Action Items Type Action Recommended Action To approve a revision to the General Fund budget in the amount of $11,658,787 to allocate the initial funds approved by the State and increasing the total General Fund budget to $616,199,673 with an overall upper limit spending authority of $881,865,741. ANCHORAGE SCHOOL DISTRICT ANCHORAGE, ALASKA ASD MEMORANDUM #006 (2026-2027) JULY 7, 2026 TO: SCHOOL BOARD FROM: DR. JHARRETT BRYANTT, SUPERINTENDENT SUBJECT: FY 2026-2027 BUDGET REVISION ASD Core Value: The District will be open, transparent and accountable to the public. RECOMMENDATION: It is the Administration’s recommendation that the School Board approve a revision to the General Fund budget in the amount of $11,658,787 to allocate the initial funds approved by the State and increasing the total General Fund budget to $616,199,673 with an overall upper limit spending authority of $881,865,741. PERTINENT FACTS: During the 2026 session, the Alaska Legislature passed the following bills that provide additional funding to the District for FY 2026-27. The financial impacts of those bills are listed below. On May 20, 2026, the Alaska Legislature passed HB 28 which capped the Required Local Contribution (RLC) increase at 4 percent of the prior year beginning in FY 2026-27. This change results in a net increase in State funding of $6,119,153 for ASD. On May 20, 2026, the Alaska Legislature passed HB 263 which provided one-time funds for energy relief in the amount of $5,539,634 for ASD for FY 2026-27. Additionally, this bill could provide estimated additional one-time funding in the amount of $32 million, however, these funds are contingent upon the actual amount of revenue received by the State for FY 2025-26, as determined by the Commissioner of Revenue on August 31, 2026. Because that determination occurs after the school year has already begun, the Anchorage School District has sent a letter to the Commissioner of Revenue requesting additional information and any available preliminary revenue projections to support responsible staffing, budgeting, and operational planning. If the unrestricted general fund revenue for the State exceeds $6,300,000,000 the first $127,340,800 of that excess will go to permanent fund dividends. After the dividends are funded, the next $115,000,000 will be distributed to school districts statewide as one-time payments based on each district’s adjusted average daily membership. The District has significant needs to address prior to the start of the school year and, in an effort to get resources to students, it is recommended that the following allocations be approved with the initial allocations. Classroom Teachers - $ 6,819,723 This will provide 50.5 FTE for classroom teachers to adjust the metric for elementary specialist teachers to provide planning time for elementary teachers in addition to adding holdback teachers to address class size bubbles and scheduling conflicts at all levels. Alaska Middle College School (AMCS) Contracted Services - $437,000 The increase to contracted services is necessary to pay for the cost of student tuition at UAA. Increased enrollment at the AMCS, along with tuition cost increases have increased the amount ne eded to meet the contractual obligations of the program. . Special Education 504 Coordinator - $151,287 This position was inadvertently left out of the original budget and is necessary to comply with federal requirements for students with disabilities. Indigenous Education Specialist - $122,061 This position was inadvertently left out of the original budget and is necessary to support ASD’s indigenous students. Salary Budget Correction – ($204,745) This is a correction for a position at Whaley that was removed from the budget and represents a savings to the District. The position was eliminated; however, the dollars tied to the position were increased rather than decreased in the budget. En glish Language Arts Grades 6-10 Curriculum - $2,786,873 This will fund the pilot and adoption of the grades 6-10 English Language Arts curriculum. The current curriculum is not being republished and ASD will need to adopt a new curriculum as a result. Student Activities Addenda - $460,620 Additional activities addenda is needed for high schools to provide a wide range of opportunities for students. When the sports costs were added back to the original budget, funds for the remaining budgeted activities were included in the amounts calculated to restore the sports and should not have been. Additionally, some addenda for certain positions changed rates and these funds will shore those up as well. Pending Negotiations – ($460,620) The District has included funding in pending negotiations to account for unknown contractual and addenda changes. As projections and budgets are firmed up, these funds can be used to pay for the activities addenda need ed in the item above. Fuel - $75,000 Fuel prices have increased substantially over the past few months and, while they seem to have leveled off, it is still higher than what was projected during initial budget development. School Board Memberships - $121,230 This will restore the School Board’s memberships to