Next, I'd like to recognize my partner in education, Georgin Dunlap. Georgin, if you could join me. All right. It's my pleasure to recognize Georgin Dunlap for her incredible dedication and service to our school community. Education is a shared responsibility and Georgin has consistently gone out of her out of her way to support students, teachers, and families alike. Georgin has been an active member of the Willow community since her daughter Evelyn began kindergarten. Over the years, she had served the PTA many roles, including historian, fourth, vice president of volunteers, president, treasurer, and on the PTA council as secretary and program chair. In every position, she has brought organization, creativity, and heart while keeping the needs of students and
007staff at the forefront. Her leadership and support have touched nearly every aspect of our school. From coordinating programs to encouraging parent involvement and assisting teachers whenever needed, Georgin's contributions have strengthened our school community and enriched the educational experience for our students. Willow is deeply grateful for her years of service, leadership, and commitment. And it is why I'm recognizing Georgin as this year's partner in education for her exceptional contributions and lasting impact on our school. Thank you, Georgie. [applause] You want to come up here? [laughter] Thank you. Thank you. And now I'd like to call up Dr. Robin Perez for some additional recognitions. >> Good evening, President Peterson, Vice President, Dr. Agular, the board, um, Superintendent Kim. It's a pleasure to be here tonight and I'm so honored to be before you um to present some
008incredible humans. One of the best parts of my job, student athletes. So, I'm here tonight to honor some of our student athletes. They embody heart, resilience, leadership, and the spirit of our school. their growth as students and as athletes remind us every day um what it means to be grounded in character to work hard to rise through challenge and for teamwork and purpose. Tonight I'm proud to introduce two programs and not only that have not only excelled through league competition but they've also advanced to CIF postseason playoffs. Um first our volleyball our varsity volleyball team is here. They're led by head coach Joel Baza. If you'll stand up. [applause] Cheyenne Cheyenne Ramirez, [applause] John Elas. [applause] So, in the short two years at the helm, this team has led our program to a remarkable growth.
009Um these these coach coaches have passion, vision, and steady guidance. They've transformed our program and it's been a proud and respected uh team of of incredible girls. They took the second place position in our league and they also qualified for CIF. Um just a huge testament to success of their hard work, the culture that this program has built. It's been a rewarding um experience and we look forward to the next season. So, just for a few words, I want to introduce two important leaders, our captains. I've got Jade Kamacho and Jaye Naha. If you want to come up. [applause] I'm going to ask that their teammates, their teammates come up and stand behind them as well. [applause] Hi, I'm Jade Kamacho, captain of the volleyball team. >> And I'm Jayen Aera. >> Um, we just
010want to say thank you to our coaching staff for their constant support and guidance and belief in us. Their dedication pushed us to rise to every challenge and not only grow as athletes, but as people. I'm extremely grateful for every girl on the team. Being a leader for this group really taught me about responsibility, communication, and what it means to lift each other up on and off the court. Leading this team was about creating trust, keeping each other strong, and building a true family with one another. >> We just want to thank everyone for the support, especially from Charter Oak. Everyone showed up for us at our games. >> Thank you. [applause] >> [snorts] >> Good to see you. [laughter] Let's get back. Just a little bit. [laughter] All right. [applause] All right. Next, I
011would like to recognize our football team, the undefeated Sierra League champions. Uh, these remarkable young men. and they've really exemplified commitment, dedication, and heart throughout their season. Um, their efforts carried them all the way through to CIF quarterfinals, and we could not be prouder of what they have accomplished. Um, we also want to honor not only the outstanding athletes, but their coaches, um, some of which who are here tonight. Our athletic director, Dom, Dominic Ferrar, and our head coach. Um he's not here with us tonight because he's actually with a Sierra League meeting planning for the future, but we want to give him a heartfelt shout out along with the coaches that are here. Um this coaching team that has consistently showed up for our boys, they have not only helped them grow athletically, but
012they have raised them to be young men of integrity. And again, we couldn't be prouder. Um it's my privilege I'm going to introduce three of our student athletes who are present tonight. Um, they're the best of who we are in every way. So, please welcome Corin Barry, Diego Flores, and JD Sanchez.

