NVUSD board approves policy updates, contracts and memoranda in routine meeting
Summary
The Napa Valley Unified School District board unanimously approved a slate of policy updates, contracts and memoranda of understanding — including CSBA policy recommendations, construction change orders, and partnerships with CSU Sacramento and Napa Valley Community College District — after amending the agenda to remove a CAASPP presentation due to a state embargo.
The Napa Valley Unified School District Board of Education on the evening amended its agenda to remove a scheduled presentation of 2025 CAASPP/CASP results, citing a state embargo, then proceeded to approve a series of routine policy updates, contracts and memoranda.
Trustee Chu moved to approve the amended agenda and Trustee Hart seconded. The board recorded roll call votes and the motion passed. The board then adopted the California School Boards Association (CSBA) recommended policy updates for June 2025 and a subsequent set of special policy updates for August 2025 after motions moved by Trustee Chu and seconded by Trustee Hart.
The board also approved business and operational items including an AB1200/2756 financial memorandum, a Proposition 28 arts report, an Eaton UPS service contract for the district data center, and multiple facilities contracts and change orders (including Resolution 2606 authorizing a change order for Atlas Peak Construction and a resurfacing contract with American Asphalt Repair and Resurfacing Company). Human-resources items approved included a memorandum of understanding on formula compensation for 2025–26 and amendments to executive employee agreements.
Instructional and partnership items cleared on the consent and action calendars as well: the board adopted Resolution 26-05 certifying compliance with Education Code sections 60119 and 60422, and ratified memoranda of understanding with the Napa Valley Farmworker Foundation, California State University Sacramento, and the Napa Valley Community College District.
Most motions were moved by Trustee Chu and seconded by Trustee Hart; the minutes record roll-call votes recorded as affirmative (‘I’) for the student board member and trustees in the roll‑call tallies appearing in the record. Where the record notes public comment, staff said there was no public comment on the listed action items.
The actions are procedural and primarily implement existing programs, contracts and policy updates; the board did not take new controversial or novel policy positions during the meeting. The meeting adjourned following informational committee reports and brief trustee comments.
