Nashua Board of Education Finance Committee 8/18/26

The Nashua Board of Education Finance Committee met on August 18, 2026, primarily to review and approve updates to various district policies, including those related to admissions, discrimination, harassment grievance procedures, data retention, and federal grant funding management. Significant discussion focused on the adoption of new and revised policies to ensure compliance with state and federal laws, particularly around federal grants management (policy DAF), which included clarifications on subrecipient monitoring and contract management. The committee approved several policy updates and recommended them for full board approval. There was also a detailed conversation about the complexities of Title IX coordination and grievance procedures, as well as data retention policies concerning special education records. No direct contract awards or vendor selections were discussed, but the federal grants policy updates could impact future procurement and contract management practices within the district.
