The Board will consider approving the proposed increase of minimum wage for student workers and revising the Miscellaneous Salary Schedule 2017-2018 and Job Description for Student Worker to reflect this increase ordered by California Legislature. |
Purpose Effective January 1, 2018, the minimum wage in California will be increased from $10.50 per hour to $11.00 per hour as directed by the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement. This complies with the new minimum wage phase requirement 2017-2023 SB 3 (See attached Labor Commissioner's Minimum Wage Order). There are two positions on the miscellaneous salary schedule that must be changed to meet the State requirement; Ticket Taker/Time Keeper/Scorekeeper and Student Worker.
Considerations The Board and District will need to consider the impact of the scheduled minimum wage increases on current salaries in the District.
Board Policy BP 4351 Employee Compensation Labor Code Section 1182.13 Senate Bill No. 3 (SB 3 Leno, Chapter 4, Statutes of 2016) Previous Board History January 11, 2017, the Board approved the first minimum wage increase to comply with the new law. The increase was from $10.00 to $10.50.
|
|
The estimated cost of increasing the student wage is $8,600 per year. We currently have 218 student workers. The 218 student workers work in two areas. The first group is site-level cafeteria/snack bar workers. The second group is our 18-22-year-old workability students who are placed in local business and supervised by our workability staff. |
The proposed increase of minimum wage for student workers was approved. |

The Board will consider a bid award for District-Wide waste collection, disposal and recycling services to Recology Sonoma Marin as recommended by staff. |
Purpose To provide District waste and recycling collection. On June 14, 2017, the Board approved the issuance of a Request for Proposals (RFP) for District-Wide Refuse Pick-Up/Disposal Services. Previously, the District received these services at no charge through the City of Santa Rosa vendor who is no longer providing the service. An RFP for Waste Collection and Recycling Services was issued and advertised jointly with the Santa Rosa Junior College. RFP notices were advertised in the Press Democrat and on the District’s website. Proposals were received from Recology Sonoma Marin and Sonoma County Resource and Recovery. Consideration The submitted proposals were reviewed and evaluated by a District committee based on a bid evaluation “scoring” method used to qualify and determine awarding the proposal and produce the ranking based on a one-to-one hundred (1-100) total scale. The District committee determined the most responsive and responsible vendor was Recology Sonoma Marin for a number of reasons including: - Implementation Plan (especially due to compressed schedule, start date of contract to begin January 1, 2018)
- Past Performance and Experience (based on references)
- Value Added Services (Educational Programs and allocation of Zero Waste Team)
- Diversion Plan (Potential savings at 75% diversion)
The contract start date is January 1, 2018. The initial terms of the agreement will be a period of three (3) years with the option to renew for two (2) additional one (1) year terms based on Santa Rosa City Schools' discretion and by mutual consent. All accepted pricing shall remain firm for the first three (3) year term. Board Policy BP 3511.1 Integrated Waste Management
Education Code Ed Code 32370-23276 (Recycling Paper) and 33541 (Environmental education) Previous Board History
In January of 2001, the Board authorized District staff to bid a five-year renewal contract for refuse pick-up/disposal service from 2001-02 through 2005-06. On March 14, 2001, the Board awarded a bid to West Sonoma County Disposal (now known as North Bay Corporation, a Division of the Ratto Group) with a term agreement effective July 1, 2001, through June 30, 2006. On September 24, 2003, the Board approved an Amendment and Assignment to the Refuse Pickup/Disposal Service Contract (attached for reference). The amendment referenced that, "Since the starting date of the Contract, Contractor has been awarded a multi-year refuse contract with the City of Santa Rosa, has bought out the existing City of Santa Rosa refuse contract; and included in the Contractor's bid to the City of Santa Rosa was the offer to provide free refuse and recycling services to the campuses of public schools and colleges within the City limits; and further offered to provide such free services to SRCS, SRCS partner elementary schools and campuses of the Sonoma County Junior College District located within the attendance area of SRCS' High School District." A key term of the agreement, found on page 2, stipulated that "the Agreement of Services, Term of Agreement, is hereby extended to run concurrently with the term of the Contractor's Franchise Agreement with the City of Santa Rosa." The City of Santa Rosa's agreement with North Bay Corporation is scheduled to expire December 31, 2017. The City of Santa Rosa issued a Request for Proposals for Residential and Commercial Garbage, Recycle Material and Organic Waste Collection Services on October 20, 2016. The City's RFP referenced that "Santa Rosa Recycling and Collection (SRRC) currently provides free Solid Waste Collection Services to the Santa Rosa City Schools (SRCS) and Santa Rosa Junior College (SRJC) schools and other facilities, however, the current Agreement does not require them to do so." The City has awarded a contract which does not offer free services to SRCS.
|
|
At the current service rates, including bins size, quantities and frequency of pick-ups, the annual cost for the first three years of the contract with Recology Sonoma Marin would be $604,736.04. Pricing in year four will increase by about 6% and by roughly 3% in year 5. With the implementation of a District-Wide diversion plan at 75%, the annual cost associated with services could potentially be reduced by about 40%. There is also an opportunity to reduce or eliminate summer service which could also net a potential saving. |
The bid award for District-Wide waste collection, disposal and recycling services to Recology Sonoma Marin as recommended by staff was approved. |

