Thank you very much, President Ugarte. Today We have for the board of directors so that Please review it so they can check and approve it. Please, this policy. We have some updates that were that could authorize for travel. We previously had

013the A4133, that this is the one that is replacing it, which gives the district a little more flexibility in the approval process to be able to, well, many times, ah We know a little bit about conferences late, so oh, in order to pass those internally. So, through of the internal process, instead of having to bring it to the table of education and this allows the district to flexibility for the travel process. Mr. Pon, I have a question. Because? Because they wanted to replace them. What happened? We have been working with our county office on these policies and They have recommended that we Let's make this policy more up-to-date. So, previously eh in the human resources area they were 4,000 and 3,000. We have no one who talk about this article. Comments or questions from the

014board. You're talking about 41141a, TRUE? And you're talking about 4133 And maybe I'm completely lost, But I don't see any reference to this. I would like, What you're doing is bringing it from the human resources department financial aspect. That's what it is happening. Yeah. and also administrative regulation and we also added a little more of language to give those guidelines. Well, we waited so long that I don't know... the urgency in this and I know the norm First, drive a first and then in the following month do the second reading at a separate meeting to allow the community to give its opinion. And I think I would like it for your consideration also that we Let's wait until next month. It may be that today is the first reading and the following meeting, Sorry, the

015first hearing and the next meeting, the second hearing, because this would allow the stake. There is public opinion in a policy of the board of directors. Uh, it has to be called first audience and possible adoption. The title says I only do it if there's no emergency. to give the community the opportunity give their opinion if there is no one problem with this. So, one of the things we do as a committee policy regarding this, the three policies that we are The recommendations presented today are not nothing more from the county office San Diego, but also from the Association of California Boards of Directors. Many of our policies have not Updated in many years, eh, and as The regulations have changed and we are seeing them become stricter with our policies, we want make sure

016we are updating consistently following the recommendations, not just from the county of education, but also what it says CSBA and the education code. travel expenses. I know that everyone They agree that we need that make sure everything is up to date and that we are following the code of education and that we are following the recommendations from the office of county, the education office of county that sees that reviews our our expenses. Yes, we could wait. longer. This article may be resubmitted if there are concerns from the public. That's why It was published. Dr. Reyes, can we have a explanation of the type of this type of policy regarding all tables directives? Yes of course. We have one of our lawyers here. Yes, Mr. Pearl. Good evening, board of directors of Dr. es Personal, community,

017they asked me to saw politics and before this meeting, and I didn't just see This is this policy, but as he said Mr. Pong and also Mr. Tamayo, I I compared this policy with others policies that other school districts They have them, and what this does is continue that language. Administrative regulations are a Slightly different, but part of what it is What's important is that it has the quantities and that Ah, the amounts are in line with others districts, as well as the reimbursement of food and what the state allows happen. So, it's updated, it's consistent with what other districts do. And if you're right, the table directive can wait if it is the prerogative, but if you see ah You can look at CBSA and there are examples of policies and administration administrative regulations.

018I didn't see nothing that would raise a red flag. And obviously it's for the board of directors. Let him decide, but it's very consistent with what's out there. I believe that your additional question, Mrs. Ugarte and the response of Mr. Pong that existed before, but in a different department, But that makes me feel more like, ah, I feel more comfortable, but I don't see anything that We'll have to wait, but One very important aspect is that the The public deserves a chance. That's why We say this in the first and second hearings, I don't see any. Ah, error in waiting for the second one species, especially how much the last month's politics when published and that it was available and still online because although the We removed many changes from the month past, No, there

019were no changes. I can say where there were changes. The page 204 in politics. Yes. Ah, It was not in the August 13 version. Now it says the cost of food, which is not It's a bad thing. The cost should be reimbursed based on expenses documented, in ah receipts of writings. It's a good thing, but yes, there are changes. Uh, I think that's the only one. And the another one says eh the 3350, page 3 of C. Now he says that This has to be authorized previously by the superintendent or designee Or then it changed. No, I'm going to request the motion and I'll "I second," says Mr. Size. Secretary, I already voted for them. Ramirez Dominguez, not all of me. Dominguez Cervantes, not only for that reason that I just explained to you. Tamayo,

020Hugarte yo. The motion passes 32. Thank you, Mr. Pearl. Uh, the first and second reading for politics 34, Mr. Pon. Thank you so much. Once again we have review and have the approval potential of policy 3400 and this already It exists, where we are requesting a change from 5000 to 50,000 and we are adding new requirements. These are our contracts and this policy was updated. It gives us flexibility of capitalizing. We are proposing to increase this because There are so many items that cost more than $5,000 And we have a lot to do. to take into account, but we still have our inventory process. So, when we We increased it in our inventory, but also when it has to be removed, Well, it has to be removed. So, Can you explain what we just discussed?

021to speak with Mr. Pon regarding To this? Yes. And the idea of ​​increasing it from 5000 to 50. And Mr. Pong explained that because the new way in which the new system accounting is, we have flexibility in how we can get rid of of articles. For example, the contract with the copiers. We have so many copiers in the district and it would be more than $50,000. We had We'll have to depreciate that. So we are focusing in the articles, but we would still have inventoried everything else. Initially We thought we could remove it from the inventory over $50,000, but Mr. Pon He explained, "Yes, it's still in the inventory, we still have this accounted for, but for purposes of report, then we could go as far as $50,000. And this is efficient, right? He does

022it so that we don't have to stop. Any other questions from the table? directive or comment? I I agree with you, sir. Tamayo. My concern is that we have so many items, both inventory, which are 5,000 or more or less. So, how are we going to do it? The Inventories are done once a year. Our department also technology It has tablet management systems and computers. These are items between $500 and $1,500. I don't understand why it was important Include it, because it wasn't before. It's important to include it because now it's not so important. Those are some of my notes. And another question, Dr. Reyes, is it It is correct to assume that CBSD did not have a one manages one policy? No, we do have it. I was at that pre-show. where we had

023the 5000 and then it What are we doing? We are dividing. How do we draw a line if it's a update in quantity. This is how we will be monitoring the depreciation of the items. So, We are increasing the amount. However, what we were The discussion is about the current inventory It stays the same. We are maintaining the inventory. It's like There are two different things. One is for For accounting purposes, it is a depreciation process for processes of Ah, accounting, but the one for management is uh of Articles of objects, it's something, uh, of object handling, It's inventory control. This is something what are we doing here locally or It's because it's an application that we are wearing. This is a recommendation from our auditor. because the districts are in the process to update

024this policy because it is It's an old policy. What me What I mean is that this is where we would have What to expect, where we should have been started. Auditor's recommendation would have saved agony. Okay. So, in that policy there is a section there And there is nothing. Let me see. Physical impact. Prosecutor, I'm sorry. No, physical. There is no fiscal impact. It's accounting. and under page one of three, control internal, uh, fraud prevention, that first page, There's nothing beneath that. or that does not apply or none something I can insert. a so that it continues on page two. I I thought it was under business, no instruction. The first two lines are the title and then comes the continuation. Okay, this appeared. Yes, I pay attention. I pay close attention. Thank you. I

025ask for the approval of 14B. I second that. Secretary, please call the boat. Ramírez Domínguez. I, I Tamayo, Ugarte, me. The motion passes on the first and second possible reading possible adoption of the policy of the district's credit cards, Mr. Ponga. For this, something is being added, it is a new policy, and this has also been a recommendation, since we have been working with the county education office It is a additional subsection to 3314, which is the payment ah for materials and services and for services additional. when some people They don't take the order system. purchase, then for registrations, They don't take orders. purchase as a form of payment. Give me an example how this card would be used credit again for travel, flights. hotels, registrations. We've had emergency cases where we say that a

026school is going to a trip and for some reason the place didn't He let them in because they don't allow it. purchase order, then they don't let them. enter without a deposit or payment and The school has to use the card of credit. This is a good example. We've had credit cards for a long time. On page 1 of two, 1. Two, the third paragraph, perhaps the third line where it says procedures for monitoring the use of credit cards. I would have liked to have it, I don't know if it would be as like a administrative regulation. I think this is a process, right? But he could be good and know what they are. the parameters, what are the expectations, if it's going to be more than so many dollars, or I think he needs

027to have more description. I believe my only Reservation means not having those items identified. Yes. Um, each card has a limit, you know. whether in the transaction or on the card general. And we have a manual. that we can include and update if You want something extra. I would like See it. Ah, I'm going to try it, but I I'd like to see a little more information about that. I am requesting approval. I have a question first. You mentioned that these cards have been used. Uh, I think this goes with what he's saying Mrs. Dominguez Cervantes. that's how What are the guidelines, what is the There are limits, as you said. But can you give me an example of what it is? the limit for a school transaction. I want to make sure again. You

028have to be responsible, fiscally responsible And I like the idea, but I would like to have a little bit of reference. Mr. Pon additionally to the answer. You can add the reconciliation process that what is needed for this to happen. Excuse me, give me a minute. I have a question. How many people Do they have a credit card, more or less? Each director has one, and all of them directors too. They know the limits and how to maintain them. to reconcile. It's only for travel or things like that. emergency. Uh uh the director and the director work or the director works with the secretary and they have to review all the transactions. And if there is What is an unapproved expense? what happens? Well, the employee has to pay. If they have an unapproved expense,

029what happens When do they reconcile? They They have to add up, uh, the, they have to send the account number to which It's going to load. Please, secretary, call the votes. Ramírez Domínguez, Tolsten, me, me Domínguez Cervantes, me. Hey, Yeah, Yes, we'll send it to him. I'll pee on you. Communications to the board of directors.

In AACB name, I want to give the Thank you for considering the adoption of the resolution today to proclaim October 12 to 18 as the week of the administrators in our district. This recognition It is truly very significant because it is in the capacities in which the members serve, our members They serve every day. We are leaders of instruction, guiding, teaching, learning and continually improving, but we can also put band-aids on the knees or we can offer, oh well to clean his nose and

034also we are ensuring calm the students' tears. These we see those moments as ordinary, But together they capture the heart of it who wants to be a school leader. Our members work to do it that is needed for schools be a positive place to grow and learn.

