New Business Type Action BACKGROUND: Since fall 2020, the Board of Education and Superintendent have been working to implement the Student Outcome Focused Governance approach. The transition to this approach has included participation in training by board members and staff members and coaching provided by staff from the Council of Great City Schools (CGCS). In fall 2024, the Board of Education began working with CGCS staff and special legal counsel to review and update Board bylaws aligned to the Student Outcome Focused Governance approach. On December 7, 2024, the Board held a workshop/study session to, in part, review draft bylaws requested by the Board and developed in collaboration with CGCS and special counsel. On March 19, 2025, all proposed Board bylaws, with suggested edits, were published to the Board and the public on that meeting's agenda. At that same meeting, the Board approved a timeline to review remaining draft bylaws. Bylaws 9020 and 9021 were approved for public discussion and vote at this Board meeting. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Board discuss and consider approving Board Bylaws 9020 and 9021.

New Business Type BACKGROUND Since fall 2020, the Board of Education and Superintendent have been working to implement the Student Outcome Focused Governance (SOFG) approach. The transition to this approach has included participation in training by board members and staff members and coaching provided by staff from the Council of Great City Schools. The early transition to Student Outcome Focused Governance included several milestones, such as the development of a board handbook and set of board bylaws, transition to a consent calendar for standing business items, the development of Board Goals and Guardrails, and the initial use of the board self-evaluation tool. On March 5, 2025, the Board approved the Student Outcome Focused Governance Implementation Timeline (SOFG Timeline). The Board directed that the SOFG Timeline be included as a standing agenda item to ensure that the remaining aspects of the SOFG approach are installed into the work of the LBUSD governance team. The Board intends to review and update the timeline quarterly. Community engagement is a key component of the work of the Board and of Student Outcome Focused Governance. To increase community engagement, the SOFG Implementation Team developed a draft plan that outlines strategies for the Board to actively listen to and engage with the community to inform decisions that ultimately benefit student outcomes. RECOMMENDATION The Board will review the SOFG Timeline and take action, as necessary. The Board will also review and discuss the draft Community Outreach Plan: Amplifying Community Voices for Student Success.

On March 5, 2025, the Board approved the Student Outcome Focused Governance Implementation Timeline (SOFG Timeline). The SOFG Timeline included a target that the Board would develop and/or include specific language into an Ethics and Conflict of Interest Statement that is committed to by Board members. A draft Ethics and Conflict of Interest Statement was created that includes summary language from the Board’s bylaws and additional statutory language related to conflicts of interest. RECOMMENDATION The Board will review and discuss the draft Ethics and Conflict of interest Statement.
