C.9. Public Comment on Non Agenda Items
SRTA members are invited to raise their hands and provide voice only comments during the meeting. Please observe the standard three minute time limit (and be prepared for a last minute change to a two minute limit). Only items not on the agenda are addressed at this time.
Comments are requested at the board meeting to bring a member’s perspective to the messages contained in this analysis and share real experiences of the impact of district policies and practices. Please commit to watching at least one board meeting this year, and speaking to an agenda item that impacts you or your students. Speakers are most impactful when they are well spoken, composed and reasonable.
E. DISCUSSION / ACTION ITEMS
E.1. (Action) Public Board Meetings Via Teleconference per AB 361
E.2. (Action) Resolution Proclaiming the Recognition of Administrative Professionals in May 2022
SRCS has remarkably expanded mental health services recently. SRTA knows that the utilization of these services for students relies on caring and observant members. SRTA encourages members who are experiencing personal difficulty to reach out for help.
Kudos to our school nurses who are an incredible group!
While SRCS has made strides to increase our nursing staff, we are still woefully shy of appropriate staffing ratios.
The California School Nurses Organization recommends one nurse to 1200 elementary students, one nurse to 1500 secondary students, and one nurse to 100 severely handicapped students.
E5. (Action) Consider Contract Approval of eduClimber Software by Illuminate Ed
Summary The Board will receive information on and consider approval of the contract with Illuminate Education for the eduCLIMBER data dashboard platform. Initial cost including the first year of service and training $111,464. Ongoing annual cost $91,964.
SRTA appreciates the sketched out implementation plan. Where will the comprehensive implementation plan be available including a matrix of who has access to what, and specifically who will be included in which training and when will these be held?
What is the plan for turning this data into actionable items? What are the expected actions relative to specific indicators? Where is this mapped out?
Have earlier data integrity issues with this program been resolved? Is the expectation they will not hinder full implementation of this tool?
The presenter for the Aeries program that was considered stated that under the current contract SRCS has full access to their monitoring program. SRTA supports allowing sites to utilize and individualize this program specifically to allow for monitoring of specific metrics for high school WASC monitoring.
E6. and 7 (Action) Issuance and Sale of a General Obligation Refunding Bonds of the District and Related Actions
Elementary Bond Sale: $23,100,000 Total Estimated Repayment: $32,541,642 Resolution 2022/22-56
When comparing this secondary contract to the elementary contract, SRTA is confused as to why issuing $900,000 more in bonds (an increase of 3.9%) leads to repayment of $2.5 million more (an increase of 7.7%).
Is this the last issuance of bonds?
What are the remaining specific items that this money will allow SRCS to address?
Where is SRCS at with updating the Facility Master Plan? When is the targeted start and completion of this expected?
Upon reflection, how would the process of spending of further bond monies be altered? It is recommended that SRCS invite stakeholder input and consultation with their union partners around these matters before embarking on another round of bonds, to ensure everyone is unified to help pass future measures.
EdJoin shows a total of 139 current postings for 258 job vacancies for SRCS. There are 162 certificated openings (92 more than last meeting), and 3+ certificated management openings with one a Secondary AP Pool. There are 160 current classified openings (52 more than last meeting), and no classified management positions (the same as last meeting.)
SRTA celebrates the approval of two additional people choosing to work less next year. Being flexible and supportive of staff needs allows retaining highly qualified staff for the long term while simultaneously building a more committed workforce.
SRTA congratulates the following members who have noticed their future retirements: Susan Cleek (HCMS) and AnneSullivan (PTES.) We also bid a fond farewell to the following resigning members Mercedes Castro (LBES), Zachary Hasbany (EAHS), Francine Leiphart (RHS), Megan Steward (T&L), and Rosa Martinez (EAHS). We are losing 67.5 years of wisdom and experience with your departure. Thank you for your service to our students!
There are three classified new hires. This month there is notice of three resignations and two retirements. They leave taking 34 years of institutional knowledge with them. We are grateful for their service to our students and staff.
There are three administrator resignations and one supervisory retirement after a combined 36 years of service. SRTA sends our appreciation to Rick Edson (Deputy Superintendent), Kimberlee Armstrong (Associate Superintendent of Ed. Services), Drew Morrison (Warehouse Manager) and John Kennedy (AP PHS) for your dedication to our students.
F.5. Approval of Contracts
Summary
#
Provider
Cost
Description
District
1
Matrix HG
$6,852
HVAC maintenance for main network rooms at various sites.
2
Informed K12
$36,968
Electronic internal office forms and workflow process to automatically collect signatures, route and track electronic forms.
3
SportsNet
$11,500
This program is used to manage all coaches and athletes 5 for all SRCS middle schools and the 5 comprehensive high schools.
In the January 12, 2022 contracts it was presented that upgrading the contract with Frontline for $207,400 would streamline HR processes and consolidate various other contracts including reducing the contract with Emics, Inc. dba Informed K12. In fact, this contract has increased from last year. It is stated that this contract is for a time of overlap while Frontline is more fully implemented. How long is this overlap expected to last? Is it wise to spend money and time creating new forms for a system that is being retired?
F.6. Approval of Acquisition of Instructional Mobile Devices, Hotspots, and Hotspot Service for Students and Staff
Summary
Hotspots: Purchase 500 @ $57 and provide service @ $13.50 per month. Units plus 12 months of service for a grand total of $109,500 (per the attached contract- not $138,000 as noted.)
Student Chromebooks: Purchase 10,150 @ $358 and 700 @ $403 for a total of $4,273,997.
Staff Pro-Books: Purchase 50 @ $1,137 for a total of $62,534
SRTA celebrates these purchases. There are identified students and staff that will benefit from the distribution of these items.
What is the plan for disbursing and recollecting these hotspots and student chromebooks? With a 20% damage rate, what is the process for utilizing warranties if there are problems? How is that messaged out?
What is the expectation for students who intentionally damage units?
F.7. Approval of Equipment Upgrades for Classified Personnel and Site and District Administrators
Summary
Staff Desktops: Purchase 225 @ $990 for a total of $243,988
There is no clear audience specified for this training nor metrics to evaluate this contract.
F.9. Approval of Physical Education Exemption

It appears that all students beyond freshman year would qualify for this exemption. All sophomores and juniors were sent information to apply. The results are as follows:

There is no data provided on the demographic breakdown of those that responded, but the rates of participation can be calculated.
The Two Year Exemption requires meeting several fitness standards during freshman year. The Permanent Exemption just requires that a student be in the 10th or 11th grade.
This exemption has the potential to severely impact our Physical Education program. Will PE remain a freshman year requirement?
Are there any other plans to reach out to qualifying students beyond the initial notification? The disparity in responses suggest this may not have been equitable notification for all families.
F.10. Approval of Proposed Job Description for Associate Superintendent / Chief Business Official of Business Services
Summary
The Board will consider approval of the proposed job description for Associate Superintendent / Chief Business Official (CBO) of Business Services.
The proposed salary for this diminished position has just been reduced by $2,234. This Associate Superintendent salary is $30,000 more than the other Assistant Superintendent positions.
F.11. Approval of Proposed Job Description for Assistant Superintendent of Educational Services
Summary
The job description appears unchanged except for a reduction from Associate Superintendent to Assistant Superintendent and an additional $1,706 in salary, bringing it to $172,706.
When the Deputy Superintendent position was first flown, it was a consolidation of two positions, and was promised to reduce expenses. Duties to oversee transportation, warehousing, facilities, food service, and maintenance remain. When duties for overseeing district technology were removed, there was no change in remuneration to the Deputy Superintendent. Now that this job is to be flown as a separate position it is clear that the end result is an increase to expenses by this salary.
F.13. Approval of Proposed Job Description for Communications Coordinator / Public Information Officer
Summary
Serves as a member of the Cabinet. Current posted salary starts at $105,565.
The elevation of this position to the cabinet level raises hope that district communication can continue to improve.
F.14. Approval of Resolution No. 2021/22-59 Designating Positions for Representative and Alternate to the Redwood Empire Schools’ Insurance Group’s Joint Powers Board
Summary
This will designate the Assistant Superintendent of Human Resources as the representative and the Executive Director of Fiscal Services as an alternate representative to the Redwood Empire Schools’ Insurance Group’s (RESIG) Joint Powers Authority Board.

