The Ballston Spa Central School District Board of Education approved a series of resolutions at its July 2 meeting, adopting policy changes and awarding contracts and bids across operations and services.

The board approved Resolution 52 (policy statement on free and reduced-price meals), Resolution 53 (Board Policy File 5685, maximum temperature for school buildings and indoor facilities, with measurement to be taken in the middle of the classroom or facility), and Resolution 54 (Board Policy File 7316, student use of personal technology). During discussion on Resolution 54 board members and district staff said the policy aligns with New York State requirements and that building-level procedures, including medical exemptions, will be developed at each school.

Resolutions 55 through 61 were routine professional-services agreements the board approved without discussion. The board approved Resolution 62 awarding a preventive services bid for heater and boiler maintenance and Resolution 63 awarding a bid for playground sunscreen/structures. Resolution 64 approved disposal of obsolete equipment. Resolution 65 approved placements for students with disabilities.

The board then approved a consent agenda covering Resolutions 66 through 82. The chair announced the consent agenda passed following a motion and second; board members voted “Aye.” No roll-call vote or individual tallies were stated on the record.

Each motion was moved and seconded on the record; in most cases the transcript records the motions as “So moved” and “Second” without identifying who moved or seconded. Where board members asked brief clarifying questions (for example, about how temperature is measured for Resolution 53), staff provided procedural details but no amendments were made to the resolutions on the floor.

The meeting concluded after announcements and a brief recognition of Miss Eggleston, a newly appointed special education teacher.
