District overview
San José Unified School District
How SJUSD is governed and what its accessible public record shows.
Who makes districtwide decisions?
The San José Unified Board of Education meets on the first and third Thursday of most months. Its agendas, minutes, policies, and supporting documents are published through Simbli, which this automated workflow cannot collect under the vendor's terms.
District scale
California reports 24,311 students enrolled in 2025-26 across an NCES-listed 41 schools.
Elementary-school consolidation
The Schools of Tomorrow committee finalized a recommendation in March 2026; the Board approved the consolidation and boundary-change resolution on March 26 by a 3-2 vote.
Workforce housing
In June 2026 the Board authorized exploration of an already-built development while Hillsdale-site planning continued; no purchase decision was reported.
School-level governance
All schools have SSC and SELAC bodies, but only a bounded subset maintain current, independently published agenda or minutes archives.
The central Board record governs districtwide decisions and can affect named schools, but a vendor-hosted record cannot substitute for school-level SSC records on site plans, categorical funding, and local programs.

Enrollment and school-count figures come from the California Department of Education and NCES. Governance and project details come from San Jose Unified's own published pages plus manually reviewed Simbli board minutes cited in the two published alerts; the complete Simbli agenda and minutes archive was not collected because its terms prohibit automated retrieval.
