Summary
Miss Sainz presented multiple education agreements on July 1 in a first reading, including a CLEAR residency-verification subscription, transportation contracts, renewals for vision and hearing services, distance-education course agreements and a city MOU for two SROs.
Miss Sainz presented several items under the education report at the July 1 North Ridgeville City Board of Education meeting and said they were being presented as a first reading.
Items listed in the transcript for first reading included: a multiyear agreement with Thomson Reuters for CLEAR investigation software to assist with residency verification; student-transportation contracts with Professional Van Service Company and America's Best Transportation; renewal of service contracts with the Educational Service Center of Northeast Ohio for vision and hearing support; a renewal agreement with East Central Ohio Educational Service Center for distance-education courses in American Sign Language and Mandarin; and a memorandum of understanding with the City of North Ridgeville to support the school-resource-officer program with two officers.
Miss Sainz said these items are in first reading and that a second reading and consideration for approval would occur at the board's July 15 regular meeting. The transcript does not record debate or votes on these items at the July 1 meeting.
Why it matters: The agreements cover operational supports used by the district ' student residency verification, contracted transportation, vision/hearing services, distance-learning courses and the presence of two school-resource officers (SROs) under an MOU with the city. Approval on July 15 would convert these proposals into contracts and operational arrangements.