So, um, just thank you guys again. [applause] >> [clears throat] [laughter] [cough] >> Back it up. [laughter] actually photo. [laughter] >> [laughter] >> Thank you. >> [clears throat] >> All right, that'll take us to our student representative report. Heather. >> All right. Good evening. Um, I'll begin with the Willow report. Willow has been buzzing with excitement this fall as we focus on our schoolwide goal of increasing parent engagement. Families have had many opportunities to connect with the school community and be a part of the fun. They kicked off things with the popsicles and principal followed by back to school night and PTA's
014family craft night and the bubble run. As the weeks continued, families have joined us for Wildcat um Wildcat of the Month assemblies, coffee with the principal trunk or treat and the annual costume parade and our Veterans Day assembly. Each event has been a chance for parents to visit campus, engage with teachers, and celebrate the achievement of our students. We are thrilled by the turnout and enthusiasm from our families, and these events have strengthened the connection between home and school. With so much more momentum, we look forward to more opportunities to build parents into the heart of Willow and continue building a strong connected school community with the fifth fourth and fifth grade rotations. Um the fifth graders and the fourth graders teaching team has implemented an engaging daily rotation model for this year where each
015teacher focuses on a specific area, writing, reading and lit literature and reading informational text and social studies. This approach allows students to receive targeted instruction in each subject while benefiting from the expertise of each teacher. To support the system, students use color-coded binders to stay organized as they move between rotations. The structure has encouraged students to take ownership of their learning. And we've already seen growth in their maturity, responsibility, and organization. By rotating the through focused instruction, students are not only building a strong academic skill, but also developing habit that support long-term success. The collaboration among teachers and the international intentional structure of the rotations create a learning environmental environment that is both challenging and supportive helping students reach their full potential. All right. And now for the high school report. Um all of our
016sports have finished their seasons except water polo who is currently playing through state. Uh girls varsity tennis. Our senior captain Joanna Vong placed second in prelims and moved on to CIF. volleyball made it to their first round of CIF and fought hard shining on the court. As I said earlier, boys water polo has been named the D4 league champions and they played their championship game at the Mount Sack pool and won during overtime. This was a huge accomplishment for the Charter Oak aquatics department and they have additionally won their first round of state and currently played their second round tonight. Football has been announced the 2025 Sierra League Champions where they made it to the second round of CIF last Friday where all their hard work both an effort both on and off the field
017was shown. Last week the Charter Oak theater department closed their performance of Holiday Inn, where they had six shows over the course of two weeks. Their set included beautiful handbuilt pieces and so much hard work from everyone backstage and onstage. Costumes were also carefully designed to coordinate with specific holidays and once more being designed by the talented students in the department. Our homecoming dance on November 8th ended with a great night where many students enjoyed the dance at the beach. There was a high engagement of students from all over the school that were able to go on a ferris wheel, swing, and a ferry. Many were also entertained with the food served such as cotton candy and s'mores. October on our campus ended with a bang as students were engaged with a back to school
018spirit week or sorry back-to-back spirit weeks and campus lit up with a Halloween costume contest where the winner won an iPad and a decorated campus. College application deadlines are approaching for seniors and our college and career center uh leader, Miss Vasquez, is continuously working hard to partner with colleges and help support students and their application processes. Counselors have also been circling 11th and 12th grade classrooms with presentations about college and career planning. Our second M2 grading period ended and students are now working hard to end their semester with on a successful um half. And behalf of all the Charter Oak students, we would like to thank the entire counseling staff for always working to support and further students education. Thank you. >> Thank you, Heather. >> That'll take us to superintendent report. Dr. Kim, >>
019thank you, Mr. Peterson. Good evening, board. It is great seeing you guys. Uh happy early Thanksgiving. Uh it is that season that we're entering and uh Thanksgiving for me uh just reminds me of just all the gratitude I have. Gratitude for the work that's happening here, the good work that's happening. Gratitude to our board for your governance and leadership. Uh gratitude to my team, our team, our executive cabinet team, our cabinet team, all of our principles, all of our leaders. Uh so grateful for all the teachers in our classrooms that are just really doing incredible work and making sure our kids are learning at high levels. all of our classified staff, whether in classrooms or in offices, whether servicing uh students or servicing uh our schools. Uh they're just doing incredible work and tremendous gratitude
