ISSUE:
Should the Board of Education approve the Schoolwide Program application waiver at Ladera Elementary School beginning in the 2017-2018 school year?
BACKGROUND:
Ladera Elementary School received Title 1 funds and operated as a Targeted Assistance School in the 2016-2017 school year. In a Targeted Assistance model, only the most educationally needy students qualify to receive supplemental services using Title 1 funds. In an effort to offer flexibility and support to more students, the educational community of Ladera Elementary School is applying for a waiver to become a Schoolwide Program (SWP) school. Schools not meeting the SWP of 40% economically disadvantaged students must apply for a waiver to access SWP funding. The most significant advantage in ascertaining a SWP status is that it allows the school to focus Title 1 activities and services to include all students in the school.
In order for the State Educational Agency to approve the waiver, the District must complete a Title 1, Part A – Notification of Authorization of SWP Report through the Consolidated Application and Reporting System. SWP waivers will be approved by the State Educational Agency if the Local Education Agency School Board approves such a request and if the school meets specified criteria.
Ladera meets that criteria based on the following information: in the 2016-2017 school year Ladera received Title 1 funding, a comprehensive school-wide assessment was completed and the School Site Council recommended that a SWP funding model is the most effective method to serve the entire Ladera student population.
ALTERNATIVES:
RECOMMENDATION:
Alternative #1.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.
RATIONALE:
If the SWP waiver is approved, the change allows maximum benefit for staff and students, while addressing LCAP Goal 1–Improve Learning for All Students, Goal 2–Maximize Student Potential through Effective Intervention and Goal 3-Engage Students through Quality Student Activities. The school community is supportive of the proposed waiver.

ISSUE:
Should the Board of Education approve the recommended applicants to serve on the Independent Citizens’ Bond Oversight Committee?
BACKGROUND:
Proposition 39 governs the District’s general obligation bonds and requires the establishment of an Independent Citizens’ Bond Oversight Committee. On November 4, 2014, voters residing within the Conejo Valley Unified School District passed Measure I, a $197,000,000 bond measure that authorizes funding for needed repairs, upgrades, and new construction projects to the District’s schools. Proposition 39 required a 55% supermajority for approval; Measure I was passed with a 65.28% approval rate.
State law requires that after a bond authorized under Proposition 39 is passed, the local school Board must appoint an Independent Citizens’ Bond Oversight Committee to work with the District.
Pursuant to Education Code Section 15278(b), the purpose of the Independent Citizens' Bond Oversight Committee shall be to inform the public concerning the District’s expenditure of Measure I bond proceeds; review expenditure reports produced by the District to ensure that Measure I bond proceeds were expended only for the purposes set forth in Measure I; and present to the Board in a public session, an annual written report outlining their activities and conclusions regarding the expenditure of Measure I bond proceeds.
According to the Bylaws, the members will serve a term of two years, commencing as of the date of appointment by the Board. No member shall serve more than three consecutive terms. Members whose terms have expired may continue to serve on the Committee until a successor has been appointed. Vacant positions are recruited in accordance with the Bylaws, and the District advertises in the local newspaper, on its website, and in other customary forums, as well as soliciting appropriate local groups for applications. A subcommittee made up of two Board members appointed by the Board President, and the Superintendent, review applications and make recommendations to the Board. The full Board may approve the recommendations. The deadline to submit an application was June 15, 2017 at 4:00 p.m.
There are three Committee positions to be filled. There were seven applications submitted for the Parent/PTA Member position; two applications submitted for the Senior Citizens' Organization position; and three for the Business Organization position. \
After reviewing the applications and conducting interviews, the subcommittee comprised of President Mike Dunn, Mrs. Sandee Everett and Interim Superintendent Dr. Mark McLaughlin recommends the Board appoint the following candidates:
