Doctor Hernandez, deputy superintendent for educational services, summarized Arizona Revised Statute 15‑841 and the district’s “majors/minors” guidance, explaining that teachers may remove a pupil from class under two specific statutory conditions and should document classroom interventions before escalating to administrators. Hernandez walked the board through a non‑real example used for training that showed a teacher documenting repeated minor incidents, parental contact and subsequent administrative response after an incident coded as major.

Hernandez described safeguards the district has put in place: annual training for staff and principals (with refreshers as needed), executive‑director review of discipline entries and an emphasis this year on ensuring parent contact when incidents are recorded.

A public commenter who identified himself as Devin Moser said the Peoria Education Association polled more than 150 educators and concluded 94% prefer the current Synergy documentation model. Moser argued a return to handwritten referral slips would be inefficient and would reduce the district’s ability to detect behavioral patterns across classes or grades.

\"A policy requiring teachers to revert back to a written documentation isn't in the best interest of our students,\" Moser told the board.

Board members asked detailed implementation questions. Mrs. Ewing asked whether the system prompts staff to contact parents when entries are made; Hernandez said parent contact was a training emphasis this year and that the district expects such contact. Board members asked whether minor‑incident entries can be searched to identify students who are repeatedly the recipient of other students’ conduct; Hernandez said those relationships are recorded but are not surfaced in the same searchable discipline profile in the way some members expected.

Members also raised questions about record retention, data access and redress. The board discussed federal and state rights of parents to request and review student records; Hernandez confirmed parents have access to maintained records under Arizona law and federal rules. Members asked about modification or removal of entries; Hernandez said the district follows applicable procedures (including the federal Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act) and the board’s current policy for amendment of records.

Several trustees urged more clarity about how schools will ensure the parent contact is meaningful (for example, phone calls rather than automated mailings) and asked staff for a demonstration of the Synergy entry screen at a future meeting so the board and public can see exactly what teachers see when they log incidents.

No policy was adopted at the meeting. Trustees requested follow‑up materials: a demonstration of the Synergy incident workflow, documentation on parental notification (including whether Synergy can auto‑send alerts by text or email), confirmation about retention and destruction of discipline entries under state archival rules, and a review of how discipline entries trigger supports for teachers (for example, whether administrators receive alerts when a single teacher logs many incidents). Hernandez and executive directors committed to preparing follow‑up information and training refreshers.

The discussion reflected a tension between two goals: (1) giving teachers an efficient way to document classroom supports and recurring behavior patterns so schools and families can act early, and (2) protecting students from overlabeling and ensuring entries are factual, contextualized and subject to review.

Timeline and next steps: administrators will provide a Synergy screen walkthrough and a written summary of notification and retention practices for the board; staff said they will include how entries inform district review of “what’s getting in the way of learning.”","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Peoria Unified Governing Board Meeting (July 23, 2025)","oneSentenceSummary","District administrators reviewed how teachers and administrators document classroom behavior in the Synergy student information system and said training will emphasize parent contact and factual documentation.","taxTitle","Peoria Unified School District (4237), School Districts, Arizona","taxId",13602,"location","Arizona","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6505011,"Peoria Unified adopts revised strategic framework, sets KPIs and baseline targets",3433,9253000,12686000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5462611-2d8a057e8dd78bdcd6d9b0cb8925009c&start=9253&end=12686","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5462611-2d8a057e8dd78bdcd6d9b0cb8925009c/thumbnail_9253000.jpg","/articles/6505011/Arizona/Peoria-Unified-adopts-revised-strategic-framework-sets-KPIs-and-baseline-targets","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6505011-ae6928cd275bac4902522bc85c1bc9d3/orig.mp4?Expires=1770902922&Signature=eBuL8sUxOQ-BTD~4OLuqsI9Cb3PDbjA7MJWT77JGMhjE7FmyHrRyY8QGiqQ6sqs1tMg~09lKWFK~rG1DwnhtIzb4F7sVN054ykIwAbYhpHR4OyRrdLcy8zKoSirsKdMLZ07Jd3vkn9dPqrXoNvnTmYRRa8bR-oqv9mBZnEqJDQxIYxMIsW1nWCw-HJPt27iE1JG5UQcA9NPRcB0djP4qykK~hd9xkmGXgURfbcgvdm0xAwKV~0TusZFih7KShDaENwGqRk7OGGvYfxx205zkGdN1D1Y-MSvAZ17OdqwXWctlqZmaPfWiX6wPakpGBopS1fqgNzklkiQaBrKXjKfdxw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Peoria Unified School District governing board on Tuesday approved a revised strategic framework and set of key performance indicators the district will use as a baseline for 2025–26, including a districtwide target of a 3% increase in proficiency across English language arts, math and science. The motion to adopt the framework passed by voice vote with five board members voting yes.

