LEGAL AND FINANCIAL REPORTS

ATTORNEY'S REPORT

Attorney's Report

Mr. Ronald Day, Attorney for the Board, reported as follows: Spencer Development Company vs. ISD-89

"You'll recall that back in October the County Assessor changed the assessment on the area in dispute from our district to 1-52. At that time we'filed a motion to stay the district court's order changing the school district boundary line pending the outcome of the present appeal. During the holidays, the Oklahoma Supreme Court ordered the opposition to respond to our motion to stay and file briefs by January 4, which they have done. We would anticipate a ruling from the Supreme Court on the motion to stay the order pending the appeal in the near future. Otherwise in that case, the opposition has a timeline of January 20 within which to file their main brief on the appeal."

Special Staff Report - Chapter I Achievement in 1983-84 John Crawford, Planning, Research & Evaluation Department Senior Research Associate, presented a summmary of the annual report on Chapter I achievement. Using overhead transparencies illustrating the reading and math gains, Dr. Crawford explained that the data would show historical trends for the three most recent academic years, 81-82, 82-83, 83-84. The program serves 5-6,000 students in the district. He discussed state-wide gains, program objectives, correlation of minutes in program with gain, computer assisted instruction, and the new process for identifying potential retainees early in the school year. He reported on a process of feeding back information to teachers that was originally collected in their classrooms.

SPECIAL REPORT CHAPTER I ACHIEVEMENT, 1983-84

Dr. Crawford reported that in 1981-82 the gains in reading were approximately 1.2 points; the gains went up in 82-83 to 2-1/3 points; and in 83-84 the gains in reading were almost 7 NCE points. He said the 83-84 gains in math were almost 9 NCE points on the average. State-wide gains for Chapter I programs were in the range of 4-5 points. From 81-82 and 82-83 the district went from being below state-wide norms on gains for Chapter I to being well above them in 83-84.

Following his report, Dr. Crawford responded to questions from Dr. Heath and Ms. Brody. He also announced that the Oklahoma City Public Schools: Chapter I program had been nominated by the Oklahoma State Department of Education for exemplary status for national recognition.

REMARKS SUPERINTENDENT

Remarks

Dr. Wright made the following statement to the Board: "I have accepted a contract as Superintendent with the Arlington, Texas School District, which will begin at the conclusion of my contract with the Oklahoma City Public Schools on July 1, 1985. I have sincerely enjoyed my two years of association with the Oklahoma City Public Schools, and found it to be rewarding both personally and professionally.

"During the past two years, several areas of our school district's operation have been particularly rewarding:

1)

The citizens have approved two bond issues after having turned down a much needed bond issues three years ago. The monies from the successful bond issus have begun the process of upgrading our physical facilities.

2)

Our district has increased student achievement scores, particularly in the areas of reading and math. I think the almost vertical lines on tonight's report in Chapter I, which affects 6,000 students in our school district, is very symbolic of that increase.

3)

We've addressed the concerns of the community and staff relative to student discipline through the implementation of an assertive discipline program.

4)

We've received expanded support from the business community through our parthership programs with the Oklahoma City chamber of Commerce. We presently have over 100 businesses and civic organizations participating in our adopt-a-school and volunteer programs. We definitely have a more positive image within the business community.

Remarks - Cont'd

5)

During the 1983-84 school year we met the challenge of reduced budgets caused by state funding cutbacks without causing any reduction in force and were able to provide reasonable salary increases to all our employees.

6)

Our relationships with all our employye groups have been strengthened as evidenced by the early settlement of our negotiated agreements, while other districts have not been so fortunate.

REMARKS SUPERINTENDENT, CONT'D

"Superintendency of the Arlington, Texas, School District, which I will assume on July 1, 1985, is a professional move into a rapidly growing district that offers many challenges. The state of Texas has recently made a strong commitment to education, and will be implementing many new programs such as preschool education, of which I am greatly interested.

"The Oklahoma City Public Schools is an outstanding school district. appreciate the dedication of the board members, my administrative staff, and all the employees of our district. We are an effective team, always keeping the students' best interest in the forefront of our decisions.

I

"I look forward to my next six months as Superintendent of the Oklahoma City Public Schools, and pledge to devote 100% of my energies to the students, staff, and community. Thank you." Mrs. Hermes made the following statement:

"I informally accept Dr. Wright's notification that he has been employed elsewhere, and therefore will not renew his contract July 1, 1985. I accept this on behalf of the Board." Mrs. Hermes announced that Dr. Wright's statement would appear on the agenda of the next regular meeting of the Board (January 21, 1985) for formal action.

A special meeting was scheduled for Monday, January 14, 1985 at 4 p.m. for the purpose of discussing guidelines for a superintendent search, including the possibility of an information-gathering board committee to prepare search options which will be considered by the Board at a future meeting; also, to discuss the making of an appointment, if necessary, of an interim superintendent which will become effective on Dr. Wright's departure.

SPECIAL MEETING SCHEDULED FOR JANUARY 14, 1985

PERSONNEL REPORT Dr. Muse made the motion, seconded by Mrs. Hill, that the following persons be employed as of the effective date specified, and that contracts or assignment notifications with the appropriate persons herein listed be approved as executed in the name of the district by the Superintendent or person by him designated; also, that other personnel recommendations including terminations, leaves, retirements, resignations, and other information listed be approved.

On roll call the votes were as follows: Ms. Brody, aye; Mr. Long, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye; Dr. Muse, aye; Dr. Heath, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye. All aye. Mrs. Hermes declared the motion carried.

ROLL CALL

SPECIAL BUSINESS Mrs. Hermes announced the purpose of the special meeting was to discuss guidelines for a superintendent "search", including the possibility of an appointment of an information gathering board committee to prepare search options which will be considered by the Board at a future meeting.

SPECIAL BUSINESS

The Board utilized an itemized list of guidelines/standards for conducting a superintendent search. Following discussion of the items, consensus was reached as follows (the Board will adapt as necessary the actual search process):

1.

Geographical Area for Search

The search will target Oklahoma and surrounding states: Texas, Arkansas, Colorado, Missouri, New Mexico; with no prejudice against any incoming applications from any state in the continental United States. Advertisements will be placed in the local papers of surrounding states and in two national trade journals (AASA's The Administrator and NSBA's The Executive Educator), and letters will be sent to selected schools of education that train administrators seeking recommendations of individuals to apply. 2.

Use of Consultant

It was decided to employ a consultant to assist the Board in locating suitable candidates. Mrs. Hermes appointed a board committee consisting of LaRue Donwerth, Chairperson; Paul Heath, and Betty Hill. The committee's charge is to solicit proposals from local consulting firms that could be used to help in hiring a new superintendent. The committee may also contact NSBA, AASA, other national consulting firms, and a consortium of universities in Oklahoma for additional information on national consultants in the event the Board decides to employ a national, rather than local firm.

BOARD COMMITTEE APPOINTED TO SOLICIT PROPOSALS FROM CONSULTANTS

The committee will present all proposals and information at the regular meeting of the Board on January 21, 1985. If information is not gathered by January 21, 1985, a special meeting may be called for Monday, January 28, 1985 for the report. The interviews of consulting firms will take place during the regular“meeting of February 4, 1985 (meeting to be rescheduled to begin at 4 p.m.)

"This committee was appointed at the last Board Meeting (January 7, 1985), and the members consist of Mrs. Hill, Dr. Heath, and myself. Our charge was to solicit proposals from local consulting firms and/or groups to assist with our search for a superintendent of Oklahoma City Public Schools. "We met Tuesday, January 15th, at 3 p.m. with all members of the committee present. Staff members included Mr. Ginn and Mr. Barlow. We contacted Dr. Jack Parker, the Dean of the College of Education, University of Oklahoma, in reference to information on the university consortium, known as the Oklahoma Schools Superintendency Search Service (OSSSS); (other) consulting firms; consulting groups; and various alternatives to present back to the Board. We also made individual contacts of Jim Farris & Associates, Arthur Young & Associates, a variety of financial consulting firms, and we did go ahead and contact NSBA as was requested by staff. "The committee met again last Friday, January 18, in Mr. Ginn's office to discuss the responses. We received written proposals from Dr. Parker with the OSSSS; Jim Farris & Associates, Arthur Young & Associates, and we reviewed these responses. Copies have been furnished to each of the Board members.

Consultant Search Committee Report - Cont'd

"It is the recommendation of the committee that although we appreciate the interest and the qualifications offered by the firms of Jim Farris & Associates and Arthur Young & Associates, we felt they are primarily executive search firms with limited experience in the field of education. We, therefore, would like to recommend the Oklahoma Schools Superintendency Search Service made up of persons from Oklahoma University, Oklahoma State University and Tulsa University, chaired by Dr. Jack Parker. We are basing this recommendation on the following rationale:

CONSULTANT SEARCH COMMITTEE REPORT

1)

This consortium offers expertise in the field of education. contacts throughout the country in this field.

2)

The consortium has an obvious interest in education, and we feel assured that they are not motivated by this as a money-making project, but more as a community service for a very nominal fee.

3)

As a former superintendent of the Oklahoma City Schoolshimself, we feel Dr. Parker and other members of the OSSSS are very knowledgeable about our district, the state laws that we must adhere to, and have our best interest at heart. Therefore, the committee feels very comfortable that the consortium is personally interested in securing the best possible candidates for this important position."

It has

On behalf of the Board, Mrs. Hermes accepted the Board Committee's report. Mrs. Donwerth stated she would make a motion under "New Business" concerning the selection of the OSSSS to serve as consultant.

Board Member Comments COMMENTS MRS. HILL

Mrs. Hill reported that the joint I-89/Vo-Tech 22 Committee, which meets four times each year, had met the past week. She announced that some Grant High School students who are enrolled in a vocational course called Technial Physics, scored higher on a post-test than any of the other groups in enrolled the same type of pilot program throughout the country.

Mrs. Hermes said she had recently attended a computer fair at Dewey Fifth Year Center, and was impressed with the program at that school. ITEMS PENDING

CENTENNIAL PLANNING COMMITTEE REPORT

At the meeting of April 16, 1984, the Board directed that a committee be formed to plan for the 1989 Oklahoma State Centennial celebration. Mr. Mike Barlow, Director of Community Affairs and Chairman of the Committee, presented an interim progress report of the Centennial Committee. Mr. Barlow reported that the committee has been meeting regularly since October, 1984. He said a subcommittee-type structure was proposed where certain areas that need to be put into an overall plan would be identified, and then employees and patrons of the district would be allowed to get involved and devise exactly what they would do in those categories. At this point, six major categories have been identified: Art, Community & Government, Science, Historical, Contests & Competition, and funding. About 60 potential activities that could fit into those categories have been discussed.

LEGAL REPORT ATTORNEY'S REPORT

Mr. Ronald Day reported as follows: NGTF vs. 1-89 "This afternoon I had the opportunity to speak with Mr. Larry Lewis, the legal counsel for the State School Boards Association. You'll recall that organization is representing the Board in the action which was argued before the U. S. Supreme Court on January 14; that being NGTF vs. 1-89. Mr. Lewis informed me that he felt that the oral arguments went well, and he is of the opinion that based upon the questions asked by the various justices that there is a possibility that: 1) the action, not the appeal, might be dismissed because there are no underlying facts to support it; and 2) that the U. S. Supreme Court might refer the question of the constitutionality of the subject statute back to the Oklahoma Supreme Court for consideration before it made up its mind on the final issue. He did not know, however, when the court might hand down a written decision on the case.

Sale of Sunnyside School Property

"On page A-13 tonight you'll have under consideration under General Business items 1 and 2, the sale of the Sunnyside School property. I have been working with Mrs. Askew's attorney and Mr. Shepard on this transaction and I would join in his recommendation that the Board approve that sale this evening."

Mr. Gootes presented the Board with the keys to three flood-damaged Buicks to be used in the automotive programs at John Marshall, Northeast, and Douglass High Schools. Mr. Gootes said the donation was intended as a way for the Buick Dealers in the area to work with the school district in training good automobile mechanics, which they needed. Dr. Wright and Mrs. Hermes thanked Mr. Gootes for the gift to the district.

Remarks Dr. Wright reported on the Inservice Day sessions held that day. He said most of the sessions were held at Northwest Classen and were well attended, that the general session speaker was outstanding, and that the small group sessions were also very good and instructive. Concerning the Board's direction that staff conduct a community meeting for hearings concerning the Hoover/Eisenhower portion of the Student Assignment Plan for 1985-86, Dr. Wright reported that a community meeting was held at John Marshall High School on Thursday, January 10, 1985. Of the 198 persons present from both schools, 115 were patrons, 41 were teachers, and 42 were students. Thirty-seven persons addressed the staff panel and received responses to their questions and concerns. Dr. Wright stated that he held a staff meeting the day following the community meeting to go over the input. He said after all the meetings, phone calls, and letters that had been received that it was hard to determine exactly how many people were on either side of the issue; that it was a

He said after assimilating all the information and hearing from both sides of the issue, it was his considered judgment that the best recommendation he could make to the Board of Education was to continue with the plan as presented; that unless he heard further from the Board in terms of other recommendations, motions, or suggestions, that staff would immediately embark on implementation of the plan. Dr. Wright said he was very concerned about rebuilding the human relationships between all parties that had gone through what had been, in his opinion, a very democratic process, but also a process in which many times it was easy to strike out against individuals rather than issues. He said he would do everything he could to organize and have activities going that would bring everyone back together, as they must be, in order to make this or any other plan successful in the Oklahoma City Public Schools. He said staff would implement the plan commencing the next day unless there was further direction from the Board.

On behalf of the Board, President Hermes directed Dr. Wright and Mrs. Mason to begin implementation of the Student Assignment Plan, and encourged them to continue working with the staffs, parent groups, and students to make the transition as smooth as possible for the 1985-86 school year. She said the Board would support staff in all efforts to make the transition smooth.

UNFINISHED BUSINESS

1.

Dr. Heath made the motion, seconded by Dr. Muse, to accept the statement of resignation made by Dr. Donald Wright during the meeting of January 7, 1985 as follows:

"I have accepted a contract as Superintendent with the Arlington, Texas School District, which will begin at the conclusion of my contract with the Oklahoma City Public Schools on July 1, 1985. I have sincerely enjoyed my two years of association with the Oklahoma City Public Schools, and found it to be rewarding both personally and professionally. "During the past two years, several areas of our school district's operation have been particularly rewarding: 1)

The citizens have approved two bond issues after having turned down a much needed bond issues three years ago. The monies from the successful bond issus have begun the process of upgrading our physical facilities.

2)

Our district has increased student achievement scores, particularly in the areas of reading and math. I think the almost vertical lines on tonight's report in Chapter I, which affects 6,000 students in our school district, is very symbolic of that increase.

3)

We've addressed the concerns of the community and staff relative to student discipline through the implementation of an assertive discipline program.

4)

We've received expanded support from the business community through our partnership programs with the Oklahoma City Chamber of Commerce. We presently have over 100 businesses and civic organizations participating in our Adopt-A-School and volunteer programs. We definitely have a more positive image within the business community.

5)

During the 1983-84 school year we met the challenge of reduced budgets caused by state funding cutbacks without causing any reduction in force and were able to provide reasonable salary increases to all our employees.

6)

Our relationships with all our employee groups have been strengthened as evidenced by the early settlement of our negotiated agreements, while other districts have not been so fortunate.

"Superintendency of the Arlington, Texas, School District, which I will assume on July 1, 1985, is a professional move into a rapidly growing district that offers many challenges. The state of Texas has recently made a strong commitment to education, and will be implementing many new programs such as preschool education, of which I am greatly interested.

"The Oklahoma City Public Schools is an outstanding school district. appreciate the dedication of the board members, my administrative staff, and all the employees of our district. We are an effective team, always keeping the students' best interest in the forefront of our decisions.

I

"I look forward to my next six months as Superintendent of the Oklahoma City Public Schools, and pledge to devote 100% of my energies to the students, staff, and community. Thank you." Mrs. Hermes stated she would regretfully accept the statement on behalf of the Board. She remarked that under Dr. Wright's leadership the district had achieved higher test scores, cleaner and better facilities, that Dr. Wright had helped with the community and business relationships, and that the media had supported the district far better than they ever did before.

On roll call the votes were as follows: Ms. Brody, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye* Dr. Muse, aye; Dr. Heath, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye. All aye. Mrs. Hermes declared the motion carried.

ROLL CALL

SPECIAL BUSINESS

The purpose of the special meeting was for: 1) a board committee report (Consultative Services Search Committee) regarding an agreement with the Oklahoma School Superintendency Search Service (OSSSS) to conduct a “superintendent search" for the Oklahoma City Board of Education; and 2) a discussion by the Board with Dr. Jack F. Parker, spokesperson for Oklahoma School Superintendency Search Service (OSSSS) regarding the guidelines and other plans and/or activities to be used during the superintendent search.

SPECIAL BUSINESS :BOARD COMMITTEE REPORT, DISCUSSION : WITH CONSULTANT i FOR SUPERINTENDENT ?SEARCH

Mrs. Donwerth, chairperson of the board committee, stated that the committee had been charged with developing an agreement between the Oklahoma School Superintendency Search Service and the Oklahoma City Board of Education. The committee members, Mrs. Hill, Dr. Heath, and Mrs. Donwerth, met at 11:30 a.m. on Thursday, January 24, 1985 with Hugh Ginn, Ronald Day (attorney for the Board), and Dr. Jack Parker, Chairman of the OSSSS. Mrs. Donwerth reminded the Board that each board member had been sent for their review the draft copies of the proposed agreement and the proposed vacancy announcement. A motion was made by Mrs. Donwerth and seconded by Mrs. Hill that the committee's report be accepted; that the proposed agreement which was developed by the committee and the search consultant be approved; and that the proposed vacancy announcement be approved. (Copies of the agreement and the vacancy announcement are on file in the office of the Clerk.) Mrs. Hermes then introduced Dr. Parker, and asked him to give a brief background of the organization and to highlight the agreement between the Board and the OSSSS. Dr. Parker gave the following explanation:

"Two or three years ago, those of us who work in the preparation programs for educational administrators at our university (O.U.), at Oklahoma State University and at Tulsa University got together and talked about what we perceived as a problem in Oklahoma, and that is that many boards of education were having difficulty in finding {consultant) help in looking for superintendents. In the cases where they had looked for and found help, in some cases it turned out to be rather expensive, and in other cases not very satisfactory. We thought because we represent those institutions

and because we feel some obligation to Oklahoma that it would be worthwhile for us to offer this kind of service.

"We have in our agreement that we will have a consultant from each of the three universities involved in each of the searches with one of the constultants designated as chairman for specific searches. We've done probably five or six in the last year or so. A couple are in progress now in school systems around Oklahoma.

"As far as this particular agreement is concerned, this group has always taken the position that it ought to be essentially a non-profit enterprise, and that's what it is. The cost to the School Board will simply be the cost for the consultants' time and any other expenses associated with the search; telephoning, travel, and so forth."

Following Dr. Parker's statement there was additional discussion concerning the contents of the documents. On roll call the votes were as follows: Ms. Brody, aye; Mr. Long, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye; Dr. Muse, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye. All aye. Mrs. Hermes declared the motion carried.

DISCUSSION OF VACANCY ANNOUNCEMENT

The Board then reviewed with Dr. Parker the entire vacancy announcement, and discussed at length the various statements of qualifications, application and selection procedure, etc., included in the announcement. There was consensus that in general the vacancy announcement as presented in draft form to the Board would be used, with only one addition. Concerning the relationship between the Board and the Superintendent a statement would be added as follows (under "Qualifications"): "Possess a record of having the ability to interact effectively with the entire board as well as with individual members of the Board". (Minor corrections to the vacancy announcement will be made as necessary.) The Board requested that Dr. Parker and/or other representatives of the OSSSS meet with one or more representatives of various community and employee groups (12-15 persons per session) to allow them to give input on the type of superintendent they would like too see providing leadership to the district. The following organizations, groups and/or business were identified (more groups may be added to this list):

1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.

Core and Expanded Staff Teachers' Unions Support Personnel Union Principals' Association Both Chambers of Commerce Adopt-A-School Parental Groups (appointed by Board members) Student Leaders

9.

Community Groups a) Urban League b) NAACP c) Baptist Ministerial Alliance d) United Ministerial Alliance Concerned Clergy S. R. (CSSR) e) f) Arts Council 9) League of Women Voters h) Media

Dr. Parker will work with Mr. Ginn in making arrangements for the meetings. In other discussions, it was decided that Dr. Parker would make a progress report to the Board sometime in the next two months; and that any persons interested in the superintendent's position would be referred to Dr. Parker for information.

SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT STAFF REPORT WAIVER OF MATHEMATICS AND/OR SCIENCE UNITS

Special Staff Reports (a)

Waiver of Mathematics and/or Science Units

Board members had received for review prior to the meeting copies of memorandums which presented information and recommendations to waive mathematics and/or science units of credit required for graduation in lieu of vocational units of credit, and also provided background information regarding the origin of the recommendations. Dr. Wright called on Dr. Jesse Lindley to respond to questions from the Board. Dr. Lindley stated that the State Department of Education makes it permissive for a school district to waive a unit of math and/or science if a student completes successfully during their junior and/or senior year some vocational units of credit. Dr. Heath asked if it would be possible to have a form that both a student and parent would sign to acknowledge their full understanding of the waiver. Dr. Wright cautioned that a new form would be "creating new paper" and that all the pertinent information would be contained in the Curriculum Guide. Various members of the Board expressed the hope that counselors would make it very clear to students how waiving a math or science credit could have a deleterious effect on their eligibility for entrance to certain colleges and universities.

There was other discussion concerning justification for cosmetology to be considered a science credit, the course of study in the dental assistant program, and other.

.

Dr. Wright stated he would provide, as requested for further study, course outlines for the vocational courses recommended as waivers (substitutes) for math/ science units of credit, along with a recommendation for board action at the regular meeting of February 18, 1985.

(b)

Proposed Transitional Classes Dr. Lindley introduced Christina Kiser, Coordinator Curriculum Implementation K-5, to report on her research of transitional programs throughout the State of Oklahoma and to make a recommendation to implement transitional classes in this district.

STAFF REPORT PROPOSED TRANSITIONAL CLASSES

Ms. Kiser gave a background of the Educational Services Department's study of transitional classes, and said they had merit for Oklahoma City Public Schools. She proposed the implementation of five classes with three days' inservice for teachers included. Materials, according to Ms. Kiser, would cost approximately $1,000 per classroom to begin with, and an ongoing cost of $500 per year. Teacher's salary was estimated at $20,000 per year for each additional allocation required. She supported limiting class size to 22 students. Concerning evaluation of the program, Ms. Kiser recommended a longitudinal study of at least five years, tracking students who were recommended for the program and who did not participate and matching their scores with those of the students who chose to participate. One class in each of the areas of Oklahoma City were proposed; one in Star Spencer, one in the far north, one in the central city, and east side, and south side.

Following the report there was discussion between the Board, Dr. Wright, and Ms. Kiser concerning the screening process for children to be placed in a transition class; the favorable response to the proposed transition classes by principals and teachers; which buildings the classes would be located in; the cost of the program, and other. The question was raised concerning the district providing transportation for a student to take advantage of a transition class when that class was not available at his/her assigned school. Mr. Day responded that if the transition classes were required by state law, the obligation to provide transportation equally and fairly as with other such course training would be applicable. But if there was not a statutory obligation to provide it in the curriculum, the Board would have discretion to decide what it would take to qualify for a transfer and what would be done with regard to transportation. The transition class could be considered an option, and if a parent wished to take the benefit of the option they would have to provide the transportation. Dr. Wright stated he would bring a recommendation on implementation of the program back to the Board at a future date. 2.

She stated she preferred for her children to have interaction with children of other races and backgrounds; that she was proud of the natural integration of the school. She asked the Board to recognize West Nichols Hills as "an exemplary school and keep it alive".

Burbank School Hearings

BURBANK SCHOOL

Two persons addressed the Board as follows:

1.

Amy Anderson, Burbank Student - Amy stated she was nine years old and had attended Burbank since kindergarten. She said she liked the school because of its teachers, cleanliness, and the PROMISE (gifted) program, She also told of supportive parents, the many school activities; and of Burbank having been "adopted" by nine businesses. She was concerned that she and her friends would be separated if the school was closed.

2.

Ms. Brenda Guest, Burbank Patron - Ms. Guest stated that the Burbank parents were actively involved in and proud of their school. She cited ceiling fans and a Big Toy as examples of successful fundraisers. She commented that some of the students were attending Burbank because of Belle Isle Elementary School being closed, and those students were now having to face another school closing. Ms. Guest also mentioned that two day care centers are in close proximity to the school.

COMMENTS DR. HEATH

Following the hearings, Dr. Heath stated that the Riverside community has a special and unique character with its Spanish-American origins, very influential church, and active involvement in so many community projects and activities. He said the claim that the public school had provided a very useful service was a valid claim; however, considering the present state of the budget he could not justify the expenditure it would take to maintain the school for such a small group of people.

Opening Statement by Respondent

OPENING STATEMENT BY RESPONDENT

Mr. Savage made his opening statement as follows: "We are here today to hear the appeal of a recommendation for termination for Mr. Calvin Thomas for willful neglect of duty. We have presented documented evidence, and we will have witnesses to testify that his behavior for willful neglect of duty is plainly shown. We will also show that he has been given opportunities to improve his performance over the past year and has failed to do so. The next-to-the-last Significant Event Report that he received will show that he was, in fact, warned and understood the warning that any further action on his part adverse to the procedures used by the department that he worked for would be grounds for recommendation for termination. We will ask at the end of this hearing that the Board uphold the recommendation."

POSTPONEMENT DENIED

Mr. Cowans asked for a postponement of the hearing in order to familiarize himself with Mr. Thomas' case. Mr. Cowans explained that Arthur Johnson, the President of the L.I.U., was unable to attend the hearing and that he was filling in. Following discussion by the Board, Mrs. Hermes stated that the concensus of the Board was to hear the appeal. It was pointed out that the Union had previously agreed to the date for the hearing and that adequate notice had been given.

OPENING STATEMENT BY APPELLANT

Opening Statement by Appellant In his opening statement, Mr. Cowans said that there was not enough evidence to justify termination; that termination was too stiff a penalty, and Mr. Thomas should instead be given a short suspension and another chance.

Presentation of Witnesses for Respondent

(Both witnesses were sworn in by the attorney as they were called to testify.) DIRECT QUESTIONING BY RESPONDENT WITNESS #1, JACK HOUSAN

Direct Questioning by Respondent - Witness #1, Jack Housan Mr. Jack Housan, Custodial Services Area Supervisor (Area 4), testified that he had been Mr. Thomas' supervisor approximately two years. He recalled that he had counseled with and warned Mr. Thomas several times about leaving work prior to the first Significant Event Report, which was written on November 16, 1983. At that time Mr. Thomas was working at Parker Fifth Year Center. Approximately one month later a second Significant Event Report was filed. Mr. Housan described the circumstances surrounding this incident. A third Significant Event Report was written on January 4, 1984 for unscheduled leave. Mr. Thomas was assigned to Dewey Fifth Year Center in October of 1984.

Mr. Savage asked about the report written up prior to the one recommending termination. Mr. Housan responded that he had written one counseling session report, dated January 21, 1985, prior to the Significant Event Report written on January 24, 1985 recommending termination. Mr. Housan stated he had counseled with Mr. Thomas verbally at least once a month; that he had treated him fairly, given him ample opportunity to improve his performance; and that Mr. Thomas had received both three and five-day suspensions. He testified that when Mr. Thomas signed the November 16, 1984 Significant Event Report that he believed Mr. Thomas fully understood that further infractions would result in termination. Concerning the final Significant Event Report recommeding termination, dated January 24, 1985, Mr. Housan stated that Mr. Thomas refused to sign, and that the refusal was witnessed by Raymond Randall, Custodial Services Administrative Supervisor, and Cathy Jones, Secretary. CROSS-EXAMINATION BY APPELLANT WITNESS #1, JACK HOUSAN

Cross-Examination by Appellant - Witness #1, Jack Housan Mr. Cowans questioned Mr. Housan about Mr. Thomas' refusal to sign the final Significant Event Report, about specific incidents where Mr. Thomas had left and building and the building was not cleaned, the procedure for calling in absences, and other. Mr. Housan testified that Mr. Thomas had left his building five or six times in the previous four or five months; recounted several of Mr. Thomas' excuses for leaving his duty station; and said that he had heard no reports of Mr. Thomas having to leave his building because of being sick. In response to questions about the form used to record counseling sessions, Mr. Housan stated that it was provided by the Custodial Department and he hadI used the form to document some counseling sessions. He repeated that he hadI had numerous counseling sessions with Mr. Thomas that were never written up-, and that Mr. Golden, the Head Custodian at Dewey, as well as the principal at Dewey, had counseled with Mr. Thomas in an’effort to improve his performance.

There was no redirect by the Respondent.

MINUTES OF MEETING OF FEBRUARY 18, 1985 - CONT'D

TERMINATION HEARING - CONT'D Direct Questioning by Respondent - Witness #2, Raymond Randall

Mr. Savage asked Mr. Randall if Mr. Thomas had been given the same benefit of counseling sessions as were given to all other employees to show them what was expected of them in their job assignments. Mr. Randall said "yes". It was also shown that Mr. Randall had discussed with Mr. Thomas his problem of neglect of duty with his immediate supervisor present; and that he had approved Mr. Housan's recommendation for termination. In response to Mr. Savage's questions concerning the fairness of discipline issued to Mr. Thomas, Mr. Randall testified that there had been occasions when a five day suspension, for example, had been recommended but he had reduced the length of suspension, and other times when he suggested that merely a counseling session report be filed instead of a Significant Event Report. He said Mr. Thomas did show improvement for a short time, but regressed.

DIRECT QUESTIONING BY RESPONDENT WITNESS #2, RAYMOND RANDALL

In other testimony, Mr. Randall explained the procedure for calling in absences; stated Mr. Thomas always had an excuse the day following an absence, some legitimate, some not in his judgment. He affirmed an incident where Mr. Thomas had reported to work and was located some time later asleep outside the building. Mr. Savage asked if Mr. Randall believed he had followed the District's recommended procedure of progressive discipline in working with Mr. Thomas to get him to improve his performance on the job. Mr. Randall replied, "Absolutely. More than normal".

Cross-Examination by Appellant - Witness #2, Raymond Randall Mr. Cowans asked about the number of times Mr. Randall had counseled with Mr. Thomas and if he had been given the opportunity to contact his union representative. Mr. Randall responded that when an employee signed a Significant Event Report and there was no conflict he saw no reason to advise them of their right to appeal. However, any time termination was recommended he always advised the individual of their right to appeal. He stated he informed Mr. Thomas that he could contact the union to have them represent him in an appeal, and also gave him Jim Savage's name and telephone number for information concerning the appeal process.

CROSSEXAMINATION BY APPELLANT WITNESS #2, RAYMOND RANDALL

Mr. Cowans asked other questions concerning the incident when Mr. Thomas was found asleep outside the building, and about times when Mr. Randall suspected Mr. Thomas of being intoxicated during counseling sessions.

