[0:00] I would like to call this meeting of the Detroit Public School Community District Board of Education to order. Roll call, the Secretary of the Board, if she would give us the roll call please.
[0:13] Thank you.
[0:14] The three questions.
[0:17] Here, please.
[0:18] Your moneys, finance, and present,
[0:19] and the air and permanent.
[0:22] The present, and the air and permanent.
[0:23] Reverend Dr. Steve's playing here.
[0:26] Thank you.
[0:31] Thank you.
[0:32] Mr. Moore, would you please read the call for a special meeting?
[0:36] I, Daniel Mory, they're going to present to me
[0:39] to some of the students who are going to
[0:45] pick four of them
[0:46] or try a boarding school.
[0:53] much?
[0:54] Excuse me.
[0:55] Meeting, no, we need to talk.
[1:07] Thank you so much for calling 1.05 moment of silence.
[1:21] Thank you so much. At this point I'd like to call the approval of the agenda as it is written or there are any changes.
[1:40] Thank you so much, it has been properly moved by the board member, Betsy Harris, reported
[1:50] by Dr. Plan that we would approve in any discussion.
[1:55] There are no changes hearing none, it's so-called in favor, all right, it is so moved, thank you
[2:03] much in the motion carries. As we move through this agenda, I want to close
[2:09] of the comment at the point at 3-0-2. I
[2:19] remember that you know we just kind of
[2:21] walked through this not too long ago, both of us that were here and we are grateful
[2:26] for Venti Harris and Dr. Blaine. But now we need to take care of the
[2:33] business moving forward for the seat of one-tailed combat and doctor Irish Hill.
[2:42] At this point in order for us to move forward, there needs to be a motion for the suspension
[2:47] of policy 1-4-2.5.
[2:51] I will accept a motion at this time.
[2:54] Motion to suspend the policy 1-4-2.5.
[3:13] Thank you so much.
[3:15] Now we may move into item five, which is the Board of Education candidate interviews.
[3:23] Before we bring in the candidate, first candidate, I'd like to look at a review of the
[3:40] I just want to know, are you ready for the beat up?
[3:46] All right.
[3:46] Four minutes.
[3:47] Did you get a chance to renew me?
[3:57] Okay.
[3:58] I don't see.
[3:58] Nothing.
[3:59] I just
[4:06] want to make sure that all the world remains an opportunity
[4:09] to renew the question.
[4:12] I'm sending you by email.
[4:14] Okay.
[4:14] And then you are paired at this time.
[4:17] Having said so, and we will call our first candidate.
[4:21] Sharif, that's Larry.
[4:23] So I do have a chance to see you.
[4:26] Are we, as board members, to select in a random question,
[4:29] each of early age board members, if you would choose one,
[4:32] and
[4:42] then to refupper is known,
[4:55] I'm honest,
[4:55] and to
[4:59] be with you, I'm
[5:14] sharing with us
[5:15] the next three and a half months to complete
[5:18] to
[5:28] ask one question of you. I'm going to ask you to give us a brief introduction.
[5:35] In court members will choose from the same list as we should use as well. And after we
[5:42] have heard
[5:48] candidates,
[5:51] we ask if it's possible to stay or the decision of the board.
[5:55] I
[5:58] think to ask,
[6:02] I mean, you keep calling me, you're ever fast about it and all about it.
[6:10] What is the problem?
[6:11] I feel if you
[6:15] would start it off, but then to Dr. Land, each one of you will choose one of the 10s in Board Member Harris and then Board Member Dr. Schoen.
[6:27] So good afternoon, welcome.
[6:31] I have questions number five.
[6:34] After reviewing, it is just a significant topic,
[6:37] such as finance, academics, school safety.
[6:41] How would you manage a situation
[6:43] in which your vote does not align with the majority?
[6:46] Understanding that the DPSCD board
[6:49] operates by majority vote.
[6:52] Get forward to that question.
[6:54] Good afternoon, Bishop Vaughan,
[6:57] I remember Brian, Reverend Dr. Blaine, Dr. Short,
[7:00] and I remember Harris.
[7:01] Thank you for the opportunity to introduce you.
