Beaufort board ratifies personnel actions, approves construction amendment and reclassifies $1.6 million to bond funds
Summary
After executive session the board unanimously approved the superintendent's personnel ratification list, approved an amendment with Thompson Turner Construction for the Ladies Island Middle School replacement (GMP figure in the record was unclear), and reclassified $1,600,000 from FY2026 capital improvement projects to the 2019 bond referendum.
Returning from executive session, the Beaufort County Board of Education approved three formal items by unanimous vote.
First, the board approved the superintendent’s recommended personnel ratification report for March 2026, as presented by the secretary. The motion was seconded and recorded as approved by all members.
Second, the board approved Amendment No. 2 with Thompson Turner Construction for the Ladies Island Middle School replacement project and the total project scope for construction with a guaranteed maximum price (GMP) figure reported in the meeting transcript. The GMP number in the transcript was garbled and could not be reliably transcribed; the board recorded the amendment as approved. The motion passed unanimously.
Third, the board approved reclassification of secured-entry renovation funds from the FY2026 capital improvement projects to the 2019 bond referendum for a total of $1,600,000; that motion also passed unanimously.
Each motion was made, seconded and adopted by roll call with members recorded as in favor. The board did not provide additional appropriation details or further public discussion when adopting these items; administrative follow-up and contract documentation will be handled by the superintendent’s office and the district’s procurement staff.
