September 22, 2026 - CMS Board of Education Meeting

The Clovis Municipal Schools Board of Education held a meeting on September 22, 2026, covering a range of topics including updates on educational programs, student activities, and academic performance data. Significant procurement-related discussions focused on financial matters such as the authorization and delegation for issuing the first series of bonds approved by voters in November 2025, totaling approximately $9.995 million, with a future issuance planned for 2028. The board discussed the expiration of a 2 mill levy and explored options including a special election or issuing education technology notes, which do not require voter approval, to maintain funding. Additionally, the board approved revisions to salary schedules for various positions, reflecting expanded responsibilities and operational needs, including changes to the student nutrition director, school safety coordinator, and educational assistant schedules. The meeting also highlighted ongoing capital improvement projects, notably the replacement of Clovis High School, with design and construction phases anticipated to proceed rapidly. Motions to approve the salary schedule revisions and bond issuance were passed unanimously, and a permanent cash transfer between funds was also approved to align with state recommendations.
