Summary
The Board of Education convened an executive session to discuss the employment history of particular persons, reconvened for a public meeting, approved multiple consent agenda items including personnel and general resolutions, and approved resolution 26-145 with one abstention by President William Iannuzzi.
At the start of the meeting, Board President William Iannuzzi moved that the board immediately go into executive session "to meet with district counsel and discuss the employment history of particular persons, which may lead to the employment of a particular person." The motion was moved by Williams and seconded by Lewis; the motion carried. The board recessed into executive session and reconvened the public session later in the evening.
After reconvening, the board approved minutes from the regular meeting of Aug. 12, 2025. The board then approved several consent agenda bundles: personnel resolutions (26-124 through 26-128 items as listed in the agenda) and general resolutions (26-129 through 26-144) per staff recommendations. Motions were moved and seconded as recorded; votes were taken with members saying "Aye" and the chair announcing that motions carried.
The board then considered consent resolution 26-145 (an amendment to the Boys and Girls Club lease). The motion to approve 26-145 was moved by Ross and seconded by Clayton Fernandez. Board President William Iannuzzi, who had stated earlier he would abstain from the last resolution because it involved his employment, recorded an abstention; the chair announced the motion carried.
The board scheduled a Committee of the Whole session on Thursday, Sept. 18, with executive session beginning at 6:00 p.m. at Central Admin at City Hall, and then adjourned the meeting.
