the speech from. commissioner mendoza: could you submit that list to us? >> i have. i have to mr. golden. these things need to be addressed. the last thing i want to mention is that there is no composting at the school. it is a legal requirement that teachers have asked for. i hope that these issues will be addressed by this counts -- contract. commissioner mendoza: thank you very much. [applause] our next item is item g. i need a motion and a second. thank you. any items withdrawn are corrected by the superintendent? any items removed for first reading? any items covered by the board for discussion?

commissioner norton: is mr. ghe available to talk about some of the issues? commissioner mendoza: w-7? any others? commissioner wynns: i wanted to sever k-8 and k- 12. i have another question about the consent calendar. i would like to ask the question about the administration of the current agenda for tonight goes the agenda. -- tonight's agenda. can i do that when we discuss the consent calendar? what would you suggest?

>> we would need to find a procedure to be able to adequately agendize them. commissioner wynns: so i can't discuss them this evening? >> they were not posted on the agenda. commissioner wynns: okay. can i make a request that we find a place to discuss those? i know they are of the budget committee agenda. the ones on the budget committee agenda and not include tonight. how they go up through october 12. so i would not have an opportunity to discuss that either. i don't think that that was our intention to have no way to discuss the contract's. sorry, the last time i did that.

it was related to those administrative contracts so that we could have everything discussed in public as it needs to be. commissioner mendoza: item h is superintendent's proposals. there are no board member proposals. we have several members of the public that would like to speak. when i call your name, would you join us at the podium? [reading names]

>> i and the vice-president for uesf. i wanted to remind you that there are 130 features and security aides that got their hours cut. i am here to ask you to hire those 35 parents and restore the hours of the security guard using the education jobs bill money that you have. this is an issue of safety. just a little while ago, you honor the security aide albert

johnson for the excellent work and the mentor should provide to our students. although he could not stay for this portion of the meeting, he wanted us to let you know that he is one of those whose hours are being cut this year. let us honor him at all of our other hard-working teachers by restoring his hours and his pay. the students deserve it, and he does, too. [applause] commissioner mendoza: thank you. >> i work out of the high school. i am an elected uesf board member. along with the four days of furlough, hours have been cut as a result of the 14.5% cut.

let's see. that is an incredibly high pay cut that has a huge financial burden on families. especially when it comes to safety. if we can, we need hours restored. i had one more question that i wanted to ask. i have been trying to find out who is my supervisor downtown at the district level. for some strange reason, nobody can find out. if we can find out tonight, i would be highly appreciative. commissioner mendoza: we will find out for you, mr. frazier. we can answer your question right now.

>> they are being supervised by the building principle. >> what was that answer? >> they are being supervised by the building principle. and they are supervised by the assistant superintendents. >> when i have a pay issue, i go to my principal? nobody down town? >> 02 payro -- go to payroll, but the principle can facilitate the communication. >> not myself, but others at my school have been having pay issues. we are getting foxed already as it is. that is a serious problem. commissioner mendoza: we will have this resolved with you.

can we have a staff member follow up with him on this matter? thank you. [applause] >> good evening and again -- again. every parent since their students of the school with a different hopes and dreams. one thing that parents share is the expectation that their children will be safe at school. tonight, we are here to speak to you about the professionals known as t-10s. some are assigned to be there in the early morning when the teachers are not there. but the parents have dropped off their kids on the way to work. they are the people that patrol the halls during class and make sure there is order. to protect the students that has a past to the restaurant and make sure the holes are quiet -- halls are quiet.

i worked at one of the largest high-school. they were the first responders. if there was an emergency or an intruder, if there was a fight, they are the ones that we could count on. they worked the halls, they protect the children. many of us don't want uniformed police officers. instead, we have the t10s. they are the coaches, mentors, and grown up friends. albert johnson tonight is a perfect example of the people that stop the harassment, the bullying, the extortion, the threats. shortening their day is a bad bargain for the district.

