# October 13, 2026 Monongalia County BOE regular meeting

The Monongalia County Board of Education’s regular meeting on October 13, 2026, included approval of the district’s 2026 financial statements. The treasurer reported a $45.7 million general-fund balance and $98.8 million in assets across all funds. Reported general-fund spending and transfers included $4 million for the Suncrest Middle School property, a $2 million transfer toward its construction, $1 million for the all-students-eat-free program, and nearly $3 million for child nutrition. The board also reviewed ongoing capital projects: Mountain View’s STEM addition and phase two of the MHS cafeteria had reached substantial completion; the Westwood Middle football field and phase one of the MHS kitchen renovation were complete; and the Suncrest Middle School build was preparing to begin.

The board approved Change Order No. 2 for the MTech project and agreements with Silver Eagle Security for school-site traffic-control officers and Therapeutic Research Center LLC for a subscription supporting MTech’s pharmacy-technician program. It also considered the City Construction contract for Suncrest Middle School, described as formalizing a previously approved fee proposal; a guaranteed maximum price is to be presented after preliminary project review. The board approved a Northeast Natural Energy unitization application without objection, allowing the district to remain a neutral party and receive weighted-average bonus and royalty payments if production is established. No dollar amounts for these agreements or the MTech change order were stated in the transcript.
