TO: Board of Education Regular Meeting

SUBJECT: Report on District Technology March 23,2015

BACKGROUND

The District's network systems and equipment were implemented over 10 years ago to provide staff and students network acces·s to educational and business systems and the Internet. Network equipment, systems and computer devices have aged out and are past the time of being productive. Staff and students have encountered degraded performance when accessing District and web-based applications. Of the 10,000 computer devices connected to the District's network, over 3,500 have aged out. Most of these computers are unable to receive security updates and pose a security threat to the District's network.

ISSUE

The 2014-2015 Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) budget included over $4.7 million to upgrade the District's network infrastructure and replace aging computers. An additional $1 million of California Ed Tech K-12 Voucher Program Funds was also allocated for technology upgrades.

REPORT

In July 2014, the Information and Technology Services (ITS) staff developed a plan to upgrade the District's network infrastructure and replace aging computer devices by maximizing all available funds which included 2014-2015 LCAP funding, California Ed Tech K-12 Voucher Program funds, and future eRate funds. The ITS plan included the recent FCC changes that resulted in USAC (Universal Service Administrative Company) creating the new eRate 2.0. The ITS plan included cost-effective state of the art technology systems designed to provide a useful life of five to ten years and support the District's educational initiatives. DataPath, Inc. was contracted in January 2014 to conduct a Technology Assessment for the District. Datapath's final report, issued in March 2014, included their facility assessment findings and recommendations for technology changes. Datapath's inventory lists for the physical hardware were used to determine replacement quantities for network switches and wireless access points.

Since July 1, 2014, Information and Technology Services (ITS) staff have purchased multiple systems to upgrade the District's network infrastructure. The following projects have been completed:

• Cisco Call Manager to support the District's VoIP phone system's integration to Office 365 and VoIP phone system implementations at school sites • Cisco 5585 Firewalls • Cisco 8500 and 8510 series wireless controllers • iBoss web filter - Phase I

B.4 Page 2 Report on District Technology

The following projects are currently in process:

• Cisco 9508 core switch • HP SAN (Storage Area Network) • HP Generation 9 blade server • Azure StorSimple data backup system • Cisco 9372 edge switches for 14 schools to support 10 GB uplinks to the District's Datacenter • 10 GB fiber transceivers for all school sites and District locations to support 10 GB uplinks to the District's Datacenter • 800 Cisco 3702i wireless access points at 14 schools and District Office locations • iBoss web filter - Phase II • Upgrade the District's aged-out email system, Exchange 2003, to Office 365

The District has purchased over 3,000 student and 300 staff computer devices since July 1, 2014. New computer purchases have been standardized with the Microsoft Windows operating system to provide a seamless integration with Office 365 and a cost-effective solution for technical support and professional development. Staff is developing a plan to remove the 3,500 aged-out computer devices and determine the number of replacements for staff and student computer devices that will be required to support the District's current LCAP.

District site licenses were purchased for Schoology, a Learning Management System (LMS) and Adobe Creative Cloud. School site licenses for Career Cruising were purchased for all elementary schools as part of the Computer Literacy program. The District also continues to maintain the District site licenses for Microsoft products used on both end-user computers and network servers.

Davis High became the District's first digital school in August 2014. ITS staff has continued to support the 1,600 Chromebooks used by both teachers and students. This digital program uses a combination of Schoology, Office 365, and Google Apps to provide access to textbook electronic files, online student assignments, web based applications and an integration with PowerSchool.

Staff implemented electronic grade reports for 7-12 students using SchoolMessenger's Secure Document Delivery product in October 2014. PDF versions of the student progress reports and report cards were emailed to parents that have an email address on file at their child's school. So far this year, the District has delivered over 50,000 electronic grade reports.

The District's new website went in to production on November 1, 2014. Information Systems (IS) staff redesigned, restructured, updated and streamlined the District website to improve the flow of information. IS engineered the website logic to adapt to any device (i.e. phone, tablet, desktop computer, etc.) allowing for a more accessible web presence and a smoother user experience. Since its "go live" date, over 50,000 total unique users have

B.4(1) Page 3 Report on District Technology viewed 259,566 web pages with an average of 2.5 minutes per user session. Daily statistics show that 4,800 unique users have accessed 13,800 web pages on a daily basis.

