CONSENT CALENDAR Type Action (Consent) Recommended Action It is recommended that the Governing Board approve the request to allow the Franklin High School band participate in the Santa Cruz Band Review in Santa Cruz, California, and represent the Stockton Unified School District in Santa Cruz. INTRODUCTION The Band Department at Franklin High School is excited to bring back a competitive marching band, complete with an auxiliary color guard line, to the Franklin High School community. In order to not only bring more exposure to the group, but to allow students to experience what a marching band does, we will be participating in multiple band reviews. These band reviews are competitions with various schools across Northern California gathered to march in a parade and are adjudicated. By playing at these band reviews, it will allow for the students to perform before a large audience, show all the hard work they have put in these last few months, and give a performance to represent our school and district. ANALYSIS The Santa Cruz Band Review is located in Santa Cruz, California. The group will arrive at Franklin High School, and commute by bus to Santa Cruz. The students will then prepare for their parade competition to take place on a closed street in front of the Board Walk. After competing, students will then receive time in the boardwalk where they can choose to play arcade games or ride the rides at the board walk. Between the Certificated teacher, the band assist, and two SUSD fingerprinted volunteers, the students to chaperone ratio is 12:1, not including parent volunteers.

INTRODUCTION The indicator of a high quality Career Technical Education (CTE) is participation in a Career Technical Student Organization. The Stagg High Agriculture programs participate in Future Farmers of America (FFA). FFA offers a diverse set of opportunities at a local, sectional, regional, state and national level for students to participate in a variety of leadership development conferences and conventions as well as competing in various competitions. Some of these, such as the state FFA convention among others, are required in order to keep in good standing with the California FFA. Participating in these activities will raise the quality of our students, our program and our community. ANALYSIS It is the intention of the teachers of Stagg FFA to maximize the number of students participating in these events. We require our students to have a 2.0 GPA, be in good academic standing in their Ag classes and must complete various applications in order to represent their FFA chapters. We ask this general approval item be considered in order that we may efficiently prepare for our various overnight activities and our field trips that require students and staff to travel over or near water.
