I WANT TO GO THROUGH IT ALL. I WANTED TO SHOW THAT I DID HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY OF BEING A GUEST IN THE FIRST GRADE CLASSROOM LAST WEK. MY ASSIGNMENT WAS TO DOCTOR FIRST-GRADERS ABOUT WHAT IT IS LIKE TO BE A FIRST GRADER. SO I HAD TO GO BACK IN TIME TO REMEMBER WHAT IT WAS LIKE TO BE A FIRST GRADER ON THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL.

AND ALSO WHAT IT WAS LIKE AS A TEACHER TEACHING FIRST GRADE. I WILL SAY THIS.

I THINK THE TEACHER DID A GREAT JOB OF TRYING TO KEEP THE STUDENTS ENGAGED.

I DID THE BEST I COULD WITH MY CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT SKILLS OF KEEPING THE KIDS ENGAGED WHO I DIDN'T KNOW THEY WERE NEW. AND IT REMINDED ME OF THE HARD WORK TEACHERS PUT IN DURING THE DAY TO NOT ONLY KEEP THEIR KIDS ENGAGED AND FOCUSED, BUT TO KEEP THEM THINKING AND CRITICALLY THINKING ABOUT THEIR WORK AND WHAT THEY ARE TRYING LEARN THAT SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME THAT I WAS WITH THEM. SO THE KIDS, I SURVEYED THE KIDS, ASKED THEM HOW MANY KIDS LIKED LEARNING ONLINE AND HOW MANY KIDS DIDN'T LIKE LEARNING ONLINE AND SURPRISINGLY IT WAS ABOUT HALF-AND-HALF. DIDN'T SURVEY THEIR PARENTS. ANYWAY, IT WAS A GREAT TIME.

>>LISA KAPLAN : THANK YOU. AGAIN, I WANT TO THANK AS WELL TO ALL OUR TEACHERS AND CLASSIFIED STAFF ARE ALL THEY ARE DOING EVERY DAY TO KEEP THE DISTRICT RUNNING IN THE KIDS ENGAGED.

THANK YOU. GOOD EVENING PRESIDENT KAPLAN, TRUSTEES, SUPERINTENDENT EVANS, STAFF AND EVERYONE WATCHING. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. AS ALWAYS, WE ROUND ALL OUR WORK IN DIVISION AND OUR GOALS. TONIGHT YOU CAN SEE ON THE SCREEN WHAT IS INCLUDED.

WILL WALK YOU THROUGH A LITTLE BIT OF THE PAST TO RELIVE STUDENTS ON CAMPUS FOR QUITE A WHILE AND WE WILL TALK ABOUT THAT. WOULD LIKE THE SAFETY ITEMS AND WHAT WE'VE LEARNED FROM OTHERS AND WE WILL MOVE INTO THE DATA AND TRANSITIONAL MODEL AND AT THE END WE WILL ROUND OUT THE DISCUSSION WITH REQUESTED BOARD DISCUSSION AND ACTION.

[00:25:02]

IS NOT A NEW THING FOR US PARTLY EVENTS STUDENTS BACK SINCE JUNE.

WALK YOU THROUGH SOME OF THE THINGS WE HAVE STARTING IN JUNE ALL WAY UP TO NOW.

SO THE NEXT SLIDE PARIS STARTED WITH ATHLETIC COHORTS ALTHOUGH BACK IN JUNE.

THINGS WERE EVOLVING, BUT WE DID HAD KIDS BACK IN CAMPUS FOLLOWING SAFETY PROTOCOLS.

IN AUGUST WE ADDED OUR DAY CARES AND OUR DAY CAMPS YOU'D BE ABOUT NINE SITES RUNNING THE PROGRAMS SO THAT EXPANDED THE AMOUNT WE HAVE ON CAMPUS. AND THOSE ARE DAILY, STILL RUNNING NOW AND THEY ARE SCHEDULED TO RUN AS OF NOW THROUGH NOVEMBER 20.

AND THEN AS WE MOVE ON, IN LATE SEPTEMBER WE HAD A VERY LIMITED SMALL GROUP COHORTS.

WHAT IS DIFFERENT ABOUT THIS IS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PICTURE STUDENTS WERE IN CLASS WITH NON- STAFF HELPING AND THEN WE HAD TEACHERS ZOOMING IN. WE HAD FIVE SITES EXPANDING THOSE PROGRAMS ARE PUT IN ADDITION TO THE NINE SITES WE HAVE THE DAY CAMPS, IN ADDITION TO WE HAVE ATHLETIC PROGRAMS GOING WEADDED FIVE ADDITIONAL SITES THERE FOLLOWING THE SAFETY MEASURES . AND AND RECENTLY WE HAD ADDITIONAL VALUE TO WE STARTED ENGLISH LEARNER PROGRAMS WITH ONE-ON-ONE ASSESSMENTS WE ARE EXPANDING THAT A SPECIAL EDUCATION AS WELL SO STUDENTS WILL BE COMING IN TO GET ASSESSED IN ORDER TO MAKE SURE THE ONE-ON-ONE ASSESSMENTS HAVE BEEN. AS A REMINDER, WE HAVE OUR SIN LAUNCHING OUR SUPPLEMENTAL PROGRAMS. THAT IS IN ADDITION TO THE REGULAR CLASSROOM INSTRUCTION THROUGH DISTANCE LEARNING RIGHT NOW.

AGAIN, THAT IS ELEMENTARY, SECONDARY AND SPECIAL EDUCATION AND YOU CAN SEE AT THE BOTTOM WHAT IS IMPORTANT TO POINT OUT IS WE REALLY TALKING ABOUT 700 STUDENTS TO BE SERVED THROUGH THIS. UP TO 25 PERCENT IS WHAT THE LIMIT WAS RIGHT NOW, BUT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT 700 STUDENTS. HE SUPPLEMENTAL TYPE OF LEARNING.

>> WE HAD ABOUT 60 TEACHERS THAT VOLUNTEERED TO READ SO THAT CONSIST OF 700 OR A LITTLE MORE. AND AS OF EARLIER TODAY WE HAD, I THINK IT WAS PARENTS WHO RESPONDED 82 PERCENT SAID THEY WANTED TO COME, 18 PERCENT AND TURNED IT DOWN.

WHICH BY THE WAY IS VERY SIMILAR AS YOU WILL SEE LATER ON WITH OUR SURVEY RESULTS ABOUT PEOPLE WHO WOULD LIKE TO STAY IN DISTANCE LEARNING RUN 20 PERCENT AND MAYBE A LITTLE HIGHER. SO JUST INTERESTING FOR THIS WAS PUT TOGETHER A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO AND EVERYTHING CHANGES EVERY DAY IN 2020 AND WE UPDATED INFORMATION.

IT WILL BE BY THE TIME IS ALL SAID AND DONE IF WE CAN FILL ALL OF THESE SLOTS COUNTING THE BUTTOCKS AND TAKE HER, WE WILL HAVE 1400 STUDENTS ON OUR CAMPUSES ACROSS THE DISTRICT.

IF YOU CAN BE DUPLICATES. SAFE TO SAY WE HAVE 10 PERCENT OF OUR STUDENTS IT MAY BE

LITTLE BIT MORE ON SCHOOLS. >> AND SO WITH KIDS BEING BACK ON CAMPUS AND WITH TALKING ABOUT EXPANDING THAT EVEN FURTHER, WE WANTED TO TALK ABOUT SCHOOL SAFETY.

AND WE WILL TALK ABOUT SOME EXTRA CLASSROOM SAFETY ITEMS BEYOND THAT.

THE PEACE HERE IS IMPORTANT TO POINT OUT. WE ARE REQUIRED TO HAVE PLANS IN PLACE HERE NOT ONLY DO WE HAVE A NUSD PLAN FOR THE DISTRICT, BUT WE HAVE SITE INDIVIDUAL ADDENDUM SPIRIT EVERY SITE ARE DIFFERENT WOULD BE OF DIFFERENT FACILITIES, THE OF DIFFERENT UNIQUE NEEDS. AS OF THOSE PLANS ARE DESIGNED TO MEET THOSE NEEDS SINCE THEY ARE NOT ALL COOKIE-CUTTER SITES. OUR DISTRICT PLAN IS ALL POSTED ON THE INTERNET FOR FAMILIES TO SEE. AND ON THE HE WILL SEE WE HAVEN'T EVEN MADE VIDEOS. PRINCIPLES HAVE GONE OUT AND THEY MADE A VIDEO SPECIFIC TO THEIR SITE FOR STAFF AND THEY ALSO MADE A VIDEO SPECIFIC TO THE SITE FOR STUDENTS AND FAMILIES WHO THEY ARE POSTED ON OUR DIGITAL BACK PACKS WHICH EVERY SCHOOL HAS. WE EVEN HAVE OUR PLANS LIKE THE ONES WE JUST TALKED ABOUT.

WE THE SPANISH VERSIONS OF THE PLANS AS WELL AND WE ARE CURRENTLY WORKING RIGHT NOW TO MAKE THE VIDEOS SUCCESSFUL IN SPANISH AS WELL. IS JUST GOING TO TAKE LONGER WOULD WANT TO MAKE SURE IT IS CORRECT.THAT IS HAPPENING NOW AND IT CAN BE ACCESSED.

WE KNOW SOME PEOPLE ARE VISUAL LEARNERS, SOME PEOPLE LIKE TO READ IT JUST DEPENDS, WE WANTED TO DO AS MANY THINGS AS POSSIBLE TO MAKE THOSE AVAILABLE.

AS WELL THROUGH THE SAFETY ITEMS, ENVISION WE ARE COMING TO A SCHOOL.HAT IS HOW WE HAVE LAID OUT THE ORDER. WE HAVE OUR PLANS IN PLACE TO DO YOU WATCH THE VIDEO NOW AS YOU START TO WALK TOWARD THE SITE COME BACK TO SCHOOL AND YOU WILL SEE SIGNAGE THROUGHOUT SCHOOL CAMPUSES. WE HAVE VERY LARGE VERSIONS OF THE SIGNS SPREAD THROUGHOUT CAMPUSES AND FACILITIES AND WE ALSO HAVE MANY OTHER SIGNS ABOUTWASHING HANDS .

THESE ARE THERE AS REMINDERS WITH THE STICKERS AND ARROWS AND EVERYTHING AS PEOPLE ARE

[00:30:07]

THINGS LIKE WASHING HANDS, MAINTAINING SOCIAL DISTANCE ETC..

SCHOOLS ALL HAVE BEEN SUPPLIED WITH CONES, ARROWS, ALL THE STUFF IS BEING EMPLOYED OR DEPLOYED, SORRY, NOT AT THE SITES. ALWAYS THAT USED TO BE DOUBLE WE ARE NOW ONE WAY PUT ALL THIS IS ABOUT TEACHING NOT TO STUDENTS AND STAFF, WHICH IS WHY WE HAVE THE SIGNAGE EVERYWHERE. AS WE MOVE ON TO THE NEXT THING IS YOU ARE COMING UP TO SCHOOL WE WANT TO MAKE SURE PEOPLE HAVE A FACIAL MASK OR FACIAL COVERING ON THE COME TO SCHOOL HERE YOU CANNOT ENTER AN NATOMAS UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT CAMPUS OR FACILITY WITHOUT A FACIAL COVERING. WILL REALIZE IS NOT ALL FACIAL COVERINGS WORK FOR ALL PEOPLE. SO WE HAVE BOUGHT AND PURCHASED A VARIETY OF DIFFERENT COVERINGS. YOU CAN SEE WERE HERE WE HAVE FABRIC MASKS THAT ARE WASHABLE, DISPOSABLE ONES WHO MAY FORGET THEIR FABRIC WHEN AT HOME . CLEAR ONES FOR KIDS THAT NEED THAT IN ORDER TO BE ABLE TO SEE HER WE EVEN HAVE SHIELDS FOR TEACHERS THAT ARE GOING TO BE TEACHING READING SO STUDENTS CAN SEE THEIR LIPS. IF SOMEBODY HAS A PROBLEM WITH THE MASK, WE TRY TO BE THOUGHTFUL AND REALLY BE ABLE TO COVER WHAT OUR STAFF NEEDS AND WHAT OUR STUDENTS NEED IN ORDER BE ON CAMPUS.OU WILL SEE WE HAVE A LOGO MASK.

WE WANTED TO MAKE SURE STUDENTS ARE IDENTIFIABLE WHEN THEY ARE WEARING A MASK IN PUBLIC.

UNFORTUNATELY THAT IS A REALITY THAT WE LIVE WITH AND SO WE WANTED TO MAKE SURE WE PUT THE EXTRA STEP. AND SO WE WILL HAVE THOSE AVAILABLE FOR OUR SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS AND SOME OF OUR YOUNGER STUDENTS WHO MAY NOT LIKE THE LOOK OF A MASK.

>> DOUG, OF A QUICK QUESTION. BACK ON THE MASK PART, FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE PRE-EXISTING MEDICAL CONDITION, IS A FACE SHIELD WHAT WE OFFER THEM FOR BUT SAY THEY HAVE ASTHMA.

IS A FACIAL WHAT WE ARE OFFERING. >> THE ONE YOU SEE THERE IS DESIGNED TO BE WORN LIKE A DAILY ONE AND WE HAVE A DIFFERENT VERSION WHICH IS PICTURED HERE. IS A LOT MORE OF A LIGHTWEIGHT. BUT IF SOMEONE CAN'T WEAR THE MASK BECAUSE OF BREATHING REASONS, WE HAVE FACIAL SHIELDS AVAILABLE FOR THE AS WELL AND THE WAY THAT WE DO THAT FOR ANYBODY WATCHING THIS, IF THEY HAVE THE ISSUE THE BEST WAY IS TO CALL THE SCHOOL OFFICE AND LET THEM KNOW THEY NEED AND THEN WE HAVE A LITTLE WAREHOUSE SET UP YOUR SCHOOLS HAVE BEEN SUPPLIED WITH STOCKS OF THESE, BUT WE CAN BRING OUT MORE OF

YOU NEED IT. >> THANK YOU. >> SO YOU ARE NOW AT SCHOOL BUT ALSO WE HAVE TESTING SET UP. WE FREE TESTING SET UP FOR STAFF AND COMMUNITY AND WE ARE CONDUCTING FOLLOW-UP CONTACT RACING. WE ARE ABLE TO TEST STAFFORD WE HAVE TUESDAYS AND REALLY ENCOURAGE PEOPLE TO COME ON OU .

THE THING WITH THE TESTING IF IT IS DONE AT OUR CENTER WE ARE HELP THE CONTRACT TRACING FOR IT DUDE WE ARE IN PARTNERSHIP WITH COUNTY PUBLIC HEALTH AND IT IS GREAT WE WERE ABLE TO GET THIS AT THE SERVICE CENTER. IT'S ONE OF LOCATIONS RIGHT IN THE CENTRAL PART OF NATOMAS.

HOPEFULLY IT IS MUCH EASIER FOR PEOPLE TO ACCESS. AGAIN, THAT IS EVERYTUESDAY .

>> DOUG, IF WE ACTUALLY DO END UP OPENING OUR SCHOOLS, ARE THERE ANY DISCUSSIONS WITH INCREASING THAT? BECAUSE IF THERE IS A FULL DAY, OUR TEACHERS ARE OFF UNTIL 2:00 P.M. ON TUESDAY. SO IT IS LIMITED TIME FOR THEM TO COME IN AND GET TESTED.

HOW ARE WE GOING TO WORK AT POTENTIALLY EXTENDED HOURS WERE MAKING SURE OUR STAFF HAS TIME

TO GET TESTED? >> CAROL AND I HAVE TALKED ABOUT THAT.

IS FOR A STAFF, THE HOURS INSTANCES STAFF WORK RIGHT NOW UP TO A CERTAIN PART OF THE DAY

THAT THEY CAN COME IN AFTER THAT POTENTIALLY, CAROL.>> YEAH, RIGHT NOW THE HOURS ÃWE GO UNTIL 4:00. SO ONE STAFF STARTED TO COME BACK BECAUSE A LOT OF OUR TEACHERS DON'T LIVE IN THE AREA. WE DO NEED TO EXTEND THE HOURS A LITTLE BIT LATER AND WE WILL SHIFT THE SCHEDULE. BUT WE ARE PREPARED TO MEET THE COUNTY HEALTH REQUIREMENTS AND 25 PERCENT OF OUR STAFF WITH THE SCHEDULE WE CURRENTLY HAVE.

ON A ROTATING BASIS. SPOKE WHAT IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW ABOUT TEMPERATURE SCREENING.

WE ARE ASKING STAFF AND STUDENTS TO PRESCREEN AT HOME FOR COVID SYMPTOMS, INCLUDING A

[00:35:02]

HOWEVER, IF SOMEONE FORGETS OR IF THEY JUST DON'T HAVE ACCESS TO A THERMOMETER, WE PURCHASE WHAT YOU CAN SEE THERE WITH THE SILVER STANDARD WHAT LOOKS LIKE AN IPAD AT THE TOP.

YOU PROBABLY ALL SEEN THESE TWO THESE ARE TEMPERATURE SENSORS THAT YOU BASICALLY WALK UP TO AND IT WILL TAKE YOUR TEMPERATURE AND ONCE HE OF YOUR TEMPERATURE READ IN YOUR GOOD TO GO BELOW 100 POINT ONE, YOU CONTINUE ON YOUR WAY. IF FOR SOME REASON WE HAD A BUILDUP, WE ALSO HAVE MULTIPLE SETS OF THESE HANDHELD THERMOMETERS, WHICH ARE TOUCHLESS. SO YOU DON'T ACTUALLY HAVE TO TOUCH THE PERSON WITH IT.

JUST COME HERE, HOLD OUT. AND SO WE COULD ALLEVIATE LINES MUCH MORE QUICKLY THAT WAY

EVERY THEY CAN ALSOBE TAKEN OUT TO THE PLACES . >> DOUG, QUICK QUESTION.

WE KNOW AT THE BEGINNING EVERYTHING WAS DESIGNATED ON POTENTIAL TEMPERATURE.

ARE WE LOOKING AT EXPANDING THAT BECAUSE NOW WE KNOW THERE ARE A WIDE RANGE OF SYMPTOMS TO POTENTIALLY EDUCATE UR PARENTS THAT CAN KEEP THE KIDS HOME THAT OF A COUGH OR CONGESTION OR SORE THROAT. OR GENERAL TIREDNESS OR RUN DOWN.

I THINK IT IS MORE THAT WE TALK ABOUT MORE THAN JUST A GAUGE BE IN A TEMPERATURE.

IS THAT DISCUSSION OCCURRED? >> CAN YOU? >> I WILL TAKE THIS ONE.

YES, THE RECOMMENDATION FOR THE COUNTY PUBLIC HEALTH IS ANY SYMPTOMS WE RECOMMEND THAT THE STUDENT OR THE STAFF PERSON STAY HOME. THERE IS A 72 HOUR PERIOD OF TIME WHERE THEY ARE ASKED TO STAY HOME AND GET TESTED AND THE SYMPTOMS ARE WIDE-RANGING.

COUGH, SORE THROAT, NAUSEA, DIARRHEA, VOMITING, FEVER. THE LIST IS LONGER.

AND ZACH PUBLIC COUNTY HEALTH HAS MADE CLEAR REGULATIONS ON HOW WE HANDLE THAT.

>> THAT WOULD BE CLEARER IF YOU DO ISSUE BENCHMARKS AND DECIDE TO OPEN.WHAT KIND OF THINGS

PARENTS NEED TO SCREEN FOR BESIDES TEMPERATURE? >> IS AND HELP PLAN DOUG WAS TALKING ABOUT EARLIER. IT IS IN THEIR. AND STAFF HAVE GONE THROUGH MANDATORY TRAINING ON WHAT TO LOOK FOR . TO THE LIST CHANGES.

WE STARTED WITH JUST A FEW ITEMS AND IT IS DEFINITELY GROWING.

IS JUST SOMETHING WE'RE NOT HAVE TO STAY ON TOP OF SURE IS MAKING SURE EVERYONE IS AWARE OF WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR. AND BOTTOM LINE IS WE ALREADY HAVE POLICY OR DIRECTION FOR PARENTS ON KEEPING KIDS HOME WHEN THEY ARE SICK.S NOT ABOUT COVID.

NOW WE ARE DOUBLING UP ON OUR EFFORTS BECAUSE WE DON'T KNOW WE WANT TO MAKE SURE WE ARE KEEPING EVERYONE SAFE. THEY SHOULD NOT BE COMING TO SCHOOL.

>> IF A CHILD ENDS UP SHOWING SYMPTOMS, WHAT IS THE PROCESS EACH SITE WOULD GO THROUGH FROM THE STOMACHACHE, VOMITING, COVID, NON-COVID. WHAT IS OUR PROCESS?

