Perkiomen Valley board approves IT upgrades, vendor renewals and PVEA contract; item 5.20 pulled for updated pricing
Summary
At its June 8 meeting the board removed item 5.20 from consent to update EDUPoint pricing, then approved EDUPoint hosting, a PayPulink amendment, Lenovo server purchases ($79,726), rescinded a prior motion (5.03), renewed Diligent Board Docs ($9,000), ratified bills/payroll and approved the PVEA collective bargaining agreement with a board member's recusal.
The Perkiomen Valley Board of School Directors conducted routine business on June 8, approving several vendor contracts, infrastructure purchases and personnel actions.
During the consent agenda a member requested removal of item 5.20 (EDUPoint premium cloud hosting and professional services) so updated pricing could be reflected. Mr. Ganesh explained the revision: year-one pricing decreased by $1,200 while year-two pricing rose by about $400, producing a net savings of approximately $600. The board removed the item from consent and later approved EDUPoint hosting with the updated figures.
Among other business, the board approved an amendment to the district's supervision and evaluation services (vendor referenced as PayPulink), purchased Lenovo server appliances to replace aging hosting infrastructure at a cost of $79,726, and approved rescinding board motion 5.03 (approved April 7, 2026) per the solicitor's recommendation. The board also approved renewal of Diligent Board Docs for the 2026-27 year at a cost of $9,000 and ratified payment of bills and payroll for the period ending May 31, 2026; the treasurer's report and financial statements for that period were also approved.
In personnel business the board ratified fall and winter coaching lists and approved a staffing services agreement. For item 7.11, the board approved the PVEA collective bargaining agreement; Mrs. Loftton recused herself from the vote because her husband is covered by the contract. The board recorded motions and seconds and announced each motion carried.
The meeting closed with customary remarks and an adjournment; the board announced it had held an executive session prior to the meeting to discuss safety and legal matters.
