And they do not receive any additional compensa,

127
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:27,280
if they are a national board certified, which most of them are.

128
00:16:28,540 --> 00:16:35,760
They work 10 to 12 hours a day and forty six hours on Saturdays.

129
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:38,780
40,000 y 20,000 de�.

Y ya recable había que decir que la vida de la vida es muy begecionada.

00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:55,700
Yo soy una situación para el que ocurrió en la vida de la vida de la vida

who worked frantically on him until EMS arrived.

147
00:17:28,550 --> 00:17:31,610
But I'd like to tell you a story about one of those trainers.

148
00:17:32,170 --> 00:17:35,870
Her name is Lili Pedales, and that night at the football game

149
00:17:35,870 --> 00:17:39,170
was not the first time that she saved a life.

150
00:17:39,770 --> 00:17:43,170
Mi volleyball team fue plane a Dina Hettle,

151
00:17:44,010 --> 00:17:45,810

152
00:17:45,950 --> 00:17:47,370
por uno de los ejemplos que fue injured.

153
00:17:47,790 --> 00:17:51,110
He came back, handed the Ice to my player,

154
00:17:51,790 --> 00:17:53,290
walked behind my bench,

155
00:17:53,910 --> 00:17:54,870
and fell over.

156
00:17:56,050 --> 00:17:57,310

157
00:17:57,850 --> 00:18:01,650
and I'm CPR certified all our coaches are,

158
00:18:01,910 --> 00:18:03,410
and I thought, oh my god,

159
00:18:03,710 --> 00:18:04,370
what do I do?

160
00:18:05,050 --> 00:18:08,290
Luckily, Lily's daughter placed for me.

161
00:18:08,290 --> 00:18:11,130
En el heart beat, por el tiempo que hacía a mí,

162
00:18:11,170 --> 00:18:13,690
él era de haber llegado a trabajar en el hevo,

163
00:18:13,690 --> 00:18:15,890
working en el hevo en el EMSK,

164
00:18:15,890 --> 00:18:17,530

Y PISD athletic trainers son heroes,

00:18:22,010 --> 00:18:24,090
como como el que se dice de Marjámen.

167
00:18:24,470 --> 00:18:26,410
Let's pay them what they are worth

168
00:18:26,410 --> 00:18:28,510
because our students deserve the best.

169
00:18:28,890 --> 00:18:29,670
Thank you.

00:18:35,610 --> 00:18:36,550
Channel long.

171
00:18:49,140 --> 00:18:51,020
Board President Ideal Li, Board Members,

172
00:18:51,120 --> 00:18:51,960
and Ms. Ayavidra,

173
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:53,220
My name is Shayna Long.

174
00:18:53,740 --> 00:18:55,620
I stand before you today to address

175
00:18:55,620 --> 00:18:57,640
the concerns that shape my decision

176
00:18:57,640 --> 00:18:59,160
to resign as a certified teacher

177
00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:01,300
within the El Paso Independent School District.

178
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:04,240
Teachers are often treated as ponds,

179
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:06,960
moved at the will of the district administration and principles

180
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:09,220
with little regard for our individual well-being.

181
00:19:09,900 --> 00:19:11,780
We are shifted from one assignment to another,

182
00:19:12,140 --> 00:19:14,380
merely to fill gaps or made administrative convenience

183
00:19:14,380 --> 00:19:18,980
without consideration of the impact on our mental and emotional health.

184
00:19:18,980 --> 00:19:46,020
De esta forma de rellenar la extranjidad de la extranjidad de nuestra

185
00:19:46,020 --> 00:19:46,940
de colaboración.

186
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:48,700
This creates an environment

187
00:19:48,700 --> 00:19:50,140
where individuals prioritize

188
00:19:50,140 --> 00:19:51,120
their own advancement

189
00:19:51,120 --> 00:19:52,720
over the needs of the students.

190
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:54,600
This self-centred approach

191
00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:56,080
undermines our collective efforts

192
00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:57,900
in our mission to provide quality

193
00:19:57,900 --> 00:19:58,660
education.

194
00:19:59,460 --> 00:19:59,980
It is crucial.

195
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:04,880
Local for leaders to uphold transparency and honesty to maintain a healthy working environment.

196
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:11,620
School administrators should be held responsible for leading rather than leaving others to clean up their mess.

197
00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:18,520
The workload expectation placed upon teachers, especially special education teachers, have become unmanageable.

198
00:20:19,120 --> 00:20:27,760
We are expected to perform the roles of both general education teachers and special education case managers, effectively doing the work of two professionals.

199
00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:33,840
I was often left in the classroom with no support from paraprofessionals and spent months being physically assaulted

200
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:35,840
without administrative intervention.

201
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:45,260
The environmental, physical, and emotional workload left a little time for adequate planning, preparation, and individualized attention for my students.

202
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:49,160
Ultimately compromising the quality of education I was able to provide.

203
00:20:51,810 --> 00:20:55,610
The unchecked behavior of certain students and the continued abuse from some parent

204
00:20:55,610 --> 00:20:58,310
significant attributed to my decision to resign.

205
00:20:59,230 --> 00:21:03,130
The absence of appropriate consequences for disruptive and disrespectful student behavior

206
00:21:03,130 --> 00:21:07,490
coupled with the lack of support from parents and school administration created an

207
00:21:07,490 --> 00:21:11,930
environment that affected my ability to teach effectively and led to high anxiety and stress

208
00:21:11,930 --> 00:21:12,430
levels.

209
00:21:12,790 --> 00:21:16,770
Personally, I spent the last four months of my teaching career wanting to drive off the spaghetti

210
00:21:16,770 --> 00:21:17,530
bold daily.

211
00:21:18,370 --> 00:21:22,010
I have needed serious medical interventions since leaving the classroom, and this brings

212
00:21:22,010 --> 00:21:23,070
me to my final point.

213
00:21:23,070 --> 00:21:27,790
There are serious concerns about unjust targeting and investigative practices resulting in an

214
00:21:27,790 --> 00:21:30,830
environment characterized by suspicion, fear, and undistress.

215
00:21:31,330 --> 00:21:35,390
It is necessary to resolve the ways that the investigative system is being used by administrators

216
00:21:35,390 --> 00:21:38,230
to punish teachers rather than investigate wrongs.

217
00:21:38,530 --> 00:21:42,650
It is imperative that there are be safeguards to protect teachers from ill-intentioned administrators

218
00:21:42,650 --> 00:21:43,930
and vengeful investigators.

219
00:21:44,690 --> 00:21:48,770
In the district's best interest, it should ensure that investigation timelines are adequately

220
00:21:48,770 --> 00:21:53,330
followed so that teachers are not left on administrative leave as a means to force compliance

221
00:21:53,330 --> 00:21:54,650
with the status quo.

222
00:21:55,150 --> 00:21:59,170
That the recommendations of teams such as the Special Education Department and Child Protective

223
00:21:59,170 --> 00:22:03,690
Services be weighed more heavily than heavily than the biased opinion of an administrator

224
00:22:03,690 --> 00:22:04,730
with event data.

225
00:22:05,570 --> 00:22:10,110
As an educator, it was my primary goal to provide students with a safe and nurturing learning

226
00:22:10,110 --> 00:22:10,710
environment.

227
00:22:11,430 --> 00:22:15,310
Unfortunately, the current circumstances within the El Paso Independent School District, as

228
00:22:15,310 --> 00:22:18,930
experience to them, prevent me from fulfilling this mission effectively.

229
00:22:19,330 --> 00:22:20,910
Thank you, Ms. Long. Your three minutes is up.

230
00:22:21,850 --> 00:22:22,650
Thank you.

231
00:22:29,460 --> 00:22:30,580
Ross Moore.

232
00:22:45,370 --> 00:22:49,850
Board President and Irabali Board members, Messiah Vadra, my name is Ross Moore, President

233
00:22:49,850 --> 00:22:56,710
of El Paso AFT. First, I want to give credit by the way, all of you have a copy of a document.

234
00:22:56,890 --> 00:23:01,870
It's in a package, board President and Irabali, that I'm going to refer to. I want to make

235
00:23:01,870 --> 00:23:08,610
sure you got an unfiltered version of it, and verify what I'm saying is real, not made up.

236
00:23:09,090 --> 00:23:13,610
Okay, I want to give credit where credit is to, I have made minor changes and put a boundary

237
00:23:13,610 --> 00:23:16,010
on employee relation scalp hunters.

238
00:23:16,830 --> 00:23:20,230
This, according to sources, includes a 10-day limit on investigations.

239
00:23:21,010 --> 00:23:23,990
This is long over two, thank you very much.

240
00:23:25,290 --> 00:23:30,610
Based on that, my expectation is that HR will ignore the soup as they have done a lot lately,

241
00:23:30,610 --> 00:23:36,370
and don't want employee representatives to know the changes so they can continue to live up to

242
00:23:36,370 --> 00:23:42,950
look at LeBrentis and Crito. LeBrenti Barraia was the head of Stalin's dreaded secret police.

243
00:23:43,490 --> 00:23:47,550
He's a man best known for millions of deaths and this quote,

244
00:23:48,070 --> 00:23:53,610
show me the man and I'll find you the crime. It seems that seems to be the guiding

245
00:23:53,610 --> 00:23:59,250
Crito for investigations of the two of the employee relations investigators and their bosses,

246
00:23:59,250 --> 00:24:05,810
whether it is targeting of enemies for friends and administration, fabricating evidence, interrogating

247
00:24:05,810 --> 00:24:09,650
children, and encourage them to contact them to report adults and more.

248
00:24:10,170 --> 00:24:17,590
They emulate the NKVD, HR investigators giving kids their cell number and taking kids cell

249
00:24:17,590 --> 00:24:22,550
numbers to report is downright creepy and I'm not sure there's a parent among you it will

250
00:24:22,550 --> 00:24:23,490
want that to happen.

251
00:24:24,810 --> 00:24:29,070
We've already had four incidences of bogus allegations of child abuse.

252
00:24:29,710 --> 00:24:34,550
One were a principal went around collecting cheese meat, about one of her staff and contacted

253
00:24:34,550 --> 00:24:36,770
her friend and HR to help her fire the employee.

254
00:24:37,850 --> 00:24:38,690
Why are these important?

255
00:24:38,930 --> 00:24:43,050
Because CPS investigated and found all four were nothing burgers.

256
00:24:44,090 --> 00:24:50,290
CPS investigators followed the facts to a finding employee relations investigators create

257
00:24:50,290 --> 00:24:52,390
the facts to fit the pre-ordained finding.

258
00:24:53,970 --> 00:24:57,830
What did two of the HR investigators and their bosses do?

259
00:24:58,130 --> 00:24:59,750
Said CPS is not good enough.

260
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:05,560
They continue to persecute their targets, trying to find something, anything to get them.

261
00:25:06,300 --> 00:25:09,640
Where did they get such authority? They gave it to themselves.

