to proposition 39. the primary objective, and this is something that is set by the state of california this education audit appeals panel list out these specific scope requirements which is to ensure that expenditures are listed projects on each of the authorization and ensure that they're capitol instruction project and then salaries that need to be consistent with this general opinion which says that you can charge salaries to the bond program as long as there is a direct nexus, folks who are working directly in support of bond activities. next slide please. and, the conclusions high level conclusions but one expenditure align with the voter listing, which really means that there were no deviations, no we call

them findings, no instances of non compliance that were identified pay roll expenditures similarly with the attorney general opinion which means that there were no exceptions in the audit. evidence of compliance with public bidding and procurement requirements change order with district policy as well as law provisions. probably the only, i guess the exception, finding for 2019, which i think everyone knows about has been resolved by today as we saw the presentation by the cboc but for 2019 district members reach their term limits so there was a period where there was not a cboc in place. and actually next slide please. and you can skip this one.

as for the financial statements, three big take aways, couple of pages on there but there is a paragraph that says, financial statements referring to fairly, and financial position of each of the bond funds and that's i'm calling unmodified or clean opinion. there were no in control related to the financial statement sxz then compliance is a government standards opinion, if there was non compliance with the performance audit that could result financial impact with the district that would be required to be called out in the compliance opinion and that is not the case. i would say, clean unmodified compliance opinion. so next slides are not here. we just need to provide an opportunity to ask questions. but that concludes my presentation, i'll turn it over to you folks.

>> i would like to offer for public comment. fact of the matter if there was

not a cboc for three years, and this is absolutely gaslighting, on the fact that the district spent money with out the hider statutory oversight. this is a shocking thing, so casually saying that everything is okay. and, i got to be honest, we have to take a hard look at ourselves. because we don't know what happened with 744 million dollars. so i really would hope in transparency, and being truthful to ourselves that we face this reality. thank you. >> thank you. that concludes virtual public comment. >> okay, colleagues i would like to open up for comments.

vice president bogus. >> i have a question that's a little bit separate from the audit process that happened that shows the majority is in compliance or the things that got out of compliance got into compliance. is there a broader assessment made by the district and selecting the project, the way they were executed and things like that. and our ability to gauge that assessment separate from where we checked all the boxes. >> yes, the audit works, like an exel formula. and then has objective outcome which is, do those expenditures comply with the use and it's kind of yes or no or black and white.

there is tons of other operational questions or things that could be subjective that would not be noted through these procedures. and i guess i'm wondering how internally whether or not this is the way we wanted it to go and kind of how we use that information as our future planning. >> commissioner, it is been i think for me personally, since i joined the district and evolving conversation with my own leadership team within the bond program and we have spent a lot of time on our lessons learned on the implementation as well as the earlier g.o.bonds. we've had a lot of conversation in response to one advocacy on the selection of projects and i think the capitol continue assessment that we are

implementing right now is a widely accepted best practice for thinking about capitol portfolio or size and kinds of capitol needs we have. so i just point us to as an important step forward and then after that, using that data in collaboration with the board of education to have open policy conversations about our what our goals are. and then developing scenarios that respond to the goals. we have also had earlier conversations who is really gotten right into the details of our bond program that there is work to be done around how we scope our projects to begin with. and that a lot of the change order differences that have been noted not only by the

public but by myself and other members of our team, have more to do in my opinion in kind of a rush to scope projects then they do deliver projects adequately. and in fact represents the opposite that maybe we should have been realistic so as we go into bond planning, those are lessons that are top of me and my team. >> thank you for that. >> yeah, i had a follow-up to that. this may be outside of the traditional audit. following up on cboc recommendation around the procedures and policies around how do we monitor the scope of change and you know, are we, going to be exploring how do we

monitor that, 100% of threshold, i think it's really helpful because given, you know, for example public works project. right, things that we're going to cost a particular amount i would love to have, you explain a bit more than what are the next steps around these recommendations. >> well absolutely. i think for one, we do monitor this data relentlessly. and as well as our program management consulting firm may do for us as a team. and that's an important checks and balance. so we have our own program manager and staff and consultants who are also providing and going through this data as the project is delivered and reporting on that both myself and our bond

program manager lucyna. what we noticed i'll emphasize again is we need to change the way we're scoping projects and to do more workup front to define goals and what we want to accomplish with them. and i think that will make a big step forward. i think ten percent is a pretty normal base line measure that is, you know, considered acceptable with the industry. and then often times in my experience when you have site conditions, you have very old sites that nobody touches for a long time. you will see numbers that trend above that. but the point from cboc is that you constantly analyzing and reflecting on the source of the change orders. so when you see, when i worked

on mission dolores park, we had dramatic swings as the stream turned out and that you can note that and observe that as you report to the board and request additional funds fm that's a real difference from scope creep or for example, errors and driven change order. so we do collect that data and analyze it. and i think that we need to be better about communicating with the board as we move forward with these requests about what is the source of the changes for the driver. >> thank you. commissioner alexander? >> i had a different question kind about the auditing process. and i guess i'm still a little confused as to why we're getting the 2017 audit now. so i don't know mr. edelman, how long have you been our

auditor for these projects? >> for me, 2022 will be my sixth year. >> so i'm curious about your experience. did you, was it strange to have this long of a delay? did you know that the cboc was not meeting. i guess i'm trying to understand the roll and keeping us accountable to what we need to be doing? >> oh yeah, so the 20, 18 and 19 that report was discussed with the cboc at the time that was completed for a while. and i cannot speak about how the process goes to become agendized for the board. and then the 2019 report, there was no cboc and that was also during covid and just delays for everything.

so there is a catch up process that is going through now to try and get things back to their historical schedules. >> so you and i completed the 2017-18 audit and you sent it to district staff? >> yeah, i think. >> i'm just trying to understand. >> i'm happy to step here. there was an audit that was completed and it was sent to cboc then fell out of the terms all expired. so we went through a period we talked about this i'm happy to repeat. so we spent about a year leadership transition as the former chief officer left the district; there is an interim chief facilities officer that i joined.

