# City School Board - November 10, 2026

At its November 10, 2026 meeting, the Murfreesboro City Schools Board approved several procurement and budget actions. It approved a HopSkipDrive transportation services agreement, with estimated spending exceeding $30,000 this fiscal year from the existing transportation budget; use is contingent on final negotiations and legal review, and the district anticipated a possible student trip to Nashville. The board awarded Singer H&R the $80,941 contract to supply and install a warehouse walk-in freezer, funded by nutrition funds, after a competitive bid process that drew six responses. It also approved a four-year Cisco Webex calling subscription for 993 licenses at a total cost of $262,471 ($65,617 annually), and a $55,940 school-security mapping software contract through a cooperative purchasing arrangement. The board approved reassigning a district bus to school nutrition at no cost, with any future conversion or operating costs requiring separate approvals. Other approved financial actions included budget amendments recognizing a $3,500 City Schools Foundation music grant and a $5,700 foundation grant for farm-to-school projects, an attendance-related budget transfer, a statutory surety bond for the finance director, and a part-time ESP onboarding assistant position.

The board also approved several policy revisions on first reading, including changes related to state statutory requirements, E-Verify, and employee in-service training. The proposed FY28 budget calendar was presented for information. School rezoning options and a possible centralized pre-K campus were discussed, but no action was taken; the district planned a community meeting on November 16 and expected to bring a recommendation to the board in December. Other presentations covered a district math institute and annual internet-security measures.
