If you're speaking to the board, the public is encouraged to speak to the board on issues of concerns, whether or not the issues are on the agenda. To address the board, please complete a speaker's card if you are in person and a Google form if you are online. If you wish to speak to the board on a subject listed on the agenda, you will be called to the podium at the time that the item is being considered by the board. If the item is not on the agenda, you will be called to the podium during oral communication. Public comments are limited to three minutes per person per topic unless otherwise noted. And are there any changes to the agenda? Great, thank you. Hearing none. Moving on to item four, approval of the agenda. Can I please get a motion to approve?"},{"start":97290,"end":99930,"speaker":"D","text":"I'll move to approve a second."},{"start":100250,"end":104650,"speaker":"A","text":"All those in favor? Aye.

Now moving on to bond program action items 6.1. Discussion and approval of final project list."},{"start":115080,"end":118120,"speaker":"E","text":"Hi guys. Can you guys hear me?"},{"start":118920,"end":119720,"speaker":"F","text":"Affirmative."},{"start":120120,"end":615090,"speaker":"E","text":"Awesome. Thank you guys. So, one quick note before we dive into this discussion. There was one project that was approved by the bond team. A safety related project that we were hoping would be on the agenda tonight with this item. But we did not receive the proposal from the contractor in time to make the front load deadline. So that's a project at Haas. Electrified door gates at both sides of the Haas campus with intercoms for access. So that project will be coming back. We do have the pricing now from the contractor and that'll be coming to the next board meeting. So that project is currently budgeted for and would not be a part of the $800,000 discussion. But I did want to mention that that will be coming to the next board meeting. And so now to jump in to the discussion. So as noted, There is approximately $800,000 left in the board reserve that needs to be committed to final projects. And so we have one small project that's brought been prioritized. The McKinley Theater lighting technology upgrade project. It's approximately $50,000. We do have accurate pricing and would be ready to move on this project if you guys approve this one to proceed. So that's the only kind of developed project on this list. The two other projects EV chargers, we estimated approximately $15,000 per charging port. It would depend on the location of the chargers, you know, they're the distance to, you know, the nearest electrical tie in and the site work required. But the thought here is that multiple sites have EV chargers. I believe seven of your sites have EV chargers. And so there would be an opportunity to do, you know, anywhere from like two to four or any, any number of EV chargers that you guys would desire at the sites that do not yet have EV chargers, if you wanted to proceed in that, in that manner. So if you guys were interested in proceeding with EV chargers, we could look at the specific sites and better understand, you know, what would be required, the most efficient location for those EV chargers and then could bring back, you know, bring back proposals to execute at those sites. The last item on the list that has been tracked for I think like three or four years now, solar. This one, this item and all of our past discussions on, you know, remaining funding has been kicked down to the bottom of the list. But I'm going to get into some detail on this one. And the clock is kind of ticking to execute on these projects. So here, let me get into, let me get my details. You have 12 sites remaining that do not yet have solar. If you consider McKinley and North Star to be a single site. And so all 12 of the sites do have solar interconnection applications that have been approved by PG and E. And so what those do is they, the approved interconnection applications have grandfathered the district in to the financially preferable net energy metering 2 rate. It's called NEM2. So we completed those applications and got approval from PG and E, I believe about a year ago to ensure that the district was grandfathered into this rate, knowing the direction that things are going with solar and PG and E. And so the district has 2.5 years left to complete any of these approved solar projects before you would lose the grandfathering and the rate there after, you know, would it would decrease the financial benefit of doing solar if you got kicked to the next rate structure and it would decrease the financial benefit by approximately 40%. And so all that being said, we did, we have looked at doing district wide solar on all remaining sites and a very high level estimated project cost to do all sites would be approximately $17 million. And that's like, that's full project cost, state permitting, you know, management, legal, you know, all in. And so that would fully offset your remaining 12 sites to approximately 90, 95% offset. And so the high, a very high level estimate of the system payback period, if you were to proceed with solar would be approximately 10 years. And if you were interested in going down this path, we'd want to take some time to, you know, to tighten in the numbers and do, you know, a deeper financial study. But we just looked at Your most recent RCSD monthly PG&E bill and last month was a quarter million dollars. We are seeing that the sites that you have done solar at, we offset those to about 90, 95% earlier on in the program. Selby, Clifford, Roosevelt and the district office. And we're seeing that those sites are, you know, nearly $0 on the bill. I think they're, you know, anywhere from, from like 100 to around $1,000 if that. And so one other thing that comes into play when looking at doing solar, there's a government tax credit that's available through the Inflation Reduction act and that actually would allow the district to recoup 30% of the total project cost. And so that would be 30% of approximately $17 million. And so that would be one other advantage if you guys did want to proceed in this way. We worked hard to ensure that all of the Measure T new construction and modernization projects met eligibility criteria for state funding reimbursement. And so in addition to this approximate $800,000 that we're discussing tonight, the district is expecting approximately $15 million back in reimbursement funding that could be available for spending by the end of the calendar year. So there would be an opportunity to proceed and fund a full district wide solar project if you guys were interested. So if interested, we could take a deeper dive into this study. It come back with, you know, a more accurate pro forma, more more refined financial analysis and you know, planning could, could begin immediately. So and then noting that these, these solar projects are pretty quick. You use a DSA pre approved structure and so these could be executed in the next year or two if you guys wanted to proceed. So just wanted to give you guys some information on solar and kind of open the discussion. I also wanted to ask all board members if there are any other potential projects that you might want to consider for this list or for discussion. So I'll stop speaking now."},{"start":617330,"end":618130,"speaker":"A","text":"Thank you, Will."},{"start":621570,"end":622130,"speaker":"G","text":"Hi Will."},{"start":622130,"end":681200,"speaker":"H","text":"Thank you for all that information. So a couple of questions. When you said the PG&E bill was about 250,000 last month, do you know how much that was a gas and how much was electrical? Because I'm just trying to figure out what the electrical piece of that was just to do some rough calculations. But I mean it's $3 million a year total for the PGENIA bill, which is a lot out of the general fund. So that's a huge savings that could go for educational programs, which would be awesome, and salaries and other great things. So. So even if it was half of that, it's still 1.5 million, which is a lot of money. So we don't necessarily need that today. But I just want, you know, that's sort of a question I have. And then I was curious, on the $15 million reimbursement, does that have to be used for certain. Does that have to be used for solar projects, or can that be okay, that."},{"start":681360,"end":712040,"speaker":"E","text":"That does not have to be used for solar projects. It's a reimbursement, you know, to the Measure T program. And so it could be used for anything that would fit within that verbiage. And also I have the. I have the bill that Rick's team sent through a couple days ago, and it's looking like this is quoting just the electrical portion. But I would want to confirm. Would want to confirm that on the quarter million."