Waterloo board approves personnel actions, contracts, financials and grants in consent agenda
Summary
The board unanimously approved a package of personnel motions, contracts, the August financials showing an August surplus, two donations and a $4,000 Dollar General literacy grant; motions included a resignation, leave, stipends and multiple vendor agreements.
The Waterloo Local Schools Board of Education approved a series of motions during its regular meeting, including personnel actions, contracts, financial reports and grant acceptance.
Among personnel actions, the board accepted the resignation of cafeteria aide Marcy Ammons effective Aug. 27 and approved a leave of absence for custodian Oneita Salzman (details withheld due to privacy concerns). The board also approved extended days for employees who performed additional work, a list of substitute contracts, LPDC committee stipends, a resident educator mentor stipend, athletic support staff contracts, and supplemental contracts for coaches and advisers. All motions passed by roll call.
On contracts and agreements, the board approved a Cintas contract for uniforms and supplies; a three-year (non-binding on future use) agreement for occupational and physical therapy services with Lisa DCH; a SNAP-Ed/Ohio State partnership to bring nutrition education to students at no cost to the district; and a 12-month school food-service vending agreement with Portage Private Industry Council. The board also approved a then-and-now certificate to correct a purchase-order date for Johnson Controls so auditors are satisfied.
Financial and grant actions included approval of August financial statements showing a general/emergency fund balance and a month surplus (treasurer reported a $1.1 million surplus for August and cited a $1.25 million second-half real estate settlement from 2023 as a major revenue item). The board approved two donations — a flag system valued at $679.95 from the Waterloo Wrestling Association and limestone donation (approx. $500) from Paul Adelman Trucking — and accepted a $4,000 literacy grant from the Dollar General Literacy Foundation to purchase library books.
Most routine items were approved by roll call with listed board members voting yes. The board recessed into an executive session to discuss employment and compensation at the end of the meeting.
