The Stratford Public Schools Board of Education held a meeting on August 25, 2026, focusing on various administrative and policy updates. Key procurement-related discussions included the preparation for a food service management Request for Proposal (RFP) process, with the district working alongside a consultant to initiate the process once state forms are released. Additionally, the board approved a 10-cent increase in school lunch prices following a USDA-mandated paid equity review. The board also approved several state-mandated policy updates related to non-discrimination and sexual harassment, waiving the second reading to implement them promptly for the new school year. There was no mention of new contract awards or capital improvement projects, but ongoing collaboration with vendors such as Sodexo for food service was noted. The meeting also covered student representative roles, transportation policy adjustments without fiscal impact, and grant approvals for family resource center programs.
