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 developer fees which was already made public as part of the Unaudited Actuals report on September 15, 2020.

In addition, Section 66001 requires each district collecting developer 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.

It is recommended that the Governing Board review this annual accounting and adopt the board resolution for the annual accounting of school facilities fees for the Fiscal Year 2019-20.

Attached are the following:

• Resolution regarding accounting of development fees for 2019-2020 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.

Adopt Resolution No. 20-50 Accounting of Development Fees for 2018-19 Fiscal Year in the following fund or account: Fund 25.

There are no direct fiscal impacts from Resolution 20-50.  However, this annual resolution is required for the district to collect and spend school impact fees.

Approval is requested to renew the student teaching agreement with the University of San Francisco from August 1, 2020 to June 30, 2025.

A service provided by the California School Boards Association (CSBA) is to provide school districts with recommended updates to school board policies. When the district receives these recommendations, they are reviewed by staff, sent to the San Leandro Unified School District (SLUSD) Policy Committee for review, and then sent to the Board of Education at a regular meeting for approval. SLUSD is committed to ensuring that all board policies remain current and updated.  

In addition to the regular board policy updates, UCP and Title IX board policies and administrative regulations have been included here.   New laws were developed around UCPs.  Therefore the policies have been updated to include this information.  State legislation has new regulations on Title IX information.  Therefore all policies having to do with Title IX policies have been updated.

This new policy was reviewed thoroughly by the school district's COVID-19 Response Team to ensure adherence upon reopening schools.  The policy summarizes the comprehensive process and guidelines to use upon reopening schools.  It addresses safety requirements and addresses student support, staff, food services, grading, attendance and absences, social distancing, PPE and hygiene practices and communicating with the community.

All employees who participate in the district's dental programs are all enrolled in a Delta Dental option.  Employees have the option of enrolling in a low cost Dental Health Maintenance Organization (DHMO) option which is known as Delta Care, or employees can choose a more expensive Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) option.

Currently, our Delta PPO program is coordinated through the Alameda County Schools Insurance Group (ACISG), which is a Joint Powers Authority that also provides our workers compensation insurance coverage.  Our DHMO/Delta Care program is handled directly by Delta Dental.  This proposed updated agreement would shift all DHMO coverage to run through ACSIG.  

This change would not impact employees in any way.  Their current coverage levels, premiums, account numbers, and structure would remain unchanged.  Approval of the proposal would allow for more efficient reconciliation of invoices and tracking of employee dental participation.  It would also provide a simplified process for employees who leave the district to continue to receive dental visits through the COBRA process.   

The updated dental agreement is attached to this agenda item along with the 2021 district premium rate sheet for reference.

The work demands in the Maintenance and Operations Department have increased due to the growth of the district and impact of COVID 19. Additional training, safety measures, and PPE ordering  have been implemented which require a higher level of oversight. Additionally, bond projects for Measure J1 are being completed at the same time that major Measure N projects are beginning.  This requires a Director under Business and Operations to exclusively oversee bond projects and progress.   

The Supervisor of Food and Nutrition Services position in Food Services has also changed significantly. In the past, this position worked primarily with the high school staff with limited oversight at elementary kitchens. The position now has major responsibility for the staffing, ordering, and menus for the entire district.  The implications of COVID 19 have also added additional duties and oversight to this position. The Food Service department also has a current management vacancy that has not been filled since spring.

The San Leandro Scholarship Foundation (SLSF) has worked to develop a program that would provide Child Savings Accounts (CSA) to students attending our district.  Under the terms of the MOU, the SLSF would be responsible for creating and administering the CSA's.  The district would be responsible for providing student data, promoting the program, and educating parents regarding its benefits.

Along with the MOU, it is being proposed that SLSF and SLUSD enter into a data sharing agreement to cover the terms and usage of student data that would be required to create and administer the CSA's.  The data agreement uses a state created template.

Attached with this agenda item is a copy of the MOU and the data sharing agreement.

Personnel staff routinely review and revise job descriptions to ensure they are legally compliant and consistent with the functions and skills required of our positions. Staff is recommending that the board approve revisions to the attached Assessment,Instructional Materials and Multimedia Specialist classified job description. This revised job description has been ratified and approved by the CSEA board.

Approve the revised job description for the Assessment, Instructional Materials and Multimedia Specialist position.

The 2020 TK-12 science instructional materials adoption process began in early August 2020. The committee, composed of TK-12 teachers, administrators and specialists from across the district, engaged in a three month digital and print instructional materials review process to meet the demands of the California Next Generation Science Standards. The committee recommends McGraw Hill's Complete Medical Spanish 4e for San Leandro Unified's Spanish 3 for the Medical Field Course of Study. Report was presented to the Board Curriculum Committee (BCC) on October 21, 2020.

Starting in 2021, SLHS graduates are required to pass both a year of World Language (WL) and a year of Visual and Performing Art (VAPA).  San Leandro High School requests a one year graduation policy change for the graduating class of 2021 to pass either a year of World Language (WL) or a year of Visual and Performing Art (VAPA) due to errors in student scheduling this fall and scheduling conflicts with off campus programs. This waiver will be applied to students who qualify and will be determined and documented by both a counselor and administrator.  This one year policy change will not amount in a reduction of the number of credits required for graduation.

SLUSD's board policy (BP 6146.1) sets graduation requirements beyond the state’s minimum requirements in the Education Code. SLUSD’s local governing board has the authority to revise that policy and modify those additional requirements.

The 2020 6-12 World Language Curriculum adoption process began in early August 2020. The committee, composed of teachers from the world language department, engaged in a pilot and material review with two publishers for each language program. Teachers engaged in training sessions and did the work of deeply diving into the resources to ensure materials met the World Language Standards for California Public Schools. For the French Language curriculum, initial decisions were made based upon information we had from publishers that turned out to not be a viable long term curriculum adoption recommendation and could not be fulfilled by the publisher.  The committee reconvened to review additional curriculum options, and agreed to recommend D'accord by Vista Higher Learning for the French 1-3 Language program.

This agreement is between Chabot-Las Positas Community College District (CLPCCD) and San Leandro Unified School District (SLUSD) to offer a pilot dual enrollment course for San Leandro Unified High School Students the option to enroll in American Sign Language.  We are entering into this CCAP Agreement for the purpose of offering or expanding dual enrollment opportunities, consistent with the provisions of AB 288 (Education Code § 76004), for high school students “who may not already be college bound or who are underrepresented in higher education with the goal of developing seamless pathways from high school to community college for career technical education or preparation for transfer, improving high school graduation rates, and assisting high school pupils to achieve college and career readiness” and “underachieving students, those from groups underrepresented in postsecondary education, those who are seeking advanced studies while in high school, and those seeking a career technical education credential or certificate.” 

American Sign Language is the main sign language in the United States, and the main sign language for many deaf communities in the US. The courses in the ASL program at Chabot college will teach communication skills through the language of sign. The courses also develop students’ understanding of deafness and deaf culture. The program will prepare students to use ASL for personal or career needs, want to communicate with family or friends who are deaf, want to work as an interpreter or bilingual speaker, or just want to learn a new language. Most ASL courses are CSU and UC transferable. Course will be offered after the high school day.  Students will be required to enroll in Chabot College, free of charge, in order to earn the dual enrollment credit.
