engagement and school climate chino Valley has four LCAP goals to improve student outcomes to address our district priorities and the eight required state priorities our update will be on the progress of state priorities three and six which are used
in part to gauge progress for LCAP goal 2 using the state adopted reflection tool there are required elements for measuring the progress of the eight state priorities using both state and local metrics state metrics are used
when common data points can be collected for all schools such as test scores graduation and sus suspension rates and are reported on the California school dashboard by way of the colored gauges with red representing the lowest performance and blue representing the
highest performance local metrics are used to gauge gauge the progress for state priorities that are only available at the local level for example with information gathered from surveys and self-reflection tools with local metrics
the district determines the performance toward meeting a state priority as having met not met or not met for two or more years in the first part of the presentation Dr frinkbinder director of access and equity will review our
evaluation of the district's progress with the three promising practices for parent involvement and family engagement using the self-reflection tool in the second part of the presentation Dr gomez director of health services will highlight student perceptions of school
safety and connectedness gathered from the district's K12 insight school quality survey state priority 3 parent involvement and family engagement is evaluated using multiple data sources including the school quality survey school plan for
student achievement and feedback from educational partners through the LCAP advisory committee LCAP school site meetings at all schools English language advisory committees and school site councils results from our internal evaluations are used to guide the
district through a cycle of continuous improvement for each of the three promising practices we will report on the district's progress of implementation ranging on a scale from one exploration and research to five full implementation
and sustainability for section one building relationships between staff and families we have one focus area in full implementation and three focus areas in full implementation and sustainability section two focuses on building
partnerships for student outcomes in section two we have all four areas in full implementation and sustainability section three focuses on seeking input for decision-m in section three we have all four areas in full
implementation and sustainability we are pleased to share that thanks to CVUSD's focus on family engagement 88% of participants of the K12 school quality survey agreed or strongly agreed that our schools create a welcoming
environment for all families for the 2024 2025 school year the district has met all local indicators for parent and family engagement the K12 Insight survey is administered districtwide every year to students in
grades 6 through 12 the purpose of this survey is to gather information on the factors that affect the overall district and school climate in this part of the presentation we will look at student responses that allow us to have better insight on students perception of safety
and connectedness with school these percentages represent student responses agreeing or strongly agreeing to questions centered on school safety both physically and emotionally and connectedness to an adult on campus to whom our students can seek help from regarding both school and personal
concerns these results provide a comparison of student responses across the 2324 and 2425 school years highlighting our district's continuous efforts to improve school climate as evidenced by an increase in student responses over time these high
percentages of student responses exemplify our district's commitment to providing a positive learning environment for all students in addition these outcomes are attributed to our dedicated educators and their effective implementation of positive behavioral
interventions and supports also referred to as PBIS for which all school sites have received numerous accolades through statewide recognition for consecutive school years for the 2425 school year the district has met the local indicator for
school climate this concludes our update to the board on our progress with state priorities three and six thank you so much uh board members Dr enfield staff do you have any comments questions no seeing that there's none thank you

security our teachers so um just thank you for that and we want to continue to see that trend upwards as well okay we're now on to comments from our student rep Mrs gabriella good evening board president Shaw school
board members Superintendent Enfield and distinguished guests since we last met our high school seniors shadowed professionals of the city of Chino to see glimpses of future careers during our amazing student government day i had the privilege of being able to serve as
the police chief with our very own Chief Menson and it was a truly great experience spring sports have begun and teams are on their way to victory good luck to all sports as they embark on their journey through League don Lugo recently hosted their fourth rally of
the year their annual Black Light Rally which was Mario Kart themed chino Hills recently announced their Great Gatsby prom theme their prom will be on April 26th at the Arctic in Anaheim chino just had their Toy Story

