The Freehold Township School District Board of Education approved a memorandum of agreement (MOA), multiple personnel actions and several finance and facilities items during the public meeting.
At the start of the meeting the board approved the minutes of the June 10, 2025 regular meeting and the June 10, 2025 executive session minutes (the executive session minutes passed with one abstention). Later in the meeting the board took recorded votes on personnel and contractual items.
Memorandum of agreement (Item 2): Board member Dr. Casey moved and a colleague seconded the motion to approve “item number 2, memorandum of agreement as listed.” A roll call vote recorded multiple yes votes and one abstention (Mister Williams). The motion carried.
Personnel and consent agenda (Items 3–30): The board approved a large consent block that included resignations, new employments for the 2025–26 school year, established salaries, contract renewals for central administrators and non‑affiliated staff, leaves of absence, unpaid days, stipends, ESY (Extended School Year) staffing, translators/interpreters, and affirmative HIB investigation findings, among other personnel and policy items. A roll call vote recorded unanimous or majority yes votes and the motion carried.
Finance, facilities and transportation measures: The finance committee moved a package that included the secretary and treasurer’s report for May 2025, bills and claims totaling $4,744,763.17, travel expenses, transfers and end‑of‑year transfers, transfer of current surplus to reserves, approved out‑of‑district contracts and updates, Title II A and IDEA grant items, meal pricing, acceptance of an RFP for Wilson Foundations training, Parcel 23 (537 road project) items, acceptance of construction manager RFPs, and selection/approval of an asset management construction manager. After committee discussion the board voted in favor and the motion carried.
Construction management selection: Committee members said three firms interviewed were highly qualified and that the board approved a construction management firm (committee discussion identified the selected firm as Epic). Members noted the need for on‑site presence for complex, concurrent projects and thanked committee volunteers for vetting candidates.
Insurance and facility update (discussion, not a separate vote): Board members and staff discussed environmental insurance related to Donovan (a district building) and reported ongoing follow‑up with the insurer (Beasley) and the district’s broker; the discussion reviewed past remediation, submitted engineering reports and next steps on renewal and potential placement. No formal insurance decision was recorded at the meeting.
Motions to adjourn and other routine agenda approvals were passed by voice vote.
