At the Nov. 6 special open session, the Francis Howell R-III Board of Education approved a motion to purchase MARCO/33 interactive panels as presented to secure three free units that must be delivered by the end of the year.
Board members discussed timing and logistics; staff said taking delivery before the holidays would be necessary to qualify for the promotional units and that approving the purchase now could save the district about $6,000 compared with waiting until the Nov. 20 meeting. The motion passed on a voice vote; no roll‑call tally was recorded in the transcript.
The board then adjourned the special open session and moved into a work session for the facility master plan presentation.