Project One, a Pilot Study that integrates Houghton Mifflin Harcourt (HMH) digital content and 1:1 student computer devices, started in January 2015. The Pilot Study will occur during the second semester of this school year and includes one ELA class at Gregori and one ELA class at La Loma. Teachers and students are utilizing the digital HMH textbook, Schoology, Office 365 and Google Apps for reading and writing lessons, and for creating multimedia projects.

Staff implemented Office 365, which included OneDrive, web applications and the home use program for all District staff and students, in January 2015.

Single-sign was implemented for PowerSchool, the District's student information system in January 2015. This functionality allows staff and students to sign in to PowerSchool using their District network account. Staff and students no longer need to remember separate accounts and passwords. This change reduced the number of staff calls to the PowerSchool Help Desk since IS no longer has to reset hundreds of passwords over the course of the school year.

QCC, the District's Business System, was upgraded from an aged-out HP3000 mainframe computer to a new SQL server database with a Linux application server in January 2015. The new configuration provides increased stability, better integration with the District's custom applications and faster performance, especially for the Employee Self Service (ESS) application. ESS allows staff to look up their own W-2's, paystubs, leave history, credentials, etc. Almost 25% of staff are already taking advantage of this resource.

In collaboration with Educational Services, ITS implemented a grade level ELA online writing task to prepare students for the spring SBAC online testing. Approximately 15,000 students in grades 7-11 utilized Schoology to complete this performance task. The students' results were then uploaded from Schoology to School City, the District student assessment system. This online application also resulted in a cost and time savings over using pencil and paper.

With the implementation of new applications and programs, the Instructional Technology staff has conducted the following trainings:

• New Hire Technology Classes - 30 training sessions with 283 participants at the Pearson Lab and another 14 personal sessions to accommodate special technological needs • Additional Training Sessions involving groups and 1-to-1 training for Schoology, Office 365, Google Apps for Education, Outlook, iPad, and Chromebook topics 300 hours of hands-on Technology training 59 I-hour 1-to-1 training sessions 311-hour group training sessions

B.4(2) Page 4 Report on District Technology

• Office 365 and 2013 - Nine Train the Trainer sessions with 169 participants; 36 sessions of trainings are planned at Pearson Education Center through the rest of the school year. • Google Apps for Education - 27 training sessions with 230 participants. • PowerTeacher -training sessions for the new K-6 Standards-based reporting with 320 participants. • Schoo logy - Two Train the Trainer sessions with over 36 teachers and administrators; also, eight onsite trainings with over 80 participants.

In addition to the computer lab trainings, IT developed the following technology training materials:

• Video Screencasting Instructions - created 120 instructional how-to videos on various technology topics hosted on the IT Y ouTube Channel or directly shared with staff with a total of over 4,230 views. • Comprehensive Web Presence - developed over 100 web pages with support resources for staff F AQ, student help and general instructional technology topics. • Microsoft Training - assisted in the development, testing and training of Microsoft Windows 8.1, Surface Pro 3, Office 365 and Office 2013.

The following are future technology projects that ITS plans to complete:

• Implement Lync, a communication and collaboration application that is part of Office 365. • Remove all aged-out servers at school sites and move data to the District's new HP blade server. • Implement a standard keyboarding application for K-6 Computer Literacy program. • Develop custom pages in PowerSchool for Transportation staff to maintain bus routes and track students that ride the bus. • Upgrade MCSonline, the District's Intranet web portal, to a supported application version that will provide easy access from any electronic device (i.e. phone, tablet, desktop computer, etc.).