>> IF THE STUDENT MAKES IT TO THE CLASSROOM AND HAS NO SYMPTOMS, IT'S A VISUAL SCREEN OR THE TEACHER RECOGNIZES SOMETHING IS WRONG AND THE TEACHER IS ABLE TO DO A TOUCH FREE TEMPERATURE WERE CALLED OFFICER ESCORT THE STUDENT TO THE ROOM WE DESIGNATED THAT EACH SCHOOL SITE. AND THEN WE CONTACT OUR NURSE THAT IS ASSIGNED TO THE SITE TO SIT WITH THE STUDENT WOULD RECONTACT THE PARENT. THIS COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL.

WE MAKE SURE STAFF PERSON GOES HOME. ALL THE GUIDANCE PROVIDED FOR US, WE ARE PREPARED TO IMPLEMENT FOR STUDENTS AND STAFF WHO SHOW SYMPTOMS AND COME TO SCHOOL AS WELL AS WE FIND OUT A STUDENT OR STAFF PERSON IS IN AT SCHOOL AND MAY BE SHOWING SYMPTOMS. WE HAVE A PROCESS BOOK TO PUNCTUATE, IS IT'S STILL CALLED

AN ISOLATION ROOM OR IS THAT POLITICALLY INCORRECT? >> WE CALL IT THAT, YES.

WE SHOULD FIND A BETTER NAME BUT WE DEFINITELY CALL IT THAT. IT'S A ROOM WE ISOLATE THE

STUDENT. >> WE HAVE AN ISOLATION ROOM DESIGNATED IN EVERY DISTRICT BUILDING AND THAT IS WHERE SOMEBODY COULD POTENTIALLY BE SHOWING SYMPTOMS WERE NOT FEELING WELL, THAT IS WHERE THEY ARE ISOLATED UNTIL SUCH TIME THAT THEIR PARENTS CAN

COME AND PICK THEM UP. >> THAT IS CORRECT.> WE FOLLOW UP AND FULLY

DISINFECTANT CLEAN FOLLOWING THAT AS WELL. >> YES.

FOLLOWING THE GUIDANCE WE HAVE BEEN GIVEN, ABSOLUTELY. >> OKAY.

EACH SCHOOL, EACH SITE HAS A ENTRY AND EXIT PROCESS. THEY ARE ALL DIFFERENT BECAUSE THEY ALL HAVE EXITS AND GATES AND THINGS AND THEY'RE ALL LAID OUT DIFFERENT FOR EVEN THE

[00:40:05]

OFFICES HAVE CELL PHONES. WE WILL BE ENCOURAGING PEOPLE TO CALL THE OFFICE WHENEVER POSSIBLE TO DO THIS VIRTUALLY AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. IF YOU DON'T NEED TO GO TO THE OFFICE, WE PREFER YOU: TAKE YOUR BUSINESS THAT WAY. THAT'LL HELP.

WE DO REALIZE PEOPLE ARE GOING HAVE TO GO TO THE OFFICE TO TURN IN PAPERWORK OR TO DO OTHER THINGS WE HAVE THE TEMPERATURE SCREENERS IN THEIR AND WE ALSO HAVE HAND SANITIZE , EXTRA MASKS AND THINGS ARE PEOPLE WHO MAY BE COMING FROM OUTSIDE OF HER DISTRICT AND AREN'T NECESSARILY AWARE OF ALL THE PROTOCOLS AND THE FIRST THING WE WILL COME INTO HIS EXTRA SUPPLIES AND WE WILL HAVE TO WEAR THOSE IN SCREEN BEFORE COMING ON CAMPUS.

>> OUR MEAL SERVICE. THE INTERESTING THING WITH OUR MEAL SERVICE IS WE HAVE SET UP TO BE ABLE TO HANDLE SOME DIFFERENT SCENARIOS. WE HAVE THE ABILITY TO CONTINUE SERVING OUT OUR CAFETERIAS AND ALSO THREE HOUR DRIVE THROUGH AT THE SAME TIME.

IN ADDITION, YOU CAN SEE WE HAVE MOBILE MEAL CARDS. WILL PURCHASES FOR ALL SITES WE HAVE THEM AT ALL SITES. WE COULD POTENTIALLY BE SERVING LUNCH THROUGH MULTIPLE DIFFERENT STATIONS THROUGHOUT OUR CAMPUSES WOULD EACH SCHOOL HAS COME UP WITH A PLAN.

IT IS LISTED IN THEIR SITE ADDENDUM, WHICH IS ON THE DIGITAL BACKPACK.

AND CLASSES WILL GET THEIR FOOD BASED ON THE PLAN. WANTING TO KNOW AT THE BOTTOM, YOU SEE RAINY DAYS WILL HAVE THIS WINTER. BUT WITH THEIR PLANS IT IS CALLED A WHAT TO DO ON A RAINY DAY, WHETHER THAT IS TO GET FOOD AND GO BACK TO THE CLASSROOM OR WHETHER IT IS TO DISPERSE THROUGHOUT OTHER AREAS.

EACH SCHOOL IS SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT. BUT THE POINT HERE IS WE HAVE MULTIPLE WAYS TO SERVE AND SPREAD OF THIS MUCH IS POSSIBLE.

IT DOES MEAN WE WILL BE ALTERING OF THE SITES ALTER THEIR SCHEDULES FROM NORMAL.

BUT THAT IS TO BE EXPECTED WITH THIS. TO PUT TOGETHER PLANS THAT CAN BE THERE AND THEY'RE VERY THOUGHTFUL. ON OUR NEXT USE, THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF ONE. HOW TO RIVERS ELEMENTARY LAID OUT THERE.

DIFFERENT CONFIGURATION OF THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC ETC. IN THE CAFETERIA.

GRANTED THIS IS ONE LOCATION WHERE THEY MAY BE UTILIZING CLASSROOMS ETC..

OR EVEN OPEN SPACE OUT IN THE QUAD AND OTHER AREAS PEOPLE CAN SPREAD OUT FROM YOU SO A RAINY DAY PROCEDURES, THERE WILL BE DIFFERENT PLANS IN EACH SCHOOL. IS NOT JUST LUNCH ON A RAINY DAY THAT WE WONDER ABOUT. IT IS ALSO RECESS. EVERY SCHOOL HAS A SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT THING IN PASSING PERIODS ARE LISTED IN THE PLAN .

BUT RAINY DAY RECESS BEING HELD INSIDE TO USING THE COVERED WALKWAYS DURING THE DAY WERE ALSO JUST WITH LUNCH. TALKING WITH OUR NUTRITION SERVICE TODAY BEEN ABLE TO GO CLASSROOM TO CLASSROOM TO DROP OFF THE MEALS SO STUDENTS AREN'T NECESSARILY HAVING TO GO OUT IN THE DOWNPOUR ARE POSSIBLE SO THAT FOOD DOESN'T GET SOAKED.

WE HAVE A DIFFERENT ABILITY TO DO THAT.>> I WANTED TO CLARIFY IF THERE ARE TEACHERS WATCHING AT HOME THROUGH THE DARK ABOUT ENGLAND CLASSROOMS AND THINGS LIKE THAT.

THE FACT THAT HAVING FREE LUNCH WITH EXIST FOR WE ARE AND ASKING TEACHERS TO GIVE UP THEIR FOOD WITH THEIR LUNCH FOR EACH SITE WILL HAVE ITS OWN PLAN USING A VARIETY OF STAFF TO STEP IN. AND REMEMBER, WE ARE GOING TO GET TO IT IN MUCH GREATER DETAIL. WE ARE TALKING ABOUT AT THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS PROBABLY UNDER HALF ON CAMPUS EACH DAY BASED ON THE PERCENTAGES OF FAMILIES THAT WOULD PROBABLY LIKE TO STAY IN DISTANCE LEARNING ALL YEAR LONG. IN THE SECONDARY SCHOOLS MOST OF THEM ALL BUT DISCOVERY 1/3 WERE UNDER 1/3 UNDER A CAMPUS. WE ARE NOT TALKING ABOUT

SERVING A FULL CAMPUS DAY-TO-DAY. >> WE HAVE RAINY DAYS EVERY YEAR. AND SO A LOT OF THE SIMILAR THINGS YOU WILL SEE IN THE PLANS CONSISTENT WITH A LOT OF WHAT WE HAVE DONE WITH THE RAINY DAYS BECAUSE YOU ARE LIMITED TO SPACE BUT YOU CAN'T GO OUTSIDE. SO THE BUILD OFF OF THOSE .

[00:45:07]

>> DOUG, JUST A QUICK REMINDER. PARENTS OF A LOT OF QUESTIONS BECAUSE I KNOW THIS IS A LOT OF TODAY JUST IN A SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME. THIS PRESENTATION WILL BE OF, BUT A LOT OF THIS INFORMATION IS FOUND IN YOUR STUDENTS DISTRICT,DIGITAL BACKPACK.

LIKE THE HEALTH PLAN, SAFETY PLAN , EVERYTHING ELSE IS IN THE DIGITAL.

>> THAT IS A REALLY GOOD POINT. AND A REMINDER THERE IS A NATOMAS UNIFIED PLAN THAT APPLIES ACROSS ALL SITES. SUMMER CONSISTENT ACROSS ALL SITES BUT EACH ONE HAS THEIR OWN ADDENDUM. FOR EXAMPLE, ONE AREA WHERE YOU WOULD SEE IT DIFFERENT WOULD BE RECESS. THIS IS AN EXAMPLE. YOU MIGHT RECOGNIZE THAT IS NATOMAS PARKS PLAYGROUND. EVERY SCHOOL IS DIFFERENT, BUT ONE OF THE WAYS THEY ARE LOOKING AT DURING RECESS AND THEY PLANNED IT OUT IS WE HAD DIFFERENT AREAS OF THE BLACKTOP ZONED OUTWARD KINDERGARTEN IS NOT INCLUDED IN THIS. THEY HAVE THEIR OWN PLAYGROUND AREA. CLASSES WOULD ROTATE THROUGH DIFFERENT SECTIONS OVER THE COURSE OF THE WEEK OR OVER THE COURSE OF TWO WEEKS. THEY WOULD GET A CHANCE TO BE IN DIFFERENT AREAS. THIS WOULD HELP KEEP COHORTS TOGETHER BUT ALSO GIVE KIDS A CHANCE TO GO OUTSIDE AND GET SOME FRESH AIR AND STRETCH THEIR LEGS ETC. WITHOUT BEING ALL THE TIME. EACH SCHOOL HAS A DIFFERENT LAYOUT LIKE THIS AND IT IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW RAINY DAYS. OBVIOUSLY THAT IS ALTERED ON RAINY DAYS.

THE WE WILL SHOW YOU, WE HAVE TAKEN ACTION TO CLOSE OFF OUR PLAYGROUNDS, OUR PLAY STRUCTURES I SHOULD SAY. AND THE REASON FOR THAT IS IT IS SUCH A HIGH TOUCH POINT PLACE. KIDS RUN IN THOSE AREAS.

GOING TO HAVE A MUCH HARDER TIME MAINTAINING SOCIAL DISTANCE WHEN THEY ARE RUNNING AND USING THOSE IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO EACH OTHER. OFF SIMILAR TO WHAT YOU SEE THERE . YOU CAN SEE JEFFERSON AND THAT WAS NATOMAS PARK AS WELL OR TWO RIVERS THROUGH THOSE ARE TWO EXAMPLES OF WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE. BUT WE REALLY WANTED TO MAKE SURE EVEN THOUGH IT IS TEMPTING, IT WOULD BE REALLY HARD TO GO AROUND AND CLEAN.

IT WOULD JUST MAKE IT REALLY HARD FOR ME TWO FOR EVERYONE SAFETY OF THE ELECTORATE THEY STILL HAVE THE OUTSIDE AREAS AND THINGS WILL STILL BE OUT AND WE JUST HAVE TO MAKE SURE PEOPLE ARE WASHING THEIR HANDS BEFORE AND AFTER AND DEFINITELY BEFORE YOU EAT ANYTHING, WASHING YOUR HANDS AND USING ALL THE HAND SANITIZER WE ARE DISPERSING OUT.

SO CLEANING AND DISINFECTING. WE HAVE HAD A LOT OF EXPERIENC , BUT WE ARE USING THE PROTOCOLS ESTABLISHED FOR EACH COVID SAFETY PLAN IN THE GUIDELINES AND WORKING WITH COUNTY PUBLIC HEALTH. WE ARE ALSO USING DISINFECTANT WIPES EACH.

A CLASSROOM HAS A GIANT TUB, FIVE PETABYTES AND WE HAVE A WAREHOUSE THAT WE SET UP AT THE END OF THE CENTER WITH SOME SPACE WE RECENTLY GOT BACK AND IT IS SET UP WITH ALL OUR COVID SUPPLIES, WIPES, HAND SANITIZERS, ALL THE EXTRA STUFF WE PURCHASED AND SECURED.

WE HAVE ALSO PURCHASED, EARLY ON WE PURCHASED DISINFECTANT MACHINES AND RECENTLY WE'VE EXPANDED THAT WE HAVE DISINFECTANT BACKPACKS MAKING THE ROUNDS.

SO IN SOME CASES WE HAVE MULTIPLE WAYS TO USE A DISINFECTANT MACHINE, WHICH IS WHAT WE ARE DOING AFTER USE WHEN PEOPLE COME THROUGH FOR EXAMPLE, OR SCHOOL BUSES.

IT'S HARD TO GET IN THERE AND WIPE DOWN A BUS. IN LABOR INTENSIVE THAT IS.

THE MACHINES LED TO THE MISTING ARE ABLE TO COVER THAT SUCH A FRACTION OF THE TIME AND DO A MUCH JUMP AND YOU CAN DO WIPING. WE ARE STILL WIPING TOUCH SURFACES LIKE CANDLES AND DOORKNOBS, THINGS LIKE THAT. IN ADDITION TO THE WIPING NORTH TO THE MISTING. WE HAVE SECURED THE TOOLS WE NEED TO DO THAT AND WE HAVE BACKUPS JUST IN CASE. WITH THE USE WE ARE GETTING OUT OF THESE, WE KNOW IF YOU ARE GOING TO BE REPLACED AND SO WE HAVE SECURED SOME BACKUPS. OR IF FOR SOME REASON WE NEED TO GO TO SCHOOL AND DO AN EXTRA JOB ONE EVENING WE HAVE EXTRA MACHINES WE CAN BUT WITH PEOPLE TO GO DO THAT. SO AGAIN, EACH CLASS HAS ITS ITEMS. SANITIZER IN EVERY CLASSROOM. E HAVE PAPER TOWELS AND WE HAVE EXTRAS SOAP DISPENSERS.

WE'VE GONE AROUND AND PUT A SOAP DISPENSER AT EVERY SEAT WE CAN GET TO.

YOU CAN: EVERYTHING BECAUSE THE WAY THEY ARE MOUNTED BUT WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO PUT SUBSTANTIALLY MORE. USUALLY THERE IS A SOAP DISPENSER IF WE CAN AND WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO BE PUT ONE WHERE EVERYTHING CAN DO IT SO YOU DON'T HAVE PEOPLE REACHING ACROSS TRYING TO TOUCH WHEREVER POSSIBLE. THEY ARE NOT ALL THAT WAY, BUT WE'VE DONE A SUBSTANTIAL WITH THAT. HAVE ALSO SECURED A LOT OF STOCK FOR GOING FORWARD. BECAUSE WE KNOW ONCE KIDS RETURN WE WILL START GOING THROUGH THINGS QUICKLY AND WE WILL NEED TO BE ABLE TO REPLACE IT.

[00:50:07]

>> DOUG, WHAT IS OUR CLEANING PROTOCOL? IS IT A DAILY THING.

WOULD HAVE WORKED OUT WITH OUR JANITORS? >> NEVER SCHOOL WE HAVE A LONG BOOK UTILIZING PRINT WHEN A CLASSROOM IS USED. RIGHT NOW SINCE ALL THE STUDENTS ARE BACK, WHENEVER A CLASSROOM IS USED STAFF REQUIRED TO LOGIN LOGOUT IN THE ROOM WILL BE CLEANED. WE HAVE THE DAY CAMPS AND CHILDCARE CENTERS AND THEN WE HAVE THE ROOMS THAT ARE GOING TO BE UTILIZED FOR OTHER PROGRAMS.HOSE ARE BEING CLEANED DAILY AS WELL AS ALL RESTROOMS, ALL COMMON AREAS LIKE STAFF ROOMS, NIGHTLY THEY ARE WORKING DON'T HANDLE SOMETHING LIKE REFRIGERATORS, MICROWAVES.

ALL THAT IS PART OF THE DAILY PROTOCOL THAT GETS CLEANED EVERYDAY LIKE THE CAFETERIA.

ALL THE COMMON AREAS THAT WILL BE USED NO MATTER WHAT. CLASSROOMS THAT ARE GETTING USED TO GETTING CLEANED DAILY. IF A ROOM IS NOT USED, IT'S AT LEAST GETTING CLEANED WEEKLY.

BUT IF SOMEBODY ENTERS AND EXITS THE ROOM AND WE ARE GOING TO INCLUDING IT.

IS QUITE A LABOR-INTENSIVE EFFORT. ONLY HAVE HAD WE KNOW WE HAVE THE EVIDENCE THAT STUFF HAS BEEN THROUGH AND CLEANED AND THAT REALLY HELPS.

>> I APPRECIATE THAT. WHAT IF WE DO REOPEN. AM NOT SURE IT IS POSSIBLE FOR A GENDER TO HIT EVERY CLASSROOM IN ALL OF OUR SCHOOLS IF OUR TEACHERS ARE BACK ON CAMPUS.

WHAT IS OUR THOUGHT PROCESS THERE? >> WE CAN GET THROUGH ALL THE ROOMS WITH THE DISINFECTANT NIGHTLY. WE MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO CLEAN THEM THE OTHER WAY WE WOULD HAVE BEFORE. THE SCHEDULE SET UP AT EACH SCHOOL BASED ON THE ROOMS. WHERE THEY ARE GOING TO CLEAN EVERY NIGHT OF THE HIGH TOUCH AREAS IN THE DISINFECTANT ROOT ALL SCHOOLS HAVE A SCHEDULE AS FAR AS TRASH GET DUMPED EVERY NIGHT.UT AS FAR AS WHICH NIGHT IS VACUUMED AND ALL THAT. WE HAVE AT THE ALTAR AND ADJUST AND AS WE BRING MORE AND MORE CLASSROOMS BACK ON CAMPUS, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO ADJUST WITH THAT. BUT THE DISINFECTANT PIECE WE ARE ABLE TO DO THAT NIGHTLY.

>> OKAY. THANK YOU. >> AGAIN, WE ARE INSTALLING THESE WATER STATIONS THAT YOU SEE. WATER BOTTLE FILLING THREE WE'VE CLOSED OFF THE WATER BOTTLE ÃINTO THE DRINKING FOUNTAIN RIGHT THERE.

WE HAVE DONE THAT BECAUSE WE JUST DON'T WANT, BECAUSE OF WHAT THE MOUTH ON IT AND WE WANT TO AVOID TEMPERED WE DO A THE WATER WATER FILLING STATION SUPPLY AND WATER BOTTLES.

WILL ASK PEOPLE TO BRING THEM HOME . PAPER TOWELS AND ALL THE SINKS.

MOVING ON TO CLASSROOMS. PHYSICAL SPACE WEARE FOLLOWING THE COUNTY GUIDANCE .

THAT IS JUST PURSUANT TO GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENT OF ALL GUIDELINES.

WE DID GO OUT AND PURCHASE A THOUSAND EXTRA DESKS AND THAT IS BECAUSE TRADITIONALLY OUR KINDERGARTEN TOPIC TABLES AND FIVE OR SIX KIDS SIT AROUND THE TABLE BUT I TAUGHT KINDERGARTEN SO I HAVE THE LAYOUT REALLY WELL. IT IS GREAT FOR GROUP WORK.

IT IS NOT GOOD FOR THE REQUIREMENTS THEY PUT IN PLACE. WE DID MAKE THAT EXPENSE AND GO OUT AND BY THOSE WHO WE'VE SWITCHED OUT THROUGH STUFF INDIVIDUAL STUDENT DESKS SO WE CANSPACE THEM SIX FEET APART WE ARE STORING THE TABLES IN THE MEANTIME .

AND WHEN AVAILABLE WE SWITCH BACK TO THAT WHEN THE TIME COMES.

WE'VE ALSO HAD TO REMOVE QUITE A FEW ITEMS IN CLASSROOMS, TEACHERS AND COMING IN AND TAKING UNNECESSARY ITEMS HOME AND HAVE BEEN MOVING THINGS LIKE FILE CABINETS AND OTHER STUFF THAT ARE IN THE WAY THAT NEED TO BE MOVED. THOUGH THINGS HAVE BEEN HAPPENING OVER THE LAST FEW WEEKS TO GET THINGS READY SO WE CAN HAVE AS MUCH SPACE AS POSSIBLE, WHICH TAKES US TO THE . WE HAVE HIRED ARCHITECTS THAT ARE DOING AND DESIGN WITH US. I WILL SHOW YOU A FEW PICTURES IN A MOMENT.

