[Music] Okay. We're going to move on from where there is currently a person at SB who is interested in joining, so they are completing the form. We can begin. Yes. Let's begin. This, here we have Rut Alaz, so she is a candidate for both positions, secretary and chronometry, which is being a time monitor. Are you going to say a few words to us? Yes, thank you very much. Good afternoon everyone. This, I have a father from the dark side. I have a daughter there, she's getting her degree, and I have another child from our beautiful daughter, and I

017just want to say that I feel very happy to have trained at the table, and two people are going to be re-elected, right? So, I would like to be there again if possible, and not give it another chance. I mean, I've learned a lot since I started; I didn't know anything. We've talked about reclassification and today's investment and many other things, and everything I've learned I've shared with other parents, and I'd like to keep learning because there's a lot to learn for both positions, right? Okay. Yes, do you want both or are you just going to run for it, basically ? Okay. I want to stop it or very well. Well, that's all. Thank you very much, Rud. And a round of applause, please. Let's move on to the next candidate. This one, we have

018Daniela Millán, she is here present. It appears that he was unable to attend this time. She has three students, one in fifth grade, one in second grade, and one in kindergarten, and she is also interested in being part of both positions, both secretary and timekeeper, to measure time, right? Monitor the time. We're going to talk to Alejandra Ruiz Rubio from the Chávez School. A round of applause, please. He's going to say a few words to us. He is also positioning himself for both positions. Good afternoon. Ah, you can try. Let's move on to technical problems. One minute, please. And I, my first Spanish language, my eldest son was resurrected to a certain grade. And I believe that our voice as parents is very important to participate and be part of the decisions to support and

019help our children in the future. Applause. Thank you so much. And we're going to move on to Stephanie Vera next. She belongs to the Steinback school and is interested in enometer, excuse me, chronometry, right? The time measurer. Go ahead, please. Thank you. Applause. Donor. Good afternoon everyone. This, I'm going to know, my name is that. This is my first year as I'm here to say that my daughter takes a special SBC class and I'm a regular mom of a special girl whose first language is Spanish. I was also interested in this, this, well, being part of this because what special education provides is not the same as what it provides. My daughter, who is a pig with a disability, struggled a bit, but she is learning all of English, although sometimes she gets frustrated. And

020that's why I would also like to represent those children who are in special education and whose parents are happy, sorry, who talk about home and who are learners. A round of applause, please. Thank you so much. Thank you all so much for your kind words. Now let's vote. Uh, let's flip a page, but I don't know if it's been updated. Yes, yes, yes, Stephanie's name was updated on them so that they can go ahead and vote. The members are currently—I don't know if everyone is present—but the members are the only ones who can vote. So if there are no members, then there won't be a vote, right? On that issue. The pages will be turned over to the Álvarez family; they may or may not have some words. We're going to give you a few

021minutes to make your choices regarding the candidates. If you can, please write the name of your school on the ballot, so we know who voted. I also want to tell you that there are people who are voting for whomever they like on that issue. I sent it, we need it now. Yes, there are two vacancies, one for timekeeping and one for this secretary position. There seems to be something going on here too. Okay, let's add another candidate. Next, they're going to come forward to say a few words, to share with us, right? Um, what would be the reason you're interested in joining our panel? Welcome. Applause. Very good. And if you could let us know what positions you would like, whether secretary or timekeeper or both. I don't know how the weather monitors take the

022time to help us stay informed . For example, if you'd like to be part of monitoring time, which is called timekeeping, this basically helps us keep track of time, so we don't go over the limited time we have, so we can respect everyone's time and help each other finish the meeting on time and go home . and as a secretary. Basically, the position of secretary involves taking notes, for example, if there was a presenter, the presenter's name and a brief summary of what they were presenting, right? Notes are taken on things that come up, things that stand out, and so notes are taken, and so, for example, the minutes, which are like the notes on the meeting agenda, these are written down and presented as I see them. That's what I know. Those are very

023good questions. Thank you so much. August, I'm here because I know that these questions give me the opportunity to learn more. I'm also interested in having this opportunity to invite you. Thank you. Perfect. Oh, yes, thank you very much. If you could please write your name on the ballots because we did n't have time to write it down, we would like to include you in this vote for the time being, the timer. Yes, thank you very much. August 8. Augusto, Adolfo, Adolfo Ochoa, excuse me. Thank you very much, Adolfo Ochoa. Yes please. [Music] Yes, from the school [Music] time monitor. [Music] How cool. I'm going to help. Ah, very good. Thank you. Orange, school again. A reminder: please write at the top of the ballot paper which school you belong to. Thank you. I'm going

