Summary
During public session the board approved minutes, multiple personnel motions (resignations, appointments, leaves), financial reports, several high‑value donations (including a $46,000 gift for a playground and interactive boards/sound system donations), and endorsements of CSE/CPSE special‑education actions.
The board moved through a series of routine agenda items during the public meeting and approved multiple motions by voice vote. The actions included approval of minutes from prior meetings; professional and civil‑service resignations and retirements; leaves and appointments; substitute lists; coaching rosters and salary schedules; financial reports and claims-auditor filings for October and November 2025; and an updated IRS mileage allowance that became effective Jan. 1, 2026.
Trustees accepted several notable donations: interactive communication boards for the UPK Center, Mary G. Clarkson and South Country schools (donor: Rocco's Voice for Autism); a new sound system for Mary G. Clarkson donated by Matthew Modula Jr. of Talking Moose Productions LLC; and a $46,000 Hogland family donation to improve the Gardner Manor playground. Board members acknowledged and thanked donors.
The board also endorsed Committee on Special Education and Committee on Preschool Special Education actions for students, adopted revised policies for organizational meetings and notices, and approved an impartial hearing officer (case number cited). All motions were carried by voice vote; no roll-call tallies were recorded in the transcript.
