Thank you so much. And good evening everyone and welcome to this is day 11 for us of being in person at the school sites. And there's just a lot of joy and energy going around with having kids in person at school sites. And before I start, just want to definitely thank all the teachers and the staff and the administrators and parents for entrusting us in allowing us to educate their children in person. It's a real treat compared to what we were doing 18 months ago. Tonight what I'm going to do is I'm going to start out with just where we are with enrollment as of day 10, which was yesterday. Then what we're going to continue with is some information regarding to a dashboard update that we'd like to share with you. Then some COVID testing updates and also some FAQs so that we can remind our parents of how our parents and also our community about the contact tracing that we do and the notifications. Then also we're going to talk a little bit about vaccine mandates and then have a discussion as we go through the presentation. Please feel free board members to stop myself or Miss Kelly at any time to ask us questions. Okay, so let's go on to the next slide, please. So we are going to talk about enrollment. And so as we go through these slides, what you're going to see is 10 day count last year and the 10 day count of this school year. And remember our 10 day, our 10 day count was as of yesterday. And during that time of that 10 day count, that's when we determine how many students or are in each of the classrooms at each of the school sites within the Redwood City School district. And so here you see adelante. And you're going to see that out of a lot of our school sites there are less students than we had previously when we ended the school year in June. And I'll give you that total number. Yes, Alisa?"},{"start":379160,"end":385040,"speaker":"E","text":"Yeah. Just one question before we get going on this. Will these include the independent study?"},{"start":385040,"end":385480,"speaker":"I","text":"Yes."},{"start":385780,"end":397700,"speaker":"E","text":"Yes. So because they're slotted into a school site. So for example, if we look at the 581 that has in person and independent study. Independent study. Okay. Thank you, that's helpful."},{"start":397940,"end":713840,"speaker":"I","text":"And I broke it down last week accordingly by school at what grade levels children were being provided with independent study. But I didn't bring that back again this week. This is just 10 day 10 with those students included. All right, so this is Adelante Selby. Next slide please. We have Clifford. Here's Clifford. Clifford has a bit few more students than they had last year at this time. Next slide. Garfield. Garfield has a few more students, also Henry Ford, a few less. Hoover, also a few less. Kennedy, a few less students. Mit, there are several students less at 288 compared to last year at this time. North Star, a few less here. When we get to Orion and the Mandarin Immersion program, you will see the gray is the Orion alternative. This reddish brown color is the Mandarin Immersion program. And you will see that we are having less students. At Roosevelt, fewer students. At Roy Cloud there are fewer students, And at Taft there are fewer students. So when you look at these numbers, if you look at, if we go back to the last day we were here in June, the last day. Next slide please. I think there's one last day that we were here in June. And this is the 10 day count from 2021 to 2122. But at the last day of June, the number of students that we had at that time was 6596. So you will have, you will notice that it dwindled last school year and now we are at 6353. So in talking about why less students, in Talking to Superintendent McGee a few weeks back when she was meeting with the superintendents that were new to the county, she also alluded to the drop in student enrollment among all school districts within the red within the San Mateo county and that it has been declining for the last four to five years. Of course we've seen a decline, but as I have been informed by school sites, when they do the follow up of why students are not coming, many have the option not to live in the same community where they were working previously and took advantage of that. We have people that have moved up north, we have people that have moved out of the state entirely because of the ability to work remotely. And then we also have people that have left the Bay Area because of the cost of living. So our demographer also notices that as we progress through moving forward in the years to come, the school district will lose more students and seems that we may plateau at anywhere from 5,800 to 6,000 students. Moving forward. So this information is also going to be on our website. As you know, every time we have a board meeting, what is done is that the slide presentation is put on the website along with the recording of the meeting. So we'll have this information on our website so that parents can review it. Also, regarding the enrollment, any questions regarding enrollment before we start going into Covid response update? You go ahead, Elisa."},{"start":713840,"end":730720,"speaker":"E","text":"Oh, I was just going to say, I mean, one of the questions that came through the chat that I think I've asked about as well is, you know, we do we know how many left for neighboring private schools or our own charter schools? And I think it's on the margins. Correct?"},{"start":731120,"end":732000,"speaker":"I","text":"Right, right."},{"start":732400,"end":737360,"speaker":"E","text":"I think mostly it's people moving out of the area, but I don't know if we have exact numbers on that."},{"start":737360,"end":776430,"speaker":"I","text":"I mean, and what parents, they normally do not give us the information of moving to private schools. But what we could do is we can check when the records are asked for and the records that have been asked for from the district office, you will see that the majority of them are going outside of Redwood City and outside the state of California. So that's a good question. And let me see if I can get that response from our records department. That's one way of finding out."},{"start":776430,"end":788350,"speaker":"E","text":"Yeah, I mean, I know when I, you know, we've got the, some of the charter school numbers and it doesn't look like they're taking a lot of the students. You know, they sort of plateaued or if anything, they're losing students."