Bolanos, who has been teaching at the High School for eight years, thanked current Board member and past High School principal Jim Garza for “taking a chance” on a neophyte teacher when Bolanos was transitioning from employment in the banking industry. Dylan Farris, the District’s Executive Director of Human Resources, announced that Hoover had also been selected as the El Segundo Unified Teacher of the Year. Said Superintendent Melissa Moore regarding Moote’s years of service: “Daphne has provided a tremendous contribution, I feel to the professionalism of our teachers,” terming Moote’s work in the District as “service over self.” Classified employees recognized by the Board included Sharon Felker, Kristin Knoll, Lynette Marcus and William Ochoa. Felker and Knoll both work at the Middle School, with the former as the Health Office assistant and the latter as an Instructional Assistant. Marcus is the Administrative Assistant to the Principal at Richmond Street School, and Ochoa, called a “bedrock employee” by Farris, toils in the custodial department at the High School. After Alex Nilsson’s student presentation, Moore revealed the results of the District’s Bond Feasibility poll, as the Board considers putting a school bond measure on the ballot in 2018. Pollster True North Research conducted the random poll, by phone and email, which yielded 352 participants. District needs were delineated during the presentation, including the upgrade of classrooms and instructional technology to support student achievement; improved student safety and campus security; and the repair and modernization of aging classrooms and school facilities. Poll results showed that 32 percent of the participants have children who currently attend District schools; 86 percent rated the quality of the schools as “excellent” or “good”; and 69 percent felt it was “very important or better” to repair and upgrade aging school facilities. Key takeaways from the poll included that initial testing showed community support, and that the community was pleased with the quality of District schools. Other results indicated the need to clarify the usage of the proceeds from the former Imperial Avenue school site property, as well as the importance of further educating and engaging the community members. On the issue of spending the proceeds from the property sale, Moore said a special Board meeting has been slated for May 22 to tackle that topic. Board Vice President Emilee Layne commented, post-presentation, that “we have not decided” to pursue a school bond. She implored community members to “really look at” the District’s Long-Range Facilities Master Plan and give feedback to Board members. Board Clerk Nancy Cobb mentioned the need to upgrade the District’s technology infrastructure. She complimented the District on keeping the infrastructure viable with “band aids and duct tape,” but said that upgrades are necessary. The Board then discussed Southern California Regional Occupation Center (SoCal ROC) billing options. The presentation offered three billing options for the program, including leaving the current plan in place. Board President Bill Watkins, a long-time proponent of SoCal ROC, opined that a prorated billing option would best serve the students’ and the District’s needs. Currently District members pay $1,234 per student enrolled per semester based on the prior year’s enrollment. The plan that Watkins is in favor of would allow the students to drop a class early in the semester, with the District incurring only a cost of $100. Among the eight consent items quickly passed by the Board during the 125-minute meeting was an agreement with Quality Fence to install a “double-drive” gate at the western entrance of the Eagles’ Nest preschool facility. The new gate will increase security at the preschool. The Board also passed a resolution designating the week of May 1-5 as Teacher Appreciation week, as well as approving a new District job description “Athletics Field Marshall” that would have the employee monitor High School PUBLIC NOTICES People may hear your words, but they feel your attitude. - John C.
