Board approves nearly $152,000 in classroom technology purchases
Summary
The Brooks County ISD Board unanimously approved purchases including $83,934.90 for Chromebooks for dual-credit classes and up to $68,144 for 46 Dell teacher laptops, both presented by Technology Director Jake Reyes.
Technology Director Jake Reyes presented two purchases to equip students and core-area teachers: Chromebooks for dual-credit classes costing $83,934.90 and 46 Dell 16 Plus laptops for teachers not to exceed $68,144. Both items were approved by unanimous board vote.
"Motion by Mrs. V. Tijerina, second by Mr. D. Salinas, All in favor —6-0," the minutes record for each purchase. The board approved both purchases under the district's purchasing and acquisition policy; the minutes do not list vendor names beyond model descriptions or further procurement specifics.
Reyes also previously presented a proposed new Inventory Specialist/Computer Technician position; the board took no action on that staffing item and will return it for consideration at the July 22 meeting.
