Board ratifies SELPA MOU, approves unaudited actuals and recognizes Hispanic Heritage Month

At its September meetings, the Monrovia Unified School District board ratified administrative agreements and adopted routine fiscal items, including a resolution recognizing Hispanic Heritage Month.

Key actions: The board ratified a memorandum of understanding (MOU) for the West San Gabriel Valley SELPA teacher residency program and approved the district’s unaudited actuals financial reports for the 2024–25 fiscal year covering revenues and expenditures across district funds. Separately, the board passed a resolution recognizing dates in September and October for Hispanic Heritage Month; the transcript indicates the resolution was passed during the Sept. 10 meeting.

Proposition 28 public hearing: The board also held a public hearing on Proposition 28 funds, the state program for arts and creative education funding; the recap described the hearing but did not include details of specific allocations or board action on Prop 28 at the meeting.

What the actions mean: The SELPA MOU supports a teacher residency program intended to serve students with special needs through a consortium of local districts. The unaudited actuals approval is a routine fiscal action that allows administrators to close the prior fiscal year’s books while auditors complete final reports.

Details not recorded: The transcript recap did not include motion language, mover/second names or a roll-call vote tally for these items. Where the meeting recorder provided no specifics, the article marks those fields as not specified.
