Board approves charter renewal, proclaims April as Month of the Military Child; agenda, consent items also pass
Summary
At its March 13, 2025, meeting the District 49 Board of Education approved a five-year charter renewal for Mountain View Academy and passed a proclamation recognizing April as the Month of the Military Child. The agenda and the consent agenda were also approved.
The District 49 Board of Education on March 13 approved a five-year renewal for Mountain View Academy and proclaimed April as the Month of the Military Child, and it voted to approve the meeting agenda and the consent agenda.
The board approved the meeting agenda early in the session and later approved the consent agenda without recorded dissent. Both measures were made by motion and second and recorded in roll call votes.
The board unanimously approved a proclamation declaring April as the Month of the Military Child after a presentation from Kelly Chapelle, the district’s military student family liaison, who asked the board to “uphold the tradition of declaring April as Month of the Military Child in District 49.” Student board members and several directors offered brief remarks of support.
Separately, the board voted to renew Mountain View Academy’s charter for five years and directed district legal counsel to negotiate and finalize the contract with conditions identified by the board at a prior work session. That motion passed in open session and a board member later recorded an additional aye via the meeting record; the item was listed on the agenda as an action item and concluded with formal approval.