THEY'VE HELPED US DESIGN THE LAYOUTS IN CLASSROOMS WITH THE DESK SPACING, MAKING SURE WE ARE FOLLOWING THE GUIDELINES. THEY ARE ALSO GOING TO BE WORKING WITH US STARTING, THEY ARE BASICALLY ALREADY STARTING THIS. TO GO AROUND AND VERIFY ALL THE GUIDELINES WERE SACRAMENTO COUNTY PUBLIC HEALTH, CDC ETC. THAT NEED TO BE IN PLACE IN ORDER FOR US TO START UP. SO WILL STAFF HAS ALREADY BEEN WORKING DILIGENTLY TO DO THIS WORK, THIS IS JUST ONE MORE OUTSIDE LAYER BUT IS THERE TO HELP US VERIFY.

AND IF THEY SEE SOMETHING THEY THINK WE NEED TO FIX, AND WE ARE THERE TO FIX IT.

IT'S 1/3 LAYER. THEY ARE DOING THIS WORK THROUGHOUT THE STATE IN NORTHERN AND SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA AND IN SACRAMENTO COUNTY AS WELL.

>> ARE THEY HITTING EVERY SINGLE ONE HOUR CLASSROOMS IN ALL OUR SCHOOLS TO CERTIFY WHAT

[00:55:01]

THE CORRECT SAFE NUMBER OF DESKS CAN BE IN THE SPACE? >> WE HAVEN'T LAID OUT.

WE WILL BE VISITING 1 TO 2 SCHOOLS A DAY . YEP.

THE NEXT SLIDE. THIS IS A DRAWING WE DID WHEN WE VISITED DISCOVERY.

THEY HAVE OUR BLUEPRINTS. WE WENT OUT AND MEASURED AND THEY THROUGH THIS UP FOR US AND WE SET THE ROOM UP ACCORDING TO THIS. THEY WILL BE COMING BACK THROUGH. THE NEXT SLIDE SHOWS PARENT SCHOOL BOARD WE HAVE DONE SOME LAYOUT ETC. AND THEN ON THE AN ELEMENTARY CLASSROOM THIS IS ACTUALLY THE BLUEPRINT LAYOUT FOR TWO RIVERS ELEMENTARY SIMILAR TO DESIGN. BUT YOU CAN SEE THE SPACING WHAT IS LAID OUT IN ALL THE ITEMS THEY WILL BE LOOKING FOR AS FAR AS HAND SANITIZER, WHERE

THE AIR PURIFIER IS LOOKING AT FILTERS, ETC. >> A QUICK QUESTION ON THIS ONE. I WANT TO CONFIRM SOMETHING I THINK I READ.

THE SIX FEET SOCIAL DISTANCING WE ARE LOOKING AT IS NOSE TO NOSE, RIGHT?

IT'S NOT AT YOUR DESK TO EDGE OF DESK? >> CORRECT.

ON THIS ONE IT IS CENTER TO CENTER. >> THANK YOU.

>> IN ADDITION TO THE SPACING, WE PURCHASED PLEXIGLASS THROUGH THOUSANDS OF PLEXIGLASS ONES LIKE YOU SEE HERE IN THE PICTURE OF THE TWO DESKS. WE ALSO PURCHASED HUNDREDS OF THE FLAT-PANEL ONCE PAID ANY SCHOOL WILL SEE THEM AT THE OFFICE, YOU WILL SEE THEM WE'VE ALSO PURCHASED ENOUGH FOR EVERY TEACHER TO HAVE ONE OF THE DESK.

WE HAVE ALSO BUT ONCE THE SEPARATE SCIENCE TABLES OUT FOR A LOT OF CLASSROOMS ARE BUILT WITH BUILT IN SCIENCE LIKE PENINSULAS AND THOSE WILL HELP KEEP THE SEPARATION THERE AS WELL. THOSE ARE BEING DISTRIBUTED AND SET UP AND THAT IS ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WILL HELP US CHECK OFF AS WELL. THIS IS TAKEN OUT OF OUR ML YOU WITH OUR TEACHERS ASSOCIATION ABOUT HAND SANITIZER SOAP AND DISINFECTANT.

THE KEY HERE IS EVERY CLASSROOM WILL HAVE THESE THINGS AND THAT IS ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WILL HELP US VERIFY IN ADDITION TO OUR OWN STAFF VERIFICATION THAT OUR STAFF IS IN PLACE AND THE ITEMS ARE. WE'VE SECURED QUITE A BIT OF STOCK AND WE WILL KEEP MONITORING THE. THAT IS WHAT WE ARE LOOKING TODAY.

HERE ARE SOME SAMPLES THAT THOSE OF THE STEPS WAS TALKING ABOUT LIKE WHAT WE HAVE FOR THE WIPES. HAND SANITIZER ISN'T JUST IN THE CLASSROOM.

IT IS DISPERSED THROUGHOUT SCHOOLS ON THE STANDS THAT AS YOU ENTER HIGH-TRAFFIC AREAS LIKE CAFETERIAS OR OFFICES. WE EVEN HAVE PORTABLE WASHING STATIONS FOR THE LITTLE ONES YOU SEE THERE. I HAVE A FEW AT EACH SCHOOL BOARD ORDERED SOME EVEN BACK IN MARCH THAT WE ARE STILL WAITING FOR MORE TO COME SO WHEN THOSE COMES WE HAVE EVEN MORE TO PUT OUT, WHICH IS LIKE YOU WOULD SEE WITH THE PUMP YOU PUMP YOUR FOOT THE WATER COMES OUT SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO TOUCH THE FAUCET. AND THAT IS JUST WE DON'T WANT BATHROOMS GETTING CROWDED.

WE HAVE UPGRADED OUR AIR FILTRATION SIGNIFICANTLY. IT IS A SIGNIFICANT INVESTMENT THROUGH THE FILTERS REMOVE A MUCH HIGHER PARTICLE CONTENT. STANDARD, SCHOOL OR COMMERCIAL FACILITY 50 MAY BE ASKING WHAT DOES IT MEAN. MERV IS A MINIMUM EFFICIENCY VALLEY. AND SO WHAT IT DOES IS IT TALKS ABOUT THE SIZE OF PARTICLES THAT CAN GET THEM. SO WE ARE USING NOW, WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PICTURE, THAT IS TRADITIONALLY FOR HOSPITALS AND OTHER CLEAN ROOM TYPE ENVIRONMENTS.

IT IS NOT LIKE A STANDARD ITEM. BUT YOU WOULD USE IN YOUR HOME, RESIDENTIAL COULD BE FROM 3 TO 4 TO 5 IS A TYPICAL WHAT A HOME WOULD USE. IN COMMERCIAL TYPICALLY IS EIGHT.S A SIGNIFICANT INVESTMENT AND IT IS DIFFICULT BECAUSE YOU CAN IMAGINE THERE IS A RUN FOR WE WERE ABLE TO SECURE THEM AND HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GET THEMINSTALLED .

WE DO HAVE THOSE AND THAT HELPS WITH THAT BACTERIA AND OTHER MICROSCOPIC PARTICLES.

AND THEN ON TOP OF THAT, WE ORDERED 1000 THREE IT IS AN AIR FILTRATION UNIT.

IT IS A HEPA PURIFIER FOR WHAT THIS DOES IS GRIPS THE AIR. IT WILL SUCK IN THE AIR, SCRUB IT AND PUT IT BACK OUT AND IT WILL TURN IT OVER MULTIPLE TIMES FOR THESE ARE IN ALL CLASSROOMS. A LITTLE OVER 600 ROOMS AND OFFICE SPACES WE HAVE EXTRAS

[01:00:07]

INVESTMENT AGAIN. >> WHAT IS THE EFFECTIVE RANGE OF THAT MACHINE?

>> MACHINE THAT WOULD TURN OVER FIVE OR SIX TIMES THROUGHOUT THE DAY.

>> THANK YOU. THAT IS ON TOP OF THE REGULAR HVAC SYSTEM FILTERS.

>> AND THAT IS GENERALLY Ã SORRY. THAT IS GENERALLY 920 SQUARE

FEET OR 970 SQUARE FEET? >> 960 IS TYPICAL OF A PORTABLE OR A REGULAR CLASSROOM.

EXACTLY. SO ON TOP OF ALL OF WHAT WE HAVE DONE, WE WERE ABLE TO PARTICIPATE IN A ROUNDTABLE WITH A BROAD IN SOME DISTRICTS FROM OUR AREA AND FROM OUTSIDE THE AREA THAT HAVE ALREADY TAKEN STEPS TO REOPEN AND THEY SHARED WITH US WHAT WE HAVE LEARNED, WHAT THEY WOULD RECOMMEND ETC. OR NOT DO. AND SOME THINGS THEY POINTED OUT WAS THE PHYSICAL SPACING. IMPORTANT TO HAVE SEATING CHARTS.

WE ALREADY HAVE IT PLANNED FOR OUR BUSES IF YOU KNOW WHO IS SITTING WHERE COMMIT NEWNESS WHEN IT COMES DOWN WITH THE SICKNESS YOU KNOW WHO WAS IN PROXIMITY ETC..

THEY TALKED ABOUT COMMUNICATION AND ALSO TALKED ABOUT THINGS WE SHOULD CONSIDER.

SOME OF THEM ARE DOING AMPM WHERE THEY ARE HAVING THE KIDS COME A.M. AND THE OTHER KIDS COME IN THE P.M. AND OTHERS WERE DOING DAY BY DAY OR A VERSION OF THE DAYS THEY WERE

ALL TALKING WITH THE CHALLENGES MAKING SURE. >> THE ONE THING I CAN TELL HE IS BEING PART OF THIS THAT REALLY STUCK OUT TO ME WAS HAVING THE NUMBER OF LEADERS WHO SAID THE ANXIETY THAT STAFF WENT THROUGH SEEMS TO GROW MORE AS DISTRICTS GREW CLOSER TO OPENING DAY. IS IMPORTANT FOR EVERYONE TO KNOW THAT.

THIS IS SOMETHING THAT THEY REALLY TALKED ABOUT. ONCE THEY ARE IN THE ROOM AND THEN SEEING HOW IT OPERATES AND SEE THE SOCIAL DISTANCING A MUCH LOWER CLASS SIZES, THAT

ANXIETY. >> THIS IS WHERE I STOPPED AND ANGELA HOPES.

WE HAVE ENGAGED OUR STAKEHOLDERS QUITE A BIT. >> CHRIS, JUST BRIEFLY TO RETARD AND DIRECT. AND THINKING BEFORE WE GO INTO DATA, AND DOUBLE CHECK IF ANY BOARD MEMBERS HAVE ANY TECHNICAL QUESTIONS FOR DOUG ORR CAROL SPACING BEFORE WE

MOVE ON. >> I HAVE A QUESTION. AND CHRIS, YOUR COMMENT ABOUT THE INSIGHT THE LEADING UP TO THE OPENING OF SCHOOL. IT SEEMS FOR THE PRESENTATION, IT SEEMS AS THOUGH YOU AND THE STAFF HAS THOUGHT OF EVERYTHING.

YOU COVERED ALL ASPECTS OF SAFETY HEAR FROM THE WIPES TO THE SEATING CHART TO HAVING AN OUTSIDE AGENCY COME IN AND VERIFY WHAT THE ATTEMPT TO TRY TO MAKE THE SCHOOL VERY SAFE.

I'M THINKING ABOUT NOT ONLY THE TEACHERS COMING BACK, BUT I AM THINKING PARENTS DROPPING THEIR KIDS OFF AT SCHOOL. IN THOSE INITIAL DAYS WALKING THE KIDS TO SCHOOL.

CAN YOU TELL ME A LITTLE BIT ABOUT IN ADDITION TO THIS PRESENTATION THAT GIVES A LOT OF INFORMATION, IS THERE ANY OTHER PLANS TO HELPING PEOPLE FEEL LIKE AN ORIENTATION OF SOME SORT? HELPING THEM FEEL COMFORTABLE COMING BACK TO THE SCHOOL SITE?

>> THAT IS SOMETHING ÃIF THAT IS A REQUEST OF THE TRUSTEES, WE CAN FIGURE OUT HOW TO DO AN ORIENTATION. THE VIDEOS, THE PLANS. WE DO HAVE A SERIES OF SAFETY MESSAGES THAT WILL BE CASCADING OUT THE NEXT FEW WEEKS. MOST OF THIS WE HAVE SHARED AT SOME POINT OR ANOTHER. YOU SEE THE PICTURES AND THERE'S AN INTEREST IN DOING

[01:05:04]

YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO LEARN TO LET GO RIGHT AWAY. AND THAT WAS A SHOCKER BECAUSE WE HAD BEEN ALLOWED TO WALK OUR OTHER TWO IN. BUT NOW WE HAD A DIFFERENT PRINCIPAL. AND SO SOME OF THOSE THINGS ARE GOING TO BE DIFFERENT, RIGHT? THE GOOD NEWS AND IS THE CANDOR STUDENTS HAVE ALREADY MET THEIR TEACHER AND MULTIPLE ONLINE SO IT IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT. BUT WE ARE GOING TO HAVE TO MAKE SOME ADJUSTMENTS BECAUSE

IT IS STILL A CONTAGIOUS VIRUS. >> CHRIS, I WOULD JUST LIKE TO ECHO WHAT TRUSTEE HEREDIA BROUGHT UP. MY SITES HAVE DONE A WONDERFUL JOB OF DOING VIDEOS OF SAFETY FOR EACH SITE, BUT MAY BE A WALK-THROUGH OF WHAT DO YOU DO IF YOU'RE WALKING YOUR CHILD TO SCHOOL. WHAT IS THAT PROCESS, WHAT ARE YOU DOING IF YOU ARE DROPPING YOUR CHILD OFF AT A CAR AND PICK UP. BECAUSE WE KNOW SOMETIMES THAT CAN GET HECTIC. WHAT DOES PICT LOOK LIKE. BEFORE IT WAS ALL HANG OUT AT THE FRONT AND WAIT. AND NOW WE CAN'T DO THAT. WOULD HELP PARENTS UNDERSTAND AND FEEL COMFORTABLE FOR RELEASE. AND DROP OFF.

THERE IS MUCH ONLINE AND DO SO THOROUGH. BUT FOR SOME, I THINK DOING A WALK-THROUGH OR GETTING THE ABILITY TO SEE WHAT THE CAMPUS LOOKS LIKE MIGHT HELP THEM BE ABLE TO GO HOME AND BETTER REINFORCE TO THEIR KIDS ABOUT HERE'S WHAT YOU NEED TO REMEMBER, HERE'S WHAT YOU NEED TO REMEMBER ON THE PLAYGROUND, THESE ARE THE KINDS OF THINGS YOU NEED TO SEE EVEN THOUGH WE HAVE AT THE DISCUSSIONS AT HOM .

JUST THE KIND OF IN TIME SEEING THINGS BEFORE THE ACTUALLY START A LONG-TERM PROGRAM.

SOMETHING TO CONSIDER. >> WILL HAVE OUR TEAM TRY TO TALK ABOUT SOMETHING INNOVATIVE. I WILL BE HONEST WALK-THROUGH MAKES ME NERVOUS FOR SO MANY WAYS. WE JUST PROMISED WE WILL LIMIT PEOPLE ON CAMPUS NOW WE ARE INVITING MULTIPLE PEOPLE ON THE CAMPUS. AND WHILE WE HAVE SMALL COURTS AND ATHLETICS GOING. THOUGH HAVE TO DO A LOT MORE THINKING ABOUT HOW THAT CAN BE

DONE SAFELY. >> I UNDERSTAND. >> ONE QUICK QUESTION IS HOW WE CONSIDERED STAGGERING THE START TIME? HAVING TO START TIMES.

WE DON'T HAVE THE STUDENTS AND PARENTS DROPPING OFF THE SAME TIME AND IT WOULD HELP

POTENTIALLY HAVING LESS. >> WE DID WE HAVE DISCUSSIONS THE SUMMER.

WE HAVE NOT NOW. MOSTLY BECAUSE AS YOU ARE READY TO SEE IN A MOMENT, WHAT WE ARE TRYING TO DO IS CREATE AN ENVIRONMENT WHERE STUDENTS CAN BOTH BE IN DISTANCE LEARNING IN PERSON AT THE SAME TIME. AND SIGNIFICANTLY STAGGERING IT CAUSES EVEN MORE COMPLICATIONS AROUND STAFFING AND PEOPLE AND WHO IS THERE. BUT WE HAVEN'T TALKED ABOUT IT SINCE THE SUMMER. BUT IN DISCUSSIONS TODAY, WE ARE NOT RULING THAT OUT EITHER.

>> BOARD MEMBERS, ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? >>LISA KAPLAN : CHRIS, WHAT IF WE OPEN AND WE SURVEY PARENTS? IS THERE SUCH A THING AS TOO MANY KIDS WANT TO COME BACK, HOW DO WE DECIDE. OR ARE WE ABLE IF WE DO AND 80 WITH OUR K8 TO FIT SPLITTING

THE CLASSROOM? >> THIS WHOLE SECTION IS ABOUT THAT.

THE WHOLE SECTION IS ABOUT HOW WE SHRINK OUR SCHOOLS AND HOW WE GO ABOUT IT.

AND WHAT PARENTS AND STAFF AND STUDENTS ARE SAYING ABOUT DISTANCE LEARNING, WHICH IS A GOOD SEGUE BECAUSE A LOT OF THIS IS DATA THAT WE HAVE INCREDIBLE STRONG 757 PERCENT

[01:10:01]

HASHTAG SORRY NOT SORRY. BUT I WANT THE BOARD TO UNDERSTAND, WE ARE NOT JUST SITTING HERE COMING UP WITH THESE IDEAS, WE ARE CONSTANTLY GETTING FEEDBACK AND HAVE BEEN ALL SUMMER. SINCE JUNE, 10 FORMAL ENGAGEMENTS WITH PARENTS AND FAMILY TO IT WITH DIFFERENT GROUPS OF STUDENTS. SORRY COUNTRY WITH DIFFERENT GROUPS OF STUDENTS AND EIGHT WITH STAFF. THAT IS 18 IN JUST ABOUT 18 WEEKS AND THAT DOESN'T COUNT THE SURVEYS WE DID ON TOP OF THAT, WHICH WAS ANOTHER 2700.

2700 RESPONSES ABOUT ALL THE ADDITIONAL SUPPORTS WE WERE PROVIDING DURING PENDANT.

SO WE ARE NOT GOING TO READ THIS TO YOU. THIS IS FOR THE FOLKS AT HOME WHO WANT TO TAKE A LOOK. THESE ARE EACH OF THE SURVEYS. THIS PAGE AND THEN YOU CAN TURN AND AT THIS PAGE RIGHT AT THE BOTTOM. WE ALREADY COVERED THAT ONE.

THT IS ABOUT 8020 SO FAR IN 24 HOURS THAT ARE BEING INVITED IN THE 2000 STUDENTS WE IDENTIFIED. AS A 1000 OR 2000? SO FAR IT IS ABOUT 8020.

AND WHAT IS NEXT? THEN HERE IS SURVEY AND DATA. THIS OLD MAN NEEDS HIS GLASSES ON TO SEE. WHAT WE SAW HERE WAS VERY INTERESTING IN MANY WAYS.

THE FIRST THING WE SAW 1A ASKED PARENTS FAMILIES. STUDENTS AND STAFF ABOUT KIDS WHO WERE NOT LEARNING OR NOT LEARNING ENOUGH. WHAT WE GOT WAS AN ALMOST CONSISTENT PERCENTAGE. 35 PERCENT PARENTS AND FAMILIES, 33 PERCENT OF STUDENTS, 33 PERCENT OF STAFF. DESPITE THE INCREDIBLY HARD WORK ARE TEACHERS AND CLASSIFIED STAFF AND MANAGERS AND ALL OF US TO MOVE DISTANCE LEARNING AND GET THINGS ACCOMPLISHED AND WE WILL LATER PUT OUT LOTS OF POSITIVES ABOUT THE SURVEYS.

HOW GRATEFUL THEY ARE FOR THE TECHNOLOGY AND HOW GRATEFUL THEY ARE FOR THE WI-FI AND HOW GRATEFUL THEY ARE FOR A VARIETY OF POSITIVE THINGS. THE NUMBER OF STUDENTS ALREADY DOING EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES IN 2 1/2 WEEKS HAS MATCHED THE PERCENTAGE THAT DID IT ALL LAST YEAR. SO THERE ARE LOTS OF POSITIVES. WE ARE UNAFRAID TO SHOW WHAT WE CALL DIRTY DATA. AND SOME THIS IS FLAT DIRTY DATA.

