Grover foot all the pointing out many things on the purchase orders because when I look at some of those items on the purchase orders that I've been saying things about it for you know almost 2 years there's a lot of excessive spending in the purchase orders and when I was in LA I was on the School site Council we would talk about need to have a nice to have a cold City they have a lot of nice to have in the budget and when you're facing a constraint of and deficit spending of over $1000000 it's time to become much more fiscally responsible and I would like to see the the district kind of tighten up and it's a spending and also I'd like to say as I refer to last time I really think it's time to right-size the district as I said we have about a thousand students who clearly don't live the district and they say they live in the district and that's costing us money that's causing overcrowding that's causing a wear and tear on the facilities all those things that sat costing people on the field trip what's everything you can think about those are individuals that our tax money is not covering so and then of course there's the measure k money but I'll come back to that later so that's all I have to say tonight thank you our next speaker is Miss Stuckey good evening I must say thank you to board Frank Herrera for taking the time to address each of the agenda item with questions and knowledge that are required to help run a school district thank you for stopping to listen to our concerns as parents and it's disappointing to not see every boy remember doing the same listen to the staff listen to the parents and please listen to the citizens it's disappointing to see the president of the board actually not only attacking another board member but persistently parents you actually speak up it's obvious there doesn't want to be a need to come to the table and addressed issues Miss Kent you have basically put down your community and staff who voted for you to push the agenda of newerth I must remind you you are a school board member for ccusd We Are people you are supposed to be working for not for us identity we are paying for continued burning your Bridges and I will make sure I will personally be on the front lines for finding new board members who actually give a  about their Community mr. Tran start of the new school year I hope things will change what are you going to do about all the times you have answered I'll have to get back to you and look more into that I love for you to review all the old meeting members meeting minutes are videos and go back to each and every time you said that please come back to us parents and board members with responses to all the questions we have asked you over the last two years you're getting paid a large amount of money to not know answers regarding this District on a regular basis please address it please start attention please care for all your constituents here in the district appreciate it thank you we start with the resume I'm sorry I just realized I'm not screen sharing right now but miss Stuckey was under the three minutes anyway so that's okay I'll miss Sanders this next I'm I will say ditto to book Carolyn and the other Melissa I am continually disturbed by the fact that we have a superintendent who is made some incredibly Mass Financial like situation said I mean well over a million dollars and he has yet to be me know even addressed as that's his problem that there's been no no semblance that you know he's not done a good job financially he doesn't do a good job I can't actually think of anything he's done well to be perfectly honest I'm really concerned that we have a superintendent you're sick employee who repeatedly comes unprepared doesn't know the information for virtually 100% of the questions that are asked he has created over $1000000 in fine most of which could been easily you know not incurred if you just pick up a phone and I know this is a word you're all not family worth it's called communication you would just communicated with laco like you should have we wouldn't be in this mess I'm concerned that there's also a lot of things going on in the district that you say there's no actions taken in closed sessions but people are being hired there are new people in the district that we know about only because we find out other ways because you're certainly not communicating to the community to parents that there are new principals and assistant principals and things like that that's a concern you don't dare it's just an ongoing almost daily new information that we find out that you guys are not taking care of their still no investigation as to how the new Earth people A New Earth lawyer got curse private information of community members that we're never shared to them directly by us there is yet to be an investigation into you know how there's a thousand extra students claiming to be presidents that are not you guys are dropping the ball left and right and it's horrifying I mean you can't even come out and the fact that you guys did an anti-semitic Proclamation with a woman sitting on the dash it was an anti-semite and refuses to apologize I mean there is literally nothing you guys haven't done have accomplished have shown any positive movement towards for this community for our kids for our staff and to watch that DJ every week is exhausting Neuwirth needs to be removed they are violating contracts they don't have certified people for the love of God do what's right and cancel them immediately thank you thank you moving to seven point seven point three moving to CC you the employee groups and we will start with Miss Hammy I'm here good evening President Obama's online members word that are present members of the administration that are present I'm going to ask you to indulge me for a while we had some concerns about several items on the agenda but I'm going to allow a member of partnership and our negotiation team to address the concerns that we had about some contractual issues so I'm going to turn this over to mrs. McBride this evening and she'll be speak money since we have thank you thanks Tammy I'm concerned about the contract for the firm straddling law.com straddling law their website of struggling law. Company buddy that wants to look it up it's the superintendent's action item 12.2 what concerns us about this that over the years we've worked with agencies that have experienced guiding school districts through the process of serving the community determining feasibility and developing strategies for successfully passing a parcel or bond in the past we've had great success with Princeton's tvwbb props in measures. Calm I'm sure not I'm not sure why we're not continuing to work with them or even hearing from both firms in an effort to that their different strengths and weaknesses the difference in these agencies in they offer seems pretty clear on the surface at minimum one the the one that's on the agenda tonight specializes in corporate transactions while the other is recommended by the FDA and specifically focuses on public education propositions and measures additionally when you search through straddling website that  traveling straddling lost law firm's website under Cape through 14 education one of the first items on the drop-down menu and work with housing I think it's important for the I want to know that that the law firm that's on the agenda tonight to be approved to night is special it specializes in Workforce housing the board in the district leadership work overtime trying to convince the public that brick what is not about work with housing however the that continues to be harder to believe and it very much bills like this Law Firm is being hired to further intimidate the public as the district starts to strategize around a bond measure based on staff and Community feedback over the this year we can be fairly certain that a bond No matter how desperately needed will not pass if there is any reference to or allowance for housing I requested in a separate email to mr. Tran in the Labor Management partnership the best contract be pulled from today's agenda for the Paw Bishop to hear the rationale around this election and any concerns with the partners can be addressed before this is presented to the board for a vote I did learn that this is the agency that we worked with for the bond measure but that was ten years ago the bond was in 2014 we are planning on putting this new Bond on the 2024 ballot a lot of changed in 10 years there's a lot of dissension in this community and as you know as you may know over the last several months the labor-management partnership has collectively expressed a desire scrutinize existing contracts to ensure that we are being both thoughtful about how we serve our students and transparent about the district spending I don't have to remind any of you that the vast majority of ccusd staff at Express that they don't support Workforce housing the continued threat of any new capital funds going towards housing instead of school facility the school school facilities for their roads around and Trust we need a bond to pass in order to repair our two small decades-old crumbling infrastructure we cannot sack price for safety security and health of our students and staff any effort to seemingly overtly or covertly push through Workforce housing will do just that we're asking you to use this as an opportunity to collaborate with not only the labor-management partnership also the community budget advisory committee to ensure that this process is efficient and transparent from the outset I weep we've had discussions in the past about the bidding process and I will argue that you're on board policy 3311 which state stop the district shall purchase equipment supplies and services on a competitive bidding basis when it required by law and in accordance with statutory requirements for bidding and bidding procedures in addition formal bids may be required whenever it appears to be in the best interest of the disc to ensure that good value is receive for funds expended specification so it shall be carefully designed and shall describe in detail the quality delivery and service required in pursuing a bond at this time these are my words now pursuing a pond at this when there are record levels of mistrust and dissension in our school Community would absolutely be in the best interest of the district especially considering we got one shot at this and we have to get it right for the sake of our students and our school facilities according to the administrators regular 3311 in this is all on the district's website regarding advertise B the district show seat competitive bid to advertisement for contracts involving an expenditure of $15,000 more for a public project in addition competitive bid Shelby star advertisements for contracts exceeding 50,000 for certain construction or insurance services and if you look at the agenda this contract it looks like it's about $60,000 or sixty thousand plus I also want to take a quick go to help the board better understand your individual privileges when it comes to the agenda and don't worry dr. Kent by sharing this information I am in no way by lady in the brown act your desire to site FTP C laws of a form of intimidation is unnecessary everything I share and have shared is based on Public Information and board policies and bylaws that too often seem to not die the actions of a few of you on this board I want to thank board member Guerrero for requesting nodding heads a few meetings I go to agendize in the sky about new Earth new Earth is moving into the second year and they have failed to provide even a fraction of their contractual agreement this isn't about public opinion anymore the board is not having a discussion about if we are violating students rights a code or even the California Board of hey girl Sciences regulations for counselors and therapists I have not seen or heard of any documentation when they students are meeting one-on-one or in group setting these have all been called out and stuff. The quickly dismissed students had to sit in on the last day of school and wonder if the explosions they were hearing outside were fireworks m-80s or actual unfortunate shot these kids are being traumatized and it feels like this board as a body and a superintendent and the assistant it's really important you all know how to do your job representing the public board member Guerrero didn't actually get to nodding heads but he doesn't need them and this is important for the newer board members to understand word by along 93 22 States anymore. submit an item for Portage and at any time before the agenda exposed to such items Shelby referred to the board president who will contact the superintendent and determine the appropriate board meeting for the agenda it's not a matter of if it will be a Jen dies but when like wise any member of the public May request that a matter directly related to school district business like Newark be placed on the agenda for a regularly scheduled meeting of the board subject to the following conditions and  to the public you must put it in writing and submit it to the Super Nintendo the Gathering any supporting documentation and at least five days prior to the legally required public posting of the agenda the superintendent not the board president this is in the in the policy shall be the sole judge of whether advice is not a matter of directly related to of course nothing that is illegally proper subject for consideration closed session will be accepted under this provision I'm again asking board a board member any board member to revisit the decision to agendize a discussion about new Earth and the ways in which you have been place I noticed that these USD might very well be violating students rights as it relates to individual or group counseling and therapy I also want to encourage nor board members to empower Yourself by knowing board by laws including 9300 which says the governing board has the power to establish its own procedures I am of the law that means any of you can request that you revisit how things make it onto the agenda if you want something on the agenda please direct the superintendent to add it to the event that you don't need permission from the board president nor 393 Nottingham that's simply a courtesy I'm finally I'm just reiterating please. Went to for the contract for the bonds and advertising RFP to ensure that we have the best chance of passing a bond and please agendize a discussion about 1.5 million what allows. the next school year with more councillors and staff would have a direct impact on our students and once again I want to think that he had me for allowing me this opportunity I would like to welcome our labor partner mr. long and I also want to remind or labor Partners this is a time to talk about your members and what your members are needed and to report what your members need and that you can always provide public comment on items on the agenda at 7.5 and you can also provide public comment on item 7 point getting the number 7.2 on items not on the agenda we have placed them close together so that there isn't a long wait between providing comments on items on the agenda and items not on the agenda but I really encourage our employee groups to please focus on these reports on what your members and I miss McBride I really appreciate your comments it's just a reminder of the areas where these public comments can happen thank you, so look for some was just open this up by you are making a huge assumption that we are not speaking in the entrance of our members and I actually find that quite insulting I'm the president of my local I was the elected president of my local I don't need to be told by the board president what I can and can't say at these meetings I just want to make that very clear when I speak I speak on behalf of the 400 members I represent it is my prayer to put the items I feel that are important to my members in this time can I can I clarify it cuz I think that the conversation was misunderstood there there were specific item on the agenda that I was saying that that can be spoken to at 7.6 or I'm sorry for saying unfortunately and I'm going to also address that item that there are also times when as part of the labor-management partnership we are quite shocked that items pop up on the agenda without that and I'm not going to be limited what does 3 minutes comment during 7.6 remembers things that matter to my numbers I don't want to have this back and forth this is not the time and agree and I was actually ready to start my report on something else until your comment was made ahead and begin my report at this time I like the first open up for long so long can you please I apologize I see Miss Hammond her hand raised and I would like to ask our labor Partners if we can have a conversation to discuss this misunderstanding that just happened I'm with that and I like to again welcome are your members reports and in no and and no I did not have any intention to say what Miss McBride was saying was not a members report that's not what I said I was clearly clarifying that there's other ways to talk about items on the agenda and Adam's not on the agenda Miss hammy at this time is that okay if we if your comment is done it to resolve this misinformation at another time yes that's thank you thank you so much I appreciate that mr. long please move forward with your members report and again at I believe it's important for you to provide your members report everything I'm providing here is something that I feel is important to my member so I'm going to open up first with I hate after the 16th step open up at this but it is first on my list I just want to take an opportunity to discuss the loss of longtime Culver City High School teacher mr. Howard Zager Sinister Zager was a teacher and English teacher at the high school from 1972 until 2010 after leaving the high school he actually wanted some more and he came back as a sub immediately after and is actually slept all the way through this year Howard was a treasure to the district got to know Howard really well he was my downstairs neighbor for my first few years with the district and I just found Howard to be someone who just genuinely cared I can't. I just saw the outpouring of comments from both former students and teachers and community members when we did post this information on our social media but I just wanted to really just take this time to remember how it and I'm sorry I didn't make this request earlier in the cenozoic totally slipped my mind if we could perhaps a closed meeting and Mr zegers memories tonight that way wonderful I'd also like to give a welcome cuz I saw it on his court report to doctor Drake will be coming in as the new CDL very excited to work with him and Doctor William so I know will be Middle School principal who is on the last agenda as well I want to say that for both Doctor Williams and also for Doctor Thomas at the high school they have been very very open to meeting with the unions just want to say I really appreciate that on dr. Thomas already I'm going to start a little earlier has already met with myself in the Tammy and several of our site reps to discuss issues at Culver City High School, we're looking forward to a meeting with doctor Williams tomorrow with myself in the Tammy and a various site reps as well from the middle school so thank you to Doctor Williams and thank you to dr. Thomas for taking that time out how to speak to the unions and make sure our concerns at that site level speaking of which and you know with Dr Drake I'm not sure if he's on tonight but we are still having issues with late today I've received yet another email today about another teacher who is not paid generally teachers are frustrated because they are not getting a response back from the district that they are frustrated because they're getting the response back that doesn't show much compassion offer Snapple today a teacher I was concerned that they didn't have something it was said that a PO was put in with the wrong name although I do miss hammy with the secretary at the site and says that's not true but I don't think a person wants to hear an excuse for why they didn't get paid I want to get they want to hear when they're going to get paid this is happening all too often and it continues to happen even in these summer months it's now the middle of July and we have people who are not paid from during the school year I I just I just I can't fathom why this problem can't be fixed why I have to keep saying this this is something that needs to be discussed with board members and the superintendent about why this is continuing to happen that leaves us also to me ensure that we get our 80% increase on time so I don't know where we are in that procedure right now there is at the increases went into effect on July 1st that means that any employee who were this summer should be getting there in 8% increase I'm on the August 5th check and I think it might be August 10th for classified this is this this is insane to me this is never and we have late negotiation many times in this District I've never seen it where we did not get our pay on time and yes I understand there is retroactive pay retroactive pay you're going to take a bigger wasp because you're going to get a higher tax amount taken out and your net income which is all that matters to people is going to be much smaller and we're also going to Pursuit looking into out late interest pay because if we don't get this time we feel we're entitled to lay interest pay which is going to be another cost incurred to the district I want to comment on what Miss McBride and also said about this consulting firm for the bow pretty surprised in NY I think this is important to our members this didn't go to the labor-management partnership I think that's why I was surprised you know if we're going to hire some kind of a firm to guide us through the bond process I would hope that it would be brought to the Labor Max in Partnership and would also be brought to see back before it would wind up on a board report I can't begin to spray how frustrating it is to myself to Ace the all remembers that this constantly happens things pop up on Border ports and people ask me about at the email that me about it and my answer is I don't know and that shouldn't be my answer I I have this information to provide to my members why we're going with the sperm people are asking why the sperm why are there multiple b y haven't multiple bids been presented to the partnership or to see or to the board why is this such a rush a Mike Miss McBride said this is really important trust is at an all-time low between the board district office the staff and the community and to get a bond measure passed it takes a village you need everyone on board with that and that's going to be very very difficult with this lack of trust that we see right now this is why these things need to come through labor-management partnership this is why these things need to come through see back because that's going to check off to important boxes there it's going to check off the later end of it and the concerns from arm Bruce is also going to check off the community concerns as well too on the sub cost many members have been emailing me as well about conferences it seems like we have more and more conferences District Personnel are going to add a large cost or curious would you like to get a report and Partnership of what these conferences are costing us and who's attending this conference outside continue to be an issue we are Contracting out AIDS and still some security and counseling services through New Earth Eckhart Leon edjoin there is one mental health counselor position Chris Council position posted on newer on Ahmed join there are no instructional aides right now posted on edjoin and there are no regular special instructional aides posted on there is one of these the two a which is the more special why Zayn and like I said work mid-july and then we're going to get in this situation where we don't have employees in the fall and we have to pay outside contractors once again A New Earth which everyone knows has been a concern who are members of our members have come and spoke about this numerous times numerous times I know some people think of the Union putting them up to this and that people are speaking very really about their concerns with newer mr. Guerrero clearly asked for that item to be a Jen dies it has not been a dentist so we're wondering