From the meeting
USD #388 and USD #489 Early Childhood Connections agreed to coordinate state and local funds to meet the 20% non-federal match for Head Start. USD #388 said it may provide equipment, supplies, and professional development at free or reduced cost to help satisfy the match. This is a grant-funding signal tied to preschool operations and staff development, not a standalone procurement.
It indicates ongoing budget coordination around Head Start support through the 2026-27 school year.
