LEGAL AND FINANCIAL REPORTS

ATTORNEY’S REPORT

reported as follows on current

1 |

Mr. Ronald Day, General Counsel, legal matters:

Dowell v. 1-89

j | J | |

"I had the opportunity last week to speak with Marvin Chatchkin, attorney for plaintiffs, in New York City. Mr. Chatchkin assured me that his clients would appeal Judge Bohanan's recent decision. The plaintiffs have thirty days from the date of the judgement, or until January 11 (1988) to file their notice of appeal with the Tenth Circuit.

| | | ! | | s

"After Judge Bohanan handed down his favorable decision, we researched the prospect of recovering our attorney’s fees and court costs and expenses from plaintiffs in this case. The rule is that in a Section 1983 Civil Rights action such as this, if a defendant prevails, in order to recover attorney’s fees the defendant has to show that the suit was frivolous, vexatious, or brought for the purposes of harassment of defendants.

| |

"In light of the Tenth Circuit’s decision in the case and the remand instructions toJudge Bohanan, I don't feel we have any hope whatsoever of meeting that burden of recovering attorney's fees. However, as prevailing parties, the Board is entitled to costs and certain expenses in the case. We have filed a motion with the court asking the court to assess costs against the plaintiffs. That has yet to be set for hearing, but we anticipate it will be sometime this month.

OESCO v. 1-89

I | | | !

"We've scheduled the conclusion of the deposition of the president of OESCO, Mr. Bud Griffy, III, for January 26. When Mr. Griffy's deposition is completed that day, plaintiff’s counsel will start deposing our consulting engineer, Mr. George Soter.

LEGAL AND FINANCIAL REPORTS

ATTORNEY'S REPORT ESE-OEA v. 1-89

ATTORNEY'S REPORT (Continued)

"This Wednesday (January 6, 1987) at 2 p.m. we have a hearing on plaintiff's application for a temporary injunction in the ESE-OEA v. Board of Education case. Originally, we thought that hearing was scheduled before Judge Amick, who was chief judge last month. Today we learned that Judge Henderson is chief judge, so that hearing will be conducted in his courtroom at 2 p.m. Wednesday. If any of you are available, you are welcome to attend. Ms. Sewell has prepared a very detailed brief, responding to the issues that the plaintiffs have raised. That has been filed with the court. We will be meeting with witnesses in the next day or two and will be fully prepared to present our case Wednesday."

TREASURER'S REPORT Mr. Ladd presented a routine Treasurer's Report. (A copy of the written report is on file, in compliance with State Statutes, in the Office of the Clerk.)

Equity Committee Interim Report

Dr. William Price-Curtis, Affirmative Action/Equity Officer, introduced Reverend Gary Bender, Chairperson of the Equity Committee, to give a progress report on the Committee's activities for the 1987-88 school year.

STAFF REPORT EQUITY COMMITTEE INTERIM REPORT

Reverend Bender reported that eleven school visits have been completed to date. He said preliminary findings show these schools to be satisfactory for all conditions. He said the Equity Committee is studying whether enough attention is being given to the actual mechanics of the interaction plan. A sub-committee to address this issue has been formed. A writing sub-committee and an Adopt-A-School sub-committee have also been formed. Findings will be reported following the end of the school year, at the time of the Equity Committee's annual report. Reverend Bender also discussed standardized test scores. He said the committee has a concern that test scores indicate only a limited number of schools meet the criteria of "equity" and "quality", based on the District's standard that there should be only a 10% or less difference in percentile average test scores between white and minority students. He said the committee will evaluate the authenticity and reliability of the 10% variance.

During discussion, some members of the Board suggested adding more members to the Equity Committee to assist in meeting its schedule of school visits and monitoring activities. 2.

Shadow Discipline Option Report Ms. Gloria Griffin, Director, Middle Schools and Fifth Grade Centers, stated the inhouse discipline program was established to provide a closely supervised eliminated environment; however, the program was because of lack of funds. The Shadow Discipline program was developed to take the place of the inhouse program, and provides an alternative to short-term suspensions. Students may remain at school, but are closely supervised by responsible parents or guardians.

Ms. Wanda Hume, Capitol Hill Fifth Grade Center Principal, presented her assessment of the program. She said the Shadow Discipline program was used when a student's behavior fell under the "severe" clause of the discipline plan. It is used as an alternative to a summary suspension, extending up to three school days. She reported that "shadowing" had been accepted by teachers and parents, and had reduced the suspension rate at the school. In comparison, the first nine weeks of school, 28 students were "shadowed"; the second nine weeks, 16 students were "shadowed". Ms. Maylan Dunn, Teacher; and Mr. Yeager, parent, also shared their positive comments about the program.

Adoption of the 1988-89 High School Curriculum Catalog (copy on file in the Office of the Clerk.)

In discussion of Policy IGDJ, Mr. Prigmore stated he believed students should attend classes during 80% of the nine weeks period rather than for the semester as the policy was printed in the agenda in order to impose a stricter attendance standard. Dr. Steller suggested this change could be made effective the last nine weeks of the 1987-88 school year. The Board agreed to postpone action on this amendment until after the state legislature decides on the no-pass/no-play issue that would affect school districts statewide. Dr. Maddox gave a brief report on the issue of granting credit for certain activities such as cheerleading and student council, recently addressed by the St. Dept, of Education. :He said students may receive one unit of credit per semester for "student council" if leadership training is provided, making it a legitimate instructional period.

NEW BUSINESS Mrs. Hill, Board President, passed the gavel to Mrs. Floyd, Vice President, and made the following motion (for action February 15, 1988): "I move that the absences of support personnel on December 15, 1987, and January 6, 7, and 8, 1988 be excused and that the Personnel Services Division reinstate the leave days charged against the individual leave balances of support personnel on those days if such leave was the result of those days being declared "bad weather days"; and that support personnel who worked on those days be authorized to contact their immediate supervisors to arrange for an equivalent amount of compensatory time. Compensatory time to be allotted in such a manner as to not be a hardship on the district. This motion is applicable only for the days specified, and any changes in existing policies, regulations, or contracts covering further bad weather days will be subject to future negotiations with the ESE-OEA."

HEARINGS

Mr. Paul Hendrick, former substitute teacher, requested that his Level III Grievance (for which a hearing was denied by the Board on December 21, 1987 because of untimely filing) be remanded to Level II for a second hearing at that level. Mr. Hendrick was advised to speak with the associate general counsel. Dr. Steller stated that Mr. Hendrick would receive a written response.

BOARD MEMBER COMMENTS Mr. Hise said he was concerned about two items pending for which the Board had received written information. He said he believed there had been a misunderstanding in what had been originally asked for.

BOARD MEMBER COMMENTS

Mrs. Donwerth commented regarding reaction to the Boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recent action granting the Superintendent a raise in pay. She spoke in support of the Board's action and challenged Board members and administrative staff to listen and be receptive to the concerns of district employees. She suggested that teachers and the Director of Public Relations work together to survey buildings to find out what issues teachers are concerned about. Concerning items pending, Mr. Prigmore stated he had been assured that the Athletics Task Force was not a dead issue; and that he would provide each member of the Board a copy of his written position on the issue of an internal auditor.

Mrs. Hermes said she believed the superintendent's salary was well-deserved, and that she was willing to listen to concerns and suggestions. Mrs. Floyd stated there were problems in buildings that the Board should address. She suggested looking at some kind of forum for staff to air their concerns and problems, similar to the "action line" used by the City of Oklahoma City.

Dr. Steller stated he would bring back a recommendation for some kind of process for communicating and solving problems. Concerning Mrs. Donwerth's remarks, Dr. Muse commented that when he made decisions he tried to do so based on what was in the best interest of the entire district. Special Meeting

LEGAL AND FINANCIAL REPORTS

ATTORNEY'S REPORT Mr. Ronald Day, General Counsel, legal matters:

reported as follows on current

ATTORNEY'S REPORT

Mr. Sandman's Pest Control v. 1-89 "A new lawsuit has been filed against the District by Mr. Sandman, an extermination company that we contracted with to do some pest extermination in the food services area. The suit is seeking approximately $8,000 which they allege was non-paid. Our investigation reveals that this is a case to defend, that there is a case of non-proper performance on the part of the plaintiff. The answer date is March 18. We'll see that an appropriate pleading is filed on or before that date on behalf of the district.

Dowell v. 1-89

"In my last report I informed you that we had filed a motion of tax costs against the plaintiffs on the part of the Board as prevailing party. I recently received notice from the Court Clerk that the Board has been awarded over $16,000 in court costs against the plaintiffs in the Dowell litigation. Under the local court rules, they have the right to appeal that to Judge Bohanan. Norman Chatchkin has appealed that decision to Judge Bohanan, but I don't anticipate any substantial reduction in the amount of costs awarded. "Plaintiffs filed their brief in Denver with the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals on March 3. We're presently working on the Board's brief, which needs to be filed in Denver in April. After that brief is filed the court will set the case down for oral arguments, and hopefully will have a decision in the fall sometime, if not sooner."

TREASURER'S REPORT Mr. Ladd presented a routine Treasurer's Report. (A copy of the written report is on file, in compliance with State Statutes, in the Office of the Clerk.)

Special Staff Report

s’ h

Dr. John Crawford, Acting Director, Planning Research and Evaluation Department, reported on a three-phase project to identify and then study an "exemplary" school in the Oklahoma City Public Schools. The school identified as "exemplary" is Polk Elementary School. He said the next steps are to go into the school and collect information, then share the information with other schools in the district. Dr. Crawford reviewed the school’s achievement test scores between 1985-86 and 1986-87, and said it had improved more than any other school in the district during that period. He stated the identified school has 71% lower socioeconomic students, 99% minorities, and at end of year had improved their ranking in reading from 53rd to 35th and increased rank-order position in math from 55th to 26th. In addition, the school showed evidence of consistent growth over several years.

Mrs. Hill called for the establishment of a committee, charged as follows: "A panel of citizens to examine and brainstorm some of the issues surrounding athletics, and prepare a report for the Board.

DRUG EDUCATION REPORT

Drug Education Report

Dr. Belinda Biscoe, Support Programs Administrator, gave a progress report on the District's K-12 drug and alcohol intervention and prevention program, implemented in the fall of 1987. The various programs implemented include: for grades K-3, "Growing Up Strong"; 4th grade, "Emotional Competence"; middle school level, "Lion's Quest"; and at the high school level, life skills training and intervention and prevention activities. Two first grade students from Gatewood Elementary School shared their feelings about what the Growing Up Strong Program has meant for their first grade class (teacher, Teresa Murphy).

Commenting on the drug education project, Mr. Prigmore stated that perhaps the money could better be used on more substantive drug education programs, including counseling and intervention. He also suggested PTA's, the federal government, and others should be implementing "serious" drug education programs.

