The Davenport Community School District board approved three facility and funding actions during its regular meeting: final approval of 95% plans for Central High School’s tennis-court resurfacing, acceptance of a Bray Architects contract for a Harrison Elementary roofing replacement, and authorization for district staff to seek the full 5% modified supplemental amount from the School Budget Review Committee for dropout-prevention programs in 2026–27.

The board opened a public hearing on the Central High tennis-court renovation plans and noted the hearing notice ran in the Quad City Times on 10/27/2025. Director Potts moved to approve the 95% plans and specifications; after the hearing was closed the board conducted a roll-call vote. Directors Barnes, Beck, Hayes, Poston, Potts, Ward and the chair voted yes and the motion carried.

Director Hayes moved to approve Bray Architects’ lump-sum contract of $61,400 for Harrison Elementary roof replacement. The motion was seconded and approved by voice vote with no questions recorded. The board’s meeting transcript records the motion text and the contract amount as presented.

On funding, Director Paschen moved to authorize district administration to ask the School Budget Review Committee for the full 5% modified supplemental amount for the 2026–27 at-risk and dropout-prevention program. That motion was seconded and approved by voice vote. The board did not specify an exact district appropriation amount in the discussion; the motion formally authorizes the district to request the additional percentage from the state review body.

Other business: the consent agenda was approved without discussion earlier in the meeting; board members then heard presentations and recognitions before adjourning. The draft 2025–26 board calendar was discussed and will return for a formal vote at the organizational meeting scheduled in two weeks.

What’s next: the board’s authorization to request modified supplemental funding means district staff will submit the request to the School Budget Review Committee; any award or reduction will be determined by that committee’s review and state processes.
