NEXT UP WE'VE COMMUNICATIONS.

WE'LL START WITH C. S. E. A. >> WE LIKE TO EXTEND OUR WARM WELCOME TO THE PARENTS, FAMILIES, GUESTS, BOARD MEMBERS, THAT ARE HERE PRESENT TONIGHT.

THANK YOU FOR PROVIDING C. S. E. A. LOCAL 745 WITH THE STUDENT, EXPRESS THE OPPORTUNITY FOR OUR PARTNERSHIP WITH THE SCHOOL DISTRICT.

AS WE APPROACH THE END OF THE SCHOOL YEAR, WE WANT TO EXPRESS OUR GRATITUDE TO OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS.

IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE DISTRICT, C. SEA WAS ABLE TO COMPLETE A 3 YEAR CONTRACT, A CONTRACT HIGHLY APPRECIATED BY THE MEMBERSHIPSHIP.

C. SEA IS LOOKING FORWARD TO THE SETTLEMENT OF OUR ONLY GRIEFIANS OF THE YEAR. KNOW THAT C. SEA IS CONTINUING TO WORK WITH THE PRINCIPALS, MANAGERS, AND SUPERVISORS AT THE LOWEST LEVEL.

TONIGHT WE'RE DELIGHTED TO HAVE THE CHANCE TO THANK OUR C. SEA BROTHERS AND SISTERS WHO HAVE SERVED OUR GREAT DISTRICT WELL AND ARE BEGINNING AN EXCITING NEW CHAPTER IN THEIR LIFE, RETIREMENT.

WE ARE HONORED AND HUMBLED TO ANNOUNCE THIS C. SEA MEMBERS TONIGHT. SOME OF THEM HAVE, SOME THEM ARE NOT PRESENT. WE DID HONOR THOSE WHO WERE HERE. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

>> THANK YOU. >> EXUP WE HAVE NATOMAS TEACHERS ASSOCIATION, N. T. A.

>> HELLO, EVERYONE. TRUSTEES, PRECEDENT GRANT, NICE TO SEE YOU -- PRESIDENT GENT, FIRST, OUR WE'RE SAYING WE WANT TO CELEBRATE OUR RETIREES, IT'S INCREDIBLE TO GET TO N IN YOUR CAREER TO RETIRE AND TODAY IS THE DAY FOR SCHOOL NURSES SO I WANT TO HONOR OUR SCHOOL NURSES TODAY. THEN ALSO WE HAVE BEEN GOING THROUGH TEACHER APPRECIATION WEEK AND TODAY IS CALIFORNIA DAY OF THE TEACHER. FOR ALL OF THOSE, EVERYBODY I WANT TO SAY THIS IS A WEEK OF APPRECIATION.

YOU KNOW, TEACHERS, WE LIKE OUR TREATS AND CAR WASHES AND WE APPRECIATE ALL OF THOSE THINGS.

N. T. A. SPENT YESTERDAY AFTERNOON CELEBRATING OUR EDUCATORS AND OUR N. T. A. TEACHER APPRECIATION EVENT EVEN WITH THE RAIN AND COLD. I CAN TELL YOU MANY ARE HAPPY WITH WHAT THE DISTRICT AND N. T. A. HAVE AGREED TO THUS FAR. MANY ARE HOPING WE CAN COME OUT OF THE NEGOTIATIONS SOON WITH A CONTRACT THAT WILL KEEP TEACHERS WHO RIGHT NOW ARE LOOKING FOR GREENER PASTURES HERE IN NATOMAS. N. T. A. HAS COME TO THE TABLE WITH WHAT WE KNOW ARE BOLD ASKS.

WE'RE DOING THIS BECAUSE WE BELIEVE FIRMLY THAT THE RETENTION CRISIS IS REAL IN THE DISTRICT.

WE REPORTED THAT NATOMAS UNIFIED WAS SECOND TO LAST IN AVERAGE PAY IN THE REGION.

GNAT MASS TEACHERS STAY AN AVERAGE OF 8 YEARS, IT'S

WORLD AT AN AN ALASKAED A -- >> OTHER DISTRICTS HAVE AN AVERAGE OF 12 YEARS. RIGHT NOW WE KNOW L. G. A.

IS LOWER THAN A LOT OF THE OTHER LOCAL CHARTER SCHOOLS.

WHICH TEND TO HAVE LOWER RETENTIONS THAN THE NON-CHARTERS. RANDY HODGE, ONE OF OUR BARGAINING LEADS HE GLOTS GOT TO SEE HIS FIRST CLASS OF KINDERGARTENERS AND HE GOT TO WRITE THEM LETTERS AND SEE THEM WALK THE STAGE. ALL OF OUR STUDENTS DESERVE THAT. THEY DESERVE TO HAVE THEIR KINDERGARTEN TEACHER THERE WHEN THEY GRADUATE.

WHEN I SEE THE RELATIONSHIP THAT GEORGIA SHAW HAS SHE IS NUMBER ONE IN SENIORITY IN THE DISTRICT WITH MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY IT IS AMAZING, SHE CAN GO OUT ANYWHERE AND SHE IS TAUGHT SOMEBODY'S KID.

ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE. WE KNOW HOW IMPORTANT IT IS FOR US TO BE HERE FOR THE SIBLINGS, FOR THE COUSINS,

[00:30:04]

CURRENTLY NUSD BASED ON THE CALCULATOR A SINGLE PARENT DOES NOT MAKE A LIVING WAGE ON OUR SALARY SCHEDULE UNTIL THEY REACH THE 17TH STEP IN CLASS FOUR.

THIS IS JUST BASED ON THE SALARY.

THIS DOESN'T TAKE INTO CONTRACT ANY DEDUCTIONS FOR HEALTHCARE OR ANYTHING ELSE. I HAVE MEMBERS WHO ARE FRIENDS OF MINE WHO ARE IN THIS POSITION EVEN AFTER HAVING WORKED IN THE DISTRICT FOR 15 YEARS.

THEY'RE STILL NOT MAKING A WAGE THAT SUPPORTS THEM IN SACRAMENTO, EDUCATORS DESERVE MORE.

IF WE WANT TO RETAIN TEACHERS WE HAVE TO PAY A LIVING WAGE AND IMPROVE WORKING CONDITIONS.

WE BELIEVE OUR DISTRICT HAS THE RESOURCES TO KEEP TEACHERS IN NATOMAS. BUDGETS ARE A REFLECTION OF OUR PRIORITIES. LOCAL MEDIA HAS SERVED NATOMAS AS THE DISTRICT SPENDING THE MOST WHEN IT COMES TO PER. YOULE SPENDING, THIS WAS PUBLISHED IN THE SACRAMENTO BEE DURING THE STRIKE.

THE DEMANDS OF THE JOB ARE GREATER THAN THEY'VE EVER BEEN. N. T. A. IS VERY AWARE THAT THE MARKET FOR TEACHERS IS COMPETITIVE NOR.

WE'RE IN HIGH DEMAND ACROSS THE STATE AND COUNTRY.

I TEACH HISTORY AND I'M IN HIGH DEMAND.

THAT ABSOLUTELY NEVER HAPPENED.

ANYBODY WHO IS A HISTORY TEACHLER TELL YOU EVERYBODY IS A HISTORY TEACHER. THE STRONGEST RECRUITMENT TOOL THAT WE HAVE IS TO PROVIDE A DISTRICT WHERE PEOPLE CAN SEE THEMSELVES LONG-TERM.

WE'RE MOVING TOWARDS THAT. WE APPRECIATE THAT.

IF THEY WANT TO HAVE A FAMILY, WE NEED TO BE THE DISTRICT THAT MAKES IT AFFORDABLE FOR THEM TO DO THAT. IF THEY WANT TO BUY A HOUSE, WE NEED TO BE A DISTRICT THAT HELPS THEM DO THAT.

MAYBE THAT EVEN MEANS WE PAY FOR STUDENT LOANS.

BEYOND THAT WE HAVE TO BE HERE FOR NEW TEACHERS CREATING A SAFE AND SUPPORTIVE SCHOOLS FOR EDUCATORS HAVE THE SUPPORT THEY NEED TO GROW.

AND LEARN. SO THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH.

I -- [INAUDIBLE] [APPLAUSE] + NEXT TIME I SEE YOU ALL, IT WILL BE SUMMER.

>> THANK YOU. NEXT UP IS OUR STUDENT BOARD

MEMBER WALI-ALI. >> THANK YOU.

