Contract Approval for Innovamat Math Pilot Program
The Board is scheduled to approve a $15,000 contract with Innovamat Education, Inc. for a math intervention pilot program. The vendor’s program includes a personalized practice app (‘Atlas Math’) and requires student data for ‘rostering,’ creating potential exposure related to student data privacy and parental consent for data sharing with a third-party vendor.
Intake Action
PRE-VOTE ACTION: Item 4 approves a contract with Innovamat. Send a pre-adoption letter to the Board advising them to obtain and review the vendor’s data sharing and privacy agreement before the vote to ensure compliance with student privacy laws. Request a copy of the full contract, terms and conditions, and data sharing agreement.

Policy Text Not Available – Nursing Services MOU
The board is approving an annual Memorandum of Understanding for nursing services. The text of the MOU is not available in the agenda packet, which prevents analysis of its compliance with parental rights regarding student health services, screenings, and consent.
Intake Action
PULL THE DOCUMENT: For Item 5, retrieve the referenced ‘MOU’ for Nursing Services from the official agenda link before the vote. Confirm the language regarding parental notification and consent for any health screenings, counseling, or services provided to students.