},{"start":789550,"end":791990,"speaker":"I","text":"They're losing. They're losing students also."},{"start":792550,"end":848180,"speaker":"E","text":"Right. And then, you know, keep in mind, private schools, I don't believe we've added a lot of private schools, so they've got sort of the enrollment they have because I know in the past, and we've looked at it, you know, there are Redwood City students who do choose to go, you know, their parents have them go to private schools, but that's been going on for a long time. So. And I do know sometimes, you know, people who know they're going to send their, their kid to a private school will choose Redwood City over, say, living in Menlo park or Palo Alto because the housing prices are a little cheaper here anyway. But yeah, I mean, I think if you can find that out, that's useful to know because it does tell us something. But I think an answer to the question, I think it's on the margins. I don't think it's like huge numbers or anything. Yeah. All right."},{"start":848180,"end":857780,"speaker":"I","text":"All right. Now we're going to go into Covid response update and Ms. Kelly is going to start off with that presentation. Go ahead, Wendy."},{"start":858100,"end":866420,"speaker":"H","text":"Thank you, Dr. Baker. Good evening, everybody. And Dr. Baker, if you wouldn't mind, it's hard for me to see the board as I'm presenting, so feel free to interrupt."},{"start":866420,"end":866860,"speaker":"E","text":"I will."},{"start":866860,"end":867780,"speaker":"I","text":"I will, definitely."},{"start":868100,"end":1043519,"speaker":"H","text":"All right, Kyle, next slide. Thank you. So tonight I'm going to be giving you a variety of information as we progress along. We consistently update the board and the public in our board meetings on changes minor and major as we progress along in these new times. One update. We did hear from a couple of parents and through our county office of ways we can enhance our dashboard. And we're always interested in new ideas and ways that we can help support communication in our community and so forth. And so it was timely to update the COVID Dashboard. As you know, we were one of the first districts to put this out on our website back in the early spring, April or what have you. But we thought it would be better to be able to provide more specific data. So this is a snapshot of what our current Covid Dashboard looks like. The title RCSD Covid Dashboard is actually a live link. So when this presentation is uploaded, the public can click on that or simply go to our website. Big thank you to our director of communications, Jorge Quintana, who is updating this. And so what you see here is the same information that we had last week. Because it was the week of August 23rd. Our dashboard is updated by 5pm on Thursday of each week. So that will be tomorrow. But you can see here how it is broken down between students. We had 11 positive cases as of last week. Nine were students. We put our total student enrollment there, which we will modify now with John's updated numbers, too, and the number of employees identified as of last week. And then of course, our number of employees, this new section on the right side, other adults identified. Those are partners, the occasional visitor or other community members that may be on campus for a variety of reasons. As you know, we're not encouraging our active volunteerism and visitors as we have in the past, but we're trying. But we recognize people come on campus and we do have partners that we actively work with. So we created this last column of other adults. And so this will be updated each week and the appropriate cases put in the appropriate category. We are choosing not to depict this information by school site. We have some smaller schools and that that is concerning in regards to privacy. We're still trying to play close attention to that, but we thought this was a better step forward in our in our communication regarding the dashboard. Next slide, please."},{"start":1043519,"end":1045039,"speaker":"A","text":"Kyle, can I."},{"start":1045039,"end":1082460,"speaker":"F","text":"Before we move on from the dashboard, I just had a comment on it. Thank you for breaking it down like this. I think it's good to see that information. I was actually looking at the dashboard, I think it was earlier today, and noticed that if you scroll down, it still is the data from last year. And so the header doesn't actually match. So I don't know if there's a way we can break it out because I think the third column used to be number of cohorts that have gone into quarantine. And so it's a little confusing if you don't know that that was a switch. So I don't know if there's a way that we can have like last year's dashboard and then this year's above it."},{"start":1082780,"end":1087180,"speaker":"H","text":"Sure, I think that's an easy fix. Okay, we can update that."},{"start":1089740,"end":1144870,"speaker":"E","text":"And Wendy, just to clarify, so I know that we have our own data, right? Because we're doing our own testing. So we get that automatically, and that gets inputted here. And then my understanding is you're also inputting data. When somebody gets tested, whether it's a student or a staff member outside of our testing, then they would, if they tell us, then we would add it here. And so I could see cases where, because I know there were some questions that came up, well, why did we find out late, you know, at a particular situation? And I would think that some of that could happen because, you know, we'll get our testing right away, but if somebody waits a few days to let us know, we only know when we know. Right. And so. Yeah, but this includes all of it. Right? Sort of our own testing and what we're told, we just sort of take it on value that that's true, correct?"},{"start":1144950,"end":1178300,"speaker":"H","text":"Yes, that is true. So, yeah, and I'll discuss this a little bit later on in the presentation because we have a slide on the updates on student testing. But, yes, there's a variety of ways in which students and staff can be tested. Our school locations are one of them. And so, yes, it's a compilation of that service on sites. But we could have a family reach out or an employee reach out and say, I was tested on Saturday with my doctor and here is my positive test. That is a possibility."},{"start":1179980,"end":1197170,"speaker":"E","text":"Can I just say that these numbers look really good? I mean, I think we're all reading in the paper or hearing from people where they're seeing much higher incidents elsewhere, certainly in the whole United States, but also in California. I Think we're fortunate that these are our numbers right now."