we urge you to restore the time you have taken away from the dedicated security staff. you have the money. you can do this. please reconsider the decision to cut their benefits and their pay. [applause] commissioner mendoza: thank you. >> my name is cathy, and i've worked in the san francisco school district for about eight years now. tonight, i am speaking for the security guards at our school. asking you to restore the m1- hour pay -- one-hour pay, over $400 a month loss in pay. how would you be without $400 in your budget? how would you get by? they are having a hard time.

one that i saw and tried to get to come, he was going to another job. one of them was in a car accident recently. i don't see any substitute for him. along with his staff there, it is the children and some of your children that are going to suffer because of what ever -- if something happens, and they find out we did not have enough security guards, it is a problem. besides that, you have the money, you know that you have the money. the jobs bill was exactly for this. to retain the present workers at their full pay. at their full hours. and to bring back the people that were laid off.

what are you waiting for? please make a decision. thank you. >> i have been here before. what i will talk about is the same name but a different person. my son is a security guard. in talking with him, i wanted him to do the speech instead of me. he said, there are three kids that have been the practice. i understand. my three grand kids are playing soccer, and he is the one that takes them and picks them up. i will talk for you tonight. what it means to a security person, we are only talking about what our -- one hour.

but it adds up to alot. four days of furloughs, it is a lot of money for a little person that has to feed two kids. $10 billion was brought in to take care of this kind of stuff. people that lost their jobs should be put back to work by this $10 billion. there is something already out there, i understand the money has been there for months, since september. i don't understand. it makes sense to me, i can do the math. i hope you put everyone back to work at eight hours. and put me back the half an hour i lost about a year and a half. >> i am the president of the

united educators of san francisco. we are talking about people that are in desperate need. the stories that are coming to us and the thing that is motivating us is the thing -- we are hearing about people moving out of the housing that they have. some have become homeless and have to move into lesser accommodations. this doesn't need to happen because you have the money. this is not all of your money. this is nowhere near all of that money. we talked to five of the last week before we went into closed session and let you know that we are going to talk about this. i hope you have a conversation among yourselves about what is going on here. at the same time that you're keeping the money away from these people, you are spending money through your legal

department on unemployment attorneys to fight them when they go to claim the one-hour which is a technical layoff. you are sending lawyers then to deny them their claims. it is not just a matter that you have the money and you're not spending it on the work force, it is the matter that you're spending the money to oppose the work force when you are demanding the modest amount that they would get from unemployment. that is not the side of the school district whose goal at the bottom of their resolutions include such things asinclude sg social justice a reality, in gauging high achieving and joyful learners, and keeping our promises to the students and their families -- engaging high achieving and joyful learners.

that is not what the school system should be about. the response we have gotten is that -- [bell] we need you to bargain over that money. we need these people to be taken care of, it we need it now. thank you. president kim: thank you, mr. kelly. commissioner yee? commissioner yee: i would like to bring a motion through the chair. we have to be careful with the money. i would also like to note the impact. i request that somebody give us, the board, the analysis of what it would cost to restore the hour so i can make a more

informed decision. is that possible? commissioner yee: can we get that? >> yes, we can get you that. one of the things that i just need to clarify, because this happened at a previous board meeting, the fact is, do we have the money? we have gotten the money, but i want to remind everyone that for next year, we are looking conservatively -- excuse me. i gave you the opportunity to speak. i hope you give it to me, ok? we are looking next year at having a deficit in our budget that could range anywhere from $10 million to $20 million, so it is easy to say "spend that money now," but our number one goal next year will be to not

have any layoffs next year, wrote and there are some things that have thrown a wrench into this -- next year, and there are some things that have thrown a wrench into this. that budget that has been passed is very questionable, and people have been speaking about this up and down the state, and i am sure that our union is well aware of that conversation. we're going to be having a new governor. we had a lame duck a governor who passed this budget. that budget, as soon as january, is, we will see whether it really materializes. what we are going to do, what my recommendation has been to the board as we move forward is that we are going to look at in january how big of a hol.e we

will have next year. we do have that money, but the idea is for the following year, that money can be used over two years. that money might be the money that would save this district to keep people from being laid off next year, and that is why right now, until we have more information, we really do not recommend spending that money, but we will be sure to give the board the information. it is easy to spend that money, and then next year -- you remember what we went through last year, all of the layoffs. i would like us not to go through that. we're going to try to do everything possible not to put this district in that position again. commissioner yee: thank you. item k, and the appointments by the board? -- any appointments by the board?

