Board approves minutes and $500 donation; treasurer and personnel updates presented
Summary
The Carlisle Local board approved meeting minutes and a $500 donation, received an audit-status update from the treasurer, and reviewed personnel and policy items to return for later action.
At its regular meeting, the Carlisle Local Board of Education approved the minutes from the December regular meeting and the Jan. 9 organizational meeting and unanimously approved a $500 donation to a local 'neediest kids of all' fund.
The motion to approve the minutes was moved and seconded (mover: Mr. Jewell; seconder: Ms. Milligan) and passed on a roll‑call vote. When the presiding member called the roll, the responding board members recorded affirmative votes.
Treasurer Mr. Baster gave the finance report and said, “My first item is my audit update, and my audit update is I have no update,” adding that he expected to hear from state auditors soon and that payroll W‑2s had been distributed. He also noted recent bus purchases and incidents as local financial outliers.
The superintendent presented several administrative action items for future approval: first readings of policy updates supplied by Neola to address recent legislative and executive changes, proposed 2025–26 and 2026–27 school calendars (previously discussed) and an annual resolution certifying that district policies align with Ohio Department of Education guidance. The superintendent also asked the board to approve a new 4‑hour custodial position retroactive to Jan. 6, an educational aide and custodial assignment, and several supplemental coaching resignations or reassignments for personal reasons.
The board recorded the donation approval after the treasurer’s report; the donation was described in the meeting as $500 from '2 grips' to the 'neediest kids of all' fund and was approved by voice/roll call.
No motions to hire or fill personnel items were recorded as completed votes in the provided transcript text; those items were presented for approval. The superintendent said discipline data and other reports will be posted to the district website and that the SRO (school resource officer) hiring timeline had applications due this week with potential placement in February.
The meeting continued with additional routine business and follow‑up items to return to the board for final action.
