The district's Board of Education will gather at 7 p.m. Wednesday at Lovonya DeJean Middle School, 3400 Macdonald Ave. in Richmond.
The main item on the agenda is a discussion by the board of the various school bond sales the district has engaged in since 1998 to rebuild school facilities.

The discussion will range from qualified school construction bonds to the capital appreciation bonds that were detailed two weeks ago in a story on El Cerrito Patch.
The board will also discuss whether to hire a full-time construction architect for the Portola Middle School construction project. The Measure J bond project is currently in the bid process.
