME GIVE, YOU KNOW. GET INVOLVED IN THE THIRD GRADE. C G. SO IF I GO TO THIS CLASS, I THINK I WANT TO GO AS AN OBSERVER. ONLY JUST LIKE ALL, JUST MAKE THAT CLAIM RIGHT NOW. HEY I KNOW MY LIMITATIONS. ALRIGHT WITH THAT SAID ALL THOSE IN FAVOR ALRIGHT, I OPPOSED. NEGATIVE MOTION.

[02:45:11]

[BOARD DISCUSSION]

I JUST WANT TO SAY I'M DISAPPOINTED BY THAT DECISION, BUT I RESPECT THE BOARD'S AUTHORITY. BUT I'M DISAPPOINTED. THANK YOU, SIR. IN THE LAST MEETING. WE DID HIRE THE FIRM OF ORBACH, HUFF AND HENDERSON. THE DAY AFTER THE BOARD MEETING, WE REACHED OUT TO THE FIRM TO BE TO START MEETING WITH THEM ABOUT THE TRANSITION OF SERVICES. UM WE HAVE. THEY'VE COME HERE FOR A VARIETY OF MEETINGS. WE'VE HAD MEETINGS ON FOOT FOLLOWING MEETINGS WITH THEM. WE'VE HAD ZOOM MEETINGS WITH GORBACHEV AND HENDERSON. I WILL SAY WE'VE HAD VERY POSITIVE INTERACTIONS WITH THEM THE ENTIRE WAY. BUT I'LL ALSO SAY IN MY I'VE BEEN DEALING WITH ATTORNEYS NOW FOR ABOUT 33 YEARS OF MY JOBS. I'VE TRULY APPRECIATED EVERY EDUCATIONAL TURNING HAVE WORKED WITH THEY ARE GOOD PEOPLE AND THINGS FOR THE RIGHT FOR THE RIGHT REASONS . UM, HERE TO SUPPORT SCHOOLS ARE ATTORNEYS. THE ONE THAT WE ALWAYS WORK WITH DID NOT CHARGE EXORBITANT FEES, INCLUDING THIS NEW FIRM, AND THEY DO GREAT WORK FOR ALL SCHOOLS, SO I'M I'M GRATEFUL FOR ALL OF THEM. WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF MOVING, UH, MOVING WORK TO THIS NEW FIRM, IN FACT, A GREAT DEAL OF IT TO THE TO THE NEW FIRM, SO WE'VE ALSO LEARNED WHAT THEY CAN AND CANNOT DO. UM AND, UH AND SO I'D LIKE TO TALK ABOUT THAT. WHERE? WHERE WE ARE AT THIS POINT AND GET BORED FEEDBACK ON THAT. UM, THE NEW FIRM DOES NOT WORK IN THE AREA OF WORKERS COMP. SO I'M RECOMMENDING THAT WE KEEP OUR CURRENT, UM, LAWYERS THAT WE USE IN OUR WORKERS' COMPENSATION CLAIMS. UM WE USE A DIFFERENT INSURER FOR OUR LIABILITY CLAIMS WITH A VARIETY OF ATTORNEYS TO GO WITH THAT. I'M RECOMMENDING THAT WE RETAIN THE ABILITY TO USE THOSE ATTORNEYS WITH THEIR LIABILITY CLAIMS. UM WE HAVE A FEW CASES THAT ARE ARE WELL INTO IN SOME CASES YEARS INTO A LITIGATION PROCESS AND IN TALKING WITH ORBACH ABOUT THAT THEY ARE THEY BELIEVE THAT IT WOULD BE, UH, MAKES TOTAL SENSE

[02:50:04]

THANK YOU, SIR. FOR WORKERS WORKERS COMPENSATION. THEY'RE SUGGESTED ATTORNEYS BY R. TPA WHICH IS A THIRD PARTY ADMINISTRATOR WHO IS ATHENS ADMINISTRATORS. AND WE CHANGE THEM PERIODICALLY, DEPENDING ON THEIR WORK, LOAD OR DIFFERENT CASES AND WHAT THEIR EXPERTISE IS. AND SO THEY COME RECOMMENDED BY OUR T P A. AS FAR AS LIABILITY. THAT'S KEENAN.

THROUGH SCR. SCR AS A POOL OF ATTORNEYS SO WE CAN RECOMMEND ATTORNEYS. COME ON, COME OFF.

AND USUALLY THEY USE THE ONES THAT ARE EXPERT TOO. THE CASES THAT WE'RE WORKING ON. OKAY UM, AND SO I HAVE NO PROBLEM USING THE HARBOTTLE LAW FIRM, BUT I WOULD LIKE TO JUST SAY THAT, UM ORBACH HAPPEN HENDERSON. THEY DO ACTUALLY HAVE A SPECIALTY IN SPECIAL EDUCATION. SO IF IT DID COME TO THAT WE WOULD BE IN VERY GOOD HANDS. AND SO MY NEXT THING IS THE BOARD WAS THERE WAS A BOARD DIRECTIVE AT OUR LAST ONE THAT BASICALLY WE WOULD HIGHER. ORBACH HEAVEN HENDERSON AS OUR BOARD ATTORNEY AND THAT AS OUR FACILITIES AND THAT IT WOULD BECOME FORWARD, BASICALLY DETERMINATE ATKINSON AT THIS NEXT MEETING, AND SO I WAS CURIOUS AS TO WHY THAT DIDN'T COME FORWARD AS AGENDA ITEM, BUT THEN ALSO AS WELL. I WANTED TO MAKE SURE BECAUSE I'VE HEARD THAT ATKINSON IS ALSO IN OUR PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT. AND SO I BELIEVE IT WAS THE WILL OF THE BOARD TO NOT HAVE ATKINSON CARRY FORWARD WITH OUR PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT ANY LONGER AS WELL.

