# Board of Education Meeting August 12, 2026

The Belton School District Board of Education meeting was held August 12, 2026. The board approved the consent agenda, horizontal advancements as presented, and a change to the September meeting date from September 9 to September 16. No contract awards, bids, vendor selections, or spending amounts were identified. Transportation staff reported that 56 buses were available and 10 more were expected; bus cameras and DVRs had been upgraded, and the department was fully staffed except for two spare-driver openings.

Facilities updates included work by construction management firm McCown Gordon: the fence was expected to be completed by August 28 and the field turned over by August 31; high school window installation and cafeteria work were also reported as on schedule, though new appliances would arrive later. A board member raised the possibility of adding a sidewalk near a congested student route, but no action was taken. The meeting also discussed enrollment, strategic-planning timelines, school-bus safety legislation, and upcoming school and community events.
