McCombs a long-standing member of our community he tried to slip something kind of by us and then we found out that actually we wanted to recognize what what you wanted to recognize so we thank you so much for

coming tonight and would like to hear your presentation well thank you very much I didn't very much of a presentation what she's referring to was a gift my family foundation was able to make and one reason we were able to do so is because having sold the you know champion here a couple of years almost two years ago it allowed us to have some

money to put back into the community and after 60 years and as the newspaper publisher it was really a pleasure to be able to do that because this is a community that things are tied together here and unlike many other communities and news people I've always felt that the school district was the one thing even though we have two cities the one

thing the community has in common and that by paying attention the school district was important and I was told my reporters go out and get as many kids pictures in there as possible so that they'll have something to put up on the refrigerator wall you can't do that all the time with the computer stuff but anyway it was our pleasure to because my

wife worked she helps start head start in this community she taught here a number of years and she worked with a lot of people who needed a little help and so and her memory and in honor of Wayne Joseph who was particularly behind this program was our honor to be able to do that so I would like to say that mr.

McCombs donated $10,000 to student scholarships at the end of the school year and $10,000 in honor of our retiring superintendent mr. Wayne Joseph to the Hope Center so if Liz Lara and mr. Joseph would like to come forward this is your turn what an honor what an honor to to be honored this way and really it's it's when we

began the project you know it was mr. Joseph's really like his love project it was from his heart and so to see the community embrace it is nothing short of incredible and incredibly gratifying and just a blessing really so with this money we are able to really so back into our families um well it's good to that I'm

able to share with you just in the past three weeks going on four weeks we've served over 600 students and families alone preparing the first school and that's getting them clothing shoes backpacks hygiene supplies a lot of things our shells are now pretty bare and so it's it's a great I mean it comes at a great time where we're able to

restock and continue to assist a lot of needy families so thank you once again from the bottom of our hearts really we're able to continue the work that mr. Joseph's and vision from the very beginning and continue to serve our community and our students and our families so thank you mr. McCombs on behalf of the many people

that your donation will serve I want to thank you it really is a gracious magnanimous magnificent gift that you've given and it really speaks volumes about your character because it's a transcendent act to be able to give graciously like this and it's an honor for me to accept this the way you've given it so thank you again mrs. Rusk oh now I know mr.

McCombs alluded to his wife being involved with the school but what he failed to mention was that he was a school board member and actually mr. McCombs I have the school board in my yearbook so you were a school board member when I was in high school thank you so much I'll tell our youth all the time I want you to grab like become a

mr. McComb so you've been here for all these years and I still remember you gave me so many advices when what I was first elected and really kept me going for last ten years so thank you for you and your wife you guys are truly the blessing for our community and I pray for your health all the time

and I want you to continue to be with us thank you Don do you want to get them to stand right here in front or you got it all right thank you very much now we have measured G update doctor in field would you introduce the next and final presentation this evening I'm a excited to have mrs. Sandra Chen and mr.

Gregg's deter to present a presentation on measure G to go over the progress that we've made so far so tonight board I think you'll get a a thorough presentation on measure G monitors gets warmed up before we can start president fights members of the board superintendent and field thank you for the opportunity to bring you an update

on measure G dr. Anfield is excited about this it's are we we've got one sign ready to go okay so tonight we've got four objectives that we want to make sure we address for the board in order to go forward and giving you a floral landscape of where measure G is today we thought we'd take a little

step backwards and refresh your memory of what led us to this point so we're gonna talk a little bit about the facility's master plan that was put together back in 2016 and how that led to where we are today then we're gonna dive right into an update on measure G projects that have commenced to date talk a little bit

about where our funding has been mamataji and then what do we go from here so first you'll you'll remember this finder right here that WLC architects prepare for us this is the the 2016 facility's master plan that was put together with many people's effort and want to orient you to the way that we have split up this facility's master

plan if you take a look at it everything in the facility's master plan is really categorized in these five areas we've got new construction which includes a construction or reconstruction of new schools we've got the modernization category in the facility's master plan which model which modernize these schools that are of age 25 years or older we also have a safety and security

component which I know is of top priority to our district and to you additionally we have the category called additions renovations and improvements this is really the category the big-ticket category where it really includes the additions or renovations to the site and this is a culmination of effort by the stakeholders who are involved in the meetings at the time the

most facility's master plan was prepared and lastly we have the furniture category and III although that there's a separate category for furniture I do want to clarify that we are not going out to bid furniture for the entire school district it just is not frugal to do so and it's not ideal because we want to modernize the spaces first and as

projects are in action and they're coming to a completion we will outfit these spaces with new furniture and you'll recall that the facility's master plan was built on six guiding principles tech safety and security technology evolution maintenance parody and sustainability we want to make sure that all of our school sites are secured from the perimeter with the most up-to-date technology that

connectivity is served throughout the campus we want to make sure that our facilities can also evolve with the latest instructional technologies and making sure that we take a proactive stance when it comes to maintenance of our facilities and of course very importantly you want to make sure that any improvements we put in our school sites involves parity across the school

sites as you know we have 35 sites so that's a lot to achieve and making sure that 80 projects we put into place are sustainable over a long period of time so starting with a new construction category what I want to outline for you here is a list of projects that were included in the facility's master plan

so under new construction there was an inclusion we discussed the need to reconstruct you know high school we also discussed the need of a second school in our preserve community and a possible future elementary school somewhere in our growth zone I don't want you to focus too much on the dollar amounts as those were the numbers estimated two years ago and as we know

those are no longer the case but it gives us a frame a ballpark of what type of means we were talking about the next category is modernization in this current stage of our capital facilities program we have 11 schools that are of age and you can see most of these schools are in the chino hills' area except cattle elementary and that is

because under measure m which was 12 years no that was more than 12 years ago that was 1416 years ago we addressed most of the modernization efforts at the schools that were in Chino under the safety security component you will see this chart that lists all of our schools the gravy in all of our elementary schools the light blue

all of our junior High's and k-8 and the dark-blue are five high schools every school will have a safety security component I know this is a top priority to the board and as we get into the updates later on you'll see where we are with each of them this is the big-ticket item category that I spoke to earlier

the addition of innovation and site improvement again all school sites under the facility's master plan identified certain buildings or certain additions that were necessary to increase or enhance the learning environment of the school sites this category may include a brand new NPR a brand new signs wing at the school sites or gymnasium or Aquatic Center and they mean just a few and

that's why or replacement of portables on across the board that's why this category is a really high dollar amount of 600 and roughly over six hundred thousand five million dollars so as you can see when we add up all those categories the estimated total back then at the time was over a billion dollars and that established the base needs for

our district at that time and thus the effort began with former superintendent Joseph thank you for being here and the stakeholders at the school sites in our facilities team and architect went out to the school site and began the effort of campaigning for a bond so just refreshing your memory on the time length in November 2016 the bond measure

of 750 million dollars was passed by our voters a few months after that in January you graciously approved the implementation of first two series of the bombs so we are not able to implement obviously all of the projects at the time so the program was divvied up into multiple series and I will share with you in just a moment what series

one will look like February 2017 our citizens Oversight Committee was formed and I know many of the members are here in the audience today a month after the board approved the sale of our first issuance and May of last year we received the funding of two hundred and eight million dollars of the 750 million so that's considered series one of measure G so

this is a picture of the thermometer I certainly do not expect you to see the fine print on the thermometer but just to bring refresh your memory of what was it that you had approved back then there were two thermometers series one and two and this one is series one and you'll see that projects included in series one

were in those categories that we discussed earlier new construction modernization of schools safety security addition renovation and a sprinkling the furniture into those projects so from there what I'm going to do is turn over to mr. Sakura who is going to walk us through in each of those categories what projects were under series one that we have begun Thank You Sandra good evening

everybody so 2016 facilities master plan in the the categories we start with new construction and new construction at this point consists of the reconstruction of Chu high school and potentially the construction of preserved school number two in the community with Chino high school we have a number of phases and we are currently in the bidding and award phase for phase

zero zero at the site and then DSA is currently reviewing reviewing plans for phases one and two and that is a aerial view of the existing campus as it sits today this is the rendering from WLC architects of the new school site and we will begin with phase zero which consists of relocating some existing athletic fields renovating existing

athletic fields and just moving things to make way for the new school site which is built which will be built for the existing field sit today and that is phase one which is the administration wing the classroom buildings and the library as well as the parking facilities on the north side of things campus phase two will cover the

rest of the campus which includes the PE facilities gymnasium the Aquatic Center the theatre and other related facilities to complete the school sizes now going back to phase one this is the site plan for what to be in renovated or refurbished we've got the varsity baseball field will receive some work the varsity softball field where it currently sits today is in the way of

the new building so it's being moved closer to the varsity baseball field in the saving footprint of where the existing junior varsity baseball field sits and then there will be some track and field facilities built into that area as well additionally and I wish I had a pointer that will have a point if it works but this LED screen just sucks

up the sucks up the color the pointer so as well as the underground utilities and infrastructure that will feed the new school site there's a number of electrical lines that are in the way that need to be relocated to make room for the new buildings this is another rendering of the new campus looking from the south end I'm sorry from the north

end looking to the south we had another rendering of the library building as well as an interview of the library and from what I've seen from WLC architects their renderings pretty well spot-on to what's going to get built so testament to Jim and what they do this is a interior rendering of the office area and library and then as far as

additional reconstruction additional construction goes we jump into the cow arrow or the preserve community area currently at the top of the screen there in circled in red is the existing Cal arrow Preserve Academy campus you've got Main Street that runs north and south from the kalanoro campus it intersects Pine Avenue there directly in the middle and then directly south the Pine Avenue

is where the new school site will be at some point located that is the land that's been set aside but Louis company for for the school site and then East preserved loop is there for the right or to the east side and that is the new school site location again another rendering of the school site campus there has not been any real

design work the the buildings you see there to the the left those would be city facilities and then that is also a city park there which would be to the north of the school site and it's currently in the planning phase and still there's been some discussions that take place but we're still in the planning phase for that the second

category then is modernization the scope for modernization consists of a number of things but as WLC has said in the past there's the half twos and the want to use so the half twos are the code requirements and that consists of a DA accessibility requirements required by the state to improve access from the street from the parking lots the

sidewalks the thresholds going into the classrooms drinking fountains and restroom accessibility the wheelchair left on the stage fire alarm upgrades possible revision of existing fire sprinklers and then some possibly some structural upgrades as well and then the the the want to Tsar the basic needs that are replacing upgrading HVAC systems management systems roofing electrical and plumbing infrastructure

that could be repiping bringing a new electoral service to the campus replacement of doors water heaters seismic items as needed and then a replacement of finishes whether that be floor finishes wall finish the ceiling finishes lighting throughout both interior and exterior repainting and then at Sandra mentioned a sprinkling of new furniture in the modernization sites as they are completed

now as far as the phases of modernist you know in series 1 series 1 the issuance of bond funds we have phase 1 which will cover cattle elementary Lydell Elementary Oak Ridge Elementary and then phase 2 which covers Country Springs royal ridge and Iowa high school there's the second group of schools in series 2 that's currently in design

Butterfield Eagle Canyon hidden trails Canyon Hills and Townsend junior high school as far as the modernization codes and the buildings up will you modernize everything that you see there and this is cattle which and we're currently in the bid and award fades everything you see there on the map that's in dark red those are the buildings that will

receive the heavy modernization work the building to the south there and the orange that is the new classroom wing that was built under measure M it may receive some technology upgrades and things to bring it up to par with the rest of the campus as it's finished this is Lydell currently in the bid and award phase and same thing the dark red

buildings there or what will be be modernized and I should also say that both or the three schools cattle level in Oak Ridge will also be bringing in portable classrooms to serve as interim housing so while a block of classes moves out into the portables those classrooms will be then be modernized we have DSA approval of the buildings at

cattle we're fitting them shortly within the next month we'll hopefully have an award of a bid to bring to you to get that work started and then Lydell element or I'm sorry my de locas model Elementary was just approved by DSA today for interim housing and Oak Ridge is going to be sa next week so as things

progressed with VSA approval we'll be bidding these so now moving on to Oak Ridge same thing again the buildings in dark red are the buildings that will be be modernized and then we've got some interior interior renderings of classroom spaces and basically what you see there would be in finishes flexible furniture and then instructional technology throughout and this is just a typical classroom in

phase 2 country Springs and rolling ridge and basically they are the same site just like the other three schools schools shown or the buildings shown in dark red or what will be modernized and this country Springs we're currently in the DSA review but the review phase and we expect GSA approval within the next month or two and this is rolling ridge

and then again some renderings of the interior this would be a potential computer lab at one of the sites I have a high school modernization like the others the dark red is Libyan is what being modernized we've relocated 12 portable classrooms the more that yellow square is to the field area and then where the yellow square this will be the

new science lab that will be built two-story building the portables have been relocated they've been they were occupied as of the first day of school this week and construction will be starting shortly as soon as our bids are opened on the science lab building and then this is just a rendering of the computer lab for Iowa High School

and with that I will now turn it over to Martin Silveira our director of MOC talk about security good evening everybody so under the safety of security back to that same matrix where it shows all the sites that we are going to be addressing safety and security and in the groups this slide shows some of the components

that we have addressed and also implemented so we have single point of entry modifications keyless access control hardware security cameras intrusion alarm upgrades and the public address system some of the upgrades that have already been completed single point of entry we're at 96% proud of that keyless access chaparral Elementary Levi Dickey Elementary and Rhodes Elementary are complete the security cameras we

