# Monday, September 28th, 2026 - Pennridge SD School Board Meeting

The Pennridge School District Board held its regular meeting on September 28, 2026, covering a broad range of topics including personnel updates, facility improvements, curriculum enhancements, and student achievements. Key procurement-related discussions included the completion of the 2026 summer facility projects such as new roofs, boilers, hot water systems, generators, and temperature control improvements across multiple schools. The board approved several contract items and obsolete equipment disposals, including filing cabinets and keyboards. A significant focus was on the Upper Bucks County Technical School's contract with C and J Environmental, where the board discussed an independent investigation revealing serious safety and policy violations by the contractor, leading to a consensus to recommend contract termination and demand accountability from the technical school administration. Additionally, the board approved the first reading of a student discipline policy update incorporating restorative practices and approved the use of the Zello platform for college and career readiness. The meeting also included motions to approve various contracts and renewals, with finance and personnel committees reporting on ongoing staffing and budget matters. The board emphasized transparency and community engagement, particularly regarding the potential consolidation of South Middle School and the need for open communication during that process.