SO I WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAD MADE THE CHANGE. UM TWO OR BLOCKED OFF AND HENDERSON. I GIVE ME ONE SECOND, PLEASE. I'M TRYING TO FIND THE EXACT MOTION THAT WAS PASSED WITH THAT BECAUSE IT WAS EVEN IN OUR MINUTE. JUST NOT AS UM YOU DESCRIBE THAT? UM I BELIEVE THE MOTION WAS TO HIRE THE FIRM THAT IT WOULD BE THE BOARD'S ATTORNEY, AND THAT WAS THE END OF THE MOTION. BUT IN THE CONVERSATION, WE SAID THAT WE WOULD RESEARCH THAT LOOK AT WHAT WHAT MADE SENSE IN TERMS OF TRANSITIONING WORK OVER AND UM AND BRING THAT ISSUE BACK TO YOU. AT THIS MEETING WE THERE WAS AN INITIAL MOTION TO AH TO STOP WORKING WITH ONE OF THE LAW FIRMS, BUT THAT MOTION WAS WITHDRAWN. I DO RECALL AS WE. WENT FROM THAT WE SAID THAT THEY WERE GOING TO TAKE CARE OF FACILITIES AND THEN THEY WILL BECOME THE BOARD ATTORNEY. AND THEN I ALSO, UM REMEMBER SAYING SO, IN FEBRUARY, 7TH. WE WILL TERMINATE WITH ATKINSON ONCE BECAUSE ALL OF THESE MEETINGS WERE VERY CONFIDENT THAT ALL OF THESE MEETINGS WOULD GO. WELL, UM AND SO I DO REMEMBER THAT. AND SO I'M JUST CURIOUS. IS ATKINSON STILL IN OUR PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT? I BELIEVE IN TERMS OF PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT. INCREDIBLY FROM LONG, WE'RE GONNA BE ABLE TO MOVE OVER TO ORBACH FOR OUR TRAININGS IN THE FUTURE. THAT'S WHAT WE THAT'S WILL BE HAPPENING . BUT AGAIN THE MOTION. THOSE THINGS WERE DISCUSSED, BUT THE

[02:55:04]

GOOD EVENING. ONCE AGAIN, IT'S MY PLEASURE TO PRESENT YOU THIS EVENING ON SOME OF THE KEY COMPONENTS OF OUR DISTRICT, LOCAL CONTROL AND ACCOUNTABILITY PLAN, OR AS WE ALL NOW KNOW IT CAP. IT IS DESIGNED TO COMMUNICATE BOTH ACTIONS AND EXPENDITURES TO SUPPORT STUDENT OUTCOMES AND OVERALL PERFORMANCE FOR A THREE YEAR PERIOD. ESSENTIALLY IT PROVIDES THE VEHICLE FOR US P Y EL TO ENGAGE IN THREE DISTINCT FUNCTIONS, COMPREHENSIVE STRATEGIC PLANNING AS A MEANS TO ESTABLISH ACTIONS AND GOALS TO STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT AND THREE ACCOUNTABILITY AND COMPLIANCE. THE COMPLIANCE. PEACE REQUIRES THAT WE UPDATE OUR PLAN ANNUALLY TO REFLECT PROGRESS TOWARDS OUR ESTABLISHED ESTABLISHED GOALS, AND ESSENTIALLY, WE USE IT THEREFORE AS A ROADMAP FOR CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT, TO MAKE IT MORE MEANINGFUL. WE'VE ALIGNED AND BASED AL EL CAP TO OUR PLACENTA, YORBA LINDA STRATEGIC PLAN. THE ADVANTAGE.

EACH GOAL OF THE L. CAPITAL C IS ALIGNED TO ONE OF THE ADVANTAGE PLANS, FOCUS AREAS AND STRATEGIES THAT WE IDENTIFIED BACK IN 2019 TO HELP GUIDE DECISION MAKING. IT'S A THREE YEAR PLAN THAT OUTLINES PROGRESS IN AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT. NEXT YEAR, WILL BE MOVING INTO THE THIRD YEAR OF THAT THREE YEAR. PLANS ARE ALL OF THE INPUT THAT WE ARE GATHERING NOW WILL HELP GUIDE ACTIONS THAT WILL LAND IN THE THIRD YEAR, AND THAT'S NEXT YEAR ABOUT AL CAPP. PLACENTA BELINDA HAS A LONG HISTORY OF PARTNERING ASSEMBLY STAFF MEMBERS, STUDENTS AND THE COMMUNITY AT LARGE. AND SO DR MATTHEWS WILL NOW OUTLINE FOR US JUST HOW MANY GROUPS WE MEET WITH AND HOW THAT PROCESS WORKS. THANK YOU, DR ADAMSON. THIS IS A LIST OF ALL THE MEETINGS THAT WE'VE ALREADY HAD. AND THE MEETINGS THAT WE CONTINUE TO HAVE IN THIS PROCESS, AND SO, UM , WE STARTED BACK IN JANUARY AND AGAIN IN EACH OF THESE MEETINGS. WE ARE WE ARE EXPLAINING TO THEM WITH THE AL CAPP IS ALL ABOUT. WE WERE TALKING TO THEM ABOUT THE DATA THAT WE HAVE. NO WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THE GOALS THAT WE HAVE FOR THE FUTURE AND GETTING THEIR FEEDBACK AND SO WE ARE ACCUMULATING A GREAT DEAL OF FEEDBACK. UM THAT WE PLAN TO BRING TO YOU AT THE APRIL 25TH BOARD SESSION. SO BY THE TIME WE GET TO THAT, UM WE WILL BE ABLE TO ACCUMULATE THAT WILL ALSO BE ABLE TO INTEGRATE COMMENTS. BOARD MEMBERS HAVE ALREADY MADE IN ANY COMMENTS MADE TONIGHT'S

[03:00:03]

