Summary

Staff told trustees Creekside lost eligibility for the equity multiplier after state CALPADS calculations; the district must spend carryover dollars (about $20,000) on remaining actions tied to Creekside.

Superintendent Christina Sutter informed the board that Creekside Elementary no longer meets state thresholds for the equity multiplier following the state's recalculation using CALPADS; as a result, the district must continue to spend previously allocated funds until the carryover is exhausted. "We were just that money was based on last year's eligibility ... the state did their calculations based on CALPADS, and they determined that we were no longer eligible," Sutter said.

Sutter said the district will continue one action at Creekside to spend down the remaining allocation; she estimated approximately $20,000 remains to be used. Board members asked follow‑up procedural questions about whether the funds remain available and how the carryover actions will be tracked; Sutter said staff will ensure the remaining dollars are applied to the designated Creekside actions and reported back to the board.
