Votes at a glance: Page County board approves procurement plan, claims, POs, personnel realignment and letter to supervisors
Summary
At its March meeting the Page County School Board approved the procurement plan for school food authorities, certified claims and payments, approved three purchase orders over $10,000, authorized a letter requesting removal of categorical funding, and approved a personnel realignment to add a director of support services.
The Page County School Board recorded several formal actions at its meeting:
- Procurement plan for school food authorities: The board approved the procurement plan presented for the school nutrition program. During the discussion the food-service director corrected a previously misstated summer feeding figure and reported the correct count: 71,395 meals served last summer, averaging about 463 children per week. The motion to approve the procurement plan passed.
- Claims and payments: The board certified claims for payment including Fund 1 operating of $240,085.89 and Food Service Fund 15 of $69,153.79, for a total of $309,239.68; members voted to approve the claims and check registers.
- Purchase orders over $10,000: The board approved three POs over $10,000: additional iPads and licensing (for youngest learners/Chromebook/iPad allocations), early-career teacher supports and three instructional coaches through James Madison University using Title II funds, and Spire teacher sets using all-in funding. Board members asked which grades received the iPads; staff said the devices target younger learners (second grade referenced). The motion passed.
- Letter requesting removal of categorical funding: The board authorized a letter to the Board of Supervisors requesting removal of categorical funding to give the division more flexibility; the board approved the letter and directed staff to send it ahead of the budget presentation next week.
- Personnel action A.06: The board approved a personnel realignment to add a director of support services position realigning human resources and business operations. Staff said the position would be funded from breakage (vacancies/retirements) and would take effect for FY26, not immediately. The motion passed.
Votes were recorded in favor during roll call for each item; no opposing votes were announced on these motions during the meeting.
Ending: Board members said these approvals support upcoming budget work and operational needs; staff will present budget details and any follow-up items at future meetings.
