Asian people come here knowing that I'm going to listen to not going to a nasty email going after them criticizing them is okay being and rolling up your eyes or your bottom language anything like

to do everything else first time a couple other things we did after I just come through again please and I wanted to come in and out a little bit because like every campaign they were things for some supporters who said negative things there were some things with low turnout and so forth but I wanted to point out that we also had a campaign with some good ideas brought forward in with a good discussion in the community and some people who got involved to Heaven involved before and I will carry that forward the people who were thinking about this and we're involved in the campaign over not involving the campaign but saw what was going on we'll recognize it as a stay involved in the community you know not disappear and never be seen again until the next election but show up to the school board meetings Wilkie what's going on stop at the workshops for the bond or the whatever that the sustainability committee are all the things that give people involved in our schools I also before I forget one of point out that there's a stem starts festival at West LA College on Friday and Saturday and a lot of cool stuff going on students there on Friday and general public on Saturday and be there with NASA and JPL for part of that too open doing is talk about or it is because everybody already said all these great things and talked about your service then I could Echo pretty much all of those comments and then talk about how it's been great working with you on the board I'm not going to try and top all that in Fallout say that instead want to do is ask you for more so I know you're leaving the school board and now you don't have to show up but I also want to point out that you bring your perspective that's pretty rare and we have it's nice to see we've gotten multiple former School Board I members in the audience but that's also pretty rare and you both have contributed a lot to the district and the price for contributing lot people always want you to do work I'd like to ask you to pay attention and see what's going on in the district as I know you will and comment tell us about it and we could still use your advice and your experience and we wisdom so instead of saying how wonderful you are I'll just ask you for more okay I'll do my other stuff first I did attend the stem how Prince with what's your coffee and a large number of people I was there to try to get information about  things that would help us the best design so I attended anything that had to do with side flaps how to make the facility the room work big makerspaces are spray Fontana. so I got some good ideas well I know that some soon as familiar going and some students from the middle schooler going to the stuff starts festival and it's open all day so Saturday it looks like a great Festival lots of lots of science-oriented organizations with activities and programs for the kids coach go so they know I was honored to be invited to be the keynote speaker at that parent conference at Culver City Middle School last week and just if you're curious I thought you're asking me to speak about how to help your child be successful in middle school and I focused on teaching your child resilience an organizational skills because I think those are the two most important things that need to come out of middle school cuz I think you need to go into high school with those organizational skills study skills all figured out you don't have time to learn that the high school have to have it when you get there right a lot of people looked at me and didn't like that I said that but I think one of the most important things you have to learn to Middle School in what to do when things don't go well when you don't do well on the test me don't did you use it as a springboard for future success so yes when I said that awful f word some of the parents got upset with me but I Courtney blessing also the OC  I'll just going to say the election of congratulations to our new board members

our two of them were same thing Ice Cube this is a historic occasion play football necessary Love lyrics Chastity fruit percent 10.2 I'm ready if you are in the same rate so are you as you may know the state recently allocated Monies to local school districts around educator and back of desk in the front business in the form of a block we are receiving / 5 $2,000 be able to describe it this year and over the next two years to improve educator effectiveness an excellent week we kind of have some broad Strokes of a deal we can can use it a picnic we can use this money for teachers and administrators or paraprofessional four main areas that we can use on the funding for and so what we've kind of outline are are some of the areas that we are either looking into our house how to send the funds when it is first area or coloring does induction plus so we know we've had a Arctic O'Reilly induction and the last couple of years it's been very sell weave where the number of the teachers we have we actually are our had to add two to the team and and it's not let perhaps provide enough support for all of our new teachers the only thing we've been able to provide is the support for the the do teachers that by under induction so what are the things that were hoping to do is actually looking and I can not talk and it also exclude special teachers so for some reason when bits and was initially design special education was not included in it is very few districts that are that actually are are providing it and so we're looking into the possibility a local school district of head really and is it written that was it was denied I'm at we're following that legislature and that and that appeal process may be paid on on on what where you think you successfully currently our special education teachers have to go outside of the district pay for their their their credentials looking at witness funds one of our intentions is to be able to look to expand the program in include all of our unqualified teachers in our district including special at we also would like to to look into how we can expand offerings for our new teachers which was already fully credentialed but are still need a car seat and so being able to provide you know the them opportunities for some of our after-school sessions some of our classroom management sessions perhaps working with is wild hurt and and our Union around maybe bringing them back earlier a few days so we can provide some of the professional development to them and to pull them out of the classroom so we're looking at the possibilities of of how we can expand for all of our teachers and as well as administrative professional to help what can we do to support a new administrator II area had gone away and categorical programming back in 2008 and it's it's around coaching and mentoring with specific of improvement of instruction of teachers and maybe those also included that include teachers that have been identified as I'm leaving in prevent  also one of the things that so this is kind of lump together as coaching those that they need Improvement husband has been the idea of a special education 207  throughout session to do the do the last year we've we've the intensity of many of our cases has increased and our program specialist I'm very hard at at creating that programmatic out here but it doesn't provide them the time to get into the classroom construction is happening with our students and giving our teachers that and so what we're one of our ideas is that when does special education tells that if we're able to do the induction with the special ed teacher we're pretty sure that that requirement of including Special A Goshen in in adoption would require a credential special ed teacher to provide a lot of those services to those new teachers so so it's kind of I could have special attosecond both sides that it was that the hope is to the day would provide a dual role well and be able to get inside the classrooms we also the number of interns or long-term substitutes filling those positions long-term substitutes do not qualify for induction tell me those