Board of Education Report

333 South Beaudry Ave,Los Angeles, CA 90017

File #: Rep-443-13/14, Version: 1

APPROVAL OF PROCUREMENT ACTIONS

Action Proposed:

Staff proposes that the Board of Education (Board) ratify the contract actions taken by the ProcurementServices Division within delegated authority as listed in Attachment “A” including the approval of award ofProfessional Service Contracts not exceeding $250,000: New Contracts and Amendments; Low Value -Decentralized Purchase Orders; Goods and General Services Contracts: Purchase Orders, Low Value -Decentralized Purchase Orders; District Credit Card Transactions; Rental of Facilities; Travel/ConferenceAttendance; General Stores Distribution Center; and Book/Instructional Material Purchase Orders; andapprove the Professional Service Contracts (exceeding $250,000): New Contracts; Goods and GeneralServices Contracts (exceeding $250,000): New Contracts; listed in Attachment “B.”

Background:

Procurement Services staff prepares monthly reports for contract actions necessary for the execution of theprojects approved by the Board for the educational and operational requirements of the District in accordancewith Board delegated authority to the Superintendent.

Expected Outcomes:

Approval of these items will allow the goods and services provided by these contracts furnishing theequipment, supplies, or services to the Los Angeles Unified School District that support Board policies andgoals.

Board Options and Consequences:

The Board can approve all actions presented, or postpone selected actions pending receipt of additionalinformation. Non-ratification of actions awarded under delegated authority in Attachment “A” will result inimmediate unavailability of products or discontinuance of services, or both. While non-ratification may belegally defendable, it would likely result in costly litigation over discontinued payments or if the Districtattempts to reclaim payments made to a vendor. District costs will likely increase as fewer vendors competefor future procurements. Postponement of actions presented for approval in Attachment “B” will delay contractaward or delivery dates.

Policy Implications:

This action does not change District policy and conforms to California Education Code section 17604 thatpermits the Board of Education to delegate authority for Procurement Services (Board Report #200-12/13),which the Board exercised on April 16, 2013.

Office of Curriculum and Instruction INFORMATIVE

TO: Members, Board of Education DATE: May 14, 2014Dr. John E. Deasy, Superintendent of Schools

FROM: Susan Tandberg, Ed.D.Director, K-12 Instruction

SUBJECT: PUBLIC CONSULTING GROUP CONTRACT NO.: 4400002758 CONTRACT AMOUNT: $45,000REQUEST FOR AUTHORIZATION

This contractor will provide online professional development through instructional modules that focus on the Common Core mathematics standards. This is designed to support teachers in a deeper understanding of the conceptual underpinnings of the math standards with the expectation that this will support math instruction in our schools.

Why is this necessary?This is a contract for teacher online professional development with a specific focus on improving math content knowledge for elementary and secondary teachers. This contract is necessary because the Common Core State Standards require teachers to have a deep understanding of the conceptual underpinnings of the math concepts in order to effectively teach math to mastery.

Why do we need to do this now?We need this now because we are fully implementing the Common Core State Standards in mathematics. These standards call for teachers to teach math to a deeper level (fewer standards are in each grade level) requiring different knowledge levels for some teachers.

What would happen if this were not approved?Teachers may continue to teach content that is no longer required for a specific grade level and may not have the skill sets to teach conceptually.

What are the terms of the proposed agreement?The District will receive 300 online subscriptions to provide to teachers. Teachers will be able to access all online courses provided by Public Consulting Group for a 1-year period. The courses will be aligned with professional development to provide for modeling of the content the teachers have learned.

If you have any questions or require additional information, please contact me at [email protected] or at (213) 241-5333.

Intensive Support and Intervention Division

INFORMATIVETO: Members, Board of Education DATE: March 10, 2014

Dr. John E. Deasy, Superintendent of Schools

FROM: Monique N. EppsDirector, Division of Intensive Support and Intervention

SUBJECT: UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA CONTRACT NO.: 4400002678 CONTRACT AMOUNT: $141,706 REQUEST FOR RATIFICATION FOR AFTER THE FACT CONTRACT

In October 2010, the Los Angeles Unified School District received an Investing in Innovation (i3) grant from the US Department of Education to fund the implementation of the Public School Choice (PSC) process. The PSC process focuses on enhancing the distinctive features of an open competition. Implemented for the first time in August 2009, the PSC process allowed teams of internal and external stakeholders to submit competitive proposals to turn around the district's lowest performing "focus" schools (selected by LAUSD administrators based on a diverse set of performance indicators) and to operate newly constructed "relief" schools designated to ease overcrowding (built using funding from state and local bonds). The district's Theory of Change behind PSC was that through rigorous screening of school plans, competition, intensive supports, district accountability, appropriate autonomies, and community and parent involvement, a range of school providers would be able to turn around low-performing schools and increase student achievement. The ultimate goal of this reform was to build a diverse portfolio of high-performing schools tailored to and supported by the local community.

The original terms of the i3 grant were from October 1, 2010 through September 30, 2013; however, in September 2013, LAUSD requested and received a no-cost extension of the grant from the US Department of Education to continue the work through September 30, 2014.

Why is this necessary? Why do we need to do this now?Per the US Department of Education, all i3 projects are required to conduct an independent evaluation in order to expand the understanding of what works in education, and help answer questions about for whom and in what contexts specific interventions are most effective.

Why is this contract an after the fact?At the time we received the no-cost extension of the i3 grant from the US Department of Education, our office notified Budget Services and Accounting, but did not know that we were also required to contact Procurement Services. Our budget showed that the money was still encumbered, not triggering that we were out-of-compliance with District policy regarding this contract. When it was brought to our attention that we needed to create a new contract with USC,

27

0123456789

Members, Board of Education -2- March 10, 2014Dr. John E. Deasy, Superintendent

we started the ball rolling in completing the process only to run into a technical glitch. The technical issue was eventually rectified, monies were released and the procurement request continued moving through the system.

We did not ask USC to stop they work they’d been doing for the past three years while we worked through this problem on our end because we did not want to interrupt or compromise the evaluation of the process, which is a requirement of the US Department of Education.

What would happen if this were not approved?Non-approval would interrupt the evaluation that USC has conducted over the previous three years, would leave us out-of-compliance with the terms and conditions of receiving an i3 grant, and could possibly result in LAUSD having to repay the US Department of Education the funds received through the i3 grant.

What are the terms of the proposed agreement?The contract is through September 30, 2014 and expenses will be covered by a portion of the remaining i3 grant funds.

Division of Adult and Career Education



FROM: Donna BrashearExecutive Director, Division of Adult and Career Education

SUBJECT: N. HARRIS COMUPTER CORPORATION CONTRACT NO.: 4400002759 CONTRACT AMOUNT: $404,486 REQUEST FOR APPROVAL OF THE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES CONTRACT FOR THE ADULT STUDENT INFORMATION SYSTEM

The Division of Adult and Career Education is requesting Board approval of the professional services contract needed to support and maintain the Adult Student Information System for the Division of Adult and Career Education.

Why is this necessary?The Adult Student Information System captures student information and reporting and serves as a) a budget planning tool for administrators in the assignment and allocation of teacher hours; b) a class management tool in assessing the success and performance of courses; and c) a student performance tool to track student competencies required to successfully complete a course. Other functionalities include tracking of attendance hours in work experience related activities, and student surveys. These Adult Student Information System core functionalities are vital for the uninterrupted collection of student data and federal and state reporting requirements and are not available in the K-12 student information system.

N. Harris Computer Corporation provides software support, services and maintenance for the Adult Student Information System. The services are critical to ensure proper functioning of the system of record for the Division of Adult and Career Education. Additionally, all currently existing Adult Student Information System interfaces are being adapted to function with MiSIS.

Why do we need to do this now?The current contract with the vendor will expire on June 30, 2014. The Adult Student Information System serves as the system of record for student information and enables the instructional operations for the Division of Adult and Career Education.

31

0123456789


What would happen if this were not approved?Yes vote means that the operating system of record for the Division of Adult and Career Education continues to be supported and maintained to enable instructional operations and meet State and Federal reporting requirements. No vote means that system errors and defects will be unresolved and the Division of Adult and Career Education will not have an operational student information system to support the reporting needs and instructional operations.

What are the terms of the proposed agreement?This agreement is a one-year term for software support, services and maintenance with a not-to-exceed contract amount of $404,486. The fixed hourly rate is $108 per hour for hourly services, and payment is contingent upon acceptance and approval by the Executive Director, Division of Adult and Career Education.

Office of Curriculum and Instructional SupportOffice of Data and Accountability



FROM: Gerardo LoeraExecutive Director, Office of Curriculum and Instructional Support

Cynthia Lim Executive Director, Office of Data and Accountability

SUBJECT: AWARDED CONTRACTOR NAMES: Amplify and CTB/McGraw-HillCONTRACT NO.: 4400002912 (Amplify)CONTRACT AMOUNT: $14,186,706.00

CONTRACT NO.: 4400002911 (CTB/McGraw-Hill)CONTRACT AMOUNT: $4,350,000.00RECOMMENDATION TO AWARD, REQUEST FOR AUTHORIZATION, AMENDMENT, ETC

The Office of Data and Accountability and Office of Curriculum, Instruction, and School Support recommend the awarding of contracts between the District and Amplify and CTB/McGraw Hill to provide assessments as part of the District’s comprehensive assessment program. These assessments are in alignment with the goals in the District’s Local Control Accountability Plan (LCAP) regarding student achievement and the English proficiency of English Learners. Both contracts are for a three year period.

Why is this necessary?The District’s Local Control Accountability Plan, Core Waiver Plan, Local Educational Agency Plan and EL Master Plan all require accountabilities for student achievement in literacy and language. Literacy assessments are used to gather evidence about learning progress, informinstruction, provide timely intervention and guide teachers in effective instructional grouping and decision making. The literacy assessments help teachers identify the gap between current learning and the expected learning desired in terms of academic standards and provides timely feedback to teachers.

The monitoring of reading growth for students with disabilities is required by the Modified Consent Decree. In addition, State Education Code Section 313-313.5 on English Learner Reclassification along with the agreement with the Office of Civil Rights and LAUSD’s English Learner Master Plan requires the monitoring of Literacy and English language development for English learners and the provision of a valid assessment for determining reclassification in grades K-12.


36

0123456789

Member, Board of Education -2- May 9, 2014Dr. John E. Deasy, Superintendent

Why do we need to do this now?The state is transitioning to new assessments aligned to the Common Core State Standards as part of the Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium (SBAC). Interim and summative assessments in English Language Arts and Mathematics will be provided by the state for grades 3-8 and grade 11. However, there are no state interim or summative assessments for students in grades K-2. As we transition to the Common Core State Standards, we need assessments and assessment materials for literacy and language development as well as math assessments to determine placement. Additionally, the interim and summative SBAC assessments may not meet the requirements for the Basic English Test used to reclassify English Learners in grades K-12 and does not provide an assessment of English language development. Assessments for the new school year cannot begin until these contracts are approved.

What would happen if this were not approved?These assessments provide teachers and administrators with tools to assist in their instructional decision-making and ensure that student learning is consistently monitored. If the contracts are not approved, LAUSD will have no assessments for students in K-2, no assessments for foundational reading skills in grades K-5, no assessments used to meet the Ed Code requirements to reclassify English Learner in grades K-12, no interim measures to determine English language development and no assessments to support math placement and intervention. This contract will cover assessments in grades K-5 and we will need to determine an additional assessment for reclassification in grades 6-9 and 11th grade. Neither the District nor teachers would have consistent formative measures of student foundational reading skills, language development and math assessments. The District would also not have an assessment for the purposes of reclassification in grades K-12.

What are the terms of the proposed agreement?There are three (3) aspects to the comprehensive assessment system through these contracts: foundational reading assessments, language development assessments, and math assessments.

Foundational Reading assessments for grades K-5 provided by Amplify. These assessments are used to inform instruction and intervention in literacy. Similarly the assessments will be in Spanish for students who are enrolled in Dual and Bilingual programs. The results of these assessments will be used to support all students to ensure that they receive targeted intervention. These assessments will also support students with disabilities and satisfy one of the reclassification measures needed for English learners in grades K-5. There will be a need to identify an additional assessments for grades 6-9 and 11.

Language development assessments for English Learners and Standard English Learners provided by CTB/McGraw-Hill. These assessments will be used to monitor Academic Language Development and will assist teachers in designing targeted language proficiency instruction in academic context. Language scores will provide information on the progress of Academic English proficiency.

Math assessments for Grade 6 and 8th grade Algebra end of course hosted on Amplify’s platform. These assessments are used to support instruction and intervention for students in grades 6 and Algebra 1 to provide a uniform measurement of success. The results will also be used to support placement and interventions for students as they matriculate to the next level.

Funding will come from General Fund, Common Core Implementation and Coordinated Early Intervention Services funds.

If you have any questions or require additional information, please contact Gerardo Loera at 213-241-5333 or Cynthia Lim at 213-241-2460.

SUBJECT: CONTRACTOR: DR. DAVID ROSTETTER CONTRACT NO.: 4400002993 CONTRACT AMOUNT: $880,000

CONTRACT FOR THE OPERATION OF THE CHANDA SMITH

MODIFIED CONSENT DECREE OFFICE OF THE INDEPENDENT MONITOR (DR. DAVID ROSTETTER, REPLACEMENT INDEPENDENT MONITOR)

Introduction

The purpose of this correspondence is to provide a summary review of the District’s obligations under the Chanda Smith Modified Consent Decree (“MCD”) pertaining to the continued operation of the Office of the Independent Monitor (“OIM”). It also provides an explanation of the OIM contract actions that are required for implementation of the MCD in the 2014-2015school year. The total contract values listed above include the initial period of the contract which is the 2014-2015 school year and is inclusive of three option years (2015-2016, 2016-2017 and 2017-2018).

Due to the untimely passing on May 2, 2014 of Mr. Frederick J. Weintraub, the dedicated, highly effective and respected Chanda Smith Modified Consent Decree (“MCD”) Independent Monitor since 2005, the District and MCD Plaintiffs’ Counsel have selected and mutually agreed upon a replacement Independent Monitor. In accordance with Section 2 of the MCD the District and MCD Plaintiffs’ Counsel have stipulated that Dr. David Rostetter shall be the replacement Independent Monitor while the MCD is in effect and until termination of the MCD. Dr. Rostetter is the former head of the branch of the United States Department of Education responsible for compliance with IDEA. He has also previously served in the following capacities: (1) as a monitor and master in several special education court orders; (2) as a consultant to state education agencies and local education agencies; and (3) as an expert witness in numerous court cases.

Why is this necessary?The MCD requires the District to compensate the Federal Court-appointed Independent Monitor for his services and reimburse him for expenses incurred in the fulfillment of his duties under the MCD. These expenses include office expenses and salaries for the OIM, consultant services, costs of studies and surveys, and other MCD related expenses. The MCD provides that in the

39

0123456789


event the Independent Monitor is unable to carry out his duties under the MCD, a replacement Independent Monitor shall be selected.

Why do we need to do this now?To disengage from the MCD, the District is required to meet 19 performance outcomes set forth in the MCD in addition to other requirements. The District has met, and has disengaged from, 17of the required outcomes. Since there are two Outcomes that have not been met, all outcomes will not be achieved by June 30, 2014 requiring MCD implementation and oversight by the Independent Monitor to continue into the 2014-2015 school year.

Since MCD implementation will continue into the 2014-2015 school year, the District is required to take the necessary actions to fund the operations of the OIM, which includes compensating an Independent Monitor. To this end, the following items will be submitted to the Board for approval:

1. A contract with the replacement Independent Monitor, Dr. David Rostetter, for the 2014-2015 school year in the amount of $220,000. The requested contract includes three one-year extension options at $220,000 per year for a total contract value of $880,000.

After these actions are complete, the District will have provided the necessary resources for the OIM for the 2014-2015 school year in fulfillment of its obligations under the MCD. It is expected that of the three one-year extension options, only 1-2 of the option year extensions will be exercised as a result of the District’s continued performance on the remaining outcomes and satisfaction of the other MCD requirements.

What would happen if this were not approved?If the Board does not approve the contracts necessary to fund the operations of the OIM, the District will be in violation of the MCD. This will result in the Federal District Court finding the District in contempt for violating the terms of the MCD by its failure to comply with the compensation requirements set forth in the MCD.

What are the terms of the proposed agreement?The MCD requires the appointment of an Independent Monitor to monitor the District’s performance to ensure the obligations under the terms of the MCD are met and that the District compensate the Independent Monitor for his services in accordance with a professional services agreement. The District is required to contract with Dr. Rostetter to provide for his services for the 2014-2015 school year which are the identical terms under which Mr. Weintraub served as the Independent Monitor. Based on the average of 60 hours per month at the rate of $300 per hour, the total not-to-exceed amount of the 2014-2015 school year contract will be set at $220,000 and is being submitted to the Board for approval with the three one-year extension options discussed above.

40

0123456789


The MCD authorizes the Independent Monitor to retain such consultants, experts and other personnel as may be reasonably required by him to assist in his duties under the MCD. Further, the MCD requires that the District reimburse the Independent Monitor for all expenses incurred by him in performing his duties under the MCD and compensate and reimburse the expenses of any consultants, experts and other personnel that he may reasonably require to assist him in performing his duties under the MCD.

INFORMATIVE

TO: Members, Board of Education DATE: May 16, 2014Dr. John E. Deasy, Superintendent

FROM: Dr. Donna E. Muncey, Chief of Intensive Support and Intervention Nader Delnavaz, Director, School Improvement Grant

SUBJECT: SCHOOL IMPROVEMENT GRANT (SIG) APPLICATION: EMO APPROVAL

The CDE approved the School Improvement Grant, Cohort 3, on May 8, 2014 with a total award to the District of approximately $48 million over the next three years beginning with the 2014-15 school year. Eight LAUSD schools were approved, out of a total of eleven schools statewide. Implementation is set to begin July 1. Six schools were approved as a Restart Model requiring an Educational Management Organization (EMO). EMO’s can be either a for-profit or non-profit organization that enters into an agreement through a contract or MOU to provide comprehensive support to the school. There are currently five schools in SIG cohort 1, and one in cohort 2, that are under the Restart model with an EMO.

Five of the cohort 3 Restart schools have a cost for the EMO partnership. One EMO (CSU Dominguez Hills) is working through an outside grant with LA High and is therefore no cost to the District. In order for the Restart schools to be able to implement their approved plan, the EMO selection and criteria will need to be approved by the Board.

The grant award amounts for all eight schools are as follows:

INTEROFFICE CORRESPONDENCE Los Angeles Unified School DistrictTransportation Services Division



FROM: Donald Wilkes, DirectorTransportation Services Division

SUBJECT: REQUEST FOR ALTERNATIVE FUEL VEHICLE CONTRACT AWARD TO BOB WONDRIES FORDCONTRACT NO.: 4400002735CONTRACT AMOUNT: NOT TO EXCEED $570,603.00

This purpose of this Informative is to request the contract award to Bob Wondries Ford for the purchase of alternative fuel administrative vehicles.

Why is this necessary?There is a need to replace administrative vehicles that have far exceeded their economic life cycle. Continued use of these vehicles has resulted in higher operational costs and diminished safety. This contract will allow for economical replacement of vehicles with the highest mileage and maintenance costs.

Why do we need to do this now?If vehicles with high mileage and maintenance costs remain in operation, they reach a point where they are beyond economical repair and are more costly to maintain than a newer alternative fuel vehicle.

What would happen if this were not approved?The Los Angeles Unified School District would continue to accrue high repair and operating costs resulting in a net loss, far exceeding the value of the vehicles.

What are the terms of the proposed agreement?The intent is to replace twenty-four (24) older model administrative vehicles with newer alternative fuel vehicles. Funds from the salvage of the older vehicles will be used to offset the cost of this purchase.

Should you have any questions or require additional information, please contact me at [email protected] (213) 580-2920.

TO: Members, Board of Education DATE: April 30, 2014Dr. John E. Deasy, Superintendent of Schools

FROM: Donald Wilkes, DirectorTransportation Services Division

SUBJECT: FOLLOW UP TO BOARD MEMBER INFORMATION REQUEST REGARDING ADMINSTRATIVE STAFF VEHICLE ASSIGNMENTS

(BOB WONDRIES FORD CONTRACT NO.: 4400002735)

This Informative is provided in response to a request for information regarding the rationale for assigning District vehicles to Senior Administrative Staff versus mileage reimbursement or monthly stipends for personal car usage.

DISCUSSION

Los Angeles Unified School District Board rule 1537 authorizes the Superintendent to approvethe issuance of a District vehicle for employees whose mileage reimbursement is likely to reach or exceed a specified threshold over the period of a school year.

Currently, District vehicles are provided for Senior Administrative staff that are on 24 hourresponse in support of students and schools. Whenever there is a Level One emergency or major incident at a school, District facility, or location involving District students and employees, Administrative staff will respond to provide support, oversight, and communications on behalf of the District. Level One responses include emergencies that could lead to school closures or mass assistance to fires, windstorms, earthquakes, student demonstrations, bus/vehicular accidents with injuries, police activity surrounding or inside a school or District site.