It is the decision of the Commission to remove probation and restore accreditation status to Elsie Allen High School through June 30, 2027 with a mid-cycle visit during the 2023-2024 school year.
Congratulations to the staff of EAHS!
It is hoped that SRCS can create processes to actively support the WASC process at all high schools and avoid any future probationary notices.

C.9. Public Comment on Non Agenda Items
SRTA members are invited to raise their hands and provide voice only comments during the meeting. Please observe the standard three minute time limit (and be prepared for a last minute change to a two minute limit). Only items not on the agenda are addressed at this time.
Comments are requested at the board meeting to bring a member’s perspective to the messages contained in this analysis and share real experiences of the impact of district policies and practices.

E. DISCUSSION / ACTION ITEMS
E.1. (Action) Public Board Meetings Via Teleconference per AB 361
SRTA appreciates the switch to hybrid. It is hoped that the auditorium will be open to the public prior to a prompt 6 pm start of the meeting.
E.2. (Action) Resolution for May as Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month
This year the AAPI Heritage Month theme is “Advancing Leaders Through Collaboration.”
E.3. (Action) Resolution for Classified School Employee Week
SRCS and the SRCS Board of Education as we acknowledge and thank our classified employees for their hard work and dedication to ensure our schools’ success.
SRTA knows that our schools can’t function without our CSEA siblings. Members are encouraged to express their appreciation to the CSEA staff at their site.
Real appreciation would be shown not by a resolution, but by addressing the significant financial hardship working for our district as a CSEA employee entails. Our inability to attract and maintain staff is hindering our ability to function. Failing to retain employees creates additional strain with the evaporation of institutional knowledge. This year SRCS has hired 89 classified employees while 60 have resigned and 20 have retired. Nine additional employees isn’t significantly impacting systemic need when SRCS currently has 95 postings for 108 positions.
E.4. (Action) Resolution Celebrating SRCS Child Nutrition Services Professionals for the Week of May 2-6, 2022
SRTA recognizes the incredible lift endured by those with nutrition services as SRCS shifted to providing lunch for all students free of charge. The change in quantity is remarkable. Thank you to those who keep this program functioning.
E5. (Action) Resolution for Teacher Appreciation Week
Teaching can be a tough, complex job. As with any profession, there are days that are hard to get through. But for those who have committed their lives to the profession, they are joining the ranks of some of the brightest minds – and most important people – that students will come across in their lives.
SRTA acknowledges that this year has been identified by many as the hardest year ever. Thirty members have reduced their work day this year. Sixty have resigned, and to date there are twenty-five retirements.
True appreciation must include systemic changes to make teaching a doable job. While alluring for an immediate bandaid, lowering the bar for hiring is not a reasonable fix if we desire highly qualified individuals teaching students.
SRTA appreciates our substitutes! SRCS has been asked to provide a system for compensating staff members who are providing support for substitutes who have taken on long term positions by providing lesson plans, coaching and grading.
E7. (Discussion) A-G Completion Improvement Grant Plan
Summary
The Board will receive an update on the A-G Completion Improvement Grant Plan.
The board focused on Math the last time this item was agendized. SRTA members have been asked for input and a few themes emerged.
Create a Master Plan for Math in our District
Include a vertical plan for math, vertical alignment and communication.
Make grades in middle school count! Students can not succeed in high school without foundational skills from the middle school curriculum.
Ensure students memorize basic facts and use this information for problem solving so that it does not become a time consuming task leading to frustration and discouragement
Offer options for students who need more support or more time to understand concepts.
Utilize a curriculum that is not language intensive like CPM is.
Revisit Math Requirements and Courses
Not offering courses below Math 1 at High School fails to support students who enter high school unprepared
Requiring Math 1 and two years beyond is far above the state requirement of two years of math, including Algebra 1. The implementation of the waiver program to lower this requirement to Math one and 1 year beyond is still impacting our graduation rates.
Provide PD to thoroughly explore grading options and their implications
Implement a Support System
When a student misses out on Math instruction SRCS should implement a systemic response to catch them up
Smaller class sizes and no combos at elementary
Provide free in Person tutoring
Aides and volunteers in classrooms
Math Intervention Teachers
Provide single subject Math Teachers for fifth and sixth grade
EdJoin shows a total of 141 current postings for 267 job vacancies for SRCS, 12 more than last meeting. There are 70 certificated openings (36 more than last meeting), and 4+ certificated management openings, one is a Secondary AP Pool. There are 108 current classified openings (74 less than last meeting), and no classified management positions (the same as last meeting.)
SRTA celebrates the approval of two additional people choosing to work less next year. Being flexible and supportive of staff needs allows retaining highly qualified staff for the long term while simultaneously building a more committed workforce.
Welcome aboard VictoriaJuarez (EAHS). We hope you have a long and rewarding career with SRCS.
SRTA congratulates the following members who have noticed their future retirements: BarbaraO’Donnell (BHES), Kimberly Romero (HSMS) and Lori Chamberlin (EAHS.) Thank you for your combined 50 years of service to our students!
SRTA sends our fond farewells to those noticing their resignations: Sara Pringle (SRHS), Brenda Johnson (RVMS), DianaHines (HLES) and Bibiana Anzures (CCLA.) You take 10 combined years of service and experience with you. We wish you all the best in your future endeavors.
There are three classified new hires. This month there is notice of three resignations and one retirement. They leave taking 21 years of institutional knowledge with them. We are grateful for their service to our students and staff.
There is one administrator resignation and one retirement, after a combined 12 years of service. As we lose Karolina Gage (CCLA Principal), Beth Berk (Communication Coordinator) and Sydney Smith (SAF Director) SRTA sends our appreciation for your dedication to our students.
Secondary students made class selections in January. This early choice timeline was implemented a few years ago with the promise that it would allow the early posting of positions. Postings for next year have not yet been made available for in district transfers which are required before they are opened to outside candidates. The longer the wait, the more limited the field.
F.5. Approval of Future Educators Support (FED) and Elevo Contracts for Migrant Education Summer School