have Liberty and Woodcrest that have systems in place as well as downloadable high school intrusion system liberty and Woodcrest are complete and under the PA systems we're about 96% so close to completion there said we've won the safety and security the high schools are going to be the first group that goes out and we're right and right on schedule I I will

right on schedule the next group will be tied to the modernization schools and get those rolled out at the same time did you hear us so that's the next group and then as we dive into the last schools of the modernization and then finally completion of the safety and security upgrades for all the schools okay so now

we're at additions and renovations and site work and like the other make matrixes you've seen we've got the same the same basic layout of schools if you're called the board approved moving forward with the renovation of renovation additions to science labs so Ramona and Magnolia we will be renovating existing science labs and Briggs is receiving a new science

building the first two schools from London Magnolia did not need a new science building they just needed existing buildings renovated to get them on par with everything else and then high school we added the science building there and then the board recently gave direction to use measure G funding for renovation of the El Rancho school site in preparation for the

allegiance campus this is a site plan of Briggs if you've been by there any time this week you'll see a brand new parking lot up front with two driveways now instead of the one which was a nightmare for what I understand for parents yep maybe not as much of a nightmare anymore but the parking lot is complete the new science

building once it's complete it will consist of eight classrooms and the graphic to the right there shows the break breakdown of the floor plan itself and that's a rendering an exterior view of the Science Building and Jim says it's gonna look just like that Magnolia junior high school renovation the building there that's highlighted in yellow that is the Science Building and

then that's breakdown of the floor plan that consists of eight classrooms six of those are science rooms and they will be fully renovated and then like Magnolia Ramon a junior high school same thing a purple building there this is building to receive renovations and then there's the floor plans a rendering of a interior of a science lab there's only

priests three students though minimum day okay another rendering another view I have a high school the new science building the building there in green will be the new science wing two stories total of seven rooms on each floor along with restrooms and an elevator of course but that is the floor plan there and then another beautiful rendering of the

exterior no president the rendering of the interior so as you can see we are breathing pretty busy and this is a chart that shows the summary of what was just discussed with you all the projects under series 1 and this slide I programming in such a way so that I could keep my head straight and I hope it will help you as well so you can

see that Chino high school under new construction is in multiple phases right now part of that phase 0 is a phase 0 of that school is dirt under bid and ready to be awarded phase 1 and 2 is currently under DSA for review and typically in that review period is more than six months so I don't want you to think that

phase 1 & 2 is going to be out to the road for out on the street for bidding soon the next category is the modernization that's the phasing of the the 11 schools we've got 3 ready to go out for bid an award on the interim housing we've got to narrowly under DSA for review and the remaining six in the

design phase for the security and safety measure you you've heard Martin speak earlier about this even though they are split in the different groups our goal of course is to expedite those projects as quickly as possible because it has to do with security of our schools and then lastly under the renovation edition phases we've got four schools that have

commenced with a yella high school science wing under DSA for review and then the other three still being designed and then we spoke earlier about our preserve school number two currently in the planning stage now I know of course you are interested in how much money has been expended since we received two hundred and eight million dollars we will be accounting or

actually we've been accounting for the project expenditures in detail still in those categories that we mentioned earlier under those those categories by school by project you can see in this we also added an extra column of costs it's called general program costs in order to manage such a massive inevitably there will be costs that are unnecessary to oversee the program too

there are a cost associated with the cost of issuance of bonds those costs will be captured in that category and you'll see here that you got bond issuance of about four hundred thousand dollars you've got some additional legal audit election costs and these costs will increase as we move forward on the issuance of future bond measure excuse

me future issuances under measure G there's also a category of payroll there are some individuals in the school district that our fund is specifically out of measure G because your sole job is to assist with measure G I won't go over that in bit so altogether as of the end of the last fiscal year we've expended a

total of 15.6 million dollars and I assure you we keep track of these dollars to the pennies we want to make sure that we can be held accountable and that we can tell you exactly where the dollars went here's another recap we started out with two hundred and eight million dollars since the end of last fiscal year we've

accrued 2.5 million dollars in interest so our beginning balance was two hundred and ten after expending in those categories we are ending with roughly a hundred and ninety five just under one hundred ninety five million dollars with all those projects ready to go the road ahead is not going to be status quo nothing stays consistent well the

particular the only changes to the change itself right the only thing constant is the change in itself so I itemized some factors here to remind us that these are these are the variables that we will encounter as we move forward in this program this is going to be a program that lasts at least 10 years the economy is certainly going to

change in that cycle so will the demographics and when our demographics change our project needs might change the needs that were captured in the measure in the facilities master plan might change and when those change we will change with it the construction climate we were just informed by our cm this morning that there is a variable of

an increase of 5% per month currently so you can not focus too much on those 2016 estimates and we will bring to you updated numbers as we get closer to to that stage and if you look at that star right there if that curve represents our economy we are currently at that second hump and I think everybody is hoping that the economy

doesn't slow down and tanked but at some point it's gonna have to come back to make the next cycle so it wouldn't that does happen hopefully we can capture on the benefits of that and capture some some better construction climate at that time and all that to say to you we will be proactive as we move forward on the

program and mining these factors and of course this program is going to be managed by more than just the three people you heard from today we have a whole team of staff that support us and we want to be transparent and show you that in this chart the positions that are completely highlighted in in teal are a hundred percent funded by measure

G and the positions that are a half highlighted or fifty percent funded by measure G but the projects the program itself is divided up in the planning stage the construction state and administrative support so those are the people from our district and I know many of them are here if you just show it raise your hand real quick these are

some of the faces behind those positions and we are also supported and augmented by our very fabulous construction teams beginning of course with our fabulous architect of record you fellows in the audience and he is accompanied by the three construction management firms that the board has approved to support series one measure Jean and you can see that each of the firm there has already

been awarded the project that we just discussed and they will be supporting us from the beginning to the end of completion and of course our citizens Oversight Committee will be watching us closely on every project that moves forward every dollar spent and I know many of them are in the audience if you're here from COC please raise your hand and I know some

of them are stuck up in the lobby so sorry I can't introduce all of you but we are looking for we do have a vacancy on the committee we are looking for a business rep help out we have a vacancy and with that we conclude our presentation to you I know it's only 60 slides I know you wish we had 45 more of

pictures won't we not to you next time mr. na yeah when I speak to parents and our stakeholders their main concern especially about days as regards to the safety and it's great to see that we have a one point of entrance and that's going to protect our children and in great manner however even though we're spending 1 million

dollars I haven't seen anything that regards to our personnel especially our security personnel I like to see updating their equipments from walkie-talkies to let vest if it's viable something that is part with our SROs if we don't have investment on our security personnel sometimes our buildings could fail our doors can fail but we wouldn't need protection of our

security guards so they could protect our staffs and our students so I'd like to ask mr. dr. Enfield if we could have a presentation of updating plan for our security personnel in near future what you should also include training with our police departments so that if something do happen we could work as one body and in those emergency

cases every seconds would count so I think it's going to really benefit our school district if we have the best support for our security personnel thank you but I just want to clarify that training on that type of thing cannot come out of measure that are the bond money is that correct so it would come out of our general fund all right that's

correct we will just we will review that separately for measure G okay but I wanted to thank you for the presentation I know there are some other questions that I have shared with you that I'll follow up with you later but thank you so much for for doing this and for giving us some dollar amounts you know

me I like the dollar amounts so thank you mister you know for auntie no high school you know I'm excited with the lycorine because the library is the hub of the school and not only contains library books but it's more than that it's a media place where people can socialize so in that in mind the library is going to be very multi dynamic and I

said we won't be changing to continuously so I think that's that's a wonderful thing and also I was wondering for measure G I'm gonna say something up maybe they came from my imagination of this term but something called Raptor system what is was that part of measure G because that was such a great idea I really I think it's awesome yes the

Raptor system was funded with measure G it is fully in place at all 35 of our school sites being used as of this past Monday essentially it is the system that any visitor or volunteer that shows up the campus they swipe their driver's license or ID card it prints them checks sex offender databases throughout the state and then

prints them if they're authorized to proceed to prints to my ID badge or with a picture on it and there let it is that's very good it's a great job and also I was thinking more of the teachers you know when they moved from their portable what is the duration of all that stuff they're talking about two

months away from their classroom because there is that distraction right teachers leaving from there plus or I'm going to a portable so that would be like six months on I would suspect the duration will hopefully be six to eight weeks maximum or pervades almost we will try to hit the breaks Thanksgiving break Christmas break oh why see spring break to make those

you know we do the work make the move on those breaks and and also you mentioned the keyless that is a good idea because people do lose their keys it's a search and degree of a master key and when they lose it they screw up the whole school system so with that you have to worry about that anymore

yeah so let me add the bigger benefit to the keyless system is that manage sight when it's complete will have the lockdown button in the office so if they need to lock the school down they hit the button they lock all doors on campus immediately that is very good very good thank you well that and it doesn't cost the site

when you lose your keys miss miss are you know the presentation was well done TIF time I know this so thank you mrs. Blair since you addressed the wraptor system I was going to save this question for my board comments but since you brought it up for parents who are undocumented who don't have a driver's license what process have we implemented so that

they can still volunteer and participate in their child's education that they can show any form of identification and it can be manually entered into the system in conclusion I really appreciate everybody who came tonight we didn't call you out by name but we appreciate having you here and I appreciate all the hours that you're spending on this most

worthy project for our community so thank you very much and even though school just started a few days ago I know you're sorry to be leaving mr. Joseph so sorry school started just a few days ago joining us for the first time tonight is student representative Alexei Magee on us from China High School Alexei welcome to the school board we hope you find

dr. infield and cabinet and the board we got four brand-new custodians at the high schools we heard the students the cleanliness and needing them well stocked was well heard and it's very much appreciated we know there's questions more questions that aren't that we have answers for but we very much appreciate the new staff members there it was mentioned earlier

too about the Raptor system our ultimate goal is the safety of the students staff members and community the rollout seemed to go with a little bit of hiccups but would just like everything else and change it's a work in progress but the school sites especially the clerical staff really appreciated that it was in it was finally time and they

really liked it dr. Enfield your video was very much well received by all classified staff certificated staff administration and students it was nice I got a lot of the comments very positive comments about it was nice to be included because sometimes others might feel that we're not but it was welcoming new students to the district of all ages that everybody

had a hand everybody had a hand in bringing this school year together so it was very much appreciated one thing they wanted to make sure is they're looking forward to the next installments of the video part of what's in the agenda also tonight is the instructional material that needs to reach our students I just want to make the board and cabinet aware

that we have women and men throughout the district that put those things together that either print it package it or deliver it at all of our school sites so that when the kids come to school that they're there within a relatively close period of time I thought this had changed over time but obviously I was incorrect we have one individual at the

PDC which brings in our books skansen gets them ready to be delivered that's continually been at 11 months it's time for that to change same thing with the warehouse the men there package it get it ready to go and deliver it to the school sites but we have two of those also that are 11 months it's again time to bring them to

the full 12 months also I wanted to congratulate mr. Rideout for being named the assistant superintendent of Human Resources and like his comments in his acceptance comments is a lot of times we don't we think that we need to have a combative relationship with the district with HR but it's not it is truly building bridges so that we can have a

collaborative relationship and it's so nice because I'm all for advocating for promoting from within I think he has very good role models and dr. infield dr. Park and Leia fellows has three previous human resources and superintendents of Human Resources so it was a very good decision I applaud you in that and we look forward to helping build those bridges thank you thank you

just wanted to comment that having Alma combs here was fantastic the gentleman is now it was it 94 96 something like that but you talk about someone who is a fixture in this in this community the fact that he gave that donation to hope and as for those of you who don't understand hope is helping our people every day

well think about this getting a $10,000 donation is gonna be helping them every day into the future for quite some time so kudos and sincere thanks to Al McComb for doing that and to wane Joseph who is the founder of that group I'm very proud to say I've been involved with it since its inception and we can't say enough about

it it's hard to believe that in these days and times that we have kids in our district that are homeless that don't have clothes the to to go to school with go to bed hungry at night when it gets to be rainy weather which we all say yeah it's great we love to have rain in our area but when they go home wet from

getting to school because they're walking they have no way to dry off and as Liz was saying we've already already reached out to 600 kids it's amazing both the city and Tino hills and the city of Tino supports us financially and we hope that anybody that's listening to this with likewise if you have donations of things we have Resource Center's at

different locations and Chino Hills that happens to be the old lo Serrano elementary school on pipeline you can take things there and contribute food items and clothing items bedding these are all great things we're all in this for the same thing this school district whether you agree with everything that goes on or not is all about the kids and

this board the staff the teachers they love your kids they do everything they can to make sure that they are safe each day that's what measure G is one of the primary objectives is 55 million dollars of being invested in security now a lot of this will take a little bit of time because as they were saying if you're

gonna have single point of entry not all schools right now if you've been to a lot of the campuses on in the school district you'd have to kind of move around to get to the office to be checked in well during modernization and that they're going to be read you know reconfiguring things they'll be securing the perimeter of the schools and you'll

have easy quick access to the or to the office so it'll take a little bit of time but there's clearly a commitment by this board to make your kids experience it at school safe and in the teachers and then they want to make it fun and they want educational and they want to send as many as your kids as possible on

to college or to a successful career as an adult so kudos to the to the board to the school district I am absolutely thrilled I've got to my grandsons or graduates of Aiello high school and I will put this school districts education up against any private school around you guys do a great job so that's what I

experience with husband to Aimee Campbell coach berry OPSEC you heard about the multiple times he walked in to the girls changing room and you listen as I told you how Barry groped my body and how he moved his hands around my thighs while pressing his head close to mine I have had time to talk to my parents and I have to come forward

publicly in hopes that more girls come forward coach Barry OPSEC will not stop he was premeditated in his actions and was very methodical in his execution in one instance coach Barry I've said knocked on the door while the changing sign was up one of my teammates had told coach AB said that the team was changing then proceeded to close the door coach

