Mental Health Update
Cory McIntyre, associate superintendent of middle schools and student services, provided an update on mental
health services available to support district students.
Finance
714.0 Fund Balance Policy Update
Michelle Vargas, chief financial officer, presented a revised policy for School Board consideration that would
direct the use of undesignated funds in excess of ten percent of the general fund budget to support School

fund balance to ensure strong financial management, an increase from the current five percent in the policy.
The policy will return for the board for approval at a future meeting.
