# PUSD Board of Education Regular Meeting - Live Coverage of September 24, 2026

The Pasadena Unified School District Board of Education held a regular meeting on September 24, 2026, focusing on several key topics including the approval of settlements related to special education litigation and the authorization of a $36,000 bio-remediation contract for tree preservation at Blair High School. The board discussed the allocation and transparency of bond funds, particularly concerning the Don Bonito campus, with community members expressing concerns about deferred repairs and fund redirection. A significant portion of the meeting was dedicated to an in-depth presentation and discussion on the Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS) framework, addressing academic and behavioral interventions, data tracking, and resource allocation amid budget constraints. The board also approved a resolution confirming the sufficiency of instructional materials for the 2026-27 school year. Additionally, there was debate over a proposal to create a centralized web page for school consolidation data, which was ultimately tabled due to concerns about staff capacity and clarity of purpose. Other agenda items included first readings of board policies related to academic credit reciprocity and discussions on specialized educational programs and consultant contracts. The meeting concluded with board member comments and requests for future budget projections and transparency measures.
