The moderator told the board, "You do have the, ratified master contract," and described the ratification as the last step in a sequence of meetings that began with a public hearing and included a tentative agreement public hearing. The moderator asked whether any members of the public wished to speak; the transcript records someone named Aaron declining to comment.
The moderator asked whether any board members had questions or concerns and thanked teachers for their cooperation through the negotiation process, saying, "I think it's a good contract that we have in place that's both good for the school corporation and for teachers as well."
