You seen my name that is not a getaway free I need to speak to you about the process of protesting if after two years there's no resolution or nobody had the decency to sit down and try to find a real person cancel the problem with the Valdez situation at Edgewood then I had no other Outlet back to utilize my ride which is protesting a lot of board members maybe do not understand those rides those are sacred and I understand. and I would have five board members stanzione is the only one that is acted irrational violence and vindictive and lie on my person I wanted to also talked about how I'm perceived in the community and I think I understand that by vilifying me publicly somehow mistaking Against Child Abuse in the district would lose it's value I'm here to tell you that that's not it I uncover under the Freedom of Information Act emails which name me by name from the leadership at the teachers Miss Mahaffey one of them is very troubling Demi and insulting to myself that was dated September 23rd or 23rd 2020 coincidence I started my protest on September 19th I know this because I let law enforcement know of my whereabouts and the addresses that I would be located because I do follow the law so that's why I can pinpoint that was split in three days for that miss my coffee again continue to attack me this stuff in the email form that was sent to mr. Mr huhne Tamica Lee nivasco Leslie Valdez about people Leslie Valdez insinuates dad said there's no mention of her in my public comments that had just occur but she wanted make sure to clarify her name which is the and anyways I just wanted to point that out makes no sense and she demands that mr. kuna stops allowing me to have internal access to people being moved around and and teacher transfers and transfer into use the word plural that needs to stop all my information on site from cencioni breaking the brown act and telling me what they were doing and she was not held accountable what from talking to community and victims and we all know but nobody speaks is like that why Wow West an old Mexican town where the whole town so scared and terrified because this mean mean ugly Gringo Rasta town and apparently I'm the only one that was not part of the of the ranch and I'm an outsider and I don't understand the fear to speak on an issue like this so that's where it comes and then she goes as far as to say that lie enforcement should be contacted that I need to be stopped so now the law enforcement of teachers actually want to talk to Ally enforcement I wonder if you see her children but when apparently I do public this is her worst and she also stated that I have been instigating racism religious hatred and threats of violence first of all white privilege is what's up situation World disgusting so I guess you need to call Black lives matter and have a conversation with them or your President Biden I'm sure he will teach a couple of things I mean she is a Democrat you guys should be able to get along and then and it's far as violence with who how she doesn't specify she just right but the most insulting Parts the one that's coming that she's stating in this email bad my language is a little bit too sophisticated for my emails and that in the past Miss French told her and other people that herself and some board members have guided me and help me with my speech it because apparently English is not my first language wow wow Mahaffey this is the way the teachers feel about that if you strike back and fight for abuse on children you have been there like I don't know what Terry him if if you're not that you're going to put them is byland you going to put in as as is ghetto you're going to put in as the if it's idiots and puppets of French wow and you wrote this and you actually mail this to people in the district not only mr. Simpson under the Freedom of Information Act know nobody gave me that people they did March 31st 2021 he goes into this little email about about horrible what up the place of work being not safe and and me and fighting violence I'm sorry if you're being violent towards children and I speak on it I'm not the violent person it's you if you were removed from the school by the high school for Misbehavin it's you that misbehave not me don't shoot the messenger if if Covington was removed because of camera situation that's you if I'm best was moved for a year because she acts after 30 years that was the punishment with two weeks paid vacation but okay that's you do that's that's not if I'll be a Jenny who was moved and put in a nice office at the district because he could not stop rubbing our little girls breasts at the school during class. That's not me I'm not going to let this be turned into a me this is a process that's going to be very long get us if you're comfortable does the manifesto that she only did only aggravated me insulting me even further than it already insult to injury by her stay in her fears and mixing crap with sugar about a death at the high school that tells me that the high school people are involved on it that's is why teachers don't speak anymore why would they they have stanziani that represents them a teacher that works at La Puente Unified School District should be careful how they conduct themselves in an open forum and instigate hatred either through email Media or a not understand the rights of me to go to their house and protests The Continuous employment Alvin Alvin abuse Arabic Ruben abuse her with a history of her nephew she started crying about her nephew he did say and I already send this email out to everybody you take care of I take care of my he's demanding to know my address what does he want to do when he gets my address I am not an elected official what does estaciones nephew Tim to do when he obtained my address that's a question that I'm going to continue to ask and it doesn't matter how you moan how you cried and how you stomp your big toes stanzione you cannot turn it on