And I'm Aiden Shannon. I'm the a SP Treasurer at Y Valley High School. Um, we came to share some of our recent activities our school has accomplished and a few that we are continuing to pursue. So to begin off the year, about a week before the school year started, me and my SP team, we all met together and we started organizing our orientation where we would begin to welcome all of our students, giving 'em their new yonder pouches, different types of Trojan a year. Showed them all of our new clubs that are happening and we ended up also helping out

008with nutritional services. They gave out slushies to the students. We also had our counselors get counselors there giving our students guidance on the new programs happening. And then we got into different things with our orientation from senior packages and regular packages for PE clothes, senior year hoodies, shirts, stuff like that, and blankets and more. And then there off to you. Um, so our smack shark sales during our home football games this year have continued to be super reliable source of fundraising for all of our classes. Um, during our last home game on August 29th, all of our as SP members sold drinks and snacks to benefit our class of 2027, who is responsible for planning our prom this year. Um, also our freshman class sold their face painting services to our home fans and sophomores

009sold glow sticks to connect with our theme of Neon Mock out. Um, our homecoming week is coming up very soon. Um, homecoming will be on October 3rd and fourth. The game being on October 3rd. Um, spirit Week will happen as well that week. Uh, our homecoming theme is class nine. Uh, it will be the themes of Pascals and white and silver. Alright, so to get into the beginning of the year so far we've had our senior sunrise, which turned out to be just great. We had all the majority of our senior there. I just wanted to say that most of them, um, we have gone through that. We've gone through a few assemblies that have gone well. We've gone through all the foam pouches with all of our students and that's been going well. Actually.

010We've been improving with all of our sports teams. We've started off really strong this year. Our football team, our volleyball team, and our girls tennis team. We are looking to keep this year flowing and going very well. Um, and that's pretty much all that's happening to get high right now. Thank you very much. Are there Questions? Yeah. Are there any questions? Any questions from the board? No. Nice job. Thank you very much. Thank you. You're than welcome to depart. Thank you sir. Have a good evening. You, your honor. Thanks for your updates. Alright, that brings us to the office scope for legislative report. No report. No, no report. Okay. Okay. So we're gonna go to our certificated representative. Sorry, I was confused. Oh, Okay. With the start of the new school year, our members have

011been very busy welcoming our students and their families to our schools and starting the work of educating our students for another year. MTA members are proud of the work we do and believe our students deserve the best. So we were excited but not surprised to see unapproved test scores at the district, district wide back to school event. Our members' hard work is making an impact on the education of our students. MTA members are gearing up to do student centered union work. We're starting up a special education committee to gain knowledge, do research and work to resolve problems that our students and teachers encounter in special education. Our site reps are gathering feedback from members on the cell phone policy. Our bargaining team has put out questions for feedback for members to include what we bargain.

012MTA members are working on individual and site level power and advocacy to make sure our students get the best. We will begin signature gathering extended funding of Prop 55, which expires in 2030. If it is not extended, our district can lose up to 11.3 million in school funding. So please watch for more information and perhaps even an opportunity to join us in that work. Uh, we have started a health and welfare benefits committee to gain education and do research around our members' health and welfare benefits. And on September 8th, M-T-A-W-S-D met at the bar meeting table and across sites. MTA power was seen as our members wore their MTA short shirts to show their support and engagement for our union. The bargaining process has gone well so far. The work is challenging and lengthy this

013year because almost the entire contract is open. Our focus with bargaining is to have shared decision making and be able to recruit and retain highly qualified teachers because we always believe that our students deserve the best. Thank you. Any questions? I do have one, uh, that 0.3. I know I saw something down north of my house. There's that calculator for Prop 30 55. Is that what you put that through? Is that that number You just Um, Sorry, I didn't mean to, it came From CTA like from notion Of like, so from my understanding, prop 55 is, uh, tax on high income individuals that help finance the schools, right? Yes. Fund the schools. Okay. Thank you very much. Alright, Thank you. Appreciate it. Next up Marine Corps rep. Uh, no report Tonight. Thank you Lorraine. Thanks

