001Good evening. Tonight's special meeting of the board of education is called to order at 5:00 pm in open session. Roll call, please. Miss Armstrong, present. Miss Cron, present. Mr. Critzfield, present. Mrs. Garza, present. Miss Stewart, present. We have requests addressing agenda items. While meetings of the governing board are not public meetings, they are open to the public. Individual speakers will be allowed three minutes to address the board on each agenda item and the board will limit the total time for public input on each item to 21 minutes as per board bylaw 9322.2. Mr. Chair turning Thank you. Um I brought my calendar put all the dates in. Um the only thing is I I don't see like location. So it would be really great at least five times during the school year um to have
002a board meeting at a local school in each trustee district to um emphasize our neighborhood outreach and empowerment. That's something I've worked on so hard for the city of Belfflower and all three school districts to have neighborhood elections. Um I started with Downey Unified Param well then we went to Belfar City and we won the special election and then uh we got it at Paramount Unified and then I encouraged it here uh for Belfer Unified. I'm so glad you did it. And so I hope we could um follow through with neighborhood empowerment by having meetings like sometimes in the past they've had a lot of meetings at Ramona where I used to go but have like each each school in each district like once a year. That would be great for just this five times
003not every meeting because that that can be a lot for a road show. Thank you. Thank you. Um, just for clarification, at the top of the calendar, it does say regular meetings of the board of education will be held at the district administrator building, but I do understand your point. Thank you so much. All right. Um, before we move on, I just wanted to first off say thank you so much to Elaine and for Dr. Smith for working um, yesterday on your day off. I really appreciate that. Um, and all three of you taking your time to be here on a Friday. Um, so I appreciate that. I just want you guys to know that I respect your time immensely and it's always my goal to create less work for you and not more. So,
004I apologize if you were inconvenienced. And just on a personal note, as president and as a person and just in life, I take pride in being organized and prepared and procedures and protocols are very important to me. So, I will not let this happen again and I thank you for your support. All right. So, we have one item on this um item three calendar. Does the board have any questions or comments? All right. Can I get a motion to approve the revised calendar? You have that motion. Can I get a second? I second. Roll call, please. Miss Armstrong, I. Miss Cron, I. Mr. Critchfield, I. Mrs. Garza, I.
