E7. (Discussion) A-G Completion Improvement Grant Plan

Summary

SRCS is applying for a grant for $1.3M to use over the next three years to improve A-G Completion rates. A quick review of the data from last year’s graduation class makes clear the need to address the issues of graduation and completion rates.

The application is due April 1, 2022. A report to the State Superintendent of Public Instruction is required by December 31, 2023, detailing metrics for measuring the impact on the A-G competition rate.

This grant requires an action plan and evaluation metrics. Many of the mentioned items on this list are in the LCAP. Switching funding sources to free up resources is welcome, however it is unclear if that is the intent, or if efforts will be increased.

SRTA requests some transparency around the decision making process for utilizing these funds. Can SRCS share the data that is motivating these specific chosen actions, and explain the expected impact on metrics from them? Where can details around these action plans be found?

SRTA members can provide substantial resources for these efforts. They await an invitation to participate in an interactive and impactful way.

F. CONSENT ITEMS

F.5. Approval of Contracts

Summary

#	Provider	Cost	Description
Elementary
1	Carla Barber	$6,163	The garden at Proctor will provide a viable learning environment for the students, including developing and facilitating standards based curriculum and maintaining the garden.
Secondary
2	Brian R. Martins	$1,200	From California Poets in the Classroom, Mr. Martens will teach Comstock students to create their own poems and assist them to share with their class.

Total value of contracts = $7,362.50

Revised Extra Duty Salary Schedule

The contract for Brian R Martens appears incomplete as the responsibilities and duties sections are blank.

There was a contract approved on January 12th with Maxim Healthcare Staffing for Administrative Assistants for sites at $45/hour plus agency costs. When will these people be on sites to assist our Site Administrators?

F6. Approval of Superintendent’s Final Decision of Reclassifications for CSEA 75 Administrative Assistant-Middle School, Budget Technician, Middle School Technician-Health Tech, Human Resources Recruiting Technician, Library Technician II, Account Clerk III, Senior Secretary, Typist Clerk IV, Noon/Yard Duty, Child Care Assistant and Child Care Lead

Summary

CSEA employees can create an application for reclassification and then meet with a review panel. The panel recommended six of the eleven reclassification requests. The superintendent decided that ten of the job titles did not show evidence of significant new job duties that had been added to the current job descriptions, and there had not been a significant increase in responsibilities added to the positions. In short, that increased workload is not a basis for reclassification. Furthermore it is stated that reclassification decisions cannot be appealed.

There is an urgent need to improve the compensation for our CSEA 75 workforce. SRCS cannot function without these people and positions. It is hard on morale when employees go the extra mile to present their case as to why they deserve reclassification to a higher pay rate and their presentation to a panel earns a recommendation, yet the reclassifications are denied.

SRTA stands united with CSEA 75 in opposing these reclassification denials. We are in a precarious position as we can not fill many open positions. Appreciating and supporting whom we have is the first step in retaining employees. This positivity is the strongest recruitment tool available to us. Denying these reclassifications goes against these best practices.

Convening a panel and then dismissing their work does not build confidence in the process. This will naturally diminish willingness to sit on an ineffective panel.

Across the district, workload is a consideration for classification. There is one job description for Principals. However, there is an implicit understanding that the workload from elementary to high school is different, and thus the placement on the pay schedule is differentiated. The same implicit understanding and differentiation should be applied to the CSEA positions.

F7. Approval of Power Independent, Automatic Failover, and Load Balancing Solution for the new Dark Fiber Wide Area Network (WAN)

Resumen de Contratos

Contratos

El contrato de Brian R Martens parece incompleto ya que las secciones de responsabilidades y deberes están en blanco.

Hubo un contrato aprobado el 12 de enero con Maxim Healthcare Staffing para asistentes administrativos para sitios a $45/hora más costos de agencia. ¿Cuándo estarán estas personas en los sitios para ayudar a nuestros administradores del sitio?

¿Podría SRCS ampliar la sección de contratos de la agenda de la Mesa Directiva para compartir los resultados de su revisión de las métricas de contratos anteriores a medida que se renuevan?

F6. Aprobación de la decisión final del superintendente de reclasificaciones para CSEA 75 Asistente administrativo de escuela intermedia, técnico de presupuesto, técnico de escuela intermedia de tecnología de la salud, técnico de reclutamiento de recursos humanos, técnico de biblioteca II, empleado de cuentas III, secretario senior, mecanógrafo IV, servicio de mediodía/patio , asistente de cuidado infantil y líder de cuidado infantil

Resumen

Los empleados de CSEA pueden crear una solicitud de reclasificación y luego reunirse con un panel de revisión. El panel recomendó seis de las once solicitudes de reclasificación. El superintendente decidió que diez de los títulos de trabajo no mostraban evidencia de nuevos deberes de trabajo significativos que se habían agregado a las descripciones de trabajo actuales, y no había habido un aumento significativo en las responsabilidades agregadas a los puestos. En resumen, ese aumento de la carga de trabajo no es una base para la reclasificación. Además, se establece que las decisiones de reclasificación son inapelables.

Lista revisada de salarios de trabajo extra

Existe una necesidad urgente de mejorar la compensación de nuestra fuerza laboral CSEA 75. SRCS no puede funcionar sin estas personas y posiciones. Es difícil para la moral cuando los empleados hacen un esfuerzo adicional para presentar su caso de por qué merecen la reclasificación a una tasa de pago más alta y su presentación ante un panel obtiene una recomendación, pero las reclasificaciones son denegadas.

SRTA se une a CSEA 75 para oponerse a estas denegaciones de reclasificación. Estamos en una posición precaria ya que no podemos cubrir muchos puestos vacantes. Apreciar y apoyar a quienes tenemos es el primer paso para retener a los empleados. Esta positividad es la herramienta de reclutamiento más fuerte disponible para nosotros. Negar estas reclasificaciones va en contra de estas mejores prácticas.

Convocar un panel y luego despedir su trabajo no genera confianza en el proceso. Esto naturalmente disminuirá la voluntad de sentarse en un panel ineficaz.

En todo el distrito, la carga de trabajo es una consideración para la clasificación. Hay una descripción de trabajo para los directores. Sin embargo, existe un entendimiento implícito de que la carga de trabajo de la escuela primaria a la secundaria es diferente y, por lo tanto, la ubicación en el plan de pago es diferente. El mismo entendimiento implícito y diferenciación debe aplicarse a las posiciones de la CSEA.

C.9. Public Comment on Non Agenda Items

E. DISCUSSION / ACTION ITEMS

E.1. (Action) Public Board Meetings Via Teleconference per AB 361

The Board will consider the continuance of conducting public meetings virtually

E.2. (Action) Resolution for March as Women’s History Month

Teachers are encouraged to celebrate Women’s History Month with their students. Helpful resource links can be found at https://womenshistorymonth.gov/for-teachers/

E.3. (Action) Resolution for Arts Education Month

SRTA commends our members who ensure students are receiving Arts Education!

At a prior board meeting there was a request for data demonstrating how art education in our district impacts students. SRCS is committed to music in our schools, with dedicated specialist teachers working with our elementary students. Currently the major focus is on the Music Blitz program to ensure all 4th, 5th and 6th grade students have weekly instrument instruction.

E.4. (Action) COVID Updates Prevention Program (CPP) & COVID-19 Handbook Revisions

Summary

There have been new Emergency Temporary Standards (ETS) and new CAL/OSHA requirements that merit an update to the CPP.

With lifting of requirements, a decision about school masking is expected by the end of the month.

SRCS pool testing will be every other week starting in March.

OSHA is requiring that staff testing be monitored by trained personnel.

SRTA looks forward to negotiating around these changes to our working conditions.

E.5 (Action) Resolution No. 2021/22-34 to Select Adjusted Trustee Area Map

Summary

The Board will consider approval of Resolution No. 2021/22-34 addressing required adjustments to the SRCS Trustee Area Map after the release of the 2020 Federal Census Data.

Census Data Impact Presentation

The board must choose a map at this meeting to meet deadline requirements.

