Summary

Board authorized purchase‑service agreements to host Junior Achievement programming (no cost) and to make space available to a Healthy Kids vendor for before/after‑school care paid by parents; the superintendent said neither agreement carries district costs.

The board approved motions to memorialize two purchase‑service agreements: one with Junior Achievement to provide curriculum and classroom support at no cost to the district, and another to allow a vendor called Healthy Kids to use district facilities for a parent‑paid before/after‑school program.

"And neither of these are any cost to the district, and they're both, I think, beneficial for families," Superintendent Sean said while recommending the agreements. He said Healthy Kids will be a vendor (parents pay directly) and may operate early morning through late afternoon hours if demand supports it.

Board members asked whether the Healthy Kids program might expand to an all‑day option; administrators said the vendor is new to Ohio and the district surveyed parents and found sufficient interest to proceed. The board approved the agreements by roll call.
