Community Relations Committee Meeting - October 2026

The Ram Country TV Community Relations Committee meeting on October 12, 2026, covered RCTV programming, school communications, and technology updates. The committee accepted the prior meeting minutes. RCTV reported completing projector and microphone upgrades, including a laser projector in the learning center, six new microphones at the 5/6/7 campus, and portable Bose SL1 speaker-and-microphone units purchased with EITC funds for schools. The presentation also described replacing microphones in stages as older equipment or FCC frequency requirements necessitate; no costs, formal contract awards, or procurement votes were identified.

For future equipment needs, staff cited new cafeteria microphones and projection equipment at Limerick Elementary as a summer project, and began planning for a larger auditorium lighting and projection upgrade that may require the venue to close for two to three months. Other updates included the launch of RCTV apps and streaming access, ParentSquare communications reporting, and discussion of a possible state bell-to-bell cellphone restriction and ParentSquare’s direct-to-student messaging capability. No spending action was taken on these future projects.
