The board adopted an online learning day plan for the 2025–26 school year to allow the district to use online instruction to make up missed days due to closures; the plan authorizes online learning for up to three additional school days when closures would otherwise cause the district to exceed allowable minutes.

Other approved renewals and annual licenses included phone-system support with Business Communication Specialists ($18,621 for 2025–26); Amplify M-Class dyslexia screening ($11,232); an ECLA agreement tied to Senate Bill 29 ($1,000); an IXL site license for grades 2–8 ($33,150); MAP testing licenses from NWEA for grades 2–5 (listed in the packet at $15,950); and RAS Plus and RAS Plus ELL reading intervention licenses ($13,940) with Title I and Title III cost splits as noted in the agenda.

The resolution recited the statutory factors listed in the Ohio Revised Code — including time, number of pupils, cost of equipment and personnel, disruption to existing transportation schedules and availability of other reimbursable transportation — and cited the statutory authority for offering payment in lieu of service.

The board directed that the list of students covered by the declaration be kept on file in the transportation office. The resolution was read into the record as part of the board’s agenda; the payment amount and reference to Ohio Revised Code Section 3327.01 were included in the motion language presented to the board.

The action was presented as a compliance item for the Ohio Department of Education and was approved as part of the July 16 agenda.","The board adopted a resolution under Ohio Revised Code provisions declaring it impractical to transport specified students to their selected schools for 2025–26 and offering parents $607.15 per student as payment in lieu of transportation.",{"_32":86,"_34":35,"_36":37,"_38":87,"_40":88,"_42":89,"_44":45,"_46":90,"_48":91,"_50":92,"_52":93,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":94,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":95,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":67,"_71":72,"_73":72},6164684,"Board approves special-education placements and extra summer services; general fund to cover costs",455,2384000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5427820-bf843f6cc6a15615293c74e3662088c8&start=2384&end=2839","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5427820-bf843f6cc6a15615293c74e3662088c8/thumbnail_2384000.jpg","/articles/6164684/Twinsburg-City/School-Districts/Ohio/Board-approves-special-education-placements-and-extra-summer-services-general-fund-to-cover-costs","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6164684-654a10ec8f1f9feb86f12fa7e4fc0319/orig.mp4?Expires=1770211899&Signature=GBubEnsemergyfV~ZOW~1r2gFFo~fYOfyfg3cX8mBUYREqk2vWYOOSITWghydMCkoGY1iAJHEUcPAzTkQeAY0Vl0u1JGg5LmHUsYCJ77GG~FjeV0Fid2~gBFo9btfaqyJ4eSDJayUhDsYwOA8TNl3UN-KrwW6odIIeHbOHkg29VYX2YtZFrZ9VO489LxYxcShUXpMpcsOaWZb2ZIfVLICSSogVLgSUf8-8KS-9VKJL3AGdKZ3hwQUFQgV6IiB2-KsUhQsgR35SPbgMpoHPZY8GAMpN2z9Dc0MWQtvZTtY-vA9i1ll2T5KMaXrQu67-ORISC2Rly99vdbcK7E7bzWZg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Twinsburg Board of Education on July 16 approved several special-education contracts and summer services billed to the general fund.

The board approved a contract with Education Alternatives to place 15 students for the 2025–26 school year at a tuition cost the meeting read as $613,522. The board also approved two additional summer ESY (extended school year) payments: $4,498.03 to Applewood Centers Inc. for one student’s summer ESY services at Gerson School and $5,800 to Education Alternatives for another student’s recently authorized summer ESY placement. Meeting materials indicated both ESY payments were general fund expenditures tied to newly qualified services.

Separately, the board approved an amendment to the nursing-services agreement with Akron Children’s Hospital to provide nursing for kindergarten screenings; the amendment increased the contract by $1,978, a general fund expense, according to the agenda.

