Board approves e-Rate funded WAN and switching purchases totaling $105,010
Summary
Technology Committee recommended accepting bids for a WAN connection from In The Stix ($25,164 over three years) and internal switching/licensing from Access Agility ($79,846); the board noted the district's e-Rate reimbursement rate is 70%.
The Technology Committee recommended, and the board approved, two e-Rate Category funding purchases: a WAN connection for Jackson Elementary from In The Stix at a total cost of $25,164 over three years starting July 1, 2026, and internal switching and licensing from Access Agility at a cost of $79,846 based on sales quote #26122.
The minutes note the district's e-Rate reimbursement rate from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is 70%, which will reduce the district’s net costs for these purchases. Both motions passed unanimously.
The board did not record specific implementation timelines beyond the three-year WAN cost span; the administration will proceed with procurement under e-Rate rules.
