The Westlake Board of Education held a work session on October 12, 2026. The Westlake Educational Foundation reported that since its 2020 reorganization it has awarded more than $92,000 in grants for student and classroom resources, including a CNC cutter, sensory equipment, library furniture, pottery wheels, a 3D printer, and coding technology. The foundation also described its car raffle, with a vehicle donated by Serpentini, as its largest fundraiser. The presentation was informational; the transcript records no board vote or procurement action related to these grants or purchases. Board members noted that the district has not raised an operating levy since 2006 and referenced community fundraising and capital-improvement campaigns.

District administrators presented the state report card, reporting an overall five-star rating and discussing student achievement, interventions, graduation rates, and college and career readiness. They described use of a data dashboard and support from the ESC, but no contract, vendor selection, amount, or spending approval was identified. The board also discussed a proposed e-bike ordinance and possible participation arrangements for hockey students from another district. The agenda was approved and the meeting adjourned; no other procurement decisions were identified.
