001[laughter] It's all right. Ready? >> Ready. >> I alsy and justice for all. There was no action taken in close session. >> All All right. Thank you. I will read the board meeting protocol. Our meeting is being recorded. It's open to the public and it's being broadcast live through Zoom teleconference for public comment. Comments are three minutes per agenda item and will be timed. The board shall limit the total time for public comment for each agenda item to 20 minutes. With board consent, the board president may increase or decrease time allowed. To make public comment in person, um there are public comment cards at both sides of the door and that would be go to Miss Bach. Email public comments are emailed to the superintendent 24 hours before the board meetings and will be posted

002to the website. Um email public comment is limited to 450 words. Board vote and connectivity. Each motion will be followed by a roll call vote for action items. And if we are um remote and lose connectivity um the meeting will be delayed by five minutes. We do not um Trusty Ra boy is not with us tonight. We have no one tele no board members teleconferencing and the regular board meeting shall be adjourned by 10:30. Um I do want to note um for the public and the community a change with our protocol that will begin in August. Um, following the Brown Act for public meetings, the district is not required to accept written public comments or teleconference for meetings. Um, we do want to continue teleconferencing board meetings. We feel that's important so the public can

003view or listen in, can't participate, but can view. But moving forward, we will not accept written public comments. They will need to be made in person at board meetings. And that's consistent with what many districts do and also consistent with what the high school does. And so, of course, the public can email the board at any time, email superintendent at any time, but public comments will need to be made in p in person beginning August. >> Thank you. >> Okay, moving on to Eve to public comments for topics not on the agenda. I have two public comments. So, we'll start with Miss Calfman. I sent in a written public comment and it needed to be shortened. So I want to read the rest into the record, please. To the board. As a community member, you

004are free to express yourself in a variety of ways. However, as board members, you are held to a higher standard and your religious and political beliefs shall not be imposed on our educators, students, or families. to both Superintendent Yant and the board, the sharing of transphobic and anti-LGBTQ plus videos on district time with district resources, as you have done on February 10th and again on April 16th, tying it to quote school policy is shameful, potentially a violation of state policy, and shows the actively discriminatory personal agenda several of you have, as well as the fact that the remainder of you refused to stand up and to say that this is wrong. So, I stand to our LGBTQ plus students, educators, and families and community members. You are seen, you are valued, and you matter. And

005in reference to not being allowed to send in public comment, I think that is absolutely atrocious. There is many members of the community that are not able to be here for a variety of reasons. Yes, they can still email the board. However, there is many items that need to be made on the public record. So, I greatly ask this this entire board to reconsider that and to allow public comment to still be posted to the website. Thank you. >> Thank you. Uh, next we have Hilda Gimenez. >> Good evening. My name is Hilda and I am here today because I am concerned that the students in this district are not receiving the comprehensive sexual health education required under the California law. This issue is not is more is about more than compliance. It is about

006student safety. California's Health Youth Act recognizes that youth people need medically accurate, age appropriate, and inclusive education that prepares them to make informed decisions, build healthy relationships, and understand concepts like consent and personal boundaries. These are not optional skills. They are foundational to preventing sexual harassment, sexual abuse, and sexual violence. Prevention does not begin after harm harm occurs. [clears throat] Prevention begins when young people learn how to communicate boundaries, respect the anatomy of others, recognize unhealthy behaviors, and seek help when something does not feel right. Comprehensive sexual health education gives students those tools. When schools fail to provide this education, student lose opportunities to learn about consent, healthy relationships, and available resources. They are left to piece together information from school media peers and internet where information is often incomplete, inaccurate, or harmful. Every student

007in this district deserves access to the education guaranteed to them under the California law. They deserve information that is medically accurate, evidence informed, and designed to help them build safe and respectful relationships. I urge the board to receive the district's current practices, ensure full compliance with California's Healthy Youth Act, and provide transparency to students, families, and community members about how these requirements will be met. Our responsibility is not only to educate students academically. It is also to equip them with the knowledge and skills they need to stay safe, respect others, and thrive. The prevention of sexual violence requires action before harm occurs. I will repeat, the prevention of sexual violence requires action before harm occurs. Comprehensive sexual health education is one of those tools that we have to make that possible. I thank you for

008your time and I hope that you take this in consideration for the well-being of the safety of the students of our community, of our family members, of the people that you know that you walk across the street from, the people that live next door to you, your friend's children, those kids that you don't know and have not met because one day you will come across them and I think that it's important that we take their safety in consideration. Once again, thank you for your time. >> Thank you. >> Do we have any other public comments? Thank you. So we're going to move on to F reports LCAP 1. Okay, we are going to start with our spring district assessment data. Miss Simich. Okay, we made it to the end of the year. Our assessments are

009completed. Um, district reading assessments are administered three times a year to students in kindergarten through third grade. also to some fourth through sixth grade students as well. The first set of data that you're going to see are the overall results of our kinder through third grade students um who have met all district reading benchmarks, [clears throat] grade level benchmarks. So uh the first first row overall district 65% of students uh K3 met met all district reading assessments um kinder of course in the 70% 72% met and then first through third again all above 60%. Um when you look overall down at the sites again we have um near or above 60% of students meeting all benchmarks. So nice to see and then it's broken up across sites. And if you um go to the next

010slide, we included for you because we do have a spring 2025 to spring 2026 growth goal. And our growth goal is um that our results in district reading assessments increase 10% each year. And so we look at cohort to cohort. It's not exactly sometimes the same kids. children leave, new children come. Um, but for example, if we're looking at the district set, they left um kindergarten, 74% of students met all of the district reading assessments. And then um you scroll down and follow the green color across as they've um entered first grade this year. um first trimester scored uh 61% met all then 70% and of course flu fluency probably affected some of this but back down to 62%. So um if they met the 10% growth you'll see a yes in the last column

011and if not you'll see a no. Um some came very close. Um, there's some highlights. Lake Canyon kindergarten. You look at Lake Canyon kindergarten. All above the 80% or more in in um each of the trimesters. And um Moringo Ranch, they are second and third grade and River Oaks first and second grade. um and Greer third grade all met. So we had five cohorts um meet the 10% growth target. It was nice to see and I and we're working a lot on um with Linda Pate and academic team meetings to to keep the scores going up. And then if you scroll scroll up one more page I think we're at Can I go on to map and I ready mathematics? There we go. Um one more there it is. Um so we've compiled for you

