Craig Williams, a San Leandro Resident for 20 years, addressed the Board and made a brief comment on AB 329, which he stated is going into effect in January, 2016. It pertains to sex education. He advocated that the school district look into the new act and the sex education topics surrounding it.
Stephen Cassidy addressed the board regarding the Secondary Redesign Community Forum meeting held last night. The school district now has a fantastic leadership team and he believes that the perception of the community is changing in a positive direction towards the schools. It sounds like the district has done a fantastic job of bringing the teachers in the process but the same can't be said for the community and the parents. He believes it's going to take more than two committee meetings. He is not opposed to the district returning to the block schedule. The block schedule that took place back in 2000s was a flop. He thinks the two people who are going to implement a new version are the right people, but you really have to answer questions and get into meaningful opportunities for the community to ask questions and for you to respond and take into account the alternate proposals. Think about what in the process needs to slowed down and put into place what is best for our schools. He thanked the Board for granting him extra time.
Mike Katz-Lacabe, a former Board member, addressed the Board regarding the Secondary Redesign Community Forum meeting, which he also attended. What was clear to him was that there were a lot of questions. Kudos to the staff who led the meeting, which was scheduled from 6:30 - 8:00, stayed past 9pm answering until people got tired of asking questions. They were remarkable and he wished more of the Board would have been there to see and hear the questions from your constituents. So it's important to get to these meetings and participate, hear the concerns the people have, take back questions to staff if need be and communicate with them "what are your ideas moving forward?" He has a student who will be attending the high school this year and has a lot of questions. He doesn't know what's successful and what's working at the high school now and what things need improvement. Judging by test scores, obviously we need improvement.
Darlene Evans addressed the Board regarding mental health. She has attended health board meetings and criminal justice meetings. She also spoke about her concerns for the foster youth in our community. |

District Recreation & Parks Commission representative Ed Shapiro addressed the Board regarding upcoming events and activities taking place.
He submitted to the Board a copy of events taking place this year pertaining to recreation and parks, including a Thanksgiving luncheon for seniors taking place at the Marina Community Center later this month. He stated that the event is looking for volunteers and invited the Trustees to attend if possible.
Mr. Shapiro emailed a document to Dr. McLaughlin regarding the Shoreline Development Project which has been going on in the community for about 40 years. 355 new housing units will be built near the Garfield, Wilson, and Muir school locations. A new branch library will also be built. That redevelopment will impact schools and community in a positive way.
He noted various events that have taken place, such as a Halloween event which involved over 250 children in San Leandro. |

Presentation for Red Ribbon Week. Mayor Cutter read a proclamation for Red Ribbon week to inform the community that the City of San Leandro promotes this program. May Cutter gave the Proclamation to the Executive Assistant. Lieutenant Bob McManus spoke about Red Ribbon Week, stating it has been a pleasure have a partnership with the community which he's grown up in for so long, to give back to those who gave to him. On behalf of the San Leandro Police Department it is an honor and thanked the Board for allowing them to interact with the district's on an annual basis, not only to make our communities better but to guide the children in the right direction and to keep them drug free.
Joanne Clark, Assistant Director of Teaching, Learning and Education Equity, presented information on California Pathway Trust grants. She noted that in 2005 the state recorded that 33% of students drop out of high schools, 33% of students graduate from high school and 33% of students are college ready. The question that comes, "what do we do?" Nationally, we have a million kids a year failing to graduate and too many students going to school without wondering why they are there. There is a study through Career Pathways that says you can change all of that by providing real workplace experience to students during their high school years that are connected to their academic studies. California legislators have called for a boost in education in education for career technology. In 2013-14, $500,000,000 in funds were allocated to career pathways. Currently in our district, we have the Cal Perkins grants, our CTA grant (Partnership Academy Grant) for our finance and business academy. In 2014 we were awarded a California Career Pathway trust grants and pending is a California Career Educational Incentive grant. There are multiple ways that we can utilize college and career centers in our high schools. We're currently working on a roadmap that fits for San Leandro High School as well as Lincoln High School. We're building on current academy successes and looking at ways to fill in the gaps that we need to grow on. The question then comes, we know that a career pathway is supported in rigorous academics and real world applications stemming from knowledge and field experience all around California industry sectors. Currently within our district we have 3 career pathways trust grants: We have CPT Round 1 which was the East Bay Career Pathways which was awarded to us last year. This year, we were awarded a CPT 2, which is an Eden Area ROP and we were also awarded this year CPT 2 which is with Alameda County Office of Education to support our continuation high school. All of the grants that support these four key industry sectors: math and sciences, banking and manufacturing, communication technologies and digital media, and public service and law. Additional sectors that the continuation high school can focus on, if they so choose, is education/early childhood education, building trains and energy, and hospitality and tourism. Ms. Clark gave a background of the grants that were awarded 1. East Bay Career Pathways, it supports the biomedical pathways academy. This year, we were allocated a little over $600,000 for digital media and advanced manufacturing engineering. These are research and development grants that will expire in 2018-19. |

