The Coronado Unified School District Governing Board recorded the following votes and formal outcomes at its June meeting. Several items were brief with limited debate and were approved by the board; two items (the 2025'26 budget and a companion spending resolution) were discussed at length and are covered in a separate report.
Votes at a glance (motion outcomes as taken in open session): - Item 6.2 — Instructional materials adoption (textbook/instructional materials): Motion to approve adoption passed. Staff noted materials had been available for public review; this completes the district's instructional-materials adoption process. - Item 6.3 — Adopt resolution regarding the Education Protection Account (EPA): Motion to adopt resolution 2025-0606 (EPA expenditure estimate) passed. Deputy Superintendent Salamanca described it as an annual statutory requirement to estimate EPA expenditures. - Item 6.4 — Approve 2025–26 Budget Overview for Parents and Local Control Accountability Plan (LCAP): Motion to approve passed; staff said the LCAP and budget documents were reviewed by the public at a hearing earlier in June. - Item 6.5 — Approve the 2025–26 annual budget: Motion to approve passed after presentation and discussion (see separate budget report). - Item 6.6 — Adopt business-services spending resolution committing district to reductions/revenue enhancements: Motion to approve passed after amendment to specify "approximately $2,000,000, as necessary to meet the 3% mandated reserve." The board directed staff to produce detailed line-item reductions or revenue options by the first-interim report. - Item 6.7 — Declare former ECDC property at 199 Sixth Street exempt surplus and approve a six-month lease extension with the Navy: Motion to approve passed. Trustees said negotiations continue on a longer-term lease and the six-month extension will bridge to a future agreement. - Item 6.8 — Approve amendment to deputy superintendent employment contract: Motion to approve passed. The amendment extends the deputy superintendent's term through 06/30/2029 and provides a 2.5% salary increase (to $233,020) contingent on a satisfactory evaluation; the 2.5% increase is deferred until 07/01/2027 or upon separation, whichever is sooner. - Item 6.9 — Approve amendment to superintendent employment contract: Motion to approve passed. The amendment extends the superintendent's term through 06/30/2029 and provides a 2.5% salary increase (to $270,000.58) contingent on a satisfactory evaluation; the 2.5% increase is deferred until 07/01/2027 or upon separation, whichever is sooner. - Item 6.11 — Adopt board policy 5112.5 (open/closed campus) for Coronado High School: Motion to approve passed. Principal Molina (not present) asked staff to note CHS will retain freshmen on campus for the first two weeks of instruction with planned activities to build connections; trustees said the policy includes flexibility for site administration to calibrate implementation.
Pulled items and scheduling notes: - Item 6.1 (approval of early reading difficulty screener, MCLASS/DIBELS) was pulled from tonight's agenda and will be scheduled for a special board meeting later in the summer, along with agenda item 8.1 (board self-evaluation and board policies discussion).
Context and next steps: For items requiring further implementation steps (notably 6.5/6.6), staff will present unaudited actuals in September and a detailed reductions/revenue plan for the first-interim report. The board approved routine items and several personnel contract amendments, while preserving flexibility in the business-services resolution to meet the county office-mandated reserve target.
