# North Monterey County Unified School District Board Meeting 11/5/2026

The North Monterey County Unified School District Board meeting on November 5, 2026, included an elementary-school presentation on academic progress, attendance, family engagement, and student support, followed by public comment and board reports. The superintendent reported an $8 million gap between revenues and spending in the prior year and projected spending about $7 million above revenues this year, funded from reserves. The district is considering reductions, including non-grant-funded travel and conferences and supplemental hours, but said these measures would not close the gap and that layoffs are anticipated for next school year. Community input was invited at in-person and virtual budget town halls; no budget reductions or procurement actions were approved in the transcript.
