The Palmyra Area School District board recorded several formal motions and votes at its September meeting, approving routine and contractual items and voting to elect officers to the Pennsylvania School Boards Association (PSBA) slate presented at the meeting.
Minutes: A motion to approve the minutes of the regular board meeting was moved by a board member identified as Greg; a second was recorded and the board voice‑voted “aye.” The transcript records the motion as carried with no individual tally recorded.
PSBA officers: The board voted to elect the PSBA officers as listed on the agenda. The motion was put forward by Mr. Dunn and seconded by Mrs. Brady. The transcript records voice votes of “aye” and at least one named opposition: “Opposed. To oppose. Mr. Dutt?” (as recorded). The motion carried.
KTI School Services LLC agreement: Mr. Guy moved approval of an agreement with KTI School Services LLC for a functional behavioral assessment at a base rate of $1,000 for up to 10 hours of service; hours beyond 10 would be billed at $125 per hour (transcript phrasing: “billed at 1.5 per hour” appears in the record and was clarified in discussion as $125). The motion was seconded by Mrs. Gillick and passed by voice vote; the transcript contains no named roll call tally.
Staffing and administration consent agenda: A motion by Mr. Diamond to approve staffing and administration committee items (including resignations, three support‑staff hires, additional substitutes, winter coaching hires, and softball coaching staff recommendations, along with routine policy readings and a music trip to Disney in 2026) was seconded and approved by voice vote. The motion included routine personnel approvals and committee recommendations recorded in the staffing and administration report.