There was no redirect by Mr. Savage. Mr. Cowans called no witnesses to testify for the appellant. Board President Hermes asked Mr. Thomas if he had anything to say before the closing statements. Mr. Thomas said he did not. Closing Statement by Respondent

Mr. Savage's closing statement was as follows: "Mr. Thomas, a custodial worker in the district, was employed in August of 1982. He received his first Significant Event Report in November of 1983. During the next year and few months he received several others, along with many counseling sessions. (There were) both oral and written reports based on counseling sessions. He has been suspended without pay for willful neglect of duty on more than one occasion. He was aware of the consequences of his actions in November of 1984 when a Significant Event Report was given to him, and was given a fiveday suspension without pay. He was warned that any other offense would result in a recommendation for termination from his job as a custodial worker. Mr. Thomas signed the Significant Event Report in November and did not offer rebuttal. "The district has a policy of giving employees a chance to succeed in their positions. We believe that the testimony and evidence presented today clearly shows that Mr. Thomas' supervisors have given him a fair chance to improve his work habits, but he has not. The employee is always notified he has a right to appeal any disciplinary action taken against him. They are given an opportunity to sign the Significant Event Report. If they do not sign the Significant

Event Report it is witnessed to the fact that they have seen it, had an opportunity to sign it, and an opportunity to reply. It states on the Significant Event Report that each employee has a right to appeal any decision to the next higher level if they so desire. They also have a right to talk to the Personnel Administrator for Employee Relations if they believe that they have been wrongly disciplined.

"The evidence clearly shows that Mr. Thomas, in spite of all the help and assistance that has been given by his supervisors and warnings to improve his work performance, that he has not (improved his work performance). We ask that you uphold the recommendation for his termination." CLOSING STATEMENT BY APPELLANT

Closing Statement by Appellant

Mr. Cowans (edited) closing statement follows: "I don't believe enough evidence has been shown for Mr. Thomas to be terminated. As far as willful neglect of duty and persistent violation, he didn't neglect his duties willfully. A couple of times something actually happened — we have no proof that it didn't happen. Failure to satisfactorily perform his duties is actually what they're saying. "I really don't know what this Significant Event Report for the termination is all about. Repeated tardiness, unauthorized absence, excessive absence — he hasn't had that. The termination is supposed to be based on his repeated unauthorized excuses, excessive absences. He hasn't had repeated tardiness or repreated unauthorized excessive absences. "The supervisor said he had talked to other employees and let them know that they could contact the union. It's not done by every supervisor because I know. (Employees) are not told these things. They should be told that they can contact their union representative or their lawyer because a Significant Event Report is very important. Even one could be the last. (He should have been) told from the beginning that he had a chance to appeal the case. He doesn't know, and he's just like a lot of others that don't know.

"I think that the termination is too strong of a sentence because he didn't know. I think that the decision is wrong; I think it should be changed."

She also congratulated Harding Middle School for placing third (1.5 pts. behind first place) in the regional MathCounts competition. As a final comment, Mrs. Hermes expressed appreciation for the Grandparents Day celebrations held the previous week.

VOCATIONAL REPORT

Vocational Report Mrs. Hill introduced Dr. Sally Cole to present her report on a study conducted in October, 1984, at the request of Vo-Tech District 22 concerning District 1-89 students and Vo-Tech 22.

Dr. Cole stated that the study examined three major areas of concern:

1) 2) 3)

Why did 315 students who had pre-enrolled in vo-tech (1/3 of the 1-89 enrollement) not show up for courses in the fall? Evaluation of the 11th grade students' schedules showed that 1,619 did not enroll in vo-tech courses. Why? Could Vo-Tech 22 expect any additional enrollment from this group? How did the 622 students from 1-89 enrolled at Vo-Tech 22 learn about vo-tech; did they have scheduling problems; and in what grade did they decide to enroll in vo-tech?

Some of the findings relative to the first concern were that students were having scheduling conflicts; students failing courses in the second semester had to pick those courses up in their senior year; courses offered only once during the day in the home school forced students to make a choice; vocational credits did not count as electives for college entrance.

One-third of the 11th grade population is enrolled in some type of vocational program, consistent with the enrollments across the country. Dr. Cole said this should be considered a realistic enrollment for 1-89 students. The career survey results indicated that students did not enroll in vo-tech for four major reasons: they had not heard of vo-tech; needed credits in the home school; did not want to leave the home school; or had no interest in the courses offered. One other interesting finding from the survey was that long travel times were not reasons students mentioned for not enrolling. Four hundred ninety-seven students were asked how they learned about vo-tech. Of those, 278 learned via friends and family; 146 through counselors; and 52 learned of vo-tech from the Career Van. Dr. Cole noted that 429 of those made the decision to enroll in vo-tech in the tenth grade. She also emphasized that during the interviews many students told of increased self-esteem once they had gone into a vocational program and began experiencing success. Their academic work at the home school improved as a result.

Dr. Cole stated that the most alarming trend in vo-tech education was that with required credits increasing and the reported schedule conflicts, the vo-tech district would be facing decreasing enrollments each year. She was concerned that students in Oklahoma City would not have the time to leave their buildings for half-day programs. She mentioned that she was pleased to see the cooperation between Vo-Tech 22 and 1-89, and believed there was a concern on both parts to work together to keep the vo-tech program alive.

Burbank School - Cont'd Dr. Heath commented that after his visit to Burbank earlier that day, he felt the same type of conflict others were experiencing as the building was in excellent condition and strategically located in a very nice housing district. He said looking at the overall expenditure per pupil, he could not justify the continuing cost for the small number of children the school served; that lack of population was a reality an inner-city school district had to deal with. Dr. Heath also acknowledged the difficult task of the staff to keep the Board informed throughout the school closing process.

R. #60 BURBANK SCHOOL CLOSED; STUDENTS MOVED TO WEST NICHOLS HILLS CONT'D

Mrs. Hill thanked the parents who had answered difficult questions and shared information with her earlier in the day.

Mr. Long stated he would vote against the closing of all three schools. He said closing Burbank would leave a "wide open stretch of no-man's land on the western boundary of our district where we will not have a school building in operation". He said it was hard for him to justify keeping a building open with so few children, but felt there were considerations other than financial ones. Mrs. Hermes was reminded of 1982 when Sunset parents were fighting the closing of their school. She said in the past year some of those parents have contaced her to thank the Board for that decision because they were now in a facility with stronger parent support, a larger teaching staff, ability for larger programs, etc. On roll call the votes were as follows: Ms. Brody, no; Mr. Long, no; Mrs. Hill, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye; Dr. Muse, no; Dr. Heath, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye. Four aye and three no. Mrs. Hermes declared the motion carried. B.

Riverside School

Dr. Heath made the motion, seconded by Mrs. Donwerth, that Riverside School be closed (at the end of the 1984-85 school year), and that those students currently enrolled at Riverside attend Eugene Field (beginning with the 1985-86 school year). Addressing the Riverside patrons, Dr. Heath stated it was unfortunate that the school could not be operated at a cost that would justify its existence regardless of size. He believed the Riverside parents would eventually be glad for the opportunity to have their children attend the new Eugene Field facility.

Concerning the future of the Riverside building, Mr. Long said he would like to see it maintained as a museum housing artifacts and collectibles from the school system. Mrs. Hermes commented that if the Board voted to close Riverside she was pleased that the students would be assigned to Eugene Field. She said she would like to see a strong Spanish-English bilingual program instituted at the school if one was not already on place.

On roll call the votes were as follows: Ms. Brody, aye; Mr. Long, no; Mrs. Hill, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye; Dr. Muse, no; Dr. Heath, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye. Five aye and two no. Mrs. Hermes declared the motion carried.

Mrs. Hill made the motion, seconded by Dr. Heath that West Nichols Hills School remain open; and that staff bring back new criteria for priority admittance of Oklahoma City (District 1-89) children to the preschool/ daycare program by the March 4, 1985, Board Meeting. Mrs. Hill stated she had not yet received information on the cost of moving the West Nichols Hills preschool and a profit/loss statement for the preschool. She asked to have at least the profit/loss statement by the March 4, 1985 meeting.

To the West Nichols Hills parents-who had fought to keep the preschool/ daycare program open, Mrs. Hermes said it was a viable program. She thought preschool/daycare programs should be placed in the same category as handicapped programs in terms of prohibiting or limiting the movement of these types of programs.

Policy JC, Student School Assignment An emergency being declared by the Board President to allow reassignment of students under the new reorganization plan, a motion was made by Dr. Muse and seconded by Ms. Brody to approve (revised) Policy JC, Student School Assignment, as follows: STUDENT SCHOOL ASSIGNMENT The board believes students should attend the school to which

they are assigned. Annually, the superintendent shall monitor school enrollment and recommend student reassignment plans for Board approval.

Before student reassignments are made, consideration will be

given to existing space in buildings, portable and demountable

use, and relocation of special programs. When fifth year, middle school and high school reassignments are made for closed schools, to relieve overcrowding, or to avoid hazard, etc., the black/total ratio will be a primary factor in

selecting the receiving school for reassigned students. Guidelines for student reassignment, to maintain the required black/total ratios in each school at the three upper levels are

as follows:

A.

Mrs. Hill expressed concern about the ability to maintain racial balance at the fifth year level with only one fifth year center in each of the four sections of the district. Dr. Wright responded that if the racial balance falls out of proportion in the fifth year centers it may become necessary to bring back to the Board other recommendations. He said the Student Assignment Plan stated that the desegregation effort would be made in the fifth through twelfth grade. However, the plan also called for the fifth year centers to be left as originally configured. If some balancing needs to be done, a recommendation will be made to the Board at some future time.

Correction to the minuses as suggested by Mrs. Hermes and approved by the Board on March 4, 1985: One patron, Virginia Miller, was denied a hearing before the Board because the media had announced, through a direct quote, her candidacy for a School Board seat.

1.

Waive a unit of credit (2 credits) in mathematics for students who successfully complete, during their junior and senior years, six vocational units of credit (12 credits) in air-conditioning and refrigeration, electrical trades, sheet metal and auto body.

Staff Report - Policy JEA/JEB, Attendance (Cont'd) Ms. Wakely, Mr. Poole, and Ms. Mason responded to various questions from the Board concerning the regulations of the policy. Mrs. Hermes asked the attorney to look into the legality of considering three unexcused tardies one unexcused absence. Dr. Heath asked that the word "classroom" be inserted before the words "test scores" in paragraph 4 of the policy.

STAFF REPORT POLICY JEBB

B.

Staff Report - Policy JEBB, Attendance/Activities Ms. Mason stated that the new policy was developed as a result of the State Department of Education requesting that every school district in the State of Oklahoma develop an internal activities review committee. The committee was charged with setting up regulations which would determine the number of times students may be absent from school for activity purposes. She said the policy spoke to activities the school district would accept as excused absences and those that would be unexcused. She introduced Mrs. Carolyn Wallace, Northwest Classen Patron, to respond to questions from the Board.

The members of the Internal Activities Committee are as follows: Pamela Thomas, Director, High Schools & Adult Education, Chairperson Martin Pachey, Fine Arts Department Odessa Wycoff, Vocational Department Administrator Marthann Palmer, Counselor, Roosevelt Middle School John Pennington, Teacher, Capitol Hill High School Sheila Crawford, Teacher, Northeast High School Willie Reid, Teacher, Star Spencer High School Robert Hollis, Director, Data Processing Department Carolyn Wallace, Patron, Northwest Classen Elton Matthews, Principal, Northeast High School Wanda Hume, Principal, Eisenhower Middle School

During discussion, Ms. Brody asked that the middle school music tournaments and festivals be reconsidered for inclusion in the listing of exempted activities. Mrs. Wallace pointed out that there was an appeals regulation, as well as a provision stating that students may request in writing from their principal an extension for an excused activity absence.

Mrs. Hermes asked for a more specific definition of "assemblies" under the "miscellaneous" listing of exempted activities. POLICY JEA/JEB FOR ACTION MARCH 18, 1985

Policy JEA/JEB, Attendance (for action March 18, 1985): ATTENDANCE

The board believes that students between the ages of five years and

eighteen years residing in the geographical area of the district should be enrolled in the Oklahoma City Public Schools.

Exceptions include those stu-

dents who have completed four years of high school work, are in attendance

at some private or other school where other means of education are provided,

or where the student has been excused or removed from attendance by reason

of law.

bility for causing student attendance to the parent or guardian, and the

POLICY JEA/JEB, ATTENDANCE FOR ACTION MARCH 18, 1985, CONT'D

superintendent will make the compulsory attendance law known to students,

parents/guardians, and district employees. Students should be in school at all times except for recognized

religious holidays, personal illness, bereavement, or family emergencies.

Students absent for reasons other than those previously mentioned will be counseled and/or alternative educational programs provided.

Grades should be awarded on the basis of the achievement of the student

with the teacher taking into consideration extenuating circumstances.

The

outcomes of homework, test scores, class participation and other learning

activities—-and incentive credit for- attendance are termed to be the achievement of the student.

Students will be permitted to make up any

classwork missed because of any excused absence.

A reasonable period of time will be provided to make up work missed. If the work is made up, the student will be given proper credit.

Failure to

make up work within the allotted time period will result in the student failing the work missed.

Three unexcused tardies will be considered to count as one unexcused absence.

The superintendent shall develop procedures to implement this

policy and the requirements of state statutes and regulations.

5.

Policy JEBB, Attendance/Activities (for action March 18, 1985):

ATTENDANCE/ACTIVITIES The Board believes educational programs are built on the foundation of continuity of instruction and participation in the classroom.

The Board

also believes consistent classroom attendance will assist students toward development of strong work habits, responsibility, and self-discipline.

In

Three persons addressed the Board concerning Policy GCBB as follows: 1.

David Roush, Industrial Arts Teacher, N. W. Classen - Mr. Roush said the bonuses had helped attract and retain quality industrial arts teachers in the district. He said he believed there was still a shortage of qualified industrial arts teachers.

2.

Ann Wilson Witte, O.E.A. - Ms. Witte stated she was concerned that industrial arts teachers were being singled out for deletion in the policy. She said she had been told by someone at the State Department that industrial arts teachers were at a premium. Addressing another issue, Ms. Witte mentioned her office had been receiving calls from Maintenance Department employees who felt they should have more input in the development of the Maintenance Department Volunteer Training Program.

3.

William Hixon, Industrial Arts Teacher, John Marshall - Mr. Hixon spoke about having been attracted to Oklahoma City because of the OCPS industrial arts programs; some promising students in his classes; and his hope that the industrial arts teachers would not be deleted from the bonus program.

6.

Policy GCBB, Professional Staff Supplementary Pay Plan (Cont'd) Dr. Wright responded that the district's hiring of industrial arts teachers was traced over a period of time, and it was found that the district had not had to hire in this area for the last couple of years. He said some of the reasons this district has the teachers available could be because of the good programs, more stringent academic standards keeping enrollments down, or cutbacks in education funding. Dr. Wright said the statements of nation-wide and state-wide shortages of industrial arts teachers were accurate; however it had not been viewed as a critical issue in this district. He said if it looked like a drain would occur or if there appeared to be a problem in recruiting, the bonus for industrial arts teachers could be reinstated. By consensus of the Board, the industrial arts teachers will remain part of the policy. Mrs. Hermes pointed out that other than editorial changes, the only change to the policy as it currently exists would be the addition of computer science.

(NEW POLICY)

STUDENT WELFARE (REPORTING CHILD ABUSE)

POLICY JH, STUDENT WELFARE, FOR ACTION MARCH 18, 1985

It is the intent of the Board to comply with state statutes related to mandatory reporting of suspected child abuse and/or neglect.

Any employee who has reasonable cause to know or suspect that a child

has been subjected to abuse or neglect, or has observed the child being subjected to circumstances or conditions which would reasonably result in

abuse or neglect, as defined by statute, will immediately report or cause a report to be made to the proper authorities.

Persons who knowingly and

willingly fail to report any incident shall be guilty of a misdemeanor. Employees will not contact the child's family or any other person to

determine the cause of the suspected abuse or neglect. It is not the responsibility of the school official or employee to

prove the child has been abused or neglected.

•

The Superintendent will prepare and implement such procedures as are necessary to accomplish the intent of this policy.

Mrs. Donwerth asked for more specific language concerning to whom an employee will report knowledge or suspicion of child abuse/neglect. 9.

Dr. Wright commented that he was pleased the bids for re-roofing and roof repairs as part of the 1984 bond issue had come in considerably lower than anticipated.

Concerning her request from the last Board meeting for a revision to Policy JC, Mrs. Hill stated that the recommendation she received was not what she had wanted to address. Dr. Wright said staff would check on it.

MEMORANDUM

Dr.

FROM:

Pat Watson

RE:

Elementary School Assignments for 1985-86

This is a "house-keeping" memo. It gives specific details of the plan enacted by the Board on December 17, 1984, to establish neighborhood elementary K-4 schools. It would seem that a Board motion to accept assignments described in Attachments B and C (after making adjustments to reflect school closings) is in order.

Definitions Minutes of the December 17 Board Meeting,

state the following:

"In order to provide access to all elementary schools, the open enrollment policy for movement from a majority to a minority school will be in place but at district expense if the receiving school is within the student's assigned section."

After conferring with the Board's Task Force for the Plan, as well as Superintendent's Staff, the following operational definitions were used in planning school assignments: "Access to all elementary schools," "majority" and "minority" are defined in Board Policy JCA (Page 5 of 6, M):

"transfers will be initially assigned to a race* predominate (over the students of his/her (under 50%)."

granted to permit a student, school where students of his/her 50%), to attend a school in which race will be in the minority

"Open enrollment" under the plan goes further than previous policy in that a viable majority to minority transfer option is not only given to the elementary student but is encouraged through 1) district provided transportation and 2) the method of selecting the option. Further, it has been determined that a parent who objects to both the assignment cind option will be offered an equivalent majority to minority option, the goal being to reach agreement with the parent as to a desirable assignment.

MINUTES OF MEETING OF MARCH 4, 1985 - CONT'D

SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT - CONT'D

STUDENT ASSIGNMENT PLAN - CONT'D

Student Assignment Plan (Cont'd) "The student's assigned section11 is defined a geographic area represented on the map and designated as ls 2, 3, 4A, or 4B in Attachment A. With majority to minority transfers to another school within the same section, K-4 students can attend the Fifth Year Center with students in their neighborhood (and other K-4 schoolmates if the majority to minority transfers option was chosen). cls

Student peer relationships, instructional continuity, distance traveled and other aspects of the child's education are likely to be enhanced by limiting assignments within a section.

"At district expense" refers to district provided transportation for grades 1-4 students living more than 1% miles from the assigned school or school within the section of the home address to which a majority to minority transfer was granted. Parents of students opting to attend a minority elementary school in another section would furnish the child transportation at their own expense. (Note that the intent of the Board Motion did not include Fifth Year, Middle or High School students being transported at district expense to an optional school. Majority to minority transfers at these levels are handled as described in revised policy JCA.)

"Assigned School" for elementary is the building listed in columns 2 and 3 of Analysis of Attendance Areas for 1985-86 (Attachment B).

Elementary school assignments in most, but not all cases coincide with attendance area boundaries shown on the map in Attachment A and are identified by a three-digit number. Exceptions to the map are areas where zones have been reassigned due to overcrowding, closed buildings, or hazardous crossings. Method of Determining the Majority to Minority Transfer Option

"Option where student would be in the minority" is specified for each attendance area in the table in Attachment C. Whenever possible, the minority school option for Blacks in K-4th grade is the school they attended in 1984-85. Th’e 19’84-85 assignments conformed to the "cluster plan" where majority Black schools were paired with majority Non-Black schools for purposes of desegregation. Whenever possible, the minority school transfer option for Non-Blacks was the K-4 assigned (neighborhood) school for Black students who had been paired with those same Non-Blacks in the 1984-85, K-4 school.

The rationale for paired schools being the best choice of minority transfer option was as follows:

oPeer and race relations had already been established between students in the previously paired schools.

oParents would be more likely to choose a majority to minority school option and students would more likely prefer to attend a school where peer relationships already existed.

_oThe intent was to perpetuate desegregation as much as possible and actively promote transfers from majority to minority K-4 schools.

SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT - CONT'D Student Assignment Plan (Cont'd) -------- ------------- a------------ -

STUDENT ASSIGNMENT PLAN - CONT'D

If a large number of students exercise the same option, it is conceivable that the minority school could exceed 50% and become the majority of a different race. In that case, applications for a transfer of this type for the 1985-86 school year will have to be examined and perhaps limited in number at a particular school. When that becomes necessary, an equivalent option will be offered.

"Equivalent option" will be a school that as nearly as possible, meets the same criteria as the original option, specifically, a school: 1.

Within the boundaries of the same section as the student's fifth year center.

2.

Paired with the student's school ment plan.

3.

Nearest to the student's residence.

The letter in Attachment D will go to parents of students not eligible for a Majority to Minority Transfer.

The letter in Attachment E will go to parents of students who are in a majority at their assigned K-4 school. The process for handling letters about Majority to Minority transfers is shown in Attachment F.

Students in self-contained special education classes will not receive a letter since their assignments are contingent on projections and the final placement of self-contained classes.

Learning Laboratory Costs

Approval for payments due for equipment and maintenance costs (maintenance costs include consumable materials, time, inservice, testing/prescriptions, etc.) from Prescription Learning for laboratories in the learning centers at Polk Fifth Year Center, Jackson Middle School, and Capitol Hill Middle School for the 1984-85 school year. This total payment, in the amount of $58,500, is to be charged to Account 1230.03, Chapter I, and has been approved on our Federal Educational Grant and/or Programs. Hearing

Randy Powers, Painter, Maintenance Department, addressed the Board concerning the maintenance training program. Mr. Powers stated that the B.A.T. training program had created feelings of animosity; that many Maintenance Department employees felt the Maintenance training program was similar to the B.A.T. program and they feared they would not have any input in formulating the program; and they wanted a vote of the union membership to see if the employees even wanted a training program. Dr. Allison Patrick, Support Personnel Training Coordinator, responded to Mr. Powers' concerns. He said since approximately the first of December he had conducted an almost continuing run of interviews with individuals and groups of individuals; that in fact, Mr. Powers had attended one of those small group interviews. One of the primary purposes for the interviews, he said, was to develop a needs assessment for each skill. Dr. Patrick said there were some well-deserved feelings of apprehension, but pointed out that the program was strictly voluntary. Mrs. Hill asked if all the employees who completed the training would start out at step one on the salary schedule, or if after testing would enter at different levels. Dr. Patrick stated that another important part of the plan was a job competency test to demonstrate current skill levels. He said he knew from some semi-violent discussions that the job competency test was very, very threatening to people at^the Service Center for several reasons. He gave assurance that any test developed and/or found would be well-validated in organizations similar to those at the Service Center, and would definitely be job-related. Dr. Patrick pointed out that approximately three weeks earlier the complete training plan was made available at the Service Center to the supervisors,

and they were encouraged to share the contents of the plan with their employees. Upon request by Mrs. Hermes, Maintenance Department Supervisors Hobert Foster, Charles Schaeffer, Bill Shelton, and John Dilbeck, who were in attendance at the meeting, affirmed that they had had made the plan available for review and inspection by their employees. Dr. Heath asked Mr. Powers if one of his concerns was whether the tests for measured skills would be given in a verbal test that might put one at a disadvantage if he could not read well. Mr. Powers said it was. Dr. Patrick said provisions for having the test read had been addressed. He also said that in every group he had talked to, he encouraged individuals who had difficulty reading, or if they knew of someone who had difficulty reading, to take advantage of the district's adult basic education courses being offered at Emerson. In further explanation, Dr. Patrick said the primary purpose of the testing program was to determine in what skills an individual was deficient, and from that determination individualize a training program. He added that he fully anticipated there would be people who would not need any additional training.

On roll call for the four items of General Business, the votes were as follows: Ms. Brody, aye; Mr. Long, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye; Dr. Muse, aye; Dr. Heath, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye. All aye. Mrs. Hermes declared the motion carried.

NEW BUSINESS 1.

Mrs. Hill mentioned one of the things discussed at the Council of Urban Boards Steering Committee meeting was executive sessions. She said most other boards around the country held their executive sessions before their regular meetings. She suggested the Board consider having their executive sessions prior to the regular meetings in order to avoid the late-night executive sessions.

MOTION TO REVISE PROCEDURE FOR HOLDING EXECUTIVE SESSIONS - FOR ACTION 3/18/85

Mrs. Hill then made the following motion, which was seconded by Mrs. Donwerth (for action March 18, 1985):

"I move that when an executive session is required on Regular Meeting days, that a Special Meeting be called prior to our Regular Meetings for that purpose."

Mr. Ginn reminded the Board that even though a Special Meeting could be called for an executive session prior to a Regular Meeting, that would not prohibit them from including an additional executive session in the agenda of the Regular Meeting any time they wished.

Mrs. Hill stated she was concerned that some district personnel who had won national awards and recognition for various accomplishments were having to pay their own travel expenses to attend award ceremonies. She directed staff to bring the Board some guidelines on sending district personnel to various award ceremonies at district expense, possibly using some of the funds that were frozen in July, 1984. Dr. Wright said he would have a recommendation for the Board at the March 18, 1985 meeting.

3.

Concerning Policy AD, Educational Philosophy, Mrs. Hill said she felt this policy statement, adopted in 1975, did not adequately speak to everything the Board was trying to accomplish at this point. She mentioned student achievement, high expectations, academic excellence, time on task, and homework as some areas to be addressed. She said she would like, sometime in the future, to have a committee formed to develop a way to evaluate the criteria.

Concerning item 3, the feasibility of providing two juice breaks during the time students take the CAT tests, Dr. Wright reported that staff had been unable to locate a sponsor to provide either the juice or the funds to purchase the juice for the district. The recommendation was to allow individual schools to decide whether or not to pursue a sponsor on their own. Ms. Brody asked that item 3 be removed from the list of items pending. Dr. Wright also reported on item number 5, the request to have all elementary schools on the same starting time. He said staff believed it would be possible for all elementary schools to have the same starting time, beginning with the 1985-86 school year, because of the projected decrease of elementary bus routes due to neighborhood schools. (Item 5 to be removed from the Items Pending list.)

SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT R. #99 APPROVAL OF EXTENDED SCHOOL YEAR PROGRAM

1.

1985 Extended School Year Program

Ms. Brody made the motion, seconded by Mrs. Donwerth, to approve a proposal submitted by the Educational Services Department as guidelines for the operation of a 1985 Extended School Year Program for Severely and Multiple-Handicapped Children. The forty (40) day program, one-half (approximately) of which is during the 1984-85 fiscal year, and one-half (approximately) of which is in the 1985-86 fiscal year (planning to begin on June 4, 1985 and end July 31, 1985—July 4-5 vacation days), is to be operated at a cost of $55,240 (best estimate), one-half (approximately) of which is to be paid from Federal Flow-Thru Funds and one-half (approximately) to be paid from general funds. Dr. Muse stated he supported the program, but wondered if consideration had been given to a student's regression after he or she completed their schooling in the public schools. Dr. Wright responded that some other agency would have to assume responsibility for a handicapped student after age 21; that it was hoped^after graduation students would be in a position through workshops, shelters, etc., to make it on their own. He said the primary purpose

Budget requirements for the new configuration for 1984-85 is:_a reduction of $10,003 to original allocation.

Mrs. Hill questioned the need for eliminating the two specialist positions and creating the one coordinator position. Dr. Wright responded that staff felt the department would function well with the five people indicated; that the department would save money overall; and that upgrading the two specialist positions to that of one coordinator would be more effective since a person with more skill and experience could be hired. Mrs. Hill and Mrs. Donwerth said they could not support "emergency" approval of a new job description which the Board had not previously reviewed. They were concerned that the specialist positions had not been filled for most of the year, but the Board was now being asked to waive the posting procedure, as provided for in the revised policy, and expedite approval of a new position.

Mrs. Hill and Mrs. Hermes believed the position should have been placed on schedule 751 instead of 752, as recommended. There was discussion between the Board and Vern Moore, Director of Personnel Services, concerning the responsibilities of the coordinator and the justification for classification of the position. Mrs. Donwerth said she would like to see Policy GCCA/GDCA, Posting of Staff Vacancies, reinstated in its previous form (prior to the February 4, 1985 revision), and would make a motion under New Business to that effect. Mrs. Hill made an amendment to the motion that the position not be filled on an emergency basis; that the coordinator position be posted as of Tuesday, March 19, according to Policy GCCA/GDCA. Mrs. Donwerth seconded the amendment to the motion.

Discussing the amendment, Dr. Muse and Ms. Brody said they felt delaying the filling of the position would negatively impact the operation of the department.

Mrs. Hill made the motion, seconded by Mrs. Donwerth, to approve Policy JC, Student School Assignment, as follows: STUDENT SCHOOL ASSIGNMENT

The board believes students should attend the school to which they are assigned.

Annually, the superintendent shall monitor school

enrollment and

recommend student reassignment plans for Board approval.

Before

student reassignments are made, consideration will be given to

existing space in buildings, portable and demountable use, and

relocation of special programs. When fifth year, middle school and high school reassignments are

made for closed schools, to relieve overcrowding, or to avoid

hazard, etc., the black/total ratio will be a primary factor in selecting the receiving school for reassigned students.

Guidelines for student reassignment, to maintain the required black/total ratios in each school at the three upper levels are as follows:

A.

All attendance areas will be included in computing the district black/total level ratios;

B.

District 5th year,

6-8, and

9-12 level ratios,- rather

than an overall black/total ratio, will be used for student reassignments.

All calculations will be based on

the end of first quarter membership;

Concerning Section J, Mrs. Hermes asked if language should be inserted to clarify which students would be transported to school at district expense under the new reassignment plan. She made a motion to amend Paragraph J to that effect, which was seconded by Dr. Muse. She later withdrew the amendment after discussion of the transfer policy, which already addressed transporation. On a related issue, Mrs. Donwerth asked for a recommendation or report concerning an exception to the district's policy on one-way transportation of kindergarten children for the displaced Burbank and Riverside students.

eighteen years residing in the geographical area of the district should be enrolled in the Oklahoma City Public Schools.

Exceptions include those stu-

dents who have completed four years of high school work, are in attendance

at some private or other school where other means of education are provided, or where the student has been excused or removed from attendance by reason of law.

Entrance ages to attend district schools shall be in compliance with state statutes.

The Board endorses the assignment by law of the responsi-

bility for causing student attendance to the parent or guardian, and the superintendent

will make

the compulsory attendance law known to students,

parents/guardians, and district employees. Students should be in school at all times except for recognized religious holidays, personal illness, bereavement, or family emergencies.

Students absent for reasons other than those previously mentioned will be counseled and/or alternative educational programs provided.

Grades should be awarded on the basis of the achievement of the student with the teacher taking into consideration extenuating circumstances.

classwork missed because of any excused absence.

A reasonable period of time will be provided to make up work missed.

If the work is made up, the student will be given proper credit.

Failure to

make up work within the allotted time period will result in the student

failing the work missed. Three unexcused tardies will be considered to count as one unexcused absence.

