Um, we are here tonight to give you a firstofits-kind presentation of what the partnership between the Corkran Joint Unified School District and the Recreational Association of Corkr aka the RACK has looked like and what we are striving to achieve
003in the future. So, my name is Daniel Gonzalez and the new executive director at the RACK. Um, I did bring in my uh leadership team member. Her name is Veronica Cruz and she runs the ASUS. Um, and right now we do have Miss Anna Collins on maternal leave. Um, so she is our ELO director. Um, thank you. Uh, this next slide, um, just we just wanted to, uh, illustrate that the board's priorities and how the RAX mission and vision aligns. Um there the section there in green. Next slide. But before we get into a little bit of the nuts and bolts of ELO, I wanted to um um have Veronica explain the ACES and the Flo grants. Hello. Um Veronica here. Well, just to give you a little bit about the ACES and the ELOP,
004we um are the same parents don't know about, but we merge um for instance after school or after school. ELOP we take over I only ASUS is only 100 kids after 100 kids then the ELO program takes over and um ELO is in the summer and winter programs. Um so parents they just know that hey we're in the after school program and the the summer winter um we are over 200 kids so um we have half of the school I know in Greenmont we are running out of spaces but it's a good thing you know so we're not saying nobody no waiting list we're accepting all so right now we are full at every school site so we're very excited about that all our team leaders are care professionals. So just like the school requirements,
005we have that same requirement. Um and let's see, you want to go to the next one? Let's go to the next one. After school enrichment. Um so our programs, we do a lot of field trips. Um right now we're only doing two. We did four last year and we did a lot of presentations. Um where they come the African drummer. A lot of our ideas we get is from our region seven meetings that we go to. Um that is part of all the after schools and we get ideas and we talk to them in our region 7 meetings and that's every month. So we go to different location um our region 7 meeting um we deal a lot with um Danielle and we deal with a lot of people um to align what we're doing
006here at the school. So everything we do, we um let the school district know like, "Hey, this is what we're doing." Um just so we're all on the same page. Um our field trips, we offer um see our Patty Studio that was our last year was our first year having a dance studio. It was awesome. They're from Hamford and they come every week with a different school site and they do a dance and a huge performance at the end. So we had two big performance and it was a good turnout. parents loved it, the kids loved it, and so stuff like that we want to bring. Kids Corporate doesn't have that. And so we trying to bring stuff that we don't have here. And so that is one of the things that we did. Um,
007and here's some pictures of some of the slideshows that well just the little presentation that we had. We also in partnership with the corporate library, we uh just put a little library books where people can donate books to us and we put it outside the rack. Um that way um students could come and get some books anytime they want. So we try and keep that filled and the library also gives us books when we need some like say they're getting rid of their books, we'll get the books as well. Um and we do bring the kids to our program to the rack. Um and we we have out the city houses out with the doll ride and that's a big help to transport. So that's really good that we um contact the city for that.
008Um the paw program, we do paw program in John. So, um, for instance, if their grades are low, we like to help out with with the teachers and to help with the kids with their homework assistance. Um, that way we have the teachers to help, not us, cuz some of our staff, you know, it's hard for them to do some of the stuff. So, we hire the teachers to help the students with their homework. Um, next one. So, our ACES and ELO programs. So right now we have the rack skate that is really popular right now. Um the kids make their own boards. So they learn how to make their boards, putting the wheels, everything on. They learn how to skate. Um there's a picture in the bottom of that or of them holding the
009skate that they the skateboard that they made. Uh bicycle skate program. We There's a picture of the kid jumping. Um yeah, we make sure that they have their helmets, their little pads, everything on for safety reasons. Um all this week we have the kids on the field trip. They're at the behind railroad and so it's a lot of kids first time going to the mountains. A lot of first times of them going on the train and this is the state train. So we're very excited. The kids love going on all these field trips. Um and it it's neat to take them. Last year we took some to Hurst Castle and to the beach. The kids loved it. They've never seen a castle and they're like, "This is a castle." Um and then the water, the
010ocean. We took pictures of them um in the ocean. So, it it was fun. It was fun to take the the kids to these experience that they don't have the chance to do. And we do I was just telling Daniel we we got a card from a parent saying she's a single mom and she goes, "Thank you so much for these bill trips. I couldn't afford to take my kids to trip." And that's what we're here for. We're here to help the kids that aren't able to go on these trips, you know, and that's why I tell parents all the time, give us ideas, you know, and I tell the kids, too, you I I know what you guys like. Let us know. we could get that for you. I did bring some pieces of
