[14. SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT ]

AND I'M GONNA SPEAK TO THAT IN A LITTLE BIT HERE IN THE STATE OF THE DISTRICT PRESENTATIONS AVAILABLE ONLINE ON YOUTUBE. WE'VE GOTTEN THOUSANDS OF VIEWS THE PUBLIC WE ENCOURAGE YOU TO WATCH IT. AH UM AND WE ALSO LAST WEEK PUT TOGETHER OUR BACK TO SCHOOL VIDEO. SO I WANT TO THANK THE STAFF THAT HELPED PUT THAT TOGETHER AND THAT CAN ALSO BE ACCESSED ON OUR SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS. LATER IN THIS MEETING , AS WELL. THE BOARD WILL BE PRESENTED WITH OUR DISTRICTS PLAN TO ALLOCATE FUNDING FOR ARTS, MUSIC AND INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS. THIS IS A BLOCK GRANT. THIS IS ONE TIME MONEY. AND AS I CAME TO THE DISTRICT AND I STUDIED OUR CURRENT PROGRAMS, ONE OF THE MOST IMPACTFUL PROGRAMS I REMEMBER AS A KID AND ALSO, UM, YOU KNOW, AS AN EDUCATOR WAS OUTDOOR SCIENCE SCHOOL. I STILL REMEMBER SIXTH GRADE CAMP. AH, UM UNFORTUNATELY , WHAT I FOUND HERE WAS AS GREAT AS THE PROGRAM IS. WE HAD ABOUT HALF OF OUR SCHOOLS NOT GOING AND THE OTHER HALF GOING, AND SOME OF IT WAS FUNDING ISSUES. SOME OF IT WAS JUST PRIORITIES.

UM SO YOU WILL SEE, WE'RE MAKING THIS A PRIORITY. UM, THIS WAS AN EQUITY ISSUE. UM, WE TALK ABOUT EQUITY. THIS IS AN EQUITY ISSUE , AND SO WE'RE FIXING THAT, AND THIS YEAR EVERY SCHOOL WILL GO TO OUTDOOR SCIENCE SCHOOL. UM AND THE KIDS ARE GOING TO HAVE A GREAT TIME, SO REALLY EXCITED ABOUT THAT. UM. SO THE OTHER THING THAT YOU KNOW, SPEAKING OF THE FUTURE HOW ARE WE PREPARING STUDENTS FOR THE FUTURE? GOING BACK TO MY STATE OF THE DISTRICT REPORT? ONE OF THE THINGS WE TALKED ABOUT IS WHAT IF FUTURE JOBS LOOK LIKE IN 10 2030 YEARS. AND THERE'S A COMMON THREAD THROUGH ALL OF THESE PROJECTED FIELDS, AND THAT IS COMPUTER SCIENCE INTEGRATION OF COMPUTER SCIENCE INTO THESE FIELDS. SO I'VE BEEN IN DISCUSSION WITH OUR OUTSTANDING PRINCIPAL BETH FISHER. BERNARDO YORBA. UM SHE'S AN INNOVATOR. SHE'S AN EDUCATOR , AND WE'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT WAYS TO CREATE A SPECIALIZED SCHOOL. IN OUR DISTRICT, A DISTRICT SCHOOL, INFUSING COMPUTER SCIENCE AND OTHER CREATIVE INSTRUCTIONAL PRACTICES INTO THE SCHOOL. AH, UM AND SO NOT ONLY ARE WE LOOKING AT COMPUTER SCIENCE, WE'RE ALSO LOOKING AT FOUNDATIONAL MATHEMATICS AND I SPOKE TO THIS AS WELL WHEN WE TRANSITION TO COMMON CORE. AH, ONE OF THE ISSUES WITH COMMON COURT IN MATH. WAS IT LACKED FOUNDATIONAL MATHEMATICS, AND I'M A FORMER MATHEMATICS TEACHER. AH UM AND I WAS HAD THE BENEFIT OF TEACHING BEFORE COMMON CORE AND NOW WITH COMMON CORE, AND, UM ESPECIALLY FOR E. L STUDENTS, MATHEMATICS USED TO BE A WAY TO LEVEL THE PLAYING FIELD. UM NOW WITH COMMON CORE MATHEMATICS IS SO LANGUAGE BASED THAT EVEN OUR ENGLISH LANGUAGE LEARNERS REALLY STRUGGLE. IT'S HARD FOR PARENTS IN MANY CASES TO SUPPORT THEIR STUDENTS, BUT ALL ALL ALL LEVELS AND BACKGROUNDS UM AND SO THIS YEAR NOT ONLY ARE WE, UM, WHERE,

[00:25:05]

AND SO WE'RE REALLY EXCITED ABOUT THIS. WE'RE LOOKING AT HOW WHAT KIND OF MODEL AND DISCUSSING WITH, UM PRINCIPAL FISHER. WHAT DOES THIS LOOK LIKE? IS THIS GONNA BE A LAB SCHOOL, A CHARTER SCHOOL DISTRICT CHARTER SCHOOL. UM AH. UM A MAGNET. UM AND SO WE'RE STILL LOOKING AT THAT WE DO THINK THAT A DISTRICT CHARTER WOULD GIVE A LOT OF FLEXIBILITY WOULD BE FOR OUR KIDS, BUT WE CAN DESIGN THE CURRICULUM AND THE SCHEDULE HOW WE WANT SO THAT IS SOMETHING WHERE WE'RE REALLY EXCITED ABOUT BRINGING THIS DISTRICT UM, YOU KNOW, BEING AT THE TOP LEADER IN INNOVATION. BRINGING IN THE BEST TECHNOLOGY AND SO THERE WILL BE MORE TO COME ON THAT. UM BUT I WANTED TO GIVE YOU GIVE YOU THAT, UM TIDBIT, UM, ALSO U. S NEWS AND WORLD REPORT THE U. S NEWS AND WORLD REPORT. THEY RECENTLY RELEASED THEIR 23 24 BEST HIGH SCHOOL RANKINGS. AH AND MANY OF THE OUTLETS HAVE PUBLISHED. UM UM, RANKS SCHOOL PROGRAMS OVER THE YEARS, BUT THE U. S NEWS IS TYPICALLY ONE THAT PEOPLE REALLY LOOK TO, UM AND WE'RE PROUD TO ANNOUNCE THAT ALL FOUR OF OUR COMPREHENSIVE HIGH SCHOOLS WERE HIGHLY RANKED IN ELEMENTARY L. A METRO AREA. UM AND ACROSS THE NATION. ALL FOUR OF OUR CAMPUSES RANKED IN THE TOP 9% OF THE NATION'S 25,000 HIGH SCHOOLS. AND TOP 12% IN CALIFORNIA. SO THAT'S SOMETHING WE SHOULD REALLY BE PROUD OF. WE HAVE A SUPERINTENDENT'S ADVISORY COMMITTEE. ONE OF MY GOALS IS TO ENGAGE MORE COMMUNITY MEMBERS. UM AND SO WE'VE HAD OVER 170 APPLICATIONS, AND SO WE'RE GOING TO BE SELECTING OUR MEMBERS OF OUR ADVISORY COMMITTEES. WE HAVE FOUR COMMITTEES SO FAR, UM ELEMENTARY PARENT, MIDDLE SCHOOL PARENT HIGH SCHOOL PARENT, UM, AND WHEN I SAY PARENTS, IT'S OPEN TO THE COMMUNITY AS WELL. UM AND SPECIAL EDUCATION PARENT, UM, COMMITTEE AND SO THOSE MEANS WILL START IN OCTOBER. REALLY EXCITED ABOUT THAT? UM, AS WELL AH. COULD COULD I ASK A QUESTION ON THAT YOU HAD MENTIONED THAT YOU WERE TRYING TO GET EVERYBODY THAT APPLIED A SPACE? IS THAT STILL WHAT YOU'RE WORKING ON? HOW THAT WE'RE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT THE BEST WAY TO DO IT? UM WE HAD A LOT MORE THAN I EXPECTED, SO WE'LL HAVE TO DETERMINE THAT THE BEST WAY TO SELECT MEMBERS, SO IT'S A PRODUCTIVE GROUP PRODUCTIVE MEETING. UM PBS RECOGNITION SO 10 OF OUR CAMPUSES HAVE BEEN DISTINGUISHED BY CALIFORNIA P B. I S FOR EXCELLENCE AND IMPLEMENTING THE P B. I S INTERVENTIONS AND SUPPORTS. AS YOU KNOW, P B I S IS AN APPROACH THAT FOCUSES ON, UM UM, EMOTIONAL BEHAVIOR LEARNING OF STUDENTS, AND IT LEADS TO INCREASES INCREASING ENGAGEMENT. UM AND DECREASING BEHAVIORS. AND SO I WANT TO CONGRATULATE, UH, ROSE DRIVE.

WOODSBORO. AND YOUR BILL IN THE MIDDLE. THEY EARNED THE PLATINUM RECOGNITION AND WE HAVE, UH YEAH . PRINCIPAL NAPPIES HERE FORMERLY OF GROWTH. AH SO CONGRATULATIONS TO YOUR FORMER STAFF AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR WORK ON THAT AS WELL. AH, UM I WANT TO CONGRATULATE CRAMER AND GLENVIEW AND WAGNER FOR THE GOLD RECOGNITION. BROOKHAVEN BRYANT RANCH AND RUBY DRIVE FOR SILVER RECOGNITION. AND LAKEWOOD LIKE VIEW ELEMENTARY FOR A BRONZE RECOGNITION. AND FINALLY, I'D LIKE TO. AH, UM, REPORT TO THE BOARD THAT WE HAVE A NEW EXCITING PROGRAM WE'VE DEVELOPED HERE. UM IT'S A DIPLOMA BOUND PROGRAM ON THE CAMPUS OF EL CAMINO FOR SPECIAL EDUCATION.

