Good evening, commissioners im across the city writhing one of the members of the Oversight Committee thank you for your time for linking a short presentation a short briefing a company that reports youve already received well look at what is currently happening and just ask you to look forward but going back awards the pta in june of 2008 a parcel tax and it started off were youre going 30 million annually and now up to 40 million annually and increasing slowly San Francisco paid 200 plus dollars for each parcels 71 is earmarked for future conception e compensation and that compensation in part actually, the pta provides the 35 percent in future salaries, however, what was been going if over this year and last year and over next few years not enough that is coming in that will pay for the full amount what it is happening to pay for that 1. 5 percent raise we are relying on unspent q ta funds 25 percent of the revenue goes to nonparticipation support that helps our schools so far, however, weve only sorry 68 percent of compensation of the noncompensation funds are unspent and chris mentioned well have at auditor to speak on what they found but the audit did pass as far as the expenditures go for the funds im going to turn it over to kathy. Okay. So im present a previous of the 2015, 2016 achievement 80 want 6. 02, 3, 4 future raise were paid and 37 million in future compensation and block for educators and laptops are issued for construction teachers now have laptops in the classroom and impact and innovation it shifted in vision 2025 and schools presented an equity challenge within an engagement plan the i lapse supported the process and the bye lap boat camp coaching sessions this is something we advocated for the last two years and were really happy this resource has been added to the Program Professional Development the teacher residency the project sponsor between usf and stanford and will expand and serve 50 teachers in 20162017 this program is a model that the School Districts around the state are users and the 5 year employment retention rate is 80 percent and compared to 38 percent retention overall and so im just going to go through the report we have recommendations for the board of education because were an Oversight Committee we dont make policy only ask you guys do look at the gaps we find one of that is review the alignments with the budget to the proposition language the prop a was built for teacher incentives and retention some of those budget items may or may not my own so well have the board of education take a look at it and make sure their aligned with the intention to promote teacher salaries and their benefit and then we would like to see so we have because of the reliance of unspent funds for the Critical Care in the audit because of the reliance to pay for that we dont recommend the board of education figure out how youre going to keep on funding that because it is not sustainable we recommend that maybe you look at how youll pay for it without using the budget not being spent and then, of course, you know looking at outcome for the budget the budget spending plan and shows it so that again funds with gone and spent to where they were intended to go so those are the recommendations to you. One moment thank you for being our chair this is her last meeting and happily unfortunately for us a significant outoftowner and weve been around inform sometime we had a vacuum of knowledge but she brought challenging issues to you and we want to thank her the committee and, of course, like you to the time and so thank you, peggy and children and family thanks for the wine and a this certificate for you. clapping. thank you for your report go ahead before we entertain any questions or comments from our colleagues we have one Public Comment on this item ms. Blunt. Good evening commissioner public, members the School District i wanted to make a few comments ahead of comments of the commissioners first of all, we are proud of work done through pta over the years and thanks to all the members of the Respective Committee ive been able to sit in on some members of the committee your diligent and thoughtful and bringing your best and detailed work of the budget that is been brought to us by the voter of San Francisco and the taxpayers of San Francisco ive applaud the recommendations of aligning the budget with the proposition language i did when i got into the board room i noticed in the packet that is public was given appendixes are not there with the procedures report and the budget Analyst Report i think this is difficult for two fully grasp the recommendations of the Committee Without having the numbers in front of you and i would request the awe of r the appendix and a couple of things over the course of the last few months want to brought to your attention to one part of the budget the there raise that was the fact of the mattered it needs to be looked at the question was raised about whether the Grant Program which is we applaud the impact and the innovation but we are questioning whether m that money should be dutifully coming out of the grants and going to teacher compensation whole grant virtually the entire grant goes to extra at the schools or outside consultants or books for the library and coming out of teacher compensation. Thank you ms. Blunt. Thank you. I believe we have information about the audit we want. Yes. Nathan is here. Hello commissioners my name is nathan. Is there a document. Okay. Well, i, i am not ill describe the document it can be forwarded but okay ill give you my part im nathan were the dependent external auditors two documents a set of statement for the pta and the other one of the agreed on report they tell you the financial significance information where the money came from and how much and where it went and what is left at the june 2016 payments it is about the 9 million the other document i think is more relevant to the