Summary

Staff presented the district's Education Protection Account (EPA) expenditure plan (~$80,492) and trustees approved Resolution 25‑4; board discussed whether EPA funds could be used to expand intervention but noted restrictions and interplay with other funding sources.

The board reviewed the Education Protection Account (EPA) expenditure plan for 2024–25, which allocates the district's LCFF‑related EPA allocation (about $80,492) to certificated instruction. Staff explained EPA funds are part of LCFF funding and typically used to fund certificated positions or instruction‑related costs.

Trustees asked whether EPA dollars could be targeted for math or reading intervention; staff said EPA is part of the general LCFF shell and that targeted intervention would likely require shifting other funds or using grant sources (learning recovery/ESSER) that are restricted by program rules. The board moved and approved Resolution 25‑4 adopting the expenditure plan.
