1.

1989-90 High School Curriculum

Approval of the High School Curriculum as presented in the High School Curriculum Handbook for 1989-90 and approval of Board Policy 1-38, Graduation Requirements, was requested of the Board. With concurrence of the Board, this item was deleted from consideration until the Regular Meeting of January 17, 1989. (Copy on file in the Office of the Clerk.) Discussion

Dr. Steller reported that several changes were proposed by the High School Academic Program Task Force due to such things as little or no enrollment in some courses; some courses which are really middle school rather than high school courses; and some consolidation of courses. He said there is also a proposal to phase in the program, and this is primarily due to cost. Waiting until 1994 to require geography is recommended in order to ensure the District has certified geography teachers at all schools. Concerning questions relative to grading, he said a task force has already begun meeting this year to deal with that separate issue. The curriculum task force will also continue working so that next year there will be other recommendations concerning the number of hours required (core courses) and perhaps other courses which need to be added or deleted. Mrs. Hill made the following suggestions: 1) giving students the option of transferring some fine arts credits for P.E. credits; 2) making Furniture Technology a one-hour or two-hour course at student's option; 3) maintaining CVET Horticulture at Star Spencer and Capitol Hill if they have students who want it; and 4) not counting CVET courses against the regular enrollment for class size.

UNFINISHED BUSINESS 1.

1989-90 High School Curriculum

(Continued)

The Board discussed the recommended deletion of higher level debate and drama courses. Dr. Carolyn Hughes, Assistant Superintendent, Curriculum and Program Development, explained that at Grant High School 15 students are enrolled in Debate I; 3 in Debate II; and no students in III or IV currently. Mr. Hise stated that because of the scholarships students can be offered from taking these classes that "the Board would be remiss to shove it aside".

1989-90 HIGH SCHOOL CURRICULUM FOR ACTION 1/17/89 (Continued)

Mrs. Parks stated she was concerned about the basics, such as reading and math, that are vital to the school system becoming the school system the Board wanted it to become. She said she was concerned about students who are not equipped to read and interpret the questions on the ACT or SAT exams, and cases where a student may have a grade point average of 3.5, but earn a score of 6 on the ACT. She recommended that the curriculum handbook be sent to the school sites with the task force members to let teachers and administrators have some direct input concerning the course offerings. Mr. Hise commented that in order for the three prep programs to work and for parents to be able to hold counselors accountable, that more counselors would need to be hired.

Regarding information about the curriculum changes reported by the media, Mr. Prigmore stated it was not true that students were taking a lot of elective courses rather than basic educational courses or that electives were being traded for "tougher courses". He said the Board was debating which courses were or were not going to be electives. He also disagreed with grade point weighting and opposed deleting Debate III and IV. He commented that that what he called "grade honesty" should be brought back, and credibility in grading and in the names used for various courses was needed. Dr. Hughes responded that the task force's recommendations did not address a "tougher curriculum", but concerned fine-tuning of the curriculum; that it was a matter of opening doors to students to make certain that when they come out of Oklahoma City schools they are prepared either for college, are selfsufficient as a career person or a wage earner or have the opportunity of being both career prep and college prep. In response to a concern expressed by Mrs. Parks about students being placed in honors courses simply because of an overflow in standard courses. Dr. Hughes said the recommendation of the task force was that there be prerequisites for honors courses and that those prerequisites be honored. In other comments, she stated there are committees and task forces in virtually every content area, working on course outlines, goals, textbooks, etc. Concerning the rationale for weighted grading for honors/AP courses, she said the task force felt the weighted grade incentive would encourage students to put out the effort for courses that have necessarily higher expectations, harder work, more analytical thinking and more research papers. Hearings

The following persons addressed the Board concerning the proposed 1989-90 high school curriculum presented to the Board on December 19, 1988. Mr. Hise welcomed the students who came to the Board meeting to express their views. 1)

Terry Haigler, Grant High School student, spoke in defense of courses identified for possible deletion, including Debate III and IV, Drama IV, and Technical Theater III.

Hearings (Continued) 2)

William Bond, Grant High School student, discussed the importance of debate classes for developing public speaking ability and the value of drama classes for helping some students maintain interest in school and earn scholarships.

3)

Pratibha Gautam, Grant High School student, opposed the deletion of Debate III and IV, Drama IV, and Technical Theater III. She said students did not want to be restricted to only one or two years in these subjects.

4)

David Shepherd, Northeast High School senior, said he believed many of the curriculum changes are very good, but that students should be able to decide whether they want credit for after-school athletics. He also stated that he supported weighted grading of no more than 4.5 for an honors course or 5.0 for an AP course; and felt the schools should prepare students for college or a career. He introduced his English and French teacher, Mrs. Mary Gouldy. (Mrs. Gouldy is also a member of the High School ■Aea’demic Program Task Force.)

Mrs. Floyd remarked that she personally knew the value of debate, but more students need to be enrolled. She said she supported Mrs. Hill's idea of having teachers encourage more students to stay in the program, especially at the higher levels.

BOARD MEMBERS’ COMMENTS BOARD MEMBER COMMENTS

Mrs. Hill commented about a recent newspaper article about the lobbyist. She said the job description did not define it as a position where money will be spent on lobbying activities. Mrs. Parks thanked Dr. Steller for information she requested earlier and received on December 21, 1988. She also said she attended the opening of the 42nd Oklahoma Legislative session that afternoon and heard the Governor discuss issues about education in his State of the State Address.

Mr. Prigmore commented on calls he had received and newspaper articles concerning the District's new Legislative Information Officer. He said it was important that the term "lobbyist" be clarified. He said he tried to assure the author of one particular letter to the editor that the Board hired an individual who had as one job duty to do some lobbying for the school district.

BOARD MEMBERS’ COMMENTS Mr. Prigmore discussed the request made by a Board member at a previous meeting concerning the permissibility of an executive session to discuss the retirement bonus issue raised by retired principals. He noted that there were executive sessions on July 22, 1988, and one in October in which the issue was discussed.

BOARD MEMBER COMMENTS (Continued)

Mr. William Smith, substituting for General Counsel Ron Day, responded that the executive session in July was a continuing part of the negotiations that were occurring at the time, and was permissible; the one in October was for discussion of a claim asserted and possible pending litigation, and was also permissible under the Open Meeting Law. He said the last letter from Mrs. Thompson on behalf of the retired principals, again raising this issue, very clearly said it wasn't a legal issue, but a "moral issue". He said if it were a legal claim, the Board would be able to meet in executive session to confer with its attorney. He said the letters he has prepared on behalf of the Board and at the Board's direction since then have been to the effect that the decision has been made. Mr. Prigmore suggested that Mrs. Floyd's and Mr. Smith's letter in response to Virginia Thompson's letter be put on the agenda for open discussion since it can't be discussed in executive session. Concerning special meetings for the purpose of Board "work sessions" requested by Mrs. Parks, Mr. Prigmore said he thought it was important to have such a meeting(s) where priorities and pertinent issues can be discussed.

Mr. Prigmore requested a position.

response concerning the internal

auditor

Mr. Prigmore commented that every time he hears students speak like those who addressed the Board that evening, he is reassured about the students in Oklahoma City and across the nation. Mr. Hise said he agreed the Board was dealing with many serious problems. He said he was impressed with the student feedback, and encouraged students to express their views any time they had a concern. He commented that he is looking forward to 1989 and the achievements that this district can make, and hopes the District can offer students the things they need to help them achieve success in life. Mrs. Hill remarked that one of the reasons she had stayed on the Board as long as she had was because of her pride in the students. Mrs. Parks recognized her friend and member of the Equity Committee, Mrs. Lettie Ruth Hunter.

ADJOURNMENT

There being no further business, the Board adjourned at 9:29 Motion for adjournment was made by Mrs. Hill and seconded by Hise. On roll call, the votes were as follows: Mrs. Hill, Mrs. Parks, aye; Mr. Prigmore, aye; Mr. Hise, aye; Mrs. Floyd, All aye.

(b)

1987-88 Audit Report Ms. Pamela Deering, Director, Budget and Financial Management Division, introduced Mr. Bill Wilson and Mr. Chris Perkins of Price Waterhouse to present the annual external audit report. The audit report was prepared for fiscal year 1987-88, and included the general fund, building levy fund, central food service fund, external funds, and all student activity funds. Mr. Wilson gave an overview of the audit process and responded to questions from Mr. Hise and other members of the Board. Mr. Perkins described in more detail how the audit was conducted, reviewed some required reporting changes and discussed the auditor's findings and recommendations. Mr. Perkins noted that during 1987-88 the administration had complied with and implemented all recommendations the auditor made the previous year. He stated that the internal accounting controls were very adequate and that the district's records were in very good condition, and in fact, were better than some corporate records he has seen.

Accuracy of School-Level Projections, 1988-89

Dr. John Crawford, Administrator, Planning, Research & Information Services Department, discussed results of an assessment of accuracy of enrollment projections. Overall, he said the districtwide accuracy rate was about 99.8%--94 more students enrolled than were projected. In 1988-89 the extremes of projection error were reduced by over 26%. He stated they also projected accurately enough in about two-thirds of the schools so that no teacher movement was required. A survey of the principals was taken, and the number of principals disagreeing with the projections is down to 21. Fifty-two of 85 schools were projected within one classroom unit of actual enrollment; at only 4 schools the projections were not within 2-3 classrooms of actual enrollment. District enrollment overall is "stable to slightly decreasing" due to losses in grades 6-12 for the last 5 years; for the last 6-7 years the elementary enrollment has grown. (A copy of the written report is on file in the Office of the Clerk.) Mrs. Parks expressed concern about the decline in enrollment at the high and middle school levels. Dr. Crawford said a study of the middle level grade students transferring out of the district was done recently which showed a significant number left the state, and about 1/3 went to surrounding districts. Dr. Steller noted that a task force is currently studying the dropout issue, but that the number of dropouts is only a very small part of the total decline. Mr. Hise commented on the difficulty of making accurate projections for schools in southern parts of the District because of in-district shifts of population.

Mrs. Parks asked for information concerning students who live within the boundaries of Area 5, but later show up on the rolls of schools elsewhere in the District.

Dr. Steller reported on The National Conference on Youth Gangs he attended in Los Angeles the previous week with five other individuals from Oklahoma City. The Federal government, through the Justice Department, invited twenty cities to send six agency representatives to participate in the conference. The cities were chosen on the basis of what was termed "emerging gang problems". Oklahoma City was identified as a city which has the potential to have a gang problem. The intent of the conference was for participants to be able to acquire some strategies and techniques to address the issue in the early stages. The attendees were: Arthur Steller; Bob Macy, District Attorney; Robert Wilder, OKC Chief of Police; Justin Jones, Chief Probation Officer and Deputy Corrections Officers; Tom Lovelace, Inspector General; and Sid Brown, Juvenile Court Judge. At 8:45 p.m. Mrs. Floyd declared a five-minute recess.

The following suggestion made by Mrs. Hill will be incorporated into the curriculum handbook: students may choose to enroll in furniture technology for a one-hour or two-hour course in all district high schools. Staff Report

Dr. Carolyn Hughes, Assistant Superintendent, Curriculum and Program Development, reported that additional teacher input was provided during meetings held in each of the high schools as requested. She reported recommended changes resulting from this process: 1) for elective courses that may be offered more than one year, such as debate, drama, and vocational agriculture, the recommendation is to offer a first year (beginning program) and then consolidate the additional years into an "advanced course"; and 2) add one additional elective social studies credit to the proposed addition of one credit of geography for students graduating in 1994 and thereafter. (Note: recommendation 2, which would have resulted in a policy change, was not acted upon by the Board.)

Hearings The following persons addressed the Board:

1.

Ms. Pratibha Gautam, student. Grant High School, thanked the Board for hearing the students’ opinions and and for their support of maintaining advanced drama and debate classes.

2.

Ms. April Jenkins, student. Grant High School, thanked the Board, task force and superintendent for hearing the students' appeal and for allowing them to continue their study of public speaking and debate.

3.

Mr. Richard Woodruff congratulated Dr. Hughes and the task force for their work on the curriculum handbook. He asked if higher level courses would be made readily available to all students who desire them, including current high school students. Dr. Hughes responded that the provision currently contained in the handbook is that if five or more students wish to take a course that is not offered where they are currently enrolled, transportation will be provided. (Generally, a minimum of 15 students are required for a class ‘•to be offered.) Dr. Steller added that offering every course at every high school was not possible due to several factors, including declining enrollment.

1989-90 High School Curriculum (Continued)

Discussion Mrs. Parks encouraged Dr. Hughes to consider reinstating the cosmetology program at Northeast High School. Dr. Hughes said reinstating the program may be possible if the State Department of Vocational-Technical Education approves an application and can fund the program and if there is sufficient student interest. In response to Mr. Hise's concern that remedial students may be enrolled in advanced placement classes. Dr. Hughes stated the task force recommends having clearly specified prerequisites for advanced courses, as well as clear prerequisites for students to get into remedial classes.

Mrs. Hill stated she was concerned that a student can graduate without knowing how to prepare a terra paper. She discussed her belief that all students should have typing skills, not only for typing papers but for using computers. She asked for this issue to be addressed next year during the discussion of the 1990-91 curriculum. Concerning geography, Mrs. Hill said she did not support adding that requirement at the high school level. Mr. Hise stated he was not in favor of commitment to a specific program of study (career prep, college prep, etc.); that he favored freedom of choice, especially for adolescents. Mrs. Hill, Mrs. Parks and Mr. Hise stressed the importance of meeting the needs of all students. 2.

Policy 1-38, Graduation Requirements Mrs. Hill made a motion, seconded by Mr. Hise, to not consider revised Board Policy 1-38, Graduation Requirements, as shown. Following discussion, Mrs. Hill withdrew her motion and the item was administratively withdrawn from consideration. Mrs. Floyd stated the policy would appear on the February 6, 1989 regular meeting agenda.

BOARD MEMBERS’ COMMENTS Mrs. Parks mentioned that she would like a form letter or a resolution developed which could be sent to the families of deceased employees to express sympathy and appreciation for years of service. Dr. Steller said that could be done. Mr. Hise commented that a Douglass High School student told him she felt it was unfair for Douglass to be singled out in recent TV coverage concerning drug activity. He said it needed to be pointed out to the media that suburban schools have equal or greater problems with drugs, and that all schools within the metropolitan Oklahoma City area are not necessarily 1-89 district schools. Dr. Steller noted that one of the stations was called and they did correct (in their 10 p.m. broadcast) one of the statements made during a 6 p.m. broadcast. Mr. Hise remarked that at the Special Meeting on January 14 the Board interviewed five outstanding candidates for the vacant school board position. (Note: A special election for Area 4 was subsequently called by the County Election Board for February 28, 1989.)

Mrs. Hill said she was also very proud to be a part of the Board the previous Saturday when the five Board applicants were interviewed. In other comments she stated that realtors’ negative attitudes about District schools have really "turned around" and also announced that she has been as-ked by the Council of Urban Boards of Education Nominating Committee to attend a meeting in Washington, DC, on February 5, at CUBE’s expense.

Ms. Ann Turner, President, OCFT Ms. Rafael White, Principal, Jackson Middle School, Respondent Ms. Kimberly Robinson Ray, Associate General Counsel for the School District, Respondent's Representative Gloria Griffin, Director of Middle Schools and 5th Grade Centers

Procedural Issue Ms. Turner asked that the hearing be continued until a later date. She explained that the grievant, Robin Teske, was not present and was under the impression that the hearing had been postponed. She stated the grievant had a schedule conflict, and that her union representative (Jack Nichols) was out of town. She also stated that the attorney representing the grievant and the union, Ms. Jill Lollis, was ill and could not be present. Ms. Robinson Ray objected to the motion for a continuance on the basis that it was not timely requested and that no notice had been given to administration. She explained that her first knowledge of the union's assumption that the hearing had been cancelled came when she called Ms. Lollis at home at approximately 3:00 that afternoon to make some stipulations concerning certain evidence. She said Ms. Lollis advised her that Mr. Nichols was to have made arrangements for a continuance the previous week. Ms. Robinson Ray recommended that the Board dismiss the grievance for failure to pursue. R. #213 GRIEVANCE DISMISSED

Following discussion among all members of the Board, Ms. Turner and Ms. Robinson Ray, Mrs. Donwerth moved, seconded by Mrs. Hill, that due to insufficient notice and since none of the grievants were present that the hearing be cancelled and the grievance dismissed.

Appellant's application for classified employment, dated 8-31-84.

Board Regulation G-23-R4, Staff Hiring. Memo to Sam Bogle from Cathy Watson dated 11/9/88. Memo to Mark Reed from Sam Bogle dated 12/13/88.

Opening Statements

Respondent: The administration's position was that the employment of Ms. Charlotte Hines should be terminated for falsification of her employment application and violation of district administrative regulations. Ms. Hines answered "no" to a question on her employment application concerning whether or not she had ever filed a claim for or received workers' compensation benefits. During routine processing of a claim associated with an on-the-job injury she sustained this year, it was discovered that she had filed a claim in 1982.

Appellant: The union contended that Ms. Hines was not being recommended for termination because of the falsified application, but because she is currently on leave of absence for an on-the-job injury and possibly facing another operation. Mr. (Donald) Moore said the regulation, established in 1985, should not affect Ms. Hines' employment which initiated in 1984. Summary of Testimony Respondent's witness:

Vern Moore

Mr. Moore's testimony included: his role in the employee disciplinary process; the employment application completed by Ms. Hines; and Regulation G-23-R4 which provides that termination will be recommended when discovery of falsification occurs within ten (10) years of the employment date. Mr. Moore testified that an employee's performance has no bearing on recommendations for termination due to falsification of the application.

