Negotiations 24-25

All Ventura Unified School District's (VUSD) educational community members are respected and appreciated by our administration, students, and families. VUSD's ability to recruit and retain highly qualified and motivated individuals (many of whom are our VUSD graduates) directly impacts the students in our schools. We are vested in maintaining a dedicated and talented workforce of educators and support professionals, and we appreciate that the Ventura Unified Education Association (VUEA) and the Ventura Education Support Professionals Association (VESPA) are just as dedicated to the future success of our students.  

Each year the budget must receive a positive certification by the Ventura County Office of Education. Ventura Unified School District (VUSD) is required, by the state, to account for the next three years when negotiating. When we negotiate this year, we must do so planning through the 2026-27 school year. 

VUSD has been significantly impacted by several years of declining enrollment, lower than normal attendance, and loss of one-time funding. This has led to a need for the District to make budget reductions. We remain committed to transparency and will keep you informed as we navigate this process together.