STUDENTS UM, NO LONGER OUR STUDENTS GOING TO COMPLETE 12TH GRADE AND GET A CERTIFICATE OF COMPLETION. IF WE THINK THEY'RE CAPABLE OF GETTING A DIPLOMA, SO THESE STUDENTS WILL CONTINUE. UM THEY'LL GO TO EL CAMINO. UM AND THERE THEY LEARN THEIR DIPLOMA. UM IT'S SOMETHING WE'RE REALLY PROUD OF. WE'RE REALLY EXCITED ABOUT. WE'VE ALREADY STARTED AT THIS YEAR. WE HAVE, UM, SEVERAL STUDENTS ENROLLED IN THE PROGRAM AND WE HOPE TO GET MORE AND MORE, UM AND SO THE PROGRAM IS

[00:30:03]

THAT WAS A LOT OF GREAT INFORMATION. OKAY? THIS BRINGS US TO OUR PUBLIC COMMENT. YES IT

[15. PUBLIC COMMENT]

BUT REALLY, I'M HERE AS THE NHS INVITE ADVISOR AT YOUR ONE OF HIGH SCHOOL. I JUST WANT TO REALLY THANK OR AND GRADUALLY, 18 MINUTES OR ON HOLDING THAT SPOT. I THINK HE'S A GREAT STUDENT, TOO. REPRESENT THE STUDENTS OF YOUR BELINDA PRESENT YOUR BELINDA SO GOOD JOB. THANK YOU. AWESOME. THANK YOU. MISS JONES. HI GOOD EVENING. MY NAME IS CARLA JONES. I JUST STARTED MY 27TH YEARS OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION TEACHER AT KRAMER MIDDLE SCHOOL. MY ENTIRE CAREER AT CRAMER. I AM THRILLED WITH THE INCREASED OPPORTUNITIES FOR ACTORS SQUAD ATHLETICS AT THE MIDDLE SCHOOL AND ELEMENTARY LEVEL. HOWEVER MY CONCERN TODAY IS WITH THE POTENTIAL APPROVAL OF ITEMS 24.1 DASH ZERO. SOCCER AND EIGHT WEEK PROGRAM AT 19 ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS AT THE COST OF $280,000.24. DASH ONE PICKLEBALL FOR EIGHT WEEKS AT 14 ELEMENTARY'S AT THE COST OF 176,960. AND 24.1 DASH TWO BASKETBALL AT ONE MIDDLE SCHOOL 16 ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS TO 13 WEEKS PROGRAMS AT THE COST OF 100. 1005 $155. FOR A TOTAL OF $485,515. ALTHOUGH I UNDERSTAND THIS MONEY COMES FROM DIFFERENT BUDGETS. THE PRICE TAG IS CONCERNING SINCE THE AVERAGE PHYSICAL EDUCATION BUDGET IS BETWEEN $800,000 FOR THE ENTIRE SCHOOL FOR AN ENTIRE YEAR. I LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING MORE ABOUT THIS LATER IN THE MEETING. THANK YOU. JOSH? YES, SIR. HI MY NAME IS JOSH READER. I'M APPARENT WITH TWO CHILDREN CURRENTLY ENROLLED IN PBL USD IN ONE OF DR TURNESS FIRST MONDAY MESSAGES, HE SAID HIS EDUCATIONAL PHILOSOPHY COULD BE SOMETHING AS PUTTING KIDS FIRST, AND I AGREE. I WAS INSPIRED TO SPEAK TONIGHT AFTER SEEING THAT, FRANKLY HORRIFYING VIDEOS OF LAST WEEK'S ORANGE UNIFIED BOARD MEETING. MY FRIEND IS AN ORANGE UNIFIED PARENT WHO ATTENDS THEIR BOARD MEETINGS REGULARLY. THIS WEEKEND. SHE TOLD ME SHE NEVER FELT SO THREATENED IN HER LIFE. WALKING INTO THAT MEETING, SHE SAID, FELT LIKE WALKING INTO A LION'S DEN. THE RAGE AND HATE. I SEE SPEWING FROM RECENT BOARD MEETINGS AROUND THE REGION STEM FROM THE SO CALLED PARENTAL NOTIFICATION POLICIES FOCUSING ON LGBTQ YOUTH. I'LL BE CLEAR. I FIND THESE POLICIES TO BE ABHORRENT ATTACKS ON SOME OF OUR MOST VULNERABLE STUDENTS. THEY DON'T PROTECT KIDS. THEY PUT TARGETS ON THEM. RUSTY BLADES HAS SAID IN AN ONLINE INTERVIEW THAT SHE'S WORKING ON A NOTIFICATION POLICY FOR OUR DISTRICT. IT'S OBVIOUSLY NOT ON THE AGENDA TONIGHT. THE REASON I'VE CHOSEN TO SPEAK TONIGHT NOT AS A CRISIS ACTOR OR A VIDEO BLOGGER OR POLITICAL OPERATIVE BUT AGAIN AS AN ACTUAL PARENT AND VOTER. IS THAT I DON'T THINK I'D BE HEARD IF I TRIED TO SPEAK AT THE TYPE OF THE MEETING ORANGE UNIFIED, JUST HAD MAYBE HERE ON A RELATIVELY QUIET TUESDAY, MY VOICE WILL MEAN SOMETHING. ABOARD POLICY THAT EQUATES TO KIDS. GENDER IDENTITY WITH A MENTAL ILLNESS IS ILLEGAL . THERE IS NO WAY THAT TYPE OF DISCRIMINATION COULD EVER BE PUTTING KIDS FIRST GIVING ADVICE . IF IT IS IT'S PUTTING POLITICS FIRST. AND DISTRICTS WHO PASSED . THESE POLICIES ARE ALREADY BEING SUED BY THE STATE. IMAGINE HOW MUCH OF OUR LIMITED FINANCIAL RESOURCES IT WOULD COST FOR A DISTRICT TO BE CAUGHT

[00:35:03]

I'M LINDA MANNION, PRESIDENT OF THE ASSOCIATION OF PLACENTAL INTO EDUCATORS. AND UM, I'M HERE TONIGHT ON BEHALF OF 95% I REPRESENT 95% OF THE TEACHERS IN THIS DISTRICT. A NEW SCHOOL YEAR MEANS A NEW BEGINNINGS. NEW ADVENTURES, NEW FRIENDSHIPS AND NEW CHALLENGES. THE SLATE IS CLEAN AND ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN. THIS YEAR IS OFF TO A WONDERFUL START EXEMPLIFIES ALL THESE NEW BEGINNINGS. APPLE'S MODEL MOTTO HAS ALWAYS BEEN TEACHING IS A WORK OF THE HEART. WHERE OUR DECISIONS ARE STUDENT CENTERED TO ENSURE THAT OUR CLASSROOMS ARE A NURTURING ENVIRONMENT WHERE EVERY STUDENT FEELS VALUED AND SAFE AND CAN ACHIEVE THEIR PERSONAL BEST. WITH THAT GOAL IN MIND. WE'RE SO APPRECIATIVE OF OUR COLLABORATIVE RELATIONSHIP WITH THE DISTRICT. AND THE SHARED VALUES THAT WE HAVE ESTABLISHED AND WORKING TOGETHER FOR OUR STUDENTS. WE SPECIFICALLY WANT TO THANK DR CHARNESS FOR INSPIRING US ALL. AT THE PRE SERVICE SYMPOSIUM WITH HIS VISION OF ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE TO MEET THE CHALLENGES OF THE FUTURE. WE THANK DR YOUNG FOR HER WORK WITH US. TO PROVIDE CURRICULAR PATHWAYS TO ACHIEVE THE DISTRICT VISION OF EXCELLENCE. WE THANK DR GATES. FOR ENSURING THAT WE CONTINUE TO HAVE THE BEST AND THE BRIGHTEST NEW EDUCATORS TO LEAD US INTO THE FUTURE. AND WE THINK NANCY BLADE FOR ALWAYS BEING A ROCK. ROCK OF STABILITY FOR ALL OF US BY LEADING WITH COURAGE, PASSION AND WISDOM.

VINCENT VAN GOGH SAID. I AM SEEKING. I AM STRIVING AND I'M IN IT WITH ALL MY HEART. THE SAME CAN BE SAID FOR OUR TEACHERS. THEY ARE SEEKING. THEY ARE STRIVING. AND THEY ARE IN IT WITH ALL THEIR HEARTS. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, UH, THE NEXT FOUR SPEAKERS. MEGAN MUD, MARCO.

KIMBERLY RACHET. JEANNIE PEAK. AND JENNIFER. OR JUDO'S. MAKING YOUR FIRST HELLO. GOOD EVENING.

TRUST YOU. STAFF THANK YOU ALL FOR BEING HERE TONIGHT. I'M HERE WITH A COUPLE OF QUICK COMMENTS.

MY FIRST IS ABOUT STUDENT TEACHERS. I KNOW THAT WE HAVE A COUPLE OF ITEMS IN THE HR AGENDA. ABOUT STUDENT TEACHING AGREEMENTS. SPECIFICALLY I KNOW WE'VE REQUESTED A COUPLE OF TIMES TO SEE THE NUMBERS OF REQUESTED STUDENT TEACHERS AND KIND OF FILL RATE BOTH HISTORICALLY AND CURRENTLY. BE HAPPY TO STAND CORRECTED IF THAT'S POSTED SOMEWHERE, AND I JUST MISSED IT. IF YOU COULD DIRECT ME TO WHERE WE COULD FIND THOSE NUMBERS, I WOULD CERTAINLY APPRECIATE IT. WE WANT TO BE SURE THAT WE ARE SUPPORTING YOUR TEACHERS AND ALSO HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO, UM RECRUIT. THE BEST AND BRIGHTEST OF THE NEXT TEACHING COHORT. THE NEXT ITEM THAT I WANTED TO TALK ABOUT REALLY QUICKLY IS BASED ON, UM THE CHANCELLOR OF THE COMMUNITY COLLEGES, NEW VISION 2030. THEN THERE IS A FOCUS ON NEW EXPANDED DUAL ENROLLMENT OPTIONS AND CONSIDERABLE FUNDING THAT'S ASSOCIATED WITH THOSE WHO ENROLLMENT OPTIONS. I DID SEE THAT WE'RE OFFERING AN ADDITIONAL THREE CLASSES. BUT BASED ON OUR CONSIDERATION OF CHARTERS AND OTHER THINGS OF THAT NATURE IN ORDER TO SERVE OUR STUDENTS BETTER BEING INTERESTED TO KNOW WHAT OUR EVALUATION OF EARLY COLLEGE HIGH SCHOOLS UM, HAVE BEEN HISTORICALLY AND IF THAT'S SOMETHING WE COULD CONSIDER IN THE FUTURE. AND THEN MY LAST ONE WAS ABOUT THE SCHEDULE AND THE ONGOING CONVERSATION ABOUT MOVING IT EARLIER IN THE YEAR.

