An annual requisition for Dunbar Armored, INC is generated by Food and Nutrition Services Department. 

The Food and Nutrition Services Department has floor safes in the kitchens at each school site. Deposits from the parents are collected and recorded in the Point of Service computers.  The money is then counted, recorded and placed in the safe at the end of the day. Nutrition Services Department contracts with Dunbar Armored Trucks to come to the sites weekly to pick up the money bags and take them to the bank.  When the bags are picked up by Dunbar staff, our Nutrition Services Assistants sign a log sheet confirming number of bags pick up and amount of money listed in each bag.

Our objective is to ensure the safe transfer of cash and checks from our school sites to the bank.

Recommend to approve the contract with Dunbar Armored, Inc. to transfer monies from the cafeteria sites to the bank.

The estimated total cost is not to exceed $17,000 for the 2017-18 school year and will be paid from Food and Nutrition Services Fund.

Education Code Section 42603 permits the Governing Board of any school district to direct that monies held in any fund or account may be temporarily transferred to another fund or account of the district for payment of obligations.  The transfer shall be accounted for as temporary borrowing between funds and shall not be available for appropriation or be considered income to the borrowing fund.

The State of California changed the way public schools are funded with the implementation of the Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF), effective July 1, 2013.  As with the prior Revenue Limit Funding Model, districts receive monthly apportionment distributions that vary in amounts which may cause temporary cash flow shortages.  

As a precautionary step, and in order to meet all financial obligations on a timely basis, the Business Services Department recommends that the Board adopt a resolution allowing temporary inter-fund cash borrowings up to $5,000,000 for the 2017-18 Fiscal Year, in case temporary cash shortfall occurs.

The General Fund will repay the current interest as designated by the County Treasurer.  Staff will continue to assess and monitor the District's cash flow.  

Adopt Resolution No. 17-32 for Temporary Borrowing Between Funds.

Interest incurred during the period of inter-fund borrowing.

Article XVI, Section 6, of the California Constitution and Education Code Section 42620 allows for borrowing from the County Treasury, when there is not sufficient cash available to pay its obligations for current operating requirements lawfully incurred in the 2017-18 fiscal year.

The following restrictions apply to this authorization:

1. Maximum amount of authorized borrowing: $10,000,000

2. For Fiscal Year: 2017-2018

3. Shall not exceed 85 percent of the anticipated revenues accruing to the district.

4. Shall not be made prior to the first day of the fiscal year nor after the last Monday in April of the current fiscal year.

5. Shall be replaced from revenues accruing to the district before any other obligation of the district is met from such revenue.

Adopt Resolution No. 17-33 for Temporary Borrowing from the Alameda County Treasurer.

Funds borrowed from the county treasury would incur the county's standard interest rate.  The most recent published rate was 0.64% as of May 2017.  Any borrowed funds in the district account would accrue interest at the same rate until spent, bringing the net cost of borrowing for any unused funds to near zero.

SFSPac is a complete system of food safety and sanitation. The system, includes monthly educational training, delivery of cleaning and sanitizing solutions that are biodegradable, butyl free, acid free and carcinogen free, and a complete HACCP Plan.  This contract is for the 2017-18 school year.

The Professional Standards as part of the Healthy, Hunger­ Free Kids Act of 2010 was implemented. The final rule established minimum professional standards for school nutrition personnel who manage and operate the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs. The final rule requires all personnel in the school nutrition programs to complete annual continuing education/training. These regulations are expected to result in consistent, national professional standards that strengthen the ability of school nutrition professionals and staff to perform their duties effectively  and efficiently.

With more onsite cooking, the need for additional training and monitoring is critical to ensure that the foods served to our students are prepared in a safe and sanitary environment. Onsite instruction as well as online videos will be provided. SFSPac will also provide ServSafe Training when needed.

