Board approves routine contracts, financial consent and personnel items; interdistrict services contracted
Summary
At its Nov. 6 meeting, the Orange City SD Board approved routine minutes, an interdistrict services contract, the treasurer's financial consent resolution and several personnel and disposal items by roll call.
Orange City SD Board of Education members approved a slate of routine items during their Nov. 6 regular meeting, including an interdistrict services staffing contract, the treasurer's monthly financial consent resolution, disposals and multiple personnel items.
The board voted to approve the minutes of the Oct. 23 regular meeting early in the session by roll call. Later in the meeting the board approved an interdistrict services agreement with the Educational Service Center of Cuyahoga County (ESC of Cuyahoga County) to provide one residency officer, one intervention specialist, one administrator consultant and one paraprofessional for the 2023-24 school year; the motion passed on a roll-call vote. The board learned this arrangement is a pass-through contract to provide staff to serve an out-of-district student rather than hiring new in-house employees.
The treasurer presented the monthly financials and the district's five-year forecast; the board approved the financial consent resolution by roll call vote. The consent motion covered routine monthly expenditures, investments and grant/donation acceptances, including donations to robotics and minority male leadership programs noted during the treasurer's update.
The board also approved property disposals and routine personnel items for district and OCE&R staff, each by roll call. No contested motions or recorded no votes were announced on these items during the meeting.
