Summary

Trustees approved recommended alternative education programs for 2026–27 and a resolution transferring budget appropriations to correct categorizations; administration said the transfers offset special revenue and general fund categories with no net spending change.

Executive Director of Human Resources Carla Gay presented recommended alternative education programs that the district may contract with when student needs require them; staff emphasized these programs are available based on student need rather than by parent request. The board approved the recommended list of programs for 2026–27 (Motion 93) unanimously.

Finance director Pete Bejarano explained appropriation transfers were needed because some transactions had been categorized in funds different from the adopted budget. The proposed transfers offset general fund appropriations with special revenue fund corrections and the net spending effect across all funds is zero. The board approved Resolution 2026-11 to transfer budget appropriations (Motion 94) unanimously. Administration noted the transfers are corrective bookkeeping to reflect actual spending categories rather than new spending authority.
