**Jurisdiction:** SLED

The School District of Superior Committee of the Whole met September 9, 2026. The board approved an administration-recommended item involving Garland Company and a construction project; the project scope is unclear in the transcript. Discussion indicated that the work would proceed to a public bid process, including mandatory bidder meetings, and that it would be paid from previously saved funds rather than through a tax increase. The district also reported that two buses ordered in the spring are now in service. No purchase price or vendor for the buses was stated. Separately, the IT director reported that replacing elementary Windows laptops with Chromebooks is expected to save about $700 per unit across more than 1,500 devices; this was an update, not a new purchase approval.

The board approved August gifts, grants, and requests, and approved first readings of food-service policies, including policies on food service, civil-rights complaints, and competitive food sales. The district discussed a 4.96% online meal-payment service fee for families, with further communication planned and an agenda item requested for the next meeting. Members also discussed an estimated roughly $500,000 in annual E-rate funding eligibility and potential impacts if federal support is reduced; no funding decision was made. Preliminary revenue and expenditure figures and projected property-value changes were informational items, with no related spending vote identified.
