Board Meeting 3/12/2026

The Port Angeles School District Board meeting on March 12, 2026, focused primarily on educational program updates and budget planning. Key procurement-related discussions included the presentation of inclusion grants from OSPI aimed at improving educational outcomes for students with disabilities, with a four-year grant supporting professional development and instructional improvements. The board also reviewed enrollment trends and budget projections for the 2026-27 school year, noting declining student numbers and the impact on funding. A motion was passed to approve the budgeted full-time equivalent (FTE) number of 388 for the upcoming year. Additionally, updates on three ongoing capital improvement projects, including new school buildings, were provided, with plans to bring a general contractor contract for approval at the next meeting. These projects are expected to support enrollment growth and community engagement. No specific vendor names or contract amounts were disclosed beyond the grant funding context.