024to vote. I 'm thinking, I'm thinking a little bit that it's a bit complicated. Yes, yes, thank you. I read it, yes. But I don't think I can't because of her . I think it's a bit complicated. individual. Let's go individual. Good luck. Okay. Good luck. This one, there are still some slips of paper missing because it seems there are two missing right now. Okay, I need a minute, but let's review. I'm going to pass that on, it's to continue with Ah, yes. Now we're going to move on, excuse me, while we're still here with the voting and I'll do the count. We will continue with the agenda. We have Sarah from the human resources department. Let's move on to the annual review of complaint notifications, which is called uniform complaint. So, you may have

025heard it as a uniform complaint, it's just to let you know. So, one up and one up. Thus, there is a question about the voting. You select one for secretary and another for weather monitor. That's one of each group. Nothing else. Thank you. Good question. And at this moment, Sarei is passing around the documents, basically a copy of the presentation, so that you have it, right? for your own information. Thank you. Thank you so much. Thank you so much. Good morning. Good morning . Good afternoon. My name is good afternoon. My name is Ramirez and I am presenting on behalf of human resources. Oh, I'm also here as a parent, but what we're going to talk about today is the constant complaint procedures, or in other words, uniform complaint procedures. So, those procedures are used

026to enforce violations of educational laws and regulations , both federal and state. It's to keep up with the laws and ensure the safety of your students. Ah, this list here presents all the ways or information on how claims can be made . Ah, but the district's goal is the early, informal resolution of complaints. provided it is possible and appropriate. Ah, we always ask parents to start with school first. If possible, please contact the school secretary or administrator first. Obviously, if it's appropriate. Oh, and for complaints that cannot be resolved informally, the district directs the public to use the uniform complaint procedures. In other words, it is the form that can also be found on the website and in all schools. However, not all complaints fall under the constant stream of claims. Another complaint that might

027be made is the complaints about Williams. Williams has been complaining about a lot. Williams addresses complaints about educational materials, facilities, or vacant teacher positions. Schools or classes must post notices in each classroom informing parents where to file a complaint, as parents have the right to ensure the safety and well-being of their children. You can also find this information in each class or in the offices. Ah, to conclude, this is always the goal of the district and the district employees. We are here to work, to solve any problems you may have, and obviously with the priority of the safety of your students to give them the appropriate education. And if you have any questions, please end this presentation. But if you have questions, always feel free to call our offices and ask, or introduce yourself to

028your director to see if there is anything they can help you with. Where can the papers or complaints be located? This can be online or can also be located at our office. Our main office is located at 155 Parten Road, which is in the Visal district. Or you can ask the secretary. Yes, yes, she can make a copy for you because it reaches the point of being a uniform complaint procedure because they want to make sure the complaint is trusted and that they resolve your complaint. So, in this case, you can request that when you arrive at the district, your information be anonymous, but the district will ask for your information in order to contact you and address your concerns. Okay. Questions. When the complaint, what is the complaint about, is it about a school?

029You can go directly to the district office, or you can first speak with the school principal so that the principal can always ask that because we also feel the urgency of your problem and that it has been resolved. Ah, we would like it to start with the school. If the school can solve the problem instantly, it's a better priority for them to do so. But if you reach a point where you feel you have already made the complaint several times, or feel you have made it more times, or it is a matter of safety for your student, then we ask that you do it in the district. But first we would like to have communication with you and with the directors or the office so that we can solve your problem as soon as possible.

030How long will it take to receive? So, when complaints come in, they usually come in to the clerk who covers the office in the district, and she reports it to a school principal, but she also reports it to the assistant superintendent of human resources. This report is for both of you, the principal who is in charge of the school and the Assistant Superintendent. And they both look at the report and try to contact you as soon as possible. Obviously, seeing weekends, they try to contact you within two to three days . Thank you very much, and let's hope this doesn't happen, but feel free to ask there in the district as well. Okay, now we're going to go through... we're going to go through the following. Ah, let's continue with the discussion about the voting

031on the statutes. Uh, we still need time for the voting, okay? Then I'm going to pass the microphone to Dr. Álvarez. Do you have a copy? Ah, hopefully at the tables right now in your group you can review them one more time because today we are going to vote. If you look at the blue one, those were suggestions you guys made the other day. So, if you see blue, those are areas where you commented on it. So, we're going to give you like 10 minutes to refresh your groups. Does anyone need a copy? We have it in English and also in Spanish. [Music] So, now you're going to read, look at the differences, and we're going to rotate. So, the blue part is new. Everything else is the same as they saw it last time.

