MCCSC Board of School Trustees Regular Meeting - August 25, 2026

The Monroe County Community School Corporation Board of School Trustees held a regular meeting on August 25, 2026, focusing on several key procurement and budget-related topics. The board approved multiple contracts, including a listing agreement with CBRE for the sale of the old Herald Times building, a facilities master planning contract with CSO, and a construction management agreement with Skillman. These contracts support ongoing and future capital improvement projects, such as athletic facility upgrades and infrastructure enhancements including a solar canopy for electric bus charging. The board also authorized the advertisement of the 2027 budget, which includes adjustments for operational costs, referendum funds, and debt service, with an emphasis on financial sustainability amid demographic changes. Additionally, the board discussed the initiation of a 10-year facilities master plan to guide long-term capital planning and community engagement. A working session was approved to establish parameters for potential redistricting or restructuring to address socioeconomic disparities and enrollment shifts. Other agenda items included personnel approvals, policy reviews, and updates on school operations and communications. No specific dollar amounts for the contracts were disclosed in the transcript, but the meeting reflected a strong focus on strategic facility management and fiscal responsibility.
