REGULAR MEETING The Board of Education of the City School District of the City of Cincinnati, Ohio, met pursuant to its calendar of meetings in the ILC at the Cincinnati Public Schools Education Center, 2651 Burnet Avenue, Monday, May 23, 2016 at 7:12 p.m., President Copeland-Dansby in the chair. The pledge to the flag was led by President Copeland-Dansby.

ROLL CALL Present: Members Bates, Bolton, Jones, Hoffman, Nelms, Minera, President Copeland-Dansby (7) Absent: None Superintendent Mary Ronan was present.

MINUTES APPROVED Mr. Nelms moved and Mr. Minera second that the minutes of the following meetings be approved without reading, copies of said minutes having been distributed to members and made available to the public and news media on May 24, 2016. Special Meeting – May 9, 2016 Regular Meeting – May 9, 2016 Special Public Meeting – May 12, 2016 Passed viva voce. President Copeland-Dansby declared the motion carried.

REPORT OF THE POLICY COMMITTEE The Policy Committee met on Monday, May 9, 2016 at 11:30 AM at the Cincinnati Public Schools Education Center in the Board Office Conference Room. New Policy 5112.01–Entrance Requirements for Preschool Dan Hoying, General Counsel Cheryl Broadnax, Assistant Superintendent The Committee began review of the policy and Committee Chair Hoffman recommended the following revision in the Enrollment category: Because of limited space, the District may assign a preschool student to a program located at a school outside of the family’s neighborhood zone. Students enrolled in a CPS school-based preschool shall have first priority to enroll in the kindergarten program at that school. OUTSIDE OF THEIR ZONE MAY CONTINUE IN THE KINDERGARTEN PROGRAM AT THAT SCHOOL, AS SPACE ALLOWS.

May 23 316 2016

REPORT OF THE POLICY COMMITTEE (cont.)

Mrs. Hoffman reported that the Board will be addressing the Intra-District Enrollment policy to discuss how to tackle students living within CPS and want to attend a school that is not in their zone. Priority order will also need to be determined in that policy. Committee Chair Hoffman informed the group that the Policy Committee will need to provide the Board with information on how to address the District having more applicants than available seats at the neighborhood and satellite schools, and how to prioritize those seats. The Committee had extensive dialogue about how to address the issue and Mrs. Hoffman reiterated that Head-Start has a priority order that has to be followed, which alleviates using the priority order process for magnet schools. Assistant Superintendent Broadnax reported that various risk factors, who comes in first and grant procedures are criteria used for determining priority for Head-Start. Mrs. Broadnax updated the Committee on preliminary costs of providing funding for unfunded seats. This was based only on current funding available and past knowledge of tuition paying families. The calculation included all expansion seats. On the high end, there are approximately 550 preschool seats in which, at this time, grant funds are not available. It would cost five-million dollars to fully fund 550 seats. On the low-end there are about 300 seats, and there are about 250 tuition seats. It would cost $2.8 million dollars to fully fund 300 seats. Mrs. Broadnax recommended continuing with first-come, first-served and continue to work with families to match them with grants that will make enrollment accessible, affordable, as well as working with families on locations that work best for them. She also advised that any concerns along the way can be revisited and families will not be turned away. The Committee agreed with Mrs. Broadnax recommendation and will include it in the policy. ACTION: Language on page two, the first sentence of the policy will be revised to: The DISTRICT Superintendent shall require that each child who registers for entrance to school provide: ACTION: The Committee will recommend approval of the Policy at the May 23, 2016 Regular Board meeting.

Policy 5113.01 – Preschool and Elementary Magnet School Enrollment The Committee reviewed revisions that were made to the Policy at the May 4, 2016 Partnership/Public Engagement Committee of the Whole meeting and recommended the following revision: Students enrolled in a MAGNET CPS preschool program located IN a magnet school have the option to remain enrolled in that magnet school’s kindergarten program without participating in the lottery process. ACTION: The Committee will recommend approval of the policy at the May 23, 2016 Regular Board meeting.

