Olmsted Falls City Board approves consent agenda including curriculum resources and local donations
Summary
Board members approved the meeting’s consent agenda by roll call. The consent items called out in discussion included curriculum resource recommendations for preschool and K–5 ELA, two local donations and staff contracts; board members voted unanimously to approve the consent agenda.
The Olmsted Falls City School Board approved its consent agenda in a roll-call vote at the meeting.
After the consent items were moved and seconded (mover/second not specified in the transcript), the board president called the roll. The transcript records the following responses: “Mister Funk? Yes. Missus Newman? Yes. Mister Perez? Yes. Missus Walker? Yes. and miss Recker? Yes.” The chair declared “Motion carries.”
District staff had earlier highlighted two consent items (identified in the transcript as items E and F) that memorialize year-long work: a preschool benchmark/comprehensive curriculum and a K–5 ELA curriculum. District staff said the state helped absorb part of the cost for those resources and cited approximately $550,000 in state assistance toward the purchase of recommended resources.
The consent agenda also included two small local donations noted at the meeting: $550 from the middle school PTA for DC trip scholarships and a donated wagon for the ECC modern test room. Staff additionally indicated routine contract approvals and continuing contract/tenure recommendations would be processed under the consent agenda.
Board members discussed scheduling and work sessions after the vote; the board agreed to dispense with a May 1 work session because of conflicts with scholarship night and other calendar items.
