  41. L.2.a Letter of Understanding between Alameda County Social Services Agency (SSA) and San Leandro Unified School District for Direct Certification of Students to Receive Free and Reduced-Price Meals for Fiscal Year 2017-2018 Passed 📎 1

    Recommended motion

    Approve the Memorandum of Understanding between Alameda County Social Services Agency and San Leandro Unified School District for direct certification of students to receive free and reduced-price meals for fiscal year 2017-2018.

    Rationale
    The purpose of this Memorandum of Understanding between Alameda County Social Services Agency (SSA) and San Leandro Unified School District (SLUSD) is to carry out the provisions of the U.S. Federal Child Nutrition and WIC Reauthorization Act of 1989, Section 202(b)(1). This act allows a school food authority to certify a student as eligible for free school lunch or breakfast without further application, by directly communicating with the appropriate local agency to obtain documentation of a student status as a member of a CalWORKs and/or Food Stamps and/or Foster Care. This letter of understanding expresses the mutual intent between SSA and SLUSD and establishes the requirements for matching data from SLUSD records and SSA records for Direct Certification of students to receive free or reduced-price meals. The intent is to meet the program goals of the two agencies while maintaining record confidentiality.
    Financial Impact
    There is no charge for this service. However, increased eligibility results in higher lunch counts and federal and state food service reimbursements. And it also increases the district unduplicated count, which results in higher LCFF revenue.

    Recommended motion

As a result, children often benefit from: Better academic performance in the classroom Decline in school absenteeism Become more attentive to their asthmatic needs Increase self-esteem and self-confidence This MOU is a partnership between Breathe California of the Bay Area and San Leandro Unified School District to provide asthma education programs for our schools.

  60. M.2.e Citizen's Bond Oversight Committee Membership Passed 📎 1

    Recommended motion

    Recommend to approve the proposed Citizen's Bond Oversight Committee Membership.

    Rationale
    Our district adopted by-laws for the operation of the CBOC at the January 24 Governing Board meeting. The by-laws call for the following membership: Parent (1), Parent Organization (1), Business Organization (1), At-Large (2), Tax Organization (1), Senior Organization (1). The Facilities and Technology committee reviewed applications and is forwarding the following list to the Governing Board for consideration. Because the district did not receive applications from anyone representing either a bona-fide taxpayer organization or an active senior organization, F&T selected two at-large members to serve one year terms for those positions.

    Recommended motion

    Recommend to approve Facility Use fee schedule.

    Rationale
    District facility use fees were last adjusted in 2013. The current proposal is to increase the current fee schedule by 3% (most fees) with an effective date of July 1, 2017. This proposal covers all facility rental except those related to the Arts and Education Center at San Leandro High School. A future proposal will be brought to the Board to increase AEC rental fees. The 3% increase would also be applied to the current agreement with the "Drowning Darryls" for use of the pool. The proposal includes language for annual fee increases based on the Consumer Price Index.
