The board approved 2026‑27 shared sports mergers and transportation with Chautauqua Lake CSD for football, girls swimming, and co‑ed track, plus several Westfield‑hosted merged teams and a ski club. This formalizes multi‑district athletic programs and shared busing of athletes. Transportation providers, scheduling software vendors, and athletic program service firms can use this as a signal that multi‑school logistics are in place and may need tools, routing support, or supplemental chartering.
