016the diversity committee the committee contacted me because they Some local students want to the high school to talk about Why is Black History Month is important for them Distance is learning at zoom distance we have had Speakers like Dr. Clark and the doctor The students have talked about many things. topics that have been in their hearts and in their minds, a more poignant point is talk about their experiences, like with the racism once Then they asked him why his son I hadn't been there, I was in jail in prison after hearing that To say it didn't affect me would be to remain silent. short films Dr. Clark is going to form a anti-prejudice committee evidence lombardi Not everything is ciguanar because they carry a score control I didn't know what the word "middle" meant. raised
017at that time I hated mediocrity when I He was trying to play football No, I wasn't simply happy about it. Being on the team, I decided to mark the difference in our team winning two things I wanted to be when I grew up Rapper and NFL player, how do you see it? The rap thing didn't work out, but still The thing about it being in the NFL could still be which means a new look and with regard It is important for me to stand out among the best What about us, the School District? I'm talking about the school districts in Monte from all over the country, the state, and here in the Bay Area grapples with White supremacy with cynicism But let's hope that at this moment the equality and equity and justice social and
018the unity that are needed prevail over hatred the book Rising It is a man that had links with the And there is a transformation with the ideology of supremacy white and this person was able to realize of the impact that their actions had racism and white primacy must be left behind It's a disturbing nightmare. and has injured many people with the White super supremacy the district of Monte Hablo is a hope and a light in anti-racism and the committee and history month black, that's why I feel confident that we can be together other districts working with other districts of How we can deal with the white supremacy I read something about taking action against the extremism They said the community is stronger. When one is divided, one must unite. uniting against violence, I add that
019we have to deal with prejudices racial in all its forms Thank you board of directors Dr. Clark all the I hope we can listen to what you're hearing. working together in education and ma'am Thank you very much, sir. Good evening to the School District had the pleasure of being a consultant for ten years in the district and wanted To highlight the work I have done Lately, and that was in all four. last four years of presenting my history exhibitions in schools elementary schools and also schools of secondary education and I also had the privilege to present Community Month exhibits Hispanic and from the islanders, that five thousand and five hundred students and fifty Teachers, I want to emphasize this: We are in times when some people People don't know what to do, I think. We
020have examples in many areas of things that could be progressive and could move forward with racial equality but There is no record because I was very glad to hear the gentleman speak of his dream for the District as I have I've been there, I've been there in I know that it is possible. So I ask that perhaps the committee make the and other activities this month that develop a model that could be used throughout the district and it doesn't have to be only black people but with a model that is equal and respectful for all people from the district. So I have many hopes and I can't wait for that happens thanks Thank you very much, Dr. Freire Many thanks to the Lord There was no sound. Good night everyone It was the superintendent and
021the board I want to reach out to the school community and the entire school community Thank you all for allowing me to speak as a guest in this important agenda item as Hey director, I'm here at WCP. with the district we support to enact the month of African American because history is important for intellectual well-being and emotional and throughout all my years of master in all parts of the I had never heard of schools. stories of black people in this country But what I did find out is that everyone we had been slaves, I had nothing of that to be especially proud of because my people spend their time in Africa Running in the jungle without shoes I grew up without a sense of pride. I'm missing something, or knowledge of my own history and
022in the small amount from misinformation about knowledge historical that I had I had the same foundation as everyone else I grew up with an inferiority complex. history for those who don't believe that The story has to be many years in some parts of the stories from African American teaches us, teaches you but not enough. I hope this resolution makes changes there from For a long time my ancestors have been in We lived on this land for six hundred years Here we go to change the history books It has been discussed that two out of so many Centuries of slavery in this country, yes. a limited conversation about the role important that the people have had black in all wars the war of 1812 the civil war are the soldiers black people responded to those victories
023I don't know anything, I never knew anything about this during my twelve years of education I was deprived just like my colleagues This deprivation is harmful to our students of the rich history of the United States Together I ask the council to try the resolution of African American History Month Now, and I also wanted to say that in his resolution there is something that perhaps did But I've seen that everyone does it. It has in paragraph four with respect Well, it says here that according to the report says that He was the first African American to die in the Revolutionary War it was the first person who died not only the first African American joined the first person who died in that war I believe that the Revolution has to Correct that because I've seen
024it in many resolutions So That part of the information is not true. one of the things I would suggest is This school district is for begin to obtain clarity in the word about the The word slave, which the concept in the The general perception is that black people were good slaves When they came here, and I tell you that When they came here they came like prisoners of war did not arrive as as slaves because they were not slaves. In Africa that part is a misunderstanding and This needs to be explained to his students. because they believe that when they mention slaves or that they were always slaves, no no You can see not a slave, but a human being. For you, the word slave is a form of dehumanization of the person So you
025can see that these people A child in chains was a slave, but I don't want to to change the subject I just want to make sure that the first What I would like them to do is... clarify that there is clarification from the people that they brought from Africa brought beings humans here men women children and babies not slaves Thank you very much Thank you for listening, and I hope you like it. accept And I hope they pass the resolution. Many Thank you, Mr. President. Count is in your hands. Thank you very much to the board. all for their important presentations I mean, sir of the month of February, not only in February but every month we are all looking at the same thing and it's absolutely the that we should want to do doctor
026develop a model that can be used In the district, doctor, that's fantastic. for the entire district and the gentleman when he spoke of He talked about several things, but a couple of things when he said he spoke of a thousand things six hundred of the project was thinking the information resource project for academic purposes to maintain the accuracy of academic information So thank you all very much for being here Here and now I want to open up this to the school board to do the motions for this resolution Maybe it was without sound can we hear you I had the headphones before, if not The administrator can be heard That's very good. I make the motion. that the month of the African American history Thank you very much because of the second emotion I would
027like second that emotion and say that having been born and raised in what was It was a very diverse community. I felt very strongly about this resolution, I've always said it every year since I've been on this council We've talked this month, we'd have to Do that every day and in every situation Forms like that have always resonated with me this year specifically It brings more importance and resonates much more And I hope that we will become a model for the other districts in the area We must do this as part of it Many of our everyday conversations thank you That's what the Amazon administrator said. we have said in the resolution actually is the framework of science studies social skills that you need to have on your resume correct from history because that's why
028It highlights people from different backgrounds because men and women from all nations This That's what we're required to do, isn't it? only for the month of February. So Thank you very much for bringing that up. Another comment regarding the vote Yes, administrator, thank you very much, sir. Mr. means as an eighties girl who grew up in California's central valley She was usually the only black girl in the school and education of African Americans This was it, they were slaves, there was lynchings and now, well, this is like girl from the eighties My African American friends taught them to me. parents and we have also seen the one The documentary is called "There Where Price" It must be a documentary, you have to see it Because that's what we've been visiting like so year after year
029and only because my parents found out George Washington Johnny among many others historical and influential figures and without I have mentioned the historical events. I have been inspired by many teachers who in the district that they have on their own done everything possible to give a multicultural curriculum to the students and not only During the months of African Americans but all the For months I have been inspired by parents who They understand and defend themselves against those of Racism and appreciation. The decades of so much promotion has been done, like the administrator with them have proposed and I am on the shoulders of our parents from Georgia and others I hope that influential people will students learn much more than I do I learned as a child that this should be taught all year round
030and which is due to Please put this resolution in. Thank you very much. administrator, very good. How nice to have her. as a member of our school board Any other comments or questions?

