NFCSD Board of Education Meeting - 11/12/2026

The NFCSD Board of Education held an agenda review meeting on November 12, 2026, opening with a presentation on the district’s Universal Prekindergarten program. Staff described its expansion, curriculum, and family engagement, and reported nearly $2.5 million in additional UPK foundation aid to support services and staffing. Board members also discussed needs among exceptional learners, including training for special education associates; the superintendent said the district would advocate for additional support during budget season.

The agenda review included several contracts and funding items, but the transcript does not record final votes. Items discussed included Rapids Bowling Center for varsity bowling ($7,750), hockey practice ice and games ($13,000), a HUD-funded tutoring and AIS program ($35,000), a mentor teacher internship program ($51,000), and Niagara Community Center services ($12,000). A $70,000 Greenway-funded proposal for the student environmental program was described as requiring subsequent Greenway Commission and host-community approval. The district also discussed an elevator services bid with no change in cost or service and OSHA 10 training for construction-trades students, with the amount unclear in the transcript.
