MVUSD Study Session Meeting Board of Education 4/15/26

The Moreno Valley Unified School District Board of Education held a study session on April 15, 2026, focused primarily on reviewing and providing feedback on the Local Control Accountability Plan (LCAP) for the 2024-27 three-year period. The session included detailed presentations on district goals, metrics, expenditures, and actions related to student achievement, equity, college and career readiness, learning environment, and communication. Board members and community participants engaged in interactive "world cafe" discussions to identify celebrations, concerns, contributing factors, and corrective actions for various LCAP goals. Key topics included addressing disproportionality in suspension rates, improving chronic absenteeism, expanding parent engagement and communication strategies, and enhancing professional development for educators. While no specific contract awards or procurement decisions were made, the discussion highlighted budget expenditures of approximately $115 million as of April 1, 2026, and emphasized the importance of data-driven resource allocation and program implementation to support district priorities. The board also discussed potential policy directions related to transportation equity and mandatory training on unconscious bias to improve student outcomes.
