Middletown BOE Combined Regular Work Session/Business Board Mtg 11/9/2026

The Middletown City Schools Board of Education’s combined regular work session/business meeting on November 9, 2026, included approval of two contracts. The board approved Bricker Graydon Wyatt LLP for finance-related legal services not provided by the district’s current attorneys, and approved Data Serve to assess district technology across its buildings, including Wi-Fi, access points, cabling, and technology-related billing. The Data Serve review is expected to take 60–90 days, with internet and Wi-Fi needs prioritized to inform an anticipated January E-Rate application. District staff said less than $1 million in E-Rate funds remains available; the program typically covers 90% of eligible costs, with the district responsible for 10%. The board approved both contracts; no contract prices were stated.

The board also reapproved the Middletown Teachers Association master agreement with changes, and discussed the finance committee’s plan to meet monthly to review financial reports and other matters, including investments and future district planning. Presentations recognized Creek View students’ participation in the Jim Tressel Fitness Challenge and students’ park-cleanup poster designs. No other specific procurement awards or capital-project approvals were identified.
