The California Schools Employee Benefits Organization (CSEBO) is a Joint Powers Authority (JPA) that provides pooled, self-funded health benefits including medical, dental, and vision coverage to public educational agencies across California. Through a shared risk model, CSEBO enables participating organizations to access stable, cost-effective benefits while maintaining local control.

This resolution authorizes Bridges to join CSEBO as a non-voting member in connection with the transition to a new group benefits provider. Approval of this resolution will:

• Enable participation in CSEBO’s pooled medical, dental, and vision benefit programs
• Provide access to large-group purchasing and risk-sharing to support cost stability
• Establish membership under the Joint Powers Agreement without voting representation
• Authorize the Executive Director (or designee) to execute all necessary agreements to implement coverage

Because we will be offering two overlapping TK cohorts in a single classroom, we are building a fenced-in outdoor classroom space for our TK students to use. We request the board's approval to build perimeter fencing around a portion of the TK building. The quote has been prepared and negotiated and has been approved by CVUSD. 

We may extend the fencing to connect with existing fencing, so we are requesting that the board approve about $4,500 additional to fund the possible fence extension.

The current Family Handbook is being retired to allow for the adoption of a more streamlined and updated version. Over time, the existing handbook has developed areas of duplication and reduced clarity. Retiring this version ensures the school can transition to a more cohesive, user-friendly document that better reflects current practices, aligns with updated legal requirements, and is easier for families to navigate and understand. Approval of this item is recommended. 

The revised handbook has been developed to provide a more streamlined, user-friendly resource for families. It eliminates duplicate content, improves organization, and enhances clarity, making it easier to read and navigate. The handbook also reflects current school practices and aligns with updated California Education Code requirements and recent legislative changes. Approval of this item is recommended.
