[PUBLIC HEARING]

NUMBER. TWO THE ANALYSIS SHOWS VERY MINIMAL SPILL LIGHT ALONG THE BACK FENCES OF THE PROPERTIES ALONG THE ALONG BROWER. WHAT HAPPENS TO THE NEIGHBORS OF THIS ANALYSIS IS INCORRECT. THIS PROJECT MOVES FORWARD. I PROPOSE YOU ADD A MITIGATION MEASURE FOR POST INSTALLATION LIGHT TESTING TO ENSURE THE LIGHT LEVELS ARE LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO THOSE SHOWN IN THE ANALYSIS AND THEN POST INSTALLATION TESTING. TO ENSURE THAT THE LIGHTS OPERATE AS DESIGNED IN LONGER TERM. NEXT QUESTION. A COUPLE OF STATEMENTS AND CONCLUSIONS IN SECTION FIVE

[00:45:01]

THOSE ARE WORDS THAT ADJACENT HOMEOWNERS NEVER WANT TO HEAR. WHEN TALKING ABOUT A PRACTICE IS OCCURRING RIGHT ALONG THEIR BACK FENCE. SORRY IS THAT THREE MONTHS, THREE MONTHS ALMOST DONE BASED ON MY UNDERSTANDING OF SICA, THE BOARD WILL EVENTUALLY BE ASKED TO MAKE A STATEMENT OF OVERRIDING CONSIDERATIONS WHICH WILL BASICALLY STATE THAT THIS PROJECT MATTERS MORE TO THE BOARD THAN IMPACTS OF THE COMMUNITY OR THE PEOPLE WHO LIVED THERE AND THEIR QUALITY OF LIFE. PLEASE CONSIDER CAREFULLY THEIR HAIR UP A BOOK IMPACTS. THIS PROJECT WILL HAVE A NEIGHBOR'S LONG BROWER. I'VE BEEN A GOOD NEIGHBOR WHO ARE ASKING YOU TO BE A GOOD NEIGHBOR. JUST BECAUSE YOU CAN IT DOESN'T MEAN YOU SHOULD AND JUST BECAUSE YOU CAN DOESN'T MAKE IT, RIGHT. THANK YOU, MISS TURNER. THANK YOU. MIKE TURNER. COME ON UP. TAKE A DIFFERENT APPROACH. EXTREME ESTEEM. SCHOOL DISTRICT OFFICIALS WOULD LIKE TO BRING IT TO YOUR ATTENTION MY CONCERNS REGARDING THE ELDORADO FIELD, WHICH IS LOCATED ONLY RELATIVELY SHORT DISTANCE FROM THE BEDROOM OF SEVERAL CHILDREN , AS WE KNOW A GOOD NIGHT'S SLEEP IS CRUCIAL FOR THE OVERWHELM OVERALL, WELL BEING OF CHILDREN, UNDERSTANDABLE. CENTURY HERBAL IN THE SCHOOL DISTRICT SHARES THIS VIEW, AS EVIDENCED BY RECENTLY AT THE RECENT DECISION TO START ELDORADO HIGH SCHOOL AT 8 30, ALLOWING HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS ADDITIONAL SLEEP. ACCORDING TO THE CENTER OF DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION, CHILDREN AGED 6 TO 12 REQUIRED 9 TO 12 HOURS OF SLEEP PER DAY IF AN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL STUDENT REQUIRED TO BE AT SCHOOL BY 7:50 A.M. THEY WOULD NEED TO WAKE UP AT SEVEN AM AT LEAST, HOWEVER, TO ENSURE THE CHILDREN IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD GET 12 HOURS OF SLEEP. THEY WOULD NEED TO BE IN BED BY 6:30 P.M. WE ALL KNOW THAT'S A TALL ORDER OF ITS OWN RIGHT. REASONABLE BEDTIME WOULD BE FOR A CHILD AGED 6 TO 12 B 6 30 TO 7 30 PM AS IT GIVES TIME TO UNWIND AND FALL ASLEEP. BUT IF THEY GO TO BED AT EIGHT PM, IS CURRENTLY ONLY POSSIBLE DUE TO THE EXCESSIVE FIELD NOISE. AND IT TURNED IN YOUR REPORT THE AMOUNT OF SLEEP THEY WOULD GET HIS ONLY 10.5 HOURS, WHICH IS ONLY THE MEDIAN. RECOMMENDED SLEEP. WHAT IF THEY CAN GO TO WHAT IF THEY CAN'T GO TO BED TILL 10 PM BECAUSE OF EXCESSIVE NOISE FROM THIS BUILD? IN THAT CASE, IT ONLY HAVE A CHANCE TO CAPTURE 18 HALF HOURS OF SLEEP. THIS IS BELOW THE CENTER OF DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION RECOMMENDATION HOURS OF SLEEP PER DAY. EVEN IF WE MOVE THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL SCHOOL START TIME TO 8 30 WERE ONLY STILL PROVIDING OUR CHILDREN BARE MINIMUM AMOUNT OF SLEEP. AS A COMMUNITY. WE SHOULD STRIVE TO CREATE POLICIES THAT ARE INCLUSIVE AND BENEFICIAL TO ALL YOUR ABILITIES. STUDENTS WHILE IT'S COMMENDABLE TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL AVAILABLE SLEEP TIME FOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS, THE DECISION TO SUBJECT YOUNGER STUDENTS TO EXCESSIVE NOISE LEVELS FROM ELDORADO FIELD AND REDUCING THE THEY'RE AVAILABLE. SLEEP HOURS IS NOT INCLUSIVE, NOT AN INCLUSIVE DECISION. WE MUST REMEMBER THAT OUR SCHOOL DISTRICT SERVES AS STUDENTS OF ALL AGES. AND THEIR DECISION WE MAKE OR YOU MAKE. SHOULD BE MINDFUL OF ITS IMPACT ON ALL POTENTIAL HERBAL INTO STUDENTS.

ARGUE TO RECONSIDER YOUR DECISION. HI. MY NAME IS SHANNON MURRAY AND I'M JUST GOING TO PREFACE THIS WITH MY COMMENT IS BASED ON THE PRESENTATION THAT WAS GIVEN AT THE LAST MEETING, I WHICH I THOUGHT WOULD HAVE MET WITH NEIGHBORS SUCH AS THE COMMENTS WE JUST HEARD. SO I HEAR YOU. UM BUT I JUST WAS GOING TO SAY THAT I SUPPORT GETTING FIELD LIGHTS AT EL DORADO AFTER THE PRESENTATION ON THIS ISSUE WITH THE LAST BOARD MEETING. I THOUGHT THE MAIN OBSTACLE WAS NOISE POLLUTION. BUT WHEN PRESSED ON THE ISSUE, THE PRESENTER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT

[00:50:04]

MEASUREMENTS WERE TAKEN FROM GROUND LEVEL AND DON'T TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION. LIGHT TRESPASS INTO SECOND STORY BEDROOM WINDOWS THAT WOULD BE MOST EFFECTED. LASTLY THE AESTHETICS OF THE PROJECT OR ANOTHER ASPECT THAT IS UNDERESTIMATED. THE REALITY IS A GIANT 80 FT LIGHT POLES BEING PROPOSED OR A TOTAL EYESORE. NOT JUST FOR THE IMMEDIATELY ADJACENT NEIGHBORS, BUT FOR ALL NEIGHBORING PROPERTY OWNERS AND CITIZENS THAT DRIVE ALONG BROOKHAVEN BROWER AVENUES.

HAVE SOME ADDITIONAL POINTS. THAT UH, MY HUSBAND, NICK, WILL BE FOLLOWING UP WITH THANK YOU.

OKAY NEXT UP. NICK MATTHEWS, CRAIG FULMER. PAUL. PART GETTY IS THAT CORRECT? AND COLEMAN. I THINK THAT'S BALMER. NICK, YOU'LL BE A FIRST STEP. THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING US TO SPEAK, SOME CONTINUING OFF WHERE HEATHER WAS SO ANOTHER CONSIDERATION THAT WE HAVE WITH IS THE RISING PRICE OF ENERGY COSTS. ESSENTIALLY WE'RE BEING ROBBED OF THE ABILITY TO HAVE OUR WINDOWS OPEN AT NIGHT AND TO ENJOY A COLD BREEZE IN OUR HOMES WITHOUT HAVING TO USE THE AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM. UM OBVIOUSLY IN THE WINTERTIME, THAT'S NOT GOING TO BE AS MUCH OF AN IMPACT. BUT DURING THE SPRING AND SUMMER TIME AND THEN AUGUST AND YOU KNOW THOSE MUNSTER IS GOING TO BE VERY IMPACTFUL FOR US. THE NOISE IMPACTS MAKE IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR US TO KEEP OUR HOMES QUIET ENOUGH TO PUT OUR TODDLER AND ARE SOON TO BE FUTURE CHILD TO BED AT A REASONABLE TIME, ALSO, THAT THEY'RE NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO SLEEP BEYOND SEVEN A.M.

[00:55:03]

R. LASTLY THIS PROJECT IS SIMPLY NOT NECESSARY. THE FIELD IS ALREADY USED ESSENTIALLY FULL TIME WITH SOCCER OR FOOTBALL PRACTICE USING THE EXISTING FACILITIES. WHY SHOULD THESE SPORTS WHICH ARE SIGNIFICANTLY LESS IMPACTFUL TO THE SURROUNDING COMMUNITIES IN TERMS OF NOISE BE DISPLACED JUST SO THAT THE BAND CAN PRACTICE HERE WHEN THEY'RE ALREADY DOING SO IN THE MORNINGS WON'T THAT JUST MEAN A DIFFERENT SET OF STUDENTS WILL HAVE TO COMMUTE FOR THEIR PRACTICE? THANK CONCLUSION THE MAJORITY OF THESE VERY SIGNIFICANT AND POWERFUL CONCERNS ARE TIED DIRECTLY TO THE PROPOSED INCREASE IN BAND PRACTICE ON THE FIELD ON THE PLAYING FIELD IN THE EVENING HOURS AND THROUGHOUT LONGER PERIODS OF THE YEAR. NO PART OF THIS PROJECT SHOULD BE IMPLEMENTED AS IT PREVENTS A SIGNIFICANT, UNAVOIDABLE PROBLEM FOR THE SURROUNDING COMMUNITY WITH VERY LIMITED BENEFIT FOR THE SCHOOL. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

THANK YOU BOARD. MY NAME IS CRAIG FULMER. PROBABLY THE LONGEST. RESIDENT OF ELDORADO NOW. EVEN IF A BOARD MEMBER THAT PLAYED FOOTBALL WITH ONE OF MY KIDS, SO I'VE BEEN AROUND A LONG TIME. AND I COULD GO ON FOR A LONG TIME ON THIS, UM 80 FT POLES BEHIND PEOPLE'S HOUSES, AND BY THE WAY THEY'RE GOING TO BE 10 OR 12 FT BEHIND THEIR HOUSE. THESE ARE NOT SETBACKS LIKE VALENCIA HIGH SCHOOL OR OR YOUR BELINDA, THIS IS LITERALLY IN THEIR BACKYARD. THE LIGHT WASH. ON THE OTHER SIDE. YOU'RE ONLY TALKING 55 YARDS AND THEY'RE LIGHTING THE WHOLE FIELD THAT WASH IS GOING TO COME INTO ALL OF THESE HOUSES. SECOND FLOOR THAT THE ONE LADY MENTIONED THERE. I MEAN, IT'S UNCONSCIONABLE, BUT THAT THIS WOULD EVEN BE CONSIDERED. I LISTENED TO THE BAND THE 1ST 12 YEARS WE LIVED THERE. I LEARNED TO VIDA LIKE THE BACK OF MY HAND FROM LISTENING THOSE GUYS MARCH AT 10 IN THE SEVEN IN THE MORNING AND CAME RIGHT AT MY HOUSE. YOU KNOW, IT WAS INCREDIBLE. BUT WHATEVER YOU KNOW, I BOUGHT THE HOUSE THERE.

