Agenda Item or Topic:

The Board of Trustees received a letter from Stanislaus County Office of Education regarding the district's Second Interim Report for fiscal year 2019-20.  

Staff to recognize ACSA Region 7 Award recipients for 2019-20.

Staff to present the Board of Trustees with a budget update since the last Special Board Meeting Budget Study Session held on May 26, 2020. 

Staff to present to the Board of Trustees the 2019-20 Governance Goals End of Year Update.

Presented for the Board of Trustee’s approval is the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between California School Employees Association and Its Sylvan Chapter 73 and Sylvan Union School District regarding workdays for classified employees on Calendar #8. Both parties discussed the unprecedented school closure due to COVID-19. The closure presents the District with many challenges including unknown timelines and directives for re-opening school districts in the state. As a result, additional professional development training and days are paused for 2020-2021. Both parties agree that classified employees, on Calendar #8, will work 183 workdays in 2020-2021 and one (1) additional workday, planned for 2020-2021, is cancelled. The attached MOU details the amended agreement.

Staff recommends approval of the Memorandum of Understanding.

There is a cost savings to the District for the reduction of one (1) workday for Calendar #8 of $37,950.

Per Board Direction given to staff at the May 26, 2020, Budget Study Session, the attached resolution #2019/2020 - #28 has been prepared for the board to approve the Temporary Suspension of Plan to Prefund OPEB Obligations.  The suspension has been identified as a temporary measure for the next two (2) fiscal years.

Staff recommends adoption of Resolution 2019/2020 - #28 Temporary Suspension of Plan to Prefund OPEB Obligations.  

It is recommended the Board of Education adopt Resolution 2019/2020 - #28 Temporary Suspension of Plan to Prefund OPEB Obligations.  

Savings of $337,000 to the General Fund

Education Code 17546 allows districts to sell or dispose of obsolete property/instructional materials if the value of the item is less than $2,500.00 and the sale/disposal is approved by an unanimous vote of the Board of Trustees.  All items on these quotes were previously approved by the Board of Trustees to be obsoleted. 

With the complete upgrade of our network we have old switches and servers that are no longer functional on our network.  DTC Computer Supplies has been in business since 1965 purchasing old network equipment.  DTC will provide a certificate of destruction for all items they are purchasing. On-Site pickup with packaging provided by DTC is included at no cost.

Staff recommends the Board of Trustees approve the DTC Computer Supplies purchase order #403216 for servers in the amount of $1,240 and a purchase order #403215 for switches in the amount of $38,730.

It is recommended the Board of Trustees approve the DTC Computer Supplies purchase order for servers in the amount of $1,240 and a purchase order for switches in the amount of $38,730.

Positive Impact:  $39,970.

The District has contracted since 1993 with Keenan for brokerage and consulting services for the management of the District's Employee Benefits Plans. The Board of Trustees and the Unions expressed an interest in seeking alternative options for these services.  In response to this interest and in the due diligence of the District's procurement policies, staff released a Request for Proposals (RFP) for these services.  

The RFP was issued on May 7, 2020, and proposals were due on May 21, 2020.  Three (3) proposals were received form the following brokers: Bohannon Insurance Group, Burnham Benefits, and Keenan.  All proposals received were responsive and proposal evaluations and interviews were held on May 26.  The screening and interviews were conducted by a committee with six (6) members, comprised of two (2) members of each: Sylvan Educators Association (SEA) Union, California School Employees Association, Chapter 73 (CSEA) Union and District administrators.  

After reviewing proposals, conducting interviews, scoring the proposals according to the specified criteria and conducting reference checks with three (3) other school districts, the committee unanimously agreed on the recommendation to award the RFP to Burnham Benefits.  

Burnham Benefits is an experienced broker in serving school districts and has been in business since January 1995.  Burnham is an owner operated, privately held, certified women owned business with a client-centric philosophy.  Burnham is a certified B Corporation, which means they balance purpose and profit and measure the company's social and environmental performance.  

Burnham Benefits is headquartered in Irvine, CA with seven (7) other offices in CA and one (1) in Texas.  The servicing office for Sylvan is in Roseville, CA.  Burnham has a strong presence in Southern California with a growing footprint in Northern California.  

Although it is not always easy to make a change in such an important area as employee benefits are, the committee took this responsibility very seriously and had lengthy discussions and consideration of these factors.  Because of this, the committee members also decided to meet and confer a second time after confirming references for Burnham.   Once all references were conducted and favorable, the committee met and agreed and confirmed their decision to award the contract to Burnham Benefits.

As such, the committee recommends the Board award Burnham and approve the consulting agreement with Burnham Benefits.  The agreement is for an initial two (2) year term, with an optional renewal to add three (3) more years for a total of five (5) years.  Fees for years 1-3 are fixed at $95,000 and increase to $100,000 in years 4 & 5.  Fees are paid through commission from the insurance carriers (Kaiser, Sutter, etc) up to the maximum agreement amount of $95,000/$100,000.  If commissions do not reach the maximum, then the difference can be paid from the district's self insured plans (Dental/Vision) or directly from the District's general fund.  If commissions exceed the maximum, then Burnham will reimburse the district for the excess.   Fees for Burnham are all-inclusive along with their online enrollment platform.  This pricing structure is different than what the District currently has in place with Keenan.  The district's current agreement with Keenan includes separate, direct billing to the District for the online enrollment platform (Benefit Bridge) used by the District.  With this new pricing structure, the District could have potential savings of approx $26,000 to the general fund.  Savings will not be determined until after the close of the first plan year (12/31/2021) serviced by Burnham.

