In-Person/Virtual Regular Board Meeting - June 11, 2026

The Hacienda La Puente Unified School District held a regular board meeting on June 11, 2026, which included extensive discussions on budgetary matters, capital improvement projects, and contract approvals. Key procurement-related topics included an update on Measure BB bond funds, with $148 million approved in 2016 for facility renovations and infrastructure upgrades; the board discussed the allocation of remaining bond funds toward HVAC replacements and IT infrastructure projects. The board also reviewed and approved expenditures and purchase orders related to bond projects and contracts, including a renewal agreement with I Bailey for average daily attendance maximization services, which has reportedly recovered multiple times its cost. The 2026-27 proposed budget was presented, highlighting increased funding from state adjustments and block grants, with a focus on aligning expenditures with Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) goals. Board members raised concerns about transparency, staffing costs, and the need for clearer budget documentation. Additionally, the board discussed policies related to travel and conference budgets for trustees, with some debate over adherence to existing limits. Public comments addressed concerns about term limits, special education funding, and community engagement. Several motions related to budget approvals and contract renewals were passed, while some items were deferred to future meetings for further review.
