Hello, I'm Victor and I'm in my penultimate year at mon high school and I would like to talk about the cell phone policy, I mean that I want to add my voice to what the others Students said about politics I don't think it's necessary, I don't correct to spend your resources by not allow this device The only ones affected by technology are the Those who abuse the system will always find the ways to use them, for example, to avoid This will use this designated place in the classroom students can to say that they forgot their phone in house but they really have it then those who are punished by the Those who follow the rules are the ones who obey the rules.

026I also think that the time that is going to This monitoring of politics can be done use for other things, for example the vaping the use of substances in the schools, those are harmful to the students and all students who They're using it, they're abusing it, and that's not right. This is necessarily the case with the cell phones, substance abuse and vaping causes students who They comply with the rules, they feel uncomfortable in the school place So I encourage you to prioritize the substance abuse instead of the cell phone restrictions next The speaker is Neil fishman Good evening Thank you very much for This is me, Neil Fishman.

LGBTQ and that reminds us that the discrimination and marginalization sometimes They have a flap, for example, the LGBTQ students who are also students of color or backgrounds Various religious groups have more difficulties that resolution states that Students deserve protection without fear of being bullied I hate protea students of marginalized communities and ensures that Those behaviors are unacceptable in I am grateful for our schools. the resolution And this is the uncertainty they face. students no family needs It's choosing between security,

028education, and Schools must protect the spaces for everything. Also This is the policy regarding hate speech. For example, antisemitism and bullying The religious community champions equality.

029the dac the The subcommittee had to give them those changes. tonight but other members They recognized and drew attention some serious deficits and others problems that are still in the There are also political problems because There are no last-minute edits. I can get all the tiles ready in 2 minutes Some of the changes affect the students' civil rights and it provides more space for the police than in a school they would have at a station police as a result of pressure from deliver That's why we decided to send them tonight. changes and some notes I don't think that That's enough. What's so urgent? We need to finish this right now. when it comes to civil rights We need to do the right thing the first time. Try not to do the worst thing by doing

030it quickly. we live in a in a season with many threats to the safety of schools And what can happen is that a student suspected of doing something wrong, can suffer questions without being informed or without being able to exercise their rights civilians, that's not part of the district. which I want to be a part of.

033certainly happened last night. They omitted certain facts and certain things They presented opinions and not real events and some of the issues They definitely discussed it during the questions from those who attended that They expressed concerns about the narrative to one side that is supposedly shared to educate our students about this issue I can imagine that someone must have checked the facts that were sharing, but we didn't have much. previous information about this antisemitism is already an event problem in the district and I ask the board that investigates the materials and how it is presented in the classroom and how the topic is discussed in the classroom thank you thank you The next speaker tonight is Dikla.

034the Israel and Palestine event Organized by Flo King, the new director of diversity and inclusion selection from the professor at the University of Colorado Hillary Colman, who is known because it is before Israel and its narratives are highly problematic did not do the adequate research in really, this is about noticing who invited the presentation of Hillary had a lot prejudice opinions such as facts hostilities concerning the minority Jews in the district like my children those who have already experienced this I would like to see antisemitism in schools. Knowing the district is also planning other events to address other conflicts, for example the The conflict between Sunni and Shi Bucaram in Nigeria or in Türkiye, because this issue is a priority. and therefore it was presented in a way that reinforces stereotypes about students What bothered

035me quite a bit about the Jews was the answer when the Parents spoke about bullying Israeli and Jewish children instead of To address the issue, she spoke about antisemitism and Islamophobia despite that nobody mentioned Islamophobia, this response lacked empathy. No acknowledged racism [Music] institutional antisemitism that Jewish families face in our schools Thank you, the last speaker is Jamal Kilmore Hello Hello everyone, thank you for your I wanted time Talking about that is difficult. harassment and bullying by teachers in the My school, my son's school, is the I've spoken to Dan at Angevine School.

But They discipline him, but not the others. It's like dealing with systemic racism in School is very difficult for him to attend. the school is neurodiverse then needs to take steps to help yourself, but yes needs support from the administration and Nobody is helping him at all. It can't go anywhere. So I am. asking if the board or the Can the superintendent help us with? This problem has already lost 2 years in the school

It's called a portrait of a graduate and They are looking at ways in their instruction teaching children to have empathy collaborator takes resilient risks that They quickly think they are communicating with trust and

039that they are courageous leaders and They are encouraging the students actively participate in the community and working for important things similar What our students do was an excellent I don't know if there's another program. something I wanted to talk about just now there was no me I agreed to another session that I wanted to mention If I think of something, I'll raise my hand. other I think we had a time. Some very good sessions in Caspi, but... that I would like to share with the public Several of us attended a discussion of superintendent in Grand Island Nebraska when there was This is an event of immigration, and that's a good session of what could potentially occur while new ones emerge policies So I encourage them to who have concerns to make sure to communicate with

040the administration so that we can alleviate the worries and later this Tonight we're going to talk about a resolution about why we are here to protect our families then Many Thanks Jorge and then Alex I want to thank everyone who they spoke this evening I appreciate the moment of student honor roll superintendent but I also listen to the need in this coming together as a community and being including thinking about the actions that How can we recognize the differences but also needs that we see across the district and the actions we take this in stopping together at the Caspi meeting last week One important point was having breakfast. with the student cabinet Student leaders have a strong voice and see their participation and the changes that They want to do it, and that's a reflection

041of our unit and what they can do students and it's very powerful and I I was in the session, I wasn't in the session I was emotional, which affected the community As we come together And how defend ourselves.

It's exciting to see the

042honor roll of superintendent are things The students and adults are amazing I also wanted to comment on some I attended a panel at the Caspi sessions of the districts that are ahead Regarding our policies Cell phones mentioned important things And I raised questions about this: What is the the most important thing regarding the communication that we do and generally These are the superintendents and presidents They were emphasizing things to Facilitating social interaction is one Ping pong table or games on the library that they give to students things to do with their time they talked about about the importance of having discussions among educators about of what they are going to do differently How things change in the living room class and have less distraction but the more important information than I received things, they said...

043These are important topics, but it must be Doing so is the right decision. grateful for all the opinions of the students and parents and one of the Things that have come up in the discussion No I think it's either one or the other. Yes, indeed. Many students are complaining about Vaping was a priority for the board in previous years and Ah, we were talking about agreements. legal matters that were happening and still not We have reached a solution and I have I'm curious if we can add that as a topic on the agenda and how are we doing in the The vaping issue is not one thing or the other Children should feel comfortable at all times time and we can stop the practices I also did this, I went to another one session about

044Intelligence artificial And I have skepticism regarding the technology in education This is in the world of not always us We focus on achievements And I believe we need to delve deeper our consideration of that and We need to dedicate more time and it What I learned is much more than just copying the Things. If 3% is important this year, but There are more transformative things that will emerge which has advantages and problems and the The first thing a father thinks about is a new way of copying but it affects the The way we do analysis How We teach, but it also affects what we teach. means to be this power to read and communicate with one another another and have arguments And we are thinking about How to make it not happen finally I have

The community really appreciated a leader in the community, I wanted to mention that and well I appreciate that everyone who speaks and They send an email to offer support Resolution 2436 and I am anticipating Thank you. p had started first just because I want to say the same thing as the others have. I was in Casby too, I think. that this was

046the best Casby meeting In my opinion mainly because many of The sessions felt very relevant This and provoked thoughts compared to those of the past as well I was in the session around Ah This is when immigration arrived that It happened in Nebraska. And as Jorge said, Melania, this was difficult and very emotional. It was difficult to hear this and it caused many thoughts and I left there with many feelings and I agree With what Jorge Ah says, we have a lot challenges and obstacles we face We will face each other, but I have confidence in our council the leadership of district and we're going to make sure that Students feel safe here and feel that they have a place where They belong and hopefully and we are happy to that there is a resolution

