Summary
At its May meeting the Yuma Union High School District board unanimously approved a 2024–25 budget revision, athletic fee increases, a 2025–26 employee compensation packet and an IGA on FAFSA outreach; the board also accepted $61,774.71 in donations for the month ($418,989.92 year‑to‑date).
The Yuma Union High School District Governing Board unanimously approved several routine but consequential items at its May regular meeting, including a budget revision for the 2024–25 fiscal year, increases to athletic participation and gate fees, a revised employee compensation packet for 2025–26 and an intergovernmental agreement tied to FAFSA outreach and recognition.
Board member Carlos moved to approve the budget revision for 2024–25, and Christie seconded; the motion carried unanimously. According to district finance materials presented at the meeting, the district’s maintenance-and-operations budget for FY25 is listed at $109,027,008 with roughly $59,932,650 spent to date (about 55 percent). The district’s capital budget and student activities fund totals were also discussed in the monthly update.
The board also approved proposed athletic participation, student ID and gate fee increases as presented in the board book; the motion passed on a unanimous vote. Board members said the increases respond to rising program costs reported by athletic directors.
The board approved the revised 2025–26 employee compensation packet after a motion and second; staff were available at the meeting to answer questions about the packet.