commissioners is our opinion regarding the use of funding has it been used appropriately we have access to reported for every single penny of the dollars that run through the pta we ask questions to the folks involved and folks involved in the management to consolidate the numbers and evaluate the dollars are spent appropriately were satisfied and it was a clean audit and route it should be given those are for every single year we had inform adjustment to the Financial Statement and none in the report so with that said, kind of the point to if me being here if anyone has questions this is the chance if you dont have the documents in front of you but inaudible . Okay. Okay. If you have any questions ill be happy to answer any questions you may have. Or, however, you guys prefer. Thank you so much typically we would have the audit in front of you this is past practices well make sure we get these and commissioner wynns. I want to ask we typically have the audit in front of us this is important in the audit but im age i need more information about explain why it the appropriate to have the carry over money not for compensation for compensation im not to ask our staff about why it is worked out this way but i think that is appropriate to ask the auditor why you on that is okay. On the Financial Statements we have an ending balance it is distributed to be used for q ta within the district management breakdown it they have more budgets with the effect how the district determines the use of funds and the audits to insure. So basically your you telling you all q ta money was used for thats something that okay. Thank you. I still want the answer to that question hes not obviously going to answer that. Commissioner fewer. Im not sure but on those fundamentals it says that over 68 percent of noncompensation funds is unspent primarily in technology so that part of the 9 million carry over. In the questions of the california packet theyre not using some in the back, yes so thats i think what the auditor said this is r there is a 9 million carry over; is that correct. The actual number is 9 million plus as of june within the q ta fund for q ta purposes it is up to the district we dont question the district regarding where we think theyre using it for things one the q ta but something envisioned one of the bullet points this direction the district wants to go with the money. So the chair over is because of the compensation that technology. Okay. The chair over is primarily generated from thinking spent noncompensation with the technology all funds carried forward are not spent but reprogrammed for the allocation primarily following the guidelines of will 71 and 29 percent with the breakdown of the funds but really is happening your funds that are noncompensation based; right . Have primarily creating their unspent balance it is redistributed out of 71 and 29 back into compensation. Commissioner mendozamcdonnell. Thank you before i want to start i want to say thank you for this work it prop a was an Important Initiative we worked hard to get passed and having you as is oversight is an important piece to the voter for this work i have a couple of questions mostly how the planning on spending the 9 million so 9 million that are currently in the pot what is the plan for that. Commissioner mendozamcdonnell right now 9 million roughly pilot between the teacher compensation and the nonrestricted teacher compensation that portion is in 78 spent down in order to cover the negotiating rates it is supporting one and a half percent rates for that was negotiated. So what is 1. 5 percent total what is that equal. It is about 3 want 8 or 5. 1 million so thats a little bit different so 5. One Million Dollars is the 5. One percent but were splitting out the 9 million how much of the 9 million is targeted teacher compensation 71 percent right what is that number what is 71 percent of 9 million. Okay. Of 9. One Million Dollars 4. 6 is nonteacher compensation generated out of it positions projects being moved into the following year and the piece that is going towards the teacher compensation is 4 want 46 million that is supporting the one and a half percent Salary Increase is 5. 1 million in total. Not covering the entire piece hell take as much as we can to cover the 1. 5 and then the 4 want 6 is the how will we spend that. There are projects with the it including the upgrades and integrations and supporting the laptop for educators. This will think decompleted this year, the 9 million we not have over range for this plan. I think this plans for carry over for one more year and so i think you start to get into red into about 4 years i think we projected the grant numbers were 2 to see where we are heading were not theyre not official numbers were project by project and so 4 years is what we said well kind of not carry over will not be sufficient okay. But we wont have any additional funds to go towards the 1. 5 presuming for spending the dollars or will we still have money based on next years thirty plus Million Dollars. If i can speak to that the Revenue Growth and slowing creeping up for the 1. 5 percent Salary Increases in that time were relying on carry over for that to bolster support and hoping that Revenue Growth catches up and sustains the one and a half salaries increases not relying on over spending in the prior year. I think one of the concerns you mentioned was not relying on carry over for the 1. 5 but instead the growth will have sufficient funds to carry the 1. 5 my understanding. And then the so 5. 9 million is the 1. 