the Alaska Association of School Boards, the National Association of School Boards, the Council of Great City Schools, and the Coalition for Education Equity. Through SB 143, the State has put a greater emphasis on having ethics and budget training for school board members and these organizations provide valuable resources for member districts . Attrition - $ 914,074 The attrition offset in the budget is used to account for the financial savings of unfilled positions and waived benefits. This allows the District to put the estimated amount of savings into other areas of the budget so the funds can be directed towards student achievement rather than having a large surplus at the end of the year. Given the substantial number of position reductions, the number of vacancies is expected to be lower than in prior years and this would allow a little bit more of a buffer to help meet attrition targets. Charter schools proportionate share - $436,284 This funding will support the District’s charter schools and is required under Alaska Statute. There are separate calculations for the different types of revenue received. The $6.1 million that is received from RLC changes is provided to charter schools based on the Adjusted Average Daily Membership (AADM) and represents $347,357. The remaining $88,927 is the proportionate share of the $5.5 million energy relief payments. Funds were distributed to districts based on their FY25 proportionate share of energy costs statewide. Funding for the charter schools was determined in the same manner as the State allocated funds to districts.

There are three different categories for the Denali Award: Classified, Certificated, and Team. ASD is honored to recognize two individuals and one group as the 2026 Denali Award winners. Honorable Mention The District will also acknowledge several individuals who received Honorable Mention for their exceptional service and dedication. Extraordinary Service: ASD Typhoon Halong Response Additionally, this year the District would like to extend the Denali Awards to include a special category, recognizing Extraordinary Service of employees during the Typhoon Halong response. ASD is honored to recognize a group of schools, departments, and individuals for their extraordinary service. During a time of tremendous need, these employees embodied the values of the Denali Award through their compassion, leadership, and unwavering support for displaced students and families from Western Alaska. Their efforts helped create stability, belonging, and care for families experiencing unimaginable loss, and their actions reflected the very best of ASD.

Recognizes an $80–$90 million structural shortfall addressed through cuts including closure of three schools, a +4 pupil-teacher ratio increase, and elimination of 500 positions
Lists specific program cuts at secondary schools due to the PTR increase, including band, AP courses, world languages, and career readiness programs
Proposes restoring 5.5 nurse FTEs, sports and activities addenda, the Dome and riflery programs, and special education and Indigenous education positions

Action Items Type Action Recommended Action Recommend adoption of Resolution ASDR 25-26-02 - Resolution directing Administration to revise the proposed FY27 budget should the 34th Legislature approve and fund a $700 increase to the base student allocation prior to June 30, 2026. ASDR# 25-26-02 “RESOLUTION DIRECTING THE ADMINISTRATION TO REVISE THE PROPOSED FY27 BUDGET SHOULD THE 34TH LEGISLATURE APPROVE AND FUND A $700 INCREASE TO THE BASE STUDENT ALLOCATION PRIOR TO JUNE 30, 2026” WHEREAS, the Anchorage School District in October 2025 announced projections of a structural budget shortfall of approximately $80 million for fiscal year 2026-2027 (FY 27); by January 2026, this figure grew to approximately $90 million due to inflationary costs and negotiated labor agreements; and WHEREAS, the Anchorage School Board strives to be fiscally responsible, highly efficient, and focused on student outcomes when providing public education services; and WHEREAS , the District reduced administrative and operational staffing by 109 full time equivalent positions (FTE) between fiscal years 2012 and 2026, including significant reductions to Teaching and Learning, Information Technology, Project Management, Communications, Purchasing, and Accounting while it also expanded Mental Health and Preschool services by investing 32 FTE in these new operational commitments since 2024; and WHEREAS, the Anchorage School Board approved a balanced budget for FY 27 on February 24, 2026 by spending fund balance down to a 5% Board minimum, implementing new administrative efficiencies (as detailed in Attachment A) and programmatic reductions, authorizing cuts to nursing care and athletic programs, closing three schools, switching from a seven-period to a six-period middle school schedule, and adopting a K-12 Pupil-Teacher-Ratio (PTR) increase of +4, thereby eliminating approximately 500 positions and $90 million in structural deficit; and WHEREAS, Anchorage community input from the 2025-26 school year as well as the last 5 years has consistently prioritized the