E6. (Discussion) Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) Mid-Year Report

Summary

Assembly Bill 130 requires LEAs to present an update on the Annual Update to the 2021–22 LCAP and Budget Overview on or before February 28, 2022.

2021-22 SRCS Elementary and Secondary LCAP.pdf

SRCS Mid-Year LCAP Report (English)

SRCS Mid-Year LCAP Report (Español)
Charter Schools Mid-Year LCAP Report (English)

Charter Schools Mid-Year LCAP Report (Español)

SRTA hopes the presentation will clarify if the updates are revised budgets based on current spending trends, or if they are an accounting of the funds spent to date. Either is disturbing. Several items have significantly larger values in the update. 35% (24) of the 68 Action items show no spending, or an adjusted budget of $0. The metrics provided are concerning. Although many metrics are not included, most of those included show significant decline from the baselines set in the LCAP. SRTA contends that there are too many moving pieces in this LCAP to succeed with all of them, especially at this time. We hope to partner with the district to forge a more focused and effective LCAP.

The process used to create this mid year update did not include bargaining units. We are almost to the fourth quarter, and no plans or timeline for reviewing and updating the annual LCAP have been provided.

E7. (Action) Approval of 2021-22 Fiscal Stabilization Plan (FSP-P1): Specific Actions for the FY 2021-22 2nd Interim Report

Summary

The Board will consider approval of the Superintendent’s recommendations for revenue enhancements and expenditure reductions for the Fiscal Stabilization Plan – Part 1 for inclusion in the 2021-22 Second Interim Report.

Plan

The big items that are moving SRCS to a positive certification are

$17M additional expected in state funding
$4.6 M of expenses transferred from the general fund to Covid and Esser funds
$256,000 the elimination of two positions, a currently unfilled Math Coordinator and .8 unfilled COSA (Counselor on Special Assignment.)
$300,000 from a refund and expected savings from a future contract
$75,000 increasing child care fees

SRTA applauds the restructuring of payment for ongoing expenses. The absence of the demand for new programs with new monies is refreshing.

SRTA does note that the current plan does call for the elimination of 50 positions for the 2023-2024 school year. While this has been a lingering item, it has been repetitively avoided. We all hope this will again be the case. Keeping our workforce intact was clearly a priority in this plan. This seems wise on many fronts. Attracting and retaining is difficult enough without dismissing employees. Morale would be devastated by a mass layoff. Currently nearly 80 teachers are 1.2FTE, and many teachers are collecting large payment for overages because they are teaching more students than allowed in the contract. As we await the refinement of the new vision for ISP and the possibility of creating an online school SRTA insists that we move toward more fair and sustainable practices for students and educators.

F. CONSENT ITEMS

F.2. Approval of Personnel Transactions

EdJoin shows a total of 120 current postings for 248 job vacancies for SRCS, 10 more than last meeting. 19 of these are coaching positions. There are 50 certificated openings (the same as last meeting), and thirteen certificated management openings (11 more than last meeting.) There are 183 current classified openings (one less than last meeting), and two classified management positions (the same as the last meeting.)

SRTA welcomes three certificated new hires: Jennifer Freese (CCLA), Selamawit Bariamichael (SRHS) and Lauren Martin (EAHS).

SRTA congratulates the following members who have noticed their future retirements: Debbie Crapeau (LBES), Marlena Hirsch (PHS), Donna Holmes (MHS), Edward Locker (ABES), Dennis Miller (MHS) and Steven Salkovics (MHS). Thank you for your combined 146 years of service to our students!

SRTA sends our fond farewells to those resigning at the end of the year: Lila Burke (SRHS), Brian Friedman (RHS), Mohamed Teieb (FACS), Chandra Van Winkle (BHES) and Page Willson (PHS). You take 15 combined years of service and experience with you. We wish you all the best in your future endeavors.

There are five classified new hires. This month there is notice of two resignations and two classified retirements. They leave taking 53.5 years of institutional knowledge with them.

There is one supervisory retirement, after 19 years of service to our students and staff.

F.5. Approval of Contracts

Summary

#	Provider	Cost	Description
District
1	PQBids	$12,500	prequalifies potential contractors for public works projects by using a 10 step questionnaire, verifying contractors past two years of audited or reviewed financials, bondability, and DIR registration.
2	Integrated Security Controls, Inc.	$50,000	Security Cameras Maintenance Contract. This is listed as a renewal, but a prior contract was unable to be located.
3	KTR Facilities Consulting, Inc.	$80,000	The August contract was for $105 K. It is unclear what has changed and if the cost is in lieu of or in addition to the original contract.
4	California State University, East Bay	$0	This intern program requires 36 hours of Mentor Teacher time. There is no mention of remuneration for this time in the contract.
5	Chavan and Associates, LLP	$54,750	Provide the external audit services for all district funds as well as for the Bond Measure I and L for Fiscal Years 2021-22
6	BJ Bishchoff	$15,000	At the rate of $175 per hour, develop grant proposals to be submitted to government agencies and/or private foundations

Total value of contracts = $212,250.00

Could SRCS expand the contract section of the board agenda to share the results of their review of the metrics of prior contracts as they are renewed?

F6. Approval of CSEA 75 2022-2023 Classified Employee Calendar

Summary

The Board will consider approving the draft 2022-2023 Classified Employee Calendar with 242 workdays which has been negotiated and approved by both parties.

Calendar Draft

F7. Approval of Ross Recreation Proposal for a new playground structure at Hidden Valley Elementary School

Summary

The Board will consider approval of the proposal to install a new playground structure at Hidden Valley Elementary School. It will be funded by the parent association (50%) and insurance monies from the Tubbs Fire (50%).

Quote

Design

This playground design looks very appealing!

This item brings up the question, “What is the status of the Tubbs fire insurance funds?” When can we expect a public accounting of what funds were requested, what have been collected, what they have been spent on, and what if anything is still in process?

E.3. (Acción) Resolución para el Mes de la Educación Artística

¡SRTA felicita a nuestros miembros que se aseguran de que los estudiantes reciban educación artística!

En una reunión anterior de la Mesa Directiva hubo una solicitud de datos que demuestren cómo la educación artística en nuestro distrito impacta a los estudiantes. SRCS está comprometido con la música en nuestras escuelas, con maestros especialistas dedicados que trabajan con nuestros estudiantes de primaria. Actualmente, el enfoque principal está en el programa Music Blitz para garantizar que todos los estudiantes de 4º, 5º y 6º grado reciban instrucción instrumental semanal.

E.4. (Acción) Actualizaciones de COVID Programa de prevención (CPP) y revisiones del manual de COVID-19

Resumen

Ha habido nuevos estándares temporales de emergencia (ETS) y nuevos requisitos de CAL/OSHA que merecen una actualización del CPP.

Actualizar

Presentación

Manual

Orden de seguridad

Con el levantamiento de los requisitos, se espera una decisión sobre el uso de máscaras escolares para fines de mes.

Las pruebas de grupo de SRCS serán cada dos semanas a partir de marzo.

OSHA exige que las pruebas del personal sean supervisadas por personal capacitado.

SRTA espera negociar estos cambios en nuestras condiciones de trabajo.

E.5 (Acción) Resolución No. 2021/22-34 para Seleccionar Mapa de Área de Fiduciario Ajustado

Resumen

La Mesa Directiva considerará la aprobación de la Resolución nº 2021/22-34 que aborda los ajustes necesarios al Mapa del Área de Fideicomisarios de SRCS después de la publicación de los Datos del Censo Federal de 2020.

Presentación del impacto de los datos del censo

La Mesa Directiva debe elegir un mapa en esta reunión para cumplir con los requisitos de la fecha límite.

E6. (Discusión) Plan de responsabilidad y control local (LCAP) Informe de mitad de año

Resumen

El Proyecto de Ley 130 de la Asamblea requiere que las LEA presenten una actualización sobre la Actualización Anual del LCAP 2021-22 y el Resumen del Presupuesto el 28 de febrero de 2022 o antes.

