LOCATION:Central Services Board Room 468 Renaissance Drive
DESCRIPTION:Board of Education\n\nChatham County Schools' Board of Education spent much of its meeting recognizing staff and students\, including an EC Educator of Excellence award and monthly Champions of Character and Power of One honorees.

SUMMARY:Chatham County Schools: Special Session
LOCATION:Central Services Meeting Rooms 468 Renaissance Drive
DESCRIPTION:Board of Education\n\nThe school board and the county commissioners met together to hear three presentations on the same question: how fast Chatham is about to grow and what that means for schools and infrastructure.\n\nChatham Park's developers laid out a build-out of about 27\,000 units across 8\,500 acres\, including two school sites they are giving the district. NC State's forecasting group followed with the enrollment projection that comes out of it\, and county staff closed with an update on broadband grants and the digital inclusion plan adopted in December.\n\nWatch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4hIGUezkJ5k\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/2597

SUMMARY:Chatham County Schools: Regular Session
LOCATION:Central Services Board Room 468 Renaissance Drive
DESCRIPTION:Board of Education\n\nEight action items\, most of them spending. The board accepted a $225\,000 school safety grant\, authorized security camera and server replacements against it\, bought 1\,500 Chromebooks and classroom displays\, approved the capital outlay request going to the county commissioners\, and renewed the teletherapy contract that has served 218 students since early 2024.\n\nTwo accountability items also came up: the alternative grading model for One Academy\, the district's alternative school\, and an amendment letting schools re-give end-of-grade and end-of-course tests during the school year rather than only over the summer\, after the state changed the rule ten days earlier.\n\nWatch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-9sC0c5jcM\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/2599

SUMMARY:Chatham County Schools: Regular Session
LOCATION:Central Services Board Room 468 Renaissance Drive
DESCRIPTION:Board of Education\n\nA week before school opened\, the board picked an architect for three new gymnasiums at Bennett\, Bonlee and Silk Hope\, hired contractors to put air conditioning in six gymnasiums that have never had it\, and approved this year's consolidated federal grant application.\n\nThe superintendent's report was mostly about money the district is losing from above. The state's stopgap budget carries no raises\, the state stopped paying for Advanced Placement exams\, and Chatham lost 51 NC Pre-K slots. The board also disclosed from its evaluation that the superintendent declined a 5 percent performance bonus and that it added a year to his contract.\n\nWatch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVW_v6eNj6s\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/2601

SUMMARY:Chatham County Schools: Regular Session
LOCATION:Central Services Board Room 468 Renaissance Drive
DESCRIPTION:Board of Education\n\nThe board reported an $80\,000 settlement out of closed session\, took up its capital request to the county for 2027 through 2033\, and approved two outside partnerships: a tiny-house construction program running in three high schools and a YMCA after-school program at Virginia Cross Elementary paid for by a federal grant.\n\nThe superintendent used his time for a budget update rather than announcements. Chatham is operating on last year's state funding with no approved state budget\, waiting on federal money held up by the government shutdown\, and covering charter school enrollment it did not project. The board also accepted two donations from the Chatham Education Foundation and named its voting delegates for the state school boards conference.\n\nWatch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0q9oLcztK8w\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/2603
