Board authorizes insurance advertising, $2,500 interpreter supplement and fencing quote process
Summary
The board voted to advertise for general liability and fleet insurance, approved a $2,500 supplement (paid from Title funds) for one staff interpreter for a year, and authorized administration to obtain three quotes to secure fencing for all schools after waiving agenda policy to add the item.
At the Aug. 4 meeting, the St. John the Baptist Parish School Board approved several administrative and finance items.
Mrs. Janice Gauthier requested the board grant approval to advertise for general liability and fleet insurance; the motion to advertise carried on roll call. Superintendent Rebecca Johnson requested approval of a $2,500 supplement for one staff member to provide interpreting services for one year, to be paid from Title funds; the board approved the supplement on a motion by Jones and second by Triche. The meeting minutes record the vote as 10 yeas with one member absent.
During new business, the board considered fencing and site-security matters. After discussion, the board voted to waive policy and amend the agenda to add an action item, then authorized administration to obtain three quotes to secure fencing for all district schools (motion by Jones; second by Schum). The motion carried on roll call.
These administrative approvals are recorded in the meeting minutes; the supplement is funded through federal Title funds as noted by the Superintendent.
