The Brighton Central School District Board of Education approved routine business items and read gifts at its Dec. 3 public meeting.
A memorandum of agreement between district administrators and the district was presented; Carrie Lynn moved to approve, Eleanor seconded and the board approved the MOA by voice vote. The board also approved financial reports as received after a motion from Karen and a second by Esther.
Three second‑read policies were read aloud and approved as a block: Policy 5130 (budget adoption), Policy 5140 (administration of the budget) and Policy 6213 (registration and professional learning). The board approved cooperative bid evaluations for electricity supply and for food-services equipment repair, maintenance and installation. All motions were adopted by voice vote; the transcript records board members responding 'Aye' with no roll-call tallies provided.
Under the consent agenda the board approved personnel changes, Committee on Special Education (CSE) and Committee on Preschool Special Education (CPSE) items, field-trip requests (including a French trip to Quebec, Canada), and fundraising activities. The board also read three gifts into the record: $1,700 from the Brighton Central School Alumni Association to send four students to the 2025 HOBY Leadership conference; $10,000 from the Brighton Education Fund to bring author Thomas Kersting to speak; and $1,710 from the Brighton Education Fund to purchase math-and-movement floor mats for Council Rock Primary School, totaling $12,410.
Board members encouraged community participation in a facilities vote the next day (polls open 7 a.m.–7 p.m.).