>> I SUPPOSE SUPERINTENDENT EVANS ISN'T HERE TODAY BUT GOOD EVENING, PRESIDENT GRANT, BOARD MEMBERS AND GUESTS. IN THE PAST 2 WEEKS STUDENTS FINISHED THEIR CAP TASTING AND THE LEADERSHIP TEAM SAW THEIR EFFORTS PAY OFF AS THE FIRST YEAR BOOK IN FOUR YEARS ARRIVED LAST WEEK. DISCOVERY ANNOUNCED THEIR VALEDICTORIAN AND SALUTE TORAN AND RECOGNIZED SELF SENIORS WITH AWARDS. INDERKUM DID THAT AS WELL.

INDERKUM HAS BEEN KNEE DEEP IN TESTS.

IN THE PAST FEW WEEKS STUDENTS HAVE BEEN ABLE TO ENJOY THE CARNAL, SENIOR COLLEGE SIGNING DAY AND CAFE NIGHT AND PROM. LIKE INDERKUM LEROY GREENE HAS BEEN HAVING HELD THEIR MIDDLE SCHOOL DANCE AND CULTURE ON CONNECTEDNESS SUMMIT.

THERE WAS CAUSE FOR -- NATOMAS HIGH SCHOOL WAS PROUD TO CELEBRATE THE LEAGUE CHAMPIONS FOR THE TRACK AND FIELD WITH 14 STUDENT ATHLETES GOING ON TO THE DIVISIONAL TRACK MEET. THEIR TENNIS PLAYERS GAVE THEM A REASON TO CHEER MAKING IT TO THE MASTERS TOURNAMENT. LASTLY, A FEW WEEKS AT NATOMAS, I'M STILL GOING THROUGH IT, THEIR FINAL FOOD MANIA EVENT WAS HELD WHERE STUDENTS WERE APPRECIATED FOR THEIR ATTENDANCE, AT NATOMAS HIGH CONSIDEREVER SENIORS PREPARED FOR THE SENIOR WEEK EVENTS SUCH AS THE CREATIVE GRADUATES TO VISIT THEATER SCHOOL AND FINALLY NATOMAS MIDDLE SCHOOL CELEBRATED THE SUCCESSFUL END OF THEIR BOYS AND GIRL SOCCER TEAM.

I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO DISCOVERY HIGH CONTINUING TO CELEBRATE THEIR SENIORS. UNDER DER KUM WILL BE HOLDING ITS SENIOR SERVICE NOKES.

L. G. A. WILL HOLD THEIR SENIOR ART SHOW AND APPRECIATING, YOU KNOW, PARTICIPATING IN MAY PRIDE DAY ON THE 20TH HOLDING THEIR SENIOR SIGNING DAY ON FRIDAY. ON MAY 9 AND 10, NATOMAS MIDDLE SCHOOL WILL FAMILIARIZE INCOMING SIXTH GRADERS FOR THE NEXT ACADEMIC SCHOOL YEAR.

TO FINISH EVERYTHING OFF WE LIKE TO THANK THE TEACHERS THAT HELPED STUDENTS PREPARE FOR THE CURRENT EXAMS. AND THEN I MENTIONED THIS EARLIER BUT I WANTED TO TAKE THIS LAST CHANG TO THANK THE NUSD BOARD OF TRUSTEES FOR BEING SO KIND, SUPPORTIVE AND WELCOMING ME AS I'VE BEEN HONORED TO FULFILL THE ROLE LAST YEAR.

[00:35:04]

[APPLAUSE] >> NEXT UP BOARD MEMBERS,

TRUSTEE BAINS. >> NO REPORT.

>> TRUSTEE HARDEN. >> JUST LIVING PROOF SHE IS A BETTER BOARD MEMBER ESPECIALLY THAN ME BECAUSE MY COMPUTER IS DADE. SHE PRINTED HERS OUT SO I WILL SAY I DON'T HAVE MUCH OF A REPORT BECAUSE IT'S SITTING ON MY COMPUTERMENTS I WILL SAY MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS MONTH IS HERE. I THINK OUR DISTRICT DOES A FINE JOB MAKING SURE THAT EVERYONE IS RECEIVING WHAT THEY NEED BUT IF YOU ARE NOT PLEASE REACH OUT TO US.

BECAUSE WE WANT TO INSURE THAT YOU ARE GETTING EVERYTHING THAT YOU NEED. I'VE HAD A CHANCE TO SPEAK WITH MORE FAMILIES AS OF LATE, AND I'M LOVING WHAT I'M HEARING SO THAT IS GOOD. TEACHER, STAFF WE'RE HEARING EVERYTHING THAT YOU ARE SAYING.

SO WE'RE DOING OUR BEST AS WELL AS YOU AND I WANT TO THANK EVERYBODY FOR EVERYTHING THAT THEY'RE DOING. I'M ALSO HOLDING A COMMUNITY WELLNESS FESTIVAL THURSDAY, JUNE 22 AT THE NEW AQUATIC CENTER 5:00 TO 7:30 P.M. YOU'LL GET MORE INFORMATION

HEREDIA. >> THANK YOU.

>> SO I WANT TO, THERE ARE A COUPLE OF THINGS, FIRST OF ALL I WANT TO SAY EVERYBODY FOR THE, WHO CAME OUT FOR THE GROUND BREAKING CEREMONY FOR THE -- [INAUDIBLE] A LOT OF PLANNING GETTING THAT EVENT TO HAPPEN SO I WANT TO THANK EVERYBODY BEHIND THE SCENES. THANK YOU TO TANYA FOR SERVING AS THE M.C. FOR US THAT DAY.

TRULY APPRECIATE IT. IT WAS AN HONOR.

LOOKING FORWARD TO THAT SCHOOL BEING BUILT BECAUSE PEOPLE HAVE TOLD ME THEY CAN'T WAIT FOR THEIR KIDS TO BE SIGNED UP TO BEING THE FIRST -- THANK YOU, EVERYONE. SECOND OF ALL, I, IN MY CAPACITY AS PRESIDENT OF CALIFORNIA SCHOOL BOARD ASSOCIATION, I SPENT A WEEK IN WASHINGTON, D.C. A FEW WEEKS AGO WITH OUR LEGISLATURES TALKING TO THEM ABOUT YOU KNOW, WHAT THE CALIFORNIA ISSUES ARE.

AND THAT IS HOME TO SCHOOL TRANSPORTATION, RETENTION RELIEVE, SHORTAGE OF TEACHERS, COVID A.D.A.RELIEF, L.C.F.F., A LOT OF DISCUSSION ABOUT WHAT WE'RE FACING AND ASKING THEM TO PLEASE WHEN THEY MAKE DECISIONS ABOUT SCHOOL DISTRICTS AND ESPECIALLY THE KIDS THAT WE SERVE, THAT THEY KEEP THESE THINGS IN MIND BECAUSE WITHOUT THE KIND OF MONEY THAT WE NEED ALTHOUGH THEY DON'T ALWAYS DICTATE HOW MUCH MONEY WE GET, BUT THEY DO AL LATE A -- ALLOCATE A LOT OF MONEY BACK THERE TO EDUCATION. JUST HAVING THEM TO REMIND THEM, PLEASE, YOU KNOW, WE REALLY DO NEED THE FUNDS TO CONTINUE SERVING OUR STUDENTS, ESPECIALLY FOLLOWING THE PANDEMIC WHERE THERE IS A LOT OF MANDATES COMING DOWN AND A LOT OF RESOURCES THAT WE NEED THAT ARE NOT PART OF OUR BUDGET. I DON'T HAVE MY NOTES IN FRONT OF ME. I WISH I DO.

I WROTE THEM OUT AND LEFT THEM AT HOME BUT I WAS LISTENING TO A SUPERINTENDENT TODAY WHO IS THE SUPERINTENDENT UP IN DEL NORTH WHICH IS WAY UP UP NORTH AND JUST THE FACT THERE ARE SO MANY KIDS WHO RIDE THE BUS TWO AND A HALF HOURS TO GET TO SCHOOL ON A DAILY BASIS. YOU KNOW BECAUSE OF JUST THE DISTANCE. SO WHEN I LISTEN TO OTHER DISTRICTS' SUPERINTENDENTS AND TRUST EYES TALK ABOUT THE CHALLENGES THEY FACE, I'M SO GLAD TO BE IN THIS DISTRICT. I'M SO GLAD TO BE A PART OF THIS BOARD BECAUSE I THINK THAT WE HAVE BUDGETED WELL FOR THE, YOU KNOW FOR THE UNEXPECTED THAT WE HAVE IN THIS DISTRICT. SO VERY APPRECIATIVE IN THAT SENSE, THANK YOU. MY FELLOW TRUSTEES.

JUST AGAIN ON A WEBINAR TODAY, I THINK WE'RE ALL WAITING FOR THE GOVERNOR'S RELEASE OF THE BUDGET.