The Board will consider approval of Change Order #02 for the Hidden Valley ES Re-roofing Package. |
Purpose This proposed Change Order is being brought to the Board for approval. Consideration A change order is a charge for work not included in a contractor’s scope of work. Change Order procedures and requirements are governed by contract terms and contract law, as well as various laws, which may vary by jurisdiction, for publicly funded projects. Common causes for Change Orders to be created are: - The project’s work was incorrectly estimated.
- The customer of the project team discovers obstacles or possible inefficiencies that require them to deviate from the original plan.
- The customer or project team are inefficient or incapable of completing their required deliverables within budget, and additional money, time or resources must be added to the project.
- During the course of the project, additional features or options are perceived and requested.
- If the contractor has to add work items to the original scope of work at a later date or time in order to achieve the customer’s demands, a fair price for the work items and fees must be added for the materials and labor.
- Extreme weather conditions cause delays or require additional work to complete construction.
The Hidden Valley Middle School Re-Roofing Package contained an Owner Controlled and Unit Price allowance totaling $135,000.00. The items below were added and/or deducted from these allowances. Item #1 Replace Stainless Steel HVAC Condensate Pans: The contract documents specified stainless steel condensate drain pans for HVAC units. The contractor provides a credit of <$17,600.00> to provide composite condensate drain pans in lieu of the specified stainless-steel drain pans for (16) HVAC units. Item #2 Stucco Repairs The contractor was required to remove and replace existing stucco in order to properly flash the roof to wall condition in eight locations. The cost of $6,762.00 will be billed against the project allowance Item #3 Replace Roof Drain Bowl Upon roof removal the contractor uncovered one roof drain bowl that was cracked and in need of replacement. The replacement cost of $2,436.00 will be billed against the project allowance. Item #4 Replace Fascia Gutter The contractor was requested to replace 120 feet of rusted fascia gutter on building J. The work also included the replacement on one downspout leader pipe. The cost of $6,750.00 will be billed against the project allowance.

The contractor was required to remove six HVAC platforms and reframe per architect’s direction. The work also included installation of six new knock down HVAC curbs. The cost of $18,050.00will be billed against the project allowance. Item #6 Replace Building C Rooftop Gas Line The existing building C rooftop gas service was rusted and determined to be non-code compliant due to the use of thread protectors in lieu of couplings. This posed a potential gas leak issue that was in need of repair. The contractor was directed to replace all of the rooftop gas piping on building C. The costs of $13,750.00 will be billed against the project allowance. Item #7 Paint Replaced Fascia and Wood Trim The contractor was required to replace 600 feet of fascia board and 100 feet of wood trim. The district requested the fascia and trim to be painted to match the existing school trim colors. The cost of $5,428.00will be billed against the project allowance. Item #8 Install Owner Furnished HVAC Controls The contractor was requested to install owner furnished HVAC controls consisting of Pelican gateway, repeaters and programming for 16 HVAC units. The cost of $11,989.00 will be billed against the project allowance Item #9 Install HVAC Duct Detectors The contractor was requested to replace inoperable HVAC duct detectors in buildings A and B. Building A duct detectors were not currently connected to the Fire Alarm Control Panel. The contractor was required to install additional conduit, wiring, relays, duct detectors and terminate all connections to the Fire Alarm Control panel. The cost of $17,906.00 will be billed against the project allowance. Item #10 Dry Rot Repairs The contract documents contained provisions for replacement of wood members on a unit price basis. The contractor was required to replace 60 feet of 2x8 and 2 sheets of plywood on one breezeway roof. The contractor was also required to replace 60’ of 2x8 and 1 sheet of plywood on bldg. J. Fascia replacement consisted of 600 feet of 1x12 and 100 feet of 2x6. The cost of $13,051.00 will be billed against the project allowance. Item #11 Credit for Unused Owner and Unit Price Allowances The contractor is providing a credit in the amount of <$57,618.00> for the unused portion of the Owner Controlled and Unit Price Allowance. Board Policy BP 7115 Construction Change Orders Education Code There is no Education Code associated with this item. Previous Board History The Board previously approved Hidden Valley Elementary Roofing / HVAC Project change order #01 on April 12, 2017. This was a deductive change order in the amount of $548,755.
|
|
The Decrease in cost of Change Order #2 is: $57,618.00 The total Change Orders to date is <$606,373.00> This equates to a decrease of 32% of the original contract value. |

