Votes at a glance: Henniker board approves hires, policies, grant assurances and meal-price increases
Summary
At the meeting the board approved a nomination for a school psychologist, authorized between-meeting hiring approvals, adopted the consent-agenda policies, approved federal grant assurances, raised meal prices modestly, and approved a nonresident employee enrollment request; all actions were approved by voice vote as recorded in the meeting.
The Henniker School Board took several formal actions by voice vote during the meeting:
- The board approved the April 1 minutes after a motion and second. - The board voted to accept the nomination of Caitlin Pike for the district school-psychologist position; Pike had completed a two-year waiting period that permitted the hire. - Trustees authorized board leadership to finalize hiring authorizations between meetings to allow prompt offers to candidates. - The board adopted the policies placed on the consent agenda (no items were pulled for separate consideration at this meeting). - The board approved the federal grant assurances packet (EdGrants) as presented, noting updated definitions and a reduction in one assurance in the state'wide application. - Trustees approved modest student meal-price increases after a recommendation from Chris: elementary lunch to $3.30, middle-school lunch to $3.45, breakfast to $2.25 for students and $3.00 for adults, and adult lunch to $4.30. - The board approved a year-by-year JFAVA request to allow a faculty member's nonresident kindergarten child to attend the district subject to sending-district coordination and capacity.
Votes were recorded by voice; the meeting transcript records "aye" responses and no opposed votes on these items. No roll-call tallies were provided in the record.
