Board hears requests to approve math consultant and audiology agreement for student services
Summary
District staff asked the board to approve an ongoing math-preparation contract with an outside consultant (MAS/Meredith) and an agreement with Western Carolina Audiology to provide hearing screens and follow-up. Both were presented for approval; no final votes were recorded in the transcript.
Haywood County Schools staff presented two service agreements for board approval: continued work by an outside math-preparation consultant and an agreement with Western Carolina Audiology to provide hearing screening training and follow-up services.
Speaker 2 said the math consultant (referred to in the transcript as "Meredith" and MAS) has worked with the district for seven to eight years, providing math preparation and training for elementary and middle schools. Staff said they sought board approval to renew or continue the contract now that federal funding was available for middle-school math supports.
On student health services, Speaker 2 described an agreement with Western Carolina Audiology to train staff to conduct hearing screens and to provide follow-up care for students who did not have existing screening records. "This is to provide training for our... staff in conducting hearing screens and then also to provide follow-up for our kids who don't have hearing screens," Speaker 2 said.
The transcript records presentation and requests for approval but does not show a completed vote on either item. Details such as contract value, term dates, or specific funding sources were not provided in the transcript and are marked "not specified."
