GO THROUGH A PROCESS OF ACTUALLY SCORING THE SUBMITTAL BASED ON A RUBRIC AND THOSE THAT MEET THE QUALIFICATIONS OF SCORING ACTUALLY ARE AWARDED THE SCHOOL BOARD OF DISTINCTION AWARD.

THAT EMAIL ALIASES DISTRIBUTED TO EVERY MEMBER OF THE BOARD.

WE WILL START WITH THE FIRST ITEM. JENNIFER BELL.

>> I'M HERE TO DISCUSS ANTI-SEMITISM OCCURRING IN OUR COMMUNITY AND THE LACK OF RESPONSE FOR THE DISTRICT TO THE ATROCITIES THAT TOOK PLACE ON OCTOBER 7. A LOCAL JEWISH COMMUNITY HAS BEEN DISCUSSING THE INFLUX OF ANTI-SEMITIC AGGRESSIONS HAPPENING AT OUR SCHOOL SINCE THE MASSACRE IN ISRAEL.I WANT TO PREFACE BY REMINDING THE BOARD OF THE STANDS ON MEETING WITH EQUITY. WE WILL WORK TO HARNESS AND INCLUDE THE POWER AND WISDOM OF HISTORICALLY MARGINALIZED AND TRADITIONALLY NONDOMINANT COMMUNITIES.

JEWS MAKE UP .2% OF THE WORLD POPULATION. IN THE PAST 15 YEARS THERE'VE BEEN SEVERAL MAJOR ATTACKS ON JEWS IN THE UNITED STATES. WE HAVE BEEN HUNTED AND EXILED GLOBALLY FOR MILLENNIA AND JUST SINCE 1945 WE ARE DOWN AT WELL OVER 6 MILLION JEWS.

[00:10:09]

MANDATED HALF MASK FLAGS WITH THE GENERICALLY VAGUE RATIONALE IN RECOGNITION OF LIVES LOST ART CRYPTIC AND AMBIGUOUS RESPONSES THAT DO NOT RECOGNIZE THE EMOTIONAL IMPACT THESE ATTACKS HAVE HAD IN OUR JEWISH STUDENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES. THE NEUTRALITY IS EVIDENT THEREFORE THIS NEUTRALITY BEGS THE QUESTION WHAT IS THIS PUBLICIZED COMPASSION WHEN IT COMES TO CHOOSE? THIS SENDS A MESSAGE TO CHILDREN THAT MARGINALIZATION ONLY MATTERS UNDER HIGHLY SPECIFIC PRECEDENTS. STUDENTS ARE KEY SCARED TO IDENTIFY THEMSELVES AS JEWISH. AS THIS ANGRY MOB GROWS PREPONDERANT SO DOES THE THREAT FOR JEWS AROUND THE WORLD. THIS PAST WEEKEND MY SISTERS SYNAGOGUE IN SEATTLE WAS SENT A THREATENING LETTER PROMPTING THE FBI TO ADDRESS THE SITUATION.

THE REALITY IS THAT YOUR WORDS AND LACK OF WORDS HAVE A FUNDAMENTAL IMPACT ON THE SAFETY OF US AND MORE IMPORTANTLY OUR CHILDREN. WE WITNESS THE RESULTS OF INSTITUTIONS TAKING AN OBSCURE STANCE ON ANTI-SEMITISM. THIS PAVES THE WAY FOR INDIVIDUALS TO CONCLUDE THEIR IMMUNE FROM CONSEQUENCE BECAUSE THOSE IN POSITIONS OF POWER WILL REPRIMAND THIS BEHAVIOR. THE HOLOCAUST DIDN'T START WITH GAS CHAMBERS.

IT BEGAN WITH HATE SPEECH, INTOLERANCE AND THE MOST PROFOUND DETERMINATE SILENCE AND INDIFFERENCE. WE URGE YOU DOCTOR HOMAN AND THE BOARD TO MAKE A CLEAR CONCISE STATEMENT CONDEMNING THE ACTS OF TERRORISM AGAINST THE JEWS.

WE URGE YOU TO NOTIFY THE STUDENT BODY THAT ANTI-SEMITISM WILL NOT BE TOLERATED AND WE URGE YOU TO IMPLEMENT THE SAME LEVEL OF CARE AND EDUCATION THAT YOU DO FOR THE OTHER MARGINALIZED COMMUNITIES OF OUR DISTRICT. YOUR LACK OF RESPONSE WAS A RESPONSE AND WE HEARD IT LOUD AND CLEAR. [APPLAUSE]

>> NEXT WE HAVE GHAZI UNDERMINE SHAHAR. >> HELLO EVERYONE.

I HAVE THREE KIDS IN LAKE WASHINGTON SCHOOL DISTRICT, TWO ARE CURRENTLY IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL AND MY THIRD IS IN PRESCHOOL ABOUT THEM. KINDERGARTEN.

I AM JEWISH AND ISRAELI AND I MOVED IN WITH MY FAMILY ALMOST 10 YEARS AGO.

I GREW UP WITH COURAGEOUS GRANDPARENTS THAT SURVIVED THE HOLOCAUST AFTER THEIR ENTIRE FAMILIES WERE MURDERED BY THE NAZIS. GROWING UP WITH THE SURRENDER STORY SURROUNDING ME I COULD NEVER QUITE UNDERSTAND HOW SUCH THINGS COULD EVEN BE POSSIBLE.

UNFORTUNATELY THE PAST THREE WEEKS PROVED TO ME VERY QUICKLY HOW HATE SPREADS SO QUICKLY.

SINCE OCTOBER 7 HOW MOST SUPPORTERS AND OTHER ANTI-SOMATIC PEOPLE HAVE THREATENED AND TARGETED ISRAELI INDIVIDUALS AND INSTITUTIONS AROUND THE WORLD.

IT'S THE UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON AND STREETS OF SEATTLE ON SOCIAL MEDIA AND JUST EVERYWHERE. I AM A CRIMINAL PROSECUTOR. I REPRESENT THE CITY OF SEATTLE IN CRIMINAL PROCEEDINGS. MY ENTIRE PURPOSE AT MY JOB EVERY DAY IS TO MAKE MY COMMUNITY, OUR COMMUNITY AND THE SURROUNDINGS SAFER PLACE. I HAVE TO ADMIT EVER SINCE OCTOBER 7 FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE I MOVED TO THE UNITED STATES 10 YEARS AGO I FEEL REALLY SCARED. I'M SCARED WHEN I CROSS THE STREET GOING TO MY OFFICE EVERY MORNING. I'M SCARED WHEN I ENTER THE AIRPORT WHEN I'M SUPPOSED TO DO MY JOB. I'M SCARED SPEAKING HEBREW WHEN I WALK OUTSIDE.

I TOOK OFF MY STAR OF DAVID NECKLACE. I'M SCARED WHEN MY KIDS SPEAK UP IN HEBREW ON THE STREET. I'M SCARED TO SEND MY SON WHO ATTENDS THE ISRAELI PRESCHOOL.

WE HAVE PARENTS DOING SHIFTS AROUND THE PRESCHOOL AND KIDS GO TO PLAY OUTSIDE BECAUSE WE

[00:15:04]

WE CAN COME OUT OF THIS STRONGER IN UNITED. I REALLY URGE YOU TO LEARN LESSONS FROM THE PAST. LET'S BUILD A PLAN TO EDUCATE OUR YOUTH IN THE NEXT GENERATION OF LEADERS IN OUR SOCIETY. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND FOR

LISTENING. >> NEXT I HAVE MARINA SHATTUC .

>> MY NAME IS MARINA AND I'M A MOTHER OF TWO KIDS.I HAVE TWO KIDS.

A 10-YEAR-OLD AND A 15-YEAR-OLD. I'M HERE TONIGHT TO SHARE OUR PERSONAL EXPERIENCE OF BEING A JEWISH AND ISRAELI FAMILY. LAKE WASHINGTON SCHOOL DISTRICT PUTS STRONG EMPHASIS ON THE DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION. I'M VERY DISHEARTENED TO SAY THAT IT'S BEEN CHALLENGING FOR US FEEL INCLUDED. ALL THE MORE SO SINCE THEY ATTACK IN ISRAEL A MONTH AGO IT'S IMPORTANT FOR ME TO COME HERE AND TO SHARE THIS WITH THE BOARD. IF YOU ARE IT'S ABOUT OUR FAMILY HISTORY.

MY HUSBAND AND I WERE BORN IN RUSSIA. LIVED MOST OF OUR LIVES IN ISRAEL WHICH IS WHERE OUR CHILDREN WERE BORN. MOVED TO CANADA IN 2016 AND EVENTUALLY HERE IN 2021. MY FAMILY HAS A STRONG JEWISH AND ISRAELI IDENTITY.

WE KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE TO BE JEWISH IN ISRAEL AND OUTSIDE OF IT.

GROWING UP IT WAS AN EASY. I WAS CALLED NAMES BECAUSE MY JEWISH LAST NAME AND HOW DO I DEAL WITH THAT? WE LIVE IN FEAR. IS IT OKAY TO WEAR MY STAR OF DAVID NECKLACE OR NOT? WHY AM I TELLING YOU THIS NOW? I KIDS DIDN'T HAVE TO GO THROUGH THIS FOR MOST OF THEIR LIVES. THEY DIDN'T FACE IT FOR THE 4 AND A HALF YEARS WE LIVED IN CANADA. UNFORTUNATELY THEY LEARNED ABOUT IT FIRST HAND AFTER MOVING HERE. MANY OF OUR FRIENDS HERE HAVE THE SAME EXPERIENCE I WENT ABSOLUTELY DESTROYS ME IS THE LACK OF RESPONSE.

IT'S BEEN A VERY STRESSFUL MONTH. WE ARE WORRIED ABOUT FAMILY AND FRIENDS IN ISRAEL BUT WE ARE VERY ANXIOUS ABOUT THE SAFETY ABOUT THOSE THATARE HERE .

WE WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT THE PROCEDURE BEHIND THESE INCIDENTS SHOULD BE AND WHAT THE CONFLICT AND RESPONSE TIME SHOULD BE. I'M ASKING THIS GROUP TO ENSURE

THAT ANTI-SEMITISM IS INCLUDED AS WELL AS ACTS OF HATE. >> NEXT I HAVE A DARK HOUSE ON

CORVETTES. >> HELLO EVERYONE AND THANK YOU FOR GIVING ME THIS

[00:20:12]

THESE INCIDENTS INCLUDE HARASSMENT, VANDALISM AND THREATS AGAINST JEWS, ISRAELI AND JEWISH INSTITUTIONS. JUST THIS PAST THURSDAY THE ENVELOPE WITH A SUSPICIOUS WHITE POWDER AND HATE MESSAGES WERE SENT TO A SYNAGOGUE IN SEATTLE AND IS NOW BEING INVESTIGATED BY THE FBI. THE SQUIRREL WERE ALSO SPARKED A WAVE OF PROTESTS AND INCIDENTS OF HARASSMENT AND INTIMIDATION ON COLLEGE KANSAN .

JEWISH STUDENTS MIGHT INCLUDED HAVE REPORTED FEELING UNSAFE, ISOLATED AND TARGETED BY ANTI-SEMITIC RHETORIC AND ACTIONS. MANY OF THEM AVOID WEARING ANY JEWISH SYMBOLS WHILE ON CAMPUS. SOME HAVE AVOIDED OR WITHDRAWN FROM CAMPUS ACTIVITIES OR CLASSES. HE ANTI-SEMITIC INCIDENTS ARE ALWAYS FOLLOWING.

