What happened

On May 14, trustees approved restoration of 19 parent-liaison positions at six paid hours, subject to ratification of the CSEA agreement.

Why it matters to families

The action rebuilds school-family contact after earlier reductions, with funding and negotiated work rules shaping how the positions operate.

The evidence

The $1.62871 million plan combines expanded-learning and general funds, with four hours supported by expanded learning and two by the general fund. The vote was 5–1, Acuña opposed and Gonzalez absent. Later meetings report liaisons participating in outreach, but this corpus does not establish an exact ratification date or each employee’s final assignment.
