Lincoln County Board Meeting Live Stream

The Lincoln County Board of Education’s regular meeting was held October 27, 2026, at Harts PK-8. Procurement and facilities discussions included a reported $750,000 U.S. Department of Agriculture grant for telehealth and telecounseling equipment, including interactive televisions for K–2 classrooms, with equipment to be distributed across county schools. Students presented a proposed community walking trail and river access project, supported by approximately $3,000 in grant and fundraising resources; they asked the board to support clearing a pathway, rather than provide project funding. The superintendent also reported that equipment for the Duval project had been ordered and discussed completing inspections and sign-offs before the school gym could be occupied. The school principal identified an outdated camera system and an editable school sign as future needs, with funding still being explored for the camera system.

The board approved consent items A–C and E–J, authorized payment of bills, and approved policies for a 30-day review. It tabled consent item D after discussion of a proposed property reserve in the 90–110 range and a staff recommendation to set it at 90; members requested consideration of an independent appraisal before taking action. No contract award or purchase approval was identified in the discussion. A board member requested that a future agenda consider increasing the number of monthly board meetings.
