Why it matters: Adopting the school calendar fixes next year’s instructional schedule, the five‑year forecast frames the district’s budget assumptions amid proposed state changes to reserve and forecasting rules, and approval of successor agreements and personnel actions finalizes compensation and staffing that affect operations.

Key approvals and votes at the May 28 meeting (motions passed by roll call):

• 2026–27 school calendar — Motion approved (roll call: Miss Grosek: Yes; Mr. Hess: Yes; Mr. Tressey: Yes; Mr. Pinaro: Yes; Miss Green: Yes). The board adopted the proposed calendar for the 2026–27 school year.

• 2025–26 student handbooks — Motion approved (roll call: Miss Grosek: Yes; Mr. Hess: Yes; Mr. Tressey: Yes; Mr. Pinaro: Yes; Miss Grieve: Yes). The board approved handbooks for the coming year.

• Volunteers list — Motion approved with one abstention (roll call: Miss Grosek: Yes; Mr. Hess: Yes; Mr. Tressey: Yes; Mr. Pinaro: Yes; Miss Grieve: Abstain). The volunteer appointments were approved; the transcript shows one abstention by a board member.

• Treasurer’s financial statements (04/30/2025) and donations — Motions approved (roll calls recorded; board unanimous where noted). The treasurer presented April financial statements; the board approved them and accepted listed donations.

• Five‑year forecast and related addenda — Motion approved (roll call: Miss Grosek: Yes; Mr. Hess: Yes; Mr. Tressey: Yes; Mr. Pinaro: Yes; Miss Grieve: Yes). The district’s forecast covers the period beginning July 1, 2025, through mid‑2029 and reflects revenue assumptions including proceeds from a 5‑mill continuing expense levy passed Nov. 5, 2024. The treasurer told the board the forecast uses conservative state revenue estimates and adjusted expenditure assumptions, including updated successor contracts and a lower health‑insurance rate for 2026. The forecast and addenda were approved by roll call.

• Addendum No. 3 (financial transactions / transfers related to successor agreements) — Motion approved by roll call. The addendum includes transfers out connected to one‑time stipend and merit payments contained in recently completed successor agreements for bargaining groups.

• Minutes of prior meetings — Motion approved (regular board minutes 04/23/2025 and special meeting 05/15/2025). The board approved the minutes by roll call.

• Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the Mayfield Board of Education and the NEA — Motion approved (Miss Grosek moved; Mr. Tressey seconded; roll call: unanimous yes). The board approved the MOU as presented.

• Construction manager at risk (addendum) — Motion approved by roll call.

• Resolution to adopt special education model policies and procedures — Motion approved by roll call. The board adopted updated special‑education model policies and procedures.

• ESC of Western Reserve service agreement — Motion approved by roll call. The board approved the district’s service agreement with the ESC of Western Reserve.

• Modifications to compensation schedules (secretarial, administrative and treasurer compensation) — Motions approved by roll call. The board approved updates to the exempt secretarial and administrative compensation schedules and a modification to treasurer compensation as presented.

After the approvals, the board moved into executive session under Ohio Revised Code Section 121.22(G)(1) to consider appointment of public employees; the meeting adjourned after the executive session with no further public business recorded.

Treasurer’s context: The district treasurer briefed the board on the forecast’s assumptions (the forecast period beginning July 1, 2025, through mid‑2029), noting the forecast incorporates (1) proceeds from the 5‑mill continuing levy passed Nov. 5, 2024; (2) conservative state revenue estimates mirroring a lower scenario in the current budget discussions; and (3) updated salary and benefit assumptions tied to recently completed successor agreements. The treasurer also noted the district adjusted the assumed health‑insurance trend for 2026 from 7% to 2% for planning purposes and explained the board had sent a letter to area legislators regarding House Bill 96 and proposed limits on cash reserves.

Sowers said his son boarded after another student, and that the other student later moved. He said the boy complied with a staff direction only after an assistant principal intervened and that the driver repeatedly called his name and declared “this is my bus” as students reacted. Sowers also said his daughter was left on the bus during the incident, causing “unnecessary separation of siblings.”

Sowers said he requested review of the bus footage and followed up by phone and email on April 8, April 9, May 2, May 13 and again at the May 28 meeting, but he had not received a clear explanation of whether the footage had been reviewed or what the findings were. He asked the board to \"conduct a thorough review of this incident and the protocols surrounding the handling of this video evidence and student discipline,\" and asked the district to adopt “timely, transparent communications” when incidents occur. He said he would prefer not to involve legal counsel or the media but would consider those options if the matter continued to be ignored.

The comment came during the district’s public comment period; the board acknowledged Sowers and moved on to other business. The meeting transcript does not record a formal staff report, investigation result, or a board motion tied to the request during the May 28 meeting.

The parent’s statement raises questions about how the district uses and responds to camera footage on buses, how disciplinary steps are documented for students with disabilities or attention disorders, and what timeline families should expect for responses to requests for investigative footage.

The board did not announce any immediate follow-up at the meeting. Sowers asked for a board-led review and clearer communications; the transcript records no formal action or vote on the request.","A Mayfield parent told the school board his son was removed from a bus after a seating dispute on April 8 and that repeated requests to review surveillance video have not produced a response; he asked the board for a full review and clearer communications protocols.","actionData","errors"]
