Agenda Item
J.-1 25-2969 Presentation to the Board of Education by District Entities - All City Council, Parent Student Advisory Committee, Board Bylaw 9131 Committee and Commissions (first come, for no more than 10 minutes each, for cumulative time not to exceed one hour) Special or Specific Comments, Advice To the Board on Balancing the Fiscal Years 2025-2026, 2026-2027 District Budgets.
Stop the attacks on each other and work for the best interest of the students, otherwise kindly step down because you're causing too much harm with your continued attacks and the children are the ones who are suffering
Community School District model combined with declining enrollment overall has set OUSD up for failure. We have too many seats spread across too many sites with not enough children. This is a structural deficit that can not be solved without consolidating the number of schools OUSD runs. This board must make the courageous decisions to fix the structural deficit and set OUSD up for long-term success. If board members are unable or unwilling to do that, it would be better they take no action, have the state take over quickly, and have painful but necessary changes forced onto OUSD.
