SMUSD Regular Governing Board Meeting 6-18-2026

The San Marcos Unified School District Governing Board held a regular business meeting on June 18, 2026, which included several procurement and budget-related discussions. Key procurement topics included a detailed report from the district's Bond Oversight Committee on Measure JJ bond expenditures and ongoing capital improvement projects such as renovations at Mission Hills High School, Knob Hill, Woodland Park Middle School, and Summer Creek High School. The committee confirmed compliance with legal and financial requirements, including an independent audit with no deficiencies. The board also conducted a public hearing and approved resolutions related to the annexation of territory into Community Facilities District (CFD) number 14, authorizing special taxes to support development projects. Additionally, the board reviewed and adopted the 2026-2027 budget, which includes an estimated $315.4 million in general fund revenues and addresses structural deficits with ongoing cost management strategies. The budget incorporates salary adjustments, including a memorandum of understanding with CSEA for paraeducator reclassification and salary realignment, with an estimated annual cost of just under $800,000, offset by cost savings from administrative restructuring. The meeting also featured the presentation of new athletic program protocols aimed at standardizing operations and compliance across the district. Policy updates related to immigration enforcement and student records were introduced for future approval. No new contract awards or RFPs were reported during this meeting.
