Speakers described a cultural shift at Richfield, saying increased adult access and frequent on-site volunteering sometimes disrupted instruction and placed pressure on teachers. One speaker urged the district to review school safety plans and recommended the sheriff's department review building procedures to ensure consistency with other districts. A teacher who identified herself during public comment said she has observed volunteers and parents demand access in ways that have at times undermined staff and added to operational strain.

Why it matters: public trust, school climate and consistent safety practices affect student learning and staff retention. Commenters asked the board to prioritize teacher support and consider clearer limits on volunteer access and board-member presence in buildings.

Details and examples: speakers recounted instances in which parent presence at school events and regular volunteer interactions produced differing impacts for students (for some children seeing a parent during the school day caused distress). One commenter asked that board members be mindful of their role when visiting buildings to avoid being treated as administrators rather than family members. Board members and staff acknowledged the comments and asked the administration to consider reviewing practices and safety plans.

Procedure and next steps: the board did not take formal action during the meeting but indicated the concerns would be considered by administrators. Speakers asked for greater attention to teacher boundaries, uniform safety-plan reviews and consistent practices across buildings.

The board moved into executive session later in the meeting for discussion of employment of a public employee; no action was announced when the public meeting resumed.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Revere Board of Education Meeting, June 24, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","Several speakers at the June 24 Revere Local board meeting urged the district to reassess volunteer access, school safety plans and the role of board members in buildings, citing a fractured culture at Richfield Elementary and Middle Schools.","taxTitle","Revere Local, School Districts, Ohio","taxId",56332,"location","Ohio","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6186795,"Revere Local treasurer reports near-term budget variance; district outlines federal Title and CCIP funding uses",1610,330000,1940000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5074266-8fd6e0903fb84f699a70781d878f59c9&start=330&end=1940","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5074266-8fd6e0903fb84f699a70781d878f59c9/thumbnail_330000.jpg","/articles/6186795/Ohio/Revere-Local-treasurer-reports-near-term-budget-variance-district-outlines-federal-Title-and-CCIP-funding-uses","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6186795-c47a5326c2c04332d9dee3717ee8cd42/orig.mp4?Expires=1771156399&Signature=Bq7kU4XKb5bIopszWlVispnW9kL-8~tPh2lKHsN9ZpHvSkgfLxtsCDwO5ZdNBE7zSc0DJsF2c9amHB~y4VKaWpPc3nQwJq4ZXoIpXX69aI16pzNxawRBC8wS8RGKRIJEd569MwCcD-oV1Zd-PACtS9WyqP6TCCFEQpvZLoqG8AOAN3Qgmj~JkZTzzk3heEeGqINja38fxQdcZl1l87y01uXakVbKTgTPIkkE1x4NA~e-TtxV~iKIUe2PcmlFKTcDi5x1GfTgNaDui9Vkk2r0ezMhLLavBHLVoFI3negpCd0vGGcVMY1w53uvytlSiRsBxqh1ax2~XcNI5Rr0OlxX1g__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Revere Local Schools' finance staff reported a modest budget variance and summarized federal funding programs and community donations at the board meeting on June 24.

The finance presentation noted revenue was about $22,000 short of the administrator's estimate; on the expense side the district said it was running slightly negative—\"for 11 months, slightly negative $200,000\"—driven in part by higher spending rates for supplies (92% spent on budgeted supplies versus the typical 82%) and slightly higher county fiscal officer tax collection fees as tax collections increased. District staff told the board the district has sufficient cash reserves to cover the variance.

Why it matters: the year-end position and the amended appropriations matter to auditors and to the district's fiscal planning for FY26. The treasurer said he packages monthly budget adjustments into year-end amended appropriations to simplify audits.

Donations and scholarships: the meeting listed a series of community donations and scholarships that the district accepted, including $3,000 from RMS PTA for a Washington, D.C., trip; multiple $3,000 scholarships from foundations and individuals; $8,000 from the Revere Schools Foundation for scholarships; and smaller gifts directed to student assistance funds. Trustees thanked donors for community generosity.