Barry OPSEC then moved to get his keys from where he had left them walked back to the room in which the team was changing opened the door with his keys and walked in coach Barry op6 waited until I was on break for my shift during the best of the West Tournament waited for me to be separated from my

friends what I want you to realize this is a direct resolve the culture coach Jamie Campbell created he was bold enough to touch me in public coach Barry OPSEC knew he was untouchable so he touched me however he wanted ami Campbell had been not to say that she cannot be fired that she is untouchable her husband resonates

throughout the program which also includes her coaching staff in April of this year coach amy campbell and athletic director Warren weed were made aware of the inappropriate actions of coach Barry OPSEC as he was accused of such misconduct in a private meeting he continued to be around girls and remained on staff with no investigation and or repercussions no

leave no suspension it was then clear to me what our worth was to this program what I am about to ask you at 14 years old I shouldn't have to ask you may be free from an environment of sexual misconduct may I be free from a system that turns a blind eye to sexual misconduct may I have

someone properly investigate these allegations against these coaches I did not choose to feel this way I did not choose to cry myself to sleep I'm speaking out now I'm crying for help so that may so that I may one day be free from the pain and the guilt I feel you have a voice speak up now thank you

she died Nastasia called by ELISA Hames baud by John Pappas good evening members of the board my name is Jada Stassi and as my pleasure to be here before you once more I come before you because I wish to show you how all these things have affected me you say that you place your students first well I'm a student

and I don't I don't feel like I don't feel like I mean safe right now like my mom prays for me every night because she sees me cry this is because of the Iowa girls basketball program and the coach and their coaches amy campbell and barry app sacks please think about us your your daughters in the decision of whether to

remove these coaches amy campbell was aware in April of her husband's sexual misconduct and he remained on her staff that should be a clear sign of the misconduct that is happening behind closed doors we are one program we are one team we are Bulldogs most importantly we are women we should not be treated as stray dogs to be beaten

and caged beaten by the harmful words of Amy Campbell and her husband Cates from the feelings of helplessness as she always always tells us we can't do anything about it is she right can she continue this way and nothing be done coach Amy Campbell constantly built rates and belittles her players especially the ones who are not as town

Ted coach berry app sack but Jax's anger now on us when he is dealing with his marital strife we were blamed by coach amy campbell for his failing to teach then get yelled at by her husband coach berry AB sack when she is done yelling at him we cannot grow in this hostile environment coach Summitt is a decorated

college coach also miss Campbell's Idol but she built a reputation for being on tough on her woman as it is to build on them into them of the women of character she encouraged the players and created an atmosphere that made the visuals want to learn more when these women displayed shortcomings coach Summitt showed them how to improve coach amy campbell falls

short and many of her idols teachings for her to say otherwise is auto trustee there is little to no avenue of trust she used what her players say in confidence to further hurt them she is racist she body shames and immortal Damona demoralizes the girls to the point of hopelessness I have seen coach Jamie Campbell bullying me and my

friends and tear the team apart she is using her position as he coached to to hurt vulnerable young woman and build herself up these are the things she has told us you're weak you're useless when we get hurt she tells us to stop being a when we make a mistake she calls us when we decide to have fun she tells us to

stop around when she gets angry she uses the word while yelling our faces we deserve better we deserve to be free from bullying be free from her be free from fear we deserve to be free thank you Alissa Haines followed by John Pappas followed by Nathaniel Rainey and before I went to yahwah I had major social anxiety and like I would probably be

crying throwing up in a corner or just being in front of you people and coach helped me get through that I was bullied a lot because of my like voice problem I was bullied because of the way I looked I was bullied because how I acted and like I had a lot of my friends moved away so I was bullied because of that

people that try to be my friends were bullied and I was constantly told to either kill myself leave this school because I'm not the kind of person that should be the coach has helped me improve my self-image about myself she is I know that she's helped many others before me I had a lot of problems and she told me like I did not believe in

any teacher they just watched as this happened I didn't believe got any parent any guardian I didn't believe that any actual adult would help me besides my parents but coach showed me but there's people like that that can help me she showed me that I'm not stuck in this image of having my speech impediment I'm not stuck with being an email that

speaks too loud sometimes that I could actually be who I am she has taught me so much in the short amount of time that I've had her and I even but I've had like breakdowns in front of her before and she never told me anything she ever told me to get over it she's talked to me if she counseled me down but I've

cried a lot in my time and she's helped me know that that's not the way to solve it the way it's just all things to just speak your mind to beat your own person not to follow the way others day she has been a great important part of my life and she has showed me what it really

means to be a woman and what it really means to be successful in life thank you for listening John Pappas followed by Nathaniel Rainey followed by Seth Jordan I'm being lazy gentlemen of the board my name is John Pappas I am a senior in high school I am a four year ofcourse you started on the baseball team and I'm

also our head of athletics for USB or United student body and so with that title I do work with lot of coaches I the coaching staff and including Miss Campbell and I can honestly stand before you guys today and say that I will not be half the man I am today without help from Miss Campbell from the very first

day that I met Miss Campbell walking into a role tear you crossed my freshman year she has pushed me to be the best that I can be she has gotten me through the ups and downs of high school as well as life and she show me what reliable and compassion an adult truly looks like when I was first

in her class I've always looked forward to the smiles that she would bring me as well to other students around me and outside of a class I've always had a smile brought to my face just by hearing her talk with Coach am Alexan and even now four years later I still look to my next meeting with Coach Campbell outside

of myself I believe that Miss Campbell embodies a lot of traits that I find me very valuable in life as well as in coaching as well as it's life in general Denzel Washington during a college graduation speech once said that ease is a greater threats of progress and hardship is and actually believe that Miss Campbell has taught this to

students as well as their athletes she has never allowed me allowed me to become complacent or lazy anything that I found to be personally intriguing or that I want to work hard in even if that being said I still look to her for guidance and anything on my for that Ivy sports family help hi Plesac psychedelics anything I've always looked

heard ever once have ever been denied help miss camelus dedication to her students can only be matched by her dedication and compassion for athletes through all of her opportunities that she has come across never once has her compassion or her dedication wavered she has always been looking forward to teaching looking forward to coaching she's always had a great attitude with

just me any student around her as well any athlete and I know that we as a high school being Grubin Acela high school are actually lucky to have her and if she was half of a coach that she's a teacher I know that we'd all be very lucky to have her thank you thank you Nathaniel Rainey followed by scepter

Dean followed by Cape Cod toshiro so my name is Nathaniel Rainey I'm a student athlete trainer are they all high school I think coach Campbell's athletic trainer for three years I personally have never seen any of the allegations that are being claimed against her I am in the I need to walk throw at them as long as I'm not changing I'm to provide

water may help take this I make sure they're okay I met all the practices about all the games I've never seen any of these allegations if I didn't have a chance to be another chamber coach and I don't even know if I'd want to pursue this field I want to pursue now so a coach Campbell I've actually

pursued this field I want to go in and next you're gonna be going to not have to get a degree in athletic training because I can be a certified athletic trainer or a certified athletic trainer is not able to come tonight but she asked me to say a couple words on her behalf she said coach camel has

been nothing but welcoming this is my first official year as a certified athletic trainer for Ruben Sol high school you've been during my time as I said that I all is she has been nothing but accepting of me and welcomed me with open arms she's the first coach that ever helped me out on a all high school

and make sure I always have what I needed so I personally do not think that coach Campbell should not be gone because visit she is strict but she's fair I that is what our coaches me at this point I've never seen her seemed to go farther without coach Hamill thank you Thank You Seth your Dean followed by

Kate cut Shira followed by Daniel Munoz I'm happy to be with here be here with you tonight and what went down will he be one of the most difficult decisions this school board that's currently constructed will have to make you're about to hear several men and women make their case for and against coach amy campbell and coach very upset the

decision you make today and the consequences thereafter would undoubtedly echo in the coming decades make no mistake the judgment you pass will affect the lives of every facet of population this school board is responsible for men women mothers fathers and most importantly our sons and daughters the stand you take will be the president used for years to come

prejudice the abuse of power bullying harsh punishment the prohibition of freedom to assemble having a secret police are the tools used to create the institution of oppression that has been a decade-long staple of the girls i all a basketball program there are women here who have come to the defense of Amy Campbell and I want you to know that what these women

are about to state our large part the truth yes coach Amy Campbell cares yes coach Amy Campbell had the program had taken the program on extravagant trips yes coach Amy Campbell exposed them to competition through tournaments that is all true it does not negate the fact that these other young women are speaking the truth it's all truth

coach Amy camel has shown her prejudiced through a variety of methods but enlarged focus was on the daughters intro little little promise in high school the reality is the majority of your population will not be a college athlete or even have the skill sets to attain their goals Jazmin Isha Naya Johnson Sam Mirage Zen dong Janissa Wang and Jackie Ricketts in

your daughters have names they have dreams and aspirations athletics is a learning experience unlike anywhere else on campus you can literally fail at something and it not be held against you you can learn how to adapt and most importantly learn how to get up after you fall I have seen coach Amy Campbell use tactics and force our daughters into

quitting I had a player whose father was on his deathbed her play and her attitude suffered suffered understandably I encouraged her to stay with the team and her friends who loved her as she goes through this difficult time in her life coach Jamie Campbell expressed to me this player was not what the program needs the program not what

she needed she constantly placed the needs of the program over the needs of our daughters here tonight we honor our ancestry we will not be silenced we will speak in one voice to be free from tyrannical rule to be free from oppression to be free from that which exacerbates our fears tonight we find the strength in one another as we use

that strength as a catalyst for Pella sport on to greatness in one voice we will be free Thank You Kate kashiro fought by Daniel Munoz followed by the Wiis rah rah we good evening my name is Kate Katsuhiro Ayala class of 2015 JV and varsity basketball player under coach Amy Campbell I'm a witness to when amy Campbell went as far as to use violence

as an expression of anger and intimidation as a 14 year old I was grabbed by the neck of my Jersey and thrown with excessive force to the sideline during practice over a minor mistake my body froze as I was engulfed and embarrassment and shame my mother soon after had a personal meeting with coach Amy Campbell and discuss her disapproval of how I was

treated and expressed how she prayed for me as I experienced a tremendous amount of anxiety before practice and games then during the later date for a general meeting with other parents amy campbell mockingly and inappropriately asked my mother if she wanted to start the meeting with a prayer in front of everyone this was not a joke this is

another method of bullying that amy campbell had used to regulate her congregation i'm a witness to coach amy Campbell making homophone homophobic remarks claiming that the actions of a teammate of mine who had identified as lesbian were the reasons as to why no one joined or supported the team program I'm a witness to an incident in which

Amy Campbell publicly embarrassed and humiliated one of my teammates by calling her a in front of both teams I'm a witness to a multitude of things in which Amy Campbell used demeaning and belittling language that is unfit for a coach Amy Campbell went as far as to publicly embarrass me by calling a meeting with everyone to make both teams believe that

I was somehow the reason they had lost an entire game at a home tournament even though I had only made a negligible mistake as a scorekeeper this could have been avoided if she would only come to speak with me personally to try to understand what had happened instead of being mmediately choosing to publicly single me out and place the

blame on me I eventually quit the team in doing so amy campbell further alienated me from one of my friends that remained on the team by pulling her sides to seriously tell her that I was a bad influence and that she should no longer hang around me this was a culture in 2011 an environment based in fear

hearing these young women today is a testament that this culture has not changed in closing I repeat these words six years later so that they may continue to echo in her conscious for decades to come your job as a citizen and as a decent human being is to constantly affirm and lift up and fight for treating people with kindness

respect and understanding I'm doing that today at 15 I was scared humiliated and bullied into quitting a sport that I loved today I stand in solidarity with my sisters who have been victims a tyrannical rule which is Amy Campbell victims of an institution who would rather silence their voices and cover their faces tonight you can dry their

tears and give them voice they deserve to be free thank you thank you Daniel munos followed by Louise Raleigh followed by Veronica Munoz okay I had a speech okay uh I'm I'm here on behalf of my daughter and you hear all these stories in I mean I'm angry inside that that we as parents have to be here again

quit two years later she could no longer handle the abuse and the toxic environment amy campbell single-handedly created there's not enough time to tell you everything so I've settled show just a few examples it's important for you to know that none of these examples that I'm about to tell you have anything to do with basketball how much time how

much play time my daughter got or how many how many 17 she had to run or even personality differences it all has to do with Campbell's abusive personality and her creating a culture of bullying hostility and diss respect she's a bully and she groomed the players to bully their teammates manipulated situations by bullying players especially those of color or

once she did not care for she called the girls names and I need you to brace yourself for some of the things that came out of her mouth while she was yelling so it's not language that I usually use but I really want you to get the effect of what what she's said to the girls AB or with tits except you

don't have any tits dumb a waste of a player but she saved the best for my daughter and called her a cancer she also created a culture of disrespect and hostility one of the players was running a little late and she knocked on the door and the players opened the door for her when she saw her face when Campbell saw her she told them

to shut the door in her face and she offered threw tantrums and sometimes got so hostile that she threw objects at the kids whatever she can grab and she was often inappropriate by talking about virginity and sexual preference my daughter was present during the 2015 investigation when the entire JV team was called out of class one by one to be

interviewed by HR the HR person at that time told my daughter I'm so sorry honey that you have to go through all this believe me when I tell you that we're going to make things right and my daughter came happy and she said you know Mom I don't have to quit basketball after all this is the game that I love

and I really want to stay and if coach Campbell doesn't stay then stays then I'll go it has it has been two years since then and I think it's safe to say that things are not better this has gone on too long and it's long overdue amy campbell is going to continue with business as usual because people in

charge like HR like her boss like the principal are allowing it to do so you can't let her get away with this any longer our kids come first they deserve a chance to be athletes and pursue what they love without having anxiety attacks and depression Thank You Veronica Munoz Adrian Gonzalez all by Sheree methought hello good evening members of the board