036who gives a report gives it And we're leaving, we don't believe that We have a great responsibility and responsibility to their students for to be able to help them and with the information Our job is to be their eyes and their ears initially to give the comments to tell you what We see and hear in order to tell you their strengths, their strong points and weak and we will continue with you do everything possible to support them I'm here because I have the key papers in the support system especially is working with local agencies and try to coordinate individualized and coordinated support Then we That's for us. document what is needed The goal is not to make plans on paper. additional but support what is already there doing as also giving the opportunity that they
037also give us feedback on This is what we see, the only thing about this is We are doing this in collaboration with California for Excellence education, and that's why we want that we have to do the work with collaboration, and especially we do it collectively with the office of County as allied partners in the Department of Education as well and also with the County leaders and of the state, which is another resource to availability for us and specifically We work with the agencies local educational institutions. So We'll pass it on to the superintendent. We have the possibility of assistance differentiated We understand the results that are being presenting on the California panel and To better understand the system we have These are the points to see if we can make systemic changes On the screen
038you can see a list of points that are differentiated assistance We are willing to partner with the district and this is to make sure that we are all aligned once cs se se Add this up, let's see if we can implement all of this in a way measurable the following slide by favor So the general model The improvement plan is based on these three questions what we are trying to achieve How will we know that the change that What we're going to do is make an improvement, and finally What change can we try to make that will resulting in an improvement once Let's keep that idea in mind for change. we're going to do Let's see if we can make improvements before expand it to larger populations Next slide please Our team is ready to
039support you. We have enjoyed this journey throughout the school year We have gone to the CCE training sessions We also have participants monthly we have coordinators instructors Beyond the support we are sending We have some areas that we expect can We look forward to working with you. We thank our partners in this process We thank you time and I give the floor to cc Ee thank you Next slide please I want to explain this, take this a few minutes Mau the mouse spoke to you was one of the four districts in the state that identified in according to article five two zero six four point five which is the California panel of the California schools three or more students in their groups of three or more student who identified if the district has fewer than
040three subgroups This is in red. (From three students) In particular, what we do is... Click here to see those groups We evaluate the district as a whole. It is necessary to provide assistance advice and we work with the County office We have a dual role, which is always We have to support the School District And we've always done it. but the previous district did not meet the requirements for this But We can do it if the district wants. That service. If we see here with these student groups we can give feedback And how can we support them? We do that through our support system and we also monitor when the district begins to implement some of the strategies I want to talk about that and about what he says regulation It's new, so we can
041kind of... invent This one, like that one, is the first of those four districts No, what interests us is power identify what is happening and follow working with the district because There is a role we have to play to see if we can support the needs of these students. So, as I said We do this by partnering with the office of county and the goal is to help support the County office we collaborate together so that the district doesn't have to do something separate with the office of district and with us Positive science, please. as I mentioned We have here the 2016 17 17 18 we see here that the students have been identified African Americans the homeless and the young people in temporary adoption next slide I want to make sure What part of
042my objective and role is that Let it be very clear to the board what the COE says according to the article five two zero seven two says the superintendents, that is, the one of The superintendent is a state official who will only... intervene in a School District if meets the following criteria if the district meets the criterion that establishes the five two zero six four point five for three or more subgroups of students So you fulfill that first criterion the second criterion It says that educational excellence California's collaborative has provided advice and assistance to the School District and presents the The following conclusions to the superintendent, as I said, we have already provided support I'm going to talk a little bit about And based on this work we have to make a decision if the
043district fails or cannot implement the recommendations or if the School District has adequate or inadequate performance This is the part I was referring to. We need to define how We made this decision if you fail or if they cannot implement the recommendations one of the things that I want to make it clear that Nobody wants to be the report And look what the report says, no, no We think they can do it, it wouldn't be Just for you We presented that information to the board. Then by mayor and it is his obligation for you to take the decision if you think based on What do they want to do with that information? That information is aligned with your What are their objectives if they want to do it? want to do for their students and
044They have certain obligations to meet We talked with us about that ideas have Based on that conversation we can continue and then We can continue advising. to meet with you at the office of county with other support resources participate together and we have this obligation to do to make a report for to make sure you are aware We are reporting again on this report. to the superintendent to find out how they are advancing at the same time the panel of the school They'll probably have it next time. It is very unlikely that we will have autumn. that meeting, the objective Our goal is not to have to I think the superintendent should intervene He doesn't want it So it's simply providing a a resource that will help you Next slide please I think Matt is
045passing the microphone now. at the moment Matt, you're on mute, you're on, you have the Microphone off, it's not your turn. Ah Okay, I'll continue. Superintendent, I apologize. then we reached a point where we have to make this decision no It seems they can meet the student needs Then We're forwarding this to the superintendent who has to do this can do Changes to the local control plan may help impose an amendment in the budget with an accountability plan accounts that to improve the district Improve results can rescind a measure provided that we have the agreement collective bargaining and also that it would prevent improvements results for the groups subgroups students and also appoint a academic director the superintendent has the responsibility to notify County superintendent to the board from Education to the superintendent of School
046District and any of These measures, as I mentioned before, one at a time four and it also has to have the one that has I'm telling you this: the board's approval so you can see how it works. That's what the law says, and it's in our best interest. Much of it, as I told you, is the topic of the measures and we have worked with Superintendent Clark formerly his name that collaborates a lot We are very excited about that. opportunity to work with you and I'm going to answer questions at the end of the presentation and now I'll give you the Words to the doctor. Thank you, director. Armelian executive. And if we can continue With the next slide we will Talking about what we do now is It is the second phase of the
047process and It is the review process systemic training designed to evaluate the practices of instruction. And we have two elements of instructions listed here We do it with a focus We collect individualized data, we go and we do interviews individuals and also groups of approaches and also in conjunction with other facts that arise in the district we evaluate these twelve elements for the analysis which is basically What are the strengths? weaknesses opportunities and threats of these twelve components and there is an analysis that is makes all this research that we are doing now I currently have What can I say? Thank you very much to the District. Dr. Sax, Superintendent Clark, the board members to you board members our members of the board All their assistance is access to the stakeholders the district we are
048on the way to reach these conclusions We will follow the recommendations. The next slide shows these. These are the methods we have used for collection of methods since data collection there are three Sources Before reporting the incident, they can see This report It is a form of look at the instructional practices in the district and systems. And the good thing is that the The Partners, the stakeholders, that They can implement those things and others. That's the process we're going to continue with. The next slide is important. It's one of my favorite slides because many times in education there is no We use an approach based on the items We talk about the things that are functioning well in the district their current views their roles the result etcetera The district has a lot of diversity
049that That is their strength, which we see is emerging if we look at all those points positive what has been done knowingly previous board all the principles and the teachers and support staff We're really looking at all of those items The following is a slide In fact, we're going backwards. sorry and we look at all the elements This process is quite objective. the last one, the third one is conversations with the lea and the soe We are very pleased to be able to do That, and then we based it on the report cs and r and we developed an action plan that for strengthen the trajectory that you already have They have when we see the performance of the students That's what motivates students to move forward next I want to give you an idea
050of the slide In general, we are almost at the halfway through the process Next week will be the midpoint for them, half for us already we have listened and learned data collection And we already drafted a draft with the district of the with the county office and district We have already shared the first one The first one will be the first contributor March 1st, the second draft March 18th and the latest draft March 31 data analysis and then we'll move on to the meetings with several of the agencies We work with the district; we are partners. from you to make sure of that they continue. We try to do the coordination with the various agencies I'm very excited to be working with So, let's continue with the Next slide This is a very Good slide,