[7:09] Regarding question five,
[7:11] I did not bring up printed copies,
[7:12] but I just want to make sure that I have the piece
[7:16] after reviewing finances.
[7:19] Can you repeat that one more time
[7:19] just so that I have it?
[7:20] After reviewing and discussing significant topics
[7:23] such as finance, academics, and school spaces,
[7:27] how would you manage a situation
[7:28] in which your vote does not align with the majority,
[7:32] understanding that the DPSCD board operates
[7:35] by a majority vote.
[7:38] So, how I would handle that is,
[7:41] I would say leading with the state
[7:47] not necessarily me,
[7:51] I recognize that seven board members bring seven unique,
[7:55] for
[7:59] me, it's going to be important,
[8:02] prior to the board meeting,
[8:04] to review all of the data and facts,
[8:06] to review the policies,
[8:08] and to also take into consideration, you know, sort of stakeholder to
[8:17] arrive at the
[8:19] opening where decisions are deliberated. Here, the perspective of the six other board
[8:27] members and be open to having my position swayed, understanding that our democratic process
[8:36] that once the vote is taken, that that majority vote is final business, and so
[8:44] relationship
[8:50] board members are ability to work together as a team, and then it
[8:55] should not interrupt the business of in the case where I might have a dissenting
[9:05] opinion, I would respect
[9:10] this matter in
[9:14] policy. There
[9:20] are some cautions and
[9:22] that come to be such that it may look like,
[9:25] hey, we may need to revisit this vote,
[9:28] then I would respectfully raise that to the board
[9:31] and our deliberations as things move along.
[9:34] Great, thank you.
[9:42] Cool, and thank you for just
[9:48] giving the fact that
[9:49] you don't
[10:16] want to have a vote.
[10:18] Okay,
[10:21] so thank you for that question.
[10:24] Today, I bring 25 years of experience.
[10:39] I actually served there as a decade, over a decade,
[10:41] providing enrichment after school services, summer camp,
[10:45] and I did that throughout undergrad as well as graduate school.
[10:52] I would offer, when I returned home to Detroit in 2015,
[10:56] my career because of, I would say, the state of DPSED
[10:59] and the new formation of the school board,
[11:04] the sort of history of emergency management
[11:06] and seeing what it transpired the 14 years that I was away,
[11:12] I became deeply involved civically
[11:15] volunteering, the volunteering on school board campaigns early on, and then also working
[11:23] in both the nonprofit and education space,
[11:30] our partners of DPS.
[11:32] The first one is Teen Hype Youth Development.
[11:34] I was a manager of middle school health initiatives, and so we provided sexual health education
[11:42] to eight schools and DPS CD.
[11:46] had the opportunity to serve as the senior director,
[11:50] and I kind of worked my, you know,
[11:52] work through time, but I wasn't hired as a senior director,
[11:54] but served as a senior director
[11:57] of government and community affairs,
[11:59] where I had the opportunity to liaise
[12:03] and rebuild the district's relationship with Lansing.
[12:06] I was a registered lobbyist agent for DPSCD.
[12:11] I served in the school lobby group,
[12:13] which means you get to kind of be a part
[12:16] of the inside politics. It helped to advocate for the needs of Michigan students. And then also
[12:22] manage that third party lobbying contract. And that was during COVID at a very pivotal time
[12:29] where there were lots of school policies that needed to be changed. We needed to suspend a number
[12:35] of laws such as seat time rules. And so I have a very fond experience of reading every three to 400
[12:43] pages of the school and budget do it joyfully every year as soon as it comes out and I took that
[12:49] experience with me to city year another education nonprofit that partners with now 17 schools and
[12:58] DPSCB providing academic social emotional learning. So I am in the school
[13:07] a community member but I've
[13:09] and also been in the schools as a non-profit executive.
[13:13] And I'm starving in some of the most high-need communities.
[13:17] I think one of the things that I saw early on,
[13:19] even with city year, was that we didn't have a lot of,
[13:23] we didn't have a footprint on the east side of Detroit.
[13:26] So we said yes to purging when Ronald Brown was going
[13:29] through a difficult transition.
[13:33] We were called in the middle of the school year
[13:36] In December to say, can city year go and serve to help provide stability?
