In a recent government meeting, officials discussed the approval of mobile educational modules to address space shortages at Evergreen Elementary School. The proposed units, intended for additional classroom flexibility and faculty space, are expected to be delivered within four weeks. The initial setup cost is approximately $18,599, with a monthly fee of $2,067 following installation. Funding for this initiative will be sourced from capital projects, as it was not included in the current budget.

Additionally, the meeting covered a community drug abuse prevention grant agreement. Officials clarified that the program will be district-exclusive and will not involve community collaboration, focusing instead on after-school activities for students.

The board also addressed communication efforts, particularly through a community magazine aimed at enhancing visibility for the Gateway School District. Plans to distribute the magazine to households in Monroeville and Pitcairn were discussed, with the goal of reaching a wider audience.

In other matters, the board approved the use of Insulin IQ, a platform designed to streamline human resources processes, including onboarding and ticketing for inquiries. This decision is expected to save the district $35,000 annually while improving operational efficiency.

The meeting concluded with a call for comments from residents on non-agenda items, encouraging community engagement and feedback.