012the entire year of MAP reading scores. Again, instead of um meeting all, we're looking at students or student groups that meet or exceed the 60th percentile, which is a correlation of proficiency on um ESPback, though we don't take ESPback until third grade, but it's a good indicator of the number of students that are going into third grade proficient. So, um wanted to look at um some of the highlights. uh River Oak second grade uh both cohorts uh at the end spring score 71 75 and 71% in math are um over the 60th percentile. One thing that you'll notice and it will be different next year is that our um MAP reading assessment is not administered in kindergarten. So, um but the I Ready inform assessment will be. So, you'll be able to look at both

013MA uh I Ready reading and I Ready Math um beginning in kinder next year too. So, we'll be able to look and track those cohorts on this assessment. Um, again, second grade, if you look at Moringa Ranch, um, almost 80% of their students, there's lots of good, um, highlights to share. Kindergarten, Lake Canyon, 60%. Um, Lake Canyon, second grade, 68% in map. So, um, wanted to share that with you. I don't know if you have any questions. I know principles are preparing for beginning of the year academic conferences based on this data. We're looking at it closely by student group and by students. >> I guess I do have a question about the I Ready MAP or the I Ready math okay scores. Are we is it comparable to MAP? Like are we seeing similar

014performance trends? Um it's I'm just wondering if this test is different to our students than our previous math tests. >> It may not be apples to apples. So I'm just curious about that. >> Yeah, that's a great question. We saw a really strong correlation between um our spring or winter MAP scores and ESBAC scores. We have preliminary ESPback scores coming in. So, we'll be looking at that um coming up in the next few weeks and we're hopeful that there's a strong correlation with I Ready as well. >> Okay, I can bring that to you. I can create a little spreadsheet and share that with you. >> Thank you. I don't have any other questions. I don't know if anybody else does. Okay. >> All right. So, moving along um with LCAP Gold One, we have

015the California School Dashboard local performance indicators annual report. >> Okay. And Nico and I are going to share this. We both had to update some sections. Um just wanted to remind you this comes to the board every year. It is part of ELPAC. Um we do complete the self-reflection. It does have to um be shared with the board and the public. There are um priority levels. Um and we have to rank ourselves and um score met and the completion of the um report and the local indicators and the reporting of the district's finding um are shared with the board and then um we're considered to have met all of our indicators. And so we're just going to go through those with you um really quickly. I can start with um indicator number one and that

016I believe is on page uh four and indicator number one measures appropriately assigned teachers um access to curriculum aligned instructional materials and safe clean school facilities. And for some reason, and I can't understand it, but um the CDE has not updated data quest yet, we will bring you the 2024 2025 um um numbers for our total full-time teachers, um interns, etc. We're still we checked today and we're still only able to access 2023 2024 data. The next part of the um priority two is implementation of state academic standards and we give these um rubrics to administration and administration completes the rubrics. You'll notice that um there's an overall score uh rating scale from one exploration, two full implementation. Um number one is providing professional learning for teaching. And um you can see we scored some

017fives and also some threes in areas of science and social studies. Um hoping to see the science go up now that we've adopted or going to adopt, I should say. Um area number two, progress in making instructional uh making instructional materials that are aligned to our adopted standards and are available in our classrooms. You can see our overall scores. Um number three in um identifying identifying areas where we want to improve in delivering instruction in our classroom and those are our overall scores we've given. um LEA's progress in implementing academic standards. We've scored that as well um with some threes in career technical education and health education content standards and then some fives in the others. Um and the next area number five is the LEA's success in engaging in following activities with teachers and

018school um administrators. And um we scored all five in those areas and I think I think the rest is cool. >> The next I have the next two indicators. So indicator three is parent and family engagement. And in this indicator, it requires a school district to look at how the school district uh it looks in three different areas. The first area is how does the school district build relationships between the school staff and the families. And in that specific area starts on page nine. and we utilize our healthy kids surveys that were completed in the spring to give us information and um feedback from our community. And so as indicated in in this report, um some of the items that we pulled out that are our verification of meeting this item area 49% of our

019parents surveyed districtwide reported strongly agree that parents feel welcome to participate at school with the goal being 50%. 47% of parents surveyed again districtwide strongly agree promotion of parental involvement. And so those are uh our self-reflection in terms of meeting that specific item which is building relationships. And in terms of action items that we have that strengthen and build that relationship, we have social workers, counselors on our campuses. We have uh a bilingual community outreach assistant and a coordinator that helps support communication at all sites. Um we have bilingual office staff uh in our offices. Um our uh all of our school sites at least holds one individual conference with parents and some hold it twice. And um our district website our uh individual school websites are available in multiple languages. So these are some

020ways that we are working to build that relationship with our families. So that's one area. The second area is how does the school district partner for student outcomes [snorts] and again we look at our um survey data to see how well we are doing in that area. And so on page 11 we had 50% of our parents surveyed strongly agree that teachers communicate with parents about what students are expected to learn. And 54% of all parents surveyed reported that they strongly agree the school keeps them informed about school activities. And so um items that we have currently in place that help build that um partnership include parent view. That's a in the district student information system. This gives parents daily access to grades and attendance. We have advisory committees that are um led monthly and

021and that is our district advisory committee, our English learner advisory committee and our special education advisory committee. Um we examine our state and local data at board meetings um and also with our administrative team and um during our committee meetings. There are sitebased student study teams and as I mentioned earlier there are parent teaching conferences held at least once per year. The third area in this um priority area three is do we seek input for decision making with our parent community and again we reference our surveys. Um 48% of our parents surveyed districtwide reported strongly agree that school encourages me to be an active partner. Um something that will be an area of focus. 36% of parents surveyed reported they strongly agree that school actively seeks input of parents before making important decisions. And so

022some things that we have in place districtwide where we do get input from parents include our numerous feedback sessions for the LCAP feedback sessions during our district advisory, our English advisory committees, our school site council meetings on site, um parent advisory committees, and our um surveys that we push out in the springtime. These are areas that we feel we have met those priority areas in terms of seeking input from our community. So that's um priority area three. Priority area six, this is um where we administer the local climate survey that is administered to our students fifth through 8th grade. And looking at this data, our goal is always to review the data, identify needs and uh identify needs and areas of strength and any revisions to actions or decisions. And so on page 15 um

