From the meeting
The report says the school principal works with district administrators during grant writing to identify needs, and after grant approval helps complete payroll and procurement for approved projects. That makes the principal a key buying trigger for grant-funded work, even though no specific grant is named. Sellers should view this as an ongoing grant-to-procurement pipeline tied to student support and instructional needs.
