ESASD Regular Board Meeting (October 19)

The East Stroudsburg Area School District (ESASD) School Board held its regular meeting on October 19, 2026. The board approved the agenda and prior meeting minutes, adopted ten policies, and approved motions covering programs, personnel, finance, operations, volunteers, and an expulsion agreement. In the finance update, the committee reported that bids for consortium fuel and electricity procurement were under review, with the new price still pending; Google Workspace renewal and replacement of the Bushkill alarm system were also listed for consideration. The board approved the finance items as a group, with one member recorded as voting no on item E, identified in discussion as the energy-savings item. The transcript does not provide the itemized terms or dollar amounts for these ESASD finance approvals.

A separate MCTI board report noted approval of a fuel-oil vendor selection for the 2027–28 school year, subject to later approval by the Colonial IU Directors, and an agreement with the Pocono County Workforce Development Board for the Monroe County program from July 2026 through June 2027, not to exceed $36,000. Other discussion focused on student activities, assessment and enrollment trends, curriculum development, and committee reports. No additional ESASD contract awards or specific procurement amounts were identified.
