AGENDA – February 19, 2015 4.0 CONSOLIDATED MOTION FOR CONSENT CALENDAR SITES AND CONSTRUCTION

4.8 Approve a Three-Year E-rate Equipment Purchasing Contract for Vector USA for the Purchase of Necessary Hardware to continue our Fast and Reliable Internet Access and Approve a Non-Contract Month to Month Agreement with Sprint for Continued Cell Phone Service (Action)

Background Information: The District issued an E-rate Form 470 (535120001247418) and posted two Requests for Proposals (RFP’s) for network equipment and for cell phone service. The background for each is discussed below:

RFP-2015-01 Network Equipment: In order to provide reliable and fast network and Internet access to our classrooms and offices, the District uses network “routing equipment” at each school to manage and distribute the Internet we obtain from SDCOE and the bandwidth we obtain from Cox Communications. These important routers, purchased from 2006-2009, will reach their “end-of-support” status on October 30, 2016, (as published by Cisco Systems, the manufacturer). In addition as the District technology plan requires increasing Internet speeds for voice, video and data applications, the ability to “cache” Internet traffic for frequently visited websites will greatly improve our performance. The District would like to enter into a three-year purchasing agreement with Vector USA to replace these routers with newer models that also provide caching services. During 2015-16 the router at the high school will be replaced and the caching solution implemented and proven. In years two and three routers at the other schools will be replaced.

RFP 2015-02 Bundled Cell Phone Service: Cellular phone service at all our sites is sub-standard due to our island location and our large Navy Base. Four vendors proposed solutions for Bundled Cell Phone Service for our consideration (see the chart below). “Bundled” service includes both cellular and Internet/data services. The Request for Proposal and selection process for both RFP’s are described below.

Report: RFP-2015-01 Network Equipment:

An RFP and an E-Rate form 470 #200810001260842 Application for the above project was issued on 12/14/2014. The RFP and related Addenda were available to vendors on the same day at http://coronadousd.net/departments/business-services/erate/. CUSD requested bidders to respond to multiple router and caching services solutions for engineering consideration. The District evaluation team recommended the combined Cisco ISR 4451 Router and IWAN / Akamai Caching System proposal. Five vendors responded by the RFP deadline on January 19, 2015. The chart below describes the overall vendor status and full weighted evaluation scores of the two finalist bidders (Datel and Vector) for the above router and caching solution. If funded, E-rate will reimburse the District for 40% of the total cost for this equipment.

Cost became the deciding factor with recommendation to acquire product from Vector USA.

RFP-2015-02 Bundled Cell Phone Service: An RFP and an E-Rate form 470 #200810001260842 Application for the above project was issued on 12/14/2014. The RFP and related Addenda were available to vendors on the same day at http://coronadousd.net/departments/business-services/erate/. Four vendors responded by the RFP deadline on January 19, 2015.

The chart below describes the overall vendor status and full weighted evaluation scores of each responsive vendor. The evaluation committee recommended that CUSD continue the existing month-to-month service with our current vendor (Sprint) as evaluated based on existing inventory of new phones, cost, coverage, customer support, existing features and technology. Verizon and Sprint provided responsive proposals. If funded, E-rate will reimburse the District for 20% of the total cost for this equipment.

AGENDA – February 19, 2015 5.0 BUSINESS & FISCAL MANAGEMENT

5.1 Adopt Resolution to Refinance Existing Certificates of Participation (Action)

Background Information: The District periodically reviews its debt portfolio to consider refinancing opportunities and reduce debt service payments. The Certificates of Participation issued in 2005 to finance various facilities projects within the District have been identified as a potential refinancing candidate.

Report: At the January 15, 2015, Board meeting the Board of Trustees was presented with

information from the District’s financial advisor, Lori Raineri and Keith Weaver of Government Financial Strategies, regarding the opportunity to refinance the 2005 Certificates of Participation debt to achieve savings. At this meeting the Board of Trustees is asked to consider passing a Resolution (attached) that would authorize proceeding with the refinancing opportunity. In addition, the Board will be approving a series of legal documents and agreements that are all required to carry out the refinancing. Currently they are in draft form and will be finalized and executed once the bonds are sold. Tonight the Board will be approving them "in substantially the form on file with the Clerk of the Board." Financial Impact: The Certificates of Participation are an obligation of the District’s General Fund. The savings achieved from refinancing is estimated at this time, based on current market conditions, to be approximately $645,000 over 21 years. The District could save $770,000 over the same time period if it chooses to prepay $1 million in debt principal, or $900,000 if it chooses to prepay $2 million in debt principal, by applying cash available for such purposes from Fund 40. The attached report from Government Financial Strategies details the assumptions underlying the expected savings.

