    AggravatedAssaultandBatteryOfTwoKids DonnieBarclfitNutritionServicesFieldSupervisorAttackerAndStalker over 2 years ago

    To the PTA

    The aggravated assault and battery of 2 white male adolescents using a 2x4 wooden construction beam by Mr Donnie Barclift, Nutrition Services, Field Supervisor was an unpredictable violent premeditated attack of a black adult male on two white children. Though this happened in '86/7 Mr Barclift showed his nature by uploading to his youtube channel a black adult male beating another black adult male with the same 2x4 wood beam he beat the kids with. This was reported to the Ombudsperson who did nothing but inform Mr Barclift to remove the video. He did, then shortly after uploaded a new video of a new attacker with a 2x4 wood beam. One of the kids Mr Barclift beat in the 80's died the same year OUSD hired Mr Barclift, from a drug overdose in 2009. The other kid victim was his inspiration to seek employment at OUSD since he became a teacher shortly after moving to San Francisco. https://www.ipetitions.com/petition/child-predator-employed-in-the-oakland-unified

    Kids deserve better. All OAKLAND kids deserve better. District and Charter. It starts with the building. It's that simple.

    I am a staff member at Cox and am constantly in awe of my fellow staff members, students, and family community. Cox can continue to provide an excellent education for our students with or without the repairs, but the repairs will definitely help bolster the community spirit and allow staff and students to work in an updated space. Help OUSD by supporting our application to get state money to pay for the repairs and upgrades. This can save OUSD millions of dollars and get the building fixed!!!

    My question is whether repairs will be done only on the Cox side or also for Reach? How do these agreements work so the district isn't losing money? It seems to me the charters have so much more money than OUSD has to spend on high salaries for their administrators plus money to send delegations to DC to lobby against reasonable charter regulations, funded by private entities.

    I am a parent / summer employee at Cox Academy. We have a lot of building repairs, including our heating and roofing, that need to be done as they are negatively affecting students, staff and our learning. I attended this school when it was E.Morris Cox Elementary back in the 90's and the building is in the exact same conditions and it is not fair that I can relate with my kids about the building conditions. It is important that students and staff have a better environment for learning and staff for working. Repairs are desperately needed for the school. Please help improve our school's environment. Environment conditions play a big role in a child's development.

    As a staff member working with Cox Academy, I know how vital Cox Academy is to the Elmhurst community. Until significant repairs (especially to the heating and roofing) are implemented, students and staff will experience adverse effects. Please help OUSD by supporting our application to get state money to pay for the repairs and upgrades. Your support can save OUSD millions of dollars and get the building fixed!
