The Windsor Unified School District Board convened for its latest meeting, beginning with a roll call that confirmed the presence of six members, while one was absent. The meeting commenced with a flag salute led by Stephanie Oman, followed by a significant land acknowledgment in honor of October as Pomo Honor Month. This acknowledgment emphasized the district's commitment to recognizing the indigenous sovereignty of the Miwok, Pomo, and Wapu tribes, highlighting the importance of stewardship and the relationship between the school community and native peoples.
In a notable development, the board reported a settlement agreement reached in a special education due process case, identified as OAH2024 070073. This decision underscores the district's ongoing efforts to address and resolve educational disputes effectively.
Additionally, the board approved an adjustment to the agenda, incorporating a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for the Powell's program at Cali into the consent agenda. This inclusion reflects the board's proactive approach to enhancing educational programs within the district.