MEMORANDUM To: Dr. Keith Butler From: Lori Raineri Keith Weaver Date: February 3, 2015 Re: Reducing Debt With Cash On Hand Keith, as you know, one of the District’s goals in managing its outstanding debt is to reduce its interest cost, and thus we are currently considering refinancing the outstanding certificates of participation issued in 2005. (The Board information presentation from January 15, 2015 is attached for reference). One way to reduce interest payments is to reduce the amount of principal outstanding, and given that the District has an available fund balance in Fund 40 which is to be spent on capital expenditures, one use of this cash on hand could be to pay some of the principal of the 2005 certificates of participation outright, rather than refinance it. In general, reducing principal outstanding should always be considered. The key questions when using cash to pay down debt are: a) to confirm that the cash is not needed for cash flow, b) if the purpose of the original financing comports to the allowable uses for the cash, and finally, c) whether the change in the capital structure of the District (reducing cash and reducing long-term liabilities) makes economic sense. The first two questions you’ve already answered, so the remaining question is addressed below. As mentioned above, the District has available fund balance in Fund 40, the source of which was redevelopment pass-through payments. The District is considering three options:

1) Refinance without contributing available fund balance 2) Use $1 million of available fund balance 3) Use $2 million of available fund balance

By using its cash to prepay debt, the District will save both interest cost over time and upfront financing costs. However, the District forgoes the use of this cash for other opportunities – this is referred to as “opportunity cost”. For purposes of analysis, we assume the opportunity cost is investment of the cash in the County pool earning 0.5% interest annually, followed by use of the cash towards a facilities project in 5 years time. Based on current interest rates and market conditions (subject to change):

Option 3: Use $2 Million $6,380,000 $440,000 $185,000$10,000 annually, $2 Million in 5 Years $1,385,000 $900,000

Notes:1) Net payment on current situation is after interest earnings on reserve account.2) Opportunity cost is based on 0.5% annual interest earnings followed by expenditure in 5 years time.Assumed 0.5% annual interest rate based on San Diego County Pooled Money Fund of 0.45% for calendar year 2014.3) Based on interest rates as of January 12, 2015 using Municipal Market Data (MMD).4) Total savings is after opportunity cost and after transfering from cash funded reserve account to surety bond.5) Net present value discount rate based on estimated borrowing rate of 3.26% using true interest cost (TIC). As you can see, the District realizes savings on a net present value basis even after accounting for the opportunity cost. As a result, we would suggest the District contribute as much cash as would be reasonably affordable. Even if the District needs more funds in 5 years’ time, the District will at least lock in the additional savings for 5 years. Please let us know if you have any questions. Thank you.

AGENDA – February 19, 2015 5.0 DISTRICT ORGANIZATION AND BOARD OPERATION

5.2 Agree with the Superintendent’s Signing of the Future Ready District Pledge (Action) Background Information:

As Chairman of the ACSA Region 18 Superintendents, I am leading the San Diego and Imperial County Superintendents to take the Future Ready District Pledge offered by the U.S. Department of Education. This pledge is designed to set out a roadmap to achieve personalized digital learning for every student in the nation and to commit districts to move as quickly as possible towards our shared vision of preparing students for success in college, careers and citizenship. As education leaders, we are committing to take a leadership role in this transition with recognition and resources offered by the federal government to help facilitate this transition to digital learning.

About the Effort

Future Ready is a free, bold new effort to maximize digital learning opportunities and help school districts move quickly toward preparing students for success in college, a career, and citizenship. The effort provides districts with resources and support to ensure that local technology and digital learning plans align with instructional best practices, are implemented by highly trained teachers, and lead to personalized learning experiences for all students. The Alliance for Excellent Education and the U.S. Department of Education are leading this effort with the support of the Leading Education by Advancing Digital (LEAD) Commission and a vast coalition of organizations.

What Is Future Ready? At the center of the effort is a series of regional summits where district teams from all over the country will develop action plans and metrics to measure their progress in using digital tools to improve teaching and student learning outcomes. The summits will focus on a comprehensive set of issues that drive student learning, will highlight the experiences of districts in each region, and will offer district leaders tangible ways to build capacity among their teams and throughout their districts. A team from Coronado will be in the San Francisco summit on May 4-5.

_________________________________________________________________________________ Superintendent’s Recommendation: That the Board agrees wholeheartedly with the Superintendent’s signing of this pledge as a commitment by the Superintendent and all District employees to work with educators, families, and community members to make all schools and programs in the Coronado Unified School District Future Ready. The Superintendent is encouraged to support other superintendents in the region as they transition their districts to personalized, digital learning.

The Future Ready District Pledge Developed by the U.S. Department of Education in October 2014, this pledge is a

commitment by district leaders to work with educators, families, and community members to

make all schools in their districts Future Ready. The Future Ready Schools effort will

encourage and support superintendents as they transition their districts to personalized,

digital learning.

