October 26, 2026 - Discussion Agenda & Adjournment

At the October 26, 2026 LexRich5 Board meeting, the board discussed outreach for a third-party survey, including concerns that its Peach Jar email subject line may limit responses. The administration was asked to contact Dr. Armstrong for an update, and the board supported trying social media outreach and reviewing response numbers at a future meeting.

The board considered a solicitation for therapeutic day services to support students with intensive behavioral and mental-health needs. The proposed provider would supply trained staff; the administration said funding was available in the existing academics budget, with no additional funding requested. A board member noted the prior program had cost more than $1 million two years earlier. Members requested further information on student eligibility, program outcomes, alternatives, and costs. The board voted 7–0 to direct the administration to issue a solicitation for therapeutic day services; any responsive bidder would return to the board for approval, so no contract award was made at this meeting.
