[11. PRESENTATIONS ]

NEXT WE'RE GOING TO MOVE INTO OUR PRESENTATIONS. AND AS OF THIS TIME, MRS RENE GRAY IS GOING TO INTRODUCE THIS ITEM. OKAY THIS EVENING, I WILL BE PRESENTING ON OUR TWO PROGRAMS THAT WE'VE CREATED FOR OUR ADULT TRANSITION STUDENTS CALLED THE PLUS PROGRAM STANDING FOR PLACENTIA. LINDA SUCCESS AS WELL AS OUR ADVANCED PROGRAM.

OKAY GOOD EVENING, PRESIDENT BLADES BOARD OF TRUSTEE SUPERINTENDENT SURENESS EXECUTIVE CABINET. I HAVE THE PLEASURE TO PRESENT THIS EVENING PROGRAMS IN OUR DISTRICT THAT

[00:10:05]

UNIQUELY MEET OUR STUDENTS NEEDS AND PROMOTE POSITIVE POST SECONDARY EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES FOR STUDENTS WITH I P S IN TONIGHT'S PRESENTATION. I WILL SHARE INFORMATION ABOUT OUR ADULT TRANSITION PROGRAM AND THE EXPANDED PROGRAMS ENTITLED ADVANCING PLUS WHICH WE HAVE BUILT TO SERVE OUR ADULT LEARNERS. I WILL BE PRESENTING THE PATHWAY TO SUCCESS THROUGH THE PROGRAMS WE HAVE INSTITUTED TO INCREASE LITERACY FOR SOME OF OUR STUDENTS AND THE ENCOURAGING DATA WE HAVE COLLECTED. LASTLY OUR INAUGURAL STUDENTS FROM OUR PLUS PROGRAM IS HERE TO PRESENT HER EXPERIENCES THUS FAR IN HER NEW EMPLOYMENT WITH OUR DISTRICT. THIS QUOTE ENCAPSULATES THE ESSENCE OF TONIGHT'S PRESENTATION AND EMBODIES THE SHARED BELIEF WITHIN SPECIAL EDUCATION REGARDING THE STUDENTS UNDER OUR CARE. ALL STUDENTS CAN LEARN AND SUCCEED, BUT NOT ON THE SAME DAY AND IN THE SAME WAY. IN SPECIAL EDUCATION. WE ARE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE TRANSITION SERVICES FOR THOSE STUDENTS ON IPS WHO ARE UNABLE TO EARN A REGULAR HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA AND THAT IS DEFINED BY EDUCATION CODE 560 TO 6.1. THESE STUDENTS ARE ENTITLED TO ATTEND AN ADULT TRANSITION PROGRAM AND CONTINUE RECEIVING SPECIAL EDUCATION AND RELATED SERVICES UNTIL THE AGE OF 22. CALIFORNIA ALONG WITH OTHER STATES IN OUR NATION REALIZED THE IMPACT THAT NOT RECEIVING A DIPLOMA HAS HAD ON SOME OF OUR STUDENTS WITH I P S. AS A RESULT , RECENT LEGISLATION IN THE FORM OF ASSEMBLY BILL 181. THE ALTERNATIVE DIPLOMA PATHWAY HAS PROVIDED MORE OPPORTUNITY FOR STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES TO EARN DIPLOMAS THROUGH ALTERNATIVE MEANS. IN P Y EL USD ARE ADULT TRANSITION PROGRAM IS ENTITLED VENTURE ACADEMY.

VENTURE ACADEMY IS A POST SECONDARY PROGRAM THAT HELPS YOUNG ADULTS AGES 18 TO 22 TRANSITION SUCCESSFULLY FROM SCHOOL TO ADULT LIFE. VENTURE PROVIDES INSTRUCTIONAL AND WORK RELATED ACTIVITIES THAT ENABLE STUDENTS TO LEARN THE ESSENTIAL WORK PERSONAL AND SOCIAL BEHAVIORS NECESSARY FOR EMPLOYMENT AND INDEPENDENCE. STUDENTS GAINED THE CONFIDENCE TO MAKE THEIR OWN DECISIONS, TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR ACTIONS AND GAIN KNOWLEDGE OF THEIR RIGHTS AS INDIVIDUALS. THE FOCUS ADVENTURE ACADEMY IS TO SUPPORT STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES AS THEY PROGRESS THROUGH THE FOLLOWING SKILLS. LITERACY WORK, EXPERIENCE, RECREATIONAL AND SOCIAL ACTIVITIES, INDEPENDENT LIVING SKILLS AND CONNECTING WITH COMMUNITY RESOURCES. THIS SCHOOL YEAR IN P Y EL USD WE ARE CLOSELY EXAMINING WHAT WE HAVE COINED THE SCHOOL TO WORK PIPELINE. THE PIPELINE, IF YOU WILL IS BEING INTENTIONALLY BUILT TO ENSURE ALL OF OUR EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS FOR OUR STUDENTS WITH TYPES PROVIDE THE LITERACY AND SKILL DEVELOPMENT THAT WILL EVENTUALLY ENHANCE OUR ADULT STUDENTS AND THE PROGRAMS AND EQUIP THEM WITH VITAL SKILLS FOR EMPLOYMENT. POST GRADUATION. OUR FOCUS IS ON DELVING INTO LITERACY AND TARGETED SKILL BUILDING, ESPECIALLY FOR STUDENTS IN COUNTERING LITERACY CHALLENGES. THIS APPROACH SIGNIFICANTLY AMPLIFIES THEIR COMMUNICATION PROWESS, PAVING THE WAY FOR GREATER SUCCESS AND A SMOOTHER TRANSITION INTO POST SECONDARY WORK AND COMMUNITY LIFE. TWO NEWLY DEVELOPED PROGRAMS AS I MENTIONED BEFORE ADVANCING PLUS HAVE BEEN CRAFTED TO BOLSTER THIS SCHOOL TO WORK PIPELINE PROVIDING CRUCIAL SUPPORT FOR OUR STUDENTS. PRIOR TO DELVING INTO THE DETAILS OF OUR TWO NEW PROGRAMS. I DO WANT TO DISCUSS THE FOUNDATIONAL ASPECTS OF LITERACY THAT OUR SPECIAL EDUCATION TEAM FOCUSES ON. THIS EMPHASIS IS AIMED AT ENHANCING THE PROSPECTS OF SUCCESS FOR STUDENTS WHO WILL EVENTUALLY JOIN THE WORKFORCE LITERACY TRADITIONALLY CONFINED TO READING AND WRITING SKILLS NOW SPANS A BROADER SPECTRUM.

ENCOMPASSING LANGUAGE, NUMERACY VISUAL REPRESENTATION, INTERPRETATION AND ACTUALLY UNDERSTANDING CULTURAL SYMBOLS SOME OF OUR STUDENTS WHILE ENCOUNTERING CHALLENGES IN CONVENTIONAL LITERACY METHODS, DEMONSTRATE LITERACY BY RECOGNIZING SYMBOLS LIKE THE STOP SIGN THE SHAPE AND THE COLOR, UNDERSTANDING ITS CULTURAL SIGNIFICANCE. TO PROMPT THEM TO STOP. THIS, TOO, IS CONSIDERED LITERACY. COMMUNICATIONS BEDROCK LIES AND RECEIVING AND EXPRESSING INFORMATION, ENCAPSULATING IN LISTENING AND SPEAKING. SO WHILE READING AND WRITING ARE PIVOTAL FOR FUTURE SUCCESS, THEIR ACQUISITION DOES NOT HAVE TO ADHERE STRICTLY TO TRADITIONAL ROUTES. FOR STUDENTS WHO ABSORB INFORMATION DIFFERENTLY AND EXPRESS THEMSELVES THROUGH ALTERNATIVE MEANS, SUCH AS VISUAL COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS. WE'VE IMPLEMENTED INTERVENTION AND SUPPORT PROGRAMS LIKE RE TOPIA. READ TOPIA IS THE LITERACY PROGRAM WE ARE UTILIZING FOR OUR STUDENTS WITH MORE COMPLEX NEEDS. THIS PROGRAM IS COMPREHENSIVE EVIDENCE BASED AND, MOST IMPORTANTLY, AGE, RESPECTFUL. OUR TEACHERS COUPLE RE TOPIA WITH THE 36 CORE WORDS MOST COMMONLY USED IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE, AND THEY

[00:15:02]

ASSIST STUDENTS IN LITERACY AND COMMUNICATION DEVELOPMENT. UTOPIA ALLOWS READERS TO PROGRESS FROM EMERGENT TO CONVENTIONAL SKILLS. CLASSICS SUCH AS JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF THE EARTH, AND OF GREEN GABLES, OR CONTEMPORARY WORKS, SUCH AS THE LIFE AND WORK OF JANE GOODALL ARE TYPICAL TEXTS, WHICH ALLOW FOR AGED, APPROPRIATE ACCESS TO GREAT LITERATURE FOR OUR STUDENTS. THE USE OF CORE WORDS ALLOWS ALL STUDENTS TO HAVE A VOICE IN PARTICIPATING IN CLASS DISCUSSIONS. THE SUCCESS OF THE PROGRAM IS HIGHLIGHTED BY THE EXPERTISE OF OUR SPEECH AND LANGUAGE PATHOLOGIST PUSH INTO LITERACY CLASSES, SUPPORTING OUR TEACHERS WITH VOCABULARY, DEVELOPMENT AND COMPREHENSION. THESE GRAPHICS REPRESENT OUR STUDENT PROGRESS THROUGH THE USE OF RE TOPIA LITERACY PROGRAM. THE FIRST GRAPHIC ON THE LEFT WHILE SMALL, I WILL DESCRIBE IT LEFT REPRESENTS ONE OF OUR PRE SYMBOLIC READERS WHO HAS YET TO MASTER SYMBOLIC REPRESENTATION OF LANGUAGE BUT HAS DEMONSTRATED GROWTH IN SEVERAL COMMUNICATION CLUSTER AREAS, AS MEASURED BY THE COMMUNICATION MATRIX. THIS IS A COMPLEX SET OF DATA, HOWEVER. WHAT IS EVIDENT IS THESE TWO TABLES. IS IT? THE COLORED BOXES YELLOW, REPRESENTING EMERGING ORANGE, MASTERED AND GRACE SURPASSED DEPICTS. THIS STUDENT HAS INCREASED IN CLUSTERS SUCH AS MAKING REQUESTS, MAKING CHOICES AND NAMING ITEMS AMONGST OTHER IMPORTANT COMMUNICATION SKILLS.

AS YOU CAN SEE, FROM MARCH 2022 MARCH 2023, THIS STUDENT WITH EXTENSIVE NEEDS MADE SIGNIFICANT GROWTH. IN TOTAL, THE STUDENT GAINED THE USE OF AN ADDITIONAL 11 CLUSTERS OF SYMBOLS. THIS IS JUST ONE SAMPLE OF THE POSITIVE IMPACT WE'RE SEEING THROUGH THE USE OF RE TOPIA AND CORE WORDS INSTRUCTIONAL PROGRAM. THE TRANSITIONAL CONVENTIONAL READERS DEPICTED ON THE GRAPH TO THE RIGHT SIGNIFY STUDENTS WHO ARE NEARLY FLUENT AND HAVE BEGUN TO ADOPT READING BEHAVIORS.

THESE STUDENTS HAVE MADE POSITIVE GAINS BETWEEN SEPTEMBER AND DECEMBER OF JUST THIS SCHOOL YEAR, AS YOU CAN SEE FROM JUST FOUR MONTHS OF PARTICIPATION IN THIS PROGRAM, EIGHT OUT OF 10 STUDENTS HAVE SHOWN GROWTH IN THEIR ORAL READING FLUENCY. AS MEASURED BY WORDS PER MINUTE.

