| Members of the public are encouraged to attend Board meetings and to address the Board concerning any item on the agenda or within the Board’s jurisdiction. However, if attendees at Governing Board meetings refuse to comply with Los Angeles County Department of Public Health masking requirements, they put the health and safety of other attendees at risk. The Board will consider extending Resolution No. 21/22-13 determining the possibility of holding Governing Board Meetings in a virtual format. |
| On September 17, 2021, the Governor signed Assembly Bill 361 extending the authority of legislative bodies, including school district governing boards, to conduct teleconferencing meetings if the board complies with the requirements of the bill.
The Los Angeles County Department of Public Health has implemented an indoor masking requirement for everyone at K-12 schools regardless of vaccination status. This requirement is in line with the California Department of Public Health’s masking requirements. School boards are similarly required to enforce mask requirements in public meetings. When members of the public refuse to comply with health orders by refusing to wear a mask or wearing a mask that does not properly cover both the nose and mouth, it causes disruption to the Governing Board meeting and puts the health and safety of other attendees at risk.
Under Resolution No. 21/22-13, should such an event occur, the Board will approve the recess of the Board meeting and the reconvening of the same meeting, after a thirty (30) minute recess, via teleconferencing in a virtual format and may continue to hold Board meetings in a virtual format for a period not to exceed 30-days. |

| The Hart District is proud to join more than 1,000 local educational agencies in the state in recognizing the contributions of Board members during School Board Recognition Month. In this time of unprecedented challenges in nearly every sector of life, Board members have worked tirelessly to help the District establish new ways of ensuring students continue to learn. |
| Roughly 5,100 California school board trustees — the largest group of elected officials in the state — aid in supporting student success by establishing policy priorities and benchmarks. Trustees provide a critical accountability link between the schools and the community, and offer an accessibility to voters that is unrivaled by other public officeholders.
The Board sets the foundation and vision for the District, directs resources where they are most needed, and ensures accountability to the community by monitoring progress toward goals. Their end goal, of course, is to support and elevate student achievement.
Please join the Hart District in saluting our hard-working Board members for their support of our students through effective policies and for their continuing advocacy for more resources at the state level. |

| School districts with trustee area systems are required to review and, if necessary, adjust their trustee area map by March 1, 2022, to ensure population balance. |
| In 2015, the District transitioned to a by-trustee area election system to ensure compliance with the California Voting Rights Act (“CVRA”). However, following each federal census, the Board must approve adjustments of trustee area boundaries, if necessary, to make sure the population in each trustee area is as nearly as equal as practicable, amongst other considerations. (Education Code section 5019.5(a)) In late September 2020, following a delay due to COVID-19, the 2020 Census data was approved and released by the California Department of Finance.
After review of the current trustee areas, and based on the most recent census data, the District’s demographer determined that the existing trustee area map is now no longer in compliance with California Education Code section 5019.5 since the population is no longer balanced. The demographer has created adjusted map options for consideration to ensure approval, compliance, and submission to County well in advance of the February 28, 2022 deadline. The adjusted map options were previously presented to the community and the Board for review. The Board will consider adoption of a resolution after selection of one of the adjusted map options as its new trustee area map. |
|
Adopt Resolution No. 21/22-31 approving and adopting an adjusted trustee area plan following the release of the 2020 Census data and select an adjusted trustee area plan.

| The Cube, formerly the Valencia Ice Station, has been purchased and is now operated by The City of Santa Clarita. The previous owner of the Ice Station had worked with the Hart District to allow for Valencia High School student parking during school days. This Reciprocal Use License Agreement now formalizes that process between the City of Santa Clarita and the Hart District, as well as provides for additional parking for Cube events that take place after school hours or on non-school days. These dates and events will be mutually agreed upon between the City and Valencia High School. |

| Resolution No. 21/22-28, presenting the Annual Reportable Fees Report on developer fees expended in the fiscal year 2020/21, is submitted for approval. |
| The District has received and expended developer fees, both statutory (Level 1) and/or alternative (Level 2) school facilities fees (“reportable fees”), during fiscal year 2020/21 for the construction and/or modernization of the District’s school facilities to accommodate students from new development.
Government Code Section 66006(b) requires the District make a report available within one hundred eighty (180) days after the last day of each fiscal year detailing certain information on the collection and expenditure of reportable fees. The District made this report, “The William S. Hart Union High School District Annual Reportable Fees Report for Fiscal Year 2020/21, in Compliance with Government Code Sections 66006 and 66001,” available to the public on or before December 27, 2021.
The attached report contains the requisite information and proposed findings concerning reportable fees pursuant to Government Code Sections 66006 and 66001. Further, the District has provided notice of the time and place for this meeting, where the report will be considered for adoption, by mail at least fifteen (15) days prior to the Governing Board meeting, to any interested party who filed a written notice request. The meeting notice has also been posted in the District’s regular public notice posting locations and the District’s website. |
|
| See attached report. Pursuant to California Government Code Section 66006(a), the District is required to and has deposited reportable fees into a separate capital facilities account (the District uses Fund 25 – Capital Facilities Fund). |

