# Board Meeting

The Assumption Parish Schools Board Meeting held on September 16, 2026, included several procurement-related discussions and decisions. The board authorized the superintendent to explore alternative transportation options for early childhood students, including the potential purchase of vans instead of leasing buses, to address driver shortages and cost concerns. They also approved the replacement of HVAC units in the Pierre Part Elementary gym and the girls gym at Assumption High School, with plans to solicit proposals and possibly expedite the process if costs are below the bidding threshold. Additionally, the board discussed a resolution related to social media litigation but ultimately did not approve it due to concerns about potential additional costs. A significant contract signing was announced for a $3.5 million project with the airport museum, signaling a major capital improvement initiative. Other agenda items included budget updates and personnel approvals, but no further procurement actions were taken.
