Casa Grande Union board adopts FY26 M&O budget, approves contracts and ASBA policy updates
Summary
The Casa Grande Union High School District board on July 14 adopted its fiscal year 2026 M&O expenditure budget using preliminary state forms, approved ASBA policy advisory updates and several vendor/partner agreements, and authorized routine contracts and donations.
The Casa Grande Union High School District board adopted its fiscal year 2026 maintenance and operations (M&O) expenditure budget on July 14, 2025, and approved multiple policy updates and vendor agreements during a regularly scheduled meeting.
Veronica Price, who presented the budget on behalf of district staff, told the board the district used preliminary state budget forms released July 1 so the adopted documents will match what is uploaded to the Arizona Auditor General. "These are estimated figures and will not be finalized until our carryover amounts for fiscal year 25 have been finalized," Price said, and she noted the district will perform a September revision after carryover figures are settled. The public hearing drew no speakers and the board moved from hearing to adoption on a motion and vote.
The board also approved second readings and adoptions of ASBA policy advisories 876–905 and 906–908 as presented.
On procurement and interdistrict agreements, the board approved awarding the district's digital supplemental instruction and credit-recovery platform RFP to Subject Technologies Inc., following staff recommendation that the vendor received the highest score among four bidders. The board approved a direct services agreement with Vail Unified School District to provide staff training and support for data capture and reporting, and approved a data‑sharing agreement with Stanfield Elementary School District to allow the district to receive student assessment and progress information for transition and intervention purposes.
The board also approved a school‑meals agreement with Southwest Education Center (a school serving students with special needs). At the meeting the contract amount was stated as $108,108,000; that figure was recorded from the meeting transcript and has not been independently verified by the board report.
Members accepted a $250 donation from Gary Buckner of Arcadian Insurance Agency for the district spirit line and approved the consent agenda, which bundled routine items for one-motion approval.
Actions taken at the meeting were procedural and routine; the budget adoption uses preliminary state forms and is expected to be adjusted in September when FY25 carryover amounts are finalized.
