seeing none oh, commissioner maufas okay. i think that one thing it stands out when we look at the plan one and we look at on page 7 and we looked at it broken down by race i feel there's something i don't know what it is but i feel some of this is missing it would giving me a good at some point whether or not they are offering more or less opportunity through our graduation is the gpa or the grades i feel like we i've seen indicate i gave us that showed us a large number of students that passed with a d or better this is the achievement gap and tha that type of data is pretty interesting to find out where we're in the gap if we are doing all this to close the gap and give more opportunity for a there g will give important access but help us to close the gap to fully understand the gap if you're african-american students or latino or chinese students or weather white students if they all graduate with a majority of d that's not giving nor opportunity but closing the door to opportunity because why a there g you won't be able

i have a couple of questions to clarify so and commissioner maufas brought this up what exactly with the breakdown if every gateway eight grader were to go to ninth grade i know that's your hope but if they made the choose you how many spaces for non-gateway middle school students ways the percentage i know that commissioner maufas said 50 percent. >> absolutely so the we have one hundred students in our eight grade and one hundred and 70 if the ninth grade in pooling our families not all our eight graders will choose our high school and we really do help our students see lots of choices we encourage them to visit the high schools we think that choosing should be about choice and they're lots of things that gateway didn't offer that the schools don't we think it will be closer to 70 or 80 percent students coming so that leaves a gap. >> you know i came into the curriculum committee meeting with a lot of questions and undecided i wanted to commend all the families and students it was really the stories that we've heard about how important this is to the families and to the students at

. >> commissioner maufas. >> thank you commissioner maufas i've been working through lots of different thoughts regarding one purpose and commissioner wynns opened up her comments i was looking at the map and thinking about little the schools in the midst where i live and i walk quite a bit and take transportation i think about those schools when i see parents rushing to get to schools in the morning if i see them getting on or off the metropolitan what a their designation i'm curled up the hustle and bustle in the mission being a resident there before i i lived in the bayview so i watched parents and children going to school school was where are they getting to you love seeing families getting off to school and try to envision with one purpose looks like not that i don't think that you all will do something interesting in sfusd as a part of our school system i don't think that's not the issue the issues we have lots of schools that are doing really interesting thing they're just getting there and first names b are going there now i think that that turn that i've seen in my time living

. >> if i may commissioner maufas it's the a there g and plan 2, 3, 45 your describing who is in the cohorts but a plan that word plan actually has an indication there's a plan for the students that is what we do know your explanation was telling us who was in the cohort but you did not tell us i'm not hoping you can what's the plan what was the plan for those students so if you say that plan 3 is foster skewer or whatever it was so what is i'm looking at this it says that foreign-born students plan 215 years old and what's the plan for foreign-born children foster children entering in the second why were and what's plan 3 for foster constitutes transferring students in county school what's the plan in county schools and students if continuation that's the skew that commissioner maufas is asking you had the same question i can see who the cohorts are how are the plans different from plan 1 the a through g. >> commissioners, thank you for the questions if i could preschoolly have the presentation it's a summary the graduation so we could finish with the summary of the graduation data

. >> commissioner maufas. >> thank you. i appreciate my colleagues comments i'm still on in questioning mode but more i guess along the lines of commissioner mendoza-mcdonnell brought up what's itself vicinity of doing something like that and i'll talk to our president and superintendent doing something separate isn't there a print deadline so whatever documents i think still have to be meeting the deadlines so i'm still wondering the viability of that so if you could start with that. >> we need to as i said we need to have them before the fair and we can't print a map if we don't know which schools are going to feed into the middle school and we have a workshop for willie brown there i go to be holding a workshop and having their own room to run personalities through activities that they're to be highlighting at the school and we have a dedicated page so we have things in motion roadway there are some things we don't make the decision we'll expecting everything to be status quo and we'll go to print we could strategize on
