Minutes:
Dr. Michael Cubacub, Director of Technology, Assessment, Research and Evaluation, provided a presentation on the 2018-19 CAASPP data.

California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP)

The 2018-19 CAASPP consists of the Smarter Balanced summative assessments taken by students in 3rd through 8th grades and students in grade 11 in English Language Arts (ELA) and mathematics.

CAASPP also has science assessment (CAST) for grades 5, 8 and 12, for which results have not been released.

N.1.d. Approve Resolution 19-52 Inclusive Schools Week 2019
Rationale:
Inclusive Schools Week began in 2001 and is held annually the first full week of December.  Since its inception, Inclusive Schools Week has celebrated the progress that school have made in providing a support and quality education to an increasingly diverse student population, including students who are marginalized due to disability, gender, socio-economic status, cultural heritage, language preference and other factors.  The Week also provides an important opportunity for educators, students and parents to discuss what else needs to be done in order to ensure that San Leandro Unified School District continues to improve our ability to successfully educate all children.

 
Recommended Motion:

Approve Resolution 19-52 Inclusive Schools Week 2019

Attachments:
Resolution 19-52 Inclusive Schools Week
N.2. Business & Operations
N.2.a. Form J-13A / Request for Allowance of Attendance Due to Emergency Conditions
Rationale:
The attached Form J-13A represents the school district's application to the California Department of Education to exclude October 9, 2019 attendance for all district schools from our annual calculation of Average Daily Attendance.  All district schools that day were closed due to an announced Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS) by PG&E due to high winds and fire danger.   

The cause of the shutdown is described in Form J-13A as:  All schools in the San Leandro Unified School District were closed on Wednesday, October 9, 2019 due to PG&E's announcement of a Public Safety Power Shutoff that would affect majority of San Leandro. In collaboration with city and county, the district made the decision to close all schools to avoid putting students and staff at risk (no power at intersections or train crossings, no ability to provide meal service, limited phones access and fire alarm systems, dark restrooms and inner corridors, and avoid potential overtaxing of emergency services).

The CDE submission includes PG&E blackout maps showing San Leandro and a news article acknowledging the school closure.

Form J-13A does not technically need to be approved at a board meeting, however it must be signed by a majority of trustees before being forwarded to the County Office of Education and then on to the state.  For reasons of transparency and record keeping, staff is recommending approval of the attached Form J-13A.




 
Recommended Motion:
Staff recommends approval of Form J-13A / Request for Allowance of Attendance Due to Emergency Conditions.

Financial Impact:

By completing and approving Form J-13A, the district avoids losing approximately $675,000 in LCFF revenue for the current year.

N.2.b. Adopt Resolution No. 19-51 Accounting of Development Fees for 2018-19 Fiscal Year in the following fund or account: Fund 25
Rationale:

Government Code sections 66001 and 66006 imposed detailed requirements on public agencies that levy development fees. These sections require school districts collecting statutory school facilities fees to make an annual accounting of those fees available to the public at the end of the fiscal year.

The attached report provides additional detailed information of the developers’ fees which was already made public as part of the Unaudited Actuals report on September 10, 2019.

In addition, Section 66001 requires each district collecting development fees to make additional findings every five years about any fund in which those fees remained un-expended at the end of a fiscal year. The District has expended the fees that are collected annually.

The District's governing board will review this annual accounting and adopt the board resolution for the annual accounting of school facilities fees for the Fiscal Year 2018-19..

Attached are the following:

  • Resolution regarding accounting of development fees for 2018-2019 Fiscal Year
  • Exhibit A
  • Exhibit B
  • San Leandro USD Fund 25 Capital Facilities Five Year Accounting of Revenues and Expenditures

By disclosing these reports, the District will have met the requirements of Government Code sections 66001 and 66006.


 
Recommended Motion:

Adopt Resolution No. 19-51 Accounting of Development Fees for 2018-19 Fiscal Year in the following fund or account: Fund 25.


Financial Impact:

There are no direct fiscal impacts from Resolution 19-51.  However, this annual resolution is required for the district to collect and spend school impact fees.

Rationale:

It provides a comprehensive, data-driven, decision-making process to guide efforts to improve school climate, learning supports, and engagement, as well as identify and increase the quality of health, prevention, and youth development programs.

This Memorandum of Understanding between San Leandro Unified School District and WestEd regarding administration of the California Healthy Kids Survey, the California School Staff Survey, and the California School Parent Survey, which are part of the comprehensive CalSCHLS data system, developed by WestEd under contract with the California Department of Education.

Rationale:

The Resolution for Board consideration has been prepared in accordance with all legal requirements and presents a $198 million bond measure to District voters under Prop. 39 (55% vote) for the purpose of financing projects summarized on the specific Project List attached as Appendix A to the Resolution (Full Text of Measure) which will be printed in the Sample Ballot provided to District voters.  Appendix B is the abbreviated statement of the measure and is limited to 75 words or less that will be printed on the ballot label and read by voters at the time of casting their vote. Appendix C presents the Tax Rate Statement which will also be printed in the Sample Ballot which discloses to District voters current expectations regarding the property tax rates and other matters that will apply if bonds are approved and issued.

In order to call the election, the Resolution must have a 2/3 vote of the Board.