The superintendent shall develop procedures to implement this

policy and the requirements of state statutes and regulations. On roll call the votes were as follows: Ms. Brody, aye; Mr. Long, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye; Dr. Muse, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye. All aye. Mrs. Hermes declared the motion carried.

Mrs. Donwerth made the motion, seconded by Dr. Muse, for approval of Policy JEBB, Attendance/Activities (new policy), as follows:

ATTENDANCE/ACTIVITIES The Board believes educational programs are built on the foundation of continuity of instruction and participation in the classroom.

The Board

also believes consistent classroom attendance will assist students toward development of strong work habits, responsibility, and self-discipline.

In

order to encourage students to be in attendance in their regularly scheduled

classes, the Board will allow a maximum of ten days' absences from any one class period of each school year for school activities.

Excluded from this

number are: A.

Qualifying activities of the regional, state and national levels of school approved contests, i.e., high school regional wrestling

tournaments, regional history fair; B.

Field trips which are extensions of the classroom learning

experience, non-performing and non-competitive, i.e., science class field trip to the Omniplex, C.O.E. visiting a word processing center;

Mrs. Hill also said she had attended a parents' meeting where the policy was discussed in depth, and they had the following concerns: 1) April 15 would be too early to generate a calendar of all known activities with actual dates; 2) It was believed the requirement for principals to notify in writing staff, students, and parents of the proposed activity calendar for the ensuing year would be very expensive, and they suggested including it with the enrollment packet; 3) It was felt the notification of the fifth and tenth non-exempt activity would would be expensive and create more record keeping, and should just be posted at school. Mrs. Mason responded first that everywhere the word "principal" appeared in the policy, it was being translated into "activity director". She said in meetings with the activity directors they had concerns about the process, also, and it was recognized that the additional record keeping could be cumbersome. In terms of the calendar, she said the intent was to get people to pre-plan some of their activities, recognizing the calendar would have to be updated at the beginning of the school year. It was planned to have the calendar placed in the same envelope with the arena scheduling information, which is mailed in August. Regarding the notification of the fifth and tenth days, she said Data Processing was waiting for the policy to be finalized so that a program could be developed to provide the information more easily to principals. Mrs. Hermes mentioned she had received a suggestion from the Student Council Committee that the exempt and non-exempt activities be listed in the students' handbooks.

On roll call the votes were as follows: Ms. Brody, aye; Mr. Long, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye; Dr. Muse, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye. All aye. Mrs. Hermes declared the motion carried.

Dr. Wright informed the Board that contrary to the way Policy GCBB was printed in the agenda, the words "industrial arts" should be deleted from paragraph C, and that paragraph D should be left in. He explained that paragraph C spoke only to high schools; that paragraph D authorized the payment of the bonus to industrial arts teachers at both the middle school and high school level. Responding to questions regarding why the bonus was not paid to middle school math and science teachers, Mr. Moore explained it was because of the difference between elementary and secondary certification in those areas. Ms. Brody made the motion, seconded by Mrs. Hill, to approve Policy GCBB, Professional Staff Supplementary Pay Plan, as follows: PROFESSIONAL STAFF SUPPLEMENTARY PAY PLAN The Board believes that it has the responsibility to provide the best

teachers possible and recognizes that there is a shortage of certified

secondary teachers in mathematics, science, computer science, industrial ■art-s, vocational trade and industry , *

and vocational agriculture.

Therefore, the district will: A.

Pay a bonus of $100 per year to properly certified teachers for each hour of high school classroom instruction in mathematics, science, computer science, vocational trade and industry , *

and

vocational agriculture;

B.

Pay a bonus of $100 per year to properly certified teachers for each hour of secondary school classroom instruction in industrial arts;

C.

Pay a one-time bonus of $500 to teachers who are new to the district, assigned to high schools; properly certified in mathematics, science,

industrial arts, computer science, vocational trade and industry , * or vocational agriculture; and teaching three or more classroom hours per day in one or a combination of these areas.

D.

Pay a one-time bonus of $500 to teachers who are new to the district, assigned to secondary schools, properly certified in industrial arts, and assigned three or more classroom hours per

day of instruction.

The bonus will be divided into four equal payments and £&■ -be paid at the end of each quarter^

Teachers who are employed after the beginning of

any quarter shall receive a^ prorated bonus based on the number of days

worked in that quarter; thereafter, these teachers will receive twenty-five percent (25%) of the bonus at the end of each completed quarter of that work

year.

Teachers who terminate before the end of a quarter shall not be paid

the bonus for that quarter or for the remaining quarter in the work year. *Does not include interdisciplinary Cooperative Education or Industrial Cooperative Education.

Presentation of Painting Mrs. Hermes recognized Mr. Hugh Ginn, who stated he was acting as messenger for Board Member Hugh Long. Mr. Ginn stated that among Mr. Long's other attributes, he was an artist. Mr. Ginn unveiled an oil painting created by Mr. Long, and read the following letter signed by Mr. Long:

PRESENTATION OF PAINTING

"To Whom It May Concern: This painting was made in 1966 as a memorial to the late Jack Gibson, former principal of Wilson School. It was presented to the school at the January PTA meeting and hung in the hall of Wilson School for ten years, more or less. This picture was returned to my possession in 1976-77 and has been in my home since that time.

Mr. Darrel Shepard and his wife, Deanna Shepard, both good and true friends of mine, have admired this painting for some time. To show my appreciation for their friendship and gratitude for their extensive help to me since I have served on the Board of Education, I hereby present this painting to them. I suggest the painting be hung in Mr. Shepard's office at 900 North Klein until such time he chooses to move it to his home. It forever remains his property to dispense with as he chooses." Mr. Shepard thanked Mr. Ginn for the painting. 4.

Resignation of Hugh Long Mr. Ginn read the following letter addressed to Mrs. Susan Hermes, President, and other members of the Oklahoma City Board of Education, from Hugh Long, Member, Oklahoma City Board of Education:

RESIGNATION OF BOARD MEMBER HUGH R. LONG ANNOUNCED

"Due to my declining health and upon advice of my physician, I wish to tender my resignation as a member of the Board of Education, effective April 8, 1985. I have enjoyed very much serving with each you of as a member of the Board. I wish that it were possible to serve more time with you. I wish to express my gratitude to the Board, school patrons, school staff, and school children of Oklahoma City for allowing me to serve the past four years. Thanks to all." Sincerely,

Hugh R. Long Mr. Ginn suggested the Board take action on the resignation, and advised that a motion be made under New Business.

In reaction to the resignation, Board Members commented as follows:

Mrs. Hermes: "I just want to say that I really enjoyed Hugh all these years and I'm going to miss his lectures on PRI and the way it used to be. I'm sorry that he couldn't come tonight and give it in person. I know he's not well or he would have been here to give that in person."

COMMENTS MRS. HERMES

Ms. Brody: "Obviously, it's a shock to all of us. I've sat with Mr. Long for four years. It was not so much the lectures on how it used to be; I think it was the lectures on how he thought it should be in his dreams. We never doubted his concern for kids and how he felt about what you do for children. He had tremendous pride in this school system. Sitting next to him for^many years you found out about his humor, quietly. He didn't say a whole lot, but as you all noticed, when he did, we all paid attention

Resignation of Hugh Long (Cont'd)

COMMENTS MS. BRODY, CONT'D

because it was rooted in history and a sense of public education and how things should go for children. He was somewhat our conscience on a lot of issues. He also brought to this board a history that none of us had had. We were not building principals. He kept that always on our minds, of how it is in the buildings. I will miss him. I've valued him as a co-member and as a friend."

COMMENTS MRS. HILL

Mrs. Hill: "I, too, am really speechless. I hated to see his term come to an end because I, like Jean, have enjoyed sitting here beside him. I do know that sometimes during the Board meetings as we maybe got a little long or a little involved he would do a portrait or a small picture for some of us that that he would share with us. But I never dreamed he was really the artist. I do think he had a lot of expertise. He had a lot of history that he could fill us in on, and we're going to be missing that. I wish him well. I just wish he could have continued."

COMMENTS MRS. DONWERTH

Mrs. Donwerth; "As well as you think you know people, I didn't realize that Mr. Long was an artist, and I think it (the painting) is beautiful. I am going to miss him. I appreciate the contribution that he's made to the Board as a board member, (as well as) his contribution to education when he served the district as a principal. Mr. Long, I felt, lent some wisdom to us. I think that his experience helped when he would share it with us. I really always felt like Mr. Long, bottom Tine, was caring for the kids, and whether you agreed with him or disagreed with him, I think that was what it was all about as far as he was concerned. I think sometimes in our hustle and bustle we get away from that and get on little, unimportant details and he would kind of bring us back into proper perspective. I hope his health returns because we are going to miss him, and I, for one, considered him a good friend. Although he had his likes and his dislikes—and he didn't mind telling you about them—I think that he's probably one of the nicest, sweetest people that I have ever been associated with, and I'm going to miss him on the Board."

COMMENTS DR. HEATH

Dr. Heath: "To me, Mr. Long typifies a passing era of dedicated family members who are dedicated to excellence. He was a rare member of an elite group of Oklahomans who literally gave it all for kids."

Five persons addressed the Board as follows: 1.

Marilyn Wall, O.E.A. of Oklahoma City - Ms. Wall spoke concerning the teacher transfers resulting from the Student Assignment Plan. She said teachers were confused and frustrated, citing the previous week's incomplete vacancy list, constantly changing enrollment projections, unclear information about volunteers for transfer, and other as causes of the confusion.

2.

Eunice 0. Farbes, Teacher, Classen High School - Ms. Farbes said the teachers at Classen were concerned that they receive their school assignments for 1985-86 in time to have some input as to their teaching schedules.

Tammy K. Simons, Cryslur Almmni Association - Ms. Simons invited the Board and Superintendent to attend the Northwest Classen Cryslur Alumni Choral Concert, to be held Saturday, June 8, 1985 at 8 p.m. in the Northwest Classen Auditorium.

4.

Georgia Iannello, Oklahoma Federation of Teachers - Ms. Iannello also spoke concerning the problems teachers were encountering with the teacher transfer process. She asked that implementation of the Student Assignment Plan be delayed for at least a year.

5.

William Hixon, Teacher, John Marshall - Mr. Hixon had concern with the teacher transfers, particularly as they related to teacher seniority.

HEARINGS CONT'D

Dr. Wright responded to the questions and concerns on teacher transfers. He stated that the vacancy list referred to was a preliminary list, and did include some inaccuracies. He said the new packets with the new vacancy list would be distributed to the principals April 9 via school mail, and therefore should be available to teachers several days before the profiles were scheduled for return on April 16. Dr. Wright also discussed the teacher profiles, enrollment projections, consideration of seniority, and other. He said he believed that teachers would know where and what subject they would be teaching by the end of the current school year.

Ms. Brody stated that she was more concerned with the transfers being fair and orderly than with meeting deadlines. Mr. Vern Moore, Director of Personnel Services, responded that adjustments have been made in some of the timelines. Concerning the statement by Ms. Iannello that one ED class was recommended to be moved from Eugene Field to another site to reduce the load on the administrator, Ms. Brody said she hoped that was not the case. Dr. Wright recalled that during a recent staff meeting in which three representatives of the Principals' Association were present (the Eugene Field principal not included), the principals had asked the administrative staff to consider not overloading those particular classes at any one building. Dr. Wright said he would check into the matter further and report back to the Board on the Eugene Field situation specifically.

5.

1985 Affirmative Action Plan Dr. Wright called on Dr. Jack Isch, Special Assistant to the Superintendent, to discuss the plan and respond to questions from the Board. Dr. Isch presented Ms. Linda Johnson, Affirmative Action Program Manager, and Mr. Gene Naukam, Chairman of the Advisory Committee, to respond to detailed questions about the plan. Dr. Isch stated that the format of this year's plan was considerably different from that of past years. An effort was made to eliminate discrepancies or contradictory statements and to make the plan consistent with Board policy. He said the role of the Advisory Committee was to monitor the Affirmative Action program, and the staff was responsible for writing the program.

Ms. Johnson said staff wrote the plan using the Adivsory Committee's comments and recommendations. She said the committee would monitor the entire affirmative action plan, meeting quarterly to review the progress toward goal achievement. She pointed out changes in the appeals procedure and how building percentages would be computed.

1985 Affirmative Action Plan (Cont'd)

Ms. Brody asked how the relationship between the Equity Officer and the Affirmative Action Committee was viewed; if there would be an advantage in a working liaison. Mr. Naukam responded that it was his understanding the Equity Officer would deal with ensuring equal education for all students, and that was an area the Committee had not addressed other than the consideration of role models in the Affirmative Action guidelines.

PROPOSED 1985 AFFIRMATIVE ACTION PLAN CONT'D

Relative to Affirmative Action goals, Mr. Naukam reported that goals for individual buildings have been adjusted to reflect a 36.9% black teacher goal ± 10%. The application of this goal was viewed to be of vital importance in light of the student assignment plan which would create some racially identifiable elementary schools. He explained that current policy allowed for student teacher ratios to reflect student ratios. The purpose of the new recommendation was to get an even distribution of racially balanced staffs throughout the district by disregarding student ratios and looking only at teacher ratios in staffing. Mrs. Hill said she was concerned with the 10% variance; that she knew of schools several percentage points above or below the stated goal. Ms. Johnson responded that 39% ± 10% was the desired goal, and obtaining the goal depended to a great extent on the qualified applicants available. She said the district would not try to meet the goal by hiring applicants who were not properly qualified.

Mrs. Hermes said she was concerned with the 39.6% at the middle and high school levels. She wanted to know the rationale for the change because in the past, middle and high schools were staffed with black/other percentages that reflected the student population. Mr. Naukam explained that next year, with racially identifiable schools, we could end up with all-white or all-black staffs under the old guidelines. That was the reason the guideline is now 39.6% ± 10% district wide; all buildings without any variation based on student population. Mrs. Hill suggested that on page 15, under "Step 2" that the words "or designee" should appear after "The Superintendent" in the second paragraph. She also suggested that under "Step 3" that references to "the Board" should be written "the Board of Education" for clarification. She expressed concern that changes, additions or corrections from the previous year's plan were not highlighted. Dr. Heath requested that the Affirmative Action Committee's efforts be recognized with letters of commendation from the Board.

6.

Dr. Heath made the motion, seconded by Mrs. Donwerth, for approval of the 1985 Affirmative Action Plan. On roll call the votes were as follows: Ms. Brody, aye; Mrs. Hill, no; Mrs. Donwerth, aye; Dr. Heath, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye. Four aye and one no. Mrs. Hermes declared the motion carried.

COMMITTEE REPORT AUDITING FIRM SELECTION

Auditing Firm Selection Committee Report Mrs. Hill reported that she and the other committee member, Dr. Paul Heath, had met with Darrel Shepard, Business Services Director, to discuss the possible re-engagement of Hall, Walsh & Company and Price Waterhouse to perform audits of 1984-85 fiscal year activities. When contacted, both firms expressed a desire to continue performing audit services for the district. The committee felt the two firms had done very satisfactory work in years past, were well-acquainted with the district's system of accounting, and worked well with the district's staff. She noted that other auditing firms had asked to be considered, but several factors, including the time required to indoctrinate new auditors, the reorganization plan and other, caused the committee to feel this was not a good time, nor was it necessary, to change auditors.

Mrs. Hill pointed out that the fee proposed by Price Waterhouse was $2,000 less than last year's fee for the same service. The reduction was based on the firm's estimate that they did not need as much time to audit the Federal Funds as originally thought.

R. #143 APPROVAL OF AUDITING FIRMS FOR AUDITS OF 1984-85 FUNDS

Mrs. Hill moved approval, seconded by Dr. Heath, of continuation of agreements with auditing firms as follows:

A.

Continuation of an agreement with Price Waterhouse to audit General Fund, Building Fund, Bond Fund, and Federal (external) Funds for the 1984-85 fiscal year for a fee of $26,500.

Appropriated Funds External Funds

$25,500.00 1,000.00

TOTAL B.

$26,500.00

Continuation of an agreement with Hall, Walsh & Company to audit the Student Activity Funds and the Central Food Service Fund for the 1984-85 fiscal year for a fee of $24,600.

Student Activity Fund Central Food Service Fund

TOTAL

$16,400.00 8,200.00 $24,600.00

On roll call the votes were as follows: Ms. Brody, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye; Dr. Muse, aye; Dr. Heath, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye. All aye. Mrs. Hermes declared the motion carried.

HEARINGS Seven persons addressed the Board:

HEARINGS

Ms. Georgia Iannello, President, Oklahoma City Federation of Teachers, described problems some teachers were having with accepting reasons for being identified for transfer. She also reported a concern of Capitol Hill Middle School teachers and students that they had been informed they could not go to the Arts Festival on Friday, April 26 when other schools were going. Dr. Wright responded that he could provide for Ms. Iannello the following day the reasons for the transfers; and that the possible miscommunication concerning the Arts Festival would be investigated.

David Bridges, David Wimmer, Janet Wimmer, and Diana Lovel, parents and patrons of Andrew Johnson Elementary School, objected to the possible loss of two teachers for 1985-86 because of declining enrollment caused by the Student Assignment Plan; expressed confusion as to which projected enrollment figures for 85-86 were accurate; and voiced concern about the necessity for split grades (combined third and fourth) next year and concern that the mainstreamed handicapped students at the school continue to receive additional teacher assistance. Dr. Wright told the patrons that he would have the Research Department check the projected enollment figures again; that their concerns would be addressed; and that they would be contacted as soon as the information was available.

Ms. Juanita Mayfield Holley, Patron/Committee Member, Affirmative Action Committee, spoke concerning her frustration at having spent several months working on the Affirmative Action Plan and then being informed by administration that the committee's role was to monitor the plan rather than develop it. Mrs. Hermes stated she had been distressed to learn that a committee had been appointed and not given the proper charge. She asked that staff determine if the committee was to operate under district or state guidelines; make a recommendation for how the committee would function next year; and that letters of apology be written to the committee members. Dr. Wright said he could report to the Board on the matter by the June 3, 1985 regular board meeting, and that in the meantime it would appear under "Items Pending". (Ms. Mayfield's letter, which she read to the Board, is on file in the office of the Clerk.)

Mr. Robert Wall, Metro Church Northwest, expressed a desire to lease the Burbank School Building for use as a church, and submitted a proposal to the Board. LEGAL REPORT Mr. Ronald Day reported as follows:

Dowell v. Board of Education "Following the conclusion of the evidentiary hearing last week in the Dowell case, we proceeded with preparing proposed findings of fact and conclusions of law pursuant to Judge Bohanan's request. I'm pleased to advise you that this afternoon those proposed findings were delivered to the Judge's office. The next step in the case will be the decision, in writing, handed down by Judge Bohanan. I do not know when that might occur, but after that takes place the opposition will then have 30 days, if they so desire, to lodge an appeal to the Tenth Circuit (Court of Appeals) in Denver.

"I'd also like to state that attorneys do not have control over the facts or the law in any lawsuit. The successful results in the Dowell case were based ujjon the testimony and evidence presented by the Board of Education through'Board members and administrators with excellent demeanor and credibility. You very effectively informed the court of what was going on, showed that it was constitutional, and that is the primary reason you got the results you did."

Policy JC Mrs. Hill made the motion, seconded by Ms. Brody, for approval of Policy JC, Student School Assignment, with one change, as printed in the agenda, under "J".

R. #144 AMENDMENT TO MOTION FOR APPROVAL OF POLICY JC APPROVED

Mrs. Hill then amended the motion to approve policy JC, seconded by Ms. Brody, to change the wording in the second paragraph from "Annually, the superintendent shall monitor school enrollment and recommend student reassignment plans for Board approval" to "Annually by November 15 the Superintendent shall monitor school enrollment and send the report to the Board members and all school principals". Mrs. Hill said this change would make Policy JC consistent with the school closing policy, (Policy FL), because it was stated under "C" that school reassignments for reasons of racial balance would not be considered more than once in any three year period.

On roll call for the amendment, the votes were as follows: Ms. Brody, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye; Dr. Muse, aye; Dr. Heath, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye. All aye. Mrs. Hermes declared the motion carried.

assigned. Annually, by November 15, the superintendent shall monitor school

enrollment and recommend student reassignment p4ans fw- Board appro^a-l

Before

student reassignments are made, consideration will be given to existing space in buildings, portable and demountable use, and relocation of special programs.

When fifth year, middle school and high school reassignments are made for closed schools, to relieve overcrowding, or to avoid hazard, etc.,

the black/total ratio will be a primary factor in selecting the

receiving school for reassigned students. Guidelines for student reassignment, to maintain the required black/

total ratios in each school at the three upper levels are as follows: A.

All attendance areas will be included in computing the district black/total level ratios;

B.

District 5th year, 6-8, and 9-12 level ratios, rather than an

overall black/total ratio, will be used for student reassignments.

All calculations will be based on the end of

first quarter membership; 1.

Enrollment in the special programs listed below will not

be included in the black/total ratio of the schools in which the programs are located: a.

Bilingual Laboratories

b.

Trainable

c.

Physically Handicapped

third year will be brought into balance;

F.

Desegregation at the elementary level will occur to the

degree that neighborhoods around the school are integrated. Further, majority to minority transfers as described in

ROLL CALL

SPECIAL BUSINESS Mrs. Hermes announced the purpose of the Special Meeting was for recognition and presentation of awards to students and staff who had received state, national or international awards during the 1984-85 school year. She called on Superintendent Wright for the statement of the occasion. Dr. Wright's opening statement was as follows:

"It's my pleasure to welcome each and every person here to the Second Annual Recognition Awards Program by the Oklahoma City Public Schools, sponsored by your local school board. The Board, for a long time, has had a strong commitment to excellence in education in this school district. Last year, as their initial effort, we had an awards program and over 350 students were honored for various awards. We've toughened the standards for those awards this year, and it's my pleasure to look out on this crowd and number of students that are here today. It takes a lot of dedication on the part of each and every student here today to be honored for the kind of dilligence and commitment they've made to their studies and to the kinds of things that they've been receiving awards for in this state. It also takes an outstanding staff of teachers, and I want to commend each and every teacher here today for their leadership, for their help, for their guidance of students, to get them to achieve at the highest level possible. I also commend our administrators for encouraging this kind of excellence to occur in the Oklahoma City Public Schools.

"I get all kinds of input from all over the nation, and last week was no different when I heard from some friends in Kansas. Those friends were complimenting me on the conduct of some of our students that were competing at the Kansas relays, and also the total dedication and how they dominated the relays at Lawrence, Kansas. It happened to be the John Marshall Track Team, both boys and girls. We hear those things from across the nation, and it makes us feel good. I appreciate your efforts on the part of this district and on the part of your schools as you represent us." Following Dr. Wright's statement, music was provided by the Southeast High . School Stage Band, led by Band Director, Mr. James Baker.

Closing accolades by LaRue Donwerth, Board Vice President, were as foViuwsr

"It's exciting to be standing up here looking out over the auditorium at a room full of achievers, and it gives us a lot of confidence since you are our future that our future is in good shape. We appreciate each and every one of you and all the hard work that you've done. We're proud of our faculty members, too, but I'm going to address this primarily to our students. It's been said that the primary purpose of education is not necessarily to teach you to earn your bread, but to make every mouthful sweeter. We hope this occasion has made your achievements even sweeter for you. "On behalf of the Oklahoma City School Board, we appreciate being able to acknowledge and applaud your accomplishments today. Each of you have brought pride to your family, your friends, your schools, and your entire community through the state, national, and international awards that you've received. We commend you for the work and the sacrifices that you've made in order to achieve this success. There are many other students throughout Oklahoma City that have received district and regional awards, and they will be receiving recognition in their individual schools. "On behalf of the Oklahoma City Board of Education and the Administrative staff, we hope that this is only the beginning of many success stories for each of you. As you leave this building today, we hope that you will take with you our sincere congratulations. We're very proud of each of you."

SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT (Cont'd) 3.

Memoranda to the Board (Cont'd)

The issue of providing transportation for Riverside area kindergarten students who would be attending Eugene Field Elementary in 1985-86 was discussed. Dr. Wright pointed out that the kindergarten "round-up" produced only one pre-enrol lee. According to the memorandum from Sylvia Lonian, Director of Elementary Schools, Riverside kindergarten students have historically enrolled after Labor Day. Dr. Wright stated that one alternative for these children would be for them to take advantage of day care facilities at Eugene Field under a provision of Chapter XX. Mrs. Lonian believed that the Chapter XX funds would provide a 100% subsidy for day care for families residing in the Riverside area. Dr. Wright cautioned that providing transportation for the Riverside kindergarten students both to and from school would set a precedent in the district.

INFORMATION TO THE BOARD (Cont'd)

Mrs. Donwerth favored utilization of Chapter XX subsidies, and asked that kindergarten enrollment from the Riverside area be carefully monitored in the fall; that parents be made aware of the availability of day care under Chapter XX. She asked that the monitoring of the Riverside kindergarten enrollment at Eugene Field for 1985-86 be listed under Items Pending.

Dr. Wright said he could report to the Board by September 15 concerning enrollment figures and interest in and qualification for Chapter XX kindergarten/day care subsidies.

4.

Remarks Dr. Wright announced that Zachary Rhodes, a senior at Capitol Hill High School, had just been elected National President of DECA (Distributive Education Clubs of America).

REMARKS SUPERINTENDENT

Dr. Wright mentioned the bill being considered by the State Legislature, which included a $2,000 increase for teachers, appeared to have a good chance of passing. Dr. Wright also noted that the Board would be considering several Buildings & Construction items as a result of the last bond issue for roofs, classroom furniture, toilets and water pipes, paving, and a new track surface. He said these bond projects were worthy of mention because so many times they are not visible improvements, such as new roofs, but are projects that will directly benefit students and teachers of the district for many years to come.

Mrs. Hill asked if students like Zachary Rhodes who had not been included in the May 3 Awards Recognition Program could be recognized in some way. Dr. Wright responded that he would try to get the names of any students or teachers who were inadvertently left out of the May 3 program and those who receive awards between May 3 and approximately May 20, and have certificates prepared for them.

PERSONNEL REPORT Mrs. Donwerth made the motion, seconded by Dr. Heath, that the following persons be employed as of the effective date specified, and that contracts or assignment notifications with the appropriate persons herein listed be approved as executed in the name of the district by the superintendent or person by him designated; also, that other personnel recommendations, including terminations, leaves, retirements, resignations, and other information listed be approved. Mrs. Hermes acknolwedged the resignation of David Earle, Curriculum Department Program Administrator, and on behalf of the Board expressed regret at his leaving the^district.

On roll call the votes were as follows: Ms. Brody, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye; Dr. Heath, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye. Mrs. Hermes declared the motion carried.

SPECIAL BUSINESS LEVEL III GRIEVANCE HEARIN

Date cause of Grievance occurred:

March 12, 1985

Provision of Agreement alleged to be violated:

Article IV, Sections 1A and 2C2

Relief Sought: That grievants Sie Enyart and Martha Black be granted their Level II hearings for alleged violation, misinterpretation, and misapplication of provisions of the contract, and that a different impartial hearing officer be designated by the Superintendent for those hearings. Opening Statement by Appellant

Mr. DeGiusti presented his opening statement as follows: "On March 12, 1985 this union was prepared to represent teachers Martha Black and Sie Enyart, who had alleged a violation and/or misapplication of the Negotiated Agreement and subsequently filed grievances. Hearing Officer Savage scheduled the hearing for March 12, but no hearing was ever held. Instead, the Respondent's representative made the motion that the grievances be withdrawn and not heard. Hearing Officer Savage ruled favorably on that motion and dismissed the grievance. The Union was not allowed to present witnesses, testimony, exhibits or closing statements. Therefore, no hearing , was held and a violation of the Negotiated Agreement occurred.

"I would now like to repeat the Union's statement of grievance as part of my opening statement: 'At a March*'12 Level II Grievance Hearing, Hearing Officer Jim Savage refused to hear grievances of grievants Martha Black and Sie Enyart of Capitol Hill Middle School. His ruling was based on a motion by Administration's Representative Gloria Griffin that it was management's opinion that the contract had not been violated, and therefore the grievances should be withdrawn.

OPENING STATEMEN BY APPELLANT


248

MINUTES OF MEETING OF MAY 13, 1985

OPENING STATEMENT BY APPELLANT (Cont'd)

Opening Statement by Appellant (Cont'd) 'In ruling that there was no grievance, Hearing Officer Savage removed himself from the realm of impartial hearing judge, who is supposed to hear the arguments and evidence of both sides and then make a judgment, and placed himself into the area of choosing what is and what is not grievable, a responsibility which clearly falls to the teacher in Article IV, Section 1 of Grievance Procedure Definition. It is not up to the hearing officer to determine what a teacher can or cannot grieve. An alleged violation may or may not turn out to be an actual violation, but it is clearly the teacher's place to allege a violation. It is the hearing officer's duty to rule on the merits of the alleged violation after a hearing; not its suitability to go to a hearing. 'The contract clearly states that the Superintendent's designee shall schedule and hold a hearing, not schedule and then pass judgment on whether a grievance merits a hearing. A hearing officer can deny a grievance if, in his or her judgment the contract was not violated after weighing the testiomny, evidence and arguments put forth during a hearing. But a hearing officer cannot abrogate a teacher's right to allege a violation and a teacher's right to a hearing.'

"In the case we are prepared to present, we will show that: 1) Refusing to hear a grievance breaches an obligation clearly set out in the contract. This also has a corrosive effect on the labor/management relationship, creates uncertainty in the minds of employees as to their rights and protections, and either by design or effect undermines the position of the locally elected and certified representatives. 2) The position of the Oklahoma City Federation of Teachers is consistent with well-settled principles of employer/employee relations in the private and public sector of the American economy. 3) That it is not up to a hearing officer or management to screen grievances, but up to the union which represents the complainants. 4) The only just remedy to the current violation is to grant the relief sought by the Union and order the District to grant a fair and impartial hearing to Sie Enyart and Martha Black. "Finally, the contract imposes on the hearing panel an obligation closely paralleling that of an arbitrator. You're asked to build as complete a record as is necessary before rendering a decision, and you're restricted by the agreement to confine that decision to the facts as presented by the parties. You're not here as administrators, you're not here as anyone's colleagues, subordinates, or superiors. You are here to render a fair and impartial decision. I stress this point not because I question your fairness or objectivity, but because the case we are about to present and expect to prove deals with what a hearing is and who has the right to decide what is or what is not grievable. Your role as impartial hearing panel, as I stated, closely parallels that of an arbitrator. I have drawn heavily on the substantial number of arbitration cases common in statutory law and labor/management rleations writing to substantiate the Union's case in this grievance." OPENING STATEMENT BY RESPONDENT

Opening Statement by Respondent Mr. Savage stated he would act as his own representative. opening statement as follows:

He presented his

"In the statement of grievance just read by Mr. DeGiusti, he admitted that at a March 12 Level II Grievance Hearing that I refused to hear a grievance on the grievances filed by Martha Black and Sie Enyart. This line in itself is admission that a Level II Grievance Hearing was held. At that grievance hearing, all procedures specified in the contract were followed, and the decision rendered by me was perfectly in line with the contract language. I did not violate Article IV, Section 1A since the teachers involved did file a grievance that there had been alleged violation, misinterpretation, or misapplication of the contract. "The hearing was scheduled, a date and time was set within the timelines as agreed to by both parties. The grievants were present at the hearing, as were the rep^esentive of their choosing and witnesses. The hearing was

MINUTES OF MEETING OF MAY 13, 1985

Opening Statement by Respondent (Cont'd)

opened in the prescribed manner by me, and both sides were permitted to make opening statements. At the end of the respondent's opening statement, Mrs. Griffin, alleged that the contract had not been violated, and requested that the grievance be denied. I allowed Mr. DeGiusti an opportunity to respond to her motion and discussion was held for approximately one hour between Mr. DeGiusti and Mrs. Griffin regarding the motion that she had made. "Mrs. Griffin presented in her opening statement the fact, in the case of Martha Black, that the vacancy on the vacancy list that Martha Black had applied for and asked to be assigned to was still being carried on the current vacancy list at the date the hearing was being held. In the case of Mr. Enyart, she showed in her opening statement that the position he applied for was for the second semester only, and under the Negotiated Agreement the language clearly states that during the current year if a teacher applies for a transfer, the transfer becomes effective on the first day of the ensuing semester, which would be the first day of next year. "It's, quite obvious from the opening statements about the contract language and the vacancy still being carried on the vacancy list that nothing had happened to say that a (violation) had occurred at that time. I gave plenty of opportunity for Mr. DeGiusti to present any statement or exhibits that he cared to, and a recess was declared for about ten minutes while he discussed the process with one of the grievants. They came back into the room, and we finished the discussion.

