Superintendent says impounded federal education funds to be released 'from different sources'
Summary
Superintendent Michael West reported that California's State Superintendent is pushing for release of federal education funds that had been impounded; West said the funds "are set to be released but will come from different sources," and he also mentioned a Title IX matter affecting funds and HR training.
Michael West, Superintendent of the Colusa County Office of Education, told the board on July 9 that California State Superintendent Tony Thurmond is advocating for release of federal education funds that had been impounded. "The funds are set to be released but will come from different sources," West said, and he noted the board discussed both the frozen federal funds and a separate California Title IX issue that could affect funding.
West also reported on ongoing HR training and shared a personal anecdote about a grandparent who said Adult Education "changed [a family member's] life for the better," a point West used to highlight program impact. The board did not take an immediate funding action at the meeting; the superintendent's remarks were informational and framed as an update on state-level activity and local training steps.