SRTA alienta a los miembros a asistir al menos a una reunión de la Mesa Directiva al año. Enviamos una invitación especial al personal de Comstock, Piner y SRHS para asistir a esta reunión en honor a los suyos.
C.7. Comentarios públicos sobre puntos que no están en la agenda
Se invita a los miembros de SRTA a levantar la mano y hacer comentarios solo de voz durante la reunión. Observe el límite de tiempo estándar de tres minutos (y esté preparado para un cambio de último minuto a un límite de dos minutos). En este momento, solo se tratan los temas que no están en la agenda.
Se solicitan comentarios en la reunión de la Mesa Directiva para traer la perspectiva de un miembro a los mensajes contenidos en este análisis y compartir experiencias reales del impacto de las políticas y prácticas del distrito. Comprométase a ver al menos una reunión de la Mesa Directiva este año y hablar sobre un tema de la agenda que lo afecte a usted oa sus estudiantes. Los oradores son más impactantes cuando hablan bien, se componen y son razonables.
E. PUNTOS DE DISCUSIÓN/ACCIÓN
E.1. (Acción) Reuniones públicas de la Mesa Directiva a través de teleconferencia según AB 361 SRTA aprecia el cambio a híbrido. Se espera que el auditorio esté abierto al público antes del inicio puntual de la reunión a las 6 pm.
SRTA aprecia que esta reunión será híbrida, lo que permitirá la asistencia en persona. No hay pautas publicadas sobre las medidas que se están adoptando para reunirse en SRHS. Se recomienda a aquellos que deseen asistir en persona que lleguen temprano para asegurar la admisión.
E.2. (Acción) Resolución para mayo como Mes de la Herencia de los Asiáticos Estadounidenses y de las Islas del Pacífico este año, el tema del Mes de la Herencia de AAPI es “Promoviendo líderes a través de la colaboración”.
E.3. (Acción) Resolución para la Semana del Empleado Escolar Clasificado
SRCS y la Mesa Directiva de Educación de SRCS al reconocer y agradecer a nuestros empleados clasificados por su arduo trabajo y dedicación para garantizar el éxito de nuestras escuelas.
SRTA sabe que nuestras escuelas no pueden funcionar sin nuestros hermanos CSEA. Se alienta a los miembros a expresar su agradecimiento al personal de CSEA en su sitio.
El aprecio real se mostraría no mediante una resolución, sino abordando las dificultades financieras significativas que implica trabajar para nuestro distrito como empleado de CSEA. Nuestra incapacidad para atraer y mantener al personal está obstaculizando nuestra capacidad para funcionar. No retener a los empleados crea una tensión adicional con la evaporación del conocimiento institucional. Este año SRCS ha contratado a 89 empleados clasificados mientras que 60 han renunciado y 20 se han jubilado. Nueve empleados adicionales no tienen un impacto significativo en la necesidad sistémica cuando SRCS actualmente tiene 95 publicaciones para 108 puestos.
E.4. (Acción) Resolución Celebrando a los profesionales de servicios de nutrición infantil de SRCS para la semana del 2 al 6 de mayo de 2022
SRTA reconoce el increíble impulso que apoyaron aquellos con servicios de nutrición cuando SRCS pasó a proporcionar almuerzos para todos los estudiantes de forma gratuita. El cambio en la cantidad es notable. Gracias a los que mantienen este programa funcionando.
E5. (Acción) Resolución para la Semana de Agradecimiento a los Maestros
La enseñanza puede ser un trabajo duro y complejo. Como con cualquier profesión, hay días que son difíciles de superar. Pero para aquellos que han comprometido sus vidas con la profesión, se unen a las filas de algunas de las mentes más brillantes, y las personas más importantes, que los estudiantes encontrarán en sus vidas.
SRTA reconoce que este año ha sido identificado por muchos como el año más difícil de la historia. Treinta miembros han reducido su jornada laboral este año. Sesenta han renunciado, ya la fecha hay veinticinco jubilaciones.
La verdadera apreciación debe incluir cambios sistémicos para hacer de la enseñanza un trabajo factible. Si bien es atractivo para una curita inmediata, bajar el nivel de contratación no es una solución razonable si deseamos que personas altamente calificadas enseñen a los estudiantes.
¡SRTA aprecia a nuestros sustitutos! Se le ha pedido a SRCS que proporcione un sistema para compensar a los miembros del personal que brindan apoyo a los sustitutos que han asumido puestos a largo plazo al proporcionar planes de lecciones, capacitación y calificación.
E7. (Discusión) Plan de subvención de mejora de finalización A-G
Resumen
La Mesa Directiva recibirá una actualización sobre el Plan de subvención para la mejora de la terminación A-G.
La Mesa Directiva se centró en Matemáticas la última vez que se programó este elemento. A los miembros de SRTA se les pidió su opinión y surgieron algunos temas.
Crear un Plan Maestro de Matemáticas en nuestro Distrito
Incluya un plan vertical para matemáticas, alineación vertical y comunicación.
¡Haga que las calificaciones en la escuela intermedia cuenten! Los estudiantes no pueden tener éxito en la escuela secundaria sin las habilidades fundamentales del plan de estudios de la escuela intermedia.
Asegúrese de que los estudiantes memoricen hechos básicos y usen esta información para resolver problemas de modo que no se convierta en una tarea que consuma mucho tiempo y que los lleve a la frustración y el desánimo.
Ofrezca opciones para los estudiantes que necesitan más apoyo o más tiempo para comprender los conceptos.
Utilice un plan de estudios que no sea intensivo en lenguaje como lo es CPM.
Revisar los requisitos y cursos de matemáticas
No ofrecer cursos por debajo de Matemáticas 1 en la escuela secundaria no apoya a los estudiantes que ingresan a la escuela secundaria sin preparación
Requerir Matemáticas 1 y dos años más está muy por encima del requisito estatal de dos años de matemáticas, incluyendo Álgebra 1. La implementación del programa de exención para reducir este requisito a Matemáticas uno y 1 año más todavía está afectando nuestras tasas de graduación.
Proporcionar PD para explorar a fondo las opciones de calificación y sus implicaciones
Implementar un Sistema de Apoyo
Cuando un estudiante pierde la instrucción de Matemáticas, SRCS debe implementar una respuesta sistémica para ponerse al día.
Clases más pequeñas y sin combos en la primaria.
Proporcionar tutoría gratuita en persona
Ayudantes y voluntarios en las aulas
Profesores de Intervención de Matemáticas
Proporcionar maestros de matemáticas de una sola materia para quinto y sexto grado
EdJoin muestra un total de 141 publicaciones actuales para 267 puestos vacantes para SRCS, 12 más que la última reunión. Hay 70 vacantes certificadas (36 más que la última reunión) y más de 4 vacantes certificadas de gestión, una es un grupo AP secundario. Hay 108 vacantes clasificadas actuales (74 menos que en la última reunión) y ningún puesto gerencial clasificado (igual que en la última reunión).
SRTA celebra la aprobación de dos personas adicionales que eligen trabajar menos el próximo año. Ser flexible y brindar apoyo a las necesidades del personal permite retener personal altamente calificado a largo plazo y, al mismo tiempo, crear una fuerza laboral más comprometida.
Bienvenida Victoria Juárez (EAHS). Esperamos que tenga una carrera larga y gratificante con SRCS.
SRTA felicita a los siguientes miembros que han notado sus futuras jubilaciones: Barbara O’Donnell (BHES), Kimberly Romero (HSMS) y Lori Chamberlin (EAHS). ¡Gracias por sus 50 años combinados de servicio a nuestros estudiantes!
SRTA envía nuestras cariñosas despedidas a quienes notan sus renuncias: Sara Pringle (SRHS), Brenda Johnson (RVMS), Diana Hines (HLES) y Bibiana Anzures (CCLA). Se llevan 10 años combinados de servicio y experiencia contigo. Le deseamos todo lo mejor en sus futuros emprendimientos.
Hay tres nuevas contrataciones de personal clasificado. Este mes hay aviso de tres renuncias y una jubilación. Se llevan 21 años de conocimiento institucional. Estamos agradecidos por su servicio a nuestros estudiantes y personal.
Hay una renuncia de administrador y una jubilación, después de un total de 12 años de servicio. A medida que perdemos a Karolina Gage (directora de CCLA), Beth Berk (coordinadora de comunicación) y Sydney Smith (directora de SAF), la SRTA envía nuestro agradecimiento por su dedicación a nuestros estudiantes.
Los estudiantes de secundaria hicieron selecciones de clase en enero. Este cronograma de elección anticipada se implementó hace algunos años con la promesa de que permitiría la publicación anticipada de puestos. Los puestos para el próximo año aún no están disponibles para las transferencias dentro del distrito que se requieren antes de que se abran a candidatos externos. Cuanto más larga sea la espera, más limitado será el campo.
F.5. Aprobación de Future Educators Support (FED) y Contratos Elevo para La Escuela de Verano de Migrant Education
El primer contrato se enfoca en cuatro proveedores de Aprendizaje socioemocional y Educación y actividad física proporcionados en coordinación con un TOSA de educación migrante. ($26,800)
El segundo contrato proporciona un maestro para abordar ELA y ELD para 73 estudiantes de K-5. ($29,200)

