09/14/2026 CWLS Board Meeting

The Canal Winchester Local Schools Board of Education held a regular business meeting on September 14, 2026. The meeting included presentations on educational programs such as the high school's student-run print shop, which has grown significantly and generated profits while providing students with real-world business experience. Financial updates were provided, including discussions on property tax reform reimbursements from the state, which have been complicated by statewide overpayments and underpayments affecting many districts. The board reviewed budget appropriations for the fiscal year 2026-2027 and approved private tuition contracts for special education placements. Additionally, the board discussed the draft calendar for the 2027-2028 school year, including staff workdays, student start dates, and breaks. No new contracts or procurement awards were announced, but financial management and budget forecasting were key topics. The meeting concluded with a motion to enter executive session to discuss security and emergency response protocols.