1988-89 Student Enrollment Projections

Staff Report 1988-89 Student Enrollment Projections

Dr. John Crawford, Acting Director of Planning, Research and Evaluation Department, introduced the report, which was presented by Ms. Maridyth McBee, Senior Research Associate. (Copy of the written report on file in the Office of the Clerk.) Ms. McBee reported that the enrollment projection for the end of first quarter, 1988-89, is 38,309 students; 741 students less than the end of first quarter, 1987-88. She stated the long range projection for the District forecasts a slight decline each year (average 350 students/year) until the year 2000. When the Oklahoma economy improves, however, she said the District's enrollment is expected to stabilize or increase. In response to questions from various members of the Board, Dr. Steller said that pre-enrollment at the secondary level is expected to eliminate many of the problems related to staffing based on projections. He noted that other adjustments will be made as the number of students to be retained becomes known. He also discussed efforts to "recapture" students who are illegally attending other school districts.

This report should be as creative as possible, with the only major stipulation being that the Board's current financial commitment to athletics not be exceeded in the foreseeable future. A variety of program options should be presented to maintain maximum flexibility. This panel may offer innovative thoughts for possible outside funding sources. The report from the citizens panel should be a springboard for stimulating new ideas about upgrading the athletic program."

Mrs. Hill stated she was checking into the legality of appointing one Board member to serve on the committee as an ex-officio member. She asked Board members to name up to two patrons to serve on the committee.

Mr. Ronald Day, General Counsel, reported as follows on current legal matters:

Dowell v. 1-89

"My staff and I have been putting the final touches on the Board's brief, which is to be filed in the Dowell case, in the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals at Denver. The brief is now complete. Earlier today it was express mailed to Denver for filing. I feel that we have a product that we can be proud of, and, hopefully, it will do the job we need it to do before the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals. After the plaintiff's attorneys receive this brief, they will have fourteen days to file a reply brief in order to give their reply to the arguments that we have made. After that brief is in, the clerk of the Tenth Circuit will calendar the case for oral argument. I anticipate that they'll set the case some time in Denver for the purpose of hearing arguments. If things go as planned, we should have a decision from the Tenth Circuit before school starts next fall." TREASURER’S REPORT

NEW BUSINESS None HEARINGS

None BOARD MEMBER COMMENTS

Mr. Prigmore stated he would like to address one particular aspect of Affirmative Action, and that is to have staff evaluate the District's current efforts to recruit quality minority teachers. He suggested additional personnel and funds should be dedicated to this effort, possibly in the amount of a $50,000-$75,000 budgetary item. Dr. Steller stated that district administrative staff already has such a study planned, and that they will address Mr. Prigmore's concerns.

BOARD MEMBERS' COMMENTS

Dr. Muse commented regarding a recent AFT brochure in which he said his name was inappropriately listed. Mrs. Floyd reported that she attended an additional OSSBA "Day at the Capitol" for school board members to lobby for ad valorem reform legislation. She noted that some PTA members were also there to assist. Mrs. Floyd also commented concerning Affirmative Action goals. She said she was optimistic that the newly hired administrator of human resources management would be able to help the District meet those goals. Mr. Hise said some of his main areas of concern are teacher assignments and the Statistical Profile. He said the district's first priority should always be the classroom. Mr. Prigmore said he was frustrated and saddened by reports of behavior recently exhibited by some staff members. He said that even though this behavior may be evidence of dissension or low morale, that cheating in education is not to be condoned or tolerated in any way. He said the burden of that behavior must be shared by all, not just teachers, and stated, "(we should) pledge our support to open and honest and ethical behavior, and, importantly, fair play in all our dealings." On another matter, Mr. Prigmore urged that everyone read the series of articles currently being published in the Oklahoman concerning the Vietnamese community in Oklahoma City.

General Counsel,

ATTORNEY'S i REPORT Â§

Board Policy BDE

"Policy BDE is on the agenda for Board consideration and approval. At Mr. Shepard's request, I reviewed the proposed policy. It appears that the majority of the concerns expressed by the Board at the last meeting have been clarified in this policy. "Mr. Prigmore had a question with regard to sanctions for a party failing to notify the other side of legal counsel. I know that the administration has added a five day period within which that notification is to be made. It's five days before the hearing, but there is no specific sanction for non-compliance. I inquired of Mr. Shepard about that, and I'm told that under the procedural issues in paragraph K, it's within the discretion of the Board to impose the sanction for non-compliance. It's my understanding that, ideally, if this were to occur, the first sanction to be imposed would be a continuance. That would be the most logical thing. If the violation took place a second time, it could lead to dismissal of the hearing.

Use of District Mail Service By Unions "I think you need to be aware of a Supreme Court decision that was handed down in late April. As you know, in the Collective Bargaining Agreement with the teachers there is a provision whereby they have the use of the school district's mail system for distribution of literature to various schools in the district. The Supreme Court, on April 20, handed down a 5-3 split decision, discussing the propriety of distributing union mail. In a decision authored by Sandra Day O'Connor, the Supreme Court held that it violated the Federal postal laws for a university to distribute union mail to university employees at its various campuses. The decision also analyzed various exceptions to the postal laws and concluded that those do not apply.

"I think there's no doubt that the decision is going to have an impact on our district. I'm not certain at this time to what extent. Mr. Shepard has submitted a list of questions to me for answering about the decision. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be giving it more study in the future and be providing recommendations in the near future. At this point I just wanted to alert you to the decision, and it does appear that some changes are going to have to be made." SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT

At the conclusion of the staff reports and the motion, seconded by Mrs. Hermes, Superintendent's Report, items 1-3. At items 3 a-b were voted on separately. On and 3 c-f, the votes were as follows: Hermes, aye; Dr. Muse, aye; Mrs. Floyd, Donwerth, aye; Mrs. Hill, aye. All aye. motion carried.

sideration. Students shall not participate in athletics until they file with the principal a physical examination and parental consent cer-

tificate.

All interscholastic athletics shall be governed by

Board policy, administrative rules, State and Federal laws, and

rules and regulations of the Oklahoma Secondary School Activities Association. Students who participate in interscholastic athletics must pass

HEARINGS

Ms. Geri Price, new executive director of the Oklahoma City Public School Foundation, introduced herself to the Board of Education. She stated the purpose of the foundation is to "bring private resources to impact on public education in Oklahoma City, to enhance the quality of public education, and to increase the awareness of the business, civic, and philanthropic leaders of our community of excellence in our school system". Ms. Ann Turner, Media Specialist, Grant High School, expressed concern that the auditors who annually examine the high schools' activity accounts were requesting financial secretaries to report to the schools on days during their summer vacations. Dr. Steller responded that he would check into the problem and report back to the Board. Mr. Tony DeGiusti, President, AFT-OKC, spoke concerning 1) alleged violations of neutrality during the recent teachers' representation election; 2) allegations of middle and high school students being encouraged to skip the last one or two days of school; and 3) and the uncertainty felt by teachers on non-continuing contracts. Capitol Hill High School patrons Mr. John L. Cole and Mr. Dave Ross praised the efforts of the school's principal, Dr. Betty Williams, and asked the Board to reconsider her transfer to Grant High School.

Task Force Report on "Pull-Out" Programs

Dr. Belinda Biscoe, Administrator, Support Programs, and Chairperson of the Task Force on Pull-Out Reductions, reported the task force's findings and recommendations. Dr. Biscoe stated the task force had concluded that, based on the current data on pull-out programs, students spend significant portions of their time out of the regular classroom, depriving them of important learning time and creating problems for teachers as they attempt to plan instruction.

Procedural Issues Mr. Moore raised a procedural issue, seeking dismissal, containing three propositions as follows: 1) Grievant failed to set forth the correct article for which relief can be granted; 2) Grievant failed to properly utilize the provisions of the Collective Bargaining Agreement in the processing of the grievance; 3) The Grievant's representative violated Board policy. (Copy of the complete document on file in the Office of the Clerk.) Mr. Moore stated the grievant was on official union business at the time of the alleged incident, and, therefore, Principal Walding was not acting in a supervisory capacity of the grievant. Mr. DeGiusti responded that Ms. Gentry was a "teacher" as defined in the negotiated agreement; that previous similar grievances had been filed at both Level II and Level III in the past; and that the grievance could not have been filed at Level I "because the respondent was not her immediate supervisor and could not have been asked to reprimand himself." Mr. DeGiusti raised the following procedural issues: minutes before the Level II grievance, the respondent cancel; 2) The respondent submitted his narrative one 3) The respondent viewed the grievant's narrative submitting the respondent's narrative; and 4) the hearing was not held within five days.

1) Thirty called to day late ; prior to Level II

Mr. Moore responded to Mr. DeGiusti's allegations, He stated the timelines for Level III did not apply as no Level I or II hearing was held; and that the Level II was rescheduled.

Mr. Day stated there appeared to be disputed issues of fact with respect to whether or not the grievant stood as teacher or a union representative, which would need to be determined before the first procedural issue could be answered; also, that there were differing views on how the Level II hearing was cancelled. He suggested the Board hear the evidence before ruling on the respondent's motion to dismiss on the procedural issues. I

OPENING STATEMENTS Opening Statement by Grievant

Mr. DeGiusti made his opening statement as follows: "On May 11, 1988, the grievant, Sharon Gentry, visited Bodine Elementary School in her capacity as a teacher, acting as a Union Representative, during the collective bargaining election between AFT and OEA. As she entered the building, she noticed an OEA poster on the glass next to the front door, readily visible as you walked into the school. A poster she knew Mr. Walding had been asked to take down twice because it violated campaign neutrality. "Why Mr. Walding chose not to remove the poster prior to Ms. Gentry's visit is a question we hope to answer today. But more important was his reaction when Ms. Gentry asked him again to remove the poster because it violated campaign neutrality. Instead of taking the poster down and maintaining the neutrality of administration in a labor election, Mr. Walding chose to argue with Ms. Gentry. Not only did he argue, he raised his voice in the presence of a secretary and another teacher. And then he challenged Ms. Gentry to file a grievance.

"We will show today through evidence and testimony that Ms. Gentry, as a teacher on temporary leave as union representative, is entitled to the same rights and protections of the contract as a regular contract teacher; that Mr. Walding's outburst constitutes an unjust and public reprimand; that Ms. Gentry has always, and did on that day, exhibit an exemplary and professional demeanor and, thus, did not deserve the treatment she received at the hands of Mr. Walding, and that precedent has indeed been set for union reps filing reprimand grievances against administrators who don't happen to be their immediate supervisors. "We would not be here tonight, ladies and gentlemen of the Board, if Mr. Walding had just taken down the poster as he was asked to do three times. Instead, here we are."

Opening Statement by Respondent

Mr. Moore's opening statement was as follows: "The grievant alleges that the respondent, Dr. Henry Walding, Principal at Bodine Elementary School, violated Article III, Section 1, B-l, by reprimanding her in the presence of another teacher and a support employee. The respondent denies this claim and he also states that he did not violate the above article in reference; that the grievant was not acting in the capacity of a teacher, nor was she assigned to either a permanent or temporary position at Bodine Elementary School.

