Summary
At its Nov. 19 meeting the Monroe-Woodbury Board approved the revised agenda, posted a revised districtwide safety plan for a 30-day public comment period, approved minutes and personnel, and adjourned twice to executive session, including a final session to discuss an investigation of a public official.
The Monroe-Woodbury Central School District Board of Education took a series of routine and procedural actions at its Nov. 19 meeting, approving consent and personnel items, advancing a safety-plan posting, and adjourning into executive session twice.
Key actions taken
- Approved a motion to adjourn temporarily into executive session to discuss personnel matters (motion carried, members voted "Aye").
- Approved a revised meeting agenda after a motion and second (carried).
- Approved the district's step to post the revised districtwide safety plan, which includes newly required cardiac-arrest preparedness language, on the district website for a 30-day public posting period ahead of readoption (motion carried).
- Approved the minutes of the Nov. 5, 2025 meeting and multiple personnel items (items 15.1' 15.8), as well as business and financial items (16.1'16.6) and committees on special education items (17.1' 17.5); motions were moved, seconded, and carried with "Aye" votes recorded.
- Approved an amendment to add the superintendent's tenure recommendations to the agenda; the board subsequently recognized six midyear tenure recipients (Corinne LaForge; Vincent Vespa; Michelle Jacoby; Teresita Cueva; Michelle Liriano; Sandra Serva).
- Approved a motion to adjourn into executive session to discuss an investigation of a public official; motion carried and the board proceeded into closed session.
What the record shows: Most motions were moved and seconded from the dais and recorded as carried with "Aye" votes. Where a specific board member name was not read into the transcript at the point of motion, the meeting record shows the procedural vote and the motion outcome rather than an individualized mover/seconder attribution.
Next steps: Final action items that require additional documentation ' such as personnel appointments and contract awards ' will be reflected in the minutes and in future consent agendas when formal contract awards or additional reports are available.
