From the meeting
At the August 25, 2026 meeting, Dr. Matthew Missius reported that MAPSA's E-Rate meeting with the FCC would lose support for WiFi and internet and that technology budgets could be scaled back. He also said funds may be available for literacy grants and reading coaches.
This is an early funding signal, not a procurement, but it flags possible pressure on network spending and future grant-backed staffing.