The following are technology projects that ITS will complete based on additional funding:

• Implement additional wireless access points to support a future 1: 1 student-to computer device ratio that allows for the support of digital textbooks. Board Policy 5138 supports BYOD (Bring Your Own Device), however, the District's wireless network is not capable of supporting a 1:1 environment at this time, whether using District-owned or student-owned devices. • Implement new network switches at 13 schools that currently have limited network bandwidth. New network switches, that will support 1 GB node connectivity and 10 GB bandwidth, are required to support 1: 1 computer devices, additional wireless access points and VoIP phone systems. • Upgrade school site phone systems to VoIP. Phone systems at 32 schools are 20-30 years old and have exceeded the systems' useful life.

B.4(3) Page 5 Report on District Technology

• Replace SubFinder system with Aesop's Substitute Placement and Absence Management system. Aesop will integrate with the District's Business System and eliminate hand-entering of employee information by Human Resources staff. Aesop will also replace the District's existing Leave Tracking system which will allow existing programming staff to be redirected to other District projects.

SUMMARY

Although there have been many technology changes during this school year, there still remains additional technology changes that will be required to support the District's LeAP.

The District agrees to promptly investigate all instances of alleged 13 workplace bullying reported by employees to the Human Resources Office. The 14 District further agrees to take necessary action to eliminate these behaviors where an 15 investigation determines they are in fact occurring. Persons assigned by the District 16 to investigate claims of workplace bullying shall first be educated on the subject to a 17 degree that they understand the issues involved, and are likely to recognize bullying 18 when presented with evidence consistent with this pattern of behaviors.

TO: Pamela Able, Superintendent Regular Meeting

SUBJECT: Approval of Authorization to Negotiate a Guaranteed March 23,2015 Maximum Price, Lease/Leaseback Agreement with JL Bray and Son, Inc. for Reconstruction of Various District Administrative Offices

BACKGROUND

The District's Administrative offices are located at 426 Locust Street. This site originally housed the District's Benjamin Franklin Elementary School, on 2.6 acres, built in 1923. Sometime between 1951, when the new Franklin School was built on Emerald Avenue and the construction of Pearson Elementary School in 1964, the District closed Benjamin Franklin Elementary School on Locust Street because the building did not meet seismic safety standards required of buildings that housed students. The District moved its administrative offices into the brick building on Locust Street over the course of the late 1960's and early 1970's.

In the early 1970's the District had 25 schools and approximately 12,000 students. Since that time the District has built four (4) additional high schools, and five (5) additional K-8 schools between 1972 and 2010. This period of exponential growth places the District with 34 total school sites in operation and approximately 30,000 students today.

Administrative operations have grown along with the overall growth of the District. The District has gone to tremendous efforts to place administrative facilities last in the overall priorities of operations, while mandates and legal requirements for administrative services and personnel have grown. Opportunities to consolidate District administration by building, purchasing or leasing facilities in other parts of Modesto have been declined.

It is important to note that the philosophy of many District administrations over the past 40 years and today, is to remain in the South Maze Boulevard neighborhood in order to best serve the community.

Today, the 426 Locust Street location houses much of the District administrative operations, but not all. Many administrative operations have been moved off-site due to space constraints, such as Information Systems, Child Development Programs and the Vocational Education Department, all at 1017 Reno Avenue.

While the 1923 two-story structure is functioning well and maintained with its historical nature in mind, the remaining administrative facilities at 426 Locust Street are past their useful life. Many of the trailers and portable buildings placed on the site are well over 30 years old and were used when purchased. Conditions such as dry rot and termites in the portable buildings have come to critical mass.

8.9 Page 2 Approval of Authorization to Negotiate a Guaranteed Maximum Price, Lease/Leaseback Agreement with JL Bray and Son, Inc. for Reconstruction of Various District Administrative Offices

Investment in the District administrative facilities must be made. The first phase of investment and addressing these decaying building conditions is complete with the Human Resources Department being relocated to the south side of Locust Street in Building Q and a portion of Building R. The Human Resources Department generates the most pedestrian and vehicle activity at the District Office. Now easily identified, with improved access and parking, the public and staff are more efficiently served. A critical piece of making space available for the Human Resources Department relocation required moving the Special Education Department off-site to 1560 Cummins Drive. Leasing office space off-site is intended to be a temporary solution to the space constraints at the District Office.