efficiency of operations, the protection of successful student “pathways” programs, the preservation of a nursing model employing one nurse per school, and class size reductions; and WHEREAS , because principals have prioritized meeting graduation requirements in next year’s course catalogues, severe pressure from the +4 PTR increase has caused principals to significantly reduce or eliminate secondary student pathway programs such as: Bartlett High School band and French programs; Bettye Davis East Anchorage High School band, career readiness programs, and Advanced Placement (AP) programs; Chugiak High School World Discovery Seminar, career readiness programs, and math remediation opportunities; Dimond High career readiness programs, immersion and world languages, and almost all AP courses; Eagle River High School career readiness, yearbook, student government, AP courses, band, and orchestra; Service High School career readiness, German, and Advanced Placement programs; South High School yearbook, two world languages, and six AP courses; West High School Russian immersion program, career readiness, yearbook, and theater; and WHEREAS , the +4 PTR increase will require elementary teachers at all schools to grapple with substantially increased class sizes and has already created programmatic maladies throughout the District, including the following: The reduction in the number of available lottery seats across the Bowman Optional Program, jeopardizing the future viability of the program with smaller entering cohorts feeding into the program; The elimination of districtwide busing to the Rogers Park Elementary Highly Gifted Program, severely reducing the program’s accessibility for high-need students living across Anchorage, Girdwood, Chugiak, Eagle River, and on JBER; The elimination of most holdback positions, risking unviably small early-grade cohorts in many special programs and threatening program collapse; and The presence of hundreds of uneven student groupings (“class size bubbles”) that cannot be evenly or effectively divided between classrooms and will result in overcrowded and more mixed-grade (combination) classes than the PTR formula is designed to support; and WHEREAS, these severe reductions to student pathways in elementary and high schools have greatly reduced the efficiency of learning programs, increasing the risk for a future Board to require additional funds from the State to provide make-up credit and/or individualized student instruction to meet state requirements for student achievement; and WHEREAS , any additional funds invested in class size reductions for FY 27 and beyond through the PTR formula will greatly improve the efficiency of ASD’s academic operations by generating additional FTE allocations for schools that will restore some or all of these successful evidence-based successful programs; and WHEREAS, any level of class size reduction for FY 27 will be untenable without receipt of additional, recurring State revenue; and WHEREAS, while the cost to lower FY27 PTR levels by 3 is $17.54 million, the cost to implement K-12 class sizes for FY27 indicated by the Picus-Odden Evidence Based Model is $95.8 million; and WHEREAS, the current estimate of the District’s 2027-2028 (FY 28) structural shortfall due to negotiated increases in contracts and projected increases to unsettled contracts, healthcare, utilities, fuel, and liability insurance, as shared during the April 23, 2026 Finance Committee meeting, is projected to be $44.7 million; and WHEREAS, since the February 24, 2026 passage of the FY 27 budget, the administration has expressed the need to restore two positions which serve high-need students in districtwide programs for intervention and to restore secondary sports and activities addenda; and WHEREAS, since the February 24, 2026 passage of the FY 27 budget, the Board has committed the restoration of the seven-period middle school day to remain legally compliant with nondiscrimination of students in accordance with the Individuals with Disabilities in Education Act and the Every Student Succeeds Act; and WHEREAS, the seven-period middle school schedule will likely need to be funded for FY 28 for the same adherence to nondiscrimination; and WHEREAS, since the February 24, 2026 passage of the FY 27 budget, community stakeholders have expressed a range of priorities centered on reducing class sizes but also related to restoring one nurse at every school; restoring safe, equitable student athlete access to the Dome; restoring the Riflery program; and restoring myriad school- and program-specific priorities via additional allocations of teacher FTE; and WHEREAS , appropriating any one-time funds to sustain current operations will always increase the structural deficit of future years, unless the Legislature makes recurring revenues available for such future years; and WHEREAS, the Board is committed to reducing the structural budget deficit to $0 over time, thereby decreasing operational risk and ensuring stability of services; and WHEREAS, the most effective use of new recurring revenue is a multi-year approach that prioritizes the immediate restoration of high-impact programs while obligating remaining funds to sustain future teaching positions affected by the structural costs of those investments; and WHEREAS, should the Legislature provide the District any additional or one-time recurring funding, ASD’s charter schools would receive their statutory share before the District would allocate remaining dollars. