School Board: Labor Union Agreements, Budget

At its July 24 meeting (agenda: http://goo.gl/te7hl ), the Monrovia School Board will decide whether to approve agreements with the Monrovia Teachers Association (agreement here: http://goo.gl/n97Pj ) and the California School Employees Association (agreement here: http://goo.gl/uPSVj ).

Also, the board will hear a report on the district budget prepared by Director of Fiscal Services David Conway, who has some kind words for the state: "This is the first state budget in nearly a decade that is truly balanced, without using accounting gimmicks, funding shifts or increased deferrals of state apportionments." http://goo.gl/kWz1V
