pattern will be. that is one caveat associated with the estimate. >> i want to clarify something. we have a question tonight about high school. i want to remind everybody that if you look in the placement guide, you will see there is a page that describes the process for high school. the policy we adopted is there will not be any attendance stuff for high schools. that is missing, just to clarify. there was a question raised as though we were not telling you how it would work for high school. what we are discussing tonight is attendance areas and feeder patterns and transportation policy. we are presuming there will be no general transportation for high school. that is in our new policy. that is for clarification purposes.

>> thank you for all of this work. it is very exciting to finally see all of it in color or in maps. a couple of comments and questions. some have been brought up already. we definitely have the concern about commander in -- mandarin pathways. how many years will it be before the fifth grade graduates? we have two years. ok. that is not a lot of time. jose ortega is a year behind. it is hard because the schools are so far apart from each other. we did that because we wanted the east and west side to both have an option for the immersion. we are seeing how low will be

difficult to have a pathway that will accommodate all of the different communities. i think willie brown is a great location. i do not know when we will be able to open the school. it will be great to have mandarin emersion there. for the high school fair, it would be great to get our student advisory council involved. i think they would be perfect and would give really good feedback in terms of what they would have liked to of seen in eighth grade in helping to select a school since we're keeping the current city-wide process. for the members of the public that were not part of the process, the majority of high school students asked the week keep the city wide policy because they wanted the choice to go citywide. i am very worried about isa. that was the one pathway that concerned me the most. a lot of the others seemed to make sense, were contiguous.

i liked that there were some schools like everett better really going to diversify going from 81% to 50%. i was concerned there was a significant drop for the same sub group for francisco middle school. given that we have malcolm x and carver going so far out, my one feedback would be whether we can consider having aptos being one of those school. it is one of the middle schools that has successfully closed the gap in ela and math for latino students. looking at where we feed, it makes sense to look at what schools are successful a closing the gap. years from now, hopefully all of our schools will be closing the

gap and it will not be an issue. i would like to look to the data in terms of which schools are currently doing that. as far as we -- as long as we're having them go so far out of their community as a feeder school. the middle school diversity, language pathway. those are most of my comments for right now. there is a lot of information. i really appreciate all the parents the came out tonight to give us their feedback. we have several other meetings as well. i am really excited about the pathways. i love the idea of communities of fifth graders going to the same middle schools, changing in impacting the makeup of the school. i am really excited about that. the last thing is another public comment was made about our houseboat communities. the assumption is if you are

contiguous, that is the area you are going into. just to clarify. i think the comment was brought up by one of the members of the public. ok, great. those are my comments. >> anything else? >> commissioner norton. >> this is a question for the committee. my understanding is we will be discussing the special education assignment plan at the september 13 meeting. is that everyone's understanding? i would like to make sure that parents are notified and have a chance to show up. >> might understanding was that we would be talking and getting feedback from the board about the attendance area, peter patterns, and transportation policy. the discussion about special ed would take place through another form. i was not aware that special and

would be discussed. i thought student assignment would be discussed through special ed. >> we were going to have the committee as a whole. >> i want to take issue with that. i think it is the last meeting -- at the last meeting, i threw temper tantrum and said i wanted to have a conversation with parents. my understanding is we were going to do this in september or october and people need to know. when are we going to have this conversation i was promised? >> i am talking about planning for the board. that is why i am asking. >> before we get to that discussion, we need to hear the presentation of the recommendations being made on special ed. what day is that scheduled for? do you have that? september 14. we will schedule it after that. >> i would do it at this

committee if you want, but we would have to add a meeting at the end of september or wait until the middle of october. >> whatever the pleasure of the board, i just want to have the conversation. >> we will figure it out with a staff. we will let everybody know as quickly as possible so that parents can know. >> i am getting a lot of people asking. >> this is one question i left out. i was curious why hoover has three different pathways for language. >> it has them now. it is the only school in the district that has three. this proposal would suggest a phasing out of one of them. instead of having spanish, cantonese, and japanese, it would have japanese and cantonese. the spanish would be phased out. >> we would keep spanish at everett, link, and mann.

>> i think we're finished. i want to remind the public that it is on your agenda and will be on the website on the timeline for the next steps, particularly the community conversations. the next one will be on august 25. the rest you can read on the end website. the next meeting of this committee will be september 13. if there is nothing else, the meeting is adjourned. thank you.

>> many people are not aware of this building was built in 1936. as a board to preserve the history and make the students aware of that history. the partnering between sfmoma and the arts commission means they will be more aware of the artwork that we have here, the artists that painted a, and the history behind this itself. >> students came from george washington, and it was wonderful to have them on a panel. people from the school board, those who have been painting for years, some conservative errors from the getty.

to have them tell us about the works of their school was important. it represents african-american artists to during the 20's and 30's used an incredible body of work. it is one of the most incredible works of art in the city, bar none. it is a huge mural of incredible works. >> the san francisco civic arts collection has been in existence since the turn of the century. it consists of everything from monument to golden gate park to market street, other works in the collection, from the wpa era, the quite tower, the works from the george washington high school. we have the contemporary education, where they depict some of the vocational arts that were taught at george washington high school. what is interesting is the

artist's and corp. of some of the -- incorporation of some of the architectural elements. they used the speaker from the p a system as part of the design. on the opposite side of the library, we have a large fresco which depicts the academic subjects that were taught at the time. it serves as a foil to the other fresco in the library, we have academic subjects on one side, vocational subjects on the other, and result is the concept of a well-rounded education. additionally, what we plan to do is the academy of hospitality and tourism will be part of, so the students can share with other students, faculty, the neighborhood, and others to come by and what to look to the artwork we have. >> by working with the students,

we hope to raise awareness of the collection and foster stewardship. we brought diego rivera to the city. i think the wpa art work is characterized by stylized robustness and a pervasive occupation with a historical. in this panel, we have a depiction of george washington moving west. what is interesting about it is the image of lewis and clark here is in black and white, something that is occurring in the future, painted as though it was in the past. what is interesting about it is the very obvious conclusion of

slavery. the number of students were expressing unease around some of the themes. the additional mural would be placed in the school, one with more positive representation of the student body. in 1974, they completed three panels that were placed in the library -- in the lobby. they depict native, latino, asian american, and african- american heritage and culture. >> that artist was talking about the history coming alive. that is what we want for the students here. i also think they might share that with past alumni and the community, so they could no the treasure that we have here in the schools. many people have the same

experience i did when i first walked into this building three years ago, being the new principal. the grandeur of these murals is fantastic. many of the students who have come here have come here and are very proud of these murals. they're so happy that they're still here and are being preserved. >> to learn more about the civic art collection, visit

i am having my daughters look for items that are related to the ordinance that i am introducing today. i was horrified to find prickings bunch bob and horrible comic characters that are marketed in fast-food. today, i'm very proud to say that i hope that we can make history along with liverpool, england, in protecting the health of our children. we want to target restaurants that serve toys with happy meals. this will set nutritional standards for companies to use voice -- toys. i would like to thank a couple of the co-authors along with the

number of organizations and to help us with this project. our legislation is aimed at promoting healthy eating habits for children to address issues related to childhood obesity. this requires for fast food and other restaurants that use toys or incentives that they must contain fruits and vegetables that must exceed 600 calories per meal or 200 calories for a single food item and they must not have beverages that have excessive fat or sugar. recently, the center for disease control has shown with the data that since the birth of the happy meal in 1979, for 30 years, the obesity rate for children has quadrupled for the age group that my daughter is in, 6-11. in the last 30