so much Miss Gabriella we always enjoy your updates and next up are comments from our employee representatives we have Steven Frasier from ACT let's go ahead okay thank you i appreciate it good evening um tonight we want to address the 18-month waiting uh
period for retired substitutes and coaches uh this policy is not just a logistical hurdle it's a clear message to our most seasoned and dedicated educators that their expertise is no longer valued um these are professionals who've dedicated their entire careers to
Chino Valley Unified when they retire they do so with the expectation that they can work part-time for our district however an 18month gap is not just an inconvenience it deprivives our students of invaluable mentorship guidance and quality
instruction we don't want to lose our retirees to neighboring communities where they're welcomed with open arms i don't think this is the message that we want to send next we want to take a moment to highlight the critical role of our teachers union the strength of ACT is that we can navigate challenges in
real time as president I can feel those and um elicit real time swift problem solving studies show that districts with strong unions are dedicated um excuse me studies show that um districts with strong unions are bringing better
student outcomes when we work together we build a district that's fair for both educators and for our students so thank you for your time tonight and I look forward to our continued work together have a good evening thank you thank you Mr frasier do we have Danny Hernandez

give any materials you wish distributed to the board to the secretary to the recording secretary thank you the first speaker is Terresa Yao on the yellow high school girls varsity golf team i'm here to to address a problem that we're is affecting our boys
program right now and that will the challenges that we're going to be facing for the upcoming girls season next school year last summer our coach informed us that he would not be able to coach the girls team due to the California state teacher retirement system published policy which requires retirey to sit out 180 days before
returning he was set to return as a head coach in January 2025 for the boy season after completing his required period this policy has been consistently followed in the past years by other yellow coaches such as coach Chris Klein
Decker of track and field and coach John El Musen from the softball team and also coach Rick Clark from Dunlugal golf team all of whom all of whom has um resumed their role after 180 days however after filling his 180day sit out period Coach
Caps returned to prepare for the golf the boys golf season only to be told that he would could not coach he was informed of the new policy requiring retirey to sit out 18 months before he can return which was never previously communicated as a result coach Caps was
removed as head coach for the boys golf team and coach Donovan had to step out to fill the role doing what's best for the players and for the program hoping coach Caps will return soon when coach Cap sought clarification from Mr mr yo boy and the AD and the HR director he
was told by HR director um Dr akuna that this new rule is something that they want to enforce even though it's not officially written anywhere nor do we have it have it in writing according to HR this answer is given to the ACT president Steve Frasier for the
justification justification for this policy is that retire uh retire retire as coaches receive stipens might quit unexpectedly and file for employement benefits a claimed that Coach Cap's research found to be incorrect as it
retired coaches receiving stipens that do not complete their job duties are not eligible for unemployment benefits and should not be categorized in the same category as contracted teachers or employees this 18-month waiting period will push talent and experienced coaches
to other school district that will continue to follow um the 180day policy followed by Celtar we're at the risk of losing dedicated teachers and coaches who have built and lit successful programs today we as parents respectfully ask the school district to
reconsider and further investigate this policy which is already impacting our program and could affect many other teachers and coaches in the future coach Caps had led the boys program for 23 years and is the founder of the girls power program at um Ayala High School under his leadership he built a highly
successful program leading the girls to the CIF Southern Division Championship and the state CIFF academic championship for a few years in the past October our girls the next speaker is Shuby Divine good evening i'm not tall enough
for this microphone i'm Shubi Divine i'm a parent um Miss Gabriella thank you and uh other Chino Valley Unified School Districts good evening from students from the district good evening as well as everybody that's here to support you students for your success as we keep
seeing in the pillars outside um I'm also here to support what Teresa just spoke about which is this change in uh the number of days a teacher a retired teacher is required to sit out um when I ask around I see that there are a lot of
retired maybe teachers or school district employees i see some principles that I've worked with in the past and if I ask a question that if you were to retire today how many days are you expected to sit out um I hear a whisper i hear 180 days i don't hear 18 months
from you guys and so what I I did ask around I asked around to a couple of teachers and I found out most of the people to date think it's 180day sit out period so this change of 18 months requiring a teacher to sit out 18 months before they can come back to volunteer