011our crafts. It's uh it's our engineer. It's a engineer and it's from Kiwi Co. there's speakers and little games that the kids um made and so it's it's a Kiwi Co program. It's an engineer. So that's one of the things that we are doing in the after school engineering. So you can push the reset button and it'll go. But the kids built this at the John and so it and this works if you put down your speaker on your phone whatever it works and it'll and the balls go up and they spin. So it's pretty cool that the kids are making this and it's the engineer Kiwi Co. So check that out. The Kiwi Co. They have it from kindergarten all the way up to like high school kids like this that we like to
012buy for our students. And so that's one of them that we like to do. Uh we do recreational swim. So we take the kids swimming, different school sites swimming. We take them to swim. Kids love who love the water. So um we do free swim lessons. So everybody in our program could sign up for free swim lessons. So that's one thing that we're also doing. Um we have the presenters that come to our program. We have the field trips. Uh we're planning on doing more field trips. We only did two this year. We're hoping to do a lot more next year. And some of the students feedback that are in our program. Hopefully you hear it. There were small videos. Videos. Yeah. Yeah. Let me go back. So if I click on I like the
013summer program because they have fun activities to do and fun sports. I'm going have to do one of these. Find it. PowerPoint went. There it is. One thing I like the summer program because in the wack they had like building stuff to That's one of the stuff. I like that one. We got one more. All right. Zoom in. That's it. and what we want to bring um for next year. We already started the chess club. Um but now uh we want to start it at all. Um it's huge. Um a lot of schools do it in Fville everywhere. Um so why not we and so we want we have a teacher already um at John Mir. So we're going to see if we could get more um teachers or somebody that's really good. will hire
014them, teach your kids. We have all the stuff already um for that for the chess club rocket club. We have a teacher at John here who's doing the rocket club and so we're just trying new things um for the kids. And so if we could get more people on board then um we want to do at other school sites. We have the eye cooking where they will come and they'll do a cooking project. they'll bring everything. And so we're looking at that to bring them on board on the the eye picking. Um gardening is another thing that we want to um do at the rack or have the kids involved. Um we already have some of the stuff um for the kids to learn because we are the capital and I do want the kids
015to know about our egg. Um so it's very important that they know this and so that is a big thing that I want them to do is learning and learn about our egg here. Um, another thing is the Legos building building is mo is popular. So you see that and the Legos, those are the most popular things that the kids want to do and it's very expensive. Um, the Legos and all that, the kids and all that like this, but it's so worth it cuz the kids want to come just to build and parents are not going to pay 60, 50 bucks for their kids, you know, to for this stuff, you know. So, I'm glad that we could purchase some of the stuff through the company and they do give discounts. So, um yeah,
016we're looking forward to doing more of the building. Um pickle ball academy, we want to start that up also next year. That's very, it's getting very popular. Fastest growing sport I play. So, it's so much fun. So, we're trying to encourage the kids to keep it up. And they already started a couple years ago at Mark Swing. And so I know in March 20 started uh probably like four years ago that way they could get ready for tennis and so we're we're excited to do the pickle ball academy um 4 curriculum. We have 4 that comes uh and they do projects with our um our team leaders and with the the kids and that's a free program that they come and it's um so it's awesome to be in partnership with them um because they
017have everything curriculum based and the kids love it. Um so we're going to continue in partnership with them. Um we like I said we do want to do additional field trips. Um I know one of them that we went a couple years ago, two or three years ago to moderate aquarium that was so nice for the kids to see um at the moderate aquarium. It was their eyes were like so big like seeing everything for the first time. So stuff like that we want to continue doing um and continue having presentations come to our program the presenters um because it's all for the kids. Everything's for the kids and what we can offer for them. Awesome. Thank you, Ed. Um, I mean you guys all saw all the amazing things that we currently do for
018the kids and a long list of the, you know, this is part of the augumentation request as to why we want to continue to bring uh new stuff, new programs, new sports um to get these kids exposed in our community um to these kinds of things. So um with that being said, um we've had multiple uh meetings with Mr. Pina, um the rest of the group um with the district and we came up with some of the additional structures for alignment um and meeting with the district um as a partnership um to um to have these quarterly meetings whether um to provide student data or uh financials to where we can uh all be aligned. So uh next slide please. Any questions? Yes, sir. Ditch her name right there in Rayville. She does. Yeah. If
