During a recent government meeting, board members discussed several key topics, including the status of an ongoing investigation related to Myers Wilkins and updates on technology initiatives within the district.

One board member inquired about the conclusion of the investigation concerning Myers Wilkins, specifically regarding a gymnasium incident. The response indicated uncertainty about whether the investigation had been completed or if any actions had been taken against the involved driver. The board member expressed a desire for clarity on the situation, highlighting the community's interest in the outcome.

The meeting then shifted focus to the technology department's report, where improvements in the boardroom's audio-visual capabilities were noted. The boardroom is now functioning effectively for streaming purposes, although some technical adjustments are still needed, particularly with the Chromecast devices.

The September technology report revealed an overall increase in various metrics, attributed to the return of staff and students. Issues such as email spoofing and phishing attempts have also risen, prompting discussions about cybersecurity measures. The report mentioned that some students have yet to complete their blended learning requirements, affecting account activations.

Additionally, two E-rate bids were announced, with one expected to return around $170,000 and due on November 19. The second bid, for uninterruptible power supplies, is anticipated to be approximately $40,000. The board also discussed a federal cybersecurity pilot program, which has a budget of $200 million over three years, aimed at assessing the need for enhanced cybersecurity in K-12 schools.

Overall, the meeting underscored the board's commitment to addressing community concerns while advancing technological infrastructure and security measures in the educational environment.
