What's on this agenda

Wake County's school board sets its fee schedule for 2026-27 on 21 July and renews the contracts that keep the buildings running: roofing inspection, glass, specialty hardware, general construction in all four regions, custodial cleaning, mould remediation, asbestos abatement, duct cleaning, landscaping and playground mulch.

Larger items sit behind that list. A resolution asks the county to appropriate money for the continuous capital improvement programme, and the board takes the state's facility needs survey report — the document that feeds a bond case. It also marks the fiftieth anniversary of the merger that created the Wake County Public School System out of the Raleigh city and county districts.

Summarized from the published agenda. Read the agenda itself before acting on it.