Six of the decaying buildings on the north side of Locust Street have been sold at auction and site demolition will begin later this spring. The five remaining trailers or portables will be demolished or sold as soon as site planning allows. The next step will be to replace the approximately 15,000 square feet in administrative space that will be removed and efficiently reconstruct the square footage that will best serve the District in 2015 and beyond.

At this time, the District will site plan a new administrative building(s) to compliment the remaining 1923 building at 426 Locust Street. The goal of the new site plan and building(s) will be to provide additional staff development space as well as house all the necessary administrative staff in safe and appropriate space. Bringing the Special Education Department back from their leased off-site space will occur in this process as well.

Education Code 17406 permits a school district's governing board to lease real property for a nominal amount to an entity that is obligated to construct or improve a district-owned facility. This project delivery method is known as leaselleaseback.

ISSUE

The District desires to demolish and reconstruct buildings at the District's Administrative site at 426 Locust Street. Since project logistics are critical while performing reconstruction within an operating facility, it is staffs determination that the District would derive the best benefit by utilizing the leaselleaseback delivery method. With funding identified, it is recommended that the project be developed in accordance with Education Code 17406.

PROPOSAL

Based on the information obtained from our pool of qualified leaselleaseback developers, as per RFQ No. 15-4583, staff recommends the District negotiate a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP), Lease/Leaseback Agreement with JL Bray and Son, Inc.

B.9(1) Page 3 Approval of Authorization to Negotiate a Guaranteed Maximum Price, Lease/Leaseback Agreement with JL Bray and Son, Inc. for Reconstruction of Various District Administrative Offices

FISCAL IMPACT

The estimated cost for this project is approximately $225 per square foot of "hard-cost" construction. Additional "soft costs" of approximately $60 per square foot, to include fees for architects, surveyors, inspectors or lab work, will also be required. The District has not yet determined the final type and amount of reconstruction or new construction needed. Funding for this project will come from one-time General Fund dollars.

RECOMMENDATION

It is recommended that the Board of Education approve authorization to negotiate a Guaranteed Maximum Price, Lease/Leaseback Agreement with JL Bray and Son, Inc. for reconstruction of various District administrative offices.

SUBJECT: Approval of Authorization to Negotiate a March 23, 2015 Guaranteed Maximum Price, Lease/Leaseback Agreement with Acme Construction, Inc. for Renovation of Public Access and Training Area at Transportation

BACKGROUND

The District's Transportation facility was built in 1969 as part of the 11. 5 acre District corporation yard at the southeast corner of Carpenter Road and Woodland Avenue. The Transportation building is approximately 12,000 square feet, the majority of which contains the District's Transportation shop and mechanics. The balance of the building is office and training space for bus drivers, but no accommodations for public access.

Keeping and training bus drivers is one of the most important requirements of operating a home-to-school transportation program. The District transports approximately 8,000 students per day and is in constant need of new, qualified bus drivers. An appropriate training space is critical for meeting this need. In addition, the maintenance of over 60 school buses, 400 vehicles and other District equipment generates a tremendous amount of activity with staff and vendors.

There is currently no clear public access to the Transportation facility which, at times, has caused safety concerns. School buses come and go throughout the day. Large tractor trailers delivering supplies to the Nutrition Services Center come and go through this same part of the corporation yard. Parents, staff, vendors and the public in general have no clear place of access or a lobby area for controlled entry to the Transportation facility.

ISSUE

The District desires to renovate the public access and training space at the Transportation facility. Since project logistics are critical while performing reconstruction within an operating facility, it is staffs determination that the District would derive the best benefit by utilizing the leaselleaseback delivery method. With funding identified, it is recommended that the project be developed in accordance with Education Code 17406.

