The Derby Board of Education approved its consent agenda 5-0, which included multiple routine items and an amendment to the Sedgwick County Sheriff's Office agreement for school resource officers (SROs) at Cooper and Oakmont for the 2025-26 school year.
Board materials listed consent items as: a donation for a fitness program at Derby High School; the Sedgwick County SRO agreement amendment for the 2025-26 school year; a VOCO Vision contract for special services; Kansas unclaimed properties; and certified and classified personnel reports. A board member moved to approve the consent agenda and another board member seconded; the board voted "All in favor? Pass 5 0."
The board later discussed the donation during reports: a trustee noted an anonymous donor will provide a fitness program at Derby High School and said the donation is expected to be implemented at the high school and considered for middle schools as well.
Why this matters: the SRO agreement defines law-enforcement presence in schools and donations can affect student programs; the consent vote authorizes staff to implement these routine items.
No additional conditions, amendments, or dissent were recorded on the consent items during the meeting.