me I'm not a child molester I'm not the mental abuser this is the situation you are walking to some of you have lived through it and I'll allow it as board members. your problem you wanted to sit in that now you fix it and if you do not fix it then I have to go out in the community and inform them of what's Happening those are my legal rights last time I checked to finish their I am really trying to work with the community because I don't think it's fair that children continue to get abuse and don't ever forget that the only reason my name has been utilized and a taxonomy have been put out because remember this community all because I file a formal complaint on a teacher that was mentally abusing my daughter friends and her peers in class no other reason only attacks on me is because I dare speak on abuse and if you board members for whatever reason are not doing the I think that's on you that's not on me Spence Tiana you need to talk to cancel because what you are doing is allowing me to win a bigger battle in court when I go there because you not be more aggressive to me then do it in public you realize that that's that's sacred desk that does not belong to you to attack me so keep talking since you keep telling your relatives to post hateful messages to me and threats from your nephew keep crying Suns going to keep listening to the negative some that is between living and faster and this district for 30 years and that house actually when I did the record public record check Chuck should be living there not either of you it is not my job to knock on doors and find out who lives in those addresses I am going by the addresses provided to me by the district doors are public records anybody can obtain that you don't have a right to hide behind a door when you're not doing the right thing at the at the board meeting after the law that's my rice and I'm going to continue to utilize them stop your attacks on me because we have a lot of conversation to do with all your teachers and speaking on child abuse spice me like this and Siri keep at it unless it was kind of waiting for or in the corner in public forum thank-you Community don't allow people to lie to you and protect your because right now our board is not protecting them thank you now we move onto my item number 9 board member comments worth good evening Bassett Community I hope everyone is doing well I would like to give a shout out to all our dads in Bassett Unified School District Happy Father's day I hope you all this special day this last weekend I had a great opportunity to have breakfast with the valedictorian salutatorian for the class of 2021 and then also with a former alumni it was really great conversation but it really strengthens the desire that we must keep putting students first as a reminder they'll be a second dose clinic on Wednesday July 7th from 8 to 12 for the vaccine mission is the Pfizer vaccine and this will be held at the Bassett High School again I concur with dr.

Solano yeah it's been crazy year to say the least however we've all muscle through it when you for my students to teachers to employees management I mean the whole thing I do want to thank everyone in about the community who we came together this year and pull this year together it goes without saying that this was something that was inconceivable too many people over here. Did we see what we showed up it came together did we do everything perfect know that we're still bumps on the road now the less you know we we we must have to it and that's that's the beauty of the resilience we find here and baskets that we do have the capacity to continue moving forward even when it looks like it's going to be a tough road Debbie said we do deserve a break I hope you all have a great summer break and yeah I hope you'll enjoy the holidays the holidays that are coming during the break hope you have a great one and we move on to a item number. what's an action item superintendent recommends the Board of Education to improve the local control and accountability planned annual update the superintendent recommended the Board of Education approved the local okay estradiol Sanam and I motion carries 5-0 thank you so are we move outside I'm at 11 calendar however there was one correction with a little bit of the length of the language so an item number 1102 think I'm sorry for the resolution was reached the top resolutions regarding the elimination of certain classified position due to the lack of work and or lack of fun in the second section where the Super Nintendo makes his recommendation or resolution 45-21 that should read resolution 43-21 so that's the correction that we do have to make on the on item number 11 so with that correction in mind which of course again instead of reading 45/21 jewelry 43 21 can I get a motion to approve the content calendar spectacle resolution 4321 please okay do you want to pull for 8 okay items for a I make a motion to approve it if we're pulling that item I would ask if if the board will consider pulling item 17 because depending on the action is taken on 4 a.m. am packed a recommendation for item number 17 address for the Public's knowledge item number 17 is approved the hiring of Campus monitor positions before position at Bassett Twitter or 240 and that item is was depending on the action taken on for a Fresno weather removals of a Adams on content calendar are there Sobe item and 70 - items 4 + 17 Solano and 2nd you can't be hurt did you just now made it home yes. And I and I got two more to go open . I think it's the best best motion to open discussion on approval before I don't know if ours open I just want to say after a very long time and thinking about it I am uncomfortable with not being a little more creative and keeping those positions as opposed to the others but I just wanted to go separately okay thank you thank you it here sorry I was just saying that we have talked about security at elementary and