Q. Where would these new counselors added to the LCAP be located?

A. They will be working at the district level to develop programs related to bullying, human trafficking, and suicide prevention for site implementation. In addition, they will be on sites, as needed, when crisis support intervention is identified.

Q. Is there anything in the LCAP for safety?

A. Earlier this year, an LCAP meeting highlighted that subject, so we are piloting the door system in two schools in our district, one in Elementary School and one in Middle School to see how this will work and if we find we want to scale this at every site based on feedback.  This door system will require staff to buzz visitors as they come in or out. The other way we can provide safety in our school is by increasing the number of campus safety in our school, one person for two or three schools.  We will be looking at all budgets to determine if we can increase staffing.

Q. What about our site camera systems?

A. Camera systems are very expensive, yet very important. We need one in each school, so in that case, we would need a bond to fix and upgrade some of the current systems in our campuses.

Q. Do we have a camera system at each of our schools?

A. We have one in each school, some need updating for greater visibility and range of sight.

Q. What about monitoring the Camera System inside the schools?

A. Cameras are allowed outside of our school buildings, but not indoors.

Q. How  can we better inform the community about the bonds, and how to help them realize the importance of voting for those bonds, and when to vote yes for them?

A. We need to improve how we inform community members about any potential ballot measure.  What it is and what it is not.  Previously, there have been miscommunication or misconceptions about the proposals.  

Q. Do you consider installing smoke detectors inside the bathrooms for vape detecting purposes?

A. Vape detectors would help to identify use in any restroom.  The challenge would be identifying and interviewing every student using the facilities at the time of detection.

Q. Are all the schools under Title I?
A. We have 20 Title I school sites. The remaining 7 schools do not receive Title I funding.

Q. Do the Non-Title I schools have their own funding? How do they get support?

A.  Every school receives supplemental concentration funding as part of our Local Control and Accountability Plan. Every school also receives base funding for staffing.
