Trustees approved the consent agenda, two new Serrano CTE courses (ag construction/utilities capstone and sports medicine/therapeutic services), a county preschool MOU, a Solution Tree contract for PLC training, stormwater compliance contracts for modernization projects, a ProCare Therapy agreement for speech services, and adopted a resolution of intent to pursue a CalPERS contract for local safety members.
At its regularly scheduled meeting the Snowline Joint Unified School District Board of Trustees approved a slate of consent and contract items and took a preliminary step on a retirement contract for safety staff.
Key approvals

- Resolution of intent (Res. No. 26-1765): trustees adopted a resolution to begin the multi-step process to enter a CalPERS retirement contract for local safety (police) members; the resolution of intent begins a required review and will return for member vote and final board action.
