Superintendent came back to the board talking about diversity and a a foundation for continued success at those schools i mean willie brown commissioner mendozamcdonnell you have a question. I have a question im going to support this im curious on the schools were going to be giving preference to so most of the them made sense but im curious about petaluma and another school. So in choosing the schools gordon was one the schools where a significant number of children attend that school and where their academic outcomes and their mass and e l a scores are above the proficient rating a thats how that school was chosen and in petaluma geographys and other priorities and schools in 41924 we look to see which schools had the lowest number of requests for the middle school feeder it was morlum and we looked at the geography where its placed in relation to willie brown and well add a bus to provide opportunities for children to attend willie brown. So this was the logic behind it with the middle schools where those schools would have been feeding into so that will open up how will that be managed in terms of i dont have a larger number of the kids going like fwen e director heinecke man for example whats going to happen at director heinecke man not. Were going initially but as the school builds up there might be a different outcome for director heinecke man what does that mean with one of the feeders. So theyll continue to have director heinecke man as their feeders wore not taking away anything from the students if we request director heinecke man theyll get the tiebreaker to director heinecke man and if they request willie brown they could get a tiebreaker this is though the permanent we can assess the impact on the patterns and our opportunity to create a robust and difference enrollment and come back to the board before the patterns kick in. Were clear were starting with the single request level so any families that are at director heinecke man who feel they want to be at brown who were not entertaining that its part of the sixth grade. Thats correct. Commissioner maufas. Thank you im going to support this seems like everyone is saying this i didnt want people so think i wasnt im happy to hear the superintendents talk about the planning process and really focusing in on the diverse type of outreach and the Student Assignment meeting i appreciate you repeating that here. And if we come forward to the board with this as an item m i hope it can be an expended item we allow for room in our agenda to talk about flu fully whats happening at willie brown i know its televised 101 on the radio but i think this the precedent for us recent in the year id love to give the time and energy this deserves. To do outreach id like to hear from the community to speak to the audience thats linking in i live close to Caesar Chavez in the mission not in regards to a Elementary School but i think the families in the area where i live go to mri aluminum so i see the other way being a choice i think about your comments commissioner mendozamcdonnell by the time they get to middle school willie brown could be an option for the families that live on the edge of 92474 where Caesar Chavez is thoroughfare between the mission and fair view is something i want to support and those are any comments thank you president fewer and staff and all the Community Members that are joining in the process with us i appreciate that the outreach has been great and say a meeting in action i am surprised and im impressed thank you very much. Supervisor i want to say how historic it is to 0 open a brand new middle school in the spirit of the vision 2025 exercise that was led over a the past year i want to recognize staff for thoughtful and deep work around what we want willie brown to look like. I just had two comments one i want to be sure theres a language component available another willie brown historically thats under those circumstances not been in this part of town and again looking at the 21st century student we want to it emphasis the importance of culture competency and earlier i spoke to the students around the state times and the need that teenagers have for more sleep in the morning im hoping willie brown will help us to adjust our sleep time around learning i want to emphasize how excited i am and im be supporting in commissioner wynns. Thank you. I want to follow up on the issue of city halls advertise s schools when does the feeder pattern kick in next ye year . I mean for the following year. Its for the 17, 18 school year. Oh, because we should be the one thing that makes me nervous although im supportive of it i cant see any other way to do it obviously but its for some of the feeder patterns is taking longer for them to take hold. So i just think we should be aware if we, you know, we may be need to look for other ways to encourage people to make sure they get all the information about the feeder middle school how their children have are doing and come back or whatever we need to have focused outreach and information we should acknowledge this might make that more confusing if they make it a priority into two different schools it is to acknowledge we have competing tension we want people to have the services at willie brown and participation to if we think that you know how if this is undermining the other 2350erd patterns and see if we cant do something about that thank you commissioner wynns. I want to follow up i think upper talking about mri aluminum and it makes we unsees e easy ill support it for now but we need to watch that closely. That