Newberg Dundee Board Meeting 9.29.26

Newberg Public Schools board meeting, titled September 29, 2026 (meeting metadata dated September 30). The consent agenda passed unanimously and included a donation from Mabel Rush Partners in Education for a library TV replacement, a second reading of policy K and A, and prior meeting minutes. A school report described bond-funded building work, including roof repairs, a more secure office entrance, and improved courtyard access; the district also reported more than $3 million in roof and building repairs during fiscal 2026. The district-developed student dismissal system avoided an estimated $1,000 purchase cost. No contract or vendor award was presented.

The board discussed postponing the social studies curriculum adoption by one year so elementary and high school reviews can be completed; the district plans to present options and finish adoption by the end of the academic year, with funds set aside from bond interest for an anticipated order beginning July 1. Finance staff reported an unaudited 2026 year-end fund balance of $542,000, below the $1 million budget projection, and said the district is continuing reductions and close monitoring of spending. The board unanimously approved the 2026–27 budget calendar and superintendent and board goals; no other major procurement approval was identified.