AND TRYING TO GET THE MESSAGE TO HIM THAT WE NEED TO FUND THE BASE OF WHAT WE GET BECAUSE, WE NEED MORE MONEY AT THE BASE TO EDUCATE STUDENTS IN OUR SCHOOL DISTRICT. CONTINUALLY ADVOCATING FOR HIM ON THAT. ALSO THE FACT THAT THERE IS

[00:40:01]

OBVIOUSLY PENSION RELIEF BUT THE K. 12 FACILITIES WE WON'T GO THERE NOW BUT WE'RE GOING TO EXPAND BUT THEN WE HAVE TO FIND THE TEACHERS AND THE PERSONNEL SO.

A LOT OF THINGS. WE'LL SEE WHAT HAPPENS THIS WEEK WHEN WE GET THAT BUDGET.

I SEE SUPERINTENDENT EVANS SMILING.

I KNOW HE IS WAITING ALSO. THANK YOU.

>> THANK YOU, TRUSTEE HEREDIA.

TRUSTEE KAPLAN. >> THANK YOU, AGAIN CONGRATULATION TO ALL OUR RETIREES, MANY WHO SPENT 30 PLUS YEARS WITH OUR DISTRICT AND MANY WHO SPENT 30 PLUS YEARS IN EDUCATION,. I KNOW WHEN YOU JOIN EDUCATION IT'S WITH HEART AND IT'S FOR OUR KIDS SO MUCH APPRECIATED. THANKS TO ALL OF OUR STAFF AS THE YEAR IS SLOWLY COMING TO A CLOSE, THIS HAS BEEN A HARD YEAR FOR EVERYONE. FOR YOU, FOR OUR KIDS, FOR OUR FAMILIES. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU FOR BEING PART OF OUR FAMILY AND PLEASE AS TRUSTEE HARDEN SAID TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF.

WE'RE HERE TO HELP YOU IF YOU NEED IT.

I AGREE TRUSTEE HEREDIA, I'M ALREADY HEARING FROM COMMUNITY MEMBERS ASKING ME WHAT IS THE ENROLLMENT PROCESS FOR OUR NEW DUEL LANGUAGE IMMERSION SCHOOL AND IT'S -- MANY FAMILIES ALL OVER NATOMAS NOT JUST AROUND THE SCHOOL BUT ALL OVER ARE VERY EXCITED TO ENROLL THEIR KIDS. I'M EXCITED TO SEE THE OPENING NEXT YEAR AND THEN ALSO, I ATTENDED OUR, THE A.

A. P. I. NIGHT AT PASO VERDE.

IT WAS EXCITING TO SEE A BUNCH OF FAMILIES FROM ALL OVER THE DISTRICT THERE. GOING TO DO A LITTLE PLUG.

WE SHOULDN'T JUST DO A FAMILY MOVIE NIGHT ONCE A YEAR. I WOULD LOVE TO SEE A INORDINATE MAS, SOUTH NATOMAS BUT OPEN.

NOW THAT WE HAVE NEW FABULOUS MULTIPURPOSE ROOMS I CAN SEE US HOLDING SEVERAL HUNDRED COMMUNITY MEMBERS AND PARENTS HAVING A COMMUNITY NIGHT THAT ALSO HIGHLIGHTS OUR FABULOUS NUTRITION SERVICES AND THE FOOD THEY MADE. IT WAS WONDERFUL.

AND THEN VOLUNTEERS, ANYBODY LIKE TO VOLUNTEER NEXT FRIDAY? INDERKUM SENIOR SERVICE NIGHT STILL LOOKING FOR VOLUNTEERS, IT IS AN AMAZING NIGHT. IF YOU'VE NEVER DONE IT YOU SHOULD SIGN UP AND SEE THE VOLUNTEER PROJECT THAT IS SENIORS DO AS PART OF A GRADUATION REQUIREMENT AND IT'S REALLY, I MEAN, THAT'S SOMETHING I LOVE LISTENING TO THE PROJECTS THAT THEY DO.

THEN THE INDERKUM I. B. GALA IS THIS WEEKEND WHICH RAISES MONEY FOR THE I. B. PROGRAM AT INDER KUM AND MY FAVORITE TIME OF YEAR IS HERE, GRADUATION.

THANK YOU TO STAFF. IT'S A LOT OF WORK TO COORDINATE AND PUT ON GRADUATIONS.

[XIII.a. Charter School Financial Oversight: Natomas Charter, Natomas Pacific Pathways Prep and Westlake Charter Schools ]

>> I'M GOING -- >> YOU ARE GOING TO

INTRODUCE. >> MY BAD.

>> STARTING WITH NATOMAS CHARTER SCHOOL, I'M GOING TO ASK THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR TO COME UP.

>> I WAS EXCITED. >> I GOT IT.

NAILED. I TOTALLY --

>> -- >> THANK YOU FOR HAVING US THIS EVENING. ANITA SCHWAB AND I ARE HERE TO PRESENT OUR BUDGET UPDATE.

SO IS THERE ANOTHER EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR WHO WILL BE COMING UP WHO ALWAYS STARTS MEETINGS WITH CELEBRATIONS. WE AT NATOMAS CHARTER GLEANED THE IDEA AND WE LIKE TO START WITH CELEBRATIONS AS WELL. OUR THEME HAS BEEN ABOUT RECONNECTION. AS WE'VE BEEN WELCOMING ALL OF THE STUDENTS AND STAFF AND PARENTS BACK ON TO CAMPUS GETTING RECONNECTED. AND HERE IS SOME GLIMPSES OF WHAT LIFE HAS BEEN LIKE ON CAMPUS.

WE HAVE BEEN SO EXCITED TO HAVE OUR MUSIC STUDENTS BACK

[00:45:02]

THEY BROUGHT HOME ITSELF MIDDLE SCHOOL DISTRICT CHAMPIONSHIPS AND ALL THREE MAJOR SPORTS.

WE'RE EXCEPTIONALLY PROUD OF THEM.

ALSO OUR LIFE WON'T BE COMPLETE AT NATOMAS CHARTER SCHOOL WITHOUT MUSICAL THEATER.

THIS YEAR WE HAD MULTIPLE PRODUCTIONS GOING ON, LION KING, ALICE'S LOOKING GLASS. MOST RECENTLY IN THE HEIGHTS. ONE THING THAT IS A BIG POWERFUL CONNECTION WITH THESE PERFORMANCES IS THEY'RE ALL STORIES OF FINDING HOME.

THROUGHOUT THE PANDEMIC AND ESPECIALLY THIS YEAR EVERYONE AT NATOMAS CHARTER SCHOOL THOUGHT ABOUT HOW FORTUNATE WE ARE TO BE PART OF THE NATOMAS COMMUNITY.

AS TRUSTEE HEREDIA WAS MENTIONING I SIT ON SOME OF THE CAME CALLS SHE IS TALKING ABOUT AND I THINK EVERYBODY THANK GOODNESS WE'RE PART OF NATOMAS.

THIS LITTLE CAST OF STUDENTS THAT ARE IN THE HEIGHTS THEY'VE BEEN NOMINATED FOR SOMETHING CALLS A RITA MORENA AWARD WHICH IS THE TONIES FOR HIGH SCHOOL MUSICALS. WHILE MANY OF THEM ARE -- THEY'RE ALL CURRENTLY NATOMAS CHARTER SCHOOL STUDENTS MANY OF THEM ARE ALSO NATOMAS UNIFIED WHETHER THEY WENT TO AMERICAN LAKES OR BANNON CREEK TO THEIR HART WORK AND IS REAL' CELEBRATION OF EVERYTHING THAT IS GOING ON IN COMMUNITY.

NEXT YEAR IS GOING TO BE OUR 30TH YEAR OF OPERATION.

29 YEARS AGO THIS MONTH, THERE WERE TWO TEACHERS WHO CAME BEFORE THIS BOARD TO ASK FOR THE ORIGINAL CHARTER PETITION FOR NATOMAS CHARTER SCHOOL.

WE'RE VERY EXCITED TO JUMP INTO OUR 30TH YEAR.

YES, THAT IS A COPY OF THE ORIGINAL CHARTER PETITION.

WE STILL HAVE IT IN OUR FILES.

IT'S AWESOME TO SEE HOW SIMILAR THE SCHOOL IS AND ONE OUR FIRST ADVERTISING PUBLICATIONS HERE IN THE LOCAL NEWSPAPER. I'M GOING TO HAND IT OVER TO ANITA WHO IS GOING TO TALK MORE ABOUT FINANCE.