047in the registry tonight, and as Alex said, this This lets the community know that We are here for them and they are in our mind and As they said, it was a pleasure to meet in Casby Ah Jason, is there something you want? share this Late, yes. Then I got sick. And I wasn't there then at this time I had to lose the painting of honor and it was my favorite event of the year past and Unfortunately, speaking right now... Finally, many people had already spoken about casb many of the sessions right now our colleagues from Council, we are very grateful to be able to have colleagues who are intelligent passionate and fun and we spent a We had a really great time together Many things. And again I apologize for not being there in

048person and being able hear casby Yes, these are my two thoughts I went to two sessions about casbi different one was around the professional development and the other about Higher education was interesting Listen to how some districts They are doing direct admissions working with universities directly, and it was something An interesting idea, perhaps, that we can explore thinking about those sessions Higher education in different ways in that we can Man manage and have more access to our students for the campuses University students. We know that it is This predictable analysis is a application or get into a university These are data points where They are collecting data on how they can impact the requests then We can see if that's helping us. students to determine if they They feel comfortable at that university if They

049fit well there too, I went to one session on legislation with Mrs. Susana Córdoba and members of others advice around the state many questions about how process and both this here and at the level The national assessment wasn't entirely positive. But it felt good that many people They are trying to confront those same people. problems that we still we don't know many things, I was able to attend two different sessions, one of students and another round table with breakfast and in those two sessions experiences with our students There were two things around the State which I found very interesting. How we can increase student access to the information and work of the board when we make decisions that are impacting and there are different models and There are many ways we can consider addressing this

050topic as advice But both of our students who attended Casby and also the youth equity council and The student cabinet has a desire to wanting to understand the work that they It has an impact, and that's something to keep in mind. mind and it was also very good to be able to interact with members of the Councils There are many problems around the state. similar requirements graduation policies for cell phone usage and How can we talk about the shift to School finance report and what it means This is for the workforce group then the responsibility was very It's nice to be able to talk to others districts with the same mentality and that Ah, appreciate it. And we have much to learn. each other is all that I had to say, and for those who

051are Listening to Casby is the school board of school association in the State from Colorado and it was a pleasure to be able to to participate and since I was the last one Council member in providing information We will continue with the the following information articles and the First, it's an update to the registration Good evening, President Rusp members Dr. Anderson's board is I don't really need a presentation Introduction I think Glen is coming This presentation is already an annual registration. I think he's been doing it for 15 years. So we're not going to confuse this presentation with the trend report annual trend that includes 5-year projections, that really It's an update on the count of October you'll see that in the last decade Although the presentation style The data points have changed slightly. Trends

052have remained almost the same Then it's easy to compare them year to year. I'm going to give Glen time this year Ah, I see that it's incorrect. The date says December 10th, not the 12th. We're going to correct that in December and upload it to Box to provide a little bit of context about this presentation is specifically a look at the registration of 2024 and for Review past trends and how they have effect on the current registration this This information has been used for more information about the future projections registration and also contributes to budget for 2025-2026 and also a very important resource for allocation of educational materials centers employment and is also used by several communities, especially Alac and the committees of Bonus now starting with the trends generals this year By 2024 we

053are looking at a decrease in The enrollment of almost 141 students was a slightly better than what we projected we expected there to be a loss of 1.4 because there were 388 students So we won on that front, but Even so, it's a decrease, we are Following the trend of 2017, which is a very constant decrease especially during the pandemic years but it's closer to a loss of 1% is a major contributor to this. This is because many migrants have moved That's been seen throughout the area. I think we've added about 100. to 125 students Ah of migrants who have moved the area looking at the change in registration of the absolute number of changes with year The dark blue line with the year represents from the primary to the second line secondary and third

054plus This is the clearest line. high school we can see that through Over the years that's changing and we have having seen that the high schools have seen a further decrease 2024 2024 we are still looking at one Decrease in primary school, but not as much. as in previous years in high school This line, this trend, is very consistent with what we have seen in other years Ah, the surprising thing is that it has increased to secondary level, some explanation is that possibly the children of pandemic were registered outside the district are now entering that in that level of secondary school now observing the distribution of degrees taking into count the populations and knowing that it affects the General registration can be seen in the The bottom part shows the grades for each level of

055degree has a black line strong can see this is the most high in the inscription held and the line below indicates the numbers lower registration fees than have occurred in the last 10 years and the White squares is where we are Currently this year the triangles are which 100 more than we expected all transitional levels experimenting this higher trends than we had projected apart from that the pattern that we've been looking at classes very small ones in primary and secondary school and entering the preparatory school and when we observe the regional change shelves of Kindergarten to year 12 based on where they live and We can't find out where they go to school Note that this table is displayed here. Bolder is on the dark blue bar and the other bars are communities West, starting

056in 2018, we look that there are many trends in decrease in the district and during the pandemic many parts of the West There was also a decrease this year in Boulder East did see a decrease but this too There were more registrations than we were waiting And in this last year this pair has added more than 400 units in the I think the last 18 months has has been a major contributor to This increase this past year looking at a board similar more or less to the primary school level It shows us the differences in the communities the losses in the primary school in Bolder since 2016 and continuing that Boulder still shows losses We can also be consistent this year Observe this rise in Bromfield in the mountainous region 2024 and we can also

057see that in the area of ​​the Iri reflects the growth of kindergarten fifth probably due to new homes that were created in Losville and above, this is also seen similar decreases but it seems that Louisville saw a less significant decrease that in years past and looking at other factors in the district registration and movements fewer births outside the district That's a review of a table that we have shown in the past We have only shown the bars dark-skinned students entering the student to the District sorry and this year we expand and we also included data from Colorado Department of Education which includes students leaving the district this It includes, as in many of our tables do not include this pre kindergarten, but especially now that universal coverage for pre-kindergarten we have seen an increase in

058the numbers but students who come from outside the district Generally s that it has not the same The other part has changed The lines below are data that the Colorado department is offering and we can see growth in that number from 2014 until the pandemic and then he stays constant such as the education department of Colorado does not produce its own data Until January we had to produce an estimate of our numbers and we're going to have to wait in January to see the data current migration is a very important fact important in the inscription this table It measures the residents who are arriving and leaving the district the green line measures students who are entering new to the District or who are this moving, registering, change of private schools or homeschools district and the

059other purple line are students who are leaving district and if you look at the little arrows The difference between going up and down is the net difference. of students, that's what this migration is about In net terms, what we have seen this year we have seen a very large growth 580 again this has a lot to do with it with the migrant students who have moved to the area and I've mentioned it before but it doesn't explain the full difference 580 That's a very big difference a year There was also a very big gain in the past. good of 380 Those are the best numbers that We have seen this since the pandemic Another very good sign for District A projections into the future another key trend we observe here births that may possibly become

060kindergarten students This is something we need to monitor and It is a starting point for This registration is nothing new for the District has been there has been a decrease from the 1999 and has continued continued the gray line is the part West of the district we can see a line more level with less decrease and with fewer births in bolder but since 2019 we have looked which has not decreased as much and we have talked about this last year fertility rates or trends fertility in a very stable way Since 2020, what this tells us is that women are having fewer children or They are not having children point and the connection between births Kindergarten students are shown here the blue line are kindergarten students residents and the gray line These are the births that

061occurred almost makes cco or 6 years then we can see through Over the years there has been a very strong trend consistent between those two lines with few eh exceptions especially during the pandemic what we have been observing More recently, the last two years that trend among numbers of births and student numbers kindergarten residents have been decreasing over the years We have recently seen between 90 and 95 entering the 80s 80% This is a very good sign Compared In summary, compared to other years it has decreased the Registrations have been better than in previous years. Previously, although this one went down half a percent which are 141 Students, we expected this to be double. this number of primary school levels and High school students also saw a decline But at a secondary level we look

062at this one surprise and there were more inscriptions that possibly this came of a student returning or entering New to the system after the pandemic we are going to add contributions of the district registration of 2024 was near a historically high level bolder Louisville Supermarkets are carrying a leading the decline registrations but in the go we are showing growth in registrations and in There are no more births so many, and there are more too. migration in this year of 2024 and I open the Time for questions B Thanks for that presentation, they seem Good news, tell us a little bit about it More about Park, we're looking at the majority of profits. That's where we are. anticipating more homes It's easy to move there, there are three builders there and they are providing You incentivize