The Board will consider approval of an adjustment to the original QKA contract for architectural and engineering services for the Maria Carrillo Stadium Field Project. |
Purpose Approve adjustment to the QKA contract for architectural design and engineering services for the Carrillo Stadium Field Project based on an increase in final approved construction cost. Consideration At the inception of the Maria Carrillo Stadium Field Project, the estimated construction cost was approximately $2,500,000. Due to rising construction costs and with the added Division of State Architects (DSA) requirements, the actual cost of the project, as awarded to KYA Services LLC, is $4,545,627. Per the contract, QKA is entitled to a fee adjustment of $234,563 based on the final approved cost of the project. Board Policy There is no Board Policy associated with this item. Education Code There is no Education Code associated with this item.
Board History On August 9, 2017, the Board approved KYA Services LLC to complete the Carrillo Stadium Project including an artificial playing field and synthetic all-weather track and field area. On September 14, 2016, the Board approved the Carrillo Stadium Field Project.
|
|
This is a Measure I Funded Project. Due to the final construction cost of this project, QKA is contractually obligated to receive an additional $234,563 for architectural and engineering services for the Carrillo Stadium Project. Measure I Expenditure: $234,563 |

The Board will consider approval of Resolution 2017-18/021 to declare approximately 1,005 non-operable electronics and miscellaneous items as obsolete and of insufficient value and authorize staff to sell and/or dispose of the items. |
Purpose All of the items identified in the Disposal of Obsolete Computers, Related Equipment / Electronics and Miscellaneous Equipment document is over three years old (most of it much older) which is the generally accepted threshold for determining whether it has any resale value. The identified equipment has predominantly been used for instructional applications and has been replaced by newer equipment during the last two or three years. Resolution 2017-18/021 if approved by the Board will allow the District to Dispose the Obsolete Items Consideration With the exception of some old units that were relocated from school sites to the District Warehouse, most of the units have been stored at school sites that can use occupied space for other purposes. The quantity of items at each site could increase slightly between preparation of this agenda item and actual disposal since new electronic items are arriving daily to replace the obsolete equipment. Page 2 of the Disposal of Obsolete Computers, Related Equipment / Electronics and Miscellaneous Equipment describes locations and quantities of miscellaneous items to be disposed of. Board Policy BP 3270 Sale And Disposal Of Books, Equipment And Supplies Education Code - 17546 Ed Code 17546 Sale of Personal Property Previous Board History most recently at the Board Meeting on June 14, 2017 the Board acts on recommendations to declare old equipment as surplus and to authorize disposal by the appropriate means.
|
|
Electronic waste will be picked up and removed from the District at no cost. Items that are not picked up will be disposed of at the District's expense. Vehicles will be picked up by a local salvage yard at no cost. |

The Board will consider approval of a Designation of Applicant's Agent Resolution for Non-State Agencies for the purpose of obtaining certain federal financial assistance for disaster recovery. |
Purpose Under Public Law 93-288 as amended by the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act of 1988, and/or state financial assistance under the California Disaster Assistance Act (CDAA), grant funding is available to local agencies impacted by State and Federally declared disasters. The attached resolution is required for the district to receive emergency funding from the Governor's Office of Emergency Services (CalOES) to repair damage caused by the October 2017 wildfires, and is one of the required steps to ensure that the district will be reimbursed for funds expended on disaster recovery work.
Consideration Reimbursement from state and federal agencies due to the damage and loss due to the October 2017 wildfires. Board Policy There is no board policy associated with this resolution. Education Code
There is no Education Code associated with this resolution. Previous Board History No other resolution for the purposes described has been considered by the Board. On October 16, 2017, the Board approved Resolution 2017/18-019 in accordance with state and federal requirements during a declared emergency and disaster. The Board also approved Resolution 2017/18-020 giving authority to the Board President for immediate approval of actions as a result of the wildfires.

