2026–27 Rates and Fees
Under new business, the board is scheduled to consider rates and fees for the 2026–27 year. The packet excerpt does not identify the individual rates, fee categories, or proposed amounts.
Payroll Practices and Policies
The agenda includes consideration of payroll practices and policies. No proposed policy language, specific changes, or financial effects are detailed in the packet excerpt.
Operating Referendum Election Resolution
The board is scheduled to consider a Resolution Calling for Election on Operating Referendum. The packet excerpt identifies the resolution as a new-business item but does not provide the proposed referendum amount, tax impact, election date, ballot language, or other terms.
Superintendent Evaluation
A superintendent evaluation is also listed under new business. The packet excerpt provides no additional information about the evaluation process or any proposed action associated with the item.
Reports and Board Updates
The agenda provides for committee reports and reports from the Activities Director/Community Education, principal, and superintendent. No substantive report details are included in the packet excerpt.
The agenda states there is nothing to report or discuss under other old or unfinished business.
Public Participation

What to Watch at the Meeting
The operating referendum resolution is one of the most consequential items identified in the agenda because it concerns calling an election, although the packet excerpt does not provide the referendum's substantive terms.
