The motion is approved."
2) Approval of consent agenda (includes personnel actions, acceptance of grants, calendar updates, deputy agent appointment, transfer across appropriations, early learning program transition, advisory committee appointments, and Bellwood year-round calendar update) - Motion: Approve the consent agenda as presented. - Outcome: Approved by roll call. - Roll-call transcript (as read by clerk): "Zac Hepron. Aye. Dominique Chatters. Aye. Steven Pronto. Aye. Lisa Hudgens. Aye. Anne Coker. Aye. The motion carries."

3) Adoption of resolution recognizing February 2025 as Career and Technical Education Month - Motion: Adopt the resolution as presented. - Outcome: Approved by roll call; the clerk recorded "Aye" from Dot Heffron (remote) and board members present; chair announced the resolution had been adopted. - Vote record (as read): Dot Heffron (Aye), Dominique Chatters (Aye), Steven Pronto (Aye), Lisa Hudgens (Aye), Ann Coker (Aye). - Provenance excerpt: resolution reading and subsequent roll call.
4) Authorization to contract for roof replacement at Falling Creek Elementary (Memo No. 201-25) - Motion: Authorize procurement director to enter into a construction agreement with Roof Systems of Virginia for full roof replacement at Falling Creek Elementary and approve change orders up to the project budget. - Outcome: Approved by roll call. - Roll-call transcript (as read): "Doctor Heffron. Aye. Dominique Chatters. Aye. C. Benparato. Aye. Lisa Hudgens. Aye. Ann Kocher. Aye. The memo is approved." (names and spellings transcribed from the official meeting audio.)
Notes on the roll-call transcriptions: the clerk read names and recorded "Aye" for members present; the transcript contains several spellings/transcription artifacts for member names (recorded as read in the meeting record). Where a mover or seconder was not verbally identified by name in the meeting audio, the vote record lists persons as "not specified." The official minutes and board clerk's record are the primary source of record for final, authoritative roll-call details.
Why it matters: These votes authorized routine operational items (personnel, grants, maintenance) and established formal recognitions; the roof contract represents a capital maintenance expenditure of about $1.8 million from the division's major maintenance budget as read into the record.