THIS IS DIFFERENT. YOU KNOW, THIS IS PUTTING SOMETHING IN THAT. YOU KNOW? WE GOT NO PART OF THIS. THIS IS THIS IS AFTER THE FACT KIND OF THING. IF YOU'RE A GOLFER, YOU GO TO YOUR BUT YOU'RE GONNA BLACK GOLD, THOSE LIGHT POLES THAT ARE BEHIND THE DRIVING RANGE THERE.

LIGHTING EVERYTHING UP. THOSE ARE 80 FT. TALL. IT'S THE SAME LIGHTS WE'RE TALKING ABOUT HERE.

BUT IT WAS INTERESTING IN THE YOU KNOW, IN THE LETTER THAT YOU SENT OUT YOUR TALKED ABOUT KIDS HAVING GO OFF CAMPUS TO PRACTICE. WELL IN 2000 AND I WENT TO THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION IN 7 4008. ELDORADO HAD 2600 KIDS. YOUR BLEND OF HIGH SCHOOL OPENED IN 2009. I BELIEVE IT DECLINED EVERY YEAR, THEN UNTIL 2016 WHEN IT GOT TO 1800 STUDENTS AT ELDORADO. RIGHT NOW. IT'S 74% OF THE PEAK STUDENT POPULATION THAT IT WAS THIS YEAR AT 672 LESS STUDENTS.

THE PEAK TIME. THERE'S PLENTY OF FIELD TIME FOR THESE KIDS TO PRACTICE. WE DO NOT NEED PERMANENT LIGHTS BACK THERE, DISRUPTING OUR NEIGHBORHOOD AND SEVERELY IMPACTING OUR PROPERTY VALUES. CANDIDLY THAT'S GOING TO BE A MAJOR MAJOR ISSUE AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED. AND THEN YOU KNOW THE LAST THING THAT YOU KNOW, I THOUGHT ON THIS THING WAS YOU KNOW TO ME, YOU GUYS ARE LOOKING FOR A SOLUTION TO A PROBLEM THAT DOESN'T EXIST. AND WE'RE LOOKING ABOUT SPENDING TAXPAYER DOLLARS THAT DON'T NEED TO BE SPENT. YOU CAN DIRECT THEM SOMEWHERE ELSE. WE DON'T NEED TO SPEND THE MONEY ON THIS PROBLEM THAT'S GOING TO JUST TOTALLY DISRUPT OUR LIVES. THAT'S ALL I GOT. PAUL. OKAY.

GOOD EVENING. I WANT TO EXPRESS THAT I OPPOSED THE LIGHTING PROJECT AT ELDORADO HIGH SCHOOL.

THE E I R DOCUMENTS THE NEGATIVE IMPACTS ON THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND THERE'S LOTS TO SAY ABOUT IT, AND I'LL MAKE THIS TRY TO MAKE THIS BRIEF AND WANT TO ADDRESS THE BOARD DIRECTLY. AND THIS IS THE FIRST SCHOOL BOARD MEETING THAT I HAVE ATTENDED. LIKE MANY PARENTS, I BECAME CONCERNED AND ENGAGED OVER THE COVID ISSUES, AND I'VE LISTENED TO SOME PAST MEETINGS ONLINE. I WANTED TO REMIND YOU OF ONE OF THE SCHOOL BOARD MEETINGS AT A YOU HAD A DEBATE. SOMETIME IN THE LAST

[01:00:06]

AND I PLAN TO FOLLOW UP WITH SOME MORE WRITTEN COMMENTS. BUT I HOPE YOU CONSIDER THE NEIGHBORS AND THEIR ISSUES AND, UM AGAIN, I THINK YOU KNOW THE GOAL OF THIS DISTRICT SHOULD BE COOPERATION AND NOT CONFLICT. THANK YOU. HELLO MY NAME IS COLE BARNER AND I'VE BEEN A RESIDENT ON BROWER AVENUE DIRECTLY BEHIND FIELD NOW FOR 28 YEARS. AND I CAN SAY WITHOUT RESERVATION THAT THE. PARTICULARLY THE NOISE POLLUTION IS GOING TO BE HIGHLY DETRIMENTAL TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

UM, THE HIGH SCHOOL ALREADY. DOESN'T FOLLOW THE NOISE ORDINANCE REGULATIONS AS HAVE BEEN BROUGHT UP BY SEVERAL OTHER PEOPLE. YOU KNOW PEOPLE STUDENTS OUT ON THE FIELD PRIOR TO SEVEN AM ALREADY MAKING NOISE. COACH IS NOT YEAH. STUDENTS YELLING LOUDLY. DURING THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY. UM PEOPLE BRINGING IN PORTABLE P A SYSTEMS FOR THEIR EVENTS. SO THERE ISN'T ANY TRUST THERE. AND I DON'T SEE HOW I THINK THE NEWEST POLLUTION WILL BE EVEN WORSE THAN IT IS DESCRIBED IN THE DOCUMENT. BECAUSE AFTER EVENTS, PEOPLE HAVE A TENDENCY TO LOITER AROUND TILL MAYBE 11 12 MIDNIGHT. WE'LL CONTINUE TO MAKE NOISE SO I JUST DON'T REALLY SEE THIS. I DON'T SEE HOW I DON'T SEE THE SCHOOL. BEING ABLE TO ENFORCE THE NOISE ORDINANCE. IT'S EVEN IN THE PROPOSAL. AND, UH, AND ALSO LIKE TO POINT OUT THAT THE NEIGHBORHOOD IN THE SCHOOL.

LITERALLY. DEVELOPED IT ALMOST THE SAME TIME. AND I DON'T SEE AND AT LEAST. THE NEIGHBORHOOD HAD SHOULD HAVE AT LEAST EQUAL RIGHTS TO THE SCHOOL. BUT I DON'T SEE THAT IN THIS PROPOSAL AT ALL. THIS IS ALL THE EVERYTHING IN THE PROPOSAL WILL BE NEGATIVE TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND WILL DESTROY PROPERTY VALUES AS WELL AS PEOPLE'S ABILITY. TO YOU KNOW, ESPECIALLY WITH CHILDREN TO GET THE PROPER REST FOR THEIR CHILDREN, THEIR KIDS. THAT'S WHAT I'D LIKE TO SAY.

THANKS. OKAY THANK YOU, FOLKS. AT WHAT'S UH, GIVES US A LOT TO CONSIDER.

SO THANK YOU FOR SHARING. OKAY. AT THIS POINT, WE'RE GOING TO MOVE ON. UH, I'M GONNA GO AHEAD

[PUBLIC COMMENT]

[01:15:09]

AND LINDA MANNION. SO YOUR FIRST. YES, MA'AM. HELLO BOARD. MY NAME IS SUE SAWYER. I TEACH AT ESPERANZA HIGH SCHOOL. AH! I HAVE QUESTIONS. SO UH, I TRY TO USE THIS AS A PLACE TO GET QUESTIONS, BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW WE GET THE QUESTIONS ANSWERED WHEN THE BOARD MEETING IS OVER, AND I COMPLETELY RESPECT THAT WE CAN'T DIALOGUE. SO I WOULD LIKE SOME CLARIFICATION SOMEHOW ABOUT HOW WE GET RESPONSES TO THAT. UM . ONE WAS ABOUT THE POTENTIAL CALENDAR CHANGE THAT CAME IN ONE OF THE BOARD MEETINGS. WE'VE HAD A LOT IN APRIL. AND THERE WERE SOME DISCUSSIONS ABOUT THAT. BUT I JUST WANTED THE BOARD TO KNOW THAT HOPE UNIVERSITY WORKED WITH 62 DISTRICTS IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA, AND OURS IS THE ONLY ONE ON A DIFFERENT CALENDAR FROM ALL 62 THAT THEY WORK WITH. SO PLEASE CONSIDER THAT BECAUSE OF THE IMPACT THAT IT HAS ON KIDS AND SPORTS PROGRAMS AND TRANSPORTATION EVEN FINANCIALLY WHEN GAMES ARE BEFORE OUR SCHOOL YEAR STARTS. SECOND. PRIOR TO A BOOK BEING APPROVED FOR PILOTING CURRENTLY, A TEACHER, A SUBJECT MATTER EXPERT MUST FILL OUT AN EXTENSIVE QUESTIONNAIRE ABOUT A BOOK THEY WANT PILOTED. THEY MUST SAY WHAT LESSONS THEY WOULD TEACH AND HOW IT CONNECTS TO THE CALIFORNIA STATE STANDARDS. AND I COULD BE TOTALLY WRONG BECAUSE I'M NOT QUITE SURE OF THE TOTAL PROCESS. I BELIEVE IT THEN GOES TO ED SERVICES FOR REVIEW TO SEE IF ALL QUESTIONS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED THOROUGHLY. AND THEN IT GOES, UH TO A LIT REVIEW. THEN IT'S VOTED ON IF A NEW PROCESSES VOTED IN BY THE BOARD, WHICH WE'VE HEARD SOME MORE OF THAT THE BOARD WOULD APPROVE ANY BOOKS FOR PILOTING, WHO WOULD BE THE SUBJECT MATTER. EXPERTS IN THAT FIRST DETERMINATION FOR THE BOOKS UM AND WHO WILL THEN CONNECT THEM DURING THIS PROCESS BEFORE IT EVEN GOES TO PILOT FOR CONTINUITY TO CALIFORNIA STATE STANDARDS. UM. ANOTHER QUESTION ABOUT CHARTER SCHOOLS IS HOW WILL THE BOARD ENSURE THAT CHARTER SCHOOLS APPROVED BY THE DISTRICT IF THAT WERE TO HAPPEN IN THE FUTURE ARE COMMITTED TO ADMITTING AND SUPPORTING STUDENT POPULATIONS THAT REFLECT THE DISTRICT? DEMOGRAPHIC MAKEUP? THANK YOU, MISS SORRY. MY NAME IS ANDY FALCO HAVE TWO SUBJECTS . ONE OF THEM IS FOR OVER THREE YEARS. I'VE BEEN INVESTIGATING THE TEACHERS UNIONS BETWEEN THE C T A. THE N E, A AND THE A P L E. AND ESSENTIALLY AS WE'VE LEARNED OVER THESE YEARS AS THEY'VE BEEN A SOURCE OF MUCH OF THE PROBLEMS THAT WE'VE HAD IN THE SCHOOLS WITH WHETHER IT WAS THE MASKING OR C, R T S C L D E I ARGUMENTS THAT WE'VE HAD HERE IN THE IN THE SCHOOL BOARD AND THE SCHOOL DISTRICT. THAT HAVE BEEN, UM PROPAGATED BY THESE CABAL AND MY QUESTION IS, IS THAT WE HAVE THE LEADERSHIP OF A PLE. THAT, UM IS LISTED AS A TEACHER, LINDA MANNION IS A TEACHER THAT'S GETTING PAID $160,000 A YEAR. BY THE P Y EL USD, BUT SHE'S A REPRESENTATIVE , THE TEACHERS UNION. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY WE'RE SPENDING THAT AMOUNT OF MONEY ON SOMEBODY WHO'S NOT A TEACHER, BUT YET CALLING HER TEACHER SO IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE TO ME, SO I WANT TO MAKE SURE AND BRING THAT UP. THE OTHER THING IS, WE HAVE SOME SERIOUS PROBLEMS IN THE SCHOOLS AND PARTICULARLY ELDORADO, WITH NARCOTICS USE IN THE BATHROOMS AND ON THE BRAKES AT SCHOOL AND CHILDREN HAVING SEX IN THE BATHROOMS. THESE ARE THINGS I HAVE THREE CHILDREN, TWO CHILDREN IN ELDORADO AND ONE THAT'S GOING TO BE ENTERING ELDORADO AND, UM, I MY SON PLAYS ON LACROSSE, THEIR CHEERLEADERS . WE HAVE A LARGE NUMBER OF CHILDREN THAT ARE AT OUR HOME. WHERE THE STORIES ARE SHARED. CONSTANTLY AND WE ARE DOING SOMETHING WRONG WHERE WE'RE ALLOWING KIDS TO LEAVE THEIR CLASSROOMS TO GO TO THE BATHROOM