},{"start":1198770,"end":1461540,"speaker":"H","text":"Yes, agreed. We're pleased that they are low, but we are very strict on mask wearing and the latest protocols. And that's really important. And we're hoping that that's aiding in this cause. But we recognize that families are and our employees have lives outside the school day. And so we're managing the best as we can. But certainly on school sites and at the district office and other work buildings, all of the appropriate protocol and PPE and so forth are in place. From the latest guidelines to help help reduce this number, have it be small. All right, well, let's move on then. Kyle, please, next slide. So, perfect timing. We are discussing here on this slide the RCSD testing updates. And so last week I mentioned that, as you know, you may have heard in the news that the state is funding tests, student tests, employee tests, community tests. And so we have contracted with Bay pls, that is the vendor we are using, to provide support for specific testing for RCSD employees and students. And we have finalized our schedule. And I'm pleased to announce that we have two testing opportunities each week on each campus, including the district office, to accommodate employees at the district office facilities, personnel who are not on school sites and the imc. And then we are continuing in place the Thursday afternoon all district testing. This is for screening, testing or symptomatic testing or what have you at Kennedy and Hoover. So that will remain. We originally had a start date of October 1st, but we were able to pull that back to about mid September, possibly the 13th is what we're looking at. And we're also able to utilize these personnel to assist with our mobile response testing. So when there are positive cases in the classroom, we can divert. Not even divert. We have a whole mobile team that is moving from site to site as needed to assist with the reactionary potential symptomatic or even asymptomatic testing of a classroom or what have you the very next day or even that afternoon as soon as we know. So I'm thrilled with this result. The seven personnel are going to be very helpful. It includes a coordinator that will assist our Covid team at the district office to be able to get communication out right away to families and employees and really field all the questions that people have. There's a lot of questions that come with each situation as people progress and learn what to do next when there is a positive student or potentially a staff member. I do have bad news. I'm sorry to be the messenger. Don't shoot the MESSENGER on this one. But we did learn from Bay pls who let us know in a recent meeting and we did learn through our county that there is now a nationwide shortage of rapid antigen tests. I don't want to say no surprise. Everyone's trying to order these tests. And as you know, there are two types of tests, the rapid antigen test and the PCR test. And so we are going to utilize whatever test we can. Last spring we did use PCR tests at most of our schools, except Taft and Henry Ford that used rapid antigen. I'm not thrilled that there is a longer response time. That can be frustrating. Whereas the rapid antigen we can get within results within 15 minutes and then possibly even test again in day three to five after an exposure. However, that is what we are managing right now. Hopefully the rapid antigen tests will be more mass produced and we can move in that direction. We will have testing it just the test may look different. Kyle, next slide. Thank you."},{"start":1461540,"end":1475380,"speaker":"B","text":"I have a quick question on testing. So for a family registers, their students tested it at school during the school day, but do they get tested twice a week or is it just that there's two opportunities per week?"},{"start":1476020,"end":1476740,"speaker":"H","text":"Great question."},{"start":1477540,"end":1477940,"speaker":"E","text":"So"},{"start":1480180,"end":1554280,"speaker":"H","text":"there are two types of testing situations. One is a screening test where I say, you know, I'd like to know whether I may have Covid. So I'm going to go and have a screening test. And we have offered those on Mondays and Thursdays at Kennedy and Hoover thus far. And then so moving forward. Kyle, can you go back to that previous slide, please? As of mid September, we will be offering that at every single site. The second way to test is when there is a positive case in the class or there are symptomatic people that need to be tested. Those are the two opportunities. However, for students, we must have their parent register the student online and agree that they will be tested. So the schools made a big push at May's Day before the beginning of the year, Mr. Perez sent out information as well to families. Not so much to commit to testing at the beginning of the year, although that would have been lovely. But even throughout the year, in case there's a symptomatic situation or a reactionary case in the classroom. So we must have that parent permission essentially to test. Did that answer your question, Mike?"},{"start":1555880,"end":1556680,"speaker":"B","text":"Yeah, thanks."},{"start":1557000,"end":1557640,"speaker":"H","text":"Okay."},{"start":1557800,"end":1569370,"speaker":"D","text":"And then can I ask a question regarding testing? Is this testing for Redwood City School District students? Does this include any of the charter students?"},{"start":1571210,"end":1589370,"speaker":"H","text":"So the charter schools are contracting with their own vendor. So this information on this slide is specifically to our 12 school sites and our other Redwood City School District personnel in IMC facilities in the district office."},{"start":1592500,"end":1592980,"speaker":"D","text":"Thank you."