so a lot of things are piling up and then audits on a prepared on a lag from the fiscal year that they conclude. so by the time that we're completing the fy 19, we're also then heading into a period where we're >> i understand, i guess my question was in the roll of the auditor. i'm trying to understand the role of the auditor. do we select, how do we select auditors to make sure that they're i understand and if they're also saying, if they submitted something that they have not heard back, they ought to come back and say how what

happened with this? i would differ to mi oninglee but there is an rfp conducted every few years. >> that's correct. so for trying day as mentioned. has been our auditor for the general obligation program audits as well as our an actual statement and a couple of other revenue measures for several years. so if you have not already seen this some information in

response to a question to that commissioner metomoni asked. that this is already under way. i just don't know if the report has been provided to commissioners or not. we will be doing an rfp for audit services and chief financial officer meghan, jump in if i get this wrong. that is planned to take place in the 22-23 fiscal year. and for our overall financial statement that's would be to conduct the audit for fy22-23 year. we do have separate engagements. so that will not necessarily

the rfp would not necessarily apply to all the different measures. februarier if i missed miss spoken there, then please. okay, i'm getting the thumbs up from chief wallace. >> yes, that's very helpful. is would love to have an audit that is really going to have us. that's the whole point if somebody says hey, if we prepared an audit and give them to staff and nothing happens, if there is, that to me seems like a basic, red flag that ought to be included in an audit. i think we want to be held accountable as a public agency and we want to make sure that

our auditor understand that that is part of our role. additional comments. being able to see what the packages are even a summary that could be a follow-up would be particularly helpful as wooer stliefg store our that tlans parent see and john gray gave us that training recently i think it's really important as our governoring body in the fiscal accountability side. so look forward to that follow-up. and perhaps commissioner alexander through budget and services, i don't know how appropriate it is to follow-up with budget staff, that would

be helpful. all right, at this time i would like to have roll call vote for both items for the audit fiscal year as well as 2018 2019. >> president, especially orders item 2 and 3, commissioner alexander. >> yes. >> vice president vogue us. >> yes. >> commissioner should you. >> yes. >> commissioner meboni. >> yes. >> commissioner sanchez. >> yes. >> commission ward. >> yes. >> president lam. >> yes. >> 7 ayes. >> thank you, it's now 10:00 o'clock so i would like to have a motion to second to extend our board meeting beyond 10:00 o'clock. >> so moved. second. >> no objection, consensus. okay. we have now exceeded the 10:00

o'clock. all right, item number 4, 225 frntion 10s04 and issue final noticeds. i would like a motion and a second. >> second. >> dr. mackey introduce this designee . >> introducing this into the record is kristen. >> good evening, my name is christine i'm your head human resource officer and i'm joined by my colleague. and we're here to talk about the layoffs and some other staffing processes. and i want to note that based

on some feedback that i received this afternoon, i added one slide and hid in another, so my deck the first slightly from the website so i'll upload it tomorrow. okay, we'll go to the next slide. as a reminder. i leave the human resources charged with recruiting and developing and retaining racially and otherwise diverse workforce to ensure that every day we provide every student the quality instruction of support necessary to thrive in the 21st century and it's our job that we have a number of position sxz employees so we don't end up under staffed or over staffed. when i talked to to you

previously in march, about this balance, we were projecting the reductions that you can see on this slide right now. as maximum position reductions or layoff in each of these jobs categories. so this is what we w*e shared in march. on the next slide is showing you our current and actual need for layoffs. you can see for example that we projected a maximum layoff 151 credentials educators, we'll issue layoff to five of those educators because we have no vacancies in those credential areas. you can also see that we'll layoff 15 administrators although all of them will be rehired into vacant positions.

i've listed here the--positions. this is not resulting in laid off these are employees that are leaving and therefore we're closing these positions. and listing here the layoff in local 21 our international of professional engineers employees and there will be some additional layoffs of civil service employees so these are not, the process is still under way. so we don't have the final numbers yet. so you might be asking yourself, why did we project a maximum of over 211 layoffs and only need to go layoff 27, and 7 civil service. so you might remember, that in sf u.s. d, we believe in budgeting because we want school communities who are closest to students to make budget and staffing position to see best serve the students.

and those budget and staffing plans are submitted by march 25th but status by march 15th. so that we means we have to use a variety to make sure best estimates until we have actual data which we get in april. so you can see we're using retirement and enrollment projections, vacancies central office reductions leads into our best guess. but in a year in which we have deficit, we take a conservative approach not relying on hope for resignations to accommodate closed position when estimating a production enforce. so, i think on the next slide, there we go, so we submitted to closing 166 positions in our

budget plan, equaling roughly 15 million of spending reductions. and we have closed all of those positions. but we have been able to accommodate all the educators leaving those positions into our current vacancies. that's making the needs for layoffs unnecessary for almost all employees. unfortunately we don't have or anticipate vacancies. necessitating the layoff of those employees but should my of these positions open, we will call those laid off teachers for the next 9 months. so we're asking of you tonight, is to approve the resolution to adopt the proposed decision. to resinned certain layoff nurses that means most of them and issue final notices for a few. and i thought i would also

provide an update on the analysis of our central office as we committed to doing the december 14th board meeting, we set out to answer the question listed on this next slide, there it is, staff and organize central administration to further reduce the district's costs while still maining this legal obligations. so just wanted to share that we completed phase one of three phases through 38 interviews, we developed scenarios and dr. matthews made changes that were reflective of the large turnover in senior and school leadership. and we will begin phase 2 of this phase three process in june who will conduct a comparative analysis of central office as compared to other districts of similar size. so what happens next?

where are we going from here? ideally if you approve this, we're going to rescind on the preliminary layoff notices to all employees not listed for actual layoff and send final layoff to the 20 certificated employees who will layoff. we'll call back as soon as the position in their credential area becomes available that's 24 months probation ire' and 39 months for permanently teachers. we will continue to hire where we're going to likely see through spring and summer and in the spirit we'll be learning from the challenges that we experienced this time around to improve staffing processes for future years. that's all. >> thank you.

