The Pajaro Valley Unified School District Sustainable Schools Advisory Board met on October 20, 2026, to continue discussions on school consolidation, grade reconfiguration, and boundary adjustments. Members reviewed the planning schedule, upcoming middle-school engagement sessions and surveys, enrollment and capacity information, facility needs, and an educational program framework. Discussion emphasized middle-school students’ developmental needs, access to electives and student supports, staffing and collaboration, and potential K–8 and 6–12 models. The group asked staff not to bring back middle-school boundary maps yet, noting that program priorities and local community knowledge should inform any future scenarios. No motions or votes were reported, and no contract awards, bids, vendor selections, or purchasing decisions were identified.
Participants also discussed survey outreach and follow-up presentations to school site councils, as well as possible funding sources for educational supports, including LCFF, Title I, Proposition 28, ELOP, and community-school grants. These were discussed as context for program planning; no specific budget allocation or grant action was approved. The meeting focused on advisory input and future planning rather than procurement activity.
