The virus grows, if you follow the metaphor that bullying is a systemic virus, then the environment has to change so the virus cannot grow and the only way the environment changes is if youth and adults begin to speak with one voice about changing the social norms that allows it to happen. It makes sense to most of us, you have it khaifrpb the social norms. We must educate. But we must go beyond thinking more rigor will get us better achievement. We have to remember a school is a community and i...

I like that, thats great. Something that really resonated with me that tom said, if you simply tolerate diversity you are aspiring to mediocrity. Can you talk about the ambassadors, adults taking an active role to intervene when we witness bullying. All of us are humbled by the virus, how systemic its become. How do you get your hands around that . For me its top down and bottom up. We are Authority Figures and what we do for our children and thats care, but we need to empower them to become the...

Antiimmigrant messages coming out in the media. In new york, you probably remember this, some of you, in 2008 High School Students were going out on a weekly basis beating up immigrants that they thought were supposedly undocumented immigrants. The students all knew about this but the adults didnt. It results in a hate crime, a murder. A couple things i wanted to bring up. What does it take to unseat bias . First of all, we have to look at all the places that people are getting that violence, th...

Buses and have a way of diverting errant motorists. After you get past that lights, there are some actual lights there, so you can return people. We also, since these are all professional drivers will actually go from righthand to lefthand drive and make a clockwise turn, so that the buses pull straight into their bays and its far more efficient for people getting off. On the way out, the reverse happens. The buses are now switching back to get on the righthand side to approach the bay bridge or...

Operationalize it, those things in the Public School who are working so hard to meet the required mandates. Schools are driven by mandates, academic achievement, achievement, enrollment. But the conditions in which the virus grows, if you follow the metaphor that bullying is a systemic virus, then the environment has to change so the virus cannot grow and the only way the environment changes is if youth and adults begin to speak with one voice about changing the social norms that allows it to ha...

Important things to address prejudice. The first is getting it know each other, talking about it, getting it out in the open. The second is equal status, were not just feeling sorry for those poor little whatevers that are difrplt than us, but we are all equal. The third one is working together and i think about the giants, were all for the team, not all together not as if we are color blind and color doesnt exist but with our diversity. The fourth is with power and authority, the person who sta...

Funding by district. How it appeared in 2013 and it compares in 2014. Were going to do the match of the district and we know it isnt representative of all district but we know what district were picking you up from. We have the data that a lot of the kids are coming out of district 5. I want to point out the Citywide Fund at the bottom is over looked at but that Citywide Funding is cruel when it comes to target some of the places in the city. The workforce plan for example, we may have a program...

District. This is the last question. Can i turn it over to you . So the last question was around the summer and how do we decide. So in this slide you can see that this is similar to the last rfp in which we partnered with the school district. We wanted to simplify the application. So really it was in the spirit of trying to simplify the process so they didnt have to submit duplicate applications. And in the last slide in that it describes how the Guiding Principles we used. Once again similar t...

If we didnt, it was because of that that we introduced the leftrunning ramp that avoids that crossover at that point where it causes a problem. Okay. Director reiskin. So i have one similar question. Do we know kind of at peak future capacity how many vehicles per hour would be going through that interchange . And would this be a triggered signal that is triggered as a bus approaches . Yes. Were modeling on 2030 projections for ac transit of 120 bus and hour. So two buses a minute during the pea...