023I've pulled out uh the data that correlates with this specific task. Do our students feel connected to school with goal being 80%. Uh fifth, sixth, and seven uh fifth and sixth typically are in the 70s where we see a little bit of a dip in our middle school grades. Similarly with academically motivated, how academically motivated are students? Do students have caring adults in school? Again, fifth grade 71% sixth grade 69% a little bit of a dip in seventh and eighth. And we're looking for a goal of 80%. Um, and when we look at specifically what were some strengths that were observed in the fifth through sixth grades, we saw that high expectations from adults in school was high. Academic motivation was high. They feel safe. Students feel that they are treated with respect. Similarly with

024seventh through eighth grade, high expectations, academic motivation and school perceived as very safe. Um areas that we continue to monitor and provide some actions and services through our meaningful participation and um students reporting that school is boring, school boredom. So those were definitely areas that um you know we have some targeted action items around. So that's uh priority area six and I think it's back to you. >> Okay. Priority area seven looks at or measures access to broad course of study and um that is basically ensuring our schools are providing well-rounded education preparing students for the future. Um there are prompts and we've answered the prompts and just a summary of that is our elementary and middle school students um have access to the course subjects and we monitor compliance. Um the district reviews course

025offerings um class schedules and we monitor our enrollment data. We use the Williams review process to validate access to student um for all student groups and students that aren't performing at grade level are provided with targeted interventions to support academic progress. Um there are elementary and um enrichment opportunities and middle school course offerings that we've listed as well. Um, we did also note that the collaboration will continue to ensure our English learners have access to exploratory classes. That's a priority. Um, and we are um highlighting that we want to um continue to take proactive steps to increase middle school student access to CTE and exploratory pathways. Um, we just completed a a master schedule that's going to support that the middle school. And I think I think that's it. >> Thank you. You're welcome. >>

026All right. Any questions on that or comments? No. >> Okay. We will move forward with the Fair Sight State Preschool Program self evaluation annual report. Lara Marquez, principal of Fairsite is going to share with us packet. >> Good evening everybody. I am here to share with you um how we have evaluated ourselves at fairsite for the 2526 school year. Next slide, please. Our goal at Farsight is to prepare children for kinder. And so those are the many ways that uh we do prepare them and but looking at those topics there we are preparing them both socially and academically. Next slide. Our preschool staff this year consisted of three general education teachers and six instructional assistants. In special education we had four teachers and 10 instructional assistants. And our school readiness staff four. that includes the

027home visitor, the bilingual community um outreach um staff members and support staff. And we had 64 children enrolled in preschool this last school year. Um it's not I guess it's officially over. I get a little stuck with that. This last school year just ended. Uh special education 35 and 89 families signed up for playgroup. That means that um 89 families attended at least one session of playgroup. It's optional. It's come and go. Attend as many as you like. Um but a total of 89 families participated in that program. Um the continuous improvement, these are all of the tools that we use and the process that we go through to evaluate our program and um figure out how we have done for the year. Um the desired results for developmental profile um hold on um is

028a formative assessment um for young children based on the elements essential to quality early childhood education and there are multiple measures included in the DRDP the class um assessment that is another tool an observer comes to um observe our classrooms um one classroom the year before our last two classrooms this year or the following year will be all three and they um come observe give us notes and give us a a score and how we have done in our quality of our program in the areas of emotional support classroom organization and instructional support. Uh the DRDP parent survey is required every year as part of the preschool program. And then the improvement cycles that is the um initiative that is districtwide. All educators participate in that where they select a change idea and then go

029through this process to see if their change idea has worked and if they're going to continue with that um or make modifications. So our preschool staff also participates in the improvement cycle. And this is a snapshot of the DRDP. So if you see along the top that is the the continuum of the levels moving from left to right to kindergarten entry. So that is the goal to get move the children over to um the kindergarten readiness and as I mentioned there are multiple measures I've highlighted two that are strengths for us in the area of physical development in the fall 39% of the children were at building earlier and then in the spring 66% were at integrating earlier. So that's um that's a lot of growth. And then English language development for our children identified

030as dual language uh learners or multilingual learners. In the fall 67% were at building English and then in the spring 50% were at integrating English. Uh an area for growth. So I've shown the percentages a little differently than the previous slides to show how um the reports show the number of students and percentage of students that move along this continuum. And so in the fall an area for growth, sorry, is language and literacy development. In the fall, 55% of the children were at building earlier, 15% at building middle, and then some at building later. And you see that there were no students at integrating earlier in the fall. But in the spring, there were fewer at building earlier, more at building middle. So the numbers just shifted over. And there still may be children at

031exploring later or exploring middle. Uh so there is always um always growth as they move on that continuum throughout the school year. and the class. So this um is the one where the observer comes to obs observe our program and give us feedback. So areas of strength for us were emotional support and classroom organization. So positive climate, teacher sensitivity, behavior management and productivity which are all essential uh foundational um um necessities for children to feel physically, emotionally safe in order to learn. So we're very proud of our work in that. And then an area for growth is in instructional support. So we have the foundation to now improve on our instructional support in the areas of concept development, quality of feedback and language modeling. So at the beginning of next school year, we will come

032up with some action plans on um how to improve this. So when the observer comes next year, our scores will grow go up in this area. and our preschool parent survey, there were um 50 families who completed it. Um overall, they are very satisfied with the quality of our program. They feel their children are safe and happy. And in all of the other sections, there were overwhelming um responses of yes. And there was also a section for parents to write comments. And so they noted that their children are happy, excited to attend, and actively engaged. and an area for growth. There were a handful of parents who marked no, they have not received information on how children develop at different ages. So, even though it was a small number of parents, this is something that

033we will um keep in mind to make sure that we get more of that information out to all of our families. And ending with um some pictures of what fairsight looks like and what happens there. So the top left is our steam room, science, technology, engineering, art, and math. And over on the right is our new library. We have family science nights, family math night, family literacy night, and several assemblies uh throughout the year [snorts] to um prepare the children. This is another way to prepare them. They're going to go to the library when they get to elementary school. They're going to have some kind of steam activity. There will be assemblies. Um, so all of these things are all of these events are ways to prepare them for what it is to be in

