Summary
The Crete Public Schools Board approved the published consent agenda, covering previous meeting minutes, claims (including utilities and vendor invoices), bids, staff adjustments and the treasurer's report, by roll call; no policy first/final reads were included despite agenda wording.
The board approved the consent agenda as published after a brief discussion of claims and a roll-call vote. Items included minutes from the prior meeting, claims as submitted, bid proposals, staff adjustments, the treasurer’s report and listed policy first/final reads (board staff clarified there were actually no policy first or final reads on the consent agenda).
Dr. McDowell highlighted several claims of interest before the vote: a City of Crete utilities charge referenced at $56,092.98 (noting a year-over-year increase), a Lexia Learning Systems invoice ($39,008.44) reimbursed via the CLSD grant, an annual website/communication vendor payment (~$29,221.50 to Aptogee), vertical coaching professional-development costs of $15,000, and a one-time motor-coach expense of $4,645 for travel. Board roll call recorded the motion as approved; the president announced "The consent agenda is approved as published."
