Back in the spring of 2016, Soon, then a sixth-grader, had participated in the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California’s “Water is Life” art contest. The annual education program and contest seeks to “inspire and challenge students to explore and portray the importance of water and water efficiency with creative slogans and creative artwork.” Soon’s renderings, which competed with students from more than 470 school districts and encompassed nearly 15,000 young artists, were selected last June as among only 36 artists to have their work featured in the Basin’s “Water is Life” calendar. On top of that accolade, Soon’s submission was selected as the cover artwork for this year’s calendar. Over 10,000 calendars, featuring Soon’s talents, have been printed and distributed across the region. “We congratulate Nayeli Soon for winning the Municipal Water District poster contest and thank Scott Houston for being here to present the award,” Board President Bill Watkins said. After a report from the Board’s student representative Alex Nilsson, Middle School Principal Jack Plotkin and some of his leadership group provided a presentation that delved into a possible schedule change for the 2017/18 school year. The potential revamps, noted Plotkin, were based on “identified student need.” Part of the timeline included in the process of exploring changes in the master schedule featured the formation of an exploration committee as far back as 2013, multiple staff discussions, an initial staff survey, a school site council discussion, and then a final staff survey leading to Tuesday evening’s Board presentation. A final scheduling decision is on the docket for the School Board’s March 28 meeting. Tuesday’s presentation identified perceived “needs,” including boosting the declining number of ninth graders enrolling in Spanish II or higher, and a parent survey asking for a more “robust” Spanish program and daily music. Multiple schedule options received consideration and eventually winnowed down to two. Schedule “A” would encompass seven total periods. Schedule “E” would include eight total periods. The presentation highlighted sample drafts of both schedules and delineated the advantages and challenges of implementing either schedule. Schedule “A” advantages included more time in “Core” subjects and that it “meets the needs” of teachers who want to see students every day. Challenges noted for that schedule included “shorter classes not conducive to inquiry,” and more nightly homework to manage. Among the advantages listed for schedule “E” were additional elective offerings and less nightly homework to manage. Challenges faced by the adoption of schedule “E” include “less consistent daily schedule” and that it “does not meet the need of teachers who want to see their students every day.” The final Middle School staff survey yielded these results: Schedule “A”, 19 votes; Schedule “E”, 20 votes, with one abstention.