to to uh coach to walk-on coach to substitute teach when you expand that period of time that a teacher has to sit out I think you're going to lose lose valuable talent you're going to lose people that are interested to other districts that may have shorter days to
sit out so um I implore the folks that are in charge to reconsider this sitout period for the teachers that are retiring to shorten it to the what everyone knows it to be 180 days so that we can move on otherwise um it you know
will impact our our sports it'll impact our students it'll impact everything that you all stand for here today thank you frank [Applause] Guzman good evening everyone at Pomona Valley Pride we believe that trans
inclusivity and education is essential to creating a safe affirming space where students can thrive when transgender and gender diverse students are respected valued and seen they're more likely to be successful academically and socially inclusive schools foster understanding
reduce discrimination and promote mental health and well-being every student deserves an education free from bias where they can be their authentic selves and reach their fullest potential trans inclusivity isn't just important it's necessary for building equitable and empowering learning environments for
every student um so I'd like to just acknowledge trans day visibility which is March 31st and hope that you will think about those students who you represent who fall under that umbrella thank you jesus Torres jesus Torres hello dear Chino Valley Unified
School District board and community members i come before you as a public servant dedicated to serving our community i urge this board and our community members to unite in creating a safe and affirming school environment for all youth the truth is that students
are not being indoctrinated into LGBTQIA issues instead they now have the access to the tools that allows them to self-identify and express their authenticelves the truth of the matter is that LGBTQIA folks have been around for thousands of years even before the
birth of this great nation lgbtqia individuals particularly in Western American culture have historically been forced to hide their gender identity and sexual identity as a native person whose culture has been
practicing multiple genders and sexualities for thousands of years I ask for an increase of cultural competence to develop within our leadership to better serve all communities while the bo board may claim to create safe spaces
for all in reality most marginalized and vulnerable students are being further pushed aside we have a number of LGBTQIA students students coming to us expressing concerns of safety unable to trust their chino schools we must work
together to create a positive and inclusive learning environment for all students and today we're here to visually show you that trans folks are not going anywhere regardless of the policies or anything that has to do with
erasing trans lives and trans lives matter sam Gutier thank you cat one second please um just a reminder there's numbers right there if you can just please line up so we can have a smoother process when it's your turn we have three numbers um after the next speaker
and I think you should be able to see where your name is on the on the board thank you so much Sam [Music] Gutierrez good afternoon my name is Sam my pronouns are they them i'm a youth organizer and lead uh Hent Ganisada's
queer and trans youthled social action group here and queer here and queer is a youthled social action group whose mission is to cultivate a community of queer and trans organizers that center community building and queer kinship in
their organizing practice we organized to advocate for gender justice in our community create and foster spaces of care and collectivity and build intergenerational wellness among queer and trans folks in and around Pomona we hold weekly meetings where youth members
learn about and practice community care expand their political analysis and develop leadership and organizing skills to transform their community i'm speaking here in front of you to today to say that I'm in support of LGBTQ students in the Chino Valley
Unified School District and will be continuing to show up for these students as you all go on with cultivating harmful environments for these youth i have personally lived and seen how young people can flourish and impact their community when they are cared for and
respected as the full human beings that they are this community must learn that there is no place for anti-LGBTQ hate and violence in this city or our region and that queer and trans folks in Pomona are here to support our neighbors and their students thank
you scott [Applause] Carter uh my name is Scott Carter i've been a science teacher in the district for 27 years first off I would like to offer everybody a uh happy vernal equinox for those of you who are not
familiar with astronomy that means it is the first day of spring i was asked to uh step in and speak for a colleague who cannot uh make it due to um uh child care arrangements and she feels uncomfortable bringing her children into
this space uh these are her words i'm here today for the equity and human rights of the uh committee of the associated chino teachers while there are many issues I'd like to address I want to focus on one overarching theme that has become
increasingly clear over the past two years the confusion between what constitutes politics and what constitutes human rights policies are processes that govern how decisions are made in society human rights on the other hand are a set of principles that