[01:25:01]

THANK YOU. PLACENTIA YORBA LINDA EDUCATORS. YOU ARE CHANGING THE WORLD. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MA'AM. OUR NEXT FOUR SPEAKERS, JUDY REESE. MARISSA MULROY. SHANI MURRAY. AND SARAH PHILLIPS. TWO. SO I KNEW THAT LOWER WELCOME, DOCTOR TURNESS. I AM A MEMBER WITH COMMUNITY, BUT I'M ALSO ONE OF THE TEACHERS HERE AT L. U. S T TEACH KINDERGARTEN AT GLENDALE. AND I THOUGHT MAYBE I'D BE THE ONLY ONE TALKING ABOUT CHARTER SCHOOLS. SO THANK YOU FOR THAT NICE INTRODUCTION ON CHARTER SCHOOLS. I UM, GOT SOME INFORMATION FROM THE LAW OFFICES. UM THAT PROPOSED THESE CHARTERS ON OUR CAMPUSES THAT WERE ACTUALLY BE ON OUR CAMPUSES. AND UM, I FELT LIKE I FELL INTO ALICE'S RABBIT HOLE. AS I STARTED TO TRY AND INVESTIGATE THIS. LIKE WHAT DOES AN IN LIEU AGREEMENT MEAN APPARENTLY MEANS IN PLACE OF SO IT DOESN'T REALLY MEAN ANYTHING. UM, WHAT IS PROPOSITION? 39? WELL, WHAT I COULD FIND AT LEAST, UM, SAID THAT YOU HAVE TO PROVIDE. THE SAME FACILITIES, BUT NOT ON OUR FACILITIES SO WE DON'T HAVE TO SHARE OUR CAMPUSES WITH THE CHARTER SCHOOL. I, FRANKLY CAN'T SEE AS A TEACHER OUT OF SCHOOL HOW THAT CAN EVEN BEGIN TO WORK. HOW DO YOU SHARE LIBRARIES? HOW DO YOU SHARE COMPUTER LABS? HOW DO YOU SHARE FIELDS? HOW DO YOU SHARE LUNCH ROOMS? HOW DOES THAT WORK? UM I FEEL LIKE AS I STARTED TO INVESTIGATE THIS MORE AND MORE I WAS JUST LEFT WITH MORE AND MORE AND MORE QUESTIONS. I REALLY HOPE THAT OUR BOARD IS NOT CONSIDERING. BRINGING CHARTER SCHOOLS HOPEFULLY NOT INTO OUR DISTRICT BECAUSE, AS YOU SAID, WE OFFER EVERYTHING HERE AND WE ARE EXCELLENT SCHOOLS, AND WE DON'T NEED CHARTER SCHOOLS TO MEET THE NEEDS OF OUR STUDENTS.

BUT IN ADDITION TO THAT, TO THINK THAT YOU WOULD BRING THEM ON THE CAMPUSES WITH TEACHERS HERE WITH OUR STUDENTS IS INSULTING TO TEACHERS. AND I'M ALSO GOING TO ADD THAT THE OUR APPLE UNION DOESN'T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH ALL THOSE NASTY THINGS THAT OUR FRIEND REFERRED TO ARE THERE. THANK YOU, MA'AM. THE NAME. HELLO. MY NAME IS MARISSA MALLORY. UM MY KIDS TIME IN PEE WEE ELLIS ALMOST AT MY DAUGHTER GRADUATES IN JUNE SEVEN YEARS OF THE HIGH SCHOOLS HERE, UM, WE CHOSE TO PUT OUR SON INTO A PRIVATE HIGH SCHOOL AFTER THE CONSTANT BATTLES THAT SEEMED TO BE CO HEARING EVERY DAY FOR BASIC SERVICES IN THIS DISTRICT. JUST TWO WEEKS AGO OR NOT BEEN TWO WEEKS AGO. FLETCHER DECIDED TO HOST THEIR SENIOR DISTINGUISHED SCHOOL ARE DISTINGUISHED SCHOLAR NIGHT THE SAME NIGHT AS ALL OF THE SPRING LEAGUE PRELIMS FINALS. KIDS WHO LOST THEIR SPRING SEASON WERE SENT HOME DURING COVID MARCH, 13TH 2020 HAD TO CHOOSE BETWEEN CELEBRATING THEIR ACADEMICS ARE CELEBRATING THEIR ATHLETICS. AND I WAS TOLD BY MR LOUIS THAT IT WAS THE DISTRICT'S FAULT. BECAUSE THE DISTRICT IS THE ONE WHO SCHEDULES THE CALENDAR AND SCHEDULE THE FACILITIES AT VALENCIA HIGH SCHOOL. SO THEN I STARTED WONDERING ABOUT ALL THIS CHAOS. AND WATCH THE UPROAR AND THE MISINFORMATION ABOUT THE CHARTER SCHOOLS. AND I BEGAN TO WONDER WHY PEOPLE AREN'T LOOKING AT WHY THESE CHARTER SCHOOLS WANT TO COME INTO P Y L WHAT THEY AND WHITE PARENTS MIGHT WANT THEM HERE. WHAT ARE THOSE CHARTER SCHOOLS OFFERING? L ISN'T AND HOW COULD L TAKE THAT? MERGE IT WITH WHAT THEY DO WELL AND CREATE A CONVERSION CHARTER. THEIR OWN CHARTER SCHOOL HERE WITH THEIR OWN TEACHERS. IT IS POSSIBLE I'M A 23 YEAR CHARTER SCHOOL TEACHER AT A CONVERSION CHARTER HERE IN ORANGE COUNTY.

AND IT'S AMAZING. THE TEACHERS WHEN THEY BECAME A CHARTER DECIDED. FIRST OF ALL, THEY'RE ALL UNION. OH, YOU EA AND ALL OF THAT. THEY DECIDED TO RETAIN THEIR UNION MEMBERSHIP. AND WHEN THEY BECAME A CHARTER, THEY DECIDED TO KEEP THE ABILITY TO REJOIN THE DISTRICT IF THEY WANTED TO. I WAS HIRED AFTER THE CHARTER BEGAN, SO I DIDN'T HAVE THAT. BUT THERE'S OTHER OPPORTUNITIES OUT THERE. INSTEAD OF JUST SAYING NO CHARTER. WE NEED TO INVESTIGATE THE OTHER

[01:30:04]

EVENTUALLY SEAN YOUNGBLOOD RESPONDED AND SAID QUOTE WE WILL BE PROVIDED A PRESENTATION BY THE CIA IN THE MAY 9TH MEETING FOR THE BOARD TO MAKE INFORMED DECISIONS, UNQUOTE. THEN I SAW A COPY OF THE ASSISI A PROPOSAL WHICH SOMEONE HAD PAINT OBTAINED THROUGH A RECORDS. PUBLIC RECORDS REQUEST. AND THEN I READ A RELATED ARTICLE IN THE ORANGE COUNTY REGISTER. I WAS CONCERNED , SO I CREATED A PETITION ASKING THE BOARD TO PRIORITIZE L STUDENTS AND KEEP US THE COMMUNITY INFORMED ABOUT THE POTENTIAL TAKEOVER OF SCHOOL FACILITIES BY A CHARTER PROGRAM.

MORE THAN 1000 COMMUNITY MEMBERS SHARE MY CONCERN. LAST THURSDAY , SHAUN BACKTRACKED AND SAID IN AN EMAIL THAT THERE WOULD NOT BE A PRESENTATION TONIGHT. BUT THAT QUOTE MORE THAN LIKELY THE BOARD WILL CONSIDER INFORMATION THEY RECEIVED IN THE JUNE BOARD MEETING UNQUOTE SO ON BEHALF OF EVERYONE WHO SIGNED MY PETITION, I'M ASKING FOR FULL TRANSPARENCY RELATED TO ANY CHARTER PROGRAM AND FOR THE BOARD TO PRIORITIZE THE NEEDS OF OUR STUDENTS AND SCHOOLS. THANK YOU. AND IF THE BOARD'S INTERESTING I HAD TO GO TO THE ACTUAL PETITION. THANK YOU. GOT ANYTHING. AH, GOOD EVENING, EVERYONE. I'M SARAH PHILLIPS. TEACHER LIBRARIAN YORBA LINDA HIGH SCHOOL.

AND LIKE SOME OF THE OTHER COMMENTS, UM MINE IS IN REGARDS TO THE CHARTER SCHOOLS. I READ THE ARTICLE THAT CAME OUT IN THE ORANGE COUNTY REGISTER. AND UM, IT WAS DATED AT THE END OF APRIL AND THEN UPDATED ON MAY 1ST. MY CONCERN HAS MORE TO DO. WITH WHAT APPEARS TO BE VERY RUSHED PROCESS THAN ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE CHARTER SCHOOL PER SE. I DON'T KNOW ENOUGH AT THIS POINT, WHETHER OR NOT A CHARTER SCHOOL IS A GOOD THING OR A BAD THING IN THIS DISTRICT. BUT I DO KNOW THAT ANYTHING INVOLVING EDUCATION MUST NOT BE RUSHED. IT MUST BE WELL THOUGHT IT MUST BE DESIGNED PROPERLY. I AM AN EDUCATOR MYSELF AND I HAVE GONE THROUGH THIS PROCESS CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT AND I KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE, AND I KNOW THAT ANY TIME YOU CHANGE ANY ASPECT LOTS OF THINGS NEED TO BE CONSIDERED BECAUSE THERE COULD BE A DOMINO EFFECT. WHAT I AM ASKING IS THAT IF IN FACT THIS IS SOMETHING THE DISTRICT IS CONSIDERING THAT THEY SHARE AND BE TRANSPARENT WITH THE FULL COMMUNITY. LET US KNOW WHAT YOU ARE THINKING. AND PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE DO NOT RUSH THIS. THIS IS NOT SOMETHING THAT SHOULD BE DONE IN HASTE AND WITHOUT LOTS OF THOUGHTFULNESS. THANK YOU. GOOD EVENING TO THE

ABSOLUTELY WE'RE NOT GOING TO DO SO BECAUSE MAKING SOME ARBITRARY DECISION. SO I KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE FEELING THAT FEELING LIKE THE BOARD'S ACTING IN AN ARBITRARY MANNER, BUT THAT JUST WASN'T THE CASE AT ALL. IF YOU JUST LOOK AT THE MINUTES, THAT'S NOT WHAT HAPPENED AT ALL. SO LIKE I SAID, THIS IS A MESSAGE. EVEN FOR MYSELF. I THOUGHT THAT THERE WAS AN ARBITRARY DECISION BEING MADE BY, UM, A BOARD MEMBER PRESIDENT BACK AT THE TIME WHEN SHE CANCELED A MEETING TWO MINUTES INTO IT.

