SCCS Board of Education -- 05/13/2026

The Swartz Creek Board of Education held a meeting on May 13, 2026, which included presentations from the robotics team and discussions on administrative staffing and budget approvals. Key procurement-related discussions involved the review and approval of the Genesee Intermediate School District (GISD) 2026-27 budget, which passed with a 5-2 vote. The board also discussed the potential elimination of the deputy superintendent position to reduce administrative costs, estimating savings of nearly $200,000 annually, with the new superintendent tasked to evaluate staffing needs and bring recommendations back to the board. Additionally, the board addressed procedural issues related to a leave of absence extension for a staff member, deciding to postpone approval pending further investigation. The board authorized the new superintendent to enter negotiations with all collective bargaining units for the current contract cycle. No new contracts or vendor selections were reported during this meeting.