makes we nervous were saying oh, well add a bus to mri alumiiralom miraloma. We dont offer transportation in a cohort way i understand the reasoning and im sort of i guess im supportive of that fore now again, it feels like a one of oh, we feel like we have a bus over here we had that with our previous Transportation System it makes me feel like were moving in the wrong direction because if were going to have a Transportation System lets have a coherent one that makes sense i hope thats not true but i dont think it is because i think that commissioner Nortons Point is welltaken we should or im suggesting as a followup we should look at a Transportation System at the same time, we look at things like this so were going to vaelth the feeders in the middle school and also looking at the transportation the bus we provide and how it is related to this which we dont so far ami ive not seen in the annual report those are the buses weve provided and our kids are going from here to there and does this effect our segregations so i think my hope and trust actually, i recall it the Transportation System is pretty coherent weve said were only going to provide transportation for general education. For those purposes this is where they align with our goals were doing in the assignment system otherwise those are few schools that have pools and bay one of the things not recent policy turn a lot of schools that had no attendance areas we stopped picking up bus kids and taking them to those schools. So when you i said perfectly when you say as part of this to make this work add transportation that can seem to us and the public happen hazard but i think if we looked at the whole thing i dont mean change everything but if the transportation is working and how many people are riding buses that would be really good thank you. Commissioner maufas. So just in regard to my comments for miraloma i hope its clear that people that live in the mission were going to have that feed test. I want to say im wondering can you clarify we have a preference and a 902 plus preference so the 92124 preference would get the preference for example, if a group of students excuse me. From miraloma or taylor lived in the 2124 would have first preference not only they attended those schools but actually have the preference because the zip code; is that correct . Yes. I think thats correct because the way the tiebreaker system works is that the students its a hierarchy of tiebreakers students have combinations of tiebreakers this gives them a higher preference so if they come from the zip code and have a feeder that guarantees theyll have the highest preference there. Is my preference that we would film Willie Brown Middle School with residents of 92424 those other students have a Feeder School . Booif 92414 we if have one. So i feel that actually, if the superintendents brings a proposal that assures diversity id like the opportunity to open this discussion up to have the Hunters Point area discussion and see if we need to include them into this enrollment i hope the superintendent will have a responsibility plan innovate to have to add mri limb because they have a feeder middle school weve not had a Feeder School in the middle school i want to have the seats for the students to attend to have first preference to the Willie Brown School and if we can insure that by giving them a tiebreaker of the 92414 so not every fifth grader from George Moscone would automatically get into willie brown with you not having enough enrollment well then look at the tiebreakers to insure those students from malcolm x and others have priority for students to get to their Feeder School that is the new willie brown. Its our intention as the district is have feeder middle schools to have them in place in 20162017 or is it 17 he 18. I want like to attract a responsibility enrollment first id like vote b for this but i hope the superintendent has a really great kick ass plan to actually get robust enrollment thats robust to draw from this zip code. When we look at the graphics its a diverse neighborhood that neighborhood has been without a middle school for some time its our responsibility for those children who have chosen to go to those schools in the bayview we have them out we deliver to them a fabulous brand new middle school thats robust enrollment that actually is diverse. So i will vote for this but again superintendent to put it on record im hoping we can fill those seats with the 9244 residents and maybe theyve not going gone to the schools but willie brown is across the street so we would like to offer them that opportunity. Thank you very much. No more comments were ready for a roll call vote thank you. Ms. Jones. Mr. Chin. Mr. Haney. Ms. Maufas. Police vehicles. Ms. Norton. Ms. Wynns.

Thank you very much commissioner wynns id like to talk about the elective meeting we talked about the budget and reviewed again, the possessions weve taken on bills pending in the legislation cob now theyve been made available to you, we didnt change my positions so you can review them to refresher our memory or understand what things were advocating for but the main thing weve talked about the reserve cap that was included . Trailer bill and talked about the bill to repeal the letters thats been now kind of died . Legislator so we dont expect action at least until the new legislature is seated in january for our information that bill was not supported by democrats optional republicans. At some time we should have a discussion about the impacts or the impacts of the reserve council.
