The Fillmore Unified School District board approved submission of the 2025–26 Consolidated Application and Reporting System (ConApp), declaring the district’s intent to apply for state and federal formula categorical funds for the 2025–26 school year.

Staff told the board that Title II (professional development/induction), Title III (English learner and immigrant programs) and Title IV (Student Support and Academic Enrichment) funds were at that time being withheld at the federal-state interface and described this status as a state-level petition to withhold the funds. The district stated that the ConApp must still be submitted to declare intent to apply and that staff is already identifying alternative funding sources if those federal funds are not released.

Staff outlined how the district uses these funds: Title II supports the induction program; Title III funds 1.75 full-time-equivalent positions in English-learner instructional assistance; and Title IV supports the EAOP contract and the Solace security contract. The board approved the ConApp submission by roll-call vote 4–0.