"The respondent states that he conducted himself in a professional manner at all times toward the grievant, and that he advised her of the proper procedure to utilize in voicing her objections. The respondent maintains that the grievantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s representative violated Board Policy BDDH by speaking on the grieved subject matter before the Board of Education on June 6, 1988. The respondent does not believe that he violated any provisions of the Collective Bargaining Agreement and, therefore, no written apology nor being subject to any written reprimand is appropriate."

CLOSING STATEMENTS

Closing Statement by Grievant

Mr. DeGiusti made follows:

the closing statement

for the grievant

"As I stated in my opening statement, we would not be gathered here tonight, we wouldn't have had all these procedural arguments, we wouldn't have had a Level II that Mr. Walding chose not to attend, we would have had none of that if Mr. Walding would have just removed the poster in question. He didn't. The poster was an obvious campaign poster for a competing union. But that, as I stated before, isn't necessarily the main thrust of this grievance. The main thrust of this grievance is that a representative of the union who is a teacher, who is an employee, who is protected by the terms and conditions of this contract, was reprimanded unjustly and in the presence of other folks. "The principal in question, Mr. Walding, claims he did not raise his voice. I think we've established here that there's a pattern of Mr#- Walding raising his voice to other people. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a pattern of Mr. Walding reprimanding people. And that

214

MINUTES OF MEETING OF JUNE 13, 1988

SPECIAL BUSINESS - LEVEL III GRIEVANCE

CLOSING STATEMENTS Closing Statement by Grievant (Continued) pattern has started only since January when he came on board at Bodine. The union rep in question, Sharon Gentry, happened to be the recipient of this raised voice this time. He told her, ’Go ahead; file a grievance'.

"You've got an administrator out there, folks, who is soliciting grievances. And I know you don't need as many grievances as you've been getting, so you shouldn't have somebody out there inviting them. But there's an old saying that you'd better watch out what you wish for because you might get it. And Mr. Walding got it this time because he said, 'Go ahead and file a grievance'. And Ms. Gentry, not taking kindly to harsh treatment at the hands of an administrator after being in 150 buildings in two years and never being talked to like that before, did file a grievance on a reprimand—a public reprimand and an unjust reprimand. She shouldn't have been talked to like that; his voice shouldn't have been raised to her. He also said, 'Go ahead; show me in the contract where I can't have that poster up' . It was an argumentative style, it was an adversarial style, and Ms. Gentry didn't deserve it. "One of the teachers at Bodine who Ms. Gentry told immediately after the incident that 'your principal just yelled at me', and the lady said, 'well, don't feel bad--he does that to everybody'. Mr. Walding was told, in spite of what you've just heard from his testimony, three times to remove that poster. Well, he was told three times—he testified to that, but there’s a dispute as to when Mr. Moore first told him to take it down. But he was told a total of three times and he finally took it down. He claims he acted professionally, yet I've told you before that this man has a history of raising his voice in exacting reprimands. "A union official, or a union representative, should be able to conduct business at a school without the prospect of being verbally attacked by an administrator. When we're at the grievance table, or the bargaining table, we're equals. But where we come in as union representatives, we're still acting in the capacity of that contract, and that contract sets forth 'management' and it sets forth 'the teachers’. A teacher is subordinate to an administrator, and, therefore, teachers should have the protections of this contract.

"I think it’s in our grievance; we've asked for the relief that the principal issue a written apology to the grievant, and that the principal be reprimanded by the director for violating campaign neutrality and for the public reprimand. We were willing, we were trying, to hear this at Level II, but as I told you before, the events did not make this a Level II hearing. Thirty minutes before the Level II hearing,- inexplicably, the principal chose not to come. Therefore, I filed a Level III after waiting for two hours for people at this building to return my phone call. That's why we're at Level III. "So the burden now rests on your shoulders to make a decision and decide whether or not the contract has been violated and Ms. Gentry received an unjust and public reprimand. If you do decide that, I would move that you grant the relief that we're seeking--a written apology and a reprimand of the principal."

CLOSING STATEMENTS

(Continued)

Closing Statement by Respondent Mr. Moore made the Respondent's Closing Statement as follows: if s i

"Members of the Board, you can see we did not call our witness list this evening primarily because we didn't feel like there was any reason to. Our original statements that we provided concerning our positions hold true, and there was not any evidence presented on the part of the AFT to prove otherwise. "It appears the union is trying to draw some analogy between the reprimand and raising of one's voice. What we have presented this evening, though, is an indication by Dr. Walding and by the grievant where one is giving an indication that it occurred and the other is saying that it did not. And even under the direct examination by Mr. DeGiusti, Mr. Walding indicated that that did not occur and he responded to all of his questions without any problem. The union also attempts to equate the raising of one's voice with reprimand. And we question whether or not that that is true, given the fact that it's not the tone that causes many of us to react, but actually sometimes the words that are used. But, again, at no time has the union said that Mr. Walding ever, ever, rebuked Ms. Gentry; only that he raised his voice.

J I I

i. #308 ARTIAL RELIEF OUGHT GRANTED

"Another point that was raised that we feel like it is appropriate to react to, and that is that the union again tries to draw some connection between the poster and the reprimand. But, again, all that was indicated was an indication on the part of one person that the voice was raised. There was an attempt to say that others have reacted to that, however, none of those witnesses were produced here this evening. The only thing that we heard through testimony was some hearsay information. It has been our position all along that, procedurally, there were some concerns and even in the presentation of the case, those factors still remain. Therefore, we respectfully request that the grievance be denied."

Motion, Deliberation, Findings and Vote by the Board

Following discussion and additional questions of witnesses by members of the Board, Mrs. Donwerth made the motion, seconded by Mr. Prigmore, that the relief sought be that the principal issue a written apology to the grievant for the public reprimand.

SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT

Early Childhood Program for 1988-89 (Continued)

Schools; and authorization to submit applications to the State Department of Education for three state-funded four-year-old programs, including Fillmore (resubmittal for existing program), Telstar and Rockwood (new programs). The proposed budget listed an estimated start-up cost of approximately $18,000 for each of the two new daycare/preschool facilities (Ridgeview, Southern Hills).

Early Childhood Program Report Accepted (Continued)

Existing tuition-based programs are located at West Nichols Hills, Eugene Field, and Edwards; a state-funded program is located at Fillmore School. Mr. Bell stated the sites for the new programs were selected based upon a review of literature from the City/County Health Department and Department of Human Services, and a parent interest survey conducted at 14 elementary schools having suitable building space availability. Discussion Mr. Bell, Mr. Dick Samples, Capital Improvements Administrator; and Ms. Jessie Wesley Davis, Principal, Ridgeview Elementary School, responded to questions from members of the Board concerning the proposal. Mrs. Parks expressed concern that the interest surveys, which were used to select Telstar as the site for one of the state-funded programs, were not distributed at schools throughout the northeast area of the District, especially schools north of N. E. 23rd Street. She stated she supported programs that would benefit district students, but could not support the proposal because of the scope of the survey in District 5. Mr. Elgin and Mr. Prigmore also commented on the use of the interest survey at a few schools rather than a broad "need" survey.

Mrs. Hill stated the District had experienced some successful preschool/daycare programs, but that she disagreed with expending district funds at this time on the establishment of new program sites rather than on instructional or other materials for students in grades K-12; also, that she believed the start-up costs and payback period would exceed the estimates. She asked for an accounting of the cost to establish the new programs after their completion. Mrs. Donwerth said the Board had experienced difficulty, in the past, in determining the exact cost of preschool/daycare programs, but that she supported the expansion. Mrs. Floyd said she believed there was a need for expanded preschool/ daycare offerings, and that they would help attract people to the school district.

Ms. Ann Turner, AFT-OKC Representative, and Media Specialist, Grant High School, spoke concerning the annual summer audit of school activity funds. She suggested that asking financial secretaries to report to work during the summer constituted adding days or hours to the contract-defined working days of support personnel, and must be negotiated.

Ms. Diana Davis, Parent of Capitol Hill High School student, asked the Board to reconsider the transfer of the school's principal from Capitol Hill to Grant.

Mr. Elgin commented on finding alternate sources of labor for installing playground equipment. He also remarked on the positive impact that can be effected with the transfer of a good building administrator.

| Mrs. Parks suggested placing the "Board Members' Comments" section i of the agenda either at the beginning or end of each meeting only. In other remarks, she requested that administrative staff meet with s Ms. Ann Turner to resolve the issue she brought to the Board during j "Hearings". With respect to the individual who addressed the Board j about about the Capitol Hill principal transfer, she said she felt \ such changes were made in the interest of the school district and its policies and that administrators realize they may be moved within the district when there is a need.

Discussion of Purchasing Items The superintendent and administrative staff members responded to questions from Board members concerning purchasing items. Board members' specific requests for information and/or clarifying statements follow: Purchasing Item 1: Mr. Prigmore asked for an explanation of the items requested for Emerson School ($1,531.73 - part of the total purchases in item 1). Ms. Elizabeth Ennis, Director of High Schools, explained the purchases were for a new day care program, partially funded by the Gannett Foundation under a renewal grant (continuation of the clinic, which provides health services for the women students; and implementation of a day care center for their children). Ms. Velda George, Vocational Department, added that the licensed daycare center will, in addition to providing daycare for the children, provide training for the mothers in child care and careers in the child-care field.

Purchasing Item 5: Dr. Jeff Maddox, Director of Curriculum, answered questions from Mr. Prigmore and Mr. Hise about the cost of the Mary Mason reading materials. He said the materials have proven to be very worthwhile, and are used in all schools, but not in all classrooms (distributed on a teacher-request basis). Dr. Maddox will provide the Board with an accounting of the number of classrooms at each of the elementary schools using the Mary Mason reading materials. Purchasing Item 10: Mr. Hise and Mr. Prigmore questioned the validity of the "flat" back x-ray included as part of the pre-employment physical examination. Dr. Steller said staff would provide a report assessing the current exam and possibly recommending another approach.

Purchasing Item 13: Mr. Hise, Mr. Prigmore, and Mrs. Floyd expressed concern about computer purchases. Dr. Steller said staff could prepare an updated report on where the computers in the schools are located and how they are being used.

Following discussion, on roll call, the votes were as follows: Mrs. Hill, aye; Mr. Elgin, aye; Mr. Prigmore, aye; Mr. Hise, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye; Mrs. Floyd, aye. All aye.

EQUITY COMMITTEE ANNUAL REPORT

I Special Report ! | Dr. William Price-Curtis, Coordinator, Equity and Affirmative Action, introduced Reverend Gary Bender, Chairperson of the Equity Committee, to give the Committee's Annual Report (1987-88 school year). In his oral report, Reverend Bender stated during the year the committee had visited four elementary schools, five fifth grade centers, six middle schools, and nine high schools. He said, overall, the schools are equitable. This year, he said the Equity Committee also reviewed other district programs related to equity, such as the K-4 Interaction Plan, the Adopt-A-School program, and standardized test scores. He said the committee has "grave concerns" about the Interaction Plan; that the plan is unorganized and needs more staff attention. Reverend Bender stated other areas that will require extensive monitoring during 1988-89 include the | Adopt-A-School Program, standardized test scores, retention rates, and disciplinary procedures. (A copy of the written report is file in the Office of the Clerk.)