2021-22 SRCS Primaria y Secundaria LCAP.pdf

Informe LCAP de mitad de año de SRCS (inglés)

Informe LCAP de mitad de año de SRCS (Español)

Informe LCAP de mitad de año de las escuelas chárter (inglés)

Informe LCAP de mitad de año de las escuelas chárter (English)

SRTA espera que la presentación aclare si las actualizaciones son presupuestos revisados en función de las tendencias de gasto actuales, o si son una contabilidad de los fondos gastados hasta la fecha. Cualquiera de los dos es perturbador. Varios elementos tienen valores significativamente mayores en la actualización. El 35 % (24) de los 68 puntos de acción no muestran gastos o tienen un presupuesto ajustado de $0. Las métricas proporcionadas son preocupantes. Aunque muchas métricas no están incluidas, la mayoría de las incluidas muestran una disminución significativa de las líneas de base establecidas en el LCAP. SRTA sostiene que hay demasiadas piezas móviles en este LCAP para tener éxito con todas ellas, especialmente en este momento. Esperamos asociarnos con el distrito para forjar un LCAP más enfocado y efectivo.

El proceso utilizado para crear esta actualización de mitad de año no incluyó unidades de negociación. Estamos casi en el cuarto trimestre y no se han proporcionado planes ni cronogramas para revisar y actualizar el LCAP anual.

E7. (Acción) Aprobación del Plan de Estabilización Fiscal 2021-22 (FSP-P1): Acciones específicas para el 2.º informe provisional del año fiscal 2021-22

Resumen

La Mesa Directiva considerará la aprobación de las recomendaciones del Superintendente para mejoras de ingresos y reducciones de gastos para el Plan de Estabilización Fiscal – Parte 1 para su inclusión en el Segundo Informe Interino 2021-22.

Presentación

Plan

Los grandes elementos que están moviendo a SRCS a una certificación positiva son

Se esperan $17 millones adicionales en fondos estatales
$4.6 M de gastos transferidos del fondo general a fondos Covid y Esser
$256,000 la eliminación de dos puestos, un Coordinador de Matemáticas actualmente vacante y .8 COSA (Consejero en Asignación Especial) vacante.
$300,000 de un reembolso y ahorros esperados de un contrato futuro
$ 75,000 en aumento de las tarifas de cuidado infantil

SRTA aplaude la reestructuración del pago de los gastos corrientes. La ausencia de la demanda de nuevos programas con nuevos fondos es refrescante.

SRTA nota que el plan actual exige la eliminación de 50 puestos para el año escolar 2023-2024. Si bien este ha sido un elemento persistente, se ha evitado repetidamente. Todos esperamos que vuelva a ser así. Mantener intacta nuestra fuerza laboral era claramente una prioridad en este plan. Esto parece sabio en muchos frentes. Atraer y retener es bastante difícil sin despedir empleados. La moral sería devastada por un despido masivo. Actualmente, casi 80 maestros son 1.2 FTE, y muchos maestros están cobrando grandes pagos por excedentes porque están enseñando a más estudiantes de los permitidos en el contrato. Mientras esperamos el refinamiento de la nueva visión para ISP y la posibilidad de crear una escuela en línea, SRTA insiste en que avancemos hacia prácticas más justas y sostenibles para estudiantes y educadores.

F. ARTÍCULOS DE CONSENTIMIENTO

F.2. Aprobación de Transacciones de Personal

Hay 183 vacantes clasificadas actuales (una menos que en la última reunión) y dos puestos gerenciales clasificados (igual que en la última reunión). Última reunión.)

SRTA da la bienvenida a tres nuevas contrataciones certificadas: Jennifer Freese (CCLA), Selamawit Bariamichael (SRHS) y Lauren Martin (EAHS).

SRTA felicita a los siguientes miembros que han notado sus futuras jubilaciones: Debbie Crapeau (LBES), Marlena Hirsch (PHS), Donna Holmes (MHS), Edward Locker (ABES), Dennis Miller (MHS) y Steven Salkovics (MHS). ¡Gracias por sus 146 años combinados de servicio a nuestros estudiantes!

SRTA envía nuestras cariñosas despedidas a quienes renunciaron al final del año: Lila Burke (SRHS), Brian Friedman (RHS), Mohamed Teieb (FACS), Chandra Van Winkle (BHES) y Page Willson (PHS). Se llevan 15 años combinados de servicio y experiencia con ustedes. Les deseamos todo lo mejor en sus futuros emprendimientos.

Hay cinco clasificados de nuevas incorporaciones. Este mes hay aviso de dos renuncias y dos retiros clasificados. Se llevan 53.5 años de conocimiento institucional.

¡Este diseño de parque infantil se ve muy atractivo!

Este artículo plantea la pregunta: “¿Cuál es el estado de los fondos del seguro contra incendios de Tubbs?” ¿Cuándo podemos esperar una rendición de cuentas pública de qué fondos se solicitaron, cuáles se han recaudado, en qué se han gastado y si aún hay algo en proceso?

Summary

The Board will conduct a Public Hearing for Santa Rosa French-American Charter School (SRFACS) to consider revising the charter document to include grades 7th and 8th.

Original Charter

Revised Charter

Expanding FACS the middle school will directly address declining enrollment as well as create a pathway for continuing to serve these diverse, dual language students.

It would be helpful if a long term goal/plan for this and other sites was shared with transparency. Historically broken promises around CCLA relocation and merger as well as the closing of Doyle Park have left scars.

Because of the impact of the Tubbs fire to trustee area 3, the districts are required to be redrawn to more equitably distribute the population and subgroups as calculated in the 2020 Census.

E7. (Discussion) Discussion of Proposals Received Regarding Fir Ridge Property (APN 173-620-030)

Summary

This is a contract for $3 million for the “Fir Ridge” property. Sale completion expected by October 2022.

The sale of this property was approved with the agreement that these funds would establish a new program to assist employees in purchasing their own homes. Now that there is progress on this front, it is time to establish this program, in collaboration with union representatives so that these funds can be utilized at once when they are available.

E8. (Discussion) West County Transportation Agency Annual Costs

Summary

Starting in the 2016-17 school year, SRCS transitioned to the West County Transportation Agency to provide busing. As part of the transition to WCTA, SRCS agreed to pay the same contract amount for services for the 2016-17 school year with a 3-year phase-in cycle for school to home transportation and a 5-year phase-in cycle for Special Education transportation. Currently, SRCS represents approximately 42% (15/36) for general education busing and approximately 56.5% (432/764) for Special Education busing.

WCTA is still facing a driver shortage. WCTA has 16 open routes.

ol Year	Transportation Agency	Cost of Home to School and Special Education Transportation
16/17	WCTA	$6,708,228.58
17/18	WCTA	$5,506,494.99
18/19	WCTA	$6,248,404.19
19/20	WCTA	$7,043,971.77
20/21*	WCTA	$6,450,244.07
21/22**	WCTA	$8,232,918.00

This item just addresses the annual costs of having WCTA service SRCS students.

When this was a prior item many parental concerns were raised. Of greatest concern was the lack of communication from WCTA when the servicing routes were delayed, as well as the disruption caused when these delays were significant. Visions of students with disabilities waiting for extended periods of time in the rain were uncomfortable for all. Has any of this been addressed?

Some Gen Ed routes are routinely causing students to be 45 minutes late to school. At the secondary level, these students can be regularly missing an entire class period. How is this completely unacceptable situation being addressed? All students deserve an education.

Extending the experience of our students outside the classroom has been recognized as incredibly important. Arranging transportation for field trips through WCTA is difficult at best.

F. CONSENT ITEMS

F.2. Approval of Personnel Transactions

EdJoin shows a total of 120 current postings for 238 job vacancies for SRCS, 15 less than last meeting. 22 of these are coaching positions. There are 50 certificated openings (four more than last meeting), and two certificated management openings (the same as last meeting.) There are 184 current classified openings (twenty less than last meeting), and two classified management positions (one more than the last meeting.)