[13:42] And so through my professional experience, we were able to garner new resources from
[13:47] the state of Michigan, the state of Michigan invested nearly $7 million in city year to
[13:54] help expand city year in DPSCD to
[14:01] say that I wrote that legislation, I learned
[14:08] that type
[14:09] of experience, you know, building statewide coalition to this work, friends from West Michigan,
[14:16] friends from Northern Michigan that I have worked with previously because the the challenges
[14:22] that we're facing in Detroit, they too are facing them up north out west, etc.
[14:28] I'll
[14:30] say transparently I have departed city year and I'm transitioning to a youth mental
[14:36] help
[14:39] partner with the Department of Michigan, Michigan Department of Health and Human Services
[14:45] and they will be providing mental health services to young people ages 13 to age.
[14:57] are often school wanting to be more public health.
[15:00] So I'm finding my way back to that thing that I originally, you know, pursued higher ed for. But it has been my pleasure to serve the Detroit community. And I would just be honored to partner with you all and bring, you know, a lens and relationships with landscape relationships with other large cities. City here has 29 cities across the country.
[15:29] And so, you know, I could quickly, you know, usually pick up the phone and say, how are
[15:34] you all dealing with this in Cleveland?
[15:36] How are you all dealing with this in Milwaukee?
[15:38] You know, the challenges that we're addressing with facilities, they're dealing with them
[15:44] in other large urban districts across the country.
[15:48] So the experience of having worked in a national nonprofit, I also said in the legislative liaison
[15:55] seat for the Council of Great City Schools.
[15:57] and just developed a wealth of knowledge at a national level, at a state-wide level,
[16:06] and you know, policy is my thing.
[16:08] It really is my thing because when we get down to how we solve it,
[16:14] yes, we have to have fiscal management here locally, but we've got to advocate.
[16:19] When I first started in the word, foundation allowance was just about $7,000.
[16:23] $10,300.
[16:24] It's now $10,300, and that happened extremely fast in five years, but it's still not enough.
[16:31] We're still trying to figure out where we're going to do another billion dollars, and
[16:37] this administration has added more funding to our state budget, more than they had done
[16:43] in two decades.
[16:44] So I bring that sense of passion for the work at a macro scale, but also I live in the
[16:54] community, I live on the east side of Detroit, and I'm ingrained in it, you know, I'm
[17:02] wholeheartedly committed to ensure that every young person and every community has an opportunity
[17:09] the thrive. It gets a great education. The education was the thing that made success possible,
[17:17] and I say that kind of lightly.
[17:25] Thank you. Good afternoon. The landscape of public education
[17:30] is recently challenged. What do you see as the most significant challenges currently facing our
[17:41] our school district.
[17:43] Excellent.
[17:47] I just want to make sure I have this remembered.
[17:54] The most significant challenge is I would name three,
[17:57] but they're all intermingled is our first business,
[18:01] academic achievement, academic achievement,
[18:05] equitable and sustainable funding,
[18:07] and the socio-economic status of our city
[18:11] and the community with which we live.
[18:14] I start with academics and say that we
[18:17] We can celebrate progress and to say that, yes, the district has made strides, achieving
[18:23] the highest graduation rate of 83%, you know, this past, and for 2026, this past graduation
[18:33] year, showing improvement in reading proficiency and ELA proficiency on the M stuff.
[18:43] However, we also have to look at out is that one in students are going to be
[18:53] proficient in ELA that one in one in four will be proficient in math. Sorry let's
[19:01] get that right because it's about 25% and one in five will be proficient in ELA so
[19:08] So 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, there's 14 of us.
[19:17] Our proficient in reading and math and four of us,
[19:23] like that is in crisis.
[19:25] Michigan is 44th in the nation.
[19:28] We are going backwards.
[19:29] And so I think the last superintendent's presentation
[19:32] at the August board meeting showed that DPSCD is making
[19:37] gains in proficiency, but the thing is going backwards, right? And that's a great
[19:44] set, but that's a criteria that they're not prepared for.
[20:01] Where is
[20:05] that?
[20:06] While
[20:16] efficiency is not growing, yes
[20:20] students are growing in the ELA, 60% math.
