Analysis : At the Regular meeting on June 10, 2021, the Board approved a letter agreement with Cumming for the Phase III and IV Bond schools in the amount of $1,878,200, with an estimated duration of 24 months. In October 2023, the District amended the agreement to reflect the District’s revised “Phase B” strategy, which accelerated completion of all sites. This amendment added approximately 36 months to the project assignment; however, no additional funds were added at that time because the original allocation still had a remaining balance. By June 2025, those funds had been spent down and the Board approved supplementing those funds with an additional $621,740. The District is requesting an additional $362,800 for Phase B services to sustain operations through the remainder of the fiscal year. All work by Cumming is billed on a time-and-materials basis and is verified monthly. Any unused funds are returned to the Measure BB account.

Analysis : On Thursday, September 23, 2010, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger signed AB 1775, the Fred Korematsu Day of Civil Liberties and Constitution bill, creating a day to honor Fred Korematsu, who challenged the United States government’s internment of Japanese Americans during World War II. In 1942, in Oakland, California, Fred Korematsu refused to go to the internment camps and was arrested. He fought his case all the way to the Supreme Court, and despite his tenacity and courage the Supreme Court upheld the policy. Mr. Korematsu’s conviction was ultimately overturned in 1984, a decision that influenced Congress to pass the Civil Liberties Act of 1988, which recognizes the grave injustice done by forced relocation and internment of civilian Americans because of wartime prejudice. Mr. Korematsu has dedicated his life to championing civil rights and protesting the internment of Japanese American during World War II.

(Mr. Maldonado) Meeting Jan 22, 2026 - In-Person/Virtual Regular Board of Education Meeting Type Action Recommendation : Approve to increase employee salaries that fall below minimum wage to comply with 2026 California Minimum Wage Increase.

Pursuant to Labor Code section 1182.12 (c), the Director of Finance has certified an inflationary adjustment for the upcoming year.