District Administrator vehicles are equipped with emergency two-way radios which allow direct communication with school staff, School Police, and District support personnel to attend to the immediate student and staff needs. These radios operate in a special frequency which allows for continued communication when conditions limit cellular or landline communications. District Administrator vehicles have special exempt license plates which are recognized as emergency responders at the scene of an emergency. Police and Fire Departments for Los Angeles City and County recognize vehicles with exempt license plates as emergency response personnel allowing for immediate access where personal vehicles would not be allowed.

If cost were the only consideration, mileage reimbursement would be less expensive when compared to the cost per mile of maintaining a fleet of vehicles (see chart below).

Members, Board of Education -2- April 30, 2014Dr. John E. Deasy, Superintendent

However, the aforementioned benefits of support and response to students and school communities far outweigh the cost.

Mileage reimbursement and stipends are options utilized within LAUSD for reimbursing employees who use their personal vehicles for work related business however, the use of personal vehicles does not provide staff with the communication and access to respond in a timely manner to emergency situations affecting the safety and security of LAUSD students, staff and personnel.

Please feel free to contact me at (213) 580-2920 should you require additional information.

Food Services DivisionINFORMATIVE

TO: Members, Board of Education DATE: May 21, 2014Dr. John E. Deasy, Superintendent of Schools

FROM: David BinkleDirector, Food Services Division

SUBJECT: Becnel Uniforms, Contract No: 4400002917CONTRACT AMOUNT: $687,000 Yearly

Food Services Division is requesting the Board of Education to approve the award of contract toBecnel Uniforms for the purchase of cafeteria uniforms and tailoring service. The cafeteria uniformswill be used by cafeteria employees throughout the District, including the Newman Nutrition Center.

Why is this necessary?Currently, there is no standardized employee uniform for the Food Services Cafeteria Manager, Senior Food Services Worker and the Food Services Worker. These employees are required to follow a dress code that meets the standard of safety and health code regulations but it is not uniform nor does the District provide it. Uniformity promotes safety at the school site as it clearly identifies to students, staff and the general public authorized cafeteria personnel and helps to develop a sense of trust and recognition among customers.

Why do we need to do this now?As our recent marketing efforts increase the awareness of our Café LA brand, it is essential to maintain the consistency of our brand throughout the cafeteria environment. The Food Services employees at school cafeterias are our front line communicators to the community, students and Administrators. Having uniforms for these employees will provide a professional appearance and will have an impact on the public’s perception of our school meal program, as well as, our employees’ attitudes about their job and opportunity for promotion.

What would happen if this were not approved?If the contract is not approved, our Food Service employees will continue to follow a dress code that meets the standard of safety and health code regulations but the dress code will not be uniform across the district and will not provide Food Services with the opportunity for standardization of identity, promotion and image enhancement.

What are the terms of the proposed agreement?The terms of the contract will be 36 months. Funding will be provided 100% by Cafeteria Funds.

If you have any questions, please contact Laura Benavidez, Deputy Director at [email protected] 213-241-2999.

Facilities Services Division Contract Actions

Action Proposed:Staff proposes that the Board of Education (Board) ratify the Facilities Services Division (FSD) contract

actions taken by Facilities Contracts under delegated authority as listed in Attachment “A” including: award of

advertised construction contracts; 17406 contracts; approval of change orders; completion of contracts; award

of informal contracts; rejection of bids; award of architectural and engineering contracts; award of task order

contract amendment; award of professional/technical service contracts/amendments; extra

services/amendments; and approve the proposed contract actions as listed in Attachment “B” including:

approval of contract amendment; and professional service contracts/amendments.

Background:Facilities Contracts staff prepares monthly reports for contract actions necessary for the execution of projectsapproved by the Board and contained in the FSD Strategic Execution Plan (SEP),and for the maintenance andoperation of District facilities in accordance with District policies and Board-delegated authority. As describedin the November 12, 2013 BOE 048-13/14 Informative, detailed information is provided on the FacilitiesServices website.

Expected Outcomes:Approval of these items will allow services provided by these contracts to proceed in support of FSD projects,District policies and goals, and the Board-approved FSD-SEP.

Board Options and Consequences:The Board can approve all actions presented or postpone selected actions pending receipt of additionalinformation. Non-ratification of actions awarded under delegated authority in Attachment "A" will result in theimmediate discontinuance of services. While non-ratification may be legally defendable, it will likely result incostly litigation over discontinued payments or if the District attempts to reclaim payments made to a vendor.District costs will likely increase as fewer contractors compete for future procurements.

Policy Implications:This action does not change District policy and conforms to California Education Code Section 17604 thatpermits the Board of Education to delegate authority for Facilities Contracts (Board Report #200-12/12), whichthe Board exercised on April 16, 2013.

Budget Impact:The contract actions presented are within the budget authority previously approved by the Board.

Issues and Analysis:There are no policy implications on these agreements.





Attachments:Attachment "A" - Ratification of Facilities Contract Actions Awarded Under Delegated Authority.Attachment "B" - Approval of Facilities Contract Actions Not Under Delegated Authority.

INTEROFFICE CORRESPONDENCE

Los Angeles Unified School District Facilities Services Division

INFORMATIVE TO: Members, Board of Education Date: June 2, 2014 Dr. John E. Deasy, Superintendent FROM: Yvette Merriman-Garrett, Director of Facilities Contracts SUBJECT: REQUEST FOR APPROVAL TO AMEND CONTRACT PARSONS BRINCKERHOFF, INC. CONTRACT NO. 1390032 AMENDMENT AMOUNT: $650,000 Introduction The Los Angeles Unified School District (District) is currently administering a multi-billion, multi-year school construction and modernization program. The District is entering into an agreement with Parsons Brinckerhoff, Inc. for senior level Program Managers, Program Management Support Staff and Program Review Services. Why is this necessary? Currently, there are four contract professionals (CPs) providing services in the Facilities Services Division (FSD) under an existing professional services agreement which expires June 30, 2014. The four contract professionals play very important roles in this program and provide experienced management and leadership in three important functional departments including Program Management, Facilities Technology Services and Program/Project Controls. The Board approval is required for Facilities Contracts to extend the current professional services agreement to Parsons Brinckerhoff, Inc. to continue program management services for one additional year. Why do we need to do this now?

The Districts existing professional services agreement with Parsons Brinckerhoff Inc. is expiring on June 30, 2014. The Facilities Services Division continues to need the experienced management and leadership these individuals provide to the Bond Program. What would happen if this were not approved? The Director of Program and Project Controls is responsible for a department of more than 60 staff members managing major functions such as budget and bond funds management, strategic planning & monitoring, financial operations, reporting & analysis, and scheduling & estimating functions related to construction projects.

Members, Board of Education Dr. John E. Deasy, Superintendent -2- June 2, 2014 The Director of Technology Services is responsible for a department of more than 30 staff members providing Facilities staff with the technology tools needed to do their jobs, and to help them use those tools. This position is responsible for the following four major groups/units: helpdesk support, enterprise applications, custom applications and system/database administration. The Senior Program Manager and the Program Manager positions provide high level management and oversight for scope, schedule and budget related to managed capital facilities programs. Examples of managed programs include Air Conditioning, Fire Alarms, Small Learning Communities, Career Academies, Core Facilities and Early Education Centers. FSD has reviewed several options to see how we can avoid the disruption to the Bond Program if we lose their services. None of these options appeared to be cost effective or viable at this time. FSD also tried to fill the Director of Program and Project Controls and Technology Services positions using District employees but, the personnel commission was unsuccessful in finding the suitable candidates. A “yes” vote will allow the four CPs to continue for up to an additional year until the construction management contracts are re-procured. This will provide continuity and avoid disruption to the Bond Program. What are the terms of the proposed agreement? Terms and conditions of this contract are consistent with the expiring professional services agreement Number 1390032. This professional services agreement will provide the following four technical/professional staff to support the Districts school construction program: • Director of Program and Project Controls • Director of Facilities Technology Services • Senior Program Manager • Program Manager

The amendment is to add one year and increase the not-to-exceed contract value by $650,000 for the final term of the agreement, for an aggregate total of $1,600,000. The agreement will expire on June 30, 2015. This contract is fully funded using bond funds.

CONTRACT NO.: 1090001 CONTRACT AMOUNT: $2,749,000 The current Job Order Contracting (JOC) Program Manager (PM), The Gordian Group’s (TGG) contract, expires on September 30, 2014. The Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) is committed to continue utilizing TGG’s services to provide JOC PM and technical services and maintenance of the construction price catalog to support LAUSD’s Job Order Contracting (JOC) Program pursuant to Assembly Bill (AB) 2580, et seq. through the end of the contract term. Job Order Contracting is an alternative and optional (best value) delivery method for bidding public works projects. It is used to accomplish a large number of individual projects under a single master contract awarded to the most qualified and prequalified bidder. Why is this necessary? Due to the high volume of the Wireless Local Access Network (WLAN) Program projects initiated by Project Execution (PEX) in mid-2013, it is necessary to increase TGG’s existing $2,249,000 contract an additional $500,000 for a total contract capacity of $2,749,000. TGG’s contract will support the District’s Common Core Technology Initiative under PEX’s WLAN Program to deliver and complete wi-fi installation and construction projects by the end of this calendar year. Why do we need to do this now? Due to the increased volume of work under the WLAN Program in addition to other repair and construction work being delivered by PEX and Maintenance and Operations (M&O, additional funds are required. We need to continue utilizing TGG’s services to accomplish and execute these construction projects. What would happen if this was not approved? If this recommendation is not approved, it would jeopardize the JOC Program’s maintenance, repair and modernization projects and disrupt completion of the WLAN projects expected to be completed by the end of this calendar year to equip the schools with wireless connectivity to be

able to use iPad, laptops, and other devices, etc. related to the Common Core Technology Initiative. What are the terms of the proposed agreement? The amendment is to increase the contract value for the final term of the agreement. The agreement will expire at the end of the term in September 2014. Prior to that date, the District will re-procure these services.

and to provide an opportunity for public expression on such proposals. The practices contained in this bulletin

are designed to implement Government Code Section 3547 (Public Notice) of the EERA.

ATTACHMENT A

2014-2015 District’s Initial Proposal for:

I. Compensation

A. Considerations: The Board of Education and the Superintendent believe that negotiations concerning economic issues, including salaries and health benefits, must take into account the following factors:

1. The need to support the Board of Education Vision, District Mission, and Guiding Principles – all of which depend upon the District’s current and future fiscal health;

2. The District’s current and future limited budgetary resources, coupled with the demands of sound fiscal practices and the California statutes requiring balanced budgets on both a current and a projected three-year basis;

3. The challenges threatening the immediate and long-term financial health of the District and its employees, including the impacts of continued declining enrollments and related losses to District income, and also the unfunded liabilities of the District and its employees within the State Teachers Retirement System (STRS)and within the District’s own Health Benefits Plan, as well as other cost items that must be controlled; and

4. The need to provide competitive total compensation (including an appropriate balance of wages/salaries and Health Benefits/other costs of employment), in order to attract and retain effective employees.

B. Salary Increases: Despite the above challenges, and the District’s inability as of yet to identify the necessary supporting revenue increases or cost-reduction measures to fund the following salary adjustments, the District is committed to a well-deserved salary increase for all District employees, now that the State appears to be beginning its recovery from the Recession. The District is willing to offer the following salary increases:

First, a 2% off-schedule, salary payment, on a one-time basis, based upon and limited to all actual 2013-14 earnings paid on base salary tables; and

Second, a 2% on-schedule general salary increase for the 2014-15 school year only, shall be applied to all base salary tables.

215

0123456789

II. Wellness: Develop a Wellness Program to improve health and wellness, raise productivity and reduce costs. Consider options to improve attendance and to meet the personal needs of employees along with the operational and instructional needs of the District and its students.

III. Performance: Increase the role of performance, competencies and experience when making decisions that impact the instructional program and District operations.

IV. Evaluations: Review and discuss Evaluation Procedures, in order to improve the quality of employee services, development and accountability, and to improveand incentivize the quality of educational and other service programs of the District.

V. Operational Efficiencies: The District will propose efficiencies where necessary. For example, the District will negotiate to reduce the complexity of current pay practices, improve fairness and efficiency, reduce overpayments, and improve coordination with the District’s payroll system.

VI. Additional Proposals: As additional subjects for negotiations may arise subsequent to Board adoption of the above initial proposals, the District shall provide notice thereof to the public by placing copies of any such additional proposals in the appropriate Initial Proposals folders located in the main lobby of District headquarters, where they shall be made available upon request to any persons wishing to review them.

VII. Term of Agreement: The District proposes three-year agreements covering 2014-15 and the two succeeding years (with automatic extension thereafter pending rights of termination by either party), with limited reopener provisions to cover the second and third of such years, relating to salaries, benefits and two other subject matters to be identified by each side.

Delegations of Authority for Procurement and Facilities Contracts

Action Proposed:Staff proposes the Board of Education approve the renewal of the updated delegations of authority for

Procurement and Facilities Contracts set forth in Attachment “A” (District Delegation Forms), with an effective

date of July 1, 2014. All proposed updated delegations do not have a sunset date.

Background:On April 16, 2013 (Board Report No. 200-12/13), the Board of Education approved Delegations of Authorityfor Procurement (including Facilities Contracts) for a one-year period, through June 30, 2014. The delegationsof authority set forth in Attachment “A” renew updated delegations of authority.

Expected Outcomes:Renewal of the attached delegations of authority will enable the LAUSD to continue to award, manage and

enforce contracts in support of the District’s Operational and Facilities programs, while reducing administrative

effort, time and costs.

Board Options and Consequences:Approving the renewal of the attached delegations will enable the District to expedite contract actions and

obtain the highest quality services and materials at the lowest possible cost, without loss of accountability. All

delegated actions will continue to be submitted to the Board for ratification in accord with the California

Education Code, Government Code, Public Contract Code and all other applicable statutory provisions.

Policy Implications:This action supports the Board’s initiatives to streamline processes, enhance efficiency, and reduceexpenditures.

Budget Impact:Approving the renewal of the attached delegations of authority will allow the District to continue to award,

manage and enforce contracts in support of the LAUSD’s building and modernization, and operational

programs, while reducing administrative effort, time and costs. Delaying these actions while waiting for future

Board approval for projects already approved by the Board needlessly decreases efficiency and increases

administrative, project and legal costs.

Issues and Analysis:Approving the renewal of the attached delegations of authority will allow the District to reduce administrative

burden, time and costs, and continue following best practices. This allows the District to obtain the highest

quality services and materials at the lowest costs.

All projects must be capital innature and adhere to bond language and laws.

The projects proposed in this Board Report will upgrade, modernize and/or enhance the learningenvironment for students. The projects include various modernization, technology, security upgrade andrepair scopes of work. Project scopes, schedules and budgets within these categories may vary dependingon site conditions and needs.

Expected Outcomes:Execution of these projects will help improve the learning environment for students, teachers and staff.

Board Options and Consequences:A “yes” vote will allow staff to execute the projects listed on Attachment A. Failure to approve thisproposed action will delay the projects and ultimately the anticipated benefit to the schools and theirstudents.

Policy Implications:The requested actions are consistent with the Board-Prioritized Facilities Programs for A&I and BMP projectsand the District’s commitment to address unmet school facilities needs and provide students with a safe andhealthy learning environment.

Budget Impact:The total combined budget for the eleven projects is $404,916. Eight projects are funded by BMP funds.The remaining three projects are funded by A&I Funds. All projects are funded with Bond Program fundsearmarked specifically for these programs.

Issues and Analysis:This report includes many time-sensitive, small to medium-sized projects that have been deemed critical by

Amendment to the Facilities Services Division Strategic Execution Plan to Define and Approve aLibrary / Multi-purpose Room Project at William Tell Aggeler Opportunity High School

Action Proposed:Staff proposes that the Board of Education amend the Facilities Services Division (FSD) Strategic ExecutionPlan (SEP) to define and approve a library/multi-purpose room project at William Tell Aggeler OpportunityHigh School (Aggeler High School), and allocate $394,885 in Bond Program funds earmarked specifically forschool upgrades and reconfigurations to support specialized instructional programs to the project to ensuresuccessful completion. The total project budget is $2,002,390, which is funded primarily by third partyfunding.

The proposed project consists of the following:

·· A new adaptive metal building structure that includes a library, multi-purpose room and restrooms;

·· Installation of a District-owned modular restroom building;

·· Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) upgrades;

·· Site upgrades necessary to enable safe and efficient operation of the campus, such as a new entrancegate, signage and fencing.

The proposed project is physically located in Board District 3 (Galatzan) and Educational Service Center North.Construction is anticipated to begin in Q1-2016 and to be completed in Q3-2016.

Background:The Israel Baran Trust named the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) as beneficiary to aninheritance of $1,518,187 and with BOE #151-08/09, the LAUSD Board of Education accepted this donation.With accumulated interest, the funding available for this project is $1,607,505. Under the provisions of theTrust, the funds must be used solely and exclusively for the construction of a library and/or a multi-purposeroom on the grounds of Aggeler High School.

In order to provide the high school with the improvements desired by the Trust, additional upgrades and/ormitigations are necessary to ensure compliance with local, state, and/or federal facilities requirements,including ADA and Division of the State Architect. These additional requirements necessitate the allocation ofBond Program funding in order to execute the project. The project scope was developed by FSD, incollaboration with the school principal and representatives from Board District.

Expected Outcomes:Approval of the proposed action will allow staff to undertake a project at Aggeler High School that will providea new adaptive metal building structure that includes a library, multi-purpose room and restrooms. Approvalwill also enable the District to use the inheritance received from the Israel Baran Trust in accordance with therelevant provisions of that trust.

Board Options and Consequences:



230

0123456789



If the Board approves the proposed action, staff will proceed with the design and subsequent construction ofupgrades to the campus that will provide a new library, multi-purpose room and restrooms.

If the Board does not approve the proposed action, the proposed project will not be executed. Additionally, theinheritance received by the District would be placed at risk.

Policy Implications:The requested action does not change current District policies.

Budget Impact:The budget for this project is $2,002,390. It will be funded by $1,607,505 of third party funds and interestreceived from the Israel Baran Trust, and approximately $394,885 of Bond Program funds earmarkedspecifically for school upgrades and reconfigurations to support specialized instructional programs.

Issues and Analysis:The Facilities Services Division has been evaluating various options for the provision of new facilities atLAUSD school sites. One such option is the use of Division of the State Architect (DSA) approved adaptivemetal buildings.

In December of 2013, the District issued a Request for Qualifications with the intent of establishing a list ofqualified providers of these structures and one vendor, Growth Point Structures, has been identified to date.Other vendors are actively working with DSA to gain approval of their adaptive metal buildings and additionalqualified vendors will be added to our bench as available.

This project and associated budget and schedule were developed based on the expectation that a configurationof adaptive metal structures will be used to provide a new building that will house the library, multi-purposeroom and restrooms.

Bond Oversight Committee Recommendations:This item was considered by the School Construction Bond Citizens’ Oversight Committee (BOC) at itsmeeting on May 29, 2014. Staff has concluded that this proposed SEP amendment will help facilitateimplementation of the FSD-SEP, and therefore, it will not adversely affect the District’s ability to successfullycomplete the FSD-SEP.

Attachments:None.

Amendment to the Facilities Services Division Strategic Execution Plan to Define and Approve the DianeWatson Career Center Project

Action Proposed:Staff proposes that the Board of Education amend the Facilities Services Division (FSD) Strategic ExecutionPlan (SEP) to define and approve the Diane Watson Career Center project, and allocate $2,184,496 in BondProgram funds earmarked specifically for adult and career education facilities in the School Upgrade Program(SUP) to the project to ensure successful completion. The total project budget is $12,672,352, which is fundedprimarily by non-bond sources.

The proposed project will renovate and reconfigure an existing 17,000 square foot building into an auto shoptraining facility to be operated by the Division of Adult and Career Education (DACE). The auto shop willprovide high school and adult students with access to a variety of specialized hands-on and classroomautomotive training opportunities including: engine and brake repair, alignment, general mechanics, and smogcertification. The project consists of, but is not limited to:

- Eleven state-of-the-art vehicle analysis, diagnostic and repair bays- Four classrooms- Administrative space including an office, conference room, reception area and consultation room- Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant restroom facilities- Electrical upgrades to provide sufficient capacity for future training on electric vehicle diagnostic and

repair technology- Closed-circuit television system- Structural upgrades to comply with Field Act standards

This project is located in Board District 1, and physically located in Education Service Center West.Construction of the final phase of the project began in May 2014, and is anticipated to be completed in Q4-2014.

Background:The Diane Watson Career Center project is located at 3833 South Crenshaw Boulevard, in the City of LosAngeles. The building was built in 1949 and originally served as an automobile sales and service center. TheDistrict purchased the property in 2009 in an effort to provide District students with additional specializedhands-on technical training opportunities.

The project has been fully funded with non-bond dollars since it was initiated. Earlier this year, the projectbudget increased by $1,184,496 as a result of the award of the construction contract for the final phase of theproject, and the funding strategy was updated to reflect a temporary allocation from Special Residual Reservefunds (SAP Fund 401-9010 Functional Area 000-8500-16761). Additionally, given the potential for unforeseenconditions that exists when upgrading and reconfiguring existing non-school buildings into a school facility, thebudget was increased by an additional $1,000,000. However given the shortage of non-bond sources, and the



237

0123456789



availability of Bond Program funds for adult and career education facilities projects made available through theSUP (BOE #143-13/14), staff is proposing that the additional funding needed to complete this capital project befunded with the aforementioned Bond Program funds.

