3-25-2026 Governing Board Meeting

The Tempe Elementary School District Governing Board held a meeting on March 25, 2026, where they approved the agenda, minutes from previous meetings, and the consent agenda. A significant procurement-related discussion involved the approval to sell the remaining $17 million from the November 2022 bond issuance, primarily to fund the construction of the Curry and Connelly schools. Board members clarified that bond funds are restricted to physical infrastructure projects and cannot be used for salaries. Additionally, the board approved revisions to the fiscal year 2024-2025 budget to reallocate expenses outside the grant period to allowable funds. The meeting also included the adoption of changes to the board policy on audits and financial monitoring. No new contracts or vendor selections were detailed, but the bond sale and budget amendments represent key procurement and capital improvement activities.
