# The Board of Education Meeting of October 21, 2026

The Ossining Union Free School District Board of Education regular meeting on October 21, 2026, included a presentation on the middle school’s long-range action plan, student outcomes, instructional practices, and family engagement. The board approved several consent-agenda items, including an agreement with the administrators’ association, a settlement agreement with an employee, consultant appointments for the 2026–2027 school year, capital-project closeout and interfund-transfer resolutions, and staffing and placement actions. No contract amounts, vendor selections, or competitive bid awards were stated. The board also approved tenure for a teacher and advanced a student bicycle and micromobility policy as a first reading, amended to apply to students rather than staff.

Board members discussed the potential financial impact on local districts of charter schools, including a proposed vocational/aviation-focused school near Harrison, and considered coordinated advocacy, a possible resolution, and community information efforts. These were proposed follow-up actions; no advocacy resolution or related expenditure was approved during the meeting. A phase-one school addition and its architectural and engineering drawings were mentioned, but no related procurement decision was presented. Overall, procurement activity was limited to the consultant appointments and routine business resolutions, with no specific procurement values identified.