ALL KINDS OF EMPLOYEES HAVE BEEN. WE'VE SOLICITED THEIR IMPACT AND THEIR INPUT RATHER AND THAT WE'RE THAT DATA COLLECTION IS AMASSING. SO THANK YOU. THANK YOU, DR MATTHEWS. TO HELP US ESTABLISH STRENGTHS AND AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT. THE CALIFORNIA DASHBOARD REPORTS HOW DISTRICT SCHOOLS AND STUDENT GROUPS ARE PERFORMING ACROSS STATE AND LOCAL MEASURES WERE REQUIRED TO MEASURE OUR STRENGTHS AND AREAS OF NEED BASED ON THE DASHBOARD AND IN SO DOING A SIGN AL CAPP ACTIONS IN THOSE AREAS OF GREATEST NEED. SO WE'RE GOING TO GO INTO GO AHEAD AND JUST GO THROUGH FOR THE PURPOSES OF TIME THIS EVENING. I'M JUST GOING TO HIGHLIGHT A FEW OF THOSE AREAS OF STRENGTH. I WILL GO INTO A LITTLE BIT MORE DETAIL OF THAT WHEN WE COME BACK TOGETHER IN APRIL FOR OUR BOARD STUDY SESSION, BUT THE FIRST FOCUS AREA IS ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT. THE STATE ANNUALLY MEASURES STUDENT PERFORMANCE THROUGH THE SMARTER, BALANCED ASSESSMENT AND REPORTS THE INFORMATION ON THE CALIFORNIA DASHBOARD IN TERMS OF FIVE LEVELS THAT RANGE FROM VERY LOW AND LOW TO MEDIUM HIGH AND THEN VERY HIGH, SO SOME OF THE HIGHLIGHTS HERE AND LOOKING SPECIFICALLY AT ENGLISH LANGUAGE ARTS, WE ARE PROUD TO PRESENT TO REPORT THAT THE CALIFORNIA DASHBOARD RATED US AS HIGH FOR ENGLISH LANGUAGE ARTS BASED ON THE SMARTER, BALANCED DATA, AND THAT'S WHEN WE'RE LOOKING AT, YOU KNOW AT ALL STUDENTS OVERALL DISTRICT WIDE LOOKING AT TRAINS AS WE'RE IDENTIFYING AND ANALYZING THE VARIOUS GRADE LEVELS, WE NOTICED THAT SIXTH GRADERS ACTUALLY OUTSCORED. THEY CAN'T APPEARS BY 10% ONCE AGAIN THAT'S SPECIFICALLY LOOKING AT ENGLISH LANGUAGE ARTS. CONTINUING ON THE FOCUS AREA.

ONE POINT OH, NOW MOVING INTO THE AREA OF MATHEMATICS THAT'S ALSO BASED ON OUR SMARTER, BALANCED ASSESSMENTS, AND HE HAD TO A PROUD TO REPORT THAT WE SCORED HIGH IN THE AREA OF MATH ON THE SMARTER, BALANCED LOOKING AT GRADE LEVELS. WE NOTED THAT OUR THIRD GRADERS ACTUALLY OUTPERFORMED THE ORANGE COUNTY PEERS BY 10% IN MATH ONCE AGAIN, BASED ON THAT SMARTER, BALANCED DATA. YOU KNOW, TO OTHER AREAS OF PRIDE. WE ARE CONTINUING ON WITH ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT. WE NOTED THAT ALBUM AS STUDENTS TAKING ADVANCED PLACEMENT EXAMS THAT ROSE TO 84% WE REPORTED THAT AT THE BEGINNING OF THE SCHOOL YEAR, WE'RE VERY PROUD TO SEE THAT IMPROVEMENT AND THEN A 98% PASS RATE FOR OUR STUDENTS TAKING INTERNATIONAL BACCALAUREATE OR I B EXAMS. SO THAT WAS FOCUSED AREA ONE POINT MOVING ON TO FOCUS AREA TWO POINT. OH THIS IS SPECIFIC TO EFFECTIVE INSTRUCTION AND LEADERSHIP. THERE ARE SPECIFIC MEASUREMENTS THAT THE DASHBOARD REQUIRES US TO LOOK AT IT IN THIS PARTICULAR AREA, AND IT'S ACTUALLY FOUR LEVELS OF THEIR MEASURE. THE FIRST IS WHERE THE STUDENTS HAVE STANDARDS. ALIANT INSTRUCTION, INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS. THE SECOND IS WHERE THEY WERE IMPLEMENTING THE STATE CONTENT STANDARDS. THE THIRD IS THAT WE'RE PROVIDING A BROAD COURSE OF STUDY AND NUMBER FOUR THAT TEACHERS ARE APPROPRIATELY CREDENTIAL IN THE SUBJECTS THAT THEY ARE TEACHING. AND SO WE HAVE A VARIETY OF WAYS, YOU KNOW OF MEASURING THAT, BUT ONE OF THE MAIN MEANS WE UTILIZE OUR STAKEHOLDER SURVEY RESULTS, AND SO HE HAD TO JUST, YOU KNOW, HIGHLIGHTING, YOU KNOW SOME OF THE AREAS OF PRIDE. LOOKING AT SOME OF THE RESULTS WE RECEIVED FROM PARENTS AND THIS IS FROM OUR, UH, OUR SPRING. 2022 SURVEY RESULTS THE WIND OUT THIS TIME, YOU KNOW, IN FEBRUARY LAST YEAR , 88% OF PARENTS REPORTED THAT THEY FEEL CLASSROOM INSTRUCTION PREPARES THE CHILD FOR THE NEXT GRADE LEVEL, AND 86% OF PARENTS REPORT THAT TEACHERS AT THIS SCHOOL HAVE APPROPRIATE EXPECTATIONS. LOOKING AT OUR STUDENT DATA. WE SEE THE 91% OF STUDENTS REPORTED. THEY FEEL THEY'RE LEARNING NEW THINGS. AND 92% OF STUDENTS REPORT THAT THEY FEEL THEY SCHOOL EXPECTS REALLY GOOD WORK AGAIN. JUST OUR ABILITY AND YOU KNOW IN IN IN TO RAISE THE EXPECTATIONS, ENSURING THAT WE'RE HOLDING STUDENT STUDENTS NOT ONLY ACCOUNTABLE, BUT YOU KNOW, ENSURING THAT THEY'RE THEY'RE STRETCHING THEMSELVES AND LEARNING NEW THINGS CONSTANTLY. SO WE'RE PROUD OF THOSE RESULTS. IT IS MY PLEASURE AT THIS TIME TO INTRODUCE DR SHADY SPACE ART, OUR DIRECTOR OF STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT AND SUPPORT AND SHE WILL REVIEW WITH US FOCUS AREA THREE AND FOUR. THANK YOU, DR ADAMSON. AREA 3.0 IS ENGAGED COMMUNITY AS WE MENTIONED A LITTLE BIT EARLIER. WE TOOK THESE RESULTS FROM LAST YEAR'S ANNUAL SURVEY, WHICH IS CURRENTLY TAKING PLACE SO AGAIN , WE'LL HAVE UPDATED RESULTS TO REPORT OUT ON THAT. BUT BASED ON LAST YEAR'S SURVEY, WE SHOWED THAT 80% OF OUR STUDENTS REPORTED THAT THEY FEEL LIKE THEY BELONG IN SCHOOL. WE HAD 81% OF STUDENTS REPORT THAT TEACHERS AND OTHER ADULTS THAT THEIR SCHOOL CARE ABOUT THEM.

