The Haddonfield School District Board of Education approved a multi-item consent agenda that included the district’s biannual HIB and violence/vandalism reports, curriculum and special-education program approvals, personnel appointments and leaves, and a set of business and finance actions including RFP awards for construction management and architect-of-record services.
Items approved in the consent agenda (motions and roll-call votes recorded at the meeting) included: acceptance of the HIB and violence/vandalism reports and the fire and security drill report; approval of field trips and textbook adoptions; a collection of personnel actions (new hires, transfers, resignations, leaves, coaching and extracurricular appointments); approvals related to special-education placements and contracts for providers (LearnWell, Walsh Legacy, MJ Kids, others); and business/finance items such as acceptance of donations (3D printer, refurbishing of bike racks, WillyGoat field games), tuition reimbursements and approval to award RFPs for a construction manager and an architect of record.
During discussion board members asked clarifying questions about specific items (for example, how 1:1 aides and nurses are used on overnight senior trips and who bears the cost) and confirmed details about ticketing fees for athletic events in the operational reports section. Several board members thanked retiring staff and recognized recent retirements.
The meeting recorded roll-call votes for the consent motions; the board president called the roll and motions were recorded as approved in the meeting minutes. Where individual abstentions were noted during the minutes vote on meeting minutes (for members not present at prior meeting), those were recorded separately.