May 23 317 2016


Policy 5610 – Removal, Suspension, Expulsion, Permanent Exclusion of Students Committee Chair Hoffman informed the group that the Board assigned the Policy Committee to align the policy with the Board’s current practice of not expelling or suspending students in preschool, and kindergarten to third-grade. General Counsel Dan Hoying reported that the current practice was implied in Policy 2451 – Alternative To Expulsion Program, Grades 4-12, as those grades were not mentioned in the policy. Mr. Hoying recommended that the following language be added to page two of Policy 5610: IT IS THE POLICY OF THE BOARD OF EDUCATION THAT STUDENTS IN GRADES PRE-KINDERGARTEN TO THIRD GRADE SHALL NOT BE SUSPENDED OUT-OF-SCHOOL OR EXPELLED, EXCEPT AS REQUIRED BY LAW. ACTION: The Committee agreed with the revision and will recommend the policy to the Board for approval at the May 23, 2016 Regular meeting. Wellness Program Policies Jessica Shelly, Director of Food Services, Dr. Kevin Jamison, Assistant Director, Student Services, District Wellness Committee Chair; Michelle Hughes, Curriculum Manager, Physical Education and Health; Dr. Marilyn Crumpton, Cincinnati Health Department, Co-Chair, District Health and Wellness Committee; Meredith Potter, Consultant, Cincinnati Children’s Hospital, Successful Healthy Children; Aeisha White, Board Fellow Mrs. Shelly informed the group that revision to the Wellness policy is needed in-order to stay compliant with the United States Department of Agriculture requirements, continue to remain aligned with District Goals and support, maintain the District’s lead position among similar urban Districts in the nation, provide explicit guidance and support for schools in the area of wellness, have an impact on chronic health issues caused by obesity, inactivity and other poor nutrition choices, and to improve outcomes on the Wellness School Assessment Tool (Wellsat). The Wellsat assesses the quality of school district’s written wellness policies. Board Fellow Aiesha White provided the Committee with the following overview regarding revisions to the policy: Background The Healthy, Hunger Free Kids Act 2010 expanded its requirements of district wellness policies in 2014 requiring a number of improvements in public transparency, compliance targets, and the creation of school wellness policies1. The Act requires Local Education Agencies to

- Bring in additional stakeholders for development, implementation and review - Share public updates on wellness policies - Establish a local school wellness policy for all district schools with officials to secure compliance

In addition, Action for Healthy Kids conducted an Ohio School Nutrition Needs Assessment that collected and analyzed district wellness policies from all Ohio districts during the 2014-2015 school year to “compare strength and comprehensiveness and to provide districts with recommendations to improve policies”. Although Cincinnati Public Schools’ results2 showed that the policy was slightly above average, the data also showed significant areas of growth in most categories and a strong need for a policy revision. The Overall Score of the District Wellness Policy was a 65 total score out of 200 possible points. The Cincinnati Public Schools (CPS) district has developed a revised and comprehensive District Wellness Policy in order to become more compliant with USDA requirements and better support the Cincinnati Public School Board’s “Whole Child” development work. The revised policy also allows the district to further pursue opportunities for educational equity and student access to healthy, real world learning. Wellness Policy Revision Highlights 1 A complete list of these requirements can be found in the CPS Wellness Policy Executive Summary. 2 Contact Jessica Shelly for the full Ohio School Nutrition Needs Assessment.

http://www.wellsat.org/

May 23 318 2016


The revised CPS Wellness Policy focuses on seven key goal areas that are modeled after the latest requirements. There will be accountability for the implementation and regulation of this policy at both the district and school levels to ensure continuous development and success.

• Goal Area 1 – District and School Wellness Committees • Goal Area 2 – Wellness Policy Implementation • Goal Area 3 – School Meals and Nutrition • Goal Area 4 – Nutrition education • Goal Area 5 – Physical Education and Health Education • Goal Area 6 – Physical Activity • Goal Area 7 – Other Activities that promote wellness

The policy aims to ensure that students have access to healthy foods, receive quality nutrition education, and have opportunities to be physically active. Schools are encouraged to promote healthy lifestyles, support healthy staff practices and engage the community in wellness initiatives. Benefits of Revised Policy The revised CPS Wellness Policy will allow the district to

- Highlight areas of strength that are current practice, but were not previously mentioned in the policy - Reach compliance in all goal areas - Establish community partnerships for real world learning - Promote healthy practices and explicit guidance in wellness throughout all schools - Encourage healthy lifelong learning for all students

A copy of the Action for Healthy Kids’ Ohio School Nutrition Needs Assessment is available in the Board office. The Committee had extensive dialogue about the length of the policy and agreed that it needed to be more “parent friendly.” ACTION: Mrs. Shelly advised the Committee that she is recommending rescinding the following policies and including the language in the current Wellness Policy – 8515:

• 8500 – Food Services • 8510 – Sale and Consumption of Nutritional Foods • 8550 – Vending Machines and School Stores

ACTION: Mrs. Shelly and the Wellness Committee will revamp the policy to fewer pages and will make the following Goal Areas of the policy available in hyper-links. General Counsel advised that it would be legally okay for the policy to be the first two pages of the document, and hyper-link the goal areas. Goal Area 1: District and School Wellness Committee Goal Area 2: Wellness Policy Implementation, Monitoring, Accountability, and Community Engagement Goal Area 3: School Meals and Nutrition Goal Area 4: Nutrition Education Goal Area 5: Physical Education and Health Education Goal Area 6: Physical Activity Goal Area 7: Other Activities that Promote Student Wellness

ACTION: Mrs. Shelly will revise the language on page one of the policy to be more focused on students and highlight what the vision will create for the students and staff.