032Facebook. [Music] basic rules of the rules of having them organized on Facebook most [Music] has to do to do most. So, version 3.4 in Spanish was a change. He did n't copy well. Already. Uh-huh . So, I'm going to leave it there for you to read. Ah, there are questions about 3.4. Now they can go to 4.9. I ca n't copy well anymore. The information is already available. I don't suppose I have the information . So here it says, "The only people who can vote are those who have a child classified as an English Learner and who were elected as committee members." Questions. We have to have 49% of 51% of people who are classified as English Learners, and 49% can be other participants. But this is saying that people have to be elected during

033ILAC to be representatives. Yes, that's right. Yes, that's how I understand it. Yes. So, are there any questions about this? Uh, another change is 5.4. Only elected ILAC members can vote. Administrators, district employees, or parents who are not classified as English Learners cannot vote unless they have been formally elected to a school ILAC, and even then, they cannot make up more than 49% of the committee. So, it's mandatory that 51% be people who have children who are classified as English Learners or parents who have English Learners. That's right. It has to be 51%. Who has the question? Uhuh. Uh, yes. Well, that's saying that they can participate if only if they have children. And they're included as, uh, if they don't have an English learner child, they can qualify, exhausting 99% of the committee. 51%

034of parents have to have English learner children. Confusing. So, that's saying that you do n't have a vote, but if you do have children, that's something I have to figure out. Then we can vote, and I can go back and look at the state statutes to be sure, but the votes are for more for the parents who are here, but I understand if you're an administrator who has children, then if you're part of the committee then you can vote, but if you're not... But, but if it's from a different school... If it's from a different school... Yes, that's it . She can be Loya's representative if the community votes her as their representative. Yes. That's it. Okay. So it's administrators employed by the district or parents who aren't classified as learners. Okay. In their own

035school. Yeah. [Music] So, if They're understood, but it didn't print well, that's why I'm going over it here. Yes, we need to work on this. And the next one, I think many suggested rules of order. So here's 6.1, and it didn't print. Ah, okay. We'll use the basic rules of Robert's Rule of Order to keep meetings organized and fair. A majority, 51% of the members, must be parents or guardians of students, English learners. To make decisions, a majority, 51% of the elected members, must be present . And the meeting order will be: open roll, forum, approve agenda and minutes, reports, pending matters, new business, audience comments, announcements, presentations, and closing. So, ah, I don't know if you have any questions about this, excuse me, when using the rules, you have to follow them. There are

036rules that, for example, now, in what had to be changed, things had to be changed, for example, things that are wrong. It has to be said, it has to be noted, there has to be a vote, that's why, I mean, you have to ask for... a... First consent, second consent, and then voting. Yes, that has to be done because it's within the rules, and I think we need training on this as well. Oh, so that everyone is... Ah, uh-huh . Yes, because that's already included in the rules. We're already doing it that way, right? Because also, within the rules, how much time does the person who wants to make a complaint have? They ca n't speak for more than two minutes, and they don't need to be answered. We've already asked for a moment. Within

037the rules, which we use to avoid any problems, and I put basic rules because we're not going to be like... we want to follow the rules, but also, sometimes parents want to speak, and we want to hear each other's presentations and all that. So, part of Robert R, we do want to use... because it's more written in a district meeting here, in a committee like Dilacá. We want to involve more voices, so we can basically use a role order and all that, but there's a time we want the parents to... Participate, ask questions. So, uh, I don't know if you want it basic or if you want, like, within what you're saying, the rule is put in, right? For example, if we have, you want to give the table 30 minutes for each person to

038speak for one to two minutes . There are several people who can speak at that moment, and maybe with that, what you're saying we can put in the notes. So there are 30 minutes because right now we don't have that. So we have to set 30 minutes so that parents can collaborate. Oh, or if you want to do that. There are comments. If you can talk amongst yourselves right now, then we can all hear you. I want to change that, what this language because so to make. They are the administrators at Tell me English to Oops. Ch. Okay. There are comments about Robert Rules. Can you bump it up a little where we left off here? Is there anyone who wants to comment about Robert Rules? Go up, [Music] it seems you have a question.