"The contract in Article IV, Section 2C2, clearly states that the superintendent or the superintendent's designee shall act as a hearing officer and shall schedule and hold a hearing within five days of the appeal. It also states in Section 2C2a, that the superintendent or his designee shall be free to admit any testimony, evidence or exhibits being relevant or to exclude the same in order to build as complete a record as necessary before rendering a decision. Since it was clearly obvious that through the opening statements that Mrs. Griffin had made and the exhibits she presented at that time that nothing had happened to cause a grievance, and the preponderance of evidence indicated that, I ruled that the grievances should be withdrawn and the hearing not be continued. "After that hearing, I wrote a decision in each case (Ms. Black, Mr. Enyart), and presented them to the grievants, to the union. The process says if you're dissatisfied with the decision made at Level II, you may appeal within five days to Level III. They did not do this. They filed a grievance that I had violated the contract as stated in the article cited in the Level III before you today. I will have evidence and testimony to show during this hearing that this procedure has been done in the past; hearings at Level II have not always gone to completion. Sometimes at opening statement, sometimes during testimony, the evidence has been so great that it was obvious the grievance could be settled at that point by mutual agreement; or that the evidence, as in the case of the one I heard after the opening statement, that it was quite obvious that nothing had happened so the grievances were dismissed and the hearing discontinued at that point.

"I think it may be a question of semantics on the motions that are made in a case like that, and probably some language should be developed to saythat you are not going to continue the hearing any further based on the evidence that has been presented so far; or by mutual agreement the parties had reached a settlement so that it was not necessary to continue the hearing. There is nothing in the Negotiated Agreement that says what a hearing is to consist of. It is a procedure that was worked out by mutual agreement many years ago, but it is not part of the contract. Today, we are here to decide if the contract was violated as to Article IV, Section 1A on allowing a teacher to file a grievance, and whether or not the hearing officer at Level II did schedule and hold a hearing. Following the opening statements, Mrs. Hermes asked for clarification on the grievance to be heard. There was discussion between various Board members, the Superintendent, and Mr. Savage and Mr. DeGiusti concerning the Martha Black and Sie Enyart grievances*", the origin of the Union's grievance, and whether the Board would hear the Union's Level III grievance. After discussion, Mrs. Hermes declared the grievance would be heard.

During direct questioning, cross-examination, and redirect, witnesses' testimony concerned what took place at the March 12 Level II hearing of Martha Black and Sie Enyart; the appellants' opportunities during the Level II hearing to confer with their representative; the opportunity for discussion between Mrs. Griffin and Mr. DeGiusti following Mrs. Griffin's motion that the grievances be withdrawn and not heard; examples of previous grievances which, by mutual agreement, had not gone to conclusion during a hearing; the fact that evidence, testimony, and closing statements were not allowed at the Black/Enyart Level II hearing; what constituted a "hearing"; the responsibility and powers of the hearing officer; presentation of the Union's exhibits (including "expert" definitions of hearings and precedents established through previous arbitration cases); and other. Presentation of Witnesses for Respondent Mr. Savage called Gloria Griffin and Vern Moore as witnesses. Mrs. Griffin and Mr. Moore responded to questions during direct questioning, cross-examination and redirect concerning the procedure Mr. Savage had used to open and conduct the Black/Enyart Level II Hearing; the reasons for the motions that the Black/Enyart grievances be withdrawn and not heard; the teachers right to allege a contract violation; the procedure for appealing a written level II decision; whether the appellants' representative had been allowed to present evidence, testimony, or a closing statement, and other.

Mr. DeGiusti's and Mr. Savage's (edited) closing statements were as follows: CLOSING STATEMENT BY APPELLANT

Closing Statement by Appellant

"The evidence presented here is incontrovertable and overwhelming. We have shown beyond a doubt what a hearing is supposed to be as established by law experts, and even district policy. We have shown that no such hearing was held. What was held cannot be considered a hearing in the wildest imagination. We have shown that Sie Enyart and Martha Black felt aggrieved. They alleged a violation and misapplication of the contract. Therefore, they filed a grievance. It was their decision to allege and file a grievance, not the hearing officer's nor management's.

"According to our contract, they have a right to a hearing. The Superintendent's designee shall schedule and hold a hearing. This question cuts to the very heart of the grievance procedure; even to due process. Does management have the right to dismiss and discount an alleged grievance before a hearing or after a hearing has started? We think not. Does management get to pick and choose which alleged grievances they will hear? We think not. Does management have the right to take away a teacher's right to a hearing? We think not. "The motion that was made by management that day was not that the grievance be denied, but that it be withdrawn and not heard. Listen to Union Exhibit Number 1 or look at Union Exhibits Numbers 4 and 5. It's spelled out right there that the grievances be withdrawn and not heard. This was the motion that was ruled on by the hearing officer. Not that it be denied—if that had been the motion he would have written in his disposition, 'Grievance denied'. That's why we didn't take that to Level III; because we never got a decision on it. It was still a live grievance at Level II, but we had to file this grievance in order to determine what a "hearing" is.

i

"If a grievance is ever dismissable before a hearing, it would be on grounds of untimlieness. But it's the responsibility of the parties involved to present cases, not to wriggle out of a grievance; to make motions to dismiss. The vast reserve of material on labor/management relations on labor law, on case law, in policy, and in expert writings, are on our side in this matter. When grievances are alleged, they must be heard.

MINUTES OF MEETING OF MAY 13, 1985

Closing Statement by Appellant (Cont'd) "We've heard a lot today about grievances that have been stopped before they've gotten to the closing argument. That's true. I did one last year in May at Classen High School with June McKittrick in Level II where management said, 'Okay, King’s X, you're right. She shouldn’t be transferred. Can we get out of this mess?' I said yes, and they said yes. That was mutual agreement. But what happened here was unilateral agreement, unilateral ruling. My teachers weren't allowed to testify on their own behalf. I wasn't allowed to present evidence or exhibits and I wasn't allowed to give a closing statement, like I'm doing right now.

CLOSING STATEMENT BY APPELLANT (Cont'd)

"We've heard a lot about the hearing officer's right to admit or exclude testimony. To me, that's the most ludicrous of all the assertions by management here today. Are they really telling us that a hearing officer has a right to not admit any testimony before he even hears it? Or to not admit any evidence before he even sees it? Or not to have the benefit of a closing statement to help make his ruling? What that means, members of the Hearing Panel, is that during a hearing if I present some evidence and the hearing officer after seeing it says, 'No, Tony, I'm sorry. I don't think this evidence is relevant; I'm not going to allow it to be admitted.' It doesn't mean he has carte blanche or broad powers to say, 'I'm not going to see anything of what you've got'.

"In closing, a grievance is like a fine wine. To paraphrase the advertisement, you should dismiss no grievance before its time. This grievance didn't even have a time; didn't have time to be considered seriously—there was no hearing. The time to rule on the merits of a grievance is after the open and sometimes brutal light of a hearing, and not before." Closing Statement by Respondent

"In closing, I would like to state that we're here because the Union has alleged that the contract was violated in two areas as stated in their citation in the Statement of Grievance. (Their) number one citation was the definition of a grievance. I see no place where I violated that. The grievants did file a grievance. Each one filed a separate statement of grievance. They've alleged that there was a violation of Article IV, Section 2C, and that I did not schedule and hold a hearing. I did schedule (and) hold a hearing, as testified by witnesses that I called to the witness stand. I opened (the hearing) in the proper manner. Each side was allowed to present opening statements.

"In the respondent's opening statement, the preponderance of evidence was sufficient enough that it was clear to everyone present that an action had not occurred that the grievant had alleged had occurred. It was clear-cut. The grievant wanted to be placed in a position, which is in effect saying, 'I want that job'. The job was still open.Applications were still being taken for it at the time we were having the hearing. That was the basis for my ruling in that case. In the other case, I was simply following the contract language that was negotiated last summer that states that a teacher may apply for a transfer during the current year. In order to keep from disrupting the school from where they're located at the present time, we stated that the transfer would be effective the first day of the ensuing semester. The vacancy list clearly stated that the vacancy was for second semester only, and we were in the second semester. The grievant was not eligible. It was clear to me in making a decision at that point that there was no contract violation. I gave the grievant's representative ample time to respond to the motion made, and over his objections I made a ruling. Much was made about not going through a hearing. "The Negotiated Agreement provides for settlement of a grievance through an informal process. If a grievant feels that there has been an alleged •violation of the Negotiated Agreement, they have at Level I a chance to resolve' it through an informal process. In the past eight years that I've been doing Level II hearings, a lot of times they'll come to me and say that they think they're going to file a Level II and say 'let's talk about it'. We talk about it^we never get there. There have been Level II grievances filed where hearings have never been held.

CLOSING STATEMENT BY RESPONDENT (Cont'd)

Closing Statement by Respondent - Cont'd

"All the contract does say is that when a Level II is filed, the superintendent or his designee will schedule and hold a hearing within five days. That's not always done. Sometimes they're returned as not being valid. The Board has even returned them at Level III because they were not valid grievances at the time, or not timely filed. Hearings are usually held and granted in a lot of cases that go completely through the process. This process, as I stated earlier in the testimony, was not part of the Board policy manual or a regulation at the time this hearing was held. That regulation only applies at Level II for complaint hearings. "The statement was also made that in spite of the fact they say the grievance was not denied, it was just not heard, when it was withdrawn because it had no merit, it became a denial at that point. When the grievants received that written report of the hearing, they had a process to follow at that time, and especially if they did not feel they had a fair hearing. They could go to Level III and allege that they didn't have a proper hearing. They did not do that, and I feel they passed up the opportunity to process their grievance further if they felt the ruling I made at Level II was unjust for any reason.

"We look at the Level III procedure as a whole, and we term 'broad powers' as being used in what has been granted to the hearing officer at a Level II hearing, but I think that paragraph is very clear and speaks for itself. I feel the ruling made at the Level II hearing in the case of Martha Black and Sie Enyart on March 12, 1985 was justified in each case, and I ask that you uphold the decision made by the hearing officer at Level II on the grievance we're hearing today." Motion, Deliberation and Vote by the Board

R. #174 RELIEF SOUGHT DENIED

Mrs. Hill made a motion as follows:

"I move that the decision rendered at Level II by the hearing officer be upheld because I do not feel that Article IV, Section 1A and Section 2C2 have been violated." The motion was seconded by Mrs. Donwerth.

There was discussion between Ms. Brody and Mr. Savage regarding the meaning of the terms "withdrawal" and "denial". Ms. Brody was concerned that both the union and administration should agree to the defintion of the terms so that appeals could be made, if necessary. Mrs. Hermes stated she believed it was appropriate for the hearing officer to dismiss grievances, but that the information (evidence, testimony, etc.) must first be processed. She said dismissing a grievance without that information would not allow for any legal recourse to the next level, in effect, denying due process. However, by denying a grievance after testimony, an appeal could be made to the next level. She said it seemed to her the Black/Enyart grievance should be re-heard at Level II.

On roll call the votes were as follows: Ms. Brody, no; Mrs. Thomas, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye; Mrs. Hermes, no. Three aye and two no. Mrs. Hermes declared the motion carried. The decision of the hearing officer at Level II was upheld.

LEVEL III GRIEVANCE HEARING

The following persons participated in the Level III Grievance Hearing for Verneda Starr: 1. 2. 3. 4.

Verneda Starr, Grievant, Teacher, Roosevelt Middle School Suzette Batson, Appellant's (O.F.T.) Representative James Savage, Employee Relations Administrator, Respondent Steve Brown, Principal, Roosevelt Middle School, Witness

Date cause of grievance occurred:

LEVEL III GRIEVANCE HEARIN( VERNEDA STARR

March 14, 1985

Provision of Agreement allegedly violated:

Article VIII, Section IE.

Relief Sought: That the written reprimand and Significant Event Report be removed from the teacher's file and destroyed, and that steps in Article VIII, Section IE be followed. Opening Statement by Appellant

Ms. Batson's opening statement was as follows: "On March 8, 1985 a sixth grade student, James Barron, was absent from his classes. Mrs. Verneda Starr, his teacher, inadvertently failed to report his absence. She marked him absent in her record book, but failed to send the information to the office. Fearing reprisal from the building administrator, Mrs. Starr solicited help from co-workers. She was advised to cover up her mistake. This advice only compounded the problem.

"Out of fear, Mrs. Starr made a mistake. She's only human. The Union agrees that she should have been disciplined for her actions, but an oral reprimand would have been sufficient. Instead, she received a letter of reprimand and a Significant Event Report. This places Mrs. Starr in double jeopardy. We plan to show that the steps normally followed in disciplining a teacher should have been followed in this case, and were not."

OPENING STATEMEN1 BY APPELLANT


261

MINUTES OF MEETING OF MAY 20, 1985

OPENING STATEMENT BY RESPONDENT

Opening Statement by Respondent

Mr. Savage presented his opening statement as follows:

"Steve Brown, Principal at Roosevelt Middle School, issued a Significant Event Report and a written reprimand to the grievant for wrongfully reporting a student's absence, resulting in a violation of Board Policies and Regulations, State Law, and the Roosevelt building guidelines for attendance reporting. "The grievant filed a grievance alleging that a written reprimand was a violation of Article VIII, Section 1, Paragraph E of the Negotiated Agreement regarding teacher discipline. Paragraph E states steps normally to be followed in disciplining a teacher. Number 5 of Paragraph E also states that the disciplinary action for a serious offense may be initiated at any step, indicating, depending on the seriousness of the offense, that you may bypass one step and go to the next.

"The teacher did not allege that the reprimand itself was unjust, but has alleged that the steps were not followed as set forth in the Negotiated Agreement. The testimony today will show that the principal, as a responsible administrator, felt that the teacher's actions were serious enough to warrant at least a written reprimand. According to the Negotiated Agreement, he has the right to initiate the disciplinary action at any step as set forth in Paragraph E of Section 1, Article 8 of the Negotiated Agreement."

WITNESSES' TESTIMONY

Presentation of Witnesses for Appellant Ms. Batson called Mr. Steve Brown, Roosevelt Middle School Principal, as the appellant's first witness. Mr. Brown testified how he learned of the student's absence not being reported; his subsequent investigation and conference with Mrs. Starr; the school's attendance reporting procedures; Mrs. Starr's one previous disciplinary action for being late for work; and the misunderstanding between Mrs. Starr and the student's mother about keeping the student home on March 8. Under cross-examination, Mr. Brown responded to questions concerning Mrs. Starr's response to the Significant Event Report; the seriousness of not reporting absences; and a faculty meeting held February 19, 1985 at which the importance of correct attendance reporting was discussed.

Ms. Batson then questioned Mrs. Starr about the incident. Mrs. Starr testified she had had a problem with the student's behavior on March 7 which resulted in a telephone call to the student's mother; denied that she instructed the student's mother to keep her son at Home on March 8; and gave reasons for trying to "cover up" her error. She also testified about her conference with Mr. Brown concerning the incident; her refusal to sign the Significant Event Report; and the administrative directive issued to her by Principal Brown. Mrs. Starr's testimony under cross-examination concerned the progressive steps in the Assertive Discipline plan; her fear of repisal for making mistakes; and the fact that when approached by Mrs. Starr, the student's other teachers refused to not mark the student absent.

Presentation of Witnesses for Respondent

Mr. Brown was called as the only witness for the respondent. The witness testified he felt the actions of the grievant were serious and unprofessional, and warranted his bypassing an oral reprimand and giving the teacher a written reprimand, per authority granted him in the Negotiated Agreement. Testimony during cross-examination concerned Mr. Brown's investigation of the incident, and why both a Significant Event Report and an administrative directive were given to Mrs. Starr.

MINUTES OF MEETING OF MAY 20, 1985

W-85-110

Closing Statement by Appellant In her closing argument, Ms. Batson stated that Mrs. Starr did make an error in judgment, but contended no irreparable damage had been done. She stated the administrative directive which explained the proper procedures for reporting attendance should have been sufficient; that the Significant Event Report was too severe a punishment for a relatively inexperienced teacher.

Closing Statement by Respondent Mr. Savage stated that Mrs. Starr, as a fourth year teacher, reported attendance every day and knew the procedure for doing so. He said the "cover up" of the mistake was admission that something improper was being done deliberately. He said despite this being a first offense, the principal was justified in issuing this particular disciplinary action because of the seriousness of the offense; that the Negotiated Agreement gave the principal the authority to issue the teacher a written reprimand in lieu of an oral reprimand.

HEARINGS

HEARINGS

Five persons addressed the Board as follows: 1.

Ms. Janie Moseley, Promotion Manager for KOCO-TV, requested the use of Horace Mann, Hawthorne, Creston Hills, Page-Woodson, Riverside, Bodine, Southern Hills, Coolidge, Stonegate, Harrison, and Longfellow Schools as bus pickup points for their summer program. She explained that the station was working with White Water, Masstrans, the American Red Cross and McDonalds to provide summer activities for "latch key kids" aged ten to sixteen for the four Mondays in June. She said Masstrans had planned a special route to pick up children at these schools, take them to White Water for the day, then return them to their neighborhoods. The Board discussed the District's liability with the attorney, and asked several questions of Ms. Moseley concerning the program. Ms. Moseley noted if the program was successful, it would be continued for the rest of the summer. Mrs. Donwerth made an emergency motion, seconded by Mrs. Hill, to grant permission for KOCO-TV to designate 11 Oklahoma City Public Schools (Horace Mann, Hawthorne, Creston Hills, Page-Woodson, Riverside, Bodine, Southern Hills, Coolidge, Stonegate, Harrison, Longfellow) as bus pickup points for a summer program for "latch key kids" (entitled, "Monday Magic") each Monday during the month of June, 1985.

R. #193 KOCO-TV GRANTED APPROVAL TO USE 11 SCHOOLS AS BUS PICKUP AREAS FOR SUMMER PGM.

On roll call the votes were as follows: Ms. Brody, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye; Dr. Heath, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye. All aye. Mrs. Hermes declared the motion carried. 2.

3.

Mr. Chuck Keeler, Art Teacher, Classen High School, reacted to comments made at a previous Board meeting concerning teacher complaints about the Student Assignment Plan relating to the district's image. He spoke of his experiences at Classen High School from 1970 to the present, describing his relationships with various student groups and his efforts to develop the Art Department and library into some of the best in the district. ’fc. Mr. Tony DeGiusti, Oklahoma Federation of Teachers, spoke concerning a security drill held at Grant High School that day, which he believed placed students in a potentially dangerous place, and in numbers too large for the area.


268

MINUTES OF MEETING OF MAY 20, 1985

HEARINGS (Cont'd) Dr. Wallace Smith, Assistant Superintendent, Business Services, responded to Mr. DeGiusti, stating he had spoken with the Principal and with Mr. J. J. Stewart from U. S. Civil Defense. Mr. Stewart told him the area under the stage would be a safe place for students to escape flying glass in the event of a tornado. Dr. Smith stated he did not know about the number of students and staff recommended to be in the area at one time.

HEARINGS (Cont'd)

Dr. Wright assured the Board an investigation would be conducted and a report made to the Board by the next regular meeting. 4.

Ann Turner, Media Specialist, U. S. Grant High School, expressed concern over staffing at Grant for the 85-86 school year. From pre-enrolIment figures, she believed there would be a need for at least eight more teachers than were presently allocated. Dr. Wright responded that the figures would be re-checked for accuracy.

5.

Georgia Iannello, President, Oklahoma Federation of Teachers, spoke to Board Regulation BDE-R3, Procedure for Conducting Level II Hearing. She said the Union disagreed with the changes to the regulation which allowed the hearing officer to determine the number of observers at a hearing; that the numbers at a hearing need to be limited. She stated the grievance procedure was a negotiable item. Dr. Wright said his instructions to the hearing officer were to conduct proper hearings, maintaining control at all times, and to not tolerate any kinds of interruptions that might be disruptive to the hearing. He said hearings take on many of the same characteristics of a courtroom, which are usually open to observers, but that the hearing officer should have the authority to regulate the numbers present in order to maintain control.

LEGAL REPORT

Mr. Ron Day reported on Dowell v. Board of Education as follows: "On May 6 the petitioners in the Dowell case filed a motion asking Judge Bohanan to either alter or amend his written order handed down April 15, 1985 which upheld the constitutionality of the Board's reassignment plan. Under local court rules, the Board has 15 days from the date that motion was filed, or until May 22, to file a written response. I am working on that response at this time and it will be filed on or before the 22nd of May. After the response is filed, Judge Bohanan will have to make a decision one way or the other. I cannot judge when Judge Bohanan is liable to hand down a decision on that motion. However, whichever way it goes, any aggrieved party willl have 30 days from the date his decision is handed down to appeal his decision to the Tenth Circuit Court in Denver."

ATTORNEY'S REPORT

SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT 1.

Staff Report - 1985-86 Kindergarten Screening Ms. Christina Kiser, Coordinator, Curriculum Services, reported on recommendations for revisions in the kindergarten screening process for 1985-86. She reported that annual surveys of kindergarten teachers have revealed some specific, consistent, concerns with the three screening instruments currently used, the Visual Motor Integration Test (VMI), the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test Form A (PPVT), and the Motor Activity Scale (MAS). She recommended that beginning with the 1985-86 school year the district change from the three separate instruments to a more comprehensive screening instrument call the Brigance.

Ms. Kiser said using the Brigance, the Draw-A-Person Test, and a district designed speech test would reduce the time of screening, allow a full three weeks for teachers to get children established in classroom routine, and eliminate a second, informal screening that kindergarten teachers have to do the second week in October in preparation for the first nine weeks' report

card. She said using the Brigance as the main instrument in conjunction with the Draw-A-Person and speech instrument would provide more appropriate information to kindergarten teachers for determining the instructional needs of the students, establishing the educational program most appropriate for that class, and for grouping for appropriate instruction. Ms. Kiser said there was enough money left in the 1984-85 kindergarten screening fund to purchase about half the kits needed; the 1985-86 budget, which she assumed would be approved without any increase over 84-85, would provide funds for the remaining half.

R. #193-A KINDERGARTEN SCREENING REPORT ACCEPTED; APPROVAL TO PROCEED FOR 1985-86

R 94 AUTHORIZATION TO APPLY FOR GRANTS

Following the report, Ms. Kiser responded to questions from Board members concerning access by kindergarten students to counseling, physical education, and speech pathologists. She said volunteers would be sought to help administer the tests. Mrs. Hill made the motion, seconded by Ms. Brody, to accept the report and grant approval to proceed for the 1985-86 school year with the revisions to the screening process as stated in the report. On roll call the votes were as follows: Ms. Brody, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye; Dr. Heath, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye. All aye. Mrs. Hermes declared the motion carried.

Electrical Modification/Clock System Improvement Mrs. Hermes announced a hearing request by Mr. E. Bud Griffy, III, of Oklahoma Electrical Supply. Mr. Griffy addressed the Board concerning the recommendation to award the contract for electrical modification and clock system improvement/replacements to Dane & Associates.

Mr. Griffy stated that his company's base bid of $199,085 was higher than the $184,846 quoted by Dane & Associates; however, combined with his bid of $99,497 for Alternate No. 2 (add alternate for Page-Woodson School), the total amount of his bid package was $298,582, which was $6,114 less than Dane & Associates' total bid package in the amount of $304,696. He asked the Board to consider awarding the contract to Oklahoma Electrical Supply. During discussion, Mr. Dick Samples confirmed that the bid submitted by Oklahoma Electrical Supply had been accompanied by the proper bid bond. He explained that traditionally the District had awarded contracts on the basis of low base bid, and a statement to that effect was usually included in the specifications; however, that statement was inadvertently left out of the specifications for this bid. Following additional discussion, Dr. Wright stated he and Mr. Day recommended the Board invoke the change and award the contract to Oklahoma Electrical Supply. Mrs. Donwerth made the motion, seconded by Ms. Brody, that the Board accept the base bid in the amount of $199,085 plus alternate number 2 in the amount of $99,497 and the awarding of a contract to Oklahoma Electrical Supply Company for the following:

LEVEL III COMPLAINT HEARINC BARBARA PARKER

April 17, 1985

Provision of Policy or Regulation Alleged Violated: GCD/GDD-R1, G

GCD/GDD-R1, V and

Relief Sought: That Complainant Barbara Parker be offered the job of Staff Development Coordinator. Opening Statement by Appellant Mr. DeGiusti made his opening statement as follows:

"Early Jn 1985, the job of Staff Development Coordinator was first posted. Applications were taken, applicants were screened and interviewed by committee, according to Board Policy. That selection committee then recommended two qualified finalists for the position, Cheryl Steele and Barbara Parker. <At the March 18 Board Meeting, the Board approved the appointment of Cheryl Steele to the position by a vote of four to one. However, Ms. Steele turned the job down, leaving one other qualified applicant and finalist, Barbara Parker.

OPENING STATEMENT BY APPELLANT


282

MINUTES OF MEETING OF MAY 28, 1985

OPENING STATEMENT BY APPELLANT (Cont'd)

"At this point, according to Board Policy GCD/GDD-R1, V, Barbara Parker should have been offered the position or the position should have been readvertised. The relevant section of GCD/GDD-R1, V, states: 'Thus, if the candidate selected for the position chooses not to accept the position, or the School Board chooses not to employ, or the successful candidate terminates within a year of appointment, the responsible administrator may make a recommendation for appointment of another individual from among the finalists originally interviewed for the position. The responsible administrator, in consultation with the Director of Personnel Services, will decide whether to make an offer to one of the other finalists or readvertise the position for new applicants.' "We will show that Barbara Parker was not offered the position, nor was the position readvertised. Instead, what then happened was that a person who was on leave of absence was contacted, told about the job, then given the job, thus bypassing Barbara Parker and Policy GCD/GDD-R1, V. In addition, candidate Parker was not notified of the Board's March 18 action as is clearly spelled out in Board Policy GCD/GDD-R1, G. This is the second violation of policy. "Hearing Officer Nunn's decision on the Level II Hearing is based on irrelevant sections of Board Policy, which never even came up in the Level II hearing, and is replete with errors. For example, he states that 'the complainant questioned why she was not notified about the appointment of Villa Rae Carter to the position'. One of, the complainant's complaints is that she was not notified of Cheryl Steeles appointment and subsequent refusal to take the job, not Villa Rae Carter's. "The Union, which represents Ms. Parker, questions the propriety of the hearing officer's Level II decision since policies not even mentioned in the Level II hearing were cited. Thus, the hearing officer's decision was not a ruling on the policies in question and on the facts presented, but rather on policies which he searched for independently in order to justify his decision. The specific policies which he cites which are not relevant are . GCD/GDD-R1, E, and GCI/GDE-R2. Therefore, the hearing officer's decision is faulty and impeachable."

OPENING STATEMENT BY RESPONDENT

Opening Statement by Respondent Mr. Nunn made his opening statement as follows: "The complainant feels the office of the Director of Personnel Services did not carry out the responsibility of notifying the selected candidate and those candidates not recommended for the position of Program Administrator for Staff Development & Training. We will show that the office of the Director of Personnel Services followed the Board policies as allowed. The complainant also feels that the Board policy was breached when the selected candidate chose not to accept the position, and Barbara Parker, indeed the only finalist, was not selected.

"We will show that the Board policy has a commmitment to those employees on leave and requesting to return; that the Board will give priority consideration to those employees with the required skills and qualifications for commensurate level administrative positions that are vacant. The reinstatement of an employee may be approved during the period of the leave if the services of the employee are needed. "We will further show that when the Superintendent's recommendation is for other than the top ranked candidate, he will inform the responsible administrator prior to the Board Meeting of the recommendation and the reason for it. In no case will the administrator or members of the committee notify the candidate of the results of the selection process. "The Union has tried at Level II to make members of the selection committee testify to the selection process. So far, this policy of confidentiality has been preserved. Confidentiality is important for the protection of all candidates, including the complainant."


283

MINUTES OF MEETING OF MAY 28, 1985

Presentation of Witnesses for Appellant Dr. DeGiusti called as witnesses Saundra Vallejo, Barbara Parker, Vern Moore, and Janies Stephens.

PRESENTATION OF WITNESSES FOR APPELLANT

Ms. Parker testified that she was not notified when the Board selected Cheryl Steele at the March 18, 1985 Board Meeting and of Ms. Steele's subsequent refusal to take the job; that she received a letter on March 19 from Personnel that the job was still open; and that she did not learn the other finalist had turned down the job until the April 8 Board Meeting when Villa Rae Carter was assigned to the position. She stated it was her understanding that if the first finalist refused the job, she would then be offered the job as the only other finalist. She said at the March 18 Board Meeting the filling of the position was declared an emergency by the Board, which prevented it from being re-posted. Ms. Parker testified under cross-examination that she had not received any information between March 18 and April 8 that would lead her to believe she was not still a viable candidate.

Mr. Moore testified concerning why the position was not readvertised; the decision to consider Villa Rae Carter a candidate for the position upon her request to return from leave of absence; communication with Ms. Carter concerning the position; term of a leave of absence, and other. Mr. Stephens responded to questions concerning Ms. Carter's leave of absence; how Ms. Carter's reinstatement would have been handled after July 1, and about how Ms. Carter learned the position was vacant. Presentation of Witnesses for Respondent Called as witnesses for the Respondent were James Stephens, Barbara Parker, and Vern Moore.

PRESENTATION OF WITNESSES FOR RESPONDENT

Testimony brought out that Ms. Parker had received notification following Mrs. Carter's appointment on April 8; and clarification of why there had been so much time pass between the March 18 meeting when Cheryl Steele was offered and refused the position, and April 8 when Villa Rae Carter was appointed. (A recess was declared by Mrs. Hermes at 11:20 a.m. 11:25 a.m.)