Superintendent Dr. Summers presented the framework as the conclusion of “phase 1,” saying it clarifies priorities and how the district will hold itself accountable. “This is more than a framework. It's a commitment, a commitment to lead with clarity, purpose, and impact, and a shared opportunity to lead together with excellence,” Dr. Summers told the board during the presentation.

The plan centers on a single North Star—every student’s success—and names four supporting priorities: learning and teaching (new this year), safety and wellness, stewardship of resources, and parent and community partnerships. Key measurable targets the district listed include a 3% increase in proficiency across core subjects; a 3% increase in proficiency for English learners and students with special needs; maintaining or improving the college and career readiness (CCR) index above 19.9; sustaining a graduation rate above 94%; increasing the share of graduates earning an industry-recognized CTE certification or six-plus dual‑enrollment credits; a staff-satisfaction target of 90% on relevance of professional learning; and student safety and support reported by students at a target of 80%.

Board members pressed for detail on how the metrics will be monitored and how often. Doctor Hernandez, deputy superintendent for educational services, said the district will use interim assessments such as STAR for progress monitoring and expects reporting cycles every six to 10 weeks so the district can “pivot with our interventions” if data show a need to change course. Hernandez also said the administration will present a deeper literacy-focused update at the August 14 meeting.

Board members suggested refinements to how some measures are expressed. Member Mrs. Ewing asked for more clarity about why 3% was chosen; Summers said the target is a pragmatic baseline for the coming year and a starting point for stretch goals in subsequent years. Member Mrs. Proudfit recommended emphasizing parent engagement in the label (she suggested “parent and community engagement”) and urged use of high‑quality survey instruments or third‑party vendors to ensure survey questions yield actionable information.

Members also discussed whether measures for student behavior or classroom disruption should be added to the framework. Dr. Summers said leadership had debated adding a districtwide KPI for behavior disruptions but deferred the decision so the board could consider whether to include such a measure in a later version of the plan.

The board voted on item 7.1, “Strategic framework key performance indicators.” Mrs. Proudfit moved to approve; Mrs. Bowles seconded. The recorded voice vote: Mrs. Bowles — yes; Mrs. Ewing — yes; President Rooks — yes; Mrs. Proudfit — yes; Clerk Toby — yes. Motion passes 5 yeas.

What happens next: Summers said 2025–26 will serve as the baseline year. The district will implement the framework across schools and departments, engage stakeholders, and bring periodic data reports to the board with the intent of finalizing a full 2026–2030 strategic plan by spring 2026.

Board materials and the presentation listed specific operational KPIs (for example, 100% of campuses completing required drills on time; 100% staff trained in emergency procedures; and targets for funds allocated to instruction and completion of a capital master plan), and Summers and other administrators said staff will bring more detailed baseline budget and program measures to the board in coming months.

Board members and administrators also agreed to continue refining survey timing and methodology so short‑cycle signals (more frequent than an annual survey) are useful for operational decisions and so parents and staff receive clear, timely information.

The vote is the formal action the board took on the framework; no other policy changes were enacted at the meeting.","The Peoria Unified School District governing board approved a revised strategic framework and set baseline key performance indicators for 2025–26, including a districtwide target of a 3% increase in proficiency across ELA, math and science.",{"_33":89,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":90,"_41":91,"_43":92,"_45":93,"_47":94,"_49":95,"_51":96,"_53":97,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":98,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":99,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6504997,"District applied for School Violence Prevention grant; board critiques language about SROs and restorative approaches",19784,19784000,-1,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5462611-2d8a057e8dd78bdcd6d9b0cb8925009c&start=19784&end=0","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5462611-2d8a057e8dd78bdcd6d9b0cb8925009c/thumbnail_19784000.jpg","/articles/6504997/Arizona/District-applied-for-School-Violence-Prevention-grant-board-critiques-language-about-SROs-and-restorative-approaches","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6504997-a5b035c21af9e155247d66b68630cfae/orig.mp4?Expires=1770902922&Signature=TgKG6k5c~K2TypjafQyC3aqQG2eKEz43l1RxjM6QRmXL3OjRbap0nDXMrgPHKVnuxjmXhqOiuJFqbub3-dEAF7tcYpcTmMmemH~qXBczoAgSyRImrgiDtDr2ibcIXseHFOqixDY3~-54gB9eedz8PdSHOpp1Augg46eOmdO9GArEI4v1W7~cE9DAP-RaUZQlPStwB8CkfdFMJPEXcefnuYTVzpkxWHWVEXpWr6sMF2HiQG4kpo5ECC6RGeiPlxu3Ql7o7hTHW23rzZ~TR8yw9BaBKVUlO1Le-dN58kJmmaZfIAl5OTF7qA0cWAjGqjWhySAPfmoxId-HAYWkzdKhqA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Peoria Unified staff informed the governing board that the district submitted a School Violence Prevention Program (SVPP) grant application seeking funds for security cameras, high‑school door access control and handheld metal detectors.