262
00:25:12,050 --> 00:25:14,070
Are these investigators sworn police

263
00:25:14,070 --> 00:25:21,930
officers, certified sworn police officers, or DFPS employees? No. T.E.A. is very clear, and

264
00:25:21,930 --> 00:25:26,910
that's the book that I gave you, T.E.A. guidelines, is very clear about how to handle reports

265
00:25:26,910 --> 00:25:29,370
a child abuse and who is responsible for what?

266
00:25:29,890 --> 00:25:32,010
A couple of key extracts, quote,

267
00:25:32,630 --> 00:25:34,770
leave the detailed questioning of department,

268
00:25:35,090 --> 00:25:37,590
to the department of family and protective services

269
00:25:37,590 --> 00:25:38,510
and law enforcement.

270
00:25:39,330 --> 00:25:42,850
This is critical to ensure the integrity of any investigation

271
00:25:42,850 --> 00:25:46,050
and minimize additional trauma to the child.

272
00:25:46,890 --> 00:25:46,910
Time.

273
00:25:48,450 --> 00:25:49,430
It is real quickly.

274
00:25:49,670 --> 00:25:53,410
It is the responsibility of DFPS to investigate

275
00:25:53,410 --> 00:25:57,690
and abuse child, child abuse, not school employees.

276
00:25:58,110 --> 00:25:59,850
I ask for the reforms.

277
00:26:00,290 --> 00:26:01,110
Thank you very much.

278
00:26:02,290 --> 00:26:03,710
And if you want a picture of Lovante,

279
00:26:03,890 --> 00:26:05,150
I've got a couple for sale.

280
00:26:12,700 --> 00:26:13,720
Norma de la Rosa.

281
00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:27,620
Good afternoon, Mr. Erovali.

282
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:29,340
Members of the Board, Ms. Sajrza.

283
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,340
I am Norma de la Rosa, President of El Paso

284
00:26:32,340 --> 00:26:33,420
Teachers Association.

285
00:26:34,380 --> 00:26:36,200
Since the start of this school year,

286
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:40,040
I have had at least one call a week, sometimes more,

287
00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:45,660
in which teachers are telling me that they have been hit, shoved, or pushed by a student

288
00:26:45,660 --> 00:26:46,660
on their campus.

289
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:50,400
Yet the following day, the student back in their class.

290
00:26:51,100 --> 00:26:52,080
I have two concerns.

291
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:58,100
One, there are no consequences for the student, or if there is a consequence, it's not severe

292
00:26:58,100 --> 00:27:04,040
enough to make the student understand that our employees are not to be assaulted in any form

293
00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:04,720
or manner.

294
00:27:05,360 --> 00:27:09,540
It seems there are many reasons, but the prevalent one is they didn't like what the teacher

295
00:27:09,540 --> 00:27:15,160
ask them to do or we're angry because of a decision made by another teacher.

296
00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:21,120
When consequences are not applied, students now believe they can do what they want.

297
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:23,980
The second concern is this.

298
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:28,360
Now my members are being investigated or placed under investigation.

299
00:27:29,120 --> 00:27:29,520
Why?

300
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:35,120
And why does it take so long to conclude these investigations to the point that some of them

301
00:27:35,120 --> 00:27:40,060
in their reassignment for three, four, maybe five weeks or maybe more.

302
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:45,540
I have heard rumors that there are changes coming down related to how long that an investigation

303
00:27:45,540 --> 00:27:48,600
should be done and concluded 10 days.

304
00:27:49,380 --> 00:27:52,920
I'm hoping that this is not a rumor, but it's becoming a reality.

305
00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:58,660
Teachers wait this out for an extended period of time and I feel it's being done to either

306
00:27:58,660 --> 00:28:04,580
see how patient my member is or how long they can wait it out or it's hope that they will

307
00:28:04,580 --> 00:28:07,780
get tired and decide to resign so that there will be closure.

308
00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:11,100
So in conclusion, I ask two things.

309
00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:18,440
One, do not send out the wrong message to our students that it is okay to assault any employee

310
00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:24,520
in our district and that there are severe consequences and two, please put a time limit

311
00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:26,940
a how long investigation is last.

312
00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:28,700
Thank you.

313
00:28:28,700 --> 00:28:29,980
Thank you.

314
00:28:32,970 --> 00:28:33,670
Susan Maseyus.

315
00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:49,900
Who do you need for President Irobali board members and Mr. Savedra?

316
00:28:50,420 --> 00:28:51,700
My name is Susan Maseyus.

317
00:28:52,220 --> 00:28:56,140
I work for EPSD from 1997 to 2017.

318
00:28:57,160 --> 00:29:00,640
I come here today with concerns about the hiring practices of the district.

319
00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:05,920
It was brought to my attention by an applicant that a position at El Paso High School was

320
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:07,200
being handled with bias.

321
00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:12,440
The issue at hand is that there are no guidelines or district policy when it comes to

322
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:18,140
assembly interview committees. Currently, campus principals are given leeway to assemble

323
00:29:18,140 --> 00:29:22,680
interview committees. That is too much power for the principal to have.

324
00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:30,940
We should have representation of student body, alumni, parent, or community. This would serve

325
00:29:30,940 --> 00:29:37,500
as a checks and balances aspect to the hiring process to eliminate bias in the selection process.

326
00:29:37,500 --> 00:29:44,100
I was made aware that a position that was vacated by employee, by an employee, was posted and closed.

327
00:29:44,740 --> 00:29:46,000
Applicants were then interviewed.

328
00:29:46,500 --> 00:29:49,600
The job was reposted the day after interviews were completed.

329
00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:56,480
Two of the applicants interviewed were told that the former employee who resigned days before school started,

330
00:29:56,900 --> 00:29:59,980
had approached the campus and let them know that they wanted their job.

331
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:12,900
The former employee did indeed reply again for the job when it was reposted. That, in itself, raises suspicion. In the employees' resignation letter, they stated,

332
00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:25,820
I want to spend my children's last year's at home as an active parent in their lives. I cannot do both. I tried. It is time for me to focus on my health and well-being and that of my families.

333
00:30:25,820 --> 00:30:34,180
Why I ask with a district we hire someone who basically told you that they can't do the job and be a good parent is beyond me.

334
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:37,240
This is not fair for the students who deserve better.

335
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:41,520
Where was the concern for the students when the employee resigned?

336
00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:46,420
Their vital position days before the school started, school year started.

337
00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:49,880
According to the applicant, before the second set of interviews,

338
00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:57,040
and employee on campus was going around telling faculty, cheerleader, student council members that the employee was coming back.

339
00:30:57,660 --> 00:30:59,900
This is an ethical and shows bias.

340
00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:06,440
The fact that a former employee re-applied within a month of resigning gives the appearance of impropriety.

341
00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:15,120
I ask you to look into this matter seriously, not superficially, because it is your job to restore trust in the community

342
00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:21,460
And to ensure that the district is acting in the best interest of students, not informing alliances.

343
00:31:22,180 --> 00:31:28,040
It is your task to change the culture that existed under the two previous superintendents

344
00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:33,860
who were, who were the culture, culture was that people were hired based on who they knew,

345
00:31:34,180 --> 00:31:35,160
not what they knew.

346
00:31:35,820 --> 00:31:40,240
I ask you, please, to look into this, our kids deserve better.

347
00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:41,120
Thank you.

348
00:31:42,180 --> 00:31:42,820
Thank you.

349
00:31:42,820 --> 00:31:43,880
This

350
00:31:49,350 --> 00:31:57,770
will take, before I go to item number six, I do have announcement that agenda item 7A was withdrawn from the agenda.

351
00:31:58,970 --> 00:32:01,830
And that will take us to item 6, which is the consent agenda.

352
00:32:02,070 --> 00:32:05,350
I do have two items of public comment on that.

353
00:32:05,650 --> 00:32:13,290
We'll go to that first, so that's Mr. Ross Moore on item 6C1 adoption of proposed changes to DEA local.

354
00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:29,840
Board President Error Bolly, Board Members, Messiah Vedra, my name is Ross Moore, President

355
00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:31,260
El Paso AFT.

356
00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:36,300
I urge you to vote for these changes that will hopefully bring about much needed oversight

357
00:32:36,300 --> 00:32:41,220
and transparency of compensation, management, and decision-making.

358
00:32:41,740 --> 00:32:46,780
Hopefully, increased oversight and less autonomy will change that and I want to give you

359
00:32:46,780 --> 00:32:50,260
all a sincere thank you for bringing these changes forward.

360
00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:56,700
I have to remind you, Ms. Ayavadra, that when members get mad about something EPSD has done

361
00:32:56,700 --> 00:33:01,880
to them, yours is the only face and name that pops into their minds, and you are the focus

362
00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:06,980
of their anger, not the functionaries, who actually did the damage whether you knew about

363
00:33:06,980 --> 00:33:14,140
it or not. First reaction to this was one. This is a response to the problems in controversy,

364
00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:20,780
The CHCMO and her executive directors have been creating for over a year that have sorely damaged

365
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:24,080
EPSD's reputation and broken employee morale.

366
00:33:25,260 --> 00:33:31,360
Two, these changes can be a very good thing or a very, very bad thing for EPSD and its employees

367
00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:33,060
depending on how they are implemented.

368
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:39,160
Three, it raises a question, why do we need a human capital management office of

369
00:33:40,380 --> 00:33:44,760
$175,000 a year plus a $10,000 stipend.

370
00:33:45,460 --> 00:33:51,660
These have been, there have been a series of actions by the CMO, that appear to be, and

371
00:33:51,660 --> 00:33:58,320
her staff appear to be a deliberate effort to anger employees, break morale, and embarrass

372
00:33:58,320 --> 00:33:59,180
the PISD.

373
00:33:59,380 --> 00:34:04,480
I can draw only one of two conclusions as to why, neither good.

374
00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:12,260
both are include official oppression, and whether it's incompetence, negligence, or a deliberate

375
00:34:12,260 --> 00:34:15,480
attempt, they are damaging the district.

376
00:34:16,660 --> 00:34:22,340
Potential outcomes I see for passing these changes, maybe the CHCMO gets the hint and ends

377
00:34:22,340 --> 00:34:25,200
the chattel-like treatment of employees, too.

378
00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:31,280
Maybe the CHCMO will hide behind not being the superintendents' destiny and continue to treat

379
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:34,480
employees like Chattel and then blame it on the superintendent.

380
00:34:35,180 --> 00:34:39,880
I watched that play out 21 years ago in the other in this district.

381
00:34:40,260 --> 00:34:45,660
Maybe the Super Board will clean house in HR and replace the CXCMO and senior functioners

382
00:34:45,660 --> 00:34:52,660
with people who realize that the education job market is no longer based on be grateful

383
00:34:52,660 --> 00:34:57,780
you have a job and want to support not suppress or oppress employees.

384
00:34:57,780 --> 00:34:59,960
I will note that a nearby...

385
00:35:00,180 --> 00:35:18,220
District in the nearby state is offering $15,000 signing bonus and a $3,500 real relocation allowance for teachers and EPSD as 128 open teacher positions being advertised.

386
00:35:18,860 --> 00:35:27,740
Thank you very much. This can be a very, very good change if done right. And I hope it is. Thank you.