CERTAINLY THERE ARE SCHEDULED CONSIDERATIONS. FOR PARENTS WORKING STUDENTS AND OTHER DISTRICTS. THINGS OF THAT NATURE , BUT I WANT TO BE SURE THAT AS PART OF OUR CONSIDERATION WERE ALSO CONSIDERING OUR FACILITIES. STAND WITH INCREASING TRIPLE DIGIT DEGREE DAYS. WILDFIRES HISTORICALLY AND INTERRUPTIONS TO EDUCATION. BEING ONE OF THE BIGGEST. DIFFICULT TO USE IN

[00:40:05]

BUT REGARDLESS OF THAT, I THINK MY CONCERN IS THAT WE HAVE 22,312 STUDENTS IN THE SCHOOL DISTRICT T. K THROUGH EIGHT IS ALMOST 15,000 OF THAT. SO HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS REPRESENT 7500.

I CAN'T GET NUMBERS FOR WHO'S AN AP AND WHO'S IN SPORTS? SO I MEAN, I GUESS, SPLIT IT. LET'S JUST SAY 50% 50% OF THOSE 7500 STUDENTS ARE IN A P OR IN SPORTS, WHICH IS THE ARGUMENT THAT I KEEP HEARING. OF WHY THE DISTRICT AND WHY A LOT OF PEOPLE WANT TO MOVE THE CALENDAR. I GUESS MY QUESTION WOULD BE SO 3500 STUDENTS ARE AN AP CLASSES THAT REQUIRE TESTING TO BE DONE AFTER THE CHRISTMAS BREAK, WHICH I THINK THAT'S AN ARGUMENT AND THEN TO SPORTS STARTING IN THE SUMMER EARLIER, NOT REALLY UNDERSTANDING THAT REGARDLESS OF ALL OF THAT, I DON'T KNOW WHY WE'RE MAKING THE 1% ADJUST TO THE 99% OF THE MAJORITY OF MY STUDENT IS NOT AN AP OR IN SPORTS. IT DOESN'T AFFECT HER WHATSOEVER, SO I FEEL VERY STRONGLY UPON NOT CHANGING THE SCHOOL CALENDAR TO ACCOMMODATE SPECIFIC STUDENTS THAT EITHER KNOW FULL WELL HAVE A CHOICE.

GOING INTO A P CLASSES. THE PAST RATES 86% IT'S NOT LIKE THESE KIDS ARE NOT STUDYING OR NOT FAILING. MOST AP STUDENTS AREN'T IN SPORTS ANYWAY, SO AGAIN STRONGLY OPPOSED TO MAKING 15,000 FAMILIES AND STUDENTS ADJUST THEIR SCHOOL CALENDAR TO START AT THE BEGINNING. I PERSONALLY LIKE THE THREE WEEKS OF, YOU KNOW, CHEAPER SUMMERS AND TRAVELING AND WHATNOT. IT'S BEEN THAT WAY FOR 40 FOR A LONG TIME IN THIS DISTRICT, SO I WOULD JUST SAY THAT I WOULD STRONGLY OPPOSE MOVING THE ACADEMIC CALENDAR SOONER THAN WHAT WE HAVE RIGHT NOW, IF ANYTHING AFTER LIBERTY THANK YOU VERY. STATE YOUR NAME? MY NAME IS JEANNIE PICK AND I'M HERE AGAIN TO COMMENT ABOUT THE CALENDAR ISSUE. FIRST I WANT TO SAY THAT I'M NOT UP HERE FOR MYSELF. I'M UP HERE FOR THE 500. PLUS PEOPLE WHO SIGNED MY PETITION. SINCE I STARTED IT, I REMAIN COMMITTED AND YOU HAVE THOSE 500 PLUS NAMES ALREADY. SECOND AS FAR AS OPINIONS AND PERSONAL VALUES GO, THEY ARE ALL VALID AND EQUAL. THOSE WHO LOVE LATE SUMMER'S DON'T HAVE BETTER OR WORSE VALUES THAN THOSE WHO PREFER MORE TIME FOR AP CLASSES. THE FAMILY WHO LIKES HAWAII IN LATE AUGUST IS NOT A BETTER FAMILY THAN THE ONE WHO LIKES ASIA IN EARLY JUNE. IT'S NOT A MORAL ISSUE. NO ONE CAN BE THE JUDGE OF WHICH PREFERENCES BETTER BECAUSE EVERY FAMILY IS DIFFERENT. SO WHAT I WANT TO SAY TO THE BOARD IS THAT YOU CANNOT PLAY JUDGE EITHER. YOU'LL NEVER GET ANYWHERE TRYING TO PRIORITIZE WHICH OPINION IS MORE IMPORTANT, AND IT'S NOT YOUR JOB EITHER. I THINK YOU HAVE TWO OPTIONS. ONE IS TO DECIDE THAT THE CALENDAR IS A PURELY SUBJECTIVE MATTER. A MAJORITY RULES TYPE OF THING. IF YOU WANT TO CONSIDER OPINIONS AT ALL, THEN DO IT RIGHT AND MAKE IT A COMPLETELY FAIR AND TRANSPARENT VOTE. SEND A BALLOT TO EVERY STAKEHOLDER IN MULTIPLE LANGUAGES, SO EVERYONE UNDERSTANDS AND GIVE EVERYONE THE OPPORTUNITY TO CAST THEIR VOTE OFFICIALLY FAIR AND SQUARE.

LET THE PEOPLE DECIDE. THE SECOND OPTION IS TO CONSIDER THE CALENDAR OBJECTIVELY, LEAVE OUT ALL OPINIONS AND MAKE IT A DECISION ABOUT STUDENTS. WHAT'S IN THEIR BEST ACADEMIC AND ATHLETIC INTERESTS. THAT'S THE AREA THAT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY. YOU CAN BE THE JUDGE OF THAT, JUST LIKE YOU MAKE OTHER DECISIONS LIKE LEAVING THE SCHOOL BOARD ASSOCIATION OR HIRING AND EDUCATE EDUCATION CONSULTANT. YOU JUST DO IT. NO SURVEYS. YOU HAVE THE AUTONOMY TO DECIDE WHAT'S BEST WITHIN THE GOALS OF A PUBLIC SCHOOL EDUCATION, AND MY FRIEND IS GOING TO CONTINUE. JENNIFER OR WHO DOES. BUT IT'S ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO CONSIDER BOTH OPTIONS AT THE SAME TIME. YOU CANNOT BALANCE EDUCATIONAL INTERESTS WITH OPINIONS, WHETHER IT'S WHAT YOU READ ON SOCIAL MEDIA. WHAT'S YOUR FRIENDS TELL YOU OR BY RALLY, TALLYING THE

[00:45:03]

OR ALONG A SIMILAR VEIN OF THOUGHT. YOU CAN KEEP K THROUGH EIGHT TRADITIONAL AND START OUR HIGH SCHOOLS EARLIER, WHICH IS WHAT SOME DISTRICTS DO. YOUR MAIN RESPONSIBILITY IS TO MAKE DECISIONS IN THE BEST EDUCATIONAL INTERESTS OF OUR STUDENTS AND OUR SCHOOLS AND TO SUPPORT AND PREPARE STUDENTS FOR THE FUTURE. WE DIDN'T ELECT YOU TO SEND BALLOTS FOR GATHER OPINIONS. I HOPE YOU FOCUS ON THE OBJECTIVE AND MAKE THE CALENDAR ABOUT EDUCATION. JUST LIKE THE MAJORITY OF OTHER DISTRICTS HAVE DONE. LET'S LOOK AT THIS TOPIC FROM ANOTHER ANGLE . WHAT EDUCATIONAL BENEFIT IS THERE TO ANYONE BY LEAVING THE CALENDAR THE SAME NONE AT ALL.

SOME PEOPLE SAY THE NUMBERS OF A P I B STUDENTS ARE TOO SMALL TO CONSIDER. BUT IT DEPENDS ON HOW YOU LOOK AT IT. WE CAN LOOK AT IT IN TERMS OF THE NUMBER OF EXAMS MINISTER ADMINISTERED NOT HOW MANY DIFFERENT STUDENTS TAKE THEM. EACH EXAM SHOULD STAND ON ITS OWN. IN 2022, A TOTAL OF 4112 EXAMS. PLUS 480. I BE EXAMS WERE ADMINISTERED AMONG THE FOUR HIGH SCHOOLS. THAT'S ALMOST 4600 EXAMS GIVEN OUT OF ROUGHLY 7600 HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS. THAT'S ABOUT SIX EXAMS BEING GIVEN FOR EVERY 10 STUDENTS OR ONE EXAM FOR 1.7 STUDENTS. THAT'S A LOT. ONE BENEFIT NOT MENTIONED IS THAT STARTING EARLIER WILL ALSO GIVE MORE TIME TO PREPARE FOR STATE TESTING, CAST AND HELP WHICH WILL THEN BETTER REFLECT WHAT OUR STUDENTS HAVE ACTUALLY LEARNED. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MA'AM. OKAY OKAY, ARE REMAINING THREE INCLUDE MISS JANET CHANG. JENNY BRUMER. AND NICK BROWN.

