Summary

Trustees approved most consent-agenda items Sept. 19, tabling three policy second readings; the board also approved a change order for TEA safety and security upgrades at Waco High School and recorded a recusal on a maintenance bid award.

The Waco ISD Board approved the bulk of a multi-item consent agenda on Sept. 19 after a motion to approve all items except three policy second readings (7.F, 7.G, 7.H). The motion to approve the consent agenda with those exceptions passed unanimously 7-0, and a separate motion to table the three policy second readings was approved 7-0.

The minutes record that Board member Keith Guillory recused himself from voting on item 7.D (Bid Award for Maintenance Supplies, Equipment, and Services); a motion on that bid (moved by Jeremy Davis, seconded by Jonathan Grant) passed 6-0 with Guillory recused. After discussion, trustees approved Change Order #2 for TEA Safety and Security Upgrades at Waco High School (motion by Jeremy Davis, seconded by Jose Vidana), which passed unanimously 7-0.

Other consent items listed in the minutes included bid awards for educational consultants and local retailers, approvals of change orders and minutes from prior meetings, T-TESS appraisers for 2024–25, action regarding the superintendent's resignation and emergent contract items, and authorization of selected teaching permits; the minutes list these items but do not provide detailed backup for every listed bid in the public minutes.
