Polly Stenberg, Parent, was allowed to join the meeting via a Zoom format. She commented on the recent City Council and Police Commission meeting.

The

Board of Education Regular Meeting – February 18, 2021 173 union will continue to work with staff on a reopening plan to proceed with caution and to keep all staff and students safe.

He then addressed parents Rick Morales, Nadra Ostrom, and Polly Stenberg and thanked them for addressing their concerns regarding the School Resource Officer (SRO) program. He listened to the recent Council and Police Commission joint meeting and heard the comments and discussions. Additionally, Sergeant Turner will report on the SRO program and answer questions tonight. He noted that the Board and he have acknowledged the past by adopting an anti-racist policy to address these issues, as this is a problem in the District, the City and the Country. Through the partnership with the Burbank Police Department/SRO program, he will continue to work to improve where needed, such as parent education and awareness. Additional forums will be created to allow the community to express thoughts and feedback. He was hopeful that Chief LaChasse and Sgt. Turner will continue to work together to improve the program. He then acknowledged Diana Abasta's comments regarding the proposed budget report and noted that the Superintendent's Budget Advisory Committee will review the State and District budget proposals and that the conversation will continue during the Second Interim Report to be presented to the Board on March 18, 2021. The District continues to see declining enrollment and the Board and he need to be thoughtful and resourceful when addressing and adjusting staffing levels, as the goal is to maintain quality instruction. In addition, the Committee is also looking at cost effective strategies. The Cost of Living COLA funding adjustment is good, however, it does not resolve the District budget and must continue to plan for future years in a transparent and thoughtful way with all partners, as the State and the School Services of California offer their own budget predictions. He thanked BTA, CSEA, and BASA employees for working together to bring back small group of students in a safe manner, including safety precautions for both students and staff. The pandemic continues to improve, which will allow more opportunities to continue to layout a road map. The goal is to return to in-person instruction without disruptions. The reopening of school will be done in a safe and thoughtful manner. He then commented on the upcoming Burbank for Armenia book drive to benefit elementary schools and to include diverse education in our schools. He appreciated BTA's support with the virtual Read-In events taking place now, as this was a great month to focus on literacy and the work taking place at District schools. 9.c Board Members' Comments and Responses Member Aghakhanian thanked the Student Board Members for their school reports. He thanked parent Michelle Webster for her comments and passion regarding the renaming of Jordan MS. He heard Mr. Morales, Ms. Ostrom, and Ms. Stenberg concerns regarding the SRO program and noted the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee was formed to address most of their concerns. He agreed that more input is needed and that conversations with the Police Department will continue. He thanked Diana Abasta and Louis Ayala for working together to ensure that the safety of staff is a priority. He announced the Read-In program and thanked the Burbank for Armenia for sponsoring the elementary book drive and all other partners for their collaboration. Member Weisberg thanked all the speakers, but especially Library Coordinator Julie Grene for allowing her to participate in the poetry competition and the Teen Court "restorative justice" event taking place at District high schools. She then thanked the speakers for commenting on the SRO program and noted that

