Summary
At the meeting the board approved the consent agenda block including appointments, adopted revised Board of Education policy and approved routine resolutions for year‑end reserve adjustments, meeting calendar and cooperative agreements; the board also accepted bid results for a 2024–25 capital outlay project.
The Board of Education approved the consensus agenda and a series of routine motions and resolutions during the meeting. Trustees approved the appointments block for instructional, non‑instructional and extra‑curricular positions and welcomed newly appointed staff in the audience.
Trustees carried the second reading and adoption of Board of Education Policy 12‑10 (board members nomination and election) and approved rescinding and deleting Board of Education Policy 12‑11 (students serving as ex officio members of the Board of Education) as presented.
Other approved items included a year‑end resolution authorizing adjustments to reserve balances as part of the fiscal year closing process, adopting July 1, 2025 as the reorganizational meeting date for the 2025–26 school year, adoption of the 2025–26 Board of Education meeting calendar, and authorization for the district to participate with RIC1’s Risk Operations Center (ROC) and enter a data privacy agreement.

Finally, trustees accepted bid results for the 2024–25 capital outlay project. All motions were moved and seconded on the record and passed by voice vote with trustees answering “Aye” when prompted. The meeting did not record a roll‑call tally by name in the transcript; the motions were approved as part of the meeting record.
New hires announced included Madeline Payne (middle‑school Spanish teacher), Giovanna (long‑term English as a New Language substitute), Sarah Dower (high school math teacher; introduced herself online), and other instructional and clerical appointments. The board welcomed the new staff members during the meeting.