387
00:35:27,740 --> 00:35:29,540
Thank you.

388
00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:34,760
I do want to remind the public that personal attacks are not appropriate for public comment,

389
00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:35,880
especially when speaking on item.

390
00:35:36,260 --> 00:35:37,940
So I'd ask that your comments refrain from that.

391
00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:38,960
Thank you.

392
00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:44,400
And the other speaker I have on this item is Ms. Norma de La Rosa.

393
00:35:56,390 --> 00:35:56,790
Good afternoon.

394
00:35:56,950 --> 00:35:57,890
Again, Mr. De Obelie.

395
00:35:57,910 --> 00:36:00,390
Members of the Board, Ms. Saivea, that I'm Norma de La Rosa.

396
00:36:00,570 --> 00:36:02,390
President of El Paso Teachers Association.

397
00:36:03,290 --> 00:36:05,910
First, thank you, Ms. Saivea, that if we're bringing this policy forward,

398
00:36:06,090 --> 00:36:09,430
and it as it is definitely needed to start improving the

399
00:36:09,430 --> 00:36:13,370
operations of the district and hopefully help to improve the morale of our employees.

400
00:36:14,270 --> 00:36:14,830
I met at Mitt.

401
00:36:15,170 --> 00:36:19,150
I was quite surprised to see this on the agenda for this meeting, considering that

402
00:36:19,150 --> 00:36:24,030
October 4th, I, along with my colleague, Mr. Moore attended a meeting with representatives

403
00:36:24,030 --> 00:36:30,150
from HR Finance and a deputy superintendent to discuss our concerns related to compensation

404
00:36:30,150 --> 00:36:34,730
and how the compensation plan is implemented and the procedures used.

405
00:36:34,730 --> 00:36:41,230
Why was I surprised, simply put, we were never informed that this policy was coming forward

406
00:36:41,230 --> 00:36:46,270
two weeks later with the proposed revisions. Am I opposed to these revisions?

407
00:36:46,290 --> 00:36:51,490
Most certainly not. It has come to light only in the last few months that the procedures

408
00:36:51,490 --> 00:36:57,590
used to calculate compensation for a new contract year are more than problematic. The problems

409
00:36:57,590 --> 00:37:02,750
have affected the efficiency and trustworthiness of an entire department. When it select

410
00:37:02,750 --> 00:37:07,650
If you make decisions on how to interpret a directive or in this case supply, pay increases

411
00:37:07,650 --> 00:37:13,230
to the compensation of employees, and it's all done behind closed doors because they have

412
00:37:13,230 --> 00:37:15,850
the power to do so, that is problematic.

413
00:37:16,850 --> 00:37:21,230
We are hearing more and more complaints from members about issues with their pay, and when

414
00:37:21,230 --> 00:37:26,870
I hear from members, it seems that each employee is being given a different story about how

415
00:37:26,870 --> 00:37:28,450
their pay is being calculated.

416
00:37:28,450 --> 00:37:31,130
What is there to gain from this?

417
00:37:31,470 --> 00:37:37,310
Looking at the original policy, giving that much power to a person or a select few, allows

418
00:37:37,310 --> 00:37:39,310
to happen what is happening now.

419
00:37:39,910 --> 00:37:45,430
As I stated, these changes are welcome, particularly striking out the word Dezigni, but

420
00:37:45,430 --> 00:37:48,710
it cannot stop here with just approving policy revisions.

421
00:37:49,350 --> 00:37:52,050
This one action will not solve the bigger issue.

422
00:37:52,610 --> 00:37:58,390
The next step is to put in writing the established procedures, so employees can see exactly

423
00:37:58,390 --> 00:38:03,390
how their pay and their stipends will be calculated. Thank you.

424
00:38:04,210 --> 00:38:10,790
Thank you. That concludes comment on consent items. Do any of the trustees have items they want to pull off consent?

425
00:38:11,430 --> 00:38:12,730
Yes, age.

426
00:38:13,610 --> 00:38:14,990
Item six, age.

427
00:38:15,710 --> 00:38:16,350
Any other items?

428
00:38:17,770 --> 00:38:23,250
Okay, so I will entertain a motion to approve the consent agenda, excluding item six, age.

429
00:38:23,250 --> 00:38:24,070
So moved.

430
00:38:24,310 --> 00:38:28,330
Got the second, second, I have a motion by trusty Henany.

431
00:38:28,330 --> 00:38:30,590
And I need a second by Dr. Alcavado, all in favor.

432
00:38:31,350 --> 00:38:36,090
I, I, that item passes unanimously, six zero with Daniel

433
00:38:36,090 --> 00:38:36,930
called not present.

434
00:38:37,610 --> 00:38:39,470
And that takes us to item six, eight, trusty Henany.

435
00:38:41,450 --> 00:38:42,610
Yes, I have two.

436
00:38:43,610 --> 00:38:46,370
Well, I actually have a question, and then I want to make a motion.

437
00:38:46,570 --> 00:38:49,470
But my first question is on the Thina Heddo.

438
00:38:50,470 --> 00:38:56,810
after school program, does a YWC currently have after school programming there?

439
00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:04,540
Because on this YWCA website at Lestina Heddo has one of the current locations.

440
00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:09,520
Right, and we'll be using it is one of the locations in Heddo is using the Y.

441
00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:12,740
We have on the sites that we're using the Escobar Grant.

442
00:39:13,140 --> 00:39:16,640
For only one of them is a program that we're doing in-house.

443
00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:21,900
the others we either have Parks and Rec or we're using the Y in the case of Tina Heddo.

444
00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:23,880
So will this program replace that program?

445
00:39:24,100 --> 00:39:24,780
What's my question?

446
00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:29,300
Actually it's going to be able to cover the cost so that the services will be free.

447
00:39:29,420 --> 00:39:34,820
Even our Parks and Rec parents are asked to pay $5 a week which usually gets paid because

448
00:39:34,820 --> 00:39:38,000
we wave because we have other funding sources we can use.

449
00:39:38,340 --> 00:39:42,560
So we're absolutely using the Escobar Grant to cover the programming for all of those

450
00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:45,500
interested students on all the sites on our south side campuses.

451
00:39:45,500 --> 00:39:50,750
Okay, perfect. So I guess my one comment would be that I'm really excited to see this come

452
00:39:51,900 --> 00:39:57,720
Come to the board for approval to my dollars significant amount of funding. I was proud to have

453
00:39:57,720 --> 00:39:59,960
submitted a letter for support and

454
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:10,560
I do want to make sure that the evaluation piece that's coming to us from the YWCA is appropriate in light of the fact that it is federal grant funding.

455
00:40:11,420 --> 00:40:25,780
And so, really, to make sure that we have a transparent process for that, I would like to just entertain a motion to have a public evaluation report provided in line with the calendar that was provided by the project narrative.

456
00:40:25,780 --> 00:40:35,820
And just so that the public is aware of what activities are being utilized with this grant funding and how it is benefiting the children in this community.

457
00:40:36,720 --> 00:40:38,780
So, that would be my one ask.

458
00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:40,080
And I,

459
00:40:42,120 --> 00:40:55,520
as the board considers that motion and that request, I would just add that my preference would be that we would be able to do kind of an evaluation

460
00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:59,520
report on update on all after-school programming and how that's impacting.

461
00:41:00,100 --> 00:41:07,540
We can specify grants because there's multiple grants that we're receiving right now that

462
00:41:07,540 --> 00:41:13,700
are allowing us to run after-school programs, including do-day-agrants, this grant, and

463
00:41:13,700 --> 00:41:14,780
other funding sources.

464
00:41:15,300 --> 00:41:20,720
So I think it would be prudent for us as an organization to provide the board of

465
00:41:20,720 --> 00:41:22,220
full update on those pieces.

466
00:41:22,220 --> 00:41:31,700
We've also designated a department and a specific leader who is approved by the board a couple of months ago.

467
00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:45,540
The Anaputovensio, who is our new director of extended days, so not only moving towards licensure, but also evaluating the impact that our after-school programming is having on our students.

468
00:41:45,540 --> 00:41:46,200
Perfect.

469
00:41:46,500 --> 00:41:46,580
Thank you.

470
00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:52,360
And as we consider that, what would be your recommendation for the time being to provide

471
00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:55,440
this board report during our meeting.

472
00:41:56,000 --> 00:42:04,480
I would say that at the close of a school year and possibly either June or in August when

473
00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:11,540
we launch our new school year, we may have an update on any further expansions and updates

474
00:42:11,540 --> 00:42:16,580
on licensures and then an update on the impact that after school programming has had

475
00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:17,640
understudents.

476
00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:21,680
And one thing I did want to share with you, I'd thrilled that we were able to segue

477
00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:25,240
and introduce our new director for extended day learning and after school programming.

478
00:42:25,540 --> 00:42:29,880
We stole her from her era elementary and they're still very upset with us, but we're thrilled

479
00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:32,580
to have Diana Pervencio as our director and school leadership.

480
00:42:33,180 --> 00:42:40,400
And she is currently under the direction of Mr. Garcia presenting for the board, not on this

481
00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:45,240
of course, but we would like to share with your extended day learning center program where we are,

482
00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:49,760
what we're looking at in terms of licensure, and how we are monitoring all after school programming,

483
00:42:50,240 --> 00:42:55,160
so that we could ensure that there's quality across our district, not, you know, just in any one

484
00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:59,640
pocket, but we have excellence everywhere, and Diana will be helping lead that charge with this.

485
00:42:59,660 --> 00:43:05,860
So we are in the process of working on that to bring it to you, and we'll get that on a future date for you.

486
00:43:05,860 --> 00:43:12,880
So possibly a preliminary report and then, you know, kind of an outcome report at the end of the year.

487
00:43:13,240 --> 00:43:13,680
Absolutely, and obviously.

488
00:43:14,500 --> 00:43:19,000
So, and I see here on this part of this project narrative, it just has coming from the YWC.

489
00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:23,200
It has February and June, so I'm happy to entertain that as two possible benchmarks.

490
00:43:23,980 --> 00:43:28,900
One programming and implementation and two deliverables outcomes and student outcomes.

491
00:43:28,900 --> 00:43:42,300
So, if I would, I'd like to make a motion for the to direct the superintendent to provide a report to the board in February and in June of all of our after-school programs.

492
00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:50,900
Second, I have a motion by Trustee Hinani a second by Trustee Urobali. Are there any other comments or discussion?

493
00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:52,960
No, all in favor.

494
00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:56,360
I, I don't pass this six-year-old with trust you call.

495
00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:56,700
Thank you.

496
00:43:57,160 --> 00:43:58,180
Thank you.

497
00:43:58,180 --> 00:43:58,720
Thank you.

498
00:43:58,860 --> 00:44:03,280
Item seven was withdrawn, which takes us to pub item eight, which is public meeting.

499
00:44:03,380 --> 00:44:08,620
And it's a public meeting to discuss the district's rating under the schools financial integrity rating system of Texas.

500
00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:10,320
Also notice first.

