Join us live for the OCSD November 2026 Board Meeting

The Orangeburg County School District Board meeting was called to order on November 10, 2026 (the metadata is dated November 11). The board approved the administration’s recommendation to purchase and install baseball and softball scoreboards at Bowman, North, HKT, Edisto, Lake Marion, and Branchville high schools, selecting Signs Unlimited. The transcript gives no contract amount. A vendor-spending presentation also cited approximately $13.881 million in minority- and women-owned business spending associated with the Howard Elementary project, though the transcript is unclear about the precise context. Howard construction was reported as progressing, with work continuing on inspections, interior finishes, kitchen systems, sidewalks, and playground turf; no new construction award was presented.

The board also approved an update to the district’s five-year strategic plan. Administrators outlined a planned pilot of the My Ride K12 transportation app, developed by Tyler Technologies, beginning in late November, with a districtwide rollout targeted for mid-December; this was presented as an implementation update, not a procurement vote. Other business included routine financial reporting and recognitions. No other procurement awards or spending motions were identified.
