The Natrona County School District Board of Trustees held a meeting on September 28, 2026, primarily focused on recognizing student achievements and addressing community concerns. Key procurement-related discussions included the acceptance of several grants: a $15,000 award from the Wyoming Department of Education for a College and Career Ready Lab at Dean Morgan Middle School, and three cybersecurity grants totaling $394,173 from the Wyoming Department of Homeland Security, funded by FEMA, to enhance network security infrastructure. The board approved these grants with no strings attached other than completion and confirmation of purchases within two years. Additionally, the board reviewed and approved consent agenda items including personnel reports, district bills, and an $85,000 out-of-state special education student placement. Public comments highlighted concerns about scheduling conflicts affecting the Kelly Walsh Girls Swim and Dive team, which the board pledged to investigate. Policy discussions included academic ethics and the use of artificial intelligence in schools, with ongoing public input sought. No new contracts or capital projects were discussed, but the grants and budget approvals represent significant procurement activity for the district.