501
00:44:10,540 --> 00:44:10,880
Mr. Gide.

502
00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:12,520
Good evening.

503
00:44:12,720 --> 00:44:13,700
President Edowali.

504
00:44:14,140 --> 00:44:14,580
Superintendents.

505
00:44:14,740 --> 00:44:15,920
I have read that I've boarded trustees.

506
00:44:16,340 --> 00:44:16,580
Martha.

507
00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:18,020
I read the chief financial officer.

508
00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:18,800
Excuse me.

509
00:44:19,020 --> 00:44:20,700
We actually have to approve the grant.

510
00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:26,020
I believe the motion was only to, for the reports, we need to go ahead and re-wine.

511
00:44:26,020 --> 00:44:26,980
I'll just be able to get it.

512
00:44:26,980 --> 00:44:28,980
So do I have a motion to approve the grant as well?

513
00:44:28,980 --> 00:44:29,380
So moved.

514
00:44:29,780 --> 00:44:30,460
Second as well.

515
00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:34,360
So that's a motion by Trustee Nani, a second by Trustee Urbali, all in favor.

516
00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:38,900
I have that motion passes six zero with Trustee Colner, present.

517
00:44:39,260 --> 00:44:40,120
Now, back to you, Mississippi.

518
00:44:40,580 --> 00:44:40,980
Okay.

519
00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:48,140
So, pursuant to Texas administrative code chapter 109, the public meeting must be held to discuss

520
00:44:48,140 --> 00:44:52,160
districts rating under the school's financial integrity rating system.

521
00:44:52,940 --> 00:44:59,960
And so this evening, Ms. Alonso, we'll, yes, Ms. Alonso, we'll be presenting at-

522
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:05,740
Could you present a presentation of the key indicators that have been awarded to the district with

523
00:45:05,740 --> 00:45:08,640
their financial transparency and performance?

524
00:46:23,930 --> 00:46:28,910
Good evening, Board President Irobali. Members of the Board, and Superintendent, Miss Ayavadra.

525
00:46:29,670 --> 00:46:36,170
Again, Mediamunso, with Executive Director of Financial Services. Today, we are here to discuss

526
00:46:36,170 --> 00:46:42,090
the results of T.E.A.'s financial integrity rating system of Texas, better known as the

527
00:46:42,090 --> 00:46:43,150
schools first.

528
00:46:50,820 --> 00:46:57,240
Okay, so the primary purpose of schools first is to achieve quality performance

529
00:46:57,240 --> 00:47:02,900
in the management of school districts financial resources. So the idea behind all of these,

530
00:47:03,120 --> 00:47:08,440
there's 20 indicators here that we're going to talk about, is to ensure that school districts

531
00:47:08,440 --> 00:47:14,020
are managing things properly, accordingly, effectively and efficiently as they operate the

532
00:47:21,410 --> 00:47:28,570
So, the ratings discussed today, the 2023 rating is actually based on data for fiscal year 2022.

533
00:47:29,930 --> 00:47:29,930
Okay.

534
00:47:32,850 --> 00:47:39,370
So, there are 20 indicators, as I mentioned, the first five indicators are a pass or fail.

535
00:47:39,730 --> 00:47:44,930
So, in the event, we fail any of them. We automatically fail the first rating. Okay.

536
00:47:44,930 --> 00:47:54,530
So the first, the first five critical indicators relate to the annual financial audit, whether

537
00:47:54,530 --> 00:47:59,550
the district submitted the annual financial audit timely to TEA and also whether the district

538
00:47:59,550 --> 00:48:02,330
received a clean opinion on the audit itself.

539
00:48:03,630 --> 00:48:09,450
Another critical area here is whether the district made their payments timely for their

540
00:48:09,450 --> 00:48:15,350
payments for TRS or teacher retirement system of Texas, the internal revenue service, and other

541
00:48:15,350 --> 00:48:16,450
governmental entities.

542
00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:28,600
Beginning with indicator number six, this particular indicator measures the fund balance

543
00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:29,920
over a three-year period.

544
00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:36,460
The idea of course is to maintain a healthy fund balance to operate the district.

545
00:48:37,580 --> 00:48:38,900
It does take a three-year average.

546
00:48:39,140 --> 00:48:43,860
We pass this particular indicator and our district's average change in fund balance is

547
00:48:43,860 --> 00:48:46,160
six point six eight percent.

548
00:48:48,690 --> 00:48:52,990
Indicator number seven measures the number of days of

549
00:48:52,990 --> 00:49:00,050
chi-ish on hand to cover operating expenditures. District has 112.08 days to cover

550
00:49:00,050 --> 00:49:01,110
operating expenditures.

551
00:49:04,930 --> 00:49:07,710
Indicator eight we receive eight of 10 points in this

552
00:49:07,710 --> 00:49:12,530
particular indicator. This is what we call a current racial. It basically measures

553
00:49:12,530 --> 00:49:17,510
the district's ability to cover short-term debt, okay?

554
00:49:18,030 --> 00:49:20,610
One way to improve this particular indicator

555
00:49:20,610 --> 00:49:25,350
is to one, maybe sell capital investments, capital buildings

556
00:49:25,350 --> 00:49:27,730
that we have that no longer generate any revenue.

557
00:49:27,930 --> 00:49:30,970
That's one way to possibly or potentially improve

558
00:49:30,970 --> 00:49:32,670
this particular indicator.

559
00:49:33,650 --> 00:49:37,130
Indicator number nine, we receive full-term points

560
00:49:37,130 --> 00:49:38,750
and basically here it just measures

561
00:49:38,750 --> 00:49:41,570
whether our district is generating enough revenue

562
00:49:41,570 --> 00:49:42,930
to cover its expenditures.

563
00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:49,280
Indicator number 10, this particular indicator,

564
00:49:49,500 --> 00:49:52,640
and you'll see a few others, was not great at this year.

565
00:49:53,420 --> 00:49:57,180
This is primarily attributed to the effects of COVID-19,

566
00:49:57,640 --> 00:49:59,520
and the effort funding that the district receives.

567
00:50:01,580 --> 00:50:15,920
Indicator number 11, this basically measures the long-term solvency of the district. One of the key factors that contributes to this particular ratio is the aging of our school buildings.

568
00:50:16,880 --> 00:50:22,360
So that's a big contributor to the formula. We received eight out of ten points in this particular indicator.

569
00:50:28,320 --> 00:50:37,940
Indicator number 12 measures the district's ability to pay for future dead payments with property tax revenue.

570
00:50:37,940 --> 00:50:45,740
We receive eight out of 10 points on this particular one. Indicator 13 is a measure is an administrative cost ratio.

571
00:50:46,460 --> 00:50:51,920
And this particular ratio measures the percentage of the district's budget that is spent on administration.

572
00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:57,900
Okay. We have a 5.45 percent rate.

573
00:50:57,900 --> 00:51:03,080
The states measures this for a district of our size.

574
00:51:03,220 --> 00:51:05,080
It's a maximum of 8.55.

575
00:51:05,780 --> 00:51:09,720
So we are well under the target that the state has.

576
00:51:10,000 --> 00:51:13,700
And what that means is more money is put into the classroom versus

577
00:51:13,700 --> 00:51:14,340
that administration.

578
00:51:20,500 --> 00:51:25,960
This particular slide provides you a comparison of Al Passois

579
00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:27,940
with our peer districts here locally.

580
00:51:28,560 --> 00:51:32,600
As we can see, our rate is really low, 5.45%.

581
00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:34,840
We have the second lowest in our area.

582
00:51:38,630 --> 00:51:41,830
This next slide provides you a comparison of EPSD,

583
00:51:42,170 --> 00:51:44,050
with our peer districts at the state level.

584
00:51:44,730 --> 00:51:50,130
Again, our rate at 5.45% also considered one of the lowest.

585
00:51:53,880 --> 00:51:59,180
Indicator number 14, this particular indicator

586
00:51:59,180 --> 00:52:02,660
was not, again, scored either 14 or 15,

587
00:52:03,140 --> 00:52:05,460
due to the impact of COVID and S or funding.

588
00:52:08,020 --> 00:52:17,080
Indicator number 16 is looking at the quality of the information that we submitted to TEA through the PIMS submission.

589
00:52:18,040 --> 00:52:24,140
So, in comparison to our annual financial audit and the accuracy of this was 100%.

590
00:52:26,510 --> 00:52:38,110
Indicator number 17, this 17 and 18 basically is measuring or looking at whether the district has strong internal controls over financial reporting

591
00:52:38,110 --> 00:52:42,850
and compliance in regards to our local state and federal funds.

592
00:52:43,950 --> 00:52:45,670
Both of these indicators were passed.

593
00:52:48,230 --> 00:52:52,930
Indicator number 19 monitors the districts website postings.

594
00:52:53,110 --> 00:52:57,110
There are required postings that we are supposed to provide both for transparency

595
00:52:57,110 --> 00:52:59,430
and again information to our public.

596
00:53:00,830 --> 00:53:07,050
Indicator number 20 is looking to ensure that we provide a presentation to the board

597
00:53:07,050 --> 00:53:10,010
informing them of our property tax revenues.

598
00:53:10,990 --> 00:53:13,690
Both of this indicators receive full points.

599
00:53:16,820 --> 00:53:21,420
And lastly, I proudly present our 2023 school first rating

600
00:53:21,420 --> 00:53:26,500
of superior achievement rating, a score of 94 over 100.

601
00:53:27,100 --> 00:53:28,560
Okay, so an A.

602
00:53:30,660 --> 00:53:33,060
And the last to add to this,

603
00:53:34,120 --> 00:53:37,540
EPA's, EPA's D has received the highest rating of superior

604
00:53:37,540 --> 00:53:39,460
treatment for 20 years.

605
00:53:40,600 --> 00:53:41,240
So, congratulations.

606
00:53:47,070 --> 00:53:53,910
Included in your packet is also disclosures regarding the spending, also the superintendent,

607
00:53:54,230 --> 00:54:00,470
a link to the superintendent's contract, as well as any outside compensation received by

608
00:54:01,010 --> 00:54:01,430
superintendent.

609
00:54:02,490 --> 00:54:07,210
Any information that relates to fiscal year 22 is included in disclosures.

610
00:54:07,650 --> 00:54:11,830
We've also made copies available at the entrance of the board room for the public to

611
00:54:11,830 --> 00:54:17,090
review. And at this time, I can address any questions you may have.

612
00:54:20,290 --> 00:54:21,170
Any questions by the board?

613
00:54:22,310 --> 00:54:23,610
Well, congratulations. Thank you.

614
00:54:23,710 --> 00:54:26,450
I know this is really important to this report because it's always superior.

615
00:54:26,730 --> 00:54:31,170
So thank you guys for your hard work. It shows a lot of the hard work you put into this.

616
00:54:31,290 --> 00:54:33,410
And so we really appreciate it because it makes our job easier up here.

617
00:54:33,530 --> 00:54:34,510
So thank you very much.

618
00:54:36,500 --> 00:54:37,140
Oh, I live.

619
00:54:37,500 --> 00:54:38,100
I live.

