together our staff questions and raymond worked diligently and came with some interesting data. this year there were more than 2 hundred and 70 concerns registered with the office and were interested in the concerns and some of the trend we learned about is the majority of family are elementary parent and there's concerns from high school but the highest numbers of complaints are bullying and most residents are referred to the office of family voice or referred by the education placement center. the majority of families are

latinos or african-american there's very few chinese using the services. why is it that there's a low percent of chinese families we don't know if there are barriers such a language. it seems unliken there are less concerns but we think it's something worth looking at. and possibly having another chinese staff member in that office. another question was are the practices of bullying being addressed. we know that some families are being offered the services but the families didn't want to use the processes or they felt the schools weren't interested so

it's something worth looking at and it's also reaching into schools and families as well within the schools with concerns about student behavior and 15 we wonder how saved parents and families are feeling with the relatives their getting through the office and we're not sure that information is being tracked but hopeful that would what about met through the office. we want to thank raymond for being open with us he he's promised to collect data in the future and bring it to our meeting. we hope that the district staff will look at the data and think of ways to improve the office

and there's another item. the pack team celebration is may 13 before the board meeting at 555 franklin it's from 430 to 6. we're going to be recognizing the commissioners who offered the resolution to create the parents council and hope to have all our former members and commissioners and we also want to thank the commissioner for the food th for this event and anyone else who wants to participate see you there

the committee is charged with mooment be bond revenue see any - the cdc meet to review and discuss the proposed policy to establish the projects under the 2011. give the restriction of the bond composed by the voters. we have some projected additional costs to the bond project as a result of higher results. the district commissions an independent third party economists to assess how the

project would impact the administrative cost and two it have a legal opinion the legal higher propose would not violate the propose. it's based on purely statutory. it's not based on the ability of the district to serve as the engine or the potential to create jobs for the public. the cb oc requests to the district are motivated that clearly day that a higher policy can be implemented given the absence and the aubs absent of any case authority that is directly on point that

authorized the policewomen's of a local higher policy. the cbc is further concerned that any additional expenditure of funds due to hire policy is inconsistent with the bond issues approved by the voters and my colleague will discuss this further. this is to - if the commissioners have any questions or comments at the end of our presentation we'd be glad to address them >> thank you at this time i have one card so i'd like to call up mr. willingly i didn't radcliffe to the podium.

no negative economical impacts on costs or the expenditures of the bond program. we've identified 5 major economical drivers that would potentially impact it and that's it points $300,000 we've been informed that that would cost to monitor the program above and beyond which is typically spent by the bond program. internally we had a robust discussion about whether this is a necessary expense and secondary we're concerned about the costs on the part of contractors would be uniformly passed on.

and fourth we don't know nor has been expressed to us the supply that is required of projects and finally we're concerned that the district would due have burdens of cost and we request a legal analysis to understand what this might cost. thank you very much. >> thank you any comments from the board? i want to thank you both for bringing this to our attention. i just want to ask you to share with us the make up of the committee and what kinds of

background folks bring to the table. and we it was unanimously supported at the meeting. it's a multiple ethnic background it happens to be lead by an alderman and two latinos and mrs. garcia and so someone who used to work in the facilities i work with the sdments. the other gentleman is an attorney. we are able to add some professional expertise to help guide our opinions. i'm going to go ahead and refer

her stronger more self-confident. and the attitude from the principle from the principle to my daughter treating my daughter like criminal and also feel like hating my daughter he this kind of behavior is not acceptable and i told the principle she's just a little kid. i'm very upset the way the principle handled the situation and also very upset she said
