Summary
The Sylvania Schools Board honored dozens of student-athletes and teams for championship seasons, approved routine consent items including personnel and field trips, and accepted a $2,000 donation from William Hamilton. The board also reappointed Kevin to the Sylvania Area Joint Recreation District.
At its regular meeting, the Sylvania Schools Board of Education recognized student-athletes and teams from Southview and Northview for recent championships and individual qualifications and approved a broad consent agenda covering minutes, the treasurer’s report, personnel actions and extracurricular contracts.
The board read names and presented certificates to athletes on the Southview boys soccer team, Southview girls golf champions, and multiple cross country and individual award winners. Coaches named in the meeting included Andy Cofell, Jack Sefersky, Josh Pawlicki and Dave Flanders. The superintendent recommended approval of the recognition of achievement, and trustees moved and seconded the item before recording affirmative votes.
On business matters, board members approved consent items including minutes from Oct. 27 and Nov. 3, the treasurer’s report for month ending Oct. 31, availability of funds, multiple personnel items (substitutes, resignations, supplemental positions) and 2025–26 activity contracts. The board also approved overnight field trips and the junior high school book list as presented.
The board accepted a $2,000 donation from William Hamilton toward what was listed in the agenda as “North Fuse Black Hole.” The superintendent moved acceptance of the gift; the board voted to approve the gift and thanked Mr. Hamilton for his generosity.
The board approved a three-year reappointment of Kevin to the Sylvania Area Joint Recreation District. A board member described it as Kevin’s second term on the recreation district board and moved the appointment, which the board approved by roll call.
Next steps: Approved consent items and personnel changes will be implemented per district procedures; no further hearings were scheduled on these routine items.