>> SO, THANK YOU, GUYS. IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE WITH OUR 30TH YEAR JUST LOOKING BACK AT A COMMUNITY MEMBER OVER 20 YEARS, AND THE CONNECTION I'VE HAD WHEN NATOMAS CHARTER SCHOOL WHEN I WAS AT NATOMAS UNIFIED.

TONIGHT WE'RE GOING TO PRESENT OUR SECOND INTERRUM REPORT USING THE SAME FORMAT WE USED IN THE PAST.

ALSO TO LET YOU KNOW THAT OUR DETAILS REPORTS ARE ON FILE WITH THE DISTRICT STAFF ON THEIR -- LAST YEAR WHEN WE'RE BEFORE YOU WE TALKED ABOUT OR REFLECTED ABOUT THE ROLLER COASTER RIDE OF REVENUES WE WERE GOING THROUGH WITH THE STATE ASSUMPTIONS, THIS YEAR WAS DIFFERENT WITH THE SUPERCOLA WE GOT.

BUT I WOULD SAY THAT OUR CHALLENGE THIS YEAR IS NAVIGATING WITH THE OLD FRED CATEGORICAL PROGRAMS THAT HAVE COME BACK WITH STRINGS ATTACHED AS E AS WELL AS ALL THE PLANS THAT CAME WITH THEM: SORRY.

OKAY. SO FOR OUR MAJOR ASSUMPTIONS HERE, OUR ACTUAL C. BED ENROLLMENT WAS ABOUT 1,896.

WE PROJECTED AT 1900 STUDENTS.

PROJECTED P. 2 AT 1805. THAT WAS ABOUT A 95% ATTENDANCE RACE. ITEMIZED THERE BY GRADE LEVEL. ATTENDANCE FOR EACH GRADE.

HOWEVER, P. T. ATTENDANCE CAME IN SLIGHTLY HIGHER CLOSE TO 97% BUT 96% OR SO. SO WE'RE AT 1,819.

AGAIN WE USED THE SUPERCOLA OR N. DUPLICATED 3 YEAR ROLLING AVERAGE WITH THE 20.59 AND OUR AVERAGE L. C.

F. C. WAS 9,495. SORRY ABOUT THAT.

HERE IS THE BIRD'S EYE VIE OF OUR SECOND REPORT HERE.

THIS YEAR WE'RE PROJECTING ABOUT 21.2 MILLION IN REVENUES, 22 MILLION IN EXPENDITURES AND WE HAVE A PROJECTING DEFICIT SPENDING OF ABOUT $225,000 ADDED TO THE $13 MILLION FUND BALANCE PROJECTING TO END THE YEAR WITH 12.7. THAT DEFEND SIRT SPENDING IS PLANNED DEFICIT PLANNING WITHIN OUR EXPENDITURES, WE'VE OVER 485,000 IN RESTRICTED CAT TOR GALLONSWELLS PURPOSELY BLOWERRED OUR A.D.A.PROJECTIONS FOR OUR NONCLASSROOM -- [INAUDIBLE] YOU CAN SEE IN THE OUTYEARS, WE'RE PROJECTING POSITIVE SPENDING.

HERE IS A SNAPSHOT OF REVENUES, ONE THING THAT I WANTED TO SHOW WE'RE REALLY DEPENDENT ON BASICALLY ANY STUDENT ATTENDANCE DRIVEN. ABOUT 98% OF OUR FUNDS ARE COMING FROM STUDENT ATTENDANCE.

THE EXPENDITURE SIDE HERE, I CALL THIS MY -- I HAVE

[00:50:05]

AND SUPERVISORY SALARY WHICH IS ABOUT 12% FOR OUR SCHOOL BUT WE'RE AT 80% SALARY AND BENEFITS TOTAL ON THERE.

OKAY. FOR OUR SUBSEQUENT YEARS, OUR PROJECTIONS WE'RE USING THE COLAS BID ON WHEN THIS REPORT WAS DONE IT WAS THE JANUARY PROPERLY.

OUR AVERAGE FOR THE TWO OUT YEARS WAS JUST OVER $10,000 FOR EACH YEAR. WE'RE PROJECTING THE NAME ENROLLMENT GOING OUT. AND THEN OUR UNDUPLICATED 3 YEAR AVERAGES ARE THE 28.7 AND THE 27.6.

IN LOOKING AT OUR REVENUES AND EXPENDITURES REWE MOVED THE ONE TIME EXPENDITURES, WE INCLUDED STEP AND LEVEL KOST INCREASES. WE PLANNED AT THIS TIME FOR ONE F. T. E. FOR CREDENTIALED TEACHER.

IT'S MORE IN THE MATH AREA. INCREASE FOR PENSION COSTS WHICH ARE SIGNIFICANT STARTING NEXT YEAR.

PLAN FOR OPEN ENROLLMENT BENEFIT CHANGES, WE USE THE CONSUMER PRICE INDEX FOR OUR OPERATING EXPENSES TO PLAN FOR INFLATION AND WE MOVED ALL THE ONE TIME EXPENDITURES. LOOKING AT CASH FLOW THIS YEAR WE OPENED UP WITH 13.6 MILLION.

WE'VE HAD POSITIVE CASH FLOW EVERY MONTH.

THE AVERAGE CATCH FLOW WAS ABOUT 13.8 AND WE'RE PROJECTING TO END WITH 11.6. FOR THE TWOOUT YEARS AGAIN POSITIVE CASH EVERY MONTH. AND FOR NEXT YEAR, PROJECTING TO END WITH, IN JUNE WITH 11.7 THEN THE FOLLOWING YEAR WITH 11.2. THIS IS JUST A SNAPSHOT OF OUR RESERVE. WE HAVE A FISCAL POLICY FOR THE RESERVES WHICH IS ABOUT 35%.

THE ECONOMIC UNCERTAINTY THE BOARD WANTS 10% AND THEN WE HAVE ANOTHER 25% FOR ADDITIONAL RESERVES.

SO YOU CAN SEE IN THE PIE CHART WE DO HAVE ADDITIONAL RESERVES CARVED OUT FOR CASH OPERATINGY NEEDS AN LONG-TERM FUNDS. SO WITH THAT, WE CONSIDER THIS A POSITIVE CERTIFICATION.

WE'RE ABLE TO MEET OUR FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS FOR THE CURRENT YEARS WITH POSITIVE BUDGET FUND BALANCE

IN CASH. >> AS WE LOOK AHEAD WE'RE CLOSING THE SCHOOL YEAR. WE HAVE OUR CHARTER RENEWAL COMING UP LATER ON THIS EVENING.

WE LOOK FORWARD TO CONTINUING TO COLLABORATE ON OUR COVID RESPONSE. WE APPRECIATE ALL THE DISTRICT EMPLOYEES THAT HAVE ASSISTED WITH THAT.

WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO IMPLEMENT OUR SUMMER LEARNING PROGRAMS TO SUPPORT STUDENTS IMPACT BY THE PANDEMIC. NEXT YEAR, THIS IS OUR 30TH YEAR OF OPERATIONS. WHEN I GOT HIRED IT WAS OUR 20TH YEAR, IT FEELS LIKE 5 MINUTES AGO, I KNOW DON'T KNOW WE'RE ALREADY AT THE 30TH YEAR BUT WE'RE GOING TO BUILD OUT THE T. K. PROGRAM AND RECOGNIZING THAT WE'RE ALL HEALING FROM THE EXPERIENCE OF THE PANDEMIC AND IN DIFFERENT WAYS. MAKING SURE THAT OUR STUDENTS, STAFF MEMBERS AND FAMILIES ARE BEING SUPPORTED IN THAT TRANSITION. WITH THAT ANY QUESTIONS FOR ANY OF US? FROM THE BOARD?

>> TRUSTEE KAPLAN. >> AS ALWAYS, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ANSWERING THE QUESTIONS THAT I PROVIDE AND FOR THE PUBLIC. I DON'T KNOW IF WE DO THIS, BUT IF THESE COULD BE INCLUDED IN THE MINUTES, I THINK THE PUBLIC WOULD LIKE TO SEE HOW OPEN AND TRANSPARENT ALL OF OUR CHARTERS ARE BECAUSE I ASKED ABOUT YOUR AUDITS, YOUR FINDINGS AND FISCAL MANAGEMENT. UNDUPLICATED ACCOUNT AND I THINK, BUT THE INTERESTING OR NEW QUESTION I ASK THIS YEAR IS WHAT HAS BEEN THE MOST CHALLENGING AND HOW ARE

YOU ADDRESSING THAT? >> YOU KNOW SO AS I WROTE IN THE WRITTEN RESPONSE, YOU KNOW OUR BIGGEST CHALLENGE HAS BEEN A GENERAL KIND OF TRYING TO REESTABLISH A SENSE OF NORMALCY. WHAT I'VE NOTICED COMING BACK THIS YEAR IS EVERY STUDENT IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT. SOME WERE VERY ACADEMICALLY IMPACTED BY THE PANDEMIC. SOME WERE VERY SOCIAL EMOTIONAL, OTHERS YOU WON'T EVEN HAVE AN IDEA A PANDEMIC OCCURRED. ONE OF THE THINGS WE'VE FOCUSED ON THIS YEAR IS DOUBLING DOWN ON COMMUNITY BUILDING AND RECONNECTION. SO WE'VE BEEN DOING ACTIVITIES LIKE WEB AND LINK CREW.