019you go on her, go on her on her site, they do these big old plays and everything at the box. I was wondering about heel strips. Do you do that all one day a day? No. So this trip is a whole week because we take down every school site. So every day like today was Bring tomorrow's March 20th. Friday will be John here. So it's like every day we have a charter bus picking up each school site. That's that group will come home at 9. Well, it's during our program 9 hours 7 and then like they were back at 4:50. I I just pick them up somewhere. Yeah, they pick them up at the school at the school site. They pick them up. So, they're ready with they're ready with their shirts and everything. We
020got the bright neon shirt. That way we can like your student [Music] a lot lower on field trip. Yeah, that's cuz they want to go to the park. Yeah. So, our next one is um the Island Water Park. That's the popular one. Love it. Where did I The Island Water Park is our next Yeah. So, you mentioned those brief. You have programs at Fremont Jere. So, Brett and Fremont are together right now for the summer. Okay. And so, we're located at the Fremont school site. So we have John Mir and Mark Twain at John Mir. Uh that's what sometimes they do work at the certain school sites and they put two sites together and it just makes it easier for parents to drop off their kids. And so the program for the parents, they sign
021them up at the beginning of the year, they keep anytime that you sign it up. Yeah. So we just have somebody sign it today. So yeah, when they sign it, they can start the next day. No cost to your parents. No, everything's free. Thanks. Are you guys doing anything? Um I know I know I see your own kids out there all the time, but like as far as educational and since we don't have summer school this year or basically they are great for that. Yeah, the Caesar I forgot to mention that the Caesar Chavez curriculum. Um so we partnership with them and so yeah, I totally forgot about that. And then the teachers. So we hire the teachers from our school district and they are doing the curriculum during the learning with the students. And
022then after lunch time they like my staff comes and we do our our activities and the first half of the morning is when the teachers doing the curriculum. And what type of curriculum are they? It's um it's the senior job is the foundation for reading books. Um it's a whole setup of doing crafts and all that, but it's all about STEM and reading. Their their focus is reading and so that's a because of course we want our kids to have a higher level of reading. So it's more about breathing. Thank you. Thank you. Um, we're going to go on through a board of trustees reports and then reporting. [Music] Okay. And I don't believe but maybe we'll look to see if we have content facility association. No. Then about California employees association. Okay, very good.
023So, uh, any public comments, right? Action items, consent agenda. Do I have a motion to approve the consent agenda items? I'll second question. [Music] Mr. Christina did provide um a little more information to me on that one. Let's see here. It's for an in-person negotiator and Katherine has years of district HR experience. She will also know more, excuse me, work more with Mrs. Moreno on fulfilling findings in the school services HR audit. So my question is why do we need an out I mean I know we've had it in the past but why do we need an outside come try to negotiate our partners for a deal may waste money because we have very qualified people here that have sat in on that negotiation and now we're bringing somebody else and I know we have
024more concern with the way we've done in the past but I I just don't understand Why we have to have somebody right on the outside to negotiate with our part? I agree with that. I would resend my second. Oh, you're you're going to hear how you enlighten us. I I want to be able to say that it's the district practice in the past because the uh negotiation team for the unions have also brought in a labor representative. Um, and sometimes having that collaboration between the labor representative and a district representative that's not so part of the team of the district. They're able to communicate um a little bit better off the record so to say than with with us because it might it put us in a position that we might be agreeing to something
025that we're really not um able to do that. Um but it's not necessarily a requirement to hire a negotiator as far as trust and negotiations need to bring that then um we'll see that and if there's conversations or clarifications we would definitely seek out some support uh but not necessarily that you would need to have someone they actually attend. Yes. Yes. What is the financial cost of that? I'm not sure what this particular contract is because I didn't bring it. So, one of your contracts. [Music] several times. So the second question to improve communication. Yes. The additional information that Mr. Bina provided for this one is that it is to support staff on creating a communication plan to help remove work from their plates. Communication is an area which has been identified by the staff
