Morgan County Schools board approves consent agenda including procurement plan, personnel items and multiple contracts
Summary
The board approved a broad consent agenda covering procurement for child nutrition, service contracts (behavioral, interpreting), mini-grants, handbook and facility and construction change orders; most items passed unanimously. A motion to buy a 2026 Ford Explorer from Stivers Ford Lincoln failed for lack of a second.
The Morgan County Schools Board of Education approved a broad consent agenda that included the district's Procurement Plan for Child Nutrition for the 2026-27 school year, personnel items, multiple service agreements and several construction and facilities items. Most motions were approved unanimously after recorded motions and seconds.
The board approved the Procurement Plan for Child Nutrition Programs for the 2026-27 school year; the motion was recorded as moved by Hal Brooks and seconded, and the board voted to approve the plan. The board also approved the Morgan County Schools Library Media Guide for 2026, an agreement for applied behavior analysis services with Huntsville Behavior Associates, and a professional services agreement for sign-language interpreting services with K-Twelve Sign Language Interpreting Services LLC for 2026-27. The board authorized a 50/50 board-member mini-grant program with applications up to $7,500 per grant.
Facility and capital items approved included a change order for the Priceville High School baseball and softball complex with Game Day Athletic Services, a memorandum of understanding with the Priceville High School Band Boosters regarding concession-stand operations at Priceville Bulldog Stadium for 2026-27, and multiple change orders with Boyett Construction Company for HVAC improvements at Danville High School. The board also approved a facility-use agreement permitting Janice Slater and Terry Nelson to use the Priceville Junior High School gym for scheduled basketball skill sessions, and a proposal for surveying services (firm name transcribed in the record with uncertainty).
The board approved operational items including bid renewals for food services (including Domino's Pizza) and a produce bid for the 2026-27 school year, a quote for a storage/database system from 806 Technologies, Inc., and the Morgan County Schools employee handbook for 2026-27. The superintendent's personnel recommendations numbered 1 through 53 were moved and approved unanimously.
One item did not pass: a motion to approve contract #22000003128-3 with Stivers Ford Lincoln for a 2026 Ford Explorer did not receive a recorded second and the chair noted the motion did not carry as presented. The chair then proceeded to other consent items.
The chair later announced the need to go into an executive session and called on Mr. Zach to lead the legal certification required to proceed; Mr. Zach stated he is an attorney licensed in Alabama and certified the executive-session purpose before the transcript ends.