ANTI-SEMITISM IS FUELED BY VARIOUS SOURCES OF HATRED SUCH AS WHITE SUPREMACY, RADICAL RELIGIOUS GROUPS AND ANTI-VINE IS ON. ANTI-SEMITISM IS NOT ONLY A THREAT TO CHOOSE BUT TO EVERYONE WHO VALUES DEMOCRACY, HUMAN RIGHTS AND DIVERSITY.

WE CANNOT AFFORD TO BE SILENT OR INDIFFERENT. WE MUST STAND UP AND SPEAK AGAINST IT. WE MUST EDUCATE OURSELVES AND OTHERS ABOUT THE HISTORY AND REALITY OF ANTI-SEMITISM. WE MUST WORK TOGETHER TO CREATE A CULTURE OF RESPECT, INCLUSION AND SOLIDARITY AMONG PEOPLE REGARDLESS OF THEIR RELIGIOUS RACE OR BACKGROUND.

THIS IS WHY I'M HERE TODAY TO YOU. THE LAKE WASHINGTON DISTRICT TO MAKE STRONG STATEMENTS AGAINST ATROCITIES COMMITTED AGAINST ISRAELI CIVILIANS ON OCTOBER 7 BY THE TERROR ORGANIZATION HAMAS AND THE ANTI-SEMITISM INCIDENTS THAT IS SWEEPING OUR COUNTRY. TO FULFILL YOUR MISSION STATEMENT YOU MUST ENSURE THAT EVERY STUDENT'S FUTURE IS SECURE. NOT JUST ACADEMICALLY BUT ALSO SOCIALLY AND EMOTIONALLY. HE MUST ENSURE THAT EVERY STUDENT LEARNS TO RESPECT AND RESIST THE FORTUNATE OF HATRED AND INTOLERANCE. ANTI-SEMITISM IS NOT A JEWISH PROBLEM. IT IS A HUMAN PROBLEM AND IT REQUIRES A HUMAN SOLUTION.

WE HAVE A ROLE TO PLAY. AND WE HAVE A STAKE IN THE OUTCOME.

TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE OUR DISTRICTS, OUR COMMUNITY AND OUR SOCIETY IS SAFER AND BETTER PLACE FOR EVERYONE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION AND COMMITMENT.

[APPLAUSE]. >> NEXT I HAVE A SHY SCHWARZE. >> THANK YOU FOR GIVING ME THE OPPORTUNITY TO ADDRESS YOU TODAY. I'M HERE TO SHARE ABOUT THE RECENT ANTI-SEMITISM HAS AFFECTED MYSELF AND MY KIDS ENERGY TO ACT QUICKLY WITHIN THE SCHOOL DISTRICT. I HAVE TWO KIDS IN LAKE WASHINGTON SCHOOL DISTRICTS.

BOTH HAVE BEEN TARGETED FOR ANTI-SEMITIC TAX. SINCE THE TERROR ATTACKS ON

[00:25:15]

MY 12-YEAR-OLD HEARD KIDS IN HER CLASS LAUGHING. JEWS ARE GOING THROUGH THE COLLEGE COST 2.0. MY SON WAS APPROACHED BY A GROUP OF KIDS THAT YELLED IN HIS FACE FOR PALESTINE.N OCTOBER 13 A QUESTION WHETHER OR NOT TO SEND MY KIDS TO SCHOOL BECAUSE AHEAD OF HAMAS ANNOUNCED A GLOBAL DAY OF JIHAD.

DUE TO THE RECENT EVENTS THERE ARE 400% OF INCREASE IN ANTI-SEMITIC ACTS.

FOR JEWS IT'S ONLY 2.4% IN THE US POPULATION AND ITS PROPORTIONATELY TARGETED.

IN 2022 JEWISH HATE CRIME ACCOUNTED FOR OVER 50% OF HATE CRIMES IN HAMAS.

IN NORMAL TIMES THE CALL TO FREE PALESTINE IS KNOWN ANTI-SEMITIC.

>> I FEAR THIS COULD LEAD TO GREATER CIRCUMSTANCES. >> NEXT WE HAVE ASKED BEN

RICHTER. >> ARE THOSE THAT DON'T KNOW I AM ASKED BEN RICHTER.

I AM IN PARENT OF TWO MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS. I'D LIKE TO SAY THANK YOU TO THE BOARD AND TO SUPERINTENDENT HOLMAN AS WELL AS THE STAFF AND FACILITY AND MAINTENANCE THAT HAVE BEEN WORKING ON THE ATHLETIC FIELD. EQUIPMENT HAS SHOWN UP AND MAINTENANCE APPEARS TO BE HAPPENING. IT'S BEEN A REALLY GREAT

FEELING SO THANK YOU. >> I TYPED OUT AND SUBMITTED A SEPARATE WRITTEN COMMENT BECAUSE IT WOULDN'T FIT IN THE THREE MINUTES TO TOUCH ON A BUNCH OF TOPIC NOT JUST EVERGREEN.MY PURPOSE IN WRITING IT WAS TO GET SOME THINGS OUT.

I WANTED TO ENCOURAGE MORE WAYS FOR THE DISTRICT TO COME TOGETHER IN EXCHANGE FOR

INFORMATION THANK YOU ON BEHALF OF OUR STUDENTS. >> WE HAVE TWO INDIVIDUALS

[00:30:10]

THAT IS THE EXTENT OF OUR ORAL PUBLIC COMMENT THAT WE ARE RECEIVING TONIGHT.

I ALSO WANT TO NOTE THAT THE BOARD RECEIVED WRITTEN PUBLIC COMMENT FROM 10 INDIVIDUALS IN ADVANCE OF THE MEETING ALSO AROUND THE REQUEST FOR IMPROVEMENTS AND SET THE EVERGREEN MIDDLE SCHOOL FIELD. THANK YOU TO THOSE THAT SUBMITTED THOSE AND JUST A REMINDER FOR EVERYONE WHO PROVIDED PUBLIC COMMENT TONIGHT THAT YOU CAN EMAIL THE BOARD AT BOARD MEMBERS@LWST.ORG. THE NEXT ITEM ON THE AGENDA IS THE APPROVAL OF THE NOVEMBER 6,

[E. Consent Agenda]

>> SO MOVED. >> SECOND. >> IT IS BEEN MOVED AND SECONDED. DOCTOR HOLMAN WILL BE PLEASED CALL THE BOARD.

[F. Non-Consent Agenda]

ONTO THE NON-CONSENT AGENDA. TONIGHT WE WILL BE MONITORING TO HAVE OUR 14 OPERATIONAL EXPIRATION POLICIES. THROUGH THESE POLICIES THE BOARD ESTABLISHES ITS VALUES ABOUT HOW THE SCHOOL DISTRICT IS EXPECTED TO OPERATE ON THE EXPRESS CONDITIONS THAT MUST EXIST AS BUSINESS IS CONDUCTED. THE MONITORING REPORTS CONTAIN THE SUPERINTENDENTS INTERPRETATION, A REVIEW OF CURRENT CONDITIONS AND MONITORING DATA.

THEY MAKE A PART OF THE BOARD'S OVERSIGHT OF THIS ORGANIZATION AND ASSURES THAT THE BOARD IS OPERATIONAL AND STANDARDS HAVE BEEN MET. FOLLOWING THE PRESENTATION THE BOARD WILL HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY FOR QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS SO DOCTOR HOLMAN WILL YOU PLEASE PRESENT THE SUMMARY OF THE FIRST MONITORING REPORT WHICH IS FOR OE- NINE COMMUNICATION

AND ENGAGEMENT WITH THE COMMUNITY. >> THE BOARD RECEIVED A WRITTEN REPORT ABOUT A WEEK AND HALF AGO LAST THURSDAY AND SO THIS IS A SUMMARY OF THAT REPORT WHICH IS ALSO PART OF THE PORTS PACKET TONIGHT. AND SO OE- NINE ENSURES THAT THE COMMUNITY IS INSURED WITH THE ENGAGEMENT WITH DEFINING AND SUPPORTING ITS DIRECTION.

THEREFORE SPECIFIC POLICY COMPONENTS WITHIN THIS POLICY THAT WOULD BE REPORTED TONIGHT.

THE REPORT IS PROVIDED TO YOU AS IN COMPLIANCE. TO ENSURE THE FLOW OF COMMUNICATION TO BUILD UNDERSTANDING AND SUPPORT FOR DISTRICT EFFORTS WE HAVE TWO SPECIFIC INDICATORS THAT WE APPROVE FOR THIS POLICY AREA FOR MEASUREMENT.

[00:35:07]

HER POSITIVE DISCUSSION. THE DISTRICT USES WEBSITE TOOLS TO ENSURE ACCESS.

WE HAVE 110+ LANGUAGES SPOKEN IN THE DISTRICT. LEAVE TRANSITIONED AWAY FROM LET'S TALK A COUPLE YEARS AGO AND IMPLEMENTED WHAT WE CALL CONTACT LOSS ON THE DISTRICT WEBSITE. WE RESPONDED TO OVER 1100 COMMUNICATIONS TO THAT TOOL LAST SCHOOL YEAR. 9.2 STATES THAT WE WILL MAINTAIN FAMILY ENGAGEMENT THAT RECOGNIZES THE DEVELOPMENT AND THE NEEDS OF OUR DIVERSE STUDENTS AND ENSURES ACTIVE PARTICIPATION OF STUDENTS FAMILIES. WE HAVE TWO INDICATORS THAT HAVE BEEN APPROVED FOR THIS POLICY COMPONENTS. IT'S JUST SUMMARY OF THE DATA.

DISTRICT USES MULTIPLE STRATEGIES TO ENGAGE IN DIVERSE COMMUNITIES THROUGH THOSE PROCESSES. AGAIN USE A NUMBER OF WEB TOOLS AND PARENT SQUARED TO BE ABLE

TO CONDUCT THOSE ENGAGEMENTS AND COMMUNICATIONS. >> 9.3 STATES TO DEVELOP CONNECTIONS AND STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIPS THESE ARE FORMAL PARTNERSHIPS THAT ARE REPORTED TO YOU. MANY OF THESE ARE FORMAL. AS WE THOUGHT ABOUT SOME AREAS THAT WE DIDN'T HAVE AS MANY PARTNERSHIPS THAT WE WERE REPORTING TO THE WILL CALL YOUR ATTENTION TO THE EXCELLENT STAFF AND USE OF RESOURCES. INITIALING THE PARTNERSHIP WITH CASCADIA COLLEGE FOR EDUCATORS. THERE ARE MANY WAYS THAT WE ARE THINKING ABOUT HOW DO WE FIND EMPLOYEES TO SUPPORT STUDENTS AND SO I APPRECIATE OUR HUMAN RESOURCES DEPARTMENT PROVIDING THEM. WE HAVE A FORMAL PARTNERSHIP WITH MICROSOFT.

WE HAVE CONTRACTS WITH THEM FOR TECHNOLOGY SYSTEMS BUT WE ALSO HAVE A FORMAL PARTNERSHIP WHERE WE ACTUALLY WORK WITH THEM FOR THE BETTERMENT OF OUR DISTRICT. WE PARTNER WITH INITIATIVES IN SUPPORT. CAN WE PILOT SOMETHING IN THEIR SCHOOL DISTRICT? WE GAIN ACCESS TO NEW AND EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES THAT WAY. THINGS LIKE THE CHAT ENTERPRISE IS A TOOL THAT IS INCORPORATED INTO EVERY STEP AND EVERY STAFF MEMBER'S PROFILE.

