And this amount includes a check for $180,000 to be used for staff support and outofclassroom enrichment. um things like staff stipens for clubs, staff support of the Lego labs, art and science assemblies, and bus transportation for field trips. And while these checks were delivered to
005the district today, we're going to wait until our August meeting to do our formal presentation of our big check um and our sponsor recognition when everyone's there in person and we can take photos. Um, I wanted to just report some of the things that we were able to fund this year in our schools. Um, we gave $25,000 in musical instruments for our four large middle schools. We funded the district middle school athletics program, a best buddies program support for Burell, Bowitch, and Foster City Elementary. staffing for our Lego labs in each elementary school. Um the career discovery program for fourth and fifth grade classes, arts assemblies, stipens for teachers to run middle school clubs. Uh 50 camp Galileo uh summer camp scholarships for selected underserved students at every school. Um, we matched the 2024 to
00625 SMEA teacher grants and we funded special education field trips and we did a school supply drive for our five title title one elementary schools. So, I wanted to report that out since the checks got delivered today and we'll do address it a little bit more in our August meeting, but thank you all for your partnership this year. Thank you, Karina. Uh, any committee reports? Um, I'll just do a quick uh summary. We over the last um month or two have had some meetings of the um workforce housing committee and um I think we um I wasn't able to go to this but the the committee went to visit the the NLES site and I think we're also going to be doing um possibly some further site visits later in the next like 30 to
00760 days or I think 60 days. So, um, really excite really exciting and, um, we'll have more information as we go along. I have to quickly add to that. Um, I was able to visit the null site, uh, with a few of the staff member and some of the other uh, committee members. And what a site. It's definitely a builder's dream. And we're really excited uh, that site was chosen to um, consider housing to be built. It's the perfect neighborhood. Um the perfect location. Um we're really excited about that project. Thank you. Anyone else? All right. PTA Council reports. Is there is that okay? All right. Uh We'll move to um updates from employee groups. S MFCA. Do we have anyone online? Not tonight. Okay. How about uh CSA? All right. Uh everyone's on break.

Oh, you do? Okay. And that's uh uh CSEA. Yes, ma'am. Okay. Yes, ma'am. All right. Thank you. I'm so glad that it's all yours. Somebody's here besides us. Oh my goodness. Okay. Well, good evening trustees and superintendent ooen, executive staff, and guests. Uh guest for those who may be it looks a little empty in there tonight. Um for those who may be attending for the first time tonight, my name is Brienne Bishop. I'm here on behalf of the CSEA Chapter 411, which is the union serving the classified staff members of our district. Uh, as the board is
009likely aware, we've reached an agreement with the district regarding our 202526 salary and benefits reopener. We are grateful to have reached a salary agreement that works for our members. Uh we are also grateful that the district will begin participating in the classified school employee summer assistance program in the future which will hopefully get some money uh a little bit more money into uh the pockets of our 10 and 11 month employees courtesy of the state of California. Uh in addition, we've agreed to join the committee to explore benefit options uh with the district and we are very hopeful that this will open doors regarding district funded dependent health care our family members deserve access to the same quality health care uh as we employees enjoy and at an affordable price. Um, we are so pleased
010that the district is taking steps to make uh this possible. Um, I apologize we'll not be able to stay on for our agenda items further down on the agenda, but we did want to be sure to thank the district's negotiation team again uh for working uh so well with us. there was a whole lot of back and forth uh this on this one and we just wanted to make sure they know that we are very we very much appreciate their collaboration and the relationship that we have uh that we have with them and with that we wish everyone a restful and rejuvenating summer break for those of you who get to be off for the summer. That's all I've got. Thank you. Thank you, Miss Bishop. Uh, is there anyone online for SMEA by any