051the board too. of the role as you as a board So I want to congratulate you as We are still in this process, I think. There are several reforms that can help the board The first is by participating in the We thank you for that interviews. The Voice of the district is so important in This process approves a lsap for to ensure that priority is given priority to district resources for the areas where the students They need. And finally to be a champion of policies for to support the actions and measures and Sir's recommendations for change next systemic This is where we'll be receiving questions. So, if they have questions, this would be a photo. snapshot of what we're doing AND what we can perhaps make progress on and I'm going to Give the floor
052to Superintendent Clark and The president, the lady, thank you for the I'm so glad that the presentation We are associated with you; it is a a resource that the state makes available to us I know that's important for high-caliber school boards to achieve the performances and this Alliance will help us help achieve that focus and to take action in the areas we need I am very happy about the alliance and the information that you will share with You will share with us other board members if they have comments or questions to the administrator I think it's silent. now yes It says nothing. Thank you very much for the presentation. I'm curious I know you've formed many groups of studies at least with the district-sponsored committees and parent groups and the three subgroups that qualified to
053take these measures were the black students who students who are homeless who are feeling who are homeless and also the The boys are from foster homes that Sometimes there are many adults who They are actually interested in these committees because of these groups and I don't know if There are groups or I'm sorry that I was without sound to answer the question yes connect with all aspects of This district is very important to us. to allow so that the correct data comes out To reduce, one must understand the process. And this is about going to visit the schools eh virtually visit classes and visiting the people of district as social workers parents Yes, we have an idea about with who we should talk to and normally We speak to the doctor again and the staff
054and working with others staff members and to begin to make a schedule so that people We arrived for interviews We operate by trying to get the data on speaking the same language That is, trying to talk about the categories we try to do that We're going to keep doing this to look at the interested parties representative And if they still exist many interrogative questions and We also need to provide a lot of direction. We are always open to suggestions and usually in the interview process We formulate the questions to see if there are other people with whom I think we can talk so we can talk. to put it to reflect a light on the subgroups not only those subgroups groups but all groups of student because they are not only not only those three
055but we are also interested in all the others Students. Perhaps that gives you an idea. We are still in the middle of it. process I think that's great. administrator who often Sometimes the district works with certain committees and there are people who may have access to the committees of the schedules that have or have the availability of time But in reality, that doesn't cover everything. The world doesn't reach everyone. A very good question to see if we are also bringing us closer, traditionally, to all the groups that we have We've spoken, we're getting to the true students listening to the voices and their perspective as well as that of families of they If the doctor has it, everyone else has it too. ideas on how one can approach the other people to know the point
056of view to respond To do live streams, tell us who you are. We need to know who they are. We are known in the local community We are relying on you to be able to to help students just like the office if you want to make sure that we are talking to people Tell us specifically who you are for to have as much information as possible so that the objective is that the information tells us what is happening What's going on? Why aren't we here? satisfying the needs of Students please help me, help us with that And I know we have help, but it's frustrating that sometimes there are districts that cannot identify Who are those adults and families? Another question I have in the report that is going to come out there will come
057with the data on the parents' demographics or of the interested parties in general interested that who saw that contributed There will be a general summary of the student group demographics Let's say language is what represents also in the district but sometimes not We share because of confidentiality. We don't call certain individuals that. us We set the topic for the facts concrete examples that emerge, and from there we begin to But knowing that the outlook is to alleviate this, we know that the outlook is... the organization We need to know what we're talking to. People need it. Thank you for the questions Thank you very much Any other questions? concerns I would say I like it a lot collaboration I'm a fan, I've been involved in collaboration with the County State that have turned out to
058be things that when We started, we didn't even think that It was possible, but when there are several people with various visions Incredible the progress one can make To do that, you need to have eyes that are watching from outside our programs So we could Doing wonderful work here. Many Thanks administrator Mason for your comments I want to say thank you very much for the presentations and the report in the coming months as we are we trying to work on the district that is important intentionally to include students from different demographics in the conversation not only to make the survey that That's what only the students answer. who have access but involve the boys from the classroom where it happens, where it occurs This is to have Consulting and having information on the boys from
059certain demographic groups ethnic groups that are fighting and that It is necessary to know at the state level of the groups For example, students from English those who have chronic absences students of color, all those groups relevant and intentional to try to try to find them for the program So let's get to work that those voices hear and are in the front rows as We are making progress Thank you, administrator. It seems I had a comment It means that I thank them for the comment Yes, the conclusions and the actions that will take the district that we say it We will do that which will benefit much more that these three groups of students because we know there are many talents each of them students and often the benefits This involves working with a student.
060I believe it benefits the second student. that the value of intention is important throughout the district. I mean I'm happy to have found that Prove that evidence. Thank you. administrator May as we go priority area and the criteria that He brought us to this place today It's that in general, whether they are students or not African Americans or those who live on the street or the boys from home breeding in all climates. These are all their problems that we want to talk about the school climate that It can affect all students The lady has comments very good Anything else Thank you so much We look forward to continuing to work with you. to see the progress in my life that We're moving forward, thanks a lot to you Now we're going to move on to
06111.3 These are the key issues, eh, Fiscal and of I want to present a budget to someone further unknown to the state and at the level national and actually by participating in the symposium of I heard from superintendents this week Kevin spoke with earlier today hundreds of superintendents throughout the state and accepting questions and giving us some good ideas of what This is happening at the financial level in the state and with the legislature without further ado I'm going to introduce Kevin from capital Many of you already know him But I think he has information valuable that can help our district and that can help us to Please continue with this presentation, sir. Gordon I love being with you. I don't know if You have my name was doctor González did it a little while
062ago, so okay They usually put my son's name. But anyway, I'm glad to be with you all superintendent member of the Council of the things we do Yes we interact with several superintendents and their leaders The team consists of people I know well. We've had conversations about me Complete happiness to come to this meeting or to tell them about some of the problems that exist in the budget and particularly in the district of giving you the information no I want to take up a lot of your time, but no I want to leave without answering questions but we have focused on a part I sent some presentations about matters PowerPoint if we have a presentation Yes, well, let's start with the first one. slide that is two that They encompass all that many people are
063speaking in which that is in the budget I want the state and federal governments to be The focus is that it's really what It is about... You could say it's a much better budget than the one They recall that we faced last year. In May the government was trying to make the biggest cuts in the history of the state I know that We thought like the How were we doing we will face them all I remember you were trying to Prepare several budgets, cuts, and You are being chosen again. make a difference for the boys But what they were giving them in In reality, the obligations of dismantle crucial important things that makes a difference for children Especially when you are seeking as much help as possible, like Tom and your team, the one from
064CC EE that you They are doing very important work What's happening with them now is that our friends from Sacramento happily they take the credit and They praise this enormous increase in budget of what was enacted up to Today I respect the challenge that They had, but when they have people who are making a fuss about what was What was happening is what was happening It was a a bad omen that this is disproportionate in the structure of taxes that target wealthy people when they made the cut they always we have known that we know that the We had to obtain the income. Revenues Remember there was a delay in in making them declare their taxes. that taxes were being imagined because what they forgot is the trajectory we had seen that California's revenue fund