Upon approval of this action, $2,184,496 of bond funds earmarked specifically for adult and career educationfacilities projects in the SUP will be allocated to this project. This will allow $1,184,496 of project funds toreimburse the LAUSD Special Residual Reserve funds that were temporarily allocated to this project (SAPFund 401-9010 Functional Area 000-8500-16761).

Expected Outcomes:Staff anticipates that the Board of Education will approve the proposed action to define the Diane WatsonCareer Training Center project. The proposed action will provide high school and adult education students inthe Crenshaw community with access to a variety of specialized automotive training programs.

Board Options and Consequences:Approval of this proposed action will allow bond funding earmarked specifically for adult and career educationfacilities in the SUP to fund a portion of the Diane Watson Career Training Center project.

If the proposed action is not approved, the remaining funding for this project would need to be paid from non-bond sources.

Policy Implications:The action proposed is consistent with Board-approved uses of local bond funds and its commitment to addressunmet school facilities needs and provide K-12, early education and DACE students with a safe and healthylearning environment.

Budget Impact:The Diane Watson Career Center project budget is $12,672,352 which includes permanent funding of$10,487,856 from various non-bond sources. An additional $2,184,496 of permanent funding is necessary toensure the successful completion of this project. Approval of this action will allocate bond funds earmarkedspecifically for adult and career education facilities in the SUP as permanent funding to this project and willbring all its sources into the FSD-SEP.

Issues and Analysis:The proposed project will provide high school and adult students in and around the Crenshaw community withaccess to automotive training opportunities. Further, this DACE program will equip students with the skillsnecessary to compete for jobs in the automotive field.

Bond Oversight Committee Recommendations:This item was considered by the School Construction Bond Citizens’ Oversight Committee (BOC) at itsmeeting on May 29, 2014. Staff has concluded that this proposed SEP amendment will help facilitateimplementation of the FSD-SEP, and therefore, it will not adversely affect the District’s ability to successfullycomplete the FSD-SEP.

Amendment to the Facilities Services Division Strategic Execution Plan to Cancel Projects

Action Proposed:Staff proposes that the Board of Education amend the Facilities Services Division Strategic Execution Plan(SEP) to take the following actions:

·· Cancel 335 projects listed in Attachment A that were previously designated by the Board of Educationas unfunded projects; and

·· Cancel 19 projects listed in Attachment B that are currently active but for which the scope as defined isno longer needed.

Background:The Bond Program began in 1997 with the approval by local voters of Proposition BB and has since grownwith the passage of Statewide bonds as well as additional local bond Measures K, R, Y and Q, enabling theFacilities Services Division to further its mission of providing healthy and safe learning environments thatsupport educational achievement. As the Bond Program evolved, the Board of Education approvedamendments to the Facilities Services Division SEP that reallocated bond funds to ensure the completion ofprogram goals or to address emerging priorities. These SEP amendments, approved periodically between 2007and 2013, resulted in the designation of select projects as unfunded until additional funding sources could beidentified and allocated to those projects through future Board actions. The SEP amendments approved in 2012and 2013 also cancelled projects that had been deemed unnecessary or cost prohibitive and facilitated theimplementation of the Facilities Services Division SEP by more accurately reflecting the remaining work to beundertaken.

More recently, the Board of Education approved the establishment of the School Upgrade Program in January2014, which will serve as the next phase of the District's Bond Program to modernize, build and repair schoolfacilities. The Board's action approved the overarching goals and principles, funding sources, specificcategories of need, and spending targets for the School Upgrade Program with a total allocation of$7,852,970,000 to support the creation of future projects. The School Upgrade Program was developed withnew information about the condition of the District’s facilities from the completed capital needs assessment andmaster planning effort as well as the ongoing facilities condition assessment while also taking into account theDistrict’s current instructional vision.

Many of the unfunded projects listed in Attachment A are no longer required because the facilities needs theywere designed to address have already been met through the completion of other bond-funded projects or theunfunded projects do not meet the recently-approved goals and principles of the Bond Program. Anyoutstanding facilities requirements from these projects will be addressed as part of the master planning effortand/or the facilities condition assessments, which are currently underway to determine the remaining servicelife of different types of school site building components, and will later be folded into the development ofprojects under the School Upgrade Program.Due to the nature of working on existing campuses, the Repair & Modernization Program adapts to changes in



242

0123456789



the operating school environment by revising projects when necessary. The active projects listed in AttachmentB are proposed for cancellation because the project scope either no longer aligns with the priorities identifiedby school administrators and community stakeholders, is no longer needed due to changes in school operations,or will be completed through other bond-funded projects at the school.

Expected Outcomes:Staff anticipates that the Board of Education will approve the proposed action to cancel 335 unfunded projectsin Attachment A and 19 active projects in Attachment B. Cancellation of these projects will allow the SchoolUpgrade Program to comprehensively review work to be pursued at school facilities to improve student health,safety and educational quality. Approval of the proposed action will also enable staff to produce a 2014 updateto the Facilities Services Division SEP that represents the remaining funded work that will be executed as partof the Bond Program.

Board Options and Consequences:If the Board approves the proposed action, staff will proceed with cancelling 335 unfunded projects and 19active projects, thereby removing them from the Facilities Services Division SEP. Approval of this actionwould also enable any remaining work requirements to be combined with the School Upgrade Program’sefforts to further modernize and repair school facilities. If the Board does not approve the proposed action, the335 projects in Attachment A will remain unfunded, inactive, and displayed in the Unfunded Projects exhibit ofthe Facilities Services Division SEP. Before projects could be executed, accurate scopes, schedules, budgets,and additional funding sources would need to be identified and presented to the Bond Citizens' OversightCommittee and Board of Education for each project. Additionally, without Board approval of this action, the19 active projects in Attachment B would remain in the Facilities Services Division SEP but would be placedon hold as the defined scope for these projects is not needed to fulfill the current objectives for the BondProgram.

Policy Implications:The requested action does not change current District policies.

Budget Impact:There is no impact to the General Fund as Bond Program funds are associated with the projects included in thisproposed action. The budgets and commitments related to individual projects are being reviewed and analyzedin order to determine the amount of funds, if any, that can be made available to the Bond Program. Shouldavailable funding be identified, it will be returned to the Board-prioritized program associated with eachcancelled project.

Issues and Analysis:The unfunded projects listed in Attachment A are organized by the four prior Board actions taken to unfundthem. The first took place on October 23, 2007, when Board of Education Report No. 112-07/08 approved theNew Construction Two-Semester Neighborhood School Program in order to achieve the goal of providing atwo-semester neighborhood school for all students. In accordance with this action, several New Constructionprojects that would have further reduced overcrowding at K-12 schools, but were no longer necessary toprovide neighborhood schools operating on a two-semester calendar, became unfunded projects.In December 2011, Board of Education Report No. 086-11/12 approved the Prioritization and Funding Strategyfor School Information Technology (IT) Network Infrastructure Upgrades. This second action reallocated bondfunds from several Bond Program areas, including selected sustainability projects and a photovoltaicinstallation project belonging to the Capital Improvement Program, to fund IT network infrastructure andequipment upgrade projects at schools with limited or no access to electronic instructional initiatives.

The majority of unfunded projects were designated as such by Board of Education Report No. 201-11/12 whenit was approved on April 10, 2012. This third Board action included the cancellation of more than 600 projectsas well as moved 285 projects in the Repair & Modernization Program and 3 projects in Deferred Maintenanceto an unfunded status as they were deemed unnecessary or cost prohibitive due to changes in scope andincreased cost estimates. Please note that Deferred Maintenance projects are not part of the Bond Program,however the projects are included in this proposed action since they were previously designated as unfunded bythe Board of Education.

The most recent Board action taken to unfund projects occurred in February 2013 with Board of EducationReport No. 155-12/13. Much like the Board item from a year earlier, select projects in the Repair &Modernization Program were either cancelled or unfunded because the project scope no longer aligned withprogram priorities and/or exceeded the available funds for each project.

Attachment A lists the 335 unfunded projects that are proposed for cancellation including the prior Boardactions related to their unfunded status, project numbers, school names/project names, the Board Districts andphysical Educational Service Centers where projects were located, program types, and project costs. Thecancellation of unfunded projects will allow any remaining facilities needs associated with these projects to beevaluated more comprehensively as part of the School Upgrade Program and its development of fundedprojects in the future.Attachment B is organized by school names/project names and lists the 19 active projects that are proposed forcancellation including project numbers, the Board districts and physical Educational Service Centers whereprojects were located, managed programs, and project costs. The cancellation of these active projects willassist in the production of the 2014 Facilities Services Division SEP by ensuring that the annual updateincludes only the scope that will move forward in the Bond Program.

Bond Oversight Committee Recommendations:This item was considered by the School Construction Bond Citizens’ Oversight Committee (BOC) at itsmeeting of May 29, 2014. Staff has concluded that this proposed Facilities Services Division SEP amendmentwill facilitate implementation of the SEP, and therefore, it will not adversely affect the District’s ability tosuccessfully complete the SEP.

Attachments:Attachment A - Cancellation of Unfunded ProjectsAttachment B - Cancellation of Active Projects

Authorization to Continue the Lease for the North Valley Occupational Center Satellite Facility at 16550Saticoy Street on Van Nuys Airport Property

Action Proposed:Staff proposes that the Board of Education authorize the Chief Facilities Executive, and/or his designee(s), tocontinue the month-to-month tenancy at an annual rate of one dollar, for the North Valley Occupational CenterSatellite Facility at the Van Nuys Airport located at 16550 Saticoy Street in the City of Los Angeles. Authoritycurrently granted to staff to continue execution of the lease expires on June 30, 2014. As such, staff requestsauthorization to continue the month-to-month tenancy at an annual rate of one dollar beginning July 1, 2014,and continue to lease this facility so long as the total amount paid does not exceed $100.

Background:The Division of Adult and Career Education (DACE) has leased a 23,325 square foot building on 2.96 acres ofland at the Van Nuys Airport for the North Valley Occupational Center Satellite Facility since 1978. As of July2013, the District was able to negotiate new terms on a short-term basis in recognition of the severe cuts to theDACE budget and the value the program provides to the community at large and the onsite airport.

This facility is home to DACE’s Airframe and Power Plant Mechanic Program (Aviation Program). TheAviation Program enrolls approximately 100 adult and high school students annually. Upon completion of theAviation Program, graduates go on to seek certification from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) asaircraft engine and airframe mechanics. The operation of this site specific educational program is dependent onits locational relationship to airport resources.

The site is located in ESC North and Board District 6 (Ratliff).

Expected Outcomes:Authorization to continue the month-to-month tenancy at an annual rate of one dollar, so long as the total

amount paid does not-exceed $100. This will allow DACE to continue the Airframe and Power Plant Mechanic

program at the North Valley Occupational Center Satellite Facility located at the Van Nuys Airport.

Board Options and Consequences:If the Board approves this action, staff will continue the month-to-month lease at an annual rent of one dollar so

long as the total amount paid does not-exceed $100.

If the Board does not approve this proposed action, the District will be required to vacate the Van Nuys Airport

facility by June 30, 2014, and suspend the Aviation Program if and until an alternative specialty facility is

secured.

Policy Implications:The requested action does not impact current District policies.

wood, and painting to match existing areas affected in the roof demolition.§ Project Budget -- $701,859§ Project Schedule - Construction is anticipated to begin in October 2014, and conclude in January 2015.

4. Sunny Brae Elementary School - Project to Address Deteriorated FlooringEducational Service Center North, Board District 3

§ Project Background and Scope - The deteriorated asbestos-containing floor tiles are in poor conditioncausing not only a tripping hazard, but a health hazard due to the risk of an asbestos release. Theproject will replace the deteriorated flooring and abate the asbestos in various rooms located in the mainoffice building, auditorium and classroom buildings.

§ Project Budget -- $428,005§ Project Schedule -Construction is anticipated to begin in July 2014, and conclude in September 2015.

Background:On January 14, 2014, the Board of Education approved the establishment of the School Upgrade Program(SUP), the next phase of the District's Bond Program which will modernize, build and repair school facilities toimprove student health, safety and educational quality. The Board's action approved the overarching goals andprinciples, funding sources, specific categories of need, and spending targets for the SUP. In total,$7,852,970,000 was allocated to support the development of projects under the SUP.

The SUP includes a spending target to address "Critical School Repair and Safety Improvements to SchoolBuilding Components." Projects developed under this category of need are included in the Facilities ServicesDivision Strategic Execution Plan. The four proposed projects to address critical school repair needs arenecessary to improve student health, safety and educational quality.

Expected Outcomes:Staff anticipates that the Board of Education will approve the proposed action to define and approve fourprojects to address critical school repair needs that will improve student health, safety and educational quality.

Board Options and Consequences:A “yes” vote will authorize staff to proceed with the expenditure of bond funds to undertake the four proposedprojects in accordance with the provisions set forth in Measures K, R, Y and Q. If the proposed action is notapproved, bond funds will not be expended and critical school repair needs will remain unaddressed.

Policy Implications:These actions are consistent with the District’s commitment to address unmet school facilities needs andprovide students with a safe and healthy learning environment.

Budget Impact:The total combined budget for the four critical school repair projects is $2,623,070. The projects will befunded by Bond Program funds earmarked specifically for critical school repair and safety improvements toschool building components.

Issues and Analysis:It may be necessary to undertake feasibility studies, site analysis, scoping, and/or due diligence activities on theproposed projects prior to initiating design. As necessary, the Office of Environmental Health and Safety(OEHS) will evaluate the proposed projects in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA) to ensure compliance. If through the planning and design process it is determined that the proposed



263

0123456789



project scope(s) will not sufficiently address the critical need identified, the project scope, schedule, and budgetwill be revised accordingly.

Bond Oversight Committee Recommendations:This item was considered by the School Construction Bond Citizens’ Oversight Committee (BOC) at itsmeeting of May 29, 2014. Staff has concluded that this proposed FSD SEP amendment will facilitateimplementation of the FSD SEP, and therefore, it will not adversely affect the District’s ability to successfullycomplete the FSD SEP.

Amendment to the Facilities Services Division Strategic Execution Plan to Define and Approve FourPilot/Small School Facilities Reconfiguration and Upgrade Projects

Action Proposed:Staff proposes that the Board of Education approve an amendment to the Facilities Services Division (“FSD”)Strategic Execution Plan (“SEP”) to define and approve four pilot/small school facilities reconfiguration andupgrade projects, and authorize the Chief Facilities Executive, and/or his designee, to make any associatedpurchases.

Each of the proposed projects will reconfigure and upgrade existing school facilities to create a separateand distinct space for the operation of a Board-approved autonomous pilot/small school. Projects includevarious facilities renovations and reconfigurations, technology and telecommunication infrastructureupgrades, and equipping the facility with furniture, fixtures and equipment. Project scopes, schedules andbudgets vary depending on site conditions and individual needs/requirements of each specializedinstructional program. The proposed projects are listed below:

- Reconfigure and upgrade eight classrooms and one administrative office at Hollenbeck Middle Schoolto create separate and distinct facilities space to enable the successful operation of Boyle HeightsScience Technology Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) High School. The proposed project budgetis $335,688. Construction is anticipated to begin in June 2014, and to be completed in July 2014. Theproject is in Educational Service Center ISIC, and Board District 2 (García).

- Reconfigure and upgrade 13 classrooms and one administrative office at Jefferson High School tocreate separate and distinct facilities space to enable the successful operation of Nava CollegePreparatory High School. The proposed project budget is $516,511. Construction is anticipated tobegin in June 2014, and to be completed in July 2014. The project is in Educational Service CenterISIC, and Board District 5 (Kayser).

- Reconfigure and upgrade 16 classrooms, three administrative offices, and two counseling offices atLincoln High School to create separate and distinct facilities space to enable the successful operationof Academy of Environmental and Social Policy (ESP) High School. The proposed project budget is$320,400. Construction is anticipated to begin in June 2014, and to be completed in July 2014. Theschool is in Educational Service Center East, and Board District 2 (García).

- Reconfigure and upgrade seven classrooms, two administrative offices, and four closets/workrooms atWestchester High School to create a separate and distinct facilities space to enable the successfuloperation of the Incubator School. The proposed project budget is $235,440. Construction isanticipated to begin in June 2014, and to be completed in July 2014. The project is in EducationalService Center ISIC, and Board District 4 (Zimmer).

The total combined budget for these projects is $1,599,703, of which $1,408,039 will be funded by Bond



267

0123456789



Program funds earmarked for specialized instructional programs in the School Upgrade Program (SUP), andthe remaining $191,664 will be funded with General Funds.

Background:The Board of Education approved the Office of Intensive Support and Intervention's recommendations toestablish the Incubator School (BOE #221-12/13), ESP High School (BOE #362-09/10), and the Boyle HeightsSTEM High School and Nava College Preparatory High School (BOE #204-13/14). The proposed projects arenecessary to enable the successful operation of autonomous pilot/small schools, beginning at start of the 2014-2015 school year.

On January 14, 2014, the Board of Education approved the establishment of the School Upgrade Program(SUP), the next phase of the District's Bond Program which will modernize, build and repair school facilities toimprove student health, safety and educational quality. The Board's action approved the overarching goals andprinciples, funding sources, specific categories of need, and spending targets for the SUP. In total,$7,852,970,000 was allocated to support the development of projects under the SUP.

The SUP includes a spending target to address "School Upgrades and Reconfigurations to Support SpecializedInstructional Programs." Projects developed under this category of need are included in the Facilities ServicesDivision Strategic Execution Plan. The four proposed projects to reconfigure and upgrade existing schoolfacilities to create a separate and distinct space for the operation of Board-approved autonomous pilot/smallschools meet the requirements of this spending target and are necessary to ensure student health, safety andeducational quality.

Pilot/small schools are established to provide models of educational excellence that will help foster widespreadeducational reform throughout LAUSD. They are located on school campuses, and classroom space isreconfigured to accommodate the designated student population. The Division of Intensive Support andIntervention identified four reconfiguration and upgrade projects for the 2014-2015 school year to support thecreation and operation of autonomous pilot/small schools.

Expected Outcomes:Approval of the proposed action to allow the execution of four pilot/small school facilities reconfiguration andupgrade projects. When construction is complete, each pilot/small school can operate independently from theDistrict’s co-located site.

With approval of this proposed action, Bond Program funds earmarked for school upgrades andreconfigurations to support specialized instructional programs will be made available to immediately executethe proposed projects. These facilities improvements will increase the likelihood that the District school andpilot/small school will successfully and safely operate their separate instructional programs on a single schoolsite, with minimal interference and disruption to their respective educational programs.

Board Options and Consequences:If “yes” vote, the FSD-SEP will be amended and the District will utilize Bond Program funds earmarked forschool upgrades and reconfigurations to support specialized instructional programs to execute the fourproposed projects.

If “no” vote, the District will need to identify another funding source to meet operational needs of thePilot/small school program.

Policy Implications:This action does not change District policies. It is consistent with the District’s commitment to address unmetschool facilities needs, provide students with a safe and healthy learning environment, and support specialized



268

0123456789



instructional opportunities to its students.

Budget Impact:The total combined budget for the proposed projects is $1,599,703. Bond Program funds earmarked forspecialized instructional programs in the SUP will fund $1,408,039 of the budget, and the remaining $191,664will be funded with General Funds.

Issues and Analysis:Pilot/small schools are established to provide models of educational excellence that will help foster widespreadeducational reform throughout LAUSD. Bond Program funds have been earmarked for school upgrades andreconfigurations to support specialized instructional programs such as these four pilot/small schools.

Bond Oversight Committee Recommendations:This item was considered by the School Construction Bond Citizens’ Oversight Committee (“BOC”) at itsmeeting on May 29, 2014. Staff has concluded that this proposed SEP amendment will help facilitateimplementation of the FSD-SEP, and therefore, it will not adversely affect the District’s ability to successfullycomplete the FSD-SEP.

Approval of the Renewal of the Affiliated Charter for Dr. Theodore T. Alexander Science Center [PublicHearing]

Action Proposed:Staff of the Charter Schools Division recommends approval of the renewal with benchmarks, of the charter forDr. Theodore T. Alexander Science Center School for five (5) years, beginning July 1, 2014 until June 30,2019, to serve 650 students in grades K-5 in each year of the charter term.

Background:On April 2, 2014, Dr. Theodore T. Alexander Science Center School (“Alexander Science Center”) submittedits affiliated charter renewal petition application to the Charter Schools Division. The charter petition andsupporting documents were reviewed by the Charter Schools Division, the Office of the General Counsel, andother District staff. The 90-day statutory timeline due to wavier for Board action on this petition continuesuntil Tuesday, July 1, 2014.

