He said that his student was asked about pronouns today in school and that he feels that might be illegal and that providing that information could subject the person to discrimination. He feels that Superintendent Hill has been weak and reactionary on Covid-19. He feels he is a weak leader. LAUSD is ordering all staff to be vaccinated and he believes that BUSD should, as well. 2.b Staff Responses Superintendent Hill offered to give Mr. Schlossman resources that explain gender identity. 2.c Board Members' Comments and Responses Dr. Weisberg also stressed the importance of using pronouns and also offered resources as l to Mr. Schlossman.

Clerk Ferguson also requested staff work with legal counsel to identify a potential pathway for a student vaccine mandate after FDA approval and observing all legal exemptions. 10. REQUESTS TO ADDRESS THE BOARD 10.a Public Communications Joel Schlossman, resident, was called to speak. He complimented Clerk Ferguson on his leadership with regard to Covid. He noted that, surprisingly, 30% of the police and fire of the City of Burbank are

Board of Education 30 Regular Meeting – August 19, 2021 unvaccinated. He said he is upset that the names of the victims of the recent car crash involving street racing were announced, but not the names of those who caused the accident. He said he thinks if President Frintner can participate remotely, then members of the public should be allowed to, as well. He is frustrated by the noreply@burbankusd.org emails and the fact that when Superintendent Hill records a video he turns off the comments. Marirose Occhiogrosso was called to speak. She came tonight to rebut many of the comments that were made by the public at the last meeting, which she felt were homophobic and transphobic. She spoke in support of the steps she sees the District taking to improve inclusivity. Susan Francisco, Burbank Coordinating Council, was called to speak. She described the various activities that BCC is currently holding, including a clothing sale and the start of holiday basket season. She said BCC is asking the District to hold food and toy drives to support the holiday baskets, and asked donors who are interested in sponsoring families to visit their website (www.burbankcc.org) for more information. Roberto Villalta, BUSD custodian, was called to speak. Nuria Lundberg translated the first portion of his comments. He provided his work history with the District, noting that he currently is a custodian at Dolores Huerta Middle School. He said he is grateful for the opportunity to work for BUSD. He thanked Superintendent Hill and Clerk Ferguson for visiting his school. He said he would like to know why the custodians of BUSD are not being paid overtime. He said the custodial team continued to work all through the pandemic, on the front line, while other employees got to work at home. He said he feels like the District does not see them and how hard they work, and said he is very sad about the recent failure of their request for reclassification during negotiations. He says he feels that if they were unable to get the reclassification during this challenging time of the pandemic and all of the extra work it entails, he doubts if they will be granted one in the future. He said he wants parents in the District to know how the District treats the custodians. He feels that some employees get their reclassifications because they are friends with someone or members of certain groups, which is discrimination. He says he hopes that their reclassification can go through next time. Andrew Francisco, Dolores Huerta Middle School student, was called to speak. He thanked Clerk Ferguson for his statements at the beginning of the meeting with regard to testing. He spoke about the past year and the struggle with Covid-19 and the confusing communications with regard to Covid protocols. He said he feels that Covid testing will need to be done regularly. He said at his school, approximately 800 students were not tested on the day that only 300 students were tested and that he thinks this is unacceptable. He said that we really need to step up with regard to testing. Roger Graham, parent, was called to speak. He complimented staff and the Board on how well they have handled things. He spoke about the mural at Dolores Huerta Middle School. He thinks most of it is great, but he asked staff to revisit some of the aspects of the mural including the clothing of some of the children pictured and some of the features shown, such as the Black Lives Matter sign and another image that appears to feature the logo colors of PLO which should not be included as it is promoting a political organization. He also questioned why the only country flag shown was the flag of Armenia; he feels that this should be a U.S. or California flag instead to be more inclusive. Louis Ayala, President, California School Employees Association (CSEA), was called to speak. He said that CSEA strongly opposes any employees losing their jobs over health mandates. He said they support a safe working environment. He asked that the District provide reasonable accommodations for employees who are unable to get vaccinated due to underlying health conditions and religious objections. He said

