Today's calendar contains actions which are programs that they are going to eliminate some things when There are obligations that are for the students and the integrity of our program. as the new president of the classified union. I don't They reported, but I wasn't included in it. discussions regarding this, a This visual education staff for those who are visually impaired and for mobility. These conversations have taken place at high levels and behind closed doors when decisions about personnel The classifieds are done without a union in the table, it's not just a lack of responsiveness. Is a violation of the collaborative process collaborative that the district says that he values it. We have seen the students
009volunteers. We have seen how it has changed to classified person. We have seen education assistants especially so that they can go and support. instructional assistants so that can cover educational underpants general so that the teacher can leave to the Ip boards. They have also interpreted in the conferences without have the option to plan the lessons or also organizing the team of physical education or teaching classes physical education. They are taking these employees out of work who are hired and are expected to do other things. These staff members are sent anywhere. necessary, not anything exclusively for the students. Classified personnel It's not staff who are filling the vacancies for that day. Students deserve staff classified, not who is there available that day. Every employee deserves respect for their profession and each The student deserves the support
010of the staff classified and trained. We expect structure and support for the students and to help the professionals. Others who support the classroom substitutes and employee safety is very important when the substitutes don't They accept the job because the pay is very good. low. The classrooms They are short-staffed and this creates a domino effect because the student behaviors increase, security is lacking, the learning Oh, well, it's not constant, there are no routines. established and also Well, the wounds are increasing. The movement affects not just one several classes. The cycle is not efficient, but not safe. The payment inadequate is directly responsible for these absences. When the halls classes operate without the staff that they must have, students lose the structure constant need. The pay for substitutes needs to be increased. It's a security measure in
011our retention strategy. Thank you for your time. Chula Vista educators, Rosy Martinez. President Ugarte, please, I need to have 45 more seconds tonight. I ask any staff member of CBEs that are raised. Good night. Me I directed you during you are going to be listening to presentations from him California board. Teachers create this data. It is a great opportunity to highlight the work that teachers create in the classroom every day. Please reflect that This only reflects a small part about what happens in our schools. The challenges are enormous, and we ask them that they do more each day. Now with the eh budget They have to learn more things and besides Grades don't matter either The challenges, educators arrive because of the commitment and love they have for the students. Like all students, each of
012our educators are important, as well as children and many The effort of educators is put to work and that's what it should be gold medal winner, but Sadly, we are having the bronze medal through the talks. We have not been able to have We have not been able to reach an end. This is a very important point because from In January, 40% of our members had a salary reduction. In comparison with the surrounding districts, our salary turns 22 in the county. I shared some of the data with You today, but now I want to read with you to a few direct appointments from our members of how it impacts them as individuals. A teacher said, "Every month The cost of healthcare takes money from us and then it leaves us with less money for food,
013transport and the house." And then many times We have to remember the things that need. Over time, And the costs make life more complicated. more difficult and adds stress to our situation. Another teacher shared, as a father of two children and a salary, I I cover all medical expenses of the family, including the costs of orthodontics, rent payments, the utilities and the cost of daily living. It means that I spend everything that I win without any time to be able to save. It's costing us a lot stress. I want to see what else I can cut. to avoid falling into debt, to pay the health insurance. It has been very difficult to be able to to keep my daughter in college because that money is no longer in my possession monthly account. And another thing,
014the costs health and recipes. And be careful, She can't manage after working for the district for over 20 years. I have to cut back in other areas. things to keep for myself, ah health care. Everything has gone up in price. Uh, the amount it has gone up is extraordinary and unsustainable. Our teachers and our families ah They deserve to be healthy. A service for lifelong service to service and the community deserve that I can cover these expenses. Our The district was a leader in benefits. And now we're one of the worst. Other, I had to take my son away and that would apply to request medical assistance. Another said, "Living day by day and now this It will be an additional cost because there will have to be cuts, activities that are foundations for to
015be able to bring families together. And finally in the districts they have found ways to support. Others offer other things that can make it less pressure on staff. The district must do the same. Prioritizing employees is not the answer. It's the right thing to do To do, is the essential thing so that the staff can focus on educating students. I I ask CBSD to take action to address these costs and ensure that employees and their families are supported. CBSD believes that educators The people of Chulavista deserve this. The district You must respond with action. We're not going to accept the negotiation in bronze. We ask that you prove that we are a priority by accepting our proposal and that they can to help us and to be able to help the members and our families
016and for that our gold medal teachers can help the students. Thank you. Association of Administrators of Chulavista, Teresa Corona. Hello good nights, President Ugarte. Dr. Reyes, a member of AACB, I I want to say that our association has worked through with the leaders from the district because we are already planning for the 2627 school year. ACB appreciates the opportunity to dialogue and we are committed to working collaboratively to strengthen our schools and also our district. Uh, our legal team wants to make sure in which rigorous learning is and most importantly, that it be realistic. Our leaders are committed to the improvement. However, progress substantial You have to have goals that are truly important. measurable and real in the facilities and in the work we do. Ambitious goals are very important, but they also have to
017be achievable in order to maintain morale, the capacity and also the results that last for the students. Also I want to emphasize that the number one goal for our district community It always has to be our children. Every plan, every initiative, and every The metric has to be ah with a ask. How does this help the students? Our district is facing a variety of challenges. Finally, I want mention that the data for our schools can be found in the plans for student achievement or SEPSA and They are on the California board that gives transparent information about each school in our district and in the state. And I want to say, however, that while the academic indicators, including tests are important, represent only a measure of impact of a school. growth, stake, attendance, support for multilingual
018students and other populations, uh, sorry, of students that need to be focused on. Avev continue to be ready to continue working with collaboration with the district so that it focus on students and on success of them. Thank you.

They have been with our students, they have
020communicated clearly with us and We have always been invited to be volunteers. Not one for my husband and me sometimes we have felt outside of the educational path of our children. This is also a respect that he has healthy boundaries through the years. the master of the children have shown interest in They have attended games and during one of the most personal times for the family, when we donated a lung, the staff approached us, a kidney, sorry. AND When I think that it does a strong community, our teachers, our staff, our schools and the families we share, the Alenora school further educated our children.

For over 20 years this group has gathered, has met in the district
024helping with respect and kindness. Last year 76,000 Children in California participated in our program. The parents said how this program has been good for the students. Previously, a request was made to use the rooms at Wolf. Canyon and Veterans and they wouldn't let us use the classrooms because Ah, I was going to use them, Leid, and although they We were told the classrooms weren't going to be used. that we would return to submit the application and we returned to the request and we were also asked again deny at that time. We have letters from the parents and we have also sent letters to superintendent so that they please reconsider the refusal to use that classroom. Last year They said that when a district speaks, their facilities for programs from outside the Schools have to give
025him access balanced. Equal access for all. First of all, deny the club It takes away from us students participate in this values-based program And it's not right to deny access to everyone.

There are 76,000 students throughout Southern California who participate in the Good News club. he last year It was supported by 22,600 volunteers. For years this club has operated in conjunction with the districts and for the last two semesters we has denied to have this club because it interferes with lead programs. Have teachers with empty rooms that we know because I'm sure they'll let us use it the halls. Our presence It has not had any security problems and they deny us to this club. that enriches the lives of students and puts the district in at risk of having legal battles. You may be aware that in August 15, 20, 2025 a court There was a court and it allowed CEF equitable access
027during the program ELOP. We are respectfully addressing you. asking the board to reconsider and allow the Good News Club program returns to to meet in the rooms it used to have in after-programs school.

This doesn't fall primarily on the doctor, Regarding Superintendent Reyes, also The members are responsible. So, members of the board, It is their job to question the points from the agenda, because Mrs. Dominguez always asks for clarification and asks them to clarify how they allow it.

Why do they say they put the doctor in charge? Are the Reyes strategically located there? Teachers, do you agree? with this leadership? with what they have done to her once respected district. What we have here It's something that's being handled by power, those salaries of high in leadership. Think about this. Our teachers They have a union. When the teachers' union is running, he's driving the decisions. What's happening with our representation rights independent? What about our rights? My name. Examples of angels who were with We, who are heroes, were Miss Crosby, Miss Burger, Mr. Mark. I've been on these boards for almost 20 years. uh 20 years. My name

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to talk. My name is Valery Sfford and in In September I worked for the district from Chula Vista for 30 years as a teacher. I am certified. I have a credential from Big Light and a master's degree in education. I had the privilege of working with many families in our district. Unfortunately I have seen the cost of the last few years The ones from health insurance have been very expensive. has increased, for example, expenditure of 3330 by a dependent to ensure that a family with plans Kaiser HMO costs teachers approximately $330 per month, $300, sorry.
030For example, South Bay Unified Desrike pays $58 by the same plan by which I am speaking on behalf of a shop assistant. I compare my salary and I admit that I am the furthest. If I have 60 units, I have 32 years of experience. He National district pays $99 because of the plan that he said and does much larger salary than CBSD for $6,000 a year. A teacher at San Diego UniFi wants chair. Earn more and pay 0 to insure his family, not just a dependent, but a whole family. We are dedicated to public services who do not receive bonuses or other compensations, we need to recharge our prizes of health and we are in one of the most expensive cities in the county. When I was a single mother, I had to take a
031second job to pay for my children. Remove 1300 per month to have a family in a Kaiser Him cannot be sustained.