011chance? All right, we will move to um announcements and we will um hear this uh superintendent report. Superintendent OOA. Thank you, board president. Appreciate it very much. Can you all hear me? All right. Thank you so much. Um, definitely end of the year. um feeling at this board meeting in terms of uh you know just the work and and the planning and all of the you know just the many many steps that go into completing a successful school year. I want to give congratulations to our partners at CSEA. Um our our president Alicia Aragon, her team. I really want to say thank you to our team um John Cosmos and Stephanie Fermeni and Patrick Gaffne. It's just a really wonderful um you know job that you all did together and really showing a lot of
012respect and a lot of teamwork. Um I also want to call attention to some pretty important work that's happening out on our campuses. We have something like 19 or 20 different construction projects happening right now and it is really beautiful work. It is really complicated work. Uh it would not be possible without the generosity of our voters. So to every voter in the Sanato Foster City School District boundaries, thank you so much uh for your continued support. Um, as a district, I feel really strongly that we're delivering some beautiful campuses that are going to make uh the educational programs in our districts really shine. Um, and that's because of the generosity of our voters. Uh, and we have another big initiative on our hands and that's um looking forward to, you know, our next set
013of building plans in the school district to include things like updating all of our our classrooms across the district. Um and also workforce housing as as uh board vice president Tren pointed out. So definitely a time for reflection on on a really positive school year, but also a time to really celebrate the things that are going on um on the construction site in the district. And then the third and last is we'll be sending out uh to members of our community some communications here in the next week inviting folks to volunteer to serve on our next strategic plan process. Uh as the board is aware, we approved at our last schoolboard meeting a contract with the Bayed Fund to help facilitate a visioning process and a community strategic plan process in the next year. And
014it's going to be different than our last strategic plan in that we plan to uh increase membership from last time we had about 30 members. This time close to 50 members. So the team will be be much larger. Uh and it'll be because we invite more families and we invite more students to participate. So we're really really excited about that. Um and we'll have some invitations going out. I I anticipate getting a couple hundred people um volunteering to um participate and at the same time in order to have a really representative group um on the the strategic plan committee. Um you know, we're going to have to pick and choose from different folks so that we make sure we have representation from our schools and from our communities. Um, but it's a really exciting time
015to be doing that work and I look forward to sending that information out uh to members of our community in the weeks ahead. So, thank you. Thank you. All right, we will move to um the proposed consent agenda. Um, all items on the consent agenda are considered by the board to be routine and will be enacted by the board in one motion in the form of in the form listed below. There will be no discussion on these items prior to the time the board votes on the motion unless members of the board, staff or public requests specific items be removed and discussed from the consent agenda. The superintendent and staff uh recommend approval of all consent items. Uh movement of any uh recommended consent item is appropriate at this time. Are there any trustees who
016would like to pull any agenda items? Um, yes. I would like to pull items uh C4 and C5 for discussion, please. Okay, anyone else? Anyone in the public? Anyone online? Let me check. I have one person with uh raised hand. Okay. Um, Angela Stucker. Hello, Angela. Angela, please go ahead. Hi. Hello. Hi, Angela. Right now, we're uh pulling items for for from the proposed consent agenda. Do you have any items you would like have pulled for further discussion? I was only speaking on behalf of keeping the Newton Center for my disabled kid. So, I'm not sure. I was unable to respond. Thank you for hearing this. I apologize. I'm literally in the parking lot with my two kids right now. So, I'm not sure. It's not the time for that at this time. So, when