In accordance with Education Code sections 47605 and 47607, the Charter Schools Division considers thefollowing criteria when reviewing a renewal petition submitted by a charter school:

·· Confirmation that the charter school’s performance has met the minimum criteria under Education Codesection 47607(b), including considering increases in pupil academic achievement for all groups ofpupils served by the charter school as the most important factor in determining whether to grant acharter renewal;

·· Review of the charter petition to assess the soundness of the educational program; ensure it contains therequired affirmations; and ensure it contains reasonably comprehensive descriptions of the 16 elements;

·· Assessment that the petitioners are demonstrably likely to successfully implement the program;

·· Confirmation of the academic, operational, and fiscal soundness of the charter school based on theCharter Schools Division oversight and the school’s achievement results on the District’s SchoolPerformance Framework.

Academic Renewal Criteria:

Education Code section 47607 requires authorizing entities to consider increases in pupil academicachievement for all groups of pupils served by the charter school as the most important factor in determiningwhether to grant a charter renewal.

The Charter Schools Division must confirm whether the charter school has met at least one of the belowminimum criteria set forth in Education Code 47607(b) for schools in operation at least four years. Moreover,as stated above, Education Code section 47607 requires the authorizing Board of Education to consider



272

0123456789



as stated above, Education Code section 47607 requires the authorizing Board of Education to considerincreases in pupil academic achievement for all groups of pupils served by the charter school as the mostimportant factor in determining whether to grant a charter renewal.

1. Attained its Academic Performance Index (API) growth target in the prior year or in two of the lastthree years both schoolwide and for all groups of pupils served by the charter school; or2. Ranked in deciles 4 to 10, inclusive, on the API in the prior year or in two of the last three years; or3. Ranked in deciles 4 to 10, inclusive, on the API for a demographically comparable school in the

prior year or in two of the last three years; or4. (A) The entity that granted the charter determines that the academic performance of the charter

school is at least equal to the academic performance of the public schools that the charter schoolpupils would otherwise have been required to attend, as well as the academic performance of theschools in the school district in which the charter school is located, taking into account thecomposition of the pupil population that is served at the charter school.(B) The determination made pursuant to this paragraph shall be based upon all of the following:(i) Documented and clear and convincing data.(ii) Pupil achievement data from assessments, including, but not limited to, the Standardized Testing

and Reporting Program established by Article 4 (commencing with Section 60640) fordemographically similar pupil populations in the comparison schools.

(iii) Information submitted by the charter school.

Staff has determined that Alexander Science Center has met minimum academic performance criteria forrenewal, inclusive of analysis of data presented under Education Code section 47607(b)4.

Alexander Science Center is an affiliated charter school which serves students in grades K-5 in Board District1, Educational Service Center West (ESCW), at 3737 S. Figueroa, Los Angeles, CA 90007. The school’scurrent enrollment is 638 students in grades K-5.

Alexander Science Center was originally approved by the Board of Education in October 2003 to open in 2004and renewed in 2009. For the proposed 2014-2019 charter term, the school will serve up to approximately 650students in grades K-5. The school’s program includes a partnership with the California Science Center for aScience, Technology, Engineering, and Math focus (STEM) and a Dual Language program in Spanish. Bydesign, the school collaboratively serves students from the combined attendance boundaries of Vermont EL,Weemes EL, Norwood EL, Normandie EL, Menlo EL, John Mack EL, Jones Primary Center, South Region EL#10, and King Jr. EL schools. During the current charter term of 2009-2014, the school’s student body hasreflected the community in which it operates. According to October 2012 CDE data, the school’sdemographics are approximately 74% Latino, 22% African American, 1% Asian, and 1% White. As a Districtaffiliated charter school, Alexander Science Center will implement the provisions of the Master Plan forEnglish Learners and comply with all applicable federal and state laws, District policies and procedures relatedto the implementation of the English Learner Master Plan including the school’s Dual Language program.

Alexander Science Center has met one of the four minimum academic performance criteria for renewalrequired under Education Code section 47607(b) as evidenced below in the Summary of School Performance.The school did not meet API targets, State and Similar Schools ranks criteria and thus has not met the first threecriteria as outlined in 47607(b). The school’s 2012-13 API is 766. The State Rank is 3 and Similar SchoolsRank is 2. However the school has met the fourth criteria of EC 47607(b)(4). The school has performedstrongly in comparison to Resident Schools. Data from the Office of Data and Accountability indicates that theScience Center school’s API of 766 is above the Resident Schools Median API of 739. The Science CenterSchool achieved 44% school-wide proficiency in ELA on the CST while the Resident Schools Median wasLos Angeles Unified School District Printed on 5/30/2014Page 2 of 5


273

0123456789



School achieved 44% school-wide proficiency in ELA on the CST while the Resident Schools Median was37%. In the area of Math, the Science Center School achieved 56% school-wide proficiency while the ResidentSchools Median was 53%. The school’s Academic Growth Over Time for 2012-13 was above the Districtaverage in English Language Arts and within the District Average for Mathematics.

The District-wide School Performance Framework (SPF) classification is another criterion considered whenreviewing a charter school renewal petition. According to the 2013 SPF, Alexander Science Center has beenclassified as a “Watch” school, which is the second lowest tier of five possible tiers of performance. Theschool’s placement in this tier is a result of the school’s lower levels of achievement in CST proficiency inschoolwide ELA and Math and in Third grade reading proficiency. The school did earn a higher level of statuspoints on the School Performance Framework for Special Education students’ participation in generaleducation. (See Summary of Charter School Performance.)

Alexander Science Center attributes its past academic performance to previous and specific organizationalchallenges including establishing continuity in key leadership and the instructional team positions due toturnover in the Principal position as well as staff turnover during the budget crisis. These challengescontributed to the school’s inability to effectively and consistently deliver the high achieving instructionalprogram and innovations outlined in the charter. ESC West leadership continues to work closely with theschool’s new leadership to support positive changes and growth in student achievement.

In response to these organizational challenges and recognition of the need to improve the school’s instructionalprograms and academic outcomes, the school and ESC leadership, in partnership with the California ScienceCenter have made significant and strategic changes. These positive changes support the school community inachieving their goal of becoming a National Model School for Science, its designation by the District as a labschool for other schools to visit for implementation of Common Core State Standards beginning in 2014-15,and the Charter Schools Division’s recommendation for renewal with benchmarks.

The Principal and California Science Center have a strong collaborative partnership and formal organizationalstructures have been established to facilitate this ongoing collaboration. Structures include weekly planningmeetings between the Principal and Science Center representative, joint classroom walk-throughs, feedbackregarding the Science Center Liaisons who work with each grade level, science themed projects, andcollaboration about implementation of instructional strategies. The partnership also includes stronginvolvement from the Educational Service Center West in a collaborative manner that supports the mission andvision of both the district and the charter petition. A school-wide needs assessment initiated by the Principal incollaboration with the staff, has resulted in professional development focused on the implementation ofessential charter petition components, dual language implementation, technology, and Science Center inquirybased learning focused on increasing student achievement. Specific teacher teams were created specifically toserve as resource leaders in sharing information with the entire staff in the areas of Science, Technology, andDual Language. New structures also include a Common Core trained teacher per grade level to serve as thegrade level leader in supporting the implementation of Common Core State Standards. The data analysiscomponent of the needs assessment has yielded new support structures created for students and parents in thedual language program (i.e. parent support group, after school intervention) and a refined process forimplementing and following up on grade level and classroom action plans targeting student needs. The positivedirection of the school is also apparent in its designation by the District as a lab school for other schools to visitfor implementation of Common Core State Standards beginning in 2014-15.

Best practices are routinely shared among the staff as a part of their on-going self-reflection on data analysisfrom benchmark assessments. After benchmark assessments, time is set aside for grade levels to collaboratearound a staff member(s) who had success with students on a particular concept and develop action plans andLos Angeles Unified School District Printed on 5/30/2014Page 3 of 5


274

0123456789



around a staff member(s) who had success with students on a particular concept and develop action plans andcalibration around the strategy’s implementation. The collaboration does not occur only at grade level, butstructured time for vertical articulation occurs also to additionally share best practices across all grades. Theresultant action plans are reviewed and monitored by the principal on a six to eight week cycle.

Targeted intervention strategies include each teacher implementing specific strategies for identified students onfour to six week cycles based on assessment tools such as DIBELS, BURST, and Envision Math. Interventionoccurs within the classroom, in small groups, in afterschool settings, and with the support of an Interventionteacher with an evaluation about the student’s needs and next steps occurring at the end of the cycle. Theschool has allocated funding toward CELDT preparation for English Learners, English Learner intervention,and afterschool intervention to improve student achievement.

As a high quality authorizer, LAUSD strives to share and leverage promising and innovative practices acrossLAUSD schools to help generate innovation and improve educational outcomes for all students. The schoolhas exhibited some of the following promising practices:

1) Science Center School teachers work with the California Science Center Specialists (Liaisons)three times a year to execute three, six to eight week science cycles featuring FOSS Investigationsevery year. These investigations include lab projects that every student participates in as abaseline, and includes the inquiry process. Students frequent the Natural History Museum andCalifornia Science Center to solidify their knowledge of complicated scientific processes.

2) Teachers have incorporated the National Technology Standards into their daily curriculum. Eachgrade level has created three benchmark technology projects that students will successfullycomplete every year.

Accordingly, Staff recommends the renewal based on the positive trajectory in multiple areas established by thestable collaborative leadership team of the Principal, California Science Center, and ESC West. The positivetrajectory is evident in the school’s implementation of formal and consistent systems targeting increasedstudent achievement and self-reflection. It is also evident in the school’s implementation of instruction focusedon higher level thinking skills through Science, the school’s transition to Common Core State Standards, andthe school’s identification as a lab school beginning in 2014-15.

The petition is available for perusal in the Charter Schools Division and online at the District’s Board ofEducation website at <http://laschoolboard.org/charterpetitions>.

Expected Outcomes:Dr. Theodore T. Alexander Science Center School is expected to operate its charter school in a mannerconsistent with District policy, local, state, and federal ordinances, laws and regulations and with the terms andconditions set forth in its petition, as well as the noted benchmark to improve the school’s academicperformance. The measurable pupil outcomes and method by which pupil progress toward outcomes will bemeasured as are set forth in the charter petition.

Board Options and Consequences:“Yes” - The approval of the renewal of the charter term for five (5) years would grant the Dr. Theodore T.Alexander Science Center School the right to continue to operate as a charter school under the terms of therenewal petition for a five (5) year period beginning July 1, 2014.



275

0123456789



“No” - The denial of the renewal of the charter term would cause the charter to expire on June 30, 2014, unlessDr. Theodore T. Alexander Science Center School appeals the denial and the charter is granted by the LosAngeles County Board of Education or the California State Board of Education. This Board Report No. 390 -13/14 and accompanying documents shall constitute the Board of Education’s adopted written findings of factfor the denial of the Dr. Theodore T. Alexander Science Center School renewal petition.

Policy Implications:There are no policy implications at this time.

Budget Impact:The petition is to establish an affiliated charter school. As an affiliated charter school, revenues will be receivedby LAUSD on their behalf. Thus, the school becomes a locally-funded charter school. The District will allocateschool resources in the same manner as it does for non-charter schools except as otherwise specified in statuteand in the District Affiliated Policy Bulletin 5439.0.

Issues and Analysis:All pending issues shall be resolved at the time of the Board meeting.

(A) The entity that granted the charter determines that the academic performance of the charter school is at least equal to the academic performance of the public schools that the charter school pupils would otherwise have been required to attend, as well as the academic performance of the schools in the school district in which the charter school is located, taking into account the composition of the pupil population that is served at the charter school.

(B) The determination made pursuant to this paragraph shall be based upon all of the following:(i). Documented and clear and convincing data.

(ii). Pupil achievement data from assessments, including, but not limited to, the Standardized Testing and Reporting Program established by Article 4 (commencing with Section 60640) for demographically similar pupil populations in the comparison schools.

(iii). Information submitted by the charter school.

Note: If a charter school has not been in operation for at least four years, this section of Education Code serves as reference. The Charter Schools Division will present findings based on its analysis of the school’s performance data to date, and of the academic, operational, and fiscal soundness of the charter school based on Charter Schools Division oversight.

Dr. Theodore Alexander Science School (Alexander Science Center) has met the minimum statutory requirement as evidenced in the Data Summary Report.

Student Discipline

Discipline and expulsion policies used at District schools must comply with the California Education Code. LAUSD charter schools must comply with the provisions related to suspensions and expulsions that are put forth in the Charter Schools Division’s Required Language for Charter Petitions. Alexander Science Center’s grounds for student suspension and expulsion are the same as the District’s and thus aligned with those listed in Education Code Section 48900 et seq. As the data below shows, the school had 2 suspensions and 0 expulsions for the 2012-13 school year. In 2011-12 school year, the school reported 4 suspensions and 0 expulsions. As of the date of this report, the school reports 1 suspensionand 0 expulsions for the current school year. The school reports that it has recently revised its suspension and expulsion policies and procedures to ensure a more cohesive, clear, and effective process for all stakeholders.

Special Education

According to the December 2012 CASEMIS report, Alexander Science Center enrolled Special Education students at a rate that is slightly below the District average. The school had a special education enrollment rate of 8%, which was three percentage points lower than the LAUSD Similar Schools from CDE Median (11%). The school is committed to continuing its efforts to identify and serve students with disabilities. The school provides both strategic and intensive targeted intervention as needed for students. The school has implemented the Collaborative Learning Model (CLM) of full inclusion to meet the unique learning and social needs of students with disabilities. This model includespush in services, pullout when identified in the IEP, and regular collaboration between special education and general education teachers to embed instructional strategies in the weekly lessons to ensure access to the curriculum, delivery of services, and ongoing progress monitoring.

English Learners

The tables below represent the number of English Learners identified, served and reclassified by Alexander Science Center. The school’s October 2012 CALPADS English learner population of 30% was slightly higher than the LAUSD Similar Schools from CDE Median of 28%. The school’s 2012-13 reclassification rate of 9.6% was lower than the LAUSD Similar Schools from CDE Median rate of 17.3%. In 2011-12 the school reclassified 24.3% of English Learners which was above the reclassification rate of LAUSD Similar Schools Median 19.2%. In the past, the school was not reviewing performance toward reclassification regularly and thus there is inconsistency in reclassification rates over the last few years. However, the school now implements a system in which the site level leadership team reviews the progress of English Learners quarterly for closer monitoring of supports needed for English Learners and readiness for reclassification.

EVALUATION VISIT RESULTS

Following are definitions of the School Performance Evaluation ratings:

An evaluation of accomplished applies to operations characterized, overall, by strengths. There are very few weaknesses and any that do exist do not diminish the students’ experience. While an evaluation of accomplished represents a high standard of operating, it is a standard that should be achievable in all schools. It implies that it is fully appropriate for a school to continue its operations without significant adjustment. The school would always be expected, however, to continue to take advantage of opportunities to improve.

An evaluation of proficient applies to operations characterized by a number of strengths. There are weaknesses, but neither singly nor collectively do these have a significant adverse impact on the student experience. An evaluation of proficient may be arrived at in a number of circumstances. The school may provide a productive student experience, but it may not provide consistent challenge for students. Typically operations will be characterized by strengths, but one or more weaknesses reduce the overall quality of the student experience.

An evaluation of developing applies to operations characterized by weaknesses which require remedial action by the school. Some, if not all, staff responsible for the operation evaluated as inadequate require support from senior managers in planning and carrying out the necessary actions to effect improvement. There may be some strengths, but these are overshadowed by the impact of the weaknesses.

An evaluation of unsatisfactory applies when there are major weaknesses in operation that require immediate remedial action on the part of the school. The student experience is at risk in significant respects. In almost all cases, staff responsible for operations evaluated unsatisfactory will require support from senior managers in planning and carrying out the necessary actions to effect improvement. This may involve working alongside effective peers in or beyond the school.

Charter Schools Division oversight deemed Student Achievement and Educational Performance at the school to be Developing.

Areas of particular strength include: On the measure of Academic Growth Over Time, the school scored above the District average in

English Language Arts. On the measure of Academic Growth Over Time, the school scored within the District average in

Math. On the measure of Academic Growth Over Time, the school’s three year average is above the

District average in Science.

Areas recommended for improvement include: Improve the school’s rating on The School Performance Framework (SPF) which is Watch. Continue with targeted intervention and support so that subgroups meet API Growth Targets.

282

0123456789



II. Governance and Organizational Management

Charter Schools Division oversight deemed Governance and Organizational Management at the school to be Accomplished.

Areas of particular strength include: The collaborative partnership includes formal organizational structures such as weekly planning

meetings between the Principal and Science Center representative, joint classroom walk-throughs, feedback regarding the Science Center Liaisons who work with each grade level.

A school-wide needs assessment initiated by the Principal in collaboration with the staff, has resulted in professional development focused on increasing student achievement through the implementation of essential charter petition components, dual language implementation,

technology, targeted intervention, and Science Center inquiry based learning. The School Site Council actively reviews and monitors school performance and other data to

inform and evaluate decision-making. Document review and stakeholder interview with council members demonstrates the Council’s participation in creating and reviewing the Single plan, and connects regularly with the ELAC committee to review and consider recommendations regarding the progress of English Learners.

The Governing and Operating (G & O) Committee regularly receives input of stakeholders through its membership from parents, School Site Council Members, the California Science Center, School Administration, and an Educational Service Center representative.

Areas recommended for improvement include: It is recommended that the organization increase the frequency of the meetings of the G & O

Committee.

III. Fiscal Operations

Affiliated Charter Schools’ fiscal operations are overseen by Central Budget and the respective Educational Service Center, thus the Charter Schools Division does not provide a rating in this area.

IV. Fulfillment of the Charter’s Educational Program

Charter Schools Division oversight deemed Fulfillment of the Charter’s Educational Program at the school to be Proficient.

Areas of particular strength include: The school has implemented the educational program described in the charter in accordance with

the charter’s mission and vision, including most innovative components. Classroom observation, document review, and stakeholder interview provide evidence that the school and California Science Center have created structures to develop all staff’s baseline knowledge and implementation of Constructivism, California Science Center Inquiry Based Instruction, ProjectBased Learning, Dual Language programs and intervention.

283

0123456789



The school has a professional development team dedicated to transition to Common Core State Standards implementation and the school has been identified as a lab school for upcoming 2014-15 year for other schools to visit to exemplify Common Core State Standards implementation.

Within the dual language program, the school has implemented new support structures such as a parent support group and after school intervention to further strengthen the program and students’ success.

Science Center School teachers work collaboratively with the California Science Center Specialists (Liaisons) to execute three, six to eight week science cycles to deeply explore a concept featuring FOSS Investigations every year. These investigations include lab projects in which every student participates.

Areas noted for improvement include: The school is encouraged to continue examining strategies to increase enrollment in the Dual

Language program at the upper grades. Continue implementing the school’s current focus on calibration of practices for foundational

components of the charter across all classrooms.

Dr. Theo. T. Alexander Jr., Science Cent Loc. Code: 5111CDS Code:

CRITERIA SUMMARYA charter school that has operated for at least four years is eligible for renewal only if the school has satisfied at least one of the following criteria prior to receiving a charter renewal: Attained its Academic Performance Index (API) growth target in the prior year or in two of the last three years, both school wide and for all groups of pupils served by the charter school; ranked 4 to 10 on the API statewide or similar schools rank in the prior year or in two of the last three years both schoolwide and for all groups of pupils served by the charter school (SB 1290). The academic performance of the charter school must be at least equal to the academic performance of the public schools that the charter school pupils would otherwise have been required to attend, as well as the academic performance of the schools in the school district in which the charter school is located, taking into account the composition of pupil population served at the charter school (Ed. Code 47607).

Approval of the Charter for Ednovate High School No. 2

Action Proposed:Staff recommends the approval of the proposed charter for Ednovate High School No. 2 for five (5) years,beginning July 1, 2015 until June 30, 2020, to serve 135 students in grade 9 in its first year of operation and upto 500 students in grades 9-12 by the end of its charter term.

Background:On April 17, 2014, Ednovate High School No. 2 submitted a charter petition application to the Charter SchoolsDivision, which included the number of signatures required under Education Code § 47605(a). A PublicHearing was held on May 13, 2014. The charter petition and supporting documents were reviewed by theCharter Schools Division, the Office of the General Counsel, and other District staff. The 60-day statutorytimeline for Board action on this petition continues until June 16, 2014.

Staff affirms that Ednovate High School No. 2 has met the requirements set forth in Education Code § 47605,based on review and consideration of its charter school petition application.

Ednovate High School No. 2 is proposed to be located in the 90033 ZIP code of the East Los Angeles/BoyleHeights area. This area is served by Educational Service Center East in Board District 2. The school will serve135 students in grade 9 in its first year and expand to serve 500 students in grades 9-12 by 2020. EdnovateHigh School No. 2 has indicated that it intends to request facilities under Proposition 39.

The mission of Ednovate High School No. 2 is to ensure that students will use their college degrees and careersto make a positive multigenerational change. The school’s vision is to close the college graduation gap for firstgeneration and low-income families by giving students a multigenerational purpose for college and career;significantly advancing academic proficiency through a personalized curriculum; and developing specificmindsets that yield success through high school, college and a career in a global economy.