032Brewer. I have two children who attend Allen Elementary and it was a big reason why which one we chose for our house. And it has been an influence on our life. My children have taken a lot steps every year and it is because of the work that What did the teachers do? They Some have exceeded some of my expectations, what my children have learned and have developed. I feel safe in families who want to go to Alan, that also assures me of the good work they do at Alan. I think so, you. You will find teachers and staff leaving for other schools. Thank you. Robin Alcoba and Berta López, I ask you for one sorry. Good evening, members of the panel directive. I speak today as a father, taxpayer and members of the community. On
033January 26th I read I requested records after the resignation of a administrator. I understand that the extensions are may allow, But families are told no Valleindo can be kept together with Valleindo while the renovation is being done and at the same time the board approved some money for the person who resigned, who has six zeros. Because someone is going to try this to someone who resigned, This amount of money for someone who resigned And that's despite the fact that the district is in crisis. budget Because someone would approve of this, But since these things have been done, I I feel that my family and the community ah He deserves access to all these records. And since this has already been approved, it should be here to say how and why it was approved, what has
034remained in the dark and because someone is resigning and They are paying. So, members of the Board of directors, understand. This is from not transparency. It is a priority to the students and the community that You were all chosen to serve. Now families are watching them nearby and we want to see where Our children suffer because of those decisions. that are taken. Thank you, Berta López and then Vanessa St. John. My name is Berta López and I am a community activist and someone who pays taxes in CBSD. I care deeply about CBSD, the children, the staff, the lounge classes and here they have been made Everything has fallen apart thanks to the newspaper La Voice of San Diego. California law states uh clear expectations. and prohibits public officials from to participate in decisions. Government Code
0351090 prohibits public officials that are involved in contracts, including job. These laws exist to to protect the public and to ensure that the decisions are made without that divided loyalties. I'm here because the Mrs. Ugarte is also the union president in Sweetwater. The same districts work under the same unit and also coordinate the negotiations in many districts in South Bay. This has concerns about the decisions. As a member of the community, I of You see, I lean on this table to protect education funds. There is no transparency here. I am truly asking for this board of directors to the superintendent so that they have it written down guidelines and also independence with respect to the legal code 800 and 1080 Because this is for children and not for personal agendas. Let me remind you that
036People's trust is based on other things, No? Not just in the good times Nothing more is built in the good times. intentions lie at the ethical limits. Our children deserve leadership that doesn't It is dedicated solely to the transparency, but let it be transparency. I would like that too. to say that Mrs. Delia Domínguez, you And nothing more than Mrs. Olsen agrees each motion. I really tell you Thanks to the voice of San Diego for to write all these articles and for make all these articles public so that we know what is happening. Thank you. Good evening, my name is Vanessa St. Jones. I have been a teacher for 15 years, Well, for 25 years, 15 here in Chulavista. I have attended all the board meetings, but I know that at the meeting in January
037it was different. The lady Cervantes spoke in public And then I went to another meeting and some My colleagues were concerned about what It was communicated that day and they told us that we saw the information and we we would ensure that it was valid. And from You see, I looked for the minutes of December From 2022 to December 2025. I have them all I looked through those agendas. And Mrs. Urgarte, you requested that the minutes were limited saying that from now on the minutes They were going to follow Robert's order that be much more minimums. I'm out of my mind. Why is that? Because Mrs. Urgarte as president who represents other teachers would like limit the information that is given to us Here to the families of Chula Vista. I I don't know why
038you wanted to do that, but as you promote your district school. Yes, I also found some facts that Mrs. Dominguez Cervantes of the statements made by Mrs. Cervantes. In this case, they too social media posts are real. The board could have done it same without taking the increase step of increase, but you did They decided not to do it. a year in advance. So, Ugarte, Tolstan and Tamayo quickly They asked for it to be approved while the Two Dominguezes said no. Please, if anyone wants this information, I have ah I have the dates, I have title one, Fake, please let me know And I'm going to have a vacation and I'm going to have More information and more information deep.

041There are many opportunities to volunteer in Allen, because we are a very close-knit community. active. Perhaps it's not the one the parents They want to, but seeing that there isn't, unless the goal is I monitor the teachers. I've volunteered in the classroom five times. Two of the times were in the classroom. I have always been welcome, and others volunteers too and I have always Dear director and staff.

044put a face to what which is what is happening when You are raising the cost of the benefits. I have been teaching for 25 years and this year and the cost continues to rise every year until finally this year I no longer I could pay it, but I couldn't anymore. the total cost for the dentist/optometrist It was $1,500 a month. So, I couldn't anymore. I had to choose Kaiser. Simsa, which is free and is in Tijuana. I don't know how I'm going to get my children to there or to me.

There was Article 4H in the closed session 4H, conference with legal advisor and during the closed session The agenda item was removed. We don't take votes without explanation, and we don't... reported to the public. So, we need to correct the action on that. If it's been removed, there's nothing that can be done. We can remove things up to the moment. And when we remove it, we don't We voted. No, we didn't vote to remove it. because the agenda was approved. When We open the session, we include him. It

I wasn't here, But even though it was an article and not reported nothing, so I don't know how it works. That's why I'm here asking what the correct action is. Mrs. Ugarte opened the session and We approve. All we have to do is correct that we removed it. Okay. On page 75, Article 10F. There was a point of action that came from this discussion And I know we're not I schedule, But uh, that was the conversation It was one of the autonomous schools and it was a conversation extensive on schools self-employed, dependent and independent. It was requested for this meeting and the board did not approve it. After 10:30 We'll have it in March. I just
049want a better understanding of independent and dependent. He will report in March. Yes, I'm already with Melb, I'm done with B. Oh, sorry. Mr. Tamayo requested the motion.

You, promotions, the second employee It is retroactive to 2026, to 2025. If this individual was already working the position, then he There were movements within our department and he's working in that It's been done, but it will be retroactive to 2025. Sorry, that's a spelling mistake. a typing error. a related issue. So, Everyone got a raise, Some 4%, others 2%. and the student assistants don't They gave this increase. I want to know how This works. on page 5 of s
050with the exception of the student assistant and It's no responding AND 10 is an action point. Hey, Dominguez, Secretary, please call the votes. Domínguez Cervantes, Tolsten, Yo, Tamayo Ugarte. The motion passes Domínguez Cervantes and Ramírez Dominguez too. 10e 10e.E. Can I get more information from Regarding this memorandum of understanding? Yeah, Mr. Warte, may I include my questions? They want to explain it, and we'll see if... He answers it. This is a game of Understanding is an agreement between the district and CDE. This addresses the component A of the process. This is for It is a memorandum of understanding for those who have a status temporary of more than 2 years or so. Okay, can emphasize the last question is the last part. So, If you were here temporarily, then they gave that credit as a
051point, as an example. And I was a teacher for 2 years as a temporary worker and then Ah, I went to stock up for the third year, So I had to go through the process and Then they're going to assign me a point. We know how many certified staff were affected by this. There were a number of individuals who were hired, by For example, July 2023 and this process we helped determine the range. Subsequent question. I was asking how much of how much We're talking about personal matters. social workers and counselors. It doesn't matter where they went services or your work. If they are receiving points for certificates you have, if they They worked for CBSD. And if they had uh uh temporary status and who also have licenses listed in the memorandum of understanding,
052then it would be like that. They are eligible for points. Okay. We know how many people are affected. I can give you one update. Yes, please, just to get an idea. Mrs. Ramirez Dominguez has already done everything your questions. This also helps if for any reason The reason they were given the suspension was They can be rehired. OK thanks. This is an action point. I make the move, I request approval, a motion. And this one is for the students who They have a PGI and had to go to a general education class by an ah a certain time. So, for teachers who are already 31 students and and the minutes that students had of general education teachers who They had education students special and that they had more than 31 students. So, it takes more
053time. That's why this agreement was made. I want express this to other teachers who have expressed these problems. I think that that if his contract was not respected, I would like to support this, but for me, uh From now on I want to assure and I wish this wouldn't happen again time and I know you have a agreement with B canyon, but to ensure that this does not happen in Camarena and that it doesn't happen in another one our schools. But we are ensuring it better than pruning, the best that can be done with more than 31 students. So, I want to assure you that this does not happen. again and why it wasn't resolved before. Mrs. Cassy, We've been working on this for time. Uh, for example, we have a student with an IEP
054and the IEP says it has to go to a general education classroom. We have an obligation to do it. We are working very closely to ensure that 31 is the maximum. So we have many highly structured guidelines and we are sending adults to support those students who are already 31 Hey, to those rooms that already have 31 students, sorry. It has been a process over the last 2 years And it seems he's been very collaborative with this. We might have to open more classes there. Another question, Um, can I know the quantity of the money that they are being paid? We'll have that in an update of the board of directors, please. Let me double-check. Can you tell me where? In the last page. Mr. Pong. If I look at the exhibit on the last
055page. It is a total of 134,000. We want to make fiscal decisions appropriate And this has already happened and it needs to be paid for. But it's money we don't have. Thank you for working, Mrs. Casey, but Let's make sure this doesn't happen again. happen. We have other schools where they are located. So, I don't remember. We have some, but not as impacted. Wolf Canyon is the school that is shocked and there is no more space. But we are trying to maintain these classes strategically to a number limit. that we opened Jafajari Soto Mayor, but yes I know we still believe, that we still growing, sorry. And I know we're planning another school, but Wolf Cany is a school that is the one that is being impacted at every level. Thank you. I want a
056description of the program. pilot. What are they going to do? I think it's intended to see how not to fall into this program, in this problem. Yes, some of the limits that it We have it in Wolf Canyon. Um, we want to make sure we don't fall into this. and especially if this memorandum of understanding anticipates that sixth-grade classes will be impacted too because the fifth-grade classes are already in and we know that our fourth-classrooms They're going to grow too, and we're going to have space there. We need to be collaborative with the teachers, who have to be collaboration with the teachers of general education, special education and the administrators. So that there is time for collaboration in Pope and speech and language, too We need to ensure that compliance is achieved. with students who
057have an IP. So it's a collaborative effort with the team for this to work. It has to be a very coordinated And yes, it's going to be hard work, but we're going to make the effort. And you're going to give us updates periodically. Perhaps you have an application for changes periodically. This is an action point. I ask for one motion. Mrs. Ramirez Dominguez he asked. Secondly, Mr. Tamayo. By Please, secretary, call the ballot. Ramírez Domínguez Cervantes, Tolstamayo, Ugarte, me. The motion passes I asked for the G. I also asked for the G, but it's fine. Do they want to go back to G? I heard you say, "They gave me my answer." That was for the again. Already, already. Well, if nobody eats it. Yeah. How does this work? And how do we ensure This
058is the best one, the best price for services and essentially This was the lowest. Of all the options, the lowest rent. AND I understand the logic, but I don't want to. that we are doing it robotically that was done historically. We need to be more careful about what we choose. Perhaps listen to others local offers. Mr. Superintendent, one of the things What did we talk about when I reviewed this with you one by one, initially The district's job was to buy For Baelindo, right? this, but for We found that renting was the way to save money. better. Yes, we saw that it was better to rent this. than to buy it. This is a PQ action point. I have a motion to try PQ. The motion passes. Me second. Mrs. Dominguez Cervantes asked for it.
