From the meeting
The board was scheduled to review a draft policy for using metal detectors and other weapons detection equipment on school grounds. Administration said it had drafted the policy in consultation with legal counsel because current search policy did not cover non-intrusive screening sweeps or threat-based screenings. This is a policy-shaping signal for future safety technology use, but no purchase or vendor was named.
The next real decision point was the board's consideration of the policy.

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