Buys T-Mobile phone lines and hotspots through a state purchasing contract, up to $2,671,704 a year
The board declares it is in the district's best interest to buy from T-Mobile through an existing contract with the National Association of State Procurement Officials (NASPO) ValuePoint program instead of running its own bid. Lines of service are capped at $2,671,704 per fiscal year and hotspot devices at a separate $520,800, for July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2028; the text does not say whether the hotspot amount is yearly. It also approves the E-Rate (federal schools and libraries funding program) agreement and addendum.
