Summary

The board moved to offer Dr. Barker a two-year contract from July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2027 that includes a $5,000-per-year increase; the motion was made by Miss Robinette, seconded by Mr. Rippa, and approved by voice vote according to the transcript.

During the meeting the board considered the superintendent's contract renewal. A committee member moved "to offer Dr. Barker a 2 year contract beginning 07/01/2025 to 06/30/2027, which will include a $5,000 a year pay increase," and the motion was announced in the transcript as being made by Miss Robinette.

The chair confirmed the motion and asked for a second; the transcript records the second by Mr. Rippa. The chair then asked for discussion, none was recorded, and members responded "aye" when the chair called for the vote. The transcript does not include a roll-call or numeric vote tally.

The motion as recorded would set the contract term from July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2027 and add $5,000 per year to the superintendent's pay for the duration of the term. The meeting then proceeded to announcements and adjournment; the next regular meeting was set for February 3, 2025.