5 and the teacher those are all my questions thank you very much. Dr. Murase i really want to thank the Oversight Committee i know many, many hours and in a room together comp through lots of data we appreciate all the efforts and leadership it is critically for the job you do in terms of the circuit of entire he organization i have a couple of questions i noticed in terms of the impacts Award Winners and the notation Award Winners im confident the promotions wear very deserving of the entrants i want to raise the quality issues with the factors of the schools so the impact of Award Winners there were 8 not a single one in the southeast segment and a Award Winners charles seize money and whether theyre thinking how to change the criteria for allocating those awards so some of our most underserved have a shot. Thank you dr. Murase. Yes. The issue of quality has been brought to us the Oversight Committee in terms of the panel that works on this this is quite a board cookies of strrmdz representing walk sf and u a sf are involved we have feedback from the quality issues stakeholders looking at the geographyic and the tier 1, 2, 3 schools to be considered i can telling you weve actually begun the discussions i personally had a meeting with president anita wong and brought the issue of quality i think that need to be a consideration in our talks but the impact innovation awards are between aussie other communities as we sort to that were positive this is very much on everyones mind and moving with the cooperation. Gas stations to all part of teachers Residents Program the collaboration we need to attack teachers to our School District and address the Teacher Shortage so glad to see retention rates that higher than the average so want to acknowledge the work that goes into that particular plan thank you. Commissioner mendozamcdonnell. I wanted to say one last thing of the impact innovation awards this is exist i want to thank the partners weve been recognizing and gala for spark sf we look forward to having the opportunities to showcase some of the work they put into their applications to receive the award so we want to be able to congratulate them and for those lineups a ticket to the gallop go to the website it is exciting to celebrate our educators. Thank you, colleagues just a couple of things on my end one i want to thank the q ta Oversight Committee it is important by the definitely appreciate our service i actually am excited about the impact and innovation awarded and have a expiration that played a role in providing overseeing opportunities available for students ill not say the names but been excited about the opportunity to we appreciate the work and also excited about the opportunity for carry over to play a role in percentage the raise for the educators i think one, if it puts us in a good position to do that and have the ability but shows a commitment for educators weve of well find a way for them to get adequate and due compensation i think i have a little bit of a different thought processes of the sustainability of the thought process and maybe my colleagues ive been around q ta for at least 4 plus years and the chair over continues to happen so we we talk about the sustainability and projection verse the alley we cant continue to say that something will not happen if it becomes the practice of the district and the resources and our auditor tells us even though we have Resources Available for teacher compensation or Resources Available for nonteacher compensation and the reality we decide how to use that carry over resources and not in trouble necessarily from a fiscal year managed prospective then i think there is room for creativity in terms how we award our educators and do with carry over year after year again, if we continue to have the carry over we need a different conversation about our focus will be because we cant paint a bleak picture if it is port part of reality i want to be fair with the entire communities including the educators with that said, again, we appreciate the presentation and appreciate all of your work i believe superintendant guerrero wants to Say Something. I appreciate very much the language in this ballot measure around the awards every year this process continues to evolve and provides money for practices they have promised and will continue to support them through the i lab and process but the tint of the impact award we are cognizant this round from the schools geographically award identified an achievement gap they feel is a challenge so the big part of the objective to make sure the students were seeing comforted opportunities for outcomes and want to appreciate those schools will be showcasing their with regards at the gala and look forward to the school communities. Commissioner wynns. Thank you i just my earlier comments were for the auditor i want to turning to express my thanks to the committee i know that work is taking a commitment and time and expertise to develop we dont loss the continuity at the thank you all for many times i want to say that i think we having gotten this knowing more than we do and heard from the auditor were not seeing the budget i ask we need a discussion about q ta with the budget highlighted im not a member he attend the Budget Committee and the folks are not here i think ask the Board Leadership to find out and involve looking at the language and the agreement and all kinds of things how about how the money is divided and i appreciate that i think you know this makes me think good we know this but i want to know more and discuss some of these things i want to say that i was pleased you know my main question was everybodys question wait if we are paying Salary Increases not enough revenue i was happy to hear were anticipating i know you used the word hoping im trying to be positive the Revenue Growth will cover that eventually from my point of view it is appropriate to use carry over for a transmissional period not rely on it to pay something not enough revenue and have a problem to talk about i think we have to discuss some of the old it is time to have a review not just this this is great from the auditor and the committees point of view but bans this to ask you q t after the accident how it is doing i wanted to say and ive been happy to talk to a lot of