Following the June 10 public hearing, the Board will now consider adoption of the 2025–26 All Funds Budget. The proposed budget has been publicly available and is posted on the District website.

The budget was developed using the Governor’s May Revision, guidance from the Orange County Department of Education, and reflects the District’s Community Funded status for 2025–26.

In accordance with state law, any significant updates required after the state budget is finalized will be made within 45 days.

To provide consistent support in school libraries and health offices, the District will increase the hours of Library-Media Technicians from 30 to 40 hours per week and Health Clerks from 20 to 27.5 hours per week, starting in the 2025–26 school year.

This adjustment, outlined in a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with CSEA Chapter 316, supports staff retention and recruitment. This update was included in the 2025–26 budget and does not impact the general fund.

The Board will consider approval of the 2025–26 strategic priority goals, which align with the District’s five-year strategic plan adopted in 2022. These goals reflect continued focus in key areas and incorporate Board feedback from the June 10 meeting.

There is no fiscal impact associated with adopting the goals. Any related expenditures will be brought forward separately for approval as needed.
