008about the impact it's having on on our parents and students to be able to participate in things because they just don't even know that it's happening so that can be the net worth Helena put those message in to please um so saying that um we'll move on to the next item item 8 comments and reports by cabinet superintendent and so we'll start with you just want to say thank you to all the folks that are in our departments that are working behind the scenes that are getting everything ready for our staff to come back you've been buying several of our sites the board has you can see that there was a long ways to go in a very short period of time to get ready and it's their dedication their level of commitment getting that
009done and also for the folks that work here like are not counting purchasing staff they're working hard to get our retro out for our staff on certificated cuspid side they're working to make sure that we're closing our books accurately appreciated so one of the things that I'm really happy about being a human resources assistant superintendent is that we get to work with folks from hiring all the way to retiring and I'm very proud of our board and our district for supporting our new teachers and onboarding them with really two days of orientation on August 9th people science teachers new teachers were brought in before everyone else given an orientation at their school site to make sure they're acclimated to the culture of the school and the resources they're given some time to prep their classrooms
010lesson plan and prepare for our students on August 10th there was a collaborative effort for day two of new teacher orientation with pet services business services and Human Resources to welcome our teachers to the district to inform them of some of our initiatives our instructional strategies some of the expectations that the board had established along with the resources so is an awesome new teacher orientation and we are super excited for the new school year yes I just wanted to piggyback on your comment we had our first professional development day district-wide yesterday at a glass on high school we did ask participants it was their exit ticket to get out for feedback I did read all four hundred-plus of them and I just want to share seven themes that came out of those evaluations number one
011one thing that came one theme that came out was kudos that this what we did yesterday apply to different content areas so it's a lot of a lot of comments about Wow finally something that I can use in my math class my art class my GED class the second thing the second thing that came out was the appreciation of being in heterogeneous groups with different school sites and different levels maybe not so when they first got there they were like what's going on but the feedback on the forms definitely there was a lot of comments about how awesome it was to be able to work with people that they normally would not work with the next thing was how awesome it was to see our in-house presenters and the capacity building of our teacher leaders
012and seeing them on the stage and providing this professional development another thing which is good for us was more like what's next where can I find more resources you know what's the first thing I do the next thing was a willingness to try say I'm I'm gonna try this I commit to do this once a week I'm committed to this dream I just a lot of commitment statements second-to-the-last we've got a lot of good pointers and a lot of suggestions things that we definitely have not thought about as a Cali team so I'm excited to share that with the team some of the things that came out of that and then lastly the last thing that came out was the appreciation of the lunch boxes they really appreciated how quick it was to get in
013and to start eating some of them personally came up to me and said even though we might have sacrificed a little bit on you know a barbeque or tacos or me what we the little that we sacrificed we gained a lot by being able to get in quickly sit down and just have time with our our peers so just wanted to to show that what everyone let me start by saying again when some of the other people have commented on or notice the wonderful grand opening of the new entrance to Murray elementary school I heard a lot of comments from staff and from parents just about how welcoming the place was and some interesting comments about things that I hadn't thought just in terms of the design of the cement work and the pavers how
014it really moves families and makes you kind of walk right into the entrance following that the color scheme and get in there but just a lot of positive things and again thank you to all the people involved with that certainly two facilities construction crew the facilities team that supports it the MOT who worked so hard for it the teachers the staff who get input in terms of what they wanted and the board towards supporting this project for our schools and the community of course for voting for that the Medicaid so that we had the funds to actually address some really important issues as we're moving forward the next thing I'd like to share with you is this new website and I have to commend this vignette we were trying to keep it secret until here

026shy and give us your ideas I continue to make this a good place to showcase what's going on Board of Directors has five positions they call at large Hispanic Asian African American County and a neighbor and so those positions are actually elected by the delegate assembly remember so they're the ones that will vote in at the states be a conference in December for who will be the Newark at large this is just Oh nominations are open so any membership organization any organ is any district that the member can nominate somebody for director at large and Katherine oh man right now is the current bank director at large there's a motion second any other motion with me Mike motion passes 4-0 moving on we have item 10.2 approve the minutes of the regular meeting comment you're
027making 2018 there Marshall there's a motion and a second on any discussion I do a request for this I'm since we're now videotaping all our all of our meetings is there if there's a place that we hold our minutes is there where we can include a link to the actual video so somebody wanted to go in and see what would send detail you could go to the video thank you all right moving on we have we have either 11.0 the consent calendar all matters I sit under the consent calendar Olli will be considered by the board to be with Gene and will be enacted by the board in a single motion any idea any idea would be no discussion of these items prior to the term board staff and hope there's be no discussion of
028the items prior to the making of the actions of anybody was just to pull an item now seeing that is there a motion looking to improve consent concur I don't see any point to 20.6 all right moving on we have item 13.0 Human Resources we have item number thirteen point one is this Unified School District and these are such occasion association losses the educators association sunshiney proposal this is an information item only so thirteen point one is the district's proposal and relationships and kazusa educators association AEA this is these are the topics that we wish to bargain it's our responsibility to share with the public and that is what we are doing this evening on thirteen point one and on thirteen point two something similar with the Zeus Unified School District and Azusa Federation of
