Regular Board Meeting

The Grants Cibola County Schools Board held a regular meeting on June 17, 2026, focusing on several procurement and budget-related matters. The board discussed the selection process for strategic plan consultants, with multiple proposals reviewed and a plan to finalize the choice soon. They approved the annual mathematics textbook adoption, selecting the Savvas Envision Mathematics K-12 program based on rigorous standards alignment, cultural responsiveness, and professional development support. The board also approved the renewal of a Marzano professional development contract for $135,570.24 to continue in-house teacher training. A significant procurement decision was the approval of a food services agreement with Elior, selected through a state-guided RFP process emphasizing local sourcing and quality. Additionally, the board approved the purchase and installation of ADA-compliant playground equipment for Mesa View Elementary through a CES contract, funded by a capital bond. The meeting included policy updates related to digital communications and data systems, and the board approved a revised meeting calendar reducing regular meetings to once per month with flexibility for special sessions. Motions related to these procurements and budget items were passed unanimously or with majority support.