are in our special ed Fields this you heard Leslie Lockhart talk about being that the part possible partnership with you I see around that insurance because it's I need area special education support here is that as a kind of a reoccurring theme throughout throughout of the funding that set for hoping to be able to eat a license and then and also this purposeful professional development the stronger better that you heard from Kim Adela Colorado tonight we've been doing it since it's going so well and now we need to make sure we're getting into the classroom we're helping in the in the coaching Realm according what they've already been trying to do and help them get get get even stronger and better at that  the third area really doing more of what we've been doing and this is professional development around on core standards in this is kind of like a lot of dis money is around part two of the core money they gave us and Soto right now we have an immediate need been doing a lot now  no allotted language arts indicate level and so there's no next for needing to tackle secondary science and so we have an immediate need to work with and a plan and design ready to go if you approve of the funding  and an as well as that not this year but we do need a roll out of his limitations of the Next Generation science standards in elementary school and we do have social studies new framework coming Allen and English language arts adoption support coming within the next couple of years  Eminem I leave is coaching and mentoring support for Effective teaching and learning so how do we improve instruction and and this is really continuation of the work we're doing in our sights of contempt a little bit tonight about it to Cicero I was so pleased and talking to both Scotland how and Chris Tue at at love Iona and so pleased with their leadership of what they're doing and take role as a coach at their site it's go if it's is exceeding my expectations that I think the not for the first time but it fruition yesterday and having a conversation with them that really good the training that they've received over the last couple of years to Cubs in and through our RC partnership has been that they're very confident effective people that teachers are reaching out to it so that you know that a little anecdotal but where okay. Went to Sunday to be able to be able to continue that program and expand it I'm so fat on our initial plans we have said for the third year which is is Christianity so right now but they would be on the classroom to support for a year but then that funding that we've kind of put into the El Cap with me then for Morganton El Marino Spanish Immersion next year so when this this funding may be able to keep Christian the two sides  supporting when how that becomes even stronger better and more sustainable yet expand that at Farragut and it El Reno Spanish language reason not at all recline and Japanese immersion just for people who may be watching is that they're just in your one of their cooks and implementation so they will be getting full support cousin at the art of teaching next year already as well and and also possible expansion of our English language arts intervention support currently. one person is all Andhra she's trained I think nine of the last 11 days on 7th and so when she's training all day then that coaching support Shawty want to get into the into that classroom she's so in demand that that she's she's added more and more training days and so we're looking into the how do you grow other leaders in some strategic kind of waiting to provide provide some additional coaching support for the teachers there there which is the which of the nice thing so those are the four areas that we are required to spend any of our funding so what we will be asking you to consider for approval tonight if if a is having a general be similar to what we did with common core funding call Josiah divided the money into you see the $4 around to the four areas that I spoke to with the smaller. Or not around the corner standard support because there is a huge commitment already within our elk app that supports topknot work and that content we also received money what did you call him dr. Mike yes doctor yes my doctor yes has no part of the additional monies we received in funding above the the local control funding formula last year one time mandated cost money is the educational services sign I think a quarter of a million dollars that was satisfied for that so that that one air is a little lower because we we really have taken a lot of that that funding are consideration and then at the end is that coaching support that we need that we really do think is is critical to the sustainability of the any questions just one home when you were going over this lucky about the special ed support it sounded like there were some things where is clearly something we think is a good idea and it's a question as to the categorical funding covers in I want to make sure that we're not letting putting the cart before the horse the categorical fun doesn't cover it but we think it's worth doing then we should be paid for it ourselves out of the general fund to make sure it gets done to show absolutely allows for it this absolutely reduction it requires authorization because credentialing body for the State of California so cruelly we are not licensed  conduction hunting for special education what we're looking into as hell we can rewrite our our contract with the state so that were allowing include of special education these mind allow us to get approved then these monies allow us I think we're carbless we could lick it look into other cities around hoping the financial part of getting having them get their credential but still planning on that support even if it wouldn't be if that thanks thank you Doctor play may I get a motion to what is 13.1 think of what you know where can I do an early one for Ready Set may I get a motion to approve 13.1 the educator Effectiveness blog brand spending all those in favor motion carries  13.2 may I have a motion who's the second reading churches close  14.2 second reading and approval of new board policy and if it is graded regulation it's the one from Cracker Barrel 61732 struction education of children of military families may I get emotional is there any discussion all those in favor  K we are Pawns 14.1  can get a motion to reject this claim cell phone  second it was there any discussion all those in favor motion carriage 14.15 point one  cruel is recommended for the memorandum of understanding between Ace and CC us regarding the reclassification of positions within the instructional assistant found I have a motion some of second is there any discussion yeah thanks for all the hard work  yes thank you girl I'm freaking explaining us about it oppose motion carries okay I'm at 15.2 second reading and approval of her vitamin plane regulation 4119 Point 11 sexual harassment and emotional there any discussions call Dustin Taylor post Ocean Terrace Ford stock valuation is falling to me if we study the agenda part of the meeting and clarify questions in advance I think that we participate in the meeting with no one dominating what we are all we listen to Tennessee spring spoke of lading conversation yesterday we get if we treat each other with respect and courtesy yes  did we continue to an atmosphere of trust and openness certainly dad  did we focus on governance rather than operations during presentations and discussions  we do Sidetrack well some people would say we had a few sidetracks the same things that they were all in good humor and we're happy we did it was their information provided in a manner that made him usually understandable yes or administrative group is phenomenal and yes the agenda was well-planned focus on stores with that can I get a motion to adjourn please don't we have going on the meeting were supposed to announce publicly that it is going to be hell in December, we already done your meeting have you already told we're skipping with meeting may I have a motion to enter Shirley Shirley I'm serious if that's where you can hook up Nickelodeon everybody can I get a motion to approve better. all those in favor of something I shouldn't care