},{"start":1596020,"end":1820480,"speaker":"H","text":"Okay, Kyle, next slide, please. So we wanted to present just a couple of FAQ bits of information. There's in the course of tracking and tracing, Aaron Cacos and HR and Antonio Perez, our director of student services field various questions and there's this. I know change is hard for everybody, but we are following the San Mateo County Pandemic framework as we always have. Cal, osha, et cetera, cdph. And the information has changed from the spring as it has now for the fall. In the spring, when there was a positive case, the entire class pivoted to distance learning. And then, and thus the entire class was notified that they'd have to switch to distance learning. And that was the protocol at the time. So flash forward a few months. The pandemic framework changed. The latest edition is August 23rd. And what we do now when there is a positive case is different than what we did in the spring. And this isn't an RCSD policy. This is truly following the framework. So if anyone wanted to pull up the San Mateo County Pandemic Framework, it's very clear to read, I highly recommend reading it. We do that often. But right now what we do is we notify those that need to be notified in a different way. So we have the positive case, let's say hypothetically in a class. And there's outreach to that family, of course, that's how we find out and guidance given. Then there's another notification which is deemed to be close contacts. And this is part of the tracking and tracing procedures, which can be quite time consuming. It's determining by discussing with the school staff and depending on the age of the child, the child who was closer to than 6ft for more than 15 cumulative minutes. Then we address those close contacts in a communication we have now, what's called modified quarantine. And so at the last school board meeting last week, we described what that looked like. And so really the close contacts, unless they are developing symptoms, have one pathway. They can attend in person instruction, but they must test twice a week. Having that system that is going to start mid September in place is going to be very convenient for families. It's not the only way, but we're offering a service on site. Families can also go to their medical provider. They can go to the other community resources, which I have later in the slide as well. Regardless, they do need to test twice a week for 10 days. But only close contacts in the class are notified versus the entire Class, because of the need to communicate this modified quarantine requirement, it's a more in depth conversation. The other notification that occurs is a school wide notification. And that is just once again, an awareness for families to pay a little bit more closer attention to their child, potential symptoms, et cetera. So I just wanted to point this out. We get a few questions and part of that has to do with just the change. But we're taking opportunities to communicate this whenever we can. Questions on the slide."},{"start":1821600,"end":1862470,"speaker":"E","text":"Yeah, Wendy. So just so just to clarify, so if there's a positive case in a classroom, let's say a first grade classroom at one of our school sites, there's a positive case that child, after talking either to the child or the staff and the staff person, I guess it's the staff person. Let's say there's three close contacts who are right around them or in their group. So those three close contacts do this modified quarantine and will be notified, obviously. And then the whole school at that school site just gets a notice. By the way, there was a positive case at the school."},{"start":1862700,"end":1864460,"speaker":"H","text":"School. Correct."},{"start":1865740,"end":1871020,"speaker":"E","text":"Okay. And the classroom itself won't be identified."},{"start":1871580,"end":1871980,"speaker":"C","text":"No."},{"start":1872380,"end":1873580,"speaker":"E","text":"Gotcha. Okay."},{"start":1873740,"end":1881340,"speaker":"F","text":"And that letter that goes out to the whole school does say if your child is a close contact, you'll be getting a separate notification."},{"start":1883660,"end":1886460,"speaker":"E","text":"Great. Thank you for the clarification. Appreciate that."},{"start":1886940,"end":2273820,"speaker":"H","text":"Chair. All right, Kyle, we can move along. Thank you. So as I mentioned earlier, there are different opportunities. I know families very much rely on the convenience of testing at a school site. However, it is really, you know, it takes a village, and it's the village we rely on. So while we do have the opportunity at the school sites, there are other opportunities, and they're listed here. And then of course, a medical provider if need be. And that's for symptomatic testing. But these are opportunities where there can be, I call it proactive screening testing or reactive testing or concerns that there may have been an exposure not necessarily verified with a positive case or close contact. Right, Kyle. Okay. So this is something I wanted to bring up. It's on the horizon. We don't need to make any decisions tonight. But I do want to have a discussion about this because it's percolating there. And we reached out to our county council. We do look at all of this guidance. But when it comes to something that could change our workforce or that requires a lot of scrutiny in terms of policy or procedure changes, I want to try and give you as much advance notice on this. So you may have been hearing in the News, of course, of vaccination mandates for employees. And so we did do a deep dive in this over the last week. Right now the only FDA approved vaccination is Pfizer. And we do have about half of our employees that have taken the Pfizer vaccination specifically. However, what we're really concerned about on this slide is our unvaccinated employees. So we did send out a self certification in June and also in August, capturing our new hires. And we have about 792 responses out of 890 employees. So we still are waiting for 100 and some odd responses. And we are consistently reaching out to make sure people do respond one way or another, whether they have been vaccinated or not. And then those that have been vaccinated note which vaccination and are sending in their cards, copies of their cards and so forth. However, we are now talking about the beginning stages because at some point we will need board input on this to make these decisions. There is a two terms, a hard mandate and a soft mandate. So with a hard mandate, we are stating to our employees that they must be vaccinated as a condition of our employment, which is our legal right to enforce at this time. For FDA approved vaccination nations at this time is only Pfizer. And so there's a quote here from the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing to this end. And it does speak about requesting a reasonable accommodation for disability and so forth. So I wanted to make sure that this was noted then the other option is a soft mandate. And so I put the link here for the California Department of