when is a discussion on the new Earth contract going to be identified that needs to be a gen. talk about it amongst labor leaders and in the members of the board and superintendent that's all fine and I welcome those conversations and more information but we still need to get something on the agenda for the staff to hear for the community here our next board meeting one concerned that I'm getting out of the Farragut staff right now is Farragut right now is without a principle to my knowledge I believe there is a cat if they're ready to move forward on but we can't start a principal at Farragut until they've been board approved I'm concerned that we might not have another board meeting until sometime in August we really need and the staff really need a principal at Farragut as soon as possible it is a lot of work for the staff I'm sure it's a lot of work for the assistant principal Miss Jeffries and if we have somebody ready to go let's get this board approved that's going to be a special meeting and take care of this because Farragut needs to get a principal in now thank you everyone a nice to conclusion of my report for Sunday thank you mr. long 7.4 sorry labor partner from Max do we have Mr Ted ronchetti and I don't see him on okay I'm going to move the van 27.4 superintendent's report again Eileen by our cabinet and our staff to provide any information you may have on what was said and and you will make amends thank you prisoner Missoula the if I may take a minute to sort of put forth an observation for the public tonight it has been mentioned several times over the last month and a half about students who are not supposed to be in Odessa and there's a number associated with those comments about 1,000 students and tonight in just members from the public also mentioned the differentiated or the differential spending from one District versus the next I wish to say that the students who are with us or our students we do not deliberately behind-the-scene allowing students were not supposed to be part of our district to be part of a district those are kids and we will not be in the position to build a list you go out and search all those who do live here and who's not live here in the context of that is forand Hartwell and I am hoping that the context of the district visions and admission is that already an inclusive Journey we benefit a great deal from as many students as attending of school district I know the the conversation also a toward overcrowding over and you know where in tear duct at the facility the state send us the money for every student that is part of our district now let's see about some reason one of those students decided to leave the district then the associated funding with that 1,000 students will go with them so we can't really balance the budget based on that misunderstanding is that it was sent to snow the way by whatever reason we get to keep the funding that is associated with servicing them those kids are out that I was screens in this District welcomes and support them in any which way we can there's more conversation to be had down the line when we have done with the contract come up with the I'm sure the board will want me to address so I'll take the blue to stop here tonight and I'm Mister alack on depending to share thank you mr. Tran I just wanted to share that we've been very busy and Human Resources doing everything possible to fill vacancies management vacancy certificated vacancies classifieds vacancy Asobi review is regularly remind the principles to continue to hire throughout the summer and we just want to wish everyone a great summer and we're also planning for the beginning of the school year mr. Larkin do we have any reports on the 8% check with my stuff around Missoula and I believe that what we're doing what we're doing is waiting for the 8% to kick in so that we could meet by posting down and now we're putting back up with the 8% to hopefully attract more candidates no the race that all our staff are getting and do we have any movement on that so I did speak with both mr. Contreras and mr. Kearney today and we're going to be getting a communication out for summer on mr. longest correct and that the 8% will be included for those who work or working in the summer so that will be in their August paycheck as far as the retroactive pay we're looking at September 4th at do we have any of your other cabinet members I would ask the board to excuse the doctor Smith and dr. Baxter they are both unavailable to attend the board tonight so I think that this room is on her video it says Jennifer Smith and all we see is her room so she's somewhere okay well I'm going to move us to 7.5 members of the audience items on the agenda if dr.

Elsa shenmen Joanna and why are why so those are the ones down zoom and we can commence in person please thank you so much and I'll give you the 3 minutes but I'll give you the one minute warning thank you that helped a lot of good evening board members I want to speak on item 12.2 I'd already prepared my remarks on that and the reason is against the upcoming board on measure that she was going to quit 2024 on the 2024 ballot and I looked on my property tax and in 2014 the there was a bond for 106 million dollars what property tax I get charged $200 per year for that I know a lot of community members pay a lot more because their properties are worth more I bought my property long time ago and that $200 I'm going to be charged that until 2038 my checked so it's like my neighbors paying 302-2038 measure K that's $189 so and that money's being wasted sold out means I'm paying $400 a year for school related things right out of my pocket and I don't think Robert Frost was 48 million dollars almost half the budget was spent on that but only where did the math if we have a new Bond then let's say it's five hundred million dollars my my property taxes going to go up by at least $500 a year my neighbors could be more like $1,000 a year if it's a 900 million I've heard a 1 billion Bond my property tax to go up by at least $1,000 I'm a senior fixed-income 7000 seniors in Culver City many of whom are Property Owners you're not going to be really thrilled about like I said I've lived here since 86 so my bass is low would have to be thrilled about 1,000 colors on our property tax bill that's huge and I know members here in the room or Property Owners you have to have the the same thing so and you know all the all the parents in this community am I blocked there's five families or families have their kids in private schools are there about to put them in private schools so they're not really thrilled with paying $1,000 or $15 or whatever it is more in property taxes so I think we're really comes down to the dollars-and-cents it's true that the public trust has been broken for sure but why would we trust you to spend our money wisely you haven't spent the measure k money wisely not at all the Robert Frost that was half the double the cost it was supposed to be it was and then now how can I afford $1,000 a year that's like asking too much that's a bridge too far thank you okay Mr Levinson yes hello there first of all I want to let for president Amezola know that I have not forgotten your request Norma ignoring it tough for me to reach out to this fellow the elect officers about their input on the outs that process is just tough over the summer reaching everybody but I will get you that information I appreciate you asking about that number who is just a question if somebody can at some point to provide an answer to it it be it be great this have to do with item number 9.3 to purchase orders I was very pleased actually to see there is $20,000 or State Department of Justice for fingerprint services and I'm just curious is that for the providing of fingerprint services for the volunteers declared volunteers the clearance process or is that for employees or both at $32 a piece that be about 625 of them so I hope that's great news that we are going to be providing those Services if somebody could let me know that be great next is a course one of my passions I see it back on there again 51-42 AR item number 10.3 thank you very much for including the defibulators the CDs for the athletic fields that could the amount to saving lives as and your inclusion of the active shooter training thank you and I see we have a clarification in there now that it does not include students in there which is wonderful it shouldn't this is just for the features and play adult playground supervisors although just to be clear we we still want to have the drills just like fire drills are earthquakes real so we do want to have those for the kids and then I just wanted to let your folks know some typos I'm there I can do that however you want to do it but it changes the substance of it on 51-42 they're all things like they're all labeled page two and you've got sentences that are split with in the middle of it that makes it kind of nonsensical I did I didn't know who to send it to I did email those to the superintendent earlier hopefully those will be forwarded to someone for cleanup and next would be on the again another type of wave that sub substance on the certified board report and Declassified board reports for Farragut on the PD is you've got the year strong on there and they want to clean that up. August 18th of 23 23 + I mean 24 on that so both of those should be cleaned up on the certified board report and they classified board report that is it the last thing is I would Echo the sentiment that we had Farragut would love to hear who our new principal is sooner rather than later so thank you and I will yield my last one second Chucky when you change the way the public or Community can speak you decided not to hear us this a Missoula you can tell anyone to speak on the agenda items at this time but you aren't listening we don't necessarily have the time any longer can't speak on each individual item separately 9.3 purchase orders superintendent office $10,000 plus another lines for a dollar so it's Haitian of ccusd in the Labor Management spend $10,000 for so you guys could get along not sure what that's all about what's going on with the million dollars we potentially owe the state for missing three days I don't see that anywhere on the purchase orders 9.9 who is Jack rehder & Associates and are they related to Brookwood does this money come from that plans funding all the seems like a shady deal gone wrong with no explanation of anything besides what we heard some talk about tonight anyway. wait to note that the high school enrollment dropped from 20110 to 2052 but yet we don't have an enrollment dropping right that was said by Robert Quinn 16.2 regarding the need for fully qualified individuals are you still having trouble finding these teachers if so why is it because you're not paying enough are you willing to let students education potentially be some part lost because you're not having to find Floyd Pulse individuals this all seems difficult understand thank you Miss Sanders okay we'll start at the top I'm so I think it's time for you guys to actually allow people to see time so you might want to change your bylaws purchase orders a bunch of things there there's over $13,000 of undocumented charges under superintendent's office I can't even imagine what that would be at this point so would love to know those but I know I have to make an appointment and then rifle through boxes because apparently you guys don't scan anything I really would like to be there when your Auditors show up 9.9 developer justification study I don't know what this will entail but it's probably some BS useless excess waste of money as usual if you guys want to add in for developers to paint Rafi to the district when they want to develop something I'm all for it please make them pay through the nose we don't need to waste money on a study in order to find out if that's a good idea so please don't waste more money that we don't have the Willy quarterly reports on 412 technically we don't have to file one if we've emailed any complaints so all those quarters that you claimed that nothing was wrong there were things wrong so you might want to like revisit the whole fun thing I would love to see. I'm literally 9.13 to see if it's worth continuing for the elementary schools by enrollment report you guys have to figure this out they are signing documents illegal to lie on your defrauding things I mean wow you guys have to figure that out Ron and everyone else is great on the safety so I'll let them handle that I would love to see resumes on the Sioux tentative Business Services contract to make sure that there's an actual accounting and CPA background and all that other fun stuff please don't even bother with a bond at this point I'm not even voting for one if it's going to cost us thousands of dollars a year turn off property because I don't trust you with any amount of money. So just off the bonds for now cuz you're not going to get one for infrastructure also threatened by you enough about the 14 section to get into it but God I hope it's something positive for once in this District that would be great I don't know if that 16.2 again are we going to be able to actually have school start in August because it looks like we are so short on required licensed Personnel at this point I don't know if we're going to be able to have school so again what is your vacancy rate what is going to be the permit who are certified and licensed Personnel what are you doing about it for the love of God what a my security when nothing seems to have been handled by you guys it's just for fun and you know what we will be adding things to the agenda whether you like it or not gnosis hello can you hear me thank you I just wanted to speak real quickly and 9.4 and 9.5 I don't know which one it was but I saw a listing of extra assignments being given out and I'm just concerned about those given that month after month teachers aren't being paid for past I was really surprised during the HR that there's really no reason in this day and age given all the HR and payroll technology available I'd love it if we could get an update on the back pay situation to teachers I went teacher I spoke to said that she hasn't been paid since last summer to be fair I haven't spoke to her. So it could have been resolved in that time but given the level to which you can share given confidentiality concerns unemployment issues I think we really need to understand the teachers are being paid can get into a world of hurt it's going to take one called Department of Labor I'm not sure if they govern Public School Employees but I know in the private sector people would be fired by now this is so unacceptable and just you know we can't say that we appreciate our teachers but cannot see them that's not right so I that we can address that and that some update can you get me to the public to know that it's been taken care of thank you hi there can can you guys hear me yes thank you I wanted to speak about item 10.2 the enrollment question this was just previously dismissed as unimportant but I think as a parent we need to investigate this issue I think it may be contributing to some mental health issues that students have spoken so eloquently about in this form given the negative impact of overcrowding we definitely need to be inclusive as a j dead rabbit given the very large number of students on campus when overcrowding occurs this great the negative atmosphere for all students regardless of where they are from we've got very large class sizes often / 30 the dice are packed into rooms it's hard to for kids to climb into death that are pushed against the wall these large class sizes increases challenges for teachers and that may be an impact in terms of our retention and hiring large class sizes also exacerbate the problem of increase heterogeneity of student preparation after advanced classes are eliminated such as honors English I think overcrowding may also be fueling fighting bullying and violence on campus is difficult for the security officer and staff to control kids when there are so many and the stress caused by crowding me also be feeling some of this and the large number of children also makes hard to regulate students filming and posting these fight on social media I also think that sprouting exacerbates vandalism and puts more stress on the crumbling infrastructure including bathrooms that are dirty and disrepair is reference by Ms McBride earlier my student was not able to get a locker last year because there were simply not enough because there are so many students on campus it's very clear that there's more students at the high school then the infrastructure can handle and finally this may seem like a minor issue but I think for teenagers this is important the lines for lunch and during the nutrition break are very long making it difficult look for kids to buy lunch within the small time allotted the cafeteria is also very crowded and I think that all of these dresses can negatively impact student mental health I really think it's important for us to understanding the store Baxter students and to attempt to Target a class size that Arkansas can reasonably accommodate in order to provide an atmosphere that promotes academic excellence and an atmosphere that is allows us to promote safety in our schools thank you my speakers bright at this time we want to welcome our why right to provide public comment find good evening thank you I wanted to thank for the number of Brian grill for questioning and mentioning the safety concerns I mentioned last time regarding an active shooter training for all students and allowing pain the option to opt-in or opt-out of the training also walkie talkies at the school due to the safety hazards of the phone lines not working and adding in bathroom safety concerns to the policy drug-related issues that are occurring in the bathroom safety concerns regarding the the fire hazards in terms of the fireworks going off in the bathroom not work you up toilets not working the facility is being disrepair I am disappointed that the active shooter training now will only be provided to adults and not the students this is a huge disservice to our students and so Community I find it extremely neglectful there is a difference between an active shooter training and a lockdown drill because why would there be a teacher and staff active shooter training and not one for the children my two sons participated in the high school training with ccpd that was located on the high school campus or an active shooter drill training and it's completely is. the school Community needs to be aware of this and our children are not being accommodated with a proper safety preparedness Miss right I'm sorry I'm trying to get all my notes are to make sure I have everything I think that's it thank you so much okay I'm going to move us to 7.6 members of the board the order that will be following is Aunt Laredo Laredo and good evening thank you I I do want to start by respectfully requesting that all of our community members please allow the board president to act in her stead as meeting facilitator without interruption it is very disconcerting to hear and witness repeated interruptions and I experienced it also is very disrespectful so I'd really like to respectfully request that we this. Behavior I wanted to let folks know that we are planning to and I'll stand corrected if I they can but it's my understanding that we are planning to schedule special meetings as needed for personal needs so I expect that's great we're just looking at the dates okay so I expect that if I hire it's necessary we will be holding a special meeting to do that I wanted to add some comments to the comments already given by the superintendent is that my understanding of per pupil spending within the state of California that are really as well as that it's needs-based so we spend according to federally mandated really and morally mandated needs including that we spend more dollars per student according to needs that might be disability base needs they might be income-based needs in might be English learner needs and so when we compare from District to District it is critic critic I consider these matters and be sure that we're looking from Apple to Apple according to the student body and the demographics and we're Title One funding may be coming from Etc. That's an important factor another important factor that will turn into a request is that I want to Express gratitude to the superintendent for your comments on a CCSD students being part of our family once and forever and I'd also like to request I imagine it won't be a big deal but that our new C Bo maybe right off the bat take their first board report to give a brief primer to the community cuz this won't take seats Westie particular expertise this will just be expertise that they already have from their previous video positions primer to the community on a DA cuz it's it's really critical that everyone understand exactly how our funding works and how dependent it is Center population of students regardless of their home address I will also remind our community that our seniors are exempt from paying bonds and personal taxes and that is of course in recognition of the nature of a fish then come in those cases and then I as a as a Segway from those previous items will refer people to a paper I highly recommend that can be downloaded for free it's called stealing education it's by dr. Latoya Baldwin Clark in one of the take-home messages from this paper is around race class opportunity hoarding where a race class privileged Community sequester's valuable resources to the exclusion of another race class subordinated Community it's very worth your while and I will finally make a request of my colleagues at the CCSD Culver City liaison meeting Christian is scheduled for Thursday I know the agenda has been made public so unfortunately is too late to make a request to get an item on the agenda but I hope that you all will consider discussing in whatever preliminary way is possible. crossing guard situation I wish we had been able to get that on the agenda in advance but it would be really wonderful for the city to consider expanding their current contract with the crossing guard the provider for the crossing guards because we get charged much more when we have a separate contract with that same organization and we do have some data that does seem to you know based on experts but the standard. nationally but we do have some data that rationalizes from expert opinions on the need for crossing guards at the five intersections that we've been paying for them at this past few months so I'd like the liaison committee to entertain a to that. Thank you no to do before I begin I would like to invite superintendent if you have any responses to her if that's okay board president sometimes he would invite superintendent to briefly respond to any of the and if there isn't any right now. I am open to that and also if there is a specific agenda item that maybe you can address it at the agenda item but anything that was in not agendized you can all this I'm open for that right now for the present for the provincial just addressing a small item that was mentioned tonight the context of active shooter training involving students is a larger conversation that would involve contacts of of board perspectives Community perspective and is not something that we can just make on an opera operational-level I do want to say those we are doing everything we can to protect our schools and I'll students in Dania how to do Asian an but some situation required a much more deeper planning than than we I hope to do but we will keep the safety of our students and our facility at the highest priority and more conversation about prepare how soon to to be saving some of the most critical situation we will care that conversation openly forward with the public input and a broader base of boy guidance I just want to make mention to how deep carefully we are considering I'll practices in a safety measure when it come to something that critical such as active shooter training thank you I will start by saying that at this point I'm going to be real brief thank you to my colleagues for holding it down the last regular board meeting when I wasn't able to be here due to covid I'm still getting a uber my call which is why I'm asked today and I will be I don't plan to stay here very late for this my health and I think that everyone under understands that creating