to be a great school. that's what they want. they want to be able to walk their child down the street and say this is a great school. and so as a look at the work we do together, it's important for us to collaborate and to learn from one another and respect and honor parents choice and so forth and so on. but also recognizing the need that exists for the public school. an example, i want to share on a collaboration is, i'm sitting next to diane tavenner, and lindsay, charter school, and lindsay and somewhat learning have a strong partnership, a good collaborative partnership where we are working together to develop the educator and the leader in workforce. so in a person are customized learning system, that is learner centered we are defining what to look for the adults, person from new york you shared the capacity building. this tool would be available to everybody as we tested and refined and available to anybody nationwide but it's essential partnership between a public school and a charter school that

or have them transferred to another school in the interim spend but we have to observe the school law as a process we're required to follow through because that's when it takes a great deal of time cleaning up what says the was done in the bigots or lied. oscars former school is part of the schools without racism network at least eighty percent of teachers parents and students sign a statement opposing racism and discrimination. there are interfaith workshops and seminars to promote understanding and tolerance. but oscar was still bullied and attacked because he is jewish. it is think about this had what i could have done better is to tell the parents very clearly that if their son continued to attend our school then the students involved in these incidents. not be there in the at least for the time being. to restore peace to the school samantha classroom instruction for i can suspend them from lessons so that at least until the situation is clarified that would have been an option but since the issue was one of overall safety that wasn't enough i think is the do over to quit school c

in 1879, the first indian school named carlisle indian school was created. at this time, indian school was for the purpose of getting rid of indian people. in 1924, indian citizenship act happened, the first time that american-indians were considered citizens. in 1968, indians civil rights act happened. in 1972, the title 7 indian education act. 1975, the indian self-determination act. 1978, the american-indian religious freedom act. and in 1991, a report was created to state that indian education was at risk at that time. >> for 2017 highlight and successes. i wanted to -- there's quite a few on the list, but i wanted to shout out a couple that really is new to our program so i will just say them. new multimedia dene library. student representatives american-indian cultural center board of directors. just so you know, it's raziel. so congratulations to him.

-12 and we have eight schools, one high school, one middle school, to intermediate schools and four elementary schools. our free and reduced lunch population is about 38%. our expenditure in north carolina is $7500. student. in north carolina's 115 school districts, that places the school district about 100 out of 115. what we've been able to do and kind of what put more so on the map is what we call our digital conversion. the digital conversion, we are 1 - 1 with k-12, with ipads and kindergarten and first grade on laptop computers in second grade through 12th grade. we started our journey about a decade ago and 2007. one of the biggest reasons behind our digital conversion was we wanted to close the digital divide that existed between our students, those with means and those who did not have economic means to have access to technology. what you'll hear throughout the course of my presentation is very similar, there was a disconnect between our students and what they were learning in education and in our schools. it's almost like our kids had to powerdown when they stepped onto the school gr

programs and school events. it's important to raise these issues again, particularly since the conversation about student assignment has started for the year with the ad hoc committee meetings on this topic. these two systems are intricately linked in identifying problems to solve with one requires consideration of the other. additionally, we shared considerations and ideas that pac heard from the community which we brought before the board and district leaders last february regarding transportation, urging actions to address the limited transportation options for family living on treasure island and its impact on school choice, truancy, student and family participation in after school programs, activities and school events. we also want to urge the actions to consider creating central pick up and drop off zones that align with existing sf -- with existing district school bus routes to maximize service and increase ridership, particularly for families living on treasure island. we want to work with the city offi

wells high school. we recently were able to create a gym and curriculum that has changed perceptions of p.e. for their students. i'm a student of sfusd. i now have a masters in kinesiology, which is the study of human movement and fitness. i am up to date in all the research and legal battles when it comes to p.e. and especially of this district. kids that are physically inactive as youth will likely be as adults. physical inactivity leads to high blood pressure, obesity, high cholesterol, certain cancers, cardiovascular diseases. recently obesity among youth has doubled. some of this generation will not out live their parents due to physical inactivity, and physical inactivity has resulted in knocking off at least 20 from people's life. we get a memo from the high school lead office on december 20, 2017 addressing the latest board policy changes for p.e. behind every p.e. teachers' back. here's from highlights. students 16 years aold with tw years of high school can exempt p.e. this means all the work

