From the meeting
At its September 16, 2026 meeting, the board considered revised 2026-27 Universal Prekindergarten Program contracts tied to an anticipated $4,072,269 grant from the New York State Education Department. The program would serve up to 309 students and fund teachers, speech pathology, school psychology, clerical support, nursing, and building support. It also named outside providers and purchases including Happy House Nursery School, the YWCA of Elmira and the Twin Tiers, the Economic Opportunity Program, Arnot Health, and classroom furniture.
The recommendation was to approve the anticipated contracts and authorize the superintendent to execute documents once the grant is approved.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
