# OP Board of Education - Regularly Scheduled Meeting- November 9, 2026

The Oak Park Board of Education’s regularly scheduled meeting on November 9, 2026, included a presentation of the 2026 audit results, but the transcript provides no substantive audit findings or related spending decisions. The board approved an agreement for special education services from Rethink Solutions and a physical therapy services agreement with Vita Solutions LLC. Trustees asked how student records and evaluations created or maintained by the providers would be handled. The proposed appointment to the Oak Park Youth Assistance Board was tabled until the next meeting. The board also discussed renewing RMA Grounds Care’s snow-removal services; members asked about pricing, scope, staffing, and coordination with district maintenance crews, but the transcript does not capture a vote on the renewal.

The superintendent discussed staffing changes amid financial constraints, including the potential salary and benefit costs of adding central-office positions, and noted the district’s reliance on long-term substitutes. A staff representative reported that employees had ratified a proposed new contract. The board entered closed session to discuss an Oak Park Education Association letter of agreement; after returning to open session, it approved a motion, though the transcript does not clearly identify the motion’s substance. No contract amounts or terms for the provider agreements or grounds-care renewal are stated.
