1:41 pm
for a policy in writing it was revised for the boards policy that revision went away i realized i was not comfortable with the language because it seems to as on one hand that the president has the discussion to hold the resolution off for one meeting but also saying that the superintendents has the authority to decide what is in the jurisdiction of board my southern not so much about this board and our dynamics but alters some future board milestone might become divided that the president and the superintendent could prevent the majority of board from hearing an item so we hope assures me there are she buildings there are provisions and codes that will prevent that from happening we're protected from that my question is do we want to
1:42 pm
explicitly state in the board's rules should there is much more divide and negative board i hope will not happen to have explicit procedures for the board to get an item heard from it in the superintendent and wanting don't agree. >> thank you. the reason at the time he was satisfied with the couples answer but on reflective i was think about the rule in the first place the rule stated not only had members of the board to put on an item that was done at that time, there was a lot of conflict between the superintendent and the board of education and the president of the board at a time with the
1:43 pm
superintendent refused to call a meeting bans their authorities i actually think we needed, you know, that is the kind of thing that sxhoern described it often happens when whatever reason honestly it is when the superintendent is about to leave that theirs tensions and how those issues should be discussed we're i'm happy to be able to say and whoerldz agree that is hard to imagine but it has actually happened and it is kind of easy to imagine i don't see any ranlt here's - maybe as chair the rules committee i'll put the process outs there a minute we should pass this today, i know our general
1:44 pm
council is hoping we do it been a while he should if we have coincidence to write that as part of title. >> legal council. >> so this may shock you i'll recommend that you send this back to committee if this is something you want to put if here's the reason he can't consecutive how the boards as a quorum determines to put something on the agendas without violating rules we need to hash through what you're trying to accomplish here because 4 board members need to get together to decide asking discuss weather to put something on the agendas it is hard to not see you're not be kwaej in the meeting not to be
1:45 pm
noticed perhaps another way to addresses our concerns i'm not sure we should side that in this meeting. >> i completely see that we call a meeting the rules committee whoever attending other board members attends as augmented the committee rights that's how we have this discussion in public. >> but can't take action the committee on something you've not agendized i can't. >> county the chair put on an action item saying discussion about agendas. >> can i i'm sorry, i don't mean to wrestler the control if you're okay with sending this to committee we'll do that folded a problem i think that is pretty clear the provision we're
1:46 pm
talking about pain we can't find a legal way to describe we'll not have an issue but it seems to me we need to be a separates section and therefore you don't think i don't have any objection to our passing this together and referring to the rules committee so even though it maybe cleaner which is it we'll redo the section of the baupz bylaws there is nothing wrong with adding this to the meeting procedures and agendas section of bylaws; is that correct. >> well, my only hesitation is adding the goal of being able to call and meeting or put someone o something on the agendas when you get into the language it is difficult to consecutive the language to be putting in here
1:47 pm
tonight. >> i'm against doing it tonight i'll in favor of passing it this to the committee and the section be added. >> i agree i have commissioner fewer and commissioner walton for the record that i'm willing to look at this amendment i'm in the minority most of times hard to get 4 people to agree on something but having i know i seen it before because i've been in this district a long time i've seen the boards that are contention and fractured and seen the superintendent play roles they shouldn't play as a superintendent and i'm saying not this one but past ones we're
1:48 pm
stewards are we have a whether i mean to say we're not here forever i'm willing to entertain that and ask commissioner norton if she has language contrasted i say this i'm in the miranda most of times a process that protection for further board who should be after hereafter 2016 i believe yeah. thank you. >> commissioner walton. >> i was going to do ask a sclaifr question to commissioner norton's point i think that could happen if we're in a committee meetings with more than 3 board members majority can put something on the committee or other instances you have a majority of board
1:49 pm
members not in violation of the things something like that can happy and instances that fall under. >> so i understand your question from the committee has noticed an action item the establishment of an additional board meeting and then a majority of the board attendance this committee and rotates for that to happen; right? >> not necessarily 90s the action item but having a discussion about something we want to see happen and bring that up and getting it actionable whether it is in review the superintendent and leadership for the next agenda, etc. had people that know what is going on and want to see come forward. >> we don't have to get this
1:50 pm