Public Health order as of August 11th. And this is the practice that we are currently using where employees are either vaccinated or unvaccinated. If they're not vaccinated, they test at least once a week. We are encouraging twice a week. And the district of course continues to provide specialized PPE per Cal osha. So the soft mandate is what we have been using this month, actually August and end of course in July. So I wanted to just start this conversation tonight and I'm sure it will continue. So with that I'm gonna have Kyle go to the next slide because we put some question prompts for us to think about. So when we are thinking about the discussion topics. Oh, 762 employees, my apologies. I want us to think about, do we wait to make the decision until all vaccinations are FDA approved? If we want to entertain the hard mandate discussion, are we willing to reduce our workforce as a result of mandating A vaccination, if it comes to that employee, has to make a choice. When would we notify employees if we wanted to do this? If we choose to mandate as a condition of employment, you know, there's a timeline, the six week vaccination process for those that then choose to move in that direction. And then for the soft mandate, we are currently, as you know, allowing unvaccinated employees to be at work with the items I just mentioned, the specialized PPE and the testing. So is this even a concern of ours? Are we worried about having unvaccinated employees at work? Are we able to continue offering testing? I think with our new vendor that probably is not an issue. Do we have enough ppe? Yes, we can do that. Are we concerned that symptomatic unvaccinated employees will need to quarantine for 10 days and not be at work? That requires substitutes, which we are short with. If anyone in the community would like to substitute, please contact my office. We'd love to have you then. Is there a public perception concern about having unvaccinated employees at work? So these were just some starting points for a conversation. I'm sure there are a lot more questions to be considered, but we just wanted to start the conversation tonight. So that concludes our slides. Kyle, I think we might leave this up for a moment in case we need to reference this. Thank you. So I'd like to open this up to the board for discussion on this particular topic."},{"start":2278540,"end":2302370,"speaker":"D","text":"I have just a clarifying question on the SOF mandate number four. It says an unvaccinated person would have to quarantine for 10 days. I was under the impression that vaccinated people quarantined for 10 days, but unvaccinated people had to do 14 days. Is that still the case?"},{"start":2303730,"end":2306930,"speaker":"H","text":"Well, we're looking at 10 work days. Excuse me."},{"start":2315330,"end":2422870,"speaker":"E","text":"So, I mean, I know personally, I believe that we're safer the more people we can get vaccinated. I do understand that there's some people, for health reasons who are unable to get vaccinated. I know. You know, we had one of our own beloved employees who after first vaccination had a severe reaction. So has been told by their doctor, you know, no, no, on the second vaccination. So we know that there are people who have had reactions from other vaccines that are not able to or for other health reasons. So we do know that. But I feel like for our students, for our community, those who can get vaccinated should get vaccinated. So I would lean towards when we have the illegal ability to require vaccinations for our employees, except for the health reasons. And it looks like in the law it's also same for religious beliefs that we do it. I think what's hard right now with Pfizer is if we only have half of our employees with Pfizer and then a lot more with the other vaccine, would we try to require them to also take the Pfizer, which I don't even know if that's health encouraged. Probably not. And so I think it's a little tricky until at least the other two that, you know, there's three of them, of course, that have been taken by our employees. So anyway, that's where I lean, that I would, I would want to lean towards requiring the vaccine within the legal ability that we have to do it. I just think right now it's tricky if it's, you know, anyway, it just gets tricky with only having one."},{"start":2424800,"end":2446720,"speaker":"F","text":"So I think on that point, though, it doesn't matter what vaccine our staff have. It could be Moderna or Johnson and Johnson and they still qualify as vaccinated. It's just that because Pfizer is now FDA approved, we can mandate the Pfizer vaccine for those who are still."},{"start":2446800,"end":2459050,"speaker":"E","text":"Oh, I guess that's a good point. I'm sorry, I'm not even thinking this through. You're right. So, so basically we would then for those who are unvaccinated, you would just require them to get the Pfizer. That's a good point. Thank you, Janet. Yeah,"},{"start":2464890,"end":2493150,"speaker":"F","text":"I'd actually like to hear some input from our community on this. So I know there's not a lot of people in the audience. You know, I think our vaccination rate in San Mateo county, in our, in our district is pretty high, significantly higher than most other places in the country. And that's why I would be comfortable with the soft mandate. I'm also not opposed to a hard mandate. And so I think that's why I'd like some more feedback from, you know, a wider range of our community members."},{"start":2496830,"end":2524900,"speaker":"E","text":"Well, and I think if we want a wider range, we should probably specify that this is a specific agenda item because it's sort of under the broader envelope of this school year where we, you know, if it was agendized as vaccine only, you might have more people comment. And I guess I'd be curious from our staff as well, in addition to what Janet said, community members, and then also what your recommendation is."},{"start":2535150,"end":2573640,"speaker":"D","text":"I mean, I guess my, my point with this also, I'm just like with Janet, fine with the soft mandate. But if it becomes a hard mandate, I'm fine with it too. The way I see it with the coronavirus is more deadly than any other. Even like we recommend that students get the whooping cough vaccine. Right. So there's other vaccines that are less, I would say, deadly. And we are actually asking for them to be vaccinated. So that would be my take on that one."