MY ISSUE IS BASICALLY THE LIGHTS. I'M ASSUMING. SINCE THIS IS THE FOURTH MEETING I'M HAVING ON THIS EITHER AT ELDORADO OR HERE. THAT YOU'VE. DOTTED ALL YOUR TEASED AND CROSSED ALL YOUR EYES AND YOU'RE PRETTY MUCH READY TO GO. SO I'M GONNA GIVE YOU KIND OF WHAT I SEE ON IT, AND THAT IS BASICALLY IT'S ALL BULL. UM.

I USED TO TAKE MY KID TO VALENCIA HIGH SCHOOL. MY KID PLAYED SOCCER. AT ELDORADO HIGH SCHOOL. UM DID STUFF OVER THERE AND PRACTICE ON THAT AS FAR AS THE WINTER SPORTS AND THE LIGHTS AND ALL THAT SORT OF STUFF GOES. I DON'T MIND WHERE MY TAX DOLLARS GO AS FAR AS THIS MAKE IT QUICK. UM AS FAR AS MY TAX DOLLARS GO IF IT GOES TO SUPPORTING THE YOUTH HERE.

AND IT'S FOR PUBLIC STUFF OR WHATEVER. THAT'S ONE THING. BUT THE LIGHTS ARE ON PAST EIGHT O'CLOCK WITHOUT A DOUBT. I WILL CALL YOU PERSONALLY, YOU CAN COME TO MY HOUSE AND SEE WHEN THE LIGHTS ARE ON AFTER EIGHT OR I'D LIKE SOMEBODY'S NUMBER TO CALL IF IT BE THE POLICE DEPARTMENT OR SOMETHING. WHEN THOSE LIGHTS DON'T GO OFF AT EIGHT. I KNOW YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT GOING PAST. UM THAT'S UNACCEPTABLE. THE ONLY PEOPLE THAT USE THOSE LIGHTS I'LL BE HONEST WITH YOU IS A FOR PROFIT . UH CLUB SOCCER TEAM. I'VE NEVER SEEN THE FOOTBALL TEAM SOCCER TEAM, THE BAND AND ALL THAT STUFF. WHEN'S THAT? I'M SORRY. WELL. SO THEY CAN RUN SOCCER. BUT THE BAND CAN'T MARCH OR WHATEVER, UNDER THE SAME LIGHTS, I GUESS IS WHAT SHE'S SAYING, WHICH IS A BUNCH OF BULL. SO MY THING IS I LIVE RIGHT THERE AND THAT YOU DO GO PAST EIGHT O'CLOCK, SO I WOULD LIKE SOMEBODY'S NUMBER TO CALL IF NOBODY'S GONNA BE ENFORCING IT. NOBODY'S GONNA BE LOCKING THAT GATES. GET THEM OFF AT EIGHT O'CLOCK. THANK YOU, SIR.

SINGING AND DANCING, AND, UM, THEY HAD FIFTH GRADE STUDENTS. THEY'RE BEING THE M. C. S. AND UM THEY WERE INTRODUCING ALL THE ACTS AND GUESTS IN ENGLISH AND SPANISH AND THEY JUST DID AN OUTSTANDING JOB AND, UM, THEY WERE VERY IMPRESSIVE. AND THEN ALSO, THERE WAS THIS SO FAR.

MINISTRY THERE, UM. SO FAR, MINISTRY THERE THEY WERE SHARING , UM KOREAN DRUMMING, BUT THE COMMUNITY AND SO THAT WAS GREAT. UM, I JUST WANT TO THANK THERE WAS TONS OF VOLUNTEERS THERE.

THE STAFF THE PRINCIPLE EVERYBODY FOR MAKING THAT NIGHT A REALITY FOR THE COMMUNITY, AND IT WAS REALLY FUN. I ALSO, UM AS YOU KNOW, UM, PARTICIPATED IN LOVE PLACENTIA EVENT. UM AND I JUST WANTED TO HIT A COUPLE HIGHLIGHTS WE HAD OVER 600 VOLUNTEERS. VOLUNTEERING AT 33 SITES THROUGH THE CITY OF PLACENTA. UM IT HAPPENED TO BE EARTH DAY AND IT WAS KIND OF INTERESTING TO ME THAT WE MOVED 87 TONS. UM, MULCH. UM. ALL THROUGHOUT THE CITY. IT'S A CITY PARKS SCHOOLS. UM, NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION. ETCETERA. SO UM, WE ALL GOT A LITTLE STRONGER THAT DAY. UM A COUPLE OTHER HIGHLIGHTS. WE DID 218 HOMELESS KIDS, 40, PLUS BLANKETS AND, UM

[02:10:10]

[02:15:06]

THAT'S GREAT. THERE IS, HOWEVER , SOMETHING THAT I SEEM TO BE SENSING AS A THEME THAT I HOPE WITH DOCTOR TURNS AT THE HELM, WE CAN ADDRESS SOME OF THE ISSUES IN RELATED TO ACCOUNTABILITY. WHEN WE SAY WE'RE GOING TO DO A THING WE DO THE THING. SEVERAL ARE OF THE OF THE COMPLAINTS THAT WE'VE HEARD ABOUT THE LIGHTS IS MOSTLY BECAUSE WE'VE SAID WE'RE GOING TO DO A THING AND WE DON'T DO THAT THING. UM SEVERAL TALKING. I'VE TALKED TO COACHES AND PRINCIPALS AND TEACHERS THAT ARE FRUSTRATED BECAUSE WE SAY WE'RE GOING TO DO A THING, BUT WE DON'T FOLLOW UP AND DO THAT THING. SO I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE ALL PUT ON NOTICE MYSELF INCLUDED THAT WHEN THERE'S SOMETHING THAT THE DISTRICT SAYS THAT WE'RE GOING TO DO THAT WE HOLD OURSELVES ACCOUNTABLE. WE HOLD OUR ADMINISTRATION TEACHERS ACCOUNTABLE. WE HOLD OUR STUDENTS ACCOUNTABLE BECAUSE THAT'S THE ONLY WAY WE'RE GOING TO MOVE FORWARD WITH ALL THE THINGS HAPPENING AROUND US IF WE'RE NOT HELD HOLDING EACH OTHER ACCOUNTABLE. WE CAN'T GET BETTER. I KNOW THAT WE CAN DO IT. AND I WOULDN'T BE HERE IF I DIDN'T BELIEVE THAT. SO I JUST WANTED TO MAKE THAT STATEMENT TO SAY ACCOUNTABILITY IS SOMETHING THAT WE NEED TO FOCUS ON IN THIS DISTRICT. AND I'M PROUD TO BE A PART OF IT. AND I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING DR TURNESS, TAKE THE HELM AND MAKE SURE THAT HAPPENS. TAZA IS A HARD ACT TO FOLLOW, BECAUSE HE'S SO ALL SPOKEN. IT'S LIKE YOU DO PODCASTS OR SOMETHING. IF WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THE PODCAST, I DID LISTEN TO A JOE ROGAN PODCAST THIS WEEK. IF ANYBODY'S INTERESTED, UM I ATTENDED CAREER DAY AT VALADEZ AND I THOUGHT THAT THAT WAS VERY, VERY WELL DONE, AND THERE WAS SUCH A WIDE VARIETY OF CAREERS THAT THEY HAD AVAILABLE TO THE KIDS. I THINK THERE WAS WHAT A MORE CORNER FIRE DEPARTMENT. I MEAN, IT WAS LIKE MORTICIAN THERE WAS LIKE SO MANY ENDS OF THE SPECTRUM. UM IT WAS GREAT. WE HAD A GREAT TIME WAS ABLE TO WALK THROUGH ALL THE CLASSES WALKTHROUGH SOMEONE WITH KERRY WALKED THROUGH SOME LASHAWN, BUT IT'S JUST A GREAT EVENT AND SO UM I REALLY LIKE TO THANK PRINCIPAL VALIDUS FOR PUTTING THAT ON AND I WOULD REALLY REALLY SUGGESTS THAT OTHER MIDDLE SCHOOLS FOLLOW SUIT BECAUSE IT WAS JUST SUCH A GOOD DAY FOR THE KIDS. GOING INTO SOME OTHER THINGS. I'M GOING TO BE SHORT TONIGHT, BUT I HAVE HAD A LOT OF CONVERSATIONS AND I DON'T KNOW IF WE'VE EVER DONE THIS, BUT, UM, YOU KNOW, BEING A BOOSTER PRESIDENT MYSELF. UM WE KIND OF AREN'T YOU KNOW WE'RE DOING OKAY WITH OUR SPORTS EQUIPMENT, BUT LISTENING TO OTHER BOOSTERS AS WE'RE SITTING THERE IN THESE MEETINGS, UM HAVE WE EVER AUDITED R A. S B? AND SO THAT'S KIND OF A QUESTION. I HAVE, BECAUSE, AS I SAID, IN ALL OF THESE BOOSTER MEETINGS FOR FOOTBALL FOR, UM YOU KNOW, WATER POLO FIRST SWIM. UM IT SEEMS THAT OTHER DISTRICTS THEY COLLECT OTHER DISTRICTS. THEY UM , A SP DOES NOT COLLECT THE TICKET SALES FOR LIKE THE FOOTBALL GAMES, THE FOOTBALL TEAM'S COLLECTOR AND THEIR OWN CELLS. AND SO I'M WONDERING IF WE DID AN AUDIT IF WE WERE ABLE TO FIND OUT IS THERE A WAY THAT OUR FOOTBALL TEAM CAN KEEP THEIR KEEP THEIR TICKET SALES? IS THERE A WAY UM, THAT WE CAN JUST FIGURE OUT WHERE THE MONEY IS ACTUALLY BEING SPENT. AND IF THERE IS A WAY TO DO THINGS DIFFERENTLY, BECAUSE I CAN TELL YOU AS LIKE A BOOSTER PRESIDENT AND THEN ALSO TO JUST INVOLVED IN THE OTHER BOOSTERS. IT IS HARD TO RAISE MONEY IS THE SAME PEOPLE GETTING MONEY OVER AND OVER AGAIN. I REMEMBER BEING ON THE BOOSTERS, THE HERBAL AND HIGH SCHOOL, WHICH JULIE CLINK.

UM, WE I MEAN, IT'S JUST SAME PEOPLE DOING ALL YOU KNOW, DOING THE WORK. UM AND SO THERE ARE JUST SOME DIFFERENT ANGLES THAT PEOPLE HAVE ASKED. YOU KNOW, WHY CAN'T THE FOOTBALL TEAMS KEEP THEIR TICKET SALES? IT IS ALL THE FOOTBALL FAMILIES AND IT'S ALL THE FOOTBALL FANS THAT COME.