Board of Education Regular Meeting – February 18, 2021 174 looking for clarity and transparency did not mean that someone was anti SRO or Police and that it was not the case tonight, as parents want for more transparency. She thanked Sgt. Turner for working with her, as this was a conversation so that students feel protected and parents understand what is taking place at District schools. Owning the past to make amends is a good start. She heard Ms. Ostrom and Ms. Stenberg and noted that the goal was to get clarity and to continue the partnership. She then thanked Ms. Abasta and the BTA for donating diverse books, for the continued support, and for continuing the conversation will all District stakeholders. Clerk Ferguson thanked Michelle Webster for her comments regarding the renaming of Jordan Middle School and thanked everyone who participated in the conversation to get to this point. He was looking forward to the upcoming report and further discussions. The SRO conversation was important and thanked the City of Burbank for the partnership and for continuing to keep the program alive. The goal is to continue the conversation as students do not think that the program is effective to possibly revise the current model to support students. He thanked Louis Ayala for his comments and for the membership for reaching an agreement to return to in-person instruction for small groups, as it is challenging to react in real time when information is constantly changing and thanked all classified staff for their willingness to work together. He thanked BTA for the partnership with Read Across America, as this event brings the community together. He understands the concern about the reopening of school. His concern is the safety of staff and students and some students who are failing and asked for collaboration to be able to return to in-person learning soon. Clerk Frintner thanked parent Michelle Webster regarding the renaming of Jordan MS and thanked the Committees for their work. SRO's are good conversations and thanked the City of Burbank for keeping the program alive and to be effective. Some students are saying that it is meeting their needs. Looking forward to the conversation and the prospective from students. To Louis Ayala thanked him for his comments and for the membership to agree to support students in need. No doubt that personal safety is challenging. CSEA stepping up and thanked the membership. BTA for coordinating the Read-Across America. Real challenges and need to provide for those students who need help. He understands be partners to work together to build a model that works for everyone. Vice President Tabet thanked all the speakers. The safety of employees is important, but students need help. It was time for all involved to seat at the table and have the conversation to bring students back. She asked that Ms. Abasta work with staff to bring students back. She is looking forward to Read Across America and the Read Across the City events. She also thanked Michelle Webster for her comments regarding the renaming of Jordan MS. It has been a long time for a Committee to remain focused on the conversations to find the right name for the schools and the community. She then highlighted Ms. Ostrom comment regarding transparency and parent training regarding the SRO program and she was looking forward to the upcoming presentation. She then thanked the District's school grounds staff for maintaining the District's schools as clean as possible. Member Ferguson noted that teachers have been partners during Distance Learning and that the reopening of school was a new challenge. Finger pointing at teacher unions was not the problem, as we are all in this together. Vice President Tabet noted that teachers are outstanding and have been working hard during these difficult times and that she was simply asking for help to be able to return to in-person instruction. President Frintner thanked Michelle Webster for her comments regarding Jordan MS. He appreciated her continued discussion throughout the process. He appreciated the passion express at the recent joint Police Commission meeting and he was looking forward to the upcoming SRO report.

He thanked Mr. Ayala for his comments regarding the SRO's and the CSEA MOU and the work and dedication from staff. He also thanked Diana Abasta for sharing her budget concerns to be address by Ms. Kukta and noted that he deeply appreciated the hard work and dedication that teachers have shown throughout the school year. We have new challenges now and we need to find ways to maximize what can be done for students and looked forward to working with staff to accomplish that. He was looking forward to Read Across America events and thanked Superintendent Hill and Member Aghakhanian for announcing the upcoming elementary book drive event.

Board of Education Regular Meeting – February 18, 2021 175 10. REPORTS TO THE BOARD 10.a Superintendent's Comments Superintendent Hill thanked Assembly Member Laura Friedman and Congressman Adam Schiff for participating in a Perseverance Rover project virtual event and thanked both for the continued partnership and support. He also thanked the Burbank Coordinating Council for their continued support and announced that the campership for spring and summer programs is accepting applications and encouraged parents to apply. He then commented on the reopening of schools and noted that this is a moment in time, dealing with the pandemic and the mourning of lost loved ones. He knows that Distance Learning has not worked for everyone and that in-person learning is the best option. The question is how to get back to in- person and build on innovations learned by combining both to make it better. The Board and he do not want to rush and react to sudden changes. He then shared his frustration with the information provided by local and state agencies and the challenges in making thoughtful decisions. He and the Board want to move forward in a way that it is sustainable for everyone. He encouraged community advocacy for employee vaccines. A plan with the Burbank Fire Department is in place; however, vaccines are not available to administer to employees to allow for a safe return to campus. He then highlighted the current progress made which include child care, in-person academic supports opportunities to bring back students who have not been successful in distance learning, athletic conditioning has resumed for cross country, and more will continue shortly. As conditions improve, additional sports and activities will be added. End-of-year activities are being planned on multiple types of end-of-year activities based on the potential health conditions at that time. Summer school is being planned for an expanded summer school. The preference is in-person, but a hybrid and distance learning model is being designed in case health conditions do not allow to fully return to in-person instruction. He has received a high volume of emails requesting that schools reopen and he and staff are working around the clock to ensure a safe return to school. He was optimistic that a reopening of school will take place in a thoughtful and sustainable manner. John Paramo then announced the newly appointed Director for the Burbank Adult School, FACTS, and the Independent Learning Academy, Wendy Heard and shared her background and qualifications for the position.

Member Weisberg appreciated his willingness to work with the District and asked for clarification regarding the process for mental health, suicide/self-harm or depression. Sgt. Turner explained that if the officers are not present during such incidents, schools will notify the assigned officer. Officers are able to place students on hold for services; however, typically the Mental Health Team is notified. Officers then work with school psychologist and staff to best serve the student before transporting to a hospital. Clerk Ferguson thanked Sgt.

