Board approves policies, field trip and $100,000 benefit reserve; minutes and resignation accepted
Summary
At its March meeting the Trumansburg Central School District board approved minutes, accepted a staff resignation, adopted several policies (including updated language on permissible physical intervention), approved a high-school field trip and established a $100,000 employee-benefit accrued liability reserve under state law.
The Trumansburg Central School District board held routine business at its March 25 meeting, approving several motions by voice vote before adjourning to executive session.
The board approved the minutes of the March 11, 2025 meeting and accepted the resignation of Sue Peters, whose long service as a first-grade teacher and RTI provider was recognized. Trustees also approved the first reading and adoption of policies including 7350 (permissible physical intervention), which the superintendent said had minor wording adjustments to align with regional therapeutic crisis-intervention training. Board members discussed updated guidance for a student board member (a one-year term with possibility to serve again) and agreed to finalize procedures after NISBA/NYSBA guidance and training.
Other actions included approval of the high school drama club field trip to New York City on May 24 (motion carried) and a resolution establishing an employee-benefit accrued liability reserve under New York General Municipal Law Section 6-p, authorizing transfer of $100,000 from undesignated fund balance to the reserve. Voice votes were used for these actions; no roll-call tallies were recorded in the public transcript.
What’s next: the board reconvenes for budget updates in two weeks; the meeting closed into executive session to discuss financial or employment matters and did not return to public session that evening.
