Summary

The board approved routine business including the manifest, consent agenda (personnel resignation), three policy adoptions (enrollment capacity, advanced coursework funding change, athletic emergency plan), two donations, and a Special Olympics field trip; nonpublic session postponed due to weather.

At the meeting following the budget hearing, the Contoocook Valley School District board approved several routine items and adopted policy updates.

The board certified and approved a manifest totaling $3,621,256.84. It accepted a personnel resignation (Tammy Abare, first-grade teacher at Peterborough Elementary School) as part of a consent agenda approved by roll call.

Policy actions: the board adopted Policy JF (enrollment and enrollment capacity), directing the superintendent to prepare an annual enrollment-capacity report no later than June 3; it approved changes to IHCD/LEB (advanced coursework, AP and STEM dual/concurrent enrollment) to reflect a legislative funding change limiting state funding to two courses per student per year; and it re-adopted JLCJA (emergency plan for sports-related injuries and athletic participation protocols) with clarifying updates. All three policies passed by roll call.

Donations: the board accepted a donation from Union Congregational Church to South Meadow School to support families in need and a $943 donation from Lamey's Black Belt Academy to Peterborough Elementary School. The board also approved travel for Special Olympics athletes to attend winter games, March 2–4.

Because of impending weather, the nonpublic session was postponed to the next meeting and the board adjourned.