I, Jeffrey P. Felix, Superintendent of Coronado Unified School District, do hereby affirm the commitment of this District to work with students, educators, families, and members of our community to become Future Ready by engaging in a wide range of activities such as: Fostering and Leading a Culture of Digital Learning Within Our Schools Future Ready district leadership teams work collaboratively to transform teaching and learning using the power of technology to help drive continuous improvement. We work together to protect student privacy and to teach students to become responsible, engaged, and contributing digital citizens.

Helping Schools and Families Transition to High-speed Connectivity Future Ready districts conduct comprehensive diagnostic assessments of the district’s technology infrastructure and develop a sustainable plan to ensure broadband classroom connectivity and wireless access. Future Ready districts work with community partners to leverage local, state, and federal resources to support home Internet access outside of traditional school hours.

Empowering Educators through Professional Learning Opportunities Future Ready districts strive to provide everyone with access to personalized learning opportunities and instructional experts that give teachers and leaders the individual support they need, when they need it. Future Ready districts provide tools to help teachers effectively leverage learning data to make better instructional decisions.

Accelerating Progress Toward Universal Access for All Students to Quality Devices Future Ready districts work with necessary stakeholders to ensure that all students and educators across the district have regular access to devices for learning. Future Ready districts develop tools to support a robust infrastructure for managing and optimizing safe and effective use of technology, so students have opportunities to be active learners, creating and sharing content, not just consuming it.

Providing Access to Quality Digital Content Future Ready districts align, curate, create, and consistently improve digital materials and apps used in the support of learning. Future Ready districts use carefully selected high quality digital content that is aligned to college and career ready standards as an essential part of daily teaching and learning. Teachers are able to share, discover, and adapt openly-licensed materials and teaching plans.

of 70

Offering Digital Tools to Help Students and Families #ReachHigher Future Ready districts make digital resources available that help access expanded college, career, and citizenship opportunities. Future Ready districts promote ways to leverage technology to expand equity through digital activities such as completion of the FAFSA online, virtual counseling services, college scholarship search tools, and online advising access, all of which help to return America to the nation in the world with the highest college completion rate by 2020.

Mentoring Other Districts and Helping Them Transition to Digital Learning Future Ready districts work to design, implement, and share their technology plans. Future Ready districts join regional summits, participate in an online Connected Superintendents community of practice, and publish their Future Ready technology plan at a site such as www.MyDistrict.org/FutureReady.

Future Ready Schools is a bold new effort to maximize digital learning opportunities and help school districts move quickly toward preparing students for success in college, a career, and citizenship. Beginning with an active planning process, the Future Ready effort will help any district develop the human and technological capacity needed to personalize learning. With more than 1,600 districts already signing the Future Ready District Pledge, the Alliance for Excellent Education (the Alliance) and the U.S. Department of Education (ED) are leading this effort with the support of the Leading Education by Advancing Digital (LEAD) Commission and a vast coalition of organizations.

This effort comes at a critical time as districts embrace college and career readiness as the goal for all students and recognize the potential of digital tools to help teachers personalize learning for each student. Future Ready Schools provides districts with resources and support to ensure that local technology and digital learning plans align with instructional best practices, are implemented by highly trained teachers, and lead to personalized learning experiences for all students, particularly those from traditionally underserved communities.

While less than 30 percent of U.S. schools have the bandwidth they need to teach using today’s technology, federal and state efforts are expanding that capacity with the goal of bringing high-speed internet access to 99 percent of the nation’s schools within five years. Such connectivity, along with strategic planning by districts to maximize its availability, has the potential to transform the educational experiences of all students, regardless of their background.

The Alliance and ED launched the Future Ready Schools effort on November 19, 2014, at “ConnectED to the Future,” where 118 of the nation’s most innovative superintendents gathered at the White House to share their experiences of implementing digital learning in their districts. The summit also recognized more than 1,000 district leaders from across the country who took the Future Ready District Pledge, indicating their commitment to develop the human and technological capacity needed to personalize learning using digital tools. Future Ready schools are those with empowered teachers and leaders, students who take charge of their learning, and the tools to support a more personalized approach to ensuring college and career readiness for all students.

At the center of this effort is a series of Future Ready Regional Summits where district teams will develop action plans and metrics to measure their progress in using digital tools to improve teaching and student learning outcomes. Regional summits will take place in 2015 in or near six to twelve of the following metropolitan areas: Atlanta, Georgia; Baltimore, Maryland; Chicago, Illinois; Dallas, Texas; Denver, Colorado; Phoenix, Arizona; Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; Raleigh, North Carolina; Vancouver, Washington; San Francisco, California; St. Louis, Missouri; and Providence, Rhode Island.

