# FRHSD Board of Education Meeting - October 30, 2026

The Freehold Regional High School District Board of Education meeting on October 30, 2026, included an informational presentation on a proposed Energy Savings Improvement Plan (ESIP) to accelerate facility upgrades while containing costs. A facilities assessment identified approximately $591 million in long-term needs; the presentation described a potential nearly 5-megawatt solar system and other energy-conservation measures, with estimated annual savings of about $1.2–$1.3 million. Solar interconnection approval from JCP&L remains uncertain. The plan was exploratory, with formal resolutions expected on a future agenda; the board took no approval vote on it at this meeting. Members also discussed creating a consistent protocol for accepting noncash donations such as supplies, materials, and labor, and noted possible interest in a municipal athletic-complex project, without action or commitment.

The board approved agenda items that included snow-removal contracts and salt-application funding, though the transcript provides no vendor names or amounts for those items. It also approved a student-transportation route bid award amended to name Urban Raphael at $17,820. Other proceedings included personnel and program approvals, student and community recognitions, and discussion of school funding and transportation safety; no further procurement decisions were identified.
