May 14, 2025 Board Meeting

The Weaver Union School District Board held its regular meeting on May 14, 2025. Key procurement-related discussions included approval of an agreement with Merced County Office of Education to support the Here to Learn program from July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2027, which the board approved unanimously. The board also adopted a resolution delegating the district representative to the Merced County Schools Insurance Group and approved out-of-state travel for the Director of Nutrition Services to attend a professional conference in San Antonio, Texas. Additionally, the board discussed the recent sale of bonds totaling $66 million at an interest rate of 4.76%, noting the timing was chosen to avoid unfavorable market conditions. There were concerns raised by staff and parents about the district's plan to replace existing storage classrooms with storage containers for band and arts equipment, citing potential damage due to heat and insufficient space, and requests were made to explore alternative storage solutions. Other agenda items included personnel matters, student expulsions, and scheduling of future meetings. No new contracts or capital improvement projects were specifically approved during this session.