[00:40:05]

AND THE BOARD IS PRESENTED AS IN COMPLIANCE. >> ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS

ABOUT ANYTHING IN THE PRESENTATION THIS EVENING? >> NOT A QUESTION BUT A COMMENT. I WANTED TO CONGRATULATE THE IDEA OF WORKING WITH AN

ORGANIZATION LIKE THIS. >> ONE OF THE THINGS I WAS LOOKING FOR BUT DIDN'T SEE WAS COMMUNICATION AROUND INCLUSION. WITH THAT BEING A BIG INITIATIVE FOR THIS YEAR CAN YOU HOW YOU FELT THAT WENT AND HOW WHAT IS CONTINUING GOING FORWARD?

>> ABSOLUTELY. I THINK THIS IS ABSOLUTELY A DEMONSTRATION WITH TO A COMMUNICATING AND FEEDBACK. WE WANT FEEDBACK AND INFORMATION AROUND INCLUSION.

FROM THAT WE DID BOTH WRITTEN COMMUNICATION AND DEVELOPED A SERIES OF VIDEOS THAT WE PUSHED OUT TO OUR FAMILIES AROUND INCLUSION. I BELIEVE IT'S A SERIES OF SIX OR SEVEN DIFFERENT VIDEOS. TO ME THAT DOES A GREAT JOB OF HEARING FROM THE VOICES OF DISTRICT LEADERS BUT ALSO TEACHERS, FAMILIES AND THE STUDENTS AROUND INCLUSION.

INCLUSION IS A WAY WE DO BUSINESS. IT IS SOMETHING THAT WE WILL ALWAYS BE WORKING ON ELEVATE EXPERIENCE WITH OUR STUDENTS AND SUPPORT FOR THE STAFF AND

SHARING WITH THAT FIT WITH FAMILIES. >> ANY OTHER QUESTIONS THAT

WAS IN THE REPORT? >> FOR OE- WHEN AS WELL AS PART OF THAT POLICY OF APPROPRIATE INPUT IT TALKS ABOUT TWO-WAY. WHEN I READ THERE AND A LOT OF IT APPEARS TO BE ONE WAY IN MANY PLACES AND SO MY QUESTION WAS THEY THINK ABOUT SEVERAL COMMITTEES WHICH IS THE DIRECT COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT AND I DIDN'T SEE AS I READ THROUGH THE POLICY THAT THAT WAS ACTUALLY ADDRESSED ANYWHERE.I GUESS I WOULD PUT THAT FORWARD IS A QUESTION AS TO WHAT YOUR TAKE IS ON THE AS TO HOW HE PUT FORTH THE INDICATORS YES IT'S IN COMPLIANCE AND THERE'S NOT A QUESTION THERE BUT I DO KNOW EFFORTS IN THAT AREA ANDIT'S A

VALUE OF THE BOARD . >> I'M NOT ABLE TO PULL THE WORK PLAN UP RIGHT NOW BUT I

[00:45:02]

THEY BOTH SERVE THE OPPORTUNITY FOR FAMILIES TO GIVE INPUT FOR FAMILIES TO RECEIVE INFORMATION AND TO UNDERSTAND THE PROCESS THAT'S BEING WORKED ON. THANK YOU FOR INCLUDING THAT INTO THE BOARDS AND RECENTLY TO ENCOMPASS THAT TO A COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT? ARE YOU OFFERING THAT WE SHOULD PROVIDE INDICATORS OF COMPLIANCE?

>> I THINK WE DO A BETTER DROP DRAFTING. >> WE NEED THE POLICY TO BE MORE EXPLICIT AND TWO-WAY COMMUNICATION. IT'S GREAT THAT WE CAN REACH SO MANY PEOPLE ELECTRONICALLY. IT'S ALSO A DISSERVICE TO OURSELVES.

FOR STUDENTS PARTICULAR IT'S DIFFICULT IF NOT IMPOSSIBLE AT TIMES TO GET OUT AT NIGHT TO HAVE THAT ENGAGEMENT. I WANT TO COMMEND THE PT ESSAY AND THE SPECIAL NEEDS GROUP FOR ALWAYS HAVING SOMEONE THERE FOR CHILD CARE. THEY SHOW UP AND I ENCOURAGE THEM TO USE THAT SAME MODEL WE TRY TO MEET WITH AS MANY SPECIAL NEEDS FAMILIES AND INCLUSION. WE ALSO WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE ARE NOT JUST TALKING TO THE SPECIAL NEEDS PARENTS. WE ARE TALKING TO ALL THE PARENTS BECAUSE ENGAGING THEM AND HAVING THEM BE RECEPTIVE TO IT TO BE QUITE FRANK THE KIDS ARE QUICKER TO RECEIVE AND ENCOURAGE AND INCLUDE THEIR PEERS AND OFTEN THE PARENTS ONLY BECAUSE THE PARENTS DON'T GET TO BE HERE DAY-TO-DAY. THEY HAVE A CONCERN FROM HIRING LEVEL RIGHT THERE ON THE GROUND SO TO SPEAK.I REALLY LIKE TO ENCOURAGE US TO HAVE MORE OF A DIALOGUE WITH THOSE.

ON A REGULAR BASIS WHATEVER IT WOULD ENTAIL IF WE HAVE TO DO IT ONLINE TO BE QUITE FRANK IT

PROBABLY WOULD BROADEN THE GROUP. >> ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS?

[00:50:02]

>> 9.2, MY TAKE ON A RATE THAT IS HOW DO WE ADDRESS THE DIVERSE NEEDS WITHIN OUR COMMUNITY AND ACTUALLY ENGAGE THOSE INDIVIDUALS? HOW ARE WE ENSURING THAT THE DIVERSE RANGE SHOWS UP IN OUR COMMUNITIES AND DIVERSE GROUPS NOT JUST AT THE SCHOOL LEVEL BUT AT THE DISTRICT LEVEL. IT HIGHLIGHTS GREATLY THE WORK WE ARE DOING IN REGARDS TO FAMILY ENGAGEMENT AND THAT'S THE COMMENT THAT I WOULD MAKE AND MAKE SURE THAT IT'S ADDED INTO THE SUMMARY BECAUSE IT'S CLEAR THERE'S A LOT OF GOOD EFFORTS THERE.

MY NEXT QUESTION IS THAT NEXT ENGAGEMENT AT THE COMMUNITY LEVEL.

>> HOW IS A SPECIAL EDUCATION DEPARTMENT ENGAGING? HOW IS THE TRANSPORTATION DEPARTMENT ENGAGING? JUST THINKING MORE ABOUT THIS HAPPENING BUT IT'S THE FAMILY ENGAGEMENT NOT OUR JOB. A LOT OF DIFFERENT DEPARTMENTS HAVE DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVES ON

THE STUDENT EXPERIENCE. >> BEFORE I FORGET WE DO HAVE ON OUR AGENDA ON THE DECEMBER 4

POLICY FOR NINE AND THREE WHICH IS FOR THE STAKEHOLDERS. >> THE THINKING AROUND COMBINING THOSE TWO WITH SOME SHARED INTEREST BETWEEN THOSE TWO POLICIES.E DEVELOPED TWO SEPARATE POLICIES WE DO SOME COMBINATIONS OF THOSE POLICIES TO HAVE A SINGLE POLICY.

>> HEARING NO ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS THANK YOU FOR THE OVERVIEW AND CLARIFICATION.

NOW THE BOARD IS TO CONSIDER THE REPORT AS EVIDENCE OF THE DISTRICT PERFORMANCE IN THIS AREA OF OPERATION AS A REMINDER OF THE CRITERIA THAT WE'VE AGREED TO.

THE SUPERINTENDENT INTERPRETATION OF THE CURRENT POLICY AS WRITTEN IS REASONABLE. WE'VE ALREADY AGREED TO THAT. THE SUPERINTENDENT HAS PROVIDED EVIDENCE TO ENSURE THE BOARD THAT THE ORGANIZATION IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THE POLICY. I WOULD NOT ENTERTAIN A MOTION TO ACCEPT AND APPROVE THE

MONITORING REPORT AS PRESENTED WHICH IS AS COMPLIANT. >> SO MOVED.

>> SECOND. >> IS ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION ON THE MONITORING REPORT?

>> I APPRECIATE THE DISCUSSION PRIOR WITH THE FACT THAT WE WILL HAVE A MEETING ON DECEMBER 4 TO LOOK AT THOSE INDICATORS ON COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT AND REVISIT THOSE POLICIES.

AS WRITTEN YES IT THEN COMPLIANT. I HIGHLIGHT AGAIN THE FAMILY ENGAGEMENT EQUITY WORK IN REGARDS TO SPECIFIC OUTREACH. I THINK THAT'S THE KEY AND IT'S GOOD TO SEE SOME OF THAT PUT OUT THERE. ALSO THE EXPANSION OF THE PARTNERSHIPS I THINK IN MY 12 YEARS ON THIS BOARD THAT IS PRETTY EXTENSIVE OF A SHIFT AS TO WHERE WE WERE. I'D LIKE TO HIGHLIGHT THOSE THINGS AND COMPLY WITH THIS OPERATION. OFTEN WE ARE IN COMPLIANCE BUT THERE IS OFTEN WHERE WE CAN DO TO MAKE IT BETTER SO IT'S NICE TO SEE THAT WORK IS STILL HAPPENING.

>> ANY ADDITIONAL DISCUSSION ON THE REPORT? HEARING NO FURTHER DISCUSSION WILL PROCEED TO VOTE ON THE MOTION. THOSE IN FAVOR PLEASE SIGNIFY BY VOTING AYE. ANY OPPOSED? HEARING ON THE MOTION CARRIES.

>> CAN YOU REMIND ME WHO IS SCHEDULED TO DO THE WORD S

[00:55:02]

BOARD SUMMARY? >> IT IS DIRECTOR STUART. >> OKAY GREAT.

>> CAN YOU REMIND ME WHO IS WRITING THE BOARD SUMMARY FOR OE- 10.

>> YOU ARE OKAY THANK YOU. THE NEXT ITEM OF THE AGENDA IS THE MONITORING REPORT FOR OE- 10 WHICH IS A LEARNING ENVIRONMENT AND TREATMENT OF STUDENTS.

WILL YOU PLEASE PRESENT A SUMMARY. >> JUST A REMINDER THIS IS ANOTHER ONE OF OUR POLICIES THAT IS ON THE AGENDA REVIEW AND UPDATE THIS SCHOOL YEAR.

THIS IS AGAIN THE POLICY AND INTERPRETATION INDICATOR THAT WE'VE AGREED TO KNOWING THAT AGAIN I'M NOT SURE THIS FULLY HITS THE MARK WHERE WE WANT TO BE AS A SYSTEM.

POLICY STATEMENT SAYS THAT THE SUPERINTENDENT SHALL MAINTAIN A LEARNING ENVIRONMENT THAT IS SAFE, RESPECTFUL AND FREE FROM UNNECESSARY DISRUPTION AND CONDUCIVE TO EFFECTIVE LEARNIN . THERE ARE EIGHT COMPONENTS TO THIS POLICY WITH TWO DIFFERENT SECTIONS SITTING AT THE SUPERINTENDENT WILL AND THE OTHER STATES THAT THE SUPERINTENDENT WILL NOT. THOSE ARE TWO DISTINCT PARTS OF THIS POLICY.

I WANT TO INDICATE AS WE WALK INTO THIS MONITORING BUT THERE ARE TWO SPECIFIC COMPONENTS THAT ARE RATED NOT IN COMPLIANCE AND I WILL SHARE THOSE REASONS WHY WITH ONGOING EFFORTS TO GET THOSE INTO COMPLIANCE AND 10.8 IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH EXCEPTIONS AND SO THE REPORT STATES THAT THE SUMMARIES FOR THE BOARD AS WELL.