034school and to also provide them with some very rich learning um, and enriching activities. So that's all I have for you. Do you have any questions for me? >> I think you said that when your observer comes next year, they're going to make assessments. So who exactly is the observer? Is that a state employee? They trained people um from the um the different organizations but it stems from the from the state. >> Yeah. No other questions for me. I just I enjoyed my visit there a few months ago and I was impressed with all the opportunities for children that small. I think uh broadening their horizons that small is really important. So I think that Fairite is doing a great job with that. >> Thank you. Thank you for coming out. And I encourage those

035of you who haven't yet visited to come visit. It's very It's very cute. Everything we do there is cute. The kids are cute. The decorations are cute. [laughter] >> Come by and see us. Thank you. >> Yeah. Great job. And I just want to also highlight um while this report was about preschool, of course, transitional kindergarten is there as well. And just recently, we had a visit. Mrs. Marquez invited um a visitor, a Scoey uh leader in the area of early literacy invited her to come and observe at Fasite just to get some feedback and our TK program and overwhelmingly her feedback was very very positive that um we're running an excellent program there um said we could be a model TK program. Um of course a little feedback here and there but definitely moving

036in the right direction. It's a very very great program what we have over there in preschool and and transitional kindergarten. >> Thanks. >> Moving on to LCAP 2. >> Okay. No reports for LCAP uh two tonight. Um we do have other reports and we'll start with our delegate assembly trusty Kunzie. >> Okay. Um so I just want to give a quick update on the May delegate assembly. So this is um I as a CSBA delegate attend two meetings per year. One is in May and then one is in December right before the annual education conference. And so um this year uh one of the big focuses uh CSBA has put forth and sponsored a four bill package through the legislature dealing with it's called SOS for student achievement and really kind of that SOS being

037you know let's look at this and really pay attention to it and right now uh the eleas us locally are held responsible but there's a feeling generally that the state itself does not have an accountability at the statewide level. So these four bills are designed to sort of bring that in. They kind of work in tandem. And so one is to create a plan, one is to um align the budget, the state budget with that plan, and another one is to have a commission to kind of oversee this. I know we've probably all gotten emails on this uh SOS and sort of asking us to support it. And so next week, it's already gone through the first house, so now it's in the Senate. Um, and it's going to the Senate Education Committee next week,

038I believe. And then they'll kind of move forward and then it'll, you know, if it ultimately goes through both houses, then it'll go to the governor for signature. And they have a toolkit that's out there. If there's any questions, um, they have a lot of information on this SOS for student achievement. And then, uh, one other thing that we do is we do breakout groups. And so I'm in the strength and local governance. So some of the ideas what they do we we sort of get all together and then talk about some of the different ideas and then we put forth the ideas that sort of rise to the top out of the group discussions. So and then we vote them vote on them as a huge delegate assembly. So these are people all over

039California. So, some of the things that came up is sort of making it easier to have districts have the ability to make improvements or um facilities repairs without, you know, some of the the stricter requirements and regul regulations. This was a huge one that a lot of talk about streamlining reporting requirements. I think uh probably that's real popular idea. Um and then streamlining uh credentiing requirements and uh there was a lot of talk about a lot of uh the LC you know the ADA versus I can never say it correctly ADA versus enrollment is that >> versus enrollment. >> So whether that ever comes to fruition we'll see but those were a lot of the ideas that were discussed and then what they do is the legislative team takes these ideas and they sort of

040say okay what do we want to move forward with from here? So that was one um big piece of it. Um there was some legal presentations. Um and I was a little disappointed that they didn't really talk upon about Mirabelli. Um I'm not sure how they decide which cases to present, but that seemed to be a pretty large gaping hole in the discussion given the United States Supreme Court decision. Uh but they did talk about some other impactful cases. There's one um related to sovereign immunity, which I know enough about that to be dangerous, but it basically has to do with whether a state versus a local school district can be sued. And so potentially, depending on the outcome of this case, it could be pretty big, but it's called CLU versus Huntington Beach uh

041union and KLU KL U. There's another one that deals with um uh statute of limitations and the tolling of that. and they found that in favor of the school district and that's called I think JR versus Ventura Unified. And then um also they had a lot of discussion about the Prop 98 maneuvers and sort of getting people encouraged to speak out about that. And then they also talked about a couple of legislative items. one relating to substitute teachers AB42490. That was the one that was put forth previously but was vetoed by the governor. And so when the governor vetos a bill, they put out a a veto message. And so this bill is a newer version of that bill designed to address the items that the governor had uh put in his message. So hopefully

042that one will move forward, but it's sort of it's going through it. That one's also in the second house. And then there's also one related to interd district transfers. And so there was a little piece that CSBA uh had some, you know, there was they were hearing some discontent with a piece of this. So they were able to kind of work with the author and that was modified. And so it's that one's going through as well. Um I apparently learned that I am supposed to be recruiting for delegates. So if anyone [laughter] wants to join the fund, definitely think about that when the elections come up. And then also um the next delegate meeting is in December as I mentioned that will be right before the annual education conference and that's in San Diego in

043the first week of December. >> Is there a limit to the number of delegates who can do a part? >> Some school some school districts have like designated ones like the larger districts I think like um like I think Elkrove because they're larger has a certain amount but I think in the general election I don't think that there's a limit. So, um, as it gets closer, we can maybe find that out for sure, but, uh, I don't I don't think that there's a a limit. So, >> okay. Just curious. >> So, that's it. Any questions? Other questions? >> Okay. All right. >> Thank you for your report. >> Of course. >> Um, and as uh you mentioned, the annual conference, the CSVA, is open for registration. It is in San Diego this year. It will

044be Thursday, December 3rd to Saturday, December 5th. Registration opened June 9th. And so early bird registration is until August 11th. And so if we want to attend, we should um get going. And we've already registered Annette and she'll be down there for sure as a delegate. Um I'm willing to attend. Um we'll bring one other cabinet member as well. We'll talk about who would like to attend this year, but I'll personally be reaching out to you to find out um who would like to go and we'll get everybody registered. And when it's in San Diego, the hotels book up very fast, very quickly. And so um the ones that are down south usually are attended a little bit more than the ones up north. There's more districts down south and it's closer for it's easier

045for them. It's easier. So, um the the hotels will fill up quickly. And then I noticed that our very own Anna Trrenell is on the planning committee here. >> Yes. >> That's pretty neat. >> All right, moving on to the consent calendar. Do we have anything you want to highlight there? >> I do. Um, I will start with our human resources. We have some big retirements to announce. We have Brian Diamond who is retiring as a custodian after 23 years in the district. Linda Extramm retiring after 31 years as a teacher at Lake Canyon. April Heron retiring after 26 years at an administrative assistant for curriculum in our district office. And Kim Walton retiring after 23 years as secretary 2 at Macaffrey Middle School. We wish them all the best. many many years of service