Federal funds and CCIP/1Plan: district staff explained the state's shift to a new consolidated application and planning process (the CCIP moving to a 1 plan platform through EdSteps). The presentation covered Title I–IV and IDEA funds and how allocations support literacy interventions, preschool, staff salaries and summer programming. The district highlighted a Title I summer program that runs Monday nights for several weeks, serving identified students and families to prevent summer learning loss.

Procedure and next steps: the board approved amended appropriations measures for FY26 and the current fiscal year adjustments and accepted the donations as presented. Staff said state allocations for the new platform were delayed but expected to arrive and that the district will complete required grant submissions on the statutory timeline.","At its June 24 meeting Revere Local's finance presentation showed a small negative variance for the fiscal year and listed multiple community donations; district staff also explained CCIP/Title funding allocations and how those federal funds support summer and special education programming.",{"_33":89,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":90,"_41":91,"_43":92,"_45":93,"_47":94,"_49":95,"_51":96,"_53":97,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":98,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":99,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6186800,"Revere Local approves retirements, hires and personnel changes in consent agenda",211,669000,880000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5074266-8fd6e0903fb84f699a70781d878f59c9&start=669&end=880","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5074266-8fd6e0903fb84f699a70781d878f59c9/thumbnail_669000.jpg","/articles/6186800/Ohio/Revere-Local-approves-retirements-hires-and-personnel-changes-in-consent-agenda","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6186800-9aeae180ac8631482c1c6696a3298e2f/orig.mp4?Expires=1771156399&Signature=e~41tsDjvFMZbyMMouXDrb2VysxqrLrYN-mcJVtEdx0U5XqT23AJS-S9QXoARM~O-FXFzACurVeiyUHoQZB4Swjr-sHg~cDRHEgw918E5jQGUdEmWRwrLXI-CbBLZeC5hGbsQIE4vV-~WCMYf3mFZyEmaJHsLKIleMsoZ3VqAkZiutiR3pmwRi4FttToNIDK9I0snSRaFLLUrhK~QtFH-Y-WQl1YUIPxKEjz4-G~N-uAaCalAwaecATeQ3TVXHg0G7cDCgiwODi~5T-cvBZygqhp8jRnYoJ7iB~oNX2AWnL0JYDI0VpfXxQViiHHMbXS6MG3D5DxzGIGof20Qx0JLA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Revere Local Board of Education on June 24 approved a package of personnel actions including retirements, new hires, position changes and supplemental contracts as part of a consent agenda.

Superintendent White recommended acceptance of retirements submitted for the purpose of retirement from two long-serving administrators; the board moved, seconded and approved the recommendation. The board then approved multiple hires and position changes included in the consent agenda: changes in assignment, extended hours for staff, co-curricular and athletic supplemental contracts for the 2025–26 school year and several resignations.

Why it matters: the votes finalize staffing and assignment changes that will take effect ahead of the 2025–26 school year. The board approved an assistant-principal appointment for the middle school and a number of certified and noncertified personnel actions that the district said are intended to fill vacancies and expand services.

Details: action items bundled into the consent agenda included leave of absence approval, position changes (for example an eighth-grade mathematics assignment), new hires, additional hours for staff working on kindergarten early insurance appeals, co‑curricular non‑athletic and athletic supplemental contracts, and an administrative promotion for Ryan Warner from intervention specialist to assistant principal at Revere Middle School. The board also approved extended time for an athletic-department secretary, the summer 2025 paint crew and other routine personnel items.

Student-services and vendor contracts: the board approved a slate of contracts for student placements and specialized services. Those agreements included contracts with Kidzlink School District(s) for student placements, PSI Associates for nursing services, Community Family Centered Services for deaf services, music therapy providers, BCBA behavior specialist services, Summit County ESC for student placement, extended‑school‑year vision and speech services, Thrive Early Learning Center and Applewood Centers for placements, and translation support agreements.

