[11. REPORTS FROM MEMBERS OF THE BOARD AND SUPERINTENDENT]

LAST MONTH, WE SAW THE BONITA HIGH SCHOOL SCAVENGER HUNT.

I HEARD THE STUDENTS HAD A LOT OF FUN.

THEY CONNECTED WITH THEIR CLASSMATES AND LOOKED FORWARD TO MORE ACTIVITIES LIKE THIS.

THANK YOU TO KENNY RICHIE AND THE ENTIRE STAFF FOR MAKING IT HAPPEN SAFELY AND SUCCESSFULLY. PARENTS ED IS BACK THIS MONTH.

PARENTS CAN CHOOSE FROM SIX DIFFERENT MENTAL HEALTH WORKSHOPS THROUGHOUT THE MONTH.

I WAS AT LAS FLORES THIS AFTERNOON AND SAW THE NEW SCOREBOARD FOR THE FIELD OR ON THE FIELD THERE. AND IT LOOKS GREAT WHAT A NICE ADDITION TO OUR SPORTS PROGRAM, THERE'S A VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITY IN OUR DISTRICT AS AN EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS HOLDER.

THIS ASSISTS OUR STUDENTS IN FOSTER CARE, MAKING SURE THEY HAVE A REPRESENTATIVE AT THEIR SCHOOL MEETINGS, WHICH IS A GREAT WAY TO VOLUNTEER.

AND I ALSO WOULD LIKE TO SAY THAT, DIANE, I'M HONORED TO BE SITTING NEXT TO YOU FOR YOUR FINAL MEETING AND ALSO THANK THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO SUPPORTED MY CAMPAIGN.

AND I'M EXCITED FOR THE FUTURE, MY FUTURE WITH BONITA UNIFIED.

HOPEFULLY I GET TO STAY.

THE NUMBERS ARE A LITTLE CLOSE, BUT I'M GOING TO BE OPTIMISTIC.

THANK YOU. FIRST, I'D LIKE TO START OFF.

I KNOW GLENN IS GOING TO TALK ABOUT THIS BEING A DODGER FAN, BUT IN THE PROCESS OF THIS VERY BUSY YEAR, THE DODGERS MANAGED TO WIN A WORLD SERIES.

AND IT WAS A GREAT SERIES.

I REMEMBER BEING IN THE EIGHTH GRADE WATCHING THAT KIRK GIBSON HIT HIS HOME RUN, WHICH SHOULD DATE ME A LITTLE BIT.

THIS TEAM JUST HAD A PHENOMENAL YEAR.

THEY HAD THE BEST RECORD.

AND WHEN I WAS THINKING ABOUT THEM, LIKE, I GUESS IF YOU HAVE THE HIGHEST PAYROLL, THE MOST TALENT, THE MOST HEART, AND NO ONE'S VIDEOTAPING YOUR CALLS, ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE.

ONE OF MY FRIENDS I WAS TALKING TO, ONE OF MY FRIENDS AND WE'VE BEEN JOKING ABOUT 2020.

YOU KNOW, THERE IS PANDEMIC'S THERE'S A PANDEMIC, THERE'S PROTESTS, THERE'S NOW A CONTESTED ELECTION.

AND WE'RE LIKE, I FEEL LIKE WE SHOULD BE PLAYING DISASTER BINGO.

BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, EVERY MONTH IT SEEMS LIKE THERE'S A NEW THING WE'RE DEALING WITH.

SO WHOEVER WINS THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION AND WHOEVER AND I THINK WE HAVE THE WINNERS HERE. I JUST WANT TO SAY CONGRATULATIONS TO EVERYONE WHO WON KRISTA, GLENN AND [INAUDIBLE]. CONGRATULATIONS.

AND FOR THOSE WHO RAN A CAMPAIGN.

CAMPAIGNING IS VERY HARD.

IT WAS A VERY CLEAN ELECTION.

THERE WERE SOME GREAT IDEAS THAT CAME OUT THERE AND IT WAS REALLY AN HONOR TO WATCH EVERYONE RUN. SO I DEFINITELY APPRECIATE THAT.

AND FINALLY, DIANE, IT'S BEEN AN HONOR WORKING WITH YOU.

I THINK YOU'VE LED YOU HAVE A WONDERFUL LEGACY HERE FOR OUR PROGRAM.

I THINK SPECIFICALLY YOU HAVE HAD A REALLY BIG STAMP ON IT.

SO OUR KIDS EDUCATION IS BETTER BECAUSE OF YOU.

SO I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU AS A PARENT WHO HAS KIDS IN THE DISTRICT.

