April 14, 2026 at 6:30 PM - 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:  Congratulations!

We are pleased to award Lincoln County School District a $4,000.00 donation in support of the Emergency Preparedness: Increasing Sheltering Capacity for North Lincoln County. Helping fund worthwhile organizations is a gratifying part of the Foundation’s work.

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:  In order to stay on track with our plan for updating our network infrastructure, which is a complex endeavor that is split funded between Bond funds; E-Rate funds; and the FCC Cybersecurity Grant that we received, the Technology Department would like approval for the following hardware items.  We hope to order these tech components as soon as possible, as prices continue to climb on a weekly basis, and wait times for these items are already looking to be around one year from the order date:

Juniper/Mist Access Points - 400 APs for a total of $300,000
Juniper/Mist Switches - 100 switches of various sizes for a total of $400,000

These purchases will be made using Special Fund 298, but the items will be reimbursed by USAC under the E-rate program at 85%, making the final cost to LCSD $105,000 instead of $700,000. 

Thank you for considering taking action on this item, 
Bryan

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.)
