July 27th, 2026: SHCSC Board Meeting Part 2

The South Harrison Community School Corporation held a board meeting on July 27, 2026, focusing extensively on school nutrition services, budget status, and ongoing capital improvement projects. The food service director provided updates on USDA regulations affecting school meal programs, including new smart snack fundraiser allowances and non-domestic food purchase caps. Financial challenges were discussed, highlighting a current negative balance of approximately $270,000 in the food service account, partly due to snow and e-learning days impacting revenue. The board was informed about plans to write off about $2,000 in uncollectible negative meal balances. Capital projects updates included roofing repairs at Cordon Intermediate School, new canopies at South Central Elementary, LED lighting and painting in various schools, and athletic storage building renovations. The board also discussed upcoming budget hearings and staffing transitions. No specific contract awards or vendor selections were detailed, but references to bids and quotes for construction and equipment projects were noted, including a driveway widening project with a $50,000 bond requirement. The meeting concluded with a motion to adjourn passed unanimously.
