- Consent agenda: Approval of superintendent‑recommended job description (Library Media Specialist, grades 7–12). Motion moved by Crystal and seconded by Alex. Vote: unanimous in favor; outcome approved.
- Policy JIE (Pregnant Students): Second reading and approval as presented (motion moved by Brie, seconded by Crystal). Roll‑call vote: 3 in favor, 5 opposed, 1 abstention; outcome — failed. Following the failed second reading the board voted to send policy JIE back to the policy subcommittee for reconsideration of the Title IX coordinator language and for further legal review; that referral motion passed (recorded vote: 6 in favor, 3 opposed).
- Wastewater Improvements Project funding: Consideration and authorization to reserve up to $400,000 of district reserve funds to cover additional project funds and a DEP‑required 10% contingency. Motion seconded by Kyle; vote recorded as unanimous in favor; outcome — approved.
Other formal actions: The board recessed into a non‑executive workshop to revisit the board self‑evaluation at the end of the meeting (motion carried).
Why it matters: these votes advance capital projects, clarify that the pregnant‑students policy requires more drafting and legal review, and update personnel records via the consent agenda.
