District plans conservative summer program lineup amid fiscal uncertainty, prioritizing UPP students and ESY services
District staff presented a scaled summer program plan that retains core services while taking a conservative fiscal approach. The plan centers child development services (CDS) day camps for preschool through eighth grade, extended school year (ESY) for students with IEPs (including required transportation and supports), credit recovery and A‑G completion at the high school, online health classes for incoming ninth graders that include CPR certification, and elementary and junior‑high robotics camps.

Officials said a primary goal is to prioritize unduplicated pupils (UPP)—low‑income students, foster youth and English learners—while offering programming where capacity allows. Staff reported 145 UPP students had already signed up for targeted offerings and confirmed plans to expand seats if demand increases.

Administrators noted fiscal pressures: one‑time funding sources have been exhausted, and the state May revise introduces uncertainty over restricted program funding (ELOP) and other grants. The district said it is proceeding with a conservative staffing and program plan while finalizing budgets, and will continue outreach to families via mass notification and the district website.

Trustees thanked staff for preserving key services and asked staff to continue messaging earlier about summer options and to explore partnerships (BEF, city programs, Boys & Girls Club) to broaden fee‑based or supplementary offerings for families.

No board action beyond acceptance of the report was recorded.