The following core beliefs are interwoven throughout the school’s design: (1) Purpose: Ednovate High SchoolNo. 2 believes that if students are driven by a deep sense of purpose to use their college degrees and theircareers, they will be more likely to persist through college graduation. The school intends for students tograduate from high school seeing themselves as agents for Positive Multigenerational Change (PMC) in theirfamily, community, nation and world. (2) Personalization: Ednovate High School No. 2 believes it cansignificantly advance the academic proficiency and depth of learning in students through a mastery-basedpersonalized college-prep curriculum. The school’s blended learning model is intended to allow for moreefficient use of student and teacher time, creating space for the deep learning that happens with the PMCperformance tasks. (3) Mindsets: Believing in developing the mindsets needed to thrive in and persist throughcollege graduation, the school’s student experiences (face-to-face and online) are designed to intentionallydevelop traits of integrity, entrepreneurship, master and joy.

Ednovate High School No. 2 will implement its own English Learner Master Plan.

Ednovate High School No. 2 will be the second Ednovate school, a charter management organizationestablished by the USC Rossier School of Education. USC Hybrid High School, the CMO’s first site, wasoriginally granted its charter by the Board of Education on December 6, 2011, and opened on September 4,2012. In 2013, USC Hybrid HS achieved a school-wide Base API of 688. Based on CST results, 37% of 9thgraders tested scored proficient in ELA and 21% scored proficient in Math. The school met 6 of 11 AYPCriteria. Since USC Hybrid HS is in its second year of operation, it does not have a School PerformanceFramework classification due to missing 4-year cohort graduation data and first time California High SchoolExit Exam (CAHSEE) data. The school has not yet earned a 2012 Statewide Rank or Similar Schools Rank dueto their limited numbers of years in operation. The 2013 Academic Growth Over Time (AGT) report indicatesthat students tested below their predicted growth in ELA, at predicted growth in General math, and far belowpredicted growth in Algebra 1.

The school has shared internal data which indicate positive trends as the use of an innovative blended learningmodel to monitor individual student progress, the implementation of pre- and quarterly data analysis withindividual student targets, and strategic plan analysis and data conferencing. For example, referencing theirinternal benchmark MAP assessment, Spring 2013 to Spring 2014 Comparison of Percentage of Math,Reading, and Language Cohort Meeting/Exceeding the National Average which reflect 16% growth in Math;21% growth in Reading; and, 26% growth in Language when comparing Spring 2014 to Spring 2013 results.Additionally the Percentage of Cohort students meeting the 2014 Growth Target has increased. The CSD willcontinue to monitor the school’s progress as it implements Common Core.

At the May 13, 2014 LAUSD Board of Education meeting, a material revision was approved to reflect changesto the school’s size, schedule, and instructional model; the governance structure; job descriptions and positions;capacity; and revisions to the student discipline policy and procedures. The Governing Board and schoolleadership responded to a need to enhance its student behavior and discipline policies and practices, which arealigned to the District’s Positive School Climate and Discipline Foundation policies. From August throughOctober, the school suspended 56 students for 64 days, accounting for approximately 70% of the suspensionnumbers for the year. Subsequently, however, the suspension rate has declined steadily: 25 students weresuspended for a total of 27 days in the ensuing six months. As the LAUSD Board of Education noted at itsMay 13, 2014 meeting, the organization has reflected on its practices and made important improvements, whichthe CSD will continue to monitor.

Ednovate High School No. 2 will make every effort to recruit a diverse student population in the target area ofEast Los Angeles. For example, the demographics of Garfield High School, a District school within a two-mileradius of the proposed charter school location, are 98% Latino, 1% African American, 1% White, 18% EnglishLearners, and 100% Free and Reduced Lunch (CDE). Ednovate High School No. 2 indicates in its petition thatthe charter school will recruit students of various racial and ethnic groups in the East Los Angeles/BoyleHeights area so as to achieve a balance that is reflective of the general population residing within the territorialjurisdiction of LAUSD. The school will maintain an accurate accounting of the ethnic and racial balance ofstudents enrolled in the school. It will also keep on file documentation of the efforts the school makes toachieve racial and ethnic balance. Outreach meetings will be held in several locations of the target area in orderto ensure all students in the area have an opportunity to attend the school. Recruitment materials will bedeveloped in English and Spanish in order to reach the limited English proficient populations that exist in thearea. Marketing will occur in a variety of community settings including community groups, agencies,neighborhood youth organizations, social service providers, churches, grocery stores and public libraries thatserve the various racial, ethnic and interest groups represented in the district.

0123456789



Current members of the Ednovate, Inc. Board of Directors completed questionnaires regarding conflicts ofinterest. A due diligence review of the Ednovate High School No. 2 school executives, is being performed bythe Office of the Inspector General (OIG). Staff will inform the Board of any material negative findings andtake appropriate action.

If approved, the Ednovate High School No. 2 charter will have a five-year term, beginning July 1, 2015 untilJune 30, 2020. As part of its oversight responsibility, the Charter Schools Division will perform ongoingoversight of the charter school throughout the term of the charter.


Expected Outcomes:Ednovate High School No. 2 is expected to operate its charter school in a manner consistent with local, state,and federal ordinances, laws and regulations, and the terms and conditions set forth in its petition. Themeasurable pupil outcomes and method by which pupil progress toward outcomes will be measured as are setforth in the petition.

Board Options and Consequences:“Yes” - The approval of the charter petition for Ednovate High School No. 2 would grant its Board of Directorsthe right to operate the charter school under the terms of the approved charter for a five (5) year period,beginning July 1, 2015 until June 30, 2020.

“No” - The denial of the charter petition would result in the Board of Directors for Ednovate High School No. 2being prohibited from opening the charter school, unless Ednovate High School No. 2 appeals the denial andthe charter is granted by the Los Angeles County Board of Education or the California State Board ofEducation. This Board Report 480 - 13/14 and accompanying documents shall constitute the Board ofEducation’s adopted written findings of fact for the denial of Ednovate High School No. 2’s petition.


Budget Impact:State income and various other income sources to the District are reduced when current District students enrollat a charter school, and comparable or offsetting expenditure savings may not occur in such cases. UnderEducation Code section 47604(c), a school district that grants a charter to a charter school to be operated by, oras, a nonprofit public benefit corporation is not held liable for the charter school’s debts or obligations as longas the school district complies with all oversight responsibilities. The District will continue to have monitoringand oversight responsibility for charter school finances, as specified in the Charter Schools Act. Anymodifications to the charter school’s petition or operations with significant financial implications would requireDistrict approval prior to implementation. Petition approval is also contingent upon adequate liability insurancecoverage.

Ednovate High School No. 2 has selected LAUSD SELPA Option 2. Under the current LAUSD SELPAOption 2 Special Education MOU, Charter School’s fair share contribution for special education for the firstyear of the charter petition will be 20% of the District’s general fund contribution rate per ADA for that fiscalyear, which will be paid from the Charter School’s funds from the Local Control Funding Formula. The ratewill increase by 5% for each subsequent fiscal year until the applicable percentage reaches 35%. For theremainder of the Charter School’s petition period, the rate will remain at 35% of the District’s general fundLos Angeles Unified School District Printed on 5/30/2014Page 3 of 4


302

0123456789



remainder of the Charter School’s petition period, the rate will remain at 35% of the District’s general fundcontribution rate for each fiscal year. At the conclusion of each fiscal year during the entire charter petitionperiod, any unspent special education revenues shall be returned to the LAUSD SELPA.

Issues and Analysis:Prior to the Board approval of the charter petition, the school must have resolved any pending issues in thereview process and submitted any requested material including a signed Special Education Memorandum ofUnderstanding (MOU). Should Ednovate High School No. 2 not comply with this requirement, this Board itemwill be withdrawn from the agenda.

Background/Context about the Petitioner: Ednovate, Inc., the charter management organization established by the USC Rossier School of Education, will oversee Ednovate High School No. 2 and currently oversees USC Hybrid High School (USC Hybrid). In the last year, USC Hybrid underwent changes in Board membership and in instructional and operational staff, including the addition of new Board members and the hiring of CEO/Executive Director Oliver Sicat from Chicago Public Schools.

Board of Directors: Karen Symms Gallagher Dr. Noemi Donoso Dr. Maria Ott David Rattray Elliot Sainer

Description of Mission: The mission of Ednovate High School No. 2 is to ensure that students will use their college degrees and careers to make a positive multigenerational change.

Description of Vision: Ednovate High School No. 2’s vision is to close the college graduation gap for first generation and low-income families by giving students a multigenerational purpose for college and career, significantly advancing academic proficiency through a personalized curriculum, and developing specific mindsets that yield success. The school aims to combine a traditional “no excuses” model with a blended learning model that embeds technology across the curriculum. The goal is to develop self-motivated, disciplined learners who are prepared to graduate from top four-year universities and who will use their college degrees and careers to effect positive multigenerational change.

Source of Core Money: Ednovate High School No. 2 will receive funding from state and federal governments and from the Broad Foundation.

3-5 Top Leaders: Oliver Sicat, Jessica Cohn, Reid Phillips, Karen Symms Gallagher. Other charter schools currently operated by the Petitioner: USC Hybrid High School. Other charter petitions pending before LAUSD: None. Submission of this charter application to other jurisdiction(s) for approval: Not applicable. Innovative elements of the charter that could be considered “best practices” and replicated

by other schools: Ednovate High School No. 2 will use a highly personalized model of blended learning to increase the academic proficiency and depth of learning in our students, increasing the number of students who graduate from college. Other promising practices include the school’s focus on developing the mindsets needed to thrive and persist in college, as well as a focus on creating positive multigenerational change.

Approval of the Conversion Petition of Ralph Waldo Emerson Middle School to be an Affiliated CharterSchool

Action Proposed:Staff recommends the approval of the conversion petition of Ralph Waldo Emerson Middle School to anaffiliated charter school for five (5) years, beginning July 1, 2014 until June 30, 2019, to serve 600 students ingrades 6-8 in year 1 and up to 850 students in grades 6-8 by the end of its charter term. The school will operateunder the new name, Emerson Community Charter School.

Background:On January 16, 2014, Emerson Middle School submitted a completed charter petition application to the CharterSchools Division (CSD) that included the number of signatures required under the Education Code section47605 (a)(2). On April 25, 2014, the petitioners submitted the charter with the CSD required EducationalService Center Certification form. A Public Hearing was held on May 13, 2014. The petition is to establish anaffiliated, conversion charter school. The charter petition and supporting documents were reviewed by theCharter Schools Division, the Office of the General Counsel, and other District staff.

Staff affirms that Emerson Middle School met the requirements as set forth in the Education Code § 47605,based on the review and consideration of its charter school petition.

The school is located at 1650 Selby Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90024 in Westwood. This area is currentlyserved by Educational Service Center West (ESCW), which is fully supportive of its petition to become anaffiliate charter school, and in Board District 4.

The school will serve 600 students in grades 6-8 in year 1 and expand to serve 850 students in grades 6-8 by2019. Emerson Middle School currently serves 592 students in grades 6-8 with the following demographicbreakdown: 55% Latino; 19% White; 18% African American; 5% Asian; and 2% Filipino.

As a proposed conversion affiliated school, Emerson Middle School submitted signatures of at least 50% of thepermanent teachers per state law. Eleven (11) signatures were required and a total of seventeen (17) weresubmitted. This represents 77.3% of Emerson Middle School’s permanent teachers. The administrative staff ofthe ESC-West has indicated full support of this petition.

Emerson Middle School has a current API of 728, and 43.6% of its students scored proficient/advanced inEnglish Language Arts and 32.7% scored proficient/advanced in Mathematics. The school went from a“Service and Support” rating on the School Performance Framework in 2012-13 to a “Focus” rating in 2013-14, with the largest drops seen in Algebra I data. According to the school, in previous years, some eligiblestudents were placed in Algebra Readiness instead of Algebra I. In 2012-13, students were appropriatelyplaced, resulting in a “correction year” in Algebra I scores, which is reflected in the 2013-14 SPF and AGTscores. However, as part of its improvement plan, the school is working to:



315

0123456789



1. Increase attendance rates as outlined in the Emerson attendance plan.2. More accurately place students in math to stabilize and increase test scores and student opportunity.3. Increase teacher performance through observation, professional development and vertical teaming.4. Continue to lower the suspension rate and maintain it below 2%, in keeping with the significant

reduction over the past two years.5. Focus on Common Core strategies that increase EL access to core curriculum. This includes a focus on

writing across the content, academic language, and active reading as defined in the charter petition.6. Build stronger parent engagement through charter academies.7. Continue to develop and adhere to Common Core Waiver Plan as developed jointly with Marina Del

Rey MS and Audubon MS.8. Replace leaving teachers with highly competent and motivated teachers that buy into the charter model

and philosophy.

Moreover, the school will be receiving additional supports from the Intensive Support and Innovation Centerbeginning in the fall.

As District employees, the administrators, site governing council, and all employees will comply with Districtpolicies regarding ethics and conflicts of interest. The school will follow the District’s EL Master Plan.Emerson Middle School will follow all District policies and procedures related to Special Education.

As part of the LAUSD’s fiduciary responsibility, the Charter Schools Division will perform ongoing oversightof the provisions of the charter.


Expected Outcomes:Emerson Community Charter School is expected to operate its charter school in a manner consistent with local,state, and federal ordinances, laws, and regulations, District policy regarding affiliated charter schools, andterms and conditions set forth in its petition. The benchmarks for achievement are set forth in the petition.

Board Options and Consequences:“Yes” - The approval of the charter petition for Emerson Community Charter School would establish anaffiliated charter school under the authority of the LAUSD Board of Education under the terms of the approvedpetition for a five (5) year period, beginning July 1, 2014 to June 30, 2019.

“No” - The denial of the charter petition would result in the school site remaining as a traditional school of theDistrict.


Budget Impact:The petition is to establish an affiliated charter school. As an affiliated charter school, revenues will be receivedby LAUSD on their behalf. Thus, the school becomes a locally-funded charter school. The District willallocate school resources in the same manner as it does for non-charter schools except as otherwise specified instatute and in the District Affiliated Policy Bulletin 5439.0.

Action Proposed:Staff recommends the approval of the proposed charter for Public Policy Charter School for five (5) years,beginning July 1, 2015 until June 30, 2020, to serve 300 students in grades 5-6 in year 1 and up to 600 studentsin grades 5-8 by the end of its charter term.

Public Policy Charter School indicates in its petition thatthe charter school will recruit students of various racial and ethnic groups in the Central Los Angeles area so asto achieve a balance that is reflective of the general population residing within the territorial jurisdiction ofLAUSD. The school will maintain an accurate accounting of the ethnic and racial balance of students enrolledin the school. It will also keep on file documentation of the efforts the school makes to achieve racial and ethnicbalance.

Staff will inform the Board of any material negative findings andtake appropriate action.

If approved, the Public Policy Charter School charter will have a five-year term, beginning July 1, 2015 untilJune 30, 2020. As part of its oversight responsibility, the Charter Schools Division will perform ongoingoversight of the charter school throughout the term of the charter.

Policy Implications:



328

0123456789



There are no policy implications at this time.

Budget Impact:State income and various other income sources to the District are reduced when current District students enrollat a charter school, and comparable or offsetting expenditure savings may not occur in such cases. UnderEducation Code § 47604(c), a school district that grants a charter to a charter school to be operated by, or as, anonprofit public benefit corporation is not held liable for the charter school’s debts or obligations as long as theschool district complies with all oversight responsibilities. The District will continue to have monitoring andoversight responsibility for charter school finances, as specified in the Charter Schools Act. Any modificationsto the charter school’s petition or operations with significant financial implications would require Districtapproval prior to implementation. Petition approval is also contingent upon adequate liability insurancecoverage.

Public Policy Charter School has selected LAUSD SELPA Option 2. Under the current LAUSD SELPAOption 2 Special Education MOU, Charter School’s fair share contribution for special education for the firstyear of the charter petition will be 20% of the District’s general fund contribution rate per ADA for that fiscalyear, which will be paid from the Charter School’s funds from the Local Control Funding Formula. The ratewill increase by 5% for each subsequent fiscal year until the applicable percentage reaches 35%. For theremainder of the Charter School’s petition period, the rate will remain at 35% of the District’s general fundcontribution rate for each fiscal year. At the conclusion of each fiscal year during the entire charter petitionperiod, any unspent special education revenues shall be returned to the LAUSD SELPA.

Issues and Analysis:Prior to the Board approval of the charter petition, the school must have resolved any pending issues in thereview process and submitted any requested material including a signed Special Education Memorandum ofUnderstanding (MOU). Should Public Policy Charter School not comply with this requirement, this Boarditem will be withdrawn from the agenda.

Background/Context about the Petitioner: The Public Policy Charter School Board of Directors and petitioners do not operate any sister charters. However, many have extensive experience with charter schools.

Board of Directors: Laura BaronJudy BurtonAna CamposSteven HolguinEmilio Pack, ED. D.Mayra Rivas Rohit Shukla

Description of Mission: Public Policy Charter School’s mission is to provide a safe, supportive, and dynamic learning environment that delivers a rigorous and engaging, college preparatory curriculum. Through the study of public policy, learners will be equipped with the knowledge, skills, and fortitude to advocate for themselves and their community through leadership and action.

Description of Vision: Public Policy Charter School’s vision is for alumni to earn college degrees, and advance to fulfilling careers where they promote economic development and social justice to impact public policy in a manner that benefits society.

Source of Core Money: Public Policy Charter School will apply for the Walton grant and the Public Charter Schools Grant in addition to selling revenues for startup costs until the Advanced Apportionment disbursement if received in October 2015.

3-5 Top Leaders: Sonali Tucker, Lead Petition and Executive DirectorDonna Jacobson, Lead Petitioner and PrincipalLaura Baron, Board PresidentJudy Burton, Board Member

Other charter schools currently operated by the Petitioner: None

Other charter petitions pending before LAUSD: None. Submission of this charter application to other jurisdiction(s) for approval: Not applicable Innovative elements of the charter that could be considered “best practices” and replicated by

other schools: Students will be exposed to the different aspects and arenas for public policy, in all fields, and work with community mentors to gain outside the classroom learning experiences. In addition to the public policy focus, STEM curriculum will be embedded in the instructional program to include Art and Design (from STEM to STEAM). Vocabulary development is a critical area of reading instruction for Public Policy’s student population. Professional development will emphasize explicit strategies such as “critical literacy”. The learners will be involved as active participants in the reading process through the analysis of the author’s purpose. Public Policy will also hold professional development sessions on best practices for conducting peer visitations and for providing feedback and support.

Approval of the Charter for Renaissance Arts Academy K-12

Action Proposed:Staff recommends the approval of the charter petition for Renaissance Arts Academy K-12 for five (5) years,beginning July 1, 2015 until June 30, 2020, to serve 350 students in grades K-12 in year 1 and up to 600students in grades K-12 by the end of its charter term.

Background:Renaissance Arts Academy K-12 submitted a charter petition application to the Charter Schools Division,which included the number of signatures required under Education Code § 47605(a). A Public Hearing washeld on May 13, 2014. The charter petition and supporting documents were reviewed by the Charter SchoolsDivision, the Office of the General Counsel, and other District staff.

Staff affirms that Renaissance Arts Academy K-12 has met the requirements set forth in Education Code §47605, based on review and consideration of its charter school petition application.

Renaissance Arts Academy K-12 is proposed to be located in Los Angeles, CA 90041. This area is served byEducational Service Center East in Board District 5. The school will serve 350 students in grades K-12 in itsfirst year of operation and expand to serve 600 students in grades K-12 by 2020. Renaissance Arts Academy K-12 has indicated that it intends to obtain a private site for its facility.

The vision of Renaissance Arts Academy K-12 is for its students to graduate with viable post-secondaryopportunities to succeed in college, career and community. Graduates will synthesize intellectual curiosity,academic discernment, and artistic discipline in the creation of a rational, inclusive and hopeful future for all.

Through a rigorous and balanced curriculum, Renaissance Arts Academy K-12’s mission is to cultivateautonomous scholarship in an ensemble setting by providing an integrated classical curriculum focused onmusic and performing arts disciplines. Renaissance Arts Academy K-12 will welcome students from allbackgrounds, developing 21 st century Renaissance citizens through rigorous academic inquiry, collaborativesmall-group instruction, and professionally guided arts training.

Renaissance Arts Academy K-12 will implement its own English Learner Master Plan.

This proposed K-12 school would be the second charter school operated by Renaissance Arts Academy, anonprofit public benefit corporation, currently operates Renaissance Arts Academy (RenArts). RenArts serves370 students in grades 6-12 (58% Latino, 25% White, 8% African American, 66% Students Eligible for Freeand Reduced Meals, 4% English Learners, 12% RFEPs, and 9% Students with Disabilities) in the samegeographic area. In 2013, RenArts was honored as a California Distinguished School, received the state’sExemplary Arts Program Award, and was recognized by the USC Center on Educational Governance as one ofthe Top 10 Charter High Schools in California. The school earned a 2013 Growth API of 897, a 2012 StateRanking of 9, and a 2012 Similar Schools Ranking of 8, and met its 2013 API Growth Targets schoolwide and



342

0123456789



for all numerically significant subgroups.