maybe one at 4 but I would have been to only that you just because or people cut in half Santa Monica I would like to ask Debbie deal cuz she had said at the last meeting that this was brought in with the recommendation from her committee or budget committee is that correct yes it is it is a recommendation and included community members District staff and we had several meetings around various items of savings and this was one of them yes correct correct yes that's true yes they are part of our absolutely okay and then mhr can discuss the difference between those those two classes Are Presidents to meet open time in Moscow positions in the campus security officer positions which is one of the recommendations of what are one of the reasons why we're recommending the lower level or mid-level security positions the place that the middle school is because the campus monitor position Gilmore with patrolling the students and the campus whereas our security officer positions are required to have security guard certification and they also have some post training certifications and they do more with enforcement they can also Monitor and apprehend will not hand but their job description does see that they can make it they have naproxen alien make report to law enforcement and so those are positions that we typically have seen on a high school campus and the monitor positions are mid-level position between campus AIDS and the campus officer positions and do more with monitoring parking lot monitoring students as they transition from class I'm escorting student check-in of visitors onto the campus and different shirt ensuring on safety on the campus it is my understanding that not all of the campus security positions were to be eliminated so there are still some in maybe. Alvarez can address that if they're still be for campus security officers employed by the district as well as a lead campus security officer all of them assigned to the high school and they can also assisted other sites if need be so that was my understanding and we discussed this early in those committee meetings the campus monitors would be placed at the middle school security security three campus security officers a lead campus security officer and one campus monitor correctly would be hiring to eliminating for security officers 1 Edgewood to a torch one at Bassett High School and each one would repeal replaced with a campus monitor correct okay question too many so before we're keeping for campus security officers in one lead and you mentioned three of the campus security officers will be at the high school along with the lead yes you got one campus security officer left they said where would they go my day went to The Forecastle security officers will be left and one lead if a painting three of them at the high school and the league and the campus monitor we have one campus security would they go to torch So the plan would be that the campus security offer there that's eliminated at Edgewood we replaced with the campus motto add torch Middle School two of the campus security officers would be eliminated and would be replaced with to campus monitors and the 110 campus security officer at Bassett High School would be limited leaving the rest and replace that with a campus monitor so there will be an equal number of you know downgrading boo the campus security officers to monitor at the second at the Middle School site or any of the ones that were being laid off or the one that doesn't pay for them to make a board member ever asked for those that may be impacted by the reduction but would they be paid or help to be get the campus monitor yes well if they have seniority so some of the depending on the number of positions that are reduce for being reduced but the ones that have the most seniority you could be able to maybe be able to pump them up at the high school and those that are not would be able to bump into the open vacancies that were creating if they choose to do so one more question when we went from campus monitors to all security we trained we take your dog to the train some of them or any of those being let go because this is our we repeat every time we train the people then we reduce their position and another District reached the rewards to we pay for everything and then they go somewhere else are they any of the that we have trained that we paid to be trained I'm sorry I'm a board member misionera I'm not not familiar with the training but all of the campus security officers that are being released would be able to bump into the campus monitor position they all have the training for the guard card and we do have I believe one or two that have the post training based on my recollection of his seniority those two officers would not be impacted because they hold enough seniority to remain at is it safe to just keep three and a monitor at the high school being that the kids will be returning after a year in a of not being in school is that safe or are we going to be paying for it later that's my concern. That's my question so I did speak to the high school principal and then discuss the the recommendation action as far as Administration was concerned they didn't include indicate any concerns they had special because they're already keeping some of the cap security officers any further questions okay love you said we're going back to the item number or if you know can I get a motion to approve item for a solanum look up Mensa almost done deal I'm not comfortable lowering this level of security training experience now i-32 and we watch later number 17 Ferrara local Miss. Johnny I guess and I motion carries all right I don't know 12 next regular board meeting will be July 27th 2021 I don't know what to do German a regular board meeting on June 22nd twenty you want to take them to me I don't even know I'm meeting is adjourned at 7:34 have a good night by the community thank you good night good night be safe