},{"start":712040,"end":826770,"speaker":"H","text":"So, yeah, so I would. I mean, you know, I, I think you've known I've been a longtime advocate of more solar, and I do want us to go renewable as much as we can. I also want to offset the general fund as much as we can. I mean, at 3 and $3 million a year, that is huge. That would be super helpful because we know we're looking for dollars everywhere right now. So I. So yeah, for me, I mean, I'd love to hear my other colleagues, but for me, I would love to see a more thorough analysis because, you know, you were sort of dropping a bunch to kind of look at, like, what would the time frame be? Can we do it in a reasonable amount of time to kind of wrap up the Measure T program? You said this money is coming in, you know, just all of that, like, what it would look like. And then, of course, we'd have to mesh that with our Measure S program and just make sure whatever we're doing, we're not going to be tearing down that building or something like that. Right. So we just have to be cautious about that and see if the timing works. I also, you know, we personally have solar on our home now, and so we're under that rate. And when I was looking at the new rate, I was like, oh, my gosh, for individuals or for businesses, it's not going to pencil out in the same way that it has for us. So same with the school district. Right. So it sounds like we have two and a half years so if there's any way we could do it, it would work out better in measure T than measure S. Because measure, you know, we had talked about that was still one of the. One of the items for a possible program under measure S. But timing wise, it would be better to do it if we could. So anyway, that's my thinking. My only other thought I wanted to say is I'm an advocate for the $50,000 for the McKinley Theater, assuming that we think that's a good project. I know that a lot of our kids are there, you know, doing performances. Both MIT and Northstar use it pretty regularly for assemblies. We use it as a district a lot for bigger meetings. So anyway, I'd be an advocate for that. That's just 50,000, so. Okay, I'll stop and thanks."},{"start":826770,"end":838170,"speaker":"E","text":"And Alicia, just one Note that the 2.5 years is a completed project. And so that's, you know, getting through state permitting process, executing and completing the build."},{"start":838330,"end":847130,"speaker":"H","text":"Yeah, we would have to expedite this. Right. But, you know, measure T was pretty successful in doing things rapidly once we made a decision."},{"start":847370,"end":1009060,"speaker":"F","text":"So anyway, I'd be a huge fan. I mean, this is an investment for the district that will pay itself back versus a depreciating asset, which would be fantastic. So I would love if we could pencil this out a little bit more. My suspicion is that if we include in projection of increasing PG and E rates because they aren't getting any cheaper. If you take a look at the last decade or so of cost per kilowatt hour, it's been pretty tremendous. My suspicion is we're going to see payback periods well under 10 years. Actually. I'd be interested in whether or not that quote of 17 million for full project cost includes batteries. My assumption is not. Yeah, so that could be an interesting thing for us to consider as part of measure S to both give us a chance to do offsetting to peak periods generally by about four hours or so, as well as to give us the ability to operate the campuses when there's a grid outage, which we just so member members of the public know. Not everybody knows this. If you have solar but don't have batteries and there's a grid outage, you also lose power at the site. That's due to a electrical artifact called anti islanding. But if you have a battery setup, it's possible to go and run off of solar plus the battery even when the grid is down. I know we had a number of grid outages that impacted instruction last year. And so getting to be Insulated against that would be very desirable. So even if we have to do is a one, two punch where we first do solar and then measure S, we look at adding batteries. I want to make sure that the way that we went about installing solar anticipated the installation of batteries at minimal additional cost versus having to do rework. But very enthusiastic. Also I was a theater kid, so thumbs up. I agree with what they both said in saying thinking that solar is good. I think that the next decade is going to be about climate proofing schools. It actually today is about climate proofing schools. We already have seen the impacts of, of so much of the climate change that's going on and decarbonizing is definitely a part of that. And so solar anticipating batteries, electrical appliances I think is a good direction for us to go. And of course I've spent many, many shows at the MIT theater, so I definitely, definitely support that as well. And to Will's last question, I have not heard of other requests. I don't know if any anyone else did. No, no. Oh, I'd tetherball the list."},{"start":1012740,"end":1028200,"speaker":"C","text":"Ditto what everyone else said. I'll just add Mike, as you were talking about climate proofing our schools, you know, with measure S, we're talking about adding air conditioning and H Vac. So all the more reason to offset some of those costs. So yep."},{"start":1034120,"end":1077560,"speaker":"A","text":"And then I won't repeat same here, but I do want to touch base on one of the items here, which is the EV charging stations. I had asked some questions and thank you Will and Martin for answering that. And so my thing with the EV chargers is like yes, I understand they're important, but really my obviously would be like what are we actually doing for the classroom, for the school, for the district? So that to me would be kind of in the back burner. So I just want to throw it out there. I'm all for solar. You know, it's expensive but at the long run the district will be saving money that can then the general fund go again back to the classrooms races like you mentioned."},{"start":1077560,"end":1080470,"speaker":"B","text":"And so yeah, and I'll just mention"},{"start":1080470,"end":1104910,"speaker":"C","text":"that the sites that have the 20 plus EV chargers and it was through PG&E grant funding and whatnot. So I think we'll see more. Right. And so I agree. I'd rather see like this would be my lowest priority because I think that we will see more grant options and I would rather see that money going into the classrooms."},{"start":1104910,"end":1105270,"speaker":"E","text":"Yeah."},{"start":1105270,"end":1136730,"speaker":"F","text":"And it's also like it's a power draw, so it's going to be an ongoing source of expenditure for us. We're spending money to spend money versus the sol. Their stuff is spending money to save money. So I'm, I, I have a lot less enthusiasm for the EV thing even though I, I have an ev. I love evs. That problem is getting solved outside of the campus and modern evs have sufficient range to be, even with a reasonable commute to be able to charge at home, use superchargers and other charging stations. So I, I don't think that's, that becomes critical apparatus for the, for the district to provide. So yeah, I agree with it being low priority."},{"start":1137460,"end":1188060,"speaker":"E","text":"And I do want to note based on Janet's comment, I do believe from some recent discussions with PG and E reps that there are now additional EV charging infrastructure grants. Back when we took advantage of, I think we got like somewhere between 3 to 5 million dollars worth of infrastructure grant money from PGE for the initial four sites, but they required you to do like, you know, near 20 per site. And the district, you know, we, we did take advantage of some really good rebates and incentives, but the district, you know, was required to pay for the charger portion of that. I'm not sure how that program looks now, but you know, that's something that, that you guys could look into as well. So, so yeah, under. Understood."},{"start":1190150,"end":1227460,"speaker":"H","text":"So actually one other will, I don't know if you've heard of this, but I thought I read somewhere recently that there was going to be grant funding available for solar over parking lots. It wasn't school specific, but it was statewide and I don't think that started to roll out yet, but I just bring that up that maybe we could do a little research on that. There may be some opportunities similar to what we did here where we got some rebates back from the state or. I, I don't know exactly how it works, but I, I know I read it, but I do. Are you familiar with this?"},{"start":1228020,"end":1233820,"speaker":"E","text":"I'm, I'm not. But you know, what I'm hearing is that you guys want us to dig in a little bit more."},{"start":1233820,"end":1238420,"speaker":"H","text":"So we actually, I'll try to see if I can find that resource that I read about."},{"start":1238900,"end":1312530,"speaker":"E","text":"We did a full, we did a full schematic design of solar district wide when we did the original cost estimate. Elisa, back when I believe you brought it up initially a few years ago. And so that work has been done and we recently just took a quick pass at updating that cost estimate at a high level. Solar prices are increasing quickly and so a lot of the work has been Done. So what I'm hearing is that you want me to re. Engage with that, with our energy consultant. And when I do that, the energy. Our energy consultant was the one that helped. Helped identify that big tax credit as well, the 30 tax credit on total project costs. So I can dig in with them on that and find out if there are any other grants, rebates, incentives available to help further offset this and free up, potentially free up more of that, you know, state money for other discussions. So what I'm hearing is proceed with the McKinley Theater lighting technology upgrades project and then dig in a little bit more on solar and try to come back ASAP to kind of report back on how that would look."},{"start":1313970,"end":1314890,"speaker":"A","text":"Yeah, that'd be great."},{"start":1314890,"end":1320620,"speaker":"H","text":"Would you like a motion on that?

