Board approves reduction of hours for 13 TLC lead teacher positions in 3–2 vote

The El Segundo Unified School District Board of Education voted 3–2 to adopt Resolution No. 16, which reduces hours for 13 TLC lead teacher positions from 8 to 6.5 beginning in the 2026–27 school year.

District staff introduced the resolution as a recommended personnel adjustment tied to program needs and budget planning. As presented, "the resolution reduces the hours for these positions from 8 to 6.5 hours beginning in the 2627 school year," a district staff member said. The motion was moved and seconded; during the roll call a board member corrected an earlier recorded vote, and the chair noted the final tally as 3 in favor and 2 opposed.

Board discussion on the item was brief in the recorded transcript; one trustee later clarified a mistaken earlier vote on the record. The transcript does not record additional specific mitigation, severance, or reassignment measures tied to the reduced hours.

The resolution was filed as Resolution No. 16 and will take effect for the 2026–27 school year. The board did not provide full text of the implementing personnel notices in the meeting record.