TODAY WE HAD FIELD DAY ON CAMPUS.

LAST WEEK OUR BIG DAY OF GIVING WHICH WAS THE FIRST TIME FOR ALL FAMILIES TO COME BACK ON CAMPUS BRINGING FIELD TRIPS BACK, SPORTS BACK.

OUR MUSICAL PRODUCTION, WERE SELLOUT CROWDS EVERY SINGLE TIME. I THINK IT WAS BECAUSE PEOPLE WERE HUNG TRY TO BE BACK TOGETHER.

THIS IS WHERE WE'VE BEEN FOCUSING A LOT OF ENERGY IS BRINGING EVERYONE BACK TOGETHER.

THEN RECOGNIZING WE DO HAVE STUDENTS WHO HAVE INDIVIDUAL NEEDS AND WE HAVE SEEN AN UP TICK IN STUDENT WHO ARE COMING IN WITH SPECIAL EDUCATION NEEDS.

[00:55:02]

THIS IS NOT NECESSARILY GOING AWAY ANY TIME SOON.

AND YOU KNOW WE'RE GOING TO LOOK AT WHERE OUR KIDS ARE AT AND MEETING THEM THERE AND FIGURING OUT WHAT

SUPPORTS THEY NEED. >> I REALLY APPRECIATE THAT.

I THINK I MAY HAVE MISSED IT.

WHAT IS YOUR FREE AND REDUCED PERCENTAGE? I SAW THE UNDUPLICATED BUT --S.

>> FOR THIS YEAR IT'S OH, MY GOODNESS, 28.59 --

>> 3 YEAR AVERAGE? OKAY.

THANK YOU. >> COMMENTARY --

>> I DON'T HAVE ANY QUESTIONS BECAUSE YOU WERE SO EXPLICIT IN YOUR RESPONSE THAT YOU SEND.

I VERY MUCH APPRECIATE THIS. I KNOW IT'S PROBABLY A LITTLE BIT OF A DUPLICATE THAT YOU'VE ALREADY GOT IN THE ORIGINAL REPORT, BUT I WANT TO SAY THANK YOU.

THERE WAS A LOT OF INFORMATION.

IT MAKES IT -- [INAUDIBLE]

>> THANK YOU. >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

>> THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE COMPREHENSIVE ANSWERS IN THE REPORT. THANK YOU.

>> YOU ARE WELCOME. >> ALL RIGHT.

>> THANK YOU. >> NEXT WE'LL HAVE NATOMAS 6 PATHWAYINGS CHARTER SCHOOL AND DIRECTOR METE WHO SUPPORTS THEM WITH THEIR BUDGET WORK IS GOING TO BE PRESENTING AND EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR TOM RETON WILL BE

UP WITH SHARON. >> GOOD EVENING, THIS PRESENTATION IS FOR THE NULL FINANCIAL REVIEW FOR ALL SCHOOLS, FOR THE OVERVIEW WE'RE GOING TO SHARE THE PRIMARY FUNDING FACTORS, REVENUE AND EXTENDURES DISTRIBUTIONS, PROJECTIONS AND ASSUMPTIONS FOR ALL THREE SCHOOLS. FOR THE MP3 -- (CAPTIONS WILL RESUME SHORTLY.)

>> WE ALSO HAVE COMBINED STATE AND FEDERAL REVENUE, 16% WHICH INCLUDES ONE TIME PANDEMIC FUNDING.

AS FAR AS EXPENDITURES, 70% OF TOTAL BUDGETS REPRESENT SALARIES AN BENEFITS. MP3 ELEMENTARY SCHOOL MULTIYEAR PROJECTION WHICH IS REVENUE VERSUS EXPENDITURES. THE NET INCREASE DECREASE.

THE BOLD LINE. FOR 2021, 22, WE SHOW DEFICIT SPENDING FOR $356,000 BUT THIS IS JUST DUE TO ONE TIME RESTRICTED PANDEMIC RESOURCES, BUT AT THE END OF THE YEAR WE HAVE PROJECTION OF A SURPLUS.

FOR 23, 24 WE SHOW THERE IS NO DEFICIT SPINNING.

THIS IS A HEALTHY RESERVE AND.

P. ELEMENTARY SCHOOL MET THEIR REQUIRED RESERVE.

MP3 MIDDLE SCHOOL P ENROLLMENT WAS AT 511, A GROWTH OF 5 FROM PREFER YEAR.

98% OF ENROLLMENT. PROJECTED U. P. P. S. 4481.

INCREASE OF 2%. AGAIN AVERAGE IS SHOWN BELOW. MP3 ELEMENTARY SCHOOL WE NOTED FOR THE SURPLUS FOR THE FLEE YEARS, NO DEFICIT SPENDING -- SORRY. I'M GOING BACKWARDS.

SORRY. THERE IS NO DEFICIT SPENDING FOR THE 3 YEARS. HEALTHY FUND BALANCE AND THEY MET THE STATE'S REQUIRED RESERVE.

MP3 HIGH SCHOOL ENROLLMENT 632 DOWN 6 FROM PRIOR YEAR.

A. D. A. 1603, 97% OF ENROLLMENT.

PROJECTED U. P. P. IS 4320. INCREASE OF 4%.

AVERAGE WAS 10,896 RECEIVED PER STUDENTS FOR GRADES

[01:00:03]

EXPENSE DISTRIBUTION FOR HIGH SCHOOL 77% OF THE TOTAL BUDGETS REPRESENTS SALARIES AN BENEFITS.

MP3 HIGH SCHOOL SIMILAR TO ELEMENTARY HIGH SCHOOL WE'VE ALMOST 51,000 DEFICIT SPENDING, ALSO DUE TO ONE TIME PANDEMIC EXPENDITURES. BUT WE'VE PROJECTION SURPLUS AT THE END OF THE YEAR WHEN WE CLOSE THE BOOKS.

HEALTHY FUND BALANCE NO DEFICIT SPENDING FOR THE SUBSEQUENT YEARS. THEY MET THE REQUIRED RESERVE. AS FAR AS ASSUMPTIONS WE USED RECOMMENDATIONS FROM SCHOOL SERVICE OF CALIFORNIA BASED ON THEIR CONSERVATIVE APPROACH.

WE BUILT IN THE COST OF LIVING ADJUSTMENTS, 533% FOR 22, 23, 366 FOR 24-25. FOR MIDDLE SCHOOL AND HIGH SCHOOL, THE, WE LEFT ENROLLMENT RELATIVELY FLAT.

FOR ELEMENTARY SCHOOL DUE TO GROWTH WE INCREASED ENROLLMENT BY 29 FOR 22, 23, CONTINUED 23, 24 AND ADDED RELATED STAFFING. WE USED ALSO 95% ATTENDANCE RATIO TO BE CONSERVATIVE. AND BELOW YOU WILL SEE THAT THE U. P. P. FOR ALL 3 SCHOOLS FOR 22, 23 AND 23-24. THESE ARE OTHER ACONSUMESES ALSO USED FOR OUR MULTIYEAR PROJECTIONS.

AS YOU CAN SEE, FOR ELEMENTARY SCHOOL WE ADDED TWO ADDTIONAL TEACHERS AND ONE COUNCILOR AND REMOVE THE ONE TIME FURNITURE EXPENDITURE IN GENERAL FUND.

IN CONCLUSION, FOR THE CURRENT FISCAL YEAR 21, 22, BOTH ELEMENTIER AND HIGH SCHOOL ARE PROJECTING A DEFICIT SPENDING DUE TO A ONE TIME EXPENDITURES, BUT THERE IS A SURPLUS FOR UNRESTRICTED GENERAL FUNDING IN MIDDLE NO DEFICIT SPENDING.

FOR THE SUBSEQUENT YEARS ALL 3 SCHOOLS NO PROJECTION OF DEFICIT SPENDING. WE'LL FILE A POSITIVE CERTIFICATION. THIS CONCLUSION MY PRESENTATION. I'M WITH TOM AND SHARON.

WE ARE EHERE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.