They don't do anything More are complying with the documents On paper, they have, ah, they are, ah guiding

035through the practices for to be able to reach the utilization student while they are while They have the required development. And I'm also giving them work as approach to leadership that the work that the district does with the leaders. One of The most powerful aspect of this is the so that We do all branches of our jobs create lines in professional development, professional reading and also participation of parents and family. They assure that what we do as leaders They connect directly with what It happens in the classroom and also with families at home. And in my school, for example, our goal of telab intentionally had a goal of involving families in our goal, ah, in a profound way in the recent years. And using our new ambassador for parents through the program, we have one

036of the best participations in coffee with the director. We recently talked about school's approach to the math at home. We learned from everyone the games they can play with dice and That came from that collaboration with our Father ambassador and bring your fathers to the mathematics goal. It was very exciting because it brings the power of TAB plan and combines the power of ambassador program for parents and this is strengthening the connection school, the home we all want and also in the recognition of administrators. The week of recognition is an opportunity to stop and honor the members who are extremely committed. They're not just running schools, but they are also shaping the future.

In August On August 8, 2024, we met with the Hey, the police with staff. We did recommendations such as the safety of the children who are walking to Hellcrest and other schools in the area can be improve. Nothing was done. My husband and I and other

039Crusaders are very worried about the lack from a security patrol. Our son Ernesto did it and then He went to the academy and now he's a retired officer. This is very important in San Isidro. I put the patrols in place, The children love being at work with the police. There is a deeper problem here. The parents Oh, well, they've insulted the children and the adults who are helping them. So that's why they don't want to be members of this patrol. They are traumatized. I am recommending a book by Dr. Pasel Van which is called The Body maintains scores. It means that Traumas at this age can go hand in hand with their emotional and social development. That's wrong. This father who insulted the child. That's wrong. And I would like to see Namely, Dr. Reyes,

040what has been done To help? Has counseling been given to The school patrol? I would like to see this. Thank you. And I am making an amendment. The agenda item was marked incorrectly.

I know there are some schools that are already ready, but my The understanding is that there will be 50 schools. So please, if you can prioritize with this situation we are experiencing today. Thank you, Noel Cravens. Good

041evening everyone. Uh, I just want to answer a Comment from the table at the last meeting that the joints last a long time and that They cost money. I, as an interested party It is very important to understand what it is that What is being improved and what is being denied? And I also think that, uh, we need to have transparency, something that has been very big. I propose, I have a solution and probably before approving or denying A motion must be explained to the public and must be identified potential questions to have the answers. This prevents the one who are having a conversation or discussion among the members. Other The article is about the budget. The The board has considered reorganize leadership roles and have and reduce administrative costs. if what specific changes have

042been explored or implemented and specifically if the CO position or the facility director of facilities was a new position that was Created last year, it is necessarily to have this position. Thank you, Rachel Tihan. Good evening, members of the panel directive. My name is Rachel Tihan And I teach at Wolf School Canyon. The Wolf Canyon staff and the Families are losing confidence in our administration. This is the Second year and nothing has changed. First leadership with nearly 1000 students and three special education classes. W Canyon requires leadership and instead of continue making the same mistakes, We haven't improved. The parents and the Teachers are wondering who is leading. Second, student behavior. Our general education classes They look like special education classes. This cannot continue. Extreme behaviors are real affecting all grade levels. Taking staff off

043their duties, ah, closing the offices and This is leading to multiple injuries in students. The students ah They need a suitable location and support. And now this year we have another one. The students have 31 students in fifth and sixth, and they are being added students to integrate without support. This is not access equitable access to education And the truth overwhelms the teachers. Short changes, students and viola the contract as well. For 2 years it has lack of leadership. And the repeated violations of contract. Teachers are losing faith, the Parents are losing confidence and Students are paying the price.

Every year we have a conference to raise funds for our scholarships, for every high school kid uh of Sweet Water preparatory school. And the Participants attend the conference. Before the pandemic we had approximately more than 300 participants and we could also give scholarships to

045sixth grade students eh for Chula Vista, for National City and for Southp. And Chula Vista always had the most participants during and after the pandemic. Ah, only We were able to raise money to put money together for high school students. He Last year other districts attended even San Diego State and we We wanted to reinstate this scholarship for the primary schools, but again We need your assistance, we need your help. Ah, the Chulavista district has always participated in this event and We hope you send participants from across the school and We hope you can donate, please. interpreters and translators.

I hope you can attend. Schools, coordinators for Professionals, thank you for your time. and I was asking if I could deliver some flyers. Thank you. oral presentations and Miguel, We already have the update for district health and safety, sir Rosemary. Thank you, Superintendent Dr. Reyes, members of the board of directors. a brief update, So I would like to make sure that Let's address this issue about the CPR classes and what

047is The district is collaborating with the Radi Children in one of their projects called Project Barom. It is a volunteer project of volunteering and we are aligning it with security, our school safety plan. We are following up on this. in school buildings. I'm here to see how it's used. When we checked with the Hospital Radiers Hospital, they present to us, We're very excited to bring that project and we'll be sharing more information. The Raptor visitor system. Uh, everyone who has seen the schools, the district prioritizes security. We're not going to guarantee it. What is difficult is when there are school events where there is more than one person in our facilities. We are updating our system where they can go to scan their phone in the QR code that appears in the screen and receive

048a QR code from lap. Yes, it is registered in the Raptor system. Instead of this Hey Go through the process, you can put your information and identification number uh in advance. So that's to... speed that up process. So now they can scan, uh before going to the team. That too works especially for our board of directors. Once they have registered QR code that is returned to them, They can click on the button from the iPad. They click on the button, The QR code appears and they can go Show your badge and enter the staff. So it's going to be faster for our parents and members of the community to visit the schools and At the same time, this guarantees security and with our system. And that would be all. my part. We don't have these

049speakers, they have questions or inquiries. The the the uh the Raptor system implies which involves having our license drive and I did share with Dr. Reyes in the last months before AD 495 which is It's a little scary. There is a proposal, one and no, but What are we going to do to protect our children of the people who They can enter with a form and not provide your identification, nor not even have parental permission, neither a power of attorney nor anything notarized and that person can take it, says a your son, we have to be, uh, we have that anticipate. Uh, this has been The state has been working on the Assembly and he went from the House to the Senate and I have been sharing this concern in recent months. What's the point

050of Raptor? Yeah Anyone can enter and take his son away. So I would like it to be a proactive manner Or legal, Dr. Reyes informed me that most parents, the majority, because apparently not all They have a contact card in emergency case. Some parents don't They are promoting that information, so that anyone who enters and You can take your son, uh, well, uh defeats the purpose and I would like to have a policy that one policy that does not happen. The intention was For others, it was because there were concerns. that a student may not have one of its parents due to the issues of migration, but but That can't be used. I would like us to start work and anticipate it because we're working very, very hard hard in in in that system And

051I can go and take anyone. child. Dr. Reyes. We consulted If that happens, I don't see how the district can... eh break eh break the law. No no I'm saying it's not going to happen, that because it does become a law like board of directors. We cannot as a member of the board, as an individual, I I'm going to break the law and I'm not going to allow a child to go with someone who is not, does not appear in the contact information. I understand, eh This Mrs. Dominguez, It hasn't passed through the legislation. Uh, it's not an item on the agenda. I understand that, uh, regarding his security concerns, I know the details and yes, I ask them to everyone who does a search and that It started as something good, but now No,

052please consult anyone who be listening and let them hear your voice. SW, we can see it, we can analyze it bill. If that does happen, we need to see Once that happens, the question is, when and how it will be put into practice the details, so I'm going to So we're going to move this one to work. with our legal team. Hey, Thank you very much because I asked this a while ago. months and someone from our department was going This is being aware of these things. Thank you. I have a question about new application. Uh, the QR code will be provided to the parents, so they can, uh, uh, this They can enter before arriving at the school. We'll review it what they saw in the presentation and in the The steering wheel will

053be in English and in Spanish and will provide a code QR. They will be able to they are going to Then they will be able to send the QR code through that application. Yes, yes, I know someone who He already registered and worked And it was very quick, very easy. Thus the Ahed is responsible for him, he showed me and I can log in because sometimes I can't, but I can enter Like 10 seconds, so it's going to be a large system. Any other questions? Subject 9B, presentation about the participation plan Family 2025-2026. Thank you, member. Me cheer up ah ask Giovana Castro, director of communications, uh, that presents the plan developed during the summer for this school year and for eh years coming, especially for this cycle school 20 25 26 for participation familiar

054and how are we going to attract more parents to that we collaborate with them, but to ensure that it is a collaboration authentic among the district, the schools and parents. So I'll pass the microphone to the lady here. Castro. Thank you, Dr. Reyes. Hello good nights, board members and leadership, one of our ambassador parents, Cristina Edena, and one of our directors, Dr. Canales of the High. They They'll be performing tonight and We also have our supervisor of Mayela Cuturier communications that is here with me too to support me. So Thank you very much. So tonight you're going to hear a pressure on how the district of primary schools is strengthening participate in that through the plan of Family partition 20 25 2026. The year The district made an effort in the past collaborative to strengthen

055the family participation through a a variety of initiatives guided by the five of the five goals in the LCAP and more the institute. Uh, the purpose was to build bridges between the district, the Families, and although we are making progress, the Results show that there are still area for improvement. The district included 13 workshops. The average attendance was 13 participants. The workshop with the highest attendance was the workshop on neurodiversity by Brain San Diego's balance, which attracted 27 assistance. Although the district is the district largest primary school California sixth grade ticket with thousands of families, the assistance was less than 1% of the population of the of our family population. If four sessions had zero assistance, One was cancelled due to the border fires. Attendance at these workshops is a indicator that the district needs