Special Staff Reports (a)

Introduction of New Administrator

Mr. Vern Moore, Executive Director of Personnel Services, introduced Dr. Susan Purser, new Director of the Planning, Research and Evaluation Department.

New Administrator Introduced

Dr. Purser introduced the Dropout Report and the Analyses on Planning Indicators and Achievement report. (b)

Dropout Report for the 1987-88 School Year

Ms. Maridyth McBee, Senior Research Associate, presented the report on dropouts for the 1987-88 school year. She stated that during 1987-88, 914 students were reported as dropouts, a decline of approximately one-third from the 1986-87 school year. Ms. McBee explained that two methods were used to calculate dropout rates: 1) longitudinal (starts with one grade cohort and follows that same group for a number of years); and 2) cross-sectional (only one year in perspective).

1987-88 Dropout Report

The longitudinal rate of dropouts for Oklahoma City Public Schools during 87-88 is 26.1%. The cross-sectional rate is 5.2%. Ms. McBee noted that even though the number of students dropping out is substantially lower than previous years, the demographics for both 86-87 and 87-88 are similar. She said for 1988-89 a task force will examine dropout prevention in the district. (A copy of the written report is on file in the Office of the Clerk.)

Dr. Steller pointed out that Capitol Hill High School's dropout rate had decreased the most during 87-88, due to a particular emphasis being placed on the issue at that school. He said the task force would be examining Capitol Hill's success, and that the task force's charge may also be expanded to deal with "at-risk" students. Ms. Liz Ennis, Director of High Schools, attributed the success to the human attention by the administrative team and teachers; a computerized attendance collection system; and a computerized calling system implemented during the last quarter of the school year. (c)

1987-88 Analyses on Planning Indicators and Achievement

Dr. John Crawford, Program Leader, Planning, Research and Evaluation Department, discussed the results of 1987-88 analyses on instructional environment indicators and achievement. He said the research was conducted with the school as the unit of analysis for the purpose of looking for factors related to achievement; and was done in an effort to come up with a list of indicators (measures) of the instructional environment which can be used to give feedback to principals and teachers, and then, hopefully, observe results in higher achievement in future years. (A copy of the written report is on file in the Office of the Clerk. •)

LEVEL III GRIEVANCE HEARING

Procedural Issues

MELVA COUSINS (Continued)

Mr. Huff raised the following procedural issues for the grievant:

Mr. Huff asked which rules were being used (the Board policy or the negotiated agreement). With respect to timelines set out in Board policy B-28 (formerly BDE), Hearing Procedures, revision date 5-16-88, Mr. Huff stated he had complied with contractual timelines with respect to filing, but felt he and the grievant he represented were not bound by the policy to submit exhibit and witness lists; also, that Mr. Mark Reed, Employee Relations Administrator, had already submitted copies of their exhibits from the Level II grievance with the respondentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s narrative. Mr. Huff stated the requirement concerning submission of exhibit and witness lists ten days prior to a hearing had not been negotiated for either the support or teachers contracts.

Mr. Day said the policy states that in the event of a conflict between the policy and negotiated agreements that negotiated agreements shall govern the hearing; that, generally, Policy BDE applies to all hearings; and that if there is not a conflict, the negotiated agreement is silent and there is a provision in the Board policy, then the provision in the Board policy shall rule. Concerning witness and exhibit lists, he said the Board had been provided with the Level II disposition which set forth the exhibits and the witnesses used at that level, constituting compliance with that rule. 2.

The respondent offered no exhibits at Level II, but five exhibits were included in the respondent's packet which was provided to the grievant and her representative.

Mr. Alexander stated the respondent was prepared to proceed with no exhibits, but might decide to use them during the hearing. Mr. Day said he would rule on the exhibits as each was raised. 3.

The grievant's representative received a notarized statement, dated July 5, 1988, from principal Beverly Story, which was not included in the original package containing the respondent's narrative and copies of exhibits. Mr. Huff stated the following concerns: 1) Principal Story will not be available for grievant's cross-examination; 2) her statement has no relevance to this year. Mr. Huff asked if Mrs. Cousins could have the opportunity to respond to that notarized statement at the time it was introduced. Mr. Day stated the procedural issue raised by the grievant was not done in compliance with the Board policy stating that the other party will give written notice; however, the administration had indicated they intended to call no witnesses. He said another provision in the policy states no witness or evidence not used at Level II can be used at Level III; therefore, although the grievant did not comply with that rule, the respondent would not be able to call witnesses or offer evidence at Level III.

Mr. Alexander follows: i.

raised

procedural

issues

for

the

respondent

Under the Board policy, the grievant has failed to present her issues in writing as required and, therefore, they cannot be presented. The grievant has the burden of going forward; if the grievant can only present a case through exhibits and/or witnessesand if they can present neither they have no case.

33 MINUTES OF MEETING OF JULY 11, 1988

LEVEL III GRIEVANCE HEARING

He stated the case should be dismissed because the grievant and her representative were not able to present any evidence in support of their position.

LEVEL III ' GRIEVANCE MELVA COUSINS (Continued)

In response, Mr. Huff stated he had delivered a letter to the Personnel office the previous week indicating he and Mrs. Cousins had complied with the contract and felt no need to submit additional exhibits or the witness list because the union had not agreed to the procedure.

Mr. Day recommended the Board overrule the motion to dismiss because the Level II disposition attached to the Level III grievance document set forth the names of witnesses and exhibits.

The grievant failed to conduct informal discussions with her immediate supervisor, Dr. Walding, prior to initiating the grievances in this case, as required under Article IV, Section 3, B, of the collective bargaining agreement between the Board and the ESE-OEA. Mr. Alexander asked that the grievance be dismissed for failure to adhere to the negotiated agreement.

Mr. Huff acknowledged that the grievant failed to conduct the informal discussion, but that the Level I was filed in accordance with the contract. He said his exhibits contained a note which showed an effort had been made to contact the principal to schedule an informal meeting. He stated if no decision is rendered because an informal discussion is not held, the grievant should not be prevented from filing at Level I. Mr. Alexander stated the initial letter of reprimand concerning Mrs. Cousins had been voluntarily withdrawn by Dr. Walding; that informal meetings would have been of value. Mr. Alexander stated Dr. Walding had a factual dispute with respect to Mrs. Cousins’ attempt to contact him for informal discussion. The issues raised in the grievance are moot. Under the disposition of Level II, three items of relief were requested: 1) a written apology from the principal for his actions of alleged retaliation; 2) the right to have a union representative with her during all meetings; and 3) priority choice for reassignment to another south-side school in the event that principal Walding is reassigned to Bodine. Mr. Alexander stated for relief sought in item 1, Dr. Walding had submitted a letter of apology for the perceptions she had which led her to file this grievance. He said relief sought in items 2 and 3 were "not Dr. Walding’s to give". Mr. Alexander asked for the proceedings to be dismissed with prejudice for the aforementioned reasons (procedural issues nos. 1, 2, and 3). Mr. Huff said the apology letter received from Dr. Walding was not accepted as an apology as was asked for in the grievance.

Mr. Day stated there was a factual dispute with regard to items 2 and 3. He recommended the respondent’s motion to dismiss items 2 and 3 be held in abeyance until the Board could hear the evidence and then decide on them.

j j | 1 | | !

With respect to the relief sought as listed in the Level III Grievance, Mr. Alexander pointed out that the Level II Statement of Grievance was amended to delete paragraph (b) under Statement of Grievance and Relief Sought because it was not heard at Level I. Mr. Huff maintained that the Level I "reprisal" grievances were combined in the appeal; that they did not voluntarily amend. Mr. Day stated there was a factual dispute concerning this issue.

MINUTES OF MEETING OF JULY 11, 1988

Mr. Prigmore made the motion, seconded by Mr. Hise, that 1) any evidence not introduced at Level II be denied introduction at Level III; 2) that respondentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s motion to dismiss be overruled; and 3) that the hearing at Level III proceed henceforth. Following discussion, on roll call, the votes were as follows: Mrs. Hill, aye; Mr. Elgin, aye; Mrs. Parks, abstain; Mr. Prigmore, aye; Mr. Hise, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye; Mrs. Floyd, aye.

R. #15 DECISIONS ON PROCEDURAL ISSUES

J i j RECESS

Mr. Alexander announced that during discussions between the grievant and respondents which took place during the recess, he believed a friendly resolution to the dispute was reached. The following settlement offer was made by the respondent: That for the purposes of settling this grievance, the parties agree as follows:

Dr. Walding affirms that prior to this hearing all reprimands have been retracted and there are presently no reprimands outstanding.

Mrs. Cousins will be transferred to the financial secretary position at Jefferson School at the same salary she is presently making.

Mrs. Cousins pending.

The parties and their representatives will be given the opportunity to meet with the Superintendent for a one hour meeting in which the grievant can express whatever concerns she has to present to the superintendent.

During discussion, Mr. Hise said he was concerned about whether the Board's making an assignment to another school conflicted with administrative procedures or Board policy. Dr. Steller stated it was the equivalent of an administrative transfer. Mr. Day stated the settlement was applicable to this case only; that there would be no binding precedent. Mrs. Donwerth made the following motion: I move that we follow the agreements made by both parties, the four items set out, and approve those. The motion was seconded by Mrs. Parks.

Mrs. Donwerth perfected her motion to reflect dismissal with prejudice: I move that we follow the agreements made by both parties, the four items set out, and approve those; and that the Board dismiss this grievance with prejudice.

MOTION TO ADD INTERNAL AUDITOR POSITION

Members of the Board and administrative staff discussed proposed position. A synopsis of the discussion follows:

the

Mrs. Donwerth and Mrs. Hill requested a job description. Mr. Hise presented information concerning the function of an internal auditor and where the position would be placed in the organizational structure. He stated the internal auditor would be a district employee who would report directly to the Board. He presented the following definition and description of duties (from Auditing Concepts and Standards by David N. Ricchiute):

The objective of internal auditing is to assist all members of management in the effective discharge of their responsibilities by furnishing them with analyses, appraisals, recommendations and pertinent comments concerning activities reviewed. Internal auditors are concerned with any phase of business activity in which they may be of service to management. This involves going beyond the accounting and financial records to obtain a full understanding of the operations under review.

Reviewing and appraising the soundness, adequacy and application of accounting, financial, and other operating controls and promoting effective control at a reasonable cost. Ascertaining the extent of compliance with established policies, plans and procedures. Ascertaining the extent to which company assets are accounted for and safeguarded from loss of all kinds. Ascertaining the reliability of management data developed within the organization. Appraising the quality of performance and carrying out assigned responsibilities. Recommending operating improvements.

