Board hears facilities, technology and summer-program updates; considers tech purchases and sewer relining
Summary
Reports covered building project closeout and warranty issues, a $37,000 quote to reline middle‑school sewer lines, Verizon hotspot integration and cost reductions, proposed district licensing for eFax and Swank streaming, and staffing and schedule details for Extended School Year programming.
Board members heard several operational updates covering facilities, technology and summer programs.
Supervisor of Buildings and Grounds reported continued closeout work on the recent construction project and several warranty items still open with the general contractor, including grading of propane tanks and replacement of an energy wheel on an RTU after track season. He presented a quote to reline sewer lines at the middle school that he said was "like, 36,000, just under 37,000" and asked that the business office budget $37,000 for the work to prevent recurring failures.
On transportation and safety, the supervisor said he has bus-camera quotes and plans to work with district leadership; he noted those cameras would be funded by a PCCD grant. The district also completed geotechnical testing for new light poles.
The district technology lead reported that the Verizon hotspots previously deployed for distance learning have been migrated into a management system and that the per-device cost dropped from about $40/month to $15/month. The technology report also covered integration of parents into Microsoft Teams, a district deployment of app-protection policies to staff personal devices, and upcoming work with the IU on Mimecast mail archiving and Microsoft unified support.
The administration presented a supplemental contract for a summer weight-room supervisor and listed the staff for ESY (extended-school-year) programming, which is scheduled to run June 10–July 10 on Tuesdays and Thursdays, 8–11 a.m., with transportation provided.
Attribution: Facilities and technology items were presented by the Supervisor of Buildings and Grounds and the technology lead (Ross); staffing and ESY details were provided by administrative staff identified in the meeting record.
