Summary
The Pacific Grove Unified School District board adopted the March 26 agenda and approved consent items 4-0, including an out-of-county Disneyland field trip that prompted trustee questions about a private driver and late schedule; closed session produced no formal action.
The Pacific Grove Unified School District board adopted its special meeting agenda and approved the consent calendar, including an added out‑of‑county activity, at its March 26 special meeting.
After staff noted an expedited out-of-county activity under tab W—a Disneyland trip scheduled for April 7—trustees asked questions about logistics. Staff said driver Sean Keller had volunteered to use his personal car to transport six students rather than hire an additional charter bus to accommodate students on a waitlist. Trustees asked for clarity about pickup and return times, expressing concern about a one‑person driving arrangement when the itinerary includes an early departure and a late return.
The board voted on two formal motions: to adopt the agenda as presented, and to approve the consent items. Both motions passed 4-0. The chair announced there would be a closed session to discuss collective bargaining with PGTA and CSCA for 2025–26, public employee discipline under Government Code §54957(b) and a midyear superintendent goals check in. When the board returned to open session, it reported no action on the bargaining or discipline items and said it received information only on the superintendent goals.