people about the awards thankful gotten and how for the money is for them i want to say that is a really good Capacity Building exercise for our schools we really want to learn a lot more before how to write grant proposals and raise money and not only the mechanics but the thinking that goes we need them to think definitely about not just getting revenue but like this but about pursuing things Like Initiative projects not left for a start of a program but the schematic of how they change their school i wanted to highlight that and wanted to say that i think those innovations Award Winners are that depends on how to define the southeast i think a lot of the schools are in the mission; right . And happy about that so but i think that would be good to have a review of the winners over the years what are the projects i dont know we have some of that grandfathered somewhere we get is it in a choppy way last i want to say echo what dr. Murase said im pleased to hear about the success of the residentscy program we all love but the retention rate is staggering higher than any other program so this is something that deserves a kudos for that thank you all for this. Superintendent carranza to close.

In support of safeties for all act of 2016 authored by myself and commissioner mendozamcdonnell and Vice President walton whereas more than a one hundred and 17 thousand americans were killed or injured by guns in 2013 including 7 thousand plus children and 8 thousand plus californian and whereas theyve been one hundred and 60 School Shootings in the United States since the sandy hook Elementary School attack in 2012 whereas a california is a leader in adapting effective and common sense gun safety laws to improve Public Safety but the state has polls in the law that allow too many dangerous individuals to commitment acts of violence and whereas Jackie Newsom introduced a ballot measure a package ever commons reforms to protect our families and communities from gun violence and whereas this Initiative Keeps guns from falling into dangerous hands by requiring people problem licensed and conduct license background checks for Law Enforcement and whereas this initiative will strike a firearm dealer by requiring them to have employee backward checks and report lost or shone ammunition and helps to protect our city from Mass Shootings by making it illegal to have ammunition that allows mass killing and the legal disposal of those magazines and the commission has the existing gun laws by having a clear process of those convicted of a felon for those to relinquish your firearms and breakdown gun trafficking rings and return the guns to their legal owns if their firearms are lost and stolen and whereas the vast majorities of californians support all the proposals to close loopholes and strengthen our gun safety laws with the Public Opinion and essential to the families of San Francisco to support resemble 0 reforms to protect our communities from gun violation tlond the board of education supports this Ballot Initiative in the 2016 election. Any questions or comments or statements from colleagues commissioner wynns. I just want to if everyones name can be added to the resolution i guess it just the people that are here thank you. Commissioner mendozamcdonnell. Thank you i just want to thank dr. Murase for pulling this together weve attended an Information Section with regards to this when it was laundry and it is very daunting to share this statistics around the tragedies we had over the many years and you know, i think this will be one piece of a much larger pulses we try to solve the problems around gun safety im grateful to my former boss Lieutenant Governor newsom and one of many measures that makes our schools safer. Thanks i think the one thing that is missing from the resolution is really on education piece about firearms and anyway he did, he support is it i think that is having my husband being a Police Officer for 35 years and hes gone to any accidental discharges and from scorn personal to firearms are dangerous and disastrous weapons and i think that there is needed to have further education about the use of them and also how dangerous they are and further have more laws i think that require responsible gun owners to have keep them in a responsible way in their homes and also to responsible use of them thanks. Thank you. I want to say again, i that the key to this resolution is common sense common sense common sense we have a good number of folks in this country and city that believe that firearms are something they must own and possess we know they use the constitution to push on agendas in reality makes it unsafe for citizens not only of the country but commons measures to make sure that people are not Walking Around with clips and making sure there are consequences to dealers that sell to individuals and people that shouldnt have dependence in their hands i want to commend dr. Murase for bringing this forward and commissioner mendozamcdonnell and i do agree with commissioner fewer in terms of the education and gun safety piece but on the less firearms we have at home and the less firearms we have available to people is really what will help us all of eliminating and e rating gun violation so thank you dr. Murase. Two typos i want to correct before before a third paragraph and it is not going to be a slam dunk on the November Ballot a lot of opposition to it california is preserved as a leading state so were going to need all of the community to support this get behind it but it really is about ending gun violation and promoting gun safety and 80 happy to include all of these other of my colleagues on the resolution.