THANK YOU. 9.

>> TRUSTEE KAPLAN. >> IT'S THE SAME SET OF QUESTIONS FOR THE MOST PART THAT I GIVE TO ALL OF OUR CHARTERS. THANK YOU FOR THAT PRESENTATION. I APPRECIATE ADDRESSING AND ACKNOWLEDGING HOW COVID HAS BEEN CHALLENGING AND OUR CHARTERS HAVING THAT ABILITY TO ABSORB ONE TIME COVID COSTS THAT COME UP BECAUSE WE KNOW THIS HAS BEEN A CHALLENGE AS WELL AS WHAT IT HAS DONE TO OUR A. D. A. AND CAN WREAK HAVOC ON OUR BUDGET.

BUT AGAIN, WE KNOW ONE OF THE BIGGEST CHALLENGES IS SOCIAL EMOTIONAL AND HOW IS MP3 LOOKING AT THAT AND TRYING TO ADDRESS THAT? BECAUSE OF THE TRAUMA OF THE

PANDEMIC? >> AS YOU KNOW WE HAVE AN INCREDIBLY LOW COUNSELOR TO STUDENT RATIO.

THAT HAS BEEN A HUGE BENEFIT.

WE BROUGHT IN ADDITIONAL STAFF TO WORK WITH STUDENTS.

I THINK THE STRENGTH OF WHAT WE DO LIES IN OUR ADVISORY PROGRAM AND KNOWING OUR STUDENTS AND FAMILIES WELL.

SO BEING ABLE TO MONITOR THAT ON A DAILY BASIS, THAT CONTACT, THE BIGGEST CHALLENGE AS I SAID, THIS HAS BEEN THE HEALTH AND SAFETY.

NATOMAS UNIFIED PLAYED A HUMAN ROLE IN THAT MAKING SURE WE'RE STAVE. SO THOSE THINGS.

THE BIGGEST CHALLENGE IS HEALTH AND SAFETY ALONG WITH THE CONSTRUCTION OF A NEW BUILDING.

WITH THAT GOING ON, I WANT TO THANK SUPERINTENDENT EVANS TO SAY, WE NEED TO CHANGE THIS AND KEEPING OUR

KIDS SAVE. >> WHAT IS THE BUILDING

EXPECTED TO BE COMPLETED? >> OCCUPATION WILL START IN JUNE. LAST OF THE FURNITURE DELIVERED IN JULY. WE'LL BEGIN IT FOR NEXT SCHOOL YEAR WITH A PLAY GROUND COMPLETED AT THE END

OF SEPTEMBER. >> I WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE AND THANK YOU FOR INCREASING OUR UNDUPLICATED AMOUNT AT EACH ONE OF OUR SEPARATE CHARTERS.

COME ON, NATOMAS CHARTER SCHOOL, YOU CAN DO IT.

I KNOW YOU GUYS LIKE TO WIN. USE THIS AS A WINNING NUMBER. YOU CAN MATCH US.

BUT THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK IN DOING THAT SO THAT IT LOOKS LIKE YOU ARE REPRESENTATIVE OF NATOMAS

UNIFIED. >> GREAT PLACE TO BE.

>> I YIELD THE REST OF MY TIME.

[01:05:06]

>> NOT GIVE MR. IKE MORE TIME.

>> TIME IS ERASED. NO YIELD.

>> NEXT WE'VE WESLEY CHARTER SCHOOL.

EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR JOHN AND STEVE.

>> GOOD EVENING, BOARD PRESIDENT ACCIDENT, AMAZING NATOMAS UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT SCHOOL AND INCREDIBLE NATOMAS UNIFIED COMMUNITY.

WELCOME, I'M JOHN HILLARY CLINTON AND I'M THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF OUR WEST LAKE CHARTER SCHOOL AND I HAVE THE HONOR OF PRESENTING TO YOU TONIGHT.

I'VE BEEN IN THE DISTRICT SINCE 1998 AND EVERY TIME I WALK IN THE ROOM I STILL GET A LITTLE NERVOUS.

I LOOK AT THE PICTURES ON ITSELF WALLS.

I THINK ABOUT WHAT WE'VE BEEN THROUGH.

I JUST LOVE THIS PLACE. THANK YOU FOR DOING ALL THAT YOU DO AND THANK YOU FOR BEING A PART OF WHAT WE'RE DOING. OKAY.

>> HE HASN'T CHANGED ONE BIT IN --

[LAUGHTER] >> LET'S STICK TO THE PRESENTATION. WE'RE GOING TO START WITH CELEBRATIONS. WE LIKE TO ANK ANGELA HERRERAOR OUR -- ANCHOR OUR CELEBRATIONS.

FIELD LESSONS ARE BACK, OUR 6TH GRADERS WENT OUT TO THE SCIENCE CAMP AND GOT SNOWED ON FOR THE FIRST TIME. YOU CAN SEE THE PICTURE UP THERE. LOVE TO HAVE FIELD LESSONS BACK AND LOVE TO SEE THE KIDS EXPLORING AGAIN.

IT'S WONDERFUL TO SEE IT HAPPENING.

(CAPTIONS WILL RESUME SHORTLY.)

>> OUR SUPPORT ON ACADEMIC AND SOCIAL EMOTIONAL HASN'T BEEN MORE IMPORTANT COMING OUT OF THE PANDEMIC AND DOUBLING DOWN IN LOTS OF WAYS TO SUPPORT THE, THE STUDENTS ACADEMICALLY AND SOCIAL EMOTIONALLY BUT ALSO YOU WILL SEE THAT SUPPORT SOCIAL EMOTIONAL IS NOT JUST FOR THE STUDENT. IT'S FOR THE STAFF.

FOR OUR FAMILIES WITH INCREASED COUNSELOR, OUR FINAL PILLAR, TEACHERS, WE LOVE TO DESIGN BUT WE'RE ONLY DESIGNING WITH THEM FOR THE SCREAM.

IT'S SUCH A WONDERFUL OPPORTUNITY TO COME BACK AND CELEBRATE ONE OF OUR CORE VALUES IS JOYFUL LEARNING.

YOU OF 8TH GRADERS UP THERE ROCKING PAPER ROLLER COASTERS, 4TH GRADERS DIE SEXTING SQUID.

IT'S GREAT TO BE BACK AND DOING WHAT WE'RE DOING.

THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING ME TO CELEBRATE IN FRONT OF YOU.

I'LL TURN IT OVER TO STEVE. OUR C.E.O. AND SOMETIMES CROSSING GUARD IF YOU ARE OUT IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD IN THE MORNING TO TALK FINANCES.

>> ALWAYS A HARD SHOW TO FOLLOW.

I MUST SAY. SO IN THIS SPIRIT OF CELEBRATION, I WOULD LIKE TO CELEBRATE A FEW FOLKS.

IT SEEMS THE SLIDE -- THE FOREIGN SIZE KEEPS GETTING SMALLER. BUT A SHOUTOUT TO SOME OF THE STAFF HERE WHO WE PARTNER WITH THROUGHOUT THE YEAR. SHARLEEN, MEGAN, JULIE, CRISTA, BACK OFFICE SUPPORT. MARK AND LOUIS, AGAIN JUST TOTALLY AWESOME. AGAIN, PARTICULARLY A SHOUTOUT FOR LOUIS WHO HELPED US IN A LATE SUNDAY EVENING EARLY MONDAY MORNING ON NEEDS WE NEEDED.

MADDY ARE EXPERTS AT WHAT THEY DO.

ROCHELLE, MADDY, A SHOUT OUT AND MALORE AND HEIDI, FACILITIES. LOOKING FANTASTIC.

DUE TO THEM. I'M GOING TO SKIP OVER THE NEXT THING QUICK AND GIVE A SHOUTOUT TO ANGELA FOR HER PARTNERSHIP. I DID WANT TO CIRCLE BACK TO JAVETTA ON THE BOARD AGENDA, SHE IS RETIRING AFTER A NUMBER OF YEARS. A NUMBER OF YEARS HERE IN NATOMAS. I HAVE LEARNED QUITE A BIT FROM JAVETTA. I THINK THE DISTRICT IS BETTER OFF UNDER JAVETTA'S LEADERSHIP AND WHAT SHE IS ABLE TO BRING. IT HAS BEEN A PLEASURE WORKING WITH YOU. BUT WE'RE HERE TO TALK ABOUT BUGS AND FINANCES SO I'LL GET TO IT.

-- BUDGETS. IT STARTS WITH A COORDINATION OF ACTIVITIES. WE START TO GET INFORMATION FROM THE GOVERNOR'S BUDGET UPDATES, THAT THEY GET CONDUCTED. WE PIECE THOSE TOGETHER WITH SOME OF THE CALCULATORS OUT THERE TO GET THE BUILDING BLOCKS TOGETHER FOR THE BUDGET.

