00:16:54 James Spee: Good morning! James Spee, University of Redlands and ONE i/e
00:22:23 Jackie Melendez: Hello everyone! Jackie Melendez | IEGO | jmelendeziego@iegives.org | cell – 909-268-2967
00:24:39 James Spee: Another issue is that high school pathways do not always connect at the community college closest to them.
00:25:02 Lisa Kiplinger Kennedy: @James, Agreed!
00:25:08 Rose Gonzalez: We can leverage resources
00:25:30 Ida Hermosillo, GIA: Part of the group work today will ask you to share on barriers. James, please make sure to include your thoughts in that section. Great point!
00:51:00 Wayne Fletcher: Our jam boards were view only.
00:51:17 Michael Wiafe: Wayne, which group were you in?
00:52:40 Rose Gonzalez: Are the jamboard links for each meeting stored somewhere we can access?
00:53:13 Lisa Kiplinger Kennedy: @Rose, great question. I was wondering that too
00:54:23 Carlos Ayala: We will post the information on the GIA K-16 collaborative website.
00:55:29 Rose Gonzalez: Thank you. ?
00:55:31 Laurie Schoelkopf: Yes, Jamboards will remain available and open for people to continue adding.

01:01:11 Michael Wiafe: California’s Cradle to Career Data System is aimed to help with that kind of alignment! I love that discussion.
01:04:11 Rose Gonzalez: One critical factor for this type of work will be for us to develop a common language around pathways. What is a “pathway” in the context of this work? Each level has a different definition. We may be all talking about “pathways” but we’re meaning different things when we say “pathway.”
01:05:43 Conrad Shayo: Rose, I agree with you completely.
01:06:53 Rose Gonzalez: Thank you
01:06:57 Avila Avila: great job

00:32:56 Lisa Kiplinger Kennedy: How do you see this funding being tied together with the two grants that the County workforce are working on? Maybe it makes sense for there to be a common steering committee for the region for all three of the grants since they are so similar.
00:35:38 Deanna Krehbiel: That’s an interesting point Lisa. We need to ensure we are not duplicating efforts and overburdening our institutions. We have to use the funds wisely and increase the capacity and build more infrastructure, ie.: faculty, space, etc…
00:36:21 Lisa Kiplinger Kennedy: Yes
00:36:47 Lisa Kiplinger Kennedy: Thanks Mariannn, thjose were the two I was referring to

00:31:14 James Spee, Univ of Redlands and ONE i/e: My question, too, @Wayne.
00:32:00 James Spee, Univ of Redlands and ONE i/e: Looks like we could be represented by being pathway chairs.
00:32:31 Aileen Dinkjian: Good morning everyone – Aileen Dinkjian from the University of La Verne adinkjian@laverne.edu
00:32:59 Stephani Congdon: Let’s not forget Organizations like the autism society that works in both counties

