At its Dec. 16 meeting Cary CCSD 26’s Board of Education approved routine consent items and a personnel-development contract, then moved into closed session.
The consent agenda, which the board approved by roll call, included open- and closed-meeting minutes, the treasurer's report, a resignation/dismissal/retirement report, destruction of closed-meeting audio recordings, and the district’s recommendation for Skyward financial software. The total bills and payroll presented for payment were $1,817,519.82. The roll call vote recorded yes from Jason Jancic, Dee Darling, Catherine Potter, Anne Santucci, Mindy Hartman, Julie Jetty and Stacy Salt.
The board also approved a two-year partnership with BloomBoard proposed to fund paraprofessionals pursuing bachelor's or master's degrees plus endorsements, paid through the teacher-vacancy grant. District presenter Mister DeRue said the program would allow four paraprofessionals to earn degrees and endorsements; he stated the per-person cost and the total as presented to the board. The motion passed by roll-call vote with the same seven “yes” votes.
Finally, the board took a motion and vote to adjourn into closed session to discuss probable or pending litigation under the Illinois Open Meetings Act, 5 ILCS 120/2(c)(11). The motion carried by roll call vote.
