# Working Session 10-12-2026

The October 12, 2026, OJR School District board working session included interviews and ranking of candidates for a vacant board seat; Danielle Ryan was selected as the top-ranked candidate, with a motion to place her appointment vote on the October 26 business-meeting agenda. The board also discussed a roughly $200 million main-campus improvement plan, including gym and cafeteria work and athletic fields, but no award for that overall plan was made in the transcript.

Procurement actions included discussion of a $13,000 turf-field recalibration charge, with board members questioning whether it should be covered by warranty. The proposed follow-up was to check whether payment had been issued, stop payment if possible, contact the vendor about warranty coverage, and report back. The committee also moved to advertise bids for phase two and phase three of the long-term facilities project: phase two covers high-school HVAC work (general, HVAC, plumbing, sprinkler, and electrical contractors), and phase three covers middle- and high-school roof replacements. Bids will be handled by the business department with assistance from the Shrader Group; the lowest responsible bidder meeting specifications is expected to be presented for board approval, likely in January. Policy discussions included bullying and cyberbullying procedures and wellness checks for virtual students; these were not procurement actions.
