CCSD BOE Business Meeting CES Cafetorium, Sep 28, 2026 at7:00 pm

The Cornwall School District Board of Education business meeting, identified in the title as September 28, 2026, included external and internal audit reports and a presentation on school-bus stop-arm cameras. EFPR Group reported a clean external audit, with no material weaknesses, significant deficiencies, or compliance issues; the federal grant-compliance report remained in draft pending federal guidance. The board approved the 2025–26 internal auditors’ report. Its facilities-use review recommended moving payments online to reduce handling of cash and checks, and the district said it had already purchased a payment system through ParentSquare. The auditors also noted that the school lunch program’s fund balance exceeded the state threshold and that the district should plan qualifying expenditures, including possible cafeteria equipment needs.

Orange County officials and West Point Tours presented the BusPatrol camera program, which they said could equip about 80 district buses at no direct cost to the district, with program costs covered by violation revenue. Board members discussed the vendor’s revenue-sharing and fee arrangements, evidence review, installation process, and safety data. No procurement decision or vote on the camera program was taken; the board said it would place the matter on a future agenda for discussion and a vote. The board also reviewed the student-attendance policy for a first reading and discussed clarifying its relationship to the grading policy; no final policy adoption was reported.
