11:01 am
become available there's much more rigorous standards but should not see a dip for students on track for graduation we'll be monitoring that as well and i want to remind the public we're upping the bar for everybody and keep you apprised but again thank you very much for the for the teach appreciate your efforts. >> thank you for that comprehensive report. we're at item n and there are none tonight and item o was moved and seconded under section f. the role call please. >> thank you commissioner. >> thank you. mr. hain and miss mcdonald. >> yes, except on items 1, 2, 3

11:03 am
committee met and we had two major items we actually had an informational and one was on the vaccination policy and so we've asked the staff we've looked at the vaccination policies that we have and the csba model policies and asked the staff to bring us a recommendation for what changes we would want to make if any to our own policies and that will be forthcoming at the next meeting and we began to look at the legislative issues so you all should have gotten that packet that had the agenda of the rules committee on the front and it was followed by a big fat list which has all the bills that are legislative advocates are tracking so far a
11:04 am
lot of these are spot bills just put in place and don't have content although there's a sense that this bill is probably going to be about that so we did not -- because the bills are not flushed out, we didn't take a position on many of the issues, but i recommend to you that you read this and tell us whether there are things in it that you want us to pay particular attention to remember again sorry mostly for the public if anybody is listening that the committee actually takes positions and not just make recommendations for the board, so so if you want to have input on that you have to come to the committee meeting or tell me or members of the committee what things you are interested in and i know the bill list was provided to all of you but the committee
11:05 am
did take a position and i'm going to read it just to tell you what they are because they were things that we would obviously want to take the position on or have some timely reason to have a position taken early on so baker and sb 774 fuller which are the two bills in both houses that propose to repeal the cap and that's the exact reflection of the ordinance that was proposed here in san francisco a couple of weeks ago which is proposals with safety warnings on sugar sweet ened beverages and based on the board's support for the tax proposal last year we took a support position on that and similarly and we told you that we were probably likely to do this this month, the repeal of
11:06 am
the personal belief exemption for vaccinations and ab 1391 gomez it doesn't propose to take away the instructional minutes but put a process in place to allow for an administrative process to correct if if you weren't doing what you needed to do to meet the minutes requirement the only recould recourse now is to be sued at great costs to the districts and based on our local positions on this and also the curtsy to our own representatives we took a positive position on sb 3 the proposed increase in the state minimum wage and ab 10-51 this
11:07 am
is a bill related to penalties for human sex trafficking in proximity to schools. and actually, i'm being reminded because our staff gave me this list that we actually recommended that the first reading of amended board policies on vaccinations come to the board to the board at the next meeting on on april 13th so that will be coming to you that will only be a first reading and theoretically won't have to come back to the rules committee. thank you. >> president? >> just the position that the committee took on the ending of the personal belief exemption
11:08 am
there's a resolution tomorrow night which i'm going to go and speak in favor and communicate the board's position on that and i just wanted you to be aware of that and invite anybody else to give public comment if you happen to be around the state building tomorrow night around 7. >> can i say something that the committee will follow up on i've received a request from the senator's office that we take a support position and send a letter on the community school's act that she has proposed and the hearing in the education committee is on april 8th, so we will not have another rules committee before that meeting so i have asked i sent it to -- i forwarded it to mr. davis and asked for them
11:09 am
to take a position -- i don't think -- based on our history possibly write a letter saying the district is very happy whatever we can say because we don't have a meeting between now and then. >> okay. thank you commissioner . would anyone like to announce any upcoming meetings for their committees? >> april 13th student assignment very important. it's the panel discussion we will be having so i hope that everybody will be able to attend that should be pretty interesting. >> the budget meeting? >> it's a panel discussion with a bunch of -- and i'm blanking on who it is -- but the people that have worked with us on monitoring our student assignment system over the years so it's engaging in a dialogue with us an opportunity
