The Clovis Unified School District Governing Board on March 18 approved the district’s Second Interim Financial Report and adopted a Positive Certification indicating the district will be able to meet its financial obligations for the remainder of the 2025–26 school year, as required by Assembly Bill 1200.
The board voted 6–0 to adopt the certification (Board Member Tom Hashimoto moved; Board Member Deena Combs-Flores seconded). The motion record shows Board Member Steven Fogg was absent.
At the same meeting the board authorized the superintendent or designee to enter a financing agreement with Bank of America to fund an employee computer refresh program for 2026–27. That authorization also passed on a 6–0 vote.
Why it matters: A Positive Certification under AB 1200 indicates district staff judged available resources sufficient to meet obligations through the current fiscal year; the board’s action allows the district to proceed with planned technology replacements for staff without delaying procurement while preserving compliance obligations.