Mr. Merlino (transportation/operations lead) and safety staff said the district accelerated the timeline to meet a June application deadline and used a hired grant writer to consolidate responses to required questions. The administration described the process as collaborative, noting letters of support and input from local police, fire departments and the Arizona Department of Education’s school safety staff. The district emphasized the application was prepared from documentation and procedures in effect during the previous school year.

After the update, several board members raised concerns about language in the grant narrative that they said could be misread by the grant reviewer and the public. Those members said wording in the application that discussed “restorative practices” and drew a distinction between school resource officers (SROs) and law enforcement could be interpreted as minimizing or “criminalizing” routine campus safety partners or reflecting terminology the board did not intend. President Rooks and other trustees said the narrative’s phrasing did not reflect the specific agreements Peoria Unified has with the City of Peoria and the City of Glendale concerning SRO and school liaison roles.

Trustees asked administration whether a remedial step could be taken if the district is awarded the grant — for example, following award with a clarifying memorandum or board statement — and requested follow‑up with the grant manager. Mr. Merlino said the district can inquire with the grant manager if an award is made and will research options for clarifying language.

Board members also asked for transparency about who drafted final narrative sections. Mr. Merlino said the district answered questionnaires prepared by the grant writer; he, Mr. Richards (safety director) and Doctor Walters contributed to answers, the grant writer consolidated the responses and Merlino gave final approval before submission.

No board action was taken on the application at the meeting. Trustees requested a follow‑up briefing if the district is awarded funds and asked administration to explore whether a corrective or clarifying statement could be appended to the award or otherwise recorded so the district’s formal position and its intergovernmental agreements with local law enforcement are clear.

The SVPP grants are competitive and award timelines vary; administration noted that award announcements sometimes come in October or later even though the grant performance period begins in October.","Peoria Unified said it submitted a School Violence Prevention Program grant that requests cameras, upgraded high‑school door access and handheld metal detectors; district leaders said they will follow up if awarded after trustees raised concerns about grant‑narrative language describing restorative approaches and SRO roles.",{"_33":101,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":102,"_41":103,"_43":104,"_45":105,"_47":106,"_49":107,"_51":108,"_53":109,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":110,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":111,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6505001,"District food and nutrition director details meals, participation and upcoming changes from Arizona law",1228,13031000,14259000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5462611-2d8a057e8dd78bdcd6d9b0cb8925009c&start=13031&end=14259","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5462611-2d8a057e8dd78bdcd6d9b0cb8925009c/thumbnail_13031000.jpg","/articles/6505001/Arizona/District-food-and-nutrition-director-details-meals-participation-and-upcoming-changes-from-Arizona-law","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6505001-c8bf5f60380e57f54aec922f53057e5a/orig.mp4?Expires=1770902922&Signature=PlCnvdUlLjm7VWhAuS1XryVQo9bch0w4UqSc4Rj46aC2S8nUL0EFkjjv26daUAVRRwmzWatjpHLfezoDEZn43vZnriIWZMysJ0bDsFGtAq4tPGQQ74ZOIu8jYf0QpZhZFOxg7cSVqqPVj6LH3wYQ4o6h5Teot2Byy2MkGuZhSfPvC5WzdafOIsqlKheagkUpqvG-eXtJ6gEQf0YJ3M~dD~l2VVsqcuMT6XsXYEf4dbFrhf9kF7UOlxYXge~fnzacMmXfl~QqifBQwk855UoxGIT~udh7YoaxJpOKta~ysSXtO0rYhOm7hcbYCFxFbcxxvZ4RFYp3qSzplQopBF44cQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Sandra Shosa, director of Food and Nutrition for Peoria Unified, briefed the governing board on the scope of the district’s meal operations, recent participation gains and program constraints tied to federal nutrition rules and facility infrastructure.

