    <summary>Staff provided an update on bus operations with NRT, noting that driver staffing and service reliability have stabilized significantly since the fall. Upgrades including turn-by-turn GPS and live bus security camera access have been implemented, though rollout of student RFID tap cards has experienced delays. The superintendent noted the district is assessing contractual penalties to withhold payment for technology features that were delayed or non-operational. Outcome: Information accepted; administration to meet with NRT in June regarding penalty adjustments.</summary>