C.9. Public Comment on Non Agenda Items
SRTA members are invited to raise their hands and provide voice only comments during the meeting. Please observe the standard three minute time limit (and be prepared for a last minute change to a two minute limit). Only items not on the agenda are addressed at this time.
Comments are requested at the board meeting to bring a member’s perspective to the messages contained in this analysis and share real experiences of the impact of district policies and practices. Please commit to watching at least one board meeting this year, and speaking to an agenda item that impacts you or your students. Speakers are most impactful when they are well spoken, composed and reasonable.
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, including the use of a hybrid model.
SRTA appreciates that this meeting will be hybrid, allowing for in person attendance. There are no posted guidelines around measures being adopted for meeting at SRHS. Those wishing to attend in person are encouraged to arrive early to ensure admittance.
E.2. (Action) National Sexual Assault Awareness Month Resolution
SRTA appreciates this resolution providing transparency to this issue while encouraging all faculty, staff, and students to increase their knowledge of the many types of sexual violence and promote an environment of mutual respect and dignity in and outside of their campuses. Unfortunately, unless this resolution is supported with an implementation plan, action plan, and metric review, this does not actually increase knowledge or impact environments to impact the level of Sexual Assault Awareness on our campuses.
E.3. (Action) Declaration of Need for Fully Qualified Educators
Summary
SRCS is submitting these declarations to allow for the hiring of Limited Term Assignments and Emergency or Intern Permits. The need is stated as 45 for elementary (the same as last year) and 80 for secondary (25 more than last year.)
Our educational system is at a breaking point. The stress of this year is causing angst among all members of our community. This expected increase in need acknowledges the growing issue of an inability to attract and retain highly qualified teachers. The churn in administrators is even worse. Shrinking numbers of senior staff can no longer pick up all the pieces and continue to carry the load. While not as burdensome as having open positions, adding non-highly qualified teachers carries additional burdens of providing appropriate support. The impact of trauma on our system must be acknowledged and addressed.
E.4. (Discussion) YouthTruth Update
Summary
In January 2021, Santa Rosa City Schools administered surveys across all sites, including students, staff, and families. The effort resulted in hearing from 14,950 stakeholders on topics that include academic challenge, school culture, and emotional and mental health. This is provided through a $30,700 contract.
This slide deck presents data from the Youth truth Survey. Unfortunately, the detailed data is only provided for the elementary level responses.
Cross Cutting Themes:
Students perceive a decline in relationships and culture, across all levels.
Families perceive a decline in relationships, across all levels.
Staff perceive a decline in engagement, relationships and culture as well as identifying as most currently impacted by covid, across all levels.
12 of the 15 indicators that have dropped 20 percentage points or more are from middle school responses.
While it is helpful to be able to compare data across sites, within the county, state and nation, it can be confusing to discern what the intention of the answers were to particular questions. Perhaps revisiting some of these questions with stakeholder groups (student, parent and staff) could shed helpful light on appropriate responses to this data.
SRTA is resolute that the burden of change requires a thoughtful and fully funded action plan specifying implementation roll out and expected impact on metrics. This can not be solved by staff just ‘working harder.’
This platform is hailed as being customizable. It could be used to provide annual benchmarks required for site SPSA reviews and the high school WASC process. Unfortunately it is currently under utilized. The ability to individualize for sites has not been activated.
E5. (Discussion) LCAP Timeline
Summary
The Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) outlines the actions and services being carried out throughout the year to help reach district goals for students. The LCAP data collection process will conclude on May 10th. After all LCAP stakeholder meetings, comments will be reviewed. It is anticipated that a draft LCAP document with updates may be ready for community presentation in late May to early June.The LCAP is supported with $19 million dollars.
Stakeholder Meetings:
3/31/22 District Advisory Committee @ 6 pm *COMPLETED*
SRTA appreciates the response of SRCS to create this model to collect feedback on the LCAP. The district LCAP can only benefit from a more transparent and inclusive process of review.
All stakeholders are encouraged to take the survey and attend the Zoom sessions to provide feedback and input.
EdJoin shows a total of 131 current postings for 255 job vacancies for SRCS, 18 more than last meeting. 16 of these are coaching positions. There are 70 certificated openings (13 more than last meeting), and 3 certificated management openings (4 less than last meeting.) There are 182 current classified openings (9 more than last meeting), and no classified management positions (the same as last meeting.)
82 of these open positions have been posted on EdJoin for longer than three months. Are we utilizing other platforms to advertise?
SRTA celebrates the approval of an unpaid leave of absence for next year. Being flexible and supportive of staff needs allows us to retain highly qualified staff for the long term while simultaneously building a more committed workforce.
Welcome aboard VictoriaJuarez (EAHS). We hope you have a long and rewarding career with SRCS.
SRTA congratulates the following members who have noticed their future retirements: VictoriaMcFarlin (ABES), Jennifer Sills(SRCAS), Darlene Sweetland (SPSV), Lori Chamberlin (EAHS.) Thank you for your combined 64 years of service to our students!
SRTA sends our fond farewells to those noticing their resignations: Alice Jobson (SRCAS), Janie Kennedy (EAHS), Kayle Manuta (SRHS), Neil Sheikh (RHS) and Ursula Ahajanian (RHS.) You take 12 combined years of service and experience with you. We wish you all the best in your future endeavors.
There are three classified new hires. This month there is notice of five resignations and one retirement. They leave taking 58 years of institutional knowledge with them. We are grateful for their service to our students and staff.
There are two administrator resignations, after a combined 6 years of service, and one more principal is hired for summer school.
Secondary students made class selections in January. This early choice program was implemented a few years ago with the promise that it would allow the early posting of positions. Posting in March, as promised, would allow for the broadest spectrum of candidates. Positions post for in district transfers before they are opened to outside candidates. The longer the wait, the more limited the field.

North Bay Trades Introduction Program (NB BCTC-NB TIP)
$0
Three Women in Construction summer camps. TradesWomen Inc. instructor to work with SRCS funded teacher. Camp content would include a discussion of pathways, apprenticeships, safety, teamwork, basic rights and responsibilities, and taking students through a project’s approval, design, resource coordination and ordering, construction and delivery process. First Aid certification included in the program.
It is exciting to see this new Woman in Construction summer camp. Can SRCS ensure that all families will receive invitations to utilize this program? Equitable access begins with robust communication to ensure all have an opportunity to participate. Recent events have taught us that ParentSquare is not sufficient on its own. Will detailed communication about each of this program go to all teachers so they can help with the recruitment process?
A contract for Corina Hui LLC was approved on Oct . 13, 2021 for $50,000 for Professional Development and design sessions for diverse stakeholders that would meet the requirements for offering robust CTE Program (s) and a K-12 dual immersion “pipeline” at EAHS with CCLA. That contract was extended on Jan 12, 2022 for an additional $50,000. This current contract appears to pay an additional $50,000 for these same services.
F.6. Approval: Side by Side Contract – YouThrive Curriculum for CCLA
Summary
A challenge this year at CCLA has been to better support at-risk youth learn to manage their social-emotional needs after coming back to school after a year and a half in distance learning. This has resulted in multiple challenging behavioral outcomes and has created an unhealthy culture and climate at the school. The YouThrive program was identified as a potential partner because of their success in working with students who have been referred by the school administration or law enforcement. $17,750
SRTA and CSEA 75 support the board’s adoption of these calendars. Many of our classified employees do not follow the instructional calendar. There is a need to make these calendars easily available by posting at each site and on the district website.
F.8. Approval of Proposed Revisions to the Certificated Psychologist, Speech-Language Pathologist, and Nurse Salary Schedule 2021-2022

