The Broken Arrow Public Schools Board of Education held a meeting on July 13, 2026, where key procurement and budget-related matters were discussed. The board approved employment contracts for the superintendent and deputy superintendent for upcoming fiscal years. Financial reports were presented, showing activity fund balances and treasurer's reports with significant invested assets.

A change order of $4,701 was approved for Mammoth Sports Construction related to turf replacement repairs at Memorial Stadium. An emergency declaration was approved to expedite furniture replacement in classrooms damaged by storm water intrusion, with costs near the $100,000 insurance threshold but not covered by insurance.