020that we have in this in this season. And I think it reminds us of the theme that we started with at the beginning of the year that this is home and we're grateful for the home that we have. We belong here. Uh we're welcome here and every single one of us is needed here. And so, uh really appreciate that effort. Um last week I was invited by um to this education roundt uh from Senator Perez and Assembly Member Fong uh our important state legislators that represent uh various education committees in the state and they wanted our insight uh in K12 as well as higher ed about what are the needs that they're seeing uh and the challenges better yet across our region and first first off I highlighted the incredible work that's happening in our
021region particularly here in Charter Oak Unified School District talked about uh really the bright spot that we are here in our school district and in this Kavina area. Uh and I did share very frankly that in our day and age, school districts are really being asked to do uh more with less. And we talked about and shared uh some of my colleagues with them that we've experienced lately expiration of one-time funds. We're experiencing declining enrollments. We're experiencing increasing costs to support our students with special needs. Uh and we're concerned about the state's fiscal outlook and it's impacting all districts including ours, right? And we're doing the good work of developing and becoming fiscally stable and working alongside our educational partners and our leaders in doing so. And so all that being said, they were super
022receptive. they understood and I think we did a good job of just making sure that um we presented and raised our voice about advocating for ongoing support and needs to uh assist all of our efforts here in Charter Unified and and for a greater sense uh all K12 school districts in California. Uh lastly, I just want to congratulate obviously our sports teams. Um Heather, I know she presented on this, but our uh word is our water polo team did win today and I believe they will be competing at the state final, state championship round this Saturday back at Mount Sack. So we'll have and share with you guys what those times are. Uh I'd be remiss if I didn't share how proud I am of all of our visual and performing arts teams. Our visual
023arts or performing arts uh band, they've been competing at high levels. I know they're competing this weekend for championship round. I know our choir has been taking the our kids through incredible experiences and holiday in was just incredible. So, a lot of great work that's happening both on the field, on the stage, in the classroom. A lot to be grateful for. With that, I turn it back over to you, Mr. Peterson. >> Thank you, sir. Do we have any public comments? >> Hi, everyone. My name is Christian Salamad. I'm here from the office of Congressman Gilsis Neros. Um, invited here by Trusty Flores. Thank you so much for um for that invitation and I'm just here to introduce our office as a resource and as your um Charter Oaks representative in the US House of
024Representatives. Um, you know, although Charter Oak is unincorporated, it might not have a council and a mayor. I think that really provides offices like ours an opportunity to push for more advocacy, more representation at every level of government. Um, I recently got to see the grand opening and ribbon cutting of the the the new family resource center at the Sunflower site. I thought that was incredible because it shows so much about what the district thinks of education and how holistic it is uh its view of education. And so, um, we would love to be a part of that. And, um, again, also as a district of choice, I just think Charter Oak is a great district, um, in our congressional district, and we would just love to, um, have a partnership with you all. And,
025um, and I just like to offer our office as a resource for that. So, thank you, and I look forward to seeing you all at upcoming meetings and, um, just out in the field. >> Thank you. >> Can we get you to fill out a uh, a card so we have your information? Thank you. Any further? >> No others. Okay. All right. That'll take us to item 12. Discussion on board policy revision first reading on uh board policy bylaw exhibit 9270 conflict of interest. Any comments on that? So just for clarity, we are updating our conflict of interest list to include new positions and and which uh levels of conflict that they will have to declare. >> That's correct. And it's required by the county board of supervisors. >> Okay, we'll go ahead and get
026that one. That'll take us to action item business item regarding resolution 192425. Dr. Kim, can you give us some background on that, please? >> Yeah, we're bringing forward to you this resolution uh in consideration for the board. Uh this is really exciting. Uh as you know, and we've been presenting to the board uh about roughly a year ago about the good work that's happening in partnership with the city of Cavina. Uh we received the grant about um roughly about a year ago in in helping lay the plans for our Royal Oak Middle School forestry and greening project. It's really bringing in nature, bringing in roughly up to 400 trees across the athletic fields uh and within the campus itself. Uh what this resolution is asking for is the authority for my office to be able
