Board approves maintenance and nursing contracts; personnel slate accepted
Summary
The board approved a countywide elevator maintenance contract, a nursing services renewal for medically fragile students, and accepted personnel recommendations; staff reported stronger than expected May cash receipts.
At its June 22 meeting the Ohio County Board of Education approved several vendor contracts and personnel actions.
Facilities: The board accepted a bid from Integrity Elevator LLC for countywide elevator maintenance at $68,250 annually. Staff said the contract should reduce current annual elevator costs by roughly $15,000. The motion to award the contract passed unanimously.
Student health services: The board approved a renewal with Interim Healthcare (Pittsburgh/Morgantown) to provide licensed nurses for one‑on‑one care of medically fragile students. Staff described the agreement as a routine renewal; board members said services have been satisfactory and the motion passed unanimously.
Personnel: Dr. Miller recommended and the board approved a personnel slate that included the hire of Adria Lorenzo as a countywide 200‑day multicategorical special education teacher (autism endorsement) assigned to Richie Elementary, several reassignment and credential updates, and other routine personnel matters. The board approved the personnel items by voice vote.
Finance: District finance staff reported an unusually strong May cash‑receipt month (roughly $5 million versus a typical ~$500,000), improving the district’s carryover position; expenses remain slightly above plan but manageable because of prior conservative budgeting.