WE THEN PIECE TOGETHER ENROLLMENT PROJECTS IN A. D.

A. AS YOU WILL SEE ENROLLMENT PROJECTION WAS 1,125 STUDENTS.

SECOND INDERKUM IS 1,133 SO A LITTLE BETTER THAN PROJECTED WHICH IS MAXIMUM BUDGETARY STANDPOINT.

YOU WILL SEE SOMETHING ON THE ATTENDANCE SIDE.

WE ALL ANTICIPATED. ALL FELT FOR THIS YEAR.

WAS THE SHOCK TO A.D.A. WE FELT SOLID PROBLEMMIONS THEN

[01:10:06]

SECOND INTERIM IT WAS FLOATING AROUND 92% BUT THE SECOND INTERRUM THE UNKNOWN WAS STILL OUT.

THERE WE BUDGETED THE REST OF THE YEAR AT 92 AND A HALF% WHICH HOPES IT WOULD PICK UP AND IT HAS.

42%, SO A NUMBER OF YEARS AGO STANDING UP HERE IT WAS 30 SOME ODD PERCENT. WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO MAKE PROGRESS. OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS.

YOU CAN SEE OUR ADOPTED BUDGET.

IN THE CENTER COLUMN. THERE THE SECOND BUDGET IS IN THE BLUE HIGHLIGHTED COLUMN AND THE TWO BUDGETS AFTER THAT. 22, 23 AND IT SHOULD SAY 23.

24. NOT 22-24 IN THE LAST COLUMN. I APOLOGIZE FOR THAT.

BUT YOU WILL SEE THEY'RE ALL POSITIVE BUDGETS WHEN THEY WERE ADOPTED. HERE IS A BREAKOUT OF THE REVENUE SIDE MUCH THE HOUSE, WE GET 80% OF OUR FUNDS FROM THE L. C. F. F. OR E. P. A. STATE FUNDING ABOUT 80%.

EXPENSE SIDE ABOUT 80% OF THE FUNDS GO TO SALARY AND RELATED BENEFITS. BUT IT'S NOT ALL ABOUT BUDGETS. ALSO ABOUT CASH AND CASH MANAGEMENT AND CASH FLOW. HERE IN THE FIRST FEW SLIDES THAT LOOK GREEN ON MY SIDE BUT PALE THESE ARE THE ACTUALS FOR THE FIRST FEW MONTHS OF THE YEAR.

AND THEN THE REST OF THE SLIDE SHOWS THE PROJECTED CASH FLOW FOR THE FORECAST -- THE POSITIVE CASH FLOW GOING FORWARD. WHAT IS THAT? OH, VERY LIGHT GREEN. I'LL CHANGE THE COLOR.

I THINK IT WAS BACK IN 2015, 1206 TRUSTEE KAPLAN SAID GREAT TO SEE COMMON LANGUAGE SO WE'VE DONE THAT AS WITH THE OTHER CHARTERS. BUDGET -- YOU CAN MEET OUR OBLIGATION THIS IS YEAR AND ALSO -- WITH THAT I'LL LEAVE IT UP TO, BACK TO YOU WITH ANY QUESTIONS.

>> TRUSTEE KAPLAN. >> THIS IS MY FAVORITE TIME OF YEAR. I GET TO ASK YOU ALL SORTS

OF QUESTIONS. >> WE'RE BACK.

>> WHAT IS THE PUBLIC DOESN'T SEE IS I DO ASK ABOUT YOUR AUDIT PROCEDURES, HOW YOU ARE PREACH REACHING OUT TO PARENTS, HOW YOU BUILD YOUR BUDGET.

SO I DO APPRECIATE YOU GUYS ANSWERING ALL OF THOSE.

AGAIN, HOW ARE YOU ADDRESSING SPECIFICALLY THE CHALLENES THAT ARE COMING WITH SOCIAL EMOTIONAL

BEHAVIOR PANDEMIC? >> I THINK THE KEY RECOGNITION IS SCHOOLS ARE PEOPLE ON PEOPLE BUSINESS.

IT'S NOT A MECHANICKIZATION, THERE IS NOT A LOT OF TECHNOLOGY THAT REPLACES THE HUMAN BEINGS THAT MAKE OUR INSTITUTIONS, ORGANIZATIONS FUNCTION APPROPRIATELY.

SO SOCIAL EMOTIONAL IS INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT FOR THE STUDENTS BUT ALSO RESPONDING TO THE NEEDS OF OUR STAFF IS CRITICAL AT THIS TIME. RIGHT.

RECOGNIZING EVERYBODY HAS BEEN THROUGH SOMETHING THEY'VE NEVER BEEN THROUGH BEFORE AND EVERYBODY NEEDS PERSONALIZED RESPONSE AND SPACE TO PROCESS AND RECOVER. STARTING WITH OUR STUDENTS, RIGHT, THAT'S WHERE WE SHOULD START.

WE INCREASED COUNSELING, INCREASED SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGY STAFF, INCREASED THE M. T. S. S. STAFF, ALSO EXPEND THAT HAD INTO THE HIGH SCHOOL TO MAKE SURE THAT WAS APPROPRIATELY PLACED IN THE HIGH SCHOOL.

WE'VE S. E. L. BUILT INTO OUR DAILY MORNING MEETING K.

5 AND BUILT INTO THE ADVISORY PROGRAM 6TH THROUGH 9TH AND 9TH THROUGH 12.

S. E. L. IS BUILT IN THERE. BUT ALSO BECAUSE WE HAVE ADVISORY IT'S ALSO THE CHECK IN TIME.

IT'S THE CHECKUP, EYE BALL LOOKING FOR WHO NEEDS SUPPORT AND USING THE M. T. S. S. REFERRAL PROCESS TO SAY I THINK A COUNSELOR NEEDS TO MEET OR I THINK WE NEED EXTRA SUPPORT FOR. KEEPING AN EYE ON OUR STUDENTS KNOWING THEM BY NEED FROM THE S. E. L.

PERSPECTIVE IS CRITICAL BUT BEING GOOD LISTENERS TO THE ADULTS IN THE ORGANIZATION. WE'RE LOOKING ACROSS THE INDUSTRY, ACROSS THE COUNTRY AT, AT REALLY DIFFICULT STAFFING TIMES. PEOPLE ARE HAVING TO MAKE A DECISION WHETHER THEY WANT TO STAY IN AN INDUSTRY THAT IS INCREASINGLY POLARIZED AND UNDER ATTACK FOR PEOPLE -- BLAM THEY'RE THEY ARE CANCELLED ON TWITTER.

PEOPLES ARE FEARFUL ABOUT ALL THAT IS GOING ON IN THE WORLD IT'S IMPORTANT TO BE RESPONSIVE.

THE SAME WHICH TO OUR ADULTS AS WE ARE TO THE CHILDREN.

EYE BALL CONTACT. DAILY CHECK IN.

DEMAND WE CALL FOR HELP IF WE NEED T. ENGAGE IN

[01:15:03]

>> BY I APPRECIATE AND YOU KNOW YOU'VE ANSWERED A LOT OF THE QUESTIONS AND WHEN I PUT OUT BUT I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT THAT THE PUBLIC HEARINGS WHAT YOU ARE DOING.

IN THAT REGARD. >> YOU KNOW, AS LONG AS

THERE IS NO TYPOS -- >> THERE MIGHT BE TYPOS ON

MY END. >> YEAH.

>> BUT I WANT TO CALL OUT THAT I DO ASK EVERY YEAR WHAT ARE YOU DOING ON YOUR UNDUPLICATED.

I APPRECIATE THAT YOU SPECIFICALLY TOOK THE CHALLENGE THAT I PRESENTED BECAUSE YOU HAVE GROUND FROM 34.3% IN 2017 TO 42.3 NOW. I APPRECIATE THAT BECAUSE I WANT OUR CHARTERS TO BE REFLECTIVE OF THE NATOMAS COMMUNITY AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE.

I DO APPRECIATE YOU GUYS TAKING ON THAT CHALLENGE TO BE REFLECTIVE IN THAT REGARD.

THANK YOU. >> TEAMWORK MAKES THE DREAMWORK, THANKS FOR BEING ON OUR TEAM.

ANYONE ELSE? >> THANK YOU.

