BPS Board Meeting - 7/15/2026

The Buffalo Public Schools Board meeting on July 15, 2026, focused primarily on leadership transitions and community concerns rather than direct procurement actions. The board formally accepted the resignation of Superintendent Dr. Pascal Mbangue and appointed Dr. Ebony E. Prophet Bullock as interim superintendent to ensure district stability. Public speakers expressed concerns about declining enrollment, funding impacts, and the quality of coaching staff, urging the board to negotiate contracts that allow for hiring the best coaches regardless of teaching status. The board also approved a resolution to settle pending litigation with a payment not to exceed $30,000. No specific contract awards, RFPs, or capital improvement projects were discussed or approved during this meeting.
