To this room and after whom this room is named irving brier i knew. I am 81. I was friends with his son steve and used to go to the brier house on the weekends. I was from the midwest. On holidays i didnt have anyplace to go. Irving brier, the man you named the room after used to espouse social justice and the importance of highquality Public Education. He used to lecture his boys, who you may know are you now prominent judges in the country and me who is not that, but i was there to receive the lecture many times about those messages. Highquality Public Education and social justice. He said those are the keys to the health of American Society and San Francisco society. By chance, because i didnt know we were going to be in this room. I didnt know about the plaque. By chance, that is wha what thee values are of the board of directors. There are about 20 of us. We are here to do all we can as regular citizens who have Different Networks and means and education and we represent 14 zip codes. We have six africanamericans, two latinos, the rest white. I am the oldest at 81. We go down to 28 in age. We are about half men and half women. You are not going to hear what i am doing. Good evening. I am pamela man. The current board chair of one Purpose School. Some of the speakers will provide responses to the staff report and questions and comments from committee meetings. Others are members telling you what we do at one purpose and why it matters. You would have heard from a parent and student. It was past the students bedtime. She went home. I hope we can submitter comments to the record. We engage in fundraising. We have been successful in raising approximately 1 million annually to provide the Wraparound Services and level of staffing required to truly serve the Underserved Community of the bayview. This is not a liability. It is an asset for stu sfusd ths why they come to enroll. They want services we provide. One purpose mobilizes individuals and foundations to invest in future success of bayview students as evidenced in the letters of support written to you. We work to expand the donor base each year to provide school year programs, wraparound Behavioral Services and Family Engagement and learning events the community would otherwise not receive. Good evening. I am david allen, Business Manager at one Purpose School. In terms every serve the ending fund values start at 478,862 for the 1920 year and increase to 6 82,00 82,000 4. This is between 18 to 19 of expenses. The California Department of education has rated one purpose in Good Condition with healthy reserves under their physical health criteria. This has been a positive sustained increase to our 1516 year. One purpose has demonstrated ability to improve and maintain strong physical health and reserves. We have strong relationships with Family Foundations and individuals to fundraise and expands the donor base to ensure longterm Financial Stability and has a budget to respond to uncertainties that may arise. The board and school are to make necessary adjustments to maintain the financial solvency should soft revenues not come as expected. There is no reason to expect this. Thank you. I am joy jackson morgan, executive director at third street clinic, Second GenerationHunters Point native. I come from a long line of educators. Most of the local schools and i am a former middle school and High School Math and science teacher. We heard startling statistics from mike that require context. It deserves context. Prior to last school year we were outperforming the district schools in the neighborhood. Let me ask you a trauma informed question in what could happen in the neighborhood that might have impacted the enrollment and test scores of not only one purpose but brett heart as well. We lost the c. E. O. , principal, some of the families, we got a new principal, lost key teachers. Last december we lost the new head of school. From the Community Angle what happened to the bayview but the real neighborhood called double rock . What happened last year . Double rock got uprooted from its community and placed into the new alice griffith. That was not an easy transition for families and obviously not easy for our students, not at one purpose or brett heart. Maybe this isnt the typical political conversation around Charter Schools versus district schools. This is what are we going to do as community of educators and families to support the students with the families with the resources they need. Dont judge us on one school when the entire neighborhood had a bad year. Thank you. Starting this year the culture and climate it has been a privilege to watch it expand to serve the students. We developed a matrix to fit the needs of the students and built the Wellness Center to talk when feelings. With the emotional curriculum we provided ways to deal with challenging emotions. We engaged in professional development to support from equity and trauma informed standpoint. Start our students are spending more and more time in classroom and engaging positively. We reduced number of School Discipline referrals 97 since the beginning of the school year. We lean away from suspending students but developing individual plans. We plan to push forward and continue to fine tune the school wide systems as data indicates this is working. I would like to say it is an honor to be part of the team as the commitment to the scholars is seen. The unwaiverring dedication to the whole child no matter the need. I look forward to continued work at one purpose. Good