The board reviewed plans for sustaining new positions funded by one-time grants, discussed budgeting strategies to align spending with strategic goals, and highlighted investments in instructional coaching and technology initiatives. No formal contract awards or vendor selections were reported, but the session emphasized fiscal responsibility, grant compliance, and mission-based budgeting to support educational outcomes and staff retention. The meeting concluded with procedural announcements and a motion to adjourn.
