April 14 2026 Jordan School District Board of Education - Live Stream

The Jordan School District Board of Education held a meeting on April 14, 2026, which included significant discussions on procurement and budget-related matters. The board convened in closed session to act as an evaluation committee for a procurement solicitation. A major topic was the potential bond initiative to fund the construction of new field houses at each of the district's six high schools, estimated at $120 million total. Survey results showed mixed but generally favorable public support, with about 53% in favor. The board voted to proceed with focus groups to further research public opinion and communication strategies for the bond. Additionally, the board reviewed proposed price increases for school nutrition meals due to rising costs and decreasing federal reimbursements, approving a price increase expected to generate approximately $1.1 million in additional revenue. The meeting also covered calendar committee recommendations for the 2027-28 school year, with three calendar options presented for public survey and eventual board approval. Finally, the board discussed plans to produce educational videos to clarify school finance and property tax misconceptions for the public. Motions were passed to move forward with focus groups on the bond and to approve the meal price increases and related staffing adjustments.