straight right now. >> i'll suggest one to go to committee that is how we schedule meetings now. >> if we had a rule that said any members of the board call a liaison will that will legal. >> it would be legal without talking about things out of sequence that's how the board members can get into trouble with the brown act. >> but we don't have an articulated rule that says any members of the boards can ask a liaison to poll the members. >> can i say i think this policy
1:51 pm
it is too vague i just think there is a way of reading this policy from the presidents didn't want to put it on the agendas and the superintendent didn't want it on the agendas the rule allows them to do that i have a suggestion how to accomplish our concerns i'm happy to talk about tonight if if is pleasure the prude pleasu the board. >> if i formally ask that go into the next agendas. >> what is under consideration now is the policy as amended with the understanding that the issue of before i begin items forward for the agendas will be sent to the rules committee superintendent. >> thanks president murase i want to respectfully ask if it comes back to the
1:52 pm
rehabilitations from the rules committee provides guidance how to evaluate whether the suggested portfolio is being commissioners, that places you under president reports and announcements herd to and move to a better articulated policy how will we know if it is working. >> so that will be discussed at the rules committee. >> i think we're ready for a vote ms. casco roll call vote. >> thank you as all the times by turf ms. chin mr. totiano ms. fewer. >> mr. haney ms. mendoza-mcdonnell moreno ms. norton mruflt ms. wynns president murase. >> next go do you want the board policies facilitiesless
1:53 pm

1:55 pm
update on who we are and where we are looking to go with this initiative mr. dickey. >> good evening again commissioners thank you for the opportunities to share the work of african-american achievement and leadership initiative about you and the partnership webinar public here as you may know i starred that work at the inn the
1:56 pm
winter of that past year and we've taken several important step to moves forward and have many more steps in front of us i have 3 main objectives in speaking to you so first i'll provide a brief overview and refresher on the context of the african-americans leadership initiative second i'll share how we've begun to organize and track the work going forward and i plan to provide a well given what is take place under the theory of action and provides a deeper initiative that is the african-american post secondary pathways and joined by peter's koffman within the district the key partners and cbos from the
1:57 pm
communities i'm sorry, i apologize but the sliesdz on the screen are slanting to the rights hopefully our presentation in front of you i'll noting not reads the slides verbiage barriers to the african-american students that result in a achievement gap and disproportionate we currently build on the work bring in the boarder community and develop the strategy with us and establish annual goals and work plans to support of chucht and focus for the any brooks my
1:58 pm
brother's keeper with the other resolution in support of achievement and success of african-american students in the san francisco unified school district was passed in the month of may this year and it was comprehensive resolution that asked us to do several key things listed in front of you and list to close the discipline gap for the african-american students in 6 years required monitoring for regular students and school level data and strengthening the pathways for post secondary success and reducing the bias and empowering systemic issues for supporting african-american students the drawings on previous work done with the district and bring
1:59 pm
together different convenes ever plans we've established our district has an ax or statement how we think to get to the outcomes to achieve that action is in front of you and states that if we tackle 4 components we will close the achievement gap if we deport to the it is a technical way of saying if we come together to building in the intelligence of our beautiful black students to the fixed they can achieve with the proper support if we focus on body camera and firmly and combvr the african-american families and wrap up around sport and readiness to learn and have the african-american with rigorous instruction we'll have rebuilt the trust of the african-american community our
2:00 pm
students and families and creating conditions for the students to be prepared for life studies beyond their years consistent with vision 2025 there are medics metrics we're developing the scorecard in front of you to track our goals over the next 6 years we launched the african-american oversight committee and prepared to have the next meeting at the end of this month with the superintendent and deputy superintendent we've asked the heads to have the goals listed the strategies that are utilizing the african-american achievement and each department will be directed to set end of the year targets for others goals that led to the closing
2:01 pm
the gaps over the next 6 years has been alluded to previously and calls think is resolution in order to achieve those goals it requires a different level of organizations in the district at the end of last year the african-american siding was any grad to strengthen the african-americans leaders and district leadership and the board of education we held our meeting inform august and hold our meeting on the third thursday you've received that in our packet earlier today our african-american external oversight committee launch and now the ends of the week a cohort of school sites identified for their african-americans achievement gap and the work of aa i o r with the strength of the policy and
2:02 pm
