Board approves roof and science lab bids; authorizes laptop lease for student devices
Summary
Trustees approved low bids for a high‑school roof project and the science‑room remodel (with superintendent authority to add alternates), and approved a four‑year lease to replace student laptops to ensure delivery before next school year.
The Brookings School Board approved multiple facilities and technology actions, including low‑bid awards for a high‑school roofing project and a science‑room remodel, and authorized a four‑year lease for student laptops.
Stacy presented the low bid from MJ Dulson Roofing for sections 1–5 of the Brookings High School roof replacement; the board voted to accept the low bidder. The board also accepted the low bid from Mills Construction for the high‑school science‑room remodel (packet showed a $2,179,000 base bid plus $25,900 for alternate one). Trustees amended the motion to allow Superintendent Summer Schultz discretionary authority to add additional alternates as needed to ensure the finished science area meets program needs; the amendment and final motion passed by voice vote.
Separately, the board approved a four‑year lease for new Camelot 1:1 student laptops so units can be ordered and configured for fall delivery; billing will begin after July 1. Trustees said timing is necessary to ensure devices are ready for students at the start of school.
The consent agenda also included approval of donated items: a $400 donation to the Brookings High School orchestra and a cumulative FoodForThought contribution of $15,490.27 to support students and families with lunch accounts. The board thanked community donors for the support.
What happens next: Facilities staff will coordinate construction schedules and confirm alternates as directed by the superintendent; IT will finalize specifications and ordering timelines to meet fall deployment.