SRTA welcomes two certificated new hires: Mayra Figueroa and Itzel Negrete both at CCLA. We bid farewell to the resigning Jacquelyn Cosgrove (MCHS), Sophie Bigot (FACS), Shannon Davison (PHS), Daniel Gaines (PHS), Todd Kapp (SRHS). Guillaume Sauvourel (FACS) and Omar Alvarez (MHS) who take with them 14 years of experience with the students of SRCS. We wish you success!

It is so much more efficient to retain and train employees than acquire and assimilate new hires.

There is one classified hire with three resignations taking 12 years of institutional knowledge with them.

We bid farewell to Aaron Harkey, Assistant Principal of SRHS.

E. DISCUSSION / ACTION ITEMS

E.1. (Action) Public Board Meetings Via Teleconference per AB 361

Summary

The Board will consider the continuance of conducting public meetings virtually.

Summary

To evaluate the level of students’ Social-Emotional Learning and wellbeing SRCS has implemented the Panorama Survey of students in the fall of 2021. The survey results will help guide the next steps to respond to student needs.

Board Report – Panorama

How do we evaluate if the data collected from this survey is actually helpful?

What specific outcome changes are expected when repeating this survey next year? What actions will be undertaken to support those changes, and who is responsible for them? How will those changes be implemented to ensure success?

E.3. (Discussion) Public Hearing: Impact of 2020 Census Data on Trustee Area Map Population Balance and Proposed Adjusted Maps

Summary

With the new census data, the current Trustee Area Maps are out of compliance. Adjustments are required to be approved by the board before March.

There are minor adjustments shown in the maps. It is difficult to tell the difference between Scenario #1 and 3 in the linked maps.

E.4. (Action) Acceptance of the 2020-2021 Independent Audit Report

2020-2021 SRCS Audited Financials

Kudos on this audit!

E5. (Discussion) Safe Routes to Schools Update

Summary

Safe Routes to Schools and Santa Rosa City School’s collaboration is of positive benefit to our students, families, and community and we look forward to continuing to find creative ways to engage students and families to provide bicycle and pedestrian safety in the years to come.

Safe Routes to Schools continues to exist in SRCS with the precarious requirement that site staff “Champion” the program. Requiring staff to volunteer their time and energy to have a successful program at a site is inequitable. If this program is valued, it would be supported in a systemic and sustainable way.

E6. (Action) Resolution for February as African-American History Month

The theme for 2022 focuses on the importance of Black Health and Wellness. This theme acknowledges the legacy of Black scholars and medical practitioners in Western medicine, and considers activities, rituals, and initiatives that Black communities have done to be well.

Summary

The budget proposal is expected to be reduced from the impact of Omicron on state finances.

Several current priorities are to be continued.

SRCS is now required to perform a mid-year review of the LCAP by the end of February.

“(The) biggest challenges for schools are not easily solved in the budget – COVID fatigue, staffing shortages, unstable attendance, confusion over health/safety protocols, enormous time and energy devoted to issues outside core teaching and learning.”

E.2. (Discusión) Encuesta Panorama: Encuesta socioemocional basada en fortalezas Identificación de las necesidades de los estudiantes

Resumen

Para evaluar el nivel de aprendizaje socioemocional y bienestar de los estudiantes, SRCS implementó la Encuesta Panorama de estudiantes en el otoño de 2021. Los resultados de la encuesta ayudarán a guiar los próximos pasos para responder a las necesidades de los estudiantes.

¿Cómo evaluamos si los datos recopilados de esta encuesta son realmente útiles?

Resumen

La colaboración de Safe Routes to Schools y Santa Rosa City School es de beneficio positivo para nuestros estudiantes, familias y comunidad y esperamos continuar encontrando formas creativas de involucrar a estudiantes y familias para brindar seguridad para ciclistas y peatones en los años venideros.

Presentacion

Rutas Seguras a las Escuelas continúa existiendo en SRCS con el precario requisito de que el personal del sitio “defienda” el programa. Requerir que el personal brinde su tiempo y energía como voluntarios para tener un programa exitoso en un sitio no es equitativo. Si se valora este programa, se apoyaría de manera sistémica y sostenible.

E6. (Acción) Resolución para febrero como Mes de la Historia Afroamericana

SRCS COVID-19 Safety Handbook (Updated for 01/12/22)

SRSC COVID-19 Student & Family Handbook (Updated for 01/12/22)

SRCS Manual Para Estudiantes Y Familias

SRTA welcomes changes to make our students and staff safer amidst the Omicron outbreak.

As SRTA members prepared to return from Winter break, there was a defined desire for the district to provide KN95 masks per our MOU. SRTA appreciates the efforts made to secure and distribute these masks to our campuses. SRTA members also appreciate the switch to virtual meetings, for safety’s sake.

Successful implementation of change includes an education piece including transparency around the data, best thinking and requirements for the change. In this case, this should explicitly explain the differences between policy and procedures for elementary vs. secondary. In the provided bullet points, it looks like MS sports will be masked, and wrestling and HS sports won’t. That causes confusion which should be minimized.

Currently SRCS provides on site testing to employees that have not reported being vaccinated. Vaccinated employees must go to Lewis to test. When will all employees be able to opt in to this testing on their campuses?

E5. (Action) Criteria to Determine Certificated Personnel Who Shall Be Exempt From the Order of Layoff (“Skipping Criteria“)

Summary

Credentialed teachers considered high need will be skipped if there are layoffs. High need is defined as:

(1) Single Subject Spanish, Spanish (BCLAD) and/or French (BCLAD)

(2) Single Subject Math and/or Single Subject Science (including but not limited to physics, chemistry, biological science, physical science and life science)

(3) Special Education

(4) All teachers who are assigned to a dual immersion program at CCLA or SRFACS

(5) In 2022-2023 are assigned within the scope of any one or more of the credentials, certifications, or permit authorizing instruction or services in the areas identified in (1) – (4), above, shall be exempt from the order of layoff.

Skipping Criteria

This criteria is unchanged from last year.

E6. (Action) Tie-Breaking Criteria to Determine the Order of Termination Among Certificated Employees with the Same Hire Date

Summary

In preparation for potential Reduction in Force (RIF), the Board will consider approval of Resolution 2021/22-22, Resolution to adopt seniority date tie-breaking criteria for establishing an order of termination for employees who first rendered paid probationary service to the District on the same date and to comply with the requirements of Education Code section 44955.

Tie-Breaking Criteria

This criteria is unchanged from last year.

E7. (Action) Frontline Education Human Resource Management System (HRMS) Contract

Summary

Extending the contract to Frontline will expand the services utilized, and replace theses other services:

EdJoin (Job posting, hiring and interview process) (No current contract $0)
Informed K12 (Workflow automation forms) ($35,207)
TargetSolution (Employee Mandated Trainings) (No current contract $0)
Hard Copy Personnel Files (No cost)

Initial financial outlay $207,400. Annual Recurring Fees $176,103

Agreement

SRTA supports upgrading our HR software to utilize a single program. Making this shift with a structured plan including appropriate training and transfer of data makes sense.

When and how will these programs be evaluated to ensure SRCS is able to fully utilize the programs as anticipated? Specifically this concern arises because the Frontline Professional Growth system has been less than adequate for SRCS use, requiring a clumsy work around to share Zoom links for sessions.

While these shifts are being made to increase efficiency, can SRCS shift to ‘automatically’ calculating and paying SRTA members who have more students than contractually allowed, eliminating the extensive monthly paperwork?

E8. (Action) Approval of MOU reached with SRCS and SRTA regarding Home and Hospital Alternative Work Assignment

Summary

Home and Hospital Teachers agree to

Work with students who need re-engagement and/or support
Steps and parameters for re-engagement and/or support
Teaching strategies for students re-engaging through a Home Support Program
Procedures in regard to attendance for students in the Home Support Program
Program facilitation
Caseloads at or under 25 total students contact hours per week
Supporting AB 130 Independent Study Programs students in person at school or district site or at another mutually agreed upon location

MOU

SRTA appreciates the collaboration with members that this MOU represents.

SRCS Home and Hospital teachers deserve appreciation and proper utilization. They are an incredible resource for our students.