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that should the 34th Legislature approve a statutory change to AS 14.17.470 prior to June 30, 2026 and thereby provide the Anchorage School District with a stable, recurring increase to the Base Student Allocation of $700 or more per student for FY 27, the Anchorage School Board directs the Administration to divide and allocate those funds, less charter schools’ statutory share of any new revenue, as follows: Detail of investments in student learning, safety, services and opportunities based on no less than a $700 statutory increase to the BSA for FY27 FY 27 Investment (million) # of FTE restored Fiscal year funded Decrease FY 27 K-12 PTR levels by 3 in order to partially reverse the adopted PTR increase of +4. This investment will reduce anticipated FY27 class sizes and restore the viability of high-success student pathway programs by restoring 126.4 Classroom Teacher FTE and 5.7 Kindergarten Paraprofessional FTE. Actual FTE shall be allocated by enrollment as indicated in Attachment B. $17.540 132.1 FY27 Restore 5.5 Nurse FTE to return full-time nursing services to students at all schools $0.715 5.5 FY27 Restore 1 Special Education FTE to ensure students with disabilities receive legally required services and accommodations $0.152 1 FY27 Restore 1 school-based Indigenous Education FTE to ensure alignment with adopted Board Guardrails $0.123 1 FY27 Restore funds to retain the FY 27 contracts for the Dome and riflery programs ensuring accessible wintertime and early spring athletic programs for 20,000 secondary students $0.264 N/A FY27 Restore secondary sports and activities addenda for athletic supervision and coaching services $0.400 N/A FY27 Allocate statutory requirement to charter schools' share of FY 27 revenue $2.800 N/A FY27 Obligate funds to retain the 28.4 classroom teacher FTE needed to maintain the Middle School Model for FY 28 $4.140 28.4 FY28 Obligate remaining funds, less unanticipated costs, toward retaining nurses and highly qualified classroom teachers in FY 28, to offset the structural deficit increase of all other investments $23.866 170 (est.) FY28 TOTAL used and obliged during FY27 $50.000 338 BE

Action Items Type Action Recommended Action To approve the temporary reinstatement of a seven-period academic schedule at the middle school level for the 2026/27 school year. ANCHORAGE SCHOOL DISTRICT ANCHORAGE, ALASKA ASD MEMORANDUM #163 (2025-2026) April 27, 2026 TO: SCHOOL BOARD FROM: JHARRETT BRYANTT, SUPERINTENDENT SUBJECT: MIDDLE SCHOOL SEVEN-PERIOD DAY - ONE-YEAR REINSTATEMENT ASD Core Value: Every student deserves the opportunity to achieve his or her potential. RECOMMENDATION: It is the Administration’s recommendation that the School Board approve the temporary (removed after 4/27/26 Board meeting) reinstatement of a seven-period academic schedule at the middle school level for the 2026/27 school year. PERTINENT FACTS: Providing a seven-period day for the 2026/27 school year will allow the Administration time to determine how to ensure access to core content, elective offerings, and appropriate services and supports for students, should a six-period day be necessary due to budgetary constraints in the following school year. With the adoption of a six-period day as outlined in the approved FY27 ASD budget, school and District administrators began to uncover challenges in ensuring that all students could participate in core content while also gaining experience with electives, programs, and needed supports. Specifically, moving middle schools to a six-period day has exposed the following impacts on student schedules and support: Removes an elective from all students' schedules Reduces access to programs and classes for students that ensure individual needs and language acquisition are met Forces Immersion students to choose between continuing in the program and taking music or another elective Limits students' ability to experience multiple elective tracks (fine arts, world language, art, CTE) Decreases teachers' ability to identify struggling or at-risk students Eliminates cross-curricular collaboration/academic opportunities for students These impacts not only affect students' opportunities during their middle school years, but also diminish the experiences and skills they take to high school. With the elimination of an elective period, students may lose exposure to a myriad of electives and other academic options when they matriculate to high school. Many students will only receive brief, if any, experience with the arts, career and technical education, and world languages. By providing a seven-period day for the 2026/27 school year, ASD administration, in all impacted departments, can work to develop an appropriate and sustainable system for student scheduling which prioritizes