059Mr. Tamayo He approved it, he seconded it. Votes Ramírez Domínguez Cervantes, to Tolsten, Tamayo, Ugarte. Article 10S. Romírez Domínguez. on trips.

They need to have this certification And it's two days. It has to be certified in order to be able to provide this training to our employees. Along the same lines, thank you for clarify. to go back a little further. A trainer of trainers. There's a lot of value in this, and the CP and the CPI training, but in the past and I don't remember if this is the plan,
060We have had trained staff in different schools. This is for our directors. a conference that Mr. Morales, this is a conference of My Morales, this is a conference of educational and educational education and one of the other teachers of Innovation is going to go and share this experience. This is our was going to share this experience. This is our teacher at the Energy Station. Uh, I ask, uh, I ask the Lord Tamayo, I support him in all of secondary school, please. Mr. Tamayo, I second that. Everyone in high school, please. Ramirez Domínguez Ramírez Domínguez and Domí Cervantes Mayarte the motion Sunday Cervantes May Hugarte the motion passes 50. Before going to the public hearings which may take a few minutes. Let's go take a 10-minute break and then we returned. Public hearings. This section offers
061the public the opportunity to address the board on the topics specific, specific topics and those who wish to approach the table They should give it to the secretary and they must limit their speeches to 3 minutes and in a professional manner with the consent of The Table directive may be increased or decrease the time allowed for with Public comments, depending on the number and duration of the forms. 11B. Ah, classified personnel. Services discontinued for the cycle School 2627. Doctor Rosendell. If this article addresses the need to eliminate 48.5 of the positions of classified personnel. Questions from the board or comments. I have a comment. Can you explain a little more? so that people can understand. There are several positions and while it's at 48.5 five full-time positions. We are watching from 16 to 1 affected
062people in low age. And what I mean is that, like We have the positions for assistance of behavior, We are seeing that we will be able to move most of those people. uh to other positions for professionals. So, that way we can just give of It drops from zero to five positions. So, when we have four point pun 4.3, How does that happen? How does it affect personal when it has 0.4, 4, That's part of a FT. Uh, so if we are seeing to those who supervise, We are seeing that what affects there can be two individuals, But we are anticipating an impact. from scratch because we are not anticipating to the positions and give them underneath, then nothing more We're reducing, so no would affect. Can you say if it's in the district or
063in the squads? This is in the schools. Before the winter holidays, in the council of the in the councils of the schools inspected the positions, budgets and they determined which positions They were going to be reduced for the school year. 2627. Here, as if for those who are blind, What does that mean? That we're not going to support students that they cannot see. Can you explain further? Ms. Key? If we are forced, we will be forced. We are obligated to provide that service, that's all we're going to do. to change the model of how we are going to provide. What will be the model through from Celpa, Will they provide on our behalf? Then we're not going to pay anymore money for these services. That's how it is. Can you elaborate a little more on
064how they're going to provide those services. Nothing more briefly, if Celpa will meet with our team to see the students in everything the district that has peace there and make sure those services ah enter the halls in all the schools. How can we keep track of that Celpa and the staff, that is, they are coming to The students? If there were a coordinator who is supervising that job. What happens to the children who are there? right now? they If you can give me that perspective. Those Services will continue this school year. starting the next school year. The services they are receiving from our staff this year They will be given by Celpa next year, it will be the same service. Then, the parents can rest easy. that services will continue, It's just going to be
065a different model. Thank you. Questions or comments. Yes, one more. when that position is already vacant, then that position is eliminated from the district's website and how it works. Then the stall closes and the description It is removed, then it remains just in case. We need it again. For example, if we close a position, We didn't remove the description, But for those particular positions there are just one individual, one position, and that the position will no longer exist. Yes, that's correct. I am now opening the hearing public. We have seven speakers. Car G Oh no, sorry, incorrect article. This It's 11C. I was right. Yes, I'm going to open the public hearing. There is no Speakers, I'm going to close it. And this It's an action article. Nobody wants to do it, but we have
066to. So I think it's going to be the same in this situation with both articles where someone has to do it and We are members of the board directive and we have to be responsible fiscally and as we all are facing uncertainty, reductions, it whatever you want, It's a very difficult situation, but yes ah, I will proceed to adopt 11 B. Second, seconded by Tamayo Ramírez Domínguez. I, Tomí, who is Cervantes, I would like to qualify, continue working just as aggressively that Mrs. Rosen so that it is affected minimally. May I motion passes adopt resolution about certain certain classified personnel and certificate. This article addresses the staff certificates are nine and they will be positions that will be deleted and we also have management positions. questions. Can you repeat the numbers? for to the training
067positions? There are nine of them. And how many people are being affected? We are seeing 56 individuals who are going to be affected. You can also share with the staff. At the moment have six, but we think the number will be be smaller, which is what we are monitoring right now, from May to June and that we are seeing that reduction number. If I want to start by saying, we We met with the teachers yesterday. The president is seen and it's a time very difficult and we understand and want provide the best transparency possible and I know many of us have been in situations of discharge previously and it is difficult. Then, we met with the teachers Yesterday and here on the list there are 43 positions And that represents 43 salon closures. And that's
068due to money from a single source. time. So, as we receive more registrations, how we receive more pensions and new job opportunities, we will be able to adjust and to those discharged. And why the 23? Why 43? Because I said that there are some who already know They're going to retire, then others who They resigned, So it's a continuous process and the numbers continue to be adjusted. Right now there are 43, so There are only 36. In fact. So, as we continue to receive information, such as registrations As they grow, we'll be able to open more halls. Right now we have teachers who are out. Ah, there are eight of them and they have until the 21st. March to notify the district that They will return to work for the cycle school 2627. And those
069are numbers that We are waiting to finalize. and people will have to extend his time outside the district. That would help us with the calculations of the discharged. I think it would be beneficial for me, For the public, continue updating ourselves to know How many people will be given one? letter that will be given below and to know in how many months, in May or in How many months will that take? I believe Those are all my questions. So, if I understand correctly, We are working in what for these numbers in the staff There are 36 certificates. So, the intention here is that Registrations are low, which then causes, obviously, the salons close and money from a single time. So, How many of these are related to one-time payments? P. Ah, that's more related to
070other positions as workers, workers social. Those are the funds used for the money all at once and there are 20 affected. The board members are also affected. There are 25 social workers, 10. His contract ends at the end of the year school and some are going to be hired by the individual templates. So it seems that for the moment the There will be 10 people affected. 10 are temporary, sorry. So, if there are going to be 10 people affected. So, there's a program of for funds. And with that money we'll continue to have to the advisors And so, oh, hopefully we can stop the letters of dice rolls and so working with schools And so the schools determine which ones They are the most valuable And if we do get that money in one go
071time, if we are going to provide the funds to the schools. During this time I have a great conflict every year. the value of a member that explains a vote, a valid explanation of a vote that It affects others. Many things can be true at the same time and nothing more because someone says Something doesn't mean it's true, and I I live for that every day. My actions each These days are for defending teachers, not There are no other teachers that I represent in my district, but also in CBSD. As a union leader, I experienced On March 13, 2020, more than 300 teachers who were affected by a former superintendent. He was almost here county and it closed us down. So, no Believe me, I don't take this personally and I have experience in this.
