The staff contract sets new terms for several school employees for three years. The committee also authorized the district to seek longer-term copy-machine and WiFi contracts, with the goal of reducing service complexity and potentially lowering costs; the district’s WiFi system is scheduled for replacement next summer. A proposed student trip received preliminary approval, but final costs, itinerary, and chaperone details will return for review.