SUBJECT: Approval of First Reading of Proposed Revisions to March 23,2015 Board Policy 5131 Student Conduct Code, K-6 and Board Policy 5132 Student Conduct Code, 7-12

BACKGROUND

The Student Conduct Codes provide direction and guidance to school administrators in determining appropriate consequences for serious disciplinary offenses as well as informing students and parents of expected student behavior. An annual review of the Student Conduct Codes are performed to help keep them closely aligned with the California State Education Code and to make appropriate revisions to Board Policies.

ISSUE

Revisions to the K-6 and 7-12 Conduct Codes are needed to align with new laws passed by the state legislature. AB 420 eliminates suspensions for disruption or willful defiance for students in kindergarten to grade 3 (Education Code 48900, sub-section k). Also under AB 420, school districts will no longer have the authority to recommend expulsion based upon disruption or willful defiance for any student regardless of grade level (Education Code 48900, sub-section k). Lastly, in the K-6 Student Conduct Code, a change in language is recommended to reflect the current practice of referring students to partnered classrooms in lieu of in-school suspension.

RECOMMENDATION

It is recommended that the Board of Education approve the first reading of proposed revisions to Board Policy 5131 Student Conduct Code, K-6 and Board Policy 5132 Student Conduct Code, 7-12.

TO: Pamela Able, Superintendent Regular Meeting

SUBJECT: Approval of First Reading of Proposed Revisions March 23, 2015 to Board Policy/Administrative Regulation 6146 Comprehensive High School Graduation Requirements/California High School Exit Examination (CAHSEE) and Board Policy/Administrative Regulation 6146.1 Continuation High School/Adult Education Graduation Requirements/California High School Exit Examination (CAHSEE)

BACKGROUND

Board Policies and Administrative Regulations 6146 and 6146.1 outline the graduation requirements and California High School Exit Examination (CAHSEE) for the comprehensive high schools, continuation high school, and adult education. Current policies include graduation requirements for mathematics, including algebra, and the comprehensive high schools policy also requires completion of a computer literacy course.

ISSUE

Mathematics:

Common Core Standards provide consistency across states and provide teachers, parents, and students with a set of clear expectations to ensure that all students have the skills and knowledge necessary to succeed in college, career, and life upon graduation from high school. These standards are aligned to the expectations of colleges, workforce training programs, and employers. The Common Core concentrates on a clear set of math skills and concepts. Students will learn concepts in a more organized way both during the school year and across grades.

At the high school level, the standards are organized by conceptual category (number and quantity, algebra, functions, geometry, modeling and probability and statistics), showing the body of knowledge students should learn in each category to be college and career ready, and to be prepared to study more advanced mathematics. Modesto City Schools, as well as most school districts in our area, have organized the standards into an integrated course pathway that consists of a sequence of three courses, each of which includes number, algebra, geometry, probability and statistics. The three year sequence of Secondary Math I, II, and III replaces the traditional courses of algebra, geometry, and advanced algebra.

Secondary Math I replaces the current Algebra graduation requirement and this proposed revision, reflected in Board Policies 6146 and 6146.1, will align with the new sequence of mathematics courses.

8.12 Page 2 Approval of First Reading of Proposed Revisions to Board Policy/Administrative Regulation 6146 Comprehensive High School Graduation Requirements/California High School Exit Examination (CAHSEE) and Board Policy/Administrative Regulation 6146.1 Continuation High School/Adult Education Graduation Requirements/California High School Exit Examination (CAHSEE)

Computer Literacy:

As personal computers become commonplace, the concept of computer literacy is moving beyond basic functionality to more powerful applications. Students are applying computers and technology into their learning experiences beginning in the elementary grades. Modesto City Schools has implemented computer literacy in grades 1-6. These classes teach students skills in all basic applications with an emphasis on skills that support the Common Core State Standards and the Smarter Balanced Assessment. Students in our elementary schools are now exposed to word processing, spreadsheets, and presentation application at an earlier age. Students in our computer literacy classes also practice keyboarding skills to advance their proficiency in typing with both speed and accuracy.

Students enter high school with foundational computer and technology skills prepared to use technology as a tool and to produce products as evidence of their learning. The current computer literacy graduation requirement should be eliminated, therefore providing greater flexibility for students to take more advanced courses that meet their individual learning plans.

