# Thursday, September 17, 2026 Governing Board Meeting

The PVSchools Governing Board held a meeting on September 17, 2026, which included several procurement-related discussions and approvals. Key agenda items included the approval of the School Facilities Oversight Board Capital Plan and Preventative Maintenance Plan for fiscal year 2027, reflecting ongoing commitments to facility upkeep and capital improvements. The board also approved a memorandum of understanding with the Arizona Sustainability Alliance to implement the Sew It Forward initiative, providing indoor tower gardens to Title I schools, with initial equipment funded by the program and future maintenance costs to be borne by the district. Additionally, the board accepted gifts and donations totaling approximately $15,000 to support various schools and student needs. A significant portion of the meeting was dedicated to a detailed presentation of the 2026 summer construction projects funded by bond initiatives, covering upgrades such as flooring, HVAC replacements, painting, playground improvements, kitchen modernization, roofing, LED lighting, fencing, and signage across multiple school sites. The total expenditure for these projects was approximately $33.8 million, with $32.3 million from bond funds and over $631,000 from a state building renewal grant. The board expressed gratitude to the community for supporting bond measures that enable these capital improvements. The meeting concluded with a reminder of the next regular meeting date and a unanimous vote to adjourn.
