In a recent school board meeting, members focused on key administrative updates and the approval of several resolutions as the new academic year approaches. The meeting commenced with a public hearing on the district-wide safety plan, which was opened and closed without public comment, indicating a lack of community engagement on this critical issue.

Board President welcomed two new members and acknowledged the start of the school year, emphasizing the importance of collaboration among faculty, staff, and students. Superintendent Dr. Philip Benante, in his second day in the district, praised the successful conclusion of the previous school year and highlighted the resilience of the staff following a significant flood at Titusville School, which resulted in over 10,000 gallons of water entering the building. He commended the facility staff for their swift response, allowing the school to remain operational for the moving-up ceremony.

The board proceeded to approve several resolutions, including the confirmation of Dr. Benante's appointment, a revision of the school calendar, and a memorandum of agreement regarding elementary delayed openings. The meeting concluded with a brief discussion on committee reports, which are on hiatus for the summer, and a call for board reflections, though no additional comments were made.

Overall, the meeting underscored the board's commitment to ensuring a smooth transition into the new school year while addressing safety and operational challenges.