at this time i would like to open for public comment. i have two and i'll call have just and celina shu first. and then we'll have president go afterwards. >> thank you, thank you board members. this is much bert news than we anticipated really appreciate for the effort i'm still seeing one japanese teacher hopefully you find position to see retain them. it is not easy to have our teachers spend so much time devoted to our school district.

we should try everything to retain them. thank you. >> hi, this is he lena shu gefn, thank you for listening to our families and students and just everyone in san francisco. everyone including myself we want this school district to school. we want the public school system to work. so i'm glad you know, you know took considerations and look at the people who came out today earlier which is something somebody told me there was a lot of folks coming out to voice for their teachers for, you know, the quality of education that all students, you know, deserve. so please look into all options to keep as many teachers as we can because it's painful that we're going through the

pandemic and we're also losing teachers at the same time. as everything reopens there will be more kids coming back. we're building trust so we need to, we need to provide the service that they deserve. thank you. >> good evening, president of u.s. f i trust that you pass will pass and take this recommendation. of course this is not near and dear to our heart but requirement of functioning in our schools of grave concern is the coming vacancies and potentially heading off so the of the exodus that people had planned. this goes a long way in making sure that folks know that they are secure and that they can remain, if not within their own community within the unified school district where they may be able to engage with the same communities when they entered into the profession.

i would like to name that so many of this stress and strife that we attempted to sur tail is still very much real for students and families who are still advocating for jrtc and for an increased japanese program. and to the point to which i would like to hammer in is the plan should have plan enactable and going for increasing enrollment by having a robust strategy itself. i know firsthand a school that had a lot of influx where our principal worked with parents and the following year we saw that. we made an organizing plan to make sure that our school had the students from our feeder schools signing up. this is entire pos, the building trust is very true in bringing students to our high quality and excellent public

school system. thank you. >> i would like to call claudia anderson, you have two minutes. >> thank you. good evening, superintendent matthew commissioners and staff. good evening i'm alan wong coexecutive of uusf. n.my position is u u.s. f is supporting administrative and we're here because what you have presented to you now is a list of certificated administrator slated for layoffs. what is going to be presented to you a little later in this meeting is a list of certificated administrator for order of operations matters. most of the names for this

layoff list are from one division, student family services division and several of these layoff names are going represented to you on the appointment list. we're here to point out that the district action of laying these members off as administrators sighting an administrator that they may do this, they may move forward based on lack of funding is not justified as affective 63022 and then several of them are being brought back as administrator not 7/1/22. some terminate the contract and another is sequence leading to three-year contract. that's why when you see the list for appointments, you're going to see that there are one-year appointmented.

and we're here to say that a, there is no break in service for these administrator and most of them are returning to the same positions. the same classifications, the same division that they are now being laid off for. so we would argue that there is no rational, based on funding or lack of funding for the removal of these employees. we also program administration that people on that list are also being negatively impacted not so much by budget but structural changes and that these members should be protected by our contract which says, that there is salary should be guaranteed for the duration of their contract. we ask that you look at the intent and impact of these actions, we ask that you seriously question and consider

rescinding these layoff as you know necessary and unfair, thank you very much. public comment please. >> if you would like to give public comment on this resolution, please raise your hand. you'll have one minute to speak can we please that translated in spanish and chinese. [speaking spanish] >> thank you. gloria. >> hi, can you hear me. >> hi. i think that public comment might have been on this employee earlier this evening. but i'm just learning about the

layoff staff member of christina flores, she was given a non reelect which came to her on friday. >> i'm sorry so cut you off gloria, right now we're responding to the presentation that be just heard. >> okay. thank you. >> thank you. that does conclude our virtual public comment for this item. >> at this time comment from board members. >> commissioner sanchez. >> thank you, overall, i really better picture that's been painted today than two months ago. so thank you for the hard work. i'm wondering if you have a response to u a's concerns regarding members being essentially weighed off one day and being brought back the next day and their contracts being modified.

can you respond to that? >> yes. so specifically in the department that u a was asking about because of the reductions in cases for that department, they did a massive reorganization of the work. and they determined that the positions were going to be different enough, they were going to be different enough that they could not just slide existing employees into new positions, they had to actually close all the positions and then rethink how they were going to organize the work and then rewrite the positions and then hire the employees into the new positions. and the legal department advised because of the significant shift there had to be a layoff and then rehire. >> the only thing that i would

add to that this is consistent with our past practice which is when a member moves into a new job, they start a new one-year contract and this is new jobs. and this practice was also specifically addressed by the administrative law judge and approved. >> i guess the difference is when that happens, it's usually because somebody is leaving one position not being laid off but for example, leaving an elementary and going to a middle school assistant principal and then of course the contract is essentially done because of that. but in this case, people being laid off and then, given an opportunity for a different job and that's affecting i guess compensation for them as well. >> i don't think it's affecting compensation commissioner

sanchez, it does affect their term of the contract. but as with the example these are new jobs with new job duties and members who were invited and did apply. so based on that, but you are right, we have not undergone this type of reorganization before. >> president bogus. >> i was wondering if you can address the situation regarding the miss classified employees who were noticed that they were going to be laid off and they corrected for us, saying we made a mistake. i guess i'm curious what safeguards were in place and how confident are we with all the other classifications that everyone is in the right spot and going to be treated appropriately as we move forward. >> yeah, so, i guess the

general answer to this is that, we have conducted layoffs in 2013 and there is nobody working in hr nobody, in leadership in hr that was in leadership in hr in 2013 so we're not count on institutional memory on how to do this. so we missed it, there was a projection to close some cantonese classrooms based on projected enrollment. so we listed in addition to listing multiple positions. and we failed to think about the fact when cantonese bilingual if they were to get laid off, it would put them in the consolidated pool with other teachers. so they have two, they have a

two credentials authorization right. luckily one of the union called us and we immediately called all of them and gave them access to the consolidation pool. but then realized that we don't need to layoff any of those people so all of them can stay in the classroom except two. and then we made agenciers we gave them options and they ended up being settled into places that they wanted to be. but it all worked out but hopefully this is not going to be happening to us every year, i'm hoping not. but if it does, we've got to make sure that we're looking at what underlying credentials is holding so see how that may affect their process. >> i appreciate it. it's the issue do we have strong systems. do we have strong way to audit the systems.