[00:05:03]

WELL, THEN THE NUMBERS ARE STILL COMING IN, I GUESS, BUT I THINK YOU GUYS HAVE IT PRETTY WELL IN THE SAFE.

I WOULD BE BETTING ON IT.

DIANE, THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR 15 YEARS OF SERVICE ON THE BOARD IN MANY YEARS OF SERVICE TO THE SCHOOL DISTRICT BEFORE THAT.

I KNOW THAT YOU SPENT A LOT OF YEARS ON LA VERNE [INAUDIBLE] EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATION HELPING OUT THERE WITH THE GOLF TOURNAMENT AND SUCH AS AS MUCH AS YOU'VE DONE FOR THE DISTRICT THAT WE KNOW ABOUT.

I KNOW THERE'S A LOT OF OTHER THINGS THAT YOU'RE A SNEAKY PERSON BEHIND THE DOORS AND DO A LOT OF THINGS THAT YOU DON'T GET CREDIT FOR.

SO I'M JUST GOING TO ALLUDE TO THOSE AND MAKE SURE THAT YOU GET FULL CREDIT.

YOU'VE BEEN AN EXCELLENT PARTNER WITH US HERE ON THE BOARD AND YOU'RE CERTAINLY GOING TO BE MISSED ON THE BOARD AND AND AROUND THE DISTRICT.

I KNOW YOU'LL BE POPPING IN ONCE IN A WHILE.

ALWAYS INVOLVED WITH THINGS.

SO, AGAIN, THANK YOU AND CONGRATULATIONS ON A JOB WELL DONE.

THANK YOU. WELL, YES, I WAS GOING TO MENTION THE DODGERS WINNING THE WORLD SERIES.

AND WHILE YOU WERE IN EIGHTH GRADE WATCHING IT FROM HOME IN 88, I HAD ALREADY BEEN ON THE FIRE DEPARTMENT EIGHT YEARS AND WAS WATCHING IT FROM DODGER STADIUM ON DUTY.

SO I GOT TO SEE GIBSON HIT HIS HOME RUN.

I GOT TO WATCH THE 81 SERIES WHILE I WAS ON DUTY BECAUSE IT HAPPENED TO BE IN OUR FIRST [INAUDIBLE] DODGER STADIUM. SO I WON'T GO BACK ANY FARTHER THAN THAT AND TELL YOU THE OTHER GAMES I HAVE SEEN IN PERSON.

BACK TO THE ROY CAMPANELLA GAME AT THE COLISEUM.

I WILL SAY THIS IS A FIRST WORLD SERIES, I HAVEN'T AT LEAST SEEN A GAME IN PERSON FOR THAT THEY'VE BEEN BEFORE I GET TO DIANE, I JUST WANT TO MENTION ONE THING.

IF YOU REMEMBER THE MOVIE MAD MAX, IT WAS SET IN 2021.

[LAUGHTER] JUST SOME FOOD FOR THOUGHT.

OH, NO. OH, THANKS, GLENN.

SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO.

WE MENTIONED HOW MUCH DIANE HAS WORKED ON THE ART SHOWS AND SUPPORTED THE ARTS AND THE ED FOUNDATION. BUT I THINK WHAT I'M GOING TO MISS THE MOST IS YOU'RE QUITE CALM PRESENCE AND NEVER GETTING FLUSTERED OR UPSET WITH ANYTHING.

AND JUST THAT QUIET, CALM VOICE OF REASON THAT YOU'VE HAD FOR THESE 13 YEARS.

AND WE'RE GOING TO MISS THAT. THANK YOU.

WELL, I WANT TO SAY IS, MAN, WHAT A DIFFERENCE A DAY MAKES.

RIGHT. CONGRATULATIONS TO GLENN, KRISTA AND GREG.

AND I'M GOING TO PUNCHING A HEAD WITH IT.

I THINK YOU GUYS HAVE HAVE NAILED IT.

I THINK THAT YOU DID A REAL GOOD JOB WITH YOUR CAMPAIGNS AND STUFF.

GREG, I WANT TO WELCOME YOU TO THE BONITA SCHOOL BOARD.

IT'S RIGHT NOW, IT'S A CHALLENGING BUT EXCITING TIME FOR OUR DISTRICT.

AND WE ARE NOW GOING TO BLEND EXPERIENCE WITH NEW FACES AND IDEAS.

AND IT'S GOING TO BE A TIME OF GROWTH AS THE NEW BOARD BECOMES A TEAM AND HELPS LEAD THE WAY WITH OUR DISTRICT LEADERS.

