(Amended Ed. Codes 35294.1 & 35294.6) Beginning July 1, 2000, each individual school must report on the status of its school safety plan, including a description of its key elements in the school accountability report card, and must continue to do so every July thereafter (Amended Ed. Code 35294.6) The following guideline may be utilized to support the annual review and evaluation of the individual school safety plan. This guide will also provide a time line and related administrative tasks to provide a process to ensure compliance with the requirements of Senate Bill 187, Comprehensive School Safety Plan. The guideline/checklist has been organized into two parts: 1. An assessment by the School Safety Planning Committee of the School Site Council, the School Site Council or equivalent of the school climate in relation to the current status of school crime committed on campus and at school related functions. Based on this assessment, safety goals will be set for the upcoming school year. 2. The annual review and evaluation of the school comprehensive safety plan which is certified by the members of the School Safety Planning Committee, the School Site Council President, and the school Principal before being presented to the Board of Trustees for final review and adoption. This review includes the following mandated components of Senate Bill 187: • Child Abuse reporting procedures • Policies pursuant to Education Code 48915(c) and other school-designated serious acts which would lead to suspension, expulsion, or mandatory expulsion recommendations • Procedures to notify teachers and counselors of dangerous students • Sexual Harassment Policy • Safe ingress and egress to and from school • Rules and procedures on school discipline in order to create a safe and orderly environment conducive to learning • Dress Code CSSP: JAN. 2016 DRAFT MetroED PAGE 4 OF 141 • Routine and emergency disaster procedures including natural disasters, human created disasters or power outages.

Panel Reviewing the Impact of Hurricane Katrina on Communications Networks (EB Docket 06-119) Dear Ms. Dortch: On September 1, 2015, the undersigned President of the National Association of Black Owned Broadcasters, Inc. ("NABOB") along with Francisco Montero of Fletcher, Heald & Hildreth, PLC, and David Honig, President Emeritus and Senior Advisor, Multicultural Media, Telecommunications and Internet Council ("MMTC") met with Commissioner Ajit Pai and Alison Nemeth, Legal Advisor, to discuss the most important and effective proposal set forth in the AM Revitalization Notice: opening an application filing window for FM translators that would be limited to AM broadcast licensees. As the Commission recognized in the Notice, the best way to help the largest number of AM stations to quickly and efficiently improve their service is to open such an AM-only window. Any other approach will make it extremely difficult, if not impossible, for AM stations, to obtain the translators they urgently need to remain competitive and provide our communities with the service they deserve.

  • Will Asian Women Call a Telephone Health Information Service?
    S. Davis / Californian Journal of Health Promotion 2003, Volume 1, Issue 1, 103-108 Will Asian Women Call a Telephone Health Information Service? Sharon Watkins Davis Northern California Cancer Center Abstract AAPI women have the lowest breast cancer screening rates of all U.S. women. Barriers to screening include access, culture, and language. Previous focus group studies have shown little use of telephone hotlines among Asians. However, this report indicates that media promotions in Cantonese, Mandarin, Vietnamese, and Korean can result in a major increase in calls to a California statewide telephone service. Calls from women speaking Asian languages to the California Breast Cancer Early Detection Program Consumer 800 Number increased from an average of 24 per month to 576 in June 2001 in response to paid newspaper and radio advertisements in Los Angeles, San Diego, and the San Francisco Bay Area. © 2003 Californian Journal of Health Promotion. All rights reserved. Keywords: Asian women, cancer, primary prevention, early detection Background and Significance cultural belief that if nothing is wrong, no tests Breast cancer incidence and mortality rates are should be done. Cost and insurance barriers lower for Asian American and Pacific Islander were also shown to be major concerns (Lee, (AAPI) women than for Whites or Blacks in the 1998). United States (American Cancer Society, 2001). However, invasive breast cancer rates increased AAPI women seek health information from by about 15 percent among AAPI women in health professionals, including traditional California from 1998 – 1997, compared with medicine practitioners such as herbalists, family fairly stable rates for other ethnic groups members, and the media.
