# Board Meeting - October 20, 2026

The Elk Grove Unified School District Board meeting on October 20, 2026, included several spending-related employment actions but no vendor selections, bid approvals, or procurement awards. The board unanimously approved employment agreements for Assistant Superintendent of Safety and Student Wellness Chad Switzer ($230,565 annually) and Associate Superintendent Jennifer Avey ($257,440 annually), each through June 30, 2029, with $100 monthly district-travel allowances. It also approved a one-year extension of Superintendent David E. Riley’s agreement through January 1, 2031, setting his 2026–27 base salary at $378,392 and providing annual district contributions of $13,000 each to 403(b) and 457(b) plans, with the contributions scheduled to increase by $1,000 per year under the agreement’s terms.

The board approved revised attendance boundaries and transition provisions for David W. Gordon, Miwok Village, and Carroll elementary schools ahead of Gordon’s planned July 2027 opening; staff presented enrollment and capacity estimates, but no construction or infrastructure spending was approved. A public hearing was held on California Montessori Project Elk Grove’s charter renewal; the school reported high-performance status and requested a seven-year renewal, with board action scheduled for November 17. Speakers urged the district to consider Ampact Reading Corps tutoring, citing possible AmeriCorps support, but the board took no action on the proposal. The board also approved resolutions recognizing Native American Heritage Month and Sikh American Awareness and Appreciation Month, and approved the consent agenda. No procurement activity or contract award was identified.
