# Regular Board meeting

The Klamath County School District Board held its regular meeting on August 11, 2026. The superintendent reviewed Oregon Senate Bill 141’s new accountability measures, including attendance and math metrics, interim assessments, and a district-selected career/workforce-readiness metric. The board also received the annual English learners report and reviewed proposed instructional-day reductions for eligible seniors and the Falcon Heights alternative program; the transcript does not capture a vote on those items.

Facilities maintenance was the main procurement and capital-project topic. Staff reported 25 projects completed by June 30, with a reported total of $2,769,485, and described additional projects underway or deferred because of budget constraints. A DCI project was reported at $6,675,012.75; the district recovered $54,853.96 from DCI, including $42,000 in liquidated damages. Other items included a Hemlock Roofing contract for Bonanza roofing, a $65,000 district match for the Burdickson playground, and approximately $29,641 in grant-funded Gilchrist culinary-room upgrades. The district authorized demolition of the failing food-service warehouse freezer and plans to price a replacement; staff cited a six-to-ten-week lead time for the new unit, with costs still to be determined. Staff also said they were exploring grant support for a long-term Lost River water solution. The board approved cooperative soccer participation for two Gilchrist students and reapproved payment for OSB legal-assistance coverage; no amount was stated for the latter. An agenda update added a screening-policy approval item, but its discussion or outcome is not included in the transcript.