where you are policy has failed to advance the african-american achievement and in the past of our annual student report you'll get a version in the winter of 2016 and a fill school report from the fall of 2016 following the releases of the a pack data and finally the african-american community council will connect the community-based leaders to provide inputs for the student report and deliver the recommendations as the district priorities that's slated to launch with the application process in the next month in november and this group will be a 4 partner with the student report. >> ultimately the level of
2:03 pm
organizations is only effective as it helps us to you achieve the had convenes of our theory of action i'll move through deliberate speeds to give you what is happening over the 4 components of theory of action and do a deeper discussion of a body of work we started leading in the spring the african-american post secondary pathway so in terms of of how this looks at for the district and how we are thinking of the school work for the 2015-2016 supporting outline educators for a gross mindset that means looking to build on the work around self-affirmation we have a tool kits of strategies that are shown to improve attendance and
2:04 pm
we've started to permit that at some of the school sites we seek so learn from how their mentioned and look to expand them to additional school sites for the racial equalities led by the office of equalities they're shifting their strategies to school sites part of my work to learn with the the implementation and bring that to others sites throughout the district in terms of focusing on how to effective engage and empower part of the early work to formula lists a pack and start to encourage and support of development of school site impacts to make sure that as a pack mentioned we're raising the voices in our communities the african-american communities council is a 4 part of our plan
2:05 pm
to empower and looking to launch an african-american student week under the most month of january be an opportunity to revisit the opportunities and have a task to celebration of the african-american students at our sites this one a bold finding a deeper dive around our comprehensive wrap up around support some of the work underway is that through our p funding it is supporting the mid train program two additional school sites and take into account outreach to the african-american students to connect them to mentors and i'll share there the african-americans pathway to support and build a stronger post activities for
2:06 pm
african-american students. >> and finally on the point around rigorous instruction and academic support we're leveraging our partnering for a structural achievement and holding a sfusd submit on november 13th that highlights those effective practices and also through the budgets that was passed in the spring we'll be looking to launch a school site fund specifically inform award to schools that are doing initiative work to sort of african-american achievement taking steps for culture and climate whether this guess african-american parental are parents advisory committee or other bodies of work so assistance i now wanted to turn to the african-american post secondary pathways how it relates to the theory of action
2:07 pm
components number 3. >> so just to give you a little bit of background in the spring of 2015 we launched the african-american second post pathway and with the mayor's office and the san francisco foundation about a dozen based organizations the purpose of our work to approach the african-american achievement to start with the students and identify a group of african-american students and learn about the challenges flerp facing and providing a timely supports the unidentified focus on 12 graders from the brothers and sisters my brother's keeper took place in january of 2015 and a desire to insure that along with supporting as a districts of african-american stoplight we are tied to the broader objective around remaining the african-american population from the city and providing a pathway
2:08 pm
for the young people to access high paying options that allow them to work and live in the city with this larger goal and as i've discussed with the a pack strongly respect their feedback the approach to support the grades k through 12 through with the pathway looks like we started off by identifying the number of students seek to service serve that is 2 med had had and 20 african-american students as recorded by sfusd and reached it out other cbos cbos to get an sense of the students they were serve and actually found end up with 200 and 53 that is explained 0 through identify themselves self-report their racial
2:09 pm
identity one of the key things we know that our student families support also emphasize it is incredible important for our students to have a strong connection for the communities 0 community-based organizations to help to manage our families and pathways through the 9 to 12 grade and post secondary as i was going out the school sites and meeting the staff we found there or will one or one hundred 4 students that are associated with the community-based organizations in the posted secondary pathways with those students in one program and in the battalion in 2, 3, 4 programs this was a red flag it tells us about the school sites we haven't developed the rigor to
2:10 pm
insure that all our students are connected that helps prepare them for college and career assess we strongly building a necessary compliant to the district through adams plan ahead and other course work to prepare the students for college in may again 200 and 80 african-american on the sfusd roles that one 13 students were transparent to a 2 or 4 year institutions this is an important proxy of the college education process we need provide stronger support to the students as we begin that process just to walk you through what this process and intervention looks like we leveraged the befrp with an erection calls i
2:11 pm
