Parma City School District board approves slate of routine resolutions including Shiloh AC retrofit and curriculum items

The Parma City School District Board of Education on Oct. 23 approved a package of routine resolutions, including a contract award for an AC compressor retrofit at Shiloh Middle School and the renewal of the district's English-learner data-management and professional-development system for the 2025'26 school year.

Board member Mr. Rudoff moved to dispense with competitive bidding and award a contract under a cooperative purchasing program for an AC compressor retrofit at Shiloh Middle School (Resolution 2025-10-475); the motion was seconded and approved by roll call. The board also approved the renewal of the English-learner system for 2025'26 (Resolution 2025-10-476) and a sixth-grade field trip to Camp Christopher in May 2026 (Resolution 2025-10-477).

Finance and routine administrative items were approved by roll call votes. The board accepted the September 2025 financial report (Resolution 2025-10-478) and approved an activity purpose statement and contributions and donations (Resolutions 2025-10-480 and 2025-10-481). During discussion of donations and audit adjustments, the treasurer reported audit adjustments dating back to 2022'23 and said the district's bank balance was about $41,000 higher than the district's internal system; staff said funds were not missing and that reconciliation entries were being posted to align records.

Human resources motions covering certificated and classified appointments, confirmations, retirements and leaves were approved (Resolutions 2025-10-483 through 2025-10-487). Superintendent Dr. Hunt introduced and welcomed a new hire, Rhonda Newman, described in the record as a mild-to-moderate intervention specialist who will serve as an educator on special assignment.

Other routine matters approved included the adoption of the meeting agenda (Resolution 2025-10-472), approval of written records from an Oct. 14 special meeting (Resolution 2025-10-474) and acceptance of contributions recorded in Resolution 2025-10-481.