00:36:45 Michael Wiafe: I will alert the hosts
00:37:27 Aileen Dinkjian: @Michael, yes, we would like to know what space private institutions have in the steering committee given we do serve the same community/region and support K-16 pathways of all students.
00:38:00 Stephani Congdon: And what about the thousands served by opportunity and charters.
00:38:44 Joseph Williams: Who can make nominations?
00:38:54 Michael Wiafe: Anyone can make nominations
00:40:02 Stephani Congdon: I would like the list
00:40:26 Becky Sumbera: I believe all at large representatives will include the voices of all willing partners in an equitable manner.
00:40:48 Becky Sumbera: Maybe through sub-committees
00:41:23 Stephani Congdon: Agree
00:42:15 Stephani Congdon: And Cambridge
00:42:39 Rosalinda Rivas, MVC: @Carlos,would you be so kind to send me the list as well. Rosalinda.Rivas@mvc.edu
00:43:27 Joseph Williams: Consider increasing the number of students to three one from k12, one from the community college and one from the University.
00:43:41 Dina Walker: @Carlos, Can you please send me the list as well. -Dina
00:44:16 Stephani Congdon: Support James comments
00:45:14 Stacey Syrocki: I also support the recommendation for Private college/University representation on this endeavor!
00:46:28 Lisa Kiplinger Kennedy: Absolutely should add private
00:46:30 Stephani Congdon: Support
00:46:37 Susan Gomez: I wholeheartedly agree it should be both private/nonprofit
00:46:47 Damien O’Farrell: I support the addition of at least 1 elected private institution representative.
00:47:31 Rosalinda Rivas, MVC: I support it — We should have their voice heard and included
00:47:33 Wayne Fletcher: I think it makes sense. Privates educate about 20% of the 4-year students (UC 27% and CSU 53%)
00:47:42 Theresa Fowler: @ agree with Damien
00:48:03 Stephani Congdon: Csusb. U have to share
00:48:40 Joseph Williams: Will there be a focus on sustainability for this collaborative or is this the only funding opportunity that will be considered?
00:49:31 Summer Steele: Agreed!
00:49:32 Graciela Moran: Yes I agree Alex!
00:49:37 Joseph Williams: Thank you Alex
00:49:40 Damien O’Farrell: +1 Alex.
00:49:41 Ray Cuellar: 100% Alex!
00:49:48 Maral Hernandez: *agree with joseph comment to increase student rep, but include 1 uc 1 csu students. instead of just one from university.
00:50:19 Susan Gomez: Helps build infrastructure! +Alex!
00:50:20 Carol Tsushima: Amen Alex!
00:50:21 Summer Steele: Fantastic!
00:50:24 Damien O’Farrell: not jut a funnel for the money, but a magnet!
00:50:26 Becky Sumbera: Well said Alex
00:50:31 Stephani Congdon: Truth Alex but privates and charters need a voice
00:50:37 Jennifer O’Farrell: Yes!
00:51:38 Stephani Congdon: Yes they will
00:51:51 Michael Wiafe: I like your idea Joseph with students, I would love to balance that with a student advisory committee to make sure we have much more voices involved than the 3 you proposed. As for sustainability, I developed 8 criteria that we can use to prioritize to develop pathways and one of those is economic mobility/sustainability
00:52:06 Damien O’Farrell: Even if the money can not invested in private schools, they can still be a part of the conversation about how the money can be best used and remain a part of the conversation to know how to align efforts accordingly.
00:52:16 Michael Wiafe: Agreed Damien.
00:52:33 Jake Poore: Here is a list of folks who have registered for at least one of the weekly K-16 conversations: https://gia.echofactory.dev/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/K-16-Registration-Run-3-10-simple.pdf
00:52:43 Joseph Williams: Thank you @Michael
00:52:55 Stephani Congdon: There are public charters
00:53:11 Carol Tsushima: All efforts of this collaborative should/will benefit the region as a whole, therefor as many voices from our region is required.
00:53:34 Stephani Congdon: Thank you
00:53:46 Michael Wiafe: 8 Criteria (draft) are : Effectiveness, Accessibility, equity, implementation feasibility, Economic flexibility/sustainability, Economic mobility, Recovery with Equity levers and Geo-political feasibility
00:54:07 Chris Mackey: There seems like a great opportunity to create an ecosystem that elevates post-secondary education in the minds of the people we serve. Whether that directly benefits privates in the short term, the learnings and cultivation of possibility that come from participation in the grant formulation and execution will benefit all over time.
00:55:38 Becky Sumbera: @ Carlos, yes, a structure of collaboration to assist the IE will bring success and future funds
00:55:53 Lisa Kiplinger Kennedy: @ Carlos…YES!!!
00:56:11 James Spee, Univ of Redlands and ONE i/e: Don’t make it a zero sum game,, please.
00:56:14 Chris Mackey: Totally agree -= we will learn so much together
00:57:36 Michael Wiafe: I am really glad that everyone is engaging in this conversation
00:58:20 Alan Braggins: I think Private should be Private Non-Profit
00:59:22 Becky Sumbera: Should we put it in chat
00:59:29 Lisa Kiplinger Kennedy: 4
00:59:34 Ray Cuellar: 4
00:59:35 Becky Sumbera: 5
00:59:36 Ruben Gonzales: 4
00:59:36 Rosalinda Rivas, MVC: 4
00:59:38 Erin Brinker: 4
00:59:39 Stacey Syrocki: 4
00:59:39 Alan Braggins: 4

00:59:43 Karen Goss: 5
00:59:50 Rachel Weiss: 5
00:59:51 Theresa Fowler: 4
00:59:51 Dina Walker: 4
00:59:53 Joseph Williams: 4
00:59:53 Susan Gomez: 4
00:59:55 Chris Mackey: 4
00:59:59 Gustavo Oceguera: 4
01:00:03 Stephani Congdon: Mostly. 3
01:00:14 Lorena Corona: 5
01:01:06 Theresa Fowler: Yes more students- I agree
01:01:10 Jennifer O’Farrell: Agreed – more students
01:01:13 Alan Braggins: Again, I believe Private should be Private Non-Profit
01:01:14 Becky Sumbera: I think we talked about students last meeting. It would be a sub-group
01:01:15 Lisa Kiplinger Kennedy: Yes, 3 students would be good.
01:01:25 Aileen Dinkjian: Yes, agreed to that Beth.
01:01:30 Susanne Mata: Agree, student voices would be good
01:01:31 Ray Cuellar: Love that idea Beth!
01:01:54 Becky Sumbera: I link that idea Beth
01:01:57 Graciela Moran: Perfect! Thank you for the support
01:02:28 Alex Avila: ? congratulations
01:02:42 Graciela Moran: I second
01:03:35 Stephani Congdon: Be as inclusive as possible
01:03:46 Carol Tsushima: There are existing student advisories that I’m sure we can leverage instead of recreating new. SBCSS has a county-wide student advisory group that represents multiple districts/areas.
01:03:48 Michael Wiafe: Student government external affairs folks will be the ones ? I can help out with finding the best folks to bring in
01:04:10 Dina Walker: In agreement with adding a Student Advisory Board. Especially when implementation begins.
01:04:16 Graciela Moran: Likewise here with Michael! ?
01:04:53 Michael Wiafe: Students should be ingrained throughout the entire structure, workgroups and all.
01:07:02 Stephani Congdon: 3