072Took a long time to recover I am very proud of those 300 teachers. the trauma this causes teachers And I have advocated from the moment that I joined this board so that These reductions should be minimal and based in the registrations and not only in budget. We are not the only ones the only district with this deficit. And what is it that happens? It's that there are others in others districts many positions have been eliminated and not because of the registrations, but because the budget. So there's no need. We are not reducing to 300 teachers tonight. These reductions are due to the money from just once we already knew it was going to end, as Mrs. Rosentale said, where People will be placed in other positions and partly It is due to the inscriptions that
073decreased. I know that when you have Children in a classroom need to have a teacher in front of them. That is basic mathematics. However, we must to be butlers financially to make decisions without harming the Furthermore, but seeing the benefit of district. We are not in a crisis right now. We are trying to prevent it and the To say that there is a decline is false. We are preventing a fiscal crisis and I am not the sole president on the boards of directors schoolchildren. He was seen when a district is not being solvent, They come and close the board meeting. They remove it And others will come who can answer. Because if we keep saying that we are So, in trouble, what's going to happen? pass? This entire board of directors is going to... They're
074going to remove us and replace us. when the county takes control. There are some districts that... years have been in deficit. So I have to see the future impact in this district and to help ensure there are no fixed positions low. So when you say that I have a conflict of interest, no I have. maybe ignorance or the goal that that if we keep saying the same thing They can remove this board and take control of the county and that the public has no voice. Two things can be true at the same time or many things can be true in the same way time. And the truth is that my heart It is broken, I'm in pieces, but I know I must be responsible as a member of the board directive and I'm sorry. to
075those who are affected. I have respect for the district that follows the rules regarding the registrations And I'm not minimizing anything because hurts. And now I'm going to give the public the opportunity to address this. I I still have something to say. Forward. Dr. Reyes, can you explain? There are six positions for early childhood education and teachers preschool. Why are they there? If, like when we opened TK Kinder in transition, the preschool has declined. So So We reduced the need for preschool. Yes, teachers will be hired if They have the credentials. I open the public hearing. Ka good Superintendent Reyes and Board of Directors. I am a mother of a child in the district. I'm also here to talk about the cuts in the next school year and employee services certificates. I was thinking that
076the a counselors and other teachers who help, I thought they were the only ones that were going to be cut, but I'm already seeing that 90-something positions, 95 positions are the ones that will be to be cut out. different education teachers special, advisors, physical education teachers, teachers from kindergarten, teachers of education specialists early, master of special studies, leadership directors, The CBST model is that each child It has great value and what they are doing It hasn't been showing lately, and the district is paying a total of more than $360,000 in connection of the resignation of from the human resources leader, deputy superintendent of resources humans and will have its benefits or until it has another job. It will be cut down to 2027. And I ask, why? These are just a few items from the
077voice of San Diego and it also seems to me alarming that the superintendent and staff Open Cup quoted the superintendent as saying won in 2024 and so many 419,000. And according to Public records increased from 23 on the 24th, 20%. And other staff the district also gained additionally $1,000 more per year, $300,000 over $300,000 a year These cuts do affect the salons and almost more than 100 people will lose their jobs. There must be a better one option. Thank you for your time. Aaron Hates. Aaron Hates. Hello, thank you for giving me the opportunity to speak. I am a master at Harvard, currently sixth grade and I am talking about the discharge. On Monday I received a very, very email lazy and they had just put me on ah permanently and yesterday when I went
078to the meeting in the district, they told me I am one of 39 teachers that they will be deregistered. The teacher is going to talk more about what will affect students, especially on Harper Side, but they I want them to have empathy about the 39 teachers who want to resign, many who were given the opportunity to to be permanent. I want to share my story, but I hope that each teacher's strengths stand out and also personal that you are trying to cancel. I started my career here. I began my career in in the unified Los Angeles when I I realized that my dad was very ill. Then I left everything. and I came to San Diego. And while I have state in San Diego and I got hired at Harvard Side and We are studying
079the students in The community, it hasn't been easy. When I was granted permanent status, I felt so happy, not only because continue working at Harvard Side, but give me stability in my life. My dad is... getting sicker and sicker and he has fewer days left. And not only that So now they're telling me that my job is... unstable. And I share this story, I hope that to share not just one number in front of you, but for tell them that each name is a person and he has a family and he has a history and which will affect in different ways and also to the students. Thank you. Brandy Harkin, good night. Before voting this tonight, I hope you will consider Harberside as a result. I have been a teacher here. I have served to
080Harborside. Harberside has been through more instability that many schools. In In the last 10 years we have had eight or nine directors. That means seven or eight directors in 7 years old. Imagine what that does to the personal and with the children. Every time We were finally there we were We were suddenly more resolute again someone new. The children who arrive here in this country facing challenges countless. When they hired new teachers, Many were new to CBSD or to or as teachers. But here's the miracle. Those teachers They were incredible, working harder than anyone could ask. They believed in Harbor Side before I even have anything They wanted to show them something, and they wanted to have something. They had something that inspired them and that It was moving in the right direction. And when
081They finally had this ability, We had a phenomenal director, director and has been more than one year, which makes him a veteran because has lasted. And also to Mr. Aparicio and to Dr. Ortega. And as Aaron said, Many of them were told that They were permanent. And after feeling like a school abandoned on the west side, finally We are seeing progress. The students They were growing, our culture is healing, our families feel connected and feel proud. So, I want to ask you from my Heart, why are they taking this away from us? By What now? Why, when we finally Is the school doing well? Two teachers who are on your list, are Outside, they're on vacation. motherhood and I don't think they know that are on the list. How do we see them? The eyes?
082new moms, new teachers, people who dedicated themselves to rebuilding a school and tell them they no longer have one a place here. Harbide It will return from years of instability And these teachers should no longer be dismissed. It doesn't just hurt them, but also the students, our families and all that we have worked to rebuild. Please do not undo the progress that We have worked so hard to achieve this. Fabo. Good afternoon, President Ugarte, Dr. Reyes and all the members of the table directive. My daughter has been in the heritage since kindergarten and now it's in fourth grade. I am here to tell them to reconsider the position of the advisor. I know that the The district has a large deficit, but Despite this, they must fight for the positions of the councilors, because the
083advisors The counselors are a great help to the children. especially with their emotions, their anxieties, and a student who is not well socio-emotionally He can't focus on his studies. Me The girl was diagnosed with anxiety in second grade and that affected their studies and she wasn't the only one with difficulties that year. And right now too There is a mother here who also has a daughter. She was struggling, and so were other girls. struggling with This is about socio-emotional. Two years later, after having learned these strategies with the advisors, have allowed her to I performed very well in school. And last year the councilor built a group for third grade children and In other words, they are being taught how to be children and at the same time learn. This director, has had a great
084positive impact and has been able to create more groups this year and help children in different school schedules, including recess and play games on the black platform and many teachers too has also been able to to talk about different topics. So, these are examples of the students interacting and benefiting of the advisors. I would like to conclude by saying again that other students have also benefited from the guidance and the dedication of the advisors and that this It is important for their education and their well-being. Thank you very much for your consideration. of Sims. Good night. I am a counselor from CBSD speaking on behalf of the families and students and how this It affects all social workers and advisors. We were informed that Some schools will operate without advisor next year. So what This
085happens when this help is available. Do not give to children when they are being bullies or who are experimenting a family separation and don't know what do? or when they have a crisis emotional and are affecting others students. When a child has a grandfather who no longer He is with them, how do they receive the support so that the pain does not turn into behavior? How are they taught? strategies for dealing with the teachers can teach and the Can students learn? For many students, school is the only place where they can receive constant mental and emotional support. Rigorous learning for all is not can happen without providing them with emotional support the children. And this if they are reduced These positions, who Will it help the children next year? access Mental health support should not
086depend on which school The child attends. In 2026, 2027, the advisors are not extra staff, but They are valuable and essential. I hope the district reconsider and thank you. Rachel Lopski. Good afternoon. My name is Rachel Lapasky. I am a second grade teacher degree in Rose Bank. Thank you for your time and care. I understand that there are financial challenges And I'm not here without taking that into account, But I am concerned that almost 100 People, teachers are going to be given low. Every decision we make, we have to take into account the mission of well-being of the children and that's why we are here. We are the ones who are working in the fields and supporting emotionally, mentally and creating safe environments where the Children can succeed. When we eliminated These positions, we are
087not only... dealing with numbers, but also with children's daily experiences. And I would also like, as Dominguez wanted to know, Ramirez Dominguez, if each room needs one teacher and when you reduce a teacher or teacher, You're putting more children in a classroom and not in this way children are not helped. handle at 2 gr at the same time. That reduces the time, decreases the individual tension, behaviors They increase when children cannot go with the advisor and regulate their emotions, their behaviors. And psychologists can't do that if They are conducting tests and managing other things that need to be reinforced. And as Mrs. Cassy said, I understand I know what they're saying, but no They are realizing that this is about, that is, in the living room how we're going to be and the professionals that
088we work with children every day. I tell the board whether we should make cuts, which It's very obvious, The most should be done far from potential teachers. The classrooms should be the last place where to cut resources, not the first. This is not about protecting jobs of adults, but the quality of education, which is the intention and therefore the which They are here and why the children receive the instruction, the approach. The district works for the students. The largest investment that What we can do is preserve the teachers and adults. in their schools, which serve them directly. Thank you for your time, your service and consideration. Rosy Martinez, good evening. As I do every year, I want to express my concerns on the closure of several several rooms. This does not justify, I don't know
089if he's going to say anything. Maybe We are looking at putting on leave teachers who have worked here for years and hope that This will not only affect the 39 teachers that they notice, but also the amount of of allocations that will be affected. We know that they have to be done projections, not only with the registrations, even before they begin registrations, every year we put the teachers in this type of stress. We ask that you consider more numbers realistic and as little as possible disruptive possible. If they have to do reductions, we ask that there be more prudent, since I have asked as in other years. See how they're made projections in other districts, because This demoralizes the teachers, it causes stress and in entire schools that have to deal with the stress of
090their colleagues. Thank you. Close. There are no more speakers. Now I'm going to close the public hearing. Tamayo, thank you. Dr. Reyes, can you tell me what it is? What is the cost of the 10 advisors? Mr. Pong has the numbers like a million dollars. Also the teachers of resources Is the staff being cut or are we? the schools, the teams. One of the things this process does very difficult And you've already heard me say it, It is the imbalance in the manner that the state provides money. The government tells us, This is the proposed budget, But that budget is going to change and It changes in May. And that's where the governor He knows. But we need to make projections. based on needs and because of So we have this deadline of the 15th.