10.1 STATES TO MAINTAIN A COLLABORATIVE CULTURE THAT ENSURES HIGH EXPECTATIONS THAT ENSURE SUCCESS FOR STUDENTS IN CLASSROOMS TO EQUITABLE ONLINE SYSTEMS WITH SUPPORT.

WE HAVE A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT INDICATORS THAT WE'VE AGREED TO.

THE QUICK SUMMARY ON UNIQUE NEEDS OF STUDENTS, STAFF AND OUR SCHOOLS.

SCHOOL IMPROVEMENT PLANS ARE ALIGNED WITH LEGAL REQUIREMENTS THAT ARE REQUIRED TO HAVE WITHIN THE SCHOOL PROGRAMS. THESE ARE ACTUAL THE MEANINGFUL WORK THAT SCHOOLS ARE WORKING ON AS OPPOSED TO SETTING A GOAL ON THE SHELF. DATA SHOWS THAT WE'VE MADE IMPROVEMENT AND YOU WILL SEE THOSE LATER THIS YEAR WHEN THE BOARD APPROVES THE PLAN.

IT'S THE TANGIBLE WORK THAT SCHOOLS ARE DOING SOCIAL EMOTIONAL WELL-BEING OF STUDENTS. OUR TEACHERS PARTICIPATE IN THE EDUCATIONAL TERM PLC.

PROFESSIONAL LEARNING COMMUNITIES AND WHAT THAT MEANS IS A GROUP OF TEACHERS THAT HAVE LIGHT RESPONSIBILITY. WE GIVE EACH OTHER ADVICE AND FEEDBACK AND THEN REVIEW STUDENT WORK AS THEY WORK THROUGH THEIR IMPLEMENTATION PLANS.

WE ASK OUR TEACHERS TO WORK IN COLLABORATIVE GROUPS AND WE ASK OUR PRINCIPALS TO WORK IN COLLABORATIVE GROUPS. WE SEE THE BEGINNING OF A PRINCIPAL TLC WERE THE ROSE HILL MIDDLE SCHOOL TEAM HAS IDENTIFIED WHAT THEY CALL PROBABLE PRACTICE AND THAT MEANS IT WASN'T FIXED YET. AND SO THEY ARE WORKING ON THE ISSUES AND AREAS RELATED TO INCLUSIONARY PRACTICES AT THE SECONDARY LEVEL IT'S HOW THAT WORK CAN REALLY EXPAND ACROSS THE WHOLE SCHOOL AND SO WE ARE ASKING IF PRINCIPALS CAN DO THAT WORK AND WE DO HAVE SYSTEMS THAT WE ASK OUR SCHOOLS TO IMPLEMENT. MULTITIERED SYSTEMS THE OF SUPPORT. WE HAVE SYSTEMS IDENTIFIED IN SUPPORT THAT.

[01:00:10]

OTHER STUDENTS HAVE IMPROVED FROM 21 TO 22 UNITS STILL HAVE A 6.4 PERCENTAGE POINTS BELOW THE TARGET AND ARE BACKED TO PRE-PANDEMIC NUMBERS. THAT'S THE OTHER POLICY COMPONENT THAT IS NOT IN COMPLIANCE. AND THEN AVOIDING ABSENTEEISM MUST BE HOLISTIC RESPONSE. WHEN WE THINK ABOUT OUR SENSE OF SAFETY IT'S ABOUT THE WORK WE ARE DOING ALONG SOCIAL EMOTIONAL WELL-BEING AND LEARNING TO ENSURE THAT WE ARE IMPLEMENTING OUR POLICIES AS WELL AND WE HEARD FROM HER COMMUNITY TONIGHT AROUND DISCRIMINATION AND THINGS LIKE THAT. MAKING SURE THAT WE ARE RESPONSIVE TO THOSE TYPES OF REPORTS THAT IS HOW WE BUILD A SENSE OF SAFETY AS WE ARE IMPLEMENTING OUR STANDARDS AND CONTINUE TO WORK WITH OUR STAFF AROUND INTERVENTIONS PRODUCT ABSENTEEISM PRE-PANDEMIC, THE SYNDICATOR WAS IN COMPLIANCE. YEAR OVER YEAR WE HAD 90% OR MORE OF OUR STUDENTS AVOIDING CHRONIC ABSENTEEISM. CHRONIC ABSENTEEISM IS DEFINED AS MISSING IN PERCENT OR MORE OF SCHOOL. HUNDRED AND 80 DAYS IF YOU MISS 18 DAYS THAT IS DEFINED IT'S CHRONIC ABSENTEEISM. SINCE THE PANDEMIC WE'VE ACTUALLY SEEN MORE STUDENTS MISSING MORE TIME FROM SCHOOL. INITIALLY 2021, 22 SOME OF THAT WAS RELATED TO STUDENTS REQUIRED TO BE OUT OF SCHOOL BECAUSE OF THE COVID RESPONSE.

WE ARE STILL SEEING AN UPTICK IN 22 AND 23. SHMAINTAINING ANYTHING OVER

[01:05:51]

10.6 AGAIN THIS POLICY COMPONENT IS NOT IN COMPLIANT AND IT STATES THAT THE SUPERINTENDENT MAY NOT TOLERATE ANY ATTITUDES BY ADULTS WHO HAVE STUDENTS THAT HINDER THE ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE OR WELL-BEING OF STUDENTS. JUST A SUMMARY OF THE STATE AGONY OF POLICIES AND PROCEDURES RELATED TO THE STUDENT EXPERIENCE AND INTERACTION. DISTRICT STAFF RECEIVED JUST MAKING SURE AN ONGOING BASIS WE APPRISE OUR STAFF OF OUR POLICIES AS AN IMPORTANT PIECE. THAT NEXT AREA IS WHERE THE POLICY WILL IS OUT OF COMPLIANCE. IT HOLDS A SENSE OF BELONGING AND REMAIN STABLE BELOW THAT 90% THRESHOLD. THERE IS NO CHANGE FROM SPRING 22 TO 23. THERE STRAIGHT SLIGHT INCREASES.

BUT OVERALL BELOW THAT 90% BENCHMARK. OUR STUDENTS REPORT THAT THEIR TEACHERS ARE RESPECTFUL AND THEY REPORT THAT A PRETTY HIGH RATE.

AGAIN, AS WE THINK ABOUT REPORTING ON THE PERCEPTIONS OF OUR STUDENTS, IT IS IN ANY ONE THING THAT WE DO FOR OUR STUDENTS TO EXPERIENCE A SENSE OF BELONGING.IT'S THE WORK OF INCLUSION WHICH HAS BELONGING IS ONE OF THOSE TARGET GOALS TO ENSURE THAT STUDENTS KNOW THAT THEY ARE WELCOME AND SAFE AND THAT THEY ARE PART OF SCHOOLS AND CLASSROOM.

ONGOING PROFESSIONAL LEARNING FROM STAFF AND THE BENCHMARKS IN TURN IS A RESULT FOR THE

[01:10:03]

BEING PROVIDED FOR STAFF. >> 10.7 STATES THAT THE SUPERINTENDENT MAY NOT PERMIT BEHAVIORS ON SCHOOL PROPERTY IN SCHOOLS SPONSORED EVENTS OR THAT ARE DISRESPECTFUL OR DANGEROUS. I CAN POLICY COMPONENTS, WE DO HAVE POLICIES AND PROCEDURES RELATED TO THIS AND WE ENSURE SCHOOLS HAVE THOSE IN THAT THEY IMPLEMENT THOSE PROCEDURALLY WE NOTIFY OUR STUDENTS EVERY YEAR OF THEIR STUDENT RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES.

RECEIVE A SIGNATURE FROM OUR STUDENTS ON THOSE AND WE APPRECIATE THEM FOLLOWING THROUGH WITH THAT BECAUSE THEY DO HAVE RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES.

SOME OF THOSE ARE RELATED TO BEHAVIORS ON CAMPUS. ALSO WE DO REMAIN SIGNAGE WHICH IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE LAW RELATED TO CONTROLLED SUBSTANCES.

FINALLY THE LAST POLICY COMPONENT AND OPERATIONAL EXPIRATION 10 STATES AND I WILL READ IT. THE SUPERINTENDENT MAY NOT ALLOW ANY CURRENT OR FUTURE BUILDING, MASCOTS, LOGOS OR EVENTS TO REFERENCE ARE PORTRAYED BY, PREJUDICE ASSOCIATED WITH RACE, CREED, SEX, NATIONAL ORIGIN, MARITAL STATUS, SEXUAL ORIENTATION, GENDER, HONORABLE DISCHARGE VETERAN OR MILITARY STATUS FOR THE PRESENCE OF ANY SENSORY OR PHYSICAL DISABILITY. ESSENTIALLY THE BOARD HAS AN EXPECTATION THAT WE ARE USING NAMING CONVENTION THAT ARE NOT DISCRIMINATORY. THAT'S INNOCENCE.

IN ESSENCE. WE ALSO FOR SOME REASON DON'T HAVE THE SUPERINTENDENT'S INTERPRETATION SO I THINK THAT'S AN IMPORTANT ASPECT TO THIS.

THE BOARD'S POLICY IS VERY BROAD AND THERE ARE SOME COMPONENTS TO IT FOR ME THAT NEED TO BE DEFINED SO THAT WILL BE AN IMPORTANT PART AFTER WE AGREE TO AN INTERPRETATION I WILL DEVELOP A FORMAL ADMINISTRATIVE PROCESS TO CONDUCT THOSE EVALUATIONS.

IT IS CLEAR HOW WE WOULD WALK THROUGH THIS PROCESS WITH DECISIONS AND THINGS LIKE THAT.

I KNOW THERE'S BEEN SOME QUESTIONS AND I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE ARE THAT'S WHY SAY IT'S IN COMPLIANCE WITH EXCEPTIONS. OVERALL THE REPORT IS PRESENTED TO THE BOARD IS IN COMPLIANT WITH NOTED EXCEPTION AND THAT IS MY REPORT ON OE- 10.

>> FOR THE FRAMEWORK FOR THIS WILL FIRST FIELD ANY QUESTIONS OR REQUESTS FOR CLARIFICATION FROM DOCTOR HOLMAN ON ANYTHING IN THE REPORT. I WILL THEN ENTERTAIN A MOTION AND SUGGESTIONS AROUND THE REPORT. FIRST ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS

OR CLARIFICATIONS IN REGARDS TO THE REPORT? >> THERE WAS A REFERENCE IN THE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ABOUT AN INCREASE IN THE INCIDENT. THIS IS ABOUT DISRUPTIVE INCIDENTS IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY.THERE IS NOTHING IN THE REPORT AND IT'S CLEAR THAT YOU CANNOT PERMIT DISRUPTIVE AND INCIDENTS. DO WE HAVE ANY DATA AROUND SOME OF THE INCIDENTS THAT ARE BEING MONITORED HERE? I HEARD IT TOO.

THAT CLASSROOM CLEARING INSTANCE AND THAT SORT OF THING ON THE RISE.

I'M TRYING TO SORT THROUGH WHETHER THAT'S AN ACTUAL THING OR WHAT SORT OF DATA WE HAVE ON THAT. IS IT CLUSTERS OF CHALLENGES FOR I'M JUST CURIOUS ON THE

[01:15:09]

DATA AROUND THAT. >> AND HAVE TO FOLLOW-UP WITH THE BOARD IF THERE ARE SPECIFIC DATA RELATED TO THAT. I THINK YOU PROBABLY ARE THE SAME ANECDOTAL INFORMATION THAT I HAVE AND I JUST MAKE A COUPLE OF STATEMENTS THAT I BELIEVE TO BE ACCURATE.

COMING BACK FROM COVID BEHAVIOR IN OUR SCHOOLS WAS DEFINITELY DIFFERENT THAN IT WAS BEFORE.