Appellant's witnesses:

Sam Bogle, Cathy Watson

Mr. Bogle testified that the recommendation for termination was solely because of the falsified application. He stated he had no knowledge of the disposition of the claim currently pending before the State Workers' Compensation court. He described the procedure followed in reporting the discovery of the previous claim and the recommendation for termination.

The purpose of the investigations are to determine prior injuries and to ensure that any benefits paid by the District are exclusive of previous awards granted by the Workers' Compensation Court.

SPECIAL BUSINESS PRETERMINATION HEARING FOR CHARLOTTE HINES (Continued)

Summary of Closing Statements

Respondent: Ms. Ray said the administrators handled this case in a consistent and even-handed manner; that Mr. Vern Moore has recommended termination in every similar case to come before him. The appellant was notified at the time she filled out the application that misrepresentation was cause for dismissal as evidenced by her signature on the "Applicant's Certification and Agreement" contained in the application. Ms. Ray asked that the Board be consistent in its application of the regulations and terminate the employment of Charlotte Hines. Appellant: Mr. Donald Moore stated that Ms. Hines was an individual who wanted to work, and despite her misrepresentation, should not have to pay for it the rest of her life. He said a second chance should be given to good and loyal employees, and that Ms. Hines has proven to be a good employee. Decision During discussion, Mrs. Parks stated she believed the "x" marked on the application in response to the question about prior claims looked slightly different from the others. Mrs. Parks asked Ms. Hines if she placed that particular "x" by the "no" answer on the application in 1984. Ms. Hines said she did not remember.

Mr. Prigmore suggested a review of the wording of the question on the employment application concerning whether workers' compensation claims have been filed and/or compensation received for on-the-job injuries. He also suggested review of administrative regulation G-23-R4.

Following a short discussion, Mrs. Donwerth made the motion, seconded by Mr. Hise, that the Board deny the administration’s recommendation to terminate the employment of Ms. Charlotte Hines. 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.

Equity Committee Progress Report

Reverend Gary Bender, Chairperson of the Equity Committee, presented a progress report on Equity Committee activities. Reverend Bender thanked the Board, Dr. Steller, Dr. Bill Price-Curtis, Equity/Affirmative Action Officer and Equity Office secretary, Denise Edwards, for their support of the committee's efforts. Reverend Bender said the committee members feel they have accomplished their charge, but that they should be doing more. He said the membership, which was once stable, is plagued by continual resignations; also, many members who have resigned negatively perceived their role as "building inspectors". Reverend Bender stated the committee seeks a new direction, and as a result of a workshop conducted for the committee in September 1988, the committee has developed a new definition of "equity" for the Board's consideration:

"Test score performance on the Metropolitan Achievement Test (MAT) by all schools within our district on each of the three areas measured by the test, which does not deviate more than 20 percentage points from the district mean for a particular school's level; i.e., elementary, fifth year center, middle and high school."

Reverend Bender explained that this new definition would require developing a mean in reading, language and math for each grade. He said the committee feels all students in the district are enough alike that they can be compared with students of the same grade in other schools. He suggested ranking the schools, and reviewing those that fall below 20% of the district mean. Reverend Bender also requested a staff liaison from the Research Department to provide assistance.

COMMENTS/BUSINESS

Equity Committee Progress Report (Continued) Mrs. Hill stated she agreed that membership was a problem and that all Board members needed to fill the vacancies with people who would be able to make the appropriate commitment to serve. She said she disagreed, however, that the committee did not have a formalized direction. She said recent minutes of the Equity Committee meetings indicated to her that the committee had deviated from its original charge, and stated a definition of equity was provided in 1985, which she read as follows:

EQUITY COMMITTEE PROGRESS REPORT (Continued)

"An educational system which provides equal educational opportunities for all children. "Encompassed with this premise is the assurance of equal learning environments. Facilities, equipment, qualified personnel and pupil/teacher ratios will be equal in the Oklahoma City Public School system. "The goal of equity in education can be measured by immediate evidence of appropriate classroom materials, appropriate classroom equipment, adequate and useable playground equipment, clean facilities, maintenance of facilities and pupil/teacher ratios. "The goal can also be measured through year-end achievement such as reduction of drop-out rates, improved attendance, improved retention rates, proportionate representation in programs for all children, improved individual test scores, and improved standardized test scores which meet or exceed the district and national norms."

Mrs. Hill reviewed the charge to the committee in its first year, the expansion of the charge in the second year, and other modifications. Mrs. Parks said the members of the committee should be commended for their efforts and the Board should be proud of the fact that these people are volunteers. She said she was not sure "whether we do have equity in the Oklahoma City Public Schools". She said the committee members are coming and going "because of the function and because of the position that they have been encumbered with".

In further discussion. Reverend Bender explained for Mr. Prigmore and other members of the Board how he believed the new definition would help the committee determine whether equity exists. Mr. Prigmore commented that he felt the Board was trying to work toward equity; "to improve our equitable position in terms of student achievement and facilities, which work hand in hand more so than test scores do". Mrs. Donwerth remarked that the purpose of the committee was to assure equity, and that she was very proud of the Equity Committee and the district as a whole. Mr. Hise said he would support whatever the Equity Committee needed within the guidelines of its original establishment. At Mr. Prigmore's and Mrs. Hill’s suggestion and with the concurrence of the Board, Mrs. Floyd said the Board would study Reverend Bender's proposed definition and provide direction to the committee in a few weeks.

McGuire v. Oklahoma City Public School District 1-89

"This case was filed in 1985. The facts of that case were that the plaintiff, an elementary student, was injured when she fell from playground equipment and struck her head on the ground. Plaintiff alleges that she suffered a learning disability as a result of that head injury and is seeking damages from the school district in the amount of $102,000. The plaintiff is represented by Joseph Renke. The school district is represented by Robert Smith of Monet, Hayes, Bullis, Thompson & Edwards. "On January 26 the plaintiff took the deposition of Mr. John Butchee, our director of elementary education for Division A. The discovery deadline in that matter was January 31. The trial has been set for June 19 before Judge Dixon. We will advise the Board as this matter progresses." Oklahoma Electric Supply Co. v. 1-89

"The matter of Oklahoma Electric Supply Co. v. 1-89 is scheduled for pretrial on March 27, and is scheduled for trial before Judge Owens on April 3, 1989.

We are represented in that case by Mr. Ron Day and Ms. (Laurie) Jones' law firm, Fenton, Fenton, Smith, Reneau & Moon."

Claims Filed/Sum Paid "In late spring of 1988 there was chemical damage to patron property due to herbicide sprayed at several school sites; Northwest Classen, Belle Isle, Hayes, Telstar. Approximately 15 patrons suffered some property damage in that grass, trees, shrubs, etc., were destroyed. After a thorough investigation by Dr. Jack Isch and some negotiations, some of those claims were settled. In December, the Board approved payment of 11 claims, which left 4 outstanding. As of this date. Dr. Jack Isch has successfully completed negotiations with the final 4 claimants who did not initially settle. That specific information will be forwarded to you very shortly and will be forthcoming for your review and approval or further direction."

MOTION CARRIED 6-0. Special Report Approval to amend training programs

(a)

Recommendation to amend the Bureau of Apprenticeship Training (BAT) Program and Maintenance Department Training Program (MDTP) Mr. Vern Moore, Executive Director of Personnel Services, provided an overview of the recommended amendments of both programs. He said the purpose of the amendments is to clarity concerning affected maintenance provide for employees who do not complete the program or affected employees who choose not to enter into the program. With the approval of the amendments, Mr. Moore said he anticipated having all maintenance employees enrolled in the program by March 15, 1989.

The provisions of the amendments include the following:

1.

All craftspersons regularly assigned to specific trades will either (a) be making satisfactory progress in the training program; or (b) be certified as having completed the training.

2.

Craftspersons failing to meet the training and/or certification requirements will be reassigned outside the Maintenance Department.

Mrs. Parks noted that participation in the training programs was previously voluntary, and asked what the status would be of an employee who chooses not to participate. Mr. Moore responded that the individual will be reassigned outside of the maintenance division (if a vacancy exists); they will receive the salary commensurate with that particular assignment after the conclusion of the current contract year. He said only five employees are not in the program now, but he hopes to convince those individuals to be a part of the training program so that they can acquire the skills and the safety training that administration believes is needed. Completion of the training program will also result in a salary increase.

Concerning help for individuals currently employed who have poor reading or writing skills, Mr. Al Patrick, Support Personnel Training Coordinator, said the District has had several classes for persons functionally and/or totally illiterate. As an example, he described special provisions made for one individual currently enrolled in BAT training to attend literacy classes. Mr. Patrick explained that the District is now required to abide by electrical and plumbing codes. Craftsmen are required to make installations and repairs according to those codes, which requires the ability to read and write.

COMMENTS MR. HISE

COMMENTS MRS. DONWERTH

Mrs. Hill commented on NCA receptions she had recently attended at Hillcrest School and Gatewood Elementary School.

COMMENTS MRS. HILL

Mrs. Parks congratulated the parents and interested persons who come to the Board meetings to express their concerns. She said parents' comments are appreciated. She also reported that she attended the NCA reception at Hawthorne Elementary School, and a Southside Kiwanis Club luncheon where she viewed a video about building character. She asked that the Southside Kiwanis Club be invited to bring the video to a future Board meeting. She also mentioned two meetings she attended at the State Capitol that dealt with school board matters, as well as the inauguration ceremony of Dr. Hans Brisch, Chancellor of Higher Education.

COMMENTS MRS. PARKS

Mr. Prigmore congratulated the teachers who received awards in the KOCO Channel 5 "Oklahoma's Best Teachers" project. He mentioned attending NCA receptions at John Marshall High School, Capitol Hill High School, U. G. Grant High School, Moon Middle School and Harding Middle School.

COMMENTS MR. PRIGMORE

Mr. Prigmore reported on spending approximately five hours at Harding Middle School on Tuesday, February 14, 1989, the day after there had allegedly been weapons on the school property. He categorized his concerns as "security", "discipline", and "punishment". Mr. Prigmore's observations from his visit to Harding School are summarized as follows:

1)

There were no security personnel or persons patrolling the outside of the building when he arrived.

2)

There are 18+ entrances to this very old building, of which several can only be seen and controlled when standing near them.

3)

Most of the panic bars (the bars that are pushed to open the door and when pulled shut are supposed to prevent people from coming in from outside) were not working. The parts and repair request on these had been on requisition for several weeks.

4)

In a very old building like Harding, there are many "nooks and crannies" where kids can hide and not be detected almost until you walk right up on them. The gym area was found to be a security problem that would take almost complete renovation to solve.

5)

There were no signs directing the public to the front door. There is no parking area in the front of the building for patrons.

BOARD 5. COMMENTS MR. PRIGMORE (Continued)

MEMBER

COMMENTS/BUSINESS

Board Members * Comments (Continued) 6)

On the morning of the fights, the principal was out of the building because of a meeting at the central office that started at 7:30 a.m.

7)

On the day of the visit to the building, Mr. Rundell’s office was full with the normal, daily, routine matters as well as some of the students who had been in trouble the day before. Some of these students who were fighting one another the previous day were now friends and standing up for one another.

8)

Mr. Prigmore was impressed with Mr. Rundell’s ability to recognize and call many students by their first names. It was quite apparent that he knew who the strangers were and were not in that building.

9)

There are two high school bus drops that are within one or two blocks of the school. Students are dropped off between approximately 3-3:15 p.m. every day. The high school students stay in the area until the middle schools are released, approximately 30 or 40 minutes later.

10)

One of the most surprising and disturbing facts found was that on February 14 no one from central office called or came by in person to see how everything was going.

Mr. Prigmore then listed three things he thought needed to be done at Harding as follows: 1)

Repair and replace all the panic bars that do not work so that the doors can be locked from the inside to assure very limited entrances and intrusion by outsiders.

2)

Hire immediately at Harding one more assistant principal whose primary function is hall monitoring and discipline, and who is relieved of all paperwork.

3)

Hire a uniformed security person or policeman to patrol part-time outside of the building with emphasis during these time periods of 8:30-9:30, the lunch periods and, in particular, from 3-4:15.

Mrs. Floyd made a statement in response to Mr. Prigmore’s comments concerning Harding Middle School. She said the social problems in this community affect businesses and other governmental agencies as well as the schools. She said it should be recognized that it will take the best efforts of everyone to deal with these problems effectively and come up with ways of meetings the needs of the students.

COMMENTS MRS, FLOYD

Mrs. Floyd stated the Board was very proud of the teachers who were recognized that evening. She thanked KOCO Channel 5 for sponsoring the program to recognize the teachers. Mrs. Floyd also mentioned attending the NCA reception at Stand Watie Elementary School earlier that day.

teachers and parents of the adoption of this policy for the control and discipline of children attending school in this District, the substance of this policy shall be set forth in the Student and Parent Handbook which is distributed on an annual

basis. DISCIPLINE

A.

The classroom teacher has the responsibility of maintaining

discipline in the classroom in accordance with the approved assertive discipline plan and rules for the school.

When

necessary, the teacher may refer students to the principal. Minor infractions of school rules may be handled by either

Due Process.

Before a principal gives a student a short-term

suspension, the principal will, at a minimum, afford the student the following elements of due process:

1.

The student will be given written notice of the charge which specifically identifies the rule or regulation the

student allegedly violated.

The student will be given a written explanation of the evidence which identifies the specific facts and cir-

cumstances of the incident and forms the basis for the charge. 3.

The student will be given the opportunity to present his/her side of the story to the principal.

discussion immediately after the alleged misconduct occurs in

which the student is told, and shown in writing, what he/she is accused of doing and what the factual basis of the accusation is, and then given the opportunity to explain his/her

version of the facts.

The written notice required by this

section will be set forth on the "Notice of Short-Term

Suspension" form attached to this policy.

A copy of the

completed form will be given to the student at the time of suspension, and a copy will be provided to the parents.

Any

suspension of ten (10) days or less which prevents a student from taking final exams, graduating, or completing his/her

REPORT

Policy J-15, Student Conduct - For action 3/6/89 (Continued) D.

Immediate Removal.

A student found in possession of alcohol,

a controlled dangerous substance or dangerous weapons or whose presence poses a continuing danger to persons or property or

an ongoing threat of disrupting the academic process may be

immediately removed from school pending the due process hearing.

In these rare cases, the student and parent will be

provided the written notice set forth above in Section C as soon as practical but no later than 72 hours from the time of removal.

E.

Hearing Date.

Due process requires that the student and

parent be given a reasonable time to prepare for the hearing after being notified of the charges and receiving notice of

their rights.

Therefore, depending on the seriousness of the

charge and the complexity of the facts, the hearing will be

scheduled no sooner than three (3) days, and no later than

five (5) days (exclusive of school breaks) after the student and parent

receive the

Section C.

If requested by the student and parent, a reason-

written notice

set forth

in

above

able continuance not to exceed three (3) additional days may be granted by the Hearing Officer.

Should the student and

parent agree with the proposed suspension, they may, in

writing, waive their right to a hearing, in which case the suspension becomes final, effective and non-appealable.

In

this event, the attached "Waiver of Hearing" form will be

signed by the student and parent.

P.

Hearing Officer.

A fair hearing presupposes that an accused

student will have the opportunity to present his or her case before an impartial trier of fact.

Thus, a building adminis-

trator not directly involved in the case as a victim, witness, investigator or prosecutor will preside over the

hearing and serve as hearing officer.

If the superintendent

determines no administrator in the school qualifies, then the superintendent, or designee, will appoint an outside building

or central office administrator to serve as Hearing Officer.

REPORT

Policy K-05, Visitors to the Schools - For action 3/6/89

VISITORS TO THE SCHOOLS The Board recognizes the right of its patrons and other inter-

ested persons to visit schools.

However, the Board further

recognizes the fact that student safety and well-being are of

utmost importance in our schools and that uninterrupted class time is imperative and conducive to good education.

Therefore,

the building principal has the authority to deny any person not identifiable as a student of that school, a parent of a stu-

dent of that school, a school employee, or a district employee,

the privilege of entering the building.

Any person entering the

school as a visitor must first check with the principal or

designee for clearance. Central Office staff and Service Center staff must "sign in" when entering schools and also wear an identification badge.

This

badge must be worn in such a manner that it is visible. Any student who makes an unauthorized visit to another school

campus shall be subject to disciplinary action for trespassing. A student suspended from Oklahoma City Public Schools shall not

return to the campus of the enrolled school site or any other school until the expiration of the suspension time without the

written permission of the building administrator. Any individual in violation of this policy is subject to arrest

for trespassing. 21 O.S. 1981, §1376

REPORT

R. #233 (Continued)

Special Staff Reports (b)

Legislative Update Don Hoover, Legislative Information Officer, reported on current state legislative action affecting school districts and responded to questions from members of the Board. Mr. Hoover pointed out that no consensus has developed on any issues to date.

Staff Report Legislative Update

With respect to funding, Mr. Hoover reported that indications are there will be more available in the February Board of Equalization certification (new money for education) than there was in the November certification, although not a significant amount. He said two bright prospects both in the areas of potential local funding are: 1) an ad valorem question now in the Senate which would allow local school districts to vote 10 additional mills; and 2) a county option sales tax, a new proposal this year, which would provide direct support for education. The "option transfer" issue could potentially dominate educational discussion this year, with similar proposals on the agendas in 27 states. Districts may have a better opportunity to pass bond issues in the future because of growing support for a proposed state constitutional amendment which would change the 60% requirement for approval to a simple majority. 6.

