The board handled several routine procedural items by voice vote before moving to substantive actions. The vice chair moved to accept the agenda and Director Heath moved to approve the September minutes and the consent calendar; those motions were approved by the board.
Flu vaccine clinics: The board approved a motion to partner with MaineHealth to hold voluntary flu vaccine clinics for the 2025–26 school year. The superintendent said details were still being finalized; clinics will require parental permission and will include family clinic times for elementary students and appointments for middle and high school students so educational time is minimally disrupted. The motion to approve the MaineHealth clinics carried (mover: vice chair; second: Director Kreutz). No roll‑call tally was specified in the record.
Bus lease‑purchase authorization: On second reading the board authorized a lease‑purchase of three buses in the principal amount of $335,522.85 through a state program. Director Sargent presented the financing details and said the district was approved for three buses; at the end of the lease the district may purchase the buses for $1. The motion passed with eight members voting in the affirmative.
Other actions: The board accepted committee reports for policy review and announced upcoming committee meetings. The meeting was adjourned by voice vote; the clerk recorded eight affirmative votes on adjournment.
