# DYRSD School Committee Meeting 9-14-26

The Dennis-Yarmouth Regional School District held a School Committee meeting on September 14, 2026, focusing primarily on updates related to finance, operations, and capital planning. The new Director of Finance and Operations provided an overview of the team's efforts to improve grant reporting, payroll, accounts payable processes, and long-range capital planning. A significant procurement-related update included the Emmy Small School feasibility study, which is currently out for bid with a designer selection process underway. The committee discussed the role of the Owner's Project Manager (OPM) in overseeing the feasibility study and the importance of adhering to Massachusetts School Building Authority (MSBA) requirements. Additionally, the committee approved the school committee mission statement and goals for the 2026-2027 year, which include fiscally responsible budgeting and support for curriculum initiatives. No specific contract awards or dollar amounts were approved during this meeting, but the groundwork for future capital projects and procurement activities was clearly established.
