# CCPS BOE Meeting | 08-04-2026

The Carteret County Public Schools Board of Education held a regular meeting on August 4, 2026. Key procurement-related discussions included the approval of the consent agenda with an emphasis on adding statutory compliance clauses such as Jessica Lunsford clauses and insurance requirements to contracts. The board also approved the initial budget resolution for the 2026-2027 school year, covering local, state, federal, capital, and child nutrition funds, totaling over $100 million combined. Additionally, the board recognized the district's energy efficiency efforts, which resulted in over $314,000 in combined financial value from Duke Energy incentives and cost savings. A capital improvement project, the East Carter High School locker room renovation, was approved with bids coming in lower than expected, allowing the project to commence promptly. Policy revisions related to student attendance and conduct were also approved, which may impact future vendor services related to counseling programs. The meeting concluded with a motion to move into closed session for an attorney-client matter.