core material and necessary supports, while also embedding opportunities for elective and program participation as well as a focus on Social and Emotional Learning. As a stopgap funding solution, three funding sources will be utilized to restore the 26.6 FTE required to support a 5 of 7 period day schedule. Special Education Department carryover grant funds will offset 14 FTE that were initially budgeted within the Special Education general fund. An additional 9 FTE will be funded through secondary holdbacks, and the Board approved allocation of 3.6 FTE designated for zero-hour courses will support the remaining positions for the 2026/27 school year. FUNDING SOURCES: Funds are available in Secondary holdback and Secondary Special Education Instruction General Fund, facilitated by coordination with available Title VI-B carryover: SG/KJ/AR/KP/PM/JZ/cj Prepared by: Pamela Momany, Senior Director Special Education Instruction Joe Zawodny, Senior Director Middle School Education Katie Parrott, Senior Director Office of Management and Budget Approved by: Sven Gustafson, Deputy Superintendent Kersten Johnson, Deputy Chief of Schools Andy Ratliff, Chief Financial Officer File Attachments Motion & Voting Main motion as amended: To approve the temporary reinstatement of a seven-period academic schedule at the middle school level for the 2026/27 school year, as amended.

Consent Agenda (Carried Over From February 17, 2026) Type Action (Consent) Recommended Action To authorize the award of a contract for the purchase of networking equipment to World Wide Technology through the Organization for Educational Technology and Curriculum (OETC), with a combined award amount of $644,264.40. ANCHORAGE SCHOOL DISTRICT ANCHORAGE, ALASKA ASD MEMORANDUM #107 (2025-2026) February 24, 2026 TO: SCHOOL BOARD FROM: DR. JHARRETT BRYANTT, SUPERINTENDENT SUBJECT: AWARD OF CONTRACT: NETWORK EQUIPMENT ASD Core Value: The District will be open, transparent and accountable to the public. RECOMMENDATION: It is the administration’s recommendation that the Anchorage School Board authorize the award of a contract for the purchase of networking equipment to World Wide Technology through the Organization for Educational Technology and Curriculum (OETC), with a combined award amount of $644,264.40. PERTINENT FACTS: The District has a need to replace networking equipment that has reached or is nearing end of life. Network switches, routers, and wireless access points are critical to the core infrastructure and will improve the District’s security posture. The applications used by the District require more bandwidth. Replacing network equipment will increase internet capacity and assist with ensuring applications function with minimal disruptions to instruction. Board Policy 3311, AR 3311.1(d) INTERGOVERNMENTAL RELATIONS states “The Superintendent, or designee, may use, participate in, sponsor, conduct, or administer a cooperative purchasing program for the procurement of goods, services or construction with one or more public procurement units in accordance with an agreement entered into between the participants for the purpose of combining requirements to increase efficiency or reduce administrative expenses in the acquisition of goods and services. All intergovernmental agreements must be reviewed and approved by the Senior Director of Purchasing prior to submission to the Superintendent, or designee, for approval. Such cooperative purchasing may include, but is not limited to, joint or multi-party contracts between public procurement units, including use of local, state, or federal contracts. Except for contracts for architectural and engineering services, the Superintendent, or designee, may purchase from another public procurement unit’s contract.” OETC is a nonprofit membership organization providing cost-effective, cooperative technology purchases through a sealed, competitive bid process to negotiate contracts that abide by local and state procurement statutes in Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, California, Alaska, and Hawaii. The Anchorage School District has been a member since 1998. On November 17, 2021, OETC formally issued an Invitation to Bid (ITB) for networking equipment, software and services including E-Rate eligible, Category 2 technology and related services as a joint cooperative procurement on behalf of the public K-12 and higher education member institutions. The purpose was to identify and award contracts to provide volume price agreements and fulfillment services for the consortium members. Bid opening commenced on January 13, 2022. The resulting ITB authorized World Wide Technology, Fortinet, and Extreme Networks to sell to Alaska based on the contract award. On November 21, 2025, an E-Rate Mini-Bid was issued to World Wide Technology, Xiologix, Presidio and Extreme Networks. Mini-bid responses were received on December 8, 2025. The District intends to award the contract to World Wide Technology through the Cooperative with OETC Contract number OETC-22B-Networking effective February 8, 2022, thru February 6, 2028, with an option to renew for three additional years. The District will attach