MISS CHANG, YOU WILL BE FIRST. HOWEVER, SHOES. MISS CHENG. SOMEBODY CHECK AND SEE IF MISS CHANG'S OUT IN THE FOR YOUR AREA. OKAY, SHE'S NOT OKAY. ALL RIGHT, THEN. GO AHEAD, MISS. MR BREMER. I AM JENNY BREMER. CAN YOU HEAR ME IN THE BACK? OKAY I KNOW IT'S REALLY HARD TO HEAR IN THE BACK AND THANK YOU FOR SAYING MY NAME CORRECTLY. I REALLY APPRECIATE THAT. UM I SPOKE LAST MONTH ABOUT THE SAME TOPIC. I WANT TO TALK ABOUT THIS MONTH, AND THAT IS NALOXONE.

THAT'S IN ALL OF OUR SCHOOLS AGAIN. I THANK YOU LAST MONTH, EVERYBODY FOR APPROVING THAT.

THAT'S FANTASTIC. UM I AFTER I SPOKE LAST MONTH, I TALKED TO MY PRINCIPAL WHO WAS SO SUPPORTIVE AND GREAT. SO KUDOS TO JOEY DAVIS. AND BUT WE FOUND OUT THAT THE NALOXONE IS KEPT AT THE E D STATION. UM WHICH THE CLOSEST ONE TO MY CLASSROOM IS ACROSS THE QUAD BEHIND THE LIBRARY.

THIS IS VERY PROBLEMATIC. NALOXONE IF YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT IT NEEDS TO BE MEASURED IMMEDIATELY TO KEEP THE PERSON ALIVE WHILE THE AMBULANCE GETS THERE. WE DON'T HAVE. I CAN'T LEAVE AN OD KID WITH 37 KIDS FREAKING OUT TO GO OVER TO GET THE E D GET IT OPEN. GET IT OVER TO MY ROOM. THE KIDS DEAD BY THAT POINT. WE NEED TO HAVE THESE IN OUR EMERGENCY BACKPACKS. IT COSTS NOTHING. IT'S A 13 MINUTES. VIDEO TRAINING. THERE'S NO DOWNSIDE HERE. THE WAY WE HAVE IT RIGHT NOW. IT'S LIKE HAVING THE FIRE EXTINGUISHER AT THE LIBRARY. BY THE TIME YOU GET AT THE BUILDINGS BURNED DOWN, AND THIS IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN OUR BUILDING. THESE ARE KIDS. THERE IS A ORGANIZATION CALLED SOLAS FOUNDATION OF ORANGE COUNTY, AND THEY OFFER NALOXONE TRAINING ONLINE 13 MINUTE VIDEO AND THEY WILL SEND YOU FREE BOXES. SO FOR ALL THE TEACHERS AND COMMUNITY MEMBERS IF YOU HAVE A KID, BASICALLY YOU HAVE A KID. IT'S A GOOD IDEA TO HAVE JUST LIKE YOU'D HAVE ANY OTHER EMERGENCY SUPPLIES. SO I IMPLORE YOU.

PLEASE TAKE ACTION. LET'S GET THIS IN OUR EMERGENCY BACKPACKS SO THAT WE MAKE SURE WE DON'T LOSE KIDS. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR LISTENING. I LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING FROM YOU. STATE YOUR NAME? MY NAME IS NICK BROWN. I'M HERE ADDRESSING THE BOARD OF EDUCATION AND THE SUPERINTENDENT ABOUT THE RECENT CONSIDERATION REGARDING THE MOVE OF THE START AND END DATES FOR THE 2024 2025 SCHOOL YEAR. I AM NOT. I AM AN OPPOSITION OF THIS CONSIDERATION BECAUSE OF THE FACT THAT IT DOES NOT BENEFIT ELEMENTARY SCHOOL STUDENTS, MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS, MANY HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS OR FACULTY. IT ALSO WOULD CHANGE THE DATE OF THE FIRST SEMESTER FINAL FOR HIGH

[00:50:05]

[16. BOARD REPORT ]

SO GOING BACK AND UM, HAVING THAT FIRST DAY FIRST WEEK. UM NO MEMORY IS VERY SWEET, BUT, YOU KNOW, BRINGS A LITTLE TEAR TEAR TO YOUR EYE. UM, I DID GET TO GO TO THE ELDORADO OF FLAG FOOTBALL GAME WOMEN'S FLAG FOOTBALL GAME . THAT WAS EXCITING TO WITNESS THAT FOR THE FIRST TIME. UM AND SEE THEM WHEN I WENT A LITTLE EARLY THINKING IT WAS THE VARSITY GAME, BUT I GOT TO EXPERIENCE JV AND VARSITY. SO IT WAS FUN. UM WHEN I WAS ACTUALLY I WANT TO GO BACK JUST A MINUTE TO ONE OF THE SCHOOLS THAT I VISITED, SO CIRCLING BACK TO WHAT YOU HAD MENTIONED ABOUT COMPUTER SCIENCE. I WAS IN ONE CLASSROOM BELIEVE IT WAS FOURTH GRADE AND THEY HAD DONE A COUPLE OF, UM, SURVEYS ON WHAT THEY LIKED BEST. THE FIRST ONE WAS, DO THEY LIKE MATH, SCIENCE, SOCIAL STUDIES OR LANGUAGE ARTS ? THE MAJORITY OF THE STUDENTS LIKE SCIENCE, BUT THE ONE THAT WE WALKED INTO INITIALLY WAS THEY WERE, THEY WERE IN SEPARATE AREAS OF THE ROOM, AND THEY HAD TO PICK IF THEY LIKED MOVIES. V SHOW WATCHING TV, READING A BOOK OR PLAYING VIDEO GAMES. I WAS STUNNED AT THE WAY THAT IT ALL PLAYED OUT. THERE WERE TWO THAT I LIKE TO READ BOOKS. THERE WERE TWO THAT LIKE TO WATCH MOVIES. THERE WERE TWO THAT LIKE TO WATCH TV SHOWS AND THE REST OF THEM ALL LOVE VIDEO GAMES AND THAT'S WHAT THEY DO SO PLAYING INTO THE COMPUTER SCIENCE. I THINK THAT IS SPOT ON WITH WHAT OUR KIDS ARE INTERESTED IN AND CREATING THAT OPPORTUNITY FOR THEM TO FIND SOMETHING THAT THEY REALLY LOVE AND BUILD THAT INTO SCHOOL IS GREAT. I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING WHERE THAT'S GONNA GO. UM WE HAD R O. C S B A BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEETING LAST WEEK AND OUR NEW PRESIDENT THIS YEAR IS LAUREN BROOKS FROM IRVINE UNIFIED AND OUR VICE PRESIDENT IS MICHELLE BARTO FROM NEWPORT, MESA. WE HAVE A DINNER MEETING COMING UP IN OCTOBER.

I'M ACTUALLY IT'S WE'VE GOT A LOT OF CONFLICTS THAT NIGHT, SO I'M NOT SURE IF ANY OF US WILL ACTUALLY BE MAKING IT. I'M GOING TO BE AT THE WOMEN IN INDUSTRY. EVENT I KNOW WE HAVE THE STATE OF THE CITY FOR YOUR BELINDA AS WELL, UM, AT THE SAME TIME, SO LOT OF THINGS HAPPENING IN THE BUILDING AND BEGINNING OF THE SCHOOL YEAR, BUT ALL MAKE SURE I KEEP YOU IN THE LOOP ON ALL OF THAT. AND THEN, UH, THE C N A C, WHICH IS THE CHILD NUTRITION ADVISORY COUNCIL. UM OUR FIRST QUARTERLY MEETING OF THE SCHOOL YEAR IS COMING UP ON 9 25, WHICH IS TWO WEEKS FROM YESTERDAY. UM AND I'LL COME BACK RIGHT AFTER THAT, AND REPORT WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT.

UM SECOND, I WOULD LOVE TO WELCOME AIDEN AND I LOOK FORWARD TO GETTING TO KNOW HIM BETTER AND THE NEXT COUPLE OF MONTHS OF SCHOOL BOARD MEETINGS AND I'M GRATEFUL FOR HIS SERVICE TO OUR DISTRICT AND RSTUDENTS. I WAS AA FEW THINGS IN THIS MONTH, WAS ABLE TO ATTEND THE SYMPOSIUM INSTEAD OF THE DISTRICT AND UM, IT'S ALWAYS GREAT TO RECONNECT WITH OUR UM LEADERSHIP. IN OUR DISTRICT AND ENDURE CITIES. I ALSO ATTENDED THE SUMMER GRADUATION WITH PRESIDENT YOUNGBLOOD AND UM, IT WAS GREAT TO HONOR OUR STUDENTS FROM THREE DIFFERENT HIGH SCHOOLS THAT ARE IN THERE TO FINISH THEIR DIPLOMAS OVER THE SUMMER. I ALSO ATTENDED MY VERY FIRST GIRLS LIKE FOOTBALL GAME, UM FOR AND GOT TO WATCH THE ELDORADO VARSITY AND J B PARTICIPATE.

