September 10, 2026 School Board Meeting Part 1

At the September 10, 2026 school board meeting, the board received a construction update: the grandstands and press box were complete, main power and fiber installation was underway, and excavation for the community building, parking lots, concession building, and locker room was progressing. The project team reported that soil testing had found no unsuitable material, leaving an allowance in the budget available for contingency or other project needs. Work planned for September included rebar, footings, and utility installation, with overall completion targeted for August 2027. The board also discussed minor corrections to the grandstands before final acceptance.

The board reviewed the results of an RFP for video boards, which drew 10 proposals and was narrowed to Musco, NEVCO, and Digital Scoreboards. For the high school package, quoted prices were $626,130 from Musco, $691,490 from Digital Scoreboards with basic software, $741,611 from NEVCO, and $743,430 from Digital Scoreboards with advanced software. Musco’s proposal included five years of software subscriptions and a 10-year parts-and-labor warranty; an optional stadium-lighting upgrade was discussed at $50,000. A Musco package covering all district buildings was quoted at $810,000, including one board at each elementary school. The recommendation was to focus on the high school project and continue evaluating lower-cost options for elementary and middle schools. Approximately $40,000 in fundraising commitments was reported, with further sponsorship discussions underway. No final award vote or approval is evident in the transcript excerpt; consent items, including the finance report and monthly bills, were listed but no vote result is captured.