acknowledge every human's right to dignity equality and the ability to live free from oppression discrimination or harm unfortunately we've seen policies passed that infringe upon these fundamental human rights and this needs to change it's important to remember
that playing politics often involves manipulating a situation for personal gain this is something we have witnessed in this board's action actions which sadly seem to prioritize political interests over the well-being of students as stated in the Chino Valley
Unified School District's mission statement the Chino Valley Unified School District provides all students a rigorous and relevant education in a safe and learning environment this is an excellent mission but it is one this board has repeatedly
failed to uphold from the harmful attacks on our LGBTQ plus students to the lack of response regarding the presence of Immigration and Customs Enforcement ICE on our campuses the board has consistently acted in ways that threaten our students safety other
school districts have proactively reassured their families yet here silence prevails the board's actions have led to an unsafe learning environment students who once saw 4x6 safe space cards in classrooms now see them removed policies are being passed
that cultivate hate and discrimination and as a result students are feeling unsafe we have already seen a child physically assaulted due to the hostile environment fostered by these policies now our students are forced to live in fear not only of being targeted by hate
but of being taken away in handcuffs in front of their peers due to forces beyond their control it is the school board's responsibility to ensure that information for undocumented students is accessible to all families additionally it is the responsibility of the district
to train educators and office personnel on what to do if they are faced with immigration and customs enforcement agents as educators we will continue to stand in the Jim Gallagher
[Applause] evening uh board Dr enfield staff and fellow residents uh I'm here tonight to discuss the what's on the news today concerning the dismantling of the federal board of education uh what does
the Department of Education do uh first of all it was created 45 years ago as a cabinet position it disperses Title One funds to elementary and secondary schools with large low-income student enrollments it collects data on schools it oversees the recognition of
accrediting agencies and programs that support higher education institutions it protects students against racial and sex-based discrimination and it manages student financial aid assistance programs including loans and grants the
department awarded $120.8 8 billion in federal loans grants and work study funds last year in 2024 to more than 9.9 million college and career school students now what happens to K12 education without this education
department uh special needs protections are affected for one without the education department administration of the special needs programs would be left completely up to the states and the most vulnerable students could be most affected in fact about 12 to 13% of the
money used for students with special needs comes through federal IDA funding if the education department is dissolved that means districts will be responsible for using that money however they choose and hopefully it's going to be in the
right way to serve students with disabilities there would be no oversight to ensure these dollars by the way are actually followed and meeting the needs of students for IEPs also now there's title one funding that would be affected uh during fiscal year 23 18.4 billion
was allocated title one funding typically it's used for educational technology which we need remedial instruction materials internet and mental health services among other things such a move would likely cause a very difficult transition with significant fusion at the state and
district level also there's civil rights protections we have schools are going to have more leverage to discriminate against children without any oversight or accountability if this happens so key thing that I'm bringing this up parents be
aware we need if you're going to submit applications for higher education do it early because some of this is going away and Dr dr enfield I have a message as well for you and also uh Grace Park what is your mitigation plan in fact as they
start to dismantle the federal department uh what what are you planning to do here in the schools i think the public would like to know thank you Myra Maldonado victoria Baka versus Marino Valley and I'm here to say what I need
to say and I'm allowed to i am here to advocate for my daughter Mila Maldonado she's currently eight years old attends Lidle Elementary she's in an SDC class um at the age of six at Oakidge she was sexually assaulted by two boys um you
guys failed to protect my daughter and you guys continue to fail to protect my daughter she is constantly bullied at school uh she's constantly bullied at in her bus um there is she's still in diapers at the age of eight she has
intellectual disability along with other things and we've been in a fight with the district for almost 2 years now to get some proper accommodations for her and you guys are still failing her there is a male that escorts my daughter to
the restroom when we bring this up in the IEPs they tell me to take it up with HR and it's the job description what happened to human rights and dignity thank you stephen Figureroa my name is Steve Figeroa and I'm an education advocate
