A PAC member must be a parent or guardian of a student who has been determined eligible for special education services by an IEP team, and of a student who has a current academic year IEP, and whose nomination as a PAC member has been approved by his or her, local school board, and whose nomination as a PAC member has been accepted and approved by Oakland Schools Board of Education.

PAC members must be "qualified parents" according to R 340.1838.  Terms are established at three-year intervals.  Members are responsible for attending meetings and participating in established committees as identified in the PAC By-Laws.  PAC members are also responsible for being in contact with their Local Education Agency that they represent.

Subject:
3.J. Administrative Comments regarding Approval of Technology Purchase - Firewall
Subject:
3.J.1. Approval of Technology Purchase - Firewall
Description:

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY/BACKGROUND: 
The existing firewall was put into place as a temporary solution in order to utilize Erate funding to purchase a new firewall.  We went through the bid process and Delta Network Services was the low bid. The current firewall is end of life and needs to be replaced.  Utilizing Erate funding we will be eligible to receive up to 40% back on the cost which would be about $25,000.

RECOMMENDATION: 
The Superintendent recommends that the Board of Education authorize the purchase of a new firewall in the amount of $61,669.64 using Delta Network Services.  Funding source: ESSER III

IMPACT IF NOT APPROVED: 
The district will continue to utilize the temporary firewall which doesn’t meet the capacity needs of the district and continues to negatively impact access to the internet.

NEXT STEPS IF APPROVED: 
Madison District Public Schools will install the new firewall in April
