GOVERNING BOARD AGENDA September 3, 2019
PREPARED BY: David Feliciano Superintendent ITEM NUMBER: H-1 Public Hearing Draft Trustee Area Boundary Maps Board members are currently elected in “at-large” elections, where each member is elected by voters throughout the District. The California Voting Rights Act (“CVRA”) prohibits the use of “at-large” elections in certain circumstances. By-trustee-area” elections, in which members are elected by voters in geographical subdivisions of the jurisdiction, are immune from challenge under the CVRA. At its meeting on May 7, 2019, the Board adopted Resolution 18-19-21 indicating its intent to transition from at-large to by-trustee area elections. At that same meeting, the Board held its first public hearing as part of the process to adopt a trustee area boundary map in order to transition from at-large to by-trustee area elections. It held a second public hearing at its meeting on June 4, a third public hearing at its meeting on June 18. Following these public hearings the District posted draft trustee area boundary maps on its website. On July 9, the Board held its first public hearing regarding the draft maps. Subsequently, the District posted additional draft trustee area boundary maps on its website and on August 6, the Board held its second public hearing regarding the draft maps. Tonight, the Board will hold its third and final public hearing regarding the draft maps. During this hearing, the public is asked to provide input regarding the composition of potential trustee area boundaries.

POLICY GUIDE SHEET March 2019 Page 2 of 5

AR/E 1312.4 - Williams Uniform Complaint Procedures (AR, E(1), and E(2) revised; E(3) and E(4) added)

BP/AR 3260 - Fees and Charges (BP/AR revised)

responsible for property damage. Policy also reflects NEW LAW (AB 1974) which prohibits the collection of debt owed by a current or former homeless or foster youth.
BP/AR 4030 - Nondiscrimination in Employment (BP/AR revised)
Policy and regulation updated to clarify applicability of the policy to nonemployees providing services to the district pursuant to a contract. Policy reflects NEW STATE REGULATIONS (Register 2018, No. 20) which add a definition of national origin and make it an unlawful employment practice to inquire into or discriminate against an employee on the basis of immigration status. Policy also reflects NEW LAW (SB 1300) which (1) prohibits districts from requiring an employee, in exchange for a raise or bonus or as a condition of employment or continued employment, to sign a nondisparagement agreement or release the right to file a claim against the district for unlawful acts in the workplace, including sexual harassment, and (2) provides that a district may be responsible for any harassment (not just sexual harassment) of employees by nonemployees if the district knows or should have known of the conduct and failed to take action. Regulation revises section on "Measures to Prevent Discrimination" to reflect a requirement, formerly in BP, to post the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH) poster on workplace discrimination and harassment and to add the requirement to post the DFEH poster on the rights of transgender employees.

Regulation updated to reflect NEW LAW (AB 2826) which adds a requirement, applicable to districts that have entered into interdistrict attendance agreements, to post on their web site the procedures and timelines for requests for interdistrict transfer permits. Regulation also reflects timelines added by AB 2826 for notifying parents/guardians of the district's granting or denial of the transfer request, which differ for current-year and future-year transfer requests, and for the parent/guardian's appeal of the district's decision to the county office of education. In section on "School District of Choice Program," material deleted regarding the denial of a transfer into the district based on a negative impact on a desegregation plan or the racial/ethnic balance of the district, as such grounds are only applicable to transfers out of the district.
BP/AR 5118 - Open Enrollment Act Transfers (BP/AR deleted)
Policy and regulation deleted since schools are not currently being identified as low achieving based on the Academic Performance Index. Transfers previously required under this policy are no longer mandated. The provisions for transfers are covered in BP/AR 5116.1 and BP/AR 5117.
AR 5125.2 - Withholding Grades, Diploma and Transcripts (AR revised)
Regulation updated to reflect NEW LAW (AB 1974) which allows districts to offer any student, other than a current or former homeless student, nonmonetary means to settle debt owed for property loss or damage resulting from the student's willful misconduct and to withhold the student's grades, diploma, and/or transcripts until the work or other alternative is completed.
BP 5127 - Graduation Ceremonies and Activities (BP revised)
Policy updated to provide optional language providing that passage of any of the three high school equivalency tests approved by the State Board of Education is not equivalent to completing all graduation requirements for participation in graduation ceremonies. Option for student-initiated, student-led prayer at graduation ceremonies deleted consistent with court decisions which suggest that such prayer could be unconstitutional. Policy also reflects NEW LAW (AB 1248) which permits students to wear tribal regalia or recognized religious or cultural adornments to the cap and gown, unless the district determines that an item is likely to cause substantial disruption of the ceremony.
E 5145.6 - Parental Notifications (E revised)
Exhibit reflects NEW LAWS requiring parental notice of the rights of pregnant and parenting students (AB 2289), mental health services available in the school and community (AB 2022), risks and effects of lead exposure when child enrolls in a licensed child care center or preschool (AB 2370), and specified educational rights of migrant students and newly arrived immigrant students in grades 11-12 (AB 2121).