056rethink how to attract families in a positive way. Although the Participation was therefore modest given the size of our district. Two fathers were recognized as, uh, as academic parents, by attend eight or more sessions per year past. It is important to mention that the accidents, huh, that's how they were, huh participants who had come previously. Last year the district launched series learning tool and a tool workshops designed for schools for the essential effect of the committees schoolchildren. A total of six workshops were presented at four campuses schoolchildren last year. Despite the relevance of these topics, uh the requirement of those presentations in schools it was low and I don't know, I don't know aligned with the needs of our schools. In addition to those initiatives, the district also launched our eh expo annual community at

057the beginning of the year, where hundreds of families participated for the start of the new cycle school. We also launched our first station experience, uh uh a excursion in which 47 parents participated, They visited the health station to to experience it firsthand opportunities that are provided to their children third and fourth grade. So you're going to hear the testimony of our parents who participated last year past with us. Although we strive to increase the connection between the school and the home, uh the initiatives uh of childbirth family members did not comply with the district expectations And we saw the need to change the focus on school campuses at the same time as the number one goal, to increase the leadership participation of parents. Goal two is to strengthen the Two-way communication and the goal number

058three empower the people on July 26 to begin the new school year. Hundreds of families attended Ah, to obtain, uh, district resources and from the community, free food and interactive activities for your children. We're excited to be planning... coming months for one of our the most important initiatives that are exploration stations. Now a Mrs. Edena's testimony about her experience at the station eh of experience or exploration the year past uh about these excursions I knew that and talk with other parents because we're talking about that our children tell us about these excursions and I had no idea of the element of the type of development, right?, of that bridge between their personalities uh and the professional careers. So it was really cool to go to that excursion. I graduated from elementary school Cook, But I

059remember going to the center of it center to train, so that was really cool experience and see it in greater depth. Thank you so much. Thank you, Mrs. Jerena. for measure number two to collaborate with organizations external to offer It's a series of five workshops. This year we have collaborated with Brain San Diego's balance sheet to offer, eh workshops in the district at different hours to motivate participation, huh childcare, services of interpretation, our first workshop in operation executive on August 21, where we had 29 attendees, the highest attendance ever since we started that initiative. Our second workshop will be held in capped on Thursday, October 30th in the district office. We agreed on the We hope to see more families attend. Measure number three focuses on eh increase access to services interpretation and translation for

060guarantee participation and equitable understanding. And recently We added another team member to translation, So we have three performers, translators, measure number four, establish uh to implement a program of Ambassador parents. Applications opened on the 6th June and closed on July 25. This The opportunity was publicized throughout the schools, on social media, website web, in newsletters, emails electronics. One of the parents or guardians was elected in each school in collaboration with the director of the school and I am pleased to announce that We have an ambassador father for each staff. Hey, and we also have some parents ambassadors who represent in the charter schools. The ambassador parents had their first meeting on August 7th at the district office, where they learned about their role and responsibilities as Ambassador parents. They listened to a presentation by Jessica

061Morales, superintendent attached and and performed a variety of of They participated with different eh representatives of the departments, So you might ask, what is it that What do ambassador parents do? They attend quarterly meetings to promote programs and initiatives of district at their children's school, eh communicate with other schools, collaborate with district leadership and other parent leaders and identify and working towards goals to increase familiar appearance at their school children and collaborate with the director of the school. The communications office has a commitment to support the Ambassador parents among the boards Hey through resources and tools. Now I'd like to invent an invitation to the Mrs. Hena, so that she can tell us about experience as a parent ambassador. Good night again. My My name is Cristan Jerena, I am a father Sunis Elementary ambassador.

062First I want to mention that this paper... It gives the opportunity to work with district leaders, the director, the families of Sanide to determine eh where the school could benefit from more after analyzing the attendance of parents in certain meetings. That was which led me to develop this goal, which is to increase the attendance of the parents at ILAC meetings. I am also working with others parents to learn what incentives so that they can attend events schoolchildren. So thank you. Thank you very much, Mrs. Hena. Finally, as part of goal number One, the communications office is created a resource guide for parents in English and Spanish, which has been shared with the teams and has been added to our website. Our second goal is increases communication with the families, a communication bidirectional. We've done uh

063significant updates, including a new website for the schools and the district, uh streamline the messaging system and also the launch of the new app of district. These tools guarantee that families receive information from in an accessible and relevant way. This school year is a year of transition and we are excited to see the strengthening the tools of district and that they be put into practice in all the schools. Our third goal, empower directors to increase family participation in your school staff. To support this Meta, the communications office created and distributed a resource guide for family partition that includes uh this suppliers of uh of workshops free and paid that they can program to bring their schools. eh programs for positive belief of the children of San County Diego and much more. Information about workshops, including

064costs and contact information. This is this accessible. The Appearance Resource Guide family also includes the information from the CBS University workshops, so as well as other resources. The office of communication remains committed to expand those resources and participate eh actively to collaborate with others organizations to bring this workshops and services to our community. For measure number two We have put this presentation on. uh that directors can use during their coffee meetings with the director that you believe includes the creation of effective learning environments in the home, family gathering, conferences from parents and teachers, and prepare for exams and also rigor academic for all. And finally, number three, as As you heard earlier, the program of Ambassador Parents works with the school principals to create goals to increase the occurrence family member at their school. The

065parents Ambassadors are working, they are going to be working on this goal throughout of this school year and they will have strategies to put it into practical, to increase. Now I would like to invite one of Our directors, Dr. Canales, from Los Altos Elementary, to share How is the Highlands increasing? participation in his in his of his school through the Parents program ambassadors. Good night. I'm excited uh share the progress we have made in the Highlands in the strengthening of family partitioning through our ambassador parent program. From the First meeting, the parents returned very happy, ready for and they immediately began to devise How to create a partitioning goal family and together we created a goal to multiply by two assistance of families to our family academic nights. It was truly inspiring. creativity and the

066how they assumed responsibility also thought about creating a program for encourage. Families can get a ticket eh golden, eh, so that their children can this go to the front of the line also at festivals. We are currently planning our family math night and one of His initiatives are that the esgandes They create a promotional video inviting people to the families to attend. that collaboration It wouldn't have been possible, not only eh It involves parents, but also empowers our students to Take part, assume a part, and motivate your to family participation. I'm very moved, I'm really waiting for... this collaboration to continue the collaboration, uh with our communities, the participation and the press of the students. So thank you very much for support for our students and families and our parent program ambassadors. Thank you very

067much, doctor Channels. In conclusion, the familial appearance in the elementary school district of Chuela Vista is a collaboration shared in the district and in our 50 schools. But beyond work From the communications office, he invites families to participate in district advisory committees like the budget committee or welfare, the APT, PTO, uh safety committees school and volunteer parents. Also We have community schools, a program of early education as and special education committees. Wait that the school district of Schools Primaries is committed to strengthen family pressure for the school year 2020, 2025, 2026 and in years future. And we await collaborate with families to expand opportunities and promote connections significant. Thank you very much for your support in these efforts. Thank you so much. No, we don't have any speakers. comments or questions. Thank you so much

068for their presentation to all parents and to our director who are here. Many thanks to our interpreters and translators. I know they're doing a great job. So I have a question. You mentioned I witnessed that last year The workshops were, uh, they weren't very well assisted and I went to I was one in one of the workshops. We have a number of how many people attended the workshops in the schools. I don't have those numbers, but we do have workshops in the I have the registration sheets for the schools. And I can provide that information. later to, to, uh, well, to see where We started and where we're going. And also I attended the Brain Ball workshop, it was very interactive, But in the end, but hurry for resources. Because creating an email some resources

069of some things that that they offer that they have to pay as a parent. I never want to feel no. I want to feel like I have to pay for more resources. So, maybe we should see that email. Then for Let's see if we can talk to Brain Balance. I don't want parents to feel that that they feel they don't have money to to pay for a certain resource. We are here to empower them and for the experiences on the excursion for parents. This year We're going to make more than one. This year We're going on an excursion, but We're going to visit two stations. They will be for student families fifth grade. We are working with our innovation department for Identify the date, but it will be more ahead in the school year and

070it will be one parent per school. He's going to be a father by school. Unfortunately, we have a limited number of places at the stations of experience or exploration. Our students are there when uh The parents are coming to visit, so the Parents can see the students in action, learning in action. Are parents ambassadors or will they be Other parents? It will be open for other parents. I'm going to work in collaboration with the directors to identify parents who can participate this year. Very good. I really liked the idea of ​​the ticket golden. It was wonderful. That's because, father. But But we can have these ideas, uh, that, that, that collect those ideas and you can share in the quarterly meetings and to see which ones are the best ideas and to apply them because

071we want Empowering our parents is the most important thing that we can. And I think that would be all. Thank you so much. Some comments. You do an excellent job, I've heard it. said before, Because, I tell Dr. Reyes that then a lot of information about the Instagram communications office, in Facebook is great, everything it does They do, and all those parents... ambassadors. Personally, sometimes it's easier to go to Schools as parents, so it would be perhaps If so, how can we participate? How? how to involve parents in those classes or workshops, But again, you have done a Excellent work. I visited one of the stations of exploration and I have the same feeling from seeing all the students in their equipment. in their interests, what course will they take. Very happy that the parents

072have being exposed to this because they are things that we won't be able to see as parents and the Students aren't going to share much with us, right? So So I'm doing these things now. disseminate this communication And this is the idea of ​​the golden ticket. A suggestion. We can, how about the parking lot? This ticket is for going in front of the traffic line. That's excellent. job. Thank you. I have some comments too. I've heard good things about Brain Balls, Brainlandes' workshop. One of the parents He shared information. How much do we How much does it cost for our workshops? was approximately 10,000 in total, but I can provide the total cost in the update on the information to the board of directors. It was approximately $200 in total. and the parents' idea for

