Board receives CSEA sunshine proposal, approves expulsions and routine personnel and budget items
Summary
Trustees received the district's initial sunshine contract proposals to CSEA Chapter 183, approved several closed‑session discipline recommendations, accepted personnel and fiscal reports, and authorized a $5,000 sponsorship for San Bernardino Valley College Foundation's 100th anniversary gala.
At its public meeting, the San Bernardino City Unified School District board took several formal actions reported on the record.
The board received the district's initial sunshine contract proposals to the California School Employees Association Chapter 183, opening formal negotiations on several contract articles including wages, retiree health, employee evaluation, transfer, leaves and grievance procedures. The public hearing was opened and closed with no public comment and the receipt was approved by motion.
Closed‑session actions: On return from closed session trustees recorded several discipline and placement decisions. The board accepted hearing panel recommendations ordering expulsions, approved suspensions or referrals to youth court in specified cases, authorized readmissions for some students, and approved petitions to expunge or modify records where legally appropriate. The board moved and carried each item by recorded motion; confidential student identifiers were handled under Education Code procedures.
Personnel and fiscal items: The board approved the personnel report, the 2025–26 Consolidated Application (CARS) submission, transfer appropriations for the 2025–26 fiscal year, and the consent calendar. Motions were made and seconded and recorded as carrying.
Sponsorship: Trustees approved a $5,000 sponsorship to the San Bernardino Valley College Foundation for its 100th‑anniversary gala; the district will process sponsorship payment and reserve the event table included in the package.
What this means: The sunshine receipt starts the formal bargaining process with CSEA. The discipline actions reflect adjudication happening in closed session with statutorily required public reporting. The personnel and budget items are routine but required votes that keep district operations on schedule.