SRTA alienta a los miembros a asistir al menos a una reunión de la Mesa Directiva al año. Enviamos una invitación especial al personal de LBES/LH, RVMS/ SRACS para asistir a esta reunión en honor a los suyos.
C.7. Comentarios públicos sobre puntos que no están en la agenda
Se invita a los miembros de SRTA a levantar la mano y hacer comentarios solo de voz durante la reunión. Observe el límite de tiempo estándar de tres minutos (y esté preparado para un cambio de último minuto a un límite de dos minutos). En este momento, solo se tratan los temas que no están en la agenda.
Se solicitan comentarios en la reunión de la Mesa Directiva para traer la perspectiva de un miembro a los mensajes contenidos en este análisis y compartir experiencias reales del impacto de las políticas y prácticas del distrito. Comprométase a ver al menos una reunión de la Mesa Directiva este año y hablar sobre un tema de la agenda que lo afecte a usted oa sus estudiantes. Los oradores son más impactantes cuando hablan bien, se componen y son razonables.
E. PUNTOS DE DISCUSIÓN/ACCIÓN
E.1. (Acción) Reuniones públicas de la Mesa Directiva a través de teleconferencia según AB 361
La Mesa Directiva considerará la continuación de la realización de reuniones públicas de forma virtual, incluido el uso de un modelo híbrido.
SRTA aprecia que esta reunión será híbrida, lo que permitirá la asistencia en persona. No hay pautas publicadas sobre las medidas que se están adoptando para reunirse en SRHS. Se recomienda a aquellos que deseen asistir en persona que lleguen temprano para asegurar la admisión.
E.2. (Acción) Resolución del Mes Nacional de Concientización sobre la Agresión Sexual
SRTA agradece esta resolución que brinda transparencia a este problema y al mismo tiempo alienta a todos los profesores, el personal y los estudiantes a aumentar su conocimiento sobre los muchos tipos de violencia sexual y promover un entorno de respeto mutuo y dignidad dentro y fuera de sus campus. Desafortunadamente, a menos que esta resolución esté respaldada por un plan de implementación, un plan de acción y una revisión de métricas, esto en realidad no aumenta el conocimiento ni impacta los entornos para impactar el nivel de Concientización sobre la Agresión Sexual en nuestros campus.
E.3. (Acción) Declaración de Necesidad de Educadores Completamente Calificados
Resumen
SRCS está presentando estas declaraciones para permitir la contratación de Asignaciones de Plazo Limitado y Permisos de Emergencia o Internos. La necesidad se expresa en 45 para primaria (igual que el año pasado) y 80 para secundaria (25 más que el año pasado).
Nuestro sistema educativo está en un punto de ruptura. El estrés de este año está causando angustia entre todos los miembros de nuestra comunidad. Este aumento esperado en la necesidad reconoce el creciente problema de la incapacidad para atraer y retener a maestros altamente calificados. La rotación de administradores es aún peor. El número de personal con experiencia cada vez es menor, ellos ya no pueden recoger todas las piezas y continuar llevando la carga. Si bien no es tan oneroso como tener vacantes, agregar maestros no altamente calificados conlleva la carga adicional de brindar el apoyo adecuado. El impacto del trauma en nuestro sistema debe ser reconocido y abordado.
E.4. (Discusión) Actualización de YouthTruth
Resumen
En enero de 2021, las Escuelas de la Ciudad de Santa Rosa administraron encuestas en todos los sitios, incluidos los estudiantes, el personal y las familias. El esfuerzo resultó en escuchar a 14,950 partes interesadas sobre temas que incluyen desafíos académicos, cultura escolar y salud emocional y mental. Esto se proporciona a través de un contrato de $30,700.
Esta plataforma de diapositivas presenta datos de la Encuesta sobre la verdad de los jóvenes. Desafortunadamente, los datos detallados solo se proporcionan para las respuestas de nivel elemental.
Temas transversales:
Los estudiantes perciben una disminución en las relaciones y la cultura, en todos los niveles.
Las familias perciben un declive en las relaciones, en todos los niveles.
El personal percibe una disminución en el compromiso, las relaciones y la cultura, además de identificarse como los más afectados actualmente por covid, en todos los niveles.
12 de los 15 indicadores que han bajado 20 puntos porcentuales o más son de las respuestas de la escuela intermedia.
Si bien es útil poder comparar datos entre sitios, dentro del condado, estado y nación, puede ser confuso discernir cuál era la intención de las respuestas a preguntas particulares. Quizás revisar algunas de estas preguntas con grupos de partes interesadas (estudiantes, padres y personal) podría arrojar luz útil sobre las respuestas apropiadas a estos datos.
SRTA está decidida a que la carga del cambio requiere un plan de acción reflexivo y totalmente financiado que especifique el despliegue de la implementación y el impacto esperado en las métricas. Esto no puede ser resuelto por el personal simplemente ‘trabajando más duro’.
Esta plataforma es aclamada por ser personalizable. Podría usarse para proporcionar puntos de referencia anuales requeridos para las revisiones del SPSA del sitio y el proceso WASC de la escuela secundaria. Desafortunadamente, actualmente está infrautilizado. No se ha activado la capacidad de individualizar para sitios.
E5. (Discusión) Cronología del LCAP
Resumen
El Plan de responsabilidad y control local (LCAP, por sus siglas en inglés) describe las acciones y los servicios que se llevan a cabo a lo largo del año para ayudar a alcanzar las metas del distrito para los estudiantes. El proceso de recopilación de datos LCAP concluirá el 10 de mayo. Después de todas las reuniones de partes interesadas LCAP, se revisarán los comentarios. Se prevé que un borrador del documento LCAP con actualizaciones pueda estar listo para su presentación a la comunidad a finales de mayo o principios de junio. El LCAP cuenta con $19 millones de dólares.
Reuniones de partes interesadas:
3/31/22 District Advisory Committee @ 6 pm *COMPLETED*
SRTA agradece la respuesta de SRCS para crear este modelo para recopilar comentarios sobre el LCAP. El LCAP del distrito sólo puede beneficiarse de un proceso de revisión más transparente e inclusivo.
Se alienta a todas las partes interesadas a realizar la encuesta y asistir a las sesiones de Zoom para brindar comentarios y aportes.

Hay dos renuncias de administradores, después de 6 años combinados de servicio, y se contrata a un director más para la escuela de verano.
Los estudiantes de secundaria hicieron selecciones de clases en enero. Este programa de elección anticipada se implementó hace unos años con la promesa de que permitiría la publicación anticipada de puestos. La publicación en marzo, como se prometió, permitiría un espectro más amplio de candidatos. Puestos de trabajo para transferencias de distrito antes de que se abran a candidatos externos. Cuanto más larga sea la espera, más limitado será el campo.

$0
Tres campamentos de verano de Mujeres en la Construcción. Instructora de Trades Women Inc. para trabajar con maestra financiada por SRCS. El contenido del campamento incluiría una discusión sobre los caminos, los aprendizajes, la seguridad, el trabajo en equipo, los derechos y responsabilidades básicas, y llevaría a los estudiantes a través del proceso de aprobación, diseño, coordinación y pedido de recursos, construcción y entrega de un proyecto. Certificación de Primeros Auxilios incluida en el programa.
Es emocionante ver este nuevo campamento de verano de Women in Construction. ¿Puede SRCS garantizar que todas las familias recibirán invitaciones para utilizar este programa? El acceso equitativo comienza con una comunicación sólida para garantizar que todos tengan la oportunidad de participar. Los eventos recientes nos han enseñado que ParentSquare no es suficiente por sí solo. ¿Se enviará una comunicación detallada sobre cada uno de estos programas a todos los maestros para que puedan ayudar con el proceso de contratación?
El 1 de octubre se aprobó un contrato para Corina Hui LLC. el 13 de enero de 2021 por $50,000 para sesiones de diseño y desarrollo profesional para diversas partes interesadas que cumplirían con los requisitos para ofrecer programas sólidos de CTE y una “línea” de inmersión dual K-12 en EAHS con CCLA. Ese contrato se extendió el 12 de enero de 2022 por $50,000 adicionales. Este contrato actual parece pagar $50,000 adicionales por estos mismos servicios.
F.6. Aprobación: Contrato lado a lado – Plan de estudios YouThrive para CCLA
Resumen
Un desafío este año en CCLA ha sido apoyar mejor a los jóvenes en riesgo para que aprendan a manejar sus necesidades socioemocionales después de regresar a la escuela después de un año y medio de aprendizaje a distancia. Esto ha resultado en múltiples resultados conductuales desafiantes y ha creado una cultura y un clima poco saludable en la escuela. El programa YouThrive fue identificado como un socio potencial debido a su éxito al trabajar con estudiantes que han sido referidos por la administración escolar o la policía. $17,750
SRTA y CSEA 75 apoyan la adopción de estos calendarios por parte de la Mesa Directiva. Muchos de nuestros empleados clasificados no siguen el calendario de instrucción. Existe la necesidad de hacer que estos calendarios estén fácilmente disponibles publicándose en cada sitio y en el sitio web del distrito.

