BOE Meeting November 2026

The Oak Hills Board of Education’s November 2026 meeting included a presentation on the differentiated core early-literacy program, which was expanded from a first-grade pilot to four schools this year, with second grade added at one school. Staff reported early progress-monitoring gains and described continued assessment and collaboration across schools. The board also discussed state education funding and district budget pressures; the treasurer reported that the district’s Permanent Improvement fund reserve is slightly more than $3 million and recommended seeking court authorization to transfer reserve funds to the general fund. The board approved the related request, but the transfer remains subject to a court decision. The treasurer also noted that high-school air-conditioning work had been budgeted with approximately $10.5 million in borrowing, while costs were reportedly in the $7–8 million range, contributing to the reserve. Staff said activity on a new building project may begin in the coming months. No vendor selection, contract award, or bid approval was identified.

The board approved meeting minutes, donations, a resolution to file a modified tax budget for fiscal year 2027–28, district policy revisions, and personnel actions. It also approved a high-school midterm-exam schedule proposal and student trips. The board then entered executive session to consider the employment of a public employee or official.