The Board reconvened at

Closing Statement by Appellant

Mr. DeGiusti stated that administration bypassed Policy GCD/GDD-R1, V, which states that a decision will be made to offer a position to one of the other finalists or readvertise the position for new applicants, and went to another part of policy which dealt with leaves of absence in order to offer the job to Mrs. Carter. He emphasized that according to Board policy employees may be reinstated during the time of leave if the employee's services are needed, but that Mrs. Carter did not request reinstatement until the beginning of the 1985-86 school year; that she would have been given an appropriate position at that time. Closing Statement by Respondent In his closing, Mr. Nunn pointed out that priority consideration is given to employees on leave who request reinstatement to a position commensurate with the position they vacated. He stated Barbara Parker had not been notifed of Cheryl Steele's refusal of the job after March 18 because Ms. Parker had not been discarded as a viable candidate; that Mrs. Carter, as a qualified candidate requesting reinstatement from leave of absence, had been considered for the position along with Ms. Parker.

Date cause of complaint occurred:

March 4, 1985

Provision of the Agreement Alleged Violated: 1) Article VIII, Section I.B., E.I., E.2; Section 2.B., c, e.; 2) Article VI, Section 8.G., K; 3) Article VII, Section l.C. Relief Sought: 1) All copies of the parent complaint, related written statements, and copies of the written reprimand in possession of Principal Elkins or the District be destroyed in the presence of Coach Kelley and/or his selected representative. 2) Principal Elkins provide a clear written statement to include the following (list on file in the office of the Clerk); 3) Principal Elkins will provide, in written form, an explanation of building procedures for "breaking up fights" and teacher use of physical force. OPENING STATEMENT BY APPELLANT

Opening Statement by Appellant

Mr. Huff made his opening statement as follows: "The apparent complaint was filed by a Mr. Elvie Ellis, parent of a Northeast High School basketball player, Parish McKaughman. The complaint was dated February 21 (1985). The complaint and allegations were made known to Mr. Kelley. The complaint indicated that Mr. Kelley had hit Parish McKaughman in his head with keys for no apparent reason. A second allegation was that Coach Kelley had referred to Mr. Ellis as a 'motherfucker'.

"We will show that through two complaint hearings in which two written responses were given (to Mr. Ellis), both by Gloria Griffin, the decision was that there was no evidence to support his allegations in the February 21, 1985 complaint. Instead, Coach Kelley was given a written reprimand for offering an explanation of the incident. "We will offer testimony from eye witnesses to the J. V. game of February 19 at which the incident between Parish and the Douglass High School student took place, and at which Coach Kelley willingly admits he pushed Parish McKaughman. We will offer eye witnesses to that J. V. game who will corroborate, in their opinions, that Coach Kelley responded properly.

"We will show that a fight was in process between the Northeast High School basketball player and a Douglass High School player. We will show that Principal Elkins was not a witness to the fight. We will show that the fight was enlarging; the spectators and fans were coming onto the floor. "We will show that Principal Elkins had given no special instructions to either the coaches or the Douglass High School faculty expressing his preferred steps in breaking up a student fight. We will show that Principal Elkins has received no prior complaints about Coach Kelley's performance as a J. V. coach in terms of his relationship to parents and in terms of his methods of maintaining order. We will show that Coach Kelley violated no building procedures, no district policies or athletic rules in exercising quick action to reduce a serious and increasing confrontation at that February 19 junior varsity game.


285 1

MINUTES OF MEETING OF MAY 28, 1985

Opening Statement by Appellant (Cont'd) "We will show that the push of Parish McKaughman was of a minimum force, that no complaint was registered by the parent concerning the push, no treatment was administered for an injury as a result of the push, that the push, in fact, helped bring the growing confrontation under control.

OPENING STATEMEN1 BY APPELLANT (Cont'd)

"We will show that only after the incident did Principal Elkins offer an explanation concerning his preferred procedure in breaking up a fight. We will show that Coach Kelley complied with that procedure after the fact, even without his knowing specifically what Principal Elkins wished to be done. "We will show that no evidence or testimony was introduced at Level II to support the allegations of unacceptable terms directed toward Mr. Ellis. We're citing several areas in the contract as being violated. Article VII, Section 1, has to do with just cause. Article VIII, Section l.E.l., maintains that an oral reprimand wil be given before a written reprimand. Section 2.B.C., that a teacher is to be made aware of the results of a parent complaint conference. If not, no written record shall be maintained. We maintain that Mr. Kelley did not receive any kind of report until after he filed his Level I, and that came from Gloria Griffin. "We maintain that the written reprimand, dated March 4, was not the result of the parent complaint. It had another basis for the written reprimand. Section 2.B.e. says if there is no disclosure of negligence or unprofessional conduct as a result of the complaint, then the complaint shall be dropped and no record maintained. We maintain that Coach Kelley was cleared in two separate statements; one on March 5, which is an exhibit, and a later one at a second complaint hearing confirming the first in which he was cleared of the charges by the parent, Mr. Elvie Ellis.

"Article VI maintains that any material (unproven charges) shall not be placed in the official (personnel) files. Section 8.K., if files contain material that does not meet the criteria, they are to be destroyed in the presence of the teacher. "Article VII, Section I.C., in the contract clearly says teacher has the responsibility and authority to maintain student behavior. We will offer testimony and exhibits to support our position."

Opening Statement by Respondent Mr. Nunn made his opening statement as follows: "The grievant has alleged violation of Article VII, Teacher Rights, Section 1, Disciplinary Action, letters B and E. The testimony today will prove to the Board that there was, indeed, just cause to reprimand Willie Kelley. The testimony will further show that all action taken by Willie Kelley was serious enough to warrant a written reprimand as permitted in letter E, 5.

"The grievant also alleges violation of Article VII, Teacher/Pupil Relations, Section 1, Guidelines for Behavior, letter C, 1, that the teacher shall have the responsibility and authority to maintain student behavior within the building guidelines and in accordance with the behavior policies of the Oklahoma City Public Schools. That each teacher shall post rules for classroom conduct in a location and a manner easily visible to all students by the first student day of the school year. Teacher will submit a copy of their classroom discipline to their immediate supervisor for approval and filing before the first student day.

"We will show that while the teacher has the authority to maintain student behavior, the teacher also has the responsibility to take care of the district's legal responsibility for the safety and welfare of the students. Although the teacher shall have the same right as the parent or guardian to control and discipline such child during the times the child is in attendance at shcool, it does not grant the teacher license to use excessive force or to jeopardize the safety of the school. "The grievant also alleges violation of Article VI, Section B, G, and K. It is the belief of*the grievant that the reprimand should be removed from his file since he feels his actions were justified. We maintain they were not justifiable by any means, and stand steadfast in our position that no part of the Negotiated Agreement was violated."

MINUTES OF MEETING OFMAY 28, 1985

PRESENTATION OF WITNESSES FOR APPELLANT

Presentation of Witnesses for Appellant

Mr. Huff called as the appellant's witnesses Elvie Ellis, Don Elkins, Phil Ingersoll, Alonzo Shipp, and Willie Kelley.

Mr. Ellis responded to questions about specific allegations contained in his written complaint dated February 21, 1985. Mr. Ellis testified that at the first complaint hearing held February 27 at Douglass High School Coach Kelley denied calling him and Parish "bighead M.F.'s", but admitted referring to Mr. Ellis as "a crazy ass guy". He testified that the only written communication he had received was a letter from Gloria Griffin dated March 5, 1985 following the February 27 hearing. Under cross-examination, Mr. Ellis stated he was positive about the abusive language used by Coach Ellis on the night of the incident. On redirect, Mr. Ellis testified there was no substantiating support produced at any of the hearings concerning the language used or evidence that Coach Kelley had struck Parish with keys. Mr. Elkin's testimony concerned the February 27 conference; the incident at the basketball game on February 19; Parish McKaughman's injury as a result of the fight; details of the fight between the two students; written statements concerning the incident by Athletic Director Phil Ingersoll and Willie Kelley, Coach Stanford White, Coach Alonzo Shipp, Coach Marvin Mack, and other.

Mr. Elkins maintained that at the point of intervention by Coach Kelley, it was unncessary for him to push Parish because there there no blows being thrown and the other student was being restrained by at least three others. He also stated that he could not say that Parish was definitely headed toward Kenneth at the time of the push because of the blows Parish had received to his head. Mr. Elkins stated a written report was prepared following the first conference and given to Gloria Griffin, Acting Interim Director of High Schools. He said a copy of that report was not given to Coach Kelley; that Coach Kelley received the results of the hearing in the form of a letter of reprimand. Mr. Elkins disagreed that the incident could have produced a riot. There was no cross-examination or redirect of the witness. Mr. Ingersoll testified that Coach Kelley responded appropriately; and he did not believe the force of the push was excessive. He stated during cross-examination that there was blood on Parish McKaughman's face but did not know if his vision was impaired because of it.

Mr. Shipp stated it was his opinion that the push was necessary and assisted in bringing the situation under control.

Mr. Kelley testified that when he pushed Parish McKaughman, it was his opinion that Parish was headed back toward Kenneth; that no one had alleged in any hearing that Parish was injured by the push; that he used proper judgment pushing Parish back; and that he believed the written reprimand was not justified. Under cross-examination, Mr. Kelley stated he did not see that Parish was bleeding when he stepped between Parish and Kenneth. PRESENTATION OF WITNESSES FOR RESPONDENT

Presentation of Witnesses for Respondent

Witnesses called by the respondent were Elvie Ellis, Willie Kelley, and Gloria Griffin.

(Note: Mrs. Hermes departed the meeting at 1:30 p.m. over the remainder of the meeting.)

Mrs. Donwerth presided

In his testimony, Mr. Ellis recalled the sequence of events on the night of February 19, and described the conversation he had with Coach Kelley. Mr. Ellis stated when he arrived at the Douglass gym, Coach Kelley was in an unreasonable frame of mind. He testified that both he and Coach Kelley were angry at the time Mr. Ellis arrived at the school.

Ms. Gloria Griffin questioned Mr. Kelley. Mr. Kelly testified concerning where Kenneth-Jackson was at the time he pushed Parish; Parish's physical condition at the time of the push; what he said to Mr. Ellis after the game; the letter of reprimand; and his responsibility as a coach during the junior varsity basketball game of February 19. Mr. Kelley, under cross examination, stated he was reprimanded on the basis of his defense of his actions and not for the parent complaint letter.


287 MINUTES OF MEETING OF MAY 28, 1985

Presentation of Witnesses for Respondent (Cont'd)

Mr. Nunn questioned Ms. Griffin. Ms. Griffin testified she first heard about the incident from a concerned Northeast patron. On cross examination she testified that Mr. Kelley was reprimanded for excessively pushing a student when the other studentwas being restrained; that Mr. Kelley did not receive a copy of the letter to Mr. Ellis following the conference at Douglass High School; that the letter of reprimand gave Mr. Kelley the results of the conference. Closing Statement by Appellant

Mr. Huff stated Mr. Ellis was not reprimanded for the complaint of the parent, but on the basis of things he said in a conference following the incident. He maintained the written reprimand did not s^rve as explanation for what happened at that conference. He stated if Principal Elkins deemed it necessary to reprimand Coach Kelley, it should have been a verbal reprimand followed with a written reprimand as required by the contract.

PRESENTATION OF WITNESSES FOR RESPONDENT (Cont'd)

CLOSING STATEMEN' BY APPELLANT

Mr. Huff pointed out the push was not mentioned in the parent's complaint, and said the push was of minimum force, simply to keep the students from getting at each other again. Regarding the "questionable" language directed toward Mr. Ellis, he said Coach Kelley and Mr. Ellis were long-time acquaintances, and that there had been no substantiation of phrases alleged in the complaint letter. Closing Statement by Respondent

In his closing, Mr. Nunn stated the facts that came out at the February 27 complaint hearing, at which Willie Kelley was present, did justify a written reprimand, and stated there was no evidence to indicate that any information from that hearing had been withheld from Willie Kelley. He denied the allegations that the reprimand was unsbstantiated and undocumented, saying after the complaint hearing and an investigation by Principal Elkins, the parent's charges were substantiated and it was determined that the reprimand met the criteria for placement in Willie Kelley's personnel file. Additionaly, he stated it was hard to believe Parish McKaughman would attack Kenneth Jackson while he was being restrained by two Douglass players and a referee; that it was easy to assume a boy bleeding from a head wound requiring seven stitches might stagger forward from a possible concussion.

CLOSING STATEMEN BY RESPONDENT

Board Deliberation

1.

Mrs. Hill made a motion, seconded by Mrs. Thomas, as follows: "I move that the grievance is upheld, Article VIII, Section l.B. as it relates to 'no teacher shall be reprimanded without just cause' because there is a lack of evidence. I refer to the letter of reprimand, item number one."

R. #206 GRIEVANCE UPHELD PART 1, ARTICLE VIII, SEC. l.B.

On roll call the votes were as follows: Ms. Brody, aye; Mrs. Thomas, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye. All aye. Motion carried.

2.

Mrs. Thomas then made a motion, seconded by Mrs. Hill that a new letter of reprimand be drafted as it related to number 2 of Mr. Elkins' memorandum (letter of reprimand) concerning abusive language. (A new letter has been placed in Mr. Kelley's personnel file.)

On roll call the votes were as follows: Ms. Brody, aye; Mrs. Thomas, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye. All aye. Mrs. Donwerth declared the motion carried. Mrs. Thomas responded to questions from Mr. Huff concerning the relief sought by the grievant. For clarification, she explained the new letter of reprimand would replace the one currently in Mr. Kelley's file, and was to address the use of .abusive langauge only; also that the Board was not addressing the other parts of the relief sought. She said building procedures for "breaking up fights and teacher use of physical force" should be addressed at the individual buildings without the Board directing that procedures be written.

SPECIAL BUSINESS LEVEL III GRIEVANCE HEARINGS

Before proceeding with the first hearing, Mr. DeGiusti stated he had two points of order: 1) He objected to the person serving as hearing officer at Level II (Jim Savage) becoming the representative of the respondent at level III; 2) He presented a newspaper article published after the the Negotiated Agreement was signed in August of 1984 which contained a quotation by Mrs. Hermes concerning exemption of faculty members for transfer. He questioned Mrs. Hermes' objectivity in hearing the grievances, and requested she disqualify herself as a member of the hearing panel. Concerning the first point of order, Mr. Savage pointed out that the grievance procedures gave an administrator the right to select a representative of his/her own choosing. He stated he had been respondent at Level III after having been hearing officer at Level II on several occasions. The Board allowed Mr. Savage to represent the respondent. Mrs. Donwerth remarked that she would like to pursue the issue at a later date. After discussion and remarks from Mrs. Hermes and other members of the Board regarding the newspaper article and her stated objectivity, Mrs. Hermes remained on the hearing panel.

MINUTES OF MEETING OF MAY 29, 1985

LEVEL III GRIEVANCE HEARING JUDY JONES (Cont'd)

OPENING STATEMENT BY APPELLANT

Provision of Policy or Regulation Alleged Violated: Article I.A.3., 4a of Memorandum of Understanding. Relief Sought: That the District follow seniority in identifying persons at Hillcrest for administrative transfer, resulting in the grievant's transfer being nullified.

Opening Statement by Appellant Mr. DeGiusti made his opening statement as follows:

"Judy Jones, Teacher at Hillcrest, has fourteen years' seniority in this district, yet she was identified for transfer in the Reassignment Plan while a teacher with ten years' seniority was exempted and allowed to remain. It was also established the Memorandum in Article I, Section A, requires the immediate supervisor to consider program needs of the school. It was shown in the Level II that this was not done. It was also established in Level II that reasons must be required for exemptions to be used, reasons relating to program needs. "The intent and history of bargaining as it pertained to exemptions and how they were to be used was introduced at Level II as well as memoranda from administration, memoranda from the Union, and testimony by Personnel Director Vern Moore, OCFT President Georgia Iannello, Management bargaining team member Carol Berry, and Union bargaining team member Ann Turner to substantiate the intent surrounding the use of exemptions.

"No valid or legitimate reason for an exemption of a less senior teacher was produced at the Level II. In addition, a teacher has a contractual right to receive reasons in writing as to why he or she was identified for transfer. We will show that the grievant properly requested those reasons, and instead of receiving reasons from her immediate supervisor, received the explanation that she was chosen for transfer in accordance with the Memorandum of Understanding. This is no reason. It is no explanation. It is comparable to answering 'because' to the question 'why'. In order for the grievant to know why she was identified she must know the reasons why someone with less seniority was exempted. "Absent valid legitimate reasons for the transfer and exemption, the more senior teacher, Judy Jones, should remain at Hillcrest, and the less senior teacher should be transferred." OPENING STATEMENT BY RESPONDENT

Opening Statement by Respondent

The Board granted Mr. Savage's request that his opening and closing remarks be made only once since all three grievances alleged violation of the same paragraphs of the Memorandum of Understanding and asked for the same relief. Mr. Savage's opening statement was as follows:

"The grievant was identified for administrative transfer necessitated by staff reduction at her school as a result of the Student Assignment Plan for 1985-86 school year. We will show that the immediate supervisor followed the procedures outlined in the Memorandum of Understanding in identifying those teachers to be transferred. "The language of the Memorandum clearly states that the immediate supervisor will consider the program needs of the school in determining where the reduction in staff is to be made. Testimony will show that this was done by the immediate supervisor. Language in the Memorandum allows the immediate supervisor to exempt at least three teachers from a potential transfer. There is no requirement that reasons be given in the Memorandum of Understanding for identifying teachers to be exempt from the potential transfers.


291 MINUTES OF MEETING OF MAY 29, 1985

!!

Opening Statement by Appellant (Cont'd)

"After identifying the teachers, the Memorandum of Understanding states that the teachers to be transferred are identified based on seniority. We will show that the immediate supervisor did follow these provisions in identifying the grievant as the teacher to be transferred.

OPENING STATEMEN1 BY APPELLANT (Cont'd)

"The Memorandum of Understanding does not set forth any criteria for the exemptions nor is any justification required of the immediate supervisor regarding the selection of teachers to be exempted from transfer. The hearing today will establish that the grievants' allegations of the violation of the paragraphs of the Memorandum of Understanding cited in the statement of grievance are not valid."

Presentation of Witnesses for Appellant

Dr. DeGiusti called Vern Moore, Georgia Iannello, Ann Turner, Sylvia Lonian, Nancy Wall, Carol Berry, Judy Jones, and Sue Clark as witnesses for the appellant. Mr. DeGiusti stipulated the testimony of his first five witnesses for Grievance No. 1 would be the same for the second and third grievances, and they would not need to be called again.

Mr. Moore testified he had represented the Board's negotiating team as spokesperson the previous summer and in negotiations for the Memorandum of Understanding. Responding to questions from Mr. DeGiusti, he stated the intent of the exemption process was to provide the maintenance of programs in the schools. He testified concerning the use of program needs as reasons for exemptions; the uniqueness of program needs at various schools; past procedures for determining exemptions; exemptions for reasons of Affirmative Action; and other. He stated that building administrators should inform a teacher being transferred of the reason for their transfer. On cross-examination, Mr. Moore stated he believed the language in the Memorandum of Understanding on procedures to be followed to effect administrative transfers was clear; and that telling a teacher she was being transferred because after taking exemptions she was the least senior teacher in the school was a legitimate reason. Ms. Iannello testified that she was told reasons for exemptions were grievable; that the Director of Elementary Schools, Mrs. Lonian told her one of the reasons the less senior teacher than Judy Jones was exempted was because she had a home computer and Hillcrest was in the process of starting a computer program; and that she called Judy Jones at home and was told by her husband that they owned a home computer. Ms. Turner testified concerning the intent of the transfer language.

Mrs. Lonian testified that the Hillcrest principal had indicated the exempted teacher had shown considerable interest in establishing a computer-assisted instruction program at the school; that a principal does need reasons for exemptions; and that the program need was to establish a computer-assisted instruction program at Hillcrest. On cross, she testified that there was nothing in the Negoitated Agreement (Memorandum of Understanding) which stated reasons for exemptions must be given. Testimony by Ms. Wall concerned a meeting held at Hillcrest between Mrs. Lonian and four Hillcrest teachers on the must-transfer list.

Ms. Berry, testifying as a member of the Board's bargaining team for both the contract and the Memorandum of Understanding, explained how the exemption process was designed to work. She testified that if a school had only one computer and there was only one computer literate teacher in the school, that exempting that less senior, computer-literate teacher from transfer would be a legitimate exemption. She also stated that there was no language in the Memorandum of Understanding which said reasons for exemptions must be given. Judy Jones testified she had fourteen years' seniority in the district; had standard elementary certification and could teach all grade levels at Hillcrest and all subjects except for P.E. and special ed; would be willing to work in a computer-assisted program which might be started at Hillcrest if it would keep her there and would be willing to learn how to use computers; that she was not approached about what her contribution might be to the school's overall program needs; and stated the response she received from the principal about the reason for her transfer (exemption of less senior teacher) was unsatisfactory.

MINUTES OF MEETING OF MAY 29, 1985______________ ______________

PRESENTATION OF WITNESSES FOR APPELLANT (Cont'd)

Presentation of Witnesses for Appellant (Cont'd) Under cross-examination, Ms. Jones affirmed that teachers are transferred based on seniority after exemptions are taken; that she was transferred in accordance with the Memorandum of Understanding.

Sue Clark, Hillcrest Principal, testified that two teachers with less seniority than Judy Jones were exempted, one for Affirmation Action reasons, and the other for overall program needs. She testified that the teacher exempted because of program need had volunteered to start up a computer program at Hillcrest and had expressed special interest in it; that she did not check with the other teachers to see if they had an interest in a computer program; and that the possibility of a computer program had been discussed at faculty meetings. Ms. Clark responded under cross-examination to questions pertaining to the procedure for identifying teachers for transfer.

RECESS DECLARED

Mrs. Hermes declared a five-minute recess at 11:12 a.m. 11:17 a.m.

Mr. Savage stated that no witnesses would be called for the Respondent.

CLOSING STATEMENT BY APPELLANT

Closing Statement by Appellant

CLOSING STATEMENT BY RESPONDENT

Closing Statement by Respondent

Mr. DeGiusti stated a central question in the grievance related to the intent and spirit of the use of exemptions and transfers versus the black and white letter of a contract or memorandum of understanding. He stated the Union had shown 1) the grievant was qualified to teach all grades and program needs as identified by the principal; 2) that a ten-year teacher was exempted because of program needs over a fourteen-year teacher; 3) that the exempted teacher was not exempted for legitimate program needs; and 4) that it was the intent and understanding of the union and management that reasons for exemptions were required.

In his closing statement, Mr. Savage stated the immediate supervisor had testified that she did consider the program needs of the school in determining where staff reductions would be made; that exemptions were properly taken. He said regardless of the intent relating to the use of exemptions and discussions which took place during negotiations, the final, agreed-to language of the Memorandum of Understanding did not specify any criteria for exemption or require that reasons be given a teacher. He thought the proper place to challenge those reasons would be through an administrative process with the principal and the Director of School Operations and to the Superintendent, but not through the grievance procedure. Board Deliberation

Mrs. Donwerth cited a portion of the Memorandum of Understanding which stated, "Any administrative transfers shall be made only after private conference between the affected teacher and the administrative supervisor. In this conference the reason for the transfer shall be explained". She said she interpreted that to mean the principal would explain to the teacher specifically why they were identified for transfer. She also commented that decisions had to be made on contract language, and basing a decision on intent could be a hazardous precedent. Mrs. Donwerth then made the following motion:

MOTION TO REMAND GRIEVANCE DIES FOR LACK OF A SECOND

"I move that the grievance be remanded back to the immediate supervisor, and that Section I.4.a. of the Memorandum of Understanding be complied with; and further, that the immediate supervisors explain in full detail their itemized reasons for the exemptions to the teachers that are identified for transfer. Then these exemptions will be fully checked by the Directors, and if the teachers feel they have been inappropriately identified, they should, again, file a grievance." The motion died for lack of a second.

MOTION TO DENY GRIEVANCE DIES FOR LACK OF SECOND

Following additional Board discussion, Mrs. Hermes declared a two-minute recess to allow time for modifications to Mrs. Donwerth's original motion. Mrs. Hermes pointed out that Robert's Rules of Order would be set aside for this meeting only to allow a motion which had not been acted upon to be brought up again during the same meeting.

RECESS DECLARED

There was additional discussion of the motion, after which Mrs. Hermes declared a three-minute recess to allow the principals in attendance at the hearing to caucus concerning the time frame suggested in the motion.

RECESS DECLARED

Mrs. Donwerth's perfected motion, which was seconded by Ms. Brody, follows:

R. #209 GRIEVANCES REMANDED TO IMMEDIATE SUPERVISORS

"I move that the Level III Grievances which were filed by Judy Jones, Hillcrest Elementary School; Evelyn Eschler, Bodine Elementary School; and Cheryl Metheny, Fillmore Elementary School, be remanded back to the immediate supervisor; and that I.4.a. (Number I, Paragraph 4a of the Memorandum of Understanding, A.F.T and Board of Education, dated March 7, 1985) be complied with. This (action by the Board) would affect all of the Level III Grievances scheduled today (listed on the May 29, 1985 agenda). The exemptions (exemptions #1, Transfers - Administrativeinitiated transfers in current K-4 and K-5 elementary schools) will then be carefully checked by the di rector(s) for fairness and accuracy. This (the checking) should be done by Friday, May 31, 1985 at 4:00 p.m. All Level III Hearings (newly filed grievances which may be filed as a result of this action) must be filed by Wednesday, June 5, 1985, 4:00 p.m."

On roll call the votes were as follows: Ms. Brody, aye; Mrs. Thomas, aye; Mrs. Hill, no; Mrs. Donwerth, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye. Four aye and one no. Mrs. Hermes declared the motion carried.

LEGAL AND FINANCIAL REPORTS ATTORNEY'S REPORT

Attorney's Report

Mr. Ronald Day reported as follows: Dowell v. Board of Education

"I'm pleased to report that in the Dowell case, Judge Bohanan denied the petitioners' application to alter or ammend his earlier order upholding the constitutionality of the District's Student Assignment Plan. Judge Bohanan entered his order on May 23, and that means that the petitioners will have until June 22 to lodge an appeal in the 10th Circuit in Denver. Welker v. Abide v. Board of Education "The District has been brought in as a third-party defendant in another lawsuit. In the suit, the parties are alleging they bought a home from Abide Realty and some other real estate companies and individuals, and that the home was represented as being in the Putnam City School District, when in truth and fact it was in Oklahoma City Schools. The defendant realtors brought in the Oklahoma City School District, alleging that they had made representations to the homeowners based on what some unidentified people in this district told them. The answer date is June 11, and we have forwarded the suit papers to the appropriate insurance carrier to interpose a defense for the district on or before that date."

STAFF REPORT ALL CITY CONFERENCE

2.

Scholarship Award Dr. Jesse Lindley, Assistant Superintendent, Educational Services, introduced Mr. Jack Gunther, representative of the Independent Insurance Agents Association of Greater Oklahoma City, to make the association's annual presentation of a scholarship to an Oklahoma City Public Schools senior. Mr. Gunther awarded the four-year, $4,000 scholarship to Miss Mario Wheeler, graduating senior from Northwest Classen High School. Miss Wheeler expressed thanks to her teachers and to Northwest Classen Principal, Dr. Jerry Smythe. Miss Wheeler, who served as an editor on the Northwest Classen yearbook staff, presented Dr. Wright with a copy of the Northwest Classen yearbook, entitled the "Round Table".

Staff Report - All City Conference

Betty Mason, Assistant Superintendent, School Operations, reported that in the spring of 1984 separate meetings were held with high school principals, activity directors, and football coaches to discuss the feasibility of moving into an all-city athletic conference. The conference was created, and having completed their first year, the principals were ready to report to the Board. Mrs. Mason called on Dr. Betty Williams (Principal at Capitol Hill High School) who was appointed President of the All City Conference at the first meeting, to report on the year's activities. Dr. Williams reported that the All City Conference was organized in April, 1984. She said the president and other officers are rotated alphabetically among the high schools, and announced that Dr. James Robinson would assume the presidency effective June 4, 1985. The All City Conference inlcuded the Millwood District, which was a bonus in that the Oklahoma City principals were able to interact with Millwood staff to solve rivalry related problems.

Regular meetings were held, and things were done ranging from ensuring the consistency of officials' pay and gate fees to developing procedures for handling protests in regard to who won what game. Dr. Williams stated there was not one protest that reached her level for review; all were solved at the building levels. She said the Conference assumed the financial responsbility of the district sports since there was no provision placed in the directors' contingency budget to support the district tournaments and other events. She remarked that their commissioner, Charles Green, had commended the Conference for the uniformity of approach as they dealt with the numerous problems that arose. Dr. Williams indicated the primary plus of the conference was the teamwork that has developed among the high school principals. Dr. Williams presented to the Board a replica of the medallian that is given to the Conference's award winning athletes. The medallian, created by Midwest Trophy, was similar to the Olympic medals.

Following the report, Mrs. Thomas commented that the principals' perserverence and commitment had ensured the success of the All City Conference, and said she thought the coaches, students, and parents were all pleased with the job they were doing. R. #216 PROFESSIONAL TRAVEL APPROVED

Provide students the opportunity to learn about our cultural

heritage as well as other societies. 4.

Contribute to the students' development of creativity and

aesthetic appreciation. 5.

I L

(Cont'd)

Mrs. Donwerth thanked Ms. Brody for her contributions as a board member; thanked Mrs. Hermes for all her long hours of work as leader of the Board; and wished Dr. Wright well in his new assignment in Arlington, Texas.

COMMENTS MRS. DONWERTH

Mrs. Hill said it had been a very interesting and rewarding year for her, citing the reassignment plan as the highlight of her service on the Board. She thanked Ms. Brody for her contributions; said Mrs. Hermes had had a good year as president; and thanked Dr. Wright for his two years of service to the district.

COMMENTS MRS. HILL

Both as an employee and as a new board member, Mrs. Thomas said she had appreciated Dr. Wright's commitment and energy. She said she had enjoyed working with Ms. Brody the past three months, and was looking forward to continuing to work with the Board, which She described as strong and very committed to students.

COMMENTS MRS. THOMAS

Ms. Brody stated she could never give back to the school system what it had given her, and expressed her thanks.

COMMENTS MS. BRODY

Darrel Shepard, Board Clerk, on behalf of the school district, staff, and employees, presented a pen and pencil holder to Jean Brody "for giving of her time for the kids of Oklahoma City".

PRESENTATION TO MS. BRODY

Dr. Wright then presented a plaque and gavel to Mrs. Hermes. The inscription on the plaque read, "Presented to Susan Hermes, 1985 President, Oklahoma City Board of Education". He said Mrs. Hermes had taken over aggressively, had grown in the job, and had done a nice job as President of the Oklahoma City Board of Education.