The forms and foundations are anticipated to be completed this week and framing to start gonna be next week. So there'll be a walls done starting next week on our shade structures. Um, ready. Our protective way for engineered drawings from miracle structure and middle school was added to the design scope. So they're also gonna get a straight structure structure as well. Stadium improvements at 29 Palm High School in Valley

015High School. First up, we have 29 Palm High School. We see it with a civil engineer walk this week. We discuss that in plug control to the project at the stadium. Because of the recent plays we've had in past plays we've had as well. We also met with the architect last week to discuss design plans for a new concession building at 29 Palm High School. Ju Valley High School was scheduled. The, the civil engineer walked last week and issued a purchase order for the, uh, geotech and topal surveys for the, uh, soil samples and, and uh, elevations. Next up we have the real cable restroom building for 29 Palms Junior High School to go along with the kitchen project. We're waiting for preplanned check drawings from class A leasing with submittals approvals anticipated around October.

016Next up we have HVAC on various sites. This is, um, the plain new HVAC system for all three gyms at all secondary schools. So all three secondary schools in the project will get HVAC instead of swamp pool, along with a few more extra classrooms and cooling power, new cooling power, new HVAC back at OGA Elementary as well to complete that site altogether. Next up we have the, uh, cellphone CFA portable and play structures, which is new portables on miscellaneous elementary school sites. And I think there's also a one of the secondary school sites. This will let, um, Heidi have a special building for herself and the place structures that go along with similar to the, I'm sorry, CCA base play structures as well. And lastly, we have the PA and Bell system architect is done

017sidewalks with IT personnel at all sites. The project is in the planning stage. And that's the update I have for you all tonight. Are there any questions, your Honor? Yes. Um, where are the portables going again? The step portables? The special ed portables will be Condor Elementary. Oasis ada, and 29 Palm Junior High. Thank you. Any other questions? Yeah, That's, that's been a hot topic. Yeah, I really wasn't really, um, anyway, um, is there, I don't know if there's a way to expedite that because that is something that's been requested a lot, especially early in the school year. Like a lot of kids doing PE and they're like dying and then they had back to school things and the parents were like, what going on? So, um, I know there was some engineering that had

018to go Because created new. Right? We just had our first meeting on them last week. Okay. So we're talking with Trane and they're going guide us through the rest of the process. Great. The other thing is, I know the semi talked made a lot. Um, you guys are doing a lot, but I don't think the taxpayers know that. I don't know what else we need to do to make sure that they know the threats that we have. What 40 people in here, we know that. But whatever we can do to get that out, whether that's Facebook or whatever, I really think important the taxpayers know, um, all the great work that the district's doing. So we will work on that. But nice job. Appreciate it. We're happy that Z 1 0 7 0.7 is here.

019Any other questions? Thank you. Yeah, I have one more question. Sorry. You mentioned something about geotech samples for young high school. What, can you Explain what that means for geotech samples is the, uh, soil samples. Right. Um, so they'll, they'll dig down in the soil to test the soil And we're testing for what I'm not too sure what they test and Dave may be able to elaborate on that. Um, isn't That more like handle the weight of the stands? Yeah, that's, uh, primarily it. Um, we also look at the, you know, the, a lot of different factors regarding the soil, uh, constructability, as you mentioned, compaction is an element that, um, also looking at how well it is able to absorb moisture, et cetera. And those are cooperative. And that's specifically in regards to the

020stadium or other Stadium? Stadium, yeah. When they do a geotechnical, it's usually in the vicinity of where the construction gonna take place. 'cause sometimes you can have, I know it sounds silly, but sometimes you can have constructability going on in two separate parts of the campus and then they call for two separate geotechs. Um, likewise, you could have two schools that are relatively close proximity and maybe call for their own, um, geotech studies. Thank you. Any other questions? No, thank you. Yes, I, I've got one. What about the, uh, restroom in 29 Palms, uh, junior high schools? That's, you say you're gonna be Talking about that in October? We, we actually have, um, engineered drawings ready for 29 Palms Or 29 Palm Junior High School. They're just in the planning stage. We just have to

