# TCAPS Board of Education Regular Meeting 10.12.26

The TCAPS Board of Education held its regular meeting on October 12, 2026. Procurement-related discussion included a robotic field printer, described as the district’s second printer, which the Finance and Operations Committee moved to the consent calendar for purchase using 2024 bond funds from the facilities allocation. The board approved the consent calendar; the transcript does not provide a reliable purchase amount or vendor. The committee also reported that solar panels at Westwoods, Central High School, and Traverse Heights are operating, though a software issue is preventing data retrieval from Traverse Heights, and preliminary figures indicate energy savings at buildings served by Cherryland.

The district is assessing possible options for the Central High School gym and expects engineering and architectural information before presenting options at an October 28 community meeting; no project decision or contract award was made. The board also approved the consent calendar generally, with no other specific procurement actions identifiable in the transcript. Other discussion included special education, school safety, curriculum, staffing, and community programs.