Oh, yes, go ahead."},{"start":1320620,"end":1321980,"speaker":"B","text":"Rick, you're the."},{"start":1322060,"end":1323900,"speaker":"E","text":"What you're referring to with solar over"},{"start":1323900,"end":1326660,"speaker":"D","text":"parking lots of Senate Bill 49, that was signed by.

Good evening, Warren Cedar. I'm the very proud director of Adelante Selby Spanish Immersion school. We are the alebrijes. If I click this, we have four slides and 15 minutes to paint a little picture about why we have such a great school. And it's great place to learn in two languages and a great place for our students and families to engage. I'm going to go over this first slide on academics and we are two ways Spanish Immersion Program 9010 model. So students come in in kinder and first kinder and TK immersed in Spanish 90% of the day. The language of instruction, 10% English as they move up in the grade levels. By fourth and fifth grade it becomes 50 50. And our ultimate goal is that all of our students are fully bilingual and biliterate. Gaining the cognitive advantages of being bilingual and biliterate. Being able to read and write in both languages. Get the cognitive adv. So our tagline is we are very proud to be bilingual and our hearts beat in two languages. So our program delivery models. There's a lot of stuff going on in academics but a couple things to highlight are our thematic units. Integrated units which started as a way to teach English language learners language but it's also great for students that don't know Spanish to learn Spanish. Teaching thematic units, social studies and science, six to eight week long units. Teaching vocab academic vocabulary using different and effective strategies. In the upper right you can see students in a first grade classroom using a sentence patterning chart drawing labels chance in the lower left here second next to the parachute, students are in a dramatic Play center. And I love this picture. This is a now and long ago social studies unit where they're comparing now and long ago and the student with the telephone there, the cell, the that's considered long ago ancient history. A dial up telephone which is kind of funny and it looks like they're playing but they're using language right in the theme. So developing schema we think that's important and effective. It has research behind it. So we continue to do that. We've started three years ago with the work with nua. Now it's morphed into using pedagogy of confidence with Whitney. Not all, not Houston Whitney Eakin who's a wonderful tosa for our district. She has been amazing. She comes every Wednesday. There's a sign up sheet for for our teachers to have demo lessons to co teach with her. She can plan with them. In that lower right corner is one of our first faculty meetings this year. She's going over how to do frames, how to frame, how to do frames for, for our faculty. It's just been a great model to implement those thinking strategies and students making connections to what they're reading, to what they're writing, to their world, to what they're seeing around them. So we continue to do that new this year and there's a lot of news this year starting off with the Science of Reading and the California Reading Literacy Project work out of UC Berkeley. We've all been trained a couple of days, lots of training. So upper left they're in slide of teachers in training around phonics instruction in English. Now ironically we're Spanish immersion, right? Spanish is phonetic so it's. We've been teaching it phonics all along especially in the, in the K2 grade levels. That's nothing new for us. What is new is we're using a friend DUA layer which is our former RSP teacher who's now the district wide coach developed this, this series of how to how to read and write in Spanish. That's what we're using and but what has informed our work for the English part of the day is this phonics. So more there's a phonics time of the day and how to teach it specifically. So we've moved from the font to Bennell level leveled readers to more stages of reading and teaching giving assessments like Fastbridge, the basic Basic Phonics Skills test, BPST lots of acronyms in education to identify needs and they'll do a whole group lesson on a specific area that they see that as A need of the classroom and then pull their small groups. So we have Meister Nell there in the upper left doing a small group reading lesson with a, with a small group of students. Phonics based lesson. And I encourage you to go back and click on that link. I don't know if it's live for you as the board members to see it where it says CRLP phonics work because we label the different stages of the lesson so you get a little bit of flavor of it. So that was, that's been a lot and will continue to be a lot. It's an adaptation at our school site and all the schools. Another big one is illustrative math or illustrative math depending on how you pronounce it. So illustrative math is a big shift for us. And the picture in purple there where it says problem based teaching and learning is trying to illustrate the difference in the lesson delivery. So I'm old school. I come from explicit direct instruction where it's. I do as a teacher. Here's the math problem. I'm going to explain how to solve it in the different steps and give you a couple samples and you're my class. Then we're going to do a couple of problems together that we do. And then I'm going to say, okay, now you're ready to do it on your own. And then I'm going to come around and help you or I'll pull a small group. That's kind of what all of our teacher, well, veteran teachers are used to teaching. This model is different. You can see it here. The teacher in the warm up invites the students to the problem. They show that they display the problem. Now it's you do. It's not. I'm doing it. I'm not showing you how to do it. You think about it. You figure out the problem. Then I'm going to give you, you go talk to the person next to your, whoever your partner is, you're going to talk together. And I'm as a teacher going around facilitating your collaborations, encouraging you to talk about how you're solving the problem. Then those few students are going to make a bigger group. They're going to be four of you and I'm walking around encouraging that conversation on how to solve the problem. Then that last bit there, I just walk over to it. Yeah, because I can't point in this area is where the teacher is, is bringing them all together and we're, we're synthesizing at that point so they're making connections between Their learning and clarifying how to solve the problem. They release them to a few activities, do a closure and then they're doing math games. So you can see a couple pictures here from this year. The round table, they're doing a math game. The below the sentence patterning chart. They're, they're talking about how to solve the problem. So you kind of get a flavor of it. So I really want to applaud my, my staff, my teachers for their dedication, hard work and willingness to try something new because it's not easy. It's a big shift for all of us. So with all that, next Wednesday we will have our first training on a new designated ELD supplementary program is language power. So lots of changes. That's, that's kind of the new thing this year. And by the way, our student led conferences this week is another big change. So far so good. I sent a picture to Dr. Baker of one of the conferences. It's been going well, but lots of change this year. And finally I just wanted to highlight some of our enrichment. Thank you to the LCAP and I guess the voters, Prop 28 for funding the other half of our STEAM teacher. So that's a full time position now. So you can see students here with the yellow boxes in the, I don't know, the middle right I guess of the screen there. They're programming or coding their Lego spike robots. That is very popular. Engaging. Students love going to steam. And we also have a music teacher now funded through Prop 28 and that's been going great as well. We have a great music teacher. And then we've been fortunate as a school community to have a wonderful PTO Unidos that funds dance and a garden program. So students get a really great enrichment program at our school and a great partnership also I would say with Peninsula Covenant Church for PE plus. So they have PE twice a week. So I don't know how I did all my time. But Next up is Ms. Patricia Alcocer who's real, she's wonderful to work with. You have to do it."},{"start":2096880,"end":2097440,"speaker":"D","text":"Yeah."},{"start":2101600,"end":2360640,"speaker":"G","text":"Oh, now you got it. Okay. Good evening everyone. I'm delighted to be able to give you an overview of the school events that are happening on our campus that engage our community, our community partners and creating traditions that are crucial to fostering a sense of community. Community and also help us learn about the different cultures at our school. So some of the photo highlights that we have here, they're highlighting all of the school events and these are only a few. We do have the, the link So I, I hope that you go on there and click. It gives a little bit more insight to our events that are on our campus. So being a Spanish immersion school, language is a huge part of culture. So at our school, we celebrate Dia del Nino and Dia de los Muertos, which are traditional celebrations in Latin America. During our Dia del Nino celebration, which happens in April, we have high school students, we have parents, our community partners volunteering. We have students that are showcasing their talent in our talent show. And then the biggest fundraiser during that day is when Warren and I get to be dunked in the dunk tank. We usually raise a good chunk of change for our outdoor ed and our Columbia field trip. Our annual science fair and steam night has really grown over the last two years. This, this last year that we had it, all of our fifth graders participated in the science fair and our number of third and fourth graders also grew. And it was wonderful because we had high school students coming in and they judged and they gave really good feedback to all the budding scientists. And it just having these students be having access to these experiments and things like that really just grew their pride and just showcase their learning. The steam night was an amazing night. Also with our, with our parents that volunteered and also our collaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb that provided all our lab coats. You can see the young girls with the cotton candy, which was a big hit because they got to see the, the chemical reaction in order to make the cotton candy. So that was very interesting. We had paper rockets that were shooting across the cafeteria. We had dry ice that was, had little mini explosions. So and then our steam teacher, Dave, which really was a big part of that night, he had a station with electricity and all of that. It was just such a successful night. During our steam and science fair night, another wonderful partnership we have is with the San Carlos Children's Theater. This year the production will be Annie. And we've had this partnership for a number of years. Parents and students, they put in countless hours practicing, creating sets, props, costumes, and it really showcases that theater experience for these kids, starting with our kinders that are doing the ensemble, all the way up to our fifth graders that have the, the parts. So those are some of our big, big events that we have. We also have some just community events like our school beautification, family bingo night, family dance night, all of those that are just family friendly events that everyone gets to join and participate in. So this Saturday we have our first big event for our school year, which is Dia de los Muertos. It's on Saturday. So you are all more than welcome to come and join. There's face painting, there's pandulse and chocolate and we have a family that's cooking all the food for us. There's jump houses you can just sign a waiver and you can get into. Also, we'll be painting sugar skulls. We have about 300 sugar skulls ready to go for Saturday that parents have been really working hard to do. So I invite you to come and enjoy Saturday with us. Oh, and we have yes and Dia de los Muertos to the ofrendas. The altars will be up and on full display at our school with most classrooms participating in the altars, if not each individual classroom as a grade level. So I invite you to come and enjoy this wonderful event with us and I will pass it on to Luna."