Temple City Unified School District

This document outlines the Temple City Unified School District's Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) for 2026-27, detailing strategic goals for the 2024-2027 period, developed with extensive input from educational partners. The plan focuses on three primary goals: ensuring 21st-century learning and college/career readiness for all students; creating equitable engagement opportunities for rigorous academic and social-emotional success; and fostering safe, healthy, and inclusive learning environments that promote belonging and accessibility for the entire school community.

The meeting includes an agenda focused on several key items: the review and establishment of eligibility lists for the positions of Library Media Assistant and Speech Language Pathology Assistant, the processing of a personnel order, and a report from the Director. Additionally, the commission will address business matters and conduct a closed session to discuss personnel-related items, including hiring, appointments, evaluations, discipline, and releases, followed by an announcement of any actions taken during that session.

The board meeting agenda includes a closed session to confer with labor negotiators regarding the Superintendent. Key items involve receiving the 2026-2027 Local Control and Accountability Plan and the proposed 2026-2027 budget. The board will hold public hearings for the LCAP and the proposed budget adoption. Additionally, the agenda covers the first reading of several board policies, approval of the Consolidated Application, and adoption of a resolution regarding governmental accounting standards. Further items include the approval of an overnight field trip for the Future Business Leaders of America, the declaration of surplus property, and various personnel orders.
