Agenda was originally the plural of Latin agendum (thing to be done) and is still considered by some to be a plural form.

In modern English; however, agenda is usually considered as the singular form with agendas the plural: "What is on the agenda for the meeting?" "The secretary kept track of the two executives’ agendas."

Things to be done, memoranda of items to be considered at a meeting. Agenda was plural in form in the original Latin, but now is often used as a singular in English, in the sense of "list"; and followed by a singular verb.
