The Woodland Hills School District Board of Directors on March 19 approved multiple routine items by roll-call votes, naming Arthur J. Gallagher as the district insurance broker, ratifying two bill lists and granting permission for a student trip to Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam in summer 2026, while tabling action on reimbursement for a superintendent conference until the incoming superintendent is seated.
The actions came as the board moved most items on the agenda by consent, with the initial consent motion passing unanimously, 9-0. Later separate votes approved Arthur J. Gallagher as the district's insurance broker of record (vote announced as 9-0), ratified post-February invoices (16.3) and the March 2025 bill list (16.4) with recorded tallies of 7-2, tabled reimbursement for the PASS/related superintendent conference until the superintendent is present (motion to table passed 8-1), and approved a proposed student trip to Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam for summer 2026 (vote announced as 9-0).
Board members debated the timing and administrative details for the conference reimbursement, with at least one director asking to wait until the incoming superintendent is in place so the board could confirm registration deadlines and whether the superintendent had already registered. The board ultimately tabled that item for a future meeting so it can be revisited after the new superintendent's start date.
Where vote tallies were announced but individual board votes were not read into the public record, the board's certified roll-call result is given as announced at the meeting. The meeting minutes and posted roll-call will contain the official vote record.