AND IF YOU WANT MORE INFORMATION I HAVE USING CONTACT FOR A CAMPBELL. SHE'S A COUNCIL MEMBER AT ANY OF YOUR BELINDA AND ALSO , UM, MRS NEWTON, WHERE YOU TURN IN YOUR BLUE CARDS HAS A COUPLE OF FLYERS IF YOU'RE INTERESTED, UM IT'S OPEN TO HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS GET COMMUNITY SERVICE HOURS. YEAH IT REALLY IS. GOOD EXPOSURE TO HAVE, UM CITY. FUNCTION AND MANAGE AND THAT IS ALL I HAVE FOR MY REPORT TODAY. AWESOME. THANK YOU, TRUSTY ANDERSON. FEELING BETTER AND GET BACK TO YOU SOON. OKAY AH, TRUSTEE. FRAZIER. DID YOU HAVE ANYTHING? YES HELLO, EVERYBODY GET I AM, UH, SORRY TO NOT BE ABLE TO BE THERE TONIGHT. UM UNAVOIDABLE BUSINESS CONFLICT, BUT I'M GLAD THAT WE HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO TECHNOLOGY TO BE ABLE TO STILL ATTEND. EVEN THOUGH NOT IN PERSON, UM REALLY EXCITED FOR THE START OF THE SCHOOL YEAR. AND GETTING TO SEE KIDS BACK IN CLASSROOMS AND BUSSES RUNNING AROUND THE STREETS. IT'S PRETTY GREAT. I'VE BEEN ABLE TO ATTEND. ACTUALLY, I'M KIND OF PARTIAL TO THE GIRLS LIKE FOOTBALL, SEEING THAT TWO OF MY GIRLS. WELL, BOTH OF MY GIRLS ARE ON THE ESPERANZA TEAM , SO I'M A LITTLE BIT PARTIAL, BUT I HAVE GOT TO SEE THREE OF OUR FOUR HIGH SCHOOL TEAMS PLAY . IT'S BEEN REALLY A LOT OF FUN . I'M EXCITED TO SEE WHERE THAT GOES AND GETTING THE THING THAT I'VE NOTICED, AT LEAST WITH THE ESPERANZA TEAM. THERE'S A LOT OF GIRLS THAT PLAY DIFFERENT SPORTS THAT NORMALLY WOULDN'T INTERACT . WE GOT SOFTBALL PLAYERS WE'VE GOT, UM LACROSSE PLAYERS WHO'VE GOT WRESTLERS. WE'VE GOT WATER POLO PLAYERS AND WE'VE GOT BASKETBALL PLAYERS. AND THEY'VE THEY'VE BEEN ABLE TO CONNECT IN WAYS THAT THEY HADN'T BEFORE. SO THAT'S ONE THING I REALLY LOVE ABOUT. TEAM SPORTS IS CONNECTING WITH PEOPLE AND CREATING RELATIONSHIPS THAT WHETHER THEY ARE LONG LASTING OR NOT. IT'S JUST A GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO INTERACT WITH OTHER PEOPLE AND JUST LEARN TO WORK TOGETHER, SO I'M I'M EXCITED ABOUT THIS. THIS NEW CHANGE AND THEN I DO JUST WANT TO MAKE ONE MORE COMMENT ABOUT THE AH THE DIRECTION THAT DR TURNESS IS LOOKING INTO WITH THE TECHNOLOGY AND THE SCIENCE AND EVERYTHING RELATED TO THE NEW POTENTIAL OF HAVING A SPECIALTY SCHOOL IN THE DISTRICT . AIN'T THAT'S EXTREMELY IMPORTANT. AS I'VE SAID ALMOST EVERY BOARD ME I'M A HUGE FAN OF OUR CAREER TECHNIC TECHNICAL EDUCATION PATHWAYS. AND HAVING MORE OPPORTUNITY FOR STUDENTS TO GAIN SKILLS THAT WILL FURTHER THEM OUTSIDE. THE CLASSROOM IS WHAT WE'RE HERE FOR. JUST COMES BACK TO THE STATE OF THE DISTRICT. UM STATEMENT THAT DR TURNER GATES WHERE EVERYONE WOULD BE, UH, THE KICKOFF MEETING THAT WE'RE TRYING TO PREPARE THESE CHILDREN FOR JOBS THAT DON'T EVEN EXIST YET, AND I THINK THAT'S ONE OF THE HUGE AREAS WHERE WE CAN MAKE A BIG WE CAN MAKE A BIG PLAY FOR THESE KIDS TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN THE FUTURE IS BY ADDING SOMETHING

[01:00:02]

UM THAT'S NOT A POLICY THAT I'M LOOKING TO ADOPT IN OUR DISTRICT. SO THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU FOR THAT CLARIFICATION. ALRIGHT LET'S SEE FOR MYSELF. I DID ATTEND THE STATE OF THE DISTRICT ADDRESS. UM IT WAS IT WAS DEFINITELY, UM , PUT OUT WELL LOVED SEEING ALL OF OUR MANAGERS AND IN LEADERSHIP THERE. IT WAS A SCARY VIDEO THAT YOU SHOWED I'M STILL HAVING SOME NIGHTMARES ABOUT A I AND HOW IT COULD PROGRESS. SO THANK YOU FOR THAT. UM ASIDE FROM THAT I WENT TO THE SUMMER GRADUATION WITH TRUSTY ANDERSON . IT'S AMAZING TO HAVE STUDENTS THAT ARE DETERMINED TO GET THEIR DIPLOMA AND IN ORDER TO DO SO. THESE ARE SOME SELF MOTIVATED KIDS AND, UM IT WAS REALLY HONORED TO BE THERE SO UM. NEXT I WENT TO THE FIRST RESPONDER

[01:05:03]

[17. ACTION ITEMS - GENERAL FUNCTIONS ]

[18. ACTION ITEMS - BUSINESS SERVICES ]

IT'S AVAILABLE ONLINE AS WELL. PURSUANT EDUCATION CARRIED 4 TO 100. IT REQUIRES US TO PRESENT THE UNAUDITED ACTUALS TO THE GOVERNING BOARD ON OR BEFORE SEPTEMBER, 15TH. AFTER APPROVAL , THE DATA WILL BE SUBMITTED TO THE COUNTING AND TO THE STATE. UM AND THEN WE WILL RETURN TO THE BOARD IN JANUARY OF 2024 WITH OUR FINAL AUDITED FINANCIAL REPORTS AFTER THE ARE EXTERNAL AUDITORS COMPLETE THEIR WORK. SO FIRST, LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT OUR SPECIFIC COMPONENTS OF OUR ENDING FUND ENDING GENERAL FUND BALANCE FOR LAST YEAR. IF YOU RECALL IN JUNE, WE REPORTED, OR WE PROJECTED THAT THE DISTRICT WOULD CLOSE WITH 65.1 MILLION IN OUR UNRESTRICTED ENDING FUND BALANCE. ARE UNAUDITED, ACTUAL UNRESTRICTED ENDING FUND BALANCE CAME IN AT $66 MILLION. SO THE DIFFERENCE IS 900,000, WHICH ROUGHLY EQUATES TO 0.26% VARIANTS BASED ON OUR ESTIMATED EXPENDITURES. WHAT YOU'LL NOTICE IS THAT WE HAVE A $73.4 MILLION RESTRICTED RESERVE BALANCE. THIS IS LARGELY DUE TO THE VERY LARGE RESTRICTED PROGRAMS THAT WE'VE BEEN CARRYING OVER INTO 23 24.

AH! EXAMPLES INCLUDE THE EXTENDED THE EXPANDED LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES PROGRAM, ARTS, MUSIC AND INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS. BLOCK GRANT TURNING RECOVERY, EMERGENCY BLOCK GRANT

[01:10:01]

THIS ALSO ASSUMES THAT WE MAINTAIN THE SAME STAFFING AND OUR BUT OUR EXPENDITURES CONTINUE TO GROW, AND WE'LL TALK ABOUT SOME OF THOSE. EXPENDITURES. BEFORE I GO INTO THE OTHER DISTRICT FUNDS. I WANTED TO TURN IT OVER TO DR ERNEST A FEW WORDS. YES SO HISTORICALLY, THE BOARD HASN'T WE HAVEN'T BEEN PRESENTING OUR OTHER FUNDS. AND SO IT'S IMPORTANT. WE START DOING THAT. UM SO, UM, UH, MR STEIN IS GOING TO GO THROUGH OUR OTHER FUNDS HERE AND THEN WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A STUDY SESSION TO LOOK AT THESE OTHER FUNDS. AH AND TALK ABOUT HOW WE'RE GOING TO ALLOCATE THIS MONEY. WE'RE TALKING ABOUT FACILITY MONEY.

WE'RE TALKING ABOUT CAFETERIA FOOD SERVICE MONEY, UM, CHILD DEVELOPMENT MONEY, SO I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT MOVING FORWARD THAT THESE FUNDS ARE ALWAYS PRESENTED TO THE BOARD. UM AND THE COMMUNITY IN EVERY BUDGET PRESENTATION WE DO. CAN I CAN I BREAK IN? UM I JUST WENT BACK FOUR YEARS AND I NOTICED THAT NONE OF THESE OTHER FUNDS LIKE IN THE EXCESS OF LIKE $43 MILLION WHEREVER REPORTED TO THE BOARD. SO MY QUESTION IS, IS WHY AND I DON'T KNOW. OBVIOUSLY THIS IS NOT YOU DOING THIS, BUT WHY WOULD THIS HAPPEN IS THIS LEGAL IS THE BEST PRACTICE? I MEAN, THAT'S $43 MILLION THAT THE BOARD HAS NO IDEAS IN OUR DISTRICT. SO THE FUNDS ARE IN. I CAN ANSWER THAT. THE FUNDS WERE IN THE BUDGET PRESENTED TO THE BOARD THAT THE BOARD APPROVES.

UM. AH THAT'S A BIG DOCUMENT GRANTED, BUT THE FUNDS ARE ALL THERE. AH. I CAN'T SPEAK TO THE YOU KNOW THE THINKING OF THE PAST. SUPERINTENDENTS THE PAST FISCAL FOLKS, BUT I CAN TELL YOU

[01:15:05]

IT'S WHAT WE HAVE A LOT MORE DISCRETION OVER. UM AND SO THAT'S THAT'S WHAT WE HAVE BEEN FOCUSED ON IN THE PAST. UM BUT WE ALSO MAINTAIN A LOT OF OTHER FUNDS FOR SPECIFIC PROGRAMS AND USES AND FOR REPORTING PURPOSES. I'M GOING TO JUST GO THROUGH THESE QUICKLY. I DON'T WANT TO HAVE 45 MINUTES WORTH OF FUNDS TO TALK EVERYBODY THROUGH, BUT, UM SO I'M GOING TO REFER TO FUNDS WITH NUMBERS. GENERAL FUND IS A ONE SO BUT WE DON'T SAY THAT. SO I'M GOING TO SAY WHEN I SAY FUND EIGHT, YOU KNOW? THAT'S A S. B BUT FIND ONE IS GENERAL FUND. SO FUND AID IS FOR A SP.

