South Euclid-Lyndhurst superintendent celebrates levy win, pledges accountability and transparency

Superintendent Dr. Fuller announced the successful levy result and laid out how the district will use the mandate. "Our levy passed and it passed on the first attempt," Dr. Fuller said, thanking voters, mayors and city councils in South Euclid and Lyndhurst for their partnership.

Dr. Fuller told the board and community that the district will focus on three commitments in the coming year: accountability (responsible stewardship of levy funds), communication (open and consistent information to families and staff) and visibility (increased presence across both cities). "With this support comes responsibility, and we embrace it fully," Dr. Fuller said, adding the district will demonstrate how levy funds strengthen schools.

The superintendent also thanked staff and volunteers involved in the campaign and noted that the recent financial forecast and updated tax budget were directly affected by the levy passage. Board members and staff who spoke during the meeting echoed appreciation for campaign volunteers and longtime community supporters. The administration did not present specific line-item spending decisions at the meeting; those will be part of future budgeting and reporting processes.

The board moved on to routine consent and action items after the superintendent's report. The meeting later entered a brief executive session during which no formal action was taken.
