Webster board approves 2026–27 safety plan and related contracts, including SRO and school physician
Summary
The board approved the district safety plan for 2026–27, an intermunicipal agreement for school resource officers and the contract for the district school physician; the safety plan was presented as unchanged from last year and the SRO contract will proceed as the district names officers.
The Webster Board of Education approved the district’s 2026–27 safety plan and moved forward on related agreements for school resource officers (SROs) and the district’s school physician.
The presenter noted the safety plan mirrors last year’s plan with date updates and that the prior public hearing had not reached the full 30‑day public-input window; no public comments were received. The board voted to formally adopt the plan for 2026–27.
The board also approved an intermunicipal agreement for SROs. The presenter described the SRO arrangement as an intermunicipal contract to provide officers for school safety; board members discussed timing, that two SRO positions are anticipated and that appointments will be finalized closer to August. The transcript notes that contractor buses and vendors have CPI-based cost escalators when applicable.
The board approved the 2026–27 school physician contract, noting no changes to the job description and naming Dr. Callahan in the transcript as the incumbent physician for the district.
Why it matters: The safety plan and related agreements determine how the district organizes on-site safety services and health coverage for students and staff for the school year.
What’s next: District administration will finalize SRO assignments as the school year approaches and implement the safety plan and physician services under the approved contracts.
