Bus purchase — Item 13.1: The board approved the purchase of a used Bluebird diesel bus (to replace a special‑education fleet bus with a failed motor).

Human resources resolutions — speech and language pathology contract and temporary employee releases: The board approved a contract extension/continuation for a speech and language pathologist (resolution referenced as 13‑24‑25, Education Code 44831 in the motion) for the remainder of the school year; trustees also approved Resolution 14‑24‑25 to release listed temporary contracted employees effective June 30, 2025.
Votes and roll call: Where roll call votes were recorded, trustees voting in the affirmative included Mr. Arnold, Mrs. Ellis White, Mrs. Coonley, Mrs. McGrew Kane (aye), Mrs. Pierce and Mrs. Taylor. The meeting record shows unanimous recorded support on the motions called during the session.
Why it matters: Personnel releases and the bus purchase are formal actions that affect staffing and transportation operations for the district; the superintendent search date sets timelines for hiring the next superintendent; consent agenda items reflect routine administrative approvals.
