What Chineva Early said on Sep 14, 2026

I want to say the bond is a lot of money. It is a big ask. Without the money, we will not be able to do the things we need to do. We will not be able to get the tools. And yes, we need to be accountable for that money.Chineva EarlyBoard President · Eastpointe Community Schools Board of Education · Sep 14, 2026Watch the full meeting from 57:25

On the map · Phones in school

August 24, 2026

The board discussed phones in school.

Its first meeting on phones in the year we read; phones came up at 2 of its meetings. A faint dot on the map: we had read too few of its earlier meetings to call it new.
