Board approves consent agenda, ratifies payroll and adopts three recognition resolutions
Summary
The Monrovia Unified School District board approved the consent agenda, ratified payroll and purchase orders, renewed several contracts and adopted three short-term resolutions recognizing Administrative Professionals Week, Teacher Appreciation Month and School Nurse Day.
The Monrovia Unified School District Board of Education on April 16 approved its consent agenda, ratified financial items and adopted three recognition resolutions.
Items approved on the consent agenda included a special education settlement valued at a little over $19,000 that provides academic remediation, counseling and legal services; a contract renewal with Language Testing International to assess students in Mandarin and Spanish dual-immersion programs; and ratification of purchase orders totaling $2,500,000, warrants of $1,980,000 and payroll exceeding $4,200,000 for March 2025. The board also approved updates to the district’s transitional kindergarten policy to align with California education guidance and received the Williams uniform complaint quarterly report.
In action items the board approved a summer partnership with the Boys and Girls Club of the Foothills to provide enrichment programming at Shamrock for students not enrolled in traditional summer school, and designated Monrovia Community Adult School as an affiliate for the East San Gabriel Valley America’s Job Center to expand access to workforce training and WIOA services.
The board adopted three agenda resolutions recognizing staff and school professionals: a resolution recognizing April 20–26, 2025, as Administrative Professionals Week; a resolution declaring May 2025 as National Teacher Appreciation Month; and a resolution acknowledging May 7, 2025, as National School Nurse Day. The meeting recap did not provide resolution numbers or individual vote tallies for those measures.
The board approved personnel report No. 14, which listed certified and classified appointments, retirements and contract renewals, and accepted travel and conference reports emphasizing leadership development for site administrators. Trustees praised the efficiency of the consent process and emphasized the importance of posting underlying documents to the board portal for public review.