a good balance for your health will have longevity in in my leadership here so I thank you for is Blacklist it last board meeting for me I do just want to know so I don't have that much to report on the last time or at least I want I do want to say that as a board member I I have been angry since I've been on the board I've been encouraging superintendent and cabinet to be able to provide us with the with information so that we can give the best direction as possible so that we can do our jobs to the best of their ability of our ability and sometimes and I do hear from our public and from our partner is that things do come as a surprise to them but I also want to say that it's sometimes they come to a surprise to me as well and and that in some cases you're you are not alone and I'm I've been trying to Anchor which are our staff to to share things as soon as possible but this is why you see it revealed in front of you the way that it is on the diet is sometimes too is because myself and my colleagues are asking questions that have not been asked before and you know I asked for your Grace's be moved through this because you won't always siakam piece of board because we want to ask about we want to ask these questions and try to make sense sense of it all so I just wanted to put that out there because there isn't just this whole we we are always or at least I am not always in possession of the information in order to make our best our best direction to give our best direction or to give and make informed decisions sometimes and that's what they're trying to do when we come here in front of the public and this is the first time that I said this and in the public because I've gotten to the point of like just being said that we are getting some of the same information at the same time as at the public and it's it's not great I am I think dr. Kent for where they request and I think for the liaison committee for this Thursday's meeting at the city and I was not involved in the agenda sitting or am I understanding how that agenda is being set by that is definitely something on my mind and it's also something on my mind in terms of starting to attended the safe routes to school meetings which happen on a monthly basis very early in the morning which I I wish I've been in planning on attending and it would be great if we got it if if a superintendent does have an update on that particular we should we will need an update before school starts with that particular issue so because I want a crossing guard needs to be in place by the time so I'm requesting. To be over for us to have an update and as we all know I sit on a diet sometimes and I'm asking for things the agenda is a lot of them are policies are first reads from policies and I did not come on to the board knowing that I needed to change a whole lot of policies but I found that that is a place we have a gap and I have still not seen any of the policies that I've asked for since the beginning of the time here to come for 1st Street and I would love I I can sit here and I will I'm going to have to sit here at some point and sit here or you know in my at my office and start making a list of everyone that I've I've ever asked for in the public and in writing and because some of them are mandated for edcoat and government code and that and some of them are 30 years old and I I've been told that they would come up but they but they happened and as well as data that has been asked for in regards to in regards to issues that we and at the time of those issues were passed off because they either needed to be passed at the time because it was time sensitive or we needed something and we said that we would have more information forthcoming and we haven't gotten that that so here we are at the beginning of a new year and coming in about five weeks and we still haven't had that. Yet so I am going to make that up. There's no soul but there's it's just a fact so I am really looking forward to seeing how and everyone had nose has seen our board draft of our board governing calendar in the past this draft is always come at the end of the meeting and also future agenda items to request have always come to the end of the meeting but because our meetings are so long we've often glossed over those very quickly or we've just drop them in totality and so now I'm going to kind of set things up upside down and bring that forward into my board report from now on because it seems that we never get to that point where where I can dies in new items or making addendum request and and or reminding of how take me to come back especially if for work for a courtesy you know it would be great if we did get nodding heads about point but at 2 in the morning is not great to have gotten has we just want to move on tonight so I am going to make it to practice for 2 to bring that up in earlier in my board report from now on but like I said there's a draft of governance calendar that our board created previously and what does mean no. Just you change it and they evolved the intention was there that we wanted to see certain things and we're just not getting to it and I've said in the past that calendering is a it's an intention of our it's a statement of our values calendaring is and if we can only calendar and within two weeks. Then we're not seeing we're not in visioning our feature the best that we can I really am requesting that this board and his cabinet really intentionally calendar out further out and see how so that things aren't I surprised we're not just putting a meeting on for next week without with out any warning that that's going to be the case don't that is my request if anybody has any other nodding heads in terms of like a calendar and thank you mr. Grey I really am and about bringing back these Papa you know they don't have to come at the same time but we have to have a plan for these mandated policy is because it leaves us at risk for a little bit it really does and it doesn't serve our students or or Partners do is need to come back and thank you I want to start I just thinking mr. Tran and just a long for sharing a little bit about mr. Zager just ran in the Cobra Pride last week, Mr long tonight I didn't have the pleasure of knowing is a girl that my son did spoke very warmly of him and I just want to thank him and and offer my condolences to his family just draw all of his his service to the students in the district, so thank you both for sharing that with us I do want to Echo board member loretto's frustration about delays and calendaring about quest for data or getting incomplete data delays in in best free information we are doing our best to make good decisions for the districts in the students in the employees and we and we have that incomplete data or last-minute data were either forced to delay decisions that are important or make decisions with incomplete data and that's not that's not good practice if you have time now or when you talk about personal things a little bit later I think public might benefit from just a little bit about two things maybe 12:00 which is something that a district has to file with the county whenever there's a bargaining agreement and that has to be approved by the county before that bargaining result in this case that the raises if you can maybe just tell us a little bit about the timer to the public a little bit about the timeline for that with you and then that the second one would be different this time late pay coming up again I don't know about talking about specific cases with you probably can't with you you shouldn't but do you see a trend what what is still happening with this and what are we doing to move forward on that and then if you could clarify my sincere hope is if never acceptable but that we were talking about is issues with and of the extra assignment pay and that we're not talking about anybody's regular salary here but if that's the case I'd appreciate hearing that if you disagree with the president at any time you can always ask a question cabinet but a discussion between the board should not occur so you know then I can't continue and proceed so if you are going to ask about late payments then encourage the rest of the board to not engage in a discussion or follow-up questions because then we can get into that discussion but you're more than welcome and I conclude my comments thank you remember Ciara and president Amezola more than happy to address both of those issues let's begin with the ab-1200 whenever there's an agreement between the union and this kccf TNA's the first step is to develop a b1200d ab-1200 is a document that identifies all of the expenditures that were agreed to and that document is currently being worked on by mr. Kearny it does take a week or two to complete those especially in this environment because we have so many factors going into that document this year once that sent to Lako Lake o has a 10-day turnaround time to get that document back to the desk if there are any corrections that need to be made by Mr Kearney that will take a couple of days to complete those Corrections and then sent back to Lako for final station so we're in the process of completing and sending a b1202 hopefully we'll get that done somewhere right around August 1st and thereafter will be continuing the process currently we're also working on changing the salary schedule all of the documents in the contract that need to include the 8% as well as far as the eye late payments in my two years here I have not seen where Prime job meeting the regular pay has been affected or has been late of the instances that I've seen I have have all been extra pay assignments and every time there's a late pay it almost always comes to my attention as well and so I speak payroll to get the details on that and then I know Mitchell Contreras looks into that he contacts the employee they occur for a variety of reasons there isn't one specific reason sometimes it has to do with the initial timesheets sometimes that has to do with the initial PR sometimes that they're just a variety of reasons why that might occur but the first I think we need to find out is was the I actually paid or not and then find out where the correction needs to be made make that correction and then make the payment if necessary prison Amazon if I could take a moment to add to what Mr alukonis shared the we could do better with communicating immediately back to the emails in the conversation over the phone calls we got from us. We we must do a better job than what we've done so far we would work without stopping to make sure that that is expected and we will support us. Make sure they got the training that the equipment and the flexibility to reach back to our to our teachers and and if anything else it's always better than responding so I'm I'm hearing the prescription sometime it's just because they do teachers and staff are not being responded or not being reach back and for more information and we still have more time or more information to sort out then we will do that at the same keep us informed so we'll pay attention to that as we move forward and we were going to do that regularly thank you thank you I too want to talk a little bit about a jet that I think and I do want to say that whenever a board Amber has asked me to identify something I tried to reply I provide the board by law I asked to please follow it and I even talk about timeline specifically the new Earth situation I know we heard from our labor Partners I have in communication with board member get Idol board member that I do have to admit it in writing the information was submitted to the superintendent we are discussing the appropriate timeline I want the public to know that things are not being ignored the timeline and the education system are very slow I also want to remind the public and remind are bored that we continue to be in the aftermath of the pain systems were completely shattered during the pandemic and that we're putting them back together and that we continue to try to put them back together and to mend them and to try to move out I hear the frustration about a Jen Dysinger items from board member Loretto with regards to policy and we did pass thanks to her initiative and I supported this initiative policy plus which way review more than 700 policies hopefully by the end of this year I also want to mention that we've had an extremely long meeting and that these meetings have particularly had content that is necessary to comply with the education systems that we are in and that there's been very little room to add things to it and to review it a third and a fourth time and for example new Earth as it's a contract has been voted it's a program that's been implemented for a year it can wait a little bit nothing how long because that's not my duty. a duty of the superintendent but I want to say I hear my colleagues of there intention to agendas things and their frustration to agendize thing and I asked for grace and I asked for time because we haven't had the time and we're making strides towards agendas anything I I I think it's really important for us to exeggcute evolve open policy and this is why I thought it was so important for us to do bore policy Plus and I really hope that our cabinet can please bring back that Workshop where we will review 700 policies and really update our policies and this isn't this something that we already voted on and we just need to put it on the books I'm when it's going to happen Okay I want to it's 8:30 does the board need recent yes the let's 8835 do we need 5 or 10 10 10 okay are you looking okay 25835 come back at 8:40 or 8:40 Evansville Indiana I don't know it Clippers roster okay be ready I'll be recording thank you. We are going to continue with 9.1 consent agenda and this is 8:42 the time and I guess I'd like to ask if there's any items I need to be pulled for consent agenda I guess we'll start with tent I have no idea, but I'm acting in the clerk's role and I can report out the number of comments on so I'll just follow your instruction on when I think it would be best to just do it right now okay we had three items on 93 what's a 9.32 comments on 9.41 comment on 9.5 one comment on 9.91 comment on 9.12 and 1, * 9.13 then we'll go to Laredo that I don't I don't like to call 9 9 + 913 okay so should I buy 9 and 9:13 okay can I get a motion for the rest just because can keep track I move to approve 9 2 9 5 6 7 8 I apologize if I'm going to pull 9.2 okay I move to approve 9 5 6 7 8 and 9 11 12 and 13 please I'm so sorry 9 5 6 7 8 and 11 and 12 maybe I wasn't keeping track text Monique I love you I moved to approved items 9567 8 + 11 and 12 thank you I was very unsure I'll second day so I put 9.2 and the only reason I pulled it is because I could not recall some of the statements that were written in the minutes and so I want to make sure that I I vote oh my God I lost the word I apologize abstaining yes thank you abstaining to voting online going to just because I cannot go back to the recording so that was my statement of 9.2 okay I'll move 9.2 then the minute second I'm sorry so there's three of them I'm sorry there's three of us loading only sentence Oh yeah I just want to thank you okay all those in favor say aye all of those extension Missoula 9.3 disorders I'll move to approve it a second I pulled it I'm assuming that you don't have any I have no comment so we need to get back to and I know that we have a outstanding member who will be joining us as assistant superintendent of Business Services pending our approval but we've always before Mr Quinn retired we end and while during since then we've we've tried to ask and say these POS don't have an explanation that the board be the board be given some kind of background and that we're not going through and rooting through it and asking for every single one and every single meet a certain threshold will have a further explanation so you know anything over I I think you said $5,000 would have some kind of explanation necessary that all of them go into like some deep dive. but just having credit card PO on their he's just not it's just not good it's it's not good for a public is not good for us furthermore I'm just going to read this number one from from ar900 5 conference workshops to meeting expenses the board she'll annually allocate a budget for conference expenses registration travel accommodations meal allowance books for each board this might come into this particular a ORS about board members that doesn't mean that that this is some of the same ideas should be also applied to other staff members but this particular one that I found it regarding board members board members shall not have the district charged or Bill directly for expenses authorized conference expenses may be prepaid by the district or reimburse to a board member up to the individual allocation books Shelby District property in available to all board members conferences are Workshop sponsored by c.s. b a r n s p a and meetings of the Los Angeles County School trustees Association do not require board approval can you say t-shirt station all other conferences Shelby related to the education of students in ccusd and require prior approval by the board typically sometimes we do have a board policies. Buck president where we know that we need to change policy but in this in in in those cases we have actually discussed it and said you know this you know where we planned this or whatever but in this particular case and not saying that are confident we shouldn't be going to certain conferences that we are going to I'm saying that this is our policy if our policy isn't meeting our needs we need to change it but until then we need to abide Midas policy and we need to make sure that when these things do arise and whether or not maybe it's last-minute and we need to ratify something but we have not had whatever. Whatever happened to be sold it comes up as a truly agendas item in the future it needs to happen because these policies exist for a reason and we're not just going to throw them to the wind at any time for that reason and because all the reasons that I I just said there are too many things on these POS that we do not have an explanation for and I do not think that we are going to sit here line-by-line and you're going to tell me what each one of those are so afraid that read I do not support passing thank you all right thank you so I have a couple too I was able to get responses from Psalms members on these two they send them in it Advanced the first one I wanted to ask about is on page one it's down at the bottom one 441 there's two items they're both facilitation of ccusd Labor Management with California dedicated to education is the California labor initiative has a $10,000 one there's a $1 one and then I look back and May 27th we also approved 40 $1 so that's a total of $50,001 is there a particular reason why there's a $1 one and then just overall is that the cost $50,000 for work with Ella Mai or are there more cost D. Thank you very much I need to find out what happened to that $1 charge I don't know what that is but we will the original station with Ella Mae deters is it support e thousand-dollar you to support the partnership conversation with have throughout the entire year and the $10,000 extra is actually before you remember we did set aside an additional money to go to San Diego with the out of my conference but we change our our our focus and we going to hold that Converse that Retreat here at the end of July so then that 10000 instead of being spent to support the San Diego Ella Mae conference is now being set aside and and and purpose to pay for the upcoming end of July retreat with the with partnership and Ella Mae and by the way I was in the oven invitation to board members as well so that's that's a context when we don't see the Dia cost to be any more than what we've seen today this is still the the building year for us we did remove an additional cost Justice Kapoor context we used to have a different team from Seattle remove that group and therefore some of the work that used to be covered by that group with the morale survey is not Landing also on top the air out of my contract so there's the additional cost associated with that okay thank you so it's an additional service that we request thank you I had also asked about that may 2023 District credit card if the second page line 1442 on this number of different charges as board member Loretto alluded to this conference in there do you want to just generally characterized at him if you got it handy what some of those things were I believe it is conferences for a variety of stop over sometime to conference because of does the nature of booking the rooms in the hotels in Saint took the only way that we can do that within the time frame for the the reduced costs will be allowed to use a district conference credit card we also using credit card people food before I'm taking we had a fabulous breakfast recognition annually for PTA leaders and and school team leaders and volunteers and Miss Williams help me for the contacts but his conferences is food for tonight meeting for example modest as it is but it out for us to stay and then and focus on the work that we do and and if we use a credit card but if the board would want to have more. and I will work with stop you have that is being part of a pre-approval process with his credit card come in the very messy way sometime we just have to take an additional step to clear that out and send it to the board Miss Williams something to that 85 MI but if there's a certain the use of credit cards is also being carefully monitored because that is one of the area that is extremely sensitive to being misused and I'm going to say that it's also season sometime we don't need the credit card at all because there's no need for any of Lori conferences in sadness is sometimes it just triggered that supporting an event or a recognition or you know opening up the year last-minute purchasing thing to recognize teachers of the year 2004. All of that has to be paid immediately and we cannot put a PO in placed on to come up with that so I will be working with staff to resubmit the background of the credit card Best Buy to the best that I can to meet the board's needs what I might also or just to consider at some point we talk about CMAC a lot this might be a very appropriate thing to ask you no see back to review I know seen just credit card raises red flags to send a the public and as he said it's an area of potential abuse and needs to be monitored not something that we need to take time at every single meeting to kind of go through that but you know they're there might be some way to have the public take a look at this or or representative body of the public take a look at this and just kind of review it occasionally or something like that and it's something to consider page 206 50 there's a special ed 14 cross country Staffing increased an open PO for Specialized Staffing services for 161000 I look back we had also authorized pio's with cross country Staffing in jail you married on January 10th for 200,000 on February 28th for 200,000 or on May 9th for 200,000 units 171,000 total for this special ed Staffing I'm assuming that all of those were and to the Max and if we continue the opening and I assume at least the first three were that's a lot I'd love to hear a little bit more I mean I know our goal is to move those special ed Staffing I don't exactly what position those were and we did hear from someone tonight that we're not necessarily flying some of those stead positions which is kind of doing everything we should be doing in order to bring those back in I don't know getting inside if doctor Fannin is on the line I would invite her too but in the meantime let me just addresses the the need for our students receiving social service or an IEP is most of the time we sort of projecting the need up next year and then we put a certain amount of dollars into the contract should have happened that that kind of service that we could not provide because we don't have the in-house capability should that far beyond what we had expected end see the increase that we set aside 200 we tapped out quickly and the students need to still increasing and by law and by by moral duty we are to put forth an increase amount so that we can cover the needs and if he needs keep arriving even more than that that's something we just have to do but let me monitor there is conversation tonight about perhaps looking at way to recover