I would like to convey how amy campbell has continued to corrupt a yella athletics not only on the field of play but beyond the basketball court more specifically the corruption within the booster board booster funds since August of 2014 the Booster Club has failed to file their taxes and has since been in operation illegally because of this

willful act of multiple violations as of January 15th of this year the federal government has revoked any and all privileges as well as any and all legal standing of the Boosters for their yellow girls basketball program the hope the booster identification number for 2-1 5503 to four was posted on a auto revocation list on April 9th of this

year during the youth summer camps merchandise was so to those in attendance without a seller's permit which is also in violation of district policy amy campbell has used booster funds for personal gain which is a violation of district's policy and state law as the Boosters is California tax-exempt under code 501c3 there has been no audit committee which

is in direct violation of district policy financial records are not provided to board officials upon request a scholarship was granted to provide proper assistance to a player or players that may may travel that needed whatever so needed to travel with the team this would be legal except according to district policy the booster board needs to provide documentation in which the

funds came from booster board member approval the method and criteria in which the recipient was selected none of which were provided as a selection was based solely on the prejudice of head coach Amy Campbell all of your policies are available on your district website and easily accessible and there is no excuse for ignorance because of Amy Campbell's direct influence and control

over the booster board I have to believe that she willfully ignored rules regulations policies and laws in order to maintain her rule over the program she has brought shame to a yellow high school to the district and most importantly has shown to be a bad example for our daughters our daughters deserve to be free from corruption I also wanted to say that

over the past month I've been hearing and reading stuff that people have been sitting out there saying that our daughters have only been in the program for a short period they hid that they have not yet to fully experience the full weight of Amy Campbell's abuse the notion is ridiculous to state that they barely were on the varsity team or

barely had any interaction with Amy Campbell does not exempt them from being a victim of abuse how many times does somebody experience abuse before they're considered a victim the answer should be one time is too many thank you for your time thank you Adrian Gonzalez followed by sherry method felled by karamja thought my daughter played varsity all last year

she played almost every game and she chose this year not to play because of the coach in Campbell and I was looking through an article and I want to read this to you it says you are not a good coach when you that's what it style of them says there are a lot of coaches out there who don't have a clue one about

how to really coach these individuals consistently do far more damage to young people than they coach these individuals consistently when they tear down self-esteem rather than building it up they create an extremely unsafe learning environment for their athletes they use fear humiliation and deeming disrespectful behaviors as teaching tools they are emotionally and sometimes physically abusive they regularly kill

the fun and that's what gets me the most how they killed the fun of the the girls is a desire to play and the passion that their athletes once has for the sport these coaches have lost their way and stray terribly far from the true mission of coaching and then let me continue on it says you're not a good coach when you

tell your athletes that under no circumstance are they ever to tell their parents what really goes on in practice and if they do they are being disloyal and disrespectful to their teammates coach and the program coaches who tell their athletes these kinds of things are terribly misguided and are trying to hide some what they're trying to hide is their

abusive behaviors telling kids not to ever tell their parents is what child abusers tell their victims now one time my daughter who needs on the handler sometimes she told the coach at practice that she did not have her inhaler and let me write let me read you what the coat what Campbell told her she called her stupid and dumb for that to see she

became coach Campbell became irate and screamed at my daughter insults which included calling her dumb coach any Campbell was not done humiliating my daughter as she made my daughter run for the incident my daughter was not asked if she was ready to resume practice and Amie Campbell forced my daughter to run directly after taking her medication asthma doesn't alleviate right away

after taking the medication takes time for the medication to work in my daughter was given no time for that to happen okay we sum it up we filed a complaint against her with well we filed a complaint that's under review and that they're calling me right well the civil rights because we feel like her rights have been violated anyways the coach

like I said last time I was here she's not a good coach she she picks and chooses who she likes and for every one girl that likes her there's many go thank you Cheri method followed by caramel fought odd by John Lugo good evening my name is Shari method and I have a new technique position of coming back from 2013 some

of you I've spoken with I also was a part of the booster board I was supposed to board secretary so I'm coming from a position a little different I have witnessed many instances of alleged corruption including the improper influence of board elections and telling parents whom to vote for and what positions the bylaws dictate that the nominations must come from the parents

or members of the booster CIF rules are explicitly clear that the coach should have no undue influence over the both abort that didn't happen further eyewitness Amy camel holding private meetings away from other board members so that she could allege it allegedly script how the next board meeting was to go including nominating chosen members into key positions so that she may

continue to use the booster for her personal gain if anyone was daring enough to expose suppose her campbell would threaten the board and tell them i can have you all replaced that is what she does threaten and bully until she gets her way Amy Campbell told students and parents that not only was fundraising mandatory but that there was

a mandatory of amount of money that each individual had to sell it is a direct violation of rules to demand students to fundraise the C V USD parent organizations of booster clubs operating manual states students participating in parent organization booster fundraising activities cannot be required to volunteer further if students and her parents did not meet the required

monetary amount the parents were then demanded to come out of pocket for the remainder of the sum if the parents refused or could not pay their children suffered by a decrease in playing time and they were humiliated in front of their peers during the trip to another state booster money was used to pay the way for the coaches to travel with the

team a vote was taken without a quorum present additionally booster money was used for at least one student handpicked by Amy Camel to travel for free again without a quorum present when documentation was requested to show where the funds were coming from it was not provided as should be in accordance to district policy page 48 in addition to the

personal spending into my knowledge as secretary at that time there was never an audit committee created for the oversight that is required by CIF there are multiple instances in which money fundraise never made it to the booster account but instead went directly into Amy Campbell's account this was discussed out loud proof can be from her provided that some monies were spent for

Campbell's personal gains after he left after I left sorry spending hard-earned boosting monies in Tesla for the basketball program for her personal indulgences such as treating herself to getting nails done or buying food for herself and companions finally the incident that that upset me the most was I a secretary she removed words from my meeting minute she learned it through and put our

parents in the booster saw it words were removed everything was changed this isn't about what happened on the port there's about it happened with that me Kabul behind closed doors so all of this is bullying tactics the unsuspecting parents don't know thank you paramedic Don jugo pod by Betty Uribe hi my name is Karen methane from the class of 2014

I first wish to reiterate how brave these women are today as a member of this community I've gotten to know many of them I have played basketball with some of the women who are speaking today and I'd like to still consider them my friends my friends who've come to the defense of Amy Campbell you're right she has some good qualities it is easier to

only want to remember the good times and there were some good times but it is utterly disingenuous to completely disregard we were all witnesses to to completely disregard the abuse that we are exposed to by Amy Campbell is an injustice to those who still for the ramifications today and it is graced to our heritage as women as we enable

future generations of women to experience as maltreatment themselves this is what we know a victim of abuse is three percent more likely to abuse children themselves 80 percent are more likely to have psychological disorders in their early 20s nine times or more many times of them were more likely to participate in komen behavior and they're two times more

likely to end up in prison abuse can also cause long-lasting physical and mental trauma to the abused today i have permanent damage to my jaw because i used to tighten my jaw and clenched my teeth as a reaction to anxiety that I felt whenever I was around amy campbell so much so that my jaw would lock it

caused me tremendous pain in addition to that i know that some of the girls currently have had their hair fall out and they've expressed that they've thrown up because of the anxiety that they feel this is 14 15 16 year old girls have their hair falling out and it's in to that many of them have expressed the depression that they felt

during this program these are just some other ramifications that we have to think about as we expose these young women to the abusive culture of this program now Amy Campbell is fully responsible for her actions however institutionalized bullying can only exist when we allow it to there are those who are fully aware of Amy Campbell's inappropriate coaching

tactics if they choose to ignore it they choose to look the other way I believe that doing nothing is the equivalent of condoning her abusive behavior and by condoning this behavior we are teaching every young woman who has ever been and who ever will be in this program that when they are abused they see to suck it up and deal

with it we are teaching them that they don't deserve to be treated any better and we are teaching them that when they do try to stand up and defend themselves they will fail because nobody will protect them I think we can all agree that this is not the message that we want to send to our young daughters now

everyone here wearing purple has been affected by Amy Campbell's abuse in one way or another I want you to know that you are not alone you have a voice we are here with you and together we can make a difference Amy Campbell had ten years to form a coalition we had one month and we have 50-plus people here to support this

cause imagine what we can do if we have 12 months you can call email direct message any of us and we will help you or use the hashtag be free and we will find doing a reach out to you it's time to be free of this burden be free from institutionalized bullying be free from abuse just be free thank you thank you

jugo followed by Teddy Uribe followed by Rachel Essie mm so good evening everyone my name is John who go and I was one of the JV coaches as well as varsity assistance from 2012 to 2015 in the Ala program during my time with a coach Campbell and all of the players on a daily basis she kept all of us to a high

standard from the players to the coaches to everyone affiliated because that high standard was important to her to make sure that everybody was pushing himself to be the greatest it can be to not fall in love with good on the way to great on a weekly basis she would actually fight for the girls rights for court time

alongside the boys team because that was always a difficult time as far as scheduling appropriate times either before school or after school and she constantly made it in the strong effort to make sure that her girls were a lot of the same amount of time the same main court and all of the facilities that the men's teams were allowed during that

time and I felt that that was such an impactful message to me because as a man that would always you know of course be in men's sports I never thought about the other side of it and so finally working with a girls team to see the difficulties that can happen with the gender differences and what's you know who has priority over court

timing she would constantly fight for it and that really made me admire her for that and honestly her holding everyone to that standard to show our young women our young men everybody in her classes that to have a high center is important to push yourself to dedicate yourself to something to day in and day out don't accept being late I was always taught

and she helped reinforce it in me that early is on time on time is late and late is unacceptable so even as an assistant coach she would ask hey what happened why are you late like I need you here for practice and I said I'm sorry coach you're right I will be here next time on time for practice because I

know that she wanted was best out of me she always wanted what was best for the girls and I couldn't be more thankful for her and the influence she had on me to help show me how you can keep players really working hard but at the same time enjoying themselves because all of the girls that pushed himself during

practice we worked hard we we fought it out together and we were successful during games and I couldn't be more thankful for my time that I spent with her in the program and I I don't I don't know what else to say but I really really truly appreciate it for for what she's done for me so thank you

Thank You Betty Uribe followed by Rachel LC followed by Tim Rodgers good evening members of the board my name is dr. Betty Uribe I'm an executive vice president in a financial services institution I run a six billion dollar business here in Southern California I'm the mother of Sandra Tucker who was also in in the program I'm also the author of

hash tag values an international bestseller that was endorsed by the Vatican as a book that should be read and the only reason I bring this is because I want to talk to you about my personal experience with coach Amy and her value system which is my area of expertise I've known ami Campbell since 27 that since 2010 when

my daughter started at a yalla I was also on the booster board and as a banking executive who he had to make sure that the money was handled in double custody just like we have to handle it at the bank the decisions were made by the booster members and I thought that it would be important for me to give you this information based on

some of some of the comments the previous comments on arrival of a yada-yada my daughter Sandra was swamped by everybody especially by coach Campbell who welcomed her in on the team I saw Santa worked harder than probably ever I made I immediately made sure that I made contact with ami Campbell to make sure that we formed a partnership as to

parent and a coach so that she could support me on the court with my daughter and then I could support my daughter with her studies I saw that Emmy was concerned about not just the players but also their well-being and their grades she made sure that their grades were high so that they could play when we had

issues at home I felt comfortable enough to go and talk to ami about the issues that we had at home and we had a really good partnership between coach and parent amy was a true partner to me it's my belief that children's education outside of the school is the responsibility of the parents I also believe that parents should take an

active role in come in communicating with the teachers to make sure there is a true partnership that's working for the good of the child with Sammy a tough coach yes she was she was very tough and I was grateful for Amy as she prepared my daughter for how tough college would be following high school and most importantly I felt she was well prepared

in for real life well amy was consistently tough coach I have direct knowledge of her dedication to her students in her ex vacation of excellence I've been a be Campbell turn teams around into Champions I'd like to read to you a letter that my daughter wrote she's in Washington DC but she wanted you to hear from her as well I'm not going to read

the whole letter I'll just give you the highlights although we may not have been the greatest high school basketball team a Diyala those years I have spent wearing the yellow jersey and all of the memories blood sweat and tears that came up in the territory yeah the best I'm so sorry Thank You Rachel SC followed by Tim Rogers followed by

gabriella kid RT hi my name is Rachel SC and I attended highs I oughta - 2010 to 2014 I was on the basketball team under coach Amy Campbell from the summer before my freshman year until I graduated in my senior year I also was on the softball team at ayala during those years where coach Campbell was an assistant coach I want to speak

today on her behalf to bring some positive words about her during my time on the basketball team on ayala we had for our date of practice during the summer practices every day after school and shootarounds before every game being on the basketball team was a commitment and I would not take that back for anything coach Campbell was there for me

whenever I needed her whether it was basketball related or not I could count on her for anything she was hard on us don't get me wrong but that is how a coach should be I never felt she had crossed any lines she pushed us because she believed in us and because she knew we would be successful and we were coach