620
00:54:40,260 --> 00:54:41,060
It is a public meeting.

621
00:54:41,480 --> 00:54:45,580
So at this point, there's anyone that would like to speak to the public meeting before I close the public meeting.

622
00:54:45,580 --> 00:54:55,280
you are welcome to do so. Seeing no one, I will officially end the public meeting and move to item number nine A.

623
00:54:55,800 --> 00:54:59,840
Which is the House Bill 3, HP-3 student outcome goals of 2022, 2022.

624
00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:02,520
3 update, and I'll pass it over to you, Ms. Slybidder.

625
00:55:05,940 --> 00:55:14,120
Thank you. Our President, in a volume in trustees. Yes, we do. Have an update on House Bill 3. If

626
00:55:14,120 --> 00:55:21,560
you recall last year, we assembled an ad hoc committee to set forth House Bill 3 student

627
00:55:21,560 --> 00:55:30,320
outcome goals. And so, this evening is our first report based on the raw data that we have

628
00:55:30,320 --> 00:55:40,260
from the state at this time based on student star scores for the 2022-2023 school year.

629
00:55:40,760 --> 00:55:48,580
Just want to for the record and just make a note of the fact that as of today, the final

630
00:55:48,580 --> 00:55:54,420
accountability manual has still not been posted by the state or by the commissioner and

631
00:55:54,420 --> 00:56:01,040
school district is still awaiting information about how our final rating will be calculated.

632
00:56:02,120 --> 00:56:07,300
But for the purposes of updating the board in terms of student achievement based on domain

633
00:56:07,300 --> 00:56:17,460
one, the staff will be sharing where we are at this time in terms of how close we are

634
00:56:17,460 --> 00:56:20,460
to reaching our House Bill 3 student outcome goals.

635
00:56:22,610 --> 00:56:26,470
Thank you, President Ilubali, Ms. Sevega, members of the Board. I might have been

636
00:56:26,470 --> 00:56:30,790
MSEST for organizational transformation, equity officer. And here with me is Ms.

637
00:56:30,950 --> 00:56:34,950
Christine Ferret. She's our executive director of strategic planning and design and, of course,

638
00:56:34,990 --> 00:56:39,790
the brains behind a lot of the data, as you all know. We also have Victor Malonado that

639
00:56:39,790 --> 00:56:43,370
helps us with all the crunching of the numbers. He wasn't here to join us, but I want to

640
00:56:43,370 --> 00:56:48,010
make sure to give him kudos, because he always helps us in getting everything ready for presentation.

641
00:56:48,010 --> 00:56:53,510
So, with that, just the overview, we're going to be going over T-E-A-H-B-3 summary, early

642
00:56:53,510 --> 00:56:58,830
childhood literacy and numeracy, and of course, R-C-C-M-R, or college and career readiness.

643
00:56:59,830 --> 00:57:06,550
With that, H-B-3, you know that it requires for our board to annually review the information,

644
00:57:06,930 --> 00:57:11,650
and it actually has the plan where we're looking at key areas, there's two key areas that

645
00:57:11,650 --> 00:57:17,010
we look like, early childhood literacy, and of course, our numeracy with the mathematics proficiency.

646
00:57:17,010 --> 00:57:21,710
Also, we're looking at CCMR and those are the goals that you all have created.

647
00:57:22,150 --> 00:57:25,850
The other thing that we're required to do is on an annual basis bring you this information

648
00:57:25,850 --> 00:57:30,410
for you all to review and of course for our public to see as we're moving forward.

649
00:57:31,610 --> 00:57:35,930
Within the plan, it actually has some specific items that we look at.

650
00:57:35,930 --> 00:57:39,770
For example, we look at our annual goals for third grade math and reading.

651
00:57:40,330 --> 00:57:45,510
We look at annual targets that are evaluated in closing the gaps in the domains.

652
00:57:45,510 --> 00:57:51,730
The other thing that we do is we're looking at targeted professional development for areas that we need growth on.

653
00:57:52,070 --> 00:58:01,390
As you saw from last month, we had our academics and our school leadership come into play and they shared with you all of the different things that they're doing to support our campuses.

654
00:58:01,930 --> 00:58:08,250
This data also clarifies the areas that they're supporting as they're going to the campuses on a weekly basis.

655
00:58:08,250 --> 00:58:16,770
And of course the last thing that we have is where are we looking at our bilingual and our ESL programs in areas that we need to improve.

656
00:58:17,830 --> 00:58:27,410
In historical context, we know that January 2020 is when you all actually developed these board goals and just this past year in March, we actually updated.

657
00:58:27,530 --> 00:58:29,090
So thank you for doing that.

658
00:58:29,170 --> 00:58:34,970
One thing that we will request is as you know, and I'm going to share with you all is truly based on the information.

659
00:58:34,970 --> 00:58:40,050
and this is a baseline year, so possibility of us coming together so that we could redesign

660
00:58:40,050 --> 00:58:41,570
this as we're moving forward.

661
00:58:42,770 --> 00:58:46,210
In our Tableau dashboard, we want to make sure that this is public facing.

662
00:58:46,350 --> 00:58:52,550
So if you go onto our EPSD website, if you go under board, you could look at our HP3 student

663
00:58:52,550 --> 00:58:59,510
outcome goals, and you actually could research and do some data dives by location by campus

664
00:58:59,510 --> 00:59:00,950
and also by student group.

665
00:59:02,740 --> 00:59:07,640
As we've been sharing as a star redesign, truly, it's not apples to apples.

666
00:59:08,200 --> 00:59:13,120
As they redesign the test, you know that much of the test are all of the test was online,

667
00:59:13,260 --> 00:59:17,280
so it truly had the most impact on our youngest learners, third and fourth grade.

668
00:59:17,760 --> 00:59:22,900
The other things that it impacted is that we know that the test, there's new multiple choice

669
00:59:22,900 --> 00:59:24,220
questions that are on there.

670
00:59:24,620 --> 00:59:28,240
The other thing that we've shared with you is that the cross-curricular reading, language

671
00:59:29,320 --> 00:59:34,480
And the other big change that occurred is now our reading test has that reading language arts.

672
00:59:34,900 --> 00:59:37,320
So it has that open ended response in there.

673
00:59:37,540 --> 00:59:39,360
That's the writing piece of it.

674
00:59:39,760 --> 00:59:44,740
So with that, what we did is we wanted to look to show you all how that actually impacted

675
00:59:44,740 --> 00:59:47,680
the big differences between last year and this year.

676
00:59:48,080 --> 00:59:52,480
So for 2022 reading, you know that in 2023, it's now reading language arts.

677
00:59:53,140 --> 00:59:55,620
We had our third grade reading language arts.

678
00:59:55,620 --> 00:59:57,680
This usually has about 41 questions.

679
00:59:58,280 --> 00:59:59,920
The difference is that all that goes.

680
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:11,940
41 questions are worth 52 points. So this here is a reading language arts answer key. And if you notice, there are certain questions that are worth more than one multiple point.

681
01:00:12,240 --> 01:00:26,560
And then if you look at question 25 this year in reading language arts, that question itself with worth 10 points. So when we're looking at apples to apples, we wanted to see how did our third grade students do across the state and in EPSD with that open-ended response.

682
01:00:26,560 --> 01:00:39,300
So with that, we were able to pull this data, and what it shows, the way that we read this is on the top that blue line is when students receive zero out of 10 points for that question item.

683
01:00:39,680 --> 01:00:48,360
And as you go down, there's 10 different little bars there. The first one being zero points on the top, and then the last one being they got full 10 points.

684
01:00:48,360 --> 01:00:53,940
So if you notice in the state, the one on the top left, that's our state data.

685
01:00:54,260 --> 01:00:56,760
So this is third grade students across the state.

686
01:00:56,760 --> 01:01:02,620
If you notice 42% of them got 0% of the points for that open-ended response question.

687
01:01:03,100 --> 01:01:08,940
And if we look at the green bar going up, which is, they got four points, which is less than half of the points.

688
01:01:09,360 --> 01:01:16,260
It's over 75% of our students in Texas, third graders got less than half of the points for that question.

689
01:01:16,260 --> 01:01:22,060
So we compared that to EPSD. We're doing a little bit better than the state, but truly this

690
01:01:22,060 --> 01:01:27,300
solidifies that truly it's not an apples to apples comparison from last year to this year again.

691
01:01:27,420 --> 01:01:30,240
Wanting to set that baseline for this year? Yes, ma'am.

692
01:01:30,900 --> 01:01:44,940
So I just wanted this is a good opportunity for me to just simply interject that I, this is one of the primary reasons why it's important for us to you know

693
01:01:44,940 --> 01:01:52,560
We, the board, voted to become part of the lawsuit at the state level.

694
01:01:53,660 --> 01:02:02,800
And one of the primary arguments is that it's unprecedented that the state changes the format

695
01:02:02,800 --> 01:02:03,620
of a test.

696
01:02:03,780 --> 01:02:09,240
In this case, an open-ended response is a significant format change for students.

697
01:02:09,240 --> 01:02:18,720
typically that has been done in a given year and the following year and that initial

698
01:02:18,720 --> 01:02:26,500
year is used as a benchmark year and then the following year ratings or accountability

699
01:02:26,500 --> 01:02:37,400
is assigned in the testimony the state did share that it was not there in tint to change

700
01:02:37,400 --> 01:02:46,160
format and assign ratings all in a given year, but that in essence is what's pending

701
01:02:46,160 --> 01:02:47,120
at this point.

702
01:02:47,340 --> 01:02:58,280
But this is a prime example of why it's important to allow benchmark data once the format

703
01:02:58,280 --> 01:03:05,160
of a test is changed before you begin to assign accountability ratings to districts.

704
01:03:05,160 --> 01:03:24,020
And again, when only what was it, less than 45 percent of the kids in the state got less than half of the points for a new formatted question, that's a significant shift and how we would expect kids to perform.

705
01:03:25,440 --> 01:03:26,780
Thank you, Ms. Sylveter.

706
01:03:27,960 --> 01:03:29,800
And with I'm going to turn it over to Ms. Correct.

707
01:03:32,340 --> 01:03:35,260
Good afternoon, more president, board members, Ms. Sylveter.

708
01:03:35,820 --> 01:03:39,280
I'm going to just share a little bit of the data that we do have, the first area being

709
01:03:39,280 --> 01:03:42,120
the annual review of the early childhood literacy.

710
01:03:42,620 --> 01:03:49,400
And again, not apples to apples if you can imagine a third grade student working online

711
01:03:49,400 --> 01:03:55,620
is a little bit of a shift, but typing an extended response was a huge difference.

712
01:03:55,620 --> 01:04:01,300
So not apples to apples, but you can see the blue bars show our actual data.

713
01:04:02,060 --> 01:04:08,140
So moving from the 22 data, the 21, the district did not.

714
01:04:09,080 --> 01:04:15,120
The goal that was set was by 2025 to be at 61% at the meat level.

715
01:04:15,120 --> 01:04:17,120
That's not passing. That's the higher standard.