},{"start":2582210,"end":2588850,"speaker":"F","text":"I just want to say thank you to the audience members who are here. We're getting a lot of feedback in the chat just from those who are here right now."},{"start":2593730,"end":2607880,"speaker":"E","text":"And actually the audience cannot see the chat. But basically I think they're mostly saying that they would, they would like to see the hard mandate, they would like to see more, more of our employees vaccinated."},{"start":2609720,"end":2617560,"speaker":"F","text":"And I think the tricky part is that 128 who have not responded yet. We really need that information from those individuals."},{"start":2620200,"end":2673100,"speaker":"B","text":"Yeah, I think understanding the full picture has got to be part of it here. And you know, the Softman, it's part of layers. I think we've always talked about how we have, you know, layers of protection here and the vaccine mandated, like a mask is, is another layer. But even in the soft mandate, there's several layers in there. Repetitive testing, masking, and of course, the regular screening that we have going on there. So I think, I think we should understand what would be the effect of a hard mandate if we were to take that option. I don't see the full picture here and I got to learn when these slides get put up. So I know that these topics are coming because when I read the packet over the weekend, it's not there. But I think that, you know, getting that full picture I think will really help make the decision."},{"start":2675500,"end":2676380,"speaker":"E","text":"Yeah, I agree."},{"start":2676460,"end":2707430,"speaker":"G","text":"I think that I'm okay with the soft mandate and would like to see more of the implications of like, for example, you mentioned substitutes, what would that look like? And stuff. So that's where I'm at. But I'm not opposed to the hard mandate. I just need to have more information to know what the full impact will be."},{"start":2708550,"end":2728920,"speaker":"B","text":"I think that's a good way to put it is what's the impact to learning. I think that's the part that I'm missing here is I understand the impact to. I understand it in one dimension, but I don't have the full picture of what's the impact to student learning and how do we make that trade off because it's a polarity. There's two ends to it and it's hard to know on which end we'd be ending up at."},{"start":2731560,"end":2991260,"speaker":"I","text":"So this discussion is going to be a heavy discussion among all 23 superintendents because we have asked this to be put on the next agenda. Each of our districts are a bit different, but it's a belief that when the FDA approves the vaccine among the 23 of us that it should be a mandate. Now, that being said, we have just heard you come up with different types of information that you would need before you would go in that direction. And what I understand the county is hoping for is that the Madera and the Johnson and Johnson would also be FDA approved, you know, within the next four to six weeks. So that we as districts in San Mateo county can all be going in this manner. Especially the high school districts are very much concerned because of the after school sports that students are playing. And in order for those sports to occur and the close proximity to one another, they want to not only their employees, but their students to be mandated. Now we're in a little different category right now because it's just 12 and above. But that's something also that will be coming down the pike is in regard to students, especially when it starts to involve our students who are five years old and above. I've heard the clarification, the comments, the questions that you've asked, and we will come back to you at a later board meeting to bring this topic up again when I have further information from the County Office of ED and also from the CDPH. As I said, all 23 superintendents are very interested in going forward in mandating once the FDA has approved all three vaccines to move in this direction. And yes, there will need to be information sent out to our own employees. We need to gather that additional information from those who have not submitted the survey responses to us. Plus we would really need to we are doing this in the near future. Our nurses are checking with our students that are 12 years old and above if they have had the vaccine. They're not asking the student, they're asking the parents. We have asked for that information that will be coming to you also at future board meeting. There is a lot of to have before you really make that determination. But when you make the determination, then we will get our county council involved so that she can make sure that the language is the appropriate language needed for us to move down that pathway. Our next board meeting is on the 22nd. I don't believe we will have the discussion then. There will be more information regard to where the districts are and going in this manner. But we hope that we will, number one, have started with the information with our own students about whether they have received the vaccine or not. The number that we can give you. And also what is happening to those employees of ours who have not responded. Because we do need a response. We need a response."},{"start":2996380,"end":3044400,"speaker":"E","text":"So just so I clarify, since I might have muddied the waters with my comments or questions earlier, because we're getting a few comments on this in the chat from some of our employees, it seems to me that with if we. So right now we have the SOF mandate, right? And then if we added a hard mandate, we would not be asking the staff who have already been vaccinated with the other two vaccines to get an additional vaccine. I mean, they've been vaccinated. We know that, you know, we, we've got the scientific information, extra protection they get with that. So I just want to clarify that I did see that in the chat from some of our staff that no, if you got the Moderna, if you got the Johnson and Johnson, you're, you're fine, you're vaccinated."},{"start":3044400,"end":3050480,"speaker":"I","text":"I mean, you know, it's the unvaccinated that can get the vaccine."},{"start":3050560,"end":3061840,"speaker":"E","text":"Right? So the unvaccinated. We now have the legal ability to require them to take the Pfizer vaccine if we choose to do that. It sounds like we do have the"},{"start":3061840,"end":3065720,"speaker":"I","text":"legal ability for Pfizer. Only for Pfizer only right."