Yeah, sure. Um, we watched a video. It kind of highlighted, it's it's kind of alarming. It's making um its way around social media and whatnot about uh the use of meta glasses and how you can quickly write software to take pictures of people and things and learn, you know, personal details. the same way you could technically search somebody that you know their name, but here it just takes your picture, finds your picture, finds your Instagram, whatever. Um, and so I think our students need to learn how to use those appropriately, but we're not going to permit them at the high school level just uh, you know, out out of caution until we know more about them. The other thing that we examined was deep fakes, which is taking an individual's face in her name or voice, excuse me, and uh basically, you know, creating a fake video where it looks like they're saying and doing things that they aren't actually saying and doing.
Across our school site, staffs are working on master schedules, holding capstone showcases, and welcoming families to openhouse events. We want to take a moment to acknowledge and thank our dedicated site personnel for their hard work and thoughtful planning that make these meaningful student experiences possible. LCAP season is in full swing and we look forward to our final convening of the year on April 24th. This past Saturday, all AUHSD schools came together to showcase innovation, creativity, and talent at the district's STEM Palooa held at Magnolia High School. From robotics and engineering displays to visual arts, culinary creations and studentled science experiences experiencements, our students had the opportunity to shine in front of families, community members and industry partners. It was a vibrant celebration of 21st century learning and the power of student voice with every school demonstrating the incredible work happening across our district. At Laera High School, a strong collegegoing culture is being cultivated by ensuring that every class visits at least one college campus annually.
And as always, Maroon and Gray lead the way. Thank you, Hannah. Apple Valley High Eden. [Applause] Thank you. Good evening members of of the board and attendees. I'm Piola, Aba Valley High School's line president, and today I will share with you what our students and staff have been accomplishing lately and our plans for this month. Our athletes have been working and doing exceedingly well. The girls softball team has been doing so good and just had their lead games against Oak Hills and Sorrano. And the girls just had a game at Hespero High School on Tuesday. And the boys tennis won against Otana High School, beating them with 13 to 5. Our Apple Valley Golf Club shot 395, which I also don't know any much about like golf, so if this sounds wrong, I'm sorry, but they earned second place at the Homer Thompson Classic at Victoria Club.
The board bears no responsibility, nor will it be liable for any comments made by members of the public. Members of the public should consider their comments in light of the legal rights of those affected or identified in their comments and be aware that they are legally responsible and liable for their comments. Anyone on virtual? There is no one in virtual. I do have to apologize. There were two people that did attempt to log in during Mrs. Kusvich's presentation, but I think they were either timed out or whatever. So, I do apologize if they want to dial in, try to dial in again. Okay, why don't we keep it open for now and we start with the people that are here and then we'll see if they come back on. Uh, anyone like to approach the uh table at this point uh for some comments? Welcome.
Going to make sure we don't have to launch two at the same time. Um, and also can keep a pattern consistent. Imagine it gives the kids then an opportunity. Well, I can take this trip next year or in two years. So, they can kind of gauge which one would be their preference either financially or just which is better interest. Absolutely. We had so many students uh come up to me after we launched our uh mentoring poster for 2026 saying like I'm a senior. I can't go with you. Can I come back? Sorry. Yeah. The excitement is definitely definitely here. Well, if they failed, couldn't they just I'm sure graduation [Music] rate big jump because my oldest went on one of probably one of the earliest Mr. Lucas, it was Italy and Greece 12 14 years ago and I think there were eight kids and and you know so that was which was exciting and was an amazing opportunity and and you know but now we have 80.
The opposite. These are dimminimous. We we aren't as concerned. We still need you to tell us about them because I I think we're we're going to miss something if we're doing it your way. I'm sure of it. I'm I'm good with going your way as long as like let's we have So they said like examples were if you want to move where the fire hydrant I'm giving real examples of people said right because you probably have to coordinate that with someone else in town but we aren't going to care. Um, I think generally like the water sewer because I assume they did not write this all down that that's probably to do a change of where your water sewer you probably have to work with another department. They were they were pretty minimal. The lists were short. Can we put can you send that to the board?
Good evening everyone. You have in your packets the monthly report as of for April 2025. Um I'll walk through again the highlights that we have now as we continue especially a hard push on end of the year review of encumbrances and purchase orders. And you have a summary as to what it is that we're looking at for a balance to cover any other end ofear expenses that are not necessarily encumbered as of right now. Uh just as an FYI, for example, we had a meeting with special education director Messing. Uh there are going to be coming down the road some special education expenditures primarily in the area of equipment and materials that he needs to purchase in order for us to maintain what's called our maintenance of effort. So those are going to be forthcoming that are not necessarily reflected in here as of right now.