Procedure: most of these items were approved as grouped consent (motions made and seconded); roll-call votes were recorded by the board clerk. No substantial debate on individual personnel items was recorded during the June 24 meeting.","At its June 24 meeting the Revere Local Board approved retirements, new hires, position changes and supplemental contracts as part of its consent agenda and approved several student-services and vendor contracts.",{"_33":101,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":102,"_41":103,"_43":104,"_45":105,"_47":106,"_49":107,"_51":108,"_53":109,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":110,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":111,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6186805,"Revere Local board gives first reading to amended Parents' Bill of Rights, schedules community review",315,1175000,1490000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5074266-8fd6e0903fb84f699a70781d878f59c9&start=1175&end=1490","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5074266-8fd6e0903fb84f699a70781d878f59c9/thumbnail_1175000.jpg","/articles/6186805/Ohio/Revere-Local-board-gives-first-reading-to-amended-Parents-Bill-of-Rights-schedules-community-review","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6186805-9a0f6a0ce6f597b11cf6e723d41a478e/orig.mp4?Expires=1771156399&Signature=fof3mWn9m~8uNU2wQv5Y5R5KkWeIKIiUhIyl~V4iJLBcRCg6TqvpYtPuDcXzMBLvUUXy9H8vnHIfe3owKVtbhyOiSgYPjzx3-N~mZiir5MqMs9X4JM-sg62yrgzjF6RCcyaccK4ZL-DUczWhIUXHcV0VvSgRH3w1A81eHFww46WOMYlQce9Czv1eHozfY7q-MeFNauJVBmOb0E4B~axQZFVGL8kbPWURL~3I3lr34-~ocCSX5POjE4eaHuZBV0aMzYXVJgpL1xkp3aI~59zifcuMV~p7rRAfQh8Qv~s7TvZyXNrmLTmityUpQxHfJENfpMfFgfEKexgYMpdV9WIOWQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Revere Local Board of Education on June 24 gave a first reading to an amendment to its Parents' Bill of Rights that would allow schools to notify parents \"or in writing and/or verbally of any substantial change.\" The motion to amend was made and seconded during the board's meeting and advanced as a first read.

The amendment was presented as a narrow change to paragraph 2 of the policy. Board members and the superintendent framed the vote as an interim step: the board approved the change for first reading and directed the superintendent to gather broader input before a final vote.

Why it matters: board members said the policy has implications for student safety, parent access to information and compliance with state requirements. One board member said the district must have the policy in place by July because of state-imposed timelines; Superintendent White told the board he will run a “listening and learning” series to solicit feedback from parents, staff and students and aims to return recommended amendments in the fall.

Details: the board discussed several trade-offs during the hearing. Some trustees argued limiting notice to written only could impede timely contact for families who are separated, have custody issues or live outside the district. Others urged stronger, in-person communications involving counselors for situations where in-person contact could enhance student safety. The superintendent described plans to host multiple sessions, including Zoom times in August and meetings when school resumes, and said he expects to bring proposed amendments back for consideration by the September meeting.

Procedure and next steps: the board advanced the amendment as a first reading (no final adoption at the June 24 meeting). The superintendent said he is scheduling sessions in August and early September for staff, families and community members to provide input; the board indicated it expects further amendments and another formal vote later this year.

Public input and context: the board heard several public comments and vocal concerns during the meeting that fed into the discussion about how the district notifies families and how staff should handle sensitive student matters. Board members emphasized the intent to protect students while balancing practicality for families and staff.

The board did not adopt a final policy at the June 24 meeting; the item remains subject to revision after the scheduled community engagement and legal review.","The Revere Local Board of Education held a first reading of an amendment to the district's Parents' Bill of Rights on June 24, approving language to allow verbal notification of \"substantial changes\" and directing the superintendent to hold community listening sessions this summer and early fall.","actionData","errors"]