},{"start":2360720,"end":2361760,"speaker":"C","text":"What time is the event?"},{"start":2361840,"end":2363560,"speaker":"G","text":"It starts at 11 to 2."},{"start":2363560,"end":2365520,"speaker":"D","text":"Okay, 11 to 2."},{"start":2365520,"end":2370000,"speaker":"G","text":"So please come. I'm going to pass it to our great community school coordinator, Jose Luna."},{"start":2373530,"end":2694020,"speaker":"I","text":"Thank you, Patty. Good evening everyone. My name is Jose Luna. I'm the community school coordinator at Adelante Selby. So one of our priorities or one of our goals this year is to uplift our student voice and student agency. So one way we're doing that this year is we started the year off by going to every single classroom this year and presenting a kid friendly version of what a community school is and how their voice and what role they play in that. To wrap up that presentation, we conducted a student survey just asking them questions about how they felt when they were on campus, from the classroom to being outside and playing after schools. And we're still kind of diving into those results. We have over little 500 students. So trying to get through all those 500 responses and seeing what they say, it's going to get a bit. But we have completed all the surveys. Now we're going to go through that data and see what the next steps are to really uplift their voice and show those kids that what they're saying really matters to us. It wasn't just to go and present and not really take that into consideration. So just these are some examples of how we encourage our students to be leaders in our campus. The biggest one is the student council. So our third through fifth graders are able to vote two to three reps per classroom to be part of the student council. From then we hold student elections and we create the student cabinet. President, vice president, treasurer and secretary. Fourth and fifth graders can hold those positions, but every third through fifth can vote for Those their first duty this last week was actually they voted for the winner of our Walkathon T shirt. The students were able to enter designs from TK to 5th grade and then the student council were able to vote for the top five. Last Friday, the whole student body was able to vote from those top five to the winners. That right now only Warren and two parents know who won. So we're trying to see who that who won. Oh, then tomorrow we'll find out who won the T shirt contest. But one of their first big civic duties or projects is being part of the peer mediators at our campus. That's it. From our. Our school counselor leads that Vicki Neves and she's going to go through a training for the next month with them. And the goal is that by the first week of December, our students will be out in the yard helping self media with their own classmates. You'll see a picture of the kids. This is from last year on the right hand corner, middle corner. Sorry. Students that have been trained in student council or the peer mediators and two students who are walking the peace path trying to resolve an issue. So the first week of December, our goal is that the new batch of students are ready to be out and mediating within themselves. The GSA club. It's in its second year and it's growing in popularity. Last, I think it was last week or the week before, they had a little lunch break party with the fourth and fifth graders. They had a huge little. They had a huge crowd out there behind them. Also, like Warren mentioned, on Wednesdays our teachers collaborate with Win Eakin. At the top right you'll see a sample of the pedigree. Sorry. So the students frame of reference, they use this to really showcase who they are, what they are, the cultural background, where they come from. And this is a great way to get to know the kids and for the kids to get to know each other. Our kids also love lunchtime activities where they're able to share their voice, share what they think, share their opinion. At the bottom right corner you'll see a picture of the latest one we did maybe about two or three weeks ago. We asked the kids what makes Adelante Adelante Selfia Community School. So it's huge paper of all the kids writing what that meant for them. And I took that back and we're working with Christy over at the Stanford Gardner Center. We research, trying to figure out what the parents think, what the students think and what our staff thinks. So we're collecting all that and that should Come. We're working on a theory of action that should come back and see what their voice is. And where do we lead our work. You'll see a bunch of pictures here from the student council who vote for the spirit dates. Third Friday of every month, we have a different theme. We just had Crazy Sock day last Friday. We had sports day beginning of the year. So then every third Friday, the student body gets to choose a different theme. We also encourage our students to give back to the community and be proud of where they come from. So we last year in April, we hosted a school beautification day. And our students were actually there. And they themselves were the ones that painted the peace pass at our school that they're not using. So they take ownership of that on our campus. And just in the middle picture, bottom over here, we'll see the kids during our talent show. They're able to showcase their talents. Last year was one of the first years. We brought it back. And this last year was way bigger than the year before. So we're hoping that every year more kids are encouraged to come out and show off their hidden talents. And a huge thing on our campus are the morning circles and the community builders. Every classroom tries to start off the day by doing a morning meeting. Right here at the bottom, you'll see Maestro Maria Orozco doing a community circle with her third graders just. Just to build that community within their classrooms so they can feel comfortable with each other. Yeah. This is just a quick glance of our work with the students and how we're pushing them to be leaders at our school. I'm going to pass it back down to Warren. Thank you."},{"start":2694730,"end":2996510,"speaker":"J","text":"Great, thanks. So this last slide is around parent voice and outreach. But we did. I did want to highlight the work that the family center and Jose does, along with Claudia and the community school work. It's such a resource for all of our families, but particularly ones that need more support. Newcomer families can come, come in. They can get access to lots of different things right there at the school. They're very helpful in connecting them. I also wanted to shout out the Partnerships for after school program. It might not feel like parent voice or outreach, but I know our parents really appreciate it. We have over 200 students in Reach. We have 50 students in YMCA. We have 80 students in Siena Youth. And we have a new partner, Casa Circulo, have 20 students over on Middlefield. So this is three quarters of our students that can be in roughly, that can be in after school until 6 o'. Clock. And I also want to Shout out the work at the district level. Michelle Griffith and Enrique in making the programs stronger. Great enrichment, more structure, more engaging for our students. So it's just been a great resource. Of course, you all know since you're on school board, we have our three main parent organizations, Parent teacher organization, school site council. We just elected three new parents and a new teacher. So we're training them. And guess what? We got our SPSA done on time. Thanks for the month earlier timeline this year, you guys. We also have a new ELAC group that was just put in that's for English language parents of English language learner or English as a second language. Unidos is very strong, continues to be very strong. And I really appreciate they're not just fundraising. Right. They're building community and they have a really strong equity lens. So I very much appreciate them. We do a lot of other stuff. I don't know how I'm. I'm on my time. We were timing each other before we did a one one through. There's pictures here of our back to school night in the upper right, which was very well attended. I always like they're so well attended because the classes are full. But Jose's like, we should have the parents sign in. So we had them sign in this year. So we actually had some data. So 87% of the families came to back to school night, which is great. Right over bottom in the middle of the three on the right, pictures on the right, there's Jose and Patty at a cafecito, which is a great informal way to interact with parents. And I know Elisa came out and she was very well received at a cafecito. Below that is Mr. Zuno. He's recruiting families for parenting classes at Familia Zonidas on the lower left here is at a gallery walk which at the end of those integrated units, the parents are invited and students lead them through the classroom to show their learning. So there's a boy there showing off his journal, writing with his Statue of Liberty crown on because it was a government unit. So we have a lot going on. I know you guys see my newsletters and you read them diligently so you kind of know what's going on at the school. I do want to read parts of these two quotes because one is a brand new kindergarten parent, Claudia, who's already become a big parent leader at school. She was figuring out how to handle 200 pounds of chicken for because and she wanted some coolers from the school. So of course, what are you gonna do with 200 pounds of chicken. So that's for Saturday because you guys are coming, right? For dia de los muertos. But she says, I'll just read the middle part because I know I'm gonna go too long. She's saying, descubri que asido fascio navigar contolo personnel. De los padres es asombrosa. That's a good thing. Menkanta cadadilla quevenimos a lascuela itodo los buenos dias y sonrisas qurese vimos de todos. So that's from Claudia. She's a new kinder parent. And then Jessica McCarthy is a fourth grade parent who's volunteered for a number of years at our school and just on a daily basis and school site council and pto. And guess what, Wendy, you hired her this year to be our Tosa long term sub. So she's here on campus every day. So we so appreciate her value. Member of our, of our school community. And we asked her for a quote and she, she says a lot of different things, but in the. We like this, this last part, Right?"},{"start":2996590,"end":2997150,"speaker":"D","text":"Okay."},{"start":2997870,"end":3037470,"speaker":"J","text":"When you walk on campus, you feel welcomed and you feel a part of something.