},{"start":3065720,"end":3135630,"speaker":"E","text":"For anyone who's unvaccinated. Okay. So I just want to say clearly again that I would be for, you know, I realize we're not going to make a decision tonight. It's not an action item. But assuming that the data comes back that others have asked for, and I do think we need the data, like, what does that mean for us? What's the impact for us? Because, you know, if certain number of employees quit, what does that look like? You know, so we do need that information. But from everything I know scientifically, I believe that we ought to get as many people vaccinated as we can. I mean, that's what the medical profession says. That's what the scientists say. And so I would be for a hard mandate. So I just want to be very clear about that. So I think the sooner we can gather the information that we've talked about tonight and make that decision, because there's going to be a Runway for employees that either we're going to require that or we're going to have to provide accommodations. Right. For those that legally meet the requirement for. Not now, this is just my opinion I obviously would need four, you know, two more votes from the board, but I do feel strongly about it. So I just want to put that out there as you think through it and bring it back to us for a decision."},{"start":3135790,"end":3136350,"speaker":"B","text":"Exactly."},{"start":3136350,"end":3179540,"speaker":"I","text":"And like I said previously, we will need to bring back the additional information that you have asked for this evening, along with information that we have garnered from the county office of Ed and also from our own San Mateo county office. Not county office, but the health department. As I said, All 23 districts, the superintendents. This is a topic at the top of all of our list when we are meeting. And so we asked to meet with San Mateo County Health also at our next meeting to come in along with our attorneys.

Because I do think this is a pretty big discussion topic and just sort of see it for the first time and respond. It's a lot.

It's going to take a longer period than that. And as I said, we are definitely having our legal counsel making sure that we have the proper language in place, too, when we move forward with the mandate. She has been looking at different aspects of the law, and then she's also been looking at what other states have been providing to their employees and taking that information and also synthesizing it and moving forward here in the state of California to see if we can also replicate some of it. So it's not going to happen overnight. So we will definitely put it up on our website. And these topics that you have here before you, these are topics that Wendy and I came up with to start this discussion because we haven't had it before. And it's a discussion that needs to occur with more staff members, our teachers, and also our community. We will definitely have it out for you, at least on that Monday so that people can see it, if not prior to that. It's a hot topic and it's happening throughout the state of California right now along with. And we're very fortunate the masking is not. I mean, we're not having any concerns about the masking, which I'm very, very grateful, as you have seen and read seen on the news or read in social media about what other boards are having to tolerate with masking in the schools. Okay, So I think I know where we need to go. Wendy, do you have any questions? I wrote all the information down. And then we also have the chats. What's really good about the chat is that we can take information that people are asking on the chat and also utilize that information as questions to get responses."},{"start":3405950,"end":3424500,"speaker":"D","text":"So I have a comment.

I do have three kids at three different schools. And so I've talked to them separately about, you know, when you go out to recess, do you wear your mask? Do other people wear their masks? And all three of them individually have reported that at their schools, nobody takes their mask off outside. They only take them off to eat. So I suspect that's probably happening around the district. So I, you know, I don't know. The framework allows for them to be unmasked outdoors. So, you know, that's something to consider. But it does sound like a lot of students are keeping their masks on."},{"start":3485140,"end":3516060,"speaker":"H","text":"So, Janet, to that point, we did notify administrators that. And essentially quoted the San Mateo Pandemic Framework that said masks were optional outside. I mean, certainly the eating and drinking mask breaks, etc. Would be outside. However, you know, we do all recognize that masks are helpful. So we did have that discussion with the administrators. But we did leave it with it being optional based on the framework."},{"start":3526550,"end":3556530,"speaker":"I","text":"All right, thank you for the information that we received from you and also from our members in the community and including teachers and staff.

Thank you again to the board policy committee. We had a great meeting, started the kickoff for the year with these board policies. And so as a reminder to the board and to the audience that these board policies do come from CSBA as a draft, either as new board policies or updated. And so you can see the bold and strike through indications when there is an updated policy. So for this particular one, 11.2, this is the board policy on civility. And every quarter we receive new board policies that the board will consider. And so this one, as noted here, really addresses how we're treating each other. Essentially, civil behavior, an opportunity for education of students, staff and community members regarding civil behavior. We do this in many degrees already through our positive behavior intervention system, pbis, which hopefully everyone knows about and has heard about. It's a program that schools have adopted many years ago and includes incremental information to students about topics such as these. And. And it will also come into play to another board policy I'll talk about tonight. So that is one way that it is addressed with students and then with staff through our annual HR trainings. So there's information on this topic as well. So we felt that this board policy would be very appropriate to add in our efforts to have a collaborative work environment. Are there any questions about this particular policy?"},{"start":3693880,"end":3703960,"speaker":"E","text":"I just checked. There's no comments from the public, so we'll go on to the next one.