Revisions to BP 6146 propose that the computer literacy graduation requirement end with the Class of 2016.

RECOMMENDATION

It is recommended that the Board of Education approve the first reading of proposed revisions to Board Policy/Administrative Regulation 6146 Comprehensive High School Graduation Requirements/California High School Exit Examination (CAHSEE) and Board Policy/Administrative Regulation 6146.1 Continuation High School/Adult Education Graduation Requirements/California High School Exit Examination (CAHSEE).

SUBJECT: Approval of First Reading of Deletion of Board March 23,2015 Policy and Administrative Regulation 3312.3 Photographic Services

BACKGROUND

Administrative Regulation 3312.3, Photographic Services, describes in detail the District's procedures for photographic services for students in grades K-12.

ISSUE

The Administrative Regulation (AR) is from 1983 and does not meet the current needs of the schools and parents. Current procedures, as stated in the AR, require that all interested photographers display their products at MCS, which does not align with the digital age we are in. Staff conducted research and contacted many other school districts on this topic. All responding districts indicated they do not have a Board Policy or Administrative Regulation for photographic services. Staffs recommendation is to delete both the Board Policy and Administrative Regulation 3312.3 Photographic Services.

RECOMMENDATION

It is recommended that the Board of Education approve the first reading of deletion of Board Policy and Administrative Regulation 3312.3 Photographic Services.

SUBJECT: Approval of Authorization to Negotiate a March 23,2015 Guaranteed Maximum Price, Lease/Leaseback Agreement with Sinclair General Engineering Construction, Inc. for Paving Replacement at Transportation

BACKGROUND

The District's Transportation facility was built in 1969; final build out included asphalt concrete driveways and parking areas for buses, automobiles and equipment.

Asphalt concrete is composed of aggregate mixed with a binder. As the binder ages, its volatile components evaporate. Without maintenance, water and effects of the sun oxidize the binder causing brittleness. Transportation's asphalt areas were not maintained and are beyond their useful life.

ISSUE

Since project logistics are critical while performing reconstruction within an operating facility, it is staffs determination that the District would derive the best benefit by utilizing the leaselleaseback delivery method. With funding identified, it is recommended that the project be developed in accordance with Education Code 17406.

PROPOSAL

FISCAL IMPACT

The estimated cost for this project is $1,800,000. Funding for this project will come from one-time General Fund dollars.

SUBJECT: Approval of Memorandum of Understanding March 23,2015 with Golden Valley Health Centers for Replacement of Dental Center at Hanshaw Middle School

BACKGROUND

Since 1993, Modesto City Schools has provided space to Golden Valley Health Centers (GVHC), for a community dental clinic at Hanshaw Middle School. GVHC is a non-profit, public benefit corporation whose principal charitable activity is providing medical, dental and mental health services to the community.

ISSUE

In September of 2014, the modular dental clinic owned and operated by GVHC at the Hanshaw campus burned down. GVHC desires to replace the modular dental facility unit that was destroyed plus add one more unit directly adjacent.

PROPOSAL

GVHC proposes to replace one modular dental facility unit and add one modular dental facility unit on the Hanshaw campus where they have operated a dental clinic since 1993. With this proposal, the number of dental chairs for this community clinic would go from three (3) to six (6).

Hanshaw administrative staff and educational services staff concur with the proposal to replace and add to the on-site dental services clinic.

The Memorandum of Understanding (MOD) between the District and GVHC proposes that GVHC will be responsible for all maintenance and utility costs associated with the modular units. The MOU, in summary, authorizes GVHC to operate its community services facilities on the Hanshaw campus. All operations, liability and associated costs of the dental center are the responsibility of GVHC.

A copy of the MOU is available for review in the Planning Department.

FISCAL IMPACT

There is no fiscal impact to the District.