some of those services in the house but even one year that we might have large increase of a certain types of service that doesn't guarantee the next year is going to be the same thing so it's it's hard to have that kind of a predictability that we can just hire the right full-time person and what happened next year that type of service is no longer I'm going to work it out the fan and carefully I don't know if she's online to address so I can speak to I can speak to cool things that were guarding of cross-country so well I can speak to a few things so that the job listing is on edjoin and it is it is the one that that we need so that is good news we have the interviews last week so we're we're doing everything we can to to fill those positions in regards to the cross-country so those positions are for the AIDS that we need to legally have to fill the positions that are mandated by students IEPs so if we have vacancies we cannot fill through hiring then we go to the agencies and cross-country one of those so we're just we are legally required and we don't have any other option if we cannot hire then we have to go to the agency so that's what that is and then we'll speak later tonight about one of the ways looking to fill positions within the district so does that answer your question what does all the other efforts to going to bring those positions back in I'm going to have a little bit of excess capacity at the beginning of the year anticipating that needs are going to come up I mean I know it's hard to predict the needs but when were talking about one-on-ones or AIDS or things like that we shouldn't be surprised surprised yeah we we know exactly what we need and that that. PO is in the. Amount is from what we have already spent or already paid for I believe and I I would have to look at the actual po to be able to talk more specifically but we we we don't get invoice from things that are not yet provided Dutch oven and if I may be permitted to see the list of services and Personnel provided by cross carpentry it's long it's not just one type of of workers we have I'm pulling up the contract right now adapted PE teacher so we didn't have one there at the drop of a hat has a h p a. a teacher's is unnaturally wouldn't have one but that's on leave we need someone to come in place and they do cross country people would send this one in charge it by the hours another one to certify credential school nurse we didn't have one at that is needed and where one of our nurses so we could go to this company and they will provide and then again they charge us they buy the hours of service is sign language interpreters school psychologist school counselor registered nurse ate delicious mask so doctor Fannin is trying to do the best we can try to anticipate the needs and then put in person now that we we have our own employees but a certain time we just have to rely on a how do you spell multi personnel with different kind of expertise and credential and an authorization would be available at the time that we need them they need let me verify that that is the case nakupenda Mike speaking correctly on that what country is a staffing agency that that that has multiple different kinds of other employees in our goal and as as I think is everyone they might go with our department and I stink the district's goal is to the positions back back to the the district on so we are hiring we are trying multiple ways to do so but with special ed we unfortunately don't have we can't have vacant positions without being out of compliance okay thank you and actually join and I see that the special ed aide to a is fine now that's the one-on-one aid but I don't see so the two a is is for that that is the and that is either the embedded Aid or the one on one so those are the AIDS that are those are 99% of our positions thank you yeah the other thing mr. Tran on this is one of the reasons I mean having look back to find a couple of these to pull them together this is one of the reasons that I'd requested kind of an Excel sheet for the year or something because there's a lot of fences here and I'm all expanded and well you know open up the the PO a little bit longer and having a single document with all that information would make it a lot easier to look back at the year and see some of these multiples that if I opened up an open up a couple of times to see what the total expenses on them are also somewhat with an open po we open it for certain amount you know anticipating that that's the most that it'll be in a lot of cases we don't spend up to that amount so I imagine it's some point this kind of some kind of reconciliation that says we open a PO for 200,000 in the end we spend $180,000 and then that information would also be useful thank you but we did take the beginning step out of it so the first are those of my working with creating a live document that we can check on certain projects certain budget budget items we are beginning to work without construction than and maintenance project first so with a team coming in that's one of the deliverables that we are asking them to if you setting aside dollar amount to do something construction waste we'd like to know if we can track that expenses moving forward and I think we can translate. to something that we do in-house in terms of other needs this as maintenance and and then personality and additional extra assignments and even contract the services so we will work on the way we just give it some time and working on it and it's easier to have a live document to track rather than waiting at the end of the year and then going through contract by contract po by po and see how much did we spend how much we got left and then trying to catch up with the balance at the end we it's easier to catch a long let me work with Sean Curran any work without direct their physical and and put that forward I just send that out the second time today and so that we can begin tonight or are you about this because I feel like this has been requested before 2 that have some kind of way to actualize our budget since we're going along doesn't have to be live all the time but I would like to request some kind of working I don't know what it's called a working meeting or a Converse of discussion when the new assistant superintendent of Business Services comes on to ask about how we can how you can better deliver this type of request so that we have a ongoing actualization and end this will help our partners and measure K and sea back as well because these kinds of questions continue to the bubble up that aren't are you is that again I'll tell a cool group that is coming into Publix new constructions in project management in the month of October I think on the trying to say first with a second meet board meeting that would be a presentation to introduce all of the works and then all the props Turlock who is working on one of those features and presented I asked him to is is the is the live tracking system of all of the project in the budget and so let's let me work through that item my item and Department of my department but that is a refraction I remember when President Bush a lot with me at one point after she came back from a conference that came across a district that is said to have that structure in place for a long time an air of tighter budgeting it allows you to adjust the budget Midway through the year if you over budget but that money is kind of lock down and do something and you realize January February you're not on track to spending it all allows you to recapture it with the back to things you need that is what I'm going to do sometime we would lose the leadership of a certain department or or or Division and then some of those contracts are signed into no one was actually remembering that we had it so the money we just is kind of sitting there until the end of the year so this is a better product just give it time to work through that. I look forward to seeing the calendar of these meetings and discussions member questions I'm looking for conferences and only finding one but the word conferences has been used multiple times are you able to point me to them on these documents either of you or a member of the public also made a comment. don't know where they are well that's because of Miss Williams said that it day is sometime most of time to come up as credit card in the credit card so you had a previous conversation that allowed you to know that I also know there are number of Staff members and one board member at a conference right now okay so the comment wasn't specifically about items that indicated conference okay that's not that's helpful thank you may I ask what happens if we don't pass this if it doesn't get approved I don't know whether or not that will happen and I'd like to know by straw vote before we vote but I am curious of how that work cuz it is and it was just indicated by doctor Fannin at these are already expended funds fundamentally and illegally we cannot issue any payment without board approval make basically we have to clean up everything and bring back within 2 weeks hopefully and we cannot go once the board is not moving on item 9.30 example then we don't have any legal authority to pay knowing that that particular PO is was not approved so it would delay it will definitely be later all of the payments associated with without entire po you not just disapproved one itemized items it's the whole list of it so that that's that's what it would be okay okay yeah thank you yeah I wanted to ask about that beat I know that we're hearing so much from our staff about the problems with delayed payments and from our community about what an embarrassment that is I wouldn't want to also participate in then being the source of delayed payment even though I'm really looking forward to these improved process is that you're describing superintendent I was looking at some of the items that would that would potentially be interrupted and delayed including major annual contracts with to teach which is essentially one of our number one priority right now to serve our students with disabilities OCD baby field trips Street Light maintenance costume design for Laura Lou restroom flooring at El Marino other important reimbursements to parents who have paid out of pocket all ready to serve their child's needs in ways that perhaps we should have been serving them so I just wanted to be sure I understood fully what I mean if we weren't able to approve this tonight thank you thank you if I made we made I did this for my own understanding and and contextual perspective I went back 10 years ago and pull ups the old POC that auditor the purchase order that similar to what we do now compared to what we doing that we providing a lot a lot more information in detail we haven't done enough obviously the credit card is too concerned so I will make sure that we address that deeper but they're there's been steady attempt to do this and then I recognize her value being able to be self-explanatory and not having to invite any kind of a question in so I can change it we stopped on that but but we did make some conscious effort to move forward in and providing more detail in The Limited space of the documentation so therefore a live document of a spreadsheet is also helpful because it doesn't have to be every two weeks week back that moving forward so that we keep the board informed yeah Jessica, I mean that if the concern is is over of someone who would potentially not vote for this where additional information we could always schedule a special meeting in the next few days to provide that extra information or so like that I know we're meeting next week like delays would be minimal and I'm not saying that that I am that's really uncomfortable with that but you know I think he'd be concern has lack of documentation and lack of information and repeated requests for that kind of information and sell their there is certainly a concern that if that type of documentation of those don't shift you know we kind of enable them if we continue to pass things that are not well documented in response to your straw poll question I am satisfied with continue to move forward to better. navigation on things like the credit cards and stuff although I definitely hear more follow up on what are procedures around conferences and things as well but I don't think we should be turn into voting things that we're not comfortable with because of deadlines because we can always extend those deadlines if necessary do two things are done in a few hours I don't think we can so that's why I just wanted to make that point I mean I have understood in the past that children have not gone on field trips because people have not been approved yet so it is it is my understanding that there would be even impacts by days and weeks would be problematic so I just wanted to call attention to it but I agree the cornering board members is not the mission and I do not ever intend to do so I just wanted us to be very factual about the impact of the decision I was asked by our board to please under by law Presidents by law 9121 a please recognize or recognize person to desire to speak and speaker who has a floor from the services and or interference has since I just want to remind our fellow board members to please wait till the person who speak finishes and that I think we established that we have to ask if you can have a point of privilege or point of clarification so that when everybody went through the the the order that I placed at the beginning of the meeting that then we asked to speak after that because I was asked to please follow our board by loss and I I will do that for for us okay thank you okay that's enough discussed is that sufficient discussion for this will you ask for a straw vote Yes yes so I will be voting in favor and you were mentioning you would be voting in favor yeah all of those in favor say aye aye aye three eyes all of those not in favor say Nate 19.4 can I get a motion and a second and then who pulled it please start with a discussion moved approved I pulled it I did have some questions that were answered and said that stuff would follow up with a missing pay rate on a item a and that perhaps dr. Smith will be able to background on item e I got my other my other answers thank you I'm so what I would like to do is now. I demanded so we're looking at what time starts page one a first-year probationary teachers so it has the three teachers list and a math teacher inclusion facilitator facilitator one of the elementary the second at the middle school and what's not here that I would like added are the effective days so the first effective day for Miss Manga stuff would be I'm 8 18 2023 or miss a med would be her first effective day would be 725i 2023 and her Miss Sherry Cella would be a her first effective date 3725 2023 so I would like to amend with those effective date regarding out of the pay rate I did speak with my certificated staff who said that the other pay raise still being finalized with these three employees and then gas okay and then I had asked about item ete what I asked about something else but I I got my answer on that one and on item because I am unaware or at least I was unable to search for a specific job description for GI tostada and I had a good idea of what these particular people are due for the remaining of the year so I think that this is specific to a summer summer Work summer specific work and you had said a doctor Smith should be able to provide background but also it said that this job description with previously approved so if you could Point me towards that then I would just be able to help myself but you're referring to so the GI tosta is a position what support the initiative supporting dr. Smith and the all of those and I'm hoping that's what my Tatum okay talk to Smith would you be able to dress item PE in the Personnel report. Certificate for snow report somewhere Simon for Didi tosa or two of the employees listed on the the report YES Prep for are those are the two doses know that d i toast and they're The Toasters from Ed services that I needed data pulled for both of the equity plan as well as the All Blacks during the treatment plan when it dropped and we've got some data drop today so those are ours up to I'm not sure will use all of those but that's between you know just it's me an that ended up in the office and so we need additional support and services and that's the group that we've task and met with that are providing support so that's what those expenses are for ya so I guess what what what what I'm across from me was that these were Bass these were job descriptions that were previously approved but that's not the case it's just that we are using the work of art ed services to says for g.i. initiatives which is completely not not the same description there are two things going on here board members one is the the summer work that is a separate item that we're utilizing the services ptosis for and then a matter that the board considered a open discussion about last meeting about the addition of a possible de I toasted to support the work in the office that is A Separate Peace that there's no job description that has been put forth with that we need to whatever the formal process for getting prescriptions approved and we've not we just have a draft and then I'm waiting for guidance to how bad will move forward and get to the board to say that if we can be better the descriptor in the perfectly acceptable explanation if we could be better at using our descriptors because that's not a job description that currently approved and if it's like you know summer work for di4 are at services to us has been like that then that would be the appropriate description and I wouldn't have had any questions on it that makes sense I will follow up with thank you so much and I one more one more change on president of Missoula I paid 6 of 9 letter why I asked her assignment for good Elementary the effective date August 18th 2023 through June 9th 2023 should read on June 9th 2024 yes that's why can I actually had exactly the same question as we remember Loretta about the PE so we have the Amendments that got a gun mentioned about a day date to a changing the date on why can we are we in agreement that we are going to change the descriptor on ee to add Services Toast of supporting the e i or something like that because Cindy as given the converse the last time Emma lack of a job description for a DEA I toast and a lack of a process for that also kind of raised some red flags going to get absolutely satisfied with the explanation I just think it needs a better descriptor I will take point on that one will revise it tuned specifically saying summer work to support the back to achievement plan as far as Equity updating liquid Equity plan that is the title of the job do the assignment not this is confusing so we'll work on that we will receive and we will use it to stop for the black sewage treatment plant and a preparation as well as the updating of the equity plan and colleagues if I may we're also pulling a asking them to pull data for our I am Tobias lgbtq initiative as well thank you yes I want to give her number Canton present us all a chance to comment if if they'd like but I would like to it some point suggest just adding amend the motion to include those changes that we've described oh I don't I'm learning a lot thank you for the questions I appreciate all that and I course we were going to update the year so thank you I do not have any changes to this information and I think it's important if you can please follow up with an email to our cabinet to make sure that the whatever changes you want to see if you just send an email so that it's not sure what number can't you said you where did I don't remember who seconded it to somebody I didn't move it so that's why I was saying I'll support the amended motion I can amend it on the Fly unless like once we're winter. So I'd like to add the dates item a in order of 818 effect at 8:18 for the first person and the 7:25 or the other two items why did effective date you and June 9th 2024 and item ee the job the items should say my summer work for and put the titles will remain at services tosa not for me but will be amended to the ed services toaster that is correct and motion yeah if I need to check it again i s all those in favor say aye 9.9 developer be justification study yes can I get a motion I'll move it and the question I had asked on this one and I sent us into staff beforehand but again I think it's just important to bring it up feed this discussion about doing this with a considered by Seabeck or the labor partnership let me let me see if I can get the mister car need to address what but I understand there's two to share my contacts and said yes as divine a developing Danes building homes in Texas that there is is square mile square foot fee that is associated with what are they building because he anticipated that the movie Collateral needs that is on the look up the knot on the back that the district will be privileged to serve. But for that meaning we need money for constructions and other things we can't just come up with the amount of dollar and demanding higher great we have to use AAA in a neutral party that is specialized in calculating and so I'm so glad it's admitting that as a feet so we don't just go in there and demand the new developers to developers to give us more money we have to use a company and that come is the same company but we've been doing that for end up going back years then it's a thing that they are Developer see Partnerships and and not routing that through the partnership already it is simply something that we do so that we instead of receiving the payment from the old and disadvantage straight we get the most up-to-date and there's no such thing as you can only do it once a year you were just up to the district's need and we paid go to do the calculations and then we charge a higher rate legitimately and legally and you actually already addressed my question and as did mr. Carney and in an email but I think it's important for the Public's my questions why this company why aren't we beating this or anything like that and he said that we have I start relationship with this company they've got our data they know the community they've done this for us in the past and selling a lot of cases it's just them updating the process. I appreciate that answer and I guess I was in the community now that there is an existing relationship with this company and that's why it wasn't the study put out to bid on that so thank you. That was really my only question if I may also there are and I need to go back quote the laws and regulation is well most of the time they're requiring forbids had to do with construction and purchasing of large Capital Equipment but not necessary for Professional Services in even though there's some limits on on certain services I don't believe that it is the bidding that we would need for Professional Services such as this one right here can we the order I like I said the order was at Moda though since get it all pulled this I asked him to go first so Now and Then followed by I just want to add to the contacts it this has been a really interesting issue for me for a really long time because it seems like such an untapped resource you know developers come in they build properties they make tremendous profits but those families move in anytime spring children or have children and so indeed it is in my estimation is a reasonable expectation that they would give us some support to educate the children that they build residences for so it's always been a really interesting question and I've asked over the years why do we only come in at it it doesn't show up in this contract by the way but it'll show up when we get the fee results when the study results come we only come in at level 1 every time and we could there are such things as level 2 and level 3 fees where we would be able to love you much higher rates per square foot and I've always asked questions why can't we be level to we're about to increase the Bell admit many times over the population has got to increase soon although it still hasn't we're still at 40,000 many decades later but but at some point got to be level 2 based on the rate of development in the units predicted and so forth anyway that I can share with soup to share with the with the board the criteria we do not meet I don't I think we still don't meet level 2 or level 3 and