and she is correct victoria Bak of Moreno Valley regardless of your policy gives us the right to say what we want to say i'm a guy who challenges things so I advocate for her daughter and you know if you're going to be running for the super No just really quick i'm going
to have to ask you to sit we only allow one person no she she has right i'm here we only allow one person you're violating my rights i'm not violating your rights we stop the time you're going to get your full time we have board policies that wasn't cool you You took away minutes from me okay
all right but but still you don't have the right to do what you just did okay all right and if you're going to run for state superintendent you better make sure that you're running special ed better than you're doing here because all across the state we have parents all
over a whole network that we'll just put the name out and you'll get less than 10 on one/tenth of 1% of the vote throughout the central valley San Francisco the Inland Empire everywhere because we're known for that okay uh so we're here to say why we have filed
complaints that have gone unanswered so you're out of compliance with the state we filed HR complaints that haven't gone unanswered we tried to do an ADR that basically was never started or finished but the problem is is that you guys like you don't care you you do this LCAP they
feel safe to to what kids did you give that to cuz you didn't give it to their kids so you you create a phony statistical thing to say "Oh everybody's safe." I'll tell you what it's not true cuz I advocate for several kids in this district and I want to meet with you i'd love to meet and reach across the table
and say she deserves a a a lady aid to take her to the restroom so she doesn't hold it in all day isn't that you guys are supposed to be the Christian change but you're so uncchristian you you talk about attacking gender yet you have a little girl here who can't go to the
restroom because the male way takes her to the room you know I mean what what do we got to do to get your attention you tell me we'll do it we'll do it we'll do whatever we have to her IEP is out of compliance it's not being implemented
okay that's that's a whole another issue i'm not I'm not the guy who's going to come you know I'll bring a thousand people here i really will look at my put my name on the internet Steve Figero educational advocate you'll see i'd love to meet with you Norm we've spoken before on a few issues i'd love to meet
I really would to resolve this matter and to build trust among the with the parents in the community so if you want to reach out you got my number i've said it many times and I'll tell you if you guys feel threatened i don't care if you're LGBTQ i don't care if you're disabled i don't care well I could do I
could do this whatever I want okay i trust me I do this so I'm going to tell you you have your rights you have Victoria Baka versus Moreno Valley everybody look it out you have the right to do this and you can look at Judge Timberlum's decision in this i have a right to do what I'm doing whether I
want to turn around and speak that is a God-given first amendment right so you can't say we're all for the American way if we only do it our way no we have a right to disagree we have the right to speak whatever language we have the right to challenge ICE on there and if you guys want to challenge ICE I'm the
guy to do it okay i'm not afraid we're not here for years carmela Ang hello i am a student at Ayala High School i am a freshman and a part of the girls golf team i'm speaking now because
my coach Coach Caps was told he had a 180day retirement before he could go back and coach our team throughout my season even though it was my first season I he was there to coach us even when he didn't need to be and now he's
being told that it has been extended to an 18-month um retirement thing and now he can't coach the boys season this semester i am speaking right now because my coach even
though he was told he could not be coaching and he's not getting anything out of it he has always supported us from the sidelines and showed up to every single match uh thank you Misty
[Applause] misty good evening um I just wanted to give a shout out actually to Coach K who is the track and field coach at Chino Hills High
School uh she's new this year and so far she has been absolutely amazing i'm so grateful for her my son just started track this is his first time and it's been a great experience so thank you to whoever hired her i don't know um but
she is wonderful so I want to thank you for that um also I want to mention that I've seen some things lately on social media pertaining to
some other activities and sports the dance team and um the song that is maybe not as appropriate um and so just a concern that I've seen myself and maybe
could be looked into um further i don't know if the advisor is allowing some of these things or not if she's even aware so um I also wanted to point out that there's been a lot of talk in in some
previous board meetings about um racism and these kids at school and I just want to point out that I have been to a lot of soccer games i've been to a lot of track meets i've been to a lot of high school
activities um the last couple years with my my youngest and these kids are amazing i see nothing but great things from these kids out when they're participating in their
activities i watch them these track meets are very long um and I have a lot of time to just sit and watch them interact and these kids are they're very friendly with each other
and I'm not seeing what some of these adults are seeing or or talking about um so again you know my son was definitely the minority on his soccer team my son
