Regular BOE Meeting - June 9th, 2026

The Middletown Stream Board of Education held a regular meeting on June 9, 2026, focusing on various district operational updates and concerns. Key procurement-related discussions included updates on facilities management, such as the ongoing Mcdana School construction project where a subcommittee was formed to review construction manager bids, with bids due June 18, 2026. The facilities committee's meeting frequency was debated, resulting in a motion passed to hold monthly meetings to better manage the extensive repair and maintenance needs, including a $70 million backlog of repairs and environmental compliance projects like the Moody Oil Tank removal. Budget reports highlighted a modest surplus and noted increased expenditures in special education transportation and tuition due to additional outplacements. The board also discussed staffing and human resources updates, including internal and external postings for key administrative positions and ongoing efforts to improve onboarding and retention. No specific contract awards or vendor selections were detailed, but the meeting emphasized budget management, capital improvement projects, and operational efficiencies. A future meeting on June 15 was noted for potential contract review and vote related to the local union agreement.
