# Board of Education Regular Charter Meeting, October 27, 2026

The San Diego Unified School District Board of Education’s regular charter meeting on October 27, 2026, included updates on Title I spending, school nutrition, and the San Diego Regional Housing Finance Agency. The District Advisory Council and district staff discussed improving transparency around Title I allocations and expenditures through public dashboards, quarterly central-office spending updates, and a proposed pilot at eight Title I schools connecting planning, spending, and student outcomes. Board members cited a reduction in unspent Title I funds from about $4 million in 2021 to a projected few hundred thousand dollars. The district also reported that its school meal program earned Eat Real silver certification; the evaluator noted that more than half of the menu is locally sourced and the program serves over 100,000 meals daily. No specific food-service contract or procurement award was presented.

A board member’s update on the regional housing finance agency reported $6.5 million in state budget funding under AB 113 to support housing preservation near jobs, schools, and transit, plus agency establishment costs; the agency had also received about $650,000 from the Prebys Foundation and $500,000 in district and community-college in-kind staff support. Potential access to $200 million through a competitive funding process was discussed if Proposition 1 passes. No housing project award or procurement vote was identified. The superintendent also described continued stakeholder engagement on draft guidance for student technology use; public commenters raised concerns about existing technology contracts and access, but the board took no related purchasing action. No RFPs, vendor selections, or contract awards were identified.
