Important when we formed this office was we wanted to be accountable and the help of julie chan. We really approached this with a top intervention model and find out through d and f list exactly what students need what rather than throwing a huge fishing net out there trying to grab whatever we can and we go at it in a more targeted intervention way and work smarter rather than harder even though we work hard but we also try to work hard as well. Sites are located in regions for access to all students through our research we discovered that its best to divide the city into geographic regions and through those regions we drill down further to the neighborhoods in the schools to see exactly what classes are needed in what area and we provide those classes rather than just a blanket class. At all the schools we look at the needs of the students and provide those classes to the students. Once again, Online Learning which is very exciting with the move through a through g certified through
Excited. So, did you get your question answered . Okay, mr. Haney . Yes, so and thank you for answering my questions before. I sort of wanted to zero in because maybe it would be helpful for me to focus on one particular position and so i am kind of understanding how this operates in practice. And so, for the ten positions for Elementary School classrooms in art, so the thinking there is that despite the fact that we are going to get more money and that art is ipriority for our district and we are going to gain an improved fiscal situation next year that we will reduce our total number of art teachers in elementary by ten next year .

Bill, san der son overs see that and aprepared to answer. Good evening, commissioners. So realize that these numbers that we turned in and was published and all of the above many days
San francisco. Im speaking on behalf of this item as i think that it is important because it will help the Credit Recovery program become more efficient and it will help to see whether the program is working for students because we all know that we all learn in different ways, so like students may be learning like they may be able to learn better with a teacher as opposed to a different student, learning with independent study.

Many days ago. And it did not just happen this evening. And in light of the fact that we had additional allocations for the pete budget at the end of last week and so the staff is literally working on looking at pete allocations and everything right now this week and so we have to be on the safe side, and put the numbers there. And they may change. When we finish working on the pete allocation budget but we have to get through that process first. In addition, specifically with elementary arts, we have art is a unique situation just as secondary. Science is unique in the fact that art has credentials for a specific discipline.