027to work in concert with the city of Cavina in pursuing additional grants so that we can now implement that project. not only the project in the forestry plan, but also our to our vision for um really upgrading and modernizing the athletic space for our students and a shared space for our city of Cavina and our community. And so this grant that we're pursuing, the measure A1, would um uh uh hopefully amount to upwards to $4 million to lay the groundwork of the plan and hopefully pursue the design phase and the implementation dollars for an athletic space. So looking forward to uh the board's response to this. Thank you. Can I go and get a motion? Pull that forward. >> I'll make a motion to approve the resolution. >> Can I get a second? >> I'll
028second. >> Okay. Any further discussion? I'm excited this is actually getting going a little faster than it was before. Um I know the the community is going to benefit from it. So I appreciate the effort you're putting into that. With that, I'll call for the vote. Miss Magguire. Yes. >> Mrs. Flores. >> Yes. >> Dr. Agular. >> Yes. >> And I'm also Yes. Motion passes. 40. >> Oh, Heather. >> Yes. [clears throat] Okay. And the student rep. So 40 with student rep and the affirm takes us to educational services. Item B1, K12 data sharing and services partnership agreement with the Foundation of California Community Colleges. Dr. Kim. >> All right. We're going to revisit this one. a really important and exciting opportunity. I'm going to have Dr. Mustafa share a little bit uh about this
029uh item as well as introduce her colleagues. >> Great. Thank you, Dr. Kim. As we recall last um session, california.edu uh really streamlines the process for um of planning for college and career success, ensuring really that every student in California has equitable uh access to post-secary opportunities. So to go a little bit deeper and to answer some of the questions from last meeting, I'm going to call up Dr. Ivan Iro as well as Eric Martinez to kind of um answer some of the questions that were brought forth from last session. >> Good evening, Board President Peterson and members of the board. I'm going to give a quick overview and I'm going to hand it over to Eric and then we'll open up for questions. Uh but this data sharing agreement with the California colleges guidance
030initiative or CCGI will allow for the creation of Charter Oak Unified School District's college and career plan planning p platform on California colleges.edu. CCGI was selected by the state to manage the California colleges.edu based on the passage of Senate Bill 153. The Senate bill also added language to the California Education Code 6900F3 requiring that all LEAs or school districts that enroll 9 through12 students enter into a data sharing agreement with CCGI by January 2026 as a first step towards implementation of the new California colleges.edu. Through the platform, students in grades 6 through 12 will be able to utilize this tool to track their academic progress, explore career paths, and launch their college applications for the community college system, the California State University system, and the UC systems. Taking it one step further, Senate Bill 640
031was signed by the governor and takes in effect January 1st, 2026. This bill creates a streamlined implementation of the California State University direct admission program with full statewide participation beginning uh for the 2027 applicants. So um recently uh we have met been in contact with Dr. Gromo, assistant vice chancellor from the office of um for the office for the CSU system. And she did verify that beginning January 1st, we will no longer have to districts don't need to go intoou that automatically once we get this platform up and running, our students will have access to the C CSU direct access um program. And a little a quick overview of that program. What would happen is that um because all of the students grades and courses that they take that are A throughG eligible are in
032the system in the platform um the schools have access to that and can automatically give them you know yeah give them um you know um whatchamacallit I'm sorry [laughter] direct admissions I apologize uh into the into their schools before the students even decide do I want to apply there so it gives them more opportunity to say, "Wow, these schools all want me, so let me decide which ones I want to apply to." So, that's one benefit that all of our students will have. Um, I'm going to go ahead and um send it over to Eric here to talk about the data privacy piece and then we'll open it up to any further questions you may have. >> Uh, good evening, President Peterson and trustees of the board. So, we've grown rather accustomed to vetting uh
033these type of sharing agreements and these privacy agreements. We we break it down into five key focus areas that I'll go through with you. But I it goes without saying that this agreement here that applies to this initiative does meet all the standards and requirements that we like to see present and that we prefer to adhere to. So there's there's no uh issues uh present in this agreement. Uh but the five areas of focus um ownership and purpose of data which Dr. already spoke to uh how the data is shared where it is shared where it's not shared. uh privacy and security of the data, data encryption and data retention. And just generally and briefly as it applies to this agreement, the LEA, which is us, will retain ownership of all student data and educational
