Morgan County School District Board Meeting February 9th, 2026

The Morgan County School District Board Meeting held on February 9, 2026, included a presentation on the procurement and use of translation devices purchased with $175,000 in newcomer funds to support equitable communication with families speaking multiple languages. The district acquired ISA Pro translation devices costing approximately $2,500 each, including three years of support and training, to be distributed across school buildings and the district office. Additionally, the board discussed a resolution to approve a site lease agreement with Bank of Colorado to borrow up to $2.5 million for capital improvement projects, including safe entry upgrades at Pioneer Elementary, basketball court renovations at the high school, and potential playground improvements. The funding strategy involves using designated capital construction funds and a community bond, ensuring no general fund money is diverted. Other topics included updates on career and technical education programs, community engagement, legislative advocacy, and staffing reports. No specific contract awards or vendor selections beyond the translation devices and financing resolution were detailed.
