At its March 18 meeting the Unionville‑Chadds Ford School District board approved a package of curriculum, policy and facilities items in a series of voice votes.
Routine business: The board bundled routine agenda items (meeting minutes, bill list ratification and budget transfers) and approved them by voice vote.
Curriculum and technology: The board approved the AP Statistics textbook (agenda item 4.1), a penetration test and gap analysis (4.2) and a network refresh for E‑Rate (4.3). Each passed by recorded voice vote.
Policy: The board approved several policies on first or final reading (agenda items 5.1–5.4 and 5.3 specifically for policy 805.2) by unanimous votes. After public comment on proposed policy 903 the board moved policy 903 and its administrative guide (903AG) to first reading for April for additional solicitor review and community input rather than voting on it that night.

Patton Middle School ($50,888); BRP Air refrigeration equipment for an elementary walk‑in cooler ($11,472); partial roof restoration at Patton with Garland Roofing ($602,222); and roof replacement work at Unionville High School with Garland Roofing ($1,605,008). The board said funding will come from the long‑range facilities plan where noted.
