KSD School Board Meeting: April 8, 2026

The Kennewick School District held a school board meeting on April 8, 2026, which included a detailed report on the district's transportation services and staff human resources. The transportation report highlighted the district's fleet management, including plans to reduce bus purchases from nine to seven due to changes in state depreciation schedules, and the implementation of new routing software and a parent app to improve communication and efficiency. The human resources report focused on staff recruitment, retention, professional development, and evaluation processes, including the adoption of an electronic evaluation platform called Pivot. No specific contract awards, RFPs, or procurement decisions were discussed during the meeting. The board also received updates on school improvement initiatives and facility audio/security enhancements. An executive session was scheduled to address legal issues, but no procurement-related votes or motions were recorded in the public portion of the meeting.
