The board approved 2026–27 early childhood and extended-day tuition rates with no increase for parents and a 3% salary and step increase for early childhood staff; Trustee Frazier abstained from the vote due to a conflict of interest (spouse employed in early childhood).
The Northville Public Schools Board approved rates for the 2026–27 early childhood education and extended-day programs and authorized a 3% pay increase plus step increases for early childhood teachers and staff, while holding parent tuition rates steady.
Vice President Stewart presented motion 88 to approve the rates. Staff noted the district was able to keep tuition unchanged for parents while also giving staff a 3% raise and step increases. The board discussed the addition of GSRP classrooms as part of the program expansion and said the district will monitor that model for another year.
Trustee Frazier declared a conflict of interest earlier in the meeting because their spouse works in early childhood and reiterated they would abstain from the vote; the transcript records that abstention. The motion passed by voice vote with the abstention noted in the record.
