The Clovis Municipal Schools Board held a meeting on August 25, 2026, covering a variety of topics including student activities, academic programs, and district updates. Key procurement-related discussions included approval of a travel request for the FFA group to attend a national convention, and updates on the Starbase STEM program at Canon Air Force Base, which involves transportation and lunch provisions funded by the district. The board also approved a new fifth-grade math curriculum designed to better prepare students for algebra. Financial matters were discussed, highlighting a $9.7 million net decrease in cash due to expenditures exceeding revenues, mandated salary increases, and rising health insurance costs. Concerns were raised about uncertain state funding and reimbursement timing, which could impact future budgeting and procurement.
