The Marlboro Central School District Board of Education voted unanimously to approve a consent agenda that included a one-year contract amendment with Quality Bus, the district superintendent said.
During his presentation, Mr. Rydell, superintendent of schools, explained the proposed contract amendment "is a cap on what the increase from year to year would be. So it would be the May 31 CPI amount or 2.5%, whichever is higher," and he discussed the district staff member who helped with negotiations, Emerson Segura.
The motion to approve the consent agenda (personnel recommendations, contract amendment for Quality Bus, claims audit letter and the December 2024 report) was moved by Faith and seconded by James Kuha. The board approved the motion on a roll call: Miss Nadine, yes; Mr. Kuha, yes; Miss Benninger, yes; Mr. Mullen, yes; Miss Schreed, yes; and the presiding officer, yes.
What it means: The board action authorizes the superintendent to finalize the one-year extension and the contract language described. Specific financial details beyond the CPI/2.5% language were not provided at the meeting.
Implementation and next steps: The amendment was presented as part of the consent agenda; no separate discussion or amendment to the contract language was recorded in the minutes beyond Mr. Rydell explanation.
Ending: The board had no further recommended actions at the meeting and moved on to consider new business.