May 23 319 2016


ACTION: Page 18 of the policy that talks about promoting student wellness through community partnerships, community health promotion and engagement, staff wellness and health promotion, and professional development, will be moved to the front of the document. ACTION: The Wellness Committee will work with Public Affairs to include a “Wellness Tab” on the District’s website.

ACTION: The Policy Committee will recommend that the Board meet with the Alliance for Community and Educational Success Educational (ACES) Committee; a subcommittee of the Education and Entrepreneurship Committee of Cincinnati City Council, to discuss location of bike lanes.

ACTION: Committee Chair Hoffman informed the group that the Student Achievement Committee will discuss expanding recess time at the schools in-order to make a recommendation of their findings to the Policy Committee.

ACTION: Mrs. Shelley will contact Joan Lipinski, the District’s Wellness Works Program Coordinator to discuss the possibility of employees being awarded Wellness Dollars for investing in student wellness, and also awarded Wellness Dollars for reading the policy on Safe Schools. ACTION: The Wellness Committee will revise the policy with the recommended changes and submit them to Ms. Young by June 6, 2016. The Wellness Committee will update the Policy Committee at the June 13, 2016 Policy Committee meeting. The Policy Committee will forward their recommendation for approval at the Board’s Regular meeting on June 27, 2016. The meeting adjourned at 5:46 PM. Policy Committee Staff Liaisons Elisa Hoffman, Chair Dan Hoying, General Counsel Carolyn Jones Yenetta Harper, Director, Teacher and Principal Development A. Chris Nelms Paul McDole, Director, Human Resources Sarah Trimble-Oliver, Chief Information Officer Mrs. Hoffman moved that the Report of the Policy Committee be accepted. Passed viva voce. President Copeland-Dansby declared the motion carried.

May 23 323 2016


Cincinnati Public Schools (CPS) and Cincinnati Preschool Promise (CPP) Legal and Financial Parameters Impacting Possible Governance Arrangements The Committee discussed the following questions with Cincinnati Preschool Promise Community:

• CPS Treasurer will explain and diagram how levy generated new money, grant money and how state money flow to and through the District based on Ohio law, CPS’ best practices, and the District's commitment and the public's demand for financial transparency and accountability.

It was discussed that, as CPS would be the taxing and fiscal agent, all public revenue would flow through CPS' Treasurer's Department much as other outside dollars for community schools and vouchers do using all legal and best financial practices.

• Review relevant existing partnerships and contractual relationships that have a history of expending CPS public tax,

grant dollars and still have separate Boards. (Such as Mayerson Academy, ABC and Hamilton County Education Services.)

Current Board partnerships with outside agencies and organizations can and do offer models on which the new possible partnership can be developed. Although Stephanie Byrd suggested the new CPS/Community Partnership would have differences due to its special responsibilities.

• The "requirements" and "procedures" and ethics of competitive bidding.

Competitive bidding and other CPS-established financial practices to ensure transparency and accountability would need to be enforced.

• We will review CPS Board Policies and Administrative Best Practices regarding Minority Contractors, Supplier

Diversity and Local Vendors Priority policies.

Board policies such as ones on student discipline, supplier diversity and EEOC rules would be in effect as part of the relationship among CPS and the participating vendors and chosen contractors.

• CFT and AFT representatives will present information about best practices and established labor standards, and

career ladders in private preschool businesses, support services, and in public sector preschool operations around the country. That information will help inform the Board as upon review of AMOS' transformative People's Platform, which is the bedrock of the Preschool Promise Movement.

The CFT and AFT presented a statement (attached) in support of the AMOS People's Platform and the necessity of guaranteeing best labor and employment standards as well as appropriate professional development.

ACTIONS: A small work group will be put together to address the following issues that were raised about

preschool/teachers: workforce standards and development, establishing partnerships, the Oak’s Piece, using New Horizons Child Care as a sample, career ladder, K12 compensation parity, PreK teachers hourly, mentoring with CPS Teachers, content development, compliance for employees, and develop early learning career ladders.

Board staff will research the Oaks model suggested by Catherine Ingram.

A work group, suggested by Treasurer Wagner, will be established in order to discuss and anticipate the flow of work the new partnership would need. Members of that committee will include at least Treasurer Wagner, Cheryl Broadnax, Andrea Faulkner and Terri England.