The summits will focus on a comprehensive set of issues that drive student learning including curriculum, instruction, and assessment; professional learning; technology, networks, and hardware; budget and resources; data and privacy; use of time; and community partnerships. Trained facilitators skilled at using technology and digital learning effectively, many of them Future Ready partners, will lead the regional summits. The summits will highlight the experiences of districts in each region and offer district leaders tangible ways to build capacity among their teams and throughout their districts.

Before attending a regional summit, participating districts will complete a Future Ready self-assessment to identify the specific strengths and weaknesses of their technology infrastructure and staff capacity.

Each team will leave the summit with a concrete action plan for creating a Future Ready school district. The summits also will encourage cross-district collaboration as participants join an active network of regional experts and other district leaders committed to sharing information and lessons learned. Throughout the coming year, participating districts will access a collection of resources compiled by the Future Ready partner organizations to support them as they implement their digital learning plans.

The Future Ready Leadership Network will support all districts that take the Future Ready District Pledge, regardless of whether district representatives attend a summit. Through the Network, districts will access the Future Ready assessment and receive a customized report to guide their development of concrete action plans. Other Network features include (1) online resources crafted by local leaders and experts associated with more than thirty-five national partner organizations (listed below), (2) webinars and expert advisory chats, (3) information about district exemplars, (4) a community of mentoring districts, and (5) support tracking their progress as districts implement their plans.

6.2 Adopt Proposed Changes to Coronado Unified School District Board Policy – Interdistrict Attendance (Proposal/First Reading)

Background Information: In order to accommodate the Board’s wishes to increase enrollment in order to boost revenue, the Superintendent proposes that the current Board Policy AR 5117 be changed to allow greater flexibility for school administrators. The current procedure for reviewing Interdistrict Transfer (IDT) applications has been to wait until after the first day of school to determine if room in classrooms is available. This process does not yield the greatest number of IDT applicants since most students have already enrolled and attended class in another school for sometimes as long as a month in the new school year. While this process does not yield a high number of IDTs, it does ensure that classrooms do not exceed the enrollment limit. This is especially true for the high school where overcrowding seems to be the norm, not the exception.

Bottom line – enrollment is different every year; it is not an exact science. Enrollment depends on arbitrary family transitions, sale of homes, age of students, family choice of school, or other factors that are out of the District’s control. Enrollment is very hard to predict and even more difficult due to contractual promises limiting class size. Adopting these changes to Board Policy AR 5117 will assist the administrators as they deliberate over the decision to accept or deny Interdistrict Transfer applications.

Proposal to Add Guidelines to Board Policy AR 5117 The Superintendent shall encourage the placement of Interdistrict Transfers into classrooms, grade levels, or schools where enrollment is below accepted levels using the following criteria as implementation guidelines:

1. Interdistrict attendance applications may be submitted as early as February 1st of each year preceding the school year for which the transfer is requested.

2. Parents will be notified if the student application has been accepted by May 15th. All other applications not accepted as of May 15th will be placed on a waiting list pending space availability. IDTs based on maximizing grade level must be awarded on a “random and unbiased” basis using the date of the application as the criteria for acceptance. A random drawing may be necessary in the case of two applications bearing the same date.

3. Governing Board allows the Superintendent to accept any number of IDT students in any grade level as long as that number does not exceed the current number of students allowed per classroom by the Education Code or by the current agreement with the Association of Coronado Teachers (ACT).

JPF

4. Once a student is admitted to the District, the District may not deny him/her continued attendance at any school because of overcrowded facilities.

5. The Superintendent shall determine the approval of an IDT application using the following criteria in this specific order:

a. By student living with parents employed in the CUSD at least 10 hours per week according to Governing Board policy AR 5111.12

b. By student who already has a sibling enrolled in the CUSD

c. By student living with parents employed within the District boundaries

d. By grade level as needed to maximize enrollment

e. By other criteria as identified by CA Ed Code or by Governing Board policy AR 5117

Coronado USD Board Policy Interdistrict Attendance- BP 5117 The Governing Board recognizes that parents/guardians of students who reside in one district may, for a variety of reasons, choose to enroll their child in a school in another district. Interdistrict Attendance Permits The Board may enter into an agreement with any other school district, for a term not to exceed five school years, for the interdistrict attendance of students who are residents of the districts. (Education Code 46600) The agreement shall specify the terms and conditions under which interdistrict attendance shall be permitted or denied. It also may contain standards agreed to by both districts for reapplication and/or revocation of the student's permit. (Education Code 46600) Upon receiving a permit for transfer into the district that has been approved by the student's district of residence, or upon receiving a written request from the parent/guardian of a district student who wishes to enroll in another district, the Superintendent or designee shall review the request and may approve or deny the permit subject to the terms and conditions of the interdistrict attendance agreement. Limits on Student Transfers Out of the District to a School District of Choice The Superintendent or designee may limit the number of student transfers out of the district to a school district of choice based on the percentages of average daily attendance specified in Education Code 48307. In addition, transfers out of the district may be limited during a fiscal year when the County Superintendent of Schools has given the district a negative budget certification or when the County Superintendent has determined that the district will not meet the state's standards and criteria for fiscal stability in the subsequent fiscal year exclusively as a result of student transfers from this district to a school district of choice. (Education Code 48307)