is the minority in the track and field and I see nothing but but positive things from these students interacting um so maybe I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that some of these things that the adults are saying
um are more personal to them because of their history their interactions um but it also could be because of their personality so if somebody's not being treated well maybe it's not it has nothing to do with their race their
sexual Elsa Cabraw good afternoon board members i want to address a few points regarding concerns about the head coach from the Ayala cross country team point one the head cross country coach at Ayala High School spent $9,000 on the booster debit
card on a trip to Alabama the district told him not to do use the debit card and he did point two he submitted the bill to the district office hoping that it would slip through it didn't point three administration met with the boosters to help assist with the 9,000
but I find it odd that we were asked to withhold the information in order to avoid a scandal during this meeting the president of the cross country boosters aided in the cover up all of this was a simple cover up i believe this to be unethical and so I resigned from the
boosters point five none of what I have said so far can be disputed point six I believe the head coach retaliated against my daughter because I oppose the cover up i have submitted evidence point seven the booster has spent over 45,000
on timing equipment this equipment is not all kept at school but when bought it has been shipped to the head coach's house point eight the head coach has made money off the use of the cross country equipment which is against CIF rules i believe when everything is revealed it will be showed that he has
made money finally none of the first five points I have stated can be disputed we tell our students that integrity counts does it just one more thought yesterday the cluster league met had the meet for track and fields which was held at
Claremont High our head coach was paid to time the event with the Ayala cross country timing equipment at Claremont how did he coach his team and be the official timer at the same time asking for a friend thank you for your

district with uh Mr cruz and Mr na we had a really good time the students did outstanding i think we're in good hands our our leadership uh bar has been set high and the students are definitely meeting that also was able to go to the Festival of Arts at Magnolia Junior High
and see the outstanding artwork displayed by just about every school I believe I was able to see on the boards there and we have a lot of talented students so that was a really good event and then just a couple of days ago with Mr monroe and I'm sure he'll comment
some more on it i'll just touch on it the uh BST also uh the AI and education forum that was held there at Chino High School was outstanding those kids I'm serious they could uh it seems like they could run companies and most of them
were juniors in high school and it was pretty uh it was pretty outstanding to see uh see them in action so uh other than that have an outstanding spring break and we'll see you next time thank you Mr cervantes Mr naw
hold on one second okay is it working uh yes got it uh I also like to thank uh Gabriela for um great government day uh she was an MC for a lunchon she had done a wonderful
job like professional and uh as I had told her before um later when she graduate from her college she could become a school board member she's capable so thank you Gabriella um on a sad note uh many
people remember our sister Shauna Dinkens uh she was a principal at preserve school and she went home uh to be with our eternal
father so I pray for her and her family and also teachers and staff members uh she was an wonderful principal who really care for all the children that she had
served so we really uh miss her um on a note that we had uh tonight about school climate uh state priority
study our students feel safe in my classes and the survey shows 86% of students agree with that that's a tremendous uh number because in LA
Unified School District if I remember correctly uh more than 60% of students felt unsafe being on their campuses in each single day so kudos for our security personnels
and all the staffs in our school sites because that is very very important that the students must feel safe at their school i'd like to ask our staffs to see
if we could connect with a parent that who had a problem with a restroom situation with their daughter and also uh with a parent that who had problem
with their athletic program at Ayala High School um because we're here to serve students and we want to make sure that they get the best service uh during their school years so I want
to make sure Dr enfield uh uh reach out to the staffs at IA High School to uh see uh what is going on with that situation not a problem we'll follow up thank you
thank you Mr naw mr monroe uh just a couple of things real quick first of all um coming into the next week I hope everybody has a happy spring break gets the necessary break from school to recharge their batteries for the last sprint so to speak to the end
of the school year um and I'll touch a little bit i know Mr servant already talked about uh the artificial intelligence kind of symposium that Chino High puts together they actually do a really good job and get some really
educated individuals that are teaching um a lot about artificial intelligence and how to use it um I know there's a lot of teachers I myself included use it for certain things and it does cut down a lot of time but it brings up a very um