Ronan, Superintendent Melanie Bates Jennifer Wagner, CFO/Treasurer Carolyn Jones Bill Moehring, Chief Operating Officer Ms. Bolton moved that the Report of the Finance Committee be accepted. Passed viva voce. President Copeland-Dansby declared the motion carried. CINCINNATI FEDERATION OF TEACHERS – AMERICAN FEDERATION OF TEACHERS

Cincinnati Preschool Program Expansion Framework Attached is a proposed Process and Infrastructure Organizational Chart for pre-k expansion. The chart portrays the roles and relationships among and between autonomous public authorities, namely:

• Cincinnati School Board, • Institutions within Cincinnati Public Schools (CPS), • Private pre-k and early learning providers, • Prime contractors, • Frontline employees, and • Sub-contractors.

It was developed based on the Rand and Parthenon Reports, Cincinnati School Board’s discussions with key stakeholders, community input and organizational dialogue, AFT/CFT research and advocacy, established CPS board policies and administrative best practices, and our understanding of the major issues that caused the most recent Park Levy to fail. Five principles guided this framework: 1. Kindergarten Readiness can significantly improve through quality preschool expansion.

To be effective expansion should:

• Increase the volume of quality seats offered through existing public and private quality provide • Increasing the number of quality providers • Subsidize only 3 Star providers and investing in providers at ratings of 2 Stars and less in order for them to attain

the Step Up To Quality Rating and ultimately receive a 5 Star Rating • Widen the choices available to families and better matching families' needs • Create equitable access for all, while targeting the neediest children first.

May 23 325 2016


2. Full financial transparency in all operations is needed. Any funds raised to support pre-k expansion through a school district levy would be public dollars that the Board would ultimately be accountable to the public for, therefore all Board rules, regulations and best financial practices must be observed. Taking advantage of public institutions and processes already in place creates a system of checks and balances that ensures transparency. Existing CPS policies, practices, structures and relationships regarding Local School Decision Making Committees (LSDMCs), Community Learning Centers (CLCs), contractors, subcontractors, and supplier diversity, minority and local vendors’ policies will be used as models in establishing the pre-k expansion framework. 3. Workforce employment standards and professional development are crucial to pre-k success. Structures need to be in place guaranteeing preschool quality as well as fair employment and compensation practices. The framework must be built on participating private pre-k and early learning providers securing Step Up To Quality Standards, the AMOS PROJECT People's Platform, as well as nationally recognized best practices with regards to preschool career ladders. All early childhood educators should start at a base wage of $15 and as they pursue training and higher education, move to parity with educators in the CPS early childhood education program. 4. Informed oversight is needed to avoid conflicts of interest The CPS Board, with community input, shall appoint a committee of educational, labor and university experts to oversee and select a prime contractor to provide professional development and achieve established labor standards for all providers. By having one entity that is solely focused on workforce issues, and not handling program administration or directly working with center owners, workforce needs will be better met. This entity can also advocate for and pursue additional funding to help early childhood educators pursue higher education. The CPS Board, with community input, shall appoint a Community Board to oversee and select a prime nonprofit contractor as the Preschool Promise Agency and a separate and distinct, prime contractor to provide Evaluative Services the Professional Committee. The Community Board will have members serving staggered terms and will meet all ethics and financial transparency requirements of all public board members. 5. Administrative structures should respect community input, public transparency and the autonomy of pre-k and early learning providers. The CPS Board respects the autonomy private pre-k and early learning providers but is committed to providing and ensuring that there are structures in place for them to succeed. Specifically around financial transparency, efficiency and verification:

• The CPS Treasurer and her department will handle the financial collection, disbursement and verification of public pre-k funds

• The CPS EMIS Administration will be involved in the reporting and verification on enrollment data • Managing, evaluating and direction will not be provided by CPS

May 23 326 2016


Instead the CPS Board will:

• Appoint the two representative bodies, (1) The Kindergarten Readiness Board and a (2) Professional Development Services and Workforce Standards Board.

• Enlarge the Treasurer's Department to administer the new revenue, • Develop the initial three RFPs (professional development, evaluative services, and pre-k administration) to establish

three respondent pools, • Assure the community bodies have publicly adopted charters and staggered member terms, • Oversee the Treasurer's Office function regarding the newly generated revenue, • Hold the prime contractors contracts, • Hear in public session semiannual reports from the two community bodies, • Report at least annually the district wide Preschool Promise of Kindergarten Readiness Network Financials, • Continue to insist on relevant board policies such as its Equity, Vendor Selection, Student Discipline, Equal Protection

and Employment HR Policies and Financial Processes being guides in the administering of the newly generated revenue.