do we have a way for us to start fixing. it just feels that we don't have safeguards in place. we don't have people who are double. i don't know if that's true. but i think that's my feeling from here. how do we tafp these things before the public is aware that there is an issue. i don't know how we're gauging that, i would be really interesting in us having more information about that and figuring out what is the appropriate amount of staff. i have one additional comment as well. you spoke a little bit about the assessment of central office staff and where we're at in the process and how that is reflective of what you showed us here. i think the concern that i have

is, how are we gaminging the reductions we're making in central office staff and the amount of work that those people were responsible for delivering and bringing. i think i'm still interested in getting a gauge, understanding that we have to make reductions how are we decreasing the amount of work that is in individual areas with knees so we're not reducing work. reducing workers increasing work and seeing workout comes among our staff and students and how are we gauging that and balancing that. i think i'm really interested in how we're holding all of these different things together as we try to solve this problem. >> thank you for raising that. we don't want to reduce the number of employees and not reduce the amount of work and make the existing employees have more work, we definitely don't want to do that. this is a combination of phase 2 combined with focus on our

l.cap priority which is the l.cap is intended to help us figure out what are the priority and what are the things that we're going to have to not do. and i imagine we'll be engaged in a lot of conversations about this. >> i would add to that, there is a third way and when we were as a budget team was presenting to the board. couple of slides showed with some of the positions that were limited that would go away. we wanted this to be explicit. i think too often, reductions are made with the same amount of work, it's what you're bringing upright now. reductions but the same amount of money. the team wanted to be explicit about these positions which they have, this is the work that is going to be eliminated.

>> i appreciate it. i think and i'm definitely would love to have more conversation going in the future. is that we reduce staffing and work secretly ends up somewhere else whether it's at a site or filling the gap of what we reduced because the school communities are not prepared what they can do without. i don't know if there is a way to capture that. but i hear about all the volunteerism and additional work that it takes to maintain the status quo. and figuring out how we're calculating that into our cost so we have an accurate reflection to operate into what we need to do. thank you. >> commissioner alexander. >> thank you.

i know you've been juggling a lot of pieces to ensure that as many our employees can stay. when i talk about the upper management issue, and maybe this is not the time to go into depth i know some of it has to do with non cetials employees.

it would be appropriate. >> do you want it share anything now? the functional analysis. >> yes, some of the changes. >> well i guess what i was saying, i know that the phase one analysis that that's been done in the reductions are more than just a and again i would offer june budget and services that there may be a place that is appropriate. >> i would prefer to do it in a organized way as opposed. >> perfect, perfect. thank you.

>> hi i have a question on if we approve the layoff notices today of 4jrtc positions. is it true that we will not handout the notice until may 15th? just a question. >> we have to get them those notices by friday. the 15th is a sunday. >> so then what happens when the funding comes through? they have 39? months? to hire them back. >> so if we open a jrt position in two weeks, we would call the most senior person on the list of four and ask that person if they would like to come back and take that position. and if we create multiple positions we do that for all the people on the list. >> thank you.

so not to head down a totally different path but one of the when i was outside today hearing the cantonese bilingual teacher talk about the posting positions when they become available and i'm thinking about you know, enrollment for fall and things like that. so it's what is the process given that, you were not here when we've done this before. what is the process that anticipating as far as noticing when positions become available do they just get, do they just bubbled up? >> i guess i just want to understand the process since i heard that from several different folks who were impacted from what they thought were notices and seeing position that's were available. are you tracking what i'm asking. >> i'm not sure.

>> are you asking if, if folks on the rehire list have to monitor when positions? i wondered if that was it. we would reach out on the hire list and inform them and the most senior person and they have the right to it. >> i want to thank you for your work. bilingual educators and teachers, because i was very concerned when i started hearing directly from our teachers as well as, the emails that followed. i appreciate your response and the tone. i don't think i need to explain to the browder community just how much, anxiety frustration, that that caused and i hear you

hear about that we have not been through it and i want to echo what vice president bogus has expressed. it was about how do we create symptoms that go beyond the institutional history and the knowledge but how do systemize it. i look forward and if you have a response they call it, bogus called the safe guard. i'm looking for institutionalizing the systems so it goes beyond the, and how do we look at as we modernize this system so that it can be not an error that you end up having to really, you know, fix and then that creates i think a mistrust and so much of what we've been talkinging about as we move forward is that trust building and, i do think that we want to express the with the

multi lingual pathways and our bilingual program, there is a real question about where we're headed as a district with the pathway sxz programs. so i'm going to be looking forward with my colleagues to how we're serving our students, el as well as the long term support that we must have for our students and our staff that are with those students throughout their education. >> yeah, president lam, i went outside earlier to the valley at 4:30 i was hoping to have a chance to speak to the assembled group. i would like to publicly apologies to the group of 134 who were impacted by error and the wider population and community of cantonese bilingual educators, i know we

had an impact beyond the pks. in hr, we deeply deeply you saw on our charge, we deeply value our diversity in our educators, not only do chinese deserve to have chinese but all of our children deserve to have teachers of different back grounds. so deeply value our educators and i'm kind of, i'm here for a long hall kind of employee, been around for a long time. and i'll be around the next time we try to do this and we do it and learn from experience and do that accurately. i know that's not the system that you're asking for but while i don't have a system to offer up at the moment, i'm hoping that i'll be here and be able to use this knowledge in the future. >> thank you. >> commissioner shoe.