[20:23] Yes, they're growing. They're growing
[20:27] one grade levels, which is our
[20:29] patients
[20:39] that are starting to school your two or more grade levels behind.
[20:50] Two or
[20:51] career. I've got to go to college and I've got to take classes for remediation. I can't even go
[20:58] into, if I want to be a science major, I can't go straight into my sciences because there
[21:06] are
[21:06] a mass part
[21:15] of it, but it is a crisis. This state has to sound the alarm,
[21:41] so I'll get superintendents
[21:42] for school. Let
[21:48] me get to mention is some things that are there, but we've got to do a little bit more
[21:53] to
[22:03] get strategic about that. And that's some things that we have been, and that gets into the
[22:08] equitable funding. Equitable, sustainable, and sufficient funding. Yes, funding has
[22:14] increased year over year. Yes, the foundation allowance is $10,300, $10,300. But it also follows
[22:23] enrollment. So we're always chasing enrollment. And there is this thing that if the district's
[22:30] enrollment goes down, our budget can flop at any enrollment. And so I think policy-wise
[22:36] you've got to look at a declining enrollment stabilization factor that you
[22:41] maybe take that
[22:44] your budget you just don't drop.
[22:50] I should be added into how we
[22:52] fund our school.
[22:57] And yes, the school research finance collaborative says that
[23:00] we should have a weighted funding formula. We have unfunded mandates. IDA says that
[23:07] we have to provide special education services to our students, the federal
[23:14] government promises 40% reimbursement but it looks more like 12% to 13%. The state of Michigan
[23:20] reimburses us for a special education at funding
[23:27] gap, for special education and all those
[23:29] needs. There's about a $28 million funding gap for DPSCD alone and a $1 billion funding gap
[23:37] for the state of Michigan dollar
[23:40] budget.
[23:50] Whoever goes there, we can find that $1 billion to fund
[24:05] I
[24:07] love it. I love it. I don't want you to go out of time. Yes, ma'am. Dr. Schor.
[24:12] You are next up, which question are you presenting?
[24:22] It was in a lot of season.
[24:24] Number 10 is
[24:28] this limited amount of time.
[24:30] Are you committed to attending a monthly meeting study session?
[24:40] I put the 10 meetings that are already scheduled on my calendar
[24:43] and move the trip to Italy over
[24:48] on it.
[24:49] You're
[24:52] being invited to the lab.
[24:55] about
[25:08] the current board
[25:12] superintendent relationship.
[25:14] Oh, that's a great question.
[25:15] Oh, that's a great question.
[25:17] Oh, that's a great question.
[25:19] The
[25:23] legislative body, the superintendent administers, right?
[25:29] And so when I think about the current relationship,
[25:32] I
[25:35] think that it's,
[25:40] but I do think that there is
[25:52] an understanding
[25:53] and an ear side to the community and the board expertise,
[25:56] and that be a two-fold relationship, that is symbiotic.
[26:01] So I do,
[26:06] the board should be governing close enough
[26:10] to know what's happening, doing the walkthrough of the warehouse
[26:12] for
[26:17] a tenage job.
[26:19] And the board should be holding these superintendent accountable,
[26:22] and you all are doing that.
[26:24] So that, I would say, I think that the board,
[26:27] this is a, I think maybe a different temperature,
[26:29] But I do think that this is a positive direction where, you know, there is more of a sense of urgency to make sure that we are moving this district forward and we're leading the needs of our students in this community and we're listening deeply and we're paying attention.
[26:48] We can't ignore the cries of our folks.
[26:52] I'm
[27:08] gonna take Barack Obama, but I believe that I believe that this call,
[27:34] I was in high schools
[28:43] and I will, you know, say your
[29:03] couple minutes of
[29:09] community,
[29:13] you know, what a deal for me.
[29:18] Thank you all, God bless you and thank you for your service.
[29:21] Thank you.
[29:22] Thank you.
[29:27] Thank you for that.
[29:29] Okay.
[29:44] I'm gonna ask every spot.
[30:07] So, we need to be heard when you think that all.
[30:12] So, we should reduce it to 20 points.
[30:52] We're
[30:53] I know, I know we hit that stage.
