Board of Education Meeting | November 9, 2026

Raytown Schools Board of Education meeting on November 9, 2026. The board considered roof work at Raytown High School with a stated not-to-exceed amount of $500,000 and a contractor transcribed as “Cornal Roofing.” A motion and second are audible, but the transcript does not clearly capture the vote outcome. The board also received a quarterly financial update: officials described a potential $4.8 million impact related to Jackson County tax matters, rising operating costs—including diesel at $5.31 per gallon compared with $2.624 the prior year—and concern that employee health-plan premiums could rise, with a preliminary estimate of 7–12%. The district plans continued quarterly budget reviews as it prepares the next budget. The consent agenda, including donations to schools and student accounts, was approved; listed contributions included a $1,183.26 Office Depot gift card and a $1,000 donation to Blue Ridge Elementary breakfast accounts.

Other discussion focused on student achievement, attendance, school progress plans, staffing, and community engagement. The board’s policy committee reported no recommended changes to public-comment policy BDDH. No other procurement awards or bid decisions were clearly identifiable in the transcript.
