Summary
The board approved a supplemental staffing contract with Aya Healthcare and updated policies 2106 (program compliance) and 2107 (CTE); accounts payable was moved into new business and approved (4 ayes, 1 abstention).
At its Feb. 11 meeting, the Granite Falls School District board approved three administrative items: a supplemental staffing provider agreement with Aya Healthcare, an updated program-compliance policy (2106) and an updated career-and-technical-education policy (2107).
Board discussion noted Aya Healthcare is a vendor the district has used previously to fill hard-to-staff positions such as occupational therapists and nurses. A board member moved to approve the supplemental staffing agreement; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote (recorded as "Aye"). The transcript records the voice vote but does not include a roll-call tally for that specific item.
The board then considered two policy readings presented as updates recommended by WASA. Board members characterized the changes as minor and procedural; the motion to approve policy 2106 (program compliance) was made, seconded and approved by voice vote. The updated policy 2107 (Career and Technical Education) was presented as verbatim to the WASA update for its final line and likewise passed by voice vote.
Accounts payable was moved out of the consent agenda at the request of a director who appears on the report so that director could abstain. The board voted to approve accounts payable; the chair recorded "So we have 4 ayes, 1 abstaining." The consent agenda subsequently passed by unanimous consent.
No additional fiscal amounts or contract durations were specified in the discussion recorded in the transcript excerpt. The board did not attach conditions or amendments to the approvals on the floor during this meeting.
