Board approves personnel items, swim‑safety partnership, conference attendance and a meeting time change
Summary
The Dearborn Heights School District #7 board approved agenda adoption, non‑certified staff hires, certified resignations, a water‑safety partnership reimbursable up to $4,450, trustee attendance at a professional conference (cost not to exceed $2,500 each) and set the March 19 meeting to start at 6:30 p.m.; the Rotary corporate membership item was tabled.
At its March 5 meeting, the Dearborn Heights School District No. 7 board approved several routine personnel and partnership items and took action on meeting logistics.
Early in the meeting trustees adopted the March 5 agenda as amended on a roll call vote. Later, under superintendent recommendations, the board approved non‑certified staff appointments (named individuals and effective dates were read into the record) and accepted a certified staff resignation; both motions passed on roll call.
The board approved a collaborative 2025 water‑safety and swim‑lesson partnership with the Clinton Metropolitan Authority and Dearborn Heights School District No. 7. Per the motion, the district will pay upfront and be reimbursed up to $4,450 for the program. Trustees asked for contract language clarifying that Dearborn Heights students receive registration priority and for clarity on who will manage registration.
The board tabled a proposed corporate membership in the Dearborn Heights Rotary Club until the next meeting so members can follow up on representation and meeting schedules.
Trustees also approved attendance for two board members (Alise Stanovic and Tanya Sterlini) at the Michigan Association of School Boards 2025 Spring Institute (May 2–4); the district cost was not to exceed $2,500 per person from general funds. Finally, by roll call vote the board approved changing the March 19 regular meeting start time to 6:30 p.m. so members could attend a senior fashion‑show event.
Motions were taken and approved by roll call for each item; the record shows unanimous or near‑unanimous yes votes on the listed motions as read aloud.