ONE HAS REMAINED THE SAME, AND ONE STUDENT DUE TO ATTENDANCE HAS SLIGHTLY DROPPED. SO THROUGH OUR EXPANDED FOCUS ON LITERACY, WE REALIZED THE POTENTIAL IMPACT IT CAN HAVE ON POST SECONDARY OUTCOMES. AND THIS IS FOR ALL OF OUR STUDENTS WITH SPECIAL NEEDS. AS A RESULT, OUR DISTRICT HAS ARE TWO PROGRAMS, THE FIRST OF WHICH IS ADVANCED THAT I WILL BE DESCRIBING TO YOU. ADVANCE AIMS TO HELP OUR STUDENTS ADVANCE IF YOU WILL TO THEIR EDUCATE ADVANCED EDUCATION AND PREPARE THEM FOR THE WORKFORCE ADVANCE PROVIDES A BRIDGE FOR SPECIAL EDUCATION STUDENTS CURRENTLY PLACED ADVENTURE ACADEMY WHO HAVE NEARLY MET GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS AND THEREFORE DO NOT REQUIRE THE FULL FOUR YEAR PROGRAM. THAT VENTURE OFFERS. THESE STUDENTS OFTEN NEED EXTRA SUPPORT IN OBTAINING A REGULAR HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA. EL CAMINO REAL HIGH SCHOOL WORKS IN COLLABORATION WITH VENTURE ACADEMY TO PROVIDE THE ACADEMIC CREDITS, INSTRUCTIONAL SUPPORT AND CAREER EXPLORATION. STUDENTS LEAVE ADVANCED WITH A REGULAR HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA AS WELL AS SPECIFIC SKILLS, QUALIFYING THEM FOR POST SECONDARY COLLEGE AND CAREER. OUR SECOND PROGRAM OF FOCUS IS THE PLUS PROGRAM. PLACENTIA LINDA UPWARDS SUCCESS PLUS SIGNIFIES OUR SCHOOL TO WORK PIPELINE P Y EL USD IS NOW PROVIDING OPPORTUNITIES FOR OUR STUDENTS TO INTERN AND OR RETURN TO OUR DISTRICT AS EMPLOYEES THROUGH OUR DISTRICT SCHOOL TO WORK PROGRAM. THE FOCUS OF PLUS IS TO PROVIDE WORK BASED LEARNING INTERNSHIPS WITH US. TO VENTURE AN ADVANCED STUDENTS WITH FACILITATED ON SITE TRAINING AND EXPERIENCE IN VARIOUS PY L USD DEPARTMENTS SUCH AS PRINT SHOP, NUTRITION, SERVICES, MAINTENANCE AND SPECIAL EDUCATION, AND WE ARE EXPANDING BY PARTNERING WITH GOODWILL INDUSTRIES AND THEIR JOB COACHES TO ASSIST US THROUGH THE CAREER NAVIGATOR PROGRAM TO ENHANCE OUR JOB SUITABILITY STUDIES FOR OUR STUDENTS. OUR ADULT TRANSITION PROGRAM PROVIDES LINKAGES AS WELL WITH COMMUNITY RESOURCES, SUCH AS NORTH ORANGE COUNTY REGIONAL OCCUPATIONAL PROGRAM AND DEPARTMENT OF REHABILITATION.

HISTORICALLY THROUGH OUR ADULT TRANSITION PROGRAM, WE HAVE WORKED DILIGENTLY TO INCREASE THE JOB AND CAREER OPPORTUNITIES OUTSIDE OF P Y EL USD BY MATCHING STUDENT INTERESTS AND SKILLS TO JOBS. AND NOW, THROUGH OUR TWO NEW PROGRAMS, WE ARE MOVING TOWARDS BECOMING A MORE INTEGRATED EMPLOYMENT ORGANIZATION. IT HAS BEEN WONDERFUL TO SEE THE COLLABORATION BETWEEN EL CAMINO REAL HIGH SCHOOL ADVENTURE ACADEMY AS THEY IDENTIFY STUDENTS WHO, WITH SOME ADDITIONAL LITTLE BIT ACADEMIC, MORE ACADEMIC SUPPORT, ARE ABLE TO LEAVE VENTURE EARLY AND THEN RECEIVE A REGULAR HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA. ADVANCED ALSO FOCUSES ON RESUME BUILDING INTERVIEW SKILLS AND JUST PROVIDING MORE OPPORTUNITY FOR ATTAINING EMPLOYMENT THROUGH THESE INTERNSHIPS. WE ARE REALLY INCREASING THE POTENTIAL OF OUR STUDENTS OBTAIN OBTAINING PERMANENT EMPLOYMENT WITHIN OUR VERY OWN DISTRICT. THE ULTIMATE GOAL IS TO ENHANCE OUR ADULT STUDENT OPPORTUNITIES TO ENSURE THAT OUR STUDENTS UPON LEAVING P Y EL USD MAINTAIN A ROBUST SUPPORT NETWORK CONTRIBUTING TO THEIR FUTURE SUCCESS. SO WE HAVE

[00:20:07]

A VIDEO HERE, WHICH EPITOMIZES IT JUST TAKING ONE PERSON AND I THINK WE'VE ALL BEEN TALKING ABOUT THESE TWO PROGRAMS COMING THROUGH FRUITION AND HOW WE CAN MAKE THIS WORK. AND SO THIS VIDEO WILL SHOW THE OPPORTUNITIES. HOW JUST USING BELIEVING IN ONE PERSON HOW IT CAN HAVE A CONTAGION EFFECT. OKAY SO IT ONLY TAKES ONE PERSON TO START THE CHAIN OF CHANGE.

AT THE HEART OF OUR DISTRICT MASTER PLAN FOR THE ENGLISH LEARNERS LIES THE GUIDING PRINCIPLES OF THE CALIFORNIA ENGLISH LEARNER ROADMAP POLICY, WHICH SERVES AS THE FOUNDATION FOR OUR APPROACH TO CREATING AND IMPLEMENTING PROGRAMS THAT GO BEYOND THE CLASSROOM. THIS ROADMAP PROVIDES CLEAR GUIDANCE TO OUR DEDICATED SCHOOL AND DISTRICT LEADERS.

OFFERING A COMPREHENSIVE REFERENCE TO THE ESSENTIAL SERVICES WE COMMIT. TO PROVIDING OUR ENGLISH LEARNERS. IN FACT, OUR COMMITMENT TO ENGLISH LEARNERS IS DEEPLY EMBEDDED IN THE SYSTEMS WE ESTABLISHED. THE GOALS WE SET. THE RELATIONSHIPS WE CULTIVATE WITH OUR FAMILIES

[00:30:03]

AND THE HARMONIZATION OF OUR PRACTICES ACROSS ALL SCHOOL SITES AND GRADE LEVELS. THESE PAGES SYMBOLIZE OUR UNWAVERING DEDICATION TO COLLABORATE AND LEARNING TOGETHER. AS WE PURSUE OUR ONGOING COMMITMENT TO A RICH , MULTILINGUAL AND MULTICULTURAL STUDENT POPULATION. OUR PLAN IS ORGANIZED TO REFLECT THE FOLLOWING SIX SECTIONS. RANGING FROM IDENTIFICATION OF ENGLISH LEARNERS TO FAMILY ENGAGEMENT. THIS PLAN IS NOT MERELY A SET OF GUIDELINES RATHER IT IS A STRATEGIC VISION THAT WILL SHAPE THE EDUCATIONAL LANDSCAPE, FOSTERING RIGOR AND ACCESS FOR ALL ENGLISH LEARNERS. IN OUR INCREASINGLY INTERCONNECTED WORLD PROFICIENCY IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE IS NOT ONLY AN ACADEMIC NECESSITY BUT A KEY TO UNLOCKING AND BRIDGING OPPORTUNITIES FOR STUDENTS. OF THE GREATEST IMPORTANCE IN OUR L MASTER PLAN R R FOUR ACADEMIC GOALS, PERFORMANCE GOALS THAT WE WILL CARRY OUT OVER THE NEXT THREE YEARS. MAKING PROGRESS TOWARDS ENGLISH LANGUAGE PROFICIENCY. THE ENGLISH LEARNER PROGRESS INDICATOR OR LP. REPORTS ON THE PROGRESS OF ENGLISH LEARNERS STUDENTS ARE MAKING TOWARDS ENGLISH LANGUAGE PROFICIENCY.

THE LP RELIES ON THE RESULTS OF THE SUMMIT OF L PACK. AS YOU CAN SEE ON THE SCREEN STUDENTS.

ENGLISH LANGUAGE ACQUISITION RESULTS AT THE SUMMIT OF AL PACK. SHOW THAT PROFICIENCY IN ENGLISH LANGUAGE IS THE FIRST STEP FOR STUDENTS DOING WELL IN OTHER SUBJECTS, SUCH AS READING.

WRITING MATHEMATICS AND SCIENCE. THE ENGLISH LEARNER PROGRESS MEASURE LOOKS AT THE PROGRESS THAT ENGLISH LEARNER STUDENTS ARE MAKING TOWARDS ACHIEVING ENGLISH PROFICIENCY.

IMPORTANTLY, TO NOTE. OVER THE PAST THREE YEARS, PY L. ENGLISH LEARNERS HAVE MAINTAINED GROWTH AND OUTPERFORM STATE AVERAGES. OUR FIRST ACADEMIC GOAL IS RELATED TO THE ENGLISH LEARNER.

PROFICIENCY INDICATOR OR LP. WHICH IS MEASURED THROUGH THE SUMMIT OF AL PACK. IN THE SPRING OF 2023. 54.2% OF ENGLISH LEARNERS MADE PROGRESS TOWARDS PROFICIENCY ON THE L PACK. THIS MEANS THAT THE DISTRICT EARNED AND OVERALL HIGH PROGRESS LEVEL FOR THE L P. THIS PERCENTAGE WILL SERVE AS OUR BASELINE STATUS AND WE WILL MEASURE THE CHANGE OVER TIME IN FUTURE ALPACA ADMINISTRATIONS. OUR GOAL IS TO IMPROVE THIS PERFORMANCE BY 3% EACH YEAR. FOR THE SUMMIT OF ALPACA ADMINISTERED IN THE 2223 SCHOOL YEAR. 20% OF ENGLISH LEARNERS ACHIEVED A SCORE OF FOUR. AS SUCH. OUR GOAL IS FOR THE NUMBER OF STUDENTS ACHIEVING A FOUR ON THE L PACK IS TO INCREASE BY 5. EACH YEAR. OUR SECOND ACADEMIC GOAL IS IN THE AREA OF ENGLISH LANGUAGE ARTS IN THE SPRING OF 2023. 11.4% OF ENGLISH AND SCORED AT STANDARD MET OR EXCEEDED. FURTHERMORE, WE FOUND THAT OUR ENGLISH LEARNERS 2068 IN TOTAL SCORED 41 POINTS BELOW STANDARD. WHEN WE FURTHER DISAGGREGATED DATA AND LOOK DEEPER AT THE CURRENT ENGLISH LEARNERS. 1227 WE FIND THAT THEY SCORED 93.8 POINTS BELOW STANDARD WHILE THE CURRENT RECLASSIFIED ENGLISH LEARNERS 841 SCORED 36 POINTS ABOVE STANDARD. AS SUCH. OUR GOAL IS FOR THE PERCENTAGE OF EELS WHO SCORES STANDARD MET OR STANDARD EXCEEDED ON THE SMARTER, BALANCED SUMMIT OF ASSESSMENT TO IMPROVE BY 5% EACH YEAR. ADDITIONALLY OUR GOAL IS FOR 80% OF OUR EELS WILL DECREASE THE DISTANCE FROM STANDARDS BY SEVEN POINTS EACH YEAR. THE DISTANCE FROM STANDARD MEASURES. HOW FAR ON AVERAGE STUDENTS ARE FROM THE LOWEST POSSIBLE SCORE FOR STANDARD MET. STANDARD MET. IS IDENTIFIED AS DEMONSTRATING THE KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS NECESSARY FOR STUDENTS TO BE ON TRACK FOR COLLEGE AND CAREER READINESS AT THEIR GRADE LEVEL. HENCE A DECREASE IN DISTANCE FROM STANDARD IS A POSITIVE INDICATOR OF PROGRESS. OUR THIRD ACADEMIC GOAL IS IN THE AREA OF MATHEMATICS. IN THE SPRING OF 2023 10.6% OF OUR ENGLISH LEARNERS SCORED AT STANDARD MET OR EXCEEDED. OUR ENGLISH LEARNERS 2070 SCORED 66.7 POINTS BELOW STANDARD. AGAIN WHEN WE DISAGGREGATE THE DATA, OUR CURRENT YELLS 1229 SCORED 114.9 POINTS BELOW STANDARD. OUR

[00:35:05]

CURRENT RECLASSIFIED ENGLISH LEARNERS. 841 SCORED 1.2 POINTS BELOW STANDARD, WHICH REPRESENTS A DECLINE OF BOY 0.3 POINTS. AS SUCH, OUR GOAL IS FOR THE PERCENTAGE OF OUR EELS WHO SCORE STANDARD MET OR EXCEEDED. ON THE SMARTER BALANCE ASSESSMENT TO IMPROVE BY 5% EACH YEAR.