017we get to that item, we will call. Um Okay. It was I was unable to do such a thing. It was disabled. Yeah. We only allow you to when it's your time to speak. So, thank you. I'm sorry if they asked me that. I apologize. Thank you so much. I'll wait. Okay, you got it. All right. Um, we will uh can I get a motion to approve uh all of the items under the consent agenda and pull except excuse me of uh C4 and C5, please? Sorry, I just want to clarify um the the public commenter I think she said something about the Newton contract, but I don't see Newton on here. Is that I think Oh, I thought that was in a uh I think that might she might be just have comments. I
018believe that's what I understood. Right. But then what budget I mean I guess like what item would she be making? It's in the consent agenda. I think it's just where it's public comment. I'm assuming. But that would have been for non-aggenda items, right? Because it's on Oh, I I see what you're saying. Uh in terms of agenda items, uh h President Brooks, she did have her hand up quite early actually at the moment that you were talking about non-aggenda items. So, it may have been that she was missed at that moment. Uhhuh. Okay. Uh well, we'll have another moment for um public comment. Okay. Because usually we do it before and after. So, she'll she'll have another time. Okay. Okay. So, um I guess we I'll um request a motion to approve the consent agenda
019removing C4 and C5 for further discussion. I'll make a motion to approve the pro the proposed consent agenda um minus C4 and C5. Second. All in favor say I. I. I. I. All right. Uh, thank you so much. Um, so for item C4, um, approval of the LCFF local indicators, um, this is just more of a general question that I had. Um, so I guess first, you know, looking at this attachment um, for C4, I first wanted to say I was really glad to see that the numbers of our middle school students who are experiencing um, chronic sadness um, have been decreasing over the last few years. I think middle school can be a really tough time for students. Um, and I really appreciate seeing the different things that we're doing to increase supports for
020our middle school students, including counselors and social workers, um, to help our students feel connected to school, especially those who identify, um, as members of the LGBTQ plus community or any other vulnerable groups. Um, I think what I was wondering, however, was, you know, when I was looking at the different um, kind of ratings. I I noticed a couple of consistent three ratings for the history, social science section, and I was just kind of wondering, is that have to do with, you know, the fact that we'll be due for a new social studies curriculum in the 2728 school year? Is it anything else that I'm missing? I just wanted to get some clarification on that. No, you're you're Thank you for the question, Trusty Ho. No, that is exactly right. We're aware of the fact
021that um we especially at the um elementary K5 have not done the adoption yet. So um you know the internal rating we did on that is based on that that grades span um work that hasn't happened yet. Is it that the curriculum is like outdated or you know I was just curious. Yeah, we've um we and you may recall at the last board meeting we actually um you actually approved the um purchase of supplementary materials. Um and this is really just a question of um coming out of the pandemic focusing on uh the core math and and ELA. Um you probably aware that we're moving into a pilot and adoption process for math next year. We anticipate following that with the ELA adoption. Uh which means that the history social studies adoption is probably a
022good um three years away. Um so part of our goal with the purchase of the supplementary resources was to um enable our staff to you know continue to do standards align instruction even as we have truly an aging social studies curriculum. Thank you so much. I really appreciate it. Um my next question was for um C5 approval of the consolidated application for funding. Um again, you know, I think I was just wanting a little bit of clarification here. Um on the application, I notice a list of category funds um that that the LEA is eligible to receive. Um all the, you know, categories are yes except title 3 immigrant. Um can you explain to me why that one is listed as well? Um, in our district, uh, the enrollment of of students who qualify in
023that category is actually rather low. Um, it doesn't necessarily generate, um, a great amount of money. I think it's, um, maybe 50 or $60,000. Uh, that's a lot of money, but the the requirements that are attached to that um, we've just always judged are sort of rather burdensome, and so it didn't feel like it was uh, it was worth that. Um, we actually were going to take a look at it this year to see, you know, maybe actually uh to uh whether there's been enough of an increase that it would be worth it. And we're also now in a situation federally where we've said yes to one part of the Title 3 funding. We know that's going to be cut. Um, and certainly the immigrant funding was going to be cut as well. So, we
