Summary

Trustees approved a set of renewals and new contracts: a Willoughby virtual TVI contract ($107,250), a Kinship Academy nonpublic placement ($245,625), and several renewals/amendments for therapists and wellness services.

The board approved multiple contracts grouped on the agenda to ensure student services are in place for 2026–27. Items included a virtual teacher-of-the-blind contract (Willoughby TVI) not to exceed $107,250, a nonpublic-school placement renewal for one student at Kinship Academy ($245,625), and amendments to speech and occupational therapy contracts.

Staff explained the TVI arrangement pairs a virtual specialist with an on-site braille/vision-trained paraprofessional; trustees asked clarifying operational questions and were told the model supplements on-site support and has been used previously. The grouped items were approved by roll-call vote.