Mr. Prigmore requested that the following letter be made a part of the minutes. The letter was amended to include two changes which read as follows:

"My intent and purpose is simple but lW>threef old: 1) Minimize costly errors and increase efficiency; 2) increase Board credibility and public trust; and 3) it acts as a deterrent to any behavior that would go beyond acceptable procedures, particularly in dealing with money. . . "

Arthur W. Steller, Superintendent 900 N. Klein Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73106 Re:

Internal Auditor

Dear Mr. Steller, As you are aware, I have voiced my opinion on numerous occasions that it is necessary for an organization as large and varied as our school district to have an internal auditing system other than the one currently in place. Further, that the system should be directed by a person with training, experience and expertise in the area of internal auditing. The person need not be and usually is not a certified public accountant (CPA).

My intent and purpose is simple but two-fold: 1) Minimize costly errors and increase efficiency and 2) Increase board credibility and public trust. This does not mean that the accounting system now in place and the personnel assigned those tasks are not doing a good job. It means we can do a better job and it is our intrusted purpose. As you have stated, we walk a tightrope on the issue of public opinion. That is precisely why we need an internal auditor. It will build public,trust and confidence in the board of education. The objective of internal auditing is to assist all members of management in the effective discharge of their responsibilties by furnishing them with analysis, recommendations and pertinent comments concerning activities reviewed. The internal auditor's primary function among several would be to ascertain the extent to which the districts assets are accounted for and safeguarded from losses of all kinds.

In order to be effective, the internal auditor must be objective. And in order to be objective, the auditor must be independent. Thus internal auditors should report to an organizational level above the levels audited which in our case

would be the board and the superintendent. The auditor must not be put into a position of conflict of interest between making policy and having to implement it. Auditors are appraisers and as such serve to improve the organization they appraise. If, in fact, they are nothing but supervisors and/or trainers of financial secretaries, then that is the fault of the person hired or unwarranted restrictions placed on them by the Board and Superindent. Failure is usually planned. External auditors cannot and will not improve organizational or operational functions. Their sole purpose is to conduct "opinion audits" of financial statements. This function is important and must be retained. However, because the very nature of such an audit is general and not specific, organizational efficiency and increased board credibility will not be greatly enhanced, if at all.

Because our school district is internal auditor can step in and in However, I would urge this board to authorize the hiring of an internal and experienced in such tasks.

Mr. Prigmore pointed out that major internal auditing activities are activities which any large organization should carry out in some manner to some degree. He stated an internal auditor does not determine policy; rather, the internal auditor determines whether financial activities are being carried out according tÂŠ established policies and procedures.

GENERAL BUSINESS 2.

Internal Auditor Position (Continued) Mr. Elgin spoke in support of the internal auditor position as a prudent business practice, and said that the function of an internal auditor is to make recommendations concerning functional, operational efficiency. He commented that he had spoken earlier in the day with representatives of Price Waterhouse, the district's external auditing firm, who were complimentary of the district staff with respect to the external audit.

j INTERNAL AUDITOR POSITION DISCUSSION (Continued)

Mrs. Parks stated she supported the internal auditor position because of the words, "independence and credibility". Mrs. Floyd reported on a discussion she had with a CPA concerning the function of an internal auditor. She said an internal auditor would need to be a full-time person who would do tests and audits on specialized areas, check on the use of funds and possibly reduce the cost of the external audit. Mrs. Floyd requested information and opinions from staff concerning the need for an internal auditor as a "management tool". Mr. Hise pointed out that an internal auditor is a certified, licensed individual. Mr. Elgin offered the seconded by Mrs. Hill:

following substitute motion,

which was

Add an internal auditor, as that position is known in common business practice, to test and audit the efficiency and financial operation of the district, which position reports to the Board of Education, with an initial salary not to exceed $35,000 annually, and with a specific job description to be developed by the administration at the direction of the external auditing firm.

R. #27 APPROVAL TO ADD INTERNAL AUDITOR POSITION

Mr. Elgin stated it was his intent for the word "financial" to include "anything of valueâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;hard value". On roll call, the votes were as follows: Mrs. Hill, aye; Mr. Elgin, aye; Mrs. Parks, aye; Mr. Prigmore, aye; Mr. Hise, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye; Mrs. Floyd, aye. All aye.

She suggested that upon certification by the County Election Board, the person elected should be seated the first Monday following the certification.

UNFINISHED BUSINESS 1.

Board Policies The Board continued its discussion of Board policies (continued from Special Meeting of August 1, 1988, which convened at 5:00 p.m.). Some additional revisions were made before final approval.

BOARD POLICY REVIEW

Mr. Prigmore reviewed the revisions to Policy J-15, Student Conduct. He said he felt the Board believes there are better ways to discipline students other than by using corporal punishment, and that the change as proposed set in motion what he hoped would be the eventual abolishment of corporal punishment in the district. He pointed out that the change would require parents who desire corporal punishment to request it (in writing) rather than requesting that it not be administered, as the policy was previously written.

Mr. Prigmore read the portion of the policy dealing with corporal punishment which was revised as follows: "The Board recognizes that corporal punishment is not generally an effective educational tool. However, reasonable corporal punishment may be necessary in some cases. Reasonable corporal punishment which is without excessive force and which is administered judiciously: a) a parent or legal guardian who wishes corporal punishment administered to his/her child shall notify the principal of the school in writing annually. b) Teachers are not to administer corporal punishment except with permission and in the presence of an administrator. c) Prior to administering corporal punishment, the administrator shall contact the parent or guardian to inform them of the offense and the penalty."

MINUTES OF REGULAR MEETING OF AUGUST 1, 1988

HEARINGS

Ms. Ruth B. Dunn, Capitol Hill High School patron, said she and many other parents did not understand the policy under which their previous principal was transferred to another school.

Ms. Sandy Cole, Capitol Hill High School patron, expressed concern about the school's plans for the next five years in light of the principal's transfer.

Mr. John Cole, Capitol Hill High School patron, asked the Board to reconsider the decision to transfer the principal.

HEARINGS

Dr. Steller stated he had met with some Capitol Hill parents earlier in the day, and that the comments made by parents about the principal were commendable. He stated that from a district-wide perspective, the district needs to capitalize on the strengths of all the principals.

Mr. Hise commented that Dr. Williams had developed a unique relationship with the school's students and their parents, and suggested reconsideration of the transfer decision.

BOARD MEMBERSâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;

COMMENTS

Mrs. Hill commented on an article she read recently, entitled; "Do Education and Politics Mix?". On another matter, Dr. Steller affirmed for Mrs. Hill that high school students have the opportunity to select teachers during the enrollment process. Mrs. Hill requested a report on the expenses incurred in starting up the preschool and daycare programs at the new locations, and a report on the /I/D/E/A/ program.

BOARD MEMBERS' COMMENTS

Mr. Elgin commented that the individuals who spoke earlier in the meeting about corporal punishment represented a real resource to the Board. He asked for a task force or other official group to address the district's discipline issue. Mr. Elgin said he had met recently with the new president of the Oklahoma City Chamber of Commerce. He offered to help make arrangements for a reception to introduce the School Board to Chamber members.

To the Capitol Hill High School patrons, Mr. Prigmore said he wasn't sure of the reason for the principal's transfer other than just following past practice. He said he had been assured by staff that this particular regulation would be reviewed. Mrs. Donwerth explained to the group that administration, rather than the Board, is responsible for administrative transfers and certain other personnel matters. Mrs. Floyd thanked the patrons for their support of Dr. Williams, and discussed the history of, and rationale for, the regulation dealing with principal transfers.

EXECUTIVE SESSION Mrs. Hill made the motion, seconded by Mrs. Donwerth, that the Board go into Executive Session for a discussion of the following:

General

Counsel,

reported

current

| Oklahoma Electrical Supply Co. v. 1-89 & Collins-Soter Engineering | "The plaintiff’s attorney took the deposition of our project engineer, George Soter, last Friday here in Oklahoma City. The [ deposition took about five hours, but it went very well so far as | the district’s interests are concerned." ? 1-89 v. Virginia Miller

| "We have our settlement conference scheduled for this Wednesday at j 10:00 a.m. before Judge Meyers. I believe Mrs. Floyd, and possibly { Mr. Prigmore, are going to attend that."

Dowell v. 1-89

I "We have oral arguments scheduled in Salt Lake City before the Tenth i Circuit on September 6. That’s the date of our next Regular \ Meeting. I will be in Salt Lake City on the 6th to present that I argument. $

| "An interesting development in the Dowell case: you’ll remember I | reported a while back that the Justice Department had filed an I application to participate in the oral argument and also to extend arguments from 15 to 20 minutes.

R. #70 SUPERINTENDENT1S REPORT ACCEPTED

/I/D/E/A/ School Improvement Study Report Ms. Elizabeth Ennis, Director of High Schools, and Ms. Maridyth McBee, Senior Research Associate, reported on a pilot school improvement project in which nine schools participated during 1986-87. Ms. Ennis reported that school improvement training was continued during 1987-88, with 38 school facilitator teams (principal, parent, teacher) receiving training. During 1988-90, facilitator teams from the balance of the district schools will be trained. Ms. Ennis stated some of the basic premises of the /I/D/E/A/ program: that the school is the key unit of change, and as each school improves, so improves the total district; that substantive change can take 3-5 years; and that positive climate in a school is absolutely necessary for success. Ms. McBee discussed the findings of the pilot study. She stated she was convinced of the merits of the program and recommended that the district continue to support it. (A copy of the report is on file in the Office of the Clerk.)

Mrs. Hill commented that not disrupting ongoing school improvement programs should be considered when making decisions to move principals. Mrs. Parks stated she had enjoyed participating in the program at Douglass High School last year, and that it brought unity from the alumni, teachers, and students. Mr. Elgin and Mr. Prigmore said they had enjoyed â&#x20AC;˘) their experiences with the program; and Mrs. Floyd also expressed support for the program.

| LEGAL REPORT ? Attorney’s Report

ATTORNEY 1S REPORT

| Mr. Ronald Day, as follows:

General Counsel,

reported on current legal matters

ISD-89 v. Virginia Miller

I "On August 17, Mrs. Floyd and I appeared for the settlement conference in the District Court of Oklahoma County before Judge Meyers. The defendant, Mrs. Miller, did not appear, so a whole lot could not be accomplished at that time. Mrs. Floyd and I did briefly convey our position to Judge Meyers. He indicated that he ® would confer with the trial judge to whom the case is assigned, and I they would contact Mrs. Miller and attempt to determine her | position, and then get back in touch with us. However, I have not heard back from Judge Meyers as of this date. Lincoln School Property

"In the Lincoln School matter, we have still not heard back from the City Attorney’s office on the status of the lease/purchase agreement. I called Mr. Brummett just before the holiday, and he was out. I haven’t had a chance to talk to him, so I don't know the rationale for that. It's my understanding Dr. Steller has also made contact with the City Manager’s office seeking to move that along.