046in our district and congratulations on your next journey. Also, we have donations. Um, Valley Oaks, Mary Lou Rios donated a wardrobe consisting of 12 skirt and blouse ensembles along with hats and masks valued at $1,850 to the kindergarten dual language immersion program classrooms for kindergarten teachers, Miss Menddees and Miss Embry and Moringo Ranch. The Moringo Ranch parent teacher club donated $25,000 for a new play kinder playground. So I believe district is giving some matching funds for that. Playgrounds are very expensive these days and so um they've been saving they've been working towards this. This has been a goal of the parent club at Moringo for a few years now and so we will be giving some matching funds and get a new kinder playground. >> That's great. Yeah. And I just had a quick comment.

047I wanted to thank you for correcting. So last month when I was saying I went to the Avid showcase, I had inadvertently said Greer. So I'm super happy that you corrected that to McAffrey because I think it's super important as much work that went into that that it's correctly listed. So thank you for doing that. >> Yes, you're welcome. And then just a few other items in the consent calendar, routine items. We have some sale and disposal of some obsolete um materials equipment, sorry. And then we have a postretirement consultant agreement for retiree John Duran, out um educational outdoor coordinator. Um this this I think this is going to be his final year with us. We'll see. I think he's going to really retire, but I don't know. I think I think Mr. Duran has

048said that before, but yeah, we'll see. Um, and then we also have um a routine county office education billing service agreement and then routine agreements annually for two of the law firms that we use. >> Any questions on any of that? >> Can I get a motion to approve 242.727? >> I'll make the motion. >> I'll second. Thank you. I have a motion from Annette Kunzie to approve the consent calendar item number 242727 seconded by Matthew Ward. Katherine Harper I. Wesley Kaggel >> I. >> Thank you. The motion passes 40. Thank you. I have 242.729 board consideration of approval of the G joint union elementary school district LCAP. Yes. So um Nigara, director of educational services did an excellent job preparing the LCAP and working with our our cabinet and working with Skoey to get

049feedback as well. um she presented the LCAP last night at a special board meeting and we've received a decent amount of parent feedback and staff feedback that's incorporated in the LCAP and um we will take any other questions or comments that you might have before taking it to a vote. >> I was just reflecting on the amount of parent and stakeholder responses and I just appreciate all of them. I think it is just helpful to know what the community is thinking, what is on their mind, what their priorities are, and I am pleased to just hear that what they want is are is the direction that we're going. I mean, obviously, we have some growth to make, but there's also been a lot of really good growth that's been made. So, I'm just thankful to

050those parents that took the time >> um to fill out that survey, and hopefully we can get more next year, but I know it's hard. There's a lot that comes from the district. And I think in the with the attempt to keep parents informed, but I yeah, this this was good. So, I appreciate that from all of them. And I don't have anything else unless you guys do. [clears throat] >> I just also thought it was really nice to see that the kids were interviewed and asked questions and give us their opinions on some of those matters, which I thought like I think that's super important to hear from the kids. What do they think about it? So, I thought that was nice. Well, I'll make the motion to approve 242.729. >> I'll second it.

051>> Thank you. Have a motion from Katherine Harper to approve item number 242.729. Seconded by Wesley Kaggel. Annette Kunzie. >> I. >> Matthew Ward. >> I. >> Thank you. The motion passes 40. I have 242.73. board consideration of approval of the G joint union elementary school district 2627 budget. >> All right. As like the LCAP, um I want to thank Alejandra Garbe um chief business official and her business team for preparing the um adopted budget for next school year that was also presented to the board last night to the special meeting. Um we will take any other questions or comments that you might have about the budget at this time. just thank you again for putting this together in an easy to understand format. It's it's a little bit intimidating um especially if I mean

052I've had some experience now but it is it's a lot there's a lot of components and a lot to understand. So thank you for that. >> Thank you. >> Can I get a motion to approve 242.730? >> I'll make the motion. I'll second. >> Thank you. Have a motion from Matthew Ward to approve item number 242.730. Seconded by Annette Kunzie. Katherine Harper. >> I. >> Wesley Kaggel. >> I. >> Thank you. The motion carries 40. Agenda item 242.731. Board consideration of approval of resolution number 14, which is the district designating general funds as committed fund balance. So, um, to to add some background to this, um, Gasmade 54 requires districts to identify and classify a fund balance in a resolution format. And the reason this comes into place um is whenever the budget um is

053created and planned out during our governor's budget and then May revise, they have to meet certain um balances and reserves. And once they meet that then it triggers the districts to meet a cap on the reserves. Therefore we have to designate and reflect what these funds on our reserves are going to be designated for. We do have a board policy already that indicates that we could have up to 9%. So you will see on this um the purpose is the 6% since we're required to keep a 3% because it's a state requirement. The difference is that 6% makes up the 9%. So, we're designating $3.7 million to be able to maintain that 9% reserve according in accordance to our board policy. Then we have um the remaining of it. Anything over 10% we have to

054indicate what we're going to be in our reserves. Um for this coming up fiscal year, we designated specific deficit spending mitigation um measurements of 1.4 million. Due to the multi-year projections reflecting an ongoing deficit on through 28 29, the district's utilizing committed reserves to mitigate projected deficit primarily driven by the salary increases and benefit costs while continuing that long-term fiscal planning. So even though we're making measurements and um to be able to to make fiscally solvent decisions and to maintain that 9%, our goal is to have that multi-year at 9%. And as we shared previously last night, the projection set 7.76. However, we're we're anticipating some additional revenue due to some growth in enrollment and and that can change by first in. So again, it's a living document. Um budget can't change from intram in

055period. And this is just an obligation the district has to publicly put out in a resolution. Anytime the state is triggered, it triggers us to have to do this resolution. So there's times where we don't have to do this. There's going to be some years that we do. So, you'll see it here and there throughout some years. Any questions? >> And thank you for putting our reserve amount into dollars, which how then how it translates to uh what our payroll obligations are. I think that's very helpful. >> Yes, I'm glad. Thank you. >> I'll make the motion to approve 242.731. >> I'll second. >> [clears throat] >> Thank you. I have a motion from Katherine Harper to approve item number 242.731 seconded by Matthew Ward. Annette Kunzie >> I. >> Wesley Kaggel. >> I. >>

056Thank you. The motion carries 40. Item 242.732 board consideration of approval of 2627 Education Protection Act use of funds. This item is a routine item you will see every fiscal year. Um what pro what EPA Education Protection Act means is there's a designated amount inside our LCFF funding that has to be designated for teacher salaries. We are always in uh meeting that requirement. We report it and basically inside the LCFF funding um what we shared yesterday about $36 million that we shared 8.5 million has to be for teacher salaries. We go beyond that. We're at the 20 million, but we have to designate it and provide the board annually that we are meeting that requirement. >> Any questions? >> Can I get a motion to approve 242.732? >> I'll make the motion. >> I'll second.