Campbell taught me many things throughout the four years I played for her she shaped me into the athlete and person I am today she taught me commitment and hard work through the expectations she had for our team I would not be the same person I am today without her because she is one of the reasons I was able to be successful in

college I recently graduated from Simpson University a private Christian College while I was on the softball team graduating with honors and becoming scholar athlete of the year I learned amazing my management skills from being on the basketball team coach Campbell made sure we knew that school came first and taught us that we can juggle school and practice two sets

successfully without falling behind the bit the biggest thing coach Campbell taught me it was that hard work always pays off I can only say positive things about coach Campbell and I wish the truth of who she is as a coaches Express she's a good coach cares about her athletes and only wants the best for them thank you

thank you Tim Rodgers followed by Gabriela Qatar tip followed by Jessica cantata Gabriella K dart a good opinion ladies and gentlemen of the board my name is Gabriella Qadhafi and I'm here today to speak to you about my experience as a parent in the ayala girls basketball program headed by Amy Campbell as a parent I don't have enough

words to thank miss Campbell for the great opportunities she provided for my daughter Jessica get out there the four years she was in the program three of them were in varsity she had the opportunity to travel outside of California to experience computer competitive basketball and has well as college visits this experience is provided camaraderie and a strong bonds

among all the players and the coaching staff coach Campbell is a coach who is dedicated young hours of duty she cared for her players far more than just basketball program during this four years I always felt confident that coach Campbell care for my daughter as a player as well as the person I'd confident I can't confidently say that

coach Campbell has always had the players that's interest in mine thank you very much thank you can we take a moment Donny can you go into the superintendent's office please oh okay thank you sorry about that all right good evening guys good evening members of the board audience my name is Jessica connected and I graduated from Ayala in 2017 and I

was in the basketball program for four years I have a lot of prepared but I don't really think it's gonna do justice so I'm just gonna speak from the heart I was in a me camels program for four years and you can't tell me that I don't know because I was in it you can't tell me that that all these things these

girls aren't saying don't have some truth to it but how was I in the program for four years and never hear her once say a homophobic remark once say a racist remark or once or once do the things be violent with her players like come on guys like I was there you can't tell me that that it happened when I was

there coach amy campbell is a tough person to play for she is one of the hardest coaches I have ever had to play for but if you're playing for an easy coach then they're not pushing you to your limits they're not pushing you to get better I've had the privilege of being able to play basketball at the

collegiate level for two years now and I would not be able to make it through the rigorous emotional physical and mental toughness required to play at this level without coach Amy Campbell coach Campbell beyond basketball cares about her girls my grandmother died my senior year of high school right at the beginning when we're preparing for our season not only did coach Campbell sit

me down and ask me how I was doing but she had the booster members come together to send me meals to my family she sent flowers she tried to make it to the funeral but she it was the beginning of school she couldn't miss that day you can't tell me that a person who abuses people would do that I'm just here

because it honestly it feels like this has become more personal than trying to fix a program you can't tell me that putting an ad out in the paper to summon people to tell their stories is trying to better the program making shirts putting duct tape over your mouth this has become more than trying to empower women then

trying to do any of that it has just become trying to belittle a person now I don't understand how kids and especially their parents are okay with showing their daughters that when things get tough and when things don't go their way that you can just complain until someone hears you and I understand everyone is entitled to feel the way that they feel

but coming from a player who played for years it is not nowhere near as bad as she's getting her name drug through the mud now thank you Thank You Darren D kinkle followed by rich James followed by Tina Haines good evening my name is Darren Technica my daughter is Tara Dec knickers she just graduated and unfortunately I'm sad

to see that they would not want to listen to what I have to say since my daughter just finished the program this spring my daughter was a senior played all four years for Coach gamble one but daughter first came to Il and my daughter is a perfectionist and sometimes perfection being a perfectionist is very challenging for a

young lady especially when it comes to sports but more academics she was a four-point plus student and finished this year is an academic player scholar of the year for Ayala my daughter for years and was coach Campbell of a tough coach absolutely she's kind of the throwback style coach high expectations requires a lot out of her players also

my daughter is a mixed race my daughter did not experience any racial biases and the four years that she played there she can't be here tonight because she's working she's gotten the job and getting ready to go to college in the fall here so she was not able to make it but I wanted to come to be able to share that

with you she had times were you know being a a gifted student she would be really concerned about her grades she would talk to Campbell a lot more than accounts or even more than her academic advisor regarding her grades and how she was doing the balance between sports and her grades she had an injury with her knee and with her knee she had to rehab

back coach Campbell was very concerned coach Campbell would always be there would adjust her training accordingly and would also offer her opportunities to to rehab or to be in the gym to shoot so our experience with coach Campbell has been nothing more than a caring person a tough coach no doubt of my daughter learned a lot of lessons from

her learned how to overcome adversity and I think that means that story needs to be shared thank you as well by the orchestrated event that we're seeing today I really just wanted to be here to give my support to Amie Campbell in my mind she's done nothing but outstanding things for my daughter Alyssa who she talked about she has a speech impediment

and she's gone through a lot and really Amy Campbell's the only teacher that's ever stuck up for her and since she's been in school honestly which is just amazing she is a tough coach you know we're not the most talented team my daughter has been on the varsity team for three years we're not the most talented team but we

were were in shape we know how to run plays and were and we're a good basketball team three years ago when Alyssa started she graduated five seniors to went on to play college basketball last year and you've heard for some of them today last year they graduated three and two actually got scholarships to go on to play basketball so I know you're hearing

a lot of stuff I think there's probably 10,000 more that would come in front for a me support than we have today but I just wanted to take a couple minutes and tell you my point of view so thank you very much for listening Thank You Tina Haynes called by Carol elder followed by Sharon Lee hello I'm saddened that they turned their

backs to hear us but listening to them and I appreciate them talking and saying how they feel but they should really not turn their backs on us and be disrespectful but well my name is Tina Haynes my daughter has been playing on varsity is going to be her third year I was saddened to hear about the last board

meeting that had happened I just want to talk about our experience personally being on the program my daughter is this has finished two years of being on varsity they have gone on so many trips Arizona State Texas University Washington University San Diego State Cal Poly San Luis Obispo Oregon State they played at all these colleges and have toured the colleges

she has taken tons of team bonding trips Morro Bay San Diego Camp plan Grand Canyon Big Bear Disneyland I know for a fact that no schools and the tune of Chino unified district has done any of that with their program this is a girl's team and she's taken them to all these colleges so that they inspired to play

one day their coaches let all her players use her classroom during lunch time when she's in there during lunch time and I can tell you this all the players go in there not feeling threatened not feeling like abused they all go sit there and eat their lunch in the room with coach Campbell I also am a big part of the Boosters and every

Friday for 12 weeks we are together I am with all these girls myself some of the coaches they're in different areas but for 12 weeks on Friday I'm with these girls I love them I care so much about them I'm I'm saddened by all this but during that time these girls we talk about boys playing music homecoming

their dresses I listen to their music and and all that I believe I'm positive that they felt safe with me in a safe setting we goofed around and I know so much that's going on in their high school life because of the Friday's that I packed with them for two years in a row 12 weeks every Friday

and not once has they ever said that the cute the coach is abusive to me never I just have I just wanted to save my part in the sense of I am sad about this and I mean who couldn't be it's it's disturbing for both sides but at the end of day I just wanted you to know some of

the good things that she has done and since we are a third year returning player we've seen tons of things and again I just never have witnessed or heard any of that thank you thank you Carol elder followed by Sharon Lee followed by Serco Cisneros for attended school in Chino I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere

appreciation to the yella basketball program additionally I would like to mention that I was not asked to be here but took the initiative to express my truth I'm a gratitude and the love and the long lasting impression coach Campbell left in my family my daughter Alexa was part of the program for two years in the JV team under the coaching

of Stemler Dean mr. Jordan was an excellent coach with her Alexis so much about the game and motivated her to work hard we were excited to see him leave for her sophomore year in regards to coach Campbell we know I know she is a firm coach who will tell you your witnesses and improve them as well as

your strengths I have seen a Lexie mature and grow into a hard-working young woman during her time in the program she has learned to take constructive criticism and applied it to the apply it to enable her to continue growing the times I interacted with coach Campbell were very welcoming who thinks I have seen I know she cares

about her players one case recently been an inquiry I happened to see on Facebook I skin of a good restaurant to celebrate a player's birthday at the beginning of Alexis freshman year I was going to pull a Lexie out of basketball because I had lost my job at the time and could not afford the rest of a spared fact payment

coach Campbell took the initiative to talk to me about letting Alexi stay in the program she along with the Booster Club helped waive the rest of the feast out that action is forever engraved in my heart this is my daughter my daughter Alexis letter I would like I would like to take this opportunity to address my basketball experience at a yalla

I joined basketball by my freshman year and play for a total of two years my time in the program was very beneficial and overall a good overall a good experience this program taught me the work ethic on Drive that is needed to be successful in today's society additionally I have learned to work with others to reach a common goal it still

have the confidence to give my to get to voice my opinions during my freshman year I tried out and made a JV team coach coached by Seth Geordi coach G made a point to express that basketball was not about wins or losses and X for us instead it was about building a foundation based on hard work and

discipline values that I keep with me today over the course of two years I learned so much about the game and developed a love for it from time to time coach Campbell will invite me along with other girls to practice with varsity she wanted us to know our hard work was nothing not going unnoticed during the off-season she had JV and

varsity scrimmage to give us the opportunity to learn things that could only be learned by playing against more experienced players in summary I have learned in basketball that I have helped me to become the young woman I am today thank you for your time and attention Thank You Shannon we followed by SoCo Sisneros followed by Cyndi Dana all

right hi everyone my name is sharon lee i graduated i Yala back in 2011 and i graduated UC berkeley in 2014 I played varsity for four years I did three with coach mel simms and then i did my final year with coach amy campbell and that was her first year coaching so just to give you some background on coach

since coach Sion's was a very tough coach no-nonsense it was very serious he was very driven we ran a lot of drills we did a lot of running you know but you know when we run when we do these drills they're not for nothing they are to look for us to learn our fundamentals and that's essentially the baller that I am

today I played with a lot of d1 players you know some of them went to UCLA or again I was good but you know I wasn't a d1 player so I didn't need basketball to go to college but for some of these girls they didn't need basketball and you know that's you need you need a tough coach you need someone who's gonna

push you someone who's gonna push the players to be their best both on the court and off the court and I think that's what Coach Miller Simpson and I also see that within coach amy Campbell so with coach Mel Sims a little bit more context on other coaches I guess besides Amy Campbell I played three years varsity what every single practice went

to you know all the hours and let's all the games I probably get in maybe one minute if you know if that at the end of the game if we're up by 40 points otherwise sat on the bench no playing fine you know what I thought that was unfair there's a lot of yelling there's a lot of crying there's a lot of running

but for the love of basketball you know I stuck it out it might have been unfair but then I can't say that we always know what the coaches are thinking when they're making us you know do these drills or the way that they're coaching but I think you know from my experiences both with Coach Simmons both Amy

Campbell it's for us to develop as players and as people senior year I met coach Campbell I was the captain she was a new coach this is a new team not the d1 players that you know I wish we could have been but I would have spoken up with my teammates or you know treated unfairly or if anything that happened

that I saw that wasn't appropriate um I'd been following along for the situations and heard the testimonies and it's unfortunate what happened and these girls voices are valid and they should be heard and they need and they should speak upon it but I want to speak upon coach Campbell who can't be here you know I heard throughout this process

that she's a bad coach I don't think she's a bad coach at all I wouldn't say that in hindsight or I would have wouldn't have said it then but she's a tough coach and so as an educator and someone who teaches these students you know she's someone who's putting in the hours as much as we're putting in the

hours she's putting it in and then some more as well she got us plugged in with the community we visited the local fire stations behind wall but the businesses the fundraisers and things like that so she showed us you know it's a little bit more than just basketball I also tutored one of the players on her on the team per her suggestion because

again that was important she wears her heart on our sleeve I had a good relationship with her but we butt heads thank you Sokol Cisneros fought by Cindy Dana and followed by William Durbin hi my name is SoCo Cisneros I'm a former teacher in the Chino Valley Unified School District and I'm actually a product of your schools I graduated from

Donegal High School 1993 I love this district I loved our community and I love our teenagers and I'm here today because I'm very concerned with the direction we're headed as a society as a district at in general so what I grew up in is a family of educators both my parents were Chino Valley Unified School District teachers they poured their

hearts lives everything they've got into our kids they set that example for me and I did the same as a teacher you can interview any student I ever had and they will tell you that I hemorrhaged for them when I was teaching I did the same as a coach I first met Amy when she was one of my parents students and the

first thing they said to me is you've got to meet this girl she's amazing she's like no other student we've ever had I thought oh that's great fantastic she's dedicated she's committed a few years down the road I started teaching at Ayala when the board decided we no longer need a teacher librarians and I all of my eld students would say to me

mrs. C miss Campbell is the best teacher ever she's so patient with us and she takes the time to understand us and other teachers don't do that and that universally was the claim for my first year eld students which i thought was wonderful as a teacher um then my sons who both are students of a ela high

school now started playing at the neighborhood activity center they started playing basketball there in their coach who I think is gonna speak to a little later Andre or Juarez said to me oh you know coach Campbell she's amazing she's the reason I became a basketball coach she is the big part of the reason I am Who I am today and