DATA THAT SAYS ONE THIRD OF OUR KIDS ARE FAILING AT DISTANCE LEARNING.

SIEGEL ALL RIGHT, LET'S ASK A QUESTION SLIGHTLY DIFFERENTLY. WE CAN ASK THE STUDENTS THE QUESTION. IT GOT DELETED. WE WILL ASK IT IN SIX WEEKS IF WE ARE STILL IN DISTANCE LEARNING AGAIN. WE ASKED THEM HOW MUCH OF THEM BELIEVE THERE IS ON THE FIRST LINE SOME DEGREE OF LEARNING LOSS.

ANY KIND AT ALL. 73 PERCENT OF PARENTS FEEL THEIR STUDENTS ARE EXPERIENCING LEARNING LOSS. THE STAFF, THIS IS OUR CERTIFICATE STAFF ONLY.

WE BROKE THIS DOWN FOR YOU REMEMBER, 71 PERCENT OF OUR CERTIFICATE STAFF.

THAT IS MOSTLY TEACHERS. SOME COUNSELORS, NURSES AND OTHERS.

MOSTLY TEACHERS, 88 PERCENT OF THEM HAVE SHARED THEY BELIEVE THEIR STUDENTS ARE SUFFERING SOME FORMAL LEARNING LOSS. NOW, JUST LOOKING AT THE TWO MOST INTENSE LEVELS.

THAT IS WHERE IT IS A SIGNIFICANT CONCERN OR A SIGNIFICANT STRESSOR FOR THE TEACHERS INVOLVED. IT DROPS. PARENTS AND FAMILIES AND THEY ARE SAYING IT IS A SIGNIFICANT CONCERN FOR THEM, IT IS 24 PERCENT.WHEN IT IS A SIGNIFICANT CONCERN OR STRESSO , IT'S 39 PERCENT. THAT HUNTING NUMBER OF 73 PERCENT AND 88 PERCENT OF HAVING SOME LEARNING LOSS FOR DISTANCE LEARNING IS IN PART WHY WE ARE HERE TODAY. AND OPEN SCHOOLS AS OF YESTERDAY.

AS WE GO TO THE NEXT SLIDE, WE ASKED FAMILIES WITH STUDENTS AND STAFF ABOUT ASYNCHRONOUS LEARNING. THAT'S A BIG TERM FOR STUDENTS WORKING INDEPENDENTLY ON THEIR OWN THAT IS PART OF THE NEW INSTRUCTIONAL MINUTES ALLOWED IN THE STATE THIS YEAR.

ALSO, VERY CONSISTENT. 52 PERCENT OF PARENTS AND FAMILY SAY THEIR KIDS ARE DOING THEIR INDEPENDENT STUDY WORK. STUDENTS A 55 PERCENT. AND STAFF SAYS 48 PERCENT.

PRETTY MUCH CONSISTENTLY ABOUT 50 PERCENT. BUT SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT AS WE ARE BUILDING OUR SCHEDULE LOOKING FORWARD. THERE HAVE BEEN HYBRID

[01:15:01]

THAT IS WHY YOU WILL HEAR US TALKING ABOUT A DIFFERENT APPROACH.SO I THINK EVERYONE KNOWS WHETHER YOU ARE PART OF THE 18 SURVEYS OR NOT THAT REALLY WE ARE ALL TRYING TO BALANCE THE ACADEMIC LEARNING NEEDS OF OUR STUDENTS AND THE SAFETY OF OUR STUDENTS AND STAFF.SO WE ASKED OUR STAFF, ARE YOU READY TO COME BACK?44 PERCENT OF OUR CERTIFICATE STAFF ARE 100 PERCENT READY OR CLOSE TO BEING READY TO COME BACK.

MORE ACCURATELY, 19 SAID THERE 100 PERCENT READY, TONY SAID THEY WOULD LIKE TO BUT THEY CAN'T TELL US THEY ARE 100 PERCENT. 48 PERCENT HAVE SOME CONCERNS, 31 PERCENT STAY IN DISTANCE LEARNING FOR NOW AND 17 PERCENT DON'T WANT TO RETURN AT ALL.

AND THAT MATCHES SOME OF THE CONVERSATION WE HAVE TODAY WAS AN HOUR IN TRUE LEADERSHIP.

OT SAY THEY GIVE THE EXACT SAME PERCENTAGES, BUT THE IDEA THERE ARE SOME MY WORRY BACK YESTERDAY, SOME SAY AND I DON'T WANT TO COME BACK AT ALL AND THEN A NICE GROUP IN THE MIDDLE. FAMILIES, THIS IS THE LOWEST IT HAS BEEN.

BUT IT IS STILL PRETTY HIGH. 64 PERCENT OF PARENTS AND FAMILIES ARE 100 PERCENT READY OR CLOSE. THEY WANT TO COME BACK. 33 PERCENT 100 PERCENT NOW, 31 WOULD LIKE TO BUT COULDN'T SAY THERE ARE 100 PERCENT SURE, 33 HAVE CONCERNS RETURNING THIS YEAR, 21 WOULD RATHER STAY IN DISTANCE LEARNING FOR NOW , 12 PERCENT DO NOT WANT TO RETURN AT ALL. THAT IS WHY WE GUESSTIMATE A FAIR NUMBER OF 20 PERCENT OR MORE OF OUR STUDENTS WILL CHOOSE TO STAY IN DISTANCE LEARNING WHEN IT COMES DOWN TO IT IN THE END. THEREFORE REDUCING THE CLASS SIZES EVEN FURTHER THAT WE ARE ABOUT TO SHOW YOU. BY THE WAY, IF YOU ARE AT HOME AND YOU ARE DOING THAT DOESN'T EQUAL UP TO 100 PERCENT, THERE WERE A FEW WHO HAND TYPED IN OTHERS.

AND SO WE DIDN'T WANT TO WRITE LIKE 10 OR 12 DIFFERENT INDIVIDUAL TEXTS.

TO THE NEXT SLIDE. THIS IS SOMETHING ÃGO BACK. WE CLOSED MARCH 16, 2020.

FOR WHAT WE SAIDWAS WE NEED TO TAKE AN EXTENDED WEEKEND BECAUSE WE HEARD THE STATE WAS GOING TO COME OUT WITH GUIDELINES . THEY DID ON THE 14TH AND NOW THE GUIDELINES CAN BE MET. ESPECIALLY NOT WITH SCHOOL OPENING UP 36 HOURS LATER.

SO WE HAVE ENCLOSED FOR SEVEN MONTHS. BY SEVEN MONTHS WE RUN A ROBUST SUMMER PROGRAM. WE RUN A PROGRAM FOR ENGLISH LEARNERS, WE RUN AN EXTENDED YEAR PROGRAM AND WE RUN AS SECONDARY PROGRAM FOR CREDIT RECOVERY ENRICHMENT.

WE HAVE A VARIETY OF PROGRAMS. SO FOR SEVEN MONTHS WE HAVE BEEN IN VIRTUAL LEARNING.

AT THIS POINT WE HAVE TO START REALIZING THAT BEFORE WE KNOW IT IT IS GOING TO BE 10 MONTHS OR A YEAR THAT KIDS WILL HAVE ONLY LEARNED THROUGH VIRTUAL LEARNING AND ACCESS.

SO THAT IS A MAJOR CONCERN FOR US IN EVERY SCHOOL DISTRICT. SOME KIDS FALL BEHIND SOME KIDS ARRIVED TO US HALF A YEAR OR A YEAR BEHIND THE DATE A PERSON OUR STAFF AND 73 PERCENT OF OUR PARENTS FEELING LIKE LEARNING LOSS IS A REALISTIC THING THEY ARE WORRIED ABOUT AND EXPERIENCING RIGHT NOW. STAFF IS BRINGING THIS FORWARD BECAUSE WE FEEL IT IS TIME FOR US TO PRESENT TO THE BOARD THE OPPORTUNITY TO IDENTIFY CRITERIA, BENCHMARKS AS WE OFTEN CALL THEM, FOR A TRANSITIONAL REOPENING GIVEN THE CURRENT GUIDELINES, GIVEN THE SCIENCE WE KNOW AND TRYING TO ESTABLISH SOMETHING ALL OUR STAKEHOLDERS CAN UNDERSTAND SO AS WE HAD A BENCHMARK WE ARE ABLE TO COMMUNICATE IT AND PEOPLE CAN LITERALLY SEE A ROADMAP IN WE ARE ABOUT ONE MORE, WE ARE ABOUT TWO MORE STEPS AWAY FROM THAT REOPENING.

SO ON THE THIS IS WHERE WE START TO GET TO MRS. HERRERA WILL TALK TO

YOU ABOUT SOME OF OUR PLANNING IDEAS. >> AS WE ARE LOOKING TO A TRANSITIONAL MODEL FOR STUDENTS TO START COMING BACK TO CLASS IN PERSON, WE WILL TALK ABOUT SOME POTENTIAL CLASS SIZES IN A MINUTE. BUT REALLY THE IDEA THAT THE SCHEDULE THE STUDENTS HAVE BEEN USING DURING DISTANCE LEARNING, WHICH IS A NICE PORTION OF THEIR DAY BEING THE REAL-TIME LIVE INSTRUCTION SYNCHRONOUS INSTRUCTION AS WE'VE BEEN CALLING IT WITH THEIR TEACHER AND THEIR PEERS. AND THEN SOME INDEPENDENT WORK TIME IS A PART OF THEIR INSTRUCTIONAL DAY AS WELL. SO WE ARE LOOKING TO CONTINUE THETEVA MODEL . WHEN WE LOOK AT SOMETHING LIKE THAT FOR STUDENTS, ONE A FOCUS

[01:20:02]

THEIR BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS, YOU'VE HEARD IT. AND WE WANT TO PROVIDE THAT CONSISTENCY OF SCHEDULE FOR STUDENTS, WHETHER THEY ARE IN PERSON OR AS SOON.

I'M GOING TO SHOW YOU SOME EXAMPLES OF SCHEDULES IN A MINUTE TO BETTER UNDERSTAND THAT. BUT A STUDENT CAN BE IN PERSON ONE DAY THERE LOGGING INTO THE CLASS AND INTERACTING WITH THEIR PEERS WHO ARE LIFE WHILE THEY ARE AT HOME IN HIS DISTANCE LEARNING MODEL. THIS CREATES MORE OPPORTUNITY FOR THE ENGAGEMENT IN PERSON.

THAT IS SUPPORTING SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL AND PROMOTING LEARNING.

ONE OF THINGS WE REALLY WANT TO RECOGNIZE IS WE KNOW WE ARE IN A DIFFERENT ENVIRONMENT WITH TEACHING AND LEARNING. WE KNOW IT IS NOT GOING TO FEEL EXACTLY THE SAME WHEN STUDENTS COME BACK ON CAMPUS, THEREFORE WE REALLY WANT TO CONTINUE WITH THINGS LIKE THE OFFICE HOURS WITH TEACHERS. IN THE WAS ONE THING THAT WAS A POSITIVE WAS A REALLY NEW, IT WAS AMAZING HOW MANY OF THE FAMILIES WERE AWARE OF THE OFFICE HOURS THANKS THE COMMUNICATION FROM OUR STAFF. AND THEN JUST BEING A PURSE IN THE ABILITY FOR IN-PERSON CHECKS FOR UNDERSTANDING AND THE IMMEDIATE FEEDBACK. O'SHEA THE SCHEDULES, BUT FOR THE ELEMENTARY NEWS WOULD BE LOOKING BE ON CAMPUS 2 TO 3 DAYS A WEEK THE COHORTS ARE BROKEN UP DIFFERENTLY. WITH 1 TO 2 DAYS PER WEEK. THE IDEA FOR THE BEGINNING IF WE DID TRANSITION TO IN PERSON, WE WANTED TO CREATE A SCHEDULE TO MAINTAIN THE PACING OF THE GRADE LEVEL STANDARDS THEY'VE ESTABLISHED AT THE BEGINNING OF THE.

FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF THE STAFF AS WE LOOK AT THE TRANSITIONAL MODEL, ONE OF THE THINGS WE HAVE IN PLACE IS IF TEACHERS GET SICK OR CONTRACT COVID AS A RESULT OF THEIR WORKING WITH THE DISTRICT, THEIR SICK LEAVEIS NOT CHARGED. THAT IS SOMETHING WE WILL

HANDLE . >> THAT IS FOR CLASSIFIED EMPLOYEES.

>> SO THEN AGAIN, TEACHERS HAVE MORE CONSISTENCY WITH THEIR SCHEDULE WHETHER STUDENTS ARE IN PERSON OR ON ZOOM IN HOPES OF THE LESSON PLANNING. THEY ARE NOT GRADING MULTIPLE LESSON PLANS BECAUSE STUDENTS ARE AT DIFFERENT PLACES THROUGHOUT THE WEEK.

AND AGAIN, IT'S A BENEFIT TO THEM TO BE HELD THE OFFICE HOURS FOR INDIVIDUALIZED SUPPORT. AND BECAUSE THE INSTRUCTIONAL DAY IS SHORTER THAN WHAT IT TYPICALLY IS IN A NORMAL ENVIRONMENT, THEY GET ADDITIONAL DAILY PREP TIME AND THAT HELPS THEM BUT BE BETTER PREPARED AS THEY ARE MANAGING THE DISTANCE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT AND PERSON ENVIRONMENT. ONE OF THE THINGS I WILL TOUCH ON BRIEFLY BUT WE WILL GET INTO MORE. IF WE LOOK AT OUR ELEMENTARY AND K8 SCHOOLS AS WELL AS DISCOVERY HIGH SCHOOL, WHICH HAS SMALLER CLASS SIZES THAT ARE TYPICAL HIGH SCHOOL SETTING, IF YOU LOOK AT HAVING AS A CLASS ROSTER ON CAMPUS AT A TIME COMMITMENT IS FAMILIES CHOOSING TO STAY IN DISTANCE LEARNING ONLY OR, WE WILL GO WITH THE 20 PERCENT NUMBER. IF THERE IS A CLASS OF 24 STUDENTS, THAT IS QUICKLY RT K THROUGH THIRD GRADE. OF 20 PERCENT OF CHOOSING TO STAY HOME, THAT MEANS THERE IS 19 STUDENTS THAT WOULD BE SPLIT INTO COHORT A AND CORE HATE BEING.

SO ESSENTIALLY YOU ARE LOOKING AT BETWEEN NINE AND 10 STUDENTS.

THAT MEANS NINE OR 10 STUDENTS IN A CLASS IN PERSON AT A TIME. THAT IS A PRETTY SMALL CLASS SIZE. IF YOU DO THE SAME THING WAS SECONDARY RIVERA AND CHRIS MENTIONED BEFORE, WE ARE LOOKING AT ALTERNATING THROUGH THREE COHORTS BECAUSE THE SECONDARY LEVEL YOUR CLASSES ARE LARGER. IF YOU LOOK AT A TYPICAL CLASS OF 36 STUDENTS AGAIN USING THE 20 PERCENT BALLPARK NUMBER, YOU WOULD BE LOOKING AT 29 STUDENTS WHO YOU WOULD BE ROTATING THROUGH TO COME IN PERSON ON CAMPUS AND AGAIN, IT WOULD BE LOOKING AT 9010 STUDENTS IN A COHORT. SO 91 DAY, 10 ANOTHER, 10

ANOTHER AND SO ON. >> TO THE COMMENT ABOUT THE DROP-OFF, I THINK IT IS OF THE GOOD IDEA IF IT IS NOT ALREADY IN THE SAFETY PLAN FROM YOU AND I HAVEN'T LOOKED AT THEM IN A WHILE SO I DON'T REMEMBER IF IT IS THERE OR NOT.BUT THE GOOD NEWS IS, IT WILL BE HALF THE SIZE AND ELEMENTARY. AND 1/3 OF THE SIZE AND OUR SECONDARY SCHOOLS.

SO THAT WILL HELP. STILL A GOOD IDEA MAKE SURE EVERYONE UNDERSTANDS ALL THE LET THE KIDS OUT ON HOW TO RELEASE THEM AND HOW TO DO THAT SAFELY .

THIS IS GOING TO SIGNIFICANTLY CHANGE THINGS. FOR EXAMPLE, A PASSING PERIODS, WE ARE LOOKING AT FOR EXAMPLE NATOMAS HIGH SCHOOL HAVING 350 STUDENTS ON CAMPUS A DAY.

[01:25:03]

IMAGINE ABOUT 600 AND COULD CHANGE THROUGH POTENTIALLY ON CAMPUS EACH DAY.ASSUMING ONCE AGAIN THAT 20 PERCENT OF THE STUDENTS WOULD WANT TO STAY AT HOME.

ALL OF THAT SIGNIFICANTLY CHANGES WHATEVER SCHOOLS WOULD LOOK LIKEEACH DAY.

WHICH IS WHY , IT'S PART OF THE REASON WE ARE SAYING IT IS DEFINITELY NOT A FULL RETURN.

IT'S WHAT WE ARE CALLING IT THE TRANSITIONAL MODEL. >> MOVING TO THE NEXT SLIDE.

>> HERE IS WHERE WE GET TO THE FUN. THIS IS WHERE WE HAVE SET UP TIME AND OF COURSE QUESTIONS THROUGHOUT ARE ALWAYS ENCOURAGED ANDWELCOME.

BUT THIS IS A CHANCE FOR US TO LOOK AT A MODEL AND ALLOW SOME DISCUSSIONS.

WE DO HAVE A FORM A FEW MORE THINGS TO SHOW . THIS IS THE CURRENT GUIDANCE LEVEL THROUGH THE COLORS ON OUR SCREEN OR THAT BRIGHT. BUT BASICALLY IT IS PURPLE, RED, ORANGE AND YELLOW. SACRAMENTO COUNTY HAS BEEN IN BED FOR A FEW WEEKS AND IT HAS MET THE REQUIREMENT NOW IN REDWALL STILLS SUBSTANTIAL THAT OUR SCHOOLS CAN REOPEN AS LONG AS THEY MAINTAIN THE STATE AND COUNTY GUIDELINES, WHICH WE JUST SPENT ABOUT 40 MINUTES WALKING YOU THROUGH HOW WE HAVE DONE A GOOD JOB OF PUTTING THAT EFFORT TOGETHER.

A COUPLE THINGS OF NOTE IN TALKING WITH COUNTY PUBLIC HEALTH YESTERDAY.

THE MODERATE, WHICH IS ORANGE. NO SACRAMENTO COUNTY IS AT 2.8 PERCENT POSITIVITY.

AND THAT IS MAKING SIGNIFICANT PROGRESS TOWARD US. THEY HAVE AN ORANGE BY HALLOWEEN. I AM A LITTLE OFF. ORANGE BY HALLOWEEN.

THEY WILL NOT PROMISE IT WILL BE ORANGE BY HALLOWEEN BECAUSE IT REALLY DEPENDS ON ALL OUR BEHAVIORS. ARE WE WEARING MASKS AND ARE WE AVOIDING SMALL GROUP GATHERINGS THAT EXCEED THE LIMIT IN A VARIETY OF OTHER THINGS. BUT THEY DO THINK THERE'S A VERY GOOD POSSIBILITY WE COULD MOVE THE ORANGE LATE OCTOBER, EARLY NOVEMBER.

NO PROMISES BUT THAT IS A REAL POSSIBILITY. AND SOMETHING THAT WAS VERY INTERESTING TO US. AS WE LOOKED AT A METRIC ADDED AT THE STATE LEVEL CALLED HEALTH EQUITY LOOKING TO MAKE SURE THAT TYPICALLY UNDERREPRESENTED GROUPS WHO HAVE BEEN MORE SUSCEPTIBLE TO THE VIRUS FOR A VARIETY OF REASONS INCLUDING A LACK OF HEALTHCARE WERE ACTUALLY ALREADY IN THE ORANGE LEVEL FOR THE METRIC.

IN TERMS OF EQUITY.SO THERE IS A REAL GOOD POSSIBILITY THAT COME EARLY NOVEMBER SACRAMENTO CAN BE RIGHT THERE AT THE CUSP OF ORANGE OR ALREADY IN ORANGE WHICH WOULD BE MODERATE.

NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE.HIS IS THE MORE SPECIFIC, WHICH WOULD BE A LOT EASIER TO READ AT HOME. THAT SHOWS THE TO DONATE POSITIVITY RATE IN THE 4.0 HEALTH EQUITY METRIC. THIS IS JUST CURRENT EVENTS. THE STUFF THAT IS MADDENING FOR HIM I ALWAYS TELL PEOPLE WATCH THE NEWS, READ THE NEWS, EDUCATE YOURSELF.

I AM BEGINNING TO CHANGE MY ADVICE TO MY OWN CHILDREN BECAUSE AND CHANGES.