057>> Thank you. I have a motion from Annette Kunzie to approve item number 242.732. Seconded by Matthew Ward, Katherine Harper. I >> Wesley Kaggel >> I. >> Thank you. The motion carries 40 >> 242.733 board consideration of approval of 2627 consolidated application. All right. So this is a routine item we bring to the board. The consolidated application or conapp is used by the California Department of Education to distribute categorical funds from various federal programs to county offices, school districts, and uh direct funded charter schools. The spring release documents participation in these programs and provides asurances that the school district will comply with the legal requirements for each program. There are program entitlements are determined by formulas contained in the laws that create the program. As as a board um request or recommendation that we apply

058for title one, two, three, and four, I've included in the cover sheet currently how much funding we have received under each of these title programs. So recommending a board approval of the continued funding for these programs. I'll make the motion to approve 242.733. >> I'll second it. >> Thank you. I have a motion from Katherine Harper to approve item number 242.733. Seconded by Wesley Kaggel and Kunzie. >> I Matthew Ward >> I. >> Thank you. The motion carries. 4042.734 board consideration of approval of 2627 single plan for student achievement for all of our sites. Okay. So again, this is a um annual item we bring to the board for approval. Um, I do want to recognize our administrative team that meets with their school site council regularly to review the goals, actions, strategies, and budgets

059that help develop their SIPs. The SIPA is a condition of receiving title one funding. A school is required to develop and implement a comprehensive school plan for student achievement. The purpose of a schoolwide plan is to improve academic achievement through throughout a school so that all students um can demonstrate proficiency related to challenging state academic standards. The SIPA aligns with the district's LPA LCAP goals and the federal funds are supplemental in nature and intended to enhance or improve the services provided to students. The SIPA is developed in collaboration and approval by the site's school site council, English language advisory committee and partners. Uh the SIPA identifies goals that have been aligned to site needs, evidence-based strategies, actions or services. There's proposed expenditures and how the school will ensure parental involvement. At this point, I would

060like the administrative team to maybe share one action or strategy that they would like to highlight as a part of their SIPs. So, we can maybe start Josh, Mr. Salati. I would be happy to start. Um, if I'm going with one, I will go with goal two. So, a focus on our social emotional learning. Um, we plan on using we always use funds for our social worker, but we're fortunate to have our social worker, a Skoey mental health clinician and our school psychologist. So, we're going to be working as a mental health team to continue with the implementation of our new incentive program, but also tracking data for our students needs and using a referral system with all of our teachers and support staff members to ensure that all students are getting the supports they

061need so they can access their education to the greatest extent possible. We're excited to see how that goes. And at Fairsight, one of the strategies um focuses on professional development for teachers. And so I'm really excited about a recent opportunity um I came across with the Sacramento County Office of Education, the early um learning department. They are offering up to six hours free and then for a fee of professional development. So I am looking into finalizing um two sessions with Skoey. So they will come out and train our teachers on joyful literacy. That's the name of that program that focuses on language development and um literacy and um higher order thinking skills through literacy and another session on the teaching pyramid which has to do with behavioral supports. >> Okay, good evening. I'm going to

062report out for Valley Oaks. So, at Valley Oaks, we were looking at goal one, and we're going to be focusing on um when we looked at our DRRA results for the end of spring, we noticed that 85 85 of our students did not meet rate. And several of those students, that was the only area in first through third grade that they did not meet. And so, we really want to focus in on that fluency and on the rate. And um so, we are going to be um purchasing a program that will be used with these students that helps work on that fluency. will be getting professional development training for our instructional assistants and our teachers and also purchasing some iPads that they can use for this program. It's been recommended with this program and it's

063um it's very similar to uh read naturally. It's just the online version of it. It's the reading plus. And so this is something that we're going to be putting a lot of focus and support in and hopefully seeing some growth with our rate and helping those students meet that final goal with rate. >> Right. Good evening board. Um, Lake Canyon is uh very fortunate to have a solid SYPA plan developed by Judy Hayes. Um, and so to kind of continue to build on that strong plan um our school site council, we um are focusing on um goal one learner learner engagement. And so for an action step uh strengthening our reading intervention through our MTSS program and um I was pleased earlier when we were looking at data you can see how well Lake Canyon

064is doing and our DRRA for um this year um from last year went from 67% to 75%. Um and our goal for this next year is 80%. And so to reach that goal, we want to make sure that we're um you know strengthening that reading intervention with our MTSS. So we are investing in things like um instructional assistance, our IAS um subs for our MTSS uh meetings and our academic conferences and um SIPs reading instructional materials. Um we also have an action step of just increasing teacher professional development. We've got um a lot of new teachers. Uh Lake Canyon um you heard uh Linda Extramm, a phenomenal kindergarten teacher, has retired. And so um we've got new teachers and we've got new curriculum. So we're investing in um hopefully we can get Linda back to

065train some of these new teachers. >> All right, to finish up here, I wanted to pick something a little bit different. So this action item was identified by this year's site school excuse me school site council and they were very passionate about addressing chronic absenteeism in the school. Uh while we did see a decline last year of chronic absenteeism, we'd like to continue that downward trend uh and decrease the overall percent in key demographic areas. Uh the site council recommended the following items. um increasing attendance initiatives and supplies and materials including rewards, reinforcers, celebrations, acknowledgement not only of positive attendance which is important but also any identified improvement in attendance. Uh additionally, site council was very passionate about taking on a project of creating at home materials to address the barriers to attendance. They envision

