Technology Director Shelli Wendland told trustees the district plans a 185-device Chromebook refresh and listed camera server repairs, a Fortinet 400F firewall and 10 access points among E‑Rate items.

Technology Director Shelli Wendland briefed the board on the district’s technology priorities, including a Chromebook refresh and several E‑Rate purchases.

Wendland’s report listed a "Chromebook Refresh - 185" as a yearly replacement, with accessories such as cases and screen protectors. She also reported Microsoft licensing, camera server needs (video card and camera repair), coordination with Hunt County tech directors and proposed E‑Rate items including a Fortinet 400 F firewall and 10 access points.

The minutes record these items as part of the technology director’s report but do not attach dollar amounts, vendor contracts for each line item, or procurement timelines beyond the later motion approving the 185-device Chromebook purchase.
