The district continues to experience need for non-public school and agency (NPS/NPA) services. Provision of service is mandated by law under the Individuals with Disabilities
Education Act (IDEA) for one or more of the following reasons:
• Student has been placed in one of the district’s less restrictive programs and has been found to need a more restrictive setting. The change of placement occurs through the IEP process.
• Student was placed in a NPS or NPA program by another school district prior to the student’s Irvine residency. The placement will continue until reviewed by the IEP team.
• District is unable to provide the type or amount of service required in the student’s IEP due to lack of staff with appropriate qualifications or level of expertise.
• Students, with extreme mental health needs, who are in danger of harming themselves or others and have not been successful in less restrictive placements, may be placed in residential NPS schools in California or out-of-state placements.
Each year the district prepares a master agreement for special education services with nonpublic schools and nonpublic agencies. In addition to the general agreement, individual service agreements for each identified special education student are negotiated at each IEP meeting. NPS/NPA providers work cooperatively with the district to provide services unattainable within the district or other local public schools.

Pending approval from the Board of Education, staff would like to begin preparing the required plans for a kindergarten play structure at Eastshore Elementary School to serve as an age appropriate play area for kindergarten age students. The site administration submitted a site modification request for the play structure as the campus does not currently have a play structure dedicated to the transitional kindergarten/kindergarten program.
In order to obtain the required approvals, staff will need to begin working with an architectural firm to prepare drawings for submission to the Division of the State Architect (DSA).
On February 15, 2011 the Board of Education approved a shortlist of architectural firms established from a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) issued by the Facilities and Construction Services Department for small projects of $1.5 million or less. Staff is recommending Webb Cleff Architecture to provide architectural services for the play structure at Eastshore Elementary School due to their past work performance with the district and overall value.

Cypress Village Elementary School was master planned to accommodate 900 students with 700 students in permanent capacity per Board Policy 7112. Based on the initial and projected enrollment, there is a need to increase capacity by four (4) classrooms. Staff is recommending these classrooms be placed this summer in anticipation of the projected enrollment needs. It is projected that the school site will need to house students at the maximum capacity for more than five (5) years; therefore, staff is recommending that modular classrooms (“villa-style”) are placed in lieu of standard relocatable classrooms. Staff recommends these modular classrooms be purchased and staff will seek any available state funding to off-set the project costs. In addition, it was recommended by the Facilities Advisory Committee that these modular classrooms also include a student collaboration space similar to the permanent construction.
On February 3, 2015, the Board of Education authorized the retention of Ruhnau Ruhnau Clarke Architects to provide architectural services for the placement of four (4) relocatable classrooms and one (1) shared commons area at Cypress Village Elementary School.
On January 29, 2015 in accordance with Board Policy, staff mailed notices advising adjacent residents of Cypress Village Elementary School of the proposal to place four (4) relocatable classrooms and one (1) shared commons area. The public was informed of the public information meeting at which the topic would be discussed.
PUBLIC INFORMATION MEETING
On February 12, 2015, staff conducted a public information meeting at Cypress Village Elementary School to hear comments regarding the proposed placement of relocatable classrooms. Two (2) residents were present at the meeting and had no objection to the project as proposed.
At this time, staff is requesting Board approval to purchase the relocatables as set forth in the current contract Bid Package No. R-01 between the District and Silver Creek Industries, Inc.

Largely in response to the Orange County bankruptcy, the District’s Finance Committee was formed in 1995 to review perpetual budget challenges and provide oversight and input. Over the years the Finance Committee has evolved and currently serves as an independent advisory committee on the District’s financial affairs. The current membership includes one appointee per Board member. In addition, representatives from ITA, CSEA, IAA, PTA and IPSF participate as advisory members. The Assistant Superintendent of Business Services and Director of Fiscal Services facilitate the meetings and provide frequent updates on the District’s finances.
In 2013-14, California adopted and implemented a new funding model for K-12 Education, the Local Control Funding Formula. The new funding model represents a fundamental change in how K-12 school districts had been funded for nearly forty years. Accompanying the new funding model are accountability requirements which necessitate the annual development and/or modification of a Local Control Accountability Plan. The Local Control Accountability Plan (LCAP) is required to illustrate how school districts are using specific revenues generated under the Local Control Funding Formula to benefit disadvantaged students.
The development of the Local Control Accountability Plan involves soliciting and receiving input and feedback on budgetary and programmatic expenditures from all community stakeholder groups. The opportunity for input, along with the continual transparency provided through board meeting presentations, budget study sessions, and the availability of presentations and financial documents on the district’s website provide ample opportunities for community oversight and input.
With the expanded role of stakeholder involvement due to the LCAP process, the IUSD Governing Board has requested a discussion surrounding the continued need and/or relevance of the Finance Committee.
