Board approves new phone system after repeated outages with Windstream
Summary
Trustees approved replacing the district phone system with Global Systems under a 60-month contract after Superintendent Devin Tate reported multiple outages ('8 or 9 times already this year'); vendor training was discussed.
Superintendent Devin Tate told trustees the district’s phone system has suffered repeated outages this year — "8 or 9 times already this year" — hampering parent and district communications. Tate and administrators recommended replacing the aging system and noted the district currently owns its equipment.
Trustee Justin Davis moved to approve the purchase and 60-month contract with Global Systems; Trustee Clayton McGuire seconded and the motion passed unanimously. Trustees discussed warranty and maintenance assurances and backup contact via Ken Hahn; installer training was proposed for after the Christmas break.
