📚 Education Grants & Funding

The Harrisburg School District Board meeting on October 13, 2026, included discussion of the FY2027 special education levy. Administrators said the submitted levy request was updated after the state’s document was found to be two cents lower than the Department of Education’s figure; the discussion also noted a separate Lincoln County sales-tax reduction for owner-occupied property. No levy vote or specific spending authorization was reported. The board reviewed fiscal-stewardship planning, including upcoming enrollment, growth and development, capital-outlay, and general-fund reports, but no related contracts or purchases were approved.

The board voted 5–0 to authorize the superintendent to work with South Dakota Partners in Education toward a partnership with a recognized scholarship-granting organization (SGO) for a Harrisburg-specific program. The motion was an initial step to pursue discussions, not approval of a contract; an agreement or MOU and further details would return to the board. The meeting also discussed possible future handbook language on Meta smart glasses, including privacy and assistive-technology considerations, with no purchase decision. No contract awards or other procurement activity were identified.