073the program ambassador parents, But no, I don't know. But they did have a team of one group of ambassador parents, Why do we limit it to one ambassador per school? We limited it to one ambassador per or a school this year to really working with our ambassador parents and develop capacity and leadership. Yeah Yes, if we open it to several parents, it will speak. per school campus, Well, I would take away his job from it. individually, individually, But next school year we're going to expand this program. So there's going to be a "because we want to" We want to create a network of parents ambassadors, increase the pressure family so they can continue eh continue to be involved. So cycle There is only one ambassador parent at the school. by school, but in five five

074but in In five years there will be five ambassador parents per school site. So so he didn't allow fifth grade parents and sixth grade. So, for example, the parents Ambassadors, the requests are... open at the district level, but that's what What am I saying? She's just curious what the... reason that perhaps it would be something that they might consider expanding Regarding excursions. Can take several excursions so that others parents can know the great work that innovation centers are doing and what their children are doing. Regarding the information, we don't have it. data on family history or the growth based We have information from our survey. The cup. We have information from Hanover, We conducted a survey of the office of communications at the beginning of the cycle school, at the end of the cycle we

075have information about that. We also have We have record sheets for everyone our workshops and we are giving tracking how many parents and members of The community attended. And I think what we heard again, I mentioned this a few months ago. Yeah, I like that Jessica's member has it mentioned, that those workshops or meetings that take place where the parents, because it's perhaps easier to that they walk or that they drive It's a bit of a trek to get to the workshop. What are your thoughts? is part of our goal, our our guide to empowering the parents and their assistance and we have provided a guide to all the directors based on the needs of your eh school community. eh offer workshops, I have shown interest in the presentation of Executive function by Brain Balance,

076so I'm going to make that easier. Our priority is to give those opportunities, and services, and support for our directors who can use and program in their schools. It the directors must schedule the workshop based on the needs of the school community, For example, Brain Balance, because it would be great starting from the retransmission of the parents because they really enjoyed it. Where would we get the money to pay for it? Or the district would pay for it, or would each school pay for it? I would pay. I'll defer that question to Mark Pong like any activity or any school assembly or workshop. School facilities have the ones They're free, they're free, but if there's a cost. For example, tonight they are going to vote in some activities like BMX. which do come at a

077cost to the team, So it would be the same, and that they come of the funds per team. Again, it's no different from any other another school activity, family partitioning, But it's part of Alcap's plan. No ought No, I don't know how. Leave me alone. The department's job is to create in this particular case the opportunity service It has a list of different types of workshops. Some, some don't have cost, some have a cost reasonable, So, the way we approved, that you approve of different providers, some are free, for For example, our the San Diego Space Museum, We have free exemptions to the museum of spatial, but others come with a cost, but it depends on the director's. The director is He is the ambassador for his school. Thus with based on the needs of

078your school, can say this activity would benefit to our school and based on that choose to choose one of those activities And if he doesn't come, there's no cost, right? It has a cost. But if there is a cost, then they will pay it. They would pay for the staff. There is a process of school campuses when when they do activities. I had a different view. Mrs. Giovana, but For example, this director is Working on their laptops, they never stop. Rosy and the teachers. and we're giving him another task And that's all, just so you know, for the... board of directors that I remember All directors have funds from title one. Those funds are part of that they can manage, is part of their job, It's part of those funds, it's the birth. familiar. I

079understand, I just had another perspective. I am very involved with the community and in the school almost all the days of working with the directors and the parents and members of the community to be able to share all that information, which is what we are about doing, the resources, the services. So you'll see me on the teams, but I am working closely with the squads to do more than form of The services we offer have been disseminated to the parents. I'm so glad to see it watching that show grow up. I want to begin by thanking you because I have seen two other people lead the family birth. This position is the first time that we see a real plan. Wanna facilitate it by developing or preparing that plan and put it into practice what

080we are doing for the families and linking parents. in the short time we asked that we will help with this. I've only seen one significant growth, I not only see his work, but also how do schools benefit from their leadership on this issue. This very I'm happy with the plan they've made. prepared and with the team that is developed, the novel ideas. I'm very excited about how we're doing how it will be put into practice observers. We definitely have to See other resources. we can bring, we want bring more resources and that's where our community schools They could help us. Sorry, I beat you to it. So that's the collaboration, right? What will I be looking for? How can we tie or link the schools, school resources community. Uh, I'm very happy, very grateful and

081looking forward to the happy team that they are developing. I'm I'm really excited about those ideas, So thank you. It's not my turn. Very good. This me uh it reminded me it made me remember when I first met you and You gave me the office plan communication. So thank you. I appreciate this plan and I see I see it, I'm seeing it, and that's what it is. We run community schools. We are empowering parents and schools and communities. Uh, Father Ambassador is spreading the joy, empowerment Uh, this is the message of celebrating our school, to visit it and to make that and to link others parents through this ambassador father and working with the directors and the schools. That will strengthen the school community. And I'm very happy, very excited because because she is happening

082in schools that we don't They are only community schools, It's about parents having a voice, and that participation so that they can really see what's happening in schools of their children and can spread the accurate information about what is passing through their children's schools, because very good things are happening in our facilities. Thank you very much for This presentation. I'm so excited, so happy to that we have the information as a starting point departure and see how much we grow and it remained Looking forward to visiting and seeing it What's happening? Thank you so much. This, you should have made Mayela would interpret. Wanna I want to approve the agenda with flexibility because if we really have We have that I would like move the matter 13a before taking and then return the consent so

083that so we can do it all at once, that way that we can move to 13a. I'm here the approval of the renewal of superintendent's contract, Dr. Kings. And copies of the contract are available. Here, if anyone wants to consult them. Mr. Romero, Good afternoon, Dr. Reyes, table, members of the board, It is the district's obligation annually to present the superintendent's contracts and They assist the superintendent. that that includes the annual salary to be approved. This contract reflects what we have done in the past. There are a few things we want to clarify. There is a numbering error, a number that was duplicated, that was already corrected, but we also made a small change about no no the no of the amount for the description of the travel expenses for now includes all the elements

084that are include in not only the car payment, the mileage, insurance, but we also made sure that we adjusted one of the sections that I was talking about organizations professionals that they have an obligation to be part of it, but up to four organizations professionals. The goal of this It's as if, according to the tests of districts are changing, the the superintendent can participate in those organizations that represent the table directive and the district in the manner We make sure that there are more generals to provide for the survivor professional integrity and salary, benefits, like a life insurance policy, everything it remains the same and we submitted it for approval by on the board of directors for the renewal of the contract Dr. Reyes. There are no speakers on this issue. questions or comments from

085the table directive. Yeah, First of all, literally We provide to the public in this copy to say that there are no speakers. We can make comments because I know that the only thing, the only thing that is can if people have an interest They can fill out a card, They can come to the department of human resources to consult the but We just need to publish the notice of that we are doing this. I feel that there is not enough time to that the community reads and has questions, But I do have questions. First of all, I feel it was very interesting As I read the contract, there are three paragraphs that speak on the table, how we establish programs, what we do policies And I don't understand why. uh, because if that training is

086in the contract, if we're talking about the superintendent's contract. That was me He caught me off guard. is it legally binding if so We agreed on this. That's one of my questions, and the other one... about travel allowances for car expenses And that can be down below. description of the superintendent and no, you are not required to provide any type of documentation. Why, why that? because it is a fund. There is a background or something that is a certain amount of money to pay the bills. It's a fixed amount and covers mileage, different things. So it's very different from an expense that, For example, a meal or a food when we travel, when we go to lunch, you brought a receipt, If I paid with cash with a credit card, So you have to reconcile

087that. It's a fixed amount. and for the four organizations professionals, If I heard correctly, from Mr. Romero, For some reason I forgot his name, sorry. These professional organizations would be something the board of directors Would you recommend or would you bring those for us? organizations or how or how it works. For example, an organization professional could be at There are many personal organizations that are directly related to the education, educational leadership, That's why it's a professional organization. but it is not It's not like United football and I understand, I understand that it has to be relates to leadership professional, for example. We've done a lot of work with the house. And besides, they're good collaborators. with us, is one of the organizations to which to which I belong. In fact, it is an organization that

088is at the table, eh You weren't here yet, but the The rest of the board voted for most of our directors and cabinet directors were part of it. I wasn't on that list. because Yes, so they are organizations professionals and four are enough for the district benefit. I would like to have more, but it depends on you. I just want to know, yes, why For example, if I want another one, a fifth, I would have to bring it to the table to be voted, But if I want to participate in one Fifth, which I think would be... utility, uh you would have to approve it Again, as we said, cows on vacation and that hasn't changed, no nothing has changed, nothing changed the expenses or travel allowances with regard to insurance, benefit, salary, everything remains

089the same. It The last one is a 3-year contract, but We meet every year to review it, but just in case it has to be for some reason changed. For example, It's always 3 years, But you can, But we can meet and we can extend it to 4 years. The time, the deadline can be changed in the renovation. We want to increase travel allowances or the expenses for the car. The next two years would have already has been voted. So the next time we meet, the California code of California requires that the superintendent, the person superintendent for transparency reasons, So we bring it in annually because it's part of the education code. I'm going to read my notes. I'm glad that our legal representative is here. There are some concerns. I have been informed that

090the CBSD did not include the contract as part of the agenda. [Music] That which is not transparent, but they have explained. Reading my notes. Mr. Romero explained the requirement of this to set the salary and each year I had that as a question. the contract that Araceli gave me. Initially, they told me there wasn't one. changes, member Jessica. We reviewed the agenda And I reviewed the contract and if there are any changes which includes the entire section. I understand that, a change in it 3.5 on page 2 and was redefined in element 2.6, but the salary It is significantly more. He's here to bring the previous contract, Yes, we are approving it. I wanted to see the changes, but if there is a change significant in his salary, but it was explained that which has

