Sequoia Union High funding, governance and active work

Sequoia Union High School District

Operating revenue and a $591.5 million facilities program across the peninsula high-school district

Who controls Sequoia Union High's schools and capital plan?

Five elected trustees govern the district; voter bonds fund major facilities work

Five trustees elected from areas A-E set direction and oversee the superintendent for a district serving nearly 9,000 high-school students. Operations draw on California LCFF, other state funds, federal funds and local revenue. Major modernization is separately financed by voter-approved Measure W bonds and state matching funds, with a citizens' committee reviewing bond spending.

Five-area Board governance

Trustees serve four-year terms; rotating Student Advisory Council members participate as student board members.

LCFF is the core operating source

The official 2024-25 LCAP projected $204.56 million in LCFF funds, 85% of projected General Fund revenue.

Measure W is restricted capital funding

Voters approved $591.5 million in November 2022; bond proceeds support modernization and cannot substitute for ordinary operations.

Citizen oversight follows the money

The Board created the Measure W Citizens' Bond Oversight Committee in April 2024, with quarterly finance and progress reporting.

A newer adopted operating-budget total was not exposed on the district's current financial-reports page reviewed here; the latest readily verifiable district-wide revenue composition is therefore the 2024-25 LCAP, while capital status is current through March 2026.
