Board approves consent agenda, personnel items and financial renewals including dental contract

The Perry Local School District Board of Education moved and approved the consent agenda and associated personnel and financial items during its regular meeting.

The board accepted a slate of routine agenda items including policy readings, personnel approvals (retirements, supplemental and substitute appointments), volunteer appointments (one volunteer recommendation was removed pending receipt of a people-activity permit), and approval of a sixth-grade out-of-state trip to Camp Fitch. The superintendent noted that specific volunteer paperwork was missing for one recommended volunteer (Nicholas Mann) and that item was withdrawn pending completion of documentation.

On financial business the board reviewed and approved the September 2025 financial report and authorized the chief financial officer to renew a one-year contract with Oasis Dental Trust effective Jan. 1, 2026 to provide employee dental benefits. The board also approved a payment-in-lieu of transportation resolution for a student for the 2025-26 school year after the CFO said transportation for that student would be impractical; the CFO cited statutory parameters that guide such determinations and referenced Ohio Revised Code section 3327.

A roll call was held for the financial items; multiple board members answered affirmatively by name in the transcript and the chair announced the items approved. No contested motions or recorded nay votes appear in the transcript excerpt.
