Summary

The board approved curriculum items (with TeachTown added), agreement items on the consent agenda and regular meeting minutes; members questioned a prior round of 10 teacher nonrenewals and were told some positions were rehired after subsequent resignations created openings.

Committee members moved and seconded approval of curriculum items 7.1'7 (with TeachTown added to 7.1) and the consent agenda (items 8.1'8.12). "A motion by Heather and a 2nd by Varsha to approve the... consent agenda," the chair stated before members voted.

A board member asked how many teachers were nonrenewed this year; the superintendent responded "there were a total of 10, and we were able to hire back" some of those positions due to resignations that created openings. Members discussed timing and contractual deadlines for nonrenewal notices (March 15) and agreed to follow up as needed before final personnel actions.