to the OETC contract with the same terms, conditions, and discount pricing structure. The Schools and Libraries Universal Service Program was established as part of the Telecommunications Act of 1996 with the express purpose of providing affordable access to telecommunications and internet services for eligible schools and libraries. The Program is referred to as “E-Rate.” The E-Rate Program provides discounts of 20 percent to 90 percent on telecommunications services (voice and data communications; i.e., data networks) and internet access, for eligible K-12 schools. The district typically receives discounts of 60 percent for eligible services. The District is leveraging the Service Provider Invoice (SPI) process to partially fund this purchase in the amount of $287,161.70. SPI providers file an FCC Form 474 with the Universal Service Administration Co. (USAC), to request reimbursement directly from USAC for the discounted amount for eligible services and equipment provided to the District; and approved on the District’s filing of a FCC Form 471. The SPI Provider must provide the service and/or equipment and only bill the District for its non-discount share before submitting an SPI Form to USAC. The remaining $357,102.70 of the contract will be funded through the General Expendable Equipment (01) Fund. By using the OETC contract and the Mini-Bid process, the District has ensured that the awarded contract will be E-Rate compliant.

Action Items Type Action Recommended Action To approve ASD Resolution #25-26-01(S.1) Directing the ASD Administration to Identify School Consolidation and Operational Efficiency Options to Preserve and Strengthen Student Academic Programs. ASDR# 25-26-01(S.1) A Resolution Directing the ASD Administration to Identify School Consolidation and Operational Efficiency Options to Preserve and Strengthen Student Academic Programs WHEREAS , the Anchorage School Board is responsible for adopting a balanced budget for submission to the Municipality of Anchorage by March 2nd, 2026, and for stewarding public resources in alignment with the District’s mission of preparing all students for success in life; and WHEREAS , the District is facing a structural operating deficit for fiscal year 2026-2027 of approximately $90 million, driven by sustained enrollment decline, extraordinary inflation that has reduced per-student purchasing power by approximately $1,400, and largely flat and unpredictable state education revenues; and WHEREAS , the District has projected that even after $90 million in reductions are made for the forthcoming year, continued flat funding from the State would mean that the District’s expected cost increases for medical and liability insurance and to salaries, benefits, services and supplies at rates higher than inflation will require the Board to confront additional budget shortfalls of $42 million in fiscal year 2027-2028 and $30 million in fiscal year 2028-2029; and WHEREAS , underutilized elementary school facilities, elementary schools with low enrollment levels, more heavily utilized elementary school facilities which enroll students in two separate academic programs at low levels in one or both programs, and small and/or underutilized secondary school facilities strain limited resources, are vulnerable to staffing instability, large or combination classrooms, and reductions in student services, and reduce the District’s ability to consistently provide robust academic programs and student support services across all schools; and WHEREAS , strategic consolidation for FY27 and beyond would allow resources to be combined to strengthen academic offerings, staffing models, and student supports; and WHEREAS , in November 2025, the Board declined to advance school consolidation proposals presented by the administration, reflecting the seriousness of such decisions and the importance of community considerations; and WHEREAS , since that time, updated financial information, increased community focus on preserving student programs, the urgency of the FY27 budget development process, and the administration’s long term fiscal projections have prompted the Board to reexamine whether previously analyzed consolidation options should be reconsidered and/or whether new options should be evaluated; and WHEREAS , the Board recognizes that although school consolidations and program relocations require thoughtful academic, operational, and equity analysis and that the current timeline necessitates substantial reliance on the most recent analyses conducted by the administration, the Board also recognizes that the administration may still be able to identify new opportunities to promote efficiencies and/or identify options for facility repurposing prior to its adoption of the FY27 Budget; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED , that the Anchorage School Board directs the Superintendent and administration to expeditiously identify school consolidation and related operational efficiency options that could improve academic service levels for students and generate short-term and long-term savings, including: 1. Previously analyzed school consolidation proposals presented