Remarks - Superintendent

Dr. Steller stated that staff was working on the issues of discipline, behavior, security, and the doors at quite a few of the buildings. He said it gets extremely expensive to fix the doors, and one option might be to pass a bond issue which includes new doors. (The cost for the Harding doors would be around $10,000.) Other associated security factors being reviewed include such things as windows and gates. A future recommendation to the Board will be to reinstitute the employment of an extra assistant principal to rotate from school to school, depending on where the need is at the time.

An informational brochure will be prepared to let the Board, staff, and others know the status of helpful educational legislation so that they will be aware and can help work to get these bills passed.

Mrs. Parks reported a maintenance problem with inside fluorescent lighting at Garden Oaks Elementary School and Star Spencer High School.

RECESS

HEARINGS

Eight persons addressed the Board as follows: 1.

Mr. Steve Barrymore, representing the Harding Middle School PTA board, discussed his group’s concern about security at the school. He said the Harding PTA board fully supports the efforts of principal Chuck Rundell and the faculty/staff at the school. He asked for the following: an additional assistant principal; immediate repairs to the doors; discontinuance of transfers of students with discipline problems to Harding; and that trespassers on the school property be dealt with severely. Mr. Barrymore thanked Mr. Prigmore for the time he recently spent at Harding.

2.

Mr. C. Fields, district patron, talked about students and drug use, weapons, and methods of dealing with these issues.

3.

Ms. Alice Niemeyer, P. E. teacher, Eugene Field Elementary School, said the district needs a supervisor for P. E. exclusively. She was concerned about the current position being advertised which will have combined duties of physical education and athletics. Ms. Neimeyer also encouraged a five-day elementary P. E. program.

4.

Mr. Billy Joe Lewis, Electrician, Maintenance Department, spoke concerning the Bureau of Apprenticeship (BAT) training program. He disagreed that the BAT training should be mandatory, and said this type of program excluded many workers.

5.

Ms. Zenobia Bruner, Harding Middle School patron, told of a fight her son was involved in at the school, requested greater security, an additional assistant principal, and for the panic bars on the doors to be fixed.

6.

Ms. Kennetta Freeman, Harding Middle School patron, discussed discipline and security needs at the school. She asked for reinstatement of inhouse suspension.

7.

Ms. Ann Turner, President, Oklahoma City Federation of Teachers, commended the Board for proposed changes to Board policies concerning dangerous weapons, student conduct, and trespassers on school property. She suggested that students who commit assault and battery against a teacher be removed from district schools completely. She also commented on the "shadowing" program and the need for Board policy to address the issue of pellet guns or realistic-looking fake guns.

8.

Ms. Donna J. Todd, bus driver, expressed concern about discipline problems on school buses and discouraged policy changes which would prevent students from attending any Oklahoma City Public School for certain offenses.

Mr. Hise stated he wanted everyone to know "the position (of internal auditor) is being created not out of distrust or fear, but to see that the community receives an accounting, that the system is efficient, and that the Board’s policies are carried out. It is our responsibility as board members to show the community that we are interested in preserving the integrity of our financial position, of our policies and of the procedures of the District."

COMMENTS

Mrs. Parks stated some mail being sent to her at the administration building did not reach her in time to accept invitations to certain school events. She asked for staff to be more careful in collecting and forwarding the mail to her.

COMMENTS MRS. PARKS

Mrs. Parks stated she believed the "Second Impressions" weekly compilation of newspaper articles about the 1-89 district and other educational issues was a waste of money. She suggested considering the "significance, the importance and the cost effectiveness" of this particular practice. Mrs. Parks further explained that she did not object to the content of "Second Impressions", but felt there were other needs in the District. She said instead of printing "Second Impressions", the money should be used in another manner so that supplies and books can be provided for students in the district.

MEMBER S'

COMMENTS

COMMENTS MRS. PARKS

Mrs. Parks questioned why negative incidents at some schools, such as Moon Middle School, are reported in the local media, but other similar incidents at other schools go unnoticed. She suggested the media should report all such incidents so that parents and others are aware.

COMMENTS MR. HISE

Mr. Hise said if a child has a problem in one particular school that staff should work on the problem in that school and not let them transfer to another school and take the problem there. Mr. Hise commented that most of the community is not aware of the diversity and uniqueness of programs offered at the various schools in the district. He provided examples of different types of programs offered at the middle school level. He said he felt the Oklahoma City schools "took a real raking as far as adverse publicity". He said everyone needs to work together, regardless of backgrounds and outlooks, and to accept others' valid concerns.

COMMENTS MRS. DONWERTH

Mrs. Donwerth mentioned a social gathering she recently attended where people made some very positive comments about Oklahoma City Public Schools bus drivers.

COMMENTS MRS. HILL

Mrs. Hill reported on a workshop session for new school board members she conducted the previous weekend and provided members of the Board with copies some of the printed materials used. She suggested the Board should periodically discuss the role of the board member. Mrs. Hill suggested the Equity Committee should review current information with regard to drop-out rates, attendance and retention for the remainder of the 1988-89 year. In the meantime, she said the Board should take the responsibility for getting a full committee. She said Dr. Price-Curtis could then spend some time bringing the new members up to date and then next year (1989-90) the Board could give the Equity Committee a more specific charge.

Mrs. Hill said several people who spoke during "Hearings" had questions. She asked the superintendent to respond to the patrons' concerns and then advise the Board of the outcome. COMMENTS MR. PRIGMORE

Mr. Prigmore continued his earlier discussion about discipline. The following is a summary of his remarks:

Hiring of additional assistant principals in the areas where needed should be a high priority. Administrative help from the central office should be assigned to a school if the principal is to be away from the building to attend a meeting, because of illness, etc. This particularly applies to schools where problems have existed previously. Additional policemen should be hired and assigned to from school to school as needed.

"rove"

Inhouse suspension should be reinstated in some form.

Consideration should be given to setting up a detention center in each middle and high school. Each student should be required to spend at least two hours in detention (as a "cooling off" period) before suspension occurs.

Buses serving high schools should not drop off students within four blocks of a middle or elementary school. Suspended students should not be allowed to return to a teacher's class until there is a meeting between the teacher, principal and student's parent or guardian.

BOARD

M E M B E R S’

COMMENTS

Doors of all schools should be repaired or replaced (if beyond repair) so that the panic bars and other safety devices work. This should be recognized as "money item", however. Closed campus for high schools should be established if individual schools desire it and agree to implement.

COMMENTS MR. PRIGMORE (Continued)

the

A lack of trust and cooperation seems to exist among staffs and principals. Dr. Phil Odom’s expertise should be used to provide inservices within the district concerning the Effective Schools approach.

Mr. Prigmore also commented that he believed the elementary drug education program utilizing the "Gus" and "Gussie" dolls was not working. He said he thought the K-5 drug programs should involve the teachers in the classroom; also, that rather than having several programs, have just one or two with which the teachers feel comfortable.

Mrs. Floyd commented about Johnson Elementary School. She said in spite of the fact that a number of the school's children have multiple handicaps, they have adopted another school in Honduras. She complimented the Johnson staff for choosing to participate in this relationship.

RESOLUTION

WHEREAS, The Board of Education of Independent School District Number 89 of Oklahoma County, Oklahoma, joins with other proponents of public education across the State of Oklahoma in a commitment to encourage educational excellence through improved school attendance, elimination of drug-related activities and violence on school campuses; and WHEREAS, The Oklahoma City Board of Education believes that this can only be achieved through avenues of legislative changes made available through the courageous efforts of our State Legislature;

THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT THE OKLAHOMA CITY BOARD OF EDUCATION SUPPORTS AND ENCOURAGES THE SUPPORT OF THE STATE LEGISLATURE IN THE PASSAGE OF THE FOLLOWING LEGISLATION: TRUANCY CONTROL - House Bill 1539 by Representatives Jeff Hamilton and Carolyn Thompson, is designed to keep students in school by strengthening truancy laws and giving police the ability to enforce those laws.

TOUGH PEN2\LTIES FOR ADULTS WHO USE CHILDREN TO DISTRIBUTE DRUGS Senate Bill 404 by Senators Larry Dickerson and Billy Mickle and Representative Mike Hunter will deter drug dealers from using juveniles to sell drugs by making use of juveniles a felony punishable by 10 years to life in prison without probation. It also calls for fines of up to $200,000.

KEEPING DRUGS AWAY FROM SCHOOLS AND PARKS - Senate Bill 404 also requires stronger penalties for those found guilty of possessing or selling drugs within 1,000 yards of schools or parks. MANDATORY SENTENCES FOR POSSESSION OF "CRACK" COCAINE - House Bill 1624 by Representative Danny Williams. SUSPENDING DRIVERS* LICENSES FOR SCHOOL DROPOUTS - House Bill 1204 by Representative Jeff Hamilton will encourage teenagers to stay in school by making school attendance a requirement for obtaining and keeping a driver's license. (This bill has been held over for consideration next year.)

BANNING THE SALE OF AUTOMATIC WEAPONS - House Bill 1514 by Representative Steve Lewis will put Oklahoma at the front of a national movement to prevent tragedies like those in other states involving attacks on school children by deranged individuals using automatic weapons. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED That each member of the Legislature of the State of Oklahoma receive a copy of this resolution as a statement of our support and a manifestation of our faith that our elected State leaders will vote to ensure the future well-being of the children of Oklahoma.

Asbestos Report (Continued)

Dr. Isch noted that the Graham & Associates report on the scope of the asbestos problem completed in 1987 (with an estimated cost to remove/repair/remodel of approximately $67 million) included such things as replacement of piping, new boilers, new wiring, new dropped ceilings and other items not included in the current recommendations. Dr. Isch estimated that to do the recommended repairs, removal and deal with isolation of materials would cost in excess of $10 million.

Dr. Isch responded to questions from members of the Board. Mr. Hise suggested that the Central Food Service Department fund its own asbestos abatement. He asked for a report concerning what portion could be charged to Food Service. He asked for other reports concerning fund balances so that priorities can be set. Authorization to apply for grants

MOTION CARRIED 7-0. During discussion, Mrs. Parks asked what happens to students who receive long-term suspensions for possession of dangerous weapons (Policy J-24) and are not permitted to attend another school in the district. She stated she was opposed to this policy. Dr. Steller responded that these students are the responsibility of their parents, and are not transferred to another school in the best interest and safety of the other students and staff. He said he hopes to have a separate, alternative program operational next year for students who have been suspended for bringing weapons to school.

Mrs. Parks and Mr. Prigmore objected to the requirement for Board members to sign in when entering schools, as called for in Board Policy K-05, Visitors to the Schools. With Board consensus, the words, "Board members" were deleted from the policy.

VISITORS TO THE SCHOOLS

The Board recognizes the right of its patrons and other interested persons to visit schools.

However, the Board further

recognizes the fact that student safety and well-being are of utmost importance in our schools and that uninterrupted class

time is imperative and conducive to good education.

Therefore,

the building principal has the authority to deny any person

not identifiable as a student of that school, a parent of a student of that school, a school employee, or a district employee, the privilege of entering the building.

Any person entering the

school as a visitor must shall first check with the principal or

designee for clearance.

All authorized visitors shall receive

courteous and prompt attention from school staff members. â– i.

Central Office staff, and Service Center staffs Board members and volunteers must shall "sign in" when entering schools during the school day and also wear an identification badge.

This badge

must be worn in such a manner that it is visible. Any student who makes an unauthorized visit to another school

campus shall be subject to disciplinary action for trespassing. A student suspended from Oklahoma City Public Schools shall not

return to the campus of the enrolled school site, any other Oklahoma City Public School site or attend any extracurricular

activities sponsored by Oklahoma City Public Schools until the

expiration of the suspension time without the written permission

of the building administrator. Any individual in violation of this policy is subject to arrest

for trespassing. Legal Reference:

COMMENTS

Mr. Prigmore said he was recently contacted about an article appearing in the Daily Oklahoman concerning penalties to be assessed against the district in excess of $1 million for teacher/student mandated ratio problems. He asked for a report concerning this issue. Mr. Hise commented about the dollar amount of the penalty, and noted that the governor recently vetoed a bill which would have relaxed the ratio. He asked for information concerning what the penalty assessed against the district for exceeding class size limitations was last year, what the penalty is going to be this year, and what the penalty is anticipated to be next year if the law stays in effect. He also asked if this is a problem in every school or just in some schools.

Mrs. Floyd mentioned that the Star-Spencer boys basketball team had been ranked No. 12 by U.S.A. Today newspaper. She reported on the Multi-Cultural Conference, jointly sponsored by the district. Central State University, and the State Department of Education, held the previous weekend. She also commented on the Maintenance Department awards ceremony and expressed regret at the resignation of Mr. Joe Tafolla, Administrative Supervisor of Maintenance.

Mrs. Floyd commented on an upcoming OSSBA conference for Board members, "Day at the Capitol", and encouraged members of the Board to attend. Mrs. Parks asked for a discussion of "Second Impressions" related to the cost effectiveness, distribution, purpose, etc., to be placed under Items Pending.

COMMENTS

Mr. Hise asked for responses to some previous requests he had made for information. Mrs. Hill commented on the benefits of advertising key personnel vacancies in the OSSBA newspaper.

On behalf of several parents, Mrs. Parks asked for an update report concerning the recent fires at Douglass High School (stadium) and Star-Spencer High School (science lab).

Dr. Jack Isch, Director of Service Center Operations, reported as follows: Star Spencer High School: The supervisor in charge of the project believes the lab will be ready for the students in two weeks. The Fire Marshall's report states the fire was caused by wiring in a closet. District electricians have spot-checked areas throughout the building and have not found any other similar problem areas.

Douglass High School: The full extent of the damage is not yet known. The remainder of the fertilizer and other debris will be cleaned out of the area on Tuesday (March 21). The cleanup should be completed this week. Mrs. Parks encouraged Oklahoma City residents to vote in the City Council election on March 21.

Mrs. Floyd reminded Board members of upcoming OSSBA conferences.

REPORT

Ms. Kimberly Robinson Ray, Associate General Counsel, reported as follows on a current legal matter:

Student Special Education Due Process "The hearing scheduled for April 4, 1989 did not occur. The student's attorney submitted new psychological evidence and petitioned for a mediation conference. The mediation conference was held with the parent on April 4. This student initially requested a transfer out of the district. When that transfer was denied, the parent petitioned for a transfer based on special education needs. It is the District’s position that the student is not 'special ed'. Both parties are reviewing the new evidence. If the matter is resolved, the due process hearing will not take place. We are tentatively scheduled for April 20."

Ms. Tommie Lou Levi, Teacher, Lee Elementary School, encouraged the Board to not release students early on the day of the parade. She believed most students would not attend the parade, and that they would be unsupervised until their parents got home from work.

Revised Policy 1-36, Promotion of Students MOTION: SECOND:

Betty Hill LaRue Donwerth

FOR APPROVAL OF POLICY 1-36, PROMOTION OF STUDENTS. CHANGES IN BOARD POLICY 1-36 BECOME EFFECTIVE THIS SCHOOL YEAR (1988-89) ONLY FOR EIGHTH GRADERS. IN THE EVENT RETENTION OF AN EIGHTH GRADE STUDENT IS RECOMMENDED BY THE TEACHER, THE PARENTS' DESIRES (TO PROMOTE OR RETAIN) WILL BE HONORED. THE POLICY TO BECOME EFFECTIVE SCHOOL YEAR 1989-90 FOR STUDENTS IN GRADES 1-7. Discussion

Dr. Steller explained the reason for the recommended changes to Policy 1-36. He pointed out that under the old policy a student could only be retained once during grades 5-8. This created a problem at the eighth grade level where previously retained students were being promoted to high school whether or not they were prepared for ninth grade work. During discussion, Mrs. Hill stated she would support a parent who complained about this policy being changed so near the end of the school year. Mr. Hise stated he also disagreed with changing the policy at this point in the school year; that the district had a contractual agreement with parents (student handbook, grade reports) concerning the promotion and retention guidelines. Mr. Prigmore said he could not support the policy because of the use of criterion referenced tests as indicators of academic competency. In response to a concern expressed by Mr. Hise about the social issue of retained middle school students who are substantially older than the other students. Dr. Steller said staff was developing a proposal to address that issue. ROLL CALL

Contract Lawn Care Services MOTION TO CONTRACT FOR LAWN CARE SERVICES FAILS

MOTION: SECOND:

Betty Hill Mike Fogarty

To award a contract to Tierra Vista, Inc., for lawn care (mow, trim, edge) at twenty-five schools for the mowing season (total not to exceed $50,680.00 - monthly payments may vary because of weather conditions) This purchase is to be charged to account G620.00. Discussion In response to a question from Mrs. Parks, Dr. Steller said persons employed as temporary personnel on a seasonal basis do have the opportunity for reemployment either by the District or can be recommended to the independent contractor. Dr. Jack Isch, Director of Service Center Operations, reported that only one of the temporary persons employed last year for grounds maintenance was not employed this year by the District or elsewhere. Mrs. Parks said she could not support the contract due to lack of certainty about reemployment of temporary personnel.

At Mr. Fogarty's request. Dr. Isch presented his recommendation and rationale. He stated that no one currently employed in the Grounds Maintenance Department was being recommended for termination or transfer to a different position. Some new equipment (push lawn mowers) was purchased last year for Ten of the 28 "backup" for mowing of front school yards. positions allocated are currently vacant; proposals were solicited for mowing 25% of the schools (about 25 schools), Employing ten temporary people for seven months at the temporary wage rate would cost the District almost $80,000, not including the cost of equipment repair, gasoline, depreciation on equipment, claims from teachers and staff members for windshields broken by flying debris, etc.

