Board asked to approve $107,414 loan to replace staff laptops and buy AV equipment
Summary
An administrator told the board the state approved a $107,414 Common School Loan and asked local approval to purchase 95 staff laptops and a 120-inch projector and screen for Room 134; the transcript records the loan request but does not record a board vote outcome.
District leaders told the board that on Dec. 10 the state board approved a Common School Loan application in the amount of $107,414 and asked the local board to authorize purchasing equipment with that funding. The request listed 95 laptops for certified staff (to replace five-year-old devices), a 120-inch projector and screen for Room 134 and installation services, with costs not to exceed the stated loan amount from the 2025 Common School Loan Fund.
The administrator said the current staff laptops are five years old and out of warranty and described a staged rollout with team-level setups to avoid distributing all devices at once. "So on December 10, the state board approved our loan application in the amount of $107,414," the administrator said. The transcript records the request for approval but does not include a recorded vote or formal approval in the meeting text.
