RRPS - School Board Meeting - July 13, 2026

The Rio Rancho Public Schools Board of Education held a regular meeting on July 13, 2026, where several procurement and budget-related items were addressed. The board approved Resolution 2026-002 to participate in a capital outlay program administered by the New Mexico Department of Transportation, reaffirming their commitment to infrastructure funding. They also approved professional services contracts related to student wellness and prevention programs funded by a $20,000 grant from Sandoval County for Independence High School. Additionally, the board approved multiple procurement actions including awarding an RFP for painting contractor services to four vendors to ensure on-demand painting services, and awarding a contract for refuse and recycling services to the incumbent vendor, Roadrunner Waste Services Incorporated. These actions reflect ongoing efforts to support school facility maintenance and student health initiatives. The board also discussed policy changes related to student disciplinary appeals, aiming to streamline processes by delegating appeal decisions to the superintendent or a designate, which may impact future administrative procedures but did not involve direct procurement decisions.
