Loading...
Summary
The Lewisburg Area School District board approved a memorandum of understanding with the CSIU to expand in-person counseling options for students and voted to approve a 9-1-1 location-compliance system, a wireless-microphone upgrade and asphalt repairs. All motions carried on roll call.
The Lewisburg Area School District board approved a memorandum of understanding with the Central Susquehanna Intermediate Unit (CSIU) to refer students to an in-person clinic offering counseling and therapy, and it approved several district purchases and contracts during its regular meeting.
The MOU with CSIU, presented as an additional option for families seeking in-person therapy, was described by staff (S3) as likely funded through the district’s regular learning grant. "There is a cost per student," the staff presenter said, noting the agreement adds an in-person alternative to existing virtual services.
Board members then voted on multiple consent items and purchases. The board approved a 9-1-1 location-compliance system previously discussed in the district’s technology report; a fully funded purchase to upgrade the high-school wireless microphone system; and asphalt repairs for campus parking lots. Each item was moved, seconded and carried on roll-call votes.
Clerk (S10) read the roll calls for the motions; for the MOU the clerk announced affirmative votes and, after the roll call, stated that the "motion carried." The board also approved the consent agenda, which included personnel reports and routine items.
The contracts and purchases approved are scheduled to be implemented as part of normal procurement and facilities processes; staff indicated they would return to the board with final contract language where drafts remain under negotiation.
What comes next: staff will finalize contract details for the CSIU MOU and return to the board if substantive changes to funding or scope are proposed. Other approved purchases will move forward under existing procurement authority and budgeted funding.