IT'S THE FOOTBALL, YOU KNOW, FAMILIES DOING WORK AT THE SNACK BAR, AND SO I WAS JUST CURIOUS IF WE'VE EVER AUDITED SB. UM AND IF WE DO IS THERE A WAY WE CAN LOOK AT THINGS JUST TO MAKE, UM YOU KNOW, KIND OF MONEY. GO TO THE SPORTS. CAN THE MONEY GO TO THE ARTS? CAN WE, YOU KNOW, MAYBE BREAK UP THE MONEY A LITTLE BIT MORE. SO IT GOES TOWARDS THE STUDENTS. BUT IT GOES, UM I GUESS IN AN EQUITABLE PROCESS UM, AND THEN ALSO TO I'VE HAD THE QUESTION BROUGHT UP TO ME. AND THEY'VE ASKED WHAT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF OUR DISTRICT FOR FIXING THE SCOREBOARDS FOR FIXING THE TURF ? FIRST, FIXING THE SAND AT THE FIELD? FOR FIXING ALL OF THIS STUFF, AND SO I WAS JUST CURIOUS. IF WE COULD HAVE A CLEAR, YOU KNOW, MAYBE OUR SPORTS PEOPLE ARE SCHOOLS. WE HAVE A CLEAR EXPECTATION OF WHAT THE BOOSTERS RESPONSIBILITY IS AND WHAT ALSO, THE DISTRICT'S RESPONSIBILITY IS AND I THINK THAT WOULD CLEAR UP A LOT OF CONFUSION BECAUSE THERE'S A LOT OF VERY EXPENSIVE THINGS. UM THAT GO INTO THESE PROGRAMS AND TO EXPECT THE BOOSTERS TO PAY FOR SOME OF THESE THINGS WHEN IT'S ALSO BEING USED FOR AT WITH OUTSIDE, YOU KNOW. I'LL TAKE PROGRAMS. I JUST WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT THE EXPECTATIONS ARE.

[02:20:01]

AND SO PEOPLE WERE SITTING UP HERE TODAY. ALSO TALKING ABOUT ALL THE CHARTER SCHOOL TALK, AND OBVIOUSLY WE GOT A PROPOSAL IN APRIL. FOR A CHARTER SCHOOL TO BASICALLY HAVE A LANDLORD TENANT RELATIONSHIP. AND IT WAS IMMEDIATELY SENT OVER TO THE ATTORNEYS. AND THEN A TWO PAGE THING GOT PUT OUT ON SOCIAL MEDIA AND EVERYTHING KIND OF WENT HAYWIRE. AH YOU KNOW, THE THREE CONSERVATIVE SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS WERE GOING TO BE BRINGING IN, UM, A CHARTER SCHOOL AT AT ALL COSTS, AND IT JUST WENT COMPLETELY. I MEAN, I WAS GETTING PHONE CALLS, AND THEY WERE TELLING ME WHERE PEOPLE WERE IN THE PROCESS, AND I WAS LIKE, I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT. I'VE ONLY SEEN THIS AND IT'S AT THE ATTORNEY. AND AS FAR AS I KNOW, THEY'RE JUST SEEING IF THIS IS A FEASIBLE OPTION. AND SO MORE AND MORE TEACHERS CALLED AND I REALLY APPRECIATE THE TEACHERS WHO DID CALL, BUT I THINK THAT THERE'S SO MUCH MR MISINFORMATION AND THERE'S SO MUCH GOSSIP AND THERE'S SO MUCH LEAKS. THAT IS ALL COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED. I DON'T KNOW WHO WAS LEAKING FROM THE DISTRICT TO THE UNION. I DON'T KNOW WHO WAS LEAKING TO THE TEACHERS. BUT ALL I WAS SAYING IS THAT THERE WAS MEETINGS AT THE SCHOOLS AND THE TEACHERS WERE LEAVING FREAKED OUT BECAUSE THEY SAID, WE WERE GOING TO BLINDLY APPROVED A CHARTER FOR THIS SCHOOL DISTRICT. I WILL NOT BLINDLY APPROVE ANYTHING. I WAS ELECTED TO DO WHAT'S BEST FOR OUR SCHOOL DISTRICT FOR OUR STUDENTS FOR OUR STAFF, TEACHERS, EVERYBODY AND I WILL NOT DEVIATE FROM THAT. MY POLITICS HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH BRINGING IN, UM, A CHARTER SCHOOL. DO I SUPPORT PARENT CHOICE IN SCHOOL CHOICE? ABSOLUTELY I DO MY GOING TO DO SOMETHING THAT'S HARMFUL TO OUR DISTRICT FINANCIALLY, AND ESPECIALLY TO IF IT'S NOT A FEASIBLE OPTION. ABSOLUTELY NOT. AND SO I THINK THAT PART OF THE PROBLEM HERE IS THAT WE HAVE A GROUP OF PEOPLE WHO ARE JUST CAUSING CHAOS. AND THE CHAOS HAS TO STOP. AND I'M JUST SO HAPPY WITH THE TEACHERS AND I'M SO HAPPY WITH THE STUDENTS AND THE STAFF AND PEOPLE WHO REACHED OUT AND SAID WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THIS? BECAUSE I COULD SAY I COULD. I COULD TRULY SAY I HAVE NO IDEA BECAUSE THE ATTORNEY HAS IT. THE ONLY THING THE ONLY STATEMENT THAT I HAVE MADE UP UNTIL THAT POINT OF LAST WEEK WHEN APPARENTLY THE CHARTER SCHOOL WE WEREN'T MOVING FAST ENOUGH, SO THEY WENT AWAY. I MEAN, THERE WAS REALLY NO THERE THERE, BUT WE HAD PEOPLE MAKING IT THERE THERE, AND I BELIEVE THERE'S A FEW CUTS OF POLITICS. AND SO WE NEED TO KEEP POLITICS OUT OF THIS. BECAUSE WE ARE HERE FOR THESE CHILDREN. WE ARE HERE TO EDUCATE THE CHILDREN. WE ARE HERE TO DO WHAT'S BEST FOR THE CHILDREN, AND WE GIVE THEM THE BEST. UM EDUCATION. BEST EXPERIENCE, DO EVERYTHING THAT WE CAN FOR THEM FOR THEM, AND I'M NOT BRINGING MY POLITICS.

INTO THIS BOARDROOM OR INTO THIS SCHOOL. ALL I WANT IS FOR THEM TO BE EDUCATED. AND SO I APPRECIATE ONCE AGAIN. ALL OF THE PEOPLE WHO CALLED AND ACTUALLY ASKED THE QUESTION AND SAID, WHAT'S GOING ON WITH THIS ? BECAUSE I COULD HONESTLY SAY I HAVE NO IDEA, BUT THE ONLY STATEMENT I MADE ABOUT THIS CHARTER SCHOOL IF IT'S NOT FEASIBLE IF IT'S HARMFUL TO THE DISTRICT IF IT'S HARMFUL FINANCIALLY TO THE DISTRICT. I'M GOING TO VOTE NOW. AND I WON'T SUPPORT THIS. HOWEVER I DO SUPPORT INNOVATION IF WE WERE GOING TO MAKE A MILLION BUCKS AND BE ABLE TO HIRE 10 MORE TEACHERS BECAUSE WE HAD EMPTY CLASSROOMS TO RENT OUT. THEN IS THAT AN OPTION THAT WE NEED TO TAKE? SHOULD WE BE INNOVATIVE ABOUT THIS? SHOULD WE LIKE ACTUALLY GIVE A CHANCE? SO I AM HAPPY THAT THE DISTRICT DID ENTERTAIN THIS PROCESS, AND THEY DID SEND IT OUT TO THE ATTORNEYS TO SEE. IS THIS SOMETHING THAT WE CAN DO IN THE FUTURE OR IF WE CAN DO NOW? BUT I'M REALLY, REALLY TIRED OF PEOPLE JUST STATING THAT I'M IN A, YOU KNOW , APPROVE A CHARTER SCHOOL. I'M GONNA PROVE THIS BECAUSE OF MY POLITICAL AFFILIATION. I AM HERE TO REPRESENT THE STUDENTS IN THIS DISTRICT, ALONG WITH THE STAFF OF THE TEACHERS, EVERYBODY I MEAN, MY KIDS GO HERE, TOO. SO . I WILL NOT DO ANYTHING THAT'S HARMFUL TO THIS DISTRICT. AND SO IF ANYBODY HAS ANY QUESTIONS IN THE FUTURE, PLEASE JUST ASKED ME. PLEASE LET ME KNOW. AND PLEASE CALL ME AND CONTACT ME BECAUSE I WILL GIVE YOU AN HONEST RESPONSE. MY RESPONSE WAS THE SAME ON SOCIAL MEDIA. MY FRANCE WAS THE SAME TWO EMAILS. EVERYTHING WAS THE SAME. UM ANOTHER THING TOO. I AM JUST GOING TO, UM. I'M GOING TO ADDRESS IS THERE'S A SITE THAT JUST CAME OUT SUPPORTERS OF PUBLIC EDUCATION AND WHAT THEY BASICALLY HAVE SAID SOME INFLAMMATORY THING. AND SO I'M JUST GOING TO, UH WE'LL JUST WALK THROUGH WHAT THEIR COMMENTS WERE. REAL QUICK. IT SAYS FOUR OF THE PLACENTA. THIS IS SUPPORTERS OF PUBLIC EDUCATION, AND THEY'RE A GROUP THAT MEETS A LOT OF THEM ARE UNIONS THAT MEET JOSH NEWMAN HAS MET WITH THEM SEVERAL TIMES. UM YOU KNOW, TEACHERS, THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY. UM AND SO OBVIOUSLY THIS ISN'T THIS ISN'T A PARTISAN ISSUE, BUT THIS IS WHAT THEY ARE PUTTING OUT. AND SO IT SAYS FOR THE PLACENTIA, YORBA LINDA UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT'S FOOT 54 OF THE FIVE TRUSTEES ARE EXTREMISTS.

[02:25:05]