WE USE THIS TO REPORT THE SUMMARY LEVEL TRANSACTIONS FOR OUR ASSOCIATED STUDENT BODY PROGRAMS SO WE DON'T MAINTAIN THE FUNDS HERE AT THE DISTRICT OFFICE. THERE'S STILL MAINTAINED AT THE SITES. THEY'RE MAINTAINED IN SB ACCOUNTS, BUT WE'RE REQUIRED BY LAW TO REPORT THEM IN FUNDING SO THAT WE'RE REPORTING ALL THE REVENUES ALL THE EXPENDITURES. IN FUNDING. SO THAT'S WHAT THAT IS FOR. 12 IS OUR CHILD DEVELOPMENT FUND. AND SO THIS ANY OTHER MONEY WE RECEIVED FROM FEDERAL STATE LOCAL SOURCES FOR A CHILD DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS NEEDS TO BE REPORTED THROUGH FUND 12. UM IN OUR DISTRICT. WE HAVE A VERY ROBUST CHILDCARE AND PRESCHOOL PROGRAM. THE FUNDS WERE USED TO SUPPORT STAFFING AND FACILITY NEEDS WITH THAT PROGRAM. AND, UM AND DR LOPEZ IS DOING A GREAT JOB ON THAT SIDE. CAN I MAKE A COMMENT ABOUT CHILD DEVELOPMENT ? SO THERE'S BEEN, UM I'VE HEARD A NUMBER OF TIMES THAT ARE ARE PRESCHOOLS AND CHILDCARE ARE DON'T FUND THEMSELVES, BUT THIS CLEARLY LOOKS LIKE THAT THEY ARE SELF SUSTAINING, AND IT'S ACTUALLY AN INCOME. WE ACTUALLY HAVE AN INCOME WITH OUR, UM PRESCHOOLS, EXPANDING OUR PRESCHOOLS AND CHILDCARE AND ALL THAT IS A HUGE BENEFIT. IT DOESN'T IMPACT US NEGATIVELY IN THE FINANCIAL AREA. IT'S A HUGE BENEFIT. YES. WE WERE TOLD THAT. WOW, OKAY. GOOD ALL GOOD NEWS.

YEAH, I ACTUALLY JUST RAN THROUGH THE BUDGET FOR, UM, PRESCHOOL WE COLLECTED MORE LAST YEAR IN REVENUES THAN WE SPENT TO OPERATE OUR PRESCHOOLS. AND SO THAT'S THE EXPECTATION OF MOVING FORWARD. RIGHT? THANK YOU. 13 IS OUR CAFETERIA FUND, OR IT'S WHAT'S REFERRED TO AS A FOOD SERVICE PROGRAM. ARE AMAZING NUTRITION SERVICES TEAM LED BY SUZANNE MORALES SERVED A RECORD 3.1 MILLION MEALS LAST YEAR. YOU'RE WONDERING HUGE FEET, BUT YOU CAN TELL BY THE FISCAL PRUDENCE OF OUR TEAM BY THAT ENDING FUND BALANCE THERE. AND SO SIMILAR TO CHILDCARE.

THERE'S ALSO PRODUCES A REVENUE STREAM OR OR PROFIT, UM AND BUT THAT CAN ONLY BE USED FOR NUTRITION SERVICES, AND WE'RE WORKING WITH OUR TEAM TO CREATE A PLAN TO SPEND DOWN THAT THOSE BALANCES IN ORDER TO FUND ADDRESS TO ADDRESS CAPACITY ISSUES AND NEEDS OF THE PROGRAM AT VARIOUS SITES AND LET ME SPEAK TO THAT AS WELL. UM SO WHAT HAPPENED WHEN THE STATES STARTED THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AND THEN THE STATE STARTED FULLY FUNDING MEALS IS A LOT OF KIDS.

TOOK THE MEALS AND SO IT'S BECOME LAST YEAR ALONE. WE SAW, YOU KNOW A SURPLUS OF HOW MUCH 5,000,005 OR $6 MILLION. SO THIS IS A THIS IS WHEN I SAY WE NEED TO STUDY SESSION. WE NEED TO COME BACK TO THE BORDER WITH A PLAN FOR ALEX TO HOW TO ALLOCATE THESE RESOURCES. DO WE HAVE KITCHENS THAT ARE TOO SMALL? DO WE HAVE FACILITIES THAT NEED IMPROVEMENT? DO WE HAVE EQUIPMENT? WE NEED TO PURCHASE. UM THIS IS AH, YOU KNOW QUITE A BIT OF FUNDS, AND SO THERE'S GOT

[01:20:05]

AND NO LUNCHABLES ELIGIBLES. SO ALONG WITH THAT, THANK YOU FOR THAT SEGWAY. UM WE'RE ALSO PLANNING THE TEAM IS STRIVING TO ENSURE THAT AT LEAST 40% OF ALL OF OUR MENUS OR SCRATCH COOKED YOUR L AND THAT WE ARE USING MINIMALLY MINIMALLY PROCESSED ITEMS SO AND MAKE SURE I SAY THAT TOO. MOVING ON FUND 14 DEFERRED MAINTENANCE FUND. THIS IS USED FOR MAJOR REPAIRS AND REPLACEMENTS OF THINGS SUCH AS PLUMBING, AIR CONDITIONING, ELECTRICAL ROOFING AND FLOORING.

UM AS YOU CAN IMAGINE. P Y EL IS A VERY LARGE DISTRICT HAS 37 SITES. THERE IS A CONSTANT STREAM OF DEFERRED MAINTENANCE PROJECTS THAT WE'RE WORKING ON. A NUMBER OF FLOORING AND ROOFING PROJECTS ARE PLANNED FOR THE 23 24 SCHOOL YEAR. AND OUR STELLAR MAINTENANCE AND FACILITIES TEAM LED BY BREAD. RONGJI IS DOING A GREAT JOB WITH THAT. 25 CAPITAL FACILITIES. THIS FIND IS USED.

SO THE REVENUES FOR THIS FUND COME FROM OUR DEVELOPER FEES AND THEY ALSO COME FROM THEY JUST DISSOLUTION AS THE RIGHT WORD OF OUR REDEVELOPMENT AGENCIES ARE DIA'S LOCALLY. THOSE THAT THOSE FUNDS CAN BE USED FOR FACILITIES PURPOSES. WE USE THIS TO SUPPLEMENT DEFERRED MAINTENANCE AND OTHER ADDRESS OTHER SITE NEEDS. EVERY YEAR. OUR MAINTENANCE TEAM GOES, OUR FACILITY TEAM GOES OUT AND MEETS WITH EVERY PRINCIPLE TO FIND OUT WHAT WE NEED TO HAVE DONE IT.

OKAY THIS IS ANOTHER. YOU KNOW, LARGE AMOUNT OF MONEY IN THIS ACCOUNT. WE DO GET REVENUES. UM COMING IN DEVELOPER FEES WHEN PEOPLE DO AH, ADDITIONS ON THEIR HOMES. WHEN DEVELOPMENTS HAPPEN . THERE'S A FEE THAT COMES TO THE SCHOOL DISTRICT. IT GOES TO THE CITY AND THEN PAID AT THE SCHOOL DISTRICT. AND THAT'S A DEVELOPER FEE. SO WE IN IN ONE OF THE LAST COUPLE YEARS WE'VE GOT 2.5 MILLION IN IN DEVELOPER FEES. UM THERE'S ALSO THIS RD A MONEY WE'RE GETTING. UM, SO THESE FUNDS ARE VERY MUCH WHILE THEY MUST BE GO TOWARDS FACILITIES. THEY'RE VERY FLEXIBLE. UM IT'S QUITE FULLY FLEXIBLE AND WHAT WE CAN USE THEM FOR. UM UH, THERE'S SOME LIMITATIONS ON SOME OF THE DEVELOPER FEED PROJECTS. BUT AGAIN, WE'RE GOING TO NEED TO SIT DOWN WITH THE BOARD HAVE A STUDY SESSION. REVIEW THESE FUNDS AND REVIEW OUR PRIORITIES . UM I'VE ALSO WE'VE TALKED. UM UM MR STEIN. I HAVE MET WITH OUR FISTS ARE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF FACILITIES. UM TALKING ABOUT WHAT ARE THE KEY PRIORITIES? WHAT ARE AREAS THAT WERE NEVER TOUCHED IN THE LAST BOND? UM BATHROOMS, LOCKER ROOMS. UM ARE POOLS ARE IN THE NEED OF UPGRADES AS WERE EXPENSIVE PROJECTS. SO THERE'S QUITE A BIT TO DO THAT. WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO COME BACK TO THE BOARD WITH THE FUNDS WE HAVE AND WHAT PRIORITIES WE HAVE. AND GET SOME GET SOME GUIDANCE FROM THE BOARD. UM AS TO HOW TO PROCEED WITH THESE FUNDS. CAN I ASK A FOLLOW UP QUESTION AND THIS? MAYBE THIS FUND OR IT MIGHT BE ANOTHER ONE WHEN WE YOU MENTIONED THE REDEVELOPMENT AGENCIES. SO WHEN WE DID OUR BOND MEASURE, AND WE GOT ALL OF THE UPGRADES FOR SCHOOLS, AND WE WERE IN THE FINAL STAGES OF FINISHING EVERYTHING THAT'S WHEN THE REDEVELOPMENT AGENCIES DISSIPATED. THEY WERE TAKEN AWAY. AND THE LAST BIT OF FUNDING THAT WE WERE GOING TO BE UTILIZING FOR BUILDING YOUR BELINDA HIGH SCHOOL AND VALID AS AND MELROSE AND DOING ALL THOSE UPGRADES. WE WEREN'T ABLE TO USE IT. IT FELL OUT FROM UNDERNEATH US. SO WE HAD TO GO OUT AND GET A CAB TO COVER THAT LAST BIT OF FUNDING THAT WE WERE COUNTING ON