PRESENTATION TO MRS. HERMES

Outgoing Board President Hermes made the following remarks:

COMMENTS MRS. HERMES

"I'm going to say goodbye to Jean first. I want to thank you, Jean, for showing me the ropes when I was Vice President so I could assume the role of President. I didn't know how to lead until I was under your wing, and I really appreciate that. I want to thank you for all the long talks, all the lunches, and all the laughs. And for the serious business of directing this district. If we couldn't laugh at ourselves, we would surely cry. How many 'words of the night' have we heard? Do you remember John Crawford saying, 'caveat'? I don't remember who said this, but do you remember 'co-located'? And Mr. Ginn's famous 'braggadocious'. How many "quotes of the night' have we heard? LaRue's 'keg of worms'; Betty Mason's 'the right to retread the soil'; Dr. Wright, 'generally, these items are general'. And Pat Musgrave saying, 'we need to do something about our problems no matter what it may be'. Thanks for four and a half years of hard work on the Board. I've really enjoyed our stint together.

"Dr. Wright, for two years of progress in this district, for the passage of a bond issue, for bringing Assertive Discipline to us, for helping all of us get through the business of the district, for your extensive work in the community helping us bond education to the business community, I thank you. I wish you all the luck in the world. I hope that you will succeed beyond your wildest dreams, and good luck and Godspeed to you. "I am extremely proud of this board. I thank you very much for the year that you've given me when I could be president. I was not sure I was ready, but as the year evolved, I think I became stronger, and I did the very best I could with God's help. We've passed a bond issue, we have gotten a tougher grading system, Northeast was awarded a Secondary School award by the U. S. Department of Education, our kids were filmed in the movie, 'Surviving', we opened a new elementary school (Eugene Field), we closed three schools—very painful, but very necessary, and we did it with the least amount of pain to the community as possible. We have a long-range public relations plan and a Centennial plan. We have a new transitional class between kindergarten and first grade. We have adopted a new maintenance training program, and we have changed the intern program.

"Those are all accomplishments I'm really proud of. But again, the most important to me, and I think to this board, is serving on the committee with Betty and Clyde as we mapped out a student assignment plan. The original

was not adopted by the Board, and that was fine because the community and the staff and the patrons and the Board themselves developed one that would work and would be best for the kids, as well as the district. It was really tough being in Federal Court. I'd never been in court before and never testified. That was extremely difficult. "I got a lot of gray hair and a lot of lines this year. I want to thank staff, Ann Frogge and Rosa, for all of the things that they did for me at the last minute, typing speeches and smiling and keeping me going. I want to thank Mr. Ginn for always telling me when I was borderline illegal and I had to go back to the Board and whip us back into shape. I'm just extremely grateful to this district for having given me this year of growth. I say goodbye with a great deal of elation, It has been tough. I wouldn't trade it in for a million dollars, and I wouldn't do it again for a million dollars. And I need to thank the academy, the clerk, the lawyer, and the treasurer."

Outgoing Superintendent Wright made the following remarks: COMMENTS DR. WRIGHT

"To Jean Brody, I'd like to say thanks. You're one of those interesting board members that comes along. You don't look at things like everyone else, and that's fascinating to me. I pride myself on being a peoplewatcher, and just to dialog with you is really interesting. You have different perspectives than many people, and it's good to be exposed to that kind of thinking.

"To Susan, I meant what I said. I think Mrs. Hermes has really done a nice job as President of this board. She's worked hard at it, she's been dilligent at it. This board, for those of you in the audience, is probably one of the most dilligent, most sincere groups of dedicated individuals I've ever been around, and I enjoy all of them individually. When they come together as a group we don't always agree. That has presented some problems, but it has been fun to work through them. I've enjoyed that very much. "To Art Steller, I would expect you to carry on the tradition of Oklahoma City. I'd like you to know that it's a proud and long tradition. I'm proud of this school district, and I want it taken care of. I demand that of you. I would hep you to do that, too. I will give you any assistance that you request, and try to help you get started in Oklahoma City on a good footing. "To Kay Floyd and Pam Thomas, new board members, my best wishes, I look forward to seeing you on the Board and working hard like your predecessors have. Oklahoma City has a grand and glorious history. We are lots better than we think we are. I can't leave here without saying that. We have a great group of teachers; they're dedicated, they work hard, they do a great job with boys and girls.

"To our administration, they, also, are an outstanding group of people. Nobody works harder than our administrators. The principals—Betty Williams gave the report tonight, but let me tell you: They weren't very happy when I made that suggestion to Betty Mason, and she got right on it and said, 'let's have an all-city conference', and (at the time) we were talking about saving money. But they've made it work. They've done the job, and I appreciate the work of not only the high school principals who've done an outstanding job, but all our principals and administrators. They do work hard. "It's been a great two years. I'm proud of what's been accomplished. I'm not going to say anything about that, but I'm just going to say that I think it's been a good two years. It's been very rewarding for me, both professionally and personally. I love Oklahoma City. I shall miss the clean air, the wind—although it's no better where I'm going. The people here are great, they're friendly, they're kind. We've got a terrific city, and I would hope it would continue to progress. I would hope the reJationships with the community would continue, the Adopt-A-School and the volunteer programs and all the other things that are going to make this school district continue to be one of the best in the nation.

Board Member Comments (Cont'd) BOARD COMMITTEE APPOINTED

Mrs. Donwerth appointed an ad hoc Board Committee to report back to the Board their recommendations on the Equity Committee; number of members, racial makeup, and the committee charge.

He asked that the Board recognize the AFSA for purposes of hearing complaints on behalf of its members, bargaining, etc. He also asked if the time periods for filing complaints or grievances as defined in Board Policy and the teachers' negotiated agreement were flexible according to certain circumstances; and if principcals, as a group, had the right to file a complaint or grievance.

Mrs. Donwerth asked the Board's attorney to research the questions and report back to the Board. 2.

SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT

1.

Special Staff Reports

STAFF REPORTS

Betty Mason, Assistant Superintendent, School Operations, gave brief verbal reports on the following subjects (copies of the written reports, a-d, are on file in the office of the Clerk):

(a) (b) (c) (d) (e)

Transition First Grade Classes Early Enrollment Kindergarten Student Communication Council Summer School Enrollment "C" Average Policy

Concerning the transition first grade classes, Mrs. Hermes stated if a need arose for more than the seven classes already planned that she would be in favor of establishing them.

Transition First Grade Classes

Nine families took advantage of the early enrollment, tuition paid kindergarten. Mrs. Mason said she anticipated there would be more persons taking advantage of the opportunity next year.

Early Enrollment Kindergarten

Mrs. Mason recommended that the Student Communication Council meet once per quarter beginning with the new school year rather than once a week in light of the district's ten-day policy for non-exempt activities. Mrs. Thomas asked that consideration be given to including student council officers as representatives at the meetings in the event neither the student council president nor vice president was able to attend.

Student Communication Council

Mrs. Mason said summer school enrollment for elementary and high school was about the same as it had been for the past five years, but middle school enrollment was down. She said the location of the middle school programs was the suspected reason for the lower enrollment, and said next year different locations would be considered. Renovations going on in the buildings during the summers of 1984 and 1985 had restricted the choices for placement of the programs.

Summer School Enrollment

Reporting on the "C" Average policy, Mrs. Mason recalled the policy went into effect at the beginning of the second semester, 1983-84. Data was kept concerning the number of students who were denied the opportunity to participate in extra-curricular activities because of grade point averages being below that of a "C". This type of data were not collected during 1984- 85. Per request from Mrs. Donwerth, Mrs. Mason said staff were being directed to keep another kind of log during the 1985-86 school year to provide information relative to the number of students who may have previously participated in activities and were denied the opportunity in 1985- 86 because of the "C" Average policy.

"C" Average Policy

During 1984-85 there were three appeals for exception to the "C" Average policy; this year there were none. In response to Dr. Heath's concern that students may not know there is an appellate procedure, Mrs. Mason said the information was being included in the 1985-86 student handbooks, and that review of policies directly affecting students was continuing with parent collaboration groups.

2.

Staff Report - Learning Disability Programs Jim Newby, Director of Special Services, reported on the recommended revision of criteria used for placing students in learning disability programs. (A copy of the written report is on file in the office of the Clerk.)

Dr. Newby stated the district's current incidence rate of students exhibiting learning disabilities under the current criteria was in excess of 7%, and^that there was an alarming minority/majority imbalance within the current'LD student population. He said these two problems, in addition to some other variables, have created some extremely difficult scheduling problems, especially at the secondary level.

STAFF REPORT LEARNING DISABILITY PROGRAMS


330

MINUTES OF MEETING OF JUNE 17, 1985

SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT STAFF REPORT LEARING DISABILITY PROGRAMS (Cont'd)

2.

Staff Report - Learning Disability Programs (Cont'd) Dr. Newby said the federal and state LD definitions do not provide the states or local school districts clear guidelines in establishing measurable standards for determining eligibility, nor is there a state or national defintion which is generally agreed upon by professionals in the field. Thus, there is a great deal of inconsistency between and among school districts and states because of differing eligibility critieria utilized for establishing the need for LD programming. He said the district utilized the State Department of Education's generally suggested guidelines for use of grade equivalency measures.

Since the 1970's the school district had been experiencing a general trend of declining overall enrollment, but the LD population had been on the increase during that time. Dr. Newby said the recommendations for revision of the criteria, if approved, would have a positive impact upon the incidence rate and the majority/minority balance of youngsters within the Oklahoma City Public Schools programs. The plan is to be "phased-in" over a three year period. Dr. Newby responded to questions from members of the Board concerning the difference between the current and proposed process for identifying LD students; support needed for teachers and principals in dealing with mainstreamed students; psychometric evaluation backlog; the need for remedial classes, and other.

Mrs. Thomas asked for a report at the end of the first year of implementation.

R. #237 REPORT ACCEPTED, REVISED CRITERIA APPROVED

Mrs. Thomas made the motion, seconded by Dr. Heath, for acceptance of the report and approval of the proposed criteria as stated in the report (approval to proceed as stated in the report). On roll call the votes were as follows: Mrs. Floyd, aye; Mrs. Thomas, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye; Dr. Muse, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye; Dr. Heath, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye. All aye. The motion carried.

In a related matter, Mrs. Thomas suggested that the IEP Committee in its annual report provide data in addition to whether or not objectives were met.

R. #238 AUTHORIZATION TO APPLY FOR GRANTS

3.

Mrs. Hermes made the motion, seconded by Mrs. Floyd, to grant authorization for the President of the Board and/or the Superintendent to execute documents and forms to apply for the following grants:

(a)

Alternative Education Program (renewal of SAGE Program).

(b)

Early Childhood Development Program (renewal of Early Childhood Development Program at Eugene Field School).

(c)

Early Childhood Development Program (renewal of Early Childhood Development Program at Western Village School).

(d)

Early Childhood Development Program (new grant request for Childhood Development Program at Fillmore School).

(e)

Early Childhood Development Program (new grant request for Childhood Development Program at Edwards School).

These five (a through e) are to be funded by House Bill Number .1246, 1985 Oklahoma State Legislature. Mrs. Mason explained how the various grants, if approved, would enable some programs to be free of charge, and others to charge a reduced fee. She said the district had made as many applications as it was allowed this year, and that the West Nichols Hills program would be included in future grant applications.

On roll call the votes were as follows: Mrs. Floyd, aye; Mrs. Thomas, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye; Dr. Muse, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye; Dr. Heath, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye. All aye. The motion carried.

4.

Board Goals for 1985-86 Mrs. Thomas asked that the Board goals as listed in the agenda be held until the Board, Dr. Steller, and administrative staff could reassess them in terms of the number of goals and their relevancy to the Board priorities. She suggested that at this time five or seven goals might be more appropriate than 17 or 19; that they should communicate briefly and distinctly the direction and priority of the school system.

BOARD GOALS TO BE PRESENTED JULY 15, 1985

Mrs. Hermes agreed, and pointed out there were only two short term goals out of a total of 17. She suggested separating the philosophical goals from the short-term achievable goals. Mrs. Donwerth asked that the Board Goals be listed under Items Pending, and said a a board work session would be scheduled. The new goals will be presented in the July 15, 1985 agenda, for action August 1. Mrs. Donwerth suggested Board members contact Mr. Ginn with suggestions or questions.

5.

Hearing Request

Mr. Ginn recommended that based on a discussion between the Board and staff which is included in the Minutes of the meeting September 17, 1984 that the request for a hearing submitted by John Savage on a grievance filed on September 5, 1984 be denied.

R. #240 GRIEVANCE OF JOHN SAVAGE DENIED

Mrs. Hill moved and Mrs. Hermes seconded that the grievance be denied because it was not timely filed. On roll call the votes were as follows: Mrs. Floyd, aye; Mrs. Thomas, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye; Dr. Muse, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye; Dr. Heath, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye. All aye. The motion carried; the grievance was denied.

6.

Travel Requests

Mr. Ginn recommended the Board approve travel requests as listed on the "green sheet" (included after the agenda was printed), and pointed out the dates listed in item (f) should read July 8^-11 rather than July 3-11.

R. #244 GENERAL BUSINESS APPROVED (Cont'd)

Facilities and Equipment: The Oklahoma City Board of Education will provide on-site facilities consisting of one (1) classroom, access to the cafetorium, and use of the playground equipment.

The YMCA of Greater Oklahoma City will provide leadership and staff, program supplies and equipment. 5.

Financial Management: The YMCA of Greater Oklahoma City will collect fees* of $15 per week, per child, from the children involved, which will help to cover the costs of program, leadership and supplies.

The YMCA will be responsible for furnishing liability insurance which will be consistent with District requirements of agencies using Oklahoma City Public School District facilities.

The above Agreement can be renegotiated or cancelled by either party upon thirty (30) days notice.

*No child will be refused participation in the program because of inability to pay the program fee. Mrs. Hermes asked what the appropriate way of selling the athletic clothing in item 2 would be. Mr. Shepard said the method had not yet been decided, but that he would probably work with the previous principal (Joyce Henderson), the incoming principal and some members of the "Put the Class Back in Classen" committee to find out how the most money could be raised from the sale of the items. Mrs. Floyd requested a list showing where the new cafeteria tables included in item 6 would be placed. Mrs. Hermes said it was her understanding that the YMCA Prime Time After School Program would be expanded to provide the program at every elementary school in the district for 1985-86. Mrs. Mason confirmed that it would be at every elementary school and fifth year center. She explained the program was started in the district during the 1981-82 school year with about six schools participating; that the key to getting more participation in 1985-86 was encouraging the YMCA to hire their directors from the district's staff. Many directors have already been chosen from the district's staff.

Concerning the possibility of a tutorial program in Prime Time, Mrs. Mason reported that the YMCA is willing to have any kind of support that can come from the community or the district; that if volunteers can be located, a tutorial service could be integrated into the Prime Time Program. Mrs. Mason added that there was no Prime Time enrollment in the fifth year centers yet because of the district reorganization taking place; however, enrollment will begin when principals return to the buildings and parents enroll their children for the 1985-86 school year.

On roll call for the seven items of General Business the votes were as follows: Mrs. Floyd, aye; Mrs. Thomas, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye; Dr. Muse, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye; Dr. Heath, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye. All aye; the motion carried. ENCUMBRANCES AND PURCHASING

UNFINISHED BUSINESS During the Board Meeting of June 17, 1985 Mrs. Hill made a motion, which was seconded by Mrs. Hermes, to add language to the statement of requirements for hearings before the Board during Board Meetings as follows:

"Any person who is a resident or employee of the school district may address the Board by siqninq a Request for Hearing form prior to this portion of the meeting. The Board does not feel it appropriate for a candidate for public office, an employee who has filed a grievance according to the contract that may eventually be heard at Level III nor anyone in pending litigation with the District, to speak at this time. Anyone falling in this category should proceed through proper channels or in writing to the Board." Thereupon Dr. Heath asked for a opinion on the proposed motion from the Board's attorney. Ron Day suggested modifications to the motion, which were included in the agenda for consideration.

#253 APPROVAL TO MODIFY ’ARAGRAGH 4, "HEARINGS" 3F REGULAR BOARD AGENDAS

Mrs. Hill made the motion, seconded by Dr. Heath, for approval of the wording proposed by the Board's attorney which would change paragraph four (4), Hearings, which is listed in each Regular Meeting agenda to contain the language stated as follows: "Any person who is a resident or employee of the school district may address the Board by signing a Request for Hearing form prior to this portion of the meeting. Please note that school board policies and the law have created separate and distinct procedures and forums for Collective Bargaining, and for the resolution of Teacher Grievances, Employee Complaints, Employee Terminations, Pupil Suspensions, Political Campaigns and Litigation. To avoid circumvention of those separate proceedings and insure fairness to all parties concerned, no person will be allowed to speak during this period of time on a collective Bargaining issue, or an an issue in a pending lawsuit where the school district or board is a party. Nor will a person be allowed to speak on an issue involved in a pending Teacher Grievance, Employee Complaint, Employee Termination, or Pupil Suspension which may ultimately reach the Board of Education through those proceedings for a formal Hearing. Also, no person who has publicly announced or filed as a candidate for public office may use this session as a forum. Speakers are limited to three minutes each unless one other speaker who signs up yields his time to the first speaker, thereby granting a total of six minutes speaking time."

On roll call the votes were as follows: Mrs. Floyd, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye; Dr. Muse, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye; Dr. Heath, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye. All aye; the motion carried.

Mrs. Hill reported for the Joint Committee for Independent School District Number 89 and Vocational Technical District Number 22. The 1-89 representatives are Mrs. Hill, Dr. Heath, Assistant Superintendent Betty Mason, and Principal Jerry Smythe. Mrs. Hill said the joint committee, which had been formed in 1983, had not been very active the second semester of the 1984-85 school year; however, it was the feeling of all concerned that the joint committee should become a standing committee. She said a meeting had recently been held, attended by herself, Mrs. Donwerth, and Mr. Ginn from 1-89; and Del Hamm, Don Wright, and Jim Thrash of Vo-Tech 22, at which it was agreed a special joint meeting between the two boards would be called. The meeting was scheduled for Monday, July 29, 1985 at 7:00 p.m. in the Oklahoma City Public Schools Administration Building. The two board presidents will set the agenda.

COMMITTEE REPORT JOINT I-89/VT 22 COMMITTEE

3.

Dr. Muse reported for the ad hoc Board Committee appointed to establish criteria for the Equity Committee. (Dr. Muse, Chairperson; Mrs. Floyd and Mrs. Hermes, members.) Dr. Muse reported that on June 27, 1985 the Board Committee met with Betty Mason, Assistant Superintendent, School Operations, and Elton Matthews, Equity Officer. Guidelines were established in four areas: 1) definition of "equity"; 2) the composition of the committee; 3) the charge to the committee; and 4) recommendations to the Board from the Equity Committee.

COMMITTEE REPORT AD HOC BOARD COMMITTEE REPORT ON EQUITY COMMITT CRITERIA

Dr. Muse said "equity" was defined as an educational system which provides equal educational opportunities for all children; the same kind of educational opportunity being available to every student in his/her home school. He said the definition would be "spelled out", and measurements devised for determining if equity is being achieved, both immediately and at year-end. Immediate assessments of equity would include classroom equipment, adequate and useable playground equipment, clean facilities, maintenance of facilities, pupil/teacher ratio, etc. Year-end types of measurements might include reduction in the dropout rate, improved attendance, improved attention rates, proportion representation of all 'children in programs (such as PROMISE), and improved individual test scores. The Equity Committee will be composed of 28 persons from at least four areas: 1) retired educators; 2) the business community; 3) civic or community organizations; and 4) parents within the school district. Dr. Muse said the committee was asking each Board member to recommend at least one person from each of the four categories to serve for a period of at least one year, or longer if the appointee so chose.


MINUTES OF MEETING OF JULY 1, 1985

Board Committee Reports (Cont'd) COMMITTEE REP.ORT AD HOC BOARD COMMITTEE REPORT ON EQUITY COMMITTEE CRITERIA (Cont'd)

Dr. Muse described the charge to the Equity Committee. The committee is to visit and review all K-4 schools relative to facility upkeep, appropriate equipment, and pupil/teacher ratio. A model will be established for measuring the K-4 schools. The measurement will always be against the model rather than against another school. The Equity Committee will make unannounced on-site visits a minimum of four times per year. Committee "teams" would visit schools other than just those in their own attendance areas in order to achieve an objective look at the education being offered across the district. The Equity Committee will make quarterly reports to the Board at regular Board meetings.

The Equity Committee will make recommendations to the Board as the Committee deems necessary. So as not to overwhelm the Equity Committee the first year (1985-86), it was recommended that the Committee limit the scope of their activity to grades one through four, then expand their activities to include fifth year centers the next year, middle schools the next, and so forth. Equity in the schools beyond the fourth grade was also a source of concern, Dr. Muse said. To address equity concerns in grades 5-12, Dr. Muse recommended that the School Operations Division make quarterly reports to the Board on the quality of learning for these students. During discussion of Dr. Muse's report, Mrs. Hermes said she would like to have the development of the model be part of the committee's charge; also, that the committee be inserviced so that all the members would agree on standards.

Dr. Muse responded that it was planned to have committee members selected in time for Mr. Matthews to inservice the committee. Concerning the model, he said Mrs. Mason had been in the process of developing the model for K-4. schools for some time.

R. #258 EQUITY COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS APPROVED COMMITTEE REPORT SCHOOL CROSSING GUARDS

Dr. Muse made the motion, seconded by Mrs. Hill, that the Board approve the recommendations contained in the report. On roll call the votes were as follows: Mrs. Floyd, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye; Dr. Muse, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye; Dr. Heath, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye. All aye; the motion carried. 3.

The final committee report was given by Mrs. Donwerth, Mrs. Hill and Mrs. Floyd on the school crossing guards. Mrs. Donwerth reported that she, Mrs. Hill; Mrs. Floyd; Maxine Factory, Safety Coordinator; and Mike Barlow, Director of Community Affairs, attended the Oklahoma City Council meeting on Tuesday, June 18. Mrs. Floyd, Mrs. Factory and Mrs. Donwerth spoke before the Council members, urging reconsideration of removing crossing guards from the City's budget. The City Council approved their budget as presented, but indicated the budget could be amended. Mayor Coates suggested committees from the City Council and the Oklahoma City School Board be appointed in an effort to solve the issue. Council members James, Purser and Carey were appointed as the City Council's committee; Mrs. Donwerth appointed herself, Mrs. Floyd and Mrs. Hill for the School Board. Maxine Factory set up a meeting for June 20 in the district's administration building.

Prior to the meeting between the two committees at the request of the Board committee, Mr. Barlow, Director of Community Affairs, invited various community groups to meet with the Board Committee to discuss the crossing guard situation. Mrs. Hill reported that there was a good turnout at the meeting with many parents, children, principals and crossing guards present. Also in attendance were representatives from Putnam City, Moore, and John Carroll (parochial) School. Mrs. Hill shared many of the comments that were made at the meeting. She said Mrs. Factory had prepared a petition, which everyone at the meeting, signed, and also had petitions prepared to be taken back to the neighborhoods and returned the first or second week of July. Mrs. Floyd reported on the two meetings held between the Board Committee and the City Council Committee. From these meetings, three things were agreed upon: 1) the City and the District both want and need the crossing guards; 2) legally, neither the City nor the District is obligated to provide crossing guards; 3) the City has a budget problem and the District has budget limitations. Mrs. Floyd outlined the plans proposed by the City, which were rejected by the Board Committee.

School Crossing Guards (Cont'd)

At the second meeting, the Board Committee presented their plan. The City would continue to administrate the program, providing the Transportation Department and Police Department Services, and would pay for one half of the District's crossing guards' salaries. The District would pay the other half of the salaries for the guards servicing Oklahoma City Public Schools. Any other entities desiring guards would also be required to pay one half of their guards' salaries. The Council agreed to go back to the full Council with the Board Committee's proposed plan to see if the full council would accept it.

COMMITTEE REPORT SCHOOL CROSSING GUARDS (Cont'd)

Mrs. Donwerth thanked Mrs. Hill, Mrs. Floyd, Mrs. Factory and Mr. Barlow for their efforts. She also thanked Mayor Coates and the City Council for agreeing to reconsider their budget and work the problem out. She said the proposed plan would be placed on the City Council's agenda for July 9, and would probably be voted on the following Tuesday. Mrs. Donwerth then passed the gavel to Dr. Muse, Board Vice President, and made the following statement and motion:

"In recognition of the budgetary problems facing the City of Oklahoma City, and in compliance with mutual concerns for the safety, health and well-being of our boys and girls by both the Oklahoma City Council and the Oklahoma City Board of Education, I want to hand these motions to the Board members and its clerk:

"I move that upon approval and a vote of the Oklahoma City Council, Independent School District 89 of Oklahoma County, Oklahoma, agrees to furnish funds equivalent to one-half the salaries paid to the City's school crossing guards that service the dangerous crossings of children enrolled in the Oklahoma City Public Schools within the confines of the Oklahoma City limits as they walk to and from school for the 1985-86 school year. This agreement to be enacted with all schools involved being treated equally by the City of Oklahoma City. At the time all parties have approved this recommendation, the Board directs our attorney, Mr. Day, to meet with the Municipal Counselor to draw up the necessary legal documents as they relate to Independent School District 89 of Oklahoma County, Oklahoma, and the City of Oklahoma City."

MOTION FOR DISTRICT TO FUND h OF CROSSING GUARDS' SALARIES FOR FY 85-86 FOR ACTION JULY 15, 1985

The motion was seconded by Dr. Heath, for action July 15, 1985. (Mrs. Donwerth stated staff could modify the wording in the motion if necessary.) Dr. Muse asked if any consideration was given to any of the proposals being for longer than just one year. Mrs. Donwerth said the City Council's response to that was that prior to the meetings with the Board Committee they had been in the process of phasing out the program; however, they said they would evaluate the program at the end of the 85-86 fiscal year. Board Member Comments

Mrs. Floyd congratulated Community Affairs Department personnel for Awards of Merit they received from the Oklahoma School Public Relations Association for The School Report and The Eighty-Niner (produced by Pat Yarotsky), and The Adopt-A-School Brochure (produced by Saundra Vallejo). She also mentioned the recent Middle School String Festival and a Duke University talent identification program held in Tulsa where four Oklahoma City Public Schools students received state awards. Mrs. Hill thanked Darrel Shepard, Director of Business Management, for the report on staff assignment of vehicles; mentioned she had attended a ceremony - for three Service Center employees who recently completed their B.A.T. (Bureau of Apprenticeship) training, and reported on some current activities of the Council of Urban Boards.

LEGAL REPORT ATTORNEY'S REPORT

Mr. Ronald Day reported as follows: Dowell v. Board of Education

"Since the last regular school board meeting, the Tenth Circuit has entered two Minute Orders in the Dowell case that I think you'll be interested in. The first one deals with the transcript of the evidence. The court reporter requested until August 20 to type up the transcript of the testimony and present it to the court. The Tenth Circuit denied that request and said 'you'll have it ready by July 25'. Secondly, on their own motion, the Tenth Circuit entered an order stating that the record on appeal, which.consists of the trial exhibits and pleadings, will not be transmitted to the court before the briefs are filed, but afterwards. Traditionally, the record goes up with the transcript before the briefs are filed. I think this is going to have the overall affect of speeding up the decision-making process.

Special Staff Report - The "Strategic Reasoning" Program (Cont'd)

The Curriculum Services Department recommended continuing the program in 1985-86 in the sixth grade language arts classes at Hoover, Jefferson and Moon, and expanding the program to seventh grades at Eisenhower, Jefferson and Moon. Schools where the program would be implemented were chosen because of geographic location in the district and staff interest. In order to pay teachers stipends for the training sessions, the program had to be adopted and mandated by the Board. Training sessions were scheduled to begin in August, 1985. Mrs. Donwerth asked schools. Dr. Earle middle schools were primary reasons for

STAFF REPORT STRATEGIC REASONING PROGRAM (Cont'd)

when the program might be available in all middle projected expanding by three schools a year until all participating. He said budgetary constraints were the not going all at once.

Mrs. Hill asked if any improvement in student achievement had been shown. Dr. Earle said he had no hard data at this time. Dr. Lindley said it was extremely difficult for a program to show any concrete results after the first year of implementation; that 1985-86 would be a better year to try to determine if it made any difference, for example, in the sixth grade. He pointed out that this would be the second year for sixth grade teachers to be working and becoming more familiar with the materials. Dr. Earle said he hoped the impact of the program would be felt significantly "over the long haul"; results were hoped to be slow and steady.

In response to a question concerning the cost of the program, Dr. Earle said the total program cost approximately $10,000 for 1984-85. It will cost approximately $15,000 for the addition of the seventh grades, if approved, for 1985-86. Total cost of the program would then be around $25,000. Mr. Ginn asked. 1) if there were additional staff costs in addition to material; 2) how many students were served during 1984-85; and 3) if there were requests pending to expand the program.

Dr. Earle responded that there should not be additional staff costs, but there would be additional training costs of approximately $2,000. There were approximately 900 students served in the sixth grades at the three participating schools and some PROMISE students in other schools. Plans to expand to other schools would be held until at least 1986-87.

6.

Mrs. Hermes made the motion, seconded by Mrs. Floyd, for acceptance of the report and the approval of the Strategic Reasoning Program for use at Hoover Eisenhower, Jefferson and Moon Schools for the 1985-86 school year. On roll call the votes were as follows: Mrs. Floyd, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye; Dr. Muse, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye; Dr. Heath, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye. All aye.

R. #262 REPORT ACCEPTED; STRATEGIC REASONING PROGRAM ADOPTED

Opening Statement by Respondent Mr. Savage made his opening statement as follows:

"Mr. Billy Williams, an employee of the Lawn Maintenance Department, has been recommended for termination by his supervisor, and the Personnel Services office has concurred in this recommendation. This recommendation was based on a sentence imposed by District Court on Mr. Williams in the disposition of a felony charge against him for possession of a controlled dangerous substance. He entered a plea of guilty to the charge and received a fine as well as a two-year deferred sentence. Also included in the sentence imposed on Mr. Williams was successful completion of the V.A. drug rehabilitation program. "The recommendation of his supervisor and the concurrence of the Personnel Office for termination is just and fair. Testimony presented here today will show that the proper procedures have been followed in making that recommendation."

OPENING STATEMENT BY APPELLANT

Opening Statement by Appellant

Mr. Cowan's opening statement was as follows: "We are here to try to prove that the charges against Mr. Williams are not right. We intend to prove that (he was) terminated because of possessing a controlled dangerous substance, and according to our contract, 'suspension and dismissal because of conviction of a felony'. We want to prove that it is not so (that Mr. Williams was convicted.)"

PRESENTATION OF WITNESSES BY RESPONDENT

Presentation of Witnesses by Respondent Mr. Savage called Oliver Stripling and Abe Mitchell as witnesses for the respondent. Dr. Stripling testified he read in the May 15, 1985 Daily Oklahoman/Times that Billy Williams had received a two-year deferred sentence for possession of a controlled dangerous substance, which was why he made the recommendation for termination in a Significant Event Report. He said prior to that, Mr. Williams had received another Significant Event Report recommendingJ:en days' suspension because of absenteeism problems, but the suspension was denied by the Personnel Office following a conference between Mr. Savage and Mr. Williams.