A quote from Musco Sports Lighting, LLC (Musco), for the Canyon High School and Valencia High School Stadium Light Replacement Project using the Sourcewell piggyback government contract is presented for approval.
|
|
The District has been in the process of replacing all incandescent and fluorescent fixtures with more energy efficient LED lights. Staff would also like to replace the incandescent light fixtures in the outdoor stadium facilities at Canyon and Valencia High Schools with more energy efficient LED lights. Some of the existing non-LED lights at both stadiums have already started to fail and need to be replaced. Based on discussions with Musco, a retrofit to LED lights could reduce energy usage by 50 to 65 percent.
At the November 4, 2020, Board meeting, the Board authorized the design and creation of bid documents for this project. The design and bid documents were completed and approved by the Division of the State Architect. Musco has provided the District a quote based on the bid documents. Musco is an approved vendor under Sourcewell. Sourcewell is a government agency that procures sports lighting with related supplies and services. Board Policy and Public Contract Code allow the District to use piggyback procurement contracts to purchase supplies and services in order to take advantage of lower costs realized through economics-of-scale.
Staff plans to complete the stadium lighting replacements at both stadiums (Canyon and Valencia High Schools) over the summer.

| Essentialism – Publisher: Crown Business – Author: McKeown– Course Area: – Social Emotional Learning and Honors English 12 – Grades: 12 – The way of the essentialist isn’t about getting more done in less time. It’s about getting only the right things done. It is not a time management strategy or a productivity technique. It is a systematic discipline for discerning what is absolutely essential, then eliminating everything that is not, so we can make the highest possible contribution towards the things that really matter. By forcing us to apply a more selective criteria for what is essential, the disciplined pursuit of less empowers us to reclaim control of our own choices about where to spend our precious time and energy – instead of giving others the implicit permission to choose for us. Essentialism is not one more thing – it’s a whole new way of doing everything. It’s about doing less, but better, in every area of our lives. Essentialism is a movement whose time has come. |

| Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence is being contracted to provide training and technical assistance services in its RULER approach for the purposes of promoting teacher and student social and emotional development in schools. |
| The Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence created a systemic approach to social-emotional learning called RULER, which is an acronym for the five skills of emotional intelligence: Recognizing emotions in oneself and others; Understanding the causes and consequences of emotions; Labeling emotions with a nuanced vocabulary; Expressing emotions in accordance with cultural norms and social context; and Regulating emotions with helpful strategies.
RULER aims to infuse the principles of emotional intelligence into how leaders lead, teachers teach, students learn, and families support students. RULER implementation begins with staff personal and professional learning. The program continues with classroom instruction for students and family engagement and education. A small team of school staff has the option to attend a training in person or online. Following training, the team receives remote coaching and online resources to lead RULER implementation in their school community. |

| State and federal laws require schools to annually review and update their School Plan for Student Achievement. These site-specific plans describe school improvement activities that are supported with categorical funds. |
| State and federal laws require schools to annually review and update their School Plan for Student Achievement. These site-specific plans describe school improvement activities that are supported with categorical funds. As required by Senate Bill 374, the school leadership, site council, and advisory committee conducted a comprehensive needs assessment as well as an analysis of student achievement data based on the California Dashboard to develop objectives for their action plan.
Analysis of the plans reveal necessary updates and revisions. Each school site council has approved the revisions, after consulting with each school leadership team and advisory council, and recommends them to the Board for approval. All legal requirements remain in place for the plan that was approved in July 2021. Annual evaluations conducted at that time meet the requirements of Board Policy 6190.
Attached are the revisions for the school plans for Hart High School and La Mesa Junior High School for the 2021/22 school year. Goals and action plans remain aligned with Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) District goals and school goals for increased student achievement. |
|
| School plans account for the spending of Title I federal grant money allocated to school sites specifically for increasing student achievement at schools with a minimum of 40 percent socioeconomically disadvantaged students. The revisions modify the actions and services within the plan guiding how funds will be spent at the school site. |

| An agreement for student cellular hotspot service with T-Mobile for Education is presented for ratification. |
| Starting in October of 2020, the District has provided cellular hotspots to students without reliable home internet access to ensure connectivity for distance learning and other after school activities. Most of these hotspots were provided at no charge by the State of California and the Los Angeles County Office of Education (LACOE) for one year. After the initial pre-paid year, the District assumed ownership of the hotspots and the financial responsibility for the monthly service charges for any hotspots remaining in service. Almost all of the District’s cellular hotspots use T-Mobile for Education as the cellular carrier.
When the District assumed financial responsibility for the hotspots near the end of 2021, an agreement was signed to lock in the monthly service rates. This was done to protect the District from anticipated rate increases by T-Mobile for Education. The agreement does not require that the District continue service on any or all of the hotspots; it only locks in the monthly service rate for the length of the agreement. This agreement will be effective for one year, commencing November 21, 2021, and ending on November 20, 2022. |