065in In reality, it's controlled by rich people who are It was a recovery of the people rich but the people at the bottom of the spectrum They are struggling economically more than ever. This recession feels like an era of the problem of The Age of Depression that families have the boys who are in the most Low economics, but that's the most important part. high-ranking officials who manage general funds So there were good ones, better ones. budgets before Covid. So "There are the revenues," which means that... They don't need references, they didn't need them Making cuts or many things, that's me It helps to focus you on the key parts of the budget where there are the appearance that there is a lot of money in In reality, there are no new records that are beating,
066what happens is that when one The growth of year by year in whose trajectory we were If there hadn't been Covid, I would have teach How it would have happened so going down with the superintendent, Mr. González, we thought we could make sure that We were focused on a few things because I introduced her to the whole information to give you an overview of what It happened with money If you look at one of the topics that is more The important thing for us is the topic from the tail Let's assume the forecast is bad. But suppose we have the income that we expected, they think we They were going to give a zero-calorie cola this year Of course not. Then the Governor puts the tail in the middle of the The year in which
067we are applies the formula of what would be the tail and The number that is being obtained is the name using and once the glue is applied to This year and next year the tail of the year following we get the tail three point eighty and Four percent seems like a lot. But Remember, it's been two years. This is the main problem with the cola governor proposes that the formula of of the budget, but not many others programs then special education For example, you know the amount of money they are spending on education special You only receive 1.5 no the three point eight four think of What are the union members going to do? They want the three point eight four Of course, but they're not receiving it. money uniformly we don't them We pay
068you, you're in special education We negotiate contracts. So, it goes. to have a disadvantage when calibrating that quantity what we do So it is we have to inform our delegation legislative on this issue one thing There are some here. problems that need to be solved because They are putting the District in a situation quite strange So the tail has to be shaped uniform especially for education That would be especially important, the second one. point is the promises of the state that they promises to pay in a moment but Meanwhile, it is I'll borrow the money, but I'm going to I'll pay one day, but in the meantime I'll you allow borrow that money if we have an economy, what is it? what he should have done The governor is stopping all the funds. deferred with
069this idea This fiscal year will pay it next year the beginning of the following fiscal year But Look here at the blue three point seven thousand millions of dollars, that's it. pending because he doesn't pay them always that is needed to deal with the deferred money He should be paying attention to these issues budget before presenting ideas of how will he spend the extra money on the various schoolchildren in these programs Specials are crazy when you watch The budget is nineteen point one One billion dollars is three out of a thousand millions of dollars that it basically pays He's in the queue, but he leaves. guide with the minimalist money deferred of three point seven thousand millions of dollars So when they do the budget This, if it's not going to be a, it's going
070to be a future cost of the department finance type that in the two twenty-three the state it's going to start having imbalances structural budgets if not pay now then when we have the money and we wait and they can't Don't think that you'll give us the money the people who give them the loans don't go wanting them to eventually be resolved These obligations. That's why we have to fight for that and make sure that it is Pay up and then we have the incentive to In-person instruction is two thousand millions of dollars I criticize this a bit because number one uses two billion dollars no We think there is enough money in those one billion dollars to pay cover analysis we think that It should be paid for with healthcare money. or money that is
071going to arrive that is going to to deliver the presidency of the Biden administration, this governor It certainly has a close relationship with the new administration If a budget of two thousand is proposed millions of dollars for teaching and is spent on analysis of covid and the governor said he has the intention to open schools in the first hundred days because We spend money only when The dollars are coming from Washington DC The president has requested three hundred fifty billion dollars for state and local governments for Use this according to the previous plan that the amount was approved the proposal that was being considered when Pelosi and the Democrats They had, were proposing, were proposing 160 billion dollars the government the governor three hundred fifty billion dollars is proposing even assuming they give it to
072him There will be a lot of money for half of it. use the governor we would receive roughly ten percent to pay for this, but I'm going to talk in I want to talk about the next slide a little bit about This is going to be very controversial. Rules are constantly changing, I'm not... I'm sure that's what they've decided. You do in the district Les I recommend being careful what you wish for. They receive this money, I think they're going to have many more costs than they will can they to provide you in terms monetary if you put yourselves in the line up and maybe they'll give them that money It works, but that's a risk. I think the rules would have to be followed. The governor met yesterday for the tomorrow with the group
073of superintendents and spoke also, also of doing a little more flexible the the topics of the the the I don't think the analysis has been said afterwards We have the four point six thousand millions of dollars of mitigation in teaching and intervention me They like it because it will give them a lot discretion to you regarding what models of expanded learning, be it summer Longer day, longer year different models to deal with this gap in the loss of teaching as long as it's flexible, it gives them a lot discretion, those types of resources are There are important people who criticize This is because if they didn't mark it, then... They marked them, in fact, they would reach them you The difference is that when They arrive at a purpose like this Some have been closer
074than others These categorical programs They're not usually on the table so The problem is not solved. at the negotiating table You will have summer programs learning You'll want to give this to them. to the staff. So it's important to bring all this on the table when you I think they should negotiate with the union. that we have to I knew he used to be the banker So you might see it otherwise And another thing I want to talk to you about It's from the work that has been done in recent years with the funds complete in the campaign what did the legislators and the governor when he launched his campaign, he launched his campaign with Governor Brown even the budget from the previous summer and they did nothing for the foundation of school funds in
075California, but they did this very important payments additional that The governor did what he promised. governor not only on the issue budgetary he said the funds in California has to adjust towards We need to make that commitment at the top. He promised us a budget that would give one point five percent of the State budget above mt until reaching twelve point five thousand millions of dollars and the 38% guarantee of funds general fund at forty percent of general fund at this time In this budget that he just presented retracts in fact it was approved by law is the law. So when the governor does two weeks He suggested we not do it; he has that provide repeal the law that does What he expects is the distraction We're doing better than expected. We thought you
076saw last summer these other things that we are going to focus on this topic and we have to Let's focus on this topic because it's the only that significant for dealing with the funds which will have implications for The devil is very deep, these are the key topics and then I'll talk Let's talk a little bit about federal issues On the next slide, one thing that I mentioned the allocation approach We all need to be aware of the the fact that you receive money from title one and they have to share a sum of money The subsidies are not in the formula as such. deep down how to be big winners with regard to these approaches for to finance the districts this disproportion is only calibrated for You know about children in poverty. first hand
077that all children Our children have needs now. That this should incline towards the poor. Okay, but create other formulas so that In the long run, we see all the money and none are sent to increase the The base only goes to four poor or needy children the indices that drive part of that Money is a bad thing, we have to lend attention to ensure they They set aside funds elsewhere to balance nature disproportionate to the money that is Going out in some of these areas I'm going to I think maybe we should talk a little. should stop here for a second if you Do you have any questions about any of them? about the state deficit I spoke about Yes, I was going to suggest that, to see if We could ask questions, I can't
078see them everyone on screen now so by Please turn on your microphones if you have them. I wonder if I have any questions. When are we going to now? That's all speculation when in fact we are going to Having real numbers. Good when Let's receive more information and That's called the May Amendment. This year we will not have any delays For tax returns, that goes to be on April 15th and they will probably go I think that having very precise numbers There is an opportunity that the amendment will to be higher in this January forecast for the reasons I mentioned We also see the stock market that continues to behave the way it has been doing I'm not no I don't see Why wouldn't it be that way? We can have larger numbers than we
079have now once again what it really is It's important to know that larger numbers does not mean Thank you so much for all of this. This means we're going to have to deal with with these systemic problems that do not They are operating on the budget of Now perhaps that would be the solution some of those problems very good ask Any other questions? Thank you Linda Medio. Thank you for your comment. Regarding deferred payments, and if they are going to continue from here What bothers me the most, and perhaps You can talk a little more. sir, with what we have to take out that there are no payments early. So we don't have to pay interest no matter what no matter what happens with the budget in November The bipartisan commission said we have to