THANK YOU ALSO TO THE OTHER SIX MEMBERS OF OUR COMMUNITY WHO RAN FOR THE BOARD.

WE HAD A REALLY STRONG POOL OF CANDIDATES WHO RAN, AND I APPRECIATE THEIR EFFORTS AND I HOPE THEY WILL STAY INVOLVED TO HELP THE DISTRICT WITH THEIR GOAL, TO HELP PREPARE OUR STUDENTS TO LIVE THEIR PURPOSE.

I WISH YOU A HAPPY THANKSGIVING AND I HOPE YOU ENJOY THE TIME WITH YOUR FAMILIES.

AS WE HEAD TOWARD THE WINTER MONTHS AND THE HOLIDAYS, I HOPE YOU'LL REACH OUT TO RELATIVES AND FRIENDS WHO ARE ALONE.

THIS YEAR HAS BEEN STRESSFUL AND WE NEED TO TAKE CARE OF EACH OTHER.

AND I WILL HAVE MY COMMENTS OF GOOD BYE NEXT MONTH.

BUT IT HAS BEEN A PLEASURE WORKING WITH ALL OF YOU.

WE'VE BEEN A GREAT TEAM AND I KNOW I'LL MISS YOU.

SO, YOU KNOW, I, TOO, WOULD LIKE TO EXTEND THE DISTRICT'S SINCERE APPRECIATION TO ALL NINE BOARD CANDIDATES, YOU'VE HEARD IT SAY ABOUT THE IDEAS AND YOU KNOW, WE ARE A BETTER DISTRICT BECAUSE OF ALL NINE OF YOU.

WE WALKED AWAY WITH A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF NEW IDEAS.

AND I THINK THE THING IS, I LOOK BACK AT THE AT THE CAMPAIGNING, WHAT REALLY STOOD OUT WAS ALL NINE HAD THE REAL VICTORY IN MIND, WHICH WAS OUR 10000 STUDENTS AND MAKING THIS

[00:10:03]

I HOPE THAT WE CONTINUE TO WORK WITH EVERYONE, LIKE TO GIVE THE PRELIMINARY CONGRATULATIONS TO GREG AND GLENN AND KRISTA ON BEING A CONTINUING YOUR ROLES ON THE BOARD. AND I LOOK FORWARD TO THE GREAT THINGS YET TO COME.

YOU KNOW, THIS SCHOOL YEAR, YOU KNOW, THE EXPERIENCE HAS BEEN QUITE DIFFERENT IN MANY REALMS, BUT THE MOST IMPORTANT ELEMENT TO ANY SCHOOL YEAR IS THE CONTINUING THOSE CONNECTIONS, THOSE CONNECTIONS BETWEEN OUR STUDENTS AND OUR STAFF AND THE COMMUNITY.

AND THERE'S NO DOUBT THAT THERE ARE MANY RESTRICTIONS THAT LIMIT THAT FACE TO FACE INTERACTION. BUT WHAT WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO DO, I CONTINUE TO BE JUST JUST AMAZED AT THAT WORK.

ON THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL THIS YEAR, WE OFFER CHILD CARE TO OVER 200 FAMILIES WHO REQUIRED THIS CHILD CARE SERVICE.

WE PROVIDE IT FIVE DAYS A WEEK.

AND WE RECENTLY WERE ABLE TO HONOR OUR SCHOOL AGED CARE SUPERVISORS BECAUSE WHAT THEY WHAT THEY DOING IS IT'S EVEN GREATER AND BIGGER THAN BONITA.

THESE FAMILIES, THEY HAVE TO GO TO WORK AND THEY'RE DOING A TREMENDOUS SERVICE SO THAT WE CAN CONTINUE ON WITH THE ECONOMY AND GETTING THAT IN THE RIGHT PLACE TO OUR ATHLETICS.

FOR ABOUT A MONTH NOW, I'VE BEEN UP AND GOING AT BOTH OF OUR HIGH SCHOOLS OUR FALL SPORTS ARE GOING THERE, NOT PARTICIPATING IN COMPETITION YET, BUT THEY'RE CONDITIONING THE RULES FOR THAT. YOU KNOW, THEY'RE QUITE EXTENSIVE, BUT WE STILL FOUND A WAY TO MAKE IT WORK.

ON MONDAY, WE WELCOMED OVER 200 STUDENTS WITH IEPS AND STUDENTS WHO ARE LEARNING ENGLISH FOR A SECOND LANGUAGE ON ALL OF OUR CAMPUSES.

AND THIS IS TO HELP SUPPLEMENT THE DISTANT LEARNING THAT THEY'RE WORKING ON.