[01:25:04]

THE CHALLENGES AHEAD OF THE SAME THAT YOU'VE HEARD MANY TIMES BEFORE. SO WE HAVE DECLINING ENROLLMENT IN OUR SCHOOL DISTRICT ARE ATTENDANCE RATE REMAINS LOW COMPARED TO OUR HISTORICAL HISTORIC TRENDS ARE COSTS FOR STEPPING COLUMN AND PENSIONS AND WELFARE ARE ALL STILL INCREASING. WE'RE STILL EXPERIENCING INFLATIONARY COST, YOU KNOW, INCREASES ON EVERYTHING THAT WE'RE BUYING. IN ADDITION TO OUR SUPPLY CHAIN ISSUES THAT WE'RE RUNNING INTO AND SO, UM, WE'RE FACING THAT, ALONG WITH A LOT OF OUR ONE TIME FUNDS THAT ARE BEING THAT ARE EXPIRING. SO I WOULD BE REMISS IF I DIDN'T THINK MY FISCAL SERVICES TEAM FOR PUTTING TOGETHER THE UNAUDITED ACTUALS AND THE PRESENTATION. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. AND I KNOW THAT WAS A LOT TO COVER, SO I JUST WANT TO SEE IF THERE'S ANY QUESTIONS REMAINING. QUESTIONS QUESTIONS.

I HAVE NO FURTHER QUESTIONS. I INTERRUPTED ENOUGH. TRUSTEE ANDERSON TRUSTEE FRAZIER. I'M JUST GLAD THAT WE'RE LOOKING INTO THIS, UM, LOOKING FORWARD TO SEE WHAT WE CAN GET DONE.

OKAY? ALL RIGHT. NO QUESTIONS. THANK YOU, MA'AM. OKAY, SO, UM IF THERE ARE NO MORE QUESTIONS.

WE HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND ALL THOSE IN FAVOR. BYE. BYE BYE. I. EXCELLENT MOTION PASSES

[01:30:07]

[19. ACTION ITEMS - CURRICULUM AND INSTRUCTION ]

[01:35:01]

WE PROPOSE THAT ROUGHLY $8.8 MILLION OF THE ARTS, MUSIC AND INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS BLOCK GRANT FUNDS BE DEDICATED TO RAPA , WHICH REPRESENTS NEARLY 63% I'M SORRY 64% OF THE FUNDS.

FIRSTLY WE WILL RESTORE OUR VAPID COORDINATOR TO FULL TIME STATUS IN ORDER TO COVER THE ADDITIONAL OVERSIGHT THAT WE ANTICIPATE WILL BE NEEDED FOR THE INCREASE IN THE VISUAL AND PERFORMING ARTS PROGRAMS, EVENTS AND STAFF. IN PARTICULAR WITH THE ADDITIONAL ARTS AND MUSIC PROP 28 FUNDS THAT WILL BE ARRIVING BASED OFF OF YOUR SUGGESTION, WE WILL BE PROVIDING THE MEAT THAT MASTER'S PROGRAM FOR ALL ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS, SO THAT IS NOT DEPENDENT ON TO FUNDS. WE WILL ALLOCATE FUNDING TO PURCHASE NEW INSTRUMENTS AS WELL AS TO MAINTAIN AND REPAIR EXISTING EQUIPMENT AT OUR SCHOOLS. WE WILL BE REPLACING OUR MIDDLE AND HIGH SCHOOL BAND UNIFORMS OVER THE NEXT THREE YEARS. WILL BE REPLACING OUR HIGH SCHOOL KILNS. WE WILL CONTINUE TO INVEST IN ESPERANZA HIGH SCHOOL THEATER BY COMPLETING LIGHTING AND SOUND UPGRADES. AND WE WILL REPLACE IT AND PURCHASE TRAILERS FOR OUR BAND PROGRAMS, WHILE ALSO PROVIDING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT FOR OUR STAFF. AND COACHING AND SUPPORT HOURS, AS WELL AS JUST MORE DISCRETIONARY, MISCELLANEOUS SUPPLIES AND SERVICES. TO SUPPORT OUR VISUAL AND PERFORMING ARTS. OUR SECOND FOCUS AREA IS EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION WILL BE ALLOCATED NEARLY 12% OF THE FUNDS TO OFFSET THE RELATED COSTS INVOLVED IN THE EXPANSION OF OUR PRESCHOOL AND TK PROGRAMS IN ACCORDANCE WITH STATE YOU PEAK LEGISLATION. RESULTING IN THE ADDITION OF EXTRA CLASSROOMS AT MANY OF OUR ELEMENTARY SITES. WE'RE ALLOCATING FUNDS TO COVER INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS AND EQUIPMENT TO MEET THE GROWING NEEDS OF OUR EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION PROGRAM. CLASSROOMS STUDENTS AND TEACHERS. OUR THIRD FOCUS AREA WILL BE INCREASING ACCESS TO ACTIVITIES AND ATHLETICS WHERE WE WILL ALLOCATE ROUGHLY 25% 24% OF THE FUNDS.

FIRST WE WILL ENSURE THAT EVERY ELEMENTARY SCHOOL STUDENT HAS THE OPPORTUNITY TO PARTICIPATE IN A CULMINATING OVERNIGHT EXPERIENCE, REGARDLESS OF THE REGARDLESS OF THEIR FINANCIAL STATUS, OR IF THEIR SCHOOL OFFERS 1/6 GRADE OR NOT. WE WILL ALSO PROVIDE ONE ADDITIONAL HIGH SCHOOL COACHING STIPEND PER PROGRAM AND FUNDING FOR ADDITIONAL ATHLETIC EQUIPMENT TO OFFSET THE CONTRIBUTION OF OUR ATHLETIC PROGRAMS, PARENTS AND BOOSTERS. WHAT WILL YOU REPEAT THAT 11 MORE TIME, PLEASE. WE'RE GOING TO BE PROVIDING ONE ADDITIONAL HIGH SCHOOL COACHING STIPEND PER ATHLETIC PROGRAM AS WELL AS DISCRETIONARY FUNDING TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL ATHLETIC EQUIPMENT TO OFFSET THE CONTRIBUTION OF OUR PROGRAMS, PARENTS AND BOOSTERS. AND ABOUT THAT ONE SURE. SO IS THAT ONE COACHING STIPEND HURT SPORT? UM EVEN FOR SPORTS THAT HAVE LIKE SEVEN COACHES VERSUS TWO COACHES VERSUS. FIVE COACHES, OR IS IT GOING TO BE BROKEN UP? UM MORE BASED ON HOW MANY PARTICIPANTS THERE ARE IN THE SPORT, SO WE'RE STILL WORKING ON THE BEST WAY TO

[01:40:03]

THEY'RE BRINGING JIU JITSU BACKGROUNDS WITH THEM, TOO. I HAVE A COUSIN WHO'S I THINK EIGHT OR 10, AND SHE'S AT THESE TOURNAMENTS, WRESTLING TOURNAMENTS AND JUJITSU TOURNAMENT. EVERY LIKE WEEKEND AND SHE IS A STUD SO AND YOU CAN SEE THESE TOURNAMENTS. I MEAN, THEY'RE JUST PACKED WITH PEOPLE. SO I THINK THAT THE WRESTLING PROGRAM IS AN AMAZING PROGRAM TO ADD THE MIDDLE SCHOOL. WHY WOULD WE CHOOSE WRESTLING VERSUS SOCCER, FOR EXAMPLE? SO THE GOOD THING ABOUT WRESTLING IS, UM YOU DON'T NEED ANY EQUIPMENT. AH, YOU JUST SHOW UP. AND SO IT'S GREAT FOR ALL KIDS, UM AS MANY GIRLS AS BOYS, AS, UM, MISS BLADES MENTIONED ARE DOING IT.

THE OUTDOOR SPORTS ARE SOMETIMES HARDER TO PROGRAM BECAUSE WE HAVE. THE SOCCER FIELDS ARE BEING USED ALREADY BY OTHER ORGANIZATIONS. SO THERE'S A FEW DIFFERENT REASONS, BUT WE HAVE TALKED ABOUT SOCCER. IT IS A POSSIBILITY OF LOOKING TO BRING THAT AS WELL AS WE GET INTO FURTHER AND THAT CONTENT CALENDAR. WE HAVE ALL OF THOSE THINGS COMING UP. I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT IT'S SUSTAINABLE AND THAT WE CONTINUE TO BUILD THAT IN FOR FOREVER. UM AND TRAINING OUR PEOPLE AND GETTING THAT PROCESS IN PLACE WOULD BE GREAT. YEAH, WE ALSO HIRED A MIDDLE SCHOOL SPORTS COORDINATOR, WHICH IS SARAH BARTON. SO SHE WE PAID HER A FEW EXTRA DAYS TO COORDINATE ALL OF THIS BECAUSE WE REALLY WANT AN ORGANIZED REAL MIDDLE SCHOOL SPORTS PROGRAM AND SHE'S GREAT AND SHE'S YOU KNOW, FORMER PE TEACHER AND SHE'S ALREADY HIT THE GROUND RUNNING.

OKAY? YEAH, THANK YOU. I AM DISAPPOINTED. HOWEVER I DIDN'T HEAR PICKLEBALL IN THAT. SO I'M HOPING THE NEXT TIME THAT THIS COMES AROUND PICKLEBALL WILL BE ADDED. DEFINITELY TAKE THAT INTO CONSIDERATION. OKAY? SO AS A REMINDER THE EXAMPLES PROVIDED IN THIS PLAN THIS EVENING ARE CERTAINLY NOT EXHAUSTIVE, AND THEY DO TEND TO BE MORE GENERIC IN NATURE TO ALLOW US THE FLEXIBILITY TO CONTINUE TO ADAPT OVER THE THREE YEARS TO ADJUST TO THE NEEDS OF OUR COMMUNITY.

