Burrillville School Committee approves routine motions including warrant, bid, personnel and policy readings
Summary
The committee approved minutes, a fiscal warrant, a $143,644.37 audio‑system bid, personnel resignations and appointments, policy readings, a 10¢ meal price increase and several student activity requests in a series of voice votes.
At its May 13 meeting the Burrillville School Committee approved a slate of routine motions by voice vote.
Among the actions: approval of the April 8, 2025 meeting minutes (motion by Donison, second Sean); approval of fiscal year 2425 warrant number 10 (mover Donison, second Sylvia) with the mover stating a warrant total of $1,291,158.51; award of a $143,644.37 bid for an audio sound system to ATR Treehouse (mover Dave, second Sean); acceptance with regret of the resignation of Catherine Lord, Barber Middle School principal, effective June 30, 2025 (mover Donison, second Sylvia); and receiving and filing subsequent personnel appointments (mover Donison, second Jill).
The committee also received and filed budget updates for FY25 and a rent budget update, approved the second revised reading of Policy P‑4320 (budget and finance) and approved Policy 7314 (school wellness) on second revised reading. New business votes included approval of homeschool applications, a 10‑cent increase to school meal prices, and approval of a SkillsUSA overnight field trip to Atlanta.
Several motions were conducted by voice vote; detailed individual roll‑call tallies were not recorded in the transcript. One figure spoken during the warrant approval (a “grand total” of $200,000,974,951.72) appears inconsistent with the stated warrant amount and may be a transcription or speaker error.
