Oskar Zambrano commented on the interview process he had

been involved with several weeks earlier for a Police Chief, and his

disappointment that the selected candidate had not been presented to

the Board for approval. Staff explained the selection process and that a

committee’s selection may not necessarily be brought to the Board.

There was consensus among the Board Members to include a statement

on the confidentiality statement for members of interview panels to this

effect.

In the event the Board did not appoint a School Police Chief from

two pending interviews, the Board voted to use a search firm at a cost of

$17,500.00 plus approximately $6,800.00 in expenses and to continue

utilizing the services of the present Chief at Sargent pay for 30 days, and

directed the Superintendent to expedite the process.

Request

The Superintendent shared an invitation to the San Bernardino

County Superintendent of Schools State of Education address where the

Fontana High School Marine Corps Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps

would be presenting the colors.

Correspondence

Oscar Dueñas, Associate Superintendent of Instructional Services,

shared information that District staff had attended and presented at the

recent California Association of Bilingual Educators conference in Long

Beach, and received recognition for their work on the District’s Seal of

Biliteracy.

Mark McLaughlin, Director of Certificated Human Resources,

thanked Mr. Zambrano for bringing his concerns forward; he wanted to

make sure district staff did not become entrenched in routine practices

and he wanted to make sure they were making the best

recommendations.

Randal Bassett, Chief Technology Officer, had no comments.

School Police Sergeant John Avalos had no comments.

Administrator

Comments

Board Member Green commented on visiting the family of the

student who had died, and asked what the protocol was when a visitor

at Board meetings was asked to leave. Attorney Medina explained that

because Board meetings were held in public the only reason a member

of the public could be asked to leave was if they were causing

disruptions or otherwise hindering the ability of the Board to conduct its

business.

Board

Member

President Hawthorn explained that he had noticed a gentleman

walk in wearing a heavy coat and carrying a bag, and due to recent

events in other school districts asked the Superintendent to have

Sergeant Avalos talk to the man as a precaution. Sergeant Avalos noted

that the person had left on his own and had been there for a different

item other than what was on the evening’s agenda and would come

back on a different date. Board Member Green continued that she had

a four-year-old daughter who watched the meetings and had asked

why Linda was so hateful. She provided information for the public that

she held several degrees and agreed with Bobbi Jo that the hatefulness

had gone on too long, and she was getting to the point where she

would start to respond from the dais. She thought people like Linda were

fueled by a former Board member; they were not talking from their heart

but because they were being sent by another person, they were the

same people who came and talked about Board Member Garcia and

were more hateful than anyone she had ever met.

Board Member Garcia noted that, regarding a statement made

during public comments, she was allowed to leave the dais and relieve

herself when she had to; she was there to do the work of the District and

people could see that such work was being accomplished despite all

the attempts to distract and be hateful. She had heard from employees

asking what the person was talking about and stated that she was OK

with people being critical of herself but she was not OK with anyone who

came to the podium to talk about members of her family; that was off

limits and if necessary she would “lawyer up”. She thanked staff who

were working hard to get things done despite being short-handed; the

CBO job was a huge thing to be handling and they had to make it a

priority to get someone in that position; she looked forward to a special

meeting to make an interim appointment.

Board Member Corona thanked principals for the opportunity to

walk schools, talk to teachers, parents and kids, it was a wonderful

community. She had talked to Academic Pathway Advisors,

Comprehensive Student Support Providers, and others who were going

above and beyond, using their personal time, and she was very grateful.

She thanked Cindy for attending and speaking about the fundraiser for

scholarships and looked forward to working with others to make the

program a success. She apologized to the audience for having to cope

with challenges and disrespect; it was not directed towards the

community, staff members or students, their positive input would help

them move forward, they believed they had a wonderful community.

She also thanked the Superintendent for being very kind, and thanked

staff members as she was learning step by step; they were there to

advocate for the community and had no hidden agendas. She was

looking for a place at the District Office where she could meet with

community members the first and second Thursdays of every month.