021go approve 'em. And then, um, all have been set for the engineering plans and everything, so they just ready to go. Okay. Good. Anyone else? The question I have is about the, um, new admin building. The junior high. Junior high. Yes. I didn't hear. We haven't, we haven't mentioned that yet because it is in the very early planning stages right now. So it'll be coming up here shortly. And I think based on our spending too, we're gonna pass that three, 2 million on the first trache. So that's probably a series BA Series. Possibly series B. Yeah. Great. Thank you very much. Alright, Thank you guys. Next up is public comment individual. I'm sorry. Sorry, I have an additional, I forgot. Yeah, news reports. I'm gonna invite Troy to help you with the next, uh, file

022information that we need to share. Alright. Board, uh, p board Dr. Vargas. This opportunity Last Friday we had a computer giveaway, a laptop giveaway at all our ary sites. Uh, both, um, junior highs, high schools, BlackRock and Ace and Plus, um, pretty good turnout. We got rid of about 1,177 devices. Um, we're going to be coming up with some makeup opportunities too and trying to get to the people that don't have transportation and stuff. So we're still working on it. The numbers will continue to grow. Um, but real excited opportunity. We had parents, grandparents, ands and uncles with, uh, children coming in. They were very excited. They didn't new devices or, or devices, but they were very excited for the technology. Um, it fair, like many of 'em probably didn't have technology at home. Um,

023the parents were, um, you know, we started at two, we ended at five 30. It was very hot, very humid. Um, parents stood in line for three alley but they still came in very positive, very appreciative. Um, and it was an amazing opportunity for all of us. So, uh, great thing to be a part of and, and great thing for our community. So it was, it was wonderful. Um, any questions? No. Are the, the younger students after we've gotten all of the secondary, do the younger students that get the opportunity as Well. Um, I had mentioned this before, we started out with about 9,000 devices. About 6,700 of 'em are destroyed by the students. So we're not gonna be able to fulfill every single student in the district right now. We'll be focused on the

024secondary first, then we're gonna focus on, um, right now I was mentioned to you by instructional service and Yale Group because they're actually getting homework at home that they could do if they have devices. So we wanna focus on them. We want to get the people that couldn't make it and do makeups for them. And then we want to get people that couldn't drive or don't have transportation or live out in the areas. And we're probably gonna get help with delivering those laptops. Once we're done with that, we will, we'll look at and see how many devices we have left and how far, how much further we could go. The other thing that we're thinking about is that sixth grade on the east end got, you know, that's probably the first group that we'll want

025if we have enough numbers of devices, is to get those to the sixth graders. And now at least we equal on both ends of the valley. Um, so right now we're gonna start through that, get through all those and then we'll see how many devices we have. Uh, obviously our goal is to get rid of all of them. We don't want to keep 'em, we don't want to put 'em on pallets for recycle and want put 'em into the, the community stand. So, uh, but how far can we go? I won't know until we get to that point, but our goal is to you, every one of them in the community in some way shape, that's still a function. They don't want the jump. It's a great program and this is, uh, I mean pending

026board approval, but this is something I wanna be Right. It is. Uh, however, all the devices that we gave away during dispatch were bought in 2020. So when, when COVID hit, we bought enough devices for every kid in the district, um, to sustain something like that annually, we should be buying 'em in smaller chunks on a five year basis and then get rid of those ones that meet that five year criteria and then setting it up for an annual type of replacement. Unfortunately with uh, um, COVID and purchasing a all, we purchased them all on Eser funds on the first round. Purchased 'em all at the very end of Esser funds on the second round. So we bought 'em all district wide all at once. The goal will be to buy 'em annually in a

027systematic way where we can do this on an annual basis. We're just not there yet, but we are getting to that point eventually. Gotcha. But there should still be some units that right There will be obsolescence In our Eyes. Yes, time and, and we bought 2025 or 2024 ish five. We bought enough for all the kids and then we bought another thousand to fill the secondary classrooms. So there was kind of a little bit of a break, but not the numbers that I'd like to see that we could dish out on a manual basis and sustain it manually. So I feel like probably in another couple years when we get on that system where we're buying 'em annually and replacing 'em on an annual basis in, in groups, um, then we'll get to the point

