Board actions at a glance: contracts, agreements and routine approvals
Summary
The board approved the consent agenda, multiple service contracts and course restorations; several items were approved by voice vote with no roll‑call tallies recorded in the transcript.
At the November meeting the Franklin Community School Corp. board voted on multiple routine and contract items.
What the board approved by voice vote:
- Consent agenda (general routine approvals). - Center for Special Education Services agreement for contracted school psychology services (presenter said no changes since last month and requested services begin). - Paris counseling contract to provide skills‑based therapy funded by referendum dollars (presenter said Roger approved the contract). - English 12 PLC/Midmark proposal to restore English 12 to the course schedule after vetting by faculty and committee.
All of the items above were moved, seconded and approved by voice vote on the record; the transcript records "aye" responses and no named roll‑call tallies.
One discussed but not approved item (returned in December): the administrator presented options for adding PERF (Public Education Retirement Fund) benefits for food service managers, including actuarial buyout options ranging from about $15,000 to $208,000 and an estimated annual cost of $21,220 (district contribution of 8.2% and employee match of 3%). The administrator said the item would return to the board in December for action.
Administrators also reported a possible immediate purchase of a new 72‑passenger, four‑wheelchair‑position school bus priced at $171,205 as the district closes on a maintenance bond; administrators said they would brief the board as those transactions finalize.