don't understand 12 and a grants to provide access to the i don't understand 12 students and beyond the telephone program beyond 12 is alumni track record that helps us to monitor how this is post secondary and provided college coaching and an access to a app for college education he went to the 17 high schools sites within the i don't understand 12 and linked in to start to orient and support of students in developing a career profile that is crucial hair developing their successfully bridge to post secondary wherewith the ground we've linked in the the celebration
2:12 pm
that includes the college and career workshops you mean by the time by the time we reached the summary we have one and 5 students enrolled from the beyond devil it is a wake up call we are encouraged to provide a service to the number of students know we need to work deliberately to make sure we remain all the students and if not through this service understanding an appropriate get students engaged now we've reached the fall we are leveraging our local universe the city colleges of san francisco and state of to connect with students to make sure their he receiving support our focus it city college we know that within 5 years of attending city college only 10 percent of our african-american
2:13 pm
students end up getting a degree so move on to a four-year universities we feel a strong urgency to the students approximately the one and 7 students didn't submit a 2 or 4 year transcript to institutions. >> as you think about this work. >> intention to map backward we work that we've learned important messages and delivering the building of relationships going forward with through our grant we've received from the collaborative for change there provide us with $400,000 over the next two years to meet this we'll continue to engage the graduates and
2:14 pm
concerning a set of experience and specifically we're working with a clafsh of cbo's to provide intake essentially for our derrick or determining but submitted to a four-year transcript we're learning about their educational history and helping them to develop a post secondary history to provide for actively of active case managements as we look at grades 9 through 12 we've been working closely with the college and career readiness in over high school team to articulate our goals with the students we want to insure there is increased participation in an avid program i'll be making a push in the
2:15 pm
actual within the next month to connect with the black student units at the each the high schools and expose as to the to the programs to start the process of improperly our ethnicity graders supported matter of fact grade and i don't understand for a forum for that the african-americans ninth graders supposed to be tracking their plan college protocol portfolio which is an important readiness how they're prepared to ultimately navigate to the college and looking to repeat intervention we provide for the college beyond 12 linked in and summary job support another intervention working with some of our businesses included
2:16 pm
salesforce and linld in to xeshg connect the students to job opportunities so this is a visible for those it, it is helpful what we're looking at to achieve through the bridge to high school to post secondary and a career option what is important about this work is that again, we made the decision to focus on the billboards to share this broadly with families and work towards specific targets in terms of the programs and it is indicative gordon's with the african-american oversight committee to provide support around specific students in middle school and he elementary school level
2:17 pm
>> thank you, mr. dickey i don't have any public speakers so is there any skegz from my colleagues. >> scomplult commissioner walton thank you for your work mr. dickey and definitely see we can see the results of your work especially in this short period of time we have a couple of steams and questions how colons have we been working with the personnel on the ground for
2:18 pm
greatest outcomes involving the community at the end of the day how we teach and how the students learn impest. >> so i would say negligence of the african-american post secondary pathways has a focus on wrap up around supports but as you look at the african-american oversight committee one the next things we'll be addressing at the upcoming meeting the intervention and what are the strategies we are employing at the districts and in the classroom to make sure is students have the platform to catch and in development request the work of career readiness through the summer programs and the rising go ninth graders and
2:19 pm
eight graders the acceleration work for those students and then is obviously in terms of targeted initiatives specific african-americans students we're looking for the african-americans ornament committee. >> and the reason he ask that request, of course, we look at page of on the goal scorecard smaller balance assessments and saw the data in terms of how our black students across the district we have to come up with a robust strategy to work with the educators and school personnel oug everyday on slide had and we talked about this in terms of what schools have the best practices do we have a list of those schools i don't need that now i can think of a couple in my head a list of schools
2:20 pm
that are maybe have confusion how to roll that out and teams work together to come up with some of the best practices solutions work in those schools. >> from the most aspect data we developed a listing of school sites and their map proficiency on the la proficiency for african-american students we're actual going to bring one the sites into the aa i oc meeting to have a deeper discussion in what practices to produce the higher statistics for the african-american sites so this is a list we can kind of fast track in terms of actually codifying the different strategies we're not quite there
2:21 pm
