Culture and competent care, multilingual contact tracing. Thank you for bringing that up. Supervisor yee thank you. This is everybodys responsibility. I dont see anybody taking responsibility right now. One last thing, in terms of resource distribution in districts, supervisor brought up this issue. My argument sometimes its counterintuitive. If you look at my district, theres really no nonprofit. Nobody wants to come out there to help 100 rvs parked out there. I think its too easy just to say one district has more need and that were not getting the resources.

Clerk thank you, very much. All right. We have quorum. Thank you. Greetings and welcome for joining todays board of education meeting. Knowing that we all know this, i would like to say these are stressful and strange times, times we never thought would be visited upon us. I thought it was strange enough trying to wait out and resist the person currently occupying the white house. But now things have gotten more bizarre with the same person trying to bully students, families and teachers and other staff back into school buildings. Thats what were dealing with. Thats what its come to. Today we will be absorbing our fall learning plan. I know many will find aspects they will object to but this will find solace in the approach. This is the time for us to pull together collectively to row lie upon one another to make this year as good and meaningful as it can be for our childrens sake. And to continue to find, within ourselves, a sense of grace and compassion and flexibility as we move for