And that's our presentation. So I would encourage you to come out to the school to see it for yourselves.

So I, I like the way that you explained it and put that in. It made it feel really Real. And so I just want to thank everyone again for all the changes that we're trying to put in place there.

There's such a huge wait list just for, you know, families who already have kids in it. I didn't know that was the year they opened the Selby Spanish immersion.

And so I felt as a parent. Well, great. I already know who the principal is going to be. Right. And so. And just like him, I love his personality. I mean, you always saw him in campus.

Yes, yes. So I think I've got a few of my staff members online. Yeah. But I'm. I'm repping in person. Thank you guys so much for this opportunity. So I'm really excited to share with you Roy Cloud's academic developments, recent school and upcoming events, how we are addressing and enhancing our student voices and ways we're engaging our community. I think it's important to note that many of the items that I'm sharing with you guys this evening are products of the results of our Panorama School survey, some street data, student surveys, staff collaboration and of course, district initiatives. As always, our goal is to continue to strive to meet the needs of all of our students in their academics, social interactions, emotional needs, and to support in the preparation for their next steps in high school and beyond. At Roy Cloud, while we want our students to be prepared for high school, we also want them to find out who their true self is and through ex, do that through exploration and to do so in a safe and inclusive environment. Whitney has been brought up. I'm going to bring her up again. She's incredible. We are so grateful to her partnership, but she came in and did the launch for the pedagogy of confidence, or what we're kind of calling the Equity and Education Framework launch. And as a staff, we brainstormed what we had hoped for our students as Roy Cloud graduates. And I just wanted to share some of the things that our teachers had said across the staff. They came up with such traits that they are Hoping for our graduates to be passionate, to be creative, to be leaders, agents of change, to be confident, upstanders, kind and empowered. And as with many things, we are a work in progress. But I feel with each moment of reflection and turning point in the school year, we get closer to supporting our students to live out those characteristics both in school and out in the larger community. Before we jump in, I want to thank our Roy Cloud community, the teachers, the staff, the parents, the partners and students for the dedication they put into ensuring that our students are well supported, well educated, well equipped to handle any situation, knowing that they have a lot of people in their corner. So with that, we can jump into my academic slide. So I want to say there's a lot of bullet points here. This is actually dialed down before I send it in. I checked in with Adelante Selby to look at their slides and mine was like a point six of all of the things that we're doing at Roy Cloud. And they were like, you might want to like shrink it down and just talk to a few, talk to a few points. And I'm really, it's just because I'm really proud of the programs that we have going on at Roy Cloud. And so a few of the things that I want to talk to to you guys tonight about are some of the newer things, which is with illustrative math. I'm really proud of the teacher's engagement with this new curriculum. New things can present challenges and our teachers are asking really great questions to get to know this curriculum better. All with the intention of supporting their students and ensuring that they are carrying out the scope and sequence of their grades curriculum with fidelity. Our teachers have attended all of the professional development opportunities and in each one they come prepared with new questions, new ideas, and share stories about how the most recent lesson has unfolded in their classroom. I've spent some time with teachers disaggregating data collected from the assessment tool in im. We've looked at how students are accessing the online assessments, if there's any barriers that the students might be experiencing, if the platform is working for the students, if the, if more support is needed, we've created a plan to follow up, to look for patterns and identify Tier 1 universal practices that may serve the students better, all while still engaging full fully with the materials that have been provided to us. There are a few images up here on the slide. Let's see at the top and then the two down there at the bottom right of a first grade, the first grade classroom. They were doing a Lesson on data collection. And I think the, the takeaway from the teacher's perspective was just how great it was that the teacher was the facilitator that was mentioned in the Adelante Selby presentation is that with this new curriculum, the teachers, it's a very inquiry based curriculum where the students are engaging with the materials and the topics on their own and they're trying to make sense of it. And the teachers are just kind of facilitating that conversation. They are engaging in their, in questions, they're pulling some of the quieter voices into the conversation to make sure that everyone's an active participant. And so what's really great about a lot of the things that are embedded into the lessons is that it engages in rigor, but also play. And so that's what we're seeing here with some of this data collection. And then what was also added by this, this teacher that sent, that sent me after the fact was that in their Friday fun, one of the students really, really enjoyed the data collection lesson. So she created her own data collection questionnaire and all that for her classmates and that's her presenting her findings up there. So I thought that that was really cool that, you know, it's lessons like these where we hope that in depth exploration sparks an interest that takes a student down their own path. And we feel that this curriculum is doing that for these students. And then I just want to talk to the assessment piece as well, so to speak to our new assessments this year. We engage with them by securing. So with, especially with our tk Second, we wanted our teachers to be able to have dedicated time with our, with, with each of their students, to be able to conduct the assessments, but also to be able to have quiet time with each of their students, to be able to also collect some observational data as well as the data that they're collecting with the assessments. And so we secured three subs across a couple of days and the teachers were able to kind of step out of the classroom all the while knowing that their, that the learning was continuing in the classroom. And they pulled their students one by one and did their assessments and then were able to just hear in a quieter setting, you know, all, all of the different assessments that they were doing. So the CRLPs, BPST, the fast bridge. And then after all of that was done, you know, I want to really show my appreciation for Maureen McPeak, who is our TK third intervention teacher, for supporting our staff, especially with the initial engagement with this assessment. She was very well knowledgeable already in the CRLP and the bpst. And so any teachers who were feeling a little bit nervous, you know, anything that's new can bring challenges and nervous energy. And she was right there to kind of support them and help them kind of roll out these new assessments and help them by providing suggestions and tips. And then she. She sat with them and went over the data with them and helped them kind of build paths for success for each of these students based on the data that we collected from these assessments. So she was also incredibly knowledgeable with the new Hegarty Phonics, which I just sat in a classroom today. I've seen it a few times, but today it was super fun because they've been doing it for a while and everyone was having a great time. It's very engaging. You know, the. The teacher is sitting there and is in. Is modeling and students are, you know, playing back with the. With the teacher. And it's just. It's a really fun way to engage in phonics. So I'm really grateful for that. That curriculum as well. And then, of course, we have I ready. So it's nice to continue with iready this year. Students are used to the structure, and we finished our meeting with our IREADY rep, which we are also very grateful for, because every time we meet with them, we always learn new things that are helpful to us that we can walk away with in feeling supported and learning about how we can utilize that data to inform our practices and gauge student progress. So we looked at the diagnostic to set goals, and we're really looking forward to the second diagnostic to look for growth patterns. So."},{"start":4306300,"end":4306740,"speaker":"A","text":"Okay."},{"start":4306740,"end":4417160,"speaker":"B","text":"School events. Oh, and some of the links there, just to let you guys know. So we also have an SEL curriculum that is supported by our PTO, but it's called character strong. It's something that is TK through 8th grade in middle school, they engage with our SEL curriculum in homeroom, which is every single day. And then in our elementary school, they engage in them every day at different times of the day, mostly during their morning meetings, though. And then I also linked a staff meeting that we did because I really enjoyed engaging. You know, this is my second year in the district, so last year was my first year. I really enjoyed engaging with the learner framework. And so I took a lot of what we did last year and applied it to some of the things we did at our site. And so that is a link to one of the staff meetings that we did where we did a lesson remix. So we took a lot of the Language from the learner framework and looked at some of our curriculum lessons and how we might be able to revamp them to address all of our student needs. So which, which student voices maybe might be a little quieter in some of these lessons and how might we be able to bring them to the forefront? Let's see, what else do we have here? The two whiteboard activities are from one of Whitney's visits with us. She actually engaged. This is from a fifth grade lesson. She engaged with our fifth graders to help them kind of fine tune and wrap their heads around goal setting. So with that support, students were able to kind of really think deeply and thoughtfully about the types of goals they want to set for themselves this year for the student led goal setting that they are engaging in in this week."},{"start":4418600,"end":4419000,"speaker":"A","text":"Yeah."},{"start":4419000,"end":4555650,"speaker":"B","text":"And then we are grateful to, to our pto. Our PTO provides us with so many programs and last year through the, our funding need, um, we raised money to give our library a lift, as we're calling it. Um, and in that we are looking to provide more, um, diverse literature in our libraries. We are bringing in more authors to come and speak to our students. And we also were able to secure a license with Book Break, which gives us access to really, really amazing authors where teachers can engage with them. It's all virtual and so we just schedule it out and these authors zoom into our classrooms and we get to hear about their craft and their passions and hopefully spark some passions with our students. And then we have some other things there as well. Lots of things. We just got our language power, which we're really excited for, that we'll be engaging in and learning more about and in November pd, so really looking great there. And then we also secured an executive functioning curriculum for sixth grade. We were noticing that some of our sixth graders, when they're transitioning from elementary into middle school school could use a little support and just, you know, what is middle school and how do we, you know, how do we transition from class to class and how do we organize all of our classes and communicate with our teachers and things like that. And so we're using the SMARTS curriculum to kind of support that and support our teachers there. And then with the support of our PTO and the district, we were able to secure a humanities Spanish course for seventh and eighth grade this year, which we are very excited about. It is amazing. So thank you guys so, so much for that support. And then I also just linked my, one of my principal copies copies where I went over those new assessments just to kind of show you what communication I provided to the parents so they knew what assessments we were engaging with with their children and what kind of data would be able to get to help help their children, you know, move forward in their academics. Okay, now we can move forward."},{"start":4555650,"end":4566210,"speaker":"C","text":"Just real quick, Melissa. The slide deck attached to the agenda does not have these links.

