Special Board Meeting - June 23, 2026

The Elk Grove Unified School District held a Special Board Meeting on June 23, 2026, focused primarily on professional development and organizational culture rather than procurement activities. The meeting featured an extensive training session led by Michael Merchant from the Arbinger Institute, emphasizing the importance of mindset in leadership and collaboration within the district. Discussions centered on fostering an outward mindset to improve teamwork, accountability, and problem-solving across the district. While the meeting included interactive exercises and reflections on district priorities such as chronic absenteeism, employee retention, differing values, and student achievement, no contract awards, vendor selections, or budgetary decisions were discussed or recorded during this session.
