\"It should be called more of a warehouse than a storage building,\" the superintendent said, describing plans to dedicate sections for computer storage and a counter workspace so IT staff members Caitlin and Matthew can repair devices outside their office areas.

The superintendent also reported repeated problems with recently installed HVAC units at Wadley. He said the district has contacted the project engineer, who will consult the manufacturer and the installation contractor to determine the source of the recurring failures. \"We've had several of those; they've had to work on those several times for those to be new units that have only been in a couple of years,\" he said.

On budget scheduling, the superintendent told the board the district must complete two budget-hearing meetings by the 15th of the coming month. He proposed holding the hearings the week before the regular meeting: a first hearing on the ninth and the regular board meeting on the 11th. The superintendent said staff member Bethany has been working on the budget and will submit required materials.

Board members were presented certificates for completing school-board governance-improvement training; the superintendent distributed the certificates during the meeting.

The superintendent asked whether board members had questions after each report; no substantive changes to the proposals were recorded in the transcript.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","2025 August 7 - Board Meeting","oneSentenceSummary","Superintendent reported the district will use a new multifunction building as a warehouse for Chromebooks, consumable textbooks and extra furniture, described HVAC problems at Wadley school with manufacturer and installer involved, and proposed budget-hearing dates to meet a mid-month deadline.","taxTitle","Randolph County Schools, School Districts, Alabama","taxId",60025,"location","Alabama","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_46":81,"_48":82,"_50":83,"_52":84,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":85,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":86,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":71,"_72":73,"_74":73},6483088,"Randolph County Schools board approves SRO contracts, meal prices, school zone signage, cheer trip and personnel actions",588,790000,1378000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5551453-262db01bb5d1d948cebb5109b7ab9c9c&start=790&end=1378","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5551453-262db01bb5d1d948cebb5109b7ab9c9c/thumbnail_790000.jpg","/articles/6483088/Alabama/Randolph-County-Schools-board-approves-SRO-contracts-meal-prices-school-zone-signage-cheer-trip-and-personnel-actions","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6483088-3bf970e0e3914e4826b77186bad38942/orig.mp4?Expires=1776150222&Signature=XejU1W~nuYqDc80QjFMQCK-5E6NraEINgK0bfhLXWeE26yiYRWX4AMgQAwovuP7c4pkSiu67ULVjHJvkli28WBF8Gl-Jp0cb6fl17Lg7dsyj-Bi0PFZ18HKH3yyu~4b~Am4bHLZc0Jk7T0pPQu1K~bo1jHWcdFVgPcqmLtDws8SLN3goUqMXBEwLY~ADKFYswc8QqKZznmrVBoywPLtHrhEa6D0CtoqM7izQ74nsLQF2JFBY0MV1umb99Sl9Gxe0H9EDzDPBt7llVfBJ2ZJywId2eK1~DlWxawzEJLfdr~DZI5hvHDBOQD0qah0GIhHbKoBks2gKEhtsHyjrVcFYzw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Randolph County Schools board members approved multiple routine items by voice vote at their meeting on Aug. 7, including school resource officer contracts, changes to employee and guest meal prices, a resolution to install school-zone signage, an out-of-state field trip for RCHS cheerleaders and the personnel action sheet.

The board adopted a resolution to permit installation of solar, flashing school-zone signs on State Highway 48 at Randolph County High School. According to materials in the board packet, the signage program would be paid in part by the state Department of Transportation with the district purchasing one unit while the DOT would pay for the matching unit.

The board approved an out-of-state field trip for approximately 10 Randolph County High School varsity cheerleaders to LaGrange, Georgia, to attend a cheer camp led by Jessica Farrah.

The personnel action sheet was approved as presented. Earlier in the meeting the board also approved the meeting agenda and the minutes of the July 17, 2025, board meeting by voice vote.

All motions recorded in the meeting transcript were approved by voice vote; no roll-call tallies or individual named votes were recorded in the transcript.