028where we can get 'em out annually, um, based on that. Great. Well thank your crew because I know you don't do all that work. So Yeah, it Leading that charge. Yeah. Thank you very much. IT department was, was wonderful. They all stayed late. They all, none of 'em complained about it. They were all very excited to give the devices to the parents. So it was, it was really good. And many of the people that work for me are from our community. So they were really excited about giving this opportunity to these kids. The other thing is we're an IT to make money with computers. All we needed is the computer. We can make money. So we see the potential as something very great to offer to these kids in this family. So it was really

029exciting for us. Fantastic. Thank you very much. Welcome. Outstanding. Great job ip. Alright, now we'll move on to public comment. Individuals may address the support on the issues within the jurisdiction of MUSE Board of Education that are not on this agenda. There is a time limitation of three minutes per person, 20 minutes per topic hearing public comment, please refrain from a clause or side commentary to ensure the board members can properly hear all public speakers. Members of the public are expected to maintain a professional courte decorum during these comments. Inappropriate behavior which disrupts, disturbs or otherwise impedes the oral conduct immediately result in ture of your public comment privileges. The board is prohibited by state law from taking action or discussing items not included on the printed agenda. Public comments are specific agenda items will

030be deferred into consideration of the item on the agenda. Can you just, you see me? Yes. Okay. Looks like we have Kelly begin. I'm nervous wreck. Weird because I've been in this district forever and know most of you. But this is first off not on the topic that I put up there, which was tk. Tk. Um, I need to do a shout out. I got flooded, my classroom got flooded on August 25th, I guess. And it was quite the mess. I need to shout out Cal Corn specifically and Mike Montoya, they came over and extracted the water themselves in their dress shoes. And then I know for a fact that Kyle came back over Labor Day weekend and sanitized and whatever they do with it after the mold testing came back negative. So personally wanna

031shelf them out because that was above and beyond and we were displaced for about a week with little people. That's not fun. But he did get us back in before, back to school night, so I appreciate both of them. Um, so on the other note, tk, thanks for the opportunity to speak today. I have some concerns about the TK program. I heard that last school board meeting, you guys had quite a discussion about it. Um, so some of these things are specific to 29 L and others are across the district. Um, for many of these students, this is our very first opportunity with any kind of schooling and their families. So we have a huge onus to make it successful and positive for them. And unfortunately, their love of learning, their love of our district,

032their love of teachers can be made or break in the TK years used to be kinder. Now it's tk. We can also create eight and discontent. And right now at our specific school we have one TK classroom that has faced significant staffing incivility in 20 days of school. That classroom has had five different teachers, including one substitute that took 10 days of the five. So the other 10 days, four different teachers. This revolving door of substitutes is far from ideal, especially for the youngest learners that require way more consistency and stability to thrive. Several of the students in the classroom have IEPs that are not currently being instructed by a credentialed teacher, let alone one with the appropriate TK credentialing, which raises serious concerns about the quality and appropriateness of their instruction and day day

033support. To understand the gravity of this issue, it's important to highlight the California Education Code section 4,800 subsection G subsection four mandates specific qualifications for TK teachers assigned to a classroom after July to, uh, first 2015. By August 1st, 2025, teachers must have the regular multis subject credential plus 1 0 3 options possess 24 semester units in early childhood. Have a professional experience in a classroom setting with preschool aged children designated by I'm my time 24 units of education or hold a child development teacher permit according to all the webinars and legislative later that I can find as of today. These requirements were under conditions of apportionment and they're mandatory and cannot be waived by the State Board of education. Can count it's three minutes. I know. Okay, Thank you. Next up is the adoption

