SIA grant agreement: Deputy Superintendent Dr. Lisa Burke summarized planned uses of Student Investment Account funds (prioritizing staffing and support for student programs under flat SIA funding). Director Ross Tomlin moved to approve acceptance of the SIA grant agreement; Director Cameron Fisher seconded and the board approved the motion.
Budget committee appointments: The board considered reappointments and vacancies on the budget committee.