AND 87% OF PARENTS REPORTED THAT THEY HAVE ACCESS TO INFORMATION ABOUT THE DISTRICT SCHOOLS, PROGRAMS, ACTIVITIES AND STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT. ADDITIONALLY WE'RE PROUD TO SHARE THAT WE MET THE SAME MANDATED LOCAL INDICATOR FOR PARENTS AND FAMILY ENGAGEMENT AND MET IS THE

[03:05:03]

AS WE MOVE TO GRADUATION RATES, WE SCORED HIGH OVERALL RATE OF 94.2% OF OUR STUDENTS GRADUATED IN THE 2022 SCHOOL YEAR. LOOKING AT DROPOUT RATES ARE MIDDLE SCHOOL REMAINS AT 0% DROPOUT AND OUR HIGH SCHOOL IS AT A VERY LOW LEVEL OF 2.2% AGAIN, MAKING SURE THAT WE ARE FOCUSING ON WHO THOSE STUDENTS ARE. KNOWING HOW WE CAN SUPPORT THEM AND GRADUATION AND WE'RE CONSTANTLY REFLECTING ON THAT PIECE. AS WE MOVED TO AREA FOUR POINT OH, THIS IS SAFE AND RESPECTFUL ENVIRONMENTS, EACH OF OUR SCHOOLS PROUD TO SHARE THAT THEY HAVE A COMPREHENSIVE SAFETY PLAN , AND THAT SAFETY PLAN HAS BEEN CREATED WITH COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS. EACH OF OUR 34 SCHOOLS HAS A PLAN THAT THEY'VE GONE OVER WITH THEIR STAFF DILIGENTLY AND SO IN THAT AREA, WE ARE PROUD OF THAT. WE ALSO HAVE THE CONSISTENT IMPLEMENTATION OF PBS, WHICH IS OUR POSITIVE BEHAVIOR INTERVENTIONS THAT SUPPORTS EACH OF OUR 34 SITES HAS A PROGRAM IN PLACE. THEY START WITH A BIG KICKOFF. THEY TEACH PLENTY OF EXPECTATIONS WITHIN EACH AREA OF THEIR CAMPUSES AND REWARD KIDS FOR MAKING GOOD CHOICES. AND LAST, BUT NOT LEAST WE HAVE THE STATE ACCOUNTABILITY DASHBOARD. WE SCORED LOW FOR SUSPENSIONS. THIS ONE IS A LITTLE TRICKY. WE WANT TO BE LOW IN THIS AREA. UM, SO KEEPING THAT IN MIND THAT OUR ENDEAVORS AS YOU MENTIONED BEFORE S T CATCHING KIDS DOING THE RIGHT THING AND ALSO MAKING SURE THAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR TEACHABLE MOMENTS. UM WE ARE PROUD TO SHARE THAT IS A LOW LEVEL FOR US. AND IT IS MY PLEASURE NOW TO TURN IT BACK OVER TO DR ADAMSON FOR OUR GREATEST NEEDS. THANK YOU, DOCTOR. SPACE HARD. SO NOW THAT WE'VE REFLECTED ON AND SHARED SOME OF OUR AREAS OF HIGHLIGHT WE'RE NOW THE IMPORTANT PART OF THAT IS WE NEED TO IDENTIFY WHAT OUR AREAS OF GREATEST NEEDS ARE, BECAUSE ULTIMATELY THAT'S GOING TO BE WHAT WHERE WE NEED TO FOCUS OUR ACTIONS IN IN IDENTIFYING PROGRAMS AND SUPPORTS FOR NEXT YEAR, SO WE'VE IDENTIFIED FIVE AREAS OF NEED, I ONCE AGAIN ALL BASED ON THE RESULTS AND THE SCORES THAT PRESENTED IN THAT WE'VE JUST REVIEWED WITH YOU AND FROM THE DASHBOARD. SO THE FIRST TWO ARE ON THE NEXT SLIDE AND YOU'LL SEE THAT I WE'VE IDENTIFIED THEM SPECIFIC TO ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT. SO THE FIRST ONE BEING ENGLISH LANGUAGE ARTS AND THE SECOND MATH AND YOU'LL RECALL WHEN WE SHARED AT THE BEGINNING OF THE PRESENTATION WE TALKED ABOUT THE CALIFORNIA DASHBOARD HAD REPORTED THAT WE WERE DOING WE WERE SCORED HIGH IN BOTH LANGUAGE, ARTS AND IN MATH, AND THAT WAS FOR ALL STUDENTS. HOWEVER YOU KNOW, ONE OF THE OTHER AREAS OF THE DASHBOARD LOOKS AT AS THEY BREAK THOSE SCHOOLS DOWN BY STUDENT GROUP. SO WHEN WE LOOK AT OUR STUDENT GROUPS, THERE ARE SIX STUDENT GROUPS IDENTIFIED AS SCORING TWO OR MORE LEVELS BELOW THAT OF ALL STUDENTS, AND SO THEY'RE LISTED THERE. OUR ENGLISH LEARNERS HOMELESS, HISPANIC, LOW INCOME STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES AND FASTER YOUTH STUDENT GROUPS OR OUR STUDENT GROUPS THAT WE'RE GOING TO WANT TO ENSURE THAT WE'RE IDENTIFYING ACTIONS TO PUT INTO INTO PLACE SUPPORTS TARGETED INSTRUCTION FOR NEXT YEAR. AND THAT REALLY MOVES INTO INTO THE SECOND ONE, WHICH IS SPECIFIC TO MATH AND YOU'LL SEE VERY SIMILAR. ONCE AGAIN. WE SCORED HIGH ON THE DASHBOARD ROOM LOOKING AT ALL STUDENTS, BUT ONCE AGAIN WE BROKE IT DOWN BY STUDENT GROUP WAS NOTICEABLE THAT THERE WERE SEVEN STUDENT GROUPS WHO WERE SCORING TWO OR MORE LEVELS BELOW THAT DIVORCE STUDENTS AND THAT WAS OUR AFRICAN AMERICAN STUDENTS. ENGLISH LEARNERS HOMELESS, HISPANIC LOW INCOME STUDENTS OF DISABILITIES. AND FASTER, YOU STUDENT GROUP. WHAT'S INTERESTING THERE IS YOU SEE THAT MANY OF THOSE ARE DUPLICATED WRITING BOTH SUBJECT AREAS, SO YOU KNOW, I KNOW THAT TIES IN A LITTLE WITH SOME OF THE CONVERSATIONS WE'VE HAD THIS EVENING. YOU KNOW, JUST THAT ABILITY FOR US TO BE ABLE TO ENGAGE EXCITES STUDENTS. SETI PROGRAMS, I THINK JUST REALLY THE OUR ABILITY TO ENSURE THAT YOU KNOW, WE'RE OFFERING THOSE PROGRAMS FOR THEM THAT IS GOING TO BE OF INTEREST TO THEM AND ALLOW THEM TO ENGAGE AND CONNECT TO THE CURRICULUM THAT THEY'RE LEARNING. SO THOSE ARE THE FIRST TO, UH, AND TO TALK US THROUGH THE REMAINING THREE. I'M GOING TO TURN IT BACK TO DOCTORS FACE HEART. THANK YOU, DR ADAMSON.