Oklahoma Electrical Supply Company v. Collins-Soter and 1-89

"During the week of the 22nd, the attorneys for Joe Soter and our firm deposed two employees of Oklahoma Electrical Supply: their estimator, the individual who did the estimates for the original bids on the electrical contracts, Mr. Aboujeib; and Mr. Steve Young, the vice president of the company. Each of those depositions took about a day. Although those witnesses were witnesses for the plaintiff, I don't believe their testimony jeopardized our position at all.

118

MINUTES OF REGULAR MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 6, 1988

LEGAL REPORT Attorney's Report (Continued)

Dowell v. 1-89

ATTORNEY'S REPORT (Continued)

"I just returned from Salt Lake City to present the oral argument on behalf of the Board before the Tenth Circuit in the Dowell case. As you probably know, the Tenth Circuit is comprised of a number of circuit judges, however, all those judges don't hear each case—they assign a certain number. We were assigned to Division 2, and we had three judges. To give you a little background, we had Circuit Judge Moore from Denver; Judge Stephanie Seamoor, who you may be familiar with from Tulsa; and then we were also assigned to Judge Baldock from New Mexico. He's the most recent appointee by the Reagan Administration to the Tenth Circuit. "As I reported earlier, each side was limited to twenty minutes, which is really not a whole lot of time to discuss a case of this importance and involving issues of this magnitude. At the outset it was very obvious that the court viewed this as a very important case, a case of very important issues which they were genuinely concerned about.

"Mr. Chachkin appeared for the plaintiff. He represents the NAACP legal defense fund out of New York City. He probably got a paragraph of his presentation out before they started asking questions, and he really didn't finish--it just was a session of questions and answers from that point forward; very pointed questions. I was able to present a little bit more of my argument, but I also received questions like that. The court, for example, asked Mr. Chachkin why the plaintiffs didn't appeal the 1977 unitary finding; asked the plaintiffs how many years they felt that the Oklahoma City School Board should be under a compulsory desegregation plan before the decree could be dissolved. They had questions, for example, about whether or not racial steering, which may in some part result in residential segregation, is a vestige of the prior illegal desegregation that occurred in the city; and they had questions about what we felt the scope of a school board's duty is to accomplish desegregation and how far that duty must go—in other words, is it limited to the schools or does it go out into the neighborhoods to require action to desegregate neighborhoods. So they had a lot of very serious and concerned questions.

"Neither one of us got to present the total argument that we had prepared to give. But I feel that through our briefs and through the arguments we presented that we did get all the pertinent facts and the legal issues and the pertinent law from the Supreme Court before the Tenth Circuit to consider. "I learned while I was up there that they also have another similar case pending out of Denver—it's a by-product of the original Keyes case. That case is now pending with reference to decision on a unitary finding. I understand the issues may be somewhat similar. Originally, I thought that we could expect a decision within the normal period of time, which is 30-90 days, but the Keyes case has not yet been set for argument and there may be a chance that they want to hold off and give a little more thought to this decision so it will coincide with a ruling in Keyes. It may be a little bit longer than 90 days before we get our ruling from the Tenth Circuit on the case."

119 MINUTES OF REGULAR MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 6, 1988

SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT R. #8 9 SUPERINTENDENT' S REPORT #1-4 ACCEPTED

Following presentation of staff reports and discussion, Mrs. Hill made the motion, seconded by Mrs. Donwerth, for acceptance of the Superintendent's Report, items 1-4 as shown. On roll call, the votes were as follows: Mrs. Hill, aye; Mr. Elgin, aye; Mrs. Parks, aye; Mr. Prigmore, aye; Mr. Hise, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye; Mrs. Floyd, aye. All aye. Mrs. Floyd declared the motion carried. Slide Presentation

The Board viewed a "back to school" slide presentation produced by Ms. Colleen Smith and Graphics Department staff. The slides showed scenes of students in the first few days of school, set to the song, "Thank God for Kids". Representative I 2. Authorized to | File for Federal Funds j

General Counsel,

reported on current legal matters

Lincoln School Property

"The City Attorneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office sent the proposed lease/purchase agreement to the counsel for the School of Science and Mathematics--that's the State Attorney General's office. I received a call from a young man in that office within the last ten days or so. He had a few minor questions, just wanting information about why certain clauses were in the agreement. He didn't find any major objections with it. "On the local level, the administration is in the process of updating the appraisals for that property. Also, Kim Robinson is assisting Don Price with preparing specifications for the public sale offering of the property. "

Oklahoma Electrical Supply Company v. Collins-Soter and 1-89 "In the OESCO case, one of our district employees, Mr. Dick Samples, was deposed by the plaintiff's attorney on September 21. Dick underwent approximately four hours of extensive cross examination in the case, but he did a very fine job on behalf of the district. This coming Wednesday, October 12, plaintiff's counsel will be deposing Lynn Lockwood, who is an employee of the co-defendant in the case, Collins-Soter Engineering. "

Special Staff Reports (a)

Asbestos Management Plan Deadline

Dr. Jack Isch, Director of Support Operations, discussed an application for the district to defer the AHERA deadline; an extension of the deadline for the district's asbestos inspections and development of a management plan, originally due October 12, 1988. He reported that all on-site inspections have been completed and all of the bulk samples are at the laboratory; however, the results of the laboratory tests are needed before the management plan can be completed. Dr. Isch said a provision in the law allows for a request for an extension. He requested Board authorization to submit an application for deferral until May 9, 1989 for completing the management plan. (b)

Personal Planning Power Resource Book Mr. Ken Lease, Administrator of Guidance, Counseling, and Secondary Academic Achievement, reported on a new document for high school students called Personal Planning Powerâ&#x2122;Ś The resource book was produced by district staff to assist students, parents and staff members in planning and making decisions concerning post secondary education. Some of what the document contains are: a listing of over 100 scholarships; provisions for students to include important personal information that will be used on various applications; and extensive information on the "language" of higher education admissions and financing. The books were distributed to students who attended "College Night" held on October 5, 1988. Additional copies will be printed to make enough available for all high school students.*

During discussion, members of the Board expressed opposition to the federal requirement which mandates that public school districts must administer federal funds for private schools (comments related to item 3).

R. #129 GENERAL BUSINESS ITEMS 1-4 AND 6-12 APPROVED

Discussion - Item 5 (Inhouse asbestos abatement crew) Mr. Hise remarked that the district needed to stop dealing with asbestos removal efforts on a "piece meal" basis and find a solution to the asbestos problem. Dr. Steller responded that finalizing the management plan would address the issue of priorities, but that, ultimately, the long term solution is a bond issue. He said until a bond issue is passed the district will need to continue to expend funds as needed to deal with immediate problems. Mr. Elgin said he was concerned about the long-term liability associated with having an inhouse asbestos abatement crew; that it could be regarded as a hidden cost which should be assessed. He suggested that Dr. Isch compare the monthly cost for 1) an ongoing inhouse crew and 2) ongoing contracted services.

By consensus, the Board agreed to defer consideration of item until the next regular meeting of the Board (October 24, 1988).

Authorization to Locate Oil Well Near School Approval of an agreement with Park Avenue Exploration Corporation to permit authorization for an oil well to be located on private property approximately 700 feet from Rancho Village Elementary School.

Hearings on 5 Policy G-28____ j

Four persons addressed the Board as follows:

Board Policy G-28, Staff Development, as approved on August 1, 1988, was included in the Board agenda for discussion and consideration.

Hearings on Policy G-28

Mr. Jack Nichols, AFT Representative, urged the Board to return to the original staff development policy which called for 75 staff development points in a five-year period, rather than 125 as contained in the revised policy approved on August 1, 1988. Mr. Nichols gave Mrs. Floyd a petition signed by teachers from 22 schools requesting a return to the 75 point requirement. (Note: Following discussion of Policy G-28, the petition was withdrawn.)

Mr. Paul Shasteen, Teacher, discussed teacher morale, the 125 point requirement, and the extra cost involved for teachers to obtain an additional 50 staff development points.

Ms. Rikki Abrams, Chairperson, Staff Development Advisory Committee, stated that the Advisory committee met on September 27, 1988 and voted to increase the point requirement to a compromise of 100 points per five year cycle. She said after a review of a teacher survey, on October 5 that action was rescinded and the committee voted to return to the original 75 point requirement and a return to having 11 teachers on the committee versus 9 to which “it was reduced in the revised policy. Ms. Abrams asked the Board to involve the committee in these types of

Ms. Ann Turner, President, Oklahoma City Federation of Teachers, spoke about the committee process in the district, and the changes in the Staff Development Policy. She objected to the "minority report" submitted to the Board by administrative members of the advisory committee; and commented that on most district committees teachers are in the minority.

Members of the Board discussed the advisory committee meetings and the change in staff development point requirement with Ms. Abrams and other administrative staff members. During discussion, Mr. Prigmore stated he did not feel 125 points was too much, but believed if changes were going to be made they should be made by first obtaining input from the committee. He suggested the Board rescind Policy G-28 as currently written and discuss changes during May, 1989, when the annual Staff Development Plan is discussed.

Mr. Prigmore made a motion, seconded by Mrs. Parks, to rescind the current Policy G-28 and return to the original policy as it was on May 2, 1988. Mrs. Donwerth suggested that Policy G-28 should include the statement, "Any substantive changes in the staff development policy or plan will be made only after input is received from the Staff Development Advisory Committee." Mr. Hise asked if the union's objection to appointing members to district committees would affect the Staff Development Advisory Committee. Dr. Steller responded that members of the Staff Development Advisory Committee were already appointed, but the matter was still an issue with respect to other committees.

Mrs. Floyd commented that the Board was concerned about teachers having input. She said she was concerned that the advisory committee had unanimous agreement on the compromise of 100 staff development points at one time, but the second time it was voted on the vote was 6-5 (in favor of 75 points), and there were four people absent. Mrs. Parks said she realized that professional growth was a continuous process and that teachers must have some input. She made the following statement: "I really feel that the committee perhaps needs to go back and really come back to the Board with a consensus of the Staff Development Committee. If that is not possible to do, then I feel that the 75 points should remain intact." Mr. Elgin moved, seconded by Mrs. Hill, to amend the original motion to require 85 staff development points rather than 75. Following additional discussion, Mr. Elgin withdrew his motion.

On roll call for the motion as originally stated, the votes were as follows: Mrs. Hill, aye; Mr. Elgin, aye; Mrs. Parks, aye; Mr. Prigmore, aye; Mr. Hise, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye; Mrs. Floyd, aye. All aye. Mrs. Floyd declared the motion carried.

