District flags $300,000 network replacement as reason for technology capital reserve
Summary
Director of Digital Systems said 2025‑26 calls for replacement of network switches and cores at an estimated cost of about $300,000, underscoring the need for the Technology Capital Reserve approved by voters.
Michelle Burke, the district’s Director of Digital Systems, briefed the board on the technology replacement cycle slated for 2025‑26 and identified replacement of network switches and cores as a planned expense in the coming fiscal year. She estimated the work at approximately $300,000 and framed the need as an example of why the Technology Capital Reserve — previously approved by voters — remains important for multi‑year infrastructure planning.
Administrators also presented a proposed three‑year technology grant collaboration with York and Attica schools that could offset some costs. The board received the presentation as part of department budget discussions and will incorporate this capital need into budget planning and proposition language where appropriate.
