Board approves Skyward migration, Spinbridge subscription and credit‑card limit increases
Loading...
Summary
Lebanon board approved a multi-year migration to Skyward's upgraded 'Q' system, accepted a $6,000 annual Spinbridge purchasing subscription (now locally funded), and authorized credit card limit increases to support in-house buildings and grounds purchasing after Aramark ended its contract.
The Lebanon board approved three operational items related to procurement and technology: a Skyward migration to the vendor's new 'Q' system, an annual Spinbridge subscription now funded by the district, and credit-card limit increases to accommodate in‑house purchasing.
Administrators explained that Skyward is the district's student information system and that the vendor is migrating districts to a new cloud-based platform called 'Q.' Staff said Lebanon will be a late adopter and expects an 18‑month migration window through 2027, with internal training and coordination of student data for state reporting (including the Dec. 1 count). "We are migrating to that system by 2027," the administrator said.
Mr. Dennis asked the board to approve assuming an annual $6,000 cost for Spinbridge, a purchasing platform the state previously funded. He said the platform integrates with accounts payable and generates purchase orders, making purchasing more efficient for school staff. "This is integrated with our accounts payable system, generates a purchase order for us," he said.
On procurement, Mr. Dennis also requested credit limit increases for Mr. Triller's card to purchase supplies that Aramark previously provided; he noted an October comparison that showed a $41,000 monthly savings since bringing buildings & grounds in house.
All three measures were approved by voice vote with no recorded opposition. Administrators said they will proceed with implementation and keep the board informed on migration and procurement changes.