So we Roy Cloud has a lot and so I just wanted to go over just a few of them. Our school events are designed to encourage community building and to develop school pride. Our school events range from large scale community events to small classroom size events organized by teachers. In these photo photos, you'll see students preparing for a presentation in science where they learned about solids and liquids and then presented their investigation findings to peers and other staff members invited to attend. So an example of kind of like what a smaller event might look like. But then we also have our annual jogathon put on by our PTO to raise money for our school. You'll see our mascot boom there. So we are the Thunderbolts. Lots of people ask, what is a thunderbolt? Because we have. We are. We hear lightning bolts. That's a Thunderbolt. We have a photo of our incredible Mix Washburn orchestrating the music performance last year just to kind of show you. So Mix Washburn is at Roy Cloud right now. They are our second through eighth grade music teacher. However, they are rotating through our TK through first as well just to get exposure into musicology. And we already have two concerts planned, so we will invite. We're so excited. It's going to be amazing. So we will share that with you guys and invite you to our concerts. And in addition to the weekly, you know, exposure to musicology that our second through eighth graders, our second through fifth graders really get, our middle schoolers have quite a few options in to engage in some more advanced music. So our sixth graders, with this being a new music program, they didn't get a lot of the early instrumental that Mix Washburn is working on with our fifth graders. So they have opened up a morning option for sixth graders to be able to engage in some introductory instrumental practice so that they can get that kind of the basics of that. And then of course, we have our enrichment, that is our advanced orchestra and our advanced band. Let's see, what else do we have? Oh, we like to bring in a lot of assemblies, but when we bring in our assemblies, we like them to be with purpose. So we have a BMX assembly that we were bringing back this year. We just wanted to show you what it looks like that it's not just a BMX show, it's a BMX show that doubles as an empowering anti bullying campaign. So this was a really great experience. It grabbed the students attention with the tricks and bike skills while also talking about being a team, being an active upstander, and being able to help your community by choosing kindness. It was really great. We have a photo down at the bottom of one of our specialized learning centers who put on a plague, the wizard of Oz for our families and for their third through fifth grade classes. It was incredible. It was. To say it was incredible, I think was an understatement. It was like, it was just such a wonderful experience to share in this with these students and to see them shine on stage and all the budding actors and actresses. And then we have, let's see, we also have our. Down at the bottom left, we have a group of middle schoolers who took our SEL curriculum. So character strong in character strong. They have a really rigorous conflict resolution protocol process or the steps that are embedded that we like to practice. And so they took those steps and they turned it into a mural for us. And so students go over there and they can follow the steps in talking out a problem or an issue that they're having with a peer. Other photos depict our buddy Day, which you guys have a link to a video. It is very long, but it's very cute. It's very sweet. It really shows the student leadership of our older students and how they're engag with our younger community and just how enthralled our younger community is with our older students. And let's see, we have our ASB rallies. Our ASB is amazing. And finally"},{"start":4846110,"end":4846830,"speaker":"G","text":"we have."},{"start":4846910,"end":5075500,"speaker":"B","text":"Oh, the other link that I added there, which is a get to know, know you Roy Cloud video. It was a parent event that I hosted back in December where I outlined specific things each grade level does and what our different academic programs look like from elementary to middle school. This came as a result of feedback from families who were wondering about their child's academic path and didn't know kind of what we offered from each grade to grade or like in the different upper grades, mainly because they were either new families or because their oldest child was in some of the younger grades. And so just reading that feedback, I thought I can, I can talk about what we got going on in all the grades. And so I presented that and all of the great events that were coming school wide as well as what they can look forward to when there's, when their child evolves into the different grades. So the other thing I wanted to add there as well is that little, small little rectangle where it says, you made it something new that we're trying this year. You know, students come in when they're tardy. We don't know why they are. You know, we're just happy that they're there. We know that, you know, it could have been a rushed morning or something. And so we just want them to know like, hey, you're here. It's awesome. So they're going to get a little tag like that that just says we're so happy you're here. So that's, that's our school events. And then the next slide, our student voice. So this is where, click one more time, it'll pop up all those bullet points. There you go. I dialed it down. So one of the people that I asked to be here but is homesick right now is our academic counselor, Joanne Ongo. And the reason why I asked her to be here is because she really is instrumental in lifting our student voices. And so I'm going to speak to a few of the things that she has implemented this year at. So let me just find where, where I put. Okay. So one of the first things that I wanted to talk about was in that bottom corner where it says the Roy Cloud 2324 goals. She started the year by hanging out at each recess and lunch to talk to each grade span of students about goal setting and how it's helpful. From there, students talked with each other about goals they wanted to set for themselves and listed them out on the yellow paper. And this poster is hanging up in the library for students to revisit their goals. This was a great introduction into the work that they were going to engage in. Drafting their goals with their teachers and parents and presenting those this week in the student led goal setting conferences. Not only has Joanne cultivated the idea of progress over perfection, but she also has worked hard to establish relationships with students. Another thing that she did this year was she, she scheduled time with each grade level to do what's called minute meeting where she met with each kid and just got to know them and you know, their interests and all of that. And I just thought that was really great. And she's sharing that data with us so we can get to know our students on another level. In doing this, you know, she's, she's able to establish herself as an additional adult on campus and who cares for the students as well. And yeah, so Joanne and Julia Robinson, who is our mental health counselor, they are such a solid team and we are so grateful to them for the love and support that they give our kids. Our ASB is also growing immensely into what it truly means to be student leaders. We're taking our representatives to a few events this year to learn more about leadership and how to be an active participant in bringing forth positivity and an inclusive environment. They're the ones that, they lead our rallies, they lead our BOLT award assemblies every Thursday."},{"start":5076540,"end":5076780,"speaker":"G","text":"They."},{"start":5077260,"end":5128240,"speaker":"B","text":"They're going to help me with the Halloween parade that we have coming up.

