Votes at a glance: Silver Falls School District board actions, April 15, 2025
Summary
At its April 15 meeting the Silver Falls board approved three formal actions in open session: acceptance of the superintendent's decision on a personnel matter (after executive session), amendment of July designations to name ClearTrail CPAs as auditor, and approval of an out‑of‑state travel request for the football team to Idaho.
The Silver Falls School District Board of Directors took the following recorded actions in open session on April 15, 2025.
1) Personnel complaint: After an executive session held under ORS 192.660(2)(b), the board moved to accept the superintendent's decision in the personnel complaint and to not call a public hearing. The motion was moved and seconded; a roll call vote was taken because one board member recused. The motion carried (roll‑call tally recorded in minutes).
2) Auditor designation: The board amended its July designation documents to name ClearTrail CPAs as the district's auditor after staff completed an RFQ under the district's intermediate procurement process. The motion to amend the designation passed unanimously. Staff said ClearTrail was formed by a large group from the prior firm and that a primary audit partner remains associated for continuity.
3) Football out‑of‑state travel: The board approved a request for the Silverton High School football program to travel to Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, as a team trip funded by program fundraising. Board members confirmed the trip is to be paid with booster or program funds and not the general fund; the motion passed.
Motions, movers and outcomes (as recorded in meeting minutes): - Accept superintendent decision on personnel complaint; mover: unnamed board member; second: unnamed; outcome: approved (roll call; one recusal). - Amend July designation to reflect ClearTrail CPAs as auditor; mover: unnamed; second: unnamed; outcome: approved (unanimous). - Approve out‑of‑state football travel to Idaho; mover: unnamed; second: unnamed; outcome: approved (unanimous).
The board did not provide additional public detail on the personnel matter beyond noting the legal basis for the executive session and the board's acceptance of the administration's recommendation.
