members we're able to look at the destrrld the programs in deserted naindz neighborhoods is a concern the solutions is relatively simple putting magnet schools in underserved neighborhood that are there specifically to serve the needs of the people but to graduating draw in students that are also have written into their charter racial integration our proposal a stem - okay. that feeds into the willie brown school i think we're a prime candidate once that's done the school in neighborhoods is good then everyone can have local schools first thank you. >> thank you. next speaker,

please. >> commissioners in may of this year the chronicle i'm sherryly more and more in the bay area neighborhood and a residents of candle stick point i live next door to candle stick point stadium my concern is the resegregation of the san francisco unified school district and you've resegregated them along the racial lines and created an unequal environmentalist and education with that in african-american community and i think we had that conversation back in during that brown versus the board 6 percent of the population we comprise but 85 percent of the students are assigned to low performing

schools when those students are as i said to low performance schools don't get the quality of education. >> thank you. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> >> hi sheryl davis actually came here specifically to talk about the packet that were passed out today grateful for the opportunity to work with so many of the commissioners, i gave a couple of sample books but looking for the working with get out of school time to work with in the curriculum and supportive of the pathways but i think it is important to not create opportunities for italian nation or description and to make sure that everybody feels safe and comfortable and

resources that it needs simply base it is high performing b that is not always the case my program my juvenile justice program has partnered with the success center our boys need it and they will prosper gridlock we can't do it alone no program can i'm asking that you the school district you'll have the interest of the children and the school district so the most prolific landlord in the city i think that the success center should be regarded for its years and years of growth and success and it's constantly turning out