>> madam chair, i had two cards in under item j. i think it is only appropriate that you are wearing orange, because it is such a lovely color. i want to read you a little bit out of the agreement from last year, and it says that there shall be the furlough days, days without pay. provided that there be no adjustment in salary -- there should be -- akon commitment -- a concommitent -- advising

people that want to find a way not to put people in their departments on furlough that they are supposed to check with people in order to get people of that. now, let's say that they chose to bring some in for a security reason. in theory, they are going to have to bring in someone to supervise them. that means they will have to bring in an administrator. we have 6000 people up there who are going to look to see if there is a single and administrator working on november 1, because if there is a single administrator -- to see if there is a single lead ministry to were working on november 1 -- a single administrator working on november 1, because if there is a single administrator, -- we understand that there may be

some sports activities in faraway places, and you may have to send some of administrators there. that may be different, but if you intend to live up to what you had in the agreement, why is this out there giving ways to get around it? >> i would like to ask time to come and answer that, but this is a furlough day monday for everyone. as i started this meeting, i read specifically that this is for every administrator and every employee, that schools would be closed, after school things would be closed, and the district office would be closed. now, if somebody decides to show up to do some work or something, that is their decision, but, no, we are closed, everybody. >> thank you, superintendent.

just quickly, with the guidance that mr. kilby referred to that went to the various department heads, if we can make a copy available to the board? -- with the guidance that mr. kelly referred to. keeping our it servers functioning, we have professionals that go with our students to nonpublic schools on buses. those schools are functioning. we will have to see. other paras are willing to work. is a function that has to be done. -- it is a function that has to be done. we would be off of the error free did not exempt particular employees so that that -- we would be off of the air if we did not exempt particular

employees. on other days, as we are doing it for custodian's that have to come for city college. city college is functioning. they will swab another day in terms of their furlough, so it is -- they will swap another day. everybody will be doing the four additional days, and i would like to thank the united ministers in san francisco for agreeing to take five furlough days this year -- to thank the united administrators in san francisco. >> to make an offer such as he just made in public to have some sort of alternate process without meeting and conferring with the union over that is

itself an unfair labor practice, and i would advise you not to continue in that mode. president kim: thank you. >> item l is a special order of business, the tentative agreement between the district and the boat -- and the glazier architectural metal and glassworkers union, the sheet metal workers' international association, local union 104, and others. may i hear a motion and a second to the tentative agreement? thank you, a reading.

>> thank you, vice president mendoza. i want to thank our craft union partners for the common agreement and their acknowledgment of the need to contribute to solving the district's current fiscal problems. commissioner: i need to inform the board that i will be abstaining for reasons. vice president mendoza: roll call, please. secretary: [reading roll]

thank you. that is four ayes. vice president mendoza: may i hear a motion for the tentative agreement? a reading by mr. ruiz. this action is to adopt this for the carpenters' local unit 22. vice president mendoza: thank you. commissioner: we have two agreements with the carpenters? >> we have a joint one, and then each craft has their own one to that common agreement.

vice president mendoza: thank you. i have no speaker cards. roll call, please. secretary: [reading roll] that is five ayes. vice president mendoza: we have an action item. a reading a recommendation from the superintendent. thank you. >> ok, i'm here to enter any questions you may have about williams.

ok, that the board of education of the san francisco unified school district accepts the report from the independent auditors for the williams oversight visits for school year 2010-2011 of the district's thirty deciles 13 school was based on the 2009 api. vice president mendoza: i do not have any speaker cards. commissioner wynns? commissioner wynns: i actually found these reports interesting, particularly the moving up and down. thankfully, more moved up and moved down -- than moved down, but i am wondering about monitoring this process.