IN THE UPPER RIGHT CORNER YOU SEE AS YOUR SPIKES IN THE BEARS CONFERENCE IS IMPOSING CURFEW IN MAJOR CITIES. NOT LISTED HERE BUT SHARED EARLIER TODAY, 32 STATES ARE SEEING A RISE IN THE CASES AGAIN.AND THEN AS WE HAVE BEEN HEARING ABOUT A VACCINE AND THINGS ARE COMING, YOU SEE THE WALL STREET JOURNAL PUBLISHED THAT JOHNSON AND JOHNSON WAS FEELING VERY CLOSE TO BE ABLE TO COME UP WITH A VACCINE AND THEY HAD A SIGNIFICANT CURVEBALL THAT IS COST TO THEM TO PAUSE. THE NEW YORK TIMES WROTE ABOUT ONE OF THE ANTIBODY TRIALS TRYING TO BOOSTER ANTIBODIES HAS BEEN ALMOST OVER POTENTIAL SAFETY CONCERNS. WHICH LEADS FOLKS LIKE DOCTOR COUNTY TO SAY THEY DO NOT THINK YOU US WILL GET BACK TO NORMAL UNTIL LATE 2021. FROM A SCHOOL PERSPECTIVE, THAT WOULD MEAN OUR STUDENTS WOULD BE OUT OF SCHOOL IN DISTANCE LEARNING FOR 21 MONTHS.

SO AT SOME POINT WE HAVE TO MAKE THE MOVE BACK INTO SOME FORM OF CLASSROOM LEARNING.

AND BASED ON THE CURRENT, THIS COULD LAST AS LONG AS LATE 202 .

THERE REALLY ISN'T A GOOD TIME. FOR THE RECORD, FLU SEASON AS I HAVE READ IS FROM OCTOBER TO MAY. SO WE GET THIS YEAR SEPTEMBER AND TWO WEEKS IN JUNE WHERE WE WON'T BE IN FLU SEASON. PEOPLE KEEP ASKING ME THAT. WHY ARE YOU DOING IT AND FLU SEASON. FLU SEASON IS ALMOST ALL YEAR LONG FOR THERE ARE CLEARLY POINTS WHERE IT IS HEAVIER. THAN SOMETHING THAT THE APS WILL AS THE AP NEWS RAN BASED ON THE COVETED DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH BUT SO FAR WHERE THE SCHOOLS HAVE OPENED

[01:30:05]

JUST PROBABLY ALMOST A WEEK OLD. SO HERE IS WHERE WE COME TO ACTION AND THEN AFTER THAT THERE ARE SOME SLIDES AND SAMPLES FOR THE TRUSTEES ARE BEING ASKED FOR APPROVED SOME OR ALL THE RECOMMENDED BENCHMARKS FOR TRUSTEES HAVE THE ABILITY TO ADJUST KEY DATES TO ACCELERATE OR SLOW DOWN THE PATH TO REOPENING AND WE WANT PYOU TO KNOW THAT IN ADDITION EVERYTHING WE HAVE ALREADY DONE, FULL PARENT FAMILY STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT STARTS TOMORROW TODAY PATH IS ADOPTED TONIGHT ASKING PARENTS TO MAKE THEIR CHOICE. AND THEN ON THE NEXT TWO SLIDES ÃTHIS YOU WANT TO LOOK AT YOUR SCREEN TO SEE. THESE ARE THE PROPOSED PATHS TO REOPENING.

THIS HAS BEEN COMMUNICATED TO TRUSTEES AND TO THE PUBLIC QUITE A BIT.THIS IS A VERY CONSERVATIVE MODEL BY CONSERVATIVE AND NOT TALKING ABOUT POLITICAL IDEOLOGY, I'M TALKING ABOUT A VERY CAREFUL, CAUTIOUS APPROACH THAT AS OF TODAY, A.K.A. YESTERDAY, SACRAMENTO COUNTY HAS BEEN ABLE TO OPEN SCHOOLS. USING A NUMBER OF WHAT WOULD BE PROPOSED LOCAL METRICS, WHICH IS ONE THIRD WHERE FAMILY AND PARENTS OPTIONS.

WHICH WOULD BE THE SURVEY WE KICK OFF TOMORROW. WE THROUGH THREE WEEKS OUT THERE IS A BUFFER BETWEEN WHEN THE STATE AND COUNTY ALLOW SCHOOLS TO OPEN IN US TO CONSIDER IT BUT HONESTLY, THERE IS NO SCIENCE BEHIND IT. COULD BE TOO COME IT CAN BE ONE. THE CLASSROOM CERTIFICATIONS FOR THE ARCHITECT WERE STILL ON TRACK FOR NOVEMBER 6 FOR THAT. I THINK THAT IS AN IMPORTANT METRIC TO INCLUDE BECAUSE THAT IS AN ARCHITECT SAYING THIS IS HOW A TEACHER CAN RETURN BACK TO THE CLASSROOM SAFELY AND CLASSIFIED STAFF WHO ARE IN THE CLASSROOM HELPING AND STUDENTS ARE MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS.

>> DOUG, IS THAT A HARD AND FAST DAY? I KNOW ARCHITECTS ARE USED TO

CHANGE ORDERS IN THE SQUISHY TIMELINES. >> I WOULDN'T SAY HARD AND FAST, BUT I THINK ALL THE SIGNS SHOW THAT UNLESS WE GET A NEW WRENCH IN THE WORKS THAT WE HAVE THE TIME TO MEET THAT. WE ARE READY TO START DOING CHECK OFFS TO READ THAT GIVES AS A DAY OF SCHOOL, WHICH SHOULD BE ENOUGH. BUT LIKE I SAID, NOT PERFECTLY HARD.UT NOVEMBER 6 IS A GOOD TARGET DATE.SPOKE ONE OF THE OTHER METRICS WE THROUGH IN LOCAL. DON'T EVEN KNOW IF THE BOARD LIKES IT.YOU WILL NOT OFFEND US IF YOU PULL SOME OF THESE THINGS OUT OR FEEL LIKE THERE IS SOMETHING THAT WE MISSED.

THIS IS DID YOU WANT TO WAIT A FEW MORE WEEKS AND SEE IF THE SURROUNDING DISTRICTS THAT OPENED THREE WEEKS AGO, DO YOU WANT THEM TO CROSS THE SIX WEEK COLONEL OR IS THAT NOT EVEN AN ISSUE FOR YOU. AND WE TALKED ABOUT POTENTIALLY A TWO WEEK WARNING THE FAMILY AND STAFF ARE NOT THAT A TWO WEEK WARNING WOULD BE NEEDED, BUT IT WOULD BE A COURTESY.

THIS MODEL WOULD REACH THE STAGE WHERE WE WOULD OPEN NO EARLIER THAN NOVEMBER 30.

HOWEVER, ON THE NEXT SLIDE Ã SOMEHOW THESE GOT MOVED AROUND I THINK.

LET'S MOVE FORWARD TO THE NEXT ÃWHERE IS THE ONE WITH THE GRAY ON THE CALENDAR? KEEP GOING. THERE WE GO. WE BASICALLY HAVE THE SAME THING EXCEPT WE PLAYED WITH SOME DATES JUST TO ALLOW THE BOARD TO SEE THE THREE BUFFER CAN BE TWO WEEKS. YOU CAN STRIKE ONE OF THESE OUT.

WE CAN ACCELERATE AND ASK PARENTS TO CHOOSE. I CAN PROMISE YOU 30 OR 40 PERCENT OF THE PARENTS WILL CHOOSE WITHIN 24 HOURS WITHOUT IS WHAT WE FOUND WITH OUR SURVEYS. THERE WILL BE A BIG CHUNK THAT COMES OUT RIGHT AWAY WITH THEIR CHOICE AND OPTIONS WITH THINK IT IS VERY POSSIBLE TO HAVE THAT DONE AS EARLY AS OCTOBER 26. SO THERE ARE LOTS OF OPTIONS AND IDEAS WE ARE ASKING THE BOARD TO DISCUSS AND PLAY WITH. AND IF YOU DO HAVE ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS, THERE ARE A FEW SLIDES THE MEDIA ACCIDENTALLY MOVED IT DOWN AS I WAS PUTTING ON MY BOOTS OR SOMETHING.

THAT TAKE WHAT MRS. ANGELA HERRERA EXPLAINED AND CHOSE IT IN VISUAL FORMAT ABOUT THE SCHEDULE IF YOU HAVE MORE QUESTIONS ON THAT. BUT WE ARE NOW AT THE POINT WERE QUESTIONS, DISCUSSION AND WHAT WE WOULD LIKE TO LEAD WITH IS A DIRECTION ON THE PATH WITH ALL THESE THINGS MATCHED SO WE ARE ABLE TO EXECUTE YOUR DIRECTION.

>> BOARD MEMBERS, YOU ARE NOW ON. AND WILL TO START IN TRADITIONAL ORDER TO MAKE SURE. TRUSTEE BAINS, YOUR QUESTIONS, COMMENTS, THOUGHTS?

>> TO QUESTIONS THAT I GOT. ONE IS THAT IF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THE SAFETY MEASURES THAT ARE ANYTHING ABOUT A PARTICULAR SCHOOL, SHOULDN'T THEY BE CONTACTING

[01:35:02]

CCS WITH THE SCHOOL SITES? >> ALWAYS START TO WITH THE SCHOOL SITE.

IF THE SCHOOL SITE IS STRUGGLING WITH THE ANSWER OF THE PARENT ISN'T PLEASED WITH THAT, THEY CAN MOVE UP TO CONSTITUENT CUSTOMER SERVICE. WE TRY TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE AT

THE LOWEST LEVEL. >> THE OTHER QUESTIONIS ABOUT THE MASKS IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL . ARE MASKS REQUIRED FOR ALL GRADE LEVELS OR FOR OF THE

SECOND GRADE IT'S OPTIONAL? >> WE ARE RECOMMENDING REQUIRED FOR ALL GRADE LEVELS.

>> THANK YOU. >> TRUST DETOUR INTO. >>SCOTT DOSICK : THANK YOU SUPERINTENDENT EVANS AND DOUG AND ANGELA FOR A VERY THOROUGH PRESENTATION.

I THINK THAT IS PROBABLY OUR MOTTO IN NATOMAS, THOROUGH. I WANTED TO DO SOMETHING I HAVE SEEN US DO THROUGHOUT WHAT I SEE ARE TEACHERS DOING IN THE CLASSROOM IS CHECKING FOR UNDERSTANDING. MY OWN UNDERSTANDING IN THIS CASE.

SO THE PROPOSAL WE HAVE BEFORE US TODAY IS NOT A FIRM DATE FOR REOPENING.BUT IT IS A SERIES OF BENCHMARKS THAT IF ACHIEVED WOULD ENABLE IF WE USE THE FIRST CALENDAR SLIDE DOWN

SCHOOLS OPENING NO EARLIER THAN NOVEMBER 30, CORRECT? >> YES.

>> THAT MODEL ALSO ASSUMES WE WOULD FOLLOW THE AB SCHEDULE FOR OUR PRIMARY GRADES AND ABC SCHEDULE FOR SECONDARY THAT WOULD REDUCE CLASS SIZES BY HALF TO TWO THIRDS DEPENDING ON ELEMENTARY VERSUS SECONDARY. ABOVE AND BEYOND THE STUDENTS AND FAMILIES WHO WILL CONTINUE TO HAVE THE OPTION TO CONTINUE SYNCHRONOUS ONLINE DISTANCE LEARNING WITH THE SAME TEACHER, THE TEACHER BE IN THE CLASSROOM WITH A SMALLER COHORT OF STUDENTS EACH DAY WITH THE

REMAINDER BEING ONLINE. >> THE ONLY SMALL THING FOR DISCOVERY HIGH SCHOOL WOULD

ALSO BE WITH THE ELEMENTARY AND K8. >> WHICH MAKES SENSE BECAUSE OF THE ALREADY SMALL CLASS SIZES AND SMALLBODY THAT WE HAVE . MALLER I SHOULD SAY.

OKAY. THAT WAS THE REALLY IMPORTANT THING TO ME AND THAT IS WHAT I WAS ALLUDING TO EARLIER TODAY, WHICH IS WE ARE NOT REQUIRING ANY STUDENT OR ANY FAMILY TO GO INTO THE CLASSROOM THAT DOESN'T FEEL THEY ARE READY TO. WITH YOU BECAUSE A MEDICAL NECESSITY OR JUST COMFORT LEVEL OR IF THEY HAVE PEOPLE LIVING AT HOME OR THAT THEY COULD POTENTIALLY EXPOSE TO PRESERVE THAT OPTION. BUT AT THE SAME TIME TO REDUCE THE CONTINUED LEARNING LOSS WE HAVE SEEN NO DOCUMENTED BEING ABLE TO HAVE STUDENTS BACK IN THE CLASSROOM. AND SUPERINTENDENT, I THINK IT IS IMPORTANT YOU MENTIONED.

THIS IS NOT GOING TO BE NORMAL CLASSROOMS. IT'S NOT GOING TO BE WHAT IT WAS LIKE PRE-COVID. JUST WITH MASKS AND BARRIERS. IT IS GOING TO BE DIFFERENT.

BUT IT'S GOING TO BE BETTER FOR OUR KIDS. BECAUSE AGAIN, WE ARE PROVIDING

OPTIONS. >> YES, THAT OPTION IS OUR SECOND RECOMMENDATION, OUR

BENCHMARK TO COLLECT OPTIONS FROM PARENTS. >> OKAY.

I RESERVE THE REMAINDER OF MY TIME FOR SUCH TIME AS MY COLLEAGUES HAVE FINISHED ASKING

THEIR QUESTIONS. >> TRUSTEE GARCIA? >>ESTEFANIA GARCIA : I WOULD JUST LIKE TO SAY I SEE HOW HARD YOU GUYS ARE ALL WORKING AND TRYING TO GETUS ALL BACK ON OUR FEET TO ADD LEAST HAVE OPTIONS . LIKE TRUSTEE DOSICK WAS SAYIN . WHETHER THERE ARE OPTIONS FOR CERTAIN STUDENTS.

ESPECIALLY I AM HOPING THERE IS PRIORITY FOR YOUNGER STUDENTS WERE HAVING A TOUGH TIME WITH BUSINESS LEARNING IN STUDENTS WITH SPECIAL NEEDS. SO I AM JUST HOPING THIS ALL GOES WELL AND SMOOTH. MAYBE IT WON'T, BUT I KNOW WE WILL GET THROUGH IT.

THANK YOU. >>LISA KAPLAN : TRUSTEE GRANT? >>MICAH GRANT : I WILL JUST COME OUT AND SAY IT. I SUPPORT THIS. I SUPPORT THIS PATHWAY TO REOPEN BY NOVEMBER 30. ONE OF THE CONCERNS I HAVE ALWAYS HAD.

FIRST IS THE HEALTH AND WELL-BEING OF THE COMMUNITY AND THE SAFETY OF THE COMMUNITY.

BUT RESEARCH SHOWS IF WE DON'T GET BACK SOON TO HAVE SOME NORMALCY, WE ARE AS A SOCIETY

[01:40:02]

AND THAT IS REALLY TROUBLING TO ME. LOOK AT THE SURVEY DATA, THE SURVEY DATA SHOWS PARENTS, TEACHERS AND POTENTIALLY STUDENTS RECOGNIZE THERE HAS BEEN SIGNIFICANT LEARNING LOSS. AND SO AT A TIME WHEN YOU HAVE BLACK WOMEN GOING TO COLLEGE IN RECORD NUMBERS, THAT IS A LOT OF PROGRESS THROUGH THE OF YOUNG BLACK MEN GOING TO COLLEGE IN RECORD NUMBERS. THOSE ARE THINGS I THINK OF AND WHY I THINK WE NEED TO RETURN TO SOME NORMALCY HERE.I THINK IT HAS BEEN EMPIRICALLY DRIVEN, I THINK WE PUT OUT A LOT OF DATA AND WE FOLLOWEDSCIENCE . WE ALSO HAVE TO LOOK AT PEOPLE WHO COME FROM UNFORTUNATE CIRCUMSTANCES AND THINK ABOUT WHAT THEY ARE GOING TO DO WITH THEIR KIDS.

WE ALSO HAVE TO LOOK AT DEPRESSION RATES, WHICH ARE UNFORTUNATELY GOING UP SIGNIFICANTLY. GET CALLS FROM PEOPLE IN THIS COMMUNITY WHO ARE REALLY STRUGGLING RIGHT NOW AND WE HAVE TALK ABOUT THE ROLE NATOMAS WILL PLAY AS A LEADER.

WHILE I'M LOOKING AT WHAT OTHER SCHOOL DISTRICTS ARE DOING, I THINK IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE POLICY AND THE CUSTOMER OF NATOMASUNIFIED TO LEAD FORGET AND THINK WE CAN BE A LEADER IN THE SPACE AND WE ARE DOING THINGS BASED ON SCIENCE. I SUPPORT THIS.

I THINK THE PRESENTATION HAS BEEN VERY COMPREHENSIVE. AGAIN, NO ONE CAN 100 PERCENT GUARANTEE EVERYONE WILL BE SAFE IN COVID, THIS IS A REALLY, REALLY GOOD TRY.

AND AGAIN, THIS IS SOMETHING I SUPPORT. >>LISA KAPLAN : THANK YOU, TRUSTEE GRANT. DID RECEIVE A LITTLE LATE ANOTHER PUBLIC COMMENT.

JOSEPH BARRETT. AND I ACTUALLY WANT TO DO SOMETHING A LITTLE DIFFERENT THAN WE HAVE DONE. MOSTLY WE RECEIVED PUBLIC COMMENTS FOR ITEMS NOT ON THE AGENDA. I THINK IT BEHOOVES THOSE WHO TOOK TIME, I WOULD LIKE TO READ FOR THE RECORD THE COMMENTS THAT WE GOT FROM THE TWO PARENTS WHO DID WRITE US.

BECAUSE NORMALLY WE AS TRUSTEES LISTEN ON ACTION ITEMS AND ASK STAFF QUESTIONS.

I WANT TO READ THE SECOND ONE FROM MR. BARRETT. WE HAVE A CHILD IN HIGH SCHOOL AND A CHILD THE MIDDLE SCHOOL IN THE NATOMAS DISTRICT BUT WE APPRECIATE THE WORK TEACHERS ARE DOING WITH DISTANCE LEARNING, BUT OUR KIDS NEED TO RETURN TO SOME TYPE OF NORMALCY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE BURIED A HYBRID PROGRAM THAT RECOGNIZES THE SAFETY OF TEACHERS AND STUDENTS SHOULD PROCEED. THE INFECTION RATE OR AT A LEVEL THAT ALLOWS US TO REOPEN.

WE ARE CONFIDENT THE SCHOOL DISTRICT AND IMPLEMENT THE NECESSARY SAFETY PROTOCOLS GUIDED BY SCIENCE AND DATA TO PROTECT OUR STUDENTS, TEACHERS AND STUDENTS WITHIN PERSON LEARNING. THANK YOU FROM THE PARENT. OF THE AND ALSO IF YOU WILL GIVE ME THE INDULGENCE, I THINK IT IS IMPORTANT TO READ INTO THE RECORD MR. EARL'S PUBLIC COMMENT THAT WE RECEIVED. AS A PARENT OF THREE SCHOOL-AGED CHILDREN, I ENCOURAGE THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES TO APPROVE THE TENTATIVE RECOMMENDED BENCHMARKS AND CRITERIA. I APPRECIATE THE DISTRICTS APPROACH OF PROVIDING OPTIONS FOR FAMILIES AS EACH FAMILY MUST CHOOSE WHAT IS BEST FOR THEIR CHILDREN.

MY YOUNGEST SON ELI WAS ENROLLED IN TK ADHERENT AND AFTER A WEEK IT WAS CLEAR ZOOM LEARNING WOULD NOT WORK FOR HIM. WE CHOOSE TO SWITCH TO A PRIVATE PRE-K, WHICH MEANS IN PERSON AND IT HAS WORKED WELL. I REALIZE THIS IS NOT AN OPTION FOR ALL FAMILIES DUE TO ITS COST. THERE BEEN NO COVID CASES SINCE THE ESTABLISHMENT STARTED PRE-K DURING THE SUMMER BREAK MY MIDDLE SON JACOB HAS ALWAYS LOVED GOING TO SCHOOL TO LEARN AND SOCIALIZE WITH OTHER STUDENTS THERE DURING LONG DISTANCE LEARNING HE CONTINUED MAKES NOISE AND HAS A DIFFICULT TIME PAYING ATTENTION.

I UNDERSTAND HOW DIFFICULT IT IS FOR HIM AND HE IS TRYING HIS BEST.

HE IS RECENTLY SHARED WITH ME HE DOESN'T LIKE VIRTUAL SCHOOL, WHICH MAKES ME SAD PARIS TO UNDERSTAND EACH FAMILY HAS DIFFERENT RISK TOLERANCE THAT MAY INFLUENCE THEIR BLEAK SOMEONE AMAZED BE SAFE TO RETURN TO SCHOOL. FOR MY FAMILY WE SEE THE IMPACT OF LONG DISTANCE LEARNING ON OUR CHILDREN'S MOOD AND EMOTIONAL WELL-BEING.

