The Valdez City School District Board approved a series of routine and advocacy items by voice vote.
The consent agenda was moved, seconded and approved by voice vote (clerk reported six yays). Later, the board voted 6–0 to approve a resolution supporting House Bill 78, which would restore an option for a defined-benefit retirement plan; Superintendent Jason Weber told the board he believes the change would improve the district's ability to hire and retain teachers.