034records for forward with um we know the purpose, but when it comes specifically to how it's shared and where it's shared, it gets shared with the foundation directly and no other third parties. It can't be used for advertising purposes, can't be sold. They are the custodian of the data that we share, but we are the owner. Without express written consent outside of the agreement, nothing of that data gets shared in any other express purpose, right? So, we know exactly where it's going. Uh, regarding the privacy and security, uh, there's three federal and state privacy acts that we like to see present. uh family educational rights and privacy uh act or furpa uh children's online protection uh privacy act which is known as copa and the student online personal information protection act or soa right abbreviated
035we like those um those generally cover all personal identifying information the copa goes a little bit deeper for children under the age of 13 but what they do is they scrub the data if it's ever going to be aggregated outside of the student's use, it gets removed. All that personal identifying information gets removed. No names, no phone numbers, no addresses, nothing along those lines. So the data is basically adhering to everything that we like to see present. We use that oursel within our own system here. As far as encryption of the data, wherever it's sitting stored on their servers and wherever it's transmitted, there's encryption on both ends. Um, which is very very important. And then this was probably the the biggest focus area, the retention of the data. At termination or expiration of this
036agreement, we have the right to ask the data to be purged in full. We simply write them a notice and they have 30 days to comply. We also have the ability to again in writing request a copy or a download of our information including the aggregated data so that we can you know pull it for ourselves, use it for information, research, analysis, whatever. But we again get to own that data and then they can purge it. Um so those five focus areas being covered in this agreement. We should feel pretty confident that we're standard. We're good to go with this agreement. So >> uh prior to any questions, can I get a motion to bring this forward? >> So moved. >> Second. >> I'll second. >> All right. Question. >> Yeah, I had a quick
037question. So on the topic of the data retention, you mentioned that the district is able to ask for the data to be purged. Is there any data that would automatically be purged at any period of time after being shared? >> It doesn't have a mechanism for automatically happening. We do have to submit in writing that we'd like to see that happen. >> Okay. >> Again, if the agreement gets renewed, then we continue to allow the agreement to exist. But either it gets terminated or upon expiration, it does require us to proactively say that we like that data purge. >> Okay. So then you're kind of just thinking a little bit logistically for a student that may be applying. This data is shared and provided. That way the uh universities or colleges would be able to
038determine a potential acceptance. Um and then let's say a student does apply and is accepted at a particular college or school and they attend uh that data does still exist shared within the foundation. >> Correct. And so the in the agreement it's written as such. If a student is utilizing the portal, their information and all those uh benefits, they have the right and ability to say, I'd like to retain that information for my use going forward beyond our uh express written um you know request to have the data purged, but they have to actually opt into that, >> right? >> Yeah. Do we also know does this foundation for California community colleges also play a role in sharing with um uh postbalorate work or graduate work? Does that >> I don't believe No, I don't
039believe so. Yeah, >> Heather has a question. >> No, Heather. >> Yes. Um would this be like in unison with the common application too as you guys stated it would be with the community colleges, UC's and Cal States? Would that go into the private schools on the common app too? >> That I I I I am not 100% certain how that will work right now. They've only started with the public institutions for this. Uh but I wouldn't be surprised if that's the direction they'll go. Um but I know these are the three that they're starting with for the system for roll out. >> I think this is a great opportunity as a senior. I think this is lovely to see for upcoming classes and I think we should definitely move forward with it. >> Eric,
040one quick question. You said that we can get data from them when we ask to for them to purge. Can we get it prior to that? >> We can get it yeartoear to >> Yeah. They let us request our data at any time. >> Okay. >> Yeah. >> All right. Any further questions? >> No, I just have a comment. I want to thank Mrs. Magcguire for flagging this and for her continued advocacy to bring resources and information to us. So, thank you. >> All right. With that, I will call for the vote. Dr. Agler. Yes, >> Mrs. Forest. >> Yes, >> Miss McGuire. >> Absolutely. Yes, >> Heather. >> Yes, for sure. >> And I'm also Yes. Motion passes 4 Z with student rep and affirmative.