091to do with the union for teachers, that the regonization, the talks and became a me to clause. So I also think that I don't believe for be recorded, I don't think the superintendent's salary should be linked to the union of the teachers. They are two different categories, different responsibilities and the current contract that we are in the The one we are working on was approved. I checked the meeting agenda. previous minutes and the recordings May 22, 2024 that the The board of directors approved the contract of super which is to come into effect on the first of June 2024 to May 31, 2027. The contract the one who was provided to me declared which was eh came into effect from the May 23, not June 1, 2024 as approved until the 30th June 2027, not

092May 3127 which was approved. That's a problem. We approved different deadlines and the The contract has different dates than the current contract. That's not what the board approved in May 22. Furthermore, the contract was signed on the 24th May 2024 and says that President Urgarte, Vice President Tamayo, who signed. I think there's a problem here because the member Tamayo was not the Vice President on May 24, 2024. Later, member César Fernández was the vice president during that time. I went to the organizing meeting of the December 2023 to make sure that It was correct. With the documents, I made copies of everything. Here are the dates I have mentioned, dates different from the current contract that we are working on. I made a copy of the one from May 2024 that Clearly César Fernández was

093the vice president, so that's a problem. There are rats, huh, something signed the date wrong, I honestly don't know, but But it was Mr. Fernandez who was president until December 2023 to 2024. So It seems that the current contract that our supervisor It may not be legitimate because the The dates are wrong, they are incorrect and that we need legal advice to correct and amend the current period and I ask that you not make me yours in that way conversation. So, Mr. President, if... wants to make a motion, a motion to that we postponed this issue in the agenda due to discrepancies And I have the documents, but I cannot explain the documents past, but what I can do, so I can comment on some points that you are mentioning. It First would be what

094is consulting previous contracts. Is a contract, but, but, uh, the matter of Today is the day to renew the contract and I assume it has the dates correct. No, no, they are not. That's why I wanted to know if we could postpone this matter. I cannot proceed. If we start from different dates that do not coincide with the previous contract, there shouldn't have been a gap. I believe in the renewal I think the dates are appropriate. And those errors have been corrected. Yeah There is a problem with a contract. We can consult the previous one and we can Let's see if something has to happen, huh? corrected as an amendment as to who signed the contracts previous, What's important, I think, so a court and regardless of who signed it the signature of President Hugard

095Part of it is in the contract. You're saying it should have been him. vice president at the time, but that the court would see is the intention to enter into a contract binding and not a typographical error. And no, and no And as for the dates, I'm worried. because the board approved a series of dates. I know that human error exists, But the dates are wrong, but I don't think so which invalidates the contract. I can definitely check it and if it is necessary to amend it, We can bring it up in the next meeting, but it does not invalidate. Or no, no, I don't think it's necessary to postpone. This is the contract renewal, But what we can do is So we have to complain about having the Correct amendment. Absolutely, especially if we

096go through the FMAT assessment, I don't think that would be something of concern for FMAT, but Obviously, Dr. Reyes wants that the dates should be corrected. And based on that, I think my colleagues can't go to a proceed to point B if not correct. What's the rush? the approval of your contract until the 2027? because we can't wait for the next month to make you want to correct everything and I would like to vote in consequence, But it is the prerogative of the board. Yeah, if it is a legal requirement to wait to move towards B. I would say no. It's something that can be done amend. The doctor, Mr. Romero He said, "Ah, that the paragraph, one of the..." paragraphs, uh, I had an error of numeration, But I appreciate that you're here to

097clarify Other salaries are also included. different because the contract was available in the morning. Mr. Pong, could you explain the salary and the elliptical, It's not like two different ones Hey steps If we approve the 3% increase this year. Yeah. similar to other employees of district, the experienced person receives a entry into the step each year and that came into effect in the teachers' negotiations, the latest Teacher negotiation is the cost of of It is a standard practice in the district and in the county. So everything survivor has This is a salary and most of most negotiates in his which also have Me2, So we have to We need to correct this. We've been doing this for several years. It's that Mitsu clause and it is in and it is with the agreement with CBE.

098That's Mitsu. Me too We have directors in that group. Now They have a union. That's how negotiations go. There is an increase. If he is an unrepresented employee. The table has proven that those unrepresented employees also They receive the same percentage. Increase, the same percentage. My question would be, I thought I was under the administrators, but it is not represented. we have represented. Then, I would receive the same increase of percentage that obtained the union of e teachers. Last year the board approved that 3%. Okay. So they voted and it was approved. So I was thinking that if I was Under administrators, the mitu should to be under the administrators. Yeah For example in the future there would be another increase and the table has the prerogative to say Yeah He receives the increase or

099not. Uh, but It's the board of directors, so we can Make an addition today and anywhere that contract can be amended. Correct? Thank you so much. Motion to approve it. Seconded. Secretary, can we call a vote. Dominguez. No, because it wasn't given to the public. Toxten. Yes. Dominguez. No, only because I want to. that the dates are corrected. Tamayo. Yes. Play you. Yes. The motion proceeds. 32. Thank you. Now this is a call to one, to one 10-minute break. We return to the 8:25. Okay. The concentration schedule. He consent calendar. The The following articles are under the consent calendar and They consider it an action. There won't be one. discussion in these articles, uh, unless the members of the table directive Ah, request that some items be discuss or remove from the calendar consent. Before

100approve, uh, they removed 9/11, It's no longer on the calendar. consent. 9/11, Sorry, uh, they removed it. 9/11. and that it's still there. Uh, they are bringing this up to talk about it, But I needed paper. So, before we approve the items that want to release 11CL, a description work 11D SU I. It can't be heard. No, but it's not you. It's there. Okay, then let me do this before I do it motion. Ramirez said 11C subsection L, a job description 11D, 11S and 11W. Tolen 11 CL and then HIS and Domínguez Cervantes 11, section C, subsection D, subsection K and subsection L. And then H, S, T And W. I have a motion to approve this agenda. Yes. Me, Secretary, please call the ballot. Ramírez Domínguez, me, Tolsten, me, Domínguez Cervantes, I, Tamayo, I,

101Hugarte, Yo. The motion passes again. Now before CL is CD, so Domínguez Cervantes 11 CDs. And if you can guide us in the correct page, page 4 of 11. Ah, the job description CL. Where is the description? SD. Hey, Mrs. Ramirez, you got her too, TRUE? Which page is it? Page 4, 4 of 11. What is the title? I have the operations officer, Chief Operations Officer. That's a job description. I see what you're saying. It's not the page. 4 of 23 of 23. No, I was just waiting. I don't want to interrupt. I want to know Why this position? It was changed. Which? the operations officer to allow the board of directors had a conversation and discussion. Instead of having conversation and the next board meeting, then Do it today, have the conversation if you

102Do you agree, and if so, do you approve? then we approved it. Now, what we are trying to do in a effort, How can we do these two things in a hand? Since we're looking at saving the budget, We are looking at the possibility of review the position of director of operations and make a senior director. A chief operating officer is much more higher than a director. Senior and also to see the position and see of this director of operations and the rest. So, doing this job is more than anything else. construction and convenience and at the same time save money. So, what you're saying, if I'm hearing fine, So it's something that will continue playing Mr. Pong. Yes, something has to be done about this. Someone It's to attract more people. We can have

103more people at these positions without that expectation. So, we're saying thank you. But no thanks. We already went through the process and we didn't send any recommendations to the board of directors because we don't believe that We have the right person for this position. Yes, because I remember that we hired a person to do this process. What you're saying is this Not a person, right? Ah, although this person was the finalist, It was decided that we weren't going to bring him. for future reference. Do we have anyone? No, we have someone. I have a question. You are attending to the one-on-one where This is being discussed. When was the last one time? Last month I had two deaths in my family, so I couldn't get there. I'm not, it's not a tone. I am doing

104a question. I'm still grieving And I don't appreciate that comment. Mrs. Tosten, this is the same one that you he asked her to withdraw to see if they can Give a little bit because we need it. if they can give us something. We have many projects of construction, then and the modernization of three schools by year. So, There will be three modernizations each year. And we have a long list of things. And the other is that in 2029, approximately 2029 we are having to open a new school in the south, in the southern area, south of Wolf Canyon. So, It takes a long time to get this, to to achieve this. And this is not a new position. Have Someone who is in this position, is Here, he's a temporary worker and he's there. AND

105Okay, to all the meetings. Domínguez Cervantes. Yes, similar to what they asked for previously. with respect to the director of communications. She is Giovana, TRUE? Yes. Okay. So, everything they crossed out here, Who's going to do that? As it says, assess, resources, Ah, developing opportunities to society. I hear some of the things that Giovan was saying during the family participation plan. That includes some of these things that she does. That's one of the things here. that she is doing. So, why? What are we removing? For example, where it says plan to meet meet with districts, objectives and communication resources. If you look further ahead in the description The work is almost like, oh, the comic strips are They are duplicates. It's been said in other words, but It's basically the same thing. So I didn't

106I see here the part about subsidies. Who's going to do it? What we are going to What we're going to do now is be doing Giovana attended, but basically The departments are the ones that, because For example, I know that Mr. Romero has made many of these and in his The department is the one that creates them and also Mrs. Cassy, But I don't want to remove them, uh... especially, these subsidies or consensuses. I think she can get into contact with someone. So there is a a communications specialist, TRUE? And the reason I'm asking is one of the tasks of the job that They are listed here, it seems that They are in a job that already exists, in a communications specialist. So who is doing it? Who's going to make some of these? things?