This model will continue the collaboration needed to promote School Readiness and Seamless Services for children and families for a full-day and full-year program providing greater access to services. Additionally, the California Department of Education has developed and implemented the California Preschool Learning Foundations (CPLF) that standardizes curricular goals within the following program componenets and developmental domains: Social-Emotional, Language & Literacy, English Language Development, Mathematics, SCience, Social Studies, Physical Development, Health, the Arts and Technology. This link and collaboration also enhances the learning environment through the mandatory use of the Thelma Harmes Early Childhood Environmental Rating Scale (ECERS).

Cost Allocation Plan Explanation and Rationale

Instructional support staff (Specialists and FSS's) are allocated at a higher percentage from federal funds as compared to state funds due to federal mandates, Head Start programs have far more services, reporting, tracking, and follow-up requirements, which constitute far more staff time for these instructional support activities.

Administrative staff, office support staff, and site staff are allocated based on the number of funded slots. Resources are assigned based on the number of children and families served.

Supplies and materials are allocated based on the number of funded slots.

Shared part day costs will be split 50/50 between RHS and Preschool at the following sites as appropriate: Bret Harte EI Vista Franklin Marsh; Pearson Shackelford Wilson Burbank Fairview Garrison Muir Rob Road Tuolumne Orville Wright

F.1.2 MODESTO CITY SCHOOLS

TO: Pamela Able, Superintendent Regular Meeting

SUBJECT: Report on Delayed Start March 23,2015

BACKGROUND

In response to the Board's request to research the impact of moving high schools' bell schedules to a later start time, the following information is provided. Currently, the school day for Modesto City Schools' high school students starts at 7:50 am and ends at 2:00 pm. This semester, we have approximately 1,771 students (does not include Elliott) enrolled in zero period which starts at 7:00 am. Research was done in three areas: (1) Adolescents' sleep needs, (2) Logistical challenges related to implementation, and (3) A review of how similar districts planned changes to school start times.

REPORT

The majority of research indicates that delayed school start times result in a variety of positive outcomes for adolescent students. Available research suggests that later school start times can positively impact adolescents' attendance, mood, and safety. While the majority of literature also points to improvements in academic achievement, a number of studies found that delayed start times have no impact on student academic outcomes.

Research provides consensus that adolescents do not get enough sleep by meeting the recommended 8.5 hours to 9.5 hours each night. A National Sleep Foundation survey found that eighty-seven percent (87%) of high school students in the United States do not get an adequate amount of sleep on school nights. Research has also shown that the timing of adolescent sleep is altered once they hit puberty. During puberty, teens experience a shift in circadian rhythms called "sleep phase delay" which delays their need to sleep by about two hours. This shift results in the difficulty most teens have falling asleep before 11 :00 pm. Early school start times require students to awaken at 6:00 am or earlier, putting them at risk for sleep deprivation. Some of the harmful side effects of sleep deprivation include: Daytime sleepiness and fatigue, deficits in information processing, memory lapses, difficulty handling complex tasks, decreased creativity and productivity, increased behavioral issues, and an increased likelihood of stimulant use.

Despite the benefits of later school start times, districts that seek to implement changes have been faced with opposition based on the logistics of shifting schedules. Challenges and possible solutions associated with changes to school start times are outlined below.

• Transportation challenges are significant since it would require the District to purchase more buses and hire more drivers. It takes approximately three (3) hours (first pick up 5:30 am to 7:55 am) to get all high school students transported to school. Modesto City Schools is similar to most districts in that it has a tiered bus system that uses the same buses to transport elementary, junior high, and high school students. This system is the most cost efficient because it saves money on the number of buses the school system owns, and

G.l Page 2 Report on Delayed Start

reduces the number of required bus drivers. Consequently, a delay in school start times at high school is likely to have an impact on elementary start times as well. After the high school routes are completed, our bus drivers then start on the elementary routes, and end with the junior high routes. Without significant added costs to our transportation infrastructure, delaying high school start times results in two options for the District - starting elementary sites earlier or delaying their start time. Both of these option have undesirable consequences.

