Board approves consent agenda, school accountability documents, IT vendor extension and overnight field trips
Summary
The board approved multiple consent and action items by voice vote, including the consent agenda, the 2023–24 School Accountability Report Card, a nondiscrimination addition to the wellness policy, a month-to-month IT vendor contract and several overnight student trips.
At the meeting the Birmingham Community Charter High District board approved the consent agenda and several action items by voice vote.
Items on the consent agenda that were approved included the district’s December check register and credit-card reports and the minutes of the December regular board meeting. The board also approved the 2023–24 School Accountability Report Card (SARC) and a revision to the local wellness policy that added a required nondiscrimination statement related to participation in the federal meal program.
The board approved a month-to-month information-technology vendor contract renewal (independent contractor Fernando/Angel Delgado listed as IT vendor support) to continue work on network upgrades, multifactor authentication and Power BI dashboards that district staff said have reduced IT costs so far this year. The board also approved overnight field trips, including the band festival in San Diego and a cross-country overnight trip; the items were presented together for approval.
How the board voted: Each approval was taken by voice vote. The meeting transcript records “all those in favor say aye” and the chair recorded the items as carried. The transcript does not include a roll-call tally or named vote-by-name in the minutes.
Why it matters: The IT vendor extension supports ongoing network security and dashboard work; the SARC and wellness-policy revision satisfy accountability and federal program requirements; overnight-trip approvals allow student travel for co-curricular events.
Documentation: The meeting packet included the IT cost profile, vendor rate sheet and a list of current IT projects; staff noted Power BI dashboards and an attendance dashboard created with district Microsoft licenses.