107Or is it something shared? Yes. Ah the communications specialist reports to the director of communications And it's not about deleting tasks, but they work. on the whole. So, for example, if There will be a filming of at least to one of those commercials that they They are filming different things that They're happening at a school, you know? The whole team is going to Giovana, yes, she is. She coordinates it, She is part of that. So It seems we are doubling the tasks, but the whole team is working. Some of the tasks are seen They're the same, but they work together. I think that's what I'm losing This is where she is supervising others individuals who are doing some of these functions. Yeah. Uh, I saw that they included the part here about family participation, But

108I really don't want it to be lost. when they are requesting grants. Yes, we can add it specifically. panel number six. Losing this would therefore be a very great loss. big and also the preparation part for emergency. Why is it being removed? Because he does that for the team. security. This was a job description old and now we have a team of security personnel in charge of this, but she is in charge of the emergency communications and that We have it here somewhere. Yes, I want to make sure it's there. We still have crisis management. I think that's what you're doing referring. Okay, I want to clarify this. shopping assistant. This is a new position, Mr. Pong. Can you share? It's a combination of two. There was a junior buyer. So, this is going to

109be divided between shopping and the wine cellar. The director is going to see both departments and the programmer. Ah, I also want to not classify if Is this a new position or is it eliminating another Mr. Pong. similar to the junior buyer, This is a replacement and it is consistent with the title of others. and the senior facilities director, maintenance and operations. Any combination It looks shiny and all. on the last page 23 out of 23, any combination of training or experience and also in engineering and management of construction. I don't know if this could be written another way. Yeah, I have to work with Mr. Rosemary. One is on the outside, the other is on the inside. working, for example, with the construction. And the other is someone who comes inside of the districts,

110but maybe It began many years ago and he has worked and has managed to climb the ranks. So I'm just saying no, we don't want to to say that we can have someone who sell that comes with a 20-year warranty an experience that could be something very good with all the experience, by For example, working with a developer. So it's a combination. So in that way We have the flexibility to see both. I have a question. Thank you, Dominguez Cervantes. Then it would be If it were within the district with those They are going to request a combination of certificates. Many of our professional organizations such as Cash and CASBO proved authorizations and ratings. Then some, like You know, it's people who are current and They're going to these training programs. and maybe they don't

111have a diploma, but they have certifications in These areas qualify them for the position. It simply expands our capacity to bring in a candidate, but still the district has the obligation to make sure those grades They meet the job description and that their tasks will be responsible for their tasks. So, this position It will be approved today. Ah, if it's approved, Yes, it will be published. Correct? Yeah. So today is the day to approve it if you all do. They want to, and in the second part there is another one item on the agenda where we are asking at the table directive consider hiring this company to help us recruit to the right person. So let's go have to change the article name to say C or to say se senior director and then we'll...

112post. Yes, Mr. Pong tomorrow will work with the company. This is for job descriptions, TRUE? So I'm CD because this was a description of work and the rest. I see that the Mrs. Dominguez Cervantes put the dry that I see the the people who were promoted. If there is one ask here, No? Page 7 of 11. What is the new name? If we approve a change to the description work. It was during promotions. She used to be the operator It's to help us transition out of that idea. And then CL eh Ramírez Domínguez. So, if you can begin, I was confused by the descriptions of job and Mrs. Tosten the same. Dominguez Cervantes, page 9, Authorable Incorporated, which will provide a variety of extracurricular activities for immerse students in a professional publishing experience of books

113in various school sites. My question again, as I have asked earlier, the activities that are given to a school. Which schools have these activities? One of the things we're waiting for In our update we have I've been putting descriptions of our contracts. By Why do we have so many? This is a program lead or program learning opportunities and it is a a magnificent opportunity for our students so they know what it takes uh publish a book. Then they give them ideas from the books and then the students write and They learn how to be authors and know what It refers to the publication and the cover. and the schools have already signed up for this. What we do in this program is that we identify schools that have a interest in this area, because these

114These classes are indicative of interests of the students and also programs balanced. So, we want increase this. Thank you. Any others in C? Because this is the final of C so we can make a motion. I am already requesting the motion for 11Corciones [Music] and stop the subsidies, the grant application, sorry. I second that. Secretary, please call the vote. Ramírez Domínguez. Tosten, yo, yo la emotion passes Let's go to 11 of Ramírez Domínguez. Before that nothing wanna, I thought this was a great idea. I I feel that supporting our administrators and recognizing them is something that It's to make our district a better place. place. It's a magnificent idea. My only ask here, When are we going to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month? I don't know if it's a week or because it's happening. I love

115celebrating administrators. It's not directly related to this. We can have this conversation with Dr. Reyes because Hispanic Month is now. Okay. I have a motion. Yes, I propose a motion. to test. I second that. Secretariat, can call the votes. Ramirez Dominguez, me. Tolsten, I. Dominguez Cervantes, me. Tamayo, me. Hugarte, me. The motion passes many people with that. Ramirez Dominguez. I want to explain, please. It's a correction. In the fiscal impact says 25,200 and it is 32,400. The fiscal impact for that It says 25,200, not 34,000. 32,400. I want to know why we're doing this This right now. Hey, just so you know, anyone here in the district, Uh, unless they have a contract that He handles, for example, the office of district to Sonicide and back they They charge for miles. So, with some positions

116that they handle a lot. So, Instead of acting like Sony here, like Sony to Fahari and then Kellock and back and have all the miles at the end of the month and enter the refund It's much easier. because sometimes they forget and take a lot of work And from an accounting perspective, it's easier to give it them a check in advance and someone who drives for business They can give you a refund. So, with this stipend This means that the staff administrative staff will have 300 per month or 3600 per year, although they didn't have to drive that much. Yes, it's a stipend. In other words, a fixed or regular payment. For example, they have the senior directors of leadership and learning that but basically it is Their job is to be in schools and

117be working with the directors. They are visiting the schools every days, they go from one school to another. So, I'm going to do this with you. I know that most of the They don't issue refunds because it takes too long. time And it's not fair to do that. What I am listening to what positions there are, positions that They use it a lot. I have worked in businesses where They have an app so you can go counting the miles. We have considered that so they don't have to do it because Google and see which path I took. They can create an application that indicates which is the mileage and then you would pay for the money that It's being spent. My problem here with the stipend It's because it's for these people. I don't think

118it can be accurate. We are once again very tight on money, then find these opportunities to To automate it, we use Raptor, we use technology. So, I I think that by looking at other options, I know, I've done my travels, I have Having worked with this, I know that It takes time, but we can use technology to help us only because the reason for the money. If we had the money, well, I wouldn't I would have a problem with this. Correct. That's $300 a month for 12 months. So, I believe this is a suggestion. It could be reducing the months, uh... according to the school calendar. I I understand that they are still driving, But during that time, let's say, I don't know, Uh, when are the holidays of Summer, whatever time it is, then

119They can request their exact mileage. For the months that are very slow, Maybe they're not driving so much to receive that. That would be a suggestion. Domínguez Cervantes, I think I've read "efficient" here. Efficient instead of Exact. I believe that we could both have. I think that It has been shown that a table can be created. I I know we did it with the county, and if not The funds are there, so we can use technology, one page per month, then How many miles is it from the district to Sony and from here to there and to another district. They don't have to to write the miles, I only went to Fister and the miles are already there on the chart and tells them how many miles. And in June, July and August, well, especially

120in June and most of July Perhaps there isn't that much handling. So I think the mileage could be efficient, we can be accurate and not It has to take a long time if they forget to enter your mileage. They are Looking at their calendars, they have everything in their calendars. Ah, yes, I did this. January 10th. I went to Fister and then From there I went to such a place. And this is with this responsibility. In the past, CEOs they had They had $600 a month, They had contracts. It can be in one day. five different places. It's not just the district, It's from place to place. It could be the county office. I did a quick calculation. Wanna we assure you We will issue the refund. Ahorita hicrito. This 50 miles in one day.

121That would be 35 days. 350 days, whatever it takes, because we have to give them the exact amount because they are driving and 30 and 300 are not covering. And if it's 400, that must be be. That's why I think that's more accurate. It can be much more, as the President Hugte, he can be much more. What I'm hearing here was from money and he was worried about saving money And it's to save time and to be efficient and it is with the understanding of that these positions cost spending on cars. And I know that when we conduct the interview For the Superintendent, one of the things What came out is that one of the candidates He mentioned that he had to drive from a Chulovista side on the other side, to north, east, west

122and the amount of times they did it in one day They had 50 miles. I'm going to be very honest with you. Honestly It takes a long time. I know that the Mrs. Dominguez mentioned that There is someone who can. make a table, but But yes, it takes time. especially many oh yes there is one emergency at a school, so they go and They support the director, Hey, It's often not on the calendar, They need to go to the emergency room. They don't have to write the mileage. Uh, what I'm saying is that it takes time to your day, then we can say that if they are spent More than $300, then we can re-evaluate. What I want is for me I'm going to check if it's something that costs money. I I think we're

123at the bottom of the cost and we can see this and have these Great ideas, but for now, I'm just... I know these people have to be paid for their time. I have one ask. I see that most of these Possessions do go to schools a lot, But can you help me with resources? humans. The CEO and the senior straight. How often do they visit the schools? For example, e Excellent question. There is no day of the academic year that I don't go to schools. Jorge Mora, he is responsible for each school autonomous. He was at our meeting today. He goes, he attends six meetings, ah from charter school board to uh six a month And every time we have complaints about the parents and all that stuff or In emergencies, we are in the

124schools. diary, on average daily. I don't want to save money behind the backs of the staff. I am requesting approval. If I don't have someone to back me up, no I have it. I will second that. Secretary, please, can you ask for the vote. Ramírez Domínguez, no. Toast me. Domínguez Cervantes, no. Tamayo, I The motion passes 32 T. Domínguez Cervantes, authorize the district to celebrate agreement with work Architecture Inc for services of architecture, engineering for proposed modernizations in three schools for the period from November 11th September 2025 until completion of the projects. My question, This money that's going to be spent is from beginning to end, which are ah This is a scale depending on the cost, Because I understand that sometimes there are things that come out that don't, that don't They budgeted. Ah,

125I don't want this money to pass through. Perhaps another company could have this contract. And on the same note, Stefanie received uh something. Doctor Reyes is a project that We have to work next summer because there was insufficient planning during the summer. They have no windows. When the power went out, Tiffany had to cancel your classes. They have no windows. We need to make it a priority to This, these structures. Yes, still I request the approval of 11 T. I I second. Ramírez Domínguez, Yo. Tolsten, I. Domínguez Cervantes, Yo. Tamayo, Yo, Ugarte, me. The motion passes Article 11U. Ramírez Domínguez. It was previously stated that this It is a company for which we are passing by paying for the same position. The first time we paid more than 13,000 And we're paying for this one.

