District 128 board OKs several intergovernmental agreements, staffing reports and employee handbook
Summary
On unanimous roll-call votes the board approved a consent agenda and separate action items including an ombudsman/alternative education agreement, intergovernmental agreements with the Village of Libertyville and neighboring districts for services, an ESP staffing report and a nonunion ESP employee handbook and compensation changes for 2026–27.
The District 128 board approved the consent agenda and a string of action items in a series of roll-call votes recorded as 'Aye.' Items approved included an ombudsman/alternative-education services agreement for 2026–27, an intergovernmental shared-facilities agreement with the Village of Libertyville, an intergovernmental itinerant service agreement for deaf and hard-of-hearing services with District 120, the annual Education Support Professionals staffing report, and an employee handbook and salary/benefit adjustments for the district's nonunion ESP staff.
Administrators described the nonunion ESP changes as enhancements focused on longevity, vacation-day increases and buyback opportunities for roughly 20 nonunion positions; some positions are 12-month and some 10-month employees. The board discussed compliance and classification matters and confirmed motions by roll call. For each vote the clerk read members' names and recorded "Aye," and the chair announced that motions passed.
Why it matters: These approvals finalize staffing, service contracts and operational materials that affect day-to-day student services, shared facilities use and support personnel compensation in 2026–27. Several items (shared facilities, itinerant services) expand or formalize partnerships with neighboring governments and districts.
What passed: The meeting transcript records unanimous 'Aye' votes on the consent agenda and the named agreements and reports. The board then moved into closed session to discuss employment matters.