yet but have lists of schools for stronger achieving african-american students. >> you thank you for the great work with the collective within the communities because we talked about this a pack prevention presentation that will take everyone to bring the communities together parents and cbos and across the city so thank you for the next level of work. >> commissioner norton commissioner vice president haney and then commissioner wynns. >> so my question actually about the class of 2016 it sounds like you learned a lot from the class of 2015 in the presentation that in 2015 after additional cbos you identified a 200 and 53 african-american
2:22 pm
students and i'm wondering have we identified that for 2016 it seems like we - i think that is great we're thinking not only about seniors but raising eight graders and the whole high school continuum it seems like we learned a lot from the last class and reach out and identify those students that are qualified to attend a four-year college and encourage them to take that next step and is there any of that work go on. >> we relaying compleen a group around the african-american plus secondary packets we work with the college and career readiness have this information as part of any work
2:23 pm
i'll be visiting the brake sustainability meetings and going to the principals with the african-americans students and the on track and off track data and starting to populate the cbos they're connected with again, much earlier in the academic year so, yeah we're from the lessons in the spring trying to be more intentional about the deliberate and quicker outreach and setting expectation but with we expect from our students we discussed earlier today where the earlier graze connection to the enrollment in a cbo and the enrollment of a post secondary plan so, yes we will be identifying the students. >> do you know how big that university is. >> i don't have the number off the top of my head but i'll be
2:24 pm
happy to share that data. >> commissioner haney and then commissioner wynns. >> thank you for this presentation this work i think there's a lot of happening so congratulations on the amount of progress so 40 far i have a couch u couple questions one the data that was tracked by the external oversight committee so i think that we heard earlier that we're talking about roughly 45 hundred african-american students in your district i have some sense of what this looks like in the cohort and high school but will we have a way of tracking and analyzing that this part of interim committee for all the day or individuals listed day we are looking
2:25 pm
process and certain indicators and interventions to have a way to systemize we talked about that the way i kind of understood that is like a system that tells us at certainty points something niece to be happening here is that how you would think so and where are we kind of that process and i don't understand the piece around the high schools i think is really intentional i think to have an understanding that is one piece of that and how howe these things in the supports practice but how all of this sort of comes to bring about institutional change in the districts so you know one of the things for example, here and
2:26 pm
commissioner walton brought up a question about certain schools that are doing well and that kind of things one of the things new programs academic themes and so forth so go looking at where we are doing a better job how to replicate that in the process would be how you understand that life cycle ever change gordon's the african-american student report with a set of recommendations how and our budget year our you know board and the work of board district for recommendations around change understanding how this leads to the level of systemic institutional change and to sorts of specific things one is and this is brought up but kind of the role of student leadership in all of this and back student unions i know was
2:27 pm
mentioned you know that it is that a part of goal the elevation of student leadership in this work and how are we working closely with our students and getting their ideas and thoughts and putting them at the forefront of this work we would like to know about that i saw in here the piece around the mentoring for second and the need to have more merntsz identified so i would love for anyone listening to put out the plug we are actually shorts adult mentors in our school district and need more caring adults rialto spends hair time with young people to step forward there are 4 hundred students who are have been identified and have asked for a
2:28 pm
mentor who we have yet to find a mentor for and that's our forum so i know we're putting forward a plan anyone that is listening this is a need if you want to speak to that in terms of the role of mentors and the need for merpts as part of the african-american leadership initiative and see the work specifically. >> so starting back at the point around the use of data and what that looks like not just for the high school students but across the 3ru7 system as we have certain tools i've been leveraging with the communities department and the basic system
2:29 pm
that tracks the attention and as well as the illuminate system we're using to create customized reports around their academic performance and ultimately planned to expand to track services their captured and illuminates i say that will to the cohort of schools we're pulling up more school sites by school sites and i assume we have a clean way to does it on a district wide level when it comes down to the student tracking introduce the rp a we have is pre k through the medics laid out and that's to regularly share with the african-american oversight committee but to your point part find what we need to
2:30 pm
do going forward is think about the data short concept how we illuminate or ideal not a system but leverage the systems to be able to create that nimble report in terms of the tracking and intervention tracking it is easy for smaller cohorts aaron rather than is four to five hundred in terms of how we are thinking about instill change i say it is absolutely the african-american internal oversight committee as you think about the cycle for a subset of students learn the work and identify he have 0 the champs about our conversation of the r ti this thursday and you know from that those discussions