Interdistrict Attendance- AR 5117 Interdistrict Attendance Permits In accordance with an agreement between the Governing Board and the board of another district, a permit authorizing a student's attendance outside his/her district of residence may be issued upon approval of both the district of residence and the district of proposed attendance. The Superintendent or designee may approve an interdistrict attendance permit for a student for any of the following reasons when stipulated in the agreement:

1. When the student has been determined by staff of either the district of residence or district of proposed attendance to be a victim of an act of bullying as defined in Education Code 48900(r). Such a student shall be given priority for interdistrict attendance under any existing interdistrict attendance agreement or, in the absence of an agreement, shall be given consideration for the creation of a new permit. (Education Code 46600)

2. To meet the child care needs of the student. Such a student may be allowed to continue to attend district schools only as long as he/she continues to use a child care provider within district boundaries.

3. To meet the student's special mental or physical health needs as certified by a physician, school psychologist, or other appropriate school personnel.

4. When the student has a sibling attending school in the receiving district, to avoid splitting the family's attendance.

5. To allow the student to complete a school year when his/her parents/guardians have moved out of the district during that year.

6. To allow the student to remain with a class graduating that year from an elementary, middle, or senior high school.

7. To allow a high school senior to attend the same school he/she attended as a junior, even if his/her family moved out of the district during the junior year.

8. When the parent/guardian provides written evidence that the family will be moving into the district in the immediate future and would like the student to start the year in the district.

9. When the student will be living out of the district for one year or less. 10. When recommended by the school attendance review board or by county child welfare,

probation, or social service agency staff in documented cases of serious home or community problems which make it inadvisable for the student to attend the school of residence.

11. When there is valid interest in a particular educational program not offered in the district of residence.

12. To provide a change in school environment for reasons of personal and social adjustment. The Superintendent or designee may deny initial requests for interdistrict attendance permits due to limited district resources, overcrowding of school facilities at the relevant grade level, or other considerations that are not arbitrary. However, once a student is admitted, the district may not deny him/her continued attendance because of overcrowded facilities at the relevant grade level. Within 30 days of a request for an interdistrict permit, the Superintendent or designee shall notify the parents/guardians of a student who is denied interdistrict attendance regarding the process for appeal to the County Board of Education as specified in Education Code 46601. (Education Code 46601)

of 70

Pending a decision by the two districts or an appeal by the County Board, the Superintendent or designee may provisionally admit a student who resides in another district for a period not to exceed two school months. (Education Code 46603) Students who are under consideration for expulsion or who have been expelled may not appeal interdistrict attendance denials or decisions while expulsion proceedings are pending or during the term of the expulsion. (Education Code 46601) Once a student is admitted to a school on the basis of an interdistrict attendance permit, he/she shall not be required to reapply for an interdistrict transfer and shall be allowed to continue to attend the school in which he/she is enrolled, unless reapplication standards are otherwise specified in the interdistrict attendance agreement. Existing interdistrict attendance permits shall not be rescinded for students entering grade 11 or 12 in the subsequent school year. (Education Code 46600)

HIGHLIGHTED PORTION BELOW DENOTES POLICY TO BE ADDED

Local Implementation Guidelines The Superintendent shall encourage the placement of Interdistrict Transfers (IDTs) into classrooms, grade levels, or schools where enrollment is below accepted levels using the following criteria as implementation guidelines:

1. Interdistrict attendance applications may be submitted as early as February 1st of each year preceding the school year for which the transfer is requested.

2. Parents will be notified if the student application has been accepted by May 15th. All other applications not accepted as of May 15th will be placed on a waiting list pending space availability. IDTs based on maximizing grade level must be awarded on a “random and unbiased” basis using the date of the application as the criteria for acceptance. A random drawing may be necessary in the case of two applications bearing the same date.

3. Governing Board allows the Superintendent to accept any number of IDT students in any grade level as long as that number does not exceed the current number of students allowed per classroom by the Education Code or by the current agreement with the Association of Coronado Teachers (ACT).

4. Once a student is admitted to the district, the district may not deny him/her continued attendance at any school because of overcrowded facilities.

