The Arcadia Unified School District (AUSD) Board of Education held a meeting on July 28, 2026, where several procurement-related and budgetary topics were discussed. The board approved appointments to the Measure A and combined Measure I and AS citizens oversight committees, which are responsible for ensuring proper spending and reporting of bond and parcel tax funds. The board also approved updates to the English learner reclassification criteria to align with new assessment tools and anticipated state legislative changes. Budget updates were provided, highlighting the receipt of approximately $9 million in one-time funds, including an $8.4 million student support professional development block grant and a $650,000 restricted grant with specific spending timelines. The district also reported an increase in special education funding by about $3.8 million. Additionally, the board reviewed donation reports totaling over $555,000 for the 2025-26 fiscal year and discussed ongoing preparations for the upcoming school year, including staffing, training, and facility readiness under the Measure AS facilities bond program.
