Board adopts policy revisions, ratifies personnel moves and accepts donation
Summary
The board adopted multiple policy revisions, approved personnel resignations and appointments, ratified volunteers, and accepted a donated Cordoba classical guitar for Hartwood Elementary during its Dec. 2 meeting.
At the Dec. 2 meeting the Fox Chapel board approved several policy revisions, moved personnel items and accepted a donation for Hartwood Elementary.
Board members approved second readings and adoptions for a set of policy revisions (policy numbers recited in the meeting). Members praised revisions to the district's media-relations policy for stronger privacy protections.
Human resources brought three personnel items to the board: multiple resignations from supplemental athletic and nonathletic contracts; appointment of supplemental coaching and sponsor positions (including volleyball and swimming assistants and other assignments); and ratification of volunteers for athletics. The motions were moved, seconded and carried by roll call.
The operations item accepted an anonymous donation of a Cordoba classical acoustic guitar for Hartwood Elementary; trustees thanked the donor and the music program. Instruction also presented and the board approved a new service agreement with Goldfinch Learning Services, LLC to provide professional development and consultation to special education staff (effective Dec. 3, 2025 to June 30, 2026). "This is a new service," a mover said during discussion.
What happens next: administration will execute contracts and process personnel actions as approved; the Goldfinch contract will be implemented by the instruction department to support students with specific needs.