ADDITIONALLY, OUR GOAL IS FOR 80% OF OUR HEELS WILL DECREASE THE DISTANCE FROM STANDARD BY FIVE POINTS EACH YEAR. OUR FOURTH ACADEMIC AND FINAL GOAL IS IN THE AREA OF RE CLASSIFICATION. CLASSIFICATION RATE FOR THE 2021 2022 AND 2223 SCHOOL YEAR WERE 12.3% AND 15.3% RESPECTIVELY. AS OF JANUARY. I AM HAPPY TO REPORT THAT WE EVER READ CLASSIFIED A TOTAL OF 334 K TO 12 STUDENTS. AS SUCH, OUR GOAL IS FOR OUR RECLASSIFICATION RATE TO BE AT OR ABOVE THE STATE AVERAGE EACH YEAR. FOLLOWING THE ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE GOALS. THE L MASTER PLAN CONTAINS SIX MAIN OBJECTIVES THAT WE WILL CARRY OUT OVER THE NEXT THREE YEARS. EACH OF THESE OBJECTIVES HAS DETAILED ACTION STEPS TO HELP ENSURE WE WILL ACHIEVE THEM. THERE ARE SIX MAIN OBJECTIVES LISTED IN THE MASTER PLAN AND ARE DETAILED ON THE SIDES. FIRST THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE EEL FRAMEWORK AND HE OH ROADMAP. SECOND PROGRAM EVALUATION. THIRD WE HOPE TO MAXIMIZE THE DISTRICT WIDE ASSESSMENT SYSTEM. NUMBER FOUR PROVIDE RESOURCES AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT.

EQUITABLE RESOURCE ALLOCATION, AND OUR FINAL ONE IS TO COLLABORATE WITH FAMILIES AND COMMUNITY. SO IN CLOSING. AS WE EMBARK ON THIS TRANSFORMATIVE JOURNEY ON BEHALF OF OUR ENGLISH LEARNERS. LET US REMEMBER THAT THE SUCCESS OF OUR STUDENT IS A TESTAMENT OF THE SUCCESS OF OUR EDUCATION AND COMMUNITY. AS A WHOLE. THE MASTER PLAN IS NOT JUST THE DOCUMENT. IT IS A COMMITMENT TO PROVIDING EVERY LEARNER WITH THE TOOLS TO THRIVE AND FOSTERING AN ENVIRONMENT WHERE LINGUISTIC DIVERSITY IS VIEWED AS A SOURCE OF STRENGTH. AND A BRIDGE TO BOUNDLESS OPPORTUNITIES. ON BEHALF OF OUR STUDENTS AND FAMILIES. WE THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND COMMITMENT TO THEIR SUCCESS. THANK YOU. IS THERE ANY COMMENTS OR QUESTIONS BEFORE WE MOVE ON? I HAVE A QUICK QUESTION FOR YOU. YES. I KNOW YOU HAVE BEEN REACHING OUT TO OUR RELAX AND THE DEAL ACT COMMITTEE WHAT HAS BEEN THE RESPONSE FROM OUR ENGLISH LANGUAGE LEARNERS PARENTS? WELL, I THINK THE OVERWHELMING RESPONSE IS TO THE FIRST IS THEY WERE VERY GRATEFUL THAT WE LEAD THEM THROUGH THE PROCESS OF INPUT AND ACTUALLY GETTING THEIR FEEDBACK. AND NUMBER TWO, I THINK IS ACCESS TO THE INFORMATION AND OUR ACTUAL MASTER PLAN WILL BE POSTED ON THE WEBSITE. AND OUR WEBSITE HAS THE ABILITY TO TRANSLATE AND SO MANY DISTRICTS PUT A PDF BUT WE FELT THAT IT REALLY LOOKS CLEAN AND PROFESSIONAL. IT WILL BE IN ENGLISH AND THEN FAMILIES HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO TOGGLE BETWEEN LANGUAGES. SPANISH IS NOT THE ONLY LANGUAGE IN OUR DISTRICT. WE ALSO GET REQUESTS FROM OUR D LACK FARSI AND VIETNAMESE AND MANDARIN. SO IT'S GOING TO BE IN THAT WAY. SO THOSE ARE THE TWO OVERWHELMING COMMENTS THAT WE GOT THAT THE INFORMATION THEY REALLY APPRECIATE THE INFORMATION THAT WE SHARE AND THEN THE ACCESS TO THE INFORMATION IS THE SECOND PART. THANK YOU BECAUSE I REALLY BELIEVE THAT, UM. INFORMATION IS POWER FOR THE PARENTS, SO THEY KNOW WHAT TO BE EXPECTING. I'VE SEEN THE DRAFT OF THE OF THE MASTER PLAN, AND I JUST THINK IT'S SO POWERFUL THAT IT JUST REALLY TEACHES THE PARENTS AND ALL THE GOALS REVERT BACK TO THE PARENTS. THEY'RE GETTING UPDATE REGULAR UPDATES. THEY'RE LEARNING HOW TO, UM BETTER HELP THEIR STUDENTS AND THEIR CHILDREN, YOU KNOW, BECOME PROFICIENT IN ENGLISH, AND I REALLY APPRECIATE ALL THE HARD WORK THAT'S GONE INTO THIS MASTER PLAN AND THE REALLY THOUGHTFUL GOALS OF INCLUDING NOT JUST THE STUDENTS OR NOT JUST THE TEACHERS, BUT EVERYBODY THAT'S WORKING TOGETHER FOR THE SCHOOL. WE'VE LINKED QUITE A BIT OF RESOURCES FOR OUR PARENTS AS IT RELATES TO ALPACA. AND SO AT OUR NEXT DELACRUZ ACTUALLY GOING TO WALK THEM THROUGH ON HOW TO ACTUALLY LOG IN PRACTICE BECAUSE THAT'S HALF THE BATTLE, ACTUALLY LEARNING AND ACTUALLY SEEN AND THEN PRACTICING THE L PACK. UM AND SO THAT'S OUR NEXT FOCUS AT

[00:40:03]

OUR NEXT ELEC. MEETING WHICH AGAIN THERE, IT'S FEEDBACK FROM THEM. WE LISTEN AND WE MADE ADJUSTMENTS TO FOCUS ON THE AL PACK. THAT'S GOOD. DOES IT FUNNEL THEM BACK DOWN TO THE SIDES OF THE, UM AT THE L ACT BEATINGS? YES, SO THEN THEY'LL TAKE THAT INFORMATION AND GO AND SHARE IT WITH THEIR RELAX AS WELL. THANK YOU. YES. DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING? NO THIS IS ALL GREAT WE'RE DOING. I MEAN, THIS. THIS IS GREAT WORK. THANK YOU. YOU'RE A LITTLE QUIET, SO I WANT TO CHECK ON YOU. YEAH. WELL, THANK YOU. UM, I KNOW I WANT TO SAY FIVE OR SIX MONTHS AGO, WE WERE REALLY TALKING ABOUT HOW IMPORTANT THIS WAS, AND WE WERE REALLY FALLING SHORT. AND SO I'M SO EXCITED AND I JUST WANT TO THANK OUR TEAM FOR DOING THIS AND MAKING THIS A PRIORITY. SO THANK YOU SO MUCH. THANK YOU. ALRIGHT SO NEXT, WE ARE GOING TO ENTER INTO A PUBLIC HEARING IN A PUBLIC HEARING WILL BE HELD RELATIVE TO RESOLUTION NUMBER 23-14 THE DEDICATION OF EASEMENT TO SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON FOR RIGHT OF WAY ACCESS TO A CONCRETE PAD TO STAGE CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT TO MAINTAIN THE SLOPE AND ROADWAY FOR ANY REPAIRS OR MAINTENANCE ON EXISTING ELECTRICAL POLES ON THE EASTERN PROPERTY LINE. BERNARDI YORBA MIDDLE SCHOOL.

AND SO I'M IN A DECLARE THE PUBLIC HEARING IS OPEN. AT 1845. AND IS THERE ANY SPEAKERS ON THIS TOPIC? SEEING THAT THERE'S NONE WE WILL CLOSE IT AT 1846. ALRIGHT NOW WE WILL HEAD INTO

[13. PUBLIC COMMENT]

PUBLIC COMMENT. PUBLIC COMMENT IS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR THE PUBLIC TO PROVIDE INPUT TO THE BOARD OF EDUCATION. DURING THE PUBLIC COMMENT PERIOD. BOARD MEMBERS DO NOT DIALOGUE WITH SPEAKERS OR MADE COMMENTS REGARDING THE INFORMATION SHARED. WE HAVE FIVE SPEAKERS WHO ARE WISHING TO SPEAK TONIGHT AND SO EACH SPEAKER WILL HAVE THREE MINUTES EACH. AND SO SINCE WE HAVE FIVE, I'LL HAVE EVERYONE COME UP AND SIT DOWN IN THE FRONT ROWS. AND SO THE FIRST SPEAKER WILL BE NELLIE RAFAEL. SECOND SPEAKER IS JEANNIE PAKE. THIRD SPEAKER IS SHANI MURRAY. FOURTH SPEAKER IS JOHN QUACKENBUSH. AND OUR FIFTH SPEAKER WILL BE JOCELYN BARTOWSKI. SO YOU'LL EACH HAVE THREE MINUTES AND NELLIE WELCOME. WHENEVER YOU'RE READY. HELLO MY NAME IS NELLIE RAFAEL AND AS A PARENT TO TWO CHILDREN CURRENTLY IN P Y EL USD. I'M VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE POSSIBILITY OF INFILTRATION OF PLANNED PARENTHOOD ORGANIZATION AND THEIR INVOLVEMENT IN THE SEXUALIZATION OF P Y EL USD SCHOOLCHILDREN, WHICH IS DEEPLY DISTURBING TO MANY LIKE MINDED PARENTS IN THE DISTRICT. FROM THE YEAR OF 2022 2023 PLANNED PARENTHOOD PROGRAMS FUNDED 228 MILLION WORTH OF SEXUAL EDUCATION GRANTS TO PUBLIC SCHOOLS. PLANNED PARENTHOOD IS BY FAR THE LARGEST PLAYER IN THE GRANT PROCESS. HOW DOES THE PLANNED PARENTHOOD RECEIVED SO MUCH FUNDING? IT'S BECAUSE THEY'RE THE ONES WHO CREATE THE STANDARDS THAT DICTATE THE FUNDING AND ARE INVOLVED EVERY STEP OF THE WAY AS YOU MIGHT IMAGINE. THE STANDARDS SET BY PLANNED PARENTHOOD FOR CHILDREN ARE FAR FROM AGE APPROPRIATE. THERE ARE COUNTLESS GRAY GIS.