The Board will consider approval of the new CSEA job descriptions. Student and Family Services has developed three new job classifications for approval. The "Enhanced Staffing Assistant" and the" LVN-IA" are new classifications which will provide the District cost savings and better control of work currently being done by private vendors. The "Attendance Specialist" is a modification to a previously unused classification that was written into the Chronic Absenteeism grant previously approved by the Board. All positions are CSEA unit work and final approval is pending from CSEA in January. |
Purpose Human Resources recommends the approval of two new and one renewal for classified job descriptions. These descriptions will allow the district to hire employees instead of outside agencies staff which provide fewer costs and more control over their work. These classified positions are represented by CSEA. Consideration As a standard process in Santa Rosa City Schools, job classifications are analyzed for utility and effectiveness in meeting the needs of staff and students. Currently "Non-Public Agencies" (NPA) are used in Student and Family services to support students through their IEP or 504 plan. These supports are intended to supplement the existing school resources such as nursing services with medically fragile students, or supplement behavior supports for students with emotional regulation issues. The classification of Licensed Vocational Nurse - Instructional Assistant (LVN-IA) is created to replace the use of LVN nurses currently used throughout the district to provide medical and diabetes services to students. There are currently ten NPA nurses used in the District. Special Services expects to hire 3-5 positions to replace a portion of these current NPA services. This classification is a hybrid that allows the LVN qualified nurse to also function as a classroom assistant and therefore can be used throughout the school site. For each position hired, Special Services expects to save $10,25 annually.
The classification of "Enhanced Staffing Assistant" is created to replace "1:1 Aides" that are used in the District currently staffed by NPAs. There are currently 35 NPA assistants used in the District. Special Services expects to hire at least 2-4 aides immediately and use them to support our already existing behavioral supports. For each position hired, there is an estimated $8,689 in savings. The classification of Attendance Specialist / Community Worker is a previous CSEA approved position that is currently not in use. The position has been re-issued to support the Chronic Absenteeism Grant that Student and Family Engagement received last spring. The grant expects to hire 3 positions to be divided up to support and train the school sites on case management, attendance tracking and supports. This position is grant funded, and when posted, it will be noted as such. CSEA has reviewed these classifications and will be bringing these to their membership in January. If there are any modifications, they will be brought back to the board for confirmation. Board Policy

The Board will consider approval of the 2017-18 First Interim Report. |
Purpose This Interim Report updates the 2017-18 budget and revises the projections for the two subsequent years. The budget reflects the fourth year under the Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF). It is extremely important to understand the assumptions built into the projections, as they continue to change and may dramatically affect the financial projections. The actual LCFF calculation continues to be updated with the latest available information. In addition, the Local Control Accountability Plan (LCAP) is expected to guide the District’s budget. California school districts are required to submit two major financial updates throughout the fiscal year, the First Interim Report that is based on activity through October 31 and the Second Interim Report, which is based on activity through January 31. After receiving the information, the Board is required to certify that the District “will” (positive certification), “will not” (negative certification), or “may not” (qualified certification) meet its financial obligations for the current fiscal year and/or the two succeeding fiscal years. Considerations
Based on the current assumptions, it is expected that the District may not be able to meet the financial obligations for the current and/or succeeding two fiscal years and, therefore, it is recommended that the District file a qualified certification. Board Policy

The Board will receive information on current bond progress and upcoming projects, fire recovery related to the displacement of students from Hidden Valley Elementary Satellite, and the Prop 39 Energy Expenditure Plan progress.
|
Purpose In November of 2014, the Santa Rosa Community approved two Prop 39 General Obligation Bonds for Santa Rosa City Schools: Measure I ($175,000,000 - Santa Rosa High School District) and Measure L ($54,000,000 - Santa Rosa Elementary School District). As part of our commitment to using these funds as intended, updates are presented to the Board to show current progress and on-going planning. Through this presentation, bond related work over the last 6 months will be highlighted and information on future projects will be presented. In addition to bond projects, the Board will also receive information on progress made for Prop 39 Energy Expenditure Planning and the Hidden Valley Satellite Fire Recovery. Consideration Prop 39 General Obligation Bonds A Prop 39 general obligation bond, approved by 55% local vote, authorizes bonds for repair, construction or replacement of school facilities addressing safety, class size, and information technology needs. Bond proceeds will be repaid from a tax to be levied on the taxable property within the boundaries of the High School District and Elementary School District respectively. Costs of issuing the bonds will be paid from the proceeds of the bonds and not from the general fund of Santa Rosa City Schools. Measure I and L Santa Rosa City Schools Bond Program is committed to: - Providing a Safe and Modern Learning Environment
- Current and Reliable Technology and Labs
- School Repair Measures to Support Student Success
The Bond Measures can be used at our school sites to: - Repair or replace leaky roofs
- Provide updated technology to prepare students for college and careers
- Repair or replace deteriorating plumbing, sewer, and electrical systems
- Repair or replace outdated heating, ventilation and air-conditioning systems
- Improve access to classrooms and labs for students with disabilities
- Upgrade campus security, safety, and fire systems at all schools

