Apr 28, 2026 - Special Meeting of the Board of Trustees

The special meeting of the Board of Trustees for AVUSD held on April 28, 2026, primarily focused on governance and administrative matters rather than direct procurement activities. Key discussions included extending the superintendent's evaluation timeline, adopting rules of order for conducting board meetings, and addressing concerns related to budget clarity and the involvement of School Services of California in budget consultation. The board debated the appropriateness of moving forward with contracts for governance training and budget services, with some members expressing concerns about potential duplication of costs and the need for input from certificated staff on vendor selection. Additionally, the board considered the frequency of meetings and discussed intra- and inter-district transfer data to inform future decisions. No contract awards, RFPs, or direct procurement decisions were made during this meeting, but there was mention of pending contracts with the California School Boards Association for governance training, which will require future ratification.