AND SO THIS AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAM, IT WILL CONTINUE FOR STUDENTS AND FAMILIES WHO FEEL THAT IT'S APPROPRIATE TO HAVE THIS FACE TO FACE INTERACTION WITH OVER 40 TEACHERS VOLUNTEERED TO PROVIDE THE SERVICE TO THE 200 FAMILIES THAT DECIDED THAT IT WAS APPROPRIATE FOR THEM.

AND ACTIVITIES TO CONTINUE TO FIND CREATIVE WAYS TO STAY CONNECTED.

CLUBS ARE MEETING VIRTUALLY OVER 50 PERCENT OF OUR CLUBS.

THEY CONTINUE TO FIND WAYS TO MEET.

JUST RECENTLY, JUST TODAY, BONITA HIGH SCHOOL HAD AN IN AND OUT TRUCK AND WELCOMED THEIR SENIORS TODAY AND DID A LITTLE DRIVE THROUGH FOR THEM THE OTHER DAY.

THANK GOD IT WAS A WARM BUT THEY HAD A BALLOON TOSS OR A CHUCK AT OUR SAN DIMAS ADMINISTRATORS AND OTHER SCHOOLS THE KIDS CONTINUE TO FIND WAYS TO BE CREATIVE WITH TRUNK OR TRADES AND WELCOMING STUDENTS AND WELCOMING FAMILIES, EVEN IF IT'S IN A DRIVE, A DRIVE THRU THING. BUT THE THING ABOUT IT IS PRETTY MUCH EVERYTHING THAT WE'VE BEEN ALLOWED TO DO. WE'VE FOUND A CREATIVE WAY TO DO IT.

BUT THAT DOESN'T HAPPEN ON ACCIDENT.

WHAT THAT TAKES, IT TAKES COOPERATION.

IT TAKES CREATING WIN-WIN SOLUTIONS FOR ALL AND WORKING WITH OUR ASSOCIATIONS AND IT JUST SHOULDN'T GO. UNDERESTIMATED, YOU KNOW, THE WORK THAT TAKES PLACE OUT OF ALL THREE DIVISIONS HERE AND IN THE WORK THAT IT TAKES PLACE WITH THE SCHOOL SITES AND TEACHERS TO MAKE THESE THINGS HAPPEN.

AND I JUST WANT TO SEND A SPECIAL THANK YOU OUT TO THE CSCA LEADERSHIP.

[INAUDIBLE] LEADERSHIP TO BUMP TO ALL OF OUR STAFF AND OUR COMMUNITY PARTNERS, BECAUSE WITHOUT THAT COOPERATION AND WITHOUT THAT FORTITUDE THAT SAID, WE'RE GOING TO FIND A WAY TO MAKE IT HAPPEN. IT WOULD NOT HAPPEN.

AND WE'RE SEEING THAT PLAY OUT IN OTHER PLACES.

AND WE'RE REALLY, REALLY FORTUNATE THAT IT'S TAKING PLACE HERE.

AND I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU TO THOSE GROUPS, BECAUSE IT MAY SEEM LIKE SMALL THINGS THAT ARE BEING ACCOMPLISHED, BUT IT IS A GREAT DEAL OF WORK THAT GOES INTO IT.

AND WE CONTINUE TO LOVE TO SEE THE SMILING FACES, EVEN IF THEY'RE BEHIND A MASK FOR NOW.

OK, APPROVAL MINUTES OF PREVIOUS BOARD MEETING.

THERE ARE MANY GREAT THINGS HAPPENING AT BONITA.

WE HAD OUR PARENT TEACHER CONFERENCES VIA ZOOM ON OCTOBER 29TH.

PARENTS WERE VERY HAPPY TO HAVE THIS LINE OF COMMUNICATION WITH THE TEACHERS.

OUR FALL SPORTS ATHLETES HAVE RESUMED PRACTICING WITH THE REQUIREMENTS SET BY THE DISTRICT. OUR ATHLETES ARE VERY APPRECIATIVE TO BE ABLE TO PLAY AGAIN.

[00:15:04]

AT THE MEETING THEY WENT OVER WHAT THE YEAR WOULD LOOK LIKE FOR THEM WHEN THEY WOULD MEET AND WHAT TOPICS THEY WILL TALK ABOUT.

OUR ASB AT BONITA HAS BEEN PLANNING SOME EXCITING EVENTS TO KEEP EVERYONE INVOLVED WHILE DISTANCE LEARNING.

WE RECENTLY HAD A CITYWIDE ACTION [INAUDIBLE] WHERE STUDENTS COULD EARN POINTS FOR THEIR CLASS BY COMPLETING CHALLENGES AROUND THE CITY.