080alleviate the cost of loans to through the deferred money when the Governor presents the budget in January, I think the reason why decided not do nothing with the deferred money before that it was implemented because of the cost The money is low and we would have had the cost of a loan regardless of what So the other thing is wheat, the trick of The governor is implementing the funds deferred and pay them when the fiscal year to make that transaction He actually creates a little bit of money as a backup in case something goes wrong Something can happen; COVID is an example. excellent and he didn't that balance three point seven million Dollars don't comfort us when we It assumes that everything has to be alright. But one doesn't feel that very good. I have
081another question about... It seems that the deferred funds Well, the smart thing would have been to remove the deferred funds before celebrating the agreement which could happen all had occurred at the beginning of January but Now we are advocating that he pay for it. this year, but we didn't find out until We already committed to that in January. Is there any way we can remove the Deferred money from this year is not part because of what I said The cost of a loan is unavoidable It was probably approved taking into account what we We were facing, it's very small but the They should advocate around these three point seven billion dollars that That's nonsense because you're going to be responsible for that money AND You will have deferred payments on Next year they will have
082to again cover it until it has been paid and not That's not good. When they pay for it, they can... pay it to us including our Costs, that's a reasonable question. We would never have done this if we would have had the forecast economic That would be great. That's a very good point you're making. presenting Because those are miners of general fund discretionary money that They can be used for other purposes I think it would be reasonable to say that the The state would have to find a way to make us compensate ourselves for that, to me What worries me is that they're not going to pay all the deferred money that they They'll find a way to say it I'm sorry Charlie, we're just going to give you a correct part and I think
083that's one very real possibility if they don't do it They get into that situation when they have These deficits where they have these structural deficits as I mentioned They project for 2023 by Yes, I spoke with the president of budget subcommittee Let them remember that he was president from the committee's budget of the legislature's budget went He has just returned to the Senate of the Coast central he knows everything about being budget president seems to now He will be president of the committee of Senate Education It's very good, I think we have a good one an opportunity that the legislature will not tolerate This and say let's pay the debts first before creating a program of we have to six billion dollars stabilize the foundation first and Then we'll see how much we can spend
084on the other programs, but let's go There's a lot to be done using Federal money Frankly, I have some questions about that. the directive I made He answered the question I had. when she asked the question board member, this happens every year in January and In May and June, the governor and the The legislature is asked to negotiate and that the middle member said I don't feel that the legislature is going to along the governor's road governor's budget the two Cameras are there and I had one conversation today with the president of educational committee and we were talking I thought both of them comic It's one of the things everyone says that we should do we should practice politics based on In good science, the problem is that We also have political science and Since
085we know that, we already know what it's like. legislator He has already heard the proposals of the legislature, think of it this way if You implement a testing regime that It's very expensive. because it was a demand from our friends in teachers' unions and I understand absolutely because they want it They did it because they were asked, and one spends all the money and does all the efforts and creates all these rules and one never He gets them to support him because he doesn't So why would they announce something when He has no support from anyone, and yet he has everything. What kind of problems do we get? Then the I support you, show me that package, let's see. What's happening? Because the objective has to do one thing safely and another I wanted to
086say quickly when I was talking to the tail that doesn't cover the Categorical programs It is only one piece of the budget is not something that we see the general public every year Look at the queue, our employees say. only pass it down the percentage of That's the percentage they should be giving us. Give a raise. But I never see it that way. form because it never covers everything in the budget and we can never explain it How is it that it doesn't apply to the public? Cola at one hundred percent it's true I think they should do something different with probably at least in three in ten categorical programs They receive the cola as special education To some extent, that's what we deal with. every year with this fight They told me we should
087give the tail to These areas also Senator Lee seems to be reading our I'm sure there are still McCarthys going on. to also be the same, on the same side and We will be in communication with him Thanks too We continued. Yes, I realized that the The meeting wouldn't have to take so long dealing with this topic quickly I say this is a glimpse of money that has been required to put In context, it's six point seven billion. That's for children. kindergarten through twelve and what I wanted Telling them specifically is that when we had six point eight million dollars in the spring and you Some money arrived and it was a good thing. amount of money but when They received the money last spring They received the money from four bags. one of the
088bags of money was different He distributed a lot of money based on his This special population. So another money bag based on the number of What kind of guys do you have in certain groups that were distributed based on the Title One this time that money before It was 6.8, now it's 6. Seven is distributed exclusively for The title one will be given less money, what they did before, so it's very important for our community and our friends from the union of that there is this figure that seems similar But our part won't be that big as we think, we have to to know, but we have to go in knowing that everyone is going to think that Ah You are loaded with money, what are you not? It was just as much as last
089year, the other one. An announcement that doesn't help us is that a great number of publications Antonio told him about this, I can They reported that they are given it four times more money than last year in the spring spent four times more than the That program only gave them one bag The four of them gave him the money the time The smallest one was called e ssir and it's for elementary schools and secondary laws for a law of That support is number two. It's important to know that that bag of money is four times larger than the small but not the most money in Last year's total this time is six points seven billion was six point eight a billions, not even the state He's giving it his all, it's all about The distribution
090needs to be looked at very closely. closely now money than the other money that the government handles that a a large portion of this, like four hundred millions of dollars, like or three hundred eighty million, a lot of that goes to the private schools that serve boys who poor Catholic schools or that schools that have poor children go to receive that money, so there will be one hundred and thirty million or so that the The state has more than enough to distribute to anything from kindergarten to Advanced education. How much are we going to get? They haven't yet decided how much we'll give. They're going to give us the other thing we found out today. that the government is considering not asking the money he doesn't really have Because someone is. pressuring him not to
091go to money that is dedicated to the school Private schools receive a lot of money. public. But that would not be. beneficial, so any money that Give California free, that's what it is It is useful for children, especially children. It's unbelievable that he doesn't want to apply it. to them, but that's there. And for the stimulus money says they're going to be money for the State First, it's for the schools. it is proposed of 130 million for education in Superior and three hundred and fifty billions for States for California the Chairman of the board of the consulting firm The Education consultant was education. And that doesn't send us in the title one but they give to the latitude to the State to be able to distribute that all districts benefit and There may be a
092focus for poor children But we need to make sure that money from That magnitude needs to reach everyone. the children and that will help them to you too, so you have already given what the day is about today and that we have to do what we know I can try to shed light on the figures for the meeting when they are interested that we help them with that Thank you very much, sir. This was very good information not only for us but also decisions but also for the public to be able to understand as a system the How The system works, and within that system We are at the moment. Thank you very much. Mr. Golgi, thank you very much. It's a pleasure. Very good. Now let's move on to number twelve. zero point the

099love science this week on Tuesday we heard that federal officials They announced that they want the children return to in-person classes as soon as possible as soon as possible depending on certain mitigation protocols because there is a preponderance of evidence that can do in-person education if it is that controls are maintained as social distancing and everything else too They will impose limits in other environments like, let's say gyms in bars and restaurants I wanted to tell you that people Just read those parts. limitations, but that's a minor detail. important and speaking of science public health department of California issued more detailed guidelines in order to be able to open them safely schools and there they are talking about the fourth September 14, boys and two adults but this document of 52 pages It has to

102on How help students and children For parents: How to get to know the advisors and so that they know what I would like my parents to need this. to reiterate now that I remembered Last year, when we realized that we weren't going back to school and I realized He says that certain things were falling behind schedule. students and They fall behind compared to what it is We're all in the same boat as them. Students should know that everyone These are the ratings made by the humans but when they return to the Schools have to keep the teachers following teaching they have to to give to allow oneself some thanks to the students and teachers because we are all suffering this Tomorrow we had to have fifty-five thousand and peak in Costa against which it has