Vice President Chavez shared that she truly loved the community

and the students of the community. She quoted Pope John Paul and

expressed the need to show love, to be quiet and listen and not quick to

answer. She commented on attending Coffee with the Principals and

that the topic of bullying kept coming up; she asked the administrators to

please do their jobs. She spoke of being involved in a survey through the

District English Learners Advisory Council and of a mental health

presentation than had to do with drugs and alcohol. She thanked Victor

Sanchez for his comments, and noted that as an advocate she had

concerns with the 504 plan.

President Hawthorn provided information on an upcoming cancer

survivor ice cream social, commented on the recent proliferation of solar

panels and asked to find out how those had worked out for other districts

and to take another look at implementing solar energy if the rest of the

Board so agreed. He then asked for Counsel to clarify and provide a

legal opinion on whether the process used to select a Supplemental

Early Retirement Program had been legal. Attorney Medina shared that

as the SERP contract was for professional services it did not need to go

through a Request For Proposals and that the selection process that staff

had undertaken was legal. Board Member Green noted that she had

two issues; one that a person got a denial letter before the closing

deadline, and the second that an employee had sent the denial letter

and she thought that it was a Board decision as to whether or not

something was approved. Attorney Medina explained that the process

had been handled properly; it was appropriate for staff to send

notification letters to the applicants advising of their recommendation,

but it would ultimately be the Board’s decision whether or not to

approve the recommendation. President Hawthorn then asked Attorney

Medina if it was legal and appropriate when responding to requests by

the Superintendent or staff on Board Members’ availability for special

meetings to copy the other Board members. Attorney Medina replied

that it was completely OK; the Brown Act applied only to actions, and it

was best not to reply all or comment on the substance of the meeting.

Board

Member

Comments,

continued

Superintendent Olsen-Binks noted that after reviewing the

availability of staff and Board Members as well as those who had an

interest it seemed that Wednesday would be best for a special meeting

on the rifles and counseling program. To provide the Board with the

opportunity to work through the budget process before Reduction In

Force notifications had to go out, she suggested a Tuesday meeting for

a budget study session. The Board provided consensus to schedule both

meetings.

Superintendent

Comments


26

Board Member Garcia asked Attorney Medina if it would be fair to

have a discussion of the CSSPs before the special meeting; she felt the

items she had requested had been pushed back. Attorney Medina

replied that there was no legal answer to that question; with the way the

Superintendent was suggesting the Board would have facts related to

the budget before; it was a matter of what made the most sense, if they

wanted to combine both into one meeting that was fine. Superintendent

Olsen-Binks shared that the two meetings would serve different purposes;

the workshop would be a study session with opportunities for questions

and to receive information before going into the Board meeting on

Wednesday. She then acknowledged Vice President Chavez for her

comments on bullying and shared that she and the Chief planned to

work on a defined process for administrators to follow; it was one of the

Chief’s priorities. She noted that the 504 training would be revisited, and

that staff was working on teacher and classified employee of the year

recognition as well as a parent recognition program.

ITEM TITLE: Claim BOARD OF EDUCATION MEETING: 03/13/13 Consent Calendar Session BACKGROUND: Fontana Unified School District contracts with Southern California Relief as a third party administrator to handle and adjust Property/Liability claims submitted against the District. However, in some instances there are claims that can also be handled directly by Fontana Unified School District. Ann Evans parked her car in the West Randall Elementary School parking lot. When Ms. Evans returned to her car, she noticed that her vehicle had been struck by another vehicle. The District’s video surveillance cameras do not cover that area. Since it was a vehicle vs. a vehicle incident, it would not be a covered claim. The responsible party would be the owner of the vehicle who struck Ms. Evan’s vehicle. FISCAL IMPLICATION: Amount: Undetermined at this time RECOMMENDATION: The Superintendent recommends that the Board of Education reject the claim for an undetermined amount submitted by Ann Evans as recommended by the Fontana Unified School District Risk Management Department.