In addition to this, students are helping out with things like adaptive PE and then also creating. Currently they're creating a Halloween safety video for our elementary students. And so next Monday they're going to go into the elementary classes and they're going to present what it means to be safe in neighborhoods and things like that. And. And then we're also, you know, going to be out supporting the greater community, you know, up the peninsula on field trips and things like that."},{"start":5128390,"end":5128630,"speaker":"C","text":"That."},{"start":5129910,"end":5452870,"speaker":"B","text":"So how do we know that these are things that student wants? Students. The students want is through surveys. We ask our students to be open and honest with us. We heard that some of our scholars are, you know, sometimes struggling with choosing kindness with peers. And so because of that, we brought forward the safe school ambassadors last year, which we will be continuing this year. And we'll be bringing on our new 6th graders who are interested in that. And that whole program is about show or helping peers navigate bullying in an effort to improve our school climate. We're also planning a unity day this year in hopes to bring our scholar community closer as we build empathy and understanding, which in turn could lead to kinder interact interactions. And we are grateful to the district for helping us secure that as well. And then we also have, in addition to. So we've. We've had a middle school GSA club that meets on, on Fridays. No, sorry, Wednesdays at lunch. And now we have one that's opening up with our 4th and 5th graders. So we have 4th through 8th grade GSA that we call Rainbow Cloud. And they meet at lunch. Yeah, yeah, we get T shirts. So. And so they meet on Wednesdays and Fridays and Mix Washburn is the teacher that oversees that. And they're incredible. So that's just a little bit about our student voice, but something that we're really, really trying to put a lot of effort towards. Okay, so parent outreach, I think. Yeah, we're almost there. Okay, so parent outreach, Roy Cloud and our parents are a tight union. We work really closely with our pto and when I say pto, you know, yes, we have our officers, but it's all of our parents. It's, it's the entire community. And so what we have here is, you know, I engage with our communities indirectly and I guess a little directly through our, my weekly newsletters. We also did a volunteer chaperone training just because I want to front load, you know, what does it mean to be a volunteer and a chaperone on a field trip or in the, in the classroom and, you know, remove any barriers that there might be for someone to, to volunteer. We promote the district's volunteer process to make sure that everyone knows what it, what, what you need to do in order to get, to get that volunteer clearance. We really want our parents to volunteer, so we push that out as much as we can. We try to personalize a lot of our messaging and our invitations as much as we can. We engage with our families through school site council and in that we have our ELAC embedded in school site council. We engage in surveys and questionnaires just to make sure that our parent voices are heard. Sometimes it's hard for them, you know, to, to stop by and talk. So, you know, just giving them a survey or a questionnaire, just say, hey, how's it going? Let us know. And you know, we read that and make some changes this past year based on survey feedback. We heard that, you know, it would be really great. We do do kindergarten play dates over the summer that we do them for the entire school. So this year we did T.K. kinder first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and then we did a sixth grade hangout because we don't want to call middle school play dates. We're going to call them hangouts. So we did that. We had a great, we had a great turnout. Something that we will continue. It was a really great way for us to build community right before we started school. You know, there's a lot of nervous energy that comes before stepping into the classroom on that first day. And then a lot of the new families that have registered, you know, it's just getting to know that and make that connection, which was really great. Let's see. We also have a new PTO position where their main job and goal is to bring families together. And so we're trying to build a buddy program where we are connecting new families with returning families to make sure that our new families are feeling supported. So if they can't, you know, get. Get to me for any chance or if they see something in my newsletter and they just need someone like just a quick question, they can, you know, reach out to their buddy family and, and ask that quick question just to build that connection and. Yeah, so got a lot going on. We have a lot of events. These are some pictures from our latest fall fest that. That just happened where we didn't do a dunk tank this year. That was last year. I was in that. This year they had a contraption where you would throw a ball and a water. Giant water balloon would fall on your head. So that's. That was in place of the dunk tank this year. Still walked away really wet. But. So, yeah, again, I'm just. I'm so. I'm so happy to be a part of this district. I know this is my second year. I'm so proud to be the Roy Cloud principal. And one of the things that I really enjoyed last year in doing the SPSA reports and all of that is I got to hear from the. What the other schools were doing and I got to collect some great ideas. I've already heard from Adelante Selvia about some of the wonderful things that they're doing. And so, you know, it's."},{"start":5452950,"end":5453430,"speaker":"H","text":"It's."},{"start":5453510,"end":5461070,"speaker":"B","text":"It's a community not just within a school, but in an entire district.

I was going to comment on the links, but Janet beat me to. It was really encouraging to hear some of the specific comments about the new curriculums being introduced. So for instance, hearing that things were going well with Heggar and that that was being found to be engaging, those kind of early signals are really helpful for us because we know we're putting a lot of change on you all. And just hearing hopefully it's not all just change for changes sake, some of the change is actually landing well. So that's really helpful and encouraging. Really good to also hear, for instance, the nuance around Iready that it's not just as a reminder that it's not just test scores, which is how most of the parents in the district are going to interact with I Ready, but they're providing these richer services to us that help make them actionable. That would be. That's great to hear about. I'm excited to hear more detail about, like, how the district is taking action based on I Ready and how I Ready the company is helping us."},{"start":5524880,"end":5525240,"speaker":"D","text":"So."},{"start":5525320,"end":5572230,"speaker":"F","text":"So I think that's great. The Linked movie had a pretty hilarious story by Philip about when I'm 100 years old, it will be crazy and he's going to drink pina coladas at a bar. I thought that was great. I actually may have gone off with Dall E3 to make an illustration. I'll share with you later. I love the Buddy family concept. If that's working well at this school, I'd love to see if maybe other schools can adopt that programmatically in partnership with their PPOs. So that may be something we want to think about because just, you know, hey, this is how to navigate the school. Getting that from another family seems like a terrific resource. So like, that may be something we want to. We want to copy paste. So bravo on pioneering that. So very cool.

I mean, I really love all the different new programs you've brought and really just kind of highlighting some of the things that have been going on for a while. I'm not going to repeat what you said because I, I had the same notes. So the. So anyway, ditto on what he just said. But I also, I'm not sure. I know I went to a couple of events last year and I'm not sure if I went to Fall Fest or towards the end of the year because I think I did see you in a dunk tank, so maybe I did. So I missed it this year. Darn it next year I'll have to make sure I get that on my calendar. I know that you have a very active dad's club as well, which is great that you bring in the dads to really help. You've always had a very, you know, Roy Cloud has always had a very strong parent community and it sounds like it continues to. To really support the whole school. So thanks. Loved hearing about the asb. I know you have a very strong student program and there, you know, a lot of student voice going on and student activities led. And then thanks for highlighting the, the Rainbow Cloud? Is that what it's called? Yeah. I love it. And I love that you're adding some grades and seeing the need there and really providing for some of our students who want to be part of a gsa. So thank you.

It sounds like things are going really well there. I really appreciated how you thanked all the additional staff that's there helping the classroom teachers. First of all, I'm going to thank Whitney for all the work that she does. She got mentioned in that Alante Selby presentation as well. I've seen her in the, you know, in, in these trainings with, with teachers and supporting them. And it's, it is truly remarkable. But also Maureen and Joanne and the additional people that are helping or both adopting the new curriculum, but also supporting students when they need help and staff when they need the additional help. So I know we're doing this at a lot of our, all of our school sites. I hope they're all getting additional instructional assistance and health counselors. So, yes, thank you.

Especially on the Buddy family again. And I do hope that as principals, when you guys get together, you talk about and collaborate with what's working for your schools and that perhaps it could work for theirs too. So I think it's great because it Makes families feel welcome. You have the connection, the network, and you don't feel as lonely, I think. And then I want to say you mentioned something about the middle school transition. So I actually thought since you were, or now A K or TK8, that obviously students were like, I'm just transitioning. But it's actually nice that you guys explained to them you're still in a school, but you're now moving on to the middle school. So I thought it was just going to be an easy transition. And then I just wanted to point out, obviously, you talked about kindness quite a few times and talked about bullying, especially with everything going on in the world. So I think getting kids ready, yes, on the academic piece, but we also have to think of the human piece because, again, we are racing our future generation of civilians or, you know, people around our community and our world. So thank you. Thank you very much."},{"start":5994290,"end":6003410,"speaker":"C","text":"One thing I forgot to add. I know you said you were getting some ideas from Warren's presentation.

I was happy to, you know, that you were selected to be the principal of Roy Cloud. And I'm going to take a little different detour. You were already copied on an email that I wrote a parent, so you know about it. So I'm going to read something from this parent which gives relevance to the type of character trait that Melissa has as. As a principal at the school site. There are some students that, you know, have some challenges and. And Melissa does a great job of working with the student, working with the parents, thinking very positive about it all the time. And so I'm going to read a portion of this, and where I blank out, it's because there's a child's name there. Okay. I'm not reading the whole thing. I'm reading the parts that I thought were very, very special, and I think I reiterated them to the mom. The email that we were copied on, so this is from a parent at Roy Cloud. It says, each interaction with Ms. Bowden as it relates to leaves me believing certain people are born to be educators. She is truly one of them. She believes in each child, advocates for each child, genuinely wants the best for each child, and brings a positive energy to the situation and mind you these situations are a little troubling from my seat. As a parent of a child who is experiencing difficulties, she has always been empathetic too. I see the care and concern when she interacts with my child and truly wants my child to succeed. No matter the circumstances, whatever happens in my child's situation, I will always reflect and appreciate the kindness she demonstrates to my child and my family. If she is doing this for one child, I can almost guarantee she is doing it for the entire student body. I thought you should know what a tremendous asset she is to Roy Clark. And we've been working closely in regarding to some issues and to get this from a parent where there is a situation which Melissa has been very close to, not only this year, but last year when we were talking about this family. You've done an amazing job with bringing all your tools of the trade to the forefront with all your families at Roy Cloud. And I'm truly appreciative for that. I cannot tell you how many times that her parent community has said what a good choice this was. And. And so for that, I applaud you. I also want to applaud you for something else that you have been doing. And she sits down with teachers in this lesson plan, goes in and models lessons and they have conversations. So thank you so much for doing that. It's the true sense of an instructional leader at a school site. And you definitely are the instructional leader at White Cloud. And thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything that you're doing. I really appreciate it."},{"start":6217200,"end":6229570,"speaker":"B","text":"Thank you. Thank you all so much.

