The Los Angeles County Department of Education has put Claremont Unified School District on notice: tighten up your budget or face “difficult decisions.” The news came during Assistant Superintendent of Business Services Desiree Reyes’ presentation of CUSD’s second interim budget report at the March 19 Board of Education meeting, and on the heels of the December 2025 announcement that CUSD’s budget deficit estimate had ballooned to $11.49 million. Board member Kathryn Dunn and Clerk Cheryl Fiello are pictured here at the meeting. Courier photo/Andrew Alonzo