in an unsafe school or stuck in a fiscally-mismanaged school or stuck in a socially-engineered school that undermines their values, then they need an exit tool so that they will have a choice in the school and the type of education that's provided to their children. and all these reasons have nothing to do directly anyway with test scores and academics. these are all about issues that involve, you know, values, culture, you know? all those things that, you know, we hear on some of our favorite radio shows, right? and yet that's what's happening in the classroom. and those are reason enough for parents to have that choice, you know, and to be able to leave a school that is undermining them as parents, that's undermining their values, that's undermining their children's future as thinking adults. so whether the choice tool is a charter school or an education savings account as nevada and arizona have implemented, a tax credit for private school tuition or some other type of school choice mechanism, parents have to have the ability to access the type of education that best suits the need

in public schools or at all weathers charter schools or traditional public schools it's all pretty much synergy on training the future workforce which may or may not exist and business has always been involved in education and that they want . for instance or the hope personalized learning movement that's going on now with the tech so you have i pads in schools you have online learning. so what's going on is the surveillance state the military industrial complex the commercialization of the internet all of this is getting wrapped in twine together so you have these in tech companies that are interested not only in sewing their products schools but also their interest in arresting what these kids are doing on month so if you have a high school kid and they're doing an assignment for their english class chances are they're also looking up things on amazon no shoes dresses whatever it may be and that data is collected. after a shot of mother russia india was heckled harassed and abused practically every week for hundreds of weeks all because he and his eighty four year old neighbor had dec

this is the george high school. mendelson high school with the principal every error about eight or nine jewish students transferred here from other berlin schools because they were being bullied they were the targets of anti-semitism or they were being beaten up when the parents no longer feel like their children are safe so they come here to this george school instead and that's not what we ultimately want to censor creates a kind of get older stuff to mind so i thought that in the twenty first century a job can freely attend any school but it seems that's not the case that. nearly all jewish institutions in germany from schools to synagogues are under police protection it's a reminder that day to day jewish life here is anything but ordinary. germany has gone to great lengths to confront its dark past across perlin testified to the fate of the six million european jews who were persecuted and killed under the nazi regime. the memorial to the murdered jews of europe is motivated near the german parliament in the c

it's the hub, not only for the academic school program that supports k-12 and their needs after school, but it is the family center space. it is the cultural night. it is professional development. it is a safe space in this city, a city that has no space for anyone. and yet our children make their way from all the schools to spend time together. to be supported. to know more than words. there's genuine care. we're a family. we're relatives. we're healing with each other and that space allows us to do so. in terms of the space allowing the program to expand, four years ago there was no space. four years ago, we were being asked to make a difference in the outcomes of our children. the graduation rate and the dropout rates. we were not able to make as deep of an impact as we are now because we have the center. >> and i just wanted to give some testimony to your comment or question, my son, marciano, who is in the audience, and he often gets the calendar of the month, places it on the refrigerator and that's his go-to spot. what is going on today? i'm there. yesterday as we were sitting t

school, private school, than public school. so -- and again, with this opportunity -- that's why i said we fought very hard to open this window for part-time, part-time. because they are challenged now. they're forced to some extent to have to maneuver. it's almost like negotiation. i hate to say it. but the pressure is real. and you kind of want that going in to see how you can partner as opposed to reaching in and forcing them. let the families show them, and then they will follow. >> i would just say, you know, i'm of the belief that, you know, we've raised money for education so the child can be educated. we don't raise money for schools. i think it would be crazy if we had every, you know, higher education scholarship went to a particular school and you had to go to that school or you would lose it. so the way we organize education could definitely change. and i think the way that public schools respond to choice is something that's very interesting. in arizona, for instance, my former colleague, he found some data that be

high schools, all of those schools closed because of this ongoing situation. gives us an indication this won't be closed any time soon. police did share this picture on social media. map of the red zone, an area where police are asking people to shelter in place. encouraging them not to leave their homes, affected areas, prospect avenue, prospect court, eden shire, hampshire roads, gloucester township police say it is actively trying to d de escalate the situation going on nearly ten hours, police say they responds today yorkshire and hampshire roads for the report of shots fired last night just after 8:00 p.m. upon arrival, the person inside of a home in the brittany woods neighborhood refused to surrender to police. investigators tell us the gunman fired several shots at police officers and at an armored vehicle packed with officers. fortunately, no one was hurt. and chief earl tells us, officers did not return gunfire. police have not said if anyone else may be inside the home. but here are a few words from the chief himself. >> this is an ongoing fluid sit