039More than anything, I wanted to emphasize that this is for those of us who are part of this school of me It would be helpful if we had a little support for training . Okay, good. Thank you very much. Well, lastly, the law firm representing the district, I do n't know if we could talk to them so they could give a presentation on how to follow a basic rule. And I think it's a good idea, and maybe inviting someone who already knows a little bit could present something basic that we can use here. Thank you. Okay. Any other questions? Are we good with this? Okay. So let's go back to the question. Oh, because it says there, "Oh, they cannot vote unless they have been formally elected to a school board." Yes. That means that

040even if they're not children, adults can run every day. Yes, they can run, but 41% of the members have to be English learners, and that's why it's very important right now that the schools are holding elections. That's why it 's very important to know who, because parents can come from the community here, but the people who want to vote are the people who were elected in the schools as representatives. And of these representatives, 41% have to be parents whose children are classified as English learners. That's why we have to count what the majority of parents are, and if we don't have a balance, then we have to find someone to do that. Yes, they can vote. No, they can't vote. Those who aren't members can't vote. If they aren't members, they can't vote. They can

041be nominated, but if they're going to vote, they have to be nominated, voted in at the schools to be representatives. No one else can enter to vote. When they're doing the nominations, is the information sent to everyone, or do they send it to everyone? To everyone. Okay. The information should be for everyone, but sometimes, depending on what it is, they only send it to the people, to the parents who belong to English learners. Good questions. Are there more? [Music] We all can, but only those who have an English learner position can be representatives because they can be parents. Yes, but they have to vote. In schools, a representative during the school council. Well, the council depends. First, they have to form a committee in the schools, and there in that committee— excuse me for interrupting,

042but could you respond? Excuse me. Yes . Yes, excuse me. Okay. Okay. So, in a school, it's mandatory by the state that each school forms a committee called the IVA, English Learners Committee. This committee. There, they can decide what they want to do. Have the board, as well as no longer just with English Learners, and they are the ones who can vote and make suggestions to the school council. But we have some schools that decided they wanted to combine the two boards. If they combine the boards, then at the council meeting, they have to dedicate time to this committee to listen and also inform the school that they are making recommendations at the meetings . So, it depends on that. That IVA group is going to nominate someone to be a representative here. Those people

043can vote. If you're not a representative, you can come, welcome, but you can't vote. So, in the committee, the committee It's the people who are going to vote, who can come and vote. And the thing is, throughout the district, we're listening to what's happening in each school and we're learning from each other. All the presentations, you can go back to your schools to report on what we've talked about. So, during the school council meeting, or if you don't have any other option, each school must have its representative. Right now, we have some schools that haven't elected anyone yet. So, in these past few weeks, I'm hearing that they're doing that. So, for the next meeting, we must have representatives. So, for Juan, there's going to be a timeline to choose representatives for each school. Yes,

044because previously we didn't have one, so a lot of time would pass and there was no representative. So, we have to set a timeline to make it almost mandatory that each school has a representative, right? And you have to have that noted down, right? So that each school has a vote, right? Yes, because if, like today, there were some schools that didn't have a representative, then they don't have a vote, then that community is left without information, and the parents... They don't know what's happening in the district. So this year it was mandatory for each principal to have a meeting for English-speaking parents to ask what they wanted to do. Some decided they were going to have their own board and separate the two boards. They have one board. I went to Ced. Those parents

045decided to have two boards. They have an English learners committee and they also have the school council board separately, but there are other schools that want to combine them and that's fine too, but it 's mandatory during the council meeting that they have time for parents to report what they learned here, and so on, to have more communication. So, for the meeting in October, we expect to have new representatives in all 12 schools. Dr. Albert, a question, right? Um, for example, when we were talking earlier about the representatives, for example, like Oscar Loa, for example, there weren't any representatives at the moment, there were going to be elections, but we have a parent present who arrived, but the parent present has to be voted on in order to validate the vote in this case of

046the selection. Today. Yes, that school vote will be voided. So, yes, because they have to be elected representatives . So, when the schools vote, they're saying, "You're going to represent me on the board." But the principal is the one who represents the school. Yes, they represent the school, but it's for parents, this board. So they're here to support, and the state rules say you have to be elected parents. Yes. Yes, but on the school council, they do have one vote, they can vote, but they have to be elected representatives. That's it. Uh-huh. So, maybe you have to live in each place where you were elected. Yes, that's why . So, what? Well, you could say, from such and such a school, call its name and say if they don't count the call. There was a

047question, for example, and the representative who looks at the school level, for, ah, can't attend that district. It would be okay if a spouse, for example, lived in the place of the directly elected member . On that occasion, they can't have two representatives. Someone is going to tell us that someone else can come, but they have to vote at their school to do that. So, if you prefer, I'm not going to make an announcement. Okay. Ah, well, due to all this updated information you're presenting, I feel that in your council schools, there are several schools that have mentioned they're just now holding their elections. So, since it seems most appropriate to me, we're going to postpone this vote and review it so there's more opportunity to have more people who want to be elected in