063by attracting people to There are 400 houses planned. To build in 18 months, this is a... a very robust goal Alex yes I am trying to understand the slide Number 11 seems like good news to me. incoming residents and residents who They come out when you're set to kindergarten students And not from Ah of Grade 12 What does this mean or not? This includes if So what we're left with here is people in the other grades who They started the BBD school but They came out as being of school age. and they entered Kindergarten, we're really just... observing here the children of the year How many children have we enrolled? since last October and how many students we lost since the last October is a comparison of Point to Point board members some other question

064for Glan was a very detailed presentation There aren't many questions from the I'm going to add that there are future meetings very bright in pbs and the window of Registration is open and will be be open until February 8th, and sorry, January 8th and Remember that we only have 8 days left before the winter holidays Make sure you fill out your application Yes, I want to make sure I understand. Slide 12 says trends of fertility dropped from 1.4 to 1.0. This means that from 2010 to 2020, that's it Much has been incredible. Because since the 1 1990 we have this dropped points this point each 10 years then to say 2.4 is what They say that's what's needed to sustain a community without migration But we are far below that level and It's going down

065more and More on that point: How is the population? General of the School District How we are we are worsening the general population has has been increasing but not so much in the areas where we see many children, of course. We look at many young adults and also we look This is for senior citizens 60 years and over who are also These are a large part of the population drct Andrew first of all I want to thank Glen for being an expert with over 15 years of experience providing them students to teachers for continuing providing incredible opportunities for our students, and as you can see here from kindergarten through sixth and ninth grade Those are the years where we have I've been focusing on those points of transition we focus on the BBs exhibitions is

066the place where It exists, but migration has nothing to do with it. only with this all students I can't say whether we've won or lost. say that x number of parents who were They registered their children for this event District is among the exhibit This improved efforts events based on the school a change of mindset and make sure that we are hugging the people who children who are part of our community that are perhaps connected with people who are connected to the District that they plan to be or live here likely And it appears that board members are We are lowering the number of students that they are dropping out of school If someone had told me 2 years ago that in December 2024 we would have beaten the projections and We have reduced the

067decreases in inscriptions, that is, it would have been I'm delighted, I think we should to celebrate everything we have been able to do And I believe we have a future brilliant not only with the new preferences registrations but also opportunities that perhaps you don't There were before so that people could I would register and I am also very excited because one of the challenges or biggest challenges we have faced around the decline in registration is the progress we have seen in the collective efforts of Thank you so much. Glen, our next information topic It is the budget development of 2526 do the Thank you, Madam President. r members of the Council Superintendent Dr. Anderson Well, we have taken the first step in the development cycle of budget year 2025 2026 year fiscal we will begin

068with the cycle fiscal We have updated some dates as We put development review implementation we have a video that It takes 2 minutes and presents the most relevant data. important and This shows the cycle to the community and our communications officer Randy updated the We have sound in the video. in the Valley School District Bolder, we take our responsibility with our contributors in a way We are very serious; we want them to trust us. we in the transparency we partner and We collaborate with international experts in the area so that you can see very of close is a cycle that from beginning to end It takes 29 months and It happens to review the funds available to meet with our personal and get ideas and Feedback Everything must be aligned with our strategic plan we

069must establish priorities we have to make presentations to discuss and, where appropriate approve budget then implement it [Music] introduce updates according to the budget evolution and then adopt the year-end reviews We must ensure that everyone develop according to the plan and Finally, we submit our budget to an audit to ensure that We have followed the rules and laws as we move forward in this good process the whole process could take up to 28 months and once it We reviewed the implementation. we see what updates and adaptations what we should do for next year fiscal each year we plan is like a Flight plan we anticipate the obstacles we can to face in case there is a change significant course we have to communicate all this to advice school so that everyone is aware We are

070proud of our process fiscal A brief review of this cycle prosecutor as mentioned This year and last year could be data We've confused, we've created a code of colors and that we will use during the presentation We just reviewed it on last year with the audit We have a revenue budget for the next year and I'm going to point it out as We are advancing the critical points and the a program that will help us illustrate the points in the process as We obtain the information that comes from district and staff we have opinions also from the council and the community and once this has been analyzed the advice take action we have ideas These conceptual ones have not changed. We have here to present a a brief presentation from September June is the opportunity

071to gather community feedback and participant feedback in the process the public meetings of advice we have, uh, data like a budget income state price index consumer the inflation as well as other projections account statements financial the need for staff in the publication of the number of personnel It was published in the gray bar. I can Seeing that represents 90 percent of the fund general of operations is budget commitment as We move forward. And if the color code... You can see below the Left, this is a conversation for the development of the budget of next What we can take away from this is that the budgeting process takes many months and there are many opportunities to offer opinion, information and data relevant data that we collect through different Fuentes says what the audit has done is

072give us information for development of the budget the student count registered users and data financial when we move on to revenue budget of September There is another budget for December which comes at the end of next This week we see the color code in the corner, green is this year. current in September I predicted that well, that alone represents 14 percent of the data state eh eh income taxes about the property is just a small part of what we are projecting the indications: The economy is slowing down and now talking about next year when we continue with a budget December 1st, November 1st They presented a projection of government but contains very important information limited and when speaking from the December budget then We have almost three times as much data. When we get to

073the month of March, which is where the state presents the budget next year is good, we have more But it's still only 62% of the data because of the data and what we can take from it This is why both the district and the state we can build budgets with incomplete data and imperfect. And as we move forward in Over time we have a clearer picture and we would already have to be able to make estimates and more educated projections and make revisions as we get closer to next year fiscal the income projected in the state has been good decreased the the taxes are lower than projected And for that reason, they are reducing projection and see if it compares the Inflation was 2.7 because he went up with what he had estimated 2.5 But

074let's hope that lower the actual number but the increased budget for the year We don't expect much in 2026 growth And the reason for this is that the property taxes go to We continue going down in the current year, it can see that the budget income of the fund general goes in slope constantly from 2023 until 2024 and It will still continue to descend to 2025 And that puts pressure on the budget State again what we can get That's why the income will... decrease when at the same time and the statutory increases of budget to support new programs and to provide funding for education from kindergarten through 12th grade is not covering our expectations - this is a reminder and we can see that it is the plan strategic all together for all Students, we

075have a strategic plan It's phenomenal that things are proceeding this way. presenting profits this strategic plan is also the budget strategic and that's how in what We base our budget when we We approximate the 2025 budget on how We see what challenges we will face. face the coming year and the request for the 2025-2026 budget from kindergarten to twelfth grade, eh, requests a increase of 2.5 per Inflation exists a reduction in enrollment at the level State as a means by percentage increase of 115 million in the general fund for schools There is an increase in kindergarten through twelfth grade. categorical of 13.5 millions updated by inflation. And that was approved by the citizens in the That applies to transportation. special education for talented and gifted children racing These techniques are reimbursements to the District for

076what has been spent and the budget also uses the factor of stability in zero now for what is more brilliant in this proposal after 2 years of processing and legislating They're eliminating the average according to the law of budget of the There is no education Hey We see that from the office of The governor has come to laws who has no intention of returning to implement This average budget Y This is a reason to have good conversations in the community Adjust for inflation 2.5 times and maintain the stability factor of zero The state has increased in a For a student, it's something basic because can direct the increase I have a question about the budget. We need to talk about this slide a moment and for the audience who is watching us average is a

077practice that has carried out for a long time by the the way in which they are counted students And how do we project How many We've been doing it forever for years. always in November before the session that by changing the way you count to the students and change the factor of Stabilization is not what it looks like, it is As it really is, there are many pressures in the budget many challenges and it is a reminder to the public because we had two initiatives, the 108 that It really reduced the amount of dollars that the state would be able to to raise and for but those dollars They turned out well. It contributes to a record about what we are We wanted to support the initiative 1448 and that we told them they weren't

