give an update this month we'll be talking about a few things we've done in specific areas that's our work with the el cap workforce and our work with the practices and also the work in supporting the information assess for the english language learners and their family so starting with the el cap workforce we've heard about it is something that cat last year we did a lot of outreach to the community to get feedback on the process of developing the local control accountability plan and one of the represents from the council meeting is that we thought that would be a great idea to create a task force so this district what work together to make sure that the accountability plan was needed to be development a transplants

about how the plan and the outreach continues to the families so it is great this task force has started to meet in october was the first meeting and meeting each of month there has been representatives from all of the people that were involved in the engagement process last year and as students went to the meetings and hopeful that presence will grow as well as the presence of some of our labor partners and the a. task force has been present and the resources it's been great for the people that put their heads together to continue to make this a successful process going forward and so i think that was mentioned that the task force is meeting tomorrow wednesday january 14th from 5 to 6:30 here at 555 franklin

so the second action item we've been working on has been a long time following the district prelims of the practices and that is something we've heard from the families that they're very interested in and we've been trying to think about ways to grow the involvement of the families in the roll out in the practices of the school district so some of us met we met with the coordinator helen park and the action team o'neil and talked about ways to really coordinate to foster implementation and roll out gaemg families in the process more and out of that conversation one idea that was brought up maybe we can have a learning community that might involve both parents and the city hall staff so there would

be sort of a monthly meeting in learning what the district is doing and what they expect from their school site. >> what the students will have a chance to meet and learn and discuss that's something we're going to bring back to the next 0 meeting and also bring it to the established group the ed collectors that's a collaboration of the community-based organization going forward and the final area i want to update the board about the support of our english language families this is something we've been interested in for a long time and several members of the pack met what christine wong the destruct and the online coordinator from the office of public roach outreach and communications to talk about the section thought you sfusd website that are only available

in english and ask questions about what the policy is to determine what sections of the website are translated in other languages and what documents so they can said how the positives are and have for translations so one example that was brought up the documents building additional district we know this is an area that a lot of families are is concerned about was there are resources whether their you know disporptd available in schools we know there's a plan that exists not all families are access to know what is in the context of that document because it is only available in english fortunately that are steps that come out of the meeting there are several i'm going to read to throw several packages that are plans to translate one is our child's

education things you should knows right now the translation is transmitted this into spanish and chinese there is a section of the sfusd website called that community services that's been temporarily removed but you updated and will be changed in a way even if the leaks are not in negotiating the families will 0 know how to get more information and finally the family e-mail newsletter the ability for families to find out the newsletter in chinese and spanish as well so the pack wants to applaud those efforts by the district and willingness to have the two-way dialog to really thought partner with us in ways we can make sure that all families are assess and so 0 that's the end of any

report the next staff meeting is thursday the 22nd on 655 franklin street and on to anyone that wants to come. >> i have a quick question in terms of the english learning it's important to have more materials i want to make sure that our community council and the district citizens advisory committee are aware of those improvements to our ability to serve the families. >> okay. >> any other comments thank you, very much. for your presentation oh president fewer. >> tonight we're going to be hearing if the language pathways to e to e so it will be great to bring back it information we can get the power point but also i think that we should has this

been discussed to having the materials trained into other translations like the arabic speaking after chinese and spanish those are the two largest populations of the children have they ever mentioned we perhaps should be standing it not only to spanish and chinese but to arabic. >> you know i think this is a very important thing to think about we certainly has we've done our outreach at various schools we've noticed we get interpreters certainly in other languages and chinese and spanish but see it is definitely we thought about i guess something that we know there's limited resources but something we will bring to the table and

appreciate that comment. >> because those documents look like the documents that for example our child education things you should know it didn't feel like a document that we will revert but i wonder maybe deputy instructor gerrero the probability of having those trained into arabic and vietnamese that's part of our long-standing translation and. instructor: staff is looking at that we'll be happy to bring back information to the board with the states. >> i understand we can't have everything translated but they

can assess it and navigating when they're enrolled their non-english speakers we can give them this document in their native language. >> i recognize mr. haney and want to welcome xhaufs that concluded her tenure on the school board welcome. >> president mr. haney. >> i had one more quick question sorry. >> thank you for your report on the first one i had a question well first i'm heap e happy we get an early start in bringing together all the folks that are going to be helping us to get as broad as possible with the community during the el cap

i know this was affordable unit a feedback that came back during the process and hope that as it move forward we can stay in constant dialog with the organizations involved to know how it's going you feel like the process is moving as you hoped and one thing i want to put in a plug i'll follow-up on this it is something i raised student participation in the process there was actually a change in the state regulation that says we have to gaemg and involve 9 much disappointed pull so the father or target of the el students in the process so i really hope that we can, you know, i'm sure you're working with the sf cc i know there's a robust approach to making this similar effort to support that

and hopefully, i you know work with you directly on that in general the extraordinary report and looking forward to continuing the conversations about the el cap. >> i appreciate that i know that student engage was not as robust as it could have been last year, i know that's the focus this year i appreciate you're putting the focus on it is something we need to take serious. >> thank you very much for your report. >> the next item is f the public comment on content items let's see - yes, so i'd like to invite the members of the local 21 to the podium i have 101 on the list david (calling names)

wire or pit software or download software hadn't increased i've seen the younger migration that 0 those who have come up since i've been here one the first things they comment to say serving the kids it's admirable but it's hard for them to support the kid when they have problems supporting themselves especially when they live in the city one the biggest draw bureaucrats is the premiums some can't discuss having children they can't pay how much they're paying forgotten a studio apartment we ask for your support help us better help the kids and better to ourselves so we can be better to the >> thank you. next speaker please (clapping.) hi, i'm chang i've been with the district over 20 years
