The Oakdale Joint Unified School District (OJUSD) Board’s October 13, 2026 meeting included discussion of employee negotiations, school safety, course offerings, and transitional kindergarten (TK). In a public hearing, CSEA Chapter 830 presented its initial bargaining proposal for the 2026–27 successor agreement, emphasizing classified employee compensation and working conditions. A classified representative cited district financial projections showing an 11.43% reserve and positive cash flow over the next three years; no bargaining agreement or compensation allocation was approved at this meeting. The board also discussed proposed engineering and architecture courses, with an estimated $35,000 cost to be covered by a grant program, and new art courses that would use existing staffing and equipment already purchased with Prop 28 funds. No vendor selection, contract award, or bid approval was identified.

The board approved a plan to implement full-day TK in 2028–29, subject to possible postponement to 2029–30 if school modernization projects require more time. The district estimated approximately $200,000 in increased costs, primarily to extend TK staff hours, and discussed potential needs for additional classrooms, meals, and transportation. The board also reviewed the first half of Section 6000 board policies for a first reading; a graduation-requirements policy will return in November for revision. Other discussion covered campus safety plans and emergency procedures. No specific construction contract or procurement action was approved.
