Summary
The board approved an AED replacement contract ($61,481), a Tyler Technologies GPS/tablet contract ($98,068 annual maintenance), a copier lease (monthly amount unclear in transcript), and Goodheart-Wilcox digital health curriculum contracts; it also approved consent agenda items and advanced several policies from first to second reading and adopted another set at second reading.
The Camas School District board approved several procurement contracts and advanced multiple policies during its regular meeting.
On a motion and voice vote, the board approved a contract with Omnia FAS to replace aging automated external defibrillators (AEDs) in district buildings. The motion cited a contract amount of $61,481 plus applicable tax to be funded from the district's technology levy safety funds.
Later the board approved a Tyler Technologies GPS/tablet system and annual maintenance contract for $98,068 plus tax to be funded through the district's technology levy. Board members said the GPS/tablet system will improve routing and provide parents with better visibility of bus pick-up and drop-off.
The board also approved a lease with Pacific Office Automation to replace five aging copy machines; the monthly lease amount recorded in the transcript is ambiguous (the transcript records the figure unclearly), and the board stated the lease will be funded through the general fund.
In curriculum procurement, the board approved a six-year digital contract with Goodheart-Wilcox for high school health curriculum: $16,360.80 for Camas High School (to be paid through CTE funds) and $6,351.84 for Discovery High School (to be paid from curriculum and instruction funds).
The board approved the consent agenda and votes moved a set of policies from first to second reading (including comprehensive school counseling and student discipline policies) and adopted another set at second reading after no changes were reported. All recorded motions were passed by voice vote with no nays recorded in the public meeting.
The meeting closed with an announcement that the board would enter a 60-minute executive session on personnel matters and that no further public action would occur that evening.
