Summary
At its June 4 meeting the board approved K'12 social studies materials, TeachTown Encore for students with moderate and severe disabilities, Campbell Biology for grades 9'12, multiple contracts including work at James Logan High School and the corporation yard, an MOU with Alameda County Office of Education, and the consent agenda (items 14.1'14.26). All actions passed by unanimous voice vote.
The New Haven Unified School District board approved a series of instructional-material adoptions and contracts at its June 4 meeting. Each motion was moved, seconded and passed by voice vote without noted opposition.
Approved items included:
- Adoption of Social Studies Alive K'12 instructional materials for 2024'25. - Adoption of TeachTown Encore (K'5) curriculum for students with moderate and severe disabilities for 2024'25. - Adoption of Campbell Biology (grades 9'12) instructional materials for 2024'25. - Approval of a contract with Prisms for James Logan High School (2024'25 school year work as described in the agenda). - Approval of a memorandum of understanding with the Alameda County Office of Education, June 2024 through June 2026. - Approval of a contract with RK and Associates (dba Escon Builders) for roof repairs and painting at the district corporation yard. - Approval of consent agenda items 14.1 through 14.26 with no items pulled for separate vote.
Each motion was announced, discussed briefly when applicable, and approved; the board president called for voices in favor and noted each item passed as recorded on the meeting record.
Why it matters: instructional-material adoptions and facilities contracts determine classroom resources and ongoing maintenance; the MOU with the county office formalizes interagency coordination through mid-2026. The consent agenda bundled routine items the board approved in a single vote.
Next steps: staff will execute approved contracts and proceed with implementation as described in agenda materials.