Dr. Isch responded to additional questions from Mrs. Mr. Fogarty, Mr. Hise, and Mrs. Hill.

Parks,

Mr. Hise commented that the various employment requirements and standards for District support employees (background checks, etc.) make them the type of people that can come in contact with students without cause for concern.

Mrs. Hill said there seemed to be a problem with persons employed as temporary grounds maintenance workers having the expectation that at the end of their contract they will be placed in a permanent position. Dr. Isch said employees are informed of the conditions of employment when hired and are advised to apply for vacant District positions at the end of their contract period. ROLL CALL

PRETERMINATION HEARING - ANDRE DeBOSE (Continued)

Opening Statements

Respondent: The .administration’s position was that the appellant had failed to satisfactorily perform the duties of his position, and that he willfully neglected his duties. Appellant: The union's position was that Mr. DeBose had an unfair work schedule and excess assignments and, therefore, was not able to succeed.

Summary of Testimony Witnesses for Respondent: Randle

Mr. Richard Vrooman and Mr. Raymond

Mr. Vrooman testified concerning his observations of Mr. DeBose’s performance, which he said had been deteriorating over the past year (since about February 25, 1988). He said he discussed the problems, including numerous teachers' complaints about rooms not being cleaned, with Mr. Randle, Administrator of Custodial Services, Mrs. Shirley, Plant Manager, and the head custodian, Mr. Shoemake. Mr. Randle testified concerning Mr. DeBose's immediate supervisors, work schedule, regular duties and assigned special projects. He also responded concerning significant event reports, informal counseling and formal disciplinary action taken against Mr. DeBose. Mr. Randle’s recommendation was to terminate the employment of Mr. DeBose.

Witness for Appellant:

Mrs. Mary Shirley

Mrs. Shirley testified that she supervises the custodial staff at eleven buildings, and that her office is located at Northwest Classen. She responded concerning work schedules that she and Mr. Shoemake had prepared, discussions with Mr. DeBose concerning his work schedule, and a denial to change Mr. DeBose's work shift because he was needed during the daytime hours. She said Northwest Classen has eleven custodians, two of those assigned to the day shift. She said time was built into the schedules to allow for special assignments, and did not believe Mr. DeBose had more special assignments than other employees.

PRETERMINATION HEARING - ANDRE DeBOSE (Continued)

Summary of Closing Statements Respondent: Ms. Robinson Ray stated Mr. DeBose's failure to satisfactorily perform his duties was documented in the Significant Event Reports; that teachers and his supervisors have complained about his work; and that despite progressive discipline and attempts by his supervisors, his performance has not come up to standard. She stated the work he was assigned and the area he was assigned could be cleaned in an eight-hour shift and that it is currently being cleaned within eight hours.

PRETERMINATION HEARING ANDRE DeBOSE (Continued)

Appellant: Mr. Moore stated that Mr. DeBose had an excessive amount of work assigned; that after he intervened on Mr. DeBose’s behalf in the fall of 1988, even more work was assigned to Mr. DeBose. He said Mr. DeBose was the sole support of his family, and asked that Mr. DeBose be given another chance and moved to a different building that is not in Mrs. Shirley's supervision district.

REPORT

Ms. Laurie Jones, substituting for general counsel Ron Day, reported as follows on a current legal matter:

ATTORNEY'S REPORT

Dowell V. Board of Education "Currently, the case is on appeal at the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals. Oral arguments were held September 6, 1988. Unfortunately, to date we do not have any opinion from the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals. There are several other desegregation cases which are on appeal to the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals, also. The original Brown v. Board of Education case out of Topeka, Kansas, is in another round of appeals. That case is pending; also, the Keyes case from Denver is on appeal to the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals. "Any guess as to why this process has been so lengthy at this stage would be mere surmise on my part, but we expect that it has taken so long to get an opinion because the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals has eight volumes of transcript from this case to review and numerous exhibits which contain a lot of information themselves. Also, we speculate that the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals wants to come out with consistent rulings in the Topeka case, the Denver There are issues that are similar in all Keyes case and this case, three cases. All three cases on oral argument were heard by of judges, I would anticipate that for different panels consistency's sake they may be discussing these matters, and I anticipate, hopefully, a decision some time this summer."

BOARD BOARD MEMBER RESIGNATION LaRUE DONWERTH

MEMBERS’

COMMENTS

Resignation of Board Member Mrs. Donwerth made the following statement: "As you’re all aware by now, I have sold my home in District 7. Although I'm still in the Oklahoma City School District, I have moved out of the area from which they elected me to serve on the Oklahoma City Board of Education. Therefore, it is with regret that I must tender my resignation from the Oklahoma City Board of Education, effective May 15, 1989. "I do want to thank the citizens of District 7 for the great honor they've given me by electing me for two terms to be their representative. I also want to thank my fellow Board members, the administrative staff, and all those involved with 1-89, for your friendship and your support, and for the hours of thankless dedication to the boys and girls of the Oklahoma City Schools. You may have my respect and gratitude. "And to the teachers, the counselors, the principals, and the support personnel, my undying admiration. You're there on the front lines on a day-to-day basis. I know we have the finest, the brightest and the most talented personnel of any school district. You're the ones that make it work.

COMMENTS

Resignation of Board Member (Continued)

"As I began packing to move, I sorted through a big chunk of memories. It’s unbelievable the experiences I’ve been fortunate enough to have because I was a member of the Oklahoma City School Board. Some are not so good, but in many cases you often forget the bad and only remember the good.

BOARD MEMBER RESIGNATION LaRUE DONWERTH (Continued)

"So now I’ve turned in my briefcase and they’ve picked up my file cabinet, which, incidentally, has been in my family for 15 years. Now I’ll find out if there is life after school board. For over 15 years, my calendar has revolved around Monday night school board meetings and all those special meetings. I’ll think of you all every Monday night as I get ready for bed like a normal person at a normal time. There’s no doubt I’ll have withdrawals from time to time. Just know I’ll be following everything, always caring about 1-89. And I hope you’ll continue to keep a sense of humor as you continue working toward excellence in the knowledge that all children can learn. "I will have one final act after tonight. Next Tuesday evening it will be my privilege to once again present diplomas to the graduating seniors of Southeast High School. "In closing, I’d like to publicly say how much I love my family and my predecessor. So, now. Madam President, I would ask the Board to please accept this as my resignation from the Oklahoma City, 1-89, Board of Education, and that this be acted on this evening."

MOTION CARRIED 6-0. During discussion, members of the Board expressed appreciation for Mrs. Donwerth’s service on the Board. Mr. Hise commented that a Donwerth had occupied a seat on the Board since 1974, and that the community and school district was losing a great supporter and worker. Mr. Fogarty said Mrs. Donwerth’s counsel to him as a new board member had been invaluable. Mrs. Hill said the Board would continue to call on Mrs. Donwerth. Mrs. Parks said she would remember Mrs. Donwerth’s reminder to the Board to "keep a little humor". Mrs. Floyd thanked Mrs. Donwerth for her loyalty and all she has done for the Board and for the children of the school district. Dr. Steller noted that Mrs. Donwerth was widely respected for her positions on issues, and that she was a "professional" Board member. Dr. Steller presented a plaque to Mrs. Donwerth, which read as follows: "To LaRue Donwerth for outstanding service as President, Oklahoma City Board of Education, 1985-86, and Member, June 7, 1982 to May 15, 1989."

Mr. Fogarty stated his motion was offered in the spirit of compromise, and was intended to allow time to deal with the patrons, staff, students and the residents of the community between now and the end of the next school year to effect a smoother transition. He said the school district has to deal with the reality that it has more facilities than it can possibly maintain and still deliver a quality education.

PRETERMINATION HEARING - MAURICE HUNTER (Continued)

Opening Statements

Respondent: The administration's recommendation was that Maurice Hunter be terminated on the grounds of willful violation of school laws. Board policies and administrative regulations. On April 6, 1989, at the Page Woodson cafeteria, Mr. Hunter, in his capacity as a custodian, physically jerked, pushed, and struck a student with a belt. The administration’s position was that this conduct was outrageous, uncalled for, and out of line with the job duties of a custodian, and outside the policy regarding employee conduct and the Board's policy for corporal punishment.

PRETERMINATION HEARING MAURICE HUNTER (Continued)

Appellant: The union's position was that Mr. Hunter had been a loyal employee of the school district for seven years, was well-respected by his co-workers, and that he was forced to take disciplinary action against a student because certified personnel present at the time did not do so. The union contended that custodians should not be expected supervise the cafeteria during lunchtime, but should only be there to clean up afterwards. Summary of Testimony John Weaver, Respondent's witnesses: Jones-Morris, Dorothy Nordahl, Carol Randle.

John Borgert, Anita Cappo, and Raymond

He was allowed to work at the laundry for the last couple of months, and supervisor said he did a decent job. Mr. James should be allowed to work in the laundry until his retirement.

PRETERMINATION HEARING EARNEST JAMES (Continued)

Summary of Testimony Respondent’s witnesses: Raymond Randle, Mark Reed

Testimony concerned Mr. James’ work history, physical condition, and employee counseling. Dr. Bill Mask, the physician employed by the District to perform pre-employment physical examinations for the District, examined Mr. James on January 27, 1989. Dr. Mask recommended that Mr. James should apply for Social Security disability and should be under a doctor’s care for hypertension. In addition. Dr. Mask wrote in his report, "Patient is not able for gainful employment due to history and physical examination." The negotiated agreement with the OCFCE lists "failure to satisfactorily perform the required functions of the position" as a justifiable reason for dismissal. Appellant’s witnesses:

Earnest James

Mr. James testified concerning his attendance, the physical examination performed by Dr. Mask, and medication he takes for high blood pressure. Summary of Closing Statements Respondent: The administration's position was that Mr. James was physically unfit for gainful employment; and that the District had made reasonable efforts to accommodate him and had tried to help him secure some sort of income (Social Security, etc.).

Appellant: Mr. Moore stated that Mr. James was a "victim of circumstance", did not have health insurance, and could not afford a second medical opinion in order to refute the findings of Dr. Mask. Executive Session MOTION: SECOND:

Significant Event Report on Sandra Ellis completed by Jennifer Burch, Area Supervisor, dated 2-15-89.

Opening Statements Complainant: The union’s position was that Sandra Ellis' supervisor, Jennifer Burch, was not responsive to Ms. Ellis’ complaint concerning the cafeteria manager’s alleged harassment of her because of her inability to read. The union contended that Ms. Ellis should not have been transferred to another cafeteria (Rogers Middle School) after Ms. Ellis filed a Level II grievance.

Respondent: The administration’s position was that the source of the conflict in the Star Spencer cafeteria was Mrs. Ellis’ inability to read well. Because she could not read the recipes, she could not bake properly and in the proper quantities. Mrs. Burch, the supervisor, gave Ms. Ellis telephone numbers to call for free tutoring to learn how to read, and administration has made every effort to assist Ms. Ellis with her reading disability.

Summary of Testimony

Appellant’s witnesses: Jennifer Burch

Pauline Connelly,

Sandra Ellis,

and

Ms. Connelly described the working climate in the kitchen as "tense", discussed the relationship between Ms. Ellis and Ms. Ziegler, and stated she didn’t know until recently that Ms. Ellis could not read.

Ms. Ellis testified concerning the events leading up to her filing of a grievance, her transfer to Rogers Middle School and subsequent filing of a complaint. She said she got a reading tutor in November and has been working with the tutor. Ms. Ellis alleged the Star Spencer cafeteria manager criticized her work and reminded her that she could not read. She stated she had been doing the same job for nine years. Ms. Burch, Area Supervisor, described her involvement in the situation since she started with the District in October. She said Ms. Ellis was given a Plan for Improvement because she could not read well, and products produced were not up to standard; also, that Ms. Ellis was transferred to Rogers because she had not followed through with the Plan for Improvement and needed a position that did not require reading. »•

REPORT

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

Vo-Tech 22 v. 1-89 "Late last month, Vo-Tech District 22 filed a declaratory judgment action against the Oklahoma City School District in connection with a lease/purchase agreement it entered into with the school district in 1982 for the purchase of the Foster Estes Vo-Tech facility for a contract price of over $3,000,000. In this lawsuit, which is filed in the District Court of Oklahoma County, Vo-Tech 22 is seeking to reduce the ultimate purchase price, or in the alternative, the amount of its monthly lease/purchase payments by 46%. That percentage is the amount the State Vo-Tech Department allegedly contributed to the project when it was originally constructed. Also, they’re seeking reimbursement for alleged overpayments they’ve made since 1982 based on this 46% figure. Our answer date is June

Vo-Tech 22

REPORT V.

1-89 (continued)

13, and we will file an appropriate pleading on behalf of the Board at that time. We’re also reviewing the case to determine the advisability of filing a counter-claim against Vo-Tech 22 to recover the value of the personal property owned by this school district which has been in their possession since 1982. I’ll be providing you with a recommendation on that shortly.

Teacher Due Process

"The District has three tenured teacher termination cases pending at this time. Our firm is handling the Harwood case, and we have a hearing judge in that case, Mr. Michael Morgan. He’s an attorney in Stillwater. Today, Mr. Morgan called and advised that he had tentatively scheduled a hearing for June 29 pending approval with the teacher’s representative. We’ve also learned that Mr. Huff with the AFT will be representing the teacher in that case. "The Leo Thompson case is being handled by associate general counsel, Ms. Ray. They have selected a hearing judge in that case, Ms. Leslie Ellis Kissinger from Tulsa. They’ve (the Union) also selected a hearing panelist, Mr. George McCaffrey of Oklahoma City.

"Robert Alexander is handling the Nancy Taylor case. The teacher’s representative is Lana Tyree, and it’s my understanding they’re in the process of selecting a hearing judge. "In the latter two cases, we would anticipate that the due process hearings will be scheduled and conducted in the latter part of June or early part of July this year.

OESCO V. 1-89 "In the case suit that the had a motion District from

of OESCO v. ISD-89 and Collins-Soter Engineering, a District’s been involved in since 1986, we recently for summary judgment sustained, releasing the School the case.

"You’ll recall that in 1985 OESCO was the low bidder on electrical projects at thirty-one schools in the District. They entered into a contract with the District and conducted the work, and about a year later the company submitted a request for a change order in the amount of $100,000 after they had already been paid the full price stipulated in the contract. Back in the summer of ’86, the District denied that claim because the company failed to comply with the change order conditions in the contract. The change order conditions required that any extra or additional work be approved by the Board, in writing, before the work was undertaken.

"When the Board denied the claim, OESCO filed suit and the summary judgment that we filed was based on the same rationale that the Board used in rejecting the claim. Judge Owens agreed. He found that the change order provisions were not complied with and dismissed the District from the suit. The case was to go to trial today. The co-defendant, Collins-Soter Engineering, remains in the case. It’s my understanding that for some reason it did not go to trial as scheduled, and it’s rescheduled for October 10 (1989). "One of the nice things about this victory is that this is a suit on a contract concerning labor and materials, and by statute in Oklahoma, the prevailing party in any such case is entitled to recover their court costs and attorney’s fees. In the near future we will be preparing an application to tax court costs and attorney fees against OESCO, asking that the court reimburse this district for all costs and attorney’s fees they have incurred in this litigation to date. OESCO has thirty days to appeal that decision."

ROLL CALL

Mrs. Hill, aye Mr. Fogarty, aye Mrs. Parks, aye

Mr. Hise, aye Mrs. Floyd, aye

MOTION CARRIED 5-0. Mr. Hise asked why teachers on non-continuing contracts in "critical" areas, such as special education, were not being placed on continuing contracts. Mr. Vern Moore, Executive Director of Personnel, explained that the District cannot place people on contracts, even in high demand areas, if they are employed less than 120 days during the school year, which he said is the case with the teachers listed in the agenda. He said many will be listed on the June 19 agenda for reemployment.

Dr. Steller made special mention of the resignation of Collen Smith, Administrator of Public Relations, who is leaving the District because of her husband’s transfer to another state.

LEVEL III COMPLAINT - SANDRA K. ELLIS

(Continuedl)

Ms. Jones stated that the complaint was partially heard on May 31, 1989. She noted that each Board member had received a transcript of those proceedings, and that the parties agreed there was no need to rehear the evidence and arguments presented on May 31. Ms. Ray recommended the Board dismiss the complaint based on the fact that the Level III Complaint as filed fails to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. The relief sought as stated in the complaint is as follows; "Jennifer Burch should act in a more professional manner. The harassment of Sandra must cease and desist." The relief sought did not address the transfer of Ms. Ellis to another site. Mr. Moore said Ms. Ellis wanted to be transferred back to Star Spencer High School, and claimed she was transferred to Rogers Middle School in retaliation for filing a Level II grievance. He also claimed he had an agreement with administration that Ms. Ellis would be returned to Star Spencer if she would withdraw the grievance.

Following discussion, the Board acted as follows in order for the transfer issue, as a part of the harassment claim, to be addressed at Level II: R. .#352 COMPLAINT OF SANDRA K. ELLIS REMANDED TO LEVEL II

LEVEL III COMPLAINT SANDRA K. ELL If AND PAULINE CONNELLY (Continued)

Based on the verbal reprimand given and the additional training imposed by her supervisors, it is the position of the Respondent that the relief requested in this complaint has been satisfied.

WHEREFORE, the Respondent respectfully requests that this matter be dismissed as the relief sought has been granted.

Attachments to the motion to dismiss included a copy of the Level III Complaint and a statement by Jennifer Burch, Area Supervisor, concerning management development undertaken by Ms. Ziegler.