E9. (Discussion) Independent Study Update- AB 130

Summary

53 teachers are teaching the equivalent of 13.2 FTE to serve 403 KA – 12 students. 71 Elementary, 57 Middle School, and 281 High School. The majority of participating students are Latino/hispanic and speak English Only.

Survey results put Acellus in a positive light.

Update

At the Aug 11 board meeting it was said that these students, like all students, would receive wrap around services and support resources. How is this working? What is the data around these students taking advantage of additional services?

The flow of communication to participating staff could improve, especially around the structures for taking roll and assigning grades. The report fails to capture the difficulty students are experiencing trying to learn math with Acellus. Many participating staff do not feel like they are able to help students bridge this gap.

E10. (Action) Resolution to appoint Matthew Dunkle to the Adult Education Program Member Participation and Sonoma County Adult Education Consortium Oversight Committee

Summary

The Board will consider approval of Resolution 2021/22-27 appointing Executive Director of Educational Services Matthew Dunkle to represent the Santa Rosa City Schools on the Sonoma County Adult Education Consortium Oversight Committee.

E11. (Discussion) Panorama Survey: Strengths-Based Social-Emotional Survey Identifying Student Needs

Summary

Survey of students in the fall of 2021 reported Supportive Relationships. There are “Opportunities for teachers to find answers” to why students have difficulty focusing on learning. There is a need for greater student self-efficacy, especially for Latinx and secondary students. The survey results will help guide the next steps to respond to student needs.

Supports in place include Playbook, Wayfinder, RISE and SOS.

Board Report

When staff proposed the contract with Panorama, there were high expectations for using this data to impact our systems. How is that rolling out?

What is the structure to inform and guide teachers to do this answer finding work?

In regards to the various supports that are in place, how have teachers been informed about these supports? What has the training been to utilize these supports? Where is the data on staff utilizing these resources?

E12. (Discussion) Requirement to Conduct Assessment of Trustee Area Map using 2020 Census Data and Next Steps

Without any maps or data to review, it is difficult to prepare for this item.

F. CONSENT ITEMS

F.2. Approval of Personnel Transactions

EdJoin shows a total of 134 current postings for 270 job vacancies for SRCS, 4 more than last month. 31 of these are coaching positions. There are 53 certificated openings (two less than last month), and three certificated management openings (one more than last month.) There are 213 current classified openings (five more than last month), and one classified management position (the same as last month.)

As SRCS nears the middle of the year, the quantity of unfilled positions remains incredibly high. The current course is completely unsustainable. The day to day pressures on our system this year are unprecedented. Administrators can not be expected to do their jobs and constantly provide substitute services. Teachers can not continually give up their prep time. With the onset of Omicron, the unmet need for more adults on our campuses grows. Systemic collapse is not unthinkable.

SRTA welcomes the three certificated new hires: Evelyn Clancy (MHS), Richard Santina (PTES), and James Seder (SRHS).

There are thirteen classified hires and one resignation taking three years of institutional knowledge with them.

SRTA members are ready for an upgrade to the copies on campuses. Sadly this will have to wait another year.

As the contract is renewed for the second semester, what progress has been made on the CTE /dual language work for EAHS? How long is this work expected to take?

Is there a plan to replace the Lucy Calkins curriculum with the recent evidence that it is not an effective program?

F6. Approval of Authorized Signatory for California Department of Education, Early Childhood Education Contract

F11. Approval of Proposed Increase of Minimum Wage

Summary

The Board will consider approval of the proposed increase of minimum wage for:

Accompanist
After School Athletic Program, Elementary
Auditorium Supervisor
Ticket Taker/Timekeeper/Scorekeeper
Student Workers

And, the revision of the Extra Duty Hourly/Miscellaneous Salary Schedule for 2021-2022 to reflect this increase ordered by the California Legislature.

Extra Duty Salary Schedule

California Minimum Wage Notice

SRTA appreciates this move to comply with the State of California’s $15/hr minimum wage. We are greatly disappointed that SRCS’s minimum wage continues to lag behind Santa Rosa City’s minimum wage which has increased to $15.85/hr as of January 1, 2022 because their minimum wage has automatic increases based on the Bay Area Consumer Price Index (CPI-W) while SRCS does not.

https://srcity.org/3164/Minimum-Wage

F12. Approval of Biometrics4All, Inc. Contract

Summary

The district is in the process of purchasing hardware, software and warranty through Biometrics4All, Inc. Biometrics4All will provide our Human Resources staff with remote training in becoming Fingerprint Roller Certified and Cal-DOJ testing. The DOJ only accepts electronically transmitted fingerprint images and related information to process requests for criminal records checks. Biometrics4All is the best technology partner for our Live Scan business with a minimal ongoing cost associated with the Live Scan (fingerprinting).

ESSER III Plan Approval Letter

It seems prudent to shift to doing in-house fingerprinting. Will this provide sufficient capacity to handle all volunteers in SRCS? What is the plan to evaluate this shift to ensure it is implemented as envisioned?

F13. and F14 Renew Appointments to the Measure L (Elementary) and Measure I (High School) Citizens’ Bond Oversight Committee (COC)

Summary

This will renew the following two committee members.

With the major safety incidents last week, it is apparent that there is much room for improvement. we need to do better. The procedures for communicating with staff are less than ideal. Site administrators have more than ever on their plate, and require more staff for supervision and support with incident management.

With the churn of administrators, trust has not been established across the district. The need for timely and clear communication is paramount.

What progress has been made since eliminating the School Resource Officers (SRO) from sites? They were removed because of identified issues that do not appear to have been addressed.

Cleanliness of sites is a campus culture and safety issue. With the increased use of site cafeterias, there is an increase of trash. Eliminating food for vermin is a necessity for safety. The custodial staff is stretched too thin to take care of everything that needs attention.

What is the minimum action that counts as involving and updating staff on emergencies and site plans?

SRCS does not appear to have effective emergency response procedures for campuses. Creating detailed plans including roles and responsibilities for individuals and preparedness training for staff, as well as having sufficient supplies for extended emergencies, requires time and funding that is not provided across the district. The high turnover in staff requires that significant time be spent on this annually for sites to become and remain prepared.

Covid prevention has exasperated preparedness concerns. SRTA awaits plans for keeping students safe and dry while they eat lunch during covid when there is not sufficient outdoor covered eating spaces at our sites. Direction is also required regarding open doors and windows with inclement weather. Many classroom openings have no protection from the elements.

Is StopIt! in place district wide as a way for students to provide anonymous tips? How is that communicated? Where is the data on the utilization of this service? Many members are unaware of this service, which means students are unaware if it is available.

E.3. and 4 (Action) Public Hearing and Resolution: Naming of Cesar Chavez Language Academy Campus

Santa Rosa City Schools (English)

As a matter of clarification, the merger committee did not complete the process of submitting a name for the new school.

Can SRCS engage in an honest after action review and create procedures for closing and naming schools that will actually be followed? With the constant threat of declining enrollment, it is reasonable to expect that such procedures would be useful. Creating the plan in flight has not worked previously.

As clearly expressed at the last board meeting, this is a case of too little, too late. After the poor process and broken promises, this resolution to ‘rename’ this campus with the Charter School name is opening lesions.

E5. (Action) Educator Effectiveness Block Grant Funds Allocation for 2021-2026

Educator Effectiveness Funds (EEF) provide grant monies for the next five years. These plans are said to be flexible.

SRTA members desire a menu of options for Professional Development, including time to work with colleagues. Members want exposure to best practices as well as time to create plans to implement new practices. There is a desire to be in each other’s classrooms, and have time to debrief around what is seen.

With the difficulty that exists in attracting staff, SRTA suggests that funds from this grant be used to re-establish PAR. This program is provided for in the SRTA contract, but was gutted during earlier funding cuts. Peer Assistance and Review (PAR) Program’s purpose is to support and renew quality teaching in classrooms throughout the District. The Program emphasizes teacher professionalism and recognizes that teacher quality positively affects student outcomes. The PAR Program’s Mentor Teachers provide confidential instructional support to teachers who have received below-standard evaluations or to those who request it. Ideally Mentor Teachers are selected in a rigorous interview process, and receive regular professional development in methods and strategies to best serve the Participating Teachers they work with around the California Standards for the Teaching Profession (CSTPs).