078going to have the money, but if you change the the way in which they are counted students But as I was saying no, we have to keep using the factor of stabilization as has been followed talking about it and the people who They are not of our side here in everything in the entire metropolitan area I have spoken with others superintendents and there are many concern about the chaos this could bring all the districts in the area of ​​the mountains I don't want to interrupt your presentation, but it is very important to stop and point out that we already knew We saw this coming regarding the proposal And you will remember some of the things we were We are worried now We are seeing and we have a delegation in the next legislative session and

079tell them What will happen if this budget It continues, and I think we will try. This is more to anticipate the Good work Reminder: 100 students. It would be more more or less 1 million or are we talking about the staff has to see students to have staff of full time And what is that equivalent to in dollars? 6 and a half millions Well that It lasts for an average of 5 years, according to the negotiations that took place last year The past then dropped from 5 years to 4 years and what is proposed is that what What the governor is proposing is that be zero years by extending the implementation of this as it was originally He presented it. Then it would be like 18 percent. by year new income to be able to

080have funds for uh the new school budget law and reduce the first 5% per year 10% in the implementation. But that It would be between 10 and 20% for it to be Oh Implementing this is an indication of that we probably won't have money in the future either These are very changes significant things that have been done after of the negotiations that took place during the legislative session of the year I don't have a past presentation on the discussions that They were carried out last year but the members of GBC They made some comments about that nature that were very disappointed with the law of finance and the public process that is carried out during the session Legislative Where there was request that different ones be presented scenarios how much would cost simply continue with

081the the same Financial Education law and the language that was used in the legislation past if there is no money income is not being presenting Enough. Then it wouldn't be implemented. that law instead of not implementing it simply do the changes so that both can be implemented and declare that the for public budgets then eliminate students ghost districts must close the more schools I hope quickly. I would like that. The Governor attended some of the community schools and tell them Schools need to be closed faster and as we have experienced much of what is processed with the community to understand what It's happening and doing different things That has to do with decisions to slow down the processes or Stop them, eh the Schools are people, you can't open them. a school and close it

082because it can really harm a community and Yes, closing schools faster is something in My opinion is somewhat unrealistic good let's move forward Let's We continue to see the pressures on the document on the budget for the next year the We have staff who are They have been hired to work one-time resources we have made projections and adjustments, but if the students don't They come as they have projected So if we have a less numerous And then we can move to Personally, but historically we haven't made changes mid-year because could be something that interrupts the process educational next year that we have new projections of registrations and do all these settings for the current year and the staff with the that We have counted the anomalies with schools small and our personal no We have

083five or six schools primary schools are easier to adapt to staff within the school because when already It gets harder after two or three rounds. We are projecting that by doing so, the registrations reduce the next year but all must be restored These staff formulas and the funds and the resources We will continue with the initiatives of the strategic plan and retaining as much as we can The inscriptions are related to the number of staff and inflation These are the three factors that put pressure on the team. in our budget, and I think I've already talked about it enough. about in educational finance what is projected in the background that will increase by a dot dot 8% and the increase by student for District will be of 3% but we have to see that the

084percentage of the funds assigned to the District will not grow the budgets, taxes on the property has implications uh as taxes on the property increase They increase, good. And we created this graph. a couple of years ago to help us Illustrate how the fund works educational to level the part of the State is represented by the we have yellow a stabilizing factor in the corner is like a balloon but if the state is facing a reduction in funds then we see that it is a further mechanism easy to implement we have others options that would also reduce the funds for schools but not the we're going to have so much to the viewed because it is a reminder for the State of not if not They are putting up the funds for the education in

085a way appropriate returning to the budget State officials must therefore dedicate it to other needs the stabilization factor that is It proposes is from Zero and If it returns it is a option one of my colleagues And I we suggest which is a way inappropriate to do in a transparently reduce funds for the schools in the state we have Tor limitation that does not allow the contributors who provide the funds that they should be contributing but it's a very way transparent to show The governor quickly commented that one of the priorities in their budget include the presentation to the legislation to give the funds in its the entirety to the schools, let's see how close we are for the full funds for education this this table clearly It indicates what happens when taxes Local businesses

086are increasing and the part of the State It is decreasing although we have had increases in financing They were primarily supported by increases in property taxes That is not necessarily unique to bolder but with the inscription on decrease and very property values strong a phenomenon that we have to we are getting closer to receive the funds mainly There are some local restrictions There is possibly a district here. The oil districts are very small I think Aspen gets all its local funding one has to receive the funds categorical under the finance law schoolchildren So we have several cycles of returning to advise and with a strong economy we can receive all the financing from Local dollars are not unique to the District under the property taxes but Property taxes are going up in certain cycles and

087allows the State redesign funds for other purposes This is really the important point of where we are We have expectations of a balance of expectations only for provide what would be our expectations of compensation historical and a ment in the rate of inflation changes in the p an increase in health benefits and dental 5%, that's quite low for those who know The health benefits are generally good These are double-digit increases and we had that actually increase the deductibles and change the structure of the benefits of maintaining the financing But as for the income It's under $2 million in the Governor's proposal in the law school finances including a surcharge of 25% is a gap of approximately 12 millions of dollars based on proposal of a Governor who is not very popular in many areas. So

088let's see if the The legislature is willing to go in That hasn't been done against the governor. occurred in past sessions when They had other, not-so-good ideas. but we are at The beginning of this is being projected additional income next year is not a decrease in income in general for the District but it is a very, very, very, very, very small increase So the next steps in the budget development we will have This is what is expected regarding the state revenues the week that enter if they have updated their estimated inflation and also this projections for the We have supplementary budgets for income such as the State employee who comes in January and We will update the count in February student this October we are going to have our budget study reviewed and action in

089January we have mid-January a financial plan strategic the draft we will receive others economic projections Yesterday, the business school led by the University of Colorado East is making their economic projections for the following year calendar And so we're going to include those. updates to the strategic plan draft And what we're thinking. And we have the mid-year analysis, early February Those are the expenses Compared With that budget, those are our... projections of expenses and income such as We went. During the first two quarters of the year and then the preliminary budget in April for the next year with that the Finally, let's go back to the slide 26 of mine as we had discussed or were speaking of the year 1448 I made a comment last time. If that happens We need to be prepared for

090a This new reality is still worse than that The comment would have been intended is important as Bill and I work in The budget presentation is very It's important that we are honest with the honest community with the community our employees with all that is a $12 million gap That includes does not include new programs new programs, new expenses, we're going to potentially have new needs and we're going to have to remove to do Something new is a very real reality different from what we are we can overcome what we are used to, we will deliver a balanced budget But there are things that people feel that They can't live without them, but they're going to having to live without them. And that's the nature of balancing a I think we've done the budget. possible

091to prevent that from happening We are focusing on registration In advocating, you know how long and energy we have used to avoid 14:48 and We're going to do the same with this one. budget, they know that, they understand that, but It's important that we are very clear if the things we're going to have to do business differently from many different ways to build this and deliver a balanced budget AND We have that obligation to our There are 17 contributors with slides. Thank you very much, and I appreciate the gesture. those topics and whether people should pay attention to what is happening and I want to thank Bill for his leadership and her presentation, but she needed to come back to this slide to be the point that We are moving forward in a new reality

092That has changed significantly the way we have done business and this with the understanding that our The needs for our children continue Growing. Thanks, Dr. Anderson. That. speak to the accountability committees of district adding the things is not a reality at this time and we need to think clearly about it that can be adopted by members of the We're going to spend a lot of time together. talking and thinking about this budget And we will undoubtedly listen community concerns and questions about the content of those discussions So I want us to understand I understand how the process works next steps then I give the Welcome to any questions you may have. For Bill or Dr. Anderson about this presentation to ensure that we can answer the questions about budget in the coming months kiri Thank

093you for this very good news. charming this Do you have any ideas? in particular the slide to 26 What would it be if it is not removed average Well, there were three changes that were made the new finance law schoolchildren expand implementation cut down on first-year implementation and eliminate four things Eliminate this one half percent increase of medium because it was eliminated also eliminate this fact of then average all four things in the set is at least 5 million The dollar would not have closed the gap. mind but would have lowered it significant certainly, and the other thing I wanted I said before I was talking about of the balanced budget in the schools, but now they are doing it in the children's backs. That's what In my opinion, we are doing... important when we

