Votes at a glance
- Approval of Jan. 13 organizational and regular meeting minutes: Motion carried after roll call; one abstention was recorded for an individual listed as Miss Regolodai on the transcript.
- Approval of February 1 work‑session minutes: Motion carried by roll call (unanimous among members recorded present).
- Approval of recommended items (calendar for 2024–25, MVMS handbook attendance changes, Ohio High School Athletic Association membership and multiple board policy updates): Motion moved and seconded; roll call recorded unanimous approval among members present.
- Fiscal services items: The board approved routine reconciliation and forecast reports and accepted county auditor tax rates for next school year as presented; roll call recorded unanimous approval among members present.
- Business services: The board approved three business‑services items (tartan/mercury mitigation and hazardous‑material remediation, new wood gym floor and related equipment, and bleacher work). Roll call responses recorded in the transcript were affirmative for the members listed.
- Personnel approvals: The board approved certificated personnel (contracts, supplemental spring assignments and substitutes) and classified personnel items (appointments, two‑year contracts, retirements); motions carried by roll call.
For most motions the transcript records the motion and a subsequent roll‑call in which board members recorded yes votes. Where the transcript captured a named roll call, the recorded “yes” votes included board members identified in the meeting as Miss Rolodai, Mr. Workman, Mr. Ward, Dr. Bennett and Mrs. Gatzman; the transcript also shows earlier abstentions on specific minute approvals.
No votes recorded during the public session were defeated or tabled; the board adjourned into executive session later in the meeting for negotiations and indicated no action would follow from that closed session.