024just we kind of stayed the course until we until we learn exactly what's going to happen there. Thank you. All right. Any uh questions or comments from board? Okay. Anyone in the public would like any we'll we'll just Okay. Uh can I get a motion to approve C4 and C5, please? Oh, sorry. Motion to approve. Second. All in favor say I. I. I. Thank you. All right. We will move to human resources. Is that 5A? Do you want to do that for the like for the C4 C5? You raised your hand at the beginning. We want to know public comments. Public So um okay we'll move to item um 5A human resources business resources. Thank you President Brooks. Uh good evening board members, superintendent ooa and guests. Um before the approval of a collective bargaining
025agreement, school districts are required to disclose costs associated to the provisions of the agreement. Um the tenative agreement with CSEA was ratified uh earlier this week by their members and um we wanted to uh present to you the costs that are included in the attached AB1200 public disclosure documents and we recommend the board approve the AB1200 documents. All right. Do we have any board questions or comment regarding this item? Um, as mentioned earlier, I just wanted to say thank you to you and your team and also our CSEA representatives for really all the work that's happening behind the scenes. Um, and especially everyone seeking a lot of expediency um, and fasttracking everything just so that um, we could meet this with approval today. Um having this agreement in place I think really brings relief to
026our classified employees and also clarity for the district um so that everyone really you know feels prepared going into the 2526 school year. So just wanted to share appreciation for everybody um really uh getting behind this quickly. Thank you. Yes. So this requires a vote. Yeah. Uh do public comment. Are there any online comments regarding this uh 5A? Um no other commenters except uh Mrs. Tucker. Okay. Well, with that, I'll take a Motion to approve. Second. All in favor say I. I. I. I. We'll move to item 5B. Okay. Um on June 18th, CSEA and the district reached a tenative reopener agreement. Uh we'd like to thank CSEA, as has already been mentioned, for their collaboration and partnership in the negotiations process. Um again, CSEA members did ratify the tenative agreement this week and so
027now we ask the board to approve that agreement uh and the salary schedule as presented in the board packet. Thank you. Any board questions or comments? All right. Any in person? How about online? No other public comment. Thank you. All right, I'll take a vote or excuse me, I'll take a motion to approve 5B. Motion to approve. Second. All in favor say I. I. I. Thank you. We'll move to item 5C. So, the next two items um are regarding salary increases for Samo Foster City School administrators and confidential employees. And the first piece of that is approving the AB1200 document that is attached in the agenda. So we are asking for board approval on the AB1200 for administrators and confidentials. Thank you. Any board questions or comment in person? No. All right. Online Joe, no
028public comments. This vote is for C and D. Correct. Are we doing it both at the same time, C and D? Because you uh referenced both the next two items. It's C first and then we'll do D. Okay, you got it. Okay. We will first um take a Motion to approve 5C. Second. All in favor say I. I. Okay.

And now we'll move to 70. See, I'm just getting up my screen here. Good evening, board of trustees. I'm here to present our construction update. Second is minimize. Sorry. Here one second. Present. One. Sorry. There we go. All right. and I'm here to present our June update of measure X and T. As an update, um we're almost completed spending our Measure X funds. Measure T, we're a little
031over halfway spent. Uh all of our SHA structures are now producing energy. So, we're studying those electricity bills, making sure everything is reporting correctly. Our Fiesta Gardens North project broke ground um this spring and construction is underway. Our third issuance of Measure T is happening this summer. The Bowage New Academic CP is scheduled for move in um during our fall break and the gym will be completed in the first quarter of 2026. And our third phase of our paving and turf projects was awarded and is now under construction. Here's some fun pictures of what's going on right now out there in the field. This is a picture of the new gym at Bowic and also part of the new courtyard looking at the counseling and library buildings. Uh interior view of the new counseling building.