094talk about that which We talked about it this way so that the community understand that this is something that It will directly harm the children is going to be a problem for employees in particular if we have to reduce our workforce but the The greatest impact will be on children Alex, well, a question about politics... change on averages it is a statutory requirement of the legislature or the government is proposing that it currently does in the finance law schoolchildren this includes all calculations then would have to be An estuarine change would indeed have to be a change statutory. So that's what We want it not to happen correctly or an increase in 5% in this dental and health benefits How realistic is it? that this It is the current language that is in the contract

095about twice the inflation rate up to a maximum of 5% that's the benchmark that it's there We have the benefits committee made a autumn is a great process for coming together We're looking at the details and seeing What are the options? from the mixture of the design of the This is possibly a question. for Dr. Anderson, it seems to me He did so by leaving the assembly of Caspi who did not take a position regarding matters of responsibility in the state to advocate for those things complicated. I'm curious what opinion about the status of others is of the same size in the area Front Range metropolitan area with whom we can work to make a coalition of people who want to do the same things because I'm not Waiting for Casbi Case to do it

096is a advisor We're definitely going to... working with the shareholders to work with others districts that have the same situation Regarding calculating an average and the area Metropolitan area we serve 70% of the students in the state, and that's where is the majority of the decrease most of the districts in the area metropolitan as 27j Saint will be a benefactor of Because if one is increasing if you are averaging and loses a child And this one is 5 years old, there's little impact But there are many districts that will be affected by that and we speak in Caspi of I discussed that with other superintendents of the metropolitan area and the commissioners about important ideas around the ability without the average that one has to prepare as a District by examples such as new police

097or policies of federal immigration and the district It loses 500-600 children. That's a reality. that we need to think about new students migrants this When I say that, I mean that we have to change the way we do business We need to fundamentally change it The districts are used to receive the allocation in a moment Parents have indicated they want to know who are the teachers at a given moment Given that, and that creates a lot of volatility and We need to change the practices to that we are living within the budget. What does that mean to people? that's it pushing to hire earlier What do the employees have this for? earlier full-time but without to know in an environment when people can go to any school that has There is other space in the

098state conditions in Colorado that do that completely different from others places where I have worked the ability so that people go to other schools beyond his neighborhood school is extremely different creates a problem, a game of problems, very complexes the community can trust that I will fight for every child. Our District for our employees to push against this proposed budget but requires more that our District to do that We have already started those possible conversations And knowing that this is a difficult year for the budget and if that continues Go ahead, as has happened, we're going to have Many things are changing in the district that people aren't going to like, I want dco Thank you for mentioning those points. Alex was in front of my mind Slide six I have a question its timeline

099that has been in effect for 20 years old, I feel it's difficult for me to We have a window for the allocation of staff that is equally permanent like before, and there is a way to do it different boxes that are different there are dotted lines that will not be the reality for what The schedule says this year's missing information We'll know by April. Possibly not. We know depending on what happens There are implications that we have to When to consider for that timeline We can commit, that impacts the negotiations and other things, but it's something. that I'm noticing with the program and how that average will help us To make an impact, one has to be very There are conservatives with contracts limited fewer people with whom we can offer a We need a

100regular contract But if they can do all the interviews and hiring before, then, it may no longer be a reality. I don't know I want to find a balance amidst many alarms sounding, but also be realistic about the situation to the extent that we have obligations We have to consider that in contractual matters. And there are also things we have to negotiate and open the contract to think about it while we think about Wood that we can navigate is a new environment and the extent that we are going to use our strong society with our partnerships and put the facts into practice in front of everyone so that we can Solving those things involves very big changes. important things that happen with the process Regarding budget development, we need to mention that to the audience

101to to warn them about the things that are going to happen. change but not to the extent I know, but we won't be able to do things in the way we have done according to my understanding is universal preschool and the program of lunch Free expenses exceed income then working by means of JBC with the universal preschool have We have recommendations. This shortage How do you expect that to have an impact? our budget and we're going to have the need from the general fund to support those programs Well, we're in our second year of universal preschool and it keeps changing, let's see if... There are developments in How decide use the application process in line any changes to this process decisions they make mid-year to be within their restrictions State prosecutors. Because those tax revenue

102does not come in as expected had expected And that's what preschool is for the east Free meals for everyone conversations with the department of In Education, there was a whole working group to explore different options how to do that program sustainable and an entire range was covered that we need more income until Well, there are some districts that have that pay it, all the children are preparatory Pagan was financed by the education fund of the State this year because they are not generating I believe the amount of income is something the legislature needs to address It's the idea that they have the power. to put tax increases in forehead from the town and they need voters get used to doing it They have the option to say no, but the legislature is it then or

103because it has fear of raising taxes in front of town and I believe they need get used to doing that in order to do Spread the word It's not very expensive if an effort from The town is going to put something in front of the voters are 50,000 to get the signatures but she can simply vote for Put it on the ballot, I think, hopefully. Well, it's their obligation. Because within Taber Taber doesn't say we'll never never have a tax increase She never says she has to ask. The voters, if that's okay then They need to follow that process and ask the Voters have the option to say not, but when it is done The question voters ask is not answered. He has to make the reductions, and that's how it is. further The consequences

104of not providing are visible This is adequate funding for the public services the funds in cash that come of home licenses or that raise the amount of dollars to the state that creates a Taber refund that has to to be taken from the general fund and that cycle of more people who enjoy the Upload the activities refunds is a Bad way of branching out of Taber Y then the legislature has to get used to asking for financing for the services In my opinion Alex, if I can go back to the things that We control. I understand that It's horrible that we have a disaster Regarding the state's finances, The district isn't going to decide that, in fact. We had a special session that harmed the end We cannot correct t to receive more income In

105a few years then I think we need to have more constructive conversations with the things that are inside our Can the control team tell me which ones they are? the other pressures in the budget and also give me a perspective on the 12 gap millions of dollars then $12 million in a operating budget of $480 million is a percentage like 2.5 per is a way of thinking This is a gap of 12 million. dollars and also what are the other things that cost 12 million dollars If there is any flexibility at all. incremental on our part Well, education kindergarten tenth second grade is a service industry The costs that We have are in the the personal idea than a primary It costs 4 to 5 million dollars to run with all the staff to all

106the students and all these projections are that one doesn't save that amount of money when one closes a school then The suggestion is not to close a school saves enough enough money So what happens is that The other schools have classes in larger size then that's not the size of the issue at this point in the budget to find out if 12 million of dollars from where will 12 million come? $90 per budget people and we really need to pay attention in in the future and current version of what we want to do for preserve efforts to support the students in the classes certainly and notice the things we have implemented that help us change things in the district with a focus in supporting the critical parts and I believe That's going to be a

107big job, that's My job is to build the work of our team to perform That difference in a way that the Well, we're going to feel it, folks. obviously, but that preserves those critical functions, there are things we do that we spend more money than someone else spends people who have been expectations within of the community and things like that can be Well, we have to do it that way different transport operations service to the community we have to do those things board members Jason No questions, but thank you for because of your The presentation brought us the reality.