01:07:34 Susanne Mata: I am hosting a 10 am so have to leave. Keep me posted on how I can assist. Thanks. smata@sbccd.edu
01:07:45 Julian Cuevas: Can we build a safe space for those who may be a 1 or 2 to follow up if they’re not comfortable being put on the spot?
01:12:03 Jackie Melendez: I have tojump off. If you are interested in CERF, please register for the Inland Empire Info Session here: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_U_PPBUlnSoWzwzPDJMJ5Vg

00:01:18 Becky Sumbera: Good Morning!!
00:01:30 Kimberly Collins: Good morning
00:01:40 Aileen Dinkjian: Good morning!
00:03:27 Michael Wiafe: https://gia.echofactory.dev/k-16-education-collaborative/
00:08:37 Ann Marie Sakrekoff: State website: https://k16collaborative.org/
00:09:22 Michael Wiafe: https://k16collaborative.org/
00:09:30 Michael Wiafe: Ah! Beat me too it. Thanks Ann Marie
00:11:24 Felix Marhuenda: is there a repository where the recordings of these meetings are shared?
00:11:37 Michael Wiafe: Yes, this website! https://gia.echofactory.dev/k-16-education-collaborative/
00:11:50 Felix Marhuenda: Thank you Michael
00:13:10 Becky Sumbera: Looks great!
00:26:58 pam robinson: Can the K-12 be called Early Care and Ed-12
00:28:44 Debra Mustain: Need CBO representation, who will help us with ensuring equitable participation and outcomes?
00:34:31 Becky Sumbera: I would agree Carlos, working groups are the key for inclusiveness.
00:35:46 Diana Fox: one more thought that only 1 student rep may be intimidating for that 1 student and would recommend 2. sorry to have to go to another meeting. thank you all
00:36:16 Michael Wiafe: Great points!
00:37:27 Michael Wiafe: “Include at least one K-12 school district, at least one University of California campus, at least one California State University campus, and at least one California Community College district.”
00:38:51 Becky Sumbera: Could the one student have a working group of all K-12, CC, and University students? This would allow a student voice but from many.
00:40:09 Aileen Dinkjian: What role do you see for non profit private universities such as the University of La Verne, which has a land of educational opportunities with our launch of a new College of Health and Community Well-Being. We are creating pipelines with high school students to enter our programs with the needs for nurses and pharm techs. We serve them the same community essentially as it relates to supporting workforce development.
00:42:16 Becky Sumbera: I think the CSU & UCR would need to invite them to a working groups for input and participation. We want to be inclusive as we all contribute to our community.
00:43:41 Louie Rodriguez: To build on Michael and Becky’s comments, maybe there could be 1-2 students on the steering committee, student representation on working groups, and a parallel student advisory committee.
00:44:35 Becky Sumbera: I agree Summer.
00:44:58 Aileen Dinkjian: Yes on the high desert representation!
00:45:17 Michael Wiafe: I like that idea Louie, students should be part of this throughout the structure
00:45:33 Beth Higbee: I do that the requirement to implement the Recover with Equity goals will be helpful in keeping us on the equity path.
00:47:14 Beth Higbee: I agree Louie, the student voice piece would be very powerful. And, we have been doing this in our region, we have a good foundation underway.
00:47:33 Damien O’Farrell: Love the comments about representation and making sure to include CBO’s to keep equity work in focus. I’d also be interested in solidifying a strong vetting tool that helps identify what types of CBO’s might be best positioned to play this role.
00:47:39 Becky Sumbera: I think the structure is Excellent. I think the details we are talking about are on the working groups or Advisory groups.
00:48:11 Alex Avila: Great job Carlos. ? ?
00:48:28 Marvin Espinoza: Looking forward to the next round and engagement
00:49:37 Jackie Melendez: Great job, Carlos !!! ?
00:49:59 Alex Avila: We can include the Rialto school district who almost never get highlighted in these types of platforms. I will be bring this up next week.
00:50:04 Rose Gonzalez: Will there be enough funding for all 4?
00:51:09 Lorena Corona: I think the structure is on the right path. I want to know if there will be a structured way to include the wisdom of groups like Umoja and Puente Program?
00:52:31 Alex Avila: i am part of UMOJA at Valley
00:53:20 Carol Tsushima: Will there be concentrated efforts to resource map those efforts already occurring in the region to identify gaps and the areas we should be placing efforts/funding/energies?
00:54:01 pam robinson: How are we including Early Care and Education groups?
00:54:47 Lorena Corona: Thank you
00:54:54 Becky Sumbera: Excellent point, this would be the in-depth I was talking about.
00:55:33 Jackie Melendez: I have to jump off! Great meeting. I am super excited to be a part of this group.
00:55:51 Becky Sumbera: Thank you all, great discussion!
00:56:07 Louie Rodriguez: Yes to Carol’s point.
