The Board of Directors regular meeting on October 26, 2026, included approval of the consent agenda, which covered personnel recommendations, payroll vouchers, district reconfiguration items, and turf-field and track change orders at North Taps Middle School. The board heard that the field had received a final walk-through, with a few minor corrections remaining within the expected scope and budget. It also approved an updated facility-use fee schedule, with general rates effective November 1, 2026, and turf-field rates effective January 1, 2027; reservations were expected to open once remaining site work and signage were completed. The board approved a set of policies, including policies on construction financing, funds and accounts, insurance, and instructional-material selection and adoption.

The board also approved several donations and grants. The Dear Education Foundation presented four grants, including $875 for a classroom field trip and $5,000 for a middle-school student activity center and game room; the transcript did not clearly capture the amounts for the robotics and schoolwide science grants. The Names Family Foundation donation was $7,500 for each elementary school for gym and sports equipment. The PTA grant agreement provided $8,950 to each elementary school, including allocations for families in need, field trips, library support, and playground needs. These items were approved by board vote. The district also reported continued planning for school reconfiguration and discussed community access to the new turf facility; no new district procurement award or contract vendor selection was identified.
