The May 19, 2026, regular meeting of the My Lebo School Board focused extensively on instructional technology integration across the district. Presentations highlighted the strategic use of technology as a tool to enhance learning, emphasizing developmentally appropriate and intentional application rather than technology for its own sake. The board reviewed current technology policies, digital citizenship education, and safety measures including AI use guidelines and web filtering. Budget discussions included a detailed breakdown of the $850,330 software budget supporting both staff and students, with plans to transition second graders from Chromebooks to iPads and to continue professional development for educators. Additionally, the board approved revisions and adoptions of several policies related to discrimination, harassment, dress code, and student participation in extracurricular activities. The meeting also included reports on grants totaling nearly $15,000 for professional development and technology initiatives, and updates on community engagement and capital projects. No new contract awards or vendor selections were reported during this session.