WE KNOW THAT WE SOMEWHERE INCIDENTS OF FIGHTING WITH OUR OLDER STUDENTS OF THOSE THINGS WERE TRUE AND I BELIEVE NOW WE ARE STARTING TO SEE A DECLINE IN THOSE.

I'M GOOD HAVE TO COME BACK AND SEE IF I HAVE TANGIBLE DATA TO REPORT THAT MORE ACCURATELY.

JUST IN GENERAL WE SAW AN INCREASE IN STUDENT DISRUPTIVE BEHAVIOR.

>> WE HAD A QUESTION FOR 10.2. WE WERE WONDERING WHAT GRADE LEVEL HAS THE MOST CHRONIC ABSENTEEISM AND IF IT'S SIGNIFICANT IN EVALUATING HOW WE CAN AVOID THIS ISSUE WE DO HAVE THAT DATA, I DON'T HAVE IT IN FRONT OF ME BUT IT MIGHT BE IN THE REPORT.

WE CAN GET THAT. >> DO WE HAVE DATA ON WHAT'S CAUSING THE STUDENTS TO NOT GO

TO SCHOOL? >> THAT'S A BIGGER QUESTION. WE HAVE WHAT STUDENTS REPORT TO US. THAT'S NOT ALWAYS THE COST. DOES THAT MAKE SENSE? WE HAVE THE REASON THE STUDENT MAY SAY I AM ILL OR I'M SICK. THE STUDENT MAY JUST NOT REPORT ANYTHING. IT'S AN UNEXCUSED ABSENCE. AND SO AT THE HIGH SCHOOL LEVEL OUR ATTENDANCE SPECIALIST WHEN WE HAVE STUDENTS THAT START MISSING TIME FROM SCHOOL THEY INDIVIDUALLY START WORKING WITH THOSE STUDENTS. WE HAVE WHAT'S CALLED COMMUNITY SUPPORT. I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S A TERM THAT YOU WOULDN'T NOT MISS SCHOOL SEE WHAT KNOW ABOUT THAT. THERE ARE ACTUAL LEGAL PROCESSES IN PARTICULAR THE SECONDARY STUDENTS AND IN PARTICULAR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS WHEN THEY ARE MISSING TOO MUCH SCHOOL. THERE IS ACTUAL LEGAL PROCESSES THAT ARE PUT IN PLACE. THE STATE OF WASHINGTON REQUIRED SCHOOL DISTRICTS TO ADOPT WITH CALLED COMMUNITY TRUANCY BOARDS AND SO AN INDIVIDUAL THAT IS CHRONICALLY ABSENT THEN WORKS WITH THE GROUP OF INTERESTED STAFF MEMBERS AND COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO TRY AND IDENTIFY WHAT IS THE REASON FOR THAT ABSENT CONSISTENT ABSENCES AND HOW CAN WE REMEDY THAT AS THE SYSTEM OPPOSED TO GOING TO COURT BECAUSE YOU ARE MISSING SCHOOL.

THOSE SYSTEMS ARE IN PLACE TO PROVIDE BENEFIT AND BEFORE WE JUST USE THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM WHICH WE ARE REQUIRED TO DO AT TIMES BUT THE TRUANCY PORT IS REALLY THAT STEP IN BETWEEN AND THEIR DRIVE REALLY IS TO TRY TO IDENTIFY THE TRUE REASON WHY STUDENTS ARE MISSING.

WE DON'T HAVE THAT DATA CONSISTENTLY READIES BUT THOSE ARE SOME SYSTEMS THAT ARE IN

PLACE TO TRY FOR STUDENTS. >> A FOLLOW-UP QUESTION TO THAT.

PERSONALLY I WAS TAUGHT TO BE A PROBLEM SOLVER INSTEAD OF STARTER.

ARE THERE ANY SPECIFIC THINGS THAT WE ARE DOING TO CURB THIS? ARE THERE SYSTEMS IN PLACE OR

ARE WE JUST RESPONDING WHEN WE SEE THIS BECOME AN ISSUE? >> IN TERMS OF THE CHRONIC

ABSENTEEISM? >> YES X . >> SPECIALISTS WORK WITH STUDENTS WITHIN THEIR COMMUNIT . THEIR JOB REALLY IS TO TRY AND

[01:20:05]

SUSPENDING THE STUDENT FROM BEING ABSENT MAKES ZERO CENTS. AND SO TRYING TO GET TO THAT ROOT CAUSE AND ARM ADMINISTRATORS ARE WORKING THROUGH THAT IN OUR ATTENDANCE SPECIALIST ARE TRYING TO IDENTIFY THE TEACHER THAT COULD BE A SUPPORT. WOULD SAY OUR SCHOOLS WORK PROACTIVE WAYS TO ADDRESS THIS. KIDS AREN'T COMING TO SCHOOL FOR REASON AND MAKING SCHOOL WORSE IS NEVER GOING TO GET KIDS TO COME BACK TO SCHOOL.

>> WE HAVE ONE MORE THING ON 10.5 REGARDING THE VOLUNTEERS. HOW OFTEN OUR VOLUNTEER CHECKS CONDUCTED? ARE THEY ONE AND DONE OR DO THEY HAVE TO REAPPLY EVERY

YEAR? >> GREAT QUESTION. IT'S EVERY TWO YEARS.

>> HOWERY RESPONDING TO REPORTED INCIDENTS REGARDING VOLUNTEERS?

>> TYPICALLY THOSE GET REPORTED THROUGH THE SCHOOLS. MORE OFTEN THAN NOT WE DON'T HEAR ABOUT THOSE AT THE DISTRICT. OUR PRINCIPAL AND ADMINISTRATION OFTEN TIMES WILL MANAGE THAT. IF IT DOES GET BROUGHT TO THE ATTENTION OF THE CENTRAL OFFICE LEADERS THAT LIKE WE WOULD ANY OTHER INCIDENT.

EVALUATE IF IT'S A CONFLICT BETWEEN PEOPLE OR VIOLATION OF POLICY.

IF SO WHICH POLICY WAS VIOLATED AND WE WORK WITH THE SCHOOL THAT VOLUNTEERED TO ADDRESS

THAT. >> I AM GLAD WE ARE ABLE TO RECOGNIZE 10.2 TO THE FOLKS THAT SPOKE HERE TONIGHT.YES I RECOGNIZE THAT THESE INCIDENTS ARE ALMOST ALWAYS HANDLED IN A SCHOOL AND IT RARELY COMES UP. WE NEED TO HAVE A BETTER REPORTING SYSTEM I THINK WHEN IT COMES TO INCIDENTS OF RACISM AND ANTI-SEMITISM. THE KIND OF BULLYING THAT WE TALK ABOUT IS MORE SYSTEMIC. IT CAN BE CLASSIFIED AS HATE CRIMES OR HATE SPEECH.

I THINK WE NEED TO HAVE A SYSTEM IN PLACE WHICH WE CAN RECOGNIZE AND FIGURE OUT IF IT'S A WAY TO ADDRESS IT THROUGH POSITIVE BEHAVIOR MODIFICATION WITH THE STUDENTS.

IF WE HAVE A BETTER WAY OF TRACKING IT AND FIGURING OUT OKAY HOW DO WE ADDRESS IT? WHAT IS THE NEXT STEP. I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE NEXT STEP IS AND IT'S NOT WHAT THE FOLKS HERE TONIGHT. THEY ARE DATA-DRIVEN WITH WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO FIND A WAY TO ADDRESS IT IN THE CLASSROOM AND LESSEN IT TO A DEGREE AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.

>> AM CURIOUS WHAT THE REPORTING SYSTEMS LOOK LIKE. AS COMMENTER SAID TONIGHT

[01:25:08]

IT'S ON ME AS A PARENT. JUST THINKING ABOUT WHAT ARE THE LISTENING SYSTEM AND ARE THEY PICKING UP THIS STUFF AND IF THEY ARE NOT HOW DO WE GET THAT OUT THERE MORE CONSISTENTLY? WE SEEN TODAY IN A FEW TIMES THE FIDELITY INVENTORY ASSESSMENT. I'D BE INTRIGUED TO LEARN ABOUT WHAT THAT MEANS.

WHAT IS THAT THAT YOU'RE LOOKING AT WHAT THIS BROAD FRAMEWORK THAT WE ARE UTILIZING. WHAT ARE EXPECTING OUR SCHOOLS TO ACCOMPLISH.

SO JUST WONDERING WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE AND THAT MIGHT BE HELPFUL TO UNDERSTAND HOW THAT FITS INTO 10.1 AS WELL. IT SOUNDS LIKE THAT'S WHAT YOU ARE USING TO DETERMINE FIDELITY

WITH HAVING THOSE DISTRICT TEAMS. >> ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FROM

ANYONE? >> IN MY SCHOOL WE HAVE A POLICY FOR SEXUAL ASSAULT.

DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S A POLICY ACROSS THE DISTRICT. ASK THE REPORTING OF HARASSMENT BY LAW THERE ARE COMPONENTS OF IT THAT ARE FORMAL AND INFORMAL.

ASK WHEN WE ARE WORKING WITH FAMILIES THOSE AREN'T ALWAYS DOCUMENTED IN THE SYSTEM.

IF A PARENT WAS TO COME TO US AND REPORT HARASSMENT IT'S BEING INVESTIGATED AND THAT DOCUMENT IS FORMAL BUT IT'S DIFFERENT THAN I THOUGHT WHAT IS BEING DISCUSSED TONIGHT.

[01:30:09]

WE HAVE A COORDINATOR WHO GETS INVOLVED WITH THAT SO EVERY TIME THERE IS A SEXUAL HARASSMENT ARE TITLE IX COORDINATOR IS NOTIFIED OF THAT AND I BELIEVE THE SPECIFIC ACTIONS THAT ARE TAKEN TO RESPOND TO THE. INVESTIGATIONS, REPORTS AND

TIMELINE. >> AM NOT HEARING ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR REQUEST FOR CLARIFICATION. NOW THE BOARD WILL AGAIN ENTERTAIN A MOTION TO ACCEPT AND APPROVE THE MONITORING REPORT AS PRESENTED WHICH IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE EXCEPTIONS THAT ARE NOTED IN THE PRESENTATION TONIGHT IN THE WRITTEN REPORT.

>> SO MOVED "THE SECOND >> SECOND. >> WE HAVE A MOOT EMOTION AND

A SECOND. ANY FURTHER DESCRIPTION? >> I APPRECIATE THE DECLINE THAT WE ARE SEEING IN THE OVERALL DISCIPLINARY EXCLUSION. IT'S A LOT OF WORK THAT'S GOING ON AND IT'S A GREAT WAY TO SEE THAT COMPONENT. I THINK THROUGH THE QUESTIONS WE HEARD TONIGHT SOME FOCUS AROUND HOW WE DEAL WITH REPORTING AT THE SCHOOL LEVEL IN REGARDS TO SOME OF THESE INCIDENTS THAT WE MIGHT SEE TO BE ABLE TO ENSURE THAT THERE IS A RESPONSE AND THAT SEEMS TO BE SOMETHING THAT'S BUILT-IN. SOMETHING THAT WE DID NOT TALK ABOUT WAS FROM LAST YEAR FROM THE STUDY SESSION THAT WE HAD THAT IN WHICH IS ACTUALLY AROUND AN ISSUE OF CREATING AND WHETHER THAT ALONG OE- 10. IT'S A CONVERSATION WE HELD THAT AS A STUDY SESSION COMES UP IT'S SOMETHING TO BE THINKING ABOUT IN WHICH TO PUT THEM. ON FEBRUARY 5 WE HAVE THE FIRST POLICY MEETING.