ON NOVEMBER 4TH SENIORS WILL BE GOING THROUGH A DRIVE THROUGH GRADUATION INFORMATION PICKUP. THEY'LL BE ABLE TO PLAY GAMES IN THEIR CARS TO WIN BONITA MERCHANDISE.

WEST COVINA NURSERY WAS KIND ENOUGH TO SUPPLY THE SENIORS AND TEACHERS WITH FREE IN AND OUT THAT DAY.

WE ARE EXCITED TO SEE ALL THE SENIORS AS THEY DRIVE THROUGH.

THE WEEK OF NOVEMBER 16 THROUGH 20TH WILL BE A TIME OF GIVING.

WE ALSO HAVE OUR MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS WEEK, NOVEMBER 30TH THROUGH DECEMBER 4TH WITH MORE DETAILS TO COME. OUR FIRST QUARTER HAS COME TO AN END, WHICH MEANS WE ARE TWENTY FIVE PERCENT OF THE WAY THROUGH THE SCHOOL YEAR.

DISTANCE LEARNING IS HELPING US BUILD CHARACTER AND FORCING US TO GO OUTSIDE OUR COMFORT ZONE. WE LONG AWAIT OUR RETURN TO SCHOOL, BUT ARE GRATEFUL FOR EVERYTHING THAT WE ARE STILL ABLE TO DO. IN THE MEANTIME, THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME.

HAVE A GREAT REST OF YOUR EVENING.

GOOD EVENING, SUPERINTENDENT COLES, [INAUDIBLE] MEMBERS OF THE BOARD MEMBERS AND AUDIENCE . OUR CELEBRATION AWARDS AND RECOGNITION EACH MONTH ON A WEDNESDAY, WE HOLD A VIRTUAL RALLY TODAY WAS OUR RALLY CELEBRATING THE END OF THE FIRST QUARTER.

EACH STUDENT IS REQUIRED TO CREATE A SLIDESHOW THAT ILLUSTRATES THEIR UNDERSTANDING OF THESE COURT CASES.

AHEAD OF THE ELECTED GOVERNMENT CLASSES WILL TAKE A POLITICAL QUIZ ON [INAUDIBLE] WHICH MADE STUDENTS AWARE OF SOME OF THEIR OWN LEANINGS AND ULTIMATELY IT SELECTED A PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE THAT IS MOST ALIGNED WITH THEIR OWN VIEWS.

IN OUR ARTS IN THE DRAWING CLASS, STUDENTS ARE LEARNING TO CREATE TEXTURES AND PATTERNS USING FELT TIP PENS.

ONCE THEY GET COMFORTABLE USING SMALLER ASSIGNMENTS, DEMONSTRATE THE SKILLS, THEY WILL COMPLETE A LARGER ASSIGNMENT THAT REQUIRES THEM TO DEMONSTRATE MASTERY OF THE TECHNIQUE.

AND OUR ACTIVITIES, THIS MORNING WE HELD OUR SECOND RALLY WHERE WE PLAYED A SCHOOL WIDE GAME OF TWO TRUTHS AND ONE LIES.

AREA STAFF MEMBERS AND STUDENTS WERE INTRODUCED, FOLLOWED BY SHARING 2 TRUTHS AND ONE LIE ABOUT THEMSELVES. THE REST OF THE SCHOOL HAD TO GUESS WHICH STATEMENT WAS A LIE ON [INAUDIBLE] IT WAS A LOT OF FUN.

TODAY WAS ALSO BRINGING YOUR PET TO VIRTUAL SCHOOL DAY.

THEY TOOK PICTURES OF STUDENTS WITH THEIR PETS LIVING OR STUFFED, RECOGNIZING THE ROLE ANIMALS AND COPING WITH ANXIETY, DISTANCE LEARNING.

LASTLY, WE HAVE APPLIED FOR THE CALIFORNIA MODEL CONTINUATION HIGH SCHOOL DISTINCTION.

RONNIE HAS BEEN KNOWN TO STRUGGLE WITH HIS WORK COMPLETION AND KEEPING HIS GRADES UP IN THE PAST YEARS WITH DISTANCE LEARNING, RONNIE HAS SHOWN RESPONSIBILITY, CONSISTENCY, WORK ETHIC THAT I CAN NOT BE MORE PROUD OF.

FOR THE FIRST I CAN REMEMBER.

RONNIE IS NOT MISSING A SINGLE ASSIGNMENT IN MY CLASS AND AHEAD OF THE GAME.
