January 24, 2017 CUSD Board of Trustees Meeting: Consent Calendar 

CONSENT CALENDAR

All matters listed under the Consent Calendar are considered by the Board to be "routine" and will be enacted by the Board in one motion in the form listed below. There will be no discussion of these items prior to the time the Board votes on the motion unless members of the Board, staff, or the public request specific items to be discussed and/or removed from the Consent Calendar. The Superintendent and the staff recommend approval of all Consent Calendar items.

Note: CUSD put the purchase of the Esencia School Site on the Consent Calendar without a price. The amount paid turned out to be $13 million more than previously disclosed because CUSD valued the land as if it had 100 homes on it. This resulted in the gifting of $13 million in taxpayer dollars to the Ranch and is the subject of a DA Investigation.

It is very important for tax payers to watch all Consent Calendar Items.

PUBLIC COMMENT is now limited to 5 minutes per speaker total no matter how many Items an individual speaker wishes to comment on. This is a NEW rule was put in place to limit Public scrutiny of the Consent Calendar.

BLUE CARDS should be pulled on the following Items for the reasons stated below:

Business and Support Services: Agenda Items

Blue Card Dawn Urbanek

On January 26, 2016 I presented the CUSD BOT with a presentation entitled to "Fundraising for Core Educational Programs" and asked that CUSD meet it's statutory and constitutional obligation to fund all Core Educational programs as identified in Education Code Section 51210 and 51220. 

CUSD relies on fundraising and donations to pay for art - music and science- class size reduction- teachers salaries and release time- instructional aids - technology and teachers salaries and release time. 

THE ONLY THING CUSD PAYS FOR IS EMPLOYEE COMPENSATION

Using one-time money to pay for on-going core educational programs creates wealth based inequities within the district that violate the Civil rights of students. Students whose parents cannot fundraise for these programs go without. 

When parents are forced to fundraise for core educational programs that the district is constitutionally and statutorily obligated to provide (year after year... after year), it becomes a tax upon the public. A new tax for a service that the State/District is already constitutionally obligated to provide. Such taxation is a "Double Tax" and is "taxation without representation".

AGENDA ITEM #20 - 30 Human Resource Services  

Agenda Items #20 to #30 

Agenda Item  #20 SECOND QUARTER REPORT – WILLIAMS SETTLEMENT LEGISLATION UNIFORM COMPLAINT

Board Agenda page 572

Board Audio: None

The Eliezer Williams, et al., vs. State of California, et al. (Williams) case was filed as a class action in 2000 in San Francisco County Superior Court.

The case was settled in 2004, and as a result school districts must provide public school students with equal access to instructional materials, safe and decent school facilities, and qualified teachers. 

Board Policy 1312.4 mandates school districts establish policies and procedures to resolve deficiencies related to textbooks and instructional materials, teacher vacancies or mis-assignments, and facility conditions posing a threat to student/staff health or safety. Furthermore, Education Code § 35186 requires any deficiencies or complaints be reported to the Board of Trustees at a regularly scheduled public meeting each quarter.

Decent Schools for Children 

Facilities page 25

No Blue Card Was Pulled- I would have pulled this Item if I was able to attend.

The report states that OCDE requested data regarding uniform complaints related to textbooks and instructional materials, facility conditions, and teacher vacancies or mis-assignments received during the fourth quarter.

Then states: No Complaints were filed in your district during the period April through June 2017.