In order to address these potential transportation problems, some districts employ a "direct flip" approach and swap high school start times with junior high or elementary start times. Most commonly, the flip occurs between elementary and high school since younger students wake up earlier according to research. While this is logistically simple, it has the potential to present additional problems. Parents of elementary school students may protest the change based on the potential negative impact that earlier start times may have on our youngest students. Some have argued that these students will have to go to bed even earlier to obtain their recommended amount of sleep and thus reduce the amount of time parents are able to spend with their children after work. There is also a common concern that young students may have to wait "in the dark" to catch the bus. As the result, the National Sleep Foundation indicates that a "direct flip cannot work unless all start times are reasonable." Other districts have taken the approach that changed all school start times by forty-five minutes. In Modesto City Schools, taking this approach would result in elementary start times ranging from 9: 11 am to 9:45 am.

Some Districts have mitigated some of the logistical complications with school bus transportation by relying on public transportation. This is certainly a possibility for our students that live within city limits and allows for the possibility of pushing District transportation resources on to students living outside the city in more rural areas. Public transportation may not offer our students the most efficient routes to school and require some students to transfer buses at the downtown station located on Ninth Street.

• Delayed start times also results in later release times. The impact of late start times on extra-curricular activities has also been cited by parents and students, especially those activities impacted by daylight hours. During winter months, teams may be vying for the same lighted fields or may have shortened practice time due to unsafe conditions cause by lack of daylight. Competitions with teams from outside districts could result in students needing to leave class early, impacting instructional time. However, studies by the National Sleep Foundation report that school districts that changed their school start times experienced very few problems related to student participation in extra-curricular activities. Districts that changed start times used the following strategies to assist with the impact on sports:

0.1(1) Page 3 Report on Delayed Start

o Added lights to fields and tennis courts or used mobile lights that could be moved depending on the season and venue. o Held some practices before school (which negates the benefits of late start). o Scheduled athletes in a PE class at the end of the day and releasing them early to go to competitions/games. Unfortunately, non-school-based extracurricular participation and student work schedules may be negatively impacted by delays to school start times. The National Sleep Foundation offers the following about the potential impact on student work schedules: " .... studies have shown that employers indicate a change in start times has not affected their business or number of hours their student employees can work. They indicate that extra help is not usually needed until school gets out anyway, so they can easily adjust to the new schedule. Other researchers have found that students who are employed for more than 15 hours per week are negatively impacted academically, so working fewer hours may be better for students who don't rely on the income for substantive needs."

• Decisions must take into account both student and employee needs. Any changes to teachers' work day would need to be successfully negotiated with both our certificated and classified unions. The desire for status quo has always created the difficulty for change. Families, students, and employees have established routines that would need to be rethought. Apprehension from the community about changes to school schedules stems from stakeholder concerns as it relates to work schedules; child care; and student drop off/pick up, necessary household chores, family times, and meal preparations. A primary concern is the possible changes in parents' work schedules.

• A change in schedules can be especially difficult for certain groups of students and programs such as special education and career centers. Consideration of delayed starting times should carefully consider the impact schedule changes will have on these populations.

Significant work must be done prior to a final decision is made on delaying school start time. Decisions must be thoughtful and take into account the entire community requiring a significant time commitment from District staff. It is unrealistic to believe this significant change could take place for the start of the 2015-2016 school year. Lead time is important to allow for communication with stakeholders and to prepare for a smooth transition.

The following recommendations are given in order to fully consider implementation: • Form committees to examine logistical problems associated with delayed starting times. • Talk with other Districts that have changed their start time to learn from their experiences. • Consider all relevant environmental factors induding traffic patterns, and faculty and staff commutes.

G.l(2) Page 4 Report on Delayed Start

• Include all stakeholders in the decision-making process and listen carefully to their concerns. Surveys of students, staff, parents, and the community should be done to collect, understand, and respond to concerns. Open forums with stakeholders allow the public an opportunity to engage in the decision. • Allow for ample time to allow for the community and parents to problem-solve personal schedule changes. • Inform and involve students in the decision-making process.

SUMMARY

In summary, the District should carefully study the full impact of a schedule change and proceed slowly to engage all stakeholders.