CONGRATULATIONS. CARRY. THE BOARD MAJORITY WANTS TO LIMIT WHICH TEXTBOOKS ARE PILOTING IGNORING SUGGESTIONS BY THE ACTUAL TEACHERS. AND IT SAYS TRUSTY BLADE, YOUNGBLOOD AND ANDERSON UP FOR REELECTION IN NOVEMBER. 2024 IF THEY UNDERSTOOD THE ACTUAL LITERARY REVIEW REVIEW COMMITTEE AND THE ACTUAL PROCESS THAT THAT STATEMENT IS FALSE. BECAUSE THE DEPUTY DISTRICT ATTORNEY FOUND THAT TRUSTY BLADES AND YOUNG MEN VIOLATED THE BOOK, THE BROWN ACT , THEY HAD TO RECEIVE TRAINING FROM THE SCHOOL DISTRICT LAWYER. WELL, THAT'S NOT EXACTLY TRUE, IT WAS A POTENTIAL VIOLATION, NOT A GUILTY AFTER BEING ELECTED TRUSTEE BLADES. AND YOUNG BLOOD DID NOT ATTEND BRANNOCK TRAINING FROM THE CALIFORNIA SCHOOL BOARD ASSOCIATION. THAT IS NOT TRUE AS WELL. I ATTENDED VIA ZOOM BECAUSE WE'RE IN THE MIDDLE OF COVID. SO I DID ATTEND WHAT ALL NEWLY ELECTED SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS ATTENDED. AND IT DID GO OVER THE BROWN ACT TRAINING, SO THAT'S ANOTHER FALSE. INSTEAD MYSELF AND TRUST YOUNG BLOOD. WE ATTEND WORKSHOPS HOSTED BY THE BOARD OF EDUCATION TRUSTEE MARY BARK BARK EAST CAL POLICY CENTER FOR THEIR MARCHING ORDERS TO ATTACK PUBLIC EDUCATION. I'M SORRY. I'M A PRODUCT OF PUBLIC EDUCATION. MY CHILDREN ARE PROBABLY THE PRODUCT OF PUBLIC EDUCATION. MY WHOLE FAMILY IS SO WHY WOULD I ATTACK PUBLIC EDUCATION? I RAN FOR THIS OFFICE TO HELP HOPEFULLY ENHANCE PUBLIC EDUCATION. AND THEN IT SAYS BASICALLY THAT WE RELEASED ASSISTANT SUPERINTENDENT RICK LOPEZ FROM HIS CONTRACT, WHICH IS NOT TRUE. AND THEN IT SAYS THAT BASICALLY ALL OF OUR ACTIONS ARE HAVING A CHILLING EFFECT ON EDUCATORS. AND SO ONE THING THAT I DID FIND THAT WHEN SOMEONE WAS UP HERE SAYING, YOU KNOW THE ACTIONS OF OUR STUDENTS WHAT'S HAPPENING IN CLASSROOMS? ON SOME OF THESE SPECIAL BOARD MEETINGS. WHERE THERE IS VIDEOS GOING OUT, AND THERE WAS FACEBOOK POST BY TEACHERS IN OUR DISTRICT, TALKING ABOUT THE THREE BOARD MEMBERS UP HERE. I WAS CALLED IN EVANGELICAL FASCIST BY A TEACHER. AND SO I'M SITTING HERE GOING. WE'RE SITTING HERE SAYING, LET'S BE EXAMPLES. BUT THEN WHAT ARE WE AS ADULTS? ARE WE BEING EXAMPLES? ARE WE BEING EXAMPLES TO OUR STUDENTS BY GOING LIVE ON FACEBOOK AND CALLING PEOPLE THESE THINGS AND ATTACKING SOMEBODY'S RELIGION. IF THEY IF I WAS NOT, I AM A CHRISTIAN. I'M UNAPOLOGETICALLY CHRISTIAN. I HAVE FAITH IN GOD. IF I WAS A DIFFERENT RELIGION WOULD THAT HAVE BEEN ACCEPTABLE TO ATTACK? IF I WAS A DIFFERENT GENDER IF I WAS A DIFFERENT RACE WOULD THAT HAVE BEEN ACCEPTABLE TO ATTACK? AND SO WE NEED TO START THINKING ABOUT THIS THAT IT'S NOT JUST GREAT. IT'S ALL ITS RESPECT FOR ALL. THAT WE NEED TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE TO, AND WE CANNOT HOLD OUR STUDENTS AND SIT HERE AND SAY THEY HAVE TO LEARN, AND THEY HAVE TO UNDERSTAND THEY HAVE TO TEACH. NOT ONLY SHOULD WE BE TEACHING THIS AT HOME AS PARENTS. BUT WE ARE NOT SETTING A GOOD EXAMPLE. BY HAVING TEACHERS ATTACKING PARENTS IN OUR SCHOOL DISTRICT AND PEOPLE ON THE BOARD. WHAT KIND OF EXAMPLE ARE WE SETTING? SO UNTIL WE START TO CHECK OURSELVES AS ADULTS, HOW CAN WE EXPECT THESE CHILDREN'S BEHAVIOR TO CHANGE? SO MY ONLY THOUGHT TONIGHT IS THIS MISINFORMATION THAT'S PUT OUT BY SOME MEMBERS OF OUR COMMUNITY, AND IT HAS JUST CAUSING THE CHAOS IN HER DISTRICT. I AM ONCE AGAIN, ASKING AS I'VE ASKED BEFORE THAT WE WORK TOGETHER WITH THE DISTRICT, THE UNION, THE TEACHERS, THE STUDENTS AND THE COMMUNITY TO EDUCATE AND UPLIFT OUR STUDENTS. THESE DISTRACTIONS NEED TO STOP AND THE FOCUS NEEDS TO BE ON OUR STUDENTS AND GIVING THE BEST EDUCATION POSSIBLE. THE CHAOS NEEDS TO STOP AND THE FOCUS NEEDS TO RETURN INTO THE CLASSROOM TO THE STUDENTS TO THE SPORTS FIELD TO THE POOL DECK EVERYWHERE WHERE WE CAN SUPPORT THESE STUDENTS, AND SO I AM SAYING RIGHT NOW I AM PARTNERING WITH THE TEACHERS. I'M PARTNERING WITH STAFF WILL PARTNER WITH ANYBODY TO MAKE THESE CHILDREN HAVE THE BEST EDUCATION POSSIBLE. APPLE SENT YOUR BELINDA AND WE PUT DR CHURNS IN THIS SEAT, AND HE HAS FULLY FULLY QUALIFIED AND CAPABLE AND WILL BRING US THERE. SO LET'S STOP THE NOISE AND GET TO WORK. THANK YOU. WHY DO I HAVE TO FOLLOW THAT? OKAY GUYS, UM, SO MY BOARD REPORT IS GOING TO BE PRETTY SIMPLE. PRETTY EASY. I JUST WANT TO THANK EVERYBODY FOR SHOWING UP TONIGHT . AS EVERYONE KNOWS THE PAST MONTH HAS BEEN PRETTY HECTIC WITH ALL OF THE, UM, BOARD MEETINGS AND SPECIAL BOARD MEETINGS, AND I WILL TAKE, UH MARYLAND'S CALENDAR IN

[02:30:01]

OTHERWISE THERE'S SOME SORT OF BROWN ACT VIOLATION THAT MIGHT HAPPEN. SO IT GOES THROUGH, UM, A PARTICULAR CHANNEL. USUALLY THE SUPERINTENDENT'S, UM SECRETARY AND SHE SENDS OUT THE REQUEST. IF YOU CAN MAKE IT GREAT IF YOU CAN'T AND THERE'S NOT ENOUGH FOR A QUORUM, THEN THE MEETING DOES NOT HAPPEN. IF THERE IS ENOUGH, THEN THE MEETING DOES HAPPEN, SO HOPEFULLY THAT SIMPLIFIES EVERYTHING. UM NEXT, I WOULD LIKE TO JUST WELCOME ONBOARD DOCTOR CHARNESS. WE ARE VERY EXCITED TO SEE HIM. THANK YOU, SIR. FOR STEPPING UP TO THE PLATE HERE, AND I'M EXCITED TO SEE HOW, UM YOU WILL CONTINUE TO MAKE A P Y EL USD AND AN EXCELLENT DISTRICT TO WORK IN AS WELL AS LEARN IN SO WELCOME ABOARD. ALSO I GOT A CHANCE TO HAVE A VALENCIA HIGH SCHOOL TOUR WITH PRINCIPAL HURTS WELL. AND UH, I TELL YOU, IT ENDED UP BEING LIKE A MINI MARATHON. I NEVER REALIZED HOW LARGE THAT CAMPUS IS. SO BY THE END OF IT, I WAS I WAS PRETTY MUCH SPENT. UM AND I REALLY THANK HIM FOR HIS, UH, HIS PATIENT PATIENTS AND PROFESSIONALISM BECAUSE HE HAD TO KIND OF TELL ME ALONG A COUPLE OF TIMES. UM OTHER THINGS . I WAS FORTUNATE TO BE A PART OF THE DISTINGUISHED SERVICE AWARDS FOR YORBA LINDA HIGH SCHOOL. UM ALONG WITH MISS BUCK . IT WAS INCREDIBLE. ONCE AGAIN TO SEE THESE THESE KIDS AND THE TEACHERS MOVING IN A POSITIVE DIRECTION AND JUST LEARNING WHERE THEY'RE GOING TO, YOU KNOW, GO TO AND END UP. UM ANOTHER NIGHT IN WHICH MY HAND WAS KIND OF SORE AFTERWARDS.

WHAT WAS THERE LIKE 500 STUDENTS? IT WAS INCREDIBLE, BUT REALLY GOOD, REALLY GOOD PROGRAM, SO THE NEXT THING I THINK MOST OF YOU KNOW THAT WE HAD A L CAP DRAFT MEETING. IT WAS VERY INFORMATIVE. AND THANK YOU AGAIN, DOCTOR. ADAMSON HER I THOUGHT FOR SURE SHE WAS GOING TO BE HORSE BECAUSE SHE DID A LOT OF TALKING IN THAT ONE. BUT, UH, DUE TO HER, UM, HER INPUT AND HER STAFF ARE AMAZING STAFF. THEY WORKED REALLY HARD ON THIS. IT WAS A LOT EASIER TO KIND OF DIGEST A LOT OF THESE NUMBERS AND SUCH. SO I LOOK FORWARD TO, UH, WORKING ON THAT EL CAP SOME MORE. UM AFTER WHICH, UM, I WAS INVITED TO THE VALADEZ MIDDLE SCHOOL CAREER DAY. SO THERE WERE SEVERAL SEVERAL OF US THERE. UH IT WAS TRULY A UNIQUE EVENT. I DID GET DUCK INTO A FEW OF THE CLASSES, INCLUDING THE CORONER, ONE, WHICH WAS VERY INTERESTING KIDS WERE RIVETED. UM HOWEVER, I THINK THE CORNER IT'S LIKE I WAS A LITTLE CALLOUS AND THROUGH A LOT OF STUFF OUT THERE THAT THESE KIDS WERE MIGHT'VE BEEN A LITTLE SHOCKED ON. SO, UH, BUT IT DEFINITELY, UH YOU KNOW, PIQUE THEIR INTEREST. AND SO I LOOK FORWARD TO ANY OF THESE PROFESSIONAL CAREERS IN WHICH OUR STUDENTS GET THE OPPORTUNITY AND I TO THINK THAT IT SHOULD BE BROUGHT TO OTHER MIDDLE SCHOOLS BECAUSE THAT WAS AMAZING EVENT. UM ALSO ATTENDED THE VALENCIA HIGH SCHOOL DISTINGUISHED SCHOLARS AWARD NIGHT. I THINK YOU WERE AT THE MISS ANDERSON. YOU WERE AT THE MUSICAL PERFORMANCE, SO I WAS IN THE SCHOLAR. GREAT. THEY HAD. THEY HAD SEVERAL KIDS THAT WERE DOING MUSICAL NUMBERS. THEY'RE VERY TALENTED, VERY TALENTED KIDS AND ONCE AGAIN TO SEE ALL THOSE SENIORS THAT HAVE SPENT, YOU KNOW, FOUR YEARS OF THEIR LIFE, JUST, UH, MAKING INCREDIBLE ADVANCEMENTS ON THEIR EDUCATION WAS REALLY A TREAT FOR ME. OKAY. LASTLY I WAS INVITED TO THE MULTICULTURAL FESTIVAL AT MELROSE ELEMENTARY MYSELF AND, UM, MISS ANDERSON WERE THERE AND, UH, IT'S ANOTHER INCREDIBLE EVENT. UH PRINCIPAL. YOU, UH PUT ON THE FIRST ANNUAL

[02:35:05]

ANYTHING ELSE? OKAY VERY GOOD. ALRIGHT FOLKS, THIS WE'RE GONNA GO INTO OUR NEXT PORTION. THIS

[GENERAL FUNCTIONS]

[02:40:07]

WHAT'S THE FEAR OF IT COMING BEFORE US? IF IT'S JUST A TRANSPARENCY STEP. IT'S A PUBLIC VIEWING. IT GOES TO PARENTS. IT'S JUST VERY CLEAR. THE ASSUMPTION THAT EVERY BOOK THAT'S COMING THROUGH IS GOING TO NOT GET APPROVED IS A LITTLE BIT. IS A LITTLE BIT OF A OVERESTIMATION BASED ON YOUR ASSUMPTION THAT THEY'RE BRINGING US BOOKS THAT WE'RE GOING TO IMPROVE. SO IT SHOULDN'T MATTER . IT'S JUST A PUBLIC SHOWING, THAT'S ALL AND YOU CAN VOTE.

