THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
The superintendent reported that Bouse Elementary School District will be upgrading its existing Cat 5 cabling to Cat 6 in order to install Starlink for the 2026-2027 academic year. This network and connectivity work is described as part of a broader technology transformation of the entire school campus, with only a few desktop computers remaining to be updated. No vendor, contract, or procurement method is named in the minutes, indicating that detailed implementation plans and potential sourcing may still be in progress. For IT and low-voltage vendors, this suggests an opportunity around structured cabling design, installation, Starlink deployment, and ongoing network support. A productive conversation would focus on helping the district scope the Cat 6 upgrade, optimize Starlink performance for a small rural campus, and plan lifecycle support for the nearly completed tech transformation.
Project is framed as completing the campus-wide technology transformation, aside from a few remaining desktop computers.