>> yes, to follow-up on that comment, is there a hand book for different procedures? >> not that i know of, i did go to hr school where there was a whole session on this topic, but they don't go into detailed information about cross checking your pks for that credentials. i relied so much on the legal department here to help us make sure that we don't make miss steps and on this one neither of us caught it. but if you all have, if you any anybody has suggestions, i agree with everything that you're saying. we don't want to make she's errors that we have to apologize for. we want to do it right. >> i'm wondering, for any position that we have whether

it's an hr or any other departments, how does anybody know how we do things here? i can say that yeah, you have an accountant who knows how to do accounting but when they come to us, we do accounting this way. that's what i mean with the handbook or u.s. fd handbook if we don't have one, maybe we'll consider drafting one. >> we have that, we know everybody's job description, i think in this case, we do this rarely enough luckily, that when there is not the institutional memory, that's an idea. >> maybe start now. >> and i would have other positions that we have you

heard the institutional knowledge. so that typically there are people around in other positions who when we on board, there are the knowledge of the position and procedures in this case as you heard it was 2013 but that's rarely, that's very rare. >> whether it's rare or not, i think just from my business world, when you have small companies, you rely on the people to do the work. when you have large companies you rely on the system to do the work. i think u.s. fd would be great to a large company. so if we don't have the systems in place, let's start building them. >> so let me very clear that we're talking, light now we're talking about layoffs totally agree. for layoffs absolutely.

but that's not true throughout the system. >> i understand but since we caught one place that is not there, let's start building that there. >> and i think it is a challenge, i mean we've had the payroll issue and a lot of systemic failures. i mean to be real. and i think i agree, i think i know i've known and i know one of the many strengths that you bring is the culture, i think the culture piece is very very important. how you respond to this is exemplar' and that's going to change culture and we need to lean on experts like commissioner shu, who may be able to help. that are more procedure right. like how we do layoffs, we ought to have checklist. that's what i would be interesting in supporting as well. >> we can commit to draft

checklist. >> and we'll have bogus have the closing comment. >> and i guess i think the goal is not to micromanage or dictate how staff does their staff just for me as board member how not to figure out to get caught by surprised and put staff in a place to be successful and if something is not working that way for us to have the ability to fix it before my email no longer operates. so i think just enough thank you. >> thank you for that closing comment. and we will have roll call vote please. >> thank you was this item moved? >> moved. >> second. >> it was. >> that's what i'm asking. i don't recall i missed it. okay.

tutu. commissioner alexander. >> yes. >> vice president bogus. >> yes. >> commissioner shu. >> yes. >> commissioner >> yes. >> commissioner sanchez. >> yes. >> dismissinger ward. >> yes. >> president. >> yes. >> 7 ayes. >> thank you. we are now heading into agenda k board members reports. >> concern. >> concerns, sorry this is what happens going into hour 6, nearly hour 6. so apologies we're now going to move back to agenda e consent

agenda, can i get a motion and a second. >> so moved. >> second. >> i will now open for public comment. members of the public may comment on any matter on the consent calendar. but members should not for discussion. seeing none, any items to be withdrawn or corrected by the superintendent? yes. we have one item corrected and that item is on the personnel report, we looked at christine klein as the hired by it's christine hardman. so it's just the name. >> which number. >> personnel report.

head of hr is ms. hartman certificated or classified. >> i'm sorry what what last name to what last name? >> >> it is the first page of the class tied, the certificated actions report. recommended appointments. okay seeing that corrected under item 8 personnel resolutions. any items removed for first reading by the board?

sorry, number 8, 10, 11, 21, 22. --31, 32. any items severed by the board or superintendent for discussion or vote tonight? >> i think that's what commissioner shu wanted to do. >> anybody else? >> did you have one? >> i think that's commissioner shu not for first reading but for discussion vote. >> so for claire figuration, 8, 10, 11, 3132 or severed by the board for discussion. vote tonight.

so at this time, i would like to call on roll call vote on the consent items minus for those five. >> commissioner alexander. >> yes. >> invite president bogus. >> yes. >> commissioner shu. >> yes. >> commissioner >> >> yes. >> shan sez. >> yes. ward >> yes. >> president lam. >> yes. >> 7 ayes. >> okay, commissioner shu on item number 8. yes item number 8 actually right under christine klein, that list is erika lingral and that online program assistant principal. i thought we were not having that anymore. and this is for the next year, this coming year july 1, 2022

to june 23. >> that is accurate that position was filled and it was not removed in error. >> so it should be removed? >> yes, that should be removed. >> yeah on 8 also i would like to have a discussion in closed session about the teacher from flynn if that's possible. >> the name and the teacher. >> sorry. >> christina flores. >> so the motion is to sever and move this item to closed session?

>> second if necessary. >> it is necessary and i would just caution board members that you did delegate this to the authority so this would be a deviation from your rules. >> so just for clarification on the severing of the what was brought up for by commissioner shu, is that accurate? superintendent? >> yes. the board decision yes. >> can i ask a question about that. in fairness to the person in question here. what happens then? >> we will work with her to find another position or to figure out what the next steps are, i don't know the answer to

that question at this point. >> thank you. are we done with 8. >> let's go to. >> one was to remover erica. >> you need a motion and a second for the severed item and then a roll call vote. >> we'll do them separately. >> sorry. >> the motion on the floor i believe commissioner alexander correct me if i'm wrong is to move to sever it from tonight's agenda and to move it into closed next at the next regular meeting. >> the whole thing number 8 or that one person. >> just that one person. >> that's correct. >> thank you.

>> who seconded it? >> i did, lisa. >> thank you. >> roll call please. >> roll call, commissioner. >> yes. >> commissioner rouge us. >> yes. >> commissioner shu. >> yes. >> commissioner. >> no. >> commissioner lam. >> no. >> commissioner sanchez. >> yes. >> commissioner ward. >> yes. >> 4 ayes. excuse me 5 ayes. >> item number 10. >> item 10 is the accept to accept privately donations. can i just ask is 10 and 11 ask

the c.f.o. perhaps to tell us how much private fund gifts we've received and how much grant money for number 11. you may not have that money right now but it would fall where we discussed last time of putting it in context in the last time, we talked contracts spending money, this is receiving money, i would like to get context on that. >> commissioner, to address your question, i want to highlight that this item is completed by deputy superintendent team. that is something that i can speak with ms. lighting about to see if we can prepare a comment format to provide that additional context. >> that would be great, thank you.

so that's 10 and 11. so i would like to roll call volt for 10 and 11 please. >> alexander. so having severed them from the consent report, we should do a roll call vote on them separately. >> thank you. >> yeah, that's what i was going to ask. we voted on the motion to several the individual not the item. >> i apologize commission, i thought it was a combined motion. you've recorded that motion as an approval to sever? >> correct. >> okay, so just to be clear, any board member can sever an item without a roll call vote, so i think the vote that we

want to take each item is approve after you've had discussion or to approve the recommendation or not. >> i just think it was not clear on the 8. what we thought we were voting on was severing that particular teacher and taking it to close session. i don't think we were voting on the rest of 8. so we just severed that and send it to closed session but 8 as a whole has not been approved by the board, i think. >> so back to approve 8, >> can i ask a question procedurally, we're moving to approve it as modified. >> roll call. >> alexander. >> yes. >> vice president. >> yes. >> commissioner shu. >> yes.

