The Montgomery Public Schools Board held a special call meeting on July 30, 2026. The board discussed a request to approve a quote for Yondr cell-phone pouches and expedite delivery so they could be in schools by approximately August 10, ahead of the 2026–27 school year. Members asked how the pouches would be inventoried and tracked, and discussed the plan to discontinue their use after this school year. No dollar amount or vendor contract details were provided, and the transcript does not clearly identify whether the pouch request was included in the consent agenda, which the board approved unanimously. The board also heard a proposal to rename Dala Elementary School as Dala STEAM Magnet Academy; no vote on the name change is captured in the transcript.

The board unanimously approved a charter school funding agreement, the certified personnel report, and its certified-personnel addendum. It also received the superintendent’s evaluation for July 2025–June 2026, with an overall average of 4.38 out of 5 (87.5%). The board entered executive session to discuss potential litigation; officials stated that no votes would be taken during that session. No other specific procurement amounts or contract numbers were mentioned.