THE THIRD AREA OF NEED IS GRADUATION. WHILE WE ARE VERY PROUD OF OUR OVERALL NUMBER AS WE LOOK AT OUR STUDENTS SPECIFICALLY OR ENGLISH LEARNERS AND STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES, WE HAVE SOME WORK TO DO AND SO MAKING SURE THAT WE ARE REALLY LOOKING AT OUR STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES AT A YOUNG AGE AND FINDING OPPORTUNITIES FOR THEM TO MAINSTREAM INTO THE GENERAL ENVIRONMENT AND RECEIVED THAT DIPLOMA. IT'S A HUGE FOCUS OF OURS AS AS WELL AS OUR ENGLISH LEARNERS, KNOWING WHO ARE STUDENTS ARE MONITORING THEM AND RECLASSIFYING THEM AS SOON AS POSSIBLE IN THE AREA OF CHRONIC ABSENTEEISM. THIS IS A HIGHER FOR ALL STUDENT GROUPS, AS IT IS ACROSS CALIFORNIA GETS TRICKY. WE TALK ABOUT COME TO SCHOOL, BUT WE ALSO SAY, STAY HOME IF YOU HAVE SYMPTOMS, AND SO BALANCING THAT UNPACKING STUDENTS THAT MAYBE DON'T HAVE SYMPTOMS, BUT THERE'S OTHER BARRIERS THAT WE CAN SUPPORT WITH GETTING INTO SCHOOL. SO

[03:10:04]

IF WE DO THEN YES, WE WOULD BE ABLE TO BREAK IT DOWN. SO I WILL GET BACK TO ON THAT FOR SURE.

YEAH, ABSOLUTELY. CITY. OKAY? WHAT DO WE OR DO WE HAVE AN ESTIMATED MARGIN OF ERROR IN THESE SURVEYS THAT WE'RE BASING ALL THIS ON LIKE 5% 2% 12, WE GUESS IS WRONG. THERE'S ALWAYS AN ESTIMATED MARGIN OF ERROR. WE KNOW THAT YOU KNOW, WITH ANY STATISTICS AND DATA, BUT ESSENTIALLY, THESE ARE THE SURVEY DATA THAT WE SEND OUT TO OUR OWN PARENTS AND STUDENTS.

AND SO WE'RE COLLECTING. YOU KNOW WHAT THEY'RE YOU KNOW, GIVING TO US, UM AND SO YOU KNOW , EVEN IF YOU WERE TO TAKE AND I THINK THAT SMALL MARGIN OF ERROR AND I THINK THAT THE STATISTICS SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES, THEY'RE VERY POWERFUL. CURIOUS BECAUSE WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING AT STATISTICS AND THINGS LIKE ESPECIALLY WHEN. I'M GONNA SAY IT HERE. I DISLIKE THE CALIFORNIA DASHBOARD BECAUSE IT DOESN'T GIVE US NUMBERS. IT GIVES US COLORS AND WORDS WHICH WE HAVE TO DEAL WITH. I UNDERSTAND THAT I DO LIKE THAT. WE HAVE. WE DO HAVE THE DATA, WHICH IS GOOD WHEN I LOOK AT THE CHARTS BECAUSE WE GOT A BREAKDOWN BY GRADE THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THAT. UM WE ARE CONSIDERED HIGH YET OUR MATH COMPREHENSION IS AT 52% ACROSS THE BOARD, AND OUR READING IS THAT 64 ACROSS THE BOARD, AND THERE'S A SLIDE IN HERE THAT TALKS ABOUT WHERE IS IT? THE A P I B PROGRAMS THAT ARE JUST CRUSHING. WE HAVE ADVANCED PLACEMENT ROSE 84% 98% PASS RATE ON THE I B EXAMS. SO THEY'RE REALLY PULLING US UP. WHICH MEANS THESE NUMBERS ARE FEEL A LITTLE INFLATED. WHICH I'M SAYING, WE HAVE A LOT OF WORK TO DO. WHICH NUMBERS ARE, UM, THAT SAYS WE'RE 52% IN MATH AND 64% IN READING. THOSE ARE PULLED UP EXTREMELY BY OUR UH, ARE INTENSE POPULATION OF A P I B STUDENTS. SO I'M JUST SAYING, WHEN WE LOOK AT WHEN I LOOK AT 52 64, I THINK I'M PROBABLY LOOKING AT 48. 53 55 ISH. WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE STUDENTS THAT ARE NOT IN A P I B. I'M JUST SAYING, WE GOT A LOT OF WORK TO DO. AND FROM THE STANDPOINT OF THAT, BEING A AN ACHIEVEMENT THING. I DON'T KNOW . I'M LOOKING. I'M I'M LOOKING

[03:15:02]

