# (Livestream) Corvallis School Board Meeting 9/24/2026

The Corvallis School Board meeting on September 24, 2026, included a presentation on a downtown vitality strategy, a district summer-program update, a joint work session with the Corvallis Public Schools Foundation, and policy action. The downtown task-force presenter shared recommendations concerning safety, vacant storefronts, accessibility, public spaces, housing, and infrastructure, and asked the district to consider future collaboration. A possible downtown urban renewal district funded through tax-increment financing was discussed, including potential effects on taxing districts, but the board made no funding decision. The summer-program presentation mentioned support from the LBCC STEMHub and paid student work experiences; the Foundation reported community sponsorships and educator grants, including 39 grants at a back-to-school event and 21 resource grants distributed so far. No district procurement, contract award, or purchasing decision was identified.

The board amended policy KNA to require notices to be provided in all supported languages, then voted to approve the amended policy and AR2 as presented. Board members discussed concerns about unclear language in AR1 related to responding to federal immigration authorities, but the transcript does not show an action to approve AR1. The meeting also included an acknowledgement of LGBTQI2S+ History Month and discussion of community engagement. No procurement-related motions or spending approvals were recorded.
