# Board of Education Meeting October 13, 2026

The Hamburg Central School District Board of Education met on October 13, 2026. A capital-project manager reported progress on roofing, auditorium renovations, a new art suite, and bathroom work; some work was nearing completion. The project’s original contingency budget was approximately $332,000, with 59% remaining, and 58% of contract allowances remaining. Metro was identified with demolition work and Fry’s with electrical work. The board approved a change order, but the transcript does not provide its amount or scope. The board also approved contracts for transporting individual students for the 2026–27 school year and an agreement with Elderwood Assisted Living; neither item included a dollar amount in the transcript. A memorandum of understanding with Frontier Central School District for a 2026–27 EMT class was also approved. Financial consent items, including budget transfers under $25,000, were approved, though individual transfers are not detailed.

The board heard a report from Fisher/Landmark representatives about school-bus service problems and planned corrective actions, including earlier routing, added dispatch staff, training, and improved family communications. Board members questioned how performance would be measured and requested regular progress reporting. Public commenters raised concerns about the transportation contract, the district’s RFP receiving only one response, and proposed studying district-operated buses; these were suggestions, not board-approved procurement actions. The board also approved its 2026–27 goals. No new vendor selection or major contract award with a disclosed dollar value was identified.