110ten, I think It is the bill number a b And it was presented by the deputy Clean focuses exclusively on the reopening of schools including it also presented it The deputy is putting the legislature priority on this in the reopening of Schools are another matter I also took the Health webinar Mental on Monday, very good to see from from the point of view of those of the advisors I spoke with Dr. Clark about this. how is it that the students They are suffering from the point of view of Mental Health this week pass how is that the Sacramento School District approved a resolution to include Mental Health when we talk about Mental Health There is an appreciation for this topic. Hopefully, that will relieve the stress to talk about that when we talk about providing
111resources to the School District we need advisors And I know that with the idea the leadership of El Superintendent Clark, I know that's going to continue This definition needs to be expanded and to acknowledge that it is so bad for your health mental state of students as a illness, it could be, I'm going to work on it So, in the next few days weeks months Then I talked a little bit about civic participation that we want to carry out as District Develop the criteria for that, so I'll update them on that and also I hope this is working with a cluster a promise of participation civic putting priority on student civic participation information about our democracy and also We are doing it, we are in the process Good news for all parents those who are

Thank you. Thank you all for your efforts with As for me, I spent
113the last two weeks listening to many perspectives different from our District There are many different perspectives. The spectrum we see there first we have in the highest indexes that we have seen personal families staff from our community who have experienced the trauma of deaths in We are also listening to your family. of the staff on the staff in the the place in the administrators' offices food secretaries the fear that people have every time It's there, exposed to the public, people who education is the driving force distance learning We've been involved in everything, no matter what. There are also families at the level of COVID that... feel that the students are suffering from isolation from distance learning depression Many have had suicidal thoughts contacted us asking that we open the schools They're saying that COVID is
114spreading. Very little in schools, but I think that one thing What we all agree on is that the Vaccines are a key part of the solution: vaccinate the employees of the schools would immediately help public schools to continue with the distance learning and support community support that is provided and also Opening schools safely I communicated with board presidents country directives from the County letter to the department of health the board of supervisors for to ensure that all educators of against Costa Especially those who They work in the sessions and have access to the vaccine from the cover and that they provide communication of how the Health workers have to receive the vaccine also They will sign the letter as an organization. tomorrow everyone They can go to the meeting at half past five with a

117lot from the book That's all regarding what I had to say a question about the letter we As a board we have discussed that. made a decision When will that be in the our District's agenda to be put to talk The process is normally the representative obtains the opinion of the board and then it allows you to firm and we haven't discussed it properly I asked our lawyers about That's because this came up on the last day So there was no time for Added, add it within 72 hours to the agenda The lawyer said that, like this letter has a specific disclosure that says that the people who sign it It does not mean a vote of the board school that there is no legal requirement of That's it, but I wanted to say here

If you could please... Show in PowerPoint Thanks Next slide I wanted to show you This is because I set myself the goal of being transparent make sure we are communicating with our in our parts interested and that the schools the administrators the employees have access to communicate with family So we have A few months ago, like district host I and others have had access to graphs like this that show Our progress, as you can see, gives us a total count of all students that we have the staff members who mail with their emails and so at least one parent who represents
121each One of our students here is It tells us that 95% of the population Our total can be contacted. So If you look in the middle we can see that the parents with whom we can contact and those who cannot contact and then there are some who We have no contact information and Then we can see the languages of the family that uses the family for the updates next slide This is like They know that one can assign and receive receive emails and messages from text or use the app and receive messages in the app this us sample How many parents are giving information by email texts and through the application as they can most of the family are seeing using text messages once We want to help each other more than just we are
122sending information about some very important things good things about Prime Square that can receive information from the parents not only the directors but the teachers can talk [Music] all communications about things that They are happening at school in class So I'm very pleased with this It was just a few months ago. we're using Square but the The expectation is that this is going to be a number one in the main tool of communication with our family next slide the has twelve functions we are using in Mouse Diablo seven functions this graph shows the publications nine zero nine two thousand six hundred direct messages that they send a week to the family questions about tasks or things that They are happening at school, we have the ability to receive alerts smart alerts reminders activities events on
123the calendar we have photos that file sharing also one once again, in general, a demonstration of Square's next uses experience slide You can. I made sure this was small so as not to have too much competition between our schools but Yes, it basically shows the schools. They're using more, so I'm going to show the first five that the one who Green Valley and and Ignacio Gaby Those are the ones that the first five schools as Superintendent, my expectation is communicate regularly to communicate regularly with our family provide assistance and a so that everyone can adopt We also have some schools in Square. or teachers or principals who use other platforms but Our goal is that all transition to Pent Square I just wanted to mention that. update on communication We sent a letter on Friday
124of the superintendent's office that they sends all interested parties by email and it also gets put in our website and it's there my moral memorialized on the page of superintendent of the following slide a very important topic about which we have The talk has been about reopening schools that students return to our campus We have received all emails electronics I just want to talk for a few minutes. about this Where are we? the superintendent as superintendent And as an educator, nothing matters more to me than the students return to schools I've said this ever since I arrived here District The decision was made in the summer I'm learning remotely I wanted to implement a model hybrid and I still feel it over time I still support that The staff knows that every day I spend
125my time reading, talking, listening observing And it's all cover, that's my day, every single one days the notion that the district did not Does he have a plan or is he not prepared? We're thinking about this, I'm just going to assume that this It comes from people who are tired this pandemic and that he is advocating for their children and support them one hundred percent I understand the negative effects of not Being in school, mental health, that the students are affected Families and staff, we all suffer Therefore, however, we are working to continue supporting the students even though we are in In the midst of a global pandemic, I want to be It's very clear that we've had a deficiency Government Leadership There has been no message from the Federal government. consistent or lacks support,
126be politicized if You put on a face mask, you are line with a match if The face mask is aligned with another party there is information that It has spread, it has been very difficult for school districts and boards to make well-informed decisions as we have heard in the previous presentations the guidelines They keep changing We have the governor's budget. from the public health department of California the CDC update continues changing months ago we were debating and the Students should wear face masks We are now debating If not, we should just do it to him analysis of all employees but That also applies to all students. would cost over one million dollars per month This It was months ago when we started to evaluate this one million dollars to test all students and to all
127the employees, but now the price has dropped considerably, however if we had signed a contract with these suppliers we would have still owes this amount of dollars as guidelines change the numbers Then when it changes as the leadership, we are the ones who We left those of us who remained, giving the image that we don't know what's happening because we continually receive We expect different information then that with the new administration and with his clear commitment to fight fight this pandemic that we can continue along this path towards the Reopening Meanwhile in November before the holidays of the of the days before taking the day break Thanksgiving We allow students to come to collect supplies from schools participate in the meetings language exams Psychological exams could be performed at campuses to take part in those
128We also agreed to hold meetings January 26 St meetings also that students they could participate in meetings once more volunteers for staff the students They can do it, and we have too. The students have been practicing this they can Go here to participate in activities athletic extracurriculars or programs childcare this this agreement was made on our website Below the latest news answers to Coby 19 next I simply want to show this slide. A photo that speaks tells me my words. This is one of the entrances to one of our PS sites there is there alcohol gel gloves, there are wipes an area to register as we bring in the students to the campus and we're going to have many stations like these next slide This is what it was As it was yesterday. Come to
129the left. We were talking about six feet, that is, six. feet Then How do we bring the students back? to our schools Always we're going to have to set the distance of six feet until the guidelines change guidelines, but the guidelines are very clear Six feet. We need to have then a model hybrid because we can't make it enter 30 or 28 students in a classroom with six feet from a distance to the left they see the preparation of PSD and to the right I would have to say for the administrators who viewed this You were thrilled when you saw this because these students They are working No, it's not fun to take the PS at but there wasn't a single issue of no problem with students using All these students are wearing face masks.
