REQUESTS TO ADDRESS THE BOARD 2.a Public Communications Joel Schlossman, community member, spoke about the Brown Act and its importance in civic meetings, and suggested that from time to time the Board Members discuss agenda items outside of the meetings, which he feels is a violation of the Brown Act. He disagrees with the practice of Board Members using electronic devices during the meetings, wonders what they are doing, and says they are not paying attention. He reminded the Board Members that he is still waiting for the results of his two PRA requests. Jenny Lynn Deahl, community member who participated via Zoom Webinar, asked for clarification about the process for promoting a college assistance program offered by her employer New York Life. She commended all of the Board Members and staff present for their hard work during this challenging time. 2.b Staff Responses Superintendent Hill told Ms. Deahl she could email him directly and provided his work email address. He indicated to Mr. Schlossman that his PRA requests are being worked on by our Technology Services staff, which continues to be short-staffed. He said that the Board Members did discuss the use of pronouns and the Native American land acknowledgment at a Board meeting prior to asking staff to implement those items. 2.c Board Members' Responses Clerk Weisberg thanked Ms. Deahl for thinking about the District with regard to the program her employer is offering. President Tabet clarified that the State of the Schools is a fundraising event and that all attendees, including employees and Board Members, buy tickets.