EXAMPLES OF THE UGLY EFFECTS OF PLANNED PARENTHOOD'S NEAR MONOPOLY ON SEXUAL EDUCATION IN THE US, THE GUIDES SPONSORED BY PLANNED PARENTHOOD SUGGEST STERILIZATION AS A FORM OF BIRTH CONTROL. IT ALSO ENCOURAGES TEACHERS TO SAY STUDENTS ABILITY TO ROLE PLAY IN THE CLASSROOMS. AS ONE OF THE LARGEST ABORTION PROVIDER, THE SECOND LARGEST PROVIDER OF CROSS SEX HORMONES AND NOW THE PRIMARY SEXUAL HEALTH EDUCATOR IN THE COUNTRY. IT'S DAMAGING INFLUENCE ON THE CURRENT AND FUTURE GENERATIONS IS IN CALCULABLE. THE LAST FEW YEARS DEMONSTRATED THE NEED FOR TRANSPARENCY MEASURES TO TAKE PLACE WITHIN OUR SCHOOL DISTRICT . THE GOVERNMENT CALIFORNIA TEACHERS UNIONS, CERTAIN SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS, THEY THINK THEY CAN REPLACE THE PARENTS BY INDOCTRINATING OUR CHILDREN WITH IDEOLOGY THAT GO AGAINST THE PARENTS WISHES. AND OR OUR RELIGIOUS BELIEFS. I GUARANTEE IF THE SCHOOL BOARD DECIDES TO GO AHEAD WITH THE SALE, FILTRATION OF PLANNED PARENTHOOD, THERE WILL BE MET WITH TWO DILEMMAS. FIRST BEING THAT PARENTS WILL PULL THEIR CHILDREN OUT OF THIS PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM AND CHOOSE TO HOMESCHOOL. WHICH IN REALITY GREW EXPONENTIALLY. THE SECOND DILEMMA YOU WILL FACE WILL BE PARENTS, REMOVING THE BOARD MEMBERS AND OR OFFICIALS WHO ARE TRYING TO BRAINWASH OUR CHILDREN WITH THE RADICAL IDEOLOGIES. WE NEED TO FOCUS AS A COMMUNITY TO ADVOCATE FOR OUR CHILDREN, SPEAK UP FOR THEM AND PUT OUR CHILDREN FIRST. I COMMEND THE BOARD MAJORITY FOR KEEPING PLANNED PARENTHOOD AND COMMUNITY SCHOOLS OUT OF P Y EL USD BECAUSE OF THE RESPECT FOR PARENTS' RIGHTS AND FIGHTING FOR TRANSPARENCY. IN CLOSING. I'D LIKE TO STATE THAT THE GREATEST GIFT OF PARENT CAN GIVE TO THE DARK WORLD IS AN ADULT WHO CAN THINK CRITICALLY CAN DISCERN TRUTH FROM LIES AND UNDERSTAND AND PRACTICE VIRTUE. CHILDREN ARE STILL OUR GREATEST NATURAL RESOURCE AND WE NEED

[00:45:02]

THEM TO COME OF AGE IS EDUCATED, MORALLY SOUND CITIZENS TOGETHER, WE WILL UPHOLD GOD'S TRUTH AND THE LIGHT THAT OVERCOMES THE DARKNESS THAT WE MAY FACE. WE MUST ALSO PRAY FOR OUR CHILDREN AND OUR COUNTRY DAILY. EVERYTHING THAT MATTERS TO US IS IN JEOPARDY. THROUGH HIS GRACE AND STRENGTH WE WILL OVERCOME THANK YOU. THANK YOU NEXT, JEANNIE. HI MY NAME IS JEANNIE PICK. DON'T WORRY. I'M NOT HERE ABOUT THE CALENDAR THAT IS DONE, BUT I HAVE TWO KIDS AT ESPERANZA. I'M HERE TO BRING ATTENTION TO ESPERANZA'S PARKING LOT. ONE TEACHER THERE CALLED IT A CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE. IT'S THE WORST AND IT'S UNSAFE. NOT ONLY IS IT IN NEED OF RE SLURRY AND PAINTING, BUT THE LAYOUT IS HORRIBLE, ESPECIALLY AT THE AREA WHERE THAT TENNIS COURT PARKING LOT EXITS INTO THAT NARROW AREA THAT ESSENTIALLY BECOMES ONE LANE.

CARS ARE PARKED THERE AND THERE'S CARS GOING IN THREE DIRECTIONS, AND THEY HAVE TO SQUEEZE THROUGH THERE. MY DAUGHTER'S CLOSE FRIEND JUST GOT IN A FENDER BENDER LAST WEEK, UM , WITH ANOTHER STUDENT RIGHT AT THAT SPOT, AND I KNEW THAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN. SO THAT'S WHY I'M HERE. UM ALSO THE ENTRANCE EXITS. THEY HAVE TOO BIG OF A DIP WHEN YOU EXIT AND SO EVERYONE'S CAR THAT'S NOT AN SUV GETS BANGED UP IN THE FRONT. THAT TENNIS COURT PARKING LOT IS JUST WEIRD. YOU'VE GOT TO PASS THROUGH IT TO GET TO THE TRACK AND THE BACK AND THAT PARKING LOT BACK. THERE IS BAD, TOO. SO THERE'S JUST SO MANY THINGS WRONG WITH IT. UM I KNOW MONEY IS TIGHT WITH CALIFORNIA'S DEFICIT, BUT IF THERE IS ANY BUDGET AT ALL FOR FACILITY IMPROVEMENT, PLEASE PRIORITIZE. REDOING OUR PARKING LOT. I KNOW MRS. BLADES KNOWS IT WELL, BUT I ENCOURAGE THE REST OF THE BOARD MEMBERS TO DRIVE THROUGH IT AND ITS BUSIEST TIMES AND SEE FOR YOURSELF. AND TRY TO FIND YOUR WAY BACK TO THE TRACK. WE ALSO HAVE SO MANY IN THE COMMUNITY USING ESPERANZA'S FACILITIES LIKE FLAG FOOTBALL, G P THE SWIM CLUB, AND SO IT'S ALSO FOR THE COMMUNITIES BENEFIT AND SAFETY AS WELL. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, JEANNIE. NEXT TO SHANI. HI UM, FIRST I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU FOR THE PRESENTATIONS. THEY WERE VERY INFORMATIVE AND I LOVE HEARING ABOUT THE AMAZING PROGRAMS IN THIS DISTRICT. SO THANK YOU. UM I'M JUST HERE WITH MY CONTINUED PLEA FOR YOU TO STOP CATERING TO THE FALSE FEAR BASED NARRATIVES OF EXTREMISTS.

THE C R T BAND DIDN'T SOLVE AN ACTUAL PROBLEM IN OUR DISTRICT TO CREATED ONE BY PUSHING AWAY STUDENT TEACHERS. THE RECENT OUTING POLICY DOESN'T ACTUALLY PROTECT STUDENTS. IT TARGETS THE LBGT COMMUNITY. I WILL SAY THAT NOTIFYING PARENTS OF A NEW BOOK BEING PILOTED IN A CLASSROOM MAKES SENSE BUT REQUIRING BOARD APPROVAL BOTH BEFORE AND AFTER PILOTING DOES NOT IT STIFLES STUDENT FEEDBACK, WHICH IS WHAT MOTIVATED YOU TO APPROVE PERSEPOLIS. SO PLEASE FOCUS ON COMMON SENSE SOLUTIONS AND PRIORITIZE RATHER THAN SILENCE THE VOICES OF LOCAL STUDENTS AND EDUCATORS. I SAW YOU DO THIS WITH YOUR UNANIMOUS VOTE AGAINST THE CRL A CHARTER. THANK YOU. I WAS DISAPPOINTED. THE ORANGE COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION OVERRULED YOUR DECISION, BUT WE NEED TO SUPPORT OUR LOCAL STUDENTS, ESPECIALLY WHEN THE COUNTY BOARD WON'T I HOPE YOU WILL WORK TO BUILD A RESPECTFUL, SUPPORTIVE ENVIRONMENT FOR ALL STUDENTS CAN THRIVE ACADEMICALLY. THANK YOU. OKAY JOHN. GOOD EVENING BOARD MEMBERS AND THANK YOU, UM SO I ALSO WANT TO BE A VOICE FOR THE PARENTS THAT WE DON'T HEAR ABOUT A LOT THAT DO BELIEVE IN PARENTS' RIGHTS, TOO, BUT THE RIGHT FOR THE CHILD TO LEARN EVERYTHING THE RIGHT FOR SEX EDUCATION, THE RIGHT TO LEARN ABOUT PEOPLE THAT ARE LIKE THEMSELVES, GOING THROUGH TRANSITIONS OR JUST THE R TRANSITION FROM ELEMENTARY JUNIOR TO HIGH SCHOOL AND TO ADULTHOOD, UH, LEARN ABOUT RACISM, SLAVERY, THE GOOD THE BAD. YOU KNOW EVERYTHING THAT WE CAN IN AN EDUCATIONAL FORM WITH THE TEACHER THAT'S KNOWLEDGEABLE, AND THAT CAN UH, FACILITATE THE CONVERSATION AND BE ABLE TO EXPRESS ALLOW ESPECIALLY IN HIGH SCHOOL ALLOWS THE STUDENTS TO EXPRESS THEIR FEELINGS AND THEIR UNDERSTANDINGS AND MAKE THOSE CORRECTIONS OR, UM, UH, FACTS ALLOW THE YOU KNOW, FACTS AND THINGS. UM SOME OF THE OTHER THINGS I THINK OF IS THAT YOU KNOW, WE TALKED ABOUT, UM, SEX, EDUCATION AND ALL THOSE THINGS LIKE AND I AM 14. I WANT OUR STUDENTS TO LEARN EVERYTHING FROM CONCERTS, CONTRACEPTIONS TO ABSTINENCE THE WHOLE GAMUT OF SEXUAL EDUCATION AND TO REALIZE THAT THIS IS A SECULAR INSTITUTION. IT'S NOT, UH,

[00:50:03]

RELIGIOUS INSTITUTION, SO IF WE HAVE RELIGIOUS BELIEFS, I HAVE RELIGIOUS BELIEFS. I TALKED TO MY DAUGHTER. I GO TO CHURCH, AND WE HAVE THOSE CONVERSATIONS, BUT AT THE SAME TIME, THERE'S THOSE THAT DON'T HAVE THE SAME RELIGIOUS BELIEFS THAT I DO THAT AREN'T RELIGIOUS, AND WE NEED TO ALLOW THE STUDENTS TO HAVE THE FULL EDUCATION SO THAT THEY UNDERSTAND THE CONSEQUENCES OF THINGS AND CAN HAVE THAT CONVERSATION FROM A CHILD COMES HOME. I ALWAYS ASK HER HOW THE DAY IS TALK TO THEM. FIND OUT THE THINGS I DON'T ALWAYS GET THE INFORMATION FOR THAT DAY, BUT THREE OR FOUR DAYS DOWN THE LINE I MIGHT GET, YOU KNOW THE PREVIOUS DAY'S INFORMATION AND STUFF, BUT WHEN SHE'S READY TO TALK TO ME, SHE TALKS TO US, MY WIFE AND MYSELF. SOMETIMES SHE TALKS MY WIFE INSTEAD OF ME, BUT YOU KNOW WE ARE. EACH PARENT HAS THEIR OWN SPOT WITH THAT. UM, SO, UM SO YOU KNOW AND CAUSING TO PIT UP SUPPOSED BANDS AND THINGS OF THAT MIGHT BE TAUGHT AT HIGHER EDUCATION. ALWAYS GET WORRIED THAT WE STAY FOR SOME OF THE ABILITIES FOR TEACHERS TO FEEL COMFORTABLE TALKING ABOUT CIVIL RIGHTS. TALKING ABOUT SLAVERY, TALKING ABOUT WORLD WAR TWO TALKING ABOUT RECONSTRUCTION . THERE'S A LOT OF DETAILS IN THERE THAT WE'RE ALL LEARNING ABOUT LEARNING NEW THINGS ABOUT FROM MY PREVIOUS EDUCATION ON THAT, AND SINCE I'M WRAPPING UP ON TIME HERE, I WANTED TO SAY THAT IT WAS GREAT HEARING THE STUFF I WAS ONCE ON A SCHOOL SITE COUNCIL, AND THE BIG THING WAS GETTING ENGLISH LAND LEARNING PARENTS. THEY'RE AT THE COMMITTEES, AND IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU'RE DOING THAT AND I THINK THAT'S A GREAT DEAL AND GOOD GLAD TO SEE THAT IMPROVEMENT AND THOSE WONDERFUL THINGS THAT DISTRICT IS DOING. THANK YOU.

