What's on this agenda

The Wake County Board of Education's Tuesday evening meeting includes a report on 2025-26 testing and accountability results and a proclamation for Arts in Education Week. Facilities business covers a guaranteed maximum price for Briarcliff Elementary, phase 1B bids for safety and security hardware upgrades, change orders at Ligon Middle and the Paramount Parkway site, and easements to the Town of Cary at Panther Creek High and to CCUD Holdings at Washington Elementary.

Personnel items include the 2026 Read to Achieve teacher performance bonus and a local bonus for returning employees the state bonus does not cover. The board also hears first readings of Policy 7525 on parental leave and Policy 7710 on professional memberships, and takes up contracts with Soliant Health, Presidio Networked Solutions and Attendance Works. The district publishes item titles only, so the agenda gives no dollar figures or other detail.

Summarized from the published agenda. Read the agenda itself before acting on it.

3 items were added after the agenda first went up

A late addition is how the public gets surprised: somebody reads the agenda, decides nothing on it concerns them, and the thing that does is added afterwards. They are marked in the list below.

The day counts are an upper bound. Governments publish what is on an agenda, not when each item was put there, so these are measured from when this site first saw the item — which can be later than when the clerk added it, never earlier.