>> commissioner mabani. >> yes. >> president lam. >> yes. >> commissioner sanchez. >> yes. >> commissioner wiseman ward. >> yes. >> 7 ayes, as modified. >> so we'll take individual votes for item number 10 roll call. >> commissioner alexander. >> yes. >> vice president. >> yes. >> commissioner shu. >> yes. >> commissioner momdi. >> yes. >> president lamb. >> yes >> commissioner sanchez. >> yes. >> commissioner wiseman ward. >> yes. >> that's 7 ayes. >> roll call for consent item number 11. >> thank you for 11. >> a alexander >> >> yes. >> yes. >> commissioner shu. >> yes. >> commissioner >> yes. >> president lam. >> yes. >> commissioner sanchez. >> yes.

>> commissioner wiseman ward. >> yes. >> 7 ayes. >> item #31, mission--discussion. item number 31 let me get there. 31 and 32 actually are connected and maybe it's chief nathan, they're both contracts and one has a 32 shows that total percentage of modification amount to the original contract. but 31 does not. and is it because 31 the

modification is why so drastically? commissioner you can give me a minute so i can log in and look at the item and see if i remember this one. >> 31 amount of 22,000 and modification of 275,000 where as 32 has original contract of roughly 29,000 with modification of, you know, sorry, 29 million, sorry. modification of 1.5 million with a 5%. modification. >> commissioners i'm concern to

provide insufficient. but several types of services that we have at the district are basically, and in this case i'm looking at the consultant program and it's an industrial hygienist. so it's not that, you can look at a specific contract and say that project is over budget, it is we are employing them across many different projects as we deliver them to come back and provide services, you know over and over again within a specific project. but on a kind job basis i would call it. and for that reason, looking at it from a change order perspective does not apply for inspection services or an industrial hygienist.

>> and presented as which is the present as the other project base. so it's just a little confusing, maybe there is a different way that it can be presented. >> commissioner, we are in agreement with you. it's been a longstanding thing for about a few months as we've tried to figure out how to treat these non designed related professional services contracts in a way that is distinct from design and construction that is more visible. it's going to take some undoing and in the meantime, probably what will happen as we create new pools for the next bond, that is when you see it cleaned up. right now because of the base contract that we use to establish the services, it's going to look like this for a little bit longer. >> okay.

let's do, commissioner shu did you address 31 and 32. roll call vote please. >> commissioner alexander >> yes. >> vice president. >> yes. >> is this for 31? >> yes, it is. >> commissioner shu. >> yes. >> commissioner president lam. >> yes. >> commissioner sanchez. >> yes. >> commissioner -- ~>> yes. >> 7 aye. . >> item number 32 please. >> thank you. okay. commissioner alexander. vice president bogus, alexander. >> yes. >> vice president bogus. >> yes. >> commissioner shu. >> yes. >> commissioner metabani. >> yes. >> president lam.

>> yes. >> commissioner chan sez. >> yes. >> wiseman ward. >> yes. >> thank you, moving to item f retroactive contracts consent calendar. do i have a motion and second. >> so moved. >> second. >> members of the public may provide public comment so open up for public comment. seeing none, any items withdrawn or corrected by the superintendent? any items severed by the board or superintendent for discussion or vote tonight? seeing none, roll call on retroactive. >> i have a comment, why are there so many retroactive contracts this time than the last time when we were the

impression that this section would decrease overtime? >> it's a matter of timing. so the reason for the retroactive are not different than what we explained to you before, it was more of a matter of getting leaders and administrative team to get them in by a time lehmaner. so we do expect to see a decrease and lead. i'm not going to proof anymore retros but they're working hard to get them all and get them done and make sure that they understand. i anticipate a decrease in the board meetings. >> thank you. >> loll call vote please. >> commissioner alexander. >> yes. >> vice president. >> yes. >> commissioner shu. >> yes. >> commissioner. >> yes. >> commissioner sanchez. >> yes. >> commissioner wiseman ward. >> yes.

>> president lam. >> yes. >> 7 ayes. that brings us to. this brings us to agenda item k, board members report, i would like to start with ad hoc committee assignment chair bogus. >> thank you. we had a committee meeting it went well, we talked about the possibility of expanding the timeline for the school assignment process, that si decision that is left up to superintendent and his team. but i think we as the board are looking how we can push and redirect that process and help adjust based on where we're at currently. i believe there is another meeting that is set that i'm

not remembering the date of now. but i do believe that will be available on the website shortly. >> thank you. >> thank you. we had a series of special meeting in closed session on saturday april 30th. saturday april 30th may first, thursday may 5 and the close session item was the public employee appointment. and to review the board met to review applications for position of the superintendent of schools. and just last night, we had augment committee. >> we did. >> thank you. we had three informational items all of which will be coming back to the board in one fashion or another. the virtual academy that the board voted on several weeks ago, i think is going to come back. i think commissioner alexander is going to work with board

leadership to see if it can come back to the board for another discussion at a regular board meeting. so more on that later. and the new project and literacy update proposal for 2022, 2023 school year were presented as well by staff and for the public, if you would like to visit them, please do. okay, bhoerd delicate to organization. other reports by board members? seeing none, and at this time, just to announce any upcoming committee meetings, i would like to ask our chairs. >> so budget and resources is scheduled for tomorrow. so you didn't miss it if you

thought you miss it. . we're going to talk about the l cap and talking about how student outcomes are going on those goals. so you cannot come, there will still be some good materials that i anticipate to check out. >> and next wednesday, may 18th is the rules committee meeting and on the agenda is review of legislative priorities. and several action items are on board policies that have been referred from this body to rules. and we will get an update also on the community schools partnership program from the state. and we're working towards the best practice of posting our materials and agenda in advance. so hopefully you will see that

post tomorrow or thursday and i encourage the -- ~>> and then we also have done, i took a note from budget and business services and internally we have clocked times for each agenda item which has been working well with budget and business services so. >> the blz and grounds committee meeting will be may 23 which is the day before our next board meeting i'll announce it today. on the agenda will be the bond update and real estate update, that tells us what we all, what we own, other things that we own and what we do with it. so and then a mission bay presentation.