Although the District has not classified RenArts on the School Performance Framework (SPF) this past year, itsperformance in the areas for which it has data is comparable to schools that are classified as “Excelling,” thetop tier of schools on the SPF. RenArts incorporates Integrated Math into their curriculum in lieu of Algebraand therefore does not have the Algebra I metrics required to receive an SPF classification. RenArts offers anaccelerated and integrated math curriculum focusing on connections within mathematics and to other contentareas. Mathematics learning begins in the 6 th and 7 th grades and proceeds through Calculus, which more thansufficiently prepares students to meet the rigors of Integrated Math in the eighth grade. Based on the SPFmetrics for which scores were available, the middle school portion of the school received 4 or 5 points (out of5) in every SPF status metric except attendance (3 points). The high school portion of the school received 4 or5 points in every SPF status metric for which it had sufficient data, including the maximum 5 points for its100% 4-year cohort graduation rate and 97% 1 st Time CAHSEE pass rate. Renaissance Arts Academy seeks toreplicate this successful school model and extend its benefits to students in the proposed Renaissance ArtsAcademy K-12 charter school.

Renaissance Arts Academy K-12 will make every effort to recruit a diverse student population. For example,the demographics of Eagle Rock Elementary School, a District school within a two-mile radius of the proposedcharter school location, are 50% Latino, 19% Filipino, 17% White, 10% English Learners, and 55% Free andReduced Lunch (CDE). Renaissance Arts Academy K-12 indicates in its petition that the charter school willrecruit students of various racial and ethnic groups in the Los Angeles, CA 90041 area and beyond so as toachieve a balance that is reflective of the general population residing within the territorial jurisdiction ofLAUSD. At its current 6-12 school RenArts serves a diverse population from 53 zip codes. The school willmaintain an accurate accounting of the ethnic and racial balance of students enrolled in the school. It will alsokeep on file documentation of the efforts the school makes to achieve racial and ethnic balance.

Current members of the Renaissance Arts K-12 Board of Directors completed questionnaires regardingconflicts of interest. A January 2013 due diligence review of the proposed Executive Director (on-site financialmanager) and Academic Director performed by the Office of the Inspector General revealed no materialnegative findings. An update review is being performed by the Office of the Inspector General (OIG). Staffwill inform the Board of any material negative findings and take appropriate action.

If approved, the Renaissance Arts Academy K-12 charter will have a five-year term, beginning July 1, 2015until June 30, 2020. As part of its oversight responsibility, the Charter Schools Division will perform ongoingoversight of the charter school throughout the term of the charter.


Expected Outcomes:Renaissance Arts K-12 is expected to operate its charter school in a manner consistent with local, state, andfederal ordinances, laws and regulations, and the terms and conditions set forth in its petition. The measurablepupil outcomes and method by which pupil progress toward outcomes will be measured are set forth in thepetition.

Board Options and Consequences:“Yes” - The approval of the charter petition for Renaissance Arts Academy K-12 would grant its Board ofDirectors the right to operate the charter school under the terms of the approved charter for a five (5) year



343

0123456789



period, beginning July 1, 2015 until June 30, 2020.

“No” - The denial of the charter petition would result in the Board of Directors for Renaissance Arts AcademyK-12 being prohibited from opening the charter school, unless Renaissance Arts Academy K-12 appeals thedenial and the charter is granted by the Los Angeles County Board of Education or the California State Boardof Education. This Board Report 483 - 13/14 and accompanying documents shall constitute the Board ofEducation’s adopted written findings of fact for the denial of Renaissance Arts Academy K-12’s petition.


Budget Impact:State income and various other income sources to the District are reduced when current District students enrollat a charter school, and comparable or offsetting expenditure savings may not occur in such cases. UnderEducation Code § 47604(c), a school district that grants a charter to a charter school to be operated by, or as, anonprofit public benefit corporation is not held liable for the charter school’s debts or obligations as long as theschool district complies with all oversight responsibilities. The District will continue to have monitoring andoversight responsibility for charter school finances, as specified in the Charter Schools Act. Any modificationsto the charter school’s petition or operations with significant financial implications would require Districtapproval prior to implementation. Petition approval is also contingent upon adequate liability insurancecoverage.

Renaissance Arts Academy K-12 has selected LAUSD SELPA Option 2. Under the current LAUSD SELPAOption 2 Special Education MOU, Charter School’s fair share contribution for special education for the firstyear of the charter petition will be 20% of the District’s general fund contribution rate per ADA for that fiscalyear, which will be paid from the Charter School’s funds from the Local Control Funding Formula. The ratewill increase by 5% for each subsequent fiscal year until the applicable percentage reaches 35%. For theremainder of the Charter School’s petition period, the rate will remain at 35% of the District’s general fundcontribution rate for each fiscal year. At the conclusion of each fiscal year during the entire charter petitionperiod, any unspent special education revenues shall be returned to the LAUSD SELPA.

Issues and Analysis:Prior to the Board approval of the charter petition, the school must have resolved any pending issues in thereview process and submitted any requested material including a signed Special Education Memorandum ofUnderstanding (MOU). Should Renaissance Arts Academy K-12 not comply with this requirement, this Boarditem will be withdrawn from the agenda.

RENAISSANCE ARTS ACADEMY K-12RECOMMENDATION: APPROVAL


The Charter Schools Division recommends Board of Education approval of Renaissance Arts Academy K-12 based on the findings from the Division’s rigorous and comprehensive charter review process for elements 1-16. These elements were reviewed by the Superintendent’s Advisory Committee and the Office of the General Counsel.




Lead Petitioner Applying for Charter: PK Candaux Grades Served: K-12 Projected Start Date: July 1, 2015 Instructional Focus: Renaissance Arts Academy K-12’s instructional focus is on utilizing the physical,

intellectual, and aesthetic disciplines of music and movement to furnish multiple points of entry into core academic content and to create alternate gateways to understanding and communication for all students. The program will provide high-level performing arts training for students at every level of development, bringing together a cross-section of L.A.’s diverse ethnic, economic and cultural populations in a focused community designed to provide intellectual challenge and encourage disciplined development of creative skills. Through collaborative examination of seminal sources of the Western intellectual and artistic traditions, students will gain a sense of ownership and agency that further informs their analyses and expressions of their own cultural backgrounds and experiences.

Number of Students: Renaissance Arts Academy K-12 expects to enroll 350 K-12 students in the first year. When fully enrolled, it estimates serving approximately 600 students in grades K-12.

Location Address or Target Neighborhood: Los Angeles, CA 90041. Facility Status/Location: Facility to be determined. LAUSD Planned Facilities in the Area: None. Board Policy Considerations (Low API, Overcrowded areas): See table below.

Revocation Hearing of Urban Village Middle School: Adoption of the Facts in Support of Revocationand Issuance of Final Decision to Revoke the Charter Pursuant to Education Code § 47607(e) [PublicHearing]

Action Proposed:Staff recommends that, upon Board consideration of the evidence presented at the public hearing, the Board ofEducation adopt the Facts in Support of Revocation for Urban Village Middle School and issue the FinalDecision to Revoke the Charter pursuant to California Education Code § 47607(e). Staff also recommends thatthe Charter Schools Division (CSD) be authorized to send and receive any documents related to the Facts inSupport of Revocation and Final Decision to Revoke the Charter.

Background:Urban Village Middle School (“Urban Village”) was approved by the Board of Education on February 12,2013. The school opened in August 2013 and currently serves 81 students (79% African American and 21%Latino) in grades 6-8 on a private site located at 5753 Rodeo Road, Los Angeles, CA 90016 in Board District 1and Educational Service Center West.

Pursuant to California Education Code § 47607(c)(1), the authorizing entity may revoke the charter of a charterschool if it finds, through a showing of substantial evidence, that the charter school did any of the following:

(a) Committed a material violation of any of the conditions, standards, or procedures set forth in the charter.

(b) Failed to meet or pursue any of the pupil outcomes identified in the charter.

(c) Failed to meet generally accepted accounting principles, or engaged in fiscal mismanagement.

(d) Violated any provision of the law.

Education Code § 47607(d) requires the authorizing entity to notify the charter school of any violation and givethe charter school a reasonable opportunity to remedy the violation prior to revocation.

Education Code § 47607(e) provides: “Before revoking a charter for failure to remedy a violation pursuant tosubdivision (d), and after expiration of the school’s reasonable opportunity to remedy without successfullyremedying the violation, the chartering authority shall provide a written notice of intent to revoke and notice offacts in support of revocation to the charter school. No later than 30 days after providing the notice of intent torevoke a charter, the chartering authority shall hold a public hearing, in the normal course of business, on theissue of whether evidence exists to revoke the charter. No later than 30 days after the public hearing, thechartering authority shall issue a final decision to revoke or decline to revoke the charter, unless the charteringauthority and the charter school agree to extend the issuance of the decision by an additional 30 days.

authority and the charter school agree to extend the issuance of the decision by an additional 30 days. Thechartering authority shall not revoke a charter, unless it makes written factual findings supported by substantialevidence, specific to the charter school, that support its findings.”

At a public hearing held on April 8, 2014, the Board of Education authorized the District to issue a Notice ofViolations to Urban Village Middle School, providing the school with a reasonable opportunity to remedy theviolations by April 30, 2014. The District received Urban Village’s response to the District’s Notice ofViolations on April 30, 2014, which included Urban Village’s statements regarding remedies to the violations.

District staff carefully and thoroughly reviewed Urban Village’s April 30, 2014 response to the Notice ofViolations. As set forth in the attached Facts in Support of Revocation documenting the entire revocationprocess and evidence, although the school provided or attempted to provide some remedies, the school hasfailed to refute or remedy all of the violations and continues to fail to comply with legal obligations and itscharter. The school and its Governing Board have demonstrated a lack of capacity to operate the schooleffectively and in compliance with applicable laws, regulations, and the terms of the school’s charter.

At a public hearing held on May 13, 2014, the Board of Education approved the issuance of the Notice of Intentto Revoke and Notice of Facts in Support of Revocation. There were no representatives or speakers on behalfof Urban Village at the hearing. The Notice of Intent to Revoke and Notice of Facts in Support of Revocationset forth the grounds for revocation:

(1) Violations of Provisions of Law (EC §47607(c)(1)(D))

(2) Material Violation of any Conditions, Standards, or Procedures set forth in the Charter (EC §47607(c)(1)(A))

(3) Fiscal Mismanagement (EC §47607(c)(1)(C))

The Board of Education is required to consider increases in pupil academic achievement for all groups of pupilsserved at the charter school as the most important factor in determining whether to revoke a charter. (Ed. Code§ 47607(c)(2).) Urban Village is in its first year of operation and does not have CST or other state standardizedtesting data available for consideration. Urban Village has failed, however, to meet several key legalobligations directly related to its academic program and student achievement, including but not limited to itsfailure to administer the CELDT for its English Learners during the fall testing window, failure to assignappropriately credentialed teachers to core courses, and failure to provide special education services andsupports for its students with disabilities as provided in the students’ IEPs.

The attached Facts in Support of Revocation and attachments contain the substantial evidence necessary tosupport revocation of Urban Village Middle School. All supporting documentation and correspondencesubmitted by both the District and Urban Village are included therein.

Staff shall submit to the Board any further documentation or evidence received from or related to UrbanVillage Middle School for the Board’s consideration.

Expected Outcomes:If the Board finds substantial evidence exists to revoke the charter and adopts the Facts in Support ofRevocation, the Board will approve the issuance of the Final Decision to Revoke. Urban Village MiddleSchool’s charter will thereafter be revoked. Urban Village Middle School may appeal the revocation to the LosAngeles County Board of Education (LACBOE) within 30 days of receipt of the Final Decision to Revoke theLos Angeles Unified School District Printed on 5/30/2014Page 2 of 3


356

0123456789



Angeles County Board of Education (LACBOE) within 30 days of receipt of the Final Decision to Revoke thecharter. If LACBOE does not issue a decision within 90 days of the appeal or upholds the authorizing entity’srevocation, Urban Village Middle School may appeal the revocation to the State Board of Education. Shouldthe Board revoke the charter of Urban Village based on violations of law and fiscal mismanagement, UrbanVillage will not continue to qualify as a charter school for funding and for all other purposes during thependency of an appeal. (Ed. Code, section 47607(i))

Board Options and Consequences:“Yes” - The Board of Education adopts the Facts in Support of Revocation and approves the issuance of theFinal Decision to Revoke Urban Village Middle School. Board directs Charter Schools Division staff to issuethe Final Decision to Revoke and Facts in Support of Revocation to Urban Village Middle School.

“No” - Facts in Support of Revocation and Final Decision to Revoke will not be approved or issued. The formalrevocation process for Urban Village Middle School will be terminated and the school may continue to operateas a charter school under the terms and conditions set forth in its approved charter.


Budget Impact:The budget impact will be dependent on the resolution of revocation proceedings.

(1) Amend the Facilities Services Division Strategic Execution Plan (“FSD-SEP”) to allocate $20.9 Millionof Measure Y funds to prepay a portion of the Certificate of Participation (“COPs”) issuance used forthe already-defined Cafeteria Management System (“CMS”) project. The prepayment will be fundedfrom the School Upgrade Program (“SUP”) Category of Need for modernizing and repairing schoolcafeterias; and

(2) Allocate $12.7 Million of Measure Y funds from the Unallocated SUP Category of Need to theTechnology and Infrastructure and Systems Upgrades Category of Need in the Information TechnologyDivision SEP ("ITD-SEP"), which will be used, in turn, to defease a portion of the Certificate ofParticipation (“COPs”) issuance used for the already-defined Integrated Student Information System(“ISIS”) project; and

Delegate authorization to the Chief Financial Officer, or her designee, to take any and all necessary actions tocomplete the defeasance of the debt service payments of 2007 COPs, Series A attributable to the ISIS projectand prepay the 2009 COPs, Series A attributable to the CMS project. The above-identified further allocationsfor these COPs defeasances and/or prepayments will come from the new general obligation debt issuance that isexpected to be concluded this summer.

Background:On August 31, 2010, the Board of Education approved an amendment to the New Construction SEP that,among other actions, allocated bond funds to pay for a portion of the COPs debt services for the ISIS and CMSprojects (BOE #33-10/11). At the time, the District’s bond counsel advised that bond funds could only be usedfor portions of the COPs debt service payments through Fiscal Year 2013-14. Now that this four year fiscalperiod is ending, bond counsel advises that the District may fund the final four fiscal years of COPs debtservice payments attributable to ISIS and the full prepayment of the debt service payments attributable to CMS.

The purpose of this Board action is to authorize the defeasance and/or prepayment of the remaining outstandingbalances of the 2007 COPs, Series A attributable to ISIS and the 2009 COPs, Series A attributable to CMS,using funds from the new general obligation issuance expected to be completed this summer. Portions of thosedebt issuances not attributable to ISIS or CMS will continue to be paid by the General Fund and/or unspentproject funds, as the underlying projects are not eligible to be funded from bond funds.

·· ISIS COPs Defeasance. With respect to the ISIS portion of the debt issuance, a total of $16.1 Million ofremaining gross debt service payments are due from Fiscal Year 2014-15 through Fiscal Year 2017-18.This amount will be reduced to approximately $12.7 Million at the time of the final debt servicepayment with the release of cash from the COPs debt service fund. Should this Board action be



373

0123456789



approved, $12.7 Million of bond proceeds would be used to defease the remaining ISIS debt servicepayments, thereby providing an equivalent amount of General Fund savings over a three-and-a-half-year period.

·· CMS COPs Prepayment. Under the terms of the 2009 COPs, Series A transaction, which funded theCMS and Newman Nutrition Center projects, the District may pay off the remaining balance of theCOPs as of October 1, 2014. In order to prepay the CMS portion of the 2009 COPs, staff isrecommending allocation of approximately $20.9 Million of additional bond funds. This will providean estimated $4.1 Million in annual General Fund savings over a five-year period, through Fiscal Year2019-2020.

Expected Outcomes:The further allocation of approximately $20.9 Million and $12.7 Million in bond funds, respectively, to defeaseand/or prepay a portion of each of the 2007 COPs, Series A and 2009 COPs, Series A debt issuances. This willachieve General Fund debt service savings of $35.7 Million over the next four-to-five fiscal year period.

Board Options and Consequences:If this request is approved, a total of $33.6 Million in Measure Y funds will be applied to reduce General Funddebt serve costs and thereby reduce encroachment on the General Fund from capital projects. If this action isnot approved, additional resources from the General Fund will need to be identified to continue to make debtservice payments for the ISIS portion of the 2007 COPs, Series A (through Fiscal Year 2017-18) and the CMSportion of the 2009 COPs, Series A (through Fiscal Year 2019-2020.)

Policy Implications:The defeasance and/or prepayment of portions of the 2007 COPs, Series A and 2009 COPs Series A is incompliance with the District’s Debt Management Policy - which specifies that the District’s General Fundshould be the funding source of last resort for capital projects.

Budget Impact:This action will lead to the further allocation of $33.6 Million of Measure Y funds to defease and/or prepay aportion of each of the 2007 COPs, Series A and 2009 COPs, Series A debt issuances. Approximately $20.9Million will come from the allocation identified in the SUP to modernize and repair school cafeterias in theFSD-SEP. $12.7 Million will be transferred from the Unallocated SUP Category of Need to TechnologyInfrastructure and System Upgrades in the ITD-SEP, which will be used, in turn, to defease the ISIS COPs.This action will achieve General Fund debt service savings of $35.7 Million over the next four-to-five fiscalyear period.

Naming of Gerald A. Lawson Academy of the Arts, Mathematics and Science

Action Proposed:Approve the naming of Gerald A. Lawson Academy of the Arts, Mathematics and Science to honor the life and

technological contributions of Gerald A. Lawson.

·· The current campus school name is South Region Elementary School #11.

·· The new campus school name will be: Gerald A. Lawson Academy of the Arts, Mathematics andScience.

·· The school is located in Board District 1 and Educational Service Center West.

Background:Gerald A. Lawson was born in a housing project in Jamaica and grew up the son of a longshoreman and city

employee. The family migrated to New York on December 1, 1940. Throughout his childhood, his parents

encouraged his intellectual pursuits and were determined to assist their son achieve academically. This was

their unwavering focus in spite of the many obstacles they faced.

Upon his graduation from high school, Gerald Lawson attended both Queens College and the City College of

New York. Although he did not complete his degree, he was a self-taught engineer. In the early 1970’s, Mr.

Lawson began working at Fairchild, a semiconductor company in the Silicon Valley, as a roving design

consultant. During his tenure at Fairchild, he invented a coin-operated arcade game called Demolition Derby.

At the onset of the computer and video game industries, Gerald A. Lawson was an innovator. After inventing

Demolition Derby, Mr. Lawson was placed in charge of Fairchild’s video game division. He and his team

developed the first cartridge-based video game. This allowed for different game programs to be inserted into

the gaming console one at a time without damaging the computer’s semiconductors. As a result, the company

was able to sell individual games separately. This business model revolutionized the gaming industry and is

still in use today.

In addition, Gerald Lawson was a member of a hobbyist group known as the Homebrew Computer Club. At

the beginning of his membership, he was the only African-American member. Other notable Homebrew

Computer Club members included Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, who later founded Apple Computers.

Mr. Lawson was honored posthumously at the International Game Developers Association in February 2012

for his contributions to the gaming industry.

FY 2015 OIG ANNUAL WORK PLAN PAGE 2

INTERNAL AUDIT UNIT

The Internal Audit Unit has primary responsibility for conducting performance audits of programs, processes, functions and systems District‐wide. Audits are done mainly to evaluate the efficiency and effectiveness of District operations, to determine if activities are being carried out in accordance with District policies, applicable laws and regulations, and to assess whether desired outcomes are being achieved. Additionally, we support the Investigations Unit in responding to allegations of fraud, waste, and abuse from various sources such as the Board of Education, District management, and the public. Our Internal Audit Work Plan is intended to be dynamic and flexible, so that we are able to be responsive to emerging risks and changing priorities. Board of Education requests and senior management interests may require that we conduct reviews not listed in this Work Plan, or that audits listed in this Work Plan be deferred or not performed at all, based on new information received during the year. Beginning in FY 2015, a concerted effort will be made to report on significant changes to the Internal Audit Work Plan on a quarterly basis. The proposed projects for FY 2015 include some discretionary audits. Discretionary audits are those audits that are deemed important enough for inclusion in the Work Plan, but which may require additional resources that may or may not be available to the OIG during the fiscal year. Accordingly, we will decide which discretionary audits should be conducted based upon available resources, risk and potential effects on the District’s mission and goals. The OIG has engaged District management over the last few months to discuss their goals, priorities and related risks for FY 2015. We have used this information to prepare a robust work plan that attempts to address some of the District’s more significant and evolving priorities.

0123456789


number of applications for employment received by PC as compared to last year and a 25% increase in the number of candidates that took the employment tests. These increases coupled with the loss of space at the Shatto Building have adversely impacted the performance of PC. This review will assess the current space allocation for PC and examine various ways to resolve any space allocation issues. Basis: Management Request. District Strategy Supported: Operate an effective, efficient, and transparent organization in order to assure the public trust. District Goal Supported: Proficiency for all.

