Votes at a glance: Board approves budget amendment, budget resolution, AIG plan, contracts, vendors and personnel actions
Summary
The board approved a series of motions by show of hands on June 30, including budget and personnel items and routine contracts.
The Lenoir County Board of Education on June 30 approved a slate of motions by show of hands, including a fiscal-year budget amendment, a budget resolution for the coming year, the district's AIG plan for 20252028, contracts and vendor awards, surplus of electronic equipment from the Early College High School, and personnel recommendations presented after a closed session.
Board members approved budget amendment No. 5 for fiscal year 20242025 and a budget resolution based on planning allotments and estimated revenues for 20252026. Board members also approved the district's Academically or Intellectually Gifted (AIG) plan for 20252028 and the 20252026 driver's education contract with Jordan Driving School, which the presenter said contains no fee increase from the prior year.
The board approved vendor awards for the 20252026 school year. Presenters noted one change from a prior packet: Riverside Paper won the paper bid after an audit of the consortium process, replacing an earlier assumption that Cisco had been the winning vendor. The board approved the recommended vendors as presented.
The board declared a set of MacBook laptops from Lenoir County Early College High School surplus; any proceeds from sale will return to the early college program. The board approved surplus disposition and noted that several of the laptops trace to at least two prior lease cycles.
In motions leading into a closed session, the board moved to enter closed session citing a North Carolina statute cited in the motion; the closed session was used to discuss confidential personnel matters and to consult with counsel. After closed session, the board approved the personnel report and several recommended hires by show of hands, including the appointment of a transportation director (named in meeting minutes as Miss Brenner/Brunner) and the appointment of Kayla Harris as assistant principal at E.B. Frank Middle School.
Meeting minutes record that many votes were taken by show of hands; individual roll-call tallies were not recorded in the transcript provided.