Regulation updated to reflect NEW LAW (AB 605) which establishes a new child care center license and requires all centers to be licensed by January 1, 2024. Section on "Eligibility and Enrollment" updated to reflect NEW LAW (AB 2626) which raises the income eligibility threshold for subsidized services from 70 to 85 percent of the state median income and provides that a family that establishes eligibility for services, regardless of the basis of eligibility, is generally entitled to receive services for at least 12 months before being recertified for eligibility. Regulation also reflects NEW LAW (AB 2370) which requires licensed child care programs to provide parents/guardians with information regarding lead exposure and blood testing.
BB/E 9323.2 - Actions by the Board (BB/E(1)/E(2) revised)
Bylaw updated to reference the timelines by which a civil action may be filed to determine the applicability of the Brown Act to past board actions, and to clarify the circumstances under which a board action cannot be invalidated. Exhibit 1 updated to consolidate several items related to situating a community day school on an existing school site, add board action to respond to an emergency facilities condition without giving notice for bids to let contracts (requiring two-thirds vote for three-member boards, or four-fifths vote for five-member and seven-member boards), and reflect NEW LAW (AB 2249) which amends the threshold requirements for public works projects bid pursuant to the Uniform Public Construction Cost Accounting Act. Section on "Actions Requiring a Unanimous Vote of the Board" updated to further explain the ability to authorize the use of day labor or force account and/or waive the competitive bid process when the board determines that an emergency exists.

WHEREAS, the populations of the trustee areas in all of the proposed trustee area boundary maps now under consideration are substantially equal in population and are drawn to be compact and to contain cohesive, contiguous territory to the extent possible in compliance with legal requirements;
WHEREAS, pursuant to Elections Code section 10010 the District held six public hearings on potential trustee area boundary maps; three public hearings prior to the drafting of any maps (May 7, June 4, and June 18, 2019), two public hearings at which public comment was sought on draft maps (July 9 and August 6, 2019), and a final public hearing at the meeting at which this resolution is considered (September 3, 2019);
WHEREAS, the District posted information about the process and draft maps on its website.
NOW THEREFORE, the Board of Education of the La Mesa-Spring Valley School District hereby resolves, determines, and finds the following:
Section 1. That the foregoing recitals are true. Section 2. That the Board adopts the trustee area boundary map attached hereto

Section 5. That the trustee areas from which Board members shall be elected in November 2022, and every four years thereafter, are Areas 2, 3, and 4.
Section 6. That this resolution shall serve as the District’s proposal to the County Committee. The Board hereby requests that the County Committee approve the establishment of the trustee area boundaries indicated on Exhibit A pursuant to Education Code section 5019, subdivision (c)(1) and establish by-trustee area elections for election of members of the Board pursuant to Education Code section 5030, subdivision (b).
Section 7. That the Superintendent and/or his designee are hereby directed to take all necessary steps to:
(1) submit this resolution to the County Committee pursuant to Education Code section 5019;

