- Hiring incentives for 2025–26: the board voted to continue district hiring incentives for the 2025–26 school year using district funds where necessary. Staff reported that some incentive payments already paid were funded from grants this year and that the second‑year payments will require district budget allocations. The board approved continuation of incentives and directed staff to report budget impacts; vote recorded as unanimous.

Notes and next steps: for items approving ongoing expenditures (continuing hiring incentives) trustees asked staff to return with budgeted dollar amounts and the expected fiscal impact for the 2025–26 budget process. For scholarship, investment and consent items staff were directed to complete routine implementation steps.