D. REPORTS
D.7. Made in Santa Rosa Foundation Report (Lisa Alexander, Executive Director)
SRTA appreciates this opportunity for an update on this SRCS Foundation.
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, as specified in Assembly Bill (AB) 361.
The board has agreed to move to hybrid meetings. They allowed several weeks for working out the details of this transition, potentially returning to City Hall. It is expected that this item will lay out the details for returning to in person meeting with the addition of allowing virtual participation.
E.2. (Action) Resolution Designating April 2022 as School Library Month
Summary
Our libraries are central locations on our school campuses, valued and appreciated by our school communities. The work to create a Library Strategic Plan took place last year and is continuing this year. Honoring our libraries and those that work so hard to make them the special places they are is a recognition of their positive impact.
SRTA is excited to hear of a Library Strategic Plan. Is there a draft available? What is the process in developing this plan? Will there be opportunity for stakeholder input?
The heart of our libraries were gutted when in hard times our Librarians were eliminated. While honoring our Library techs, there is an enormous need for actual librarians to facilitate the many facets of a highly functioning library.
E.3. (Action) Approval of a Second Addendum Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) reached with SRCS and SRTA regarding Safe Return to School Guidelines
Summary
This MOU was ratified by the members of SRTA on March 21, 2022.
The County of Sonoma has rescinded Order C19-32, dated March 7, 2022, so there are no longer masking requirements for adults on campus. Unvaccinated or unverified unit personnel shall continue to be tested for COVID-19 at least once per week.
This MOU allows for a return to required masks should they be required again.
On February 28, 2022 the California Department Public Health issued revised guidelines for K-12 settings. These guidelines allow for local jurisdictions to consider changing indoor masking requirements from “required” to “Strongly Recommended”.
Weekly pool testing has been reduced to twice-monthly.
The agenda says there will be a future board meeting to discuss the use of the proceeds from this sale. SRTA understands from extensive earlier board meetings that the district is committed to using the proceeds to establish a program to assist employees with home ownership. Given the ongoing market conditions, having this program ready to implement upon sale would be best for employees.
EdJoin shows a total of 120 current postings for 237 job vacancies for SRCS, 15 less than last meeting. 18 of these are coaching positions. There are 57 certificated openings (7 more than last meeting), and 7 certificated management openings (7 more than last meeting.) There are 173 current classified openings (15 less than last meeting), and no classified management positions (the same as last meeting.)
SRTA celebrates the approval of 4 job shares and 2 reduced workloads for next year. SRTA now has 77 members serving as part time (0.2 FTE) AB 130 ISP teachers.
SRTA congratulates the following members who have noticed their future retirements: DavidFranzman (SRHS), Tammy Lovitt (SRHS), Roger Page (RVMS), Susan Markcity (SPSV). Thank you for your combined 42.5 years of service to our students!
SRTA sends our fond farewells to those noticing their resignations: Jennifer Cadden (SRHS), Allison Woodside (SRACS). You take 13 combined years of service and experience with you. We wish you all the best in your future endeavors.
There is one classified new hire. This month there is notice of five resignations. They leave taking 14 years of institutional knowledge with them.
There is one administrator resignation, after 2 months of service, and seven principals are hired for summer school programs.

It is exciting to see summer opportunities taking shape for students. Can SRCS ensure that all families will receive invitations to utilize these programs? Equitable access begins with robust communication to ensure all have an opportunity to participate. Recent events have taught us that ParentSquare is not sufficient on its own. Will detailed communication about each of these programs go to all teachers so they can help with the recruitment process?
There was a contract approved on January 12th with Maxim Healthcare Staffing for Administrative Assistants for sites at $45/hour plus agency costs. Will this contract be activated to assist our site Administrators?

D. INFORMES
D.7. Informe de la Fundación Made in Santa Rosa (Lisa Alexander, Directora Ejecutiva)
SRTA agradece esta oportunidad de una actualización sobre esta Fundación SRCS.
E. PUNTOS DE DISCUSIÓN/ACCIÓN
E.1. (Acción) Reuniones públicas de la Mesa Directiva a través de teleconferencia según AB 361
La Mesa Directiva considerará la continuación de la realización de reuniones públicas virtualmente, como se especifica en el Proyecto de Ley de la Asamblea (AB) 361.
La Mesa Directiva ha acordado pasar a reuniones híbridas. Permitieron varias semanas para resolver los detalles de esta transición, posiblemente regresando al Ayuntamiento. Se espera que este elemento establezca los detalles para volver a la reunión en persona con la adición de permitir la participación virtual.
E.2. (Acción) Resolución que designa abril de 2022 como Mes de la Biblioteca Escolar
Resumen
Nuestras bibliotecas son ubicaciones centrales en los campus de nuestras escuelas, valoradas y apreciadas por nuestras comunidades escolares. El trabajo para crear un Plan Estratégico de la Biblioteca se llevó a cabo el año pasado y continúa este año. Honrar a nuestras bibliotecas ya aquellos que trabajan arduamente para convertirlas en los lugares especiales que son es un reconocimiento de su impacto positivo.
SRTA se complace en escuchar acerca de un Plan Estratégico de la Biblioteca. ¿Hay un borrador disponible? ¿Cuál es el proceso para desarrollar este plan? ¿Habrá oportunidad para el aporte de las partes interesadas?
El corazón de nuestras bibliotecas fue destruido cuando en tiempos difíciles nuestros Bibliotecarios fueron eliminados. Mientras honramos a nuestros técnicos bibliotecarios, existe una enorme necesidad de bibliotecarios reales para facilitar las muchas facetas de una biblioteca de alto funcionamiento.
E.3. (Acción) Aprobación de un Memorando de Entendimiento (MOU) del segundo apéndice alcanzado con SRCS y SRTA con respecto a las pautas de regreso seguro a la escuela
Resumen
Este MOU fue ratificado por los miembros de SRTA el 21 de marzo de 2022.
El Condado de Sonoma ha rescindido la Orden C19-32, con fecha del 7 de marzo de 2022, por lo que ya no existen requisitos de mascarillas para adultos en el campus. El personal de la unidad no vacunado o no verificado deberá continuar haciéndose la prueba de COVID-19 al menos una vez por semana.
Este MOU permite volver a las máscaras requeridas en caso de que se requieran nuevamente.
El voto de ratificación mostró un fuerte apoyo al MOU por parte de los miembros de la SRTA.
E.4. (Acción) Actualizaciones de COVID Programa de prevención (CPP) y revisiones del manual de COVID-19
Resumen
El 28 de febrero de 2022, el Departamento de Salud Pública de California emitió pautas revisadas para entornos K-12. Estas pautas permiten que las jurisdicciones locales consideren cambiar los requisitos de uso de máscaras en interiores de “obligatorio” a “muy recomendable”.
Las pruebas semanales en grupo se han reducido a dos veces al mes.
La agenda dice que habrá una futura reunión de la Mesa Directiva para discutir el uso de las ganancias de esta venta. SRTA entiende por amplias reuniones anteriores de la Mesa Directiva que el distrito está comprometido a utilizar los ingresos para establecer un programa para ayudar a los empleados con la propiedad de la vivienda. Dadas las condiciones actuales del mercado, tener este programa listo para implementarse en el momento de la venta sería lo mejor para los empleados.
EdJoin muestra un total de 120 publicaciones actuales para 237 puestos vacantes para SRCS, 15 menos que la última reunión. 18 de estos son puestos de entrenador. Hay 57 vacantes certificadas (7 más que en la última reunión) y 7 vacantes certificadas en gestión (7 más que en la última reunión). Hay 173 vacantes clasificadas actuales (15 menos que en la última reunión) y ningún puesto gerencial clasificado (lo mismo que en la última reunión). reunión.)
SRTA celebra la aprobación de 4 puestos de trabajo compartidos y 2 cargas de trabajo reducidas para el próximo año. SRTA ahora tiene 77 miembros que se desempeñan como maestros de tiempo parcial (0.2 FTE) AB 130 ISP.
SRTA felicita a los siguientes miembros que han notado sus futuras jubilaciones: David Franzman (SRHS), Tammy Lovitt (SRHS), Roger Page (RVMS), Susan Markcity (SPSV). ¡Gracias por sus 42.5 años combinados de servicio a nuestros estudiantes!
SRTA envía nuestras cariñosas despedidas a quienes notan sus renuncias: Jennifer Cadden (SRHS), Allison Woodside (SRACS). Se llevan 13 años combinados de servicio y experiencia contigo. Le deseamos todo lo mejor en sus futuros emprendimientos.