The voters of California approved Proposition 30 on November 6, 2012 and pursuant to Article XIII, Section 36 of the California Constitution, effective November 7, 2012, it is required to create in the State General Fund, an Education Protection Account (EPA) to receive and disburse the revenues derived from the incremental increases in taxes imposed by Article XIII, Section 36(f); 

School districts are required to determine how to use funds received from the EPA, provided that the governing board makes the spending determinations in an open session of a public meeting.   

The language in the constitutional amendment requires that funds shall not be used for the salaries and benefits of administrators or any other administrative costs. 

Each school district shall, annually, publish on its Internet website an accounting of district's EPA funding and how these funds will be spent. 

Attached are the Resolution regarding the Fiscal Year 2017-18 EPA for SLUSD and Exhibit A showing how these funds will be spent.

On December 13, 2010, The Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010 (the Act) was signed into law by President Obama. The Act reauthorized legislation that governs all Child Nutrition Programs (CNP) with new regulatory requirements and other important improvements to the CNPs that serve all school districts including San Leandro Unified students. One major regulatory requirement of the Act is Section 205, Equity in School Lunch Pricing.

Section 205 of the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010 requires School Food Authorities (SFAs) participating in the National School Lunch Program to provide the same level of support for lunches served to students who are not eligible for free or reduced price lunches (i.e., paid lunches) as they are for lunches served to students eligible for free lunches.  

School Food Authorities in the continental U.S. must charge for paid meals using weighted average.

San Leandro’s weighted average price for paid lunch price is currently $2.69 (based on weighted average of the total paid lunches served in October 2016, using the various prices: Elementary $2.50, Middle $2.75, High $3.25). 

Because San Leandro Unified School District’s average paid lunch price is lower than $2.86, paid lunch prices are mandated by the Act to be increased.  We have chosen to propose increasing the high school meal price by $0.25 because of the value (quantity of food) that students are currently receiving with the meal cost at only $3.25.  With this proposed increase, we do not have to adjust elementary or middle school paid lunch prices this year.

San Lorenzo Unified School District is planning the same increases outlined above for the 2017-18 School Year.

Approve increasing the price of paid lunches to $3.50 effective August 16, 2017. 

Increase in local money received for high school meals.  This will be approximately $9,000.00 for the school year. This may be offset by a decreased in paid lunches at the high school level.

San Leandro Unified School District is the recipient of a  $40,000 grant from Kaiser Permanente’s Northern California Community Benefit Program to support the Barbara Lee Center for Health and Wellness programs. The grant, which is titled Healthy, Engaged and Successful: Removing Obstacles to Learning for Middle and High School Students, will support programs that will remove obstacles to learning for students in 6^th-12^th grade that are affected by trauma and violence through resiliency-building interventions and integrated medical and social services.  Programs and services will be offered before, during and after school, as well as individual and group behavioral health counseling. 

Approve the agreement between the San Leandro Unified School District and Kaiser for the awarded grant.

San Leandro Unified School District received a $25,000 grant by the Orange County Department of Education (OCDE) that is tied to a statewide MTSS (Multi-Tiered System of Support) initiative to implement a framework designed to support all student's academic, behavioral and social needs.

 San Leandro Unified School District is part of an initial cohort of 105 schools, districts and county offices of education that will receive sub-grants totaling $3.225 million to participate in the California Scale Up MTSS Statewide (SUMS) initiative, which is funded by the California Department of Education and led by OCDE in partnership with the Butte County Office of Education and the SWIFT Center at the University of Kansas.

MTSS is a comprehensive framework of evidence-based strategies to suport the academic, gehavioral and social-emotional needs of all students.  Reliant on staff collaboration and data-driven decision-making, MTSS guides educators through the process of initiating action plans, tracing progress and making improvements in a number of critical areas.  As such, it has been used to increase attendance, prevent dropouts, lower discipline rates, enhance school climates and improve academic performance.

Grant funds will support the ongoing implementation of San Leandro Unifed School District's Multi-tiered integrated intervention Support System (MIISS).