Mr. Moore responded that supervisors should not be allowed to verbally "abuse people" and that he did not believe the relief granted was a sufficient response to the complaint at Level I and Level II. Mrs. Floyd made a motion that the Level III Complaint be dismissed based on the fact that the relief sought had been granted. The motion died for lack of a second. MOTION: SECOND:

COMMENTS/BUSINESS

Alleged Violation of Open Meeting Act ATTORNEY ' S REPORT

Mr. Ronald Day, General Counsel, reported concerning an violation of the Open Meeting Act at the June 12, 1989 Meeting of the Board as follows:

alleged Special

"We received a letter from the District Attorney last Friday indicating that if certain allegations were true, he was of the opinion that there had been a violation of the Open Meeting Law. I met with the District Attorney and he suggested that I personally look into the allegations so I could advise you. I’ve also researched the pertinent law to determine what impact any alleged violation may have on the action taken by the Board at the June 12 meeting. "We start with a basic proposition under the Open Meeting Act that any action taken in willful violation of the act shall be invalid. So the initial question is whether or not a willful violation occurred. In sn appeal of an order declaring annexation dated June 28, 1978, a decision handed down by the Court of Appeals in 1981, the Court stressed that in order for a violation to be willful it is not necessary that it be in bad faith, it is not necessary that it be malicious, it is not necessary that it be obstinate, it does not have to be with premeditated or evil design, or even with the intent to do wrong. The Court concluded that the goal of the Open Meeting Act was not simply to prevent deliberate violations, and the Court found in that case that there was a willful violation even though officials may not have consciously known they were violating the law. "My investigation indicates that that is precisely what happened on June the 12th; that there was no action taken in bad faith, maliciously, nothing done with premeditated evil design, but an error took place that, in my opinion, constitutes a willful violation under that definition and invalidated the action that the Board took on June 12th to appoint a Board member for District Number Seven.

"The next question is, if you have a willful violation, what can you do, if anything, to correct it? We're fortunate in that the Attorney General has previously spoken to this precise issue. In Opinion No. 81-214, the Attorney General stated--and I'm going to read to you directly from the text. If you have any doubt as to whether the violations were willful, you must reconsider those actions taken in violation of the act. Such a procedure would avoid costly and time-consuming litigation which might arise because of the failure to comply with the Open Meeting Act.

Lastly, the Attorney General would call your attention to the following language of the Oklahoma Court of Appeals in the matter if the appeal of the order declaring annexation dated June 28, 1978. In that case, the Court stated, "The Courts hold that subsequent events such as ratifying actions or decisions previously made in violation of the Open Meeting laws will not cure the violation, will not breathe life into the prior illegal action. "Applying this principle to the facts presented, it would appear that any rehabilitative action taken must include a full reevaluation. I repeat--a full reevaluation of the matters considered in violation of the Open Meeting Act. Of course, meetings held to reconsider these matters must be held in compliance with the Open Meeting Act.

W-3 BOARD

MEMBER

COMMENTS/BUSINESS

Alleged Violation of Open Meeting Act (Continued) "So, based on law and the facts as I know them, it’s my recommendation that the Board move to find that there was a violation of the Open Meeting Act at the Board's meeting on June 12, 1989, which invalidates the Board’s action at that meeting; and, that in order to correct this error that the Board call a special meeting to reinterview and reconsider all previous applicants and attempt to appoint a Board member for Election District Number Seven."

During discussion, Mr. Day stated he was assured by Robert Mitchell, chief of the civil division, that if the Board took action to correct the violation, their office intended to do nothing further. Mr. Day said he believed they realized the matter was an oversight or an error. He further explained his recommendation was intended to eliminate any question about whether or not any action of the Board is properly taken. Mr. Hise stated he did not believe a violation had occurred, and took issue with the requirement that the Board acknowledge a willful violation of the Open Meeting Act. He noted that the Board had received a letter from Mr. Chandler encouraging the Board to reinterview and reappoint a person to fill the District Seven office.

MOTION: SECOND:

Kay Floyd Mike Fogarty

THAT THE BOARD FIND THAT THERE WAS A VIOLATION OF THE OPEN MEETING ACT AT THE BOARD’S JUNE 12, 1989 MEETING, WHICH INVALIDATES THE BOARD'S DECISION AT THAT MEETING; AND TO CORRECT THIS ERROR, THAT THE BOARD CALL A SPECIAL MEETING TO REINTERVIEW T^ND RECONSIDER ALL PREVIOUS APPLICANTS AND ATTEMPT TO APPOINT A BOARD MEMBER FOR ELECTION DISTRICT NUMBER SEVEN.

Opening Statements

Respondent: Administration recommended termination due to the discharge of students at an unauthorized stop, in violation of Board policy. While driving a route from North Highland Elementary School on Friday, May 8, 1989, at approximately 3 p.m., a rainy afternoon, Harvey Patton made an unauthorized stop and discharged two students from his bus approximately five blocks away from their home. The stop was allegedly due to a disturbance on the bus, but testimony will show he threatened two students with a stick and put them off the bus. School administration was made aware of the incident after the students informed their parents, accusing Mr. The parents Patton of actually striking them with the stick, and school called the police, the police investigated, administration was notified. Appellant: The union’s position was that Harvey Patton, an employee of the District for six years, discharged some unruly students who had gotten into a fight. He was forced to stop the bus to try to bring order on the bus. He was cursed by the students, who jumped off the bus.

PRETERMINATION HEARING - HARVEY PATTON (Continued) Summary of Testimony

Respondent’s Witnesses:

Mike Brown and Mark Reed

PRETERMINATION HEARING HARVEY PATTON (Continued)

Mr. Brown testified concerning a memorandum Mr. Patton and other drivers received giving explicit instructions that no student is to be removed from a bus for any cause except by Mr. Brown's authorization or that of another department supervisor. He also testified concerning bus driver training and operational expectations and procedures. He said every bus is equipped with a two-way radio, and field testing proved the radio on Mr. Patton's bus was in working order. He said under emergency conditions a driver may let students off the bus; however, a student fight situation may or may not fall in that category. Mr. Reed testified concerning the pre-disciplinary hearing he conducted for Harvey Patton, at which Mr. Patton waived his right to representation. During the hearing, Mr. Patton denied striking the children with a stick. He admitted using it to intimidate them, and did not deny putting them off the bus at a stop other than their authorized stop. Mr. Reed stated that he conducted an investigation of the matter, and discussed the incident with the school principal. The principal interviewed 16-20 student witnesses, but none could corroborate the students' claim that they were hit with the stick.

Appellant’s Witnesses:

Harvey Patton

Mr. Patton testified concerning his version of the events. He said he had previously submitted written reports on the three students in question to the principal because of behavior problems on the bus. He said when the fight broke out in the back of the bus, he warned them, then pulled over to the side of the road and set the brake. He said the stick, which he uses to check the bus tires, rolled out from under his seat, and he had it in his hand when he addressed the students. He said he told the students if they didn't stop fighting, "they could walk home, if they wanted to, the rest of the way." He stated he invited them to leave only as a "gesture"--to try to bring order on the bus. He testified that the students exited through the front door of the bus, cursing him and threatening him as they left.

Summary of Closing Statements

Respondent: Ms. Ray stated the evidence established that on Friday, May 12, a rainy afternoon, at approximately 3 p.m., Mr. Harvey Patton stopped the bus, pursuant to his own testimony and admissions made to Mr. Mark Reed, to break up a student altercation. She said using the stick to intimidate the students was highly inappropriate behavior; and that drivers are not to make unauthorized stops or allow children to exit at any stop other than designated stops or at the school. Ms. Ray recommended termination of Mr. Patton's employment.

Appellant: Mr. Moore said it was frightening to consider what would have happened if Mr. Patton had not stopped the bus. He said the two students chose to leave the bus, and that Mr. Patton denied threatening the students with the stick. He said the students left the bus voluntarily, and made up a story about being hit with the stick, and that the police report exonerated Mr. Patton of that charge. He asked the Board to consider that Mr. Patton had received no previous discipline for this type of incident.

COMMENTS/BUSINESS

Discussion of Possible Violation of Open Meeting Act The Board discussed a possible violation of the Open Meeting Act during the Board’s May 22, 1989 special meeting which might invalidate the Board's action at that meeting with respect to the retirement of Southeast High School.

DISCUSSION OF POSSIBLE VIOLATION OF OPEN MEETING ACT

Mr. Ronald Day, General Counsel, made the following report: "On the evening of June 28, I was contacted by the superintendent and provided with specific information indicating there may have been an unintentional violation of the Open Meeting Act at the May 22, 1989 School Board meeting when the Board made the decision to retire the Southeast High School facility at the end of the 89-90 school year.

"From what I can determine, and I don't know exactly what was said or what was done—I was not there--it appears that there may have been some discussion among certain Board members during a recess before the final action was taken. From what I can determine, this was done in this room, where you are now, in front of an audience. So it appears to me that if there were a violation, it was not intentional. But under the law, the fact that it's not intentional is really not the test.

"We have two Attorney General opinions which provide guidance. The first is A.G. Opinion No. 81-69. The first thing that opinion does is define what 'business' is. 'Business' is not defined in the Open Meeting Act. There, the Attorney General pointed out that although 'business' is not defined by the act, it should be assumed to include the entire decision-making process,including deliberation, decision or formal action. So, 'business’ includes the entire decision-making process. "Then we have to deal with Title 25, Section 306, of the Open Meeting Act which states very clearly that ' no informal gatherings among a majority of the members of a public body shall be used to decide any action or to take any vote on any matter. In A.G. Opinion No. 81-69, the Attorney General points out that this prohibition against this type of decision-making is not dependent upon whether a majority of the members of the governing body gather together at the same place at the same time or in the presence of each other. Therefore, if an item is discussed between a few of you--less than a majority—and then from there it goes to others and those total discussions lead to a decision, then there is a problem according to this Attorney General’s opinion.

"Next we need to look at what is the possible impact of a violation—what is required under the law. The Attorney General in Opinion No. 81-214, again, has given specific guidance. The Open Meeting Act states that any action taken in willful violation is invalid. A few weeks ago we discussed what 'willful' meant; what constitutes 'willful action to invalidate Board action.' The courts and the A.G. have pointed out that it does not have to be intentional, it does not have to be in bad faith, it does not have to be malicious, obstinate, with premeditated evil design or an intent to do wrong. In one case, the court found that even where the officials may not have consciously broken the law, they were found to have done so. So the test is not whether there was an intent to

"In this Opinion No. 81-214, the Attorney General goes on to advise you as to what needs to be done if you think there may be a violation. He states, ’If you have any doubt as to whether the violations were willful, you must reconsider those actions taken in violation of the act. Such a procedure would avoid costly and time-consuming litigation which might arise because of the failure to comply with the Open Meeting Act. Lastly, the Attorney General would call your attention to the following language of the Oklahoma Court of Appeals in the matter of the appeal of the order declaring annexation dated June 28, 1978 supra. In that case the court stated, ’The courts hold that subsequent events such as ratifying actions or decisions previously made in violation of the Open Meeting Laws will not cure the violation, will not breathe life into the prior illegal action.’ And then the Attorney General said, ’Applying this principle to the facts presented, it would appear that any rehabilitative action must include a full reevaluation of the matters considered in violation of the Open Meeting Act. ’ ’’

Walter Long, patron, 10 Alexis Court, spoke about suspension of Board policies F-11 and B-33 and reasons to keep the school open. John Havenstein, patron, 226 S. E. 54, commented about the quality of education at the school and costs to repair or renovate the facility. Michelle Lee Blancett, U. S. Grant High School student, 5433 South Linn Avenue, said Southeast needs to be renovated or rebuilt. Jim Earp, patron, 5822 South Robinson, spoke about declining enrollment and SEHS facility repairs. Randy Marshall, patron, 1132 S. W. 27, commented about student transfers and demographic issues. Ruben De La Cruz, patron, 2125 S. W. 78, commented on student transfers, enrollment, and the school’s quality education. Tom Yeargain, patron and Chairman, Council for Educational Opportunities, 620 S. W. 69, spoke about enrollment and letters sent to students and parents about transfers.

Discussion and Action Mr. Chandler discussed the Southeast High School retirement review. He questioned the cost savings of retirement and stated he was not convinced that Southeast was the high school that should be closed, based on utilization and other factors. He said he believed Southeast could absorb enrollment from other areas; that he did not see curriculum offerings being reduced district-wide; and that he believed closing would leave the southeast quadrant of the city without a high school.

Mrs. Floyd responded to some of the concerns expressed by Mr. Chandler. She stated the cost savings issue could not be ignored, and that she was most concerned about the quality of programs that can be offered to all of the District’s students.

REPORT

Mr. Ronald Day, as follows:

General Counsel,

reported on current legal matters

ATTORNEY'S REPORT

OESCO V. 1-89 "Judge Owens sustained our motion for summary judgement in that case in the latter part of May and dismissed us from the suit. The plaintiffs filed a motion for new trial. We have reviewed it and prepared a response on behalf of the District. That is set for hearing before Judge Owens on July 7. I would be rather surprised if the Judge would reverse his ruling at this time."

Dowell Case "We still have no decision from the Tenth Circuit. An interesting note about the Tenth Circuit, however: they did hand down a decision in Brown v. the Topeka Board (of Education). That's the original desegregation case, you'll recall, that the Supreme Court decided in 1955. The federal district court in the Topeka case--not the Tenth Circuit but the federal district court—found that over time the Topeka Board had become a unitary school district in all respects. The Tenth Circuit recently reversed and said, no, they haven't, there were still some disparities in some of the schools with respect to the racial balances involved. The court also found that they were not unitary with respect to staff assignments; that there were still some problems in the racial balance of the staff assignments. "It's interesting that Judge Seymour who sat for the oral arguments last September in Dowell wrote the Topeka decision. Also, Judge Baldock who sat in our case last September sat on the Topeka panel and dissented. There are some material differences between the two cases, and Judge Seymour points those out in her decision in Topeka. One of the major distinguishing facets is that Topeka had never been declared unitary, whereas in Oklahoma City we were declared unitary in 1977. Also, Judge Seymour points out that Topeka never undertook a compulsory desegregation plan and implemented that in efforts to cure past discrimination. They just simply went to a neighborhood school system and left it at that and that's what they've been doing since 1955. They've opened some schools, closed some.

"In summary, the Tenth Circuit found that they had not taken all reasonable steps they could take to desegregate the district. And I think by contrast, you can see in Oklahoma City that even after the District was found unitary they continued to implement the tenets of the Finger Plan for eight more years. I've analyzed the Topeka decision carefully, and I feel that there are definite distinguishing characteristics between our two cases which would serve a basis for the Tenth Circuit to rule differently in Dowell if they had the mind to do so."

REPORT

Vo-Tech 22 V. 1-89

"In the lawsuit that Vo-Tech 22 filed against this district concerning the Foster Estes facility, we received notice today that the Steward and Culbert firm was withdrawing from handling that case and that Ted Poole was being substituted for Vo-Tech 22. Our answer date was today. We prepared and filed an answer on behalf of this school district, Previously I reported that we may want to consider a counter-claim. I’ve discussed this with Mr. Shepard, and we've determined that there's some information that we need that’s only in the hands of Vo-Tech 22 before we can make that decision. So we're going to pursue some discovery to try to get that information, and if we think such a claim is appropriate, we'll bring that back to the Board at a later date for consideration." Teacher Due Process Hearings

"We have three teacher termination hearings scheduled. We now have the final dates on that. The Leo Thompson case and the Jerry Trout-Harwood case are both scheduled for hearing on July 13. The Nancy Taylor case is presently set for July 20, but a witness is out of town and there's a motion for continuance pending in that."

R. #8 GENERAL BUSINESS ITEM 2 APPROVED 89-90 CONTRACT FOR CAMPUS SECURITY SERVICES

MOTION CARRIED 7-0. 2.

Contract for Campus Security Services

Approval to continue an agreement with the City of Oklahoma City whereby City agrees to furnish campus security, monitoring of security and energy management systems, and other police services for the district beginning July 1, 1989 through June 30, 1990 at a cost not to exceed $440,000.

Discussion Mrs. Parks asked what kind of relationship has existed between the officers and the students. Dr. Steller responded that from what he has seen and heard at the high school level, the officers have a very good rapprot with the students and know a great many of them. He said the relationships at diffeent buildings vary, depending on how the principals use the officers. In some cases the officers go into classrooms and make presentations; in other buildings, they are used as "patrol" officers. Dr. Steller discussed the contract with the City of Oklahoma City for campus security services. He stated the contract was essentially the same as the previous one-year contracts, with the addition of one more officer and police car for the 1989-90 contract. That officer will serve as a substitute for officers who cannot report to work due to illness, etc., as well as providing additional coverage for the middle schools. He stated the District’s principals are very satisfied with the service. An annual report on vandalism, break-ins, etc., will be a part of the annual statistical profile to be published after the end of the fiscal year.

During discussion of the motion, Mr. Hise expressed concern about the increasing cost of the contract services. Mr. Hise stated he believed that when the original contract was approved on December 7, 1987, that the cost of the contract would not exceed $388,000 per year for any succeeding year.

UNFINISHED

BUSINESS

Mrs. Parks asked how the contract for mowing services could have been brought back to the Board on June 29 after it had previously come before the Board and was not approved. She said she had nothing against the company (Tierra Vista), but was still very concerned about people hired by the school district for seasonal jobs not being given the opportunity to be rehired. Dr. Steller responded that the new contract on the June 29 agenda was a different contract from the one the Board first considered, addressing such items as minority hiring, minority supervisors, and time periods when lawn care services would be performed.