WE ALSO SEE OTHER SCHOOLS IN EL DORADO UNFLUSTERED THAT A RETURNED WITHOUT A COVID OUTBREAK. I APPRECIATE THE SAFETY MEASURES IMPLEMENTED BY NATOMASUNIFIED AND PROPOSE RECOMMENDATIONS ON BENCHMARKS TO RETURN TO SCHOOL.

AGAIN, AND ENCOURAGE THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES TO APPROVE THE BENCHMARKS TO RETURN TO SCHOOL.

AM OPTIMISTIC NATOMAS CAN NEGOTIATE WITH THE NATOMAS TEACHERS ASSOCIATION IN OUR COMMUNITY CAN CONTINUE TO FIGHT COVID EFFECTIVELY AND MIDTONE NATOMAS WILL BE ABLE TO REOPEN SOON. KUDOS FOR THEIR UNWAVERING MOVEMENT AND DEDICATION TO THE PANDEMIC. THANK YOU FOR THE PARENTS FOR THOSE COMMENTS.

I ALSO TALKED TO A SIGNIFICANT ABOUT THE PARENTS ÃJUST ASKING FOR THEIR FEEDBACK AND THEIR THOUGHTS ON WHAT THEY THOUGHT ABOUT BENCHMARK QUESTIONS THAT THEY HAD OF WHICH I WANT TO

[01:45:04]

FOR THE CHRISTMAS HOLIDAY? >> THAT'S A FAIR QUESTION. THERE ARE A COUPLE OF THINGS.

I WILL GIVE A PRIOR EXAMPLE. REMEMBER WE CAME BACK FOR A WEEK BEFORE SPRING BREAK ANOTHER PEOPLE CRITICIZED US FOR THAT. AND THE AMOUNT OF THINK IS THAT CAME IN TO GIVE EVERYONE REST AND RECOVERY TIME OVER SPRING BREAK CAME IN RIGHT AS WE ARE HEADING INTO THE FRIDAY. SO I DON'T THINK IT HURTS AT ALL TO COME BACK TO GET REST AND RELAXATION. AS WE HAVE TALKED ABOUT BEFORE, WHAT WE HAVE LEARNED FROM OTHER DISTRICTS IS ANXIETY BUILDS LEADING UP TO THE RETURN. LEADING UP TO A RETURN TO JANUARY I DON'T KNOW HOW RESTFUL PEOPLE'S HOLIDAYS WOULD BE.

THAT IS TWO WEEKS OF ANXIETY BUILDING TOWARD THE RETURN. SO IF WE HAVE GONE OUT AND BENCHMARKED, JUST ONE OUR BEST PRACTICES ON THE OTHER DISTRICTS HAVE SAID ANXIETY BUILDS UP INTO THE OPENING, I DON'T KNOW IF THAT WILL BE A RESTFUL HOLIDAY.

AND THE THIRD THING, WHICH I THINK IS THE ONE THAT MAKES THE MOST SINCE OF ALL OF THESE, WE HAVE FOUGHT HARD IN NEGOTIATIONS TO EXPAND OR INSTRUCTIONAL MINUTES AT ALL GRADE LEVELS. WE TALK ABOUT TEACHING BELL TO BELL, WE TALK ABOUT EVERY MINUTE COUNTING. IF WE HAVE THE DATA B& DISTANCE LEARNING FOR ALL ISN'T WORKING FOR MANY, THAT IS 15 DAYS WE CAN GAIN BACK AT THE NOVEMBER 30 EARLIER IF THE BOARD SO

CHOOSES THAT WILL MATTER TO A NUMBER OF STUDENTS. >>LISA KAPLAN : THINKING.

AND SO WHILE THE DISTRICT IS LOOKING AT THESE BENCHMARKS, WE ARE STILL CONTINUING TO NEGOTIATE WITH OUR TEACHERS, CORRECT? ON WHAT THIS WOULD ALL LOOK

LIKE? >> ABSOLUTELY. AND BY THE WAY, CLASSIFIED.

>>LISA KAPLAN : ABSOLUTELY. 100 PERCENT PARTNERSHIP. SO LET'S SAY WE COME BACK IN HYBRID. HAVE THE OPTION TO OPT THEIR CHILD OUT OF, LET'S SAY I DON'T FEEL COMFORTABLE FOR THEM GOING INTO THE CAFETERIA. AND THEY JUST IN THE CLASSROOM

OR EAT OUTSIDE? >> I DON'T KNOW. THANK YOU FOR SHARING THE QUESTION WOULD I THINK THAT IS THE ONE WE HAVE HAD THE MOST STRUGGLES WITH.

BECAUSE WHAT WE ARE LOOKING AT AS HE SAW EARLIER WITH THE RECESS IS THERE ARE SPECIFIC ZONES. ONE OF THE THINGS WE LEARNED FROM OTHER DISTRICTS OUR STUDENTS WILL COME BACK AND SAY I DON'T THINK IT IS FAIR MY KIDS ARE ÃWE HAVE BEEN IN ZONE ONE FOR TWO WEEKS. THE POOR KINDERGARTEN TEACHER WHO ALREADY IS LIKE WORKING WITH MORE YOUNG CHILDREN HAS TO SAY IT WILL BE YOUR TURN IN TWO WEEKS, RIGHT.

BE PATIENT.OST FIVE-YEAR-OLDS ARE THAT PATIENT.

WELL I WANT TO READ IN ZONE PFIVE. IT WILL BE YOUR TURN IN 10 WEEKS. SO THOSE ARE SOME OF THE CHALLENGES WE FACE, REALISTICALLY. IF IT IS POSSIBLE WITHOUT CROSS CONTAMINATING COHORTS BECAUSE HEALTH AND SAFETY IS THE MOST IMPORTANT, I THINK WE WOULD ALWAYS TRY TO ACCOMMODATE.

IF NOT, ONE OF THE THINGS WE ARE TELLING THE PARENTS IF IT IS APPROVED IN THE SURVEY IS, AS OF RIGHT NOW THE DISTANCE LEARNING WOULD BE PROJECTED TO BE THROUGH THE END OF THE YEAR IF YOU CHOOSE IT. WITH THE CAVEAT THAT THE BOARD HAS THE RIGHT TO COME BACK AND MAKE THAT ADJUSTMENT. THAT IS ACTUALLY HOW IT IS WORDED POORLY IN THE FLIP IS TOTALLY UP TO THEM. IF A PARENT HAS A CHILD COMING HOME GOING ON WORRIED ABOUT GETTING SICK AND FEELING ANXIETY AND THIS IS WORKING, THAT'S WHY THIS MODEL WORKS SO WELL. THE PARENT CAN PICK UP THE PHONE, CALL THE PRINCIPAL AND SAY I THINK WE ARE ROTATING BACK TO DISTANCE LEARNING WHAT IF THAT HELPS THE CHILD EMOTIONALLY AND THEREFORE ACADEMICALLY AND IT SHRINKS CLASS SIZES AND THE NUMBER OF

KIDS ON CAMPUS, THAT DOOR IS ALWAYS OPEN. >>LISA KAPLAN : AND SO JUST TO BE CLEAR, WHEN WHATEVER ACTION THE BOARD TAKES ÃLET'S SAY WE PASS THIS ON A SURVEY GOES OUT, THE PARENT SHOULD UNDERSTAND THEY ARE KIND OF MAKING A DECISION FOR THEMOST PART FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR. BUT IS SUBJECT TO INDIVIDUAL CASE-BY-CASE BASIS , CLASS SIZES, INDIVIDUAL NEEDS AND THAT IS SOMETHING THEY WORK WITH THE SITE OWNED?

>> THAT QUESTION HAS PROBABLY Ã IT PROBABLY HAS A MORE GREAT THAN I WANT.

THERE IS SOME FLEXIBILITY, BUT THERE ISN'T OTHERS. ONE OF THE CHALLENGES WE ARE GOING TO FACE IS WHEN THERE IS BULLYING THAT HAPPENS IN THE STUDENTS ARE IN THE SAME

[01:50:03]

THAT ONE IS A LOT HARDER BECAUSE NOW IF THERE ARE EIGHT STUDENTS IN A STUDENT COMES IN AND A COHORT THAT HAS COVID AND WE HAVE ALLOWED THE ONE KID TO GO HOME AND HANG WITH THE OTHER GROUP 8 FRIENDS, SUDDENLY IT IS SIX INSTEAD EIGHT. I CAN'T SAY TOTAL CLICKS ABILITY. THE SURVEY HERE, IT'S NOT CALLED THE SERVER.

IS CALLED DECISION FROM. WOULD GIVE THAT CONTEXT TO WHATEVER YOU BENCHMARKED DECISIONS ABOUT THE REOPENING WOULD BE TONIGHT. AND EXPLAINS COHORT AAND B .

EXPLAINS COHORT A, B AND C. AND THEN THE STUDENTS GIVE THEIR NAME, THEIR SCHOOL, THEIR GRADE LEVEL AND THEIR CHOICES. STAY IN DISTANCE LEARNING FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE 2021 SCHOOL YEAR. THIS MAY BE REVISITED ON A LATER DATE BOARD RETURNED TO IMPRESS INSTRUCTION TO THE TRANSITIONAL MODEL OUTLINED ABOVE OR INDEPENDENT STUDY WHICH WE HAVE THAT AS AN OPTION, WE HAVE HAD EARLY ON BUT WE DO HIGHLIGHT THAT LIMITS STUDENT-TEACHER TIME. I THINK IS A 90 MINUTES OR TWO HOURS A WEEK.

IT'S REALLY SMALL THAT THEY GET WITH THE TEACHER AND IT CAN BE GROUPS.

60? NO, INDEPENDENT STUDY. >> I'M SORRY, TWO HOURS.

>> TO GET TWO HOURS WITH A TEACHER A WEEK. AND IT CAN BE IN A SMALL GROUP FORMAT. SO IT IS AN OPTION, BUT WE DO ARTICULATE THAT IS FOR HIGHLY MOTIVATED AND HIGHLY SELF-SUFFICIENT STUDENTS. IF THIS MODEL IS GOING FORWARD, THE BEST OPTION IF SOMEBODY WANTS TO HAVE THEIRSTUDENTS NOT BE IN PERSON IS THE DISTANCE

LEARNING .>>LISA KAPLAN : BUT WOULD THERE BE ÃI GUESS TO BE A LITTLE BIT MORE CLEAR ON A POTENTIAL CASE-BY-CASE BASIS OF LET'S SAY I CHOOSE DISTANCE LEARNING BUT THEN A MONTH LATER I SAY OKAY, I THINK I AM READY FOR IN PERSON. WHAT WOULD THAT LOOK LIKE?

>> ACCORDING TO OUR PROPOSAL, THAT WOULD BE A KNOW UNTIL THE BOARD DECIDED TO REVISIT.

THE IDEA BEHIND THAT IS TO MAKE SURE WE DON'T HAVE TEACHERS COMING BACK AND GOING OKAY, I'M TENANT IN KIDS AND I CAN MANAGE THIS INTENSELY THE CLASSES FILL UP.

TO START EXCEEDING LIMITS. AND CHANGE EVERYTHING. AN EXAMPLE OF SOMETHING THE BOARD COULD DO, IT WOULD BE A ROADMAP TO REOPENING, BUT I WANT YOU GUYS TO CONSIDER EVERYTHING. YOU CAN ASK AND REQUIRE TWO MONTHS, SIX WEEKS, EIGHT WEEKS AFTER THE PLANS ARE IN PLACE TO BRING BACK IF THERE'S WITH THOSE KIND OF REQUESTS.

AND AT THAT POINT YOU COULD POTENTIALLY IMPROVE THAT. YOU COULD ACTUALLY DELEGATE THE AUTHORITY SIX WEEKS IN IF IT IS JUST A HANDFUL OF STUDENTS, SUPERINTENDENT AND OR DESIGNEE COULD AUTHORIZE IT. FRANKLY, UNDER THE EMERGENCY POWERS YOU HAVE GIVEN ME, I COULD GO AHEAD AND DO THAT AS WELL. I REALLY THINK THIS ONE IS IMPORTANT IN TALKING WITH HIM OR TEACHER LEADERS. THEY ARE GETTING THEIR GROUP IN DISTANCE LEARNING AND NOW WE WILL SWITCH THEM IN THIS MODEL. WE WANT THEM TO HAVE THE COMFORT AND BE ABLE TO PLAN WITHOUT SHOWING UP EACH DAY GOING THERE ARE TWO MARKETS ON THE CLASS FOR THAT IS WHY WE ARE RECOMMENDING ON BEING VERY DIRECT WITH FAMILIES AND SAYING

THIS ISLIKELY FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR . >>LISA KAPLAN : AND I THANK YOU FOR THAT BECAUSE I WANTED TO MAKE IT VERY CLEAR BECAUSE SOMETIMES PEOPLE READ THINGS AND DON'T NECESSARILY IN HEARING THAT. I THINK IT IS VERY RELEVANT IF THE BOARD DOES MOVEFORWARD ON A PLAN THAT IS SOMETHING WE THEN REVISIT POTENTIALLY OF THE JANUARY BOARD MEETING. I THINK THAT WOULD BE VERY RELEVANT.

BECAUSE WHO KNOWS WHAT THE DATA LOOKS LIKE AT THAT TIME . WHAT METRIC O WE ARE IN, THAT WOULD POTENTIALLY ALLOW FLEXIBILITY. BUT IF WE DO OPEN, WE SHOULD KEEP IT THROUGH THE HOLIDAY. BUT I ALSO FEEL COMFORTABLE IN CERTAIN SITUATIONS THAT YOU HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO WORK ON A ONE-ON-ONE. BECAUSE THERE MAY BE THINGS THAT COME UP THAT I DON'T WANT TO ABSOLUTELY BE A HARD AND FAST NO BECAUSE IN 2020 THERE ARE SO MANY UNKNOWNS. AS MUCH FLEXIBILITY I THINK THERE WILL ALWAYS BE CIRCUMSTANCES TO HAVE THAT. THAT IS SOMETHING I DON'T KNOW, BOARD MEMBERS, HOW YOU FEEL.

BUT FOR ME I THINK IT IS IMPORTANT. THANK YOU FOR ANSWERING MY

[01:55:08]

>> PRESIDENT KAPLAN , CAN I SHARE MY THOUGHTS. >>LISA KAPLAN : DID I TOTALLY

SKIPPED YOU? >> YES. >>LISA KAPLAN : ABSOLUTELY.

I JUST WANTED TO DO IT BEFORE YOU MOVE ON. I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS COMING UP NEXT, SO AFTER LISTENING TO MY TRUSTEES, THERE ARE A COUPLE OF THINGS TO READ AGAIN, THANKS TO STAFF FOR THIS INCREDIBLE COMPREHENSIVE AND THOROUGH PRESENTATION.

SO MUCH INFORMATION AND SO VALUABLE TO ALL OF US. AND THINKS OF THE STRENGTHS I THINK WE GIVE PARENTS. I AM HOPING IN THE COMMUNITY A SENSE OF SAFETY, A SENSE OF COMFORT ABOUT BRINGING THEIR KIDS BACK IS THAT SECONDARY PD , COMING IN AND LOOKING AT AND MAKING SURE WE HAVE DONE EVERYTHING THAT WE NEED TO DO. THINK I MENTIONED THAT EARLIER IN TERMS OF SAFETY MEASURES. BUT I DID HAVE A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS. I'M CONCERNED ABOUT THE STUDENTS THAT HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AS AT RISK FOR ONE REASON OR ANOTHER. IN THE RELUCTANT SEAT ON THE PART OF THEIR FAMILIES NOT TO BRING THEM BACK TO SCHOOL. AND SO I WOULD LIKE TO HEAR A LITTLE BIT OF DISCUSSION FROM STAFF ABOUT THAT. I MEAN, THESE COULD BE STUDENTS WHO ARE REALLY STRUGGLING. THEY STRUGGLED LAST YEAR AND THEY ARE STRUGGLING NOW THIS YEAR. AND LEARNING LOSSES IS VERY REAL FOR THEM.SO HAS STAFF THOUGHT ABOUT ADDING WE ENCOURAGE FAMILIES TO GET THEIR KIDS BACK IN SCHOOL TO HAVE THE CONFIDENCE SO THAT THEY DON'T LOSE AN ENTIRE PLUS YEAR SINCE LEARNING LOSS IS REAL.

I JUST WANT TO ASK THAT QUESTION BUT I DON'T KNOW WHO CAN RESPOND TO THAT.

>> I DON'T THINK I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU THE ANSWER THAT YOU GO THAT'S GREAT.

WHAT IS REALLY NICE IS YOUR CONCERN WAS VOICED TODAY BY OUR ASSOCIATION LEADERS, OUR TEACHERS. AND THEY VERY MUCH WANTED TO KNOW WHAT EXTRA SUPPORT WOULD EXIST FOR STUDENTS BEYOND THE SCHOOL DAY. AND SO THERE ARE A COUPLE OF THINGS. ONE IS THE OBVIOUS THING. WE HAVE SPENT WELL OVER $10 MILLION OR SET IT ASIDE TO DEAL WITH ALL THESE THINGS THAT YOU SAW AND THEN SOME.

THE EXTRACURRICULAR OR WHATEVER. WE WOULD BE DIPPING INTO OUR RESERVES TO EXECUTE ELEMENTS OF THE PLAN. SO MONEY IS DEFINITELY AN ISSUE OF CONCERN IF THE SECOND STIMULUS COMES AROUND, THAT HELPS A TON.

THE SECOND THING IS IF WE WERE TO CONTINUE THE INCREASE IN AFTERSCHOOL SESSIONS, NOW WE ARE CROSSING COHORTS POTENTIALLY. AND THAT DOESN'T WORK FROM A HEALTH PERSPECTIVE. SO THAT LEADS BACK TO THE POSSIBILITY TO CONTINUE THAT VIRTUAL TUTORINGONLINE . WHICH RIGHT NOW WE HAVE TO GROW.

THERE IS 350 OR SO USING THAT A WEEK? >> YES.

THAT'S AVERAGE, YES. >> WHICH IS NICE, BUT I MEAN, THAT'S NOT GOING TO PUT IN A DENT ON 1/3 OF EACH OF OUR STAKEHOLDER GROUPS SAY WE ARE STRUGGLING.

SO I THINK THAT IS STILL, ANY HYBRID OR TRANSITIONAL PROGRAM THAT DOESN'T JUST ALLOW KIDS TO BE ON INDEPENDENT LEARNING EVERY OTHER DAY I THINK IS BETTER THAN DISTANCE LEARNING ALONE. BUT THIS IS JUST A TRANSITIONAL STEP UNTIL US GETTING BACK TO NORMAL. BUT I THINK THIS WILL ALLOW US ÃI HAVE HEARD A LOT OF STORIES OF I'M REALLY TIRED TEACHING TO A SCREEN OF NAMES WITH BLACK BOXES.

AND REALLY TIRED OF NOT KNOWING IF MY STUDENTS ARE REALLY GETTING IT OR NOT.

I HAVE HEARD TEACHERS SAY I DON'T KNOW IF LIKE IT IS GOING TO GET IT WITH THE MASK ON BECAUSE NORMALLY CAN TELL IF THEY ARE SMILING OR WHATEVER. I THINK WE WILL LEARN A NEW SKILL AND LEARN HOW TO READ PEOPLES EYES AND IF KIDS ARE CONFUSED AND ARE GETTING IN THE CLASSROOM, THAT IS A LOT HARDER TO DO IF THE SCREEN IS BREAKING IN NO AND WERE THERE IS A BLACK

[02:00:06]

MOST OF OUR INTELLECTUAL CAPITAL HAS BEEN WORKING ON ALL OF THIS THAT YOU HAVE SEEN.

I THINK ONCE WE GET THIS BACK INTO PLACE AND THINGS LIKE OUR DAYCARE AND DAIRY CAMPS FADE AWAY BECAUSE THEY HAVE SUNSET DATES AND OF THINGS, WE CAN GET OUR BRAINS WORKING ON NOW THAT WE HAVE STUDENTS BACK IN TRANSITIONAL PROGRAMS, WHAT ELSE CAN WE DO TO HELP KIDS.

BECAUSE AROUND HERE WE DON'T STAND FLAT-FOOTED FOR LONG. >> OKAY.

THAT PARTICULAR GROUP, OR VULNERABLE STUDENTS WILL ALWAYS REMAIN A CONCERN OF MINE.

AND I KNOW THE DISTRICT HAS DONE A LOT TO SUPPORT THE VULNERABLE STUDENTS.

