The Monrovia Unified School District Board of Education approved multiple routine and programmatic items at its Feb. 11 open session, including accountability reports, instructional partnerships, facilities contracts and proclamations.
What passed: The board approved the 2024–25 School Accountability Report Cards (SARCs) for all district schools. The board also approved a contract with Xello Inc. for an interactive college- and career-exploration license (03/01/2026–06/30/2027) to extend college- and career-planning resources for K–12 students. A grant-funded collaboration with The New Teacher Project (TNTP) and Great Minds (Eureka Math) to provide professional development, data analysis and administrative coaching for mathematics was approved unanimously. The board approved a memorandum of understanding with Transcend, Inc. to deliver three virtual transition-focused webinars for families (02/11/2026–04/15/2026) and two agreements with VCA Engineers Inc. for underground utility locating (ground-penetrating radar) and topographic surveys to support the Plymouth Elementary modernization project.
Votes of note: Several items passed unanimously (4–0). Two contracts—the SARCs approval and the Xello contract—each carried a 3–1 roll call vote after Board Member Lockerbie voted No on those items; other action items recorded unanimous votes.
Resolutions: The board adopted three resolutions recognizing February as Black History Month, National School Counseling Week (February 2026) and Career and Technical Education Month; all resolutions passed 4–0.
Context and next steps: Board members and staff discussed logistical details (for example, posting resolutions to school sites and the website) and requested that large document sets such as SARCs be split across multiple agendas in the future to aid review. The VCA agreements were presented as cost-saving measures and part of planning work for the Plymouth modernization project.
Roll-call reporting: Votes were recorded on the public record via roll-call; where votes were taken the roll-call responses were read into the record (yes/no) and tallies were announced.
What the meeting did not resolve: The transcript does not include contract dollar amounts or detailed timelines for implementation beyond the Xello contract dates and the Transcend webinar window; those specifics were not read into the record during the meeting.
