Rialto USD Board of Education Meeting - August 26, 2026

The Rialto Unified School District Board of Education held a regular meeting on August 26, 2026, which included significant discussions on procurement and budget-related topics. A key focus was the update on the Measure A general obligation bond program, with a planned Series B issuance of $90 million aimed at funding capital improvement projects such as replacing aging portable classrooms, safety and security upgrades, athletic field improvements, and HVAC system replacements. The district's municipal advisor provided details on the bond issuance timeline, credit rating (currently AA3), and expected tax rates. Additionally, the board addressed maintenance challenges related to HVAC systems across district facilities, including ongoing repairs and deferred maintenance plans to replace older units. The meeting also featured recognition of the Rialto High School NJROTC for receiving the Navy's Distinguished Unit Award and highlighted community partnerships, such as the Superior Grocers backpack drive. Motions were passed to approve consent calendar items and a resolution for board member remuneration. No new contracts or vendor selections were explicitly mentioned, but the bond issuance and maintenance discussions indicate ongoing procurement and capital project activities.
