The Trousdale County School Board approved routine administrative items in the consent agenda and took several related financial votes.
By voice vote the board adopted the consent agenda, which included field-trip approvals and budget amendments discussed previously in a work session. Board members approved an adoption agreement to maintain compliance with IRS requirements for the district’s 403(b) retirement plan and to continue offering American Fidelity options for employees. Trustees also approved a modest concession price increase (for example, raising some ice-cream items from $0.75 to $1.00 with some items at $1.25) to offset higher distributor and delivery costs.
Administrators reported recent personnel changes (new hires and a resignation in food services) that were part of the consent packet and highlighted upcoming academic calendar dates and enrollment figures (1,331 students currently enrolled, down 25 from last year).