Residency Based On Parent/Guardian Employment AR 5111.12 The Governing Board finds that allowing the children of persons employed by the district to attend district schools is beneficial to the district for a variety of reasons, including, but not limited to, allowing the district to recruit and hire desirable employees and strengthening the relationship between employees and the district. For that reason, district residency status shall be granted to a student if at least one parent/guardian is physically employed within district boundaries by the district for at least 10 hours during the school week. Students enrolled in the district on the basis that at least one parent/guardian is physically employed within district boundaries by the district shall not be required to reapply for enrollment in subsequent school years. Such students may continue to attend school in the district through the highest grade provided by the district, if the parent/guardian so chooses and if at least one of the student's parents/guardians continues to be employed by the district , subject to the restrictions specified in law related to excess costs and negative impact on desegregation plans. (Education Code 48204) The district may require verification that at least one parent/guardian is physically employed within the boundaries of the district annually, periodically, or at such other times as the district determines that such verification is warranted. Student Placement Upon Enrollment The district shall place students admitted based on parent/guardian employment within the district at a site or in a class in which there is available space, which may result in the student not being placed in the parent/guardian's choice of school or class. For students who are enrolled pursuant to this Regulation during elementary school, the district school in which the student is initially enrolled shall be deemed the student's elementary school of residence for district purposes. Nothing in this section shall limit the right of any student to apply for intradistrict transfer on the same terms as any other student of the district; however, the school of residency shall remain the school as identified herein. District Students Transferring to Other Districts Based on Parent/Guardian Employment When a student's parent/guardian requests that the student be transferred to another district based on the parent/guardian's physical employment within that other district, the district may deny the request if the percentage of district students admitted to other districts on the basis of parent/guardian employment exceeds the limits prescribed in Education Code 48204. A transfer may also be denied if the district determines that the transfer would negatively impact a court-ordered or voluntary desegregation plan. (Education Code 48204) Regulation approved August 19, 2010 and revised November 17, 2011

6.3 Presentation Regarding a Potential Charter Petition from Catapult Academy Charter School (Information)

Background Information: Recently a potential charter petitioner, Catapult Academy, approached Coronado Unified School District (CUSD) administration about petitioning for a new charter approval. This is a nationally recognized charter school organization that would market mostly to students outside of the CUSD boundaries. The target population for Catapult Academy is students who are either likely candidates to drop out of high school, or those who have already done so. Catapult Academy would create a non-profit corporation to operate the school. There would be little to no financial risk for CUSD, and the charter school actually brings the promise of financial rewards from the oversight and facilities fees that CUSD would charge if the new petition is approved. If a charter petition is presented, California Education Code Sections 47605 through 47607 et. seq. delineate the requirements for a school district to utilize in evaluating the petition.

Report: The Governing Board will hear an information presentation from Matt Given, Chief

Development Officer of Catapult Academy, describing the educational foundation of their school system and the financial opportunity for the Coronado Unified School District.

Financial Impact: There is no financial impact from tonight’s presentation.

7.3 Discussion to Consider Appointing Two Board Members to Meet with Coronado City Council Members Regarding a Variety of Subjects of Interest

The Board will consider appointing two Board members to a Board subcommittee (ad hoc) who will have the responsibility for communicating with the Coronado City Council. These Board members may meet informally or formally with Councilmembers at irregular times to be scheduled in advance. The subject matter of these meetings will vary according to the desire of the members attending. This is not intended to be a standing committee and is therefore not subject to the Brown Act per GC 54952 and BP 9130.

Committee Meetings

Unless otherwise exempted by law, Board-created committees shall provide public notice of

their meetings and conduct meetings in accordance with Government Code 54950-54963

(the Brown Act).

However, Board subcommittees composed solely of less than a quorum of the members of

the Board are not subject to open meeting laws unless they are standing committees.

Standing committees of the Board, irrespective of membership, are those that have a

continuing subject matter jurisdiction or a meeting schedule established by action of the

Board. (Government Code 54952)

AGENDA—February 19, 2015 7.0 INSTRUCTIONAL PROGRAMS & STUDENT ACTIVITIES

7.4 Learning Report: Learning and Instruction, including: (1) English Language Arts Update and (2) Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM) Update

1) English Language Arts

Background Information: English Language Arts (ELA) standards for California are a part of the Common Core State Standards (CCSS), adopted by the State Board of Education and CUSD. These rigorous standards are the foundation for all literacy in grades K-12 encompassing standards for speaking, listening, reading, and writing. In addition, these standards address literacy for grades 6-12 in science, history/social science, and technical subjects. The ELA standards are (1) based on research and evidence, (2) aligned with college and work expectations, (3) rigorous, and (4) internationally benchmarked. Just as students must learn to read, write, speak, listen, and use language effectively in a variety of content areas, so too must the ELA standards specify the literacy skills and understandings required for college and career readiness in multiple disciplines. Literacy standards for grade 6 and above are based on the expectation that teachers of ELA, history/social studies, science, and technical subjects use their expertise to help students meet the particular challenges of reading, writing, speaking, listening, and language in those content areas. It is important to note that the grades 6–12 literacy standards in history/social studies, science, and technical subjects are not meant to replace content standards in those areas but rather to supplement them.

