m, no discussion of educational issues and item n, consent calendar moved to a previous meeting and there are none. >> item o, vote on consent calendar which was moved and he coulded. >> roll call. >> miss ly. >> yeah. >> fewer. >> yes. >> haney. >> yes. >> maufas. >> yes. >> mendoza murase. >> aye. >> wynns. >> aye. >> and we have one item severed for board discussion i believe that was b6, and i see mr. kinsy in the audience, you had a question? >> thank you, for staying and waiting for this, i appreciate that very, very much. could you speak a little bit about just some of the concerns that were mentioned and here is the thing, just from reading this i don't think yeah, i

would have never known any of that information. so i am just looking just for some more guidance from you about how we came to this decision particularly since i don't know anything about the western states contracting alliance and why you think that they are more beneficial than the folks that we have had since 2007. >> thank you. >> my name is matt and i am the chief technology officer at the san francisco unified school district. so, every five years or so, the purchasing department wants us to go through, and the contract expired and so we don't have an active contract with them as a result of that we looked at several factors but the chief was the price, so the western states contract alliance is a large purchasing organization that goes out and does the bids

for us and usually secures decent pricing for us that is lower than what we have if we tried to go on our own. so that is why we felt it was more beneficial and so there are a couple of options one we can piggy back on their work or try to do it ourself and go out for the request of proposal. working with the purchasing department the decision was to move forward with the western states contract and alliance, and then we submitted the board for authorization to do that. >> and so, if i understood what you said, there is no sort of open bid process for a contract that ends, could be pretty significant. and did the purchasing department sort of just determine who can offer us the best pricing for the services that we need and require. and then present that to you for the decision and you sthaend to us,; is that correct?? >> that is correct. we can either do the only open

bid process or piggy bag on the process by another authorization and so what we are asking for tonight is the piggy back on the open bid process done another organization. >> thank you. >> any other questions? >> roll call? >> thank you. >> ly >> yes. >> fewer. >> yes. >> haney. >> yes. >> maufas. >> yes. >> mendoza. >> murase. >> aye. >> wynns. >> aye. >> norton. >> aye. >> item q, superintendent proposals first receipteding there are none. >> r, board members proposals first reading there are none. >> item s, we have aseveral reports beginning with the committee of the whole from may 21st. vice president fewer?

>> thank you president norton for refreshing my memory. we had a lively discussion on the reauthorization of the public enrichment education fund and also the children's fund. >> a report from the augmented budget and business services committee commissioner wynns? >> thank you. >> so, the committee met on may 22nd, we had one action item. but any way we discussed this was a meeting that was all of the budget committee meetings was it was augmented but we did it and we were particularly interested that the members of the rules committee was able to be there instead of having the rules committee because we had the legislative advocate coming to discuss the may revise with us and we hope that is something that we should sort of talk about during

legislative season. because, we, it is much more effective when we have the advocates here to discuss and so we always end up talking about the budget at the rules committee what we immediate and this was timed so that it would be right after the main revision and we would get the update on the budget so that instead we have them talk also about the legislative positions and we actually updated some of the positions, i don't know if commissioner haney wants to report on that. but i am presuming that all of the members of the board got the materials that include the, or which we should have or which you should have gotten after the committee meeting not the ones that we got at the committee so that the positions we took could be updated there. >> so that was the interesting thing to do. and it seemed to work pretty well. >> and then, we had our usual informational item for the kresolutions which are getting now on-line, members of the board not in the hard copy and so you should, you know, tell us if that is working for you

and you are having the opportunity to review them as you want to. if you have any questions you want to ask about any of them besides coming to the meeting where the staff that you can refer them to miss casco or to me. and then the most important thing is that we had the update on the state budget and on our own budget as far as what we learned from the may revision and so what we have, and i presume that all of the members of the board have gotten this updated document. no? >> did you get them? >> this is the same document that you had before, which of the three-year projection and this is the two-year projection based on the may revision that looks better and also is a fairly conservative estimate of what we might get from what we think, what we think is going

to be passed by the legislature, but, of course, we don't actually know. so, what in, and we were the staff was before the may revision, working on trying to close a projected 11-plus million dollar deficit for next year and now they are working on a 5.3 million deficit and that is a good change and a good thing that is a hole to be filled and we should remember that and so we had some questions about both increased expenditures and increased revenue the amount details about what is in the increased expenses as well as the increased revenues will be forth coming and you will get all of that prior or it will be contained, actually in the draft budget that you are going to get on june 7th. 7th in really? on june 7th.