029adult educators level six zero nine eight CFT afl-cio sunshiny proposal and it's correct the same thing with ours is that Federation of adult educators the difference for this item is that Sousa Federation of adult educators anything and the district the same topics moving forward all right and I am 13.3 is just Unified School District in California School Employees Association reduce a chapter 299 correct that is the district's proposal of its intent to bargain with CSC a the topics listed and the attachment for the public to review all right so moving on at 13.4 I will open the public hearing sorry for public hearing on the California School Employees Association is used to chapter 299 collective bargaining agreement proposals for negotiation between is DC Unified School District and the CSC is TNC a proposal so the
030public can now open anybody wishing to address the board on this item please approach the podium I'll make a motion okay all right there's been a motion by all the questions that go by Yolanda Pena closed the public hearing motion passes 4-0 moving on we have item 13.5 the Board of Education is required to officially adopt the California School Employees Association proposals for the negotiations so early July it was announced an aluminum educated aluminate education was merging with more other companies to become one super company with the name of illuminate education and will have the backbone of illuminating one of those companies was a current product that we use which is used to be Edom x' had just been converted to io and so that's one of the companies that they were merging into as
031as soon as that information came out we held meetings with our directors with our teachers of special assignment to talk about the impact because we did not have to jump to the minute right now we could have waited this out a year year and a half until we were forced into it but we decided that it was the best thing to do we had a conversation with a ea president now uh just to be super heads-up and of course let her know that it would support all staff through this transition so if M&A education is on standby we don't working very close together so we can have a smooth transition into the school year yeah so it looks like there's a financial impact right here right now but there really is not I only made
032out of the out cap and so the amount of portioned to i/o is really really close to this amount right here the reason there is some funding right now is because we had negotiated with IO at the end of the year we felt that they didn't deliver some of the things that we had requested and we put a lot of work into it at the end of the year and just the product was not there and so we went to bat with the company and we were able to negotiate a hefty discount so that discount that we saved is what we're using to make up for jumping over to dominate but they're pretty much the same exact price initially the biggest impact is going to be now I'm going to be going to illuminate education
033for my district assessments we have plans on how we're going to do that illuminate education and up for all intents and purposes is more intuitive smarter and cleaner so we don't anticipate a huge you know mindset or shift and paradigm shift and the way they do things but we are ready to support that include that into our existing trainings that we have right now so that it's very minimal we're feeling in regards to that the ultimate goal is ultimate goal is that we would start off right with district assessment hey but we also want to be realistic we have worked with a company and we have struck a deal that if that's just impossible and it's going to cause more mayhem than then good that we would continue with io4 district assessment a and then
034jump over for B and C this is so there's three layers layer number one or the district assessments there are three a year for language arts and three a year for mathematics is what we have right now so it's layer number one and then layer number two is a lot of our teachers or departments or grade levels do common formative assessments and so this is someone where they would also house that information so luckily it is now within the same family so that should not be too big of a deal but that is something again that the moment we get this signed and going we're gonna start rolling up our sleeves with Marvin with our toeses with Jennifer myself to ensure that we work as exceedingly as possible to to turn on my son that
035is what we're expecting so because they bought out I know we thought that it was the perfect opportunity to jump over to this product we knew that if we factor children is instructed correct and we were gonna we don't know the timeline I do know some people in illuminate so I can get some straight we did not know that timeline it was gonna be a year a year and a half two years before they knock on your door and say because remember there's five companies coming together or that we're gonna knock on our door and say okay it's time you have to jump over now what we do know is that the people that are supporting us for heigh-ho their email addresses have already changed to eliminate so they're moving in that direction and we
036just felt that it would be the most prudent to get ahead of the game and just jump over now instead of being forced to do that the district before I came in eleven twelve if not maybe one two years before that the district had been looking into a variety different information systems to consider and haven't come to a decision and when I came in during that first year is when we heard about it and we went through the process again the second year in adopted enemies so that would have been in the 13-14 year [Music] I haven't seen that because really until aluminate came forward there was really almost only one option or two options one was Aries or something they offered that other piece too and I'm suggesting that we switch over but I
037think that it's to make sure like within a cycle we evaluate but what our current system offers I know and we're not bringing people up and they know with something like barely getting into Aries right and I think you for moving over to a system that that align do they have a whole comprehensive system I don't think it'd be good to read it for the board to understand like what would be a good timeline to evaluate research that is Marvin all right motion on the floor already right so okay item 15.15 policies in my love and 15.1 the first reading of board policies regarding community relations new amended or the view support policy administrative regulations and exhibits vp ten twenty youth services ii exhibit 1100 communication with the public board policy one one one two

041for any student I'm sorry let us see it in our report policies alright thank you so with that those word policies will be any other questions those word policy will be on the consent calendar at the next board meeting and with that we'll move to item six point out adjournment seven point at 7:00 p.m. and we are ahead of schedule have a great thing
