Warren City Board approves consent agenda including minutes, financials, grants, contracts and personnel actions; votes to notify ODE about employee termination
Summary
The board unanimously approved routine consent items — September minutes and financials, revised co-curricular budget, grants, contracts, teacher/principal evaluation certifications, tuition reimbursements, acceptance of donor gifts, and personnel recommendations — and approved a resolution directing the superintendent to notify the Ohio Department of Education about a teacher's unilateral termination; roll-call votes were recorded on each item.
At its Oct. 22 meeting the Warren City Board of Education approved the consent agenda and a separate personnel-related resolution following the superintendent's report.
On the consent agenda the board voted to approve the September 2024 board minutes; the September 2024 financial statement and short-term investments; the revised 2024-25 co-curricular budget and purpose statements; acceptance and appropriation of a listed grant; superintendent recommendations to enter into agreements, contracts or leases; Ohio Department of Education certifications for the teacher and principal evaluation systems; tuition reimbursement approvals; acceptance of multiple donor gifts (including church and individual donors and a Walmart donation for school supplies); and personnel recommendations including retirements. Roll-call votes were recorded for each item and the chair announced the motions carried.
Separately the board approved a resolution authorizing the superintendent to notify the Ohio Department of Education's Office of Professional Conduct regarding an employee's unilateral termination/absence from assignment after July 10, 2024. The transcript lists the employee name in inconsistent forms (e.g., "Frank KY" and "Frank coni") and states the resignation/absence was not accepted by the superintendent. The resolution cites Ohio Revised Code section 331.9.15 in the text read aloud during the meeting.
Recorded roll calls on motions shown in the transcript list board responses as affirmative for the voting members (Dr R; Mr Flanigan; Mr Walker; Mrs lmos; plus the chair when called). The meeting materials referenced specific pages and exhibits for several consent items (minutes, financial exhibits, budget pages) but the board did not pause for substantive debate on these standard items.
The board recessed again at 7:05 p.m. for an executive session on district security and emergency-response protocols; the public was dismissed and no further public action was announced at the meeting's close.
