On a motion by Jung, seconded by Trumbauer, the Jesup Community School District board on June 8 approved a comprehensive consent agenda that bundled multiple procurement items, contracts, personnel actions and student requests.

The motion passed under a unanimous "ALL AYE" voice vote. The minutes do not record extended discussion on these items; they were approved as a bundled consent action.