to the Board in Fall 2025, recognizing the urgency of the current fiscal situation and the value of the most current research and analysis; 2. Additional near-term efficiency opportunities , including program relocations, special program consolidations, or co-locations that could yield savings while maintaining or strengthening academic quality; and 3. Options for facility repurposing , including leasing, co-location, or declaring facilities excess where appropriate, to support longer-term fiscal sustainability; BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED , that the administration’s analysis shall, to the extent feasible within the compressed timeline, address academic impact, service level changes, enrollment trends, transportation considerations, equity implications, and fiscal effects; BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED , that the Board requests identified options be posted publicly no later than February 14, 2026 and formally presented no later than February 17, 2026, recognizing the extraordinary time constraints associated with this request; BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that public feedback on any newly identified options or consolidation proposals would be accepted before or during the meeting on February 17, 2026, and that additional written feedback would be accepted prior to the special meeting scheduled for February 24, 2026; BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED , that the Board affirms its intent that any near-term savings realized through such actions be prioritized for reinvestment in direct student programs and services, including but not limited to academic supports, student activities & sports, and health services; and BE IT FINALLY RESOLVED , that the Board directs the administration to propose a process to develop a long-range school consolidation plan, informed by data and community engagement, to guide future decisions beyond the current budget cycle. ___________________________________ Carl Jacobs, School Board President Margo Bellamy Dave Donley Pat Higgins Andy Holleman Kelly Lessens Dora Wilson Please note original resolution ASDR#25-26-01 was not voted on (original resolution below): ASDR# 25-26-01 A Resolution Directing the ASD Administration to Identify School Consolidation and Operational Efficiency Options to Preserve and Strengthen Student Academic Programs WHEREAS , the Anchorage School Board is responsible for adopting a balanced budget for submission to the Municipality of Anchorage by March 2nd, 2026, and for stewarding public resources in alignment with the District’s mission of preparing all students for success in life; and WHEREAS , the District is facing a structural operating deficit of approximately $90 million, driven by sustained enrollment decline, extraordinary inflation that has reduced per-student purchasing power by approximately $1,400, and largely flat and unpredictable state education revenues; and WHEREAS , continued enrollment decline has resulted in underutilized school facilities that strain limited resources and reduce the District’s ability to consistently provide robust academic programs and student support services across schools; and WHEREAS , schools with persistently low enrollment are more vulnerable to staffing instability, combination classrooms, and reductions in student services, while strategic consolidation can allow resources to be combined to strengthen academic offerings, staffing models, and student supports; and WHEREAS , in November 2025, the Board declined to advance school consolidation proposals presented by the administration, reflecting the seriousness of such decisions and the importance of community considerations; and WHEREAS , since that time, updated financial information, increased community focus on preserving student programs, and the urgency of the FY27 budget development process have prompted the Board to reexamine whether previously analyzed consolidation options should be reconsidered; and WHEREAS , the Board recognizes that school consolidations and program relocations require thoughtful academic, operational, and equity analysis, and that the current timeline necessitates reliance on the most recent analyses already conducted by the administration; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED , that the Anchorage School Board directs the Superintendent and administration to expeditiously identify school consolidation and related operational efficiency options that could improve academic service levels for students and generate short-term and long-term savings, including: Previously analyzed school consolidation proposals presented to the Board in Fall 2025, recognizing the urgency of the current fiscal situation and the need to rely on the most current research and analysis; Additional near-term efficiency opportunities , including program relocations, special program consolidations, or co-locations that could yield savings while maintaining or strengthening academic quality; and Options for facility repurposing , including leasing, co-location, or declaring facilities excess where appropriate, to support lon