[30:55] Yeah, we are at 3.30.
[30:56] What is it?
[30:57] I'm looking.
[30:58] I have no time to answer.
[31:01] Oh, God, it's a piece of idea.
[31:02] Well, we've got every member's job term
[31:04] with so much more energy.
[31:08] Hey, it's the right name.
[31:09] But you're at the principal.
[31:10] I know you're a thing.
[31:14] Come on in.
[31:15] You're welcome.
[31:16] Welcome back to the table.
[31:20] So much.
[31:21] Toggy fans, no, thank you so much for joining us.
[31:28] We are at 3.31.
[31:29] One board member, about
[31:33] the lighted about 20 from
[31:57] last year's information already.
[32:01] However, board member Harris and board member plan were not present.
[32:06] So we will start with them to change because they aren't new to meeting you.
[32:11] But again,
[32:15] service and your commitment to the city Detroit and our children that can change
[32:21] and they want to celebrate you.
[32:23] I will start with Dr. C. Blaine,
[32:31] I'm going to start with Dr.
[32:35] C. Harris, we'll go to the
[32:37] community to come back to Portland to buy it and I'll conclude it.
[32:41] So we'll go to the open statement and then Dr. Blaine will ask you your first question.
[33:01] Of course, then, the tutor is
[33:31] furthering on the financial side in
[33:41] time.
[34:06] We're going to go to Dr. Blaine, which course is it?
[34:20] Dr. Harris,
[34:25] I'm doing number six, right?
[34:27] Thank you,
[34:36] this relationship, including the birth
[34:39] for its relationship.
[35:06] Not sure.
[35:28] I'm really unsure on the right.
[35:30] The potentials are actually not
[35:45] a care for it,
[35:46] so that they can continue to produce the balance
[35:49] to the doubt that
[35:53] we have many of them.
[35:59] I'm trying to
[36:02] question number five.
[36:04] After reviewing and discussing significant topics,
[36:08] such as finance, academics,
[36:13] you manage a situation
[36:15] in which your vote does not align with the majority.
[36:19] Understanding that the DTSC people operate
[36:22] by a majority's vote.
[36:37] There it hurts, then at the board decide
[36:40] I follow and stand and stand by.
[36:48] What's it about?
[36:49] Quite few, no in terms of the board,
[36:53] superintendent relationship,
[37:08] November, December.
[37:11] He filled the board, superintendent relationship,
[37:14] took
[37:20] up any interest.
[37:23] My role in the board was not with the
[37:30] majority.
[37:30] I'm sure that are superintendent
[37:32] and actually following the policies and standards that we put in place and that we're actually
[37:37] living up to what we're saying about that, that we're doing in these following, or he or she is
[37:42] following our standards.
[37:46] Thank you very much. Well, thank you so much. You got the viewers really,
[37:49] really fast. That's the power of you to the point.
[38:00] If there are any additional closing statements
[38:04] if you would like to make terms of just to the board.
[38:10] I'm going to say thank you for your time.
[38:12] My grandmother taught for DPM City for 32, two years.
[38:15] I don't know if we're going to get an opportunity to keep coming up here
[38:17] and trying really out.
[38:32] Oh, wow.
[38:33] Good.
[38:34] Who can move?
[38:35] Yes.
[38:36] You're
[38:45] sitting there still remember?
[38:46] Yes.
[38:47] Thank you very much.
[38:48] Thank you.
[38:49] We appreciate you for coming.
[38:50] Thank you.
[38:52] Thank you.
[38:52] Let me know that you.
[38:56] Oh, yes.
[38:57] You know?
[38:57] So you know, no, no, no, I'll
[39:06] take a breath and do our tally, I'll take a breath, so
[39:13] but the breath is, it's no discussion that anyone would have among ourselves.
[39:19] I'm just going to make sure we have our direction, which is writing numbers down.
[39:22] We're not putting our names on anything in the red bin.
[39:25] I'll be just fold them.
[39:29] Okay.
[39:29] Oh,
[39:32] I remember.
[39:38] Y'all remember?
[39:39] We
[39:48] put our total score out of the net.
[39:54] Fold it.
[39:56] Then we're eliminating it.
[39:59] Then a 30?