PRESENTATION OF WITNESS FOR APPELLANT

Under cross-examination, Mr. Williams testified he was arrested in January, 1985; voluntarily entered into a drug rehab program in March, 1985; stated Mr. Mitchell was aware he was in a drug rehab program; and affirmed he had spoken with Mr. Savage about his appointments being reasons for being absent from work. Concerning the disposition of the felony charge, the witness stated he had a conference with Mr. Savage the day he was suspended, and that he did not inform Mr. Savage that he had already had his hearing before the judge and had a $250 fine and two-year deferred sentence imposed upon him. He testified he did not know that the day following his hearing his attorney had called Mr. Savage and spoke in his behalf, but did not mention Mr. Williams had been before the judge, entered a plea of guilty, and received a deferred sentence and a fine. Mr. Williams stated he was currently going to his appointments at the drug rehabilitation center twice a week.

Closing Statement by Respondent

Mr. Savage stated Mr. Williams' supervisor recommended him for termination based on information in the newspaper and sentencing reports received from the District Court.

Board Committee Reports 2.

Mrs. Hill, on behalf of the Selection Committee for Board Appointees (Betty Hill * Chairperson, Dr. Muse, member), reported on the salary adjustments for Board Appointees. She recommended the following fee schedule for the attorney firm and salary increases for the treasurer and clerk:

Clerk (Darrel Shepard)

$100/month increase

Mrs. Hill made the motion, seconded by Mrs. Hermes, that the fees and salary adjustments be approved and placed in the budget for 1985-86. On roll call the votes were as follows: Mrs. Floyd, aye; Mrs. Thomas, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye; Dr. Muse, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye; Dr. Heath, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye. All aye; the motion carried. I

Board Member Comments Mrs. Floyd acknowledged the good job being done by the lawn maintenance personnel, and said her neighborhood association had twice complimented the district on the appearance of the school grounds. She also reported on a July 11 meeting held at Western Village Elementary School attended by herself, Darrel Shepard and Western Village PTA members. The PTA group was concerned with the large amount of bus, parent automobile, and pedestrian traffic all having to use the same lane into and out of the loading/unloading area in front of the school. Mrs. Floyd asked for a study to be made of the situation and suggestions brought back to the Board.

COMMENTS MRS. FLOYD

Mrs. Thomas commended Mrs. Lonian and Mrs. Griffin for the updated publications, "A Guide to a Good Beginning" (elementary school information), and "High School Student and Parent Handbook".

COMMENTS MRS. THOMAS

Mrs. Hill welcomed Dr. Steller to the district and thanked Mr. Ginn for serving as interim superintendent. She announced the Council of Urban Boards 18th Annual Legislative Meeting would be held in Washington D.C. October 27-28, 1985. She said the focus of the conference would be the impact of tax reform on urban schools and communities.

COMMENTS MRS. HILL

Reporting on an Oklahoma State School Boards Association meeting she had attended over the weekend, Mrs. Hermes reported the OSSBA has adopted its policies for 1985-86; the OSSBA is not subject to the Open Meeting Act, according to a legal opinion from the OSSBA attorney, Larry Lewis; and efforts are still being made to purchase property for a new OSSBA building site.

COMMENTS MRS. HERMES

Mrs. Hermes said the OSSBA was urging school boards to contact Senator Nickles to express opposition to Senate Bill 415, a bill she said would force a school district to pay both its own legal costs and those of the suing handicapped child if a school board attorney contacted a handicapped child's attorney first, or if a school district initiated an appeal. She made a motion, which was seconded by Mrs. Hill, that the Board send letters expressing the Board's disagreement with Senate Bill 415 as soon as possible.

MOTION TO WRITE SENATOR NICKLES RE S.B. 415 FOR CONSIDERATION UNDER "NEW BUSINESS"

There was discussion of the legislation among members of the Board, and information concerning the bill was provided by Dr. Newby, Director of Special Services. Dr. Newby offered to provide copies of the bill to the Board for their review before voting on the motion. Mr. Day advised the Board that the motion could be considered under "New Business" since it was not reasonably forseeable that the item would come up at the time the agenda was posted.

*Dr. Heath complimented the Research Department personnel responsible for the 1984-85 district-wideÂť-testing report.

COMMENTS DR. HEATH

MINUTES OF MEETING OF JULY 15. 1985

Board Member Comments (Cont'd) COMMENTS MRS. DONWERTH

Mrs. Donwerth mentioned the Oklahoma City Council would be considering the the next day the proposed plan for sharing the responsibility for salaries of school crossing guards with the district and various other entities, and encouraged attendance at the meeting. Mrs. Donwerth welcomed Dr. Steller to the district, and remarked on a recent Oklahoma City Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors Luncheon attended by several board members where Dr. Steller was the guest speaker. She also reported on the American Federation of Teachers professional issues conference, "AFT QuEST '85" that she and Dr. Steller attended in Washington D.C., July 11-13. She said the conference was worthwhile, and thanked the A.F.T. for the invitation. Mrs. Donwerth reminded the Board that the Equity Committee appointees were to be turned in before the next board meeting, if possible; also, that the suggestions for Board Goals were due.

BOARD COMMMITTEE APPOINTED

Mrs. Donwerth appointed an ad hoc Board committee to set criteria for the annual Board review of Board policies (timeline, completion date), and to develop an evaluation instrument for the superintendent. She appointed Mrs. Thomas chairperson of the committee, and Mrs. Hill and Dr. Heath as members. ITEMS PENDING

Master Sergeant Melton Allen addressed the Board, requesting a transfer for his kindergarten-age daughter from the Oklahoma City Public Schools to the Mid-Del District so that she could attend the school at Tinker Air Force Base.

Mrs. Donwerth told Sergeant Allen that someone from the administrative staff would contact him as soon as possible concerning his request.

LEGAL REPORT ATTORNEY'S REPORT

Mr. Ronald Day reported as follows:

"You probably recall that last year Mrs. Jerrie Reagan filed a lawsuit against the Oklahoma County Superintendent of Schools, Philip White, seeking to have the Star Spencer area de-annexed from the remainder of this school district on the basis that the Star Spencer area is no longer contiguous with the boundaries of 1-89. A decision was made last summer that this school district should intervene.in the case. That action was taken, and since that time we have been gathering pertinent documents and affidavits from the County Superintendent's Office to support a motion for judgment. We recently filed Motion for Judgment and Supporting Brief, taking the position that the area should not be de-annexed and we've received notice that the motion is set for hearing at 10 a.m. on August 9, 1985 before Judge William Saied in the District Court of Oklahoma."

SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT 1.

A motion was made by Mrs. Hill and seconded by Mrs. Floyd to allow a change in the agenda format for the July 15, 1985 Board meeting by moving items number two and number three, Superintendent's Report (1985-86 Budgets) to follow a recess which was scheduled after New Business (see Policy-Exhibit BD-E1, Board Meeting Procedures).

R. #281 ITEMS 2 & 3 UNDER "SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT" TO FOLLOW RECESS

On roll call the votes were as follows: Mrs. Floyd, aye; Mrs. Thomas, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye; Dr. Muse, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye; Dr. Heath, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye. All aye; the motion carried. 4.

Staff Reports A.

Student Interaction Plan Ms. Christina Kiser, Coordinator, Elementary Curriculum Services, responded to questions about the proposed Student Interaction Plan, which had previously been submitted to the Board members for their review. (Copy on file in the office of the Clerk.)

STAFF REPORT STUDENT INTERACTION PLAN

Mrs. Hermes asked how many of the schools paired for interaction activities would go on to the same fifth year center. Ms. Kiser listed the following: 1) Truman, Prairie Queen, and Arthur; 2) Creston Hills, VanBuren, and Lafayette; 3) Dewey and Linwood; and 4) Garden Oaks and Fillmore. She explained that the schools listed on page two of the report were matched because of school population rather than by attendance areas because there was such a discrepancy in the school populations. She said there would be other ways to match the schools based on attendance areas, but it might create greater discrepancies in, for instance, second grade enrollment; two classrooms from one building paired with three or four from other schools, which would make planning activities more difficult for the teachers. In response to Dr. Heath's inquiry about individual school plans, Ms. Kiser said when the schools were surveyed many of them did come up with their own plans, and provisions had been made for those. She said staff agreed with Dr. Heath that providing more ownership of the program within the buildings themselves would be more benefical to both the students and the program in general. Within the stated guidelines, the schools will submit to School Operations the programs that they design.

Mrs. Hermes asked that thank-you letters be written for the personnel files of the staff involved in the development of the proposed plan.

B.

A motion was made by Mrs. Hill and seconded by Dr. Muse for acceptance of the report and approval of the plan to be in effect for the 1985-86 school year. On roll call the votes were as follows: Mrs. Floyd, aye; Mrs. Thomas, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye; Dr. Muse, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye. All aye; the motion carried.

STAFF REPORT DISTRICT TESTING REPORT 1984-85

Mrs. Pat Watson, Director, Planning, Research, & Evaluation Department, and Janie Hall, Standardized Test Specialist, were present to respond to questions or comments on the report, which had previously been submitted to the Board for review. (Copy on file in the office of the Clerk.)

Mrs. Hill commented on the the improvement in math scores over the past three years, which was the fulfillment of a Board Goal, and expressed appreciation to the District's math teachers. She noted that a reading specialist might be what the District needed to assist in raising reading scores. She stated she was very concerned about the consistent lack of improvement in middle school grades, and thought Dr. Maddox might be able to come up with some answers. She asked that the first paragraph on page 16 of the report be re-stated to reflect that the expectations stated there were from an objective rather than a Board Goal.

SPECIAL BUSINESS

Mrs. Donwerth, 1-89 Board President, made the following opening statement, welcoming the Vo-Tech 22 Board and describing the purpose of the meeting: "On behalf of I-89's Board and administrative staff, it is a pleasure for me to welcome Vo-Tech 221s Board and staff this evening to our facilities. We're excited about our first special joint board meeting and the opportunity to work together in solidifying our mutual goal of providing quality education. It is a privilege to host this meeting, and we're glad you're here. "The purpose of this special meeting is simple: First, since the inception of separate boards and districts, the memberships of both boards have changed, with the exception of Dr. Hamm and Mr. Donwerth now serving on Vo-Tech 22's board, and Mrs. Hill and Mrs. Hermes serving on I-89's board. This meeting will serve to funnel the history and background information to us in order for both boards and staffs to be knowledgeable and to understand the rationale that led to form separate boards and districts. Secondly, we feel the need to interact and dialogue about the roles and responsibilities of each board as we deal with vocational technical programs, how we can coordinate our efforts and work together in a cohesive manner to better serve our respective districts. "Hopefully, from this meeting we will be able to ask questions, exchange ideas, offer opinions and express concerns. We will explore vo-tech courses offered by 1-89 and course offerings of Vo-Tech 22. We'll want to know if we're duplicating services and if we can improve on the courses we offer and the manner in which they are offered. We will want vocational/technical

courses clearly defined. Time schedules, transportation and staff attitudes should also be discussed. We have Mrs. Betty Mason with 1-89 and Mr. Andy Dement with Vo-Tech 22 here this evening to make presentations and to provide us with professional assistance. We have other staff members available to answer questions and to serve as resource persons.

"Finally, the purpose of this meeting should be to very objectively sort out the information presented this evening, and from that give very clear, positive direction on how Vo-Tech 22 and 1-89 will work together to ensure that the needs of our students are being met."

Historical Background - Dr. Hamm Mrs. Donwerth introduced Dr. Del Hamm, Board President, Vo-Tech 22, who gave a presentation on the formation of the Oklahoma City Area Vocational Technical District No. 22 as follows:

"It was in April of 1979 that I was sitting over there in the chair where Dr. Heath is at the present time on the 1-89 Board, when the 1-89 Board adopted a resolution requesting the State Board of Vocational Technical Education to form an area vo-tech school district with boundaries identical with the Oklahoma City Public School District. As I look about this board this evening, I see three members remain of that original group as LaRue had mentioned; Betty and Floyd and myself. It was not long after the adoption of the resolution that Paul English resigned and Susan Hermes was appointed to fill the vacancy. She had just been recently elected to that position and was to officially assume that position in June. She got on board about a month early, so Susan has been a very important part of the formation of the vo-tech district, also, from the very beginning.

"Getting back to the resolution, I might say before the Board approved the resolution, there were some other things that had been happening which caused the Board to consider such action. The State Department of Vocational Technical Education had informed 1-89 that our shop areas in the high schools were below standard and that a considerable amount of renovation would be required to bring them up to standard. There was also the formation of another area vo-tech district along the west and north boundaries of 1-89. As I recall, efforts were made at that time to include Oklahoma City in that new district, but for various reasons that we need not discuss this evening, Oklahoma City Schools were not included in that. Before action could be taken, 1-89 and the State Department of Vo-Tech Education had to be sure that such a district with coterminous boundaries could indeed be formed. Therefore, Dr. Francis Tuttle requested from the State Attorney General, at that time Mr. Cartright, an opinion if such a district could be formed even though parts of the district were in area vocational districts formed by South Oklahoma City Junior College and Oscar Rose Junior College. If an affirmative answer was received, another question was raised concerning the residents of districts that resided in the overlap as to whether or not they could legally vote. These questions and others were satisfactorily answered. The district was formed and the board members were sworn in July 2, 1979. "The rationale for forming the district was very clear-cut and understandable from the beginning: it was to free up funds for 1-89 that they normally would have had to have spent renovating shops to meet the standards and teacher salaries, etc.; to free those funds so that they could be used in the general budget of 1-89. It meant that the first year of operation, the 1979-80 budget was just a little over $2 million for Vo-Tech District 22. The first legal budget of $4,210,000 grew to over $5 million in 1980-81. And if we would stop and think, that would free a like amount from 1-89's general fund to be used in areas that they deemed appropriate. It was also decided in the procedural plan for the area school to have responsibility for transportation to and from the home school and the vo-tech center, and thereby create another savings for 1-89. It is important, in my opinion, to understand that not all positive concerns were financial. The creation of the district would provide quality vocational technical education of students in shops and classrooms meeting, or in most cases, exceeding the standards.

MINUTES OF MEETING OF JULY 29, 1985

Historical Background - Dr. Hamm (Cont'd)

"When the area school district was formed, the first superintendent was Dr. Tom Payzant. The first board president was Paul English. Betty Hill was vice president, and upon Paul's resignation, Betty was elected to fill the remaining month as the first woman president of Vo-Tech District 22. It was at this time when Susan was appointed to fill Paul's unexpired term. At our June organizational meeting, Betty was elected to a full year's term as Vo-Tech president, and at that time I was her counterpart with the 1-89 board. "On October 1, 1980, the Board approved an agreement with HTB, an architectural firm, to make some modifications to fit our own particular needs and situation. On February 11, 1980, Dr. Payzant recommended that the Board create the position of assistant superintendent of vocational technical education. This was approved; the position was posted and ultimately filled by Dr. Holodick. Now we began to formulate some goals and objectives for District 22 with the help of staff and HTB. First we thought that we would want to have a centrally located facility. I'm sure most of you remember our efforts to try to locate at Wheeler Park in the String of Pearls, but with the defeat of that bond issue the concept of a central facility was abandoned and we did adopt the concept of "satellite" centers, one north and one south. That concept was approved in May of 1981. Foster Estes Vo-Tech Center was the south site, and then we'd begin to give attention to the selection of a site in north Oklahoma City.

"It was about this time, in June of '82, that Jean Brody was elected the new Vo-Tech board president. Shirley Darrell was a new board member. About that time, also, we assumed the responsibility of the skill center from the State Department of Vocational Technical Education. It's now called the "Adult Center". It houses the SAGE program, one of the most worthwhile programs that we have jointly entered into. Early in the '81-82 school year, the Board agreed to transfer all T & I courses to 22 with the Star Spencer area being the exception. Then things began to happen in fast order. The two boards became separate entities; the Governor appointed seven new board members, and there were two carry-overs from the 1-89 board; the Springlake site was purchased; there was remodeling and expansion of Foster Estes. We are now anticipating our first classes this fall for our secondary students at the new Springlake center. "We are here to serve the adults of our community and your secondary students, and there is, in my opinion, a strong viable rationale for the two districts to work harmoniously together. The two boards needs to agree upon a possible course of action so we can instruct our respective superintendents to follow through. There needs to be a means by which our goals and objectives can systematically be monitored and reports made back to our boards.

"Vocational education, from our viewpoint, to the secondary students is a challenge and it is a real contribution to the educational offerings of the citizens in our community. Just because a student in the secondary school goes to a vo-tech center does not mean that they are being labeled or they are being tracked in an unfavorable manner. I recall one time Dr. Payzant was visiting the Oklahoma Art Center and the Secretary of Education of the United States at that time, Shirley Hufstedler, was in attendence. Some of the artwork on display was by students from John Marshall High School. Dr. Payzant said that he was visiting with some of them and (the students) were concentrating on art at John Marshall for one half day and attending Belle Isle Vo-Tech Center for computer science one half day, and that in the future they planned to attend OSU in computer science and follow their art as an avocation. I think this illustrates the kind of good marriage that can exist between the arts and the vocational programs, and that a student never need to be stereotyped or tracked in a single way.

"We're looking foward to our meeting this evening and what may come from it. ’I hope that this very hasty and brief historical sketch will be of benefit to you as we continue on with our meeting."

RECESS DECLARED

Im r

MINUTES OF MEETING OF JULY 29, 1985

"Two by Two" Committee Report - Betty Hill Mrs. Hill reported on the activities and progress of the joint I-89/Vo-Tech 22 committee, known as the "2 x 2 Committee", since it was formed in November of 1983. She noted several of the issues discussed, such as students' attitudes concerning vocational education, vo-tech counseling for high school students, an annual vo-tech awards banquet, parent orientation, visits by high school students to the vo-tech facilities, vo-tech awareness, and other. At the end of the first year, the committee decided it would be advantageous to meet for one more year; however, only one or two meetings were held. Staff Reports/Group Discussion Discussion moderators were Betty Mason, Assistant Superintendent, School Operations, 1-89; and Andy Dement, Assistant Superintendent, Secondary Education, Vo-Tech 22. Staff from each district were available as resource persons. Mrs. Mason referred the board members to the packets of information previously provided to both boards. Mrs. Mason and Mr. Dement responded to questions and concerns, and remarked on various subjects, including the math/science waiver policy, enrollment figures, course design, students' schedule conflicts, parental influence in students' decisions to enroll in vo-tech courses, the S.A.G.E Program, profile for "students at risk" (potential drop-outs), cost of transporting students, suspension of students (uniformity of approach and exchange of information between districts), high school curriculum handbook, rivalry between districts, future development of the Springlake site, duplication of programs, as well as other topics of mutual interest.

At 9:10 p.m., with consensus of both boards, Mrs. Donwerth declared a 20-minute recess.

Following the recess, remarks were made by Dr. Si Bowlan, Assistant Superintendent, Vo-Tech 22, and Dr. Arthur Steller, Superintendent, 1-89. Appointment of Joint Committee

Concluding Statements

Committee Charge Mrs. Donwerth stated the committee charge had been changed slightly from what was rinted in the agenda. The committee charge as modified is "to monitor the programs, activities, and functions of the two school districts as they relate one to the other, and to submit the first verbal report to another joint board meeting (to be held on or about) November 25, 1985."

Concluding Statements

Mrs. Donwerth expressed pride in both boards, and encouraged members of both boards to put aside negative attitudes about the other's district. Dr. Hamm reminded the 1-89 board that VT-22 also served adults in the community, and welcomed any input concerning that segment of their program. 4*

HEARINGS None

LEGAL REPORT

Mr. Ronald Day reported on Dowell v. 1-89 as follows: "Late last week I received notice from the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver that the briefing timelines in the Dowell case have been extended. It appears that the court reporter that took down the hearing has been ill and needed an additional amount of time, until August 25, within which to prepare and file the trial transcript. The Clerk of the Tenth Circuit summarily granted that request. Immediately following that order, the opposition filed an application to file their brief 30 days after the transcript was filed. They're taking the position that they have to have the transcript before they can effectively present their case through the brief. The Clerk of the Tenth Circuit granted that request. As things stand now, the opposition's brief is due in Denver on September 25, 1985. The Board's brief will be due 21 days thereafter or some time in mid-October."

right to know of the Board's actions. the news media.

This has also been expressed by

This obligation to the public will be achieved by

everyone working together allowing the actions of the Board to be responsibly reported by the media.

The Oklahoma City Board of Education did not choose to be involved

in political controversy, and wishes to remove itself from that c\rena and get on with positively working to achieve excellence in education

for the children of our schools.

The Board has in the past appointed ad

hoc committees in less than quorum groups and without decision making

power to report on various matters to the Board for its consideration and/or actions.

Until the time when the gray areas in the State Open

Meeting Act are resolved by appropriate means, the Board believes that in the best interest of all concerned, and particularly the children of

Oklahoma City Public Schools, that ad hoc committees comprised of Board members will no longer be appointed.

Two non-decision making Board

Committees are currently under appointment:

the work and report

anticipated to be done by the "Three by Three" Committee will be assigned to the Superintendent and staff; the work and report

anticipated by the "Superintendent Evaluation Instrument and Policy Review Committee" will be performed by the Board and Superintendent in

open session. On roll call the votes were as follows: Mrs. Thomas, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye; Dr. Muse, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye. All aye; the motion carried. Dr. Muse returned the gavel to Mrs. Donwerth. ADJOURNMENT 1. #315 ADJOURNMENT 3:59 P.M.

HEARINGS

MINUTES OF MEETING OF AUGUST 19, 1985

HEARINGS (Cont'd) Dr. Steller asked Dr. Wallace Smith, Assistant Superintendent, Business Services, to give a brief report on the progress of repairs/renovations taking place in various district buildings.

HEARINGS (Cont'd)

Dr. Smith stated that the contractor for the toilet room renovations had given the following dates for final inspection: Parker, August 21; Capitol Hill 5th Year Center, August 26; Capitol Hill High School, August 28; Jackson, August 29; Taft, August 30; Harding, September 2; Classen, September 4; Northeast, September 6. From the "final inspection", the contractor will be provided a "punch list" of items still to be completed, but by these dates the stools and partitions should be installed, doors in place, etc. Dr. Smith said the contractor had been talked to about the urgency of having the work completed on time, and that the contractor had a $1,000 per day penalty clause in his contract which would be invoked if part of the facilities could not be used or occupied.

Dr. Smith also reported on the progress of the installation of new doors, windows, plumbing systems, boilers and heating systems; the status of the electrical work, and the parking and play area paving. 2.

Mr. Charles Cooksey, Patron - Mr. Cooksey said he had been refused a transfer for his 9th grade daughter to attend Southeast High School instead of Douglass. He voiced strong opposition to having his daughter bused to Douglass, and stated if he could not obtain a transfer he would take his daughter out of school. Dr. Jesse Lindley, Assistant Superintendent, Educational Services, responded that he had explained to Mr. Cooksey that his reason for wanting a transfer was not one of the reasons provided for in the Board policy.

Dr. Muse stated the Board would stay with its policy; that Mr. Cooksey's stated reasons did not come within the guidelines set by the Board for exceptions to the policy. (During the New Business portion of the meeting, Dr. Heath asked if additional social services could be sought for the Cooksey family to help them make the transition.)

LEGAL REPORT ATTORNEY'S REPORT

Mr. Ronald Day reported as follows: Reagan v. White

"In the case of JerrieReagan v. Phil White v. 1-89, the suit which is pending wherein the plaintiff is seeking to de-annex the Star Spencer area from the school district, the district has had a motion to dismiss or for Summary Judgment on file for some time. It came before Judge Saied for disposition on August 9th; Judge Saied sustained the motion and dismissed the lawsuit. Unless the plaintiff attempts to appeal, which she has the right to do within 30 days, that is the end of that case. Dowell v. 1-89

"Last week the petitioners filed an application with Judge Bohanan, asking him to stay the implementation of the Student Reassignment Plan pending the outcome of their appeal at the Tenth Circuit. Judge Bohanan handed down a decision denying their request for a stay. That was also done last week. I anticipate that the petitioners will file the identical motion before the Tenth Circuit, and I am preparing to respond appropriately to that motion when it is filed." In response to questions from Mrs. Hill concerning the Dowell case, Mr. Day stated the petitioners may file their motion to stay any time they wish. However, he said there were timelines for them to file their brief to address the issues actually on appeal concerning the consitutionality of the plan (due on or before September 25).

8.

Staff Reports Betty Mason, Assistant Superintendent, School Operations, responded to to Board members' questions on the following (written) reports (copies on file in the office of the Clerk):

(a)

Promotion/Retention Report Dr. Heath commented that one concern he had about the "C Average" policy was that it would cause a significant increase in the number of retentions; however, he said the numbers in the report did not reflect this. Mrs. Mason affirmed there was not an increase in the number of retentions. She pointed out that 1983-84 was the first year of the "C Average" policy, and that in the second year, 1984-85, staff had acquired more skill in how to screen students, in giving parents proper notice ahead of time, and in giving the parents assistance in working with their children to improve their grades.

(b)

Overview of Guidance and Counseling Program

Mrs. Thomas wondered if the "Exemplary Standards" for guidance programs were based solely on student/counselor ratio or if exemplary status could be achieved because of other program components. She suggested schools begin self-studies, designed to reveal both strengths and weaknesses, from the perspective of the students, teachers, counselors, and principals. Mrs. Mason said a self-study could be done. Dr. Steller suggested staff might want to include in the study some objectives to helD achieve the exemolarv status. Dr. Heath stated he was particularly concerned about the poorer students in the community being able to have opportunities for post secondary education because funds available in previous years no longer existed. He encouraged the Guidance Department to pay particular attention to this group of students, making them aware of scholarships and financial aid available.

On roll call the votes were as follows: Mrs. Thomas, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye; Dr. Heath, aye; Dr. Muse, aye. All aye; the motion carried.

SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT (Cont'd) 10. Remarks Dr. Steller commented that administrative staff had been very concerned about having sufficient funds to fund the reduction in class size recently mandated by the State Legislature. However, he reported that the district had received a revised estimate of revenue from the State Department of Education and the Oklahoma County Excise Board which indicated the district would receive $500,000 more than originally projected from the County Excise Board, and $31,200 less from the State. The net gain of $468,800, combined with approximately $200,000 which had been set aside in the budget and some additional reimbursement from the State, should cover all of the additional cost for the class size reduction.

REMARKS SUPERINTENDENT

PERSONNEL REPORT Dr. Heath made the motion, seconded by Mrs. Hermes, that the following persons be employed as of the effective date specified, and that contracts or assignment notifications with the appropriate persons herein listed be approved as executed in the name of the district by the superintendent or person by him designated; also, that other personnel recommendations, including terminations, leaves, retirements, resignations, and other information listed be approved. On roll call the votes were as follows: Mrs. Thomas, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye; Dr. Heath, aye; Dr. Muse, aye. All aye; the motion carried.

COMMENTS MRS. HILL

Mrs. Hill commented about the arena enrollment process at Northwest Classen High School. She said she and the Northwest Classen patrons supported the arena scheduling method of enrollment.

COMMENTS MRS. FLOYD

Mrs. Floyd thanked everyone who had worked so hard during the summer to make the first day of school pleasant and uneventful. She also made special mention of Campus Police Officer Rick Ginn, and cormiended his efforts for recently assuring that everything was secure in her home when delivering material to her house.

COMMENTS MRS. HERMES

Mrs. Hermes thanked Dr. Wallace Smith, Assistant Superintendent, Business Services, for making sure the bathroom renovations at Classen Fifth Year Center and Harding Middle School were completed in time for the start of school. She commended J. B. Thompson, Principal at Classen, and Ron Poole, Principal at Harding for their efforts on the first day of school.

COMMENTS DR. HEATH

Dr. Heath congratulated and thanked the Oklahoma City community, students, parents, media, staff and Board for making the decision to return to K-4 neighborhood schools, which he hoped would give the Oklahoma City Schools a new direction.

COMMENTS MRS. DONWERTH

Mrs. Donwerth congratulated the Board's negotiating team and the Union's negotiating team for reaching agreement on what she felt was a very good contract.

Remarking that she had recently received a number of phone calls from parents concerning requests for transfers which had been denied by district administrators, Mrs. Donwerth announced she wished to make a statement concerning the Board's commitment to adhere to the Board Policies. She made the following statement:

"The role of Oklahoma "City Schobls’ is to provide qual ity education to all students. A great amount of work, time, and backup information is used to develop policies which are used to determine how 40,000 students (approximately) can best be served. "Today's society has placed many burdens on families of our students, such as: both parents working; family financial obligations; babysitting responsibilities; and in general, many types of conditions that some parents feel should be shared by the public schools. "Although members of the Board of Education certainly understand these conditions, members believe that when an exception is made to accomodate one family, the Board of Education is neglecting its responsibility to the overall educational process for all students. If an exception is made, the Board is not being fair to the majority of parents who follow Board policies.

"The Board would like to reconfirm its support of not only the transfer policy, but of all other Board policies as well."

Mr. Ronald Day reported as follows: Crossing Guards "We submitted a proposed agreement to the City (of Oklahoma City) in midAugust concerning crossing guards. I had not heard from the City, so this afternoon I called the City Attorney's office to check on the status of the agreement. Mr. Giles Ratcliffe, an assistant city attorney, informed me that he'd looked over the agreement, and that he saw no problem with the majority of the terms of the agreement. He said there were a few things that he might suggest changes on, but nothing substantial. He said the agreement was circulating through the City Manager's office, and told me that he hoped to have the agreement back to us before the next regular Board meeting. Dowell v. Board of Education

"As you know, the appellants filed a motion to stay in Denver on August 21, 1985 seeking to stay the implementation of the Student Assignment Plan. We requested leave of court to file a response to that motion, which the court granted, and on August 28 we filed a rsponse on behalf of the district in Denver. This afternoon I called the clerk of the court to check on the status of the motion to stay, and I was informed that the motion had been referred to a panel, and that a decision had not yet been made on it. Hopefully, within the next week or ten days they will make a decision one way or the other on that motion."

Mr. Ronald Day reported as follows: School Crossing Guards "This afternoon the City Attorney's office delivered to my office a revised copy of the School Crossing Guards Agreement.

Dowell v. Board of Education

"I also concur in what Dr. Muse said regarding the staff and the part they played in the Dowell case. Dr. Steller, Mr. Ginn, and the key staff put together a vast amount of information in a very short period of time in a manner which, no doubt, allowed the Tenth Circuit to make the proper decision in a timely fashion, and they are to be commended."

SPECIAL STAFF REPORTS____________ Summer School Financial Report

3.

Special Staff Reports (a)

Summer School Financial Report

Betty Mason, Jesse Lindley, and Darrel Shepard were present to respond to questions from members of the Board concerning the (written) summer school financial report. (A copy of the report is on file in the office of the clerk.) Mrs. Mason pointed out the report reflected a small net gain, and that enrollment information was included in the report. Dr. Stell er noted that an additional report, with plans for the 1986 Summer School session, would be presented at the April 7, 1986 Regular Board Meeting. Mrs. Hill suggested that summer school teachers be required to have the same qualifications required of regular school year teachers. Dr. Heath asked that next summer staff notify parents of special education students that tuition for special education students would be the same as for non-special education students.

