All happen. He took time off work, i took time off work and we had people willing to work with us to make it happen. Not everyone has that. There are some families that can even make trips because they dont have support. When we talk about experiential field trips, and making them available. We need to make them equitable. I would love to work with the district on writing some verbiage into that. The c. A. C. Would. Thank you. Thank you. Im going to excuse our incredible allstars.

Whereas district students in the community at large and we see critical benefits and Classroom Teachers on para educators of the district. Live in the community in which they practice their profession which promotes stability, Community Involvement and stronger ties between educators, students and families i whereas sfusd educators suffer acutely from the cities severe Affordable Housing shortage with 64 of sfusd teachers spending more than 30 of their income towards rent. An additional 14. 7 of teachers in sfusd are spinning more than 50 for the income towards rent. According to the federal guidelines four out of five teachers are burdened with housing costs. Whereas sfusd requires 3600 teachers annually, but is challenged by Teacher Education rate for proximally 10 annually. 30 of sfusd teachers leaving the district within the first five years of teaching. Often because of high housing costs, escalating cost of living. Whereas the city has fallen short of its needs for very low to moderate Income Housing having only produce 31 of affordable units needed to meet its share of the Regional Housing needs of january 15, 2015 to june, 2022 for this critically important housing source. Whereas in may have 2017 the board of education approved a resolution supporting a Pilot Program to develop affordable rental housing for sfusd educators where the price will be affordable for our where paraprofessionals, teachers leading to the project currently underway. Whereas proposition e will amend Affordable Housing and educator housing programs to expedite the development and construction of 100 affordable and educator housing in San Francisco for a wide range of sfusd educators. Building on the success of San Francisco model by rezoning sfusd sites to allow 100 educator housing as a principally permitted use. Cutting times for projects and construction. According to the office of the comptroller, proposition e will result in a minimal reduction in government cost on to the extent this legislation shortens this process the citys Affordable Housing projects cost due to shortage development and construction timelines. Lower inflation on market costs. Therefore be it resolved that the San Francisco board of education urges voters to vote yes on proposition e in the november 19 ballot. Thank you. We do have a few speakers sign up for this item. Susan solomon. Megan. [ name indescernible ] and annabelle. Good evening. I am a behavior analyst with the School District. I want to tell you about some and work with. A licensed vocational nurse who barely makes it more than somebody working at starbucks. He just had a baby last year, he commutes an hour every day to get to work. He is licensed to do procedures that i with a masters degree cannot do. He takes care of medically practical and fragile students we dont happen to these kids when a nurse cannot take care of them at school . They say home. They miss school. I know this nurse deserves reasonable pay and the ability to live in the city in which he works. It is more than that. The students deserve stable access to schools, and all students deserve stable schools. What happens when this nurse tires of commuting for pennies . He will find work closer to ho home. Spend more time with his family, as any of us would. What will that mean for the children he works with . Our educators deserve stable, Affordable Housing. Our students deserve stable schools. Please vote tonight to endorse prop e on bring us closer to the schools. Thank you. Good evening. I am the political director. Im here to urge you to support prop e. We all know it is not a secret that the affordability crisis it is not just impacting our families, but its also impacting many of our teachers and para educators are losing their homes to eviction, and rent increases. We need to do much more to ensure that housing stability for our teachers, Early Childhood educators and paraprofessionals stay here in San Francisco so they can continue providing quality education for our students and continue providing and making sure our schools are stable. When prop e passes it will help keep our educators in the city where they work and will stabilize our communities. We need prop need to make sure their healthy needs are being met. Prop e not only as going to support our currents, it will also help our future educators. Thank you. Hello again, commissioners, superintendent matthews, susan solomon. I will echo with the previous speaker said. Thank you to the commissioners who wrote this resolution. I appreciate it. In might of the very serious and sobering conversation that you all just had around supporting students. This is all pieces of the puzz puzzle. As people get priced out of San Francisco educators and families, it is disruptive to public education. If we can help bring stability and lower costs to housing so that the current statistic that the medium rent for a onebedroom apartment is 3,700. This is not sustainable. Thank you for presenting this resolution. I look forward to your vote. Thank you. Thank you. Any comments from the board of supervisors . I want to thank commissioner moliga for bringing this forward and letting me add my name to it. He did all the hard work. I am excited to vote on this and get the word out to the public. Thank you. [roll call] [applause] section m. Board members reports. Lets see we will start with the rules committee. Thank you. Rules met last week. We had two other items that were action items, Sexual Health and hivaids, prevention and instruction which we forwarded to the full board with a positive recommendation. Likewise for board policy High School Graduation requirements. We didnt talk about it at the last meeting. It has come up a number of tim times. Sb328 which was actually signed into law by Governor Newsom this week. It will mandate the districts to do a couple of things. Middle schools will not be able to start before 8 00 a. M. High schools cannot start prior to 8 30 a. M. The School Districts must adopt a law before july, or sooner, if they have collected bargaining and allow negotiation before the deadline. We are going to have to have some kind of analysis of this for our district soon. Ab1505 was also signed into law. That is arounds charter petitions and rules. Essentially we had hoped that it would remain if our board denied a charter petition or renewal petition, if we denied it would not have to go back to the state board. For our district, since we are a city in the county. It will have to go to the state board. Although the state board is changing its membership and its proclivity to rubberstamp charter schools. We are hoping that will be in our favor. And that we have some information about around split rule, which is essentially being kicked around for decades to try to undo a lot of the harm that prop 13 has done in terms of revenue coming into the School Districts. Corporate property would be taxed at a slightly higher rate. Homeowner and Small Business would not be adjusted upwards. The analysis of it right now is that it is not doing very well in polling. The governor is not committed to it and their other parties that have been given the cold shoulder. We are not at a point where it is necessarily going to pass. It is essential that we do find increased Revenue Sources for districts. That concludes the report from the rules committee. Thank you Vice President sanchez. Do you have a report from personnel . I do. My first report. I do quickly remember what we talked about. Two agenda items presentation around certified hiring reports. They are highlights from there, we started the school year off with a feeling 99 of our classroom vacancies were filled. That is really great progress there. Some of the comments around understanding of those breakdowns, particularly in professional education classrooms. I know that has been a concern that has been raised. As a gap from overall we are hearing from families out in the field. That is one take away of getting in more detail data there. Another area of opportunity is the approach around early hiring. When we do earlier hiring you have a more diverse pool so that is a practice that the team is going to be continuing for this upcoming recruitment season. And then knowing how important that is getting more teachers of color into our focal students particularly. Another area that is a challenge around our language pathways. We havent been able to address the longterm sustainability of finding our own language immersion vacancies. There is definitely an opportunity around how we are recruiting and partnering up. That aspect of the work for the certified hiring, and the other presentation, we are embarking on a huge Human Capital budget Management Systems change. Tonight the board approved that infrastructure investment. We are moving from a very paper oriented, to again something that is more modern, integrated, technology integrated, makes me happy um around understanding that we are embarking on a process um but also the Team Presented the seriousness around um the onboarding and the training aspect. That is going to be a major shift this is an two organizational change management. Looking at implementation of january 2021. The detailed timeline was presented. But i also stressed during that meeting was the importance around that feedback loop. I think we have talked about that, right . If we are going to embark on a major infrastructure transition we need to be able to quickly get that loop of where the caps are. I am excited about that management happening. Number two, report from board delegates to membership organizations. Any report . Number three, any other reports by Board Members . Okay. I wanted to give a few shout outs are quick.