IT IS CAPTURED IN THE OVERVIEW FOR THE STUDY SESSION AND THERE WILL BE AN EMPHASIS ON GRADING FOR THAT. I PROBABLY WILL COME UP AGAIN WHEN GRADES COME OUT.

ANY OTHER COMMENTS? OUR DISCUSSIONS? >> I HAVE ONE.

I THINK IT WILL BE WHEN I LOOK AT THIS RHETORICAL QUESTION I WONDER IF THE POLICY LANGUAGE THAT WE HAVE REALLY CAPTURES THE VALUES THAT THE STUDENTS HAVE WHAT THEY WANT IN THE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT. I THINK ABOUT WHAT WE HAVE WE TALK ABOUT SAFETY AND BELONGING. NO IT'S A FEELING OF STRESS AND TRYING TO KEEP THEIR HEAD ABOVE WATER AT TIMES. I DON'T THINK IT'S CAPTURED IN WHAT WE ARE MONITORING.

I ALSO NOTE THAT THE POLICY LANGUAGE IS CAPTURING THAT AS WELL.

THINK YOU CAN HELP LEAD US THROUGH WHAT THOSE VALUES ARE AND THAT STUDENTS WANT TO SEE THIS POLICY LANGUAGE. WHEN I LOOK AT IT FEELS LIKE TOP DOWN ALMOST.

[01:35:16]

ANY OTHER COMMENTS?>> WHAT'S MISSING IS THE INTRODUCTORY PARAGRAPH OF WHY THIS EXISTS WHICH THEREFORE THEM THOSE POLICIES SORT OF STATE THE PURPOSE AS TO WHY IT'S HERE.

I THINK IT'S EASIER TO HAVE THOSE FIT WHERE THEY NEED TO BE.

THAT'S JUST ANOTHER PIECE I SEE THAT THAT IS ADDED. >> THE REPORT IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE EXCEPTIONS THAT ARE NOTED. DOESN'T SAY FAVORABLY SIGNIFIED BY VOTING AYE. ANY OPPOSED? HEARING NONE THE MOTION CARRIE . IT IS 8:40 PM. THE NEXT ITEM ON THE AGENDA IS A SERIES OF BOARD SUMMARIES FOR MONITORING REPORTS.E ARE GOING TO TAKE A FIVE MINUTE RECESS.THE NEXT ITEM ON THE AGE THE BOARD SUMMARY FOR MONITORING REPORT FOR OE- 12.

THIS IS FOR THE FACILITIES. I'D LIKE TO THINK THE DIRECTOR FOR WRITING THE BOARD SUMMARY FOR 12 BASED ON FEEDBACK THAT WAS ABLE TO BE COLLECTED. ARE THERE ANY FURTHER COMMENTS ON ANY BOARD SUMMARIES IN THE PACKET FOR TONIGHT? WE HAVE BOARD SUMMARIES FOR 12, 13 AND 14. ANY ADDITIONAL COMMENT FROM ANYONE ON THE SUMMARY FOR 12? IF NOT I WILL ENTERTAIN A MOTION TO APPROVE FOR OE- 12 IS PRESENTED

>> BEFORE YOU DO THAT I JUST LIKE TO CALL THIS OUT. I THINK IT'S SOMEWHAT IMPORTANT TO KNOW SORT OF WHAT THE SUMMARY SAYS. I KNOW EVERYONE HAD A CHANCE TO READ IT BUT IF YOU DON'T HAVE IT IN FRONT OF YOU.ART OF IT JUST CALLS ON A RIGHT OF THINGS. THE BOARD IS FIRED THE SUPERINTENDENT COMPLIANT AND RECOGNIZES THE WORK TO ENSURE HIGH QUALITY AND EXCELLENT FACILITIES THAT MEET THE NEEDS OF STUDENTS IN OUR COMMUNITIES AS WELL AS THE SUPPORT REQUIRED TO SUPPORT THOSE EFFORTS BONDS AND LEVY FUNDING. THE BOARD APPRECIATES THE ADDITIONAL FOCUS ON SUSTAINABILITY AND MAINTENANCE. IN EFFORTS TO ADDRESS COMMUNITY DEMANDS FOR SPACE WILL ENABLE.

SOME OF THE DIRECTION THAT WAS PROVIDED WAS FOR THE POLICY REVIEW AND CONSIDERING UPDATE POLICIES TO UPDATE SECURITY IN REGARDS TO OUR BUILDING AND FACILITIES AND FOR EVIDENCE CONSIDER PROVIDING WEB LINKS FOR DATA THAT'S AVAILABLE ONLINE FOR SPECIFIC DATA.

THIS IS AS I WAS REVIEWING IT BUT THE PART THAT I FELT LIKE WE LOST IN SOME OF THE POLICIES PIECE WHICH IS ABOUT THE ACTUAL PHYSICAL SECURITY WITHIN OUR BUILDING AND THAT'S A BIG COMPONENT THAT WE AND I DON'T FEEL LIKE I GOT CALLED OUT. I WOULD INCLUDE THAT AS A PIECE

OF THE DIRECTION. >> I WILL ENTERTAIN A MOTION TO APPROVE THE BOARD SUMMARY

FOR 12. >> SO MOVED. >> SECOND.

>> ANY ADDITIONAL DISCUSSION? I THINK WE AS A BOARD DO YOU NEED TO THINK ABOUT HOW WE DO

[01:40:08]

>> ANY OPPOSED?HEARING NONE THE MOTION CARRIES. ASK THE NEXT ITEM IT ON THE AGENDA IS THE BOARD SUMMARY REPORT FOR OPERATION AT EXPECTATION 13 WHICH IS TECHNOLOGY. THIS IS ALSO ON THE CONSENT AGENDA AND FOR THE PAST MEETING IT WAS APPROVED BY THE BOARD. THIS IS A VERY CONCISE SUMMARY WHICH AGAIN IS REFLECTED ON THE CONSENT AGENDA THERE IS NO COMMENT AROUND IT. WE APPROVED IT AS PRESENTED.

ANY ADDITIONAL COMMENT FROM ANYONE ON THE BOARD ON THE SUMMARY?

>> I WANTED TO CALL SOME THINGS OUT. FIRST I REALLY WANTED TO EXPRESS MY THANKS FOR THE DATE ABOUT DASHBOARDS. I KNOW HOW MUCH WORK IT IS TO PULL US TOGETHER AND I'M VERY APPRECIATIVE OF THE WORK. I KNOW THE DATE A PERSON YOU JUST WANT SOMEBODY TO SAY YES I DID THAT. PEOPLE ARE LOOKING AT IT AND I'M VERY APPRECIATIVE. DOCTOR HOMAN IS ALSO APPRECIATIVE BECAUSE IT ALLOWS HIM TO SHINS THAT WE WOULD OTHERWISE GO TO HIM. THAT'S REALLY FANTASTIC WORK.

IN REGARDS TO FILTERING THIS IS AN AREA THAT STUDENT DEVICES ESPECIALLY SECONDARY WHEN THEY COME HOME. I HEARD A LOT OF PARENTS COMMENTS AROUND WHAT IS BEING FILTERED. I THINK MOST OF THE INAPPROPRIATE STUFF IS GETTING FILTERED OUT SO I'M GLAD THIS IS IN COMPLIANCE. THE BIGGER CHALLENGES AIMS, HAVING YOUTUBE ACCESS EVEN IF IT'S NOT AN APPROPRIATE BUT JUST NOT CONDUCIVE TO LEARNING HUNDRED PERCENT OF THE TIME. I KNOW THAT THIS IS A CHALLENGE NATIONWIDE SO I HATE TO BRING PROBLEMS WITH SOLUTIONS. IT'S NOT A PROBLEM MORE OF A CHALLENGE.

WE SEE SOME ADDITIONAL THOUGHT IN THAT AREA. WE HELP ALLEVIATE SOME OF THOSE

DISTRACTIONS. >> I JUST HAVE ONE THING TO ADD TO THE SUMMARY WHICH IS BASED ON LEGISLATIVE PRIORITIES THAT WE'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT ALSO WITH THE LEGISLATIVE THINKING. IN THIS TECHNOLOGY WE HAVE NOTHING ABOUT ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE. I'M NOT SURE IF IT GOES HERE IN THE INSTRUCTIONAL PROGRAM.

IN OTHER REGARD I'VE HAD CONVERSATIONS WITH OUR DEPUTY SUPERINTENDENT AND THE INSTRUCTIONAL PROGRAM AND I DON'T DISAGREE WITH THAT BUT I WANTED TO MAKE SURE IT GOT BROUGHT UP THAT IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE ARE THINKING ABOUT AND PERHAPS WANT TO BUILD THAT INTO OUR POLICIES AS WELL TO MAKE THAT CLEAR IN THAT SETTING. IT'S JUST SOMETHING I WOULD ADD INTO THE SUMMARY AT SOME POINT WHETHER IT'S HERE OR SOMEWHERE ELSE.

IT'S SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT. >> ARE YOU PROPOSING TO AMEND? >> I WOULD LIKE TO AMEND THE SUMMARY TO INCLUDE THAT WE DEVELOP A SET POLICY WITHIN ONE OF THE OE'S IN REGARDS TO

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND WHAT OUR POLICY IS WITH THAT. >> I BELIEVE I HAVE THREE AMENDMENTS. ONE IS DATA THAT DASHBOARD. TWO IS THE QUESTION ABOUT

[01:45:02]

MAYBE NOT HERE BUT SOMEWHERE ELSE.>> AND THERE WAS ONE MORE AS I WAS REVIEWING LESTER'S MONITORING REPORT TO SEE THOSE DIFFERENT PIECES AND I DID HAVE A CONVERSATION WITH DOCTOR HOMAN ABOUT THESE SPECIFICS. CYBER BULLYING IS DEFINITELY ONE THAT WAS BROUGHT UP IN THINKING ABOUT THE CONVERSATION TONIGHT I THINK THAT MIGHT BE THE PLACE THAT IT GOES SO AS YOU HAVE THAT DISCUSSION AND SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT THOSE WITH THE TWO THAT WE HAD TALKED ABOUT LAST TIME TO INCLUDE WE DON'T CURRENTLY HAVE THEM.

IT'S MORE JUST NOT WANTING TO LOSE THAT WORK AND HAVE THE CONVERSATION WHETHER IT GO

SOMEWHERE IS TO BE DECIDED. >> I WILL ADD CYBER BULLYING FOR CONSIDERATION INTO THE

OVERALL POLICY FOR MONITORING. >> IN A TOSS WHEN WEREN'T YOU AND IT'S ALONG THE DATA DASHBOARD LINE. MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT IT'S ON THE WORK PLAN AND THAT IS ACTUALLY AN EXTERNAL DASHBOARD FOR THE COMMUNITY TO BE ABLE TO ACCESS AND SEE.

SO THAT THEY ALSO HAVE THAT CAPACITY.I KNOW THAT'S ON THE WORK PLAN THAT WOULD BE THE

DIFFERENT AMENDMENTS I WOULD PROPOSE FORWARD. >> I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS POSSIBLE BUT I KNOW THAT YOU MENTIONED SOMETHING ABOUT NAI ADDITION.

AT LIKE TO SEE THAT ADDITION ADDED TO NOT ONLY STUDENTS BUT USED BY TEACHERS.

I HAD A FEW FRIENDS THAT RECEIVED AI FEEDBACK. >> HERE'S WHAT I PROPOSE WE D . DOCTOR HOMAN COULD SUMMARIZE WHAT HE HEARD TO BE AREAS AMENDMENTS AND THE SUMMARY AND WE CAN ENTERTAIN A MOTION TO AMEND THE SUMMARY REPORT.

