Summary
The board approved the consent agenda; expenditures of $2,379,029.83; policy revisions (5008, 5101, 5103, 6400 and removal of 6410/6410.1); CodeHS pilot purchase ($6,694); auditorium sound bid ($119,256.53); EPIC audio system ($63,042.12); and a 2026 MCI bus purchase ($649,279 + $4,000 delivery).
At its June meeting, the Scottsbluff Public Schools Board of Education took multiple formal actions. Key approvals included routine items and several capital and program purchases.
Formal actions recorded in the meeting included approval of the consent agenda (including a certified‑staff hire), adoption of monthly expenditures of $2,379,029.83, readoption of the student‑fees policy appendix, and the following notable purchases and approvals:
• CodeHS digital curriculum pilot for 2025–26: $6,694 (one‑year pilot with two instructors). • Auditorium sound‑system award to Luxe ABL, option 2: $119,256.53. • EPIC audio enhancement system for the Early Childhood Learning Center and SCC building: $63,042.12 (vendor: Kansas City Audio Visual); district staff said self‑installation will reduce installation costs. • Purchase of a 2026 MCI J4500 coach from Motor Coach Industries: $649,279 plus $4,000 delivery; funded from the depreciation fund. • QCPUF resolution approved to allow use of qualified capital funds for certain projects and to move forward with related bids.
The board also approved several policy revisions (attendance, discipline, parental/community involvement and Title I arrangements) and removed combined Title I policies so building Title I plans will contain school‑specific language. Several motions included waivers of second readings because of statutory deadlines.
Why this matters: the approvals allocate district funds across curriculum, safety, facility upgrades and transportation and adjust policies that govern student discipline, attendance and Title I implementation.