Mrs. Parks asked Dr. Isch what was gong to be done about those persons who were hired for seasonal work and then terminated. She said several people had been terminated (and not rehired). She asked if they had been considered for lawn mowing positions. Dr. Isch, Director of Service Center Operations, explained that none of the persons employed for seasonal work were promised jobs for the next season, and that no positions had been posted. Dr. Steller said some of the people who were on the grounds crew were hired in other positions. In addition, he said representatives of Tierra Vista had mentioned that they would consider hiring anybody the District referred to them.

COMMENTS

Mrs. Parks stated she had made a request of the Vocational Department some time ago to determine whether or not cosmetology could again be offered at Douglass High School. She felt since the District was considering enriching and improving the course offerings at the schools which will remain open, offering cosmetology at Douglass could attract students to the school. Dr. Carolyn Hughes, Assistant Superintendent, Curriculum and Program Development, said she would look into it and provide a report.

Discussion of Second Impressions Mrs. Parks explained some of her concerns relative to the publication of "Second Impressions", a weekly compilation of newspaper articles, press releases and photos about the school district. Her concerns included duplication of the same photographs, and activity schedules and other unnecessary information (paper waste). She wanted to know to whom the publication was distributed and for what purpose. She said she didn’t see a genuine purpose for copying these items which have already been published. Mrs. Parks said it was her opinion that Second Impressions is a waste of time and money that could be better spent in the purchase of textbooks and supplies.

Dr. Steller explained that every article published about the District should be included in "Second Impressions"; that no articles are screened. The clippings are distributed to Board members, cabinet members, and the Foundation. Mr. Kellert spoke in support of Second Impressions, saying he believed it was worthwhile. Mr. Fogarty favored receiving all articles and information items, and viewed it as a "clipping service". Mr. Fogarty and Mr. Chandler said they wanted to receive the press releases. Mrs. Floyd said she wanted to see Second Impressions continue, but agreed that sometimes the best use of paper is not made (inefficient use of space, etc.).

It was agreed that scores from athletic events do not need to be included unless accompanied by an article, and that the press releases will continue to be included.

Summary of Opening Statements

Grievant: It was the Union's position that according to his job description. Bob Shoemake is responsible for making out work schedules for the building custodial staff. Although the principal and area plant manager must approve the schedules, it is not the area plant manager's right to undermine the head custodian's authority by assuming this duty. The area plant manager has ignored the errors Mr. Shoemake has pointed out in the schedule.

MINUTES OF SPECIAL MEETING OF JULY 10, 1989 M-3:

SPECIAL

BUSINESS

LEVEL III GRIEVANCE HEARING - BOB SHOEMAKE (Continued) Summary of Opening Statements (continued)

Respondent: Administration's position was that Mrs. Shirley, as area plant manager and Mr. Shoemake's supervisor, and as outlined in her job description, has the authority to approve work schedules that are developed by the head custodian, to intervene and develop schedules when Mr. Shoemake does not do so in a prompt and efficient manner, and to supervise him in general. The issues are whether or not Mrs. Shirley abused her authority and discretion when she made out work schedules herself when they were not timely submitted by Mr. Shoemake, and whether or not Mrs. Shirley's actions went beyond her authority as area plant manager. Summary of Testimony

Grievant's Witnesses:

Raymond Randle, Mary Shirley, Bob Shoemake

Mr. Randle testified concerning work schedules and the job descriptions of area plant manager and head custodian. He said he had no record of work schedules Mr. Shoemake claimed he prepared in July 1988 and turned in to Mr. Lawrence, the area plant manager who preceded Mrs. Shirley. The schedules prepared by Mrs. Shirley were turned in to Mr. Randle in September, 1988. Mr. Shoemake submitted a set of schedules to Mrs. Shirley in March 1989, recommending changes. A second set of schedules was turned in to Mr. Randle during April 1989. Mr. Randle said that to his knowledge, Mr. Shoemake first submitted schedules he had prepared in November of 1988. He said Mr. Shoemake had not neglected to prepare schedules in previous years. Mrs. Shirley testified that she became area plant manager responsible for Northwest Classen in August of 1988. She said Mr. Shoemake did not respond to her request for schedules, so she prepared them herself. She said she did not check to see whether Mr. Shoemake had already turned in schedules. Mrs. Shirley said she turned in her schedules to Mr. Randle in September, and then others in March 1989 (schedules that were given to her by Mr. Shoemake). She also testified about errors on the schedules she had prepared. She said Mr. Shoemake gave her some work schedules in November for Donald Smith, and submitted others in March, some of which she denied, and others she approved.

Mrs. Shirley and Mr. Randle also responded to questions from Mr. Kellert concerning the work schedules. Mr. Shoemake testified concerning work schedules that he said he had prepared and those that Mrs. Shirley prepared, which were used during the year. He said that in late June or early July, 1988, he submitted schedules, which he did not sign, to the previous area plant manager, Mr. Lawrence. He did not keep copies of those schedules. He said he told Mrs. Shirley that he had already turned schedules in to Mr. Lawrence, and that he did not assist Mrs. Shirley in the preparation of the schedules she prepared and submitted to Mr. Randle.

Respondent's Witnesses:

(None)

Ms. Ray stated the grievant had not proved any abuse of authority on Mrs. Shirley's behalf; also, that no evidence had been presented to substantiate the grievant's claim of harassment. The respondent asked that the Board dismiss the matter.

Mr. Moore responded that he believed evidence had been presented to prove Mr. Shoemake's allegations. He contended that administration took away Mr. Shoemake's authority for scheduling in reprisal for previous grievances.

BUSINESS

LEVEL III GRIEVANCE HEARING - BOB SHOEMAKE (Continued) Summary of Closing Statements

Grievant: The union's position was that Mr. Shoemake did not refuse to turn in a work schedule; that he turned schedules in early to Mr. Lawrence, then went on vacation. Mr. Moore asserted that if Mr. Shoemake had actually made no response when asked for schedules by Mrs. Shirley, he should have received a written reprimand. Mr. Moore said he had a meeting with Mr. Randle in March during which time he reviewed and compared both the schedules Mr. Shoemake claimed to have turned in to Mr. Lawrence, and the schedules Mrs. Shirley had prepared. Respondent: It was the respondent's position that Mrs. Shirley, as Mr. Shoemake's supervisor, has the authority to direct his activities and to write work schedules if he fails to submit them in a timely fashion. He did not submit schedules to Mrs. Shirley in August or September. No evidence was presented that she abused her authority or in any manner; there was no evidence that he was in any way disciplined, reprimanded or reduced in compensation, with or without cause. There was no evidence presented of any reprisal on the part of Mrs. Shirley or anyone in administration for Mr. Shoemake's participation in numerous grievance.

AS TO THE ALLEGED VIOLATION OF ARTICLE VI, SECTION 3(A), WHICH READS, "NO EMPLOYEE SHALL BE DISCIPLINED, REPRIMANDED OR REDUCED IN COMPENSATION WITHOUT CAUSE, I PROPOSE A FINDING THAT THERE HAS NOT BEEN SUFFICIENT EVIDENCE TO FIND A VIOLATION OF THIS PARAGRAPH OF THE CONTRACT. WITH REGARD TO THE SECOND ALLEGED VIOLATION, ARTICLE V, SECTION 3(F), "NO REPRISAL SHALL BE TAKEN BY ANY PARTY IN INTEREST IN THE NEGOTIATED AGREEMENT AGAINST ANY GRIEVANT, ANY OTHER PARTY IN INTEREST OR ANY OTHER PARTICIPANT IN THE GRIEVANCE PROCEDURE BY REASON OF SUCH PARTICIPATION." I PROPOSE A FINDING IN THIS MATTER THAT, AGAIN, THERE HAS NOT BEEN SUFFICIENT EVIDENCE PRESENTED TO CONCLUDE THAT A REPRISAL, IN FACT, EXISTED IN ANY WAY.

EQUITY COMMITTEE ANNUAL REPORT

4.

Equity Committee Annual Report Dr. William Price-Curtis, Equity/Affirmative Action Officer, introduced Reverend Gary E. Bender, Chairperson of the Equity Committee, to present the annual report. Reverend Bender highlighted the following recommendations. Mrs. Hill stated the Board would review the recommendations and respond to the Equity Committee in the immediate future. (A copy of the report is on file in the Office of the Clerk.)

Recommendations; 1)

Every school should start with the needed amount of instructional materials at the beginning of the school year.

.2)

All activity account monies from closed schools should be distributed to receiving schools in amounts which are proportional to the number of students being received (from closed schools).

3)

The Board of Education and Central Office Administrators should encourage the Adopt-A-School concept of having individual schools and students solicit various resources and contributions from businesses, social services organizations, and individuals (in the school’s geographical area).

4)

The Board of Education and Central Office Administrators should encourage the concept of having high school students tutor elementary students. While implementing the concept, an emphasis should be placed on having a racial mixture between tutors and the students who are being tutored.

5)

Service Center staff should be encouraged to follow Board policies for honoring written maintenance requests from principals and for maintaining school buildings according to Board of Education standards.

6)

A response to the Equity Committee’s 1988-89 Annual Report and the above recommendations should be forwarded to the Equity Committee Chairperson by October, 1989.

Reverend Bender said he expected the Committee’s first meeting of the 1989-90 school year to be held in September, 1989. Mrs. Parks expressed appreciation to the Committee for assembling the report. Reverend Bender recognized the Committee for their efforts and commended the writing committee: Ms. Tiana Douglass, Dr. Harold Crain, and Ms. Lawanna Bruner.

ATTORNEY'S REPORT

OESCO V. 1-89

"In the case of Oklahoma Electrical Supply Company v. the Oklahoma City Board of Education, I reported at the last regular meeting that the plaintiffs in that case had filed a motion for new trial before Judge Owens seeking to overturn his decision in favor of the school district in late May. Since that meeting, the motion was presented and we received word from Judge Owens that he has overruled and denied the plaintiffs' motion. Our next step in the case will be filing a motion to attempt to recoup school district's attorney's fees and costs in defending that suit. I anticipate that the plaintiffs' next step will be to appeal.

James Riper v. 1-89

"We had a new suit filed against the District on July 7 in Federal Court in Oklahoma City. It's a pro se case filed by Mr. James Kiper, who was a supervisory support person in 1987. He's alleging that he was demoted without due process. He's seeking back wages and benefits. We have an answer date of July 27, and we'll file an appropriate answer on behalf of the District in Federal Court at that time." TREASURER'S REPORT Ms. Ann Hsieh presented a routine Treasurer's report. (A copy of the written summary report will be maintained on file for five years in the Office of the Clerk, in compliance with state statutes.)

It is not that I have, personally, any opposition to the neighborhood school for the simple reason that, basically, the neighborhood school is not a program that one could not live with. But because of the ramifications and because of the lack of equitable distribution of supplies, teachers, equipment and what have you, I'm going to abstain on this particular motion based upon that particular element of the motion."

:H-2 LEGAL ATTORNEY'S REPORT

REPORT

Mr. Ronald Day, as follows:

General Counsel,

reported on current legal matters

Dowell Case

"We have not yet received that second opinion that the Tenth Circuit indicated would be forthcoming. You'll recall our timeline-petition for rehearing—in that matter is within two weeks after receipt of the second opinion or within eighty days after the time the opinion was first handed down. That eighty-day period will expire September 25." Teacher Due Process Hearings "Since the last regular meeting, we proceeded with two teacher termination cases, the Nancy Taylor case and the Jerry Diane Trout Harwood case. Both cases started on July 24. They were both conducted at the State Department of Education Oliver Hodge Building. Ms. Jones in our office handled the Harwood case. That was concluded on the 24th of July, A ruling is expected in that case at any time.

"I handled the Nancy Taylor case. We started it on the 24th and there was a recess. We reconvened and went all day on the 28th. And then also we went into the next week, August 1, 2, and 3, and the case was finally concluded at 2:30 in the morning on August 4. We have proposed findings of fact, which the hearing judge has requested in that case. They're due tomorrow evening and the hearing judge indicated that we should have a decision by the middle of August in that case."

James Riper v. ISD-89 "At the last regular meeting I reported that a new federal suit had been filed by Mr. James Riper in federal court in Oklahoma City. We reviewed that complaint and did some research and prepared a motion to dismiss and supporting brief on the grounds that sufficient facts are not alleged to invoke the jurisdiction of federal court. Mr. Riper will be required to respond to that within the next couple of weeks."

Other Legal Matters

Mr. Day reported that in the OESCO case. Judge Owens overruled plaintiff's motion for new trial and that their appeal time is running. They will have thirty days from that date to appeal. Day said his firm is also working on a motion to tax costs attorney's fees. He anticipated an appeal would be forthcoming.

the now Mr. and

In the Vo-Tech 22 case, he said although a motion and order allowing Stewart and Culbert to withdraw was received, he had not yet received a formal entry of appearance from Ted Poole.

Dr. Crawford then highlighted the Planning Indicators guide, giving examples of how it is used for setting goals by various members of staff and building principals. Dr. Crawford also presented the in-school planning indicators guide and discussed some of the variables of the guide, the way the information was established, and teacher acceptance in the schools where it was used.

Following discussion about effectiveness training and the need to get our new teachers and administrators trained, the Board recessed at 7:10 p.m. and reconvened at 7:40 p.m.

Dr. Purser reported on low achieving schools and led the discussion on that topic. She pointed out that nineteen Oklahoma City Public Schools fell below the state criteria and had been determined to be "at risk". Dr. Steller then began a discussion about closed campuses {secure campuses). Gloria Griffin, Director of High Schools, talked about the advantages of securing the campuses, including safety of the students and community and a better learning environment. She pointed out that for the District to be successful in securing the campuses, doors, gates, identification cards, better cafeteria menus, remodeling of cafeterias and additional staff are all needed. In a preliminary survey taken last year, over $4.7 million worth of work would be needed to make the schools physically secure. A bond issue would be an appropriate way to finance such an effort. A formal presentation on the bond issue needs was requested. According to the originally agreed-upon timetable, the final item for discussion. Board Goals, will be postponed until another time.

Our preliminary response to that petition will be due August 27, and thereafter the briefing schedule will commence.

Vo-Tech 22 v. 1-89 "In the Vo-Tech 22 case concerning Foster Estes, as of this date I've still not received an official appearance of counsel on behalf of Vo-Tech 22 since Mr. Steward withdrew.

Dowell V. 1-89 "In the Dowell case, we have not yet received the second opinion that we've been anticipating. However, there has been some activity. Last week the court clerk of the tenth circuit ordered the entire record and all of the exhibits from the Federal District court here. When we brief the case under the Tenth Circuit rules, only the exhibits that are referred to in the briefs go up. So it does appear that whoever is writing that opinion is taking a close look at the record.

Teacher Due Process "We have three tenured teacher cases pending. The Leo Thompson case, which is being handled by Mr. Alexander, started on August 18. It's my understanding that due to a conflict or a previous commitment on the part of the hearing judge, that case cannot be continued or reheard until mid-October. In the Trout-Harwood case, I called the State Department of Education this afternoon to see if they had received any word on a decision, and they had not. That's the case that was tried on July 24. In the Nancy Taylor case last week, we did receive the decision from the hearing judge. It's about a thirteen or fourteen page decision with findings of fact and conclusions of law, and he did uphold your decision last April to nonrenew Mrs. Taylor's employment contract on the grounds of willful neglect of duty and incompetency."

REPORT

Special Staff Reports

(Copies of the reports will be kept on file in the Office of the Clerk for five years as authorized by Section 73, School Laws of Oklahoma, 1988, 70-5-122. (a)

Secure High School Campus Program Ms. Gloria Griffin, Director of High Schools and Adult Education, presented the secure high school campus task force report. The proposed program consisted of three parts: 1) adoption of a secure campus policy to require high school students to remain on campus during the school day; 2) approval of a resolution calling for a capital improvement bond issue to provide funds for security and functional improvements to fully implement the secure high school campus program; and 3) adoption of a resolution calling on the Oklahoma City Council to adopt a municipal ordinance relating to trespassing on school property. (The Board action on these items appears under General Business.)

The following persons spoke in support of the secure high school campus proposal: Mrs. Linda Henry, Douglass High School parent; Reverend W. B. Parker, Pastor of St. James Baptist Church in Spencer, Oklahoma; Ms. Joyce Henderson, Principal of Northeast High School; and District Attorney Bob Macy. The following staff members assisted Ms. Griffin in the presentation: Dr. Jack Isch, Director of Service Center Operations, provided information on the proposed bond issue projects. Ms. Pam Deering, Director, Budget and Financial Management Division, discussed the financial aspects of the bond issue. Mr. Dick Vrooman, Principal, Northwest Classen High School, discussed the resolution to the City of Oklahoma City. Homework Task Force Report

for

Mrs. Parks suggested the following addition to Regulation 1-35-Rl: "Homework assignments, including written assignments, shall be monitored, evaluated, and returned to the students in order to determine the subject grade."

Mr. Kellert requested clarification on the phrase, "appropriate student instructional level"; methods used in individual classrooms to identify the unique instructional levels of children so that they are challenged, rather than bored with easy assignments or frustrated with assignments that are too difficult. Mr. Chandler pointed out that in the Grading Practices Task Force Report, teachers may pick 4 of 5 performance areas on which to base 10% of a student’s grade, potentially making homework optional at the discretion of the teacher. The Grading Practices Task Force was directed to use the 10% guideline as stated in the Homework Task Force Report recommendations.

