Board hosted breakfast on August 23.

CBO will present the school's financials as of June 30, 2022. These will not be actuals as June 30 is the end of the fiscal year and it takes until late August to close the books on the prior fiscal year.

Since the state's final budget increased the Local Control Funding Formula revenue by 6.56% over the May Revise level upon which we built our Adopted Budget, the CBO recommends the board approved the Revised Budget that includes this revenue increase. As previously discussed, this 6.56% COLA is being spent on a 5% COLA for all salary schedules. The 5% increase in salaries and benefits accounts for 90% of this 6.56% COLA.

LCHS Alpine: The roof on the MPR is done and the cost credited toward our first month's rent. Interior and exterior painting is completed. A concrete courtyard has been poured. The security system, phone system, intercom system, and internet network connection has been installed. The fire alarm has been tested. The trees have been trimmed, the irrigation system is being fixed, and the landscaping is being completed. All LCHS belongings have been moved from Lemon Grove to Alpine.

Junior Academy: Roof work completed on July 11. The cross removal was completed on June 29. The field has been reseeded and Legacy bricks installed. The WiFi network has been upgraded. We are still waiting on the screens in the auditorium to be installed.

Primary Academy: Classroom roof repairs should be completed this week.

Liberty Academy: Playground repair and shade replacement is scheduled for this week.

On May 27, a status conference was held with the judge where SOS and SDCOE/LFCS agreed to a stipulation staying any action until a status conference on September 30, 2022. Regarding the case v. San Diego County Board of Supervisors, the appellate hearing occurred on July 14, 2022. The judge disagreed with the trial judge's decision and has sent the case back to the trial judge for further litigation.

The CBO recommends the board approve the updated 2022-23 LFCS salary schedules. Due to the state's adopted budget increasing the LCFF base grant by a COLA of 6.56%, all of the previously approved salary schedules have been increased by a COLA of 5%. 

The CBO recommends the board approve the 2022-23 LFCS Independent Study Board Policy. It mirrors the 2021-22 policy but adds language related to SPED students, the timeline for signing master contracts, exemptions for tiered reengagement and synchronous instruction, and the timeline for tiered reengagement.

The CBO recommends the board approve the 2022-23 LFCS Homeless Education Policy. Having this policy board approved is a condition of receiving Title I funds.

The CBO recommends the board approve the schools' 2022-23 Title I application. We plan to use the funds to pay for summer school staff and program and our intervention staff and program. The school should be awarded about $300,000 with 15% of it able to carry over to 2023-24 if necessary.