some of the criteria to meet them are really interesting like school districts that are year-round would fall under a level 2 and be able to however if the school district has placed a bond on the ballot in the past 4 years such and such so there are things for us to be considering regarding the level and then so I'll send that to soup to send the board because I think you would find it interesting and I will just add that one really useful tool that the community probably knows but maybe it's helpful to say it again is that if you take the name of the organization or the title of the item or even sometimes just one key word and search for dogs you can see all the previous iteration approval or or agendize thing and it can be helpful to have that context that's all I wanted ad board member. I am in support of this item but I do want to clarify our 1998 AR 3311 and VP 3311 beds including services are included for anything of an expenditure of $15,000 more for a public project and and in addition competitive bed shell thought through advertisements for contracts exceeding 50,000 for the following and this includes and number two Services excluding Construction Services Professional Services or advice and insurance services so depending on how you read that Services excluding Construction Services Professional Service or are advice and insurance services depending on where you put the, it's questionable because that could include Construction services including professional to service services that are included in construction so you may be right that Professional Services may not be who did in this particular thing but it can be read in a different way and so maybe this is one of those things where we need to update right again I'm I am okay with this particular item we've been using this this company we don't need to reinvent the wheel like we don't see any red flags with the types of things that they're giving us compared to before but this will continue to stop that whether or not we need to have an r f r p 4 for these things and I would rather us be doing things in a watertight way but we cannot be questioned in terms of our policies and that we're doing something for the greater good of the community so let's let's look back into this 1990 thank you thank you so much I actually am reading an email from Issaquah and back on 2019 and it did say that Darby peas need to be updated so what can I say thank you I so I'm very confused what was happening here and I I think the only thing I want to say is when I went to the Ella Mai training in San Diego and the discussion about partnership was happening it was very clear to me that that that this partnership needs to be a very collaborative and they have like the six seas and you know but it was never stated that partnership needed to review contracts or that sings and I and I think we keep on adding things to the partnership review this I think it's completely appropriate for job descriptions to go through partnership because that's a labor part I think it's a question for a board member get at all what's the intention of partnership reviewing a developer speed because it doesn't seem to align with what the you know the partnership Allen my concept of being a collaborative work that come together to l.a. Kate the learning of students but it was an I only been once I know that you presented there and this is why I'm asking because maybe I'm missing something that I just don't know yeah please yeah I actually don't dis agree with you but I think in my time on the board I haven't seen kind of a clear definition of what does what does not fall within the partnership scope and I know you know I'm talking earlier about having kind of a retreat later in this summer and that's one of the things that I would hope to see come out of that is kind of up what things does partnership consult on what things does partnership not need to consult on but I think especially with it the developers study I think you're right that's probably a stretch I'll I guess I was thinking more of things like Bond work which again probably doesn't strictly fall within that but if that's something that we are hoping that all of our our interest holders will collaborate on their times when you want to include people when it's not strictly necessary or required but you know as a as a collaborative gesture but yeah I don't disagree with you I want to really emphasize that this discussion needs to be number one agendize for the LM I training Barbie treat. The role of the partnership and what are the things that they should be reviewing should be discussed in the in this Retreat I'm going to but at that because it's not an agenda item but it was just a question of clarification for that all of those in favor say aye okay 9.13 I will move literably contract addendum and again board member will go on the roll yeah that makes sense the first of all I just want to thank whoever put this in a message it was Doctor Baxter ford including the prior contract cuz that's one of the things that we talked about sometimes we get amendments are addendums or something but we don't know what it refers to it's very helpful to have that original contract in there so thank you very much what this is is apparently 24K which is twice three times a year Elementary can I get the Benchmark assessment and this is a standard and we're adding a pretest too bad one of the things that I would like. Too bad she's not here that's fine I emailed this but I definitely want a response to this eventually just to know is everyone using this Elementary is is every classroom at every School site using this to Fidelity is it something that is an option for teachers they can use if they find it usable useful so just how much are we doing with this particular because this is exactly the kind of data that I would have hoped to have seen in the El Cap and I'm doing some progress monitoring through the course of the year to see how our kids doing at the first trimester how are they doing the second trimester how are they doing at the third trimester in case you know either individual classes need some course correction or a program are near folks need a different kind of training or something like that so very interested in this data how widespread it is and how it's used the other one issue that I want to spell is we've also I feel like approved a number of software platforms and I know one of the pieces of information that we remember the right of us asked for a couple of times it's some type of listing or or or summary of what are the subscriptions that we have right we were talking about software versus Hardware or we talk about Hardware in the past when you talk about like a tech audit all of the above but just because we are adopting Auto software in two different software and then we have two different software and that's where when I ask for things like usage data if everybody's using these and there's a really having a positive impact on students fantastic but if some them are more widely used in others some of them have greater utility than others again as we move into this era of potentially shrinking the budget I think it's going to be important to kind of know what we have and have some information on which ones used in and really having an impact and which ones back to I think somebody said what do you need and what's nice to have which ones are are not essential I sent that question effectively I can read a little bit doctor Baxter but I look forward to hearing some input on that at some point thank you no, thank you. dr. Baxter would be best to answer that question but from what I have seen from from her in the past is that literally has been used for assessments for K through five mostly for our sipg IP program but there is like also some kind of fast Bridge readings Greener that they used together with it or 1st through 5th do it sounds like they're using anchor she'll have to correct me but like or correct this but like from what I'm understanding you're really using it so I am this is just a small a change or an update to our contract because they are finding this to be effective for them so I am I am bored with this there are some things that I am glad add that there's again I'm going to plus one of the you know background the background information in terms of making it easy for us to find the past contract really great but I want to continue that they were and this will come up a little later on because this is not where I wanted to introduce this information but we need to continue evaluating contracts on a more on a rubric or we're going to I need to ask questions in terms of contracts and I sent a an email reminder earlier today from for president armadillo and I back from first quarter and so I will bring that up again later on for an hour instead of these instead of think so thank you okay all of us a favor say aye okay moving has to 10.2 in Roman report and we'll start with them this information is part of the went to share with the board the monthly and sometimes every other month if we can pull information together to show the that snapshot in time in terms of how many students are enrolled in our district and where the we are experiencing a temporary up or down downward Trend in so what you saying tonight is the month of a 10 which is I believe it's April it's April in the month of April 11th which is the last month and then usual part of that is the real Jurassic Park Nation Ford average enrollment per class at the end of the school year and I don't know whether we going to have a new monthly enrollment report to the board until maybe end of September I will find out more but this this is a routine thing at this point and I'm here to address any questions you may have okay order is Kent Lodi do ghetto nothing thank you no, thank you real quick again is a very much appreciate this I love the numbers and I appreciate the consistency with which this is Hangouts thank you everybody involved with that in particular I think you know sing the classroom average is helpful because it it is a number you know it tells us where we're doing well where we have need of some of our classes are definitely at the entry level that would be good then we'd like but there is one class of thirty on there which isn't ideal but you know it's not necessarily the worst numbers out there I would really like to find some way to do something similar at the secondary level next year to have some kind of class average and I know it's much more challenging cuz kids at 6. Today or something. Today or are you don't all kinds of variables in math but I I think some type of number out there about exactly how many kids are in classes where are largest classes in what we can do to work on that, but just to get that out there I had a couple of specific questions you can just follow up with the principles on these you always expect a little bit of fluctuation a couple kids had a couple kids drop it's actually at the end of the year but when I was looking at the difference between month 10 and 11 there are a couple that just jumped out and I'd love some follow-up just somebody check in with the principles about what happened there was it just kind of a crazy fluke El Rincon went El Marino their fifth grade class from 10 to 11 lost students and that's a lot more that's in a 9% of that that whole group just a lot of kids move away at that point or something like that ringtone to tk9 students over the course of a month which is 19% of the class again folks just pull out all of a sudden and you don't see that at the other schools or the other grades I'm just kind of curious what happened there and then Linwood how to say they lost 7 students but it's so much a group that 29% of the of a t k program exited over that month so just you know to the Stars line funny was there something going on at that point but he could be worth following up with the principles about if they have any any idea what happened there do you think that it's possible that it's the El Marino field trip in that case would that show up as attendance or that's not the same as enrollment it will it would be it could potentially be right I don't know how that field trip wonder how it is after P2 which is the date we turn in for it's not but I'm trying to think of DBL Marina ship he didn't disenroll here but when the student came from there that's didn't actually enrolled for three weeks because we had to do with paperwork and things like that I may be curious about the principals have to have any thoughts of what happened to el Marino Rincon and Linwood powder TK's last night seven out of pattern or for the sites in for the grade levels Across The District class size for the middle and high school I'm sure some other District up done some things I'm just going to go out but not me but stop going to the looking to replicate some of these houses were contracted by the ups and downs of class sizes thank you any any any other discussion 10.3 second reading of a r 51-42 will start with stop this is not ready for board to approve I believe the last time we took it to board was two weeks ago and we did get some relation that is requested Bible numbers and I believe those are now in place and I'm inviting board questions and hoping for an approval vote tonight I apologize sorry I'm a dresser doesn't this information item so the AR 51-42 was actually placed under information so we can vote for it okay so you will need bring it back if that's what you're asking am I misunderstanding that we looked at the BP ask him to me or we only look at the yard is in terms of the total cost and procedures it was suited for info item for that reason but clearly I was telling we still have time I believe we need to have this a are approved and then we take the approved to the school site Council review to that they can incorporate this into their comprehensive school safety plan in the in the fall so we got time yeah no problem thank you Laredo I want to I didn't submit my my questions and concerns via email no I want to thank you for changing the language to English word that the active shooter training would be specifically for our staff because we have a significant research just say that the including students in May be detrimental to our our students mental health I want to thank you for that we did dance around it at the last meeting that I was not actively participating in I did make mention in my email request that there were a number of policies that are cited and cross-referenced in this AR or a there's a number of AR for pallet and policies that are cited in this AR that we do not currently have in our manual and I did want to point out a superintendent that our current manual that is posted on ccusd. Org does not include any of our most newly added good items since I've been on the board so so when I received a response from dr. Smith one of the things that she mentioned was you know I was some of this has already been taken care of realized she was right on one of them but it had not been updated in the manual yet and there was also another one that was not updated in the manual yet that was spoken about last week which was 5131 that have been updated and I would have also coming into this because this is also safety we updated 5131 but we did not add 51 31.8 wishes for cell phone and other devices and we need to desperately do that because we cross-referenced that item that policy without adding the policy and we remove that that piece that that specifically talks about that so please advise that 4 for another time so these particular ones we don't that I had said and again one of these is actually on the book but not on ccusd. Org it's only available on board but it is not amended is not with all the Amendments we might have passed with it that night and these are 514-4514 5.11 +514-414-231-5138 and 5141 .22 these are all the ones that are referenced in this current ar51 for to draft that do not appear on h e c u s d. manual however one of them has been recently adopted or revised or updated so references sometimes there just reference for us in case we need to look it up but sometimes they're really cross-referencing something to say this is important material that we need to reference and if we don't have it in our own manual then why why are we even adding it to this AR and why should it be here if it's why should the cross reference be here if it doesn't apply to us and some kind of want to cry and I'm okay with that but in some cases like the 51 we won the witches missing 513 1.844 cell phones and electronic devices it is very important that you have that extra bit of information and because it's describing something that only describing in summary in that particular part right there and this is one of those things 5 I'm in number three of under release of students were across referencing 514 5.11 questioning and apprehension by Ron and number three and we just don't have that on her books so why should we even included or do we need to include it because this is not something that we discussed with our ethereal program like where the discussion like or maybe cabinet doesn't want us to discuss that and we can just remove it I'm making it up its you know y'all put it on here so we either need to do the work or or leave it off and I don't know what the the right answer is dr. Smith had said in her email response some of this is summer work some of this Shield later on when staff comes back but it didn't seem it seems kind of silly to me whether or not this stuff would actually come back to us it within a timeframe to actually formed if that makes any sense in overall the besides across references and the typos that Mr Levinson referred to and I will point it out right now so that it can be mended but I would have been okay with amendments If This Were an action item for tonight if it was it's not and we're not going to do that but the the typos that I see is on the second page under the principal or designee shall require all individual supervising students remain alert for and then I guess there was a little copy paste mistake here so this is Heather the one students ar5 142 and safety crossed out should be removed and it should just be alert for unauthorized persons and dangerous condition and go on from there that's the the typos I think Mr Livingstone was talking about I do also that something that I was not concerned about which is a bicycle helmet thing I know that in the last meeting it came up that whether or not we can are willing to or we are willing to enforce and so I will say that the and I will reiterate here that the law in California is that my tires or are those under 18 and need to wear a helmet whether or not our staff is enforcing that it is another thing and it shouldn't just be I am I am more comfortable with the wording it was previously where it said I'm sorry I didn't it's not in the same place over here where it said that they shall wear helmets they shall be encouraged to is encouraged to wear properly fitted and fastened bicycle helmet because it is the law and I do not want to go against the lake everything if we don't have the it is if we're not going to actively be able to enforce it that's an that's another thing but I think that the policy is that we are in line with state law and we can go get it I'm open I guess that's the only thing that would be that that was not really discussed I think the last time it was just a question of whether or not we could so I look forward to any discussion that anybody else has a butt about that particular item so but otherwise I am I'm pretty happy with the with with how the actual content of this policy that they are is is shaping up so thank you I was just going to point out that we need to make sure to hit those typos but I do want to add in response to miss Laredos point I hear you on being consistent with the law I don't see us in this case in the enforcement role on this not that important to me but I don't see us having something in the policy that we're not going to enforce so I think encouraged the students it acknowledges what the law is but it doesn't say that we are going to be put in the position of ticketing kids taking bikes away if they don't have helmets or things like that I don't know if there's some better wording but if you feel strongly on it and I'm okay with that too does that a lot does that last piece need direction to be specific so we're deciding between shall or encourage essentially I'd like to support by giving direction as a third on one of those but I actually don't have a very strong opinion on it except to say that I don't feel that we should be implying that we're asking our staff to be enforced so as I say that out loud I will support encourage I will also I appreciate pointing things being pointed out to me because this is 2 steps to remove the group of experts or staff members at work on revising this took a 1998 version which I don't think they sell goes even existed at that time so we made progress again fluid do you need to be careful when we cut and paste some time we left behind things that didn't make any sense and then sometime we reference things that I am going to say that we would just come and pay some some other District work and maybe other District work app BP 29 yards and we just didn't take the time to go through that so to honor the process we will I will instruct stop to go in and clean up and we don't have it then then don't put it in there because it isn't there is a provision that I remember learning about helmet law whether we are enforcing are not enforcing we don't want to leave a language that would allow a legal challenge should an accident with a happened and it said see you and you were negligent in been forcing this situation to me find out and then I'll bring back in and then we can address that from the next time I just want to point out that the sample is shall correct that shall wear a property properly fitted and fastened bicycle helmet but it do not say that it needs to be enforced by Declan because of of crack of crashes at certain intersections that we are looking at and I knew for a fact that all of I know for a fact and I made it through my work and maybe it's through you know me knowing a lot of folks that do roll to school but there have been other crashes that will went unreported and that I know this children specifically that and sometimes they're wearing a helmet and sometimes they are not but they go under repair did because first of all there's an embarrassment about it and that they don't take the time they don't want to take the time to do it because they want to like they they feel like they need to get the class they need to get a move on and that they you know and they do sit there and wait for PD or like or or afterwards if you like it's going to take for my life if I talk to somebody about reporting it so I just want to be very clear that shall saying does not indicate that we are making our staff be responsible for telling like for ticketing for war enforcing and she'll and compass encouraged to without saying that if this is not the law rather than shall that we are walking the law. That's what I'm more worried about and I feel like it's all so that it's it's a stronger word because we want the best in health and safety for her so I don't find anything wrong with it in front of liability to our ability or our need to enforce about the helmet law I want to move this along and say that I support us asking legal if she'll or encourage will lead us to a discipline roll and I do also agree that our staff has plenty to do and that it should not be falling on them to enforce this is a parental and child and maybe what we can do is do an educational program through the walk and rollers about enforce the families and force same helmet you text so bad I hope you have Direction now I do information I also want to encourage the board Who provided very specific details if you could follow up with an email cuz we know that some of our cabinet is not here and so this could really help them make sure that everything is capture and that we can vote at the next meeting for this AR and I say I'm very grateful for following up with an email I know it takes time from us moving to action items according to a board by law on 9323 the way that we are supposed to take action items as that we receive background information from admin then we get a motion and then third members members have a discussion Follow by taking action so we