048this case. Yes, because there's more clarification, more information. So, therefore, what's happening now is going to be canceled because there are many updates, right? So that's the decision we're going to make. Thank you very much. Are there any questions about that? We can tell the schools that for the next meeting, so that it's valid. Exactly. And now, due to these changes, we're going to ask that each of the schools please bring their student representative to be present so that the vote is valid and there's more clarity. Right? So, how are we going to proceed if you want to vote, or okay, on the bylaws today? You'd like to proceed to vote on the bylaws. Well, but we're in the same boat , right? Because the representatives aren't here. I feel like we're going to have

049to stay the same. We're going to propose the voting on the bylaws because we're talking about a lot of corrections and clarifications that still need to be made. So, to do that and for the vote to be correct, please, it's going to be important to bring the next representative to the next meeting. In this case, it's going to be on October 21st, our second meeting, excuse me. And well, with that, I'm going to pass the microphone, with my heart a little broken, but I'm going to pass it to Dr. Álvarez for a few words. Okay, to finish, I want to announce that the meeting will be from March 4th to March 7th, 2026. So, more information will come with that. I do n't know if you wanted Let me talk a little bit about the

050meeting, the school council training we had . Did you participate in that? Yes. Do you mean to tell me? Yes, yes. Uh, yes. Uh, last week we had the opportunity to participate, it was on September 18th at the school. We had training regarding the school council. There were representatives from the Monterey County Department of Education giving training. Uh, it was very informative, very informative. We had the opportunity at each table to review all the information, to update ourselves to be more informed about how it works and how the election is also. It was very informative, I don't know if you had the opportunity to be there, but it was very good, to clarify many things. Oh, and I think we're going to have even more clarity next year to proceed, right? Because there are issues

051of financial selection, how that money will be managed, what it's needed for, for the English learner children, and regarding the difference between ILAC and the school council . Well, there isn't much time to talk about it, but I do n't know if Alber would like to speak a little more, but I think it's an excellent opportunity. Um, I'd like it to be for every year because I don't know what the others think , but thank you very much. Okay, I have an announcement, and I'm going to read what I'm going to say. Dear Dilacdac community, with much gratitude, I want to thank you for the collaboration we have shared over the years. It has been an honor to work alongside you and I truly believe in the work we have accomplished together. I know that

052each of you will continue to impact your schools and our district in powerful ways. My last day at Alizal will be September 30th, as I will be starting a new role as Associate Superintendent in Greenfield, although I will no longer be here in person. Please know that I will be cheering you on from afar and celebrating the many achievements I know Alizal will continue to reach. Thank you again for your collaboration, your dedication, and your trust. I wish you all the best as you continue to uplift and empower our families and students with gratitude. Good afternoon, congratulations. Thank you. I would like to take this opportunity, on behalf of all the parents, to Thank you for all your work, which has done so much good for our district. It has truly been a very positive

053change . We have followed the guidelines set by the previous person in charge, and I believe that this parental involvement has grown and will continue to grow, thanks also to your efforts in bringing all the schools together. So, we wish you all the best as a parent and as a family member, and thank you very much. Thank you. I'm going to speak to Nayeli now, to respect everyone's time. I'll speak directly afterward. We want to thank you for everything, for all the lessons you taught us, for all the experiences we had together, which were many, very many, and very beautiful. Thank you so much for always being there for us when we didn't understand or know how to do things. You were always there, always there to help us. Thank you so much, many times

054over. Thank you. And with that, I'm going to... well, before I move on to Rut At the same time, if you'd like to come quickly because we're about to close the meeting, and Rudes is still here again. I just want to say that I'm very sad, but I'm also happy because we learned so much from Dr. Álvarez, and despite everything, it was a huge sacrifice to get her doctorate, and I'm very happy because we shared so many things, and I also learned about this district work, which I didn't know anything about, and she also helped parents a lot when we went to CABE, she helped us all, right? So, I congratulate her, and I also wish her all the best, and we're going to stop her. So, for the next meeting, Ms. An García and

055Mr. Castro will manage and continue, waiting to see who will take my place. So, maybe in November, I think, at that time we'll see who will take this position, but from the bottom of my heart, thank you for everything, and have a good night. We're closing the meeting at 7:35, and the next meeting is on October 21st. Thank you very much.