Um, specifically, of course, football. Amazing work they did all season long. Um, not only developing as athletes, but developing as young men, as was alluded to earlier. Um, of course, the volleyball team, which we had the privilege of uh of honoring this evening. Uh, we mentioned tennis, water polo. Congratulations. Can't wait to go see them at Mount Sack on Saturday. Uh, and then again with the VAPA holiday was great. I hope you all got a chance to see
045it. It was very, very, very impressive. Maybe one of the best ones I've seen yet. I just feel like every performance gets better and better than the last. Um, the band will be at their Division 1A Southern California School Band and Orchestra Association Championships this Saturday at Dhy High School. If you want to go see what the world of high school marching band looks like, uh, go check it out. Uh, their performance will be at 7:56 p.m. So, yes, 7:56 56. Yeah, it will be right on time. [laughter] So, at 7:56 p.m. at DHY High School, that will be their performance. You can see some of their competitors prior to that. And there will be two more competitors right after them. And then there's an award ceremony and uh good luck to them. I hope
046or good skill I should say. Uh I hope they go out and do a wonderful job and uh perhaps bring home some hardware. That would be wonderful. Um, and then in this season of college applications, uh, just wanted to say I'm very happy to hear so many supports, uh, as were mentioned today that our our high school seniors are receiving in their application process. Uh, good luck to all of them. Um, I hope they all are are looking forward to achieving their dreams at, uh, whichever schools they choose to attend. Uh, and then lastly, uh, very thankful to be serving amongst all such great board members, uh, student board members and executive cabinet of the district. So, thank you for a wonderful time of this year, of this season, uh, and to the community as
047a whole. So, happy Thanksgiving everybody. >> Miss Flores, >> echoing everything Dr. Aguilar said, congrats to our fall sports. Uh, good luck water polo. Welcome, Dr. Perry. Look forward to getting to know you. Um, you're not from Walnut Valley, are you sure? [laughter] >> All right. Um, I have actually a really cool story and Sue Hook will know what I'm talking about. Um, I had the opportunity to meet a Charter Oak alum. She was actually a student at Royal Oak High School. So, um, I got to meet, uh, the mayor of Maretta. Her name is Cindy Warren, and she, um, was at Royal Oak Middle School, very successful Charter Oak alum. So, um, had the opportunity to meet her and we chatted about you. I know she's your cousin. So, that was just a really
048cool story. It's always great to meet a Charter Oak alum. So, um that was that was really cool and uh thankful for all of you. Thank you to our our teachers, our directors, our staff behind the scenes, um our principles, and to our amazing superintendent and to Miss Lori Maxel who keeps it all together. She really is we work for her. So, um thank you all to our amazing uh assistant soups and to our great student um student representative. Hopefully, you've completed your college apps and all right, thank you all very much. Um, and happy Thanksgiving everyone. >> Miss Magcguire. >> First, um, hello all. Um, I want to say thank you for passing that data sharing agreement because I grew two new gray hairs, uh, since we tabled it last time. It was stressing
049me out. Um, so I'm so happy uh because it's going to be a great incentive for our students to be able to see uh, which colleges they are uh, most likely to get accepted to. Also, we have our own board member here who was talking about how tedious it is to have to match her own classes up. Um, and we've heard several seniors talk about having to match uh how our courses are named and numbered versus uh how the CSU system accepts them and then finds the grades. So, this is going to be a great uh uh advancement for the students in our district. Um, we have, of course, Turkey Day coming up. And so I wanted to share uh that Operation Gobble uh by Assembly Member Blanca Rubio is this Sunday, 9:00 a.m. to
