Summary
At its regular meeting the Okaloosa County School Board approved the meeting agenda with two added items, multiple personnel and administrative items, and ratified a clerical correction to a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP); every listed motion carried 5–0.
The Okaloosa County School Board approved the meeting agenda (including two late additions), a consent agenda and a series of personnel and administrative actions, and ratified a clerical correction to a construction GMP. All motions recorded on the transcript carried unanimously, 5–0.
The board first approved the agenda after adding two items the superintendent requested: item 7.18, a school-readiness contract requested by Brooke Baron, director of curriculum and instruction; and item 7.19, an appropriation of District 3 capital outlay funds to Edge Elementary School for Clear Touch panels. Motion to approve the amended agenda passed 5–0.
Later the board approved the consent agenda and a series of human-resources and administrative action items, each by a roll-call-style voice vote recorded as "Aye" and summarized as 5–0 in the meeting transcript. Items approved included: - Proposed revision to the FY 2024–25 salary schedule for professional technical personnel (motion by Mr. Bryant; second by Mr. Heinle). 5–0. - Out-of-field report for the 2024–25 school year (moved by Ms. Vanjiek; second by Mr. Bryant). 5–0. - Employment separations (motion by Mr. Heinle; second by Ms. Vanjack). 5–0. - Personnel recommendations (motion by Mr. Destin; second by Mr. Heinley). 5–0. - Employee transfers (motion by Mr. Heinley; second by Ms. Vancic). 5–0. - Reinstatement reimbursement of sick leave due to line-of-duty illness/injury (motion by Mr. Bryant; second by Mr. Destin). 5–0. - Leave without pay (motion by Mr. Heinle; second by Ms. Evanchak). 5–0.
In the attorney’s report the board was asked to ratify a Scrivener’s error in a prior GMP figure: the public content correctly listed the GMP as $796,308 while the body of the earlier agenda motion contained a typographical error. The board moved, as the district attorney requested, to correct and ratify the GMP at $796,308. Motion by Mr. Heinle, second by Mr. Bryant; vote 5–0.
Each of the motions recorded in the transcript was approved by a unanimous vote reported as “Aye” and entered as 5 to 0 in the minutes. The board did not take any recorded votes that resulted in a negative or split tally during this meeting session.