will start with 12.2 and approval the bail bond counsel agreement and we'll start with information we went I approve of this system super and then a business service contract thank you very much present, so I am pleased to bring to the board tonight the contract with David James Drake the finalists for the selection of hopefully being the next assistant superintendent for business services for Culver City Unified School District allow me to just go through the process quickly doctor Drake has been interviewing with us for I think a prostitute and a half and receiving High support and recommendations and such and such and we finally managed to go through the process. There's a bit of a challenge for us because he is currently serving a district in in the Illinois Chicago and so I'm going to turn the time over for Mr elocon to share some of the background and then we'll we'll take some questions from the board just just to add to what I missed your train was saying I dr. Drake and so he does have this. degree he's been a superintendent for an assistant superintendent of Business Services or number of years about 4 years and also Director of Business Services or proximately age of 10 years and years or becomes a highly recommended qualified and so are very enthusiastic about having him come on board with us can I get a motion will move to approve the assistant super Business Services contract 2nd and discussion I don't have any discussion I'm really eager to meet dr. Dre going to begin work with doctor dracon if Dr Drake has been listening to our board meetings the understand that there is quite a bit waiting on their desk including some additional duties assigned tonight so looking forward to that I will support I am thrilled to be filling this position and look forward to meeting Dr Drake and and working with Dr Drake and Future when I first saw this item I was a little surprised I did not realize that it had individual contracts versus just the scale and things like that like some of our other employees but then I went back and searched on my computer I had actually done some Union work about 10 years ago and I found I had a copy from 12 years ago of the assistant superintendent of business office contract for members of the public and folks who brought up titles with their assistants soups are appropriate or whether we should have directors 12 years ago we had an assistant superintendent of business services so we had that position for quite a while I see other than the reference to the pay scale because the pay scale is not in the contract but it references the management pay scale kind of in a different place the contract identical and so this is not anything in any way 8 go from the previous assistant superintendent of business suit for a business services or the one before that or the one before that or the one before that so just if anybody's got any concerns about changes or you know flower a thing was in the contract or stuff like that this is absolutely the same contract that we've been using for over a decade so thank you very much for everybody who did this end and putting in the work and he can look forward to meeting you break and working with Dr Drake though thank you at the pleasure of interviewing being part of the final interview to interview Dr Drake there's some outstanding qualities such as she's a has extensive experience in construction projects she is a teacher or was a teacher and the most interesting thing and I do remember this thesis was on this the one of the interesting things is that he's done a lot of research on our district and he talked about his project of bringing a Korean hip-hop or Kayla to the current District that he's at and I just thought that all of those qualities seem to be an exceptional fit or where we are in our district right now wanting to prove our language services for English Learners wanting to improve our facilities for construction and having someone that's intimately going to care for our student needs our budget so thank you so much for working through this labor of interviewing for 3 months and thank you all of those in favor say aye okay now 12.2 and we'll start with staff thank you if I may also bring to board for approval tonight is a secondary group to support the bond conversation moving forward in the car with our community so two weeks ago I believe we we were approved by the board to bring in team Civics kind of Woodley Consulting Team 2 address and linking posters and so on so forth. King Civics was part of the winning measure CC in 2014 if I remember correctly 1779 it's 106 million dollar Bond and so this is the second the second piece of its needed which is a legal counsel to support guiding the bond, may I take a minute to kind of address a statement out there is that this is a Workforce housing Bond facility or Council of know we do we engage straddling because that was the same group that helped us way back then when we passed measured CC 406 million dollars we do not pick this group for anything things to do with words for silent they are to provide legal counsel and making sure that whatever you propose to the community and that's well as unto the voting onto the ballot is legally binding and and with that in mind there is no Associated of anything beyond what exactly it what it is in front of the board tonight so I'm hoping for a provable tonight I love it a second I'll start with Kim oh so yeah I apologize I should be clear the bond measure CC was 2014 I was in my mind and measure k space which was I don't know 2018 or something like that so I only wanted to add contacts because we did here and public comment on this item that we we use an organization called tbwb to do our polling for measure K and were you saying they did pulling for measure CC as well okay that was before my time and then we just hired a polling agency two weeks ago for the purposes of exploring the idea about a bond and not as an organization called civics in season the law firms are very different this Law Firm we have used on both measure CC and measure K and they're more about it actually states that right at the top of the car chocolate more to the effect of you know how do you make sure that you stay in your lane because bonds or any ballot measure can be very tricky because the district can decide to go on the ballot to put a measure on the ballot and anything up until that point is above board but once that has been submitted to the county then everyone is paying very close attention and you can no longer use any District funds in any way shape or form associated with it because it's campaigning and so where at where a law firm comes in whichever Law Firm is that they then guide the district and the board in making sure that that is all above board you can't spend District bonds you can't use district emails you can't send out materials you can make a robocall you can't and on and on and on and helping to make sure it was very different than the polling agency their varied their two entirely different contracts and yeah I just thought it would be helpful to add that context so I know that we've used them before but I would like to just ask so that we know so the public knows too you didn't bother requesting proposals from anybody else because this is a service that you've caught a contractor that you've used before correct I think that we continue to ask the kind of question and we continue to ask for more background as either in the agenda as a description or as a another attachment just just say oh we are we're going back to a contractor that we've used in the past you know no other niort was was you no issues and and we've been happy with also it helps us because when we are Fielding public comment it's coming from a more it's coming from a more informed thing because I know I know we are used to do it using the search function on board dogs and being able to like look at what years we did have them at come up in the past but sometimes it may not come up as I may struggling a bit come up as like an acronym for maybe eight doesn't come up on your bond counsel maybe it comes up as you know lawyers for I'm just making it up in terms of like it's a pain sometimes be I'll do like I'm there appreciative of doctor can't providing the keyword search information to our public it should sometimes the owners shouldn't be on them and we we really have been asking before about better descriptors in the agenda so that we don't have to continue you know doing this rigmarole of did you are if he did you is was there a rubric and you know but I think I like what I really want to bring up this warm right now is my concern that where we at the board or being asked to to look at these contracts and ask them which which is correct I think that what we've been asking for two is an education about like what our timeline should be in terms of first we are looking for pulse pulling companies that control looking for you don't counsel and I do believe that we've asked for this kind of timeline before and in the past from what I've seen in my search from work. Is that there is kind of like an education for especially for a new boyfriend are newer board member and even a veteran board member who hasn't done this kind of work before is that where we're looking for more resources so that we can get engaged in the best way possible to give you the best. so and in the past off that you had mentioned to lock you earlier because they will be who are our our construction project management folks and although we had passed the a direction to give it to give you directions in order to engage in creating a contract from what I remember we don't actually have a contract right now so there I feel like very disjointed and we don't have a good as a as a board we still need and I'm going to go back to this government counter we were expecting some kind of discussion or education session whatever you want to call it so that we can better be a be a better leader and I don't know what that should look like and maybe and I'm going to ask dr. Maybe two I'm here at like like when you went through this before were you just Guided by your other board members was there you know this was what was there these kinds of sessions where we had discussion about what our expectations are going to and how we're going to move forward, comprehensively and cohesively together so that we don't have this disjointed feeling that we're we're doing different cheeses I just remembered I'm sorry to say that there was no education of board members in my experience in similarly to the lack of onboarding there was I didn't understand that things were coming before they came usually and it including with the bond I understood things as they are either saw them on the agenda at work we heard about them in a Friday my mom for the first time and I did not know the timeline unless the hired contract outlined the timeline in a presentation thank you that I was looking at it in my search previously and when I look at Best Practices from other folks is that there's some kind of presentation from coming from a contractor saying these are the kinds of things that you know we're looking at this is a timeline this is what we need to do and so I was expecting that kind of thing that we will be engaging some a consultant to take us through what that timeline was going to be and I'm unclear about that and so if an item to have that discussion right this second to for this particular item so I'm requesting it for the future so that we we can move forward and in a faster more cohesive way and transparently to Republic as well I'll call you yes so we haven't heard from board member yet I don't so I would like you were asked a question but I would like for us for Lodi. to finish and of course superintendent if you can provide some context that would be great but then I do really want to move when you're done we remember what I do to get I do continue mr. katsu I'm going to take advantage are you an opportunity to share a quick maybe 30 second time bike before we bring the bond to the public we have to take a resolution to the board of education for them and for the timeline that is 2024 that resolution would have to contain. 75 word wording thing and they have to delineate exactly how the how much money were looking for supporting and what are the purposes so that would be in the first board meeting in November and from that point on we have to backtrack all the way how many how many survey questionnaires we going to send out how many emails are going to send how many phone calls we go in the back and how do we tablet holder that presented to the board so the more have a sense of how much money could we ask for and all of that I don't have any contacts about her on what I knew was when I was in the Habra serving as a part of the team back then. the two Bonds in Alhambra I don't count on myself knowing enough to read anything so I need to bring team in and to a certain degree team Civics were just helping us if they let you start at this point with two groups and then they bring the third group in this the time you need a bond person out of bond counsel so that's a support group is bringing in and so I will sit down with my team I think Friday and to navigate through its it's time that we can send something in writing the boy just kind of lay down T the backward mapping and and as of right now we working in multiple dimensions and sometimes things are just coming at me the morning of and I just have to spend time and work through it but I will make sure the we communicate with the board because I do have a small team put together and this one is I think it's at the last piece of the puzzle all done remember guide go to argue complete with your initial remarks it sounds like you were going to come back to us with that kind of time frame right I mean like because I think that this was a little rated to me during our discussion about team Civics and prior so I'm just I just want to know if we could land that kind of discussion in the future or I need you to speak to the team leaders for the day that you could because right now the bond counsel is is is on I need to hear from the bond counsel legal I was out to see what else we can present to the board for the timeline so I'm reluctant to go check it out but it is going to be super soon it is because we need the board or a representative of the board to sit down with us to weave the content of the questionnaires of the survey not necessary the whole board but two members of the words of that we do we do not buy the brown I do know that is coming up so soon we going to be approached the board in the contacts that we need to have a working functioning team including two members of the Board of Education to get the survey will not be released until we got a sense of do we see everything what else are we missing and that could call me come from your perspective and that's an important thing and including of that is that if advice with the come to us is also we need perspective from leadership at I'm sorry if I'm partnership from parent groups student's perspective all of that has to be in place and I don't know enough how to how the different groups is accelerated math for that because now that gives me the idea and I'm going to ask for president now it sounds like we need to create a subcommittee and we will have to have a discussion about that subcommittee so that's when and maybe that's the thing that we need to attend ice next instead of whatever I asked for it because maybe that is that subcommittee that needs to be a Jen diet The Next Step rather than thank you and if I may also adding the emergencies that there's only a week left before we have to draft that resolution to go to Boise for November meeting and I sometime and boxed in with an able to float any kind of RSP waiting for B come in and a month later taking a recommendation to the board this thing sometimes it's is excited so quickly and I will do better in the future but as of right now that the process is moving and with the additional approval of this contract tonight it will give us an advantage of capturing as much of a time we have left in the summer into the fall and preparing for the solution to the board in the month of November I also want to I will ask csba for their bond presentation which I attended one of the last two csda conferences and I do want to say that that step of having an educational meeting where a subcommittee is created is a berry important step because then they become part of that Bond committee that superintendent and that information kind of lies there and they do the heavy lifting those two board members do the heavy lifting and I do want to say we're doing something very very difficult were thinking about how we're going to fix our facilities and thinking about how we're going to look for long-term income but I'm going to look go back that first ask for number to know if she's complete and if if she is then go to Bournemouth on this particular item I am complete and so I think that there's going to be more information do I have a lot more concerns about entering this relationship without looking at other other options than I do over the developer fee when I'm in that was $9,000 this one is a lot more I was ten times as 67000 for the bond but then it's 223,000 every time we draw down from that so I mean it's looking like 90,000 on this cell it's one of those things where I think there's a lot of rust building and confidence-building we're going to have to do with the community in order to get a bond past and so my instinct is always the air on the side of doing things absolutely squeaky-clean and buy the book and sometimes even more so than is necessary because if that's what it takes for skeptical folks to build the confidence board member Kent said we used this group traveling for measure CC so that would be was 2014 you said yes I searched the word stradling and I will tell you that when I searched full name I did not find it so to border loretto's point it did take finagling which is why I mentioned using one key word sometimes helps and then we also use them for K yes so they are also featured in the solution for measure K so apparently they've advised us on not violating those campaign laws for both because they applied though there was another group that was mentioned by by members of the public that fits spoke to you recognize any of those groups that we have multiple groups advising us on it we all legal and pulling or separate in that commenter was completing the two things okay we have an organization for pulling which we talked about icivics and they my understanding tbwb was the and they gave us the timeline in the past as a formal presentation to the board which I was expecting Civics to come forward and do at some point to give us that timeline because they're the ones that actually hand hold us the bond counsel is not about hand-holding dentist they don't do that you'll get in trouble or do it this way so you don't get in trouble they don't walk us through the process and to the concerned about Workforce housing at me with his company's God does Workforce housing or not I mean that's they can do whatever they want I mean that doesn't affect how certainly I vote on things and it still got to go through us to for anything to happen still I'm not comfortable with this pattern that we've developed for there was telacu or whether it was Civics you know we're doing so many of these things without looking at other options and I appreciate the staff looking at these options I appreciate that you're looking at these options superintendent but when I look at the prices of that 67,000 to issue the bonds 1:37 pull the money I don't know if that's a good price or not because I don't have anything to compare it to and so I would be absolutely not if we are on such a tight time line I would be absolutely willing to come back for a special meeting sometime soon but I am not in favor of moving forward with this without at least seeing something from somebody else and having something to compare this to to know that we are making the right choice and then ultimately to reassure the community at Large let me take this seriously that we are considering all options not just going with what easy or or in this case somebody that we've worked with in the past but to demonstrate to the community how seriously we take this process careful were being with the money that we are going to ask them to invest in the the school district so I appreciate that I appreciate the process I do not feel comfortable supporting this without some other options I did actually as soon as the name came up I looked up other groups quickly and I checked back with my former school districts and see if there's any bond Malaysian going on I did take straddling and went to Casa the cows are in San Diego and went specifically to a conversation on bond measures and I checked around and the name of the company is pretty valid they they are an idol and that the $67,000 is only got warded to the company after the bond has been approved so that that's kind of a contingent upon indeed the passage of the bond itself but the $23,000 to pay for their professional cost that's they move forward their three parts the before the vote during the vote and then after the vote including giving helping us with or helping a district with the how to package to the bond and how much to sell and so on so forth they are strictly a legal counseling team to make sure that we don't inadvertently what's up with you something that might jeopardize the the passage the bond so I thought that with the $67,000 contingent upon passing of the bonded cell is acceptable but again I'm open to the other concern but I did look into and having almost three and a half hours in San Diego San Diego on Thursday night last week just to look around and see what else is happening here before asking that items be placed on the board on Friday the next remember that I got you done okay so I just quickly saw a surge csba presentations and I don't don't have the presentation so I'll ask Tara Lynn if she has it I think it's a really good presentation that has like an a timeline and so I will do that and then I want to have mentioned a correction for the public and to please make sure that our minutes make this correction tholocco went through an extensive process of bidding so I know we remember get a dimension that talako did not go they actually went through an extensive RFP process multiple bids multiple levels of energy doing there was a grid given that we remember load either and I are are on different cycles of our campaign I invited her to join the in you process and I invite her to talk about the talako RFP and how extensive it was and and I do want to say I think it's important for us to really when we have our new C Bo have a discussion about art piece because we are overwhelmed with agenda items you have really expensive long meeting and if we're going to ask for every contract to have an RFP then we need to look at the board by law we need to have this video expertise here and I need to decide this is how we're going to do things so that regardless of what contract comes we follow that because what's happening right now we have a really old by law that has a price tag that I feel like if we have to go through that process our staff would all they will be doing is doing our thing because we review at least 20 contracts everyday every board meeting and if they had to do an RFP for every contract that is just not an efficient way to use a seabios Time because it takes their tie time to create and process these are pigs so I wanted to put that correction there because I think it's really important that that's a huge contract and that it was that it thank you for remembering other would you like to talk about that RFP process I don't think it's appropriate for me to bring it up here but I did say that there was a rubric and and superintendent I meant that it would be shared and it hasn't been shared so I just want to point that out I don't know how you want to share it but that's also something that our public was asking about before did Leif Garrett with with the rest of the weather I said a word and I do believe that mr. Quinn had a contacted at least I know he contacted me to say like you know to say that is Toto had the it was maybe just do address the the contract with telacu is still were coming they met with myself and our transitional group to