INTERNAL AUDIT WORK PLAN PROJECTS FACILITIES RELATED

Scheduled Audits 1. Small Business Enterprise Program In 2003, the Board of Education established a 25% Small Business Enterprise (SBE) participation goal on all District contracts. In 2010, the Board of Education authorized a bid preference of up to 5% to certified small businesses bidding on low bid construction contracts, in order to encourage more SBE participation. In the latest OIG audit on the SBE program, the reported participation rate of 48% was based on incomplete data and only contract award data. Since 2013, a new SBE calculation format has been implemented by the Facilities Services Division that is based on payment information rather than contract award information. The focus of this audit is to determine the accuracy of the SBE participation rate based on the new calculation methodology. Basis: OIG Risk Assessment; Management Request. District Strategy Supported: Ensure a safe, caring, and nurturing environment for all youth; Operate an effective, efficient, and transparent organization in order to assure the public trust. District Goal Supported: School safety; Parent and community engagement. 2. Follow‐up on DSA Closeout Process According to the California Field Act, all construction projects are subject to Division of the State Architect (DSA) certification to ensure strucutral safety, fire and life safety, and accessibility. In 2012, the OIG completed an audit of the District’s DSA Closeout Certification Process and provided 33 recommendations to District management to increase efficiencies and effectiveness in the closeout process. This follow‐up audit will determine to what extent District management addressed concerns raised in the 2012 OIG audit and whether District management has implemented our audit recommendations or accepted the risk of not taking action.

Basis: OIG Risk Assessment; Management Request. District Strategy Supported: Ensure a safe, caring, and nurturing environment for all youth. District Goal Supported: School safety. 3. Labor Compliance Program California Labor Code and Education Code statutes require labor compliance programs to monitor and enforce compliance with applicable prevailing wage requirements for any public works projects paid for with public funds, within certain statutes of limitation periods. In 1985, the District began administering a program for monitoring the prevailing wage rates paid to construction workers on public works projects throughout the District. This audit will focus on the District’s efficiency in performing labor compliance assessments within specific mandated timelines. Basis: OIG Risk Assessment; Management Request. District Strategy Supported: Ensure a safe, caring, and nurturing environment for all youth; Operate an effective, efficient, and transparent organization in order to assure the public trust. District Goal Supported: School safety; Parent and community engagement. 4. Constructability Review Constructability Reviews are intended to provide assurance that design plans, specifications, bid documents, and supporting documentation are complete, accurate, and transparent before construction begins. In this audit, we will determine to what extent constructability reviews add value to the construction program and are cost effective to perform. Basis: OIG Risk Assessment; Management Request. District Strategy Supported: Provide a portfolio of high quality schools for youth, families and communities. District Goal Supported: School safety; Proficiency for all. 5. Site Assigned Maintenance Work Program Maintenance workers perform a variety of tasks that are critical in the maintenance and repair of schools and offices, maintaining equipment, appliances, grounds, as well as moving and installing school and office equipment and furniture. This audit will examine whether maintenance workers are performing duties in accordance with their job classification. Basis: OIG Risk Assessment; Management Request. District Strategy Supported: Operate an effective, efficient, and transparent organization in order to assure the public trust. District Goal Supported: School safety; Proficiency for all.

6. Hazardous Waste Handling and Disposal Process The OEHS Environmental Compliance Group is key to the safe handling, collection and appropriate disposal of hazardous waste that is generated by schools and other District facilities. The process is managed by OEHS in coordination with the Maintenance and Operations Branch. This audit will examine the process of the collection and disposal of hazardous waste generated by schools and other District facilities and determine whether internal controls are working as intended. Basis: OIG Risk Assessment; Management Request. District Strategy Supported: Ensure a safe, caring, and nurturing environment for all youth. District Goal Supported: School safety.

CONTRACT AUDIT UNIT

The Contract Audit Unit has principal responsibility for auditing bond funded contracts and some non‐bond funded contracts. The Contract Audit Work Plan for FY 2015 identifies projected audits for several divisions within the District. The Work Plan includes 35 projects with a total contract value of over $849 million. The OIG’s bond budget is approximately $2.8 million, which consists of $2.7 million for internal staff costs, $100,000 for external staff costs and $20,000 for costs associated with equipment, travel and training. The cost for audits and salaries for this fiscal year will be covered by Measure Y bond funds. We conducted several interviews with District management as part of our risk assessment for this Work Plan. Based on those interviews, we identified several critical areas that may pose risks or opportunities to District operations and are aligned with the District’s goals and strategies. These areas are listed below.

CONTRACT AUDIT WORK PLAN PROJECTS 1. Construction Contracts The goal of examining the contracts in this area will be to ensure that the contractor completed the construction as required and that contingency and allowance disbursements are drawn down in accordance with the requirements of the contract. Basis: OIG Risk Assessment. District Strategy Supported: Provide a portfolio of high quality schools for youth, families and communities; Ensure a safe, caring, and nurturing environment for all youth. District Goal Supported: Proficiency for all. 2. Professional Services Contracts The District contracts with various vendors for goods and services other than construction services. These services include providing plumbing supplies, food processing, supplemental education services and transportation. The goal of examining these contracts is to ensure that the service providers are complying with the requirements of their individual agreements and that the District was provided the services it paid for. Basis: OIG Risk Assessment. District Strategy Supported: Provide a portfolio of high quality schools for youth, families and communities; Operate an effective, efficient, and transparent organization in order to assure the public trust. District Goal Supported: Proficiency for all.


393

0123456789


3. Technical Evaluations We will perform technical evaluations of several completed projects to ensure that these projects complied with contract documents, specifications and Division of the State Architect (DSA) requirements. Basis: OIG Risk Assessment. District Strategy Supported: Provide a portfolio of high quality schools for youth, families and communities. District Goal Supported: School safety. 4. Change Orders We will review construction change orders in excess of $500,000 to determine whether the costs billed on the change orders are reasonable and allowable under the terms of the contract. We will also determine whether the work detailed in the change orders is within the original scope of work. Basis: OIG Risk Assessment. District Strategy Supported: Provide a portfolio of high quality schools for youth, families and communities; Operate an effective, efficient, and transparent organization in order to assure the public trust. District Goal Supported: Proficiency for all; School safety. 5. Pre‐Award Audits

We will determine the reasonableness of the rates proposed by contractors/vendors for District projects. The audited rates are used by District staff to negotiate competitive contracts for the District. Basis: OIG Risk Assessment. District Strategy Supported: Provide a portfolio of high quality schools for youth, families and communities; Operate an effective, efficient, and transparent organization in order to assure the public trust. District Goal Supported: Proficiency for all. A complete listing of the 35 projects to be completed by the Contract Audit Unit is attached as Exhibit A to this document.

INVESTIGATIONS UNIT

For FY 2015, in addition to responding to allegations of individual misconduct, we also plan to proactively focus on certain strategic areas and activities that we believe will provide the District with added protection of public resources. One important initiative in FY 2015 will be restoring staff capacity and expertise in the Investigations Unit. In recent years, budget cuts and attrition have deprived the Investigations Unit of appropriate staffing levels and training opportunities. The filling of the Deputy Inspector General, Investigations position as well as the Supervising Investigator position will give the Investigations Unit the full complement of leadership that it needs. The Investigations Unit will continue to concentrate its resources on those high‐risk areas that have the greatest potential for finding and deterring fraud, waste, and abuse. The Work Plan identifies the major areas in which we will concentrate our resources. 1. Employee Reassignment This special review will examine the policies and procedures related to this District's practice of reassigning employees to a non‐classroom setting when there are allegations related to student safety. The review will examine District policies and procedures in light of current applicable laws and regulations and collective bargaining agreements.

2. The Fraud Hotline The District’s Fraud Hotline, which generates hundreds of complaints from various sources each year, is managed by the Investigations Unit. Expanding the Fraud Hotline will be an important initiative in the upcoming fiscal year. The expansion will include not only responding to allegations of fraud, waste and abuse, but also ensuring that matters referred to other departments in the District are adequately addressed. This initiative also includes a more visible presence of the Hotline number on the District’s Website and an outreach campaign to increase awareness of the existence of the OIG Hotline among District staff and parents. 3. Employee Integrity Employee integrity investigations will continue to be a focus area due to reports received through the Fraud Hotline. These investigations focus on allegations related to misappropriation of funds, embezzlement, payroll fraud, falsification of documents, property or equipment misuse, theft of property, conflicts of interest, nepotism, forgery, and ethics violations. Employee misuse of the District‐issued procurement credit card (P‐Card) continues to be an area of concern for the District, and we will devote sufficient resources to investigate these matters. To enhance District wide awareness of employee integrity issues, we will conduct fraud awareness training at the Educational Service Center (ESC) level to better apprise


395

0123456789


District management and staff of these issues and how to prevent them. In addition, for those areas that require administrative review but that do no rise to the level of an OIG investigation, we will provide investigative assistance to the ESC operations staff handling these matters. 4. Whistleblower Investigations Persons who report improper governmental activity involving the District are protected against retaliation, interference, intimidation, threats or similar acts. The OIG has the authority to investigate violations of the Whistleblower Protection Policy. In FY 2015, the OIG will endeavor to thoroughly investigate any and all credible complaints of violations of the District’s Whistleblower Protection Policy. 5. School Construction and Modernization Program The District’s multi‐billion dollar school construction and modernization program is moving away from new construction and become more concentrated on modernization. As a result, the number of contractors that the Facilities Services Division (FSD) will manage will likely increase, and thereby require more diligence from District staff and the OIG. Additionally, it may involve more contracts being issued pursuant to the Job Order Contracting (JOC) process which again will require more District and OIG awareness of the process and the risks of improper conduct. In the upcoming year, we will endeavor to create more Facilities and Procurement fraud expertise in the OIG by obtaining training from experts in these areas. 6. Due Diligence Reviews We will continue our public record search program as a service to the District on vendors and contractors involved with the District’s school construction and modernization projects, its charter schools, and of senior management hires. The FSD uses OIG Due diligence reports in their selection of the most qualified firms to build and modernize our schools. The District uses several hundred contractors in the construction program. The demand for this work is likely to increase as the building program becomes more concentrated on modernization. California State law requires that the District maintain oversight of charter schools. We will continue to conduct due diligence reviews on charter schools and their principal officers to assist the Charter Schools Division (CSD) in making fair and equitable recommendations to the Board of Education with respect to the approval and renewal of charter school petitions. We will also continue to assist the Personnel Commission in its role of managing the selection process for senior management personnel. 7. Charter Schools The District now maintains oversight of approximately 250 charter schools. As a result, there is increased oversight risk with the growth in the number of charter schools. In the upcoming


396

0123456789


fiscal year, the OIG will seek to work collaboratively with CSD to share appropriate information that can strengthen the District’s oversight capabilities over charter schools.

OTHER OIG ACTIVITIES

Fraud Alerts

Fraud Alerts are an important tool for deterring the continuation of fraudulent activities that have been identified by the OIG. Our goal is to issue at least two Fraud Alerts in the upcoming fiscal year as a means of informing District management of issues of concern and as a means of leveraging OIG findings of individual acts to a broader District audience.

Special Reviews As a supplement to the audit and investigative functions, the OIG also performs Special Reviews. There are two types of Special Reviews – one is a short‐term (usually 2‐3 months) management or program review that focuses on an issue or concern of the Board of Education, the Superintendent, or District management. These short‐term reviews examine programs from a broader, more issue‐oriented perspective than traditional audits or investigations. These reviews also combine some of the best features of several disciplines; including program evaluation, survey research, operational auditing, program monitoring, compliance reviews, legal analysis, investigations, and management analysis. Through these short‐term special reviews, we are able to provide timely, useful, reliable information and advice to District decision makers. The second type of Special Review is a preliminary analysis (usually less than 30 days) of a specific issue or concern to determine whether a more in‐depth, independent audit or investigation should be conducted.

Mr. Kayser - Asthma Awareness Month and Task Force (Res-089-13/14)(Noticed May 20, 2014)

Whereas, Asthma is a major public health problem in the United States; affecting approximately 15million people, nearly 5 million of whom are under the age of eighteen. People with asthma experienceover 100 million days of restricted activity annually and approximately 5,000 asthma-related deathsoccur each year in this country;

Whereas, It is estimated that more than nine percent of children in the United States currently have thedisease and LAUSD’s Nursing Services reports there are 34,983 students with asthma in the Districtthough this number is likely to double were more thorough identifications done;

Whereas, Increased asthma severity correlates with increased absenteeism and nighttime awakenings inchildren with asthma significantly correlate with school absenteeism; the greater the number of nightsawakened, the greater the number of school days missed;

Whereas, Half of all children with asthma under twelve (12) years of age miss at least one day of schoolper year; the average number of days missed among this group is five point two (5.2) days and up toeleven (11) percent of children with asthma attending California schools miss eleven (11) or more daysof school per year due to this medical condition;

Whereas, LAUSD is eager to reduce absenteeism by both students and staff and seeks to minimize theexposure of students, employees, parents and the community to potentially irritating chemicals;

Whereas, Fumes from cleaning products and their associated fragrances can linger long after they havebeen applied, exacerbating asthma symptoms and exposing students and staff to potentially harmfulsubstances;

Whereas, Multiple agencies focused on health and the environment, such as the United States’Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Department of the Interior, the Responsible PurchasingNetwork and the Green Seal Standard for Industrial and Institutional Cleaners have indicated thatfragrances and dyes found in cleaning products are known triggers of asthma attacks and shouldtherefore be eliminated from public spaces;

Whereas, Both long- or short-term exposure to toxic chemicals or harmful particles, gases, or vaporscan have serious consequences such as asthma, allergies, depression, hormonal changes, or even cancerwhile “green cleaning products” benefit the environment and help protect people, especially vulnerablepopulations such as the elderly, the infirm, children, and the chemically-sensitive heir; and

Whereas, May has been declared as Asthma Awareness Month by the Environmental Protection



434

Agency; now, therefore, be it

Resolved, That the Governing Board of Los Angeles Unified School District proclaim May as AsthmaAwareness Month; and be it finally

Resolved, That the Superintendent shall form a ninety-day (90) task force comprised, but not limited toparents, employees, facilities managers, Nursing Services, the Office of Environmental Health andSafety, and outside asthma specialists to review district operations (maintenance, procurement, etc.) inorder to identify, make recommendations and ultimately eliminate known asthma triggers with a goal ofreducing asthma-related school absences by children and staff in 2014-2015 school year.

Ms. García, Mr. Zimmer, Ms. Ratliff - Strengthen Support for Standard English Learners (Res-097-13/14)

(Noticed May 20, 2014)

Whereas, Language is essential to children’s cognitive and social development, transmits knowledge tothe learner, stimulates understanding and learning and permeates all learning standards;

Whereas, Los Angeles School District (LAUSD) seeks to ensure every student has equitableopportunities to learn as both a human right and a civil right, and seeks to ensure access to alinguistically and culturally responsive instruction for equitable access to the curriculum;

Whereas, The language of the school and classroom is Standard English, and every student mustdemonstrate mastery and proficiency in all aspects of the English language in order to be college andcareer ready upon high school completion;

Whereas, Students face barriers to learning when their language varies from the Academic StandardEnglish used in classroom discourse and in textbooks, and thus may not always access equitableopportunities to learn;

Whereas, Building on the strengths of a students’ first language is the most effective means to developproficiency in a second language, a full access to classroom discourse, and to a rigorous curriculum;

Whereas, African American Vernacular English, Mexican American (and other Latino groups) English,Hawai’ian Pidgin English, and Native American English are the languages of a significant number ofstudents, commonly referred to as Standard English Learners (SEL) in the LAUSD, and identified asEnglish Only and/or Initially Fluent English Proficient, who demonstrate limited English vocabularyand syntactical, grammatical and phonological differences indicative of a distinct language group;

Ms. Galatzan, Ms. Ratliff - Agricultural Education Incentives Encourage InspiringOutcomes (Res-088-13/14) (Noticed May 13, 2014)

Whereas, California’s reputation for leadership in innovating and expanding agricultural industries hasbeen made possible through the availability of well-trained and educated personnel;

Whereas, California, being the leading agriculture-producing state for over 60 years, has a compellinginterest in ensuring that its school systems support and promote the continued development ofinnovative and well-trained agricultural leaders;

Whereas, The state’s $4.13 million Agricultural Education Incentive Grant program has been availableto schools since 1983, and provides support for rigorous agricultural education programs;

Whereas, A requirement for matching funds ensures that school districts provide a local investment inproviding education support and resources for students interested in pursuing careers in agriculture;Whereas, The state provided $27,957 to LAUSD to support agricultural programs in the 2013-2014school year;

Whereas, The Agricultural Education Incentive Grant program has provided financial incentives fordistricts to embark on a systematic and sustained process for improving the delivery and effectivenessof Agricultural Education throughout California;

Whereas, The Agricultural Education Incentive Grant program provides clear guidance and direction toschool districts in developing and promoting high-quality standards by requiring that programs uphold15 quality indicators set forth by the state;

Whereas, The non-profit Future Farmers of America, which is supported in our schools through theAgricultural Education Incentive Grant program, has long proven itself to be an outstandingorganization that promotes excellence in agriculture education;

Whereas, LAUSD has four high schools that currently benefit from the Agricultural Education IncentiveGrant program and related Future Farmers of America activities: Canoga Park, North Hollywood,Sylmar, and Verdugo Hills;

Whereas, The Agricultural Education Incentive Grant program supports magnet programs at CanogaPark High School and North Hollywood High School which attract students from all parts of LAUSDand provide students a career-focused education;

Whereas, The loss of the incentive grant would have a negative impact on all participating LAUSDschools in ways including but not limited to:



448

0123456789



- the inability to provide student membership dues for Future Farmers of America

resulting in lower participation in Career Development Events and leadership workshops

- the inability to send students to educational conferences and support their independent

learning projects

- the inability to provide hands-on learning through campus farms because of a lack of

animal feed and supplies

- the inability to repair and purchase new farm equipment;

Whereas, Participation in the program gives students a small school environment within a largercomprehensive high school and that offers students a sense of belonging that leads to greater investmentin educational success;

Whereas, Agricultural programs create a support system for some students who may otherwise feelmarginalized such as students at risk of dropping out and special education students;

Whereas, Students in agricultural programs develop important character skills and values such asresponsibility, commitment, and pride in hard work;

Whereas, The existence of agricultural programs supports the LAUSD goal of having 100% of studentsgraduate college-prepared and career-ready;

Whereas, Governor Brown has proposed folding the Agricultural Incentive Grant into the Local ControlFunding Formula (LCFF), effectively eliminating the incentive for LAUSD to support or fully fund thisprogram;

Whereas, LAUSD will gain substantially more revenue if the Agricultural Education Incentive Grant isfolded into the Local Control Funding Formula;

Whereas, The California Legislature has rejected Governor Brown’s plan to fold the AgriculturalEducation Incentive Grant into LCFF, instead encouraging him to preserve the existing program; now,therefore, be it

Resolved, That the Governing Board of the Los Angeles Unified School District will preserve fundingfor the Agriculture programs at Canoga Park, North Hollywood, Sylmar, and Verdugo Hills for the2014-2015 school year and beyond at levels that equal or exceed the current total amounts, eitherthrough the ongoing state grant or new LCFF model.