2:31 pm
really identify additional resources or additional systems are approaches needed in order to bring the work to scale ambassador but that african-american report will be responsible for capturing the different - the way we assess our systems and bring forward the recommendations as we think about resource allocation and different processes the district needs to put in place as we think about the students leadership completely agree with you that is something that needs to be you know as i've cabin about the work something that is missing i've subtracted through the does the with the high school work but not circling them in a leadership but the black student through the 12 graders to think though how to identify student leaders that
2:32 pm
are interested in on a border body regularly informed plans to be central that to with work so we believe strong because of the you know significant work and the work underway at the school sites to be encouraging leadership from those bodies that exist and cults the have and have not's that group and last think is mernts success point so i'll be having a conversation with that group actually in the coming weeks i agree i want to put a plug outs i'm planning on sign up as a mentors and for more outreach to get people involved in that program one the things i'll focus on as we move forward to better advertise and publicize
2:33 pm
that need to get it out to a wider group. >> thank you science and then commissioner mendoza-mcdonnell. >> thank you i appreciate the report i have to say a couple of things are we serving charter schools what is 17 comprehensive high schools we have i don't think we have that many. >> so that includes the continuation schools so for the african-american post secondary pathways i haven't done an outreach at this time. >> you haven't. >> okay. you haven't don't (laughter). >> we have i mean it is really in that rather than the high school arena we are unique amongst any school districts but larger school districts many of our high school are extremely
2:34 pm
improve in my opinion it was my intention i don't think we have 17 but i'll look up the list mainly i want to say i appreciate the work we're doing and the personas are partnerships i'm concerns on the internship on the kindergarten i'm not sure that is our core work so i really want to urge we have a lot important emphasis great we have those programs set them up and let them run i think so your funder and partners are interested i'm glad about frankly i think that in a sense this is a their core work our core work is educating k through
2:35 pm
12 and preparing some pre k students for the as many was we want to influence but i'm very interested in what specific plans we have i also would like to see if if there is so experience somebody can tell me about the theory of starting with the 12 grartsdz and the posters secondary and moving adopt to high school is actually effective because a i'm concerned we should be starting much earlier because this is you're always fighting against previous not only lack ever success but our own capacity dwichts at the other grades i'm hoping i'd like to to see a plan that says here's what we are
2:36 pm
doing this is a great and here's our plan really for the whole continuum the reason he brought of pre k before because of the work that you're doing now we've done this year with the post secondary is the partnership with the outdoor partners cbos and donations, etc. in the pre k area i think our primary work should be with outside partners because one the main thing is formula cooperation all our students not certainly a small number in our early education system we actually have a way to contact them with deep relationships but also many are not in preschool at all we have work to do going back to you
2:37 pm
know prenatal work we do one the contract points we really could capitalize is on birth that is most students most children born in san francisco are born under a hospital where the city and whoever we want to partner with can have an impact on the early very well times it is crucial but our own work with what we do in the pre k system see a specific plan that is more focused i think that is really important. >> superintendent would like to respondent respond. >> science you've brought up wonderful points i want to refocus all ever us on the guiding principles we talked about thai initiation of this
2:38 pm
organized work this is the most orgdz the district is in a long time one point of of the things the pre k brought up we often want to eat the whole elephant in the first bite and not identifying strands of work what you're seeing a cereal identified strands analysis of where we're doing to make our steps forward so it may seem as if there is not a lot of work happening at the different levels of the organization but that lisa me to the second point that is really important to understand lands and dickey is not the african-american guy in the district it didn't rest with him that rests with all of us in the district in his, his pregnancy and update i can talk
2:39 pm
about that we're doing a lot work under the chief bryant and her team and incredible eagle education level we are identifying can i see at a very, very early age of wrap around programs with the universities and city that is happening in the pre k as we've been supporting the teaching staff around the common core standards embedded within that professional development is the culturesly we've got to be honest with ourselves we have a bias if you look at the data and see that students of color are not having access to rigorous courses it is their fault or are is systems fault we are saying it is the systems fault with all
2:40 pm