LAST SPEAKER WILL BE JOCELYN. HMM. GOOD EVENING. MY NAME IS JOCELYN BARTOWSKI. BEEN IN OUR DISTRICT FOR 15 YEARS, UM, WITH MY TWO YOUNGER KIDS AND A LITTLE LONGER WITH MY OLDER ONE, BUT MORE SPECIFICALLY IN THE PAST 15 YEARS I'VE CONSISTENTLY BEEN ASKING FOR SPECIAL EDUCATION STUDENTS TO BE INCLUDED WITH THEIR GENERAL EDUCATION PEERS. TO HAVE HIGHER LEVELS OF EXPECTATION FOR THEM AND TO GRADUATE FROM HIGH SCHOOL WITH A DIPLOMA. I'VE NEVER GIVEN UP BELIEVING. BELIEVING IN MY SON AND BELIEVING AND OTHER STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES. THAT THEY CAN ACHIEVE GREAT THINGS. THANK YOU, MRS BLADES. BRINGING ATTENTION TO THIS. THANK YOU. DR TURNER'S FOR BELIEVING. AND THANK YOU, MRS GRAY FOR BELIEVING AND FOR YOUR DEDICATION. THIS PROMOTION IS WELL DESERVED, AND I LIKE FORWARD TO YOUR GREATER INFLUENCE ACROSS OUR DISTRICT. I'M ALSO THRILLED WITH THE INNOVATIVE PATHWAY. BEING BUILT WITH THE NEW CHARTER AT O. C S. C. S THAT TRULY ALLOWS FOR INDIVIDUAL EDUCATION PLANS TO BE EXECUTED IN AMAZING WAYS. HONESTLY ALL STUDENTS WILL HAVE A BETTER OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE THEIR EDUCATION IN ACADEMICS THAT INDIVIDUALLY AS WELL. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

HMM. ALRIGHT WE'RE GOING TO MOVE INTO OUR GENERAL FUNCTIONS. CAN I HAVE A MOTION, PLEASE? I'LL

[14. ACTION ITEMS - GENERAL FUNCTIONS ]

MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE PEACH JAR DIGITAL FLYER DISTRIBUTION PLATFORM. SECOND DR TURNESS. OKAY OKAY. WELL, ONE OF MY GOALS HERE IS TO IMPROVE COMMUNICATION DISTRICT WIDE. WE STARTED THAT BEGINNING OF THE YEAR WITH THE STATE OF THE DISTRICT EVENT. UM WE CONTINUED WITH SUPERINTENDENT ROUNDTABLES AND TONS OF HUNDREDS OF PARENTS INVOLVED AND ENGAGED IN OUR COMMUNITY. UM UM DURING NIGHTLY SESSIONS. AH WE HAVE MONDAY MESSAGES WHERE WE'RE PUSHING OUT A LOT OF INFORMATION. RELEVANT INFORMATION TO PARENTS. UM AND NOW WE'RE LOOKING AT STREAMLINING THE PROCESS BY WHICH WE SEND NOTICES TO PARENTS , SO I'M VERY EXCITED FOR OUR DIRECTOR ALYSSA TO COME UP AND SHARE THIS NEW PROGRAM WITH THE BOARD. THANK YOU, DOCTOR TURNESS. WELL. GOOD EVENING. PRESIDENT BLADES TRUSTEES SUPERINTENDENT, DR TURNER IS AN EXECUTIVE CABINET MEMBERS. I AM GRATEFUL TO BE HERE THIS EVENING TO SHARE A BRIEF PRESENTATION ABOUT MANY OF THE WAYS WE FOSTERED ENGAGED COMMUNITY IN THE PLACENTA, BLENDING UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT AND A NEW DIGITAL FIRE PLATFORM. WE ARE SEEKING YOUR APPROVAL ON TO HELP OUR EFFORTS IN THIS IMPORTANT AREA. AS YOU ARE AWARE, ONE OF OUR FOCAL POINTS AS A SCHOOL

[00:55:04]

DISTRICT IS TO ESTABLISH AN ENGAGED COMMUNITY OR RATHER A CULTURE THAT ENCOURAGES POSITIVE RELATIONSHIPS AMONG OUR STAKEHOLDERS, INCLUDING OUR STUDENTS, STAFF AND FAMILIES, AS WELL AS OUR EDUCATIONAL, BUSINESS AND COMMUNITY PARTNERS. ONE OF THE MANY WAYS STAFF WORKS TO ACCOMPLISH. THIS IS BY UTILIZING ALL AVAILABLE RESOURCES TO COMMUNICATE WITH DISTRICT STAKEHOLDERS IN THE COMMUNITY AT LARGE. IN FACT, WE MAKE IT A POINT TO ENGAGE WITH OUR COMMUNITY REGULARLY AND THROUGH ONLINE PLATFORMS, PRINT MATERIALS AND IN PERSON MEETINGS. OUR SCHOOL DISTRICT AND OUR SCHOOLS DO THIS BY USING A VARIETY OF STRATEGIES AND TOOLS LIKE OUR WEBSITES, SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS, ADVISORY COUNCILS AND COMMITTEES, PRINT AND DIGITAL ADVERTISEMENTS, EMAILS AND NEWSLETTERS. TEXT MESSAGES, PHONE CALLS, MOBILE PHONE APP NOTIFICATIONS, VIDEOS, SURVEYS, MEDIA RELATIONS, OTHER INFORMATIONAL MEETINGS AND SO MUCH MORE. NEW THIS YEAR AND UNDER THE DIRECTION OF DR CHARNESS. WE HAVE ENHANCED OUR EFFORTS TO ENGAGE OUR COMMUNITY THROUGH THE ADDITION OF OUR BIWEEKLY MONDAY MESSAGE NEWSLETTER, AS WAS MENTIONED FROM THE SUPERINTENDENT, WHICH IS SHARED WITH ALL STAFF, FAMILIES AND LOCAL COMMUNITY LEADERS. AT THE SUGGESTION OF THE BOARD. WE HAVE STARTED NOTIFYING ALL STAFF AND FAMILIES DIRECTLY VIA EMAIL ABOUT UPCOMING BOARD MEETINGS WHILE POSTING THIS INFORMATION PROMINENTLY ON OUR WEBSITE AND SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS. WE HAVE EXPANDED THE OPPORTUNITIES FOR OUR FAMILIES TO PARTICIPATE IN THE SUPERINTENDENT'S COMMUNITY ADVISORY COMMITTEE FROM ONE GROUP TO FOUR GROUPS DIVIDED BY ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, MIDDLE SCHOOL, HIGH SCHOOL AND SPECIAL EDUCATION FAMILIES. AND IN AN EFFORT TO CONTINUE ENHANCING THE WAYS IN WHICH WE ENGAGE OUR COMMUNITY. TONIGHT WE ARE SEEKING THE BOARD'S APPROVAL TO EXPLAIN THE LIST OF TOOLS WE USED TO INCLUDE A NEW DIGITAL FLYER DISTRIBUTION PLATFORM. TO THAT END BOARD POLICY 1315 DISTRIBUTION OF MATERIALS IN SCHOOLS SETS FORTH THE FOLLOWING THE BOARD OF EDUCATION RECOGNIZES THAT THERE MAY BE LEGITIMATE NEEDS FOR THE USE OF THE DISTRICTS DISTRIBUTION CAPABILITIES BY COMMUNITY GROUPS IN ORDER TO DISTRIBUTE INFORMATION FLYERS TO STUDENTS FOR PURPOSES OTHER THAN THE CONDUCT OF THE EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM. OUR HOPE IS TO IMPROVE UPON OUR EXISTING PROCESS FOR COLLECTING AND DISTRIBUTING SUCH MATERIALS WITH PEACH JAR. PEACH STAR IS A LEADING CLOUD BASED COMMUNICATION PLATFORM THAT STREAMLINES THE PROCESS OF DISTRIBUTING SCHOOL IN DISTRICT UPDATES AND COMMUNITY RESOURCES DIRECTLY TO STAKEHOLDERS AS DIGITAL FLYERS. DISTRICT APPROVED FLYERS ARE SENT TO FAMILIES IN BOXES AND POSTED TO SCHOOL SPECIFIC ONLINE FLYER BOARDS. PEACH JAR DOES NOT COLLECT OR ACCESS ANY PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE STUDENT INFORMATION AS IT ONLY NEEDS PARENT EMAIL ADDRESSES AND ASSOCIATED SCHOOLS. OVER 1000 SCHOOL DISTRICTS NATIONWIDE USE PEACH JAR, INCLUDING SURROUNDING DISTRICTS SUCH AS FULLERTON, GARDEN GROVE, NEWPORT, MESA AND SANTA ANA. IT IS OUR BELIEF THAT PEACH STAR WILL OFFER A WIDE RANGE OF BENEFITS FOR OUR DISTRICT, OUR FAMILIES AND OUR COMMUNITY PARTNERS. FOR DISTRICT PEACH STAR WILL PROVIDE GREATER CONTROL OVER FLYERS BEING SENT HOME, RESULTING IN MORE EQUITY ACROSS SCHOOLS AND LESS WORK FOR OUR STAFF. IT WILL ALSO OFFER TIME SAVINGS BY MANAGING FLYER APPROVAL AND DIRECT DELIVERY DIGITALLY WHILE SERVING AS ANOTHER GOOD NEWS CHANNEL, RESULTING IN MORE POSITIVE COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT. FOR FAMILIES. PEACH STAR WILL DELIVER VITAL DISTRICT SCHOOL AND COMMUNITY RESOURCES VIA EMAIL FOR EASY ON THE GO ACCESS WHILE CREATING A CENTRALIZED ONLINE PORTAL FOR DIGITAL FLYERS AND A VARIETY OF LANGUAGES. AND FOR OUR COMMUNITY PARTNERS, PH.

D. R WILL INCREASE REGISTRATIONS AND INTERACTIONS VIA EMAIL. SORRY. INTERACTIONS WITH FLYERS WILL PROVIDING CAMPAIGN METRICS TO TRACK ENGAGEMENT. IT WILL ALSO ALLOW ORGANIZATIONS TO EASILY SEND DISTRICT APPROVED FLYERS TO MULTIPLE SCHOOLS HASSLE FREE. USING PEACH JAR IS EASY FOR STAFF SIMPLY UPLOAD A FLYER TO GENERATE A PERIODIC EMAIL TO FAMILIES AND TO UPDATE AND ONLINE FLYER BOARD. ACCESS TO FLARE BOARDS WILL ALSO BE MADE AVAILABLE ON WEB SITES THROUGHOUT NEWSLETTERS AND ON THE DISTRICT'S EXISTING MOBILE APP. AND USING PEACH. DARFUR IS CONVENIENT FOR OUR COMMUNITY PARTNERS SIMPLY UPLOAD A FLYER TO SELECT SCHOOLS AND WAIT FOR DISTRICT APPROVAL. THERE WILL BE NO COST FOR RP TAS BOOSTERS AND EDUCATION FOUNDATION TO UTILIZE THE POWER OF PEACH JAR. WELL OUTSIDE USER GROUPS WILL BE CHARGED A VERY SMALL FEE. IF AND WHEN APPROVED, THE DISTRICTS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT WILL AUTOMATICALLY BE ADDED TO A FLYER AND IT WILL THEN BE INCLUDED IN THE SCHOOLS ONLINE FLYER BOARD. PIXAR WILL ALSO PROVIDE TRAINING FOR DISTRICT AND SCHOOL STAFF. FLYER TEMPLATES TO ASSIST WITH SHARING INFORMATION FLYER BOARD DESIGNED FOR STAFF MEMBERS IF WE SO CHOOSE A COMMUNITY FREE PROGRAM,

[01:00:07]

WHERE PEACH DARK COVERS THE SMALL FEE FOR LOCAL CHARITIES TO PROMOTE FREE PROGRAMS, EVENTS AND RESOURCES WHERE CHILDREN ARE THE DIRECT BENEFICIARY. IN CLOSING. WE THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION OF PEACH, DAR AND ALL OF THE WAYS IN WHICH YOU SUPPORT AND CREATE AN ENGAGED COMMUNITY HERE IN THE PLACENTA OR BELINDA UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT ON THAT TENANT TURNING BACK DEAL. THANK YOU. DO WE HAVE ANY COMMENTS OR QUESTIONS? HMM I JUST HAD A QUESTION ON THE APPROVAL PROCESS. WHO YOU KNOW WHAT DEPARTMENT DOES IT GO THROUGH AND THEN WHEN THEY GET TO THE SCHOOL SITE, OBVIOUSLY IT'S APPROVED AS A FLYER. BUT HOW CAN IT BE USED AS A PAPER FLYER? AND HOW DOES IT ALSO GET THAT? UM THE DISTRICT PIECE ON THAT. SURE SO DISTRICT STAFF WILL BE THE APPROVING ENTITY OF YOU KNOW EACH FLYER AND THEN IT WILL BE PUSHED DOWN FOR THE SCHOOL SITE FOR THEIR SITE ADMINISTRATORS. IS IT STILL GOING TO BE THROUGH RISK MANAGEMENT LIKE IT IS NOW IT WILL BE THROUGH THE COMMUNICATIONS DEPARTMENT AND THE SUPERINTENDENT'S OFFICE NOW. CURRENTLY, IT'S HOUSING OUR EDUCATIONAL SERVICES DEPARTMENT.

