Superintendent reports RFPs for school mapping and weapon detection; Hitachi gives $5,000 toward Riverview scoreboard
Summary
Superintendent Dr. Barker said the district posted RFPs for school mapping (for first responders) and weapon detection at the high schools, reported no bidders on the Ruby Baseball Field project, and noted Hitachi contributed $5,000 toward a new Riverview scoreboard.
Dr. Barker gave several operational updates: the district posted requests for proposals for school mapping services (to be shared with first responders), and it issued an RFP for weapon detection systems at both high schools. He said the Ruby Baseball Field bid opening had no bidders and staff will explore alternate options to complete the field before winter. Dr. Barker also announced that a multiuse scoreboard had been installed at Riverview and thanked Hitachi for a $5,000 contribution toward that scoreboard and for inviting CTE students to visit their facilities.
He described prevention programming and community events as well: upcoming training to deliver vaping and substance‑use prevention curricula for grades 8–10, a tea and expo for young women, and planned CTE engagement with local employers. Staff said they will continue to evaluate bids and report back to the board on procurement decisions and next steps.
