•Considering a school board meeting change, from Oct. 13 (Tuesday) to Oct. 12 (Monday), and doing away with Oct. 27 meeting.
•Appointing new architects for those projects eligible for state funding.
•Looking into possible solutions for future growth in the southwest Stockton community of Weston Ranch.