REPORT

Special Staff Reports (Continued) (b)

Corporal Punishment Task Force Dr. John Simpson, Director, Elementary Schools, Division A, introduced Mr. Eugene King, Task Force Chair and Principal, Shidler Elementary School, to present an overview the task force report. The task force explored ways to correct students who require disciplinary measures and made recommendations for alternatives to corporal punishment compatible with the District's approved Assertive Discipline Plan.

The task force recommends: The total elimination of corporal punishment by the 1990-91 school year and the use of the 1989-90 school year as a "transition year" for the district to provide more training (for staff and parents) in the use of alternatives to corporal punishment.

Activities required to effectively recommendation are as follows:

Require all personnel who have direct contact with and/or responsibilities for students to complete training in Assertive Discipline by June 1991. All personnel in these categories employed after June 1991 will complete Assertive Discipline training within one year of their employment. Exceptions will include persons not in direct contact with students (e.g.. Central Office clerical staff. Maintenance and other Service Center staff. Financial Management administrators and staff and other Central Office administrators and staff, etc.).

2)

Require school management and expanded training in assertive discipline to become a regular part of building administrators’ inservice training during the year.

3)

Require building administrators (where corporal punishment was used last year) to attend at least one inservice session to address alternatives.

4)

Resolution on Trespassing

RESOLUTION

Whereas, the Oklahoma City Public Schools are concerned about the safety and well being of all students who attend schools in this district; and Whereas, believe it is imperative that we urge that every step be taken to deny access to outsiders who do not properly enter our campuses; and Whereas, the Oklahoma City Municipal Code does not contain an ordinance which specifically addresses trespassing on school property; and Whereas, we believe that the adoption of such an ordinance with a fine sufficient to act as a deterrent would be in the best interest of our schools and our city.

Therefore, be it Resolved that the Oklahoma City School Board requests that the Oklahoma City Council prepare and adopt a city ordinance to prohibit trespassing on public school property; together with a fine of not less than $100. Adopted this

SPECIAL LEVEL III COMPLAINT JOAN KREIMEYER (Continued)

D.

BUSINESS

LEVEL III COMPLAINT - JOAN KREIMEYER

Procedural Matters (Continued) Upon direction by Mr. Day, Ms. Ray presented the factual basis and background for the motion to dismiss. She stated the approximately 20 teachers who filed the complaint lack standing in the matter or the capacity to seek relief; that the complainants have no legally protectable interest at stake, nor have they sustained any direct or indirect injury. The complaint was filed on February 15, 1989; it was not heard at Level II for lack of standing.

Background: Townes Watson was assigned as principal at Page-Woodson in the fall of 1988. On December 20 the complainants circulated a petition on school letterhead that was supportive of Mr. Watson as principal, but requested he be removed due to a physical condition he had that caused him trouble climbing stairs. On January 25, 1989, the middle school director at that time (Gloria Griffin) issued a letter of reprimand to Mr. Watson for initiating and circulating a petition signed by the teachers, citing it was inappropriate for him to have teachers circulating a petition on his behalf because he already had a complaint pending addressing the same issue (placement at the two-story building) . In May of 1989 Mr. Watson's relief sought was granted; the letters of reprimand were expunged from his file and he was removed from the building. The union’s position was that the complaint should be heard because failure to do so would intimidate the teachers and keep them from having their first amendment rights; also, that the teachers' letter, which was complimentary to the building administrator, should not be used against that building administrator in the form of a reprimand. Mr. Day stated that the teachers had no basis for a complaint as they were not harmed (no reprimands affecting teachers), and pointed out that Townes Watson's complaint was resolved in his favor. He said a motion was in order to either deny or grant the motion to dismiss. MOTION TO HEAR COMPLAINT FAILS

LEGAL ATTORNEY'S REPORT

REPORT

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

Vo-Tech 22 v. 1-89 (Foster Estes Facility) "I received contact late last week by Mr. Ted Poole, the new attorney for Vo-Tech 22, indicating he wanted to get together with me to discuss future discovery in the case; depositions, requests for production of documents, that sort of thing. I agreed to do that. He also filed an appearance on behalf of Vo-Tech 22, which I received today. So I can anticipate within the next 30-60 days we will have some discovery starting in the case and the case moving along.” OCFT Local 2309 v. 1-89

"In the lawsuit that the AFT filed against the Board seeking to enjoin implementation of the Board’s policy on staff development, we appeared in District Court this morning before Judge Blaisdell on Plaintiff’s Application for Temporary Injunction. We presented argument to the Court. The Plaintiff union presented evidence. At the close of the Plaintiff’s evidence, the judge denied the Application for Temporary Injunction, primarily on the basis that there was an insufficient showing of irreparable harm to the plaintiffs. "The judge did comment that she would like to see the case settled or resolved if there’s any way to do that; and if not, she encouraged the parties to get the case set at an early date to be heard on the merits. It’s my understanding the case is actually assigned to Judge Owens; Judge Blaisdell was the presiding chief judge and heard this application. When it goes to the trial on the merits, it will be heard before Judge Charles Owens."

BOARD PROCEDURAL ISSUE BISCOE LEVEL III COMPLAINT

MEMBERS'

COMMENTS/BUSINESS

Procedural Issue - Level III Complaint

The Board considered a procedural issue in the Level III complaint of Belinda Biscoe scheduled for September 25, 1989. Mr. Ronald Day, General Counsel, served as hearing officer. Mr. James R. Moore represented Dr. Biscoe; Ms. Kimberly Robinson Ray, Associate General Counsel, represented the respondent (school district administration). Dr. Carolyn Hughes. The administration filed a motion to remand the hearing to Level II. The complaint was not heard at Level II. The complainant raised several procedural issues. The complainant and respondent were each allowed ten minutes to present their positions. A short recess was declared during the discussion to allow Dr. Biscoe an opportunity to provide a copy of a regulation (G-ll-Rl) in effect prior to an August, 1989, revision.

Following discussion among the Board, the hearing officer and the parties to the complaint, Mrs. Floyd made a motion to remand the complaint to Level II. The motion died for lack of a second. R. #104 COMPLAINT TO BE HEARD AT LEVEL III

REPORTS

ATTORNEY'S REPORT

Mr. Ronald Day, as follows:

General Counsel,

reported on current legal matters

ATTORNEY'S REPORT

OESCO V. 1-89

"The co-defendant, Collins-Soter Engineering, filed a motion for summary judgement and their motion was also sustained. We received notice that the plaintiff is appealing that decision, as well, so both issues are now on appeal." Teacher Due Process

"In the tenured teacher case involving Nancy Taylor, I received notice that the teacher is appealing that to District Court. That is an appeal; it's not a new trial. No new evidence will be taken. We will have twenty days to respond to that petition for review."

Dowell V. 1-89 "In the Dowell case, you'll recall that on July 7 the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals handed down what purported to be a majority opinion reversing Judge Bohanan. I believe his opinion is exceeding fifty pages in length. At that time there was an indication that there would be a separate opinion coming down. On September 15 that separate opinion was handed down by Circuit Judge Bobby Baldock. It was a dissenting opinion in favor of the Board of Education, supporting Judge Bohanan's decision. It's an 84-page decision. I've taken the liberty of having a copy made for each of you and provided to you this evening. I sincerely suggest that you read it very carefully. I've studied it, and I feel that it really addresses each and every concern that we had in the majority opinion. "After this dissent was filed Friday afternoon, there was another occurrence at the Tenth Circuit. The majority read it and entered their own order, vacating their judgement of July 7 and withdrawing their opinion of July 7 for the purpose of responding to the dissent. So, technically, at this point in time the case is still on appeal without a majority opinion or judgement against this board.

LEGAL ATTORNEY'S REPORT (Continued)

AND

FINANCIAL

REPORTS

Dowell V. 1-89 (continued) "We have been conferring with personnel with the Court Clerk’s office at the Tenth Circuit to determine what effect this has on the timelines. Although there appears to be a little bit of confusion, the consensus is at this time that there are no timelines and there will be no timelines until the judgment is reentered. The entry of the judgment is the date from which your time to petition for rehearing starts and also your time to petition for Writ of Certiorari to U. S. Supreme Court. Although I'd like to be able to predict what's coming down the pike, I can't do it. I don't what they're going to do. "There was an indication from one of the clerks that they're not going to prolong this; they do not want to keep the Board dangling, not knowing that they're going to do with their school plans. So although I don't know exactly how much time it's going to take for this new opinion to come down, I don't think they're going to drag it out for an excessive amount of time."

Appellant:

The appellant offered no exhibits.

Summajry of Opening Statements Respondent: The administration's position was that Mr. Stevenson fraudulently received Worker's Compensation payments. Mr. Stevenson was injured on the job in April, 1989, and was classified as "temporary total disability." While off work and receiving Worker's Compensation payments from the school district he was employed by Executive Courier during the period May through August of 1989.

Appellant: The appellant was not aware that he could not take part-time employment while on total disability. The appellant's physician advised him to become more active, get some exercise, and get a part-time job. Summary of Testimony

Appellant's Witnesses:

Cathy Watson, Raymond Randle

Ms. Watson testified concerning Mr. Stevenson’s injury and claim history, and her investigation into his employment by Executive Courier. Mr. Randle testified about Mr. Stevenson's violations of the negotiated agreement as described in a Significant Event Report; a conference he held with Mr. Stevenson on August 15; and Mr. Stevenson's employment with Executive Courier while drawing worker's compensation from the District.

Summary of Closing Statements

Respondent: It was the respondent's position that it is inappropriate for any employee to be drawing total temporary disability from the District worker's compensation fund and be working up to 64 hours per pay period for another employer; that Mr. Stevenson deliberately withheld information about the part-time job because his intent was to defraud the system. The respondent said there was nothing in writing to substantiate Mr. Stevenson's claim that his doctor advised him to work part-time; however, there were two releases for him to return to regular duties (June 26 and July 26, 1989).

Appellant: The union's position was that no Board policy had been violated; that his job as a courier did not require a great deal of physical exertion. The appellant said had Mr. Stevenson been aware he was doing something wrong, he would not have taken the part-time job.

Appellant: The appellant's position was that the head custodian and Mr. Brown were good friends before the incident; that the head custodian had a hand in provoking Mr. Brown; and that Mr. Brown had no history of hitting co-workers. Summary of Testimony Respondent's Witnesses: Raymond Randle

Rick Kendrix,

Phil Odom,

Edward

Taylor,

Mr. Kendrix testified concerning his supervision of the custodial crew and the altercation between him and Mr. Brown; Dr. Odom testified concerning Jesse Brown's custodial duties; Mr. Taylor testified about the incident and his discussion with Mr. Brown; Mr. Randle testified about his investigation of the incident, his subsequent recommendation for the termination of Mr. Brown's employment, and an unrelated incident at another building.

Appellant’s Witnesses:

Dwight Ramsey, Johnny Bailey, Jimmy Thurman

Mr. Ramsey and Mr. Bailey testified concerning their observation of the incident between Mr. Brown and Mr. Kendrix and the custodial crew's working relationship with Mr. Kendrix. Mr. Thurman testified about disciplinary action taken against Mr. Kendrix for the building not being ready for the opening of school and Mr. Kendrix's relationship with the custodial crew.

Summary of Closing Statements

Respondent: The respondent's position was that on August 18 Mr. Kendrix arrived at work after being at a meeting at John Marshall High School and found his crew of four people not on task; that he didn't comment the first time, and that he gave the entire crew instructions to change their task. Mr. Brown took it personally, and struck Mr. Kendrix. The respondent pointed out that Board Policy states that employees should act in a professional manner, and urged that the Board terminate the employment of Mr. Brown.

Appellant: The appellant's representative stated that Mr. Brown did not deny striking Mr. Kendrix, and contended that Mr. Kendrix would become argumentative with very little provocation and had little formal training in giving directions. The crew was working on the assignment as directed by the principal out of fear of disciplinary action for insubordination. Mr. Kendrix confronted Mr. Brown in particular, making him feel threatened.

the

bottom

WHEREAS, increased mandates from the federal government and the state government continue to create a drain on school budgets; and WHEREAS, the Oklahoma City Public School District needs financial relief in areas such as special education costs, transportation costs, equipment and building repair or replacement, textbooks, staff salaries and asbestos abatement; and WHEREAS, such societal problems as drug abuse, at-risk students, dropouts, and lack of competitiveness with foreign countries continue to plague schools and cry for solutions which cost money;

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Oklahoma City Public School District urges the Oklahoma Legislature to address these problems with a significant increase of revenue during the special legislative session of 1989;

TkND BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Oklahoma City Public School District believes that these financial problems should be addressed by both short-term and long-term solutions, and that the short-term solution should be found in the $50 million from the Rainy Day Fund and that the long-term solution should be a revenue package of approximately $300 million per year;

AND BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Oklahoma City Public School Board of Education intends to support the Legislature in general, and its individual legislators in particular in addressing these needs, understanding that it may be necessary to vote for revenue measures in the form of a tax increase in order to meet the needs so described above; AND BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Oklahoma City Public School Board of Education is thanking its legislators in advance for a "yes" vote for both short-term and long-term solutions to our serious revenue problem.

Adopted this 9th day of October, 1989.

Ms. Ann Hsieh presented a routine Treasurer's report. (A copy of the written summary report will be maintained on file for five years in the Office of the Clerk, in compliance with state statutes.) ATTORNEY'S REPORT

ATTORNEY'S REPORT

Mr. Ronald Day, as follows:

General Counsel,

reported on current legal matters

Principals' Claim for Retirement Bonus

"Earlier this year a group of principals presented a claim to the Board seeking retirement benefits they claimed were denied to them as a result of their retirement in December 1987. Last Friday, that same group of fifteen retired principals filed suit in the District Court of Oklahoma County against the Board and the School District and Superintendent for reimbursement of those resignation bonuses. They allege those bonuses total over $200,000. The attorney for the group is the same attorney that appeared before the Board previously, Mr. Ray Bays. "The District has not yet been served with suit papers, so I have not reviewed the petition. But we are docketing the case for defense, and as soon as we get suit papers I’ll report further. We'll have twenty days after being served to file an answer. And we will see that an appropriate pleading is filed on or before that date."

Dowell V. 1-89

"In the Dowell case, we received a majority opinion recently. There's been a little bit of confusion about how that came down or why it came down. Briefly, let me state that when the original decision came down last July, it was just authored by two members of the panel and there was an indication at that time that another opinion would be forthcoming. It was on September 15 that we received the second opinion. It was a dissenting opinion; an 84-page dissent by Justice Baldock. And on the same date that dissent was issued, the majority withdrew their previous opinion and vacated their judgement for the purpose of responding to the dissent. "The recent opinion that came down from the majority was that opinion responding to the dissent. The substance of the opinion is really the same. There are a few minor changes that have been made and a few footnotes responding to the dissent. But that second opinion came down as a result of nothing, or no action, that this Board of Education took seeking reconsideration. Since the judgment has been reentered as of October 6, and we have the new opinion now with the majority and dissent, it's appropriate for the Board to reconsider the action, or consider what action they wish to take in response to that opinion. And, therefore, I recommend an executive session for confidential communications with Board counsel concerning the Dowell case at this time."

W-7 HEARINGS Mrs. Hill requested that the Superintendent respond to patrons who had previously addressed the Board concerning carpet remnants used in some classrooms. Dr. Steller reported that a survey had been taken, and principals informed, that improperly installed pieces of carpeting with frayed edges, etc., would be removed. It was also agreed that carpet squares would eventually be placed in all kindergarten rooms that do not currently have any carpet. The old carpet in the kindergarten room at Stand Watie was removed. The wood underneath was not suitable for classroom use, so a decision was made to carpet the entire room. A response to the carpet survey was not received from Willow Brook. Staff will follow-up. If funds are available, transition classrooms will be considered for carpeting next year.

PREDISCIPLINARY HEARING - EVERETT BOWSER (Continued)

Summary of Opening Statements

Respondent: B.A.T. (Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training) training has been instituted by the Board for several years. In February of 1989 the Board voted to make the training mandatory for employees to continue to work in certain crafts. This employee refuses to participate in the B.A.T. training. Pursuant to Board's position adopted in February of 1989, administration recommends the employee be removed from his current position and placed in the Custodial Department.

PREDISCIPLINAR'i HEARING EVERETT BOWSER (Continued)

Appellant: The appellant feels he has told his side of the story many times over the years, but has not been heard. The appellant alleged the information he has received has contained truths, half-truths, and less-than truths. Mr. Bowser wishes to point out inequities and. inconsistencies under which he has worked.

Testimony The following persons testified during the hearing:

Mr. Allison Patrick, Coordinator of Support Personnel Training, testified concerning the B.A.T. Program training requirements and standards and Mr. Bowser's withdrawal from the program. Mr. Gary Cope, President of the Apprenticeship Advisory Committee, testified about his involvement in the B.A.T. program and the function and actions of the committee. Mr. Sam Bogle, Coordinator, Support Personnel, testified concerning salary schedules, the effect B.A.T. training has on employment status and salary, and the Advisory Committee's recommendation that Mr. Bowser be transferred.

Appellant's Witness: Mr. Bowser's testimony included his employment history with the District, his knowledge of training requirements in his craft, and his reasons for not wanting to advance his training. He testified that he planned to retire in 1992, and that he believed he should be paid for any training he undertakes outside of his regular working hours.

Summary of Closing Statements

Respondent: Initially the B.A.T. program was voluntary, but is now mandatory for those who want to work in certain craft areas, including plumbing, steamfitters, heat and air conditioning, and electricians. The training program was designed and implemented to ensure that only trained, skilled craftsmen worked in these areas to avert another tragedy such as the boiler explosion at Star School in 1982. Mr. Bowser has been given the opportunity to participate in the program since 1983, but declined for various reasons. Appellant: Mr. Bowser is asking to remain a plumber's helper for two and one-half years until his retirement. The training program offers benefits that Mr. Bowser will not realize before that time. Mr. Bowser maintains that his objections are based on uncertainties and differences in versions of the training program.