I'm like oh that's great I work out at Orangetheory fitness in our community several of the young women there who just recently graduated from this program when they find out that I used to be a teacher Oh - you know coach Campbell and they unilaterally tell me she changed my life I find it very very very sad disheartening tough to believe

that unless she got beat over the head by a hammer at some point between when all these people experienced her and when these people are experienced during her that she could be so duplicitous I also find it awfully disheartening that a group that wants to stop coach bullying is posting on public forums like Facebook and things like that

advocating for people to say negative things about someone who's not on the site to defend themselves someone who's not there to be able to say hey wait that's not right I want to speak very briefly to the race comments made about her I'm a mother of two black children from Ethiopia so I'm not just a white lady defending some another white lady

up here um one of the comments was about jungle ball google it urban dictionary I'll tell ya it's not a racist term it's an organized basketball with my two black children when I when we're taking a picture and there's a dark wall friends I move them to the front because you can't see them and I want to see

their beautiful little faces in my photos so that's all I want to say tonight I hope you guys make the right decision I trust all of you you're wonderful have a wonderful rest of your nights Thank You Cindy Damon followed by William Durban followed by Vicki pearl hi my name is Jude from my Yala last year and

I played under coach Campbell for two years I'm here today to share my experience of the ayala girls basketball program personally I've never portrayed coach Campbell's coaching styles bullying I've been playing basketball for most of my life and have been coached by so many different types of coaches from my experience there are way worse things a coach can do travel ball

coaches and college coaches are a complete different story I think coach Campbell is a great coach who only wants it's best for your players she's done many things to bring together a group of girls and gives them a chance to bond holla I've made some great friends that I would never have talked to if it weren't for this program we've got to

travel to places and go out on trips like Morro Bay Big Bear Texas in Arizona and I don't think most high school coaches would go through all the organizing and planning of all these trips unless they really loved their team before I came to a yalla I was in the Diamond Bar High School girls basketball program there I wasn't coached at all so

I never got to learn and gain more experience instead I was pushed to the side and ignored because the coach cared more about winning every game coach Campbell was able to see my potential and did what she needed so I can grow as a player from her program in coaching style I've gained the confidence that I needed to play college basketball I have

increased my skill set and I've learned the importance of perseverance thank you thank you William Durban followed by Vicki pearl followed by Jorge wadis a distinguished board good evening members of the audience I want to read you a quote from Teddy Roosevelt it's not the critic who counts not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where

the doer of Deeds could have done them better the credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood who strives valiantly who airs who comes short again and again because there is no effort without error and shortcomings but who does actually who does actually strive to do the deeds who knows great

enthusiasms the great devotions who spends himself in so oh I'm sorry who spends himself in a worthy cause who had best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at worst if he fails at least fails while doing greatly so that his place shall never be with those who could who have cold and timid

souls who neither know victory or defeat it's much more comfortable outside the arena it's safer where there's no sacrifice but those on the inside well on the outside will never fully experience victory or defeat where am i coming from I'm coming from over 35 years in the classroom almost all of those coaching here in this district I've coached with

my son of my daughter in this district they have both taught in this district I first knew Amy when she was an eighth grader and she was probably one of the top two kids that I've had over thousands of kids that I would consider just outstanding in every sense of the word over the years we have become

colleagues she graduated from college came back and invested her life back into this community back into the children of this community I've seen her character qualities those that I admire most loyalty to a fault integrity work ethic she goes the extra mile not just with students but with everybody and I've got to say I'm proud to not only know her but actually have

an opportunity to speak for her I'll leave you with this last bit and that is an ancient writing deffend f and life are in the power of the tongue thank you thank you Vicki pearl followed by Horton wadis followed by Andrea Cuates hi my name is Vicki pearl I was a teacher for 32 years part of it in this

district and I'm now retired I kind of have a unique perspective being that I'm a colleague of Amy Campbell's I've subbed in her classroom numerous times and my daughter played for her she's a softball player I'm Eddie amy campbell four years ago when my daughter made the varsity softball team my daughter han is now a senior she

looks forward to playing for amy campbell in the spring in my numerous encounters with coach Campbell I have seen only professionalism I sit close to the dugout during home and away games to see the game because I'm old now I have heard lots of encouragement and positive suggestions to the softball players from coach Campbell she holds the players to

high standards and leads by example during team dinners I have visited with coach Campbell we've had him at our house and all the other players homes and it's always been a pleasure to talk to her and learn more about softball as a colleague I've been a guest teacher and Miss Campbell's class many many times last year I may have subbed for

her 15 to 20 times because she became a new wife she was ill several times so I saw what went on in her classroom she runs a tight ship she is hard no doubt about it she sets the bar high and expects the best from her students the type of teacher I want my children to have she's highly organized the students

know what is expected from them and it's always a pleasure to be in her classroom there's some teachers I would never stop for again I always say yes to an Amy Campbell's job it's a pleasure to be there and as a sub in her class many times I'm at the basketball team sixth period was PE we would take them into

the locker room they knew what was expected they challenged each other they had a good time the thing that surprised me the most was when I arrived in the morning the basketball students were waiting they wanted to be in her classroom I hung out at lunch in the classroom all the basketball players ten to twelve of these girls came in every

day and sat in her room a favorite place to hang out the safe haven of miss Campbell's classroom I look forward to another softball season with Coach Campbell I look forward to being in her classroom as a substitute teacher if need be coach Campbell is an example a teacher a great person and an excellent coach Chino Valley Unified

School District is lucky to have her as part of their team thank you very much thank you for this white ice followed by Andrea pot is followed by Sandra Tucker hello my name is George wise I've been a police officer for over 20 years I've coached youth sports for over 15 years and I'm in my third year coaching high

school baseball my daughter played for coach Campbell from 2008 to 2013 and five years later Here I am speaking on her behalf there's a reason how you've heard all the positives she's a tough coach yes but she helped my daughter develop skills that are tough to develop nowadays you know discipline good work ethic just being good members of

community and I think she really accomplished that with my daughter I really appreciate that that's why I'm here the experience is out of state yes Hawaii Oregon yeah hey I can't speak enough about that most coaches don't do that you know we don't do it in baseball but I know she does it in basketball truly appreciate it

you know I stand 100% behind coach Campbell because I know that she will stand in harm's way of any players she won't let anybody get hurt you know she's all positive the easy thing to do is to move in a different direction but the right thing to do is to stand behind somebody that gives 100% for student

athletes thank you and Draya Juarez followed by Sandra Tucker followed by Natalie Sanders good evening my name is Andrea waters I played basketball for coach Campbell throughout middle school at Magnolia junior high and high school level Chino High and iola coach Campbell was the reason that I transferred from Chino High to Iola high school after my freshman year I now attend Cal State San

Bernardino where I'm attaining my goal of becoming a history teacher and basketball coach myself I believe that the influence coach Campbell has had on me impacted my career choice and my six years of playing for Coach Campbell I receive guidance not only on the court but off of it as well she's always made sure her athletes were doing well in the

classroom and encouraged us to support the other programs within the school I believe she was a dedicated coach she works hard to bring out the full potential of each player on her team the extreme hard work and dedication from not only the players from coach Campbell as well helped us to achieve our goal of becoming League champs my senior year of

high school I genuinely believe that coach Campbell has contributed to not only my success but the success of the basketball program at Iola high school coach Campbell wasn't just a coach or a teacher she's someone I can count on I'm almost 23 years old now she's known me for half my life having been my coach at Magnolia when I was a seventh grader

and even now I've been out of high school for five years now and I know that she's just the phone call or text away if I ever need anything being a transfer student like many people were saying about staying in her classroom during lunch being a transfer student I didn't have that many friends I didn't know a lot of people but I know I always

had a friend in coach Campbell I always had a friend in the basketball girls that's why I would hang out in that room constantly before school during lunch after school one moment that will stick with me forever is my senior year I got in a car accident right on eucalyptus right by Lydell and the first person by

my side was no one other than coach Campbell she came to help me when I was afraid I was in tears I was a mess and she was the first person there to make sure that I was okay and that's something that will always stick with me and I do coach young ones now and my coaching style is basically based off of

hers I tried to deny totally teach them basketball but teach them life lessons also and I think that's a very important part especially when developing younger children so I have nothing but good things to say about coach Campbell and she has 100% of my support thank you thank you Sandra chakra followed by Natalie Sanders followed by Ashley Sanders

good evening I'd like to just uh Natalie Sanders I would like to read a little note that I did send to the administration at y'all at 4:00 coach Amy Campbell greetings I'm writing this note as a previous parent of a daughter that used to play for coach Campbell at Chino high school Alex played for two years with

her I was a very active parent and attended all games some practices and some field trip excursions with the team coach Campbell was a tough passionate and firm coach with high expectations as most coaches are but I never felt in any way that she was verbally abusive to any of the girls she always had the best interest of the girls was her priority

yes they worked hard and they practiced hard the coach Campbell was always fair and supportive of a supportive of the girls my youngest daughter Ashley had her as a teacher at Magnolia junior high so I know the coach side and the teacher side and both exemplified professionalism on and off the court we've kept in touch throughout the years

and I've even attended some games in spite of Alex transferring to Chino Hills High I think very highly of coach Campbell and appreciate the guidance support and friendship that she's offered to my family thank you Thank You Sandra Tucker hi my name is Ashley Sanders and I had the joy of knowing Miss Campbell for about 10 years now since she was my

middle school teacher my sister was coached by her and she also had as a teacher at Chino high and I wasn't able to have the joy of having her as a coach since I went to Chino Hills High even though I didn't have her as a coach she impacted my life as well as my families as my mom said I have nothing but

positive things to say about her although she's tough she's really understanding supportive encouraging and I wish I was able to actually have her as a coach I was jealous that my sister was lucky enough to have a coach like hers and she was holding everyone to such a high standard compared to a lot of coaches that I had I've never heard

her say any remarks that were offensive racist racist homophobic or disrespectful and my sister also wrote a letter that I'm gonna read since she wasn't able to be here she uh I first met miss Campbell during my sophomore year of high school 2010 when she became the varsity girls basketball coach at Chino high as a coach she always pushed

my teammates and myself to be the best women and players we can be she has always made it known to us that she does she does so because she cares about us and none of us ever questioned that even outside of basketball Miss Campbell is very caring and still supported me even though she transferred to Chino Hills

High School over the years we managed to keep in touch and I can consider her one of my mentors she's one of the coach she is the one coach for my sport it's chin ear that I regularly have conversations with because of her ongoing support I've never once felt any hostility from her both on and off the court

miss Amy Campbell has always been a role model to me and I continue to look up to her and what she's done for my hometown's community thank you thank you Ashe Sharma fought by John's ro followed by Juan de Lobo hi everybody good evening my name is ash I've been a part of the coaching staff for Iowa girls basketball on and off for

about the last seven years basically when I was in town I would be there to help the girls out and then I was living in Portland for a little bit so I wouldn't be here so that's why it was on and off when coach Campbell first told me what was happening I was extremely upset because as somebody who prides

myself on guiding younger people siblings little brothers nephews nieces and things like that to hear those words spoken about coach Campbell made me upset because throughout all my time over there had i known any of this stuff and I've been there I've been at the practices games fundraisers Christmas parties everything that Coach cam was done I've never seen any of that stuff

and it frustrates me knowing that somebody would say something about that about her in that way I don't believe that this is even a like attack on whether or not she can do this job or anything like that this has become an attack on her character and it's disappointing to see people do that in a time where student safety should be a

priority we should be trying to keep good people around our kids our nephews our nieces our little siblings as much as possible and Aimee Campbell is that person thank you John's ro followed by Juan Villalobos by Randy reams good evening my experience is a little bit different and my daughter who can't be here today is a freshman in coming to the program

so we've only been around coach Campbell for a small amount of time but luckily my job allows me to be able to attend most things that she does and so I was at all the summer league games daughter plays travel softball that's why she can't be here today I coached travel softball and a half years so seeing how

coach Campbell interacted with the students was important to me as this is not her primary sport and she hasn't played basketball in three plus years but she wanted to experience something different in high school and support Ayala and have some fun and meet new people or freshman year so throughout that process of going to the first week

of all the practices in four hours a day and all that fun stuff I asked her about her experience with the coach she had nothing but great things to say and a lot of what I've heard today is what Madison said was if you could hard work and effort in and you're not gonna have a problem with this coach she does not

accept someone that is not willing to work and doesn't want to get better and put that effort forward so she did want me to express that that in the short amount of time that she's worked with her she's had great conversations with her and that she's been a great coach for her so far thank you thank you

