School Board Meeting 10 28 2026

The WT Technology School Board meeting, titled “School Board Meeting 10 28 2026” (metadata timestamp: October 30, 2026), included approval of two project change orders to Skillman Davis Joint Venture: Change Order No. 3 for the JEL Career Center and Change Order No. 12 for North Central Phase 3. Their combined financial impact was $449,696, funded from existing referendum-project contingency funds rather than additional project funding. The board also considered issuing an RFP for specialized student transportation, including special education, McKinney-Vento, and other limited transportation needs. Members emphasized that the solicitation was for evaluating targeted contracted services, not outsourcing district transportation overall; the transcript does not clearly capture the RFP vote outcome.

Other actions included approval of the consent agenda, adoption of a revision to field-trip policy C500, and approval of proposed new high school courses for 2027–28; the latter two votes were 3–0. The policy change gives principals approval authority for day trips, while superintendent approval remains required for overnight trips. The board also received a first reading of a tentative teacher bargaining agreement following enrollment falling below the specified threshold; ratification was anticipated at a later meeting, and no approval was requested at this meeting. No other specific procurement awards or dollar amounts were identified.