091March. By March 15th we have to Notify all certified personnel that there may be a that they be discharged and I have to notify before even know to the budget because otherwise We notified you before March 15th, then If we do have to make cuts, no can. We have to pay for the reservation of others funds that many sometimes it's from the reservation. So, I won't be there. saying that their services, but that's why the table directive has extended that you are in the district for more than 2 years, because the money we used to hire them It was COVID funds, but We knew we needed the advisors and we still need them and People say, "Oh, the district I had a lot of money in reserve. Yes, yes We had it and we started
092using it in You, in maintaining those services. Because? Because that's what the reserve is for, to continue supporting the students. Now, you've seen our budget, We can't keep supporting it anymore, no more We have enough. I am very optimistic and I have hope, but the governor proposes give us funds to maintain it, But this is the problem. He said funds all at once. So, that means Yes, you can. Oh, sorry, in May, in May we might... Say yes, the money is there, and tell us, "Okay, use it or plan to use it." But we'll be in the same place again next year, if the following one The governor doesn't prioritize us, if not prioritize mental health. And I'm telling you this not because I don't want it. Whether I want to extend it or not,
093I'll tell you. I say this because I want you to know now that If we get the money, which I hope we will. Yes, everything seems to be the case, everything It points out that yes, you are aware which is a one-time payment and that we're going to extend it for another year and that we are at the mercy of the state that gives us more funds to continue with the mental health thing. That being said, I think we already clarified that it's not 100. people who will be affected, There are 56, which I think is also important declare yes It seems there are 100 positions, but There are 56. Now I would like tell them this needs to be changed and continue using reserve, but not. If I do that, the county It won't
094work He will not validate our budget third year. So, we have to certify with the county that we can not achieve with our budget not only this year, but the third year also. And if we don't succeed, if we don't Our budget will last us for 3 years. then the cash forces us to cut or they take control. So, no We want that. AND I think everyone knew that this The time was going to come, we had to Cutting services, but it's still there It's difficult, and it's hard to cut off services. Yes, listening to so many teachers here there are times Yes, several thoughts crossed my mind. such as combinations These are things that many of us don't like. But I was thinking that we have approved several things such as a retirement, a
095retirement. Uh-huh. Congratulations that it's his turn to live his life. But these They are examples of, for instance, We have Dr. Rosondale doing Great job, thank you for your job. And we don't have the other position and she is doing the work. So, what I'm watching, by Why don't we fill those positions too? Just as we ask other teachers to do other things. Dr. Reyes, can you speak? Can finish first? Well, you're doing a question. Give me a second. So, my thought is that there are other ideas, No? As we have seen the money of title two as in the squads and based on some questions I have now, if Would you consider a special meeting in a A week or two and maybe it can give us an opportunity to lower that a little
096more number before March 15. Would you consider that with respect to what ah managers, how much is it? Ah, like a million dollars. Right now I know that the CEO of Human resources is already leaving. then he already resigned. He got another job, then that position It will be reduced, It's going to be the same, the same chores, But we're thinking of lowering it to two more levels And then how do people leave? Reduce it to reduce the cost. It's possible as long as the person is there, but depending on how they move, or if they're not there, or if they leave. we can reduce it with respect to the question of projections, We can see the numbers in two weeks. again. But in two weeks Ah, it's too little time to know. Another thing
097we need to see are the people who currently are out on maternity leave or illness or other reasons. We don't know when those will return until... end of March. And we're going to say teachers that maybe they'll go to another state, another city, we won't know that until let it happen. And also as we said that one-time funds like the The governor promised, we won't know until May. So I understand that we want to see the numbers Because these are people, these are jobs, But I'm not sure if two weeks is enough time to see the difference for the reasons I already shared. So, the other two positions I saw it, but I don't know what they're like, that's why I... I am sharing, but the thought of sharing with you and how this directly
098affects not only not to the teachers, but to the students that they won't have their time to teaching because it is not enough time for the teachers give their teaching fully to each degree. So, maybe we can jotting down ideas or as we said, they are people And I say extend it as a loss, put that item in the agenda because also the administrators and each of the teachers They raise his salary, and so do the... administrators. So, they shouldn't raise the... administrators, but even until there is until they improve in something that they to the teachers. So, what I'm hearing the thing is remove that piece from them, I mean, I know it's a lot of work. I'm talking about the article. It's because there's a scale that happens every time. It was in
099the contract you showed me. We're coming back. We're not talking about that, we're talking about the article about what you you asked, what became of What are you asking for? and the position, the vote, removing certified positions. The teachers, It says here about the teachers from elementary school. Primary school classroom teachers. Mrs. Rosendell, the numbers are changing daily to how we receive we will be able to adjust the information number and we understand the workers social workers and advisors. But if they were one-time funds, as I understand, There is nothing I can do. The next meeting is on March 4th. So, I will second that motion. to remove the article by classroom teachers of primary general education. That? I have a question before that. What's happening to a school if it doesn't have a counselor
100mental health? Can it be rotated? What's going to happen? Let's say there will be schools without mental health counselors. As works if they don't give us the money he promised governor? Yeah. Sad, sad, but it's a reality and the budget is insufficient. So, the motion that Domínguez Cervantes was doing I think it was removing of the resolution the teachers of the elementary classrooms to bring back that corner. for the meeting on March 4th. Motion. What's up? I second that. I second her. What I understand is that the motion is that Let's revisit that on March 4th. teachers in the classrooms, in the elementary schools. Ramírez Domínguez, I. Domínguez Cervantes, me. Toltin, I, Tamayo, me, Ugarte, me. Motion passes Let's finish. Article 12, the first and second reading. This is the second reading. We have a
101speaker who has asked talk A and B. Mary Davis. Hello, good afternoon. I'm not going to take everything I will respect the time. Many Thank you for the article you just read put it back on the agenda. I don't know what I'm seeing that Two items are connected. I don't know What are the reasons behind this? But the fact that they seem to be connected It gives me chills and I feel like that there's something else going on behind the scenes I don't want any cameras here, and that's all I want. remind people of of the things that are like the the fraud. from the criminal fraud, of computer, Ah, from kindergarten to 12, to corruption. What scares me is the crime, because we saw a member from the table as he exercised his who
102exercised his right of the first article of talk. Then I wouldn't want there to be ah damages against and I ask for your manual that that you govern as best as possible. that that they edit several things there in that because that they please do what they have to to do, No more ah for the students, but for his duty and? be members who are doing it right and before God. Here I am. He was asked last time that they check the use of lawyers last time and we checked everything and We clarify that the lawyers do know that... They use it for the board of directors, but not for the members of the board of directors individually. First I want to tell the table that about this statute in a time of fiscal crisis.
103This sends the wrong message. especially reputation. The statute is a tool of government. the statutes. CBSD. If you look, D already maintains the policy. addressed Regarding ethics, confidentiality, and that this not be misused. This will strengthen public confidence. I would ask that there is another version, that there is one alternative version of this statute. I just want to clarify that. member tamo. We use the same as C. That's CSBA. But CSBA is aspirational. This is part of the bylaws package in CSBA, as it says on page 4, that this It should not be based on a difference of opinion nor do I go down to the expression, as stated the article in the law. I ask you, I can, you can do this. Let's go to say that you want to censor me. If you're
104trying to censor me, so Yes, all members can try it. present it to the board of directors and They have to say why. And the table The board may have legal advice for Let's see if that's enough. to progress for censorship. So, censorship isn't about anything. Furthermore, the members want to censor me. me, that they have to present it to the table and review the legal advice and then the legal advice advises the table and say, "Yes, no." And if not, well try again. Then no necessarily It's because two members hate Tamayo, It must be censored. So, with censorship, just as you have stated, It does not limit the member of the table directive. It's a statement that they do not agree with the actions or the behavior of a member of the board, but
105yes There is a list of what types of shares or what behavior that is grounds for censoring it. And it says there that a member can be censored due to certain conduct that that you rape substantially the standards. So it's very specific. So I am simply strengthening the vocabulary that's already there. I am strengthening it. It's not taking away what's already there. You put it there and it protects us from anything legal thing in the future, because you don't You'll be here forever and nobody further. So I would offer, if you can offer this language to see if these can be better language and if sunset dates, In other words, there are things that are dated. 1999, There is no such thing as states, But there is a statute that says that We need to
106review This, uh, frequently And that's what as the policy committee has it that you're reviewing, that policy change it, have a better one frequency such as 2 years. That's why it's done the Sanse thing. So, your sance is the revision or if That will be in a statute of the board. directive, but in every statute and every The statute needs to be reviewed because then we fall into the trap we have now that there are policies at the table directives that are older than the member Ramírez Domínguez Or we are missing like this, like the lawyer. To the other Tamayo member. If you look at this, it's strengthening what already exists have. All I'm asking is Show it to the lawyer, they They're coming in a few weeks, they They see it and that's all
107there is to it. strengthening vocabulary. I'm going to To say something, there's nothing to prevent us. then change the policy. No, yes, there is. It will prevent it because You're not going to talk about it again, and no one else. We can ask the lawyer, and if he says it strengthens him, If it's better, we'll add it. With that, then I approve it as it is. and I'll go and ask the lawyer, It is seconded. I have a comment before I do that. I believe that historically we have had problems when we approve statutes and then we returned and the We reviewed. We have a proposal to review it and We'll be back in two or two weeks. weeks and a half. I would say, Why approve it now if you can review and make
108sure that everything is legally done Can you specify? Because we already had a problem with the squad closed, specific, Ah, direct and that it didn't happen interpretation. So, from my point of view, those being Here in three weeks, why not Take it, then bring it back, and then talk. about it back then? But if the lawyer comes and says that If it stays the same, then we'll go back to talk about all this again. We had one vote, TRUE? Yes, we can talk about this. No? That's what we do. But I mean, If we put it on the table last time, Uh, it was at the first hearing and this It is now, so it would have to decide now. Yes, it can be approved. We can vote right now and not approve it. There
109is nothing to prevent it. But one of Things I want to remind everyone of We requested a review of Fake Man amendments at the board meeting and we are trying to work on those policies, right? And we've made several, and this is one. which will also be part of it. But if you see what I offer, I'm not giving a blank page or I want this. It is not recreating nothing with respect to come to the boss and to present a problem without a solution, such as, Let's look at the amendment, Let's see Amendment Four. If you compare the two languages with ah amended language, But that's on page two. Those aren't your words, but that's what it is. It says there. Are No, I didn't say those were my words. You You're proposing this.