Harrison. to overlap and see what it's about stopping for her so she would look like and until they are talako and the district will sit down next week to address so what is it that they go into supposed to us in terms of their contract with their services for multiple years to come so my apology for having to take so long but it deposit took a long time for it till I cool Harris associate and ask and now with the upcoming Bond conversation to Melaka will be part of that as well but the back will be forthcoming as soon as I can navigate through that without a crew leader it's almost the end of the summer so you can write a remind you that so I guess that the I would like to know if they're there needs to be a a struggle cancel all of those at the okay no I think that's all I want to say about all of this favor say aye aye aye those were not in favor say nay okay I have a request board president on its 10:40 and I if I could have a be accommodated to move up 16.1 and because I do have some comments there that I'd like to deliver before I leave and turn into a coughing fit so if you would please consider I am open to any other board members move 16.1 and I'd like to invite remember can't if you could please tell us how many oh my goodness I'm very neglectful in my clerk duties so I'm going to back up a little so we heard public comment on item 10.22 folks we heard for 10.32 folks we heard for 12.11 comment and then importantly for item 12.2 which we just passed on we heard from four people including our to labor labor groups I did I say 6.2 because I meant 16-point 16.1 oz of 16.1 we did not hear any comments start with I think your president I'm is a lot I'm just this upward item was brought forth at the last of the pride board meeting it's a job description for athletic director artosa are there concerns regarding the responsibilities being more in line with an administrative position we did remove the the bullet that listed on evaluating we also added some language with assistant principal when it came to the budget areas so with assistant principal to oversee side athletic activities with assistant principal to prepare coordinated manage athletic budget but I'm also recommending that we had two more with assistant principal and they are on the second page so if you're looking at the second page of the job description and counting down one to the ace bullet. that reads ensures that each School each coach follows District policy procedure zif Blue Book regulations and athletic code of conduct so that would be processed with with assistant principal in addition to that if you look all the way down to the last bullet other duties as assigned and count up the fourth Bullet From The Bottom the moving up ensures that Recruitment and hiring processes are followed and all coaches have completed how to say prior to starting assignment I'd like to add with assistant principal ensures that recruitment Etc so I'd like to a med with those two with assistant principals and request approval from the board okay, maybe I can second I will start with Kim I'm sorry can you fill in addition to the insurers with assistant principal and chores that Recruitment and hiring processes are followed can you repeat the other you said there was another one right can you can you tell me what number bullet that is or from the top down it would be the ace down the one that says ensures that each coach follow yes thank you thank you thank you I have no comments thank you okay so before I get into the is it Carmen as presented I will not support this particular job description because I feel that every time these job descriptions have been coming up where sing background information so again this may just be like either a cover letter or within the agenda topic where you're going to say this has been submitted six things and I can put this in an email for you you know how the how has it been sent to partnership what's the salary has it gone to partnership number two what's the salary range number three how does this fit in the org chart for does this count as in or out of the classroom I think that this is pretty consistent but like we need to know the specs number five is their impact to our budget currently are we just replacing somebody or like what what what is that a number 6 out is this particular job description serve our priorities in the district things that I think that should always be included in any of our job description whether it is an update to her job description there's a new job description or whether you were winning duties I think that you know these are very similar to what I reiterated in the email that I sent from from March about contract we just should not be guessing at these things because we're we're just not as it should be easily easy for us to find an easy for a public to buy do you have any of those things for us today so you listed several things can you go one by one and I'll make more than so yes talks write your interview I sent it to a partnership to ask if they had any feedback and is there a salary range that you that you'll be sharing them salary schedule which is that to 12 work day 1 correct so okay I just don't have that readily available and then this doesn't specify the site I am assuming that is a PCA test so this position would report to the high school principal because of high school principal oversees all programs within the high school so we're looking at the org chart this is a stand-alone position but it this person would report to the high school principal High School principal not the AP although this person it's at directly under the AP but I'll turn this person reports to the AP and is in valuated by the Athletics yes because although it says with so you were admitting to say with assistant principal it just sounds it's a very like ultimately right the assistant principal is should be the deciding factor because administrator should have final say this is a is this in or out of the classroom this is considered out of class is there mpact to our budget this is a position that was currently held by a different individual who's going back to the classroom so there is no impact to the budget because the other prior person who held this position set up a personal requisition for extra Duty assignments during the summer so as a balancing what we did is we change the work calendar to 2:12 work calendar and then I'm going to assume that the stars are priority athleticism is a part of our student achievement and absolutely so I will follow up with those six things and I will expect that all of our job descriptions from now on in the it doesn't maybe there's a cover letter or there's it's in the in the agenda description that we're we're we're we're answering these okay so I seen that there's a law and I was asking also before before that this is completely out of the classroom so this person does not have any any dotted line to pee PE or on GE credit score or any of that yes that's correct this person is allowed to supervise the payee program a supervised students because this person is also a but this person doesn't have a roster if if I made there might be the need to have a teacher record for some of the I needed to become a class with class descriptions and Grading and so I'm super so we looking at the possibility of having this toast at to also be a classroom teachers of some sort I don't know how this good work until I go to with all the other staff members who are robbers in this but we needed somebody to address that as well so we'll report back to the board with more information but right now the answer is that we don't know it's an out of classroom assignment but we are hoping for some sort of overlap so that we can support certain sports program specifically athletic director of CC chess or something like that because you know it says it goes into basic function and its is pertaining to a school site and I mean I know that the thing for high school but like it's it's like making too many assumptions and I want this to you know we're going to use this from now on we like that because it's not clear on whether or not that this position could also be 4 p.m. several forms of diversity language that I think that you could clean up but I'm not going to like it's just a little bit messy in terms of are continually saying like diverse racial ethnic socio-economic backgrounds and you know work with populations with multiple abilities and diverse students and demonstrate like there is and I think that it can just be cleaned up a little bit but that's not what's going to make me feel like I would not support this one of the things that I'm on the first page 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 + 8 7th and 8th and maybe 97 through 9th bullet on the first page I'm a little concerned that it also not include with assistant principal and let me tell you why right now we have instances of our team medic team God bless they are trying to fundraise to make their you know their season successful and what is happening is that sometimes they are fundraising through personal venmo tell other you know digital platforms and you know this is not compliant with Ed code and and things go out on social media including flyers and things and I don't want to I want to needs to be streamlined it shouldn't be that this that the fundraising doesn't happen but there needs to be some kind of streamline where you know this is going through whatever it happens to be ccfr booster club what are needs to be so that they are easily fundraising and I don't know whether it should be the toasters responsibility to you no make that happen and so if it's weird assistant principal driver suggestion what about under the direction of the assistant principal but I also from what I I'm feeling from other programs to is that and maybe it's because we had a gap this past year with principal that some of these you know maybe we're not really sure who has the last hey in your what does the the fires and and things like that sometime so I just want it to be very clear which is why I'm asking where is the org chart and where does the buck stop who is really supposed to be compliant in charge of making compliance issues there if you do and I don't know so it shouldn't be the assistant principal like if I see if I see something should I be forwarding it on to his neck sounds like what I like where it where are we going at my thought is yes assistant principal receiving athletic activities I miss Nicholson will be the direct supervisor up this particular program this particular tosa so including fundraising efforts which is similar to all the other administrative position that is overseeing staff members who aren't supporting and conducting fundraising under the direct supervision of an assistant principal okay thank you and for your other question regarding specifying the high school we could actually preface right first word under basic function teacher on special assignment we could save Culver City High School teacher so we could put it right there front and center whoever move this I don't know if you're going to be able to capture these it's in Edmonds or what because these are it's it's getting to be I think I have them so it would you like me to list what we have so far when we're ready for for the motion to be amended on the second page 5 6 7 there is a on the seventh bullet it says coordinates and assures eligibility of athletes at all levels my question is this to how do we I mean I'm guessing that this is has to do more with GPA and number of semesters eligible and absenteeism and all all of that but I also want to add that child who is not maybe not bad but this is my question here you know typically and I know that doctor I is the one that I have is the title 9 to send the Title Nine compliance but there's also the thing about piggy credits and how we should be making bring that our athletes are also receiving them in 9th and 10th grade wear their unit where it where where they should be and so how do we make that not just gatekeeping access but also that our athletes are we leaving the benefits that they need to be receiving as well I I believe that that's happened address beyond the scope and sequence of Edisto supposition and and do right dr. I would be are in 2 inspector-general of you will make sure that the equal access to to p e credit that is supported to many tablespoons are also should be if we're supposed to be doing Special sports program as well let me in and let me address. somebody else will be responsible to work with the district to manage that but I don't think it's it's this tosa person because ultimately it is still a teacher's position but let me give you another example where this bullet would come into play coordinates and ensures the eligibility of athletes at all levels athletes need certification and Kush and certification there's all sorts of certificate agents that affect there's a checklist so my staff and I work very very closely last year with Tom Salter and Ebony Nicholson to ensure and check off that each coach had the proper certification and that the other students were also eligible so we go through a checklist with both of them to ensure that that everything is in place so that they're eligible and I Quest this is not about this but can I request that we have the that the board have access to the last Title Nine Matrix for all of the Athletics and who is getting credit and disaggregated please because if it's supposed to come through her compliance but then we need to make sure that something is happening at in or old fart whether it's the 20 so the ep the principle like like I want to troubleshoot there and if you're saying it's not the toaster then I need to fall somewhere okay so that's a that's a side quest for you down below coordinate all sports putting in shorts all letter certificates and awards are ordered just FYI our district has not ordered letters since before the pandemic my child has not received a letter I'll do they receive certificate any awards given sense so that's not going on right now down below that 2 below so I don't know if that's not what we're doing anymore for not doing letters anymore then we shouldn't include that or we should read and if at some point we're going to be bringing it back it would be worthwhile to leave it an end and when we purchase letters they're like $5 each but they're like $50 for each student to purchase on their own and for them not to be able to have their varsity jacket or whatever that it is is it a deal so if that's not going to be our policy that should be included in her coordinates and documents practice times a week schedule when would this because I don't know in the past it's been a real gatekeeping issue and maybe this has more to do with our liaison Committee in our joint use agreement because sometimes our I don't know how equitably happens when sometimes our own teams or certain certain teams aren't able to use Fields the way that they need to because they are being promised to outside contractor outside folks ahead of time and so then when we have a A change is difficult to to make that change on the weekends or you know when were into playoffs action or and especially with our our gym high high usage so I I don't understand how that how this person I absolutely agree with you but I think you're making a case for why that bullet should be in there because the last thing we would want is for double schedule or double booked something and have two groups showing up at the same time so what this is saying is that I'm part of the the athletic director's responsibility is to coordinate the schedule so we don't have you no double booking or group showing up at is it only within an hour a lot of time and does our joint use agreement like it first takes that stuff out of the equation and then are tosa is in charge of that or is are in charge of flooding in our you know our other folks. I feel like there's a discussion here about how the lettuce department is run at the high school instead of the job description and I want to be very mindful that for us to continue talking about the job description instead of the now the department is running or the failures or the gaps and to focus on the job description I know that there's sometimes there needs to be examples of why this bullet point needs to be included or not but I just want us to narrow the conversation to the job description please what's divinely what's Difficult about that is that our athletic department is essentially has been one and which is why we are where we're at right now if if that makes any sense and so that's why I want to be sure that to the division that we are having. This is a toaster maybe this need to be somewhere else and that's why I'm asking the question okay so is the question that this these bullet points may need to be in a different job description it's possible but be without looking at it without having like an orchard or like understand having a better understanding of how this is going to be like an environment like a an ecosystem if you will then like I I completely understand the the direction that you're trying to push me and which is why I'm this would have been difficult for me to just email without having like this discussion I think cuz these are bigger than this and I think that it's important for us to have one-on-one conversations about the how certain departments in in facilities are running an and I think that is that as we start the fall semester that we consider bringing our new AP Style these discussions I'm not a piece or new principles so that we have these discussions and there is special attention as new leadership comes on that they can formulate emulate a systems to improve the the the these departments the problem is is that we are at flying this right now because there is a great need and what cabinet and what you what has been conveyed to us earlier tonight is that you know we're trying to make this position not as heavy of a lift I can live with a thing you know what this this particular Judy this particular duty is maybe too much of a heavy lift for this and so we'll we'll figure that out later I can live with that so I should be able to ask the question though in the public because I think the public for the most part was not thinking Peter even things to be thinking about as well like that this is a toaster position like just so that I could support the Atocha position does not require to tosa to spend after-hours monitor hours and hours of activity after school so that point I need to find out how do we cover that but I'm sure that that's not a baby toe so that I know of but it's required he up to date season after season after school for multiple hours to make sure that is Ecuador use and chairs and putting such let me find out how that can work out but the job description here is is a tosa comes up with some extended interaction YouTube do the hours but not every day required to be after school and monitoring that and then it is a heavy lift like this is like to look into a joint use agreements to coordinate with a oh to like make sure that it's Equitable it's one thing if you were to tell me this is just within our our time usage and and that's and that's it and not to have to deal with all of the other people that are using our fields and Jim then I be like worked out but I think that this particular bullet is bigger than what this to supposition is but I might add that some of these are ongoing and some of these are something that you might do once a month or once it's a messy or it just it really it does depend and Ebony Nicholson really took a long time to go through the and identify the necessary duties to to have this position successful so that we could have a successfully running Athletic program I would like to ask for member loaded are you still laying like you're not going to pass this this job description no I got my answers on the six things I am trying to fill a move Beyond got it okay so I feel like at this point I'm going to ask to just focus on the job description and I also want to ask can I call you I'm almost there and so if they could just answer on this particular bullet and I have two more very quick things for them then and instead of having this back and forth and I would be none of it I also want to say that I'm very respectful of you glowing through this so thoroughly as both my kids went through Sports and I saw the challenges in the sports department but also their success right and I want to say that respectfully I think it's important we missed our love go and just stated that the person that will be supervising this tosa has review this and said this these are the tasks that I need and I want you to be considerate of that that that a professional who's going to be supervising day-to-day has said. things I need from this individual because I think that that was very important with mister arlequin just shared with us and I will continue to ask you to please proceed with your time to to go through the job description and thank you for giving me that privilege to to speak on this matter it's just really chilling when we when when that happens I will go back to my question is there something that you can get back to me on about like whether or not this person will be like dealing with joint use a group like how how will that how does that may I pick up I'm trying to think of a non administrative position that basically cornet scheduling Beyond hours and the only thing the only person that I know that it will be a BPA Corning she is. covers and Beyond and you know it's it's so there is a way that that has been done in our district respectfully and and and legally as well what I'm trying to say I don't know how is shifting from a quasi administrative 280 supposition how would I rent pack I do know the need or somebody to monitor the fair used and then scheduling I do not that is a legitimate things sometimes it can take all the way up to eight nine ten in the evening if there's some game that is kids coming home on the bus and all of those things that's why I don't know enough but I I would also support Mr alukonis share is that assistant principal Nicholson had also gone through the process and said this is something that that she could support and supervise while this tosa is doing the Preparatory work and I could use it that way not necessary to be the three person actually I could add with assistant principal to that one as well because you know it it is are these in line with what your vision is in terms of making different position in the same line but third from the bottom articulate with and now that we know what it is dcms I'm guessing it was supposed to be like any school that this child is coming from like is that it was not the mean behind that it would be mainly in orientation incoming students please there's no need for nourishment and that's my last bit of it thank you and I just want to thank board member Laredo for doing the heavy lifting on this but I absolutely share those concerns this position really trains that line between a tostada and an administrator and you know I think when we hire somebody I I know it's flying on on edjoin which means we're flying it out but to the extent we can get out if we could make this kind of a temporary one-year position or something like that and really look at how it's performed at the end of the year to see if it worked as designed is I think that that's worth it because Boosie and hats off to the person who held the position before and did all this stuff but I think the only other thing I want to say it again agree with all of those points and I just when we talked about this person being a teacher record for other classes that raises all kinds of red flags about supervision and somebody signing off on a class that they're not actually saying it's one thing if you're on the field and there's a bunch of people around the field in your watching everybody in there but if you're in an office or your building schedules or something like that and their classes that you're signing off on that's very murky so maybe I just rephrase that there is a need for such a a service at this point I'm not I'm not going to link that with this position I'm just going to say that we do need some creative overlap roster during the students with some special Sports would you like me to quickly view that the amendments well this is the reason why I didn't want you to go through the Amendments because board member loaded