So the power of technology is important for our students to learn about but it's also uh important that we're u judicious in how we permit these things. So we did indicate in the policy that you know creating somebody you know deep fakes about somebody else is also not permitted. Um we also had uh two other policies that were involved in a second reading. Uh one of which we have just tabled completely uh on the advice of council and that was the uh regarding undocumented students and we also put a school climate on hold per the lawyer. Um, and if anyone is interested, our policy on sexual harassment, Title 9, has reverted back to what it was previously. So, uh, we had adopted a new sexual Title 9 policy, uh, under President Biden that is now reverted back to what it was prior in the during the Trump administration.
This week, the freshman class visited Cal State Long Beach, completing this year's series of college field trips, which also included Fullerton College for the seniors, UCI for the juniors, and UC USC for sophomores. On April 2nd, Laera hosted a vibrant open house in international night celebrating student learning and cultural diversity. Savannah High School recently launched its first ever Rebel Talks on Saturday, March 15th with outstanding success. 13 alumni returned to campus to share their journeys, offering insight and encouragement on their high school success, college readiness, and career pathways. Culinary arts students prepared and served delicious breakfast, showcas showcasing their skills and adding a warm touch to the event. It was a meaningful day of connection and inspiration. Western High School had the honor of hosting 144 students from Tokyo, Japan, their largest visiting group to date. This meaningful cross-curricular experience was shared between the guest and Western's level three and four Japanese language students, creating an opportunity for connection, learning, and cultural exchange.
Brody Ernest led the team with a even par 72 and Brady Fonville shot at 75, Carson Hamilton 78, Kaden Atkins 80, Trisha Patel 90, Blake Yon at 83. The boys baseball team had a game on Tuesday against Toronto High School and the golf tea off against Sultana at Ashwood Golf Course on Tuesday. Our swim team just had a meet today at Silverado and I do have the scores. Um, I think our boys varsity placed second and then the girls placed third. And I literally just came from that meet. So that's why I look like I swam a mile. I did. So, but our team did amazing. And our swim has been getting a lot of CIF consideration times and almost every swimmer has dropped so much time on their events and we are so proud of our student athletes and how far they have come.
Had to beat everybody to it. My kids are wreaking havoc in the stairwell. Thank you. You have somebody. You do have somebody back, Mr. Rose. But but you No, but you got kids in the hallway. So, go ahead. Oh, sorry. Thank you. You have the floor. Good evening, members of the board of ed in the Clifton community. My name is Diana Farcus. I am a student assistance coordinator from Woodro Wilson Middle School. I'd like to take a moment to personally invite you to our mind music movement festival on Saturday, May 3rd from 10:00 a.m. to 2 pm. Last year's event was our first time running this type of event and it was such a success. There were over a hundred people who attended and we were able to raise $2,500 for the Superintendent Scholarship Fund and Sandy Hook Promise. The feedback we received from students, families, and staff were overwhelmingly positive.
Yeah. So I mean that's so exciting. That's so exciting. Great. There are benefits cost and benefits to small groups versus large groups for sure. All right. Any other discussion? I move approval of this project. I second. All in favor? I thank you. Thank you. All right. Next is to consider the CHS students. Oh. Um one last second change. I would recommend approval of the CHS presented. Is there a second? Second. All in favor? I. Okay. At least that was the middle school handbook. Yeah. Uh I recommend approval uh as presented. My only suggestion is the um I don't have any issues on substance but the the yellow font for all the headings burned holes in the reds of my eyes. Uh, if that could be changed to match the official board approved color scheme of the main, that would be my preference. I'm not putting that in the motion.
I feel like we should write it out if it's care about I mean I I didn't put more effort until people sort of agreed with the methodology or even wanted to do it. But it I would say we we should say um dimminimous changes what we consider I think I don't personally see why they wouldn't all come in front of the board because we can I think this is your uh document from before um and I probably didn't put details of that part was more process but it was a list the minimum changes may be approved for such changes included but not limited to a total number of parking spaces parking space size and alignment drainage surface storm water curb opening dimensions and locations provided such opening has been approved by the highway department. Removal of underground storage tanks and underground utilities. Minor changes to water sewer.
