Board approves consent agenda, ratifies school leaders' contract and unanimously moves into executive session
Summary
The board approved the consent agenda (including donations and personnel items), ratified a two-year contract with the Ithaca Principals and Directors Association and voted unanimously to enter executive session on personnel, litigation and negotiations.
The Ithaca City School District Board of Education approved multiple routine items on its consent agenda and took several formal actions during the meeting.
A motion to approve the consent agenda — which included considerations of accounts, personnel reports, student matters, minutes and listed donations from the Ithaca Public Education Initiative supporting the Kids Discovery Trail — was moved by Adam and seconded by Jill and passed unanimously.
Superintendent Dr. Brown thanked the board for approving the ratification of a two-year contract with the Ithaca Principals and Directors Association (IPDA). Dr. Brown described the contract as ratified and thanked IPDA leadership.
Earlier in the meeting the board unanimously voted to enter an executive session “for the purpose of discussions regarding proposed pending or current litigation, collective negotiations pursuant to article 14 of the civil service law, and matters leading to the appointment, employment, promotion, demotion, discipline, suspension, dismissal, or removal of a particular person or corporation.” The motion to enter executive session was moved by Adam and seconded by Jill; the board recessed into executive session and planned to return close to 7 p.m.
All formal actions recorded in the meeting were approved unanimously by voice vote; exact roll-call counts were not provided in the transcript.
