October 27, 2026 - School Board Meeting

The Noblesville Schools Board of School Board meeting on October 27, 2026, included student and teacher recognitions and an academic excellence report. Administrators reported strong assessment results and described district efforts to align curriculum and intervention materials. A review of supplemental curriculum resources led to the cancellation of 15 subscriptions, saving approximately $94,000; the district said it will continue reviewing materials on an ongoing basis. No specific competitive solicitation or new vendor award was discussed.

The board approved the 2027 budget-related measures, including the bus replacement plan for 2027–2031, the capital projects expenditure plan, and a monthly transfer from the education fund to the operations fund. The budget assumes voter approval of the operating referendum, with the referendum rate capped at 38.5 cents; the planned fund transfer is about 7.8% of education-fund revenue. The board also approved insurance changes effective January 1, 2027: medical premiums increase 1.2%, dental premiums increase 3%, and vision premiums remain flat with a carrier change to IMED. Administrators cited a prior move from Anthem to UnitedHealthcare and a $20,000 reduction in the property-and-casualty renewal. A diesel-fuel price lock is in place through December, with the district to reassess the market afterward.
