# Montgomery County Schools Board of Education Meeting - August 3rd, 2026

The Montgomery County Schools Board of Education held a meeting on August 3, 2026, focusing primarily on educational program updates and contract approvals. Key procurement discussions included the renewal of the I Ready universal screener contract for grades K-8, which supports personalized instruction and teacher resources, and the decision to continue using Amplify Desmos Math for K-5 students while discontinuing it for middle school due to cost and teacher feedback. The board also approved contracts for occupational therapy, speech language, and telepractice services. The proposed curriculum renewals and adjustments are projected to save the district over $80,000 compared to last year's expenditures. Additionally, the board discussed data supporting the effectiveness of these educational tools and emphasized alignment with state standards and teacher needs. A motion to approve the superintendent's contract was passed, officially appointing a new superintendent. The meeting concluded with plans to present a strategic plan for the district in October.
