The Garfield Heights City Schools Board of Education completed routine procedural business at its April 20 meeting, adopting the agenda, approving prior minutes and advancing several financial and policy items by roll call.

The meeting opened with a motion to adopt the April 20 agenda. The chair called for roll call after motions were made; members present recorded affirmative votes to adopt the agenda. The board later approved the minutes and moved through committee reports and presentations.

The board reviewed March financials and considered agenda items including a transfer from the general fund to the severance/termination benefit fund (035), a transfer into the district uniform purchase fund (009) to cover costs the district now carries, and a monthly appropriation amendment to reconcile numbers with the county fiscal records.

On procedural votes, the board voted to waive certain agenda readings and to approve first readings of listed policies. During one roll call on a motion to waive item 15.1, board member Ms. Cox recorded an abstention while other members voted yes. The board scheduled a special meeting for May 11 at 6 p.m. and its next regular meeting for May 18 at 6 p.m. at Garfield Heights High School, and then adjourned.

The meeting record shows no contested motions that failed; items described as transfers and appropriations will be tracked in upcoming board materials and county filings.