EXCELLENT. AND I'M SURE THAT, UH , DR GEORGE A. LOPEZ IS GOING TO BRING THAT ELOP PROGRAM TOGETHER , AND THAT'S GOING TO HELP HELP OUT THESE SCORES AS WELL. EXTENDING THE DAY. ABSOLUTELY YEAH, ABSOLUTELY. SO ONE THING THAT WAS BROUGHT UP THIS WEEK WAS FOR MIDDLE SCHOOL. I WAS WHEN I WAS ON A COUPLE OF THE CAMPUSES THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT . YOU KNOW, THEY HAVE A SEVEN PERIOD DAY THEY HAVE TWO ELECTIVES. AND SO ONE SITE WANTED TO PILOT 1/6 PERIOD DAY, SO THE FOCUS THEY WOULD TAKE AWAY ONE ELECTIVE, BUT THE FOCUS COULD GO BACK TO MATH AND ENGLISH LANGUAGE ARTS. AND SO I THOUGHT, THAT WAS A GOOD IDEA. AND THEN AS I KIND OF LIKE WE TALKED WITH OTHERS, UM THEY THOUGHT THAT THAT WAS A GOOD IDEA AS WELL. BECAUSE YOU DON'T TAKE TWO ELECTIVES IN HIGH SCHOOL. I MEAN, MAYBE YOU DO AT THE END, YOU KNOW WHEN YOU'RE OUT OF YOUR CLASSES, BUT WHEN YOU GO IN YOU DON'T TAKE THE TWO ELECTIVES. YOU HAVE THE ONE ELECTIVE OPPORTUNITIES. SO I WAS THINKING TO MYSELF. IS THAT SOMETHING THAT WE NEED TO DO IN OUR MIDDLE SCHOOLS? DO WE PILOT PROGRAM AND SEE IF THE SCORES RAISE UM AND GO TO THE SIXTH PERIOD DAY, OR DO YOU KNOW OR DO WE DO IT ACROSS THE BOARD? AND I WAS GOING TO SAY SOMETHING ELSE, BUT I FORGOT HE'LL COME BACK TO ME A MINUTE. IT'S PROBABLY REALLY GOOD. UM OH, AS PART OF THE EL CAP, I REALLY DO FEEL SUPER STRONG ABOUT TRAVIS RANCHES ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. I MEAN, WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING. IN THOSE CLASSROOMS BECAUSE I HONESTLY IF ANYONE HAS WALKED INTO THESE CLASSROOMS, IT IS ACTUALLY LIKE, QUITE APPALLING. AND TO HAVE LIKE A ROOM. YOU KNOW, HALF OF THIS SIZE OR, YOU KNOW, MAYBE THREE QUARTERS OF THIS SIZE, AND THEY HAVE FOUR DIFFERENT CLASSROOMS IN THERE. AND YOU HAVE ALL THESE TEACHERS TALKING AT THE SAME TIME. AND YOU KNOW YOU JUST LIKE, LOOK, SQUIRREL. I MEAN, IT WAS JUST VERY VERY HARD AND SO I JUST FEEL LIKE THERE'S SOMETHING THAT WE CAN DO. I MEAN, WE HAVE TO HAVE YOU KNOW, I KNOW WE'RE LOOKING FOR CONSTRUCTION SUPERVISOR, BUT WE HAVE TO HAVE SOMETHING THAT WE CAN DO IMMEDIATELY TO HELP, YOU KNOW, AND SO I REALLY FEEL STRONGLY ABOUT PUTTING THAT IN THE EL CAP. I DON'T KNOW IF THIS HAS BEEN BROUGHT UP BEFORE, BUT I ASKED, I SAID, IS THIS ALWAYS BEEN THIS WAY? AND THEY SAID YES, IT'S ALWAYS BEEN THIS WAY. AND YOU KNOW, IT WAS JUST IT WAS JUST COMPLETELY SHOCKING TO ME THAT YOU KNOW, AND I ASKED, I SAID, WHAT ARE YOUR SCORES LIKE? AND THEY SAID, WELL, OUR SCORES ARE LOW. AND SO I THINK, WELL, MAYBE OUR SCORES WOULD RISE IF THESE KIDS WOULD ACTUALLY CONCENTRATE. YOU KNOW WHEN YOU'RE NOT HAVING ALL OF THIS, YOU KNOW, DISTRACTION IN THE CLASSROOM, AND SO THAT WAS REALLY, REALLY. I LIKE I THINK YOU COULD PROBABLY SEE THE LOOK ON MY FACE. I WAS SO SHOCKED AND SO THAT THAT SHOULD BE REALLY ABOUT MOST IMPORTANCE TO OUR DISTRICT BECAUSE HOW CAN WE HAVE ALL THESE OTHER ELEMENTARY SCHOOL KIDS IN ONE CLASSROOM BEING TAUGHT, AND IT COULD BE QUIET AND PEACEFUL AND THEN AND WE HAVE THAT GOING ON AT TRAVIS RANCH. ONE OF THE THINGS WE WANT TO BRING BACK TO YOU IS, UM THE BOARD IS GIVEN A LOT OF GREAT IDEAS FOR HOW WE CAN IMPROVE THE DISTRICT. MANY OF THEM FACILITIES IMPROVEMENTS, MANY OF THEM PERSONNEL BASED, AND IT'S AH KIND OF GOES BACK TO INITIAL

[03:20:02]

CORRECT YES, YES, THAT THAT DRIVES EVERYTHING WE DO, ACTUALLY, YEAH. PIGGYBACKING ON MARYLAND'S DYSLEXIA, COMMENT BECAUSE I REMEMBER I THINK I HAVE BROUGHT IT UP A FEW MONTHS AGO, AND I THOUGHT, ISN'T THERE A SCHOOL IN ORANGE COUNTY THAT DEALS DIRECTLY WITH DYSLEXIA? YES AND I CAN'T REMEMBER BECAUSE I DRINK TOO MUCH DIET COKE IN MY TWENTIES, SO IT'S LIKE DONE SOMETHING IN MY BRAIN. BUT I CAN'T REMEMBER WHAT IT'S CALLED. BUT UM, BUT IT IS SOMETHING YOU'RE BUYING. A LOT OF TEACHERS HAVE SAID THAT IT IS LIKE THEY'VE ONLY SENT OF, YOU KNOW A FEW, AND THEY SAID THAT IT'S COME BACK AND THEY'VE BEEN ABLE TO, YOU KNOW, TO TEACH AND IT'S DONE WONDERS WITH THAT. AND SO JUST PIGGYBACKING ON YOURS AND THEN ANOTHER THING, TOO. I DON'T KNOW EXACTLY. I BROUGHT THIS UP. WITH THE WHOLE AND I'M NOT UM AND THIS IS JUST, YOU KNOW,

[03:25:06]

I DON'T SEE IT. I SEE CHRONIC ABSENTEEISM. I DON'T SEE DECLINING ENROLLMENT. IS THAT INTEGRATED INTO ONE OF THESE THAT'S NOT CALLED OUT SPECIFICALLY, IS THAT IT'S WELL , REMEMBER, WE FINANCE MARKETING . TO GET KIDS TO COME TO THE DISTRICT IS WHAT I'M SAYING.

