X. CELEBRATIONS
X.a. Certificate of Appreciation to Anthem United Homes
Quick Summary / Abstract:
Jim Sanders, Director of Communications
Rationale:
Anthem United Homes donated 150 backpacks -- containing glue sticks, pencils, notebooks and other school supplies -- to benefit NUSD students of all ages as the 2018-19 year began. This marked the second time Anthem United has stepped up bigtime for our schools. Last year, the building firm donated 75 backpacks. Anthem United is the creator of the "Willow at Natomas Meadows" subdivision in North Natomas.
 
X.b. National Hispanic History Month
Quick Summary / Abstract:
Jim Sanders, Director of Communications
Rationale:
National Hispanic Heritage Month celebrates the histories, cultures, and contributions of American citizens whose ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Central and South America. Though it extends the equivalent of an entire month, it does not begin until Sept. 15. It ends Oct. 15. Why? It kicks off on the anniversary of independence for five Latin American countries - Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua. Mexico's independence day is one day later, Sept. 16, and Chile celebrates its independence Sept. 18. National Hispanic Heritage Month is honored throughout the country but has special significance in Natomas because nearly one of every three students here is Hispanic.

    Proposition 4, the “Gann Amendment” adopted in 1979, provides that government spending may grow no faster than the growth in population and inflation. All public agencies within the State of California are subject to this limitation. Each year, school district governing boards must adopt a resolution identifying their estimated appropriations limit (“Gann Limit”) for the current year which is based on the current year budget, and the recalculated actual appropriations limit for the prior year (based on prior year final actuals).  The Gann Limit is an equation to calculate the maximum amount the state can spend in a given fiscal year.  The computation of Appropriation Limit and Appropriations subject to the Limit (Gann Limit Calculation) is attached.
