Dr. Politeri, identified in the transcript as Speaker 6, thanked staff and volunteers and said the district had sent a community email asking residents to join committees. \"Please go ahead and check our website. Look to join these committees. It's really important that we have this strong relationship between the district and the community,\" she said. She asked residents to consider the \"gift of their time\" to the district.

Politeri also described forthcoming policy changes at the secondary level linked to the governor's guidance. \"Soon, it's gonna have to put their cell phones or Internet connected devices in their lockers. This will be a real transition for many of us, for parents I know, and for students, and it's something we're going to have to work through,\" she said. The transcript records that Dr. Rota is collecting information and feedback from parents; Politeri said the district would provide more information and specifics before the start of the school year.

The meeting excerpt also includes a brief welcome to Gerard, the district's new school business official, and staff thanks for support during Politeri's early days in the interim role. The transcript records staff references to Mary Anne and Sal for assistance with office setup and technology, but those mentions were expressions of thanks rather than separate agenda items.

Why it matters: Outreach to recruit committee members affects community engagement and governance oversight; the incoming state-level rules on student devices will affect daily routines at the secondary schools and require district planning and parent communication.

The transcript does not include complete text of any state directive or a local board policy change; it records that Dr. Rota is collecting parent feedback and that the district will follow up with additional letters and specifics.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Manhasset Schools Board of Education Meeting 8-7-25","oneSentenceSummary","Interim Superintendent Dr. Politeri used superintendent time at the Aug. 7 meeting to welcome staff, ask residents to join district committees and warned that a governor-backed \"distraction-free school zones\" policy will require secondary students to store phones or internet-connected devices in lockers; Dr. Rota is collecting parent feedback.","taxTitle","MANHASSET UNION FREE SCHOOL DISTRICT, School Districts, New York","taxId",61152,"location","New York","headline","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":56,"_74":56},6139529,"Board approves consent agenda including amended calendar and CASA agreement, transcript records three votes",29,263255,293064,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5580753-ef2244c742c48214d7e48b50f9146708&start=263&end=293","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5580753-ef2244c742c48214d7e48b50f9146708/thumbnail_263255.jpg","/articles/6139529/New-York/Board-approves-consent-agenda-including-amended-calendar-and-CASA-agreement-transcript-records-three-votes","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6139529-d853ae42b064ec7da53b25b84d0a17bd/orig.mp4?Expires=1771189325&Signature=cB39n~EAlbd5nkupeHUJRj1vdGzuHLUJ3syznWLb8l22zzM6EKwJaMMg0-xiUKoPUoKAHps~n95CAA4M9OtqPHFuJkZde3gAW~FODUreMT-FrstWm8aTMqYSo-fSji5s42kapwPwQQFUZ0Hd~f6hxilVK~vwEbPwJ4Cw-cEKm6fhnPz4z0zZwJqs2MQ8NoEJWAtt04nZvqWcIZKtb0XNfOZIylU9vZQ1pcIsb847UqfKs~R7onMWWO078UaclNeckqu~fE9RlXhl6j8iBbKdZfTvOO7izS0RMBSfnZJu6-6OXbEWRviMXU1l9JXkpKUNyny8P6HdQnfWxg2qTeqe1w__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","At the Aug. 7 Manhasset Board of Education meeting, the board handled a consent-agenda item that included an amended school calendar and an agreement with CASA. The chair asked whether members had questions, then asked for approval; the transcript records a count of \"It's 3\" when approval was sought.

The item was presented during the consent-agenda review. The transcript shows the chair asking, \"In terms of the consent agenda, did you have a chance to review or have any quest? ... do you have any questions regarding, the amended calendar as well as the agreement with CASA? You approve? It's 3.\" The excerpt does not include further details of the CASA agreement or the amended calendar, and it does not show individual roll-call votes by name in the excerpt provided.

Why it matters: Consent-agenda items bundle routine approvals that move the district forward on scheduling and external agreements; the CASA agreement likely pertains to services for children involved in the court system, but the transcript does not state the scope or value of the agreement.

