The Tri-City United School Board approved the agenda and a consent agenda that included personnel actions and bills totaling $1,119,631.37; accepted multiple grants and donations; approved a letter of agreement with the teachers association on coach/advisor placement; and set two special meetings. All recorded motions passed unanimously (6-0).
Tri-City United School Board members voted unanimously on a series of routine and substantive items during the meeting, approving personnel actions, a multi-item consent agenda, several grants and resolutions and scheduling special meetings.
Key outcomes: the board approved the meeting agenda and a consent agenda that included minutes from the Sept. 22, 2025 meeting, multiple personnel actions (new hires and leaves), and bills totaling $1,119,631.37 covering prepaid and paid claims. The vote on the consent agenda was recorded as 6-0.
The board also approved a letter of agreement with the TCU Education Association (TCU EA) that adjusts placement of coaches and advisors on the pay schedule for the 2025-26 school year; board materials said the change recognizes outside experience when placing coaches on the schedule. The motion passed 6-0.
Other board actions that passed unanimously (6-0): - Approved a special meeting on Nov. 10, 2025, to canvass election results from the Nov. 4 election. - Approved a special meeting on Dec. 8, 2025, at 6 p.m. for Tri-City United’s Truth and Taxation hearing. - Adopted a resolution supporting the district’s application to the Minnesota State High School League Foundation for a Form A grant to offset student activity fees. - Accepted a $1,000 Montgomery Community Foundation grant for the TCU Montgomery band program. - Accepted a $5,000 Prairie Lakes Regional Arts Council grant for TCU Community Education. - Accepted donations and gifts listed in the board packet, including welding material for the high school class, produce donations and $250 from the Montgomery Knights of Columbus for a high-school PBIS program.
Votes were recorded in roll call or by voice as noted in the meeting minutes; recorded roll-call approvals were 6-0 where specified.
Why it matters: The consent agenda moves personnel and financial business forward, the letter of agreement affects coach/advisor pay placement and the grants provide targeted support to student activities. Scheduling canvass and Truth-and-Taxation meetings establishes legally required timelines for election certification and property-tax public notice and hearing.
The board adjourned after approving the items; the final recorded votes in the meeting transcript show unanimous support for items presented.
