commissioner boggess and commissioner alexander? >> commissioner boggess: thank you. i think my question was in similar line of the last commissioner. just really curious to kind of like what does it take to meet the commitments of equity and diversity within the parent advisory council. also just kind of how does the parent advisory council exist in the realm all the other parent advisory council that are focused on specific communities. and balancing kind of having the title of parent solely in that regard. even though there are other groups that equally represent parents and how is that something that you all grapple with and deal with and kind of the strategies you're planning to take. >> thank you commissioner boggess. the parent advisory council was form through a resolution by the board of ed. i think it was 2007, maybe 2005. certainly the name existed prior to myself coming on as either a parent member years ago or as a coordinator now. i do recall when i served on the p.a.c., we did sort of hustle with that and consider changing it to family advisory council.

commissioner -- boggess. >> commissioner boggess: i don't think i heard the full 23 demand. i was wondering for someone who can read those. if i can have those shared with me to make sure we publicly acknowledged it. i seen a smaller number of demand. one thing i'm interested in, really about the implementation of this and essentially kind of what is a plan for this to kind of be successfully implemented. i see in my experience on the community side advocating that the district historically histoi will be interested to see highway we can ensure that the resolution includes the implementation plan and everything included in it. additionally for me, i really wanted to talk about not just about the admissions at lowell, i want to talk about access to the courses that are offered at lowell. how we can expand and offer those to all the students in the district. that's my biggest priority. how do we make sure every student who wants access to a class that's offered at a school like sota or lowell has access to that. these are my comments. >> president lopez: i know we have dr. inv

i appreciate those comments from commissioner boggess. i don't agree with all of them but i appreciate it. since we are historically systematically and structurally under resourced, we can name our schools after a concept of peace and love and not live up to that concept either. so, i do appreciate we naming schools after more women. only 10% of our schools are named after women so i would be really happy to have something like michelle obama grace one of our schools with their name or ruth bader ginsburg, for example. not putting ideas out there but i'm just saying. so, i'm definitely for some names. i appreciate elected officials maybe not but i definitely think that we should be looking at names of people that are heroes and sheroes. we just renamed fairmont a and a half ago after dalores fuerta and i'm proud of that. i do think there's legitimate questions in the community and i'd like to hear a little bit more from the committee around the work done around diane feinstine. i know you've mentioned it in the past so maybe you can reite

commissioner boggess and commissioner lam class i am curious as far as what is the cost associated with doing this and what other fiscal impacts bothshort-term and long-term, with this . >> sure. so what are anticipating approximately $120,000 and we would be a interests of about 2000, so around 320,000 was the ballpark. by receiving the funds and actually holding them in our account although we will be using it to pay our bills and so the balance may not be so great. we do still anticipate having interest earnings. our funds are held in the city's treasury and it's not unusual for our school district or for other school districts to issue tran for cash flow. this has as a tool is very commonly used and at times can actually generate interest earnings in excess of the cost of issuance. i'm not anticipating this is going to happen this year but it should offset the cost. so i'm really hoping that this won't lead to any fiscal impact to us at all. i'll say it is a burden on my time and on my staff's time so it would have been nice to not have sponsored this but it's something we've been a

i would love maybe commissioner boggess to talk about families that are experiencing housing insecurityich makes it harder for folks to have a desktop computer. those types of things. i love to be involved in hearing how we can -- support those families more. thank you. >> president lopez: i want to recognize juan garcia. i don't know if you want to add anything. [speaking spanish] >> for me it's been 23 years working with migrant families with migrant programs. it has been a passion. it's not a job. i do the best i can but sometimes it's very hard to find services for families. i really appreciate this space for us. thank you everyone. >> commissioner lam: thank you to students and family for presenting. one thing i want to ask or lift up, based upon vice president collins comment about the progress that we make. i'm interested in the community partnership piece. the team here is really thinking about what are the resources in the community, how can we leverage them and bringing them resources to families. it will be helpful as we do this tracking piece to be clear about what are those

. >> commissioner boggess and then commissioner lam. >> commissioner lam. >> i have lots of questions. lots of overall statements. first and foremost i want to thank everyone working towards our return to in person learning and educators and district staff and this is really the paramount issue of our time here and what the pandemic has brought and what opportunities play before us with education and the necessary creativity flexibility and consistency we know our students are counting on us every day for this and i think our educators and staff for all that support in our families and parents. with that, i just want to name how important it is to me that we are working towards with our labor partners the details are being worked out right now. i also want to express how critical it is to accelerate how we're returning students in our educators safely. and that the plan right now i do agree that we need to get that survey data sooner than later and in a couple weeks i would propose even sooner. that will allow us to have the information we need in order to make certain decisions and f