It is well established that ongoing ventures like lesson study are most effective in helping teachers grow and implement changes in their practice. Effective programs have built in time to complete the cycle of inquiry (question, predict, plan, investigate, record, reflect and revise.) This includes time for collaboration. Releasing the practice of one and done, and shifting the focus to more valuable endeavors will reap great benefits.

E6. (Action) Approval of MOU Reached with SRCS and SRTA Regarding Mandatory Training

MOU (Mandatory Training)

SRCS is required to provide training:

Suicide Prevention Training (every two years) CA Ed Code Section 215, SRCS Board Policy and AR 5141.52
Mandated Reporter Training (annually, during the first six weeks of school) California AB 1432 and Ed Code 44691
Those applying pesticide must complete Integrated Pest Management of at least one hour, (annually) Healthy Schools Act and CA Ed Code 17614
Training on Blood Borne Pathogens (annually) Cal/OSHA and Title 8 CCR 5193
Supervisory Employees must complete Anti-Harassment Training (every two years) CA AB 1825

When completing this training became an additional requirement, SRTA expected the time to complete the training be provided as changes to working conditions are a mandatory subject of bargaining. Each year there has been an issue with reaching an agreement on this. This year, district administration was unwilling to resolve this until SRTA filed a demand to bargain, and the negotiation teams met. This resulting MOU will establish an ongoing practice of providing time for this training. The district has promised to shorten the trainings so that three hours will be a reasonable amount of time to complete them.

An agreement was reached to provide 4 hours of paid time this year for those providing proof of completion of trainings by February, without requiring further paperwork.

SRTA celebrates the progress on resolving this ongoing issue.

E7. (Discussion) Requirement to Conduct Assessment of Trustee Area Map Using 2020 Census Data and Next Steps

The current Trustee Map has the appearance of being gerryrigged. It is hoped that the new map will be less political and instead utilize natural boundaries while balancing populations in each area.

I3. Update on Elsie Allen High School WASC Accreditation

Report

The Western Association of Schools and Colleges provides the accreditation of our high schools. WASC expects sites to have evidence of goals they are making progress on. There is a significant self study process sites undergo to write their report that should be unified with the site SPSA.

The nearly year old report from the WASC visiting committee for EAHS calls out concerns that are to be addressed in an in depth progress report and two day visit scheduled for February 28 and March 1.

Are district and site governance teams aligned?
Has more coherence been built about how to address the school’s critical needs?
Has anxiety around the school’s future with the closing of the feeder middle school been alleviated?
Has a coherent vision including mission and goals with metrics been established?

SRTA appreciates the intense nature of the WASC process. If district administration could avail themselves of the experience of this process, they would be able to better support the efforts of sites to maintain accreditation.

I4. EL Program Update

Action Plans include the following:

Created training for administration and staff around Designated ELD, legal mandates, policy and current best practices
English Learner Specialist supporting staff at sites by modeling, planning, providing data and additional supports
Researching professional development opportunities to support staff and students (Integrated and Designated ELD)
Researching districts for models and best practices to inform our work
Discussion and support around Master Schedule with administrators
Provided AVID training to secondary staff at various sites (Summer 2021)

Report

SRTA stands firm in wanting better academic results for our EL students. SRTA members would appreciate an implementation plan and timeline for this action plan work as well as metrics for measuring the impact of these efforts.

The updating of the EL Master plan has been discussed, but is not not included in this update. Having a Master Plan is only useful if it is used to guide practice, policy and procedures.

Summary

This MOU provides CSEA 75 members required by current CDPH guidelines to stay home for COVID-19 illness, exposure, or quarantine purposes up to ten days of COVID-19 leave from the District. This is not to be deducted from their personal leave bank.

SRTA supports this safe and healthy measure which supports our CSEA 75 siblings. This action states the importance of upholding CDPH guidelines to protect the health of our students.

E.3. (Action) Resolution No. 2021/22-18 to Recognize Peace Poles for Schools

Summary

This resolution supports the installation of Peace Poles on every school campus, creating a tangible commitment to cultivating peace within and between all people. The expense of installation will be covered by Veterans for Peace (VFP) Chapter 71 in Sonoma County and the Santa Rosa East-West Rotary Club.

Regulation 7310: Naming Of Facility

SRTA supports the peaceful goal of this resolution. Leaving the costs of ongoing upkeep to individual sites seems shortsighted, and demeans the support the resolution appears to offer for this effort. If the board truly supports this measure, they should insist that the funds/labor to support it are provided by the district.

E.4. (Discussion) Educator Effectiveness Block Grant Funds Allocation for 2021-2026

Summary

Educator Effectiveness Funds (EEF) have been allocated by the California Department of Education to support professional learning. This item is a draft of the proposed allocation of the Educator Effectiveness Block Grant Funding during the 2021-2026 school years, totaling $3,443,208. These plans should be considered flexible, and subject to change based on shifts in identified needs. A final draft to be presented to the Board of Education on December 8, 2021.

Spanish Draft SRArtsCS

SRTA requests transparency about the process involved in this item. What methods were engaged to create this draft? Where are the specific intentions of each planned use of funds enumerated? What feedback loops will be utilized, and what methods will be used to discern what changes will be made for the final draft?

From a fiscal point of clarity, are these funds offsetting efforts that were included in the budget thereby freeing up monies for additional efforts?

E5. (Discussion) Status and Review of Information on the Naming of Lawrence Cook Middle School/Cesar Chavez Language Academy Campus

Summary

Community advisory committees were convened to follow the facilities naming process, as outlined in Administrative Regulation 7310 for Burbank and Monroe. Their recommendations did not appear to sit well with the board, and the remaining efforts for these sites were stalled. The board can ask for a new committee or consider all information presented, including the stakeholder input gathered and voted on in December 2019, and conduct a Public Hearing at a subsequent Board meeting to take action on a final name for the school.

Policy 7310: Naming Of Facility

SRTA expects the process utilized to rename a facility to be one that fully invites stakeholders into the conversation, and honors their input. The recent history of relocating CCLA to Cook, and the merger committee structure utilized includes regret. Ideally this movement forward will be done in a unifying and healing way. The school community deserves this.

E6. (Discussion) Career Technical Education Update

Summary

This item explores the variety of CTE programs which ensure that students are meeting the workforce needs of local and regional employers, to support relevant and meaningful learning experiences for students, and to prepare students for post-secondary education and careers.

CTE Program and Course List

12 Essential Elements

CTE Presentation

What is the vision for CTE in SRCS? What are the next steps to improve our program?

Currently 9.4% of students enrolled in CTE are from EAHS. What is the plan for making EAHS a CTE Site?

The demographic data included requires some context. How does CTE enrollment data compare with overall enrollment distributions?

SRTA supports the reinstatement of the District CTE Advisory Committee and supports the development of active site CTE Advisory Committees.

F. CONSENT ITEMS

F.2. Approval of Personnel Transactions

EdJoin shows a total of 151 current postings for 282 job vacancies for SRCS. 31 of these are coaching positions. There are 58 certificated openings, and three certificated management openings. There are 220 current classified openings, and one classified management position.

As SRCS nears the middle of the year, the quantity of unfilled positions remains incredibly high. The current course is completely unsustainable. The day to day pressures on our system this year are unprecedented. Administrators can not be expected to do their jobs and provide substitute services. Teachers can not continually give up their prep time. SRTA is fearful of systemic collapse without immediate change. What is the plan?

Welcome to SRTA new hires: Gienna Gonnella (CCLA), Charlene Simons (MCHS) and welcome back to Christie Rose (MCHS.)

There are two classified hires, six resignations and one retirement taking 42 years of institutional knowledge with them. Thank you for your service to our students and staff.

Total value of contracts = $105,609

Authorizing Teach Consent

Of note, SRCS is paying $500 per outside presenter for afterschool PD. When our own talented teachers provide an hour of PD they are paid about $100. This continued disparity is noticed.

