ISSUE:
 

Shall the Board of Education approve a Provisional Internship Permit for Justina Velasquez to teach Special Education, Mild/Moderate, for the 2018-2019 school year pursuant to Education Code 44225.7?


A Provisional Internship Permit (“PIP”) may be requested by an employing agency when there is an anticipated staffing need.  An “anticipated staffing need” exists when a district is aware that an opening is going to occur and conducts a diligent search for a credentialed teacher, but is unable to recruit a viable candidate.  The Special Education Department has interviewed other candidates, but this individual is the best fit for the position and student population, and is working to complete her credentialing program in Special Education.  This individual is currently serving as a substitute teacher in this specific Special Education, Mild/Moderate classroom, but is limited to 20 days due to the Emergency Substitute Permit that she holds.

 

ALTERNATIVES:

  1. Approve the Provisional Intership Permit for Justina Velasquez, pursuant to Education Code 44225.7, as submitted.
  2. Do not approve the Provisional Intership Permit for Justina Velasquez, pursuant to Education Code 44225.7.

 

RECOMMENDATION:

Alternative 1


RATIONALE:

The District wishes to hire talented teacher candidates through the use of the Provisional Internship Permit when an anticipated staffing need occurs and the staffing solution serves the best interests and needs of the affected student population.

ISSUE:

 

Should the Board of Education approve to submit a request for Allowance of Attendance Because of Emergency Conditions?

 

BACKGROUND:

 

On November 8, 2018, wildfires (Hill & Woolsey) tore through Ventura and Los Angeles Counties and countless numbers of the Conejo Valley Unified School District families and employees were forced to evacuate for several days. Almost 75% of the city was under mandatory evacuation.  Schools throughout the District were impacted by the fires including seven schools requiring intensive disaster restoration, eleven requiring deep cleaning, seven requiring exterior cleaning, five requiring surface cleaning, and all requiring scrubbing, deodorization and the replacement of air filters.  The District was unable to open schools until conditions were deemed safe. 

 

Education Code 41422 authorizes schools to apply for recovery of lost apportionment from the State School Fund in the event of an emergency that results in school closure. Upon approval by the Board of Education, the District may submit to the California Department of Education the attached Request for Allowance of Attendance Because of Emergency Conditions.

 

ALTERNATIVES:

 

1. Approve to submit a Request for Allowance of Attendance Because of Emergency Conditions, as submitted.

2. Approve to submit a Request for Allowance of Attendance Because of Emergency Conditions, as amended.

2. Do not approve to submit a Request for Allowance of Attendance Because of Emergency Conditions.

 

RECOMMENDATION:

RATIONALE:

 

Natural disasters are outside of the control of the School District.  The opportunity to apply for recovery of lost Average Daily Attendance is authorized by Education Code 41422.

ISSUE:

 

Should the Board of Education approve a contract for a residential treatment center placement for student #22-18/19?

 

BACKGROUND:

 

The needs of student #22-18/19 cannot be met by the public schools at this time.

 

In order to provide placement of this student at the recommended educational setting, a contract number must be established for the period of 10/24/2018 through 6/30/2019. Total cost for this residential treatment center placement is $104,790.00, less reimbursement (from SELPA Mental Health Fund) of $42,125.00, and less District income of $4,629.40. The Total District Cost is $58,035.60.

 

ALTERNATIVES:

  1. Approve a contract for the recommended residential treatment center placement for this student, as submitted.
  2. Approve a contract for the recommended residential treatment center placement for this student, as amended.
  3. Do not approve a contract for the recommended residential treatment center placement for this student.

RECOMMENDATION:

 

Alternative 1

 

RATIONALE:

 

Special Education classes and services for students by the District and County cannot meet the needs of this student. The District staff will review the student's Individual Education Plan during the period of the contract to determine if goals and objectives can be met in a public school program. This process guarantees the student's right to the least restrictive setting.

I. Accept the GASB 75 Actuarial Valuation
Meeting
Dec 11, 2018 - Regular Board Meeting
Category
9. ACTION ITEMS – CONSENT
Type
Action (Consent)

ISSUE:

 

Should the Board of Education accept the GASB 75 Actuarial Valuation?

