August 10, 2026 - Discussion Agenda & Adjournment

The August 10, 2026, LexRich5 Board meeting included a review of space in the current district office and the new professional administration building. Staff estimated the new building would add about 273 square feet of office space (less than 1%) while increasing office seating by about 5%. The plan would eliminate portables and bring staff currently working at district and school locations back to the district office; vacated spaces may be repurposed, but options have not yet been assessed. The board also asked about the future of the existing district office, including its condition and how much of the building would remain. No project cost, contract, vendor, procurement decision, or spending vote was identified.

The board received a brief overview of an eight-day 2026 Instructional Leadership Accelerator pilot, with virtual, in-person, and job-shadowing components; no funding amount or purchasing action was discussed. Members also reviewed proposed revisions to the paid parental leave policy to reflect state law, including adding stillbirth as a qualifying event and increasing leave for a non-birthing parent from two weeks to four. The revisions are to be prepared for first reading at the next meeting, ahead of the law’s October 1 effective date. No motions or votes were reported in the transcript.
