Summary

Administrators presented a contract to move HR and applicant tracking to Red Rover (implementation July 1, 2026) paid from the current budget, discussed transporting two students to New Story to meet IEPs, and renewed the township tax collector agreement increasing the per-bill rate closer to county averages.

The board reviewed several routine contracts and operational items. Administration proposed transitioning to the Red Rover platform for applicant tracking, absence management, time and attendance, and professional development, with implementation planned January–June and the system effective July 1, 2026. Officials said implementation fees will be paid from the current year's budget and emphasized Red Rover is an employee-focused system rather than a student database.

Separately, the board reviewed a contract to continue transporting two new students to New Story so their IEP placements can be maintained. The administration described this as consistent with past practice for students placed off-site under special education requirements.

The board also discussed renewing the township tax collector agreement for Bill Nihanky, noting that business managers across the county reported West York paid below regional averages. The board agreed to raise the rate to $3 per bill, explaining the county charges more to serve as borough tax collector and that interim payment collection requires additional work.

Board members approved routine inventory removal of surplus kitchen equipment (a Hobart slicer) to be taken off the asset inventory and offered for sale on Munisibid because it is nonfunctional and missing parts.

No final contracts were noted as fully executed in the transcript; administration will proceed with implementation steps and place final approval items on the next board agenda where required.
