commissioner maufas: i do not know who is going to speak on the ones 3-7. a queue. that is great. there is more. i will talk about the first set. in looking at the descriptions, you know, each one has a different description. there might be a couple that are close. they are $27,000 each, but

ultimately, i am wondering why we are not using our own physical education teachers. i feel like we have people do this work. i do not know if it is a split schedule. i want to know openly, why are we not using unknown, especially when we have this physical education master plan? i think they are a great organization and they do great work. but i am wondering why we are not using our own well-trained understanding, all of our school communities and staff. why schools are choosing to go with an organization verses' picking from our own crop. gosh i can answer that a little bit by saying that the time the play works staff work with our

children is during recess in unstructured time and after- school time. it is not when they are doing physical education as dictated by the master plan. that is part of the reason. every year, the school's submit a resolution to continue this work because it provides for a positive school climate and has been very beneficial in a lot of the schools that are using the non-profits. >> just to clarify, play work provides structure game time, not physical education. it is structured to game time for the children during non- instructional times.

we have 200 kids in each yard. if we don't have certificated teachers, we have this organization that provides the structure games in different areas of the school for those 150 students that are at recess at that moment. if it is that commitment and they work after school with the same type of mentality. structured in games where children can play and learn to socialize together but it is not physical education. >> first and foremost, commissioners, playwork does

not replace p.e. the organized games, they are also somewhat students during recess and lunch time. logistically, it is very difficult to hire a peaty turf to try to support so many different recess, lunch, after- school. and he looked at a cost, $27,000. you're not going to be able the higher five teachers to spread the hours throughout the day to do this. most importantly, it is not instructional based. it is mainly organized place for children. commissioner who wfewer: it is t

instructional, it is recreational and similar to something with my contract for the ymca. i think this board has approved of many play works contracts before. it is a school site decision many times. and this board, play works is not new to us. we have approved this many times before without discussion and approved unanimously. this does not displace our teachers. there are programs that do. this is not one of them. >> if i may, since you were sitting here, are you also sitting here for the 22--- 19 and 20 as well?

>> if the solutions are related, then i am representing them. >> that was the clarification on my part. that really does help me better understand the times. i have seen that in the schools and i think, it totally correlates with what i recall at the school site. it really does make sense to me now. >> commissioners, i wanted to add one additional point that aren't assistant superintendents were making. it is funded through a variety of sources of schools lights that make that a priority. we have the good fortune that the grande schools have not only decided to support play works

for cooperative play, but have added to our physical education instruction and teacher positions as well. there is also a commitment there to physical education from works as well. >> roll call, please. k three through seven. >> [roll call vote] miss fewer has recorded hers. [roll call vote continues] seven ayes. >> would you like to take all three of them? 19, 20, 22. >> this really is something i could have commented on during the other component. when i look at the last one and

i look at the description compared to the other descriptions, i believe that this is the same work, but this is really a full description which is what i was looking for. i assume is the same activity or close to the same activity. but the description is so full and robust and completely as wages and concerns that i have. maybe this is just going for that descriptions like this are very helpful to my understanding of what is going to happen to be presented in shared with these other folks because that is where the flag was raised. when i looked at 22 and the supplemental explanation provided, i completely understand. i don't really have much questions because it is fully described here.

>> any comments? roll call, please. >> [roll call vote] seven ayes. item>> item 1, superintendent - te item q, a motion and a second? this resolution was heard at the ad hoc committee on student assignment meeting held last night. the report will be held later on tonight.

in support of the consideration for deferred deportations for child the arrivals, a program encouraging in the unified school district of volunteer to assist all our students at the mission high school action form. is there a motion and a second? for suspension of the rules. >> for suspension of the rules. [roll call vote] seven ayes. >> so motion and a second for formal introduction. we will be using 84 revision. this version has been made

available to the board and to the public. a reading of the resolution. is there a motion and a second. >> so moved. >> i second. >> of the reading of the resolution. >> in support of consideration of the further deportation of childhood arrivals, encouraging the unified school district to volunteer to assist all of our students, deferred action form. on the timber 22, at the san francisco unified school district board of education and a board resolution no. urged the city and county of san francisco to remember its status as the city and county of refuge as set forth in the san francisco administrative code

via adopted the ordinance no. 37589 on october 24, 1989, and whereas in board resolution no. 992 to 82, the final whereas clause where denial of access to an sfusd education to undocumented student would impose a lifetime margin on a discrete class of children not accountable for this disabling status. the stigma of a literacy will mark them for the rest of their lives. by denying these children their education, i get the ability for foreclosing any realistic possibility that they will contribute in even the smallest way to the progress of our nation as recognized by the supreme court. and whereas the board of

