Paramount Unified board approves facilities master plan and multiple resolutions, all by unanimous votes
Summary
At its Jan. 21 meeting the board approved a suite of action items — including a facilities master plan, Black History Month resolution, a waiver request to the State Board of Education on bonding limits, an increased federal micro‑purchasing threshold, internship listings, and salary adjustments — each motion carried unanimously (vote tallies recorded as 5‑0).
The Paramount Unified Board of Education voted unanimously on multiple action items during its Jan. 21 meeting. Key approvals included acceptance of the district’s facilities master plan, Superintendent Resolution 25‑57 recognizing Black History Month (February 2026), a board compensation/conversation item for 2025–26, an increase in the salary for the certified athletic trainer position, internship lists for Odyssey STEM Academy, Paramount High School and Paramount Adult School, and several board policy updates.
The board also opened and closed a public hearing and then approved Resolution 25‑56 requesting that the State Board of Education waive the district’s statutory bonding limit. The board approved an increased federal micro‑purchasing threshold and a suite of business‑services board policies. Votes were recorded as unanimous for these items; online and verbal tallies in the transcript reflect aye votes from student board members Rodriguez and Vargas and yes votes from the five governing board members.
Motions were moved and seconded as noted in the record (movers and seconders were identified for many items, though not every single motion had a named mover in the spoken record). The board’s approval of the facilities master plan and the bonding‑limit waiver are the most consequential near‑term actions affecting capital planning and potential access to bond funds.