Shosa reported that the district qualifies many sites for the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP); 25 schools were placed on CEP this year, and the district’s free-and‑reduced estimate is about 42–44%. She said CEP and other outreach increased participation roughly 11%, allowing the department to serve around 880,000 breakfasts and more than 3,000,000 lunches last year (her counts also included about 80,000 snacks and 80,000 dinners). Shosa said these figures translate to roughly 24,000 meals served across the district on an average day. The department additionally generated about $280,000 in catering and other outside revenues last year.

Shosa outlined meal‑pattern constraints set by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA)—requirements on grains, meat/meat alternates, fruits and vegetables and nutrient caps on calories, fat and sodium—and said manufacturers and district menu planners work to meet those requirements while preserving taste and variety. For example, elementary students are offered four options daily (two hot entrees, one cold entree and a vegetarian choice), while high schools provide a minimum of 12 options. Shosa described routine taste‑tests, focus groups and manager feedback used to refine menus.

On funding, Shosa said school‑meal reimbursements and USDA Foods make up the bulk of revenue for the program; the district also receives state funds that offset the reduced‑price meal charge for eligible students, a temporary budget agreement she said the district has for the coming year. The food service program returns a significant indirect amount to the district for central costs (Shosa said recent years have been about $1 million; this fiscal year the projection is about $1.2 million).

Shosa also reviewed regulatory changes coming from state legislation. She told the board about Arizona’s HB2164 (commonly referred to in the meeting as “Arizona Healthy Schools” and effective Feb. 2027) that restricts so‑called ultraprocessed products on campus during the school day and affects fundraising, vending and student‑run sales. Vendors and manufacturers are already reformulating some products to comply; Shosa said the biggest impacts will be on vending, student stores, fundraisers and event food, and she urged early outreach to parent and booster groups so they can plan compliant alternatives.

Board members praised the department’s outreach and menu innovation. Member Mrs. Ewing suggested PTOs and parent groups use the district food service rather than outside catering for events; Shosa confirmed the department can provide meals to PTO and community events and encouraged groups to reach out. Mrs. Proudfit and Mrs. Bowles raised ideas about school gardens, microgreens and culturally familiar condiments and suggested experiments and community tie‑ins. Several trustees asked about student allergy accommodations; Shosa described the district’s process for medical documentation and special‑diet plans.

Shosa also described the program’s pricing: current elementary lunch $2.50, high school lunch $2.75; breakfast $1.50 elementary and $1.75 high school. She said the department has kept these prices low while, she said, preserving quality. Shosa closed by inviting board members and community members to taste sample menus and by urging early communication as districts and vendors prepare to implement HB2164.

No board action was taken. The board asked staff to continue outreach to PTOs and to return with any specific implementation items that require board consideration.","Peoria Unified’s food and nutrition director outlined meal program size, participation increases after community eligibility and impacts of upcoming Arizona Healthy Schools legislation; board members praised staff and asked for outreach to parent groups and volunteer engagement.",{"_33":113,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":114,"_41":115,"_43":116,"_45":117,"_47":118,"_49":119,"_51":120,"_53":121,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":122,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":123,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6504992,"Votes at a glance: strategic framework, HR report and cooperative purchasing renewal approved",273,12693000,12966000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5462611-2d8a057e8dd78bdcd6d9b0cb8925009c&start=12693&end=12966","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5462611-2d8a057e8dd78bdcd6d9b0cb8925009c/thumbnail_12693000.jpg","/articles/6504992/Arizona/Votes-at-a-glance-strategic-framework-HR-report-and-cooperative-purchasing-renewal-approved","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6504992-2327bf8ebcfa6fd328fd5d3ec9c65598/orig.mp4?Expires=1770902922&Signature=Qej8hsGLqBnZa042NuzTEisI3hjjnqTNEHCKaS2c-NeOJsnRayLx3BIODiUgAVt67I6s1o~68RQ-GTtTR71N17cEqYRr~W7iXVsDXGf83z1PGN2D1MZb5UkWhhbu7EDYKt-KjNDjkDeTFRqAnjWl44ETY1KCmG2VB04Q2NBCskhEQId2sG9x79GmJPFuxiGTQco4ESvXFg3mH1JI3HeR9CrfFNw7c9vqf0VDAYZzxyBCebAU~AFPu8MZNgIrysJOSSToLLYXrQl2V-O8bDau~fHii21iGWxhJW9YgD7eyn~evDWZoRIhid4txEo6w8-025S1G3Co-tt7xFU7Xle90A__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The board took multiple formal votes during the meeting.