05012:00 p.m. Uh, if you or someone you know needs help uh with a uh either a turkey or a gift card at the cost of a turkey and all the fixings for Thanksgiving dinner, it's drive-thru. It's right at our high school. Um, and if you miss it because you were busy, you can then go to the YW.CA DCA on Monday where they're having operation gobble gobble not to be confused with operation gobble uh and there you can receive a turkey uh until they run out on Monday morning. Um and it's the San Gabriel Valley YWCA uh on Baranka. Um and then lastly, I have a request for either Pharaoh or you. I'm not sure. Uh before our next board meeting, can we have an update on the local impact of the federal shifts in the
051Department of Education? Um so that we can figure out what's going on here locally. Um oh yes, and welcome Dr. Perry. Uh thank you for joining us over here in Charter Oak. We're really happy to have you. Uh and I think that's it for me. Uh happy Thanksgiving everyone and I hope you all who get extended vacation time off uh enjoy your week. I'll be at work still, but I'll be thinking of you all. Thank you. >> Thank you, ma'am. All right, Dr. Perry, welcome, sir. Looking forward to it. Got a lot of work ahead of you. We're looking forward to everything you're going to be doing for us. Uh, I really like the fact that we're recognizing our student athletes, uh, because they are they represent our our our school, our district throughout the
052southern region and they're doing a fantastic job, but also the coaches, uh, they they are here constantly. Uh, I didn't really understand how much time they put into it till my own daughter started playing volleyball here at this school. And, uh, you know, Joel, John, and Cheyenne is just incredible the amount of time that they put in with these kids. But I think they've done a great job in in building the culture, the traditions, and and instilling the pride in in Chartro to these young ladies, and they're making them uh, prepared for life after high school. So, I'd like to thank them. They're gone, but I'll tell them later. Um, the VAPA program once again, I mean, this district has so much to offer from student athletes to the the the various things. We just
053have so much here that we can celebrate so many of our students. So, it's really good. I had an opportunity to go to the homecoming. Well, I drove to the homecoming. Actually, I drove, dropped off, drove back, and then picked up again. Uh, I hope the kids had a fun time because I didn't, [laughter] but my daughter enjoyed it, and she said it smelled a little bit out there near the ocean, but but uh the boat ride, ferris wheel, they had a good time out there. Uh, what else? Congratulations to our water polo. It's our first water polo CF championship. And our one game away from winning state and is just uh phenomenal. And I also want to give a shout out to Dr. Perez who's entered everything. And even in the rain today, I
054stopped by the water polo game. Hope was out there and Chrisu has done a fantastic job with everything that's going on, organizing everything, making sure the kids have everything they need. So, we're very fortunate that our administrators are in place taking care of our kids and and they have just as much pride in what's going on as we do. So, with that being said, happy Thanksgiving to everybody. Hopefully, you'll have a restful week off for you teachers and kids. I am I know that was a little dig. I was just giving you a little dig. Did you get it? Okay. All right. All right. >> Did you sense it? You didn't. So, it's just me. >> Yeah. >> Okay. All right. I don't feel bad. >> All right. Uh, and good we got finals coming
055up, too, right? >> Yes. In about three weeks. >> In about three weeks. Good luck with that. >> Thank you. >> All right. And with that, I am done. And our future meeting is December 18th. And we'll go ahead and No, no need for close session. And we'll adjourn at
