Board votes: field-trip policy revision, playbill ad, and IT asset disposal approved; out-of-state trip paperwork tabled
Summary
The East Haven School District Board approved a field-trip policy revision, a $100 advertisement for an East Haven High School playbill and disposal of technology equipment; an out-of-state field trip to Johnson & Wales was tabled because paperwork was inconsistent.
The East Haven School District Board of Education took several routine votes during the meeting.

A motion to approve the revision passed on roll call with the following votes: Miss DePalma — Yes; Mister Hennessy — Yes; Miss Johnson — Yes; Miss Putney — Yes; Miss Santiago — Yes; Doctor DeLucia — Yes.
