Personnel and human-resources items approved included the appointment of Shaquina Spraggins as assistant principal at Murray Avenue School starting July 1, Nancy Bradley as assistant principal at Pine Road starting July 14, and Bridget McShane as a long-term substitute English teacher at the middle school for the 2025–26 school year.

The board approved athletic extracurricular contracts, independent contractor agreements, and updated district substitute hourly pay rates for 2025–26.