AND EQUIPMENT FROM VERIZON WIRELESS OFF THE WESTERN STATES CONTRACTING ALLIANCE (WSCA)

WHEREAS, pursuant to Public Contract Code Section 12100 Department of General Services is authorized to make purchases of wireless communication service and equipment on behalf of school districts and other local governmental agencies; and WHEREAS, the purchase or leases of such goods and services by the Department of General Services are to be made upon the same terms conditions and specifications at a price lower than the District can obtain through its normal acquisition procedures; and WHEREAS, the Western States Contracting Alliance (WSCA) has contracts for wireless communication service and equipment which the District needs to purchase in order to complete the project identified below; and WHEREAS, based upon the facts identified below and information presented to the Governing Board, it is in the best interest of the District to purchase wireless communication services and equipment from Verizon Wireless, who currently has contracts in good standing with WSCA. This authorization is requested for the 2013/2014 school year (through June 30, 2014). NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED: SECTION 1. FACTS SUPPORTING PURCHASE OFF WSCA Verizon Wireless has provided wireless communication services and equipment for surrounding businesses for many years. They are in good standing with Universal Service Administrative Company (USAC) and are aware of our District’s standards and needs.

ITEM TITLE: Resolution BOARD OF EDUCATION MEETING: 03/13/13 Discussion/Action Session

BACKGROUND: March 31st marks the 83rd anniversary of the birth of one of the nation’s foremost civil rights and labor leaders, Cesar Estrada Chavez. In 1952 Chavez co-founded the National Farm Workers Association and led human rights campaigns throughout California. Cesar Chavez became an organizer for Community Service Organization (CSO), coordinating voter registration drives, battling racial and economic discrimination against Chicano residents, and organizing new chapters of the CSO across California and Arizona; he went on to serve as national director of the CSO in the late 1950's and early 1960's; after failing to convince the CSO to commit to helping migrant farm workers in organizing, he quit his job and founded the National Farm Workers Association (NFWA). He was nominated three times for the Nobel Peace Prize. During his lifetime, Cesar Estrada Chavez led a national movement to improve the lives of migrant farm workers. FISCAL IMPLICATION: None RECOMMENDATION: The Superintendent recommends that the Board of Education adopt Resolution No. 13-18 recognizing César Chávez Day. ODueñas/td

Resolution 13-18

Fontana Unified School District Board of Education

Whereas César Estrada Chávez was a leader for civil rights, Latinos, farm workers, and labor; a community servant and social entrepreneur; a crusader for nonviolent social change; an environmentalist and consumer advocate; and, in the words of Robert F. Kennedy, “one of the heroic figures of our time,” and Whereas César Chávez’s dream was to create an organization to protect and serve farm workers, whose poverty and disenfranchisement he had shared. Chávez led the first successful farm workers union in American history, achieving dignity, respect, fair wages, medical coverage, pension benefits, and humane living conditions, as well as countless other rights and protections for hundreds of thousands of farm workers; and Whereas César Chávez’s organization became, in 1966, the United Farm Workers of America, AFL-CIO, which shares, in common with all organized labor, the goals of dignity, respect, fair wages, medical coverage and pension protections for old age; and Whereas the life of César Chávez transcends any one cause or struggle. He was a unique and humble labor leader, and a great humanitarian and communicator who influences and inspired millions of Americans from many diverse walks of life to seek social justice and civil rights for the poor and disenfranchised in our society; and Whereas the Fontana Unified School District Board of Education recognizes the contributions and accomplishments of César Chávez and encourages all schools to conduct appropriate school activities in observance of his birthday on March 31st. Now, therefore, be it resolved that the Fontana Unified School District Board of Education recognizes and supports celebrating César Chávez Day.

ITEM TITLE: Resolution BOARD OF EDUCATION MEETING: 03/13/13 Discussion/Action Session

BACKGROUND: The Fontana Unified School District regularly adopts resolutions in recognition of special events related to education.

Such experience is beneficial in their work to effectively and efficiently lead public education and improve student achievement. It is, therefore, requested that the Board of Education support March 3-9, 2013 as the Week of the School Administrator. FISCAL IMPLICATION: None RECOMMENDATION: The Superintendent recommends that the Board of Education adopt Resolution 13-20 recognizing March 3-9, 2013 as Week of the School Administrator in recognition to school administrators for contributions they make to successful student achievement.
