Yucaipa‑Calimesa board approves series of contracts, policies and fiscal items
Summary
The board approved purchases (musical instruments, technology), agreements (AB104 subgrantee, crossing guards), consultant and contract ratifications, a special tax for a CFD, multiple credential resolutions and a new policy on concerted action/work stoppage; consent calendars also passed.
The Yucaipa‑Calimesa Joint Unified School District board moved through a packed agenda and approved a series of routine but consequential items, including equipment purchases, service agreements, contract adjustments and policy adoptions.
Key approvals included a purchase of musical instruments for Competitive Edge Charter Academy from Nick Rail Music; a subgrantee agreement with San Bernardino Community College District for the AB 104 adult education program; Board Policy 3515.31 on school resource officers; a crossing‑guard service agreement for 2025–26 with the City of Ukayba; a technology equipment purchase from CDW; ratification of a contract amendment with School Innovations and Achievement; a resolution establishing the annual special tax for Community Facilities District No. 1 for fiscal year 2025–26; a revised facilities fee schedule; a consultant agreement with Vanessa Silver of Silver Lining Educational Services; and several credential‑authorization resolutions for teachers to serve outside the specific area listed on their credential in accordance with cited education code.
The board also approved a new board policy addressing concerted action and work stoppage and adopted the consent calendars (items 5.01–5.03 and 8.01–8.17) by voice vote. Motions were routinely seconded on the dais; the clerk recorded voice approvals rather than detailed roll‑call tallies in the transcript.