evening. I am Joe Steinberg the enrollment manager at one Purpose School. In the findings and facts section is the discussion of the enrollment. Our current enrollment is not 85 students but approximately 100. During the first three years we demonstrated strong enrollment from 75 to 160 students. It declined for two reasons. Despite the projected growth we were offered no additional classrooms. We had to combine two second grade classes and were unable to offer the kindergarten class. Second as discussed the planned de parter of the founding principal impacting enrollment last year. We have been successful in working to recreate a environment and support and nurture the students to be productive and are confident to grow enrollment and meet projection of 118 students for the next school year. Critically important we have grown and strengthened with the community partners. Last year we reached to over 60 community organizations, daycares and providers. We plan to grow the list of partners this year. Thank you. Good evening. I am peter and a member of the board of directors for the last four years. I am speaking on behalf of the principal who was here last night. Some of you may have met her. She is sitting in a hospital in oakland as her partner underwent kidney surgery today. These are her remarks. First finding of the staff report indicates we have not produced increases in academic achievement for all significant groups of students and has not produced it equal to district schools. We recognize that one not both of these criteria must be met. We are the first to recognize our academic achievement is not where we want it to be. We have taken multiple steps to refine our program to ensure we acseller rate scholars proficiency. 201718 was the first year of testing data with the first third grade of 20 students. These scholars showed stronger results and than brett heart elementary in ela and math, the school where most students would otherwise attend. They were on par or slightly higher in la and slower in math with the bayview average as whole. 201819 was the second year of testing after a year marked by transition of the principal, unexpected departure of c. E. O. And loss of several Staff Members. 20 third graders tested and they achieved at rates on average equal to comparison schools. The 12 fourth graders where deficiency declined is tiny. We find it hard that the future of one purpose of databased on such a sample size for one grade for one year. Thank you. I am mark atkinson, founding board member of one Purpose School and longterm resident of San Francisco. It was a pleasure to be with you tonight. It was particularly enlightening to hear the passion with which you rose up against false narratives. For a brief moment i thought we might be able to correct the record on your own false narrative. It is appreciated that the staff said we accidently characterized your tk5 school as high school. We appreciate that. We would be more grateful if there was further diligence around the other insufficiencies in the report. It is one thing to say we were at fault for not stocking feminine hygiene products. That would not be a requirement of a school serving tk through 5 students or to require the Suicide Prevention plans for grades 7 through 12 be in place. We have serving tk through 5. There were things that had nothing to do with the fact we are tk through 5 that you put on the same level. We dont provide definitions of long time english learners. It is unclear how the state providing a definition could be a deficiency when one of the two only applies to the same students. It does not apply to us. You want to require provisions of services for homeless and foster students and say we dont have them on page 171 and page 7 it states we will comply with those requirements. There is no deficiency. Health and safety code 120325 we are deficient because we require an exemption for immunization and i it is on 162 of the chart. That was your time. Good evening. I am karen rath man. In evaluating the program they found it in line to the common core and california state standards. To include both integrated and designated english Language Development and extensive time for professional Development WeeklyEarly Release and dedicated days. We appreciated these affirmations. As part of the work toward Continuous Improvement we made significant shifts to the Academic Program including common state standards and Science Standards to ensure grade level instruction across classrooms including bookworms and english and mystery science. Alignment of the english Language Program as well as English Proficiency assessments. This includes english Language Development. Investment in professional learning, bringing on dean of instruction and culture to provide professional Development Sessions and elbow to elbow coaching to support teachers in implementing the academic and curriculum. The staff report raised a few questions that i my colleague david will answer. Thank you. I am doctor david atkins. As one of the four physicians to start the save st. Lukes campaign that took a decade and resulted in if building of a 500 million hospital for our communities south of market, i can tell you that in the decade i thought i was asked why not just let Hunters Point and the mission and bayview go to the county. County can take care of them. If there are nine hospitals north of market, perhaps our community deserves the dignity of choice. That more than one choice. Please understand, with conviction when you feel