The Ore City Independent School District Board of Trustees voted unanimously Oct. 6 to approve the purchase and installation of 10mm 4x8 digital marquee signs for the high school and middle school, with the board setting a limit of "not to exceed $47,000." The motion was made by Bobby Byrd and seconded by Chris Barton; all seven trustees voted yes.
Vendors from Watchfire and Bailey Signs demonstrated the proposed signs during the superintendent update, describing features that include cloud‑based programming, night‑time auto‑dimming, a projected 10–15 year lifespan and a five‑year parts warranty. The board discussed who will have posting access; the superintendent will decide which staff may upload messages or videos. The minutes note the companies have previously installed signs for Region 8 and Marshall ISD.
