Board approves routine consent and personnel items, including two-year community appointment and NAEF board additions
Summary
The Natomas Charter School Board approved the meeting agenda, consent items, a two-year term for community member Arsenio Mataka, appointments of Alicia Hernandez and Emma Flood to the Natomas Arts Education Foundation board, the 2026–27 and 2027–28 school calendars, and updated technology job descriptions in roll-call votes.
The Natomas Charter School Board on its November agenda approved a slate of routine and personnel actions, including a two-year community representative term for Arsenio Mataka and two appointments to the Natomas Arts Education Foundation board.
The board first approved the meeting agenda by roll call after a motion and second. It then approved consent items during the consent portion of the meeting. During the action items the board voted to approve a two-year term for community member Arsenio Mataka; later, members approved the appointments of Alicia Hernandez and Emma Flood to the Natomas Arts Education Foundation board after those candidates were interviewed by the NAEP board and NAEP director Sarah Winter.
Administrators also presented and the board approved the district’s proposed school calendars for the 2026–27 and 2027–28 school years. Staff explained a Veterans Day scheduling difference between the calendars and that community survey feedback favored retaining the current structure.
Finally, the board voted to update classified technology job descriptions and titles — creating Technology Systems Specialist levels 1–3 and renaming the IT manager role to Technology Systems Manager to reflect expanded systems and cybersecurity responsibilities.
