Board recognizes Granite Bay High leadership students; community groups report on bargaining and fundraising
Summary
Trustees thanked Granite Bay High leadership students volunteering at Oak Hills Elementary; a representative of the classified union and the Eureka Schools Foundation reported to the board on bargaining and fundraising activity.
The board began by recognizing Granite Bay High School leadership students who volunteered at Oak Hills Elementary two days a week. Oak Hills staff and visiting students described strong bonds formed through classroom support, playground help and reading activities; the district presented certificates to three students.
During public reports, a representative of United Classified Association (UCA) Chapter 654 thanked the board and cabinet for the opportunity to bargain a contract and said the chapter represents more than 145 classified employees who provide transportation, health‑room care and front‑office services. The speaker asked for an open, transparent bargaining process to support classified staff and the district’s students.
Jessica (last name not specified) from the Eureka Schools Foundation reported the foundation’s fundraising is up by about $65,000 compared with the previous year through gala and fun‑run proceeds and sponsorships. She described ongoing donor database (CRM) implementation and upcoming events including a speakeasy soiree and a rebranded Founders Cup golf tournament; the foundation is tracking 2025–26 grant spending and preparing communications to clarify which enrichment activities it funds.
Board members thanked the students, UCA representatives and foundation volunteers for their service to district schools. The reports were informational; no board action was taken during these items.
