Board of Education July Meeting

The MV Schools Social Board of Education held its July meeting on September 21, 2026, focusing primarily on academic performance and financial updates. The board reviewed the district's recent report card, highlighting strong achievements such as a 4.5-star district rating, improved graduation rates from 92% to 97%, and significant gains in college, career, workforce, and military readiness (CCWMR) from 40% to 76%. Discussions included strategies to strengthen literacy, math, and attendance, as well as replicating successful practices across schools. Financially, the board examined the August fiscal report, noting a $500,000 true-up payment to the Educational Service Center (ESC), increased purchase services and supplies expenditures due to curriculum purchases, and challenges with property tax revenue timing affecting cash flow. The board approved fiscal service items including "then and now" purchase approvals for expenditures over $3,000 made prior to purchase orders. Additionally, the board approved participation of two homeschool students in athletics and classified staff appointments. No new capital improvement projects or vendor contracts were discussed. The meeting concluded with acknowledgments of staff efforts and a reminder about an upcoming levy vote.