The transcript did not include detailed discussion of the amended calendar or the CASA agreement in the excerpt provided, nor did it include an itemized vote-by-name. The board then proceeded to other business.","During the Aug. 7 meeting the board advanced its consent agenda, which included an amended district calendar and an agreement with CASA; the transcript records 'It's 3' when members were asked to approve.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":56,"_74":56},6139533,"Manhasset board hears that Rebecca Gagne will fill Muncie Park reading specialist role as district expands Orton Gillingham, Wilson training",16,111990,128765,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5580753-ef2244c742c48214d7e48b50f9146708&start=111&end=128","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5580753-ef2244c742c48214d7e48b50f9146708/thumbnail_111990.jpg","/articles/6139533/New-York/Manhasset-board-hears-that-Rebecca-Gagne-will-fill-Muncie-Park-reading-specialist-role-as-district-expands-Orton-Gillingham-Wilson-training","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6139533-6666925af50e3b94c98d392552b7b67d/orig.mp4?Expires=1771189325&Signature=EsORpoLtjqCGwMXR4gCa3BCn8d--mj2mm~GmRn0fpg8H5DNvuXa5CqWsxTKVCRsv52FSD3nX~AZn6Qhepg47LHvokRQb0u7sHNykRBwoPvXOkCy5SVFIYmHT-FYMsGdvVsDLD8RasmOTGlWm~1AUwLU4F5j~pW6DUN6mxsSJofRiDgvNFXsLOUNe6j8mT0ge9gW8ouUFAq1hGhT8cylok-yQSReLjDaGxR-nisLmgbPMy6TpmPA0z0kKh~TSXsVc68YPd5hsqphh0MrI7-Ru7CvNVu~Vb50AZS0pt3X4w~NgCvM6dis2XQ0WZJtz2AxWQwiVmRnAeW14XIo5xq7B-Q__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","At the Aug. 7 Manhasset Board of Education meeting, board members reviewed the personnel schedule and heard that Rebecca Gagne will fill the reading specialist position at Muncie Park, replacing Megan Lisi, who resigned in June. Staff members said the district is also expanding training in Orton Gillingham and Wilson methods for reading specialists.

The personnel item was presented during the board’s review of the personnel schedule. A staff member identified in the transcript as Speaker 4 said, \"Rebecca is replacing Megan Lisi. Megan re resigned from our position in June and as a reading teacher. So that's where, Rebecca's covering her position. So it's at Muncie.\" The transcript indicates the board discussed how the hire fits into the district's tenure-area reporting: the position is listed under the literacy tenure area.

Board members asked whether the new hire would be a building-based reading teacher or a districtwide literacy specialist. \"Is she that'll be a literacy specialist across or or dedicated to Muncie Park, new to the district,\" asked a board member (Speaker 3). The staff reply stated the appointment is to replace the Muncie Park position and confirmed the tenure area as literacy.

District staff and a board member also discussed teacher training. A speaker identified as Speaker 5 said, \"We're also very happy that we're expanding our training this year. That's one of our initiatives within the reading department for more Orton Gillingham and Wilson, certified teachers.\" Another board member noted the importance of maintaining a roster of teachers with Orton Gillingham and Wilson training for reading instruction.

The transcript does not record a separate roll-call vote on the personnel schedule item or the individual appointment in the excerpt provided. No additional contractual or salary details were stated in the transcript.

Why it matters: placement of a reading specialist and expansion of certified training affects literacy services delivered to students at Muncie Park and the district's capacity to provide intensive reading interventions.

The board moved on after the personnel discussion; the transcript does not show formal follow-up tasks or a separate motion tied to this specific hire in the excerpt provided.","At its Aug. 7 meeting the Manhasset Board of Education reviewed the personnel schedule and heard that Rebecca Gagne will take the reading specialist position at Muncie Park, replacing Megan Lisi; district staff said it is expanding Orton Gillingham and Wilson training for reading teachers.","actionData","errors"]
