The Crown Point School Community Corporation held a regular business meeting and public hearing on September 28, 2026. The meeting included recognition of student achievements, such as the Crown Point High School VEX Robotics Team winning the 2026 Indiana State Championship and the Latin Club's multiple awards. A significant portion of the meeting focused on the 2027 budget and a proposed referendum to address funding shortfalls caused by state funding reductions and property tax changes under Senate Enrolled Act 1. The administration presented detailed financial data showing the need for increased local funding to maintain current educational and operational programs, including transportation, safety, and staffing. The board discussed the potential impacts if the referendum does not pass, including cuts to staff and programs. Several grant approvals were also voted on, including a $100,000 K-12 Robotics Competition Grant and an $86,000 Secured School Safety Grant. Additionally, the board approved an out-of-country field trip to Spain for high school students. Public comments addressed concerns about special education programs. The meeting concluded with board members expressing appreciation for the district's academic achievements and urging community support for the referendum to sustain school funding.