130They wore face masks during the exams and when we went to the parking lot and They were socializing around their Vehicles maintained their distance and They left their masks on, I want to say it was personal to support these students the classified personnel who supervised to these exam sites But basically it was personal. next ranked slide so this is on the left in College Park again Six feet all classes we could bring back the students for a full day But we can't do it because we have Separating them, that's how it was back then The students arrived specifically I personally went to finalize it and that day 50 students taking the exam next slide It was mentioned before, now what are we going to do? purple level athletic activities they can begin We're going to
131start the practices this week and next week Cross country tennis This is a notification from cif next slide The district coaches have done I mean, during the summer these The coaches are amazing. if we multiply the time that Those who invested are the ones who get paid except in the district to those who They pay less and provide a service amazing service There are many students here stretching is not the night The boys are wearing face masks It is very important for these to happen events When we hold these meetings athletic activities extracurricular activities can arrive to test the systems we have protocols that the settings when there is a theme contact tracing They know the expectations The coaches have trained it we are doing this daily during in the entire district, however, still We
132need to do more. There are so many. unanswered questions that we are trying to figure it out. So I want Highlighting this, which is something wonderful what is happening in our district and I'm sure this is happening So, we're talking like this. that These are our metrics county a week ago we were at one hundred and five new cases per one hundred thousand at the state level Here in the county we were sixty cases per hundred thousand if you remember when the board approved the reopening plan and we were in a County metric of five cases For so you can see how it has exploded and so It's what it looked like a week ago without However, the next slide by Please, but Yes, there is light at the end of the tunnel because there
133is good things are starting to happen of the new leadership that I told you about new approaches we have the vaccine that already It's on the horizon and the figures are Starting to go down. This was from yesterday, like They can see what I showed them Previously, a week ago, I was in one hundred and five now seventy-one in the county we were at 60 now we are at forty-four So let's hope that continue to improve what we don't want We don't want to rush things again. It's my responsibility giving the recommendation to the board are not neither the unions nor the parents neither personal nor in classes but This is about my responsibility as superintendent I take this responsibility very seriously seriously, and I want to make sure that Let's have a system that
134can verify that safe and effective again we has left with three hundred schoolchildren in the in the in the state to navigate this by on our own. So there is no There is no open data to the contrary. no district in Alameda County at the moment I know we've talked about naps. heard from Napa and districts that are They are opening in Marin County I can go online and I can find articles that support the that opens and articles that little by little don't open yet, so I I understand that; I understand the families. that are receiving messages mixed, whether from the government previous or what they read and see in the newspaper in the daily newspaper or on different web pages, it depends Where they receive the news from. This is what that we
135are following in the midst of the global pandemic still There are many new strains of Coby that they are mutating of the virus. So I'm still taking this very seriously I'm not downplaying this, I know that There are many people who believe that tomorrow Are we going to open the schools or just barely exit, it's in red, let's open. It's not It's not as easy as it sounds, it's more complicated, and I'm going to... make sure that we Let's do everything possible to make sure we're going to put all the i's and the three in the letters for not to miss anything to avoid this spread of this very serious disease I got this from the health department against Costa updates it on the website I was spending a day, but yesterday They had 93,023,500
136thirty-one vaccines that were administered the countercost seventy-eight thousand were in the first doses and fourteen thousand of They were the second doses of the vaccine So eight point five percent of the population sixteen years without majors have already received their first dose and one point six of the population have received your second dose So the vaccinations and the Vaccines are arriving, but we we found out that they did not articulate at the Federal level with the States they were not communicating the Federal Government with the State and the State with the county by That's what we're hearing. That several counties are seeing the vaccine educators people over 65 years old People in nursing homes, everything is Confusing. How can we plan? properly when the information that is gives us is totally disjointed So I'm happy
137to be able to tell you that the The state has already taken charge of the program So he says he's not going to get vaccinated That will now be the task of the counties. It's great to be on a program clear about how vaccines are given to our communities the employees and in certain cases it depends on age. students too so I'm not saying we're waiting until Everyone should be vaccinated because still So vaccination remains voluntary. or not, so it's very difficult give a statement that this has to to definitely pass before Come, let the boys come to school, what What has to happen is that having reliable and consistent information for to be able to open schools safely last week a week ago We had another agreement that we could Start early with small
138groups It is small support groups To do this, we need to find out what study I study. Students need this, we have to focus on students who are from foster homes that are young and like I've said this, this disease, no. It discriminates, everyone is suffering and attacks everyone. So with this administration we are going to identify the Students, we're going to invite them and we're going to group them and put them in groups of Support is voluntary for students And for the staff again we have that we cannot try to solve this Just saying "that's it" isn't enough. We are developing the program We are working but these are positive steps that are in the address as you can see from the agreement that We did, we have to follow certain measures and protocols
139when it comes to What level are we at? So this The agreement is eight pages long. I got a couple of phrases from the contract. so they can read it, but they can read it on our website the entire contract or the agreement that is on the website of Coby's response The reopening date. We always go to look at the County metrics still They're not there, so Yes, if we move to the red level tomorrow Does that mean we're going to open? No, no. That means because we still have The disease that is widespread is very It's contagious, people are dying from it Many people are sick with this disease. And I know that many of the things have been said students that the students are not dying from Covid, however, not yet we fully
140understand the full consequences of what happens when the students and the Students do catch the disease, no They are immune to the virus. They may not be. form at the same pace that people who already have illnesses existing but yes still yes They are contagious, we need the constant federal guidelines and So all the guides that have come out have been discussed by the staff we have analyzed we have put plans in We have enlisted, but the march The guidelines keep changing. The latest is that each person, the staff, and each The student is going to be... It's going to be... test every two weeks And that's something we can't guarantee. at this moment that that is, well be We cannot guarantee it. That, and most likely that guide will go to change again because
141many people is sharing the measures security These measures have been transparent Here, since summer, it's distances social distancing, masks and disinfectants we are in the process of also the We are changing the ventilation. leaks, tests, and vaccines We're already working on that, we have it. to see how all this is going to turn out and the family commitments hybrid or learning schedules distance I was ready to do the polls in November for November and December that commit to one system or the other Parents said they wanted more information and make sure that the student has the same teacher and They're in the same school, I put a The schedule reflected that, although I put the One schedule for elementary school and another for... Secondary school people needed more information and unfortunately there is other steps
142to take before drinking that information is finalized, yes that when the time comes absolutely that we already have the The surveys are ready and we're going to ask them to the parents who make the commitment or They are in the system hybrid or not and so? That's going to happen to us very soon. said at the meeting on January 13th when it was I told him that one item on the agenda was... We were in distance learning. At least until March. So again There's no reason to put it in the agenda tonight we're going to talk now We've talked every day, I talk to him. with the staff and we are having negotiations all day tomorrow scheduled for tomorrow, so these Causes are occurring, I meet with everyone all day long these this more than
143It's all for the audience; I get together with all board members for one hour every week, mostly We talked about the reopening, what it will be like How do we open? What is the district all those matters mind we're not working all day, but This is not the time to open the schools tomorrow next slide I want to briefly talk about the We put four in the Mental Health webinar questions for the panel and we wanted Having information from the panel on how They may find opportunities social services for the children How can we get support for the social, mental and emotional well-being How to use district resources I can help them academically a lot Students are falling behind academically. So they want to know how they can provide academic support There are many students.
144students who are experiencing a lack of Motivation during the pandemic and what it's like that the families and the guardians and guardians can help them participate more in classes These were the panelists who said We had advisors from all over the three levels elementary, middle and high school counselors We understand the effects of Covid impact negatively to communities of color We had a psychologist and a worker We had a social specialist behavior and also the consultant of Career and College Advisor a very diverse panel will be coming to the school In the coming weeks we will use different people who specialize A little more on this to continue providing support for our families that we know are all the families are struggling battling that we all have that our styles of Life has been drastically
145changed I want to finish with something positive about what is happening life at school In middle school it was a challenge to kindness every day of the week then These are some of the reminders of why we are In this profession, they are trying to to unleash the goodness of the children of good works of things of things good things that can happen to the boys that positively impact the lives of I like seeing this a lot, other people. This is the beautification of I really like seeing how the garden will look. How will it turn out? But again We love seeing the progress they've made. Made in the backyard.