AND SO IT'S MY PLEASURE THIS EVENING TO ASK FOR YOUR APPROVAL TO ADOPT THIS PLAN ALLOWING US TO EXTEND THESE EXCITING AND ENRICHING LEARNING EXPERIENCES TO OUR STUDENTS. I WELCOME ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS OR FEEDBACK THAT YOU HAVE AT THIS TIME. MY ONLY MY ONLY COMMENT IS I AM SO HAPPY THAT WE HELD THIS BECAUSE THERE WAS NO REAL COMPREHENSIVE PLAN THE LAST TIME THAT THIS HAS BROUGHT FORWARD AND SO I THINK THIS WAS A GREAT DECISION BY OUR BOARD TO HOLD THIS UNTIL THE ARRIVAL. BITTERNESS AND I'M JUST THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK, AND WE REALLY APPRECIATE IT. THIS SEEMS VERY COMPREHENSIVE AND HITS A LOT OF PLACES. UM AND SO I'M IMPRESSED WITH THIS. I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE NOT DOING TOO HEAVY INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS AND MAKE

AND I THINK THAT, UM INCREASING THE JUNIOR HIGH SPORTS AND GETTING THE ART STUFF . I MEAN, I NOTICED MEET THE MASTERS IS IN THERE LIKE THERE'S SO MANY THINGS FROM A ART SIDE AND WE'RE ELEMENTARY MUSIC, BUT I AGREE WITH, I THINK WHAT TRUSTEE, ANDERSON SAID, SAYING.

I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE CAN DO THIS LONG TERM. IT'S NOT JUST A THREE YEAR PLAN, SO BUILDING THIS INTO FUTURE BUDGETS AND MAKING SURE WE CONTINUE TO SUPPORT. ALL OF THESE GREAT PROGRAMS FOR STUDENTS IS REALLY IMPORTANT TO ME, AND I'M EXCITED ABOUT IT. ALL RIGHT. ME TOO. I'M VERY EXCITED ABOUT THAT. ALRIGHT SO IF THERE'S NO MORE QUESTIONS , UM LET'S GO AHEAD AND TAKE OUR VOTE. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR, AYE. I EXCELLENT. I ALRIGHT? WE HAVE MOTION CARRIES.

[01:55:02]

REPRESENT THIS ONE AREA. I REMEMBER TRUSTY BUCK SAYING, WELL, I HATE WHEN PEOPLE SAY THAT THEY REPRESENT BECAUSE WE REPRESENT ALL AND SO I DO THINK THAT THAT'S A WEAK ARGUMENT, AND I THINK I CAN BRING A LOT TO THE TABLE. THERE'S YORBA LINDA CITY COUNCIL ON HERE, SO IT'S NOT JUST, UM IT'S NOT JUST, YOU KNOW , A CERTAIN AREAS REPRESENTATIVE WHOLE COMMUNITY AND I FEEL LIKE I CAN REPRESENT THIS AREA, THE COMMUNITY JUST AS WELL AS A REPRESENTATIVE ARTISTIC DISTRICT. ALSO I WANT TO GO AHEAD. GO AHEAD, MARILYN. WE ALL RECEIVED THIS LETTER. AND WHEN I RECEIVED THIS LETTER, I CONTACTED DR ERNEST AND I SAID THAT I WAS INTERESTED IN THIS POSITION. UM AND HE SAID THAT THIS IS WHAT IS IT THAT YOU HAD ALREADY APPOINTED MRS BLADE, AND HE SAID TO REACH OUT TO YOU, BUT THAT'S AGAINST THE BROWN AS I CAN'T GO TO YOU. DIRECTLY. TO TALK ABOUT SOMETHING THAT YOU'VE ALREADY TALKED TO ANOTHER BOARD MEMBER ABOUT AND THAT'S WHY I FEEL LIKE IT'S SO IMPORTANT THAT WE DO BEING AT BOARD MEETINGS. WE COME TOGETHER AS A COMMITTEE . WE HAVE HAD A LOT OF TALK ABOUT HOW WE'RE A TEAM THAT NONE OF US HAVE OVERARCHING. UM VOTING PRIVILEGES. WE ARE ALL EQUAL IN OUR VOTES. AND SO THAT'S WHEN THINGS LIKE THIS COME. THEY NEED TO COME BACK TO THE BOARD SO THAT WE CAN HAVE OPEN DISCUSSIONS. AND TALK ABOUT IT BECAUSE WE CAN'T ALL GO TALK TO THE PRESIDENT ABOUT IT THAT WOULD, WE WOULD ALL BE BREAKING BROWN ACT FILE ISSUES. I YES, I WOULD RECOMMEND THAT IF WE'RE GOING TO BE APPOINTING SOMEBODY FOR A POSITION LATER ON, UM, EVER THAT IT'S NOT PUT IN THE CONSENT CALENDAR THAT IT'S ACTUALLY PUT ON AND A SEPARATE ITEM SO THAT WE COULD HAVE A BLANK SPACE, AND WE COULD UM, FILL IN THAT NAME, IS IT BECAUSE IT COMES SO THAT WE'RE ALL MAKING THAT DECISION TOGETHER? TOTALLY AGREE. NOW KEEP IN MIND THAT THE LETTER THAT DID COME TO ME WAS ADDRESSED TO ME, AND IT WAS MY AUTHORITY TO GO AHEAD AND APPOINT SOMEBODY AND THE ONLY REASON IN WHICH I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE GOOD IS, UH IF WE BROUGHT IT UP INTO INTO OUR COMMITTEE IT IS. I WONDER EVERYBODY'S INPUT ON IT. BUT I'D ALREADY MADE MY DECISION SO IT IS ADDRESSED TO YOU. IT WAS SENT TO ALL OF US. BUT WE HAVE NOTHING IN OUR BYLAWS THAT GIVES YOU AUTHORITY TO MAKE THOSE DECISIONS. I THINK IF WE'RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT, UM, THIS WHOLE VOTING THING AND THE BOREDOM OR A TEAM THEN, UM, THERE WAS A P R. A. THAT WAS DONE DURING OUR SEARCH FIRM. AND IT SHOWS THAT YOU AND MARYLAND WENT BEHIND THE BOARD MAJORITIES BACK AFTER THINGS WERE ALREADY VOTED AND TRIED TO REMOVE MY KAILALI. AS OUR SEARCH PERSON AND AS THE MARYLAND ANDERSON AND SHE ALSO WAS REQUESTING FUNDS TO BE RETURNED, AND WE NOTICE THE REST OF THE BOARD. AND SO I THINK WHEN WE HAVE A COMMITTEE LIKE THIS TO GO OUT, UM I DON'T THINK THAT I'VE EVER GONE BEHIND THE BOARDS BACK AND TRY TO DO ANYTHING. UM. YOU KNOW, TO GET A CONSULTANT FIRED OR TO GET A SILK CONSULTANT REMOVED OR TO DO DIFFERENT THINGS WITH FUNDING. AND SO THAT'S WHY I THINK THAT I WOULD BE BEST AT THIS IS BECAUSE I WILL TAKE WHATEVER THE BOARD ONCE AND I WILL TAKE WHAT THE COMMITTEE SAYS, AND I WILL DO. I'LL BRING IT BACK TO THE BOARD AND I WON'T DO ANYTHING. UM YOU KNOW, BEHIND THE BOARDS BACK AND I, YOU KNOW, I CAN, UH, I CAN TELL THE PRESIDENT EXACTLY

[02:00:04]

DON'T WE NEED TO NOMINATE? YES OKAY, SO WE NEED TO GO BACK TO THE ORIGINAL ITEM. AND WHICH IS 22.1, AND, UH, WE NEED TO TAKE A VOTE ON HOW IT IS WRITTEN, NOMINATED VICE PRESIDENT BLADES FOR THE BRIDGES AT KRAMER POLICE COMMUNITY ADVISORY BOARD PER RECOMMENDATION FROM PRESIDENT SEAN YOUNG BLOOD. ALL RIGHT. EX PLAIDS. MADE THE MOTION. I NEED A SECOND. SECOND MR FRASER. THE SECOND. OKAY ALL THOSE IN FAVOR . NO LET ME DO A ROLL CALL. UM, MISS BUCK. MISS ANDERSON. NO.

OKAY? MR FRASER. YES OKAY. MS BLADES? YES. AND MYSELF. I AND I DON'T THINK WE NEED OUR STUDENT BOARD MEMBER TO VOTE ON IT. I ABSTAINED. GOOD GOOD JOB. OKAY SO THE MOTION PASSES THREE TO

[25.1 Approve the MOU between PYLUSD and the city of Anaheim for the provision of one School Resource Officer for the 2023-24 school year.]

TELL US ABOUT THIS. I AM SO HAPPY THAT WE ARE FINALLY, AT THIS POINT. IT HAS BEEN YEARS THAT I'VE BEEN ON RICHARD MCCLENDON'S CASE ABOUT GETTING OVER THERE AND COMMUNICATING WITH THEM AND CONVINCING THEM TO COME BACK. UM ESPERANZA WAS OUR ONLY SCHOOL THAT DIDN'T HAVE A SCHOOL RESOURCE OFFICER. AND THAT WAS ONE OF THE SCHOOLS THAT WE SEEM TO HAVE THE MOST ISSUES WITH. UM SO IT SEEMS APPROPRIATE THAT WE'RE FINALLY BACK TO THIS POINT, SO I JUST WANTED TO

[02:05:02]

COORDINATE THE S R. O S AT ALL THE SCHOOLS TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY'RE NOT ALL OFF ON THE SAME DAY JUST IN THE CITY OF PLACENTA BECAUSE WE HAVE TO COVERING TWO HIGH SCHOOLS.