Great thank you superintendent commissioners drptd and Vice President walton and student delegates and colleagues and members of the public we are here this evening duo to give you an update and highlevel overview with the Families Council i believe the power point is warming up so basically, we wanted to just many of you were involved that the process of helping to make this happen and as you recall the campaign during 2014 the our children, our City Campaign and the voters of San Francisco unanimously agreed to support children and families and youth across the city so we have a counselor that is working to align efforts across the city and the communities overview to the goal a improve the outcome for all childrens and families and youth kiss across the city with the emphasis with the greatest need cochaired by mayor ed lee and 13 departmental headings heads and 13 leaders from the School District that are on the council and rep and students and parents and also over one hundred individuals that serve on workshops and members of the public who have been actively participating in moving forward and well talk about that so the our children Families Council has 40 deliverables the first is written to the legislation the first so create a citywide outcome frame franklin is to stash the priorities to align and to track our process at the city the second be delight is to create a 5 year plan we have the outcome framework and then create a 5 year plan plan that carotids with that framework and that 5 year plan is focused on the strategies and the process by which well reach the okay outcome the third data sharing between the city and the School Districts and the fourth area to create an online onestop shop for all statewide e citywide through an inventory and so what well do giving you a brief update in four of those areas so first, the framework versus a 77 page document and this document oils all the goals and milestones we want all children and families and youth to reach this framework was unanimously approved by the council in january avenue this year and it was created through an extensive Engagement Process and again this is serving as a foundation for the 5 year plan and so we wanted to have you take a look at the framework itself the framework is in this document and it is on page 17 and you can see we have outlined the 5 major goals ill state the goals if i can take a look at the 19 measures that coincide with those measures their children and youth and families especially in need meet the following goals to live and to attain the housing sustainability and file number and Motor Vehicle healthy and thrive in a 21st century learning and post secondary or career path those are the 19 measures that rose to the top of a process, however, we should mention will be several trunt measures that also fit within those goals and outlines in more detailed in the framework documents you have i wanted to mention a lot of framework around the city and frameworks through a different collaboration with the different about the framework the goal is all the frameworks that existed are a coalition should fit within the larger citywide framework were asking the coalition we can say as a city we do have one citywide alcoholic framework by which were all working under if you can Pay Attention to the bottom portions the framework those are critical aspects of the framework and also make them different the equity lens kind of from the prospective of race and ethnicity we heard there are other characters we need to look at the legal and gender and is all orientation just as involved and exposed to trauma, etc. Etc. So the goal is to look at all the goals look at the 19 measures where the context of all the combishth lens and also the strategies the strategies at the bottom are really about systems change so what were asking folks to think about is how to look at the different measures within the context of these system change efforts from the prospective how are we holy ourselves audible and corroborating the are we looking at how were cooperating and take into account our rows and who to look at data and improve practice and share the resources when it comes to training a lot of great 0 pockets of staff training around trauma and different pockets around the city and silos we are encouraging folks how to have a citywide training around trauma and in all the different measures thats the basic overview the first deliciously we want to give an update and the next area is the 5 year plan ill let my colleague here jennifer trend give that update thank you as laura mentioned 4 dlieblz and two to deliver one within the first year and the second a 5 year plan so since it is approved at the end of january weve drafted a plan the first one as mentioned it focused on process strategies the collective impact youve seen at the bottom of the framework and so what we are proposing in the plan to have a workshop for each the 5 goal areas in the framework and those groups will convene over the course of a year to have a road map to achieve the framework goals. So the plan is currently drafted with guidance if from the 5 Year Working Group from folks were in the middle of gathering the feedback from partners and stakeholders partners and one remaining on may 5th and opening up on Online Survey between may 9 and 19 that is a living document between now and the vote on may 26th the last draft is on the website we welcome the feedback our deliberately is data sharing mandated in the charter legislation but no, definitely timeline we wanted to have a working group that met at the end of march and chaired by martin and enjoyed by the excessive officer they meet every two to four weeks includes 23 members from the district and community and while your long term objective to establish sharing within the city and the School District theyll be helping us figure out what the benchmarks for the measures and the framework. And our final deliverable is the Services Inventory and again, this is charter mandated without a specific timeline that specifics we should have a inventory of pubically supported services to create something that a resource for families that be timely