12630,000. 20,000 It's more than 33,000 And even if we change it from COO to the new Since this is only happening to us saving $000. We're still in the red and We hired someone for this position. I'm doing the math. just to bring another person. I want to know Why do we have to pay someone else? company. We don't need to do it. We can recruit. But since it's a very special position, If we were hiring someone from a director of curriculum and instruction, This is a very, very special field. So, our circle of influence, but professional influence is more that nothing to the educational component that of education, sorry, to construction and facilities. So, uh We need candidates to select, so that they believe that they are that are qualified. and they are going

127to do the evaluation and the recruitment and then they're going to send us candidates in order to continue the interviews. However, if the board does not He wants us to go for this route, then we can do it us. Because I was thinking, we already have a person who is doing a good I work on this, so why don't we use your experience? He's an expert, right? That's why we gave him this job. Okay, perfect. So why not, ah eh eh We do what we do with what we We have it and we didn't spend $20,000 to bring it that we can bring someone qualified? It is a decision that the board of directors has to do it. Trusty Ton They basically answered my question in because And again, then They brought the candidates together

128appropriate. Can you explain what the job? Would you help with recruitment? They They have many connections. How long does it take from beginning to end? It can take four to six weeks. Perhaps there's something in between here. That's something I don't understand either. I don't know if our expert we have Whether I have it at home or not, I can take it out from different areas. I don't know if we can negotiate the number of dollars here or the aspect Mr. Tom, I don't know. I don't know, I'm just throwing out ideas. Yes, they gave us different estimates and also it was with Effective, isn't it? We have seen school services for California. We can have an estimate additional because they are here at the state level in California, uh, with some of construction. We

129probably we would benefit if it stays in California and not at the level national. I recommend it for this time to put to move this article to another board. Ah, the thing is, these are Only a California company does it for superintendents either Cos. because they can through CASW to have the certification. That's why I was recommending watching search with them and maybe We can go back to MGT. We are seeing Mr. Tom leave Are you going or what? I'm trying my best to convince him to stay. You cannot hide behind the Mrs. Rossy. She is small. Hi, Tom. Ah, I like being here. I enjoy being here. I am a retired, But what it means I can only work 960 hours per fiscal year And they hired me in March, then I'm close to

130this limit. I work with Mark And then last week I started with a 3-day schedule. I'm not planning on leaving, but it's limited. Yes, I want to say that when Mark and I started working on To work on this with Joyen, I contacted seven people And I don't know if they applied for the position or No. I suspect three won't, because they They have their own business. I don't know what happened because I didn't see the 30 applicants who came, but From my side, through Cash, to through Casbo and another organization We are trying to do our best. That's what's happening. I think that an outside company is a intelligent movement because we're going to have They can get in touch further with more openness with other people. and Cwel in the planning. We are

131putting ourselves in contact, we are trying, we are not planning to leave. A question, So, with your experience, do you think that if we We published this, Do you think we're not going to have a good time? Number of candidates? So, this move as director senior is better than someone from here. That It's a different question, and I don't know the answer. I can answer to have enough people. I'm going to be honest with yourself. It's better to have people from outside. Thank you. So, Whatever the board decides, I know. that one of the reasons this is It offers as a mission the thing is I want us to keep in mind that We want to make sure what to do fiscal decisions. Absolutely. I I'm listening and taking everything in, but I want to

132make sure that too Let's go and reflect on one of the reasons that it was a conversation of the board of directors that we are expanding the lens much more. So, as I said, I'm glad we decided that we decide to remove it and move it to another gasket, but I do want to put one on solution to avoid the problem. He used to be a CEO, now he's a director senior. It's the same level of work. What is it that I didn't understand? Yes, we can. get in touch with more, But we don't know if it will be a best estimate or budget. When we remove something, it means that We'll move this article to the next one. meeting, next month. And it's going to be to recruit a director senior, not a CO.

For this cycle

138school year 2025 It is a little less than 192 million. in response to questions from the board, No? That's for testing, not just for for the one below 198 millions is the money we can spend. Yes, that's correct. Yes, yes, yes. and it went up because of the cost of life and due to the start of inflation. Ah, very well thank you. That would be all. Hey, a seconded motion. Who was it? No, Tamayo, The secretary, please, if you can to be called no llam Domínguez. I, Tamayo, I. Playing you. The motion passes very good. Adopt. Approve. summary of expenses changes in the balance sheets I have submitted them for the school cycle 20 24 2025. Thank you for your art. Good evening everyone. Today our review and approval of the of our That would

139be like our final statements or balance sheets. So let's start with the change of the general fund. We have the first one The column shows an estimate of budget for our adoption of Budget for the 2526 school year where we have provided current estimates and we call them, uh, current, uh, no audited because we also have our own We weren't audited until October, But we have our expenses. preliminary, Regarding our income, we have an increase of 2.4 million. When we see the expenses, we have an increase I regret, a one and a decrease in our expenses of 18.8 8 million, which is... restricted expenses and not restricted. When we see our final balance, when we are looking at a eh a decrease of 10 from 160 million to 167,000 million that are not we can

140see a decrease in our current estimates because we are committed to 50.99 million, what I'm going to see more ahead are restricted funds of 83 million, so we have a change to our reservation for our because of our concerns economic and an increase of 2.5% 5% And thanks to the work we have done at the beginning of 2024 2025 We are looking at the positions and the expenses and really examine if We need to fill those vacancies or positionally, uh, reassign those responsibilities to other positions and determine if they are necessary, are necessary expenses. Again, when we look at the health of district, we need to see, uh, the funds, no restricted, which is the first column and the second column, expenses restricted. As we can see, the funds are not restricted we have a

141deficit of 4.3 million and on the gas side restricted an increase of 1.2 millions where we receive funds, uh, with anticipation and we spend them along of several years. So the total combined we had 2.4 million of one reduction of 2.4 million. It seems to me important This slide shows our 4.3 million expense shortfall. unrestricted. When we see our income and changes in our revenue, our control formula local, which is the SFF, based on our our average attendance daily attendance. We have two two restricted funds, our income federal governments had a decrease And we're going to do but those in our state programs we have an increase mainly due to our program expanding opportunities learning. An increase, an increase of ours interest income of 1.6 million and There is also an adjustment to the value

142of market. What we have to do, determine the value, the county treasure has helped determine the value of our uh uh our money in the bank with the treasurer based on the investments of It's like, it's like his home. when you buy a house, for example, They buy it for $00,000, but it is appreciated by the by the market and is now worth 1.2 million, but even though they haven't sold it, There are 500,000 of unrecognized value, So that's what it is, where it is We make the artificial adjustment that we have to do. And in July We need to make an adjustment, which increases our revenue artificially by 2.5 million and also all our other income They will be reflected and transferred 2.7 e of our Chip and CB subsidies CY BHI. When we

143look at our fund expenses general, salary and benefits, we have some vacancies, but we also have some agencies that are filling one of those vacancies. We need a long one large amount of funds from the ILOP program that we don't use completely, We used them in contracts and we had to to make a one million dollar joke. When we look at our books and supplies seems to be a professor, but this is going to happen the next year. That's our order for books from text that is more than 6 million dollars. that we are planning Initially, we are going to receive all textbooks at the end of of the fiscal year, but not before this school year. So that will be reflected in the first uh interim adjustment as approximately 2.4 millions that are going

144to be transferred. We have some subsidies that were not uh that they weren't spent, that they also They are going to transfer. When we see expenses in services and operation, we had a decrease of approximately 4 million. That's going to be it used the next school year. There were also some subsidies that that we are going to spend next year, our most recent revolution, No so that you can stop interest. It is bigger, taller in the the cash so we can divide it over 2 years to power eh eh save on interest. And our approximate expenses to $500,000 were as well as the leasing of copiers and things like that. We had to do a year-end adjustment in our books to reflect those expenses. In general we have, we have a, uh, a decrease of

14518 million of which will go to transfer or 11.7 million in expenses for the next school year. When we look at our commitments, We have 2.4 million in the our security measures There are 1.5 million, the same as the cameras in the buses that we are going to install this year. Also a need to update our systems of telephone and our radios emergency. These are some examples when We see our vehicle replacements 1.5 million again We are replacing some of our vehicles also in electrifying our school buses with those subsidies to minimize costs and also equipment for the maintenance of landscape. We also have the devices for students and staff. So we have made that commitment. We also have our replacements for textbooks, We have our textbooks, from mathematics and uh that in the next

146uh school cycles will be adopted uh the mathematics curriculum, history and social sciences. Our last category It is in services and provision of staff. Hey technology in the classroom. Yeah, There are some infrastructure projects which we are also analyzing as wireless access, replacements Hey Technology in the classroom, also our stabilization of budget, which we will see in the next slide when we look at our school year 2425. We have a decrease of 4.3 million with 7.8% in our bookings. Can to see that in 20, 25, and 26 it is again a a little higher than we expected because we have replacements for technology that we have for a one-time purchase, So we can see. So There is a deficit of 14 million. dollars and we add another year from 28 29 more of 21 million.