716
01:04:20,120 --> 01:04:24,320
And the three kind of points is that we didn't meet the target.

717
01:04:24,320 --> 01:04:31,220
The district was above the state average in third grade reading and the data reflects both that refresh assessment.

718
01:04:31,660 --> 01:04:38,020
And then another piece is this was the group of third graders that were first graders during COVID,

719
01:04:38,540 --> 01:04:40,380
which is a critical year for reading.

720
01:04:40,740 --> 01:04:45,480
So another piece to this data puzzle when we dig into it.

721
01:04:45,700 --> 01:04:49,880
This is a template provided by T.A. to show a little bit more detail of the results

722
01:04:49,880 --> 01:04:59,860
in black are the targets that were set in March, in red is the actual data and overall.

723
01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:11,460
When we look at the target show that we are on track for the long term goal, the data that the goal that we set at this time that overall evaluation is that we are not on track.

724
01:05:13,120 --> 01:05:29,540
There are some identified campuses there that had some significant gaps. When we look at an annual review of early childhood math, again, not apples to apples, the third grade students and mathematics did not meet the target.

725
01:05:29,540 --> 01:05:33,220
Again, the data does reflect the refresh assessment.

726
01:05:35,520 --> 01:05:40,620
And overall, when we look at where we're headed and are we on track for 2025,

727
01:05:42,420 --> 01:05:48,700
the administration's evaluation is that we are not on track for the goals as said in March.

728
01:05:49,300 --> 01:05:56,720
You can see some campuses also identified and are data in red shows the actual data

729
01:05:56,720 --> 01:05:59,640
versus the targets.

730
01:06:01,420 --> 01:06:04,680
The third board goal relates to our college and career readiness.

731
01:06:06,520 --> 01:06:11,620
In this one, we were looking at our focus indicators, which is really all of the indicators

732
01:06:11,620 --> 01:06:18,640
with the exception of the military, and the as the state was folding that one in, hasn't

733
01:06:18,640 --> 01:06:22,180
folded in yet, and the college prep courses.

734
01:06:22,180 --> 01:06:27,760
So, the target was to get to 73% by June of 2025.

735
01:06:29,200 --> 01:06:33,920
As a note, we set this data in March or these targets in March of 2023.

736
01:06:34,960 --> 01:06:38,380
But this actually reflects the class of 22 graduates.

737
01:06:39,420 --> 01:06:43,060
So, this data, it is what it is.

738
01:06:43,440 --> 01:06:48,740
However, it is not on target for this particular target year.

739
01:06:48,740 --> 01:06:54,700
But the overall evaluation is that with the work that's been done and looking at the work from

740
01:06:54,700 --> 01:07:01,600
class of 23 and 24 coming up, that we still will make the target in this area.

741
01:07:02,220 --> 01:07:03,500
Significant work has been done.

742
01:07:04,660 --> 01:07:10,500
This is also a group of graduates that did have some disruptions with all of the testing

743
01:07:10,500 --> 01:07:16,420
components of the SAT and TSI were on pause for a section of their high school.

744
01:07:16,420 --> 01:07:18,300
The colleges didn't require those pieces.

745
01:07:18,300 --> 01:07:21,120
So there were some other factors as well.

746
01:07:22,080 --> 01:07:24,600
This shows the breakdown again.

747
01:07:25,180 --> 01:07:28,740
And again, a administration does identify that although it

748
01:07:28,740 --> 01:07:33,520
didn't make the class of 22 target didn't hit the mark

749
01:07:33,520 --> 01:07:36,700
that we are likely still on track to make the long-term target

750
01:07:36,700 --> 01:07:37,440
in this area.

751
01:07:39,340 --> 01:07:41,560
This breaks it down a little bit by campus,

752
01:07:41,560 --> 01:07:43,540
and you'll see an orange.

753
01:07:44,340 --> 01:07:47,240
There's two different types of CCMR data.

754
01:07:47,240 --> 01:07:51,720
we've shared a little bit with the A through Aff accountability and how this state is proposed

755
01:07:51,720 --> 01:07:59,260
a 28% increase in what's required for an A. But you can see both the board metric, which

756
01:07:59,260 --> 01:08:05,800
does not include any of the college prep courses, and the percent of students that are meeting

757
01:08:06,600 --> 01:08:12,860
college readiness or career readiness on those targets. And you can also see next to it with

758
01:08:12,860 --> 01:08:21,120
the A to F accountability, what the campuses are designated to receive once those ratings

759
01:08:21,120 --> 01:08:21,880
do come out.

760
01:08:22,060 --> 01:08:23,780
Those are both available there.

761
01:08:26,850 --> 01:08:32,850
Our progress measure, one of the progress measures that we have data for is the number

762
01:08:32,850 --> 01:08:38,490
of students meeting outcome bonus, outcome bonus is a different metric, relies very heavily on

763
01:08:38,490 --> 01:08:44,290
that TSI component, and it is two years delayed.

764
01:08:44,290 --> 01:08:53,250
So this actually reflects the class of 2021 that that class did have a decline statewide.

765
01:08:53,250 --> 01:08:59,810
We did see that there was a significant decline statewide in this metric from class of 2021.

766
01:09:01,050 --> 01:09:06,270
And I believe a board packet was shared as well showing other impacts related to that.

767
01:09:06,910 --> 01:09:12,610
The second measure is the percent of students completing the industry certification in an

768
01:09:12,610 --> 01:09:23,210
line program of study. We had the mark set at 9% for, I'm sorry, at 8% for this year and we

769
01:09:23,210 --> 01:09:30,890
have exceeded that mark and so we are in above the target in each of those areas or projected

770
01:09:30,890 --> 01:09:36,270
to be above the target in each of those areas in that measure and are significantly higher when

771
01:09:36,270 --> 01:09:39,150
look at early data for class of 2023.

772
01:09:41,310 --> 01:09:43,970
As shared earlier, we do have a complete breakdown of

773
01:09:43,970 --> 01:09:47,650
all of the goals, all of the progress measures and all of the data that's currently available.

774
01:09:48,250 --> 01:09:56,230
It is on our public dashboard and it is available to be sorted or to be filtered by any campus

775
01:09:56,230 --> 01:09:57,590
or any student group.

776
01:09:59,610 --> 01:09:59,970
At this time of...

777
01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:02,000
Go ahead and open it up for any questions or feedback?

778
01:10:02,880 --> 01:10:08,760
I did before the questions. I did want to remind the board and just make a statement that the

779
01:10:08,760 --> 01:10:17,880
House Bill 3 student outcome goals that the board adopted are for the meets and above categories,

780
01:10:18,740 --> 01:10:24,020
not the approaches categories. So I just wanted to remind the board of that, especially

781
01:10:24,020 --> 01:10:29,440
for those that are new to the board, and we're not involved in that specific process.

782
01:10:33,160 --> 01:10:38,600
I'm excited that if I may ask, and it may be a loaded question, but if maybe, and it's

783
01:10:38,600 --> 01:10:48,080
not a question, but maybe it is to you, how we, what's the plan then for those deficiencies

784
01:10:48,080 --> 01:10:53,880
that we have for the future? What do you have? In brief, I know, that's a loaded question.

785
01:10:53,880 --> 01:11:02,380
Yeah, it's a pretty loaded question, and I think that we've had a lot of conversations in the board room in the past couple of months in terms of our instructional response.

786
01:11:03,560 --> 01:11:10,300
You know, because as we as the data has been coming in, we have been assessing and evaluating the data really digging in.

787
01:11:11,260 --> 01:11:18,900
And much of the data has really justified some of the changes and some of the updates that we've made to master schedules at the elementary level.

788
01:11:18,900 --> 01:11:21,400
of all master schedules at the middle school

789
01:11:21,400 --> 01:11:23,760
in the high school level, the wind time,

790
01:11:23,760 --> 01:11:25,060
the rollout of the curriculum,

791
01:11:26,680 --> 01:11:29,140
the intervention staff that's been deployed

792
01:11:29,140 --> 01:11:33,020
to each one of the campuses with our entitlement funding.

793
01:11:34,120 --> 01:11:36,060
But the other thing that I, you know,

794
01:11:36,180 --> 01:11:38,540
aside from our instructional response

795
01:11:38,540 --> 01:11:41,960
and the additional support that we're giving campuses,

796
01:11:42,480 --> 01:11:45,720
what I would say a part of the plan

797
01:11:45,720 --> 01:11:47,280
that I would like to recommend

798
01:11:47,280 --> 01:11:54,020
is that we reconvene the at-hot committee so that we can recalibrate where we are with our

799
01:11:54,020 --> 01:11:55,940
House Bill 3 student outcome goals.

800
01:11:57,640 --> 01:12:02,980
I think that we can presume that there's some benchmark data that we need to consider

801
01:12:02,980 --> 01:12:07,660
because of some of the extensive changes to the star exam.

802
01:12:08,700 --> 01:12:14,600
It is now being considered star 2.0, even though it's under the same umbrella as star.

803
01:12:14,600 --> 01:12:21,840
The changes are significant enough for the term that has now been coined start 2.0.

804
01:12:22,280 --> 01:12:31,500
So my recommendation aside from all of the instructional adjustments and responses that we've created that we reconvene the ad hoc committee.

805
01:12:32,040 --> 01:12:36,480
We look at the at where we are in terms of progress.

806
01:12:36,840 --> 01:12:44,580
Use some of the data as benchmark data to recalibrate where we should be in the next 3 to 5 years in terms of those students.

807
01:12:45,720 --> 01:12:51,600
outcome goals. And because I was part of that, maybe you can come to me to be part of that again.

808
01:12:54,280 --> 01:12:54,340
Questions?

809
01:13:04,380 --> 01:13:07,780
The reason that I want to spend the significant amount of time on this is really,

810
01:13:08,000 --> 01:13:12,300
this is the only measure of the board in terms of student outcome goals.

811
01:13:12,400 --> 01:13:18,120
That's one of the reasons why it was so important for us to convene and really nail it and get it right.

812
01:13:18,120 --> 01:13:24,120
Because we, this is the only, these are the only board adopted goals we have that actually measures to now come.

813
01:13:24,300 --> 01:13:30,560
So I think these, these goals and these measures and these targets are a direct reflection of the board.

814
01:13:30,700 --> 01:13:34,880
So it's very important that we spend significant amount of time trying to get it right.

815
01:13:35,220 --> 01:13:40,380
In that vein, just to kind of respond to a couple of things that have come up.

816
01:13:40,480 --> 01:13:44,840
I think it would be premature to sort of set the bar lower now.

817
01:13:44,840 --> 01:13:51,780
I think we need to wait the year out and evaluate regional data and also look at some of the

818
01:13:51,780 --> 01:13:56,740
screener data that's going to be coming in before we start to look at how we can sort of lower

819
01:13:56,740 --> 01:13:57,760
the bar, right?

820
01:13:57,760 --> 01:14:01,960
I think there's a lot more data that we need to pull before we even really think about having

821
01:14:01,960 --> 01:14:02,680
that conversation.