You took the words right out of my mouth. from my mouth listening to Kiri read that It makes me so proud to be a part of it. I deem the gravity of those words It really reminds me of our responsibilities here thanks for the work they have done in this resolution And thanks for reading, that was Powerful. Thank you for your work. Our Last discussion. I think this was very important that we were with the same mindset the

120same step moving towards the future and board members I believe this reflects our values our feelings, we believe in this and talk about the action we want to take as a District to protect our students, then I appreciate your support This is very important and creates a connection for those who want or need help or I support Beth, yes. I want to join the choir. Thanks to Kath and her team, something that I This last part stands out to me: This It will be placed at every school site and distributed to parents and staff in each language used throughout the Creo district that this is a an incredible powerful statement and it is a district commitment testament Thank you to all the students. Alex, I want to tell you two things. I think it's similar

121to what you said. Repeat it, leaders like We are leaders of a board of the district and we are reflecting the values ​​of our community and we want to make sure that be represented and reflect these values ​​and I dare say this one Review: Good only for what They're talking about how visible it's going to be This being one of the I don't think it really reflects those points. What it says, and I think it's worth reading. I'm being very careful, I don't know if it's okay or not. No, but I propose adding a couple of words said by the council office The legal department will respond to the request. of Federal immigration officers I would like to refer to what they were saying the paragraphs before because if you take it out out of

122context as if our new council would be this responsive to those requests what What this means is that legal advice is going to to follow the principles precisely and legal requests Kathlen can talk more about Yes, the words they matter to me I'm wondering if I should add this language. that the schools will provide any application to the council office legal for schools to have is This is this confidence that we will to offer them or do what we are offering them education our children and other topics and for Clearly, we have a motion on the floor We need to amend that to include the changes so that it can happen if it Would someone do it, Alex? I move to do it an amendment conceptual so that Kathlen can correct herself the language a

123little bit so that the people in our schools are directed those requests to the legal council laara You can take the list Who did the second Keri That's the motion for approve do the Chávez amendment yes mler n cona rer yes the motion It happens unless there's an argument later to approve this resolution including the new vocabulary very Okay, let's vote to approve the resolution and the amendment Chávez The approval motion Thanks to all members of the common vote solution and now we continue with action policies the first is the graduation requirements we have motion to approve This is requested by Kiri, seconded by Jorge, members of Council: We need to talk about discuss this Well, I'm going to To begin, I want to thank the council. legislative by clarify this policy to improve the

124our community's ability to understand the inclusions I'm trying to Look for it in the section where we talked about it. that the students are prepared for university and the industry and my proposal was that it put i or put it here in my Drive my suggestion to with regard to preparation for the university and a career Students must meet the requirements and the measures that correspond to the scores and criteria for the university or degree in English and in mathematics, since not all Students are going to a university is correct kin yes And another instance in the following paragraph I have other grammatical things that I can send under the elective credits 70 the maximum of five service credits to the community will be elective or recommended and 15 or more hours of service to

125the community, that means They are recommended but they are not requirement and What if the recommendation not I still understand that recommendation creates a standard that allows the principles apply to the type of community service and intensity and so the entire general commitment of work Ah then it just remains as Recommended. No, my source says No Alex, regarding that and me I was saying they're changing from 75 to 70 So we're giving credit for fewer hours of service, that's what I'd do. I understood I was talking about the word It is recommended that I was not talking about the numbers Okay, so we've already sorted out the issue of... I have another question, thank you. work for all the people who worked on this in At the last meeting we had a discussion about talking

126about what to talk about skills competitive and educational issues But I wanted more attention to be paid to as for students having more access to activities that are known lifelong learning and what I I suggest making an amendment where it says activities for example frisbee, cycling, and for example, putting cycling eats yoga eats and at the end uh frisbee so it can be seen That's good, I'd like to clarify. which, for example, are activities extracurricular activities if We have mountain biking and we have Good chess. I understand what you want. to say regarding the well-being of student but the Education classes Physical education offers walking yoga and other activities not competitive, you meant That's good. Good point, but I meant to school activities and the process of give up for example the yoga mountaineering on

127the other side We were referring to those I know that the Athletic Committee has activities He's checking this, but I wasn't there. this committee and I have never state Then I would tell the people the decision. experts and with that Kiri afterwards The discussion about Lenia was good. These activities must be ceded. focused more on equity because they are receiving a waiver for joining clubs Well, in my opinion Uh, it's not that strong about either how it is It refers to yoga, mountaineering, all that is very Well, but we didn't determine it. Definitely what were we talking about? to do with the dispensations or what Nicole was talking about require 50 credits of education physics and 10 of language We've never spoken to a foreigner. background about dispensing a course taking in account equity for

128this topic as I said in the last meeting, well, to get through this and with The greatest education for At their graduation, well, they... This one... may receive a waiver for athletic activities, physical education and I mention it because time is important and it is, uh, so that people can begin to plan right now and for the class of 2029 they uh have to to begin by knowing what the requirements for it to be graduate me I recommend that Let's take amendment number two, but I I understand what you He mentioned it well in terms of grammar. It has nothing to do with whether we put yoga or cycling Mountain. Well, we're talking. specifically about that education In general, then, it's not a difference. between physical education and education Yes, doctor. Anderson in our last

129discussion in the other at the meeting we had to consider the Implications of the changes mental and therefore I understand by example clubs that are certified and Then we'll see what else they count the specific activities we have that validate and verify other activities, but that was not the intention of fix this, but if that was the intention So we don't have to take out This policy won't even wait 10 years more Yes Alex a I support Kiri's proposal. change term of General Education physical education. Because we don't have to do we have to wait a period of 10 years or if it exists the political will to change this I would prefer that the initials ge instead of ie there are some other schools besides Chesa, I don't know about others These are not

130provided by the activities are the two activities primaries, as far as I know, is true if we changed it language according to the data with the intention of correct some of the things that the The council asked me to interpret it But I couldn't because the language was very Confused, Dr. Anderson helped me to To clarify, this language has the the intention is to clarify this and reflect on it. which is my understanding of what is It does so now, but if it's a change If it's too abrupt, then we can do it. adjust it postpone for the 17 that we have another meeting or or We could... Well, I'm going to stop talking members of Advice to review our processes Roberts and I'm going to add something so that It makes more sense when...

131Read if you want to amend and review the amendment as to to course exemptions to protect to families if anyone would like to I like that option, but it requires one. motion yes Jorge may ask a question I want to clarify that this "What does this say?" language because the Chesa These activities are not Chesa No are Chesa, but on the other list, which are non-activities then supervised would maintain the same language I'm reading this Yes, I declare it correctly. correctly, as I understand it, is looking for a language There are three ways we do it Approved by Chesa Not approved by Chesa or activities extracurricular and for To clarify, these have always been and will be continue being approved by the director of each school Yes, that's right And in practice, that's what clubs

132are. sports and to support the point of Alex in practice. They have always been clubs sports cars. Or maybe there could be another one. For example, I go to aerobics every week then You may not attend; you may not have to attend to the gym. So this reflects the what we are doing Currently, yes, that's what I I understand this reflects what we are currently doing Alex Bueno, I wanted to get to the experiences of children like mine who didn't They are interested in sports competitive But we can do some activity that They really enjoy physical activity and that they have lifetime access to their well-being Then the coaches They are used to sports competitive when in reality It's simply seeing it from the point of view of view of other students who may enjoy

133an activity physics. So if we agree, we remove the term of and G So I don't want to be very I've mentally closed myself off to uh, to say that we want there to be available activities for children enjoy There is a statement in parentheses. third year of that would cover what you are referring to what he had proposed is remove athletic activities competitive But I wanted There would be more of an interpretation broad of what it means sports equipment competitive I'm trying to understand Why doesn't this part refer to your I'm not arguing in my comments I'm just trying to understand with you. Well, yes, it contains it, but... while everyone thinks it's appropriate and rigorous in the same way that I I'm thinking, I'm thinking, and not like the others. coaches are thinking

134good Let's say proper and rigorous yoga will be something totally different with a sporting activity that involved more movement within the space Yes, that's why I would like uh, general education that included yoga and dance for because there are people who don't have imagine how intense yoga can be and Well, apparently nobody wants to dance. make a motion to amend this But I have a motion to try this. and with subsequent discussions about physical education And all this as part of this discussion and in discussions outside of this topic we are going to vote on Now Alex, yes, I support voting now and my intention Well Yes, we'll talk after implementation doctor Anderson, I appreciate this discussion and we will believe we do it like this no be subjective to such a degree that if

135the sports are included or not Including is seeing things differently what we mean as physical education a broader conversation but about a broader regulation or Whether it depends on each director of the school approve granting an excuse but we want to have more opportunities we want to see demonstrated physical activity and that it is approved by I want to be very clear with each school. Changing languages? No, that's not it. the expectation we have when changing the language we need to establish priorities for the next generation that's going to graduate, huh which I understand is what we are going to do whether in the autumn we have quite a lot time to continue By doing so, if we start to change the I don't want language that an interpretation be made that it seems that