If the child is removed by an SRO parents are informed as soon as practical as well as school staff. 10.c Report on the Governor's Budget Proposal for 2021-2022 Debbie Kukta, Assistant Superintendent, Administrative Services, facilitated a presentation on the Governor's Budget Proposal for 2021-2022, as presented. Governor's Budget Proposal.pdf (OF 28,579) Debbie Kukta used a PowerPoint to guide her report. School Services of California (SSC) hosts an annual Governor's Budget Workshop which focuses on major policy issues and funding proposals from the Governor and the Legislature. The Governor's Budget Workshop was held on January 15, 2021. The workshop focused on the major policy issues and funding proposals of the Governor, and provided detail for Local Education Agencies (LEAs) to project its revenues for 2021-2022, and for the balance of 2020- 2021, in accordance with the Administration's Budget recommendations and fiscal assumptions. The workshop also offered SSC's insights and advice on what LEAs should do now to prepare for the upcoming year. The report included the Gross Domestic Product, the Rising Federal Debt, Proposition 98, Deferrals, items such as COVID-19 liability coverage, UPP hold harmless for low-income student numbers, additional CalSTRS and CalPERS employer reduction, and more discretionary dollars and less program restrictions not included in the budget proposal, Funding for Reopening of Schools (funding

Board of Education Regular Meeting – February 18, 2021 177 based on total ADA less student enrolled in independent study). Updated Public Health Guidance for Reopening K-12 schools, President Biden's Education Agenda, the LCFF Planning Factors, the 2021- 2022 ADA Impacts, Local Agency Reserves (protects students, employees, and the public), Collective Bargaining, Layoffs and State Budget Timelines. She then reviewed the District's First Interim multiyear projections adjusted for the Governor's Proposed Cola Operating Deficit for 2021-2022 (3.84%, $887,507) and 2022-2023 (1.28%, ($12,544,438) and the unassigned/unappropriated amount for 2022- 2023, ($6,830,665)). Member Weisberg asked for clarification regarding deferrals in relation to STRS and PERS. Ms. Kukta noted that the deferrals were approximately $17M deferred across the State staring in February through June, 202, a percentage of funds is kept by the State, which is an accounting trick that mistakes the revenues, counted as revenue, without providing the funds. The deferrals for BUSD total $21.4M, which lend financial methods such as TRANS, Interfund Borrowing, borrowing form County Treasury, Deferral Waiver (not applied), and Legislative Action. Ms. Kukta noted that the 3.84% COLA Base grant was not a true number as the District had used the reserves last year to increase expenditures and the District was only at a COLA of -1.5%, including declining enrollment, deficit spending, and increase contributions to Special Education and other restricted programs. She also noted that new legislation has been introduced to align both the certificated and classified layoff timelines. She then reviewed the District's First Interim multiyear projections adjusted for the Governor's Proposed Cola Operating Deficit for 2021-2022 (3.84%, $887,507) and 2022-2023 (1.28%, ($12,544,438) and the unassigned/unappropriated amount for 2022-2023, ($6,830,665) and suggested that the District continues to plan. The budgets are only good as the assumptions. The second interim will be presented at the March 18 meeting. Member Aghakhanian thanked Ms. Kukta for her presentation and asked for clarification regarding City and District funding. Ms. Kukta noted that the City and the District are two separate legal entities. Schools receive State and Federal funding; however. the City has the ability to increase taxes and charge service fees and the District does not. There is no legal obligation. The District can ask for assistance, but suggested to plan as a District, as the City is also at the mercy of the State. Member Weisberg was concerned about what to do to protect the District's financials and/or to increase the reserves. Ms. Kukta noted that the Parcel Tax would have help to bridge the gap. In addition, Burbank does not receive a lot of supplemental and/or concentration funding. Reserves can help, but reductions will need to be applied. Clerk Ferguson said that the reports were good to plan. He asked that the information is published on the District's website. The biggest jump is in retirement costs, there's an opportunity to get buy downs for local Districts and he will continue to push partners to make it a priority. He was happy to hear that the Budget Advisory Committee would review the budget for transparency. He asked that staff present proposals for assumption to 6% at upcoming meetings. Vice President Tabet noted that all State district budget could be reduced by buying down or lengthening of time the STRS and STRS repayment plan. The 5 Star Coalition is continuing the conversation to try to stop paying for mistakes of ten years ago and encouraged community advocacy. President Frintner noted that the District needed to be realistic with the proposed funding and agreed with Clerk Ferguson that building the reserves must be looked at to move forward. 10.d First Reading of Report on School Facility Naming Committee for David Starr Jordan Middle School