interesting area of how is it implemented i know there was a bill that was just uh proposed and I believe signed into legislation um for schools to look at how do we incorporate AI into
our curriculum um it'll be interesting to see what that looks like because although it can be very helpful there are some very concerning features of that when it comes to how the information is used and who has access to it who controls that
and how do you even tell somebody where that information comes from or the um origination point of the information can we control it with uh feeding it biased information so that it spits out bias
information there's a lot to process in that so that being said uh one of the things that came out there was a work group being put together through the state department of education in California was looking at putting together an AI workg group so I want to
put that information out there for everybody if you are interested in AI and want to be a part of kind of molding what AI possibly looks like in the future and exploring benefits and concerns of that area and how we implement it in education the uh there's
a website you can go on it is tinyurl.comca workg groupoup if you go on there that leads you to an application process and the application needs to be submitted by April 11th john as Mr cvantis said we have a lot of
bright individuals um that we spoke with the other day at Chino High School i know there's more out there in our district um and that is for students for educators for parents administrators anybody who has an interest in in this
AI group to be a part of so I would encourage you if you have an interest to um fill out that application and see if we can get people inside of our district to help uh mold the future of what that looks like so that's all I have enjoy spring break thank you Mr monroe dr
enfield no comments tonight thank you and I will try to make it quick before you cut my mic um Dr enfield can you It's a joke can you please look into um that parents concern because that was the first that I think most of us if not all of us have heard of it and I just want to make sure that somebody from our
staff or one of us follow up with her yeah we I have that in my notes we'll be taking care of that thank you and then maybe communication can given be given back in regards to the IELA coaches um so there's clarification on that yes I shared that with the principal but I will continue to make sure we get that
information out thank you so much i also just want to thank our um staff uh we did have a big turnout on that student survey that is great um we want to continue to hear their voices um but with that said on the next board meeting I'm asking an agenda item to be put on
there it's a resolution to support AB89 it's Kate Sanchez's bill um for fairness and safety and girls sports uh in CIF and I am going to say something because I just found out something today um I got a cease and desist from a mother of
an athlete because I spoke truth on my social media i will never stop speaking truth for the community um and when I saw this heartbreaking story with this mother Dr enfield knows I will continue to follow up on that that was the first time I heard of it i've seen the other board members they're very concerned so
I want people to know like your concerns are our concerns we don't just let it go out one ear and not follow up but with that said I got a cease and desist in served here at the district for something I did on my own social media talking about the unfairness of boys in girls sports we're talking about
biological males in girls sports i'm talking as a mother of two female athletes i'm talking as a community member and an advocate of female athletes and people who I fight for all girls i don't care if it's just in California Chino or um the nation but my
job as a board member is to try to advocate for safety and fairness for our girls not only in sports but in their own locker rooms and restrooms just like I when I heard that mom I want to make sure we follow through and make sure that her child feels safe as well um in regards to male and female differences
um the problem that I have is I just said it was unfair and that a boy is stealing these opportunities from girls because that's the truth if you don't like it I'm sorry i also have first amendment rights and I will never shut up in regards to that so this cease and desist that's what I feel about that
cease and desist i'm telling you right now because it does affect our community that boy winning titles does affect our community right now number two in the state is an Iella female athlete her name is Jenna Morales and I feel so
fiercely protective over her because someone stole her fa first place medal a boy i'm sorry that's not an attack on anybody other than she has been attacked our Ayella student our Chino Valley student has had that stolen and ripped
away from her that I will go to my grave fighting for our girls you can beat me up you can say whatever you want put death threats until our girls have safety i will not stop this fight they deserve protection and that's what Title 9 is you guys are all afraid of the Department of Ed that came up here
earlier being dismantled i'm sorry less bureaucrats less special interests having that money title 9 will still be protected i will make a phone call and another letter and another complaint letting on behalf of Jenna Morales today tonight that's my promise that's my
guarantee and I will fight for every student especially if they're in our own community with that said I'm going to end this board of education meeting so I don't get us in trouble by saying the wrong things at 6:58 p.m
