District considers digital scoreboard panels; staff cites $30,000 estimate
Summary
Staff presented a proposal for digital scoreboard panels and padded scoring benches, suggesting 30 panels with a total estimated cost of $30,000 for two boards (about $15,000 per school) and potential advertising revenue to offset costs.
Staff described a concept for padded scoring benches and a digital scoreboard panel showcased at a conference, saying the district liked the design and saw it as a way to showcase students' work and create design opportunities for students.
On cost and scope, staff reported the panels would total roughly $30,000 for two boards—about $15,000 per school—and suggested advertising could generate revenue to offset the purchase. Staff also suggested a potential funding source: the district has historically used a U Trust grant (through the district's risk-insurance trust) for similar items if funds are available. The transcript records the estimated cost and the funding-source suggestion; no purchase motion was recorded in the excerpt.
