Board of Education Public Work Session - Thursday, October 22, 2026 at 7PM

The Rockville Centre Board of Education held a public work session on October 22, 2026. The main procurement-related item was Purchasing Policy 5410: the board reviewed proposed clarification to align the policy with a recent change in law concerning piggybacking, including its use for capital infrastructure work. District representatives said existing practice was compliant and the revision would update the policy language; the item is to move to stage two at the next meeting. No contract awards, vendor selections, spending amounts, or budget approvals were reported.

The board also received an update on a multi-year elementary report-card revision process, with BOCES expected to assist with report-card design; no related contract or expenditure was discussed. An artificial-intelligence policy remained at stage one while the district gathers feedback and develops implementation practices. The session also included student and staff presentations on learning and instruction.