UNFINISHED BUSINESS

R. #142 ASBESTOS CREW ESTABLISHED: APPROVAL OF TWO ASBESTOS REMOVAL PROJECTS

Asbestos Abatement Mr. Prigmore made the motion, seconded by Mrs. Parks, for approval to expend funds in an amount not to exceed $75,000 for equipment and supplies necessary to perform asbestos abatement tasks using district personnel. (Expenses to be charged to account G1220.03.) Also, approval to employ six full-time craftspersons, thus establishing an inhouse asbestos abatement crew. (The first project to be accomplished is the abatement of approximately 11,000 sq. ft. of asbestos ceiling material, generally located in the west portion of the building at Heronville. A follow-up project will be the abatement of the ceilings in the band and vocal music rooms at Grant High School.) Salaries of craftspersons to be charged to Building Levy Fund.

| I | j §

I §

Mr. Prigmore stated he supported the recommendation because the safety of the district’s children came first, but felt asbestos-related choices being given to the Board were limited. He urged administration to develop a comprehensive long-term plan for asbestos abatement. Mr. Hise expressed concern about extra costs involved (salary, liability, equipment) with an inhouse crew versus contracting for abatement services. Dr. Jack Isch, Director of Support Operations, said proposed labor cost of $145,000 will come from the building levy; proposed equipment and supplies in the amount of $75,000 will come from the general fund.

Mrs. Hill said she felt the recommendation should have presented as three separate items.

been

Regarding the nature of the Grant and Heronville asbestos problems, Dr. Isch explained that the tunnel at Grant was clear of asbestos, and the asbestos in the vocal music and band rooms would be removed, but that the auditorium ceiling also contains asbestos (still in good condition, however). At Heronville, he said that, like at Grant and other sites, only the asbestos that is in a damaged condition is being removed at this time. Dr. Isch said a preliminary report completed in December 1987 was available for use in planning. He said management plan to be submitted to the State is due May 9, 1989, but may be completed before that time. On roll call, the votes were as follows: Mrs. Hill, aye; Mrs. Parks, aye; Mr. Prigmore, aye; Mr. Hise, aye; Mrs. Donwerth, aye; Mrs. Floyd, aye. All aye. Mrs. Floyd declared the motion carried.

During discussion, Mr. Prigmore stated, "Because of problems that divide the board, it would be imperative upon the board not to be drug through the politics of appointment, but rather to allow the 70 days to run and allow the people of the district to vote for their candidate and let them make the decision." Mr. Prigmore asked that the Board's attorney advise as to when the 70-day period begins and if the Board must go through the process of appointment. Mrs. Parks stated she supported Mr. Prigmore's position. She said if the Board did not fill the vacancy, the matter would be taken care of by an election as provided in the law. Ms. Robinson, Associate General Counsel, explained that school law provides that any vacancy occurring on the board shall be filled by the Board for the balance of any unexpired term; that these positions should be filled by appointment; however, the law provides that if no decision to appoint can be made within a 70-day period, a special election will be called.

Mrs. Floyd said she felt the Board should attempt to fill the seat, and not leave that area of the district without a representative. On roll call, the votes were as follows: Mrs. Hill, aye; Mrs. Parks, no; Mr. Prigmore, no; Mr. Hise, no; Mrs. Donwerth, aye; Mrs. Floyd, aye. Three aye, three no. Mrs. Floyd declared the motion failed.

LEGAL AND FINANCIAL REPORTS

ATTORNEY'S REPORT

Attorney1s Report

Ms. Kimberly Robinson, Associate current legal matter as follows:

General

Counsel,

reported

Oklahoma Industries Authority v. Joe Barnes and Jan Cartwright "I received a call from Lana Tyree, making a request that the Oklahoma City Public School District participate in an amicus curiae brief to be filed by her office in the case of Oklahoma Industries Authority v. Joe Barnes and Jan Cartwright. An amicus brief is a 'friend of the court' brief. That's a brief filed by parties that were not immediate parties to the court action, but parties that are interested, nonetheless, in the outcome of the case.

"She advised that the State Supreme Court recently held in the Oklahoma Industries Authority case that properties held by public trusts in the State of Oklahoma are not subject to taxation. The effect of this, she advises, is that a great deal of commercial property is being taken off the tax rolls. An example that she cited was Remington Park. This will, of course, have an adverse impact on school finance state-wide. "Ms. Tyree's office has briefed this issue in the past, and sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s asking this district to participate. She feels that the more school districts participating, of course, the greater weight it will carry with the court. Some of the other school districts that are participating thus far are Western Heights, Tulsa, Edmond, Moore, Millwood, Putnam Heights, and the OEA is joining in, also. She did say that there would be no cost to the District to participate in this filing.

"I discussed it with Dr. Steller, and Ms. Tyree spoke with Dr. Steller, also. We thought this would be an appropriate matter to bring before the Board. It is the recommendation of the counsel that the Board vote to participate in this amicus brief to be filed in this matter. I think, also, that this is an item that might properly be considered under 'New Business' because it was not known at the time of posting."

Procedural Issues 1)

Ann Turner, grievant's representative, objected to the associate general counsel representing the respondent. She said the contract, page 7, (j), states that the respondent and grievant are responsible for the payment of their own representatives and witnesses involved in any formal grievance hearing; that since the District pays the salary of the attorney representing Mrs. Davis, that she could not represent Mrs. Davis. Ms. Robinson responded that such representation was a part of her assigned duties as associate general counsel. Ruling:

The objection was overruled.

The respondent's representative stated that she had submitted documents for the respondent according to Board Policy B-28, but had not received the grievant's exhibit or witness lists prior to the meeting. The grievant's representative responded that the exhibit and witness list had been submitted to the Board Clerk; that they had not provided multiple copies in the past, and they were not aware of this requirement.

Ruling: In an appeal, the procedures set up by the administrative or appellate body should be followed. However, as there were no objections from the Board, and the respondent's representative waived any formal objection, the hearing officer ruled that the hearing could proceed with the list given. |

SPECIAL BUSINESS Summary of Opening Statements

Grievant: Mr. Nichols stated he would show unjustly reprimanded and unjustly disciplined.

that Ms.

Gray was

Respondent: Ms. Robinson stated her evidence would show that the conversation which led to the complaint (between the principal and the teacher) did not rise to the level of a reprimand, formal or informal; that any relief sought should be denied.

Summary of Testimony Grievant's witnesses: (Holly Gray and Marilyn Davis) Ms. Gray testified that on September 21, 1988, she had worn designer jeans to school; that Ms. Davis told her she may go home and change clothes; and that she feared repercussions if she refused to comply. She also testified that it was her opinion there were instances when the wearing of jeans was acceptable dress for a teacher, including the day in question when she intended to hang pictures. Ms. Gray and Ms. Davis both testified they found no reference to a "dress code" in either the negotiated agreement or Board Policies. Ms. Davis read a portion of the "Linwood Elementary School Policies" entitled, "Professional Dress", which includes jeans as attire not projecting a professional image. Respondent's witness: (Marilyn Davis) Ms. Davis testified that the teaching staff was made aware of the school policies prior to the beginning of the school year. She described the conversation with Ms. Gray which took place in her office at approximately 7:50 a.m. on September 21. She testified that no one else was present at the time, that the situation was not discussed with any other person, and that Ms. Gray returned to school about 8:20 a.m. Ms. Davis stated that she did not reprimand the teacher verbally, nor did she prepare any written reprimands for the teacher's personnel file. Ms. Davis explained that the school "policies" used by Linwood School were developed informally by a group of 8-10 principals. She said she felt the section on professional dress was written in such a way that teachers clearly understood what was and what was not considered professional dress. She also testified that earlier in the school year another teacher had worn jeans to school, and that teacher was asked not to wear them to school in the future. A five-minute recess was declared at the conclusion of questioning.

Summary of Closing Statements

Grievant: Mr. Nichols stated teacher dress should be left to the professional judgment of the teacher; that a dress code had not been established by principals; and that such a code should be negotiated. He said the teacher would have been guilty of insubordination had she not gone home to change clothes when asked. He asserted that the grievant was unjustly reprimanded and unjustly disciplined.

Respondent: Ms. Robinson stated the issue in this matter was not dress code, but whether or not the teacher was reprimanded and whether or not the teacher was disciplined. She said the grievant defied the principal's rightful authority and disregarded the principal's rules. She said insulted or hurt feelings are not grievable; and that the evidence showed there was no reprimand or discipline.

Respondent: Ms. Robinson stated the basis for the termination was that Ms. Agbaje failed to report to work for three or more consecutive days without notification or authorization from her supervisor, in violation of the Collective Bargaining Agreement with the Education Support Employees (ESE-OEA). She said the appellant was not at work for six consecutive work days; and that the District utilized progressive or corrective discipline with this employee, counselled with her over a period of time, and she has been disciplined.

Appellant: Mr. Moore said Ms. Agbaje maintains that she called the control room and informed her supervisor, Mr. Besaw, that she would not be in and she gave him the reasons. He said termination was unfair since she did report.

Termination Hearing - Kathleen Agbaje (Continued)

Summary of Testimony Respondent's witness:

Raymond Randle

Mr. Randle testified concerning Ms. Agbaje's absence for which her dismissal was recommended. Mr. Randle stated he was Mr. Harvey Besaw's immediate supervisor, who was on bereavement leave and not available to testify. Mr. Randle testified that the Significant Event Report dated October 24, 1988, recomÂ mending immediate termination, was not signed by Ms. Agbaje because she was unavailable. He said he later discovered she had been incarcerated. He testified that Mr. Besaw told him that Ms. Agbaje called him at home to say that she would not be able to come to work without explanation as to why. Mr. Moore stated Ms. Agbaje contends that she used her two available phone calls to call the control room and Mr. Besaw to let him know what had happened.

The appellant called no witnesses. Summary of Closing Statements

Â§ I I

Respondent: Ms. Robinson said Ms. Agbaje failed to report to work for six consecutive days, five of those days without any notice. She said the District has utilized progressive and corrective discipline with this employee over a period of at least one year. She said the appellant has effectively abandoned her position and her employment should be terminated.

Appellant: Mr. Moore said that prior to the incident in question, Ms. Agbaje was well aware of the critical status of her employment and knew that three consecutive days of absence without notice was cause for dismissal. He said she was so concerned about her job that she made an error in judgement, using her two phone calls to call the control room and Mr. Besaw rather than calling even her family or an attorney.

Elementary Schools Thinking Skills Consortium

Dr. Carolyn Hughes, Assistant Superintendent, Curriculum and Program Development, and Mr. Richard Danner, Principal, Stonegate Elementary School, presented a report on the ASCD Elementary Thinking Skills Consortium the school has been involved in over the past 18 months. At consortium meetings, teams from around the country had the opportunity to share and receive information which included overviews of programs being implemented by colleges and cooperating schools, work being done by groups of educators in conjunction with regional labs and professional organizations, techniques for implementing change, and ways of evaluating student growth and thinking skills. Stonegate is involved in an ongoing process of helping teachers to develop strategies that will enable them to incorporate thinking skills into lesson activities throughout the school day. The Board viewed a video tape of a fourth-grade science class at Stonegate, taught by Joan Ruble, demonstrating the use of thinking skills.