034of consent agenda items nine eight through nine C. We do have an amendment to the date on the certificate of personnel recommendations. It had 24 25 6, 24 25, which obviously pass it 25, 26. Does the board have any items for to pool for discussion? I have one item which was nine a two classified. And it was just for clarification. So, um, we're talking about the ias and I noticed that memory says there were six ias with six hour positions that were, that were occurring. Is that correct, Stacy? Sorry. It's the, it's the new positions down here. IA platform. I tenor bus. There's four bus and one east. What does that look like? What's the, the goal those get hired? Where do we place those Will be a tk. So the CDE allows as it

035as our contract for 24 a, uh, kids in a TK classroom. But the ratio must to remain one. So those would go into classrooms that where we have TK needs of over 20 students. But under 24 it'll be an even better ratio. It'll be an H one ratio, but it'll meet the requirements of the law and, um, still allow the, those TK for our waiting list to get in. And so they'll start at the homeschool where we currently see those overages and, but there'll be itinerant 'cause from year to year if another school has that overage, we'll be able to move them on the eastern List. Any other questions? Did you miss e Um, So we, we, we did hire, we do have one instructional, we we do have one instructional assistant that we hired

036for tk. So these that we're talking about here are new positions that you are approving for us to hire. Right? So they have not been hired yet. If you look at the employment of classified personnel, which is above there, that's where you see new people that have been hired between last board meeting and this board meeting. And I do see two, um, of the IA classrooms that are on there. Do we have anyone in mind for this? For a class that doesn't have a teacher that we have a revolving that, do we have anything in place for that besides 30 day? I think that information was all. Oh, was that, that I sent. Okay. Okay. Objection. Okay. Thank you. Um, so if we approve this this evening, that going into like tomorrow, like that quickly,

037We've already donated anticipated and we've already, we're already poised. We are poised to schedule interviews that you approve tonight. Okay. So you can see interest already. Okay, great. Any other questions? Actually we were, we were supposed to adopt the consent agenda A through C, uh, without the poll items. So can I get a motion for that? So Move by Bianca. Second. Second by P. All in favor A. Aye. Any nays? Five zero. Now we'll go back to item 9 8 2, which was pulled. May I get a motion? So Second. Moved by Roberta, second by Bianca. All in favor? Aye. Aye. Any nays?

039where the accounts receivables, cash receipts, and budget transfer transaction report. Now we do we have any future agenda items or we'd like to address that on the 23rd. Okay, so we'll address that on the 23rd. With that being said, on the school board calendar, we have a board study September 23rd, 2025 at the JTPD center at 1:00 PM Our next scheduled board meeting will be October 14th, 2025. We also have a joint board meeting with CMC on November 13th, 2025. That leads us to the very last piece, which is the board comments. We'll start with Pete this evening. Well, yesterday I had a chance to go out to several of our schools. I, that's what I like about this job. We get to go out and we get to impose ourselves on those schools. Uh,

040but I really enjoyed it. One of the things that I thought was pretty neat about the, the elementary schools was the fact that almost every teacher's classroom that I went in and I was without the principal. Um, teachers were really excited about starting their first reading groups and how well that was going. And they were really excited about their classes. And I would like to think they're not just blowing smoke just because I'm in there. So I'm, I'm really thinking that, that that's a real positive. So, uh, hats off to the teachers. Real good job. Thank you Pete. Missy, I Truly have been visiting the site. Um, some of you haven't been there yet, but I am coming. I'm on my way. Um, I just wanna say I have seen some fantastic stuff going on.

041Every site has been excited and moving and just thrilled about what's going on. I just want you to know we're here to help you. If there's anything else we can do, thank you So much for letting me visit. Thank you Missy. Bianca, Just thank you for everyone, um, cabinet, everyone for coming out consistently. Um, I've been to three schools so far this school year and, um, it's just really exciting to see all the kids and see all the teachers. Everyone's excited. So I'm excited for what this year has to bring. I'm excited what our board is gonna do this year. I feel really confident. So thank you all. Thanks Erica. I don't really have any comments. I love what our, um, MTA rep said about shared decision making that I'm really happy to hear that.

042And thank you all for being here tonight. Thank you Brett. Um, wanna recognize our student reps.
