Board meeting,starting at 4:15 pm at JSCEE.  Agenda.

Items of note for Intro:

- Legislative agenda for 2018-2019

The 2018-19 proposed legislative agenda is focused on three main areas:

• Provide Ample and Sustainable Funding for K-12
• Fund Capital Facilities Projects and Remove Barriers to Address Needs 
• Eliminate the Opportunity Gaps 

- Approval of the Facilities Master Plan (which is probably the best one ever created), this due to the leadership of Director Mack and the stellar committee members.

- Operations Levy - SPS is asking for $815M over three years (evenly distributed at about $271M a year).  The last Operations levy was about $758M.  The current Operations levy represents about 19% of the budget, down from past years amount of nearly 25%.  

 

- BEX V - SPS is asking for $1.4B over six years.  I'll have a separate thread on the last BEX V Work Session but I note that somehow Rainier Beach HS, which still in the top ten, has moved way down on the list.  I find this disturbing.

There are those district watchers who believe staff really does not want to renovate RBHS on the premise that it will be spending money on a school that is not anywhere near full (forgetting that many schools, after renovation, DO fill up).  As well, there are some on the staff who seem willing to allow charter high schools to take those students in.  

If staff keeps RBHS near the bottom of the list and puts that work near the bottom of the list and (somehow) runs out of money to take care of RBHS by the end of BEX V, well, that will be a mistake.  Wiser heads should prevail.  

  - There is also a BAR for revision of the Board's policy on Digital Citizenship.  As a member of ITAC, I advocate for this motion to wait until ITAC has more time to discuss it further.
