# Lindbergh Schools Board of Education Workshop No. 1638

Lindbergh Schools Board of Education Workshop No. 1638 was held July 20, 2026. The board received student achievement and growth data and updates on alternative learning programs. Staff reported that the district plans to bring alternative education services in-house after the external Scope program ended. The district has been allocating $185,000 to the program and repurposed an existing academy position to support the new model; administrators said they will return with a financial plan for any facility build-out and related costs. The district is also exploring shared space with a church, with permitting and cost responsibilities still under discussion. A grant for a skilled-trades/carpentry program was noted as already secured. No procurement award or spending-related vote was identified.

Administrators and benefits advisers presented proposed health-plan contribution and premium changes to address a medical-fund deficit. The proposal aims to generate about $1.6 million in revenue while retaining a no-cost employee-only coverage option; based on current enrollment, the changes were estimated to generate about $1.382 million. Board contributions would remain unchanged. The proposal is scheduled for employee committee discussion in August and formal board consideration in the fall, with changes intended to take effect January 1, 2027. The workshop also included extensive assessment reporting; no related purchasing decisions were discussed.