| California is taking a major step toward supporting more students in schools to better prepare them for careers and the 21st century. Through the 2013 and 2014 Budget Acts, the State of California has allocated $500 million to the California Career Pathways Trust Grants. Career Pathways integrate academics with real-world work experiences in fields such as health care, computer sciences, finance and others. San Leandro Unified School District is a recipient of three California Career Pathway Trust Grants (CPT 1, CPT 2, and Alternative Education CPT). San Leandro Unified School District received funding to develop career pathways in the fields of: Biomedical Health Sciences; Advanced Manufacturing & Engineering; Information Communication Technology & Digital Media; and Public Service and Law. Joanne Clark, Assistant Director of Teaching, Learning and Educational Equity, will deliver a presentation about the work the district has conducted thus far on pathways, and our future plans to implement a comprehensive career pathways model across our secondary schools.

We're currently working on a road map that fits for San Leandro High School as well as Lincoln High School. We're building on current academy successes and looking at ways to fill in the gaps that we need to grow on.
A career pathway is a sequence of 3-4 courses partnered with a community college that integrate rigorous academics with technical education around a particular industry sector. Last summer we completed an internship program. We also had 2 middle school camps around robotics and entrepreneurship. We felt is was very important to expose our middle school students to potential career pathways that they will see at the high school level. The Board approved the Internship 101 course, which provides an excellent opportunity for students to earn credits for the internship they are enrolled in. Last week we participated in an East Bay Manufacturing Day where over 120 students from San Leandro High School participated in tours of our businesses in San Leandro and Chabot College to visit the classes that support the pathways. We also recently elected out local pathway action team of teacher leads so each of the four areas of information communication technology & digital medial, public service and law, biomedical health sciences and advanced manufacturing and engineering each have a lead teacher that is taking support to bring back knowledge to the high school and Lincoln around the four pathways.

Paul Disario, Fiscal Advisor, and Aaron Kerrigan, Director of Facility and Opertions, presented a district facility Bond Update. Mr. Kerrigan began by addressing the Board and providing an overview of projects they have been working on, measures and monitors that have been accomplished over the past few years. The San Leandro High School field and pool; district wide seismic upgrades; the Barbara Lee Health & Wellness Center; Student Services and Special Education Building; solar projects at San Leandro High School and Muir; as well as the Career Technical and Education Center.
Current Bond projects include current district wide security fencing, which is 30%-40% complete; district wide painting of all of the schools, Muir & Wilson irrigation projects, which is in process. They are also working on district wide roof evaluations.
Mr. Kerrigan discussed two recent bonds and what has been accomplished with them. Schools are mostly in good condition with a few exceptions.
Mr. Kerrigan stated some of the outstanding needs, which included the portables at various, which are in serious need of replacement. The other thing we've found a need for is replacement of our old heating units in conjunction with upgrading.
Mr. Kerrigan displayed photos during his presentation which reflected the condition of the portables, the older buildings have repairs that need to be made. These are some of the reasons why we've come up with our study. Life expectancy of the portables is 20 years.
Due to increased enrollment over the years, Maintenance has had to obtain temporary housing (classrooms) for some of these students. Many of the portables are leased. We have the option to purchased the leased portables, but because of the age of the portables, they would still need repairs and the district would be paying premium dollars for those. Purchasing the portables is not feasible.
While inspecting the portables they've noticed that many are not ADA compliant. Do we repair the portables or replace them? If repair costs are more than 50% of the value then it needs to be replaced versus repaired.
Modular buildings at Washington elementary were displayed during the presentation. The maintenance department is advocating this if the district decides to go with replacing the portables as a solution versus the traditional portable. The modular buildings are better constructed than traditional portables. More modular examples were displayed.
Many of our current buildings may not meet the needs of our current educational programs. Electrical services are not adequate for future technology upgrades. Technology in the classrooms will need replacement. Deferred maintenance will require an ongoing source of funding which hasn't been available and is something we need to put in our program for the future. Also, drop-off areas in elementary schools should be improved for safety. High school gyms and music rooms need upgrading and should the district enrollment grow, we will need funds to meet the growth.
Rob Mangewala, Director of Technology, explained the need for technology usage in the classroom on a daily basis and the need to discuss going forward in terms of funding. So Mr. Mangewala wants to ensure a plan is in place that can fund something like this . So with this 3-5 year plan will include having to replace our wi-fi, our servers and switches.
We're also talking about security cameras. We have some security cameras across our district but it would be nice to have one unified system that worked well. We are also looking at Smart TVs.
For technology other than infrastructure we're looking into devices. So we need to put something in place that will ensure we are able to replace these devices.