110They are yours words. For me, you put it that way, if someone... He gave it to you, but this is your proposal and These are your words. If you are proposing this, this is what it says there in the Page two, protect your expression under the first amendment. You don't have to specify that the member from the table. Okay, then we can talk about this after. Anyway, I'm moving to Try it. The second thing has already moved and second Ramírez Domínguez no. Domingo Cervantes, don't toast me, Tamayo I, Uguarde I. Motion passes 32. Government standards. I have questions. If there are no questions, I'd like to offer to go here first. inclusion to the table register And I'm going to read what I have. What you I just gave. This is my statement as a
111member. I Amendment 9005, given that It is with regard to the amendment of the table 9251. I have concerns that certain provisions such as the amendment 9005. Five. Table 9005 amendment. He speaks of governing with purpose, with dignity and integrity, while These are interpretations, are open to the interpretation and with politics from table 9251, This may be the basis. against a member that is different from most people's as officers elected. Members should not to give their rights nor that they be trampled on. OK. I ask that the table directive clarify explicitly that protects freedom of expression, that documents conflicts of interest and ensure that government standards do not penalize the differences. My position asks integrity as a body from the table. And there's my signature. And there's my signature for the records. And how are
112you talking? By all that, I mean again... the amendment 92521. There you have protected expression. member, I'm not trying to challenge your work, I'm just trying to strengthen it This is for the future. I'm not anymore asking for consideration for my considerations, for my statements. There's more here too. amendments for you to consider. These amendments are Yes, 9005. I'm not challenging anything. And here it is if you want it. I don't know if the president I want a copy of these. Yes I have enough copies. I have a question that has to do with The other one, but since we're talking about it This, censorship It stays in your record. Yes, there is no record. It stays in the minutes of the meeting, but There is no record as personal that I am going I'm
113applying for a job and someone is going to to say, "Oh, it was censored." I mean, I want to know why that is not identified and I want to make sure that everything is clear and specified, that everything is clear, because I do believe that A person's reputation is very valuable, at least to me, and well, I It may not be registered, But in terms of reputation, and I understand what that means. It is written. But I want to support what Delia said. Ah, we need to make sure that with great power comes great responsibility, but it is Literally, I don't want to be approving in mine that they can be And you go on saying, not only for these things, but in my mind, forget it, I'll come back and I read it because
114I want to see it. says, "Not only." So, that means there will be one. a point where there is a difference of opinion and protected expression. Yes, having that specific word that It doesn't just mean that it is, that it will be considered as part of censorship. When you put these words and those These are the things we were talking about Speaking, if you say not only, This means that it will be considered to censor. So, I'll give you an example. Let's say we have a policy of censoring and the amendments and the next meeting, You do not agree with the vote and you write an article to censor, to censor me, and with That would be protected under the censorship directive. You have to say, member Tamayo He came out and spoke of something
115we talked about in that session or of something that I went and attacked in public or I I went to a meeting of people who They do not share certain thing and you as a member yes You can take part, ah from someone, but it's not going to be something that because I didn't agree with you on some article or a policy on the table or a certain article that we voted on at the end of the day. If you look at our standards, Yes, we are going to have a disagreement. But It's always going to be, oh, we're all from agreement on each article, but once the table, the whole table takes a decision, We need to support that decision. even if we don't like it. At the end of the day, The board
116made the decision and that's where the power lies. True, it's not that Otamayo has the power of lead the district. Okay, but I have a ask. Let's say that you and the President Ugarte meet And they want to censor me. She is the only one who can contact the lawyer, TRUE? So let's turn it over. Let's say And we want to censor you. And the president Hugarte says, "No, we don't." We can contact the lawyer." Then, If two people say, "We have to You have to contact the lawyer. do." The mind says, "If two people they come together and whatever they are saying, you're going to contact the lawyer. First, it would have to be on the agenda. So if it's not on the agenda, then no It happens. So let's go to the agenda
117Tamayo again, you're the victim. here. Yes, we wanted to censor you, but President Hugar tells you It's not on the agenda. So, How long are we going to postpone it? one year, half a year, I just want to make sure Because that's not here, and I'm going back to... Likewise, it's not on the agenda. So, if there is a specification that We are working, as Do we make the requests? How much The district has something to schedule that Are they asking for two members of the board? Because Delia, you were asking for the table, how many months in the summer of 2024 and it hasn't happened until now? But she requested it, and I seconded it. That's why it happened, not just because it He asked for a member, but I seconded him. And then
118Ah, we spoke with Figma and Figma said, "Right now we don't have it, we can't because We are dealing with the fires and Then we began what she said." So, what you're saying is... that if one member says it and another says it second, Until then, it will be in the agenda. Yes. And one of the things I I'm working is because right now it's not clear. We can request, we'll... In other words, an article and then they would have More things to schedule. And if not We scheduled it because it took us a long time. scheduling an article, then no We got to him, but he was scheduled. So, what you're saying is that if there is an article scheduled by a member like triple X or triple G and it wasn't touched, I
119mean, oh, it was scheduled, No? Whatever that cannot be discussed in a meeting, Next question, right? AND Let's hope we continue, and well, that Let's talk about that. Member Tamayo, to conclude conversation, Why did I work so hard on both? in the amendment lie 900 5 and 91 that creates that which, combining the two amendments creates an unintentional creature, it which causes these things. So, because That's what I was telling you to consider I've noticed this and I'm glad that it's happening. combine because That's what I'm asking you for. as because combined they can create a a monster that can be misused. Yes, I have a motion to try. I mean, this was adopted in 2022, already It existed, it was just checked. We existed too. I'm not going to not even acknowledge that. I'm
120watching all references. We're just going to review something that's already been done. It existed, and even though it wasn't here... Our amendments, anyway We can use everything to take action, like We were talking about it. Correct? Even if this language does not exist, the government code It gives us the power to do exactly this. The fact that we have a amendment is for easier consumption from the table. The The alternative is that we Let's go into Let's start looking at pieces and finding all regulations. If we enter the education code 350 There is a seconded motion. Ramírez is Sunday means no until it's clear. Domingo de Cervantes, no until Tamayo has the opportunity to See the recommendations. To me, Tamayo I, play you. Motion passes 32. I shouldn't. Article 13. Result regarding the CAS. Pour
121it for me. Already. We have the results of the CASP, the California board by Cindy Fernández. So, progress and all the work we are Representing today is the work represented by the teachers, the support staff, the directors, the district team, they have worked incredibly hard to to have these results, but in the end They are the students. We are excited to share the progress today and we have a new metric on the dashboard California that 75% the students are demonstrating accelerated progress. We also have some of our own directors and the team here who would like I honor. With these results, I'll pass this on to you. microphone to Mrs. Montgomery. Thank you, ma'am. Morales, President Ugarte. Lady Morales, today I'm very excited, nothing like to share with you the results of California board and
122give them the results from our district on behalf of the students. This year, as he said Mrs. Morales, we have a new metrics and we're excited about share this growth to tell them how are the students progressing, Hey, and also indicators. And here it is Also, as Mrs. Morales said, We have the directors here. In this For now, I want to introduce Cindy Estrada, our coordinator for induction and evaluations and they will Review this and also the things that are there What to highlight about the schools. Hello good nights. Uh, everything they just said We're going to say it and we're going to be here Hey Dr. Reyes, cabinet. Here it is, and what it means This is from the last school year. So, before Let's get into the data, let's see the two systems
123that we are going to be referring to and during the presentation. CASP is what it measures achievement in English, mathematics and sciences. And the California board is the reporting system that provides the how they perform in many indicators. So, let's look at these presentation, this in the presentation tonight. These systems use CASP evaluations and then they are the California results and reports the number and percentage of students that are within the performance level, levels 1, 2, 3 and 4. And the board of California reports eh the academic indicators and we're going to talk about them tonight. So, the Next slide you will see the CAS results from last year. These data is not used as a measure definitive, but as a point for to validate our progress, to celebrate success and also areas for growth.
124So you can see here that in language and literature 53.38 The students fulfilled it or They had higher scores. And in this table They can also see the number of students. At level four we had approximately uh level four, level three there was a decrease and level one and two also They decreased slightly. That means that fewer students are at the level low. Lights in general are movements positive, where this means that More students are exceeding the standards. So, let's look at the math. 45.94. The students met or exceeded the standards. We saw a peton, the number of students at level 4 of Last year with level three too, huh increasing a little and at level two It stayed almost the same, and level one... Yes, it decreased a little. In general, the Performance in
125mathematics is a slightly less than the English one. So, as a district, we are giving professional learning for all district teachers and leaders aligned with the California framework and the California standards. These will ensure access to math instruction for everyone the students. In the area of science, 38.5% of our students, eh They fulfilled their promise. We are looking at the table on the right. You see the number of students in Levels three and four were increased. Level one has decreased. You They'll notice that most of the science students are at the level two, which almost meet the standard. It is very important to know that although the students take the test Science in fifth grade, this covers kindergarten fifth. with kindergarten standards fifth and also the practices of engineering and our TCK Science, which is
126the curriculum that we already have a couple of years and is aligned with NG GSS and it provides many opportunities and resources aligned to CASP. In fact, CBCD is providing professional training in the area science for all teachers fourth grade. Now we're going to fourth and fifth grade, sorry. And here There's the California board. This is a reminder of what it looks like. You Come on, where do all these colors come from? determined by two factors in the board. The status that has been since very low to very high and change that is uh from a from an increase or also a decrease. We have to be careful and there are that caution is necessary, not just in pay attention to the color, because the growth also has to do with the Ah, model. So,
127for example, a school that is performing in the half and that it is improving is more promising with that one with a high performance that a decrease. But the change over time is very important in color when we are evaluating progress. The California board includes two indicators and are parts of a state accounting. eh includes it academic, English, mathematics and science, student progress In English, chronic absenteeism, also the suspension indicators and also The indicators are the indicators local ones that are the basics, the implementation masters of the academic standards, participation of parents and families and the dashboard also reports the groups of students. So, if a group of students is Under 30, there won't be any comparison. assigned to the board. And we do that for purposes of confidentiality. It's something that if you see
128a group in the board that doesn't, that doesn't have color, it would be, well, white. And also when they're on FS he wants to say that they are far from level three. This showed me how far I've gone in my performance the student is ah with respect to academic standards and the subject. shows the sample the distance between the student's grade and level three performance. Here is a example of a fifth grade math. A rating of 2,528 is needed to comply with standard. And here it is with the date green. And if a student qualifies 2,500, so they are minus 28 points of what is needed. And you can see it here in the yellow triangle. Here's another one example. If the student had 256, This means they are more than 40 points ahead. what
129is expected. So what we do These are the distances of the standards. And here's an example of what it would look like. And in this case, uh, the distance The average of the standard is 8.1 points. points below the standard. So, now that we have the understanding what the board is and How is it reported? Well, let's see... dashboard data 2425 for CBS of the indicators local, including the basics. implement of the academic standards, uh the family participation and also eh the environmental survey. Here it is we see. Uh, they gave us a yellow indicator for chronic absence for the progress of the apprentices English students. On the next slide You'll see how they performed. the different groups, but first I want to share with you the new indicator that they heard in the introduction.
