Perrysburg board approves student fees and calendar reduction; schedules finance session

The Perrysburg Exempted Village School Board approved the district's listing of student fees and a proposed reduction-to-days calendar adjustment during its meeting, with roll-call votes by the three members present.

Board members noted the student-fees schedule showed few increases and some reductions. A board member said the finance team had been asked to “look at what you need, not just what’s always been charged,” and praised building principals for reviewing fee necessity before proposing charges. The board then voted to adopt the fee schedule; Miss Phillips, Miss Roland Miller and Miss Lmer recorded affirmative votes during roll call.

The board next considered a reduction-to-days schedule, distributed in hard copy because of issues with the board-docs system. A motion to approve that calendar adjustment was made and seconded; the same three members voted in favor. The chair confirmed the board had a quorum despite two absences and completed the roll calls for both items.

Why it matters: Approving the fee schedule confirms what families will be charged for student activities and materials for the coming year; the calendar adjustment alters the district’s instructional-day schedule and will be reflected in communications to families.

What happens next: The district will publish the approved student-fees listing and the adjusted calendar. Board members discussed dedicating the June 16 meeting as an extended work session to review finance topics, including an "income tax 101" presentation, to provide context for future levy or revenue discussions.

Votes at a glance: The student-fees listing and the reduction-to-days schedule each passed on roll-call votes by the three members present; two board members were absent for the votes. The transcript records yes votes by Miss Phillips, Miss Roland Miller and Miss Lmer and does not record any no or abstain votes.