UM AND THEN? YES, ONCE A FLYER IS APPROVED OUR DISCLOSURE STATEMENT STATING THAT CERTAIN EVENTS AREN'T DISTRICT SPONSORED EVENTS WILL BE ADDED TO IT AUTOMATICALLY, AND SCHOOLS CAN CERTAINLY GO ABOUT PRINTING FLYERS STILL IF THEY LIKE, BUT THAT'S WHAT PEACH JAR REALLY TOUTS GETTING SCHOOLS AND DISTRICTS AWAY FROM IS JUST THE USE OF PAPER WHEN RATHER USING A, UM, AN EASY, ACCESSIBLE ONLINE PORTAL IF A COMMUNITY MEMBER ORGANIZATION WANTED TO HAVE PAPER FLIERS SUBMITTED TO SCHOOL TO BE DISTRIBUTED, UM WOULD HOW WOULD THEY COORDINATE THAT PROCESS? WOULD IT STILL BE HOW IT IS NOW WHAT? WHAT WOULD THAT LOOK LIKE? WE WOULD CERTAINLY MAKE THAT YOU KNOW A POSSIBILITY FOR THE SCHOOL SITES TO STILL DISTRIBUTE THE PAPER FLYERS. WHAT I WOULD SAY IS THAT HAPPENING ON A VERY LITTLE RARE RARE BASIS RIGHT NOW, EVEN JUST AS WE'VE MOVED TO BE SO DIGITALLY AS A DISTRICT, BUT WE WOULD COORDINATE THAT STILL ADDING ME DISTRICT APPROVED STATEMENT ON THERE AND THEN MAKING SURE THAT THE SCHOOLS DISTRIBUTED DISTRIBUTED IT IN THAT WAY AS WELL. THANK YOU. I JUST WANTED TO ASK THEM. SO ARE MOST OF THE SCHOOLS GOING ALREADY DIGITAL, AND THERE'S JUST SEVERAL. ARE THERE ANY SCHOOLS THAT HAVE A POPULATION THAT DON'T HAVE ACCESS TO EMAILS OR THAT TYPE OF, UM SERVICE. OR DO YOU SEE THAT AS AN ISSUE? CERTAINLY I KNOW THAT WE HAVE MADE GREAT STRIDES AND GETTING OUR COMMUNITY HOOKED UP DIGITALLY OVER RECENT YEARS. IT'S SOMETHING WE CAN LOOK INTO WITH OUR SPECIFIC SCHOOL SITES. I'M THINKING EVEN OUR TITLE MINT SITES AND CONNECTING WITH THEM IN A WAY THAT WILL MAKE THIS MOST ACCESSIBLE FOR THEM. I KNOW OUR TECHNOLOGY DEPARTMENT IN RECENT YEARS HAS REALLY SET A MODEL OF GOING OUT AND WALKING FAMILIES THROUGH HOW TO DO ONLINE DATA CONFIRMATION OR SIGN UP FOR A GMAIL ACCOUNT SO THEY CAN ACCESS THEIR STUDENTS.

AREAS, PORTAL OR WHATEVER. IT MAY BE THEIR INFORMATION ON BEHALF OF THEIR STUDENTS, SO WE COULD CERTAINLY LOOK INTO DOING SOMETHING LIKE THAT AS WELL FOR THIS. THANK YOU. I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE EVERYBODY HAS ACCESS THAT WE'RE NOT CUTTING OFF ANY POPULATIONS IN OUR IN OUR DISTRICT. HMM AND ALSO MY LAST QUESTION IS ABOUT THE FEE. DO YOU HAVE AN ESTIMATE OF WHAT THE FEE IS FOR OUTSIDE? UM MHM. SO THE FEAR IS $25 PER SCHOOL PER FLYER. AND THAT'S. BUT THEN YOU SAID, LIKE NONPROFITS, AND THINGS LIKE THAT WOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY THE FEE CORRECT. HMM.

THIS MIGHT BE SOMETHING GOOD TO TAKE TO OUR OPEN HOUSES AS THEY'RE HAPPENING, ESPECIALLY AS THE TITLE ONE SCHOOLS AND SO THAT YOU COULD DO SOME OF THAT ON BOARDING WITH PARENTS ON THOSE NIGHTS THAT THEIR ON SITE ABSOLUTELY GREAT IDEA. ALL RIGHT. ANYTHING ELSE? OKAY? WAIT WAIT, WAIT, WAIT. SORRY. OKAY. TODD. GOING TO A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS. UM, I I'M A DIGITAL PROPONENT. SO I'M A FAN OF THIS. UM WHAT IS THE APP COMPONENT OF IT? SO PETE STAR WILL INTEGRATE INTO OUR EXISTING, UM, MOBILE APP THAT THE DISTRICT HAS, AND THAT'S THROUGH FORMERLY BLACKBOARD. IT'S NOW THROUGH FINAL SITE, SO THEY'LL WE'LL JUST ADD A BUTTON TO THE PEACH JAR ONLINE FLYER BOARD TO OUR EXISTING APP. IT'S NOT THEIR OWN UNIQUE APP. IT'S JUST GOING TO BE AN OURS. OKAY. GOOD. SO IT'S NOT ANOTHER APP. THAT'S GOOD. THE OTHER QUESTION IS. WHAT KIND OF ANALYTICS DO WE HAVE? AS FAR AS OPENS, READS, THAT KIND OF STUFF IS THAT PROVIDED IN THIS

[01:05:05]

ON THE BACK END DASHBOARD? YES ABSOLUTELY. UM PETE SURE WILL GIVE DISTRICT STAFF AND THEN AS WELL AS OUR COMMUNITY PARTNERS THAT DECIDE TO ADVERTISE THROUGH PEACH JAR FULL METRICS IN TERMS OF OPEN RATE AND EVEN CLICKS ON CERTAIN BUTTONS THAT ARE ADDED TO FLYERS. THEY PROVIDE THAT IN THE BACK END FOR US TO UTILIZE AND WORK OFF OF NO GOOD THAT THAT WOULD BE PROBABLY THE BIGGEST THING THAT I SEE AS AN ADVANTAGE FOR THOSE OTHER THAN THE FACT THAT YOU KNOW DIGITAL IS WHERE EVERYTHING'S GOING SO GREAT. THANK YOU APPRECIATE IT. ABSOLUTELY. OKAY. THANK YOU.

UM AND LASTLY, UH, I DO SHARE A SUPERINTENDENT CONCERNS ABOUT ASSEMBLY BILL 730 FOR, UM, THIS BILL IS BANNING TACKLE FOOTBALL FOR CHILDREN, 12 YEARS AND UNDER . UM WELL, THIS DOESN'T DIRECTLY IMPACT DISTRICT PROGRAMS. IT

[01:20:05]

DOES IMPACT MANY, MANY OF OUR STUDENTS. UM, AS A PARENT, I SEE IT COULD COULD BE IMPACTING STUDENTS. MENTAL HEALTH. UM AND IT'S JUST IT'S A NONSENSICAL. UM UH, OVERREACH, GOVERNMENTAL OVERREACH. UM, I DID SOME DATA HERE DIGGING HERE. THERE'S A MILLION STUDENTS MILLION CHILDREN IN THE UNITED STATES THAT DO BRAZILIAN JUJITSU. UM CONTACT, HAND TO HAND CONTACT.

YOU WIN THE MATCHES, OFTENTIMES BY SUBMISSION. AH THERE'S A MILLION KIDS THAT DO TACKLE FOOTBALL. THERE'S 275,000 KIDS THAT DO ICE HOCKEY. THERE'S 200,000 KIDS THAT DO LACROSSE.

THERE'S 150,000 KIDS THAT DO WRESTLING SO TO SINGLE OUT TACKLE FOOTBALL WHEN THERE'S OTHER CONTACT SPORTS THAT KIDS DON'T EVEN HAVE PADS ON. UM IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE. THERE WAS ALREADY THE REFORM ACT. UM TACKLE FOOTBALL REFORM ACT TWO YEARS AGO, UM THERE'S A TON OF SAFETY PRECAUTIONS. THERE'S TRAINING COACHES ARE TRAINED AND FOR A LOT OF THESE KIDS, THIS IS THIS IS THEIR THEIR WAY TO BE ENGAGED. UM THIS IS THEIR WAY TO BE ENGAGED IN LIFE, AND WE NEED TO HAVE FAITH IN OUR PARENTS TO MAKE THOSE CHOICES FOR THEIR CHILDREN AND NOT HAVE TO HAVE THE STATE COME IN AND SAY. YOU KIDS CAN'T PLAY FOOTBALL. YOU CAN'T PLAY TACKLE FOOTBALL. SO UM, I GET TO SAFETY CONCERNS, BUT THEY'RE LIKE I SAID, THERE'S A TON OF OTHER CONTACT SPORTS THAT AREN'T BEING SINGLED OUT HERE. SO I WILL BE ADVOCATING AGAINST THIS. I THINK IT IMPACTS THE MENTAL HEALTH OF MANY OF OUR STUDENTS IN THIS DISTRICT AND STATE WIDE AND IT'S VERY CONCERNING THAT THIS THIS TYPE OF BILL IS MOVING FORWARD. AND IF THIS DOES PASS, THEN WHAT IS WHAT'S THE NEXT SPORT THAT'S GOING TO BE, UM, THAT'S GONNA BE BANNED FOR OUR KIDS. SO THAT CONCLUDES MY REPORT. THANK YOU, DOCTOR TURNESS. OKAY.

TO THE WHOLE L COMMUNITY IN DECEMBER. I ATTENDED SO MANY WONDERFUL, MEANINGFUL, UPLIFTING EVENTS THAT TRULY HIGHLIGHTED OUR DISTRICT FOR WHO WE ARE CARING COMMUNITY. AND. THERE WAS SO MANY PEOPLE INVOLVED IN ALL THESE DIFFERENT THINGS, AND I

[01:25:06]

JUST WANTED TO THANK THEM ALL, UM, FOR THEIR MOMENTS OF GIVING FOR HOLIDAY CHEER. UM. AND I'M JUST SO GRATEFUL FOR THEM. THEY SO MANY PEOPLE MADE MAGIC HAPPEN HERE AT L IN DECEMBER, SO I WANTED TO GIVE A BIG SHOUT OUT TO THAT. AND SO HERE ARE SOME OF THE THINGS THAT I PERSONALLY WITNESSED. UM I WITNESSED THE GEORGE KEY CHRISTMAS PARTY SPONSORED BY THE SUNRISE ROTARY.

AND ALL THE KIDS WERE DRESSED IN THEIR CHRISTMAS BEST. THEY LOOKED AMAZING, AND THEY WERE EXCITED TO BE THERE AND ENJOY A FUN CHRISTMAS PARTY. I WENT TO THE TINSEL CONCERT AT ELDORADO, AND IT WAS A WONDERFUL, UM, CONCERT TONIGHT FILLED WITH MUSIC AND HOLIDAY SPIRIT. I ATTENDED WITH MS PAC. THE ELDORADO JAZZ BREAKFAST, AND IT WAS A GREAT MORNING OF MUSIC.