Board of Education Regular Meeting – February 18, 2021 178 John Paramo, Assistant Superintendent, Educational Services, facilitated the first reading report on the School Facility Naming Committee for David Starr Jordan Middle School, as presented. Jordan_Middle_School_Renaming_2-18.pdf (OF 28,580) John Paramo used a PowerPoint to guide his report. At a general session of the Board of Education in the Burbank Unified School District a formal request was made by a community member to rename David Starr Jordan Middle School because of the namesake's support of eugenics. Board Policy 7310 prescribes the process for naming a district facility, which includes participation from the community. Therefore, the Board of Education solicited requests from the public to serve on the committee, and at a public school board meeting selected the members. The committee consists of two school board members, the principal, a David Starr Jordan School teacher and student, three members of the community and the Director, Secondary Education. The Burbank Unified School District launched a community wide effort to gather input on the renaming of Jordan Middle School. The community had approximately 5 weeks to submit suggestions to the Jordan School Renaming Committee. At the end of 5-weeks, the committee received input from 911 people, and the top five suggestions were: Ruth Bader Ginsburg Middle School, Amelia Earhart Middle School, Jordan Middle School, Mariposa Middle School, and Barbara Jordan Middle School. The Committee considered all 911 suggestions and each member selected their top five names for consideration, using the parameters of Board Policy as a guide. By working through the process, the committee was able to narrow the choices down to 20 names. Once the committee had the list to 20 names, the Committee met via zoom conference to discuss the merits of each of the 20 names, using the Board Policy to drive the discussion. Collectively, the Committee was able to get the list down to 11 names in total. The committee then took the 11 names and each member choice their top 3 names and the result is as follows: 1) Mariposa Middle School, 2) Amelia Earhart Middle School, 3) Ruth Bader Ginsberg Middle School, 4) Barbara Jordan Middle School, and 5) Dolores Huerta Middle School. Therefore, the Jordan Renaming Committee is submitting the 5 names listed above for Board consideration in the renaming of Jordan Middle School. Member Weisberg asked about community outreach and the 900 responses received. Dr. Paramo explained that communication was sent via BUSDeNews, Blackboard, the Jordan Community, the PTA, the District's website, which include a Google form. 900 responses were submitted, which included plenty of suggestions. John Paramo noted that working for the past two-years had been an experience. The Committee was guided by Board Policy, as a tool, to accomplishing the task. President Frintner and Committee Member noted that normally meetings displayed a lot of discussion and passion that supported the choices, including Board guidelines to be able to present the selections to the Board for consensus. Vice President Tabet and Member of the Committee noted that this was a great experience and that she was happy with the outcome. 10.e Report on the Superintendent's Fundraising Advisory Committee John Paramo, Assistant Superintendent, Educational Services, reported on the progress of the Superintendent's Advisory Committee, as presented. Fundraising_Report_to_the_Board_2 18.pdf (OF 28,581) John Paramo introduced Wendi Harvel, PTA President and Fundraising Advisory Committee reported that the Committee meets monthly to ensure that everyone is informed regarding the Committee's work. The Committee is continuing to meet to develop an application process, including a preliminary application approved by the site, then by Dr. Knapik (elementary) and Dr. Paramo (secondary), including capital programs for facilities and provided a brief review of the application process, which is being

