RRPS - School Board Meeting - September 28, 2026

The Rio Rancho Public Schools Board of Education held a meeting on September 28, 2026, which included several procurement and budget-related discussions. Key procurement activities included the approval of a first amendment to the lease agreement for office space at the Amrep Building, extending the lease for three years with a 3% annual rent increase, and the approval of the 2026-2027 Preventive Maintenance Plan aligned with Public School Facilities Authority (PSFA) requirements.
