2026-05-20 | Regular Board Meeting

The Taylor School District held a regular board meeting on May 20, 2026, focusing on various educational and extracurricular updates. Key procurement-related discussions included approval of cooperative agreements for Career and Technical Education (CTE) programs, the introduction of an Advanced Placement (AP) Cyber Security course supported by an $800 grant for teacher professional development, and the adoption of the UFly phonics program for K2 classrooms to complement existing literacy curricula. The board also reviewed and approved a three-year lease agreement with the Taylor Seahawks Little League Football for use of district athletic fields, clarifying maintenance responsibilities. Additionally, the district renewed its insurance coverage with SET SEG at a negotiated rate of $376,430, significantly lower than previous years. The board supported the 2026-2027 Wayne RESA general fund operating budget and discussed scheduling for future meetings. No new contracts or vendor selections beyond these items were reported, but the meeting included important policy and budget decisions affecting future procurement and program implementation.