. SO THE OTHER THING IS THE EMOTIONAL SUPPORT OF COMING BACK TO SCHOOL. I WONDER IF YOU CAN TALK TO ME A LITTLE BIT ABOUT WHEN TEACHERS ACTUALLY COME BACK TO SCHOOL AND THE KIDS COME BACK TO SCHOOL, WHERE THERE BE A TIME WHEN THEY GET TO TALK ABOUT WHAT IT IS LIKE TO BE BACK AT SCHOOL.

AND INSTEAD OF DAY ONE OPENING YOUR BOOKS. BUT IS THERE THOUGHT ABOUT HOW DO WE TRANSITION TO TALK ABOUT. WHAT SOME OF THEIR CONCERNS. THEY HAVEN'T BEEN ON A SCHOOL CAMPUS. HOW DO WE FEEL ABOUT THINGS BEING DIFFERENT ORGAN WHICH WE HAVE HEARD FROM PRIVATE SCHOOLS IN OTHER DISTRICTS THAT THEY TAKE A DAY OR TO AND GET ACCLIMATEDTO THE PROCESSES, GET A CHANCE TO TALK , BUILD A DIFFERENT KIND OF CONNECTION.

ON THE PLUS SIDE, STUDENTS HAVE SEEN THE FACE AND THE VOICE AND KINDA KNOW SOME OF THE EXPECTATIONS OF THE TEACHER. BUT THEY ALSO HAVEN'T DONE IT IN CLASS.

I CAN'T SPEAK FOR OUR TEACHERS ASSOCIATION, BUT I THINK THEY WOULD BE POSITIVE.

ARE NOT GOING TO PROMISE BUT I THINK THEY WOULD BE POSITIVE TOWARD HAVING A COUPLE OF DAYS OF A TRANSITION TIME WHERE WE WERE FOCUSING ON EVERYONE'S WELLNESS AND GETTING INTO THE NEW HABITS. AS OPPOSED TO JUST PICKING UP THE READER IN READING A NONFICTION DEPOSITORY CHAPTER IS THAT WHAT I AM HEARING TOO? IS THAT SOMETHING YOU ARE

INTERESTED IN US PURSUING? >> I AM INTERESTED. BECAUSE I THINK THAT EMOTIONAL WELL-BEING AND REORIENTING LIKE THIS IS HOW YOUR PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE WITH SCHOOL.

NOW HERE IS TODAY'S EXPERIENCES LIKE. AND I THINK FOR SOME KIDS, IT'S GOING TO TAKE A WHILE FOR THEM TO BE JUST TO GET INTO HABITS. NEW HABITS.

AND IT IS PROBABLY GOING TO FEEL LIKE SOME IS A RESTRICTION IN TERMS OF WHAT THEY ARE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT IS LIKE COMPARED TO PREVIOUS YEARS. SO I THINK IT IS IMPORTANT THAT TIME IS SPENT DOING THAT. AND THE OTHER THING IS ABOUT BUFFER.

FIRST OF ALL, LIKE THE TWO WEEK NOTIFICATION TO PARENTS ON THIS PROPOSED PLAN, I THINK THAT IS APPROPRIATE. AND GIVES THEM TIME. ESPECIALLY DAY ONE WE LET THEM KNOW TWO WEEKS THIS IS WHAT IS HAPPENING. BUT THE BUFFER OF TWO WEEKS VERSUS THREE WEEKS. WAS THERE ANYTHING YOU WANTED TO SHARE WITH US THAT WE MIGHT

WANT TO CONSIDER IN TERMS OF THAT TWO WEEKS VERSUS THREE WEEKS?>> NO, THERE WAS NO SCIENCE BEHIND THAT AT ALL. THAT GETS US TO NOVEMBER 30. THANKSGIVING IS THE WEEK BEFORE THE 30TH. THANKSGIVING BREAK.O I THINK THAT IS PROBABLY PART OF WHY IT IS POTENTIALLY THREE WEEKS. OTHERWISE THERE IS THE POTENTIAL THAT WE ARE BRINGING STUDENTS BACK A WEEK BEFORE THANKSGIVING. WHICH ONCE AGAIN WOULD BE MORE WHAT WE DID BEFORE SPRING BREAK. SO THAT IS NOT EIGHT NEGATIVE.

>> AND I SUPPORT THE IDEA THAT WHEN FAMILIES MAKE AN AGREEMENT IN TERMS OF IDENTIFY A PLAN IN TERMS OF WHETHER THEY WANT THEIR CHILDREN, THEIR OWN KIDS TO STAY HOME OR TO GO BACK TO SCHOOL, I SUPPORT THE NOTION THAT WE NEED TO REALLY FOLLOW WHAT THEY SAY AND STICK TO THA . DOES REMEMBER MY EXPERIENCE AS A CLASSROOM TEACHER AT THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR WHEN YOU THINK YOUR CLASSROOM IS SETTLED AND THEN YOU GET TWO MORE

[02:05:02]

BUT WITH THE IDEA WE CAN COME BACK AND REVISIT THESE THINGS, TRANSFER POLICY SO TO SPEAK, TRANSFER FROM HOME TO SCHOOL. BUT I THINK THAT IS A GOOD PRACTICE INITIALLY.

ESPECIALLY SINCE THIS IS THE FIRST TIME WE ARE DOING THIS AND TO SEE HOW THINGS GO.

THAT'S IT. THANKS.>LISA KAPLAN : THANK YOU, TRUSTEE HEREDIA .

YOUR COMMENTS ACTUALLY BROUGHT UP A SECOND CLARIFYING QUESTIO .

SO IF WE DO START BACKUP A HYBRID, WHAT HAPPENS TO OUR DAY CAMP? BECAUSE WITH OUR HYBRID WE ARE ONE DAY OFF, ONE DAY OFF. WHAT ABOUT ÃAND I UNDERSTAND THE CROSS-CONTAMINATION, BUT PROVIDING A SAFE SPACE FOR STUDENTS WHO STILL NEED IT.

WERE AT THE DAY CAMP ON DAYS THAT THEY ARE NOT QUOTE UNQUOTE IN CLASS.

>> THAT IS WHERE IT STARTS TO GET LESS ABOUT EQUITY AND MORE ABOUT FACILITIES AND WHAT EXISTS. AND THAT IS SOMETHING WE WOULD PUT THE TRANSITIONAL MODEL FIRST AND TAKE A LOOK AT THOSE PLAYERS. AND WE ARE VERY GRATEFUL FOR THE CENTER. SO MANY STUDENTS DO WE HAVE IN THE CENTER, DO WE KNOW?IT'S NOT FILLED, LET'S PUT IT THAT WAY. VERY EXPENSIVE, NOT FILLED AND SET TO RUN OUT OF FUNDS NOVEMBER 20. OR A PAID PROGRAM THAT HAS BEEN AROUND WOULD POTENTIALLY CONTINUE. WHAT WE WOULD HAVE TO DO, THIS IS ALL THE MORE WORK THAT CONTINUES HIS WORK WITH OUR AFTERSCHOOL PROVIDERS TO GET A SENSE OF WHAT THAT WOULD LOOK LIKE. THAT IS WHY I SAY OUR INTELLECTUAL CAPITAL IS ALL BEEN USED TO GET TO HEAR. THERE IS STILL MORE WORK FOR THEM TO DO WHETHER IT IS FOR WEEKS IS THE EARLIEST ON NOVEMBER 30 IS THE EARLIEST.

WE WILL STILL BE VERY BUSY WORKERS EXECUTING THIS AND FIGURING OUT ALL THOSE LITTLE

PIECES. >>LISA KAPLAN : AND I THINK THAT IS IMPORTANT BECAUSE WE WERE LIKE OKAY, THE COUNTY SAYS YOU ARE OPEN. WHY ARE YOU OPEN.

I THINK IT IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW ALL THE WORK WE STILL HAVE TO DO IF THE BOARD DECIDES THIS.

A COUPLE OF THE QUESTIONS, BOARD MEMBERS. AND THE STATEMENT.

DOUG, A LOT OF OUR PLAN I THINK DEPENDS ON THEARCHITECT CERTIFIED IN CLASSROOMS .

TOLD HIM DROPDEAD DATE IS NOVEMBER 6.> THE ONLY THING I WOULD SAY TO THAT IS IF THE GUIDELINES CHANGE BETWEEN NOW AND THEN AND WE NEED TO GO BACK THROUGH, WE WOULD NEED MORE TIME TO DO THAT. AND THAT COULD HAPPEN. THINGS HAVE BEEN CHANGING.

WE ARE WORKING FOR THAT. ALL SYSTEMS GO TRYING TO MEET THAT NOVEMBER 6.

>> THAT SOMETHING THAT SHOULD BECALLED OUT IN THE BENCHMARKS .

I THINK AS WE LOOK AT BENCHMARKS, HAVING A CLASSROOM CERTIFIED IS REALLY IMPORTANT TO ME BEFORE WE EVEN GO TO THAT STEP OF OPENING. BUT I ALSO KNOW HOW MUCH PLANNING IT TAKES. SO BOARD MEMBERS, WOULD YOU BE OPEN TO THE IDEA THAT OUR FAMILY SURVEY ACTUALLY CLOSES OCTOBER 26 SO IT GIVES OUR STAFF PLENTY OF TIME TO START PLANNING CLASSROOMS IN THE AB SCHEDULE?BECAUSE MY CONCERN IS IF WE TAINT TURN ORANGE, WHY ARE WE SLOW ON THINGS TO THAT EXTENT. AND I WOULD RATHER GIVE STAFF MORE TIME AND THAT STILL GIVES PARENTS ABOUT TWO WEEKS TO FOLLOW-UP WITH A SURVEY.

THOUGHTS? >> A QUICK QUESTION. SO IN ADDITION TO THE SURVEY, IF YOU DON'T HEAR BACK FROM PARENTS IS THERE A PLAN TO CONTACT THEM TO UNDERSTAND WHAT

OPTION THEY WOULD CHOOSE? >> YES, LIKE WHAT WE DID WITH THE TECHNOLOGY.

WE ARE KIND OF LIKE LIAM NEESON. WE HAVE A PARTICULAR SET OF SKILLS AND WE WILL HUNT THEM DOWN, WE WILL FIND THEM AND WE WILL MAKE SURE THEY CHOOSE.

>> THANK YOU. [LAUGHTER] >> GOOD LUCK, COUNCILMAN.

>> IN THAT CASE, I WILL PERSONALLY BE OKAY WITH THE TWO WEEKS INSTEAD OF THREE.

>>LISA KAPLAN : BOARD MEMBERS? >> FOR THE SURVEY? >>LISA KAPLAN : THE OCTOBER 26

[02:10:03]

>> LET ME PUT IT UP ON THE SCREEN . >> SURE.

>> THAT WOULD HELP.>> BILL YOUNG IS HANDSOME, BUT I NEED TO PROPERLY SEEK.

SPOKE TO WANT TO GO BACK TO THE OTHER ONE. >> THIS ONE IS GOOD.

>> THAT IS GOOD? BUT THAT IS GOOD. >> THEN WE WILL LEAVE IT AT

THAT ONE. >> BECAUSE IT SAYS IN THE SECOND LINE TO NOVEMBER 2 OR

OCTOBER 26. >> AND I AM TYPING ON THE MAIN ÃI HAVE COPIED AND IT SAYS IF THE BOARD APPROVES WE WILL HAVE IT DONE AND YOU HAVE COPIES TOMORROW.

JUST SO WE CAN SLEEP TONIGHT. >> PRESIDENT KAPLAN? >>LISA KAPLAN : YES.

>> TO THE SPECIFIC QUESTION, WITH THE CLARIFICATION WE RECEIVED THAT THE DEADLINE WAS TO SUBMIT THE SURVEYS BY THE 26TH. SORRY, IT IS NOT A SURVEY.

IT'S THE OPTION. THE OPTION SELECTION BY OCTOBER 26, I THINK THAT IS REASONABLE.

RECOGNIZING THAT WE WILL MAKE GREAT EFFORTS TO TRACK DOWN THOSE WHO ARE UNRESPONSIVE.

BUT I WOULD ALSO SAY, THIS IS A STRESSFUL TIME FOR A LOT OF PEOPLE.

AND I THINK, LIKE THE OVERALL TIMELINE OF NOVEMBER 30. I AGREE WITH YOUR RECOMMENDATION TO TRY TO GET STUFF THE INFORMATION TO BUILDING A CLASSROOM SOONER, BUT I THINK NOVEMBER 30, QUCBEC THE MONDAY AFTER THANKSGIVING AT THE EARLIEST.

IF I REMEMBER WITH THE SUPERINTENDENT PRESENTATION CORRECTLY.

IT IS NO EARLIER THAN NOVEMBER 30 BECAUSE AGAIN, WE GET TO MONITOR THE SITUATION AND SEE HOW THINGS ARE GOING IN OTHER DISTRICTS THROUGHOUT THE REGIO .

>> AS A BOARD WE CAN DECIDE TO OPEN UP TOMORROW, BUT IT PROBABLY WOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED AGAINST THE SUPERINTENDENTS RECOMMENDATION. SO THE SUPERINTENDENT PUT TOGETHER A COURTESY PLAN OF WHAT IT WOULD LOOK LIKE NOT OPENING PRIOR TO NOVEMBER 30.

BUT WE HAVE THE CHOICE OF LOOKING AT THIS IN EITHER ADDING METRICS OR ADJUSTING METRICS IF WE SEE CERTAIN THINGS WHERE IT MIGHT JUST THE REOPENING.

BUT AGAIN, THIS ALL DEPENDS ON OR WE COULD ADD SOMETHING THAT IS IMPORTANT TO ME.

IF THE COUNTY GOES BACK TO PURPLE, WE ARE NOT REOPENING. >> THAT IS ALREADY A GIVEN IF IT GOES BACK TO PURPLE WE CAN'T REOPEN FOR THAT IS ONE OF THE TIMELINE CLOCKS OUT WAITING UNTIL JANUARY. IF IT GOES BACK TO PURPLE, EVEN IF IT IS NOT IN OUR ZIP CODE AND AFFECTING OUR SCHOOL COMMUNITY POPULATION WE ARE NOT OPEN, WE WON'T BE OPENING.

BUT IF YOU GO BACK TO PURPLE AND YOU ARE OPEN AND YOU DON'T HAVE OUTBREAKS AT YOUR SCHOOL,

YOU GET TO STAY OPEN. >> I'M SORRY, CHRIS. THE LAST ONE CONFUSE ME A LITTLE BIT. COULD YOU ONE MORE TIME IF IT IS PURPLE WE ARE NOT OPENING WE HAVE DISCRETION TO STAY OPEN IF WE HIT PURPLE AND THERE HAVE NOT BEEN ANY OUTBREAKS?HAT IF YOU ARE ALREADY OPEN AND IT GOES TO PURPLE, AND THERE ARE NO OUTBREAKS AT YOUR SCHOOL THAT ARE REQUIRED IN THE CALIFORNIA PUBLIC HEALTH GUIDELINES TO SHUT DOWN YOUR SCHOOLS OR YOUR SCHOOL, YOU CAN REMAIN OPEN. AND SO FAR. WE ASK A PUBLIC HEALTH ÃTHE DAYS ARE COMING TOGETHER. I THINK IT WAS YESTERDAY.

THEY WERE GOING ABOUT THEIR LIFE ON IT, BUT THEY BELIEVE ONLY ONE COUNTY SO FAR HAS GONE BACK FROM RED TO PURPLE.I THINK OUR BIGGEST WORRY RIGHT NOW IS WE ARE GOING TO HIT ORANGE IN EARLY NOVEMBER AND THAT MAYBE THE QUESTIONS WE GET.

NOW WE ARE ORANGE WE ARE ONE AWAY FRM YELLOW. I THINK YELLOW IS WHEN WE REALLY HIT THE MINIMAL ON BARS AND THINGS LIKE THAT OPEN REALLY DEFINITELY DON'T WANT TO

NOT BE OPEN AS YELLOW IS OPEN. >> MY NEXT QUESTION WOULD BE IN TERMS OF THE BEHAVIOR WE HAVE SEEN IN SACRAMENTO COUNTY, THINK THERE'S BEEN ARTICLES REPORTED ON THIS FOR PEOPLE IN SACRAMENTO AND MOST OF THE STATE HAVE ACTUALLY VERY COMPLIANT WITH THE SOCIAL DISTANCING HEADLINE. I THINK IT IS LIKELY, IT SEEMS LIKELY WE WILL HIT ORANGE.

IS A SAFE ASSUMPTION? >> AS OF TODAY IT IS MORE LIKELY WE HAVE ORANGE THEN PURPLE BUT ONE THING WE KNOW ABOUT THE SLAVERS IS WE DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT THIS VIRUS.

>> THE COUNTY KNOWS DATA BEFORE IT REPORTS DATA. I DO KNOW THERE IS A BIT OF A LAG. AND THAT'S WHERE KIND OF LIKE ON THE THIRD LINE DOWN IS WHERE

[02:15:04]

>> TO GET SPECIFIC ON THE DATA. AND I'M REALLY NOT AN EXPERT IF YOU HAVE TO STAY IN IT FOR TWO WEEKS WERE NOT. BUT REPORTED YESTERDAY AT NOON, THE SACRAMENTO COUNTY IS STILL RED BUT HAS 5.1 NEW COVID-19 CASES PER DAY PER 100,000. NOW, THAT PUTS US IN THAT SUBSTANTIAL RANGE. AND I THINK IT ÃIT LOOKS LIKE MODERATE 3.9.

SO THERE IS A SEVEN DAY LAG. THAT IS PRESENT C IN THERE IS A LAG.

I CAN JUST TELL YOU THE EQUITY NUMBER CAME OUT IN THE POSITIVITY RATE IS 2.8.

IN THE POSITIVITY RATE, THAT IS GOOD HEADING TOWARD ORANGE POTENTIALLY.

IN THE EQUITY NUMBER WAS 4.0. AND 4.0 PERCENT. IN THE EQUITY NUMBER THAT IS ORANGE IS BETWEEN 2.2 AND 5.2. WOMEN, I CAN'T PROMISE ANYTHING BUT WE ARE HEADING MORE TOWARD

ORANGE THEN PURPLE RIGHT NOW. >> SO PRESIDENT KAPLAN , SO CAN WE GO BACK ÃSO WE ARE LOOKING AT, THERE WERE A COUPLE OF THINGS I THINK WE MIGHT HAVE AGREED ON.

WE AGREED IF WE WERE TO ADOPT THIS THAT WE WOULD WANT THE SURVEY DONE BY OCTOBER 26,

CORRECT? >>LISA KAPLAN : YES. >> NO WE ARE LOOKING AT THE BUFFERS. THE TWO WEEK OR THREE WEEK BUFFER.

IN THE WE ARELOOKING AT A TWO WEEK BUFFER . IS THAT SORT OF WHERE WE ARE A . IS THAT WHAT YOUR UNDERSTANDING IS?

>>LISA KAPLAN : YEAH, AND THE TWO WEEK BUFFER WOULD BUT AS AT OCTOBER 27.

THE ADDITIONAL TWO WEEKS. WE CONDUCTED WERE 30TH AND THE ADDITIONAL TWO WEEKS PUTS US AT OCTOBER 27 THAT WE CONTINUE AND REMAIN RED OR BETTER. MY SUPERINTENDENT EVANS BROUGHT OUT, I THINK THIS METRICS IS FABULOUS. BUT MY CONCERN IS IF WE ARE MOVING TO THE GREAT THE COUNTY CERTIFIES US TO ORANGE WE ARE TO KNOW THERE IS A LAG IN THE DATA GRID WE ARE ORANGE FOR WEEK ALREADY. I WOULD NOT CONSIDER OPENING THE WEEK BEFORE THANKSGIVING TO DO A LOT OF THE SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL ADJUSTMENT GETTING THE KIDS BACK ON CLASS AND HAVE THANKSGIVING AND GO TOWARD THE END OF THE YEAR.

AS AN OPTION. BUT IF WE REMAIN IN RED, I AM MORE IN LINE WITH WE DON'T OPEN

UNTIL NOVEMBER 30. >> I AM TOO. YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER, THE STUDENTS HAVE A WHOLE WEEK OFF OFTHANKSGIVING . WHICH I THINK, BRING ALONG FOR ORIENTATION, SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL, GETTING THEM USED TO AND THEN GOING OFF.

I COULD SEE EITHER WHITE. EITHER THE WEEK BEFORE OR THE WEEK AFTER.

AMINE, I THINK IT DEPENDS ON WHAT THAT WEEK IS GOING TO BE STRUCTURED.