The Board will consider approval for the Design Proposal provided by PBK Architects for the Roofing and HVAC replacement at the following campuses: Elsie Allen HS, Herbert Slater MS, Hillard Comstock MS, James Monroe ES, Maria Carrillo HS & Santa Rosa HS. This item will be presented in the Bond / Facilities Update Presentation. |
Purpose With approval, design and construction documents will be finalized by PBK Architects for the Summer 2018 Roofing / HVAC Projects. For Summer 2018, six (6) sites are brought forward for roofing / HVAC replacement.
Consideration
As a core tenet of the Measure I and L Bond Programs, providing "Warm, Safe, and Dry" facilities was a top priority for both programs. The six (6) sites represent the dollar amount of projects that can reasonably be completed over the summer. With the completion of bidding documents in early 2018, we anticipate that we will receive a higher number of competitive bids per project. Public bidding of the four (4) non-DSA* projects will begin in January 2018. The two (2) remaining sites will be bid in the spring. After bid completion, project contracts will be brought back to the Board for approval. *Division of State Architect As with the Summer 2017 roofing / HVAC projects, Summer 2018 sites were selected based on assessment and review of the M&O work order system for known issues.

The Board will consider approval of the QKA architectural services proposal for replacement of the Carrillo Stadium press box. This item will be presented in the Bond / Facilities Update Presentation.
|
Purpose Approve the QKA architectural and engineering services proposal for the Carrillo Stadium Field Project. Consideration During the 2015-16 school year the Maria Carrillo High School Stadium Press Box was found not to be in compliance with DSA regulations. In addition to compliance issues, the leaking roof and walls resulted in mold conditions. Due to these circumstances, the building was deemed unusable and subsequently condemned. As part of the Carrillo High School Stadium Project and after feedback from and consultation with site administration, coaches, staff and the parent community, QKA was asked to provide a proposal to install a prefabricated press box on the west or “home” side of the stadium. The press box is used for public address, statisticians, coaches, and filming. The scope of the project will also include electrical and data network access from the press box.

Beginning in July 2017, Education Code 215 was amended by Assembly Bill 2246 which mandates Local Educational Agencies (LEA) that service students in grades 7-12 must adopt a board policy on suicide prevention. As part of the board adoption, a committee must be developed to review these guidelines and make a recommendation to the Board. The Suicide Prevention and Mental Health Awareness committee has made a recommendation for a policy for First Reading. |
Purpose The Governing Board of Santa Rosa City Schools recognizes that suicide is a leading cause of death among youth and that an even greater amount of youth consider (17 percent of high school students) and attempt suicide (over 8 percent of high school students) (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2015).
The possibility of suicide and suicidal ideation requires vigilant attention from our school staff. As a result, we are ethically and legally responsible for providing an appropriate and timely response in preventing suicidal ideation, attempts, and deaths. We also must work to create a safe and nurturing campus that minimizes suicidal ideation in students.
Recognizing that it is the duty of the district and schools to protect the health, safety, and welfare of its students, this policy aims to safeguard students and staff against suicide attempts, deaths and other trauma associated with suicide, including ensuring adequate supports for students, staff, and families affected by suicide attempts and loss. As it is known that the emotional wellness of students greatly impacts school attendance and educational success, this policy shall be paired with other policies that support the emotional and behavioral wellness of students.
Consideration This policy is based on research and best practices in suicide prevention and has been adopted with the understanding that suicide prevention activities decrease suicide risk, increase help-seeking behavior, identify those at risk of suicide, and decrease suicidal behaviors. Empirical evidence refutes a common belief that talking about suicide can increase risk or “place the idea in someone’s mind.”
In an attempt to reduce suicidal behavior and its impact on students and families, Student and Family Services is developing strategies for suicide prevention, intervention, and postvention, and the identification of the mental health challenges frequently associated with suicidal thinking and behavior. These strategies shall include professional development for all school personnel in all job categories who regularly interact with students or are in a position to recognize the risk factors and warning signs of suicide, including substitute teachers, volunteers, expanded learning staff (after school) and other individuals in regular contact with students such as crossing guards, tutors, and coaches. These will be outlined in the Suicide Prevention and Mental Health Guidelines that will be attached to the January 10 Board Action Item. A Suicide Prevention Committee was formed and represented by: Matt Park, School Psychologist Darcy Analora, School Psychologist Marianne Ballatore, School Psychologist Angela Bonner, School Psychologist Karin Sellite, Sonoma County; C.A.P.E. Katie Bivin, Sonoma County: C.A.P.E.