822
01:14:03,500 --> 01:14:07,060
I think we all, you know, believe in this administration, we believe in our students.

823
01:14:07,600 --> 01:14:11,620
And so that should be the thing that we sort of set out to do first.

824
01:14:11,620 --> 01:14:22,860
In terms of how we receive these reports, I would like to see a lot more in-depth data.

825
01:14:22,860 --> 01:14:27,140
And I know a lot of that screen or data hasn't really come in yet, so that we have that

826
01:14:27,140 --> 01:14:28,000
public information.

827
01:14:28,580 --> 01:14:34,160
There is a format that I think we should look at that really addresses, and we talked about

828
01:14:34,160 --> 01:14:37,720
this and I'm sort of repeating this because we talked about this during our ad hoc committee.

829
01:14:39,060 --> 01:14:44,780
Just going back to some of those conversations, the reports that are coming forward to the public.

830
01:14:45,840 --> 01:14:53,500
The detail on the specificity in terms of the screeners themselves, we talked about even how it would allow the public to see

831
01:14:53,500 --> 01:14:58,080
or allow the board to see how students are doing with numeracy or phonics.

832
01:14:58,440 --> 01:14:59,680
Some of the specific components.

833
01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:07,880
That will help us really make assessments about where our students are as they navigate these

834
01:15:07,880 --> 01:15:08,220
journeys.

835
01:15:10,320 --> 01:15:13,700
So I think that, for me, is the most important thing coming out of this. Some of

836
01:15:13,700 --> 01:15:19,040
those reports, and I think I can certainly share examples, we'll have that specific information, and

837
01:15:19,040 --> 01:15:24,060
then we'll have the administration sort of, when we talked about all this, I'm just repeating it.

838
01:15:24,060 --> 01:15:29,520
the progress monitoring pieces that kind of disaggregate the data aside from the all, right?

839
01:15:29,600 --> 01:15:36,540
And then the action, the action items, we talked about all of that, sort of having that included.

840
01:15:37,100 --> 01:15:42,920
So for me, the big takeaway today is just having the comprehensive information for the public.

841
01:15:43,500 --> 01:15:51,020
And it would be great to see that as part of the dashboard as well, in addition to the calendar, the monitoring calendar.

842
01:15:51,020 --> 01:15:54,760
because some of these screeners are not going to be available to us until one.

843
01:15:54,780 --> 01:15:55,440
A few months ago.

844
01:15:55,580 --> 01:16:03,020
They should be, we just right before the break and my correct, we've already done

845
01:16:03,020 --> 01:16:05,040
our first round of B.O.I.S., right?

846
01:16:05,160 --> 01:16:07,380
So the B.O.I. data is available now.

847
01:16:07,760 --> 01:16:12,520
We're going to, on Thursday, we're reviewing that with principles in a little more

848
01:16:12,520 --> 01:16:13,060
depth.

849
01:16:13,640 --> 01:16:18,520
And at the same time, reviewing that with Cabinet, and so from there, we'll be able

850
01:16:18,520 --> 01:16:21,420
to provide kind of what that looks like, disaggregated,

851
01:16:21,760 --> 01:16:23,840
and then what our response is from there.

852
01:16:24,180 --> 01:16:26,640
So we can come back in November with an update

853
01:16:26,640 --> 01:16:28,320
on some of the screener data.

854
01:16:29,460 --> 01:16:32,100
I'll also be sharing that there are,

855
01:16:32,100 --> 01:16:34,160
I do want to make a clarifying point

856
01:16:34,160 --> 01:16:37,860
that there are student outcome data points

857
01:16:37,860 --> 01:16:40,060
that are part of my superintendent evaluation

858
01:16:40,060 --> 01:16:43,340
that you all will be receiving in my summative document

859
01:16:43,940 --> 01:16:47,000
that also include, but you are correct

860
01:16:47,000 --> 01:16:52,300
in terms of the House Bill 3 and was required by law and what the board is held responsible

861
01:16:52,300 --> 01:16:55,600
for in terms of your board role is a big deal.

862
01:16:55,820 --> 01:16:57,420
The House Bill 3, you do not come calls.

863
01:16:59,100 --> 01:17:03,860
I think that what Ms. Hannoni is referring to when we have this discussion in the ad hoc

864
01:17:03,860 --> 01:17:12,720
committee was if this is what the outcome is, these were the inputs that were part of the

865
01:17:12,720 --> 01:17:19,180
system and these are the outputs that were yielded in the next round what are some of the

866
01:17:19,180 --> 01:17:24,760
inputs that are intended and I think that was part of the format that we discussed in

867
01:17:24,760 --> 01:17:29,640
terms of forward-facing information to the public so that they know that there are actions

868
01:17:29,640 --> 01:17:36,380
that are being taken and that we're monitoring how those actions are impacting whether kids

869
01:17:36,380 --> 01:17:40,000
are improving or you know are they're making an impact right?

870
01:17:40,000 --> 01:17:58,380
Yeah, and absolutely, and I mean, I really appreciate, and I believe the public does to, you know, having access to the, the disaggregated student group targets, but then again, what are the action items that are going to be specifically addressing where some of those gaps are.

871
01:17:58,380 --> 01:18:06,480
And we see that, you know, emergent bilinguals are really far below where we want them to be

872
01:18:06,480 --> 01:18:12,380
and special that are kind of the two where we see the glaring red so it'd be nice to have a picture for the public of

873
01:18:13,280 --> 01:18:14,860
what are the action steps without we're taking.

874
01:18:16,300 --> 01:18:18,840
I did have one more, yes, last thing.

875
01:18:19,460 --> 01:18:26,060
And then on the CCMR, thank you for pulling out what it looks like with college prep and without college prep.

876
01:18:26,060 --> 01:18:32,180
that was kind of a huge piece for me because I always felt like it was deceiving when we would

877
01:18:32,180 --> 01:18:37,700
see a lot of these campuses get azure bees in college readiness, but then when we took

878
01:18:37,700 --> 01:18:42,140
out the college prep course and we actually looked at nationally-normed data or even

879
01:18:42,140 --> 01:18:48,020
TSI testing, then we could see, again, where there was a start disparity.

880
01:18:49,420 --> 01:18:53,500
So I'm hoping that as we move forward, the public is understanding that we're starting

881
01:18:53,500 --> 01:18:56,180
to move towards really wanting our students to be able

882
01:18:56,180 --> 01:18:59,200
to excel on nationally-norm reference tests.

883
01:18:59,540 --> 01:19:01,240
And that's why these screeners are so important.

884
01:19:01,460 --> 01:19:03,780
And I think in order to kind of have that conversation,

885
01:19:04,120 --> 01:19:05,580
we do need to build a better dashboard

886
01:19:05,580 --> 01:19:09,280
so that we're explaining to the public exactly

887
01:19:09,280 --> 01:19:10,420
why we're doing this work.

888
01:19:11,020 --> 01:19:13,340
I'm going to circle back as I round this off

889
01:19:13,340 --> 01:19:15,360
that this is really the most critical work

890
01:19:15,360 --> 01:19:17,800
that us as a board can do right here

891
01:19:17,800 --> 01:19:20,000
is how we take our student outcomes

892
01:19:20,000 --> 01:19:21,900
and hold ourselves accountable.

893
01:19:21,900 --> 01:19:32,260
So President I don't know if maybe we can entertain doing the self evaluation as a board for something like this because I do think it's important for the board to hold ourselves accountable

894
01:19:32,260 --> 01:19:43,100
When we're looking specifically at student outcomes and I think some of that as we plan for team of you know future team of eight training with new board members coming on board

895
01:19:43,100 --> 01:19:50,120
I think that's absolutely a discussion that we can have as part of that training in terms of

896
01:19:50,960 --> 01:19:55,560
additional measures associated with self-evaluation, you know, of the board.

897
01:19:56,760 --> 01:19:59,980
Could I, it may not be a motion, but can I make a motion taken in V.

898
01:20:00,000 --> 01:20:07,000
I mean, the ad hoc committee to talk about the reporting tool just to maybe have to follow up on that conversation.

899
01:20:08,060 --> 01:20:20,580
I don't know if we need a motion because this is a report. It's not an action item, but you can certainly request that of me as a superintendent and hold me accountable for follow-up work associated with this.

900
01:20:23,680 --> 01:20:44,880
Yes, absolutely, and, you know, the other thing that Miss Anani shared that is critical and important for me to reinforce is that the House Bill 3 student outcome goals just as with the measures for the star data are at the meets level and that's what we're reporting to the board.

901
01:20:44,880 --> 01:20:51,100
The CCMR data that we're reflecting is also at a higher standard than what the state would require.

902
01:20:52,060 --> 01:21:08,460
So I think it's important for the public to know that the board is really pushing me and the administration in terms of higher levels of achievement for our students and not just creating goals that meet a minimum state standard.

903
01:21:10,600 --> 01:21:20,760
And for those of trustees, that's, I mean, Trustee Beals and Quiar, you guys were not here when we established the at heart for HP3, that's I'm interested if you just want to communicate with myself from this side of edra.

904
01:21:21,200 --> 01:21:24,220
We'll make sure to get you guys on that at heart if you want to.

905
01:21:24,280 --> 01:21:24,820
Dr. Sve.

906
01:21:25,980 --> 01:21:31,800
I forget if this was an internal thought that I had or an actual thing that we did.

907
01:21:31,800 --> 01:21:42,380
Um, I do we have a calendar on monitoring these, okay, and so I guess I'm wondering if

908
01:21:42,380 --> 01:21:47,880
with the ad hoc committee meeting, um, if we could make that a little more proactive

909
01:21:47,880 --> 01:21:53,300
in how we monitor that would be really helpful in terms of getting the boards together.

910
01:21:53,460 --> 01:21:59,980
Maybe that's separate from Tuesday meeting, um, like a regular Tuesday meeting where it's like

911
01:21:59,980 --> 01:22:07,760
this November, we're talking about just strictly math and really giving us a way to monitor

912
01:22:07,760 --> 01:22:12,580
to also hold the board accountable on that because I think when we get to the regular board

913
01:22:12,580 --> 01:22:18,060
meeting like we're doing today, it's a lot to process and if we just did a meeting around

914
01:22:18,060 --> 01:22:23,440
that, I think it'll give us fresh minds and better perspectives on doing things. So I would

915
01:22:23,440 --> 01:22:27,500
suggest that in that hot committee or president, you're probably just in that sense.

916
01:22:27,500 --> 01:22:36,380
It could be a workshop, I mean, similar to the budget workshops that we do, as we're having conversations about how the budget is evolving, we can do the same thing.

917
01:22:36,520 --> 01:22:45,060
I think that also part of the work that we need to do as a team of eight is to re-establish some of our committee structure, which might help with some of this.

918
01:22:45,060 --> 01:22:45,340
to.

919
01:22:47,540 --> 01:22:54,300
I highly recommend that more of us get involved in this because of the fact that I learned a lot

920
01:22:54,300 --> 01:23:04,420
and being able to assess and understand how it's all laid out. So if just besides Ms. Henanyan

921
01:23:04,420 --> 01:23:14,240
myself or on that committee, those newer trustees would really benefit from something like this.

