The Brighton Central School District Board of Education voted on Aug. 20 to approve the district's 2025–26 strategic plan and related professional development plan, granted tenure to two administrators and approved an agreement to participate in the Rochester-area school health plan.

The board approved tenure for Dr. Danielle Edmonds, TCMS principal, and for Heidi Hendricks. The board praised Edmonds and Hendricks for their leadership and planned formal celebrations in June. "You've made such a remarkable impact already," one board member said during the recognition.

The board adopted the districtwide 2025–26 strategic plan after a collaborative development process the administration described as driven by community input, inclusive stakeholder meetings and clearly articulated success indicators, strategies and staff-support plans. "All of our work should fall into those four buckets: mental health and wellness, student support and academic excellence, the family-student experience, and operations," the district presenter said.

Board members also unanimously approved the district professional development plan aligned to the strategic plan and voted to join the Rochester-area school health plan to achieve health-care efficiency for staff. The board approved an updated list of depositories and accepted the consent agenda, which included personnel items, special-education committee recommendations, field trips, fundraising activities and gifts. Gifts reported on Aug. 20 included a Yamaha alto saxophone, theater equipment donations, and monetary gifts from the Brighton Education Fund totaling several thousand dollars earmarked for arts and science curriculum materials.

Several routine procedural motions — to approve the agenda, approve minutes of prior meetings and to adjourn — were made and carried by voice vote. No public commenters addressed the board during the public participation portion of the meeting.