and their ability to learn, grow and thrive in every available facet of the san francisco unified school district regardless of their land of origin, parentage and documentation status. whereas on june 15, 2012, the department of homeland security secretary janet napolitano issued a memorandum to the u.s. customs and border protection u.s. citizenship and immigration services and the immigration and customs enforcement in accordance with that same philosophy announcing the consideration for defered action for the child program which offers defevered action to immigrants who were brought to the united states as children and who meet other specific requirements and whereas mission

high school community members came before the board of education on august 14, 2012 to announce their leadership efforts in making this national opportunity a reality for not just mission high school students but all eligible students in sfusd as rapidly as possible recognizing this program has no accompanying federal funding nor state allocated resources, to understand the guidelines, apply for consideration and ward off fraudulent prospectors in this arena. therefore be it resolved with the board of education with the san francisco unified school district hereby encourages the superintendent and staff to volunteer their free time and expert's to assist mission high school with its two-day action forum. friday september 7, 5:00 to 8:00 p.m. and saturday september 8, 9:00 to 12:00 p.m.

including but not limited to the translation of materials and provision of interpretors to assist with the provision of information to families. further be it resolved that the board of education encourages them to represent the board of education support for the full implementation for childhood arrivals program whenever and wherever possible and further be it resolved that the board of education recognizes and applauds the efforts of our community partners, e.g., affirmative action, asian law caucus. fsop. san francisco immigration network. asia pacific islanders. legal outreach. central american resource center. a whole host of community experts in making this national

opportunity a dream come true locally for our students and their families. so i believe that we have community members who could speak to this action from the mission community. thank you. >> thank you. >> public speakers? that signed up for today, jim, ava, wade, emanuel, clarissa. come on up. press the button and you have two minutes each. >> hi commissioners. my name is jen, i'm a communitied a and i work with our immigration program with undocumented pacific islander youth. i'm very grateful this resolution was presented today. thank you so much commissioner maufas and those of you in support of defered action. we not only represent the mission high school community but the overall san francisco

community and the thousands of students that would benefit from this program and just to add on that, we are hoping not to have just one community forum at mission high school but a several and hope that the school district can identify a pointor contact for our community members so that we can host other forums and workshops for students in the future. secondly, we would also like to clarify that we will be -- commend you for interpretation services and to also hopefully host other weekend events and possibly cover the cost of facilities and workers just to keep the doors open on saturdays if we do the workshops for families then. over the last couple of weeks, our agencies have been filled with interested applicants. there are approximately 4,000

potential applicants within san francisco and we want to serve each and every one of them and make sure they keep them away from those encroaching on them and all of our agencies in the san francisco legal education network are not charging a fee to support our students. there is a $465 fee already just for employment authorization and we can't ask for anymore from he's student -- these students that have already been impacts. -- impacted. thank you. >> thank you, jen. >> hello, my name is wade. i'm 23 years old. i'm the class of 2007 and also

part of aspire. an asian student promoting immigrant rights to education. the group that supports each other and also advocates for immigrant rights and i just want -- i'm here today to thank board for the sport of the action because as undocumented student i had a lot of difficulties getting through high school without the proper guidance and resources. i had my counselor from the high school. sneffs support of me but i could tell that she wasn't -- she didn't have the resource or the proper training to deal with students like me and it was really difficult. it wasn't difficult to graduate high school but it was difficult to live through it. i'm really happy to know that -- my benefit from the resident lucian so they won't have to go -- resolution so they won't have to go through what did.

i graduated from high school and graduated from college with a psychology degree and hope other student consist benefit and pursue education the same way i did. thank you. >> thank you. >> good yaverp, everyone. my name is anna avenue lows. -- avelos. i'm a mission high school graduate. currently i'm attending u.c. it is going to be my second year. i represent the 4,000 students in the city that qualify fd this defered action and i'm representing miss tom, my former chemistry teacher. unfortunately she is not here. she is in hawaii visiting her family though she asked me to speak for her. i'm here representing the students because i know i work in the immigration office and i know how much they have to pay.