147So as you can see the balance of non-restrictive funds that They are in the second column This row, our 5% reserve to 4% to 3% and eventually to we will be in a negative balance of 1.8%. So we're going to have to... having to take out of that final balance. So we have, despite the fact that This closure looks better, we need to work on our plan budget And because otherwise, why wouldn't we comply? with that 3%. So we must continue with that plan. And with that, I'll leave it open to questions. So for these slides that we showed the unrestricted funds, Uh, it goes from 83 million to 5 million in 28 29. I can explain how we got to that number. That comes from the first line that is shows a decrease to

148our eh balance. So we are not reaching our deficit. And on the second page, what is And interest income? Interests. Here I go. I don't know. Here I am. Here I am with her. On the next slide, in the part The lower end of post-COVID, the 23 million interest income. What is behavioral health? that's what it costs each year, that alone a reservation? If the board decides to continue with those services, then We can draw from that reserve, but They really still support it in the long term That deficit. Okay, thank you very much. It's very useful to see those colors and not just a pile of papers. It's a matter for... motion for approve it. Seconded. Secretary, it can call for a vote. Dolson. I. Sunday. I. Tamayo. I. Playing you. The motion passes

149general information, reports. That's the board's part. where they can request reports from the Dr. Reyes. Mrs. Dominguez Ramirez. Yeah, I helped with I know it's not part of it. I I helped Dila's meeting where We had rainfall that was very heavy. They opened their eyes. How much food Are we pulling as a district? Because they declared that nothing is thrown away, But I've heard from other people that Yes, food is being thrown away. I have worked as I'm a recess supervisor, so yes, I know. that a lot of food is thrown away, but not Just one school, but I want to know how much we are throwing away. And the second, How do you want it? How do you want it? quantified? Is there a way to... find out, Did they tell us at the

150Gilac meeting? If the food is not eaten, it is used for the next day. And who throws the meal? The students or the district? Yeah, Yes, we students cannot, there is no manner. But, but The other thing that was mentioned was that lunches that are subsidized, so no It costs us money. The other thing that He mentioned that the lunches that are subsidized items that don't cost us money. I want to know, I want Mr. Tamayo He asked about it, but of this lunch, second chance, second chance breakfast. How much would that cost us, right? For I know that The cafe and dining room will not be open. How much would it cost? again? They had said it costs nothing in the Dark meeting. I want to make sure that We know the true number

151And if it doesn't cost us anything, what then? Is this what we're doing about it? Those would be my two reports that I am applying. Thank you. Nothing for the today. Thank you. I would like a report, Dr. Reyes. I think we've all received emails electronics of some teachers of benchmark for grades three through six. It's very... they are... very emails extensive, but the staff, the teachers They're practically crying, huh? In these emails, pleading with a growing concern with the absence of the material of forward who have not yet received these materials from the double teachers investment that they have not received materials from the Benchmark program. Forward. And that contradicts what is said about him. He told them during their training. During the holidays. The buyers declared that for the cycle 20,256 eh There

152would be a pilot episode of this program. forward. And but those have been cancelled, changed. I'm reading it so that I can capture what... I would like that in that report. There are several emails. I had the opportunity to read the emails and I sent him a response that addresses those concerns with the deadline and what happened and where we are. They could tell the teachers that They might be listening to what the la is. answer. What I will do I'm going to talk to Mrs. Pérez and with the and to communicate to the teachers what is happening passing. Another thing, in one of our There were updates from Friday section on Achieve 3000 and we know that which was a supplementary tool. Mrs. Martinez, we have spoken to regarding the concern that the students

153are in front of a computer all day, but because the objective that it was designed for to create a supplementary tool the measure. of those of Most teachers don't They use it as an instruction for reading, but not as a practice differentiated. There are other assessments, That's not a writing program. So teachers should be trained to create instruction. all levels The complaint remains because there is a great variety of lexides in each 20-room suite 9. If that's the intention, and if that's where to go Okay, teachers need to know if they're going to be provided with another tool, but But to start using listening The rumors don't help them in their cheer up and feel that the leadership is not supporting them keeping informed. What is the intention? It's about eliminating achieve 3000 and Yes,

154and if so, the intention is analyze Yeah if I achieve 3000 if it is producing academic results that we want and that we need. And if I achieve 3000, The results align with the academic results and not only that the student showed better in many points, but it has no effect on his performance in the test CASP. really really analyze the information, the data, But I can suggest if we can where the teachers are being successful in use, how are they using them. Perhaps the idea is to see how are they using that program year after year, how they use it in front of those students who are sitting in front of the computer, everything all the time. So. So the A tool is just a tool and how to use it and how to

155use it. Just so you know, no action has been taken no decision to date. again Mrs. Moral, Mrs. Moral's team Morales and Mrs. Montgomery are working on analyzing the results. Yeah, also if we can analyze those rooms or classes where the teachers have have been successful uh uh in front of or compared to those teachers who perhaps are not trained to use that program. So So that would be the report about what's happening and e-bikes and the electronic dark ones the last I mentioned it once, it was a disaster. We have a policy for, I don't know yet. but one of our students from preparatory. It's not a policy, It's not a policy of the table. We're going to make a report. I know we've been working with the city ​​to send a communication, so

156I'll send you a report and combo classes. There are some schools that have concerns about the classes combined school grades. I'm sure. Mrs. Cassy is working with some classes, several classes to see if it's possible minimize the number of grade levels combined, But yes, I will have to, I will have to submit a report next update to the board of directors. That's it, I think that's all. We could opt for a report of the average daily attendance. Yes, I would like a more comprehensive report. about what is happening and how we are handling it the week of Red Lion. I know it We spoke briefly, especially of the negative effect that they have drugs. Of course, thank you. Tamayo Member. Nothing. Okay, My focus is more on the short to long term. That's a meeting

157today. that the cost of construction has increased 47%, so my request It has nothing to do with construction, but It has to do with whether we can give it follow-up to our point of reference or baseline. Already. And now at the end of the second quarter. Basically, until December if we see what happens. an increase in those prices or because if That's an increase of 47%. then there's going to be a increase in other areas. Yes, I want a report now that you've finished. By mentioning that, we can get a report on the time it took us to do this, the united ones of school safety like doorbells. Thank you. communication from the board of directors is a part on the agenda of members of the The board of directors can inform you audience and

158events they have attended of the district or boards. Thank you. As I mentioned earlier, I attended to the Brain parents' workshop Balance. And it was very interesting. I love watching There are a lot of parents there and I love it California Pis and Kitchen incentive. They gave us a coupon, a free food item. I don't know if it was part of the district or of Brain Balance, but hopefully it will be an incentive for parents attend. I also attended the meeting of Dila, as I mentioned before, and it was Very interesting to see more parents talk about food, about the creation of the food and make sure that we are giving to the students eh nutritious food. And, as I mentioned previously, uh, not only One of the parents brought in research, strategies the type

159of quality of food and I know our district was going to talk to him. That's all I was able to attend. I had, no, I had two, uh, these deaths in my family because I said I was coming to the to the community Expo. I was very I was excited, but then I had those two deaths in my family. So Thank you so much for this month. Glide I plan to visit more schools and I already... I told Celi that I want to start visiting schools again, so Yes, so I'm so mad dismayed by Charlie's death Kirk, who was shot today and died. and also to the families of Pennsylvania. Interestingly and based on the climate of the last three three weeks with the shooting in the Catholic school. I had the opportunity of being

160a shadow in a simulation of total closure. We were notified on Friday and I wanted to see it And no, I didn't imagine the details. We have seen the uh uh drills of fire and earthquake. I met with Daren from our team security did an excellent job, which makes for excellent security. job. We divided into five groups and and they implemented a complete lockdown, the drill and we saw each classroom and I was very impressed and I went to kindergarten classrooms and second grade. We entered the halls And I asked Mrs. Lander if They're here because they weren't talking and No, I couldn't see them, they couldn't see nobody. They did an excellent job. We opened the doors, they were barricades with bookshelves and tables and uh the seriousness that is taken with This drill,

161with the children, with the administrators and with the teachers. and I know that it's just a school, maybe because I received the notification and asked to attend. I know all schools take it, huh? with seriousness and Darian showed me how the app works and what it's very effective. So I want to congratulate everyone, obviously, that the entire district takes this I took the matter seriously and was very... impressed by the way those teachers And they all support the students, huh? calm. So it was an experience sober. I had the opportunity of this eh visit the Finny and Juarez school Linker with Mrs. Rosy and again I was able to meet the directors. more personal. Enjoy your visit to Juarez Lincoln. They're teaching him, huh? This leadership, inventory And that's all. I saw a student get

162her refreshment. I know it's an ongoing thing and in the end. AND Physical education was very pretty. patience and dedication of the teachers with the students playing Obstacle Course and it seemed they were having fun a lot, they were in the in the in the multi-OS, so I'll wait for make more visits. I have a grandson in Phoenix. I attended Vista Square in a security presentation for riding a bike. They did an excellent job and the The children were winning bicycles, They got helmets, they had more, more, uh helmets for children. One of the ladies... He approached and said, "Where are the children?" They had 500 helmets and they didn't... they were able to give. Maybe they gave 100. They had lots of food, They had activities for children, but I think we missed an

163opportunity to that we were able to other families there present and take advantage of the opportunity. We missed a great opportunity, but I went The children were having fun. I also went to a meeting where There was a gentleman who was speaking about about a program that he is trying to develop. for teachers and administrators and people who are working on their administrative belief to help them with the down payment for a house. So I'll be there, uh Sharing that information, sir Rosy, for These are resources to see if I can to help people in the field educational. I don't know if it's only for teachers. But I'm going to pass that information on to you. in with respect to the east shelter in the place. There are some schools that I know Mr. Romero

164I spoke with him and talked about this. previously, that some schools They have a center that they cannot to close, is the way it is configured. That would be something we should... revisit and find another solution. I think that's all from me. I had the opportunity not only assist in planning, the committee of planning from South Bay and was very excited, stay that we were able to uh bring uh to San Isidro, South Bay, National District, Sweet Water made the sight in a room and have an alignment with our community schools. We were able to analyze The feedback and everything was positive and ask for more because Plan those days with the schools, huh? receptors so that we can combine resources and to be able to gather them and fulfill the needs of our families.

165those communities was very proud and to see participation at all levels, from coordinators, uh, teachers, administrators, superintendents, assistants superintendents, because they to them They care about our students and our community is interested.
