i'm a teacher at sfusd. i'm here to advocate that the board of education of san francisco affirm that black lives matter and i see two ways to do this. one is to discontinue the mou that you currently have agreed to and that's not enough. we know that. we know that you also need to go further. you need to use your position of power to demand the city government completely defunds the sro program and redirect that money back into our schools. you can fully fund wellness centers with council workers and social workers. the police should never have cause to enter our schools. we know they don't keep our black and brown youth safe. we are here to demand you take a stand. thank you. >> president sanchez, can i make a quick comment or update? >> yes. >> i've learned -- there's a livestream available for folks, so for folks listening on the zoom call or on the phone, there's a livestream if you go below the sf gov page and if they log on and off of the zoom call, that may create more space. i wanted folks to know t

sfusd school sites. there needs to be a district standard when it comes to communicating with families during this moment when information for our students is ever changing. this centralized standard should include, a, wellness checks made by school site staff to every household at least once per week. b, biweekly communication meetings via video conference with a phone option led by each school site principal. four, we ensure that sfusd studen students receive at least two hours of direct instruction from teachers evidence to detract from covid learning laws. some staff members from sfusd decided not to come to our parent led meetings last week. also, it makes me wonder do the black lives really matter to this district, and are you really interested in your all political careers? this is super unheard of for a district to continually have parents come out to try to -- >> your time is up. thank you. >> thank you. >> hello, joanne? joanne? joanne, are you there? hello, kevin? >> can you hear me? >> joanne

community, and i'm an sfusd librarian? and we're seeking to urge you to delay voting on this budget. we need time to understand the cuts that are being proposed, and it is offensive to vote on an interim budget that affects our most vulnerable students and para heros. as knewer teacher, i rely heavily on the support of the paraeducators at our school, and i'm frankly worried about the precedent that was set. this is the time given the current status of the country, this is the time to stand for equity and education. thank you. >> thank you. hello, lee? >> hi. this is alita fisher, past chair of the community advisory committee for education. just want to make it clear, when we're talking about cuts, we're talking about cuts that will specifically affect only special education services. so equity, if we want -- the c.a.c., one of our asks for 2021, on slide nine, i think it was, that we just presented to you tonight, was a plan to make sure that our paraeducators are able to support students through distance learning and th

the community worked with the sfusd advisory communities, including african-american parent advisory council, the community advisory community of special education, the district learning advisory community, and the new [indiscernible] sp -- young youth services to ensure that together we are hearing from, reflective of local student and family populations. due to the shelter in place, the p.a.c. march and april meetings were canceled until we could determine the best way to have an online forum format while still meeting legal requirements of an open meeting and ensuring that we could provide appropriate language interpretation and translation services. this also allowed the p.a.c. members to settle into their new family routines from working and learning at home. at the main p.a.c. meeting, we discussed the full impact of the closures on students and families, using questions developed from the california department of education from their school districts and reports on covid-19. the impact from the discussions is along with the input of the meeting with the a.a. p.a.c., c.a.c., an

in a statement, the san francisco police department said it values the relationship with sfusd, and wants to continue working with them. we firmly believe that our youth and school resource officer programs serve as positive ways to build lasting and healthy relationships between our officers. >> once the district assesses the staff and comes up with a more detailed security plan, then it needs to present it to the board for approval. in san francisco, jackie ward, nbc bay area news. >> here's a reminder that fire season is here, along with the fourth of july. this small fire on a popular south bay trail, this afternoon. about a quarter of an acre burned along the loss gatos creek trail near camden avenue, thankfully nobody was hurt and no word yet on a cause. >> and okay, it keeps making the firefight more difficult, a warm week ahead. let's go to jeff. >> jeff? >> yeah, all of our brush is extremely dry right now, as many of us know, the weed abatement deadlines come due this month. where you need to clear back the weeds away from your house, as we get in to the 80s. we get had in the 9

i want to thank all the sfusd teachers, and all the teachers have done an amazing job during the pandemic. we all agree that housing is a crisis. we all want people to stay in their homes. what people really need is rental assistance. it is clear from every single call that people are feeling fear, insecurity, and stress. as a preschoolteacher, i know that in order to reduce conflict, we need to reduce stress. many people have mentioned how stressful this city is. there is a lot of hostility on this call. people need help, and this is not the way to help and will not reduce stress because debt will be building on both sides. this ordinance not only is not the only way we can prevent evictions, there are many other possibilities like san francisco paying rent or offering tax relief. i heard the gentleman hours ago that is working with housing and rent assistance and says they are in dire need for the government help. having consumer debt is not reducing stress. going to small claims court is not reducing stress for all the tenants that have not been able to work. people need their rents pa

i'm a district 5 resident, and i'm also an sfusd teacher? calling in support of this legislation? i think it would be immoral of our city to leave such a huge part of our community behind at this time. i do hear all of the landlords that have called in, and i obviously support any measures that need to be taken to also ensure that landlords can be stable and be made whole. that needs to be part and parcel of what happens in order to bring all of our community along together. as a schoolteacher in the last ten weeks, i have seen the impact of unstable housing on so many of my students and the move from unstable housing to homelessness. as we all know, homelessness is a factor that causes children to miss school, to leave school earlier, to have lower test scores. really, in the classroom, it looks like kids are just sitting there and looking worried, or looking out the window, wondering where their family is at the moment or asking what are we doing now because it's really hard for them to concentrate because of the stress that they're facing

electorate is really only catering to older, lighter voters and also in san francisco, one in three sfusd have an immigrant parent. so with immigrant parents disenfranchised, it is important that youth are able to address the needs of their families and communities, so that policies and elected officials we vote on and that benefiting everybody in our city. , not just those with a privilege to vote. next slide, please. >> so expanding voting to 16- and 17-year-olds builds lifelong voters. 16 is a much better age to start the habit, 18 a year of a transition. many of 18-year-olds are going off to college and it's a challenging time to start the habit of voting. research shows that those who vote in one election are 25% more likely to vote in the next one. so it's important to make voting more accessible by letting 16-year-olds volt. -- vote. also many 16-year-olds have grown up in san francisco their whole lives, like i have. so they understand and they care about issues in san francisco. like commissioner ronen mentioned, youth are organizing their own initiatives right now to fight about