Juan Villalobos followed by Randy Weems followed by Maureen tijada hi good evening my name is Juan V Alva and I'm a parent of two Chino Valley School District students I'm here to voice my concerns regarding the current legal battle over the right to play during school board meetings I'm not necessarily concerned about your right to prepare this

practice preach revelation on your own time since the Constitution protected us in that regard but instead I'm appalled by what I consider a gross breach of the trust that we as parent and community members placed in you when we elected you to hold this office you decided to spend $300,000 on our tax money on a legal crusade has absolutely nothing to

do with the education of our children this only has to do with you and your believe on your right to pray preaching profess and even attempt to influence our faith while holding a position on a public office these actions look like nothing but a child is a narcissistic attempt to pat yourself on the back publicly publicly at our expense you

present yourself the champions of religious freedom which as I mentioned before is already protected by our Constitution if you want to spend $300,000 our to $300,000 our tax money to protect the right to educate something that is not protected by the Constitution then please go ahead takes my tax money too otherwise if you so believe the euro leeches freedom has

been trampled on go to your bank account in pay for the loss of yourself the Constitution says the church and state are to be separated we elected you to these public office to be a school board member or a priest or a pastor act as a school board member according to the National School Board Association the most important

responsibilities of a school board is to work on their communities to improve a student achievement in their local public schools school boards derive their power and authority from the state in compliance with state and federal laws school boards establish policies and regulations in which by the local schools are governed the school board is responsible for employing superintendent

developing and adopting policies curriculum in a budget can overseeing facility issues and adopting collective bargaining agreements the school board should not be responsible Randy reams thought by Maureen Kehoe that followed by Linda Higgins hello good evening school board doctor and field staff and community who my name is Randy Reims I'm a math teacher at Aiello High School and

the former head football coach I'm here to speak on behalf of Coach Amy Campbell I'm here to tell you coach Amy Campbell is a great person she's a great teacher she's a great coach and personally she's a great friend I've been working the home basketball games of the clock for the past nine or ten years so I've seen

up close and personal the type of coach that Coach Campbell is and coach Campbell is a very tough coach she expects a lot from her players and coach Campbell does an amazing job holding her girls accountable and pulling every last ounce of talent out of each and every girl who I respect coach Campbell so much that before I decided to resign as the head

football coach at ILM to spend more time with my family if I would have stayed another year I was going to approach coach Campbell to join my staff and coach with me in one facet or another I don't know if it would have worked out with her doing basketball hands and softball but that's what what I was

planning on doing coach Campbell really connects with her players as you've heard they hang out in her classroom they go on trips and coach Campbell is a coach that deserves to continue to be the coach of IL basketball in my opinion and it's my humble opinion if she is dismissed as the coach of the il basketball I will wish the program luck

but I want you to know that they'll be losing an amazing coach and an amazing person in my opinion coach Campbell is the glue that holds that program together thank you Thank You Maureen Cahaba followed by Linda Higgins followed by Jenny Beecham Maureen Quezada Linda Higgins Jenny Beecham Hector lekar Oh Hector look Hector lekar Oh I believe we're going to have to go past

three hundred per year and here are all the different rates for all five years that we're projecting and you can see that line lines up with the salaries as well some highlights on the books of supplies budgeting three hundred fifty dollars per student on approved textbooks a hundred dollars for reference materials planning on one-to-one student ratio for computers

budget at $350 per device also including every year a 20 percent replacement cost for textbooks and cost up to 25 per lunch meal could sort of estimate compared to current no costs and then services and operating expenses which are the five thousand accounts i know what issues with past special ed cost include all outside service provider costs also including the eldorado self

encroachment be in the budget the lines with the respective rates facilities we're gonna try to work with a district to secure prop 39 facility as this have been offered in previous attempts second option will allow the school to budget dollar fifty per square foot above the current commercial facility rental rate and charter school facility rental rates this will be for facilities 500

applications consultants as well as professional development to enhance teaching practices improve school's academic performance so what's the bottom line that's pretty small so we have five years of positive net income we're projecting steady growth from year to year conservative revenue projected as well as conservative county to expenses so one $146,000 in 1920 compared to nine hundred forty two

thousand and twenty three twenty four so Sasuke financials where we're at right now the current school has never had one internal control firing related to the financials or internal controls there also have a nine point four million dollar bond project for world and more facilities what quarterly finance report submitted to the bond financing company they have a good near greats and

relationship with authors and district for a will to my school financial reports have been submitted Tamra if all questions are responded to immediately and they've met the minimum standards of the five percent reserves have been met and exceeded good evening my name is Jeff Marah bateau and I am the director of curriculum instruction and assessment like to say I'm the director of the CIA

so I'm gonna talk about our program first though tonight I have the pleasure of speaking to you about the Sycamore Academy education program when you think of Sycamore Academy in Chino Valley you'll need to think about the opportunities that await the future students and the community of Chino Valley Sycamore Academy will be a safe environment Sycamore Academy will be a

school that children can grow in both socially and academically signor Academy is a spec school speck stands for student-centered problem-based experiential and collaborative aspects not just an acronym that we say but a belief that our students live we have looked deeply at how students learn best and we provide them with that learning environment every day so how do you

students students learn best learning best occurs when students are driven to solve a passionately held question sick more students are given opportunities to grapple with those questions this environment is created by excellent teachers that apply proven strategies to provide a rich and rigorous academic program some of these proven strategies include Stephen Covey seven Habits the growth mindset and Cayden classroom

structures utilizing these structures students learn to transform their learning environment into a cooperative learning community utilizing small groups of students who are enhancing their learning through interdependence our curriculum is at the forefront of academic success it is research-based proven common core and NGSS aligned and mixes new ideas with proven strategies jump math uses Socratic method while teaching math with

the belief that students are all undiscovered math prodigies we use step up to writing and words their way to teach writing fountas and pinnell as the backbone of our reading program and the california educational and environmental initiative to teach social science history and NGSS align sciences the middle school electives our CTE s that is Career and Technical Education

courses and students fourth through eighth grade are taught a language through the worldwide respected rosetta stone our cultural arts emphasis includes orphe music curriculum meet the Masters and many many service-learning opportunities our after-school program includes both inter scholastic and intramural outlet athletics we also offer a variety of clubs free of charge the clubs include health and wellness

clubs technology clubs critical thinking clubs community engagement clubs environmental clubs and academic tutoring at Sycamore Academy we're proud of our academic program and the social and academic growth our students demonstrate we know that the chino valley students and community will greatly benefit from the sycamore academy chino valley thank you my name's rich ants for counsel to sycamore

academy and you know when the lawyers present you know dark clouds arise but i want to speak personally about barbara hill and this team our firm is represented them since the beginning and I've been involved with charter schools for 20-plus years in the Inland Empire my family's from the Inland Empire those rights were raised and if there's a

charter school in the Inland Empire we probably had a hand in developing that school and I want to say something personal now Barbara Hale and the team at Sycamore because we've been with them since the beginning since before the beginning it was one of the schools I'm most proud of and they're they're a handful with me Inland Empire where I

I'm very proud to represent them because I think they they represent the best of what education can be and what I mean by that is that there to collaborators they work with their districts Barbara's developing and credible relationship with the lake elsinore Unified School District such that now they collaborate on projects regularly and we're very proud of that we like to

see that because that's why charter schools that's why the Charter Schools Act was passed it wasn't to set up a parallel structure was to set up a collaborative structure a place where innovation can occur and those innovations could feed back individuals school districts and back again kind of an iterative cycle if you will so I really want you to think about Sycamore

Academy and what they're doing currently it encourage you to look at the program and what it offers and encourage you to think about what it could bring to Chino Valley and to some residents of this district charter schools are typically small by design most of our schools serve between 300 to 600 students we have some larger schools of course and

we have simos that offer eight schools up and down the state but this is a small school that would do some very interesting innovative things I think would be a truly collaborative partner for the Chino Valley Unified School District so with that you've had a long night you spelled a long night together so we'll give you a closing right now

thank you very much for your time a little video that talks shows you our campus has some parents has some students and some community members down there we're happy to show it to you but given the times like a two and a half minute video given the time I'll leave that to you guys if you want to go to

questions or if you want to watch the video I like to watch the video first then we have questions yes two and a half minutes two and a half minutes I think we can do it okay okay Sycamore Academy is very much a part of the community Southwest Riverside is experiencing a great influx of migration from San Diego County Orange County and

parents are looking for a quality educational experience for their kids they don't want the traditional classroom but instead of looking for a place where kids have high level learning they're collaborating with others they're engaged in their communities and they're learning for meaning I think the biggest thing for me is the one-on-one attention that he gets with the school you know he has an IEP

and so teachers are spending quality time with him every location that he goes and the one-on-one attention really has helped him in the three years we've been here I really love Sycamore I think it's like a really unique school um because there's a lot of creative learning programs and ways we do things I feel that this goal has been positive

with them because other way the the philosophy the way their they teach kids and and that that fits my kids the teachers are highly trained the staff is highly trained everybody has very welcoming and parents are very happy with the learning outcomes of kids the reason why I love Sycamore Academy is because they have taught me so many

things that no other school could have taught me they have taught me how to work together in groups and to work on solutions to disagreement and to work on compromise which there glide how super economy in our community the staff attend our City Council meeting and we see the student into a community events the sell offer devices to their arts

showcase and how that ended when you're part of the community you're proud of it you want it to grow we're so happy not Sycamore Academy and will delight I like school because my teacher helped me to do my sight words and Mac and as I do my Mac and site where I get smarter and smarter one of the things that kids learn here

at Sycamore is to engage in service learning which takes them into the community to help others so they become part of the community Sycamore Academy of Science and Cultural Arts has been a part of my community for 10 years I'm sorry we just now saw that it's as Chino Hills in it should say Teno Valley so we

know the difference editor didn't so we're have to accept ok board members if you'd buzz in if you have questions mrs. Blair how many interested students have committed to attend Sycamore for fall of 2019 and when I say interested I mean truly meaningful lis interested so we just started collecting parent signatures on this petition because obviously all the

signatures from the last petition wouldn't count so I don't have that number for you because we just started doing that and I've been in professional development with my team when did you begin well then I guess that kind of will answer my next question because your cover letter to our board dated July 19th of this year states in part

the parents that we have been working with desire an additional choice in education for one or more of their children so how is it that you have parents but you just started collecting signatures yesterday and your letter to us was dated July 19th so the purpose of collecting the signatures is for submission and in order to submit this

in a timely manner so that by the time if we have to go to the state we don't have a facility issue this round we submitted with teacher signatures that's that meets the legal requirement but we have more than 300 families that supported the petition before we just started reaching out to them to see if they support this petition and I'm sure

that we're collecting signatures I just didn't check because we'll be submitting all that with a prop 39 but then the letter was dated July 19 yes and we this year so you're when you say you have parents that desire it it's from the last petition you submitted those signatures we still have contact with those parents so yes those parents still

want us to come here we had one parent come I didn't advertise coming to this meeting or anything we didn't we didn't encourage parents to come and speak we didn't know not we didn't know we did not ask parents to come and speak to this because we don't feel that we need to do that at this point we submitted

the petition with the appropriate number of signatures for teachers and then we're going to collect the signatures and you will have all those signatures when we submit the prop 39 so we have over 300 parents that have supported us we have 300 in the past not as of July 19th no I'm pretty sure that they'll still support us but we'll get

signatures and admit that to you I just I I would like truthful statements in what you submit to us so the cover letter is dated July 19th of 2018 and you state that the parents you have been working with for theirs well I think that's what should have been included in here and not try to allude to the fact that you have now new

parents supporting this as of July 19 I think that letter says new parents but your comment is noted that you don't like the way I didn't say it said new I said it alludes to it okay okay mr. na yeah from that clip I talked about special ed parents and and he was quite happy can you expand that and what is

the percentage of the population student population was in special ed program 13% of our population at our well damar school isn't special ed we have a really good reputation in our special ed community we serve a lot of students with autism that's our our biggest draw autism and addr the majority of our special ed students we have two ed

specialists with reading specialists but just the sheer design of our program lends itself to help students with a attention deficit and for students on the spectrum to learn social skills we do a lot of Kagan structures which teaches them strategies to improve social skills thank you mm-hmm mrs. Orozco I'm glad you corrected that because I was gonna say we're cheetah valley so we

covered Chino Chino Hills and South Ontario we know I'm sorry that I should have watched it again and I just didn't so so I think there it's no secret that I'm a big advocate of governance and transparency and one of our well first let me let me ask a question so you're you Ronald Reagan charter there was at school Alliance board

members got the story behind the Hat first where the Ronald Reagan charter school - because the original group that started our organization came from Ronald Reagan Elementary School that's the whole name to clarify okay but so are any of the board members do they have school-age students that attend Waldemar charter school that did the last one just aged out this past

graduation okay that would be Elizabeth alkis sir just one well the year before that Daniel Levitt student aged out okay so when or how would parents from Chino Valley be able to serve on that board they could immediately the board size can be up to nine we have five I thought I read somewhere that only two parents

are permitted on the governing board currently we have zero okay but why only two we don't that because and I say that because one of our prior charter schools had issues with the governing board and I think it's important when parents are on the governing board because they have a vested interest absolutely so we practice having diversity of thought on

our board so we have former superintendent we have a university professor Elizabeth is a special education teacher Daniel is it was a business owner now he's in a different field and then Matt is a banker so we welcome parents we need a parent perspective but we don't need only the about different parents we need perspective from a variety of sources

and the board has deemed that two parents is the number that they want I mean that's a good representation but also in order to get on our board you have to go through school site Council and that's 50% parents 50% staff so people can only get on our board by interviewing with our school site council to approve them so our parents

have a lot more say-so in who comes on to our board than just the two parents that sit on our board so how are you advertised for for the board members well throughout our school or I mean word of mouth because we get community members and things like that too you made a comment about diversity of thought but yet somewhere I read that

your trustees have to have knowledgeable be knowledgeable of the theory and practices constructivist theory and practices so how do you know if a parent satisfies that requirement well I think the parents do just because they they've chosen this program so they know how it works but board members that are almost said want to be I don't mean it that way

but people that want to be on our board that need a better understanding of constructivism we meet with them the staff does we help them to understand that so that they can serve because that is what our charter petition is so in order to lead our organization as a board member you need to understand what we're doing so we help them with it and

all of our board members didn't come to us the constructivist understanding but they are there now okay so you're proposing to have one board to oversee to two communities that's correct and you realize we've had difficulty with that I totally understand I completely understand so how do you guard against the difficulties that we've had well I'm under the impression that the majority

of those difficulties were fiscal I don't know all the cultural stuff I just know the aftermath because I wasn't involved with your prior experience just what happened at the end of it so fiscally we're doing very well and as John pointed out our school down in well damar started in the worst deferrals in recent education and we've done very

well there so if the fiscal part is the difficulty I don't I don't see the parallel there if you're worried about a school for us we just have those fiscal issues if you're worried about a board managing two different schools our practices would remain the same so managing two different communities you know as we are elected we're elected by the people in Chino