The ELA standards lay out a vision of what it means to be a literate person in the twenty-first century. The skills and understandings students are expected to demonstrate have wide application outside the classroom or workplace. Students who meet the ELA standards will be able to:

undertake the close, attentive reading that is at the heart of understanding and enjoying complex works of literature

perform the critical reading necessary to pick carefully through the staggering amount of information available today in print and digitally

seek thoughtful engagement with high-quality literary and informational texts that builds knowledge, enlarges experience, and broadens worldviews.

demonstrate cogent reasoning and use evidence in a way that is essential to both private deliberation and responsible citizenship.

Transition to the CCSS ELA standards began during the 2011-12 school year for CUSD and continues for teachers, including alignment to the CA Preschool Foundations. In 2014, a 1,300 page Framework for English Language Arts and English Language Development (ELD) was adopted, now the foundational document for all ELA/ELD instruction in CA schools.

of 70

Report: The following report provides representative examples and evidence of CUSD’s transition to the CCSS ELA standards for CUSD based on the shifts inherent in these standards. Reading The ELA standards are significantly more rigorous than the previous California Standards. Expectations for reading complex text in all grades, especially in K-8, have increased by approximately one grade level. This year, CUSD addressed the increase rigor by establishing new targets for K-8 students and is tracking progress through a variety of trimesterly benchmark assessments in grades K-8 including Read Well (K-2), Developmental Reading Assessment (grades 2-5), and MAP (grades 2-8). Each trimester, data is shared by all elementary teachers, including Special Education, Academic Support and Enrichment, and English Language Development teachers in order to ensure appropriate supports for all students. Additionally, all grade 5 data is shared with Coronado Middle School, and grade 8 data is shared with Coronado High School to ensure correct services and placements, especially for students who are not yet meeting expectations for reading for grades 9-12. The Coronado High School English department has led the Common Core transition for CHS, setting new mastery-based expectations and feedback practices for students, and ensuring a literature and non-fiction text are a part of the curriculum. All 6-12 departments continue to work to ensure that literacy is integrated into instruction as it relates to a specific content area.

Distribution of Literary and Informational Reading By Grade in CCSS ELA Standards

Grade Percent of Literary Reading Percent of Informational Reading 4 50% 50% 8 45% 55% 12 30% 70%

CUSD instruction for all grades aligns with this distribution of literacy and informational reading and has been so for several years. As reading is a primary vehicle for all learning, CUSD seeks to ensure that all students are proficient readers based on new expectations by grade 3. End of year data for the 2014-15 school year will be baseline data for these new reading benchmarks and will be reported to the Governing Board in the fall. Writing The three genres for writing in grades K-12 are identical, ensuring shared and well-articulated instruction. They are: writing to persuade (opinion and argument), writing to explain (informational writing); and writing to convey experience (narrative).

The newest genre to grades K-3 is writing to persuade, which includes a range of text-types including response to literature. One of the current strategies that has great impact on student achievement in writing is the practice by all CUSD teachers and administrators of collectively examining student writing samples. Through the lens of the new standards, teachers have sorted student work in strong, typical, and struggling categories, have examined the qualities of each category, and use that information to strengthen instruction across the curriculum. This practice has been a focus for CUSD professional development this year.

of 70

This fall, students in grades 3, 7, and 10 participated in the second county-wide ELA Performance Task, facilitated by San Diego County Office of Education. The SDCOE ELA Performance Task provides students an opportunity to experience this type of assessment, especially important in preparing for spring 2015 Smarter Balanced Assessment. Results of the SDCOE Performance Task will be forthcoming.

Distribution of Communicative Purposed by Grade in CCSS ELA Standards Grade To Persuade

(Opinion and Argument) To Explain

(Informational Writing) To Convey Experience

(Narrative) 4 30% 35% 35% 8 35% 35% 30% 12 40% 40% 20%

An Integrated Model of Literacy (Reading, Writing, Speaking, and Listening) For the past two years, all K-5 students have received instruction that links reading, writing, speaking, listening, and thinking through Seminars in Critical Literacy units of instruction. Inherent in K-12 continuum of ELA standards are expectations to ensure that students are able to build conceptual understanding through text, and that they critique as well as comprehend, instead of the focus on recall in the previous California standards. Building conceptual understanding through text is highly rigorous work for both students and teachers as these processes of thinking, reading, writing, and communicating are closely intertwined and lead students from concrete to abstract thinking. CCSS Implementation Funds were used to purchase these units of instruction and to provide ongoing professional development for all K-5 teachers during the 2013-14 and 2014-15 school years. Though, CCSS Implementation Funds expire June 2015, teachers have the training, skills, and pedagogy to continue this work.

