The Marple Newtown School Board amended its agenda item for motion 13.07 at the start of its March 24 meeting to reduce the annual Chromebook cost to $155,265.15, and then approved the agenda as amended. The Board President introduced the alteration as an amendment to the listed amount, prompting a motion and a second; the motion was adopted by voice vote with the chair noting, “The ayes have it.”
The amendment was referenced again during the facilities and transportation committee report as the board moved through committee items. The transcript records the change to motion 13.07 but does not provide a recorded mover by name; the second to the agenda motion was given by the participant who led the pledge. The board recorded seven members present for the vote.
The board proceeded to consider other committee items after the amendment and the brief awards segment. The transcript does not show further details (contract language, vendor name, or implementation timetable) for the Chromebook motion in this meeting.