HOW WILL IT BE STRUCTURED. I THINK IF TEACHERS FEEL OR WE FEEL LIKE THEY CAN COME BACK THE WEEK AFTER. AFTER THANKSGIVING AND WE SPEND A WEEK FOCUSING ON THEIR

WELL-BEING AND GO RIGHT INTO INSTRUCTION. >> I THINK ONE OF THE THINGS FOR ME THAT WE LOOK AT IS I APPRECIATE IT BECAUSE YOU ARE A CLASSROOM TEACHER AND PROVIDE US A PERSPECTIVE. BUT I ALSO GO TO THE EXTENT THAT COUNTY HEALTH AND THE STATE HAVE SET UP DATA FOR US TO LOOK AT, I TRUST OUR STAFF IMPLICITLY TO IF WE SAY SOCIAL

[02:20:08]

THING HONESTLY OUR MAJOR FACTOR ON OUR BENCHMARKS WE ARE LOOKING AT NO IS IF WE GO ORANGE BY, I GUESS IT WOULD BE NOVEMBER 4, DO WE SAY WE ARE GOING TO OPEN ON NOVEMBER 16.

AND IF WE DON'T GO ORANGE UNTIL A LATER DATE, WE JUST OPEN NOVEMBER 30.

BECAUSE I THINK WE HAVE TO PICK A CUT OFF ON WHEN WE GO ORANGE SO THAT THERE IS STILL TIME.

>> I THINK ONE OF THE THINGS THAT IS REALLY IMPORTANT FOR OUR FAMILIES AND STAFF RIGHT NOW IS TO HAVE THAT ROADMAP. SO DEPENDENT ON ORANGE OR THREE WEEKS, THE MINUTE WE GO ORANGE WE HAVE TO PAY, WE ARE PIVOTING. SO I WOULD ALMOST SAY THEN IF WE ARE THOUGHTFUL WE COULD BE GOING ORANGE, THE BUFFER SHOULD BE TWO WEEKS.

AND THEN THE NOT EARLIER THEN WOULD BE THE WEEK BEFORE THANKSGIVING, WHICH REMEMBER IT IS NOT EARLIER THAN. AND THAT STILL GIVES US FROM 1 NOVEMBER TO SAY WE ARE ON.

FOR NOVEMBER 16. OR IT WILL BE NOVEMBER 30. >> I AGREE WITH THE TWO WEEK BUFFER. I THINK THAT IS A SUFFICIENT TIME.

I WOULD SUPPORT THAT IDEA. AS OPPOSED TO THREE. >> BOARD MEMBERS?

>> I GUESS MY ONLY QUESTION WOULD BE A TWO WEEK BUFFER OR A THREE WEEK BUFFER, WOODEN STAFF AND THE COMMUNITY WANT MORE TIME TO REACT TO AN ANNOUNCEMENT THAT WE WOULD

REOPEN? I'M JUST ASKING. >> IF WE GET OUR TIME AND I EXPECT EVERYTHING TRUSTEE KAPLAN IS SAYING. THIS IS REALLY JUST A HYPOTHETICAL HERE. REGARDLESS OF WHEN THE COUNTY SAYS ORANGE IS OPEN, WHY NOT ALLOW OURSELVES A LITTLE BIT MORE TIME. AND I AM FOR REOPENING, BUT 2 TO 3 WEEKS, WHY NOT JUST PUT ON A SCHEDULE THAT SAYS HERE IS A HARD DATE AND WHEREVER THE

ORANGE FALLS WE HAVE THE ADEQUATE AMOUNT OF TIME. >> BECAUSE 66 PERCENT OF OUR PARENTS ARE LOOKING TO POTENTIALLY COME BACK ON CAMPUS.

>> TRUE. >> AND THE ONES THAT DON'T WANT TO CAN BE DISTANCE LEARNING.

THEY CAN STAY 100 PERCENT DISTANCE LEARNING. >> IF I THINK I UNDERSTAND RIGHT, THOUGH. AND IF I AM WRONG JUST TELL ME AND I WILL BE QUIET.

I THINK WE ARE TALKING ABOUT A TWO WEEK BUFFER LONGER THAN THE COUNTY SAYS.

TO MEET WEEKS MORE THAN YESTERDAY TO THE 27. GET THE ROOM CERTIFIED AND THERE STILL WOULD BE A TWO WEEK BUFFER AFTER AS A HEAD'S UP. SO THERE ARE TWO, TWO WEEK BUFFERS. THAT WOULD GIVE US FOUR WEEKS AS A BUFFER TOTAL TO ALLOW FOR

STUFF TO HAPPEN. >> THAT'S ARTS THE DIFFERENCE IN MY MIND.

>> DOES THAT HELP WITH YOU, PRESIDENT KAPLAN? >>LISA KAPLAN : EXCEPT IT FALLS ON THE THANKSGIVING WEEKEND. THAT IS THE ONLY DEAL. BECAUSE NOVEMBER 6 IS A FRIDAY IN NOVEMBER 20 IS A FRIDAY AND THE VERY NEXT WEEK OR WE COULD CONSIDER OPENING BE

THANKSGIVING. >> THE NOVEMBER 6, IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE TWO WEEKS NOVEMBER

6. IT CAN BE TWO WEEKS FROM WHAT IT WOULD BE OCTOBR 27? >> WHICH WOULD BE THE 10TH, WHICH WOULD STILL PROVIDE THE TWO WEEKS OF POTENTIALLY AND THAT IS WHERE I JUST LOOKED AT YOUR BLUE OR IF THE COUNTY TURNS ORANGE BEFORE NOVEMBER 4. OR WE COULD JUST TAKE IT TO NOVEMBER 2, WHICH THAT WOULD THEN BE THE TWO WEEKS IF WE WERE TO LOOK AT OPENING ON THE 16TH. IT SPLITS THE DIFFERENCE. BECAUSE THE DATA COMES OUT ON TUESDAYS FROM THE COUNTY AND BECAUSE IT REOPENING WAS A 13, THE DATES IN PLACE ARE TUESDAY.

SO IF I AM UNDERSTANDING YOU CORRECTLY, NOVEMBER 10 WOULD BE TWO WEEKS AFTER THE 27TH.

[02:25:01]

THREE WEEKS FOR ACADEMICS. THAT WOULD BE THE EARLIEST. >> YES.

>> IS THE GROUP COMFORTABLE WITH THAT? AND IF NOT, WE WOULD LOVE TO HEAR.ECAUSE WE DO WANT TO CAPTURE AND HAVE EVERYONE FEEL LIKE THEY HAVE OWNERSHIP.

>>LISA KAPLAN : WHICH THIS IS ALL THE EARLIEST. WHICH IS SO DEPENDENT ON 2020 REARING ITS HEAD ON SO MANY DIFFERENT WAYS AND FOR WHATEVER REASO WE CAN BACKSLIDE.

BECAUSE 32 STATES ARE ONTHE RISE . WHICH I RECOGNIZE THAT COMPLETELY CASE. AND IF WE BACKSLIDE AND OUR NUMBERS GO UP, I'M NOT

COMFORTABLE. >> I HAVE A QUESTION. I AM COMFORTABLE WITH THAT TIMELINE.DO YOU THINK IT IS A TIMELINE THAT DISTRICT STAFF WOULD FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH? OR DO YOU THINK PREFERENCE MIGHT BE FOR ANOTHER WEEK? JUST SO IT HELPS ME TO FEEL

MARK COMPETENT ABOUT MOVING FORWARD WITH THE TIMELINE. >> THINK ONE OF THE BIGGEST STRUGGLES WE HAVE IS A NOTE TO GET AS MUCH OF THE SECRET. T'S ON T.V. AND THE NEWS.

OUR UNION PRESIDENT SIGNED ON AND THEY DO NOT WANT TO RETURN UNTIL JANUARY.

SO THAT IS ALWAYS GOING TO BE AN ATTENTION POINT UNLESS WE SAY IT IS JANUARY.

THAT WILL BE AN ATTENTION POINT IN THE PUBLIC NEEDS TO BE AWARE THAT BURDEN A PUBLIC DOESN'T LIKE WHEN WE GET INTO HER OCCASIONAL SPATS, BUT IT IS THE ONE THING I ASK THEY NOT DO WAS PICK A DAY AND CALL A SHOT SO WE COULD NEGOTIATE AND FIGURE IT OUT.

BUT IT HAPPENED ANYWAY. >> TO YOUR POINT, I THINK I AM COMFORTABLE WITH NO EARLIER THAN THE WEEK BEFORE THANKSGIVING WITH THE UNDERSTANDING.

THE NICE THING IS WHEN WE LOOK AT ALL THE FOLKS IN THE ZOOM ROOM WITH THIS RIGHT NOW THAT WE HAVE ALL WORKED WITH THEM FOR SO LONG WE KNOW THERE IS NOT A SINGLE PERSON ON THIS ZOOM CALL THAT WOULD EVER DO ANYTHING TO JEOPARDIZE THE SAFETY OF OUR STUDENTS AND OUR FAMILIES AND STAFF.ND SO WITH THE UNDERSTANDING THAT IF THEY NEED THEEXTRA TIME TO DO THINGS RIGHT , WE ARE NOT CAN JUMP UP AND DOWN. LIKE TO DOUG'S POINT AND LISA'S POINT, ARCHITECTS GET A LITTLE SQUISHY WITH THAT ONE, BUT IF THE RULES AND THE GAME CHANGE MID GAME AGAIN, WHICH IS PRETTY MUCH BEEN THE STORY FOR 2020, THAT NOVEMBER 6 DATE HAS TO SLIGHT AND THIS NOBODIES FAULT. I THINK THAT IS WHERE I AM COMING DOWN.

LET'S GO FOR THIS IS THE TEMPLATE, THESE ARE THE BENCHMARKS.

THIS IS THE HOPEFUL TIMELINE UN FACTS THAT GO INTO THE BENCHMARKS ARE 100 PERCENT

BEYOND OUR CONTROL. >> I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU ARE SAYING AND I AGREE WITH WHAT YOU ARE SAYING.ME WITH THE MATH. HOW MANY WEEKS OF A BUFFER IF HE GOT THE WEEK BEFORE THANKSGIVING? IT LOOKS A LOT LONGER THAN THREE. IT LOOKS LIKE ALMOST 4 BASED ON THE DECISION.

>> IT IS TO THAT EXTENT BECAUSE OUR ISSUE IS THE CERTIFICATIONS.ND IN THE METRIC THAT IS ONE OF FROM THE BOTTOM, I KINDA ASKED FOR ARE THERE OTHER METRICS WE CAN LOOK AT ONE OF THE ONES WAS WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THE SURROUNDING COUNTIES.

AND THAT IS NOT SOMETHING ANYBODY HAS DISCUSSED. BUT I THINK THAT IS ALL PART OF THE MALLEABLE BUFFER THAT IT SHOULD BE SQUEEZED IN UP ABOVE TO THE TWO WEEK BUFFER OF WHAT

IS HAPPENING TOTALLY DOES. IN FACT, >> I THINK WE AT THE TWO WEEK BUFFER FOR STATE COUNTY, BUT ALSO ADD IN WHAT IS SURROUNDING DISTRICTS DOING THEN WE HAVE THE ARCHITECT CERTIFICATION AND NO EARLIER THAN NOVEMBER 16 DEPEND ON ARCHITECTS, STATE RULES, COUNTY INFECTION RATES, SURROUNDING COUNTY INFECTION RATE, STAFF THE BUFFER GOES TO

[02:30:11]

BETWEEN THE 27TH AND THE 13TH? >> I THINK WATCHING WHAT HAPPENS IN THE SURROUNDING COUNTIES, I THINK THAT IS IMPORTANT. THEY ARE LIKE OUR TEST SITES.

THEY ARE BENCHMARKS FOR MOVING FORWARD. OUR HALTING, OUR EFFORTS TO MOVE FORWARD.Ã I THINK THAT IS AN IMPORTANT CRITERIA OF THE MATRIX.

>> NEIGHBORS TO THE EAST WHERE LITERALLY WITHIN DAYS OF OPENING THEY HAD POSITIVE TESTS BUT NO SPREAD. THEY QUARANTINED A COHORT THERE WERE SOME THINGS THAT HAVE BEEN DONE. SO I WOULD LIKE THIS TIMELINE GIVES US THE TIME TO CONTINUE

DOING AND HOW WELL IT IS E - WORKING. >> I THINK THIS IS ALSO SAID WITHOUT SAYING IT. WE KNOW THIS PANDEMIC IS HARD FOR EVERYBODY IN THE KNOW EVERYBODY IS HAVING A HARD TIME. AND WE HAVE ALL DISTRICT OF GIVING A PARENT CHOICE. I BELIEVE EVERY PARENT SHOULD HAVE THE THEY WANT TO DO AND BELIEVE IS RIGHT.

I THINK THE START PART ONE OF THE CHOICE, BUT I THINK IT IS INCUMBENT THAT WE DID REVIEW WHAT OUR CHOICES ARE IN JANUARY AND IF WE ARE ABLE TO OPEN, FLEXIBILITY NEEDS TO BE BUILT IN OR MONITORED OR CHANGED. I MEAN, OUR STAFF IS WORKING HARD, EVERYBODY IS WORKING HARD ON THIS. I JUST WANT PARENTS TO DO WHAT IS RIGHT FOR THEM.

THERE IS NO ONE RIGHT ANSWER. I KNOW WE HAVE TO DO THE BEST. I AM COMFORTABLE IN OUR TRAINING WE HAVE DONE WITH OUR CLASSIFIED AND OUR STAFF IN THE AMOUNT OF PPE WE HAVE.

AND A NO NEW MATTER WHAT WE CAN'T PROMISE YOU NOBODY WILL GET SICK, BUT WE HAVE THE TRAINING AND PROTOCOLS IN PLACE TO DO OUR BEST. AND WE ARE WORKING WITH OUR PARTNERS AND THIS IS A PROCESS. AND I VALUE LISTENING TO OUR PARENTS AND STAFF ON HOW WE DO THIS, BUT I THINK WE HAVE TO SET THESE BENCHMARKS AND MOVE FORWARD KNOWING AND BEING VERY CLEAR THAT WE SET THESE BENCHMARKS AND IT DOES DEPEND ON EVERYBODY'S AVAILABLE ABILITY TO WEAR A MASK AND BE SAFE AND KEEP THE SPREAD LOW. BECAUSE IF WE DO THAT, OUR KIDS

CAN SAFELY COME BACK TO SCHOOL. >> CHRISTINA, I'M GOING TO ASK YOU TO DO SOMETHING I HOPE YOU WILL BE ABLE TO DO. THE ACTUAL PRESENTATIONITSELF , THE LAST SLIDE, NOW SLIDE 73, IS WHAT I THINK I HAVE HEARD FROM TRUSTEES AND I WOULD LIKE TO BE ABLE TO SHOW.

I KNOW YOU ARE ON A PDF. IF YOU CAN GET TO THOSE LAST SLIDE.

I JUST SAW HER FACE POP UP ON THE GOOGLE RECITATIONS OF FOLKS SO FAR IT IS LOOKING GOOD.

>> KIND OF CREEPY. >> YOU WERE STARING AT ME FROM THE LITTLE CIRCLE ON THE GOOGLE

SLIDE. THAT IS A LITTLE AWKWARD. >> STOPS DURING.> THIS TO SEE THOUSAND PEOPLE WATCHING AND WAITING. IT'S OKAY.

NO PRESSURE.[LAUGHTER] I DON'T EXACTLY REMEMBER WHAT NUMBER.

NO PRESSURE. >> AND I JUST SAY I THINK THERE WILL BE COMMUNITY MEMBERS OR PARENTS WHO THINK WE ARE NOT MOVING FORWARD QUICK ENOUGH, SOON ENOUGH WITH GETTING KIDS BACK TO THE SCHOOL BOARD ONE OF THE THINGS I HAVE HEARD FROM MY FELLOW TRUSTEES IS WE ARE WILLING TO ABIDE BY A BODY OF CRITERIA THAT WILL ENSURE THE SAFETY OF OUR STUDENTS RETURNING TO SCHOOL. LIKE TRUSTEE KAPLAN SAID, WE CAN'T PREVENT THE PANDEMIC.

[02:35:01]

THAT IS SO IMPORTANT. BECAUSE WE ARE REALLY THINKING ABOUT HEY, WE ARE NOT RUSHING BACK THROUGH HERE'S THE STEPS IN WHICH WE WILL COME BACK TO SCHOOL.

>>LISA KAPLAN : ALL RIGHT. >> SO THAT ISN'T SUPER ÃIS THERE ANY CHANCE TO ZOOM AND BLOW THAT OF BATTLE? MAY BE PRESENT KNOWN AND SEE IF THAT HELPS? WE ALL HAVE A REALLY TINY SCREEN BACK HERE, JUST SO YOU ALL KNOW.

BUT BASICALLY THIS IS THE FIRST CRITERIA, SACRAMENTO COUNTY REMAIN RED OR BETTER INSTEAD OF READY. HOW THE HECK IT BECAME READY I HAVE NO IDEA.

THAT WAS AS OF YESTERDAY OCTOBER 13. ALLOWS FOR PARENT FAMILY OPTION DECISIONS. THAT WOULD BE OCTOBER 26. THE BUFFER, AFTER THE STATE AND COUNTY ALLOW SCHOOL DISTRICTS TO REOPEN, THAT WOULD DROP THAT OFF.

THAT WOULD BE OCTOBER 27, 2020. SO THAT IS TWO WEEKS AFTER THE STATE AND COUNTY SAID WE CAN REOPEN. THERE IS A BUFFER TO MAKE SURE THINGS ARE STILL GOING OKAY IN THE CRAZY 2020. AND THEN THERE IS A TIME PERIOD LEADING UP TO THE SIXTH, WHICH IS THE TARGET DATE FOR CERTIFICATION. AS LONG AS THAT IS ON TRACK, WE WOULD BE ABLE TO GIVE THE COURTESY TO WE COMMUNICATION , WHICH WOULD ACTUALL .

>> IT SAYS NO EARLIER. >> THAT IS TWO WEEKS BEFORE THE 13TH.

WERE THE 16TH. SO THAT WOULD BE, SOMEONE ON MY TEAM HELP A BROTHER OUT.

>> IT SHOULD BE AFTER THE ARCHITECTS CERTIFY OUR CLASSES ARE GOOD.

>> THAT PUTS US RIGHT AT THANKSGIVING. SO KIND OF THE IDEA IS WE ARE GIVING THE TWO WEEK WARNING THAT AS LONG AS THE CERTIFICATION IS BETTER.

AS LONG AS THE CERTIFICATION COMES THROUGH, WE WILL BE OPENING THE WEEK BEFOREHAND.

OR IF YOU REALLY WANTED TO BE LOGICAL AND SEQUENTIAL, GOES TO NOVEMBER 30.

>> IF WE DO OCTOBER 30 ÃTHAT SHOULD BE OCTOBER 30. UNDERSTANDING THAT WHEN WE GIVE THE NOTICE TO PARENTS THAT IT LOOKS LIKE WE MAY BE OPENING THAT TWO WEEK BUFFER, HOWEVER, WE DO THE TO BE COMMUNICATION. WE ALSO LIST IT IS DEPENDENT ON CERTIFICATION BY ARCHITECT

REMAINING IN RED OR BETTER, ETC. >> SO ÃIS THAT WHAT WE HAVE

HEARD TRUSTEES OUTLINE? HOPEFULLY YOU CAN ALL SEE THAT. >> I CAN'T SEE IT.

>> YOU CAN'T SEE IT? OKAY. >> I SEE IT.

>> I SEE IT. >> OKAY, THE VIM THE MORE ON HERE.

>> NOT A MORON. >> WHAT I SEE IS STILL SLIDE. >> IT HAS BEEN CHANGED WITH UPDATED DATA. IT IS JUST WRITTEN REALLY SMALL.

SQUINT. >> I WILL JUST MAY BE HELP PEOPLE.

>> WE WILL UPDATE THE Y AND THE THOUGHT PROCESS. >> IT IS GREEN, ONE EXIT OUT AND HIT REFRESH AND GO BACK TO PRESENT MODE? EVERY GO.

NOW IT LOOKS A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT WITH THE GREEN. SO IF YOU ARE SEEING THE GREEN THE LIGHT BLUE, YOU'RE LOOKING AT THE CORRECT ONE. AND YOU ARE RELIVING YOUR 80S

DAYS FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ENJOYED BEYOND. >> LAST ONE WE WOULD SAYING THERE IS WORK TO BE DONE AND THANKSGIVING BREAK IF WE HAVE

THE RELEASE WE WOULD COME BACK AS NOVEMBER 16. >> WE WOULD HAVE TO THROW

SOMETHING IN THERE FOR SURE. >> DEPENDENT ON SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL LEARNING.> WE WOULD LOOK AT ADJUST THOSE. MOSTLY WHAT I HAVE THE CRITERIA EARLIER THEN PROBABLY TOMORROW CABINET DEBRIEF WE WOULD MAKE SURE THE Y HAS MATCHED EVERYTHING. AND THEN WE WOULD PUT OUT A COMMUNICATION AND PUBLISH THIS AND PROBABLY EVEN HAVE A TEAM CREATE A ROADMAP TO EVERYONE CAN SEE THE BENCHMARKS AS THEY

COME. >> BOARD MEMBER QUESTIONS? COMMENTS?