some lawyers are asking them to pay $1,000 plus the $465 for the application. some lawyers are asking them to pay $1,500. we know they are just students. they are already paying for college or high school or something else. they can't pay for this. i'm here to ask you to please keep supporting this kind of event because mission has -- we should not be the only school doing this. thank you for your support. have a good evening. >> anna. >> thank you. >> good evening. i am here representing san francisco organizing project. we work with schools throughout the city. we have many, many families who are members who have children and students in different schools in the district and we are here with mission high school can the the community partners and we urge you to help us in sharing this defered action information with the

4,000 students in the city who qualify for different action and in particular we are working the asset fund to help these eligible students also participating in small lending circles which will help them pay for the legal fee to help them apply for the status. as you know, these students will be able to apply and receive a two-year work permit and will no longer fear deportation and will be able to focus on achieving their dreams. thank you. >> good evening. my name is clarissa sanchez. it is great to be here amongst this wonderful group of commint activists and other community-based organizations. we were not provided a grant.

taking part in this clinic is extremely important to us because as a community-based organization, i am one of five people in our department. we have an extremely high volume of cases and we have done everything within our power to be able to provide weekly clinics. unfortunately we have to assess a fee because we do not apply for and receive a grant. so taking part in these clinics that are being offered throughout san francisco, also in other counts, we took part in one in san mateo and it was great to see so many applicants lining up as early as 6:00 a.m. for this service. it is great to be able to help another no cost. i'm simply here to stress poverpbes having this and having the community and these students

come together to make these applications to rid themselves of the fear that they have in submitting their applications so i would respectfully urge everyone of you to please provide an aye vote in this and pass in re-resolution. coming from an oh,, as i'm sure we all have mentioned, we're flooded and we want to do everything within our power to continue to provide these services, especially with no cost. thank you for your time and hopefully we'll be able to have you onboard to come and see our clinic on september 7 and september 8. thank you. >> thank you. commirgs maufas? >> thank you. commissioner maufas: miss wong is here and i was hoping that

you could share some of the district activities that have to happen because of the passing of the -- thank you. >> several weeks ago, actually more, i think they have been working on this project for the last summer and in waiting for more information. as we have been working with the group, one thing that they did identify was to be able to enis that your the counselors at the high school have this information so we are going to be planning counselor trainings through the month of september and making sure that the flier that they have already translated into chinese and spanish is also out there at all of the high schools and in anticipation of the events on friday and saturday, translation department is going to be preparing interpretors for this event. >> thank you very much. what i also wanted to let the commissioners and public know is that i reached out to the members of the board of supervisors because not only does it affect our students, it

affects other citizens in san francisco up to 31 years of age and they are being met again with this unfunded opportunity and how can the board of supervisors and our partners n the city and county of san francisco work with us so we are able to share resources but also do as much as we can for as many as we can. as quickly as we can. i know -- let me ask. are they still on break? hence the no response? i understood that. that's fine. i know that they will respond. i wanted to mention that i did reach out to them and and also some of our community partners. i know that we have many, many folks that will be probably with us on friday and saturday. i want to encourage other folks

to either -- i hate to target you. are you the point person for sfusd? >> actually, commissioner maufas, we're going to convene as a staff to figure out who is best prepared to be the point person, not that miss wong is not. >> correct. she has an awful lot on her plate. i'm well aware of that. you have been in communicationss with her and myself throughout this process. when we discovered that point person, hopefully we'll be able to filter that information out so they can partnership with us on friday and saturday, but really, primarily to make certain that our students -- i'm sorry, are just protected from the folks that are trying to take advantage of this situation and we know that they are oppressive lant out there. i want to -- prevalent out

there. i want to thank community and i appreciate you for giving me guidance. i want you to know i wrote this resolution after watching you all at the board meeting. i was sick at home and i was watching the board meeting and i appreciate that miss tom came to that board meeting and spoke to you. you listened in such a heart felt manner and i appreciate that from my colleagues and i was able to produce this at home. commissioner fewer: i would like to thank commissioner maufas for bringing this forward. and also wanted to reiterate friday september 7 from 5 to 8:00 p.m., saturday, 9 to 12:00 p.m. at mission high school. what can people expect if they come to the forum and is it limited in any way the students

or san francisco residents or -- >> we actually wanted to -- the community forum. not just mission. we know that san francisco is well known as a -- city. san francisco is a city of immigrants. we know that. so we want to be bridged to the parents. not just the mission parents. we know there is a lot of parents out there that don't know situation. it broke my heart when i went to oakland and i don't know what this is but my son can explain it to you. we want to talk with the parents so they know they can have this information that will benefit them. we don't have a limit or things like that. hopefully as well as many lawyers as we can have to reach many students in san francisco. many students in san francisco. >> there are still many parents