La Mesa-Spring Valley School District GOVERNING BOARD AGENDA
September 3, 2019 PREPARED BY: David Feliciano Superintendent
ITEM NUMBER: S-5 New Business Action Item Scenario 6: Adoption of Resolution 19-20-12 Adopting Trustee Area
Boundary Map And Election Sequence For Election Of Members Of The Board Of Education; Submitting Proposal To The San Diego County Committee On School District Organization To Establish By-Trustee Area Elections
Board members are currently elected in “at-large” elections, where each member is elected by voters throughout the District. The California Voting Rights Act (“CVRA”) prohibits the use of “at-large” elections in certain circumstances. “By-trustee-area” elections, in which members are elected by voters in geographical subdivisions of the jurisdiction, are immune from challenge under the CVRA. At its meeting on May 7, 2019, the Board adopted Resolution 18-19-21 indicating its intent to transition from at-large to by-trustee area elections. At that same meeting, the Board provided direction to staff to retain Cooperative Strategies to provide demographic services necessary to develop trustee areas. On June 18, the Board received information about the process for drawing the trustee area boundary map from Cooperative Strategies. On July 9 and August 6, the Board received information regarding the draft trustee area boundary maps from its demographer. The District has posted draft trustee area boundary maps on its website and Board has received additional information from Cooperative Strategies regarding the draft maps and has provided direction regarding the draft maps. Tonight, following a third and final public hearing concerning the draft maps, the Board will consider the draft maps and select a final map and associated election sequence to be submitted to the San Diego County Committee on School District Organization for its consideration and approval. ADMINISTRATIVE RECOMMENDATION It is recommended the Board adopt a resolution to select a final map and associated election sequence.
LA MESA-SPRING VALLEY SCHOOL DISTRICT RESOLUTION NO. 19-20-12
RESOLUTION ADOPTING TRUSTEE AREA BOUNDARY MAP AND
ELECTION SEQUENCE FOR ELECTION OF MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF EDUCATION; SUBMITTING PROPOSAL TO THE SAN DIEGO COUNTY COMMITTEE ON SCHOOL
DISTRICT ORGANIZATION TO ESTABLISH BY-TRUSTEE AREA ELECTIONS
WHEREAS, the La Mesa-Spring Valley School District (“District”) is governed by a five member Board of Education (“Board”);
WHEREAS, members of the Board are elected “at large,” in which each member of
the Board is elected by the registered voters of the entire District; WHEREAS, upon application to the San Diego County Committee on School District
Organization, the election of Board members may be transitioned from “at large” to “by-trustee area” elections;
WHEREAS, the California Voting Rights Act (Elec. Code, §§ 14025 et seq.)(“CVRA”)
prohibits the use of “at large” elections where their use impairs the ability of a protected class to elect candidates of its choice, or its ability to influence the outcome of elections; WHEREAS, following discussion of the CVRA and the District’s current at-large elections the Board adopted Resolution No. 18-19-21, which indicated that the Board intended to make the transition from at-large to by-trustee area elections;
WHEREAS, the District retained an experienced demographer to work with its legal counsel and staff to develop proposed trustee area boundary maps;
WHEREAS, multiple proposed trustee area boundary maps were developed during the process and posted for public review on the District’s website;
WHEREAS, the Board narrowed the proposed trustee area boundary maps to two options (Scenario 1 and Scenario 6) which were posted online seven days before consideration of this resolution;
WHEREAS, all proposed trustee area boundary maps incorporate the use of a single-member by-trustee area election system;
WHEREAS, the populations of the trustee areas in all of the proposed trustee area boundary maps now under consideration are substantially equal in population and are drawn to be compact and to contain cohesive, contiguous territory to the extent possible in compliance with legal requirements;
WHEREAS, pursuant to Elections Code section 10010 the District held six public hearings on potential trustee area boundary maps; three public hearings prior to the drafting of any maps (May 7, June 4, and June 18, 2019), two public hearings at which public comment was sought on draft maps (July 9 and August 6, 2019), and a final public hearing at the meeting at which this resolution is considered (September 3, 2019);
WHEREAS, the District posted information about the process and draft maps on its website.
NOW THEREFORE, the Board of Education of the La Mesa-Spring Valley School District hereby resolves, determines, and finds the following:
Section 1. That the foregoing recitals are true. Section 2. That the Board adopts the trustee area boundary map attached hereto
as “Exhibit B” (also known as “Scenario 6”) and believes that its adoption would serve the public interest of the District’s residents and voters.
Section 3. That each Board member shall continue to serve their current terms. Section 4. That the trustee areas from which Board members shall be elected in
November 2020, and every four years thereafter, are Areas 4 and 5.
Section 5. That the trustee areas from which Board members shall be elected in November 2022, and every four years thereafter, are Areas 1, 2, and 3.
Section 6. That this resolution shall serve as the District’s proposal to the County Committee. The Board hereby requests that the County Committee approve the establishment of the trustee area boundaries indicated on Exhibit B pursuant to Education Code section 5019, subdivision (c)(1) and establish by-trustee area elections for election of members of the Board pursuant to Education Code section 5030, subdivision (b).
Section 7. That the Superintendent and/or his designee are hereby directed to take all necessary steps to:
(1) submit this resolution to the County Committee pursuant to Education Code section 5019;
(2) notify the responsible county officials of the Board’s determination and provide whatever assistance may be required to implement the Board’s direction for future election of Board members; and,
(3) take any action and/or execute any documents which are necessary to carry
out, give effect to, and comply with the terms and intent of this resolution.

ITEM NUMBER: LS-1 New Business Action Item Authorization to enter into Agreement with San Diego County Office of
Education for Middle School Teacher NGSS Training On September 4, 2013, the State Board of Education adopted the Next Generation Science Standards for California Public Schools, Kindergarten through Grade Twelve (CA NGSS). By 2016 a new Science Curriculum Framework was adopted, and the California Department of Education then released a list of approved Science Instructional Materials in 2018. This is the process that typically precedes any new curriculum adoption in a school district. During the current school year, 7th/8th grade science teachers will be conducting an in-depth preview of NGSS aligned materials and planning for a pilot in 2020-21. In preparation for a materials preview, the district is partnering with the San Diego County Office of Education (SDCOE) to provide three days of professional learning for all of the district 7th-8th grade science teachers. The professional learning will focus on expanding professional knowledge of the NGSS instructional shifts, developing a shared understanding of high-quality science instruction, and supporting the planning process with new and existing curriculum.
