# TUSD Budget Advisory Committee Meeting 10/7/26

The TUSD Budget Advisory Committee met on October 7, 2026. Members approved, by a 5–0 roll-call vote, a schedule of future meetings through January 13, with upcoming sessions focused on possible school closures or consolidations and summer school. The committee discussed how consolidation decisions could affect transportation, before- and after-school care, student programs, facilities maintenance, and district staff. Participants also discussed whether unused school buildings might be leased to generate revenue; possible interest from local organizations, including for affordable housing, was mentioned, but no specific property or leasing decision was identified.

Budget discussions included a committee member’s concern that summer-school credit recovery and enrichment opportunities had been reduced, and that students may leave TUSD to access those services elsewhere. The member cited approximately $200,000 left over in dropout-prevention funds last year and asked whether those funds could support enrichment and summer programs. The committee requested follow-up information from district staff on allowable uses of that funding, the budget slides related to school reconfiguration, and the source and sustainability of funding for English Learner summer classes. No contract awards, bids, vendor selections, or other purchasing approvals were identified.