But essentially this board policy is speaking about the importance of celebrating diversity and ensuring that students are educated and have language about various topics, including hate motivated behavior that's woven in within the PBIS curriculum and other social emotional type learning that occurs. So this particular board policy is an update and noting that when there are complaints and so forth, that they are reported to the district's compliance offer officer, which happens to be myself for staff and Antonio Perez for students. And so that information is found on the complaint form that is also on our website and within our board policy as well.

It also recognizes that we do need to have on student identification cards for our upper grades, the national domestic hotline, and updates information regarding mandated reporters, which all of our staff are and are trained annually on that. So there are. There's various information in here, including also our new law, AB114, which amends the definition of sexual assault in regards to mandated reporter.

And then there was a children's place Primary intervention program for students impacted by drug and alcohol abuse and their families.

It was really just an additional amount so that we had coverage for students who needed support through the month of July and the first half of August.

So my comment was, should the contract be more specific and differentiate the school sites and whether those Services are or were already available. And then the other thing was on the rationale, they mentioned Roosevelt and Kennedy and then they also mentioned Kennedy, Roosevelt and Hoover. So were the services provided for two schools? Was it because was that during the summer?

So I believe the one that was changed by the business office is 13.3. But in general, what is the inconsistency? There is the which school site receives which kind of service. So I think it was just mentioned like three school sites, but not each one of those school sites receives the same types of service. So that's, that's where I think the confusion is. So for example, the resiliency does that applies to all three? Some. Some of the services does not apply to all three. It's just a specific school site. I think that's also where the confusion is. But as far as the budget, there's a budget that's set aside for it. I mean, there's sufficient amount for. For the, for. For budget purposes. But it's just where is the service provided, which is specific school site? Is it all the same for all school site?

So it sounds to me like Priscilla said, actually this one 13.2. Maybe it's a similar issue as 13.1, that there was some inaccuracies on the board memo, but the actual agreement is accurate. And so again, it's a similar thing that the action item is actually to approve the agreement. And if the agreement from our end we don't think needs to be changed and it's adequate and that's what was posted, it seems to me that once again, we could approve this agreement with clarification in the minutes that the agreement is what everybody, you know, that's the agreement that was out in the public and what we looked at, if I'm understanding that correctly."},{"start":5103500,"end":5104020,"speaker":"F","text":"Yeah."},{"start":5104020,"end":5141990,"speaker":"C","text":"So if Andrea confirms that the agreement itself really defines what the services has to be provided, then we can say, yes, then the agreement does not have to be revised.

So in the contract itself, if you would look at the dollar amount for the compensation, it says 0 to up to 473,000, which seems weird, you know, when we look at it. But Andrea couldn't change it because it's an online form and only takes a number. It cannot. We cannot put NA in that number because part of this is not really school district. Redwood City School District, own cost, but it will be paid from a grant.

And it was very chaotic and we had some city council members there. I was there. We had the principal, Sarah Shackle, along with a school board member, Alan Sarver from the high school district. We had the principal from Sequoia High School District along with a couple of his staff and then Raphael from Redwood City together. So we were able to document quite a bit. And we came up with some photos and a number of hotspots we thought from a safety issue. And we put together some suggested items in a spreadsheet and we've shared those with the city. So the good news is that very afternoon we did have a crossing guard out at Jefferson and Cleveland where there had not been one, and an agreement that they've been having trouble staffing that crossing guard position. Similar to, you know, lots of organizations and agencies right now are having difficulty staffing. So they've made a commitment to either have a police officer or the crossing guard out there until that light actually gets working. So in the light may not be working until later in September. So that's several weeks away. And then the city manager did report to us today that they're looking at all the other recommendations and they'll be providing responses. And already they've started to implement some additional safety measures around that area, but there's still a lot more to be done. So I just wanted to let everybody know about that. So the good news is, I think our efforts, you know, hopefully are saving lives and that sort of thing, which is really important. And that's it."},{"start":5958500,"end":5970340,"speaker":"I","text":"Dr. Baker, there's only one, really one item, and that was chamber meeting this today. And, Janet, did you get an agenda?

They introduced the new superintendent at Sequoia High School, the superintendent in San Carlos, and also the interim president for Kenyatta College. And it was a panel discussion, so that's all it was. So you really didn't miss a whole lot. The only thing that was very interesting is that from. Who is it Mark berman's office, about AB130, the independent study, how people are really complaining about there were no guidelines and so forth. And so they're trying to come up with guidelines now and more specificity, but we don't need them. As I told. We're done. We're done. As far as that's concerned. We're already on our way, so. So. But it was not a regular exciting meeting like it's been in the past, so you didn't miss much. That's all for me. But just a big shout out again to the staffs and the teachers and the principals for all the great things that they're doing to get schools up and running and get children in person.
