October 22, 2026 - Board Meeting

The Lake Tahoe Unified School District Board of Education regular meeting was held October 22, 2026. The board unanimously approved a mediated agreement with the South Tahoe Educators Association, including an adjusted salary schedule, a welfare-benefits contribution, and a one-time $750 payment for eligible bargaining-unit members. Staff said the agreement would be funded by adjusting planned spending, including potentially deferring some funding for a curriculum adoption; they also noted separate discussions with other employee groups were underway. The Lake Tahoe Educational Foundation reported awarding $21,500 in future-teacher scholarships in 2025–26 and $13,500 so far in the current year; these were foundation awards, not district purchasing actions.

The board considered a resolution authorizing a negotiated sale of up to $30 million in Measure U Series B general-obligation bonds for school-facility projects. The proposed sale names DA Davidson as underwriter and includes approval of bond-sale and disclosure documents. A motion and second to adopt the resolution are recorded, but the transcript does not capture the vote result. The meeting also included informational reports on school plans, special education, and staff development; no other contract awards or purchasing approvals were identified.
