Resolution Opposing Further Cuts to Education
Motion by Mr. Knoll, seconded by Mr. Myrick, and unanimously carried, that Resolution
No. 09-10-26, Resolution Opposing Further Cuts to Education, be adopted:
Resolution No. 09-10-26
Opposing Further Cuts to Education in Governor’s Proposed Budget
Whereas, despite Governor Schwarzenegger’s vow to protect education, his proposed
budget manipulates the numbers to reduce education funding by $900 million in the current
year and an additional $2.4 billion in 2010-11; and
229.
Regular Meeting - April 6, 2010
Resolution No. 09-10-26 - contd.
Whereas, California’s education system plays a vital role in the state’s economic future
and schools are now in a crisis bigger than any ever seen – one that the governor and
legislators must take more seriously; and
Whereas, these unprecedented cuts are changing the face of education for an entire
generation of school-children; and
Whereas, California’s educational programs have been cut to the bone, in some cases
down to the marrow, and as a result many schools have been forced to eliminate summer
school, libraries, transportation, athletics, technology, agriculture, Regional Occupational
Programs (ROP), and Adult Education; and
Whereas, the educational programs being cut are the very programs that help our students
succeed in school and compete in the workforce; and
Whereas, administrative costs have taken the biggest hit in most districts and yet the
governor’s budget proposal recommends that 10 percent be cut from school district and
county office of education administrative costs; and
Whereas, district administration provides important functions that have a direct impact on
what happens in the classroom and currently California’s schools rank among the lowest in
the nation in the number of district administrators per student; and
Whereas, schools simply can’t continue to absorb these cuts on top of the $17 billion in
reductions they’ve endured over the past two years; and
Now, Therefore, be it Resolved that the Covina-Valley Unified School District opposes
further cuts to education funding and urges the legislature to take responsibility for
California’s future by making education a priority.
Passed and Adopted, by the Board of Education of the Covina-Valley Unified School
District, Los Angeles County, State of California, on April 6, 2010.

COVINA-VALLEY UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT
Use of School Facilities
The Governing Board recognizes that District facilities and grounds are a community resource
and authorizes their use by community groups for purposes provided for in the Civic Center Act
when such use does not interfere with school activities.
All school-related activities shall be given priority in the use of facilities and grounds under the
Civic Center Act. Thereafter, the use shall be on a first-come, first-served basis.

Recreation
The Board believes that the primary function of the Covina-Valley Unified School District is the
education of the people we serve, and that in discharging this responsibility, we must consider it
above all other responsibilities.
The Board further believes that community recreation is an important service that the
communities served by this District deserve, and that the communities must have an adequate
recreation program.
The Board believes that the recreation program is the primary responsibility of the city, county,
and state, and that it is a secondary responsibility of the District.
In discharging this secondary responsibility, we are anxious to make available to the city, county,
or state, physical facilities which we own and which will enable them to carry out their primary
responsibility. We will make these facilities available on a gratis basis, providing such use does
not interfere with the educational program. The District will contribute funds from its taxing
power to maintain and operate these facilities. It will not contribute funds from its taxing power
to support the operational part of the community recreation program. It may use such taxes in
support of a noontime supervision program at all schools.
The District will provide transportation equipment to a city, county, or state recreation agency
when such action does not interfere with the normal operation of the educational program. The
recreation agency shall pay a fee established by the Superintendent which will cover all expenses
incurred by such action.