 

BACKGROUND:

 

The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is a national body that sets the standards for governmental accounting and financial reporting. Generally, these are the accounting standards that state and local governments, as well as school districts, use when preparing financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). 

 

The GASB issued Statement No. 75, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Post Employment Benefits Other than Pensions (Statement 75), in June 2015. Statement 75 replaces the requirements of GASB Statement No. 45 Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers for Post Employment Benefits Other Than Pensions, (Statement  45) and issues new standards for defined benefit OPEB and defined contribution OPEB provided to employees of state and local governments through OPEB plans. Its intent is to improve accounting and financial reporting by requiring an OPEB liability to be reported on the face of the financial statements rather than in the accompanying notes (as previously required by Statement 45). GASB 75 eliminated the Net OPEB obligation and replaced it with the full value of the unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability (referred to as the Net OPEB liability in GASB 75 terms).

 

Other post employment benefits (OPEB) are employee benefits other than pensions that are received after employment ends and include medical, dental, vision, prescription, and other related benefits. 

 

The agreement for services to prepare this compliance report was approved on December 4, 2018.  This report summarizes the GASB actuarial valuation for the Conejo Valley Unified School District's Other Post Employment Benefits (OPEB) for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2018.      

 

ALTERNATIVES:

  1. Accept the GASB 75 Actuarial Valuation, as submitted.
  2. Accept the GASB 75 Actuarial Valuation, as amended.
  3. Do not accept the GASB 75 Actuarial Valuation.

RECOMMENDATION:

 

Alternative 1

 

RATIONALE:

 

Acceptance of the GASB 75 Actuarial Valuation report will provide the District with an updated forecast of OPEB and allow the completion of the 2017-18 Audit.

ISSUE:

 

Should the Board of Education approve amendments to Board Policy and Administrative Regulation 6145.2 – Athletic Competition?

 

BACKGROUND:

 

This policy is updated to reflect new law AB 2009, which requires any district that offers an interscholastic athletic program to develop a written emergency action plan to be followed in the event of sudden cardiac arrest or other medical emergency. The administrative regulation is updated to reflect the requirement of AB 2009 to make an automated external defibrillator available at athletic events.

1.  Approve amendments to Board Policy and Administrative Regulation 6145.2 – Athletic Competition, as submitted.

2.  Approve amendments to Board Policy and Administrative Regulation 6145.2 – Athletic Competition, as amended.

Type
Discussion, Information

ISSUE:

 

Should the Board of Education approve amendments to Board Policy 6178 and the replacement of Administrative Regulation 6178 – Career Technical Education?

 

BACKGROUND:

 

This policy is updated to reflect new federal law (P.L. 115-224) which reauthorizes the Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act, retitled as the Strengthening Career and Technical Education for the 21st Century Act, and new law (AB 1808), which amends the California Career Technical Education Incentive Grant Program. Material regarding activities for special populations and consultation with private school representatives has been moved to the administrative regulation. Material on program evaluation is revised to add the requirement to review measures of career technical education pathway completion as part of the annual review of progress toward the goals in the local control and accountability plan (LCAP). The administrative regulation revises the section on "Federal Grants for Career Technical Education (Perkins)" to reflect P.L. 115-224, including streamlining the uses of grant funds, adding a requirement for a needs assessment, and changing the definition of "special needs populations."  The administrative regulation also deletes the section on "Tech Prep Programs," as those programs are no longer funded and are repealed by P.L. 115-224. The section on "Linked Learning Programs" deletes the note regarding the linked learning pilot program which is repealed on its own terms.

 

ALTERNATIVES:

 

1.  Approve amendments to Board Policy 6178 and the replacement of Administrative Regulation 6178 – Career Technical Education, as submitted.

2.  Approve amendments to Board Policy 6178 and the replacement of Administrative Regulation 6178 – Career Technical Education, as amended.

3.  Do not approve amendments to Board Policy 6178 and the replacement of Administrative Regulation 6178 – Career Technical Education.

These amendments and this replacement will keep our Board policies and administrative regulations current with new law.