066a one sheet that has a list of community resources and opportunities to help support positive attendance in the home. Uh for instance, it could be something like outlining all the free counseling services that we have in the school itself. Uh the various community hotlines that folks can access, contacts for homeless and foster youth support, transportation programs in the community, and free or lowcost health screenings for kids. Um and I felt those uh were very important to bring as one of the trustees said about seeing the fingerprints of the folks that advise us and this is a direct result of what site council was passionate about. >> Um at McAffrey we are going to be addressing both goals um with one big rewrite to the master schedule. We've kind of thrown out our master schedule. We're

067building in a flexible intervention period. So 30 minutes three times a week that allows students tier 2 academic intervention within the school day, but also allows enrichment and then behavior reteing as well. So we're really going all in on our tier 2 and providing that time within the school day for extra support and then enrichment as for those that don't need the extra support. Um, as Stephanie alluded to earlier, this allows for our students who are on IEPs in that curriculum support class or EL students who are taking enrichment to get elective experience during that flex time. So that's you'll see a lot of things about flex. We're calling it pause pathways to achievement, wellness, and success since we're a dog. Um, >> all right. >> That's what we've come up with. So for River

068Oaks, similar to what everyone shared, a big focus is on reading, but to highlight something that is changing at River Oaks, um, as a team, a leadership team and school site council, we brought forward of having a behavior expectation matrix. And so we're we had posters made and then we are going to have those all over our school. And then at the beginning of the school year, each person like an adult in that space is going to train students so that students know how to behave and what expectations are in the library or on the yard or in the cafeteria and go through all of that training and piggy back it with some assemblies. And then um hopefully it'll just reiterate what our angry traits of character are at River Oaks, but also feed into

069that positive behavior incentive system alongside of our school counselor and mental health clinician and how they can support students who need that support inside the classroom because what we've learned is that if you don't support that trauma, then they won't be able to access their education. So, we're trying to really hone in on that and it stemmed from the student survey actually of what came out of the results from our fifth and sixth grade students. Um, and then we are going to also tap into that with a fishbowl with our fifth graders and then our incoming fifth graders. So, our sixth and fifth graders to kind of figure out what else they need. And so, that's a goal of ours that's in our LCAP for next year. All right, thank you. While the SIPA goals

070may be the same across the the school district, each school site has their own unique uh ways on how to address them. So, it's nice to hear the the different strategies that are being put into place. So, I again I do appreciate everybody's hard work in this board recommendation approval. >> Just a quick comment. I want to thank our principles. They did a great job on the Sips and as you know most of our principles are new to their school site or new to the district and this year they inherited a SPA from a former principal and they've done a really good job all of them getting to know their staff, their students, their school and taken the time to reach out to stakeholders and take the SIPs through process and develop their own um

071new actions and goals um for their action steps for next year. So I'm really looking forward to the growth that they're going to make. Good job. >> I've said before, maybe not in this meeting or in this venue, but I think that a huge strength of our district is that we are K through 8 and that we are able to devote resources and attention to the needs of K through8 students. And I do think that what I'm hearing tonight really highlights that because we all have similar goals for our sites, but the ways that we're reaching their goals are very or not very different, but they're diverse. They definitely reflect the student population and what you're seeing and what you're hearing from your parents and your students. So, I think that stood out to me

072this year more than ever. So, thank you for presenting that and communicating that so clearly and helpfully. And with that, [snorts] I am going to make a motion to approve 242.734. >> Second it. >> Thank you. Have a motion from Katherine Harper to approve item number 242.734. Seconded by Wesley Kaggel. Annette Kunzie. >> I. >> Matthew Ward. >> I. >> Thank you. The motion carries. 4042.735. Board consideration of approval of the full option science system next generation science curriculum. >> This is not a routine item. We're so excited. >> Yes. Over the course of this year, we had a committee of K8 educators um complete the California Next Generation Science Standards tools for instructional materials evaluation. Um the acronym is time. It's easier to say. Um we thoroughly vetted state recommended materials. I'm looking at

073Leah because she was just a huge part of it as well. We advanced two top candidates um to our pilot phase and our teachers did a wonderful job of um piloting both programs. We completed six evaluation sections um that went along with the NGSS framework and we reached clear consensus um and are enthusiastically recommending FS um full option science system next generation for district adoption board approval. is recommended. >> I want to thank our administrators and our pilot teachers. >> Our pilot teachers did an amazing job. >> It it took a countless number of hours and um worked really well together. A great team. >> Yes. >> We made sure we had had teachers on our team. Um, they worked really hard and >> they did >> and as a team there were people in

074on our team who had never had an experience with the pilot and they took a lot away with them on it and I want to thank them because it is a hard task when you're asked to pilot and put in the work to go through the time the analyzing and instructional materials developed with K12 Alliance is it's kind of brutal. Um, but it's needed because you want to make sure that you're vetting something that you're going to your board. But we we worked really hard this year to get through it because it's generally a two-year process. But they did an excellent job. >> Yeah, we completed it in one year. >> Yeah. >> And I wanted to recognize Miss Simage, too. Curriculum adoption is a lot of work for a curriculum director and this was

075her first year in the role um learning the the responsibilities of the curriculum director as long as HR with certification um as certificated employees as well. So it was a big undertaking especially for your first year. So >> social studies is next. [laughter] >> We're going to give a year break. We are social studies. >> Yeah. Anything additional on that? Can I get a motion to approve 242.735? >> I'll make the motion. >> I'll second. >> Thank you. Have a motion from Matthew Ward to approve item number 242.735 seconded by Annette Kunzie. Katherine Harper >> I. >> Wesley Kaggel >> I. >> Thank you. The motion carries 40. I have 242.736 board consideration of approval of the 2627 expulsion panel. >> All right. This is an annual item that we bring to the board. Um

076and instead of conducting an expulsion hearing itself, the governing board of the school district may appoint an impartial administrative panel of three or more certificated persons to act on its behalf. So that it is recommended the administrators listed there be appointed to this panel if needed. >> I'll make the motion to approve 242.736. >> I'll second it. >> Thank you. I have a motion from Katherine Harper to approve item number 242.736. Seconded by Wesley Kaggel. Annette Kunzie. >> I. >> Matthew Ward. >> I. >> Thank you. The motion carries 40. >> And I just before I move on, I wanted to make a comment that this was the first year that I can remember in quite a while that we did not have an expulsion. And so that is really just a testament to the

077improvement of our school climate and culture and the great work of our administrators and our supporting staff at the school sites. So, it was great to not recommend a student for expulsion this year. >> I noticed that, too. 242.737 board consideration of approval of general contractor for site work for portable classrooms at River Oaks. All right. And so um we are in the process of getting a couple of portables installed at River Oaks for the expanded learning program. Bid advertisements were published on May 8th and 15th for the site work needed for the delivery of the portables. Um we received um let's see quite a few. We received five proposals from general contractors. Um the sub middle of the bids was due June 3rd and they ranged from $520,000 up to almost $800,000 for the

078site work. Um we are recommending um JWalt Construction Inc. they were qualified. They met all the qualifications and they also came in at the lowest bid of $520,800. And so we would like to move forward with them as a general contractor to do the site work and the installation of two portable classrooms at River Oaks Elementary using expanded learning program funds. >> Can I get a motion to approve 242.737? >> I'll make the motion. I'll second. >> Thank you. Have a motion from Wesley Kaggel to approve item number 242.737. Seconded by Annette Kunzie. Katherine Harper. >> I. >> Matthew Ward. >> I. >> Thank you. The motion carries 40 242.738 board consideration approval of amendment to the lease lease back contract for Valley Oaks multi-purpose room restroom and administration building additions. All right. So on

079May 20th, the board approved lease lease back contracts for this project at Valley Oaks and SMB James was awarded those contracts and they were able to start the pre-construction services and they have completed that and we are now bringing an amendment to the contract that has the guaranteed maximum price and the subleasase payments that would be paid for this project. This is just one. This is a smaller part of the project. It's increment one. There are two increments to this project. Increment one is DSA approved so we can move forward um with this project. We're anticipating um approval within the next couple of months for increment two and then we will bring that sub lease amount to the board. Um the project this for this project this is for uh a genderneutral restroom in the

080multi-purpose room. um reconfiguration of the staff parking lot, general site improvements, and also getting ready for the staging for increment too. Getting ready for um the demolition of the admin building and that and creating um a parking lot that we would be using when during construction and things like that. So, they can start working on that as um once this is approved. That would be the cost for increment one is a little over $1.5 million. There's a 5% contingency in there for construction and design. Total contingency is about $63,000. And so um could come in a little less than the 1.5 million depending on contingencies um with the project. But the um bid propos the amendment is here attached for you u as long as with the basis of the estimate from SMB James on

081how they're coming up with the 1.5 million um cost. And so board approval is recommended to start with this project. >> Can I get a motion to approve 242.738? >> I'll make the motion. >> I'll second. Thank you. Have a motion from Wesley Kaggel to approve item number 242.738. Seconded by Annette Kunzie. Katherine Harper. >> I. >> Matthew Ward. >> I. >> Thank you. The motion carries. 40. >> I have 242.738 or I'm sorry 739. Uh board consideration of approval of four new board policies. Okay. So, we have um four policies and ARS that we're bringing to the board tonight for action item. The sexual health and prevention instruction and comprehens comprehensive health education was reviewed with the board last month and we received comments that are noted in our minutes. And then the third

082is a board policy for management of district assets and accounts. And I'll ask Alejandra to highlight the minor change with that one. >> Yeah. So, um this is a a change that became effective this school year. We just um didn't update our board policy. I missed it in May. Um and what this means is the cost of um capital outlay materials have increased. Cost of goods increased. It used to be 5,000 and what um CD did recently last year announced that starting this new fiscal year it would move from 5,000 to 10,000. um and that way tracking um goods and services would be more aligned with what the cost of things are going up. So I am asking for to wave the first reading to ensure that we update this because that has been our

083practice. Skoey gave us that direction. I just missed that in May and would like to implement that because we've been doing this fiscal year questions. >> Should that limit the burden on your end if you're limiting the amount of tracking you have to do because the price of things >> it does. It does help on the tracking. It helps also on um trying to because capital items you are forever items you have to keep for records um which we code in my specific specific object code is the six and this would reduce that and then um see um title funds still require tracking for um I think it was 1500 but everything else is now moved up to that 10,000 um threshold. Any other questions? Thank you. [snorts] >> All right. Board policy 925 uh

0849250 is related to trustee monthly compensation or other benefits. Um, Assembly Bill 1390 was approved back um in October of 202025, which increased the amount that a trustee can receive for monthly compensation. Um, for a district our size, uh, trustees can receive up to $1,200 a month in compensation. Um, our current uh board has had the same compensation rate of $240 since 2019. Has not increased that um since I believe it was July 1 of 2019. And so we are recommending with this new assembly bill, I'm recommending um that the increase be um go from 240 a month to 550 a month. that is less than what you are even eligible to um to take for monthly compensation. Also with that um is monthly health benefit caps. Um a board member is eligible to receive

085the same cap that is equal to a classified employee member and that is currently at $1,100. That's the cap that classified members receive. And again since 2019 this has not been increased um as well. [snorts] And currently that rate is $635 a month. Um I'm recommending to increase that to $850 a month. Again, that is um it is under the the level of what is eligible. And so I would be recommending this change to be effective for the month of August 2026. Um I just had a comment and then I had a comment on some of the other policies from last month. Um and a question I guess too. So on this the board compensation I just wanted I think a lot of districts went straight to the max and I really appreciate that we've

086taken a judicious approach and not only for now but sort of moving forward as well. And so I just I just think that speaks to a lot to the district and the integrity in the district. So I just want to say thank you for that. And then my other comment and question was um I don't think we touched upon this last month, but I think it's important that uh the policies are also being updated for the Mimmude v. Taylor court case. And so I think that was noted in the package. So I just wanted to draw attention to that that that's a really important piece of those policies that are being updated with regards to um the sex education and the ability to opt out. And then also I had a question because we had

087talked about the materials us reviewing them and so would that come back as an action item or as an information item? >> It would come back as an information item. >> It would be an information. >> We don't need formal action of the board to adopt this instructional materials. It's not like the science or social studies or mathematics. It's just um it's a it's a district decision. >> But we will bring it to the board. >> Okay. So if we have comments then we can >> Yeah, absolutely. We'll bring it to the board as a report item so we can get your feedback. >> Okay, great. Thank you. >> Uh question and that kind of uh mentioned it, but uh what are what are the uh districts close to us? What are they doing for
