Alva Public Schools board approves consent agenda, 2025‑26 calendar, interlocal agreement and accepts $10,000 donation
Summary
At its regular meeting the Alva Public Schools Board of Education approved the consent agenda (including minutes, purchase orders and personnel items), adopted the 2025‑26 school calendar, approved a 2025 interlocal agreement and accepted a $10,000 anonymous donation for the high school speech and debate program.
The Alva Public Schools Board of Education approved multiple routine and business items during its regular meeting, including a consent agenda that encompassed minutes, purchase orders, activity‑fund items and personnel listings; the board also voted to adopt the 2025‑26 school calendar, approve a 2025 interlocal agreement and accept a $10,000 anonymous donation earmarked for Allen High School’s speech and debate account.
The board approved the consent agenda by roll call. The consent agenda included approval of the minutes of the Jan. 7 regular meeting; the finance report; purchase orders and building‑fund items; the extra duty assignment schedule; activity fund reports, fundraisers and inter‑account transfers; the child nutrition report; board policies and procedures; and declarations of surplus items. The motion to accept the consent items passed with affirmative votes recorded during roll call.
On the 2025‑26 calendar, the board approved “Option 2,” which the superintendent and principals brought forward after staff input and a district vote that showed strong support for that version. The adopted calendar adds a staff orientation day before teacher reporting, schedules professional development days (including a half‑day tied to a local basketball tournament), maintains fall and spring conference timing and preserves standard holiday breaks. The board recorded a unanimous affirmative vote for calendar approval.
The board also voted to approve a 2025 interlocal agreement described in the meeting as the “2025 InterContinental Agreement in the Brooklyn Engineering District Number 8.” The motion and roll call were recorded in the minutes and the agreement was approved by the board.
Separately, the board accepted a $10,000 anonymous donation to the Allen High School speech and debate account. The donation was presented to the board and approved by vote.
Members then moved to a motion to enter a second session (executive/closed session) later in the agenda; the motion to proceed was made and recorded.