136we are uh saying that this qualifies or this doesn't qualifies as an activity of physical education I want to make it very clear about the specificity that we need to have for navigating something like Lora can take this Chávez vote yes mler yes nisn yes wian Agueda yes Rus yes to be yes Anger yes to be approves the emotion at this point of the tonight we're going to have a drink. pause to the to the e B I would like to reopen the meeting of Tonight we are under study for policies the first one is jrl interrogations by officers of the At this point, I will allow the law to... Kather Suan speaks. Thank you, members of the board We did make some slides that the constitutional authority that supports the policies we are going

137to discuss today It seems important in relation to the public comment we received and also the memorandum of this the dac committee then the search is under the amendment Four is an important law that We need to comply with the fourth amendment which prohibits a search or seizure unreasonable, I'm going to try to do it in This context applies to the government and when the Supreme Court took notice of the Amendment four in the context of the We have two important cases in schools. The first is New Jersey against what was set Regarding the standard of forces of the law that applies to searches that This is needed to perform a search The constitutional court set its sights on those requirements to balance the extent to the requirements that are set how much this is

138or balance it with the public interest to navigate in nu What needs to be done about public schools schools to ensure well-being of the student institutions and the that It is evident that the environment This needs to ease the restrictions And a teacher, no, no. You need to do or seek an authority To do this, we have the standard of the Supreme Court that requires that the officers must have a suspicion reasonable to justify a search of a student and then there is a second case that I hear the court in 1985 the unified Safford against The state of New Jersey was not a question if it was appropriate to do the search But I was looking for these pills. ibuprofen and the student had a t-shirt and the student had to reveal this, your

139underwear, we're going to have two standards that apply to the school districts the first one has that justify the exception of the So, one has to have a search. a reasonable suspicion that we are going to find the evidence that the student has violated board policy and second requirement if it is justified From the beginning it also has to be reasonable in its scope the way in which The search is done respectfully of the age, gender and the nature of violation. And that's the standard. constitutional established by those cases main ones Now when we look at the The question mark between the two policies has been raised states in force since the 1980s and Our policy is designated as interrogations by law enforcement officers And what does question mark mean? defined in the CCO amendment,

140I have highlighted in bold you will see important does not have that force a declaration of a person who can be used in their against when we look at the law of Miranda cases are the law interprets the amendment 5 to talk about questions under custody is an interrogation that the force of law is enforced when the The person cannot leave, that's what we are talking when we talk about That question mark applies to the law enforcement or the police and that That's what was said about the presenter speaker tonight when We're talking about the reviews, we're going to start with gjr first the original policy that with the which began is several paragraphs By That's why there's a lot of content that has changed one of the questions that It arises with schools and

141parents to Sometimes it's when a school official wants to talk to my student about of misconduct How then is it The proposal under the policy is to expand the topic to address a question about law enforcement officers but also to provide guidance to schools and families about other types of interactions interviews with the staff of schools need to be We don't have adequate ones obligations related to a custodial interrogation, for example Miranda and other things which raise many questions afterwards write a report mandatory when entering On this stage, the police services protective of children or minors have the right under the law they have the obligation to investigate abuse of The content may be suitable for children. instruction and provide further guidance The DAC understands if we ask the DAC This involves doing some political

142work We gave them both aces, I think that in September and we did or We asked for your opinions so that I could could try to incorporate their opinions for the board when I received it He had to speak with more than one staff member So, normally we were looking at the changes and one has to make the interrogation Sister police officer those are the conditions we have and the dac Tuvo many comments on his memo about language so that it is We made it strong enough additional reviews and I want to indicate That's what the board defines in the The first page remains the same but the paragraph at the top of the Page 12 was modified after listen to the DAC and also talk with Security leaders in the district so that it

143is clear with the police This is when we talk about the issues legal rights and rights I think we were individually. pushing beyond what is necessary I cannot give legal advice to the students about how they should deal with the police Then the paragraph says first our fundamental belief that if the police want to do a questioning of a student who is participating in criminal conduct You need to organize that activity outside. from school while the students They have access to their guardian parents etc. the others steps with numbers that We are asking staff to take if It's that there's an officer who wants interrogating a student are more specific iterations of what we had previously included and also caspi sample language if We are dealing with the forces of the We have a designated

144police director. who knows the politics that accompany the student until present in Parents' language reflects this. current but it is also more specific paragraph three is more We always make a specific effort to talk to the families But that's us He tells the school leaders that We expect them to notify the parents and then talk to the police and tell them due to board policy they need wait until the student is there has access to his father or tutor and we are trying to walk a fine line between legal advice Information for students will inform the student that possibly They have legal rights and can Choose to wait for your parent or guardian to provide more language Specifically, there is a new requirement. to ensure that students are They are being questioned in a private

145place and also to make the leaders either do this or tell the police that They need to follow the guidelines We are communicating specifically clearly our belief that the Interrogations must take place outside of the school, but it does give instructions if school officials find This is a police officer with this... identification and a weapon that is in in front of them, those who want access still student, those are the scenarios that They have given us guidance when they ask about what they need to navigate a situation this difficult, thank you for that, for that complete information on the law and the incorporation of that into policy Kitty is raising her hand... which confuses me a little about That's politics. includes interviews questions with the idea that the student may have committed a crime, an

146offense, but also includes interviews for child protection that the The concern is not that the child did something But they are the victims, but what I don't know is... Mention here if the police are going to do a interview with a The child has been a victim So if he/she is not a member of the family then does not participate Police would say No more interviews probably not even at school Anyway, they take the child to Blue Sky. bridge for example. But there are times when they have to do it at school and the parents to come and pick up the child and thinks the child is going to be in danger or This is the person who is causing it I don't really know if he's not the father. I'm asking, but it seems

147to me that There are two different things, and if we can organize it as interviews when the student is suspected and interviewed when the student It is when it is suspected that the student is the victim then it doesn't matter who this is the person who is doing the interview if he is the victim if he is this the police or protection services Can I ask a question about minors? clarify when This is when he talks about interviews with staff speak of victims, witnesses, Kiri He's talking about victims those who [Music] They make the process different or the process is what itself and is important for the question and how we handle the question that Kiry did the process is different if Is it a school interview or is it a police interrogation Then I

148hear that question and I'm thinking about some additional changes What can we do when it comes back to the meeting to clarify that section in As for interviews, then I noticed it I want to clarify the line. that was This was the child abuse I was talking about. suspected no I wasn't talking about other crimes or Policy violations Okay I feel I like the way it is organized because we're talking about interviews by an authorized officer of the public regarding negligence abuse of Children like that it divides it into three Different ways. It makes good sense. So for me, I want I understand. Obviously that. It could be someone else who is doing the interview but we have said who is an officer authorized by the public but the qualification says law enforcement interviews and

149questions about those of the workers' protection law minors are not officers of the law then I must remove these officials of the forces of the title law Then Yes, I would have more. sense Alex, that might set a precedent. Legal. Oh, one question I have: how in the interview if they are not under the mandatory custody assistance but They are in custody and cannot leave So the question is whether the police officer that is done a The question mark says it can't tell you. how how does it play part I do not agree with this. I think the Supreme Court is key. important when we are talking about Our students talking about the I don't know if the law is legal. It is possible that a child, while being interviewed by force and that are

150suspects of doing something wrong This We don't want them to think that they are can go from school, that is, not I don't know if maybe this includes language around that and really we have to ask ourselves at least about that school does some kind of the demand the intention does not remain very Clara, the police officer could... possibly say let's wait outside and then we continued the No, that's not possible because According to our policy, the director or the The designated person is required to stay. student and the officer until a parent or legal guardian or adult arrives and it replace And if I can considering the complexity For interested parties, this How we can continue is the future not like the politics of political gradations can change in any time of This year