Ms. Ratliff - Resolution in Support of Safe and Clean Schools (Res-090-13/14)(Noticed May 13, 2014)

Whereas, The Los Angeles Unified School District is dedicated to providing a safe and inclusivelearning environment for all students;

Whereas, Student achievement begins with a safe and healthy school and classroom environment that isconducive to learning and free from disruption;

Whereas, The Superintendent has presented a draft budget for the fiscal years 2014-15, 2015-16 and2016-17 (the “Proposed Budget”);

Whereas, The LAUSD added over 60 school sites since the 2007/08 school year on over 400 acresspread across the District and underwent a 24% increase in square footage, without a commensurateincrease in Los Angeles School Police (the “LASPD”) officers and other resources to patrol suchschools;

Whereas, The Proposed Budget includes no material changes from the $57.7 million of annual funding(including $13.02 million of supplemental and concentration funds) for the LASPD seen in the 2013/14school year;

Whereas, The Proposed Budget, without clear explanation, includes widely varying proportions ofcertain divisions’ budgets (e.g. 26.4% of Psychologists, 22.8% of Campus Aides, 22.6% of SchoolPolice, 30.7% of Special Education and 65.3% of Options Program) under Supplemental concentrationfunding, which is targeted to English Learners, low-income students and foster children;

Whereas, The Proposed Budget accounts for other items, such as After School Programs, Cafeteria,Campus Aides, Counselors, GATE, School Readiness Language Development Program andTransportation solely under Base Funding, even though English Learners, low-income students andfoster children are being served by those programs;

Whereas, Break-ins during off-hours including evenings, early mornings, weekends and schoolvacations incur costly damages and losses for the LAUSD;

Whereas, The Board has committed to providing schools with increased technology at the school sitesworth millions of dollars and hopes to eventually send such technology home with our students;

Whereas, Conventional wisdom suggests that more officers and/or other resources deployed by theLASPD in a property protection capacity and providing safe passages for our students as they come and



450

0123456789



go from school can reduce harm to our students and reduce LAUSD’s losses due to break-ins andvandalism;

Whereas, On May 14, 2013, the Los Angeles Unified School District adopted the School DisciplinePolicy and School Climate Bill of Rights’ Resolution that, among other things: promotes alternatives toschool suspensions; requires the implementation of restorative justice practices at schools; builds uponthe Los Angeles Unified School District's implementation of the School-Wide Positive BehaviorInterventions and Supports aimed at reducing suspensions, increasing attendance and improving testscores; and defines the role of police on school campuses;

Whereas, The Proposed Budget allots $0.66 million for 5 full-time equivalent (“FTE”) RestorativeJustice Counselors and $2.0 to $5.0 million to unspecified School Climate & Restorative Justicepurposes;

Whereas, Community input suggests that the proposed Restorative Justice resources are woefullyinadequate for a school district of well over half a million students spread across hundreds of schoolcampuses;

Whereas, Research suggests that restorative justice principles must be consistently applied, andrestorative justice practitioners must be an enduring force for a school-based program to be successful;

Whereas, In order to implement the rollout of Phase 3 of the Common Core Technology Project, theProposed Budget earmarks $8.0 million and $1.8 million, respectively, of Supplemental concentrationfunding for Instructional Technology Support (“VLC”) and School Technology Support (“MCSA” and,together with VLC, collectively “Technology Support”) for the 2014/15 school year;

Whereas, The Governing Board has authorized Phase 1, Phase 2 and Phase 1L of the Common CoreTechnology Project, which have been reflected in the 2013/14 budget, but has not authorizedproceeding with Phase 3 of the Common Core Technology Project at this time, although the GoverningBoard remains committed to access to 21st Century learning for all;

Whereas, The Proposed Budget also clearly earmarks $6.6 million of Base Funding for TechnologySupport for the 2014/15 school year;

Whereas, LAUSD Facilities Maintenance and Operations (“FM&O”) reports that, since the 2007/08school year, the average custodial hours at LAUSD’s Elementary, Middle and High Schools have beenreduced by 29%, 50% and 44%, respectively, and the corresponding custodial supply allotments havebeen reduced by 24%, 50% and 54%;

Whereas, The Proposed Budget restores only 59 out of the 1,370 custodial positions that FM&O hasstated are needed to fulfill custodial standards, and the Proposed Budget makes no increase whatsoeverto the custodial supply allotment, which FM&O has stated should be increased by $1.7 million toachieve such standards;

Whereas, The LAUSD’s Breakfast in the Classrooms (“BIC”) initiative has created even more custodialneeds - by way of example, BIC training calls for waste milk to be poured down classroom sinks whereavailable, and the current custodial allotment results in classroom sinks being cleaned only weekly or astime allows;



451

0123456789



Whereas, BIC is scheduled to expand to every school in the District that does not opt out by the end ofthe 2014/15 school year;

Whereas, Research has shown a correlation between clean schools and student academic achievement;and

Whereas, Research shows that more frequent cleaning of schools can result in lower absenteeism fromgastrointestinal and respiratory illness; now, therefore be it

Resolved, That the Governing Board of the Los Angeles Unified School District reaffirms itscommitment to providing a high-quality education and safe and well-maintained school facilities thatencourage learning;

Resolved further, That the Board instructs the Superintendent to supervise the development of a reportthat presents funding requirements for ideal LASPD deployment and other resources for propertyprotection and safe passages activities. Such report shall be delivered to the Governing Board areasonable time prior to the Governing Board’s vote on the Final Budget for the 2014/15 school year, sothe Board can determine whether increased funding for the LASPD and or other property protectionmeasures are warranted; and be it

Resolved further, That the Board instructs the Superintendent to accurately apply a consistent andappropriate algorithm across all divisions in determining what portion of budgeted expenditures areaccounted for under Base Funding and what portion of budgeted expenditures are accounted for underSupplemental/concentration funding;

Resolved further, That the Board instructs the Superintendent to revise the Proposed Budget toconsistently account under Base Funding and/or Supplemental/concentration funding, for the relevantportions of appropriate line items including, without limitation, LASPD, After School Programs,Cafeteria, Campus Aides, Counselors, GATE, School Readiness Language Development Program andTransportation;

Resolved further, That the Proposed Budget be revised, to the extent allowed by law, to spend $6.51million of the $16.4 million of Supplemental/concentration funding and/or Base Funding currentlyearmarked for Technology Support for the 2014/15 school year, on increasing the number of custodialpositions by 108 FTEs, so that the number of FTE custodial positions added in the 2014/15 school yearwill be increased from 25 to 133, with deployment concentrated in the areas of greatest need;

Resolved, further That the Board commends the Superintendent for planning to establish, during the2014/15 school year, 18 school climate and restorative justice related demonstration sites at secondaryschools (across ESCs) that are identified based on OCR target schools with disproportionate suspensionof African American students and students with disability; and be it

Resolved, further That the “School Climate & Restorative Justice” line item of the Proposed Budget berevised to reflect the Los Angeles Unified School District School Operations’ Proposed Budget for theDiscipline Foundation Policy with respect to the 2014/15 school year and to clarify what will comprisethis line item in the 2015/16 and 2016/17 school years; and be it



452

0123456789



Resolved, further, That the Proposed Budget be revised, to the extent allowed by law, to spend $1.29million of the $16.4 million of Supplemental/concentration funding and/or Base Funding currentlyearmarked for Technology Support for the 2014/15 school year on additional professional developmentin School Wide Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (the “SWPBIS”) including SWPBIScoaches, Restorative Practices, and other trauma-informed and social emotional learning strategies thatare research-based for the 18 demonstration secondary sites; and be it

Resolved further, That the Board acknowledges that having only 18 demonstration secondary sites withdedicated Restorative Justice Counselors and targeted SWPBIS are insufficient resources to fullyimplement our commitment to the School Climate Bill of Rights Resolution, but is a decent first step;and be it finally

Resolved, That the Proposed Budget be revised, to the extent allowed by law, to allocate $8.6 million ofthe $16.4 million of Supplemental/concentration funding and/or Base Funding currently earmarked forTechnology Support for the 2014/15 school year to a “rainy day” fund to cover initiatives oraugmentations to be approved by the Governing Board in the future, which may or may not includeTechnology Support.

Whereas, LAUSD has a momentous opportunity to close the achievement gap for high need, low-income students within the district;

Whereas, Governor Brown boldly reminds California of the spirit and intent of the LCFF by stating that“equal treatment for children in unequal situations is not justice;”

Whereas, LCFF sets forth a new equity-based vision for funding school districts determined on need,where school districts with higher numbers of English learners, foster youth, and low-income youthreceive additional supplemental and concentration grants to mitigate the harmful effects ofdisadvantage;

Whereas, the Superintendent projects an estimated $837 million in supplemental and concentrationgrants for high need students;

Whereas, LAUSD has a historic opportunity to develop bold investments that reflect the spirit and intentof LCFF by ensuring that the supplemental and concentration dollars target its high and highest needschools first;

Whereas, LAUSD also has a historic opportunity to take a fuller, more comprehensive look into theimpediments of academic achievement within its district by taking into account environmental factorsthat create barriers to achievement;

Whereas, under the LCFF notion of subsidiarity, Advancement Project, Community Coalition, andInnerCity Struggle, have developed and researched an equity-based student need distribution of fundsthat take into account academic, health, and safety variables to rigorously and comprehensively assessneed locally;



454

0123456789



Whereas, by taking a comprehensive approach to LCFF investment and using a student need index toinform the allocation of funds, LAUSD can effectively address the achievement gap problem, set a newstandard for embodying the spirit of LCFF legislation, and reduce the need for costly and inefficientremedial actions; now, therefore be it

Resolved, That the Governing Board of the Los Angeles Unified School District directs theSuperintendent to construct and adopt an equity-based student need index as the means for identifyinghigh and highest need schools in LAUSD for the distribution of funds and use the ‘Aggregate StudentNeed Index’ as the foundation for this work.

Mr. Kayser -Reaffirming Our Commitment to Early Education through the Local Control FundingFormula and an Improved Economic Climate in the Los Angeles Unified School District (Res-101-13/14) (For Action June 17, 2014)

Whereas, The Los Angeles Unified School District is committed to providing every student with aquality education in a safe, caring environment and ensuring that every student will graduate college-prepared and career ready;

Whereas, To ensure that all children are on the path to college and career readiness, we must lay thefoundation early, investing additional resources in early education, to prepare them for kindergarten andbuilding on their progress in elementary, middle, and high school;

Whereas, Economists Rob Grunewald and Arthur J. Rolnick from The Federal Reserve Bank ofMinneapolis researched several studies of model programs and, when considering the Perry Preschoolprogram, found a return on investment of 16 percent, with 80 percent of the benefits going to thegeneral public. The data about model programs-such as Perry Preschool showed that it yielded morethan $8 for every $1 invested. This rate of return clearly shows the benefits of investing in earlyeducation compared to other investments;

Whereas, A child’s early language environment plays a critical role in his or her listening and spokenlanguage development. For children born into poverty, there is a well-documented inequity in their earlylanguage experience. By age three, disadvantaged children have heard approximately thirty millionfewer words than their more affluent counterparts. Without early education programs, children growingup in low-income households lose ground to their middle-class peers, starting school behind and thatgap only widens as they advance through elementary school;

Whereas, In the early years of a child’s life, young children have the ability to develop core academicknowledge in pre-literacy and early math, while also developing important learning skills, such aspaying attention, managing emotions and completing tasks. Several studies, such as the High ScopePerry Preschool Study, the Abecedarian Project, and the Chicago Child-Parent Center EducationProgram, in the U.S. alone, show that quality preschool significantly benefits children’s school successand strengthens confidence and parenting skills of families with young children;

Whereas, The Harvard Family Research Project reaffirms the positive impact of home-schoolrelationships between families and schools with respect to achieving desirable outcomes for children inthe early years and also show these benefits to persist over time;

Whereas, Students were more likely to reach advanced or proficient levels on the state’s annual 3rdgrade assessment than those who did not attend Denver Public Preschool (64% vs 58%), and less likelyto score at unsatisfactory levels (13% vs. 19%).



460

0123456789



Whereas, Students were three-fourths of a year ahead of their peers in math, and two-thirds of a yearahead in literacy by 5th grade, scoring higher on state assessments than those who did not attend theNew Jersey Abbott Preschool program;

Whereas, Students who participated in the Michigan Great Start Readiness Program were more likely tograduate on time from high school, 58% vs. 43%, and in particularly, children of color, 60% vs. 37%;

Whereas, the Chicago Public School Child-Parent Center Program led to a 29% increase in high schoolgraduation by age 20;

Whereas, More than 9 out of 10 kindergarten teachers in California say it is important for children tohave access to quality early education before they start kindergarten, according to a statewide poll ofCalifornia public school kindergarten teachers;

Whereas, Low-income students who attended San Mateo County’s Preschool for All program in theRedwood City School District for two years outperformed more well-off children who did not attend.By 2nd grade, 74% of those attending the program for two years were proficient in reading, comparedto 55% of those who did not attend, and 62% who attended were proficient in math, compared to 50%;

Whereas, The Local Control Funding Formula, provides equitable, increased funding for the LosAngeles Unified School District as it has high concentrations of low-income students, studentsclassified as English Learners, and students in foster care, allowing The District to invest these newfunds by selecting from state-identified priority areas such as student achievement and parentengagement, outcomes of which can be achieved starting by investing in early education;

Whereas, The funds generated by the Local Control Funding Formula, the Los Angeles Unified SchoolDistrict can prevent the school readiness gap and better prepare more of its youngest students startingfrom early education to read proficiently by 3rd grade; creating an opportunity to create budgets thatutilize resources in a way that is both equitable and outcomes driven;

Whereas, The District’s adoption of Common Core places a higher emphasis on being ready for schoolupon entering kindergarten, making access to high-quality early education for LAUSD students evenmore critical;

Whereas, The early elementary grades are when children learn to understand foundation math, reading,and reasoning skills that allow them to tackle more complex subjects in third grade and beyond;

Whereas, There is an increasing number of English Learners under the age of five in our communityand there is also a growing body of research indicating the ability of young children to learn more thanone language in a supportive environment and that acquiring more than one language in the early yearsincreases brain development and promotes academic achievement;

Whereas, Only 7% of 3rd grade English Learners in the Los Angeles Unified School District areproficient or advanced in English Language Arts per the California STARS 2013 test results. Investingin early education can remedy this by ensuring that the youngest students in the Los Angeles UnifiedSchool District are prepared to learn and ready to succeed;

Whereas, Research shows that students who start out behind too often stay behind and those who are not



461

0123456789



reading proficiently in 3rd grade are four times more likely to not graduate from high school;

Whereas, in addition to the Local Control Funding Formula, improvements in the economy in Californiamake it so that the Los Angeles Unified School District has more resources available to invest instrategies to improve outcomes in comparison to previous years, especially during 2008-2012; nowtherefore be it

Resolved, That the Governing Board of the Los Angeles Unified School District reaffirms itscommitment to its youngest learners by investing an additional $10 million in 2014-2015 to the EarlyEducation Division, $14 million in 2015-2016, and $20 million in 2016-2017, pursuant to the timeframeof the Local Control Funding Formula and its corresponding Local Control Accountability Plan. Thisadditional $10 million can be used to support expanding access, improving quality by way of providingparent education where appropriate, and providing early mental and physical health screenings wherepossible;

Resolved further, That the Board directs the Superintendent to charge the Early Education Division toidentify and prioritize those early education sites (inclusive of the School Readiness and LanguageDevelopment Programs and Early Education Centers), that would most benefit from additionalresources based on criteria including, but not limited to:

·· Highest need elementary schools based on 3rd grade reading scores and their respectiveproximity to a District early education site;

·· Elementary schools with high-concentrations of English Learners and children in fostercare and their respective proximity to a District early education site;

·· Highest need communities within the Los Angeles Unified School District boundaries asdemonstrated by hot-zones, persistent wait lists, and other measures the District deemsappropriate; and be it finally

Resolved, That the Governing Board of the Los Angeles Unified School District request that theSuperintendent, the Early Education Division, and community stakeholders as appropriate, cometogether to develop the specific plan for how additional resources in the amount of $10 million will beallocated for early education, upon adoption of the final 2014-2015 budget in June.

OPEN SESSION ITEMS

BOARD MEMBER RESOLUTIONS FOR INITIAL ANNOUNCEMENT Mr. Crain announced that the following Board Member resolutions will be for Action at the May 13, 2014 Regular Board Meeting: Mr. Zimmer - Supporting Senate Bill 1174: To Ensure Students Access to Biliteracy (Res-084-13/14)

Whereas, On the statewide primary election of June 2, 1998 California voters approved Proposition 227 which severely restricted the use of primary language for instructing English Learners and instead called for a transitional program of Structured English Immersion that was normally not to last for more than one year; Whereas, This initiative was the first to ask the public to vote on a specific instructional strategy for educating children, Whereas, Normally, instructional methods are the purview of teacher training and research institutions where educators debate decisions about instruction through a process adjudicated by the State Board of Education, Whereas, In 2006 the California Dept. of Education contracted with the American Institutes of Research and West Ed to conduct a five year legislatively mandated evaluation of the effects of Proposition 227, Whereas, This study found that Proposition 227 had not helped substantially in improving English Learner reclassification, integration, or academic performance;

489

0123456789


Whereas, The program requirements of Proposition 227 do not reflect the current ‘state of the art’ evidence-based programs that develop student’s biliteracy and bilingualism and are the most effective for long term academic success and for closing the achievement gap; Whereas, A large body of research has demonstrated the cognitive benefits and increase in academic performance of students in dual and tri-immersion programs; Whereas, As evidenced by the growth of these programs across the state, parents have expressed their interest in having multilingual programs, in order to prepare their children to participate in the global economy; Whereas, SB 1174 (Lara, D-33); which asks the Legislature to place an initiative on the ballot to amend Proposition 227; has been introduced and is currently under consideration by the California Senate, and Whereas, SB 1174 has the support of the California Assn. for Bilingual Education and Californians Together, a coalition of parents, teachers, education advocates and civil rights groups, now, therefore be it Resolved, That the Board of Education strongly support Senate Bill 1174, introduced by Senator Ricardo Lara; and be it finally Resolved, That the Superintendent direct the Office of Legislation to communicate the District’s position to the appropriate committees of the State Legislature and the Los Angeles delegation.

Ms. García - Celebrating Asian/Pacific American Heritage Month (Res-082-13/14)

Whereas, In 1977, Congress introduced a House resolution to proclaim the first ten days of May as Asian/Pacific Heritage Week; Whereas, On October, 1978, President Jimmy Carter signed a joint resolution designating this as an annual celebration, which we now know as Asian-Pacific Heritage Week; Whereas, In 1990, May was chosen to commemorate the immigration of the first Japanese to the United States, which was on May, 1843, and to mark the anniversary of the completion of the transcontinental railroad on May 10, 1869, in which the majority of the workers who laid the tracks were Chinese immigrants; Whereas, In 1990 Congress voted to expand Asian-Pacific Heritage from a week to a month-long celebration and in May 1992, the month of May was permanently designated as Asian/Pacific American Heritage Month; Whereas, Studies have found that the academic needs of Asian American and Pacific Islander students are frequently overlooked;

490

0123456789


Whereas, Understanding Asian and Pacific Islander history is an important part of celebrating Asian and Pacific Islander Heritage Month; Whereas, Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders have contributed in significant ways to all aspects of society; Whereas, Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders have endured and overcome hardship and heartache. In the earliest years, tens of thousands of Gold Rush pioneers, coal miners, transcontinental railroad builders, as well as farm and orchard laborers, were subject to unjust working conditions, prejudice, and discrimination - yet they excelled; Whereas, Even in the darkness of the Exclusion Act and Japanese internment, Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders have persevered, providing for their families and creating opportunities for their children; Whereas, California is one of the states with the largest Asian American and Pacific Islanders’ population; and Whereas, In the Los Angeles Unified School District, 6.14% of the student population are identified as Asian, Filipino, or Pacific Islander; now therefore, be it Resolved, That the Board of Education of the City of Los Angeles proclaims May as the Asian/Pacific Islander Heritage Month and encourages all students, faculty, administrators, and parents to remember and celebrate the contributions that Asian and Pacific Islanders have made to California and the United States through various classroom projects; and be it finally Resolved, That the Superintendent work with all schools of the Los Angeles Unified School District to recognize and celebrate Asian/Pacific American Heritage Month through culturally relevant activities and through in-depth discussions of historically relevant topics.

Ms. García, Ms. Ratliff – Affirming our Commitment to the School Discipline Policy and School Climate Bill of Rights and Establishing May as School Climate Bill of Rights Awareness Month (Res-083-13/14)

Whereas, The Los Angeles Unified School District is committed to closing the achievement gap by providing equitable access to a vigorous education that ensures all students will graduate from high school college-prepared and career-ready; Whereas, Student achievement begins with safe classrooms and a healthy environment that is conducive to learning and free from disruption; Whereas, On May 14, 2013, the Governing Board of the Los Angeles Unified School District adopted the School Discipline Policy and School Climate Bill of Rights Resolution that among other things, promotes alternatives to school suspensions; implements restorative justice strategies at schools; and builds upon LAUSD's implementation of the School-Wide Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (SWPBIS) aimed at reducing suspensions, increasing attendance and academic achievement;

491

0123456789


Whereas, The Los Angeles Unified School District SWPBIS Task Force has shown continued partner support and demand for effective and efficient implementation of the 2013 School Discipline Policy and School Climate Bill of Rights resolution; Whereas, The White House has announced the My Brother’s Keeper Initiative and has specifically called for improving school climate and reversing zero-tolerance policies; Whereas, The Successful School Climate: Progressive Discipline and Safety Committee has heard testimony from students, teachers and administrators on how Positive Behavior and Interventions and Support (PBIS) and Restorative Justice (RJ) create an academically supportive environment in schools; Whereas, Youth, parents, and community organizations continue to work with LAUSD leadership on expanding the implementation of the School Discipline Policy and School Climate Bill of Rights Resolution, as well as working with the School Climate Committee and Discipline task force; Whereas, School Climate Bill of Rights Month is a vehicle to promote student empowerment, safety and wellness in our schools and offers an excellent opportunity to focus the energy, attention, commitment, and action of the entire educational community on ensuring students are engaged, healthy, and achieving; Whereas, The LAUSD is committed to helping students succeed academically without imposing negative life altering consequences that can further add to their likelihood to be part of the “school-to-prison-pipeline”; Whereas, The Los Angeles School Police Department has continued to be a champion for reforms to end outdated approaches to discipline and punitive strategies for correcting inappropriate student behavior; Whereas, LAUSD has been the trailblazer in California and San Francisco Unified School District and Fresno Unified School District have followed suit toward more mental health based approaches to correcting negative student behavior; Whereas, School Climate Bill of Rights Month is an opportunity for all students in LAUSD to deepen their educational experience and to strengthen their connection to the school’s culture; now, therefore, be it Resolved, That the Governing Board of the Los Angeles Unified School District affirms our commitment to the School Discipline Policy and School Climate Bill of Rights; Resolved further, That the Governing Board of the Los Angeles Unified School District establishes May as School Climate Bill of Rights Awareness Month; and be it finally, Resolved, That the Governing Board of the Los Angeles Unified School District directs the Superintendent to work with all schools to recognize and celebrate May as the School Climate Bill of Rights Awareness Month.
