WOCCISD trustees approve 2025-26 operating budgets, request internal audit and adopt salary schedule
Summary
The board voted unanimously to request an internal financial audit, approve the 2025-26 operating budgets (General, Food Service, Debt Service), and adopt an updated 2025-26 salary schedule. Motions carried on 6-0 votes.
At the June 23 meeting the WEST ORANGE-COVE CISD Board of Trustees approved several fiscal actions. On a motion by Linda Platt-Bryant, seconded by Tommy Wilson Sr., trustees voted 6-0 to request an internal financial audit "to strengthen fiscal integrity and operational excellence." The same motion pattern — Platt-Bryant moving and Wilson seconding — was used to approve the district’s 2025-26 operating budgets for General, Food Service and Debt Service.
The board also approved an updated 2025-26 salary schedule on a motion by Demetrius Hunter, seconded by Tommy Wilson Sr.; that motion carried 6-0. The meeting record does not include detailed line-item budget totals or the salary-scale figures; those documents are part of the district budget packet and will be available from district administration.
Trustees framed the internal audit request as a measure to strengthen fiscal controls; no vote breakdown beyond the 6-0 tallys was recorded. The approvals complete the board’s formal adoption of budget policy direction for the forthcoming school year pending any changes that could arise from certified property values and the August rate adoption process.
