March 10, 2026 at 6:30 PM - Lincoln County School District Business Meeting of the Board

Description:  Oregon law prohibits discrimination in all public elementary and secondary schools that receive state funding, including discrimination based on perceived race, color, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability or national origin. All comments during our public board meetings will follow these policies. I would like to highlight two of these policies: AC, Non-Discrimination, and ACB, Every Student Belongs, in regards to appropriate public comments.

Description:  Board meetings are meetings of the Board that are held in public—they are not public meetings in the sense of being open forums. The Board has official business to conduct, and any disruptions may require us to adjust the setting in which we meet.
Please note that public comment will be conducted in accordance with Board Policy BDDH - Public Comment at Board Meetings. Additionally, Oregon law prohibits discrimination in all public elementary and secondary schools, and this Board is fully committed to upholding that law.
During the public comment periods—the first reserved for comments on topics listed on the Board’s agenda, and the second for general comments on topics not included on the agenda—audience members who have submitted a public comment card to the Board Secretary will have the opportunity to speak. While the Board does not engage in discussion during public comment, it may ask clarifying questions when appropriate.
The Board Chair reserves the right to set the speaking time as outlined in policy BDDH. For this meeting, individuals will have up to three minutes to speak. If a group is commenting on the same topic, a designated representative will need to be selected and they may speak for up to five minutes.
As a reminder, comments regarding individual district staff members will not be heard during public comment. In those cases, the Board Chair will direct speakers to follow the procedures outlined in Board Policy KL - Public Complaints to submit a formal complaint.

Description:  (Consent Calendar agenda items are designated by the Board to be adopted in a single motion unless an individual Board member or the Superintendent requests an item be removed for consideration.  Action on matters of a routine matter is addressed in one motion to conserve time for other deliberation by the Board.)                   
 

Description:  Regular personnel action requiring Board approval.

Description:  (Decision Items are those that have been presented to the Board for discussion and questions at a prior meeting.  Some circumstances may dictate a Decision Item without prior discussion.)
 

Description:  (Discussion Items are presented for the Board’s consideration, discussion and questions.  Discussion Items will be considered for Decision at a subsequent meeting.  Information items are for information only.)
 

Description:  Every year, we purchase new chromebooks and accessories in order to maintain a 5-year refresh cycle on this important technology for our students.  This year we are moving to a 6-year refresh cycle, so that the annual purchase is slightly lower in count.  However, the price of technology continues to rise, so the request for this year's purchase will be around the same figure as previous years, on the 5-year refresh cycle.  

750 2026 Chromebooks and 50 Chromebook Charing Carts are needed for next school year.  

350 of them will be purchased with a 5-year warranty and a plastic case (for use with 9-12 grade students).
400 of them will be purchased without the warranty or case (for use in K-8 classrooms). 

50 Charging carts will go into elementary/middle school classrooms to replace our aging carts.  

The Chromebooks will be $300,000, and the carts will be $100,000. 

We will need to purchase these items no later than May 1, 2026 so that we can get them ready to deploy over the summer break.