>> I HAVE SIX AREAS THAT I WILL ADD TO THE SUMMARY.IF THE BOARD APPROVES THE SUMMARY TONIGHT THESE WILL BE ADDED TO IT. ONE IS ACCOMMODATION ABOUT THE DATA DASHBOARD AND THE BOARD HAS ACCESS TO IT. SECOND IS JUST QUESTIONS ABOUT FILTERING AND ENSURING THAT WE ARE DOING EVERYTHING WE CAN TO AVOID DISTRACTIONS TO LEARNING EVEN THOUGH THE CONTENT IS NOT AN APPROPRIATE, THINGS SUCH AS GAMES AND THE WORK AROUND WITH YOUTUBE. ADD AI CONSIDERATIONS FOR STUDENTS AND ADULTS.

CONSIDER AREAS SUCH AS CYBER BULLYING AND DIGITAL CITIZENSHIP AS PART OF OUR POLICY STRUCTURE AND THEN JUST A QUESTION ABOUT COMMUNITY DATA DASHBOARD AS PART OF COMPLIANCE

AS WELL.>> DO I HEAR A MOTION TO APPROVE THE REPORT WITH THOSE ITEMS INCLUDED AS

ACCOMMODATIONS AND DIRECTION? >> SO MOVED. >> SECOND.

>> ANY ADDITIONAL DISCUSSION? >> I APPRECIATE THE WORK THAT GOES INTO TECHNOLOGY AND A CALLOUT FOR THE EFFORTS AND DATA WITH ACCESS TO THAT IS PRETTY IMPRESSIVE ALONG WITH THE WORK IN WHICH TO CREATE A VERY SAFE AND SECURE ENVIRONMENT.

I THINK IT'S A VERY IMPORTANT THING AND AS WE DO MORE WE APPRECIATE THOSE EFFORTS THAT

ARE GOING INTO IT THE UPDATE THAT WE SELL. >> DOES IN FAVOR SIGNIFY BY SAYING AYE. ANY OPPOSED? HEARING NONE THE MOTION

CARRIES.>> THE NEXT ITEM ON THE AGENDA IS THE BOARD SUMMARY FOR OE- 14 WHICH IS THE

[01:50:18]

THE REPORT WAS PRESENTED AND APPROVED BY THE BOARD AT THE OCTOBER 2 BOARD MEETING.

THE PRESIDENT PREPARED THE MONITORING REPORT FOR THIS EVENING.

ANY FURTHER COMMENT FROM THE BOARD ON THE BOARD SUMMARY IN THE PACKET?

>> THERE WAS DATA PRESENTED AS PART OF THE CONVERSATION AND WE AGREED THAT IT WAS A BIG STEP FORWARD. DEFINITELY RECOGNITION THAT THERE WAS MORE WORK THAT NEEDS TO BE DONE IN THAT AREA TO FILL THE GAPS. I'M ALSO CURIOUS SINCE WE HAVE THAT CONVERSATION. I DON'T THINK ENROLLMENT FORM WAS GONNA BE MOVING.

AND SO I'M SPECIFICALLY CURIOUS WHETHER THERE OPPORTUNITIES FOR DIFFERENT DATA AND AFFECT

CHANGE WE HAVE THAT GOING FORWARD. >> ANY OTHER DISCUSSION HEARING NONE WE WILL PROCEED TO A VOTE ON THE MOTION. I WILL ENTERTAIN A MOTION TO

APPROVE THE BOARD SUMMARY FOR OE- 14. >> SO MOVED.

>> SECOND. >> AN ADDITIONAL DISCUSSION? HEARING NONE WE WILL VOTE.

THOSE IN FAVOR SAY SIGNIFY BY VOTING AYE. ANY OPPOSED?

HEARING ON THE MOTION CARRIES. >> THE FINAL STEP FOR MONITORING THAT MY TEAM AND I ARE ENGAGED IN IS THE DISTRICTS RESPONSE TO THE BOARD SUMMARY. WE ARE CREATING A TO DO LIST.

THE BOARD SUMMARY HAS ACTIONABLE ITEMS. WE ARE ACTUALLY WRITING UP WHAT THE TASK IS FOR EACH MONITORING REPORT. WE HAVE A FORMAT NOW AND WE HAVE ALMOST COMPLETED THE RESULTS. WHAT WE WILL DO IS TRANSMIT THE OF THE BOARD REPRIEVES AND WE WILL ATTACH IT INTO BOARD DOCS WITH THE BOARD SUMMARY.

THAT ESSENTIALLY ALLOWS US TO BE VERY CLEAR AS TO WHAT THE SPECIFIC ACTION ITEMS ARE THAT WE ARE TAKING. I WILL ALSO SAY GOING TO THIS PROCESS IT GIVES US AN INSIGHT INTO WHAT'S HELPFUL AND WHAT IS AMBIGUOUS. IF THE BOARD WANTS US TO CONSIDER SOMETHING LIKE TRULY TAKE THE TIME AND THINK ABOUT THIS AND TALK WITH PEOPLE AND THERE'S NO REAL ACTION ITEM TO CONSIDER THEN YOU THE WORD CONSIDER.

IF THE BOARD HAS A SPECIFIC DIRECTION CREATE A NEW INDICATOR FOR 14.5.

THE REALLY EXPLICIT ABOUT WHAT IS THAT THAT THE BOARD IS SUMMARIZING FOR THE CONVERSATION. IT'S WHAT THE BOARD WANTS AS YOU WRITE YOUR SUMMARIES.

[01:55:40]

>> IT'S THE SUPERINTENDENTS PLACE TO PUT FORWARD AND SO WE ARE TRYING TO WALK THAT LINE.

THAT'S MY QUESTION ON THAT PIECE. IT'S THE RESPONSIBILITY THAT

LIES IN THE SUPERINTENDENTS SKILLS FOR EDUCATORS. >> INDICATORS ARE TRULY PROVIDING THE BOARD WITH THE ABILITY TO EVALUATE POLICY I WOULD RATHER THE BOARD SAY PLEASE BRING FORWARD ADDITIONAL INDICATORS IN THIS AREA FOR THIS POLICY.

>> THAT WAS THE LAST ITEM IN THE NONCONSENT AGENDA FOR CONSIDERATION TONIGHT.

[G. Superintendent Report]

TONIGHT I HAVE A SINGLE TOPIC THAT I WANT TO SHARE WITH THE BOARD.

IT'S ABOUT THE FIRST ANNUAL VIRTUAL SUMMIT THAT WAS HELD THIS WEEKEND.

WHEN BAKER AND HIS TEAM ARE HERE THEY REFERENCE TO. WE APPRECIATE DIRECTOR CON THREE AND I'VE ASKED HER TO PRESENTATION THE PRESENTATION TONIGHT AS WELL.

I JUST WANTED TO SHARE SOME OF WHAT WE DID. A COUPLE QUOTES IN HERE THAT THE EXECUTIVE CABINET HAS TALKED ABOUT IS THAT IT REALLY IS A NEW WAY OF THINKING ABOUT PREPARING STUDENTS FOR THEIR FUTURE. THIS QUOTE DOESN'T VERY JUSTICE. IT IS TO PREPARE STUDENTS FOR JOBS AND WAYS OF LIFE THAT DO NOT EXIST EASY KNOWLEDGE THAT HAS NOT BEEN DISCOVERED CREATING IDEAS AND SOLUTIONS FOR PROBLEMS THAT HAVE NOT YET BEEN IDENTIFIED AND TECHNOLOGIES THAT HAVE NOT BEEN INVENTED. YOU THINK ABOUT THE WORLD THAT WE PREPARE STUDENTS FOR.

IT'S REALLY ABOUT THINKING BIG ABOUT THE WORK THAT WE ARE DOING IS A DISTRICT.

BEING CREATIVE AND INNOVATIVE KNOWING THAT WE NEED TO PREPARE STUDENTS FOR A FUTURE THAT REALLY HAS DIFFERENT ELEMENTS TO IT. THE VIRTUAL SUMMIT IS VERY SUCCESSFUL. IT WAS HELD THIS SATURDAY FROM 9:00 TO 1:00 AND STAFF IS OFFERED CLOCK HOURS SO WE MAINTAIN CERTIFICATIONS TO ACQUIRE THE CLOCK HOURS OVERTIME. THE TEAM DID THE WRECK WITH WORK TO OFFER CLOCK HOURS FOR THIS. YOU KNOW IT WAS JEFF YOU MAY HAVE HEARD OF HIM BEFORE BUT HE'S A FORMER TEACHER AND EDUCATOR. HE'S PROBABLY A TECHNOLOGIST AS WELL. TO HEAR HIM SPEAK AND TALK ABOUT THE HISTORY OF INNOVATION AND EDUCATION THE SHAPE AND FORM THE WORLD. AND SO HE GIVES KEYNOTE AND A DID A NICE JOB AROUND THAT. WE HAD MULTIPLE SESSIONS THAT WERE OFFERED TO STAFF.

DIRECTOR GUTHRIE AND I STARTED WITH JEFF AND HIS KEYNOTE THAT WENT TO HIS HOUR AND 45 MINUTE SESSION ON GENERATIVE AI. YOU CAN SEE HERE AN ARRAY OF PRESENTERS FROM DISTRICT STAFF PRESENTING ON VARIOUS TOPICS RELATED TO TECHNOLOGY TO BRING IN EXPERTS FROM THE FIELD.

[02:00:42]

ANOTHER COMMENT THAT WE KEEP COMING BACK TO THIS ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE WILL REPLACE HUMANS BUT HUMANS WITH AI WILL REPLACE HUMANS WITHOUT AI AND IT'S THE IDEA THAT AI HAS A POWER TO IT TO PROVIDE INFORMATION AND RESOURCES CONSIDERATION.

WHETHER WE AGREE WITH THIS OR NOT I DON'T KNOW. IT'S THE IDEA THAT WE NEED TO BE THOUGHTFUL EQUIPPING OUR STUDENTS TO BE FUTURE READY STUDENTS THAT UNDERSTAND HOW TO CLEAN AND WELL THE PURPOSE. ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IS JUST PULLING FROM WITH THE DEVICE INFORMATION AND SO WE HAVE TO BE EQUIPPED TO BE ABLE TO RESPOND TO THAT.

AT ONE POINT I SAW OVER 82 INDIVIDUALS ON THE SCREEN. 75 OF THEM REPORTED WHO THEY WERE. I HAVE ASKED DIRECTOR GUNDRY JUST PROVIDING HER COMMENTS

ABOUT WHAT SHE APPRECIATED ABOUT IT. >> I SIGN IN LIKE THAT SPECIFICALLY BECAUSE THEY WANT TO TEST THE OTHER OPTION. IT WAS A REALLY WONDERFUL EVENT. IT'S VERY MUCH APPRECIATED THAT THAT HELPED ME WITH BALANCING THINGS. I THINK IT WAS REALLY FUN TO WATCH THE TRANSFORMATION OVER THE COURSE OVER THE SEVERAL HOURS. THERE WERE A LOT OF SKEPTICAL

COMMENTS. LOT OF TEACHERS KEPT SAYING I DON'T KNOW. >> THEY ARE VERY RESPECTABLE BUT DEFINITELY PRACTICAL. A LOT OF PEOPLE THERE ARE COMPLETELY NEW TO AI AND WE HAVE ANY ESTATE. JEFF STARTED WITH JUST SOME FUN ACTIVITIES.

WRITING SONGS, CREATING MEAL PLANS AND WE WERE WORKING ON MEAL PLANS AND TWEAKING THE MEAL PLANS. THE MOMENT THAT NEVER FAILS PUT A SMILEY FACE.