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.
EdJoin shows a total of 127 current postings for 252 job vacancies for SRCS, 4 more than last meeting. 20 of these are coaching positions.

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.

E. PUNTOS DE DISCUSIÓN/ACCIÓN
E.1. (Acción) Reuniones públicas de la Mesa Directiva a través de teleconferencia según AB 361
La Mesa Directiva considerará la continuación de la realización de reuniones públicas virtualmente, como se especifica en el Proyecto de Ley de la Asamblea (AB) 361.
E.2. (Discusión) Trabajo de diseño de EAHS/CCLA
Resumen
Este tema de discusión es sobre el Modelo de la Nueva Escuela, que se centra en el desarrollo de una tubería de inmersión dual (Dual Immersion) K-12 desde CCLA hasta Elsie Allen, el progreso en el diseño de un modelo de Casa Mundial (World House) y la expansión de las ofertas de Educación Técnica Profesional en Elsie Allen.
El otoño de 2022 parece el inicio de estos programas. En concreto, ¿en qué consistirán los programas World House y Dual Immersion? ¿Cómo se implementarán? ¿Cómo se utilizará el Ciclo de Indagación para la mejora continua?
E.3. (Acción) Aprobación del Delegado de CSBA
Resumen
La Mesa Directiva considerará su voto para la Elección de Asamblea de Delegados de CSBA de 2022.
E.4. (Acción) Consideración de nuevas pautas de enmascaramiento del Departamento de Salud Pública de California
Resumen
El 28 de febrero de 2022, el Departamento de Salud Pública de California emitió pautas revisadas para entornos K-12. Estas pautas permiten que las jurisdicciones locales consideren cambiar los requisitos de uso de máscaras en interiores de “obligatorio” a “muy recomendable”.
Los equipos de negociación de SRCS y SRTA están programados para reunirse el día después de la reunión de la Mesa Directiva para negociar un MOU actualizado sobre las condiciones de trabajo relacionadas con el cambio en los requisitos de uso de mascarillas.
E.5 (Acción) Aprobación del Segundo Informe Fiscal Interino 2021-22 con Certificación Positiva
Resumen
La Mesa Directiva considerará la aprobación del Segundo Informe Interino 2021-22 con certificación positiva.
En febrero la Mesa Directiva aprobó planes de Estabilización Fiscal para reducciones de $5,322,397 en 2021-2022, $22,258,868 en 2022-2023 y $21,267,170 en 2023-2024. Estos no se muestran de manera obvia en el documento de proyección multianual.

Resumen
La Mesa Directiva considerará la aprobación de la Resolución No. 2021/22-40 seleccionando la propuesta de Christopherson Builders para la venta de la Propiedad Fir Ridge (APN 173-620-030).
¿Qué tan pronto después de que se realice esta venta (con suerte en octubre de 2022) SRCS implementará un programa para ayudar a los empleados con la propiedad de la vivienda? ¿Qué implica la creación de este programa?
E7. (Discusión) Plan de subvención de mejora de finalización A-G
Resumen
SRCS está solicitando una subvención de $1.3 millones para usar durante los próximos tres años para mejorar las tasas de finalización A-G. Una revisión rápida de los datos de la clase de graduación del año pasado deja en claro la necesidad de abordar los problemas de las tasas de graduación y finalización.

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.
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.
F7. Aprobación de la solución de equilibrio de carga, failover automático e independiente de la alimentación para la nueva red de área amplia (WAN) de fibra oscura

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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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), MarlenaHirsch (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.

Summary

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?

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.
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.
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.
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.
EdJoin muestra un total de 120 publicaciones actuales para 248 puestos vacantes para SRCS, 10 más que la última reunión. 19 de estos son puestos de entrenador. Hay 50 vacantes certificadas (igual que en la última reunión) y trece vacantes certificadas en gestión (11 más que en la última reunión). 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.
Hay una jubilación de supervisor, después de 19 años de servicio a nuestros estudiantes y personal.

Resumen
La Mesa Directiva considerará aprobar el proyecto de Calendario de Empleados Clasificados 2022-2023 con 242 días de trabajo que ha sido negociado y aprobado por ambas partes.

Resumen
La Mesa Directiva considerará la aprobación de la propuesta para instalar una nueva estructura de patio de recreo en la Escuela Primaria Hidden Valley. Será financiado por la asociación de padres (50 %) y los fondos del seguro de Tubbs Fire (50 %).
¡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?

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 Recognizing February as Career Technical Education Month
Summary
The Board will consider approval of Resolution No. 2021/22-31 recognizing February as Career Technical Education Month for Santa Rosa City Schools.
SRTA honors all our CTE teachers, especially for the soft skills they develop in our students. A robust CTE program provides educational options for students and improves entry level qualifications.
E.3. (Action) Approval of Board Member School Site Liaison Assignments for 2022
SRTA encourages members to reach out to their liaison!
E.4. and 5 Public Hearing and Action: Santa Rosa French-American Charter School Request for Material Revision to Charter
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.
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.
E6. (Discussion) Public Hearing: Impact of 2020 Census Data on Trustee Area Map Population Balance and Proposed Adjusted Maps
Summary
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.
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.

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
SRTA joins SRCS in acknowledging, affirming and applauding the hard work and contributions by our school counselors on behalf of students.
E8. and E9. Public Hearing and Action: Naming of the Santa Rosa High School Track in honor of retired coach Doug Courtemarche
Summary
The Board will consider naming the Santa Rosa High School Track after Track and Field Coach Doug Courtemarche who retired after 27 years in the district. It is not clear that the site has approved this measure.
E10. and E11. Public Hearing and Action: CSEA Chapter 75 “Sunshine” Proposals for Contract Reopeners with SRCS for 2022-2023
Summary
CSEA Chapter 75 is opening Article 12: Holidays – Placement of Holidays and Two Professional Development Days and Article 13: Compensation – Fair and Equitable Living Wage increase.
All unit members will provide proof of being fully vaccinated. Unit members who refuse to declare or are unable to prove vaccination status shall get tested for COVID-19 twice per week.
Unit members who are subject to the COVID-19 Test Requirements must wear FDA-cleared surgical masks or respirators in indoor work settings unless exempted.
SRTA members are currently in the process of ratifying this MOU Amendment.
E11. (Discussion) The 2022-23 Governor’s Budget Proposal
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.”
EdJoin shows a total of 123 current postings for 253 job vacancies for SRCS, 17 less than last month. 27 of these are coaching positions. There are 46 certificated openings (seven less than last month), and two certificated management openings (one less than last month.) There are 204 current classified openings (nine less than last month), and one classified management position (the same as last month.)
SRTA welcomes the three certificated new hires: Kellee Oxsen (BHES), Amanda Courdy (SPSV) and Amy Waud-Reiter (ARTS). We bid farewell to the resigning Elizabeth Irving (SLES).
There are four classified hires with three resignations and one retirement taking 47 years of institutional knowledge with them.

F6. Approval of Consulting Services for Mentoring and Coaching for the State and Federal Programs Department
Summary
The Board will consider the approval of the consultant contract for Elena Cabrera, M.Ed for mentoring and coaching support for the State and Federal Programs Department at $225 per hour. A schedule of hours or a limit not to be exceeded was not located in the contract.
The Board will consider approving the contract between Be A Mentor, Inc. and Santa Rosa City Schools for implementing a hosted software agreement for the use of a Volunteer Management System (VMS). SRCS will pay $6300 plus $25 per applicant.
The requirements for volunteers need interpretation. At this time, they seem prohibitive to getting anyone on site, or on field trips to work with students.
How will this program be evaluated prior to renewal? When will training for users occur?

