OCESD Board Study Session

The OCESD Board held a study session on September 9, 2026, covering its AB 50 charter review and the charter’s fiscal health and audit materials. Board members and staff discussed questions about charter petition requirements, curriculum details, financial projections and salary assumptions, and special education policies. Staff invited members to submit further questions; a written staff analysis was expected by October 6, ahead of the public hearing and determination meeting.

The Board also considered and approved an agreement with Concordia University in Irvine, apparently related to an administrative credential arrangement. The transcript records several affirmative votes and one “pass” (abstention), though the names and tally are unclear. No contract value or other financial terms were stated. No other procurement or spending decisions were identified.