These items were included in the board’s consent and new-business agenda and were approved by the board during the meeting.","The board approved a $613,522 contract with Education Alternatives for 15 IEP tuition placements and additional summer ESY payments totaling $10,298.03 for two students; an amendment to Akron Children’s Hospital nursing services added $1,978.",{"_32":97,"_34":35,"_36":37,"_38":98,"_40":99,"_42":100,"_44":101,"_46":102,"_48":103,"_50":104,"_52":105,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":106,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":107,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":67,"_71":72,"_73":72},6164689,"Twinsburg treasurer reports fiscal 2024–25 general fund closeout, local revenue rise offset by state cuts",1593,533000,2126000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5427820-bf843f6cc6a15615293c74e3662088c8&start=533&end=2126","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5427820-bf843f6cc6a15615293c74e3662088c8/thumbnail_533000.jpg","/articles/6164689/Twinsburg-City/School-Districts/Ohio/Twinsburg-treasurer-reports-fiscal-202425-general-fund-closeout-local-revenue-rise-offset-by-state-cuts","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6164689-abb7c3425f341356ea1e51f83fb129ff/orig.mp4?Expires=1770211899&Signature=en7a97pHyplHXtD8Ri3VYnGAnFv6WlCHPUcglUiV3qoRq52-b0v4gUTmHOSLzlAYc3aNg5cBo8rfeMI7aI06xQ37GiWqyLDI6-rP5n5yX3bsEiCb-c7YhtoRMKmoke6WMNyNumjaEusLpl266PmgpTcHccWRp1hhMVE39ZEunxv-D9KKL0sRf8EmBysYoGi70fehJ5T60WbCznG8w2oe2bIxXoB~bX71RI8c3H4aksO7meUYUJmdnjIZ1sZgOgzbhU3IEkw~4uYLpDWMcEJUpDXUFAXMr9QceWcCHVoQRUEOhKno3JmCjuYXLmvrRr3y98aYT1-sz7ftffH-k3m3sQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","At a July 16 board meeting, Twinsburg finance staff presented a fiscal year-end overview showing general fund receipts of $60,622,000 and expenditures of $61,534,000 for the most recent fiscal year, leaving a June 30 unencumbered fund balance of $17,358,000 (about $547,000 of that balance was encumbered for payments due after June 30).

The presenter, identified in the meeting as Julia, said local property tax collections produced a $3.96 million increase in local revenues compared with the prior year — driven in part by collections from an emergency levy approved in November 2023 — while the district experienced a nearly $1.5 million reduction in state foundation formula payments compared with fiscal year 2024.

Julia reported expenditure-per-pupil and revenue-per-pupil figures from the most recent state reports: expenditures per pupil listed at $16,838.82 and revenue per pupil at $16,082.69 (the presenter noted the state report lags one year).

On the district’s investment portfolio, Julia said the portfolio yield was 4.07% with an average maturity of 2.1 years, and the district planned to maintain liquidity and avoid longer maturities while rates remain high. She also noted a special-education threshold reimbursement of $377,000 the district received after meeting the state threshold in the cited year; the presenter clarified the reimbursement covers costs the district already incurred.

Board members asked whether the jump in EdChoice/educational choice counts represented students who were previously resident Twinsburg students or students who lived elsewhere and now appeared on the district’s EdChoice count; Julia and one board member said total enrollment only fell by 119 students from 2023 to 2024, indicating many of the increased EdChoice counts were students not previously enrolled in the district.

The board did not take separate action on the financial presentation; subsequent agenda items included approvals of monthly financial reports and expenditures.","District finance staff reported July 16 that general fund receipts for fiscal 2025 were $60,622,000, expenditures $61,534,000, and a June 30 fund balance of $17,358,000; local tax collections rose while state foundation funding declined.",{"_32":109,"_34":35,"_36":37,"_38":110,"_40":111,"_42":112,"_44":113,"_46":114,"_48":115,"_50":116,"_52":117,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":118,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":119,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":67,"_71":72,"_73":72},6164694,"Twinsburg board hires Steven J.

Marlowe as interim superintendent for the 2025–26 school year, with the contract to begin Aug. 1, 2025, and expire July 31, 2026. The board also authorized paying Marlowe for up to five days of work before Aug. 1 at his per-diem rate to assist with the transition.

The move follows a period of leadership transition in the district; the board said Marlowe previously served as Twinsburg superintendent and has continued to support districts in the region since retiring. Board leadership described Marlowe’s local ties and experience as reasons for recommending him for a one-year term while the district conducts a permanent superintendent search.

Board president (reading the recommendation) said of Marlowe, “Steve is ready to jump in, build meaningful relationships, and help foster a positive culture for both our staff and families.” The board thanked Michael Setlick, who served as interim superintendent earlier in the summer, and district staff for managing recent operational challenges while the district searched for interim leadership.

The motion to approve the employment agreement was moved by Mrs. Travis and seconded by Mrs. Davis; the roll call vote was 5–0 in favor. The board said it will work with an external agency to lead a public search for a permanent superintendent for the 2026–27 school year and intends to include staff, students, families and the broader community in that process.

Marlowe’s appointment was followed by a brief photo and congratulatory remarks from board members.

The board also approved as part of the same meeting other routine personnel and contract items listed in the meeting packet.","The Twinsburg Board of Education voted unanimously July 16 to employ Steven J.