>> thank you. >> and on thursday, we have ad hoc committee on labor relations and affordability and we'll get an update from hr and kristen that's at 5:30. now moving into item l other informational items. i want to note we have informational items listed. i do want to acknowledge that we have public comment for l.3 mr. rox bridge way. >> do i do it now. >> yes. there is no present ace. go ahead and provide public comment. >> l-3 because spark and it was a presentation but it does not matter.

my public comment on spark relative to their own report that they said that they gave the african-american achievement 611,000 over 3 years. and they gave the donations that came in from corporate donors that 1.4 million dollars went to the 20 pitch schools over three years. this is the same entity that received on average 15 million dollars. over the last three years, they received over 45 million dollars so i look at the test scores read at grade level, 19%, just look at the schools. and i'm thinking how can an entity like sparks, 67 million dollars i know this because i pulled the tax returns, that's public. you can pull that and see that for yourself. how can an entity bring all of

that money 67 millions but only throw some chum change over to the african-american. the bottom line is the pitch schools and their test scores are terrible. anybody want to comment? i would love to find out what is going on, thank you. >> thank you, so tonight moving into item m memorial adjournment. there is none. item n, closed session. at this time before this board calls foreclosed session, i call for any speakers to list

the speakers. total of five minutes for speakers. i see one hand. sylvia go ahead please. go ahead please. >> speaker: hi this is sylvia. we cannot hear you, are you able to turn up the volume on your phone a little bit? >> speaker: can you hear me now. >> it's far away. >> speaker: oh i'm sorry, i'll get closer. is this okay. >> much better thank you. >> speaker: i actually wanted to comment on the spark annual report that you had. >> i'm sorry, we've moved on from that item. >> speaker: i'm sorry, i raised my hand. okay, thanks, i know it's a

late night, thank you. >> thank you. let's let sylvia give her comment. are you still there. >> go ahead please. >> okay, if you can hear me clearly. i wanted to say a few words. i'm a founding board member of sparks. and i appreciate that you have a very full evening but i wanted to take a brief moment to put some context on sparks. we're a nonprofit, that is is supporting organization and it has a board of nine community members like myself and four ex oficio and raised private funds for the priority, the district's mission and what we find is very inspiring vision

2025. sparks does not run any program, we help by opening doors to major donors and philanthrophic institutions and help by building long term relationships and trust in the public schools. so having an independent audit of the public fund for their race and ensuring that timely and meaningful reports are made help build that trust. over it's 7 years of existence, sparks has grown and raised 98 million dollars for priorities that you know well, including the african achievement and leadership initiative and work place and career readiness work to prepare students for high school and beyond which benefit all students. and in addition, i've seen how having an entity such as sparks has helped the district to be

nimble in raising funds to respond to unexpected student needs during the pandemic. particularly for 48,000 laptops and 7.2 million meals. i know that other districts look with some envy over what san francisco schools are able to do because it has a supporting organization. to close, i speak on behalf of the other board members when i say that it really is an honor to be part of sparks and to be able to partner closely with the talented staff. >> thank you. >> speaker: thank you. >> that concludes public comment for this item. >> okay, so the board will now go into closed session and call recess of the regular board meeting.

>> by the time the last show came, i was like whoa, whoa, whoa. i came in kicking and screaming and left out dancing. [♪♪♪] >> hello, friends. i'm the deputy superintendent of instruction at san francisco unified school district, but you can call me miss vickie.

what you see over the next hour has been created and planned by our san francisco teachers for our students. >> our premise came about for san francisco families that didn't have access to technology, and that's primarily children preschool to second grade. >> when we started doing this distance learning, everything was geared for third grade and up, and we work with the little once, and it's like how were they still processing the information? how were they supposed to keep learning? >> i thought about reaching the student who didn't have internet, who didn't have computers, and i wanted them to be able to see me on the t.v. and at least get some connection with my kids that

way. >> thank you, friends. see you next time. >> hi, friend. >> today's tuesday, april 28, 2020. it's me, teacher sharon, and i'm back again. >> i got an e-mail saying that i had an opportunity to be on a show. i'm, like, what? >> i actually got an e-mail from the early education department, saying they were saying of doing a t.v. show, and i was selected to be one of the people on it, if i was interested. i was scared, nervous. i don't like public speaking and all the above. but it worked out. >> talk into a camera, waiting for a response, pretending that oh, yeah, i hear you, it's so

very weird. i'm used to having a classroom with 17 students sitting in front of me, where they're all moving around and having to have them, like, oh, sit down, oh, can you hear them? let's listen. >> hi guys. >> i kind of have stage flight when i'm on t.v. because i'm normally quiet? >> she's never quiet. >> no, i'm not quiet. >> my sister was, like, i saw you on t.v. my teacher was, i saw you on youtube. it was exciting, how the community started watching. >> it was a lot of fun. it also pushed me outside of my comfort zone, having to make my own visuals and lesson plans so

quickly that ended up being a lot of fun. >> i want to end today with a thank you. thank you for spending time with us. it was a great pleasure, and see you all in the fall. >> i'm so happy to see you today. today is the last day of the school year, yea! >> it really helped me in my teaching. i'm excited to go back teaching my kids, yeah. >> we received a lot of amazing feedback from kiddos, who have seen their own personal teacher on television. >> when we would watch as a family, my younger son, kai, especially during the filipino episodes, like, wow, like, i'm proud to be a filipino. >> being able to connect with someone they know on television has been really, really

powerful for them. and as a mom, i can tell you that's so important. the social confidence development of our early learners. [♪♪♪]

