The Hudson School Board meeting on November 9, 2026, included approval of consent items authorizing payment of $553,229.82. The board also discussed a proposed high school track replacement by Fisher Tracks, with a base cost of about $290,000 from the capital improvement fund. Optional color upgrades would add $21,519 for a full sapphire-blue track, $28,545 for blue relay exchange zones on a black track, or about $33,000 for gray exchange zones. No vote on the track proposal was recorded: board members requested photos and more information about the existing and proposed track materials, and staff planned to arrange a site visit and bring the item back for action, potentially at the December meeting. The work is expected to take place after the 2027 school year, and the discussed pricing was time-limited.

The board also received updates on district transportation, including operations with contractor Safeway, and heard school and athletics presentations. A Hudson Prairie PTO fundraiser raised $45,000 for playground enhancements; this was community fundraising, not a district procurement. No other contract award or purchasing decision was identified.
