Board approves hires, pay application and rooftop unit replacement; votes at a glance
Summary
At its March 10 meeting the Northbrook SD 28 board appointed a secretary pro tem, approved Dr. Eric Abgar as director of student services, approved pay application number seven, authorized rooftop HVAC replacements at Westmore with grant match, and approved personnel resolutions for program and year‑to‑year positions.
The Northbrook SD 28 Board of Education recorded several formal actions on March 10, including personnel appointments, contract payments and facility appropriations.
The board appointed Christine as secretary pro tem for the meeting (motion carried by affirmative roll‑call responses). It approved the appointment of Dr. Eric Abgar as director of student services effective July 1, 2026, after the superintendent recommended him; the vote was recorded by roll call with the present board members voting in the affirmative.
Personnel motions: the board approved a resolution discontinuing a .5 FTE orchestra director position tied to a program shift, and approved a practice of honorably dismissing year‑to‑year permanent substitute positions to align with hiring practices; both motions were approved by roll call.
Finance and contracts: the board approved the February financial report and approved HAB builder pay application number seven after contractor waivers were received. The board also approved replacement of rooftop HVAC units at Westmore and appropriated a $50,000 state grant match toward that project.
Procedural: the consent agenda and minutes were approved by voice and roll call after no items were pulled. The board later moved to go into closed session to discuss personnel, legal counsel matters and student disciplinary cases; that motion passed by roll call.
