The Finance Committee of the Council Rock School District convened on August 14, 2025, to discuss several important topics as the new school year approaches. A key focus of the meeting was the transition to a new lunch payment vendor, MySchoolBucks, replacing the previous service, MyPaymentsPlus. Parents were reminded to create accounts with the new vendor to ensure a smooth process for lunch payments. The district assured families that any remaining balances from the old system would transfer over, and support would be available for any issues that arise.

In addition to the lunch payment update, the committee addressed various agreements and contracts that require renewal. These included the stop loss policy, special education services with PowerSchool, and agreements with substitute trainers and before-and-after school care providers. The committee also discussed a new bid for equipment for a sensory room, aimed at enhancing support for students with special needs.

The meeting featured an investment update from Kevin Carbutt of Cornerstone, providing insights into the district's financial strategies. The committee emphasized the importance of clear communication with parents regarding these changes and the upcoming school year.

Overall, the meeting highlighted the district's proactive approach to financial management and its commitment to ensuring a seamless transition for families as they prepare for the new academic year.
