An overview of topics on the agenda for tonight’s meeting.
The School Board will hold its regular monthly business meeting on Monday evening, beginning with a closed session at 5:30 p.m. to discuss personnel matters and consult with legal counsel.
The open session of the meeting includes a recognition of the monthly Student Leader in Action, a consent agenda with 10 items, and three action items.
Recognition
Hannah Lacy, a freshman at Spotsylvania High School, is the August Student Leaders in Action recipient. As an 8th grader, Hannah started her own business, Hannah’s Hot Vinyl and More, creating custom t-shirts, decals, cups, keychains, pens, and more—all while maintaining As and Bs in school. Hannah sells her creations at local craft shows and will have a table at the upcoming SCPS Student Market sponsored by the Massaponax High School Future Business Leaders of America on Saturday, October 5, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Massaponax High School.
Consent Agenda
Approval of minutes, donations, budget amendments, private road bus transportation applications, and change order to Spotsylvania Middle School renovation contract; renewal of group health insurance plan; approval of sole source contract for special education services; and reclassification of teaching positions to paraeducator positions “to support identified needs.”
Action Items
- Approval of Kelly Guempel, deputy superintendent and chief of schools, to be the superintendent’s designee to attend meetings and sign documents in absence of the superintendent.
- Approval (first read) of revisions to School Board policy DI and regulation DI-R (fiscal accounting and reporting). Revisions would add a grant fund and a textbook fund to the division’s existing authorized funds.
