04/20/2026 Regular Meeting of the TTSD School Board

The Tigard-Tualatin School District held its regular school board meeting on April 20, 2026. The meeting included recognition of student achievements and updates on various school activities. A significant portion of the discussion focused on the district's budget challenges, including a projected $7.2 million shortfall for the 2026-27 school year due to declining enrollment and state funding issues. The board discussed measures such as spending freezes, hiring freezes, and administrative reductions to address the budget gap. They also emphasized the need for advocacy at the state level for improved school funding processes. Additionally, the board reviewed the district's future forward planning initiative, which includes strategic planning, facility usage, boundary adjustments, and program innovation to address enrollment declines and optimize resources. The meeting concluded with the approval of a five-year contract award for student transportation services to Student Transportation of America, effective July 1, 2026, following a competitive RFP process.