>> and then, so, the committee members have some questions about what those costs were and what we think that we can afford with the... and we hope but you remember that the budget will not be and the safe budget will not be passed by june 7th and however the state budget is required to be passed and balanced by june 15th and now that the members of the legislature don't get paid, and unless it is. we have seen surprisingly that they actually do pass it. and before we do have the next meeting which is augmented budget committee meeting on june 18th, at 6:00 in this room which we hope that you will all attend because if you recall that was a tuesday between the first and the second board meetings in june and that meeting functions as the public hearing on the budget so come to the first budget, come to the first meeting in june with your questions or we can discuss it at the first meeting

but the detail and the public input will take place the following tuesday, are there any other meetings that the board members should know about? the budget development between now and then? or the next thing is the draft budget coming to us? >> yeah. >> that radio listeners. >> definitely. >> and so that is what we did at the meeting and it, you know, it is sort of better news, i hesitate to say good news but better news. >> thank you. >> if i may, just to share information with anyone who is interested or might be about one additional opportunity, this is for members of our community, we have blocked out two hours tomorrow for office hours which we have been doing for the last few years and

there are slots available and if anybody would like to find out for a block of time to give a specific feedback or ask questions, superintendent you can be a first in line after the community members. you can contact, there is a specific phone number and e-mail address, i think that it is budget at sfusd.edu to sign up and we have had, i would say a pretty successful series of community meetings this year, i think that we have had a total of four, and i think that those have gone fairly well. i definitely took note of the conversation with the delac that took place earlier and i will note that for a future reference as well. >> thank you. that is all good news. >> okay. we also have the city and school district collect committee and since i am the only member of the committee who was there and also here i will give that report.

we have three reports one on actually quite interesting on the mta traffic calming program around the schools and how, you know, at how when you get a request to add a stop sign or slow the speed around a school so that how they prioritize that and actually in the amount of progress in the decreasing speed limits around the schools and so that is good for our safe routes to schools efforts. we heard a report on the summer jobs plus initiative and summer school programming and there is actually a lot going on on the city side in finding the jobs and a paid job and internship opportunities for youth and so that was interesting and we heard an update on willie brown middle school and we saw some designs which i have not seen before so that was really great to see. and david golden did a presentation which i am sure that he would send any of you if you asked him and would like to see the pictures and see

some of the information. are there any other reports from board members? >> dr. murase? >> yes. the curriculum community meets on monday. and we will have an update from ethic studies and a discussion about strategic plans on the curriculum instructions division and then an announcement about the congressional gold medal tour. the ad hok community is schedule to meet monday june 10th at 6:00 p.m. and where they will be additional analysis of this year's assignment runs, and public are welcome to attend. and i have a number of other announcements if that is already. four quick announcements. i want to congratulate paul reviere middle school for the perfect attendance extravaganza

on may 18th. i want on acknowledge commissioner mendoza for the teacher and the principal of the year at city hall it was just so heartwarming to see some very, very hard working teachers and principals be recognized by the mayor and to receive quite a few goodies, i have to say that microsoft donated laptops to the teachers and i think that each of the honorees received $1,000 and there was really quite a bounty for them. >> and may 23rd i have to say that principals now how to party. i went to the united administrators of san francisco and end of the year celebration together with the superintendent and it really is the best year-end party. it was wonderful day and also, honored very deserving

principals, and acknowledged retiring administrators and i just wanted to congratulate all of those as well and finally i wanted to thank the staff person and dr. (inaudible) for putting together the high school graduation list and i wanted to congratulate all of our usfd graduate this week and it is an exciting time and i wish you all of the best. >> thank you, dr. murase. >> fewer? >> i just wanted to mention that i attended today the corton county school graduation and i just want to congratulate all of those parents and students and i was so happy to join in the celebration with them. >> thank you. >> any other announcements? >> no. >> okay, we will move on to item t, report of closed session actions for the meeting of may 21, 2013. the board of education did not approve by a vote of 6 nays, and one aye, wynns, the expulsion of a high school

student. the board of education approved by 7 ayes by two principals one assistant and one supervisor and one director, da verses usfd, the board of education authorized to settle the matter up to the specified amount. other informational items, there are none this evening and we are at item d, adjournment and i am going to take a point of personal privilege and adjourn the meeting in the memory of mckalay lynch she was a third grade student who passed away on mother's day and commissioner wynns and i attended her memorial service at sunset last friday. and i have to say, for such a tremendously sad event, a 9-year-old child should not lose their lives and for a

tragic and sad event, it was just so pitch-perfect for an elementary school the entire school community was in the cafeteria, most everybody was wearing purple because that was her favorite color, all of the classrooms did art projects in their own way to remember mckayla and to honor her and the students spoke about things that they remembered about their friend and classmate, teachers spoke, and her mother spoke and her father spoke, remembering her and thanking the school community for really being a safe place for her. and for a parent of a child with a severe and profound disability, i can't... i can't think of any greater gift to know that when you send your child to a school every day that that school is loved.

and celebrated and appreciated. and that is what... the gift that sunset gave mckayla and her family, and so i just want to on my behalf and on behalf of the board to express my sadness to the lynch family and to her father mike and her mom berry and her younger brother ryan and thank the sunset community for just being such an incredible support to that family. both when she was missing and the teachers went up to clear lake on their own and dropped everything, and went up to search for her. and you could tell at the memorial just how much they had pulled together and supported each other and i am tremendously grateful for them and thank the principal for founding that. and so on that, the meeting adjourned.