026and community as needing support. This particular contract is for 6 months and if we find it is beneficial, we will bring it back for an extension. If we were to hire somebody, uh the estimated cost calculated here is $190,000 with salary and benefits and we would u that we need to share our corporate story to ensure to keep uh and attract families. Does the work now the communications any communication done to parents to the kids to anybody who's doing that work right now? I don't have that particular answer for you. So we want to spend he's asking us to spend $5,000 a month for six months which is $30,000 is currently being done at this moment. What are we going to do with our staff if we're paying somebody $5,000? That's the social media thing,
027right? I I have a question about that too. Um our you know if you just looked at the social media our newspaper is practically all high school you know I mean that's what we're looking at. I know there's been many years of things that they would cover in thanks that really I I believe the idea is to allow them to um kind of add additional support with the way that our communication looks that we're sending out in the various platforms potentially through the newspaper and whether it be on social media or just uh documents that we're communicating out with the community as well. Um, not specifically just for social media, but Oh, we're doing that now. Correct. I'm going to amend my motion to u to to both. I I I just don't see spending
028$30,000 to for communication, right? We have we have that money to use. We're using our staff or our staff. So is is that from the general budget? Yes. And that was the understanding when I I discussed that it was because there was current staffing absorbing that those duties is to help relieve some of those duties from the current staff since you know there is some vacancies or some shortages in district areas. That's how I understood it. I haven't seen anything posted as far as for those type of positions either. So what we need to do is more recruitment. Get that in house. Okay. Well, suggestion that we show that. I don't understand. Oh, if you guys recall back at some time, they did the um the review of the the staffing and they did the
029staffing. Yeah. But that's wanting to add quite a bit more people which correct. So then because there was the need for adding more people, therefore there was more added to the current staffing and I think that that was an intention to release some of that work for the current district staff. But that's what I understood. I'm going to amend my move. Could we consider seeing something that they do that would um maybe we would be so entirely impressed with Yeah. Can I miss a question? Sure. would something in the CTE area of communications and or the kids to do something with that. Is there something available in the CT area for that? Um, right now we use our socials. We use the Facebook and Instagram and Amanda and I post those. But I mean for
030the kids to learn how to do it because some of them may want to go into the communication area. So with the video production pathway, he has them generate something, but we have to be very careful that anything that goes out, you don't want a kid just pushing stuff out. But yes, through that pathway, I think he lets them um put together for each pathway like a, you know, a little story and then he vets it and then he lets them put it out also through I think it would be more beneficial to teach the kids how to do that especially juniors and the seniors. So if they want to go into that field, they have that little bit of background. Yeah. What is that called to get the internship internal? We're not doing that
031because it would just be our students doing it. So it wouldn't be an internship because they're currently doing that already. That's part of their assignments. I believe Mr. Hashe has the students do a video at the end of the year that they have to produce. Um they have to put music to it. They have to meet certain requirements. I mean if our kids are able to do stuff then we can promote them more. Okay. I think that's all right. So go ahead. Yeah. So that that's my question. So then then can we how do we proceed with a a motion to consent the agenda and remove the two? So Sammy said that he would u he will he's amending it. So, he's approving it without five and six. And I'm doing the same with my
032second with the five and six. Yes. So, we're good with with one through four, but we removing the five and six. And we need to roll call both of that. So, um All right. First, second amended. I need a roll call. Um, Sammy, what? Patty, I would like I'm going to say no because I would like a presentation. Oh, we took them out. So, we're not passing by. We're not saying no. We're just taking them out. which I take. No. I I Valerie I and I [Music] So I I need a motion now to approve denying them. A motion either direction whether it be to approve or Okay. So on five I say we table them so the superintendent is present. Table five. And how about six? That's six. I feel six is a definite.
033We can table that too. I'll second. Okay. So to write it down, we'll be motioning to uh table five. And then so then I do a roll call. Sammy I Patty I. Valerie I and I. And then now a motion to delete Donovan Ruth. I think you said deny. Deny. What did I say? Remove. Deny. Deny. Okay. Um. All right. So, do I have a motion to deny? Motion. And do I have a second? Second. All right. Roll call. Sammy. I. Patty. Okay. Now, this is the one that I would want to have a presentation. It's okay. It still is okay. So, you would say no. Oh, I just know them. No, Patty is and then Valerie. I Okay. All right. Very good. Education services consider the approval of 2025 2026 local control accountability plan.