Board of Education 31 Regular Meeting – August 19, 2021 that while he appreciates that the custodians lost out on their requested reclass, he feels that we need help not just money. He said custodians are being asked to clean every desk and chair between classes in every classroom and that they just don't have enough manpower. He said we need to increase that department's funding so that they can get more help. He worries about the health of the District custodians who, on average, are age 50. He said that CSEA has a good working relationship with the District and that they are committed to working together to find reasonable solutions to prioritize the kids and our staff to keep the schools open so we don't have to shut them down. Halle Mitchell, former BUSD student, was called to speak. She spoke in support of the District's anti- racist policies because she says there is considerable racism in our schools, which she experienced first- hand as a student. She said it is frustrating to hear people say there is no racism when they are not even the ones experiencing it. Eventually, she had to leave the District to be home schooled in order to get better and to heal herself. She said that should not be the solution and that students should be listened to and heard. Mary Cutone, Burbank Community YMCA, was called to speak. She thanked the District for working towards counteracting racism. She said that the YMCA is also committed to being an anti-racist organization. She said the YMCA stands with the District and she applauds the work we are doing. Africa Turner, parent, was called to speak. She spoke about the District's Anti-Racist Statement. She said she watched the previous Board of Education meeting and she felt like she was transported back to the 1950s. She questioned what person would not want to have their school district work towards eliminating racism. She applauded our Anti-Racist Statement and says she stands behind it 100%. Rubina Nikoghosyan, parent, was called to speak. She said her son cannot wear a mask and asked if her son could pull his mask down during class. She said if that is not possible she will need to take him out of class and bring him home to work with a tutor. She said she needs to get an answer as soon as possible so she knows what she and her son will have to do. Faith Bond-Wyatt, parent, was called to speak. She doesn't understand why people are wearing masks in the open air when they are all alone. She said she believes that the government is bribing people to take the vaccine. She said that she feels that we are forcing people to take the vaccine, which has not yet been approved by the FDA. She showed two CDC charts (case rates and death counts) and said she feels the spike up from the Delta variant really amounts to "nothing." She wants to know where is the emergency? She said she feels that we are trying to force her 15-year-old son to take a vaccine she believes is experimental. She also said we are trying to force her son to take a PCR test that has also not been approved.. Jessica Stamen, parent, was called to speak. She said she was thrilled by the Anti-Racist Statement that the District put out. She said she feels the only way we can learn is to look at our past. She said that she believes the majority of parents in Burbank believe deeply in diversity and equity. Polly Stenberg, parent, was called to speak. She spoke in Spanish to Mr. Villalta and said that her heart is with Mr. Villalta and his colleagues. She said this is the extension of our Anti-Racist Statement in practice and that we have to advocate for all District staff members to make sure they get the pay they deserve. She said she is here to renew our shared call to action to end racism. She said we need to examine our history, learn where racist ideas and beliefs originated from, and work to dismantle these constructs.

Board of Education 32 Regular Meeting – August 19, 2021 Nadra Ostrom, parent, was called to speak. She is a member of the DEI Committee and said she is proud of the work we are doing, which she feels is only beginning. She said she was there to echo the voices of the students who have faced discrimination. She said that she understands how some White families might misunderstand or fear what we are trying to achieve. She said that only seven students in her daughter's class at Disney have been tested. She said there is approximately 14 positive cases in the District so far and 50 people in quarantine. She urged the District to move to mandated testing. She said that it is not "nothing," and that even one death is something. She said that thinking back to all the time she was home she now regretted that she never thanked a custodian because she realizes how hard their work is. Carmenita Helligar, parent, was called to speak. She said she wanted to thank our custodians and said they have been so helpful to the students and to their school sites and said they are very important to Burbank families. She said our entire existence is steeped in White supremacy. She read out the dictionary definitions of the words White and Black, which she feels are the very definitions of racism and bias. She said we need to stamp out racism now. Jared Gertner, parent, was called to speak. He thanked the District for keeping our children safe. He said that he believes in the anti-racist work the District is doing. He said that he is also totally in favor of vaccinations and mandatory testing. He said his son said it was "super easy and took five seconds." He said he hopes we can work towards a testing mandate. Liz Ludwig Bax, parent, was called to speak. Her eldest daughter is a senior and she has expressed how much she feels she has missed so far and that, as her mother, she wanted to thank us for all the efforts the District has undertaken to get kids back to class. She said that she is a little concerned with how the testing is going. She said that when she returned to work, they wore masks every day for 14 hours and also wore face shields in the beginning. She wanted to know how the District would handle false positives and she emphasized how much she wants her children to stay in class. She urged everyone