However to any The point can be removed at the request of member And that can be done
150We have some topics to discuss. to remove or is there any motion to consent Exactly, a motion that we accept the agenda the consent of the agenda as they have presented it fruitful So there is an emotion. Because of the Mrs. Mason and Mrs. Mello we're going to begin with the board member to the facts Yeah Yes, I also vote yes, so the The motion goes from five to zero with all the member participation now Continuing we have 17 point zero seventeen point one is the review and possible approval of the report William Lee by January 31, 2021 Are there any questions about Williams' report I have a question how the district uses reports because more than anything it's a list of control to help us understand what people can complain about As or has
151used could use the eastern district community reports to inform you that the one who is It's bad to tell them that it's not happening evil When something is wrong, we are there. all together to do the changes whatever system is necessary The board is saying that This is the report format for report that we have to submit in a public meeting But these complaints come in the form of ifs Is it a work order or a complaint? official or policy had or if We have a process for submitting a Williams report complaint I want that Explain more or less what it is. process of the William report but I want to remind you that you They are looking at the squad we have that to submit to the state or county yes doctor in the
152year There was a lawsuit and what the court It was decided that each School District I needed to have a process when There were questions about materials. instruction and when there were issues staffing problems and at that time had to do with high school exams sometimes When there are complaints about this material school textbooks and most importantly to be transparent with the public so that they know quarterly if there has There has been a complaint or a claim Williams have indeed appeared. It seems there were two in the last one quarter was a complaint but two One problem was the credential of a teacher if the person had the credential of life for the material that They were teaching. Oh yes, the students. They had the appropriate textbooks and We'll take these complaints then This
153is being taken to the staff and with us we spoke with human resources and that they did have the credentials correct and that the books did have them of correct texts when there is a complaint after the investigation we We ensure that the research and the resolutions be in writing and it We send the complaint again or a That demand is sent to the county and each The County office makes visits every year physical campuses and checks that the facilities are good that they have the appropriate books and that the teachers have the licenses and be certified Thanks, that helps a lot. That's great because then when If we have any questions, we need to Look at that Williams report. I know that one. report is a template But the details are very useful. Thank
154you Any other questions or comments on this? so For action, one must do that it be approved that the report of Williams quarterly report for January 31 It goes from five to zero with the agreement of the school administrators often when we receive the report are everyone, so there isn't much information but in this case because of Unless there was some information. Always They can ask questions 17.2 They said that the possible approval of contract between the School District of Monte hablo y fv de tutoría para dar a support for language students English for students aged six to twelve I want to give this to him to which there are questions Well, first of all, is there any Ask if there are any questions. I have the right department that can answer those questions if
155not There are questions. So maybe not me. I have a question I thought there was a presentation with this The agenda description says that is it for him or for the District of Identify the students who are failing if we want to know if it is because of the language, because they are Students learning English are of income that are failing or are all students [Music] I didn't give a presentation because All the information was attached. the board folder is an initiative of bilingual students in the language department and it's going to be paid with categorical funds from the title three and it will be only for the English students that I was clarifying because it said there or the students who are failing and identified by the district did not know if it was
156among the students English or for everyone, not just for those in English. English students because it comes from the Title Three funds that are funds categorical for students of English Another question is, I've heard of teachers even my own daughter who was forced to go at the hours at the hours from office to students who have to Going to the office now? How will you have more? This is a success that teachers can offer we're going to have The students will be able to Let's go for help with homework. to identify student groups who are having difficulties in their classes [Music] those who were receiving many hours tutoring to help them improve their ratings one of the reasons why which we chose this company is because they will provide support with families in getting them
157involved the families and they will contact them. so that students can participate Is there any way that what might be we can use the classified character to get in touch with the family As I said, the teachers are offering its time but This is for students who are battling I'm curious, we're investing in getting involved in families so that students can participate with their own teachers in relation This project is going to have a distribution Regarding your question about the parental involvement all parts have different resources how they participate and how they involve their family one It is the community link who work with families on his side but That varies from school to school You asked him He asked the teachers and the parents, if this program would help the students [Music] She knows
158that we talk about it with Pilar every day years I put a certain amount of money into the intervention and usually it was to give to schools and depending on the schools, some teachers Some offered private lessons, and others did not. so it wasn't not everyone was receiving the same So this year I support We see teachers who are very stressed with the online thing so I couldn't launch private lessons with the teachers. So I looked for a service external and I did research on which companies there had in fact I evaluated two companies, one on paper and one in person. paper the other fv shooters and I selected fvturers because they provided more support not only do they have the capacity to provide help at home but also help with homework, but also if
159you makes particular ones aligned with what we are teaching So he Dilac wanted to be a private tutor in I said I wanted additional support. for students [Music] I had no way of getting those. those teachers and Dr. Clark He attended some meetings and showed statistics of those who are learning English the percentages that They were failing and we have in the We don't have funds in the district for those who learn English specifically to back them up, that's why I took that decision of Selecting this new one is an initiative new for us and we'll see how much success We have something that I found very... The attractive thing is that we are going to to have a coach, a two people and that one is going to send us information A lot of
160information is needed and one of the companies that evaluates That's why they didn't provide those services. I chose this company additionally We did film an agreement. I want to see how will this agreement benefit to the students of this district The company gave us a suspension of one thousand. hours above what we buy and The other company didn't want to do anything. extra for us so That was another reason. Yes, my questions weren't. They have a lot to do with why he chose not this company, but why choose this? Now for something else that I heard in the webinar of the reopening is what we have to find flexible opportunities for the Adults help the students because The teachers have been working hard. throughout the pandemic and to this day Always, but the teachers work
161very hard. I feel that Teachers are tired of Zoom Being online makes me wonder if there are any consideration of using programs during the summer when everyone is resting ten twelve hours during the summer with the students who have difficulties in line now day by day Maybe not. I suppose it's for everyone, but it could be more effective because they don't have to compete for that particular class per hour with the Daily zoom pressure was my last resort My last comment: we have a situation where the students are They're failing and we have to to provide support to this group of students and we're going to use the hours provided we have the time. We see that it is effective, we can buy more hours but we need support students who those who are not
162doing well that situation It was not conducive to the classes private individuals in person because only we could have a one-on-one and we don't have that capacity of The teachers didn't want to come to the al campus So we had to find another way To support students To be clear, I am not against supporting students Not at all because I think having other adults are able to Helping the helpers seems very helpful to me. good in the districts even volunteers I was simply curious if we had explored offering that in the summer because people are tired of Zoom and It could be a more focused time and In a different conversation, I think that the students They shouldn't be receiving grades now. because receiving an F wouldn't help them But during the summer I think
163the point It is learning absorption understanding build knowledge I value that now, that it's a help. need the students at this time What works, what doesn't work I think the company you mentioned the students And I wonder if this would be successful. Kobe funds to use other funds I like that this company be focused on connecting with the family You can send a text to this number We need that relationship. that connection with the family and there seems to be some other approach comment question I do have one Yes ma'am, I thank you for the information but Individuals have accreditations that all the teachers are going to conduct a background check I think that Mrs. Mason and I always We look for that information in the documents information They indicated that it is important that
164it parents should know and the lady's comment that students can be Tired of Zoom because I think this is going It will be different because it will be done by hand. The hand can serve a virtual purpose in addition to texts My experience with teenagers Especially teenagers, They are awake at two or three o'clock whenever morning comes, and this service would be available to them twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week the week It's surprising when Sometimes that surprises us when the Students decide to do their homework, that's it It would be an opportunity for measure How often? How many hours? Are they on? students awake to achieve the work they have to do for a A variety of reasons, I think the other thing is that maybe What's interesting to me is that
165it's possible record that interaction with the students So maybe Mrs. Garces, the department can research this and find good ones examples of how these students They work with the teachers I say how. How interact with students I'm interested in trying this as a pilot. My question was whether these are like this. federal dollars. If we didn't spend them they would have to return us We've had 18 depending on the funds eighteen months to spend that money and we never want to return money As Mrs. Garces said, the plan our original era making having teachers after the classes so that they could provide one-on-one support with students in that provide that additional interaction with the individual or with We have bilingual parents but They don't feel comfortable providing that level of feedback so to make that
166individual help them We support the student but also the family with available resources For them, it's the support of the second. language the first language as they become bilingual home support we believe that It would be important in these times Thank you, we have a motion. Yes, I I hereby submit a motion to approve the contract between the Mao School District devil and this event to provide support to the students from grade six through grade twelve so they're studying English Mason supports the motion, and there is some another conversation Okay, let's vote. directive wings yes directly It lost sound again, yes, well, I I also vote yes, the motion is approved five zero with the support of the board to Ah, she forgot about Mason Mason also gets a five-zero now. Thank you. I appreciate