So that balance that you see at the end will be reduced by those purchases as well. Um, I can answer any questions you might have on the report. Uh, and then I can go through there was another chart that I included in there for information purposes as well. Member Goodwin, did you I just have some questions about revolving accounts, Andy. Yes. I'm hoping you can answer those for us. Um, one of the things, um, can you tell me how much currently is in circuit breaker? Uh, that is an interesting question because I'm, uh, we do have, there is an error on a circuit breaker revenue. Uh, the town has posted two receipts of $317,213 has been posted twice. So, that needs to be reversed out. We've been in touch with them regarding that. So, if you give me a second, I will tell you once I back that out uh how much is in there.
questions from board members. Mr. Gribble, some chatty tonight. Um I just wanted to comment on um the electronic devices. Uh we did have a discussion about at the high school level how I think we discussed this before how we're more airing on the side of personal responsibility instead of banning. Uh in case any anyone was concerned and or wanted to ban that's the direction we're heading, right? I think that's fair to say, right? Is there any consideration just because you brought up the AI um example that we would possibly do two separate policies, Dr. Solen, in that we do a use device usage and then a complete AI policy in and of itself? Yeah, I think that's a good question about uh the AI piece and it's evolving so fast that uh the law hasn't even gotten there yet. Um and so uh we're conscious of that.
A special thank you to Mr. Joe Aihara, the Japanese world language teacher who led this effort in collaboration with a dedicated team. Together, they created a rich and engaging experience for all. Western is proud to the to continue building global connections at Cypress High School. The byianual every 15 minutes program was held this week in partnership with parents, community leaders, the city of Cypress, Cypress Police Department, CHP, OC Courts, the Coroner's Office, Morg, and Forest Lawn. This powerful and emotional program provides juniors and seniors with a sobering look at the consequences of impaired and distracted driving. preparing promoting an awareness, accountability, and empathy that can truly save lives. In closing, thank you for your continued support for our schools and our remarkable students. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you all for your reports this evening. Next, we have a parent teacher student association. Anybody from a PTA?
And I want to thank our camp and yearbook students for capturing epic pictures and videos of our sports. And for our CTE pathways and elective, this month has been filled with so many things. On March 5th, we had an AVHS college and career fair or CTE and other programs with different careers like the Air Force, the Navy, um different companies um showcase their organization. And on March 10th and 11th, we welcome eighth graders to join us for a tour of our school. and show them what our CTA programs and electives are and to show what these future Sunundevils might want to pursue when coming in next year. The following day, we had an elective day in the gym for the current Sunundevils who are looking to get more involved in school. And that night, we did have a high school awareness night where our administrations and counselors talk to the eighth graders and families about what to expect when coming into school as a Sunundevil and a freshman.
And because of that, we're excited to expand this year's event to the entire Clifton community. This district-wide celebration will feature live music performances, a wellness fair, games, food, fa face painting, a photo booth, door prizes, and plenty of activities for all ages. We're inviting students, families, staff, and community members to come together for a day of connection and fun, all while supporting three incredible causes. Clifton's Music Angels, the Superintendent Scholarship Fund, and the Mental Health Association in Payic County. Tickets are based on suggested donations. $3 for students, $8 for adults, $15 for families of four or more. But of course, it's pay what you can, and everyone is welcome. We hope you'll join us in making this year's event even bigger and better. Breaking the stigma surrounding mental health, creating lasting memories, and supporting these important important causes. Thank you, and we look forward to seeing you at the festival.
I move to approve as it's submitted, but I strongly uh hope that they will change this. The heat of a thousand sons yellow official colors, right? Official color. Okay. All right. I would second it. All right. All in favor? Hi, Mr. CHS. Okay, Virtual Academy. Um, did a few changes, had some good interaction back and forth, and I move to approve whatever the final piece looks like that I've not seen based on the changes that we The yellow. Yeah, the yellow looks fine on that one. Yeah, we have this conversation over these colors a lot. what it looks like on a screen, what it looks like painted on drywall, it looks like painted on metal. What was the joke when Wes standardized their reds? They did a survey and there were like 78 different reds being used on campus and they standardized them several years ago.
Changes in hydrant location, site building elevation, topography changes, changes in walkways and screening rubbish collection areas. I mean, this seems like a good list to me. These are the kind of things the public tends to be upset about if suddenly but those are the ones that they're saying are dimminimous and they don't they didn't say they don't have to come back to the board. It depends what town but um so yeah I don't I don't think our board Yeah, but it says we might approve these changes to a previously approved PLA plan. We might approve changes to this. You have to come back. Okay. Right. Yeah. I took it to mean that these things may be approved. That's how I'm reading it. May Am I misreading it? Yeah, because they said I think so. Um there so um the dimmin changes may be approved. Okay.
