Elma School District board approves routine items and reviews enrollment and budget reports
Summary
The board approved routine motions including excusing a member, minutes, agenda, consent items and a Class of 2031 fundraiser; staff reported enrollment figures (1,499.80 average; net 1,578.46) and a budget dip tied to retiree cash-outs ahead of a July 22 budget hearing.
During the meeting the board approved several routine items by voice vote: excusing board member Gonzales, approving the June 10, 2026 minutes, adopting the meeting agenda, approving the consent agenda and approving the Class of 2031 booster fundraisers. Individual movers and seconders were recorded as motions and seconds in the meeting, but no roll-call tallies were provided in the transcript.
Staff presented the enrollment report, noting "we stayed pretty consistent through the year of 1,499.80, which includes ALE," and reporting a net total student enrollment of 1,578.46 after accounting for Running Start, transitional kindergarten and open-door students (Enrollment staff). Board members asked clarifying questions about fractional averages and how recent calculation changes affect per-student averages.
The budget report noted an approximate $500,000 decrease month-to-month driven in part by retiree cash-outs in June; staff said the budget hearing is scheduled for July 22 and that further action would be rolled into the budget process. Members confirmed the July 2 deadline associated with budget paperwork and the need for quorum at the hearing (Budget staff).
The meeting closed with standard facilities and community-program updates, a plan to move into a 40-minute executive session on public-employee evaluation and bargaining (no action to be taken), and an adjournment by voice vote.