151we are training staff for do I'm scheduling time for this next week to talk about this We can do more to show consideration. Or we can put it on for a while longer. This is in the hands of the together and I'm happy to receive participation in all our policies Jack had plenty of time to do this They had many reminders to make sure they understood this the time they had to do it and I think which is very important to consider legal cases that, although they didn't feel they had hurried instructions to guide them around the conversation but it did He reminded them a couple of times to were somewhat prepared for this meeting Because if we always do the study followed by action and sometimes time During that process, any other ideas? Jorge's

152thoughts on all interviews reaction question I think the Clara's guidance is clear when contacting the parents and the agencies, but what's not is that it doesn't talk about staff schoolchild thinking or taking into account the age and ability to give consent How we involve How can we guide our parents? school leaders, I do believe we should provide more guidance and there is a prayer to end of the first paragraph which says Interviews are not required consent prior consent of parents or legal guardians this It is a very consent It's important that people are not I agree, there are many parents who are going to to say that we cannot speak with their children without their consent but We must use very specific language. careful saying that it is not possible or I was thinking after

153the done after it was done interview, I would say the same if looking the language that was added around of identification assertions to the parents, I think that seems very That's reasonable, that's a big change. politics is already very ancient we have shifted our student policies around Laiga the code of discipline and we have entered a Very positive direction, I'm excited to have more clarity around from the context of the interviews not only interrogations and protections for our students and notifications to our parents, I think Those are very important steps and positives on the red line and yes maybe this the subcommittee of d and they were able to provide us with help and quanza the board members on the line Red in this document that collaboration it's always Welcome. Any other questions? about this

154online article red so we can understand, let's continue Go ahead with this because it can be done change more Go ahead, sure, right? I mean, what I'm saying is I'm trying to ask when we're going to to have this document in front of us of new perhaps a question we have heard from a member of the Jack that he didn't He's speaking on behalf of Jack, they didn't look at the red line, but Yes, they reviewed the original policies Preron guidance were prohibited with state laws with the example of Casby and they included their comments Based on that, but if it's the exhibition to give them a chance from the board provide feedback additional line-based red considering that there is no If it's urgent, I prefer to take the time to so that they review

155it and approve it, and not having to return to So I don't want to talk about part of Jack this had I was present at Jack's meeting mixed feelings about these policies, but to get to your point I don't think everyone had the same understanding of the reasons Ah, confusions, and what was the role of the school versus the I would find the question interesting. I don't know. And I also know that they were. hurried I would be happy to ask with the policy subcommittee to see if They reviewed the articles Topics on the red line, and let's see if They need more time to report to the meeting in our next board meeting next policy If JRS is the search policy, then I have prohibited by the authority constitutional in which it is based

156on whether we incorporate more language from the casby sample to make sure That We covered several topics and much of this wine came by request deck us They asked to address issues such as cell phones that not previously we had discussed politics but when Dr. Anderson we are There was litigation in the district here. in 2008 on this topic incorporated that language within this policy is our practice in babies of this search cell phones unless there is extreme circumstances because there are additional privacy protections that the Courts have applied around about cell phone use and I also want to point out the fact that this policy He addresses us and says that we didn't ask. that school staff do These searches were conducted in the search for weapons. fire two years ago when there was

157a shooting in our neighborhood which was part of the search for a student because they were looking for weapons of fire, this is absolutely part of it in our practice we have talked about This with our teams of Security and the Leadership Team This It's on page one of this politics and in the other one they're going to see the language included because there is an administrative report that was written and we also include language around privacy and students not Binary devices having a search, a voice Sorry, in how the search is carried out that We've also added language to our search. around the search for cars and finally a language around which the Casby sample and I think the Jack's request talks about what what would we do with those articles in the event

158that they were found as if they were part of a search if the question about the students no binaries that if there is no I don't really know how to be an adult Saying it probably won't happen adult binary tone in the fourth, but what if there's no one? Queen, your gender or gender identity makes the student feel We would only do a search if... we had sufficient reason to believe that there is a serious violation of the policy of the Together we'll try to do everything we can May our power be to ensure that that we will do that search for the person in the privacy and dignity that they HE They deserve to assure us that from the protecting the school environment by giving it student a voice and explaining to him what

159It would be in that search for that I have a question. When you don't know They do the searches personal to the point that the students They are informed of the reason why which search is being conducted and what Understand By What? And while that's in agreement with I think that law would be helpful for that our students and families They understand similarly with the searches and raids I wonder if the situations in the which a student can be This search and the student feels that There was no reason for them to do this to him. What kind of restorative practices They can be helpful in that situation. a person can to say, and particularly to the students who have sexually related trauma or power imbalances with people from authority there are restorative things that

160What can we do to mend that relationship? with the person who had to We do it because we want to. relationships of trust within our environments And if the answer is no These are very delicate ions especially if the student feels that they are pointing at him or her unfairly, and yes, I think it can be difficult I appreciate what You say that, and I think maybe we can Considering these things is my concern. if create too many conditions that can prevent people to search the children We have to keep in mind the best interests of the security of school and the people in school There must be a balance I hear what you're saying and I have worked in schools for a long time clear weather things have changed for the better but I'm

161trying to think potentially Maybe this one, I don't know, Klyn, have you spoken with administrators and teams of security. What are the things they They have to do it and how they can do it to make sure that we are keeping schools safe As long as we maintain that balance. That's it. That's what I want to do, yes 100%. And that's it. the reason why there were red lines which were created later because it had I need to talk to the security team. and that we would have comments if We need to qualify. And if we add language that is In the middle of the page two between the two paragraphs that They have black ink and it says yes When possible we will inform student of Why is it being done he search and

162while we're doing it is informing them what we are We also include a part of notification to ensure that I informed the parents on that occasion. that the search was carried out and also I think I know that we have tripled along this I'm going to talk to the politicians administrators to ensure that we found the right balance for make sure we have the language Correct, and another related comment the first two paragraphs and the searches the final sentence of the first The paragraph states that a person is subject a x y7 is similar to what the second paragraph that the searches of the pockets, possessions, oh clothing, I mean He repeats what he's saying because he already We said that we expanded the language in such a way time remove that I'm going to

163talk about the first point. This is part of the report to state and good How to keep a record of This is about the use of discipline interrogations and searches to find out how is it that the school, uh, this is about type of situations and the other part When it says "when possible" and that makes me It was striking to what degree it would not be possible to know when there is a Research in school: Why is it put it there whenever I think it's possible. ders expli very difficult to think of all the circumstances that can I started out as a lawyer school and we were looking in the bags cigarettes and it's something that I think there are circumstances we do where We have a high level of threats and such Perhaps

164at that moment we couldn't to talk about the reason for the investigation But we could talk about it at later but perhaps not before Possible, but then yes to talk any concern that that same one arises paragraph speaks about asking the student for permission to carry out the search but in the The following paragraph says they are not allowed that they answer no because otherwise they put in problems Yes, so It's good, I don't hug a person without ask them there are things that can be done different fashion is like in Airport security is good so They're trying to be nicer, but They're going to do it one way or another. place of to be on the ground Yes, well, it was an example. Yes. Alex Bueno was thinking as in the second sentence The

165student must be able to collaborate or if It will not be a cause for discipline then. The student must be able to collaborate because it says what you are proposing This is in violation of the I don't know if the students will be subject to the law. memorize Jason has any questions or Comments: No comments members of the Council some other opinion Thanks cathlin It was a great job; there are policies that They are very heavy and it was very useful to have that legal optics and on this and has allowed to understand how to take steps to that our families and our Students, have your rights protected as much as possible good We don't have to discuss this, but I have There is curiosity about the developments legal matters that are relevant to what

166We're talking about putting us in a... firmer position of the resolutions that we are approving today This reflects the importance of update policies frequently because they must reflect the values ​​of the council and of the community and they give us a level of guidance for our staff and for our students of the way it operates district Council members, we have one last topic now is the time to add if they want to give priority to some Topic please, now is the time if can confirm with me Regarding the waivers, yes, we will review them. the requirements And if we could put the topic vaping in the list any other topics to discuss members of The council seems not to be getting up session to