to get vaccinated. Chantal Sampogna, parent, was called to speak. She said that she believed that there was a lack of transparency and a Brown Act violation when the District changed the number of instructional minutes for elementary students without sufficient notice to parents. Parents were asked to sign an acknowledgment form in the handbook, but that form contained the previous amount of instructional time. She said it was never placed on any agenda and that the public was never informed. She said this lack of transparency is extremely problematic. She says these behind-the-scenes discussions and actions should be addressed. James Morrison, parent, was called to speak. He said that when he was working from home during Covid he would listen to his wife's DEI Committee meetings and he said he felt those meetings were always a bit off and that he felt that the real problem is a lack of diversity in our schools among the teaching staff. He said he looks at the Board Members and he doesn't see anyone who looks like him, which saddens him. He suggested that the experience of the former student who spoke and felt ostracized at school would have been very different if there had been someone on School Board who looked like her. He said we should really investigate the diversity of our teachers and said that he believes there has to be more African-American and Latino applicants. He believes that if there was more diversity in the classroom, the use of the "N" word in a novel wouldn't even be an issue. Rosemary Morrison, parent, was called to speak. She spoke about how she got involved with DEI work after the death of George Floyd. She said the last Board Meeting broke her heart. She said that listening to

Board of Education 33 Regular Meeting – August 19, 2021 people scream about White lives not mattering enraged her. She spoke about the Social Studies curriculum in 8th grade and 11th grade and said that in grade 11 American History should be taught past the Civil War and that the lessons should include the Reconstruction, which altered the path for African Americans. She said masks are important. She says she doesn't like them but they are important and they are helping. She said she is very disappointed in the poor communication about testing from the District. She said it was confusing about what it meant for her health insurance and medical bills and that she had a hard time getting answers on many Covid-related topics. She thanked our custodians for their hard work. Sabrina Roth, parent, was called to speak. She said she grew up in a city in Northern California of similar size to Burbank. She said she was bussed to a different community as part of an integration program from kindergarten through third grade and then the student exchange was reversed from fourth through sixth grade. She said that even if her kids here in Burbank don't have the same ethnic diversity growing up that she had in her childhood, she wants them to learn more about diversity and racial injustice. She said she supports the District's Anti-Racist Statement. Finn Krol, student, was called to speak. He spoke about the importance of pronouns, which are used to describe a person's gender identity. He said he is transgendered and that he wears a pronoun pin at school to keep from being misgendered. He said cisgendered people do not have to do that and that they are privileged and he envies them because they do not have to feel uncomfortable in public. He asked the Board to start introducing themselves with their pronouns during meetings because it makes him feel supported. He said using our pronouns will promote inclusivity and fairness and create community. Linda Bitto, Burbank High School employee, was called to speak. She said she worked every day alongside our custodians and that they are rock stars. She says she loves the American people but she does not trust our government. She read off a list of abuses by our government throughout American history and said that people should have choices regarding masking and vaccinations. She provided a list of reasons that students should not have to wear masks. She says that people should wear a mask if they feel it helps and that they should not have to wear one if they feel it involves risks to their health. She said that she believes that vaccinations should be completely voluntary. 10.b Staff Responses Superintendent Hill thanked the speakers and identified himself as Dr. Hill and said that he uses the pronouns "he" and "him." He said that the District is focused on love, tolerance, acceptance, and inclusion. He thanked the speakers for sharing their personal stories. He realizes that there has been some confusion in communication, but he said we will continue to improve and he believes that vaccinations and masks have been scientifically proven to work. He said moving towards mandates is a step the District needs to examine. He said that staff has heard hundreds of stories about students being discriminated against and that it is hard to hear people stating that racism does not exist in Burbank schools. He said that first we have to apologize. He explained how inter-district permits work and that students who live outside the District and attend Burbank schools are not taking funding away from other students and, in fact, are preventing the District from laying off teachers. He said we welcome students and families on inter-district permits due to declining enrollment. These students do not affect class size ratios. He thanked Ms. Francisco for highlighting the work of the Coordinating Council and spotlighting the need within our community. He thanked Mr. Villalta and said that he knows there is a feeling among some employees that they are second-class citizens within the District and said that we cannot operate the District without our custodians, without every employee, and he said he will further explore the issues surrounding overtime. He clarified that he did not promise the custodians a reclassification, but rather that the District would follow the contractual process with regard to reclassification. He explained that he did

