# 8/12/2026 School Board Meeting

The Prosser School District Board meeting on August 12, 2026, included discussion of the 2026–27 budget and several procurement-related approvals. The board approved Resolution 10-26 to accept an emergency repair grant for a failed high-school chiller. The replacement quote from Apollo was $250,253.67; the district reported that the state grant would cover nearly all of the cost, with the district paying the $253.67 difference. The board also approved an early-learning facilities construction contract. The district reported receiving a $1,025,000 Department of Commerce grant and said the construction bid was approximately $768,000–$786,000 before tax; the project will convert an existing large room into three classrooms and related spaces, with a Yakima contractor and local subcontractors. The board approved the annual Ken-A-Vision science-material-kit service agreement; a later report noted a $5-per-kit increase from the prior year.

The board also approved the MSL consulting agreement for support with school improvement plans and data analysis, vouchers and payroll, and the PEA and ESPP employment agreements. The ESPP agreement raises a responsibility stipend from $86 to $100; the PEA agreement includes professional-development provisions, while salaries were not renegotiated. The 2026–27 budget was discussed, including staffing changes and potential use of freed-up funds for instructional improvement, but no budget adoption vote occurred at this meeting. Other discussion covered student recognition and district operations; no additional procurement actions were identified.