Yes, yes, that's right."},{"start":6758260,"end":6759100,"speaker":"D","text":"It was the last one."},{"start":6759340,"end":6793950,"speaker":"A","text":"Yeah. So. And I didn't, I didn't write anything else other than really quick before the meeting because I always forget. But again, I, I'm honored to be part of the Urban City Together committee. And again, thanks to Janet for stepping down and allowing me to join. So it was great. Again, the partnerships that they're building, everything that they're doing for our community is just awesome. And I don't know if you want to say anything else because again, I didn't write all this stuff."},{"start":6793950,"end":6795910,"speaker":"B","text":"I think because we just had the presentation."},{"start":6797600,"end":6797760,"speaker":"A","text":"Yeah."},{"start":6797760,"end":6799240,"speaker":"B","text":"I mean they concentrated on the PACE"},{"start":6799240,"end":6803000,"speaker":"H","text":"program and a few other collaboratives. But I think you just heard about"},{"start":6803000,"end":6829890,"speaker":"A","text":"some of that right at the, when he came to, I thought it was a good, another good meaning. Yeah, yeah. Lots going on for sure. And then the other thing that I Participated as well as Dr. Baker was our last October 13th Hispanic Heritage Month speaker series. Um, that was a panel of. Of all high school students from La Honda Pescadero, all the way down to Jefferson Union High School District, San Mateo,"},{"start":6829890,"end":6832970,"speaker":"D","text":"Sequoia, and Jose Cabrillo."},{"start":6832970,"end":6963380,"speaker":"A","text":"Cabrillo. And so it was a group of five girls, I believe, all girls, for whatever reason, maybe just the boys didn't sign up. And one of the things that kind of made me feel a little, you know, taking deep breaths. And a lot of teachers and superintendents, assistant soups were there. And so they actually said they would take back and revisit some of the things. All the girls that kind of had in common was they all want to go to college, but have some barriers. They will apply for four years, but perhaps go to a community college. Again, community college is free, so that would be a plus. And so a lot of the information that they talked about was being raised by some of them single parents. And so that makes it even harder too. It was actually really nice to hear from them. And then we had another speaker, Professor Yola. I forget how you pronounce his last name. John from Skyline. And he talked about how he incorporates with his curriculum low writing, which was very interesting. And he's actually getting his doctorate in his dissertation, talks about low writing. And he explained to us how he started getting involved with lowriders and his interest since he was 6 years old. And so it's very. I mean. And maybe you could elaborate a little more. I just. I. I thought it was great. I. You know, and a lot of the times what he explained is the perception of people and lowriding is that. That we tend to think that it was like the gangsters. And it's not necessarily that they are. They're just like old cars. And so he talked about how he built his own car. Like he bought a car and actually took the chainsaw and took the inside of it out and then just built. So it was. It was nice. And then I attended the McKinley Sumbathon. I'm a little out of shape at this time, but I. I went there for an hour, not for the two, but it was so nice to see all the ladies participating. And so that was great. So, yeah."},{"start":6963940,"end":6964340,"speaker":"C","text":"Yeah."},{"start":6964340,"end":7000230,"speaker":"A","text":"So that's it for me. Was that parents or students? It was. Well, there was a few students, but it was mainly parents. And so the lady that did the class is actually a parent at McKen and she works for Pal, so she does the Zumbas at PAL every day. And so she Kept on inviting me and so I'm like, one of those days. And so I'm like, I need to go and support McKenley. And so it was a fundraiser racer for their Yosemite, I believe. I, I forget. And so it was great. I. I guess so. That was great. So thank you."},{"start":7001190,"end":7035200,"speaker":"D","text":"So I think everything was covered. The only thing that wanted to make sure that you're all aware of and to remember is that next week on. I talked to Peter Ingram and he has put together kind of an agenda for us for next week on Thursday at 6 o'. Clock. And so we are getting some slides together ourselves, the timeline. And then I'm getting some talking points as you open up the study session for next week. So just wanted to make sure that, you know, we're all on that."},{"start":7035520,"end":7036720,"speaker":"F","text":"Did you Zumba?"},{"start":7037040,"end":7082490,"speaker":"D","text":"No, I did not. Zumba. I'm sorry, that was on Saturday. You went to that, right? The piece that we went to, what was very interesting with those five young ladies. One of them started at Taft with Michelle years ago, when Michelle was there, and she is now a senior at Sequoia. She's the one that is a single mom. Mom has five. She's one of five. And I thought I wanted to see. Well, where else did she go? She goes, well, from here I went to Sacramento, she said, but now we're back. So she only went there for kindergarten, but very much interested in getting into a four year college and does have the grades. But again, it's the financial piece. So your previous teacher, when you were in."},{"start":7082640,"end":7082880,"speaker":"F","text":"Me."},{"start":7083600,"end":7083960,"speaker":"I","text":"Yeah."},{"start":7083960,"end":7141080,"speaker":"D","text":"When you were at Sequoia. When she, she's at Sequoia. She brought her. She brought her, yeah. So it's very interesting to listen to their aspirations and their goals and. Very articulate, very articulate to the point where 1. Because their parents, some of them. Their parent. I think all their parents were there, some of their siblings. One got really emotional. So I have. She said and she had to switch to span, you know, and, and to say, you know, her brother is actually, I guess the first one to go to college and he's at nyu. So she has a pathway. But it was really interesting to listen to their, their journeys and where they are, where they've been and where they are now. And I thought I heard maybe with the exception of one, all the. They're. They're DACA kids, except for one."},{"start":7142120,"end":7147480,"speaker":"A","text":"I want to say one of them was. But I don't know that all the other ones."},{"start":7147720,"end":7238450,"speaker":"D","text":"Okay, all right, okay, okay. Because I. Because I know when we Were listening, Amy. God, he's got last name Olver, who's a superintendent at Leanda Pescadero was saying, well, they're DACA students. So there, there are these other avenues for the finances for them. So that's what she state a while to talk to some of them to make sure that they knew about that, to go in that direction. So. But it was very interesting to listen to their stories, you know, them moving forward. And the other piece about the professor. The professor incorporates this whole lowrider phenomenon into his coursework and how they're not gangsters. It's a family. It's really a family and a way to embrace one another's culture and the way that one lives, but also to support one another not only but mentally, but also if there was a need for some assistance, whether it be with. With. With some rent or need because there's an emergency in the family, you gather around your, your support system and this was, this is their support system. So he wanted to take away that stigma of it being something of, you know, drugs and alcohol and all that business. So I think he's was very well spoken himself."},{"start":7238530,"end":7238970,"speaker":"A","text":"Yeah."},{"start":7238970,"end":7239490,"speaker":"D","text":"So great,"},{"start":7244940,"end":7281950,"speaker":"A","text":"Thank you.

No questions either. Thank you very much. Thank you, Rick. And your department.

We had Martin go out and Martin says it's not on our school property. So anyway, I'm just kind of going around and around, but maybe I'll try to go over there and take a look myself. But anyway, we think it's city property, but so you might hear something about it."},{"start":7316670,"end":7319200,"speaker":"D","text":"Yeah, I talked to Martin again tonight. This is."},{"start":7319200,"end":7327120,"speaker":"H","text":"It's not on our school property. Yeah.