IT'S ALL INTERTWINED, I THINK, REMEMBER, WE HAVE TO IDENTIFY AREAS OF GREATEST NEED BASED ON WHAT THE DASHBOARD IS REPORTING OUT. SO I MEAN HOW WE EMBED THAT AND, YOU KNOW, INCLUDE THAT YOU KNOW, AND I THINK I THINK IT'S ALL RELATED. RIGHT. I THINK IF WE'RE ADDRESSING A LOT OF THESE COMPONENTS THAT'S ULTIMATELY GOING TO UM, YOU KNOW, IMPACT ENROLLMENT, RIGHT? JUST CURIOUS WHY IT WASN'T ON THEIR TYPICALLY, THE DASHBOARD DEALS WITH THE STUDENTS. YOU HAVE I MEAN, HOW DO WE ADDRESSING THOSE STUDENTS NEEDS? JUST JUST TO YOUR POINT TO JUST LOOKING AT THE SCORES FOR TRAVIS LAND RANCH LAST YEAR, 72. A HALF PERCENT WERE PROFICIENT IN THE L. A.

60.75% PROFICIENT IN MATH AND AMONG THE HIGHER SCORES IN THE DISTRICT. ANOTHER THOUGHT WAS ALSO TOO IS AND IT'S WE. ARE WE GIVING, UM PRINCIPLES OF FREEDOM AT THEIR SITES LIKE BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY EVERY SINGLE SITE IS DIFFERENT, AND THEY HAVE DIFFERENT NEEDS, AND SO ARE THE PRINCIPLES ABLE TO MAKE THE DECISIONS LIKE LIKE WHEN YOU TALKED ABOUT EARLIER. YOU KNOW, SOME PEOPLE REALLY LIKE THEY FELT THAT, UM THE A R WAS GREAT FOR THEIR SCHOOL. ARE THEY GIVEN THAT OPPORTUNITY TO USE A R AND R SCHOOL? WHERE IS THIS NEXT PRINCIPAL SAYS? WELL, THAT'S NOT GOOD FOR MY SCHOOL. I WANT TO USE SOMETHING ELSE ARE WE GIVING OUR PRINCIPLES THAT TYPE OF THAT TYPE OF FREEDOM TO TRY WHAT'S BEST FOR THEIR SCHOOL? UM INSTEAD OF POSSIBLY, LIKE TRYING TO HAVE EVERYBODY ON THE SAME PATHWAY. IS THAT SOMETHING THAT WE DO OR IS IT SOMETHING WE CAN LOOK AT? I CAN SPEAK TO THAT. AND I'M GLAD YOU RAISED THAT BECAUSE IT WAS BROUGHT UP EARLIER THIS EVENING, AND SO SPECIFICALLY TO A R THAT WAS ACTUALLY SOMETHING BACK IN.

GOODNESS, I THINK IT WAS 2018 WHERE YOU KNOW, AT THE TIME WE NUMBER ONE. THERE WERE A COUPLE OF FACTORS AT PLAY WE WERE BRINGING IN IRONY WAS THE FIRST PIECE OF IT AND SO WE REALLY NEEDED EVERYONE TO BE ABLE TO ADOPT THAT AND COMMIT TO IT, AND WE WERE RECEIVING A LOT OF PARENT COMPLAINTS ABOUT A ARE FROM FROM FROM SEVERAL SCHOOLS AND PART OF THAT HAS TO DO WITH THE FACT THAT IT WAS BEING USED AS PART OF A GRADE WHICH IS NOT INTENDED TO BE. IT'S REALLY IT IS AN ENRICHMENT PROGRAM. IT'S MEANT TO INCENTIVE THAT IS READING AND SO AND IF USED PROPERLY, IT CAN ABSOLUTELY DO SO. BUT THAT WAS NOT WHAT WE WERE EXPERIENCING AT THAT TIME.

AND SO IT WAS MADE AT THE TIME. YOU KNOW, A DECISION THAT WAS MADE TO THAT WE WERE GOING TO DISCONTINUE USE OF A ARE ALLOWING US AND STUDENTS AND TEACHERS TO REALLY GET TO KNOW AND LEARN ALREADY. SO THAT WAS ONE OF THE REASONS BUT EVEN AT THAT POINT, IT WAS ALWAYS SOMETHING THAT YES, WE ALLOWED, YOU KNOW SCHOOLS TO USE IT WAS PAID FOR BY THE PTA, RIGHT? AND BUT AT THAT TIME YES, IT WAS. THAT WAS SORT OF A DISTRICT BY DECISION. FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND . I KNOW OF SOME SCHOOLS HAVE CONTINUED TO USE IT. AND WHEN WE DO FIND OUT ABOUT, YOU KNOW, THEN WE HAVE THAT CONVERSATION WITH THE PRINCIPLE BUT THAT YOU KNOW, IT'S THE REASONING. IT'S NEVER BEEN. AND ARE YOU MENTIONED EARLIER THAT IT WAS, YOU KNOW, WE WE'VE HAD SERVICES SAID IT WAS THE BOARD THAT DECIDED THAT IS ABSOLUTELY NEVER BEEN. YOU KNOW, SOMETHING THAT WE'VE SHARED. WE'VE WE TAKE RESPONSIBILITY OF THAT. I THINK YES, WE HAVE HAD CONVERSATIONS WITH TEACHERS WITH PRINCIPLES, DUSSEL. CONTINUE I THINK IT'S MAYBE ONE OR TWO. YOU KNOW WHO HAVE HAVE CONTINUED TO USE IT. IT'S ALWAYS SOMETHING THAT WE WOULD YOU KNOW, WE REMAIN OPEN TO BUT AGAIN, I THINK YOU KNOW, GOING BACK TO THE REASONS WE DID. IT WAS IT WAS IT WAS BEING USED ALSO AS A DISCIPLINARY AND FOR PUNISHMENT IN MANY WAYS, WITH SOME TEACHERS WERE KEEPING STUDENTS IN IF THEY DIDN'T REACH THEIR, YOU KNOW THEIR ALLOTMENT . AND SO THAT'S WHERE THE COMPLAINTS WERE COMING IN. AND ONCE AGAIN, THIS IS BACK IN 2018 WHEN THAT DECISION WAS MADE. AND IF WE WERE TO DECIDE TO GO BACK TO IT AND LOOK AT IT AS A AS A CONSIDERATION, I THINK WE WANT TO LOOK AT THE BIG PICTURE OF IT AND SEE WHAT OTHER PROGRAMS ARE IS NOT THE ONLY PROGRAM. THERE ARE OTHERS AT SOME SCHOOLS, YOU KNOW, WANT TO USE SO I THINK WE'D HAVE TO AGREE. AND WE

[03:30:01]

WE KNOW THEY SAT IN THE IN THE LIBRARY AND THEY READ THE BOOK AND THEN THE NEXT LIBRARY DATE.