HOWEVER YOU LIKE I KNOW I CAN I DO. I'M JUST STATING THE REASONS WHY THERE'S NO CONFLICT. I AGREE WITH MARILYN. I THINK REQUIRING BOARD APPROVAL BEFORE PRIOR TO BEING PILOTED IS ALSO IS OVERSTEPPING. JUST AS AS YOU SAID IT. I KNOW THAT. DO YOU THINK IT'S NOT? THAT BIG A DEAL , BUT IT REALLY IS. WE'RE CIRCUMVENTING THE WHOLE REASON THAT WE HAVE EDUCATORS AND THE PROCESS. UM COMING BACK AND DOING IT AT THE END. WE ARE APPROVING ALL OF THE THINGS AT THE END BECAUSE IT'S GONE THROUGH A VERY VETTED PROCESS. UM AND IT'S GOTTEN TO THAT POINT DOING IT AHEAD OF TIME. WE'RE NOT ALLOWING THAT PROCESS TO GO FORWARD. WE COULD HAVE THINGS THAT GO FORWARD THAT NEVER EVEN MAKE IT TO OUR TABLE BECAUSE IT HAS BEEN VETTED THROUGH THAT SYSTEM, I THINK STARTING WITH US AS THE FOREFRONT IS THE WRONG WAY TO GO ABOUT IT, AND WE'RE NOT ALLOWING THAT OUR OUR EXPERTS TO BE INVOLVED IN IT. SO IF THAT'S EXCUSE ME, EXCUSE ME, IF THAT'S THE CASE. EXCUSE ME. I MEAN, IT REALLY IS MY TIME TO TALK ABOUT THIS. PLEASE DON'T CUT ME OFF. UM I AM GOING TO VOTE NO ON THIS BECAUSE OF JUST THOSE THREE WORDS REQUIRE BOARD APPROVAL BEFORE I DON'T I THINK IT'S GREAT AND PARENTS SHOULD BE ABLE TO OPT OUT. THEY SHOULD BE MADE AWARE OF IT PRAYING PRIOR TO BEING PILOTED, BUT I THINK THAT THE PROCESS NEEDS TO BE THAT WAY. AND THEN THE BOARD IS THE FINAL APPROVAL, SO I WILL VOTE. NO, IF THIS LINE STAYS IN IT. I BELIEVE IT'S A STEP TO PROTECT THE STUDENTS. UH, THAT'S WHY I INSTITUTED IT. AND YOUR THANK YOU FOR THE CLARIFICATION. THAT'S GOOD. I'M GONNA VOTE YES. OKAY SO, UM AND I'M GONNA VOTE YES, AS WELL BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO THROW ANYBODY UNDER THE BUS, BUT THE LITERARY REVIEW COMMITTEE I WAS KIND OF APPALLED READING INTERNMENT AS I KNOW SOME OTHER PARENTS WHO READ IT REACHED OUT, BUT SOME PEOPLE WERE ASKING PEOPLE IN THE LITERARY REVIEW COMMITTEE AND THE PEOPLE WHO ARE ACTUALLY PUSHING THIS WITH THEIR NAME ON IT IF THEY HAD READ THE BOOK, AND THEY SAID THEY HAD NOT. SO I'M WONDERING IF WE DO WE HAVE A FLAWED PROCESS ARE PEOPLE PUSHING THE BOOK THROUGH THAT ARE NOT READING IT. AND SO I FEEL LIKE I'M GOING TO DO MY DUTY ELEGANCE WHEN BOOKS COMING FOR ME. I'M GOING TO READ IT AND I'M GONNA YOU KNOW, DO WHATEVER.

AND I'M NOT ALL ABOUT WHAT HAVE WE DENIED SO FAR? LIKE YOU SAID, MARILYN, WHAT HAVE WE DENIED? IT'S JUST AN EXTRA STEP. AND THE BOARD EVERYTHING ALL RESPONSIBILITY ALWAYS COMES BACK TO THE BOARD. AND SO THIS IS JUST SOMETHING. WE'RE TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR. OKAY? OKAY, SO HAS EVERYONE COMMENTED ARE WE READY TO VOTE? ALL RIGHT. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR HIGH. ALL THOSE OPPOSED NO. OKAY? THE MOTION CARRIES THREE TO VOTE. NO BOARD MEMBER OR NO STUDENT BOARD.

[02:45:02]

SECOND READING SECOND, MISS ANDERSON FRAZIER. DR ADAMSON. IF YOU WOULD. I DIDN'T REALLY HAVE ANYTHING FURTHER TO SAY ABOUT THIS ONE. IT'S REALLY JUST TO DELETE IT.

WE'RE BRINGING THIS POLICY BACK AT THE REQUEST OF A BOARD MEMBER. IF YOU RECALL, DR MATTHEWS BROUGHT THIS TO THE BOARD IN THE FALL WITH THE RECOMMENDATION THAT THE BOARD AND THE SUPERINTENDENT DEVELOPED THE AGENDA TOGETHER. THE BOARD DECIDED TO KEEP IT WHERE JUST THE SUPERINTENDENT MADE THE AGENDA. NOW THIS VERSION MAKES THE RECOMMENDATION THAT THE BOARD PRESIDENT AND THE SUPERINTENDENT WORK TOGETHER TO DEVELOP THE AGENDA. THERE ARE OTHER SLIGHT CHANGES IN THE POLICY BASED ON RECOMMENDATIONS FROM COUNSEL. UM AND YOUR SUGGESTIONS AS A BOARD LAST MONTH. THESE SUGGESTIONS INCLUDE NEW LANGUAGE POINTING TO BOARD BY LAW, 93 TO 2.2, WHICH OUTLINES OUR PROCESS FOR PUBLIC COMMENT. AND A NEW PARAMETER FOR OUR PLANNING MEETINGS, WHICH STATES THAT THE SUPERINTENDENT AND BOARD PRESIDENT WILL BE ACCOMPANIED BY ONE ADDITIONAL BOARD MEMBER ON A ROTATING BASIS . IF APPROVED TONIGHT, WE WILL ADOPT THE REVISED VERSION OF THIS POLICY AND WE'LL FOLLOW IT MOVING FORWARD. OKAY, COMMENTS.

I THINK IT LOOKS GREAT, I THINK THE ADDED UM, DETAIL MAKES SENSE AND IT WILL BE EASY TO FOLLOW, SO I'M GOOD WITH IT. IN THE, UM ROUTINE DID BOARD MEMBER IS THAT OPTIONAL LIKE IN? LET'S SAY, UH, ONE OF THE BOARD MEMBERS DON'T WANT TO BE AT THAT MEETING. THEY DON'T NECESSARILY HAVE TO BE THERE IS THAT CORRECT? AT THE OPTION OF DIVORCE.

[03:15:01]

AS MY NUTS. DO YOU HAVE TO EXCUSE YOURSELF FROM THE VOTE SINCE YOU HIRE THIS CONTRACTOR AT YOUR SHELTER, NOT CURRENTLY AT OUR SHELTER THAT HAD BEEN IN THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS. I WOULD HAVE TO ASK. IS THERE A IS THERE ANOTHER PROGRAM THAT'S SIMILAR TO THIS THAT WE CAN COMPARE IT TO HAVE TRIED A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT ONES FOR US , SPECIFICALLY BECAUSE ESPECIALLY WITH FAMILIES THAT ARE HOUSED THERE IS A LOT OF ADDITIONAL STUFF THAT GOES WITH THAT. SO WE HAVE HAVE MOVED MORE TOWARD A TARGETED ONE THAT HAS TO DO WITH, UM, WITH CHILDHOOD TRAUMA. UM THAT'S JUST A LITTLE BIT MORE NUANCED FOR A HOUSE. AND I THINK COST WISE. IT'S VERY COMPARABLE TO YOU KNOW WHAT OTHER ORGANIZATIONS WOULD WOULD CHARGE? I THINK THE BENEFIT WITH LEVON LOGIC AS WE HAVE BEEN USING THEM FOR MULTIPLE YEARS. I THINK ALMOST 66 OR SEVEN TO THIS AT THIS POINT, AND SO I THINK THERE'S SOMETHING KNOWN ABOUT THAT THAT YOU KNOW TEACHERS CONTINUE JUST TO HONE THEIR SKILLS SPECIFIC TO THAT STRATEGY. ALSO YOU KNOW, WE JUST ADD. I THINK THAT WE'VE CONTINUED TO HEAR SO MANY POSITIVE RESULTS AND FEEDBACK FROM PARENTS AND TEACHERS ALIKE ADMINISTRATORS AS WELL, JUST BECAUSE THE STRATEGIES ARE PROVEN, AND WE GET EFFECTIVE RESULTS THROUGH UTILIZING IT. I DON'T KNOW IF THERE'S ANYTHING ELSE. DOCTOR SPACE I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE IN IT. JUST GIVEN YOU HAVE BEEN INSTRUMENTAL IN BRINGING ON THOSE TRAININGS THIS YEAR. DO YOU THINK WOULD BE HELPFUL? SO WE HAVE THE PLEASURE OF HAVING THREE UH, PARENT EVENTS OVER THE LAST THREE WEEKS AND HAD OVER 170 IN ATTENDANCE, BUT REALLY HAVING THE OPPORTUNITY TO MEET THE NEED, UM WHAT WE'RE HEARING NOT ONLY FROM OUR PARENTS, BUT ALSO OUR TEACHERS IS THAT BEHAVIORS ARE AT THE FOREFRONT OF SEVERAL THINGS THAT ARE HAPPENING WITHIN THE CLASSROOM AROUND OUR POSITIVE BEHAVIOR INTERVENTIONS AND SUPPORTS. UM A LOT OF THIS HAS COME FROM THE PANDEMIC. WE HAVE PART OF THIS CONTRACT IS SUPPORTING OUR NEW TEACHERS WITH STRATEGIES. ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE'VE SEEN IS THAT OUR TEACHERS THAT ARE HERE ON THEIR CANDIDACIES WHEN THEY WERE IN THE CLASSROOM, DOING THEIR STUDENT TEACHING THAT THEY DIDN'T HAVE THAT TRADITIONAL ENVIRONMENT. SO THEY WERE DOING STUDENT TEACHING THROUGH. ZOOM UM, SO WE ARE CONTINUOUSLY PULLING OUR SITES. EACH OF OUR SITES COMPLETES THE TIERED FIDELITY INVENTORY TWICE A YEAR, AND BEHAVIORS ARE THE THING RISING. AND SO WE REALLY WANT THE BEST OF THE BEST, AND WE WANT THE EXPERTS. WE WANT TO HEAR OUR PARENTS AND OUR PARENTS ARE CRAVING SUPPORT. I ALSO 100% APPRECIATE THE TRAIN THE TRAINER MODEL AND I THINK WE SHOULD ALWAYS BE ADVOCATING CHECKING THE RETURN ON OUR INVESTMENT AND CONTINUING TO MAKING OF MAKING SURE THAT WE'RE GETTING THE BEST OF THE BEST 100% HERE. UM, BUT OUR TOSA ARE WORKING DIRECTLY WITH THE CURRICULUM, EACH ONE OF THESE IMPLEMENTATIONS THAT WE BRING TO YOU, THEY ARE THE LEADS ON THAT, SO THEY'RE THE ONES PROVIDING THE PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT. SO WHEN WE LOOK AT CAPACITY AND THE NUMBER OF HOURS IN THE DAY WE REALLY WANT OUR PARENTS WANT TO LISTEN TO THE PARENTS, AND THAT'S REALLY THE REASONING BEHIND THIS AND THUS INCREASING THE AMOUNT TO GET THAT SUPPORT. IN ADDITION, THEY'VE BEEN INSTRUMENTAL WITH R D LACK. SO UM, OUR PARENTS OF OUR STUDENTS THAT SPEAK OTHER LANGUAGES. THEY'VE BEEN COMING TO THOSE MEETINGS AND WORKING DIRECTLY WITH THOSE PARENTS, SO IT'S BEEN A GREAT OPPORTUNITY.