, not true. 76%% of the schools were working with our traditional district schools, and they are in all parts of the country, urban, suburban, rural, and represent every configuration of school that i've ever seen and some that i've never seen and been really educated about the way schools can be designed and configured. they are very diverse across the board, and are really an inspiring group of representative schools. what we have at the core of a partnership and what brings us all together is this ideas summit learning. at the heart of some learning is this personalization, an approach to teaching and learning that really sees each child as an individual, as an individual human being that deserves and needs personalization in order to reach their own goals. we have been very, very fortunate to work with leading learning scientists and researchers from across the country in the development and design of the model. this is multiple years in the making with lots of relationships, and so i think one of the things we're most proud of is that when schools were designed 100 plus years ago w

we celebrate our school counsellors for their unique contributions to schools. school counsellors help prepare our graduates to live, thrive and succeed. they help with them with career, social, emotional development. counsellors collaborate with teachers and other educators to explore their potential and develop the skills, capacities and dispositions from the 21st century success. they collaborate with caregivers to focus on the educational and social growth of their children. school councillors identify and utilize community resources that can enhance and complement programs and give students a sense of purpose and sense of self. it's considered an integral part of quality instruction and equitable support that enable all students to achieve success in school. i would like to thank all of our district's hardworking counsellors and i look forward to celebrating your work during school counsellor week from february 5-9.

for our school. as a principal my greater job is retaining quality teachers. i'm going to let you read the rest of this, but this is key. these teachers are our community. as i heard you ask how many streets don't have street cleaning, a number of them. in the zone, these are the ones without it. they are flat streets as well as ones with hills. it -- prospect and winfield do not. mirabel does not. industries streets need street cleaning and enforcement. >> thank you. thank you next speaker, please. >> clerk: nicky vanderwallen. is nicky here? no? okay. is desna lurotic here? is nick miliotis here? >> yes. >> is linda kitlitz here? >> hi. thank you. i wanted to say -- change what i was going to say and address something mr. wilson said and that gary mentioned, and that is the big orange line and how the process of this rpp was implemented with the petition and all. and that is we did not know about it -- i did not know about it until the meeting of april 19th, which was at the flynn school. and we we

he was not on school property. school was not in session. in fact, he was not in sight of a school." talk about how the prosecution under these school zone laws can take place even when they are not on property of schools? guest: tennessee decided that these laws apply day or night whether school is not in session or not, during summer, in private residences. even if you are just driving through, you can be pulled over for a traffic stop and if you have drugs on u.n. and happen to be within 1000 feet of these areas, you can receive an enhanced sentence. and in tennessee, that can be the difference between three years with possible probation or eight years, mandatory minimum. in extreme cases, you can get up to 15 years mandatory minimum sentence, which is the same felony level as second-degree murder or rape. and you have the chance of early release, about 85% of time served with those crimes, but not with the school zone offense. so it is possible you serve more time in prison as a first time nonviolent drug offense than a rapist in tenness

home schools, charter schools, private schools, rather than public schools. with this opportunity, we fought very hard to open this window for part-time-part-time. they are challenged now, forced to some it is almost like negotiation. i hate to say it. the pressure is real come and you want to see that as opposed them,ching in and showing that the families in and they will follow. >> i am of the belief we raised money for education so their child is educated. to be crazy if we had every scholarship that went to a had tolar school and you go to that school or lose it. the way the public school has responded to choice is something that is interesting. in arizona, a former colleague found data because of open enrollment, charter schools, that the county of maricopa, the largest county in arizona, half of the students are going to a school other than the school they are zoned to attend. you have this hollywood of ille, thatcottsv are not recruiting students to come to their schools. they had to say, come to us, do not go to that private charter school. it is chan

or to expel them from school. this is where it would take a long time and that this didn't want to do it. the one pupil who threatened him with the pistol was indeed expelled but the others are still running around there and enjoying their happy school life so to speak. the school director went on to admit in interviews that he should have acted sooner. he regretted that but that what. is nothing but it's still a mystery to me why he didn't intervene immediately get tough and set boundaries. because as it was there was nothing preventing any kind of attack in the school tolerated or ignored it. jews are increasing the number of desecrations who grapes is increasing in berlin some of the stumbling stones the bronze plaques in memory of murdered jews have been torn out of the pavement. what do you have to say about this change of climate would you advise jews to appear in public with a star of david or a keeper. but no it's not a good idea if you don't feel that your faith requires you to wear one i'd say don't do i
