king elementary school i have two children or children a second graders and i also have a student in the program right now the issues at star king are according to our principle 3 times as more as they were last year right now our school our playground is smaller than a normal elementary school playground this which is forced our children to act out we hear numerous behavioral issues coming if the classroom okay i get a report everyday and everyday at something it is i'd like to come home and hear there was no fights on the playground everyone is getting along i know

this the the world we all come from ethnics and backgrounds but it would be great to have a good time to play you want to say something yes or >> thank you (clapping.) >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> my name ises stare i'm reading for the education my name is as katie i'm the project during games after school and during the day this is my first year with the binge losses we have a quarter of a third of the space than last year, it has an

effect on the kids the kids who like to play supports outdoors to love to play soccer if the child has one game now there's no option if the student doesn't like the game she wouldn't have anything at all for recess kids used to run and placing play tag now designated to small squares as you might imagine with the reduced space it has for physical accidents at the school it's dangerous for kids we've had many more fights and a small playgrounds we'll have kids with aggression issues don't have the physical space if we add 50 to one hundred and 20 kids to the schools it is worse this has

affected the kids with protons we need to have the space for the kids our playground is tiny it is a tiny little square that is overrun sorry (clapping.) thank you. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> for the educators i'm jenny wong a parent at star king and in the manner program i used to teach for the district as a special educators i know what the staff and teachers enyou demur it's hard to expect king to take on, on alleged thirty percent xhoupdz the stress they squeeze into a tiny room it will

have more conflicts parents most importantly teachers who worked hard to get into it will be pushed over the edge and star king is relatively young program that has a high you turn-over rate we've already lost one excellent teacher there are and historically speaking finding the teachers for the education and experience it is a difficult task when we lose on experienced teacher we reflex finding not a qualified one but rather than a green one we hope that principle chang will reduce the turnover but this address burden on our school hurts our efforts what happens when the substitute teach is not available recently the second grade education

teacher feel sick no substitute two teachers had to accommodate the general education students who couldn't aspect man an that doctrine at all those types of problems will be much more common with the thirty percent increase with the students poor educators if you saw the distressed look on my sons face we're already a full boat filed with holes don't make the teachers feel like they're on the titanic ready to hit the hole thank you. >> thank you. next speaker, please and so sorry thank you good evening. i'm christina star king parent a first grader

at the school i want to focus on the timing of that proposal star king as experienced a lot of transition in the last couple of years specifically a new principle last year and as you you'll are aware that takes time for a leader to start working at a school to be effective this year we are experiencing our moneytion projects as students in bungalows the proposal to introduce an entirely new year of transitioned to our school is just the wrongs time for our school because we have had sometime transitioned it is a lot for many institutions; right but the elementary school school half of the years are spent in the transitioned it's takeing i think it is pa hard over wants star kings i want to focus on one you you know we have a

difference population of kids including kids that have experienced a lot of dislocation and transitioned in their own lives the schools should be a place of stability and introducing a new elements such a bungalows and one hundred center kids incorporated into the community is a lot to ask for and the other pointed in my language attrition is an issue when a kid lives e leaves in third and figured out grade they can't be replaced so if the students move to private school or outside the district i think that anything that increases student turnover is something the district should look at carefully when it is thinking about a language immersion program this is not the right school or times for the

>> thank you. next speaker, please (clapping.) hello board of education i'm jamie a parent at star king for seven years it's a community very dear to me but a community that needs a lot of support i've worked for the district in special education for 13 years the star king is an important part of the day the students have opportunities to make conductions connections with their peers during play special day class teachers contributed input to our playgrounds hopefully a they'll be implemented and this program will be more inclusive and develop foreseeny activities to support all kinds of learners and statement from our fourth and fifth graders this is his words the students in the special day class are kids with amp they often have difficulties

with loud noises and crowded environments they avoid the unpredictable situations and environments due to reconstruction the students with amp stay on the outer perimeters of yards it is taking uppermost of the spaces our students with autism are having difficulties navigating the yards as all i have our students and often told to move or hit with balls the games top every sways because of this those students are staying away from the yard areas this is not what we want for our kids this is not good for the students with the possibility of more standards will make recess

difficult with the students with activism at star king i highly recommend not adding to the population as charles you very much (clapping.) >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> hi dear board members i'm wondering if i can have transmission in my native tongue. >> please say our name. >> (speaking foreign language.) >> okay my name is - i have a kid in the third grade in the star king in the elementary school and i know that school has a lot of programs.

>> (speaking foreign language.) >> sorry. >> and i know the students of the school come from a lot of family backgrounds. >> (speaking foreign language.) >> so i know because of this different backgrounds and i know it's hard for us to especially the parents to have a common ground on all different issues but - >> daniel webster moved to star king is an exception. >> (speaking foreign language.) >> so i have two topics to talk about tonight the use of

cafeteria in the school. >> (speaking foreign language.) >> so, now we have 3 different schedules to use this cafeteria to first one starting at 11 in the morning. >> (speaking foreign language.) >> that means that kids have to start their lunch at 11 and at the same time because of the ongoing construction in the school sites it is a little bit alcoholic a hard in the cafeteria. >> (speaking foreign language.) >> so imagine if we have another one hundred more students from daniel webster it will give a more load and burden

to this school and that means some of the kids have to start their lunch to my left another maybe 10 something. >> (speaking foreign language.) >> the other top u topic i want to talk about the limited space in the playground. >> (speaking foreign language.) >> so i believe parents who is present in the meeting do not want to send their kids with the school with a limited play area for the kids for the past two years we don't have any good spatial space for the kids to

play in their during their break or after school. >> (speaking foreign language.) >> so to my own memory the most precious momentums for their kldz is that i spend my time playing or charging after my peers in the playground. >> (speaking foreign language.) >> so i think with more kids transfer for another schools that means our kids don't have enough space for my after school programs or during the break.

>> thank you very much (clapping.) i need to come to conclusion before you make a decision i'm sorry you have to think about the school and the parents behind them thank you very much (clapping.) >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> good evening my name is is frank i have a first graders at the program and thank you for giving us the time to speak i'm sure you've heard about the space issues with cause the children in taking the approach i'm sure you're aware of that people have different opinions the desi the district has issues in our situations this is problematic and the safety issue ems if there's an emergency evasion drills students need to be 50

yards away from the building before the bungalows for the cooperation have teachers to supervisor them with that gone you have to go into the city streets i don't know how familiar with you are but let me paint i a picture on one side of the street is the kick open fields an open field with a huge hill no fences and very easy for a kid do walk other than the side and on the other side is a small street where cars come from both evens they need to stop you have head on traffic with kids stations doctor and the last part is the main obviously the big morning drop off we tried to approach the

planning city in putting in speed bumps you'll see 50 miles per hour it is really fast so god for bib an emergency there are or there the students will be sitting in not an ideal oxygen so thksz it is wisely to talk about this for the schools. >> thank you very much (clapping.) good evening. i'm a parent at star king and have two kids a daughter in second and third grade you've heard about the playground and the jarred and space i wanted to talk about what we have project and designed for this play yard there's going be a green yard
