Superintendent Phyllis Harrington presented an addendum recommending the hire of Jarratt Rubin; the board voted to approve the appointment. The board also accepted the retirement of longtime elementary teacher Amy Simon (effective December, per the administration) and acknowledged the resignation of high school dean Luke Gackstetter, who is leaving for an assistant-principal position in another district.

The board approved multiple employment recommendations across categories: professional personnel, civil service, hourly employees, summer school staff, DASA (harassment) personnel, and high‑school and middle‑school fall and winter coaching rosters for 2025-26. The board also approved appointments for several coordinators and district roles (records management officer, purchasing agent, privacy officer and others) and accepted an addendum naming district personnel where noted.

The superintendent and board recognized new hires in the audience and thanked departing staff. The board noted summer programming — including district summer school and DACA summer programs starting July 7 — and approved staffing so programs can begin.

Ending: Personnel motions passed by unanimous “Aye” responses in the meeting; administration will complete required paperwork and onboarding for approved hires and will post related personnel actions in district records.

Harrington told the board that “a goal very rarely can be met in 1 year's time” and that goals are therefore reported as either met or in progress. She said the district completed a Global Citizenship course and K‑6 social studies curriculum updates, launched the SPIRE reading intervention and advanced multi-tiered systems of support (MTSS). The district is still finalizing computer science and digital fluency standards and an elementary integrated co‑teaching (ICT) model that will expand to additional schools over multiple years.

Harrington also highlighted technology initiatives — including a full‑time instructional technology coach and planned work on artificial intelligence in the classroom — and facilities improvements such as turf-field projects and tennis-court renovations. On safety and security, she said the district will continue work with contractor Altaeris and Director of Safety and Security Sean Sharkey.

On early drop-off, Harrington reported the district surveyed elementary parents and received more than 300 responses. She said the responses showed some families would welcome an earlier morning option, but “a significant number are either satisfied with the current model,” which the district provides at no additional cost. Harrington recommended keeping the existing program (07:30 a.m. breakfast at no charge) because moving to an earlier drop-off would require a fee and parents raised concerns about that cost. The board did not move to change the practice; administration said it will continue to monitor participation and gather feedback.

Board members discussed the projected cost for an earlier paid option. One board member noted the estimated monthly cost to families could be about $200 for a five‑day week, and members suggested exploring grants or other funding if demand rises.

Ending: The board recorded the goals update for public posting to the district website and accepted the superintendent’s recommendation to maintain the current early drop-off and free breakfast arrangement while continuing to monitor family needs and participation.

Board members unanimously elected Michael D'Ambrosio as board president and Stuart (Stu) Kaplan as vice president. The board also approved appointments that the superintendent recommended for district clerk, district treasurer and deputy treasurer and confirmed a number of external service providers, including legal counsel, internal and external auditors, and fiscal advisors.

Superintendent Phyllis Harrington administered oaths and presented the slate of routine organizational items. The board approved the appointment of Frasier Fund as outside counsel under the retirement agreement terms ($24,500 plus hourly fees for extraordinary services) and named Alice Abrams as external auditor and Milwaukee Smith LLP as internal auditor for 2025-26. The board approved Capital Markets Advisors to provide fiscal services, contracted the Seneca Consulting Group for ACA consulting, Omni Group to manage the 403(b) program, and Professional Athletic Training Services PLC for athletic training services. The board also approved the district's list of depositories and established petty cash and other administrative funds for the year.

The board voted to adopt five policies that the administration said were required by changes in law, including a policy on harassment and grievance procedures under Title IX and an extreme heat conditions policy. The petty-cash reimbursement cap was revised from $25 to $50.

All motions on organizational appointments, contracts and policies were presented, seconded and approved with the standard roll-call procedure of “Aye”/“Any opposed? Any abstentions?”; the meeting transcript records the motions as passing without individual roll-call tallies recorded in the public minutes.

Board President Michael D'Ambrosio then turned the meeting over to the superintendent to continue the agenda.

Ending: The organizational actions set the district's administrative and vendor structure for 2025-26; routine approvals and policy adoptions concluded the reorganization portion of the meeting and the board proceeded to reports and presentations.