922
01:23:15,420 --> 01:23:16,600
Thank you, Trustee Hernandez.

923
01:23:16,840 --> 01:23:18,020
Is there any other comments or questions?

924
01:23:19,420 --> 01:23:19,540
No.

925
01:23:19,860 --> 01:23:20,700
Thank you very much, Team.

926
01:23:20,760 --> 01:23:21,880
We really do appreciate the report.

927
01:23:22,460 --> 01:23:25,880
And we look forward to the reconvening of the at-home committee.

928
01:23:27,300 --> 01:23:32,360
That takes us to item 9B, quarterly update on school facility planning and construction

929
01:23:32,360 --> 01:23:34,320
2016 bond program.

930
01:23:34,360 --> 01:23:34,880
Ms. Iveter?

931
01:23:35,620 --> 01:23:36,080
Yes.

932
01:23:36,080 --> 01:23:36,780
Thank you.

933
01:23:37,220 --> 01:23:38,840
President Iterbali and trustees.

934
01:23:39,280 --> 01:23:43,460
I'm going to call Mr. and any member of the school who's been holding down the

935
01:23:44,300 --> 01:23:51,700
with our facilities and construction and kind of really helping us continue to manage our bond projects.

936
01:23:52,700 --> 01:23:58,700
I would like to take this opportunity to introduce our new chief operations officer, Mr. Stacey Pearson,

937
01:23:58,960 --> 01:24:05,160
who's joined us today to be part of the conversation and really just to observe and to listen to where we are.

938
01:24:05,560 --> 01:24:12,200
In terms of facilities, he'll be with us today tomorrow for the state of the district and then we'll introduce him to the principals tomorrow.

939
01:24:13,160 --> 01:24:20,640
Today, Mr. Vadoosco will continue to kind of lead the conversation and just share an update

940
01:24:20,640 --> 01:24:23,460
with the board where we are with our bond projects.

941
01:24:23,560 --> 01:24:29,520
It's my understanding that we're at 96 percent completion and we've got about 4 percent

942
01:24:29,520 --> 01:24:34,700
of the bond that was passed in 2016 that remains pending.

943
01:24:35,300 --> 01:24:38,320
So Mr. Vadoosco, I'll yield the floor to you.

944
01:24:44,080 --> 01:24:48,360
Ivelha. I'm a member of the Duskwam, the Assistant Superintendent for Technology.

945
01:24:49,580 --> 01:24:53,940
And we've been serving in Ramirez, Executive Director for Facilities and Construction.

946
01:25:02,130 --> 01:25:13,750
We say that, as said, we're about 96% complete in the projects. This is a review of our budget.

947
01:25:21,380 --> 01:25:33,800
The say, percent in August, we are now our program contingency. It's $40 million that we have based on the projects that we have completed.

948
01:25:35,110 --> 01:25:39,390
This is our project completion time line summary.

949
01:25:40,430 --> 01:25:43,470
We expect this Jefferson High School.

950
01:25:43,970 --> 01:25:47,470
We'll be joe heel to be completed here.

951
01:25:48,570 --> 01:25:51,690
Actually, this is in November.

952
01:25:52,310 --> 01:25:58,730
And then, now that it is, well, November and Harley in December.

953
01:25:58,810 --> 01:26:01,150
And of course, the Coronado High School in March.

954
01:26:04,130 --> 01:26:11,250
This is a summary of the project's already completed for the month 2016 project,

955
01:26:13,450 --> 01:26:31,130
and as far as Bobby Joel Hill, we're there, 98%, we have already finished the basketball courts have already been completed, so we plan to close this project next year in the next month.

956
01:26:32,630 --> 01:26:39,550
As far as Jefferson High School, we're also 98%, we're pending a final

957
01:26:39,550 --> 01:26:46,630
fire inspection passing, and then we'll be able to close this project as well.

958
01:26:48,700 --> 01:26:51,340
Here's a picture of the softball fields.

959
01:26:54,450 --> 01:26:59,510
Harley, where there are 85% we plan to complete this one in December.

960
01:27:00,870 --> 01:27:05,030
We still are right now continuing working on our demo of the gross.

961
01:27:05,030 --> 01:27:12,790
So, we can complete the football field and other fields that will be in this site,

962
01:27:16,900 --> 01:27:17,200
Navarrete.

963
01:27:17,780 --> 01:27:23,480
We're finishing there's some punchary items, basically on the football field on the blisters.

964
01:27:24,280 --> 01:27:28,600
And again, this is so pleasant, it's expected to be closing out in November.

965
01:27:35,840 --> 01:27:40,480
And then, according to our high school, we're there about 85%

966
01:27:40,480 --> 01:27:49,760
Our building B is now 80% completed, we have a, we're securing our temporary occupancy in December,

967
01:27:51,120 --> 01:27:57,200
and then the classroom occupancy will start in January of 2020.

968
01:27:59,000 --> 01:28:02,240
Again, there's some of the pictures,

969
01:28:04,300 --> 01:28:07,020
and we plan to complete this project in March of 2020.

970
01:28:07,020 --> 01:28:07,900
And

971
01:28:10,940 --> 01:28:14,080
that's what we have.

972
01:28:14,440 --> 01:28:14,880
Make questions.

973
01:28:18,700 --> 01:28:19,640
I have one question.

974
01:28:20,100 --> 01:28:23,020
I know that we took action a couple of months ago on doing

975
01:28:23,020 --> 01:28:26,340
the change order for the Coronado project to include the

976
01:28:26,340 --> 01:28:27,620
Descoping if I'm not that.

977
01:28:28,120 --> 01:28:29,460
I'm pretty sure I'm right on this.

978
01:28:30,340 --> 01:28:32,820
I know that we were waiting to get back from the company

979
01:28:32,820 --> 01:28:34,680
whether or not they approved our change order.

980
01:28:34,980 --> 01:28:37,000
Do we have any updates on that at all?

981
01:28:40,040 --> 01:28:41,600
They just think it's sign up on it.

982
01:28:42,020 --> 01:28:43,980
Okay, so that proposed time on that we had that day.

983
01:28:43,980 --> 01:28:46,500
that's kind of the new time on about what we're holding ourselves to.

984
01:28:46,500 --> 01:28:46,780
Correct.

985
01:28:47,060 --> 01:28:48,960
Okay, and that's without that stage, Dr. Correct.

986
01:28:49,660 --> 01:28:53,540
Are we working in parallel to identify the next steps?

987
01:28:54,060 --> 01:28:56,080
I know we talked about looking at descoping it,

988
01:28:56,180 --> 01:28:58,580
but still identifying a way to get that stage structure

989
01:28:58,580 --> 01:29:00,220
put in place as promised the community.

990
01:29:00,820 --> 01:29:02,700
Are we already, I do a June RP for that?

991
01:29:02,880 --> 01:29:04,380
If so, are we already finding that

992
01:29:04,380 --> 01:29:07,680
so that we can minimize the construction on that campus?

993
01:29:07,860 --> 01:29:11,100
Correct. We're hoping to do that during the summer months,

994
01:29:11,100 --> 01:29:13,660
so that we minimize disruption to the campus.

995
01:29:14,400 --> 01:29:15,580
The construction correct.

996
01:29:16,020 --> 01:29:18,180
So do we have an idea of the timeline of the RFP

997
01:29:18,180 --> 01:29:20,360
since that takes months to kind of,

998
01:29:20,360 --> 01:29:22,740
well, we're looking at the possibility of using

999
01:29:22,740 --> 01:29:25,400
our one of our on-call contracts if possible.

1000
01:29:26,760 --> 01:29:30,280
But we can get you a better update at the next report.

1001
01:29:30,440 --> 01:29:32,720
Yes, this time, if you wouldn't mind including that,

1002
01:29:32,760 --> 01:29:34,480
I know it's been a couple months, we've got update.

1003
01:29:34,840 --> 01:29:36,560
But with the RFP process taken as long as it does,

1004
01:29:36,660 --> 01:29:37,660
if we're going to hit this summer,

1005
01:29:38,760 --> 01:29:40,660
we need to get that RFP launched here pretty quickly,

1006
01:29:40,660 --> 01:29:42,320
So that we can do the interviews and do a thing we do.

1007
01:29:42,360 --> 01:29:44,260
If we do on call as a suggested here,

1008
01:29:44,380 --> 01:29:45,460
I know it's obviously a different process,

1009
01:29:47,420 --> 01:29:48,360
but Mr. calls on here.

1010
01:29:48,500 --> 01:29:50,380
So in his absence, I will say we promised it to the community

1011
01:29:50,380 --> 01:29:52,600
of the campus that that change structure was going to be there.

1012
01:29:53,080 --> 01:29:54,480
It's our duty to do it.

1013
01:29:54,660 --> 01:29:55,960
If he was here, you'd be saying the same thing.

1014
01:29:56,140 --> 01:29:57,940
So if we can just get an update on that, I appreciate it.

1015
01:29:57,940 --> 01:29:58,500
OK, miss.

1016
01:29:59,000 --> 01:29:59,520
Thank you.

1017
01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:08,060
And nothing else. So, thank you very much. And that takes us to the final item, which is 10 items on next month, agenda.

1018
01:30:08,140 --> 01:30:12,100
I'm a overview of future board meeting agenda items. Yes. Thank you, President.

1019
01:30:12,280 --> 01:30:22,000
Anybody in trustees? Really, I want to remind you all that my summative evaluation for school year 2223 is

1020
01:30:22,000 --> 01:30:29,280
is slated for October 30th, information about that has been in the board update packet.

1021
01:30:29,620 --> 01:30:32,400
So I would call your attention to that.

1022
01:30:32,840 --> 01:30:37,160
And Mr. Rattabali will be sending out specific information on how to complete the scoring

1023
01:30:37,160 --> 01:30:40,520
for the summative evaluation in November.

1024
01:30:40,780 --> 01:30:50,900
We just discussed the possible overview of House Bill 3 student outcome data, included with

1025
01:30:50,900 --> 01:30:58,260
of the screener information. And then a lot of emphasis on our quarterly financial reports and

1026
01:30:58,260 --> 01:31:02,920
our annual financial report with the independent auditor. So those are some things that are

1027
01:31:02,920 --> 01:31:09,540
slated for November. Any other requests or considerations as we continue to plan our November

1028
01:31:09,540 --> 01:31:11,580
board agenda from the board.

1029
01:31:13,860 --> 01:31:16,600
Terms of updates or reports. Okay.

1030
01:31:21,580 --> 01:31:33,020
are meeting for this month. I know that the board approves several months ago to move the November board meeting up and it is on November 7th.

1031
01:31:34,640 --> 01:31:36,380
All right, that's it.

1032
01:31:36,560 --> 01:31:38,320
All right, so that's on 11 adjournment.

1033
01:31:38,480 --> 01:31:41,720
It is now 637 and we will conclude the meeting.

1034
01:31:41,820 --> 01:31:44,020
Thank you, everyone. Have a good night and welcome Mr. Pearson.
