Board raises preschool tuition and accepts School Safety Grant; treasurer reports favorable revenues
Summary
The board approved increasing Littlest Generals preschool tuition from $175 to $225 per month; treasurer Amy reported favorable year-to-date revenues, a $40,000 Ohio Attorney General School Safety Grant for a PA system at Melrose, and approved a then-and-now certificate for BoardDocs ($9,600).
The board voted to raise the Littlest Generals preschool tuition from $175 to $225 per month after Superintendent Tudor and Treasurer Amy explained the recommendation is based on local market comparisons and that the program still holds grant-funded slots that cost eligible families nothing. Amy noted the district has not raised preschool rates in several years and that the change will modestly improve program finances.
Treasurer Amy presented the month-end financial report showing state and local revenues trending favorable but expenditures tracking higher due to salary and benefits; she said the forecast will be updated in February. Amy announced the receipt of a $40,000 Ohio Attorney General School Safety Grant to purchase a new PA system at Melrose Elementary.
The board also approved a then-and-now certificate for BoardDocs (invoice amount $9,600) to cover the recurring annual expense where a purchase order was not in place.
Votes: the tuition increase and the then-and-now certificate were both approved by the board during the consent portion of the meeting.
