SACS School Board Meeting LIVE Feed June 16th, 2026 beginning at 6 p.m.

The SACS School Board held a meeting on June 16, 2026, focusing primarily on community engagement, strategic planning, and operational updates. Key procurement-related discussions included the recommendation to renew cooperative purchasing agreements for the 2026-27 school year with vendors such as HPS (group purchasing organization), Gordon Food Services (food produce, supplies, and small wares), Prairie Farms (milk), and Alpha Bakery (bakery and bread). This cooperative approach aims to leverage purchasing power and achieve cost savings on cafeteria food supplies and services. Additionally, the board discussed proposed meal pricing adjustments for the 2026-27 school year to offset rising food service costs, with paid lunch prices ranging from $2.50 to $3.50 depending on grade level and meal selection. These items were presented as discussion points and slated for approval at the next board meeting. The board also reviewed financial reports indicating stable fund balances and ongoing transfers between education and operations funds. No contract awards or new RFPs were announced during this session, but the renewal of cooperative purchasing contracts and meal pricing decisions represent significant procurement activities affecting vendor relationships and budget allocations.
