Board approves consent agenda, policies, appointments and a student‑appeal ruling unanimously

At its meeting the Gates Chili Board of Education moved through a number of consent and action items and recorded unanimous votes for each.

The board approved the consensus agenda (consensus items C through G) following a motion and a unanimous vote in which the chair stated, "The vote is unanimous." The board also approved the varsity track team trip to Harlem, New York (Jan. 9–11, 2026), again by unanimous vote.

On a student disciplinary appeal designated in the transcript as "Student A," the board resolved to uphold the transportation department's determination. The motion on that appeal was moved by Doctor Richards and seconded by Miss Davis; the chair recorded the outcome: "The vote is unanimous."

The policy committee recommended waiving second readings for several policies whose language was described as minor updates to align with state and federal guidance. The board voted to waive the second readings for policies 5413, 5681, 5850, 5851 and 7522, and then voted to approve those policies in one action; the meeting transcript records unanimous votes for both the waiver and the approvals.

The board also approved the appointment of Michael Jeruzzi and Michael Bromley as co‑interim field house supervisors, effective 12/03/2025.

The meeting transcript records the repeated phrase "The vote is unanimous" for each action. The transcript does not provide roll‑call vote counts or an explicit tally of board member names who voted yes; where a motion mover and seconder were recorded (the Student A appeal), those are noted above.