>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH. >> NEXT UP WE HAVE A FEW

WILL THEY BE TAUGHT HOW IT IS OUR DISTRICT HANDLES THIS PARTICULAR CONCERN WITH THEIR CHILDREN AND DURING THE YEAR WILL THERE BE AN AUDIT PROCESS TO ENSURE THAT NO ONE FALLS TO THE CRACKS ANY PARENT STARTED OUT THE SCHOOL YEAR WITH A 504 PLAN IN PLACE EXPECTED TO MEET WITH TEACHERS AND IT DIDN'T HAPPEN AND WE ARE COMING OUT OF THE PANDEMIC BUT THAT IS NO EXCUSE I WOULD LIKE FOR THERE TO BE SOME KIND OF AUDIT TO ENSURE THAT EACH PERSON, EACH FAMILY EACH CHILD THAT HAS TO GO THROUGH THE 504 PROCESS IS MATCHES ARE GOING TO BE A PERSON WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DELIVERY OF THE SERVICES BECAUSE ANY PLAN REGARDLESS OF THE VALUES, REGARDLESS OF THE CONCERNS IS ONLY AS EFFECTIVE AS DELIVERY IS NOT PLAN ALSO BASIC QUESTION I'M SURE IT WILL BE PART OF THE PRESENTATION AND IF NOT I WOULD LIKE THE BOARD MEMBERS TO ASK THE QUESTIONS. THAT'S MY TIME.

>> I AM CRYSTAL DONE THAT HAS BEEN AWESOME TO LISTEN TO THESE ? TONIGHT I WANT TO SEE OUR SCHOOLS FLOURISH AND BEING OUR STUDENTS BEING HEARD WITH ALL THE THINGS GOING ON MENTALLY I HAVE FOUND MOST OF CALIFORNIANS HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IDEA WHAT BILLS ARE BEING INTRODUCED SO I AM HERE TO INFORM ONE OF MY CONCERNS IS WARS AGE OF CONSENT WITH PARENTAL CONSENT WITHOUT PARENTAL CONSENT OR KNOWLEDGE THIS IS TO THE SENATE FLOOR WITH A VOTE AND OFF TO THE ASSEMBLY AS IT PASSES I HAVE A 13-YEAR-OLD CAN YOU IMAGINE MY 13-YEAR-OLD OR 12-YEAR-OLD OR YOU'RE OUT KNOWING THE MEDICAL HISTORY ALLERGIES AND REACTIONS EVEN THE 12-YEAR-OLD NOT MATURE ENOUGH TO UNDERSTAND DRINKING OR BEING ABLE TO JOIN THE MILITARY OR DRIVE A CAR 12-YEAR-OLD HAS TO GET CONSENTS TO BEING IN A TANNING BED BUT THEY WOULD HAVE A VACCINATION A SINGLE MOTHER OF SIX CANNOT AFFORD SNACKS FOR KIDS TESTIFIED OPPOSITION AT A HEARING LAST WEEK HER 13-YEAR-OLD SON WAS BROUGHT PIZZA IN EXCHANGE FOR FORGING HER SIGNATURE TO GET A VACCINATION IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA HER SON HAS A BLEEDING DISORDER AND ASTHMA.

IF YOU WOULD STAND UP FOR OUR RIGHTS AND FOR CHILDREN'S RIGHTS AS WELL. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

[01:50:04]

>> I WANT TO ECHO IT HAS BEEN NICE TO HEAR THE WONDERFUL THINGS HAPPENING AT THE UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT I CAN SAY THAT THOSE PEOPLE HAVE NO IDEA ABOUT THE CURRENT BILLS THAT WOULD STRIP PARENTS RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS SB 1184 WOULD PREVENT HEALTH INSURANCE TO DISCLOSE CHILDREN'S PERSONAL INFORMATION JUST WILL WITHOUT PARENTAL CONSENT AB 1797 CREATES AN IMMUNIZATION TRACKING SYSTEM GIVING ALL AGENCIES ACCESS TO VACCINATION RECORDS AND REQUIRES THAT PATIENTS AND CLIENTS RAISE ? BE DISCLOSED IN RECORD SHARING WHICH MAY LEAD TO AN INCREASE IN RACIAL DISPARITIES SCHOOLS WOULD HAVE ACCESS TO ALL VACCINE RECORDS RATHER THAN THOSE OF THEIR STUDENTS AND IN DOING SO IT ALLOWS THE PUBLIC HEALTH DEPARTMENT ACCESS TO THOSE WHO DO OR DO NOT COMPLY WITH PUBLIC HEALTH ORDERS ARE TWO YEARS INTO THE PUBLIC HEALTH EMERGENCY CURRENTLY ADVISING ? ON WHICH AN EMERGENCY IS.

TODAY AB 2098 WAS HEARD WHICH CLASSIFIES ANTI-ÁUNTRAN9Á OPINION IS UNPROFESSIONAL CONDUCT AND SUBJECT TO DISCIPLINE SO IF YOU ARE A DOCTOR IN SACKCLOTH MASS DID NOT WORK LAST YEAR AND THE CDC ADMITTED CLOTH MASS DON'T WORK THIS YEAR THAT WOULD BE CLASSIFIED AS DISINFORMATION. SCIENCE IS CHANGING AND GUESS WHAT? AB 2098 PASSED OUT OF COMMITTEE AND ONTO THE ASSEMBLY FLOOR TODAY SO WHAT'S HAPPENING TO OUR FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS AND DOCTORS BEING ABLE TO HAVE AN OPINION BASED ON THEIR KNOWLEDGE? THIS IS DANGEROUS MEDICAL TYRANNY.

I HAVE MANIC MANY FRIENDS LEAVING THE STATE TO GET AWAY FROM CALIFORNIA AND I AM ASKING YOU TO WRITE OPPOSITION LETTERS FOR SOME OF THESE THAT PERTAIN TO THE SCHOOL DISTRICT WITH CHILDREN, PARENTS RIGHTS AND APPLY PRESSURE USING YOUR POLITICAL AUTHORITY TO OUR ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES. THANK YOU.

>>. [APPLAUSE] >> AND I HAVE.

[INDISCERNIBLE] >> GOOD EVENING I NAME IS ANNIE K I HAVE TWO SONS ON THIS DISTRICT AT THE THOMIST CHARTER IT HAS BEEN FUN TO SEE MY OLDEST COMPETE IN ATHLETICS AFTER SCHOOL IT HAS BEEN SUPERFUND THIS YEAR I WANT TO ASK THE BOARD TO ADVOCATE FOR THE STUDENTS AND THE CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION I WANT TO GIVE A SHOUT OUT TO THE SACRAMENTO TRUSTEE TO SUBMIT A OPPOSITION LETTER WHICH REQUIRE SCHOOLS TO CREATE LONG-TERM COVID-19 TESTING PLANS AND REPORT TEST RESULTS TO THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH THAT WOULD REQUIRE EVERY GOVERNMENT SCHOOL CHILDCARE CENTER PRESCHOOL AND AFTERSCHOOL PROGRAM TO DEVELOP A PLAN TARGETING EVERY BOY AND GIRL FOR INVASIVE TESTING, TRACKING AND QUARANTINE.

THIS IS GOVERNMENT OVERREACH. THIS BILL IS STILL MOVING THROUGH THE LEGISLATURE AS ? WROTE THE TEST NO LONGER TRACK IT ACCURATELY AS THE STRAINS CONTINUE TO MORPH AS THE COMMON FLU DOES STUDENTS ARE THE LEAST LIKELY TO BECOME SERIOUSLY ILL OR DIE AT AN AVERAGE OF FLU DEATHS PRIOR TO COVID-19 CALIFORNIA NEEDS TO FOCUS ON CRITICAL PROBLEMS INCLUDING POOR ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE. TEACHER SHORTAGE AND A MASSIVE MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS CAUSED BY THESE DRUG CONAN LAWS AND RULES. SPEAKING OF ACADEMICS AND MATTHEW MAY NOT BE AWARE BUT THE DEADLINE TO SUBMIT PUBLIC COMMENTS ON THE REVISED CALIFORNIA MATH WORK IS MAY 16 CALIFORNIA WANTS TO INSERT POLITICS INTO MATH AND LOWER STANDARDS TO BECOME EQUITABLE. CAN WE KEEP MASS JUST MATH? IT WOULD LOWER STANDARDS IN THE NAMES OF EQUAL OUTCOMES THAT CAN HAVE DISASTROUS RAMIFICATIONS YOU CAN FIND OUT MORE INFORMATION. DOES THE NEW PROPOSED MATH FRAMEWORK CONCERN YOU? SHE BE WILLING TO WRITE IN OPPOSITION LETTER AND A PUBLIC COMMENT TO THE CALIFORNIA BOARD OF EDUCATION? I DIDN'T MIND THIS WEEK THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO TO SUPPORT STUDENTS AND STAFF. THANK YOU.