LEGAL ATTORNEY'S REPORT

REPORT

Mr. Ronald Day, as follows:

General Counsel,

reported on current legal matters

AFT V. 1-89 "Last Friday parties presented oral arguments before Judge Charles Owens in District Court, presenting the Board's motion to dismiss the AFT's case over the staff development policy. Judge Owens had not read the briefs of the parties in that case and he took the case under advisement to make a ruling until after he'd read the briefs. We anticipate a ruling in the not too distant future."


MINUTES OF REGULAR MEETING OF NOVEMBER 6, 1989 H-5

LEGAL

REPORT

Dowell V. 1-89 "We filed a motion with the Tenth Circuit to stay the mandate to give the Board time to file its petition for Writ of Certiorari in the United States Supreme Court. And the purpose of that motion was just to put a halt to the proceedings until the U. S. Supreme Court had the opportunity to review the case. Today we received word from the Tenth Circuit that our motion to stay had been granted until January 4. That’s the deadline for filing the petition for Writ of Certiorari. The effect of that is to put the case on hold and it cannot now go back to District Court before Judge Bohanan; there can be no further activity in the case pending our application for Writ of Certiorari via Supreme Court. And if the Supreme Court agrees to hear the case, that stay will remain in effect until the high court finally disposes of the case."

MINUTES OF THE SPECIAL MEETING OF NOVEMBER 27, 1989

M-2 DISCUSSION OF THE MOTION REMOVED FROM THE TABLE. STATE HEALTH PLAN DISCUSSED

Mrs. Pam Deering, Director of Budget and Finance, introduced Mrs. Lee Mosier, Assistant Deputy Director of the education part of the program for the State Insurance Board. Mrs. Mosier explained the history of the state plan stating that it had been in place for 22 years and covered 40,000 state employees and 39,000 retired employees. She said that over 220 districts had enrolled since October, 1988. Also, she mentioned that Putnam City, Mid-Del, and Western Heights, among others were in the plan. Following her explanation of the history and benefits of the plan, Mrs. Mosier responded to questions from members of the Board about the cost; who is exempt from having to join; the stability of the plan, and how the pre-existing conditions apply (They are not applicable to new employees, nor are they applicable to new groups when they join.) To another question, Mrs. Mosier responded that the turn around time for paying claims was now at about 10 days for all members. She stated that at one time payments for retiree claims were delayed because of the initial volume. Mrs. Mosier also commented that, by 1991, all school districts will have to have a health insurance plan for their employees comparable to the state plan. Mrs. Mosier also commented on the interim task force report and the Peat-Marwick audits. Ms. Susan Hall, teacher, Mark Twain Elementary School, commented that she favored the state health insurance plan so that she can go to her own choice of doctors.

Ms. Ann Turner, President of Oklahoma City Federation of Teachers, talked about the insurance committee's function. She also suggested adoption of the state plan. Ms. Cindy Boyd, teacher, Eisenhower Middle School, stated that she supported the state health plan for the employees of the district, even though she probably wouldn't join since she is carried on her husband's plan. Ms. June Calvin, teacher, Webster Middle School, described the health problems of her family and stated support for the state health plan.

Mrs. Deering was then asked the current status of the district's attempt to find alternate plans. She stated that the district was attempting to find an indemnity plan and should have some proposals to consider by next Monday night (December 4, 1989). She stated that she had attended the task force committee meeting referred to earlier and that the Wyatt Company reported that 25 to 30 million dollars would have to be put in a reserve for the state plan. Also that a 28% to 29% savings could be realized if the plan were revised according to their recommendations. She also stated that the task force will meet again before final recommendations are made. Concerning the district's budget for health insurance, she stated that 1.3 million dollars was currently in the account for this expenditure. This figure was based on what has been spent previously. She pointed out that the district did not budget for all employees to be insured this fiscal year. Discussion continued about the anticipated additional cost if the district adopted the state plan. "PERFECTED" MOTION RE: STATE PLAN

FOLLOWING THE DISCUSSION, MR. HISE PERFECTED HIS MOTION BY STATING, "IT IS MY MOTION THAT THE BOARD OF EDUCATION ACCEPT THE STATE HEALTH PLAN BEGINNING JANUARY 1, 1990.

MOTION: SECOND:

Leo Hise Thelma R. Parks


MINUTES OF SPECIAL MEETING OF NOVEMBER 27, 1989

M-3

MR. CHANDLER MOVED TO AMEND THE MOTION to make it contingent on the ratification of a memorandum of understanding by representatives of all affected employee groups, recognizing that the district may already have employees under contract that would adversely have their take home pay affected; that any employee group not presently receiving any compensation in the form of health insurance be put on at 1/3 the cost (of the premium for an individual employee)being paid by the district.

The amendment died for lack of a second. AS DISCUSSION CONTINUED Mr. Fogarty stated that although he was prepared to vote against the motion, he would like the record to reflect that he was fully prepared to support a mandatory health insurance policy. However, he felt it should be done in such a way that it's not just mandated, but provided for the employees.

L

He stated he was open to the notion that the state may be the source of good quality health insurance. He closed by saying the district entered the "death spiral" many years ago when it opted to bid multiple carriers for the coverage. This led to the young, healthy employee buying the least expensive coverage and leaving the 25% of those with health problems without coverage because of the insurance company's refusal to cover them.

Mr. Ronald Day, General Counsel, served as hearing officer Irma Kidwell, teacher, Bodine Elementary School, grievant Ms. Ann Turner, President of OCFT, representative for the grievant Dr. Henry Walding, principal, Bodine Elementary School, respondent Mrs. Kimberly Robinson Ray, Associate General Counsel, representative for the respondent Mr. Jack Nichols, field representative for OCFT, assisted the grievant

Mr. Day presented a motion to dismiss he received on October 20, 1989 to the members of the Board. The motion had been filed on behalf of the respondent and alleged that the Level II Grievance had been previously resolved by the parties and withdrawn by the grievant's representative, Ann Turner. Therefore, according to the motion, the grievance was moot. Also, Mrs. Ray mentioned that there was a law suit pending in this matter which was filed by the grievant against the respondent. In response, Ms. Turner stated that her agreement for withdrawal was based on the principal performing certain actions which had not been done. Her agreement to withdraw was therefore not applicable since the duty schedule was not implemented as agreed.

AFTER HEARING THE ARGUMENTS, Mr. Day Stated that Mrs. Ray's argument about mootness had validity. He pointed out to the Board that this specific Level III Grievance had, in fact, been withdrawn at one time; further, the appropriate course of conduct should have been to file another grievance if the agreement had not been fulfilled. Mr. Day also felt this issue was moot because the relief sought was to structure a duty schedule for the previous school year. Mr. Day said it was impossible for the Board to do that since that year is over. Mr. Day recommended that the motion to dismiss be sustained for these reasons.

PRIOR TO THE VOTE, Mr. Chandler offered a substitute motion to provide a continuance of the grievance with respect to any litigation being resolved first. He later withdrew his motion. DURING DISCUSSION of the substitute motion, Mr. Chandler stated that he was concerned that there would be an endless round of appeals whereby the relief sought was granted, not carried out, therefore causing a new grievance to be filed. Further, he felt the legal remedies should be resolved before the Board acted on the grievance. He withdrew his motion based on statements from the negotiated agreement pointed out by Ms. Turner (page 5 and 6, also page 9 Article L) stating that the grievance procedure did not provide for a continuance. Mrs. Parks asked if any policies addressed the issue of relief being granted but not carried out. Mr. Day stated that both the policies and the negotiated agreement were silent on that issue.

Mr. Kellert commented that he shared Mr. Chandler’s concern that the tight timelines made such a serious issue a "moot point". He suggested that the Board needed to address how to handle the problem of a person not adhering to a settlement. Mrs. Floyd and Mrs. Hill both suggested that the Board did not really know if the relief was carried out or not. Rather, that fact could only be decided on the merits of the case, which had not been heard. 2.

Mr. Hise asked if the complaint falls under the existing regulations since it was filed prior to the effective date of the changes. In responding, Mr. Day related the regulation change to the judicial system, saying that if changes affect procedural rights only, they're effective at the date they are implemented. If vested rights are at stake, then the old policy should apply and the procedure outlined in that policy should be carried through. He stated that only a procedural role is affected in this change of regulations and that the Board could still take oral testimony and oral argument if it decides to do so. Mr. Day stated that the existing regulation would apply in his view. In regard to a question by Mrs. Parks, there was also discussion about the fact that the regulation applied to all employees, including administrators; that the regulation was effective 10-2789 and the Level III complaint was filed on 11-9-89, after the new regulation went into effect.

REMARKS

REMARKS Dr. Arthur Steller, Superintendent, gave his oral mid-term report, and stated that next year he believed it would be possible to give written quarterly reports to the Board. Some of the items mentioned by Dr. Steller were: GENERAL

1.

This year the Boards' goals are worded better than ever before. They are crisp and clear. Consequently, staff will be better able to develop their own goals and objectives. The Research Department is currently working on a foremat that will allow for better monitoring of staff goals so that more time will be spent on planning rather than rewriting goals and objectives.

STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT 1.

More students took the fall test this year than in the past.

2.

Essential skills results point out where we need to concentrate our efforts. Continued refinement means that by the end of the year we should have an excellent process. Some new recommendations for improvement, including purchase of scanners for site based scoring of tests, will be forthcoming.

3.

Preliminary SAT results show that we had a tremendous improvement over last year in both quality of the scores and numbers taking the test. In grades 5 through 8, 79% of the Super Scholars took the test. Green Pastures and Eisenhower both had 100% participation. Early participation should mean better scores as tests are retaken when the students get older.

4.

The PACT test for 10th graders was taken by 227 students, representing 76% of the Super Scholar students. Both the Star Spencer and John Marshall had 100% of their Super Scholars participate.

5.

There should be a continual rise in the PSAT test scores and we should hold our own on the Iowa test. However, students may have problems with the writing assessment tests to be given in February. The district needs some more work in this area.

6.

Students are continuing to excell in academic competitions.

All in all. Dr. Steller stated he feels good about the progress in Student Achievement, which is the primary mission of the District. BEHAVIOR, DISCIPLINE AND RELATED ITEMS

1.

Our hope of expanding the alternative school program was postponed because of lack of money. The proposals are still alive and some grant funds will be sought this year for funding.

2.

The SAGE Program and METRO program should be expanded.

3,.

The District should also look at expanding a middle school alternative in order to meet the needs of older students in those grades.

4.

Additional Assistant principals and interns have been added this year at both the middle and high school level.

5.

The new Truancy Center has been launched which should help get more students off the streets and in the schools. This program is in cooperation with the District Attorney's office.

6.

The District is participating in the interagency SNOWCAP study with Juvenile Justice Center, District Attorney's Office, police department and others. A grant is being sought for funding. A change in legislation is being pushed which will allow various agencies to share information.


MINUTES OF REGULAR MEETING OF DECEMBER 4, 1989

7.

A major disappointment this year was the loss of the bond issue (relating to Closed Campuses). That item is still of concern to the high school principals. High school campuses still need to be closed but a bond issue is necessary for us to do this.

8.

Corporal punishment has not been practiced in the district since approximately mid-September, 1989.

9.

A task force is currently studying alternatives to suspensions and by the end of the year we may have a plan to completely eliminate suspensions. The existing Saturday program is working fairly well at this point.

M-7

10. Legislation has been approved to set up the Drug Free School Zones. Signs have been secured and these will put people on notice that we are serious about eliminating drugs around the schools. COMMUNITY INTEREST 1.

The district's PTA involvement is continuing to grow. The state convention was held here. We have gained new PTA units this year. There is a concern because the coordinator position that works with PTA's has been vacant and needs to be filled.

2.

Open house statistics are positive: 1988-89

1989-90

33,200 participating

35,900 participating

More parents are participating in the conferences and coming to parent-teacher conferences, with over 20,000 this year even with a stricter counting process.

4.

The Adopt-A-School program is still operating.

5,

United Way participation is up over $4,000.00 in contributions from our employees from last year. This speaks well for the employees of the district and their interest in community needs.

6.

Approximately 50 persons participated in a recent central office blood drive.

Junior Achievement Bowl-a-rama participation is up again this year.

Working with the Chambers of Commerce has had positive results. A group meeting with area superintendents discussing school finance helped establish the endorsement of the Task Force 2000 report by the Chambers. The Foundation is setting higher goals this year and we expect even more support from that group.

MISCELLANEOUS CATEGORY

1. Team Management is providing more involvement, participation, and better participation than before.

more

2.

Initial phase of the IDEA training has now been completed by all schools. By this spring all schools will have completed all phases^ of the training.

3.

Evaluation of employees is getting better as is staff development for employees.

4. The District has taken steps to help low risk or under achieving students by providing before school, after school, and Saturday school programs. The effects are still unknown as these programs are just now starting, but we have high expectations. 5.

The District is moving forward with health insurance erollment. All employees should be enrolled by December 11, 1989.

6.

The Breakfast program is continuing to expand as more students are participating. A real effort is being made to identify students eligible for free or reduced lunch. This year we have identified 2,655 more eligible students. By identifying these students three more schools have been identified as Chapter 1 schools and school wide projects have increased from 6 to 17 schools that are eligible.

7.

Finances are about as expected for this time of year.

8.

Professionalism is continuing to grow with teachers, principals, and other staff working hard and doing a good job. One teacher, Betty Wright advanced further than any other teacher from the district in a long time in terms of the state teacher of the year competition. In general it's been a good year with positive results. However, the legislature must come through with some funding to help bring long term solutions to some of the major education problems in the state.

Mrs. Parks asked when the legislative liaison would be reporting to the Board. Dr. Steller responded that some of the legislative action now really didn't mean much, but that he (Don Hoover) could give an update at the next regular meeting. Mrs. Parks also commented she liked the Drug Free School Zone signs and asked about the cost. Dr. Steller said this information would be provided.

BOARD MEMBERS COMMENTS

MEMBER

COMMENTS

Mr. Hise commented on the positive calls he had received on the recently adopted health insurance program for the employees. Concerning homework, he requested a balance in the assignment of homework. Mrs. Hill stated that the homework policy was one of the topics for discussion scheduled at a future Board meeting. Mrs. Parks commented on the positive representation by students from Northwest Classen, Northeast, John Marshall, Star Spencer and Douglass in a a recent Alpha Kappa Alpha talent contest. She also commented on the outstanding performance of the Douglass band in the recent Christmas parade where she served as a judge. Mrs. Parks stated that she recently participated in a forum with the Superintendent on determining the future of education in the 90's.

SUMMARY OF OPENING STATEMENTS RESPONDENT

Mrs. Kimberly Ray made the opening statement for the Respondent. Administration requested termination of Mr. Sampson’s employment based on violations of Article 6, Section 4B-3 of the negotiated agreement, for willful or persistent violation of school laws. Board Policy or Administrative regulations; also for violation of Board Policy G-5, Staff Conduct. Specifically, employees are to conduct themselves in a professional manner and relationship with other employees. While employed as a custodian at Hoover, Mr. Sampson left on a lunch break for approximately two hours. When he returned, his supervisor, Frank Parker, questioned him as to his whereabouts. Mr. Sampson became loud and profane and then pushed Mr. Parker violently two or three times in an attempt to provoke a fight with him. Mr. Parker did not return the violence either verbally or physically, but returned to his office and placed the proper call to his superior to make a report. APPELLANT Mr. Don Moore made the opening statement for the appellant. He stated that Mr. Sampson was a victim of circumstances. Extenuating circumstances caused Mr. Sampson to be gone for two hours. When he came back from lunch he was harassed by the assistant head custodian, who shouted and screamed at him and tried to provoke Mr. Sampson.

HEARING FOR EARNEST SAMPSON (Continued)

PRETERMINATION HEARING FOR EARNEST SAMPSON CLOSING STATEMENTS (Summarized)

Closing Statement for the Respondent made by Ms. Kimberly Ray Mr. Parker testified that Mr. Sampson was gone from his work site for more than two hours; that Mr. Parker approached Mr. Sampson and that as soon as he did, there was angry conversation and profanity. Mr. Parker was assaulted and hit three times in the chest with enough force to push him backwards. There has been no evidence of any plot or covert activity to remove Mr. Sampson from his position. Mr. Sampson's testimony has been self-contradictory and does not agree with any previous testimony. He was two hours late on a 15-minute break and he only tried to contact his supervisor one time. Upon returning to the work site, he made no attempt to speak with his supervisor or to offer any explanation. Mr. Sampson's personnel history discloses a track record of several instances. Despite Administration's progressive discipline, counseling, a two-week suspension and a transfer to a new site, another incident has taken place. Mr. Sampson has demonstrated an inability to work for the school district. It is recommended that this employee be terminated.

Closing Statement for the Appellant made by Don Moore Calling a building isn't easy in the evenings. My experience shows that sometimes the phone rings forever. Also, Mr. Sampson has never denied that he did not come back late. Rather, he had gone to his brother' s house and was irate and upset because of his nephew's trauma. Fear and safety were mentioned by opposing counsel. The two individuals that we are talking about are very large, and I don't think Mr. Sampson could push them around. The reports by the witnesses were too similar to be believed. We say it was nothing but collusion. Ms. Shirley was the only one who mentioned profanity. She has tried to get Mr. Sampson fired before. A minor incident was blown out of proportion because people want to get rid of Mr. Sampson.