VERY FESTIVE ATTIRE. AND AH, YUMMY BREAKFAST, UM, ALSO WENT TO RUBY DRIVE ELEMENTARY AND WAS THERE WHEN ESPERANZA STUDENTS CAME AND SPREAD CHRISTMAS CHEER AT THAT SCHOOL. THERE WAS 100 AND 80 ESPERANZA'S STUDENTS AND THEY WERE INCLUDED, UM ATHLETES UNIFIED P A. S B AND THEY CAME AND WENT. IT WAS JUST INCREDIBLE TO WATCH. THEY WERE SPREAD OUT THROUGHOUT THE ALL THE CLASSROOMS AND BROUGHT PRESENTS FOR EACH CHILD THAT WAS WRAPPED. AND THEY INTERACTED WITH THE STUDENTS, HELPING THEM WITH A PROJECT OR CHRISTMAS ASSIGNMENT, DEPENDING ON THE AGE AND UM, AND PLAYED WITH THE STUDENTS AFTER THEY OPENED THEM, AND I JUST SAW SO MANY WONDERFUL INTERACTIONS WITH OUR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS WITH OUR ELEMENTARY STUDENTS AND UM, I WAS JUST REALLY GRATEFUL TO BE THERE. I ALSO WENT TO THE VENTURE REQUIRE UM, CHRISTMAS CONCERT, AND IT WAS TRULY SOUNDED AMAZING. AND UM, THE CHRISTMAS CHEER THAT THOSE STUDENTS BROUGHT WITH CONTAGIOUS TO EVERYBODY IN THE ROOM. AND. I'M KEEPING GOING HERE. I WENT TO THE APPLE, UM, GIFT GIVEAWAY, AND IT WAS TRULY OVERWHELMING TO SEE ALL THE LOVE THAT WAS SHARED ON SO MANY FAMILIES THROUGHOUT THE DISTRICT. UM AND I GOT TO, YOU KNOW, SIT AT THE TABLE AND COLOR AND VISIT WITH THE FAMILIES THAT WERE BEING, UM THAT CAME THERE TO GET THEIR PRESENCE AND TO CURE A FEW OF THEIR THEIR HEARTWARMING STORIES . AND I'M JUST SO GRATEFUL. UM FOR EVERYBODY THAT WAS INVOLVED IN PUTTING THIS TOGETHER AND THEN ALSO, I ATTENDED THE DISTRICT HOLIDAY LUNCHEON WITH UM LEANDRA AND CARRY AND THEY WERE COLLECTING FOOD FOR OUR FAMILY RESOURCE CENTER, AND WE ENJOYED AN AMAZING PERFORMANCE BY THE VALENCIA HIGH SCHOOL JAZZ CHOIR. IN NON HOLIDAY EVENTS. I ATTENDED THE AVERAGE SHOWCASED AT RUBY DRIVE. UM I LEARNED HOW ACROSS GRADE LEVEL THEY INFUSED THE AVID SKILLS THROUGH WRITING INQUIRY AND COLLABORATION ORGANIZATION AND READING. AND I REALLY ENJOYED LEARNING MORE ABOUT THE AVID THROUGH THEIR STUDENT EVENT. UM AMBASSADORS, THEY HAVE ACTUAL STUDENTS THAT WALK YOU AROUND THE ROOM AND SHOW YOU ALL THE DIFFERENT THINGS AND HOW IT RELATES TO AVID AND WHAT THEY LEARNED AND YOU CAN ASK THEM QUESTIONS LIKE, WELL, WHY DID YOU DO THIS? AND YOU KNOW, AND THEY CAN TELL YOU AND WHY USE IT THIS WAY, AND IT HELPS ME YOU KNOW? FROM VERY YOUNG LIKE DIANA TOTED MY NOTES, AND THEN I COULD USE THOSE AND YOU KNOW IT WAS JUST A REALLY GREAT EXPERIENCE. I HIGHLY SUGGEST ANYBODY WHO CAN GO TO THAT. UM, IN THE FUTURE. YOU'LL LEARN A LOT. UM ALSO THIS WEEKEND, I WENT TO AN EAGLE COURT OF HONOR WHERE NINE OF OUR STUDENTS, UM FROM OUR DISTRICT OR IN THE RANK OF EAGLE. AND I WAS HONORED TO BE THERE AND CONGRATULATE THESE STUDENTS FOR THEIR OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT AND MANY OF THE EAGLE PROJECTS THAT THESE STUDENTS THAT ARE STUDENTS DID BENEFITED OUR SCHOOLS. THEY ACTUALLY DID THEM IN OUR IN OUR LOCAL SCHOOLS, AND WE WERE RECIPIENTS OF ALL THEIR HARD WORK AND I'M JUST GRATEFUL FOR THEM. SO THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN UP TO. WELL, I DEFINITELY HAVEN'T BEEN UP TO THAT MUCH. AS A MATTER OF FACT, I WAS PROBABLY , UM, THE ONE THAT DIDN'T DO TOO MUCH THIS THIS SINCE OUR LAST TIME IT SEEMED LIKE IT WAS A WHIRLWIND OF OUTSIDE ACTIVITY.

BUT AS FAR AS THE DISTRICT WISE, I THINK I THINK I READ A LITTLE BOOK CALLED THE WAVE, WHICH WAS WAS SENT TO ME AND UM OTHER THAN THAT, YOU KNOW, TRY TO KIND OF REFLECT ON HOW THINGS CAN

[01:30:07]

DEFINITELY CHANGE GIVEN, UH, CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES, SO IF YOU NOT READ IT, IT'S A QUICK, EASY READ BUT HAS A BIG MESSAGE BEHIND IT. SO UM, IF ANYTHING, I KNOW THAT OUR TEAM HAS BEEN WORKING THROUGH THE HOLIDAYS. AND I TRULY APPRECIATE THE HARD WORK THEY PUT IN IN ORDER TO GET THREE BARGAINING COMMITTEES. UH DONE AND TAKEN CARE OF, AND I APPRECIATE DR GATES FOR THAT THAT WORK AND HIS TEAM ALSO ANYONE ELSE THAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IN THOSE THINGS. I REALLY APPRECIATE IT AND THANK YOU FOR MAKING OUR JOB MUCH EASIER. SO OTHER THAN THAT, THAT'S ALL I HAVE TO SAY. TODD COMES TO ME. SO THEN THERE'S BEEN A LOT HAPPENING FOR, UH, IT SPECIFICALLY IN WINTER SPORTS LATELY, AND I'VE HAD SEVERAL CONVERSATIONS WITH PARENTS REGARDING FUNDING AND BOOSTER CLUBS AND ALL THE ALIKE AND ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE ON OUR RADAR. DR TURNER'S AND THOSE INVOLVED IS THAT WE ARE DOING EVERYTHING WE CAN TO MAKE SURE THAT ALL STUDENTS CAN PARTICIPATE AND THAT WE HAVE PROPER EQUIPMENT. AND THAT WERE OUR FACILITIES ARE KEPT UP. WITH THE FUNDS THAT WE HAVE AS A DISTRICT AND THEY'RE NOT HAVING TO REACH INTO THE POCKETS OF PARENTS AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.

SOME OF THE THINGS SPECIFICALLY WE TALKED ABOUT WITH IN REGARDS TO TENNIS. WE'VE TALKED ABOUT SOME BASKETBALL ISSUES. FOOTBALL IS A BIG ONE THAT ALWAYS COMES UP AS FAR AS FEES. BASEBALL SPECIES SEEM TO BE HIGH. THERE'S JUST A LOT OF THINGS IN THAT AREA THAT I THINK NEED TO BE LOOKED AT, LOOKED INTO. AND, UM, WE NEED TO AS A DISTRICT DO THINGS THAT WE HAVE EVERYTHING THAT WE CAN TO MAKE SURE WE SUPPORT THOSE SPORTS BECAUSE I ALSO ECHO WHAT DR TURNER SAID ABOUT THIS POTENTIAL BAN OF TACKLE FOOTBALL. UM IN THAT SPORTS IS A WAY THAT A LOT OF KIDS ACTUALLY DO ENGAGE IN SCHOOL. BECAUSE IT'S A MOTIVATOR , AND IT'S A POTENTIAL WAY FOR THEM TO GET FURTHER IN THEIR EDUCATION. AND IF THERE IS ONE LESS SPORT EVENTUALLY THAT IS NOT AVAILABLE TO STUDENTS THAT THEY MAY THRIVE IN. THAT IS A POTENTIAL BIG PROBLEMS, SO I ECHO THE SENTIMENTS ABOUT THAT BEING A PROBLEM AND THEN IN ADDITION TO THIS IS STILL SPORTS RELATED. THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF TALK, AND I'VE HAD A LOT OF QUESTIONS ABOUT THE LIMITATIONS ON FUNDRAISING ACTIVITIES FOR BOOSTERS. I THINK WE NEED SOME CLARITY. I THINK WE NEED SOME SOMEBODY TO, UM, GIVE SOME FEEDBACK TO THE BOOSTER CLUBS ABOUT SOME MORE SPECIFICS, BUT I'VE HEARD A LOT OF THINGS BACK AND FORTH THAT I, UM I JUST THINK IT IS NOT CLEAR ABOUT HOW BOOSTER CLUBS ARE ALLOWED TO OPERATE. AND IF THERE ARE CERTAIN THINGS THAT THEY SHOULD OR SHOULDN'T DO, WHAT ARE THE THINGS THAT WE CAN, UM, THAT THEY CAN'T FACILITATE AND WHAT'S THE BEST WAY TO DO THAT? SO I WOULD LOVE TO SEE US GIVE SOME WHETHER IT'S A TRAINING OR A BOOT CAMP. FOR THE BOOSTER CLUB TREASURERS FOR PRESIDENTS TO HAVE MORE INFORMATION SO THAT EVERYBODY KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT CAN BE DONE AND HOW THEY CAN HELP THEIR STUDENTS AND EVERYBODY INVOLVED IN THOSE SPORTS. TO BE ABLE TO EXCEL THE BEST THEY CAN. AND THEN LASTLY, UM I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO TOUR THE PRINT SHOP. I DON'T KNOW IF ANY OF YOU EVER BEEN TO THE PRINT SHOP.

IT'S ACTUALLY JUST DOWN THE HALL THERE IN THE FROM THE BOARDROOM, AND I MET ROBERT AND HE GAVE ME A TOUR OF WHAT I ACTUALLY THINK IS A PRETTY COOL OPPORTUNITY THAT WE HAVE IN OUR DISTRICT THAT IS NOT AVAILABLE. AT MOST DISTRICTS. WE I MEAN, THE THINGS THAT WE CAN PRINT. IT'S NOT JUST PRINTING FLYERS. THEY CAN THEY PRINT BANNERS FOR THE FOR THE ATHLETICS FOR ANY OF THE SCHOOL ACTIVITIES FOR ANYTHING INVOLVED THAT YOU HAVE TO BE BIG. FORMAT PRINTING. THEY COULD DO THAT THEY HAVE AN ENGRAVER. THEY HAVE THEY HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY IN IN MANY DIFFERENT CATEGORIES, UM, TO FACILITATE THINGS FOR PROGRAMS IN THE DISTRICT. FOR OUR SCHOOL SITES SPECIFICALLY, AND THEN I'D LIKE TO SUGGEST THAT WE TAKE ONE STEP FURTHER AND WE POTENTIALLY INTEGRATE THIS INTO OUR CTE PROGRAMS. THERE ARE I MEAN, SPECIFICALLY AT YOUR BELINDA. WE HAVE THE BUSINESS PROGRAM, AND THERE'S ALL KINDS OF THINGS THAT COULD BE INTEGRATED WITH. EITHER LEARNING HOW TO RUN PRINT. THERE'S SO MANY DIFFERENT PRODUCTS THAT COULD BE UTILIZED.