Staff Time Schedules

(b)

Staff Time Schedules Mr. James Savage, Employee Relations Administrator, explained some of the implications of the Fair Labor Standards Act. In answer to a question from Dr. Muse concerning compensatory time, Mr. Savage stated that the act prohibits granting comp time (at the rate of time-and-ahalf) at a time subsequent to the pay period in which the overtime was earned.

Mr. Savage said he was planning an inservice for all administrators, supervisors, and the clerical staffs in the various departments and buildings that handle the time reports. The purpose of the inservice will be to stress the importance of keeping accurate records and to make administrators aware of the responsibility they have to notify their staffs that overtime must have prior approval. In regard to budgetary implications, Mr. Savage said administrators have been directed to eliminate "second paid jobs". He said under the act, employees who work an eight-hour shift, then work a subsequent four-hour shift in the same or another department, would have to be paid for the second job at a time-and-a-half rate with a weighted average of the two salaries.

Riverside Kindergarten Enrollment

(c)

Riverside Kindergarten Enrollment

Betty Mason, Assistant Superintendent, School Operations, reported on the efforts to monitor the enrollment of kindergarten students from the Riverside community. She said efforts were made after Riverside School was closed to advise the Riverside community that special arrangements would be made to serve their kindergarten students at Eugene Field Elementary School (beginning with the 85-86 school year). Because the district only provides bus transportation one-way for kindergarten students, jt was proposed to the community that the youngsters take the bus to school for the a.m. kindergarten, remain on site in the extended day program, and then take the bus back to their neighborhood in the afternoon.

SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT (Cont'd) (c)

Riverside Kindergarten Enrollment (Cont'd)

Mrs. Mason reported that only four children from the Riverside community enrolled in kindergarten at Eugene Field; three of those have not been in attendance since the first few days of school. The Celebration Center, a Riverside community center, advised her that the center had made it known that they would provide free transportation for kindergarteners to and from Eugene Field. She said she was not able to say where or if there were more kindergarteners who would have been in school in the Riverside community had the school not been closed last year. Mrs. Mason said she had spoken with Ms. Hope Alvarez, Title IV Coordinator for the district, concerning the situation. Ms. Alvarez said there was to be a meeting of patrons in that community the next week, and that she would try to get information as to whether families with kindergarten children have left the area or were simply not sending them to school.

STAFF REPORT Riverside Kindergarten Enrollment (Cont'd)

Following additional discussion, Mrs. Mason stated after Ms. Alvarez attended the community meeting, she would bring the Board another report.

(d)

Adopt-A-School Update

Ms. Saundra Vallejo, School Volunteers Coordinator, reviewed the current activities of the Adopt-A-School Program. She recalled that in September of 1984 the district had 40 partnerships in 20 schools. At the end of the 1984-85 school year, there were 160 partnerships in 65 schools. Currently, there are 261 partnerships in all the schools. Not all of the "adopters" are considered major corporations; many of the partnerships are with small neighborhood businesses which provide important incentives for positive student behavior, such as trophies and certificates for "citizen of the month".

Adopt-A-School Update

Some of the recent adoptions by major corporations, state, and federal agencies, follow: The Womens' Program of the Department of Housing and Urban Development and the State Attorney's General's Office have adopted Emerson Alternative School. Inservices will be provided all year long on consumer rights, job applications, and mock interviews will be conducted. The Oklahoma City Chapter of the American Institute of Architects has adopted the entire district. Forty architects have agreed to go into sixth grade classrooms with a project called Design and Learning Center in Space.

IBM Corporation has adopted Belle Isle Secondary School.

The Junior League of Oklahoma City has adopted the entire district. Fourteen League members have volunteered to visit with principals at seven or eight schools each. After reviewing each school's needs assessment, they will go to the major corporations and recruit. Their goal is to have all 94 schools adopted by a major corporation by the end of the school year.

Following Ms. Vallejo's report, Mrs. Thomas stated she believed the Oklahoma City Adopt-A-School program was worthy of national attention; that the tremendous amount of effort being expended should not go unrecognized. 4.

Mrs. Hermes made the motion, seconded by Mrs. Floyd, to grant permission to direct the following persons to attend conferences as indicated:

5.

Remarks Dr. Steller announced the latest "unofficial" enrollment figure was 39,732 students. He said it was anticipated the figure would reach 40,000 by the end of the week.

Dr. Steller said so many people had recommended commendations for individuals who had put in extra time and effort connected with the opening of school that the list was getting too long to read. He said he wanted to let the teachers, principals, custodians, central office staff, and others know that their extra efforts and dedication were being recognized.

Written Communication to a Patron (Cont'd)

RE:

Response to Written Correspondence

Dear Mrs. Miller:

R. #375 APPROVAL TO SEND A RESPONSE TO WRITTEN COMMUNICATION (Cont'd)

A weekdoes not pass when the Board of Education or Administration does not receive a large volume of correspondence from you on a multitude of topics.

It is not possible to provide you with a written response to each piece of your correspondence without disrupting the proper functioning of the Administrative staff in fulfilling the primary mission of this school district. Further, as you know, the School District cannot communicate directly with you concerning matters in litigation between the Board and yourself. This would also involve matters currently under investigation and/or complaint. In the past, the Board and Administration have made numerous good faith attempts to comply with your requests for various documents, and to respond to your many inquiries.

We respectfully submit that apparently no matter how we respond to your inquiries and requests, you continue to reiterate the same issues; therefore, this letter is meant to provide you with a blanket response to your written correspondence. We would appreciate your understanding, consideration, and cooperation in order for us all to work together in the best interest of the school system and students. Yours

very truly,

LaRue Donwerth On'behalf of the Oklahoma City Board of Education

Dowell v. ISD-89 "The appellants filed an application for additional time to file their brief in Denver. They claim that due to the great size of the record, part of it had to be stored in Fort Worth, Texas, and that they have not had access to it. They were seeking this additional time so they could properly review all the documents in the case. The Tenth Circuit granted the request, so their main brief on the merits of the appeal is now due in Denver on October 11. After they file that brief, we'll have 40 days to submit our answer to the court."

OPENING STATEMENT BY RESPONDENT

MINUTES OF MEETING OF OCTOBER 14, 1985

OPENING STATEMENT BY RESPONDENT . (Cont'd)

Opening Statement by Respondent (Cont1d) pending adjudication of the charges against him. This was done through the Significant Event Report, signed and filed by Mr. Joe Tafolla. Mr. Chatman was notified that he had been suspended pending a completion of the investigation and adjudication of the charges against him. "When Mr. Chatman's case was heard in District court, he entered a plea of guilty, and the judgment of the court was that he was guilty of the charge of possession of a controlled dangerous substance with intent to distribute. He received at that time a $100 fine, and was given a two-year deferred sentence, conditioned with the directions that 120 hours would be spent in community service.

"Mr. Tafolla, the Administrative Supervisor of the Maintenance Department, recommended that Mr. Chatman's employment be terminated. When the Personnel Services Division received copies of the sentencing report from the District Court, the recommendation was concurred in, and Mr. Chatman was notified of his rights to a hearing. He was also told at that time of the reasons for recommendation for his termination and informed he should contact the Personnel Office if he knew of any reason the recommendation was not valid. His representative met with me, and at a later time with the director of personnel, Mr. Vern Moore. Nothing was presented at either meeting to show that the recommendation was without just cause. "Based on evidence to be presented today, we will show that the request that the Board uphold the recommendation is made with just cause, and we will have witnesses to enter testimony, and exhibits to be presented during the hearing."

OPENING STATEMENT BY APPELLANT

Opening Statement by Appellant Mr. Morris made his opening statement as follows:

"In response, we will be willing to stipulate that the appellant did, in fact, plead guilty to the charge in Oklahoma County District Court of possession of a controlled dangerous substance with intent to distribute. Our argument as to this termination will not be so much as to questioning the ability of this board to terminate on this basis, as your policy and the negotiated agreement make clear that conviction of a felony is grounds for termination; our argument will be more for a restraint on the part of the board in the exercise of this power. "We will further have issues to raise with this board concerning the method in which Mr. Chatman's employment was handled concerning his suspension. Our evidence will show:

that the only notice he received of a suspension was from his immediate supervisor directing him not to return to work; that the first time in which he was notified there was a Significant Event Report filed concerning his suspension was when we picked up the materials which were furnished to us by the respondent in preparation for this hearing; that he's been given no opportunity prior to the meeting with Mr. Savage on September 25, 1985 to be notified of the reasons for the suspension or given an opportunity to challenge it; that no action has been taken by the board or administration to reimburse this employee for wages earned during the period of this suspension, which was taken without notice to him and without an opportunity to challenge it until September 25.

"We will stipulate that Mr. Chatman did plead guilty in Oklahoma County District Court to the felony charge. We will not be urging that the Board does not have the power to terminate an employee in this district for conviction of a felony, but that in this particular instance there may be a reason for the Board to exercise restraint and not terminate this employee. As to the other issues, we would urge this board to take into consideration the fact that he was suspended without pay, without notice and without an opportunity to confront or to correct this difficulty until September 25, 1985. He has gone without pay or benefits accrued since his initial suspension.

Termination Hearing (Cont'd) Presentation of Witnesses for Respondent - Witness #1, Joe TafoIIa

On direct questioning by the Respondent (Mr. Savage) Mr. Tafolla described the circumstances that caused him to write the first Significant Event Report in which he recommended Mr. Chatman be placed on suspension without pay. He stated the next time he spoke with Mr. Chatman was the afternoon of July 25, at which time Mr. Chatman informed him he had plead guilty to the charges and had received a two-year suspended sentence. Mr. Tafolla stated he then told Mr. Chatman that he would submit a second Significant Event Report recommending termination.

PRESENTATION OF WITNESSES FOR RESPONDENT

Witness #1, Joe Tafolla

Under cross-examination, Mr. Tafolla testified he relied upon the guidelines in the Personnel Handbook when recommending to the Personnel Department that Mr. Chatman be placed on suspension; and that he did not know the nature of the charges when he wrote the first Significant Event Report.

On redirect, the witness repeated the procedure for suspending an employee; stated the procedure followed in suspending Mr. Chatman was not significantly different than the way other employees' suspensions had been handled; and stated Mr. Chatman had been made aware of the suspension by his supervisor.

Presentation of Witnesses for Respondent - Witness #2, Vern Moore Mr. Moore testified that the procedure for suspending an employee as described by Mr. Tafolla was correct.

Witness #2, Vern Moore

The witness testified under cross-examination that he was did not have knowledge of an OCPS employee that had been arrested and not suspended; and that the collective bargaining agreement did not designate arrest as grounds for suspension of an employe.

On redirect, Mr. Moore responded that in his answer concerning employees being suspended following an arrest that he was not addressing specifically felony arrest or misdemeanor.

Presentation of Witnesses for Respondent - Witness #3, James Chatman In response to Mr. Savage's direct questioning, Mr. Chatman testified that he was aware of other employees in the Maintenance Department having been suspended and then terminated; that after receiving the judgment from the court on July 25 he contacted Mr. Tafolla, who told him there wasn't any sense in his going back to work because he didn't have a job; that he made no attempt to contact the director of personnel or write an appeal at that time; that he did not have an attorney at that time; and that he did not furnish a copy of the judgment and sentencing report to anyone working for the school district.

Mrs. Donwerth asked Mr. Morris to cross-examine the witness.

Mr. Morris stated he wished to offer the stipulation that he contacted Mr. Savage in response to the letter from Mr. Savage to Mr. Chatman dated September 13, 1985; and that he met with Mr. Savage on Mr. Chatman's behalf on September 25, 1985 with Mr. Chatman's knowledge. He said the purpose of the meeting was to present reasons as to why Mr. Chatman should not be terminated. Mr. Morris said he also presented reasons for his belief that Mr. Chatman's constitutional rights were violated in the way the suspension had been handled; discussed alternatives to termination; and advised Mr. Savage that Mr. Chatman would claim back pay. Mr. Savage agreed with Mr. Morris' recollection of the meeting, and stated there were a few other things discussed, such as Mr. Chatman being reinstated to his position subject to . several conditions to be met by Mr. Chatman. Mr. Day, attorney for the Board, asked Mr. Morris if he was finished questioning the witness. Mr. Morris responded he was, if the Board would accept his statement as a stipulation of what transacted at the meeting between he and Mr. Savage.

Termination Hearing (Cont'd) Presentation of Witnesses for Responsent - Witness #3, James Chatman (Cont'd) Mr. Day stated he had some questions he wanted to ask of the witness if Mr. Morris did not object. Mr. Savage asked for redirect. Mr. Day instructed him to proceed.

Mr. Savage asked Mr. Chatman why he had waited nearly two months before contacting anyone about coming back to work. Mr. Chatman responded he had been trying "to get other bills taken care of". In response to questions by Mr. Day, Mr. Chatman stated he was arrested on June 14, 1985 and was in jail one day; relied upon the word of Herman Dudley, a fellow worker, that he was not to return to work; that from the period June 18 through June 25 he tried to find other work and could not; that he made an attempt to call Chuck Schaeffer, his supervisor, but was unable to contact him; and that he sent no letters or written communication to anyone at the school district about his job. Mr. Morris asked to question the witness. Mrs. Donwerth informed Mr. Morris that he could call Mr. Chatman as his witness in his own case, as Mr. Savage was resting his case. Mr. Morris asked that his objection be noted, contending that the ruling denied he and his client their Sixth Amendment right; that he had not had an opportunity to cross-examine the witness.

Mrs. Donwerth called for presentation of witnesses for the appellant.

PRESENTATION OF WITNESSES FOR APPELLANT

Witness #1, James Chatman

Presentation of Witnesses for Appellant - Witness #1, James Chatman Mr. Morris called James Chatman as his first witness. The witness testified he had been arrested on a Friday, June 14, and spoke with Herman Dudley on Tuesday, the 18th; that he spoke with Joe Tafolla on the 17th, and that Mr. Tafolla told him "none of us could come back until our trial; that the Significant Event Report recommending his termination was mailed to him and the first time he saw it was September 13; said the first time he saw the Significant Event Report recommending his suspension was in Mr. Morris' office the morning of October 14. Mr. Chatman answered several other questions concerning accumulated vacation leave, his last paycheck of June 14, the meeting between Mr. Morris and Mr. Savage, grounds for arrest as provided in the negotiated agreement, and other. Under cross-examination Mr. Chatman maintained that he spoke with Mr. Tafolla on June 17 despite Mr. Tafolla's testimony that they did not speak until July 25; recalled the conversation with Herman Dudley; and other. When asked why he had been unable to draw unemployment, Mr. Chatman stated he was told it was because he had not been terminated. There was no redirect of the witness. Presentation of Witnesses for Appellant - Witness #2, Dorothy Chatman

Witness #2, Dorothy Chatman

Mrs. Chatman testified she had been on another telephone extension when her husband called the Service Center Monday, June 17 to inquire about his job; that she did not know with whom he spoke; recalled he was told not to come back to work until after his trial date; stated the letter of September 13 from Mr. Savage to Mr. Chatman arrived via Certified Mail and included the Significant Event Report reconrnending termination; and that Mr. Chatman had been unable to find employment following his arrest. Mrs. Chatman testified under cross-examination concerning her husband's arrest; the other men arrested with him; the telephone call to the Service Center on the Monday following the arrest; and that she did not know to whom Mr. Chatman spoke when he called the Service Center.

Termination Hearing (Cont'd) Mrs. Donwerth asked for closing statements. Before the closing statements were presented, Mr. Morris asked the Board to recognize that his client had been very nervous during questioning, and in his testimony probably overestimated the number of vacation days he had accumulated to date. He stated the district's personnel records would indicate the correct number of days. Mr. Savage said the official records could be checked. Closing Statement by Respondent In his closing remarks, Mr. Savage stated the decision to recommend termination of James Chatman was made with just cause; that Mr. Chatman received his sentence on July 25; contacted Mr. Tafolla for the first time on July 25; and that Mr. Tafolla told him based on the decision of the court that he would proceed with a recommendation for termination. Mr. Savage recalled from the conference of September 25 with Mr. Chatman's attorney that conditional re-employment for Mr. Chatman was discussed; however, this district does not have conditional re-employment or rehabilitation programs for its employees. He asked that the recommendation for termination be upheld.

CLOSING STATEMENT BY RESPONDENT

Closing Statement by Appellant

Mr. Morris pointed out that Mr. Chatman had faced up to his wrongdoings, plead guilty and received a suspended sentence by the District Court. He asked the Board to exercise discretion; to apply a punishment less than termination. Concerning the issue of suspension, he asserted that the Significant Event Report completed by Mr. Tafolla on June 17, 1985 did not include Mr. Chatman's signature, and that no evidence had been presented to indicate that the employee had seen it prior to the preparation for the hearing before the Board that day. He asked for consideration of allowing Mr. Chatman to return to work upon the condition that he submit to interval drug testing at the discretion of the administration and that he would agree to maintain a higher standard of employment performance.

CLOSING STATEMENT BY APPELLANT

Dr. Steller called on Betty Mason, Assistant Superintendent, School Operations, to give a follow-up report to her September 16 report on students in the Riverside community who should be attending kindergarten at Eugene Field Elementary School. Ms. Mason stated she believed all youngsters who would have been eligible to attend kindergarten at Eugene Field have now been located. She reported that Hope Alvarez, the district's ESL coordinator, met on September 20 with 67 parents who are part of the ESL component. As a result of that meeting, Eugene Field gained two additional kindergarten students; it was learned that three families moved from the Riverside community to the Shidler community and their children are enrolled at Shidler; and that one family with a kindergarten-age child decided to not enroll the child in kindergarten. She said Eugene Field now has a total of 112 youngsters in the kindergarten program; six who come from the Riverside area. 2.

Audit Reports

(a)

General Fund and Federal Fund Audits Mr. Bill Wilson, a partner in the firm Price Waterhouse, highlighted the reports of the general, building, sinking and bond funds for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1985. He pointed out that 84-85 revenue was up approximately $4.6 million over the preceeding year primarily because of the re-valuation of the district for that year; remarked that going to self-insured workers' compensation was a very wise investment; and reported that the petty cash fund had been eliminated.

Dr. Steller requested approval of Policy BFH, Public Access to School District Records, with the following statement to be inserted as the last sentence in the section, "Procedures for Inspection and Copying Records": "Persons making the request will be asked to sign this log". He stated some other minor modifications to the policy needed to be made; however, he advised the Board to approve the policy as it was listed in the agenda with the understanding that a revised policy would be brought back for approval at the next regular meeting (November 18, 1985).

Mrs. Hill made the motion, seconded by Mrs. Floyd, of Policy BFH as follows:

PUBLIC ACCESS TO SCHOOL DISTRICT RECORDS

The Oklahoma City Board of Education recognizes the public’s

right of access to and review of school district records so they

may efficiently and intelligently exercise their inherent right to know and be fully informed about their school district.

It

is, therefore, the policy of the Oklahoma City Board of Education

that records of the school district and its employees shall be open to any person or organization for inspection, copying, and/or mechanical reproduction during regular business hours.

PUBLIC RECORDS SUBJECT TO INSPECTION Many district records are legally confidential and rightfully

exempt from unlimited access. by this policy.

Personal records are not covered

Records maintained by the school district and

which are open for inspection and copying will be included in a corresponding set of administrative regulations.

PHYSICAL ACCESS TO RECORDS

Public records will be available for inspection and copying at

the school's administrative offices during regular business hours - 8:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. The superintendent will designate the persons who are authorized

to maintain district records as the person authorized to release records of the school district for inspection and copying.

Some-

one will be available to release records throughout the business hours.

Policy BFH, Public Access to School District Records (Cont'd)

The superintendent will designate a suitable place or places in a location accessible to the offices of the aforementioned

persons where the public may inspect and have records copied.

No

person or organization may demand the right to occupy or control any such space to the exclusion of other members of the public or

to the extent that the operations of the school district are disrupted.

No records under the control of the Oklahoma City Board of

Education shall be removed from their designated location by any

person, corporation, partnership, firm or association unless said

record is ordered or subpoenaed by a court

of competent juris-

diction. COPY AND SEARCH FEES

A reasonable fee will be charged to recover the cost of document

search and copying and/or mechanical reproduction.

fees will be determined annually.

Reproduction

Per hour document search costs

will reflect an appropriate cost to the district dependent upon

the employees involved.

Wherein possible the actual copying and/or search costs will be calculated in advance of reproduction or search with payment to

be made in cash, in advance.

In the case of unknown costs, the

person making the request will be asked for the amount of cash they wish to spend on this activity.

Employees will accept the

cash and stop copying and/or search activity when the cost

reaches the amount of cash funds received from the requestor. Once additional cash funds are received, the employee will proceed.

PROCEDURES FOR INSPECTION AND COPYING RECORDS

Routine requests to inspect and copy records will normally be honored at the time the request is made.

However, in order to

prevent excessive disruption of the essential functions of the school district, a request for records which requires over-

whelming staff search or extensive reproduction will be provided within a reasonable time frame mutually agreed upon by the requesting party and the school system.

A log setting forth directory information on the requesting

person or group will be maintained.

Policy BFH, Public Access to School District Records (Cont'd) APPEALS PROCESS ' If a request for search or copy is denied, or if a requesting

party objects to a copy or search fee, then the requesting party

may make a written appeal to the superintendent.

If the request

submitted by the requesting party is denied by the superintendent, said party may appeal, in writing, to the Board of Education at its next regular meeting.

In the unusual circumstance where a particular request cannot be

granted due to the request causing excessive disruption of the school district's essential functions, or nonpayment of the copy

and search fee, requests may be denied pending a written appeal

to the superintendent.

Within five (5) working days after

receiving the written appeal, the superintendent or his designee

shall:

A.

Advise the person making the request of the time and place at which he or she may inspect and/or copy the

records and/or the appropriate copy and search fee; or

B.

Deny the request.

The requesting party elects not to pay such costs, said party

may appeal, in writing and in person, at the next regularly

scheduled meeting of the Board of Education.

Any person denied access to a public record may bring a civil suit for declaratory and/or injunctive relief to obtain a record. However, if the school district or public official involved successfully defends the civil suit, and the court finds that

the suit was "clearly frivolous", the school district or public

official involved is entitled to recover their reasonable

attorney's fees. The school district and its employees are immune from civil liability for money or damages for providing access to records

allowed under Oklahoma's Open Record Act.

On roll call the votes were as follows: Mrs. Floyd, aye; Mrs. Thomas, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye; Or. Muse, aye; Mrs. Hermes, aye; Dr. Heath, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye. All aye; the motion carried.

Mr. Chuck Keeler, Art Teacher, Southeast High School, related some difficulties he had experienced since being transferred to Southeast.

2.

Ms. Jo Bazhaw, President, OEA of OKC, spoke concerning problems teachers were having with noncontinuing contracts.

HEARINGS

In response to Ms. Bazhaw, Dr. Steller stated the Personnel Department was currently reviewing all noncontinuing contracts; the projected completion date was the first week in December. LEGAL AND FINANCIAL REPORTS Attorney's Report

Mr. Ronald Day, of the firm Fenton, Fenton, Smith, Reneau & Moon, reported on a current legal matter as follows: L.I.U. Local 1357 v. Board of Education "Today the L.I.U. and its president, Arthur Johnson, filed a lawsuit against the Board of Education in the District Court of Oklahoma County seeking a temporary restraining order, which would have the effect of enjoining the Oklahoma City Board of Education from proceeding with the official recognition of the E.S.E.-O.E.A. as the bargaining agent for the support personnel employed by this district. This morning I received a call notifying me that the application for temporary injunction would be heard by Judge David Cook at 1:30 p.m. I appeared at that time, as did counsel for the L.I.U. and the O.E.A. At the conclusion of that hearing Judge Cook denied their request for a temporary injunction.

"Title 70 Oklahoma Statutes, Section 509.2, states that the recognition of each employee organization shall be made by the local board of education no later than fourteen days after the election. This election was conducted on November 5, 1985. Therefore, it appears proper for the Board of Education to take action tonight as scheduled on page A-6 of the agenda recognizing the appropriate employee organization. "I anticipate that the L.I.U. will continue to pursue this matter and contest the validity of the election in District Court. I also anticipate that the OEA will intervene. In the event the District court rules that .another organization should represent those employees, then it would be appropriate for the Board of Education at that time to make such recognition."

Policy BFH, Public Access to School District Records, was presented for consideration by the Board as shown below. The Board's attorney, Mr. Day, pointed out one minor modification to the wording in the first sentence under "Copy and Search Fees". The sentence will read as follows: "A reasonable fee will be charged to recover the cost of document copying and/or mechanical reproduction; and under such circumstances as authorized under the Open Records Act, ji reasonable fee will be charged for document search."

PUBLIC ACCESS TO SCHOOL DISTRICT RECORDS

The Oklahoma City Board of Education recognizes the public's right of access to and review of school district records so they

may efficiently and intelligently exercise their inherent right to know and be fully informed about their school district.

It

is, therefore, the policy of the Oklahoma City Board of Education

that records of the school district and its employees shall be open to any person or organization for inspection, copying,

and/or mechanical reproduction during regular business hours.

PUBLIC RECORDS SUBJECT TO INSPECTION

Many district records are legally confidential and rightfully ÂŤ

exempt from unlimited access.

Personal records exempt from dis-

closure under Oklahoma's Open Record Act are not covered by this policy.

Records maintained by the school district and which are

open for inspection and copying will be included in a correspond-

ing set of administrative regulations.

the school's administrative offices during regular business

hours - 8:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.,

Monday through Friday, excluding holidays.

The superintendent

will designate the persons who are authorized to maintain

district records as the person authorized to release records of the school district for inspection and copying.

Someone will be

available to release records throughout the business hours. The superintendent will designate a suitable place or places in a location accessible to the offices of the aforementioned persons where the public may inspect and have records copied.

No

person or organization may demand the right to occupy or control

any such space to the exclusion of other members of the public or to the extent that the operations of the school district are disrupted.

No records under the control of the Oklahoma City Board of

Education shall be removed from their designated location by any person, corporation, partnership, firm or association unless said

record is ordered or subpoenaed by a court of competent juris-

diction. COPY AND SEARCH FEES

A reasonable fee will be charged to recover the cost of document search; and, under such circumstances as authorized under the

Open Records Act, a reasonable fee will also be charged for copying and/or mechanical reproduction. Reproduction fees will be determined annually.

they wish to spend on this activity.

Employees will accept the

cash and stop copying and/or search activity when the cost reaches the amount of cash funds received from the requestor. Once additional cash funds are received, the employee will

proceed. PROCEDURES FOR INSPECTION AND COPYING RECORDS

Routine requests to inspect and copy records will normally be

honored at the time the request is made.

However, in order to

prevent excessive disruption of the essential functions of the

school district, a request for records which requires overwhelming staff search or extensive reproduction will be provided

within a reasonable time frame mutually agreed upon by the

requesting party and the school system. A log will be kept setting forth information on the requesting person or group and will be maintained which will include their

signature. APPEALS PROCESS If a request for search or copy is denied, or if a requesting party objects to a copy or search fee, then the requesting party

may make a written appeal to the superintendent.

If the request

submitted by the requesting party is denied by the superintendent,

said party may appeal, in writing, to the Board of Education at its next regular meeting.

In the unusual circumstance where a particular request cannot be

granted due to the request causing excessive disruption of the school district's essential functions, or nonpayment of the copy and search fee, requests may be denied pending a written appeal

to the superintendent.

Within five (5) working days after

receiving the written appeal, the superintendent or his designee shall:

TERMINATION HEARING

MINUTES OF MEETING OF DECEMBER 2, 1985

TERMINATION HEARING OPENING STATEMENT BY RESPONDENT

Opening Statement by Respondent

Mr. Savage gave his opening statement as follows: "Mr. Ron Randall, a district employee in the Fencing Department of the Maintenance Division, has been recommended for termination by his supervisor for utilization of school district property and personnel for personal gain. This recommendation was made to the Personnel Services Division by Mr. Tafolla, the Administrative Supervisor of the Maintenance Department. It came as a result of an investigation conducted following Mr. Randall's arrest in June of this year. The arrest was made after an undercover surveillance and checking into property losses that was conducted with the cooperation of the Oklahoma City Police Department.

"The district's investigation revealed that Mr. Randall had removed material and supplies from the Service Center and diverted them to a place other than the place they had been scheduled for, which was not school district property.

"The recommendation was not made because of a single, isolated incident, but for a series of acts that occurred over an extended period of time. Mr. Randall was given an opportunity to rebut the charges in a scheduled meeting with the Executive Director of Personnel Services, Mr. Vern Moore. Mr. Randall did not attend that meeting; however, his representative, Mr. Malta, did attend the meeting but did not offer a rebuttal to the charges. "The Personnel Services Division has concurred in Mr. Tafolla's recommendation. We believe that the recommendation for termination is proper and in line with Board policy. We will show through the presentation of testimony and exhibits that the recommendation was made with just cause."

OPENING STATEMENT BY APPELLANT

Opening Statement by Appellant

Mr. Walta stated that at the meeting in Mr. Moore's office on October 21 he was not made aware of the Significant Event Report dated June 17, 1985. He objected to Mr. Savage offering any evidence related to the report. Mr. Savage responded that he assumed Mr. Walta was aware of the circumstances of the suspension; the June 17 report merely established that Mr. Randall was suspended at that time. (Later in the meeting Mrs. Donwerth excluded the above stated report from admissible evidence.)

Mr. Walta's opening statement was as follows: "With regard to the matters that we believe are properly before the Board, they simply did not happen. We will offer evidence to show that the things that (Mr. Randall is) alleged to have done did not occur on those dates, and in fact that he' is guilty of no wrongdoing or misappropriation of School Board property. We request that the termination be reversed." PRESENTATION OF WITNESSES

RECESS

Presentation of Witnesses In his case, Mr. Savage called Joe Tafolla, David Grolock, Tommy Taylor, Wallace Smith, Charles Schaeffer, Nancy Mayes, and Ronald Randall to testify concerning the incidents described in the Significant Event Reports, personal knowledge of the allegations against Mr. Randall, maintenance department procedures, and other. (A recess was declared at 7:05 p.m. following the testimony of Tommy Taylor. The Board reconvened at 7:55 p.m.) Mr. Walta called Joe Tafolla, Larry Bills, Jack Adkins, Tommy Taylor, and Ronald Randall. RECESS

At 9:45 a recess was declared. The Board reconvened at 10:50 p.m. Mrs. Donwerth stated the regular business portion of the meeting would commence following the recess,'and that the Board would hear closing arguments during the "Unfinished Business" portion of the agenda.

Board of Education "We filed the Board's answer brief with the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals last week. The copies of the brief that you received did have a couple of typo's that we caught.

Also, today, I received notice that the Tenth Circuit Court of appeals granted the United States Department of Justice leave to file an amicus curiae brief on this case. It's my understanding that the Justice Department will be supporting •the Board's position. As soon as I have a copy of their amicus curiae brief I'll provide it to the staff so they can distribute it to you. The appellants will now have fourteen days to file their reply brief in the case. When that brief is in, the court will set the case down for arguments by the attorneys^ After those arguments are held.the court will hand down its written decision.