Valley and South Ontario to represent the the parents here you already have a board that represents the parents or the community in Wildomar not in Chino Valley but parents or community members from Chino Valley would need to be added to the board when we have a school in Chino Valley so I I mean that's how we don't think I would I would also like to

ask you you had eight teachers signatures which is what is required eight teachers half half of the number of first year so yes so but five of them are currently teaching in your other facility that was so there are only three teachers that are wanting to come to Gina no because we have teachers just like a dysplastic that lived here but

live here in Chino but drive down to Wildomar to work okay and how many students do you have it the will democracy was kinder than something and what did you start with 10 years ago 250 are there any other questions mr. Cruz you didn't you aren't you posing as your buzzer oh sorry have all these scaffolding techniques

but you mentioned social interaction is the best teaching methodology it's the best compared to everything else dealing with reciprocal teaching using the whiteboards and you know you're dealing with PJ and this is Casa T about methods of you know how kids can develop mmm-hmm you use the word constructivist practices in your daily practice in your curricula what is that consistent in the

classroom okay so short definition of constructivism is we have to present students with the the setting to construct their knowledge to understand they have to grapple with things and work through them in order to understand how they work together you don't learn as much when someone tells you something as you do is when when you work through it

so in the nutshell now I can give you a whole nother definition how is that different from the common core approach common core standards so it aligns approach with cutting the common core standards is hands-on and so how is that different from the methodology that we use to achieve those standards okay I don't think it is different but I think

that our approach has been we've done this for 10 years and I think it aligns well with what common core is expecting any other questions from the board so I now open the public hearing is mrs. Kaler yes now I open the public hearing yes at 10:40 p.m. are there any speakers okay having no further requests to speak I now close

Insel the board and the cabinet for your time my name is joy candy stirrer I'm here to

ask you for your approval of my leave of absence I would like to give you a little bit of my history in this community as and the district Chino has been my home for my whole life I grew up here attending Alisha Cortes Woodcrest and Chino High a couple years after receiving my BA I began working as an

instructional aide in our space but between Cortez and Walnut Avenue Elementary a little over a year later I transferred to Howard cattle elementary in special education and I'm still currently working at that school I've been employed in this district for a little over eleven years by request for a leave of absence is from August 27th through December 14th this consists of

73 work days I'm in need of this leave because I am participating in clinical practice to receive my teaching credential my first eight weeks will take place at Lisle Briggs from the middle I've been working on my multiple subject teaching credential and master's degree in education for the past year this is a Pacific University I've four more courses along with clinical

practice to complete in the next 16 weeks I look forward to continuing working with this district following the completion of my credential it was explained to me that not granting my leave of absence would be beneficial to me because it would open up doors for me to be able to student teach and make a little bit more money while I was

waiting to take a permanent position while this might sound nice it isn't beneficial to me I am a brain cancer survivor a couple years before I applied for my first position in the district I had 3 brain surgeries and multiple rounds of radiation the original cancer was quite aggressive I temporarily lost most of my vision but thankfully

regained it again 5 years later two more tumors were removed one was in my brain and one on my spinal cord thankfully they weren't as aggressive as the original it is because of this medical history that I asked you to consider granting my leave of absence I like to continue with my current medical coverage I've been healthy with no signs of

cancer for almost eight years now but I would like the security of having insurance it originally surprised me that I was denied believe of absence because I would work in an educational setting that strives to prepare its students for college and career as a long-term employee seeking further education for it for a career in education I was expecting support by

granting leave I love working with kids and encouraged over the years by teachers as well as administrators to get my credential I ask you to consider all the time I have invested in this district and its students thank you again dr.

Enfield I really enjoyed your video how many takes did it take for that last basketball shot Wow okay [Laughter] okay so as was mentioned earlier the first day I was intended the Ramona junior high school red carpet it was really cool I think the parents were having just as much fun walking down the red carpet as the kids were Marsha

Cruz thank you yes and we also should thank mr. Emmy preach she probably helped with the video Jaime so she did it fantastic though job you got

the Battle of the bones coming on Friday so that was gonna be real exciting of event I do want to repeat what mr. Bennett mentioned about Friday the 24th at the the community building and she knows me they Center the community center from 7:00 to 7:30 pop hits from 8:00 to 9:00 my nurse struts so I just like to say

just for parents to be aware and that is that you know Chino Valley is on 90% complaint compliant with the California healthy youth act on the comprehensive sex education the curriculum is called positive preventive plus you know parents should have the right to opt out from the comprehensive sexual education in California Healthy Act well I know my

my Danish eat she started this week and she really enjoyed her on education you know her first day of school she loves school same with my son too so I'm very fortunate to so my kids go into a great community great experiences that they'll have from now until they graduated from high school so I'm very grateful to live

in it area where my kids play and they feel safe so thank you so well we're here we are at the start of another school year and like the start of many school years students and their families often find themselves amid changes and challenges especially those entering junior high from elementary and high school from junior high the higher the

grade level the more intense the changes and challenges can be we live in a world of revolutionary technology artificial intelligence and of course let's not forget to forever present world right web it has given us Google and other platforms to communicate and learn through they also have the capacity to control a huge amount of information that we get students part of education

is a journey to the marketplace of ideas and exchange of thoughts through freedom of speech you should listen with intention question with integrity and investigate concepts that are new to you agree or disagree don't just go along with the popular narrative really think about thoughts and ideas and the impact they have are they truly yours or someone else's you know that

the turn-of-the-century cities had town squares in which citizens stood on soap boxes and freely gave speeches gave opinions and had debates and discussions to find common ground or maybe not but they had had the right idea freedom to participate in exchange of ideas back then it was a town square today is the World Wide Web the soapbox are the

social media social media now that's a very complex communication tool those that run social media control how and when they allow you to communicate these powerful entities willed their control through censorship over what you read and often limit your ability to engage in or oppose the multitude of opinions and thoughts let us never forget that the history has shown bad ideas are most

often defeated by good ideas backed up by ethics and reason rather than censorship a free society depends on enhancing ideas regardless of the potential capability of offending someone without the market ideas our current understanding of the world will be unrecognizable and entirely false as our policy states the Board of Education believes that free inquiry and exchange of ideas are essential part of a

democratic education so for me discourse is truly all we have control so never be afraid to talk user words right do it from a position of careful thought think and investigate the potential for greatness is waiting for you thank you mrs. Blair I want to commend all of the students and parents who spoke regarding their views and their experiences at a

Yala high school it is never easy to come forward and share your truth and your experience granted there were many speakers who said that they didn't encounter any abuse either emotionally or physically and that's great but we had 10 speakers that addressed their concerns how they were made to feel and we cannot ignore that fact I do want to thank the parents

who are supporting their daughters because I wish that at dawn local high school the parents had supported their sons in the same manner instead of hushing them and telling them that they shouldn't talk about what took place there is one student who have I been communicating with through Instagram who wants badly to transfer out of that high

school but his parents have told him that they don't want to hear about what happened in that classroom that he is to go to school every day today as we were in closed session there was a parent who shared what her son is going through four former freshman football player who will be requesting a transfer to a Ala

high school so though these boys have been made to be silent there are some stepping up to be heard and I just asked the group of students who were here tonight that as these boys enter the campus at a yellow high school that you help them be free so that they too can experience the freedom that you've

experienced today by being able to have the support of your parents and to be able to share your truth I want to thank and let dr. Hill know about the stellar work that dr. Carr does over the summer my son took online course a Spanish course through Cal State San Bernardino he figured out something I didn't know

that if you take foreign language so he took Spanish one and then took Spanish to over the summer and then him he takes Spanish three in tenth grade then he has set into the UC program I didn't know that my son you that enrolled himself and got his B - over the summer but it's not promoted enough instead what the

counselor did at don Lugo was promote a charter school it wasn't until I brought it to your attention that you said well we also have it dr. Carter's campus and so we rushed over there and we were able to get it but I think we need to promote it more because I think it was a fabulous program to be able to do it at home his

exams were Skyped in Spanish you know the the exam and and everything we only had to visit his campus one time and so I just think we we need to do a better job of promoting that which we have and if we can promote the the fact that if they take the three years of foreign language before sophomore year that

they're on track for UC go figure that I would learn something at 50 years old from my 15 year old but so I'm glad that he got that done your video was amazing I shared it on my personal Facebook page and parents agreed with me that you're like a breath of fresh air it they loved it they're looking forward to exciting

new things and and they are elated of the fact that the status quo is not part of your your plan and so thank you for that it was a really good video and you looked really young in the video I don't know somebody did your makeup you a gorilla and doctor and films on the video I want to congratulate Yala

High School's freshman and JV teams because they beat Chino Hills High School today in the first part of the battle for the bone so kudos to them the big game is tomorrow so hopefully it'll it'll continue but at least for today they they did an amazing job and I just want to close by asking again and well first

thanking dr. Enfield that please the revamping of the expectations for coaches at for every sport that did not fall to the wayside we we need changes in that area I mean there are a lot of changes that we need to do in the district but please don't let it fall to the wayside especially as its heightened right now so but I want

to thank you for everything you're doing and y'all owe High School's drop-off is out of control right now because there's a lot of materials everywhere and so the sheriff's are loving it because they have ten cars pulled over every morning ticketing and but we have no drop-off so I went from Briggs having an issue now I'm at a Yala having an issue and I

guess it comes with the territory but I know that we will probably start receiving complaints because there is no drop-off right now so welcome to a new school year have a good night congratulations for our seller but I'd like to thank your mom is your mom hi silly are silly okay can I have your mom stand up like to thank you

let me tell you as my parents that told me you couldn't be here without your parents so always respect your mom listen to her please one day you were gonna become my mom stay always positive no matter what happens and be grateful for this life and your family time travels real fast as you get older but there are certain things that you

have to send out right principles especially protecting innocent young helpless weak people I want you to have respect honor and compassion for the rest of your life for others thank you let's give a big round of rocks I have attended Buena Vista High School for the first day kids were excited excellent staffs great principal new principal people were very excited and

it was good to see and hear from students they are concerned with their future they want to find good job they want to get good grades and also they want to go to good four-year school so I wasn't really excited because our young people are thinking and that's really good although there are few stirs then had much of a hope maybe the situation's

they're facing and as we have done it when we were young but we need to let them know there's always a chance to be successful and as an adult over 18 years old I think that is our duty to support them any way we can I like to thank Brenda Walker she served many students who need really

needed help and and you've been placed on your position to serve more students thank you for mentioning about the kids all the time because I knew from your heart yeah you mister yes and then you Hernandez you also are always concerned with our students and I think we have a great team our great cabinet members so I'm really hoping for

a bright year so thank you Thank You superintendent and filter out the district I want to thank all of them for all the work that they do year in and year out to a great started the school year every year we seems to go very smoothly and and this year was no exception the other part I want to wish

all of our students best year ever and that will conclude my comments I have a few comments I attended the back-to-school meet your teacher event at rolling Ridge Wow people lined up around the whole neighborhood mmm but the most striking piece for me was how hard the teachers and staff had to work that day to make that happen and that

came out of there one preschool day so I would like to say as you drive around the community before school starts look how many cars are in the parking lot our school parking lots are overflowing with people donating their time donating their time I see them coming in with the paper and the markers and the so many

donations from our staff members and I hope it is well appreciated because I think sometimes that goes on the scenes and people don't even notice you know or don't even know those aren't workdays they're all just there to get ready it's a it's a huge huge gift to our community from our employees and I thank them for it and I hope you all

know that our students are better off for all of those efforts and then lastly I did want to talk about my vote last meeting on the invocation lawsuit I've been on this board for four years that lawsuit has been part of our discussions for the past four years it's interesting to me to hear people say oh it's only

ceremonial what's the big deal I don't think it's only ceremonial I think it's deeply felt and I think because it's deeply felt that's why we lost if it were only ceremonial we'd give it up why would we continue to fight this my concern is the money that we must be prepared to pay comes out of the money

that we've been given to educate our children it is a noble fight I just don't think it's our fight and even though we have been told that there are is money that is being raised the school district has not received any money and so we are on the hook for over a quarter of a million dollars and yet we're

pushing forward that is why I'm opposed to that and I hope that clarifies my position for those who wonder with that I will adjourn the meeting at 1113