Board of Education 34 Regular Meeting – August 19, 2021 not say that if they applied for a reclassification again that it would change or guarantee a reclassification, but rather that employees do have the ability to submit annually for a reclassification. He said there is no favoritism in the reclassification process. He said the District would look into the issues brought up regarding the new Dolores Huerta mural. He said they would focus on the legal issues surrounding mandating vaccines and work through any concerns during the bargaining process. He thanked Mr. Ayala for his partnership and the working relationship we have with CSEA. Regarding concerns about the custodial workload, he said the District did put in the Covid funding to hire additional custodians as more of a Covid response team and that is something they were working through to get people hired. We are working with a very thin team in this District and that hiring is challenging right now and everyone is doing extra work because of their love for students and education. He said that the District is looking into using face shields for students who have health issues or trouble wearing masks but, for now, we have to have all students and employees wear masks. If that doesn't work for some families, the District does offer an Independent Study option. He said that he has studied the health issues surrounding Covid-19 in depth and that he doesn't just take opinions for granted, but does his own research. He said that he has weighed up the risks and benefits and that he has personally decided to be vaccinated. He said that the District may have to move to mandated testing, but that staff is exploring all options and watching the numbers of positive cases. He explained that the instructional minutes change was not a Brown Act violation because it was a decision made as part of the bargaining process and thus the discussions were held during Closed Session as part of non-negotiated items. He admitted the transparency and communication could have been better. He said that due to budget constraints and the loss of our elementary P.E. teachers, the instructional minutes had to be reduced. He said that diversity in the District's hiring practices is a part of the DEI work the District is currently engaged in. He invited Mr. Morrison to become involved with the Employee Resource Group (ERG). He invited anyone to whom he did not have an opportunity to respond to email him. 10.c Board Members' Comments and Responses Member Aghakhanian introduced himself using the pronouns of "he" and "him." He provided some personal stories and examples of why he believes in the science behind masking and vaccinations and the work the District is doing to counteract racism. He says he feels he pain of racism, and that our students feel the pain of racism, every day, which is why he and Clerk Ferguson started the DEI Committee. He said that, as a scholar, he is choosing to follow science. He thanked Mr. Villalta for everything he does and said he believes in continuing the conversation about what the needs are. Member Weisberg thanked everyone involved including UMe Credit Union for the Employee Appreciation event and thanked everyone who worked on the Dolores Huerta fundraiser. She thanked Nuria Lundberg for translating this evening. She introduced herself and said she uses the pronouns "she" and "her." She thanked all of the speakers and said that the entire Board takes Ms. Mitchell's story seriously and that they were working hard to address the discrimination she experienced while she was a student at BUSD. She thanked the members of the DEI Committee who spoke tonight and shared their personal stories and said she was deeply appreciative of them coming in the midst of the pandemic. She thanked Mr. Villalta and said she was grateful for the work that he and the entire custodial staff has done and is doing. She said she hoped we get backup staff soon. She said that the District would look into the issues brought up with regard to the Huerta mural. She said she felt it was a false comparison to compare historic tragedies like the Tuskegee Airmen experiment and forced sterilization to public health mandates designed to keep people safe. She said that no one likes wearing a mask, but that we need to do it to keep each other safe. She said that the vaccines have five times as many trials as other drugs and that these medications are not experimental. She thanked Clerk Ferguson for suggesting bringing forward the two resolutions designed to keep people safe. She addressed the topic of hiring diversity, and that the District