032This is our groundbreaking at Fiesta Gardens North and we're underway. This is the um forming of curbs of the new soccer field and this is on schedule to be completed in August. Our New Highlands multi-purpose room, we had that ribbon cutting. Um they've also had their first performance. They had Beauty and the Beast a few months ago. Parkside multi-purpose room. Uh it is nearing completion. Here's an interior shot. Uh Meadow Heights multi-purpose room. It is also also complete. It'll be finishing up this summer. Uh turf and paving. Uh this is particular pictures of Burell, but we're removing paving. Um fixing some or creating some new ADA improvements and replacing the pavement, basketball poles, and striping at a few of our sites this summer. Uh here is the measure X and additional funding sources report. Um
033not much changed here. Um we were we um gave back some funds to the general fund from the transportation AB 181. Other than that um things are staying pretty similar. Measure T. uh since I presented last fall, uh we've added a new project of um technology upgrades. So, we'll be uh kicking off that project to happen next year, but um updating all of our um data servers and let's see here. Um updated our interest um we've received I've kind of reformatted the funding sources there at the bottom. So you can see measure C or sorry series C is happening this summer and then we're estimating one final bond sale of 59 million most likely um in 2027. We received 10.2 of interest so far um on our bond sales and then I created a separate
034column showing what funds we have not yet received it received. So, we have received some grant money on the solar. Uh, I'm currently uh on the IRS website registering our progs to get the rest of the money there of the um investment reduction act and then also our state funding eligibility of um it's a total of 55 million that we're eligible for. So, we're also in the process even though we're doing all this construction currently out there in the field. It's updating our facilities master plan. Um, so our last plan was adopted in 2020. 5 years have passed. So we are going combing through each school site and determining what projects we've completed, what scopes are still left to complete off the last plan and um identif identifying new scopes that are needed. We're scheduled
035to be completed with that draft in August. After we have that draft, we'll then be going to each school site and having meetings um with staff and and the community to get their input on the projects listed. We're scheduled to be completed with that um plan by the end of 2025. So, we're targeting to present it um to you in November or December so you can have a a chance to review the projects listed. Um looking at this current slide with the timeline uh we have also kicked off um our feasibility and yield study um with housing. So that is underway. Um we will be going out to the larger community in July with a poll um to get a sense of um the community about going out for a future bond. Um, our last
036master plan was about a billion in need. So, we've passed U measure T, which was 409 million. We're I haven't seen the updated prices yet, but we'll see that in the draft in August. Uh in that master plan will also include um housing the cost to build um employee housing and we'll then come to you August or September to give the updates of the different surveys. Um also our consultants here they'll um present the findings. We'll present then the facilities master plan to to you with the priority list of projects all targeting um January February that if um the board decides to pass a resolution to go for a future bond and that's the end of my presentation. Thank you. How exciting. How exciting. Oh, you know, I've said this several times, but I'm going
037to have to say it again. You know, we deal we on the news hear a lot going on in a lot of districts and you know, I have to say that we are in a very good seat. So, thank you for the work that you've done. Does any board comment or questions related to this item? Yeah, I did have a question um for Miss Rufo about the timing of the bond. So, are we talking about two different bonds at all or just one for Cuz you I think you said 2027 is that was that something 2027 is our last issuance of measure T. Okay. So, um we're selling 100 million um this year and then we have 59 remaining. Okay. And then we're now looking at next steps for then for a different bond. Got
038it. Thank you. Thanks for the clarification. That's all I had. Thank you so much for um everything you do to oversee these amazing projects all over the district. It's a really big job. So, we're very grateful for that. Thank you. Um I had a couple questions. First of all, um sorry, um my voice is not totally here, but um thank you for this presentation and just want to say how fortunate our district is to have um the support of the voters and and and everyone in our district that's making these construction projects possible. So, um thank you for that. My questions were or question is on um the funds not received the state funding specifically. Is that something we're for sure getting or it's like a wishful thing or what's the certainty on that and
039timing as well? Sure. So our total eligibility is 55 million by we'll be fully eligible by 2027. We're in a 25ear cycle. So depending on when we did the work 25 years ago, it's staggered. So luckily we're with the program, it's a matching. It's more like a 60/40 match. We've already done all the projects needed to be eligible. So the work we've done in measure X and measure T. So we work with a consultant to bundle the documents to send to the state for approval. And because the state bond was passed last fall, that additional um money that our consultants say we have a very good chance we just need to complete all the documents and stand in line. So uh luckily and our matching share or what we will receive is 55 million. So
040we had to spend in way excess of that. So, it's not a complete guarantee, but it's it's a lot higher than it was before that um last bond was passed in November. Um I guess my other question now followup is um so let's say we get the 55 million, what's the plan for that? And is it already embedded in like our previous facilities master plan and there's something on the horizon or is this going to be like future projects or how does it work? I would say we'd leverage it looking at our new master plan. So, um it's not currently earmarked for any project. Okay. And what I I didn't mention out of the current measure T um outside of those projects listed, there's still 26 million part of the bond including, you know, we
041do earn interest that's not currently earmarked for an actual project. I anticipate once we go through the master plan project and we look at um priorities. I'm looking at probably fire alarm upgrades, but thinking that if we are um able to pass another bond, just making sure sequencing is done properly that we we bundle scopes together. Um but technology is high. We're going to start doing some tech upgrades. Um but fire alarm, a lot of them are 25 years old and it's time to upgrade. Thank you. Shane, do you have any questions or comments? Nothing on my end. Thank you. All right. Any in person? Okay. How about online, Joe? No. Raise hands at this time. Okay. We have to take a vote for this one. Correct. Oh, we do not. It's information. Good information.