It is a sad day when SRCS hires an outside contractor to fill a Sped teaching position. What is the plan for moving forward as teachers are harder to attract and retain?

F6. Authorizing Certificated Teachers To Teach Outside Their Major Or Minor Fields – Teacher Consents

Summary

This annual item provides exceptions for teachers teaching outside of their credential and for teachers teaching courses for which there is no credential. With his or her consent, a full-time teacher with special skills and preparation outside of his or her credential authorization may be assigned to teach in the areas of his or her special skills, provided the assignment is approved by the District.

SRTA notes the quantity of exceptions by site:

HCMS (3), CCLA (2), HSMS (4), RVMS (4), ISP (2), SRMS (3), EAHS (4), MHS (6), PHS (7), RHS (5), SRHS (1)

“Teachers have been asked to keep in contact with their Human Resources Technician who will keep a list of units, workshops, seminars and other activities attended to support their knowledge and skills to keep course curriculum relevant.”

SRTA expects SRCS to support this extended education of our members so they can continue to serve our students. This would include paying for their time and the fees/subscriptions incurred to support their knowledge.

F7. Approval of Memorandum of Understanding Between SCOE and SRCS for AERIES Student Information System Transition Services

Summary

SCOE will provide compensation for the associated costs incurred by SRCS during the initial conversion to integrate our Human Resources system, Escape, into the SIS and the first year support and maintenance of the Aeries Student Information System. $163,310

AERIES Transition MOU

SRTA supports this integration, and appreciates the support of SCOE.

The issues with the transition to AERIES are many, and the path to resolution is unclear. This year is difficult enough without the frustration of a SIS which is not fully functional.

F8. Approval of New Courses for the 2022-2023 School Year

Summary

Piner High School has three course proposals to strengthen their STEM focus.

Advanced Building Trades

Introduction to Engineering

AP Computer Science

SRTA supports these new courses, and applauds the efforts of our members to continue to explore new opportunities for students.

SRTA appreciates the difference between Project Make, and Construction and Design. There is the expectation that Project Make courses are not being removed from the list of approved courses.

The AP Computer Science course application specifies that it will be offered online as a seventh period allowing students of other campuses to enroll if other sites are not able to offer the course. SRTA supports this creativity to expand student choice.

F9. Approval of Revised Provisional Internship Permit Application (PIP) for Jessica Wood

Summary

The Board will consider approval of a Provisional Internship Permit application (PIP) for Jessica Wood.

Jessica Woods PIP

SRTA notes that this is the sixth application for an exception to the requirement for fully accredited staff. While supporting this application, there is concern for the underlying causes which create the need for less than fully credentialed staff teaching our students.

F10. Approval of Appointment to the Measure I and the Measure L Citizens’ Oversight Committees (COC)

Summary

The Board will consider approval of the appointment of Michael Von der Porten (Bona Fide Taxpayers’ Organization Representative: Sonoma County Taxpayers’ Association) to the Measure I and the Measure L Citizens’ Oversight Committees representing a bona fide taxpayers’ association

Application (Redacted)

SRTA appreciates the commitment Michael Von der Porten has continually shown to our students, and supports his appointment to the COC.

I5. SRFACS Update

Summary

There has been recent interest from current families of the Santa Rosa French-American Charter School (SRFACS) to restore the 7th and 8th grade program.

Considerations:

History of the Charter, and reasons for the 7th and 8th grades being removed from the Charter previously.
Current matriculation of students who remain in-district after 6th grade.
Potential matriculation of students who will remain in-district as a result of the 7th and 8th grades being restored.
Current lottery process.
Fiscal resources and stability
Master schedule and course offerings
Staffing and credentialing requirements
Space availability at other district sites
Organizational management of a satellite program on another campus
Pathway to high school program

Next steps:

Review of survey data from current families with children in the SRFACS regarding interest in remaining with SRFACS is the 7th and 8th grade is restored.
Meetings with SRFACS staff and families for input.
Collaboration with CSEA and SRTA labor groups.
Fiscal and resource projections.
More information will be shared with the Board no later than January.

SRTA appreciates the attentiveness to parent desires and the sharing of the thinking around how to proceed. A timeline that incorporates required deadlines for implementation would be a helpful addition to the above.

C.7. Public Comment on Non Agenda Items

E. DISCUSSION / ACTION ITEMS

E.1. (Action) Public Board Meetings Via Teleconference per AB 361
Summary

Newly signed Assembly Bill (AB) 361 allows remote meetings during a proclaimed state of emergency to promote social distancing.

The irony of eliminating social distancing for students in classrooms but maintaining social distancing for adults via Zoom is not lost on SRTA members.

E.2. (Action) Approval of Resolution Recognizing October 2021 as Filipino American History Month

SRTA supports pausing this month to recognize the valuable contribution Filipinos have made.

Filipino American History Month has lesson ideas.

E.3. (Action) Resolution Proclaiming October 12, 2021 as Indigenous People’s Day

SRTA supports engaging with multiple sources to update the story of early America.

Indigenous Peoples’ Day Resources has lesson ideas.

E.4. (Discussion) COVID-19 Updates

Purpose:

Since the SRCS COVID Safety Plan (CSP) was last approved, there have been updates from the county and State that reflect the ever-changing information about COVID-19 and the Delta Variant.

Considerations:

Vaccinations All California students and school staff will be required to get vaccinated against COVID-19, once the vaccine is fully approved by the FDA. Implementation for Grades 7-12 will be first. Grades K-6 will follow. Pediatric vaccines for ages 5 – 11 are expected to rollout beginning in November.
Vaccinated Students Don’t Need Regular Surveillance Testing Schools that verify proof of vaccination and record it in a secure student health database do not need to include these students in any regular surveillance testing. These students only need to be tested when they have direct contact exposure.
Current Testing: We have teams of staff that provide testing at school sites and at Lewis. We are currently tracking 88 staff members for weekly testing requirements.
Athletics We are waiting for new guidelines for athletes that will address: Transition to winter sports, cleaning and shared gym equipment and sports transportation.

SRCS Confirmed COVID Reporting Data 8/12-10/08
Location	Elem.*	Middle	High School	Student Totals	Staff
Total Since August 12	51	10	50	139	15
Week Ending 10/08	0	0	4	4	0
Week Ending 10/01	10	0	2	12	0

SRCS Employee Vaccination Data as of 10/08/21
Job Category	Fully Vaccinated	Partially Completed	No Response	Declined to State	Unvaccinated	Total Employees In This Group	% Fully Vaccinated
Certificated	841	4	9	20	15	889	94.60%
Classified	487	17	26	24	27	581	83.82%
Admin	76	0	1	1	1	79	96.20%
Category Total	1404	21	36	45	43	1549	90.64%
Substitutes	139	5	34	5	4	187	74.33%

It is refreshing to see the numbers of cases dropping both locally and on this dashboard. Understanding that the confirmed cases require a positive test while testing is not mandated; SRTA members view these results with a grain of salt.

After the last board meeting, it was expected that student surveillance testing funded by the state would begin promptly. The system for parents to opt in for their students to be tested has been via Parent Square which has not proven to be an effective way to communicate with all our families. SRTA wonders on the results from this effort and on other outreach efforts to inform parents of their option to have their students participate in surveillance testing.

How does one access the California Department of Education Safe Return to In-Person Instruction Local Educational Agency Plan that was completed by SRCS on September 23, 2021? Is that the same as the Covid Handbook, of which a draft was shared at the Sept 22 board meeting? Is an updated version of the Covid Handbook available which incorporates the revisions mentioned during the board meeting? The most recent Handbook on the SRCS Website is dated April 15, 2021.

E5. (Discussion) ESSER III Expenditure Plan Introduction and DRAFT

Summary

The ESSER III Expenditure Plan must be adopted by our governing board at a public meeting by October 29, 2021 for the budgeting of $22,273,750 to be spent by September 30, 2024. There is no prohibition on a District using ESSER III funds to pay expenses formerly funded by another source. Not less than 20% of the funds must be used to address the academic impact of lost instructional time through the implementation of evidence-based interventions. The Board will be adopting the ESSER III Expenditure Plan at the October 27, 2021 Regular Board meeting.

