# Board Meeting of the Lawndale Elementary School District

The Lawndale Elementary School District Board held its regular meeting on October 15, 2026. A presentation on Measure CL technology work described ongoing or planned purchases and upgrades: approximately 80 projectors are tentatively scheduled for replacement this year; wireless access points are being replaced, beginning at three sites; camera-system work is underway; and the district plans to upgrade its Raptor visitor-management system to an iPad-based product. The district also reported providing hotspots to 66 families and purchasing Chromebooks annually for fifth graders. AI-related teacher training and tools were discussed, but no specific spending amounts were provided; staff said they are currently using free versions of tools. The district is preparing its first interim budget for presentation in December.

The superintendent outlined a proposed seasonal coaching stipend intended to pay classified and certificated employees equally for comparable work in the ELOP program; the transcript gives a figure of $2,565 per season, though the audio text is unclear. A board member requested that stipend-related items be deferred pending further information. The board approved superintendent action items 10.03–10.22, except items 10.06–10.08, which were deferred; it also approved the listed consent items. The district described RISE/RAP arts-based social-emotional learning services across elementary schools and continued work with its PS Arts partner, without stating contract values. The meeting also featured a Roosevelt Elementary presentation on student learning, family engagement, and maker-space activities.