Similarly, science instruction for grade 7 students and history instruction for grade 8 students incorporate the Socratic seminar. Socratic seminars are named for their embodiment of Socrates’ belief in the power of asking questions, prize inquiry over information and discussion over debate. Socratic seminars acknowledge the highly social nature of learning and provide a venue for formal discussion, based on text, in which the leader asks open-ended questions. Within the context of the discussion, students listen closely to the comments of others, thinking critically for themselves, and articulate their own thoughts and their responses to the thoughts of others. They learn to work cooperatively and to question intelligently and civilly. Socratic seminars in middle school grades meet all CCSS standards for reading, writing, speaking, and listening, and well prepare students for the rigorous content which is a part of all Coronado High School courses.

Next Steps for CUSD As we continue to transition fully to the CCSS ELA standards, future work will involve:

professional development for all CUSD educators to build understanding of the new ELA/ELD Framework for all areas of literacy and the share responsibility of literacy. The new CA ELA/ELD Framework was approved in late fall 2014 and is regarded as the foundational guide for all ELA instruction.

professional development relating to English Language Development to support English Learners and students who are Reclassified as Fluent English Proficient Curriculum aligned to the new ELA/ELD standards is slated to be approved by the State Board of Education around 2016, with adoptions potentially available in 2017-18.

Financial Impact Ongoing cost of supplemental ELA materials for all grades and professional development.

1) STEAM

The curricular areas of science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics (STEAM) continue to be significant components of instruction across CUSD. Largely funded by the Coronado Schools Foundation, these pathway opportunities for all students assist in developing graduates who are ready for college and career, and provide real-life experiences necessary in providing a 21st century, relevant education. Some 2014-15 STEAM opportunities were impacted negatively due to budget reductions; most of these reductions resulted reduced sections for students or the elimination of a dedicated staff member, but not an elimination of STEAM areas altogether. For example, at Village Elementary School, all classroom teachers ensure Visual and Performing Arts are incorporated into instruction, though there is no longer a dedicated visual arts specialist on staff. At Silver Strand Elementary, though there is no longer a dedicated computer lab teacher, all classroom teachers incorporate technology into instruction, aided greatly by the Technology Resource technician. Through our generous partner, CSF, and some other resources available to each site—including many volunteer hours—CUSD students are taking advantage of the following STEAM opportunities in 2014-15 (the bold font indicates full or partial funding by Coronado Schools Foundation):

AGENDA – February 19, 2015 7.0 PERSONNEL

7.5 Human Resources Report

Education Code 44949 requires that no later than March 15 the Governing Board and affected certificated employees shall be given written notice that particular kinds of service will not be required in the coming year. As is evident in Dr. Felix’ State of the District presentation, LCFF has guaranteed that Coronado Unified School District (CUSD) will be unable to fund its current staffing levels unless supplemental funds are available. At this time, two current funding sources are in question for the 15-16 school year: Adult Education and Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA). To ensure that CUSD can meet its financial obligations in 15-16, at the March 5, 2015 Governing Board meeting, staff will bring forward recommendations to reduce services and lay-off certificated staff in these two areas. If sufficient funds, in these areas, are guaranteed prior to the March 5th meeting, reduction in service and lay-offs will not be recommended.

AGENDA – February 19, 2015 7.0 BUSINESS AND FISCAL MANAGEMENT

7.6 Business Services Report

Background Information: Business Services is responsible for the fiscal health and business operations of the District. Business operations include Financial Accounting, Financial Management, Payroll, Business Information Systems, Facilities, Maintenance and Operations, Transportation and Child Nutrition Services. Report: A. The Governor’s 2015-16 State Budget proposal will bring better financial news, if

enacted, to the Coronado Unified School District. Several caveats should be noted: a. Given the Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF), Coronado Unified will

receive only 70% of the statewide average increase per ADA.

b. Coronado Unified will need to use all of the Governor’s budgeted LCFF increase, and an additional $300,000 to $400,000, to close its structural deficit for the 2015-16 year. Given that, the District will likely continue have a Qualified certification at the Second Interim budget report.

c. Even with projected increases, layoff notices will be presented at the March 5, 2015 Board of Trustees meeting. These are due to:

i. Adult Education funding ending, unless the Governor’s 2015-16 budget proposal is enacted.

ii. The Department of Defense Operation STEPS grant ending, unless Coronado Unified is awarded a third grant cycle.

iii. School sites making position adjustments due to enrollment and registration changes from 2014-15 levels.

B. The next financial report will be the 2014-15 Second Interim Report, to be presented at the March 5, 2015 Board meeting.

Financial Impact: There is no impact to the general fund as a result of this report.
