Board reviews single bid for access control RFP and discusses driver education simulators
Summary
Assistant Superintendent Kara Hosni told the Wyoming County Schools board that only one vendor — American Technologies — responded to an access-control RFP for the Alternative Learning Center; she also described plans to provide driver education simulators and said the security project would be funded from Title 4.
At a board meeting, Assistant Superintendent Kara Hosni told the Wyoming County Schools board that only one company responded to an RFP for access control and security at the Alternative Learning Center and that she and a colleague recommended moving forward with that bidder, American Technologies.
"Only one company actually responded to the RFP," Hosni said, referring board members to page 57 of the packet. She and Miss Biggs opened the bid together and both felt comfortable recommending American Technology Security for the project. Hosni said the work would be covered through Title 4 funding.
Hosni also described past and proposed use of driver education simulators, saying simulators provide students with seat time during inclement weather and allow practice across weather and traffic scenarios typical in southern West Virginia. She described allocations for simulators (one identified for 'Ryan Eason' and another for a secondary site) and emphasized varied scenario training for safety and instructional continuity.
The transcript records the recommendation and the funding source but does not include a formal recorded vote or contract award in the available segments. Board members asked clarifying questions about equipment lifecycle and responses to the RFP; Hosni said older systems were no longer reusable and the district had worked to develop the RFP to ensure varied simulator content and instructional alignment.