THERE ARE NO SOME OF THEM ARE BUT I'D LIKE TO SEE MAYBE SOME MORE ACTIVITY THERE. AND THEN THE OTHER SIDE OF THAT IS THE DIGITAL DESIGN WAS TALKING WITH ROBERT THERE ABOUT MHM, UM ALL

[01:35:02]

OF THE THINGS THAT THEY DO DESIGN TO BE PRINTED, AND THAT IS A SKILL THAT WE HAVE A DIGITAL DESIGN. AH! PROGRAM AT ELDORADO, AND THEN I THINK THERE'S ALSO OTHER DIGITAL DESIGNS THAT OTHER CAMPUSES AS WELL. THAT'S AN OPPORTUNITY TO GET STUDENTS INVOLVED AND SEE POTENTIAL TRADE THAT THEY COULD THEY CAN PARTICIPATE IN AFTER SCHOOL WITH SKILLS THAT THEY HAVE, AND WE HAVE FACILITIES TO DO IT SO I WOULD LOVE JUST TO. THIS IS JUST KIND OF LIKE A UH UM. SOMETHING THAT TO PUT ON THE TOP OF THE LIST WHEN WE'RE THINKING ABOUT INTEGRATING THINGS WITHIN C T AND THEN OTHER WAYS FOR OUR STUDENTS TO GET INVOLVED AND OUR DISTRICT TO BE ABLE TO UTILIZE. I MEAN, IT'S A GREAT FACILITY. THE PRINTERS ARE AWESOME, AND ROBERT'S GREAT, SO THAT'S THAT'S THE END OF MY REPORT. SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THANK YOU, TODD AND HAVE A SAFE FLIGHT HOME. UM SO. I ATTENDED THE CHRISTMAS PROGRAM FOR OUR PRESCHOOL. UM OUR NEW PRESCHOOL WITH DR CHARNESS OVER AT BRIGHTON RANCH. AND, UH, AS YOUR KIDS ARE TEENAGERS AND EVEN OLDER THAN TEENAGERS, SOME OF THEM YOU REALLY LIKE, GET A LITTLE BIT NOSTALGIC. UM, AT THAT AGE. IT'S SUCH A IT'S SUCH A FUN AGE. AND SO WE WERE ABLE TO, UM SEE THEM PERFORM PROBABLY THEIR FIRST CHRISTMAS PROGRAM EVER. BUT NOT ONLY THAT IT WAS THE PARENTS WERE JUST SO EXCITED AND LIKE WHAT THEY KEPT SAYING IS WE'VE BEEN ASKING FOR THIS FOR SO LONG. AND THIS IS WHAT WE'VE WANTED. WE WANTED TO PRESCHOOL IN OUR COMMUNITY. SO I REALLY THANK YOU FOR YOUR VISION, DOCTOR TURNESS AND OUR WHOLE TEAM HERE, UM, AND MAKING THAT HAPPEN ALL AROUND OUR SCHOOL DISTRICT. I ALSO ATTENDED . I WENT AND DID A WALKTHROUGH AT WOODSBORO WHERE I WAS ABLE TO FIND, UM WALK THROUGH THE SCHOOL , BUT NOT ONLY THAT I WAS ABLE TO SEE MORE CHRISTMAS PROGRAMS AND JUST A REALLY, REALLY FUN TIME. AND I'M KIND OF A GIRL THAT LOVES CHRISTMAS. SO I WAS LIKE IN MY ELEMENT. I'VE ATTENDED, UM, THE YORBA LINDA HIGH SCHOOL AND ELDORADO OR I'M SORRY ESPERANZA HIGH SCHOOL WRESTLING TOURNAMENT THE OTHER NIGHT. AH I'VE ATTENDED A FEW, UM ESPERANZA HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL GAMES. AND I'VE ALSO, UM, REALLY BEEN UTILIZING THIS APP THAT YOU CAN SEE ALL OF THESE SPORTS GAMES. IF YOU GUYS DON'T HAVE THE 1199 A MONTH, BUT EVERY DAY YOU CAN SCROLL THROUGH AND SOMEBODY'S PLAYING FROM ONE OF OUR HIGH SCHOOLS, AND YOU ONLY GOT TO DO IS JUST CLICKING. AND IF YOU'RE SOMEBODY WHO HAS TO DRIVE A KID TO USE ER FOR WATER POLO, AND YOU HAVE TWO HOURS TO KILL IN THE CAR, SO YOU CAN KIND OF WATCH OUR KIDS IN THEIR SPORTING EVENTS IN OUR STUDENTS. AND SO THAT'S BEEN A REALLY COOL APP. UM THAT I'VE BEEN UTILIZING WATCHING A LOT OF SPORTS ON THERE. UM I ALSO SAT IN ON THESE SUPERINTENDENT SPECIAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE AND, UM, READ TOPIA WAS MENTIONED, AND THAT IS A HOT, HOT COMMODITY AND LIKE THEY'RE ASKING FOR I MEAN, IF HOWEVER, DID RE TOPIA LIKE I SHOULD HAVE BOUGHT STOCK FROM THE WAY THAT THE PARENTS WERE TALKING ABOUT IT. I MEAN, IT'S VERY, VERY INNOVATIVE, AND IT'S VERY AND I MEAN, IT'S JUST POPULAR THING. SO THAT WAS GOOD TO HEAR, AND I WAS JUST REALLY HAPPY TO HEAR. HOW FAR WE'VE COME IN SPECIAL EDUCATION. AND SO I REALLY WANT TO THANK YOU, RENEE. ANOTHER THING AS WELL. I KEEP HEARING THIS KIND OF CAME TO ME DURING THIS MEETING WHERE WE ARE HEARING A LOT OF THINGS OF, UM LIKE ISSUES WHERE PEOPLE COME UP AND SAY, YOU KNOW, OUR KIDS ARE BEING TAUGHT THIS. OUR KIDS AREN'T BEING TAUGHT THAT OR YOU'RE NOT HEARING ABOUT WORLD WAR TWO OR CIVIL RIGHTS OR ANY OF THIS STUFF, AND SO I KNOW WE HAVE PACING GUIDES OR IF WE DON'T NECESSARILY HAVE ALL THE PACING GUIDES YET. IS THERE ANY WAY TO MAKE OUR CURRICULUM AVAILABLE TO PUBLIC AS TO LIKE WHAT? WE'RE LEARNING IN HIGH SCHOOL. SO UM OR YOU KNOW A LIST. YOU CAN GO DOWN THE LIST, AND YOU CAN SAY OKAY, INTEND TO GRADE YOU'VE LEARNED ABOUT THIS.

THIS THIS THIS AND THAT, SO I THINK THAT WOULD KIND OF DISPEL. UM SOME OF THESE RUMORS ARE THESE MYTHS ABOUT WHAT'S ACTUALLY GOING ON OUR SCHOOL AND WHAT THE KIDS ARE LEARNING. AND SO I THINK THAT THAT COULD BE HELPFUL. IT CAN BE VERY TRANSPARENT. THIS IS WHAT THEY'RE LEARNING. THIS IS WHAT WE'RE DOING HERE. SO WE CAN'T HAVE, UM I THINK A LOT OF RUMORS AND JUST DISMISS INFORMATION THAT KIND OF GOES ON. AND SO I WAS JUST CURIOUS IF THAT COULD BE AVAILABLE, ESPECIALLY TO OUR PARENTS. UM YOU KNOW, THEY'RE AT HOME WHO SOMETIMES JUST LIKE THEY, YOU KNOW. YOU KNOW YOU'RE IN GOVERNMENT THIS YEAR. OKAY WELL, WHAT ARE YOU LEARNING ABOUT IN THIS CLASS? OR YOU'RE IN YOUR HISTORY CLASS WORLD HISTORY. WHAT DO YOU GUYS WILL BE STUDYING ABOUT THIS? UM JUST KIND OF LIKE A LITTLE GUIDE THAT SAYS WHAT WE'RE LEARNING. SO UM, THERE REALLY ISN'T ANY MISINFORMATION ABOUT WHAT IS BEING TAUGHT AND WHAT IS NOT BEING TAUGHT. AND THEN FINALLY, UM ABOUT THE A B 734. I AM STANDING. YOU KNOW, TODD, I KNOW SEAN DOCTOR TURNESS. UM. I YOU KNOW, I'VE HAD TWO KIDS WHO PLAY TACKLE FOOTBALL, AND I JUST THINK IT WOULD BE AN ABSOLUTE TRAVESTY FOR THE STATE TO GET RID OF THIS, ESPECIALLY WHEN WE

[01:40:01]

LOOK AT ALL OF THESE OTHER SPORTS THAT YOU KNOW BASKETBALL. WE'RE HAVING CONCUSSION ISSUES.

I DON'T KNOW WHY WE'RE TARGETING TACKLE FOOTBALL AND ESPECIALLY TO I BELIEVE THIS IS ABSOLUTELY PARENTAL RIGHTS. NOT A PRIME RICE BUT JUST PARENTS ISSUE BECAUSE ME LIKE. ME AS A PARENT.

I KNEW IF ONE OF MY KIDS WAS READY FOR FLAG IF THEY WERE READY FOR TACKLE. I KNOW A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE SAID THE SAME THING AND WE'VE COME SO FAR IN OUR SPORTS AS FAR AS CONCUSSION PROTOCOLS. AND ALL KINDS OF, UM WE'RE JUST SO MUCH MORE ADVANCED . AND SO I'M SITTING HERE GOING WELL, WHY NOW, AND I AGREE. I THINK IT'S GOVERNMENT OVERREACH, AND I THINK IT'S ABOUT, UM, YOU KNOW, TAKING MORE DECISIONS AWAY FROM THE PARENTS AND LIKE LEAVING IT FROM THE STATE. SO EARLIER TODAY, WHEN WE HEARD THAT IT COULD GO TO THE FLOOR AS WE THOUGHT, MAYBE TODAY OR THIS WEEK. UM I ASKED DR CHARNESS, IF WE CAN SEND A LETTER UP TO SACRAMENTO. OPPOSING A B 734, ESPECIALLY WITH, UM. IT'S ALMOST LIKE AN EQUITY ISSUE AS WELL, LIKE IF THE ENTIRE UNITED STATES EXCEPT CALIFORNIA IS ABLE TO GO PLAY TACKLE FOOTBALL. WELL OUR KIDS ARE GOING TO LOSE OUT ON A LOT OF THESE YEARS AND SO ARE WE ARE CALIFORNIA STATE SCHOOLS ARE UCS? ARE WE GOING TO START PULLING FROM ALL THESE OTHER STATES BECAUSE THEY'VE BEEN IN THE GAME A LONG TIME AND THERE LONGER AND THEIR SKILL LEVEL IS BETTER. I THINK THAT THERE'S SO MANY THINGS WRONG WITH THIS. AND SO UM, WE SENT A LETTER UP TO SACRAMENTO AND JUST SIGN MYSELF AND HIM OPPOSING IT. BUT THEN I'D ALSO LIKE TO ENCOURAGE SCHOOL BOARDS. ACROSS THE STATE CITY COUNCILS ACROSS THE STATE.

UM I LIKE TO ENCOURAGE EVERYBODY TO START REACHING OUT TO YOUR ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES, ELECTED OFFICIALS AND TO TAKE A STAND AGAINST THIS AND TO STAND UP FOR KIDS. ESPECIALLY FOR A GAME.

THAT'S WILDLY POPULAR. UM. AND I MEAN, I JUST DON'T SEE LIKE WHY NOW AND THEN ALSO TO WE HAVE TO ASK WHAT IS NEXT? BECAUSE THERE ARE SO MANY OTHER SPORTS LIKE WE'RE SAYING THERE'S NO PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT. HOW MANY BASKETBALL PLAYERS WHO AREN'T CONCUSSION PROTOCOLS. WE HAVE SOCCER PLAYERS ON CONCUSSION PROBE WE HAVE WRESTLERS. WE HAVE ALL KINDS OF THIS. SO WHY FOOTBALL? WHY NOW? AND SO I AM AGAINST IT. UM AND I WOULD LIKE TO ADVOCATE AGAINST THIS BAN AND, UM I WOULD LIKE TO ENCOURAGE EVERYONE WHO IS AGAINST IT TO MAKE THE PHONE CALLS BUT ALSO TO THE CITY COUNCIL AND YOUR ELECTED OFFICIALS. THEY SHOULD BE. THEY SHOULD BE SPEAKING OUT AGAINST THIS BECAUSE THIS IS FOOTBALL LIKE I MEAN FOOTBALL IS COMMUNITY. HOW MANY? HOW MANY? HOW MANY FOOTBALL GAMES, YOU KNOW? DOES EVERYBODY GO TO AND THAT'S WHERE YOU MEET PEOPLE ON FRIDAY NIGHT, AND THAT'S WHERE YOU KNOW YOU HAVE THE CHEERLEADING. I MEAN, IT IS ABOUT COMMUNITY AND I WOULD HATE TO SEE SOMETHING THAT UNITES COMMUNITIES SUCH AS FOOTBALL TAKEN AWAY. AND SO THAT IS THE END OF MY BOARD REPORT. ALRIGHT, SO IT IS. 1947 ALSO KNOW 747. PM AND. AH IT'S TIME FOR A GERMAN TRUSTEE. ANDERSON HAS ASKED TO ADJOURN THE MEETING AND MEMORY OF DEBBIE NAVAL TO GO AHEAD. SO TONIGHT, I WOULD LIKE TO, UM THAT WE'D LIKE TO ADJOURN THIS MEETING IN MEMORY OF DAVID DEBIAN ABLE, WHO PASSED AWAY ON MONDAY, DECEMBER 18TH 2023 DEBBIE WAS A SPECIAL EDUCATIONAL AID TO AND A VALUE MEMBER OF THE P Y EL USD FAMILY FOR 22 YEARS, SHE WILL BE GREATLY MISSED BY OUR DISTRICT AND OUR COMMUNITY.
