The board approved the appointment of Whistler Pearlstein LLP as the district solicitor for a five-year term following a request for proposal (RFP) process, highlighting the district's professional services policy requiring periodic competitive selection. They also authorized advertising for bids for the 2026-27 spring athletics equipment. Capital improvement projects were discussed, including the approval of chiller plant replacements at North Wales and York Avenue elementary schools with a budget of $196,911, part of a grant-supported initiative. Additionally, the board approved the creation of a new bank account at Unvest Bank to manage escrow funds related to a tax assessment appeal. Financial reports and invoice approvals were also conducted, with no opposition to motions.