>> restaurants will be open for take out only, but nonessential stores, like bars and gyms, will close effective midnight tonight. [♪♪♪] >> my name is sharky laguana. i am a small business owner. i own a company called vandigo van rentals. it rents vans to the music industry. i am also a member of the small business commission as appointed by mayor breed in 2019. i am a musician and have worked as a professional musician and

recording artist in the 90s. [♪♪♪] >> we came up in san francisco, so i've played at most of the live venues as a performer, and, of course, i've seen hundreds of shows over the years, and i care very, very deeply about live entertainment. in fact, when i joined the commission, i said that i was going to make a particular effort to pay attention to the arts and entertainment and make sure that those small businesses receive the level of attention that i think they deserve. >> this is a constantly and rapidly changing situation, and we are working hard to be aggressive to flatten the curve to disrupt the spread of covid-19. >> when the pandemic hit, it was crystal clear to me that

this was devastating to the music industry because live venues had to completely shutdown. there was no way for them to open for even a single day or in limited capacity. that hit me emotionally as an artist and hit me professionally, as well as a small business that caters to artists, so i was very deeply concerned about what the city could do to help the entertainment committee. we knew we needed somebody to introduce some kind of legislation to get the ball rolling, and so we just started texting supervisor haney, just harassing him, saying we need to do something, we need to do something. he said i know we need to do something, but what do we do? we eventually settled on this idea that there would be an independent venue recovery fund. >> clerk: there are 11 ayes.

>> president walton: thank you. without objection, this resolution is passed unanimously. >> and we were concerned for these small mom-and-pop businesses that contribute so much to our arts community. >> we are an extremely small venue that has the capacity to do extremely small shows. most of our staff has been working for us for over ten years. there's very little turnover in the staff, so it felt like family. sharky with the small business commission was crucial in pestering supervisor haney and others to really keep our industry top of mind. we closed down on march 13 of 2020 when we heard that there was an order to do so by the

mayor, and we had to call that show in the middle of the night. they were in the middle of their sound check, and i had to call the venue and say, we need to cancel the show tonight. >> the fund is for our live music and entertainment venues, and in its first round, it will offer grants of at least $10,000 to qualifying venues. these are venues that offer a signature amount of live entertainment programming before the pandemic and are committed to reopening and offering live entertainment spaces after the pandemic. >> it's going to, you know, just stave off the bleeding for a moment. it's the city contributing to helping make sure these venues

are around, to continue to be part of the economic recovery for our city. >> when you think about the venues for events in the city, we're talking about all of them. some have been able to come back adaptively over the last year and have been able to be shape shifters in this pandemic, and that's exciting to see, but i'm really looking forward to the day when events and venues can reopen and help drive the recovery here in san francisco. >> they have done a study that says for every dollar of ticket sales done in this city, $12 goes to neighboring businesses. from all of our vendors to the restaurants that are next to our ven sues and just so many other things that you can think of, all of which have been so negatively affected by covid. for this industry to fail is unthinkable on so many levels.

it's unheard of, like, san francisco without its music scene would be a terribly dismal place. >> i don't know that this needs to be arrest -- that there needs to be art welfare for artists. we just need to live and pay for our food, and things will take care of themselves. i think that that's not the given situation. what san francisco could do that they don't seem to do very much is really do something to support these clubs and venues that have all of these different artists performing in them. actually, i think precovid, it was, you know, don't have a warehouse party and don't do a gig. don't go outside, and don't do this. there was a lot of don't, don't, don't, and after the pandemic, they realized we're a big industry, and we bring a

lot of money into this city, so they need to encourage and hope these venues. and then, you know, as far as people like me, it would be nice if you didn't only get encouraged for only singing opera or playing violin. [♪♪♪] >> entertainment is a huge part of what is going to make this city bounce back, and we're going to need to have live music coming back, and comedy, and drag shows and everything under the sun that is fun and creative in order to get smiles back on our faces and in order to get the city moving again. [♪♪♪] >> venues serve a really vital function in society. there aren't many places where people from any walk of life,

race, religion, sexuality can come together in the same room and experience joy, right? experience love, experience anything that what makes us human, community, our connective tissues between different souls. if we were to lose this, lose this situation, you're going to lose this very vital piece of society, and just coming out of the pandemic, you know, it's going to help us recover socially? well, yeah, because we need to be in the same room with a bunch of people, and then help people across the country recover financially. >> san francisco art recovery fund, amazing. it opened yesterday on april 21. applications are open through may 5. we're encouraging everyone in the coalition to apply. there's very clear information on what's eligible, but that's

basically been what our coalition has been advocating for from the beginning. you know, everyone's been supportive, and they've all been hugely integral to this program getting off the ground. you know, we found our champion with supervisor matt haney from district six who introduced this legislation and pushed this into law. mayor breed dedicated $1.5 million this fund, and then supervisor haney matched that, so there's $3 million in this fund. this is a huge moment for our coalition. it's what we've been fighting for all along. >> one of the challenges of our business is staying on top of all the opportunities as they come back. at the office of oewd, office of economic and workforce development, if you need to speak to somebody, you can find people who can help you navigate any of the available programs and resources.

>> a lot of blind optimism has kept us afloat, you know, and there's been a lot of reason for despair, but this is what keeps me in the business, and this is what keeps me fighting, you know, and continuing to advocate, is that we need this and this is part of our life's blood as much as oxygen and food is. don't lose heart. look at there for all the various grants that are available to you. some of them might be very slow to unrao, and it might seem like too -- unroll, and it might seem like it's too late, but people are going to fight to keep their beloved venues open, and as a band, you're going to be okay. [♪♪♪] tuesday may third of

businesses street space and -- also the into the roadway. which creates a problem when have you ride hail drivers that don't know how to pullover and use the middle of the street. there is no place to pullover because of the red cones that are blocking the roadway. >> particularly i want to shout out great northern on utah street. and -- 1015 fol symptom there are the 2 place where is it is ridiculous and 1015 fol symptom the security guards harass youeen if you are helpful a block away. we have to being visible as taxis. ando temple night club is the worse.
