CUSD Special Board Meeting - July 8, 2026

The Calexico Unified School District held a special board meeting on July 8, 2026, primarily to approve an updated salary schedule reflecting a 2.87% statutory cost of living adjustment (COLA) for the 2026-2027 school year. This adjustment applies to the teachers' union (ACT) and the classified union (CSCA), updating the previously negotiated 2.41% increase to the higher state-approved COLA. The board unanimously approved this revision. Additionally, the board discussed plans to bring a similar COLA adjustment for classified and certificated management staff at the regular August board meeting, as government code restricts such approvals during special meetings. No other procurement or contracting matters were addressed during this session.
