Mapleton Local board accepts November finances, approves fraud-protection software and creates new grant fund
Summary
At its Dec. 9 meeting the Mapleton Local Board of Education approved the November 2024 financial report, a $3,822 purchase of the Bonefish Systems accounts payable fraud-protection system, a $10,850 scholarship transfer, and created the 'Go Go Gadget Learning!' grant fund (019-920G).
Board member ShaNa Benner called the Mapleton Local Board of Education to order Dec. 9, 2024, and the board moved early in the meeting to accept the district's November financial report.
Vince Hartzler moved, seconded by ShaNa Benner, to accept the November 2024 financial report “as presented.” The motion carried with all five members recorded as voting yes. The minutes record the vote as: Vince Hartzler, Yes; ShaNa Benner, Yes; Kathy Goon, Yes; Fred Hartzler, Yes; Mindy Scurlock, Yes.
The board also approved a $10,850 transfer from the Joshua Olin Scholarship fund to the Ashland County Community Foundation/Joshua Olin Scholarship Fund. The transfer motion was made by Mindy Scurlock, seconded by Kathy Goon, and carried unanimously.
On procurement, the board approved entering a contract through the Ohio Schools Council to purchase the Bonefish Systems accounts payable system for FY25 for fraud protection at a cost of $3,822.00. That motion was made by Mindy Scurlock and seconded by Vince Hartzler; the minutes record a unanimous vote in favor.
The board approved disposal of several athletic inventory items (24 padlocks and two softball pitching machines, one for scrap and one for parts-to-sell) and created a new fund, 019-920G, titled “Go Go Gadget Learning! Grant.” The motion to create the fund was made by ShaNa Benner, seconded by Kathy Goon, and passed with all members recorded as voting yes.
The board set its Organizational, Budget and Regular Meeting for Jan. 13, 2025, at 4:30 p.m. in the high school media center and appointed ShaNa Benner as president pro-tempore for that meeting (the appointment motion carried with Benner recorded as abstaining). The minutes do not record further discussion or public comment on these financial and procedural items.
What happens next: the board will meet Jan. 13, 2025, for its organizational and budget meeting; the minutes do not specify further implementation dates for the new fund or the accounts-payable system beyond the FY25 designation.
