Board approves multiple contracts, software renewals and vehicle purchases
Summary
The Lammersville board approved a suite of routine contracts and renewals including emergency lighting battery replacement at Mountain House High ($107,058.49), renewal of ARIES SIS ($148,417.09), a CDW bundle including GoGuardian/Beacon/Adobe ($119,397), and purchase of two Honda CR‑Vs for food services (not to exceed $100,000).
The board approved several consent and action items covering maintenance, software renewals and operational purchases.
Trustees approved a contract for battery replacement on the high‑school emergency lighting system for $107,058.49, citing the age of the high school and first‑time replacement needs. The board also approved a not‑to‑exceed $100,000 purchase for two Honda CR‑Vs for the food services department to replace staff members driving personal vehicles; trustees asked whether the vehicles were hybrid or plug‑in and were told these are not plug‑in vehicles.
On software, trustees approved an ARIES student information and parent communication renewal for $148,417.09 and a CDW government renewal package for $119,397 that includes GoGuardian, Beacon Core and Adobe Creative Cloud licenses. A trustee raised concerns about ParentSquare usage rates and suggested negotiating renewal caps to control steep annual increases.
All motions passed with standard roll calls and five ayes. Trustees said they view the contracts as essential to operations and asked staff to continue negotiating renewal terms where possible.