that you have the right choice, that it is not the same thing as providing people the freedom of choice to make their own decisions for their own children and for their own families. There are many, many choices north of market. There needs to be more than one south of market. With regards to grade level sufficient efficiency. All students are engaged daily in grade level learning. Students working both below and above grade level including remedial and extension. We have detail on intervention as detailed in the charter provision reflecting the needs of the students who come to school with preestablished learning gaps. The v in vip at one purpose stands for vulnerable. We want your most vulnerable children. We are not here to take. We are not here to usurp. We are here solely to give to our community. Thank you. Good evening. I am mark miller. I support one purpose. I would like to respond to three areas of the Charter Renewal petition marked by the staff as insufficient. First. Element a section 4. This section titled how learning best occurs is presented as a broad outline of conditions. Contrary to the staffs assessment, the three items marked insufficient are addressed extensively in the petition. The plans and strategies to support students not meeting pupil outcomes are described on pages 84 through 93. That is 11 pages of information. The Research Based instructional design and strategies are described in detail on pages 66 through 84 of the petition. The instructional strategies for special education and limited english are 93 through 112. The description of annual goals for all pupils and each subgroup is marked insufficient. I would like you to refer to just one of the examples of the goals appearing in this section. Page 116 there is a goal which describes the specifics of a plan for addressing proficiency and ela as measured. Third in the staff report element b is marked insufficient without explanation for several outcome based and goal based items. In the one purpose petition the goals and measures are articulated in detail on pages 117 through 126. These are one, fully aligned with l cat, two reflect academic annan and the nonacademic outcomes. I am Susan Davenport the finance chair of one Purpose School, a proud member. In addition, in element c this articulates how benchmark skills will be developed and assessed and includes the annual goals. Please refer to that and note we have been miss categorized. I would like to respond to one additional area marked insufficient in the staff matrix. Element c methods of assessment four insufficient efficiencies are noted. These are not insufficient or deficient. Extensive list every liable measures using the nwea and portfolios appears on pages 1238 through 1 128 through 131. 127 through 128 affirms the assessments align to the curriculum. No deficiency. Pages 132 through 6 provides detailed table providing minimal required performance level necessary for every assessment measure. There are no deficiencies. Pages 136 through 9 detail the use of all data by students and teachers and the school and use in reporting to care takers and district and state. No deficiency. Please read. Thank you. On rorrable Board Members. Back off the microphone. I am pastor at the hope church for 50 years. Semi retired. What i am doing. I am 88 years old. I come from east texas to San Francisco. Because racism horrible, bitterness. Not only that but the School System was outrageous, segregated. I dont have time. I come up under that system. I know what is the operation. One purpose has been a constant be in our community over five years has been the center of the community and support. The schoolworks with hundreds of students and families. Pastor walker helped one purpose to employee introduced to be introduced four years ago one block from where the pastor also with Tabernacle Community development corporation. Tcd supports one purpose. A fully based Development Group of churches approximately 10 churches. Also i recruited recently two churches. I asked them to send a letter. Hopefully they sent letters and you got those letters. I do not understand how any serious Educational Organization or individual can be against africanamerican, no name on the latinos. Forgive me. I will get it down. Pacific islanders. Elected officials have been talking about closing. That is your time. Sorry, pastor. Good evening. I am a finance manager at tech. Supporting the school and budgeting financial management. We have been working since the schools inception. It is a level that is not for charters this young. About 450,000 to start this year or 18 of the total budget is to maintain the fund balance in the multiyear projection. It is a foundation for economic uncertainties and support strong cash balances. They are highly engaged in the financial matrix of the school. The board asked detailed questions to understand the budget to actual variances each month. There are monthly meetings with the School Finance committee to monitor the School Finances. The staff noted the large grants and donations as insufficient. This budget line here is in line with the schools Historical Data and i would argue an asset. We have an extremely effective fundraising of 1 million plus in each of the past three years. This is not a large donor. These are individual donations between 5 to 10,000 as a result of the Excellent Development team we have built. Over 1 million each year into sfusd that would not be available for these children. The school had challenges. We have maintain