042Okay. Thank you. Um uh Joel, we'll now take uh any public uh comment on line. Okay. Um Mrs. Tucker, please go ahead. Hi. What's going to happen in Newton?

Any board member uh statements? other well I'm happy that we're going on break and um I wish everyone a wonderful restful and fun that is part of the doctor's order a fun summer anyone else um I wanted to say congratulations to our eighth graders um who graduated from Abbott Burell Bowage Bayside Northshore View and Parkside um and thank you to the principles and administrators from each of those sites to allow us to be part of the uh graduation ceremonies. Um to our eighth graders, um we send you with best wishes for high school and beyond. Um we would love for you to I'm like I don't know where to look when I'm saying this. We would love for you to um come back and visit us. Um if you're so inclined um and can
045and to stay in touch with your previous schools like younger students really look up to you and educators really love it when you come back and visit us um and tell us how you're doing. Um and so please don't be strangers. Um, and we're really excited for your next steps. Um, I also wanted to, um, give a shout out to our ELOP summer school team. Um, Vice President Tren and I, um, were able to visit on their first day, which, um, is really the absolute worst, most inconvenient day, um, to visit. Um, and so we really, um, appreciate their great uh, just how gracious and generous they were with their time. Um, and I was really wanted to just say that I was really struck by the intentionality of every detail of the summer school
046program and its coordination. Um, like the students they have and the employees I hired. Um, kids and faculty looked like they were really happy to be there. Um, and I really hope in time that we can continue to grow our summer school program to be able to serve even more students in the coming years. And last but not least, um I wanted to wish the uh members of our community um a happy pride month. Um Pride Month typically has been when you know the LGBTQ plus community really gets to win some watershed moments and gain new rights. Um this month has really been the opposite. Um, and there's been a lot to mourn. And so I can't change what's happening in our country, but I wanted to say that, um, in our district, we value
047our LGBTQ plus students, families, and employees. Um, I really want to vow to protect you and your rights um, and to create safeguards for you. Amen. any uh comment? Sure. Just a few things um from abroad that I'd like to share. So, one, I did want to acknowledge that a few weeks ago we had a really great event with the Give Forward Foundation, the Bay Ed Fund, and other partners in San Francisco. Superintendent was on stage with former education secretary John King speaking about both his history and his work in the classrooms, but also some of the issues facing us as a country. So really great and looking forward to working with the Bay Fund on some of the things that we have planned ahead. I also wanted to thank everyone who came out for
048our fourth annual partners lunch. It was great to see so many folks there. We gave out a lot of awards, brought together a lot of the people that have made our district so successful and it's a great reminder on how much we rely on our community and other experts and other partner organizations for all of our extended learning and so much more that we do. So always grateful for those folks in the community that helps to make our district so successful. Um, echoing Trusty Hoe, I did want to, you know, acknowledge our eighth graders. I have the ability to go to, I believe it was Abbott's promotion, Park Sides, um, Bayides, and then also my own, uh, fifth grader finishing up the College Park. And so, always a great time to celebrate with families and
049students and our teachers and everyone else who came together. And just to close out at the end of the school year, I think, you know, having only been on the board for a few years now, I thought this year felt just very special in a lot of ways from the work that we're doing in community schools to the types of new construction projects coming up and then also to Trustee Ho's earlier comment. The way our community came together to face a lot of the uncertainty and challenges that every school district is facing across California and across this country, I think it just shows a lot of the great work there, great talent and commitment that we have in our district. So, I did want to thank again all our teachers, staff, administrators, and everyone else
050who helped us make this a successful year and looking forward to have everyone having a good summer and pick things back up in the fall. Thank you, trustee. All right.