130This year on the board There is a new indicator which they call the growth indicator. this year for eh language and literature and math, uh, they're doing it because first time and in this graph it's the ah performance levels, as well as the percentages of students whose grades improved because of those of past years. It's a little confusing because There are many colors here on the board. with this new indicator. So, I put the keys here in the top part, minimum, moderate, average, accelerated and exceptional. And at the bottom you see in where CBSD falls. We are proud of share that 76.3% 3% of our Students improved their grades from last year and 75.8 improved their grades in math compared to the previous year and in those we are in two areas in improving and
131in accelerated progress. Here's another way to look at cans. Here it is in our students the distribution of the colors in the different indicators. This helps us identify the gaps. and where additional support is needed. On this next slide you will they can see This is a 2-year comparison and we can see that our groups students have changed the colors in the right direction. So that The growth trend is here in the red area. This group of students has decreased from five to three, orange from 16 to 10. Uh, the yellow ones have increased from 19 to 26 and the students in green from 15 to 22 and the groups of students in blue of 6 9. This positive change It is proof of the hard work of the students, the teachers, of our commitment
132to the district. As I mentioned, Each indicator has a 5 by 5 table and it has the colors and this can change. So let's go over each one indicator like all others in the district They are here in language and literature and Where are our schools for language and literature or English. 31 of our schools were in high or very high status and that increased significantly in language and literature for mathematics. Again, the 31st Our schools complied with the using the same criteria, they increased as high and very high status or that increased in the area of mathematics. Uh, all 31 are the same schools, right? They are not the same. Some yes, some no. Yes, it's very small. We have so many schools that we can't put them all on one slide. For science
133in the area of sciences 28 The number of schools was elevated. very high status or significantly high in this area. our the students who are learning English, 17 schools were high. And one key to this The problem is that this doesn't have everyone. students who are being reclassified as English students. It does not have all the students who have have gone through this process and are already being reclassified as students proficient in the English language. for chronic absence 29 of our schools were in the lower or very lower part or significantly low in this area. That is our goal then ah for low status of chronic absenteeism and that They are improving the assistance. That's what we want to see. We have 29 there. And our latest state indicator es son eh las ah when
134students are suspended and We have 22 schools. So now it's over We know how we are, where, how We fall, where our district falls. So, we need to see how we can compare with the districts in our areas. I think I know there's a lot in this one too. So, of the seven districts local, CBSD It is the only district with two indicators Green academics. In English, we are the only district that We are above the standard. In math, CBSD is the closest to meeting the standards. We are at -1.3 points and the others districts are below 37 or 87. In science CBSD has earned a green indicator and has the highest number of points sciences. have the the lowest suspension rate and when we see the new growth model, CBSD is the only district
135with growth in language and literature and math and be at an accelerated level. as district we remain committed analyzing the data, uh, strengthening our systems and ensuring that we are complying with rigorous learning for all. And this is my favorite part. Our first school that I want put the The spotlight is on Hilltop School. Its dedicated staff and students strong, focused and committed. His This work is reflected upon in this board. The Hilton school on the 5th on the California board increased 15.1.1 points in mathematics 9.1 and they won a blue status in science. increasing by 12.3 and they also reduced their absenteeism chronic 3.4%. So, This means that the students They improved, their grades improved And this happens when there is unity and purpose. Congratulations to Hilop School. Dr. Gron was unable to come
136tonight. But he's sending me texts. Next up are the Road Runners from Rise and I know she's around here and it makes us happy to highlight. It is a school because he has won a lot of points. Both in dandruff. And the roadrunners are focused and in the evaluations in descas increased 5.76% in language and literature and 8.98 in math. On the board of California, Rice improved 7.7 points in language and literature. In mathematics 26.4, progress in English 4.7 and also 1.2% in chronic absenteeism. It went down 1.2%. And in this new metric growth demonstrates that 82.5% improved their grades in language and literature and 87.6 in mathematics. Well done, Rise. And finally, we're going to put the spotlight on. with the Eagles in Montgomery. Its director is around here too. In Casp, Monary Mary
137increased by 10.91%. in language and literature, 9.71% in mathematics and science 12.29%. On the California board they are in yellow, increased 10.3 in mathematics, 18.2 in language and literature. So, it says here that 78.3 They improved in math and 93.3 They improved in language and literature. Uh, Montgomery's Eagles are working together and demonstrating what creates a community school. Congratulations, Montgomery. While we finish our In this presentation, I want to reiterate that CBSD is committed to putting the studies to students at the center of it all What do we do? It helps us understand the needs unique to our students and us It also helps to support everyone. HE just. Every decision we make is guided. Our goal is not just so that ah Our students succeed here. We want them to succeed in a path
138of opportunities when they leave CD CD and later you'll see I'm sure they're going to be successful. Thank you so much for the support and dedication to success of our students. Comments from the board of directors. Yeah. I'm giving myself a text. Already Uh, I had the opportunity to visit two schools and the pleasure of seeing a community work very hard. So, Congratulations, ladies. And I was there too. to visit Hill Top. Ah, one of the things I can The point to highlight is that the moment when I I arrived, and my director gave me a sheet of paper. These are the numbers. This is how we we performed before. This is how we we are performing. Now I am learning to read these things. So I told him, "Thank you. I can see how
139much Success, oh and how much, sorry, how much each one of them puts in the effort directors. I love seeing these things that are resulting and I know you have access to everyone in the growth area. So, I want to learn a lot from the people who are doing it magnificently well. Again I'm excited about the growth. It's not just a number, they are growing. That's why we're here. That's why It's because we stayed late, and that's why it's that's where we stayed. Thank you. I love the presentation. This shows us, it doesn't give us an image clearer. I really enjoyed this presentation. I know that Mr. Tamayo and I have requested in the past that the focus is on the students who They have more challenges. Here the trend seems to be also the
140students who have There is financial hardship in your household, then socioeconomic status in their home, So that's where they also have These same students are the ones who They are having academic problems. I am very excited about the work that They are doing this in all schools, But we know there are others too. students who don't have, are experiencing this growth and if you If you think about this, Well, that means they're not that... Happy, right? If they are, uh, no They are experiencing this growth. So, I'd love to see a certain So, what do we have to do to... to identify these students, what is the plan to give them the support that They need. I just want to say congratulations. again to the administrators of district, administrator since the schools and teachers for
141all the work They do it hard. I see it in my son and its growth, Whether your school is here or not, ah, I I see him as one of our children and as he has grown up, the teachers he has and the support he has at school. I only have one question. Certain schools have different strengths, such as They do it in the communities, like, uh, the teachers collaborate together to see that is it working or not? Have different structural opportunities to share collaboration in different levels at the master level and also within learning rigorous for everyone. So, where there is professional learning, the teachers are They all meet at the same time. Have a trainer model, of trainers collaborating, sharing best practices and in that way Our leaders are participating in visits and
142are participating in opportunities to identify the best practices in all our schools, our leaders. Ah, they have action plans, they are seeing the areas of need that are specific to schools, they have strategic plans and also our senior directors They give them training that is specifically prepared for their schools, because there are many schools with a variety of needs. Some have to focus on language and literature, others on math. So, ah, it's done especially designed for the needs. We have that, we have teams that are They come together not only by collaborating in the schools, but also ah There are many systems for that make sure that it is... that it is share things. Obviously these are results magnificent. Our district has improved and continues to improve. improving thanks to the work of our teachers,
143classified staff, and how They also support the classroom and also the They manage those who drive the trucks and from the moment they get on the truck All the students are supporting the schools and I applaud this effort, because it's not just about efforts isolated. So, going back to what There's what Mrs. Dominguez said Cervantes, Hey the slide we saw from arts of language, your number there, You don't need to show it, but it's approximately 2000 students. Is that from first to sixth grade, or what is it? the range of students who take the CAS tests are for students of third to sixth. Represents students from third to sixth grade. And then we have some numbers for the grades of lower elementary, right? Because those of lower primary do not take this assessment. This was
144the first year in that we have implemented to the new difficulty screening and We barely made it past the first one implementation. This is new data. The teachers are just finishing that administration in January, then and as It's a new level of data that we haven't I've kept an account of this. So let's delve deeper and let's identify trends. which are those areas and in those language skills and forgiveness literature literacy, those, uh, those Students need support, what Students need more interventions and what is the the risk and also for the students who are students who speak English. I'm excited to have this data Now with that screening, because I believe that way the superintendent can and develop a plan on how We are going to address the students who do not They are at
145level one. So, I I would like to see the plan soon. Now that we know, these are the students who are far below. What do we need to do to to address these in the best way? That's why you are. You are here. But I do want to see a plan. I want to know what we are going to do different, Because doing the same thing is not enough. We want to ensure that the Students are being cared for. Thank you. We have just finished this administration It's for identification purposes. uh, right away to the students, to those who are at risk or possibly Possible risk, isn't it? And what this does is inform the teachers about what the strengths are of the students, uh, what they understand and it also gives them resources for
146the teachers in the area where they are needed. one Where does it begin? We start with the screening and what this gives us is... very important things that we didn't have before and these data help us. The instruction The core helps us to focus. instruction for all classes, for all the class or for group instruction little. If you see On one side, this is also on a level multi-level support and after There is Title I instruction provided because we want to see where Students are making progress And then we have screening and the evaluation that allows you to see the progress of students over time, not just one And yes. Ah, we can see our information and this will allow us also the monitoring of progress. That's one part of a support system multilevel marketing.
