September Jericho Board of Education Meeting 9-24-26

The Jericho Board of Education held a meeting on September 24, 2026, focusing primarily on educational updates, community engagement, and financial oversight. A significant procurement-related highlight was the announcement of secured state funding to launch a new clinical healthcare program, which will include purchasing interactive medical mannequins, stretchers, patient monitors, and other simulation equipment to provide hands-on learning experiences for students interested in healthcare careers. The board also received and accepted the district's external audit report from Colin Danowski LLP, which showed sound financial management with revenues of approximately $141.7 million and expenditures of $141.9 million, including a $4.7 million transfer to capital reserves for ongoing facilities and field renovations. The board approved motions to fund reserves with surplus monies and discussed ongoing capital improvement projects. No new contracts or vendor selections were detailed, but the financial and programmatic updates indicate active investment in educational infrastructure and resources.