THEY CAME BACK IN AND THEY DID THEIR TESTS. YOU KNOW, I'M NOT FOR OR AGAINST IT. I'M JUST SAYING THAT THERE ARE SO MANY TEACHERS WHO ARE ASKING FOR IT TO COME BACK. AND SO I SAID, I WOULD BRING IT FORWARD. WE APPRECIATE THAT. AND JUST ON THE TOPIC OF IRADIO KNOW THAT HAS BEEN AN ONGOING, YOU KNOW, SUBJECT AND WE, AS YOU KNOW, WE INCLUDED SOME OF THOSE QUESTIONS AGAIN IN THE SURVEY DATA, SO WE'RE LOOKING FORWARD TO RECEIVING THAT, AND WE'LL BE SHARING THAT YOU KNOW, WITH THE BOARD AS WELL. WHEN WE GET THOSE RESULTS, I THINK THAT WILL BE VERY TELLING ABOUT WHAT WE ARE LOOKING AT IT AS A POSSIBILITY FOR NEXT YEAR IS KEEPING IT AND REDUCING IT BACK TO JUST ELEMENTARY AND ARE USING THIS JUST THE DIAGNOSTIC, YOU KNOW, PORTION OF IT, AND SO THAT WAY, YOU KNOW, WE'RE STILL ABLE TO USE IT AS A PROGRESS MONITORING.

BUT NOT NECESSARILY INSTRUCTIONAL, PEACEFUL STUDENTS. SO THAT WAS, YOU KNOW.

JUST TAKING YOUR INPUT AND FEEDBACK THERE AS WELL. YEAH. I JUST, UM, WANTED TO ADD MY VOICE OVER HERE THAT IT SEEMS LIKE ALL THESE THESE SUPPLEMENT PROGRAMS . THEY ALL KIND OF TEND TO HAVE THE SAME KIND OF ISSUES. AND SO I JUST THINK WHATEVER. HOW ARE WE MOVE FORWARD. WE JUST REALLY NEED TO BE CLEAR WITH OUR POLICIES. HOW THESE PROGRAMS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE UTILIZED. AND JUST REAL CLEAR EXPECTATIONS FOR OUR TEACHERS. THERE'S NO YOU KNOW, WIGGLE ROOM AND THAT IT'S BEING MONITORED. AND SO THAT BECAUSE I HATE SEEING THESE GOOD PROGRAMS. BE MHM. WELL, NOT UNDERUTILIZED, BUT BEING, YOU KNOW, LIKE THEY SAY NEGATIVE CONNOTATIONS DIRECTED WITH THEM BECAUSE IT WAS MISUSED. AND. WHEN THEY ARE VALUABLE TOOLS. YOU KNOW, UM MY KIDS DID A ARE THEY LOVED IT. IT WAS A BIG PART OF OUR FAMILY GROWING UP. BUT I CAN SEE HOW IT COULD BE, YOU KNOW? MS UTILIZED, AND SO I JUST THINK WHATEVER. HOWEVER, WE MOVE FORWARD WITH THOSE TYPE OF THINGS THAT WE JUST REALLY HAVE TO HAVE CLEAR GUIDELINES. EXPECTATIONS SET SO THAT THEY'RE NOT MISUSED GREED. OKAY IS THAT I THINK I GAVE A LONG LIST OF THE LAST MEETING. AND I'M SURE YOU TOOK IT OUT. WE DO. WE CAPTURED IT. AND YES, INDEED. THANK YOU SO MUCH. THANK YOU SO MUCH. OKAY, FOLKS, MOVING ON. NT CALENDAR. THE ACTIONS PROPOSED FOR THE CONSENT COLOR ITEMS ARE

[CONSENT CALENDAR]

THE TRUSTEES RECEIVED BOARD AGENDA PACKET BACK UP INFORMATION. SORRY. IN ADVANCE OF THE SCHEDULED MEETINGS AND ARE PREPARED TO VOTE WITH KNOWLEDGE ON THE BLOC VOTE ITEMS. SO AT THIS TIME, ARE THERE ANY ITEMS THAT NEED TO BE PULLED? 18 AND 19. 18 AND 19.

OKAY FOR THE REMAINING ITEMS. I NEED EMOTION. I'LL MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE CONSENT CALENDAR SECOND. TRUSTEE ANDERSON AND TRUSTEE, FRASER SECONDED ALL THOSE IN FAVOR BY OKAY. FAVORITE OR FOUR. AND THE MOTION CARRIES FOR ZERO. OKAY THAT'S AH, TALK ABOUT NUMBER 18. OKAY I'LL MAKE

[18. Approve the memorandum of agreement with Pacific Oaks College from February 7, 2023 through February 6, 2026.]

[03:35:02]

SORRY, OKAY? UM HOW DID THEY COME TO US OR DID THEY JUST REACH OUT? WHAT HAPPENED? WE GET REQUESTS FROM UNIVERSITIES THROUGHOUT THE YEAR FOR A VARIETY OF REASONS. SOMETIMES IT'S THE UNIVERSITY ITSELF THAT IS AWARE OF THE PROGRAMS AND THE THINGS THAT WE OFFER, AND THEY WANT THEIR STUDENTS TO RECEIVE THAT. SOMETIMES THE STUDENT THEMSELVES HAVE A CONNECTION THERE, GRADUATE OF OUR DISTRICT AND ARE GOING THERE AND WANT TO COME BACK HOME. TO IMPLEMENT IT . SO IT'S FOR A VARIETY OF REASONS. SO THIS COULD JUST BE A COUPLE OF STUDENTS WHO WENT TO SCHOOL. OKAY, GOT IT.
