Board hears textbook review memorandum and routine district reports; superintendent previews theater production and summer projects
Summary
The board received a memorandum to review recommended K–12 social studies and arts education textbooks, heard capital project and financial reports, and heard a superintendent update on theater dates and upcoming capital work.
At the March 24 meeting the Opelika City Schools board received a memorandum from Dr. Pam Fourtenbary, assistant superintendent of curriculum, requesting review of textbooks recommended by the textbook adoption committee for K–12 Social Studies and Arts Education; the item was listed as an information item with no action recorded in the transcript.
District staff provided routine reports: a capital projects update was given by Lamar Zuiderhoek of Scout Management; financial reports for February 2026 were presented and the minutes state that bank statements for February have been reconciled; and the monthly Child Nutrition Report for February 2026 was presented (presenter not specified in the excerpt).
Superintendent Dr. Kevin Davis reported that Opelika High School's theater department will present 'Footloose' April 10–12 and April 17–19, noted that spring sports are underway across the district, and said the district anticipates a very active summer as it moves forward with several capital improvement projects.
Because the textbook memorandum was presented as an information item, the transcript does not record any board vote on adoption at this meeting; further review or action would be expected through the textbook adoption process and subsequent agenda items if brought forward.
