Summary

Trustees approved the consent agenda with one item removed for separate consideration, confirmed the hire of Aaron Herder, accepted a donation tied to elementary music mallets (donor identified in discussion as Southwire) with a recusal noted, and approved a routine resolution permitting temporary fund transfers to avoid negative June 30 balances.

At its June 10 meeting the Bremen Public Schools board approved the consent agenda with one item set aside for separate consideration, confirmed a new hire, accepted a donation to support elementary music mallets and approved a routine year‑end transfer resolution.

During the consent agenda discussion a board member asked to remove one item (referred to during the meeting as item '5 1') because the person involved is the direct report of that member; after recusal procedures were noted the board approved the remainder of the consent agenda by voice vote.

The board also confirmed the hire of Aaron Herder. The chair identified the hire by name during the consent votes.

For new business, the board entertained a motion to accept a donation described in meeting materials as '600' toward elementary school music mallets and moved to accept the gift. The chair noted that board member Huff is "intimately involved" in the South Fire project and would recuse himself from the vote; the motion carried by voice vote.

A district staff member then explained a housekeeping resolution allowing temporary transfers at fiscal year‑end so accounts do not show negative balances on June 30; the transfers are intended to be reversed in July. The board unanimously approved that resolution.

The board set its next meeting for Aug. 12 at the Central Office and adjourned.