Board of Education 35 Regular Meeting – August 19, 2021 is looking into ways to recruit more employees of color, and said she hopes more diverse people run for School Board in the future. Clerk Ferguson thanked all of the speakers. He said that every person in the District is getting more work to do and he said that he felt that Mr. Villalta brought up some legitimate concerns and said he wanted to work together to address some of these issues. He introduced himself and said his pronouns are "he" and "him" and he asked to have their nameplates redone to reflect their pronouns and will ask that Burbank Channel 6 include them during their broadcast, as well. He admonished Mr. Schlossman for laughing about the gender issue and potentially making a student feel unsafe. He said they would look into the issues brought up about the Huerta mural. He said he hears Mr. Villalta's fears and said that he is listening. He said that staff is extremely overworked. He said that he understands parents' struggles with children who are having trouble wearing masks. He said they would do their best to work with parents. He said that as a Board they cannot control people's individual choices like travelling out of town, but that they will use the measures at their disposal. He asked the public's help in lowering the temperature and de-escalating the situation. If you hear about cases, he asked people to visit our website or email the Superintendent rather than post "I heard..." stories on social media. He encouraged people to thank a member of the BUSD staff. He thanked UMe and the Burbank High School administrative team for their work on the Employee Appreciation event. President Frintner thanked all of the speakers and said he understood that some students have issues with masking and that District staff will work with them. He clarified that he was not attending the meeting virtually from home, but rather that he had a personal situation that necessitated travel out of the state. He said the District would look into the issues brought up with regard to the Huerta mural. He introduced himself as Board President Frintner and said that he uses the pronouns "he, him, and his." He said that he is involved with, and a founding member of, the PFLAG Burbank chapter and that they have had discussions about pronouns and how important they are and why some people prefer to use "they." He thanked Finn Krol for having the courage to come forward to discuss this topic. He said he agreed with Ms. Morrison's comments regarding the teaching of American History. He said that the percentage of students who have issues with wearing a mask is very low. He said everything he has seen has shown that masking and vaccination have reduced the spread of Covid-19. He thanked the speakers who came out in support of the District-adopted Anti-Racist Statement and the DEI initiatives that the District is pursuing, and which have only just begun. He said that no student should come to school and feel unsafe. Vice President Tabet thanked staff and the UMe Credit Union for sponsoring the Employee Appreciation event. She thanked the Burbank Human Relations Council for hosting the Dolores Huerta Middle School fundraiser. She said we still have a lot of work to do to effect the needed changes at Dolores Huerta Middle School, so if people would like to make a donation, they should contact the Burbank Human Relations Council. She thanked Mr. Villalta for coming out to speak and noted that there were some rough things to hear in what he had to say. She said that the District is not doing a good enough job of showing appreciation for the work of custodians, grounds people, cafeteria workers, front office workers, in short, the people who keep the District functioning. She said the students were really excited to return to school and, for her, that means that people wear masks and get vaccinated. She thanked the speakers who expressed support for the Anti-Racist Statement. She thanked Finn Krol for speaking and giving her a better understanding of why people are stating and asking others to state their pronouns. She indicated that she uses "she" and "her." 11. REPORTS TO THE BOARD 11.a Superintendent's Comments

Board of Education 36 Regular Meeting – August 19, 2021 Superintendent Hill said he understands 100% how parents are feeling right now, especially parents of children under the age of 12. He said we have 1,700 employees who are committed to taking care of our students. He said that it is the first week of school and we are already at the breaking point, but our students and children need us. He thanked Ms. Cuseo for her work and encouragement in reminding us that we are in the right seats in the right roles right now. 11.b Discussion Regarding the Development of a Policy for Mandating Vaccines for Employees Sarah Niemann, Assistant Superintendent, Human Resources facilitated a discussion regarding the development of a policy for mandating vaccines for all employees. Ms. Niemann utilized a PowerPoint to introduce the main topics and some of the legal guidelines involved in instituting a mandate for employees to be vaccinated. The Board asked clarifying questions regarding medical and religious exemptions and reasonable accommodations. Clerk Ferguson asked for more information with regard to the exemptions and the costs associated with various scenarios and requested a resolution be brought forward to effect a vaccine mandate after full FDA approval. President Frintner asked about the ramifications of a mandate on hiring given current challenging nationwide labor shortages. Clerk Ferguson said if the 60-day-post approval threshold he requested at the last meeting was not reasonable that he would be willing to accept needed adjustments, but with all due urgency. 11.c Report on Facilities and Technology Projects Debbie Kukta, Assistant Superintendent, Administrative Services, reported on Facilities and Technology Projects, as listed on the Consent Agenda, as presented. At 10:23, Board Members mutually agreed to continue the Board Meeting after the 10:00 hour. Clerk Ferguson requested that the Board Bylaw mandating this be brought back to revisit that provision. Clerk Ferguson thanked Ms. Kukta for her work and said he drove by Disney Elementary School and was pleased with the progress. Facilities and Technology PowerPoint_8.19.2021.pdf (OF 28,961) 12.