WE DID SURVEYS AT THE LAST THREE EVENTS. PEOPLE ARE CRAVING MORE. UM SO THAT'S HELPFUL. I WAS JUST I FOUND THE COMMENTS THAT WERE IN OUR BOARD UPDATE, AND THAT WAS EXACTLY WHAT IT WAS, ONE PERSON SAID. I LOVE THIS CLASS SLASH TRAINING TOOK SO MUCH AWAY FROM IT AND WOULD LOVE TO SEE SLASH 10 MORE. I'M NOT. I DIDN'T PULL THIS BECAUSE I'M AGAINST IT. I'M PULLING IT BECAUSE OF THIS IS SUCH A GOOD PROGRAM. HOW COME IF WE HAVE ALL THIS? WE HAVE A LOT OF TOSA. AND SO I'M WONDERING WHY WE DON'T TRAIN OUR OUR OWN STAFF TO DO THIS, AND I THINK IT'S JUST SOMETHING WE NEED TO LOOK FORWARD. YOU KNOW, LOOK TO IN THE FUTURE TO DO BECAUSE YOU KNOW, HIRING THESE OUTSIDE. RESOURCES TO COME IN A FEW TIMES A YEAR VERSUS HAVING YOU HAVE YOUR STAFF SITTING HERE AND YOU CAN DO MORE AND MORE WITHIN IT. I WAS JUST TRYING TO THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX OF ALWAYS HAVING TO HIRE OUTSIDE. YOU TRAIN YOUR OWN STAFF AND THEN THEY TRAIN OTHER PEOPLE, AND THEN THAT'S HOW YOU REALLY BUILD UP YOUR PEOPLE, SO THAT'S ALL YOU CREATE A CULTURE, BUT I THINK THAT THIS IS JUST A STRATEGY CONVERSATION. I THINK IT'S A GOOD CONVERSATION TO HAVE ABOUT IT. YEAH ABSOLUTELY. THE EYE DOCTOR, ADAMSON SAID. SIX YEARS WE'VE HAD LOVE AND LOGIC

[03:20:06]

[46. Approve the agreement with Total Educational Systems Support (TESS) for Dr. Gene Tavernetti to provide coaching and professional development to PYLUSD induction candidates and new site administrators from August 8, 2023, through June 21, 2024.]

AND SO YOU KNOW, ONCE AGAIN TO THE POINT YOU'VE ALL BEEN MAKING YOUR REALLY IDENTIFYING AND DEVELOPING THAT TRAINER OF TRAINERS MODEL. UH ULTIMATELY, OUR HALITOSIS CERTAINLY ARE.

THAT'S AN AREA THAT THEY SPECIALIZE IN. AND SO WE CAN. CERTAINLY THEY DO IN BED A LOT OF THOSE THOSE STRATEGIES INTO THE TRAINING THAT THEY PROVIDE. AGAIN THIS IS JUST SPECIFICALLY FOR OUR NEW TEACHERS. ONCE AGAIN, I'D LOVE TO HAVE DR SPACE. I'LL JUST SHARE A LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT THE DETAILS OF PARTICULARLY THOSE INITIAL DAYS LOOK LIKE WHEN HE COMES INTO WORK WITH THE TEACHERS. YES SO, UM, I AGAIN HAVE BEEN HERE 10 MONTHS. BUT WHEN I GOT HERE, I YOU KNOW, I WAS TOLD YOU GOT TO GO SEE HIM IN ACTION, SO I WENT AND ATTENDED THE PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT. AND SO WHAT HE'S REALLY WORKING ON IS SUPPORTING OUR TEACHERS AND COACHING ALONGSIDE THEM. SO WHAT IS DIFFERENT ABOUT THAT IS THAT TEACHERS SIGN UP FOR THE TRAINING. THEY GET THE PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT AND THEN HE GOES OUT TO THE SITES AND WATCHES THEM COACH AND HAVE CONVERSATIONS WITH ONE ANOTHER. UM HE REALLY FOCUSES ON THE ZONES AND SO REALLY, OF BEING EFFECTIVE AND HOW YOU'RE TEACHING AND HOW YOU'RE ENGAGING STUDENTS. WHAT WE'VE SEEN POST PANDEMIC AGAIN IS THAT ATTENTION SPANS HAVE SIGNIFICANTLY SHORTEN AND SO HE WORKS WITH OUR TEACHERS TO CAPITALIZE ON THOSE SHORT WINDOWS OF OPPORTUNITY TO PROVIDE DIRECT INSTRUCTION AND TO KEEP KIDS MOTIVATED AND ENGAGED WITHIN THE CLASSROOM, SO HIS MODEL IS HE BRINGS A COHORT TOGETHER, PROVIDES THE TRAINING AND THEN GOES OUT TO THE SITE AND WORKS WITH THAT INDIVIDUAL. UM TEACHER, EITHER YOUR ONE YEAR TWO OR YEAR THREE. AND SO IT'S BEEN REALLY WELL RECEIVED AGAIN . I'VE BEEN HERE 10 MONTHS, BUT I AGAIN DON'T THINK THERE'S ANYTHING WRONG WITH US GOING BACK AND SAYING, HEY, ARE WE MAXIMIZING OUR RESOURCES? I APPRECIATE THAT, ACTUALLY. UM, BUT AGAIN, HE'S BEEN REALLY HIGHLY ACCLAIMED AND PEOPLE ARE BEGGING FOR HIM, SO THAT'S PRETTY MUCH ALL I CAN SHARE ON. THAT COULD BE ANOTHER QUESTION.

UM HOW MANY TEACHERS IS HE WORKING WITH? OR DO YOU ANTICIPATE HIM WORKING WITH NEXT

[03:25:05]

ITS 1ST, 2ND AND 3RD YEAR TEACHERS. THAT'S GOOD. AND WE'RE USING THIS THROUGH OUR GRANT.

WE'RE PAYING FOR THIS THROUGH OUR EDUCATOR. EFFECTIVENESS. GRANT? YES. GET OUR TOASTED DO THIS AS WELL BECAUSE THEY SHADOW THIS PERSON YOU INSTEAD OF HIM COMING IN FROM THE OUTSIDE, AND THEN YOU ARE WALKING THROUGH WITH THIS PERSON YOU'RE KIND OF FOLLOWING THROUGH. YEAH I MEAN, I PROBABLY WOULD LET DR ADAMSON SPEAK TO THAT SHE'S OVER. THE TOAST IS BUT WHAT FROM? WHAT I'VE SEEN IS ARTISTS ARE FULLY ON BOARD, WITH INDUCTION ALREADY. SO THEY PROVIDE THE BREAKOUT SESSIONS. THEY PROVIDE THE MENTORSHIPS, UM, IN ADDITION TO OUR MENTORS, SO THAT WITH THE CURRICULUM ROLLOUTS ON TOP OF THAT, AND THE MASTER PLAN, IT'S JUST IT WOULD BE LOOKING AT CAPACITY AND LOOKING AT THOSE INDIVIDUALS, BUT SHE PROBABLY THE BETTER ONE TO SPEAK TO THAT BECAUSE SHE OVERSEES THEM. THANK YOU FOR THAT, DOCTOR. SPACE THAT I MEAN, ABSOLUTELY WE CAN WE CAN HAVE THEM ATTEND SOME OF THIS TRAINING TO JUST REALLY HONE AND FURTHER THEIR SKILLS. BUT AS I SAID, I THINK WHAT THEY THEIR FOCUS IS SO SPECIFIC TO THEIR CONTENT AREAS AND SO IT WOULD BE EMBEDDED IN THE TRAINING THEY ALREADY PROVIDE. I THINK JUST THE ADDITIONAL, YOU KNOW, BENEFIT FROM HAVING SOMEONE FROM THE OUTSIDE PROVIDE THAT FEEDBACK THAT COACHING CYCLE.

THAT IT IS, YOU KNOW, SOMEONE THAT'S COMING IN FROM WITH A LITTLE BIT MORE OF AN AN OBJECTIVE VIEW THAT THEY'RE, YOU KNOW, NOT NECESSARILY. IT'S THEY'RE BRINGING FEEDBACK FROM AN OUTSIDE PERSPECTIVE, RIGHT OF WHAT THEY'RE SEEING, YOU KNOW, OUT THERE IN AT AT AT THE SCHOOLS AND IN OTHER SITUATIONS , IT'S NOT NECESSARY FROM OUR OWN TOASTERS WHO, YOU KNOW, HAVE A LITTLE BIT MORE OF THAT CLOSER, WORKING RELATIONSHIP WITHOUT TEACHERS AND ARE THERE AS A MEANS OF SUPPORT. VERSUS COACHING RIGHT? AH YES. SO I'D APPRECIATE. UM UH, YOU KNOW, HERE IN THE DISCUSSION SOME TIME TO LOOK AT THIS, UM AND IN, UM, UM, MEET WITH DR ADAMSON AND HER TEAM. AND AH AND SEE WHAT WE CAN OFFER. AND WHAT, WHAT THIS CONSULTANTS BRINGING TO THE TABLE AND, UM, I THINK IT'S A WORTHY POSITION, WHICH I'M HEARING IT COULD QUITE POSSIBLY BE TO BRING IT BACK IN JUNE, BUT I'D ASK THE BOARD NOT TO VOTE ON IT TONIGHT. SO I HAVE SOME TIME TO, UM TO LOOK AT IT BECAUSE I DO THINK THAT WE SHOULD LOOK AT MAXIMIZING OUR RESOURCES. WE HAVE TEACHERS THAT YOU KNOW, WE HAVE EMPLOYEES THAT FOCUSED JUST ON THIS AREA. UM AND SO THIS COULD BE SOMETHING THAT WE'RE DUPLICATING EFFORTS AND, YOU KNOW, MAYBE NOT. BUT I'D LIKE TO AT LEAST SPEND SOME TIME TO LOOK AT IT WITH STAFF. UM AND I DIDN'T GET A CHANCE TO DIG INTO THAT IN MY FIRST WEEK. SO UM, UM AH, YEAH. SO THAT'S WHAT WE COULD BRING IT BACK. THAT'S FINE WITH ME. DON'T MAKE A MOTION TO TABLE TABLE. I WILL MAKE A MOTION TO TABLE NUMBER 46 OR DO WE JUST PULL IT? PULL IT, I THINK YEAH, SUBSTITUTE MY MOTION. I THINK WE JUST MOTION ON THE TABLE. WE CAN. I'LL MAKE IT. SUBSTITUTE MOTION WITHDRAWAL YOUR WITHDRAW. WITHDRAW MY MOTION. UH HERE. YOU WOULD NEED TO WITHDRAW. DRAW MY SECOND. OKAY SO ITEM NUMBER 46 IS WITHDRAWN. TO REVISIT IN JUNE. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MA'AM. OKAY SO THIS BRINGS US TO NUMBER
