Board accepts claims-auditor and personnel reports; wellness coordinator role noted
Summary
The board accepted the claims-auditor report (a New York State requirement) and approved personnel items, including keeping Katie Birch as the district wellness coordinator with responsibilities tied to the health co-op.
The claims-auditor report — described as a required role that reviews every payment and audits payroll — was presented and accepted by motion. Anita explained the claims auditor conducts a 100% payroll audit and spot checks invoices, and the board moved to accept the auditor's report for the 2025–26 school year.
On personnel, members discussed the wellness coordinator role. The chair said Katie Birch serves as the district's health teacher and regional wellness coordinator; the board noted that wellness activities (step challenges, gym passes) are paid from the health co-op and can reduce premiums. A motion to accept presented personnel changes and terminations was made and seconded and carried by voice vote.