and comprehensive to build something useful for protecting and underserved families in the city we want to build something Service Providers and people working within the system for example, we envisioned that a inventory would be a useful tool for the social workers that help students identify activities and Resources Available to them and so we know this is a huge and ambitious endeavor well developed a pilot for a proof of concept and want to start small to have trust data for technical glitches for the longterm strategy we decided to focus on an online Digital Guide weve been working with the district and k c w f and library the mosque mo magic we encourage you to visit the site in may wrap up we want this timeline as an overview the activities for the council while the council only meets 3 times a year youll see in the first floor 4 working group with a 5 Plan Working Group and the working Group Meeting start next year we envision the inventory and data groups will continue to meet but launch 5 additional groups focused on the outcome of the framework and so that summarizes us to date well to open up for your questions. Thank you very much for the presentation and update colleagues, any questions or comments. Commissioner wynns. Thank you i want to thank you for the presentation and for all the work being done and interested in this i know you know, i have expressed any concerns many times maybe not to you but the staff so im interested in seeing what ive had my concerns pretty much addressed i mean, im not worried about that but interested in the gut about academic achievement from city departments and when this council gets around to talking about that because im interested in what i mean, my concerns were everybodys concerns we dont want people who are not experts, you know, sort of saying oh, we control the council and it is clear im pretty clear that will not happen im not worried about that i think this framework youve developed give us a good way to articulate that in such a way it is clear he appreciate that but im interested in as we get around you get around to those discussions what might come out of them and how valuable to us the hearing other peoples points of view so i just wanted to you know ask that our own staff that are there we get a way to actually have kind of detailed reports about how those conversations im hoping theyll be insight full we modesty want to go to some of those meetings ill be interested. Thank you, again, for that report. Wed like if you are interested in joining us there are quite a few of the but we have begun that work around the execution of academic achievements we are want to make sure that individuals understand the impacts of health what is happening in a childs height so everything we know but make sure it is clear were looking at the whole child. It is 36 there are a lot of work in the School District i i mean even though this is not our means the connection is something we worked on the Historic Services and getting the full model the things were doing now with the multi tiered systems and other systems we have in place that are interesting for the city departments whos Main Business those outcomes are to hear about because i know when i talk to people anecdotal people i dont know. Ive talked to in the peoples city departments oh, this is interesting so im hopefully, this is going to be a forum for valuable give and take discussion that helps us all to do better thank you. Commissioner norton. Thank you. I thought dr. Murase was ahead of me okay. Thank you. I want to thank you for the presentation ive not seen that framework it is some reading and rereading im interested in the 5 year plan is sounds like you having all are in the final process and the council will vote in late may could we get once that is adopted by the council ill be interested in seeing that not a need for an additional preservation presentation but see the plan how it aligns with the framework it is exciting see to see the plans i will monitor the work with interest thank you. Commissioner murase. Thank you for the comprehensive information it is going to take a bit to absorb it all but clearing good work and very broad outreach we want to commend ask my colleagues on the board weve always been very interested in this aggregated data i see most of data by ethnicity but ask for data that is aggregated by gender and race there was some Alarm National statistics about suicide rates amongst girls and other demographics were going down and also girls of color get lost i notice the male female but not breakdown by race id like to ask you include that level of data as well as gender gender is a deep issue amongst the young people and make sure that wither capture as much available there are challenges in capturing that data but until were counting folks were not asserting there i ask for that Additional Information as we move forward. Commissioner fewer. Thanks i think this framework is really impressive you know when we were voting on it i think designing it i know we had this goal of you know at this Unified School District we serve the same children and how can we combine the resources to make sure i think this is impressive the measures is you scanned it but even looking at the ot the current yours our schools and tt kind of stuff with housing and physical health and Mental Health and other health all the things it is yeah go back it is interesting this whole document i think so i feel liquor all those the influences like the criminal Justice System and incarcerated parents ross are all effecting the neighborhoods all the components actually, we talk in the School District about we know that it impacts a childs academic performance but unable to make sure or m measure it around what we do about it i think this is our first step that is really go back and thank you for sharing and commissioner norton that is really interesting so thanks so much.