Direction on a cover page on job description and I think that that's the reaction and not input into a job description and I wanted to just ask the board to do a straw to see if this is. action that we want HR now to bring a cover letter with the six thing so I see no I don't want to support it but I would to speak a little bit about the details I think that the board has indicated interest in all of these items individually at various times I can't be a hundred percent sure that we had consensus or majority but I assume we probably did because are all very reasonable but I think that the matter of how we get the information and how it improves us at a systems level is a conversation for us to have as a body and I'd be interested in engaging in a more deliberate conversation at a retreat something about how to move forward with Direction on that and I'll be more than happy to give it some more thought as well you mention the title 9 Matrix or data we would data being decide get it I'm not familiar with such a database is available I do know that we have a district person managing all the title 9 but let me double back with Doctor eye and find out what happened in the world would be if you whether that's something that we can accomplish China I also so I think that I would like for us to agendize a discussion about job description and I think we just need a real robusto session of what does it mean to bring this job description I have a lot of questions about discover page does it come at the first reading the, the second you know at the auction level does it like under partnership you know we've heard from our partners say certain things are like I saw her briefly but I didn't realize this is what it was and so I really want us to tease out that partnership and so I think it's it's two board members asking for a cover page and I think we should have Jen dies a discussion about how human resource should proceed job descriptions and we will allow the system superintendent to perhaps think about a researching other districts and then when you are ready with your information. agendas at because I think it's a ballad request but I also want the board to have a thorough discussion and see other districts are doing as an information night well we might need to give direction but yes we can perhaps bring it as information and then agendize it maybe it's a resolution maybe it's you know we need to have a board by law when you talk I don't know just without going to find that direction would it really reminded me of it I meant to make a comment on this before, he's very much similar to the cover page on course approval we're kind of list a couple of things you know what's this information with that information was it 54 just to make sure we kind of cover all the bases on that but but I think that's a good discussion for us to have examples and an end realities it out okay I think I need a boat right are we doing Amendment and I believe board member. I do ask for them in or the I think I thought you did alright then I am open to amend maybe you asked to move it and that's why I was thinking you accept all of these and then I will accept all of these men you like me to read the Amendments please so the first would be after I under a basic functions will practice before teacher at Cooper City high school teacher on special assignment if on the first page representative duties of the 7th 8th and 9th on bullets will be practiced with under the direction of the assistant superintendent principal if you want it not late yet right okay so looking going out to the next page and the representative duties of the 8th bullets I will be prefaced with with with assistant principal and the acid that would be 8 9 10 11 12 to 12 pull it down he prefaced with I with assistant principal coordinates and documents the Equitable use of facilities at cetera and now that we're going to go from the bottom up this time I'm going from the Adam up the fourth bullet that begins with ensures would be prefaced with with assistant principal ensures that Recruitment and hiring process and finally the third bullet up from the bottom that begins with articulates instead of ending with freshman will end with students there's one more beautiful which one is that one more under the page 2 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 a bullet down there so there's a statement with insurers what I said thank you I accept them thank you those in favor what president is in the restroom and I think board member Loretto is vacating please take care of yourself we hope you feel better and we will move to item 14.1 and hear from Staff Force please give me a minute yes please because board president is in the restroom so why don't we just take 2 minutes thank you we just took a break because superintendent requested it so I think we may be waiting for him to return it this time right man we got a little break and our brain like its 11 go to bed like it doesn't recognize what's board meeting night our brain is forgetting that its board meeting night and we can proceed with 14.1 mou or ccusd with the University of Southern California specifically the Keck School of Medicine information from our staff thank you Southern California on Epic study and is inviting Culver City Unified School District to be part of a long-term study it is about serving students your stomach the questions at the right there for the board to review it is going to information to standard to all survey will be anonymous when when it's off like that and we get to volunteer students and staff to be part of this great study I did review this with 25 members of the board about some other intention situation we are going to make sure that it's not going to cause any concern down the line and there's a certain things about consent about stuff we want to make sure that I would stop would not be in any way shape the pumpkin send someone else but I am recommended this is something worth looking into the long-term impact of the so so emotional well-being that can translate the physical manifest into physical illness I understand and it's also good to strengthen a relationship with you that's for medicine can I get a motion and will start work at I support this and have no questions or comments remember that I do agree seems like a virginity and the only I support it and the only thing is that I want for the record Miss Williams if you could please put for the record that I am in no way affiliated with the study I am in public health I did work at the Keck school of medicine for 15 years it's on my LinkedIn account but just want for the record that I am no way affiliated and that I think it's really important for us to remove our staff from consenting that is a process of legal processes that the staff consenting needs to be trained and it's an online training and you need to pass a test and I do not believe that it's in our best interest to have our teachers consenting students in this process if the study wishes to consent our students study must consent our students with staff that has to hire be certification and so therefore I do not support that at all and we must ensure that our stop is not you know I asked to get a certification so that they can they consent or students I don't think it's in our best interest and secondly I think it's really important for all the info I have money that the district will receive which is small amounts that the students create a committee on how that money is going to be spent so becomes a participatory budget for the students who participate but it's $10 per student and so I think it's important for them to come together and create a note this is how we want to spend it there's also government by laws that we need to follow on certain things you can't buy with this incentive money and so we need to make sure that that committee understand that okay so that's all I have to say about that all of those in favor say aye 14.2 14.2 if I'm a a bit longer to address there has been a concern there has been a concern about Contracting out essential workers or essential duty this particular contract me look like we are now yet been getting more contracted workers but is actually not this is a complete what is working with the school district and to provide the district with 20 temporary contracted Personnel however within 60 days after we do the Fannin and staff members at monitor the process within 60 days after the initial placement we have an option of tired the entire 20 position to become a bully so that's that's what the the gist of this particular contract so we don't know the successful or the challenges that might be associated with this new approach but I think we obligated to look at the potential of being able to recruit 20 classified member to support our students with IEP and these at least all the trainees done all of the coronation is done and within 60 days we will be looking at for the first time in many many years adding I'm pleased to serve the needs of our students without farming owls work over and over again and should that be successful. The fan and I will sit down and addressing a long-term commitment with this company and so This Is 40 instruction to support AIDS in the special ed program in the inclusion model and I'm ready to take Washington hoping the board will approve the contract I can move to approve it I will start with Kent I'm excited to see you no formal pipeline for moving from contract to permanent so I'm really supportive Things Remembered so I see when you said that 60 days to converting them I went back and look and I find that line is kind of the middle of the 3rd Chunk on the on the first page total Heroes needed before conversion 60 days I don't see conversion to find anywhere in this contract and and so prior to you saying that I was very concerned because on the second page third from the bottom doesn't non-solicitation and non-competition Clause that says if we hire them we can't hire them until 4 months after airtime near their contracted time has ended without paying a 10% surcharge to the company that's overcharging for months of the school year ends in June and July August September October to be able to hire them so I don't see that that term conversion is find anywhere in here and I have all kinds of little highlights like temp to hire what are they talking about they're going to charge 10% and we can't hire them for 4 months so I what you say is very reassuring but I don't see that reflected in the contract anywhere may I may I jump in is that okay just out today so if you go to the on this the special education instructional aides pipeline specifics it talks about payroll is needed before conversion and that the term but I see that now but I conversion isn't defined anywhere in the contract that conversion means shifting over to District employee or what conversion means in a temp-to-hire program and that's why it's as defined as temp-to-hire that's the entire that's the entire thing right so it's talked about payroll days needed before conversion and that that's what it talked about under terms and conditions and then if you talk if you look under the DCM the design coordination and management it talks about basically everything about getting them hired and moving them into our G so I don't know that it's pacifically defines it but that is the entire point of the program I think I totally get that but I would think something that important would be defined as what I do see to find really well is the non-competition Clause at the end so I am I know I bet that seems like an oversight to me the other concern I have just above that work  about instructor qualifications it says you I will provide instructors that meet the minimum qualifications listed in the attached sow scope of work and then the scope of work doesn't list qualifications where I know the position that we're flying on a joint list the number of qualifications that were kind of required to do you know like a number of credit and things like that and so so they're using our our qualifications so we provide them and they use our qualifications at our job descriptions I have you saying that but I don't see that reflected in the contract and it seems to me for entering in a contract it should specify everything that we wanted to specify not just be kind of what it's understood let me see if I can booking an option let me go back if that's needed doctor Fannin will that be delaying the the deployment of our people if what if we were to go back in the dress some clarification with the tempo higher group University instructions LLC if this were delayed yes yeah we can't start until so I'm sorry I don't want to interrupt your time or member that I don't stir so a previous statement you just said after looking at the job just up the contract I found that this the statement about conversion it's not side because it says by the UI instructor read a little bit before that during the four-month. And then it goes in it says to provide services. the same as or similar to those provided by the you I instructor without Express written consent so we have Express written consent at the top saying that this is a 60-day conversion so that nullifies each right cuz we have Express consent saying that we will convert so because I found that I want to ask the second point that you're making the first one OK Google and payment of One Time Staffing to equal to 10% of the yearly salary so there's a surcharge if you doing that but I might die before conversion conversion to a district employee conversion I just don't think that's clear for contractual language also spoken to several districts who have used this come so this was not just as something I randomly am asking for they have a 96% success rate and placing employees so this is a standard contract that they they use and they have given so if we need anything else to add we can but I spoke to one director who use them for 4 years and brought them with another District so they have been vetted I have vetted them thoroughly with multiple people so I understand some of the concerns that you're raising but I also have gotten multiple background checks on them multiple different people in multiple different districts and I can provide those to you if you would like me to all right so then just on your Assurance they're converting to District employees 60 payroll days after they begin correct I mean I I think I'm giving you that but it's not just my insurance it's what they're doing it's it's the terms of their contract that I was no them so I can only do it through you do so you are you're assuring that 60 payroll in the 61st day they convert to District employees and there's no 10% surcharge at that point no there's no charge now okay and they will meet all the requirements of the special ed positions that were flying about having 48 semester units and and all that kind of thing but we still are going to interview them right there still helping us to all of the all of the requirement they're going to help us meet all of the regular interview requirements they're just going to recruit them for us yes all right one suggestion would be that that maybe we have those three Amendment to the contract doctor Fannin maybe you can ask them if they can verify these items on the contract because I think it's important for us to go through so we can approve this with these amendments right and a because I think it's very important for our labor Partners to know that it's our most at the most important priority for us is for all of these a to become our staff if there qualify I am meeting the needs of our students 100% And they would still have to submit on edjoin they would still have to go through an interview process all of that I also sent a Mini Cooper send that I would like to be answered one particular question is the conversion is going to happen but how do we know that this Aid was a value so that the conversion occurs with those AIDs that are effective in the classroom because when board member going to do and I did our School site visit it was clear that we have AIDs that are not effective in the classroom and that because they're not effective in the classroom they're not supporting the teachers and they're not supporting student and to me that is one of the most important things about this particular job description or this particular pipeline so I'd like to get responses to my email that I sent you the questions and I would like for the can't get the motion or who motion is to support the amendment I absolutely can support the Amendments if I moved it I did so I can move it as a message alright thank you so much for digging deep into this contract all of those in favor say aye 14.3 stop 14.3 14.3 we have a member of the special ed program went to a training out-of-state conference and at this point we're asking for the board to approve out-of-state conference attendance are we can reimburse the person it should stitches stay by the vacation to ratify approved because the confidence already happened in May so this is a gratification can I get a motion with that amendment I can move to approve so the district special education bcba conference reimbursement to Jordan yes a second I have no, thank you. I do so thank you for that that no doubt of ratifying and I think that's one that we come up against fairly often the after-the-fact stuff needs to be ratify but I do have some process questions on this one and I think it Harkens back to some of the conversations that board member Loretta was having its 2500. where is for an out-of-state conference and we're getting it after the fact I also have a couple of concerns because the conference was May 26th to 30th but if you scroll down it wasn't approved by the immediate supervisor until June 7th after the conference and then it was approved by I can't read the name cuz it's all bubbled in somebody else on June 26th it was finally approved by expressing superintendent on on June 30th so it doesn't even appear this was approved by supervisors until after the conference that's not the normal process that this should follow is it it is not and it is up to this is on my list of address because it put the district in a very legal vulnerable spot and so let me just it has been a an accepted practice snow district for a long long time and as much as we trying to push it back we need to keep on pushing back until this is no longer the case right now I am struggling trying to associate some of these conferences only the year and is out of state so if we were to push back on the boat on their procedural paperwork deadline thing then we miss out 40 years right let me let me look into it but I agree this is this is something that is always putting The District in a very awkward and dangerous situation because my experience with this type of thing as one gets your conference approved in advance and then one submits your expenses afterwards which might or might not need to get up pooped again but the approval is ahead of time and I noticed on that first received the registration was back in January and so how is somebody registering for a conference it doesn't get approved until June I I would like to say something unkind but I will have to say something accurate like I said this has been an accepted practice that is hiring not recommended and dumb we will keep on addressing this and put a hard stop to it but I need time to work with my entire District staff on this one night thank you so anything for lunch all those in favor say aye aye aye 16.2 decoration and need for fully qualified educator presentation please plan a is always to hire fully if I fully credentialed teacher but in the absence of a being able to because of a shortage or because of the type of on Prudential that some positions require some positions are harder to fill such as high-level math high-level science special education dual language and so this is this is a very common document for districts to complete and the positions listed are harder to fill that doesn't mean that we won't fill. but it allows us to use tools that that both the CTC and laco authorized are just in case we can't feel any of the positions basically an emergency I'm contract usual those are limited for one year and then you have to be renewed but we've listed the positions that are more difficult to sell in addition to that the last page page 44 identifies District internships and we started doing a few of those that universities that we have agreements with are also listed on the last page and saw this authorizes those internship agreements as well so I'm requesting approval for this declaration Declaration of need. can I get a motion yeah I'll just add that we see this annually right I think yeah I know that but yeah and that the nun where is standard and then I've never seen it change we've always requested approval for a just in case just in case every year for this exact amount in the same exact you can go back and look every years is me yes and we never almost never used the vast majority of them correct may I take this opportunity to share a clarification there's a statement from the Committee Member about why we looking at 25 people not I maybe we can pay our teachers enough and songs with that was Express tonight this is not that we are going to have 25 people not qualify and we're not paying our teachers and this is just a procedural step for the board to play approved with CTC consent so that in the future should we need a position that is not fully credential in a hard to build spot you have given us permission to bring that in and then we still have to come to the board with the name of that individual and having the board approved one by one by one of those teachers we need to bring in so this doesn't mean what some members of the public thought that an invitation to that they have to have fulfilled Asser number of units University units in order to qualify for this yeah thank you yeah thank you very much for that explanation I didn't realize that this was a laying the possibly requesting emergency status for folks in the future if we have to still with that I sent over a listen it makes sense why it's not necessarily a one-to-one match with edjoin right for example a joint currently flying at any Japanese language teachers are at because we're fully filled with that position but if somebody resign then we have the ability in case we have difficulty recruiting that makes a lot of sense all right I want to ask for member can't how many public comments we had on 16.2 I was going to report that we had one but the superintendent refer to it in the comments so I got it okay okay so all those in favor say aye 17.1 board corner do we have anything that we are interested in sharing well we have linked maybe we should share according to the lengthy discussions I mean we can share the exciting news about the assistant super but the lengthy discussions were around atosa I don't know if that's appropriate for board Cornell maybe they were interested now you recommend bored to recognise the contribution of the teachers who has passed away recently When Miss along mentioned that doing his comment to us absolutely you did but you did put a piece and cover Pride this would be additional but is that you're aboard to recognize them that teacher all right like that I would like to make a suggestion I actually like the 22 assistant superintendent on there I think our community should find that out and the second suggestion I think that I've been taking an opportunity to utilize the four corner as educational like little paragraphs that we submit to the community and so I think an educational piece around like the process of approving job descriptions be I feel like our community felt that we make decisions and closed session about hiring when really what we are reviewing is Personnel issues dismissal and that we may discuss a new hire but we so in public a new hire and I want to see if the board is okay for us to do an educational piece of how we move a job description from concession to concession for approval and thought it might be a short like a paragraph short paragraph about that process and we'll pass it by you Mr Buckland look up and I can I get a a German and memory of our teacher Howard Baker I will move to adjourn in memory of our lungs I'm teacher and substitute Howard Sager and I hope that you have a great rest of your 7 Minutes of this evening thank you thank you everybody I thought that cuz he steered it digitally