Attached is the Consulting Agreement, the RFP and Addendum, Burnhams's proposal and Burnham's presentation.

Committee recommends the Board of Trustees award the bid to Burnham Benefits and approve the consulting agreement with Burnham Benefits.

It is recommended the Board of Trustees award the bid to Burnham Benefits and approve the consulting agreement with Burnham Benefits.

Savings of up to $24,000 to the General Fund. 

Agreement for Maximum Fee of $95,000 in Years 1-3 and $100,000 in Years 4-5.  Fees are paid primarily through carrier commissions, with any remaining amount coming from the District's Self Funded Dental/Vision Plans or the General Fund.

It is recommended the Board of Trustees adopt Resolution 2019/2020 - #29: Ordering Governing Board Member election for the two (2) trustee areas (Area 1 and 4).

It is recommended the Board of Trustees adopt Resolution 2019/2020 - #12, Ordering a Governing Board Member Election for November 3, 2020, election.

Staff recommends the Board of Trustees adopt the March 2020 Board Policy Packet.

At the April 21, 2020, Regular Board meeting, the Board of Trustees was given a "preview" and received policy binders for the March 2020 policy updates.  The Board of Trustees and staff reviewed policy updates for a "first reading" at the May 12, 2020, Regular Board meeting.  A "second reading" will take place at the June 2, 2020, Regular Board meeting, and final reading/adoption at the June 2, 2020, Regular Board meeting.

The Board of Trustees and staff to conduct a "second reading" of the policy updates and minor revisions from March 2020 and adopt the policy packet as presented.  The attached single policies reflect board recommendations for suggested language.  Changes are noted with green highlights.

Screencastify provides educators with the ability to easily record, edit and share videos. As a Google extension, this technological tool makes communication, flipped classrooms, and blended learning more personal. During school closures, Screencastify gained notoriety and was featured in numerous press clippings as a preferred tech tool for connecting teachers and students remotely. In the Sylvan District, educators were encouraged to utilize a free-version of the software for asynchronous student learning, and it was utilized by teachers, counselors, nurses, coaches, specialists, and administrators. However, even before COVID-19, Screencastify was utilized by many teachers and administrators in the Sylvan District who found it to be a useful and valuable tool for blended learning. Sylvan educators have used Screencastify to pre-record lessons for substitutes to play during a teacher’s absence from the classroom, and they have used Screencastify to pre-record tutorials for students to view independently when completing homework or assignments. Screencastify allows teachers to record:

• Full and/or bite-sized lessons

• Assignment solutions and explanations

• Verbal student feedback

As a Google district, Screencastify fits into our workflow with integrations to Google Drive, Google Classroom, and single sign-on. Screencastify meets our District security and privacy standards. Screencastify videos are owned and hosted by the District and are not shared or sold by Screencastify. Free versions of screencastify limit video length and the number of videos per month. Therefore, it is recommended that Screencastify be added to the Sylvan suite of technological tools through the District purchase an a year-long subscription which allows for unlimited usage district-wide in the 2020-21 school year.

Education Code 17546 allows districts to sell or dispose of obsolete property/instructional materials if the value of the item is less than $2,500.00 and the sale/disposal is approved by a unanimous vote of the Board of Trustees.  

The items on this list are iPads that were missed in the previous quotes for Device Cycles.  In addition, we have dismantled the MacMini labs at two (2) middle schools as students will be using their district issues Chromebooks for their computer electives.  These devices are not managed within our mobile device management system so are not secure for students to use.  These items have been added to the list of devices to sell.  After determining that these devices should not be redeployed out for use, I reached out to a company, Device Cycles, that provides an Apple Trade-In Program. 

Device Cycles's vision is to provide an eco-friendly and transparent solution for repurposing technology worldwide. Their mission is to build awareness by helping their customers capture the existing value that exist on technology. They are devoted to supporting both the ecosystem and humankind to make a positive change in the world.  As technology advances, older devices still hold value. Their trade-in programs prolong devices' lifespans by repurposing them to the next generation of owners. Upon receipt of our devices the evaluation process for each device includes a data erasure.  Every device will generate the serial number and capacity.  Their system then reinstalls the latest version of the iOS depending on the model ensuring all data has been erased.  After the data has been cleared, each device will have a certification of data destruction.  Also during the evaluation period, Device Cycles will conduct high-quality images of our devices showing any cosmetic flaw details that provide full transparency and maximize recovered value.  Their audit will grade the devices based on wear, tear or any defects the devices may have.  Based on the evaluation of cosmetics and functionality of each individual device, they will conduct an audit report that includes the serial number, device type, condition and total value access.

Custom packaging and shipping is included at no cost. Pick up date is within twenty one (21) business days of approval offer.  Devices are initially quoted Grade A condition. If units do not meet Grade A specifications upon device evaluation, the correct grade and price listed on the quote will apply to the final reconciliation summary. They must receive the devices prior to the quote expiration date, devices received after the expiration date will result in a reduction of value based on current markets.

Aeries Online Enrollment provides our families with an online enrollment process. The benefits of Aeries Online Enrollment include:
