At its Feb. 11 meeting the Conneaut SD board approved a package of financial and personnel items—including a vacant-building commercial insurance policy and the 2023–24 audit—while tabling an amendment to compensatory educational funds and noting insurance figures added to the agenda.
The Conneaut SD Board of Directors on Feb. 11 approved multiple financial, personnel and policy items and tabled an amendment to compensatory educational funds.
The board approved the agenda with additions, including two insurance figures added for agenda item 14f. A committee member noted, "The first 1 is 2,500,000.0, and the second 1, the premium cost is $55,497.60." The board voted by voice and the chair declared the motion carried.
The board approved items 14a–14f (while 14e was tabled): 14a (Bethesda Lutheran Service Mental Health Liaison), 14b (disabled veterans real estate property tax exemption), 14c (authority for the secretary of the board and superintendent to invest district funds), 14d (the 2023–24 school-year audit), and 14f (the vacant building commercial-package policy). The earlier motion to table 14e (the amendment to compensatory educational funds) was moved by Mister Williamson, seconded by Mister Hall, and carried.
The board also approved the treasurer's reports, budget transfers and January 2026 general fund and cafeteria food-service bills after a motion moved by Mister Klink and seconded by Mister Williams; the motion carried with a recorded no vote from Mister Schaef. The minutes were approved on a separate voice vote after a motion by Mister Clink and second by Mister Hall.
On personnel matters the board approved items 19a–19l, including bus-driver listings, contracted custodians, leave and conference requests, resignations, student-activities field trips (with an addition), fundraising and supplemental coaches for 2025–26; the motion carried with at least one recorded dissent noted in the minutes. The board also approved items 16a–16c: the 2025–26 graduating-seniors list, the 2026–27 school-year calendar, and a sick-day request.
Facility-use requests (with a fee waiver) and revised new bus routes (items 21a and 22a) were approved following a motion by Mister Hall and second by Mister Clink.
The meeting concluded with announcements about upcoming committee and budget meetings and a confirmation that there would be no post-meeting executive session. A motion to adjourn was approved and the meeting ended.
