Summary
At its December meeting the board approved an unmodified annual audit, multiple MOUs (Right at School; Community Health Commission; University City Education Foundation), the updated 2025-26 budget, a revised special-education compliance plan and a construction administration contract for Flint Park gym improvements.
The University City Board of Education recorded a series of routine approvals at its meeting, adopting audit and budget documents and extending several memoranda of understanding.
Key actions recorded in the meeting transcript:
- Audit report: The board accepted the district's annual audit after external auditor Judith Mueller reported unmodified opinions on financial statements and federal-award compliance; no findings were reported.
- MOUs: The board approved an MOU with Right at School to provide before-and-aftercare at elementary schools; an MOU with the Community Health Commission to create a youth-led grantmaking council (funded by the St. Louis County Children's Services Fund); and an annual MOU extension with the University City Education Foundation.
- Budget: The board adopted the updated 2025-26 all-funds budget after finance staff presented revenue, debt-service and operating projections (see separate coverage).
- Compliance plan: The revised local compliance plan for early childhood special education (changes arising from Senate Bill 68) was approved as presented.
- Capital/Construction: The board approved an increase to the task order and associated construction-administration services (HPW Architects) for Flint Park gymnasium improvements, which raised the expenditure above the $50,000 board-approval threshold.
Most approvals were made by voice vote with no opposed responses recorded in the transcript; the meeting did not include roll-call tallies in the provided segments.
