The Mineral Wells Independent School District Board of Trustees on March 16 approved a contract with CDW Government LLC that will allow the district to purchase district-wide network infrastructure equipment and licensing using E-Rate funding.

The motion to enter into the contract was moved by Joe Ruelas and seconded by Scott Aaron; the motion passed 5-0 with Sunny Lee and Lauretta Poole recorded as absent. District staff indicated the procurement will be funded in part through the federal E-Rate program (Category 1/2 as applicable) and that the contract positions the district to complete necessary equipment purchases as funding and eligibility are confirmed.
