APSB Regular Meeting 9.1.26

The Ascension Public Schools Board held a regular meeting on September 1, 2026, covering a variety of topics including student athlete participation in LSU health research, program presentations, financial reports, job description approvals, and multiple out-of-state field trip approvals. Key procurement-related discussions involved contract amendments recommended by the mainland committee, approval of an energy rightway agreement at Central School, and insurance renewals including casualty, liability, drone, and cyber insurance with noted cost changes. The board also reviewed financials showing revenues and expenditures variances for July 2026 and discussed compliance with local government budget requirements. Several job descriptions for educational and administrative positions were approved, and multiple field trips for academic and extracurricular teams were authorized. No new contract awards or RFPs were explicitly mentioned, but the meeting included motions and approvals related to ongoing contracts and insurance coverage renewals, which impact future procurement activities.
