Their presence goes beyond mere protection; they actively engage with our school community, offering guidance, support, and mentorship to our students. Whether it's through educational programs, counseling sessions, or simply being a friendly face in the hallways, our SROs embody the values of trust, respect, and collaboration.

9. Public Verbal Comments This communication opportunity is included on the agenda of each regular Board meeting, so citizens may make suggestions or identify concerns about matters affecting the school district or request that an item be placed on a future agenda. As a reminder, the Governing Board meetings are a business meeting of the board held in public and, although public participation is encouraged, it is not the public’s meeting. The Jurupa Unified School District Board of Education encourages and invites the public to comment on items listed on the agenda or on matters within its subject jurisdiction. Public speakers have a right to their own opinions, and neither Board Members nor staff will be responding to those opinions or answering questions. The district’s silence should not be mistaken for agreement, but simply to avoid legal entanglements and/or to protect the privacy of situations that may involve lawsuits, employee discipline, or dismissal. Please be assured that any serious allegations have been or will be investigated thoroughly. Any responses from the Board will take place during Board Member comments. Each speaker will be given 3 minutes to speak, and comments will be limited to a total of 20 minutes per topic.

1. Public Hearing for the Proposed 2026-2027 Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) Presenter: Mr. Brooks California Education Code Section 52060(d) requires that, on or before July 1 of each year, the Governing Board of each school district shall 1) hold a Public Hearing on the Local Control Accountability Plan (LCAP) to be considered for adoption during the subsequent fiscal year; and 2) adopt an LCAP after the Public Hearing. Following the Public Hearing tonight, the LCAP will be on the June 23, 2026, Board agenda for adoption. Furthermore, the LCAP and supporting documentation must be available for public inspection at least three working days before the Public Hearing. That requirement has been met with the posting of this agenda. The proposed 2026-2027 Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) for the Jurupa Unified School District has been prepared in accordance with California Education Code Sections 52060 and 52066, outlining annual goals for all students. The LCAP will outline specific activities to address state and local priorities, including descriptions of expenditures and services to implement these actions. The LCAP will reflect the anticipated annual progress using benchmarks to monitor the plan's progress. The 2026-2027 school year will be the third year of the three-year LCAP cycle.

2. Public Hearing on Proposed District Budgets for 2026-2027 Presenter: Mrs. Ford Per Education Code Section 42127(h), the District must adopt a budget for each fund on or before July 1st. Prior to adoption, a public hearing must be scheduled at which time the public can address the Board on proposed budgets. The major annual operating budget called the General Fund, includes two sub-funds (restricted and unrestricted). Several other items are required of Districts to present at the Public Hearing and are highlighted below. The State Budget has not been approved at the time of this public hearing. However, the District’s proposed Adopted Budget includes projections based on the Governor’s Proposed Budget as presented in late May 2026. The District is projecting a decrease in enrollment of 451 students from the 2025-26 CALPADS enrollment certification. For the budget year 2026-27, the District will be funded under the LCFF “prior 3-year average” ADA funding option. The decrease in enrollment will affect LCFF revenues for the 2026-27 fiscal year and has been reflected accordingly in the Multi-Year Projection. The May Revise LCFF Funding Formula statutory Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) is projected at 2.87%, which is a 0.46% increase from the January budget proposal of 2.41%. Once Average Daily Attendance (ADA) adjustments are factored in, the net year-over-year LCFF funding increase for the District is an effective COLA of 1.41%. Education Protection Account (EPA) Pursuant to Article XIII, Section 36 of the California Constitution, all school districts, charter schools, community college districts, and county offices of education are required to determine how funds received from the Education Protection Account (EPA) are spent within the schools under their jurisdiction. The District allocation of the Education Protection Account (EPA) funds in the 2026-27 fiscal year will be used for instructional salaries. Budget Reserves Transparency Requirements In accordance with Ed Code section 42127(a)(2), the District discloses information at the time of the public hearing regarding the ending fund balance for each fiscal year identified in the budget. The local reserve cap is in effect in the following fiscal year when Proposition 98 reaches statutory thresholds. The local reserve cap is operative in 2026-27.

2026-27 2027-28 2028-29

Minimum 3% Required Reserve $10,707,177 $10,839,042 $10,913,169

Combined assigned and unassigned ending fund balances above the minimum recommended reserve for economic uncertainties are as follows:

2026-27 2027-28 2028-29

ETA System $ 296,236 $ 246,642 $ 197,048
