Community Update Re Budget Crisis – October 21st, 2025

October 21, 2025

The BOE voted to hold a special election on December 9, 2025 to put forth two ballot questions that would close the deficit through taxpayer funds, which would avoid the immediate cuts and set up the district for long-term fiscal stability and success.