Section 4: Community Engagement

❏ Engage in consultation with: Students, Families, administrators, Teachers, school leaders, other educators, school staff, and local bargaining units, Tribes, civil rights groups, and disability rights groups ❏ A Google Form will be distributed to the SRCS Community to provide feedback on the Action Items as part of the ESSER III Expenditure Plan.

Section 5: Actions and Expenditures to Address Continuous and Safe In-Person Learning

❏ Recruit, attract, hire, and retain certificated and classified personnel to ensure staff is on hand to provide instruction and supports during these vital times for student instruction under a teacher and labor shortage environment. Agreements with bargaining units that result in a fiscal impact and provide for safe and continuous in-person learning $8,000,000

❏ Create and maintain the District COVID-19 Safety Plan Student & Family Handbook $250,000 ❏ Replenish and maintain PPE supply for students, staff, and visitors $500,000

❏ Resources necessary to meet any regulation requirements for coronavirus testing and vaccinations the District will need to operate $500,000

❏ Purchase new, maintain, replace, and repair educational technology for student learning and student and teacher interaction $1,000,000

❏ School facility repairs and improvements to enable operation of schools to reduce risk of virus transmission $1,500,000

Section 6: Actions and Expenditures to Addressing the Impact of Lost Instructional Time

❏ Develop and implement programs that meet the social, emotional, mental health and academic needs of students by providing before school, during school, after school, and summer school programs.

$10,123,750

❏ Provide staff professional development on the developed plans that meet the social, emotional, mental health and academic needs of students $1,000,000

Draft

The district has stated their intentions to provide a transparent and inclusive process to include stakeholders in creating plans like the LCAP and the spending of these ESSER funds.

The Budget Advisory Committee was said to be a place for input on these plans, but this has not been on their agenda. There was a promise of a Public Forum on October 15, but that does not appear to be in the offing. The weekly collaboration meeting with SRTA has not included any discussion of these plans. It now appears that a Google Form will be the sole vehicle for input on this plan. In our quest for equity and inclusion, SRCS must be aware at this point that this is not an effective way to communicate with many of our stakeholders. It is time to create a district process for inclusive decision making.

SRTA Members have provided an extensive list of ideas for the spending of these funds to positively impact our students. Some of the highlights are:

Classroom needs for supplies, field trips (including bussing), gardens and technology software
Site Family Night events to better engage families
Measures to allow students to be protected outdoors during inclement weather
After school tutoring/drop in study centers for students
Teachers assistants
Additional effective EL supports
More counselors (this appears to be included)
Reduce class size, eliminate combos (especially for KA-3)
Additional custodial staff
Math Coaches
CO2 monitors

E6. (Discussion) Discussion Regarding Proposed Project Stabilization Agreement with the North Bay Building and Construction Trades Council and Local Unions

Proposed Agreement

It appears that this will support the awarding of contracts to local contractors utilizing unionized workers. SRTA is in support of this.

E7. (Discussion) The Board of Education will Discuss a Self Evaluation Protocol

Self-Evaluation 2021

Strategic Plan 2019-2024

BB 9005 Board Bylaws

BB 9400 Board Bylaws

As the board prepares to review their work over this difficult year, SRTA extends our appreciation for the often thankless task of serving our staff and students.

F. CONSENT ITEMS

F.2. Approval of Personnel Transactions

EdJoin shows a total of 149 current postings for 266 job vacancies for SRCS which is seventy-three more than last month. 37 of these are coaching positions. There are 62 certificated openings (forty-one more than last month), and two certificated management openings (one less than last month). There are 202 current classified openings (thirty-three more than last month), and no classified management positions (the same as last month.)

Welcome to SRTA new hires: Ludovic Pallanca (FACS) and Lea Poisson SRHS.

Welcome back Thomas Meade (SRHS) and Michael Milbrath(SRCArts).

We say farewell to Marie Horwitz (FACS), Derek Kiger (EAHS) and Monica Long (SLES) who each left us after just a month. We also send off Greg Houser who served our Migrant Students with dedication. We wish you well in your future endeavors.

There are two classified hires and two retirements taking 29 years of institutional knowledge with them. Thank you for your service to our students and staff.

SRTA is concerned that the Shadko Design contract is not attached.

While there is support for creating a dual-emersion pathway and providing a stronger CTE program for students, SRTA wonders about the process involved in choosing the facilitator for this work. There is also a concern about the difficulty in securing substitutes. When will these sessions be offered?

F6. Approval of New Job Description for District Data and Compliance Analyst

BA or BS in the field of computer science, mathematics, or information management systems, and/or 3 – 5 years related work experience required. Salary $41.21 to $52.60/hour for 12 month Supervisory employee. Works under the Director of Data and Assessment.

12 hours of training via zoom for 24 EL teachers.

SRTA encourages improved services to our EL population. Are there only 24 providers of ALD and Newcomer services?

With the difficulty in securing substitutes, when will these sessions be offered? What time will be provided to incorporate the ideas from the PD into practice?

F8. Approve Summer of 2022 Roofing/HVAC Projects Architect’s Proposal

The Board will consider approval for the design proposal provided by QKA Architects for the Roofing and HVAC projects at the following campuses: Santa Rosa High School, Phase III and Brook Hill Elementary School.

SRHS Proposal

Brook Hill Proposal

SRTA wonders when an update on the new building at Montgomery High School will be provided.

F9. Approval of Contract with North Bay Organizing Project (NBOP)

NBOP

The NBOP will encourage student voice and establish three clubs at CCLA at no cost to the district.

F10. Approval of Proposal for CA AB 841 (“CalSHAPE”) Work Including Installation of CO2 Sensors

THis contract is for $3,282,900, with $1,994,810 covered by the grant. The final cost to the district will be $1,288,000.

A live link will be posted on the SRCS website (link).

SRTA Members are relieved to have CO2 Monitors in progress. HVES, PTES, FACS, CCLA, HSMS, MHS and PHS are not covered in this contract with grant funds. SRTA expects these sites will receive CO2 monitors financed through Covid funds.

E.3. (Discussion) Summer School 2021

Board Presentation

It is difficult to differentiate between students being successful with summer school vs being enrolled. What were the expenses for summer school, particularly in regards to the cost for successful completions?

The enrollment system for summer school requires some reworking before next summer. Counselors must ensure students are appropriately placed in courses to meet graduation requirements before courses begin.

What are the metrics that will be used to evaluate the use of an online platform as compared to a teacher-delivered curriculum?

When will the comprehensive data from summer school and the specified monitoring data be reviewed? How will that data be collected and shared? When will recommendations for next summer be provided based on the data review?

20-21 IGP Overview

20-21 IGP Eligible Students

20-21 IGP Students Who Pursued

20-21 IGP Graduated Students

The 130 unit minimum graduation requirements from the state of California include 3 year long English classes, 2 Math (including Math 1), 3 Social Studies, 2 Science, 2 PE and 1 Foreign Language/Art or CTE.

Beginning with the class of 2022, SRCS requires a 220 unit diploma going above the state requirements with an additional year of English, an additional year of Math (with Math 1, Math 2, and Math 3 or equivalent required), 2 years of a single Foriegn Language, a year of art, a recommended CTE course as well as 4 other elective courses.

A 180 unit diploma is available by arrangement at Ridgway High School.

28% of our seniors qualified for the IPG last year, the overwhelming majority of which were for a 130 unit diploma. The increased graduation requirements were put in place without systemic support. It is expected that many more students will require an IGP to graduate this year, as the graduation requirements have risen.

This agenda item seems to be a review of the prior IGP. What is the timeline looking like for approving IGP 2.0? What is the implementation plan for rolling this out?

Can IGP 3.0 be rolled out simultaneously, so that scheduling for next year can be done appropriately this upcoming winter?

Is there anything offered to students who did not graduate last year?
