95:31Public Comment
Jenny and Archer (Orion students) (1min) — Two Orion students expressed concern about the proposed 3rd/4th grade combo class, asking for two dedicated third-grade classes so students aren't split and can be with more friends.
Allison Rhodes (3min) — Representing Clifford Elementary teachers, she presented a petition opposing multiple combination classrooms at Clifford, citing concerns about doubled teacher workload, lack of instructional assistant support, student achievement impacts, high IEP/504 population, and inequitable class size distribution across the district.
Andrew Chan (2min) — Parent of four Orion students argued that 3rd grade is a critical immersion year and proposed the district recruit enough students to justify two full 3rd grade classes rather than creating a 3rd/4th combo, warning that weakening the program would be hard to reverse.
Richard Palm (2min) — Parent shared how the Mandarin Immersion program has positively impacted his two daughters, including one with a history of epilepsy and an IEP, and expressed concern that a combo class would reduce the individualized attention his younger daughter needs.
Jason Madsen (3min) — Speaking on behalf of many 2nd grade MI families, he explained the proposed 3rd/4th combo structure, emphasized that 3rd grade is the last year of the 60/40 Mandarin-English split, and asked the district to reconsider and provide two full dedicated 3rd grade classes.
Ann Law (1min) — As a mother of twins in the Mandarin Immersion Program, she described being forced to choose which twin would be placed in the combo class versus a regular class, and asked the district to reconsider the proposal in fairness to all students.
Julia Redesnerda (2min) — Parent of a current 2nd grader and incoming TK student in the MI program expressed concern that the combo class proposal, combined with an already large class size cap of 31, would discourage families from staying in the program and could lead to further enrollment decline.
Heidi Glasser (1min) — A parent who has seen the MI program grow since its pilot year in 2015 shared that she previously pulled her son due to uncertainty about the program's future but committed her daughter to it, and now advocates for investing in the program's long-term sustainability to avoid parents having to make that difficult choice again.
Jasper Chen (1min) — Parent of two Orion children praised Principal Winnie's leadership in building the MI program and echoed concerns about maintaining the pipeline, urging the district to invest rather than compromise the program.
9.124:45Labor Association CommentsInformation
Maria Stockton (1min) — President of the CSEA classified unit requested that the district reinstate a calendar committee including CSEA and RCTA to collaboratively determine the school calendar start and end dates, noting that classified employees have lost summer work time due to the earlier start date.
