Board approves ambulance coverage, settlement and Camp Curtain cafeteria expansion; dozens of contracts moved to consent agenda
Summary
At its June 9 Committee of the Whole, the Harrisburg board approved immediate action items including ambulance coverage for graduation, a special education settlement, a collective bargaining agreement, an assistant superintendent contract extension and a Camp Curtain cafeteria expansion; many other contracts were forwarded to the June 23 consent agenda.
The Harrisburg City School District board approved several immediate action items and moved many routine contracts to the June 23 consent agenda during its June 9 Committee of the Whole meeting.
Key votes
- Ambulance coverage agreement (item 5.1): The board voted to treat the ambulance coverage agreement as an immediate action and then approved the contract for ambulance coverage during Harrisburg High School graduation. The immediate‑action motion to place the item on tonight’s agenda passed by roll call and the approval vote recorded 8 yes, 0 no, 0 abstain.
- Special education settlement agreement: Approved as an immediate action item with roll call 8 yes, 0 no, 0 abstain.
- ASME tentative collective bargaining agreement: The board approved a one‑year tentative agreement (July 1, 2026–June 30, 2027) as an immediate action item; the roll call vote recorded 7 yes, 0 no, 0 abstain.
- Assistant superintendent one‑year contract extension: Because the board did not take affirmative action before the contract’s 90‑day window expired, the board formalized a one‑year extension under the public school code; roll call 7 yes, 0 no, 0 abstain.
- Camp Curtain cafeteria: The board approved a $46,770 equipment package for the Camp Curtain side cafeteria and, after discussing repricing and previously budgeted credits, approved the expanded cafeteria construction proposal; net additional local capital need was reported as approximately $104,544 after credits and contingency; the immediate action vote was 7 yes, 0 no, 0 abstain.
Other business
Administration also presented a long consent agenda of contracts, MOUs and program agreements to appear on the June 23 consent agenda, including agreements with Head Start, the Capitol Area IU, instructional coaching services, technology data‑share transfers, and several vendor renewals (Kelly Services, charter and special‑education placement agreements, and insurance renewals). The board moved most of these routine items forward for formal action at the June 23 meeting.
Votes and procedural notes were recorded in the public minutes; any specific contract language and dollar amounts will appear with the June 23 consent packet or are recorded in tonight’s motions as noted.
