Renewable energy, funding plans, and board policy revisions fill out the agenda of the Morongo Unified School District Board of Education meeting for tonight. Reporter Dan Stork has the schedule…
Following a brief closed session at 5:15 on pupil and employee personnel issues, the Morongo Unified School District Board of Education will hold an open workshop at 5:30 on April 1 on legal considerations surrounding renewable energy. In the regular 7 pm open session, the Board will consider the Common Core Funding Plan, which describes how the District will use $1.8 million in state funds for staff training, curriculum development, and technology. The biggest single item by far goes for support of math textbook adoption, accounting for over $1 million. The Board will also address authorization of temporary borrowing between funds, a step required by the County annually, as well as policies on weapons and dangerous instruments, and school-sponsored trips. The Board meets at Joshua Tree Elementary School, 4950 Sunburst Avenue.
