Governance and Policy ResourcesResearch, guidance and services for effective school board governance

As the 2025–26 state budget takes shape, CSBA's education budget resources page will help board members stay informed, communicate with local stakeholders about important developments and advocate for the funding California schools need to educate and support students during challenging financial times.

The expiration of federal pandemic relief funding and uncertain revenues at the state level could affect curriculum, programming, staffing, operations and facilities at the local school district and county office of education level. Staying up to date on state budget negotiations and the potential impact on local educational agencies is imperative. CSBA will provide the resources and tools trustees need to stay informed, stay in the fight for full and fair school funding and keep students, families, staff and community engaged on this important issue.

This page will be updated as the budget season continues.