147I just want to verify. Ah, what we did was... We adopted M Class voice reading in English and Spanish as district for our screening which is from kindergarten to second degree, which is administered once per year. This administration was done in January, as Mrs. Estrada said, and We also make sure that we adopt This goes up to sixth grade, because seeing our literacy rates, We need this information for everyone. the students. As I said before, no We had this data before and this information. This is our point of game and we're going to continue having more information on progress and the support for teachers and students. Thank you. I was thinking that they do the assessment in Kindergarten and then again up to third. No, it's an ongoing thing. Yes, exactly. Is part of an
148evaluation system comprehensive. I just want to reiterate what my colleague. Thank you for the presentation. It was magnificent to see the magic of what It's happening in the classroom all day, every day with our instruction assistant, our teachers in schools, our leadership, our directors, that's it It is bearing fruit. I want Oh really? share with, uh, sorry, talk about it that was shared. I know that the Directors are in groups. What can you say as directors? As a teacher? How can we do something different? To achieve this growth? if it They can share with others. I know that this is their job to share. I think it would be wonderful to have these conversations. This is what we do different. Thank you. Okay. The update on the plan local control and accountability and the financing
149formula For the parents, Mrs. Morales. OK thanks. one of the parties and probably me I should have submitted this because we are already here in services of instruction and one of our plans that We developed to be responsible Supporting students is our responsibility. So tonight we want report on our progress in the media year, but in response to the conversation that we had at the last meeting of the board meeting on what it is that what are we going to do with the students that They need more support. We added slides in this presentation for To illustrate that. So, I mean, I'll begin by saying that I want to talk. about our words around the students. So, in today's presentation We are going to share these efforts of district to support our promising students is
150a database of a term that recognizes our the potential of our students, while also acknowledging the challenges and that can impact the results academics for students. are intentional in using in using the promising student term and we We remain responsible as a team to use these words ah like a promise because we don't want to, uh labeling students negatively with eh to plant the seed that are at risk or are failing. So, we would like to present this term today and use it while we speak of our students. Other others incredible members of our instructional services will present Tonight one of our plans is our cap in our learning rigorous for everyone. We have a team and it extends to many people in this room. And I know that You know, Mrs. Lani Pérez, that
151She's magnificent there and does a great job with Elcap and she's going to talk with today of this with today of this today with us. As you know, Here it is. Okay. How do I get back? As you know, the cap is specific for California and it's a three-part plan years and it's to support to support students promising. Thecap It gives us the opportunity to understand why... certain programs are chosen for meet the needs of student. The ELC has goals, it has cat, uh expenses and also We need to follow up on the progress. Then, the ELCP describes how the district plans the benefit for all. However, Ah, it must be specifically directed to low-income students, students who are learning English and young people in care under guardianship. Jessica mentioned the students promising, and I
152want to emphasize that This Elcap is specifically designed with that in mind because here It is important to recognize that these efforts we are making to to ensure that our They have every opportunity to be successful and that this cap is our map for this commitment. So, on this slide you They're going to see the schedule of the preparation of the ELCP and then We started by gathering information with our educational partners in January and These are, uh, participation sessions with teachers, staff, administrators, parents, students and community. Our The first opportunity was at the meeting of DCAC and then our parents from special education. They also had a presentation with Dr. Patel and Schools are now also planning participation sessions with its staff and with its community. We will continue to have information during the
153month of March And right now in February we have the mid-year report that is presented to you. Here we are. And also There will be a public hearing in May at the board meeting for to publicize the proposed ELCAP. And this It's an opportunity for discussion. Oh, and so that the public can give their opinion. So, they're going to give them a draft of the ELCAP 2627. Tonight we are only providing a half-year update and in June 2026 the cap will be approval of the board of directors. So here we have Regarding the topics, we see it here. the right staff for everyone and also support and well-being and support for the students. also to participation and curriculum and instruction and also communication with the houses, with the homes and also safe environments and inclusive.
154prioritize innovation and future skills, address the English students and also efficient operations and resources. So, this ah This is the feedback in which We are working on the opinion of the year past. So, uh, we're going to have a The number one goal is academics, goal two are environments inclusive and safe. Goal 3, English learners, goal four, innovation. Meta CCO are the participation of educational partners. So, for goal number one, That is focused on the part academic. Our work this year is strengthen the standards related to instruction, the conditions that they manage academic growth over time. In language and literature we will focus on in literacy. Teachers receive professional training. beginning of the year and have just administer this assessment and are analyzing the results of screening for kindergarten students second too. And in mathematics
155They are focused on the standards mathematics to provide instruction aligned with standards and we are also committed to that students receive services from special education and have access to instruction aligned. And there are also training courses specific to the job. Elcap's goal Use effective data. Our approach academic support is also provided by learning of the directors. All the schools participated in at least two learning walks this year and we are also investing in the instructional leadership in these teams. As Cindy mentioned, each school eh Capacity Building has is building a strategy aligned with an ELCP goal. At school level. The plans for the use student, she is, are in the, is the goal one, the priority of goal number one. Wow, As a team they monitor the effectiveness of these strategies, adjusting the supports based
156on the student needs. Goal number two is to ensure that that all students feel safe, supported. We already have, right? Yeah. Uh, we've already talked about the system of multi-level support and this is a framework of work that allows you to work, proactively identify the students' needs and give them timely support, whether from behavior, academics or socio-emotional. This school year we have dedicated one to time to understand and strengthen the implementation of the support system multilevel marketing And this speaks to the connections. significant ones that we have built and a also a sense of belonging and We also have a very high priority high and we are planning with our resource officers. Additionally have access to a control project and as previously mentioned, part It has support. This goal also has social support and together
157with these funds and these resources They allow us to have support that addresses the complete child. As part of goal two We are prioritizing support socio-emotional. As I said before, it's a multi-level support system that ensures the approach that all students receive the same level of assistance based on your needs individual. These services include health support mental. Additionally we also have providing behavioral support in all schools, as well as psychologists for attend more. And we also listen to opinions. So this gives the leaders of schools a flexibility to determine where the most is needed support in their schools alongside these are investments, therefore, reflect our commitment to create an environment inclusive, supportive, and safe. our our a commitment that will never stop is support students who are Learning English at CBSD. While I'm looking at
158the results of the pack They reflect the progress in language and we also have English students in the long term, which is a new group of students at NLC. And this has shown also that they gained in proficiency English. So, suggesting that the instructional supports are positively impacting this group of students. We also like to advertise that our reclassification rate has increased this year and also reports on the implementation of focused support to identify the English students in all schools, which includes instruction in small group, train the students, to the instructions of a the instruction assistants for English students. in the domains to accelerate the growth of prophecy. The 272,000 They were not spent this year. This is money of title three because at the beginning of school year There was a freeze, well, it
159They had to freeze federally the accounts of title three And we didn't think that taking them out masters of this title fund three, But it's something we can revisit in the school year 2627 or our version 2627 of the Old Cup. The fourth one focuses on advancing the innovation to expand the extensive learning opportunities for our students. serves approximately to a students in Lead Hub and Lead Club and This provides equitable access to give them enriching and growth experiences that They support student growth during their day of instruction. Our Students continue to have access to the BAPA classes and also education physics. Additionally, the students Students from fourth to sixth grade actively participate in the station experiences, in where they participate in innovative opportunities, collaboration and design thinking. The teachers in Both of these programs
160continue receiving professional training to strengthen the instructions, the instructional practices aligned with our instructional vision to ensure high quality. CBSD continues to have family participation, educational opportunities and also improve our digital communication to ensure that our families They are informed and connected to receive communications through our platforms, flyers and translation and other services interpretation to ensure accessibility for all. For example, 1000 families, more than 1000 Families attend our expo community and we have representation from the 43 schools in our program of Ambassador parents. The district has had these meetings, eh until June 2026, where they learn regarding the district's initiatives, They are working to increase participation of families in building community with each other. Now that we have shared our progress after six months in our five goals, I want to pause and gives And
161this brings us to our students Ah, promising, and the support they received. we give. Our approach is a multi-level support system giving them instruction Oh, and also integrated support. supporting our students promising. This is a district-wide system, not just a unique program. Our approach ensures that every student has continuous access to high-level instruction, at the level of grade and paired with supports that are based on identifying their needs. We started having access to the standards aligned to instruction essential instruction and this is And we also have the universal evaluator. and also classroom assessments classes to support teachers while they identify their strengths, They monitor their progress and adjust instruction. as needed. This Work is part of our development continuous of our system multilevel marketing. When studies receive support additional aligned with the instruction From the
162classroom, they can accelerate their progress. extended opportunities of learning and socio-emotional support also to give them time to address the conditions. Schools have a very important role critical in this role for the plans of CPSA. The directors and the teams They analyze this data to use strategically Title One or Elcaples funds student support. These supports They are intentional. As I said, our support for promising students It begins in every school. For example, We're going to highlight Montgomery School again and again a little bit of information on how they did it. At Montgomery School we have a resource teacher who is providing support to identified students. They use multiple data resources, including and the CASP and the ELCAP. to identify the students from third to sixth grade who They need more support, more assistance. Then they
163intervene and monitor progress. These supports include reading, writing, and support aligned with the classroom instruction and It is designed to address the specific learning needs. The school team actively monitors student progress through feedback from the teachers, from the data of the exile that is They check to adjust the supports necessary. As a result of this strategy, the principal and the school They continue to monitor the results. to ensure that the supports are responsive and effective for their students. Supporting promising students It is also a strategy that we see district level. We use supports from district to support students in all schools in aligned with the goal of Chapter 3. We have also language support for students English to strengthen access, the participation and progress in the learning. This year we had 26 instruction assistants who
164gave 8 weeks of supplemental instruction focused and focused on autumn for 100 students identified in all schools of district. This support was strategically designed around English students, focusing in listening, writing, and reading. and they gave them ensuring that the students of English received aligned support that was going to accelerate the growth of its language. This concludes our report on Elcap. Thank you for your support our plan and more than anything for our CBSD students. Thank you. questions from the board or comments.
