School board approves broad consent agenda, several purchases and policy updates
Summary
The Collier County School Board unanimously approved a large consent agenda covering construction projects, equipment purchases and contracts, and passed specific new-business purchase increases and a student-records policy revision.
The District School Board of Collier County approved a large consent agenda and several individual motions during its Nov. 12, 2025 regular meeting in Naples.
The board voted unanimously to adopt the amended meeting agenda after a motion by Tim Moshear and a second by Eric Carter. The board then approved all items on the consent agenda, which encompassed dozens of routine and project-specific approvals across teaching and learning, facilities, finance, purchasing and legal matters. Among the facilities and construction items were guaranteed-maximum-price reconciliations and final completions for synthetic turf and field projects at Tommy Barfield Elementary School and Baron Collier High School; air-conditioning renovation phases at Osceola, Pinecrest and the Doctor Martin Luther King Jr. administrative center; roof replacement work at Eden Park Elementary School; and planning for a new elementary school at Ave Maria.
Finance items approved included September 2025 budget amendments and the September 2025 financial statements, and the board approved a statement of work for internal audit consulting services for fiscal year 2025–26. Purchasing approvals covered renewals and award confirmations for fresh-produce contracts; fire-alarm inspection services; storm-drain maintenance; chiller preventative maintenance; LED stadium and field-light replacements at Baron Collier and Naples high schools; and multiple districtwide material and equipment purchases.
In new-business votes, the board approved an increase to purchase order OP# 26‑0002 for teaching-and-learning resources from Textbook Warehouse LLC (motion by Eric Carter, second by Tim Moshear) and an increase to OP# 23A021 for educational resources from Scholastic Inc. (motion by Tim Moshear, second by Eric Carter). The board also approved the second reading and adoption of school board policy 8.330 (student records) (motion by Stephanie Lucarelli, second by Eric Carter). All of these motions carried with the five board members — Eric Carter, Stephanie Lucarelli, Kelly Mason, Tim Moshear and Jerry Rutherford — recorded as voting in favor.
The meeting record shows the board considered a legal-services item referencing Collier County Circuit Court case no. 24CA1529; that settlement item was noted as subject to the attorney–client meeting earlier in the agenda. The board also adopted resolution 25‑201, the Collier County local mitigation strategy plan for 2025, as part of the consent agenda.
The meeting adjourned at 10:57 a.m.
