Assistant Superintendent of Business and Operations Angela Von Essen provided a review of the November 12 presentation to the Board: Financial Update and 2025-26 Budget Planning.

The Board reviewed the draft guidance developed by Board Officers, President Emily Williams and Vice President Sara Betnel. This draft guidance was presented at the November 12 meeting and then reviewed by the three board members (including officers) in attendance at that meeting. The 2025-2026 Budget Timeline was also reviewed for ongoing Board reference.

School Board Directors affirmed the guidance as presented and discussed additional language, which will be incorporated and finalized by Board Officers.