YOU CAN TWEAK THIS MEAL PLAN TO YOUR PREFERENCE AND YOU CAN TWEAK WHAT YOU'RE DOING IN YOUR CLASSROOMS AND USE THIS TOOL FOR YOUR STUDENTS. EVERYBODY ELSE ON THE SPECTRUM FROM PREKINDERGARTEN TO SEVENTH GRADE. TARGETED THROUGH YOUR PRE-K

[02:05:56]

SIX GREAT RATES AT A THIRD-GRADE LEVEL AND TEACHERS CAN GENERATE FOR HIM NEW READING PRACTICES AND PASSAGES TO PRACTICE ON EVERY SINGLE DAY.

THAT'S A REALLY FUN MOMENT. I WOULD SAY THAT'S THE HIGHLIGHT OF MY YEAR.

WE SEE THAT TECHNOLOGY REALLY COME TO LIFE IN THAT SESSION. LOTS OF OTHER GREAT MOMENTS BUT THAT WAS JUST REALLY EXCITING TO SEE. RELEASING THE TRANSFORMATION OVER THE COURSE OF AN HOUR AND. THAT'S WHAT GETS ME SO EXCITED ABOUT GENERATIVE AI.

IT'S JUST THE BENEFITS WANT TO START PLAYING AROUND WITH THE IT BECOMES CLEAR REALLY QUICKLY. AND LIMITATIONS TWO. THERE WAS A MOMENT LONGER TRYING TO WRITE A SONG TEACHER WAS STRUGGLING AND SHE WAS TRYING TO COMPOSE A SONG.

I WILL WRITE YOU A SONG IF YOU CHANGE IT. IT'S NOT GOING TO REPLACE US.

IT'S DEFINITELY A VERY VALUABLE TOOL FOR USE IN CONJUNCTION WITH HUMAN RACE.

THANK YOU FOR INVITING ME I HAD A LOT OF FUN. I HOPE TO SEE IT CONTINUE.

>> I THINK WHAT IT HIGHLIGHTED FOR ME WAS EQUIPPING PEOPLE WITH ADDITIONAL TOOLS.

GENERATIVE AI WILL REPLACE THE TEACHER BECAUSE THE TEACHER UNDERSTANDS EMPATHY.

THEY UNDERSTAND THE SIZE OF THE STRUGGLE. THEY DEVELOP THE LESSON PLANS AND I ASKED HIM TO WRITE THE COOL. I GAVE A VERY SPECIFIC COMPONENT AND I SAID RIGHT 10 INTERVENTION STRATEGIES. WERE THEY PERFECT? NO BUT IT'S AN IDEA THAT I COULD BE A THOUGHT PARTNER. IDEAS AS PROFESSIONALS.

WE CAN CONSIDER AND USE THIS AND SO THAT'S PRETTY INTERESTING.

IT'S A NEW HORIZON AND I'M EXCITED FOR WHAT IT CAN BRING. HERE ARE SOME COMMENTS DIRECTLY FROM OUR STAFF AROUND US. THERE ARE SOME TAKEAWAYS FROM THE TIME TOGETHER WITH THE RESOURCES THAT WE HAVE AVAILABLE IN OUR TEACHINGS FOR STUDENTS.

INNOVATION CAN BE SCARY BUT ALSO BENEFICIAL AND FLEXIBLE. IT'S A TOTALLY DIFFERENT OUTLOOK ON AI, CHECK GTP AND PERSONAL LIFE THE LISTEN POWERFUL STATEMENTS RIGHT THERE. WE CAN BUILD SUPPORT IN EXISTING ASSIGNMENTS WITH DIFFERENTIATION AND I LOVE THE DICTATION TO TRANSLATION FEATURE WHICH IS GREAT FOR ML KIDS. I DON'T KNOW EXACTLY WHICH SESSION THAT WAS FROM BUT IT'S ONE OF THE BEST THEY FEEL WITH BETTER ORGANIZATIONS AND LEARNING MORE AND WAS REALLY

[02:10:05]

HELPFUL FOR ME AND MY STUDENTS. >> I JUST WANT TO THANK OUR TEAM THAT PUT THIS TOGETHER.

IT WAS 75 TO 80 PEOPLE BUT I GUARANTEE IT 75 TO 80 PEOPLE THAT WALKED AWAY BETTER EQUIPPED TO LEAD OR USE THIS FOR THE BETTERMENT OF STUDENTS. HE MET THESE FOLKS AT THE LAST BOARD MEETING AND THE TEAM LED BY THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR AND TECHNOLOGY SERVICES BECAUSE THEY REALLY APPRECIATE EVERYTHING NEEDEDTO PUT THIS TOGETHER FOR STAFF .

THAT'S MY REPORT. >> MAY I ASK ONE QUESTION? WERE ANY OF THESE WORKSHOPS

VIDEOTAPED? >> THEY WERE RECORDED. WITH THE KEYNOTE BEING TWO

MINUTES LATE. >> WILL THEY BE POSTED SOMEWHERE SO PEOPLE COULD HAVE

ACCESS? >> THEY ARE POSTED ON AN INTERNAL PORTAL SO YOU CAN SEE

HOW IT'S BEING ACCESSED. >> I THINK IT'S INTERESTING TO POTENTIALLY HAVE OTHER SCHOOL

DISTRICTS THAT ARE ALSO INTERESTED IN THIS INFORMATION. >> WE THINK ABOUT HOW THERE COULD BE VULNERABILITY FOR STAFF IN THIS JUST IN THE CHAT. WE WILL LOOK AT IT AND SEE IF

THIS IS THE RIGHT RESOURCE. >> THE NEXT ITEM ON THE AGENDA IS PUBLIC AND COMMUNITY

[H. Public and Community Affairs]

WE CAN GIVE HER BOOTS ON THE GROUND POINTER AND IT'S SOMETHING THAT SHE'S VERY MUCH COMMITTED TO. I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING WHAT YOU COME UP WITH.

>> IS ANYONE ELSE HAVE ANY OTHER COMMUNITY FAIRS UPDATES? >> THE NEXT ITEM ON THE AGENDA

IS. >> I JUST WANTED TO SHUT OUT THE SLICK VOLLEYBALL TEAM FOR WINNING KINKO'S AND THEIR RESPECTIVE DIVISIONS. AND THEN ALSO DECCA FOR HOSTING

THE EVENT OF 250+ PEOPLE AND CONNECTING STUDENTS. >> THANK YOU.

[I. Closing Items]

>> NEXT ITEM ON THE AGENDA THE SCHOOL BUSINESS. WE CONDUCTED SCHOOL BUSINESSES ON OCTOBER 224TH. IS THERE ANYONE HERE THAT WOULD LIKE TO PROVIDE A BRIEF

SUMMARY? >> I DO WANT TO RECOGNIZE IN THE BOARD PACKET THERE IS A WRITTEN SUMMARY UNDO PROCESS WHICH IS ONE OF OUR STOCK COMMUNICATIONS DEPARTMENT WHICH WILL BE PARTICIPATING IN OUR SCHOOL VISITS AND WILL DO A WRITE UP BASED ON THE EXPERIENCE AND OBSERVATIONS AND AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE WRITE UP THERE IS ALSO PICTURES THAT GO WITH IT. THEY WERE ACTUALLY REALLY GOOD PICTURES.

THE FIRST STOP ON THE VISIT WAS AT EINSTEIN ELEMENTARY WHERE THE TEAM MET WITH PRINCIPALLY MY AND THE ASSOCIATE PRINCIPAL ILLINOIS.IT WAS A LOOK AT THE WHOLE SITE AND THE CYCLE OF TERM ONE AND TIER 2 INSTRUCTION FOR HOW THEY ARE ADDRESSING LITERACY INSTRUCTION IN THE SCHOOLS. IT'S THE DATA THAT THEY ARE CONDUCTING IN THE COLLABORATION IN THIS STUDY SESSION TONIGHT. THERE ARE VARIOUS SCHEDULING COMPONENTS THAT ARE IN PLACE TO ENSURE THAT STUDENTS HAVE ACCESS TO THE ACCESS AND SERVICES THAT THEY NEED.

I CONSISTENTLY HEARD FROM BOTH STAFF THAT WAS THERE AND BOARD MEMBERS THAT DID A GREAT JOB OF PUTTING INTO EVIDENCE WILL CYCLE OF LEARNING FOR STUDENTS AND HOW SCHOOLS ARE

[02:15:06]

THE SECOND STOP IS ROSE HILL MIDDLE SCHOOL WHERE THE BOARD ENGAGED WITH PRINCIPAL QUARTER AROUND CO-TEACHING AND PUSHING SERVICES WITH THEIR WORK AROUND TO UNDERSTAND HOW IT'S EFFECTIVE AND THE BARRIERS. IT'S NOT ALLOWING THEM THE SUCCESS THAT THEY WOULD NEED.

WE APPRECIATE THE PRINCIPLES AND SCHOOLS OPENING UP THEIR SCHOOLS ANDOPENING US IN .

I KNOW THEY APPRECIATED IT WITH THE BOARD AND I KNOW THE BOARD APPRECIATES THE PRINCIPLES AND SCHOOLS OPENING THEIR DOORS SO THEY CAN BE THERE. ON TUESDAY THE NEXT VISIT IS

LIKE WASHINGTON HIGH SCHOOL. >> THE NEXT ITEM ON THE AGENDA IS THE BOARD COMMITTEE UPDATE.

IF ANYONE HAS ANY SUBSTANCE UPDATES TO PROVIDE. HUGS I'D LIKE TO SAY THE STRATEGIC PLAN FOR THE STUDENTS MET FOR THE FIRST TIME. IT'S THINKING ABOUT WHAT TODAY'S TECHNOLOGY IS WHICH SORT OF ALIGNED WELL WITH SOME OF THE CONVERSATION THAT TOOK PLACE IN THAT ROOM. WHAT IS THE VISION FOR OUR STUDENTS GOING OUT? I THINK THE WIDE RANGE OF PARTICIPANTS IN THAT COMMITTEE WHO ARE ENGAGED WITH THAT AS WELL AS A BROAD RANGE OF PARENTS AND TEACHERS. I THINK IT CREATES A WHOLE INTERESTING CONVERSATION TO REDUCE REASONING AROUND THAT STUDENT EXPECTATION GOING FORWARD. WE LOOK FORWARD TO THE WORK THERE SO THERE SHOULD BE GOOD

STUFF COMING OUT OF THAT. >> I MENTIONED THERE WAS A MEETING OF ELEMENTARY OPTION COMMITTEE. OUR NEXT MEETINGS CAN BE WITH TWO MEETINGS ON SEPARATE DAYS.

WHAT A HUGE NUMBER OF TEACHERS. THE THINGS THAT WE WORKED ON COMING UP WHICH YOUR DEFINITIONS. EARLIER TODAY AROUND LITERACY IN TERMS LIKE SMALL GROUP INSTRUCTION WE SPENT SOME TIME WITH THE CURRENT ELEMENTARY AND SCARBOROUGH.

IDENTIFICATION GETS INCREASINGLY AUTOMATIC AND IT'S JUST THE TOP OF THE ROPE.

>> IT WAS A REALLY NICE FOLLOW-UP TO WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT WITH ROBIN WITNESSING

[02:20:03]

WE SPENT A LITTLE BIT TIME ON ASSESSMENTS AS WELL AND FINISHED UP THE DAY JUST THIS LAST MONTH. BASICALLY THEY SAY WE ARE REVISING THE LEARNING STANDARD . I WOULD SAY THAT MY TAKEAWAYS HAVE A STRONG EMPHASIS ON SIGNS OF READING INTO THOSE STANDARDS. THAT WAS AND A HALF DAY AND WE

ARE MEETING AND AT THE END OF THE MONTH. >> .