Special Staff Reports (Continued) (a)

Ms. Elizabeth Ennis presented an update report on the /I/D/E/A/ (Institute for the Development of Educational Activities) program. She stated the program is based on belief that those closest to the school (parents, teachers and administrators) should be part of making decisions about how that school will improve. Commitment and "ownership" then provide increased success. Ms. Ennis emphasized some of the basic assumptions of the program, including: 1) the belief that the process takes 3-5 years to implement, developing a process of decision-making which becomes institutionalized in the system; and 2) that the best team of facilitators should be a key parent, a principal and a teacher. Ms. Glendora Sykes, Parent Facilitator, Dewey Elementary School; and Ms. Roxie McBride, Principal, Buchanan Elementary School, shared their insights and discussed their experiences with the school improvement program.

He said the panel has looked at the District's athletic program in detail and discussed ways to increase the competitiveness of the teams. He recommended the employment of a full-time district athletic director; asked for the job description to be prepared based on the recommendations of the panel; asked that the superintendent submit his recommendations for securing sufficient funds from the current budget or next year's budget to pay the salary of the athletic director; and requested that job descriptions for building athletic directors, head coaches and assistant coaches be upgraded and revised according to the recommendations submitted in the panel's report #2.

"The Board minutes of December 5 do not reflect my comments nor the intent of those comments. While I understand brevity and expediency do play a vital part in consolidating comments, I do not want the comments that I'm making tonight to be edited or deleted. I make this statement now because we are attempting to approve the previous minutes of the last meeting and I need to make some corrections and some observations.

"At the last Board meeting I prefaced my statement by saying, 'for the record', Dr. Steller, I'm returning this report for you to return it to the individual who submitted it to you for a more complete report, including all of the information I requested several months ago. I further stated that I wanted that report returned to me by Noon, Wednesday, December the 7th. I also stated during that time that, at the expense of being professional and not wanting to embarrass anyone, I would not call the names of those persons who appeared to be negligent in failing to give accurate and complete information requested by me, a Board member. So, for clarification, it was

He said he realized that merit pay is a negotiable item, and, therefore, asked to have input and involvement from staff.

Affirmative Action Report Dr. Bill Price-Curtis, Equity/Af f irmative Action Officei; reviewed the 1988-89 Affirmative Action Report. In summary, he stated the current plan is based upon a governmental procedure which comes from the U. S. Department of Labor's Office of Federal Contracts Compliance. He said in surveying the workforce for underutilization of protected individuals, it was found that minorities were not underutilized; however, voluntary goals were established for members of minority groups and the goal was put at a 5% increase for positions in professional categories. Females were found to be underutilized in grounds and maintenance and in skilled crafts, and appropriate goals were established for females. (A copy of the report will be kept on file in the Office of the Board Clerk for five years as authorized by O.S. 70-5-122.) Dr. Price-Curtis responded to questions from members of the Board. In response to a question from Mr. Prigmore concerning recruiting of minorities, Dr. Price-Curtis stated that Dr. Ramona Paul, Human Resources Administrator, was currently assisting Linda Brown, Certified Personnel Administrator, in that endeavor.

Mrs. Parks asked what percentage of black minorities had been employed in "upper management" positions in the District since Dr. Price-Curtis had been Equity/Affirmative Action Administrator. Dr. Price-Curtis said he would research it and provide that information at a later date. Mrs. Parks said it was her opinion that minorities are being underutilized in administrative positions; that of 58 elementary school administrators, only 17 are black administrators. She asked for information concerning Dr. Paul's efforts in recruiting minorities. She also stated that she was going to hold Dr. Steller accountable for providing the information she said she had requested three months earlier from Mr. Moore, Executive Director, Personnel Services, by noon on Wednesday, December 21, 1988. She stated she had asked for the information three times, but had not received it in the form she desired.

High School Academic Program Task Force Report and High School Curriculum

Task Force Report Dr. Ruth H. Faine, Assistant Principal, Southeast High School, presented the recommendations of the High School Academic Program Task Force. The recommendations are as follows:

Communicate high expectations and opportunities for all students by establishing curriculum plans for high school students. Beginning with the graduating class of 1993, require that each student, with his or her parents, select a curriculum plan. Most students are expected to follow a college preparatory or career-college preparatory curriculum. (See note below.)

a. b. c. d. e.

College preparatory curriculum Career-college preparatory curriculum Career preparatory curriculum Honors college preparatory curriculum Individualized high school program

Establish officially sanctioned honors classes with specified prerequisites, standards and weighted grades. Place a priority on implementing these courses so that the class of 1993 can take full advantage of them.

Add a one credit of geography to high school graduation requirement, effective with the graduating class of 1994.

Clarify the graduation requirements by recognizing that the required fine arts credits are fine arts electives and the required physical education credits are physical education electives by including the word electives in the statement and identifying other electives as general electives.

Establish and enforce prerequisites for remedial courses.

Involve parents more in making decisions on high school course enrollment by requiring a parent signature for establishing or changing the curriculum plan and for enrollment in remedial, honors or AP classes.

Establish a system of weighted grades to encourage student achievement in honors placement courses.

recognize and and advanced

NOTE: The plans may be modified and upgraded. Students whose achievement may be deficient at a given time are encouraged to correct skill deficiencies in remedial courses and continue to complete college preparatory programs. For Board action January 3, 1989

High School Curriculum Dr. Carolyn S. Hughes, Assistant Superintendent, Curriculum and Program Development, reviewed the proposed 1989-90 high school curriculum handbook and a five year implementation schedule showing how the task force recommendations can be fully implemented. In addition, the Board was provided with a draft of revised Board Policy 1-38, Graduation Requirements . Dr. Hughes responded to questions from members of the Board.

SUPERINTENDENT’S REPORT 2.

High School Academic Program Task Force Report and High School Curriculum

High School Curriculum (Continued) exam to earn college credit will be a required part of AP courses. Mrs. Parks said she had a problem with the course numbers (E355, S257, etc.) which identify whether a course is an elective, standard, etc., appearing on the students’ transcripts. Dr. Lessie LeSure responded that only course names and attendance would appear on transcripts. Mr. Hise expressed concern about the District being able to provide all the advanced and honors educational services, and asked for assurance that the proposed curriculum could be implemented and supported. Dr. Hughes described some of the plans for providing instruction, including concentration of the wide range of electives and, in the future, possibly instruction via satellite for honors or advanced placement classes in which only a few students enroll.

Mr. Prigmore said he didn't believe the report would change academic standards and said letter grades should indicate that a student can read, write and do math. He questioned a change of course names and weighted point system, and said there was a need to put more good teachers in the classroom. Dr. Hughes stated the program set the framework—the rest depended on teachers, administrators and others working together to raise the standards. Mrs. Parks said she hoped the courses listed would be monitored to see that they are being taught and that the results are evaluated based upon the instructional program. Mrs. Hill expressed concern about AP courses with only one or two students enrolled. She suggested allowing these students to transfer to other schools to enroll in larger classes or finding other ways to meet students' needs. Mrs. Hill also asked if there would be a notation on diplomas to indicate which course of study a student had completed. Dr. Hughes said a notation would be written on the transcript and possibly seals would be placed on diplomas to recognize certain kinds of achievement. Mrs. Floyd said she believed if the school would lead the way in trying to get the parents involved that they would become involved; that the school should tell the parents what their role is in helping students learn.

Hearing Hearing

Mr. Bill Gouldy, French teacher, John Marshall High School, addressed the Board concerning the revised curriculum plan. He described what he perceived to be problems with weighted grades, honors courses, missing courses such as AP foreign language and literature, and AP courses taken strictly for grade point average enhancement. Dr. Hughes responded to Mr. Gouldy's remarks. She stated the AP course he mentioned was not included because of an error in printing; also, that the task force would be meeting again to discuss various implementation concerns (AP weighted grades, etc.) .

Dr. Steller presented his mid-term report as called for in the superintendent's employment contract. In the report, Dr. Steller highlighted some of the District's accomplishments and progress during the first part of the school year. Improvement in the procedure for transferring staff was mentioned. Dr. Steller pointed out that the District has improved, but that as the process continues to be refined, it will become even closer to what we want it to be. In other comments, Dr. Steller said that special education enrollment is up substantially this year. Also, the District has more transition classes. Concerning some of the newer efforts in the District, Dr. Steller mentioned the pre-kindergarten programs at Ridgeview and Southern Hills which were added as a part of the District's early childhood education program complementing the tuition-based programs at Edwards, Eugene Field and West Nichols Hills. All programs are over 80% of capacity and growing, with expectations to reach 85-90% by mid-year. Rockwood, Telstar and Fillmore, the state-funded programs, are at 100% capacity. Dr. Steller stated that the breakfast program has been successful this year, and he anticipates even more growth. Dr.

Steller also commented on:

Reduction of pull-out programs for bilingual and Chapter 1. He stated that this change to an after-school program has tremendous potential for significantly increasing student achievement.

Discussion of recommendations submitted by Citizens Panel Study Athletics concerning athletic director's position.

The Board and superintendent discussed the position of an athletic director with Mr. Charles Murdock, Chairperson of the Athletics Panel. Some of the issues addressed included whether to hire a permanent athletic director or a consultant on a one-year basis; what the salary should be; whether the position should be for athletics alone or combined with the responsibility of health and P.E.; and how to fund the new position. As a result of the discussion, Darrel Shepard, administration/panel liaison, will work with the panel, and by the January 17, 1989, Board meeting, present some options for action concerning the athletic director position.

R. #189 APPROVAL TO BEGIN PROCEDURE TO FILL BOARD VACANCY

Discussion

I L

During discussion of the motion, Mrs. Hill said she believed that in order to be in compliance with the law concerning filling of unexpired terms, that the Board should go through the process of attempting to fill the vacancy. Mrs. Parks stated she believed the Board had made that required effort when the motion to begin the process was voted on and failed (11/7/88). Mrs. Donwerth said she felt that a seven-member Board would make it easier to obtain a quorum for special meetings. Mrs. Parks said Mrs. Donwerth's observation was true, but wished to point out that Board members should not wait an hour and a half for a quorum to be present, such as at the special meeting of December 15. She further explained how she had given notification that she would not be present at that special meeting because of a prior commitment. Following additional discussion, seconded by Mrs. Donwerth, that

the

motion,

(a)

Mr. Prigmore addressed the retired principals issue. He stated he thought the issue was dead in March or April of 1988; that it should now be dealt with once and for all or become an official legal matter. Concerning the special meeting scheduled for Thursday, December 15, at which a quorum was not present and the meeting cancelled, Mr. Prigmore remarked that every member of the Board was dedicated and hardworking; that there there was politics involved with the meeting in question. He said he felt the issue was how Board members treat their fellow board members; and that if the meeting was important, he should have been called. He said he felt Mrs. Parks was owed an apology. Mrs. Floyd commented that if Board members have a problem with scheduling a special meeting, that fact should be mentioned at the time they are asked whether they can attend. She said special meetings are not called unless it is certain that at least four Board members can attend.
