Dr. Redmond and the human resources office presented routine business including approval of minutes and claims, donations to school programs, and multiple personnel transactions; the board approved the items by motion and voice vote.

The actions matter in administrative terms because they affect staffing at specific schools and channel small donations to extracurricular and student-support programs.

The board approved the consent items that included: minutes of the Aug. 11, 2025 meeting and claims. Donations approved included an end-zone camera purchase funded in part by a local donor, a $1,188.84 donation from the LA Gridiron Club for middle-school football pants, a $500 donation from CAC Development Company for the THS girls golf team, a $1,000 donation from Share the Good Foundation to the Warwick Education Center (related to a recent fire), and a $2,000 donation from Ascension Saint Vincent to Oakdale Elementary’s weekend backpack program. Dr. Redmond recommended approval and the board adopted the donations as presented.

On personnel the Human Resources office presented employment recommendations and routine personnel reports. The board approved multiple certified and noncertified hires (temporary kindergarten teacher, program assistants, cafeteria positions, custodial and instructional staff); approved leaves for named staff; accepted resignations with effective dates; and recorded retirements including a custodian and a Class C maintenance employee with effective dates. The personnel agenda items were approved by motion and voice vote.

Less-critical details: motions were presented and seconded by board members as recorded in the meeting minutes; no further substantive discussion or debate was reported on the consent personnel and donation items.