Board of Education Regular Meeting – February 18, 2021 179 created by the Sub-Committee and then presented to the larger Committee. She also noted that fundraising collaboration with site staff was critical during this difficult time to ensure that similar needs are offered at all District schools. Member Aghakhanian asked about the possibility of hiring a grant writer for non-profits. Ms. Harvel explained that the Fundraising Committee was not a 501c3. The Committee's task is to share resources to ensure equity districtwide. Vice President Tabet clarified that through conversations with schools, it is possible that resources can be shared for similar programs, which is the Committee's goal. Member Ferguson noted that it was important to ensure that dollars fundraised are assigned to similar programs, to expand and consolidate spending where needed, and that the mechanism will be able to reach the goal. Ms. Harvel noted that the preliminary ideas will be reviewed by staff to possibly provide similar programs at all schools. 10.f 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. Facilities and Technology PowerPoint_2-18-2021.pdf (OF 28,582) Debbie Kukta used a PowerPoint to report on current Facilities and Technology projects by location, project, contractor, and the contract amount. 11. NEW AND/OR UNFINISHED BUSINESS 11.a Adoption of Resolution 27 Proclaiming March 2021 as Intellectual and Developmental Disability Awareness Month That the Board of Education adopt Resolution 27 proclaiming the month of March 2021 as Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month, as presented. Resolution 27 Intellectual Disability Awareness Month 2021.pdf (OF 28,583) Tami Schiern thanked the Board for highlighting the students who fall under this category. Outstanding families and teachers run this exceptional program and thanked Molly Hyslop and Crystal Miron for the outstanding work and for attending the virtual meeting. Burbank Unified School District (BUSD) currently services over 100 students identified with Intellectual Disabilities. BUSD provides a full continuum of services and supports for students with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities that may include a combination and range of services within general education classroom settings as well as receiving Specialized Academic Instruction and Related Services in Special Education classrooms. Our District's innovative programs for students with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities continue to have positive effects on all of the Burbank community. The District's resolution will formally acknowledge the importance of raising awareness of Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities and the value of being part of a community that supports individuals with Developmental and Intellectual Disabilities, as well as their families and those who work with them in the District's schools. It was moved by Steve Ferguson, and seconded by Charlene Tabet, that the Board of Education approve the item as recommended. The motion carried unanimously with the following roll-call vote: AYES – Frintner, Tabet, Ferguson, Weisberg, and Aghakhanian. 11.b Adoption of Resolution 28 Proclaiming March 2, 2021 as Read Across America Day

Board of Education Regular Meeting – February 18, 2021 180 That the Board of Education adopt Resolution 28 Proclaiming March 2, 2021, as Read Across America Day in the Burbank Unified School District, as presented. Resolution 28 Read Across American 021821.pdf (OF 28,584) In May 1997, a small reading task force at NEA (National Education Association) came up with the idea to create a day to celebrate reading similar to holding pep rallies to get kids excited about football. They called it "Read Across America" and tied it to Dr. Seuss's birthday, one of America's most beloved authors, born on March 2, 1998, which the largest celebration of reading this country has ever seen. In cities and towns across the nation, teachers, students, teenagers, librarians, politicians, actors, athletes, parents, grandparents, and others develop and deliver Read Across America activities to bring reading excitement to children of all ages. Motivating children to read is an important factor in student achievement and creating lifelong successful readers. Research has shown that children who are motivated and spend more time reading do better in school and in life. It was moved by Charlene Tabet, and seconded by Armond Aghakhanian, that the Board of Education approve the item as recommended. The motion carried unanimously with the following roll-call vote: AYES – Frintner, Tabet, Ferguson, Weisberg, and Aghakhanian. 11.c Approval of Comprehensive School Safety Plans That the Board of Education approve each school’s 2021-2022 Comprehensive School Safety Plans, as presented. Note: Due to the size of each document, the Comprehensive School Safety plans will not be duplicated for distribution. However, copies of each school’s Plan are available for review by contacting Stacy Cashman at (818) 729-4456. Safety Plan Board Report 2021.pdf (OF 28,585) Stacy Cashman thanked the school site teams for working with the school site councils and safety committees virtually to complete the plans during this difficult year. Schools are required to develop a comprehensive school safety plan annually that addresses the safety concerns identified through a systematic planning process. This year's work on Comprehensive School Safety Plans involved administrators working closely with staff, parents and other stakeholders to analyze and assess their school environments and focus on specific areas of need that require attention. The focus of state law is to assure that each school safety plan addresses the school's procedures for complying with existing laws related to school safety. As schools have been doing Distance Learning due to the Pandemic, some assessments and goals were modified or continued so they can resume when schools open. Towards this mandate, school community members were assigned by the principal to conduct needs assessments in each area. Upon completion of the assessments, each School Site Council or safety committee was required to create goals that addressed the school's most critical areas of need. The result of this work is the updated Comprehensive School Safety Plan for the 2021-2022 school year. Each plan was reviewed for compliance before being submitted for your approval. It was moved by Steve Ferguson, and seconded by Armond Aghakhanian, that the Board of Education approve the item as recommended. The motion carried unanimously with the following roll-call vote: AYES – Frintner, Tabet, Ferguson, Weisberg, and Aghakhanian. 11.d Adoption of the Proposed 2021-2022 Instructional Calendar That the Board of Education adopt the proposed 2021-2022 Instructional Calendars, as presented.
