Dr. Redmond, a board member, presented routine business and recommended approval of the meeting minutes, claims and docket and additional items in the personnel and donations packets. "I recommend the board approve the routine items as presented," Dr. Redmond said.
Why it matters: routine approvals put contracts, personnel appointments and donor contributions into official record and enable schools and programs to operate at the start of the school year.
Donations approved (as presented): an end‑zone camera purchase funded by a donor; $1,188.84 from the LA Gridiron Club for middle‑school football pants; $500 from CAC Development Company to the high‑school girls golf team for uniforms/equipment/food; $1,000 from the Share the Good Foundation to the Warwick Education Center for students and staff (noted as a result of the Weck fire); and $2,000 from Ascension Saint Vincent to Oakdale Elementary to support the weekend backpack program.
Personnel actions approved (as presented) included a list of certified and non‑certified hires (temporary kindergarten teacher, program assistants, cafeteria positions, clerical and custodial appointments), leaves, transfers, resignations (with effective dates where provided), and retirements (including retirements effective Dec. 19, 2025 and Aug. 21, 2025 for named staff). Human Resources outlined the positions and effective dates in the packet.
Action taken: motions to approve routine items, donations and personnel recommendations were moved, seconded, and adopted by voice vote.
Less critical details: several board members thanked staff for the preparation and noted the items were consistent with packets distributed in advance.
Next steps: approved hires and donations will be recorded and implemented by the district's business and human resources offices.