E. PUNTOS DE DISCUSIÓN/ACCIÓN
E.1. (Acción) Reuniones públicas de la Mesa Directiva través de teleconferencia según AB 361
Resumen
La Mesa Directiva considerará la continuación de la realización de reuniones públicas virtualmente, como se especifica en el Proyecto de Ley de la Asamblea (AB) 361.
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?
¿Qué cambios de resultados específicos se esperan al repetir esta encuesta el próximo año? ¿Qué acciones se emprenderán para apoyar esos cambios y quién es responsable de ellos? ¿Cómo se implementarán estos cambios para garantizar el éxito?
E.3. (Discusión) Audiencia pública: Impacto de los datos del censo de 2020 en el balance de población del mapa del área de fideicomisarios y mapas ajustados propuestos
Resumen
Con los nuevos datos del censo, los Mapas del Área de Fideicomisarios actuales no cumplen. Los ajustes deben ser aprobados por la Mesa Directiva antes de marzo.
E5. (Discusión) Actualización de Rutas Seguras a las Escuelas
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.
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
El tema para 2022 se centra en la importancia de Black Health and Wellness. Este tema reconoce el legado de los académicos y médicos negros en la medicina occidental y considera las actividades, los rituales y las iniciativas que las comunidades negras han realizado para estar bien.
SRTA se une a SRCS para reconocer, afirmar y aplaudir el arduo trabajo y las contribuciones de nuestros consejeros escolares en nombre de los estudiantes.

Resumen
La Mesa Directiva considerará nombrar la pista de Santa Rosa High School en honor al entrenador de atletismo Doug Courtemarche, quien se retiró después de 27 años en el distrito. No está claro que la escuela haya aprobado esta medida.
E10. y E11. Audiencia pública y acción: Propuestas “Sunshine” del Capítulo 75 de la CSEA para la reapertura de contratos con SRCS para 2022-2023
Resumen
El Capítulo 75 de CSEA abre el Artículo 12: Días festivos – Colocación de días festivos y dos días de desarrollo profesional y el Artículo 13: Compensación – Aumento justo y equitativo del salario digno.
Todos los miembros de la unidad proporcionarán prueba de estar completamente vacunados. Los miembros de la unidad que se nieguen a declarar o no puedan probar el estado de vacunación deberán hacerse la prueba de COVID-19 dos veces por semana.

Los miembros de SRTA se encuentran actualmente en el proceso de ratificar esta enmienda al MOU.
E11. (Discusión) Propuesta de presupuesto del gobernador para 2022-23
Resumen
Se espera que la propuesta de presupuesto se reduzca por el impacto de Omicron en las finanzas estatales.
Varias prioridades actuales deben continuar.
Ahora se requiere que SRCS realice una revisión de mitad de año del LCAP para fines de febrero.
“Los mayores desafíos para las escuelas no se resuelven fácilmente en el presupuesto: fatiga de COVID, escasez de personal, asistencia inestable, confusión sobre los protocolos de salud/seguridad, enorme tiempo y energía dedicados a cuestiones ajenas a la enseñanza y el aprendizaje básicos”.

Los SARC están organizados por el Departamento de Educación de California en http://sarconline.org. SRCS no tiene credenciales de inicio de sesión para actualizarlas.
SRTA members are invited to raise their hands and provide voice only comments during the meeting. Please observe the standard three minute time limit (and be prepared for a last minute change to a two minute limit). Only items not on the agenda are addressed at this time.
Comments are requested at the board meeting to bring a member’s perspective to the messages contained in this analysis and share real experiences of the impact of district policies and practices. Please commit to watching at least one board meeting this year, and speaking to an agenda item that impacts you or your students. Speakers are most impactful when they are well spoken, composed and reasonable.
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, as specified in Assembly Bill (AB) 361.
E.2. (Action) Adoption of 2022 Revised Board Meeting Calendar
Summary
The Board will consider adoption of the 2022 REVISED board meeting calendar as stated in Board Bylaw 9100 and 9322.
Modifications to the Santa Rosa City Schools COVID-19 Safety Handbook include:
Phase 1 for “Moderate Transmission” (Current Tier):
Begin Weekly Voluntary Pooled Testing for Students and Staff.
Principals and Departments modify previous documents for pooled distribution.
By 1/11/22, begin to send out Consent to pool test forms to families.
Effective 1/24/22, begin first pooled testing.
1/18/22 begin Daily health screener through Parent Square for students and employees.
Middle School sports except wrestling must wear masks at all times.
Limit Capacity for indoor events to 500.
Begin Temperature checking for indoor sports events.
No eating or drinking (mask off) in the gym.
Move all January meetings to Virtual, including 1-27 Professional Development.
Reduced Rainy Day Elementary Lunch schedules.
Provide Rapid tests to all families when received by the County.
Begin progressive enforcement with employee consequences for non-weekly testing.
Phase 2 for “Substantial Transmission” rates in addition to the above:
Student and employee daily temperature checks.
Reduce/Restrict student recess/playground based on “color” codes.
Students will be required to wear a mask while eating, pulling the mask down while taking a bite and replacing the mask after the bite.
Reduce indoor sports activity capacity to athletes and family only.
Require outdoor mask wearing for students and staff.
Move IEPs and 504/SST to mandatory virtual.
Consider canceling all overnight activities, sports, and extracurricular activities.
Staff exposed to someone with Covid-19
Do not quarantine if they are fully vaccinated. They test, mask, and monitor.
Quarantine for 5 days if they are not fully vaccinated (including booster if eligible.)
This handbook is one of the components that will be updated when the Board reviews the entire COVID Safety Plan (CSP), including individual Site COVID Safety Plans, on January 26, 2022.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.

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
Summary
Santa Rosa City Schools supports the whole student, both academically and with their Social-Emotional Wellness. As a method 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.
SRTA members will take a ratification vote on this calendar over this next week.
F8. Approval of Proposed Reclassification of CSEA 75 Childcare Assistants
Summary
The Board will consider approving the reclassification recommendations for California School Employees Association, Chapter 75 (CSEA 75) Childcare Assistants.
F9. Approval for the Opening of Four Bank Accounts at Exchange Bank
Summary
The Board will consider approval to open four bank accounts with Exchange Bank. Three new bank accounts for Piner High School and one new account for Montgomery High School. This will move all school accounts to Exchange Bank.
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.
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).
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?

SRTA members are invited to raise their hands and provide voice only comments during the meeting. Please observe the standard three minute time limit (and be prepared for a last minute change to a two minute limit). Only items not on the agenda are addressed at this time.
Comments are requested at the board meeting to bring a member’s perspective to the messages contained in this analysis and share real experiences of the impact of district policies and practices. Please commit to watching at least one board meeting this year, and speaking to an agenda item that impacts you or your students. Speakers are most impactful when they are well spoken, composed and reasonable.
E. DISCUSSION / ACTION ITEMS
E.1. (Action) Public Board Meetings Via Teleconference per AB 361 Summary
Summary
The Board will consider the continuance of conducting public meetings virtually, as specified in Assembly Bill (AB) 361.
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
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
Summary
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
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.
EdJoin shows a total of 137 current postings for 266 job vacancies for SRCS, 16 fewer than last month. 31 of these are coaching positions. There are 55 certificated openings (three less than last month), and two certificated management openings (one less than last month.) There are 208 current classified openings (twelve less 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. SRTA expects a systemic collapse without immediate change. What is the plan?
Welcome to SRTA new hires: Jessica Wood (CCLA), Taylor VanBebber (SPSV) and Sarah Pringle (SRHS.)
This month there are two resignations for non-represented staff.
There are six classified hires, three resignations and three retirements taking 59 years of institutional knowledge with them. Thank you for your service to our students and staff.

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)
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.
