Summary

The board approved the consent agenda (personnel, payroll, purchase orders), accepted bid results for summer projects, approved travel and trip requests (Reading & Rigor conference, DHS a cappella trip, National Pyramid Model Conference) and authorized expulsion of student 021726; most items passed by roll call.

At its meeting the DeKalb CUSD 428 Board of Education moved, seconded and approved the consent agenda covering personnel actions, purchase order requisitions, payroll for January, accounts payable for February and associated items. The board also approved several agenda items individually: bids for summer projects, staff travel to the Reading & Rigor conference, the DHS a cappella choir trip to Milwaukee in March, and travel to the National Pyramid Model Conference in April.

In new business, the board approved the recommended expulsion of student number 021726 after administration presented the case and the board conducted a roll‑call vote. The expulsion was listed as an information and action item on the agenda and the motion carried.

Several routine items were handled with minimal discussion. The board also gave consensus to continue exploring a strategic planning initiative referenced as Vision 04/28. Where roll‑call responses appear in the transcript, most votes were recorded in the affirmative; on at least one procurement vote a board member registered a dissenting response during roll call.

What’s next: Approved travel and trips will proceed subject to the usual staff confirmations and any required permissions. The expulsion action is effective as recorded in board minutes and will be implemented per district discipline procedures.