Student Board Member Mason Medeiros reported on homecoming week. He was encouraged to note that over 200 students participated in the rally, which is a much higher attendance than in previous years. He reported that this was the most students taking it the PSAT. But it affected scheduling. A lot of classes were missing students. It was suggested in future years the school enable the students to have a half day of school for students not participating in this exam.
DECA conference competition and he reported that San Leandro High School took most of the first and second place positions in a recent DECA competition.
Regarding three of our sports teams; our girls volleyball team , the football team and boys/girls soccer teams are preparing for NCS which is coming up. The girls volleyball team is playing tomorrow against St. Alegis gym.
Many students are looking forward to having a new block schedule, as are many administrators. Students believe this will be a much better way for them to have class project based learning and labs.

Jon Sherr, Union president, reported that the teachers union and district are involved in. They've met this week on health benefits. The cost of health insurance is terrible and a big issue. They are investigating various options. Currently, about 1/3 of our members get their health insurance through the district and it is expensive. If you are a single parent, you're going to see half of your income go towards health insurance as a new teacher in this district. They've been going to health benefits to research which insurance to identify which vendors to come to our district to make bids.
Also our substitute committee to vote on changing the culture of how we recruit more subs to work in our school district. There is a nation wide teacher shortage. So subs are not readily available. The sub shortage impacts our personal and professional lives and it is a matter taken very seriously and it is a very important issue. Trying to come up with better ways we're not going to be able to pay enough for subs but we want to change the culture of how we can obtain more subs in our district. Frankly, subs are treated very poorly and this won't attract more subs.
Regarding the Wellness Committee is working on initiatives that will promote employee health.
The last committee we are reporting on tonight is a committee will be meeting the first week in December regarding class size reductions, particularly in areas that have clusters with resource kids. It's very challenging to have classes with 3-9 resource kids and 30 non resource kids. We are looking for ways to reduce these class sizes.

| Superintendent McLaughlin commended Dr. Mucetti and Sonal Patel on their presentation at the high school regarding secondary redesign. |
|

Dr. Mucetti discussed the Secondary Redesign meeting that took place last night. The team set up guidelines and markers, and timelines to implement this project. The timeline is not set in stone. Their team is working with the teachers to implement this project. We been focusing on the teacher voice; what are some of the best considerations to work through some of the proposals. There are still refinements and proposals yet to be discussed with the teachers. What was clear from last night's discussions, it was clear from last night's meeting, need to touch base with our community. The secondary parents are very passionate that we make the right decision regarding the secondary redesign program. We are very committed to being adaptive and reflective of the needs of the community for this program. Dr. Mucetti addressed to the board that they have not launched the student components yet but they will design some focus groups and have a survey just for the students to get their input.
Dr. Mucetti commended the schools on the implementation of the PSAT. It was really successful and had a great participation rate.

Dr. Thompson is very optimistic regarding the substitute committee. They are looking forward to exchanging ideas to obtain more substitutes in our district. They've learned it isn't just about the money, but to create an environment where subs want to work.
Lastly, CSEA was to be commended for the proposals and countless hours to put the agreement together. |

Measure B, the $109 million school facilities bond approved by San Leandro voters is providing new construction and modernization projects at all facilities throughout the San Leandro Unified School District. The original project list has been funded, as well as several additional projects made possible through savings. On May 20, 2014, the Board adopted Resolution No. 14-24 to become subject to the Public Contract Code section 22000 et seq., and the California Uniform Public Construction Cost Accounting Act. The Act establishes a uniform cost accounting standard and allows for an alternate method for bidding of public works projects ("informal bidding") by local public agencies. Benefits of becoming subject to uniform public construction cost accounting procedures pursuant to the Act include informal bidding procedures, greater leeway in the execution of public works projects, a streamlined awards process, improved timelines of project completion, and simplified administration. Under the Act: - No bids are required for projects of $45,000 or less
- Employees may be used for the projects
- Allows for negotiated contracts
- Purchase Orders may be used
- Informal bids may be used for projects of $175,000 or less
- Contractors must be prequalified, with the list annually update by each November
- Formal bidding procedures are required on projects of more than $175,000
Since the estimate for this project was less than $45,000, the CUPCCAA informal bidding procedures were not required. Staff solicited and received quotes from three contractors on the approved CU PCCAA Contractor list. Western Roofing, a SLUSD approved CUPCCAA Contractor, was awarded the Contract based on their negotiated Proposal amount of $16,475 and their ability to complete the project per the District's schedule. A Notice of Award will be issued to Western Roofing.

Staff is recommending that the SLUSD Board of Education increase hourly and daily rates for our substitute, short term and exempt employees. This proposal would increase the certificated substitute daily rates to address the national substitute teacher shortage by providing incentives to work more days in our district. It also increases the rate for long-term assignments and "high impact" days. In addition, this proposal increases the hourly rate for non-certificated substitute and exempt employees to a "living wage" of $15 per hour. Staff is hopeful that the new rates will attract more and better qualified candidates, which could reduce the amount of overtime pay and certificated in lieu compensation that is required for unfilled substitute assignments.
