Eustace ISD board authorizes RFP for 2026–27 E‑Rate funding year
Summary
Trustees approved a request for proposal to participate in the 2026–2027 E‑Rate funding year, directing the district's technology staff to issue an RFP to secure federal connectivity funding.
At the Dec. 15 meeting, Trustee Joe Gomez moved to approve a request for proposal for the 2026–2027 E‑Rate funding year; Trustee Blake Ward seconded and the motion carried with all five trustees present voting in favor.
The action authorizes district technology staff to issue an RFP to seek funding under the federal E‑Rate program for the 2026–27 cycle. The minutes record the approval but do not specify the technology scope, estimated costs, or the RFP timeline; district staff were recorded in attendance (Assistant Superintendent Sam Perry and Administrative Assistant Teri Clark) and will likely manage or support the RFP process.
The RFP authorization is procedural and necessary to pursue federal discounts for school connectivity; the board did not discuss contract awards or vendor selection at this meeting.
