Decisions That Affect Classrooms, Safety, and Resources
Beyond presentations and recognitions, the board will also consider several consent agenda items that can influence day-to-day school operations.
These include:
-
Approval of February 2026 financial reports and April budget amendments
-
Adoption of instructional materials for the 2026–2027 school year
-
Investment in life safety system upgrades at the Education Support Complex
-
Approval of infrastructure improvements tied to district transportation
